SPEAKER_06 0:00

Thank you very much.

SPEAKER_05 0:02

Amen.

SPEAKER_00 0:03

Woo!

SPEAKER_05 0:04

It's nice to see that you're as excited as I am.

SPEAKER_00 0:10

Amen, amen, amen.

SPEAKER_05 0:11

So I want to talk to you a little bit about the name. You know, and where it's coming from and what it means. And over the past, over the next few months, I'll be talking to you about the vision where we're going, what it looks like.

SPEAKER_03 0:27

All of that is important. Amen. So the word Christ. The word Christ. Very important word. The word Christ, very important word. It's not a surname.

SPEAKER_05 0:55

You know some people are of the belief that Christ is the surname of sin. Jesus Christ, as in first name and last name. That's not what that is. Amen. Christ means anointed. You understand that? Anointed. Anointed. Anointed. So effectively they were calling him Jesus, the anointed one.

SPEAKER_07 1:35

Praise God.

SPEAKER_05 1:37

That's what separated him from everyone. Is that he was anointed. And all my life as I as I've been growing, I realized that what separated me from everyone was that I was anointed.

SPEAKER_07 1:56

That's right.

SPEAKER_05 1:56

Even when I was doing terrible things, in being a terrible person and doing terrible things, I was still anointed. That's right.

SPEAKER_07 2:06

That's right.

SPEAKER_05 2:07

And so that anointing distinguished me from this. So I was a bad, distinguished person. Amen. I was anointed. So Jesus was also anointed.

SPEAKER_03 2:29

And so that's where we get Christ from.

SPEAKER_05 2:33

Christ. Anointed one. So everyone knows Jesus Christ was the anointed one. So question: what was he anointed with? What was he anointed with? What exactly was Christ anointed with?

SPEAKER_04 2:56

What did God put on him that separated him from everyone?

SPEAKER_05 3:05

For years I had this question. How was he able to do all the things he was doing? And how could I walk in that path as well? How could I have so much confidence? Amen. And I cracked that code in 2017. Come on now. I figured it's all in here, everything is in here, and I'll show you. I found out exactly what Jesus was anointed with. And so I would come into work and people would ask me, How are you so confident that you're gonna get your numbers? Come on now. They didn't understand why you walk the way you walk. Why are you talking the way you talk? I said, I found something out.

SPEAKER_07 3:50

Come on, I found out something.

SPEAKER_05 3:55

Amen. So as I was reading, I discovered in Acts chapter 10. And I know this scripture top of my head because I've been meditating it for years. Acts chapter 10. Yeah? Can we go then?

SPEAKER_07 4:08

Yes, sir.

SPEAKER_05 4:09

Let me show you what he was anointed with.

SPEAKER_03 4:16

You're gonna find out today. Acts chapter 10, verse 38.

SPEAKER_02 4:26

Thank you, sir. Acts chapter 10 from verse 38 says, How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power.

SPEAKER_05 4:39

That's it. That's it. Jesus was anointed with the Holy Ghost and power. So that tells me that the Holy Spirit is not the power. Power is something else. But he was anointed with the Holy Ghost and power. He was anointed with the Holy Ghost and power. How God anointed Jesus Christ with the Holy Ghost and power. And he went about doing good. He went about doing good. He went all the different places. He went around doing good. Healing the oppressed of the devil. Is that in the Bible? Yes, sir. Healing the oppressed of the devil. Because God was with him.

SPEAKER_07 5:38

Yes, sir.

SPEAKER_05 5:39

I've been saying that for years. Pastor Max is anointed. God is anointed. God has anointed him. God has anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power. And he goes about doing good.

SPEAKER_06 5:53

He goes about being good.

SPEAKER_05 5:55

Look, listen. Only when the Holy Spirit comes on you, and the power of God comes on you, do you change your mindset from stealing from people, wanting to give to them. Only the Holy Spirit can do that. When you're not anointed, all you think about is how to gain. So he was looking for where to place that power on. Where can I deliver this power?

