We are delighted to welcome you to this Easter retreat of the Watchman Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement of 2025. Easter is supposed to be a time we celebrate the resurrected Lord.

 

It’s supposed to be a time of the Lord walking in men and in women proving that resurrection is true. So we want to assure you that this Easter retreat of 2025 is a landmark meeting. The reason is because there is a shift going on in the realm of the spirit and the time for the coming of the Lord is at hand and the devils are on their feet.

 

They want to undo sons of men and God himself also is not staying back. He too also is out to show that he is the Lord and therefore I want to assure you that the word that you’ll be hearing or you have been hearing in this retreat cannot be different from the words that were spoken by Christ and Jesus said the words I speak there are spirit and there are life and so the words of God that will be coming in this meeting is life-changing, is life-producing and therefore we counsel you to come along with us. The theme of the retreat is the challenges of our times, the ministry of the Washman Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement and the children of the ministry.

 

In other words if you sum it together it is the ministries of the ministry and therefore as usual I have the privilege that I quite respect and privilege I appreciate from the servant of God to speak to us this time but then before we speak to you I want to invite the music ministry so that they can play us minstrel. I want to play minstrel and I’m going to bring it from hymn number 236. Open my eyes I may see and we’re trusting that the Lord will open your eyes so you can see.

 

So can we have the music ministry play us the minstrel that will transport us into the realm we are talking about. Spirit divine, open my ears that I may hear voices of truth thou sendest clear and while the wave notes fall on my ear everything false will disappear silently now I wait for thee worthy my God I will to see open my ears open my mouth and let me bear open my heart let me prepare us to share. Silently now I wait for Thee.

 

Worthy my God, Thy will to see. Open my heart, open my eyes, illuminate me. Spirit divine.

 

Open my mind that I may read all of Thy loving word, O Thee. What shall I do? I can’t help but plead. Only for light from Thee I plead.

 

Silently now I wait for Thee. Worthy my God, Thy will to see. Open my mind, illuminate me.

 

Spirit divine. Open my way that I may bring true peace of grace to Thee, my King. And hold in love Thy word shall outreach, sweet as the notes that angels sing.

 

Silently now I wait for Thee. Worthy my God, Thy will to see. Open my way, illuminate me.

 

Spirit divine. You can lift up your voice and begin to tell the Lord to open your eyes that you may see. Open your ears that you may hear.

 

Open your mouth so you can bear tidings of mercy everywhere. Ask the Lord to open your mind so you can comprehend what you will hear. It is necessary that you should understand what the Lord is saying, what the Lord has said, and what the Lord will say.

 

And therefore, talk to Him. He wants to hear you. He wants to attend to you.

 

This is not another formality. This is a time to be with God, a time to express your feelings to Him. He is your Father.

 

He is your God. He is interested in you. That is why He sent Jesus to die on the cross for you.

 

And was buried, and on the third day resurrected so He can give you life. And therefore, eternal rock of ages, we come this moment unto the Lord of glory, unto He that loves us so much. He sent His only begotten Son, Jesus, who took our place so we can take His place.

 

Who died on the cross and resurrected so that we can be freed. And so Lord, this day I want to bring the living word of God, the word that brings life, the word that has capacity to change life. Jesus Christ is not a story in the history, it’s a reality.

 

And He died so we can have life. And therefore, everlasting Father, as we bring the word of God, even to your people, I want to ask that life will be transmitted unto your people, that they may experience the workings of the Lord, that they may experience the hand of the Lord upon their lives. I’m trusting the Spirit of the living God, even the Spirit of God that in the recent times have been telling me that there is a shift going on in the realm of the Spirit.

 

And He wants to bring His people into the realm where they can operate with Him, my Father and my God. Where they can hear the voice of the Lord and speak with the voice of men and the voice of angels. Where they can receive revelations and things of God.

 

Where they can understand the operations of God and the ways of God. And therefore, my Father and my God, I won’t come again before the Lord. I’m requesting, my Father, that you are going to open our eyes so that we can see the unknown.

 

The unknown aspect of the end time. There is a well-known side of the end time. For this time, Great Father and everyone, to reveal to us the unknown side so that we can strike balance, so that we can reign with God.

 

So that we can fulfill the ministry that God has given to us, even at such a time like this. So that we can be on top of circumstances. So that we can command authority.

 

So that we can rule with God so that our voices can be heard. So that we can meet up the time that heaven has been waiting. The heaven has been waiting for us to conclude our ways so that Jesus can come to rapture the church.

 

And there is no more time to waste. Therefore, blessed Redeemer, let there be revelation of mysteries. Mysteries that make man.

 

I want to speak as an oracle of God so that miracles can become our daily occurrence in our lives. Spirit of the living God, have your way and let your people be blessed. At the end of this ministration and other ministrations, my Father and my God, let the difference be very clear in the lives of your people.

 

Let them know that we have attended a conference, retreat indeed, where God has put us on top and we are moving on. I bless you, Spirit of the living God, as you help me to bring out the mind of God to the edification of the church. Thank you, blessed Holy Spirit.

 

In Jesus’ name we have prayed. Let the church say Amen. Amen.

 

Amen. Amen. Amen.

 

Amen. Amen. Amen.

 

Amen. Amen. Amen.

 

Amen. Amen. is so that we can strike a balance.

