Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Glory to God. Allelujah, Thank you Jesus, Blessings to you everybody.

(00:23):
It's good to see us. And Asashalah, thank you, thank
you so very much. If I had my way, I
would switch on the mic. I would switch off the
mic while he was talking. And my turn is coming, sir,
in the name of Jesus. But I honor every man
and woman of God he represented. I was so blessed

(00:47):
listening to Pastor Yemi David's so profoundly blessed. And let
me start up front by just bringing my salutations and
a word of strength to the entire household of David
for all that has happened. We're responsible people, and I
think this event has shown the maturity of the body,

(01:09):
that we are no longer children. The pain of one
is the pain of all. Allelujah. Yes, I have been
touched myself at the overwhelming support that has come from
the body of Christ to Pastor Shola and the household
of David. I think this is what we have cried for,
prayed for, and proposed for many years, that we must

(01:32):
have a body consciousness, that it is in us being
strengthened together that we stand and so on behalf of Jesus.
Myself and the ministry communicated my word of encouragement that
in spite of all that has happened, the Bible says,
while we look not at the things which are seen,

(01:54):
but the things which are unseen. For the things that
are seen at temple, it says, but the things that
are on sener eternal. It says, for our light afflictions
which work at in us, but for a moment, it
says that it works in us a far more exceeding

(02:16):
weight of glory. I believe that this is the testimony
of household of David in the name of Jesus. So Pasachola,
thank you so much for your strength, you and your
wife and the leadership you have demonstrated, spiritual maturity, resilience.

(02:37):
Hallelujah for this morning. I'm just introducing my session very
very brief charge, because we have to be done from
here and leave and then we'll come back in the evening.
But then I want to encourage you up front to
take every teaching that has come from this alter very seriously.

(03:02):
God's method has always been his word, his method, to lift,
his method, to bless his method, to bring us into
possibilities in the spirit has always been his word, but
his word that is understood and engaged by faith. Are
we ready to receive one more time? Let's lift off

(03:23):
our hands to heaven enak the spirit of grace to
help us one more time. One more time, go ahead
and pray.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
Being of Kings, Lord of Lords, faideful land Truth, lam
of God.

Speaker 3 (03:47):
Weavership, King of Kings, Lord of Lords.

Speaker 4 (03:57):
Faidfull le Truth, Lamb of God, weashaping, the King of Kings,
Lord of Lords, faithful Lani, Lamb of God.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
We were one more time. We're praying King of Kings,
Lord of Lords, Faithful, Landrup, Lamb of.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
God, weaveshaping, Allelujah.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
John said, I wept because no man was worthy to
open the book and unlock the seals thereof. And the
elder tapped him and said, whip not for the lion
of the tribe of Judah. Even the root of David
is worthy deserving. He says, I look, and I saw

(05:01):
upon a throne a lamb as though had been slain,
having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven
spirits of God. You know the meaning of that statement.
The eyes represent revelation and the horns represent authority. For

(05:22):
every dimension of revelation in the spirit, there is an
authority component that must justify that revelation, Meaning every time
the word of God comes, you must contend for number one,
the revelation, but press further to access the authority component

(05:44):
that gives you the grace to defend that truth. So
it's not enough to have raema. It's not enough to
have revelation. The end of your postuit is not complete
until the authority component that backs your revelation is also received.
The Bible says there are a group of people who

(06:06):
are ever learning, but never coming onto the knowledge of
the truth. So it is not enough to know. It
is not enough to be aware. It is not enough
to be excited. You must press for that understanding, and
then with it you must pray for the engracing that
empowers you to be a living proof of that which

(06:29):
you have received. Allelujah, please be seated. May God bless
you in the name of Jesus. Now I just want
to introduce I call them foundational pillers. I was very
blessed when I saw the theme for this conference, the resurrection,

(06:53):
and I think past this represents the epicenter most believers
do not excel in their faith adventure primarily because our knowledge.
Spiritual knowledge is not organized, is not synergized to produce
a victorious believer. There is a way God designed that

(07:16):
men would know him, and there is an apostolic order
of accessing spiritual knowledge allelujah, and apostolic model that was
delivered to the early Church. That means there is a
template by which the average believer must submit himself to
to be holistically built. Now you are liberty to free

(07:37):
lance spiritual knowledge here and there, but it will not
be organized to produce a victorious life. This is the
tragedy with many believers. So we know lead two of
many dimensions in the spirit. Like a man who wants
to build a house like this, You have a zinc here,
you have the men here, you have the irons here,

(07:58):
but you are not able to organize them to produce
a victorious life. So there's hardly any dimension of truth
you communicate that believers are absolutely ignorant of the key
is to be able to organize it to produce a
victorious life. We know that prayer is important in the
believers work. We know that giving is important in the

(08:19):
believers work. Are we together we know that a sound
mind is important in the believers work. We know that
an understanding of authority is important. But to be able
to synergize them together to produce a victorious Christian life
is where many people are found wanting. And it is
for this singular reason the Bible says, He gave on

(08:42):
to some that he led captivity captive, and he gave
gifts as men to men. Some he gave apostles, some
he gave profits, some he gave evangelists, past us, and teachers.
To what end? The Bible says for the perfective the
maturing of the saints, that the saints, now in their

(09:04):
mature state, will do the work of the ministry, that
we all together will grow into the fullness of the
stature of the measure of Christ. It says, not toss
toe and throw by every wind of doctrine and the
slight of men were in they lie to deceive. Allelujah.
So it is important for us to know that we

(09:26):
most contend for methodical spiritual growth. And so when I
saw this teaching about resurrection for me, my heart really
reached out to the teaching because in this single topic
contains the power the victory of the believer in Christ.

