THE GLORY OF GOD CONFERENCE || LAGOS 2024 || DAY 2

In this live teaching at the Glory of God Conference in Lagos, Pastor Femi Lazarus leads a charismatic, prophetic session that weaves extensive biblical exposition with personal visions and practical ministry activation. He opens with worship, then systematically explores key scriptures—Genesis (creation and the fall), Revelation 4 (the heavenly throne), Daniel 10 (the prophetic vision), Exodus 40 (the tabernacle and Shekinah), and Ezekiel 37—using them to illustrate humanity’s original design to commune with God, the consequences of the fall, and the pathway back to divine intimacy. Lazarus emphasizes that humanity was created “carryable” and that the loss of the Shekinah glory can be restored through child‑like faith, spiritual receptivity, and the “antenna” of the spirit. He shares personal prophetic visions (a white lion, a scroll, a hand tapping him) and calls the audience to experience the Shekinah glory, activate spiritual gifts, and receive healings. The session includes interactive prayers, laying on of hands, declarations against disease, and a commissioning of believers into apostolic, prophetic, and pastoral roles. Throughout, Lazarus stresses that true encounter is not theatrical but a transformative, supernatural invasion that changes a person’s DNA, making them a walking demonstration of the Kingdom.

Amen.
You may please be seated. Thank you. Yesterday night we had to wrap up, or I had to wrap up at the time I was just starting. So I want to believe that we can take it right off from there, right? So I want to teach you something very important. And please mind you, I am standing on the existing protocols of this meeting to honor all ministers and everyone seated. Please do well to honor yourselves. Revelation chapter number 4. And I will start the reading from verse 1. Revelations chapter number 4, I'll start reading from verse 1, and I want you to pay very important attention. Then we're going to read also the book of Daniel chapter number 10. I want to expose you to certain events. Revelation chapter number 4, from verse 1: After this I looked, and behold, a door was opened in heaven, and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me. Which said, come up, either, and I will show thee things which must be hereafter. Let's read verse 2 together. 1, 2, 3, go. And immediately I was in the spirit, and behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne. Interesting. Let me give a bit of breakdown of Revelation chapter number 4. Man, by the nature of his design, is not natural. In fact, the first scripture that introduced us to the concept of man is such that— so witty. Genesis chapter number 1, from verse 26 to 27: And God said, come, let us make man in our own image. And after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds of the sky, over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth. So God made man in his own image, in the image of God created him—
them.
And that's, that's a very serious one. So it tells us that man by the making is something deeper than a sack of flesh, but the project man was hijacked. In Genesis chapter number 3, man fell. As a matter of fact, when the Bible described the kind of fall, Bible said he fell the Lucifer fall. Now you, you, you look at the story in amazement. I always like to tell people what's going to happen before I teach for the next 20 minutes. You would have learned something that will make you so carryable in the spirit that while you are still seated, you'll be straddling between two realms. So stay with me. God had given man the instruction not to eat of the tree that is in the middle of the garden. And while Adam was busy, the serpent came to Eve and said, 'Has God said that you should not eat of every tree in the garden?' And Eve said, 'God had said we should not eat of this tree in the middle of the garden, neither should we touch There's been an extra layer. For the day we eat of it, we shall die. And the devil said, you shall not surely die, for God knows that the day you eat of it, you'll be wise, you'll be like him, knowing good and evil. And the Bible said Eve saw the tree, that it was pleasant to the eyes. Such that one should desire to make one wise. And she took of it and ate, and nothing happened. The glory was still there. She ate, but she did something extra. She was gracious enough to keep for her husband. And when Adam came And he saw that she had eaten and she will die. And Adam ate. That's the declaration of war on the system of God. Adam had preferred Eve than God, or to God. And the moment They had— they were stripped of the glory and they knew nakedness, they knew shame. Suddenly we heard the voice of God walking in the cool of the evening in the garden, and man that was designed to interface with God now was hiding. And God had to call out, Adam! 'Where are you?' When God asks about location, it's not because he needs GPS. It's because they were missing where he kept them. And he said, 'We heard your voice and we hid ourselves, for we are naked.' But man was designed to interact with divinity.
