Speaker 1: We are reading the scripture today from the book of Revelation, chapter 4.
Speaker 1: Again, we are continuing to unveil the theme of 2024.
Speaker 1: These preliminary Wednesdays, we are just trying to unlock and fold the vision so that when you get it clear, you will be able to run with it.
Speaker 1: Amen.
Speaker 1: Again, we encourage you to be able to get the various materials.
Speaker 1: We have the theme vision book and, by the way, the theme vision book is about 180 pages.
Speaker 1: If you read 18 pages a day, you will be done in how many days?
Speaker 1: Hello, you need a calculator.
Speaker 1: Okay, 10 days.
Speaker 1: So there is no reason why you cannot read the theme vision book in a month and be done with it and then come back, read it again and begin to understand.
Speaker 1: So look at your neighbor and tell your neighbor accelerate.
Speaker 1: Amen, because that's the theme word, the watch word accelerate.
Speaker 1: God is doing things this year faster than you imagined.
Speaker 1: Your miracles are coming faster than you imagined.
Speaker 1: What was delayed was not denied.
Speaker 1: It is coming your way in a mighty way.
Speaker 1: So avail yourself to these materials so that you can be able to run with the vision.
Speaker 1: The Bible says write the vision down so that those who read it may run with it.
Speaker 1: So you need something to.
Speaker 1: Before you start running, you need to have read Thank you, jesus, so that you're not going one direction and you're supposed to go this other direction.
Speaker 1: So I'm just encouraging us to get these materials so that you can connect.
Speaker 1: But I want to read Revelation, chapter four, again reminding us the theme passage for the year is John, chapter 10, verse one to 24.
Speaker 1: The theme verse is Revelations 3, 7 to 8.
Speaker 1: So part of the things we'll be doing quite a bit is reading the book of Revelation, john and other passages that connect us to this amazing theme, the year of the Lord's uplifted open door.
Speaker 1: Look at your neighbor, your neighbor, you're being uplifted.
Speaker 1: I tell them you're being accelerated, amen.
Speaker 1: So look at these verses.
Speaker 1: I read just the two verses and then we'll pick it up as we continue.
Speaker 1: It says this after this, I looked and there before me was a door standing open in heaven.
Speaker 1: The voice I had fast heard speaking to me like a trumpet, said come up here and I will show you what must take place after this.
Speaker 1: Then the Bible says at once.
Speaker 1: Now, that's why we get the word accelerate, because God will do things at once.
Speaker 1: He will do things suddenly.
Speaker 1: He will make things happen immediately.
Speaker 1: So you better be positioned to receive your miracle, to receive your testimony in Jesus' name.
Speaker 1: But once I was in the spirit and there before me was a throne in heaven with someone sitting on it.
Speaker 1: Now, of course, if you read Father, it says and the one who sat there had the appearance of Jasper and Ruby.
Speaker 1: A rainbow that shone like an emerald circled the throne.
Speaker 1: Having the throne were 24 other thrones and seated on them were 24 elders.
Speaker 1: They were dressed in white and had crowns of gold on their heads.
Speaker 1: From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings and peels of thunder.
Speaker 1: In other words, this was a scenario that John on the island of Patmos had not experienced, so it blew his mind.
Speaker 1: I pray that God will reveal himself to you.
Speaker 1: Now let me say this again this is not the book of revelations.
Speaker 1: They're not revelations.
Speaker 1: There is no S on the revelation.
Speaker 1: The book of revelation, the revelation, is not about the dragons, the angels and all these other things.
Speaker 1: The revelation is communicated in the first verse, chapter one of revelation.
Speaker 1: So let me read that verse for you so that we can begin to get ourselves on the same page.
Speaker 1: In that first verse it says the.
Speaker 1: What Read it?
Speaker 1: The revelation.
Speaker 1: How many revelations?
Speaker 1: One, and it's a revelation not about things and angels, it's a revelation of, it's the revelation from Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1: Let me read this in the New King James version New King James this is an IV In the New King James.
Speaker 1: It says the revelation of Now.
Speaker 1: The other verses from.
Speaker 1: That means, if it is from then, jesus is revealing so many revelations.
Speaker 1: But this is the revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him to show his servants things which must shortly take place.
Speaker 1: And he sent, unsignified it, by his angel, to his servant, john, who bore witness to the word of God and to the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1: And so Jesus beginning to reveal himself to this man, like I said I think I said it last week who was very discouraged and thought that life was over and there was no other place to turn.
Speaker 1: And I want to say this for those who are sitting here, those watching us online the tide, even though the tide of God's favor went away, that tide is coming back.
Speaker 1: The tide is coming back in.
Speaker 1: If you've ever gone to Mombasa, you find the tide of the sea goes and it can go very far.
Speaker 1: It's dry, but then suddenly the tide begins to come back and the revelations is coming back and the revelation of Jesus.
Speaker 1: You need to have it so that when everything else is distracting you, the revelation of Jesus locates you.
Speaker 1: It becomes like the North Star, so that even when you are in a dark place and the sea you cannot see, at least you can see the North Star and you cannot get lost.
Speaker 1: And Jesus is your North Star, jesus is your revelation.
Speaker 1: And John had never seen such a kind of revelation and Jesus wanted to show John a different light of who he is and it changed his life Since that same revelation.
Speaker 1: Chapter one, verse 10, the Bible says this again Jesus is trying to open these guys eyes so that he can see.
Speaker 1: It says on the Lord's day, I was in the spirit.
Speaker 1: And, by the way, just for your sake, the Lord's day, the Lord's day is which day of the week?
Speaker 1: Hello, anytime in the Bible it says the Lord's day, which day of the week is that?
Speaker 1: Now, just say it.
Speaker 1: If it is wrong, I will tell you it is wrong.
Speaker 1: If it is right, I will tell you congrats.
Speaker 1: Okay, you see now, when you read the Bible sometimes you just need to pick up some of these things.
Speaker 1: Now, the Sabbath is which day Is when Saturday.
Speaker 1: It's Saturday.
Speaker 1: The Lord's day is which one Sunday.
Speaker 1: So let me help you so that we don't go around in circles the Lord's day is the first day of the week and the first day of the week is when Sunday.
Speaker 1: Now, of course, we have a problem, especially because of the calendar we have.
Speaker 1: It's called the Gregorian calendar and that calendar, basically in terms of the names, the names were given by the Greek gods.
Speaker 1: Are you getting me the Greek gods?
