  1. And so in the past week, the past few weeks, I've been speaking

  2. to you about open doors, open doors. And by the inspiration of the

  3. Holy Spirit of Father, the Archbishop has declared he declared Impact. The theme

  4. of Impact to be open doors. And the theme for the coming year is

  5. open doors. Amen. And so if you know anything about doors, you

  6. know that doors give access. Doors give access. How many of you have

  7. walked through a door since this morning? You've walked through some door. Amen.

  8. Even before you came to the Youth Church, you walk through a door.

  9. So the door gives you access into the youth Church. Just imagine if

  10. you got here and you had us praising God in here, but the door

  11. was locked, you'll be stuck out. He means access denied. Amen.

  12. And as children of God. According to Revelation, chapter three, verse seven,

  13. the Bible says that God has set before us an open door that no

  14. one can shut because of our works. We spoke about good waks now in

  15. order for us to walk through that open door. The message God gave me

  16. to tell you is that the only way we can walk through that door,

  17. that open door, is by with humility. Outside of humility, we will

  18. not be able to walk through that open door. Amen? How many of

  19. you know that many doors have keys that unlocks or locks them. Many doors,

  20. unless, of course, the door is not guarding something that is precious.

  21. Any door that gods, anything that is precious, has a lock.

  22. Even prison doors have locks because there's pressureus car go there. They don't want

  23. them to run away, so they have to lock them inside. I hope

  24. you understand. And so a key gives you access to the door. There

  25. are physical keys that open doors. This key is to my house. It's

  26. the kitchen. Door opens to the kitchen. We can't go inside. If

  27. I lose this key, access denied. Do you understand this key unlocks my

  28. car. If I lose this key, I can go home. The car

  29. will be here. This key starts the car. It gives access. I

  30. hope you understand. And so any door you come to that you don't have

  31. the key to open, you don't have access to go through the door.

  32. Can I hear an? Amen? If you understand what I'm saying, If

  33. you understand the English I'm speaking, say a better Amen. If you don't

  34. understand the English I'm saying, say hey, all those you don't understand English

  35. I'm speaking give the a lot away. Let us help you. Oh,

  36. I had some a bar not seeing some hands. Amen. I had some

  37. a barbon not seeing some hands. Let's wait for our brothers and sisters to

  38. sit down comfortably and they will continue. Amen. Oh Amen, are we

  39. still in church? I can only hear those Yeah, all of you here?

  40. What are you not in church? You are in church? I said,

  41. Amen. So keys give access to be able to walk through doors.

  42. Amen. And one of the keys that God wants us to know and to

  43. learn for us to be able to walk through our open door to destiny is

  44. with the key of human Please say the key of humility. Amen. A

  45. few weeks back, I was speaking to you about those who are proud,

  46. and we did some experiments that if you asked the person seated by you are

  47. you proud? There are three answers you should expect. The first one is

  48. no, The first one is yes, The second one is yes. The

  49. third one is no answer. Amen. And it's a littlemos test to test

  50. us if we are proud or we are humble. Amen. So how about

  51. we try it. Please ask your neighbors seated by you, are you proud?

  52. Did they say yes? Well, please ask them again, are you

  53. proud? Was there an answer? There was an answer? The answer was

  54. no, right, okay? Some to did the answer. Some did the

  55. answer. If you as ever someone who the answer, give me a wave.

  56. He is that one. They're no answer is also a sign that you

  57. are actually proud. So you are now contemplating am I proud or I am

  58. not proud? You understand. But if you are not proud, you willingly

  59. say I am not proud. Amen. And so we are looking at the

  60. key of humility for this season in order to walk through our open doors of

  61. destiny. Amen. How many of you want God to help you to walk

  62. into your destiny? Is he? Throughout scripture God has helped many people to

  63. walk into their destiny. One person God helped greatly to walk through his destiny

