Bishop David Oyedepo at Spiritual Week of Emphasis Day 3(10 Apr 21)
Give the Lord a shout of praise.
- You are breaking forth from henceforth to the right and to the left in the name of Jesus.
Lift up your two hands to Heaven everybody and give God thanks for the privilege to be part of this Spiritual Week of Emphasis. Give Him praise, give Him glory, there is none like Him.
Thank You Jesus. Give Him praise and glory and honour. Would you thank Him for answered prayers for these past three days. Our corporate prayers and your individual prayers. Give Him thanks from the depth of your heart. “Call upon me and I will answer thee”.That’s what He said, “and I will show you great and mighty things”.
Now ask Him to speak to you tonight. Jesus I want to hear from You tonight in Jesus precious name we have prayed.
Heavenly Father we thank You tonight for answers to our prayers for the past three days. Thank you for answers to individual prayers. Thank You for the testimonies of Your goodness that we hear everyday. Receive our thanks in the name of Jesus Christ.
Now speak to us tonight, establish us in Your will and receive all the glory in Jesus precious name.
FUNDAMENTALS OF KINGDOM WEALTH
Every agenda of the Kingdom delivers by revelation, He has given us all things that partain to life and godliness through the knowledge of Him who has called us unto glory and virtue. Our inheritance is delivered to us through the Word. So the Word you don’t receive or believe never manifests it’s reality in your life. More often God’s agenda is always laughable.
Somebody is about 90 years, You say he should come and count the stars. “That’s how many your children will be”. At 90 I’ve not given birth. They’re all laughable things. Very hot famine in town and you say by this time tomorrow there will be so much surplus more than there was before the famine began, tomorrow, 24 hours from now. They’re all laughable things.
Now here is a top man in the military of Syria. They recommended him to come and see the prophet, a very powerful prophet. The prophet said go to River Jordan. Go there and dip yourself seven times and be go home. They’re all laughable things. “But if thou be wise, you shall be wise unto thyself”.
Proverbs 9:12
Scorners pay a very gruesome price for it because they are never permitted to taste it. The scorners are never entitled. If you be wise good luck, if you scorn, bad luck.
Now tomorrow is April 10th. You know this is a very dated Church. There are very important things on every date. April 10th 1982 is a very project day in this Commission when seven prophetic pillars were unveiled by this tiny prophet who claimed to have heard from God as they’re all very laughable.
Now this boy came, it was a camp meeting of about 68 people. We were in a secondary School Facility and we called it the Power House. The power house is a prayer house set up to pray for the realization of the liberation mandate. Someone thought this small small boys, what exactly is wrong with their brains?
Now hear some many wrong things with our brain. The destiny of this age has been committed into our hand. You know people have been telling me Brother David is mad. The destiny of this age is in our hands and we cannot afford to toy with it.
Now this ministry is not out to debate over doctrines but to prove the power of the Holy Ghost.
I saw wings flying and I said “what are these my Lord? He said “These are aircrafts with you inside bearing everlasting gospel to the nations of the world”. Now this is what they call insanity. Market graded madness. You know in my place when madness enters the market it cannot be healed. So when somebody runs mad they say don’t let him enter the market o, because after entering the market, as far as they’re concerned he cannot be healed. Now as laughable as those ones were there came another explosive laughable one.
A tent shall be built that will seat 50,000 people. April 10th 1982.
Believe me some people departed from here because before they recover from one another one has been released and then the most mad or the most maddest. The Lord said to me that I shall be seen across the screen of the nations of the earth. There was no such technology known to the public. You are never a beneficiary of the Word you scorn. It’s only what you receive and believe that you’re empowered to experience.
The end time Church will be so wealthy. Okay. Amen. Oh my God. The economy of the world will be in the hand of the Church. How? That means they’ll be giving bribe because there’s no way that you can command wealth in our world today.
Hear what God said, the printing press of this ministry will operate at an industrial scale. Now one by one at various levels this things have come to pass. We who were mad enough not to scorn it were now beneficiaries of it.
Aircrafts or Whichcraft. Such fellows in Kaduna who were so angry with such statement also heard it. We didn’t look like it. But God said it and we believed it.
There is nothing you truly receive and believe today that you will not see tomorrow. There is nothing that you truly receive and believe today and prove that you believe by obeying it that you will not see tomorrow.