SPEAKER_07 6:30

Yes, sir, yes, yes, sir.

SPEAKER_05 6:31

What can this power do for people? Yes, sir. So he had a mentality of I need to give rather than receive. Do you understand? Yes, sir. And then it adds on top of that, it says that he healed the oppressed of the devil.

SPEAKER_00 6:48

Yes, sir.

SPEAKER_05 6:50

Healed the oppressed of the devil. So effectively, Christ would find himself in places where Satan rules and he would create change. That's Christ's commerce. Yes, sir. I made sure from the beginning of my ministry that I am proof positive. Yes, yes. That I prove everything. So when I tell you that, listen, you can have a good marriage, I'm showing you. And by the way, for those of you who think my marriage is faultless, you don't know anything. We both made mistakes. But we're showing you what it's looked like, what it looks like to be anointed and together. When I tell you, alright, that you can flow in power. I've demonstrated it's not a one-off, it's not twice, it's not three times, it's not five times, it's not a hundred times, it's not a thousand times.

SPEAKER_07 7:58

Consistently, because I've been anointed from 16 with the Holy Ghost and with power, amen.

SPEAKER_05 8:14

I told you you can be rich, then I became rich.

SPEAKER_07 8:18

That's right.

SPEAKER_05 8:19

I showed you, I said you can.

SPEAKER_07 8:21

Yes, sir, yes, you can do it. Yes, sir.

SPEAKER_05 8:26

Amen. I said you can do it the price way. Yes, sir. A lot of you met me, you know, pushing buggy or my first son, no vehicle, no car. Long before I was driving, I was telling you, I'm rich.

SPEAKER_00 8:42

Yes, sir. Yes, sir, yes, sir.

SPEAKER_05 8:45

I was showing you so that this is this is you can do this thing if you do it properly. Yes, sir. The journey is sweet. Yes, sir.

SPEAKER_07 8:57

Come on, please.

SPEAKER_05 8:59

Because I was anointed. I knew all along.

SPEAKER_02 9:04

I knew all along.

SPEAKER_05 9:08

Praise God. I talked to some of my sons. I told them I was living in a flat. I said to them, watch the house and God next. And then I did it. Yeah, but that's not a thing to celebrate. I've told them recently, watch the house and buy next. I've told some of them you have to walk for nine minutes to get to the front of the first. You can do it the best way. And no one can say, Oh, we gave him money. No, because all the areas of your life, hallelujah. All of them.

SPEAKER_00 9:52

Thank you, Lord.

SPEAKER_05 9:52

Every side finances, relationship, mental health, kids, vision, schooling, he can touch them all. Thank you, Lord. But do you know why you may not be experiencing what I am experiencing? Can I tell you what your problem may be? Because I was meditating on the word, and the Lord said, I want you to talk on this side. This is why they're not experiencing the fullness of my power. So the Lord began to minister to me. Amen. And he said to me, This is where I entitled my message intentional psyche. Intentional psyche. Right? That in cap with two letters. Intentional sightsee. Today I want you to be inspired. Be inspired by the Spirit. Don't sit there and say, you know, I'm just not feeling it, you know. Because the Holy Spirit will not force the message on you. He will give you the message and expect you to get excited about it. So I want you, alright, to be inspired. I didn't say I'm gonna inspire you. I said be inspired. What does be inspired mean, brother? You need to inspire yourself. Yeah, take it in and inspire yourself. Praise God. Inspire yourself. See, I'm inspired.

SPEAKER_06 11:29

I'm inspired.

SPEAKER_05 11:30

I'm inspired. Amen. Alright, let's go to Romans.

unknown 11:36

Romans.

SPEAKER_05 11:37

Let's see what Paul said to the church in Rome. Thank you, Holy Spirit. Intentional sightseeing. Romans chapter 4, verse 19.

SPEAKER_03 11:56

Let's look at this for a second.

SPEAKER_01 11:59

Thank you, sir. Romans chapter 4 from verse 19 says, and not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body.

