MOSES HAD A REASON TO BE HUMBLE:
IN HIS ENGAGING GOD, HE DISCOVERED HIMSELF.

MSG TITLE: Engaging, Experiencing and Exploring God

To engage God. These people ask questions. They are not passive. I want to say to you that A GENUINE CHRISTIAN EXPERIENCE WITH GOD IS NOT PASSIVE, IT IS AN ACTIVE INTERACTION AND IT'S AN INTERACTION THAT ALLOWS FOR QUESTIONS. God is not looking for people that when God said, “I am God”. And they will say Yes, Sir.

God appeared to Moses and said, I am the Lord God of Abraham, of Isaac. I have come to deliver my people. Moses said, Thank you. But excuse me, what is your name?
Now I'm asking you, do you know that we have Christians nowadays that don't ask questions. These brothers that experienced God in their lives, they did so because they engaged Him.
“What is your name? If I get there, and they said who is he that appeared to you? Who would I say appeared to me? What if they don't believe that you appeared to me. What do I say?” Do you understand that? You may say, maybe that was unbelief. No, that's not unbelief at all. God enjoys that. He loves it. He gives allowance in our experiencing him, he gives allowance for us to express ourselves and say, excuse me, who are you?

That's why the present-day preacher baffles me a lot. Even God will allow me to ask him questions; “Who are you?” But the modern-day preacher says, obey your prophets that you may prosper. I preached and you are asking question, who are you? I told you that it was by revelation from the spirit, and you are asking question. If you do this next time, I will deal with you by the anointing.

You see, but the God, the God of all universes allows room for men like me to do what? To engage him, to ask him questions and say, excuse me, please, “who are you?”

Moses said, excuse me, “who are you Sir?” I am the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob. But they will ask me what is his name? Is that your name?

Now, Oh God, are you understanding what I'm talking about here? Here are men; in order to experience God, they engaged him. Do you know what God had to do that day? He had to bring out from his archives His special name, because this boy will not go.

He said OK, when you go there, tell them. I AM; I AM that I AM has appeared to you and he is the one who sent me to you? If you read your Bible from Genesis to that Exodus, chapter 3, that name has never come out. Somebody brought it up. Who brought it out? Moses. A man who is willing to engage God.

Do you know that our own generation is very poor? There is no originality with us. Most of what I see our modern-day preachers do is copycat. If they heard that somebody is doing something in America, next week, they will start doing the same kind of thing here. They're just copycats. They are not bold enough to step into God's presence and say, father, what is it that you are doing? And why are you doing this? And let's have authentic revelation of God coming to us. Hallelujah.

And you know, we thank God for men like Moses that allowed us to know that the God we serve is the I AM that I AM. Nobody would have known. It will have remained inside God.
Moses said, well, because I can't go. “I am the God of Abraham”, please what is his name? Anybody can say I am the God of Abraham, God of Isaac, God of Israel. It’s a common talk.
He said excuse me, Sir. I know, but what if they don't believe me? What do I do? Do you know that it's engagement that brought forth all that Moses got from God?

Can I remind you? God asked, what is in your hand? That's my Rod. You know the reason why that came out was simply because he wouldn't go without an authentic experience. I know for some of us, fear, God has spoken, who am I to query him? So, we must go. Even when there is nothing authentic in our spirit. Are you hearing what I'm talking about?

So, when you go, there's nothing you are going with. What is your hand, he said it’s my rod? And he said, drop it. When he dropped it, his rod, the thing became snake. He began to run.
God said now pick it, pick it from the tail. How many of you have caught Snake before? I have caught snake before. Where, if you were to catch snake, what is the best place to catch snake? It's on the neck and you must hold it properly so that the thing doesn't do like this. How can you go and catch snake by the tail? Do you want to die? Moses said God, really you want to kill me today.

So, God said pick it, take it by the tail and as he stretched forth his hand and he took it. It became the rod again. Do you know from that day? As far as Moses is concerned, what did he call that rod now? THE ROD OF GOD.

You know, he wouldn't know what was in that rod except he had asked questions. Do you know that for so many of us, we yet have not discovered the value of what God has placed in our lives. All because we are passive. We've never asked. We've never engaged him.

HOW WILL YOU EXPERIENCE GOD? HOW WILL YOU BRING A TRANSMISSION OF THE FULLNESS OF THE GODHEAD INTO OUR LOCAL SITUATION? EXCEPT SOMEBODY IS WILLING TO SAY; OH GOD, HOW IS IT?

