Welcome to track #8 of predestination. You may be seated now. We have looked at the reality of predestination, predestination of Christ, and also we have looked at the predestination predestined to be something. In other words, you are predestined to be something holy, to be justified, conformed to the image of Christ. These are what God has predetermined. So you must get in line now, chapter 4, you are predestined to do certain things. So this is a very this is the part that is the action part. This is where you come in. Amen. Ephesians chapter one, verse 11. You are predestined to enjoy an inheritance. There is an inheritance that you are supposed to enjoy. So This is why you came to this earth. But we are now coming to why you are here. Amen. Why are you why? Why have you been created for the number of years? 40 years, 39 years, 45 years, 362852467271836268 years, 4947464344 years. I don't know how many years, but I can tell you it's more than eating, drinking, having sex, giving birth. This is what animals do. And I can tell you there is more to your destiny because you were created in the image of God. And the difference between you and all the other creations are that you have been created, the image of God, and are supposed to be different from a just an animal. There is more to you than an animal. There's an animalistic side of you. You can see a lot of similarities between yourself and the animals. But I tell you my friend, there is a clear difference between you. How many of you feel you are just an animal? How many of you are more than an animal? I mean, you can think, you can imagine so many things. Let's read verse 11. We are going to end this session in about after an hour to two hours, and then that will be it for tonight. And we're going to come early in the morning rather than late in the morning. So we're coming at dawn. All right. What do you think? Is that better? Good idea. OK. Also, we have obtained an inheritance having been predestinated according to the purpose of Him who worketh all things after the council of His own will. We are predestined. We have an inheritance. We have obtained an inheritance being predestinated. So there is some inheritance you are supposed to possess. When we talk about inheritance, it's like something that you benefit from without really working very hard for it. And there are some things that God has determined that you must sort of receive, Amen. Now, there are some anointings you must receive. There are some gifts you're supposed to have. You do not only have an anointing once in your life, all through your life at different times there are things God gives you. That is why sometimes when you see somebody, after some time you can see some more gifts on the person. Because after a while you notice more gifts are bestowed upon the person. So like some of the missionaries that we've sent out, initially you find out that some of them were struggling, but after a while realize that many of them mature. And then sometimes you see them later you realize that there's more of the gift of God in their lives. So there are things for you to receive. OK, put it back there, please. You are predestined to obtain an inheritance. Now when do you have an inheritance? Your duty is to make sure you get it. That is why we have what we call executives of a will, because sometimes you can have a will written and you're supposed to receive something, but you never really receive it. They will play all sorts of games. In the end, you hardly get it. So sometimes people try to even go around having wills. So the fact that something has been willed to you, that's not me that you will enjoy personally. I know somebody. I was talking to him the other day. I told him you are a rich man. He owns, at least between himself and his sisters, at least 15 houses. But he cannot lay a finger like this one. You get it. And I don't mean ordinary houses, I mean mega mighty mansions. That's a will. But the practical having of it, no. And and this somebody who does not have a house to live in, but he, he, he owns on paper houses. Yeah. That that is, that is, that is what a will is like. You may not know, like Michael Jackson's, all his properties and so on. I mean, you'll be surprised that very little of it will trickle down to their children. A lawyer. Is it true or it's not true? Yeah. So the executors are the people who execute their will. They can do all sorts of things for a long time, never really experience it. So there are things for us and if you don't fight, you'll never be anointed. Now there is an anointing of my life to be an apostle that the anointing of the apostle is the anointing that is is used to begin churches or build churches. Now, if you are my son or my daughter or whatever you are in the ministry, the anointing that is on your father is yours. It's for the children. Because really, unless you have another modified version of your understanding of what is a family, what is your for the father or the mother, it's for the children. In fact, in a country like Switzerland, you cannot change it. You cannot change it. No, you don't even have to have a will. It's automatic. And you can't write something else. You can't write it for my cat. It's for my nieces, for my whatever. It's for your child. Yeah. You are working for your children. You understand, even if you're angry with your children, it has to be given to them. That's that's the law. You don't even have to have a will. It works that way. So that father is working for the children. And it comes now with my father that I inherited properties I inherited, I inherited houses. I didn't, I've never, I never worked for them. I just became the owner. Never. I've never done a drop of work for those things. But I just own them. Because what is for your father, all his labor and his work and his everything, what he has suffered for, it comes to you naturally. You understand? Yeah. So. Whatever your Father's spiritual father has is for you, you're supposed to have it. So you see, if if God had not called me the reason why I'm saying this, and you never usually hear me say God has got me to be an apostle. But recently when the law spoke to me about something, it was very serious. So I just decided to take it seriously, you know, and it's a fact. That's what the calling is. This the my first calling is as an apostle, to be an apostle. That's my first calling and I'm taking it seriously. And that's tech planting. And that anointing is something that also has been given to me, right? And that is what is coming naturally on the children. So you are supposed to fight to get that anointing. It's not something that I can sort of give to you. But if I could give to you, I would just, oh, take, take it, take it. And then you ask me, take what? So you are supposed to lay back to get it. You, you, we've