04. The Sufferings Of Christ - The Calling 2

Welcome to track number four of the sufferings of Christ. Oyibo, Yellow man Redman. You can insult me. Feel free. Oh, no, no problem. Our God separated me. It took me out, separated me. He changed my friends. He made me have a different group of people. He made me have a different type of friend. I didn't know Reverend Saki before, but said Eddie, no, you see, my mother is from Switzerland. And so all hair for your, your, your, your childhood friends are the friends that you have from your parents because your mother's will be friends or their fathers are friends. So you sort of know them all neighbors. My mother's friends were Swiss, other Swiss women who were in Ghana, Germans, Austrians, those kind of. So all of my friends were half castes. All of them did that was I can mention all their names. I didn't I've not seen Collegana before. I didn't know anyone there, a Collegana, I had no one that I knew there, but it was His pleasure to separate me. Hey, will I even have one second of resistance to that separation and Take Me Out of a group and separate me to His work? That's what God is trying to do for you. Stop struggling my friend, stop struggling. Give yourself to Jesus. He wants to separate you unto his will, unto his work. Galatians chapter one verse 15 But when it please God, who separated me from my mother's womb and called me by his grace, Is it not a beautiful scripture when it please God, huh and called me by his grace. How many believe you are being called by the Lord? Can how many realize that you are quite different from your sisters and brothers in the house? Raise your hand if you realize that you look a little different from the others the way you are and the way your life is going. So flow more into the separation. It means that when you, when you flow with the separation, you are flowing with your calling. Yeah. All the people who are my presence in the lecture, they would not have been my friends. I would not even have met them in my world. But I respect God's calling and I accept the new world and the new group that he has separated me onto. And the more I flow in it, the more I flow in the separation, the more I flow in my calling. Because to flow in the separation is to flow in the calling. Wow. David, are you separated from your family? Yeah. Are you like the rest of your brothers and sisters? Totally different. Look like a strange man going to Jamaica to do what? What's wrong with you? Amen. First of all, are you like all other lawyers in London, to leave your work here and go away? You must be out of your rocker completely insane in the natural to do something like that. But to do it. And to separate yourself is to flow in the calling that Goddess. And one day in heaven you'll be very surprised what you'll be rewarded for. Amen. Tell the person sitting next to you. Could it be that you are feeling sleepy? Tell the person next to you, if you are feeling sleepy, you are not called #1 and the sufferings of Christ are not in you. Tell your neighbor, Eat my body. You can pinch my body. Eat my body. The next 1 #5 to be called means to be sent. Yeah. Now to be separate also means to withdraw someone from something. God has withdrawn you from a particular group. Amen. Now to be sent, all right, comes from the Greek word apostelo. Apostelo, which means also to set apart and to send out properly and to send on a mission and to send away. Four ways of sending. Number one, to set apart #2 to send out properly #3 to send on a mission and #4 to send away. Some of us just need to be sent away. It's an experience you need to have. Sometimes you are sent somewhere not because that place needs you, but because you need to have the experience of being sent away. A Postello God wants to give you the credentials of having been sent away before, and you didn't get angry. You are not bored, you are not hurt. You did well when you were sent, huh? You didn't turn into a beast, you get it, but just that you were sent. All the girls who went to Mexico, all of them have that credential that have been sent out away before, and they went. It's a credential that they can never lose. We were sent and we went. Yeah. So to be sent. Oh, whereas many of you, I cannot send. I can only chat with you. I can't discover. I cannot send you anywhere you will not go. When I talk, you will not go. So that's why I don't send you. Because a good general must know the battles that he cannot win, so he doesn't even engage. So a good general always looks like he's very successful because he leaves a lot of battles that he knows he cannot. Some of you, if I employ you full time, minister, you turn into a rangoose and I cannot win that battle. So that's why I've not employed you. Yeah, to avoid that fight. That's why I've left you with Pharaoh. So Pharaoh should employ all your beastliness. You give it to Pharaoh. Yeah, that's how to fight. You fight by not fighting and going the other way. Amen. Genesis 45, verse 7. God sent me before you to preserve you a posterity. So these are four ways you can be sent to be set apart, to be sent out properly, to be sent on a mission, and to send away. Amen. That is John chapter one, verse 6. There was a man sent from God whose name was John. May you be sent from God in Jesus name. The Spirit of the Lord look for 18 is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor. He hath sent me. Is it to be called means to be sent, sent on a mission, sent away, sent out properly, and to be set apart? Amen. Jeremiah chapter one, verse 7. But the Lord said unto me, say not I am a child. For thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee, thou shalt speak. Amen. Number six. To be called means to receive grace. When you are called, you receive grace, Amen. And the child grew and waxed strong in spirit, filled with the wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him. When you are called, the grace of God is upon you, Amen. Romans chapter 12 For I say in verse 3, through the grace given unto me, do you see? Grace was given unto him. And grace means supernatural help, supernatural help. So when you are called, you get some kind of extra help. Some people ask me, how do you do all this? How are you able to do this? How do you do this? Because when you are called, there's some supernatural grace that is given to you to do it. That's why most of the things people do, it looks as if it's natural or it's easy, but it's not that it's natural or it's easy. But in the