We want to welcome you to the Watchman Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement, a time that Almighty God himself has designed to do great work in our lives, and from what we have experienced so far, and what we have had so far, my assertion can be proven. And the theme of the retreat still remains the challenges of our times, the ministry of the Watchman Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement, and the children of the ministry. Again, I have the privilege that I greatly respect and appreciate from a servant of God this time to bring across to us the teachings on the challenges of our time, and the ministry of the Watchman Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement.

 

Before we go into the ministration, the teaching proper, I want to invite the music ministry so they can play a ministry for us, so we can connect, and so we want them to bring across to us the music from hymn number 54, Christ is calling follow me. Fate and duty both we cry. Just obey.

 

Just obey. Just obey. He’s the way, God’s way, the only way.

 

When his message comes to you, there is nothing to do. Just obey. Just obey.

 

Just obey. Just obey. He’s the way, God’s way, the only way.

 

When his message comes to you, there is nothing to do. Just obey. Just obey.

 

Just obey. Just obey. He’s the way, God’s way, the only way.

 

When his message comes to you, there is nothing to do. Just obey. Just obey.

 

Just obey. God is building up Zion, suspecting every one of us to make up our minds that we will obey. God is building up Zion, and the reason is because he wants to take back the church, and he wants to take back the world, as he has spoken and promised the man of God.

 

So, it is time that every one of us should arise, and to shine, and to realign, and to seek God for genuine transformation. Seek God for genuine experience. Seek God for genuine touch.

 

God is waiting that every one of us must make up our mind that this is not a time of argument. It is a time to obey as the Lord speaks. Now, we must rise to repair the broken altars.

 

Altars that are broken, altars of prayers, altars of consecration, altars of fasting, altars of zeal, and whatever altar that has been broken. We must be ready to listen to God’s word. We must be ready to pray.

 

We must be ready to ask God to set us ablaze for him. We want to be ablaze for God’s use. And so, blessed Holy Spirit, we want to thank you because of another opportunity again to come to your presence this time, so as to listen to your word, so as to be blessed, so as to receive a touch.

 

The good work you have started in us, we are trusting that we are going to finish the work. We are going to bounce back to life. We are going to bounce back to effectiveness.

 

We will be sharpened again. It is written in the Word that if the iron be blunt and the user does not want to put strength, then he must need to sharpen the iron. So, great Lord, here we have come asking that you sharpen us again.

 

Spirit of the living God who has been at work, we release ourselves to you. We are asking you that do not spare. Whatever you need to expose, go ahead and expose them.

 

Whatever we need to drop, help us to drop them. We want to come out better. We want to emerge as a victorious army.

 

Army that can be trusted. Army of men and women that are designed to conquer and overcome. Blessed Holy Spirit, we shall be feed to the brim.

 

And as we will be departing into our places, we will be departing another men and another women, feared by God Almighty that we may go to conquer, that we may go to subdue our environment and reign in our territories with God. Thank you, blessed Redeemer. I lend myself to be used.

 

I want you to fill me with your Spirit so I can utter the mysteries of the kingdom, the things that will bring change, the things that are intended for the church to hear at such a time like this. Thank you once again. Depending solely on your help, come and help me again so I can deliver your mind effectively.

 

Blessed because I know you have answered me. In Jesus’ name we have prayed. Amen.

 

And let the church say amen. Once again, we welcome you. And the topic is the challenges of our times and the ministry of the Watchman Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement.

 

We are going to approach the teaching under three subheadings. The first thing we are going to look at is the challenges of our times. We will look at briefly the social challenges and the spiritual challenges and political challenges, a few of them.

 

And then when we are through with that, we will come out with showing us the ministry of the Watchman Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement. And then we will show us the Watchman, the very Watchman, that will be able to fulfill his calling. The man you must be at such a time to fulfill the ministry of the Watchman for which we are ordained.

 

And so, follow me to read Luke chapter 21 and let us read from verse 8. Luke chapter 21. Then let’s read from verse 8. And he said, take heed that ye be not deceived. Reason being that the end time will be a time filled with deceit.

 

Remember that the disciples of Christ were asking him, Master, signs that we need to see to know that the end of the church age is with us and the end of the church of the world is with us. Then he says, verse 8, take heed that ye be not deceived. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ.

 

And the time draweth near, going not therefore after them. But when you shall hear of the wars and commotions, be not terrified. For these things must first come to pass, for the end is not yet by and by.

 

Then said he unto me, nations, all nations shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and great earthquakes shall be in diverse places, and famines, and pestilences, and fearful sights, and great signs shall there be from heaven. But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name’s sake. Now, in Matthew chapter 24, because this information is a very critical information, the writers of Synoptic Gospel, all of them covered this story.

 

It was covered by Matthew and covered by Mark and Luke. Look at Matthew chapter 24, and let’s read from verse, let’s take it from verse 2. And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? Verily I say unto you, that shall not be left there, or here, one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. And as he sat upon the mount of olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign of your coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you, for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ, and shall deceive many.

 

And ye shall hear of wars, and rumors of wars, see that ye be not troubled, for all these things must come to pass, for the end is not yet, for nations shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes in diverse places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall death deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you, and you shall be battered of all nations, for my name’s sake, and there shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another, and many false prophets shall arise, and shall deceive many, and because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wash cold, for he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

 

Now in Ezekiel chapter 33, Ezekiel the 33rd chapter, let us take it from verse 1. Again the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their course, and set him for their watchman, when he seeeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people. Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning, if the sword come and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head. He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning, his blood shall be upon him.

 

For he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul. For if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned, if the sword come and take away, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand. So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel.

 

Therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me. When I say unto the wicked, O wicked man, thou shalt surely die. Thou dost not speak to one the wicked from his way.

 

A wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at thy hand. Nevertheless, if thou warn the wicked of his way, to turn from it, if he do not turn from his way, he shall die in his iniquity, but thou hast delivered thy soul. Now, the two places we read at first from the gospel are all telling us about what our time will look like.

 

What our times will look like. While the second reading taken from Ezekiel is telling us about the solution that the watchman should provide. And so it follows that as it is now, the effect of the perils of our times is felt everywhere.

 

The fate of men and women has been affected. Their conviction and their zeal and commitment and steadfastness has been affected. And we are not talking about just ordinary men.

 

We are talking about children of the kingdom. We are talking about the people that are supposed to watch over others. The watchman people.

 

And the word perils simply means danger. Dangerous time. A period of challenges.

 

A period of persecution. A period of difficulties. And so we want to look at the challenges of our time.

 

When we were talking to us in the last message I delivered, I showed us that we have the challenges of our times into categories. We have the natural challenges. We have the sociological challenges.

