Hallelujah! Church, can we rise on our feet? Please, if you have a testimony, kindly make your way to the PR desk behind. They are waiting to receive your testimonies. Any testimonies, please kindly make your way behind to put down your testimonies. This is the day that the Lord has made, and we choose to rejoice and be glad in it. Can we lift up our hands to heaven and magnify the name of the Lord? He is good and his mercies endure forever.

Yeshua.

Yeshua.

Messiah.

You are the lifter. You are my helper, provider. You are my savior. Say yes, you are.

Yes, you.

Say yes, you are.

Yes, you. Yes, you are. Raise a sound. Yes, you are. We worship you. We lay you on crowns before you. We worship, we worship you. Yes, you are. This one says yes, you are. Hamas! Let him hear your sound! Just the voices! Break down the music!

Let him hear you one more time. Say yes!

Amen, amen, amen. Good evening, everyone. Praise God. Amen, amen, amen. What an amazing time to be in God's presence, right? Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Jesus. Can we lift our hands and just bless the name of the Lord? Let's honor him, um, because he deserves all the praise, he deserves all the honor. Can I get some more volume? Let's bless his holy name. There's none to be compared to him. There's none besides him. There's no rock like our God. He's the eternal rock of ages, the I Am That I Am, the one that says it and it comes to pass, the Elohim. Let's bless his holy name. Blessed, blessed be the name of the Lord. We bless your holy name. Let's thank him, let's thank him. Him for the blessedness of a new month. The blessedness of a new month. Let's thank him. From January to February till March, and now we're already knocking at the doors of April. What a good God we serve. He's been good to us. He's been faithful. His mercies are ever new every this morning. Let's bless him, let's thank him, let's bless his holy name. Blessed, blessed be your holy name. There's none like you, Lord. There's none at all to be compared to you. You stand out in your class. You are God all by yourself. You are the Most High God, the I Am That I Am, the one who is self-sufficient, self-sustaining, We give you all the praise. We bless your holy name. In Jesus' mighty name we're praying. Can I hear a big amen to that? Now listen to this, all right? One of the impressions that the Lord has placed in my heart, even as we prepare for a new season, is to beware of distractions. Now I'm giving you a prophetic word ahead of the month of April as you prepare for a new season, and I want you to write this down, all right? Beware of distraction, particularly distraction through, um, through offense. In families that will drain your strength and sap out what God intends to do. Beware of distractions. Beware of distraction. I see so much loaded for God's people, and, and like the story of Joshua the high priest that stood before the Lord, and yet the devil was standing by him, um, to resist him before the Lord, and he was putting on filthy garment. You see that now? So I see an attempt of the devil trying to bring charges and accusations against people, all right? Particularly things that happens because of what what? Distractions. So this is the word of the Lord to you in this season. Yes, we are preparing, um, for a new month. God is set to do new things. I know you're optimistic, but you must be spiritually intelligent to see and discern the areas that the devil is trying to drain your strength. You must be spiritually intelligent to see and discern. You, you must be able to discern the things that should not take your time and energy. You must be spiritually smart. Are you following what I'm saying here? To recognize when what you are dealing with is not a person but the devil behind the scene trying to frustrate you and the person. In Matthew, all right, chapter number 16, when Jesus had asked them that, who do men say that I am, all right, as he went further to tell them, now since you know that I'm the Messiah, to tell them what will happen to the Messiah, the Bible said Peter took him by the hand, took him to his side, and began to rebuke him. And Jesus didn't just— he just know it too hard and say, see what Peter said to me, ah, thank you, Peter. No, no, he said it instantly, get behind me, Satan. He saw the spirit behind. All right, there are things you have prayed into and they've been allocated, but you have not touched them. And I see the devil trying to make sure he extends wilderness experience through distraction. You must stand your ground.

Are you following what I'm saying here?

You must must stand your ground. Refuse to be distracted. And how do you do so? All right, walk in love. You walk in love. You walk in love. Sometimes it is difficult, but you know that if you don't do it, the devil will have you where he wants you. Are you seeing that now? The devil will have you where he wants you. All right, pay keen attention to what I'm showing you tonight. Night. Are you following what I'm saying? I, I sense very strongly that a very powerful month is just in front of us. I didn't hear amen to that.

Amen.

I sense very strongly, um, that a month that is going to be, um, a month that is, um, God is summing up help and goodness is just in front of us.

Amen.

I, I didn't hear a good amen to that.

Amen.