 

Understanding our times and its challenges will be of immense help to our behaving appropriately and living appropriately, and attending to our calling and attending to our ministry properly. The children of this circle, they had knowledge of time. They had understanding of seasons.

 

And this knowledge placed them above their equals. What made them different from their brethren was their knowledge they have about the times and seasons. They were few, but they were ruling the rest because of knowledge.

 

And in Proverbs 23, verse 23, we are counseled by Solomon, the wise man. He counsels us to buy the truth. But not only the truth, we are also counseled to buy wisdom, and buy instruction, and buy understanding.

 

For you to buy a thing, in buying, you have to give out something to get something. As you are giving out your money, you are getting something. So if the Lord is counseling us to buy understanding, then what he’s saying is that we should be ready to give up some things.

 

Maybe you’ve been sitting down since the meeting began, and your body is telling you that you should not give it full attention. Then you need to talk to your body. As you talk to your body and address your mind, to listen to the word of God.

 

What you are doing at that time is buying the truth. And as you pay attention, you are buying truth. You are buying understanding, which are very necessary for this time.

 

Again, the topic is understanding the two sides of our times, which is the end time. In Isaiah chapter 60, let’s take it from verse 1. As usual, my counsel to us as we come to meetings like this and we are listening is, when the minister of the gospel quotes the scripture, you endeavor to open it and go there. And then whatever counsel he gives to you should be followed.

 

I’m going to take a few verses from this, but my advice is that we should, at our good time, read through the whole chapter so that we can get the full story, the full gist. In Isaiah chapter 60, and let’s read from verse 1. Arise and shine, for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth and gross darkness the people.

 

But the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. And the Gentiles shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of the horizon. Lift up your eyes round about and see.

 

All they that gather themselves together, they come to thee. Your sons shall come from far, and your daughters shall be not at thy side. Then thou shall see and flow together, and thy heart shall fear and be enlightened, because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto thee.

 

The forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee. Verses 1 and 2 are urging us, rather, that we should arise and shine, because our light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon us. But then verse 2 says, for behold, the darkness shall cover the earth.

 

You can see that light is arising for some, while darkness is covering some at the same time. So the end time is a time of the light of God rising, and the glory of the Lord rising on one hand, while darkness also is rising, and gross darkness is covering the people. Now, we should understand this very clearly, that the end time, or our times, is not just a time of difficulty, a time of darkness, or a time of evil.

 

But our time is time of glory, time of honor. There will be a set of people lamenting, another set of people jubilating, a set of people mourning, another set of people rejoicing and celebrating. That is it.

 

If it is not so, then we find out that we have missed out. And so it follows that every one of us should understand that both God and Satan have strong interest in this time that we are. God is interested in this end time, and Satan also is interested.

 

God has his own agenda for our time, and Satan has his own agenda for our time. The agenda of Satan is to cover everywhere with darkness, and then cause darkness to rise upon every person. But the agenda of our God is to cause his glorious light to rise upon us.

 

This we must all understand. The writer of Revelation says that Satan knows that his time is short, and then on his walking around the clock, and God is not keeping quiet. In Joel chapter 2, second chapter of Joel, let us read from verse 22.

 

Joel chapter 2, and we read from verse 22. Be not afraid, ye beasts of the field, for the pastures of the wilderness do spring forth. For the trees bear red fruit, the fig tree and the vine do yield their strength.

 

Be glad, then, you children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God, for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the former rain and the latter rain in the first month. And the floor shall be full of wheat, and the paths shall overflow with wine and oil. And I will restore to you the years that the locusts had eaten, the cankerworm and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, my great army, which I sent among you.

 

And ye shall eat plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God. I have dealt wondrously with you, and my people shall never be ashamed. And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the Lord your God, and none else.

 

And my people shall never be ashamed. And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh. And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy.

 

Your old men shall dream dreams. Your young men shall see visions. And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids.

 

In those days will I pour out my spirit. And I will show wonders in the heavens, and in the earth, blood and fire, and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be torn into darkness, and the moon into blood before the great and the terrible day of the Lord.

 

And it shall come to pass that whosoever at this end time, at this period, shall call on the name of the Lord, shall be delivered. For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the Lord has said, and in the remnant whom the Lord shall call. In Mount Zion there shall be deliverance, and in the remnant whom the Lord shall call, there shall have the grace to bring deliverance to God’s people.

 

So brothers and sisters, our times, the end time is characterized by bad and ugly, but also by the beautiful and the good. Bad and the ugly, and then beautiful and the good. From Isaiah chapter 16, where we have read, if you read down, you will see that this is talking about end time, and at the same time also, showing the evil of the end time, and then I show you the good that God will make available for his people at the time of the end.

 

Unfortunately, many innocent children of God, though innocent, but ignorant, but ignorant, only know the bad. They only know the ugly side, and they can tell you 2 Timothy chapter three, one, two, seven, and 2 Timothy, 1 Timothy chapter four, one, two, three. They know it offhand, and what are they saying? Let’s look at what 2 Timothy is saying, talking about the bad times, and many of us in church only know about this, but they don’t know about the other.

 

2 Timothy, the third chapter, and let’s read verse one. These know also that in the last days, perilous times shall come, and then it reels out what will be happening. Men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, truth breakers, false accusers, incontinent fears, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasure, pleasures more than lovers of God, having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof, from such turn away.