seen pastors, they call their children and other lay hands on them that they are giving, just like how they did this when when the Judas died, they went and brought some people. They did some brother Paul just rose up from somewhere else and I mean, became the extra apostle. Yeah, from somewhere. So it's not about you saying that you, you are the next one. I'm not saying what they did was right or wrong, but I'm just saying that so that God can raise up some odd fellow somewhere. He's the one rather who is carrying the anointing, you see. But the the gifts that are for you, you have to labour to see them in your life. Fred Price is coming to Ghana. It's been a long time and many, many years ago I used to listen to his videotapes. Actually just watch them the same thing over. The best tapes are the ones you've listened to before, and the best books are the ones that you've read before. I used to watch them over and over and over and over again. How he preached, how he walked every time. I didn't know that I was watching it, but my father came into the room one day and said, you think you'll become a priest by watching videos. But my father was prophesying. My father was actually telling me that you are becoming a priest by watching these videos. And actually, I became a priest by watching those videos. I used to come from school to university, come home and put on this Fred Price's videos and just watching. And you see, you cannot learn from somebody you envy. You cannot learn from somebody you resent. You can only learn from somebody you admire. If you don't admire someone, you can't, you can't learn from the person. So I watched Fred Price with such great admiration the everything and he was the most ideal human being on this earth to me. It's true. You know, he talked more, he is more of a prophet so that he mentioned things that marriage is of a fed Price. We talk about marriage and it was fed Price who made me redesire and have an interest to get marriage. Not that he made me have a, but it's like he spoke positively. So you have faith about the whole thing, that it was something that could work. Do you get it? But I can remember one day working in the church, preaching, and I was standing in the congregation that was just like his congregation. And I realized that what I'd been watching, I was, I was now in it exactly, you see. But what I'm trying to say is that he also has a biological son who now preaches, you see, But there are other sons who what I'm trying to say is that you, you can add yourself to the children and then you can make sure that things that are supposed to be for you come to you as well. Are you listening to that? So the anointing and the gift of God is yours if it is for your father. I tell you, anything that your father has, you must start doing calculations with it, because it is for you. What do you think? Is it a powerful thing? Yeah, Stop doing the calculations. It's yours. If it's not today, it's tomorrow and my joy is to see that that anointing is on you before the anointing comes on you. So many things will have to change. One of the things is what we call vessel change. Give me this bottle there, right there. This is not a Coca-Cola bottle. If you want Coca-Cola to fill this, you need to change this bottle to the Coke bottle. That is when we can put in Coke. If you put Coca-Cola into this, you would think it's Pitot or some other drink like that. That's all. You think it's something else, Vimto. You will not even trust it. So if you desire that liquid or that anointing, you are going to have to work until you can change this to a glass bottle or whatever and the red color to contain that kind of liquid. So before you can get the anointing to be a church planter or plant churches, you will need to change. Some things about you will change. Is that changing that people don't do? And that is the change that when people don't do it, that liquid, that oil, that anointing cannot come on you. So those you have to change. Some things have to change. For instance, if you are wicked, you have to become kind before the anointing can come on you, because it takes kindness to be a pastor. If you are not kind, you cannot pastor people. You have to be touched by the things that worry people without having that problem yourself. Yes. You see, if you haven't had a problem before, most people who haven't had certain problems before can't relate with those problems. If you have never been a widow, you cannot relate with widows. We may all be laughing here, but there will be somebody sitting here who has a certain deep sadness that you don't have. You are just crackly laughter. Your mind is not on anything. It's true. I know what I'm talking about, but somebody will have a certain deep sorrow. I was telling the people in my office, I said that you people, you are all laugh and happy. So this is somebody sitting there. Three weeks ago, she was moving normally with her husband. Suddenly she's sitting here in this office, never planned to be here because suddenly the person said you are not bereaved and it's like you never used to see the husband, so it does not even care to you. But as if you don't think in a certain way, you'll never be conscious of it. When people cannot have children, people are very insensitive. You have to think about them. When people cannot get married, you have to be concerned. If you are not kind, you cannot be a pastor. A pastor is being showing kindness to people genuinely. And caring about their problem as if it is your personal problem, and fighting the problem as if there's a zeal in you, as if we have some personal interests and that's problem being solved. But if you don't change that, that it's not about a post standing there with a Bible and coming to give lectures to people. Are you a teacher? Are you a lecturer? We are talking about pastoral work. Are you listening to me? Yeah. You will never know why people follow people. I say you never know why people follow people. You may think that it's just powerful preaching. It goes far deeper than that. So until you make the effort to change your vessel, you will never be able to carry the gift. So when I say that you are destined to receive an inheritance, you are destined to receive a certain grace and a certain anointing, it's easy. I tell you it will be easy on you to flow it because that's an anointing that is in the house. I tell you you need it now. Another calling that is on me. Is that the second? Is it anointing of a teacher? That's what I'm teaching the Word, writing books, preaching at camps, in church conferences. If I was not anointed to do it, I will not be invited all over the world to teach the Word 45 minutes. Yeah. You cannot imagine how expensive it is. But there are people who are prepared to pay thousands of dollars for me to fly. And they will