calling is the help for the calling. Most of the time when I ask people to do something, I help them to do what I ask them to do. I show them, do this, do it like this, do it this way, do this one, don't do this, do that and so on. You don't just send, you send and you help. So sometimes when you are sent and when you are called, new help is given to your life. Sometimes some people are even given to your ministry to help you because you are called. I believe that because of my calling, God has given me some people to help me. Yeah. It's all part of the grace of God that is given to a person just because of your calling, just because of what you're supposed to do. Some people come, angels come. In this vision that Regina had when he saw he was, he was standing was looking and he saw James and John and so on there all the disciples of John the Baptist were talking sadly some 2 new angels, 2 captains came and then they said they had been sent to God. Two of the disciples of John the Baptist and they were, they just were discussing and they said that 2 of John the Baptist disciples are among the elect they are being called. So they're, the two of them will be following Jesus soon because, you know, John, James and John were, or John and Andrew were, were the, the disciples of John the Baptist. And when Jesus came and was baptized, they had him and they had the voice, you know, and Jesus the next day, Jesus Christ was walking on the shores somewhere there. And John the Baptist pointed out that that's the, that's the Savior of the world. And John and Andrew followed him. Yeah, you see, John the Baptist and Jesus had interactions on two different days, not on one day when you read the Bible, you see. So the beach, when I was reading, I was surprised. I said, ah, I never saw that. Jesus came there twice and he came twice the first day for the baptism and the next day he was walking alone somewhere. And John the Baptist pointed out the angels had been discussing the day before because these new angels had come to guard James and John because they were called and said they are going to follow their their elect and they are going to be following the the Savior. So they had been sent to guard them. But as soon as the devil sees they are called, you become a target. So God says extra angels, extra grace, extra help to look after you. So in the spirit, these angels have now come and there were higher angels than the ones that were there before because of the calling. So when there's a call on your life, there is grace in the form of angels, anointing, abilities, particular people, they are all sent to you. And so that when the devil wants to attack you and he cannot get you, he will attack the people that have been given to you. Yeah, because this did not happen to Juanita. It was an attack. The devil tried to kill us in Lagos last year and robbers came and shot the policeman that was in the compound with us. And so, I mean, and the Angel of the Lord turned them away and was not able to kill us and turned his attention to try to attack anybody around. And the Lord had instructed the Angel not to intervene for a particular reason. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. And that's exactly the story. And you see, when I was preaching, I've not read this book. I heard about it. I said she was John the Baptist. Yeah, to me, all that I remember that's I was praying about in the law, that is John the Baptist. There is a reason why she's she's better than all of us. And she's been taken away now because Jesus said up ahead there's no one greater than John the Baptist. Are you listening? Yeah. So when you receive that call, you receive grace. Supernatural or supernatural supernatural help are you there Romans chapter 12 verse 6 having then received gifts differing according to the grace according to the what the grace grace of God Amen. That is why the the call of God of my life to do healing Jesus crusade. God has given me grace. He's given me partners like you to give 20 lbs and 50 lbs every month. Hey, I just received a text. They are our mission has gone out. You know, because we are going on the international scene. I'm going to show you a video. Do you have a screen? The screen where? OK. Do we have the DVDs? You have it. OK. Not now. After how many? You like to watch a film? Amen. Are you there? You are there. We are not watching it now, so there's no need for movement. All right? Amen. What was I telling you? Yeah. They've gone out. They've gone to two different countries. Mali, Mali they are and I think they are in Mali now. They were deep in Burkina Faso yesterday, crossing into Mali. That's two Land Cruisers or Land Cruiser and Nissan patrols moving with about 7 people going through the country. See the way by trying to find the way to East Africa and West Africa trying to cross through, avoiding the walls, the rebels and find the way through there. So we have sent them out as an advance party to see whether they say we there to call. Yeah. Reconnaissance. This is the art of war. Are you there? Yeah. To spy out the land. You get it. And it costs a lot of. But even this trip is so expensive as they're out there. So many things, you get it. But God gives grace when he's called you to do something. Yeah, There's no struggle. It just gives the ability to do it. And you just wonder how it will ever be done at God. And so if God has called you to the Ukraine, to Poland, to Budapest, to Portugal, to Spain, to where? Portugal, Spain. Which other countries there? France, Norway, Russia, Ukraine, Sweden, Finland. God will give grace. I say God will give grace. He says having gifts differing according to the grace. So you can actually do your gift by the grace that you have. What do you think? Is it powerful? Is it fantastic, Is it good? Is it powerful? Receive grace #7 It means to receive a ministry. Colossians chapter 4, verse 17. Bible says take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, and that thou fulfill it. Take heed, Natasha. Take heed. To the ministry that thou hast received. Did you hear me? Be careful about the ministry that you have received. Nana. Is it Nana? Yao? Take heed to the ministry. A calling is not just some things that I'm called. It's a ministry. It's grace. It's messy. Huh. Wow. What do you think? Now? What does it mean to receive a ministry? Number one, it means. It means in the Hebrew to receive service in the temple. Some service in the temple, They're going to render some service in the temple. All right, the next one, it means to be provided with an office, duties or functions, Amen. So when God gives you a ministry, He's giving you off an office, He's giving you some duties, and He's giving you some functions, Amen. Wow. All I want to do is to help you to fulfill your functions and your duties in the ministry, Amen. How many are going to fulfill your duties and your functions in the ministry? Amen. Good. Now, First Corinthians 16, verse 15. I beseech you, brethren, all right, you know the House of Stephanas. That is the first use of a care that they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the Saints. When God calls you, you must addict yourself to His calling. You must not develop an allergy, but an addiction. You must develop an addiction, not addiction to drugs. 