 

Now, go look at Acts of Apostle, Acts of Apostle, the third chapter of Acts of Apostle, and let us read verse 19. Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out. When the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord, talking about a refreshing times coming from the presence of the Lord, and he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you, whom the heaven must receive unto the times of restitution of all things.

 

The word restitution there is talking about restoration, restoration, putting things in order, things being fitted well, how they should be, and so it follows that there is the positive and the precious side of our times, the end time, and the Watchman Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement has been raised up by the Lord to be an instrument of opening the eyes of ignorant multitudes to embrace this side, to experience restoration, spiritual restoration, and every other restoration, as we always echo in our mantra, Isaiah chapter 49, five and six, or our vision statement, and so we will be considering weekly the following points, number one, the bad and ugly side of our times, the end time, after that I’ll quickly go to the good and beautiful side of our times, the end time, then we will also be looking at the inevitable requirements for experiencing the positive side of our times, the end time, so the bad and ugly side of our time, the end time, I have read in 2 Timothy chapter three, and this time is described as perilous time, a time that evil will abound, a time that there will be a falling away from faith, in 1 Timothy chapter four, and verse, 1 Timothy chapter four, verse one, now the spirit speaketh expressly, that in the later times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils, this is talking about the last time, the later times, so in 2 Timothy chapter four, talking still about the later time, now in verse three, for the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, this is talking about this time, but after their own lost child, that they heap to themselves, teachers, harvesting ears, and they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables, that is pointing to our time, the ugly side, the bad side of our time, when people will turn unto fables, and we see them happening in our very eyes, when people will not pay attention to the truth of God, but then verse five, but what thou in all things endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, and make full proof of your ministry, so in the midst of this thing happening, Timothy was counseled by the man of God Paul, that he should, notwithstanding what will be happening, go on to do the work of an evangelist, and make full proof of his ministry, meaning accomplish his ministry, do the best that he could, so the Bible predicts many events, that are associated with our times, these events can be categorized as natural events, spiritual, sociological, and technological, and political, they are grouped into natural events, and that is why we hear about earthquakes, and then spiritual events, that’s why we see spiritual deterioration, we see the love of many for waxing cold, and then sociological events, we see the society decay, and where things being done, things that were unheard, things that were abomination, now are being celebrated, also technological, we see great advancement, both for, and we see positive impact of technology, as well as the negative impact of it, many boys and girls have been lost into the internet, because of watching pornography, nude pictures, and all those things, and many families have crashed as a result of that, politically also, we hear what is happening in the nations, wars are being fought, and they’re here and there, let’s go to Matthew chapter 24, to see the predictions, of the negative side of this time, Matthew 24, and let us read from verse four, and Jesus answered and said unto them, take heed that no man deceive you, because deceit will be at the highest heaven, and that is why we have religious deceits, and that is why the devil is opening up many fronts, that is why they are selling water, that the water that they pick from streams around, and they are labeling it, they say that water and all of those things, and they are selling coconut oil, and calling it all of those things, and labeling it, that’s why we have all that is happening now, because it’s been predicted, and so for many shall come in my name, verse five, saying I am Christ, I shall deceive many, many people have come, and answered different Jesus from here and there, and some one or two years ago, in one of the East African countries, some group of people committed suicide, and then many of them perished, because of an individual came up, and was claiming to be Jesus, and all that, so we see this happening, because it’s been predicted, and that is the ugly side of our time, now verse six, you shall hear of wars, and rumors of wars, see that you be not troubled, for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet, for nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes in diverse places, so if you see the opposition, that churches have on these days, since I was born, I have never seen the kind of opposition, that churches are having from inside, people that are attacking the church in the internet, no respect for the God of heaven anymore, pastors are messing up, and being messed up, and all these things are happening, they are the bad side of our time, now the bad side of our time, equally includes, many following false teachers, and false teaching, now increase in courtic groups, many groups are simply caught, they are rising, and they are labeling them churches, in my community, before, everywhere was a field, which signposts of native doctors, and some of those signposts have all disappeared, and now churches, now those places are not become churches, I had an experience some years ago, of a person that was around 2002, about 23 years ago, a person came for counseling, and then I asked him, he said I should pray for him for his business, I asked him what business do you do, he said I am a native doctor, and then we went into discussion, in the course of the discussion, he said that he’s not only a native doctor, but he’s also ministering, and he has a church somewhere in Lagos, in Abuja he operates as a native doctor, but in Lagos he has a church, Lagos, Nigeria, and he went and brought all the, the instruments of his practice, and then came with forms, that he usually give people who come for counseling, and for prayer in the church, and I saw with my eyes, not as somebody told me, I was an eyewitness, I was a personal minister to these, these native doctor pastor, that is combining them, native doctor in the federal capital, and then a minister of the gospel in court in Lagos, all these things are happening, because of the end time, the predictions about the bad side of end time, heresy is also there, many, many people are trying to correct Bible, things that are happening today are