Welcome to track #19 or finish what you started. Hallelujah. All right, please. Let's let's settle down quickly. How many of us are getting the books? All right? Do we have them already? I really hope so. OK, just to announce again, we have copies of the mechanism and the mechanism is a must have for all pastors, lay ministers, shepherds. You must really have it. And so we have limited copies that you must get and go home with, especially for those who travel far and came. Amen. So book your peace, get your mechan and everything, and the message of the camp will be ready soon. Book a copy for yourself. Hallelujah. Are we ready? Well, let's put our hands together. Welcome, our Bishop. OK, good, good #21 so #20 is do not establish a private side fellowship of your countrymen or your tribesmen or your special friends in the Church. Can I have an e-mail from somebody? Ask your neighbour, do you have any special group that you are forming somewhere #21 Periodically organize pleasant surprises for your pastor. Periodically organize a pleasant surprise. Oh, Pastor, I wanted to surprise you with this. As Pastor Jake has come to South Africa, you have to make the extra effort to make him feel welcome. Amen. Oh, you don't understand what I'm saying because he could automatically feel neutral, neutral feelings from you. But you don't have to give him neutral feelings because one day you may also be in the same situation and you will receive negative because you also be multiplied. So don't be neutral, be positive because he's an honorable person. Nigeria is a place a lot of people are afraid of. But many years ago, I said to him, go to Nigeria and be there. And he went and establish a church there. And churches, you understand, one of the most difficult. That's why I dedicated the book Sacrifice Stick Up Your cross to him and his wife, Kezia. There's a very difficult thing to do because if if you don't know Nigeria or if you hear about Nigeria, you become scared. Yeah. And there are all kinds of fantastic stories about Nigeria. Have you heard a lot of things about Nigeria? So if you are being sent as a missionary there and it's like you don't have a choice, just go. It's a very wild thing, see? But he went there to the place, to the time when Nigeria became homely for us. We were happy to go there. I used to take a lot of people there. We enjoyed ourselves there. It was exciting, you understand? Yeah. It's something that many of you can never do. And I sent him. He went and he did well on the last Sunday that I was there. I appreciate so many. If I laid hands of all the members, so many people were coming by, you understand? Yeah. So you may not know the person. So instead of being neutral. We hear you are being brought here. We are watching you. Our eyes. How are you? No, that is not how you must be. You must be positive and you must be pleasant and encouraging and welcoming and not What did they say I should say? What did they say? I should do you understand, and what we are doing is going to make the church in South Africa stronger because a church is truly nobody's church. See, I may be the founder of that church, but even if that is not really true because a lot of people help me to do what I'm doing. So we are. All found this. It's true. There's so many founders. Do you get it? Yeah. They're all founders of the church. Oh, you don't understand what I'm saying. A lot of people work. So as we keep rotating, moving around, the church is there. It's stable. It belongs to no one. It belongs to God because it does not belong to me. I cannot control it. I cannot do it. It is God's church. I understand. So it is good and it's a blessing. And anytime that it does something new, it brings new energy, new life, new strength to attack old problems. Amen. Are you listening to me? Very good. The next one, when your head is going on a journey, you must be at the airport or the station to see him off. It is also important to be there to welcome him with joy. Amen. Must work on him happily. We are happy you are back, not that you be in your house. I hear he's come. I hear he has come. I hear he is in town. Who is he? Our man. It's a pity. Amen. What do you think? Is it a good idea? Sometimes you must organize. Welcome party. We are happy that you have come and we want you to know as we were with Moses, so we shall be with you. Amen. That's what they told Joshua when he became the commander. They said as we obeyed Moses. They didn't. They didn't obey Moses, but they said, as we obey Moses, we shall also obey you. But they told him something that was very encouraging when Joshua became the command, they told him, they said. If. Anyone rebels against you, he shall be put to death. We shall put him to death. We will kill him. So that's what you must says as we supported Pastor Kingsley. France. Are you there? Who else was around at the very beginning there, France. Henny. And who else? Zama was there. Who else? Who? You were there the first time when I came here. OK, Gabriel. Gabriel, wow, yes, it's true. He was there. Wonderful. Amen. So you say, as we were with Pastor Kingsley, we shall be with you as we were with Pastor Klufio. How many years were you here that they have been 10 years of his life, driving up and down 80 kilometers this way, 80 kilometers back, 160 a day for 10 years. So how we, as we serve him and we obeyed him. We obeyed Pastor Cliff, you, Pastor Jake, we want you to know that we shall obey you, we shall serve you and we shall support. And if any man, any man will rebel against your commandments, we we shall put him to death to win a war. Yes. Chaboy. What do you think? Is it a powerful thing? That is powerful. Amen. Are you listening to me? Very good. Now #23 during counseling sessions, you must learn to assist properly. You understand if your pastor is counseling somebody, you are there When the pastor speaks, you must assist him. And you must ask, do you understand what pastor is saying? You understand what pastor maybe the pastor is explaining. From Joshua chapter 1, something you know when Joshua came and he was whatever you see he has explained. If you disobey him, we shall put him today and say you have to support him. Then you are sitting there and you are assisting. You have to say do you understand what pastor is saying? Do you understand what pastor is saying that Then you say what pastor said. You don't say there are. 3. Revelations you must get at this time, Ezekiel. The first one is in Ezekiel, the second one is in Proverbs 27, and the third is in Isaiah chapter 14. Tell your Bible. I want to share those things with you right now to buttress what the pastor is saying. No, no, no, no. We don't need all that, all that we needed to ask. Do you understand what the pastor is saying? He is saying that exactly what he's saying. Explain it to them. Don't bring your new revelation. I said, and I was reading a book by Rick Warren. Have you read that book on the purpose driven this and that? He was also making the same point. He used an illustration of a coin and the horse and the horse was timing. The horse went to the journey and the snake was sitting on the back of the horse. You have to hear that, OK? No, you have to. Let me tell you that story and then also the story of the man with the eagle. Do you know that story? So the pastor is sitting there like somebody who doesn't have explanations for the things that he's saying. He doesn't have windows, and you have windows. Don't let your past. Don't do something that makes your pastor look less in front of the congregation. One day I went to preach somewhere and I gave an example. I shouldn't have really given that example. I mean, not really, not a negative thing, but I gave her after the pastor took me aside and said let me, let me sort you out. It was not easy for me that day. In fact, he didn't even sort me out on that day, Sorted me out the day after. When I came, I realized that the pastor he had invited, but he was no more smiling at me. Yeah, he was no more smiling and I was wondering what was going on and after sometime he said please sit down, we want to talk to you. Somebody who has invited me from my country to come and preach, they say that we want to talk to you, he said yesterday. When you. Preached. You said this, this, this, this and that, he said. I did not invite you here to come and make me lower in front of my congregation. Oh. I felt so I said, oh. I didn't have. Such a bad as I saw, I said. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. But I didn't even give in here that there's no shame. There was shame, but there was no shame. You see a person, you, you don't come and make the pastor less in front of his people. No, that's not what we are here for. And if you are assisting, you don't make your pastor look less shiny. Would you like that if it was you? So the guy, he sorted me out. Well, well and he has never invited me again. Why should he invite me to come and demote him in front of his congregation? Messy. So God did not make you the assistant or a branch pastor to come and reduce the person who is the leader in the eyes of the people that he's leading and make him look less glorious or make him look shabby or make him look inferior. We know that he's not the best or not perfect. Sometimes there are some good examples you shouldn't give them because it may make something look too shiny and then this one looks funny. Forgive. OK #24 A loyal assistant takes notes at meetings whilst his senior pastor is talking. Take notes. Amen. You see, some of you are too big to write by the writing of the. It takes humility. So it means the person is teaching you. And so if you are a good assistant person, you are sitting in front. You have to come and say this is what he preached last week. This is what he preached last year. He's repeating last year he called the message faith. This year he's calling it the life of Abraham. But it's just the name Abraham and the faith and the life of Abraham is the same, and #3 is this #4 is this #5 is this. Even if you know the people are looking at their pastor to see whether the assistants and the helpers to see whether they are flowing. If the assistant pastor himself is writing notes, how much more you, an ordinary congregation member, should you not also write notes? If even the assistant pastor who preaches sometimes is writing notes and is interested in what is going on, then how much more you are going to remember it shows that you must also sit up and write notes. What is being said? You don't just sit alone and you take your phone and you'll be sending texts as your pastor is preaching. You are sending texts or playing computer games on your phone. You are scoring. There goes and go. And when you're writing all right now, one day a pastor was preaching and he decided to walk through the communication they were writing also so that he read somebody's notebook, that he took the notebook. Do you know what the person was writing? The person was not writing notes. Things to do, things to do tomorrow you. That's what he was writing. I have to do this. I have to do It was not to do. List things to do, Mercy things to do. When I'm giving. You 7 steps to frugality. You are writing things to do. I don't sit in the front and be writing things to do To Do List. People think you are writing by writing To Do List for tomorrow. To buy tomatoes, I have to buy onions. I have to buy fish. I have to do this. I have to do that. Pay water bills. So write the notes. Messi, I'm at 25. Give gifts to your senior pastor as a good assistant. Amen. A gift means 1000 different things. A gift means that the giver loves you, he appreciates you, he respects you, and he honors you. That's what it means when somebody gives you. A gift means I like you. Means I believe in you. Means I appreciate you. So when you are an assistant and you that stamp pastor, you are ministering like that. So you are a senior pastor, you are telling him something. Oh, you don't understand. Yeah. Sometimes pastors become depressed. So I see a pastor 40 years birthday or whatever birthday you see that nobody in the congregation likes it the way that I knew that even my church members where they were not so interested in the world where my birthday on one day it was my birthday. I did not have even. 5. Cats, five birthday cats from a big church like that. Because now I was no longer their pastor and I was no longer preaching them. And I knew that now, yes, I've actually handed over because the time we come, I could get so many cats. Happy birthday, Pastor. You are a blessing to me, Pastor. God bless you. Thank you. They'll be writing letters now. They don't send me that. I go to Crusade. They'll be sending emails. Send us a bicycle. Send us books. Send out this. Send out that. Actually, the ministry is Waldo and I'll send you a Medicare. They're writing. We need books. We need bicycles. We need this. We need that. So give gifts. Those of you who don't give gifts. And I'm not talking about giving offerings. I'm talking about gifts. And when I say gifts, don't bring small writings to God. Be the glory. This house. This house is a Jesus, a Jesus house, the unseen guest. This is if I was to keep all those things, like my house would be a curious shop where I'm selling artifacts. The whole world will be covered with those things. One day. It was my birthday. Somebody sent me a present, a very rich family, when I opened the presenter shorts. Some. Light blue boxer shorts, silky light blue. I start grace camp. I had this color. This was the color of the boxer shorts. This is the color. Light blue. Boxer shorts. I look at the model, what am I going to do? With this boxer shorts. Am I supposed to wear it to go and play tennis or what? Suppose. Everybody in the. Church sends me one pair of boxer shorts, red 1, blue 1 white one. This was, oh, then I wear boxer shorts and come and preach and they come. There is no. Shame. Hey you send the. Pasta perfume. What is the name of it? Calvin What? Calvin Clinton. No, it's Calvin. Clinton. But you have sent Calvin Clinton. Coco Chantelle. Calvin. Clinton instead. Of Calvin. Klein. I've seen Calvin Clinton. Chinese Calvin Klein. Made in. China. Calvin Klein. That has become Calvin Clinton, Coco Chantelle. Instead of. Chanel. It is now Chantelle. So now I have your. Cabin Clinton on my table, somebody's Coco Chantelle Poochie instead of Gucci Poochie. All these ones are there. With my light blue. Boxer shorts and my cabin client, Kevin Clinton. So I put on my boxer shorts and I spray my Kevin Clinton and I'm moving in the house. Yeah, something, something is coming. With my. Sisters is the unseen guest. Also, I put it up there where my boss actually spread my Calvin Clinton have in the house. I say something has. Come. So you want to give a gift, you don't know what the person the best gift is then to give put some money in an envelope if he wants to buy Jesus is the unseen gift unseen guest or he wants to buy a