Transcript: Three Flows of Spiritual Power
Prepared from the audio, so small errors are possible.
God's word is alive and powerful. It is sharper than any double edged sword. His word can cut through our spirits and souls and our joints and marrow until it discovers the desires and thoughts of our hearts. Join Apostle Emmanuel as he takes us on a journey into the word of God. It is time to encounter God, be transformed by his word, and empowered by his spirit. Three flows of spiritual power. The world that we live in is not neutral. What we live in is a battlefield of kingdoms. So you cannot be in this world and be neutral. I've said it again and again that what we are dealing with is not just systems and structures.
It is a clash of civilizations. A confrontation between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of darkness. And Ephesians chapter six verse 12. Says for we wrestle not against flesh and blood. But against principalities and powers. Against rulers of darkness. Of this age. Against flesh and blood. But against principalities, against powers, against rulers of darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Both the kingdom of heaven and the kingdom of darkness have agendas.
Both of them have structures, and both of them are seeking to implement their will upon the earth. But the method of implementation is the same in both. God uses man. Satan also uses man. That's why power in this kingdom is nonnegotiable. Let me tell you something very clearly. In the realm of the spirit, grammar does not move anything. Power is the most eloquent language in this realm. Power is the most eloquent language. Spirits do not speak English, do not speak French, not speak.
But every demon understands power. Every spirit understands power. The bible says there is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard. Note, it does not say where their language is not heard. Where their voice. In other words, it doesn't matter what language that voice is speaking. As long as that voice carries power, power is a universal language. Every spirit speaks it. Every spirit. I pity a believer that lives in this realm and ignores power.
You can do nothing reputable in this realm outside of power. The bible says in Ephesians that we read, and the bible introduces horse to the reality of this realm called the realm of the spirit. The bible says that there, we wrestle not against flesh and blood, that is human beings, That our wrestle, our warfare is not against human beings. Our warfare, the bible says, is against principalities. Our warfare, the bible says, is against powers. Our warfare, the bible says, is against rulers of darkness. Spiritual hosts of wickedness. These are actual entities that exist. This is not a figure of speech. This is as real as it gets.
In other words, in this realm, you must understand that there are powers, there are principalities, there are rulers of darkness, And they have agendas. In first Corinthians chapter four and verse 20, the bible says the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. It means you don't explain the kingdom of God. You show it. The kingdom of God cannot be explained. It can only be experienced. Just like in biology, there are certain things that cannot be properly understood without a diagram. In the kingdom, our diagram is the power of God. That is how we illustrate realities. The same way they will tell you explain with the head of a diagram.
In this kingdom, we explain with the head of power. The only way that men can understand realities in the kingdom, the only way is through power. In Luke chapter 11 verse 20, Jesus said, but if I, with the finger of God, cast out devils, no doubt, the kingdom of God is come upon you. If I, with the finger of God, cast out devils, It means every demon that is cast out is a revelation of whose kingdom is in charge. Jesus says, how you know that the kingdom of God has come upon you is not because I came to teach it or I came to shout. The Bible says, if high with the finger of God, look at the demon and say go. And the demon hears my voice, then know that in that day, I have shown you kingdom. I have shown you kingdom as clear as it can be. Psalm 66 verse three, the bible says say unto God, how awesome are your works? Through the greatness of thy power shall your enemies submit themselves unto you.
Some people think that because they are kind and peaceful, they don't have enemies. You give rice and chicken to your neighbor at Christmas. You sweep the office corridors for others, and you feel as though because you are doing these things means everybody is happy with you. And you are unaware that the same people you are sweeping the corridors for are the ones pronouncing the temptation against your business. Why? Because powerlessness is an invitation for oppression. In this kingdom, if you do not have power, you have invited yourself to be oppressed. Yes. Powerlessness in any regard is an invitation for oppression. Does the bible not say the rich ruleth over the poor?
What the poor is lacking is financial power. And as long as power is lacking, you have invited yourself to be oppressed. Power is a language that every believer must speak. Every believer. There are believers who are afraid to confront darkness. Believers who are afraid to confront demons. Afraid to confront spiritual wickedness in high places. You will hear people say, don't go back to the village. Don't go to the village. Don't allow people to touch you.
Don't allow somebody to shake you. Don't understand that happen. Why? Because they believe power is real, but they are lacking it. So they tell you the ones who have it, avoid them. Because if they touch you without their hand, your life can't be configured because somebody shook you. Unbelievers are the one that speak like Plato. There are riots by demons. Terrorized by darkness. You see, as a man of God, you can't imagine how many messages I get again and again.
Demons in rampage. The realm of the spirit oppressing people. The kingdom of darkness destroying lives, wrecking lives. Again and again, people would tell me, sir, I was sleeping, and I did not know what happened. Some some... I I I could not wake up from my sleep. Something was holding my neck, holding my neck, holding my neck, holding my neck. And I could not breathe. I was blasting for air. I was doing all of that.
Medical sciences would have names for it. But we know what it is. It's demons. Strangling spirit. The name is called demons. T e m o n s, demons. The bible says, how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the holy ghost and with power. Jesus of Nazareth. I want you to look at who was anointed. That Jesus of Nazareth.
Oh god. The next few meetings, I want to introduce you to the school of power. I'm gonna teach you... Listen. I'm gonna teach you... I'm not here to excite you. It's not an ex... It's not a... It's it's not an exciting series. No.
No. It is because you have come to that point in the syllabus where you must be introduced to what makes nations bow, what makes systems bow, what makes what makes territories submit themselves to you? What makes demons and principality listen to you? What makes what makes what makes even those who are... The bible says that he was anointed with power. He went about doing good, healing all who were oppressed by the devil. Can we read that line together, everybody? One, go. One, two, go. Pause.
Healing how many? One. So this has to do with sickness. Is that much so? Yes, sir. And what did they call the cause of their sickness? Jesus... The Bible says, every sickness Jesus encountered was oppression by the devil. That's what the Bible says. I hope you know that what Simon's mother had is what you'd call malaria.
See what they called it? Oppression by the devil. In case there is somebody here oppressed by the devil, with any form of infirmity or sickness in your body, you will better listen to this very carefully. The aim of this teaching is not to bring you to a point where you know that the man of God is anointed. No. It is to introduce you to the school of power where you leave this life, their demons, their principalities. After this, you will stop hiding. You you will go into places and shake them intentionally. You are the one that will go and look for trouble just to see what the devil will do. Just to see what the devil will do.
We have power. These are not empty confessions. These are not empty confessions. Demonstratable authority. That is what we have. When I was in 200, A lady was with me who I was mentoring, and this lady had a boyfriend who was a courtist. I wrecked her life. When she came to me, she was in a meeting just like this, and the power of God came upon her. She was healed of asthma instantly. At the point where she met me, she had had four abortions, and she was 18 years old or so.
She was gone. All of a sudden, God heals her of asthma. She goes to go and test it to ensure she's healed. When she was shot, she said, what is this? She came to come and meet me and tell me, listen, sir. My father is a pastor. I was raped at the age of eight or so by the youth pastor. That's my father's church. I cannot imagine that this... That sent me that sent me to a life of uselessness, a life of miserability.