Speaker 1: So it was not the Hebrew calendar, where you understand.
Speaker 1: This is the seventh day, the first day, the Lord's day.
Speaker 1: This was the Greek calendar, so they named the days with the gods of the Greeks.
Speaker 1: So Sunday was named after the god of the sun Hello.
Speaker 1: So it is called Sunday.
Speaker 1: Are you catching me?
Speaker 1: It's not a Christian word, it is just Sunday, the god of the sun.
Speaker 1: They worship the sun and they gave the sun god a day, and that was Sunday.
Speaker 1: Now Monday.
Speaker 1: Now they had to give that name to the moon, so the moon day, which is Monday, thank you, jesus, was given to the moon, hello.
Speaker 1: Then we have Wednesday.
Speaker 1: I don't know where Wednesday came from, but at least Thursday was given to the god of thunder, thor, hello.
Speaker 1: Thursday, thor, hello.
Speaker 1: Then you have Friday, then Saturday, and then the months were also given, like January.
Speaker 1: These are the gods February, march, april, june, those gods.
Speaker 1: But let me tell you this God possesses and is named by anything else.
Speaker 1: The Bible says the earth is the Lord and the fullness thereof.
Speaker 1: Even when you're called Wajohi, it is okay, I'm telling you, because God is above even that name.
Speaker 1: Hallelujah, ah, yes, wajama, no matter how much meat you have eaten.
Speaker 1: Thank you, jesus.
Speaker 1: God is bigger than that name, because there's another name that covers all these names.
Speaker 1: So the first day of the week is the Lord's day.
Speaker 1: Why the Lord's day?
Speaker 1: Because it's the day Jesus rose from the day.
Speaker 1: It is resurrection day.
Speaker 1: Are you getting me?
Speaker 1: So next time somebody asks you what's the last day, it's the first day of the week when Jesus rose from the dead.
Speaker 1: So on the Lord's day, I was where In the spirit, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet.
Speaker 1: God is trying to reveal himself to John.
Speaker 1: We said right on a scroll what you see and send it to the seven churches to Ephesus, smana, pagemam, thyatira, sades, philadelphia and Laudicea.
Speaker 1: I turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me and when I turned, I saw seven golden lampstands.
Speaker 1: Now, in Hebrew, the seven golden lampstands, it's just one lampstand, but with seven sticks they call it the menorah, alright.
Speaker 1: And so he turned around to see the voice.
Speaker 1: Because he's a Hebrew, he's a Jew, so he turns around, he sees the menorah, turned around to see the voice that was speaking.
Speaker 1: And when I turned, I saw seven golden lampstands, a golden sash.
Speaker 1: Now he's looking at this Jesus.
Speaker 1: He knew before.
Speaker 1: The Bible says in the next verse a man.
Speaker 1: The lampstand was someone like the son of man, dressed in a robe, reaching down to his feet, with a golden sash around his chest.
Speaker 1: The hair on his head was white like wool and there's white as snow, and his eyes were like a blazing fire.
Speaker 1: Now let me ask you would you like to meet this kind of a person?
Speaker 1: My friend, you're going to die before you even anything.
Speaker 1: You say anything, but that is your Jesus.
Speaker 1: I'm saying that is your Jesus.
Speaker 1: He's mighty, he's awesome, he's amazing.
Speaker 1: He continues to.
Speaker 1: He says his feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters.
Speaker 1: In his right hand he held seven stars and coming out of his mouth was a sharp, double-edged sword.
Speaker 1: Now, it was not a real, particular sword.
Speaker 1: Hello.
Speaker 1: The Bible says the word of God is living and active, sharper than any double-edged sword.
Speaker 1: He's just saying that that sword is the word he was speaking.
Speaker 1: So when you read Revelation, you just fill up a lot of images and you have to begin to take the images and compare them so that you can have an understanding.
Speaker 1: But, in other words, john was having a completely new vision of who Jesus Christ is.
Speaker 1: And then later, jesus says keep going.
Speaker 1: His face was like the sun, shining in all its brilliance.
Speaker 1: And then Jesus spoke and he said I am the living one.
Speaker 1: I was dead and now, look, I am alive.
Speaker 1: For how long?
Speaker 1: Forever and ever.
Speaker 1: And I hold the keys of death and Hades right there for what you have seen, what is now and what will take place later.
Speaker 1: And then he just gives us some explanation.
Speaker 1: The mystery of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand and of the seven golden lamps found is this the seven stars are the angels of the seven churches and the seven lampstands are the seven churches, hallelujah.
Speaker 1: So he's just saying I'm among the churches and I hold their angels in my hand.
Speaker 1: And, by the way, who do you think is the angel of the church of Parkland's Baptist Church?
Speaker 1: Again, you're beginning to guess.
Speaker 1: If God needed to tell Parki his word, who would he tell first Exactly?
Speaker 1: Thank you for saying that, and I'm serious.
Speaker 1: God would not go to tell Pasa Saima, or tell the decons, or tell the trustees.
Speaker 1: He would tell me.
Speaker 1: And now I spend time listening to God.
Speaker 1: He gives me the vision and I write it down.
Speaker 1: So to the angel of the church of Parkland's Baptist Church.
Speaker 1: Thank you, jesus, because the word angel yes, yeah, you just need to get this.
Speaker 1: It's not a matter of a proud, a man angel.
Speaker 1: The word angel means a messenger.
Speaker 1: Imagine that if God makes me the angel of the church of Parkland's Baptist Church, then I have a lot of responsibility, because if I take you as tray, you're not the ones to be beaten up.
Speaker 1: Who will be beaten up?
Speaker 1: It's me, hello.
Speaker 1: And when you start saying things against me, you're actually saying things against the Jesus who made me an angel to this church.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to help you, hello.
Speaker 1: And so my position is very challenging because, number one, I have to really listen to God Before I tell you that that's what God said.
Speaker 1: Because if I say something that God did not say, then God sees me as a liar and God will sort me out.
Speaker 1: But I tell God that God is holding me in his hands.
Speaker 1: God is holding me in his hands, but then he's walking through this church.
Speaker 1: He's walking through this church and that is why, when he now writes to these seven churches, he keeps telling them I know, I know, you thought I didn't know.
Speaker 1: I know I know, I know, because among the seven churches, only one church got a hundred percent appraisal.
Speaker 1: All the other six churches had issues.
Speaker 1: If there is Ephesus, which is the first church had issues, and I want to tell you this churches have issues.