(09:46):
First Corinthians, chapter fifteen. Please let's begin our reading from
verse one, and I please request that you lend me
your attention. First Corinthians fifteen and verse one. Moreover, brethren,
I declare onto you the God which I preached onto you,
which also ye have received. And wherein his stand noticed

(10:07):
the construction of Paul. Paul is a very intelligent man,
not just a spiritual man. His discourse is very articulate.
He's now saying, there is an understanding you stand upon.
He's doing a recap and then he says verse two,
now by which ye also has saved, if ye keep
in memory what I preached onto you, unless ye have

(10:32):
believed in vain. Verse three. Now he says, four, I
delivered onto you first of all that which I also received.
What did he deliver? How that Christ died for us,
since according to the scription number one, number two, verse four,
and that he was buried number two. And then the

(10:55):
third point is that he rose again on the third
day according to the scripture. Vers four. Now he says
he was seen of Siaphas and of the twelve. Next
verse please, after that he was seen above of above
five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part

(11:17):
are life onto this time, let's stop there because of time.
The full texas to verse twenty. So he gives us
the frame work of what we call the Gospel of Salvation.
He says, this is the truth upon which you stand.
That number one, Christ died for your sin, according to

(11:38):
the scripture. Number two he was buried, the Bible says,
and then number three that he rose again a were
together now, and that in his resurrection he was seen
of many as proof. There are certain foundational pillers that
all believers must have if we are to work victorious.

(12:02):
This becomes the basis of your faith. This becomes the
basis of your exploits. This becomes the basis of your confidence.
The understanding of the believer, as far as redemption is concern,
was designed to be framed around these truths. And I'll
just least four of them very quickly. Number one, the

(12:24):
first foundational pillar that represents the basis for the gospel,
the basis for salvation is the earthwork of Jesus or
his humanity. The journey that culminated to salvation and the
victory of the believer did not just start at his death.

(12:45):
It is important to understand the implication of Jesus's becoming
a man. Are we together, first, timot each after three
and verse sixteen. Please let's urry up so that I
keep my promise, the Bible says, and without controversy, watch
this now, great is the mystery of godliness? What is

(13:08):
the mystery that God became a man? If God did
not become a man number one, he would not be
able to die? Are we together now? Because God does
not die. Spirits don't die. No, it's not a reality
with spirits. The concept of death in the realm of
the spirit is separation. That this turns between you and reality.

(13:33):
That is how death is measured in the spirit, but
in the physical realm in terms of cessation of existence,
as it were, living being separated from your physical body.
It does not happen to spirits. So God needed to
become a man, because I hope you know. The Bible says,
the heaven of heavens belong to the Lord, but the
head as it given to the sounds of man. And

(13:57):
there are many conditions for you to be called a man.
I was discussing yesterday at the meeting with past to
a king not every creation of God can be called man.
There are certain conditions that must be satisfied for any
entity to be called man. Number one, you must be
a spirit. Number two, that spirit must be domiciled in

(14:20):
a mortal body. If that spirit is not domiciled in
a mortal body, it cannot be called man. Number three,
there must be solical expressions that connect that spirit to
the body, the will, the emotion, and the intellect. Any
entity that has these factors, who existing together, is called man.
And they are the only legitimate people who have access

(14:44):
to authority and power upon the earth. Are we learning now? So?
The humanity of Jesus is very important. In John chapter
one and verse fourteen. John one fourteen, very quickly, the
Bible lets us know. John one fourteen help us media,
He says, and the world became flesh, and it dwelt

(15:06):
among us, and we beheld his glory, even as of
the Father full of grace and truth. Why did Jesus
become a man very quickly? Number one, He came as
an accurate representation of the Father. He came as a
correction to our understanding of the misunderstood God. Jesus did

(15:29):
not just come to die alone. His first assignment was
to correct the idea that the prophets Hetherto had proposed
about God, because until Jesus came, the business for the
accurate knowledge of God was not possible. Are we together? Yes,
And so men wrote their understanding of God based on

(15:50):
the perspectives that they saw. So Jesus came as perfect theology.
He worked upon the earth and gave us an opportunity
to study him, so that we would be able to
learn God more accurately. This is very important. Jesus also
came working upon the earth as a pattern man. He
came to create a model for a victorious earth work.

(16:14):
If Jesus just appeared and died, without growing and working
upon the earth, we would not have a template for
the model for a victorious life. A weent together, So
the Bible says, looking onto Jesus, we can study from
the earthwork of Jesus a portrait God's intent as to
how the believer was designed to function the humanity. Why

(16:38):
did he become a man? He became a man so
that he could put upon himself the scene of all
men and die. You find out for reference in Romance
chapter five twelve to nineteen my apologies that I'm just
Russian and stretching us Romance Chapter five twelve to nineteen.
The Bible says, where for us, by one man scein

(17:01):
entered into the world, how did sin enter by one man?
And death came by sin? So death was a natural consequence.
Death was a product. It was an evolution with time
as a result of the presence of sin. It was
important for Jesus to become a man. He could not
carry the sin of the world as God. No, he

(17:24):
had to become a man. If you want to understand salvation, redemption,
and the victory that was derived thereof, you must understand
and respect the humanity of Jesus. Are we learning now? Yes?