 

We have the technological challenges as well as spiritual challenges. So now in the natural challenges that we are facing today, we have the climate change, the environmental damages that are happening here and there, environmental pollution, the earthquakes, the tsunami, the hurricane, and all that. And they are all happening to confirm what is written in Matthew 24 verse 7 where we have read.

 

And what does it say? Let’s read it again to confirm that the scripture is true. Matthew 24 verse 7. For nation shall rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be famines and pestilences and earthquakes in diverse places. So there is climate change, environmental damage, and pollution, earthquakes, tsunami happening in many countries of the world.

 

Now apart from that, wars and conflicts, the new everyday news, insurgencies and terrorism, and banditry have become the order of the day in the side of the nation from where we are coming from. Kidnappings and health men activities, killings have become the order of the day, bloodletting here and there. And apart from that, there is a serious insecurity issue here and there.

 

Now talking about the wars and conflicts, we can remember that right now as I’m talking, Ukraine conflicts with Russia, and then conflict at Gaza, and that is Palestinian versus the Israelis. Right now there is a war and conflict going on at Sudan. What about Lebanon? These are hot places of war.

 

And in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, conflicts are going on all over the world, confirming what is said, that there shall be wars. In Matthew 24, 6, you shall hear of wars and rumors of war, but see that you be not troubled, for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. So we have conflicts, local conflicts, and global conflicts, and these conflicts have left the world with a lot of displaced persons and refugees, rising numbers, and local terrorism and international groups of terrorists.

 

They are there, we have in our own side of the world, the Boko Harams, the ISWAP, now over there we have the Hamas, and so on and so forth. All of these are in confirmation of what is spoken about our times. There are all signs to us that we don’t have time, and that we must be on our feet to address what’s supposed to be addressed.

 

What about economic instability, and global poverty, and social inequality, and violation of human rights? All of these are everywhere. The economy of nations are unstable. Poverty is ravaging the world.

 

I don’t have the statistics now of the poor. Now there is social inequality, violation of human rights, and persecution of Christian churches globally, and this confirms what Jesus Christ said in John 16. In John 16, and reading from verse 1, Jesus Christ said, These saints have I spoken unto you, that you shall not be offended.

 

They shall put you out of the synagogues. Yet the time cometh that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God’s service. Some people today, killing Christians, killing believers, that is celebrated.

 

When you kill any Christian, then you will have a reward in their so-called heaven, in their so-called paradise, and then you will be given 70 virgins, and all of those cock and bull stories that are telling the people that have been brainwashed. All these things are happening. Verse 3, And these things will they do unto you? Because they have not known the Father, nor me.

 

But these things have I told you that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said unto you at the beginning because I was with you. So, what about the menace of social media? The social media, that is technology, they are doing some good but some great harm.

 

They are doing, there is a serious attack being launched on or against the Bible, against true Christianity, against the fundamentals of Christian faith. And against the doctrine of right living. And so, all these things are happening.

 

Now, we also have spiritual challenges. The challenges are coming from the modernism. We have destruction of modernism.

 

Trying to encroach into the church. Ecumenism is also there. Many people now cannot differentiate between true Christianity and falsehood.

 

Everybody that is calling Jesus now is considered to be a child of God. And there is the destruction also coming from materialistic world. The secularism is also there.

 

We have a spiritism. Those who are practicing occultism, pseudo prayer houses are all there. And they are doing miracles.

 

They are doing wonders. And many people are confused. They are getting many followers than imagined.

 

We have many magicians, prophets. In other words, Balaamism is in the increase. Balaam, who combined prophetic ministry and magic.

 

And could be purchased. And so, in 2 Peter 2, verses 14 and 15. 2 Peter 2. Let us look at verses 14 and 15.

 

Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin. They perform miracles and wonders, but are filled with sin. Beguiling unstable souls.

 

At heart they have exercised with coercious practices. Cursed children. Coercious practices is behind the selling that is going on in the church.

 

They are merchandising. Everything is for sale in the church now. Anchor ships are being sold.

 

And the emblems are being sold. And so many things are being sold in the church. They are all miracle this and miracle that.

 

So many miracle things are being sold. All these are things that we have to contend with in our time. And verse 15.

 

These men are said to have forsaken the right way. And have gone astray following the way of Balaam. The son of Bethsa, who loved the wages of unrighteousness.

 

Balaam could do anything for the sake of money. And that is what we find people doing today. Anything goes in the church.

 

Church has become commercialized. Church has become market. Miracles cannot be sold.

 

If you want a miracle of so-so amount, then you deposit so-so amount. I think it was last December retreat or thereabout. I do not know whether it is in this platform.

 

I told the people of an individual that met me. And spoke about how he met one of the popular prophets. And the gospel preachers in this country.

 

And then he was told that his problem has been taken to number 777. And therefore, he has to pay 770,000. So as to be able to pray for him.

 

And bring his destiny down. That is what is happening in our day. And the gullible are being deceived.

 

The gullible are following. If you want miracle of pounds. You must give so-so to the man of God.

 

And everything is revolving around man of God. And women of God and all that. And they are all about money.

 

They are all about money. Many people are thrilled. Many people are confused.

 

When they meet these magicians. And meet these fortune tellers. Diviners.

 

And they tell them exactly their problem. They forgot that the gear that was possessed by the spirit of divination. Was able to tell about Paul being a man of God.

 

And a servant of God. But the spirit that was telling that truth was not the spirit of God. And so in 2 Timothy 3. And verse 8. In the days of Moses.

 

He had to contend with magicians. Before Israelites were brought out of Egypt. So in our own time.

 

We have so many challenges. Spiritual challenges to contend with. And that is why the watchman must not continue to sleep.

 

In 2 Timothy 3. And verse 8. Now at Genesis and Jambres. We stood Moses. These were the two magicians.

 

That were there duplicating whatever Moses was doing. That delayed the departure of the people of Israel from Egypt. Until they were tamed.

 

So do these also resist the truth. Men of corrupt minds. Reprobate concerning the faith.

 

But they shall proceed no further. For their folly shall be manifest unto all men. As theirs also was.

 

In the days of Moses. These magicians arose. But they were not able to stop Moses.

 

And so in the days of apostles. They were there. And now in our day.

 

These magicians. These miracle workers. These false miracle workers.

 

That can use anything. They are abounding. As they did not proceed further in the days of Moses.

 

And in the days of apostles. So also they shall proceed no further. But that can only happen.

 

If the watchman rises to his responsibility. And takes his position properly. We have the Pentecostal compromise.

 

To contend with. The compromises of the Pentecostals. And their watered down gospel.

 

The empty gospel. That does not produce change. The gospel that only ends up in.

