PROPHETIC PRAYER CONTACT || 26TH FEBRUARY
The video records a live worship and prophetic prayer service led by Apostle Femi Lazarus and his team. It opens with exuberant worship chants calling on Jesus, followed by a gratitude segment where the speaker shares a personal story of thankfulness. The core teaching centers on the "consciousness of the blessing," using Psalms 1, Matthew 7, Ephesians 1, and Isaiah 65 to argue that believers must be aware of their inherited spiritual blessings, which manifest as happiness, prosperity, and protection. The speaker distinguishes biblical joy (a constant divine state) from fleeting happiness, urging the congregation to repeatedly declare affirmations such as "I am blessed, happy, prosperous, enviable." He emphasizes that God answers prayers, citing Matthew 7:7‑8 and 2 Chronicles 7, and leads an extended prayer pronouncing healing for various illnesses, deliverance from danger, and financial breakthrough. A teaching on "real rest" (Matt 11:28) follows, encouraging listeners to seek God’s voice and obey His instructions. The service includes a testimonial segment where members recount miracles of childbirth, healing, job promotion, and fire rescue. The session concludes with promotion of an upcoming Holy Ghost Experience event at Light Place Event Center, a call for video testimonies, and an announcement of an upcoming U.S. tour. The overall tone is highly enthusiastic, persuasive, and devotional, aiming to inspire faith, declare blessings, and mobilize participation in future events.

Can we lift our voices this morning? Wherever you are, rise on your feet, bless the name of the Lord. Just give him thanks for it's a new day and a new season. Father, we are grateful. Thank you, thank you, thank you for giving us the strength to be here again this morning. We bless your name, we bless your name, we give you praise. Come on, go ahead and bless him. Give God thanks, give God thanks. He's the giver of life, the giver of strength. Thank you, thank you, because all things were made by you and without you was not anything made that was made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in darkness, and darkness cannot comprehend it. Lord, we give you praise. Come on, go ahead and bless his name. Don't stay quiet. Thank him, thank him for a new season. Thank him because everything is about to become new. Thank you, thank you for the blessing. Thank you, thank you for your gracious For your mindfulness of us, we say thank you. For the things that you do in our midst, we say thank you. Lord, we bless you. Oh yes, oh yes, come on, lift your voice, let it rise this morning. Lord, we say thank you, thank you, thank you. Lord, we give you praise. Lord, we give you praise. We give you praise. And we give you glory. Father, we say thank you, for in Jesus' mighty name we are still giving thanks. You know, sometimes you may feel, um, that your case is worse, or you are in a state where nobody else can relate. But sometimes it takes exposure to know that where you are even is a prayer point. For someone else. I remember many years ago, I was young and I was, you know, um, complaining to someone that I needed, you know, new set of shoes. My other brother, I was complaining to him just walking because we were in the market, and I was complaining out of the fact that I felt nobody was getting this for me. And somehow God needed to teach me something. The moment I turned to my side, I saw a man that had no legs and he was there asking for alms. Nobody taught me, I started giving thanks. You see that now, that someone— if someone can have what you have, they'll be more than grateful. Sometimes it takes you seeing that live and direct, you know, to see that play out to really be thankful. I want us to lift our voice and be specific in your thanksgiving this morning. Thank him for what he has done and say, Father, thank you for your graciousness, for mercy. Thank you for even the light you are bringing to me in this season. Thank you. Oh, come on, lift your voice and thank him. Oh, thank you, Jesus. Mande koradaba shatakapande ro siyadaba. Father, we say thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. Even if we have lost some things, it is because of you that we have not lost all. Thank you. We have reasons to say thank you. We have every reason to say thank you. Come on, lift your voice and say thank you. There is someone here that needs to say thank you. It's been long you said thank you. Say it. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, thank you, thank you. It may not be the best possible things happening around you currently, but say thank you, Jesus. Thank you. Oh, thank you for your goodness and your mercies that endures forever. Lord, we say thank you. We give you praise. Oh yes. Mande koroko shendero sidaba. Father, we say thank you. Thank you, Jesus. We give you praise. Oh yes, we bless your name. We bless your name. Oh, we bless your name. We bless your name. In Jesus' mighty name we have prayed. Hallelujah. Yesterday we had a a word in Doreen Ward Emartion about the consciousness of the blessing. And that was more like a summary, you know, in the little way of, you know, what we have been dealing with. Because it is important that the consciousness itself stays. The consciousness stays. And let me say this, that God He is making you conscious of the blessing also so that you can partner with him. Hey, did you get what I said? The consciousness of the blessing is not just to remain with you. God does nothing to remain with a man. God is generational in his thinking. He's always thinking of others through a person, that through Adam, you see, the whole world got into sin. But through Jesus, oh my goodness, we will stand boldly as the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. The world will be free from sin, from guilt, from condemnation through one man. So when God sees you as a man, he's seen beyond you. I get what I'm saying? So the moment you get conscious of the blessing, it tells you one thing, that you're succeed even after you. What you are going to give to them first, the beginning of an inheritance, is the consciousness of the blessing. Just the same way there are people and there are families that, you see, the moment you are born there, right from an early age, they start bringing to your consciousness the curses in the family, the things that are not great, the afflictions that has been on them. Some they will say, oh, we fought wars in the year 18 or 17 or 16, and you see there was a curse. And you will hear those stories, those tales. But now from your own lineage, you would have to now tell your children, oh, at this point in my life, I got into covenant with the Lord, and God said said this about me and the seed after me.