  64. into the door of his destiny was David. David was a shepherd, He

  65. was a full any boy. Do you understand he was the last baby in

  66. the family, but he was treated like a servant. Do you understand last

  67. babies are usually loved by their parents. Who are how many of your last

  68. babies here? Are you not loved by your parents? You get everything you

  69. want? You are last baby, at least you've enjoyed life. Small,

  70. Yes, you haven't enjoyed life. You've enjoyed life. But I see David

  71. when he was thirteen years old, he was made to go and be a

  72. shepherd of a sheep. And he was in the desert while his brothers were

  73. chilling at home watching DStv epl His friends were mad. He was saying,

  74. hey, you was a shepherd in sheep. But guess what. He is

  75. a guy that God helped and by the time the doors of his destiny were

  76. open to him, he became a king over Israel. Amen. So let

  77. me ask the question again. Is there anyone here who wants God to help

  78. them to walk through their doors of destiny? Amen? Then if you are

  79. such a person, then the key you need to be able to walk through

  80. your door of destiny is with the key of humility. Amen. Please tell

  81. your neighbor the key of humility is the secret for access to the open door.

  82. Amen. Let's look at Matthew chapter eighteen, verse three. Matthew chapter

  83. eighteen vers three as our foundation scripture. Amen. And he said assuredly,

  84. I say to you, unless you are converted and become like a little child

  85. or little children, you will by no means enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.

  86. Amen. Therefore, whoever humbles, let's look at Therefore, whoever humbles

  87. himself as this little child is greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven. Amen.

  88. Little children are very humble. If they're in their ideal condition, they are

  89. very humble, unless, of course, there's somebody proud and they learn pride

  90. from that person. Then you can see a little child being very arrogant.

  91. But if you're in the right setting, little children by nature or humble.

  92. And Jesus is telling us that unless we humble ourselves and become like little children,

  93. we cannot enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. Amen. Why was he

  94. saying that? Because humility is the key that opens doors. Amen. And

  95. so today I want to tell you why humility is a key. Why humility

  96. is a key. So number one reason why humility is a key is that

  97. humility opens the door to salvation. Romance, Chapter one, verse sixteen.

  98. Humility opens the door to salvation. How many of you know someone who is

  99. not born again? They don't know Jesus, they're not Christians. Amen.

  100. How many of you know reasons why they are not born again? Can someone

  101. tell us one reason why they are not born again? Yes, they are

  102. Muslims. Yes, why are your friends not born again? Dan used to

  103. go into church? Okay? Who else? Yes? They don't believe in

  104. Christ and they don't believe in religion. Yes, Harrison, they think church

  105. is a fraud. Yes, he asked God for a bicycle and God didn't

  106. give him, so he won't come to Yes. Who else he's a Muslim?

  107. Yes? Who else? Chitty? They are not interested in being in

  108. a religion or being a Christian. They have no interest. But I see

  109. when you consider truly and you weigh them in a balance, you realize that

  110. they are in one religion or another without their knowledge, so they can be

  111. a member of a foot ball club. How many of you know that football

  112. is a religion? You don't know? Yes, football is a religion.

  113. Anything you love with your hat, with your whole hat, with your whole

  114. soul, with your whole might, is a religion. How many of you

  115. love your team with your whole heart? Please lift your hand and shame the

  116. devil. We know you love your team. When your team dies, call

  117. you, you eat because your heart is broken. Do you understand? And

  118. so there are many people who have not yet had access to the door of

  119. salvation because they are not humble enough. Romance, Chapter one, the sixteen.

  120. The Bible says, for I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ,

  121. for it is the power of God to salvation for anyone who believes.

  122. And so there are many people who are not Christians. They are not born

  123. again, and the outcome of their lives is that they will end up in

  124. hell because they have not come to the humility to believe in Christ Jesus as

  125. Lord. Do you know there are many people in Israel today who don't believe

  126. in Jesus Christ. But what is the Bible saying. It says that I

  127. am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ Jesus, for it is the power

  128. of God to salvation for anyone who believes. For the jew first, and

  129. also for the Greek next verse seventeen. For in it the righteousness of God

  130. is revealed from faith to faith. The righteousness of God is revealed in the

  131. Gospel, from faith to faith. Amen. Yesterday some of our brothers and

  132. sisters got baptized. How how many were baptized who are in church today?

  133. Please stand on your feet, Amen, Let's clap my hands for them.

  134. Amen. Congratulations, you have fulfilled or righteousness. All right, Your certificates

  135. are ready. When we close from church, just go to the information desk

  136. and pick it up. Amen. You are now a disciple of Jesus Christ.