I sense very strongly that them. You are about to laugh.

Amen.

Uh, they didn't hear what I said. I said you are about to laugh.

Amen.

I said again, you are about to laugh.

Amen.

I said again, you are about to laugh.

Amen.

In the name of Jesus.

Amen.

God will send you help.

Amen.

In the name of Jesus.

Amen.

God will send you help. Amen. Listen to this, he's going to send you help. Have you seen— the kind of help a person will receive. And for 2 days, it is like you are dreaming. All right, it is like you are dreaming. Um, let me share this with you, all right, because it has a lot to do with the word for the month. I remember a pastor that I respect so much was teaching, and he mentioned a time that his spiritual spiritual father just called suddenly, that are you at home? Said yes. I'm around your environment. This spiritual father is a father in the body of Christ in Nigeria, so he's not one of those men you just find around. Then he said that what they had in the house for the weekend was about maybe ₦200,000. So they called the people with them, they used that to prepare a table quickly, quickly arrange fringe, prepared a good meal. He came in, he sat with the family, ate with them, and by the time he was done and he left, he just blessed them and left. The man of God said he heard God. God told him that this is the package for what you have done to honor my servant. Till you will see me in glory, you will never buy recharge card again. Now that may look like, uh, what's that about recharge card? Meanwhile, you're AMTM. I caught you. All right, that's a joke, but I'm serious. All right, so that was the package God gave him. As at the time he was sharing that testimony, he said he had MTN card worth 2 point something million. When your recharge card is more expensive than your phone, meanwhile you can be using iPhone 15 and you owing ₦50. It happen inside life. So, um, but what I'm trying to show you is that there are dimensions that a man can enter through obedience. I have dimensions that I entered. I'm not sure I want to mention anyone online. I just did certain things and God said, son, I give you this package. Are you with me now? I'm telling you, just, just did certain things and God said— and that is what many believers don't know. That is what the world system is trying to guilt-trip and gaslight believers away from. That the moment you do certain things relating to obedience, to sacrifice, ah, you must be a fool. There are ministers that God told me partner with directly, and I did it for a while, and then God said said, because you are faithful to making sure the work is easier for my servant, this, this, this is what you will also see in your ministry. I mean, let me tell you, because people just say Apostle is just traveling everywhere. By the grace of God, this month we're going to be in Paris, we're going to have a very special legal service in Paris, we're going to have in Republic of Ireland, Dublin. I can tell you, this, this, this was when International was opened. It usually doesn't start with men, it start between you and God. You get something, right? God said, this is a package I have given you now. And meanwhile, you can be there struggling and say, please help me with visa.

Are you following what I'm saying?

I mean, I've gone to places before, and I'll tell you, I mean, God just bless you with people like angels.

Gone to places to do this, say, Apostle, Apostle, this is— do you have visa? So and so country.

I say, no, consider a done.

When God speaks, even nature responds to you.

People can't tell the reason why they are led to help you in a certain way, because the package for that door to be open, you have received it. That is where obedience comes in. You can't get through covetousness. What a man go through consecration. Think I heard that from Apostle.

Somebody can get some— God just give him instruction, do this, somebody just get it done God said to the person, you will never have to buy a car again. You will never have to buy nail to build a house. Consider your house my project. Are you following what I'm saying here? I'm talking about because we just come every month, oh Lord, yeah, please, this car, thank God for prayer. That's why I want us to pray in understanding, because there are things that God has said, do, be loyal to this, be faithful to this, be committed to this. They are the things that should open those door. You cannot open with prayer what obedience should open.

The woman— because I'm going to show you scripture, 1 Kings 17, the widow that was picking sticks. If she refused, if she ignored Elijah and went inside to pray, she would die of hunger. The response, the way God was going to attend to her, that was the response Many of you are running businesses. You, you can tell that so far so good, it is still effort, not grace. You look at your finance, you know, you know that you have no— you are not there yet. You know that this is effort, you know. And even the efforts have gone, what is left, it doesn't agree what you are making. Working like an elephant, eating like an ant. You know now. But the question is For how long do you want to continue like that? I'm telling you, there are dimensions that are opened because you got something right. When I speak with people, they say this door is open. I say, hold on a minute, before I will celebrate with you, show me your journey into it. If not, you cannot repeat the result. Are you following what I'm saying here? Get up on your feet, everybody, wherever you are. Thank God it is video, all right?

You will lift your voice loud and clear and pray, Father, open my eyes to to see.