things, that I never heard, I never read of, since I became a Christian, I see them happening in our own day, there is deception, and the courtesan have gone to the highest heaven, all these things are there, and we can confirm them as predicted, even in second Peter, as predicted in second Peter, let’s go to second Peter, and let us look at the chapter two, second Peter, chapter two, these things should be known by every watchman, it is not all that glitters that are gold, unfortunately today, many people are running up and down, they don’t know the background of those that are following, but I can tell you, follow those you know their background, follow those of us that you know our background, in second Peter chapter two, verse one, but there were false prophets also among the people, even there shall be false teachers among you, who privilege shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that brought them, and bring upon themselves sweet destruction, and many, not few, shall follow their pernicious ways, their crooked ways, their smart ways, their charismatic ways, these men were found among them, orators who know how to use words, how to coin out fantastic words, that are appealing to their mind, appealing to their gullible, appealing to one who does not know the root of their matter, who is just JJC, Johnny Just Come, and so, many shall follow their pernicious ways, by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of, and through coerciousness, shall dare with feign words, feign words, unfair words, sweet words, make merchandise of you, who judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not, that is how apostle Peter presented them, now, other spiritual challenges, negative challenges of our times, include abounding iniquity, iniquity shall abound, and the love of many for Christ, for the house of God, for the Bible, for the things of God, for righteousness, will grow cold, and we see terrible coldness, upon the people, and then, faith and conviction also, of many collapsing, today, we find many people in church, their faith has collapsed, they have lost their conviction, no more interest in the fellowship, I remember, when we first came into the faith, how we were running to the church, I was glad when they said, let us go to the house of God, and we were on our toes running, I remember the days of Bolalea, and I would travel from Abuja to Bolalea, and as we got to Constance, you don’t need to ask any person the direction, whenever you see anybody running, you follow the person, but these days, it’s no longer like that, but that must not continue, God cannot tolerate that, people are waiting for us, God is waiting for the watchman, we all must rise, and then do what we are called to do, and so, it follows, that the love of many has waxed cold, there is coldness, there is lukewarmness, and Jesus Christ acts in Luke chapter 18, and verse eight, as he was teaching the disciples, how they will pray without ceasing, he concluded with saying, I tell you that he will avenge them speedily, nevertheless when the son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth, shall he find people still hot for God, shall he find still people burning for God, and so today, abounding iniquity has brought coldness upon many people, the environment has badly affected the people, even the watchman people, there is also increase of immorality, abortion also has become legalized, in many countries and nations, killing of a human being has become legalized, homosexuality have now become condition, that many developed nations will give, some developing nations, if they must obtain help, even from them, what an aberration, that men are now, promoting what they should not, there is so drug abuse, is in the increase, all these things, the fallout of the other side, of the end time, the bad side, Romans chapter one, 18 to 32, tells us about all these, that there will be, and so there is a worldwide revival, worldwide revival of worship of Satan, worldwide revival, right now in one of the states in Nigeria, you’ll find that the fastest growing religion, is traditional worship, but thank God for the governor, that have decided to tame them, and some of them he has arrested, and then I asked them to disappear, that if they disappear, then he will now employ them, and then engage them, I’m yet to hear that any of them disappeared, and they cannot disappear, this is just the devil, so there is a worship, a revival of Satanic worship, going on, a young men and young women, are now going to the riversides, all the riversides are all taken over, and young men that are supposed to be in cities, are now in the villages, and they are now reviving the worship of Satan, and also masquerade is also being revived, and traditional practices are being revived, in the local, but in the international also, Satanism is equally also being revived, a new age worship, in second Corinthian chapter 11 and verse three, but I fear less by any means, the serpent beguile through his subtlety, so your mind should be corrupted, from the simplicity that is in Christ, mind being corrupted, from the simplicity that is in Christ, in Mark chapter 10 and verse 22, Mark 10, can we please go to read, verse 22 of Mark 10th chapter, and it tells us there, for false Christ and false prophets, shall arise and shall show signs and wonders, to seduce if it were possible, even the elect, so signs and wonders, false signs and wonders, are happening here and there, and many gullible watchmen are confused, they are confused as they look at what is happening, and they are confused, but I want to let you know, that if you are not seeing great signs, as you’re supposed to see, in the midst of the people that are righteous, in the midst of the people that are meticulous, in the midst of the people that are holy, then you must know that, all the things you see in the places are simply fake, thank God they are now exposing themselves, and they are yet to expose themselves, God is answering our prayers, and that is why as watchmen, we must come out to seek to know God, and seek to get into a real relationship with God, and then I’ll walk with God, and understand the ways of the spirit of God, and the diversities of his operations, so that these people are being exposed, the people that are losing will be coming to us, and we’ll be giving them deliverance, and setting them free with ease, because this is our heritage, this is our heritage, this is our bread, it is for us, praise the Lord, and so there is also falling away, from Jesus, into apostasy, and preaching another gospel, as predicted in Galatians chapter one, six to nine, preaching of another gospel, therefore, our time is a time, we can conclude to say a spiritual slumber, time of losing grace, time of losing quality, that is the ugly side of this time, and time of losing focus, a time of losing knowledge of God, a time of spiritual dryness, a time of spiritual emptiness, and a time when if you are not careful, the oil in your lamp will finish, if you are not