give me what they've invited me. They will take only 40 minutes. Not that I should come and talk for a long time. Just speak for 40 minutes and go out. We will. We will pay anything that it costs for you to come here. So there are knowing things to teach. If it was not on me, my books would not be translated into Russian in French, Portuguese, Spanish, Korean, German, Chinese. Yeah, not just translated as read, but my most popular book in Russia is The Art of Leadership. Russian version. I've met the pastors from Siberia. If you follow me to Korea, one day you see Russians taking photographs with. So you, you are famous in Russians posing with posing with Russians all the time. So we are, you are famous for your, for your books. It's true. Now that anointing is also for you because it's not my anointing, it's the anointing of the Lord also from somewhere, because whatever I have, I also have it's bits and pieces. When Jesus died, his mantle was divided into peace and shared. All these mantels are somewhere locating, moving in the system, waiting for somebody to drop on. So it's just an, it's just an anointing, It's an anointing, it's a grace, it's a gift. It's also for you. And I see that I'm writing on many of my, of my disciples. Oh, I see it on them. There are people who I mean, there are people who is there some camps, sometimes somebody starts and then I, I, I take over. Remember one of my past friends was telling me I was listening to your camp. And then he said before you came, there was this. But I don't know who is it, Pastor Richard or Sample? Hey, it's worse than you. It's worse than you and that he was out teaching. He was going through the things, you know. So what I'm saying is that this is something that is for you. Now where is the vessel if it is a Coca-Cola vessel, all right, that you're supposed to have Coca-Cola anointing or the anointing to teach this thing must change color. We don't use red, yellow. What are they written on it? Iced tea. You can write iced tea. So but it's Coke. You take it like that iced tea that is black. We are afraid of it. So the vessel has to change. And the Bible said there are there is a large house, many vessels. So there are many vessels, but there is a type of vessel that carries Coca-Cola. So if you are, oh, thank you. If you are looking for Coca-Cola, you want to be a carrier of that. You need to change from this type of vessel to this type. Amen. When you when you're able to have a red top, when you're able to have a red top and the particular shape and this type of label, you are all set. Yes, you are all set, but you can't have it like this. We don't, we don't do it that way. So when you change like this, now those of you who don't listen to tapes, you see anybody who anything you do, you see you do it. You do a lot of things to be able to do it easily. There's something called Sprezatura. It is a term that was developed to explain the art of doing things effortlessly. Many people who seem to do things effortlessly, they, they are, they are, they are displaying the art of sprezatura, which is an Italian term which speaks of doing things, you know, as if you, it's just your second nature without a struggle. But actually there's a great struggle behind it. The artists, the famous artists and so on who were involved in painting the Vatican and so on, like Michelangelo was they, they would not allow anybody to come in whilst they were painting. No, because the sweating, the struggle, the changes was not for the public consumption. It was private. The effortless oh, here's the yeah, that's the one that you can see, but they'll never allow you to come in when they are struggling with it. Houdini, a magician who seemed to effortlessly escape from every circle, chain, coffin, anything that he was nailed into. What people did not know about him was this presatura that he spent hours and hours and hours practicing and practicing, rehearsing how to keep keys and how to remove things, and he would go into seamless, impossible situations time after time again. And he will come out alive. When you see somebody apparently doing something effortlessly, what you don't know is that there's a lot of effort behind it. If you are not prepared to put in that effort that goes behind what you see, you are not prepared to now become a reader. You're not prepared to now become somebody who listens to tapes. When I came here and God told me tell the people, it was like a kind of a vision on audio. Is it an audio vision actually? Because the vision that is like something speaking to you. So it just came back to me suddenly, like tell the people, tell the people there is something called Makani. Tell the people to listen to it. People who know what is in the Makani, they are afraid of it. There's a guy, I remember, he was in architectural school. He said this thing, I will not listen to it because if I listen to it, I will not do architecture again. So he said I will not, I will not listen to that thing. He said I will not. I'm afraid of that thing. I will not listen to it. Yeah. Are you there? Yeah. It's a very powerful thing. It will, it will, it will affect you. So there's effortless teaching. It does not come just oh, you are just born to talk. Every soccer player who is playing, you don't know the rehearsal that he has done every Michael Jackson. I mean, if you want the making of thriller, that's the part that is is amazing. You see him being trained even it was that the film was not called Thriller. It was called something else. Starlight, Starlight, Starlight. That was the the the song. Then as they developed what about Thriller and they tried different things. He brought a white man, a white man who just don't know how to dance to come and teach them how to dance. And so you see in the making of the thing, this white guy showing them do this, do this. And I was amazed at the kind of rehearsal. But in the film, the actual thriller, we saw more than 25,000,000 copies of that DVD in just in America. I mean, the IT looks so effortless as he's walking there and the girl is talking and he's saying it's like, but behind the scenes is that that part is expressed to that part. So that's why when they lift the veil and you see behind, they say, oh, there's so much struggle, so much rehearsal, hours and hours and hours and hours to be able to be what you're supposed to be. Then when you find out that nothing is just automatic. So when you don't listen to Ted, how can you be a good preacher? You can never be a good preacher. Every good preacher is always listening to preaching and reading and studying and preaching, using every opportunity to preach and to share. People sometimes ask me, how are you able to remember this? I remember I'm always sharing what I know anybody I see, I just my wife. When I read something, I immediately went, Do