Speaker 1: We have issues.
Speaker 1: We are not perfect, but yet Jesus walks among us.
Speaker 1: He has not disowned us, he just walks among us.
Speaker 1: If you want to know how he spoke to the church of Ephesus, listen to what he said.
Speaker 1: This is what he says to Ephesus, chapter two, verse one.
Speaker 1: And he says this to the angel of the church in Ephesus right Now, remember that angel is the pastor of that church, hallelujah.
Speaker 1: And by the way, do you know who that pastor was?
Speaker 1: Can I tell you?
Speaker 1: Tell me, guess, even if it is wrong.
Speaker 1: You said Paul.
Speaker 1: So let me tell you it was not Paul.
Speaker 1: Paul was a missionary, he was an apostle.
Speaker 1: He was moving left and right.
Speaker 1: The pastor of that church of Ephesus was Timothy Hello.
Speaker 1: So it says to the angel of the church in Ephesus right, these are the words of him, who holds the seven stars in his right hand and walks among the seven golden lamestons.
Speaker 1: Then he starts by saying I know, I know your deeds, your hard work, your perseverance.
Speaker 1: I know that you cannot tolerate wicked people, that you have tested those who claim to be apostles but are not, and have found them false.
Speaker 1: These guys were doctrinally perfect.
Speaker 1: Things were just a poem.
Speaker 1: I say you have persevered and have endured hardship for my name.
Speaker 1: Hey, these guys are good.
Speaker 1: They have not grown weary.
Speaker 1: Then he says yet I hold this against you.
Speaker 1: You have forsaken the love you had at first.
Speaker 1: In other words, you used to love me so much you stopped loving me.
Speaker 1: Now you started getting very busy with the things of the church.
Speaker 1: You are hardworking, you are reading your Bible, you are having Bible studies, you are praying, but while you are doing all that, you have displaced me.
Speaker 1: You don't love me anymore.
Speaker 1: You love everything else but me, hello.
Speaker 1: So look at your neighbor.
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbor you better go back to your first love, especially in 2024, tell your neighbor that, because sometimes that can happen to us.
Speaker 1: We just get.
Speaker 1: We love the church.
Speaker 1: We love everything else.
Speaker 1: We love this church.
Speaker 1: We love going to the canteen eating, thank you Jesus.
Speaker 1: But one thing we have stopped doing is just loving the Jesus of the church.
Speaker 1: So don't love the church so much that you forget loving the Jesus of that church.
Speaker 1: Now, I wish I could now take time to take you to all the seven churches, but I won't.
Speaker 1: What I wanted to tell you is this this Jesus walks among us and in walking among us and you were telling John, write these churches because there is something I want to do for them.
Speaker 1: That is why in chapter two, after talking to all these churches, plus chapter three, the only church that he spoke nicely to thank you Jesus, is Philadelphia.
Speaker 1: Now, philadelphia, the church of Philadelphia, which means brotherly affection.
Speaker 1: He tells them this so let's go there so that to Nachambuaikitupolepole, bona sifiwe, I'm teaching you something.
Speaker 1: Are you learning something?
Speaker 1: Because I know you don't read the book of Revelation and you think it is about dragons and the devil.
Speaker 1: It's a revelation of Jesus.
Speaker 1: So very quickly, let's go there.
Speaker 1: Chapter three, verse seven.
Speaker 1: In chapter three, verse seven, he now tells them this this is now the sixth church.
Speaker 1: He says to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write these are the words of him, who is holy and true, who holds the key of David what he opens, no one can shut, and what he shuts, no one can open.
Speaker 1: Then he says I know, because he told all the churches I know you guys, I know you guys.
Speaker 1: I know you guys, you cannot help.
Speaker 1: I know you guys.
Speaker 1: And, by the way, these churches are not denominations.
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbor amen, amen.
Speaker 1: There's no method.
Speaker 1: Is church there for us to be able to say we are Median and we are methods?
Speaker 1: It's not a presbyterian church, it's not a Baptist church.
Speaker 1: This is the church of Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1: I know you did.
Speaker 1: See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut.
Speaker 1: I know that you have little strength, so God knows our weaknesses.
Speaker 1: Yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.
Speaker 1: Then he says I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan, those guys who are harassing you, who claim to be Jews, though they are not but are liars.
Speaker 1: I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you Since you have kept my command to endure patiently.
Speaker 1: I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth.
Speaker 1: I'm coming soon.
Speaker 1: Hold on to what you have so that no one will take your crown.
Speaker 1: The one who is victorious, I will make a pillar in the temple of my God.
Speaker 1: Never again will they leave it.
Speaker 1: I will give them permanent residence.
Speaker 1: Okay, thank you, jesus.
Speaker 1: Go back.
Speaker 1: I will write on them the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God.
Speaker 1: And I will also write on them my new name.
Speaker 1: By the way, I don't know that name To translate your siku.
Speaker 1: So go back, I will tell them my new name.
Speaker 1: Okay, new name.
Speaker 1: And then he says whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches Akamalizah, akamalizah, akamalizah, akamalizah, akamalizah, akamalizah, akamalizah, akamalizah, akamalizah, akamalizah, akamalizah, akamalizah.
Speaker 1: You know most people feel from accounts of this destination is very strange To talk to one another about someone who has lost all of their hearts is Octus the Nemea, disciples, president of Jerusalem.
Speaker 1: This and like this.
Speaker 1: Now, listen to me.
Speaker 1: Now, that's when he goes to chapter 4, verse 1, and he's saying John, this is what I want the church to do, this is what I want the church to be.
Speaker 1: He says in chapter 4, verse 1.
Speaker 1: After this, after writing to these churches all these messages, after this, thinking that everything was lost, I looked and there before me was a door standing open in heaven and the voice I had, fast heart, speaking to me like a trumpet, said come up here.
Speaker 1: In other words, god is saying you are flying too low, you're flying too low.
Speaker 1: Can you imagine a June budget Forget helicopters A June budget?
Speaker 1: That is flying, by the way, this time these big, big planes fly.
Speaker 1: Right now they fly number one.
Speaker 1: They fly very high.
Speaker 1: They can go to 40,000 feet and they are going at nearly 1,000 kilometers an hour.
Speaker 1: Now, if you're going at 1,000 kilometers an hour, you need to fly that high, because if you fly so low, remember Mount Kenya is at what height, what level?
