DAY 2 AFTERNOON SESSION || THE TODAH EXPERIENCE 2026 || Liberty Life Ministry

Femi Lazarus teaches on the Holy Spirit's power and living in what he calls an "unforced rhythm of grace." He warns against accepting punishment as blessing, urges diaspora listeners to return home and build institutions, and emphasizes that the Spirit's word brings life while the flesh is useless.
Chapters
Please, good morning everybody. Please let's be seated. Oh sorry, we're in the afternoon. Well, you know, you're cold here, can't tell the difference. Wow, good afternoon. You know, if there's flood, do you guys experience flood here? I want to teach you something about the spirit. If there's flood right now, and a very mighty moving flood, kind of flood that carries cars, somebody now goes outside to put maybe a chair to block the flood. The current of the flood is more than the protocol of that chair. The Holy Ghost is a mighty moving force. I don't need any conditioning for him to move. So relax as kings. Amen. Glory to God. He's here. You don't need feelings. True? I think they said I sing on B major or something. B, yes, on B. Okay, thank you. Lift your hands where you're seated and just give Jesus praise from the depth of your heart. And I want you to voice out— make it full— voice out this praise in your heart. Give him worship. And I want you to be very, very intentional. Be very intentional. Let's give him praise. You deserve the glory and the honor. Lord, we lift our hands to worship as we praise your holy name. You deserve the glory and the honor. Lord, we lift our hands in worship. I shall praise your holy name, for you are great. You do miracles so great. There is no one else like you. There is no one else like you. For you are great. For you are great. You do miracles So great, there is no one else like you. There is no one else like you. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Oh, blessed be Holy name. Amen. All right, just a quick one. Let me start from where I stopped yesterday. I'm going to make it more brief this morning or this afternoon. When next I have to be here, we're going to take testimonies from this meeting. John chapter number 6, please. Um, we read that yesterday and we're just gonna go to verse 63. John 6:63. If you are there, say amen. Can we read this together? 1, 2, 3, go. It is the Spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit and they are life. I might have to read this from different translation because sometimes King James can be so polite. Are you still there? Um, let me read Good News Translation. Says, what gives life is God's Spirit. Human power is of no use at all. The words I've spoken to you brings— I'm sorry, bring God's life-giving spirit. That's good news. I'll show you God's Word translation. Says life is spiritual. Your physical existence doesn't contribute to that life. The words that I've spoken to you are spiritual. They are life. I'm going to read more translation. Let me read Message translation. The media precisely— do you have Message there? You don't have? Okay, let me read from here. Okay, the spirit can make life. Sheer muscle and willpower doesn't make anything happen. Every word I have spoken to you is a spirit word, and so it is life-making. Please, I want us to be very, very attentive. Because the protocol that God has ordained as the manual for our existence is the Word. When a believer despises that, they will live with the manual of men. Once you live with the manual of men, you see, you struggle. And this— look, please look up, let me explain this. If a person has a small mind, no punishment can be enough. I will tell you what that means. There are people that even— take it, take for instance the prodigal son that left his inheritance or Or he took his own now, true? He took his own and squandered it. What happened to him? He started eating with pigs, true? He became stranded. There are people that that level of eating with pigs and being stranded is what they call blessing. Their mind is that small. So even what ought to be a punishment that you flog them back home, They are grateful for it. Do you understand? What can you do to help them? Nothing. One time I was listening to Reverend Dr. Oma Opai, and as he was preaching, he was crying. And he said, if you know what God has ordained for you compared to where you are now, you will cry every day. There are people who don't— like, we've seen it all. We are used to dysfunctionality. We are used to the hardship of living outside His presence. Like, like we are good. Do you understand what I'm saying? So to try to introduce such people to such life in Christ is like a waste of your time. Particularly those who feel— I'm unapologetic about that— those who feel that being outside your immediate country is being— is having the world. You lie. Do you understand what I'm saying? It's not true. I want us to pay attention. That life, when God was going to introduce it to Adam, what did he do? He released his breath and it will amaze you that when Job said that there is a spirit in man, the inspiration of the Almighty gives him understanding. The word that also translates inspiration or inspired word is ha, breath. What that means is if I have an inspiration from God about something, I have the life force for it. Let me give you an instance. Let's assume— what's your name? Deborah. Deborah what? Ado? Ah, Ado. You Nigerian? No, you are not. What's your name? No, no, don't give me that. What's your name? Tayo. Come, Tayo what? He's a gomo shaman, so. Let's assume I'm the king of a kingdom and I sent Tayo to America and I gave him a phone. Anytime I need to reach you, I will call you on this line. Whenever Tayo gets stranded, he reach out, and as soon as he reach out, we send him what he needs. That phone is