Amen. By the grace of God by the grace of God, we are going to be um having the last teaching for the day. And then is going to be with our uh anointing and impartation session and then communion. Hallelujah. Amen. How many of us are blessed already? Come on, wave your hands to Jesus. Please, be on your feet, everybody. Just take this song with me. Ah, Oluwa. Oh, shishere a gba wa. O ni a nu lo wa re o. O ni aye wa pada. Oh, seye. O wa Oluwa. O wa Oluwa. O si se a gba wa. The hand of the Lord is close, brothers and lords. Hallelujah. Father, we bless you. As we take this teaching, give instruction to your people. Release your word to your people in the name of Jesus. Thank you, Father. In Jesus name we pray. Hallelujah. Please, join us together as we have the sitting of this person. In this teaching um we're not going to give it any title. Hallelujah. Because we are going to move from one teaching to another. Hallelujah. But as we go on, I would like you to put things down, okay? Uh, we are going to talk a little about the job. I told you now that we are going to be looking at Luke chapter 10 verse 21, right? I said it earlier on. And um uh and few other scriptures that we are going to talk about communion, talk about anointing, and then we take them on. We take instructions, we do impartation. Is anybody here we are not yet baptized with the Holy Ghost? You're not speaking in tongues, anybody? Okay, you are speaking in tongues. You know you speak in tongues, please raise up your hands. Ah, you can't be on the fence. You must choose one. You know you speak in tongues? Raise up your hand. Okay, my not reason if you. You don't speak in tongues? Okay, do you desire it? All right. So, I going to get to that session um I just want you to know so that we're going to enter all of them in the few minutes that we have before we leave this auditorium. Hallelujah. As that 41 verse 15. The Bible talks there, it said, "And you shall do what? Shall rejoice," the last part of that scripture. You know, we read from verse 14 in the other time when we're talking about the right strength. The Bible says, "Fear not oh, worm Jacob." He said, "Oh, worm Jacob, you are worm." Jacob, without spine, without strength, without energy, without people around you. You cannot walk on your own. You only warm walk. Hallelujah. But God is saying he's going to make you a what? A new sharp threshing instrument. Say, "I am a new threshing instrument." You are not just another one, a new one, a sharp one. You are a threshing instrument. You are a threshing instrument. That's what the Bible says. You make them to be chaps. The Bible now say something that, "Then you will rejoice." You will what? Rejoice. And you know when the Bible says something, you must know it is true. And when the joy of the Lord comes to you, you must know that you have no other choice than to rejoice. I remember chapter 5, verse 5, what the Bible says there. The Bible says, "It is the spirit of God that shear brought the love of God." Are you in our hearts? The same thing that the way the spirit of the Lord shear brought the joy of the Lord in our hearts. Do you understand? The joy of the Lord is being spread across in our hearts. By what? By the spirit of the Lord. Amen. Hallelujah. Amen. So, we are people of joy. Now, how do we rejoice in the Lord? Is it rejoicing in Lord, just about smiling, or losing the you have to smile? But we're going to take a sample from Jesus. The book of Luke chapter 10 verse 21, what does the Bible say there? Can somebody open the Bible? I want somebody to read for us. Luke 10:21. Glory be to God in the highest. I believe some people are right, I believe you are all right and doing things. Amen. Is somebody there just for us? Who want to read for us? In the same hour? He rejoiced. Hey, look at it. Who rejoiced in the Holy Spirit there? Jesus. So, in that same hour, Jesus, is that Keba? Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit. Now, if you are using the Greek Bible, the Greek word used for rejoice there is agaliao. What did I say? Agaliao. Your teeth cannot come out, don't worry. Amen. Now, the word agaliao simply means you leap for joy. What did I say? You leap for joy. You jump for joy. Now, am I saying that Jesus jumped on that day? I didn't say that. The Bible says that. Hallelujah. And so, that means when the Bible says, "And Jesus," now, please do that again. In the same hour? So, it said, "He rejoiced in the Holy Spirit." It means baba was jumping. Do you understand? Baba probably, baba ran around because the word agaliao means to jump, to leap, to and you be a display. It's not something of the internal only, it is something of both internal and external. Amen. It's something that that it's manifested in the body. The body too has to feel it. Hallelujah. Amen. So, the joy of the Lord is just not just internal only, it's also external. Hallelujah. So, how many of us are ready to rejoice in the Lord this afternoon? Ah. Hallelujah. How many of us are ready to rejoice this afternoon? Glory be to God. I love, I love Psalm 3 verse 3. That scripture comes to me. I don't know who who has that scripture. Like I told you, I said this this this teaching there's no particular topic. Psalm 3 verse 3, you know what the Bible says? "For thou oh Lord, are a shield for me. You