carving. Clinton what? What supermarket do you have here? Supermarket Which? Sells food and everything. ShopRite Woolworths pick and pay, pick and pay perfume. Bless the man of God. Amen #26 A loyal assistant is protective of his senior pastor. He's prepared to defend against any problems arising out of his pastor's mistakes. And I'm sure a pastor is going to make a lot of mistakes in his life, but you need somebody who believes Amen and flows the next one. A good assistant is not ignorant of the fact that his pastor is human and capable of making mistakes. You see, the fact that you are a good assistant does not mean that you are ignorant or that you don't know that he's made a mistake or he's making a mistake or that he's human. It doesn't mean that you you see only the good you see. That. There are problems or there's a mistake or whatever, but you also are aware that he's a human being and you love the person, so you want to help the person to do well. You know, I mean, capitalize on what you can see. Every man of God has a right to be naked in his own tent. Yeah. You understand? Yeah. Are you there? Noah was naked in his tent and Ham came there to laugh at his father. You are. Laughing at your father's nakedness. Careful now. So it's not that you are ignorant. So if I see you through the eyes of perfection, you. Know that it's not. Perfect. You know that it's just like you, the way you look at yourself. You will not be the first to pick a stone. Because the first. When you point at somebody one finger, 4 fingers are pointing backwards at you. Point at somebody. And see how many Aussie 33 point to you? One points to the person. How many are pointing one to the person? Three and one. You are pointing to God. You are saying God the woman that thou give us me, the man that thou give us me. Shoot #28 A good assistant gives his pastor wise counsel, Amen. He does not give him lying praises of flatteries, Amen. Wow. The fact that you are a good. Assistant does not mean that you just flatter him. Oh, the man who when he puts his foot in the water, it turns into a rock. Hey, the sea. Dries up when he walks. And what again when his big fire comes from heaven. Let us welcome the man who when he puts in the sea, his leg in the sea, the sea dries up. Let us welcome the man who, when his big fire comes from heaven, the man who fetches water with a basket. Let us welcome our pastor, the man who fetches water with a basket. As the pastor is coming, he's feeling very powerful. I fetch water with a basket. How can you fetch water with a basket? He doesn't use a. Bucket to a basket. That the water. Passes through he there he fetches water with a basket. The fact that you. Are a good assistant does not mean that you flatter and tell lies to your pastor, Amen. Are you listening to me in Ghana when a chief is coming, that is, those are the praises that will be sought. Are you that you know how to stand as he's coming? There will be. Give me my microphone. A. Truthful. A. Truthful. That's a brain. Means what? We are tired of giving thanks. The tanks are so much that we get tired. Say them. Discipline What? Is that? Is what? Chief of Chiefs. Chief of Chiefs say their praises. I'm I'm receiving it. I'm receiving. It OK Croco, I take it? OK, croco means. Almighty. OK, Croco. A human being is walking cell croco. And then once again, I can't be. Kaby, when is this? Nobody say anything. Say. It again so. I receive it. I can't be Kaby. Achabi. Yeah, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Is what he does all things well. He does all things. He does all things well. Is there a song like that? Ajiman? Ajiman. Ajiman is what the Conquest nation. Ajiman. Ajiman, Ajiman. Ajima. Is. What you can give them to give birth to stones he gives birth to stones a pasta is can say he gives birth to. Stones give him the. Microphone. It's. What when you see him? He tremble. What did? He say where is the? Microphone The. Microphone. Is not working. Hello brother. Hold it like this, like. This I. Become a junk. I don't know nothing. Nana Fricity, it means from long time ago. Nana has been disposed, money, he has been disposed. He doesn't. He doesn't respect money. He doesn't respect. Money. He doesn't respect money. He Cranche St. Cranche or this cartoon brother or this cartoon brother means like like it doesn't. He doesn't respect money. Is nothing to him. That is why the. Chiefs in Ghana, they do nothing for Ghana, they receive praises. There are some chiefs, when they leave, they have to leave there and somebody has to hold their hand to lift it, like they are not allowed to leave their own hand like that. They leave their. Hand. They'll be holding your hand. Hold my hand. I'm a chief. I. Need somebody to hold this hand. I need somebody to hold their microphone. No. No go give their praises, Give their praises as a man. Deception. Sit down #29 so don't give praises. Perhaps that is why that many of the chiefs in Ghana do not do much. Because they are just praise. A German, a good assistant is. Content to be an assistant. Thou shalt not convert. Anything that is thy neighbors. You must not wish for me to die so that you become the Presiding Bishop. So we are. Waiting for Bishop to. Die so that we can take over fully. Why? Why do you want to be me? One day I was talking to Bishop Duncan Williams and he told me, he said a lot of people are trying to retire me, but I cannot be retired. Then he said when I go. And they come and sit in. My chair, the thing that was fighting me when I was in that chair, it will begin to fight them also. That's why people don't know that. When you sit in a particular chair, the thing that fights. Anybody who sits in that? Chair will begin to fight you because you are not the one in that chair. That's why when you are campaigning. As opposition to be a president, it is easy when you sit in the chair, the things that fight people who sit in that chair, they start to say, oh, you are the new one. The one who was here before it. Was not easy for him. Fasten your seat belt please. You are welcome. Then it starts. One day I was playing golf on the. Golf course and I saw a certain tree the. Tree looked. Like a. Leopard. So many spots like this so I. Thought it was a. Special leopard tree. So as I was approaching the tree. Like that I said, wow, what a special tree. It was right in the middle of the fairway. But when I passed the tree and I look back, all the spots were gone. So I said, hey, why does the tree have spots on this side but no spots on this side? You know why? Because everybody plays from here. So the tree. It's not that it's a bad. Tree but. Where it is positioned. People. Play the ball and it goes. Sharp so that all the branches have that spot on it all over, and when you go to the other side there's no spot. So the sufferings of that tree are not because it's a bad tree or it is inherently spotted, but it's position where it is located. So it means that any tree that comes to stay in that chair and that will suffer those golf balls. It means that anybody. Who goes to sit in a particular chair? You will experience certain things, not because you are bad, but because of the position that you are carrying. It has certain bullets. Try and be a head pasta. Then you will like this loyalty book very much. As I was reading something said to me, I see why people like the book as I was reading the points because it's a long time since I read all these points that they are powerful points, they are killer points, they