The Bible said, as he carried that rod. I imagine the way he carried it as he was going home now. He carried it with a different sense. Do you know that he carried it with a difference sense? Now he knew; When he got to the house; usually before when he returned from his normal moving up and down with the sheep, what does he do with the rod? He would just drop it anyhow. This time he knew that if you drop it anyhow, something may come out.

So how did he carry it now? His wife said why don't you drop it? He said no, this is the Rod of God. This is what God has asked me to carry back to Egypt. IT REALLY PLEASED ME THAT MOSES MET GOD.

Whereas, when Jacob was returning from his father-in-law; he carried cattle, he stole gods and all of those. BUT THE DAY MOSES WAS GOING BACK. HE ONLY WENT WITH THAT ROD. NO CATTLE, NOTHING. EVEN HIS WIFE AND CHILDREN, HE LEFT THEM BEHIND. HE HAD GOT SOMETHING SUFFICIENT TO FACE EGYPT. HOW DID HE GET IT? HE ENGAGED GOD.

Brothers, some of us, we are in ministry. That's wonderful. But why are we so weak in what we are doing? Why do we call the name of God? And yet in our heart we tremble because we don't know whom we call. We've never engaged him.

I FOUND SOMETHING THAT MEN THAT EXPERIENCE GOD, THEY WERE NOT AFRAID TO DO WHAT? TO ENGAGE HIM, TO ENGAGE HIM IN DISCUSSIONS, TO ENGAGE HIM IN QUESTION AND ANSWER, TO ENGAGING BY CHALLENGING WHAT HE SAID, CHALLENGING THE INTEGRITY OF HIS WORD. AND YET YOU SAY NO, NO, NO, NO, YOU DON'T DO THAT. GOD IS WILLING TO BE ENGAGED.

And I thank God as he carried Rod; He was with the Rod, he knew that there's something here. But God didn't allow him to go yet because if he went only with that understanding of what is in the rod; He may, he may misbehave. So, because I stretch out your hand, he did. God said put it here (under your armpit), and he did. God said bring it out. What did he discover? Complete leprosy. You see? You mean? I thought I was a handsome young man.
What? Prince Moses!!!

So under my armpit is what is leprosy? My God, Oh. God said put it back. Then everything was restored.
What Almighty God you are.
What a mighty God you are!
As he went, I noticed that all through the Ministry of Moses, there is something he never did. HE NEVER PUT HIS HAND UNDER HIS ARMPIT. You know when you read, Moses was meek and that he was humble. You thought it was arbitrary; he had a reason to be humble. He knew that to beat his chest is to become a l***r.

IN HIS ENGAGING GOD, HE DISCOVERED HIMSELF. Brothers, we can't experience God in reality, if we are passive believers. In fact, God loves you to engage him, please take note of that. God is not going to kill you because you ask questions. God is not going to punish you because you dared to ask him and say, why is this? this is not unbelief. God loves to give answers to your questions. Hallelujah.

But you know that is strange in Africa. Do you know that is strange in our culture? What is in our culture? When elders speak, what do you do? You keep quiet. Whether you believe or not, what do you say? Yes. That's our culture. And I'll tell you a secret, that looks good because we easily believe. But because it has no root in ourselves, that belief is not for us to commit ourselves onto something serious.
Now, that kind of thing is good for and on certain things, but it's not good enough for experiencing God. To experience God and to bring down the glory of his power into our generation, we must be men that are bold to say Father, why is this? Why is this?

A PRACTICAL WAYS TO PRAY AND GET ANSWERS

I wish our requests to collapse into one. Do you know that all the men that did great works for God? I have come to understand that had only one prayer request. They didn't have two.

I have come to discover that maybe when they were training us how to pray, and it's wonderful that when we were being trained on how to pray, how to table our requests, we were taught and that was great. We were taught to take a notebook of prayer requests.

How many of you remember we were taught that? And you will list the requests:

I'm Asking For A Wife.
I'm Asking For A Car
I'm Asking For Admission.
I’m Asking For This And That.
And you have put all these requests 1 to 20. And then we are praying every day about it.

When you got a wife, you came and ticked, prayer answered. Then, the one that remained, it remains a car. Oh God, you that gave me a wife, you will also give me a car in the name of Jesus.