SPEAKER_05 12:09

Okay, that's it. That's what I want you to read. So I want you to disregard in that scripture the faith part for a second. Yeah? That's all. Yeah. And I want you to focus on what the Bible says, be considered not. Anointed people are very intentional about what they choose to consider.

SPEAKER_07 12:31

That's right. That's right.

SPEAKER_05 12:32

Do you understand? There are things, there are certain um staples that you have to have in your life for the anointing to thrive.

SPEAKER_07 12:40

That's all.

SPEAKER_05 12:40

I told you holiness is one of them. If you want the anointing to really, really thrive, you have to live right. You have to live right. If you're not living right, you'll you will experience this. That's right. But if you're living right, the anointing can thrive and do more and more and more and more for you. Praise God. Now, on top of that, an additional staple that you need for the anointing to thrive is intentionality about what you allow yourself to consider. So that is at this current moment, okay, your life doesn't look like what you want it to look like. You look to the left, there's chaos. You look to the right, there's chaos. You turn back, you're even afraid. If I go back, I'm dead. So the only way is going forward. Amen. All around you, there's games, but you choose. Look, when the Bible says uh Abraham considered not, it doesn't mean he didn't see what's up. You see it, but you don't accept that it's a factor in who God is going to make you to become. So, for example, God says um to Moses, I am going to uh use you. You're gonna go and set my people free. Moses says, first thing, he says, but I don't even speak properly. I have a speech impediment. What did he do then? He considered He considered. God says, You're walking, you know, you're just having a nice day, you're walking in the central London, and God says, I'm gonna give you that building. And you turn around and say, Yes, I ain't got no money. You consider. That's not the place he's called you to be. Anointed people do not consider. Are you listening? Yes, sir. Anointed people do not consider.

unknown 14:49

I'm anointed.

SPEAKER_05 14:51

I walk around saying every venue we've touched is too small for us. Yet I walk in and there's empty cats. I consider not. Those empty chats are not my business. My business is that this place is too small. Because I'm anointed. I consider not. The Bible says Abraham considered not the deadness of Abraham's of Sarah's moon, nor his age. And I love that scripture because it tells me that there might be multiple things that you have to turn away. It's not just one thing. Praise God. You had a nice day praying in the morning, you get to the train station, there's no money for your oyster cover. How pastor, how do I consider it? No, I need to get to work. How do I how do I consider not consider that Pastor? I live in a toxic house. I live in a toxic house. My parents true ahead of complete every morning. How do I consider not that situation? Amen. Can we relook at that scripture? Look at this. It says, And being not weak in faith. So for me, this is so exciting. For me, for me, the only way you can find me considering my surroundings is when my faith is weak. You know why? Because faith causes you to zero in. Yeah, that's so. Yeah. Faith is so beautiful, it demands focus.

unknown 16:46

Come on now.

SPEAKER_05 16:47

Faith is so have you ever seen a beautiful woman before?

SPEAKER_07 16:50

Oh yes, sir. Have you?

SPEAKER_05 16:53

Praise God. Okay, for the for the ladies, have you ever seen a beautiful heart before? Have you seen a beautiful heart before? Did you focus on it for a minute? Beauty demands focus. And faith demands focus. So faith, when you've got it in your spirit, it will cause for you to focus on the right thing. You won't find yourself turning, your head is turning, you're constantly focused on the focusing on the wrong things. But when your faith is hit and you're shaking, and you've got a weak faith, then you find yourself looking for things to hold on to. I think I told you this illustration many years ago. My first time trying to swim. And my first time actually physically trying to swim, I was very young. As I was trying to swim, I kind of realized that my my legs were touching the floor. I don't touch the floor anymore. And so immediately I start grabbing. Because my legs are not on the floor. You see that firm foundation I was looking for? You see that that step that I was looking for? Yes, sir. Are you here? Yes, sir. You see that step I was looking for? That was faith. When I have realized, wait, there's nothing to step on. I start looking for all the wrong things to grab onto.