1st Corinthians 16 verse 15, you must develop an addiction. He says, you know Stefanus, he has developed an addiction to the ministry. Is it not powerful? You must be addicted to the calling that God has given to you. Can I have an Amen? Glory be to God, you guys are doing a great job. Put your hand on your shoulder, Your neighbor said. You guys are doing a great job. Glory be to God. You guys are doing a great job. I knew a brother, he will never get involved with the work of God. I used to go and call him for all night. He would never get up. But he had very scriptural phrases and nice quotations, Christian cliches and one day he just put his hand on his shoulder and said glory be to God. You guys are doing a great job. So I just look at this guys. People have the nice Christian words, but they themselves will not do much. Tell your neighbor, glory be the God. You guys are doing a great job. All right, Second Corinthians chapter 5, verse 18, it says that all things are of God who has reconciled as to himself by Jesus Christ and have given to us the ministry. That's what God has given you, the ministry, the ministry. This is what God, he has given you, a set of duties, functions and office. That's what God has given you when he called you is I've given you these duties and functions and office. I want you to be my servant. Take this privilege of these duties and functions, this office, I want you to be my servant. What an honor. Amen. What do you think, huh? Now it says in Romans chapter 12 and 70, all ministry. Let us wait on our ministry. All that he that teacheth on teaching whatever you've been called to do is to do His will. Amen. The next one to be called #8 the eighth thing that it means when it says you are called is to receive a talent. To receive a talent. Now, the word talent, all right, means a general ability or intelligence. Is it a general ability? God gives you an ability or some intelligence. Amen. What do you think even a way of thinking because I was I was looking at those angels when John the Baptist disciples were discussing John and. Andrew in the vision, John and Andrew were the ones who are very interested. This Jesus, this voice that they had, and so on. See, that interest that they had, unlike the other disciples, was because of their calling. You see, they have received a general way of thinking in some of you. You think that your way of thinking is nothing. You think that it's natural. But it is God who gives you the desire to work for Him. It's God who places in your heart that feeling and that interest to do something for Him. It's not natural. Everybody doesn't have that. Perhaps you are with, you are alone. You, you have so many people around you who who seem to be like that. So you think it's a common thing. But I want you to know that it's rather something very uncommon. Yeah, it's something very uncommon. And so I want you to accept your calling, accept your separation, accept your ministry, accept the message that has been given to you and better, who has been appointed to be a policeman. And I'm, Paul said, because I've received such mercy, I will never be discouraged. I'll never stop what I'm doing because I know that I have received mercy. Amen. A talent. Now, a talent means to receive a gift, an ability, an endowment, an aptitude, a flair for something. All right, it also means something creative or artistic, general intelligence. And Matthew 25. The Bible says for the Kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods to 1. He gave 5 talents to another two and to another one everyone according to his several ability and straight away he took his journey. Amen. Are you listening to me? God is calling you and is giving you a talent. Hallelujah. How many hours excited about the talent that God is giving to you? Yes, God is giving you something to do His will with, to do His work with. He wants you to serve Him. He wants you to use your talents. Some of you are good singers. He wants you to sing. You never know what's going to come out of your game. 7 reasons why people don't use their talents. Number one, fear, he said I was afraid and I hid myself. The guy who was given one talent, he went and hid it in the ground and when the master came, he said to him, I was afraid and I hid myself. There was a lot of fear in the church. I was afraid and I hid myself. Many of us are hiding our gifts because we are afraid. You see, to sing well, you have to not be afraid. You cannot be a good singer with fear because you have to try saying oh to see if it will work. You have to try it if it will work. And you have to try it in public. But you can practice it. But you're going to try it out there. And what about If it doesn't work, you have to try it out in public. And sometimes it doesn't work. And then you get stuck. And then everybody laughs and they laugh at you and say, why don't you? In their head they say, why don't you choose a simpler song? And they laugh at you and they say, you want to be an American, Isn't it? That's how come some people never sing Because. Because there's a lot of fear in the church. One time I was going to play, I was playing golf and I was with my caddy and I was about to play and he said I should take a particular club. I'd already let the ball go far. And he gave me some advice. I'll never forget that advice. He said in in Qi, I'll explain English that who's true I would be. Which means that if you are afraid you will not eat, you will not chop. So I should take it. But if I'm afraid and I take a smaller club, do you get it? It will not go far if I if I'm not afraid, I will really eat a nice score. So I took it. So every time I get to that hole, it's whole 5. When I get to that place, I