Access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees that I don't really need it. Inflation is killing me! Who cares? Big retailers making record profits! That's why we support the German Marshall Credit Card Bill! See, banks and credit unions help small businesses make payroll. This bill would cut the vital resources they need. While increasing Megastore profits, they deserve it. Don't they? Tell Congress, stop the German Marshall Money Grave for corporate megastores. Paid for it by the Electronic Payments Coalition.
Hallelujah! Let's lift our hands to the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords. Magnificent in your ways. Unfathomable wisdom. Go ahead and bless him. The fountain of light. It is in your light that we see light. Shabakha Sokran Dekebelekatosa Prasekebelekatosa. Lift your hands, lift your voices. And give him praise. And throw him glory. And throw him honor. And throw him power. The one who defines the boundaries of all things. Aebala Shabra Gedebelekatosa. Without him was not anything made that was made.
In him was light. And that light was the light of man. Blessings and honor, glory and power. They are scrived unto you in Shakyam. Someone bless his name. Aebala Koshalakraskebelekatosa. They all wise God. Exalted above the nations of the earth. We worship, we bow our hearts and our lives before you. For in Jesus, much less name we have prayed. Ask him for an encounter by his spirit. Give me a definite encounter. Go ahead and pray. Now the Lord is that spirit, the Bible says.
And where the spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. Who shall ascend to the hill of the Lord? And who shall stand in his holy place? He that has clean hands and a pure heart. Who has not lifted up his soul unto vanity. No swan deceitfully. The Bible says he shall receive a blessing from the Lord. Righteousness from the God of his salvation. This is the generation of them that seek thee. That seek thy face, O Jacob. Hallelujah. Praise the name of the Lord. The Bible says, call unto me and I will answer. I will show you, not just tell you. I will show you great and mighty things which don't know us not.
Hallelujah. There is a realm of knowledge that starts by admitting your limitation. When you admit that you are limited as far as ascending that dimension is concerned. That awareness sponsors your motivation to call. Lord, help me. I know but not enough. Help me. I see but not enough. We see in part, first Corinthians 8 and verse 2. And if any man thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know. There is a benchmark in the spirit that translates to every result desired. There is a light requirement is fixed and non-negotiable. Just because you have light does not mean you have light enough to be able to translate those spiritual realities into your experience. Someone cry for lights tonight.
My heart is open. My spirit is prepared to access superior light. That was the true light which lighted every man. That was the true light. Someone praying. Shalika Paruska Te Brande gave a lakosyata. Light from heaven. Light from heaven. Coming with glory. Light from heaven. Bringing understanding. Light from heaven. Allowing for ascendance in the spirit. Light. Even among the stars he said one different from another in glory. In glory. Maybe not in size but in glory. That among the stars one different from another in glory. Hallelujah.
Praise the name of the Lord. Praise the name of the Lord. Praise the name of the Lord. Praise the name of the Lord. I just felt stared in my spirit before coming while I was praying preparing for this meeting. I started sensing a very strong manifestation of the healing andointing. And I know that the miracle service is next week. But you see the thing about the path of the spirit is that the Bible says the Holy Spirit has a unique ability to such the mind of the Father. No man knows what is in the spirit of man, the heart of man saved the spirit of that man. The Holy Spirit has only strained access into the heart of the Father. And he is able to draw out that which is consistent with his will. The entire economy of the kingdom revolves around the will of God.
So at every given point. Hallelujah. The kingdom operates with respect to that which God desires per time and per season. Any action that is outside the will of God at any given time. Even if it is good, it's time rebellion. Rebellion is not necessarily evil. Rebellion is any activity that is not sponsored and motivated. Whose goal and intent is not actualizing the will of God. A very good project can be rebellion when it is brought within the lens of the will of God. So it is important to be organized, but it is also important to be designing. It says, I will stand upon my watch and I will set myself upon the tower that I will see what you will see on tour. Hallelujah. Let me just speak a word over those who are trusting God for healing. I have explained to you the necessity of the healing ministry.
The healing in 19 is a unique and gracing of God to the body. Because according to the dealings of God with man as revealed in Scripture. Every man is only given the privilege of one body per lifetime. Please listen, you are only given the privilege of your spirit being hosted in one body. And what you call lifetime is the moment from birth until the day you are done with your assignment and your transit in glory. Or until the day your body deteriorates to the extent to which it no longer can host your spirit. There is a health requirement for your spirit to remain in your body. And when your body is deteriorated beyond a certain threshold, it was designed in the dealings of God that the spirit will have to live. Hallelujah. So every time the devil plagues you with sickness, it is a measure of death attempting to be administered to your body.
The assignment of the healing in 19 is to bring your body back to the will of God and to help sponsor longevity. A body has now prepared for me. Hallelujah. When you understand this, your heart will be open to receive the healing power of Jesus. Please lay your hands, whether for you or for your loved ones. Even if it is for one person, let's honor this instruction and then we will go to the teaching of tonight. I believe. I believe. Lord I believe. Lord I believe. Such great anointing. I believe. Lord I believe. Lord I believe.
that spirit of infirmity right now I command every devil that has found its way into the bodies of God's people I conditions God conditions in the name of Jesus the son of the living God I stretch my hands by faith from nation to nation region to region we bring you life even by the spirit be healed right now in the name of Jesus be healed right now in the name of Jesus from the crown of your head to the souls of your feet can't I be healed now my grains be healed now I conditions be healed now blood conditions be healed now peptic also be healed now bone conditions be
healed now terminal diseases of all sorts in the name of Jesus be healed now and we pray for those who align down upon the blend the bed of affliction made the same power that raised Christ from the dead translated him from 80s and brought him back to the earth I declare that same power will take you from the bed of affliction and keep you standing on your feet now in the name of Jesus Christ and everyone who came here with any kind of discomfort by whatever name it is called and identified in the name of Jesus I speak to you the resurrected King the one who has risen the resurrection and the life he minister's life to your body now weakening to your body now brand new organs by the spirit in the name of
Jesus Christ thank you Father for in Jesus mighty and much less name we have prayed please be seated good evening God bless you you're welcome to church this is the house of God and it is always a profound honor to serve God's people with the truth of his word because I've always said that the church is a very potent force as far as societal transformation is concerned Alilia the church has a unique convergence of people that represent all walks of life Alilia the legal practitioner has no business administering medical solutions to a sick patient because they are confined they are limited to the
judiciary a doctor has no business standing to do a judicial work for instance so all other fields are limited and they are mandated by the laws that govern their profession to remain and restrict themselves within the jurisdiction of their practice but the church and the ministry of the world as we know has a unique ability to serve people from all walks of life and this is very important it then means that any society at any given time is largely a product of the orientation that comes especially from the church among many other religious institutions because many people will make decisions and those decisions come from the orientation that they have received in church it is a reason why the ministry of the world must be taken with every sense of seriousness and responsibility because sometimes destiny
defining decisions will come as a result of the truths or otherwise that you are serving God's people and if that which you call light is not true light their decisions hence the consequences that come from those decisions will be a reflection of the limitation of the man of God so the Bible mandates that we study to show ourselves approved on to God walk men that need not to be ashamed even as we rightly divide the world it is a reason why God has coordinated all grace that is required for our sufficiency so that when we stand to serve God's people both those who are here online and the many across the nations of the earth that even though we are trapped in human frail vessels but that there is the activity of the Holy Spirit that can help us to be to serve the truths of
the kingdom with accuracy and with confidence. Hallelujah. This is very important I take my job as a man of God very seriously because I understand not only am I accountable on to God but when God gives you the gift of influence influence I told you is a very delicate product with it you can destroy and with it you can build. Hallelujah yes so when people become obedient to the faith and loyal to that which God communicates through you you must ensure that you are serving the people truths indeed life applicable destiny changing truths. Hallelujah and I can assure you by God that there is no week you will come here and then leave with your time being wasted. Hallelujah that every time you come here you can be
sure that you will be served the truth of God's word with power with grace you will live wiser you will live more engraced more strategically positioned to number one live an effective spiritual life and then that it translates to every aspect of your life you believe that shout out loud amen. Hallelujah. Tonight I wanted to let me your attention let me your dedicated focus as we teach there are times that Jesus would say very very very I say unto you there are other times you will see. Access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees but I don't really need it. Inflation is killing me. Who cares big retailers and making record profits. That's why we support the Durban Marshall credit card bill see things in credit unions help small businesses make payroll this bill would cut the vital resources they need while increasing mega store profits they deserve it
don't they. Tell Congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate megastores paid for by the electronic payments coalition.

They deserve it don't they. Tell Congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate megastores paid for by the electronic payments coalition. He would demand their attention because of the preciousness of what he wants to say. Hallelujah. When it has to do with the ministry of the world you can be Mary or you can be Martha. Martha was worried about so many things and Mary sat at the feet of Jesus and Jesus said Martha Martha you are worried and you are angry about you know Mary is not standing up to come and help you. He
says but one thing is needful and that Mary has chosen to sit at the master's feet. Hallelujah. You need to learn to sit at his feet and give your destiny dedicated focus when it has to do with the ministry of the world in the name of Jesus the Son of the living God knowing God accurately please write it down knowing God accurately tonight I want to show us prophetically the biblical road map to knowing God and obtaining stature and power and grace in the spirit. Hallelujah. There is a way God designed himself to be known as fast the world of men is concerned and it is important for us to know how God prescribed that he's explored and known so that we're not in confusion learning God in very wrong ways and then arriving at many erroneous conclusions about
God and that will be to the detriment of our Christian experience. Hallelujah. Are we together? Now generally speaking the Bible lets us know that when it has to do with raining in life raining upon the earth the Bible says that the requirement is number one that you must become a graceful recipient of the gift of righteousness and then number two abundance of grace the Bible says that they who have received the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness he leaves them with an assurance that they are the kinds of believers who will reign in life a abundance of grace and then the gift of righteousness Romans 5 17 that if by one month of fence death reign by one much more day which receive the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness the gift of
righteousness only comes through Jesus Christ believing in his substitutionary sacrifice. Hallelujah and then the Bible says that when it has to do with dominion upon the earth you do not just need grace you need abundance of grace it's important that you have that at the back of your mind and then of course you know that the Bible says grace and peace this same grace that the Bible says we need a lavish proportion of it says grace and peace is multiplied through knowledge. Hallelujah so there is a connection between their abundance of grace and their abundance of knowledge that grace and peace second Peter one from verse two is multiplied through knowledge everybody say knowledge in this case the knowledge of God and of our Lord Jesus Christ please take notes the knowledge of God there are many things that do not minister
grace even though their knowledge there is an exact body of truth that translates to grace the Bible says grace and peace please keep that scripture is not just multiply through the knowledge of many good things it has to be the knowledge of God and of our Lord Jesus Christ. Hallelujah so there are many kinds of knowledge that are not necessarily a waste but when it has to do with accessing grace as design in this kingdom it is the knowledge of God and of our Lord Jesus Christ that means the more you know God and his son Jesus Christ the more indeed and inexperience you will access grace. Hallelujah this is very important John 17 and verse three the Bible says and this is eternal life Jesus is praying that they may know thee the only true God and Jesus whom thou has sent the experience
of eternal life the activation of the full potential of that which is captured in the Zoe life is dependent on the knowledge of the true God and Jesus whom he has sent this is very important in this kingdom knowledge is a say shall as far as walking in dominion and walking in victories concern no matter how well intentioned you are if and when you decide to dwell in ignorance there is no hope for walking in the reality of the life of God. Hallelujah it's important for us to understand this now Matthew chapter 16 let's begin with a very interesting discussion between Jesus and the disciples from verse 13 it wasn't unusual for Jesus to probe the disciples understanding by asking them questions and he would lead them to just argue among themselves and then eventually he would clarify this was one of such moments when Jesus came to the post of
Cecilia Philippi the Bible says he asked the disciples saying who do men say that I the son of man? Hallelujah isn't it interesting you would think he already answered his question because he called himself the son of man you would think that was the answer who do men say that I the son of man? That means he was looking for something else there was something he wanted them to understand was 14 the Bible says they said some say you are John the Baptists some say you are Elias Elijah now and other say you are Jeremiah and some are even confused they don't know they just said you are one of the prophets so Jesus is asking a question here who do men say that I am in other words I want to buy from the perspective of society what do they think of me when they see me walk miracles when they see me multiply bread when they see me teach
and communicate doctrine with power what is their conclusion about my person and the disciples said this is a very good question because we've also been asking some say you are John the Baptists because at that time John had been beheaded are we together now so probably they think you are incarnate maybe you came again you know and so on and so forth others you know because they know again that there is a spiritual protocol they have been taught that men can come in the spirit and power of certain graces and certain mantles and they believe that you are one of those prophets and others believe you are Jeremiah and Jesus now said okay you've worked with me you have enjoyed the privilege of intimacy you are closer to me than those who are afar it says but whom say ye that I am very important question was stopping at 15 but whom say ye in other words I'm interested in you show me the advantage that your intimacy with me has done as far as redefining my person to you now you
