Speaker 1: Praise the name of the Lord, jesus Christ.
Speaker 1: It says.
Speaker 1: Let the redeemed of the Lord say so.
Speaker 1: Clap your hands, everybody.
Speaker 1: Let's give Jesus all the praise and all the honor.
Speaker 1: Come on, in the youth sanctuary we shout louder than that.
Speaker 1: Come on, clap your hands and give Him all the praise.
Speaker 1: Hallelujah, amen, hallelujah, amen.
Speaker 1: We shall be Reading a few scriptures, but please allow me to do this.
Speaker 1: We don't do this because it's a protocol of the pulpit, but we do this with understanding, because we know that they that have gone before us have given us a platform To stand on their shoulders so that we can be able to hear this gospel of the King of Kings.
Speaker 1: We believe in honor.
Speaker 1: We believe that God uses men to reach out to men, and it is for this cause that we pose to honor the senior pastor of this church, reverend Ambrose Nyanga, together with the man of God, our associate pastor, reverend Simon Mwangi.
Speaker 1: Can we appreciate them?
Speaker 1: Thank you, sir.
Speaker 1: God bless you, amen.
Speaker 1: Reverend Simon Mwangi led me to Christ at the age of seven, and today I just want to say thank you and I wore this blue suit in honor of your ministry.
Speaker 1: God bless you, sir.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much again.
Speaker 1: I also want to appreciate my dear wife.
Speaker 1: Next month we shall be married five months.
Speaker 1: Can you imagine?
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 1: So trusting God for more grace as we go forward to the pastoral team, our deacons.
Speaker 1: Deacon Kaupa, it's good to see you.
Speaker 1: Deacon Werrago, god bless you, and I believe that today the Lord has prepared a word for us.
Speaker 1: The Holy Spirit last night kept insisting on this message, so we are going to have part one of this message in this service, part two in the second service.
Speaker 1: You can always go back online and connect with either of the services that you are not able to attend, but for this service, when we began to prepare what we would share with the church, I just had the Holy Spirit say go and tell the church and make this declaration.
Speaker 1: And this is our title for this message today, titled the Rewarder Is Coming, and today we are going to share four types of people that the Lord will be visiting in this season, and then we are going to wrap it up with the three rewards that the Lord is bringing to those four sets of people.
Speaker 1: In Jesus' name, can you lift up your hand just for one minute and tell the Lord?
Speaker 1: Lord, I'm ready to receive.
Speaker 1: Speak to me now.
Speaker 1: The rewarder is coming.
Speaker 1: This is a message for someone who's been saying Lord, where are you?
Speaker 1: Visit my family, visit my situation.
Speaker 1: We bring you good news in the sanctuary today that the rewarder is coming.
Speaker 1: I will never be the same.
Speaker 1: I've touched your grace.
Speaker 1: My life must change.
Speaker 1: I will never be the same.
Speaker 1: I've touched your grace.
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit, you are the master teacher.
Speaker 1: You are the spirit of revelation.
Speaker 1: We ask that you search for the deep things of God and reveal them to us.
Speaker 1: Even in this moment, father, I ask for the privilege to be hidden behind the curtains it's such a honor not to be seen and I ask that you traffic upon this atmosphere for these few minutes that we have, and lift up our hearts and our minds to you.
Speaker 1: Oh God, thank you, because none of us, no expectation shall be cut off today.
Speaker 1: Those that weep shall rejoice.
Speaker 1: Let the poor say I am rich, and let those who are brokenhearted receive their beautiful ashes today.
Speaker 1: Thank you for the mighty things you will do.
Speaker 1: I give you all the praise and I give you all the honor.
Speaker 1: We preach not by enticing words, but let this word be backed up by the demonstration of power and of the Holy Ghost.
Speaker 1: May they know that you came to visit us this morning.
Speaker 1: For this we pray, believing and trusting in Jesus' mighty name.
Speaker 1: Amen, clap your hands one more time and please be seated.
Speaker 1: The rewarder is coming.
Speaker 1: Are you ready for the word?
Speaker 1: Hebrews, chapter 11, verse 6.
Speaker 1: Hebrews 11, verse 6.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much, worship team.
Speaker 1: Thank you, band, you're playing so well.
Speaker 1: Hebrews 11, verse 6.
Speaker 1: Verse 6.
Speaker 1: He says and without faith, it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must, number one, believe that he exists, and once you go through that gate of believing, he gives you the assurance that he rewards those who honestly seek him.
Speaker 1: One more time, this is what the Bible says.