  137. Amen, please be seated. So the key to salvation unlocks many benefits

  138. of salvation. Who can tell me one benefit of salvation? Yes? Sorry,

  139. Walking with the Holy Spirit. The gift of the Holy Spirit is a

  140. benefit of salvation, yes, Harrison. It opens doors. What type of

  141. dose doors to grace? Yes? Who else can tell me one benefit of

  142. salvation? Yes? The gift of eternal life, because you receive the nature

  143. of God in you, and the nature of God is eternal. God cannot

  144. die. So God gives you his spirit, which cannot die. You receive

  145. the gift of justification, Amen, the gift of redemption, the gift of

  146. sanctification, the gift of newness of life. You become brand new. So

  147. the Bible says that behold, all things have passed away, all things have

  148. become new. You receive newness of life in Christ Jesus. But if you

  149. are not humble enough to receive the gospel, which is a key to salvation,

  150. you cannot be a beneficiary of all the blessings and the benefits of salvation.

  151. Do you understand what I'm saying? So, humility number one is the

  152. key that unlocks the door to salvation. Is the door, It's the key.

  153. Somebody says he wanted a bicycle when he was two years old. Is

  154. Jesus Christ a bicycle repairer? So because he didn't get a bicycle, he

  155. doesn't believe it's a sign of pride. Amen. And one thing I need

  156. you to know is that God will not give you what you want all the

  157. time. God will always give you what you need. Amen. God will

  158. give you what you need, not what you want all the time. So

  159. perhaps God didn't give him the bicycle because he would have loved the bicycle so

  160. much. He would have ridden a bicycle where she didn't go and a baller

  161. cow would have hit him. So God has preserved his life by not giving

  162. him a bicycle. Amen. Some of you want I from fifteen. If

  163. you don't get eye from fifteen, he say, I'm come to change again.

  164. God is preserving your life so that you'll be online all the time for

  165. some pido file to start engaging you and talking nonsense to you. Amen.

  166. So the first reason why humility is a key is that humility on locks to

  167. us the door of salvation. Amen. Aren't you happy being a child of

  168. God? Are you sure you're excited being a child of God? Without the

  169. Gospel, you would not be a child of God without believing in Christ Jesus,

  170. you will not be a child of God without humbling yourself to receive the

  171. Gospel, for it to work on you, for it, for you to

  172. believe in it, you will not be a child of God. Amen.

  173. One parent came to see me today with a testimony that her daughter now has

  174. been doing quiet time. Shout outs to all those who do quiet time,

  175. amen, And that when she does quiet time she can come and explain the

  176. word of God to her. It wets out, baffles her mind, like,

  177. is this my daughter, pa, who can explain the word of God

  178. to me this way? And a daughter is in the choir, she's the

  179. first of a schoir. Oh yes, So shout out to all of you

  180. who are not having quiet time. Amen. And she says, when she's

  181. home and she's singing and she's worshiping, everybody is touched. Amen. When

  182. she raises her song. I love you for your mercies never failed. Before

  183. you know it. Everybody is singing in the house. That is the effects

  184. of how fast she is come with God. Amen. And so we need

  185. humility to be able to open the door of salvation. Can I hear an

  186. amen? Amen? Job Chapter twenty two, verse twenty nine. Job Chaupter

  187. twenty two versus twenty nine. When they are cast down, you will say,

  188. exaltation has come. Let's look at the King James version. So when

  189. there is a casting down, then shall we say there is a lifting up?

  190. And he shall say the humble person when there is a casting down,

  191. when all men are cast down, because you have unlocked with humility and received

  192. the Gospel of Jesus, have become born again. It doesn't matter if thousands

  193. are falling by your side or ten thousands are falling by your side. You

  194. are bold to say that when men are cast down, there is a lifting

  195. up because God shall save the humble person. Amen. And So if you

  196. don't want God to save you, then you know what to do. You

  197. can't continue being proud. But if you need God to save you, you

  198. need a saving grace of God for your life. Then the key to being

  199. saved is humility? Can I hear an amen? Number two reason why humility

  200. is a key that opens doors is that it opens the door to healing.

