Hello everyone, welcome back. We're still talking about the prophetic path to spiritual illumination, all right? And the the point that we have mentioned on, we've talked about the fact that the prophetic word is reliable. You have to take heed of the prophetic word, use it as a light in the sh in a dark place, all right. And then we also said, how long were you to hold? Are you expected to hold the prophetic word? And we said you should hold this co-perception with God until the day dawns, all right? Until the sun comes up. That's what the day dawns mean, and the and the day star arises in your heart. But you see, this word when it says until the day dawns and the day star arises in your heart, is actually a curious statement. Okay, is a curious statement because you can see when I told you that the Bible is literal, you can see what's going on here. First, there's an artificial light that you're using to shine in the dark places of your life, right? And then after a while, the you you hold it until the light comes on. And what light are we talking about? He says the day star. What is the day star? Day star is the sun, and I told you that you're a star, and the Bible says that you are. He said the day star arises in your heart, is you, you, the real you. There's a breaking of the spirit. This is the path to spiritual illumination. Are you seeing what I'm saying? Spiritual illumination is when the glory of God is released in you, the glory of God in you, the real you comes bursting forth, and the whole world sees you. But it says for you to get to that point is that you have a series of prophetic words to help you, and then you keep on holding it until such a time as the real you begins to shine forth. Alright? So the whole idea of using the prophetic word, understand that the whole idea of having one prophetic word, two prophetic words, so many prophetic words that God keeps giving you, it's not just meant to, you know, sustain you indefinitely. Like your entire life you'll be depending on prophetic words. No, it serves as a temporary solution because your spirit man is not yet released. Do you understand? When your spirit man is released, then see, the consciousness that you have is on another level, it's on another level. Like there's just this consciousness that you have of everything around you because you're now bigger than everything. See, everything that you're going through is as a result of your consciousness. I'm telling you, it's your consciousness that is giving you those things. That's why you're you're seeing them. The moment you can change your mind, you can repent, change your mind. The moment you can renovate your mind, do not be conformed to this world, but be what? Renewed by the be transformed, rather, be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Once you renew your mind, you will be transformed. I'm telling you. And when you're transformed, you don't need the prophetic word again. You don't need it because there's light now. You can see, I'm telling you. There's clarity, you can see, you can tell. Whether you are seeing it by hearing or by seeing with the eyes, the scene of the eyes, or by taste, or by smell. Anyhow, you will see it, you will know. Nothing will be strange to you anymore. So the prophetic words, all this prophetic words that God is giving us for now, they serve as a temporary solution until your spirit is released. And this is what God wants for all our spirit to be released. Is this even important for our spirit to be released? This thing Pastor Esther is teaching us. It's sounding very, you know, tough and like you know, theology and all of it. See, let me tell you, when Jesus comes back, if you're if you're on the earth, right? When Jesus, when Jesus comes back and you're here, you will need to release your spirit. You see, when the trumpet sounds, right, we think that maybe it's just something that is just automatic that everybody will just be flying and be going, no, no, no, no, no, no. That trumpet sounding is a call to prayer. So if you're a born-again Christian and you did not hear, you have not been learning how to hear the voice of God all this while, you have not been practicing it. When the bridegroom comes, you will be like those people, one of those virgins who did not put oil in their lamp. I'm telling you, this is that's the parable of the ten virgins. That is the parable. That the people that will be left behind, they will not know. Do you get so you have to practice these things I'm telling you first and foremost, so that when the trumpet sounds, it will be a call to prayer. It may be at 3 a.m. or it might be 3 p.m. somebody else's time. Do you understand? It might be 1 a.m. somewhere else, it might be 1 p.m. somewhere else, but all of us will hear the call to prayer. And at that time, it doesn't matter whether your boss, you're in a meeting with your boss, or you are in a meeting with this person or that person. If you have trained yourself, yourself as a soldier, that when the Lord tells you get up, you get up. You will get up in that time. You say, Excuse me, sir, please, I just need it just a few minutes, and then you leave. You go and enter your prayer closet, wherever it is that is. If it means taking a walk and be going, because it will be an urgent call to prayer, and you know that if you don't pray this prayer, somebody is going to die. You know that kind of prayer that God will call you in the middle of the night and tell you to pray, and you don't even know who you're praying for until maybe weeks or months later, somebody comes and gives you testimony of what happened to them. Are you getting? And then you begin to pray. In that prayer is when all of us will be changed. In that moment, there will be a time you must have generated enough spiritual energy, then we will be changed instantly. And when we are changed, let me tell you, it is your spirit man that does it. It will be a release of the spirit, you will know what to do. I had never given birth before when I had my son, right? Just like there's always a first time for a woman to give birth. But do you know? One of the things that I read is that you should not worry yourself too much about how you're going to deliver your baby. All the things the doctors will be telling you is there, oh no. But when you get there, your body knows what to do. I thought it was a lie. Truly, my body knew what to do. So they kept on saying, Oh, you have to push, you have to push. Okay, push now. I realized that what the doctor was, the nurse was telling me, the nurse