Do you get what I'm saying?
So it is to the end that you also become a blessing to others. I want to show us the scripture this morning, Psalms chapter 1, and I would love if it could be, you know, displayed in the Amplified Version. Psalms 1, Psalms 1, so that you can see your state as a blessed man. Say it again this morning: I'm blessed. Hey, say it with consciousness. I am blessed. Psalms 1, and I'm in Amplified. Can it, can it, can it be on the screen? Yeah. Now let's read together. I want to go. Blessed. Now it goes about to describe who a blessed man is. Now, who is a blessed man? He's happy. Happiness. You know, for a while we talk about the joy of the spirit and that our joy is not happiness, which is true. Joy is not dependent on things. Happiness is, right? Hey, talk to me. Happiness is— if I transfer a million dollars to your account, would you be happy? Are you sure? Are you sure? What exactly can make you happy today?
Day.
If you get an alert, there's going to be happiness, but that happiness in itself is a function of the blessing. God wants you to— leave it there. God wants you to be happy. Say, God wants me to be happy. Say it again. God wants me to be happy.
God wants me to be happy.
Your work with God is not serious because you always cry and because you are always sad. You know, there was a time, you know, when we're still, um, in Ife then, there was this lady that would come to church every Sunday, and one of our characteristics is tears. One song like this, she's in tears. Any song, it does not matter who is singing it. So it's not even a way to test whether you are anointed or not. Just sing it. To make it worse, sing a song that has to do with if I die or live. The girl is gone. The tears will start rolling. You preach a sermon, even that the sermon is— if it is on joy, she will not rejoice. She will just stay there. But you preach a sermon on revival, tears will flow, flow effortlessly.
One day I have to tell her that, stop, stop crying.
Because you see, in the presence of God, there is what? There is fullness of joy. So people think it is revival when you are always sad. In fact, that sadness is the reason why you will not receive from the Lord. You're not getting what I'm saying this morning? Are we together? So the Bible describes a blessed man that this man is happy. So part of the blessing is that you have your desires met. The blessing comes to make your desires, you know, they are brought to you. It meets your desires, that in turn brings happiness. That is, there is joy that whether it comes or it doesn't come, I am joyful. But happiness is not something that you get until something comes. Are we together? Joy is a state as long as you are a child of God. The kingdom of God is in you, right? And the kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness, peace, and joy. That operating system is already installed in the believer, so he is a joyful being. Are we together? Come rain, come shine, the believer is joyful. But happiness depends on the things that are happening. A believer can be gloomy, you see, can look not really happy cannot be happy but joyful. Are you getting what I'm saying this morning? Are we together? So happiness is that state. So in the blessing, your desires are also met. That is one characteristic of the blessing. It comes and makes you happy. You are a happy creature, a happy being. Say, I'm happy. Say it again, I'm happy. Hallelujah. Now he says Fortunate. Sometimes the way to know the meaning of a thing is to know the opposite. Do you know what it means to be unfortunate? If somebody comes and say you are fortunate, you know, you may not see it as waiting. But if somebody says, may you be un— then you owe the person, what's your problem? What have I done to you this morning? You'll be fortunate fortunate. That's, that's part of the blessing. A fortunate man. He goes on to say prosperous and what? Enviable. It means you'll be the envy of others. That's a blessed man. That's a blessed man. That's a blessed man. Say it again, I'm blessed. Oh, come on, go ahead and say I'm blessed. Say it again, I'm blessed. And this morning I'm praying for as many as are under the the sound of my voice, whatever God needs to do this day that makes you get into the state of happiness, it is done in the name of Jesus. Be it prosperity, be it finances, be it health-wise, be it any other way that has taken happiness away from you. Father, in the name that is above all names, I ask that it is done today in the name of Jesus. Now you see, a man cannot hide happiness. When he's happy, everyone around him knows he's happy. And don't tell me God does not want us to be happy. You can take it off. Don't tell me God does not want you to be happy. In fact, the Bible says that we should pray until your joy is full. He says, idatho, you have not received anything because you have not asked. Should I shock you? One of the things God loves to do is to answer prayers. God loves to answer prayers, and that must be your consciousness, that God wants to answer my prayer. How he wants to answer it is what you may not know. But let it first be settled that what God wants to—
what?