Speaker 1: And without faith, can we read together, please?
Speaker 1: And without faith, it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must understand that in this kingdom, there is a difference between gifts and rewards words.
Speaker 1: Jesus in the book of Matthew, chapter 7, verse 11, says that there are good gifts that the father gives to those who ask him.
Speaker 1: He says if, then, you are evil, you know how to give good gifts to your children.
Speaker 1: How much more will your father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him?
Speaker 1: Now, jesus talks about gifts in the book of Matthew, and then the writer of Hebrews.
Speaker 1: Other writers will say that Paul wrote the book.
Speaker 1: Others will say that those that were discipled by Paul wrote the book of Hebrews, but we know that this book was written for those who have ascertained themselves to push through in matters of believing.
Speaker 1: So what is the difference between gifts and rewards?
Speaker 1: The first encounter that you have with God is when he introduces himself to you as a father.
Speaker 1: Now, a father ascribes his gifts to his son or to his daughter, not by any form of, as it were, not because the son or the daughter has had anything that made the father to release that gift.
Speaker 1: It is by sonship and her being a daughter.
Speaker 1: The fact that we are connected by blood ensures that that father must stand in the gap and issue good gifts to the son or the daughter.
Speaker 1: The son does not need to do anything.
Speaker 1: The daughter does not need to do anything, as long as he's connected to fatherhood by virtue of birthing.
Speaker 1: My blood connection with the son and the daughter ensures that I must pass on the gifts of fatherhood to the son and the daughter.
Speaker 1: So when you begin your Christian life, god will begin to litter your life with gifts.
Speaker 1: Gifts are in.
Speaker 1: The welfare department of the kingdom House is a gift.
Speaker 1: School kingdom House is a gift.
Speaker 1: School fees through scholarship is a gift.
Speaker 1: When you stand before the Lord and say, father, may you supply for matters of life, that is what you call the gifts that enable your life.
Speaker 1: So, whether it is finances, whether it is matters of seeking for a job, and it gives you an opportunity to sit in an office to adjudicate and offer that leadership, that is a gift.
Speaker 1: But, brothers and sisters, when you continue to mature in the kingdom, you realize that you now move from the dimension where God deals with you, from a father to a son or a father to a daughter.
Speaker 1: You now graduate by maturity to the level now where God deals with you as a rewarder, because this kingdom is about coming up here.
Speaker 1: John saw it when he was taken up in the book of Revelation and he says that he saw the four living creatures, and the four living creatures showed him and opened him up to another dimension in God.
Speaker 1: He saw the face of a lion.
Speaker 1: The face of a lion, which is a representation of boldness and courage.
Speaker 1: He saw the face of a man, which is a representation of the dominion power.
Speaker 1: He saw the face of a calf, the expression of strength, and he saw the dimension of the ego, which is the opportunity to accelerate and make swiftness in the spirit, simply because he was able to come up.
Speaker 1: That dimension is the dimension of the rewarder, because now, god, you see, when he gives you his gifts, he will look at what is in his hands, but they that are rewarded.
Speaker 1: God searches deep within himself.
Speaker 1: He goes deeper into the heart and says you see, for Abraham to be called a friend of God, for Moses to be called a friend of God, is because the rewarder had now come and he covenanted with Abraham and he told him as long as your generation shall be caught up within this covenant, I shall always be on the move with them, ultimately to the land of milk and honey.
Speaker 1: The rewarder is coming.
Speaker 1: Today, some of us, god will graduate you from the welfare.
Speaker 1: It's useful, it is important, but if you want to be part of this revival, you must step into the next dimension of God, which is the great rewarder.
Speaker 1: He's looking for people who will have cars and houses but still leave them and say Lord, I'm seeking after you.
Speaker 1: He's looking for someone who can park his jet at JKIA and come to a vigil and pray overnight saying Lord, I'm still looking for you because there's something that I need to tap into you.
Speaker 1: John had everything.
Speaker 1: He was the beloved apostle.
Speaker 1: So why would he still seek after God?
Speaker 1: Because he knew that there is more.
Speaker 1: So he says come up here and I will show you what will happen.
Speaker 1: In the last days he wrote the book of Revelation from that island.
Speaker 1: And when he closes the book of Revelation he says if you add to this book, you will be cursed, but blessed is the one who reads this book.
Speaker 1: He says that when you read the book of Revelation, you will be blessed by just reading it.
Speaker 1: That's a reward.
Speaker 1: So when you read the book of Revelation, you'll be blessed by just reading it.