kill oranges and they silence accuses wicked people and liars agents of destabilization in the church. Prevents the formation. Of side fellowships and side groups. It prevents the. Destruction of the church through formation of national groups and cultural groups and other tribalistic groups. It fights satanic memories in the church it opposes. And. Resists all destabilization that come from within the church. Yes, this 29 points. That I'm giving you. Yeah, it's powerful. Is it not powerful? Sing something for us. Everything he. Does he does it well? Everything he does. He does it well. Every move he makes, there's no mistakes. Everything he does, he does it well. He stood the sea with the rod and Moses hand. He does all things well. Where there used to be different waters, it became dry land. He does all things well. He handled up the valleys and he pushed up the hills. He sent the raging waters down. He met the winds. Obey his will in Stormy, where they make the ocean stand still. Everything he does, he does it well. Everything he does, he does it well. And every move he makes, there's no mistakes. Everything he does, he does it well. Look at how the Wasp came down. Now. The battle of Jericho. He does all things well. You know he turned Lot's weapon to a pillar of salt. God arrest his soul. He does all things well. He hallowed up the valleys and he pushed up the hills. He sent the raging waters down. He met the wind. Obey his wind in stormyweather, make the ocean stand still. He made the moon and starts to shine at night. He met the sun to give us fire. He got his hands and the Thunder rolled. He rose up from the. Grave to save ourselves. Oh God, a mighty God, please.

I gave you 29 characteristics of a loyal person, and I'm giving you 2920 characters of a disloyal disloyal #1 When things go wrong. When things go wrong, a disloyal person, unfaithful assistant will say I knew that it wouldn't work. I knew. It. Wouldn't. Work. Is it a nice thing? As you are moving with us, your mind is that I know it won't work. You are just waiting to see that. It will not work. I told you so. I knew you didn't listen. I. Knew it wouldn't work. That is why. When I'm sending somebody to the mission field, I want the person to have the desire to go himself. Because Charlie, you need to believe. I also need to believe that it will not that you are going. They say I should go. And I knew it wouldn't work. Ask Pastor Jake has. Come, some of you, if you have a negative mind and maybe after some time say, I knew it wouldn't work, you are Satan, you are Lucifer, and we shall war against you. We shall fight you one day. I sent pastor. Richard to London. He used to work in Accra, in the office. He used to do errands. Do you remember some of the errands you did? You bought locks? Yeah. For doors. Yeah. I sent him to London. Let him go. Let him start a church in London. Why not? We have not seen him start a church or do anything. He just was just in the office. He's just a brother. He's just a brother in the office. We used to call him Brother Mighty because he had a prayerful accent. And so I sent him. I said go to London. Would you like to go to London? He said yeah, his beloved was there. I said OK, go. I went to see his beloved. Also, I told him, would you like Brother Mighty to come? He said I don't mind. He said. What, you don't mind? I don't mind. Do you want him to come? You don't want him to come? I don't mind. I don't mind anything. I. Do you want to marry or don't mind I? Don't mind. So I decided not to. Listen to what I was hearing. I said, Brother Mike, you go. So he he went. I knew about six or seven people in London. I gathered all of. Them one of the people that I knew was Pastor Obi, when I tried to call him, he said when the if the church works, I will come. How many, how many are you now? How many are you now? That's the question is how many are you now? Stand up so that they will see who you are. You better be sorry. For what you said we have not forgotten. You shall preach our attention. We go to heaven. Is that you should. Grow a bit before you invite me, then I. Left Pastor. Richard there, every time I call I will ask how is the church? Is it working? So how many are you? We are 9, we are 6. We are 11. The highest was 14. After two years. We were still about. 14 do you see? But he said. My mind was not that. I knew it wouldn't work. Zebra. That mighty he. Was just used to just send him to do errands so I. Knew it wouldn't work. No, my mind was that it will work one day. I. Came here and grown. Fat, I said. Pastor. Richard. You. Are eating too many sausages, but he likes sausages too much. Sausages are bacon. Are you fasting? Instead of fasting for the church. To where he was eating sausages. You better be sorry, because we. Shall say it. But you see. When you believe that it will work. Sometimes just before. It works. You are about to pass that comment. I knew it wouldn't work today. He's a Bishop, Elect of the church. Yeah. I tell you, it was 2 years. I decided I won't ask again that question. How many people came to church? I decided I won't ask again. I remember. Deciding I will. Never ask that question again. So if I call him, I'll speak to him generally, but I will not ask. Because it was bringing to my. Discouragement. Some of you, your church. You start small, small like that. But I tell you, one day you will. Be surprised your church will. Be the biggest. The biggest in where? Where you are, it will be the biggest let. Me tell you something God has. Blessed us almost everywhere. We are where our church has been for some time. It has become the biggest. So I'm telling you. I believe in you. God believes in you. Yeah. And we are going to see state. We see Pastor Sawyer, I believe in you. Otherwise I wouldn't let you be out there. I believe in you. You are going to do it great things. Zambia will be the. Demons in Zambia will be very sad about you. They'll be very, very sad about that they allowed you to come before they realize you had rented a house. And all this if they had known, they would have prevented you from getting somewhere to stay. I. Knew it wouldn't work. Who is that? I knew it wouldn't work. No, you don't talk that way. It must not be your heart. I knew it wouldn't work. They said they're going. To start attracting. Swaziland, I knew it today well. They said they're going to. I knew it. They said they want to start a branching. What are the branches in this area? Karankua, I knew it today well. Karankua and where again? So Shangu, I knew it today well, and where? My melody. Silver Springs. Lotus Gardens. I knew it to the work. It's the voice of the devil. I knew it to. The work. I knew it. To the work I knew it. To the work One day I. Went to London. For a service, one service over 1000 people were there just some evening program and now when I go to thousand we have the members, thousands and churches all over. I cannot even whilst I'm having a program here, Reverend students having a program in London, I'm also having with in Leeds or Birmingham or any somewhere, any town, a huge cathedral full of people. And I remember 2 years. 14 people. After two years was a Richard eating sausages in London and past in the church there. 