No one is irreparable. Like the one who can't see. The Bible says that those in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of them which believe not. Now, how does the god of this world blind people? Genesis chapter number 3. Genesis chapter number 3, we'll start reading from verse 1. Genesis 3 from verse 1. Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, yea, at God said ye shall not eat of every tree in the garden. Now hold on, simply put, is God starving you? Is that what he's trying to do? He's trying to starve you. Is trying to suffer you or make you suffer. That's the meaning of the question. When the devil wants to destroy a person, it makes them feel that that which God has given to them is to constrain them or to limit them. So in the pursuit of freedom, they become grounded. That's the game that is happening in the Nigerian church. I can predict in another 10-year cycle in the Nigerian church, the strongest ministries will be ministries that take spiritual fathering seriously. The hands will cross again, because the moment the devil said that your eyes will be open, what happened was that they became eternally blind. That was what he did. They became blind, but he started by suggesting to them that, look at it, look at where God has put you. Why did he say that you should not eat of any tree in the garden? Why? Why did he say that? How will God say that? I said, God has said we should eat of every tree in the garden but of the tree that is in the middle of the garden. You should not eat, neither should we touch. All right, was that what Eve said? Yes, that was what she said. Go to verse 3 now. But of the fruit of the tree which is in the— sorry, please— midst of the garden, God had said, ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. Yes. Verse 4 now. Then, and the serpent said unto the woman, you shall not surely die. So part of the games the devil is playing in the life of believers is to outrightly tell them that God lies. He, he has the audacity to say that God is a liar. All right. Say, you shall not surely die. And he went on to continue. Yeah, look at what he said, verse 5 now. For God doth know that in the day that you eat thereof, your eyes shall be open. Now pay attention, when you hear things that is anti the covenant in your lineage. You don't wait for the sequel. When the sons of the prophet said to Elijah— Elisha— that, do you know that God is about to take away your master from you? He said, I know, hold your peace. If he should listen further They have more to say, particularly the reason why they said your master. And if they should say it to him, he will no longer be in line for the inheritance. It is a divisive spirit. Let me tell you something, there's a circle, there's a circle, huh? In the church that before major inheritances are released in every generation, there must be a wind of wrong doctrine so that those who are unstable, carried to and fro by people, they will leave the way. Then real sons can take it. It's a circle. The issue is that many people are loud, but only few are grounded. Only few. I curse the root of the deception of the devil. In anybody's soul. Amen. The deception that keep people, people's eyes blinded till inheritances are gone. Ah, I, I curse the root of it in the Nigerian church. I curse the root of it. Because that kind of blindness is periodic. It is seasonal. That once that thing is— see, Esau was blind towards the birthright, but when he lost it, the Bible said he sought for it with tears, meaning that his eyes got open the moment it was beyond reach. His eyes was open. There are— listen to what I'm saying— there are revelations that does not need the Holy Ghost. It will take missing a season. To come into awareness. This one is not— go, go. It means that the devil who came to blind came to do it for a season. Once that thing is passed, he removes his hand. And then he sought for it with tears, but it was gone. Esau could be great, but his seed could not. Huh? Was he so great? Yes, but the capacity to pass on was taken from him. I have watched the deception even in people's life— mildness, coldness, nonchalance— till a major season passes, then adversity. The prodigal son did not need the Holy Ghost to open his eyes. Now it was adversity When hunger came, he thought to himself, I have a father. I curse the root of blindness. I curse the root of blindness. I curse the root of blindness. Sit down for a while. Please be seated. There is a kind of revelation people have when a season is gone, because even the activities of the devil is with time. I've told you about Reuben. The urge to sleep with his father's wife was strongest before the blessing was released. There are, there are, there are temptations that will come as you approach a season. If you will not fall for them, you will notice as you enter that Kairos, they just leave by themselves. They just— because the idea of the pressure in the first place is to make sure that anyone who wants this one will not enter. Are you with me? Meanwhile, if you jump into those temptations, your children will have to fight in that same ground. Was it not strange that when the sons of prophets said to Elijah that, do you know that God is about to take away your master? Your— they were sons of the prophet, but they said your Master, fatherhood is a two-way thing. It is possible you have accepted someone as a son, but the fellow is still an orphan. And there are people who are sons that you have not even accepted, and they are better positioned for inheritances because they've not had opportunity. But God sees their hunger and honors it. Until the wife of one of the guys now came. The husband said Elijah is your master to Elisha. Then the wife now came to Elisha, that is to one that they ought to be contemporaries, because you must rise with your own generation. And said— the man that could not call Elijah master, the wife now said in his absence, your servant, my husband is dead and he didn't die well. Creditors are on us now to take the children. There is a generation you must rise with, and there is a generation you look up to. If you despise the one you should look up to, the one you ought to arise with will have to father you. And if you refuse, you will miss it. That doesn't mean demotion, it is still mercy. There comes a time that the number of a man's years, if he lives it again, is not enough to repair the damage. There is a time in front of you, and there's a season that the devil needs you to be blind before you cross, so that You miss a season, then your eyes will be open, but what you ought to enter with is gone. The Bible said that it is the god of this world that has blinded their eyes. Again, I pronounce judgment on that force of blindness. I pronounce judgment On that force of blindness, I pronounce judgment. Sit down. 1 John chapter number 2, verse 14. 