that was helping me, what she was telling me was different from what my body was feeling. Do you understand? So when she was telling me to push, was not the time my body wanted to push. It was so my body was not doing it. So at one point I decided I just remembered that thing. Like, wait, oh, my body knows what to do. So I relaxed. As I just relaxed, baby popped out. Do you see? Your body knows what to do. That means you, even you like this, you know how to be transformed. You know how to bring out the spirit, you you know it. I'm telling you, it's just that it's ask a butterfly how they became butterfly now. One time they were lava, how did they become lava and become pooper and then have a chrysalis around it? Tell ask them when you see a butterfly. Please help me. I ask, how did you know what to do? Do you understand? It is they already have the potential in them. You were once a child. How did you know to grow? You were once a child. Do you understand? How do you know to eat food? How do you know when you were hungry? Did anybody tell you that this is hunger? At one point, you just discovered that wait, this is hunger. Are you getting so your body you know what to do when it is time, you would unleash the spirit? Do you understand? So, all these things I'm telling you, there's no one that is wasted. Let's let's forget all this childish Christianity. It will not take us anywhere. Our lives in this world is not just dependent on what we can eat, drink, what we can wear, and all these wins that we call wins. No. We are headed somewhere. We are here to act, we are on a test. This is a test, this is a temporary assignment, all right? And we want to finish well because there's a place we were going, we're headed for somewhere. There's a journey we are on. We're stars, so we're stars are always journeying. You should you should know that by now. There's nothing in the universe that is static. They're moving, they're moving somewhere, you know. And what are they chasing after? We're chasing after the glory of God. Hallelujah. The prophetic part of spiritual illumination just gives you a glimpse of how you should operate for the rest of your life. It's actually a tool for training in co-perception, in having a picture. God, God is so merciful and kind. He tells you have pictures. We don't even, all the pictures we are seeing around us is not helping us. So he says, You know what? I'm going to give you pictures. So he begins to show you pictures, what you should be looking at, and he says, This is the path that I want you to take. So you have to train yourself in co-perception with God until you can experientially enter into the realm of glory, all right? You already are in the glory, you have the glory of God, but your experiences may not be matching with that information, all right? But God desires that you would transition from relying just on the prophetic word, and he wants you to transition to walking perfectly in his glory because then you are the real you and your working. Ultimately, the purpose of the prophetic word is to aid you in revealing and manifesting the glory of God in your life, all right? And finally, we look at the last thing on that in that scripture, which is that the arising, which is the arising of the day star. I told you it's a very curious statement because the day star arising in your heart refers to the unleashing of the glory of God within you. Remember when I said that the stars that you see that they are actually like is the a star is a is the glory of a spirit being. That is the entire glory of a spirit being. That's what a star is. Your entire glory also is inside of you. And he says the day star arises in your heart. That means now you can shine through. Glory to God. Isaiah chapter 60 from verse 1 to 3 speaks about rising and shining. Why? Because the light of the Lord has come and his glory was risen, is risen upon you. Even as the darkness covers the earth and the people, the glory of God shines upon his chosen ones and it draws nations and kings to the brightness of their rising. So the purpose of mastering co-perception, you must master co-perception. You must master co-perception through the prophetic word. And the purpose of mastering co-perception is for you to gain clarity so that you avoid shipwreck on your faith journey through life. So many people have had shipwrecks on the dark, murky waters of life, right? But once you gain mastery in co-perception, it will pave the way for the relief release of the spirit or for the manifestation of God's glory in your life. Ultimately, the goal is for the glory of God to be realized in your life and manifested fully in your life. And you know, this is not just when we're talking about the manifestation of the glory of God, it's not just for personal fulfillment, you know, because we can see in Isaiah chapter 60 that it was not just about having food on your table or just about fame and fortune. No, it's so that you'll be able to help others because the whole world lies in darkness. Until Jesus now came, he was the first light to shine, and he came to draw people out of the darkness of this world. And now he left us behind so that we can do the same. We can help others out of the darkness as well. So when the whole world turns and they see you shining, what happens? They begin to run towards you. The nations come running to you. The nations come running to you, and kings now come to the brightness of your rising. Why? Because they also now realize that you're a king. Are you seeing that now? So when the Bible talks about the fact that we are a nation of kings and priests, it is literal. But until you realize the glory, you will not be able to walk as soul. So you need to master co-perception. This is the point of this season. And I want you to go back and listen to it over and over again. The Holy Spirit will help you to understand these things in the mighty name of Jesus. You have the spirit of God in you, and you have the mind of Christ with within you also. That means you have all information, it's accessible and it's available to you. Just imagine AI now. AI knows everything. How come? If AI can know everything, then it means also that it is true when the Bible says that you have the capacity to know all things. A lot of people are like just so mad at AI nowadays, because I saw an account on TikTok and they said is an is AI that you know she has some music up on Spotify, and then she has like 3.3 million subscribers on her music platform, but she's just purely AI, and you know, people are