have an advantage that they do not have they are speaking as people who are from afar so we can permit and forgive them because they are speaking from the lens of their ignorance alongside the distancing relationship but now you have had the privilege to be mentored directly by me what is your conclusion in light of the advantage of intimacy and the disciples were surprised that even though they enjoyed access and they enjoyed intimacy the truth is that they did not know him the same experience of those from afar was their experience even though they were close and it was only Peter speaking by the Spirit he never said we know he said I know whom thou art thou art Christ the son of the living God he never called him Jesus you see so he was speaking not in the flesh because he was never called Jesus until the word became flesh are we
together now yes he never called him Jesus thou art Christ the son of the living God and he said verse 17 he said blessed are thou Simon son of Jonah for flesh and blood that means this revelation does not reside within the realm of flesh and blood but my father and then he continues now he mentions the word church I just wanted you to understand that it is very important that in the believers Johnny to growth to stature and living out the fullness of your prophetic destiny when it has to do with the subject of knowledge you must be guided no one that Jesus speaking about the Holy Spirit said in John 16 give us verse 8 please or Verstatin let's just go to Verstatin for a sake of time how be it in fact verse 12 says I have many things to tell you Jesus is speaking but he cannot bear them now do you know what that means the spiritual
equipping that will make my word spirit and life to you you do not yet have it are we together yes I have stretched your ability to receive without the assistance of the Holy Spirit I cannot go further if you must understand anything from this point there is the activity of regeneration and the infilling of the spirit that must happen the other things I have taught you is what Paul brought in the Pauline episode there was no way they would have understood the dynamics of redemption and how to live the victorious life in that state they had to be translated and God raised Paul to be a continuation of those things that Jesus told them you cannot bear them now the teachings of Paul even for Peter and the disciples don't mentor by Jesus they acknowledge that these things were heard so it would have sounded like nonsense if Jesus tried to say it are we together now yes but knowledge is very important in this kingdom now I have taught you and I wanted to please listen I repeat myself
many times for the sake of emphasis there are six dimensions of knowledge the believer must pursue six dimensions of spiritual knowledge if you want to understand the scope of not just knowing God there are many kinds of knowledge that are useful some are supportive knowledge please listen before you write there are two levels of knowledge generally for the believer there is what we call foundational knowledge and there is what we call supportive knowledge supportive knowledge means when the foundation is there they come as an added advantage to sponsor your stability are we together if you do not have a foundational knowledge no matter what you get a supportive knowledge or Christian experience will be lopsided let me give it six of them very quickly number one according to scripture especially the Pauline episode we are taught that these six foundational I'm not just talking of doctrine like he will
six no no I'm not talking of foundational doctrine I'm talking that in your pursuit of knowledge that means if you see a believer now who is saved and tells you that I want I want to act to content for spiritual knowledge if you want to guide that person at first you restrict that person's pursuing knowledge to these six dimensions are you ready number one that you must know God and Jesus his son these according to the Pauline episode is the correct protocol for approaching spiritual knowledge you must know God and then Jesus his son Proverbs chapter nine and verse 10 please write it we're working this there's so much to cover the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and the knowledge of the holy is understanding that means at the point where you begin to pursue the knowledge of God you are truly having spiritual understanding
alleluia this is very very important in first Peter chapter I mean in Daniel 1132 popular scripture the B-Parts says but the people that do know they are God they shall be strong and they shall do exploits there is an advantage to knowing God I like Ephesians one 15 to 19 this is Paul again this our Paul again mentoring the church in Ephesians wherefore I also after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and love unto all saints verse 16 reading to 19 sees not to give thanks for you making mention of you in my prayer 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ the father of glory may give on to you watch this now the spirit of the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him not the knowledge of it the knowledge of him the eyes of your understanding verse 18
says been enlightened that you may know what is the hope of is calling and what is the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints and what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us world who believe according to the working of his mighty power so six dimensions of knowledge when you want to pursue genuine spiritual growth and maturity you must know God and Jesus Christ is number two you must know yourself in light of who Christ is you must know yourself in light of who Christ is some 49 and 20 very powerful scripture the Bible says man that is in honor and on the standard not is like a beast that perish it alleluia second only to knowing God it is important that in pursuing growth and maturity as revealed by scripture you must know yourself
in light of who God is alleluia in first Peter chapter 2 and verse 9 very powerful scripture it tells us that we are a chosen generation a royal priesthood and holy nation a peculiar people that we should show for the praises of him that has called us out of darkness and into his marvelous light alleluia when you read Ephesians chapter 2 from verse 1 to 6 just right for sake of for sake of time Paul took out time there to begin to give us a very theological background as to the implication I have taught you here that from a theological standpoint every time you discuss man with respect to what Christ has done there are only two things that become the basis of your discussion number one is our oneness with Christ the implication of our oneness and number two our positional advantage
away together now access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees that I don't really need it inflation is killing me who cares big retailers making record profits that's why we support the Durban Marshall credit card bill see things in credit unions help small businesses make payroll this bill would cut the vital resources they need while increasing megastore profits they deserve it don't they tell Congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate megastores paid for by the electronic payments coalition access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees that I don't really need it inflation is killing me who cares big retailers making record profits that's why we support the Durban Marshall credit card bill see things in credit unions help small businesses make payroll this bill would cut the vital resources they need while increasing megastore profits they deserve it don't they tell Congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate megastores paid for by the
electronic payments coalition on account of the substitutionary sacrifice of Jesus Christ man has been brought into oneness the Bible says he that is joined to Christ is one spirit and then Paul helped us to understand our positional advantage that that word together or together with Christ is a very profound prophetic description of the believer's position now in light of what has happened so you need to know who you are in light of who Christ is number three you need to know your place in destiny and in God's prophetic program I have taught you this it's very important you need to know your place your relevance is in your ability to keep and maintain your position the provisions that are accorded your life are with respect to knowing your place it's very important you must know your place in God's program you must know your place in destiny look
for 16 and 17 Jesus in the temple reading the Messianic prophecy that was about him the Bible says he found where it was written concerning him and then at the end of that rendition he said today his description fulfilled in your ears Hebrews 10 and seven says low I come in the volume of the book as it is written of me to do thy will oh god alleluia it's very very important every believer must be trained to know your place in God's in destiny and in God's prophetic program number four that the second the fourth dimension of knowledge is that you must understand the mysteries and the principles of the kingdom this is very important you must understand the mysteries and the principles of the kingdom Job 38 33 to 35 write it for reference know as down the
ordinances of heaven and can't now set the dominion thereof in the earth a discussion between God and Joe some 82 and verse five popular scripture here they know not neither will they understand they walk on in darkness and all the foundations of the earth are out of course Matthew 1311 Jesus is still teaching for it has been given on to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven alleluia the kingdom operates using a modus operandi there is a pattern there is a principle and every time you want to see the glory of God revealed there is a mandate upon you that you must know the ways of God number five what is the fifth dimension of knowledge if you must press into an excelling spiritual life you must understand man as the highest of God's creation and then you must understand the world system the cosmos it is not
enough to understand the principles of the kingdom you must understand man as the zenith the highest of God's creation and then you must understand the cosmos this is important when we discuss this we consider some eight from verse one to six remember some eight one to six oh Lord our God how excellent is your name he says all of that when I consider the works of your hands and all of that when we get to verse five he now says what is man of verse four what is man that thou at mindful of him not the son of man that thou visit test him I hope was still together I'm showing you that if you want to explore your spiritual growth it is important that you follow this sequence otherwise something will be lopsided as far as your spiritual understanding is concerned you must know man because this is the world of men some one one five was sixteen the Bible says the heaven of heavens belong to the Lord but the earth has he
given to the children of man if you must excel in the cosmos you need to understand the world of man alleluia in fact in Matthew 10 16 I believe Jesus was teaching them and you notice when Jesus began to teach if you study the Beatitudes theologically Jesus began to teach them relating the kingdom with and contrasting it with the cosmos there were times where he would teach them things that were largely eternal and spiritual but in many instances he would now delve to help them understand the cosmos this was one of such discussions behold I send you forth a ship in the midst of wolves it says be therefore wise as sapiens all through scripture a sapiens has always been associated with evil Satan the devil are we together now and here Jesus is saying that you need to borrow the wisdom of the sapiens and the character of the
dove if you must excel in the cosmos very strange teaching for the simple information that you are a ship in the midst of wolves he says there are two dimensions of wisdom and approach you must have you need to be as wise as a sapiens and you need to be as harmless as a dove and the only place in scripture where you learn the wisdom of the sapiens is Egypt you will have to go to Egypt to learn the wisdom of the sapiens alleluia and the Bible says as harmless as a dove so number six very quickly what is the final dimension of knowledge that the believer must have you must know your adversary the devil I'm doing a recap for those of us who have been following the series but this is important I need to say this so you understand what I'm explaining today you must know your adversary the devil the devil is not your friend no sir the devil
is not a confident the Bible calls him the thief John 1010 the thief a description that Jesus himself gave many bad names Satan is called he's called him Madara he's called an accuser of the brethren he's called a thief in this case that he comes except he does not come except to steal to kill and to destroy first Peter chapter five Apostle Peter was teaching us in verse eight and nine he says be sober first Peter five eight and nine be sober be vigilant he says because your adversary the devil as a roaring lion walk out about seeking whom he may devour verse nine he says whom resist steadfast in the faith whom resist it is within your power let me tell you this no matter what you know as far as spiritual information is concerned if you do not understand Satan and the
dark world the demonic kingdom you will be incapacitated in ways you cannot imagine are we together now yes when I was discussing this I taught you that as an expert when they teach you about accidents the goal is not for you to go and die in a car crash but you can never be called a professional there is a whole course on plane crashes when you study aviation and you are being trained to become a professional pilot they simulate many kinds of plane crashes and they teach you how to circumvent them it is on account of that you are satisfied as a professional pilot are we together there are many believers in an attempt to remain positive have ignored the reality of the dark world Jesus himself it revealed many aspects of Satan it was Jesus in fact our understanding about the operation of Jesus as far as the gospel operation of Satan as far as the gospel is concerned was revealed by Jesus himself and then
Paul came and structured the satanic kingdom and he said do not be unaware of the wilds or the devices of the devil do not be ignorant he says so you must know God you must know yourself in light of who Christ is you must know your place in destiny and God's prophetic program you must understand the mysteries and principles of the kingdom you must understand man and the cosmos and then you must understand your adversary the devil show me any believer who would have invested a major portion of his work exploring these dimensions of knowledge I show you one who it will be impossible to be a weak believer Aleluia strength in the king access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees that I don't really need it inflation is killing me who cares big retailers making record profits that's why

God this is very important I hope I'm still with you while we're still together four channels to knowing God that everybody who now wants to know God there are four channels number one is scripture the first recommendation as far as the knowledge of God is concerned is scripture our first part of call as believers who seek to know God and to know Jesus is scripture Aleluia the bible tells us in John chapter one from was one to three in the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God verse two says the same was in the beginning with God three says all things were made by him and without him was not anything made that was made so the word is God and scripture is very important Aleluia this is very very important scripture reveals the
character of God and scripture reveals the methodologies of God number two very quickly the second channel for learning and knowing God is a careful study on his names remember that the names of God capture various dimensions of his power and his might the names of God exodus chapter three thirteen to fifteen exodus three thirteen to fifteen Moses said unto God behold when I come to the children of Israel and shall say unto them the God of your fathers have sent me unto you and they shall say unto me what is his name what shall I say unto them fourteen now and God said unto Moses I am that I am he said thus shall thou say to the children of Israel I am had sent me to you fifteen now he says and God said listen more over to Moses thus shall thou say to
the children of Israel the Lord God of your fathers the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob had sent me to you he says this is my name forever and this is my memorial unto all generations now go to chapter six same exodus chapter six from verse one then the Lord said unto Moses we're reading to the street don't be tired of writing scripture thou shall he says now shall thou see what I will do to Pharaoh for with a strong hand shall he let them go and with a strong hand shall he drive them out of his land verse two and God speak unto Moses saying I am the Lord the street and I appeared unto Abraham unto Isaac and unto Jacob by the name of God Almighty he says but by my name Jehovah was I not known to them