SPEAKER_07 19:14

Many of you are like that with your faith.

SPEAKER_05 19:17

Your faith depletes, and you start grabbing on to gossip. Your faith depletes, you start grabbing onto your favorite movies. Your faith goes down, you start grabbing onto comics and books. You know, all the things you shouldn't be grabbing onto. And some of the things you're grabbing onto are making you sink even more. Say after me, faith is so beautiful. Faith is so beautiful, it demands focus. It demands focus when a person is filled with the spirit of faith.

SPEAKER_06 19:52

When a person is filled with the spirit of faith, they are focused.

SPEAKER_05 20:23

Maybe you don't understand. So I'm gonna try and explain it to you on what it means that his body was dead. You know what that means? It means that he had erectile dysfunction. Abraham wasn't getting up!

SPEAKER_07 20:41

Oh you keep quiet.

SPEAKER_05 20:46

Maybe this is too much trouble for you. Brother Abraham was struggling, you know. The Bible says when they told him when God came to him and said, you know, you uh you don't have a child. He was thinking, brother, Jew?

SPEAKER_06 21:06

I even I didn't function.

SPEAKER_05 21:17

There's nothing to show here. God said, You will have children.

SPEAKER_07 21:22

Wow, wow.

SPEAKER_05 21:25

Abraham was lamenting his brain. God said, you know, I I I can pass upon Sarah laughing when I said that, but let me take this guy out of here. Let me take him out of the house. That's where the toxickness is coming from. So God brought him out, and God said, You gotta look up, look up, look up. See all the stars. I told you, anointed people choose what they see.

SPEAKER_07 21:52

That's right.

SPEAKER_05 21:54

God was anointed, God is anointed. God said, I need to teach Abraham how to act anointed. Behave like you're an old date. Behave like Christ. So choose what you want to see. Be intentional about what you want to see. Be intentional. Don't just look at all the things that are presenting themselves to you. Look, be careful with what you look at. You're praying and fasting for contracts, and none of the contracts are coming. And now you're sad. What's made you sad? What made you sad? The information coming to you about the contracts is not what made you sad. It's what you think about the information. You feel like failing? You ask me, will this ever happen? Will I ever make money? Will I continue struggling? These are all the questions that make up. I cannot afford to think like that. I tell my kids, when they cry, I tell them, don't cry. You're a man and you're a non. You can't afford to cry. You can't afford to do it.

SPEAKER_06 23:18

You can't afford to say when he was about a hundred years old.

SPEAKER_05 23:39

So first of all, he wasn't even functioning. All right. And the Bible says he was a hundred years old. Neither yet the deadness of Sarah's old. So first problem is I ain't even performing, brother. Second issue is uh even if I do perform, my wife can't do anything really. Verse 20, he's staggered not. I want us all to read that together at the same time. Verse 20 All together.

SPEAKER_04 24:27

Alright, all together. One, two, three, go.

SPEAKER_07 24:40

Did we all read that? Yes, sir.

SPEAKER_04 24:42

No, we didn't. Let's read that again. That's verse 20. One, two, three, go.

SPEAKER_05 24:54

No, no, no, no. Let's start again. I need you to read it, everybody. Even the media team at the back there. Everyone, I want you to read it together. The reason why I'm asking you to read it is because as you're reading it, you're becoming read it. Read it out loud. One, two, three, go.

SPEAKER_04 25:23

Verse twenty-one.

SPEAKER_05 25:33

Are you listening? So so so before I go to my next verse, yeah. Or next book, are you fully persuaded that you are anointed? I'm not convinced. Are you fully persuaded that you're anointed? Oh, yes. I'm fully persuaded.

SPEAKER_07 26:02

Fully persuaded.