 

People raising up their hand. And shouting praise God. Praise God.

 

And just talking about what God. But they never talk about the change. That happened in their lives.

 

We have all this to contend with. By God’s grace. We are sure that God will see us through.

 

And in the days of Nehemiah. He witnessed prophets. And prophecies.

 

That were hired. And they were hired. To distract him.

 

Nevertheless. Notwithstanding these hired prophecies. And prophets.

 

Nehemiah proceeded to finishing the work. Therefore. As the Lord God of heaven liveth.

 

We shall finish the work. In the days of Elijah. There were 450 prophets of Baal.

 

And then I think about 300 prophets of the other. All of them. If you put their numbers together.

 

There were about 750. Versus one man. Nevertheless.

 

That one man brought the hand of the Lord. And restored revival. If one man could bring revival into the land.

 

By God’s grace. The Watchman Catholic Charismatic Movement. Is not a business of one man.

 

We have several men that God has raised. God has raised a father in the Lord. And has used him to raise every one of us.

 

And therefore. Elijah and Nehemiah succeeded. To accomplish their purpose of ordination and calling.

 

Where we are not failed. Nehemiah the sixth chapter. Let us read and see.

 

The. Prophets that were hired. In Nehemiah chapter six and verse ten.

 

Afterward I came unto the house of Shemaiah. The son of Deliah. The son of Matabir.

 

Who was shut up. And he said let us meet together in the house of God. Within the temple.

 

And let us shut the doors of the temple. For there we come to slay thee. Yea.

 

In the night we there come to slay thee. And I said. Should such a man as I flee.

 

Who is dear that being as I am. Will go into the temple to save his life. I will not go in.

 

And I lo. I perceive that God have not sent him. But that he pronounce this prophecy against me.

 

For Tobiah and Sambalat. Had hired him. Hired to frustrate.

 

Hired to work against the project Nehemiah was undertaking. Just like our own project. The project of Nehemiah was to.

 

Rebuild the broken wall. And repair the doors. And restore religious life.

 

The way of God to the people. And so position came. However he successfully finished the work.

 

Now in our own time. Challenges have arisen. Oppositions are here and there.

 

They want to frustrate the economy. So that way we have nothing to do the work. And profits are rising in their droves.

 

And so many problems here and there. Conflicts in the nations. And all of this put together.

 

The target is the mission. And the vision that God has given us to pursue. Nevertheless or however.

 

We are sure that. He that called us. Is the same that called Elijah.

 

And did not allow the oppositions and challenges to frustrate him. Therefore he will not allow us to be frustrated. Now in verse 13.

 

Therefore was he hired. That I should be afraid. And do so unseen.

 

And that there might have matter for an evil report. That there might reproach me. The challenges the enemies are bringing up here and there.

 

They are intended to intimidate us. They are intended to put fear in us. But Nehemiah refused them.

 

That once there arose in his own dare to intimidate him. Now he said in verse 14. My God.

 

Think thou upon Tobiah. And Sambalat. According to these their works.

 

And on the prophets. Prophets not there. And the rest of the prophets.

 

That would have put me in fear. Prophets. Reason to put him in fear.

 

Were the prophets of our death. False prophets and miracle workers of our death. What they are doing and magicians are doing.

 

Can put anybody who is not properly rooted in the Bible into fear. And that is why God is bringing this message of this period. So as to clear the way.

 

Now. It follows that notwithstanding the gross effect of the challenges of our time. We find that people of old had also gross challenges or deep challenges that almost affected them.

 

However, they were able to accomplish their assignment. Nehemiah did. Paul also did.

 

Paul testified of having trouble on every side. In 2 Corinthians. And chapter 4. Let’s look at Apostle Paul.

 

A man who had troubles on every side. And notwithstanding the troubles he had on every side. He successfully completed the assignment.

 

And testified to completing. He said, I have finished my work. And they are laid for me a crown of righteousness.

 

In chapter 4 of 2 Corinthians. And let’s read verse 8. We are troubled on every side. Yet not distressed.

 

We are perplexed but not in despair. Persecuted but not forsaken. Cast down but not destroyed.

 

Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus. That the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. For we which live are always delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake.

 

That the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. It was under this condition. And other conditions that Paul met.

 

As stated in 2 Corinthians chapter 11, 23 down to 33. And other places what he saw and what he went through. And yet he was able to finish very well.

 

In 2 Timothy chapter 4. Let’s hear Paul finishing very well. And keeping the faith in the midst of opposition against the faith. 2 Timothy chapter 4. And let’s read verse 4. 2 Timothy chapter 4. Let’s start from verse 3. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine.

 

But after their own loss shall they heap to themselves teachers, salvation ears. And they shall turn away their ears from the truth. And shall be turned unto fables.

 

He said that time is coming. And we are in that time. And Timothy and Paul experienced this time we are talking about partly.

 

But what thou in all things endure afflictions. Do the work of an evangelist. Make full proof of your ministry.

 

For I am now ready to be offered. The time of my departure is at hand. I fought a good fight.

 

I finished my course. I kept the faith. I fought a good fight.

 

I finished my course. And I kept the faith. So he kept the faith.

 

They might have finished their work. So whatever that is happening now. Whether good or bad.

 

Shall work out in our favor. As long as we hold to our conviction. That is what we must all take note of.

 

Now that brings us to the second point. The ministry of the Watchman Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement. Now seeing the situation of our time.

 

God called us. And raised us as watchmen to this generation. And a watchman is one that has been assigned with specific duties.

 

In prayer and warfare. For the body of Christ. For individuals.

 

For communities. For territories. And for nations.

 

So God has raised us. And has given us the responsibility. Of praying and carrying out warfare.

 

For the body of Christ. And for individuals. For members of our families.

 

For communities. For territories. For countries.

 

And for nations. Now the ministry of the watchman. Is about protection.

 

Defense. Warnings. And observations.

 

They carry out their ministry. And it provides protection. To people spiritually.

 

And a defense. And to warn people. And to observe what is happening.

 

They also are to execute the written judgment. Of God upon principalities and powers. And authorities.

 

It is also our ministry. To establish divine government. To ensure that the power of God is established.

 

Now Isaiah chapter 62. Isaiah was a watchman. And then I hear what God says about him.

 

In Isaiah chapter 62. Verse 1. For Zion’s sake I will not hold my peace. And for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest.

 

Until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness. And the salvation thereof as a lamp that burneth. That is the ministry.

 

Ministry of driving the world. Ministry of praying until righteousness will emerge. Until salvation will emerge.

 

And start burning like a burning lamp. And then Gentiles will start coming. And kings will start embracing.

 

And therefore the ministry of the watchman. Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement. Is a ministry of restoring nations.