so God reveals himself according to his names in fact the various names of God that we know from scripture as you have been taught were trapped there were experiences manifestations of the power the wisdom the grace of God every time they saw God moving a dimension that was foreign to them they would trap it in a name and build a memorial around it so that every time you wanted to learn that dimension of God you are referred to that name that's how we came about with Jaira Sikenu are we together now and all of these versions of his name so four channels to knowing God number one scripture number two the names of God number three Jesus Christ this is powerful Jesus Christ himself came as an explanation of God I told you that Jesus came among the many reasons why he came up to the earth was as a manuscript
and a marking script he came as a correction to our understanding about God are we together that the prior knowledge that the prophets and the patriarchs had had about God because until Jesus came no one could know God accurately until Jesus came there were gaps in their understanding of God why because they had to depend on the perception of any prophet who was in charge at that time to reveal God to them the possibility of a personal experience with God as we know widespread was not given to them as a privilege there were few people who either by the election of grace or just by reason of certain covenants had the privilege of encountering God but as a nation and as a people even though God's people they had to interpret they had to depend on the interpretation of God that was given to them by the prophets and the prophets did their best but they made a lot of mistakes there were many things they credited to God that God
had no handling are we together and I hope you know when you study scripture you will see that even among the prophetic in the Old Testament there was a doubling between authentic work with God and there were times they delve into divination there were times where so there were many perspectives that they brought together and in ancient times anything that was beyond the realm of science and district dimensional realm they largely credited to God so Jesus came as an explanation he came as a correction of our perception about God that means using the lens of the person Jesus we can judge every other prophet and every other person who has said anything about God whatever they said about God we bring it to the lens of Jesus as the incarnate now are we together and then we test what they said God was as against what Jesus came to manifest and anything that we find in defiance or in contrast to what Jesus was revealing then we knew
that something had to be corrected about their understanding of God is the reason why they got angry every time Jesus called himself God or the Son of God they said you're a young boy who was born in our presence here how would you dare say that you are God they were angry especially the scribes and the Pharisees he said before your your father Abraham I was and they wanted to stone him they said this guy's blasphemy has gotten too much let's just kill him before him teaches this nonsense across the city they were uncomfortable but you see the truth is that Jesus came as a revelation of the father you find all that captured in John synoptic account chapter 1 from verse 1 to 6 the Bible says the word became flesh and then it dwelt among us and we beheld his glory even as of the only begotten of the father full of grace and truth so he was the word incarnate he walked upon the earth he was chapter 1 God who in sundry times and divas man aspect was
in time pass through the prophets had in this last days was too spoken to us through his son whom he had appointed air of all things by whom also he had made the world's mastery now the Bible says who been the brightness of his glory and the express image of his person so Jesus came as the express image of the father that means if you had never seen the father you had never related with the father if you looked at Jesus he came as an explanation an accurate explanation of the father why do we know that Jesus represented the father properly because the father himself gave a public word of commendation he said this is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased and he mandated creation to hear him are we together so we learn God as we study Jesus finally
the fourth channel for learning and knowing God is through experience there is a place for experience Job 42 and verse 5 it was Job who taught us this through his pain I have heard of the by the hearing of the ear it says but now my eye see at the you can know God through experience first John chapter 1 from verse 1 we're reading to 5 Aleluia praise the name of the Lord I'm giving you a lot of scripture write it in Jesus name and your sound doctrine access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees but I don't really need it inflation is killing me who cares big retailers making record profits that's why we support the Durban Marshall credit card bill see things in credit unions help small businesses make payroll this bill would cut the vital resources they need while increasing mega store profits they deserve it
don't they tell Congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate megastores paid for by the electronic payments coalition access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees but I don't really need it inflation is killing me but who cares big retailers making record profits that's why we support the Durban Marshall credit card bill see things in credit unions help small businesses make payroll this bill would cut the vital resources they need while increasing mega store profits they deserve it don't they tell Congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate megastores paid for by the electronic payments coalition Jesus much less name we have prayed John one let's do one to five you won't believe that I've not even started my teaching just night but this is important write it down that which was from the beginning which we have heard which we have seen with our eyes are we together which we have looked upon
and our hands have handled of the world of life verse two for the life was manifested and we have seen it this way eyewitnesses and bear witness and show unto you that eternal life which was with the father and was manifest unto us verse three that which we have seen and heard declare we onto you that you also may have fellowship with us and truly our fellowship is with the father and with his son Jesus Christ two more verses and these things right we onto you that your joy might be full the last verse now this then is the message he says which we have heard of him and declare onto you that God is light and in him there is no darkness Apostle John is in listen we were eyewitnesses we walked with Jesus we sat with him he taught us we were direct products of his mentorship and so when we teach you you must be able to believe believe that we're not
just teaching you cunningly device fables you can know God through experience alleluia i wish you together let's pray in this beautiful one minute jesus silla kapo sabranda kapala ko siata thank you for understanding alleluia ask chapter 17 something happened in Athens ask chapter 17 let's begin our reading from verse 16 to 17 then we jump to 22 to 24 now watch this the bible says while Paul waited for them at Athens his spirit was stared in him when he saw the city wholly given to idolatry this was Paul the Apostle he entered into Athens
and he saw that the people were given to idolatry verse 17 therefore disputed he in the synagogue with the Jews and with the devout persons and in the market daily with them that met him he kept arguing and said listen something is wrong you people are zealous people but this is idolatry jump to verse 22 the bible says then Paul stood in the midst of the mars heel and said ye men of Athens i perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious verse 3 23 now for as i passed by he says and beheld your devotions so this way a people who were zealous and committed i found an altar with this inscription to the unknown god only therefore ignorantly
worship this ignorance your devotion worshipping an unknown god he says i have come to give you clarity about that god because when i came into Athens i saw a lot of religiosity he said you are even too superstitious use your the mind of your imagination to imagine a city everywhere you went there were monuments there were traditional practices everybody was suggesting anything and they had to build an altar they say we know this much whoever this god is and they put an inscription there we don't know you but we'll keep worshipping you what a tragedy to the unknown god how do you become so devotee to an unknown god worshipping an unknown god how do you know he has answered you how do you know you are not in error who corrects who and by what standard keep that scripture there please i want you to look at that scripture very
carefully as i passed by you know what that meant Paul i like Paul Paul just kept going around Athens from one region to the other and he said everybody was bowing down worshipping others had a set of knowledge there were ideas people were mentoring others and yet there was widespread ignorance in Athens and Paul said you even built an altar and you openly wrote an inscription on it to the unknown god in other words we are so devoted we love this god and we wish we could know him but since he has chosen not to reveal himself to us our devotion continues even in ignorance does that sound like a generation does that sound like an individual if a whole territory can worship an unknown god there are many people today who have died to an unknown god there are many people today who have argued about an unknown god there are many people today respectfully
speaking preaching about an unknown god advocating doing an event doing evangelism to an unknown god bringing seeds I think giving to an unknown god and Paul said i have come to declare him to you let's look at verse 24 it says god that made the world and all things daring saying that his lord of heaven and earth dwelled not in temples made with hands and when you begin to read he started explaining to them now he was bringing perspective to this unknown god please look up do you know ladies and gentlemen that what happened in Athens is still true in many many lives today there are many people who have written songs to an unknown god received all kinds of pain to an unknown god serving in a church that they believe is owned by an
unknown god writing books dedicated to an unknown god this is from a standpoint of love i hope you understand me the goal is to give us perspective is it not amazing the zeal of the average Christian in Africa Africa is about one of the most religious continents passionate people i mean you is it spiritual exercises of widespread fasting is it spiritual exercise of or not to spiritual authorities i mean you find the church of the Lord Jesus Christ in many regards in Africa you find it down middle is there is devotion in a way if you've had the privilege of traveling across the globe even whether it is in your mind or physically it will still achieve the same result are we together and you see the kind of devotion there are priests across the globe in the christendom in every other religious expression you will see the sacrifices
consecrations fastings abstinence devotion and you are wondering this widespread devotion there are parents who have quarreled their children be well god is not happy with you the question is which god how about we servants of the Lord Jesus Christ we have taught series and series about god we have spoken about heaven we have cried on crusade grounds beckoning on thousands praying for millions to come to this god and they respond faithfully then they walk up to us and then we lead them with a say after me god or they are not Jesus and at the end of it respectfully speaking largely but the preacher and the new convert and not even a way of who they are talking to Hallelujah
no wonder there is usually a problem of conviction in light of situations in light of you know negative situations especially so you find out that there is a vacillation of convictions today we stand strong i know god will heal me i know it shall end up in praise and then eventually our convictions begin to dwindle because in truth we are not sure we made both full statements but now we are not sure again you see it's already happening to so many people on one hand we say no this god if it is my god i know him i know you will come through for this family i know he can leave me now access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees but i don't really need it inflation is killing me but who cares big retailers making record profits that's why we support the Durban Marshall credit card bill see things in credit unions help small businesses make payroll
this bill would cut the vital resources they need while increasing mega store profits they deserve it don't they tell congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate mega stores paid for by the electronic payments coalition access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees but i don't really need it inflation is killing me but who cares big retailers making record profits that's why we support the Durban Marshall credit card bill see things in credit unions help small businesses make payroll this bill would cut the vital resources they need while increasing mega store profits deserve it don't they tell congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate mega stores paid for by the electronic payments coalition then eventually we begin to negotiate so many things and i don't even know again god is it your will there are many people angry with god today because they were taught to believe in an unknown god and they believed in that unknown god and many things that they believed he would do were not done and in anger now
there are many many people who do not even want the mention of church do not want the mention of anything they say god has failed me i have a plethora of failure there's too much failure in my life what kind of a god is this i read in the bible that he's almighty i read in the bible that he's all powerful i read in the bible that the cattle on a thousand he belongs to him and here are my serving god loving him in church and then it looks like it does not want to attend to me do you know respectfully speaking sometimes people send me text messages and i know they are doing it sincerely they say opposed to since god has not had me this is my prayer request help me and tell him that we need yes sir and now you don't laugh at them at least i admit my ignorance that i don't know him you who claims to know him please help me the most important thing is his yes not who is talking letting just be aware that there are needs in my life like this as simple as this message is ladies and gentlemen what i'm about to share with you will
bring you liberation there is something if you do not know god in truth your life and your Christian experience will be full of assumption and gaps you will keep him promoted ministerially until the day you hit a wall and all those who are following you will at which god exactly how we worshiping and then i hope you know last i check i hope my facts are still right there are about 4,000 religions and growing and many of them are becoming similar now because there are pseudo expressions of one another so how do i know i am not in error how do i know the god i'm serving is the god of the bible there are all kinds of arguments and debates about god i like Paul Paul is teaching us something today that he taught the believers in Athens and so he gathered the people and said there is need for a conference immediately and it's a ladies and gentlemen first let me comment your zeal i see that you are even so superstitious imagine that you went to Athens
and you said this god you want you to give me money and everybody will come and say oh yeah god where are you another person say god does not need your money say god give me back my money i was told that you are too rich another person says god wants you to first and pray another person says god is not interested in first and prayer another person says god demands concentration and devotion respectfully and then another person doesn't matter so believers are now confused because remember all of this is to please this god and for many he still remains an unknown god someone says if you want him to bless you with increase do this another person says just believe him and give thanks and many believers are saying god can you come and help us clear the air who is right and for god we want to believe you sincerely but who are you no one that Moses asked that question he said who we like one tell Pharaoh now i hope you know Moses was trained in Egypt he
was supposed to be the next Pharaoh but he ran away so he said if i want tell Pharaoh god has sent me Pharaoh said their preacher i hope you know there are many gods in Egypt which of them now has sent you and Moses said before you send me before i go and disgrace myself and cause pain to the people please reveal yourself to me let my confidence be uncalled upon the truth of the god i have met and god said i am that i am i am that i am ladies and gentlemen every generation that have men and women who shoot that generation especially spiritually their impact and their exploit was directly connected to their genuine encounters with god make reference to my teaching the value of spiritual encounters but it's important for you to understand this many people have not taken the time to know god we can know about god but the knowledge of god now just as an example if
