SPEAKER_00: I'll go straight to the scriptures.
SPEAKER_00: We are reading from Ezekiel chapter 37, verse 1 to 10, and then we shall divide this word into three parts.
SPEAKER_00: Ezekiel chapter 37, verse 1 to 10.
SPEAKER_00: It's a very familiar passage.
SPEAKER_00: The title of the message today is the prophetic tongue rewriting destiny.
SPEAKER_00: The prophetic tongue rewriting destiny.
SPEAKER_00: And in the text I'll read, we find God welcoming a man called Ezekiel into the school of prophecy.
SPEAKER_00: And we are in the times when the prophetic word is needed at home, at work, in cities, nations, and around the world.
SPEAKER_00: And therefore, follow with me.
SPEAKER_00: Ezekiel 37, verse 1.
SPEAKER_00: The word of the Lord was on me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the Lord and set me in the middle of a valley.
SPEAKER_00: It was full of bones.
SPEAKER_00: He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry.
SPEAKER_00: He asked me, Son of man, can these bones leave?
SPEAKER_00: And I think this question comes up to us, especially when we face adverse situations.
SPEAKER_00: Can things change?
SPEAKER_00: Can things really change?
SPEAKER_00: And he gave a very good answer.
SPEAKER_00: He said, Sovereign Lord, you alone know.
SPEAKER_00: And some of the situations are like that.
SPEAKER_00: Say, only you, God, understand this thing.
SPEAKER_00: Then he said to me, Prophesy to these bones and say to them, Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.
SPEAKER_00: This is what the sovereign Lord says to these bones.
SPEAKER_00: I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life.
SPEAKER_00: I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin.
SPEAKER_00: I will put breath in you and you will come to life.
SPEAKER_00: Then you will know that I am the Lord.
SPEAKER_00: Then in verse 7, he picks it up now from there.
SPEAKER_00: So I prophesied as I was commanded.
SPEAKER_00: And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone.
SPEAKER_00: I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them, and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them.
SPEAKER_00: Then he said to me, Prophesy to the breath, Prophesy, Son of Man, and said to it, This is what the sovereign Lord says, Come breath from the four winds, and breathe into this slain, that they may live.
SPEAKER_00: Let's read verse 10 together.
SPEAKER_00: So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them, they came to life and stood up on their feet, a vast army.
SPEAKER_00: And today I declare in this school of prophecy, you shall prophesy.
SPEAKER_00: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_00: Let me pray.
SPEAKER_00: Father in heaven, I want to thank you for the opportunity we have once again here to uh sit around your word and uh thank you for what you've prepared for us today.
SPEAKER_00: It's a food of life, Lord.
SPEAKER_00: As I share it out or dish it out, Lord, I pray that you use me and that we all receive it.
SPEAKER_00: Those who are in the sanctuary here, those who are following online from around the world, and those who are in the pavilion, all of us are one family, and we thank you.
SPEAKER_00: In Jesus' name we pray.
SPEAKER_00: Amen.
SPEAKER_00: May have our seats.
SPEAKER_00: The prophetic tongue rewriting destiny.
SPEAKER_00: That's a great passage we just read.
SPEAKER_00: Transformational leaders must pray that their tongue is trained afresh.
SPEAKER_00: Because to change a valley like a dry valley, this valley that's just been described here, you need a word.
SPEAKER_00: You need a word.
SPEAKER_00: To raise your organization to the next level, to bless your family, to you know, to bring change, you need a word.
SPEAKER_00: And transformational leaders need to have a prophetic tongue.
SPEAKER_00: A prophetic tongue is a tongue that takes God's word or takes destiny and brings it into the now.
SPEAKER_00: That is what prophecy is, and then declares it.
SPEAKER_00: You know, you're in a situation, you take God's word, you bring it into the now, that destiny, and then within that context, you actually proclaim it and declare it.
SPEAKER_00: And oftentimes the reality of the day looks impossible and looks like nothing can actually change.
SPEAKER_00: But I want to say that there is a word that can change somebody, there is a word that can bring salvation to a life, there is a word that can bring discipleship and growth and spiritual formation in the life of a person.
SPEAKER_00: There is a one word that can reverse and change the fortunes of an individual, of a family, and also of a nation as well as a city.
SPEAKER_00: And so today my prayer is this that God would raise transformational leaders here in Africa and everywhere, and indeed all of us are leaders who will carry a word that's prophetic.
SPEAKER_00: This word, Pastor Ambrose, again I sense is needed back in our homes as we talk to our children and we speak to them prophetically.
SPEAKER_00: We pick what the Lord has said concerning your child, and you speak it as if it is in the now.
SPEAKER_00: That is prophecy.
SPEAKER_00: And the rest of the life and journey of that individual or that family or city will be a journey toward that prophetic eventuality.
SPEAKER_00: And we find that in the Bible, in the Old Testament, there are so many things that were said and so many things written, but eventually they find their consummation in Jesus Christ.
SPEAKER_00: And let me say that none of God's word is idle, and none of God's word will fall down unaccomplished.
SPEAKER_00: And let's remind ourselves once again that God is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man that he should repent.
SPEAKER_00: Has he said, will he not do it?
SPEAKER_00: Has he spoken?
SPEAKER_00: Will he not fulfill it?
SPEAKER_00: And so God is raising today through this sermon transformational leaders who will walk out of this service, back to your platforms, back to your homes, back to your nations and cities, with a prophetic tongue, with a word that is in Caesar.