That was your makeup.
As a matter of fact, the anatomy of the first man, the external layer— listen to this— the external layer was not clothed.
Cloth was an aftermath of the fall. They needed no cloth.
Why?
Because glory is a covering.
It was when they fell that they knew nakedness, and that was when they made fig leaves to hide themselves. That's where religion was born, that you come before God and you feel so naked, like God doesn't want me in his presence, like my sins are laid so bare in his presence I need to hide and cover myself with some gymnastics in church. Oh Lord, I lift my hands, but you still feel naked.
And God came down in Genesis 3, and the Bible said he made apron with a sheepskin and covered them with it. That was a typology of the Christ that is to come, the sacrificial lamb, one whose covering becomes our very nature. And he covered them with it. He made that provision. The second time we will see that being done was in Genesis 27, and I quoted from that yesterday. Rebecca told Jacob, your father Isaac had decided to give your blessing to your brother.
Now go get a kid, let's kill the kid, and you present this to him and he will bless you.
You know what Jacob said? Jacob said, what will happen when my father finds out that I'm Jacob and not Esau? He will curse me. Rebecca said, let the curse be on me. And she also did what God did in Genesis 3, kill the ram and clothed him with it. And Jacob could now boldly enter the presence of Isaac. And the Bible said Isaac took him and smelled the smell of his what? Raiment. What was the raiment?
The lamb that was killed. That's a typology of Christ.
He smelled it. And what did he say? The smell of my son is as the smell of a field that the Lord has blessed. The blessed field. And then he was provoked. The Lord my God give you the dew of heaven and of the fatness of the earth. Be lord over your brothers. But That's, that's, that's the Lamb. That's Christ.
That a generation will come in Hebrews 4:16, that we can now therefore come boldly before the throne of grace.
When he touched him, he said, this is the body, this is the skin of Esau, but the voice of Jacob. Now when I come before God, it is the voice of Femi Lazarus, but the person of Christ. I can stand in his presence. In Luke chapter number 1, when Gabriel was speaking to Mary, Mary had questions, and then he educated her. How shall these things be? The Holy Ghost will come upon you. When he got to Zechariah, a man who ought to be familiar with the presence, and when he doubted, Gabriel said, I am Gabriel. I stand before the presence of God. That's my credential. You have a credential. You have a credential that we stand— in case you don't understand how deep it is when we say God is here, he didn't send representative, he's here. That when you stand alone worshiping. The King of Kings is there in person. My question is, how did we fall so bad or so badly that we no longer have the ability to interact with divinity? That the things of the spirit look so far, and you are trying to search God with your mind. No, it's a spiritual thing. And that's why I read that Revelation chapter number 4. He said, and I beheld a door was open in front of me, and I heard a voice You are going to begin to see the things of the Spirit. I didn't hear amen to that. Do you believe it? You are going to begin to hear the voice of the Spirit.
You are going to begin to hear sounds from heaven.
Hey, in Acts of the Apostles chapter number 2, they gathered themselves one, 20 brethren, as Jesus had commanded them.
To pray, to wait for the promise of the Father. And the Bible said—
listen to this—
while they were praying, a sound—
it was a literal sound. You need to understand that. You see, because we try to, in our exegesis, talk out encounters. If the Old Testament was a type and shadow, how come it is looking more real than the real? That Moses wouldn't have the Holy Ghost will say, I won't go with them unless you show me your glory. And God will take Moses, and God will hide Moses in the rock, and God will cover the face of Moses. And God will pass in front of Moses, and God will proclaim the name of the Lord. How many God?
That's our—
never get to the point that you are now full of head knowledge but no experience. That's the bane of this generation. We can talk theory.
But we are not deep.
