THE COVENANT OF GOD

Thank you, we bless you, Lord. Amen. Can we lift our hands to Jesus this morning? Um, come back on stage, come back. Lift your hands, and I'd like for you to pray in other tongues the way you've never done before. Pray in other tongues. Pray in other tongues. Pray in other tongues the way you've never done before.

Um.

Pray in other tongues. Pray in other tongues. Oh, thank you, Lord Jesus. In Jesus' mighty name we pray. Lift your hands and say, Father, I soak in your presence. And I like for you not just to say it, but get in the pool of it. Get into the pool of it. Let your heart Let your spirit be ignited. We will stand in the Golden City, in the New Jerusalem. All our fears and all our tears will be no more. We will stand with the hosts of heaven and cry holy, holy, holy.

Is the Lamb. Holy, holy, holy is the Lamb. We will stand in the golden city, in the New Jerusalem. All that hindered our tears will be no more. We will stand with the host of heaven and crown holy the land. Holy, holy, holy is the Lamb. We will stand in the golden city In the new Jerusalem, all the kings and all the tears will be lost.

We will stand with the host of heaven and cry, "Holy is the Lamb! Holy, holy, holy is the Lamb!" Lift your hands and just call him holy. Just soak in his presence. That's all that matters. That's all that matters. That's all that matters. We will stand with the host of heaven and cry, holy is the Lamb.

Holy! Holy! Holy Jesus Christ— holy... holy... holy is your name; holy... holy... holy is thy name. Holy, holy, holy is the Lamb.

Raise the sound H to H.

We bless you, Lord Jesus. You gave me hope, you made me whole. At the cross, at the cross, you took my place. You showed me grace at the cross when you died And his glory appears like a light from the sun. Femi Lazarus.

Pray in Holy Ghost everyone! Pray in The Holy Ghost! Pray In The Holy Ghost! Pray In The Holy Ghost! Soak in His presence!

Singing all these songs.

We bless you, Lord Jesus. Blessed be your holy name. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Blessed be your holy name. Thank you, Lord. In Jesus' mighty name we have prayed.

Amen.

Thank you, Lord Jesus, for your presence. Your presence so strong for a mighty army that you're raising here for your glory. We give you all the praise, Father. Let there be an invasion of our thoughts, our minds, and spirits by your word coming out this morning. Let there be an outbreak of the anointing to understand end time assignments. We give you praise, Jesus. In Jesus' mighty name. If you may, you can give Jesus a big, big, big hand.

Amen.

Thank you, Lord. Amen. Thank you.

Amen.

All right, so we've been seeing The covenant of God. I showed you Deuteronomy chapter number 8, verse 18, in the course of the week. Very powerful scripture. He said, but thou shalt remember the Lord thy God, for it is he that giveth thee power to get what? Wealth. That he might— that, sorry, that he may establish his covenant which he swore unto thy fathers. As it is this day. You remember this text? We've been going back and forth with this throughout the week. Um, but before I get into the issue of the covenant, look at the word in Isaiah chapter number 10, verse 27. All right, I didn't plan to show you that before But let me show you something. Isaiah chapter number 10, verse 27. There's something powerful that you need to see in that text. If you're there, say amen. Let's read together. 1, 2, 3, go. Because of what? The anointing. If you read many translations, the word you see for the anointing is the word 'rimmon.' So the Bible is saying anointing breaks yokes. Until you read the scripture closely. Look at this. This is Isaiah 10:27, Amplified Translation. And if the media can help me get— there's a translation called Young Literal Translation, YLT. All right, I want to show them something there. He said, 'And it shall come to pass.' By the way, we have to be paying attention to read the Bible in its original language, because many people who are not of the faith are coming with new translations so as to be able to alter realities. So if we don't have sound teachers who are reading the Bible— so when you hear Greek and Hebrew, it is not to the end that somebody sounds eloquent, but to bring you closer to the original intent. In the law or the rule for teaching, you cannot make the Bible mean what it did not mean when it was said. So you must go back to the original meaning, and that's what we are doing now. Is that okay? Now look at it. It shall be in that day that the burden of the Assyrians shall depart from your shoulders and the yoke from your neck. The yoke shall be destroyed because of fatness. So the word now you are thinking is anointing on your head. He said no, it's fatness. Now he's saying, which prevents it from going around your neck. Now you think you've seen it all. I'm gonna break it down. Do you have the— there's another translation, look at it. And it shall come to pass in that day, all right, turned is— all right, turned is his burden off your shoulders. Turned, turned is his burden from off your shoulder. And his yoke from off your neck, and destroy it as being the yoke because of prosperity. So it means as God allows you to advance, there are certain yokes that used to fit but will no longer fit. Why? Fatness. And that's what I told you. And there's so much burden in my heart as I'm teaching that you must treat wealth the same way you treat the anointing.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir. Once you understand that, then you move into a phase where you are— you have become a divine treasurer. That God can allocate certain things in your direction on behalf of his children. If you have healing anointing, you're looking for the sick. You're looking for the sick, and when you see the sick, you want to get them healed. When you have the anointing for working of miracles, you are looking for situations that require the work of miracles. How come when we have wealth we shut our doors? It's an invitation to partnership with God. How do you increase anointing? By using it. Strong meat belongs to them who by reason of use have their senses exercised. So if I pray for the sick now and the fellow gets healed, I'm stirred to want to do it again. I'm scared. God is bringing you to a point that what is flowing from you will become channels to bless lives. God did not create you to be looking for jobs. He didn't create you to be begging anyone with your certificate and say, please, whatever I wrote, just, just find a way. And some will even go as bad as saying, before I give you this job, I must open your clothes. That's not the way God designed you. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. You are to be the one creating jobs.

Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. I am.

I am. That the flow of wisdom from you is extreme. Now let me tell you something about the ancient civilization. Most of the civilizations in times of old were built around major natural resources. For instance, you see settlement built around water, a body of water, and even till now. Why? Sometimes for the fishes in the water, and of course for the water itself, and for many things. Civilizations are built around that. If the Bible says, 'Out of your belly flows rivers'— Wow! There's a need, listen, to get to a point that wherever you move to, settlement follows. The problem you had was that you thought the rivers that flow from you alone is shakabada shakadabada.

I know better.

And you sing that song, out of my belly shall flow rivers. Rivers of living water. Wherever that river flows, there's life.

There's life.

See, I'm not saying these things just— I want us to go back and meditate. Let me share something. One time, and this should be about 15 years ago, I called my landlord, you know. You just get to a point in the world. I went to knock my landlord's door. I said, Baba, sit down, I want to talk to you. I'm telling you, I meditated till I became intoxicated. So I said, I want to talk to you. Imagine you, that some people needed to join force with you to contribute money to get into the house. You know, I called the landlord, I said, Baba, sit down. I said, a time is coming that news outlets and organizations will come to your house to ask which room did he stay, and they will want to document The Baba I was talking to, as at that time, was about 86. So I said, tell your children. The man sat down, was looking at me. Then one day Um, you know when some old men feel they're about to die and he just got the photographer to take his final picture with his children and he said, go and call Pastor. So I came, said, Pastor, I want you to be a part of this picture because of what you said then, so that when they come there will be a pictorial evidence. If you go to his parlor now, the picture is there. So my life had not physically changed then. You get up and get out first in your mind. Do you understand? The word God has the capacity to create. And so you get to a point that it's roaming and you're brooding and brooding, and pam, the light breaks. See, listen, everyone around you may not know, but you know. I have shifted. You just know that. Ah. See, let me tell you, there are junctions you get to, you say, ah, this is what that person found. Ah, so this is the reason why that person is like this. I found it now. Do you understand that? Yes, sir. Sit down. That's where you're going. There will be a need to build civilizations around your mind. You know, um, we went somewhere last week Monday, and it was a camp, and I said to myself And it's not the camp you might be thinking, because bloggers can go say, see what Apostle Lazarus said about this camp, be careful. Although it was a church camp, so I saw everywhere was quiet. I said, this is the wisdom of a generation. The next generation will build camps also, but it will be nations. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Because kings will not come to the brightness of our rising if all we do is shout in prayer.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Who told you that ministries cannot have research institute? Mhm.

