Good morning, sir.

Hallelujah. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Thank you, Lord. I believe you had a wonderful, wonderful night. Praise God. Let's give Jesus praise from the depth of our hearts. Let's worship him. He deserves the lifting up of our hands, and, um, he's been the force behind our lives. I want us to bless him and let everything within you magnify him. He deserves our worship and praise. He deserves the lifting up of our hands. He deserves glory. He deserves honor. Let's thank him. Let's thank him. Let's thank him. Let's thank him. Let's give him praise. Let's worship him. The Lord of Hosts is his name. He is the Lord strong and mighty. He is the Lord who is mighty in battle. Who can be likened to you, Lord, in all the earth? You are glorious in holiness. You are fearful in praise. You do wonders. You perform miracles. You are God all by yourself. I give you praise. I give you all the worship. Let's thank him. Who is like unto thee?

The Lord strong and mighty, our help in ages past, our ever-present help in times of trouble. The Lord of Hosts, we thank you, we thank you, we thank you. Let's raise that sound. Bye. Amen. Um, this morning, while— amen. Are we back now?

Huh?

Yes. All right. This morning while praying towards PPC, I just found myself weeping and I know why. Um, the Lord had revived the matter in my heart. And I just couldn't hold it. I will share with you and point you to scriptures. Those of us online, don't get distracted by the network, okay? Don't worry. To get better. So the Lord had brought a matter back to my heart. In my 17 years of active leadership, particularly church planting. I had planted about 14 churches before Light Nation commenced. Plant churches in village. My, my biggest, my biggest Concern, or should I say, use the word problem in all these 17 years, is that as God sent me from location to location to start a work, to plant a work, to raise a people— because when it comes to apostolic work, as you go to territories, the proof of your apostleship is not building but men. My biggest trouble in these years is that— okay, network now, I'm going to have to wait. Can you hear me? My biggest trouble in these years is that there are places God sends me to, and when he sends me to places, he highlights, um, people, destinies, and say, raise this one, train this one, disciple this one. Lift this one's hand. Bring this one close. 80% of time, the people don't know. And because they don't know, they become prone to misbehavior till the season passes. I've had to look back at places I've worked and see people who became ready when the time passed but were not ready in this season, and there's nothing I can do anymore. I've seen it as a pattern everywhere I've worked, and I tell those in Abuja There's nothing God will say is my crime to keep me in this city forever, because I'm a church planter. I move from territory to territory to raise men. I found myself weep, and I now understand why Jesus looked at Jerusalem and wept. And said, if only you know the time and your time that is apportioned to you and your season. And he looked at the city. People were looking at the city and were laughing and were rejoicing for the great edifice. Jesus looked at the same city and wept. And I've found out that one of the worst things the devil can do to a person is that as the person approaches their season, it blindfolds them. Then they refuse to take the posture that their destiny requires. They will later be revived, but the season is gone. And I will show you that in scriptures. In Exodus chapter number 7, verse 23. Let's start from verse 22. Exodus 7 from verse 22. Exodus 7 from verse 22. And Moses was learned in all wisdom of Egyptians and was mighty in words and deeds. And when he was 40 years old, he came to his heart to visit his brethren, the children of Israel. And seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him and avenged him that was oppressed and smote the Egyptian. Why did he kill the Egyptian? In verse 25, for he supposed that his brethren would have understood how that God by his hand will deliver them, but they understood not. So Moses got to a place in his dealing with God, it occurred to him that the access to the food in Egypt, the access to the wine, the access to the meat, the access to the luxury is not going to be a factor for testimony in church. It is what is to lay back on the altar and go back to save his brother. I wrote about that yesterday, that you don't consolidate. Esther has been made queen. You don't sit back on your chair when Haman is trying to take out the Israelites. You must lay back the crown on the altar. Those who cling to death live. It taught— it is dangerous when the one God is sending to you is prayed up and the one God is sending people to is not, and the one God is to— that is to receive is not prayed up. They will not be able to discern their season. One of the biggest burden right now in my life is that there are too many people to disciple than the number of hands. And if you're going to talk about critical work, there's a need for access. And it looks like as time goes by, the people that God is calling themselves will slip off. Then when that season passes, they wake up. I can tell you stories. The devil doesn't need you to sleep for long. He just needs you to sleep strategically at the time that your season will pass, then you wake up. Esau sought for it with tears. My heart is so heavy this morning, and I want every one of us— what I'm saying now may not seem to make a lot of sense to you. There are things God wants to do for you. There are things he wants to do in your life that the devil wants to give you temporary blindfold So that that season will go, then you begin to cry about like Esau. The Bible said Esau sought for it with tears. But there was a time that Esau said, what is the birthright to me? I taught a sermon, it's not much of a popular sermon, but I think it's one of the greatest sermon I ever taught. It's titled The Market Called Life. There are times you get to the market in the morning and you want to buy tomatoes, and you see it in