And I've brought several infirmity upon myself because of that lifestyle, and he was mentioning all kind of things. And right there, she was ill of all of them. And I told her as I held her hands, I said, you have someone that you're seeing? She said, yes, sir. And I saw this young man in a dark regalia. And I said, do you know that this guy is a courtist? He said, know. You are aware? He said, I know. You know?
He said, I know. There was a ring on her finger. I saw in the name of the spirit play ring. And I said, was it one that gave me that ring? She said, yes. Remove it. We tried to remove it from her hand, the ring could not come off. Not because it was tight. It's not because her hand was big. Normal thing That will not come off.
The moment we were able to get the ring off by the power of god, she went out under the power. Instantly, the black stuff in her eyes went away. What was left was the white eyeballs. That was what was left. The voice changed into the voice of a man saying, you, what do you think you can do? Talking to me. What do you think you will do? Because we removed the ring. That one will think that what she's carrying is a token of love. And she would not know that that thing was given to her just to ensure that her life was tied in a corner.
Never to move forward. Power. I like power. I like power. We have used power to disgrace demons. And there was nothing they could do. I'm still standing here. We have gone into territories with no respect for the principalities in that territory. Yes, sir. No respect whatsoever.
I have no order for demons. I'm not one of those that respect demons. Say be careful. Be careful. Don't don't don't talk like that. Don't look for anybody's trouble. I look for their trouble. I want to see exactly what they will do. I was talking to someone. The person was telling me an experience they had.
And when the person was talking, I said, I wish I was the one that had this experience. He said, The demon was casted off her. She became normal. And I told her, go and end the relationship. She ended it. And then the boy sent me... I don't even know how he got my number. I was in 200 level. Useless boy just sent me a message. He said, so you are the pastor Abi.
Who is telling all your members to go and be breaking up with their boyfriends? Do you want to marry them? Do you know who I am? I will show you. I just saw it and laughed and dropped the phone. I didn't even take it seriously. Just saw it and laughed and dropped the phone. Say it will show me. Come and show. Why are you sending text message?
Just come and show. It was on the Wednesday. I was in my hostel, and three guys walked in. How they knew my room? I had no idea. My roommates were there. One of them recognized the first guy that had came in. I was listening to him. My face, my ears were blocked. I'm praying, and I saw them walking.
Rough looking guys. I just walked in. One of them had no smoking, walked in, smelling like what I don't understand. I mean, if you're gonna... Anyway, sir. Glory to god. And they were just smelling, and they walked in. He said, in Yoruba, where is that pastor? He... Is he the one?
He said, my roommate said, ah, ah, oh, what happened? What happened? Apparently, he knows them. And he knows how fearsome they can be because, apparently, they are the thugs. They are one of the highest ranking thugs in Koli, Badon, dear. And, apparently, the boyfriend had sent them to come and oppress me. Like, he said, will show me. Power is a universal language. Power. It is a universal language.
I'll always tell you that which our eyes have seen. That which our ears have heard, our hands have handed. The guy started apologizing on my behalf. They were shouting, you you are the one that is telling people to do something. People were gathering from other rooms to come and see what is happening there, and then some people would know them and run away. Run away. Me and I don't know. I was... My earpiece knocked him off. He was still there.
I was still praying. I stood up on my bed as they were shouting, walked amongst them, went out, went to ease myself. They just looked at me, came back to the room, sat down, USA. The first one apologized and left. I said nothing. The second one saw the first one leave, tap the other one, say, let's go. Because they could not understand how this one was not afraid of them. So the revelation they caught was, if he's not afraid, be careful because you have no idea what he has. By themselves, themselves, they apologized and left. I never heard that statement.
All I said was, I'm listening. Continue. What were you saying? They packed their bags and left. I will now sit down and I'll be wondering, hey. Hey. You now beat me up, but I thought that will fire you. You think this power we call is a joke? You really think it's a joke? You really think it's a joke?
In acts chapter 13 verse six to verse 12, All Anbanabas were preaching to a governor named Sergius, Sergius Polus. And there was a man there called by Jesus, a sorcerer. And as as they were preaching, the bible says that sorcerer was withstanding them. How he was withstanding them? I want to know. Because if he was a sorcerer, that means he was not withstanding them physically. That means he was he was sending harrows, sending attacks, said no kind of things as they were speaking, withstanding the gospel. Paul became hungry. At some point, Paul looked at him and said, oh, full of all deceit and fraud, you son of the devil. You enemy of all righteousness.
And when he was done tagging him who he was, he says now build. The hand of the Lord is upon you. Power. The same hand of the Lord that comes upon people to bless them. The same hand of the Lord that comes upon people to give them speed. When it comes upon the enemy of God, see what it does. It is the hand of God is upon you, and you shall be blind. Not seeing the sun for a season, Immediately, but Jesus went blind. And the Bible says, the governor believed being astonished at the teaching of the Lord. Question, what was taught?
Power. The teaching that was taught was not what? It was power that Paul was preaching, and he turned to a man and said, you son of the devil, behind the calls upon you. Immediately, power came upon him. He ran blind instantly. There are replies that are not in words. There are doctrines that are not in words. We speak too much. We speak too much. We give too much explanations.
Things are not needed. When I was in school, I was called, and I went to the family that brought a woman from the village who was sick, and the woman was brought to Ibaran to be treated. No one go to the thieves. And they called me to come and greet the person. So I came... I left school to come and greet her. When I got to school, I got there. I went to the sitting room, met some people there, greeted them. Said, oh, she's inside. As I entered, in the presence of every body, young master that shouted, send him away.
Send him away. He's the cause. He's the cause. Send him away. What did I do to him? He's the cause. Send him away. They were telling the woman, is a small child. He said, how would he wants to greet you? Send him away.
Send... And the woman will not pray. She was try... Because she was hungry. So I hungly left wondering how am I the cause? What did I do? Then she was talking. And she said, she went to go and visit our medium. And when she got to the medium's place, she was just talking to the medium and telling the medium that, you know, reporting my family to the medium. And she was telling the medium that, oh, this person now did this, did that, did that.
And now saying, look at now. This one, give birth to four children. One child is here. One child is there. So she was just telling... She was just talking and telling the medium about the children of my mother. And she mentioned my name. So it was when she mentioned... And the last one said, ma'am, she went stroke immediately. They took her to every hospital you go to.
None was able to kill her. They said, so how am I the cause? I'm the cause because it was when she mentioned my name. I could have been sleeping power response. Power response. Oh, power response. One of my daughters messaged me yesterday and said she was having all kinds of demonic operations. She could not wake up gasping for her in her sleep. People have died like that. She went to sleep, and we don't know what happened.
She did not wake up. Strangling demons. While she was struggling, she said she saw me appear to her in a vision. And after that giving her instructions, giving her instructions, an option was standing. It's called power. It's called power. And if you don't understand how to speak this language eloquently, if you don't understand how to speak this language fluently, you will be afraid to do big things in life. You'll be afraid to do great things in life. I was in the marketplace some time ago, and I met someone. While I was there, the guy was shaking people.