Speaker 1: That's a reward.
Speaker 1: So there is more that we are yet to see.
Speaker 1: You see, god can heal your physical body and still give you the rewards that come and join you into his purposes.
Speaker 1: Let's look at the four categories of people who God is seeking to release, his rewards, and then we'll close with these rewards that he's bringing.
Speaker 1: Blessed be the name of the Lord.
Speaker 1: The Lord told us to tell you today that the first category of people who he's entering into the sequence of opening himself as a great rewarder are those who have stayed fully in the place of faithfulness.
Speaker 1: Please write it down Faithful people, the key of faithfulness.
Speaker 1: 2 Chronicles 16, verse 9.
Speaker 1: And then we shall go to Proverbs 28, 20.
Speaker 1: 2 Chronicles 16, verse 9.
Speaker 1: For the eyes of the Lord rage throughout the earth.
Speaker 1: 2 Chronicles 16, verse 9.
Speaker 1: For the eyes of the Lord rage throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him.
Speaker 1: He says that the Lord's eyes are moving up and about and he's looking for those he can strengthen.
Speaker 1: Happened about and he's looking for those he can strengthen.
Speaker 1: The reason why he's looking for those that he can strengthen is because there is the weight of faithfulness.
Speaker 1: He calls it.
Speaker 1: They have committed themselves to me, they are fully committed to me.
Speaker 1: Fully commitment is what you call faithfulness.
Speaker 1: Proverbs 28, verse 20.
Speaker 1: Proverbs 28 and verse number 20.
Speaker 1: Faithfulness If you have been faithful, you must rejoice Because the Lord has seen it fit to visit you.
Speaker 1: A faithful person Will be what Richly blessed, but one eager to get rich Will not go unpunished.
Speaker 1: That what they are richly blessed does not talk about the physical, material things.
Speaker 1: It talks about the dimensions of the blessings of God.
Speaker 1: Maybe we should quickly do a crash course on what the blessing means when Jabez comes and begins to pray before the Lord.
Speaker 1: In 2 Chronicles 4, verse 9 and 10, he says and he cried out to the Lord and he said, oh, that you may indeed bless me.
Speaker 1: It is Paul, when he was teaching the church of Corinth, that he now began to extrapolate and open up this reality of what you call the blessing.
Speaker 1: He says that when you are blessed, it must capture these three things you are blessed in all things, you are blessed in all times and you're blessed for all needs.
Speaker 1: That's a blessing of the Lord.
Speaker 1: Part of it is material, but part of it is the heart of God.
Speaker 1: Have you not seen people who lost everything?
Speaker 1: Maybe they lost everything during the COVID times and the business went down and they cried out to the Lord from their altar place and it seems like there is a grace that came upon that business and even became more greater than it was before.
Speaker 1: That technology cannot be learned in school.
Speaker 1: That technology is built from the place where you have supplicated your life so many times, that when God sees your tears he must come and visit you.
Speaker 1: You don't go to business school to read that kind of vibe.
Speaker 1: You can graduate, you can pass with all flying colors and it is useful for dominion.
Speaker 1: But once you graduate, you know that I must lay my papers before the Lord, because there are many who left university and they didn't have access to the places where they can work.
Speaker 1: So when you graduate, once you leave the graduation square, you know that you have a second meeting place.
Speaker 1: Before you launch out, you go to your altar, lay your degree there and say Lord, I release grace.
Speaker 1: Oh, that you may indeed bless me, that your hand of grace may be upon me, enlarge my territory, deliver me from all evil so that I don't bring grief to my heart.
Speaker 1: And it says the Lord granted him his request.
Speaker 1: Carry your degree now and go to that interview.
Speaker 1: When you begin to speak, even you you'll be shocked because you know you're operating at a higher level of wisdom.
Speaker 1: Ceos listen when you're facing a decision that it is too hard to be made and investors are coming to interrogate your business.
Speaker 1: Before you go there, make sure that all things are planned, but before you step there, take off your priestly garment and step on your altar and say, father, I receive the grace, the wisdom of your spirit as I speak.
Speaker 1: Let grace manifest upon this place.
Speaker 1: If you're in parliament and you pray that way and someone is on the floor giving their details, the spirit of discernment will be upon you and you will know is he saying the truth or he's lying.
Speaker 1: You can now stand and say I'm like Esther who brings an end to the decree of Haman.
Speaker 1: The reward is coming.
Speaker 1: Faithfulness, if you have been faithful in the house of God, especially in moments where people did not see you, we bring you a message of hope that the rewarder is coming.