someone suddenly sent you a text now and says a person is in us right now and is about to preach in a conference because you know me and you know that except otherwise every Sunday i am here something about me with respect to my assignment will make you it will not it will not even be a prayer point are we together now there is something about god when you know even the prophetic will not threaten you again because you can judge it from the lens of your knowledge of god there is something about god when you know fear dies immediately because there is something about god that if you do not understand he will look like a killer who can destroy you and then in another place he looks like he's indefinitely merciful and yet the Bible captures all these dimensions of him as a lion and as a lamb you still find it there as a warrior and as a merciful god you still find it there are we together there were people that god took things from and they were
people god gave things to so which which god should i have the songs we see they are belong to you and even the air there we pray after singing that beautiful rendition and then an intelligent person will say but please my dear brother can you help me describe or explain for me this god you have served for 20 years i'm listening talk to me what are you going to say about him oh he's the creator of the heavens and the earth i can tell you this god is mighty and it says that's not what i'm asking you who is he if it is true that he wants to be known if it is true that he wants to be served if it is
true that he has sent me how do you represent a god you do not know now you say he has called you light he's called you salt he's an ambat you centuries an ambassador you even claim that he has sent you to your family like he sent Moses to Egypt so you stand before the altars that have plagued your family for years the happily knows who he's having and he will tell you i know him we were introduced there now you have come and you want to dislodge his power i don't argue but who is this god the prophets of bell they got to a point where they knew bell so much and the bible says they called upon bell and they were surprised probably for the first time in their prophetic journey bell disappointed them bell we do not we didn't expect that you would disappoint us to a point that they lacerated themselves before shone to an unknown god and Elijah said call him louder you claim you know him let him come and defend his name
and when it was time Elijah said now you watch the living god he set up 12 stones he said four water on it this one is not experiment there is something about god you must know four water fire is about to call he said add it again seven times and then he said clear the way and he lifted up his eyes he did not pray twice he did not pray three times the bible says fire came from heaven and leaked up the water hallelujah when david stood before goliath goliath looked at him and said am i a dog israel with all my might and experience who bring this small boy you want me to kill him in the way that will leave you with bad memories and when he was done talking i will show you the scripture later on david looks at him and says that is none of my business you see i did not come with the sword you should be afraid already that i'm coming to fight you and i did not come with the sword can you imagine
that you come to me with your balls and your spares but there is something i know about god i have come to you in a name he never said i came with a sling i came with a name that he has revealed i know what he can do i know what he can do those who know god indeed they shall be strong truly they shall be strong that you can sit death to the face and say i know who sent me believe us please hear me our stability especially in the days that are coming will not just be access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees but i don't really need it inflation is killing me but who cares big retailers and making record profits that's why we support the Durban Marshall credit card bill see things in credit unions help small businesses make payroll this bill would cut the vital resources they need while increasing megastore profits they deserve it don't they tell congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate megastores

and say god truly where are you oh you can know god accurately let's discuss this god now the first thing i want you to know about god is that the bible records that god is infinite please listen god is infinite Isaiah 40 and verse 28 please sit down it says there is no searching has download known has download heard that the everlasting god notice now the everlasting he calls him the lord are we together three names at once everlasting god the lord the creator of the ends of the earth he fainted not neither is he weary then the bible gives us a very profound information about god that from the start of your journey you should know that the best of your exploration will not do justice to who god is he says there is no searching of his understanding
he leaves you with that disclaimer that no matter how you are diligent there is only a small portion of god you will end up knowing relative to the vastness of his person you will never arrive in that journey he encourages you to go ahead with your exploration but he leaves you already with a message not to discourage you that this journey you will never arrive in it there is no end to the searching of god are we together now that does not mean you should not start but he's only informing you that you you will ask you so John in learning and knowing god you will come to the conclusion that there is no searching of his understanding the second thing about god you need to know is that there are three qualities of god that stand him out above all the singular difference between god and man it's not just that his creator and man is the creature
no that god is omnipresent i have taught you only potent and omniscient these are the three attributes of god he did not share with man so when the bible says we are partakers of his divine i hope you know that our partaking of his divine nature is not absolute is shared it is not every part of his divine nature we're brought into no there is a dimension of god that no man has tested his omnipresence his omnipotence and his omniscience to be omnipresent means to be everywhere at the same time there is no man in recorded history not from scripture and not from history who has been given the privilege of enjoying omnipresence where can i hide from your presence even if i go to it is the place of the dead the samis are still you are there the closest
person who perhaps would have qualified to experience it was the samis but even him was not granted that access he was only shown the things that would come prophetically and yet that was in types and shadows god is omnipresent meaning all places at the same time god does not have to move to see he has the all seen eye right from where he sits there is nothing the bible says keeping the hair on our head you the owner of the head how many hairs on your head and yet the bible says that eyes he can see he knows when one hair fall is he that idol that he can count the hair even if it was one person as a project you will still feel i'm explaining certain things for you about god his omnipresence the ability to be everywhere at the same time number two god is only potent the word potent means all powerful man is not all powerful our dominion authority
and power is derived it is always in partnership with the holy spirit in isolation to the holy spirit or in isolation to principles we do not have power the power that man wields whether scientifically or supernaturally is always derived please understand this so man is not omnipotent this is the reason why it is possible to pray for hundred people who are sick and sincerely even if you find eighty percent they might be one person you see that now yes there is a level of accuracy as far as the dispensing of power that no man has yet attained on to the bible tells us there is even a dimension of power reserved for an age that is not our own he says it's called the power of the age to come but that two diligence and alignment men can taste of that power even within this age I'm sure that those are the dimensions that
will be important to sponsor the end time revival the power of the age to come are we together God is omnipotent and then God is omniscient it was a possible who was mentoring the church in Corinth and he brought them into this understanding that we see impart and we prophesy impart can we imagine that that means the best of our revelatory grace the best of whatever it is that we have is still a part and a portion this is profound we know impact and we prophesy impact like I taught you when we're discussing can you imagine that I am now in this place there are several overflows to the basement and perhaps outside that the many who are connecting from across the globe can you imagine that if I am to interpret the crowd of people here I can only work based on what my eye has seen do you know why you do not have eyes all over you to remind you that you are finite finite insight finite envision you will think God would have put an eye like a
crown all around you so that you don't have to turn to the back but even that that you will still be limited next time you are looking for the difference between man and God even if you do not know him know this for a fact that there are things he did not share with man it is what makes him exclusive God by himself he's only present he's only potent he's omniscient you don't need to mentor God there is no book in heaven where God reads to get more knowledge no all that are documented in heaven is for the saints are we together now yes who will mentor him have you ever seen him in a lecture room Jesus only received knowledge and lecture when he became a man because he came as a pattern man to help men ascend to the heights of God but as God God does not know his knowledge is not progressive it is absolute all things come from him it is in his light that we see
light so what you call past present and future is only a reality that was framed to help you relate with God the truth is that that reality does not exist with God God does not even dwell in the realm of eternity because eternity is still a function of time is just a summation of time without end God lives beyond eternity his realm is now all things are present before him so what you call future and what you call yesterday yesterday only left you in God's mind yesterday and tomorrow his hands can reach into them there is no difference technology has helped you to understand how God relates you can rewind the movie there's something called rewind that's true there's something called fast forward these are all agencies to help you manipulate time so if you saw something and it skipped you you can enjoy it and rewind it as many times unfortunately that only happens with a
movie not your life when it passes is gone only the God of heaven can reach back into time and alleluia I wrote here and I wanted to write please for our profiting and dominion here on earth there are three aspects of God we must focus on access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees that I don't really need it inflation is killing me who cares big retailers and making record profits that's why we support the Durban Marshall credit card bill see things and credit unions help small businesses make payroll this bill would cut the vital resources they need while increasing megastore profits they deserve it don't they tell congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate megastores paid for by the electronic payments coalition access to affordable credit helps me pay my
employees that I don't really need it inflation is killing me who cares big retailers and making record profits that's why we support the Durban Marshall credit card bill see things and credit unions help small businesses make payroll this bill would cut the vital resources they need while increasing megastore profits they deserve it don't they tell congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate megastores paid for by the electronic payments coalition the fact that there is no such an office understanding haven't established the fact that learning God and knowing God is an eternal pursuit that even in heaven there are series of lectures through all the ages that will keep helping us to know God where there is no darkness where there is no evil where Satan and all demon spirits have been dealt with a new age has come the activity in heaven will not only be worshipping God we will still be learning God knowledge for the believer remains are we together
it will never come to an end there will never be anything like perfection of knowledge of God we will have perfect knowledge of all things as far as the world God created but not his person as far as his person is concerned we will learn him to all the ages what kind of a God is that there is no such an office understanding ladies and gentlemen what you are learning tonight was a personal conclusion of my own journey I got to a point where I was not satisfied with my knowledge of God I was tired about talking about a God whose certain dimensions had not seen and many people asked me several questions and said apostle how come I want to know God but I don't know what to do for someone who say okay go on fast you will know God and are faster than I still do not know God I want to know God another person says read your Bible he says no I understand all this I I want to know him I want to be confident and then the Holy Spirit began to lead me
through a journey that arrived at this message tonight that as far as the profiting of the believer is concerned on earth the interest of God as far as knowing him is only captured in three dimensions if you press to know these three things sufficient is that pursuit of God within the frame of this lifetime can I give them to you number one the first aspect of God that God desires all saints to know is his character please write when God mandates that we know him the first thing he demands that we know and understand about him is his character please write it down and taking away the confusion about knowing God every time the Bible demands that the saints know God every time your hunger in the spirit presses that you know God I'm taking away the confusion the first thing you should press to know is his character exodus chapter 33 18 and 19 his character
Moses said and I besieged you show me your glory Moses is crying now for the glory of God 19 and he said I will make all my goodness please say all my goodness what kind of description is that that means the goodness of God as an aspect of his character is even dimensional so when you claim you have seen the goodness of God is only an aspect of his goodness I will make all my goodness to pass before the what did Moses ask for his glory the glory of God is all that makes God God and it says no Moses I descend your heart I know what your heart seeks to understand I will let all my goodness ladies and gentlemen Genesis to Deuteronomy came from this encounter just an aspect of God's goodness being revealed was what Moses saw and from that encounter five books came out
Moses was not there from the beginning he was not there all through the time of you know all through scripture Abraham and the rest he was not there yet look at the accuracy of his writing simply because a dimension of his goodness passed before him as I had chapter 40 we read 28 already let's do to 30 it's God helping someone so when you know God you desire to know God the first thing you should pursue is the knowledge of his character verse 28 now has now not known has now not heard that the everlasting God the Lord the creator of the ends of the earth fainted not neither is he weary there is no such an office understanding the Bible says 29 he give it power whoever that he is give it power to the faint and to them that have no mighty increased strength retouch it with me even the huge shall faint and be weary
are we together and then he says that the young men shall utterly fall the young men shall utterly fall look at what God does he gives power to the faint to them who have no mighty increased strength these are all expressions of his character we are piecing together the various manifestations of his character and with the imagination of an artist we are drawing a personality using his character are we together now as an artist work with me if I tell you draw a man for me give me a pictorial image of a man who is kind loving probably holding his children now I'm helping your mind to be creative are we together now as an artist immediately you can use a man's character as the tools to paint a picture of him that even though you have never seen him I can describe for you a man and using the character of that man you can go into an office and start looking and