There is nowhere on this planet earth today Christian, non Christian, occultic where this Church is not known. Amen. They on the other side know us more than the people in Church. They know us and fear us to their pant because of the power of the Holy Ghost. How long is 1982 till date? How long is that? 39 years. We’re now living in the days of raw fulfilment of prophecies, without stress, without strain, just doing what He says to do.
We were praying these prayers since the beginning. Oh Lord save the lost, oh Lord heal the sick, oh Lord rescue the perishing. Have we ever gathered one time and say oh Lord send us blessings?
In the same vein, the greatest events of your life as unveiled in Scriptures will come to pass in your life without sweat.
So tomorrow we are celebrating God for raw fulfilment of prophecies. 39 years after we’re just dancing, we’re just singing. Amen.
One day I went to Kaduna and on my way back, we were driving to the airport and I saw one of those our major scorners waiting for bus in Kaduna town. I said “Look at, that’s one of our major scorners, one of our anointed scorners”. He was waiting for bus, we were already flying a plane.
When God talked about flying a plane, He delivered it in 14 years without praying for it. He told me about 50,000 sanctuary, He built it in 17 years after. Humourous God.
- You’re going to see wonders.
As laughable as they are they are equally as believable. Believable by sincere believers. They’re not struggling with it.
We hear that your pastor said you’ll buy aircraft, ah they can deceive you people, you all sat down there. You are degree holders, what’s wrong? You can’t talk to brother David? Oh my God.
One of my friends came on me one very bad day, he said this Prosperity message is dialectically materialistic. There are some grammar you’ll hear and you’ll take cover because if that bomb lands on your head you may not recover. I won’t forget because of the dramatic nature of it. Amen. But the same person said to me some years back, He said I just started reading Kenneth Hagins books. You didn’t tell us these things are there. You can’t hear because you’re scorners. This American Christianity. I said “Christ is not an American”. Is Christ an American? Amen.
Now let me tell you this and you need to hear it. The end time Church will be in command of the economy of the world. It’s God’s divine agenda. The end time Church, when I talk Church I’m not talking about the building or congregation, I’m talking about God’s people will be in practical command of global economy and most unlikely people who are simple enough to believe the simple truth of Scriptures will be in command, will be front liners in it.
We’re talking about fundamentals of Kingdom wealth, don’t scorn it or you can’t access it. For blessed is the man that fears the Lord.
Psalms 1:1-3
Be careful were you sit. It unsits you in destiny or enthrones you in destiny. Amen.
You can’t hang around scorners and become a goal getter. They always ruin you of your best in the Kingdom. Beware of hanging around scorners.
Don’t scorn your destiny to death. Don’t bother yourself about what is not your business. Face your business.
Beware of hanging around scorners or you sell off your birthright before you know it. I’m not doing any Kingdom advancement prayer. Good luck. I’m not reaching out to anybody, nobody is begging you. Don’t reach out. There is nothing about God that is not designed or ordained to add value to your life. You can scorn it off, you can embrace it and enjoy it.
Joshua 1:8
Somebody’s story is changing.
Beware of hanging around scorners, they will Rob you of your birthright and God forbid.
Deuteronomy 28:11
Give the Lord a big hand of praise.
So there is enough secrets in this book (The Bible) to make you a global lender while those who scorn it remain chartered beggers, professional losers. We heard that your pastor said you’ll be very rich, tell him now, nobody talks like that. So one of our deacons was crying, we’re family friends, and I said what about? She said they’re talking about you in town, that you said you’ll be rich. Please don’t say that again. I said ahhh, you have touched my sensitive part. I said “I’ll be the richest”. I saw as she burst into laughter. If you Google this name, richest pastor in the world. Ahhhhh Africa? My God.
I’m a local man, you know I grew up in the village environment, I lived in the village, but this book (The Bible) we got married long ago. Nothing decorates destiny like the content of this Book when employed.
I think we have done enough fundamental, we can even close now.
Don’t scorn it. I will take sickness away from you. Don’t say ahhh with Corona virus? There are other viruses coming o. I read something the other time, they said more viruses are coming. I will never be sick. Ahh no I can’t say that publicly.
There are people in this Church that will listen to me who will not know the meaning of sickness.