Listen to the prayer, because listen, one of the reasons why many Africans pray so well and they don't succeed is because the only prayers they pray loud is one that has to do with enemies.

Open my eyes to see what— listen to what I'm saying— what I must do to unlock certain aspects of my life. What are the covenant practices you want me to hold on Even as we step into this new season, Lord, I am— listen to what I'm saying, hold on.

There are times you pray and God will not tell you because he has not perceived the willingness to obey. The mother of Jesus came to tell Jesus, said, wine is finished in this wedding.

Jesus' response—

I mean, if it was African mother, she would have slapped him. Yes, so you know your moms now. He said, wine has finished.

What have I to do with you.

Say, you go and do this in Jesus' name. You slap Jesus in Jesus' name.

All right, but the mother, the woman knew the kind of child she had now.

A child that she knew that nobody slept with her to have the child. She told those guys, anything he tells you to do, do it.

It means that the willingness to obey can provoke God to say what he did not intend to say. Let him always perceive. You get to a point where—

let me tell you this, and I told one of my friends yesterday, I said, see, this is the way I relate with figures, with money, all right? If I enter into a dimension I've not seen before, I put it down. Father, you are the provider. See, this is me, you can test me now. You are the provider, you are the one who gives the things and all that. I put it here. Tell me what I must do with it. Whoever you want me to give it to, tell me. Until he speaks, I don't go ahead to spend.

So because he sees you—

are you following? I've said somebody say, ah, I start doing this practice now. Apostle has taught us the secret. Me too. I just go and empty your account, put it there and say, Father, I'm willing to obey.

God said, okay, I've been waiting for you to obey.

Go and sow that money. You were never willing to obey. You just wanted to do copy base. The moment he perceives obedience in your heart, there are instructions he will begin to give you. You, you, you will notice that your Isaac is just an Isaac. It is when the Isaac climbs the altar that becomes a nation. That is when you are willing to what?

Obey him.

Open my eyes to see what I must do to unlock certain aspect of my life. Lift your voice loud and cry and pray.

Lift your voice and pray it.

Oh yes, open my eyes to see what I must do.

All right, lift your voice loud and clear, pray. Open my eyes to see what I must do. In the name of Jesus. Open my eyes to see what I must do. Open my eyes to see what I must do. Lord, that I will be able to step into new realities through obedience.

What do you want me to do? In Jesus' mighty name we are praying.

Amen.

Look at what the Bible says now. He said, have respect to covenant. Hm, I love that scripture. He said, because the dark place of this world is full of what? The habitation of cruelty. All right, what does that mean? It means that you will experience wickedness in the areas that covenant is not governing. Many Christians are empty.

What did—

I'm telling you what I know.

In 1 Samuel 17, when David got to the war front, what was it that David highlighted about Goliath?

He said, who is this uncircumcised what? Philistine. That is, who is this tall guy that is not under covering? Who is this tall guy that is not under covenant?

David knew that was his focus.

He highlighted it that this guy is not on that covenant, and if he's not on that covenant, he can fall for anything. All right, let me tell you, many believers live their life— because unfortunately, we're in a generation where everybody believes that because social media has given people a voice means they should speak. All right, people don't— you check people's life, it's empty. They don't have any covenant practice as a believer. No covenant practice. Let's even talk about maybe, maybe just say something as basic as taking care of the orphan.

Say, me too, I'm not earning enough. Let something from you flow there. He that gives to the poor lends to God.

Ah, that's a practice. Maybe this is not even the correct— maybe the covenant practice that I know— I'm speaking to the body of Christ, so don't say Apostle you want your tithe. My covenant practice is that I understand the place of tithing as a place of honor.

Now I am going to be faithful.

In fact, I will begin to step up to this dimension. Maybe the covenant practice is that, all right, every birthday I'm going to do beyond just eating cake. I'm going to feed people on the street. What is the covenant practice that you are living by? You wonder the reason why money don't stay in your hands because you are not covered. Many, many Christians don't know, and many— in fact, unfortunately, many people, many pastors have stopped saying some things because they will be dragged. Some of us will still say it once in a while, but we will say it in better light, all right, when the door is closed, because somebody can be listening online now, and then there are different blogs, and what they want want to do is just to get an headline. Are you following what I'm saying? But you must wake up. Don't let social media collect destiny from your hands. Listen to what I'm saying. Don't let social media collect what? Destiny from your— all this bandwagon effect, they talk, I talk. People are entering into covenant of premature death. You see young people, small boy, 24, 25, 30, 35 5. Go online, say Adeboye is a fool, Adeboye is this. I've been warning you too. You have a pastor in church, you, you go and comment. Even me, I just check those pastors. Very soon they will collect. Your pastor does not know that he has a dangerous person in the system. You wonder why you say amen to the prayers but you are not shifting levels because your life is not balanced. You are either in or you are out. You can't straddle defense. Are you following what I'm saying here? I know what I'm saying because we just like to shout without knowledge. Let me give us another—

the same prayer, but you pray it, all right?