you say this most likely is a man based on what you said the man always likes to wear a white suit it is usual for him to wear white should most likely if he sees you he will greet you and say have you eaten I have fed you with the knowledge of that man's character when you step into that office you are looking at everybody who behaves like that and when you suddenly find a man coming with a white suit and says young man have you eaten you can with confidence say good afternoon Mr James and he says afternoon how are you how did you know the knowledge of his character are you learning now the character of God is very profound in Psalms 145 let's go to verse 8 please work with me the Holy Spirit is teaching us something now the Lord is gracious I'm showing you a concise display you see why this Sam is guy was very powerful I don't know what business he did with God but this guy explode God he was him the Sam gives us about the rich capture of the entire
character of God you really want to understand the character of God in fact even more than the Pauline epistles the Sam is the Lord is gracious and full of compassion slow to anger you are describing God now and of great mercy start working with your imagination this is the God you are called to serve verse nine the Lord is good to all wow and his tender mercies are over all his walks there is a dimension of God's compassion that everything he created most experience no one that even Satan has a length of time before his destruction this is consistent with how God meaning it is not usual for God to just judge and destroy people because it's angry God always allows time for repentance if you know this about God certain dimensions of fear dies immediately verse 10 all thy works shall praise the old Lord and the saints shall bless thee please be patient
let's read eleven now media less work together they shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom and talk of your power verse 12 to make known to the sons of men his mighty act and the glorious majesty of his kingdom uh-huh he says thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom and thy dominion endure throughout all generations 14 the Lord uphold that all that fall and raise it up those that be bowed down he's painting the character of God the unknown God is now beginning to find form in your mind the unknown God is up is beginning to be described so that he's no longer you are not building an altered devotion and worship to an unknown God every time you say father your mind your spirit is connecting to somebody if you have used his attributes to paint a picture that your mind can relate with let's finish the description the eyes of all which upon thee and thou give
us them their meat in due season thou openest thy hand and satisfied the desire access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees that I don't really need it inflation is killing me but who cares big retailers and making record profits that's why we support the Durban Marshall credit card bill see things in credit unions help small businesses make payroll this bill would cut the vital resources they need while increasing megastore profits they deserve it don't they tell Congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate megastores paid for by the electronic payments coalition access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees that I don't really need it inflation is killing me but who cares big retailers and making record profits that's why we support the Durban Marshall credit card bill see things in credit unions help small businesses make payroll this bill would cut the vital resources they need while increasing megastore profits they deserve it
don't they tell Congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate megastores paid for by the electronic payments coalition of every living thing 17 the Lord is right just in all his ways and holy in all his works 18 the Lord is nigh on to them that call upon him this alone gives you confidence in prayer that it is inconsistent with his character to be far from you while you pray that every time he hears prayer coming from his sincere believer he's nigh them that call upon him and then to them that call upon him in truth so if you are calling upon him and it looks like he's not hearing verified truth in what you are doing he will fulfill the desire of them that fear him and also will hear their cry and will save them the last verse the Bible says the Lord preserved all them that love him and all the wicked will he destroy that means there is gain in loving God the Bible says preservation is an advantage that is given
those who love God Hallelujah say his character you want to know God accurately the first part of call is to seek to know his character to seek to know his character right for reference we're not reading but some 103 from verse one to 22 but allow me read one to five with you some 103 one to five Hallelujah we sing it as a beautiful hymn unfortunately still to unknown God bless the Lord he says all my soul and all that is within me bless his holy name bless the Lord all my soul and forget not his benefit say benefit that means God never calls the seed of Jacob to seek him in vain every time you keep seeking God know that you are seeking him number one because you love him but that he's benevolent enough to live benefit and there are five
of them number one the Bible says verse three now who forgive that all dial iniquities that is the first benefit number two who he let all die diseases number three who redeemed their life from destruction number four who crowned thee with loving kindness and tenderness is honor number five who satisfied their mouth with good things so that the youth is renewed like the Eagles keep it you can use some 103 one to five to paint a picture of the kind of God you want to believe in so he forgives so he heals so he redeems now that I'm having some growth I can come boldly I know that he heals so when Jesus showed up when he saw sick people to prove that God loves to heal to prove that God loves to forgive he says your sins are taking
away from you and the people did not understand what he was doing it was more than just speaking to the man he was validating the character of God if Jesus never made that statement without God's ability to forgive because it must be captured in the life of Jesus if it is true he forgives he heals he delivers he crowns you with loving kindness and with glory tender mercies and verse five the Bible says he satisfies your mouth with good things I don't know about you but ladies and gentlemen my Christian life changed when I truly understood the character of God I took out time to study are we together I can teach you about a God that I know and your entire theology your praise your worship your attitude will reflect the description of God that you have been taught are we together now there are songs that when I sing I believe what I'm
saying because I have an idea by the spirit quickened by the Holy Spirit I know the kind of God that I'm speaking to Aliluya I've told you this I know that God loves me I don't know what you did to me but I have been so indoctrinated by the love of God for me if I hear a voice here and it says I love you I will reply him and say thank you I know he was speaking to me even if it's not my name that is called are you that confident about the love of God no one that your apostles said the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit let that consciousness remain with you their preacher let me tell you when you understand the character of God there is no limit to what you can do he Jesus representing God said I will never leave you is that true he says that a comfort I will come I know that I am never alone the character of God
has given me confidence when man said there is a casting down I said there is a lifting up God loves me God loves me I am not only a child of God I am evolving in experience to become in a friend of God and most people have no idea that being a friend of God is a noble status not many people in scripture were ever called a friend of God because there is a friend that even sticks closer than a brother do you know what it means to be a friend of God that means God takes away the restraint as far as showing you the mysteries and the secrets that are concerning your life and any territory when you become a friend of God it becomes impossible for God to visit a territory and not consult with you not because you are going to give him permission shall I hide this from my friend Abraham I am a friend of God I am a friend of God he calls me friend
I am a friend of God I am a friend of God I am a friend of God he calls me friend Hallelujah if you have a vision about me today and you see me dying and you say I possibly I saw an obituary I saw you dying it's not whether you are fake or real no matter how real you are I will love you and congratulate you and hug you and say thank you for showing me this but there is something I know about God hezekiah knew this about God and even when a genuine prophet came and said put your house in order I'm sorry to tell you you will not recover he was only a messenger the Bible never calls Isaiah a liar Isaiah was a prophet with integrity but hezekiah said I've listened to you go and he told his face to the wall he says God remember there is something I know about your character let me tell you this fear will give you heart attack and kill you for nothing except
you know the character of God yeah though I walked through the valley of the shadow of death I fear no evil for doubt hold on hold on who is the doubt omnipotent omniscient doubt at with me I have loved you with an everlasting love I expect favor every day of my life that is not the basis of my working with God but I know that there is no genuine love without giving and since his love is eternal his favor and his benefits must be eternal they go hand in glove this I'm sharing with you my orientation about God Hallelujah there are many of us who are still worshiping an unknown God and while God has positioned us as men of God to help give perspective to your knowledge about God nothing will truly give you confidence until you are guided to know the character of God there are men that if they tell
you anything about them the first thing you will be glad to say sorry later but you say I know this person forget it you are just talking nonsense Hallelujah this man collected a bribe of 5,000 this man that I know well we are all human but until proven order wise I know this director you will not write do you know God enough to stand and and tell the dream that you saw that in that dream you saw everybody going down and spirit appears and tells you God said you say hold on with God if it's another God that's fine but to me my altar is not one unknown God my altar is to a loving God a compassionate and merciful God and he can arise as a warrior so when the devil comes to threaten you like like like the patriarchs of all you can arise the fullness of my days I will fulfill I lay me down and I slept for the same God access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees but I don't really need it inflation is killing me but who cares big retailers and making

on the authority the centurion say I know the integrity of the Roman government and on the strength of my consciousness of their power and their integrity I can say to one go and he go with to another come and he come at Jesus I know you you're a man on the authority and Jesus said I've not found this kind of faith this orientation no not in Israel can I tell you I used to live a life full of fear and uncertainties but something about the character of God gave me stability opposed what gives you hope that coinonia will remain serving the purposes of God and rising if I tell you because I'm anointed I gave you a foolish answer that is too small an answer to sponsor longevity in a world that you do not know I don't know the future but there is something I know about God Alpha Omega God when he starts a thing he's able to finish number two there is something I know about God as revealed by their apostles he says listen carefully
he says that I how did he put in an unpassuated help me with that scripture now my mind is trying to get the scripture yes that he's able to keep that which is committed onto him against that do you know yes thank you I know whom I have believed that's what the scripture I was looking for and I am persuaded it says faithfully see that collect you who will also do it so when we start our building project no matter the millions of dollars faithfully see that collect who will do it you will watch with shock and with wonder as the faithful man arises why do I know that every day you will keep coming to be blessed as much as you know this platform remains do you know why because everything God gives and deals ladies and gentlemen are you building your life on sand or are you building it on a rock I know that I am an eternal blessing why do I know that because
God is not a man that he should lie and when he called Abraham Genesis after 12-23 he said I will bless them that bless you and curse him that cursed you and then he says thou shall be a blessing and he says indeed shall all the families of the earth be blessed Galatians 329 and if you be Christ then I ye Abraham's seed and he is according to the promise everything he told Abraham routed to Christ is my reality today so I am a blessing I cannot be a curse any nation and any place is a blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord every time I step into a nation I step in with the spiritual shout of Hosanna is always a triumphant entry because it is blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord your spiritual life will change when you understand this alleluia my life change when I understood the character of God and not a revelation about God
that he's a lifter of man oh yeah if you ever doubt him look at the person speaking to you how dare you say God does not lift God is a lifter of man like he's lifting you now I said like he's lifting you now it doesn't matter who believes it or who does not believe it that is none of your business like he's lifting you now by your spirit I will rise from the ashes of the feet the resurrected king in your name I come alive to declare your victory yeah in your name I come alive to declare your victory
rejoice not to be my enemies there is something about God that I know there is something about the lifter that I know my family may be the lowest but I know something about God I am not serving an unknown God my altar my devotion is not one unknown God he's a rewarder of them that diligently seeking me alleluia they are me when they say as come to you and say you've been serving God for 20 years what is the benefit God rewards he does not pay salary his salary that is monthly God reward may look like he's not coming but in one day after 20 years even if you are Abraham he may take 25 years but ladies and gentlemen when the reward comes he will come with his reward and his benefits and make your life a praise to the nation
alleluia for many years we saw God and gave him everything and there was no calmliness and nothing in our lives that look like God rewards but something about his character for someone who have been praying and fasting and pressing in life and ministry because God said he's giving you the mantle and the mandate of a deliverer do not allow ignorant person confuse you about this God you are serving the reward is on his way to you yours is to be diligent or thus we're bribing in the office and you refuse to bribe now you are feeling stupid because you would have lived in a duplex by now you would have had cash if only you caught corner I'm taking away the haziness from this God he is not an unknown God he can be known using the vista of his character you can know God by knowing his character it is true that God destroys
but who does he destroy let me tell you three categories of people in the Bible that God destroys number one enemies and when God destroys enemies it's not just something that happens enemies there let me define for you who God's enemies are this is not my discussion but I want you to know God's enemy is not just the person who fights you God's enemy is anybody who perpetually interrupts the manifestation of his will God's definition of an enemy is not based on sentiments or biases you can become God's enemy if you consistently become an interruption to his will if he loves you because he's your your his child he may not judge you in terms of true you what will be etched out of the position that creates that interruption by giving your bishop to another this is how God walks I taught you this already are last discussion are we together now
yes so when you say arise and let your enemies be scattered make sure you are not part of them fest that's why the Bible talks about righteousness who shall ascend to the heel of the Lord don't just pray blindly and be victim of your prayer you see that there's a lot of prayer fullness but in ignorance many people pray and miss you think just because you hate a man God hates the man you can be say no God kill that director for me now help me and kill this man and God is saying no even though he's not my son he's a Cyrus that I've ordained and for as long as this system walks it is in honor to them that you arise there are Cyrus's who although they are not in Christ they have through the sincerity of their heart aligns strategically to God's program you will not take them out he will leave them there their relevance is too important this is a mystery in God's end time program you will see many people who are not of the fake playing sensitive roles because the most important thing listen when we appeared on to Joshua