the channel through which he can reach me. If he reaches me, he will be at peace because just one word is enough. Say, I need this. I say, relax. He knows it is done. The believer who goes on a journey and stops hearing God is finished. Thank you, sir. Because the problem is that you felt that new job is always answer to your problem. Do you understand what I'm saying? No, you don't understand. Chai! Somebody say chai! No chai. There is a spirit in man. The inspiration of the Almighty gives him understanding. It means when God wants to release life in an aspect of your life, he inspires you. He releases that breath into your mind. He helps you to see. Do you understand that? He shows you things. He begins to paint pictures in your spirit. You know, it is that thing that takes you away from competition. Because everywhere there's competition, there's anxiety. And every time you compete You reduce yourself to the level of the one you are competing with. Because God, God is more. It is not this or that. It can be something entirely different. So when you have access to hear from God, for God to, to release his breath into your spirit, to ventilate your mind about what he wants you— do you understand what I'm saying here? You have life in that area. You have life. When God speaks to a situation, there will be life there. It is only on earth that we have living or non-living thing. Whenever God, who is source of life, stands anywhere, everything lives. I remember there was a time I was preaching, I can't remember whether South Africa or where, and I just got an inspiration. Surprise your wife. Wow! So while I was, I just quickly pressed my phone and said, someone get me so, so, so, so, get me flowers and take it to my wife. Wow! It's not every time it's inspiration about money. He can give me inspiration about how to put smile on somebody's face. I would have loved to share a story, but because this has been livestreamed— listen guys, one of the biggest blessings you can have in your life is that your channels are open to keep on hearing God. And I want to beg you, by the mercies of God, make sure there is nothing any human being can be to you that can replace God. It doesn't matter how good they are. The best of men is still a man. Do you understand that? Oh, I thank God for— oh, this person— oh, ga! Hold on to God. And I'm going somewhere with this. So, hm, when He wants to turn desert into a fruitful field, He releases what? You have no idea how excited I am just sitting here and just hear you talk. And as he was saying, let's reduce moving around, I said, what? Not only will this work grow, it will have shape. Amen. Because it is clear. When that life of God is at work in your mind, one of the things it does, it allows you to recognize. Let me pray a prayer for you, but before I pray it, let me show you something. One time, Abraham was close to his death. He needed his assistant to help Isaac get a wife. Have you read that in your Bible? That guy was his servant. What prayer did that guy pray? Let the God of Abraham please go ahead of me, o. When time came for Jacob to get a wife, did he pray to the God of Abraham? He said, I have 7 years to give. A servant understood what was in the house better than the son. And because the servant prayed, God went ahead of him and brought Rebecca on a platter of gold. It is your costly assumption that you must work for everything. Grace brings. Oh, the guy that prayed was not a Nigerian because some of you even try to stigmatize prayer that we pray about everything. Really, you don't pray about everything because you are, you are smart now. Wow, wow. So all you have to do is just to to manifest it. Say, I speak to the universe. The devil just say, eh? And call to say, you hear what she said? He shocked. He say, it shocked me. Say, you that they dedicated on the altar of prayer, say, I just close I close my eyes and manifest it. Manifesto. The guy prayed. Answers to prayer might look like coincidences, but it's the work of angels. For some reason, that was the time that Rebekah also felt like fetching water. And for amazing reason, she was not in a bad mood. You know this thing they tell people, this your character, this your character. Itu . She said no. I'm the owner of my body, I can do. You cannot enter destiny by luck. The exam doesn't come with a date, just normal event. You'll be talking to men, not knowing you are talking to angels. You look at the same thing that happened in Genesis chapter number 18. Very interesting story there. Abraham was by the plain of Mamre in a tent. Maybe he was on vacation, we don't know. But some men were passing, and the Bible referred to their presence or their appearance as the presence of God. And he recognized it. Why would an Abraham run after some mere guys just passing? Recognition. It is not enough to recognize times and seasons, recognize men. One of the Femi Lazarus. Let me plead, maybe this should be a prophetic warning. You see, those of you Christians that once somebody displeases you, you don't hesitate to just block them. You so pride yourself in your ability to block. Your WhatsApp is like a prison yard. If they post a status you don't like, block away. Hi there, I saw you on this WhatsApp group, block. Hi, what's your name? Block. Eh! The prayers some of you are praying for is in your block list. It's true. Is in your what? One of the biggest miracles that happened in my life happened on a Sunday afternoon. I came back from church tired. Sometimes the people— not sometimes, even if I just say, let me visit you, the people waiting to see me are more than this, everybody here. So I get really exhausted. And I came back tired and I feel I deserve to rest. And God said, don't sleep. He said, somebody will call you, give the person