Find a spot.

Open my eyes to see what I need to do next for the doors in front of me to open.

Lift your voice and pray.

Open my eyes to see What I need to do next for the door in front of me to open?

You are the one that knows the door in front of you. All right, please pray. Reke sende rogo shinde rogo shinde.

Re kabai la non se kere nerogo sikere.

Rinde rogo se kere nerogo shinde.

Open my eyes to see what I need to do next, for the doors in front of me to open. Oh yes, in Jesus' mighty name we are praying. What was the principle at the Pool of Bethesda?

It is the principle of timing, Kairos. All right, I feel what I'm saying.

That's the principle.

Now Now when the angel stares it, the first what? Jump in. Let me tell you how that happens. There can be 200 people in a city asking God for the same thing. What God is going to do is that he's going to cause a staring in their heart at the same time. The first to jump in. Now you feel what I'm saying? I remember because God told me, he said, son, be careful not to allow your generation take you as a teacher. You are my prophet. So that, I mean, so I knew that, I know that I have the responsibility to magnify that office. I have friends that know my office as a prophet. One of them called me I don't even want to get into it, but let me just say this. The moment there's a steering, that nudge you had to do what he said you should do, you are not the only one that received it.

That's the reason why you notice that even when you said no, the agenda did not suffer. That's the way it works. Give me this. Okay, gather all of them together. Distribute the same item at the same time. Go and do this. Was that not what happened in Reading before Parkin Dami died?

He told all of them now, go and empty your accounts. God told him the person that will do it is the one that will be the next Jew. Maybe there is a panel in heaven. This one say, Lord, you know I'm the next. I say, Lord, I'm the next. Test of obedience.

Now that is the principle of kairos. Cross.

So people don't know that once God says do this and they fail to do it, sometimes they rewind their life by 10, 20 years. They miss the season. You will have to queue now for the same door to open.

That was how the man at the pool of Bethesda— you can see his frustration. 38 years now, did you see it? 38 years frustration. Because the moment this one say, say I didn't have any man, it would be— we don't know, before you know it, they might be sleeping. There's another saying, they The ones that have men, they've dumped them there. They are out healed. The problem about missing season is the time it takes to recalibrate.

God told me I'm starting a new series on Tuesday, Isaac and Samuel. Understand the dynamics of delay. Sometimes people are delayed because because they missed the voice. Ati monju, we are too smart. Social media is a plague right now, I can tell you. Reduce screen time so you can read the Bible and hear the voice of the Spirit.

Reduce screen time so you can read the Bible and hear the voice of the Spirit. Many junks, people that don't know— discipleship is tough now.

Because the head of people is full. They are not sitting under the same shepherd again. That's why they are eating thorns and thistles. Sheep are bleeding in their mouth. They are bleeding in their mouth because they are not eating green pastures, they are eating thorns. So when they go and they should speak, they are speaking offense and all that. They are bleeding in their mouth. They are bleeding in their mouth. Let me tell you, if you don't— if you, if you think think.

It is until I say, 'Thus says the Lord,' to know what I'm saying is prophetic.

Then go and think it. Means you are not praying. Let me show you the scripture now.

You must know what to do next. There are always openings where we— you just sense it in the spirit. There is an opening. God just gives you the intel.

And I'm telling you, I am telling you, there are times I just know that I'm stepping into a new season and I know what I I should do. All right, I mean, I don't do things blindly. I just know that there's an opening. I just call my wife, babe, we are taking— I remember when we're constructing the project in Ibadan. All right, I tell you, we— at certain point, there was a weekend that what we had left on ground was about ₦300,000. This is a project that cost millions of naira. We called ministers and ministers we were expected much. Sold ₦100,000 here, all right, ₦200,000 here, then took the last ₦100,000 to a minister of God in Lagos. I will tell you categorically that that's the last construction project we struggled to do. Are you following what I'm saying? That's the fact. I say that all these pastors, you don't know where they are getting money from. You soon find out. The mother of Jesus told them, whatsoever he told you to do, he asked you to do.

