While we're worshiping, I saw There's this event that used to happen, um, growing up in the West, where you're rearing chicken and you see hawks coming to pick the chicks, and they fly down, and the mother chicken will be trying to protect the chicks. I saw a notorious hawk that has grown so fat on the account of stealing chicks. I saw the legs being cut off. I don't know whose household it is that has been consistent repetition of the enemy sweeping in, take one, sweeping again, take another, sweeping again, take another. But this morning it is broken.

Genesis 32, and we're going to start the reading from verse 22. Genesis 32 from verse 22, and I'm going to say this that what is about to happen in tomorrow's retreat, by the end of the day, your confession will be, Father, I thank you that in my lifetime you give me an opportunity of a day like this. Don't forget what I said. You'll be so grateful that God gave you an opportunity. To hear what you'll be hearing and to have such atmosphere. Now listen to this, majority of the things you're going to be listening to, hearing, are not things that we as a ministry make public, but God has said to create a community and give them access, and that's the reason why we're having this first edition of our retreat. Retreat, so that as we spend time praying every day, we can also retreat and be able to hear the things God wants us to hear. Amen. Look at it, this is what is going to happen to you tomorrow. Genesis 32 from verse 22: And he rose up that night— that's Jacob now— and took his two wives and his two women servants and his 11 sons and passed over the ford Jabok. And he took them and sent them over the brook, and sent over that he had. So he sent everything he had, and Jacob was left alone. The moment of retreat is the moment of being alone with God. Are you still there? And by the way, it's open for across all our branches. If the pastor so deems it fit to announce that you'll be connecting in church, it's open to you. It's your choice, and you can join us anywhere, but you will have the access on the WhatsApp channel. Eresu de Eresu. Wrestled after he was left alone. He wrestled a man— oh sorry, there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint as he wrestled with him. And he said, Okay, sorry. And he said, let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go unless thou bless me. Now that he was wrestling with him doesn't mean he was winning. I can wrestle with my daughter, we wrestle wrestling, but I know what to do once that will end the fight. True? Sometimes it's not like you are that stubborn. God knows what to touch in your life. You calm down. They was wrestling. I'll beat you today. I will not beat you today. There's this Yoruba, ancient Yoruba folklore. Akiti lole jao ija, lole jao. In this case, it's Jacobu lole jao ija, lole jao. All those old folklores. It was wrestling, and the angels are singing Jacobu lole jao ija, lole jao. Jacobu— just now, you see, the reason why sometimes you don't get Bible interpretation because you don't bring your imaginations to bear. Just start. Give me a beat that goes with what I just sang now. You can give me a beat that goes with it. Let's, let's, eh, eh, can you do it now?
Eh?
On the keyboard, there's the beat now. Oh yes, yes, there's the beat on the keyboard. And so he was fighting. Ah, I beat you to the Any of you have been doing that with God? God is saying, "Come down." You say, "No, I have energy. I can, I can, I can, I can win the Lord Strong and Mighty. I can win the Lord of Hosts. I can win the Commander-in-Chief of Heavenly Forces. Give me a beat." What are you doing? Jacobu lule jao ija lule jao. Jacobu lule jao ija lule jao. Jacobu lule jao ija lule. It's okay. You know, I'm just trying to imagine it. Just, just think about the atmosphere, because in Genesis 48 he later found that it was God that he was wrestling with. I said to him, let me go, for the day breaketh. He said, I will not let you go. They say they wrestled with him breaking of the day. And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched something. He touched the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint. All of a sudden, the beat ceased. Jacobu, lole jao, i jao. Ah, ah, Jacobu, you can't ole jao. You can't fight again. He calmed down, touched the hollow of his thigh. The hollow was out of joint, and he said, let me go for the day, break it. He said, I will not let you go unless you bless me. And he asked a very simple question, what is your name? And he said, what? Jacob. And he said, your name shall no more be called Jacob, but Israel, for as a prince you have power with God and with men, and you have prevailed. But the beginning of his miracle began when he was left alone. Some of you, that's what is needed. That's what is needed now, that you be left alone. Clear your schedule. You have surfed Instagram and Facebook for a long time. If it has not changed something, let's do this one. You are not, you are not going to plait your hair tomorrow. Wear wig. Wear wig. Wear cap or tie kaftan on top. You'll be fine because the devil is a master distractor. Just set that day aside. Some of you