you know that this this time I started as you were listening to me? She's the first person, if I have any, I've seen something new, a new story or anything, I tell her immediately or my daughter, my daughter, my little daughter knows all my she has lady, where do you get all your stories from? So I told her which stories and said that you have told me more than 500 stories. I have to practice. You may look ordinary, but you have to rehearse it. You have to practice. I'm somebody, and I was telling my little daughter a story of a Chinese fighter called Chiku Liang, and she kept laughing. The next day she kept that is that That is Chiku Liang. That story is very nice. Chiku Liang, that's my favorite story. So if you are not prepared to go behind the scenes and study the Word, read your Bible. Now we're reading Bible every day. What are you talking about? You don't read your Bible every day, but you want television every day. You chew gum every day. You have time to do your hair all the time. You bath every day, but you can't read your Bible every day. When is a year of quiet time? You say you want. You say, oh, I received that anointing to teach. And the books that I've written, you don't have them in your house. You don't read it. The one that you can understand, you don't read. It's wonderful. Do you think you will ever be? You will not. You will not be. The vessel must change to carry that anointing. Amen. And then the third calling, which I must be obedient to, is evangelism. I don't know what you are writing. I'm telling you my own problems. And you are writing. I'm telling you my personal problems. Yes. What you can inherit. Yeah. Evangelism. Amen. Are you listening to me? So we are listening to you. Yeah. That one is also a grace that God will give you for souls. You must be interested in souls. You must invest in the Healing Jesus DVDs. This little musical shows I'm giving you, they must be of interest to you. You must want to understand it and see it. It must be. You must be. You cannot learn from something you don't admire. When I wanted to be an evangelist, I started to admire all of them. Billy Graham, there is no preaching by Billy Graham that is available that I do not have, that I know that is that I do not have, I don't know, his messages and that I have not transcribed. I have the points. Yeah, it looks effortless to you, but you don't know. There is no preaching that Billy Graham has preached with his point. Sometimes there's no you can't see the point, but I'm not taking my time to see trace. The point of this whole sermon is going like this and it's passing this way. It's ending here. There is no message by Reinhard Bouquet that is available that I do not have either. His life, his life story, video, this, anything that is in existence. You say that you want to be something and you will not make the effort to adjust everything. Then that I watch, I watch, I watch. I watch until Sunday, I'll say, then I'll say Pastor Prince, come. I've seen something. One day I was listening to 5 minutes when advocate was giving an explanation of something that happened in Sudan and he gave the revelation that re modify the whole of our healing Jesus operations. Oh yeah. When I wanted to like I sent A-Team to Nigeria to go to his crusade to go and stay there and understudy the crusade. Measure the things, everything they are doing, measure everything, measure them, take pictures, count everything in the north of Nigeria and come back. I send them cars, go to Nigeria. The crusade is there. Yeah, but it looks effortless because our crusade is one of the largest in the world today. So if if you don't want to work on things, nothing will be given to you. And that's why I keep trying to explain to you that you see to me when you are successful, when you have made, when you are making it in the mid, then I've become successful. You doing well is what has made me successful. My, my, you see, I've reached a stage where you doing well in the ministry. It reflects on me. It's like a parent. I mean, which parent wants his child to be a bomber? I never used to understand this. Oh, you see the prayer. They'll say my son is doing this, my child is doing this. Oh, he's in this world. It's like they are even mothers. They are. So my child is in this nursery. He's in this nursery. What nursery is what nursery is yours and what nursery is mine? Yes. But we have reached a place in the ministry. I I am a failure. When you are your church is not working or when you are not able to breakthrough, yes, no, because I see it as something I've not been able to to do. So what I'm sharing with you, I'm not trying to that's I don't know what are the things that I hold back from you? What are the things that I keep back from share, sharing with you, sharing things with you so that you, you, you can do well. A collar that is for Reverend ministers. I'll give it to lay people. Yes, lay people whose real work is other things. I'll give you some of the collar. So you are just like me. You are saying you and me are the same. You wear a collar. I wear my collar. We go together. I gave you a cross. I say wear a cross. Also wear mine. We are the same. Because I want you to come up, but we are not the same. But I'll. I'll make you so that it's like we are all the same. Let's just be moving together. Yeah. What else can be done for you than that which has not been done? I come to you and I show you the McKenna. Even other pastors who are not in Lighthouse have realized that the secret of the whole church is in the McKenna. People can say, can I have your constitution? Constitution. You know the role that the constitution plays. You know the Constitution. Why do you want the Constitution? Do you advise that person to get the Constitution? Is it going to help him develop a church like ours? Have you seen the Constitution before? Which constitution is that? I don't even know what constitution they are talking about. The people have all sorts of ideas about where the secret of the church is, if you want to know the church. The secret of the church, it's not in the constitution of the church, but our church is bigger than the constitution because our church is in so many countries and many times when you register in a country, the constitution of your church doesn't matter is the law that they have for a church. That is what governs the church, not the constitution of a church. You don't understand what they have a law. They have a law that, this and this and this is a director. This is therefore he shall be made by this. There should be a meeting and this, you can't change it. That's the only thing that the government knows and understands. Yeah, so you can have because it's, oh, we shall have three general superintendents followed by 4 generations. Please. We only know director. Is there a director? 