careful, you lose grace, if you are not careful, you discover that your lamp will completely go off, that is why we counsel you, that you continue to come, and continue to come to this retreat, for those of you who are coming for the first time, keep coming, and those of you that have been there, keep coming, I want to tell you that, as our pastor comes, you will hear more details, more in details, that he’s bringing, and so, now that brings us to the second point, the good and the pitiful side of our time, the end time, what a glorious time, something that should make every one of us smile, something that will make every one of us happy, because it’s not just about devil doing this, and devil doing that, about bad news, there is a good news, Joel chapter two, tells it all, in Joel chapter two, and let us read from, let’s read from verse 16, Joel chapter two, I will read from 16 to 19, gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breast, let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of his closet, let the priests, the ministers of the Lord, weep between the porch, and the altar, and let them say, spare your people oh Lord, and give not your heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them, wherefore should they say among the people, where is their God? Then will the Lord be jealous for his land, and pity his people, yet the Lord will answer and say unto his people, behold I will send you corn, and wine, and oil, and you shall be satisfied therewith, I will no more make you a reproach, among the heathen, verse 23, be glad then you children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God, for he has given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain and the latter rain in the first month, take note there is the former rain, and there is the latter rain, and the former rain the time has passed, we are in the day of the latter rain, and verse 24, this is what we follow in this end time, and the floor shall be full of wheat, and the fast shall overflow with wine and oil, and I will restore to you, the years that the locals have eaten, so the good side of our time, is that while the devil is ravaging people that are allowed to be ravaged, then the people that are willing to be recovered, the people will be recovered and restoration going on, now ravaging going on one side, and restoration going the other side, and that restoration will be anchored by the Watchman Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement, you and I, I want to hear you say amen, and so and the floors shall be full of wheat, and the fast shall overflow with wine and oil, and I will restore to you, the years that the locals have eaten, the canker worm and the caterpillar, and the palm worm my great army, which I sent among you, and you shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God, that dealt wondrously with you, and my people shall never be ashamed, and you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the Lord your God and none else, and my people shall never be ashamed, and it shall come to pass afterward, in the last days, in the later times, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh, while the devil is anointing his men, God will also anoint his own children, now and then there is going to be a battle between anointing from God and anointing from Satan, and we know that before Israel departed out of Egypt, there was a battle between powers, there was a battle between anointings, and we know whose side that won, as Moses released what he got from God, the magicians released what the devil gave them, at the point the anointing from God began to swallow the other, and at the point the magicians surrendered, and I want to tell you that, as we come to understand this side of the end time, this side of our time, this unknown side, this good side, this beautiful side of our end time, and embrace it with all our heart, and then I will begin to go out for God, and begin to walk for God, we will recover shortly, you will see the birth of a nation in one day, hallelujah, that will be, there is no circumstance that can make what God has gazetted not to happen, there is no man that can stop God from walking, and so he said, he will pour his spirit upon all flesh, your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions, and also upon the servants and upon the handmaidens, in those they will I pour out my spirit, and also it will show wonders by the hand of his children, so our times, the end time, is not only characterized by negatives, also with positives, go and read Isaiah chapter 60, and you will see that our time is a time when the son of one day will be like a son of seven days, that’s our time, our time is a time, let me show you, let’s go quickly to the Isaiah chapter 60, let’s look at verse 19, verse 19, the sun shall be no more your light by day, neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee, the Lord shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and the glory of the Lord, the sun shall be no more, thy sun shall no more go down, neither shall your moon withdraw itself, for the Lord shall be your everlasting light, and the days of thy morning shall be what? Ended, your people also shall be all righteous, it is for this time that God is speaking this about, they shall inherit the land forever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified, a little one shall become what? A thousand, and a small one a strong nation, I the Lord will hasten it in its time, that is accelerated oppression of God, even in our time, and then further look at the same chapter, verse 17, for brass, you are asking for brass, I will bring gold, and for iron, I’ll bring silver, and for wood, brass, and for the stones, iron, I will also make your officers peace, and thy exalters righteousness, that is the promise of God for this end time, and so it follows, there will still be a true church, a pure church, a holy church, the bride for Christ, it is this time, in the midst of confusion, in the midst of evil, in the midst of look oneness, there is a bride for Christ, a pure church, a holy church, a true church, revelation chapter 19, six to eight, tells us about the bride of Christ, and Ephesians chapter five, 25 to 27, tells us that Jesus Christ, worships the bride by his word, so that he can present the bride to himself, a pure virgin, now the gospel of Christ, will also be preached again, now to all nations, now it looks as if the doors of the nations are shut, but in our day it is expected, that the doors of nations should be open, so that the gospel, this gospel we are talking about, the gospel that the watchman is bearing, should go to the nations, chapter 24 of Matthew, and verse 14, and this gospel, not another gospel, not a watered down gospel, but a gospel that insists on righteousness, the gospel that insists that Jesus Christ was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil, the gospel, the pure gospel, the gospel that talks about, that if the son will set you free, you’ll be free