-
And then.
-
There's such a great presence of the Lord industry.
-
Such a great presence, let me pray for you.
-
I saw.
-
In the rems of the spirit.
-
The Lord opened my eyes.
-
And I saw the projection against your finances.
-
And this is how they were going to work.
-
They were going to cause a conflict at work with
-
your superiors and some of your colleagues. It was going
-
to start like a little argument, and then they were
-
going to work it up the chain, and they were
-
going to work it to the point where it's like
-
you no longer have a job. And I saw the
-
enemy trying to cripple your finances.
-
That's why.
-
That's why, if you if it hasn't started happening yet,
-
that's why there have been.
-
Some conflicts at work, some.
-
Conflicts at WAK, some conflicts.
-
At WAK, because that.
-
Is the protection of the enemy.
-
But I hear by.
-
Cancel that protection, I set you free from it. I
-
degree and declare that instead of your demise, let them
-
be a promotion.
-
Let them be a promotion.
-
Let them be a promotion.
-
Let them be a promotion on your job, in your
-
financial life. Be a promotion and divine promotion in the
-
name of Jesus. Now, I degree, and I declare, instead
-
of your shame, instead of your demise, receive upliftments, receive appliftments,
-
receive upliftman, receive upliftments. For the Bible says a tree
-
that is cut down under scent of water, you shall.
-
Spring up again anywhere you were cut down. I decree
-
and I declare.
-
Spring up again, spring up again, spread up again, spring
-
up again.
-
In the name of.
-
Life.
-
I call it that.
-
In Jesus name, Amen.
-
I promise over your life. Affliction will not count this
-
again time.
-
I degree, and I declare that any.
-
Any sort of affliction that wants to rise up this time,
-
at this time around that soone is cut off or
-
you're not saying it like you believes. You know a
-
very interesting thing about the prophetic business. When you are
-
praying for somebody else, any area of your life that
-
is affected by the same thing, family members, loved ones
-
that are affected by the same thing that you may
-
not know off.
-
Once you start praying for that.
-
Person, God automatically starts dealing with it in your life.
-
So as we were praying for sae Quekhu about his
-
job and his finances, it means that if you lack
-
a job, or if you are struggling with your finances,
-
the very second you began praying for him, God Star,
-
they're correcting your financial and your job situation.
-
So when it comes.
-
To the prophetic, please take it very seriously. I don't
-
have to you see, those those are gimmicks of the prophetic.
-
I've been a prophet for too long to work with gimmicks, gimmicks.
-
I don't like the gimmicks of the prophetic.
-
As a matter of fact, that is what is spoiling
-
the prophetic.
-
Ministry, the gimmicks of it.
-
When I have to say that, when I have to
-
mention your phone number and I have to say I
-
saw your house. And God does use me that way.
-
God takes me to different countries. Like I'm standing here,
-
I can be in Nigeria, I can be in America,
-
I can be in Australia. God can be showing me things.
-
But unless it.
-
Is needed, those are all gimmicks. People need solutions. Go
-
straight to the points and get them their solution to you.
-
And as a matter of fact, that is what will
-
increase your prophetic ability. When God sees that it's not
-
about you or it's not about how deep you can
-
make yourself see and you want to just get people
-
their solution. God trusts you with a deeper level of insight.
-
God trusts you with a deeper level of insight. Affliction
-
will not come the second time we cancel it.
-
We decree and declared that this time it passes you
-
by with degree.
-
And declared that this.
-
Time it passes you by with degree, and declared.
-
That this time around you shall not find in the
-
name of degree.
-
And declared that you are present, you are covid, you.
-
Are secure my degree.
-
And declare that let fruits.
-
Be given on fruits, fruits, fruits, fruits, suits, Let fruits
-
be given on you. Begin to bare fruits in the.
-
Name of Jesus.
-
Begin to bare fruits in the name of Jesus.
-
In Jesus' name. Ahmed, help her go please. I think.
-
I think that when we're moving to our new building,
-
will start having perfectic services where where we will come
-
will have praisen worship. Because I can't prophesy without preaching.