(17:46):
His humanity was the basis I wrote here for his
becoming sin. If he did not become a man, he
would not be able to be seen for us to
now be the righteousness of God. The very next point,
let me hurry up. The next killer upon which redemption
lies is his death. So number one, his humanity, his earthwork.

(18:08):
Number two his death. Why did he have to die?
Isn't it amazing that as powerful as God is, he
could not cast seen out of men? There had to
be a legitimate protocol that was followed. Amazing. As powerful
as God is, you would think he would just make
one divine pronouncement after all his creation. It would not

(18:33):
be injuredtice if he did that. And yet he chose
to follow the route of death. Why did he die?
Let me stummarize very quickly, the death of Jesus gave
him the legal rights to go to Hades. Without death,
there would be no legitimate path for him to go
to Hades, the place of the dead, where he would

(18:53):
purchase victory for the believers. As chapter two and verse
twenty seven. Is someone learning already as two seven, My God,
you see, this is the understanding that sponsor's confidence in
the spirit. When you stand to speak to the sick
and say be healed, when you stand to profess side
to your destiny, when you stand to pray, there is

(19:13):
an understanding wherein from whence your confidence comes. This is it?
The Bible says, because Paul Peter was preaching, now thou
wilt not leave thy soul in hell speaking about Jesus.
Neither thou will suffy your holy one to see corruption.
Colosan chapter two, from verse fourteen and fifteen let's hurry up.

(19:36):
Colosans to fourteen and fifteen. Why did Jesus die blotting
out every handwriting? That death granted him access to Hedi?
And that was where this happened, blotting out the handwriting
of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us.
The Bible says, he took it out of the way,

(19:57):
nailing it to his cross. The next verse, Lise, the
Bible says, and haven't spoiled principalities and powers? Where did
that happen? He made a public show of them, triumphing
over them in it. What was the significance of his death? Therefore,
number one, His death was the highest revelation of God's

(20:19):
love for us. Greater love had no man than this,
That a man laid down his life for his friend.
The death of Jesus was proof, indeed, of God's love.
John fifteen thirteen, Romans five eight. His death was the
highest revelation of God's love give us Romans five eight.

(20:47):
But God commended his love towards us. Let's wad together
in that while we were yet seen us, ahah Christ
died for us. So his death for us was proof
of his love. Now watch this in his death. I
wrote here the penalty for sin was paid, and the
legal claims of justice was satisfied. It was not in

(21:12):
his hanging on the cross. It was in his dying.
When he died, the legal claims of justice was satisfied,
and the price for sin was paid. Mark ten forty five.
Mark chapter ten and verse forty five. Please mark ten
forty five. Let's read together, ready, one to read. Don't

(21:34):
be tired of scriptures, For even the son of man
came not to be minister too, but to minister and
to give his life as a take note of that
word ransom. Terroism has helped us, sadly to understand what
ransom means all together. He gave his life as a ransom,

(21:57):
the means to buy back. He gave his life as
a ransom. Colosians one twenty two. Colosians one twenty two, Colosians,
Chapter one and verse twenty two. Do we have that
thank you in the body of his flesh, that through

(22:20):
death to present you holy and unblamable and unreprovable in
his sight? What was the means for that presentation? Death?
It was true death that he now presented us wholly
unblameable and unreprovable. Let me give you the last scripture
Hebrews two and verse four Please write it down. This

(22:42):
is very important. Many believers know Jesus died, but they
do not know why he died. The Bible says God
also bearing them witness Hebrews two fourteen. Is that what
we have there? Truth two and verse fourteen. Thank you

(23:02):
for as much then, as the children are partakers of
flesh and blood, he said, he also himself likewise took
part of the same. Let's read together that through death, hallelujah,
he might destroy him that had the power of death.
How did it destroy him that had the power of death?

(23:24):
Through death? Not truth speaking, not true prophesying, true death.
The next feeler that represents the basis for salvation and
redemption is his burial. This is an aspect most believers
do not even know anything about. They just think death.
Then they think resurrection. The value of resurrection is that

(23:47):
you understand his humanity, you understand his death, you understand
his burial. Why was he buried? Let me show you
very quickly. Number one, the burial proved that he really died.
The burial get evidence to his death. Look twenty three

(24:09):
fifty to fifty three. Please, if a burial did not happen,
there would be no basis for you to believe that
he actually died. And behold, there came a man called Joseph,
Joseph of Arimacia, a counselor, a wise and a good man,
and he was a just man. Next verse, Please very quickly.
The Bible says the same had consented the council. Indeed,

(24:32):
of them, the Bible says he was of Arimasa, the
city of the Jews, and so on and so forth.
Next verse, this man went to pilot and begged for
what the body of Jesus. He didn't beg for Jesus.
He begged for the body, the dead body of Jesus.
Next verse, and he took it down and wrapped it

