Growing in the Word by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc.DD

The message emphasizes that God is actively building His church through the power of the Holy Spirit, not through human effort alone. It draws on biblical passages like Matthew 16:18, Zechariah 4:6, and Exodus 14 to illustrate that true faith involves spiritual movement, not passive waiting. The speaker teaches that believers are not victims but victors, empowered by the Holy Spirit to act decisively and overcome obstacles. This is rooted in the belief that God’s power works through human agency—specifically, by performing acts of faith and obedience. The Exodus story of the Red Sea is used to show how God partners with humanity, giving responsibility to Moses to stretch out his hand and divide the sea, symbolizing that believers must take action in faith. The message highlights emotional and spiritual responses—such as weeping in joy and inner groans—as signs of the Spirit’s presence and divine work. It also stresses that prayers rooted in the spirit, not just words, are effective, and that believers must actively bring change in their lives. Personal testimonies, such as a man restoring a paralyzed woman or a church being established in a spiritually hostile area, illustrate how faith and divine intervention result in miracles. The conclusion affirms that in the name of Jesus, believers are blessed, favored, and protected, and that God’s presence and power are active in every area of life. The message concludes with praise and a call to action, reminding listeners that they are part of a spiritual movement where faith, action, and divine partnership are essential.

The message you're about to listen to is produced by the low world, the deep ministry. You know Jesus said in Matthew's Gospel chapter 16 verse 18, "I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not reveal against it." And today he is building his church. Just when the Lord shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory, his building his church, his training his keeps. Amen. Every knee will have to bow. Every tongue would confess that Jesus is Lord, hallelujah. Zechariah chapter 4, "I'm reading from verse 6." I'm sure you had a beautiful day. Really? Praise God. Verse 6. "Then he answered and speak unto me saying, 'This is the word of the Lord unto Ziruba, saying, 'Not by might, nor by power.' But by my spirit said the Lord a host. Is it not by might, nor by power? What by my spirit said the Lord a host. Would you turn to Psalm 127? Psalm 127? I'm reading from verse 1. Have you found it? Good. Accept the Lord, build the house. They live in vain that build it. Accept the Lord, keep the city. The watchman wakes up in vain. I'll read it again. He didn't say they will not build. He said, but they are liberating in vain. It is not by might. It is not by power. What by my spirit said the Lord. We are children of God. And as children of God, we are different from the world. The world has its ways. But we do not belong to the world. We have been called out of the world. We are born again. We belong in the kingdom of God. We have our own principles of life. Our lives are not empty. There is a move of God's spirit in his church that makes the church different from the rest of the world. He said, you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people. That is, you show forth the praises of him who had called you out of darkness into his mavelous light. We have been called out of darkness to show forth the praises of God. The Bible says for us to declare his virtues and perfectures. He has brought us into a large place. Hallelujah. Glory to God. We have arrived in the realm of God's spirit because he has brought us here. Amen? He has brought us here. We are different from the world. Jesus said, if you love me, keep my word. And I pray the Father and He shall give you another comforter that He may abide with you forever. Even the spirit of children, the world cannot receive because He did not need a knower to him. But you know Him. Hallelujah. Then He said to them, for He dwelleth with you and shall be in you. Well, thanks be to God today. He is already in us. Amen. Hallelujah. He says, but you know Him. That's the spirit of God. That's the Holy Ghost. He said, I will pray the Father and He shall give you another comforter. He is the one in charge of the church today. And because He lives in us, with us, nothing can be impossible. Amen. I like to read again from Exodus 14th chapter. And I would like to read a little faster. So I hope you would follow very quickly. A beautiful story. From verse 1 and the Lord speak unto Moses, saying, "Speak unto the children of Israel, that they turn and encamp before by high, high rock between McDowell and the sea of our games, bears the font. Before each other encamp by the sea. For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, they are entangled in the land. The wilderness has shut them in. And I will hadn't fear his heart that he shall follow after them, and I will be honored upon fear and upon all