You receive and believe, you’re empowered to become. For instance every soul winner is entitled to healthy living. It’s not your making, it’s not my making. The Lord Himself is the sole author of the Bible. So every statement of Scripture is God’s own making. This is what I will do when you engage with this instruction and a faithful ambassador is entitled to healthy living.
Proverbs 13:17
2nd Corinthians 5:17-20
John 15:2
Say with me I receive and believe the verdict. You’re entitled to all round fitness, spirit, soul and body. You are entitled to it, it’s not like you’re being ambitious.
Now the end time Church is ordained a reigning Church.
Psalms 120:1-3
Proverbs 22:7
So the Church will be reigning in wealth in order to be ruling In the midst of her enemies.
This can be laughable but it’s very much believable if you trust. The end time Church is ordained a wealthy Church.
Zechariah 1:17
Haggai 2:8-9
Malachi 3:17-18
But continuous giving is what keeps our lines of supplies open. Continuous giving sustains us in the realm of supernatural wealth. It’s not a once and for all issue. It’s a once and again issue.
Let’s in a few minutes check one platform for provoking access to supernatural wealth. That platform is the altar of sacrifice.
Psalms 126:1
Sowings in tears are descriptions of sacrifice. That’s why the author of sacrifice is the author of supernatural turnaround to the believers.
Psalms 50:5-6
We serve a Covenant keeping God. So the altar of sacrifice is not a Church doctrine to gather money and do something, it’s the altar of turnaround for the believer.
The altar of sacrifice is the gateway to our wealthy place in the Kingdom.
Isaiah 56:12
How do we return? In tithes and offerings.
Noah’s altar of sacrifice enjoyed instant response from Heaven. As God smelled a good savour, God said in His heart, I will no longer curse the ground anymore for man’s sake. Noah has provoked my change of heart for his altar of sacrifice. Your sacrifice can avert any curse hanging around your life. Can I hear your amen?
Abraham’s sacrifice secured his generations after him. We serve a Covenant keeping God.
God responded to Solomon’s sacrifice making him the wealthiest king in Bible history. The Heavens opened up for him.
The altar of sacrifice is the altar of supernatural turnaround in our finances. Can I hear your loudest amen?
God instantly stopped the plague over Israel as David reared an altar of sacrifice.
2nd Samuel 24:25-25
So it’s not a scheme to make people give money. It’s an altar of change of story. The altar of sacrifice is an altar of change of story. It can be demanded of you by God and you may be prompted to do it by the Holy Ghost, whichever way.
When we began our Church planting by the Word of the Lord, we were on that Easter convention in 1987 and I was climbing the pulpit the Lord said to me it’s time to spread out. You know He talks to me a lot. I said Jesus where do we go to? He mentioned five towns to me in the north. Maiduguri, Bauchi, Wubi, Azare and Biu. And so this is April 20, we must step out in May.”Lord why is finances not coming in for this operation? Then He pointed to my car, God has a finger. “Give me that car”. Joy went up in my heart sir like never before and I spoke to my wife and said God just spoke to me to give that car”. She said “Praise the Lord”. She’s always in tune. Forever in tune. On my way home the same day, same day, not following day, not following year “My son David even if you don’t want to be rich, it’s too late”. Same day. I didn’t read it in a book. I wasn’t in a dream. He said it to my ears. Am I poor now? You can Guess. Praise God. Same day.
God will surprise you. I’ve been prompted several times on the altar of sacrifice without God telling me. Not one have not delivered. Do it as a Covenant between you and your God.
Nobody raised an offering for The Ark. The largest singular sacrifice we have ever received as a commission till date from one source came to the source that is not announced. It didn’t come from this Church. It came from one of the branches. The largest single sacrifice this commission has ever received since inception.
It’s not in local currency, it’s in hard currency. The largest single sacrifice anyone has ever made by my own understanding happened without an announcement.
Somebody sat down on his place and the Holy Ghost prompted him to offer a sacrifice towards The Ark. That’s how they could have their change of story. They’re are not waiting for general, corporate, just personal. Somebody’s story is changing.
Lift up your right hand and give God thanks if you got anything today. Amen.
The altar of sacrifice is to your advantage. Celebrate God for opening your eyes to see it. Give Him thanks and give Him thanks in Jesus precious name we have given thanks. Give the Lord a big hand of praise in the name of Jesus Christ.