SPEAKER_05 26:03

I gave the example. I gave the example when I was teaching on spiritual laws and motion. Sit down for a second. I said that a person who is uh not persuaded is a person who I may be talking to the person, I say, please can you follow me to the shop? The person says, uh no now. I said, Can you just just follow me? It's it's just around the corner. Okay. Uh now at that point, if the when the person says, Okay, are they fully persuaded? No, they are convinced. You get the difference now. So the first first they're not persuaded. I say, come now, she's on the corner. You say, Okay. So as they are coming, that's a problem that you've taken along with you, waiting to happen. You don't want to work with a convinced person. You don't want to be in a relationship with a convinced person. You don't want to be a business partner with a convinced person. You don't want a son or a daughter who is convinced of you. Do you understand that? You want some daughters who are fully. So the person who is uh convinced will say, Okay, and the way he's coming is he's dragging, okay. And as you're going with him, he's asking for favors. Okay, if I'm going with you, you have to get me now his list. That's a convinced person. Yeah. Now, if I say to him, okay, um, let's go, it will be worth your while. Do you understand that? If you come with me, uh the person says, Let's go. What's that?

SPEAKER_00 28:09

Fully persuaded.

SPEAKER_05 28:11

You brought the person over from one time to the other. The Bible says Abraham was fully persuaded. He was fully persuaded that God would deliver.

SPEAKER_00 28:24

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

SPEAKER_05 28:26

So where's your mind at? Where's your mind at? As far as it as far as you're concerned, are you anointed? I'm anointed. Are you convinced you're anointed? Are you persuaded? Are you persuaded that you're anointed? Sit down, sit down for a second. Listen, listen. You're the fact that you're going through tough times doesn't uh determine how or whether you're anointed or not. Remember, Joseph was in prison, he was in convict. But the Bible says God was with him. So you can be going through the worst of the worst, like your health is deteriorating, your mental health is deteriorating. Things are going absolutely bad, but God is looking at you and saying, You are mine. I got you there for a reason.

SPEAKER_07 29:22

That's right.

SPEAKER_05 29:23

It's for a purpose. I'm fully persuaded. I'm gonna choose what I want to see. I'm careful with what I want to see. Praise God. Amen. Do you think that I don't uh experience what you would call losses? You think that you think I don't experience that? Of course I do. I experience them, but I choose what to consider. I look at them and I say, that one didn't happen. That was a simulation.

SPEAKER_07 29:59

Oh no, simulation.

SPEAKER_05 30:01

Yeah, that wasn't real. That was in like an alternate universe that happened. But you asked me, that didn't happen. Because I don't consider that. I've seen so many of you sit down. You go into church, you look at in the middle of your praise, you said, you know what you did yesterday? Let's talk first. Because I reminded you what you did yesterday. You remember what you did last time? You're looking at that girl, we saw you. And you you get yourself wrapped up in a conversation with the devil trying to convince him that you are holy. Say I'm anointed. Anointed people are very strict about what they consider. Even if someone has seen your shame, don't consider it. If you consider it, you will sink. Are you listening? You will sink. Can I tell you why a bunch of people from Jesus' hometown in Nazareth didn't believe in him? That was the hardest place for him to perform miracles. Do you know why? They saw his nakedness.

SPEAKER_06 31:39

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 31:40

They saw him growing. They said, Is that not Joseph's son? Some of them physically saw him naked when he was a kid. He was running around, but naked. And then he grew and they saw him crash out. They saw all his errors. But he was growing in wisdom. That's what the Bible says.

SPEAKER_07 32:04

That's right, sir. That's right.

SPEAKER_05 32:05

He grew in wisdom and stuff. So that place where where he was still the Christ, still anointed, but they saw his errors. So they could not consider him. But Jesus didn't say, ah, they've seen my mistake, so I won't do any miracles here. No, he tried. He came, and the Bible says he could not do many miracles. So he did some. And then he left. He said, I'm not appreciated here, so I need to go where I am appreciated. Come on now, wisdom, sir. Jesus was so focused. He had his mindset that I will not allow realities to change who I am.

SPEAKER_07 32:47

I have, sir.

SPEAKER_05 32:48

I will choose who I am. So he left. I went to Samaria. And he moved to Bethany. And he left. He kept on going. He went where they knew not of him.