say who's throw a woody? If you are afraid, you do not. Chop. So take it and chop. You see, if you are afraid you will never enjoy your talent, yeah, you'll never enjoy your gift. Try being a preacher. Try being a teacher. So people will sleep. When I preach, look, look at me. You see, when I preach, you know there are people. Who think when I preach, I'm not preaching? One day, yeah. So I said why you always mention school and when you were in school when that's also what this, that's also what I, I, I have. Do you understand? I don't have those other stories. This is what I have. I've not been to prison before. I can't talk about that. I can only talk about my primary school. People will talk about you, people will make fun of you, but that's what you have. Somebody was watching me. I was preaching and said when it's like when he's as if he's just talking, he's chatting with people. That's also what I have. And I've tried it and it's working. I hope it's working, yeah. Maybe you are a lady. You don't preach. My wife. When my wife started preaching, she didn't preach like one. It's a banner. Glory to God. Hallelujah. She doesn't preach. I just speak gently talking. And it's also she she sells more tapes when she preaches. More tapes are bought. That the one who has preaching have more tapes. More than anybody in our church is my wife, not me. She she's the way you preach once. I mean, in one set, in one session. Yeah, I appreciate who buys a few when she presented by a lot. If I was told to check my heart, I could be jealous. Yeah, Do you see? So if you are afraid, you'll be surprised what will come out of you. All right, so don't be afraid when we're going to start our child. Bishopsaki advised we should start the church at in some outside the city so that if it doesn't work, people will not see. If it doesn't, if you're afraid, you will not chop. One day I wanted to have miracle service. That's why I'm telling you why people don't use their talents because they are afraid going to have a miracle service. Hey, I was afraid Oh, but the greatest fear that I've experienced are in two different places. When I started having miracle service was the first time when I did when I was having the miracles are the 1st I'll ever pray. If you are healed, come. Hey. Who's through her? Tell somebody who's through her Woundy, if you are afraid, you will not eat. I went to preach in somebody's church in Accra and then I was now starting to do a miracle. That's why I said I'll do it. Hey, I've been watching Benny Hinn for months. I'm also going to do miracles, the devil said. We shall see. So when I went, it was time for miracles. I was sweating. I fasted. No, no food fasted. Pray the whole day from the morning to the evening to pray for one. Sick. Prayer. So it was time I finished preaching. Something said stop and go and sit down. Something said pray. Something said stop. Then something said. You see, in your church you have explained it psychologically to the people. So that is why they come to testify by here. They don't know all those things you have been saying so. It will not work here, and you have preached a nice sermon and you are about to embarrass yourself and to spoil the whole. Meeting so close your. Bible and go, you're about to spoil a nice thing. So I prayed. I'll never forget that day as long as I live. I said, if you are healed, come. And then I saw somebody raising his hand that he was healed. 12342 And I remember when they said, but you see these people, they don't know the things you've been saying. You've been charming at people and giving them psychological healing in your church. So here they have not been psychologically tuned to say that they are healed. The devil is very, very. I mean, you realize that. It's very, very, very, very. Subway. Then I went outside, our church outside, now that was outside. And then I went to another country. That was the first time I was ever going to pray for the sick outside Ghana. The devil told me that look, this thing will not work here. I preach about Anna Kaswam said these are very good messages, It is enough. Go home now, I said. I'll pray for the sake. I don't care if I'm disgraced. You see one of the things you must not be afraid of disgrace. Just tell yourself I can be disgraced. Not a problem. I'll be disgraced. No problem of it is great. No problem. It was there that I saw fantastic miracle Fear. There's a lot of fear in the church, but I want you to know that I don't fear. Tell the devil there is a lot of fear in the church, but I want you to know I don't fear you. #2 the next reason why people don't use their talents is concealment. What did I say? Fear. Yes, concealment. They conceal their gifts. He says I was afraid and I did what? I hid myself. So they hide. You hide at the back, you hide in the church. You don't sing, you don't preach. You're hiding. You're a good talker, good preacher. You don't want to be seen. Always choose the back. You are hiding your gift, hiding it in London, hiding it here. God is saying I gave you the gift, you can't hide it from me. Jonah ran away from the Lord, but the Lord arrested him. Where shall you run and hide from the Lord? That's why some people when they, they give birth children, they, they want one of their children to be a priest, because they, they were called to be priests and they didn't obey him. Now they want one of the children to take it up. This is what I was supposed to do #3 despising the gift, the talent. Many people do not know what a great thing they have. They think, oh, it is nothing. I received only one talent. Somebody received 10 talents. And I had only one talent if I'd had 10 talents. I would have gone juju. What do you think? If I'd have 10 talents. But I got only one talent I'm. Not like you. Bishop, I can see you've got 10 talents, but I have just, I have nothing. I always remember when my little grace here who sings for me, she said. I'm so surprised that my little. Thinking that I just singing at the choir and singing around has brought me to where I am. So she knows I never thought, I mean, this is nothing. But you see, I, I, she works with me and she works for me. And the reason why she works is not because I don't know why she's studying in school. I don't know what she knows how to do, but. She's because she sings. Yeah. So that little thing that you thought was nothing is taking you somewhere. You'll be surprised. You see my medical? Knowledge has not taken me anywhere. My small 1 to one to preaching. 