abundance, and you trivialize it because it is plenty, only to come back in the evening and what was once plenty is now scarce. They bought the good ones, and what is left is already mashy. Then you delay again and come back. What is kaas is now no longer available. Even with all your money, you can't afford it. Buy it when it is cheap. Don't trivialize open doors. I want us to pray this morning that Jesus, you are the one who helps the church. Wake me up from this slumber of death. Remove the blindfold that the enemy has placed over my eyes, my face, to blind me towards my season. Remove this clog in my mind, that which makes me feel, um, complacent in the middle of warfare. Please pray. Please pray. Lord, open my eyes that I may see. I, you see, I might be talking calmly, but you know that you should not pray calmly. Open my eyes that I may see. Open my eyes of understanding that I may see, Lord. I don't want the enemy to snatch away my season because of lack of value. What will you gain with pride? Don't be full of yourself. When the Lord is trying to fasten you to a race, will you move? Lord, help me. Remove the blindfold from my eyes that I will not miss my season. In Jesus' name we are praying. Listen to what I'm saying here. I will tell you this as raw as it is. When Moses showed up and began to fight on behalf of the Israelites, ah, when Moses tried to help them, it was one guy that spoke. Moses had started his duty. You may say he started too early, but he had started. They've been there for 400 years, so there's nothing early about their deliverance. They were already late. It was one guy who spoke and said, what made you a ruler of ours? Do you want to kill me like you killed the Egyptian? One guy. The whole Israel will be crying to God. The guy too was in their camp, but they will not know that that's the guy who bought 40 extra years for them. When you get to the time that you know this your season, don't put a wrong spokesperson in front. There are people who are too lousy to speak for you. When those that God sends to you hear them, they run. And that's, that's, that's one guy bought them 40 years extra. So it means that The devil orchestrated the guy to be a voice. There are people who are— and I'm sorry to use this term because I'm all for people's healing— but there are people who are battered and broken and they are refusing the diagnosis for their healing, and they come around your life and transfer their injury. And if you carry their injury, if you are not careful, you will miss your own season too. Because they will make you bitter. Every time they come around you, they keep telling you the reason why they don't do church. They keep telling you the reason why they don't believe in any man of God. They keep telling you the reason why they don't believe in all this prayer. They keep telling the reason why they don't even trust church anymore. They keep telling the reason why they don't do all— and yet when it gets to where it gets to, they have pastors. They will mess you up, then leave you to get their own miracles. You need wisdom, but more importantly, you need eyes that see. Okay, Father, wake me up from the sleep of death. Give me eyes that sees. I, I wish you will pray that prayer. Wake me up. From the sleep of death. Give me eyes that sleep. Wake me up from this— this is a prayer of revival, so I, I really thought that you would have prayed it better. Wake me up from this sleep of death. Give me eyes that see. Wake me up from the sleep of death. Give me eyes that sees. I want to see and recognize my season. I don't want to wake up when it is too late. I don't want to wake up when grace has been distributed. I don't want to wake up when everything has been shared. Give me eyes that sees. Woke me up from the sleep of death. Give me eyes that sees. Wake me up from the sleep of death. In Jesus' mighty name we're praying. As I read the Bible, I have questions, and I'm not going to say that because I'm the one all holding the mic here. You can't have answer to my question. You, you might have an answer to my question. What changed between the time that Esau said, what is this birthright to me, and the time that he wept for it with tears? What changed? Because we were not told he went through any lecture, huh? Just yesterday he will exchange something of inestimable value with food, and the day after he will cry for it with tears. Brothers and sisters, what changed? Nothing changed. The devil just needed to blindfold him for a season, and when that thing is gone, they remove the veil. I said to you yesterday that the highest height of manipulation against a person's life is for the devil to use the person's hand to destroy himself, to use the person's mouth to destroy himself, to use the person's hand to— the madman of Gadara had scars, had bruises, was bleeding. But as you approach him, you'll find out that there's nobody there afflicting him. He was afflicting himself. That's, that's one of the worst things that the devil can do to a person, to use your own hands to bring yourself down. There are things that many of you are trivializing now that is about to become scarce, and very soon it will not become just scarce, it will finish. There is a lineup, and I was telling my brother yesterday after service that there is a lineup, and there is a sense of urgency in heaven that the people that God can trust for the next generation, can they take their place now? Men and women, young and old, I've said to you that the generation you belong to is not about your age, it's about the season you wake up. It's not about age. I want you to put your two hands on your head. This is a desperate cry this morning. What are the things that you are currently trivializing and commonizing? Till it will finish. Give me eyes that sees in this season. Wake me up from the sleep of death. Don't let the enemy snatch anything from me. I don't want to wake up when it is too late. Wake me up now. Revive me. Lift your voice and cry to God. I don't want to wake up when it is too late. I don't want to wake up when it is gone. I don't want to wake up when all is lost.