Answer prayers. God, that is his duty. God is responsible. He's a father that is responsible. Now let me show you a scripture. Matthew 7. Matthew 7. Hey, say I'm blessed again. It must settle in your consciousness. Say, I am blessed. Now Matthew 7, and from verse 7, it says, ask and it shall be given you. Not it me. Do you get what I'm saying? Ask and keep on asking, and it will— the King James says it shall. That's is a very, very assertive and affirmative word. When I say I shall give you, you know, for me to even use shall, it means it's serious. It means it is certain. You can take it to the bank. Ask and it shall be given. Seek and ye shall find. That's God's promise. He goes on in Luke saying that who is that father that love his child? That when he asks for what, um, an egg, will give him what, a serpent, or that he asks for bread, will give him a stone. Whenever you ask, the mindset first is that God wants to answer. He says he that comes to him must first believe that he is, and that he is a, what, um, is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. So God is in the in the business of answering prayers, and that's why I'm sure that God is going to answer your prayers. I said he's going to answer your prayers because we're going to pray this morning. But I want that consciousness to first be there that God wants to answer your prayers. Oh, God wants to answer your prayers. I said God wants to answer your prayers. He will answer your prayers. Can we lift our voice this morning and pray? Now I want you to first confess and say, Lord, I know you answer prayers, and you answer my prayers. You hear my voice. And go ahead and begin to speak words to him and lift up your voice and pray. Now say that thing to the Lord, the thing you are trusting him for. Begin to speak it. Say to the Lord, say to the Lord this morning, bring forward your petitions, the cries of your heart upon this altar this morning. Come on, go ahead this morning and pray. Make your request known unto the Lord with prayers and supplications. Oh yes, he says, O thou that hearest prayers, unto thee shall all flesh come. O thou that hearest prayers, unto thee shall all flesh come. Come on, go ahead and ask the Lord. Ask the Lord. You have not received because you have not asked. Ask that your joy may be full. Come on, go ahead this morning. Oh yes, Mande Koradaba. Oh yes, oh yes, go ahead, go ahead and ask the Lord. Ask him for things. Oh yes, not small things. Ask him for big things. Ask him for big things! Ask him for big things! Ask him for big things! Ask him for big things! Go ahead and ask the Lord for things this morning. Lord, we ask you for things. Asking for children? Asking for a partner? Ask him, ask him, asking— go ahead and ask the Lord. Ask the Lord. Oh, ask the Lord, ask the Lord, ask the Lord. Ask him, ask him. Rande koradaba kosti kabaa. Oh yes, for in Jesus' mighty name we are still praying. Now I've met, you know, there was someone. Have you realized that there are times that God shows up when you get to the point in prayer that you are at that point where, God, if you don't show up, I'm going to fish him. There are points where, you know, it's like you are broken and you just get to make that one last prayer and say, Father, have mercy, and he shows up. The Bible says in 2 Chronicles 7, it says if my people which are called by my name shall humble themselves and what? Pray. God was not happy with them at this point, and they were going through a lot. And God was saying, all I need to step in to this situation is that what? They will just open their mouth and pray. You know, one of the ways the devil robs people is that it will try to bring different things that will make you feel like God does not want to hear your prayer, or that I'm too, I'm too gone away from God for him to even hear my prayer, that there is nothing I can say to God that will make him listen at this point. Are you aware that there are people that when they are trying to do things otherwise, In fact, someone can go to his closet, lock himself up, maybe receiving a call, tells a lie and believes that God heard that lie and God is going to punish them for that lie. But the moment they get into that closet and pray, they don't believe that it is passing their heads. Are you seeing consciousness? But if my people that are called by my name shall