what he needs. I said, okay. So I sat down on the bed and I was just waiting. And I called my wife and I said, God said somebody's going to call and I think the person might be in need. And, um, So what I have in the account is gone. Wherever the person is, when the person calls, I'm sowing it as a seed. She said, all right. So few minutes after that, my phone began to ring, and the funny person that wants to call that I've zeroed my account for now called me on WhatsApp. And I don't like that, except you are not in the country. A Nigerian number called me on WhatsApp on Sunday afternoon. I feel this is not fair. So I picked the call. I said, hello, how are you doing? Person was talking. I said, sir, I need to see you now. I said, don't worry, don't worry, relax. God spoke to me about you. I said, I asked the person, is it a matter of life and death? Say, yes, sir. I said, okay, come to so-and-so place, come and see me. Then the person came. If you see this person on a normal day, you think he's a boat driver. Doesn't look anything special. And said, so, so, and so, and so, and so, I wanted to do so-and-so thing. God sent me specifically to look for you, sir, and bring this to you. The rest is history. You go somewhere, say, hey, hello, how you doing? Say, no, I don't shake guys. If we see this here, we'll bite you, eh. Are you following? There are things you just— you see, see, if we can't deal with you physically, we'll come to your dream. You wake up, your nose is gone. But I say this by the Spirit: be careful of the way you cut people. Anybody who can't manifest love cannot operate perpetually in discernment. The purpose of discernment is not to cut people off. That's not the purpose. Jesus knew that Judas was a thief, but he kept him in the fold. I'm not saying you go and bring people that will kill you. Ah, do you understand? Say, no, after Apostle taught today, I start working. They will kill you. And when you die, you die. That's not what I'm saying. But Abraham recognized, just knew, just knew. And that was how Isaac was born. Imagine that the people carrying the manifestation of that promise were just going to pass by. When God made Eve, did God say to Abraham, "This is Eve, her name is Eve, so she's a fine girl, see, look at her"? Did God say that? Pass. Some of you, your spouse has passed, has stayed, has stuck. You went to sit at the back today, right? I'll still come for you. Do you understand what I'm saying? Some of you, like, God, God, are there single guys here? Manifest yourself, raise your hand. We are working on it. It's federal government project. But sometimes that's how life happens. Kairos. You just make one move and there you are, exactly where life has been waiting. Just one move. I have so many dangerous stories about Kairos. So many. Stories that doesn't make human sense. Just give a simple instruction, boom, and that the fruit from that one instruction for another 10 years you are still on it. To be small requires more effort. That is, every provision of grace you consistently said no. It takes effort. For many of you, that life of God is saying, get out of your comfort zone. I'm trying to show you in practical terms. Am I speaking any Greek and Hebrew? Just simple things that we can see in the Bible. Imagine when those guys who had dreams in the prison with Joseph came to tell him and say, we had dream. And Joseph said, see, my life is already painful, will you get out here? Those guys may not pay him for interpreting their own dreams, but they are the ones that will put him before Pharaoh. Imagine that when they got out, Joseph now wrote a letter, ma come out, ma catch you. Do you understand? Imagine that Joseph was a Nigerian. He will write it there. May my God judge you. May— there are people who won't give you anything, but they can speak of you to those who will. If you learn to walk in peace, you make God's processes in your life faster. Because God can send people to you and they have to first try to forgive you. Maybe I'm in the wrong place. It's the truth. Sometimes the manifestation of your miracle is in picking that phone and send message. Thank you, sir. Thank you, ma. You've been a blessing to me. We are not saying those who don't have their flaws, but you, you are responding to a season. That's it. Some of the— I've seen life. There are times somebody, people, maybe somebody just comes to see me. And the person who come, simple car. Yeah, I just ask someone who is with me, do you know that person? Say no. That's so-so and so in this country. What? You now go and check on Google, say what? In the days of the manifestation of your destiny, say not, 'I'm a child.' If it comes for you early, take it early. If it comes for you in the middle part of your life, take it. If it's coming later, do what? Take it. Listen to this, guys. When God wants to— I showed you yesterday that life is the protocol that God designed to manage everything. If we understand the Bible— listen, listen, listen— and I'm not— and everything I'm teaching, by the special grace of God will manifest it. Listen, I'm not going to end my assignment with Mike. We are going to not just teach it but also demonstrate it. If we understand the Bible, we will amongst us have the best scientists. It's not a matter of amen, it's the truth. If we understand the Bible, we will have the best schools because no wisdom is greater. Abst— Throughout Light Camp that we had December, I taught marathon teaching, sometimes 6 hours, sometimes one verse of the Bible. Because if we understand— sometimes I'm reading about— I'm crying, like, can we see this? How many labs did God have to open to make man? Word. The protocol, ethical considerations in everything we do, our labs, our medical institutions, is in the Bible. He's the first