Yes, sir.

Who told you? Why should we have people who have master's and have PhD and are looking for jobs?

Yes, sir.

We are not ready for this conversation yet in the body of Christ. Because we think that the only thing that should flow from the church is good morals. But that was not the same with Daniel. That was not the same with Joseph. We are active functionaries.

Yes, sir.

Imagine streams of ideas and productivity flowing so much from here that nobody needs a job, except maybe the person is not serious. Because that you don't have a job doesn't mean employable.

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

There's the human part. Yes, sir. But Nobody will have the audacity to say, why are you building church buildings? What God wants to do next is a radical departure.

Yes, sir. That's right.

And really, I don't care to be misunderstood. It's a radical departure. We've seen the days of universities and hospitals. Now we're going to see the days of AI, that you not just sit down and say it's, it's demonic. Everything we don't understand is always demon. Even now I have to shut down many of our operations and bring AI experts to teach us how can we integrate this to reach more souls. How can I teach and those who are in Spain are hearing in Spanish. Those who are in Saudi Arabia are hearing in Arabic. Those who are in France or Cameroon are hearing in French, yet the same message. How can God say to you that there is a spirit in man? The inspiration of the Almighty gives him understanding, and all you do with that inspiration Ishakabalabalabalaba. Let me tell you something. I found the secret very early when I was in Part 1, first semester. When my results were accumulated, I had 3.53 I cried. So I went to sit down. I don't want to— the next 4 semesters that followed, I have 5 points, stretch. Because I understand that these things ought to affect your mind so that ministry doesn't become the breeding ground for the unemployed Femi Lazarus. Sometimes what we call accusations against the church is God stirring us to change form. It's a radical awakening. If we won't do it ourselves, it will raise the Assyrians and they will boo us into Sometimes we come out and complain, and the invading children cartoon, Cocomelon now is this and all that. Can we create? Do we have the audacity to look around and say, who are those who are into animations, want to invade that world? World now. The church— and for those of you who were in that meeting yesterday, that the gate of hell will not prevail against is ecclesia, not denomination. The gate of hell can prevail against light nation unless light nation is ecclesia. What is ecclesia? House of Senate. Do you understand?

Yes, sir.

So he said, you shall remember the Lord thy God, for it is he that giveth you power to get wealth, to get every month, to get prosperity, to get the anointing, that he might confirm or establish the covenant which he swore to your fathers. And we saw that covenant which he swore to your fathers in Genesis 22:16-17. Genesis 22:16-17. You want to show us quickly? And he said, by myself, by myself I have sworn, says the Lord, for because thou hast done this thing and has not withheld thy son, thine only son— yes— that in blessing I will, what, bless you, and in multiplying I will I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven and as the sand which is upon the seashore, and your seed shall possess the gates of your enemies. It's not a coincidence that Jesus was speaking about gates when he spoke about the church. Oh yes, yes sir. It's not— they were not— it's not a coincidence. He said, I will build my church. It's a, it's a confirmation of what was established with Abraham. So when he says the seed there, now you understand what God was saying. Abraham talking about the church. When he says as far as your eyes can see, Abraham could not have seen Africa from there, so he took the eyes of the spirit. Listen, your mind is going to begin to walk over time.

Amen.

Don't be scared of poverty. The fear of poverty will make you poor because you get into— you begin to make decisions to pursue money, and that's how to be wasted. And that's why once this thing comes on your mind, you can make radical decisions because you have seen something. One time I went to barb in a place in Lagos and I saw a magazine produced by the barbing salon. Why I left banking job for barbing. I'm not against salaries if it's a work, not a job. What's the difference? A job puts food on your table. A work brings you fulfillment. If you are not happy every Monday, it's a job. Do you understand?

Yes, sir.