humble themselves and pray, He says, I will hear from heaven, I will eat their land. I want you to rise up on your feet this morning. Rise up on your feet in that consciousness. Make your request known to the Lord this morning. Come on, go ahead, make your request known to the Lord this morning. Pray, pray your own prayers. Some of you will need to pray prayers in anticipation for the Holy Ghost experience and say, Father, These are the things I'm trusting you for. Lift your voice, lift your voice, lift your voice and pray. Oh yes, lift your voice and pray, lift your voice and pray. Mande kara Dios, lende korada bande ko sidagaba, mambronde kezo degebo sidagaba. Pray, pray, pray, pray, pray, pray. Ask the Lord Ask him, ask him, ask him. Make your request known this morning. Make your request known. Make it known, make it known, make it known, make it known. Let him hear your voice. Oh Jesus, oh Jesus, oh Jesus. Ask him, ask him, ask him, ask him. Ask the Lord in Jesus' Mighty name we have prayed. In Jesus' mighty name we have prayed. All right, Ephesians chapter 1 and verse 3, it says, blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ. God is not about to bless you. The Bible says he hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in Christ. You are not about to step into the blessing, you are blessed already. Only if you can have even half of this consciousness, then you will walk triumphantly. God is not about to engineer. In fact, he says all spiritual blessings. It means that there is nothing new as a spiritual blessing that God is still giving to us on the earth. Are you guys getting what I'm saying? There is nothing new that is a blessing spiritually that God is delivering to the saints. He has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ. Say it again. Say, I'm blessed. Say, I am blessed and I know it. I walk in the consciousness of the blessing. You want to walk around this morning and declare it. I am blessed, I am blessed, I am blessed. That's how he settles. I am blessed, I am blessed, I am blessed. I am not lacking anything that a blessed man should have. I am happy, I am fortunate, I am prosperous. I am enviable. Oh yes, I am blessed. Oh yes, I am blessed. I am blessed and I am conscious of it. I am blessed. Oh, come on, go ahead and decree and declare. I am blessed. I am blessed. Oh yes, mande korada basia. Let the korada bande kosa. I am blessed and I walk in that consciousness. I am blessed. I am blessed. Nothing dies in my hands. Oh yes, I am blessed. Amen. In Jesus' mighty name we are praying. You see, that is your state whether you know it or not. You know, yesterday I established about Esau and Jacob. I know that this guy called Esau was blessed, but he did not know. And at the end of the day, he was manifesting the result of a blessed man. Are we together? When Jacob met him, he was happy, he was fortunate, he was enviable, and he was prosperous. He was a blessed man already. But Jacob himself was not happy. He was just mourning. He wasn't happy. He didn't look like one that was fortunate. He— there was nothing to be envious about him. He had to even stay in the land of famine. The same thing that came upon his fathers that made them turn famine to a place of surplus, he had to migrate. Are you getting what I'm saying? Because the consciousness was not sitting The consciousness. Let me show you a scripture now. I want you never to lose sight of this. It doesn't matter what happens around, have that consciousness. I am blessed. Oh yes, I am blessed. I am blessed. Now Isaiah 65 and verse 8. Now please follow the scripture. Let me show you this. Isaiah 65 And verse 8, now it says, thus saith the Lord, as the new wine is found in the cluster and one seeth it, what? Destroy it not. Why? For a blessing is in it. Hey, do you see that? Are you guys seeing what I'm saying? That they found that cluster, the new wine, and one said, destroy it not, for a blessing is in it. It means one of the things the blessing does is to keep you from destruction. That is where others get into and they fall into the pit. Your own case is different. Your case is different. You are not a victim. You are a victor. You are not a victim. You are not hopeless. It may look like it, but that is not it. What you are seeing around you is not what exactly— who you are exactly. It is not your real state.