123 is the chairman. There's this and that. There should be a meeting. That is all your general oversea and we don't understand it. That's what happens. So I'm sharing with you these 3 inheritances that I believe men and women. Did you hear me? I said men and women. Men and women is for you. Yeah. All children who have a setting, they have counted their fathers houses. Their fathers are not dead, but they have counted it. This one, this one, this one, this one, this one. Is it true? It's not true because as I said, you see the valuable things that your parents own. And you say, ah, before my father died, my father had a hotel. Before he died, I was looking at it. Your eye must be open to see your inheritance. Yeah, Or what I'm saying in some way. Is it not? Really. Stop pretending. Stop pretending in the church. I don't like pretenders. Your eyes opposite. OK. If I can get this one, maybe I can sell it. Maybe I can do this. Maybe I can pay my mortgage? These are the spiritual giftings that are available to all of us that are in the in the house. I pray that you become a good teacher. Did you hear me? I'm not praying for you to be Rachel. Like you see this road, there's money on it. That's what people don't know. We don't aim for money. Those who are aiming to be rich are not rich and those who are not aiming to be rich are rich. What a mystery. Those who are not aiming to be rich are rich. That's something I look at people, I say, you say you are into economics, Come and let's discuss economics. It's fantastic. The road, we are on this road. If you walk on this road, there's money on the road. God showed it to me. The vision alone of the one of 20 visions, 1 of 20 visions that I believe have shaped my life. And I saw myself working on a road like that, like that. And at the end of the road, as I was going, I saw heaps of sand. I thought it was a sand from a truck, but when I got close it was not sand from my truck, it was gold. So when I got there I wanted to take the whole thing, put it in my tank. I said look what are you doing? What are you doing on this road that I've called you? There is plenty of this particular thing. Just keep walking on my Rd. Keep walking on my Rd. You see the same thing. There's some feather on there. There are for reasons of fine protocol. This is where I have to end my testimony that I could share with you to dazzle your imagination. It's true. Yes, for reasons of fine protocol, I have to just end. And security reasons, I have to just end my testimony here. It's true. Are you there? Yeah. Believe you me. There are people who don't preach about it there, but they have it more than those who preach it. It's true because it's not only what you preach. That's what you do. Amen. OK, Tell your neighbor. Could it be that you are sleeping at such an important time? Could it be? Could it be, could it be how many are going to receive your inheritance? Shala balados. Now, apart from these three main inheritances, there are a lot of other lay inheritances. It's true. I'm a lay photographer as well. I'm a lay farmer, but I'm not, don't catch that one yet because it is not successful. So far it has not been successful. No, no, no. I'm a lay builder. I'm always building. Yeah, I'm a lay contractor always building when I'm building 75 buildings in the north churches and personally I'm always building always. Yes, I'll when I die there must be an uncompleted projects, churches and personal that's what I believe. Otherwise, I'm not serious. With my late colleagues. Yes, well, last time. I'm a lay put. I'm serious. I have a camera. Most of the nice photographs that you see in some of the magazine shuffling, I took all of them. Yeah, it's true. It's a lay anointing. I'm prosperous. It's a lay anointing. It's not. It's not my calling. Money is not my calling. Prosperity is not my calling. So I'm I'm a lay prosperity Walker in I'm not working in prosperity. It's true. It's true because if you were to study and follow, you will see a lot of things that make can make a person prosperous. It's true. The money that you are looking for, somebody has it already. They say where you get it. I can sit with you and discuss economics and see a lot of business people and not even I shouldn't say a lot, but some. It's interesting that I see people who are into politics. Unfortunately, many of them are not much into building or economics. A millionaire invited me to speak at his not at his personal but at university that he has whatever. I don't know what he is. There is something and he when he was introducing me, he's took 20 minutes to introduce. I was watching him. If no, he was not reading anything, introduce me for 20 minutes. That is not even a Christian, that's not even believe in God. If I put you as a pastor here as you say that you are my pastor or my even my son in the ministry, introduce me like and he spoke and he was walking like this. He was talking to the people introducing me. I've never met him before. I was just amazed. But I really came to respect him because I realized that he was like a kind of a teacher and was teaching and explaining to the people why here and the every every week he was bringing a different the week before, he had brought the chief executive CEO of Mercedes-Benz, the whole world. The next week it was me, another lighter. These are the people that he lined me up with. It's true. That's how I mean to lay. What lay economics. This is interesting, it's interesting, it's fantastic. So I will, I will suggest to you that you should open your heart and learn some of these things. Even since we came here, I've given certain fantastic keys to prosperity. But I, I wonder if some people saw them. I mean, I've already said them and I've moved on. Fantastic. I myself was blessed when I said I said, wow. This is something that people don't realize. So brothers and sisters, try to inherit the things. So many people have thanked me when they are moving to their house. So thank you, Bishop. I will never have had the house. But you, you said I should build. Different people have time. We say, Bishop, this house, this house, this house, this. I wouldn't have had any of these houses. I heard you say on the table, build you come. There's no money that is used to build this wisdom. And I didn't say that in the Bible. You get it. So believe God will be a blessing to you. Amen. May you. You are predestined for inheritance. You see, right now as I'm standing here, even in the natural, there are some properties that I'm supposed to receive as inheritance in this life. I mean, physically speaking. And my eyes are on all of them. Oh yes. Look, inheritance, just something that you just said, let the women take it. No, it's not like that. It's something that your eye must be on, that this thing is also. So for me, it's for me. One day some people wanted to