Some don't even believe in the supernatural anymore. Some believe that every healing is staged. There are questions being asked, and they are not just casting aspersion on Christianity. They are asking for sons to declare their sonship. If you ever had read that scripture that the endless expectation of creation waits for the manifestation of sons of God, This is the time and this is the era. But this is where I'm going. How do you get to the point where your relationship with God gets so real and your interaction with the heavenlies gets so real that you become like a child in the hands of God? One who can be drawn, one who can be shown, one who can be carried And you must understand that encounters, the realm of encounters, is not cinema. It's not for fun. It is for preservation, that you become one that God can reveal his glory to. I tried to show you a scripture yesterday. I don't know if they have, but let me quote it. Psalms chapter number 51 from verse 16. If you have Message translation, we read the both, but give me King James. Thou desirest not in sacrifice, else I would have given it. Thou desirest not in burnt offering, else— yeah, all right. Yes, verse 17. Now, going through the motions. Somebody say, going through the motions. Go back to 16.
Going through—
doesn't please you. You know, sometimes you want to help God. Like a worship is going on and you want to force tears. When it touches you, you will know. You will not have to force it. You will see how frail you are. I'm a man. I'm an alpha male, nothing dey happen. When you see him as he is, kai. How sweet it is to see him face to face and know that this is the Jesus we've been reading about. He's alive. Going through the motions doesn't please you. A flawless performance is nothing to you. Yes, the next verse. Let's read together. 1, 2, 3, go! I learned God worship when my pride was shattered. Heart-shattered lives ready for love don't for a moment escape God. Have you seen a very fine girl fall in love with a fool? Huh, you've not seen it? I, I know one. Oh yes, I know one, and I'm sorry to expose the person, but I'm going to tell you who the— I know a very fine girl around, married a fool. This is going to cause problem, but I don't mind. Should I tell you her name? You don't mind me being dragged, right? I don't mind too. Her name is Abigail. She married a man called Nabal. Oh yes, she said by interpretation he's a fool, that's his name.
No girl knows scripture like a girl who loves a mumu.
They say according to the book of Deuteronomy, God told me this, I know what I saw, I know. Now imagine in deeper measure falling in love with Jesus that you always can't wait for people to get out of your sight to be alone with him. That when the doors are shut, it is no longer an avenue to sin. But to fellowship. You just want to. Look at what David said in Psalms chapter number 42. Let's start reading from verse 1, Message Translation. And I want to appreciate the media for going to get Message Translation.
Grateful.
You know, when I go for meetings I'm not really interested about atmosphere, whether there's keyboard, whether it's going slow or going this. We are the atmosphere. That's why I talk the way I talk. The glory will eat this place and you carry something.
Look at what David said. A whitetail deer drinks from the creek. I want to drink God. Deep drought of God.
Verse 2 now.
I am thirsty for God. Alive. I wonder, will I ever make it? Arrive and drink in God's presence.
When you see a man who is drunk, he doesn't perceive reality the way you perceive it.
Something is altered. His mind breaks. He's seeing something differently. He sees cars, he's not afraid.
There's audacity that comes with drunkenness. You are too normal, that's why you're afraid.
There is the boldness that comes with what? Drunkenness. A small girl met Peter and said, Peter, I know you, you follow Jesus, the one who said I'm ready to die with you. Say, if I know him, I bend. Another girl saw him. Hey, Peter, Peter, Peter, now you, now you go buy fish. That time I, I know you.
Me?
Who even told them my name is Peter?
But something happened in the book of Acts of the Apostles 2, that when a sound from heaven filled the room where they were seated and a cloud with tongues of fire sat on their head, Then Peter rose up in the midst of the 12 and said, this was that which was prophesied by Joel, that it will come to pass, I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh.
Something had changed.
You don't fake it.
When it comes, it will be announced.
You are not trying to look like it. There is no way to walk anointed. There is no way.
There is no intonation for the anointing. Anyhow you are, it will be anointed like that.
There's no— are you there? He wasn't trying to look like it. And in Acts chapter number 3, they went to the temple at the hour of prayer, and they met the man who's always been there in the day they've not been drunk.