This—
what the word of God is saying is who you are. And what the word of God is saying is what? That you are blessed. You are fortunate. You might have had experiences that prove to you otherwise. But you must know that even when others are going to go and are going to have, you know, um, a crash in the plane, they're going to have accident, not me, because there is a blessing on my life. He says, destroy it not, for there is a blessing in it. Destroy it not, for there is a blessing in it. I want you to go ahead and say, Lord, I cannot be destroyed.' Now go ahead and confess it! 'I cannot be destroyed because I carry THE BLESSING!' Oh yes—'I cannot be destroyed for I carried THE BLESSING!' Yes—I carryingTHEBLESSENG... I CARRY THE BLESSING!! I COMMAND THE RESULTS OF THE BLESSING!!! I carrytheblessing..., I caryetheblesseng!, I carrythe blessing!!!! O YES!!!!! I cannot be destroyed; I Carry The Blessing. Oh, come on, go ahead and sink it in your consciousness. Let it rest. Mande koradaba stegaba. I carry the blessing. The blessing is upon my life. The blessing is upon my life. The blessing is upon my life. The blessing is upon my life. The blessing is upon my life. Mande koradaba stegaba. Redeko sidebo shadaba. The blessing is upon my life in Jesus' mighty name, we are praying. Now you see, the same way healing is a package in the blessing, healing is a package in the blessing, and you need to insist that that which God has done is made manifest physically. You know, Jesus will meet people. Now listen, Jesus meets people, cripple, lame, and the first thing he says is, take your bed and walk. Not saying be made whole. Are you getting what I'm saying? That's why I said the blessing is consciousness activating. It activates your consciousness. Eh, you're not getting what I'm saying. The blessing activates your consciousness to a reality. That Jesus will look at a crippled man and say, "Rise up, take your bed and walk," and that immediately sets his consciousness. It tells you that be healed. Most times people need to just hear it. The healing is already done, but their consciousness needs to be shifted and adjusted to that reality. And this morning I pronounce and I speak the word of blessing for everyone here under the sound of my voice. You are battling with one case, one condition or the other. I speak the word into your life: be healed in the name of Jesus. I speak for from every situation, be it cancer, fibroid, malaria, stroke, any condition that the doctors have condemned you to. This morning, rise up, for you are made whole in the name of Jesus. Even if others that you have seen have lost their lives because of this sickness. Your case is different. Your case is different. Your case is different in the name of Jesus. You are not going to die in that affliction. You are not going to die with that sickness in the name of Jesus. Rise up and walk. I speak the word of blessing unto you this morning. You are made whole. Oh yes, you are free. You are free. You are free, you are free in the name of Jesus. Now you see, wherever you are, take the step of faith. Rise up, it is gone. Oh yes, sickness is gone, sickness is gone. And peradventure there's someone beside you that needs the healing power of God, I tell you, lay your hands on that person and I speak over you, rise up and walk in the name of Jesus. You that is on the sick bed, the, the doctors have condemned you to the bed. This morning I speak into your life, every bone, every fiber in that body receive strength now in the name of Jesus. You are free, you are free in the name of Jesus. Oh yes, can we just pray in the Holy Ghost this morning? Now take a step of faith, rise up, rise up. Rise up, do what you could not do before. Oh yes, mande kadan barado si adaba. Oh yes, do what you cannot do before. Oh, radaba ko staba. Every condition, every condition that has made you live your life in a way that is not pleasing and convenient, I speak the word this morning. By the grace upon this altar, I speak forth the word of healing unto you. Be healed in the name of Jesus! Be set free in the name of Jesus! Jesus said, look at this woman, the daughter of Abraham, whom the devil has held bound these years. Ought she not to be made whole? It does not matter how long you have stayed in that condition. This morning marks the end. In the name of Jesus. Get out of the place of despair. I hear that in my spirit. There is someone, you are in the place of hopelessness, hopelessness, hopelessness. You don't have hope. Peradventure you are in debt, debt, and has made you not want to even live another day because the burden is too much. Father, in the name that is above every other name, I speak to this condition. You are free in the name of Jesus. Amen. You are free in the name of Jesus. Amen. Oh yes, you are free, you are free, you are free, and so shall it be in the name of Jesus. Now let me show you another scripture. Give me in the Amplified. Matthew, Matthew Chapter 11 and verse 28. Oh, Radhe Krsna. Can we pray in the Holy Ghost? Pray in the Holy Ghost. Mande kabara do si agaba. Oh Jesus. Matthew 11 and verse 28 in the Amplified. Or Message rather. Message. Oh yes. Mande ro ko si da ga ba shi da ga ba. Rande kosha. He says, are you tired, worn out, burned out on religion? Come to me, get away with me. You will recover your life. I will show you how to take real rest. There is something called real rest, the same way the Bible says about peace. That I will give not as the world giveth. Are you with me? There is a peace that the world gives, but there is another kind of peace that passes all understanding. Have you, have you ever been there? That there are, there is what seems like storm around you, but in that storm, in the midst of that storm, there is a peace that you cannot explain.. There is a joy that you cannot explain. That's how— there is a rest that God himself gives. Not the one that you are operating from a point of anxiety. It is real. It is real, and it is from the Lord. I have decreed and I declare into someone's life, you will enjoy the real rest of the Lord in the name of Jesus. Enough of toiling, enough of struggle. Enough of running from pillar to post. The Lord himself grant you rest in the name of Jesus. Amen. You operate from the place of rest in the name of Jesus. You have toiled all night and caught nothing. Today I decree you begin to function from the place of of instructions in the name of Jesus. Instructions that will birth rest is your portion in the name of Jesus. Father, I decree and I declare whatever family listening this morning where it's been long that they've known joy, true joy, it's been long that there has been news that is like cold water to a I ask, Father, that there is a turnaround this morning in the name of Jesus. A news comes to you that gives you the joy unspeakable, full of glory, in the name of Jesus. It is done in the name of Jesus. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord. God's desire is that you enjoy the real rest of the Lord. Somebody say, 'Real rest.' The real rest, not the one that you are, you are faking it, you know, suffering and smiling, trying to just be happy. And that's why you must learn to be vulnerable before the Lord. God does not expect you to be a Superman. You see, when you get to the place of prayer, it's not a place to go and look for bogus English that even God does not understand. You get words that are so vague that even you are confused at the end of the day and say, God, what are you even saying? You are real. You are real. And say, Father— you see, faith does not deny reality. It just brings a superior pure perspective to what reality is. That is, yes, I may be feeling sick, but I am more conscious that there is a power to make whole. Yeah, are we getting what I'm saying? That we come before the Lord and there is realness. The moment there is that brokenness and genuineness, then God himself steps in. One of the ways you can get real rest is when have access to the voice and the instructions of God. A man that does not hear from the Lord will struggle. A man that does not have access to the voice of God will struggle. And let me say this now, listen, don't let anything or anyone take away your place of intimacy. Master that culture, master it. Don't just come and— you see, Apostle has been talking to us about partnership. Don't just make God a one-time thing that you come when you have needs, and you see, when everything is settled, we don't see you. God answers your prayer in the Holy Ghost experience, the next time we see you is maybe crossover service. You just go and, you know, you know, somebody was talking to me yesterday and I had to ask him a question. He said, oh, I was doing well God, I was doing fine and you see, um, something just changed. And I asked the question, I said, what happened? You will find out that God is committed, you see, to his covenant, his own part. But there are principles, there are principles that govern his commitment. As long as you do this, this is my own part. Are you getting what I'm saying? Hey, are you getting what I'm saying? God is not what you run to that, oh, it's now time to get married. You that have not asked God for the school to go to, you've not asked God for what again? For the location. You are now saying, God showed me a vision, God showed me this. What has not been a culture from the beginning cannot start. You have to first go through that process and get it there. If you are at the point where you have intimacy and your walk with God, trade it for nothing, because the real rest will come from the instructions of the Lord. Oh yes, the instructions of the Lord. And God is so gracious that he has made possible that no one should have an excuse for not hearing from him. God has made it possible that you can either hear from him by a still small voice. Sometimes it's just even peace and you know God is here. You're about to make a decision and there is trouble in your spirit, you can tell that God is not in this thing. Or there is peace, you don't understand, you don't like the thing, but there is just peace. Flowing, a gusher of peace. You may not hear the voice because that's another way. You may— you see, the Bible says in Job that, you see, God has visited man in dreams, in visions, in audible voice, but still man does not understand. So there are different ways, more than 12 ways. Sometimes it's even Perception. You just smell and know that this is what I'm supposed to do because God wants to be heard. Somebody say, God wants to be heard. Come on, say, God wants to be heard. God wants you to hear him, and that's why you make your request. Now you go to the Lord inquiring, Father, I want to have rest. I'm done doing it by myself. I'm done carrying out everything I have done by head knowledge. You know how you got to where you got to. There is nothing divine about your story. That's not the life that God wants you to live. There must be an interruption, a day that you didn't know but God said, do it like this, and it brought that increase. That's the life of a believer. The voice of God, access to that voice, access to that voice. That's the voice that comes commands the blessing, that commands the blessing. It shows you where to go and what to do. That God has told you what to do is one thing. Many of us run after we hear what to do, but we don't wait for the instruction of how to do what God has told us to do. The instruction of how to do what, what God has told us to do. So God can tell David that, see, this is my promise for you. You're going to get to the throne and become the king, but how that will happen is in my own power. Yes, you will have access someday to kill the one that is sitting on the throne and that is delaying you from getting there, but it is not my own— in my own ways for you to kill him because he's still my anointed. It would have just made sense for David to have just stabbed Saul. I mean, I'm praying for the throne, right? And now I— because this guy too, if he had met me, he would have killed me. So it is just, just— but because a man has now stayed to understand the voice, the Bible says God smote his heart. God didn't say a word, but that smiting was enough to let David know that the interpretation of this is that you will touch not my anointed. Are you getting what I'm saying? And do my prophet no harm. It is enough. It is enough to know. Sometimes you will feel restrained. The reason why many people get into trouble is that they had restraint for certain things, but they still went ahead. God was telling you, red flag, red flag, that guy will beat you, will beat you. But because he's handsome, you followed. You followed, you followed. Now your head is not balanced because, you know, one side is— now you are telling me that I'm gonna check my former picture because this is not how I used to be because one eye is now bigger or you have lost some teeth. When you smile now, we are not sure. You're not sure? Oh, come on, go ahead, say again. I am blessed. I carry the blessing. Say I am happy. Oh, say it very well. I'm happy. I am fortunate. I am to be envied. And I am prosperous. Say it in 1 minute. I'm blessed. I'm blessed. I'm blessed. I'm blessed. I'm blessed. I'm blessed. I'm blessed. I'm blessed. I'm blessed. In Jesus' mighty name we have prayed. And Father, I pray for as many as are trusting you for one thing or the other. By virtue of the grace of— on this altar, on, on my spiritual father, Father, I ask that you will lay your hands upon them and grant them answers this morning. In the name of Jesus, whatsoever you have waited on the Lord for, it is done this this morning in the name of Jesus. Go forward in Jesus' mighty name. It is done.