25 reasons why I should have a mega church. One or two like 7 reasons why you are not using your talents. That that's it. I found myself preaching in Korea 25 Reasons Why you should have a mega church And when I preach it, they say, wow, I thought it was starting. Just my normal message. 25 Reasons why you have a mega church. Not knowing that was a great thing. When I preached in Korea the first time, the the mislead the secretary doctor told him that this was the best message for the whole conference. Then they invited me the next day, Come and preach, and there I was. I've been preaching 7 stages of disloyalty and they invited me again this last year. Come and preach. I went to preaching stage 1 independence. But here I was. Stage two, offense, easy. I was just coolly moving on. Easy, easy. My small 7 points. Look at where I'm preaching my seven points. Yeah, through this, 25 points which you don't think are important. Seven stages, which, you know, people now, somebody's invited me to Singapore to come and preach, invited me to Indonesia, invited me here all over the place. South Africa. Last year, I was invited to preach. I've never been invited to preach. Just Sunday morning service, they bought me business class tickets, paid for my ticket. Come put me the best hotel there I was in the best hotel in the city, Five star. Five star hotel that. When you breathe, there is an expense, and expense has come. When you drink orange juice, $20 is finished. And as I should just come and preach, first service, second service, third service. We have 3 services by 12:00. You finish and you fly back to Ghana with money in your hand. And you know what I preach. I took my little book, my father, my father, Hey, my small little book fully into town. This is that little thing that you are doing in your little room. You think that this 20 people you are preaching to is nothing. You'll be surprised that one day it will not be the school you went to, it will not be this you have or your husband, but that that ability to talk to those 20 people has given you something else. Don't despise it, my friend. Don't despise your gift. Probably it is your main thing that you have that's. Why I don't I don't mind preaching to you 7 more points about something, what it means to be called don't be surprising, one day you see me standing there. What it means to be called number one, to be given a ministry #2 to receive message the same thing? Don't be surprised you think it's nothing. There's no nothing. Oh, looks like he's just walking around and talking. It's not nothing. It's not just parambulations. I said it's not parambulations. You know, parambulations. Despise. No, just one, It's just one, It's just one, it's just one. How many reasons do you have? 3 #4 What? What? What am I talking about? Yes #4 because it says thou worthless throughout the worthless slave into outer darkness. Because all the King James is unprofitable. Because you are an unprofitable, worthless member of the church. Mercy, that is why you do not use your little talent, because you are worthless. Hey, do you want to be worthless? I'm profitable. Oh. I got myself some cows. Yeah. I got myself some cows, 10 cows, one husband, 9 wives and I said and I said, God is going to bless me like Jacob, my flocks and my head shall multiply. So one day I asked Prince how many are left, how many are they now? He said nine he. Said oh the one that has how many? They are 8. And I realized that the man that I had brought the taboo, it was not performing, it was not impregnating them. And I became very disappointed in my unprofitable Boo. Unprofitable. What is the use of a man? You are a male cow or a Boo. I've brought you to service all these girls, hey? And you are just chewing grass, chewing grass and moving around. What is your use, the reason for which I brought you? You are useless and profitable. People would like to have such a job that you have. You see, there are people who have been giving jobs, There are people that have been giving jobs to do, but they they, they don't do it. They're just useless and worthless in the church. Chewing grass in the church, You come to the church, you just Bishop. It's a nice message. We are blessed. We love you, Bishop. Foolish and profitable church member. What is the use of you in the church after all these messages? Your call is this. It's a nice message your mouth. Like a nice message. Chewing. Grass. So one day, one day one of my daughters in the ministry, she's she said she came to me, she said I'm getting, I want to do my wedding again. Oh, it's a good thing. Let's do it. So she was telling me all the things that they are going to do themselves. So I was thinking, I said, father, what can I do? What can I, you know, what is what if you are, I mean, how can I express my family love and then my prosperity? So I look at her, I said, I will give you a cow. I will. Give you a. Cow. Oh, I felt like I was Abraham or Jacob just going to give a cow so. I called Prince, I said Prince, do you see that unprofitable? I have given that unprofitable cow to my daughter for her to have for her wedding. Go, go and kill it. You see where you are? In the church chewing grass. They've sent you to Ukraine. You won't go send you to Russia. You won't go send you to Poland. You won't go Portugal. You won't go Northampton. You won't go where again? Won't you go? Everything they suggest you won't go. One day they'll be in heaven. And they say, you see, that unprofitable servants must shoot all the grass, Camp grass, Ted service grass. Hey. Makanet grass. We are coming out with something you call the Poimano. Did you have the makanet? How many have the makanet? How many don't have a makanet? Raise your hand. Hey. Makanet grass you don't have you have to buy because poimano is coming then after that optas you. Yeah, point Manu is about to be launched very soon. So if you don't have the Makana, you need to get the Makana for the this thing before the Obtasio is coming. Obtasio is the video ones. Yeah. So listen, I said, get that unprofitable cow, and as I am talking with you, that unprofitable is in people's stomachs and is in people's freezes. You may be in a freezer soon. If you continue to be unprofitable, you may soon be be eaten by somebody. Because when you die and you dissolve and you mix, then it sprinkles and it goes into some corn, grows up. Then you go to Nando's and say, can I have the corn? Whatever. Before I realize. Somebody is chewing you up. He's chewing on the right side, up to the left, then to the right, and then to the left. Now descend one day the the vice president of Ghana died in this sprinkle even the sea. So one day I was buying red fish. I said, hey, is the vice president inside this? Fish being fried downstairs in my kitchen. How many reasons do you have why people are not using their talent? 