SPEAKER_07 33:06

That's right. That's right.

SPEAKER_05 33:10

Now, when I was meditating on this, the Lord said to me, I want to show you something. I want to show you something. This commented it for me. Let me show you. Let me show you. This is long before Jesus came. Watch this. Let's go to the book of Kings. Long before the Lord Jesus came.

SPEAKER_03 33:37

Thank you, holy spirit.

SPEAKER_04 33:41

Oh, I consider enough.

SPEAKER_07 33:43

Oh I consider not.

SPEAKER_04 33:48

I consider not.

SPEAKER_07 33:50

I consider a loss.

SPEAKER_04 33:53

Oh my enemies roaring at me.

SPEAKER_02 33:55

Oh the enemy is worrying at me.

SPEAKER_04 34:12

Now, now I'm gonna explain it.

SPEAKER_05 34:14

I'm gonna explain it to you really quickly and I want you to pay attention to you. Now Syria were at war with Israel.

SPEAKER_00 34:22

Yes, sir.

SPEAKER_05 34:23

There was a prophet called Elisha. This young gentleman, because he was young, he just had taken over, maybe a couple of chapters before, had taken over from his spiritual uh father Elijah, who was ascendant.

SPEAKER_07 34:37

Yes, sir.

SPEAKER_05 34:38

So Syria was at war with uh with Israel, and the Bible says that Elisha would tell the Israel king, the king of Israel at the time, everything that the Syrian king would discuss in his bedroom. How do I know? Because if I continue, if you read in that chapter, the advisors around Syria, the Syrian king, told him that. They said um just before that, they set a trap for the king of Israel, and the trap failed. So the Bible says the king of Syria was upset. He said, Why have we set so many traps? How can we come get this guy? And his advisor said, Uh there's a guy around him. There's a gentleman around him that keeps telling him what you talk about in your bedroom. All the plans that you have in your bedroom, that guy is exposing you to the king of Israel. So you can't trap him at all, at all. Amen. I love being a prophet. It's so nice. So, anyway, uh the king of Syria got really upset. He said, Really? Someone knows what I'm talking about in my bedroom? Oh, yeah. They said, Yeah, there's such a man, and he's on that side. And so he said, Okay, no problem. So uh we're gonna have to um find that man. So he sent out five, they went out and looked for Elisha, and they found him. So they came back and they said, The guy is living in this era, this specific era. So the Syrian king said, the entire host of the army will go there. You have to arrest that guy.

SPEAKER_07 36:28

Wow.

SPEAKER_05 36:28

So they went. So they went, and no and behold, they found him there in his tent, yeah, sitting with his servant, yeah, eating. Praise God. So uh the chief of the Syrian army comes out and says, Tell that man to come out of his tent. So Elisha comes out with his servant, and his servant is afraid. His servant says, Master, what are we gonna do? They found us. Let me show you something. Look at this, look at this, look at this key. It said, it says, it says, When the servant of the man of God was risen early and gone forth, behold, a host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. A bunch of horses, a bunch of chariots surrounding the city, just for one man. Then it says, and his servant said to him, Alaska my master, what will we do? The thing, and he answered, Fear not, for they that be with us are more than they that be with them. Verse 17 And Elisha prayed and said, Lord, I pray thee open his eyes that he may see. And the Lord opened his eyes, the open the eyes of the young man, and ye saw because the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire around about Elisha. Now there's something you have missed there, and you need discernment to pick up these things. Let me show you. I want you to follow me carefully. Hold, he saw that the city was surrounded with chariots and horses. And he seven said, What shall we do? Verse 16. He answered, Fear not, for they that be with us are more than they that be with them. He didn't say, They that be with us are more than them. He said, They that be with us are more than they that be with them. So that means there was a host with them. Yes, and there was a host with them. He wasn't talking about the physical army, he was talking about the spiritual army with them. That's not what I want you to focus on. If you read into that scripture, the following verse says, and God opened his eyes. Or you're too quiet. This thing is so deep. His eyes opened, which army did he see? You're too quiet. I told you, anointed people choose what they see. When you're anointed, you choose what to see. God opened up the boy's eyes, and God showed him only one side of the other. Not another side. For a reason. Because if he had seen all the angels on our side and all the chariots, and if he had seen demons, he'll get scared.