do you not read your Bible he said are you for Ross or against us what was the answer is a neither no this is not how I walk I am for anything that is pro my will so it's a who is on the Lord's side get my message who is on the Lord's side you have to before you invoke God's judgment verify your position many believers have become casualties of careless prophetic speaking Lord destroy anybody that stops your program destroy anybody and God is say I'm warning you don't know what you are doing access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees but I don't really need it inflation is killing me who cares big retailers and making record profits that's why we support the Durban Marshall credit card bill see things in credit unions help small businesses make payroll this bill would cut the vital resources they need while increasing mega store profits
deserve it don't thank tell Congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate megastores paid for by the electronic payments coalition verified before Moses invoke judgment is that who is on the Lord's side let me give you a chance if you are for him and Elijah said if God be God this way if God will always give an opportunity for the will of man to will fully reject him before judgment is met at upon people I wish you gather now we see his character in mini-fair again as as idolatrous and as stiff necked and stubborn as they are he said Jonah he loved Jonah but Jonah's life went down as a genuine prophet you don't have to be fed to destroy you just have to be out of the will of God many good people will be corruptors of God's program simply because they do not understand the power of alignment this is not about being real or fake this about being if you are Jonah rejecting the call of God and running away you are putting mini-fair at ransom
God wanted to make out judgment or otherwise because he sits on a throne that is made of righteousness and justice I hope you know that the very throne God sits on is an altar how it's together and Jonah was delaying the manifestation he needed to give them a chance to choose him or otherwise and look what God the dealing that God had to go through with Jonah Jonah entered the belly of the fish cause people to lose until he repented realigned and the same instruction again and he went to mini-fair Jonah's refusal was because of something about God he knew he knew that God was merciful and he hoped that his delay would make God angry and punish because God does not for bear with iniquity indefinitely so he was running as his strategy that the evil will continue to rise as an indignation and God will be angry and punish them but God said Jonah go and the moment Jonah spoke to them the king said everyone
this and man declared fast and Jonah was angry one radio bible the entire discussion was anger of Jonah he said I know you this is what this is this is why I ran because I knew that if they now repent with all this wickedness they have done you will still forgive them do you know that about God if you know that about God you can still reach your unbelieving grandfather after doing which craft for 35 years you can still tell him before you pass on to glory let me give you a chance to love Jesus and he says you don't know how many people have killed he said does not matter the moment you declare the Lordship of Jesus over your life the bible says there is a translation from the kingdom of darkness alleluia please be seated the character of God is someone learning explore the character of God as a preacher as a businessman as a family man and certain years will die your confidence will be restored like that of those who in bible days the
church of the Lord Jesus Christ is largely powerless in conviction because there is something about the character of God we do not know number two what is the second aspect of God we must explore his ways please write his ways his ways some 25 4 and 5 you want to know God second to the knowledge of his character the second thing you need to understand is how he operates his character talks about who he is his ways talk about how he operates the secret to discernment in addition to the gift of discernment by the spirit is a thorough knowledge of the ways of God when you know how God acts you will know how he does not act show me thy ways O Lord teach me thy paths lead me in thy truth and teach me for thou art the God of my salvation on thee do I wait all day never forget this scripture some 25 4 and 5 is that show me your way
teach me your path ladies and gentlemen when there is inaccuracy in your representation of God and his purposes it may be derived from an inaccurate understanding as to how God works now please look up there are things God will never do even as prophetic actions number one God will never manipulate the will of men the first thing God gave man watch this now when God created man as the zenith of his creation he said let them have dominion from that time make reference to my teaching the series let them have dominion it became scripturally incorrect for God to super impose anything upon man even at the detriment of your eternal destiny he still left you to choose you can reject him the Bible says as many as received him meaning not everybody will receive him can you imagine that that God in his might full of love he's watching someone now go to hell
and he said I give you an option you can choose me that you will leave when he set up the brazen serpent remember in the days of Moses he said the instruction was to look and leave I cannot force it on you when he met the people who needed healing he asked them how do you see a man who has been important a man a woman with the issue of blood and all kinds of people and then ask them what they wanted let me tell you this eternally God has bound himself to respect the will of men if you notice about the way God behaves his modest operandi as a leader you will never force people and you stop upon your will whether it's in ministry or whatever it is if I want to prophesy to you you have a right as an act of your volition to say I appreciate you but I'm not ready to receive and I must respect it if I know the ways of God. Hallelujah leadership is very
poor in Africa and respectfully speaking in many many circles of the church because there is something about the modus operandi of God that we do not know and we have observed even here on this platform that one of the mistakes of the prophetic ministry is that many are assigned from the absence and the bankruptcy of consecration one of the mistakes of the prophetic ministry is that men and women have not subjected themselves to understand the ways of God and the prophetic by design is very complicated it is your knowledge of the ways of God that helps to define the coordinates of your seeing and your hearing so that even as a prophet you know what to reject and what to receive are we together just because you are open to the realm of the spirit does not afford the opportunity to fish to your life and to others everything you see and hear the realm of the spirit is a vast realm it must be seen from the lens of the not just the character of God but the way God operates. Hallelujah so if for instance I see a revelation right now that somebody
here the spirit of death is coming you see that may be an accurate revelation but just announcing to you that you are going to die I have not identified you because the the major purpose of the prophetic for exhortation are we together for comfort that that purpose has been defeated in what I'm saying I leave you with fear I leave you without I have not helped you and because we have been called corporators believers to the ministry of reconciliation the Bible says it is not God's desire that even the wicked should perish but that everyone would come to the saving knowledge of Jesus that must inform my administration of the prophetic so haven't declared to you what I see that the devil wants to do I must now use scripture and show you a recommended path of obedience that leads to your victory. Hallelujah are we together the ways of God the ways of God one of the
rules of thumb that you must never forget about God is that God encourages people he challenges people he can provoke you but you will never use up a manipulator wheel that means as a husband you are manipulating the wheel of your wife and your children you are not behaving like God you are manipulating the wheels of people in society you are not behaving like God people must be given the room under sufficient knowledge to make their choices there are 2.6 billion professing Christians in the world as we know statistically today and you can imagine that as mighty as God is he did not just wave his hand to say everybody by the end of September you must be saved I am God no show us the ancient path will you lead us along eternal highway
we want to follow the ways of Jesus we want to enter your rest listen let me say this respectfully speaking you see and I say this generally to the body of Christ what will they buy us to men and women of God let's trust God for grace to walk in integrity especially as to things like challenging God's people to sow and to give I believe in giving I believe in challenging God's people to give that is the way God designed for resources to come into the house of God but anything that carries the extra luggage of manipulation and lies and falsehood and false prophecy and deceit number one God's people are not stupid the more they stay in the presence of God they receive wisdom they know when truth comes or otherwise one of the things I've learned especially leadership is love people and serve them sincerely and truthfully and when the
moment comes when you need your help and cooperation in any way tell them sincerely and watch what they would do they will surprise you beyond your imagination Hallelujah so for people who may be practitioners of this error God is calling us and when I say things like this you see me say us because that body consciousness is what we seek to contribute to the body of Christ pointing fingers does not provide any profiting the most important thing is a holistic growth of the body through knowledge Hallelujah but if it matters when you know how God operates you will know how he does not operate Hallelujah yes rather than embarrassing somebody the Bible says to rebuke not an elder in public that is how God walks so if a man of influence a man who says anything about him who causes serious problem to his family and maybe to a church or whatever it is a man of influence I will not
come and prophesied boom to the person our rather said you know what seeming the office or simulator on and then you can discuss that just because you saw it it is intelligence of the ways of God that guides how you dispense it so you see that these are mistakes that sometimes we make in the name of being bold we say certain things that end up destroying people because you are talking to a CEO whose employees are there you are talking to a governmental official you are talking to kings and to nobles it is the mistake that many have made and they have lost strategic people in their lives because of the bankruptcy of discernment Hallelujah praise the name of the Lord we must be very wise knowing the ways of God helps you to balance how to function we function in the kingdom based on the knowledge of the ways of God Jesus spent time everything he said about the Beatitudes was helping the believers understand how the kingdom works are we together now yes he said this is what your Lord says but this is what
I now say he gave them room to ask him questions questions Q and A and he explained certain things to them they asked him questions on money on family and marriage on children on these you know demons they answered questions and answer all that he was attempting to do was to help bring them to a point where they know the ways of God are we together on the day of pentacles when they saw the disciples they said these guys are drunk with he said Peter said Abba you are seeing us feel the Holy Spirit about to declare good news and you are saying we are drunk with wine but this is that and then he began his discussion I'm praying for somebody here that in the name of Jesus your life will begin to be so accurate because you will function within the confines of the ways of God if you a businessman you a preacher you are you are a leader of any sort once you have subscribed to the government of heaven you must limit your operations to be
consistent with the ways of God we must edit our principles and practices are we together now to ensure and insist that we are always within the boundary of that which is consistent with how God acts Matthew, Mark, Luke and John is a concise and sufficient compendium of the Network of Jesus it was not just one verse one chapter different scenarios and you would see the way Jesus responded that should be a lesson to us when you are becoming a believer in experience a mature believer would I say you need to understand that you must constrain yourself to live by the modus operandi of the kingdom it is inconsistent with the way God walks that when you see somebody in need especially if it's something that does not cost you anything to help and provide that need and you ignore it the Bible says how does he put it now it says do not withhold that which is good when it is within your power a small child is crying
and 15 hour can solve the child's problem but then you shout and say I'm a Christian I'm a prayer giant are you pass the person he gave the story of the good Samaritan as a lesson there were three people the priest the Levite they were focused on religiosity and spiritual spirituality and they ignore the man dying and then there was a Samaritan you see that now remember that the Samaritan and the Jews they had nothing in common they were always at points of conflict but now he saw this man who was beaten and left for dead the Bible says he embamed the person treated the person took him to a hotel and kept him there and told the man please take care of him if there are any extra bills on my return and Jesus said among all of them paraphrasing who demonstrated God likeness true spirituality is beyond just prayer and fasting it must be demonstrated in our ability to give the character of love which is the foundation of the Christian faith is on giving you are not called to solve everybody's problem so let me balance it so that careless people don't ride on
this message and become a burden to people there are people who would like what I've said now and say on who you see a post was said you must pay my school fees pay my house rent while you are crossing your hand and being irresponsible now as much as God is love God does not end those key responsibility say amen alleluia because you know the Bible say be careful how you hear there are people who hear all kinds of things while they preach shouting and laboring that you receive truth they just hear the pants that relates to their lust and then now go around harassing people and saying you claim to be a Christian you have the money to just buy a house for me alleluia the world is enough for the wise so his character his ways let me give you the last one and then we'll pray to the unknown God you want to demystify the unknown God as far as our work in the earth is
concerned the last dimension of him that you must press is the knowledge of his power the knowledge of his character helping you to understand who he is the knowledge of his ways helping you to know how to function in the kingdom within the limit and the boundary of his will now the knowledge of his power please listen to this one because here is where the administration of your authority and your power the zenith of your dominion is at the mercy of this knowledge the knowledge of his power sun 63 and verse two verse one says oh lord give us verse one let's do one and two oh god doubt at my god early will I see thee so he's seeking God my soul thirsted for thee my flesh longer for thee in a dry and thirsty land where no water is why verse two to see die power
not just to see your face not just to know your ways but now to see your power God's power can be seen and die glory so I have seen thee in the sanctuary you can know his power Matthew 22 and verse 29 yes what Jesus said you do air not knowing the scriptures not the power of God what is the word air you will work in error you will work in confusion you will work in defiance and in deviation to God's preset pattern when you do not know his ways like I taught earlier and you do not know his power that means the power of God and keep a man in the will of God In fact the assignment of the power of God is to bring all things in alignment with the will of God I have taught you here that outside of the will of God the power of God has no assignment
The assignment of the power of God is to bring all things into the will of God the power of God's only stops working when triggered by faith. It only stops working when that issue that matter or that person has come into perfect alignment with the will of God. So when you see a sick person and you release the healing power, the healing and 19, what is the assignment of the healing power? The healing power does not, it doesn't just come there to heal the person. It scans that man's life and sees what aspect of his health is inconsistent with the will of God and like a drug in your body, it begins to correct depending on the dimension and the gravity of the power released. It can bring you into perfect alignment. Do you understand what I'm sharing with you? You want to know God? You have not truly known God as far as it is given to us if you do not know His power. Efficiency 118.