 

Ministry of restoring individuals to right living. To right relationship with God. Ministry of delivering people.

 

Ministry of observing the spiritual timing. And warning people. Ministry of passing the judgment of God.

 

Against principalities and powers. In verse 7. And then in verse 6 rather. I have said watchmen upon thy walls O Jerusalem.

 

We shall never hold their peace. Day nor night. Ye that make mention of the Lord.

 

Keep not silence. And give him no rest. Till he establish.

 

Until he make Jerusalem a place in the earth. That is the ministry of the watchman. Set upon thy walls.

 

Unfortunately many of the watchmen. Rather than being upon the walls. Can be said to be off the walls.

 

I want to ask you. Are you upon the walls? Or on the walls? Or are you off the walls? Walls of washing. Walls of prayer.

 

And so on and so forth. Ezekiel was commissioned. As a watchman.

 

To see the judgment coming. And to declare it raw. And so a ministry is a ministry.

 

Of seeing the danger that is coming. And warning the people. And warning the people.

 

When God says that. He is going to judge an individual. It is a ministry to tell that person.

 

Without diluting it. So the ministry of the watchman. Prepares the way of the Lord.

 

And then carries out. The word of God. Undiluted word of God.

 

Standing to prove that God is. In 1 Kings chapter 17 verse 1. Elijah stood up to declare. That there shall be no rain.

 

Upon the land. As long as the Lord lives. And by the ministry of Elijah the watchman.

 

Knowledge of God was restored. And so it is a ministry. To restore knowledge of God.

 

And to combat falsehood. And to combat these prophets of bars. That are feared everywhere.

 

In chapter 18 of 1 Kings. Elijah stood and declared. After he has prayed.

 

And fire came down. He stood and ordered the people. To slay the prophets of bar.

 

And the things about bar. Were all demolished. By the hand of Elijah the watchman.

 

And that is what is expected. Of every watchman. In 1 Kings chapter 18 verse 39.

 

And when all the people saw it. Saw and said prayer. They fell on their faces.

 

And they said the Lord is the God. The Lord is the God. There was a restoration of the knowledge of God.

 

It was no longer just religious knowledge of God. Following God was no longer a formality. It became a reality.

 

It became something that they didn’t need anybody to tell them again. They declared the Lord is God. And so Elijah said unto them.

 

Take the prophets of bar. Let not one of them escape. And they took them.

 

And Elijah brought them down. To the brook kitchen. And slew them.

 

So he found out that. Elijah by his ministry. Cleared the activities of the false prophets.

 

And therefore our ministry of the watchman. Is a ministry of standing and declaring. That God is real.

 

Until there is a removal of the trace of error in the land. And so where you are stationed. Where God has specifically planted you.

 

It is expected that you carry out the assignment. As I carry out my own assignment. As I brighten my corner.

 

And brighten your corner. And then young men and young women. Move into the places to storm the world.

 

With the truth of the living God. And find that knowledge of God will be restored. And so our ministry is a ministry of aggressive intercession.

 

Aggressive prayer. Not just ordinary. Praying until God answers with revival spree.

 

Praying until there is a change. Moses was a man that God took a decision. Of destroying the children of Israel.

 

But because Moses recognized his ministry. Of being a watchman to the people. He stood and prayed.

 

Until God changed his mind. Elijah prayed. So every watchman is called to the ministry of prayer.

 

Aggressive prayer. Agonizing. Unfortunately instead of agonizing.

 

Watchmen have turned to become organizers. And the more we keep on from one committee to another committee. From one organization to another.

 

We continue to disorganize ourselves. It is time that we return to the place of meeting with God. And as we do.

 

We see the hand of God at work. It is our ministry to confront. Evils on every level.

 

Every spiritual level. And we do that through prayers. In 2 Corinthians.

 

Chapter 10. And reading from verse 3. For though we walk in the flesh. We do not walk after the flesh.

 

For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal. But mighty through God. To the pulling down of strongholds.

 

Casting down imaginations. And every item that exalted itself against the knowledge of God. And bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.

 

It is our ministry of restoring knowledge of God. To our community. To individuals who come across us.

 

To the territories where we are. To the nations where we are. We are to rise to restore knowledge of God.

 

And to combat strongholds and powers. And establish the authority of God over nations. But for that to happen.

 

We have to exercise our given authority over powers. And in chapter 6 of Ephesians. And reading from verse 10.

 

Finally my brethren be strong in the Lord. And in the power of his might. Put on the whole armor of God.

 

Are you being able to stand against the hires of the devil? For we rest not against flesh and blood. We are not fighting. But we have fight.

 

But against principalities. Against powers. Against the rulers of darkness of this world.

 

Against spiritual wickedness in high places. There are spiritual wickedness. Or there is spiritual wickedness in high places.

 

And rulers of darkness. We are called to tempt them. And every watchman has this authority.

 

In Psalm 149, 6 to 9. He said this is the heritage of the righteous. He said all his servants they have this authority. Let’s look at this authority.

 

So that you don’t begin to say that this is talking about pastors. This is talking about elders. This is talking about it is the elders that should deal with these powers.

 

It is missionaries. It is those who have special assignment. And not me.

 

No, you are included. In Psalm 49. And let’s read verse 6. Let the high praises of God be in their mouth.

 

And a two edged sword in their hand. To execute vengeance upon the hidden. And punishments upon the devils.

 

God wants to use you and I. To teach principalities and power a lesson. That there is God. And it is time that we should come up and understand who we are.

 

Listen to me. You need to know who you are. It is time you begin to see yourself the way God sees you.

 

It is time you begin to see yourself from the scriptures. And the way you begin to see yourself from the eyes of God. From the God’s perspective.

 

That is when you will rise to this responsibility. Of taming powers. And taming things that are happening around us that shouldn’t happen.

 

Now to bind their kings with chains. And their nobles with fetters of iron. To execute upon them the judgment written.

 

And then. And then. Are you there? Now if you are there, I want you to join me.

 

And then. This honor have all its sense. Praise ye the Lord.

 

Now if you are a child of God. Listen to me where you are seated. Tell somebody you have this honor.

 

I want you to tell somebody at the other side where you are sitting. That you have this honor. And the honor you have is honor.

 

To execute judgment upon them. That is written. Written in the Bible.

 

We are working against the powers that are working against us this time. So we are not to fear them. Neither are we to allow them to intimidate us.

 

Rather we are to take them up. And deal with them. And place them where they belong to.

 

Now. Watchman Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement. As a prophetic ministry.

 

It should see into the spirit. And into distant future. Our ministry is to see what is happening in the spiritual realm.

 

What others cannot see. We have the ministry of seeing into the distant future. And taking authority over forces of darkness.