his host. The Egyptians may know that I am the Lord, hallelujah. And they did so. And it was told with a king of Egypt that the people fled. And the heart of Pharaoh of his servants was turned against the people. And they said, why have we done these? That we have left Israel going from serving us. And he made ready his charred and took his people with him. And it took 600 chosen charred and all the charred Egypt and captains over every one of them. And the Lord had in the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt. And he pursued after the children of Israel. And the children of Israel went out with an eye-hand. But the Egyptians pursued after them all the horses and charreds of Pharaoh and his horsemen and his army. And of a took them and camping by the sea beside by high high rock before bears a horn. And when Pharaoh drew an eye, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes and behold the Egyptians matched after them. That's for stand. And they were so afraid that the children of Israel cried out unto the Lord. And they said unto Moses, because there were no graves in Egypt. Has thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? Wherefore has thou dealt us with us to carry us for out of Egypt? Is not this the word that we detail in Egypt saying let us alone at the midst of the Egyptians? For that being better for us to serve the Egyptians than that we should die in the wilderness. And Moses said unto the people, "Fear ye not." Say it. Come on. Fear ye not. Say it again. Say it again. Fear ye not. Hallelujah. Moses said unto the people, "Fear ye not." Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord which he was shown to you today. For the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you shall see them again no more forever. That touches me. Standing before the Egyptians who you have seen today, you shall see them again no more forever. That touches me. Standing before an invading force, strongest in the world at the time. This was the world power of the day. The strongest army on the face of the earth. They hadn't lost a battle, not once. They have destroyed nations and take their kings captive. Pharaoh didn't just say a group of his army. He said all of them. He released all his chariots because this was something he wanted to do for all the earths to know about. Because Israel grew up in Egypt and became in slave. But Pharaoh was going to get honored to get a whole nation in the bondage. It was a glorious hour for Pharaoh. Nobody wanted to miss this. And so he got his fever together. And they went. The best chariots of Egypt were there. All of his army went after the children of Israel. There was no way for them. But Moses, being the man that he was, a man who had known the spirit of God, one who had touched God, who had been in the presence of God, who had known what it was to be there when nobody here was there in the presence of God. You know Jesus said, pray to your father who sees in secret. And the father who sees in secret shall reward you openly. He's the one that sees in secret. Well, nobody here is there. But when he's going to reward you, he will do it openly. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. And he was watching all this. And Moses cried unto the Lord. Watch this. Verse 15. And the Lord said unto Moses, where for Christ now unto me? Why do you cry to me now? This is not the time to cry to me now. I don't know where you are in your life. Don't understand the mysteries of God. We have moved from the rod to the word. Are you hearing this? God said to Moses, with this rod you will perform miracles. But Joshua didn't need the rod. God said to Joshua, every place that the soul of your foot shall tread upon that have I given unto you. All you need is step your foot there and it's all yours. He said, no man shall be able to stand against you all the days of your life. All you need is a step there. And Jesus came and said, you don't even need to step there. Hallelujah. He said, you can have what you say. Glory to God. The revelation has moved from the rod to the word. Hallelujah. And things have changed. Can you say man? But here the principle is the same. God said to Moses, why do you cry to me now? God said, lift. He said first of all, he said, speak unto the children of Israel that they go forward. My people don't stop. That's what he's saying. He's letting Moses understand the move of God's spirit. We don't stop when we come into this arena. In this area of life we don't stop. We don't run away. We don't retreat. We don't submit. He said, no, don't cry now. Oh, hallelujah. So Sam has said, our soul is a skit. He said, the net is broken. And we are gone. Hallelujah. It's broken. Oh, praise God. Our soul is a skit as a bird. The net is broken. And we are escaped. And you know what? We've gone back. We escaped to go learn it, learn the word. And then we came back. You didn't catch that. Moses escaped from Egypt. The net was broken and he was gone. And then he heard the word of God in the wheel of this. At the back side of the