come and take my inheritance. At that time my father was alive. My eye was on that inheritance. They wanted to come and collect it. I pray I there was a room in the hotel. Well, the room was for room 5 and I started to pray in that room. I bound, I bound them. I bound all the agreements, I bound every contract. I guess it smite their cheeks. O Lord, shut up their teeth and rise. O God, visit the wicked in their dwelling places, Visit them with plagues and divine judgments. My eye was on my inheritance. Somebody wanted to come and sign something. Or that my heritance is finished in the world. Hey, that's why I said even today as I'm walking my eyes on certain inheritances, I won't leave it freely like that. So ladies and gentlemen, you 2 in the natural, in the spiritual, let your eye be. Do that. There is an Apostolic see that ability. You stand there. You'll be surprised that you have become a pastor. So there, me of all people in the world, look at me, I'm standing here. It's true. Because you see, it's not your gift. That's as it's not my gift. It's a gift that I am enjoying and it's for me and my children, the ability to teach. That's why we are not afraid to transfer people in the church. I'm the chief transferee. I've been transferred from the Kodesh, I've been transferred from the headquarters to the field. I don't have a Sunday morning. I don't have any church. So I'm not afraid to be trapped because the church is for the church, is a church for all of us. It's not for any particular person. So we are just moving in the church. The church must stay after us. When we are dead, there must be a church. How many agree with what I'm saying? If you if you die, there's the church dies. Confucian comes, the whole place becomes uncle. No, no. If suddenly I'm not around, the church must go on. There will be more come meeting, meeting the church. Oh, our founder some years ago, you know, he used to say this. We have a picture even, you know, that we took and so on. There was a place he came and so did you ever meet him? So yes, that's why I knew him. I knew him. I used to. I mean, oh, I've got a picture with him. Even so. Yeah, that's how it. But the church, it's working. It's working. It's not for anybody. It's an anointing for us to make a church and leave the church. You get it? Yeah. And that is what we are trying to do. We are all in that effort together. That's why the preaching gift, it must be with as well as it is with me. You must preach better than me. You must preach as well as I'm preaching. You must do well anything. I know that I have to give it to you. So that stand up you stand. You must preach. Stand. And you 2 stand. Lydia and Hilda. Yeah. Why? Why are you laughing so much? I'm serious when I'm joking. I'll tell you that I'm joking. I'm serious. I said that you are going to preach. What's as simple as that? You are not. You have not been brought to the church to make meat pies, to be serving sausage rolls and tea. Since I'm a woman, So what? We need more than meat pies in the church at this time. How many know that we need more than meat pies? Oh, we can buy it in town. Somebody like you who is in the church likes us that you've actually come for a camp meeting before. It's not a small thing. You've been around in the system. You are coming. You are listening to the word of God that is being preached. It's a training camp. We are not here to find boyfriends and girlfriends. We are here to be trained. We are here to be trained in the ministry to work for God. We are working for God. Did you hear what I'm saying? Yeah. So my friend, keep your eye on your inheritance so that this thing it is, it is. I will, I, I will walk in it. You see, you see Fred Price coming to Ghana. It's an interesting experience. I've even I've even forgotten how dear. But as I was, yes, I really forgotten because it's so long ago. But every it's an annoying. It's a gift. It's with you and you are moving on with it. That's right. It's wonderful. So I beg you, keep your eyes. You see the interest in souls, It must be activated in you all the time. So, yeah. So my father's anointing, it has a lot to do with souls. You may not see evangelist that I mean evangelist today, but somehow even to have some points to teach about so many or the ability to even make people become partners is is also part of that anointing because part of it is to get the money and that interest. Even a lot of churches are not interested in that. Break it, take it, that's all. Name it, clear it, take it. It's part of the gift. So keep your eyes. Amen. Because you are predestined by God. How many are going to walk in your destination? Anointing Shabalaba, I want to show you another film. Oh, we are almost closing for the night. Just about 45 minutes more. But #2 where's the film? That's right here. Don't copy it, don't save it, don't sync it. Don't download it. Don't RIP it. This one is called People Need the Law. Have you found out where the lights are turned off? Let me give you one more point. You are predestined to cause. Now these are 10 things you are predestined to do. Isn't it? 10 things you are predestined to do, Predestined to do something. 10 things you are predestined to do #1 You are predestined to enjoy and inheritance. Amen #2 You are predestined to cause praise to come to God. Hallelujah. The same verse and it goes on to verse 12. It says having been predestined according to his purpose to the end that we who were the first to hope in Christ would be, would be to the praise of His glory. We are predestined to cause praises to be given to the Lord. Wow. Part of your destiny is to cause praises to be given to God. Doris, is it? Doris, hold your mind. You see when you were, you were fulfilling that you are one of the reason why you were born. Come hold your microphone for that praises. This is your destiny to make praises people praise God. If you were a prostitute, you will not be here making the people praise God. You understand anytime you are leading worship, you are fulfilling a plan that God had that I was going to bring some people who will cause praises to be given to me. Anytime you do something good for the Lord and people say thank God, praise God for fulfilling your destiny. But when you are doing something that your school is praised, oh Wesley girls high school oh so so high school is a good school. That was not why you were born My fear, my friend. I want you to do something in the name of Ghana or Nigeria is praised. Oh, Ghana Black Stars. It's a great you say your name. I want Hilda. And what my preachers, why you look like a Muslim or the way you put the black you are feeling cold. OK, no problem. And he said now they are praising Ghanians. Have you been called for the praise of Ghana? I don't, I don't. You see, Americans have exchanged the praise of God to the praise of