SPEAKER_00: And so Ezekiel 37 therefore becomes a school of prophecy.
SPEAKER_00: And the student is Ezekiel, reluctant, but eventually engaged, as you will see within the text.
SPEAKER_00: And my prayer is, like I said earlier, that all of us and all of us are prophets, that all of us, all of us will grow in the school of prophecy, and that our tongues shall carry prophecy.
SPEAKER_00: There are three things I want to share about this, the prophetic tongue rewriting destiny.
SPEAKER_00: Number one, the source of prophecy.
SPEAKER_00: Where does prophecy come from?
SPEAKER_00: I will read verse 1 to 6 of Ezekiel 37.
SPEAKER_00: Says the hand of the Lord was on me, and he brought me out of the spirit, out by the spirit of the Lord, and set me in the middle of a valley.
SPEAKER_00: It was full of bones.
SPEAKER_00: He led me to and fro among them, and so I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry.
SPEAKER_00: He asked me, Son of man, can these bones live?
SPEAKER_00: I said, Sovereign Lord, you alone know.
SPEAKER_00: Then he said to me, Prophesy.
SPEAKER_00: Now this is Ezekiel being encouraged by heaven, prophesy to these bones, say to them, Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.
SPEAKER_00: A tongue aligned to heaven.
SPEAKER_00: When we prophesy, we say what heaven is saying about a situation.
SPEAKER_00: When we prophesy, you simply take the word of God and speak it in the situation.
SPEAKER_00: Let me put it this way: at the heart of prophecy is the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: Right at the core of prophecy or the prophetic tongue or the prophetic word is the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: And so the material that prophecy feeds from is the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: In Joshua chapter 1, verse 8, God told Joshua something very, very important.
SPEAKER_00: This was a leader, and if he was going to be a transformational leader, he was he was going to wax prophetic, he's going to speak, uh, speak, speak destiny to so many people, and God told him, This is what I want with your life.
SPEAKER_00: He said, This book of the law, or keep this book of the law always on your lips, meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it, then you will be prosperous and be successful.
SPEAKER_00: The way to be a good prophet is to spend time in the word of God and allow the word of God to shift to the middle of your speech, to come right to the center of your speaking and even of your conversations.
SPEAKER_00: Now, when you are talking, then you are dishing out God's word.
SPEAKER_00: We are at a time where there are so many false prophets and we are having counterfeits.
SPEAKER_00: In 1 John chapter 4, verse verse 1.
SPEAKER_00: 1 John chapter 4, verse 1, it says, Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God.
SPEAKER_00: Because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
SPEAKER_00: Nairobi is not exempt, your neighborhoods are not exempt.
SPEAKER_00: There are so many false prophets who have come into the neighborhoods and they have formed prophetic kiosks or clinics.
SPEAKER_00: And there are people walking into those spaces and spaying a lot of money, a lot of money to go into a space to have somebody prophesy.
SPEAKER_00: But what you're dealing with in those clinics and in those kiosks, prophecy kiosks, are actually diviners.
SPEAKER_00: Those are diviners, they are fortune tellers, those are sorcerers.
SPEAKER_00: And many people have gone to seek their healing, their restoration.
SPEAKER_00: They have gone to seek their word to recalibrate their lives in the wrong places and in the wrong stations.
SPEAKER_00: But I thank God for Ezekiel 37 because it brings us back to order, especially at a time when people have gone all over and everywhere.
SPEAKER_00: They have been lied to, they have lost their money, and they come knocking in our offices as they try to sort things out again.
SPEAKER_00: But by then they are beaten and beaten, they have lost everything because they have gone to the wrong prophets, and out of there, they have got words that have no power, words that cannot change their valleys.
SPEAKER_00: You know, that's what they are carrying, but they have used everything in those particular spaces.
SPEAKER_00: But I I really pray that we would get back to the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: And if you go to a place where somebody says they are a prophet, test that word.
SPEAKER_00: Test it.
SPEAKER_00: It's okay to question, is it okay to test?
SPEAKER_00: In fact, find out whether what they are saying is aligned to the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: In Acts 17, verse 11.
SPEAKER_00: Now the Berea and Jews were more noble character than those in Thessalonica, for they received the message or the word with great eagerness.
SPEAKER_00: I like the second part.
SPEAKER_00: And they examined the scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true.
SPEAKER_00: It's okay when I preach the way I'm preaching for someone to go back home and listen to the message again online and check what Pastor Simon was preaching.
SPEAKER_00: Is it aligned to the scriptures?
SPEAKER_00: Hallelujah! It is okay.
SPEAKER_00: And Pastor Ambrose, in this church, we are open and we invite that kind of challenge.
SPEAKER_00: This pulpit here, you check from the scriptures whether it is really aligned.
SPEAKER_00: I said in the first point that the source of prophecy is with the word of God, at a tongue aligned to heaven.
SPEAKER_00: You know, a tongue aligned to heaven.
SPEAKER_00: And uh, this is the tongue that speaks forth the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: So you find uh God serving Jerem Ezekiel, the word.
SPEAKER_00: Actually, he's discipled, he's trained, he's coached in the kindergarten of prophecy in verse 4.
SPEAKER_00: Then he said to me, Prophesy to these bones and say to them, Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.
SPEAKER_00: This is what the Lord, sovereign Lord, says to these bones, and I will make breath enter you, you will come to life, I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin.
SPEAKER_00: I'll put breath in you and you will come to life.
SPEAKER_00: Then you will know that I am the Lord.