Do what? What? Where are your own whatsuvers? That's why water has not turned to wine. Now, where, where do you have the document of the things you are doing? Not by impulse, because God said do. The relationships you are keeping because God said keep. The doors you are— because God said said, go for it. There must be a track record of covenant living. Stepping into a new month, open your voice, your mouth once again now. Father, don't leave me in my condition. I repent of my lack of willingness to do what you have said. In your mercy, speak again. In your mercy, speak again. I repent. In your mercy, speak again, for your servant is listening. In your mercy, speak again. I repent. In your mercy, speak again.

Oh yes, in Jesus' mighty name we prayed.

Lift up your hands, everyone.

I just sensed, all right, my spirit to tell you that the instructions God is giving to you now, you will not know what it means to enter scarcity again. Ah, did you say the amen?

You will not know what it means to enter scarcity again. There is a dimension in God where all the resources needed for every project is available on the bill of grace and mercy. I learned in a hard way that when you ask without grace, it's called begging.

When there's grace, grace people beg to give. You will know what it means for a man's hands to be touched by God. In the name of Jesus, you will know what it means for a man's hand to be touched by God. Now look at this, 1 Kings chapter number 17. 1 Kings chapter number 17. God is said to help you, don't use your own hand to scatter it. The anger of a moment can send you 20 years behind. Hand. I just add that for you now.

God is set to bless you.

Don't use your own hand to what? Scatter it, scatter it, so that you don't have plus 1, minus 1, plus 1, minus 1, plus 1, minus 1 across your life, and the answer is still what? Zero. All right, 1 Kings chapter number 1:17. Um, let's start the reading from Um, verse 7, 1 Kings 17:7. And it came to pass after a while that the brook dried up because there had been no rain in the land. You know what God told Elijah was that, um, there's going to be raven. I've commanded raven to bring you bread. And then there's going to be by the brook, there was no water, but you will have water. All right, ravens are very smart, if not the smartest birds. Very smart. All right, so I mean, ah, if I was talking to pastors, I need them to understand that when there is bread but water has dried, it's time to leave. All right, you have word but spirit dimension is longer there, go and retreat. All right, verse 7: I came to pass that when the brook dried up because there had been no rain And the word of the Lord came to him, saying, Arise, get you to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and dwell there.

Behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain you.

And he arose. Are you with me? Are you with me?

And went to where?

Zarephath.

And when he came to the gate of the city behold, the widow woman was there gathering sticks. And he called to her, saying, fetch me, I pray you, a little water in a vessel that I may drink.

And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her and said, bring me, I pray you, a morsel of bread in your hand. I mean, if God said he has money to feed, God did not say that she's broke. Now, did God tell him that she was broke? Ah, God did not tell him that she was broke. And she said, as the Lord your God lives, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse. And behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it and die. And Elijah said unto her, said to her, fear not, and do as you have said, but make make— I'm sorry, but make me thereof a little cake first and bring it to me. All right, and after, make for you and your who? Son. All right, let me just give you a big one. Time God warned me and he said, the process I pass you through, you are becoming too emotional in teaching my people. All right, that is, it is very easy for me to be in the to be in the shoe of the woman than to be in the shoe of Elijah. In the shoe of the woman means that I can give my last. But the moment Christians say, ah, this is my last, I'm going to give as a seed to God, ah, don't worry, don't worry, and we make people miss their seasons because there's a generation that's already gaslighting you and say, ah, the things of the spirit are not emotional.

If you are not ready for insult, don't do ministry, sell bread.

Sell ice cream, and the day you sell the one that is not frozen, they will insult you. Okay, very important. So he said to her, make for me first. Ah, look at it now.

Fear not, do—

I'll go and do as you have said and make bread of the cake first and bring it to me, and after make for you and for your son. For thus says the Lord God of Israel, the barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail until the day that the Lord sends rain on it. If this woman had said no, that is when you would discover that there are many widows in the land. Did you hear what I said? You know, the widow of Zarephath looked like the only widow because she was compliant.

If she had said, no, get away, thief, thief, thief, you will discover that God has reserves who are willing to obey.

And what happens? The blessing moves where the obedience is. That's the formula. Are you following what I'm saying here? That's the factor. I mean, now the woman just became a multi-millionaire right now. Did God tell you that Raven was even giving bread for Elijah?