And when I was observing, he got to somebody's tongue, and he put his hand in his pocket, wore a ring to shake the person. I saw it. I said, my goodness. That's a transaction right there. Not in the shrine, not in church, in the office. And that one would not know what exactly has happened to him forever. You know me now, I look for trouble. By myself, went I to him. I said, how are you doing? Give him a hot shake on that hand.
I've not heard about the mighty men of David. Some... These people were looking for lions inside pit. They were looking... Lion did not look for them. They went... He said, I want trouble. He was looking... Some of my guys heard my message. We were preaching in in a in a school, and he was falling online.
And as he heard me rebuking demons and casting out devils and all kind of healings were happening, sickness is being dissolved. The spirit of faith jumped on him. He went into the street and was looking for trouble. The first trouble you saw was a madman. The... He went straight for the madman and said, be healed. The chains broke immediately. Madman became sick. He messaged me. He said, sir, as this meeting was going on, I thought steering me.
I went in. She said, send me the pictures. Send me everything. Say power. No more timidity. No more... No. There's no human being I'm afraid of. No human being. No matter what title you give yourself.
Don't you know what we have received? Luke 10 verse nine. Jesus was speaking. And he says to them, heal the sick. And say to them, the kingdom of God has come near to you. He didn't tell them, settle them. He says, heal the sick. In other words, when you display power, then talk kingdom. How will people know that Jesus is alive? It is through the outflow of his power in your life.
There are people in your school, in your street, in your office who are not sure that Jesus saves because they have never seen him safe. They have not seen deliverance. They have not seen miracles. They have not seen healing. They have not seen transformation. So their hearts remain unconvinced. Is there a deity that is worshiped in your compound? The reason why the priest of that shrine is so bold as to introduce himself as the one that has kept the platform of his ancestors is because no illustration of kingdom things have been demonstrated before him. Nobody has shaken the ground yet. So what he is serving has residual power to prosecute his business.
And if there is no counter theory that will counter his position through a superior display of the dynamics of the grace of God, that man will hold on to that belief until he dies. And the reason he will not be saved is because nobody could prove to him that Obun is not the way. Because to him, Obun has more power than believers. Because believers see him and run away. You're not understanding what I'm saying. You can't convince him. The reason he will tie on an unbeliever is because there is no believer who stood their ground. No believer who stood their ground. I have seen families distraught, distraught because the hand of the kingdom of darkness was strung upon them. I've seen wickedness, real wickedness.
So in case you are here, you feel as though, let me... Me, I don't I don't offend anybody. I'm I'm a I'm a nice guy. I mean, I just play nice. Let me not... I don't even pray I don't even pray much so that I will not invite the devil to my business. Because if you don't look for trouble, trouble will not look for you. In this world we live in. Trouble can look for you because you greeted somebody. Say, he's now proud.
He's now proud. He's now proud. Just because you greeted someone, trouble can find you. You can give money to someone, trouble finds you. Because God is lifting you. Yeah. Because... No. That's all. You must understand that the realm we live in, the realm we live in is manipulated, controlled, dominated by the spiritual realm.
All that you see in the physical is not all there is. Things are manipulated from another realm. Things are manipulated. Things are controlled. You think favor will come to your life just like that? That people will just look at you and then favor you just like that. Just like that. Nehemiah went to the king to go and serve food. Normal day business. He just goes there, serves the king his food, give the king everything that he wants to do.
And the king looks at him and says, ah, Nehemiah, you're looking sad today. Is everything okay? And he says, ah, the walls of Jerusalem have been broken down, and it's my desire to go and rebuild the walls. The bible says... Next verse. The king said to me, what do you request? So I prayed to the God of heaven. Next verse. Watch this. And I said to the king, if your servant has found favor in your sight, if...
Can you see that? I ask that you send me to Judah that I may rebuild it. Next verse. Then the king said to me, how long will it be? Next verse. If he pleases the king, let letters be given to me for governors of the region beyond the river That they must permit me to pass through till I come to Judah. Next verse. Look at the request. Let the letter be sent to Hasaf, the keeper of the king's forest, that he must give me timber to make bin for the gates. For the house I will occupy.
And the king granted them to me because the gracious hand of God was on me. In other words, he was making requests, and the king was just saying, okay. Okay. Is think about the normalcy. This was a slave. A slave whose responsibility is to serve the king and is making demand of the king, telling the king, write letter to your fellow king and tell them to give me beans. Tell them to give me wood that I will use them to the Lord's house, put everything. And the king said, okay. Okay. And he could not explain what was happening.
But behind the scene, there was a transaction taking place. There was there was a a... An invisible force that was upon Nehemiah that empowered him such that his words were searing power. The bible says the hand of God was upon him. That is how we manipulate things in this kingdom. That you can go to a man, and the man will tell you no. Not because does not have, but because nothing is upon you. The mistake people make is that the thing that life responds to them because you can steer people's emotions to pity you. That's the mistake people make. So the thing that my story is, the more I can convince somebody, the more they will be compelled to help me.
If that were true, no beggar should be poor. Your first response when you see a beggar is disgust. Isn't their situation pitiable enough to compel compliance? No. People respond to what is upon you, not what you say. If what you say is not backed up by a superior supernatural hand, if what you say is not backed up by the language of power, if what you say is in empty words, you will wonder why it is possible for people to read your CVs, and they only interact with English. They read your request. They only interact with English. You go and do an interview. They only interact with English.
All that you came with is all that you are saying. Listen. This realm is a spiritual realm. There are forces that are exchanging patterns. The bible says there are arrows that fly by day. It means as I'm talking now, arrows are flying. Can you see them? Doesn't mean they are not flying. They are there. They are there.
You can either be a victim or a victor. Have you not checked your bible? The bible says that when David came to Goliath, David told Goliath, oh, is that uncircumcised Philistine? I'll come there later. But look at this. David says, you have come before me with sword and spears. I have come against you in the name of the Lord. It's not an... It's not a fair comparison. Because if you're even sword and spears, that means you are considering the physical weapons that you brought into the battlefield.
So what you brought was a sling. So if one we're comparing was weapons, it should have been, you came with sword and spears, I came with a sling. It means what David was explaining was was... I I look in the realm of the spirit to see what your defense is. It means all this mouth you are making, what altar are you standing on? All all this your bold face, bold face. Is there anybody? Is there anybody? I'm I'm checking. I'm scanning you, and I can't see anything.
All you have is certificate. All you have is sold and spares. All you have is a good result. All you have... Come on now. David says I have an advantage. My advantage is not just in the slingshot. My advantage is that I am in a name. I function from that name. The bible says the name of the lord.
It's a strong tower. The righteous runs into and is safe. So when David was saying, I come before you or I've come against you in the name. He knows that whatever I do is sponsored by another. That's why a man can sling a stone, and you will be mistaken to think that what brought him down was just the speed or the velvety of the stone. No. No. He made it clear that my advantage is not the stone. If it was so, they would have said I come with a stone. Question, did he not use a stone?