  201. Humility opens the door to healing. Second Chronicles, Chapter seven, verse fourteen,

  202. Second Chronicles, seven fourteen. And this is God's speaking. It says,

  203. if my people are the people of God in church today, some of

  204. you don't know you other people of God, I said, other people of

  205. God in church today. If my people who are called by my name,

  206. are you called by the name of God? If my people who are called

  207. by my name shall humble themselves, shall what humble them? It means that

  208. nobody's going to humble. You have to humble yourself. Please tell your neighbor

  209. you are responsible for humbling your own self. Do you understand? If my

  210. people who are called by my name shall humble themselves and pray and seek my

  211. face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and

  212. forgive their sins and will heal their land. So humility is a key that

  213. opens the door to healing. Amen. So perhaps you have decided you humble

  214. yourself, But you are very loud. You are prayer fool everybody knows you.

  215. You are Copapa Kappa lay Papa Papa. We'll talk about prayer. You

  216. are part of it, but you are forgotten the first but humble yourself and

  217. you stay only in prayer, Praga talk about pscapate wit bay. You can

  218. pray, but you, because you lack humility, you can't even seek the

  219. face of God. And so if we ask you as the last time you

  220. heard the voice of God, we don't know. Never. It has never

  221. happened. Amen. And because you lack the ability to be humble and to

  222. pray with humility, you are still living in sin. You are not turning

  223. away from your wicked ways. You are still doing the bad things, the

  224. wrong things. You pray more than everybody, You hate everybody. You are

  225. divisive more than anybody. You have hatred in your heart. You are not

  226. kind, you don't love, you don't show messy. The only thing we

  227. know you for is that you can pray. That's all. You don't have

  228. the nature of God in you. Because you lack humility, that will lead

  229. all the other things to happen for you. Amen. And so because you

  230. lack humility, you are sinning, and you are piloting your sinner, and

  231. there is no forgiveness of sin, is no healing in your life. But

  232. if my people, says the Lord, who are called by my name,

  233. shall humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways,

  234. then will I hear. So it goes to reason that there are many

  235. people who are praying, but God is not hearing. So another key you

  236. can write down is that humility opens the door to ansert prayers. Humility opens

  237. the door to anset prayers. Humility opens the door to forgiveness of sins.

  238. Humility opens the door to healing. Amen Second King, chapter five was one

  239. to five talks about a very interesting story about a man called nay Man who

  240. was the captain of the host of Syria. He was a captain of an

  241. army. He was a great man with his master. He was honorable because

  242. by him the Lord had given deliverance on to Syria. And he was a

  243. mighty man in Falla. He was a mighty man who excelled in battle.

  244. But guess what he was a leper. He was suffering from leprosy. How

  245. many of you know what leprosy is. Please, let's do the picture of

  246. what leprosy is leprosy? Do we have the picture apart from all his credentials

  247. that he was a mighty man. He was a mighty man in valor,

  248. He was a captain of an army. All that was good, but he

  249. was lepros. He was lepros. And the Bible says that he had suffered

  250. leprosy for a long time, and he had gone to many doctors. They

  251. couldn't heal him. But there was a maid in the house, a servant

  252. who said, I know of a prophet. His name is Elisha, Prophet

  253. Elisha. Perhaps you can go to him and he can probably bring healing to

  254. you. So the man agreed and he took his car. If it was

  255. this day, you have mutal kid and there'llbviates like twenty v eight were going

  256. people paper or papal to where Prophet Elisha was. And because he's a great

  257. man, he probably thought that they would lay red carpets for him and to

  258. have you know those children who come and dance at door, and then they

  259. have the flowers and come and give him a kiss. You're welcome. That's

  260. how his hands looked like. His hands were like this. He was lepros.

  261. All right, let's go to the scripture again. But before he got

  262. there, the prophet told his sevants that go and meets the man. Meets

  263. this great man and tell him that he should go and jump into the river

  264. Jordan. Seven times he said, go and jump when you going, No,

  265. just jump one, two, three, do some assaults four. Seven

  266. times. The man got offended because he was he was a big man.

  267. He was proud to understand, and he was about to turn his motal kaid

  268. around and go back to Syria. But the little girl said to him,

  269. master, you've come all this while, why don't you just do this and

  270. let's see pay adventure. So he said, okay, okay, you out

  271. do it. So then he removed all his military things with his boxes,

  272. and then he said, okay, let me behave like a child. So

  273. you come and stand here, you do this on, then you come out.