Speaker 1: It's more than motivation, I promise you.
Speaker 1: This word is a download of the spirit to you today, because there are people who have worked so faithfully that even the camera has no glare upon them, because they have decided to servefully that even the camera has no glare upon them, because they have decided to serve God, even without the regard to be seen For them.
Speaker 1: They don't do it so that people can recognize their effort.
Speaker 1: They know that the Lord planted them there and they know for sure that the more I keep doing this, the Lord shall remember me.
Speaker 1: If you are faithful in the house, the reward is coming.
Speaker 1: Number two.
Speaker 1: The Lord says he's coming to reward people of excellence, daniel 5.12.
Speaker 1: Daniel 5.12.
Speaker 1: He did this because Daniel, whom the king called Belteshazzar, was found to have a keen mind and knowledge and understanding, the ability to interpret dreams, explain riddles and solve difficult problems.
Speaker 1: Call for Daniel and he will tell you what the writing means One more time.
Speaker 1: Let's have that verse one more time.
Speaker 1: He had knowledge, he had a keen mind, he had understanding, he had ability to interpret dreams, to explain riddles and solve difficult problems.
Speaker 1: And because this is an altar of declaration, I declare that that shall be so for you.
Speaker 1: May you have the ability to solve difficult problems.
Speaker 1: I declare that that shall be so for you.
Speaker 1: May you have the ability to solve difficult problems.
Speaker 1: The grace that was upon Mark when he wrote the book of Mark is a grace to simplify complex matters.
Speaker 1: That is why Mark could write a synoptic account of Jesus in a very simplified matter, but it did not lose its power.
Speaker 1: What happens if a business leader has that kind of a reality when people bring in when, before you come in, they're struggling with complexities.
Speaker 1: But when you come into the boardroom and you begin to speak, you realize that the spirit of excellence to solve difficult problems is upon you and therefore he says call Daniel, because there is something that we must tap into him.
Speaker 1: You see, excellence is a language in this kingdom.
Speaker 1: You see, every kingdom has languages.
Speaker 1: We now understand why our senior pastor titled this month the uplifted kingdom intercession, because language is part of every kingdom.
Speaker 1: One of the ways we speak in this kingdom is through the language of excellence.
Speaker 1: You see, there's a way you can speak with words, but there's also a way you can also speak with experiences, even testifying.
Speaker 1: There are people who have to stand and say what the Lord is doing, but there are others who have gotten into the place, called experiential testimonies.
Speaker 1: You just need to observe their lives.
Speaker 1: They don't need to speak.
Speaker 1: There is one who come and say look at what the Lord has done and it is useful and it is needful.
Speaker 1: But there are others that you watch and you realize this lady was waiting to get a child and now she has twins In the fullness of time.
Speaker 1: God has taken her captivity.
Speaker 1: She doesn't need to speak.
Speaker 1: She just needs to showcase the twins before God's people.
Speaker 1: This is an experiential language of my testimony.
Speaker 1: It comes from the place of excellence.
Speaker 1: If you are going to take over these mountains of society.
Speaker 1: We must upgrade and enter into these dimensions of excellency.
Speaker 1: Lord, give me the ability to deal with complex issues, because that is where my value is.
Speaker 1: Excellence is powerful.
Speaker 1: Number three.
Speaker 1: Now, this third one is for many of us.
Speaker 1: The Lord says that he is coming to visit.
Speaker 1: Number three intercessors Daniel, chapter 6, verse 10.
Speaker 1: If you have been praying, this is your word today.
Speaker 1: Daniel, chapter 6, verse 10.
Speaker 1: Now, when Daniel learned that the decree had been published, what did he do?
Speaker 1: He went home to his upstairs room, where the windows opened toward Jerusalem, because Jerusalem was a covenant city.
Speaker 1: He got down on his knees and prayed, giving thanks to his God, just as he had done before.
Speaker 1: When he heard the decree, he went home.
Speaker 1: He received it, he had it, but he knew that there are some matters that cannot be dealt by just mere words.
Speaker 1: This is the same pattern that Esther used, because there was a decree that Haman, through the king, had issued for the destruction of the Jews and Reverend Simon.
Speaker 1: When you look at Esther, chapter 4, he says that when the decree was released, there was something that was pending to seal it.
Speaker 1: There was a sum of money that Haman could have now introduced to seal that decree, because money is a seal Once you release money at the point of exchange.