And the man looked at them, hoping to receive alms as usual. Then it was Peter who said, look on us. Silver and gold we have not, but such as I have— I don't know about him, but such as I have, I give you. In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, get up and walk.
And while the man was limping, he was too drunk, he picked him by the hand.
That this thing overwhelms you and you are looking for where the next dead body is because you can't help it. It's the anointing of the Holy Ghost. That's the glory of his presence. We want to drink God alive. When this thing comes upon you, it makes you a wonder to the world. You will look at yourself and know you have become another person. You have become strange. Something has been altered in your DNA. What you have now is the divine nature of the Almighty. You are no longer the same person again. How did John get to the point where he said, and I beheld, and a window was opened? Let me show you a scripture. Are you with me? Can I have the two protocols? I want to— please come. You come, my brother. You, brother, please come. I want to— I know you are protocol men. Even me, they are protocol. I'm afraid, but it's okay. So is it me you are protocoling?
Me?
So I want to invite you to another department, and that's drama. Okay, so who amongst you can faint? Can you? Okay, stand here, face me.
Pow!
He died safely. So dead man don't laugh. As the heaven is higher than the earth, so is my ways higher than your ways, and my thought than your thought. The distance here between the man that is dead and the one that is alive is not kilometers, it is realms. Listen, when Jesus stood before the tomb of Lazarus and he said, Lazarus, comfort, the voice was not entering the tomb, it was entering the realm where Lazarus was. A natural man cannot receive the things of the spirit. It might be around, but it doesn't have the features it takes to receive. Let me give you an instance. While we are seated here, there are different wavelengths here. If you bring a radio here and bring out the antenna and switch it on, then you will know that there are wavelengths of different FM here. But by your own nature, you were not designed to tap into those wavelengths. A natural man doesn't have the features to tap into the wavelengths of the spirit. For instance, we can all sit in this meeting and someone who is in tune can pick a wavelength of an instruction from God that will turn the body of Christ around. Let me give you an instance. I can pick my phone and send a message directly to Abi, or I call her on my WhatsApp, it will ring on our phone because it is directly sent. But we all can belong to the same WhatsApp group and I send a general message. Just help them that the first person to reach the front will receive ₦100 million from me. You are on the WhatsApp group, but your internet connection is switched off. You are a Christian, but you are not in the spirit. And once you are not in the spirit, you will miss Kairos moment, because once there's an extension of information from heaven, it It takes the one who is dwelling there to hear it. So when John— why did you wake up? When John— because you see, my heart is heavy. I'm just tired of noise and people thinking we are lying. That it's so bad that encounters that are basic, like Daddy Geo saying he was drinking tea, will trend. How bad have we fallen? How bad have we fallen? In John 21, Jesus, who had died and resurrected, he was eating bread and fish with them. That's post-resurrection. And many of you don't know that many of those things flying is an attack against your receptacles for encounters. You get to a point you become so literal, so literal, there's nothing left of you but speck of dust. You can't receive from God. I'm saying right where you are seated, you can get to a point where you are so in tune. Let me share a story. Don't, don't wake up, don't wake up. I'll call you once I do the miracle with more strength. I remember years back on campus, I just learned prayer as a lifestyle, so I decided to fast 3 days. God, I just want to know you more. Just reveal yourself to me, reveal yourself to me. And I was there. I used to pray in an Anglican church. And on the third day, I was quite tired because I didn't even know that people used to drink water when they are fasting dry. I didn't know. And now people drink juice. Some food fasting and the person taking banana and groundnut. Antique mango juice.
Amen.
And while I was there, you know, some of you get it wrong, and I'm teaching you both in words and practical because you feel you have to be composed. If you laugh, the Holy Ghost will go away, then you have to engineer to call him back. It is even with joy itself that you draw. I tell you to laugh now. They give 12 people new cups of wine. It will shock you. Now laugh.
Okay.
Is an atmosphere of the spirit.
Amen.