indeed, the gospel that teaches that, you cannot be living in sin, and at the same time be a saint, it does not work like that, it is either you are a sinner, or you are a saint, there is no in between, and so this gospel that we are bearing, gospel that is intended to liberate men from sin, and give them grace to live, and both sin must be taken to the nation, not a gospel that accommodates sin, not a gospel that pampers sin, not a gospel that we see around us flying around now, that is the gospel that the nations are waiting for, the gospel that will pull men out from sin, and set them free, the gospel that I received, the gospel that every saint and every genuine watchman received, that set us free, that set us free from sin, that is the gospel that must be preached to all nations, and then it is after that, then that the end shall come, so that is wonderful, and take note that the streets shall be built at the trouble of time, this thing is going to happen, even in our day, and so don’t worry yourself, it looks as if the doors are shut, it looks as if everywhere is closed, it looks as if light is being subdued by darkness, but it can never happen, the children of Israel in Egypt, at that point it was like the nation has been lost, but there came a time that God came down, few days ago, I will tell him the Lord, that there has to be another coming down of the Lord, there has to be another word, coming down of the Lord, he went down to Egypt, and then I’m brought deliverance, that you need to come down again, because the situation we have found ourselves requires, that it should come down, so as to make this beautiful side of our time to manifest, that the nations are waiting for their manifestations, of the sons of God, and God has to come down, he went down in the day of Moses in Egypt, in order to bring the people out, he went down in the day of Elijah at Mount Carmel, God came down, and then the people saw raw power, our day is a period of what? Raw power, not this one they are talking, we are talking not the power from satan, we are talking about power from God, the original power, miracles that cannot be said, in the days of the apostles, they testified that notable miracles were recorded, now listen to me, thank God, I want everybody to say thank God it is Easter, and I want to let you know, that if there was a good Friday, then there must be what? Easter Sunday, and Easter Sunday is a day of what? Resurrection, and I want to tell you that, if the power that resurrected Jesus from the dead, if the power that resurrected Jesus from the grave, and from the dead, dwells in him, my friend, it will quicken your mortal bodies, your kidneys will come back to life, your organs will come back to life, and everything about you, otherwise it has not risen, we are not talking about the doctrine of resurrection, when Jesus met Martha and Mary, Martha was talking about the doctrine of resurrection, while Jesus was talking about the resurrection proper, practical bringing Lazarus, and Martha knew all the doctrines, I know that my brother was resurrected last day, Jesus said shut up, I’m not talking about last day, you are going to see it, and then he said unto Martha, if you will, did I not say to you, that if you will take away the unbelief, then you will see the glory of God, and so when they removed the unbelief, when they took away the unbelief, they saw the glory of God, that’s the power that we are celebrating this time, and therefore good news for all, that are seeking the watchman, globally wherever you are, the power of resurrection is traveling across, to prove to the world, that Jesus is no more in the grave, neither is he on the cross, and he has risen from the dead, he’s no more on the cross, neither is he in the grave, but he’s risen from the dead, and the empty grave, is there to witness, that Jesus Christ has risen, the angels that met the women, who came to anoint the body of Jesus, say he’s not in the grave, why are you looking for the dead, among the risen, so we bring to you, the living Jesus, not the doctrinal Jesus, the resurrected Jesus, not the doctrinal resurrection, and the power of the resurrected Jesus, is operating and man will be set free, you have been waiting, you have been waiting to, you have been waiting, you have been waiting, you have been waiting to see God walk, I tell you, that there is a shift, in the realm of the spirit, and you must adjust your mind, you must align yourself, with what is happening, so that you will not be left behind, so that you’ll be among those, that will fulfill their ministry, as God has ordained, and as God has chosen, praise the Lord, and so, the good side of our time, is a time of great glory, it’s a time of great glory, in Habeke chapter two, he said the glory of the letter house, now the letter is referring to this time, so our time, is a time of greater glory, greater glory, greater miracles, Jesus said, I go to the father, I go to the father, it’s a greater thing we do, because I go to the father, and therefore, our time, the end time, the good side of God, is opening our eyes to see, is a time of power, jamming power, power swallowing power, great power of God manifesting, and people saying, we never saw it in this way, that’s how it must be, and now it has been gazetted to be, Haggai chapter two, weekly and verse nine, Haggai chapter two, and I take you to verse nine, the glory of this letter house, shall be greater, than of the former, says the Lord of hosts, in the midst of what is happening, in the midst of the darkness around us, in the midst of wicked things that are happening, the glory of the letter days, becomes greater, than that of the former, that’s what the Lord is saying, and in this place, when I give peace, and says the Lord of hosts, that is what is coming, it is a time of supernatural increase, a time of abundance, in everything, material abundance, financial abundance, and abundance generally, Haggai chapter two says, you will eat plenty, he said the floor shall be filled, now why should it not be, look at the ministry that God has called us to do, is not a ministry will execute with few billions, say ministry that is calling for billions, and then how do you think that God, can give us such a ministry, at this time, and then he will not give us, the resources that are needed, and so when men are saying, that there is a falling down, the people that understand the ways of God, they will be said that is what, a lifting up, they will be said that is a lifting up, go and read Job chapter 22 and verse 29, a lifting up, financial lifting up, when people are saying, we have nothing, we will have surplus, God will not want us, to die in the cost of doing his work, the stress because of no money, and this and that, and this and that, listen to me, God wants to bring us into the point, into the realm, where we are, doing the work, and then spending billions, and the work of God is going on, and our blood pressure is not going up, today, little thing here, little thing there, this person