That's why Nehemiah said, that just in case you think the king just like me, let me tell you what really happened. The king only listened because of the mighty hand of God upon me. The question a believer must ask is what is upon you? What language do you speak? What what are you saying when you are speaking? You are as you are working in the marketplace, as you are transacting business, what are you saying? You are selling your product. What are you saying? An angel appeared unto Joshua and stood and said, Joshua asked him upon seeing him. He says, are you for us?
Or are you against us? The angel said, I am neither for you nor against you. I am for anyone who understands the protocols for deployment. And the angel was careful to tell Joshua the protocols for deployment, seven days of silence. Walk around Jericho seven times. The question is this, at the seven time when they make the noise, even if they are 10,000,000, can sound waves travel through the walls of Jericho and cause that disruption? What physics do you want to use to explain it? Other than the fact that there are spiritual forces at work. That when natural things are done, spiritual forces back up what we do. So we can...
It can look as though we are making a shout. But our shout is not ordinary. Paul was the one that said when I came to you, my speech and my preaching. Note the difference. He says my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of wisdom. It was in the demonstrations of power. That means Paul is saying that when I came to you, my speech, my speech that means my normal interaction. Just talking to you, explaining concepts to you, doing a presentation, defending a project, my speech, talking to a friend. How are you doing with my speech? It says, when I'm at home and when I'm on the pulpit, my preaching, my speech, my preaching, both of them power.
When I'm talking to clients, my speech. When I'm addressing people, my speech. I'm addressing destiny helpers, my speech. People that should favor me, my speech. The Lord has helped me to an extent. I do not call people because God has helped me. But if I ever need help and I call upon anybody, there's no one who can say no to me. I have to consciously realize that this thing must not be misused. You're not getting what I'm saying? You're not getting what I'm saying?
I need to discipline myself to ensure that this thing must not be misused. That's the reason why I will not. There is no man who I would speak to and say, this is what is happening. They will... They can empty themselves, run drive to ensure I'm comfortable. To ensure I'm comfortable. It is power. It is the language of power. It is that there is something upon a man that when you come to that man, you don't interact with people just by their face, just by their clothes. There is an invincible horror called power.
And as long as they're a spirit being, you interact with that horror. When Moses told the Israelites, go and ask the Ephesians for anything you want. The bible says that they came there, and the bible says as long as the Egyptians could see them, they favored them. That as long as they could cast their gaze on them. Power is eloquent in this kingdom. It's a language everybody understands. And if you hope to rise in this kingdom, it's a language you must speak. If you hope to rise in any realm, so little of God's power is on display. That is why people are in doubt about Jesus. He sent us by power.
We must go in power. There are some of you listening to me. What is plaguing your family is not lack of organization. It is forces that have held down your families. If one man will rise, the whole family will be delivered. Power. Power. A lady met me a long time ago. And she was speaking to me, and she told me, sir, I saw my... I think it was your brother or so, walked out of the house four years ago, and the man never came back again.
He just walked out of the house. He just walked out of the house. What is that? They reported to the police, did every kind of thing for four years, never to be seen again. The presumption was he was dead. Then he came. Did he have mental issues? No. Nothing. Completely sane, brilliant, educated.
I said hold my hands. These forces of wickedness are judged. The hand of God is raised in judgment. And the moment I said that to the young to the young lady, she went out to marry power instantly and forgotten completely about it. Some months after she comes to me, she says, an uncle of theirs died. And when the uncle died, just not sick, just slept and died. When the uncle died, they were taking care of the uncle's room, raised the bed up, and saw the picture tied to the frame of the bed. Tied to the frame of the bed. Spiritual wickedness. Spiritual wickedness.
That if we don't speak power, we speak empty words. Emmanuel, this relative of ours is seeking for a promotion. And she told me that we have been trusting God for many months now. Many months now trusting God, doing all kind of things like that. Going to the mountain praying. But it's not coming. And it's very ambition now because the promotional relative is seeking is a place no black person sits in that office. What it believes is not ability I wanted to get. I'm doing... Supporting him with prayers, pushing and pushing and pushing.
My mother called me and told me about it. So I came. I was a student. I came home. So he wanted us to pray for one night. I went home. We're doing vigil, and we're praying. And all of a sudden, I saw a meeting, a meeting of people wearing suits but in a coven. You don't know you're a marketplace witches and witches, fully dressed, composed, with with all those things you can imagine, but backed up by demonic power. I told my mother what I saw.
You can ask her this or you meet her. I said, this is what I'm saying. There is literally a company that have ganged up against this man in wickedness. Not physically now, spiritually speaking. And we're praying. And in my spirit, I saw thunder and lightness. I saw confusion amongst them, and they dispatched. I told my mother, enough. Prayer is hands out. Let us rejoice.
And we're singing. We're praying. We're dancing. 8AM that morning, I was back to school in class. 10AM, my mother messages me. Your brother has been promoted. 10AM in the morning. There are some of us that speak this language, and we understand the flow of this language. We understand the flows of power. That's what I came to bring you into.
When they found that picture in that frame, they removed it, saw it was dirty, oil, all kind of things, and the man will sleep on it every night. They toyed, were praying, doing all kind of things, all of that does not matter. A month after, the brother is found in the Northern Side of Nigeria mad, asking everybody, how did I get here? Where is my house? Where is my house? They traced him, found out what his name was, what his surname was, what they tried to locate him, and it took them one month before they could find the family he belongs to. Not because the miracle took one month. They found the young man. This is my brother. How did he reach the North?
Insane, mad for four years. And somebody will say, you know, it's a mental condition. When the lady was telling me here, I'd even forgotten that I spoke. That's what power is. You will speak, you forget. But angels will hold your word like this. You will speak and just go like that. But the realm of the spirit, they have held that word and says, no, this one has spoken. This one must not come down like that. There are those that speak, and it's as though the realm of the spirit is is standing at attention.
Say, yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Can I prophesy over you? There are people that trouble you. Those that have decided and have vowed that over their dead bodies, will you succeed? In this meeting, they are let to rest. For the Lord will come with fire. And will inspire us like a well wish to render his hand and with fury and is rebuke with a flame of fire. For by fire and for by the flood, will the Lord be with all the the Lord be many.
All the people that have risen up against you, that said no way for your family, business, no way for your marriage, no way for your career, no way for your life, they are slain now. You hear me? Somebody says, but apostle, but apostle, I thought we are New Testament people. It is true. But the Bible says, in second Thessalonians, verse one and chapter one and verse six. Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to repay with tribulation. Those who trouble you. People are bound. Their business not moving forward. Their life not moving forward.
To marry is a problem. Their health is a problem. And there is someone sitting somewhere just laughing at their calamity. I know this God avengers. I know him. I've seen him move. I've seen him rise. This God of vengeance is shining forth in your life. Shining forth your family. You hear me?
I'm still teaching. Power. We have power. Anyone sitting upon your family, sitting upon your finances, sitting upon your destiny, Sitting upon your future. Sitting upon your purpose. Sitting upon your finances. Upon your academics. Say no way for you. They are crushed right now. Hear me?