America. American. What about the freedom, the days the that and it has replaced the praises of God, true patriotism, praises of the nation beneath. When you say to the glory of God, it is something that is so nice to go. Is it one of the destinies that is written there is that one black and white destiny for bring praises. Those who play songs, play something. Oh, when I'm joking, I'll say I'm joking. From this one is a joke. Play something because you could have used it. OK, OK, OK, Sing that song again for the praises. Whatever. Sing your own key and let's join her. See, this was her destination. Destiny, don't allow young people to replace you. Now you have people to replace you. Saw the praises of man. I will never ever stand for the Kingdom. Saw this world. I never gave my heart away or shout my praise. My allegiance and devotion, my heart, desire and all emotion go to several men who die upon the tree for the praises, for the praises of man. I will never ever stand for the kingdoms of this world. I never gave my heart away or shout my praise, my allegiance and devotion, my heart, desire and only emotion. God is ever a man who died up on the tree. Only a God like you be worthy of my praise, not my hope and faith. To only a king of our King who I bow my need and say give my to us. To only my faith I love you could be worthy, worthy of my praise, All my hope and faith. To only a king of our King you are my knee and say give my everything. Do I leave my make of my Father, my Savior, Redeem and restore, rebuild a reward. Do I leave I like you? Do I keep my pray? Only a God. Only a God like you. Only a God Like you. Only a God like you. Only a God. Only a God like you. Only a God. Come on. Only a God. Hey. Only a God like you. Only a God like you to only to Only My name, my Father, my Savior. Redeem and restore. Repeal the reward. Do Only a God like you. Hallelujah. Sit down, look, you are destined is one of the reasons why you are here, apart from eating, drinking and having sex. Yeah, when you go tonight, you can try it and see. It's always come. There is a raw, I shouldn't say it. You can try yourself and see that that when you see this thing, there's AI have a higher destiny than that. And this is part of the reason if you are, if you are going to live for 16 years, for 16 years, you must bring praise that we should be to the God brought you to death to bring praises to him, organize praises, play praises, sing his praises. Other night the praise, it is 16 years of singing praises. That is what you came here to do. That's what distinguished you from an antelope. When I see women who are so concerned about their children and the children that they are giving birth to or want to give birth to, you just have to watch wild animals a little and you will see that the ability to defend your children, to look after your children, it's an animal behaviour. It's not the love of God, it's this normal animal look. I've watched a certain film called Relentless Enemies. A film called Relentless Enemies. It it can be if if you're dependent, it's between buffaloes and lions for about 1 1/2 hours. Buffaloes and lions relentless. They all on an island. The lions only eat buffaloes. The buffaloes are their only food and they are only the two of them on that island. It's not easy at all. When the lions touch a Buffalo, you will see the buffaloes chasing lions. You will see them chasing the lions for their children. That's where you see that whether you are a lion or whatever. I am a mother and I will defend my child. Antelopes and others, when they are born, immediately they start running. I mean, when they come out, they drop down. They just start like this because you have to start running. There's no peace. There's no peace on earth. There are lions, leopard, everything. You're a human being. You, you take nine months before you are walking, nine months to one year. The person is walking, is holding like that antelopes and artist, within three hours they are running with everybody. They come out on the street, there's no rest, no peace. There's no peace for them. Immediately they start running, moving. Yeah, and you see the mother son looking something like all time I watch a zebra and they caught her child and and then all the lions, about six of them, they were eating and the mother turned round and was just looking. Oh yeah, mobile. So you see mothers in your whole life is for my children. I said she's got something we have to call the eye. That is just leopard. You are Leopardo, you are leopard until. I mean, it's the same. That's not your purpose. That's not the purpose. It's not even agape love. It's the normal human love instinct of a mother, a mother and a father, and animals have it. There's something higher than that. That's why you see many mothers, they can only love their children. They can't even love the other girl in the house who is a help. They have no love for that person. That's why many times those little girls run away. They can't stand it. They sense the wickedness. There's no love for anybody. Me, my first child, my second child, and then my husband. And if the husband, he can move to the side of the point, he should step to the side of the point. And you see, the love is for these children, but the love of God, God. Baba said God so loved the world. He said God so loved his only son. God so loved the water he gave his Son. He took his Son and gave his Son. You love the only sons you have. That's what you love. But God loved everybody and your love is one for just you. 123 These are the people I can love in the world. That's what the love of God. The love of God is far broader, far wider than that narrow kind of selected. Whatever for the three, two children or one or two, whatever targeted love for some few people that's in your family, your biological, that's not the love of that. The lions have leopards, antelope. Every animal has it. Beds have it. Even beds. When I see women, I love this, fussing over their children and all that. And this is the like, oh, that is my calling. My calling is to give birth. Is that you can read your Bible carefully. So for thou are predestinated to bring four children, which will be best? Is that what I'm sharing with you is that there is a higher purpose for your existence on this earth, and one of them is to bring praises to God, to cause praises to be brought forth to God. So somehow you must transcend all your domestic and earthly natural obligations and rise to your eternal purposes. Otherwise, otherwise there's no difference between you and a lion which lives for 10 years, an antelope which lives for three years, a zebra that lives for five years, and so on and so forth. And you live for 60 years or 50 years. What's the difference? No, that's why I used to talk to you about singing, because any time I see a singer