desert, God talked to him. He went back to Egypt from where he had escaped. We only escaped to go learn the word of God. Will we get it? We come back. Hallelujah. He said, our soul is escaped. The net is broken. And we are gone. And we've come back. Hallelujah. Because God said, don't back to Egypt. Tell Pharaoh. Let my people go. He's the same thing, you know, when God brings you out or that devil is deritory. He feels you with the spirit, gives you this word and sends you back to deliver others from the hand of the devil. He said to Saul of Tassus, I'm sending you to go to the Gentiles, turn them from darkness to light and from the power of Satan under God. There was where he was. God brought him out and sent him back. Hallelujah. Oh, I like this. Verse 15 again. The Lord said unto Moses, wave for Christ down onto me. Speak onto the children of Israel that they go forward. But lift them up thy rod and stretch out thy hand over the sea and divide it. This is one of the most beautiful questions of the Bible when you see it for yourself. That God didn't say I will divide it. God told the man to divide the sea. God said to him, stretch your hand over the sea and divide it. He's a lift up your rod and stretch your hand over the sea and divide it. God didn't say I will divide it. He gave that responsibility to Moses. God wants you as his partner. That's why he said don't let anything happen to you. Don't sit down there. Oh, glory. Who am I talking to now? Listen, don't sit down there and expect a miracle. Does that shock you? Don't expect a miracle. Perform a miracle. Perform a miracle. Don't sit down there expecting it. [BLANK_AUDIO] are moving in the spirit we are refusing to be victims are you hearing me refusing to be victims refusing to sit down there expecting something to turn up God sector Moses why do you cry to me now stretch your hand all the Moses was expecting a miracle he said stand still and expect a miracle that's what he said but then he said the writing he said the Egyptians that you see today hallelujah you shall see them again no more forever he said the Lord shall fight for you and you shall hold your peace but he says stand still and see the salvation of the Lord which we will show to you today God said Moses don't stand here no wonder the God he said don't sit there expecting for the miracle we are sons of God we are not ordinary people we are born again if any man be in Christ he is a new creation all things are passed away and all things are become new and all things are of God hallelujah all these new things are of God this new creation is of God we are victors in Christ Jesus whatsoever is born of God overcome it the world whatsoever is born of God whatsoever is born of God overcome it the world I don't know what you are dealing with in your life I don't know what you're facing in your life maybe there's a love to one who seek or disease to afflict it what are you going to do is it we've been praying God is saying to you today perform a miracle you say I'd been expecting something to happen God is saying I'd been expecting you to do something he said Moses why do you cry to me now why now stretch your hand over the water divide it we are partners with God hall said we are workers together we God this is the reason he sent the holy ghost to come and leave in us that our lives can be fully supernatural we are partake us of the divine nature in the words we are participating in the divine nature we are not victims we are victors can you say amen he says in all these things we are more than conquerors you can turn around the circumstances of your life or you need to understand the principle of the word of God you can actually turn the circumstances of your life around don't wait there don't expect something to turn up do something do it and call it so the problem is a lot of people have never understood that the holy ghost has come to be with us with the holy ghost we cannot fail with the holy ghost we cannot lose it has become absolutely impossible for us to lose with the holy ghost the only reason of Christian can lose a fail is when you neglect the holy ghost hallelujah when you neglect the holy ghost you can lose you can fail a thousand times but when you work with him hallelujah you'll never fail praise God oh hallelujah I want you to see this still in the same chapter now I'm reading from verse 16 but leave that out by rod and stretch out I hand over the sea and divide it and the children of Israel shall go and dry ground through the midst of the sea and I behold I will hide in the hearts of the Egyptians and they shall follow them copy cats you know and I will get me on upon Pharaoh and upon all his hose upon his charist for all his horsemen and the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord when I'm done with Pharaoh it doesn't sound like that in your Bible verse 19 and the angel of God which went before the camp of Israel removed and went behind them and the peel out the cloud went from before their face and stood behind them it came to pass