I'm talking here. Power. Power. Power. Hear me? We came for a prayer convocation here some time ago. A lady came and prayed us... Prayed herself to stupor. Twelve hours, she was spitting fire. She went back home.
As she went back home, she was hearing footsteps of people running physically. And she was wondering who is who is running? Then something hit her. Almost as though something was running away and hit her. She looked. She looked. She did not see anything, and she was still hearing footsteps. Winds blowing. She called me, said, apostle, I just came home now, and I'm hearing full steps of people running. In fact, I thought I was dreaming, but something hit me almost as though the person was running back.
Could not see anybody. I said, after prayer convocation, it's fire you took home. Those are the tenants you have been staying with. Tenants are not paying house rent. Who have no right, not legitimately to remain there. She got home that night. The mother came and said somebody walked into the shop and cleared the shop. Bought goods in our shop worth 15,000,000 in one day. I said that is what those tenants are. That's it.
You can now see what they have been doing. Those bonds will be doing marketing doing advertisement, paying all kind of people, where now there are tenants that have locked the destiny and the glory of that family. Somebody's living here with power. Sit down. Sit down. I wanna show you something. If you search the scriptures closely, you will discover that spiritual power operates in dimensions, operates in layers. And one of the main reasons many believers struggle in their walk with God is that they do not understand this progressive dimension of spiritual power. John 14 verse six, Jesus said, I'm the way, the truth, and the life. This is a typology of the structure of the tabernacle.
The way represents the entrance into the outer court. The truth represents the inner court. That's where you find the golden lampstand. Is that not so? The table of showbread. The truth is the door that leads you into the inner court. The life represents the holy of holies. So when Jesus said, no one comes to the father except through me. He wasn't just referring to salvation. He was saying, you cannot access any realm of the father's fullness except through me.
When people don't understand these layers of spiritual power that I'm talking about, you will see that there will be a mix up in their life, and they'll be asking questions. They'll be asking questions. God, why am I serving you and these things are happening in my life? Why am I like this? Why am I seeing this other experience in my life? Because they skipped divine progressions. And you will often see such people take 10 steps forward in the spirit only to fall 15 steps backward. Stuck in cycles of victory then defeat. Victory then defeat. Their lives becomes a seesaw of breakthrough and breakdown.
I wanna show you how power is layered in the realm of the spirit. And these layers of power must follow themselves if you want to have a sound and robust Christian life. It must follow themselves. There are flaws. It must begin with this, progress into this, and end on this. Are you with me? What are these layers? These layers and these flaws, we can get them from the expressions or the typology of what we see in the tabernacle in comparison to Jesus saying I'm the way of life. The holy of holies, this is the core. It is where God resides.
That's where the ark of covenant is taught. The ark of covenant, it defines the presence of God. Is that not so? So the holy of holies is where God dwells. After God resides, it is the seat of your spiritual identity. That is what the holy of holy represent. The seat of your spiritual identity. Knowing your identity in Christ. This is where spiritual power begins for the believer. Knowing that there is God on my inside.
The holy of holies. Knowing that there is God on my inside. That is the call. The second is the inner court. The inner court is where you find the lampstands and the table of showbread. All of which typify the word of God. That's the second dimensional spiritual power. I call it quartiles of faith. The first one, I call it your personality in Christ. The second, I call it portals of faith because it is the conditions attached to the results that you are looking for as revealed in the world.
I will explain to you. Don't worry. The humpback what is the thought. That's the realm of visible activity where purpose and destiny are expressed to the world. This is the third dimension of spiritual power. That there is a dimension of power released when you are working in your calling, working in your divine assignment on the earth. Three flows of spiritual power. I'll explain it. Number one, the holy of holies, your personality in Christ. Christ in you.
Christ in you. Your personality in Christ. When a believer is unconscious of their spiritual identity, they live beneath their divine privileges. They pray like beggars. They fight like victims. They react like slaves. But when you become conscious of your identity in Christ, something shifts. Authority flows. Boldness arises, and the atmosphere responds to your voice. That's where power starts from.
A lot of people believe that power begins for the believer at the point of prayer. At the point of prayer. When they begin to pray, and pray and fast. So what people wanna do to touch power is pray and fast. You have to understood the flows of power. It doesn't begin with that. It begins in the holy of holies. It begins understanding that that is where God dwells. And that holy of holies has become you. It begins by understanding that Christ is in you.
It begins by understanding your personality as it now exists in Christ. It begins by knowing who you are. Notice that we are going from inside out. Because that is where it begins. Believers try to go from outside him. So they think if I pray, if I do all these things, if I feel, if I I will see results. Mm-mm. It begins from inside. Out. Inside.
Out. Jesus says, I am the way, the truth, and the life. Paul says, in him, we live. We move and have our been. Jesus is going in. Paul is coming out. I am the way, the truth, the life. Life in him, we live. We move the truth, portals of faith. The conditions revealed in scripture for the result you desire.
The truth. The inner court where the lampstand is and the table of showbread. Do you understand what I'm saying? Or typifying the word of God, the truth, and have our being and live out realities, the outer court. Functioning in purpose and in divine assignment, these are the three layers of power. It's one zero one. It's a series. Stay with me. It's a series. It begins with identity.
Knowing who you are. In Matthew 13 verse 17. Before Jesus ever healed the sick, before Jesus ever casted out demons, heaven confirmed his identity. Three verse 17. This is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased. I hope you know that this affirmation was not for the crowd. It was for Jesus. Do you know? That this affirmation was not for the crowd? How do I know?
Because in chapter four, the temptation began with if you are the son of God. It was to test if you heard what was in chapter three. Because how life began for Jesus was a declaration. This is my son. The first thing the devil came to test is, are you a son? The affirmation wasn't for Jesus. It wasn't for the people. If it was for the people, the people would have been tested. The test came to the one who the thing was declared for. This is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased.
Note that before this point, he was a child. What we read about him is and the child grew. It was at this point that a child became a son. Heaven released affirmation on him so that he would know who he has become. Before he healed a sick person, before he healed a sick person, before any miracle was done, there had to be a consciousness, a reaffirmation of who he was by the father himself. This is my son. The devil did not first question his anointing. He questioned his identity. The devil did not question his purpose. He questioned his identity if you are the son of God.
Every spiritual battle begins with identity. If Satan can disconnect you from who you are, he has disarmed the authority. The first forty years of Moses' life, this was the major thing that the devil was trying to fight, identity. The devil sent him away from retirement because he didn't know who he was. At the end of the day, when he had killed all the Egyptians, the people he was sent to asked him a question. Who gave you authority? Who made you a judge and a ruler over us? It took him forty years to be able to answer that question. And as long as he was not able to answer, the every other thing was on pause. Spiritual power is released when identity is known.
The gates of righteousness would not open to you just because you are anointed. It will open to you because you know who you are. Who is that king of glory was what the gates asked Jesus. When a call was made, lift up your head, oh, ye gates. Be lifted up, ye everlasting door, that the king of glory might come in. If it's not already clear, didn't they announce who was entering? That the king of glory might come in. The gates asked. We need to find out if he knows his identity. Who is that king of glory?