4 #5 #1 is what fear in the church. Number 2 is what? Concealment of the gift #3 despising the gift #4 unprofitable. The next one, thou wicked and slothful servants. Laziness, slothful, lazy, lazy. You can't lift an arm. Especially phlegmatics. Phlegmatics are the laziest human beings on earth. Phlegm means phlegmatic. You see when you have something, your truth, whatever, and then you spit it out into the sink and it doesn't move. That is what a phlegmatic is, phlegm. You see the the I don't know who was it? What's his name there? What do you call it? He he described different people are called the different fluids in the body. Is he phlegmatic? The phlegm that doesn't move the sanguinos does a blood sanguine. And there was other choleric like the the bile, the the the the beta bile of the body, The the green bile that you know, when it goes into the thing, it can spoil. Yeah. So the fluid blood and the bile beta. And that was the last one, the melancholic. I don't know what that one is. Huh. Black bile. Yeah, so see the phlegm, they can't move like I'm preaching phlegmatics. When you marry them, they are, they look, they are very easygoing. You can stay with them forever. But their biggest weakness is stubbornness. A. Cannot easily change. Never moving, never changing. No activity a would change. Can't change ever. Shall be heaven. Forgiveness made easy. Amen. Thou slot full seven. Look, if you want to work for God, start when you are young, because the work of God involves a lot of energy. Time. You have some time. I've been preaching for some hours. Yeah, I came some time ago and I I'm from a campo. When I finished preaching, then we left to drive to the airport for three hours. When we got there, straight to the plane, sat down, took off, landed here from the airport, straight here. I've not gone anywhere. And then as soon as I arrive, say they are ready, then we start again. What do you think? And I'm starting. So you need energy. If you don't have energy, you cannot do this work and laziness cannot help you, right? But now I've finished for the day so that I can go for dinner, recline. I can recline and have my dinner. Do you understand? Or you think I shouldn't have my dinner? Yeah, because I've not had my lunch. I. Have to recline with my dinner. What do you think? Or I shouldn't recline? What about if I'm reclining and I see Judas on the side? Amen. Slothful then the next one is wicked, thou wicked and slothful 7 and wicked. That's the sixth reason why people do not use their talents is they are wicked, hey? Philip, are you cold? You can move here. This place is warmer. Your feet, this place is warmer. Ladies, you can come recline on this side. You are not feeling cold. I don't want him to be annoyed that I've favored the ladies. I've left the brothers. Mercy Zig Zag. OK, Wicked. When you have something, you don't give it to somebody. What are you? When you know something, you don't tell somebody. What are you wicked? There was a man who was at the reception of a hotel and when he came there peasant came to check in at the hotel and when the guy finished checking the small these type of domestic hotels homely place. So when he finished checking it tanning he was going and he saw a dog lying there and he asked does your dog bite? The man said no, and then he went. He was going that dog. Attacked him and beat him. I I asked you whether your dog bites. You said your dog, he said. But that is not my dog. That dog is not my dog is not my dog. The guys, my dog doesn't bite. My dog doesn't bite. Hey, the guys freaking you look at this dog bites, but it's not your dog and they have asked you does your dog bite? They said my dog doesn't bite. And the guy walked by the dog bit him. Hey, it's like you know the man is going to be attacked. Say my dog doesn't bite. See, when you know something you don't say and sometimes you hide behind technical reasons not to, not to help or not to do. It's like, Oh yes, my dog doesn't buy S Technically you are right, but in your heart you are wrong. Technically you may say, Oh yes, I have to do my masters. You may say, Oh yes, my father said yes, my mother said, but you know, in your heart it's not your mother and it's not your father, but it. Is you. One day I was taking an offering. I was taking an offering for instruments in a particular church and I said, how many want to give an offering for this? What do you call it? And if you I talked a lot and raised funds, so raise your hand. So I was just about to close my eyes and all those who wanted to give you. Then there was a white man in the church was married to one of the people that were there. He was sitting by his wife. Want to give? An offering. Lift your hand. So he lifted his hand. close your eyes. He lifted, then his wife pulled a hand. So I saw the wife because the hand was just going up when he pulled up. But I saw straight there after church, the lady came to see me. She said, you know, I wanted to give the we we I wanted to give for the instruments and you know, these white people, your husbands, we know these white people. That's what she told me So but we will see what to do. And I said to myself, look at you liar. You are hiding behind your husband saying somebody's a white people. And we are saying that that is why an argument you wicked. I'm profitable member. Amen. What do you think? And the last one is judgmental. Judgmental. It says I know thee, that thou at a hard man reaping where he has not sown, reaping what he has not sown. So I'm not going to work for you. You have passed judgment on me. Criticize me. When you criticize somebody, you can't be what you criticize. You can't have what you fight. You can't have me as your friend if you fight me. Can you have me as your friend if you fight me? So don't be judgmental. Maybe I am not preaching as well as you think I should. Or I'm not doing something as you think I should. And it when I say in it, you say in it and it. Yeah, yeah. But God knows my faults. He knows I was a madra. And he's called me to be a policeman, Chief Inspector of police. He likes me. So don't criticize me. When you criticize me, you criticize yourself. You are worse