it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel and each was a cloud and a darkness to them but he gave light by night to these so that the one came not near the other all the night and Moses stretched out his hand over the sea and the Lord cost to see oh do I like this watch it verse 21 and Moses stretched out his hand over the sea and the Lord see always Moses and the Lord can you get it Moses and the Lord partners making your partner in your business making your partner in your family making your partner and see what happens in your life hallelujah watch this now look at this where are we verse 21 Moses stretched out his hand over the sea and the Lord cost the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night listen you're not talking of some little river it wasn't a little pond we're talking of the red sea you know what the sea is or talking of the red sea the sea not a swimming pool the Lord cost the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night and make the sea dry land and the waters were divided and the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground rather this is a fact and the waters were a wall onto them on their right hand and on their left and the Egyptians pursued I think they were really crazy they pursued and went in after them to the midst of the sea they also went into the sea Pharaoh even all Pharaoh's horses and these jars these horsemen and it came to pass that in the morning watch listen is a long distance you understand long long distance the Bible says do not fret when you see the wicked prospering this is the righteous prospering do we get prosperous also that means would of them are working in the sea on dry ground just with a little more hallelujah just wait a little more you're gonna turn back and they'll not be there hallelujah verse 24 he came to pass that in the morning watch the Lord looked on to the host of the Egyptians through the Pilar fire and of the cloud and troubled the host he troubled them do you understand watch this is nice and took hey listen the charlots went riding into the into the the sea the midst of the sea on dry ground so they were driving and the horses were pulling this charge watch this in verse 25 it says God took off their chariot weers you know why he don't want anybody to escape by the time he lets the water loose he doesn't want anybody to run out he took off their chariot weers he took off the chariot weers that they drove them heavily I mean no more weers now so that the Egyptians said let us flee from the face of the issue for the Lord find it for them too late now and the Lord verse 26 said under Moses stretch out line and can you see always it's a lot and Moses he he wants to. todayna gynni heken jo. Hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna. Hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna. Hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna. Hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna. Hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna, hanna. Man is a spirit. He has a soul. And because he has a soul, he will always respond emotionally to anything that gets into him. When God gets to you, you will respond when he gets in your spirit. The spirit is the inner man. That's the hidden man of the hearts. But a lot of times people allow themselves to only relate with God from the outward man, from the flesh. They praise him, they leave their hands, why they are posing for the Lord. Hallelujah. You haven't seen anything yet. Sometimes it's a little angel that goes like this elasticity and they bring them back down. They can't keep them up. But there are times where you just can't bring them down. Every time you take them down, they seem to go up. Before you know it, they just go up again. Hallelujah. Sometimes you worship the Lord and those tears that come in down. Not tears of sorrow. You are overwhelmed by the spirit of God. That's where you need to get to. Do we need to get there? Yes, that's the healing points. When you're healed, learn to heal. Because when you heal to the spirits, you know the Bible says in Romans chapter 8 verse 26, "Likewise the spirit helpeth our infirmities. For we know not what to pray for us, we ought." Likewise the spirit himself helpseth our limitations, he says. He helps our weaknesses. The Holy Ghost helps our weaknesses. We'll pray about something. We want to make a change, we want to affect a change. It's our responsibility to affect a change area where we need to change. Don't cry old God, change things. Jesus said, "You shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost is coming upon you." And when he said, "You shall receive power." He wasn't talking about authority this time. He said, "You shall receive do-namis." That is the dynamic ability to cause changes. That's what power is. He said, "You shall receive the dynamic ability to cause changes." When you receive the Holy Ghost, so when you received the Holy Ghost, you actually received the dynamic ability to cause changes. That's the ability to affect changes. You received it