 

That is there. Apostle Paul. In the course of his ministration.

 

He noticed that the Corinthian brethren. In 2 Corinthians chapter 3. That they were not responding as they should respond. But then because he was a man that was deep in spirit.

 

Deep in knowledge of God. He was able to discover the reason for this. And so he traced it to the veil covering their face.

 

It takes only a spiritual man to be able to discover what we are talking about. So you have access into the realm of the spirit. And so it is our duty as watchmen.

 

To access the spiritual realm. And then understand what is going on there. And be able to speak accordingly.

 

In 2 Samuel chapter 18. Theory 24 to 27. You will see that the watchman.

 

That was on the watchtower. Saw afar off men that were running. And then he alerted David.

 

So a watchman should see into the distant future. Because the ministry is a prophetic ministry. And then take authority.

 

Now the watchman should seek to understand God’s actions. He should also understand the activities of angels. And strategies of Satan.

 

Paul said we are not ignorant of the devices of the devil. How did he come to know this? He came to know this because he sought to understand the activities of the devil. He said that even servants of the devil they will appear as angels of light.

 

How did he have this knowledge? The knowledge came because he was a man that was deep. A man who understood that as a watchman he should understand God’s actions. Understand the activities of angels.

 

He said they are not ministering spirits. Who are sent to minister unto the saints. How did he know that angels are ministering spirits? It’s because he as a watchman was able to veer into the realm of the spirit.

 

And to understand these activities of the angels. And so all watchmen mentioned in the Bible they were all prophets. Ezekiel was not a prophet, he was a prophet.

 

Jeremiah was not a prophet, he was a prophet. And therefore if we are calling ourselves watchmen then we are what? Prophets? You need to understand that every watchman has the ministry of what? A prophet. Who sees into the future.

 

How then will we be able to do our work if we cannot see what is coming? Prophets they see what is coming. They see good when it’s coming. They see evil when it is coming.

 

And they tell the people about what is coming. Elijah is there saw it and declared. Isaiah is there saw it.

 

And all the prophets, all the watchmen who have gone before us, they all saw what was coming. And informed the people. Look at Jeremiah chapter 51 and verse 11.

 

Jeremiah 51 and verse 11. 51 verse 11 of Jeremiah. Make bright the arrows, gather the shields.

 

The Lord had raised up the spirit of the kings of Medes for his devices against Babylon. To destroy it because it is the vengeance of the Lord. The vengeance of his temple.

 

Now Jeremiah saw what was coming and called the people to make bright the arrows. Because he was a prophet, a watchman. So watchmen are to see into distant future.

 

They are to see in the spirit. They are to see the strategies of Satan to undo people. And then know what to be done.

 

As it was in the days of Elisha. Elisha was the man that will sit in his bedroom. And then I will tell what the king is discussing in his bedroom.

 

And that was a watchman. It is time we come to this level. It is required that we come to this level of having deep awareness of what is happening.

 

If we don’t know what is happening, we will not be able to handle what is happening. We do not have a connection to the realm of the spirit. And understand with clarity, it should not be only for pastors.

 

It should not be only for our Jesus and for a few of the elders. It is for every one of us. Whether you are singing in the choir, how can you be able to minister effectively? Songs of that will turn men and connect men.

 

How will you be able to minister effectively to a song that will connect, that will synchronize with the ministry of the minister if you are not connected? Many a times the people that are there with me, as I come ministering, I will not tell them what I am coming with. But I find them singing a song that will synchronize with what I am coming with. If you are not in the spirit, if the choir master or mistress is not in the spirit, we will not be able to have access.

 

So we need to be on the same page. All of us have to be what? On the same page. For us to be able to accomplish this ministry.

 

And therefore, ministry is ministry of preaching undiluted word. I said that. And it is a ministry of warning the adamant.

 

A ministry of opening the eyes of the ignorant folks. And to exercise, take note, superior authority over Satan and his cohorts. Superior authority.

 

That you can say, Satan, my foot. Now listen to me. When I was to come to this meeting, the devil fought to hinder me.

 

He fought to hinder me. Vehicles that came to bring me. The first one that came to take me from the airport, now on his way coming, a vehicle hit it.

 

Second one that picked me as we were getting closer to where we are, the boat joint moved out. But then eventually I arrived. But then I had already booked for my flight, and the flight was canceled.

 

And I had to struggle. It was by whiskers and by the mercy of God. And one of the young men that was bringing me said that it looks like there is something special that the Lord wants to bring through me that the devil saw.

 

And that was the reason he is fighting. And I want to tell you some of these things I’m bringing and the ones that have been brought are the things that the devil saw ahead. And we don’t want us to know the other side of our time.

 

Because he knows that if we knew the other side of our time, that when we play him, we’ll give him knockout. We’ll give him knockout. We’ll give him knockout.

 

Praise God. And it is time. God depends so much on his watchmen before he deploys anything to the edge.

 

Before God deploys anything to the edge, he looks at his watchmen. And then if he finds that his watchmen are there, and his watchmen are ready, his watchmen are prepared, his watchmen are up and doing, he’ll find God releasing what he has for the world. In Ezekiel 22 and verse 30, And I saw for a man among them, a watchman that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should destroy it, but I found none.

 

Therefore, have I poured out my indignation upon them, have consumed them with the fire of my wrath. Their own way have I recompensed upon their heads, says the Lord God. God spares a place when he sees watchmen.

 

Now, before we pray, now, what manner of a person should a watchman that we fulfill his ministry be? And what should he know? And what should he be? Now, I want you to take note that anyone who wants to accomplish his ministry as a watchman, and in the watchman should bear in mind that not everyone that received ministry of God accomplished it. Not every person that received ministry of God accomplished it. Angels could not finish their ministry.

 

They were pushed out. The children of Israel, when they left Egypt, and they enroute to the promised land, their leaders that led them, many, many of them, none of them, excepting Joshua and Caleb, entered and finished. The rest all finished in the wilderness.

 

That must be at the back of your mind. Big names like Moses and so on and so forth. Korah, do you know that Korah, Dathan and Abiram, that they were not small men? Do you know that Samson and Solomon, they could not finish their assignment? And they fell by the wayside.

 

Do you know that Demas was not a small person? Do you know that Judas was a big person? A big person in the Lord. But he came down. And what brought him down was his covetousness.

 

Do you know about Alexander the copper smith? He was not a mean man. He was a great man. Recognized, but he couldn’t make it.

 

He couldn’t make it. He couldn’t finish the work. And therefore, listen to me.

 

Do we need to even go far? This pulpit I’m standing today, there are people that are stood on the watchman pulpits. And they are ministered, global ministration. Ministered internationally.