If every Monday you're saying, what is this now? It's a joke. Then Friday, TGIF. Oh my God. Not because you have money to ball. Because finally I no longer have to see this boss face again. Your mind start working. I've said this again and again and again and again. The most difficult thing to do on earth is to be poor. It takes effort. Too much. But I'm not here to talk about poverty also, right? Because we are easily triggered in this part of the world. I don't know why. I don't know why. It's just something that is angry. It's not you, it's a demonic spirit. It's the truth. Now look at this. The anointing can break yoke off people's neck, unnecessary yokes, yokes that they ought not to live with. Yoke that the devil enjoy placing on people's necks. I've shared with you, my spiritual daughter was sick. I called her on phone to pray with her and to be sure that she's in a good hospital, and someone was screaming. So I said, what happened to that person? Said, the child is dying. And the doctors won't take that child because of money. I said, how much? He said, deposit of 10,000. He said, the child is dying. Said, yes, tell the doctors to take that child, that I'm involved now. And I sent the money. Then the mother of the child said, give us that money, we'll take the child this way. Something Something similar to that happened recently, and this is the first time I'm talking about my involvement. I saw a video of a girl that was sick, and, um, I think they needed 1.5 million or 2.5, I can't remember again, for surgery. So they contributed the money. And then the parents use the money to buy generator, speakers, and machine. That's a bike. See, you can shout from now till tomorrow. Once there's poverty, people enter survival. See, you blame them. I don't see, but it's because there's lack. So I saw the video online, people, ah, I said, while you are arguing and telling them to go and resell this, this child will die. So I called, I reached out to the agency, how much is all these things? When they mentioned the amount, I said, is it? It is for things like that that God has blessed us. Pastors, beware. What makes the Dead Sea Dead Sea is that water flows into it, it doesn't flow out. Receiving really is not the secret. Flow, flow. I have a principle. Whenever I'm invited somewhere to preach, more than any honorarium you can give me, I sow, just so that the reason why I'm going out is not to make ends meet, but to bless the world. It's, it's a training on my own mind because the mind can become deceptive. Are you following what I'm saying here? So God is calling us into partnership with himself. And that's the reason why I make bold to tell you that it doesn't matter what you're going through, it will not be forever. I didn't hear amen to that. There is the very hand of God that lifts men out of dunghills. That hand will lift you up. God will raise people for you, and he will raise you for people. Now, I also showed you that scripture, Psalms chapter number 82. In the place of meditation, I struggle to read Psalms 82 without crying. You see, because for me, the Bible is real. It's not just some literary Psalm 82 from verse 1. Look at this. God standeth in the congregation of the mighty. Give me New King James. All right, all right. God stands in the congregation of the mighty. And many of you, you know, many Christians believe that what you tell the devil that makes him flee is King James.

Wahala!

God stands in the congregation of the mighty. He judges among the gods. How long will you judge unjustly and show partiality to the wicked? Defend the poor and the fatherless. You see What we are teaching— hold on, it's happening. I think I was talking about one of them in the course of the week, about the recent exposure in America that certain big pharmaceutical companies are holding treatments for certain ailments because that particular sickness in itself is worth hundreds of billions of dollars annually for maintenance, not cure. And yet people are dying. Listen to what I'm saying. It will not matter the volume of the prayer of Mordecai. Haman will kill them and their prayer point if Esther is not in the palace. It will not matter. The solution to the mishap in the church in Nigeria is laid down in the Bible. Elijah said 'Let me die. Am I better than my forefathers? Jezebel wants to kill me.' This is— God said there are 3 anointings that needs to flow through. One should be on Jehu, one should be on Azrael, one should be on Elisha. If there'll be continuity, one as a continuation of you, two Kingdoms. The church in Nigeria has only produced Elishas, and we bully Jehoshaphat and bully Asaiah, that once you are not holding the mic to preach, you are not spiritual. And Jezebel will intimidate us and we will run and prophesy every 4 years that the president will die, and he will live long Listen to what I'm saying. He will not just live long, he will write his own autobiography and do book launch. Then you will sit down and say, they lied, they lied. Yes, and there's nothing you can do about it. They lie. Okay, the world itself is not just— so you choose to be among the masses here and enjoy it. We are still contemplating in this age and time that does God want Christians to participate. We are still thinking, we are not sure, we are not sure. I don't know the Greek word for that.

Sí.