The lord, great and strong. The lord, mighty in battle. This was the gates of Hades. This was the gates of Hades after Jesus died. When it was time for Jesus to resurrect it, death had to lift up his head to allow for this resolution to happen. And death had a question, who is that king of glory? The Lord, great and mighty. The Lord, mighty in battle. It was a question of identity. The reason why Adam failed was because Adam did not know who he was.
It was a question of identity. Where power began for Adam wasn't just the fact that he had authority over serpent and scorpions. It was rooted in his identity, but Adam did not know. The devil told Adam, God knows that in the day you eat of this fruit, you will be like him. Whereas, Adam was already created like him. But he did not know who he was, and so he could be cheated. He didn't even know what the foundation of that power was. He could be cheated. I've seen people all over scripture. Every man who had every kind of power but did not know his identity in Christ.
They had solid ministries, but they were killed young. John the Baptist, Samson. Samson, did you know Samson's last prayer? Give me strength this last time and take my life. Because Samson believed he had fallen. Samson believed he had sinned. So he believed that what was his lot at that point in time was death. He didn't know who he was. He would have taken down that place and walked hard without a scratch. Condemnation had set him.
See now you have failed. You have failed. They have messed you up. The knowledge of the identity was not there. It was not strongly rooted in you. They messed you. You have you have you have slaughtered yourself on the lamps of a woman. And because of that, they have cut your hair. Have you forgotten what was said? No razor must touch your head.
Now you sit down with a prison. So when the air started growing back, he believed that what he deserved at that point was death. It wasn't God that killed him. Prayed for his death. He said, give me this last strength and allow me to die with them. And God said, my goodness. I wish you had known more than this, but no problem. If this is where your knowledge pecks, we will honor your request. John the Baptist had such a wonderful ministry. He came in the spirit and power of Elijah.
Do you know what it means to come in the spirit and power of Elijah? They try to come and arrest Elijah. This guy was roasting people. Roasting people. Saw you on the spot. You came there, you became roasted. Fire. You was not trial and error. If it happened one time, maybe the mistake. Twice, thrice, they came again, fire.
They came again, fire. And this John the Baptist came in the spirit and power of Elijah. But when they came to ask him, are you a liars? He said, no. When Jesus was speaking about the same John the Baptist, Jesus said, behold, I say unto you, a liars have come, but you knew him not. The reason you knew him not was because even him did not know himself. They asked him, are you a liar? He said, no. So even though he came in the spirit, he could not manifest the power because identity was missing. So when they came to arrest him, they could cut off his head, and they had no knowledge of power.
Whereas your ancestors, who carried this same spirit, no man dare to touch them. No man. No man. One of the greatest weaknesses in the body of Christ is sin consciousness. People are more aware of their faults than their righteousness. Yet scripture says in second Corinthians five twenty one, it made him who knew no sin to be sin for us that we might become the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. Righteousness is not just a gift. It is a position. It is a spiritual stance of confidence before God. Not because of your works, but because of the finished work of Christ.
Ephesians two and verse six. And has raised us up together and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus. In Christ, we are not trying to gain power. You are seated in power. Your provision is that of spiritual elevation. And when you walk with this consciousness, your words carry weight. When David faced Goliath, he didn't approach him as a shepherd boy. He approached him as a covenant man. Do you know what it meant to be a covenant man in those days? Entering a covenant with God meant being circumcised.
How God sealed the Jews as his covenant people was that they will be circumcised. Are you with me? So the mark of circumcision was the proof of their covenant access with God. So when David came to Goliath and he said, who is that uncircumcised Philistine? He's saying you have no covenant. It means my coming to you is based on a standpoint of who I am. I know I'm a covenant child. God defends me. Are you with brothers and sisters? When you know who you are, demons respect you.
Angels respond to you. Circumstances submit to you. The devil does not fear people that shout. He fears people that know. What he's afraid of is those that know. That's where your life begins. Do you know? There are people today that have genuinely accessed the spiritual realm. They've had encounters. They've had visions.
They've even function in gifts. But without establishing this first dimension of spiritual power, which is knowing who they are in Christ. And because of that, they have been badly wounded in the things of the spirit. They've entered battles that they were not ready for. They've confronted forces that were bigger than their foundation. They stepped into warfare, whereas there was no shield of faith. No breastplate of righteousness. No consciousness of their identity. They entered into warfare, and they didn't know who was fighting. They thought that just because they were calling the name of Jesus, it was sufficient.
Paul, I know. Jesus, I know. Who are you? It was not a question of what you brought. It was a question of your identity. You're not getting what I'm saying. It means demons don't respond to you because you just spoke. Because these people said in the name of Jesus, come out of him. The demons started negotiating. Paul, who you said uses that name often, we know.
But you have no spiritual identity. You have no you have no spiritual semblance. And they could not answer. Who are you? They could not answer. Imagine ministers enter into a room. You told them you told them that this this woman has been oppressed to... By demons. We don't even know what is happening. He said, don't worry.
And these are... These were seven people. Seven went into the room to lock it behind us in case anything happens. And they started casting out devils. And all of a sudden, you were hearing you were hearing shout. Yeah. Yeah. And you open the door, and deliverance minister that went inside with tie, with shirt, with trouser, is barely wearing box and underwear. Seven of them running out. And you're asking them what happened.
And the demon is saying, who are you? Who are you? Run after them. That was exactly what happened there. The bible is the demon... The the evil spirit beat them, overpowered them, prevailed against them. So when you hear people say this story, it happens. Have you not heard it before? Say, ah ah. Okay.
Hold on. Hold Be careful. They can slap you. If they are talking from experience. Have you not heard people say this kind of stories? That ah, when demons are being casted out, you better close your eyes. If you open your eyes like this, the demon will just leave that person and enter you. There are people that the reason why you cannot receive power today is because they interpret every power manifestation as demons leaving them. They refuse to allow the power of God to settle upon them because they don't want to, by mistake, carry demons. Before we know now, somebody have left what what did not come with.
No knowledge of identity. None... These things happen. Have seen it happen where a man of God went to pray for someone that had a skin disease on his body. They did not enter the room when they heard about the skin disease. They stayed outside and declared in the name of Jesus, you are healed. And guess what? The man was healed. The man came out and the rashes were gone. All the spots on the body were gone.
He went back home. Before he got back home, the first boil came from his laps. Before he got back home, by the time he slept and woke up, his body was full of boil. Real... This was something I knew, I saw. So people that say these things are not lying. When I was very young, I was a teenager. That time, we just got introduced to power, and we're not taught the layers of power. So we started from where we should not have started from. We went to secondary school.
When we got there, oh, power. I've always loved power. I love power wrecking me and wrecking others. I'm in love with power. Power is sweet. Because are feeling like gods. You don't understand what I'm saying. And we were young people. We we we we got handkerchief. I was telling someone, the anointing can be transferred.