when the Holy Ghost came to leaving you. But sometimes you do not know how to affect a change. But we're learning, can you say amen? We're learning. He said, "When the Lord shall build up Zion, He shall appear in His glory." Yes, this shall be reading for the last generation. Praise God. And it's happening today. He's building up Zion. He's gathering together the outcasts of Israel. Can you say amen? Amen. Oh, hallelujah. Praise God. Yes, it's a spirit's work. Likewise, it's a spirit himself. Help it Irene. infirmities. For we know not what to pray for as we ought. For the Spirit. Praise for us. He inner-seeds for us with groans that cannot be ordered. Grownings deep-size that do not come out and articulate speech. So we find ourselves crying, these tears coming down our eyes. Sometimes the words at this time don't come out so loud except when. The Spirit puts the word of prophecy in your mouth and you speak it out. I put the word of praise in your mouth and you speak it out. You want to infect the change? This is it. Let me show it to you from the word. Psalm 126. Hallelujah to Jesus Christ. Are you there? Oh glory. I want to read from verse 1. When the Lord torn again the captivity of Zion. We will like them that dream. One, two, seek Psalm 126. Verse 1. Are you there now? You know when the miracle takes place you are like a dreamer. Hallelujah. Oh glory. Hallelujah. It's wonderful to have a miracle. Oh we're going to put that girl on atmosphere for miracles. What they gave their testimony at the church in worry. She was being with smiles all the time. I saw the tape all the time she was smiling. Think about it. A few days earlier. What kind of a smile would she have? She had become a hopeless invalid from a mother accident. She couldn't walk. And now in church she's standing. Hallelujah. Oh glory. Glory to his name forever. Wow. Then was our mouth filled with laughter. And our tongue with singing. Then said they among the heath and the Lord had done great things for them. Yeah brother. Yeah. Yeah. A mouth filled with laughter. Our tongue with singing. When the world looks at us they say hmm the Lord has done great things for them. Yeah. The Lord had done great things for us. We're off. We are glad. Then somebody says torn again at captivity. Oh Lord has the streams in the south. Somebody says oh do it for us. If it tells you how it was done for them who were rejoicing versus one, two, three. Then that's so in tears shall reap in joy. If you saw in tears you shall reap in joy. Are you catching this? They that saw in tears shall reap in joy. Oh this has been my life's experience. Every time and I'm alone with God and I pray and then those tears come down my eyes and I'm there praying to God from the depths of my soul. I remember the words of Jesus. He said the father who sees in secret shall reward me openly. Amen. They are sawing in tears. No it's not talking about tears out of sorrow. It's not talking about tears out of self pity. No no. Tears that come by the power of the Holy Ghost because the spirit of shadows you. Overworms you. Then you begin to saw the words of faith, the words of power as you release them by the fate of God because you're overwhelmed by God's spirit and these words are coming out. You are saw in tears. Look at it again here. He that do it for and weep it. Have you ever weeped for joy? That's what he's talking about. This is weeping me in joy for a night but joy come out in the morning. This kind of weeping is not the weeping because somebody hits you or because you lost money. No not tears out of self pity. These are tears from one that's overwhelmed by God's spirit. Overworm by God's spirit. He's got something he wants to deal with. He's got something that he wants to change. He wants to effect a change somewhere, maybe in his job, maybe in his finances and he's there in the presence of God and the spirit takes over when the spirit moves upon you. There's a change. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah to his holy name forever. Look at this. He that do it for then weep it. Carry in bearing precious seed. Pressure seed is the seed of the one of God. Hallelujah. He's going. He's going bearing precious seed. He's taking the seeds with him. I'm going to weep. I'm going to weep in the presence of God. I'm going to weep out of pain. No. I'm going to just let the tears of the spirit flow down my cheeks. It takes the word with you. I love what the prophet said is that take with you words. Hallelujah. Take with you words and offer the curves of your lips. Hallelujah. Oh, glory. Offer the curves of your lips. Take words with you. Take words with you. Do you remember what he said? Take words with you. Take words with you. Take them with you and then begin praying. See the different kinds of prayer. Now, I'm going to talk about the scripture of prayers now. I'm talking about different kinds of prayers. There are prayers that don't work. It's not how much you talk. It's where the prayer is coming from. Is the prayer coming from the man's spirit or coming from the man's