scientist before they start learning science. You just read, and God made man in his own image. Until you start looking at the complexity of man, until you have to sit down with a cadaver. Let's leave cadaver. And you start wondering, is this— do you understand what I'm saying here? Listen guys, it takes people who are spiritually funny to say there's no God. Some of the biggest scientists that have walked the face of the earth acknowledge that there is a force. That the trees you are seeing there, the beautiful rivers around, the mountains, how can you tell me they are product of Big Bang? When was the last time a bomb produced something beautiful? There are suggestions devil put in people's mind and he's shocked that they believed. He's shocked. Ah, and I'm saying this, that Many of us, even in what we call our best state, we are still prodigal sons who ran away from the father. Do you notice that when the prodigal son came back, despite taking half, he didn't make the father less? What he took is the asset. What the father is, is the asset. There are many of us like that, that even in what you are calling your best state, God is shocked. That is that it now? That's why I said I was in primary school with my cousins. One time I passed in front of my cousin's class and I didn't know what he did. I don't know if they did that here. They do that here. Okay, he was sleeping in class. So the class teacher said, come out and stand. By the time you stand here, you will not sleep. He stood in front of the class and he had slept standing. Supernatural, superhuman ability. You understand? He stood. Even God is shocked that what ought to be a punishment that will show you that you are in Egypt is what you are saying, "Praise." Why? Because the mind is small. Listen, please listen. I've shown you that that life is contained in a word, the word that I speak. So if you want to see that life in anything, you speak. What about if you want to see death in anything? Speak also, because the power of life and death is on the tongue. If you read, okay, what made Abraham different? It was what God said. When Peter had toiled through the night and didn't catch anything, what did Jesus say? Launch your net to the right. And what happened? He caught fishes. They were too great, so he had to call on that boat. Come help me. Okay, what was the secret? To an average man, the new strategy now is the right, is the right. That's the new route. That's how it is working for people. No, the strategy is not the right because he had tried both the right and the left. The strategy is his word. Fishes will move in the direction he calls. You can't copy it. Hear him. Because one can be rejoicing about the right and yours is the left. That's why people can love you so much and try to give you what God said to them uniquely, and you get offended because you are doing what works for them but it's not working for you. Someone said a statement one time in Manchester, and he said, he said, when you come to UK, he said, it matters who you first meet. He said, what you experience will look like. And I think it's the same thing here. It depends on who gave you the orientation. If the person's entry to the system is care job, they will tell you start from there. Are you seeing how conversations can determine experience? That's why if you want to flourish, find people who have found that life, not those who did mago-mago and hammer. It's not, it's not trial and error. Download Message Bible now, media department will bite you. Download because I need to show them some scriptures. Oh, glory to God. Say loud and clear, I'm not disadvantaged. I'm so angry, I wish I'm here for another one week. I wish we can do this every day for a week. I will still— I will stay. By this time all of you are wearing overall, I'm out. If you tie me, I will cut myself. I'm out of here, man. What? But do you understand that? Say it loud and clear: I am not disadvantaged. Say it again: I'm not disadvantaged. The life of God is at work in me. Say it again: I walk in the fullness of that life. I'm not disadvantaged. I'm not stranded in life. I'm not limited in life. Glory to God! If I can sit with the Lord, he will tell me where to launch. There are times that it looks like everything is crashing down. So let me give you a story. One time I was sick. I didn't understand what was going on. For a long time, I've never had reasons to go to the hospital. I work so hard. In fact, when I go on a trip, those who go with me on that trip break down except me. Maybe David too is very strong because who just go with me, just say, 'This one will have to live in so-and-so city.' One time I became so sick. I just told my wife, I said, hmm, take me to the hospital. I don't think this is going really well. She was shocked to hear that, for him to say that. Okay, because some of us, when we are down, we don't look like it. Imagine me talking and say, please take me to the hospital. So she went inside, got a few things, and I said, wait, God, you sent me to this city now. Let me ask, my PPA is not the hospital, my place of primary assignment. Should I go or not? As I was speaking, just in my spirit, just the eyes of my spirit, like a flash, I just sensed like a great force descended beside me. I said, I'm not going again. God has responded. That night around 12 AM, one of my friends just came and he sensed a leading that he must see me that night. And he kept knocking the gate till we opened the gate and we spent time praying together. The following morning I woke up like a baby. There is a protocol God has ordained for us to live with. We should not die like men or fall like one of the princes. Say it again: I'm full of life. I'm not stranded. I am not confused. Say it again: I'm not confused. I'm not limited. Have