SPEAKER_07 39:26

Yeah, Lord. Wow, that's uh flow stuff.

SPEAKER_05 39:29

So God chooses what to show you, brother.

SPEAKER_07 39:35

Come on now.

It says, Those, let me let me read it again. Is that in your Bible? Yes, sir. Fear not. I told you, if he had seen the other side, he would have been afraid. He said, fear not. Now, before I read that thing, how do I know he would have been afraid? Because he was already afraid of the physical, he had not even seen the demons that were with them. How many times have I been in situations where something has happened? And God says, if I show you this thing. Now, by the way, I've been on the other side of it, right? Where um God has actually shown you multiple times physical demons, physical, and I remember one time which I'm allowed to tell you, the others I cannot for now. Yeah, they are way too explicit. So God also knew that this young gentleman, if he had seen the host that was with Syria, because they worshiped other gods. Do you understand that? They worship other gods, terrible, disgusting gods. The Bible describes them as disgusting gods, they worshiped other gods. So, of course, the Lord knew if I open his eyes and he sees the army on the other side. This boy, this boy will die of a heart attack. Synonymous to Peter walking on water and noticing. Why did he consider? That's the question. Why you were walking, you were doing so well. You walked on water, and then you consider that there's a wave. So that's what I want to ask you now. What are you considering that's causing you to be depressed? What is it that has caused your brain to be fracked? What is it that you're considering? Is it that you're not married? Is that what it is? That's what you're considering. Say Abraham considered not. He considered not. He considered not. He considered not. He considered not being dead in the body. And the deadness of Sarah's Sarah Sarah. So as an anointed person, choose. This is number one lesson of being anointed. Choose what to see. Choose. I am very intentional. I sit and choose what I want to see. Yeah. You gotta listen, let no one convince you otherwise. And do not let them uh use your life as a testimony because you're at the beginning. You're still at the beginning. So they can't use your life as a testimony to say you're not anointed. You are anointed. I am anointed. You are anointed. I am anointed. I'm not the only anointed person.

SPEAKER_01 42:37

You are anointed.

SPEAKER_05 42:39

You understand? I'm a big adult, but just because my children are small, you know, smaller in stature doesn't make them less human. Yes. So just because I do more than you doesn't make me uh more anointed than you. You are anointed. It's just that I've been practicing a long time. If I wasn't a genuine teacher, I wouldn't tell them that. I would make you believe that I'm the only anointed person. I'm not. You are anointed. There's a heavy oil in your face. You have Christ. So he's anointed you with the voice. Let me show you something. And it reminded me of Jesus when he had nothing left. He said, Lord, I'm tired. If you can take this cup away from me, do it. If not, let your will be done. And God strengthened him through the process. And he was able to finish the mission.

SPEAKER_07 43:56

Amen.

SPEAKER_05 43:57

The anointing spans even your own physical strength. Because the oil is on you and the power of God is on you. You don't even need to be strong sometimes. It's a simple prayer, Lord. I'm tired. I'm exhausted. I need you to take over here. Thank prayer answered.

SPEAKER_07 44:18

Amen.

SPEAKER_05 44:19

Unless you like those messages where they tell you you have to pray for hours and going to open. If that's your message, find another ministry. Not here. We are anointed. It's Christ's Congress. We are anointed. You don't have to fast and pray for a job. Or fast and pray for your health.

SPEAKER_00 44:46

Come on now.

SPEAKER_05 44:47

If he's anointed you with the Holy Ghost and with power, as it says in Acts, in the book of Acts. If it says that, then you ain't gonna be fasting and praying for those things. You fast and pray for souls.