Speaker 1: Anyway, mount Kilimanjaro is at 29,000 feet, so Mount Kenya is Kedogwa, pochini, 29,000 feet.
Speaker 1: These planes fly at 40,000 feet to go that fast.
Speaker 1: Now, if the plane is flying low, at around 30,000 feet, or let's take it, because if you want to see Mount Kilimanjaro, you just need to go to Arusha, you'll see it is below you.
Speaker 1: But imagine you're flying too low at, let's say, 20,000 feet, and you're going at a thousand kilometers an hour.
Speaker 1: The acceleration you're going to hit all the hills and mountains that are in front of you and God is saying because I don't want you to crash, come up here.
Speaker 1: He says Ephesus, you're flying too low, sardis, you're flying too low.
Speaker 1: Only Philadelphia is at least flying in a nice place.
Speaker 1: But all of you churches, all of you members of these churches, come up here.
Speaker 1: You are created to fly higher.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you this the eagle is one of the only birds that can fly so far high.
Speaker 1: Now something interesting, pastor Hiram.
Speaker 1: When eagles are flying, sometimes crows is in macro, sometimes the crows.
Speaker 1: When the eagle is flying, sometimes the crow comes and lands on its shoulder.
Speaker 1: So in a, in a sumbuah, so it is on its shoulder Now rather than the eagle.
Speaker 1: The eagle just begins to so higher and higher.
Speaker 1: And you know, the higher you go, the air becomes thinner and the crow begins to suffocate, as it is going in a float, in a Django shape.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you this if the devil is harassing you, just come up here.
Speaker 1: Come up here, don't struggle with the devil in these levels.
Speaker 1: Spread your wings.
Speaker 1: They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength.
Speaker 1: They shall mount up with wings like eagles.
Speaker 1: They shall run and not be weary.
Speaker 1: They shall walk and not faint.
Speaker 1: Just go higher and the devil will begin to suffocate.
Speaker 1: I start coughing.
Speaker 1: You're not struggling, you're flying higher.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you this what God is telling us today is this come up here.
Speaker 1: This is your season to experience your uplifted kingdom image.
Speaker 1: You need to see yourself in a different way Now.
Speaker 1: That's where my salmon is now going.
Speaker 1: Look at your neighbor.
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbor image.
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbor image is everything.
Speaker 1: Hallelujah, yeah, image is everything.
Speaker 1: I'm serious.
Speaker 1: Image is everything.
Speaker 1: Talk to some ladies when they do not have makeup.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you images, and it is important that makeup helps.
Speaker 1: Image is everything.
Speaker 1: And so when God is saying, come up, this is what he's saying.
Speaker 1: He's saying, when you come up and you see me in my glory, you will then see the reflection of yourself in that glory.
Speaker 1: Let me say that again, because John went up and he saw things you never seen.
Speaker 1: He's seeing lightning, thunder.
Speaker 1: He's seeing light, he's seeing things.
Speaker 1: But as he's looking at it he begins to see himself in that glory and God is saying this is who you are Now.
Speaker 1: The first time Isaiah saw himself in that glory, he really felt guilty and said war is me.
Speaker 1: I'm a man of unclean lips and I live among our people with unclean lips.
Speaker 1: And the Bible says God did not condemn him.
Speaker 1: The Bible says, immediately an angel went and took a tongue of fire, put it on his lips and he says I have cleansed you.
Speaker 1: God is not there to condemn you and kill you.
Speaker 1: God is there to give you life and to give you an abundance.
Speaker 1: And so when Paul, I said I was saying, oh, I'm bad news, god says I know that, but let's listen in me you are good news, in me you are good news and that is why we need another image.
Speaker 1: So, and that's what John needed, when he's now in that throne room, in that presence of glory, as he saw the glory of God, he saw himself in that glory.
Speaker 1: Let me give you this verse.
Speaker 1: Maybe you've never seen it or you have seen it and forgotten it.
Speaker 1: Second Corinthians, chapter 3.
Speaker 1: The Bible says this chapter 3, around verse 16, 16, 17, 18.
Speaker 1: The Bible says this first Corinthians, chapter 3, acts 16, acts 16, unless there's no 16.
Speaker 1: It says but whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
Speaker 1: Now, the Lord is the spirit, and where the spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
Speaker 1: And then he says and we all, with unveiled faces, contemplate the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his image with ever increasing glory which comes from the Lord, who is the spirit.
Speaker 1: Now let me read this in the New King James version that was NIV.
Speaker 1: New King James says this as we look at this glory, something happens to us.
Speaker 1: Okay, new King James, please, if I can get that one.
Speaker 1: Now, the Lord is the spirit, all right, okay, let me read 16.
Speaker 1: Nevertheless, when one turns to the Lord, the veil is what it's taken away.
Speaker 1: Now verse 17.
Speaker 1: Now the Lord is the spirit, and where the spirit of the Lord is, there is what there's liberty.
Speaker 1: Now the next verse says but we all tell your neighbor, we all tell your neighbor Hallelujah.
Speaker 1: But we all, with unveiled face, beholding, as in a mirror, the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image, from glory to glory, just as by the spirit of the Lord.
Speaker 1: Are you listening to me?
Speaker 1: We are being changed.
Speaker 1: You cannot see God in his glory and the glory doesn't change you.
Speaker 1: So how can I summarize my message?
Speaker 1: Let me give you three parts so that you may figure out how I did.
Speaker 1: Now let me give you the direction.
Speaker 1: Here we are the uplifted kingdom image.
Speaker 1: What is this image?
Speaker 1: What is this image and I'll just summarize it very quickly because you will pick it up another day.
Speaker 1: It says this three things the uplifted kingdom image is number one.
Speaker 1: It's God, it's a God created image, it's a God commissioned image and it's a God classified image.
Speaker 1: So let me repeat again it's a God created image, it's a God commissioned image and it's a God classified image.
Speaker 1: And this is who I want you to see yourself in that image.
Speaker 1: You are that person, hello.
Speaker 1: You know, some of us are shaped by our environment.
Speaker 1: Your environment just shapes you without you knowing it.
Speaker 1: Hello, when we, when we used to stay in this lands because I grew up in this lands, in Jericho, jericho just shaped us just by being in Jericho itself.
Speaker 1: Hello.
Speaker 1: When we left Iceland and came to the Westlands, kwa-wababi, hello.
Speaker 1: Just the environment shapes you, changes you just by being in a certain environment.