Don't drink responsibly.
No. Hey, amen.
And while I was there I was laying down on the bench, I was tired, and I was just singing and calling him Lion of the Tribe of Judah. So I slept off and I had a vision. And in that vision, I was in the same place where we were praying, where I was praying, and I was at the back, far back, and I was looking from the podium, like a small white lion was there. And in that vision, the white lion was walking towards me, and the closer it got, the bigger it was. So much so that by the time the lion was standing in front of me, I was looking up And there was such an atmosphere in that vision that in the vision I ran away. You understand? Like you just have sense.
I ran.
And when I woke up from the vision, I said, oh, it was a dream. Then it occurred to me that the atmosphere I saw in that vision was there. And physically I ran. And while I was running, I felt like a hand tapped me from behind and said, "See." That was all I heard. And as I looked, it was like a book, a scroll was opened. And as I was trying to read the scroll, It was like it had the ability to draw me into it, and I was seeing events play out, and everything looked like 5 minutes. Then I woke up, and I saw fellowship brothers and sisters were around my bed, and they were praying, and they said, we Shout! We came out and Femi Lazarus—
me—
and they said, you've been here for over 3 hours. That's the beginning of seeing and hearing in the spirit.
Listen.
God told me, no matter how dead an atmosphere is, when you show up, I will invade it. If you read the account of Daniel chapter number 10, we start reading from verse 3. Daniel had prepared himself to seek the face of God, and he said, I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all till 3 whole weeks were fulfilled. You know, as I teach, I spoke about being in tune with the antenna. Yeah, there are wavelengths here of the Spirit, and you are going to begin to catch it one by one. Okay, it's going to be serious impartations even as I teach. Look at it. Till 3 weeks were fulfilled. Yes, verse 4. And in the 4 20th day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river which is Hidekel.
Yes.
Then I lifted up mine eyes and looked. Behold, a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz. Yes. His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes like lamps of fire, and his hands and his feet like color to polished brass, and the voice of his words was like the voice of a multitude. Yes, quickly. And I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men that were with me saw not the vision, but a great quaking fell upon them so that they fled to hide themselves. By what understanding did Daniel get to the point where he was so carryable?
Because that's where I'm going, to become so light, so light you can be drawn in the spirit, so light that the man who is dead come encounter with you and they are dragged in the spirit, that you can switch realms, that you are no longer heavy with superfluity of nothingness, no longer heavy with strife, with hatred, no longer heavy with deceit.
You have become a child. One who is karibu, that can switch. He said, I saw him, but the people around me didn't see anything, but they felt something. So beyond feeling, there is the real realm. And it's not just feeling, you are drawn to it. And guess what? It is a heart thing, that there is a work done on your heart. You become like a child, that when you— it becomes very easy for God to see through your eyes, to speak through your mouth, to hear through your ears. That you become a walking demonstration of thy kingdom come. You can host God. You can walk in depth of unbelievable experiences with God such that will become too sacred to talk about, such that you will have no human vocabularies to describe. That was the experience of Ezekiel in Ezekiel 37.
Look at the experience.
Ezekiel 37, let's start reading from verse 1. The hand of the Lord was upon me and carried me. Kai, lift your hands. Say, I yield myself. Come on, say it again.
To be carried.
Okay, say it again. I yield myself to be carried. I refuse to be heavy in God's hands. From this moment, I become carryable by God.
From this moment, I become carryable by his spirit. From this moment, I am no longer difficult. I yield to the spirit I yield to the Spirit. I yield to the Spirit from today. Sweet Jesus, reveal yourself to me.