Speaker 1: When you go to a supermarket and you release your money, what you are now going to receive is a product that you bought, because money is a medium of exchange.
Speaker 1: And how they would seal their decrees is by a sum of money, because money is not just a piece of paper.
Speaker 1: It's a spirit that seals matters once they have been written.
Speaker 1: How come people will put some money in an envelope and go put it in an office somewhere and say make sure that this person does not get a job?
Speaker 1: Is it about the piece of money?
Speaker 1: No, it is a spirit that ensures that there is an exchange.
Speaker 1: There is one who will be brought in and there is one who will go out.
Speaker 1: There are people who lost their areas of influence because there was a sum of money that exchanged their destinies.
Speaker 1: So Esther knew that when money is included, we need to sort out these things at a high place.
Speaker 1: Nehemiah in Nehemiah, chapter 1, when he heard from Hananiah that Jerusalem was in ruins, he gathered his strength and he went to the place where he would pray and he said he supplicated himself in Nehemiah, chapter 1.
Speaker 1: And he prayed until he received a token of a vision.
Speaker 1: And he stood at the place of the king as a cupbearer.
Speaker 1: That day, his face was sunken and the king asked him what shall I do for you?
Speaker 1: And he said my people are in ruins.
Speaker 1: And the king said I send you so that you can rebuild the walls of Jerusalem.
Speaker 1: Those matters were dealt with in the place of prayer.
Speaker 1: Brothers and sisters, in the days that we are in, in this contested times, in these times when you don't know where the arrows are flying to and where they are coming from, you will need to stay at the place of prayer.
Speaker 1: And more than prayer, more than citation of things, it is the intercession place where we stay there until things begin to move.
Speaker 1: When I studied Eli the prophet, I realized that when he stood on the place of prayer to praise every single time, the Bible says that when Jesus was presented to Eli the prophet, simeon the prophet, when Jesus was presented to Simeon the prophet, the parents are there.
Speaker 1: They are standing presenting this child to Simeon.
Speaker 1: And the Bible says that when Simeon the prophet looked at Jesus and glanced upon his parents, he said Father, now I am ready to depart.
Speaker 1: When I read that text.
Speaker 1: The Holy Ghost told me that he was always on the temple and the reason why he could not die is because prayer was his insurance policy.
Speaker 1: And the Lord told me that there are men in this kingdom who stay until they announce their day of departure.
Speaker 1: So even if you conjure witchcraft and try to move them left to right, there is nothing that can shake them.
Speaker 1: How many arrows have been sent against your family?
Speaker 1: And every time you keep celebrating your birthday, year after year after year, and they wonder what happened.
Speaker 1: That this power is not working is because an intercessor.
Speaker 1: Oh, let me prophesy to somebody you shall not go down as you mount up in your place of prayer.
Speaker 1: May the grace that provides insurance for you Come upon you in Jesus name.
Speaker 1: So they say, oh, we thought he will not make it through, but now you've been seven years in that company.
Speaker 1: They don't know that you have an altar, you see, they see you dressed in a suit, but they don't know that, beyond the suit, beyond the English grammar that you speak so well, there is a covenant of answered prayer that you carry within your life and when you go to places where it seems like people don't seem to move and you can now go back to your village and they say, when you build anything here, it doesn't seem to go up, shut down, everything like Nehemiah and Esther Carry something that is more greater than what was planted before you came.
Speaker 1: And when they look at the village coming up back again, they will say that an intercessor is in view.
Speaker 1: Those are the kind of people that the Lord is seeking for.
Speaker 1: You know, when we started our prayer movement for these young people, god told us raise 2,000 intercessors and then go out and reach out to 5 million young people.
Speaker 1: And I never knew that you can face a lot of persecution because of your prayer life.
Speaker 1: Some of them used to come to our prayer meetings and they would even take photos, because you know, when we pray in the youth sanctuary, bro, there's a posture you take.
Speaker 1: It's called the traveling grace.
Speaker 1: There are prayers you don't pray when you're just sitting around, when you're saying, oh, father, bless me.
Speaker 1: You know I'm here, you know you're my G, I'm your G.
Speaker 1: You know how we do, bro Sa G.
Speaker 1: You do, bro saji, do the thing, man.
Speaker 1: You can't pray that way when you're faced with a situation.
Speaker 1: He says that when Zion traveled, so it's like you're on the bathing stool and you're praying.
Speaker 1: So we began to pray because we knew that revival must break out through the Genesis and the Millennials.
Speaker 1: And we gathered them to pray because we knew that there was a destiny that was ushered, that must be ushered through this generation.