have not been able to do one since the year began. You have an opportunity tomorrow. Is that okay? You have an opportunity. I will— and I'm telling you this, the devil will try to distract you. He will try to— he will try to bring one thing that will just give you the impression that it's not possible anymore, but you must fight for it. Praise God. So he changed his name. You get a new name. I say again, you will get a new name. Everything will turn around for We're going to lift your voice and pray. Father, as I stay in your presence tomorrow, all that you have been trying to say to me, I make myself available. All that you have been trying to say, all that you have been trying to tell me, all that you have been trying to do, I make myself available. Lord, speak! Your servant is listening. That major secret, that thing you've always wanted to show me, what you've always wanted to tell me, what you've always wanted to reveal to me. Speak, Lord. Speak, Lord. Speak, Lord. Reveal it to me. Reveal your word. Reveal your counsel. That which will bring me out of this pit, that which will bring me out of this miry clay, speak, for your servant is listening. I submit myself at your feet, the Lord of Hosts himself. Help me. I have tried every human effort. I've seen the futility. Help me. Invade my space. Invade my life. Specifically, Lord, I'm asking for you to help me. Jesus, help me, help me. If I ever needed you, I need you now. If I ever need I need you now. If I ever need that dew, I need you now. If I ever need that dew, I need you now. If I ever need I need you now if I ever needed you. I need you now if I ever needed you. I need you now if I ever— I need you now. If I ever need daddy, I need you now. If I ever need daddy, I need you now. Oh, lift your voice and pray. Help me, Jesus. Oh, blessed be your holy name. Help me, Jesus. Help me, help me, help me. In Jesus' mighty name His name we are praying. You never know how much can change if you make out one single day to honor God and be in his presence. You never can tell. Sometimes it's not by being everywhere and doing everything. Stillness is the real secret of speed. Be still and know that I'm the Lord.
God.
Isaiah chapter number 40. My duty today is to prepare you for tomorrow morning, 9 AM West African Time. Isaiah chapter number 40 from verse 28. Isaiah 40 from verse 28. Hast thou not known, hast thou not heard, that the Everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth, faint fainted not, neither is weary. There is no searching of his understanding. He giveth power to the faint, and to them that has no might he increaseth strength. Even the youth shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall. But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be they shall walk and not faint. Waiting is the secret of speed. God wants to reveal secrets. Tomorrow is going to be a day of secrets, a day of secrets, a day of secrets that you're gonna— you now know the prayers to pray, you now know what to do. And I tell you, there are meetings you are privileged to be part of that your life— if your life doesn't change, then it's, it's, it's, it's your concern, because it ought to change. Praise God. Lift your voice and say, thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. Say, Lord, I receive grace and strength to wait upon you for the betting of a new day. For the betting of a new beginning. It becomes a day that all things becomes new in the name of Jesus. All things becomes new. All things becomes new. All things. All things change my life completely. Change my life completely. Change my story completely. Change my situation completely.
Completely.
All things, Lord. All things. All things are new. All things are new in the name of Jesus. Oh, I give you praise, dear Lord. Blessed be your holy name. In Jesus' mighty name we pray. Don't miss it for any meeting. And you know, this is one of the very important reasons why you should be on the WhatsApp channel. Um, and for those of you who have been asking that the link should also be in my bio on the Linktree, it's been added now. All right, but it's also in the comment section, so make sure you click it. Or if you have a friend whose number you have, then tell the person to share the link with you on WhatsApp. Then you can now join because the access to the retreat will only be on the WhatsApp channel. So I look forward to having you tomorrow by 9 AM West African Time. I speak blessings over you. As we put ourselves in God's presence to pray, the heavens are opened. The hand of the Lord rests upon you. The heavens are completely opened in the name of Jesus. The heavens are completely opened. The heavens are completely open. It will be a day of amazing solutions, to be a day of wisdom and secrets. In the name of Jesus. In Jesus' mighty name, amen. At this the point where I say see you at the retreat. And by the way, International Ministers Conference that brings ministers from all over the place will be happening the month of September. The flyer is on the screen. This is the first announcement, so I look forward to seeing you there. And see you at the retreat tomorrow. God bless you.