Speaker 1: If you're in a toxic environment, before you know it, you also become toxic, hello.
Speaker 1: That is why, in 2024, you will have to decide that there are some people you will not work with.
Speaker 1: No, oh, but you know, we have been friends all this time, my friend.
Speaker 1: But these guys, the things they are saying, are affecting you.
Speaker 1: They are too small, too limited to visions, are affecting your big vision.
Speaker 1: They have too small to dreams and you are rising to greater dreams.
Speaker 1: Past Ambrose is telling you to see beyond.
Speaker 1: He's telling you new season, new possibilities.
Speaker 1: But the people you hang out with, they keep telling you it has never happened and it will never happen.
Speaker 1: And because they are such good friends of yours, you stick with them.
Speaker 1: Hello, there are certain decisions you are just going to make.
Speaker 1: That's why God is saying you're flying too low.
Speaker 1: Come up here, hello.
Speaker 1: No, I'm not saying you go and say to your friend you know your past.
Speaker 1: Ambrose told me to tell you you are a toxic friend.
Speaker 1: When they come looking for me, they say what did you tell my friend?
Speaker 1: What did you say?
Speaker 1: That I'm toxic?
Speaker 1: Are you the one who said I'm toxic.
Speaker 1: I said, no, no, I was just preaching.
Speaker 1: Your environment will affect you.
Speaker 1: That's why one of the things I thank God for you is that you come to Paqui, because this environment will affect you.
Speaker 1: Ambrose will get under your skin, he will affect you.
Speaker 1: Hello, he'll keep telling you you're looking good, better than yesterday.
Speaker 1: One time we were counseling a couple of people and they wanted to get married.
Speaker 1: So I asked them how did you guys meet?
Speaker 1: I said, ah, past time.
Speaker 1: It was a very interesting time when we met.
Speaker 1: We were in church when you told us turn to your neighbor and tell your neighbor you're looking good, better than yesterday.
Speaker 1: So this guy tells this lady you're looking good, better than yesterday.
Speaker 1: And this lady is telling this guy you're looking good, better than yesterday.
Speaker 1: My friend, when they went outside the service they said can I get your number?
Speaker 1: The rest is history.
Speaker 1: They were getting married.
Speaker 1: So choose which environment you want to affect you, but for me it is not.
Speaker 1: The issue of pachylons For me is look into the face of Jesus.
Speaker 1: There's a song that we used to sing.
Speaker 1: It says turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full in His wonderful face, and the things of earth will grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace.
Speaker 1: Why are you looking?
Speaker 1: So this image issue is so important, and so, when you are in Jesus Christ, he gives you an image of yourself that you didn't know you have.
Speaker 1: God's glory will shift you.
Speaker 1: So three things the image that God wants you to know you are is the kingdom of image, and it is a God created image.
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbor it's a God created image.
Speaker 1: It's what we call the prototype.
Speaker 1: It's a prototype image that God put inside you.
Speaker 1: It's an uplifted prototype.
Speaker 1: It's an original.
Speaker 1: It's God's blueprint.
Speaker 1: It was never lost.
Speaker 1: Let me read this in Genesis 1.26 very quickly.
Speaker 1: I hope you're learning something it says.
Speaker 1: Then God said let us make mankind how In our image.
Speaker 1: By the way, who was this hour?
Speaker 1: Hour is who.
Speaker 1: Who was the hour?
Speaker 1: Who was God talking to?
Speaker 1: Okay, let me read the first verse, genesis 1.1.
Speaker 1: Let me read that first verse.
Speaker 1: In that first verse, we need Sunday school.
Speaker 1: This is a good place.
Speaker 1: Okay, it says this in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Speaker 1: Now that word God in Hebrew is the word Elohim.
Speaker 1: Elohim is plural, not singular.
Speaker 1: That is why it is using the word hour, or we, because God was talking to Elohim.
Speaker 1: Elohim in plural, it was God, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Speaker 1: So God is talking to Himself, the Father is talking to the Son and the Son is talking to the Holy Spirit and the Holy Spirit is talking to the Father and they are saying let us make man in our image.
Speaker 1: You're special, my friend.
Speaker 1: I'm saying you're special, you have a God created image.
Speaker 1: Now, the Bible, of course.
Speaker 1: That's when I start saying all the other things.
Speaker 1: If you read the next verse.
Speaker 1: The next verse says now, the earth was formless.
Speaker 1: Okay, the earth was formless and empty.
Speaker 1: Darkness over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering.
Speaker 1: So the Spirit of God was right there.
Speaker 1: So you have God, the Father, then you have the Spirit there.
Speaker 1: Then God says let there be light.
Speaker 1: And there was light.
Speaker 1: Now, if you want to find about that part, you read John, chapter one, verse four.
Speaker 1: So Badai, okay, john says in him was life, and that life was what the light of all mankind, and the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
Speaker 1: Anyway.
Speaker 1: So now in Genesis, verse 26,.
Speaker 1: Now God is saying let us make man, so go back there.
Speaker 1: Then God said let us make mankind in our image.
Speaker 1: In other words, god looked for all the animals and he said ah, ah, not this one.
Speaker 1: Not in a lion's image, not in a giraffe's image, not in a chimpanzee's image, not in a gorilla's image.
Speaker 1: Let us make man in our image.
Speaker 1: Do you know how special you are?
Speaker 1: God created everything fast, before he created you, because all he created was for you.
Speaker 1: That's why you needed to be created last, because you were fast.
Speaker 1: Somebody missed that.
Speaker 1: So, my friends, do not lower yourself to eating grass and wheat.
Speaker 1: That is a very low place.
Speaker 1: You are created for more than that.
Speaker 1: Somebody missed that.
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbor.
Speaker 1: You are created in God's image.
Speaker 1: So let us make mankind in our image and in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish of the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock, over over, over over these things, over over over.
Speaker 1: You are created to be at the top.
Speaker 1: The image of God takes you to the top, to rule, to have dominion.
Speaker 1: Look at the next verse, verse 27.
Speaker 1: So God created mankind in His own image, in the image of God.
Speaker 1: He created them, male and female.
Speaker 1: He created them, and then God did what God blessed what he had created.
Speaker 1: And God blessed them and said to them be fruitful and increase in number, fill the earth subdue it, rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.
Speaker 1: But in Genesis Adam did what Sins People say.
Speaker 1: We lost God's image.
Speaker 1: That image, we lost it, but we didn't lose it.
Speaker 1: That image was put in a safe for future engagement.
