I SET MYSELF ON FIRE AND PEOPLE COME TO WATCH ME BURN!!
HOW JOHN WESLEY PLANTED THE PULPIT IN HIS FATHER’S TOMB WHEN HE WAS KICKED OUT OF THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND
AMERICA CANNOT CAGE YOUR LIFE, MINISTRY AND YOUR POTENTIAL. THE FORCES OF HELL CANNOT LIMIT YOUR DESTINY.
GOD VISITS LANDS THROUGH HIS SERVANTS.
THE VISITATION OF GOD IS TO SECURE THE ATTENTION OF A TERRITORY.
A MAJOR REASON WHY GOD WILL STEP DOWN TO SECURE ATTENTION IS TO REDIRECT THE FOCUS OF PEOPLE TO HIMSELF.
I AM ANOINTED TO ANNOUNCE TO YOU, THE demon THAT MADE YOU WEEP IS ABOUT TO START WEEPING.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH OF NORMAL AND ORDINARY CHRISTIANITY, WE NEED SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY.
WHENEVER GOD VISITS, HE UNSETTLES PRINCIPALITIES AND RATTLES TERRITORIAL POWERS.
IF EVERYTHING ABOUT YOUR LIFE CAN BE EXPLAINED BY PEOPLE, SOMETHING IS WRONG.
THE REASON WHY THE WORLD TAKES US FOR GRANTED IS BECAUSE THEY CAN EXPLAIN US.
-Dr. Pastor Paul Enenche on “WHEN GOD VISITS A LAND” || North America Revival Fire Conference 2023 || Day One Morning Session.
Very very quickly, I’m going to give a short charge this morning and release us to prepare for the evening. In the Book of Acts of the Apostles 8:5, I want to speak very quickly on the subject, ‘WHEN GOD VISITS A LAND’! Church Gist. What happens when God visits a city, a Nation? We just read how Philip went down the City of Samaria. The same way like we have come down to Houston, Texas America and certain things happened. And I believe that those order of things will be happening here.
First of all, it is important to note that God visits lands through His Servants. When God said in the land of Egypt that He has come down, it was through Moses that He came down. He sent Moses into the land and He said, “I have come down”. Church Gist. When God wanted to change the story of Israel in the days of Elijah, He sent Elijah and here now, we are seeing God visiting Samaria through Philip.
When God visits a land, what does He visit to do?
1. He gets the attention of the people
The visitation of God is to secure the attention of a territory, is to get the attention of a people, especially where people have lost their attention and interest in God, especially when people have gotten overwhelmed with cares of this life, especially when other things have taken the place of God in the life of people. Church Gist. A major reason why God will step down to secure attention is to redirect the focus of people to Himself. The Bible said: “The people gave heed, they had no option than to give heed to the things that Philip said”. The reason why God will set any Nation on fire is to get the attention of the people. When He wanted to get the attention of Moses, He set the bush on fire and Moses was passing and he saw the fire, the bush was not consumed and Moses said: “Let me turn aside to see what is happening there” and as he turned aside God called him.
-I am here to announce to somebody, God is setting America on fire to get the attention of the people. Church Gist. He is setting your life, Church, your Ministry on fire in this Conference in order to get the attention of your city, of your family, of your community, in our generation. If you believe you are catching that fire, you shout a loudest Amen!
We will be talking about this later on. In the days of John Wesley, John Wesley had been kicked out of the Church of England and he went and planted the pulpit in his father’s tomb – the burial ground in the cemetery. Since they didn’t want him in Church, he planted the pulpit there and he preached from there. And as he preached from there, the crowd gathered and met him there at the tomb, at the cemetery and somebody asked him: “How is it possible for people to come to the cemetery to listen to you preach when people are struggling to go to Church? And yet you are at the cemetery and people are coming to listen to you?” And he told them and said: “I don’t do so much, the only thing I do is that I set myself on fire and people come to watch me burn! They come to watch the burning bush!”
-God is about to set a Ministry on fire, He’s about to set a Pastor on fire, He’s about to set someone on fire, He’s about to set America on fire and people are going to come and watch the burning bush!
-God is going to get the attention of your community. After this Conference, God is about to get the attention of your family, of your city, of your State, of your Nation!