  274. Then you do two, then three, Then he started laughing, haha,

  275. four like a child, humility, humble like a child. Then he

  276. does into it. Five. Then he won't come there and shake himself and

  277. go six. I'm sure he'd been forgot's Actually that thing is seven times when

  278. he went in the seventh time and he was coming out. He was looking

  279. forward to going again when he realized, Ah, the leprosy was gone.

  280. His hands were made home. Amen. He had been healed of leprosy because

  281. of humility. Amen. But how many of you here would have been in

  282. this man's office and they will see go and jump into day they you're done

  283. like a child, and you would have done it. Not many people would

  284. have done it. Amen. Imagine you have come in your v eight and

  285. they say that there's some gota water be there. Just jump inside seven times

  286. so the leprosy will go. Meanwhile, you in your house, you have

  287. swimming pool, heat ted swimming pool. You understand, you've got jacuzzi in

  288. your bathroom, your bat with milk and oil. And they say, no,

  289. jump into this brown water so that the leprosy will go. If you

  290. don't have humility, you go back home with your leprosy. Amen. And

  291. so you see there are men, many people who are walking on earth.

  292. They are okay, they look fine, but in the spirit they are lepros

  293. because of pride. But with the key of humility, you will be able

  294. to unlock and open the door of healing. Amen. Oh, yes,

  295. many of you where you come from, their sicknesses in your bloodline. Your

  296. great grandfather had that sickness, your great grandmother had that sickness. Your uncles

  297. have the sickness, your aunties have the sickness. Your father has it.

  298. Your either your mother or your father has it. It's continuous. When you

  299. humble yourself, that key of humility will open to you the door of healing.

  300. Amen. And that sickness will not be able to transcend beyond your generation.

  301. Can I hear an amen? Oh? Can you say a better amen?

  302. Like someone who believes the word of God say a better amen. Hallelujah.

  303. Amen. And so humility is a key because it opens the door to

  304. riches and honor. Humility opens the door to riches and honor. Proverbs,

  305. Chapter twenty two, verse four. Proverbs, Chapter twenty two, verse four.

  306. By humility and the fear of the Lord are righteous and honor and life.

  307. By humility and the fear of the Lord are righteous and honor and life.

  308. Can we read it together? Three to one? Goal? Amen?

  309. How many of you want to be rich here? Not with bets niger or

  310. one ex beds or super bets, or for one night going to kill somebody's

  311. daughter to drive him as it is, Bens, That's not what I'm talking

  312. about, Amen, I'm talking about the riches that come from the blessing of

  313. the Lord that asks no sorrow. Amen. This is the key humility.

  314. The key to riches is humility. Amen. There was a young lady in

  315. the Book of Esther called Hadassah Esther. She was a village girl. A

  316. village girl, but guess what. By humility, she listened to the counsel

  317. of her uncle, and not too long after that she ended up being the

  318. queen of an empire. So she came into riches, She came into honor

  319. Amen, by humility. And so if you are humble at heart, we

  320. can predict your future. We don't need to prophesy your future. We can

  321. predict that you will do well. Amen. If you are proud, too,

  322. we can't predict. Maybe you gets far, you get it because God

  323. gives grace to the humble, but he resists the proud. Is someone changing

  324. by the word of God today? Is your life changing? Is your brain

  325. working over time to help you change? Yes? If you want to be

  326. rich, if you want to be honored, then humility is the key.

  327. Amen. Number four reason why humility is a key is that humility is a

  328. key because it opens the door to the grace of God. Romance, Chapter

  329. twelve, vers three. Romance, Chapter twelve, verse three. He opens

  330. humility opens the door to the grace of God. Amen. Technical guys helping

  331. me with this screen is gone off. Amen. And the Bible says that

  332. for I say, through the grace giving unto me, to every man that

  333. is among you, not to think of himself in this place. In this

  334. case is not just about the guys. It's for all of us. So

  335. him or herself. Amen. Maybe the ladies are thinking ours honest other boys,

  336. so it's not part of him or him. We should not think of

  337. ourselves more highly than we ought to think, but to think soberly. According

  338. to us, God has dealt with each man or woman the measure of faith.

  339. Amen. Don't think highly of your don't overhype yourself. Amen. How

  340. many of you know those people who like to they are overhyped. If you

  341. know anyone who is over hyped, give me a wave. They are very

  342. hyped or in fact overly hired. But when you go and check, Charlie,

  343. nothing of them. Just hype, social media, hype, social media.