are my glory, and the lifter up of my head." You know, do you understand that? That's that that that that that that's what I say, that's song. It's a song anyway. People sing it as song. Of course, all the song is songs. For thou, oh Lord, you are a shield for me. Let's see where we tackle you. When God is your shield. Amen. And you know, one of the reasons Jesus rejoiced in the spirit in that place was because Jesus said, "Satan has fallen as lightning." So, when God is your shield, all your enemies, they fall at your feet. So, you are a shield for me. You are not just a shield. You are also my glory. And so, I shine by your lights. He sing there said, said, "As I look unto you, I become the light." Amen. So, as we believe us, we look unto God. What would we become? We become like him. We have changed from one level of glory to another. 2 Corinthians chapter 3 verse 18. 2 Corinthians 3:18, we are changed from one level of glory to another. As we behold o'er it. Amen. And so, we rejoice because we are becoming like him, because we are his children. We are his sons, we are heirs of God. We have angels attending much to us. As the beyond the situation around your life. Amen. Ah, maybe I should tell you, and even if you find a man on earth without one challenge or the other, at least you'll find it. Even that Jesus has challenges. Oh, you know that Jesus has challenges, dummy? Oh. Jesus was was going and those lawyers, they came, they said, "Baba," they want to ask you questions. Is it a challenge? If you didn't use wisdom in that place, they'd have get you. Even though you still escaped. Do you understand? He had the challenge, too. And so, he he had a lot. So, your challenge should not deprive you of the joy of the Lord in your life. Amen. So, we are going to rejoice like I said. We're going to rejoice because God is our glory and he's the lifting up of our head. Say, "I am lifted." I am lifted. I am lifted. Hallelujah. Amen. Now, We are talking about baptism of the Holy Spirit. Why do we speak in tongues? 1 Corinthians 14 verse 2. The Bible says, "He that speaketh in an unknown tongues, speaketh not unto man, but unto God. For that you, but to God." So, when we pray in tongues, we pray to you. We pray to God. Amen. We pray to God, he said, "How do you think the spirit you speak mysteries." Mysteries are not things that cannot be understood. They are just things that are difficult to understand. Amen. But the aim of the spirit, they are made available to you as you pray in tongues. Amen. And so, you can pray in tongues anytime. Pray in tongues when you're working, pray in tongues when you're driving, pray in tongues when you're talking. Somebody say, "Can it is it possible when you're talking to pray in tongues?" Yeah, you can. Pause what you're saying, pray in tongues. In fact, maybe, the number of tongues you speak per day should be much more than the number of words you use per day. Amen. If our mouths are more open to tongues than to talks, the the the the the the the one we say in understanding, maybe it might be better. Hallelujah. When you see man, men do export in the physical, check the inner. They are tongue talkers. Amen. Hallelujah. Glory be to God. And so, I'm saying this is that the spirit baptism you can get what I'm with me, so that when we say come out, we want you to be baptized in the Holy Ghost, we want you to start speaking in tongues, you can understand the reason. And the Bible say, "When you speak in tongues, you are building up yourself on your most holy faith." Jude chapter 2 verse 20, right? 1, 1 verse 20 rather. It says, "You build up yourself on your most holy faith, you build, there must be a building. You are edificying yourself. You are building up yourself. It's like you are ready for some things, and you are putting blocks by block by block by block by block by block by block, you are building up yourself." See, we can see, you can it's not madness if you pray in tongues in the market. Hallelujah. Ah, last month, myself and a brother, we are in the car and we were traveling at night. Thank God, just two of us in the car. We ask some other we join us in that car, they didn't join us, they left. Now, we drove for like an hour or so. We prayed in tongues. Like, you know, when you are healing your steering and you're praying in tongues, that thing is sweet. Hallelujah. Not only most serious note, you are blessing, no, the level of the tongues that you are sweet. Ah. Amen. Now, I'm just telling you the beauty of the tongues. And when you pray in tongues, you begin to see toys work out. Things will just work out. Things because there are places that your understanding cannot enter. Ah, there are places that your understanding cannot speak up. See, there are some prayer points that you will forget, but when you pray in tongues, the tongues will search to them. Hallelujah. Ah, you know, well, of course, we may not talk about generational things and the rest like that. But sometimes there could be some generational issues that we want to arise. Amen. You don't even know the name of that demon, and you don't even need to get to know, but when you pray in tongues, those things will set to them. Amen. And so, that's the reason we speak in tongues. Hallelujah. Amen. Amen. You build yourself. If you want power, you want energy