SPEAKER_00: This is a school of prophecy.
SPEAKER_00: And uh, what Ezekiel is going to release out there is not his opinion, it is not a dream he had last night.
SPEAKER_00: And then he comes and says, That says the Lord, because I had a dream, therefore, thus says the Lord, and then begins to impose dreams on people.
SPEAKER_00: No, no, no, no.
SPEAKER_00: What Ezekiel is going to present out there as a prophet is from heaven, it is the word of God, it is clear, it is very, very specific, and he's coached alongside that word because that's what he's going to repeat.
SPEAKER_00: I want to say that we are messengers, and even the gospel, when we preach it, we take God's word as it is.
SPEAKER_00: And then we go to communities and we say, I want you to know that Jesus, God loves us, that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
SPEAKER_00: We just take the scriptures, you take it among the people, and when you make the altar call, after you have released that word, you are surprised.
SPEAKER_00: Somebody walks forward saying, I want to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior, I want to be delivered, I want to be healed.
SPEAKER_00: You're just taking the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: And therefore, let me say transformation comes from the word.
SPEAKER_00: Hebrews 4.12 says the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the vision of soul and spirit, joint and marrow, and it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
SPEAKER_00: The power is in the word, the prophetic power is inside the word.
SPEAKER_00: The impetus, you know, is inside the word.
SPEAKER_00: It is not in the person, it is not in Ezekiel, no, it is not in his opinions or his dreams or his feelings.
SPEAKER_00: No, no, no, no, no, no.
SPEAKER_00: The strength is inside God's word, and therefore, the word you need for your healing and restoration and for alignment is really this one, which is actually the Bible.
SPEAKER_00: And these are 66 books here, from Genesis up to Revelation, and inside here is the fullness and totality and complete completeness of prophecy.
SPEAKER_00: So prophecy emanates from God, and it is here in the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: I know we also have uh fortune tellers, they they tell us how it's gonna look tomorrow, and there are those who read the palm readers, and they say, Yeah, look at your palm.
SPEAKER_00: I don't know how it looks, like, but uh, there are some that are parallel, some lines are parallel like this, and somebody tells you when your lines are parallel, you'll go very far in life.
SPEAKER_00: But if your lines are not parallel and they are converging, it means your life will truncate.
SPEAKER_00: Can you imagine now somebody telling you if your lines are colliding, it means your life will truncate.
SPEAKER_00: You will just be falling short, falling short, falling short.
SPEAKER_00: Palm readers.
SPEAKER_00: Now, if you go to palm readers, I call you back to the word of God in Jesus' name.
SPEAKER_00: Because your destiny is inside the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: Ah, there are those, of course, who are fortune tellers and they won't tell you how tomorrow looks like.
SPEAKER_00: There are those who release stars.
SPEAKER_00: I was born in November.
SPEAKER_00: Uh for some reason you let me not ask you.
SPEAKER_00: I was going to ask you what is your star?
SPEAKER_00: We don't believe in this thing.
SPEAKER_00: And they are there, newspapers.
SPEAKER_00: I decide to read them.
SPEAKER_00: And sometimes you read your star, and the next day you don't live through the door.
SPEAKER_00: Because the reading there says, Today is not your lucky day.
SPEAKER_00: Don't try to go out, don't venture out, don't try a business deal, don't try anything.
SPEAKER_00: It is not your lucky day.
SPEAKER_00: And you find people submitting their destiny and their lives to star gazers and all these kinds of people.
SPEAKER_00: But I want to thank God because I am raising prophets today by this sermon.
SPEAKER_00: And this is the school of prophecy right now, in the name of Jesus Christ.
SPEAKER_00: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_00: God recruits Ezekiel.
SPEAKER_00: He's in the school of prophecy and he gives him the material.
SPEAKER_00: He gives him the material that he's going to use as he goes out there to begin to make to bring change.
SPEAKER_00: And every transformational leader must have a word that raises people from one level to a higher level.
SPEAKER_00: Any transformational leader needs to have it.
SPEAKER_00: And that is why we need to go back to God's word.
SPEAKER_00: And so the source really of prophecy is scripture.
SPEAKER_00: Test every other prophecy again is scripture.
SPEAKER_00: But secondly, the power of prophecy.
SPEAKER_00: The power of prophecy, a tongue aligned to resurrect.
SPEAKER_00: In other words, this is a word, a tongue that speaks life.
SPEAKER_00: In verse 7 of the text, it says the following.
SPEAKER_00: So he began to prophesy.
SPEAKER_00: He began to declare what the Lord heaven had already declared.
SPEAKER_00: As he did it, and there is alignment in terms of the word with what God had said.
SPEAKER_00: He must have been surprised because this must have been the first time he sees something like this.
SPEAKER_00: In the valley of bones scattered all over, and they are very dry.
SPEAKER_00: Then I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them, and skin covered them.
SPEAKER_00: But there was no breath in them.
SPEAKER_00: Then he said to me, verse 9, Prophesy to the breath.
SPEAKER_00: You haven't finished the job.
SPEAKER_00: Now move on to the next level.
SPEAKER_00: Prophesy to the breath, prophesy, Son of Man, and say to it, This is what the sovereign Lord says, Come, breath from the four winds and breathe into this slain that they may live.
SPEAKER_00: You know, the word must be released.
SPEAKER_00: It is when the word is decreed, it is declared, it is proclaimed.
SPEAKER_00: Because you know the word, you know what God is saying.