  344. They weren't standing somebody's hotel. They will going rent the hotel room and

  345. hide themselves and when they feel to go and live at the back. And

  358. and he kept doing that until we one day we said we are going to

  359. sit in Okay and see and we realized that it was all high. Amen.

  361. yourself than you ought to think, as God has dealt with you according to

  362. the measure of your faith. Amen, So humble yourself so that God will

  363. lift you up. If your father doesn't have a messages bens, it is

  367. don't get Gucci shoes to wear, you won't die. Are you listening to

  368. me? Listen? The nature of life is such that you always want something

  369. new. The truth of the matter is that after you get that new thing,

  370. you want something else. You get it. So if you are not

  371. content with the little God has given you, you keep pushing and pushing.

  372. You end up being a thief because you need to steal to satisfy the craving.

  373. Amen. Do you know what Every six months, Apple brings out a

  386. He gives grace. God gives grace. Let's we got new King James version.

  387. Please help us with new King James version. But he gives more grace.

  388. Therefore, God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.

  389. Grace is unmerited favor, unmerited help. Amen. Help that you don't deserve,

  390. You receive it from God. But how you qualify for that hell is

  391. for you to be humble. Because God resists the proud. Amen, malchis

  392. come to me. Let's imagine for the sake of demonstration and Melchisidec is proud

  393. that not be your portion, Amen, and he's trying to walk through the

  394. door of destiny. According to this scripture. He says that let's go back

  395. to verse six. He gives more grace. Therefore, he says, God

  396. resists the proud. So regarding the proud, Satan has gone on holiday with

  397. them. Satan doesn't need to worry about them. Try and walk through me.

  398. Imagine, I am God and this is him. God resists the proud.

  399. God resists the proud. God resists the proud. God resists the proud.

  400. Amen. He resists the proud, so he will resist you. You

  401. will not be able to walk through the door of destiny. Amen. So

  402. when it comes to what God has thought concerning you for you to be and

  403. to accomplish in life, you won't get there. He's the one who has

  404. said it that you should be this and you are proud. Regarding you,

  405. Satan has gone on holiday. He's in the Bahamas, maybe chilling drinking some

  406. mohitos. By you. God is on your case and he resist you nicely.

  414. your life becomes peaceful. Amen. And so submit to God resists the

  415. devil, and he will flee from you. Amen. The only way Satan

  416. will run away from you is when you are fully submitted to God. Can

  418. unmerited favor of God, the emerited help from God. Amen. And as

  419. you begin to submit to God and to humble yourself before God, may God

  420. help you by pouring out more grace on you in Jesus precious name. Amen.

  421. Number five. Find out reason why humility is a key. Humility opens

  422. the door to the annoyinging. Humility opens the door to the anointing. The

  423. Bible says that, oh, how Jesus of Nazareth was annoyingted with the Holy

  424. Spirit and with power, and he went about doing good for good works.

  425. I've thought to you here two weeks ago that one thing that guarantees an open

  426. door is good works. With humility, you can walk in the anointing.

  427. Amen. And so if you come to church and we asked you, when

  428. was the last time you heard the voice of God? Please, when was

  429. the last time you heard the voice of God? It's a question to you

  430. all, give the Lord of wave if you heard the voice of the Lord.

  431. Give the Lord a wave if those he as spiritual. Amen. You

  432. see there are many people who are not hearing the voice of Word. My

  433. prayer for you is that every one of you will hear the audible voice of

  434. God. Amen. So no one will deceive you in life. Amen.

  435. But you see, God gives instruction to you, children of God, through

  436. the person that God has appointed over you. Amen. And so there are

  437. certain advices that I can give to you that will be inspired by the Lord,

  438. that will help you. I hope you understand. Do you understand?

  439. So sometimes there are some friends that you don't need to be friends with,

  440. And it's only your pastor who can tell you not to be friends with this

  441. person. Because when your mother tells you, you fight you do your mouth

  442. like lizard mouth. Amen. You frown your face for a thousand years in

  443. the house, you talk to anybody. But if you can humble yourself to

  444. hear the instruction, then you walk in humility, and that can open the

  445. door for you. Amen. And so it can open the door to anointing.