(24:55):
in lenine. You don't rap a man who is alive
that way. He rapped it in lenine and laid it
in a sepulcher, and it was hewn in stone, wearing
no man had ever laid. Burial actually happened. A man
donated his grave. He rapped Jesus like Lazarus was rapped

(25:17):
away together. See the way they rapped people those days,
even if you were lying, you would die allelujah, that
they will rap you in a way that there was
no hope he was over. So it's not like he
was just putting a nice coffin and maybe you had
the opportunity to pretend, and Brittley was rapped. They knew

(25:39):
what it meant to rap people that way. Jesus really
died away together, Jesus really died, hallelujah. The burial proved
that he really died. It gave evidence to his death.
Now watch this. The burial was what allowed the resurrection

(25:59):
power to be on display. We would never see and
appreciate the resurrection power if he was not buried, because
where the burial happened was also where resurrection started. Are
we learning first Corinthians fifteen fifty five to fifty six.

(26:22):
You see that I'm very simple this morning, because I
want us to understand he was on the basis of
the burial that this statement could become fulfilled or death.
Where is your sting or grave? Where is your victory?
If he was left on the cross, probably you could
speak of death, but you would not be able to

(26:44):
speak of the grave versus the next verse. Let's finish
it the sting of death is seen, and the strength
of sin is the law or death. Where is your
sting or grave? Where is your victory? Now will take
time to deal with the resurrection, hopefully in the evening,

(27:06):
but just for you to know as a fact, first
Corinthians fifteen three to eight. We already read it that
Jesus did not just die and remain in the grave.
The Bible lets us know, based on the authority of
scripture and the authority from eyewitnesses, that he actually resurrected.
The Bible says next verse please, and that he was buried,

(27:30):
and that he rose again. Someone say again, he rose
again the third day, according to the scriptures, and the
entire text to verse twenty was a defense of the resurrection,
because I hope you know the primary diferends those days
between the Parises and the Sadducees was on the matters

(27:52):
of resurrection. They did not believe resurrection happened. In fact,
the Bible lets us know that when a sepulcher was
opened by the Angel, he sat on it, and Jesus
resurrected by the glory of the Father. That the people
there took report and they were paid and said, you
know what makes sure you ad you said the disciples
came to steal his body, and that he did not resurrect,

(28:15):
And if there is any other matter, we will use
money to settle it. Isn't it amazing that money was
the first fool that was deplied to stop the resurrection.
We will give you money. Just make sure that you
do not agree and at pet to the fact that
he rose again. Now, but do you know that it

(28:38):
does not stop at the resurrection. As powerful as resurrection is,
the final pillar is his exaltation, because he resurrected and
was working upon the earth. But then the Bible tells
us in John chapter twenty, from verse sixteen and seventeen,

(29:01):
is someone learning now? Yes, Jesus said on to her Mary,
and she turned herself, and he said, rabbo ni, which
is to say, Master, this is a resurrected Christ. Jesus said,
onto her touch me not why, For I am resurrected,
but I have not yet ascended to my father. It

(29:25):
was called that there was a very clear exegesis of
what happened when he went to the heavenly tabernacle, because
heaven fulfilled his assignment as Savior. He needed to back
it up with the assignment as high priests, and went together.
She had to go to the heavenly Tabanacu and to
pour his blood upon that altar once and for all.

(29:47):
Because the law was that the age of the lamb
that was slain is worth determined the validity of the atonement.
And so the lamb was one years in ancient times,
and the validity will be one years now the lamb
that is ageless when to put his blood upon the tabernacle.
So you have to measure the age of the lamp
that died to know how far the validity of the

(30:10):
atonement was equal to the age of the lamb. Hallelujah.
Efficients After one twenty and twenty one, Paul was speaking
to the church in Ephesus still about the exaltation of
the Christ. The Bible says that you know that which
he wrote in Christ when he raised him from the bed,
does not stop there. And the Bible says he set

(30:33):
him at his own right hand in heavenly places. Let's
continue far above. Hallelujah. Let this be a prophetic word
for someone that you are far above, because the implication
of the resurrection is that it gave the business for
your oneness, and then the positional advantage raised up with him.

(30:54):
Efficients after two says far above all principality power might
don't Minion and every name that is named, not only
in this world, but that which is to come his
exaltation hebrew chapter twelve and verse two. I believe, the

(31:22):
Bible says, looking on to Jesus, the author and the
finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was
set before him, Read with me. Please, he endured the cross,
despising the shame, and today he's been exalted, and he's
sitting at the right hand of the Father. Let me
show you one more scripture and then we tie this
up he Brews chapter nine. Please the significance of his

(31:46):
exaltation Hebrews nine, eleven and twelve. While I was thirty,
I found this scripture, and it really blessed me. But
trist being come and high priests of good things come
by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, the Bible says,
not made with hands, that is to say, not of

(32:08):
this building. Next verse, please, the Bible says, neither by
the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood.
Read with me, he entered in once into the Holy
Place and obtained for us eternal redemption, not temporal redemption.