No.

Now God said, who will sustain him? The woman. Abi, is that not the reason for the abundance? Talk to me now.

If—

oh God, people are not following. If by the time the thing came, say, look at you, dirty looking old man of God, prophet, yeah, yeah, what do you call yourself, get out of my house, that is when you discover that the container has size. What happens is that if you forget the reason why God lifted you, you destroy that there is an height. It is descent and ascending, so you can descend. Are you following what I'm saying? If the container was 20-liter container, what is left will be 20 liters. 20 liters calculation. I'm saying this because of the unique word God gave me for the month of April.

Father, I do not want to live by emotions.

I want to live by the revelation of the Spirit.

Show me— please, please take a posture of prayer. Take a place where you can—

show me what I must be doing to get the results that will marvel my generation.

Show me what I must be doing to get the result that will marvel my Show me what I must be doing. In the name of Jesus, lift your voice loud and clear and pray. In the name of Jesus. Femi Lazarus. Oh yes, show me, Lord, what I must be doing. Show me what I must be doing.

In Jesus' mighty name we are Amen. Let me tell you something, all right? I'm talking about living by the Spirit. There are times that maybe I'm fortunate, maybe somebody just went to my social media platforms, all right? And I just see, all right, I mean, now maybe somebody has just sent a message, and usually I don't respond to this kind because I don't like trouble. And God said, respond to this one. I'm telling you you. When, when— what's his name again? Um, was this guy that was leper? Um, lepers, huh? Naaman, the one. Now that's captain that was a leper. Now a captain that can't eat with the king, he will win battles but cannot enjoy the real dividends. It will not be your portion. When Naaman Man said, when Elijah said go and wash yourself 7 times, you know what the guy said? Are there no better river? Are you what I'm saying? That's why the man of God said 7 times, because he knows that he was not— in fact, Elijah only said that for the integrity of the name of God in Israel, not because he cared. Not because— how can you be stranded and still be proud? How can you combine arrogance plus lack? I've never seen a generation more funny than this.

Go and check.

How can you combine it?

They are saying this is the scripture.

Look at it now. The result is here.

They don't mind them. Don't mind them.

Many of you are confused now because social media is your Bible.

You don't read it for yourself. We, we, we, if we are not having genuinely spiritual people. Even discipleship now is war. Many people are not going the way they are malfunctioning.

Let me tell you, there are times God tells me, son, so-and-so person is going to call you, maybe number is going to call you now, pay attention to this, that, that. I just do what God said. The rope of blessing that he starts threading when we obey him, ah, it is not instantaneous. Sometimes it is in 10 years' time you will understand it.

You begin to be— you start thanking God for obeying him the way you did.

I remember recently I went to minister somewhere, right? And then a senior minister of God was coming. I mean, I had to delay going to to catch my flight. So I had to greet the man. By the time I got to my own flight, they said, your flight just left. I was pained, I was this and all that. I mean, and I started asking myself, should I not have greeted this man? God, I was doing right. I mean, just if you had come 1 minute ago, you'd have met up your flight. They just locked the door now because they know me. Say, Apostle, I would have just called them for you. I called my team, I said, let me get the next available flight for me to leave this place and get to Abuja right away. He said so and so jet, very value jet. I said they are going to, they moving. I said, all right, let's get it now. I got to the place where I supposed to get that flight. God told me, he said, I want to show you that I can't owe a man anything. While I was going, I said, let me just pay for this one. I said, I got to the place, I met a senior military officer, very senior rank. You see his guards there, all right. While I was telling my people, how much is this, let's quickly pay. The man said, I paid, I post you, I Blessing to me. Let me tell you something. The result of that singular decision is between me and God. Sometimes it looks like you are losing a battle because God wants to win a war. Sometimes it looks like you obeyed God and it activated trouble.

The failure to obey him is the real trouble.

Sometimes what you call trouble is the devil's initial reaction to a dimension you have entered. And by the— problem is that when you have blamed God, when the things start coming, you start enjoying the fruit, now you not come back and talk. You have blamed God, left that on social media. Are you following what I'm saying here? There are disappointments that becomes your greatest testimony for the year. I know what I'm saying, experientially. Are you feeling what I'm saying? Put your hand on your head, everyone, as we step into the month of April.

Empower me to be submissive to your will, to die to self, to enter the pool of the blessings through obedience.