-
I'll preach for just a few minutes, then will open
-
the worlds of the prophetic and minister to about as
-
many people as we can.
-
Minister to.
-
My lady, I declare over your life that the battle
-
is coming to an end. I declare by your life.
-
And the battle is coming to an end every battle
-
that is on.
-
Boy, that it seems like the enemy.
-
Has the upper hand. I declare over you and the
-
ba is coming by Natorial.
-
You are blessed. You are blessed God, bless.
-
Amen.
-
All right, just before you are seated, I would like
-
us to give one or to one nights due our
-
head pastor Eminence, the Archbishop Nicholas Kankan Williams. Are you clapping?
-
Are you shouting? Are you giving God a praise?
-
Come on that clap it? Shall I give God a praise?
-
Listen at.
-
Our next Gene church.
-
We love our pastor, we love our personal.
-
And our next gen church.
-
We are proud to be next gen members. Look at
-
it and say I'm proud to be a next gen member.
-
Say like you say, I'm proud to be a next
-
gen member. Look at Neby. I tell them this is
-
the church. This is where it's happening. Look at nehboy said,
-
this is the church. This is where it's happening in
-
Jesus' name. Amen, are you clapping and.
-
Giving God all.
-
Right, you made me see there and have any places
-
I have just about.
-
I have just about twenty minutes to preach, but I'll
-
preach two hundred hours. My goodness, more done, more done, man,
-
more damn for this come Jerma thirty one and seventeen NLT.
-
Jerrema thirty one seventeen NLT. I began with this scripture
-
last week as my Ancle scripture and the Bible says,
-
there is hope for your future. Jerma thirty one seventeen.
-
There is hope for your future, says the loan. Look
-
at your neighbor and tell your neighbors say there is
-
hope for your future. Last week I began with Mariam
-
Webster's dictionary, defining hope as to cherish a desire with
-
anticipation to make something happen. And then out of the
-
Baker's Evangelical Dictionary, we know that hope is to try
-
us in, to wait for desire something, to expect something
-
beneficial in the future. Look at a neighbor and say
-
in the future, it's never is always important that you
-
remember hope and future, hope and future. Hope and future.
-
Future and hope goes together anything that you are doing
-
now is to determine your future. And it's hope that
-
keeps your future alife. Turn your neighbor and tell them,
-
hope keeps your future alife. And I, your bishop, I
-
say that hope is the expectation of something that is
-
yet to come. Now, turn your bibles with me to
-
Job fourteen and verse seven.
-
King James version.
-
For the Bible declares that there is hope for a tree,
-
if it be cut down, that it will sprout again,
-
and that the tender branch thereof will not cease. Why
-
is the scripture not on the screen? Job fourteen and seven,
-
King James version. Yes, but there is hope of a tree,
-
if it be cut down, that it will sprout again.
-
Now this means listen to this. Listen to this. Usually
-
usually if there is a tree and you cut it,
-
it doesn't grow again. If there's a tree and you
-
cut it, usually that tree, Joe, it comes to fine.
-
A seat in the front.
-
Usually the tree is cut down permanent, it stays down.
-
But the Bible is saying. The Bible is saying that
-
ask for the believer, Ask for the believer. If you've
-
been cut before, if you've bled before, if you've been
-
in pain before, if you've been hit before, if you
-
have been sudding before, if you have been traumatized before,
-
if you have been stigmatized before, if your brothers and
-
your sisters have forsaken you, and they're the same ones
-
who now start talking about you and spreading rumors and
-
lies about you, don't be worried about it, because you
-
surely spring.
-
Back up again. Now.
-
Now, this is a very prophetic scripture because it tells
-
us that there's no place you get to in God,
-
that your life is over. There's no place you get
-
to in God, that there's no hope for you in God.
-
There's no place you get to in God, that God
-
has forgotten about you, or God has forsaken you. Look
-
at you, neighbor, and tell them God has neither forgotten
-
nor forsaken you. He's with you always. Say it like
-
you mean to say, He's with you always? Can you
-
say it with some authority? Say He's with you always? Amen,
-
He's with you always? Now Jeremiah twenty nine and verse eleven,
-
n IVY, the Bible says, for I know the thoughts
-
and the plans I have for you, declares the Lord
-
plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans
-
to give you.