(32:28):
Eternal redemption that did not just happen because he died.
He had to ascend to heaven and perform that high
christly duty. Now listen, his at work, his death, his burial,
his resurrection, his assansion is the basis for the believer's
victory today. If you believe only one of these components,

(32:54):
you are not a Christian. You are not at liberty
to choose anyone to believe. It is a journey that
must be believed. This is the report that you must
believe that he came in the flesh. Are we together now?
And then that he actually died, and that his burial
was still proof that he died, and that he resurrected

(33:17):
by the glory of the Father, and that he is
ascended to heaven. He purchased for us internal redemption, and
his is today seated at the right hand of the Father.
When you understand all of this, then you will understand
the mystery of identification that while he was going through
all of this, Paul began to teach us that in

(33:38):
him and with him we partroof of every of these stages.
When he died, we died in him. We died with him.
When he was buried, he said, buried with him in baptism.
When he resurrected, my God, we resurrected with him too.
Are we together now? I hope you know that everything

(33:59):
he got in his resurrection he had before he died,
but he had it alone. Are you getting the whole thing? Now?
Everything that was given to him, the name, the office,
he had it already as God, but he relinquished it

(34:19):
to comment start the Johnny. But in doing that he
connected man by covenant. And then when he had it back.
The joy of salvation is not Christ's victory, is that
it was given to the believer. Worthy is the lamb
that was slain to receive, not for himself to receive

(34:39):
for us. If your understanding of redemption is that Christ
is victorious, it is powerful, but it is not news.
The news is not Christ's victory. The news is the
fact that the believer forday have become a partaker. That
was what made the death, burial, and resurrection worth The
While have God in heaven, he was not threatened. He

(35:01):
still had all things in him, all things consist but
the problem was man. So he relinquished his glory. He
came and worked through the protocol that SATs find the
legal claims of justice, and in his resurrection, and as sansion,
the Bible says, we are seated with him today. Can
I tell you this is the correct business, the epic center,

(35:26):
the by fertile point of any and all activities of
the believer. When we pray, this is the confidence that's
responsor prayer. I think one of the biggest problems that
we're having in the body of Christ now is that
we're gradually drifted into self righteousness and putting our confidence
upon things, including human activities. Is the reason why we

(35:51):
keep dissipating spiritual energy with no corresponding authority. Because as
well in tensions as these activities are the this for
the believers, expelling is not tie to any achievement of himself.
Are we together now? So if you believe in your
fasting more than you believe in the finished work of Christ,

(36:11):
you will be disappointed. You believe in your prayer more
than you believe in the finished work of Christ. Don't
get me wrong, these are part of the principles that
should lead to the believer's victory. But that ultimately, the
reason why the devil respects you is nothing of yourself.
It is what you were given. This is powerful. For

(36:38):
as long as Satan can get us to believe that
somebody will be healed just because I prayed, just because
I firsted, just because I studied the Bible and all
of these things, you are already defeated. You will have
what looks like a semblance of victory, but it will
never add up, because the jealousy of God will mandate

(36:59):
that he becomes the peace center behind everything that glorifies Christ.
I have studied some of these mighty men that were
used by God very greatly, and you see the kind
of spiritual exercises in fasting and prayer and consecration that
they went through. Most people do not understand. But do

(37:20):
you know beyond it? The business of your confidence was
the fact that they were not alone. They were so
conscious of the Finnish work of Christ, the victory that
was wrought in Christ. Men like the l Osborne Rayne
had bunk here with the simplicity of your faith. They
commanded marvelous trial. Today we make more noise than them,

(37:41):
and there is a missing link is and west of
difference in terms of results. Allelujah. If you preach a
message like I've preshed now in a generation, people look
at you and say you don't know much. Because in
the mind of the Church and in our pride being

(38:05):
filled with knowledge, we believe that redemption realities are too
elementary for the results we are looking for. Yet, unfortunately,
this is the biggest threat to Satan. You can't teach
any other thing. That's fine. You can teach opinions, you
can teach rituals. But when you come to bring Jesus

(38:27):
as the epicenter of the believer's victory. In fact, you
can even teach the victory of Christ. Once you do
not connect it to the believer, Satan is still comfortable.
The problem starts when you now begin to relate the
victory of Christ to the believer, you are about to
change that person's life. For a long time I studied

(38:50):
redemption only from the point of appreciating the extent of
Christ's victory. But one day the Lord opened my eyes
to see that. Listen, the business for all that is
to empower you, to bring you into that God class.
So if you stop at just tuddying Jesus, and you
do not see yourself in him, you will be limited

(39:11):
even though you know him are wing together. So if
I look at someone who is sick now and I
tell him stand up from a wheelchair, it is God
who is at working us. Like you said, both to
will and to do. But there is a revelation that
sponsors that a human being cannot produce that kind of possibility.
How do you come and stand for someone who is

(39:33):
medically crippled. You are saying it, he's saying it. Intelligence
attached to the fact that this person is crippled, and
then you come in the name of Jesus. You can
recite the name and nothing happens, because there is a
consciousness that empowers the name. We use the name todare
as a ritual toward disappointment. What really empowers the name

(39:55):
is the fact that when you are standing before that person,
you are seeing the cross, and you are seeing two
people on that cross. You are Christ, you are seeing
the Great. Your revelation is complete when you join him
in that journey. The real I said, your revelation is
not complete when you see him in that journey, when
you join him. That when he hung upon that cross.