14 people. But I knew it to work. With. With or without the sausage and you 2 yours will work. Yours will work. Yours will also work. People. People are laughing at us, expecting us to fail, especially to work. I think it will not work but. God is saying it will work and when you are a loyal assistant, you have to be standing there expecting that it will work. And when it works. You say I knew it would work. I knew it was going to work. I knew. It was going to. Work. I knew it was going to work. But when you see that it's working. And you say I'm surprised that it's work you in particular I didn't think it to work. Oh so all along that you said you were thinking it to no work now you never knew one. One day I went somewhere and I met a certain pastor not. A lighthouse. Pastor, but a pastor. And he had a beautiful big new car from America. Hey. Special type of big car. When I say, he said, oh, come and. See my new car? He said. My son, he mentioned one of the towns in America. My son, he. He took me when I went there, he said. When he asked me, do you like I said why not? He said oh we are buying for you, we are sending to you. He said that boy. He said that boy has. Taught him something. Never rule out anyone. He said that guy was some. Very unlikely boy just struggling couldn't get university admission. He said, I held this hand, I prayed for him. He was able to enter university and the guy went after he finished one to one, he got a visa, then he went to America, then he went to school. This time he's well he said you should see the chair that he's doing that. So he I start, he said sit in the car. I. Start to hey botch that. When I when I finished. He said pray, pray over my new car for me. When I prayed over the car, then I went to my car and he was coming to car. I went to hide my God. No, come and look at my car. My car don't look at it at all. It looks. Like a bus. Compared to yours. There is no shame. You. You may scream you. May scream. But he said that boy has taught. Me something you should never rule out anybody. You'll be surprised how. And my mother-in-law, she's a teacher. We call her police teacher. She said you can never know how any of your students will turn out. She said never despise. You see the child. You don't know which one is the president, Which one is this? Which one is that? When you see the children, you will never know. You see them one by one like that. That's why I also look at all of you. And I don't know. It's like I don't know whether I, I have more hope than you, but I see big things. I don't know. Yeah, I feel I'm seeing great things. What do you think? That's how I feel, Andrew. Do you feel that way, too? One day, Reinhard Bunkie was telling a story. He said he had a dream. He said. I'm going to. Be an evangelist in Africa. He said my father. Was a pastor and he said so he went and told his father. He said daddy. God ask it in their vision. To be a pastor, an evangelist in Africa. He said, Africa and his father said to him. Who has taken my volume? Hey, let this be your very last, very last time. Three people should hold his shoulder. And say this is your last opportunity to hold him. OK now, he said his father said no, not you. My first son is going to take after me in the ministry, Reinhard Bonke. And he said in his school or in life they call him A0A0 is somebody who does not do well in school. And he said he did not do well in mathematics. So he was called a zero. That's the name that Bonky had 0. And he said his father said, not you, but my, my. Son is good and he said as. I'm speaking now that son is not even born again. And he does 0. Has become evangelist, he said, he said, you know why he said that? Because when you are a zero and Jesus stands by you, one he stands by you, you immediately become 10. Immediately you become 10 as soon as Jesus comes to add to the 01 and the zero is 10. You cannot tell. From somebody's face, who is going to do well, you can't tell from the face this one is going to be the one. It's not like that so. You. You have faith. And so it's a, it's a person with a disloyal mind who has this kind of, you know, I knew it wouldn't work number 2, when you come up with a suggestion or a new idea, a bad assistant has no comments. Either good or bad. When you're asking, what do you think you say, Oh, I don't have anything to say. No comment at this time. Fear quiet people. Did I tell? You a story about. A setting, quiet husband. Oh, I told you yesterday. His wife was complaining all the time. Useless husband. You don't do this. Useless husband. And then she went, and he quietly went to visit her all the time, did everything. When the time came, come back. No, no, no quiet. You'll be at the house. I'll be. Here. It's OK after today, as I'm talking after today. No, no, no. Fire people you should fear though. People who have no comment to make. Watch them carefully. Why don't you have any comments? Why don't you speak? What is in your heart? What are you thinking about? What are you not saying that you are thinking? Say something, brother. So that we can have an idea. Of the things that are in you, we are afraid. Of you. Because you are not speaking. That is why. The science of body language. I'm going to be preaching at a camp about body language. Biblic body language. From the Bible, that's why. Pastor, you have to learn. Body language. When somebody says somebody, all our body language, the person has the eyebrows. Watch the eyebrows. It's a sign they are all. Part of the body language. Pastor must be able to watch. Watch somebody's neck to know whether the person is telling a lie. Don't look at the face, look at the neck. There is something the neck that. You see, that will let you know whether the person is lying. It's a science catch lions from their neck. You want to know? There's a lecture after I bring your money and I'll tell you #3 ask your neighbor. Is it true that you never have anything to say? No comment. Is it true? Is that how you are #3A disloyal assistant is often thinking I would be a better head if I had the chance. Amen. Hey. Never had a chance to. Preach just once. Everybody will see the power in my life. That's when when I go that says, oh, your head past that travel, it doesn't have time for you to come and have a miracle service. Normally he doesn't do a miracle say, but the day that he travels and you come and say today is today. The anointings and. Lightnings of the spirit are going to touch everyone today by the functions and presences of Almighty Jehovah. It's like grace has appeared to the church because the pastor has travelled mouth like a frog. Once you know that it's not you, then the thing doesn't apply to you, isn't it? Why are you thinking you'll be a better? Bishop than me. Maybe the pastor preaches. And you say, oh. That's why I could one day, Benny. Hinn came to Ghana. And he was preaching on the. Crusade. As he was preaching, I listened to preach. I said this one, I can preach it better. I was sitting on stage and look at the thought that was in my mind. Yeah, you that you don't have bad thoughts, you see, as anybody. Do you have bad thoughts sometimes? There is no shame. You. May scream. We all have bad thoughts, but then the Spirit of God said to me, You may. Preach better than him. But that is not your pulpit. You are not, you have not been given to stand in front of a Graspa stadium which is about to break. The stadium was about to break down from the people. One of my passes was in the crowd. He said that as he was standing there, his legs lifted from the ground, from the crowd. He was no more walking. He was suspending it. And the crowd moves there. He moves tight. Yeah. We are lucky that nobody died. That night I was just moving on that really, that's moving. This