lips? The one that's coming from the man's lips don't work. The one that's coming from the man's spirit. What do I mean by that? From your innermost being when you speak the word of faith is a response of the human spirit to the word of God. That's why it works. Hallelujah. Look at this. He that go at fort and weep at bearing precious seeds shall doubtless unfillingly. Doubless. Come again with rejoicing. Bring in his sheaths with you. What a harvest. Can you say amen? What a harvest. You saw him praying. You saw him praying. He was praying. You almost couldn't hear his voice. Think about Hannah in the Bible. My lips were moving but our words were not heard. He looked at her. She is coming down her cheeks and the priest looked at her and said, "Woman, aren't you tired of your drunkenness?" Oh, she cleaned out those eyes and looked up and she said, "Sar, these are not the words of drunken woman. I'm poured out my heart before the Lord. Call me the Lord, grant you whatever you want from him." And she said, "They may and we don't bring." Then she left there. She had poured out her heart. Faith had come. She was not praying prayers of self-pity. Faith had come. Oh, glory. Faith had come. What is your life like? God does great things. He's working on your behalf. You will show up in places where you didn't go. You'll be amazed. That's happened to me several times. As you show up in places that you didn't go. They'll tell you they saw you there and you were not there for good, not for evil. I'll tell you a youngy chose story. He wanted to build a church in this little town and the whole town had been wholly given to a guardian guard, an evil spirit, but didn't know it was an evil spirit. They were all washing that guardian guard and the priest of that guard was there. And so when he came and wanted to start a church they said no. We've been here many many years before you. So we cannot let you have a church in this place. He insisted he had rights to have a church in that place and they said no. Well they said we're going to chase you out of town and burn your tent church. He was using an over tent for a church and they said we're going to burn it up and we're on you out of town. So they gave him a setting number of days to quit and he didn't. He was praying and praying and praying and praying and calling out in God, hallelujah. Then the priests came to him, the priests of that shine. They came to him and they said we'll strike a deal. There's a woman who's dying. She's been so sick. Now she's paralyzed, totally paralyzed and she's sick and dying. The horseman is a drunkard. So there's no hope from the horseman. And in that condition she had a baby. So her baby is not well fed and she's in such a terrible condition and she's so dead that she's in a mess. They said if you're Jesus can heal that woman. Who believe you? And then you can have your church. Praise God. So he came, got some of the brethren together and they cleaned out the woman's place and arranged things in the house, cleaned it out and made food for her. They gave him about 40 days or so, a month really. They gave him one month. Within which is Jesus was to perform. So he began to preach to the woman and the woman didn't make things better. She said I would rather die. What am I going to do? She said I'd rather die and the men please you've got to believe in Jesus. Well you know two reasons now. He wanted to do women he would all right but there's an ultimate one month. So the woman didn't believe. For a while he was trying and trying and the days were running. So one morning he went to pray in the church while he was praying and praying and praying and praying. Suddenly he was in the trance and a big snake came into the house with a human head. He said it was a beautiful snake. So the snake came in and he was surprised to see the snake come in but with a human head. So while he was looking at the snake the snake spoke up. He said you have come here to trouble me. Now I'm going to kill you. You want to stop my people from serving me? I'm going to kill you. And then leaped up upon him and when that happened to him he began to struggle and fight with the snake. He was a trance you know. And he was fighting with the snake until finally he was able to get the snake off of him and hit him on the ground and smash the head of the snake. Then in the trance there's so many people who had come to see him and he carried the snake and came out to meet them and said look at what you've all been serving all these years. He's not been serving God. You've been serving this devil. And then suddenly he came back from the trance. And he was so glad. He said God he was praying and he was glad about it. But you see he had to pray. You understand? So one morning that morning later in the morning while he was praying with some other brethren because the time was running out. He heard a loud noise. People were coming from a distance. Then someone ran to him and said pastor run away. Run away. The people are coming for you. He wanted to run. Then the spirit said don't