(40:18):
Joshua Salman was also there, not because I could merit it.
We were together in covenant. So every time said An
says I want to stop you, I tell him you
have to stop two people because that journey from dentil
forever it is not about one person again. You want
Christ now become that unbeatable team. When I hold the

(40:40):
micys two people speaking, you are only seeing one well,
you are seeing the effect of two people, you and
the glory of the Father. When you carry this consciousness,
I am telling you it will turn your life around.
God can give you a project to build anything and
go anywhere, and you will know that He spoke to
two people. Are conscious of being alone? You will fail

(41:02):
in life. You are already defeated. Are we learning the grave?
That is the reason why we can minister life to
people today, because we are partakers of your authority that
steal the grave. You can look at someone appointed onto
death and stand as a weakness as an ambassador of

(41:25):
the kingdom, without bragging, but with total confidence, and tell
the person I stand representing the government of heaven, and
we declare your life extended. And it is some time
registered in the spirit. How about his resurrection. We talk
about that in the night, but his accession is profound.

(41:47):
The resurrection gave the business for his accession. That he's
seated today. You may not look like it, but you
must believe it. Believe it in that reality is what
brings you in that place. Listen, every body you admire
today started from a standpoint of defeat. That is the
default position for all men. But you grow your way

(42:11):
through understanding. You grow your way through understanding. When you speak,
you speak as an oracle of God, knowing that you
are speaking from that ascended position. You see, it's a
position that demons understand. It's a position that the realm
of the spirit understands what the saints do not understand.
That a secondard position when you tell people be blessed,

(42:33):
when you tell people made the Lord or no you
if you speak as a preacher, you wasted your time.
In fact, if you speak as an apostle, well maybe
if you know you are sent, or you speak as
a prophet, But when you speak as one who is
speaking from that elevated altitude in the spirit as an
ordinary believer, do you know personal One of the reasons

(42:54):
why men of God have so much trouble today is
because we have refused to bring the revelation that reproduces
victory in believers. So the body is already destroying a
few people, and when the devil attached one person, it
can kill God's program at once. The gifts were supposed
to prepare the body. Can I tell you the proof

(43:16):
that we are successful is that believers come up in
an accelerated dimension into the statue of Christ, not just
that we are shining as preachers. Shining as a preacher
is not the way the Martin script was designed to work. No,
the degree to which the average men by household of
David rises to a place of tuture in the spirit

(43:38):
is how you measure the success of per Social and
his wife and the leadership. Are we together? Let me
announce you in the name of Jesus, that we're coming
into a season in the body of Christ where there
are men dead enough yielded enough to release themselves to
be conduit for many to experience God in his fullness.

(43:59):
Are we together now? Thank God for the lifting, Thank
God for all of this world. The days of celebrity
Christianity is coming to an end, where God is finding
vessels that I yielded passionate enough to see the body
of Christ crue the body of Christ mature. This is

(44:22):
one of the things that God has been speaking to
me about that it is important we adopt that revelation
that John adopted, that I may decrease so that Christ
will increase. Our assignment is not to self flesh to
market ourselves, but that by any means under God, we
must become conduits that empower the saints, bring to the

(44:45):
saints the truths that are needed to build them holistically
and connect them to the victory that is in Christ.
I hope you know we are not the ones who
produce the victory. So if someone gets healed, if someone
gets delivered, of course they would thank God for the vessel.
But in proof, the glory goes to the one who

(45:06):
died and purchased it. Turner redemption, Ah Hello, in a Hello,
in ah Hello, in.

Speaker 5 (45:37):
A Allelujah.

Speaker 1 (45:49):
Kenneth Hagin Canneth see Hagen no blessed memory. When God
began to move with Kenneth Haggin, he was not the
only one who got that grace, and that man to
his days. But many of the people is not the world,
and they kept building on experiences and shadows, and kennet

(46:09):
Egin made a statement. He said, if they were not
restored to the authority of the world to see Christ
and the realities of redemption as the basis for their
being powerful, they will not last. They laughed at him,
and all of them faded away. Allelujah. Anybody who is
not christocentric in his approach, that means conscious of Christ

(46:33):
and what He has done as the basis for your victory.
The weariness that befalls all men will eventually catch up
with you. So the day you feel you are not fasted,
the day you feel you are not prepared. And let
me tell you an honest truth, when you start active ministry.
If you do not know this, you'll be tired one day,

(46:54):
no matter how anointed you are. Take it from me,
you will cry many tears in the secret until He
becomes and the reality of your wariness, regardless your spiritual activities,
who soon catch up with you. It is in ministry
you will see that the excellency of the power is
truly of God. Allelujah. Some of the most phenomenal meetings

(47:15):
I have seen in my life were meetings where I
did not feel any strength on my own. Allelujah. You
are aware of your insufficiency as you are process meetings.
But every time the frailness of your body catches up
with you, you remember the Cross. You remember Christ. You
remember that his finished work. You remember that his death,

(47:37):
burial and the resurrection is the reason why the sick
will be healed. There are times you are preaching to
people and you can stay unbelief on your faces as
you are talking. Are we together? You know that if
you depend on your strength, there is no skill that
would make this. If you receive anything at such points,
you forget about yourself and then allowed Christ take his place,

(48:02):
and then you will watch the one that walk in power.
Respect what defeated Satan, Respect what defeated Sein, Respect what
defeated the grave. Allelujah. We're discussing yesterday, like Pascal said
as I prepared to wrap up, we're talking about a
great man of God is going to be with the