Good morning, PPC family. Welcome to another testimonial session this morning. I want to sincerely appreciate my spiritual parents, Apostle Femi Lazarus and Pastor Miracle Femi Lazarus, for the privilege to bring us this testimonial this morning. I want us to celebrate Jesus because God indeed is faithful in our midst. Can you take 10 seconds and just bless the name of the Lord? Just bless him. Say, Father, thank you for the testimonies you record on a daily basis. We give you all the praise, Jesus. We exalt you, Father. All right, straight away this morning as I read this testimony, I want to encourage us as always to key in by faith, and I see us next in line in the name of Jesus. The first testimony this morning reads, good morning Apostle, this is Samuel from Ogun State. He says, myself and my wife joined PPC last year November, and ever since then we started following PPC every day. On the 9th of December around 8 AM, my pregnant wife started bleeding. We went to the hospital immediately. On getting to the hospital, we were told to do scan, but they later detected that my wife was having placenta previa. Immediately we went, we were booked for CS, but doctor said we should go and get 2 pints of blood urgently. My wife's blood group is O negative, I beg your pardon, O negative. And we started moving from one lab to another to get blood, but no O negative. And the doctor said they won't do anything until we get the blood. I started saying and praying, Oh God of Apostle Femi Lazarus, God of Pastor Adeboye, please save me, save my wife and my baby. God of Apostle Femi Lazarus, God of PPC, please step in. He said, we are connected to the altar of PPC and this is the right time for you to show up. It's not possible for me to be a member of PPC and lose my wife or my baby or both. Nothing missing, nothing broken. He says, as I was speaking to God, as I was running around looking for blood, my wife bled from 9:00 AM till about 4:00 PM. My God. Says, when the doctor noticed that the baby is no longer breathing, immediately they wheeled her to the theater for the CS. But glory be, he says, but to God be the glory, the doctors brought the baby out alive. I was able to get the blood even though my wife's BP was high after the operation and she was placed on oxygen, yet she was resuscitated. The mother and the baby are doing great now. Hallelujah! Can we celebrate Jesus? If you, if you understand what this testimony means, you you would celebrate Jesus better. Can we say, Father, thank you. Indeed, nothing missing, nothing broken. Can we bless the name of Jesus? Father, we give you praise. Amen and amen. The next testimony we read this morning goes thus: Good morning, PPC. Good morning, Apostle. I want to thank God for his deliverance. I have been struggling with the spirit of fear for years now, but a word came through the Word in Motion series, particularly day 2. Where Apostle spoke about rest, and I had renewed confidence in the word of God pertaining to my life now. And I have gone back to the message over and over again to anchor my faith, and I've been delivered completely from the spirit of fear. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Apostle Femi Lazarus. Can we celebrate Jesus? And anyone connected under the sound of my voice struggling with the spirit of fear, as you connect to this testimony, that spirit is cast out in the name of Jesus. Amen and amen. Let's celebrate Jesus for that amazing testimony. Oh, thank you, Jesus. All right, the next testimony reads, good morning, Apostle. My name is Mrs. Rachel Adigun, and I want to thank God for what he has done in my life through you. I have been trusting God for a change in level in my place of work for over 3 years now. Says, in 2023, the promotional invite came. I didn't get it. He says, by 2024 it came again. I wrote exams but I wasn't called for the interview. By the end of 2024, I wrote another exam, and when it was time for the interview, which was during the 30 days fasting and prayers, my name was not— my name was not there for the interview. He says, I joined all the days of the prayer, seriously trusting God for a breakthrough. At the point Apostle changed the prayer point from mercy to remembrance— how many of us remember that? Apostle changed the prayer from mercy to remembrance. He says, I took the prayer section personally and seriously, and the God of Apostle Femi Lazarus showed up by making me receive my own invite for the interview almost when it was over. Says, when I knew that God indeed had remembered me, he says, was my email carried the subject of Group 1, and at the time they had exhausted from Group 1 to Group 6, which means I was already forgotten. But the God of remembrance showed up for me. I see the God of remembrance showing up for you in the name of Jesus. He says, and last week Friday I got a congratulatory email— I beg your pardon— that the process had been concluded and I