-
Hope and the future.
-
It's important you understand that anything that harms you is
-
not of God, and God will surely see you out
-
of it. So if you are in a relationship and
-
that relationship keeps harming you, please you don't need your
-
bishop or your actshop or a prophet to come and
-
tell you that this relationship is not for you. If
-
you keep getting heads, if you keep being harmed, it
-
means God didn't put it together. God didn't bring it together.
-
It means you brought it together. And it's a prophetic
-
indication that it's time to get you out of that relationship.
-
And what am I talking about because in people's minds,
-
heysham Jo asked that if they are harming you, are
-
hating you. So this one, it means if they are
-
biting me, no, no, no, no no. If your Christian
-
life is at stake because you are dating somebody, is
-
the wrong relationship for you? Is the wrong relationship for you.
-
It's the wrong relationship for you because no mortal man
-
born of a woman, or no mortal woman born of
-
a woman, is above God. So if you are dating
-
somebody and your Christian life is now at stake because
-
of that person. It means it's time to cut the
-
person off. Is either Jesus or it's the person. And
-
what betide you if you cut off Jesus for that person.
-
My my, my wife asked me one day, she said
-
who would you love the most? She said, yeah, she said,
-
she said, she said who do you love the most?
-
And I said first, Jesus second? His eminence ted you
-
and and she became very sad. And she said, I
-
thought I'll be first, and I said, no, no, here, Yeah,
-
Jesus is first, his evidence is second, and you come ted.
-
Nobody should put your Christian life in Japan. Nobody to
-
put your future is in the hands of God. Your
-
future is not in the hands of that boy or
-
that girl. And can I tell you something And this
-
is but this is not even prophetic, This is just
-
by experience.
-
Listen to me.
-
In two or three years, you and that person may
-
not be talking to each other anymore. You may be
-
sworn enemies and you will never see each other in
-
this life again.
-
To the day you die, Ala, you will not.
-
You will not. You will not.
-
Most relationships you have in high school right now, when
-
I say when I.
-
Say when I say.
-
When I say, when I say relationship, when I say relationships,
-
I'm even talking about friendships. Most of their friendships, not
-
if your relationship. I haven't coming to relationship. Most of
-
their friendships you have in high school now, you will
-
not have them in ten years to come up. You'll
-
see that by the time you finish high school and
-
you go to university, you will be surrounded with a
-
different group of people.
-
Your high school.
-
People who begin to fade out, and your university people
-
who begin to fade in. By the time you are
-
finishing university and you are getting into the working world,
-
most of the people you knew in university will begin
-
to fade out, and the working world will begin to
-
fade in. Don't give up on God for a relationship
-
or for a friendship. The Bible says, He's a friend
-
that's ticket closer.
-
Than a brother.
-
Now, Second Corinthians, Chapter two and verse forty. In the
-
message translation, okay, it should start with when I arrived,
-
but oh sorry, I'm supposed to. I should have said
-
two twelve, thank you so much for being excuse God
-
blessing when I arrived in Charros to proclaim the message
-
of the Messiah. I found the place wide open. God
-
had opened the door on God had opened the door.
-
All I had to do was walk through it.
-
Please listen to this when it comes to hope. They
-
are certain corresponding things that God needs to do for
-
you to maintain your hope. And one of the things
-
that he does is that he opens doors. One of
-
the things that he does is that he opens doors.
-
So he said, when I arrived, please put the scripture back.
-
He said, when I arrived, please put the scripture back.
-
He said, when when I got there to proclaim the
-
message of the Messiah, I found the place wide open.
-
Canna announced you that this week you are going to
-
walk into some.
-
Wide open doors.
-
Canna announced you that this month you are going to
-
walk into some wide open doors.