SPEAKER_00: But the next level is the life-giving level, the prophet, the prophetic dimension of life.
SPEAKER_00: And in this next level, it is the release level.
SPEAKER_00: And you decree.
SPEAKER_00: You have heard us many times, Pastor Ambrose and I from here talking about decrees, kingdom decrees, talking about declarations, talking about proclamations.
SPEAKER_00: It is a word that needs to be released.
SPEAKER_00: And the released word carries power.
SPEAKER_00: The dunamis, the power that is in the capsule called the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: When it is released, then it begins to do its work.
SPEAKER_00: The word of God is ordained as a missionary word.
SPEAKER_00: It is ordained as a our power carrying, power-carrying word.
SPEAKER_00: And this word is true.
SPEAKER_00: This word is living.
SPEAKER_00: And God is not a liar.
SPEAKER_00: Everything he has said.
SPEAKER_00: That it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes forth.
SPEAKER_00: You know, when the word is released from my mouth, and God says it will not do what we can we can read the last part together, it will not return to me empty.
SPEAKER_00: Let's continue reading.
SPEAKER_00: But will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
SPEAKER_00: So release the word, prophet, prophet, and it's repeated like twice.
SPEAKER_00: Release the word, release it.
SPEAKER_00: And sometimes we are afraid when we see situations and they are looking very dire and very difficult.
SPEAKER_00: And we don't want to speak.
SPEAKER_00: You find somebody very, very sick, very, very sick, in a sick bed.
SPEAKER_00: And you are there, and you're a believer, you know the scripture.
SPEAKER_00: You know Isaiah 53 and verse.
SPEAKER_00: Isaiah 53 and verse 5.
SPEAKER_00: You know it.
SPEAKER_00: But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities.
SPEAKER_00: The punishment that brought us peace was on him.
SPEAKER_00: And by his wounds, what happens?
SPEAKER_00: You know the scripture, and you are a child of God.
SPEAKER_00: You are in a city, you are in a neighborhood, you are within a family, and there is a big need, there is a dire situation.
SPEAKER_00: You know the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: So God encourages Ezekiel in the valley of dry bones.
SPEAKER_00: Speak it.
SPEAKER_00: Just simply speak it.
SPEAKER_00: And you can pick a scripture like this and prophesy healing.
SPEAKER_00: Take this destiny, bring it into the now in the life of that person and prophesy that healing and speak to that person and I and say, in the name of Jesus, whom I believe, I decree the Isaiah 53 power over your life right now.
SPEAKER_00: And the healing action and anointing that lies in that word, I release it upon your life.
SPEAKER_00: And I declare that right now you are healed in Jesus' name.
SPEAKER_00: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_00: Today prophets are leaving the house.
SPEAKER_00: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_00: And we shall go out there and we shall take this word, even those difficult situations, and begin to say it.
SPEAKER_00: Begin to say it.
SPEAKER_00: You know, Philippians 4.19 says, My God shall supply every need of mine according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
SPEAKER_00: And you can take a word like this, and you find somebody who is in need.
SPEAKER_00: And I say, I decree and declare that every need of yours is supplied by heaven right now.
SPEAKER_00: Sometimes we get shy and the devil gets a better space.
SPEAKER_00: While I should be the one arriving there and releasing the power through declarations and releasing the power through decrees.
SPEAKER_00: And therefore we find Ezekiel obeying, obeying heaven, and just faithfully releasing.
SPEAKER_00: That's all God is looking for.
SPEAKER_00: The power is in his word.
SPEAKER_00: The power is coming down from heaven.
SPEAKER_00: Your role is obedience.
SPEAKER_00: So all that God is looking for is faithfulness in a situation such as that.
SPEAKER_00: And you know, when he begins to release the word, he must be surprised that there is a rattling sound.
SPEAKER_00: And then Pastor Ambrose, bone comes to bone.
SPEAKER_00: In the first service, I was saying, I don't understand the whole thing, but heaven understands.
SPEAKER_00: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_00: And so if there's somebody broken and you are feeling like pieces of your life are all over, like your whole family is scattered.
SPEAKER_00: I decree and declare bone comes back to bone in Jesus' name.
SPEAKER_00: And even flesh comes back to those relationships.
SPEAKER_00: God has a way of marking a bone that is two kilometers away, and another one here, and they all have do a homing game.
SPEAKER_00: A homing game.
SPEAKER_00: And they are coming from all over because the prophetic word has been released.
SPEAKER_00: And this prophetic word must manifest.
SPEAKER_00: And therefore, the Holy Spirit, I can see, marks this bone, marks the other one, marks that one, marks the other one, and they are all ordered.
SPEAKER_00: You must find each other.
SPEAKER_00: And that which was broken, a family, a home, you know, that is broken, a person who is torn apart.
SPEAKER_00: They are looking good on the outside, but emotionally they are decimated.
SPEAKER_00: You know, spiritually, they are apart.
SPEAKER_00: Mentally, they are all over.
SPEAKER_00: You know, the decree of God that restores happens, is is spoken by a prophet, each one of us, any one of us.
SPEAKER_00: And suddenly things begin to come back together.
SPEAKER_00: And therefore, this miracle that we are seeing in Ezekiel chapter 37, in the Valley of Dry Bones, bones coming together, flesh coming together, and the ligaments and everything, the tissue coming together, I declare is happening in the life of somebody right now, in the name of Jesus.
SPEAKER_00: Is somebody connecting?