blood pressure, blood pressure has gone up, because of little thing, but that is not the will of God, the will of God is that, we should have abundance, abundance of material resources, to be able to execute his program, remember that the people of Israel, when they left Egypt, that was when they were paid, for all the years of their labor, this is the pay time, this is a golden time for the church, this is a glorious time for the church, it is our golden time, and listen to me, apart from all I’ve mentioned, this is the time of restitution, of all things, God bringing back everything, this is a time of global spiritual awakening, what did I say? Global spiritual awakening, when multitudes will run to God, Isaiah chapter two, verse one to four, tells us about what is coming, Isaiah chapter two, can we read verse two? It shall come to pass in the last days, take note, last days, our days, our time, what will happen? That the mountain of the lost house, shall be established where? In the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills, and what will happen? All nations shall run into it, this is the time for global revival, global running, those of our brethren in diaspora, here each, this is the time that the nations should be coming, coming into the house of God, the people in those nations are waiting for you, therefore, whatever you need to do, to resolve whatever that’s supposed to be resolved, do that immediately, because the nations cannot continue to wait, chapter verse three, and many people, not few, shall go and say, come ye, let’s go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob, he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths, for out of Zion, out of the church, shall go for the law, and the word of the Lord, from Jerusalem, you can confirm that also in Micah, chapter four, and one to three, and then, it follows that nations shall be shaken, and strong nations, and formidable nations, will experience spiritual rebirth, according to Haggai, chapter two, six to eight, God said, I will shake, I will shake the nations, let’s look at Haggai, chapter two, I will shake the nations, and may I ask you, is it possible, does God have the power to shake nations, he has the power, he has the wherewithal, he has everything, that he will require, to get the nations shaken, and the shaking is going on, tell somebody by your side, that the shaking is on already, God is shaking the nations, after shaking the nations, he will take the nation, by the hand of the watchman, and anybody that stands on the way, to stop it, it is between him and God, and I plead with you, not to stand on the way, but be in the chariot, Haggai chapter two, and verse six, for God says the Lord of hosts, yet once it’s a little while, I will shake the heavens, and the earth and the sea, and the dry land, I will shake all nations, and they deserve all nations, shall come, I will fill this house, with what? Glory is opposite of shame, I will fill this house with glory, filling the house with glory means, God is going to bring spiritual things, good things in abundance, and material good things in abundance, and all that we need, the completeness of what God is all about, and what God can provide, says the Lord, he said the silver is mine, telling you what he’s talking about, telling you that what he’s talking about, is not only about spiritual matters, that it says silver is mine, the gold is mine, says the Lord of hosts, so I’m going to bring it, I’ll bring the silver, I’ll bring the gold, and my house will become a place of glory, that is what God is saying, and this will happen, Isaiah 66 says, can a nation be born in one day, but as soon as Zion travels, then there was a bet, there was given bet, and therefore God is calling on us, you and I, we must all return to travel, now he finds, it becomes very, very necessary, that every watchman must rise up, to face the truth, in fact it is very urgent, and inevitable that all of us should rise, because as he stated in Isaiah chapter 66, arise, as that word, shining, this is not the time to allow any doubt in your life, not allow, this is not the time to allow, all the small, small distractions, all the things that we are, that are distracting us, how can we carry elephant in the head, and then we are using our leg, to look for beetle, now you carry elephant on your head, and then you are looking for little, little things, God will help watchman, whenever we are to rise, and start shining, and start living right, and start pristine, and start praying, and start going into real time with God, what then are the requirements before we pray, if my people who are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and seek my face, and confess their sins, and humble themselves, I will forgive them, and I will hear their alarm, this is the time that, those who need to repent, must repent, and then need restitution, you go and do restitution, and at this time, rebellion, there is no room for rebellion, if you be willing and obedient, you will what, you will eat the good of the land, the land is good, but willingness and obedience, will make it available, for us to eat, now it is important that we take note of the following, that at this time, biblical balanced knowledge, and understanding of our times is necessary, those who know their God, they shall be strong, and do exploit, knowing his faithfulness, knowing his capacity, knowing his truthfulness, knowing his love, knowing what he can do, very, very important, in this end time, if you don’t know, that God is equal to the task, that what appears to be a task before you, and before me, is not a task before him, and that what appears to be a mountain before you, and before me, is not a mountain before God, now, if you have ever flown, into Abuja, that’s a particular rock, a particular rock somewhere, if you get to the foot of the rock very high, but when you are flying, on top there, the rock is like a hawk, you won’t even see it, now, it follows that, when we understand the God we’re dealing with, you find out that what seems to be a mountain, before Zerubbabel, is not a mountain before God, all the things that are making us to lose our sleep, and lose our rest, and lose our peace, and then cause our blood pressure to rise, and cause us to go to bed and we can’t sleep, there are nothing, when we understand the God we serve, when you know God you serve, the devil cannot threaten you with death, see me, the devil cannot make me afraid to die, if I die, the best thing that can happen to me now is to die, so he cannot come to threaten me, for me to live is Christ, and to die is what? Gang, praise the Lord, the more we deliberate a decision to return, to seeking God’s face, till he lifts up his countenance, and face on us, take note of that, we must pray, we must seek his face, we must tarry in prayer, until he answers us again, with revival spring, the thought is, we must learn to do according to the word of God, to act according to the word of God, and not our feelings, not your