Now there are radical exposures. You know, sometimes it amazes me when we are still scraping the surface and people are saying out of fear, ah, we cover Apostle with the blood of Jesus. I get the love and the concern, but really, you scared? You're worried? I'm just showing you a template of what you should be doing. People's lives have been ravaged and destroyed by drug peddlers. We've been exposing that. Did you not read your Bible that he suffered kings, no one to do them harm, reproofed kings for their sake? And saying, 'Touch not, wait.' By the way, make anointed self get censored.

Ha!

If not, anointed, they chop slaps. I'm going to tell you the reason why I said that some other time. Some other time. And I see God anointing people with the spirit of boldness. That you no longer be timid. Do you understand? Yes, sir. Look at that scripture. Defend the poor and the fatherless. Do justice to the afflicted and needy. Deliver the poor and needy. Rid them— that's the word— rescue them. If you look at Amplified, out of the hands of the wicked. So it's our duty to be in partnership with God to get this done.

Femi Lazarus.

Sometimes you want to ask questions like, should there be something that the church contributes to the economy of the nation if church as an organization is not paying tax? And this been major question. In the heart of many people, because I understand that this generation is a generation that demands for accountability and for openness. So what's the usefulness of the church if the church has millions of naira or billions of naira and the church is not a taxpaying entity? So how does the church affect the economy? I'll tell you how the church ought to. Number one, Employing people. The church should grow in a level of productivity that all you employ is not pastors.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir. Number 2, the way the early church did it: welfare, attention to the needy, particularly the widows. There's no church— there's no point for the church to be boasting about abundance if there are widows that can't feed. But the first rule in welfare is that you can't do everything. So even Jesus said, the poor you'll always have, but the church should do something notably Yes, sir. So how do we then do something notably if the world keep accusing us? And because the Bible already puts us in a mold that the right hand should not see what the left hand is doing, then the church should have foundations.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir.

By so doing, the right hand can sit.

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

But in the midst of all this, the church should also beware of those whose lifestyle is to take advantage of people's kindness. Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

If a young person is hearing this and say, thank God for this kind of pastor. I go collect from here. Something is wrong with your mind. Go and walk. Yes, sir.

Yes, sir.

Something is wrong. Sometimes when people run to meet me, maybe driving and asking for alms, I check for the two arms and two legs. So where is the seat of your handicap? The mind. The mind. There are people who have issues with some part of their bodies and are still striving to get things done because the mind is not handicapped. Are you following what I'm saying here? What the Lord told me years ago is that a time is coming that my wisdom will be needed to navigate tough times in the body of Christ. He said, then will I cause your voice to be heard, that all who hear you will not lack light and direction. That's why we are speaking now, is in fulfillment of a word he spoke. Are you following what I'm saying here? So you have an assignment, and it's our collective. So when we say it's the church, who is the church? We We the people that once we come to church, we look for people who are diligent but not up to par and see how we can draw their hands up. They are diligent. They are not going about looking for who they can defraud. They are not going about looking for who they can— and I want to thank God for Light Nation. Because I've heard many times that people came to church and looked out for someone else and say, come see me, I want you. Let's give God praise for this church.

Thank you.

Are you following what I'm saying? Yes, sir. So we have a duty to function with the blessing. What do we do with it? We deliver the poor, we rescue them out of the hands of the wicked. Sickness is wicked. Affliction is wicked. These things can bend lives and twist people's journey. And before you know it, they are just there. God put you in positions to use your positions for his kingdom. You keep recognizing, it is God who brought me here, he placed me here, he gave me this opportunity, he gave me this opportunity. To be here, and I will do good with it. When the people have a kind leader, they advance. They advance. They advance. God is going to trust many of you with key position in this country. I didn't hear that amen loud enough. But hope you know that that thing will not jump to meet you.

Aha!

All right, join the platforms you should join. Ah, you feel what I'm saying now? You saw the way they described Daniel in— is it Daniel chapter number 3 now? Describing him as chief among the magicians and astrologers. But he knew in his heart, I am more than that. Are you following what I'm saying? God is anointing you for this reason, so you understand it, that I have an assignment here. I am not just climbing the ladder of power, there's a reason. There's something God is doing with my life. Look at this. Okay, Daniel. Okay, 5:11. Look at this. There is a man in your kingdom in whom is the spirit of the holy gods. And in the days of your father, light and understanding— I'm sorry, yes, and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, was found in him, whom the King Nebuchadnezzar thy father— the king, I say, thy father made him master of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers. Daniel, your same Daniel, he didn't function— he was not functioning in church, he was in the palace. This is what I'm saying. What we are doing here is to equip you to go. You are to go and do the work of ministry. You are quick to say what I'm doing is ministry. What I'm doing is equipping you to go and do ministry. That's why we are here. You are, you are a minister.