The anointing can be transferred from material substance. Even to immaterial substance, the bible says aprons were taken from the body of Paul. And I told someone, give me a handkerchief, and they gave me the handkerchief. I said, yeah, go and take this handkerchief. He took it. Pow. Next person took it. Pow. That was how the meeting ended, on an handkerchief. I love power.
And we didn't messed up things with power. We messed up demons and shook places. When we got there, small boys, demons were casted out of them. Some were confessing right there that auntie Labaja's husband that divorced her and was responsible. This was a 10 years old boy. Aunt Labaja was there. Is the fellowship president that coordinates the fellowship. The boy is the one that handles the bell and plays a drum. And the one that preaches. Power.
One of my guys told me that he was teaching in class, and I was I was teaching. He was humming one of my songs, just humming it. And as he was teaching, turned and the power broke out in the glass. Demons were manifesting up and down in small, small children. Teachers entered and ran out with speed. Owner of the school entered and ran out with speed. Nobody could... It was terrible. The boy came and took authority. He said, get out, you devil.
And the devil had to hear what he was saying. That's not my story. When we were done in the secondary school, I went back home. And there were measles all over my... I woke up with measles. I don't even know was measles. They called it scabies, measles, whatever. All over my body. Head to toe. I just went home, woke up, and it was there.
I said, what is this? My mother came to me. She said she said, ah, ah, we'll palm oil to rub your body. I said, no. Palm oil, there is power. There is power. No palm oil in this place, A man of God. The third day, I could not speak again. I said palm oil. Palm oil.
Then I knew that there are layers to power. That if you go and confront principalities and powers without having this first layer of consciousness of who you are, That is really where your defense is. That is where the fourth floor of power is. You'll be messed up. It is true. What make them mess you up or mess them up is not that they didn't pray enough. So what deliverance ministers in the previous house when these things happen is old? That's where the herald came from. So we think the more we push, the more we press. No.
There are layers to this thing. It begins first with a consciousness of who you are. I'm a son of God. By by reason of that alone, no demon can touch me. By reason of that alone. I'm not talking about my prayer life. Just by reason of the fact that I belong to God, accepted in the beloved. Just by reason of my righteousness, that I am righteous. No demon can touch me. I've not seen how the bible described the believer.
It has taken up therefore the shield of faith. The breastplate of what? Everything that the believer uses to defend himself is attached to identity. Breastplate of righteousness, shield of faith, helmet of salvation. The bible says the sword is the word of God. Are you with me, brothers and sisters? Your identity, let's stop here. It is in this classroom that other forms of power is built. Until this truth settles deep in your spirit, you are vulnerable. No matter how anointed you sound, you are vulnerable.
You can preach good and die on the altar. I've seen that happen. You think that my authority and my boldness and my effentry comes from my prayer life? Oh, I pray. Oh, I pray. Or you think that if I would I would... I'm so I'm so foolish as to rely on that. Knowing how frail men are. What now happens if for one day or two that I I don't pray? Satan will make mess.
The question is, is a sleeping lion less of a lion? Because he's sleeping. He said because a lion is sleeping, you can come and try and bite the lion. Don't try and come and bite it. I am conscious of... I am so conscious of this identity. That is that is he that is in me. That he that is in me is greater than he that is in the world. That is where my boldness first arises from. It is a cause of things of who I am.
That's what makes me dear principalities. You know who is speaking to you? It's not the apostle. Mm-mm. Mm-mm. Mm-mm. When the angel of death came to Egypt, do you know what exempted everybody from death? The blood that was shed. Put on the door. Is that not so?
Who was the mighty apostle that was used for this? Moses. Was Moses outside? Because he was the mighty apostle. Did you say you know I'm the mighty apostle? Angel of death, you can just pass them by. I've done as you have asked. Do you know he would have died? Do you know even the mighty apostle was not protected because he was the apostle? He was protected the same way everybody was protected by the blood.
It means my identity first comes from the fact that a blood was shed for my sake. That's where my exemption come from. Not that I'm an apostle, not the assignment, not the call. That's the afterthought. I'm coming there. I'm coming there. Coming there. Because there's Is power there too. This thing resting on your inside? I know who I am.
I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. There's therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ. I'm not defined by my past mistakes. I'm not defined by my past errors. Demons have no access to my body. By this account, I can rebuke demons from my body. I can say, how you devil. My health is not yours. My body is not yours. My finances is not yours.
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so. Are you with me? You are not just a forgiven sinner. You are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. That means in God's eyes, you are blameless. You are accepted. You are empowered. Numbers 23 verse 21. He has not observed iniquity in Jacob nor have he seen wickedness in Israel. The Lord is with him.
The shout of a king is amongst them. This is a spiritual position, a mindset that becomes your reflex. Because many believers, when you start talking demons, when you start talking curses, when you start talking battles, they start thinking fear. Some people cannot pray because they say when I'm praying, it's as though people are looking at me. Let them look. If you know who you are, you will let them look. But the bible not say he sets a table before you. In the presence of who? Men. Are they eating with you?
No. What are they doing? He's not he's not... There's... He's not he's not fun when all your enemies die. There are some that must look. They must feel the pain and the sorrow sorrow of their plan not coming to pass. They must bite their hand and say, ah. Oh, Jesus. That's my stanza.
That's my stanza. This ministry cannot go down. When we speak like this, we speak first from a consciousness of identity, not first from altars, not first from consecration. All these things are there. But the first layer of spiritual power. Please believe what I'm telling you. Please believe it. Let it sink in. Let it sink in. Let it sink in.
I went to the village. Hey. I saw demons. Me. If I go to the village, I don't see demons. I see angels. I walk in light. I don't stand for darkness. Darkness is terrified of me. Some people cast out demons, but there are those of us.
We don't just cast out demons. We torment demons. We are demon tormentors. That's where I stand. Matthew eight twenty nine. The demons looked at Jesus, and they said, have you come to torment us? That's where I stand. I come and torment them. That's where I stand. That's where I stand.
I was working with a friend from years ago, and we're working in the market. And somebody stopped us. Person called my name. These all these white people, we all these white stuff called my name. The Emmanuel. I looked back. Do you know me? I don't know you. He said, yes. I was sent to you.
I was sent to you. I was sent to you. I came, and I saw you. And as he was speaking, I saw demons all over him. I said, oh, you were sent to me? I couldn't show of who I was. You were sent to me? I said, yes. My friend was with me. I shook his hand intentionally.
So so what's your name? He could not remember his name. I said, what what is the method for me? He could not remember the method for me. He dragged his hand away from me and ran. He had a short name. You meant me want to see for me. What do you have for? What do you have for? You are using water to read to read things for me.
Some of us are conscious. I'm too conscious that there is God on my inside. I'm too conscious. I'm too conscious that I'm never stranded. God cannot be stranded. I'm too conscious. I can never fail. God cannot fail. I'm too conscious. Christ in you, the hope of glory.
I'm too conscious. I'm a new creator in Christ Jesus. All things have passed away. All things of my village have passed away. All things of my family have passed away. Limiting forces in my family have passed away. In the name of Jesus. Do know there was a there was a time in history when black Americans who were slaves were set free? The emancipation proclamation has been signed. But because many of them did not know, their slave masters continue to oppress them.