(48:23):
Lord now, and one of our fathers in the faith
who came into the faith like because his crippled brother
became healed in that crusade. The man was shouting in Euroba,
having his own crusade, and then that man of God
was carrying his brother, pawn Tripple, and the man shouted
in Jesus' name. In Euroba, they didn't know anything much

(48:47):
about Christ crucified, and they carried that revelation to the
crusade ground and tested it with sicknesses and diseases, and
my goodness, and the mental forces bowed before this man
shouted in the name of Jesus, and his brother dropped
standing till today. And yet I can't share with you now,

(49:12):
not to be sarcastic. I can't share with you the
Greek word for healing, the Hebrew word for healing, the
Latin word for healing, the modern king Jem's word for healing.
And when I am done, then I answered, well, I
hope that with these few points of mind, I'm not
being sarcastic. I hope you are convinced. I'm not confused

(49:32):
that healing is yours. Let's go home, not this man,
not this man. In two thousand and four, I was
in jost when red herd Bunk came. I stood there
for six hours. I was praying and crying. I was
already a man of God. But I said, Lord, let

(49:54):
something leave this man and land upon me I've read
his books. I've read tell Usborne's books, but what is
it about these people? Sam? After the first day I
went back, and by the second day I said I
would not I would come and serve. I didn't just
want to stand and receive. I was willing people myself
on wheelchairs to the front, and I was praying tongues.

(50:16):
I said, Lord, this is how my meetings would be too.
I may not fully understand the dynamics, but I honor
this manner's touching what you have put in his life.
I watched him pretty simple message, sometimes annoyingly simple, and
you're wondering, okay, so what am I doing here? The
simplicity of the gospel and the tremendous power that backstage

(50:42):
Ren had bunted took a cup of water so that
you will minister the baptism. You may have heard my story.
That was when my eyes was open and the first
time in my life I saw the manifestation of the
Holy Spirit. It was a giant bird without exaggeration, moving
across the entire to sit ground. I thought everyone was

(51:02):
seeing it, and yet I was the only one seeing it.
And the Spirit of God took me to Genesis chapter
one and verse two, and the spirit over around the
face because he was about to pray for miracles. You
see that now. I had read this scripture, but it
has not become life. And then the man was done

(51:24):
and shouting, almost as if he was losing his voice.
Blind eyes be opened, say bodies be healed. It's not
that they told me. Part of the people I will there.
I saw them stand up. Come on now, look, let
me tell you. Genuine results is the end of arguments,
senuine table results, Andelujah. I watched blind eyes open. Some

(51:53):
of them could not speak English. They didn't even know
what he were saying. This guy imported the spirituary reality
by light, not by gimmicks. It was from rainhard bunted
to say better Max, you know those small better Max.
That was the first time I saw a man pray

(52:13):
over shrine materials and fire came out. It's not that
they told me. I saw it, not in a vision.
That was when they started the fire conference. I think
it was in Congo Diarcy or so. There were calls
and other things, and this man shouted and fire came out. Weve,

(52:40):
we were shiping, weve allelujah. You've heard my story. When
I read about Charles and Francis Hunter. Not many people
know them now they've gone to be with the Lord.

(53:01):
Two people. He started ministry in his forty Sir Charan
San Francis Hunter, remarkable people, remarkable. There was a meeting,
without exaggeration, there were over one hundred wheelchairs. One zero
zero one hundred. Imagine a congregation of hundred people, and

(53:24):
all of them are wilchairs. I watch these guys perform miracles.
The way they perform miracles is not that they pray.
And when where you are healed, you come out people
with cross ice. You are watching it and everything correct
in your presence, and they laugh over it. And you
are there with your zeal finding trying to look for God,

(53:45):
and you are wondering, God, why are you missing? And insta,
I'm not missing. You have ignored the secrets I gave you.
The secret is Christ, Christ crucified the death. There is
no revelation that can addit. This reality, everything is upon it.
Did you hear what I'm saying? You want to work
in victory, You want to work in power. Return to

(54:06):
the simplicity of the gospel. I am not ashamed of
the Gospel of Christ for it is the power of
God unto salvation, not for everyone, to Him that believes,
to Him, that believes, to Him that believes. I was
going to apply for visa to go to US. I

(54:29):
wanted to go and serve them for two weeks. I
knew they would not stay long, and all I wanted
to do was to go and strop their toilets, was sincerely,
and then have an opportunity to study certain things. How
do they pray? How do they talk to God? That
God is not hearing me like that, and yet the

(54:50):
same Lord is reached onto all. I didn't want to
hear stories. I bought their materials over twenty three hours
video on healing the sick. I sat with this thing,
studied it one by one. I said, Lord, where is
this thing? For God's sake? You see here one of
the things I'm praying the body of Christ would respect

(55:13):
is number one God and number two the sacrifices of
men that brought them where God has exalted them. Allelujah,
this is the house of honor. And I must tell
you it is true that the excellency of power belongs
to God. But do not disrespect the sacrifice of alignment
that brought people to the level of stature wherein God

(55:34):
is glorified today. If it was sheep, all men who
have it, all men can have it, All men should
have it. Are we together now? But this is where
the labored dimension of contending for eternal life comes in.
We have to wrapple. When they died and I did
not have the opportunity, I prayed, I said, well, they

(55:56):
are dead, what spirit of the living God? You are life,
and you are me. You are the one who helped
this man. What is the secret you see? I don't
want to complicate my spiritual life. Jesus glorified my destiny, exalted,
dramatic results demonstrated. I don't want to waste my time
no matter what you say or do. The end of

(56:18):
it is the results of transformation, the results of salvation,
the results of the supernatural, the results of wisdom. Please
do not downplay results. This is a generation that will
not pay attention to you until they see Christ revealed
in the fullness. The world became flesh and we beheld.