2. He causes people to hear and see things that are supernatural and extraordinary
He gives people experiences that are beyond ordinary. The Bible said: “The people gave heed as they heard and saw the miracles which He did”. Anywhere God steps, there is something to see and there is something to hear. It cannot be business as usual, it cannot be Ministry as usual, it cannot be life as usual. There is something that cannot be explained that can only be experienced whenever God visits. I want your faith to explode right now. We just heard the testimony of a brother right now who had an unjust conviction, just by the declaration of the Word in the last year’s Conference, that conviction was cancelled. You saw the story of this our sister and mother whose son was estranged from the whole family, by the word of declaration that was reversed. Somebody here, get ready for something beyond the ordinary in your personal life, your personal Ministry, in your assignments. America cannot cage your life, cannot cage your Ministry, cannot cage your potential, the forces of hell cannot limit your destiny, if you believe that shout the loudest Amen!
She sang and wrote the song with her husband:
🎶 I’m tired of the status quo, there’s gonna be more than this… We are desperate people, we want more, more Lord! 🎶
There has to be more than this! Church Gist. There has to be more than waking up in the morning and chasing a job, there’s gonna be more than just looking for money to pay a mortgage. There’s gonna be more than just getting money to get a car. There’s got to be more than nine to five jobs. There’s got to be more than ordinary existence, that mundane existence! Church Gist. Tired of people coming to Church and returning the same way they came, they came bound and returned bound! They came as sinners and returned back as sinners. They came oppressed and returned back oppressed. They came possessed and returned back possessed. Church Gist. Enough is enough of normal, ordinary Christianity, we need something extraordinary, something supernatural. Enough is enough of people coming to Church because they expect to have coffee at the end!
I wish there is someone here today who will tell God, show me what I haven’t seen before, give me an experience I have not had before, step me into a dimension I have not entered before, I have dwelled too long on this mountain, I have remained on the same spot for too long. Cause me to hear what I haven’t heard before, cause me to see what I haven’t seen before. Give me an experience that will change everything about me. Church Gist. Listen, I told people, I said: “If everything about your life can be explained by people something is wrong, your life is too ordinary, your life is too natural, you must step into a realm where there are things about your life, about your Ministry, about your assignment, about your destiny that can’t be explained, there’s no way to explain it”. How do you explain the division of the Red Sea? How do you explain the miracle of water from the rock? Church Gist. By explanation, that an ocean came out of a rock! Water that fed three and a half million people, gave them drink every day for 40 years. That is more like fourteen million gallons per day for 40 years. How do you explain that a rock was housing an ocean? The reason why the world takes us for granted is because they can explain us, everything about our lives is what they know, it is the same with their experience.
-But God is bringing you to a point where the people will say: ‘I know that man but there are many things I can’t explain, his life is not ordinary, his life is supernatural, her life is extraordinary, there is something unusual I think it is the presence of God’.
Like Nebuchadnezzar said: “I can’t understand what I am seeing! I threw three men into the fire but I am seeing four men. This is not normal! This is not ordinary, this is not usual! I threw three people into the fire but I can see four people in the fire and the fourth man is not normal! The fourth man is not ordinary! The fourth man is not regular! There is something about Him that makes Him look like He is a God, He is like the Son of the Living God! Are you here today? I want you to get hungry, I want you to get desperate, I want you to make up your mind. God, you are visiting America, you are visiting my life! Church Gist. People hear and see when God visits, what they cannot explain!
3. When God visits unclean spirits and demons are rattled, they are unsettled
Whenever God visits a house, visits a family, visits a community, visits a Nation, He unsettles principalities, He rattles territorial powers, He causes a commotion in the camps of the powers of darkness. The witchcraft, occultic, demonic powers, they are unsettled. Church Gist. Listen to this, there is a power that makes demons cry, they shed tears, they cry. The Bible said: “Unclean spirits cried out!” They cried out, they wept! It was not just a screaming, it was a lamentation, it was a mourning. The demons began to mourn, they are doomed because they know that their end has come.
-I am anointed to announce to you, the demon that made you weep is about to start weeping. It is their turn to weep. The demon that made life hard and unbearable for you, for you as a Pastor, for you in America… The demons that made you question whether you are truly serving a living God, those demons are about to shed tears. They are about to cry!
There is a kingdom of darkness that is being unrattled right now, being unsettled right now. There is a commotion in the camps of darkness, and I deploy the Apostolic and Prophetic mantle of God upon my life. One day, we did an Anointing Service in the Church and gave people bottles of oil to anoint their houses and premises. There is a member of our Church in one of the locations that always experiences witchcraft attacks and demonic manipulation. After he anointed his premises, suddenly a human being landed physically in front of the house shouting ‘Help’! Whoever was in the realm of the spirit as a witchcraft power or a demonic power just crystallized in the physical in front of the house because there was a line that that witch could no longer cross. His partner in crime ran down, both of them afflicted on the floor, taken from there to the hospital, I am not sure of their survival.