you ever run from the devil. So he stopped and he was waiting. Well this is the days. They're coming to bomb up the church and run us out of town. But the people came. And some were coming closer. He began to notice a woman who was carrying a baby. And while he was looking at my seeing rights, the women seemed to resemble that dear lady who had been paralyzed and had little hearts without them. No, no, no, it cannot be real. He said. And as it was looking, no, coming closer. Then the woman yelled out pastor thank you, pastor. Thank you. Thank you. See, I'm here. See, I'm here. And he was wondering what happened. And the loud crowd of people came with her rejoicing. Then she said pastor thank you for coming to my house at 2 a.m. in the morning. And pastor said no, I didn't come to you. Oh, you came at 2 a.m. You came and you said to me, woman in the name of Jesus, rise up. Hallelujah. In the name of Jesus, praise God. No, he said, I didn't come to your house. No, I didn't come to your house. Oh, yes, pastor, you came. I heard your voice. I saw you there. Brothers and sisters, the holy ghost takes up our form and our shape and speaks with our voice sometimes. He said, woman in the name of Jesus, rise up. He said, when you said it, I got up. Now look at me. Thank you for coming to my house. And interrupted him and the world dancing and shouting and shouting and shouting, praise and God. The miracle was there and it could not be denied. They said, now you can have your church and then they went to the place where the shrine used to be and gave him the land and they destroyed the shrine and said you can build a church right here and build a church right there. Come on, give a lot of hand. Hallelujah. Well, he didn't do that, but see God works with us. Jesus said, I'll pray the Father and He shall send you another comforter that He may abide with you forever, even the spirit of truth whom the world cannot receive because it's see at Him not this holy ghost. He's the only one that appears in different forms. He can come with your face and bless somebody and He's done that so many times. Sometimes I say something to some people that he has something totally different. God said to them, but because I understand the move of God's spirits, I don't argue. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Sometimes I tell someone who has cancer as in the name of Jesus, you that has cancer, you're here. Another one who has a near, he has the same person, but what he hears is not cancer. He hears you that has a near, you're here. And then when they both give their testimony to somebody sitting there, they say, gosh, that means he's a near, he's a cancer because you don't understand nothing, you see? But we know the move of God's spirits. Hallelujah. Oh, glory to his holy name. He said, open your mouth and I will fill it. How can you explain it? When it's standing before you.

Podcast Summary

Key Points:

  1. The church is being built by God through the power of the Holy Spirit, not by human strength or power, emphasizing divine partnership and spiritual authority.
  2. Christians are called out of the world as a holy, chosen people, with lives governed by spiritual principles, not worldly standards, and empowered by the presence of the Holy Spirit.
  3. Faithful action is required—believers must actively perform miracles and effect change, not wait for miracles, as the Holy Spirit enables and empowers them to overcome life's challenges.

Summary:

The message emphasizes that God is actively building His church through the power of the Holy Spirit, not through human effort alone. It draws on biblical passages like Matthew 16:18, Zechariah 4:6, and Exodus 14 to illustrate that true faith involves spiritual movement, not passive waiting. The speaker teaches that believers are not victims but victors, empowered by the Holy Spirit to act decisively and overcome obstacles.

This is rooted in the belief that God’s power works through human agency—specifically, by performing acts of faith and obedience. The Exodus story of the Red Sea is used to show how God partners with humanity, giving responsibility to Moses to stretch out his hand and divide the sea, symbolizing that believers must take action in faith. The message highlights emotional and spiritual responses—such as weeping in joy and inner groans—as signs of the Spirit’s presence and divine work.

It also stresses that prayers rooted in the spirit, not just words, are effective, and that believers must actively bring change in their lives. Personal testimonies, such as a man restoring a paralyzed woman or a church being established in a spiritually hostile area, illustrate how faith and divine intervention result in miracles. The conclusion affirms that in the name of Jesus, believers are blessed, favored, and protected, and that God’s presence and power are active in every area of life.

The message concludes with praise and a call to action, reminding listeners that they are part of a spiritual movement where faith, action, and divine partnership are essential.