You are.

In that bank, you have to do the work of ministry. Sometimes it is what you represent that convicts the heart of men, that if this person can stand, I can. Are you following what I'm saying here?

Yes, sir.

It is what you represent. You are the one to go when you are conversing and they are wondering This guy doesn't do what we do, but yet he has what we don't want, what we don't have. And even if you don't have what they don't have, you are contented. And they are telling themselves, I can learn contentment, I can learn contentment. The way you love your wife, yes sir. The way you carry your wife on your head. And they are saying, how can a man be this young and handsome? We think this should be a criteria, that once you are young, handsome, and you have money, you should be going out after other girls. And he says no, in this kingdom we don't do like that. We are men of one wives. Why is it just the women shouting now? The men, are you still here? That shout, get as it be. Sit for a moment. That God has you as a worthy template, an example of what he wants to do. Praise God. Hallelujah. Look at what the Bible says in verse 5. Wherever you see they, put we. Just verse 5 alone. Are you there? 1, 2, 3, go! We know not, neither will we understand. We walk on in darkness, the fount of sorrow. So when you are blaming, when you are asking Why are things like this? I doubt if God is real. If God is real, there should not be problems. The Bible is saying the foundations of the earth are out of course because we have neglected our duty. The person whose existence we should doubt is not God, is yours. It's yours. God has done his, do your part. In Genesis 1, from verse 1 and 2, look at this. Genesis 1 from verse 1 and 2. In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth, and the earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon what? The face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved on the face of the waters. Verse 3, now look at it. And God said— what did Jesus say in Matthew 5? You— he said it. So God God's first step towards dissolving chaos is light. Is not light as in atmospheric light. Read your Bible. That atmospheric light will come later in Genesis 1. This light is light as in sons. So when God said, let there be light, as solution to the chaos of darkness, he's saying Let there be— put your name. What's your name there? What's your full name? Let there be Femi Lazarus at a season of darkness that he will emerge and his voice will be heard. That's what God is doing. Listen, sit down, let me show you something. The response of God to the cry of a people is a man. Can I say it again? The response of God to the cry of a people is who? Is what? Look at it. Exodus chapter number 3 from verse 1. This was, um, where God was speaking to Moses. You know what happened?

Strange.

Moses came, showed up on the scene 40 years earlier, and a guy said, 'Who has made you a captain of us? Who has made you a captain of us?' He said, 'You want to kill me?' like you killed Egyptian— uncovered him? When Moses heard it ran! That was their 390th year for them to be free; he runned for 40 years... God waited for 40 years. You know why?! Nobody that was ruled by Pharaoh was usable. Yes yes yes yes yes.

Ahh!

That's what I will tell you if you let affliction get into offense, your life won't change at all. If you don't have patience like Jesus Christ had on us here today, then we can never see freedom come upon this land again because nobody has ever seen our nation truly liberated from Egypt until now. But when they saw me standing there saying "I am coming," everybody said ahhhhhh!!! Like who kill dey Egyptians and cover dem!? When Moses head iran , dat wa zwa iwo teyu. If you let the afflictions of Nigeria gets you into offence, you will not be relevant for the emancipation of this nation. You see, listen to what I'm saying. You will be too offended to be strategic. You know why? The people you should go up and meet, you're angry.

There are—

I will tell you this, there will be people you don't like but are gatekeepers. Emotional intelligence. Yes, sir. I belong to a platform. There are 100 notable Nigerians in that platform. I won't tell you. That platform was created a while back. Since the day that platform was created Nobody has exited. You create a Christian platform, why would I add me here? Nobody.