Speaker 1: And some people came and said that the kind of prayers you're making have no regard for life.
Speaker 1: They will take photos and they will send them to us and say this is just meaningless energy.
Speaker 1: But when the reward comes I knew this before we had our wedding, because I knew that if we go that way, without power, what happened to those who came before us would also happen to us.
Speaker 1: My wife and I are the first people to ever get married in our families.
Speaker 1: It came by the place before then, before the white dress, before the place before then, before the white dress, before the ketara, before the chandeliers, before the round tables prayer.
Speaker 1: And sometimes you pray until you know that you have nothing to pray.
Speaker 1: Tears now become your prayer points and when those tears begin to fall down, you now you know that you have nothing to pray.
Speaker 1: Tears now become your prayer points and when those tears begin to fall down, you now see the similitude of God's hand coming to you when you're praying in your room.
Speaker 1: You will now know that you're not alone, because the Lord is stretching his hand, giving you power.
Speaker 1: This is a message for someone who has lost a loved one and you still have the memory of the one who has departed and you ask what shall it be?
Speaker 1: Maybe they passed on to glory two years ago?
Speaker 1: Maybe it was one year ago, maybe it is a decade ago.
Speaker 1: Maybe it is too fresh within your heart today and you're saying how, then, shall we move on?
Speaker 1: There is a gap that is filled by the spirit of intercession, where you stand up again and you now say we shall move forward.
Speaker 1: So he says Martha Mary, don't cry, because even though Lazarus is dead, I want you to know that I'm the resurrection and the life.
Speaker 1: That life comes to you at the place of intercession.
Speaker 1: When you're praying, you're actually exchanging your weakness to receive the strength of God.
Speaker 1: You can't do it if you don't have his strength.
Speaker 1: You can't do ministry in this city if you don't have power.
Speaker 1: You can't raise a business in this city Sequentially until it becomes an intergenerational business If it is not backed up by the spirit of intercession.
Speaker 1: Sometimes you need to call your sons on a particular day of the week and say, before we go into this month, we are going to take time to pray, have a prayer day for your family.
Speaker 1: There are days in the week where you should bring all your sons, even if they are going to sleep, let them sleep at the place of prayer.
Speaker 1: Tell them we are going to dedicate two days every single week, or two days in a month where we supplicate ourselves before God.
Speaker 1: Put the ordinance of Holy Communion.
Speaker 1: Now step out and see victory coming into your life.
Speaker 1: Intercessors, we must pray, and these are the people that God comes and rewards.
Speaker 1: The reward of intercessor is when God gives you charge and authority over his territory or his program.
Speaker 1: He is like the mother of Israel.
Speaker 1: I, deborah, arose and became a mother of Israel.
Speaker 1: What kind of word is that?
Speaker 1: That you stand and say I'm a mother in Nairobi?
Speaker 1: It means that you gave birth to the city from the place of prayer.
Speaker 1: That's how businesses are birthed.
Speaker 1: You see, if you have an idea that will unlock your next level of grace, before you now go to start it, dedicate some significant time to birth, acting in the spirit, and they will now wait to see it in the physical.
Speaker 1: When they saw it in the physical, they didn't know that it was built in the spirit.
Speaker 1: The rewarder is coming, the fourth one that the Lord is seeking to reward.
Speaker 1: The last one is private sacrifices.
Speaker 1: Private sacrifices.
Speaker 1: There are people who have sacrificed privately Matthew 6, verse 4.
Speaker 1: We shall get to a place where we shall pray.
Speaker 1: The Lord is going to visit you today, matthew 6, verse 4.
Speaker 1: Blessed be the name of the Lord Jesus, so that your giving may be in secret.
Speaker 1: Then your father, who sees what is done in secret, will do what.
Speaker 1: There is a giving, not just material giving, but your giving in the secret.
Speaker 1: There is a sacrifice of material giving.
Speaker 1: There is a sacrifice of prayer.
Speaker 1: There is a sacrifice of love, tokens of love in the body of Christ, and then there is a sacrifice of surrender, including your own body.
Speaker 1: There is a reward for righteous living and holy living.
Speaker 1: He says that you may be holy because I am holy, because the word of God has sanitized you from the inside out.
Speaker 1: The kind of words that you release.
Speaker 1: The kind of actions that you perform out in the private and in the public are centered upon the place of righteousness and holiness.
Speaker 1: That in itself is a sacrifice, the sacrifice of surrender, and all the sacrifices that you might have done, especially in the private places.