-
Kannah announced you that this year you are going to
-
walk into some wide open doors. As a matter of fact,
-
twenty twenty five is why open doors for your life.
-
I see you walking into doors of victory, tours of promotion,
-
doors of blessing, those of inhabitants, terms of financial testimony,
-
close of new jobs, terms of federal education. If you
-
believe in prophecies, say I believe it. Prophesie, say I
-
believe it. Prophesie, say I believe it.
-
Believe places.
-
You have to Prophesye, you have to prophesy these things
-
into existence. You must prophesy these things into existence. It
-
doesn't just have been telling anybody. You have to be prophesies. Yeah,
-
you've got to prophesy. You've got to prophesie. Let me
-
jump to a scripture and then come back second second
-
Corinthians to twelve.
-
I don't show you a se.
-
Some forty two and eleven King James version some forty
-
two and eleven King James version. The Bible says, why
-
hast thou cast down, Oh my soul?
-
And why art thou disquieted? Within me? Up thou in God?
-
For I shall yet praise Him who is the health
-
of my countenance? And My God? Can we bring it together? One?
-
Two three?
-
God, Now please listen to this. Why a dou cast down,
-
Oh my soul? Why a dou disquieted with him helping God?
-
For I shall yet praise Him, who is the health
-
of my countenance? What is countenance? What is countenance? Countenance
-
is like your facial expression or how you walk around,
-
or how you look, how you look. So If God
-
is the health of your countenance, it means that God
-
always wants you looking happy, looking good, smiling, For I
-
know the thoughts I have of you. For I know
-
the thoughts I have of you. Plans to prosper you,
-
plans to give you hope and a future. So if
-
God is the health of your countenance, then it means
-
that your countenance can never be down. So this scripture
-
is a contradiction. This scripture is a contradiction. And not
-
is it just a contradiction, but this scripture answers itself.
-
In the same scripture, it says, why art thou cast
-
down all my soul? And why art thou disquieted with me?
-
Hope thou in God, for I shall yet praise Him.
-
So their answer to your soul being down or your
-
soul being disquieted is praising God. When you begin to praise,
-
and you push past the pain, and you push as
-
the heads, and you push past the bleeding, and you
-
push past this, and you push past.
-
That, you you you will you, you will.
-
See that the despair, the sadness, the disquietedness, the cast
-
downness will all disappear, and God will come alive in
-
your life.
-
God will come alive in your life.
-
It's not about how many things you have been through.
-
It's about how many things He brought you out of.
-
No, no, no, you didn't hear what I said.
-
It's not about how many things you have been through.
-
It's about how many things He has brought you out of.
-
You can go through.
-
Things every day as long as He brings you out
-
of it. As long as he brings you out of it,
-
you can.
-
Go through it.
-
Go through it, go through it, go through it, go
-
through it, go through it. But guess what, He keeps
-
bringing you out. He keeps bringing you out. He keeps
-
bringing you out. He keeps bringing you out. He keeps
-
bringing you out. You go through the fire of health
-
crisis today, but he brought you out. You go through
-
the fire of fire in your finances today, but he
-
brought you out. You go through the fire of losing
-
your job today, but he brought you out. You go
-
through the fire of having marital crisis, but he brought
-
you out. You go through the fire of financial turbulence, but.
-
He brings you out.
-
You go through the fire of losing your hope in him, but.
-
He brings you out. It's not what you are suffering.
-
It's what he has brought you.
-
Look at your neighbor and tell them it's what he
-
has brought you out of. Say like you mean it's
-
say is what he has brought you out of? Can
-
you say it like you're prophesying? Say is what he
-
brought you out of? Now let's go back to Second
-
Corinthians two twelve, and now I'm reading from the NLT translation,
-
the NLT translation. When I came to the city of
-
Trials to preach the good news of Christ, the Lord
-
opened a door of opportunity for me. I see a
-
door of opportunity being open for you. No, no, no,
-
your amen is je I said, I say, Oh, should I.
-
Go a little bit deeper?