If—

see, let me tell you, I can mention names, you'll be shocked that, ah, so Apostle, you have access to people. Listen, I don't just have access, I mentor some of them. But wait, wait, wait, nobody Once it is somebody's birthday, you will see everybody. They understand, they understand the power of relationships. They understand. But we as church people, we don't. Everyone that were ruled by Pharaoh Pharaoh already damaged something in them. Even 40 years after, that is 80 years after that boy said, 'Who made you people laugh now?' they were still not useful. God himself had to say, 'Moses, let me wipe out these guys and start something new with you.' That is when we saw God try and didn't succeed. Nobody that was taken from Egypt could make it to the wilderness.

Yes.

See, they could not enter. Pharaoh wasted them. Pharaoh was dead 40 years ago, but he was still alive in their minds. Hold on. When did Nigeria gain independence? 65 years ago. But the colonial masters are still active in our minds.

Aya!

When did you know that apples of different species can grow in Nigeria? It was when I said it for some of you. So you grew up believing that despite having the best land for farming in the world, apples don't grow here. And grapes have to be imported. You seed of Abraham, all you are doing with it here is church. What Israel is doing with it, they have a technology called, um, something something Moses technology. This thing will bring water from the air by bonding molecules of hydrogen and oxygen from the air. They have one of the worst lands for farming, but they have some of the best produce. They are thinking Seed of Abraham. Israelites were lamenting about the food, the cucumbers, the garlics, melons, the leeks they ate in Egypt freely. We are entering a phase days in the world that the most popular slogan will be 'grow your own food.' There will be many discoveries around food and the modification that they have put into it. Hence the reason why we have larger cases of infertility, of autism, of insulin resistance. One time I was using a smartwatch and I noticed every time I wear the smartwatch I get weaker. So I said, which agency do we have that is checking the effect of these radiations on our body? S-O-N. Is that what you're thinking? I didn't say anything.

Oh, oh, NAVDAC.

I will ask you a question, I will leave it there.

Why?

Ah, no, you are not the issue. Let me give you a clue. Anybody you see the Western world demonize, that's a good person.

Sela.

All the leaders that arose in Africa, apart from their measures of rulership by extension over us, they rebranded them and called them dictators because the easiest person to deceive is the majority that lack information. They will always be defeated by the minority that has information. It will trend, or you are the fool. That's why I look at you, all this social media, I say this social media is so smart. It is dumb. I have weighed it. Oh, those on X platform is the smartest platform. Look at you, where most of your influencers have been paid to chisel a narrative. Now Nigerians, it's one man they are wanting after now. This our desire. Because why? As a people, collectively, we are always not that smart. We are victims of few minority that understand the power of narratives. You see the reason why I like to pull down livestream? The other time They were going to give FRS guns. We raised the alarm here. 4 newspapers carried it. I got a call. I said, there's an emergency meeting. Your video got to some people, and then that entire thing died because we learned the voice. Few days ago I just saw that I'm on about 3 to 4 newspapers. What did I do? How Apostle Femi Lazarus met his wife on Telegram. I said, listen, I just asked myself, why are we this dumb as a people? We are having issues. Of USAID fundings. If they are funding terrorism, nobody is asking who is receiving it here. Telegram. That's the— you know why I'm teaching you like this? This is ecclesia, not a denomination.

Okay.

I mean, I've been teaching, saying things that will liberate not just the church, the nation, and the continent. How can it be that all platforms saw that I met his wife on Telegram? Listen, once the game you are playing is the game of traction, you have lost. Because you'll be attracted to only dummies. There was a time in this country that we have the likes, those who were celebrated produced were the likes of Chinua Achebe, excellent novelist. This country produced the likes of Dora Akwuiyi. How did we get here? There are some girls shaking their bum bum that are celebrities. I can go on and on and begin to call names, and you'll be amazed at the quality of minds that this nation has produced around the world. We must go back to making intellectual prowess the reason to celebrate anybody, not fine face. Yes, sir. Not some big BBLs. Not some big breasts.

The mind.

The mind. So when a girl— please sit down— goes online and begin to say, when a guy asks me, I say 500k, you know you're a dummy. And it becomes a collective knowledge. How can this happen if there's no cultural invasion? You've got to invade those cultures.