 

But right now, they are singing the song of Zion in a strange land. The diocese where you are now. Some of the dioceses where you are now.

 

Somebody was ahead in it. But where is the person now? Some of the parishes where you are now. Somebody was the past, where is he now? Therefore, let him that thinketh stand.

 

Take heed, lest he fall. Bear in mind that it is possible not to finish. It is possible to fall by the wayside.

 

And when that is always in your mind, you’ll find that God will help you. The flesh, love of the world, and things of the world were among what hindered this man. And Paul warned Timothy about covetousness, about love of money.

 

What do we do? What about Demas? Demas loved the world. He forsook the faith. And what about Samson? Samson couldn’t finish his assignment.

 

And the reason is because at a point in his life, he refused to submit and to obey the voice that raised him, the voice of death that met him. Take note. If you come in the course of your being in church and being in ministry, and you get to a point that the man that met you, the man or the man that God used in making you, their voice is no longer making sense to you.

 

What they are saying is no longer touching you. What they are saying is no longer influencing you. Then you have put yourself into a very big problem.

 

That was the problem with Samson. That was the problem with Saul. Saul at that point had disregard for the voice of the one who raised him, the same thing with Solomon.

 

Solomon said, I was almost in every iniquity. I was in sin, everything, because of not listening to the voice of my teachers. Look at Proverbs chapter 5. Listening to the voice of your teacher is very important.

 

When you discontinue from listening to the voice of your teacher, you are on your way to the floor. And chapter 5 of Proverbs 13, And I have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined my ear to them that instructed me. That’s what finished him.

 

So if you come to a point in your ministry, and you think you have known God so much, you have become so much anointed, that you will not listen to the voice of your teacher anymore. Of course we know the Holy Spirit is our teacher. But men that God used to teach us, they are also the voices that we must listen to.

 

Now let me show you the secret that made Esther. Esther was a person who was given to listening to the voice of Mordecai. When Esther became a queen, the voice of Mordecai was still the voice that ruled her.

 

And that was why she was able to finish well. And so if you are there, and you have become so much anointed, anointed more than your pastor, anointed more than everybody in the washroom, anointed more than your father, who is the minister of the gospel, anointed more than the people, and the anointing is born in your bones, and born in your head, and born in your heart, that you cannot sit down and listen to who you should listen to. I see the person on the way to some assaulting, but that will not be a portion.

 

In the name of Jesus Christ. And so a greedy washman cannot be useful. A greedy washman cannot be useful, and cannot accomplish his ministry.

 

Isaiah 56, 10 to 12, it talks about the greedy washman. Isaiah 56. And let’s read verse 10.

 

His washmen are blind. They are all ignorant. They are all dumb dogs.

 

They cannot bark. Sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber. Yeah.

 

They are greedy dogs which can never have enough. And they are shepherds that cannot understand. They all look to their own way.

 

Everyone is again from his quarter. Come, he said there, and we’ll fetch wine, and we’ll fill ourselves with strong drink, and tomorrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant. Tomorrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant.

 

Now greed was what destroyed Achan. Abelam succumbed to his greed, and lost his ministry. May you not allow greed, and may you not allow covetousness to kill the grace of God in your life, in the name of Jesus Christ.

 

Men who have no respect for value, and who cannot control their desires, who cannot postpone their desires, they do not fulfill God’s purpose for their life. Samson was a man who couldn’t control his desires. And then look at how he went.

 

And then look at Esau. Esau had no respect for value. What minute this betrayed to me, and I died of hunger.

 

I have not heard that somebody missing one meal killed him. It’s only in Esau. It’s only from Esau I heard that when you miss one meal, you will die.

 

That was because he had no value for what was given to him. But look at Jacob. Jacob had value, and Jacob said, let’s begin.

 

What do you give me? You say a betrayed. He said, what minute is betrayed? And he wrote, I, Esau, son of Isaac, who thereby, you know I’m not a lawyer, thereby, I signed that from today, I give out my bet rights. And then he signed.

 

And then he was given a meal. Not even for two meals. Not even for one year meal.

 

Now, how many hours would it take him to cook another meal? Even if it is told that he was to cook. That was because he had no value for what God gave him. And then he suffered later in life, and he never got it.

 

And so he find out that people who have no value, who have no respect for value, who have no respect for value, for what God has given to them, they have not fulfilled their ministry. Look at the man. Look at the man, Reuben.

 

In the day that his father blessed him, he called all his children, and then he looked at him and said, all you sons of Jacob, can you come so I can bless you? And then when all lined up, according to their ages, then he started with Reuben. Reuben. And Reuben was waiting for his father to pronounce the blessings of the first son.

 

You know the first son carried great blessings, even of the old time, even up to now. Now he said, you children gather. And then in verse three of Genesis 49, he says, Reuben.

 

And Reuben says, yes sir. You are my first born. Yes sir, I know.

 

My marriage. Reuben was shaking himself. And beginning of my strength.

 

Wonderful. He said, it is me. The excellence of dignity.

 

And the excellence of power. And then Reuben was saying, it is me. It is me.

 

Now look at the next. Unstable as waters. Unstable as waters.

 

Thou shall not excel. Because thou wentest up to your father’s bed, then defiled thou it. He went up to my couch.

 

I don’t know what got into his head. There are many women in the place that could have gone. Let us allow that his soul, his soul, immoral, so depraved.

 

There were many there. It was his father’s wife. And then he lost out.

 

The reason for that was because he had no respect for value. And therefore, men and women who have no respect for value, God doesn’t use them. His soul was called profane.

 

Because of that lifestyle. Anybody who does not cherish, you don’t cherish that God has called me a watchman. You are not cherishing your ministry to defend it.

 

You are not cherishing what God has given it to you to live a life that is up to your calling. Then you are profane. And so, before we pray, other things about the watchman that will fulfill his calling is that he has to be called by God into the vision and know and understand the holiness of his color, the faithfulness of his color, the greatness, the power, and the superior wisdom of your color.

 

Anybody who finds himself in the watchman, I’m Catholic. There’s no movement. And you have continued to be.

 

And you heard the word and became born again. By reason of that, you are called. You need to know that your color is having a superior wisdom.

 

You need to know that he’s great. Nehemiah knew this. Nehemiah went praying in Nehemiah chapter 1, verse 5. He called God great God.

 

Moses understood the superior power of his God. And then in the Bible says he gave up. He gave up the temporal pleasure of this time because he was able to see the invisible.

 

And therefore, you should know who called you. 1 Thessalonians 5, verse 24. Faithful is he that has called you who will also do it.

 

The second, the next is he must not be blind and ignorant. Yes, he must know what is happening in the world. And also have access to divine revelation about the future and spiritual realities.