-
I said, I see a door of opportunity and it
-
has your name on it. I see a door of
-
opportunity and it has your name on it. And guess
-
what's The new job you are looking for is in
-
that door. The new blessing you are looking for is
-
in that door. Your marriage is in that door, your
-
children are in that door, your breakthroughs in that door,
-
your testimony is in that door, your finances are in
-
that door. Your health is in that door. Your testimony
-
is in that door. Your next blessing is in that door.
-
If you believe it, chall and say yes, Lord said,
-
my testimony is in that door.
-
You who wants me to preach this money.
-
Listen to this, Listen to this.
-
Now go to fourteen. Go to fourteen. And I got it.
-
Thank God in the Messiah, in Christ, God led us
-
from place to place in one perpetual victory parade. No,
-
I'm looking for MV not MSG MeV. No, we're actually
-
even on nalty, is it not? We are on a nalty,
-
we're analty. Yeah, but thank God, he has made us
-
his captives and continues to lead us along in christ
-
triumphal possession. Now he uses us to spread the knowledge
-
of Christ everywhere like a sweet perfume.
-
Please please listen to this. Please listen to this. Please
-
listen to this.
-
He has made us his captives and continues to lead
-
us along in christ triumph found procession. Every procession has
-
weigh points, Every procession has stops.
-
You get to and it says that. It says that.
-
Now go to MSG.
-
Look at what MSG said, Look at what MHG said.
-
He said, he said, And I thank God who leads
-
us from place to place.
-
Listen, who leads us from place to place.
-
In one perpetual victory parade.
-
It means that your life is a life of victory.
-
It means that your life is a life of victory.
-
It means that you.
-
Will not feel, you cannot feel, and you shall not feel.
-
You will not feel, you cannot feel, and.
-
You shall not feel.
-
He's leading you.
-
In one perpetual victory parade. Your life is a victory parade.
-
That means any time you get to a place where
-
you feel like God has lost it, God has forgotten you,
-
just get ready for a victory. I said, just get
-
ready for a victory, because this Christian life you are living,
-
He's leading you on a triumpher parade, a procession from.
-
Victory to victory, to victory, to victory to victory.
-
To victory to victory. Look at you, Nember, I tell him,
-
I'm moving from victory to victory, saying like you mean it,
-
say I'm moving from.
-
Victory to victory. Wow. Now now please go tom EV,
-
Please go to m e V. Please go to m
-
e V.
-
E. It should have been it came up in the
-
first SACEV. My time is going meavy watch this our
-
way till they heaven.
-
Watch this.
-
Everywhere we go we breathe in the exquisite fragrance. The
-
other verse said, he uses us to spread his knowledge
-
like a sweet purfuw Now watch this, watch this. The
-
Bible says God is building his church and the gates
-
of hell cannot prevail. And the same Bible is telling
-
us that God is using you to spread the knowledge
-
of Him like a sweet perfume. It means that the
-
corresponding grace, the corresponding strength, the corresponding tenacity, the corresponding finances,
-
the corresponding ability, the corresponding wisdom you need to proclaim
-
his knowledge.
-
You will have it.
-
Then. Second of all, it means that you will not fail.
-
It means that you will not fail because God Jesus
-
Christ came to this head for thirty years. He did
-
ministry for three years, and then he died on the
-
cross thirty three years. He came and gave his life
-
for thirty three years for the forwarding of the gospel.
-
He's too serious about the gospel to let the gospel feel.
-
It means that if you are a vessel he's using.
-
He is too serious about you spreading the gospel to
-
let you feel.
-
He's too serious.
-
You cannot fail. You cannot feel. That is why next
-
game church cannot fail. Church cannot feel.
-
That is why next gen church members cannot We are
-
about only.
-
We are victorious only because Jesus is leading us. Jesus
-
is leading us.
-
I said, Jesus is leading us. I said, Jesus is
-
leading us. Shout and say, Jesus, you may be seen.
-
In heavily places.
-
Now, Thanks be to God always, who always causes us
-
to trial in Christ and through us reveals the fragrance
-
of his knowledge in every place. Now, thanks be to
-
God who always causes us to trial. Can I announce
-