All right, empower me, Lord. Empower me, Lord. Empower me, Lord. Empower me, Lord. Oh yes, obeying God requires empowerment Empower me, Lord, to be able to enter into new dimensions through obedience, to be able to break into new realities through obedience, in the name of Jesus. Rako senu. In Jesus' mighty name we're I mean, let me give you an illustration.

Now somebody said, what do you do, sir? I'm a photographer.

I'm a photographer. Okay, hi, photographer.

What do you want? This is— I want—

oh God, I'm just looking for gadgets.

So I'm a videographer. I'm this— I'm a media person. Gadgets in my field.

Yeah, but yeah, let's go for gadgets. Anybody here want these gadgets? All right, I see the yes side is very fast. But let me tell you something. So I'm trying to gather money now, and somebody said, ah, ah, please now come and help me shoot my daughter's birthday day.

Say, how much are you willing to pay?

Say, we'll give you ₦15,000.

Say, ₦15,000 what?

Now you know I'm an international photographer. Say, you just block their number. Say, what nonsense is that? Me, they trying to gather money for this. Meanwhile, in that birthday that they didn't pay you enough, somebody is going to be there who like your work, who can pay you ₦5 million. Sometimes when, when you obey God The person gong gong in front of you is not the one that God is going to use. You have just entered into a radar where you can be seen by helpers. Let me— should I say this or should I not say this? Many people began to hear about our ministry just in greater proportion just recent times. The series that I started that brought such awareness, I was not going to teach to take it yet. God said, son, go and take it. Let me leave it.

May you receive the ears that hear promptly. May you receive the heart that obeys God well. May you not be too smart for grace to carry.

Amen.

May you not be too intelligent for help to locate.

Amen.

May you not be powerful enough to say no to the Lord. Amen. May God not struggle to lift you.

Amen.

Can God struggle to lift a man? Oh yes, because he will not wrestle with your will.

May God not struggle to lift you.

Amen.

May your case not become too difficult for prayer to undo.

Amen.

As we're entering into a new season, you are going to be at the right place at the right time. You will hear the right information at the right time. You will do everything right. You will enter into the pool of the blessings of the Lord in the name of Jesus. You will get it right. All the seasons you have lost because you said no to the Lord. All the seasons you have lost because you could not obey God promptly. All the seasons you have lost because you were doubtful, and sometimes you consider some sacrifices too much. On the bill of mercy, may a new opportunity be presented to you. All the tests you have failed because you found it difficult to trust God.

May you in this season pass the same test.

May the mercy of the Lord speak for you. May the covenant of mercy speak for you always. May you not know what it means to be stranded in destiny. May you make every decision right.

In the name that is above all names, God will help you and they will hold you by the hand. In the name of Jesus. In the next 1 minute, lift your voice and pray in the Holy Ghost, everyone. All right, pray the Holy Ghost loud and clear. Shinde rugo, shinde rugo.

Oh yes, pray, pray in the Holy Ghost.

Shenderugu, shenderugu.

Oh yes, you have one more minute.

In Jesus' mighty name we are praying.

Amen.

I didn't hear amen well enough.

Amen.

All right, we have 3 minutes to the month of April. So let me show you— that's, I mean, those of us Nigerian time anyways. So let me show you this scripture where the word for the month is taken from. This is the scripture, Isaiah chapter number 49. Oh, thank you, Lord. Are you there? Isaiah chapter number 49. I will start the reading from verse 8. Isaiah 49 from verse 8. There's a lot of possibility that is trapped in this month.

When you—

whenever you hear teachings like this, it is because God is trying to clear the way so nothing will hinder what he wants to do. Okay, Isaiah 49:8.

Now look at it.

Thus says the Lord In an acceptable time have I heard you, in a day of salvation have I helped you, and I will preserve you. They are not saying the amen. And give you for a covenant to the people, to establish the earth. All right, to cause to inherit desolate heritages. I didn't hear amen to that.

Amen.

I didn't hear a good amen to that.

Amen.

All right. Ah, there are a lot of words too. Ah, Jesus. Let me show you two more scriptures. That's in Isaiah 49:18. Look at it. Isaiah 49:16, 2 more scriptures. So lift your eyes round about and behold, all these gather themselves together and come to you. As I live, says the Lord, and you shall surely clothe you with them all as with an ornament and bind them on you as a bride does. I didn't hear amen to that. I didn't hear amen to that. For your waste and your desolate places Cities and your land, the land of your destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of many of the inhabitants. All right.

And they that swallow you up shall be far from you.