 

As I’ve said earlier, he must be spiritual because the work we are called to do is spiritual work. The work we are called to do is not intellectual work. Good and fine.

 

We should not all be dancers. No, we should be intellectually fine. But intellectuality cannot replace spirituality.

 

It takes being deep spiritually to be able to speak words that will penetrate into the hearts of men. And then, and leave them uncomfortable. In the day that Peter spoke, he spoke the word, a common fisherman, but because he was deep spiritually, the waves kept 4,000 people restless until they surrendered to Christ.

 

And therefore, there cannot be a substitute to being spiritual. Is that understood? He must place the vision and the calling of God above everything. Apostle Paul did.

 

He did. What was bothering Apostle Paul was the vision. And Jesus said, if anyone wants to be my disciple and wants to follow me, he should, he must forsake a number of things for him to become.

 

Now, he must be passionate about his calling. Esther was passionate. Nehemiah was passionate.

 

Paul was passionate. Paul said, my own people, my own king’s men, was ready to die for them. And Jesus Christ also was.

 

He said, must I not go about my father’s business? I have food to eat. And my food is to do the work of him that sent me and to finish the work. Very passionate.

 

And Esther said, if I perish, I perish. You cannot do that if you are not passionate about what you are called to do. And Nehemiah said, how can I? How can I go into hiding? A man like me, I can’t do that.

 

And so, the watchman who wants to fulfill his ministry, he must be, this work must be a do or die affair. Listen to me, it has to become what? A do or die affair to you. It was a do or die affair to Esther, to Mordecai, to the Hebrew boys, to Paul, and to all other person that did it.

 

And to our pastor, and to some of the elders. To some of us, this work must what? Be done. Revival is a must.

 

For some of us, we are ready to die. We give up everything. And even our lives.

 

And therefore, it has to be so. And then, constant consideration of the reward of service beyond the present life. If you want to finish the work, to be part of the people that will finish this work, don’t remove your eyes from the eternal reward.

 

Jesus Christ, because of what was said before him, he endured the cross, the glory that was said before him. He endured the cross. And to apostle Paul, the suffering of this present time cannot be compared with the glory that shall be revered.

 

That was why he could stand. We must fix our gaze at the glory beyond. Romans chapter 8 and verse 18.

 

There is coming glory. He’s coming in glory. Every eye we see him, he’s coming in glory.

 

Children of God will rejoice. He’s coming in glory. So he’s coming in glory.

 

Your eyes will be fixed on the coming glory. And when you do, the things of this life will mean nothing. Will mean nothing to you.

 

Romans chapter 8, verse 18. For I reckon, Paul talking, that the suffering of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. There is a glory waiting to be revealed in us.

 

But that glory can only come and can only be revealed to those who fixed their gaze on Christ. There must be daily evaluation of your life and works. Daily evaluate your life.

 

Yes, to the church and Ephesus. Jesus Christ said, I have not found your work perfect. He came to evaluate.

 

So daily evaluation, not just once in a while. Every day at the close of every day work. Evaluate your life.

 

Evaluate what you have said. Evaluate your look. Evaluate what you have done, how you have lived your life.

 

As you do so, you will keep burning. Now there are people who, while they have not been able to catch the fire and start burning again for many years. It’s just because of seeing their committees maybe five years ago and they did not confess, maybe a little one.

 

They didn’t do correct in a sin that required that they should report themselves to the authority and they covered it. They did maybe five days dry fast, but refuse what is recommended. And that thing is dealt with accordingly.

 

You will not start. You will not pick the fire. You will pick after while you go down.

 

And so you need to examine yourself very well and then endeavor to maintain fervent fellowship and lively relationship with Christ who is alive. He’s alive. Amen.

 

He’s alive. Jesus is alive. Forever he’s alive.

 

Amen. Let your Christ not be a religious Christ, but a living Christ. Let your relationship with him be a living relationship.

 

Let the relationship between you and the Holy Spirit not be the type that we had. In 1975, I was confirmed. I did my confirmation.

 

1975. And you know what that means? I was the bishop lay his hand upon me and did like this to bring Holy Spirit upon me. That was the religious Holy Spirit.

 

Now, our relationship with the Holy Spirit should go beyond the religious relationship and go into personal relationship with the Spirit of the living God. And if we do, we will experience the life of God. Jesus the same yesterday, today and forever.

 

And then we must fix our gaze on Jesus. Jesus. Jesus.

 

Jesus. Jesus said in Matthew 16, I 18 and 19, I will build my church. And the gates of hell shall not prevail.

 

We must fix our eyes on the builder of the church and let the church be his church. If you want to build your fame, if you want to build so that you can be known, if the preaching is to be known, if whatever you are doing is to be known, whatever you are doing, if it is to be known, if it is not for Christ, it takes you to nowhere. And if it is Jesus that will build this church, why should my blood pressure rise? I told us in my last preaching that when you understand that you are not the one building, who is building the church? It’s not you.

 

It’s not the pastor. It’s not me. Who is building the church in the location where you are.

 

If you don’t know who is building the church, soon you will be weighed down. Soon you will give up. Moses thought he was the one carrying the children of Israel.

 

And he said, if you will not take this burden away from me, kill me. But was it Moses who was carrying the people? No, sir. It’s not Moses.

 

It was God who carried them. If you want to find out who carried them, you can go and read Isaiah chapter 63, 11 to 15. You will discover that it was not Moses.

 

It was God. And if God said in Philippians 4 verse 19, He said, I will supply all your needs according to what? His riches and glory. If you can supply my personal needs, why will you not supply the resources needed to build his church? If he is the builder of his church, then he will build the church.

 

And the gates of hell shall not prevail. And therefore the watchman that must fulfill his ministry must know that you are not the builder. You are just a collaborator.

 

The builder is God. Paul said, I planted Apollo’s water. But God gave the increase.

 

And therefore, this gaze on Jesus must be there. And Philippians 2, 12 to 13 says, It is God that worketh in us both to will and to do his good pleasure. And then the watchman who must fulfill his ministry, he will not be satisfied with superficial and head knowledge of God.

 

Superficial and head knowledge of God. I know God. Paul said, I want to know him.

 

And the power of resurrection. Power of resurrection. The knowledge that Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego had about God is the knowledge that made them to stand their trials.

 

If they didn’t have enough knowledge, they wouldn’t have stood. They wouldn’t have stood the test. They would have given up at that time.

 

The knowledge required this time to do the work must go beyond religious knowledge into deep knowledge of God, not superficial. It must go beyond Jesus. Did Jesus say this in the Bible? It must be Jesus, what Jesus is dealing with you personally.