you seen people who are confused? They start getting every wrong advice, every wrong thing. Ah, so this one, that's what is working out. Oh wow, this is what I do now. Oh, ah, this one, so this one, if you go through this method, this one will help you change. What? Hear God! That's the secret. Stay in the place of prayer. Stay in the place of prayer. Stay in the place of worship. Stay in the place of the word. Again, I'm asking you, what made Abraham different? The word that God said to him, I will make your name great and make you a blessing. Do you know that there is a blessing on names? And some of you are not even proud of your name. What's your name? It's not a rhetorical question. What's your name? Is that the name you want God to bless? The name you can't even call. What is your name? You didn't get my question. I'm saying, what is your name? Yes. Star. What's your name? What? Tell me your names now. You don't say, "My name is Abisola, my name is Ayoluwa." I am the Femi Lazarus. Again, what is your name? Jesus. Put some respect on that name. Do you understand that? How God anointed Femi Lazarus with the Holy Ghost and power. Put your name there. There's an attitude I need you to call that name. If, listen, if that's the name in another 20, 30 years, people are, they're excited to relate with and say, oh, I know, how do you know? I said, I know. Look at the way you are calling that name. How God anointed Femi Lazarus. With the Holy Ghost and with power. If God says, and he goes about doing good, if I'm supposed to go about, why should the door of nations not open? Is that not in my destiny to go about doing good? Hope you know that. You need visa to Nigeria. If you go and tear your green passport, what Trump is doing will be a little. You want to come to Nigeria, you pay $15,000. Do you understand what I'm saying? America, I'm joking. Femi Lazarus received mail today and I said, "It's play." I'm blessed. If you read Genesis 27, let's— because we need to understand what is the blessing. Isaac told Esau, he said, go get me venison. He said, I want to bless you. Okay, what's her name now? Rebecca heard that. Prepared something else and made it look like venison. We men. And served and gave it to the boy. Because what you are seeing right there is the story of our redemption. Come, Taiwo. Can I use your suit? Yeah. So look at it. Gave that boy the meal she had prepared and said, take it to your father. The boy said, if my father should find out that it's me, Jacob, and not Esau, he will curse me. He said, no, let that curse be on me. That is the only thing that can happen here. Is that you are either blessed or blessed. If there's going to be a curse, I will carry it. Then she took the animal she had killed and put the skin on him. Something died for Jacob to now come in boldly to obtain. On the account of what died and what is clothed with, it is the person It is the voice of Jacob, but the person of what died. I can come boldly before the Father. It is the voice of Femi Lazarus, but Christ died. He took my place so I can take his place before God. The reason why I come boldly is that when I stand here, it is no longer my righteousness, it's the righteousness of Christ. Do you understand that? If you read verse 27 of that, Genesis 27, and the Bible said Isaac smelled the smell of his raiment— what is his raiment? What died?— and said, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field that the Lord has blessed. Wow. No, go to King James now. Oh, you have it now? Good. All right, look at it. He said this is the expectation of the few which the Lord has blessed. What did he say next? Verse 28. Therefore may God give you of the dew from heaven and the fatness of the earth and plenty of grain and wine. Listen, no, please listen. He didn't say may God give America of the dew of heaven and fatness of the earth. He's not giving it to a place, he's giving it to a blessing. It is that that place only experiences it because you came. It's you. That's the reason why Abraham could tell Lot, if you want the right, go. If you want the left, go. If you pick the right, I will go to the left. Because the one who understands the blessing knows the key is not a place, it's the person. Open Heavens is a person. I am saying this because it is important you understand. At that point that the whole world was stranded, there was food in Egypt. Why? Because Joseph was there. If that same Joseph was in what was Jacob. It is Jacob that will have food. The problem is that we, out of envy, sell our Joseph and still have to go and beg where he is. Thank you. I need to say this to you unapologetically. You are not You are not begging. There is none of these countries that all of you are in that would have been built without people of your color. Sela! You are the generation of builders. Systems stand. On your shoulders. I listen, and I'm going to speak from my prophetic place. You may not like what I want to say now, but it's true. Don't forget home. Our labors will be useless if God doesn't send some of you back to begin to build institutions. You have seen how systems can work, so you can replicate it. Please. And let me also beg, don't hate your home country. Don't. If your home country validates you, you succeed anywhere else. At best, retain the identity of that ambassadorial flag. Because when push gets to shove, they will tell you that Adewale is not an American name. Sela. And you feel the world have rules and order. I can show you a scripture. Should I show you? I'll show you. 2 Corinthians 10, let's start from verse 3, Message Translation. When I show you this scripture, I just move on. Read this with your own mouth now. The world is unprincipled. It is dog eat dog out there. The world doesn't fight fair, but we don't live