Speaker 1: The Lord is keeping an account of them.
Speaker 1: Please listen to what the Lord is saying to you, because as you continue to enrich your investment in those areas, you realize that the word that God is giving you today will give you the fuel to continue.
Speaker 1: There are people in this sanctuary who have paid school fees for young girls who did not have an opportunity.
Speaker 1: There are leaders here who have created an enabling environment of mentorship beyond your work hours, to ensure that the young people in your office become and enter into the full sequence of productivity.
Speaker 1: There are those who have come to the sanctuary to ensure that everything is taken care of before everyone else comes in.
Speaker 1: There are some private sacrifices that have been littered in every aspect of your life.
Speaker 1: Some of us went to preach the gospel of this kingdom, to release the power of salvation upon different places, with the realization that we are not going to get even anything out of it.
Speaker 1: That was a private sacrifice.
Speaker 1: You did it in the secret place.
Speaker 1: Today, ladies and gentlemen, I want you to keep to mind some of the private sacrifices that you have released for the sake of the body of Christ, for the sake of your family and for the sake of your family and for the sake of even this nation, littered all through, and that sacrifice has a voice that can speak back to the Lord.
Speaker 1: You see, when the nation of Israel began to pray, it says that God heard the cry of the nation of Israel, but he remembered the covenant he had with Abraham Isaac and Jacob.
Speaker 1: The covenant of Abraham Isaac and Jacob was covenants that were littered with sacrifices, and that covenant, which was malted by sacrifices, began to arise.
Speaker 1: He remembered it.
Speaker 1: He can hear the cry, but he can also remember your sacrifice.
Speaker 1: So that means, when you come before the Lord, there are two entities that are presented crying out to the Lord.
Speaker 1: There is what you are saying, the cry, the visible cry before the Lord, and then there is a backup of your sacrifice.
Speaker 1: Combine these two realities and there will be no end to your glory.
Speaker 1: So when you give out and you know, sometimes, ladies and gentlemen, we give the things that we too need.
Speaker 1: It's like going to condole with a loved one and a friend who has lost a loved one.
Speaker 1: But you also know that deep within you're also mourning by yourself, because you know that you, within you're also mourning by yourself, because you know that you have also gone through the same sequence of pain.
Speaker 1: But there's a reality where you feed others, when God is feeding you.
Speaker 1: We saw it when Jesus comes before the 5,000 men.
Speaker 1: Before he retreated to the other side, he left the shows and went to the other side because he was mourning the death of John the Baptist and he said when he heard that John the Baptist had died, he's the one that called him and ushered him into his ministry.
Speaker 1: And he left and he said let us go over to the other side.
Speaker 1: When he landed on the other side, people came in multitudes and after he had preached to them, he asked the disciples what shall we give them?
Speaker 1: And they said send them away.
Speaker 1: But he said we have five loaves and two fish.
Speaker 1: I have the grace to feed them all through.
Speaker 1: When he's still thinking about John the Baptist, how can you feed the masses?
Speaker 1: When you left to retreat because of pain that I left, my pain to step into your pain and give you comfort in your own pain.
Speaker 1: That cannot be recorded on cameras, it may not even appear on the church bulletin, but the Lord saw it.
Speaker 1: You told your mom I will hold your hand until you see Jesus.
Speaker 1: That conversation was never recorded in the view of the public and you have stayed consistent in the place of sacrifice.
Speaker 1: The rewarder is coming.
Speaker 1: The three gifts that are coming to those who will be rewarded from these four categories Is number one.
Speaker 1: The Lord told me that the first reward is access.
Speaker 1: The second reward is preservation.
Speaker 1: The third reward is advancement.
Speaker 1: If you have been faithful, if you are an intercessor, if you are carrying the spirit of excellence, if you have sacrifices that you have littered upon God's people, even to those who didn't deserve it, someone broke your heart and you still stood there to say I will still hold your hand.
Speaker 1: You cried deep within, but you're still trying to be joyous before them.
Speaker 1: He said that the rewards that are coming to you is access Access to God, access to systems, access to resources.
Speaker 1: It's systems, access to resources.
Speaker 1: It's a reward of the kingdom.
Speaker 1: He says there is preservation.
Speaker 1: Like Simeon the prophet, no conjurement of evil can befall your family, because a reward has come.
Speaker 1: And he said there is advancement.
Speaker 1: Now look at this sequence the first gate is access.
Speaker 1: He opens the gate.
Speaker 1: The first gate is access.