SPEAKER_07 45:00

That's right.

SPEAKER_05 45:03

Fast and pray for others.

SPEAKER_07 45:04

That's right.

SPEAKER_05 45:05

There's a sister or a brother in the ministry. The business is not moving forward, you've overheard them complaining, you're going to fast. That's right. So I'm going to fast for that brother. That's an anointed person. Because you go about doing good. You go about doing good.

SPEAKER_00 45:23

Come on.

SPEAKER_05 45:24

God is anointing the young ones in this place. A lot of you don't know this, but the young ones are doing that. They overhear you complaining and they go and pray and fast for you and they come and tell me. I say it's quiet, don't say anything, just fast and say nothing. Then you come up and give your testimony. And then I look at them in the crowd and I say, That's you, brother. That's you. Your prayer is that you go about doing good. You don't manipulate people. You understand that? You don't deceive people, you go about doing good because God is with you. Acts chapter 10, verse 38. God is with you. When God is with a person, the person thinks about giving and doing good for others. What will it benefit me if I fast for Joel? Why? What? What? What? It's even harder to do it than my position. I'm rich, I have everything I need. So all I'm fasting for you for what is he going to give me that I don't already have?

SPEAKER_07 46:24

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 46:24

What car will he buy me that I can't already go and buy myself? But because I'm anointed, it causes me to it pushes me to do things for those that can do nothing for me. And when I'm doing this thing, there's no guarantee. He could leave me tomorrow. He could get up and say, I have to go somewhere else. I've got to call somewhere else. There's no guarantee, but I'm not looking for anything from him. I don't need anything from him. I'm a non face. And the Lord. He said to me two things. He said the first thing is the wind has already come. And he said, the wind moved you. I didn't understand that when you move. And the Lord said, When the wind came, you expected for souls to come first. But it moved the ministry.

SPEAKER_00 47:45

Come on now. Hallelujah. I said, Wow. Yes. Come on now.

SPEAKER_05 47:52

The wind came and I was expecting coils. But rather it moved us away from eating. And then he said, now you're in the right place. I can send the coils. If I really be a man of God. And see what God will do with us. And I was telling Zachariah, this is not in five years, no. Or in ten years, no. This is now. Let's see if I miss. Let's see if I miss. And let's see if I'm anointed. You will see how the multiplication will happen so fast, so aggressive, so bespoke.

SPEAKER_03 48:55

Thank you, Lord.

SPEAKER_02 49:00

Thank you, Lord. That's all I have to say.

SPEAKER_05 49:07

Praise the Lord. And I hope when it happens that you are amongst us. And you're not found lingering. You understand that? You're not found fighting the fight of uh fashion. Or fighting the fight of boyfriend. Or you're not found fighting another fight. I hope you are found fighting the fight of faith. Amen. The second thing the Lord said to me is, It is what is in your hand that I will anoint. So then he gave me the example of Moses. He said, It was a stick in Moses' hand that I used to deliver Israel. Then he gave me a second example. He said, There was a woman that was very broke who met the prophet. And the prophet said, Go into your house and get the bowls in your house. That's what the power will fall on. And the flower will keep coming. By virtue of that, she became the richest woman in that city in that time. So God said to me, You're not the first I've done this with. I've done this with many others in the Bible. It's the people you have who I will anoint. Oh, you're too quiet. That's why I said to you today, you're anointed. Because he told me it's the people that you have that I will anoint that will attract other souls. So because you know this now, go out and talk. Just talk. That's your job. Just talk. Go out and tell them there's a place you need to come and discover where you discover who you are in Christ. Amen. Your job is to just talk. You don't have to do much conviction, go and talk, just talk. And become effective and become influential in the house of God. Some of you are looking for influence in your respective professional fields without being influential in the house of God first.

SPEAKER_02 51:29

How can you be influential?

SPEAKER_05 51:31

Be influential in the house of God first. That influence will carry over into your professional fields. Praise God forever. So with this message, go out and talk. God bless you.