 

And apart from that, now this watchman must be ready to enter into the closet. Enter into where? Closet. To have indoor and closed door meeting with God every now and then.

 

What did I say? What did I say? Indoor and closed door meeting with God. Every now and then. Every great man did.

 

Matthew chapter 6 verse 6. Matthew chapter 6 verse 6. But when thou prayest, enter into thy closet. And when thou hast shut thy door, pray to your Father which is in secret. And your Father which is in secret shall do what? Reward you openly.

 

If the watchman want, when we are ready to see open reward in ministry, to see open reward, then it means that starting from the elders of the watchman, watchman, elders of the watchman, and every person that is in place of authority, it is time to go indoors. Enter and close our closet and stop running here and there. They don’t make ministry by running here and there.

 

It is not what is said on the pulpit that influences people. What influences people is what happens in the secret. The deal is with the secret is what gives rise to what happens in the open.

 

And therefore, until elders and leaders and workers and all of us are ready to go to have indoor and closed door meeting with God, where we will be able to come out, the glory will not shine. Moses 40 days, 40 nights, two times. 80 days and 80 nights he spent before he brought Ten Commandments to the world.

 

And it was without food. It is time. God is calling all of us that we should.

 

It is time to drop those things that have kept us outside. It is time that we rise. It is time to align our spirit with God’s will.

 

It is as we enter into the closet that we’ll be able to align our spirit and synchronize our spirit with God’s will and God’s purpose and God’s timing. If we don’t do so, we will continue to operate on our own. And when we operate on our own, at the end of the day, we will still see that the cycle will continue.

 

If we want to break the pattern, we need to go extra mile. Praise God. And finally, he must have spiritual depths, spiritual insight.

 

When the children of Israel were brought at the Red Sea, Moses said to them that the Egyptians you see today, you will see them no more. That came because he had insight. He had depth in the spirit.

 

And the man Elisha was able to tell what was happening in the king’s palace from his bedroom because of the deep relationship and deep depth of God that he has. And so we must know the mind of Christ, maintain intimate fellowship and communion with Christ. 2 Corinthians 13.

 

Let’s read and wait for the last verse. I want you to open your Bible as we read because we are trusting God that God is bringing us into great fellowship with him, into deep work with him. And he says in 2 Corinthians 13 verse 14, The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the communion, the fellowship, the communion of the Holy Ghost be with you all.

 

Amen. We are trusting God that his grace is made available for us through Christ. His love is there and his fellowship, the fellowship with the Holy Spirit.

 

We need these three in order to prevail, in order to excel, in order to move forward. And therefore, brothers and sisters, my elders and all the people, it is time that God will help us to rise and prepare ourselves to face the challenge. The challenge is enormous.

 

But I remember that God will serve is bigger than all the mountains, bigger than all the troubles. And water down great mountain before Zerubbabel, you will come low. And that is by the hand of Zerubbabel and the Watchman Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement and her members, they are the Zerubbabel of this time.

 

And the mountain cannot stand before us. The mountain must level and that is by grace, not by power, not by might, but by what? My spirit. And therefore, while we seek every other thing, seek communion with the Holy Spirit because he is the executor of the program of God for the hour.

 

He is the one assigned for such an hour, for such a time like this. Therefore, as we rise up, everywhere rise up and begin to articulate what you have heard and start talking to God, as we wait for the music ministers to march out, you are praying. I want to hear you pray while the music ministers are coming out.

 

If you can speak in tongue, you can go ahead. This is the time to exercise your liberty in Christ. My Father and my God, I want to thank you and we want to bless your name.

 

The challenges of our times are nothing before our God. The mountain before Zerubbabel is only a mountain to Zerubbabel and not to his God. The challenges are like mountains, but they are nothing before our God.

 

God has given us a ministry that we take hold, a ministry that we control that which is happening. My Father and my God, we cannot disappoint you. We cannot fail you.

 

Great Father, we will not disappoint you. I want the watchmen everywhere to begin to shout, I am not going to fail the Lord. I am not going to disappoint the Lord.

 

I want to hear you shout wherever you are. In the location in the U.S., in Canada, in London, in Enugu, in all the places, at Owerre, at Port Harcourt, and South Africa, at Ibado, and in Lagos, and everywhere, at Jaws, in Kanu, at Mina, all the places where you are. Begin to tell the Lord, I will not fail you.

 

I will not fail you. The people preserved the Bible. The apostles did not fail you, so I cannot fail.

 

Oh yes, Paul kept the faith. I cannot lose the faith. Peter kept the faith.

 

I cannot lose the faith. And the rest who have gone before us, they kept the faith. They preserved the Bible.

 

They preserved the fundamentals. They preserved the righteousness of God. And I am not going to fail you.

 

My father, thank you, blessed spirit of the living God. Thank you for what you are doing in our day. Thank you for choosing us.

 

You are not going to regret choosing me for this walk. You didn’t regret choosing Noah. And you are not going to regret choosing me.

 

You regretted choosing Saul. I am not Saul. And I know that you regretted choosing Samson.

 

And I’m not Samson. You regretted choosing Demas. And I’m not Demas.

 

And my father and my God, I will finish well. Therefore, blessed redeemer, I am not going to be finished before the walk finishes. I will remain in touch.

 

And I pray for all my brethren. Everlasting Father, our fire will not go down. Our lamps will not go out.

 

We will continue burning for God to the close of age. Therefore, Lord, give us oil in our lamps. Give us oil in our lamps.

 

Thank you, my father. Blessed be God forever. In the name of Jesus.

 

Now listen to music ministry. So that your soul can be defined. While we do His good will, He abides with us still.

 

And with all who will trust and obey. Trust and obey, for there’s no other way. To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

 

Not a shadow can rise, not a cloud in the sky. But His mind faithfully drives it away. Not a doubt nor a fear, not a sigh nor a tear.

 

God abide while we trust and obey. Trust and obey, for there’s no other way. To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

 

Not a burden we bear, not a sorrow we share. But a toil He does richly repay. Not a grief nor a loss, not a frown nor a cross.

 

Makes it best if we trust and obey. Trust and obey, for there’s no other way. To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

 

Ever can prove the delights of His love. Until all on the altar we lay. For the favor He shows, and the joy He bestows.

 

And for them who will trust and obey. Trust and obey, for there’s no other way. To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

 

Lord, She’s sweet, we will sit at His feet. Or we’ll walk by His side in the way. What He says we will do, when He says we will go.

 

Never fear, only trust and obey. Trust and obey, for there’s no other way. To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

 

Trust and obey, for there’s no other way. To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey. The minister in charge can take over from now.

 

And pray as long as the Spirit leads the congregation. Thank you, our Father. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