SPEAKER_00: Yes, in the pavilion is somebody connecting, and also online around the world is somebody connecting.
SPEAKER_00: This is a prophetic call.
SPEAKER_00: And there is a declaration that everything that has fallen apart in your life is coming down together right now, in the name of Jesus Christ.
SPEAKER_00: And that is what prophecy is about.
SPEAKER_00: It is taking God's word boldly beginning to decree it.
SPEAKER_00: I was telling Pastor Ambrose, my son had an accident in Berlin, Germany, just this week.
SPEAKER_00: Wednesday, actually Tuesday night, and he was at his workplace where he's doing a part-time job.
SPEAKER_00: He's actually a student right now, doing his master's degree.
SPEAKER_00: He graduates this September in Berlin, Germany, but his job is doing.
SPEAKER_00: So in the place, he was working, there's an accident, and my son is in the middle of that accident, and bones are broken.
SPEAKER_00: And then they take him to the hospital in Berlin.
SPEAKER_00: I'm not informed, but the sister in Canada is informed, and there is that interaction, and they are delaying telling me.
SPEAKER_00: I get to know around 6 a.m.
SPEAKER_00: By then he's in that admission process, admitted in the hospital, and by the time I'm connecting Pastor Ambrose, they are about to wheel him into theater for surgery.
SPEAKER_00: So they do an aesthetics, everything.
SPEAKER_00: And you know, now, as a father in Africa and in Kenya, what do you do?
SPEAKER_00: You wish it was Apa Kangemi.
SPEAKER_00: I'm in Arobi Hospital, I'm a Agakan.
SPEAKER_00: Wingye gari went straight, you partake in that moment as your son is being wheeled into theater.
SPEAKER_00: But God reminded me, I am not paralyzed.
SPEAKER_00: I can prophesy.
SPEAKER_00: And you know this story of bone coming to bone, that's the one I started speaking.
SPEAKER_00: And I said, My son, right now I'm speaking to you.
SPEAKER_00: Every bone is coming tweets to the tweets to his friend.
SPEAKER_00: And the flesh where it's cut is coming together.
SPEAKER_00: And the ligaments and everything, and the rest of was a wait until he came through out, and now I could connect.
SPEAKER_00: I want to give you the status right now, as per last night.
SPEAKER_00: He's still in the hospital, admitted, he's he was doing well.
SPEAKER_00: And by Tuesday, they should discharge him.
SPEAKER_00: Isn't God amazing?
SPEAKER_00: This coming Tuesday, they are going to discharge him.
SPEAKER_00: And so we do not become paralyzed.
SPEAKER_00: When we get to settings and situations that look very difficult, because we have a word in season, a word of knowledge, a word of discernment.
SPEAKER_00: We have a word in season, and within the context of the day and the time, we can call forth, including healing, and it happens.
SPEAKER_00: And so a tongue aligned to resurrect.
SPEAKER_00: When you find situations, do you give a negative word or do you give a prophetic word?
SPEAKER_00: When you arrive somewhere, things are looking.
SPEAKER_00: What is your first reaction?
SPEAKER_00: Of course, a lot of people, instead of entering prophecy, they start saying what?
SPEAKER_00: And they become like everybody else.
SPEAKER_00: You look at our TVs, what the media reports, news, they say news, is it when a dog bites a whatever news is?
SPEAKER_00: When a dog bites a man or a man bites a dog, which one is news?
SPEAKER_00: When a dog bites, when a man bites a I think that's left to discussion.
SPEAKER_00: But how did you react this last week to the various scenarios?
SPEAKER_00: When you came to your office, things were not working, when you found your child was not, you know, working well through school, or you find something else, your finances are not.
SPEAKER_00: How did you react?
SPEAKER_00: You know, and you can destroy yourself by saying a negative word because Proverbs 18, verse 21, and you can put it on the screen.
SPEAKER_00: Proverbs 18 and verse 21, you know, this tongue you see here, the tongue has the power of life and death.
SPEAKER_00: And those who love it will eat of its fruits.
SPEAKER_00: I repeat, the tongue has the power of life and death.
SPEAKER_00: And those who love it, you know, will eat its fruit.
SPEAKER_00: You can destroy yourself by failing to be prophetic.
SPEAKER_00: You can destroy your family and your city and your nation by failing to be prophetic.
SPEAKER_00: And that's why God is saying the status quo must not remain.
SPEAKER_00: That valley must not remain being called a death valley.
SPEAKER_00: I am raising a prophet.
SPEAKER_00: I am bringing him close to myself.
SPEAKER_00: I will train him and teach him how to change the paradigm and how he's going to change that world with prophecy.
SPEAKER_00: And I believe today God is raising someone as you go back to your house, go back to that situation, instead of you know complaining or giving words that are self-destructive, abortive words regarding your destiny, be strong, stand strong, strand in the middle of that valley, and command those bones who come together, the flesh and life, call life from the four winds and bring life again.
SPEAKER_00: And therefore, the power of prophecy.
SPEAKER_00: When Jesus stood out at the grave of Lazarus, John 11, verse 43 and verse 44, he just simply commanded and he made a declaration.
SPEAKER_00: When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, Lazarus, come out.
SPEAKER_00: The dead man came out.
SPEAKER_00: Let me say this to somebody.
SPEAKER_00: When you prophesy, you'll be surprised.
SPEAKER_00: Something will happen.
SPEAKER_00: Rattling sound, a miracle begins to show up.
SPEAKER_00: You know, don't delay that prophecy.