in the things of the spirit, pray in tongues. Somebody will say, "Pray in tongues." Pray in tongues. Hallelujah. Amen. Pray in tongues. Do go first call with your friends, pray in tongues with them. Send tongues voice note to me. Ah, yes, it's not you see, when on a more serious note, somebody send me a voice turn a voice note. You see, it's it is it is they say, "O ma nni on yin." It it influences you. As I was listening to it, I was also praying tongues. On a more serious note, send it to your friends. Extend it. Instead of emoji, uh put on speaker, put tongues. Yeah, it's very supposed. Do you understand? Hallelujah. And so, I'm giving us these instructions, and all these, I want us to have it in our mind, so that as you go after this conference, we are men helped by God, we are strengthened of the Lord. Hallelujah. Now, why do we do communion and anointing in church? You know, there are a lot of all prayers in church. Should we do anointing? Should we do communion? Now, let me start with communion. Let me say, tell you that the first reason we do communion in church is because of what Jesus said. Jesus said, "Do this in remembrance of me." Do you understand? Jesus did not say, "You are You did this now so that you can remember me." No. He said, "As you do this, you remember me." Do you understand? You are doing it and you are remembering me. It's a continuous thing. "Do this in remembrance of what? Of me." Ah, let's even say that was time of Jesus Old Testament, you know? We say Old Testament of Jesus sometimes. Do you know that the apostles, they did it? Okay? At least that is New Testament. That was after Jesus. Then the Bible talks about the apostles' doctrine. I talked about breaking of bread. So, breaking of bread is communion. Amen. And so, when you are taking communion, we believe that you are taking the body of Christ. You are taking the blood of Christ. And that is why the material used doesn't so matter. For your bread, you can use ever. Doesn't matter. I don't know what you understand what I'm saying. It's not the most you have to use bread. They buy they use they they use the Jesus and all that. Doesn't matter. It is that symbol and that heart of what you are doing that matters. I don't know if you understand what I'm saying. Somebody say, "Give me money." Give me money. Either you give the person Naira or dollar, if once they are of the same value, there's no problem. Once they are of the same value. Do you understand? If they are not of the same value, there's a problem. One Naira is not equal to one dollar. But if they are of the same value, there's no problem. Either in Naira or in dollar. So, I'm saying, either you use the bread they use they they have in Jerusalem or you use the one you produce in Nigeria, there's no problem. Hallelujah. Amen. So, when you are taking it, you are taking the blood of Jesus. Somebody will say, "Well then, why do I need the blood of Jesus in my life?" Ah. Hallelujah. You know, the first thing it does is that it creates this consciousness, physical consciousness in you. A kind of physical let me tell you something. Everybody sometimes you need a physical connection. Do you understand? You need a physical what? Connection. Ah. Now, you know, we are having a lot of things in the world now. We're having each church. People worship online, they join services online. It's beautiful. But, as you see, say, have a one-on-one church at the same time. Do you understand? There are people who who lay hands on the TV and they get healed. Why? Because there is a contact. So, sometimes, physical contact are needed. And that's why many of you, if you have not done water baptism, please go ahead. You won't go to hell for not doing water baptism, do you understand? Uh-huh. It doesn't mean that you are not born again or you are not born again. Do you understand? But, please, do it. Why? Jesus did it. The apostles did it. Apostle Paul did it. Apostle Paul did it for people now. He said, "I baptized no one except this and this and this." Amen. You saw them. Did it. So, as a believer, these things are things, they are tenant of faith that helps you, even in your journey of life. Let's no man take away those things from your hands. What did I say? Let no man take away those things from your hands. Let no man takes away those things from your hands. The same thing with anointing. You are anointed for something. You go in the power of that strength. Hallelujah. Is somebody blessed this afternoon? Somebody blessed this afternoon? Amen. Hallelujah. Can we be on our feet everybody? If you are on our feet, everybody. Glory be to God. Glory be to God. Glory be to God. Thank you, Father. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. I have joy, joy of the Lord, joy everlasting forever. Now, how are you going to demonstrate that joy now? You will rejoice, right? You will jump up, you will leap, you can run, you can dance, you can clap, you can oh, hallelujah. Don't catch you here, please. Hallelujah. Amen. And please beat our drum very well, don't become with it. Amen. Glory be to God. Ah, so we are going to sing that song. I have joy. Call y'all, call y'all give us. Oya, sing. Oh yeah, sing. Oh yeah, sing. Hallelujah. How many of us are happy to be here this afternoon? Glory be to God. Come on, shout with a joy to the…
