In this sermon delivered at the LIBRATION CONFERENCE 2024, Femi Lazarus exhorts listeners to pursue spiritual breakthrough as a prerequisite for physical prosperity, emphasizing that open heavens produce different outcomes than closed heavens. He warns against complacency, urging believers to become angry at recurring negative patterns—particularly a personal anecdote of multiple family members dying at age 39—as a catalyst for declaring judgment on generational strongmen that hinder rise. Lazarus offers specific prayer points for deliverance from embarrassing debt, generational curses, and strongholds, and promises that testimonies of breakthrough will follow. The message blends prophetic proclamation, urgent exhortation, and personal testimony to motivate decisive prayer and spiritual warfare.

Let's sit down for a while. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. How can there be A family that nobody's rising from. They are working, laboring, doing everything they should do. Let me say this to you: nobody breaks through in the physical unless they are broken through in the spirit. Tonight You break through in the spirit tonight. You break through in the spirit. I'm trying to stay with my teaching, but God is bringing things. So somebody is coming out of embarrassing indebtedness, kind of debt that doesn't make sense. Seeing your brother-in-law trying to disgrace you, depth here and there. You are coming out, you are coming out. Now listen to what I'm saying. Nothing is really difficult. It only matters whether you are under open heavens or closed heavens. The moment your heaven is opened, the same thing will produce different results. The same thing, the same thing. It is not of him that will it, nor of him that run it, but of God that shows mercy. Somebody's heaven is opening up. Somebody's heaven is opening up. Now, before this meeting is over Femi Lazarus. Somebody's going to receive good news. Now hold on, sit down. I know that sounds casual, but you will hear the testimony, okay? Now listen, there are things that will never change until you get angry. Is God powerful? Yes. But how can you know that God has blessed you with all that pertains to life and godliness, and yet you are not seeing it? You pray, he has released it. There are people that God has released their future partner for the past 5 years, and, and they say, okay, I'm just there trusting God, but he has released it. There are dimensions you will never see. Until you are hungry to say enough is enough. Is anybody here saying enough is enough? Is there anybody who is hungry enough to say enough is enough? 2011, went to bury one of my senior pastors, Eupreo. This man is a prayer warrior. Fast together, marathon prayer, marathon fasting. She was 39, she was not married. A man just came to her life, they've done introduction, about to settle down. They drove on a long journey. No accident. They had a flat tire. They parked to repair the tire. Then another car, the brake failed and came to clear where she was seated. We went to bury her at— I don't want to mention the place. I was still holding my tears. Then the firstborn of the family came. And said, look at this grave, that's the second born, died at 39. Look at this grave, that's the third born, 39. Look at this grave, that at this, 39. She is the fourth person at 39. I got angry. When you see patterns coming, don't wait till you are a casualty before you get angry. Don't, don't wait till you are imprisoned. If you play with the devil, it will mess you up and it will, it will waste you. I want to give you 2 minutes. Is there someone here who is listening to what I'm saying? I don't know where this is coming from, but I'm angry. I sense the need to declare judgment. Are you following what I'm saying here? But before that will happen You, for whom we want to declare the judgment, maybe you are not even angry enough, but I want to give you a prayer point. Every strongman in my lineage that has vowed that nobody will rise, judge them now. Listen, no, hold up, listen to what I'm saying. There is a way you pray.