SPEAKER_00: Don't delay.
SPEAKER_00: I say, my brother, my sister, don't delay that prophetic decree and declaration.
SPEAKER_00: He says the dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen and cloth around his face.
SPEAKER_00: Jesus said to them, Take off the grave clothes and let him go.
SPEAKER_00: The guy came out, it was just a word and a decree, and death could not hold him anymore because the power of the decree was greater than the power of the grave.
SPEAKER_00: And you know, like I said, Pastor Ambrose yesterday at the Shepherd's Forum, David and Goliath.
SPEAKER_00: How did David defeat Goliath?
SPEAKER_00: He prophesied first.
SPEAKER_00: Yes.
SPEAKER_00: Goliath was killed prophetically before he was killed physically.
SPEAKER_00: If you read it, it is there.
SPEAKER_00: Later you can read 1 Samuel 17, verse 45 to verse 50.
SPEAKER_00: He makes a declaration based on the God he knows.
SPEAKER_00: And then he speaks loudly.
SPEAKER_00: You know, he says, You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.
SPEAKER_00: Then look at this.
SPEAKER_00: This day, and I told you prophecy collapses time.
SPEAKER_00: Prophecy takes the destiny you anticipate, brings it to the now, and speaks it now.
SPEAKER_00: That's what he's saying.
SPEAKER_00: This day the Lord will deliver you, he's telling Goliath, into my hands, and I'll strike you down and cut off your head.
SPEAKER_00: This very day I'll give the carcasses of the Philistine army to the birds and the wild animals, and the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel.
SPEAKER_00: And all those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the Lord saves.
SPEAKER_00: Let's read that part together now.
SPEAKER_00: For the battle is the Lord's, and he will give all of you into our hands.
SPEAKER_00: Why don't you give a hand clap to the Lord?
SPEAKER_00: I think this is really, really, really powerful.
SPEAKER_00: Therefore, you carry power.
SPEAKER_00: Your word carries power.
SPEAKER_00: The word of God carries power.
SPEAKER_00: Don't delay.
SPEAKER_00: Don't delay the release of the word.
SPEAKER_00: God is calling somebody here.
SPEAKER_00: You have delayed the release of that word.
SPEAKER_00: Yet the valley has been waiting for that word so that bones can come together and so that life can come back to the valley.
SPEAKER_00: Finally, the impact of prophecy: a tongue, a line to testify.
SPEAKER_00: Where the prophetic word is released, there will be testimonies, there will be celebration, because signs and wonders will manifest, and the works of God will be seen.
SPEAKER_00: You give a chance for God's glory to be seen.
SPEAKER_00: In Acts, in Ezekiel 37, verse 10, of course, it says, So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them.
SPEAKER_00: They came to life and stood up on their feet of us army.
SPEAKER_00: So something manifests is coming through for you.
SPEAKER_00: And I said in the first service that the victory God wants to give you will blow your mind.
SPEAKER_00: Let me just read it again.
SPEAKER_00: The victory God wants to give you will blow your mind.
SPEAKER_00: Something big, something wonderful, something beautiful is coming in your direction in Jesus' name.
SPEAKER_00: And let me tell you yes, give a proper hand.
SPEAKER_00: Let's just give it to the Lord.
SPEAKER_00: Pastor Ambrose, I sense with the anointing of prophecy that what God is going to do for his people who are gathered in this place, all the people, and also for those in the pavilion and also around the world listening to this message, is something that we public, is something that will be visible, is something that will be tangible.
SPEAKER_00: And the ones who wrote a story about you, a narrative regarding your destiny, and they said you are finished, they will see a re-written destiny.
SPEAKER_00: Hallelujah! A rewritten destiny because of the word of prophecy.
SPEAKER_00: And we have prophesied with Pastor Ambrose from here over and over again.
SPEAKER_00: And Pastor Ambrose, you know the people who picked the word and ran with it.
SPEAKER_00: They later come back with to us with testimonies.
SPEAKER_00: And they say, Hallelujah, hallelujah.
SPEAKER_00: I don't want to enter there because there's so much I can share.
SPEAKER_00: I can go on and on, and you know yourselves, Muna Jua.
SPEAKER_00: And you come back and you come to us and you're coming to testify.
SPEAKER_00: You enter the office and say, Pasi, Leos Yo Machosi, I am restored.
SPEAKER_00: I am fully restored.
SPEAKER_00: The bones are together.
SPEAKER_00: I am alive.
SPEAKER_00: I am here.
SPEAKER_00: I am a miracle.
SPEAKER_00: I am a sign and a wonder.
SPEAKER_00: And they enter your office and they say, Today is not a day of tears.
SPEAKER_00: Because the Bible says, They that sow it here shall do what shall reap in joy.
SPEAKER_00: Today is a day of joy, is a day of celebration.
SPEAKER_00: Is a day I want us to say together, Pastor Psalm 118, verse 23.
SPEAKER_00: This is the Lord's doing.
SPEAKER_00: It is marvelous in our eyes.
SPEAKER_00: Is a day I want us together to say, Psalm 118, verse 15.
SPEAKER_00: I can hear a shout of victory in the tent of the righteous.
SPEAKER_00: I decree and declare your day of testimony is coming.
SPEAKER_00: In fact, it is coming, it is coming, it is coming.
SPEAKER_00: The Lord doing mighty things, he has done great things in the valley.
SPEAKER_00: It is so public, you can't miss it.
SPEAKER_00: The world cannot miss it.