In Elementary Physics, Newton’s Law of Motion: ‘Everybody continues in his state of rest or of uniform motion until compelled by some external forces to act otherwise’! Church Gist. So everything continues the way they are until a higher force arrives to make them act otherwise.
-I am here to announce to you that there is a higher force here, the Force of El-Shaddai, that is about to cause things to change, cause a shift in your life. He’s about to tame the roaring lion.
-The roaring lion can be tamed and there is a force here to tame the lion. Church Gist. And it shall be tamed here!
-On your return from here, the forces of the enemy, they will identify something on your life, they will realize it shall not be business as usual!
One man in our Church in those days had a woman attached to his life, he didn’t marry the woman and the woman would not leave him alone. She was a human principality because she had an altar in the room, she appears and disappears at will and was tied to this man for about seven to eight years. This man could not do otherwise until he came for a Service such as this. When he returned back home from that night’s Service, the woman saw him coming and began to reverse. Church Gist. She said: ‘Where are you coming from? Where did you go? I see fire all around you! She packed her things and said: ‘Bye’! And disappeared into thin air. Listen to this, the Bible said: “Jesus returned in power”. You see there is a way you are going to return from here, people have come from all over the place, from everywhere, from New York. From everywhere you came, you are going to return in another style. And the forces of hell that saw you and played with you before, took you for granted before, when you return they shall see another person.
I don’t know about you, but 🎶 I’m tired of the status quo, there’s gonna be more than this… 🎶
4. When God visits, affliction and oppressions are dissolved
They melt in the presence of El-Shaddai, they just evaporate, they vamoose. Because unclean spirits cried out, many that were tormented, afflicted and bound were instantly relieved. There are people with inherited afflictions, your father had it, your mother had it, your family people had it – Blood sugar, diabetes, hypertension, prostate disease, ulcer, cancer, they are leaving right now! Church Gist. Uterine fibroid is melting away right now. Paul the Apostle had a snake, the viper fastened on his hand; many are like that here today, there is a viper – A spirit of death, a disease fastened in one part of your body. But there was a fire! And Paul shook the viper! Whenever there is fire, you don’t have to fear the viper! If you can see the fire, no need to fear the viper, we are talking about the consuming fire – Jehovah is the consuming fire. If you don’t lack the fire, don’t fear the viper.
-Right now I announce and all of you watching online in America and everywhere. Some of you are still on your way coming, I’d like you to know that fire is already burning here, don’t come too late.
-Every viper from hell – The viper of disease, the viper of perversion in America, the viper of the antichrist, the viper of atheism, the viper of godlessness, it shall be roasted in this season.
Finally for today, till when we come back in the evening. This is the introductory Message, the main Message is in the evening.
5. When God visits, there is a change of climate
There is atmospheric change, there is a ‘climateric’ change, everybody knows that the climate is different. In Samaria, the climate changed and the people exploded in joy, exploded in celebration. I went to one of the cities in America some years ago and I was in the car with my wife, Dr. Mrs. Enenche and the Holy Spirit spoke to me in an English word and I won’t say it now. He told me and said: “This is the climate of this city”, terrible word! I had to check the dictionary to find the meaning. That is the climate of a place, it was dark, it was black, it was humid, it was choking, it was suffocating – That particular city. And different cities here have their different climate, you can perceive the dominating spirit by their activity in a place. There are places where you struggle to break through in prayers, you just keep trying to pray and pray and pray, you struggle to break through.
-But I’m here to announce to you, I don’t care the climate you are under, there shall be a change of climate. Whether is the climate of suicide, climate of death, a climate of murders and killings. There must be the change of climate!!
And when God changes the climate, the climate of God takes over the natural climate. When Israel left Egypt, God gave them a climate – The pillar of cloud by day, the pillar of fire by night. So they moved in the dry wilderness. They couldn’t feel the heat of the day, they couldn’t feel the cold of the night because they carry the climate that humbled the environmental climate – That tamed the climate.
-That is what is about to happen to you.
Who says that the demon over your territory cannot bow? Who says the forces of hell over your city cannot bow? All that is needed from you today is desperation. From the time of John the Baptist till now, the Kingdom of God suffereth violence and only the violent (desperate) take it by force.
-Lord! Things can’t continue this way with my life, they can’t continue this way in the Church I pastor, they can’t continue this way in the city I am in.