making comments to this so-called AI that she's not real and all of that, trying to challenge her to do a live, you know, or even do a live show and all of that. So, but then you can only complain like that when you do not know the spirit that you have because the Bible says that you have all information is accessible, it's just that you have not yet brought your mind to the fact that, oh, I can get this information from God. Do you understand? I longed, I'm telling you, when I was six years old, I was told that God just germinated out of the ground. There was no explanation for the existence of God. You know, nobody created him, so he probably just germinated out of the ground like a plant. So if he's a plant, so who created plants? It was just so confusing. I was six years old when I started thinking these things. I started thinking, I looked around, my father was preaching, but there was no conf no explanation. Do you understand? Where do I get this information from? I went to church all through the period, you know, the church I attended, they kept on saying, Oh, we teach the undiluted word of God here. What is the undiluted word of God when you can't even explain to me how I got here? In fact, faith was the most difficult one to understand because how do I even have faith in this? You know, I had a relationship with God, I was growing later on, but there were so many things, so many, you know, gaps in my knowledge, and I didn't know what it was. I searched for books, you know, later on I started reading books. Some of it started coming together, even after I become a pastor and preacher, it started coming together. But one time I had to tell God, God, show me, like, teach me now what's going on here. Are you getting what's happening? Why is this information obscure? I say it's not obscure. It has always been there in the Bible. You just never asked me. Just the same way he says, ask of me of the nations, and I will give you for your inheritance. So if you have not drawn your attention to it and say, Oh God, this is what I want to know. Do you understand? Then he won't give it to you. If you if you are a scientist and you're looking for solutions, for example, you want to discover a lot of things and all that, and you ask God, God will show you. My father in the Lord was a scientist and he wanted to discover the cure for sickle cell anemia. And at one point, he said he was working on it, and one day he just told God, you know what, you can show me these things. And then he left what he was he had been working on for weeks, and then he went to sleep. And in a dream, God showed him the solution, and that is what was what he was known for, you know, and he got the solution and he was able to produce the medicine for sickle cell anemia. So you can imagine God can give you any information. The only problem is that there are blocks, spiritual blocks in your mind that makes you think that God is hiding things from you. What is his benefit? What how does it benefit God to hide things from you? And then Satan will be distorting the truth, right? You watch some movies and you see if you know that if you have been listening to DIY Salvation, you watch some kind of devilish you know movies, you already know where they are distorting the truth. Do you get? Because all these things are in the Bible, it's just that no light to see it, but now God has given light to see it. I asked him and he showed me. Now that he has shown me, take a hold of it, take advantage of it. They ask him to like learn the ones that I've known already. Do you get the ones that God has shown me? Learn it and then go and ask him for some more and share yours with me as well. I don't mind. Do you understand? Until the day star arises in your heart. So the goal is for the glory of God to be fully realized and manifested in your life. Like I said, it's not just for personal fulfillment, but also to draw others to the light and brightness of God's presence. Because at the end of the day, we will lead others to salvation and also lead them to transformation. So in Isaiah chapter 60, we see the picture of a person in whom the glory of God has been manifested. In the realm of the spirit, you see, this person is engulfed in great light. But in the physical realm, what people see is just his they see his great influence, they see his financial prowess, they see his fame, they see his prosperity. Are you understanding? They see his peace of mind. But you see, in the realm of the spirit, he's engulfed in great bright light. And this is what we are I've been calling from the beginning of this broadcast as what I've been this is what we know as the release of the inner man. It means that the inner man is now shining out of the outer man, and the senses are no longer in control. It's the inner man that is now in control, and this is what we call true spiritual enlightenment. Many religions of the world they seek this spiritual enlightenment, but it sees it is only a new creation reality, it can only be found in Christ. There is no other way to spiritual enlightenment. If you like, fast for the next 360 days, you cannot see this light. The only light, the only way to get this light is that you have first you have to be first lit up by the spirit of light himself. God has to light you up first, then you can now maintain the light. And this is what I'm telling you, you have to maintain the co-perception with him so that you can walk within this light perfectly forever. There is no other way to spiritual enlightenment than through Christ. Now, even in Christ, you can see that for you to even experience the permanent spiritual illumination, you have to do what? Master co-perception. Father, I thank you for everyone listening. Lord, help us to master co-perception. Help us to master co-perception. I decree and declare that these words are rooted deep in their spirits, causing the changes that they need. In the name of Jesus, every darkness in your life, I come against it with the light of God's word. Every darkness in your life, I come against it with the light of God's word. If there is any demonic oppression in your life, in the name of Jesus, I command you, evil spirit, out right now in the mighty name of Jesus. I command everyone under the sound of my voice to be free. I decree and declare the light of God shine all over you, all around you, over your life, your ministry, your finances, your relationships, your job, everything concerning you, all your affairs. Let the light shine. Let the light shine in Jesus' mighty name. Amen.