Can you please rise, everyone, in the next couple of minutes? Amen. Let's help those under the anointing. Amen. Amen. I want to show you something. I'm still trying to get you into the practicals of this. Listen to what I'm saying. You will not just feel, you will see. Listen, oh, and you are not even trying to humanly engineer nothing. Father, just 3 people As I speak, mark them now. Make it fast. 1, 2, 3, touch! Let it be a carrying, a carrying. Just 3. Pay attention, pay attention. Thank you, Lord. Amen, amen, amen. Pay attention, pay attention. Just help them. Don't worry, it will go around. It will, I bet you it will. Pay attention, I want to show you a scripture. Pay attention. Pay attention. The book of Exodus chapter number 40. Just help those under the anointing. I still want you to listen. God had given Moses an instruction about the tabernacle. Which we know also was a type and a shadow. And we read from verse 33, Exodus 40, from verse 33. And he reared up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the hanging of the court gate.
So Moses finished the work. Verse 34: Then a cloud, as a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the Lord filled. So there is a kind of meeting where the heavens part open and there's an invasion of a glory that fills the tabernacle.
Listen to this. Look at verse 34, verse 35. Now quickly walk with me.
So Moses was not able to enter the tent of the congregation because the cloud above the Aron and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. The root word there was Shekinah. There is the Shekinah glory, the visible manifestation. Of his invading presence. He invades, he invades. It's not just a feeling. We've held meetings that you can see the cloud come and you can't explain, you have no words. We've held meetings that you have to suspend all our program.
Because the Lord is here. The Shekinah glory. And that's what I've come to introduce you to. Now lift your hands where you stand. When the glory fills the house, it gives gifts to men. He opens the prison doors. He heals the sick. He sets the oppressed free. Every possibility of the atmosphere of glory At the count of 3, I command them to begin to happen now. 1, 2, 3.
From my right to the middle to the left, let the doors be open now. Let the sick be healed. Let your past be set free. Let gifts be activated. Let there be a release from heaven. Let the sick be healed. Let gifts be activated. Let your past be set free. Let the glory fill this place.
Amen.
I hear the Lord say, separate unto me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them. There is a commissioning going on. There are men separated for offices.
I call upon the grace upon the apostles Prophets, teachers, pastors, evangelists, wherever they are here, be activated now! Let teachers be quickened, let evangelists be summoned, let pastors be called, let prophets awake, let apostles be revived! Let there be an opening that the Shekinah glory descends.
Amen.
Look at me. Look up, everyone. Don't worry, don't worry. Look up. You are carrying this atmosphere home.
Look up.
I want to show you something before I go.
Look up.
Sometimes you don't waste your time trying to get sicknesses to go. You raise the bar of glory. Glory, then they shrink. Is that okay? So even in the atmosphere of glory, healings, healings. Lumps, growths, fibroids, cysts, they are melting out and disappearing. Bent bones are straightening out. Oh yes, blurry visions, blind eyes, deaf ears are popping open.
Because when the glory invades, heaven comes, and there is no limitation.
There's no hindrance. There's no limitation in the atmosphere. So I take authority over sicknesses under this atmosphere of glory. Dematerialize. Let HIV/AIDS disappear. Let cancers get out! Let diabetes get out!
In the name of Jesus, let healings of all kinds begin to take place now!
Sorry, I hear the name Wally. I don't like to lay hands on people suddenly, but the Lord wants me to pray for him. Wally, where is he? If you are here, run out. If you are many, I know where the one I'm asking for coming. Is this the only one? Oh, thank you. Thank you, Lord. Is it the only one?
Where are you from? Thank you, Lord.
Thank you, Lord Jesus. Thank you, Lord. I ask that from this afternoon your systems are open to interact with the glory of God. You will see, you will hear, you will know. Everywhere you step, the possibility of heaven shows up. It is done in Jesus' name.
Hallelujah!
Can we sustain that atmosphere of prayer? Is that okay? There's a glory cloud here. We can as well drink. Impact. What are you going to do with
More from Femi

Wisdom born from pain recruits people into bitterness, offence and wrong decisions.

Can we serve God and fail? If you’re not doing the right things,you can love God and still struggle.

The people who stand before king are not merely gifted. They are skilled and diligent in their work.

Get ready for another session of Public School with Femi Lazarus this Sunday.

If those you trust question what you see, will you still have the courage to move forward?