is the kind of crap I came to see Benihin. Yeah, and. Here I am sitting there thinking that I can prefer he was preaching something John, something Jesus said very, very, I say the prophet said that says the Lord. But Jesus said very, very, I say he was saying some complex message, and I was saying that, oh, I have a simpler, simpler message for the people. Is either such a person is not a good assistant. As you are sitting on the stage a person is preaching, you are thinking of a better way. That you have. To break it down for the people and God has not given it to you or the pastor's wife is there, so I would have. Been a better. Pastors wife, if I have a chance I will give. Him a good. Show what do. You mean by good show by the? Way. What do you mean by good show? Ask. Your neighbor neighboring. Sister, what do you mean by you give him a good show? Tell your neighbor I don't understand what. You were saying I will give him a good show. I don't understand what you were saying. What do you mean the person is the wife and. She's doing what she can do. You are sitting there saying. If I. Was the wife like I was? For you Sid. Dressing. I would have given him a. Good show. Midnight Dance of the Fairies. What is the other dance store? Twilight. Twilight Zone now. There's a coconut. Coconut Dance. I would have given me the coconut dance. Twilight Moonlight. Dance of the Fairies. And then he would have seen. A real woman you. Are an evil woman in the. Church, let me tell you as you are sitting there thinking and look at the wife. She's so dull. She needs some somebody. Excite. He needs somebody exciting after such powerful preaching to massage his legs for him. If I. Only had had the opportunity look. At this old lady. There, she will not do it for him. Oh man. And you? The wife to it is. True, you will not do it. And the Rambus have. Seen behind that you will not do it. That way you go, you pour. Hot water or him, you'll be jumping #4 And his loyal assistant is not happy about the differences between himself and his head pasta. They're not happy that there are differences. Why? Why does he drive that car? Why does he live there? Why is he different from me? Why is he in business class or first class? I'm in Economy class. Why? Why, why Why is there a difference? There shouldn't be that difference. Why is he flying? I'm in a bus. Why did he fly whilst we? Came in a bus. We should all come in a bus. If we are coming. Bus. All of us should be in a bus. God is with all of us. Why should he be in a plane? We are in a bus. Oh, look at her. On television, she doesn't know how to dress at all. Look at. What she's wearing today. President's wife. Look at her. She's dressed. So she has much pink with green. Pink dressed with green shoes. Oh, that's what she's doing. She's this presa pasta. Look at her hair. She hasn't had time to do it, isn't it? The. Wig that she's wearing is too big that's made her head look like a Papa. Hi, Joe Boy. Instead of. Concentrating on your Bible, you. Are. Sitting there thinking. That you would be a better wife, better assistant, better head pastor. Better. At what somebody is doing instead of concentrating on your yourself. Look at how she's walking. In my. School we were taught. To walk as though there's something on your head you walk like versus a lady. Look at how she's throwing her legs. She's not a lady. Oh. Our pastor should have. Had a lady like me. If only pastor anyway. God is the. One who can. Scramble the eggs. One thing, one thing. God will scramble. Things. As. For me, I'm patient. I can't. Wait. I can't wait. Patiently look at a fair. Pasta like this, fair colored. He needs a suitably Fair Lady. To match with his. Colour. This is a fair colored after all, in the Bible. Bible says my beloved. Is fair. The fairest of. Them all, you see somebody's wife. And. He said, oh, this woman is not enjoying. At all. If. It was me. I can take her through. About two hours of sessions. If. God. Had given me the opportunity I. Would have been doing. Something good for her. She will have a certain feeling, this man. Cannot give her. That feelings. Look at what you are thinking. Somebody is moving with his wife. If it was me. Monday. A certain brother told me something. He said to me the reason why I want. To marry this lady is because I don't think she can get anybody. To take her through about. One hour of a certain type of sustained impression that I can give to her. I was listening to him. I was. Afraid, I said. Hey. I don't know. Any man? Who can do to her? I feel sorry for her. She doesn't marry me. That's. What He told me. Stay powers. I'm holding these powers. OK, OK, OK. OK, so. Don't be thinking. I would do better if I had a chance. There's something wrong with your mind #4 and #5 hey. And then we went back. He's. Very concerned about. His image rather than being concerned about raising the image of his head, pasture or his senior. Isn't it such people? When you rebuke them, even in church or in public, you say something. They will pretend as if they are not hearing what you are saying. They don't want people to feel that you, you are corrected or there is somebody who tells you or even can be annoyed with you. They'll just, they just move away. Yeah. They they want to look. Perfect. Why do you do that? OK, I'm coming. I'm coming. You're so concerned. One day. I was on stage. And there was a certain brother in the congregation, and I called him. I said come, come. Quickly. So he started running like this. Now when he shot, when he realized that the people he was trying, they stopped. So they're slow motion. You understand, first I did because he saw people were looking at him. He didn't want to be seen as somebody who, oh, plus I said I should come and. Come. He didn't want his. Image He's not in our chest today. Slow motion. I'm a big man. I'm a great guy. I'm a big man in my own house. I mean also important that where I came from in my house, nobody can shout on me. Messi aye shabba kabaya. Number. 6 A treacherous, disloyal assistant will eagerly look for opportunities to sit in his head pastor's chair. Aye. Maybe. This is where your pastor sits and then you also come and sit there. Even at the Kodesh, I have my chair. When I'm not there, nobody sits on my chair. It's a normal chair like all the other chairs. You don't have to come. And sit there. That's my chair. David had a donkey. And when he wanted to show. That Solomon was the king he gave his donkey. He said that let Solomon sit on my mule, on my donkey and ride through the street. Everybody will know that he is the king. There are some few things that are symbolic of who. You are and. When somebody takes those symbolic things, the person is taking up a certain symbolic position. Even though it's not real, it's symbolic. He should not do that and so. There are some symbolic things you should. Allow. That's where Pastor Jacob sits. Or Pastor Cliff yourself well, oh come and say you sit there. Even when you go to somebody's house, you should ask where does where do you sit? Where should I sit? No, no, go and sit in the house owner shell. And you start taking his remote. One day a certain brother went to a certain house. I know. He was feeling free. He went to. Sit in the chair. He took the remote. He would change the channel. CNNBBC This, this, this that he was feeling free at, did everything and so on and he went so one day. Some. Sisters. Brothers and. Sisters were talking and then. He heard them saying. That I this guy