  446. How you can be humbled like a sevant? I was asking the first

  447. evicele how many if you have house boys and house girls in your house,

  448. give the Lord a wave. It's a blessing. Don't get me wrong,

  449. it's a blessing. If you have help in the house, give the Lord

  450. a wave. It's like you're saying, thank you to God that I have

  451. help. Give the Lord of wave. Amen. So I was telling them

  452. that you see how houseboys and house girls sometimes your mother can insult them,

  453. your big sister can insult them, insult them proper. Why he doesn't he

  454. hear anything. Do it this way, don't do it this way, and

  455. they'll just smile and say, oh sorry, mam, and do it for

  456. you. That is humility, Amen, That is humility. So if you

  457. can't humble yourself like a sevant, then you can't walk in the annointing.

  458. Of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Oh, I said amen. And so

  459. finally just write this down. Four enemies of humility. Four enemies of humility.

  460. Number one a wrong mindset, a wrong mindset or high mindedness over hygh

  461. pen yourself, high mindedness, me, you can't be my friend. I

  462. go to SOS. If you don't go to SOUS, you can't be my

  463. friend. But you should understand that the world has over eight billion people,

  464. not all of them go to SOUS. And the people that God will put

  465. in your path, the path to your destiny, some of them have not

  466. even gone to school before. But if you are high minded, you say,

  467. oh, I go to this school. So if you don't I went

  468. to you say me, only gay hair girls are my friends, or fancy

  469. pain boys are my friends, or pray sex boys. You are cutting yourself

  470. shorts. It's high mindedness. Amen. You have to humble yourself, be

  471. sober minded so that you can be friends with somebody who goes to Bencomb's secondary

  472. school. Do you understand, yes, I don't know the other side as

  473. a secondary school. Some in future say secondary school. Humble yourself so you

  474. can be friends with such people. To learn humility. Can I hear an

  475. amen. Amen. Number two. Enemy of humility is holding on to a

  476. good reputation at all times. Let's look at Philippians chapter two, verse five

  477. to eight as a final scripture. Holding on to a good reputation number three

  478. points. Not accepting to be a seventh number four points, not accepting that

  479. you are a mere human being is an enemy to humility. So let's look

  480. at the scripture. The Bible says, I let this mind be in you,

  481. which was also in Christ. Jesus next verse seven, but made himself

  482. of no reputation. No, Jesus made himself of no reputation, and took

  483. upon him the form of a seventh Jesus, the son of the Mosigh God,

  484. the King of Kings, the Lord of lords, the one who was,

  485. who is and is to come, the lion of the tribe of Judah,

  486. the bright and morning star. He he made himself of no reputation,

  487. and he took upon himself to be a servant in the likeness of men,

  488. and even in the likeness of men. He didn't make himself like a president.

  489. He didn't make himself like a governor. He made himself of no reputation.

  490. He was a carpenter's son. They said, is this not Jesus Mary's

  491. son, Josephson, the carpenter who was making chicken stoo, kitchen stoo or

  492. chicken coop the carpenter. Isn't He made himself of no reputation a man,

  493. And when he was found in the fashion as a man, he what he

  494. humbled himself. So please tell your neighbor. If God can humble himself,

  495. then you can humble yourself. Amen. He humbled himself and became obedient.

  496. Shout us to all the disobedient friends we have here. You are nothing like

  497. Jesus. Amen. He became obedient unto death, even death on the cross.

  498. Next verse. Wherefore God has highly exalted him. God has what He

  499. has highly exalted him and given him a name that is above every other name.

  500. God has given Jesus a name that is above every other name. Next

  501. verse, that are the name of Jesus every name should bow of things in

  502. heaven and on earth and under the earth. Eleven, And that every tone

  503. should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.

  504. Amen. So because of humility, God has exalted him and given him a

  505. name. So the name of Jesus is the only name you mention, and

  506. sickness runs away is the only name you mentioned. And blind eyes see is

  507. the only name you mentioned. And those who are crippled stand up and walk.

  508. It is the only name you mentioned. That when someone is dead,

  509. they come back to life because of humility, which is the key to open

  510. doors. Amen. And so this is the word of God for you today,

  511. that if you want to walk through the door of destiny, the key

  512. God is presenting to you today is the key of humility. Amen. The

  513. key of humility. Amen. And so we should accept that we are meremmortals

  514. and that God wants to help us to fulfill His purpose here on earth. Amen.