When a car came, what did we do? You ticked that, prayer answered. Now, oh God. You remember that on my list, you've not answered Number 2, Number 2. How could I have a wife, a car and there's nowhere to park that car?

I need a house. Father, in the name of Jesus, you have told us that we should not be worried about anything; but I should ask you anything I like and what I'm asking you for today, oh, God, I'm asking for your help. Give me a house

All we are saying.
Give me House.
In the name of Jesus. And all you demons that are standing against my house, I rebuke you, I bind you in the name of Jesus.

Now that was good to train us in the art of praying. And to be able to come back and say the things we ask as God answered yes, has God answered? Yes.

We thought that asking God for one thing repeatedly every day of our life will be too boring. And so, WE WERE USED TO ASKING FOR THINGS, at the expense of asking for the, what I call the determinant matter – KNOWING GOD. Maybe that's why. It's become me a difficult issue for us to come out of that Mold today.

Maybe that's why when we leave here now and say, let us pray, the issues will be scattered everywhere and people will say, God, you know, you know this, we need this, we need that.

THERE ARE CERTAIN THINGS THAT IF WE WILL ASK GOD TODAY, AND WE PROGRESSIVELY EXPLORE THAT, AND SEEK THAT UNTIL WE BECOME ONE WITH HIM, MANY OTHER THINGS THAT WE DID NOT ASK FOR WILL BE DROPPING ON OUR PATHS.

WHEN WE EXPLORE GOD, LISTEN, WE ARE NOT WASTING TIME. WHEN GOD DOMINATES OUR PRAYER, when our cries are ‘that I may know him’. And Paul doesn't have another prayer request. He said one thing will I seek after. All I want is that I may know him, the power of His resurrection. That I may be more conformed to his death.
Yes, everywhere he went, he kept asking for that. AND WHAT IS IT THAT THIS MAN DID NOT HAVE? THAT WAS HIS PRAYER.

MSG TITLE: WHAT DISQUALIFIES A MAN FOR SERVICE

The unfortunate thing is this, because God's rating of a life is cumulative. Oh my God, do you understand what I mean when we say God's assessment is cumulative. What it means is that one is on top of another, and the final assessment is the FINAL ASSESSMENT. Oh my God. He said, if a man had been righteous all his life, and he turned to wickedness, all his righteousness would be assessed as a wicked man. So, even getting approval with God, how long should I get that approval? Continuously. Every day. Every day. Every time.

What was the reason why God did not have respect unto Cain and to his offering? Let's quickly search now. Look at it in verse 5. “But unto Cain and his offering he had not respect. And Cain was what? Very angry. Excuse me, friends. Cain was Very angry. Angry for what?

Do you know that every anger is a manifestation of pride. You don’t understand. You see, every time you are angry, can I tell you what you are saying? You don't want me to tell what you are saying? YOU ARE SAYING, WHY SHOULD THEY DO SUCH A THING TO ME, A PERSON OF MY CALIBRE. How can you do that to me? Do you know that every time you are angry, your hand is on your chest? Your hand is beating your chest. You are saying after all that I have done for them, they don't even recognize somebody.
“I'M TALKING, YOU ARE TALKING.” WHO ARE YOU?

Sometimes we are in church; you are in a church committee meeting; Or in the choir practice. Just because the choir master said we will not sing your song; what did you do? You got angry and you took your handset and your handbag, and you walked away. You said, let's see how they will make it.
Why are you thinking like that? You are having an exaggerated sense of your importance. You are thinking that without your voice, the choir will not hold. That's why you are angry now?

God had no respect to Cain because he was a man, a violent man, who in his heart was actually saying; I want to tell you what he was saying. “HE WAS SAYING GOD IS OBLIGATED TO HONOUR ME”, AND IF HE DOES NOT HONOUR ME, I AM ANNOYED. He was angry with God, for God taking his own decision over him. Aah, So, if God accepted his offering, he would have thought it was because of his hard work. He would have thought that the respect that God will have for him and for his offering Is well deserved. A proud man.

Some of you, your anger, your anger against a brother or a sister, or even your wife or your husband was simply because, something in you is saying:
“He ought not to talk to me like that”.
“And that even if you want to talk to me, you should have known how to address somebody”.
“If you want to talk, why did you shout on me?”
“Excuse me, why are you shouting?”
“Are you shouting because I'm deaf or what?”
“Am I a dog that you are barking at me”.
“It's OK. It's OK. I am even making a mistake talking with a useless nonentity like you, silence is the best answer for a fool”. Then you put your in your pocket and you left.