1 John 2:14. I have written unto you, fathers, because you have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and what? You have overcome the wicked one. When he spoke about the fathers, There's a knowledge that is— they have— say you have known him that is from the beginning. You see, what I'm teaching you tonight, topic is grace flows in families. Okay, but look at this. Everywhere grace is flowing, there is a wisdom that is the great gatekeeper of that gate, of that grace. Okay, huh? Do you get it? Grace is not something you access. You access the wisdom first. So the patriarch in every lineage is a custodian of something. I have written to you, fathers, because you have known him. So there's a body of knowledge that you have. A father is a custodian of secrets. Secrets. What? Don't position yourself in a way that your father will be careful with you. You know, as a father, you know sons who are not sons, and you know daughters who are not daughters. You know mentees who are not mentees. It's just a knowing in your heart, just Awe. This thing is not by eye service, it is spirit to spirit. There's been cases where a man knelt down by the right hand and the hand crossed. Because it is spirit to what? Spirit. Give me that book of Psalms. Let the hand of the Lord be upon the man of his right hand. Psalms 81. This Psalm 81 or Psalm 80? Get me out that scripture. That the hand of the Lord will be upon the man of his right hand. So there is the man— are you here? There is the man of the right hand. It is access to the wisdom of your lineage first. It is access to the instruction first. That's what you desire. It is wisdom that now open the gate for you to see. It is robbery to desire the grace without the wisdom. Look at it. Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man whom you have chosen. Now look at this. You come, you come, both of you should come. Go on your knees, and then you want to lay hands. This is Ephraim, this is Manasseh. One is positioned to the right, that's position. The man who wanted to pray was already blind. It was not about favorite, it was about who God has seen. God redirected the hand because sometimes the one who is positioned by God's right hand, life might put the person on the left. As far as it is spirit to spirit, your physical location cannot be at disadvantage. He cannot. There's been sons of the prayerful Elisha now before— before Elijah, before Elisha came. He said, give ear, you shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock, you who sit between the cherubims, you shine forth. He leads you first, then it shine forth in your life. It is spirit to spirit. It is spirit to spirit. The spirit of awareness, of recognition, of unveiled face. Some walk through life with veiled faces. You won't be blind. Please sit down. You won't be blind. Amen. You will not be blind. Amen. You will not be blind. Amen. It is spirit to spirit. Grace runs in families. There are some powerful forces of leadership in the Old Testament. Kingship, priesthood. What's the third? Judges. What was the fault, huh? Prophet. God never directly led them to a prophet at any point. Samuel was a priest and a prophet. It was the blessing that started and it was in the family. One of the things I've learned in leading people is that if God has brought someone to a place of destiny Their foundation can be their undoing. Some are not prepared for what they want, and there's a way foundation tend to have some gravitational pull. That pulls people. It might be one flimsy decision, the person is out of the race. You will explain for now, and it may seem to make sense until it is given to time. Don't choose a lifestyle that you'll have to be behind the wall to tell stories. Look up. A friend of mine was going to buy a facility, then he found out, okay, belongs to them. There's a goodbye. Elders called him, go and verify. And they found out that that facility is a collateral. The people you insulted all your life are building cathedrals, and one of them said, like poultry pen, the one who knows so much is in trouble. Once you choose the path of offense, you have chosen a dry land. You will— listen, look up, look up. I am not, I am not apologetic about what I'm teaching. You either get offended or— are you what I'm saying? Once you choose the path, once you choose the path of offense, you have chosen a dry land. Mark my words. Forget about the opera going on in Nigeria now. God will never endorse strife. Will never endorse the method. It will vanish like smoke. It is not a worry. There was one who was doing it from Ukraine. While he was facing Nigeria, Ukraine was burning. By the time he turned back home, there was no place to turn to. Once you choose strife, you have chosen a land in which nothing will grow. And you are most likely going to fall into strife because your spiritual battery is low. If you keep living on low battery, you will fall to things you should not fall to. Are you here? Yes, sir. Being spiritually fervent empowers a kind of choice. When your spiritual life is down, there is a kind of choice you are predisposed to. That's why you pray. If you keep faking it, it will be revealed at the valley of decisions. It will be revealed. You will not stand the test of time. Once you choose that low battery, you, you can't fake it. There are decisions you can't make by luck. You must have been prepared ahead. When you get to that junction, you can't even prepare a day 2. There are— I'm telling you There are destiny decisions that you cannot have emergency preparation. It must have taken time of God furnishing you. Ah, let me give you a minute to pray. I refuse to choose a dry land. I refuse, I refuse, I refuse, I refuse. I refuse. I refuse to choose a barren land. I refuse. I refuse. I refuse. I refuse to choose the path of fence. I refuse. I refuse. I refuse. In Jesus'