Speaker 1: That's safe is Christ.
Speaker 1: Thank you, jesus.
Speaker 1: And so the devil now was messing with us, but you could not touch the image of God.
Speaker 1: When Jesus showed up, we were born again.
Speaker 1: Inside him, the image was restored.
Speaker 1: Look at your neighbor, tell your neighbor you're special.
Speaker 1: You are created in the image of God.
Speaker 1: Image created, the image of God created.
Speaker 1: And image by the way, the word image is where we get the word imagination.
Speaker 1: So start imagining like God.
Speaker 1: May your thoughts be like his thoughts.
Speaker 1: May your ways be his ways.
Speaker 1: You are a creative.
Speaker 1: You are created by God to create.
Speaker 1: Let me say that again.
Speaker 1: You are created by God to create.
Speaker 1: So look at your neighbor, tell your neighbor you look like a creative.
Speaker 1: So create.
Speaker 1: It is inside you, it is your DNA.
Speaker 1: In Jesus name.
Speaker 1: Some of you are wondering Kuanie, here you talk happy.
Speaker 1: Let me show you another verse, because we are now finishing.
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbor, we are just about to be finished.
Speaker 1: Yes, it says this in Ephesians 2.10.
Speaker 1: I want to read Ephesians 2.10 first of all in the New King James, and then we'll read it in the other verse, then I'll tell you the other ones and then I can.
Speaker 1: Okay, here it is, for we are what I'm reading this one New King James, for we are his workmanship.
Speaker 1: Created where you see, that's where the image is.
Speaker 1: He created and cried Jesus for what?
Speaker 1: For good works.
Speaker 1: Those are creative works which God prepared beforehand that we should work in them.
Speaker 1: Now let me read this in the amplified version.
Speaker 1: You are amplified in a Tadim amplifier.
Speaker 1: So we are, we are we just connecting the amplifiers and these things going boom.
Speaker 1: Now, listen to this, for we are his workmanship, his own.
Speaker 1: The angels were not involved.
Speaker 1: His own master work.
Speaker 1: A work of what Art?
Speaker 1: Created where In Christ Jesus.
Speaker 1: Then what happened?
Speaker 1: Reborn from where Above, spiritually, what, and then what?
Speaker 1: And then I'm telling you for what?
Speaker 1: Which God did what, taking what?
Speaker 1: Who said them Amen, so that what would happen, living what kind of life, which he did what and did what I'm telling you.
Speaker 1: That's your portion, so tell your neighbors, get to know who you are.
Speaker 1: So, pashashira, to just summarize this, because you know I can go and do this the whole night Not only are we God created image, there's also God commissioned image.
Speaker 1: This image was also commissioned Second Corinthians 517.
Speaker 1: We are commissioned to proclaim something.
Speaker 1: Second Corinthians 517 says this very quickly Go back to New King James Version.
Speaker 1: Okay, leave the amplified, go to the New King James Version.
Speaker 1: It says, therefore, if anyone is where Is in Christ, he's what?
Speaker 1: Or the Bible says the new creation has come.
Speaker 1: That word new creation is a very interesting word, because that word new, the word new in Greek is the word Kainos, kainos.
Speaker 1: If whenever you put Kainos in front of another word, you're saying this thing that I'm talking to you about has never existed, it is not new, it is not taking in tumba ala funa, piga pasi ala funa huza, tell your neighbor you're not in tumba, hallelujah, you are completely new.
Speaker 1: So when you say Kainos creation, it is something that is created that has never existed, it is new.
Speaker 1: If anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come, that which did not exist just for you has come, then the old has what has gone.
Speaker 1: Guess, the new is here Now in the amplified version.
Speaker 1: I don't know how it says it, but let me just see that it says amplified please.
Speaker 1: Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, that is grafted in in joint to him by faith in him a savior, he is a new creature.
Speaker 1: Here it says reborn and what?
Speaker 1: Renewed by the Holy Spirit.
Speaker 1: The old things, the previous moral and spiritual condition have passed away.
Speaker 1: Behold, new things have come because spiritual awakening brings a new life.
Speaker 1: Now, why is this a new creation?
Speaker 1: Okay, go to the next verse, go back to New King James Version.
Speaker 1: Why new?
Speaker 1: Because God wants to proclaim something new to the world.
Speaker 1: So in verse 18, if I can go back there, new King James.
Speaker 1: Now, all these things are of God, who has reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ and has given us the ministry of what Reconciliation.
Speaker 1: So why were we made new?
Speaker 1: Not only just to be new people, but to come with a new message, a new word, a new proclamation that we can be reconciled back to God.
Speaker 1: That is that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
Speaker 1: Then it says in the next verse now then we are what?
Speaker 1: Look at yourself and tell your neighbor.
Speaker 1: Just tell your neighbor I'm an ambassador.
Speaker 1: Then tell them to refer to you as your excellency, because that's what ambassadors are referred to.
Speaker 1: So I'm talking to somebody here, your excellency ambassador, don't lower yourself, my friends.
Speaker 1: That devil sometimes can push you and say, oh, I'm just a farmer.
Speaker 1: No, you are an excellent farmer representing Jesus Christ in that locality to make things happen in Jesus name.
Speaker 1: Now then, we are ambassadors.
Speaker 1: He doesn't say we are like ambassadors, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us.
Speaker 1: We implore you, on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God.
Speaker 1: Then verse 21, which I like it, says this for he made him who knew no sin to be seen for us that we might become the righteousness of God in him.
Speaker 1: So not only are you a new creation, not only are you an ambassador, you are also the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.
Speaker 1: That's your image.
Speaker 1: I'm saying that is your image.
Speaker 1: Sometimes we forget how we look like.
Speaker 1: We begin to act like we are not.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you know the Nogesi masks, when people used to act using my Shakespeare and an Ine and an Ine, so they would mask.
Speaker 1: They would put a mask in front of them.
Speaker 1: That mask they call it.
Speaker 1: It's for acting.
Speaker 1: So they don't know who you're like and that's why we get the word hypocrisy.
Speaker 1: You're putting on a mask.
Speaker 1: You're being a hypocrite, you're not being yourself.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you this Don't let the devil make your hypocrite.
Speaker 1: Remove that mask.
Speaker 1: There is royalty behind that mask.
Speaker 1: Come on somebody.
Speaker 1: There's royalty behind that mask.
Speaker 1: You're a child of the king.