So, he comes to you, it may be your husband and said, darling, and you say what? Sorry na, sorry for yourself. ‘It's time now we must define things in this house’.
If not, the way fate landed me in your house, there were better men that were running after me. The one that is a professor today, he wrote me letters. I don't know what pushed me to say yes to an ingrate like you. You are not even thankful that I lowered myself to marry you.

And I know when I married you; I know what you are. Did you have anything in your house? I closed my eyes to marry you, hoping that something good will come out of you. Only for you to be shouting on me. And you are shouting at me in front of children.

IS THAT YOU? YOU MUST REPENT QUICKLY.

YOU SEE THE ISSUE IS WHEN GOD LOOKS, HE DOESN'T LOOK AT YOUR OFFERING; HE DOESN'T LOOK AT YOUR HAND, HE DOESN'T LOOK AT WHAT YOU ARE DOING, HE LOOKS AT WHO YOU ARE. GOD IS SAYING, CAN I ACCEPT THIS MAN? Can I accept a man that is like this? That if I allow my work to grow in his hand, one day, he will take over and use it against me.

SERVING GOD ACCEPTABLY DOES NOT BEGIN WITH SERVING GOD. IT BEGINS WITH BEING AN ACCEPTABLE MAN OF GOD, AND THIS IS CONTINUOUS. Please listen to me. It is not an initial prerequisite alone. IT IS AN INITIAL BUT IT'S ALSO A CONTINUOUS, CUMULATIVE PREREQUISITE.

Am I making it difficult for you?
IF HE ACCEPTS ME NOW, I MUST CONTINUE TO MEET UP WITH HIS CONDITION FOR ACCEPTABILITY. If he has opened his hand to me today, I must continue to remain in his good books. So that what I'm doing can be acceptable. IT DOESN'T TAKE ANYTHING FOR A BIG WORK TO BE DISCARDED BY GOD. ONCE THE MAN IS NO MORE ACCEPTED BY HIM.

“ARE YOU GOING AGAIN?”

Oh, did you see the drama at the Garden of Eden? Did you see the drama? When the Serpent deceived the woman and all that happened. You know my first surprise was that when God came. He said, Adam where are you?

That question, I have not been able to overcome it.
WHERE ARE YOU, WHEN THE DEVIL RAVAGED YOUR HOME?
WHERE ARE YOU, WHEN YOUR WIFE BEGAN TO HAVE DISCUSSION WITH SERPENT?
WHERE ARE YOU WHEN SHE BECAME THE SOURCE OF INFORMATION?

You know, I was just thinking that the whole problem would have been solved if that woman just did one thing. I've always been telling women wherever I preach to them; I said there's only one thing that you will do, and your life will be correct. They asked, what is that? I said, SUBMIT YOUR OWN HUSBAND, DEFER TO HIM, LET HIM HANDLE THE MATTER.

I wish that the woman simply told Serpent, regarding that issue you are asking, ask my husband, discuss with him. He has details. Do you know that the matter will have been settled? Do you know that all that Adam would have simply done that day was to tell the Serpent, what's your concern about that? Do you know that I called you who you are? Do you know that Adam had power to discipline the serpent. Where was he? He was not on duty. The Bible said, he said the woman whom thou gave to be with me, gave me, and I did it. THE WOMAN “GAVE ME” DID YOU SEE THE CHANGE OF ORDER?

Now.
I was watching what God will say, whether God will say well since you are not the one who did it? But you see, when you listen to what God said, God said ‘in Genesis 3, he said, since you have harkened to the voice of your wife rather than what I have told you to do; cursed be the ground for your sake.

HIS PUNISHMENT? LISTEN, IS NOT JUST THAT HE ATE. GOD ASKED A QUESTION; WHO TOLD YOU? WHOSE INSTRUCTION ARE YOU TAKING NOW? Men, yes, I'm not advocating that women should be silent. That's not what I'm preaching about today. Don't go home and say all women should be silent in church. I've not said that. I've not said that. I'm saying something that would have made that possible. IF THEY WILL BE SILENT, WHERE ARE THE MEN WHO ARE TEACHERS IN THEIR HOME?