feeling, not my feelings, Ezekiel said, I prophesied as I was commanded, but before then he was asked, Ezekiel, is there any hope? He said, I don’t know, he didn’t know, but he ensured he did what he was asked to do, so yours and I is to do what God wants us to do, and that’s all, when we do what God wants us to do, like we were told by some of our ministers, just go and rest, and then wait for God, he will do what he knows how to do, Jesus said, my father worked at Hitherto, and I work, my father works on Tena, and I’m also working on Tena, so what are they doing? If not to attend to these matters, these matters that have made us lose our sleep, they are matters for God, and not matters for you, they are matters for God, and not matters for you, leave those matters for God, and face the matters that concern you, praise God, get stuck to the holy book, you see this book? Now December when we met, I was made to ask us to carry our Bible, I said this treasure, I’m traveling together, my Bible and I, may I ask you, how far now? How far now with you and Bible? How many chapters have you been covering? What impact has it made in your life? What revelations have you gotten from the word of God? Every day as I open the Bible, I get revelation, few days ago, as I was reading 1 Corinthians 14 verse six, I saw something, Paul said, I can come, if I come to you speaking in tongues, you will not understand anything, but if I come bringing revelations, and then bringing knowledge, and bringing and prophesying, and then I’m doctrine, I saw four ways that God’s word can be presented, as I read it I said, child this thing is there over the years, I’ve been reading this Bible for 50 something years, and I’ve not discovered this, I now understand as I read the Bible, I will look for revelation, at another time I will look for knowledge, at another time I will look for prophecy, at another time doctrine, and this time of December retreat, is a time of revelations, a time of knowledge, and a time of prophesying, that’s why you see us go the way we’re going, praise the Lord, because we want to reveal Jesus afresh to people, many people they need to see Jesus afresh, John the Baptist at the Isle of Patmos, came Jesus knew that John needed, that he should know Jesus afresh, that the knowledge he had is almost aspiring, and therefore it must appear to him, and then he came, so I am here delivered, I’m alive, I live forever, I hold the keys, and John fainted, he was like a dead man, I let him touch him, I said my friend, you can’t stand up, so from that point, his faith was gingered up again, he was restored, he was revived, because he was the only living apostle at that time, so he needed to experience Jesus, the way things are now, we need to experience Jesus afresh, and this is for our time, praise God. Now in Psalm 119 verse 31, David said that, I just talked to your word, Psalm 119, and I read verse 31, 119 verse 31, one, I have talked unto thy testimony, oh Lord, put me not to shame, I have talked unto your testimony, 111, Psalm 119 and verse 119, and he said there, he said, thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage, forever for they are the rejoicing of my heart, and if you read 127 to 131, and you see the Psalm is also talking about, his delight in God’s word, and so we must learn to get stuck to the book, this book must not depart from your mouth, you meditate day and night, as the world is meditated and it affects your mind, you find that once your mind is affected by the word of God, whatever that is affecting your body, you will take correction from what is happening in your mind, praise God, and so learn to speak the scriptures, in your day to day dealings, and not your own words, let the weak say they are strong, let the sick say they are healthy, that’s it, understand that no circumstance can change God’s agenda, forever oh Lord, your word is settled, settled in heaven, so that your matter, God’s word can settle it, the time we are is a time that we understand, that our time is a glorious time, there is a glorious time at the other hand, there is a shameful period, there is a lamentation at the one hand, there is a jubilation, there is evil at one hand, there is good at the other side, and then on the side we belong to, is the side of good and the side of light, but then as we take these steps, we contact the light, and then we must find out what God wants us to be, what God wants us to do, how he wants us to live, and abide by them religiously, live the way God wants you to live, talk the way God wants you to talk, act the way God wants you to act religiously, and then when we do that, then the positive side that we have shown, becomes a guaranteed matter, and therefore, having seen that our time is not just one side, that there is the ugly side, we all know that, there is the bad side, but there is also the beautiful side, which I’ve tried to reveal, and God will want us to shift our mind, from the ugly side to the beautiful side, and as we shift our mind to this side, and begin to say what, so this can be, so this can be, and then our minds are tamed, our feelings are tutored, and everything about us are tutored, with what is written concerning us about this time, it’s not about what is happening this time, it is about what does God say, concerning us this time, when you pass through the fire, what does God say? It will not burn you, you pass through fire, it’s not about what is burning, not about fire, not about what is happening, but what does God say, find out what God has said about this time, concerning you, concerning the church and concerning the program that God has given us and I’m call your mind on those things and you will see you will see right light rising in darkness you will see that while while others are weeping and crying and they are complaining you are on the other side because of the understanding what makes the difference between two believers is what they know I didn’t say what make the difference between believer believer and non-believer we all know that salvation make the difference between a believer and non-believer but there are things that about 15 things that that make the difference between two believers two believers listening to the same pastor listening to the same message now the message work for the other person but the message did not work for the other person the other one heard the word believed the word received the word and then the other one did not bother about so make a choice this moment as we rise up wherever we are and then come with mindful of excitement saying Lord thank you for this revelation knowledge I thought that the end time is about bad time I told her the end time is about evil I thought at the end time is about calamities I thought at the end time is only about death about danger about wickedness about same I never knew that it is a time of the fullness of your spirit it is a time of greater mountain is a time of greater power it is a time of the move of the Holy Spirit at our My father in heaven.