They remain bound, not by chains, but by ignorance. Until one day, somebody came and said, you people are still working here. You have been free. The rule is over. And when these people heard they were free, they went back to their to their masters. But something has changed about their appearance because they knew that they have been legally acquitted. And the masters were holding them illegally, and they could be penalized for it. When knowledge came, they went back to their masters. Those same people who have been oppressing them. You...
Why are you not working? And they were looking at them. We're looking at them. The masters knew by their gaze that something has changed. They knew by their appearance, by the way they are looking, that something has changed. What changed was not a degree more power? It was knowledge. Somebody came and delivered them. Somebody came and told them, we have been free. The government has declared that anybody who is still slave trading or slaving anybody, it has become a terrible offense.
They said, they went back to their masters and were looking at them. Today, Satan will know that you know. Because the way you... The... Your appearance will change. Your visage will change. Your expression will change. Rise up on your feet. Behold, I give you authority to trample over scorpions and serpents. Over all the power of the enemies, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
The bible did not say I will give you. It says I give you authority. I walk in this reality. I walk in it. I'm born of God. I've overcome the world. Greater is he that is in me than he that is in the world. The problem today is that many many believers are more conscious of demons than they are of angels. But the bible says in the book of Psalm 34 verse seven, that the angel of the lord encamps around them that fear him. And delivers them.
People say new levels, new demons. It is true. But new levels, new angels too. Is it not true that when a man becomes president, his security detail will change? Would you see a president of a nation inside Corolla and one bike as a envoy? Is that what you would see? Would I not get an anomaly? Do you know the kind of security that follows president? You are more than a president. So the question is, how defended are you?
Why are you more conscious of demons than you have of your own defense? Why are you more control of the forces against you than you have? What is inside of you? Do you think that Nigerian government can do more than God in protecting their own? You think American government can do more than God? If they can deploy that much security to protect one person, how much do you think everyone invest in you? To ensure you are secured, to ensure you are defended, to ensure no harm comes near you. And all God is saying is, do you know who you are? Do you recognize who you are? That's where power is released.
They know not. Neither do they understand. They walk on in darkness. The foundations of the earth are out of course. All of this because they know not. What do they know? You are gods. And all of you are children of the most high god. And as long as they don't know this, the foundations of the earth out of course out of course. Things will continue to become out of course if you don't know the reality of what God has placed on your inside.
This is the first layer of power. Christ is in me. I overcome the world. I dare the impossible. There is no... It is the consciousness that makes me get blessed. I expect favor every day. Because God cannot be stranded. I expect favor every day. I I do things that normally people don't dare to do.
It is true. Even in the marketplace, things that can can can get you sanctioned easily. Unconscious. And as many of you as can open yourself to this reality in this meeting, You would find out that you would begin to walk in dominion more unconsciously than consciously. You will find power flowing out of you even in your jokes. Even in your jokes. You would find yourself speaking more boldly, more authoritatively. Somebody is telling you what they are going through. Don't talk like that. Let us pray.
Father, silence this enemy. I am wondering, hey. Is this is emo? The difference is that they have become more conscious, more aware, more aware of this defense. They are going on a trip, and somebody says, ah, ah, Omo, I just sensed there'll be accident. There can be no accident as long as I am here. And I... I'm not... It's all of us belief. It is true, but not all of us know where.
If the death came for you because I'm with you, you are preserved. Let's go. Let's go. That is my consciousness. Nothing dies in my hands. That is my consciousness. Nothing dies in my hands. I am eternally favored. I'm blessed by God. I expect favor every day.
Every day. Are you ready to pray? Father, I want us to pray. You're gonna shut your eyes. This is how I want us to pray. Listen. I wanna give you a prayer point. This is how I want us to pray. You will shut your eyes. And you'll begin to pray in tongues.
As you pray in tongues, try as much as possible to ensure that you're not distracted. Rebuke distractions as they come. As you begin to pray in tongues, close your eyes and see yourself in light of God's word. See how the bible describes who you are. Just see it in your spirit. Don't see it in your spirit. As you are pray... The more you pray in tongues, the more you are seeing that picture. Now listen. Listen.
So in the bible says, greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world. See he that is in you as greater. Now as you are praying in tongues, begin to see the exploits in your field that you are doing as a result of him that is in you being greater. Do you understand what I'm saying? Shut your eyes and pray in tongues. In your own field, listen. Listen. Don't pray yet. I'm still explaining to you because I want us to get results from this. I don't want us judge something.
I want us to get results from this. You shut your eyes, and you know, see, what does the bible say about me, about who I harm in Christ? And when you find out one, I'll just give you an example. There are many of them. When you find out the writer, for instance, is as bold as a lion, that's who you are in Christ. You are fitted with in Christ, far above principalities and power. That's who you are in Christ. Far above. What is the consequence of your sitting down far above? Are you seeing what I want you to see?
What is the consequence in your life? What is the consequence in your family? What should begin to happen because you are far above? What should begin to happen in your business? What should begin to happen in your academics, in your career, in your workplace? Do you understand what I'm saying here? That's what I want us to do. You pray in tongues, you shut your eyes, and you begin to see. You begin to see. As you see it, it, your praying in tongues will infuse power on those pictures.
You watch what will happen. That's why I want you to get it very well. Ensure that your eyes see something. Is that okay now? In light, just do what I'm telling you to do. Just do it. Just do it. If you're in the ministry, see it like that. See what happens because of identity. If you're in the business, see it like that.
If you are in academia, see it like that. You are an entrepreneur, see it like that. Politics, see it like that. In your marriage, in your family, see it like that. Now, pray the holy ghost loud and clap. I'll give you three minutes. I want to give you more time to pray. I feel in my spirit to give you more time to pray. Hello, silence. I see many things happening in my spirit.
So much is happening. So much. There are 17 people here. I heard the Lord tell me that as a prince, you have had power with God and you have prevailed. There are seven, don't say amen. There are 17 of them. As a prince, you have had power with God. What is happening is a cloth, a garment of power. Being worn upon those people. The Lord told the disciples, stay in Jerusalem until you are endured with power.
Until you are endured, clothed, baptized in power. There are three of them outside. There are three of them on the gallery. It is it is it is an enduring, an enduring, a wearing of power. I can see five of them already. Where are the holy ghost? Pick them out. Number six now, the power of God being sitting upon people. It's coming stronger. It's coming stronger.
It's coming stronger. Upon people in this place. Seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12. Moving here. 17 of them. Enduring with power. Those 17 of them. Thank you, Lord Jesus. There's power coming upon someone. I'm seeing like five of them.
And what this power is coming to do is the same thing that was upon Nehemiah. That made Nehemiah speak to kings. And king were hidden to what he was saying. He was making request from kings and kings were doing what he wanted because the hand of god was upon him. That same hand of god is coming upon someone. I see five of them. And the hand of God is coming upon. We believe you were blessed by this message to connect with the Disciples Christian Network and get more from Apostle Emmanuel.