Revive me.

There's a cry that has been in my heart: wake me up from the sleep of death. Wake me up from the sleep of what? Death. Wake me up from the sleep of death. I, I just wish that you would have prayed this one more than the way you used to pray against battles. I really wish, because this is so critical and this is more important. Wake me from the sleep of death. Wake me from the sleep of death. In Jesus' mighty name we're praying. When our ministry started years ago, just like anything that God is doing, one of the things we were met with was fierce opposition. I still have pictures on my phone of the day some people came and met us where we're holding meeting, and one of them was vowing that he will scatter this ministry. He said, what this guy is doing here is not going to stand the chance. He's not going to see the light of the day. I could see that it wasn't them. There's an enemy who has seen the future, but who was maximizing their insecurities. See, you must understand when people stand in front of you and they are shouting and it's not them. That's why you— that's how you know you're a person of the spirit. You must know when it is not what them. And they began to call the people God has sent me to one by one, and they will sit them down in meetings and school them and give them 1 billion reasons why if you follow this man you fail. And if you ask me then too, the shirt I was wearing was borrowed, the trouser I was wearing was borrowed. The shoe I was wearing was borrowed. So it looks like failure. Some of them, their heart couldn't stomach it and left, and some said, we stay here regardless. As I begin to intercede, I most times I go back in time to check 'You took this boy from me. What have you done with him?' And as I begin to flip pages, I see them. They have left them without a captain. Many of them can't find their way anywhere in life because when people take you out of your location, if God has not sent them to you, they have nothing to give you. So I check where sometimes I remember so-and-so name suddenly, maybe I'm on the road and I pick my phone and check and say, ah, you just swept this boy away or swept this girl away from what God is doing. I don't know why this morning of all morning God brought all these things back. And I found myself in tears. Hold fast what God has given to you so that what is lame will not become desolate. Hold fast the doors that God is giving to you so you, you don't mess up your life. Listen to what I'm saying, and I want to tell you this, um, and I'm going to tell you once. Ereuben was cursed in Genesis 49, and Jacob said the reason why he cursed Reuben was because Reuben went into his father's housewife and defiled the bed. Moses will reverse the curse later, okay, over 400 years later. So Reuben carried the curse for how many years? Over 400 years. The urge for Reuben to make that mistake was not going to be for life. It was to disqualify him for that day of the blessing. The urge for misbehavior is not for life. Even in Matthew 4, when the devil tempted Jesus, the Bible said he left him for a while. So that pressure will always go away, but you must not fall to it. Put your two hands on your head. Lord, I refuse to sell off. I refuse to fall to the sword of the enemy. I refuse to be the one they will be having party over, rejoicing over as one of the fallen giants. I actually wish that this is the day you will pray more. I actually wish that this is the day you will cry more. I actually wish that this is the moment you will lift your voice to God more. Lord, don't let the enemy rejoice over me. Rescue me. Help me, help me, help me, help me, help me, help me. Open the eyes of my understanding.

Help me.