SPEAKER_00: And that's what we call a testimony.
SPEAKER_00: It is something you can see, and it's something you can describe.
SPEAKER_00: It is something so specific and you can say, the Lord has done this.
SPEAKER_00: I am releasing prophetic word manifestations across the board now that lead to signs and wonders.
SPEAKER_00: May the valleys be transformed, may the story of the valleys be rewritten again.
SPEAKER_00: May that destiny be rewritten again.
SPEAKER_00: May you rejoice once again.
SPEAKER_00: May you become like the guy who was healed in Acts chapter 3.
SPEAKER_00: You know, where Peter says, Silver and gold have I known from verse 6.
SPEAKER_00: But that which I have, I give to you in the name of Jesus of Nazareth, walk.
SPEAKER_00: And the guy started walking, and he just went straight everywhere, you know, and he was running.
SPEAKER_00: Keep going.
SPEAKER_00: The next scriptures, chapter 3.
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, keep going again.
SPEAKER_00: Keep going.
SPEAKER_00: Yes, taking by the right.
SPEAKER_00: Okay, let's start with verse 8.
SPEAKER_00: Go to verse 8, the testimony bit.
SPEAKER_00: He jumped to his feet and began to walk.
SPEAKER_00: Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking, jumping, and praising God.
SPEAKER_00: When all the people saw, and people shall see, hallelujah.
SPEAKER_00: They saw him walking, they will see you walking.
SPEAKER_00: You are crawling financially, they will see you walking financially in Jesus' name.
SPEAKER_00: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_00: That's how it's gonna be.
SPEAKER_00: And praising God.
SPEAKER_00: And they recognized him as the same man who used to sit begging.
SPEAKER_00: Now the story is rewritten, their destiny is different because Peter prophesied.
SPEAKER_00: Peter took God's word, released it into his life, and there's a testimony here.
SPEAKER_00: He used to sit begging at the temple, gate called beautiful, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.
SPEAKER_00: The world will be filled with wonder and amazement because of what the Lord is going to do in your life.
SPEAKER_00: Once again, to the young generation, I said in the first service, and I said it in the shepherd's forum yesterday.
SPEAKER_00: The young generation of Africa, Kenya, 15 million shillings will be pocket change for you.
SPEAKER_00: Is somebody connecting?
SPEAKER_00: Young people, and this is going to happen very quickly.
SPEAKER_00: You shall become kingdom financiers because God is raising not just prophets, but kingdom financials.
SPEAKER_00: And therefore, I am saying it again: 15 million Kenya shillings.
SPEAKER_00: I don't know how many American dollars that is, but 15 million Kenya shillings, somebody catch it, will be pocket change for you.
SPEAKER_00: Yes.
SPEAKER_00: Receive it, receive it.
SPEAKER_00: I am so happy.
SPEAKER_00: Young people, I'm so happy.
SPEAKER_00: And God is saying, I'll do a sign and a wonder.
SPEAKER_00: And they will look at you and say, Is this the same young man or the same young girl we saw asking, begging for house rent?
SPEAKER_00: They even couldn't pay their transportation, and they were begging everywhere.
SPEAKER_00: But the same young man is now jumping, is praising God, and God has endowed them.
SPEAKER_00: They are financing the kingdom.
SPEAKER_00: They are coming to Pastor Ambrose and I and they are saying, Is the Jubilee budget 20 million?
SPEAKER_00: Parsi, I'm doing 15 million.
SPEAKER_00: I'll get a friend to add 5 million, and two young people sort it out.
SPEAKER_00: Or even one young person.
SPEAKER_00: Is somebody connecting here?
SPEAKER_00: Believe God.
SPEAKER_00: And therefore, the buzz in the valley.
SPEAKER_00: Ezekiel 37 buzz, what you call the buzz, the energy or the buzz is in the valley, is because God has stepped in.
SPEAKER_00: God has recruited a prophet.
SPEAKER_00: God has tutored a prophet.
SPEAKER_00: And he has shown the prophet how to change destinies.
SPEAKER_00: And then he has given him a destiny-changing word, which is a prophetic word.
SPEAKER_00: And the prophet has learned so fast, he has picked it, he has run with it, he has released it.
SPEAKER_00: I mean, he is now living in the realm of seeing signs and wonders.
SPEAKER_00: This church, we shall see the buzz, you know, the energy of the prophetic word fulfilled.
SPEAKER_00: And God is coming through.
SPEAKER_00: Ambassador, it's coming through.
SPEAKER_00: Everyone here, God is coming.
SPEAKER_00: God is coming your direction.
SPEAKER_00: Those in the pavilion and those who are following online.
SPEAKER_00: I'm so excited.
SPEAKER_00: And I know we are in good times, the season of jubilee.
SPEAKER_00: We are going to see God's hand in a very powerful way.
SPEAKER_00: We are going to make a declaration and ask us to stand now as we make a declaration and then pray.
SPEAKER_00: We can make it first person.
SPEAKER_00: We could say, I will never lose my prophetic voice.
SPEAKER_00: My destiny, that of my family, shall be shaped by the prophetic word I speak.
SPEAKER_00: My voice shall continue to point generations towards God's purpose.
SPEAKER_00: I shall be influential in families, communities, cities, nations for God's glory.
SPEAKER_00: I will be sustained by the word of life.
SPEAKER_00: Not by tradition, but by fresh oil, by fresh fire, by fresh grace from the Holy Spirit.
SPEAKER_00: My victory is now.