Speaker 1: He opens the gate.
Speaker 1: The open door is open for you.
Speaker 1: You find access.
Speaker 1: But when you find access, it is not enough, because you must be preserved at the place of access.
Speaker 1: When you find a job, that is access.
Speaker 1: But when you are preserved in that job, in that marriage, that is no longer access.
Speaker 1: That is preservation.
Speaker 1: And when he preserves you, he now says you've been preserved far too long, now it is time to advance.
Speaker 1: That is a full sequence.
Speaker 1: Oh, blessed be the name of the Lord Jesus.
Speaker 1: So even when colleagues say that he will not be here for too long, you can laugh and say my rewarder is coming.
Speaker 1: And because we started by saying that the rewarder is coming, we close this service by saying that the rewarder has come.
Speaker 1: Walk out of this sanctuary this morning backed up with full courage and joy that the language of faithfulness, the language of excellence, the language of intercession and the language of sacrifice has given me the full scope of the rewards of God.
Speaker 1: I shall find access into it.
Speaker 1: When I step into it, I know that I cannot be taken out.
Speaker 1: My day of departure is in God's hand.
Speaker 1: It is not amongst my enemies or even my colleagues.
Speaker 1: Nothing can eject me out.
Speaker 1: I am preserved at the place of my assignment and, father Lord, as you preserve me, may you find me faithful to be advanced.
Speaker 1: The reward is coming.
Speaker 1: Please close your books.
Speaker 1: Let's pray now.
Speaker 1: Just make a prayer wherever you are right now Hala, kosha, kata, sala, kosha.
Speaker 1: Just make a prayer wherever you are.
Speaker 1: Thank you, jesus.
Speaker 1: Ancient words ever true, changing me and changing you.
Speaker 1: We have come with open hearts.
Speaker 1: Oh, let the ancient words seem part.
Speaker 1: Ancient words ever true, changing me and changing you.
Speaker 1: We have come with open eyes.
Speaker 1: All at the end.
Speaker 1: Please make this prayer, father.
Speaker 1: Take me deeper into faithfulness.
Speaker 1: Give me the grace to pray.
Speaker 1: Show me the areas that you would like me to commit.
Speaker 1: Tell the Lord I enter myself by covenant into the place of access.
Speaker 1: I don't know what your access means, but it is available for you Preservation.
Speaker 1: He says I shall live and not die.
Speaker 1: Businesses can die, but they can also live.
Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
Speaker 1: Systems can die, but they can also live.
Speaker 1: When the rewarder shows up, he says I give you access, I give you all preservation that you need.
Speaker 1: Go with confidence and boldness and you shall continually begin to advance.
Speaker 1: As the believers are making that prayer, we are going to pray for the second group of people very quickly, in a minute or so.
Speaker 1: Believers just keep praying because this is also our time where we want to release a prayer for those who are not born again.
Speaker 1: You're here and you're saying, maxi, I desire to follow Jesus.
Speaker 1: Perhaps you are in the kingdom and life happened and you're saying I want to rededicate my life to Jesus or you are first time salvation.
Speaker 1: Whether it is to rededicate your life to the Lord or first time salvation, we are going to pray for you as the rest of the believers continue to pray, just soak into this atmosphere for a few minutes and just begin to connect to the Lord, and these are the prayers specifically for those who are not born again.
Speaker 1: We believe in salvation.
Speaker 1: We believe that there is a call for those who have not received this Jesus to find their way to the kingdom.
Speaker 1: So, first time salvation or rededicating your life to Jesus.
Speaker 1: You came to the sanctuary and you are looking for another place where you can find comfort.
Speaker 1: You walked away, but you're saying I am coming back like that son who desires to connect with the Lord.
Speaker 1: If that's your prayer, wherever you are, we'll ask you to lift up your hand.
Speaker 1: You want to receive Jesus as your personal savior or rededicate your life to the Lord?
Speaker 1: Please lift up your hand wherever you are.
Speaker 1: Blessed be the name of the Lord Jesus.
Speaker 1: I'll actually ask you to be bold this morning and please arise on your feet.
Speaker 1: If you're receiving Jesus, please stand up on your feet.
Speaker 1: Please stand up on your feet.
Speaker 1: You're receiving Jesus or rededicating your life.
Speaker 1: You've heard this young man speak to you by the Spirit of the Lord and you're saying I deserve those levels of grace, but you need them.
Speaker 1: Your access today is by salvation.
Speaker 1: If that's your prayer, please arise, or rededicating your life to Jesus very quickly.