Paul is speaking to the church in Ephesus. This Paul was a powerful man that the eyes of your understanding been enlightened. Watch all the things he wants them to know that he may know. Number one, what is the hope of his calling? Number two, what is the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints? Read 19 if you're a Christian, please. Ready, one, two, read. What is the third thing he wants us to know? What is the exceeding greatness of his power to us world will believe according to the working of his mighty power? Let me stretch it to 21 verse 20. That mighty power that was exalted which he wrote in Christ when he raised him from the dead and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places 21. Far above principality and power and might and dominion and every name that is named not only in this world but even that which is to come. Do you know
the implication of obeying Paul's prayer or praying that Paul's prayer becomes your prayer? Let me tell you the truth. There is no weakness for the believer who knows the power of God. And this is beyond the realm of miracles and signs and wonders. There are infinite possibilities that can flow through the life of a believer. Paul is saying, I see your weakness in times of your weakness. You are not able to be effective witnesses. As chapter 4 and verse 33, the Bible says and with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus and great grace was upon them all. When it has to do with being a witness, it is good to know God's character. It is good to know God's ways but in the face of courses and yokes and assenance of darkness, the gates of hell that wants to prevail over God's people. Ladies and gentlemen, you need to know
His power. You need to know His power. It is the revelation of God's power that brings you into questionable dominion. Verse 17, 44 to 47, the story that I started earlier on and the Philistines said to David, come to me, go lie at now and I will give thy flesh to the files of the air and to the beasts of the field. Look at the reply of a young boy who had encountered the power of God. Then David said to the Philistine, and ladies and gentlemen, today that Philistine can be anything that speaks to you. It can be sickness, it can be life, it can be limitations. David replied the Philistine, thou commest to me with a sword and with a spare and with a shield,
but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts. We can spend all night teaching what this name is. The Lord of hosts, the literal Hebrew translation is the captain of the angel army. Some versions who say the captain of the angel army, if you read versions like maybe the message or new living translation, they will give you greater perspective as to this. He says, beautiful, I come to you message now in the name of God of the angel armies. Do you know what that means? It is an office that every president has. In Nigeria, we call it the grand commander. You see that now? That status that is given a civilian, even if he becomes president. You are in charge of the entire enforces, and it is only at your final command that war is
executed or prohibited. So he says, I come to you in the name. There is something I know about God and his power that when he gives a command, you are dead. It is in that name I come. Let's finish the scripture. Back to KJV 45. First Samuel 17, 45. Now you understand? I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied. Watch this. Reading 46 now. This day, this gentleman is not just prophesying. He is speaking from the abundance of his revelation about the God who gave him the gear, the God who gave him the lion that he taught, the lion and the bear. If you meet the beard, the forest, run as you pray. Run as you pray. Don't pray. Don't stand there. Run as you pray because you're most likely may not survive. Those animals are vicious. And what is a lion? Do you climb a tree to be safe? Do you jump into the river to be safe?
Number one, what will even take you there? That's what we must prove. What took you there? Most likely disobedience would have taken you there. Hallelujah. How are we together? This day, the Lord will deliver thee. Who else in the Bible made this kind of bold statement? Bible knowledge, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. Those three young boys, when they stood before Nebuchadnezzar, staring at that idol, that 90-feet stature made of gold, they said, oh, King, we've been taught to honor, but in this matter, we will not respect you on that. Our God is able to deliver us and He will, but that even if it does not deliver us, for sure, bowing down to you. Yesterday, I was tired and I was just resting in the living room, just for a while, and then I saw these children's cartoon, and that was Superbook, and it was that story. I decided to watch it preparing for this summoner. Thank you, Jesus. And you see, the children's
cartoon, I mean, you needed to see what the power of God did in that cartoon. Robbish that furnace for nothing. And then the fourth man who was in that fire said, oh, that fourth man, please stand with me, oh, tomorrow as I teach. Hallelujah. Amen. Let's finish that scripture. We're reading to 47. I hope you're learning. It says, I will give this professing to Goliath now. I will smite the and take your head from you, and I will give the Caucasus of the host of the Philistines this day to the files of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel, not just that there is a mighty young boy who is standing to face a giant. It says an all disassembly shall know that the Lord save it not with sword and spare, but the battle is the Lord's, and he will give you into our hands. There are many mountains and many battles he will confront in your life as a believer.
Many of you are standing before them now. Financial battles, marital battles, held battles, are we together, and all kinds of things. In these days, there are mysterious, deadly sicknesses. Someone just wakes up in the morning and you feel pain here. You just go to the hospital thinking they will tell you you didn't rest well and they say, we don't like what we are seeing in this machine. When did you start having this pain? It's just last week. This is already stage two in the name of Jesus. The revelation of God's power will terminate everything. My father has not planted in your body. Hallelujah to know the power of God, to know the power of God. You cannot bear witness to the truth. You cannot prove a God that you have not seen and known his power. When he told Moses, I am that I am, he did not stop there. He told him, he said, all right, here's what will happen. Moses, what are you holding in your hand? He said, he wrote, he said, cast it down. When Moses threw it down, it became a serpent. And Moses moved away from it. He said,
don't be afraid. Pick it from the tail. And Moses picked it and it became a road. And he said, hold this road. Where will he work? Science and wonders. Put your hand in your bosom. Brot it out and it was lepros. Put it back. Brot it out and it was normal. That means anything you see Pharaoh doing, don't be afraid. I have used your own body to act out my power to you. Moses was on his way. He went to knock. God said, the Lord God of the Hebrews, let my people go. And Pharaoh said, look at this stupid guy. You ran away for 40 years to the wilderness. And now you are back looking like somebody who was rejected with some careless message that the God of the Hebrews, you think were stupid people in Egypt? Moses said, I don't have time to waste discussing with you. He threw his rod on the ground. Pharaoh looked at him and said, shame on you. If this is what you brought to make me bring God's people out. You know how if you don't know God well,
when the devil does what you think God can do, you will now run away. Because that thing was a replica of what God could do. So you tell somebody, you only got prosperous. And it's okay. I'm going to the harbor is in open. Let's check ourselves by December. By December, you come, you are prosperous and the person is prosperous too. And it says, so what is the difference? You need to know God enough. There are nine plates, ten plates just because you saw one. Does that mean that is all? There is a plague that Pharaoh and his wizards cannot reproduce. After nine plates and stubborn Pharaoh said, it's not enough. God said, I know what to do. They know the implication of fast bonds. Don't worry. Allow them. And that night the angel of death swept over Egypt. They woke up with a lamentation. The fast bonds were all dead. When you study now, you study these things with caution. Don't just want to read something that will make you start seeing spirits. I will together now. When you are exploring
extra biblical materials, you do it with maturity and with wisdom. I will together now. A believer who just got born again, there are books you should not expose yourself into. You will destroy yourself and you will do it through your faith. But when you study, even if it's Egyptian psychology, you know that they dedicated their fast bonds to God. There was a mystery of the strength of Egypt that was shrouded in their fast bonds. You could kill all your children. Go ahead, but not their fast bonds. So when God was visiting the fast bonds, there was something that happened there. And at the end of it, Pharaoh said, go, give them gold. Give them anything. Let them go. Let them go. Please leave this place. And as soon as they left, he came to pursue them again. And this time around, God made it. It did something that Pharaoh wanted. The Red Sea opened and when they stepped into it, the Red Sea buried them. Completely.
If the Red Sea can bear off, can bury Pharaoh, there is nothing it cannot bury. Every spirit and every manifestation of darkness that keeps saying, I will keep you bound. Your children will join you here. Your grandchildren will join you here in the name of Jesus. The same way that sea opened heath and titha and buried Pharaoh and his armies. Everything that is not by my God from my God. And with the permission of my God, I declare, let it be buried forever. Now you understand, David Damsong, only a shoe will rain forever to his kingdom. There will be no end. There is a third part I have not learned. That's the part I wanted to think. I always think that's the one and two. Sing it for us. Listen, there are curses, but no evil can stand
your power. Only a shoe will rain forever to his kingdom. There will be no end. Listen to me. Power is the ability to cost change. Many times the ability to force change. Some 66th anniversary say unto God how terrible a doubt in thy walks through the greatness of thy power shall thy enemies submit themselves to you. Ladies and gentlemen, the end time church is a church of power. Power not just to become but power against. Power to become is the increasing that makes you become like Christ in terms of transformation. Power against reveals the warrior dimension of the believer. The Bible says to put on the whole armor of God. You know
how you put the whole armor of God in your mind and by your speaking. That is how you put the whole armor of God. The whole armor of God is a consciousness and then the reality of it is activated as you speak with understanding. So Paul paints a picture of a warrior, the blessed plate of righteousness, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation. He gives you the description of a warrior because he reminds you that the earth is not just a playground. The truth is that the Bible says that the flesh lost it after the spirit, the spirit lost it after the flesh and that consistently, day two, the mystery of Kenan evil. There is a contention of the old and the new man, Satan, the gates of hell, fighting the church and the purposes of God. Believe us, you can be wise in terms of the knowledge of principles, but can I tell you the truth? The days that are before us. Please listen to me. We are
about to pray. The days that are before us are times that will necessitate power, power, genuine spiritual power. You want to see the sick healed? It takes more than sympathy. You need power. How God announced Jesus of Nazareth, Acts 1038 with the Holy Ghost and with power. My Bible says he went about doing good and healing all day that were oppressed of the devil for God was with him. Acts chapter 8 from verse 5, Philip went down to Samaria and preached Christ unto them. The next verse says the people gave him with one accord to those things which Philip spoke. Why? Because they heard and they saw the miracles that he did. A generation of power will also be the generation of glory to see your power and your glory. You cannot see glory without power. Hallelujah. The spirit
of glory was also the spirit of power. Ladies and gentlemen, please hear me. I have told you again and again and I will repeat it. Ladies and gentlemen, please hear me. Do not begin your faith adventure in this kingdom, especially within this complicated time as a man of God, a businessman, a leader without sorting the revelation of genuine power. Accessing power is progressive but there is a threshold measure of spiritual power you need to begin your journey because you are trading very, very complicated and delicate spiritual terrains. Satan will kill anything he can kill, destroy anything he can destroy. And power is what may afford you the longevity of state and impact. Hallelujah. There are forces who were having a wonderful time with our School of Ministry students. By the way, I hope you are warming up for their graduation coming soon.
We're going to announce it will be a beautiful time. These people have been. I think we should appreciate them. They have been so committed and very, very diligent. Hallelujah. I have not only read that there are spirits. I have seen spirits. I have encountered. I have shared with you some of these encounters in the bit of time that God has given me serving His purposes in ministry. I have ministered to people and I have seen the extent of darkness and evil and wickedness. I have seen a bit of how Satan can go, how far he can go as far as destroying glorious destinies are concerned. And there are times that I have seen graciously and with all humility, the power of God. You don't know why I get excited about the miracle services. All services are, you know, services that bring blessings but because we have dedicated the miracle service to minister to God's people that in a moment and each long captivity leaves just like that power. Hallelujah.
Many of you, this is why you came to church tonight. I do not doubt your encounter with the character of God. There are things about God that you know, but there are things about God, you do not know. Some of you are yet to encounter His power. Please try to listen to my message, the value of encounters. You need an encounter with the power of God if you want to sow John in this wicked world. It takes power to clear every mountain that stands before you and to keep making strategic kingdom progress. There are forces that will not rest till you are brought down and may God help you that you rise to the highest position. We're discussing this with our precious students yesterday. I think he was and we're talking about the reality of the evil of the times. This is not to scare you but the truth is the truth. Hallelujah. Praise the name of the Lord. I think he was someone I prayed for. I don't know if I've shared the story here
and this person just hit his stone, just something that looks like a stone and then the leg begins to swell and then you treat it in the hospital and it does not go down. Is that a stone? You went to school. Is that a stone? Arrows that fly by day. Noise some pestilences. Destructions that waste a noon day and in the name of Jesus I'm praying for someone here. If for any reason you have been a victim of any of these assenance of darkness, my Bible says now thanks be to God which causes us always to triumph. I declare in the name of who died and is today exalted and exalted at the throne of the Father. Be delivered this moment now. Hallelujah. There are regions where people do not rise. There are territories where people do not rise. There are regions help that gentleman. There are regions where ministries do not rise. Help that lady please.