came there, he was holding the remote, changing the channels in the house and so on. Feeling. Free. Changing channels. Changing channels in my house. And when he had, he was surprised. And I say, yeah, you shouldn't be feeling free to be changing channels in somebody's house. The person may not even be happy and go to. Somebody's house just. Be cool like that before you text remote you are changing channels. So now they were now talking how he came to change channels. Since that there are few channels to change channels. I see your channels. I'll leave your channels for you unless I'm very sure of you before I'll change your channels. So there's certain symbolic. Thing one day. When we first started the church, I. Had an office. And I had a table. A desk black, and there was a chair behind. And I used to come and I'll meet with the pastors. I'll sit behind the desk. There's a table and then I'll meet. There were about four or five. How many? How many were we? You and who? Pastor Ishmael. And who else? You are not there, OK. You are not around. Yeah. So I come and meet about four or five. Of them and I will sit behind the table. Bring me a chest. I sit behind my table. Anyone this? One here. I sit behind my desk. And I meet the. Guys come. 3 pastors sit here. No bring your chest. We are coming for a meeting. 123 four I need 4 pastas so I used to talk to them and one day I didn't come early. So I went out. And then come and sit here so. When I came, I came to. The office sit in the chair When I came to the office, one of these guys has gone behind the desk to sit on my chair and he was now teaching them look at. Look at. What he's doing, he was teaching them. So when I came to the office, I. Said why? Let this be the last. Never sit on my chair. I'm not here. Never sit on my chair to conduct a meeting. Is that not what I said? Never, never, never. I see there are some. People there waiting to just quickly check your place or sit in a place that you have. Hey, that guy is not in the church. Now you see all. These symptoms. They are all real, real symptoms. And when those things are in. People when they you see the fullness of the manifesto. You see, one day I was talking to Bishop and he told me there are some people. They, they, they. Want they don't want anything that you have even you give them your house, your car even, he said. He told me if you give them your wife. They will not even be happy with it. They. Want to be you? That. Is all. They want to be you. They want to be you and be you and replace you. So be careful. Amen. Go away. OK. We are about to close. We've got to finish what we started, isn't it? Hey how many do we have? 6 used to spend my. Whole life trying to figure me out, blaming everybody with me. I used to love to listen to people talking about in that remedy. I just kept on trying but it does. It may not change. Seems like all the answers to what I want it to be never applied to me. It's when I came to Jesus tied. Up back and alive, I asked in just what to do, except we're starting over. No one looking inside. The answer is not in you this since the beginning of what I want to be. He's changing me completely every day. I can see she's eyes working in me. Something. Finish what you started. I like what I see. Finish what you started and you learn what I love. I love to do with you me. I love to do with you, me. So finish what you started. I like what I see. Finish what you started. Live on 'cause I love, I love to do what you need. Oh yes, I do. I know to do what you need. This is the beginning of what I want to be is changing me completely every day. I can see she's eyes working in me. So finish what you started, I like what I see. Finish what you started. I love. I love what you do with it. I love it. I love it, I love it. I love it, I love it what to do with me so finish what you started. I like what I see. Finish what you started it because I like I know what to do with me. I love it give a lot of. That support, I love it. What you do? When you leave. The I like. What I see? Think it lives. What is that? I love, I love, I love to do. What it? Is. I like what I. See. Do you like what you? See. OK, OK, OK. 5-5 more minutes, 10 minutes more. We close. We close. 20 minutes. Thirty. Minutes an hour. We got to finish what we started. A treacherous assistant will look for opportunity to sick sit in his head's chair #7A bad assistant sees all the faults and mistakes in his senior pastor's life. He rarely sees good things. Wow. How many know that we've all eaten up the tree of good and evil? So there's. Good things in me there's. Evil things in me, it's good and bad. In the West, person there is some good, and in the best person there is some evil. Now, if you take Hitler, if Hitler had died in 1939, he would have been hailed as the best leader ever to be born in this world because he took a country, Germany. It was like Zimbabwe. They used to buy a loaf of bread with a barrel of money like this. Yeah, billions and trillions of months. It was now. The paper was now more worth more than the money. It was valued less than the paper on which it was printed. That's how bad it was. And Hitler turned it round. Provided a job removed. Criminals from the street, madman, everything. He changed the whole place by 1939 he did everything. He was the best leader ever and. Then comes the. Evil that is in the person, so the. Good and the. Evil are there and that is how everybody is. So that's why sometimes you see a very bad person. But a person does some really good things and so it's a very good person. The person does some bad things because we have all eaten from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. We are descendants of Adam. It's the blood of Jesus that washes away our sins. Now when you are dealing with somebody, you can choose to see the negative aspects of the person. And you can focus on. The negative aspect he preaches too long, preaches too short he doesn't crack enough jokes, he has too many stories, he moves around when he's talking We, we, we don't know. We fix our chair this way or this way. He. Should choose where he's. Standing so that we can know which way to fix our chair. Sometimes he's here, sometimes. He's here sometimes. So what should we decide? Where you want to be? You can find something wrong with everything. And see. The negatives and the evil. But you can also choose to see. The good things. So yeah, we are able to. Stay preaching for five hours. Have you heard of something like that before? Sitting in five. Hours we are. Not asleep. You are alive. It is going on. You can come to church and listen to preaching for 10 hours, 12 hours in a day. It's also a fantastic thing you're able to leave your work and come and sit here and hear the word of a responsible person like you. There's something good about it. So you can either choose to see the good things or the negative things. And a bad assistant. His eye is on the negative. As I'll be preaching now, he'll be on the then. You should have closed by now. It should be this right now. Why is he going on? He's going on alone. Alone, Alone. Alone, alone, alone. He's talking about What are these though? Why is he talking about this sexual thing that he's saying there are children here. Why doesn't he do this? Why is he always ask for men? These are the things that they like. He's a man. This is your mind. Your mind is wrong. Because your. Thoughts are totally off. You are corrupted. You are. Lucifer in the church, I'm