Speaker 1: Don't let the devil lie to you.
Speaker 1: You're special.
Speaker 1: And then, finally, I want to say this I will pick this another week, if you show up.
Speaker 1: It says this Number one God created image, then a God commissioned image, then God classified image.
Speaker 1: Now let me ask you the word classified.
Speaker 1: What does that mean?
Speaker 1: When you say this thing is classified, or when you say this information is classified, it is what it's specific.
Speaker 1: It's a secret, it's not for everybody's perusal.
Speaker 1: So if the government takes some documents and says this is classified information, nobody can look into it, and if you're found going through classified information, bad things might happen.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you this you are a classified image and God has put you together and removed you from all these people and classified you for himself.
Speaker 1: He's the one to read you.
Speaker 1: Nobody else should read you.
Speaker 1: Hello, classify, set apart.
Speaker 1: That's why the Bible says you are a chosen generation.
Speaker 1: Put aside.
Speaker 1: You're a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God.
Speaker 1: For what reason that you may proclaim the praises of God to the people?
Speaker 1: For once, you are not a people, but now you are the people of God.
Speaker 1: Once you have not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
Speaker 1: Not tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Now tell your neighbor, I'm classified by the government of heaven.
Speaker 1: I don't know if that helps you, and that is why Jesus had to come and tell John hey, you have mingled too much with the people down there.
Speaker 1: Come up here.
Speaker 1: You are a classified image, you are my brand and nobody can change you.
Speaker 1: In Jesus name, hallelujah.
Speaker 1: You're classified and so live like classified people, live like holy people, set apart for God.
Speaker 1: Don't be like Ephesus stopped their first love.
Speaker 1: What can I smart now, if I read for you those other churches, you'd really feel bad and tell yourself by the way, these churches were bad, but he's talking about us.
Speaker 1: God is saying, rather than be doing these things you're classified, you're set apart for me.
Speaker 1: That's why the Bible says Jesus chose 12 disciples that they may be with him.
Speaker 1: Classified, not so that you're secret people.
Speaker 1: There's no secret up at the corner to make you feature out of secret people, secret, secret, secret, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 1: We are just set apart so that God can use us to bring glory In the other.
Speaker 1: That's what the Bible says.
Speaker 1: You're the salt of the earth, you're the light of the world, so let your light shine before men that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father, who is in heaven.
Speaker 1: This image is important.
Speaker 1: Number one it is a God created image.
Speaker 1: Number two it is a God commissioned image.
Speaker 1: So don't be silent, please.
Speaker 1: People need to hear your testimony.
Speaker 1: People need to know what God has done for you so that they can see that new image and say I would like to be like that.
Speaker 1: Then, thirdly, your award Classified image.
Speaker 1: I like that one.
Speaker 1: I am not for the public, I'm classified.
Speaker 1: The documents and buzz was my Pigu Amuhuri, hello.
Speaker 1: They cannot be photocopied.
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbor there is no photocopy for you.
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbor you're an original From beginning to the end.
Speaker 1: Amen.
Speaker 1: Don't let the devil photocopy you.
Speaker 1: That's a wrong photocopy.
Speaker 1: Jesus name.
Speaker 1: You are an original.
Speaker 1: Live like one.
Speaker 1: I'm saying you are an original, live like one.
Speaker 1: Don't try to act like other people.
Speaker 1: Don't try to be somebody else.
Speaker 1: Even twins are not the same.
Speaker 1: Triplets are not the same.
Speaker 1: Just be the original.
Speaker 1: Don't try to be like celebs because you are one.
Speaker 1: Somebody missed that.
Speaker 1: You have all these celebs.
Speaker 1: I would just be like so, and so I would just start also walking like them.
Speaker 1: My friend, just walk like yourself, the way you usually walk.
Speaker 1: Just walk.
Speaker 1: You're valuable, you're special.
Speaker 1: You're special when you're trying to admire somebody else.
Speaker 1: Some people are actually admiring you, so why don't you take some time, look at yourself in the mirror and admire yourself?
Speaker 1: You are an original In Christ.
Speaker 1: Let me finish this.
Speaker 1: You're the person the Bible says, the inner man.
Speaker 1: There's an inner man inside you that is created by God.
Speaker 1: The inner you that is being the Bible says, though the outward being is being in Aisha, the inner one is being renewed day by day.
Speaker 1: You can see me with white hair, but let me tell you this inside hey, if you saw this, the Bible and inside there is created by God.
Speaker 1: What you see.
Speaker 1: He used to have an afro.
Speaker 1: Now, look at him.
Speaker 1: The outward is passing away.
Speaker 1: But go beyond the outside, inside him, come on, bless, bless.
Speaker 1: You know some of us and some people are sitting here.
Speaker 1: Before they got married, you know, they were slim, like today.
Speaker 1: After three children, my friends, they have increased in stature and in favor with God and man.
Speaker 1: But see beyond the outward inside them, the shining lights are good creation, brand new people.
Speaker 1: Look up on your feet.
Speaker 1: I hope you have been blessed.
Speaker 1: I pray that you have also learned something.
Speaker 1: In Jesus' name, by the way, these Wednesday meetings are really for teaching, and so we are learning together.
Speaker 1: So one more time, look at your neighbor.
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbor uplifted kingdom.
Speaker 1: Image is important and you are that image.
Speaker 1: You are uplifted by the kingdom to be like Jesus, the shining star.
Speaker 1: And because he's a shining star, you also are a shining star, and that is why Pastor Sambrose is meta, meta, the sparkle, shiny, shiny, shiny.
Speaker 1: Forget the shades.
Speaker 1: Let's give God a big hand.
Speaker 1: Amen, amen.
Speaker 1: God has called you forth, he has called you out, he has called you up.
Speaker 1: Stay up there, come up here.
Speaker 1: You are flying too low.
Speaker 1: Let's fly up up there, where God says you're seated with Christ in our heavenly places.
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that we are not living on this planet.
Speaker 1: We are living here on this planet, so continue to live your life here on this planet.
Speaker 1: One day you'll be in heaven.
Speaker 1: But remember this Think like somebody who has come from heaven.
Speaker 1: You have come with solutions, you have come with excellences.
Speaker 1: You have come with God's ideas.
Speaker 1: Live like that, because you're an eagle, you're not a chicken.
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbor you're not a chicken, you're an eagle.
Speaker 1: Fly in the sky.
Speaker 1: So, like an eagle, run and don't be weary, walk and don't faint.