Now let me show you Isaiah chapter number 45. I'm going to go back to that 49. All right, are you there? Now you put your name there. Thus says the Lord to his anointed, even to Femi Lazarus, whose right hand he has health, to subdue nations before me. I didn't hear amen to that.

Amen.

I will loose the loins of kings and open before you, before you, all right, two leaved gates, and your gates shall not be shut.

Amen.

I will go before you and make the crooked path straight.

Amen.

I will break in pieces the gate of brass.

Amen.

And cut in sunder the bars of iron.

Amen.

I will give you the treasure of darkness.

Amen.

And even the hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that I, the Lord, which call you by name, am the God of Israel.

Amen.

I didn't hear amen to that.

Now the word for the morning is exactly 12 o'clock, Isaiah 49.

All right, that's verse 8. All right, said, thus says the Lord, in an acceptable time have I heard you, in the day of salvation have I I helped you. All right, so I want the media to project the word for the month of April 2024. How long will that take? All right, so this is the word for the month of April. It is a month of supernatural help. So this is a covenant-based word. God says that I am going to what? Help you in all the areas where you need help. In the month of April, you will see help.

Amen.

Death and destruction will not come near your dwelling.

Amen.

I silence all hostility against your destiny.

Amen.

Every agitation against your life in the spirit realm, we silence them now.

Amen.

And I decree and declare throughout this month, receive help.

Amen.

Let help locate you everywhere you turn. You will know what— listen to this, listen to this— you will know what it means for God to help a man. You will know what it means for a man to be carried by God. You will know what it means for a man to be carried by God.

In the name of Jesus, let the mighty hand of the Lord rest upon you.

Grace upon grace, increase upon increase. Eh, popon help!

That thing that looks like what is too big for you to carry, the supernatural hand of God will help you carry it. It is done in Jesus' mighty name. Welcome to the month of April. Welcome to the month of supernatural help. Now listen to this before we go, all right? Usually every end of the— beginning of the new month, that is when we give our covenant seed, all right, PPC. I want them to project their account details. I'm not apologetic about it. I mean, you should. All right, let's give, and give with intentionality. All right, somebody sent a message and said, Apostle, what if God said to give to you personally? All right, send a message to Flame Line, that's the number on the screen, and request for that on a personal level. Then they will give you the account. I mean, I'm not one want to. Anybody who knows me know how careful I am about that, right? So I want to bless you now, that's why we put the account details there, all right? You have the— what's it called— um, uh, dollar account, naira account, what's this other one, PayPal, all right? So you have everything, and then all the sort code, whatever, all those Swift code. So use them and give deliberately and intentionally, all right? According to proportion. Nobody is forcing anybody as such.

Anything.

Well, that's the last prayer I want to pray before I release you to go.

Father, I lift my voice today.

Just put the accountants there. On behalf of the partners of this ministry who are partnering with us on covenant basis every time, even as they have made this work easier for us to be able to break into new cities, new nations, and different places with the gospel, I ask my Father and my God that they will not know a better yesterday. Resources for you becomes what is a must.

Amen.

As you have decided to make this work easier, your life will not drag.

Amen.

Things becomes easier for you also.

Everywhere you turn, everybody wants to do you good. You will know what it means to bring from a well that doesn't run dry.

Amen.

The hand of the Lord rest upon you abundantly.

Amen.

You will have more than enough.

Amen.

In Jesus' mighty name we are praying.

Amen.

God bless your resources. I mean, from the depth of our heart as a ministry, God bless your seed sown, and particularly those who are consistent partners.

Thank you.

You may not have an idea of what you are doing, but it is deeper than you think. All right, so make sure you remain consistent and steadfast. God will keep you. Um, those of you in Dublin, get set. All right, those of you in Paris, get set. Trust in God for help. It is going to be a very serious time. I mean, are you feeling what I'm saying here? Well, can lay somebody's hand and say, all these trips, all these trips, I want to be a part of the flight or even be in charge of the flight. Why not send a message to Femi Lazarus on the screen and said this is the dimension how to partner. We'll be glad to accept you in those dimensions and then we pray for you consistently. Tomorrow morning, which is this morning, there is no PPC, meaning that the next PPC is on Tuesday morning, and we are going to be talking on the subject of supernatural help throughout this week. All right, I love you guys dearly from the depth of my heart, and that's why we make all the sacrifices to be here All right, every time, um, God keep you, God strengthens you, and God bless you.

Throughout this month, you enjoy favor.