or fight a battle that way. Never have. The world doesn't have principles. At least you have seen with your eyes that just by having your color, eyes can pick you. You go and explain the rest first, later. See, no, I'm a citizen. You explain. When I'm done preaching this kind of message, my flight ticket is ready. And we heard that a storm is coming, I say, Change my flight, bro. Change it to— I was in Winnipeg, -22. I said, I'm out of here. It doesn't— it's not like this in Ijebu. But I'm telling you, we shift from God's word to systems that are sinking. We now will lie and say, no, you need to see how some of us who are in Western world brag and say, this is America. It is planet Earth first. It is this world first. You better have your root on the word. One day everything I'm saying will re-echo in people's ears. That man has been warning for years. Hope you saw that even when Joseph helped Egypt survive, the Bible said a king arose that knew not. It is your own people that won't forget your legacy. History forgets men depending on who writes it. Some of you have extraordinary abilities. Extraordinary calling upon your life, extraordinary graces to establish, to build structures, to build institutions for children, for women, for the less privileged, to build schools, to be in government, to advocate. Don't reduce that grace to 9 to 5. You must know what you are doing for the main time and don't call it your life. Do you understand what I'm saying? I think what I'm teaching is clear. One of the ways God gives you a sign that there's more is that you lose your peace. There's just— people can be celebrating you and say, you just know something is missing, man. It's called the spirit of discontentment. Something is just raging. Oh, there can be more. Something is missing. They celebrate and I know this is not it. No, you, you are not satisfied. That is not— that's not covetousness. It's an alarm in your spirit showing you you were made for more. Do you understand? I want to show you a text. If you function by that life of God, because most times We only understand that life in respect to speaking in tongues, in respect to— oh no, I mean, guys, I pray, and I think an average person who even knows our ministry does not even understand the prayer foundation and the quality of prayer that is going on. You can't preach calmly like this without prayer. You yourself will sleep off. Have you seen where the preacher is the one sleeping? Let me show you a text of the Bible because I'm going to have you pray into this. We're going to read Message translation, Matthew chapter number 11. Oh, thank you, Lord Jesus. We read verse 28, Matthew 11 from verse 28. Come on, say it again: The life of God is at work in me. Say it again: The life of God is at work in me. Nothing dies in my hands. Oh, the life of God is at work in me. Nothing dies in my hands. Oh, the life of God is at work in me. Everything I do work. Nothing dies in my hands. Everywhere I step becomes fruitful. I am not needy. I am not beggarly. I am not stranded. I am not discouraged. I am not defeated. In the name of Jesus, everywhere I go, life moves. Glory to God. I taught you yesterday, how can you finish a confession like that, you can't rejoice? Let me ask you a question. What's your name? Victoria. Are you Nigerian? Okay. If I send you $20,000 now, US dollars, will you be happy? Are you sure? Wait, if I pick my phone now and I use Zelle and I transfer $20,000, at what point will you be happy? Is it when I give you the paper cash or when you see the alert? So the alert is a sign that is there. If you say it and that thing rings in your spirit, that's when joy comes. It is not the point you carry that baby, it's the point that it is confirmed in your spirit. Every time you confess and you don't end it with joy, even you know you didn't receive. I say everywhere I step, I give life. Everywhere I step, I give life. You are not sure. Once you paint that picture and see it, you see yourself not as one who is depending on systems. Do you understand what I'm saying? That's who we are. We have too many defeated people who wrote books to you about victory. I have life. Nothing dies in my hands. I break through effortlessly. Nothing dies in my hands. I am not needy. I am not beggarly. I am not discouraged. I am not defeated. I am life. See, people of God, sit down. I was in one room apartment. Not apartment. There's apartment, there's face my face you, then there's face the world. This one is face alone. Because I feel it. I so ate God's Word in that house that I was almost running mad. One day I went to meet the landlord and I said, Baba, E da ko, Femi, I want to see you. He said, Pastor. I said, sir, sit down. I said, a time will come that some people will come and say they want to video this house and take documentary because I live here. When that time comes, allow them. The man looked at me and looked at me and looked at me. He said, "Mwotigbo." He said, "I've heard. Go." But he was thinking about it. Around December of that same year, he sent them to go and call me. It was an elderly man. He was preparing to take his last picture. You know all those old men with his family. So he now said, "Pastor." That thing you said that time, he said, please go and dress up and join this picture so that when those people come, they will know that you are my son. So if you go to his house now, you see that picture with me looking very slim. Because when that thing is working, you will not be speaking like an average person. If they are not calling you crazy, something is wrong. Means you are speaking at the level of their understanding. They look at you, even those who don't know God, you so aligned. Do you understand? When you talk, you align like you agree. Say, that's why I like