IF THEY WILL ASK ANYTHING THEY WANT TO DO FROM THEIR HUSBANDS AT HOME, IS HE AT HOME? Does he not dash in the night. Once he finishes his food, the next thing is television. And when he is tired, he crossed to the bed. When he is moved, he asks for s*x. When he gets it, he sleeps.

4:00 am, 5:00 AM, he is up. Oh, I have to catch a flight. Oh, and the wife has a permanent question:” are you going again?” So, but you know I have to go. “Are you going again?”

THIS IS TOUCHING: May you receive Help

He thought that death was the end of Abel; he didn't know that there's something that will speak louder than voice. He did not know that blood speaks louder!!!

Hey, are you here reading this?
You, as a young woman, you went; of course, when you were fornicating God warned you not to go near him. He told you that this boy is dangerous, don't visit him. One day you carried your handbag, and you went to his house? You said if he does anything you will tell him you are not ready. You were so convinced in yourself that you'll be able to resist his advance. But when you came, he just touched your nose, and that's how all you guard scattered. Before you knew it, you were in his arms. He didn't do something serious that day. You managed to escape.

The spirit of God came to confront you, your mother said, where did you go? You said you didn't go anywhere. You claimed you were just doing mathematics; you were studying maths. Was it really mathematics? The next time you went, and this time, nothing could stop it. And he slept with you.

One month after. It became clear that you have now taken in. Now, there is a problem
Our church pastor must not hear; my parents must not know about this. Shame, shame, shame. Shame, you are now going up and down, what do we do? What do we do? The boy said, Well, don't call my name, you should have been reasonable. If you mention my name, I will deal with you.

What do I do? What do I do? THAT'S HOW YOU THOUGHT THE DEATH OF THE BABY INSIDE WILL FINISH IT. YOU DON'T KNOW THAT A LIVING BABY, HIS VOICE IS NOT AS STRONG AS THE VOICE OF A SHED BLOOD. YOU DON'T KNOW, YOU DON'T KNOW THAT THE BLOOD SPEAKS LOUDER THAN ORDINARY HUMAN VOICE.

When a man is not yet dead, his voice may not be heard, but if you kill a man, his blood will keep shouting everywhere you go, everywhere you go, everywhere you go. 20 years after, it will still be shouting?

That's why, even after many years that you thought you have forgotten it. The thing still comes back. SOMETIMES YOU WILL BE DREAMING, AND YOU WILL SEE THAT BABY CRYING AS THE DOCTOR WAS TRYING TO USE THE FAUCETS TO CRUSH HIS HEAD INSIDE AND BRING IT OUT. BLOOD WAS CRYING.

WELL, YOU SEE, WHEN THE BLOOD CRIES, ONLY ANOTHER BLOOD CAN SILENCE IT. BLOOD FOR BLOOD. In the Old Testament, when you do that, you must die. Because only blood can silence blood.
But thank God.
There is a fountain filled with blood
Drawn from Immanuel’s veins;
And sinners, plunged beneath that flood,
Lose all their guilty stains:
Lose all their guilty stains,
Lose all their guilty stains;
And sinners, plunged beneath that flood,
Lose all their guilty stains.

ONLY THE BLOOD OF JESUS CAN SILENCE BLOOD. And some of you said Well, I won't talk about it. Ah, you are not going far.
Cain thought he could cover sin. So, what did he do after he killed his brother and the blood gush? What did he do quickly? He just crouched, the way sin was crouching at his door, he started crouching, he quickly dug one shallow grave and buried his brother. And so that nobody will see the blood that was flowing, he quickly put sand on top of everything. Then he washed his hands so well, then he changed his clothes and used perfume.

The Almighty God. Came back to this man.
Cain!!!
WHERE IS ABEL, YOUR BROTHER? WHERE YOUR BROTHER? HE SAID, I DON'T KNOW.

GBILE AKANNI: MY BIGGEST JOY

The biggest joy I've always had as I travelled left and right, all over. Only one joy. And what is that joy? That sometimes we just, I would think I'm sitting in the corner and think nobody knows me. I'm just sitting there, and somebody will come and say, are you Uncle Gbile and I will say yes. He will scream aaahhhh, praise the Lord. In 1983, you came to our school. You spoke and I gave my life to Christ. I never forgot what you preach. They will tell me what I preached. I will say, Lord thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

I will sit somewhere; I'm sitting maybe in an aircraft. Somebody is reading Brother Gbile's book but does not know that that's Brother. Gbile. And then he turns to me and say, oh, Sir, this book is very good for you. You need to read this book because when I got this book, my life has changed completely.