than I am. You also don't qualify. As soon as you begin to criticize, you can do it. Some people are poor in their churches because of how they've criticized people raising funds. I'm happy that I never criticized Benihin or any of those people raising funds and partners because then now it will be difficult for me to raise funds and partners. I am doing what I could have criticized. Regina said he's seen it in the spirit. Several people cannot do what they are supposed to do because of what they've said. Spoken against prosperity, spoken against giving, spoken against all those. So now they are ministers and they are in need. They can't because of what they said. They are bound by their own words. So sometimes your judgment on me is so strong and your criticism of me is so much, and you cannot do. Much. Because you realize that to go for it, you have to be just like me and you have already cast me and cast everybody who is like me. So now you have to step into my shoes and it's difficult for. So if you are not going to be full time, don't talk anything about it. Because one day you'll be surprised. Some of you, some of you are going to work for God last minute 11th hour. Some of the old layers, they are going to be 11th hour employees. We have been laymen for a long time. But just before you die, you work for him. Yeah. And your reward will be like the same as somebody who has worked for a lot, according to that parable. Yeah, God will deploy you and employ you just because of His message. Not because you're going to do much, but out of His message. You give you a chance. Just before you go hey. Huh. She's saying Amen. Don't be worried some of you it's going to be a last effort. Look, why did he employ people that our 7th, 5th, 7th, 11th, ah, why did he employ some 11th hour to pay him seven times what he was paying the first guy? Why? Because it was it's out of mercy for him to have just one hour of work, but not that he will contribute anything to the work, but just for mercy. God, that's God's mercy, that's his love. I said that's his mercy and that's his love to just give you something to do. Amen. So that God includes you, not because we are coming to add anything much or make a difference, but it's just his love and his mercy for you. Yeah, I'm telling you. So don't, don't criticize, don't criticize Pastor Paul for going to Venezuela. Rather encourage him, praise him, give him he should give him offerings when he comes up. Paul Yes, he has 20 lbs. I'm touched by your life. I'm touched by what I see you doing. Let me just bless you with as you are a good example. He has 20 lbs Pastor Jude, you give him 20 lbs. I'm a professional like you. You've left me and I'm encouraged by. Sow a seed in his life. Don't don't don't despite don't think you are different from him. 200 lbs Yeah, yeah, yeah, you could you could just to a seed in his life. So I'm encouraged by you see Pastor David, this come from Jamaica. Pastor David, take this 20 give it to Adline to bless your your wife. She's out there on the mission field. I'm so. Encouraged by your life? Don't feel, don't be angry with him because you, you'll be surprised that you will be him at the 7th hour, 11th hour, 5th hour. Don't criticize it. You never know when that is you. Hey, I tell you so all this Daniel, do you understand? See these people just encourage Daniel or Paul. We used to work together on the churches work and Sonia, you've left me later. I'm so encouraged and touched by your life. Take this 20 lbs to give to your wife. It's just I just feel like I should bless you and encourage you. You really inspire me that's what. Don't say anything, don't say we will see. No we are watching. No, no, no. Don't watch. Encourage, Encourage many. He'll encourage anything that is different from you. One day it may be you, even if you don't understand it, or you don't like it, or you don't want it or you don't see. Why? Or you think maybe the person is favored or the person has some special whatever, the person is liked or whatever. Oh no, don't be angry. One day it may be. And that's why you see what I'm saying to the lay pastors. That is the that's how God is. God is said that I can work for him from the time I'm 16 and you can work for him from the age of 52 to 54. And you get the same reward of me who aspect from 16. That's because you give me a big reward. And it doesn't mean that he doesn't want to give you a good. He can give you the same reward because God is sovereign. Yeah, I mean, even I am an employer, I can employ somebody. I can, I can show favor to who I want to show. And I mean, once I've not done something wrong to you, I've not reduced what I've given you or harmed you, I can decide to give somebody whatever else I feel like giving. Yeah. And I and I do it. I do it. I favor people sometimes. Oh, I I'm blessed by your input in my life, my ministry, and I've not harmed anybody. Don't have anybody. That's how God is. God can choose that. I'm going to pay you 11 times for your two years of service. That will be equal to somebody's 50 years of ministry. It's in the Bible. I didn't invent it. It's in the Bible. So so so please lay people and when you see full timers, sow seeds in their life and carry it so that. We will be one in the spirit, lay person and full time. We are one because you never know where you may exchange places. You never know when an Angel will appear to you in your room, feeling, feeling. You see it like this. An Angel and your hair will stand up straight like this. And then next morning. You will realize that there is nothing left for you to do. One of my lay pastors, I used to talk to him about the ministry, but he did not want to. So one day he was admitted to the hospital. They didn't even know what was wrong with him and he knew that he was seriously ill. I mean, before I realized he was discharged, but as the illness progressed, I realized that God was speaking to him. I was there when he himself came. He himself came. I surrender all to Jesus. One of Our Lady pastors died just I buried her just the day before I left. She had been ill for some time, but I remember before she died, she was a lay pastor. Before she died, she asked or I, I don't know how she kept they kept saying the trip that I asked her, but I thought she asked me, but whichever is the same. She worked said, oh, she come along for the healing Jesus and be involved. You know, they go to when they're going for a crusade, they go long before and they stay there. They have it. There's