you. Something is wrong. Oh, glory to God. Oh, I have the grace to build systems. I have the grace to build organizations. I have the grace to build systems. My hands are for signs and wonders. Nothing dies in these hands. Nothing fails in these hands. Oh, in the name of Jesus, God will use these hands to mold destinies, to build nations, to build systems, to build establishment. Oh, he's trusting me with his work in the land of the living. Oh, glory to God! The life of God is at work in my hands. Oh, life runs through me. I see the invisible, therefore I do the possible. Oh, I'm not limited. Oh, I'm not defeated. Oh, I'm not stranded. Oh, I'm not shut down. Oh, I'm not defeated. Sometimes you're doing just normal things and you see it. You should have some bye-bye moment. You know what bye-bye moment is? Uebas will say that it doesn't matter how much you cure a madman, there will be time he will do pi pi. One time, the mother of one of my boys called me and said, I want to report this boy to you. Said the boy is running mad. As the mother was reporting it to me, the boy sat down there and he was laughing. I said, what did he do? Mother said he will sit down and be talking alone. To himself. The boy was laughing that the person you are talking to is Mata. He was there, he said, that's crazy. Sit down. I was sharing a story with them of madness. They got two mad people in a psychiatric hospital. I wanted to check, are they both fine or who is fine among them now so they can discharge like them. They were psychoanalyzing them. So they drew a car on the board and said, 'Push it.' One got up and started pushing. Ah, they look at that and say, 'This one is crazy.' The other one didn't push, and the doctors were happy that this one have sense. He didn't push the car. Till now. But before we release him to go home, let's ask, because madness will show when you speak to. So they asked him that, why didn't you push that car? He said, when I'm not mad, you drew car on a board, you say I should push it, you didn't draw the key. When a person speak, you will see their level of craziness or sanity. Everyone that hear you talk must know you are mad. When they expect to be crying, I say, no, I can never be defeated. You see me go to a new place And people are— and I would tell them, enjoy this place while you are here, because very soon every chair is occupied. It has never failed. Oh, I have life. Pastor, ah, guy, one time— please sit down, sir— while we moved to Abuja, we were cleaning the floor of the church, and of course I was there with mop, mopping the floor. Were washing and cleaning. And one of our pastors just broke out in tears. Ah, I said, David, what happened? He said, no, no, he said, this church is not even up to the size of the altar of where we are coming from. I looked at him, that's why you are crying. Everything that has life grows. As long as there's life, you may enter a place and ask God, is there life? That's why you cannot successfully look down on the person of the spirit. There is hope for a tree even when it is God now. Even when the storm works old and the roots are very dry, at the scent of water, you'll be amazed that this same place where seated like this, in no time they will tell you, please come early, because God is so moving there, people are peeping from the door and trying to— I'm telling you. But one of the ways it happens is not just enough that you see it, you must say it, because that's where you will release that life through those words. You are trusting God for the fruit of the womb, but you are calling forth your babies. When we used to put The story is online. Now it's on our library on our app. You can download it. And one of the women I interviewed, they waited on God for a while for a child. She will go home and enter the room that they separated for their baby and begin to call the baby that they don't have yet. I said, what are you doing there? Is that not madness? But that's what brought the— There is a story we are going to put out either next week or so. A woman that the— while she was pregnant, the womb ruptured and the baby came out of the womb. Right inside. She died and came back alive. You look at people and you wonder, how did you survive this? In 1999, there was an event, an issue that happened in Ife, OAU campus. The story might be there online. Online. Story of a young activist called Africa. He was killed, brutally murdered. But that's the story people know. When they did that thing, and I think that was at Awu, when they about to enter the room where he was, there was a guy sleeping at the door. Who was sleeping at the door because there was heat. So he just off his shirt and just laid down at the door on the bench there. When those cultist guys saw him, they shot the guy. The video is on, you can see documentary, about 9 times. When they were able to resuscitate him in the hospital, the first thing he said, I can't die like this. The reason why some Christians fall to cheaply to the hands of— is because they've not settled it with what— even Jesus never spoke about his death without speaking about his resurrection. That's why I'm leading you to say it: I have life. I can't die like men. I can't fall like one of the princes. I can't die like men. I can't fall like one of the princes. Everything I do works. Do you understand what I'm saying? Everywhere I touch, I possess. Good test. I'm not. That's what happened. If you can look at this scripture, are you tired? Every time I read that, who say no? Is the Bible I'm reading? Worn out, burned out on religion. Come to me, get away with me, and you will recover your what? Life. I will show you how to take a real rest. Look at verse 29 quickly. Walk with me and walk with me. Watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythm of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. It is unforced. Pastor, you don't have to sweat for this place to be filled. You just have to hear. Just one move of God here can gather the entire city. Church doesn't grow through gimmicks. The secret of church growth is revival. When God moves, he suspends strategy. You can learn that later when it comes to consolidation phase, but nothing gathers the crowd like his fire. I knew early I don't have charisma. Ah, I never move. I don't. You will have to give me 20 bottles of water. I can't do it. If I should start saying, I heard God, my wife will call. She will call, babe, what's going on? And by the time I Those who do it have grace. I discovered early I don't have. So if you don't anoint this gentleness, I'm finished. You don't have to be like anyone to be lifted. That same state can carry it. The secret is not in looking like, it's you. It's your vessel that he bless. He calls it the unforced rhythm of grace. It's rhythmic. It's not— you're not having to force it. You're not having to. I have a friend amongst all of us that are friends. He's the best dressed. He dresses very well. If we go for event, he will always— it has never happened, but he will be the one that will give the best dress. One time— oh yes, people like me like this. One time he was dating a girl, we went to go and see the girl. One time, I say, he says, babe lives in my side. I say, ah, let's go. So we drove there. Oh, it looked so prim and proper. The girls are saying, ah, ah, this your shoe now, this your, this your, ah, what kind of shirt is this? I was looking, I say, ah, this one is forced, redeem of no grace. Which one? Me to you, I'm saying the guy tried. Many of you don't believe this one that you have no mind now say what's this? What's name of this brand? Name your name is not Dangote! You are not Ibadan! You are talking like this— This one is fff— You are giving some Somebody, 80 missed call, they don't like you. You have— it's forced. But you know, our nature believes that if it is not difficult, it is not good. Don't marry somebody who will be reminding you. That they only managed you. Every day they will keep saying, 'But you know, I had a better option. I just chose you.' You will cry, and it will be good for you because you saw it. Huh? Don't marry a fool. A fool can have parks and a fool can have pot belly. Foolishness doesn't know physics. But if a fool speaks, as long as you are not a fool, you will know. Because we say when people speak, you know who they are. It matters who is trying to know. You can be hearing what will kill you and say, that's it, man, I like them young and wild. Did they wild you out? Say it again: unforced rhythm of grace. Say it again: unforced rhythm of grace. Oh, I won't have to sweat, I won't have to toil, I just have to follow the Holy Spirit and his life becomes obvious in everything that I do. I follow from today the pattern of the unforced rhythm of grace. Glory to God. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Before I pray for you, Pastor, something happened years ago in Ghana. Archbishop Duncan-Williams hosted Archbishop Benson Daoussa. Archbishop Benson Daoussa was Archbishop Duncan-Williams' spiritual father. The person who drove Archbishop Benson Idahosa was Archbishop Dag Edward Mills. Archbishop Dag Edward Mills was a young minister in town who had the honor to drive this father of faith, touching the world across Africa and all over the world. While he was driving Archbishop Benson Idahosa on the last day of the meeting to his hotel, Archbishop Duncan Williams said, ah, Papa, our church is in this town and I just wish you can pray for us. But Archbishop Duncan Williams, or em, em, daigawadmi, smartly drove him through the route of their church and said so as they were getting close. So Archbishop said, ah, where's your church? He said, we are just entering the street. He said, go there and park. Our Bishop came out with his abada, entered the church and went to the altar and lay hands there. Church begin to grow. He said by the following year they had more than 300 new branches. Everything that has life Can I pray for you, sir? Please stay on the keyboard for us, my friend. And your dear wife, please come. Father, I want to thank you in the name of Jesus and ask that this ministry will carry the touch of what you're doing in the last days. It will be the arrowhead of your move, the word of the season. What you're doing across nations will rest on this ministry. The anointing, the freshness for the new face, rests on you. Church grow. Amen. Let freshness, grace rest upon you. Amen.

That there is an aspect of your life that needs to grow, I speak by the power in the name of Jesus, life be.

Every case of azoospermia is nullified. Amen. Fibroid tumors dissolved. Amen. I don't know who this person is as a family member, intimate person who is down with stroke. I cast out that spirit. Get out! From this moment going forward, you will never have to look up to men to be fine. Hear the word of the Lord. In Exodus 19, he spoke about the Israelites. He said, how I bear you on eagle's wings. From today, you are carried on the wings of grace. Where there's been dryness, let there be new release. Please look up, everybody. Look up. God's instruction does not have to be dramatic. That woman, her husband died, her two sons, a creditor was going to come carry them. That was when she cried to Elisha. He said, do you have pots? He said, go and borrow vessels. If she had cried earlier, the man won't die. But now that she's crying out now, the grace of God came and saved the family. Not just that, they saved the entire One instruction from God sometimes is all it takes. May your ears begin to hear. May your eyes begin to see.