(56:38):
You only behold what has become flesh. So when we
talk about the resurrection, it is because God is using
this topic to signify a season that is coming upon
the body of Christ, that there is a greater consciousness
to begin to research where we have lost touch with
genuine power, where we have lost with divine reality, and

(57:01):
in truth we have done well in terms of our
personal press. We've exhausted our options. We need to return back.
Usually the secret to the complicated is in something hidden
that is simple. We take this given in organizational leadership.
Behind the dexterous organizations in the world are very simple models,

(57:24):
very simple models. If the Gospel was meant for all men,
then it must be simple enough to be understood. Only
God knows what can happen to you today. If you
work in the reality of the resurrection, will consider asks.
After fron Verse started touring the night, the Bible says,
and with great power give the apostles weakness of the

(57:48):
resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And great grace was upon
how many there is a grace that is for all,
the grace that attests to the resurrection power of Jesus.
It's not just for itself. Let you there is an
election of grace. But I tell you everyone is destined
in Christ that includes you. Away together Now that the

(58:08):
power of God, the wisdom of God, the grace of
God may be made manifest in and through your life.
Let me recap one last time, and we end that
the basis for the believer's salvation, redemption, and victory is
not just all that has happened from Christ through Christ,
but that it happened through Christ for our sake. The

(58:33):
believer was the motivation behind everything Christ went through, and
you must learn the mystery of his humanity and his earthwork,
the basis for him becoming a man working as a model,
a patent man, revealing God's expectation to us, and then
his death. The Bible says, then he is burial is

(58:55):
still an attestation to the fact that he died, and
then his restorme finally his exaltation. It was after that
exaltation he said, go ye, therefore behold, I give you power.
He says, go ye, therefore he released us not just
with a message. He released us with a consciousness. If

(59:17):
the only thing you have is the message, without the consciousness,
you will live a defeated life. Let's pray with your
hands in one minute, Unlet's thank the Lord for what
we have heard and declare that this year twenty twenty
four from this year. Hence you are determined to work

(59:37):
in the victory that has been wrought for you in Christ,
that your life and your Christian experience will be all
the way extraordinary. Your life will be a rich capture
of all the multifaceted dimensions of God, his wisdom, his power,
his grace, his prosperity, his influence, his increased That your
life will be a representation of dominion. And from a

(01:00:01):
standpoint of that victory, you will represent God to your world.
You will represent God to whatever geography you are assigning.
Take a minute to pray. We're rapping up in the
name of Jesus. You are declaring, by the power of
the Holy Spirit, I'm tired of living a nominal Christian life.
I'm tired of living and frustrated Christaian life. I am
ready to return to the order, the order that makes

(01:00:24):
for power, the order that releases grace, grace, and things
being multiplied onto you through the knowledge, through the knowledge
of God and of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible
says we are just workmanship, recreated in Christ onto good
works which God had before ortained that we should work

(01:00:45):
in them in Jesus' name. We pray in Jesus' name.
We pray. Now. Let me encourage you as I go
to take my seat. Please, I want you to take
the time between now and the evening session, take the
time to pray and prepare your heart. You have made

(01:01:06):
a lot of sacrifices to be at this conference. Do
not waste it. Let it be a defining moment, a
well together, a defining moment. You don't have to be
ministry to be that determined. God wants to give value
to your first thing, value to your prayer, value to
your consecration. He wants to give value by giving you
the underlying revelation that powers all things. A new fridge

(01:01:30):
without it's connecting to the source of electricity will not
allow it to work. A new television. When your gadget
does not come on, even though it is brand new,
it is because you have not known how to connect
it to the source. What gives life to every activity
in the spirit is this revelation, It says, upon this rock,
what rock, the revelation of Christ and the revelation of

(01:01:53):
our oneness in His victory. Don't forget this. It is
not only the revelation of who cries, is now on
account of the entire journey of his death, burial, and resurrection.
But the implication of that to you and I today,
that is where strength comes from deficient six verse ten. Finally, brethren,

(01:02:14):
he says, be strong in the Lord, and in the
power of His might. Amplify it. Says, draw your strength
from your union with Him. Draw your strength. There is
an abundance of strength that is infused into your spirit man,
causing you to expel in an extraordinary way, and that

(01:02:34):
that strength is drawn from the consciousness of your union
with Him. Please do invite everybody as many who you
can draw to Jesus, both online and offline, unless trust
God to step higher. In addition to all that we
have received in course of this conference, and in the

(01:02:55):
name of Jesus, I pray for someone that at the
end of this conference your life will be a true portrait,
a reflection of the victory that the Resurrection has brought
to the saints. The Lord bless you. In Jesus' name,
we pray