Speaker 1: That is your portion in Jesus' name, amen, amen.
Speaker 1: So I told you about creating.
Speaker 1: So, right here in Parklands, we also like to create every time we meet, and one of the things we have created is tea, and so, after this, tell your neighbor there's a cup of tea, yes, so enjoy the fellowship, take that tea, and may the Lord bless you big time.
Speaker 1: So lift up your hands as I bless us in the name of Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1: Father, what a joy, not only for us who are here, but for those of us who are online, and so I want to speak to you, to you guys who are online, that you're very special.
Speaker 1: Thank you for connecting with us, thank you for taking time to be part of this service.
Speaker 1: May God richly, richly, richly bless you, and you and those of us who are here are rising up through that uplifted open door in 2024.
Speaker 1: And so, father, in the name that is above every name, I want to bless your people and I want to thank you that together they were able to come.
Speaker 1: Some of them have not reached home, they just left work, came by here and now they are heading home.
Speaker 1: Father, bring them safely back home.
Speaker 1: Thank you for those, whatever businesses they're in, whatever careers they're in, and maybe there's some among us, all God, who are saying this year is the year of opportunity.
Speaker 1: Lord, open their doors in the name of Jesus.
Speaker 1: Open their doors.
Speaker 1: We are flying up in the sky.
Speaker 1: Acceleration is taking place, lord.
Speaker 1: Accelerate us at the workplace, Accelerate us in our businesses.
Speaker 1: Accelerate us in our relationships.
Speaker 1: Accelerate us all, god, in our families.
Speaker 1: Accelerate us.
Speaker 1: You are calling us to fly much, much higher.
Speaker 1: Oh God, we are eagles in the sky and, father, thank you for the image that we carry, because it's the image of God in us.
Speaker 1: And so I bless your people tonight and, as they are released from this service, they are released to serve God.
Speaker 1: And so I decree and declare in the name of Jesus.
Speaker 1: May the Lord bless you.
Speaker 1: May the Lord make his face to shine upon you.
Speaker 1: May the Lord be gracious to you.
Speaker 1: May the Lord cause his countenance to be lifted in your life.
Speaker 1: The Lord's blessing rests upon you.
Speaker 1: When you sit down and when you rise up, you are blessed.
Speaker 1: You are blessed in the city.
Speaker 1: You are blessed in the countryside.
Speaker 1: You are blessed when you come in and when you go out.
Speaker 1: Your family is blessed.
Speaker 1: Your children are blessed, that everything that is connected to you is blessed.
Speaker 1: May the Lord's favours accompany you Every day of this week and every day of this month, all to the glory of God.
Speaker 1: And so receive this blessing tonight in the name of the Father and in the name of the Son and in the name of the Holy Spirit.
Speaker 1: And God's people say let's give God a big hand, amen, amen.
Speaker 1: Before we say the grace, let me remind you that on the 27th, what is happening?
Speaker 1: Anointing service.
Speaker 1: I want to say this please mark that in your calendar.
Speaker 1: It is a Saturday.
Speaker 1: We are starting around 2 o'clock, but if you can come about an hour earlier so that you can be able to find a place to sit, we are going to be anointing, but not only anointing.
Speaker 1: The Holy Spirit is going to come and anoint us for the year.
Speaker 1: If you don't have anointing oil, we don't sell anointing oil.
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbour amen.
Speaker 1: Go to Naivas, get a bottle of oil, bring it.
Speaker 1: During that day we are going to pray and consecrate it to the Lord and then we are going to self anoint ourselves.
Speaker 1: So we don't want people anointing one another.
Speaker 1: You'll anoint yourself, thank you Jesus, but after that the Holy Spirit himself will anoint you.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you the amazing things are going to happen here.
Speaker 1: Those are going to be open.
Speaker 1: The Bible says the anointing breaks the yoke, the things that the devil has been holding you captive last year.
Speaker 1: This year they are not going to be there.
Speaker 1: They are going to dissolve in the fire of the Holy Spirit.
Speaker 1: I want to tell you this you better come.
Speaker 1: I'm preparing myself, I'm praying, we are praying and fasting.
Speaker 1: We are just preparing ourselves.
Speaker 1: Even for me.
Speaker 1: That anointing will be for me, because the Holy Spirit is just not going to anoint everybody.
Speaker 1: Allah, he has to anoint me as an angel of the church of Parkland Baptist Church.
Speaker 1: I need that anointing, but as if you will.
Speaker 1: Yes, I need that anointing.
Speaker 1: So get ready, be preparing.
Speaker 1: The Bible says he who thirsts, let him come to me and drink Out of his innermost being will rush out, leaving waters.
Speaker 1: Something is going to happen, very real.
Speaker 1: It blows my mind.
Speaker 1: Every time we have an anointing service, god just suddenly comes in in a way he never came in.
Speaker 1: Something new, especially this year.
Speaker 1: Something new is going to happen to you, something new that has never existed is going to happen to you In Jesus name.
Speaker 1: So prepare, prepare to never get ready, amen.
Speaker 1: Of course, some of you are working on Saturday.
Speaker 1: That day, on Saturday, you may not just come, but let me tell you this Once this message is recorded there, nothing service will be recorded.
Speaker 1: Get to listen to it.
Speaker 1: Afterwards, the same anointing that will be in here will be on that screen Jesus name.
Speaker 1: Those of you who are in the diaspora, those of you who are online, do the same thing.
Speaker 1: Get the anointing oil.
Speaker 1: It can be olive oil, just don't use siagi.
Speaker 1: I'm saying just use oil that you can anoint yourself and feel free, but get an anointing, get that anointing.
Speaker 1: We'll be giving you instructions.
Speaker 1: I'll repeat them next Wednesday when you come, so that you're ready.
Speaker 1: Are we together?
Speaker 1: I just needed to bring that to your attention so that you're not taken by surprise.
Speaker 1: Oh, the anointing service came like a Peter.
Speaker 1: Last year some people thought the anointing service was on Sunday, so on Saturday they were at home.
Speaker 1: They came the next Sunday thinking it is the anointing service, naili Peter.
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbor Usipitwe, so mark that date.
Speaker 1: Amen.
Speaker 1: Now look at your neighbor.
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbor, surely goodness and mercy shall follow you all the days of your life and you shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever and ever, and there's nothing the devil can do about it.

Speaker 1: Amen, shalom.
Speaker 1: Have a good night.
Speaker 1: God bless you.