SPEAKER_00: My victory is secure.
SPEAKER_00: I now march into it.
SPEAKER_00: In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
SPEAKER_00: And we all say, Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah.
SPEAKER_00: Glory to God.
SPEAKER_00: We'll do the benediction in just a moment.
SPEAKER_00: But just a shout out to someone who has done quite a ministry to another and has acted prophetic over.
SPEAKER_00: She's called Claire Wangiko.
SPEAKER_00: Claire Wangiko, where is she?
SPEAKER_00: Oh, Claire, you're online.
SPEAKER_00: Thank you very much.
SPEAKER_00: Associate Director, Trainer, and Mentor Coach of DC CDI Africa Coaching Group.
SPEAKER_00: Now this person has exercised their prophetic office over this young man.
SPEAKER_00: Cliff, would you come?
SPEAKER_00: Just come, Cliff.
SPEAKER_00: And because of his releasing what she released, or rather she released in your life, you are now an acclaimed what.
SPEAKER_00: Can you say certified coach?
SPEAKER_00: Life coach.
SPEAKER_00: This is a young generation I'm talking about.
SPEAKER_00: And God is calling you to do something for somebody else so that they may bring a testimony in the house of the Lord.
SPEAKER_00: And that's why I've singled out Claire Wangiko for the work she has done in raising this young man who is going now to raise others.
SPEAKER_00: And together as a church, we acknowledge this testimony.
SPEAKER_00: I know you're going to do the same for somebody else.
SPEAKER_00: Yes.
SPEAKER_00: And therefore give praise to the King of Kings with a hand clap and the Lord of Lords.
SPEAKER_00: Thank you very much.
SPEAKER_00: Congratulations.
SPEAKER_00: Amen.
SPEAKER_00: We are going to pray and really thank God for Ezekiel's.
SPEAKER_00: But in my prayer, for some reason, I'm just commissioning prophets.
SPEAKER_00: Because I believe we are all prophets.
SPEAKER_00: All you need to do is take God's word, go release it.
SPEAKER_00: In this prayer, I'm praying that you will obey like is Ezekiel in the valley.
SPEAKER_00: And you will go out there in a world that needs it in the valleys.
SPEAKER_00: Release the prophetic word.
SPEAKER_00: And I know coming next Sunday and the days ahead, there will be a buzz, the healing, restoration in the valley happening throughout the week, and people coming back.
SPEAKER_00: And they saying they are praising, they are jumping, they are happy, and they are saying what the Lord has done.
SPEAKER_00: So it's a commissioning service, and we are commissioning prophets.
SPEAKER_00: The world out there, this city needs prophets aligned to the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: Kenya needs prophets aligned to the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: Africa needs prophets aligned to the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: Europe needs prophets aligned to the word of God.
SPEAKER_00: United States, South America, Asia, Middle East, Far East, Australia, and New Zealand, and also all across Africa.
SPEAKER_00: There is a great need for leaders, transformational leaders like Ezekiel, who will take the powerful word of God and go lift people from their ashes and bring them to the destiny God has ordained for them.
SPEAKER_00: And so as I pray, that's the commissioning I am doing.
SPEAKER_00: Let's pray.
SPEAKER_00: Father in heaven, I celebrate the fact that we can have the school of prophecy this Sunday.
SPEAKER_00: Lord, I thank you for the way you recruited Ezekiel and you used him powerfully.
SPEAKER_00: He saw signs and wonders in his day.
SPEAKER_00: My God, today by this voice, you are recruiting prophets in our midst for the last day prophecy to be released.
SPEAKER_00: And my God, I thank you for everyone who has listened to me, both here and around the world.
SPEAKER_00: And I bring us before you.
SPEAKER_00: Also fill us with your spirit and the breath of life.
SPEAKER_00: That God, as we rise from this place, those valleys of devastation are going to be transformed.
SPEAKER_00: And Lord, there will be restoration all over Nairobi, all over Kenya, and everywhere we shall go.
SPEAKER_00: And therefore, Father, I thank you for the multiplication of prophets like Ezekiel.
SPEAKER_00: And I thank you for the signs and wonders that are waiting out there, the miracles and the works of the kingdom, the supernatural breakthroughs that are waiting, because your people are going in those different directions.
SPEAKER_00: So, my father, I bring all of us before you and I pray, stretch your hand in our direction.
SPEAKER_00: We say yes to you, we say yes to your word.
SPEAKER_00: We say yes to serving you.
SPEAKER_00: And as we live here, we ask that God, your cover would be upon us and your anointing would be upon us, and that all of us shall be used of God in the coming days on Monday and every day as prophets for the kingdom.
SPEAKER_00: The world will not be the same again, and the victory that is coming will blow our minds.
SPEAKER_00: In the mighty name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and we all say, we all say, Let's give a hand clap to Jesus.
SPEAKER_00: Now, listen to this.
SPEAKER_00: You are blessed on Monday, blessed on Tuesday, blessed on Wednesday, blessed on Thursday, blessed on Friday, blessed on Saturday.
SPEAKER_00: This coming Sunday, you're doing what?
SPEAKER_00: Coming back with a testimony, and the devil can do nothing about it.
SPEAKER_00: And now may the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with us now and forevermore.
SPEAKER_00: Amen.
SPEAKER_00: Surely goodness and mercy shall follow us all the days of our lives, and we shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever and ever and ever.
SPEAKER_00: Amen.
SPEAKER_00: Shalom.