What were to pray? Are we together now? Yes. I have seen regions. There are territories that have territorial spirits that define that civilization or otherwise. You do not understand power. You taught those regions. You will look like the city. They will bring you down to reflect the city. There are families where men are the women and women are the men and those who dare to rise beyond the certain threshold are caught shot in shame. On timely death for reasons you cannot explain. This is not to scare you. So you can find people who stay abroad for 20 years, 30 years and they return back with nothing. Forces are real. Jesus did not hide the fact that those forces were on earth and they are everywhere. The whole world liars in wickedness. This is where the ministry of power comes. No matter the quality of ingredients you have to cook,
I taught you. If you don't set it on fire, there will not be a meal there. Mix the tomato, mix the rice. All of them will be at the mercy of fire. His fire does the remaining business. There is what your life cannot do that only fire will do. There is what your your chefry prowess cannot do only fire. Are we together now? Your life cannot turn solid to liquid. No, but put it on the fire and watch what happens. It is only fire that can expose the viper that is hidden in the log of wood. When fire comes every viper hiding it must come out and be revealed to be dealt with. For as long as there is no fire there, the serpent will be masquerading there, moving it in your body from hair to toe and you are wondering what is moving in my body like this and the only thing they are telling you is that something is growing within
your system. Hallelujah. The fire of the Holy Ghost and encounter with the power of God. Let me recap one last time and then we pray that if you want to transit your knowledge from the unknown God like the man in Athens to a God that you know that you serve that you can boldly tell the world. Come and join me. Serve this God. Come and join me. Serve this God. Come and join me. Give to this God. Come and join me. Love this God. Come and join me. Worship this God. Come and join me. Exalt this God. Come and join me. Speak the purposes of this God. If you do not want to mislead a generation through ignorance then you must transit your knowledge and stop building an altar committing your devotion to a non-none God. He can be known. His character can make him known. His ways is one way he can be known and finally his power. Can I tell you
you don't see wind but you can see the effect of wind. It will pick up his zinc. You watch tornadoes and they will sweep buildings that were put with smelt and sweep them like children playing football. Hallelujah. This is the God we serve. You want a generation to turn away from idol and to turn away from other gods and look to the God of the Bible. It takes more than an evangelistic discussion. You will need to tell a generation behold the power of this God who sent us. That power is translated in healings, miracles, restorations that whole families come under that influence of his power and in one day, one moment, captivity is taken away from people. Healing is happening. You speak to someone. Can I tell you on account of that manifestation
of power in one day by the time God helps you as a preacher, as a businessman, as a politician, as a believer, as a witness and you demonstrate certain levels of his power. I know people today with all due respect and humility. If not because they saw a display of God's power to the level that don't founded their minds, they would never come to church. They would never come to God. Power is not just in terms of transformation, creating change. That someone who will tell you I had HIV. This is the medical report. I didn't believe in God because I was angry. Now here is my result. I had cancer stage 4. Now look at it. Medicality verified. How do you deny that? Someone you know who was on a wheelchair is today pushing his wheelchair somewhere and running around. Help the other and you. Someone grounded and left for dead, raised up by the power of the
Holy Spirit. There is a gentleman we need a generation to see a display of his power again. Power reminds all men that there is a God that sits in heaven. When men forget God, he uses his power to remind them of his person. There is a generation that may not seem to really respect character as important as that is. God has never used character to call the attention of a rebellious generation. He uses his power. When he gets the attention, he now begins to teach them his ways and then finally brings them into conformity with his character. Are we together now? When a rebellious generation or a generation that is be deviled in any way, when God wants to call the attention, Elijah did not stand there singing praises and dancing. He was the power of God, same with Gideon, same with the three Hebrew boys. The pattern has always been first a display of his power.
I'm the only one who is saved in the family of 10 people. Let them see a demonstration of God's power beyond falling down and standing up, beyond just speaking gibberish as a preacher, power, supernatural solutions by the spirit of God that a man who you knew at January could not pay his house rent was not serious, but he started coming to church by June. God has lifted him changed his story, wiped his tears, healed the sick. Papa, ladies and gentlemen, man have not grown to a level of civilization where the power of God becomes of non-effect. The power of God is at the fabric of human living and it will be forever. You may not need a typewriter now again. You may not need certain things. You may not need certain elementary basic kinds of phones because technology has gone. But one dimension that will never be outdated is the power of God. If you have the power of God, you are current for all seasons.
Hallelujah. There are things that if you studied before with respect to the world now, you may need to reinvent yourself, but not power. It's a language that is understood in all realms. As for me, I told you last week, I have made a commitment under God. I am not satisfied with the level of power. I thank God for the wonderful things he has done, but with respect to the heights and the dimensions we seek to step into to represent the purposes of Jesus. There is the dimension of God's power that can save a nation in one day. We need to tap into that frequency. You are a man of God. You must thank God for what he has done, but not come around it. Oh, I'm an evangelist. I go to preach. There are five people getting saved. Thank God for it, but you cannot stay like that. Five people in a territory full of idolatry. Idolatry are not
kinds of things. No. Read your Bible and see how nations were saved in one day. By the time five dead people rise up in one week, verify through your hands on that God with the glory going to God, it becomes too notable to be ignored. I've seen these things in my vision, so there are days before us, but it takes stamina and hunger and press. I pray to God many times, I say, Lord, take away anything that will bring complacency in my life. The cancer of arrival, mentality, drive it out of my life. Let me seek you like I've never found you. Let me seek you like I do not know so much because it is true. I do not know much. There are still heights. This was the hunger of Paul that I may know him, that I may know him, that I may know him. A man who was killed, he got up,
don't set himself and came back to life until his assignment was over. Have you tapped into that realm? Only a shoe will rain forever. To your kingdom, there'll be no end. There are names, there are titles, there are legends and tales of strength, but only a shoe will rain forever. To your kingdom, there'll be no end. Only a shoe will rain forever. To your kingdom, there'll be no end. Only a shoe will rain forever. To your kingdom, there'll be no end.
In one of my visions, who are wrapping up many years ago, I was in a building. No, I came out of a building and it was like coffee was declared in a territory and I was standing there and every normal healthy human being had gone inside. The only people who were outside are people who were deformed, named, distressed. They were sitting in muds and lined up. I found myself in the midst of people with all kinds of pain and sorrow, not just medical situations, not just biological deformities, but these were people dejected like the men of David. And when I looked at them, I said, what kind of thing? I mean, it was an ugly description. It's not something anybody who loves God should see and be happy. No matter, even if your heart is the heart of stone, it will be crushed. It becomes the heart of flesh. And I saw them. They were helpless. And I remember
hearing a voice, an audible voice in that vision and he spoke to me and he said, heal them all. This is not just physically healing, the healing and not in a loan. That was one of the things that made me to go and start looking for the materials of Charles and Francis Hunter, an Ampie sample Macphessine. And I said, no, there's something our generation has not touched. Let's go back. The secret of the future is in the past. We need to go back. And I began to study, I still have their materials today. It's still a project I'm on. I don't know what those people did with God that brought them certain levels of grace. Hallelujah. Certain levels of grace. This man carried grace. They carried grace. That may God revive us. So may God revive us in the name of Jesus. May God revive us. May God revive us and make us empower to be able to heal our land. Hallelujah. Some of the miracles we celebrate today, sincerely. There were the people who were the
workers and the ushers in those ministries that walked in it. Now we thank God for what He has helped us do. The things we celebrate today would not even be clapped at during their days. There were men who were like gods. Smith Wiggles what raises somebody who was dead and kept the person and tells him to jack back to life. He falls down like a pack of cards, lifts him again. He falls down and by the third time the man sniffs and then he comes back to life. That was a casual miracle. A group of people look at not catering cool man now. What's her name? The other woman. Maria Woodward Eater and they insulted her and she just looked at them and said the Lord and the tongue of one of them protruded like a cancer and remained there till a committee came together and brought her to come and apologize and she just slapped the tongue and it went down documented in history and she came upon all. You see that now the mockery that has come to the
house of God is because one person has not been used as a warning that there is sanctity and honor that surrounds priesthood and that is not just by debate and shouting and all of that. You see there is a gentleman I'm challenging you tonight there is power that can come upon you as a businessman you will do business like a spirit not like an individual again that there are heights you will scale you will do certain things that will surprise men and people who have to ask them how are you doing this and you will tell them that beyond my intellectual prowess which is important there are certain graces that have been stored to be poured like files from heaven upon a generation my charge for you tonight is that you disease from knowing and from from advocating an unknown God a God that is filled with gaps in your conviction gaps in your confidence that your life is plagued with all kinds of fear you may bridge with confidence but
live in fear you may talk with confidence but live in fear covid was a strong lesson to us that something was wrong with our convictions that something about our confidence needed an upgrade. Hopefully Yeshua will reign forever to His kingdom there will be no end three more times Hopefully Yeshua will reign forever to His kingdom there will be no end Hopefully Yeshua will reign forever to His kingdom there will be no end Hopefully Yeshua will reign forever to His kingdom there will be no end
This is now the reason why I ask you to start when I was praying the Lord told me that there are a few people that is going to be raising a science listen they are going to be demonstrators of His power science a few people and I I first prayed for myself I said Lord I must become one of such people now I want to pray for you Lord I pray that you find men and women in the midst of your people men who will be science signposts showing men the possibilities that are captured in this divine life therefore I stretch my hands in the name of Jesus Christ by the election of grace I declare that the grace that makes you a sign and a wonder in ministry in your profession in business in family may that grace rest upon you now may that grace rest upon you
now rest upon you now your life sees is to be ordinary from tonight a sign and a wonder your life becomes a bible for many to read a compendium of the manifold wonders of God in the name of Jesus Christ only Yeshua will reign forever to His kingdom there will be no end for some of you the sign that will rest on you is the favor of God for some of you the sign that will walk will rest on you is the healing and 19 for some of you the sign that will rest on you is strange influence inexplainable influence for some of you the sign that will rest on you is speed that cannot be described for some of you the sign that will rest on you is a demonstration of
the gift of the spirit at the level that men have not seen for some of you the sign that God will give you is empowerment in your mind extra ordinary intelligence but by all means may that sign be represented in your life I and the children at the Lord has given me the Bible says we are for signs for signs for signs there are worshipers that will become signs you will not just sing songs there will be mysteries from your voice to the nation there are preachers that will not just be preachers as it were but signs and wonders your life becomes a case study that men use your life to learn God financial signs arise favor signs arise in the name of Jesus Christ
listen when you want to go to a restaurant that you have never been before when you are close to the vicinity and you are in doubt as to whether to turn left or right you may not have seen the actual building but you look for the signpost the signpost number one tells you you are near and then it directs you more accurately into it I'm about to pray that prayer that someone who is confused about God confused about how favor works confused about how consecration works confused about how the spirit of revelation functions in a man confused as to how men can be custodians of the mysteries of God confused as to how God can trust men with nations in the name of Jesus tonight may your life be an explanation to divine mysteries may your life be an explanation to divine mysteries
in the name of Jesus the last prayer I speak over you three his character knowing God his ways knowing God and then his power for many of us who have desire to know God you have first that you have prayed now God has created a bearing for you this tree is not all to know about God but as far as this dimension of our existence is concerned God will only be captured and revealed to men on the district channels his character his ways and his power any route to knowing God beyond this as much as scripture reveals will only tilt you to error and divination that any man who seeks to know God must explore God through the platform of his character the platform of his ways and the platform of his power I decree and declare every dimension of that revelation
that is currently deficient in your life I call upon my God who is also your God that by his spirit who has been mandated to be the repealer of all things even the deep things of God may the spirit of revelation rest upon you may the spirit of revelation rest upon you in the name of Jesus Christ you can no God accurately when you know his character you can no God accurately when you understand his ways you can no God accurately when you know his power the proof that you have encountered his character is that there is a conformity in your life to become like Jesus Christ in experience an experiential conformity is proof that you have encountered his character and then the absence of fear fear is replaced with reference in your life that you revive him
but not fear after the flesh number two when you understand the ways of God the proof is excellence as far as living in the cosmos the superiority of the way of God when you know the way of God are we together now you will try young as far as destiny actualization and fulfilling the purposes of God is concerned but then your dominion in experience is established when you know his power now you access in truth the grace to demonstrate and to validate as a witness that he's king that he's Lord and this one is very important especially because of the context of the world and the civilization that we live in now this world needs to see the power of God beyond falling down beyond rising up as wonderful as that is supernatural solutions super imposing systems and
structures that your words no longer become barren or important your life becomes an explanation to define mysteries that as she takes you from nation to nation you literally entire nation and keep it at a standstill not just in terms of the canality by the flesh but that your life you become such a lamb stand a witness indeed there are many many Christians in Abuja many children of God sincerely so but there are few people who have truly known God in his character who have understood his ways there are many things we complain about that should never be prayer points the answer to them are shrouded in knowing the ways of God and yet in the midst of all our services and all that we do respectfully it looks and seems to me like evil continues to multiply within
our horizon it seems they have no honor in regard for our consecration it seems they have no honor in regard for our loyalty our profession of faith something is wrong there needs to be a restoration of authentic power the church or the believers the men in Athens they were devoured superstitious religious zealous sincere dedicated but all that was to an unknown God now he calls us to take away that inscription and to rewrite for ourselves and for a generation to see that God can be known and he can be known accurately if Paul did it we can do it we can disciple a mental a generation metaphorically to know God by revealing his character showing them his ways and ultimately demonstrating his power may that be our reality beginning from now in the name of