Help me, oh! Help me! Wake me up from the sleep of death! Wake me up from the sleep of death. Help me, help me, help me, help me, help me. Eka fitene rogo sente. Sente rogo sente. Sente rogo sente. Help me. Help me, Jesus, thou Son of David. Help me, help me. Say, 'Kete nerogo sente.' Help me, help me, help me.

Help!

Jesus, help me! Jesus, the Savior of my soul, come and save me now. Jesus, the Savior of my soul, come and save me now. Jesus, the helper of my soul, come and help me now. Jesus, the helper of my soul, come and help me now. Jesus, the healer of my soul, come and heal me now. Jesus, the healer of my soul, come and heal me now. In Jesus' Mighty name we're praying. Life is spiritual. You will not take anything out of it if you are not spiritual. Let me give you an illustration. You enter into a room and you see they are celebrating someone as the winner of a race. They've given him a medal. He said, that's the winner. You see someone else, they are celebrating the person and give the person food. And you are wondering, ah, this athlete must be so fast, and this guy who is eating in the midst of scarcity must be the wisest here. Then the Lord came and said, the race is not for the swift, the food is not for the wise, the battle is not for the strong. So he didn't win it because he's fast. He's not getting the food because he's the best. The battle is not for the strong. Didn't win because he's the best. He said, but time and chance happened. What does that mean? He cooperated with his season. Your time is your chance. Your time is your season of availability of grace to carry you. The biggest example of time and chance is that Just like now is the best time to be born again. If you miss this season and the rapture takes place, you've missed the time and chance. You will have to do without grace what grace does. You pay with your blood. And if there's anyone here who has not accepted Jesus, put your hands on your chest and say, Lord Jesus, I believe you came to this world to die for my sins. I believe that you died for my sins. I also believe that you rose on the third day for me to be justified. Today I confess you as my Lord and Savior, and I accept this gift of eternal life. In Jesus' name, amen. If you have said that prayer, send me a message with the number on the screen. I beg you, those who reject Jesus in the time of grace, when rapture takes place and the church is gone, we all are gone, they will pay with their blood without grace. So you are seeing people and say, why is this person here? Oh, this person has— God is saying time and chance happened. Let me tell you how seasons look like. Have you seen those who— they don't really do that much in Africa, Brazil, America— those who surf wave, who have their surfing boat, huh? They surf on water. Have you seen them before? Good. You can see these guys stand by the seashore. They are waiting for the wave that they can ride on. They can't create wave, they maximize wave. Your time is the season of the stirring of your water. You maximize it by riding on it. If you miss it, you will have to wait for a re-oscillation of time that may take you the same amount of time it took you to get there. So sometimes it is for— that was what happened now. Sometimes it will take you the double. It took you maybe from age 1 to 35 or 30 to get to this point where this door is open. You miss it, it may take you another 30 years. For Egypt, that's what happened. Moses was 40. They missed it. It took another what? 40 years. The child that was 30 when Moses came will now be an old man when they have been delivered. It would have been easier to walk to the promised land as a young man. Now you will have to walk as an old man. Sometimes in the oscillation of time, it takes the same amount of time it took to get to that season and miss it to get it back again. But there's a God who restores years that the locusts and the cankerworms have eaten. That's the only good news, that for those who are currently in front of their season will ask Help me maximize it. And those who have missed it will say, restore to me the years that the locusts ate, the years that the cankerworms ate. I missed something I can't buy with money. Restore it. And those who are sensing that there's something close, heighten your spirituality, heighten your prayer, heighten your fasting, heighten your hunger. So you can be spiritually prepared when you stand in front of your own door. I wish you would pray. Restore, restore. I can't manage it. I can't do life with this loss. Help me not to miss the season. Help me, help me. Restore to me the years that the locusts and the canker worms has eaten. Restore to me, Lord. E la quante che ti terrò cosciente. Oh Lord, help me. Femi Lazarus, help me, help me, help me. I don't know why God is giving this clarion call this morning. I don't know why God is saying revive the sleeping soldiers, wake them up so that the battle is not past when they are not looking for their shield and their swords. Wake them up so they can collect what they need for the war at the times that others are taking it. You don't want to go to the armory when all is distributed. Stay in line gallantly and take yours when others are taking it. And if you know you have missed it one way or the other, don't be shy, shy to ask for restoration. Your network, don't be shy. Restore, Lord. Restore.