have been promoted. Hallelujah! What she has waited for since 2023 has finally come. Whatever it is you're trusting God for that has lingered, as you key into this testimony, yours is next in line in the name of Jesus. Can we thank the Lord for this amazing testimony? Hallelujah! Indeed, what we have waited for for so long has come to pass. God indeed is good. Amen and amen. And the final testimony that I'll be taking this morning, um, it goes, though, says, good morning, Apostle, good morning, PPC family. My name is Ayomide from Ilorin. I want to thank God for saving me and my family from a fire disaster. Says, I sent my younger brother to go and fill our gas cylinder because it was empty. Coming back, didn't know that he didn't fix the hose that supplied the gas to the cooker properly. My younger sister just got there and was about to light it when she discovered that the gas was leaking seriously. She has even put on the cooker light to light up the matches and all that, but it was not bringing out fire for some reasons. He said, I don't know how to explain it other than to say that God has shown us mercy. Can we celebrate Jesus? For that powerful deliverance. You know what that would have meant if she had lit that matches? Boom! But God said no. Mercy said no. Can we celebrate Jesus, the one that has never left us without a witness? Indeed, God is good to us, especially here on PPC. We have every cause to give him praise. Father, we give you praise. And that will be all for today's testimonial session. Do well to send your testimonies to the number displayed on the screen, the Flame Line. We would love to hear from you and also document and share your testimony with God's people. God bless you. I'll see you tomorrow.
You might be asking, why should I register for the International School of Ministry? It is simple. You should register because it is a phenomenal opportunity for you to be trained as touching the work of ministry. It is an amazing opportunity for you to learn even if you are not in active ministry. And guess what? If you're in active ministry, it is not too late for you to learn important things from people that God has given this knowledge by the grace of God. All right, these are the reasons why you should learn. You have opportunity to learn about administration, about structure, about theology, about church history, about procedural ministry, and this is going to incredibly transform your life and ministry. I look forward to seeing you guys. Many have asked, how do I give my life to Christ? I want to make it very, very simple and introduce you today to the person of Jesus. Paul, speaking in 1 Corinthians chapter number 15 from verse 1, said, I deliver unto you the gospel that you have received and also believed, and wherein you stand, how that Christ came and died for our sins according to scriptures. And he was buried according to scriptures, and he rose on the third day according to the scriptures. When he died, he died for our sins. When he was buried, he was buried, and the Bible said he went into the lower part of the earth and set the captives free. And when he rose on the third day, he rose for our justification. And now we are seated with Christ far above principalities and powers. It is believing in his sacrificial works and his resurrection that gets us saved. So you believe in your heart unto righteousness, and you confess Jesus as your Lord and Savior unto salvation. The moment you do this, whether you feel it or not, according to scriptures, you have been saved. So today, if you are giving your life to Christ today and you want to give your life to Jesus and accept him as your Lord, I'd like to lead you to Christ. And that is exactly why I'm here this morning. You want to say these words after me. Lord Jesus, I believe that you came into this world to die for my sins. Lord Jesus, I believe that you died for my sins. I also believe that you arose on the third day for my justification. Today I confess you as my Lord and my Savior, and I accept this gift of eternal life. In Jesus' name, amen. Now, if you have said that prayer, I can tell you for surely that there is so much joy in heaven right now. There's so, so much joy. You have made the right step, and I want to encourage you. There is a barcode on the screen. I'd like for you to scan that barcode so that you can be drafted to my discipleship platform where you can be trained in the rudiments of scriptures. And you can be groomed so you can grow in the power of the salvation that you have received this morning. And I want to advise you that you keep watching Ambience TV. You can follow us on YouTube. Kindly go on your YouTube and search for Ambience TV. You can also get Ambience TV that you're watching right now, and you can also search for Femi Lazarus on YouTube and keep following very edifying content that will help you grow in Christ. I look forward to seeing you again. God bless you.