And so as not to discourage him, because maybe he wanted to win another soul for Jesus. So, I will just sit down there and say, ah, what is in that book? He will say, aaah, fantastic. This book just speak directly to somebody. It just deals with my heart. So, I will say, oh, who is the author? He said, I don't know, I've never met him. He's living somewhere far away in Gboko, I don't know where that place is. It's only my sister that gave me this book.

When I want to daze the man, I will say, I am that man you are talking about. Yeah. You are the one? Oh my God. I will call my sister now that I met the author, I met you. That's my joy.

THE JOY OF TOUCHING LIVES THAT ARE GOING TO HEAVEN. If you had given me money, will I not have finished spending it? It will finish. Even if you want to keep money, money is not keepable, inflation will waste your money.

So, what is the need? WHAT I WANT TO BE REMEMBER FOR ARE SOULS OR MEN THAT GOD ALLOWED ME TO AFFECT. WHAT I WANT TO CELEBRATE FOR ARE THE LIVES OF PEOPLE THAT WERE SNATCHED FROM THE KINGDOM OF DARKNESS. WHO ARE NOW POSITIONED SINGING THEIR WAY TO GLORY? THAT'S WHAT I'M INTERESTED IN.

I don't want to be remembered by the clothes I wear. What's the need of that? All that matters is that somebody has been affected for God, and you have that opportunity.
Oh Timothy, that which is committed to your trust, keep it. God has given you the potential power of the gospel to change men. Do you understand?

You see, I respect High Court judges, and I thank God for them, but I don't envy them. You know why? I like them but I don't have either. High Court judges, they wear their hood. When they are coming like this, everybody's afraid. Of course, when he stands up, what can he do? HE CAN ONLY CONVICT CRIMINALS, HE CANNOT CONVERT THEM. Have you ever seen anybody that was converted because the high Court Judge pronounced judgement on him? No.

But me? God has given to me the word of reconciliation, the gospel, the power of God, for changing man. I will just speak the word of God just like that, and someone who is wicked will jump off and come to the altar and cry and give his life to Christ.

I was in South Africa some years ago and you know that small book; your new beginning. And it's a very small book or what you call the ABC of Christian something, it’s part of our discipleship material.

They were studying your new beginning. And they came on dead works. And something happened to this man. He became convicted of sin. He came out, he said. Excuse me. I want to confess, but I have to confess privately first because I don't know how to handle my situation. They brought him to me. I said, what is it? He said this book will not let me sleep again. I thought I'd escaped, but the book has arrested me. What did you do? I killed my wife.

When he told me his story of how he had quarreled with his wife and decided that he would finish her. And how he went to the office and came back, got a kitchen knife and pierced the wife until the woman died. And then quickly cover things and put the knife somewhere and then came out and went back to the office. Then after about two hours he came back and started shouting. Oh, he was one who went and called police. Some people have come to my house, they have destroyed my work.

Up to that point no police investigation could catch him. They are suspecting neighbors while he's going free. But Jesus, just read those little books arrested him. He was here now surrendered. What will I do? I want to go and tell my father-in-law that I'm the one who killed their daughter.

I want to go and tell them I want to hand myself over to police now because even if they put me in jail, at least I will go to heaven. These are the kind of things I'm interested in. I'm interested in raising disciples that would be affecting people for God. If we build a big mansion, what will you do with it

THE TEACHING IS DEEP: YOU NEED TO SEE THIS

While I was thinking about disciples multiplying. ONE OF THE FIRST CHALLENGES WHENEVER YOU TALK ON MULTIPLICATION IS REDUCTION OF QUALITY. Many churches want to go. They want to multiply; they want a mushroom; they want to be everywhere. The first thing they did was to do what? TO REDUCE THE CONTENT; TO RELAX THE PRINCIPLES; TO ADMIT ANYBODY AT ALL. I want to say sincerely to you that disciples multiplied, but all the disciples are multiplied. None of them; none of them was a reduction of quality. So, if you ask me, are we expecting multiplication? We are, but not of any kind.