who stops singing, you see one of your destiny destinies of your life. If you leave it down like that, you get to heaven and say here I am, here you are. Even they will not in your mind you say here you are. You stand on the side for the meantime, stand on the side. We are coming, we are coming, you'll be there. We are coming, we are coming. Just now here I am. You are very happy that you've come praising God and singing His praises, dancing. When you see the children or even the younger people or older, whoever, whatever age are jumping, that's the will of coddle and the person can engineer it and make the people be here and see these people who are jumping and whatever here. I tell you, if you see if they were not here, where they would have been at this time. Goodness, precious, My goodness, I said. My goodness. If they were not jumping here, they must jump here. You don't have to say they are disturbed. They are not disturbed. That's what we want. We want them to jump here. We want them to dance here. We want them to praise God here. We want the place that we can praise God. If you don't know how to dance, be at where you are. If people have come with modern dances, allow them to dance. You don't know how to dance. It's not a you cannot generalize that problem and spread, spread that problem to all of us. Stay in your seat. If you don't know how to dance, people are dancing. You should dance there. One of the clear destinies of a human being to first praises to be given to God. Those of you who say you are retired worship leaders, retired choristers, retired singers, people who have stopped worshipping, people have stopped playing instruments. Me, I'm a lay. I'm a lay a pianist. It's true. I'm a lay musician, No. And even now I'm more into the music. Yeah. I have a keyboard in my office. My my office where I write books. I have a keyboard and I have another keyboard with like my keyboard and my singer. And I have 3 singers, 3 singers. I've given them all their names are the names of opera singers, Vivaldi, Ida. And then the new one. I start with her name, but I'll find her name for her. Yeah, I'm into music because that is why that is one of the destinies. And even though it may be that's a lay aspect of my calling, I'm still into it and I've never found now what I'm good at in music. Yeah, I'm good at perspicacity. It's a word. Read your English books and you will learn all these words. Perspicacity. Are you listening? So when you see that that is small, that you have small guitar you can play, never put it down. You may go to heaven before you realize. So I, I, I, I stop that. Don't speak, don't speak. Why is your guitar say guitar or guitar say guitar. I stop playing. You stop playing guitar, your mouth like you stop playing guitar and you have you have come to heaven without playing that guitar. One day a man I had a vision or a dream and there was a pastor who he thought he had a large field of sheep and fruit. He went to heaven and all the fields were full of fruits that he thought were his fruits. When they came for inspection, he passed by all the things he thought he had done. No, no, no, all this is not. And they went to a corner, and in that corner was a small. On the field was some capolin. I've cabbaged some few black sheep, and those sheep were African sheep. And they told the pastor, this is the fruit. This is the only fruit that you have. All these ones are not part of this course. Yeah, it was only this small section here. He was shocked. So what these are some, I mean something by the side. You see, sometimes there's something by the side. Is the main thing. You you'll be surprised that there's something by the side, the main thing which they are taking you up on. Is it even me, the people that work for me, that you, you may not know why they I like them. In fact, most people don't really know the real reasons why I work with every particular person. Every particular person worked with me for a different reason, but the reason is not obvious. You may think it's this one, that the person has an official job, but you don't know the real reason. And I've come to see that when somebody likes someone, the real reason is not often. And sometimes what you think is important, that's not what the person likes. Even about you saw something else. So some of these things, they look like lay things. Oh, the guitar. Yeah. The guitar. I I gave you guitar. I told you to play guitar. You stop playing guitar Since then. I didn't mind you. You say about winning souls. No, I'm not interested. It was the guitar that I wanted. It was the Jinta that I wanted. That that that we should be to the Prince of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. Amen. So those of you who even you are not into dancing, may there be that look your church if they don't dance, since I I watch your people dancing. It looks how the landing church people, they dance just like this, but it was not like this in America before. It's true, but it's good. I say when you see young people that have gone bazooka, their mind is not working correctly and you see them in action emotion, you'll be afraid you should give glory to God. You see them and it's not a standard of these are for young people. What do you mean? What do you mean by young? What exactly do you mean by young? Yeah, I think it was 80 something. He would do a dance, dance in front of us on stage, start jumping and dancing and running on the stage. He said at my age, He said at my age, I can't even do something like this, so nobody should start. But shortism here, yeah. I mean, some of us don't know how to do these dances. The left one will go right. We are, we are not even lay dances, but we are intimidated. But we are still in the thing. Yes, in my office, sometimes I can organize dancing for the sake of happiness. I say, everybody, we are all dancing now. Play music and then dance. Just be happy. And then laughter is also an important thing. Must get me to laugh. Amen. Very important to laugh in a world full of depression. Are you there? You've gone home, All right #3 and we are going to watch the film. Are you ready to turn off the lights? How many know that people need Jesus Christ? All kinds of people everywhere need the Lord Jesus, Amen. So this short song says people need the Lord, Amen. Are you ready with people near the Lord? But once you're getting ready #3 get ready #3 you are predestined to perform certain good works. That's, that's, that's why you are here. That is why you are here. Amen. Essence, are you all set? People need the Lord. Amen. How many want to watch? People need the Lord. Are you sure you want to watch it? Ask your neighbor, Could it be that at this time? Could it be that at this time you are sleeping? Could it be? Ask your neighbor, Could it be? Is it possible? Could it be? Is it possible?