a prayer campaign that goes on. So they go there long time before the crusade and they stay there and pray, you see. So I said join them. I knew she was ill. She had stopped working. So join them. You go along and be involved. Amen. At the last minute. So don't be angry with all of you. Stand up. Stand you to turn around. You see these these people are heroes. Yeah, they're heroes. They have done things which most of you are afraid of doing, can't do, won't do. So you must honor them when you see them. Don't be. Quiet. Don't say Oh. How? Honor them. Sow seeds in their life. Bless them. You may be blessing yourself. What do you think? You are blessed. Amen. Sit down. Yeah. If you had, if you were practicing in a law firm, living here without crisis and without any problems, you are a cleaner and you will not go and somebody is a lawyer. You are a cleaner and you will not go. You are a cleaner and you will not go, security man, you will not go. There's no crisis or problem in his life and he's going. What do you think? Do you understand what I'm saying? Some of you ladies you should send you buy this is for for their wives to Juliet and to Adline This is for. Them this is some of you. That's why sometimes, you know God cannot give you something, so I cannot even give you a child because you've never loved anybody's child. Yeah. You can never even have your husband because you've never loved somebody's marriage. If only I did from the bottom of your eye. Level. And you said to yourself, that girl is ugly, she shouldn't have that man as a husband. You are now deciding who is ugly in the church. No wonder you are all alone. Amen. Are you getting nice and tired or getting stronger? OK, stand to your feet. Who is the one giving the leukozade? OK, back to calling. To be called means to receive a gift from God #8 #9 thank you. Have I given you that one? Number nine, I'm still telling you what it means to be called. And there are 10 things. So I'm on #9 to be called means to be given a gift. And a gift means number one is from the word charisma. It means a spiritual endowment or a religious qualification or a miraculous faculty. Wow, a miraculous faculty. How many are glad? You can have a miraculous faculty. As soon as there's something miraculous about you, it means you are called. Has anybody had anything miraculous unusual about your life? Hey man, your whole life is miraculous. How many things that your whole life is been? How many know that being at this camp is miraculous? Is it miracle? When I went to America Monday morning, there was a whole camp there and it's miraculous. America Monday morning. America, the land of the home of the what? Brief Romans chapter one verse 11 for I long to see you that I may impact to use some spiritual gift to the end that you may be established. How many know that when God gives you a gift, you are being established? Oh. Is it not wonderful what is establishing you? You know, when I was in school, I don't have good memories of school boarding school. I didn't like it. When my son was going to school, I told him, look, people hate half castes, half colored people like me, they hate them. And recently told my wife. He said Daddy told me when I was good, he really suffered in the school. Hey, my life was miserable. But when I received a gift of God to save him, I became a stubborn. I even had some importance person. Richard, you would have been a math teacher if you had gotten a job today. These are all your children. What do you think? Is it fantastic? I got this along to sort of make you think about how mulliganos you are now without the gift. Do you know what a Mulligan is? In golf? When you play the ball goes off whatever and you want to be kind, you say that it's a Mulligan that's it's known scoring Mulligan. You see, it's not counted. So when you are a Mulligan, you are not counted in London Messi, but you shall be counted in the name of Jesus. Amen. OK, next one having them gifts differing according to the grace that is given us, whether prophecy prophecy, let us prophecy gifts Romans 12 or 6. Now first Corinthians chapter 14 verse one follow after charity and desire spiritual gifts. Oh how many desire calling. I desire my calling more and more and more. All I want is more of you, nothing desire, Lord, but more of you, more of you. All right, all right, all right, all right. Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, and the lay none of hands. Finally #10 To be called means to receive an office. An office, Amen. An office, What does it mean to be an office in Libya #1 it means to receive a responsibility. Some of there's somebody here responsible for Poland, somebody here responsible for Romania, there's somebody here responsible for Ukraine to be called. Means to be given an office, There's somebody here responsible for Portugal, somebody here responsible for Spain, somebody here responsible for Germany. God has given you a responsibility. To be called means to be given an office and to be office. To be given an office means to be given a responsibility. You know, Andy, there was a brother, he was going somewhere on the mission and I told him. I told him and I still believe it, you know. But before he left, I said God has given, and I mentioned a particular part of the world, and I said God has given you that place. That's he was going somewhere. But I said, you're going there, but you're actually going somewhere else. The devil attacked him and deceived him and he eventually left the church. So when he left the church, he's gone somewhere else. Now he does not even play drums. Neither is he an Asher nor anything. Meanwhile, somebody who has started a church before, so for him to live, what it means is that he has actually left his responsibility, you see, because he was given another place. Even the place he went was just a starter pack. Hey, a place of work. It means a place of work. Don't leave your place of where. Please do it. Please do your work. Amen. The next one. It means a position. A position. Then it also means a function. Please take your position. Don't let anybody take your position. Ah, don't let anybody take your position. Don't let anybody take your function. And how do you keep from letting somebody take your function? You keep going forward. You don't keep your position by staying at the same place saying I'm guarding this position. No, you, you take, you keep your position by moving forward spiritually. This message continues on the next track. Keep listening.