Some years ago, some brothers were talking to me, and they said, what can we do to fill the whole Nigeria with disciples? They brought all kinds of strategies of how they will gather people; let's have a breakfast meeting, let's do this one, let's organize that, let's do this. I said you don't know what you are saying.

You don't know that IT IS THE CONTENT THAT MAKES THE DISCIPLES IT’S NOT THE NUMBER. I told them, yes, this thing will multiply. It will fill the whole of Nigeria by the grace of God, but not the way you are thinking.

Even as we are saying, disciples will multiply in South Africa; may I inform you? Not of any kind. People will say, you see this thing is big now, come and join me. NO. IT IS CHRIST'S LIFE THAT THAT PRODUCES DISCIPLES. And unless you are ready to eat my flesh and drink my blood, Jesus said, you say you have no life. You. And as he said that again and again, someone said this is a hard saying.
And the Bible says many followed him no more? Many people went away. And Jesus told to his disciples, Listen, he turned to the 12. From thousands they reduced now to 12. And for you to know Jesus, He wasn't confused, he wasn't thinking; aah ah, if all these ones should go now, will my work not be scattered, will this thing still grow?

May I tell you, let none of you threaten us with your withdrawal. This move is unstoppable. Let none of you say, if I’m not there, let’s see how their discipleship will work. You can go away quickly. Sorry, I don't need to inform you; THE MULTIPLICATION WE ARE TALKING ABOUT DOES NOT DEPEND ON WEEDS. THE MULTIPLICATION WE ARE TALKING ABOUT DOES NOT DEPEND ON FLUFFY MEN, WHO ARE NOT WILLING TO FACE THE REALITY OF HIS DEMAND ON OUR LIVES.

When the people left, it remained 12. Can you imagine that if this meeting now, as the word of God is going, some of you got annoyed and you began to carry your bag 1 by 1 and you left, and it remained few people. Do you know that I will not be confused. Do you know I will not be discouraged?

In fact, then I will knell down, and say; thank you Lord for delivering me from those who occupy space, who have nothing to do with what you want to do in the nations. DECEPTIVE CROWD THAT IS NOT WILLING TO GO ALL THE WAY WITH JESUS CANNOT MULTIPLY THE KINGDOM OF GOD.

Thank God they. Reduced to 12. And Jesus said, will you also go. The reason is because MULTIPLICATION DOES NOT DEPEND ON THE CROWD. Oh Lord, am I confusing you at all?
LOOK, MULTIPLICATION HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH VIABILITY OF LIFE, NOT WITH QUANTITY. If you have a seed that is viable, it can multiply. But IF YOU HAVE A CROWD THAT HAS NO SEED IN THEM. CAN THEY MULTIPLY? Please talk to me. Can they multiply? So, let's get it clear. THE DISCIPLES THAT MULTIPLIED, WERE DISCIPLES THAT HAD THE SEED OF HIS LIFE INSIDE OF THEM.

It was only possible, Peter, for James, for John, for those people to multiply BECAUSE THEY HAVE TAKEN TIME TO SWALLOW THE SEED OF HIS LIFE. IT IS THE SEED OF HIS LIFE THAT PRODUCES GENUINE DISCIPLES. AND WHERE THE SEED IS NOT? YOU DON'T EXPECT ANY GROWTH, ANY MULTIPLICATION.

So, when He said, will you also go? Thank God. Peter said to whom has shall we go? We know you are the one that has the word of eternal life. We know, without you, there's nothing anywhere else. We're not going. And Jesus said yes, but there's still one of you that will go. One of you is still sitting here, I know you will go. Because there's something else, he is looking for, referring to Judas Iscariot.

So, when Jesus was talking of the multiplication, he never counted on Judas Iscariot. He knew that man that does not have the seed of life, has no capacity to multiply life. This morning. If we are going to multiply in South Africa, each one of you sitting here, YOU MUST HAVE BEEN PEOPLE WHO CAME DIRECTLY TO CHRIST. YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE IS REST. AND YOU HAVE LEARNED OF HIM. YOU HAVE EATEN HIS FLESH AND HIS BLOOD.

YOU HAVE TAKEN IN THE SEED OF HIS LIFE, THE SEED OF HIS NATURE. He said they cannot sin because his Seed abides in them. A man that does not carry the seed of His life inside cannot multiply. Praise the Lord.