telling you this is how your. Mind can work. Easily. And that's what I'm saying that a good assistant, his mind is not on the obvious faults or. Shortcomings of the as I'm standing. I know I have problems, I have faults, I have mistakes. I have so many things I've known for a long time. When I started, there's no shame, no shame. When I started as a pastor, I tell you, it was difficult for me. I preached my notes. I. Had a small paper. And I put it in my Bible. And I thought it was like this size this I put it in my Bible with the notes. If I'm going to tell a story, the stories is it right now, as I'm preaching almost all the time, the stories can I have to even control them? Everything I'm. Telling you there's a. Story. I have a story not at all like the stories are true. The ones that are not true, you know that it is not true. There is no shame. If I'm, if I, if I have a vest, then I have a story. I've always believed in preaching with stories. How many remember the stories after the preaching is gone? You see that? You remember the stories. Yeah, I always preach with stories. I have stories, you see, so. I'll write it and. I'll be afraid and decided to criticize me that I'm not called when I preach. This is this is this. I was so afraid. My hand used to shake like this recently. I went to preach in Korea. And I was preaching and my mouth became dry, but I was talking to top level ministers from all over the world who were seen. I was preaching loyal and my mouth became dry and I realized I needed water and I remember 198887 just a long time since I preach that my mouth, the saliva is finished. And the tongue has formed. A department at the back and it's not moving. From dryness those days. When I preach, my mouth would be dry so that I'll be afraid. Wow, I used to get a running stomach. On Saturdays I never knew I did not learn it in medical school. That causes. Of running stomach. Anxiety Anxiety can make you have a running stomach. Stress. Diarrhea, that's what. It's called. Stress. Diarrhea. So Saturday I realized from about 3:00 I'll say I'm coming. Then I'll go. 4. O'clock I'm coming. I'm. Going 567 so I said I'm going to have diarrhea for the rest of my life every Saturday. You get it. So you can see the negative and people were just seeing the negative in my preaching. I'm a young preacher. Then Bishop Saki came to General after he would tell me we were so blessed. The way he tells me he was. So blessed. I thought he was lying. Honestly, the beginning I thought he was lying. How do you tell you are so blessed? People are not blessed. It's not good preaching because they always criticize me. My sister was so blessed. My wife too was. So blessed she was my beloved man, but you're so blessed. So this people, are they sure they are telling the truth? But I, I liked it even though I didn't believe it. I like, you know, sometimes they tell you I'm looking nice. You know it's not true, but you like to hear it. At least it's nice some. Somebody to say so you're looking young, you know you. Know you are looking old. You're looking sleepy while you put. On five kilos. Really. Oh yeah. So I enjoyed it begin to. See the good? Everybody has something. Good Pastor Jacob has something. Good Pastor Richard has some. Pastor. Ishmael has some. Pastor glucua Pastor dua pastor. Oh, pastor, hear me, everybody sitting here has something good. Focus on the good. A bad assistant is focusing on the bad. Amen. How many do you have OK about to close #8 A disloyal bad assistant notices the good attributes of external ministers but never speaks positively about his own pastor. So maybe you are enlightened that you. Only see the good things about Pastor Chris. Do you know Pastor Chris? Yeah. You only see the good things about. Pastor Chris, So Pastor Chris, his TV program is this. Pastor Chris is this. Pastor Chris is great, but your Bishop, you don't see anything good about him. And usually. When a person is that his heart or her heart is somewhere else. One day I went to visit a certain pastor who was the assistant of another certain pastor. And as we sat in his. House, myself and Bishop Saki. He spoke so nicely about another church by his own pastor. He never even mentioned his name. He said, no, this is a real leader that he mentioned his name, the man of God in our craft. He's a real leader. He's a great man of God. You know, his principles, his this, his this, and he was teaching us and talking to us. But his own pastor, not a word today as I speak right today, he works for that pastor that he was praising and that his chest that he was in, he left there shortly after that. So you'll notice that when somebody is saying positive, positive about this, but you're one that you are with, you can't see anything positive about it. It reveals something. And what? Anytime each point I have, I remember a particular person. Yeah, there is a particular person for each of these points. It's not an imagination. I've seen it. You are in Lighthouse. The person who I admire is Pastor. Pastor Chris is a very great I, I really, I like him. You know, he's, he's a faith teacher. I mean, you look up as you realize that he's not even a prosperity teacher. He's a he's. Bible. He touches on the Bible. Bible man is a long time as you. Christian from. A long time ago. And he's a very powerful. And good ministry. There's nothing wrong with it. So if you are there, you should you. Should If you are a Christ embassy, you shouldn't be always you see the good things in Lighthouse, but your own pastor, Mr. Chris, you can't. See anything? Good there. Why then your heart has moved to Lighthouse? And your body is about to follow. Oh, you don't understand what I'm saying. So I'm just, I'm just trying to explain to you that it's not that it's there's something wrong here or something good here, but it's like, well, depending on where you are, you must also see there's something good about your pasta. You can't all see yourself. Pastor Hamish is a good pastor. As for Pastor Obi, I have nothing to no comment to make about him. Mercy, OK. Stand up so that we can. Get ready to stop work. It's not stop work, it's get ready. OK, OK. And my 9S. This loyal associate. Always listen to tapes from outside ministers. Maybe you are in Lighthouse. You are always listening to Christ Embassy tapes. Or always listening to. Winess Chapel or Rima or whatever, but you don't listen to Lighthouse tapes. Not the correct person in Lighthouse. Go to that place where you feel there are very good wisdom and teachings and powerful messages. Or you don't understand what I'm saying. There's nothing wrong with that place. If you want to go there, go there. Don't. Be here your. Heart is Your legs are here, your heart is somewhere. Ask your neighbor where is your heart? Where is your heart? What did they say? Where are your legs and where are your heart? And your legs are the same place. #10. A disaffected, disloyal associate feels that things should be done in a different way. Amen. When we. Are preaching, so he should have brought in some more scriptures. He could have battered that point with a certain scripture from Ezekiel and another one from Leviticus. It seems he has not done much research in what he was doing, what he was saying. Perhaps he should have brought in this example and that example. The last time he preached he said it seems he has forgotten it, this and that. Always you think there's a better way in which it could be done. May the Lord heal you of your diseases.