You.
Have a wonderful time. Bye-bye.
Amen, amen. Good morning, PPC family, and welcome to another testimony session. Can we take a moment and just bless the Lord for all the amazing testimonies that we record on a daily basis? Indeed, God is good, and I want us to just put in the comment section, God is good. Hallelujah, amen. And allow me to celebrate my spiritual parents, Apostle Femi Lazarus and Pastor Miracle Femi Lazarus, for this amazing privilege to bring us these testimonies. Now, as I read this testimony, as as we share these testimonies. Key in by faith, and I see God stepping in, you know, to replicate these testimonies in your own life, and that will be your own praise in the name of Jesus. All right, the first testimony this morning goes thus: Good morning, Apostle. Good morning, PPC family. I just want to take a moment to testify to the goodness of God for what he has done in my life. He says, as a committed attendee of PPC, I've been tremendously— tremendously, I beg your pardon— blessed by the prayers of our father, Apostle Femi Lazarus. Femi Lazarus. Throughout this past week during PPC, Apostle continually interceded for those waiting on long-awaited answers, especially for visas, green cards, and other breakthroughs. To the glory of God, I am here to testify. On July 30th, 2025, I officially became a United States permanent resident. God did it! Hallelujah! Come on, can we celebrate Jesus? And as many that are trusting God for, you know, one document to be approved or the other, this is the time to key And as you do so, I see God doing, going ahead of you to make it done in the name of Jesus. Hallelujah! What an amazing testimony. Amen. Amen. All right, the next testimony this morning reads, good morning Apostle, good morning PPC family. Says, I am here to testify to the goodness of God. My visa was granted and I am to travel this week. I am sincerely grateful for God's mercy. With faith I keyed to prophecy and in faith did I receive my testimony. I pray, he said, and I pray the new land I'm going will yield me bountiful fruits in Jesus' name. Can we celebrate Jesus? It seems God is doing a lot of visa approvals. As many trusting God for one approval or the other, ah, this is the time. The Bible says to rejoice with them that rejoice. As you do so and then place a demand, I see the Lord coming in for you and bringing that testimony to bear in the name of Jesus. Hallelujah! Amen and amen. All right, can we just say thank you, Father? Father. Amen. I'll take one more testimony for want of time before we wrap up today. Igozdo says, um, I want to thank God for his goodness and mercy and restoration in my family. Says, I wrote down 4 specific prayer points, trusting God to answer them before the end of July. The first was a release of my sister's visa, which had been held since December. The second is the release of my mom's visa. The third was a job offer letter for me, and Fourth, a job offer letter for my younger one. Says, at the time I had been out of a job for 4 months and I was desperately tapping into the job testimonies shared by others at the— at the— at— on PPC here. He says, believing that mine would come too. He says, earlier in the year I also attempted a professional exam and unfortunately I failed. He said, it was a tough moment but I trusted God and reattempted the exams. This time, this time I passed with flying colors. He says, to the glory of God, he answered every single one of the 4 prayers. Number 1, my sister's visa has finally been released after months of delay. Hallelujah! Number 2, my mom's visa was granted. Number 3, I received a job offer after months of waiting. And number 4, my younger ones also received a job offer. From failure to favor, from waiting to receiving, God came through for me and my family. Can we just say thank you, Jesus? Come on, take a moment and just thank Lord. Look at all this many, many testimonies. Oh, the Bible says one thing happening fast on the heel of another, your head will so sweep. Oh, that will be someone's testimony in the name of Jesus. Can we just thank the Lord? Put in the comment section, thank you Jesus. Hallelujah, hallelujah, amen and amen. All right, that's the much I can take this morning for, you know, for want of time. But when I come your way again next time, I'm too convinced that it will be your own testimony that we'll be sharing to the glory of God bless you.
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 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 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.
