THE POWER OF KNOWLEDGE

[Music] Apostle Mrs. Leanne Covey, the founder and general of ASEA of the Lord's Garden Ministries, a ministry which is focused on bringing back the glory of God into the lives of people who have been battered by the world. She's a healing apostle and ministers powerfully to break people free from demonic oppressions. We believe you'll be blessed as you listen to today's word. [Music] Now, today's word. [Music] [Music] We thank God for His goodness, amen. That's all we can say. So what shall we say to these things? To these many things that we are seeing, experiencing, going through what shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who and what can be against us? Nothing, amen. So we celebrate God's goodness. Put your hands together once again. As we acknowledge the head pastor of this assembly, recommend to protect your son, amen. And my husband is in the Covey. God bless you, sir. And all the pastors in the house this morning, Reverend Charles de Chimeson, Reverend Solomon Cordo, Reverend I.B. Jangma, Reverend Cornelius, Reverend Mike, and Faustela. I know Reverend A.B. is there and Reverend Frank is also here. Put your hands together. Oh, clap your hands. Clap it is free. You don't pay to clap amen. Glory to God. And this is one of my own dear fathers here. You want to clap your hands and celebrate amen, my dad, amen. And the youngest man in this house, Mr. Seban. God bless you, sir. Now, if today is the first time of worshiping with us, lift up your hands and let's celebrate your presence. First time. Today is your first time. Oh, oh, glory. Oh, put your hands together. But the young man, God bless you for coming, amen. That means somebody didn't do their homework, amen. Teach us why your homework. You didn't invite anybody to change this morning. But praise God for this young man. God bless you, amen. This morning I thank God for grace. And there's a way that God has put in my spirit. I want to share with you. And it's about knowledge. It's about, no, someone say knowledge, someone say knowledge, amen. So I'm taking you on a trip on the strength and the power of knowledge. You know, there's one thing that or there are certain things that something we don't put our mind to. We are living life, but we must be intentional about life. Until you come to the point where you are intentional about life, the days will just go. And all to swear in August. This is I think the first week of August, right? Yeah. And you want to wear the year went. And above where the year went, what have I done with the year? What have I gained in this year? It's important to know. But this morning, I'm finishing to you about knowledge, amen. Knowledge. I'm reading to you from Proverbs chapter 24, the verse three to five. But I'm going to say through wisdom, a house is built. And by understanding, it is established. And by knowledge, the chain base, they filled all precious and pleasant riches. A wise man is strong. Yes. A man of knowledge increases in strength. In fact, the new living translation says a man of knowledge becomes stronger and stronger. That means a knowledge gives you an upper hand. Knowledge gives you a certain strength. And while I talk about knowledge, I'm talking about physical knowledge, knowledge about things as well as spiritual knowledge. Amen. I will say all knowledge, you know, you you must be a knowledgeable person, the opposite of knowledge. I don't want to mention it here. But you see, God don't want us to be knowledgeable. And even the giving of his way, the whole Bible is given to us so that we may know certain things. We may come to the place of understanding in life until you know about anything. You know nothing. And there are a lot of people who don't know much and are not ascribed me to know more. But as we grow physically in age, there was also increase in knowledge. God doesn't want us to live in ignorance. Amen. People who know something have the upper hand over those who don't know. Amen. If I will talk about the sense of Isaka. So these men were about 200 men. But they they knew their times and knew what to do with their times. Therefore, they were made leaders of in Israel. Amen. If you put somebody who is not knowledgeable in any leadership position, you can be sure that they'll be chaos. Amen. Are you with me this morning? Yeah, knowledge is not just just I know. It's not just information, but it's about the application. It's about understanding. If you buy like an appliance and you don't know what to do with it, you may use it for the wrong thing. But when you buy an appliance, the good thing to do is to read the manual that you know what to do with it, how to operate it and operate it well, then you get a better result for the the appliance that you have booked. But a lot of us don't understand that we are like that appliance that you must be knowledgeable about yourself, who you are, what you are here for, what you want out of life, where you are in life now, where you want to get to in life. And how are you going to get there? You must know. Otherwise, you just go one day after the other until the years pass you by. The sense of Isaka had knowledge, the power of knowledge. That's a title of my message when the power of knowledge. Amen. See, they had two qualities. Number one, they had an understanding of the times. And number two, they knew what to do because of what they knew. They knew which action to take at what time. Amen. And it must be the same with us. We must know what time it is in our lives, what time it is around and what to do. Many people know what is happening because we talk a lot. And sometimes when you look at even our nation, people talk a lot. We talk a lot. We complain a lot. But we are not applying knowledge to our talk. I was reading something this week and the man said that even wealth is gained two times of adversity. And I am a student because in the COVID year, when everybody was crying COVID, people were trying to hide. People were just thinking about their debt toll and all that. People were making money because of COVID. People were buying masks and selling masks. Who would do all kinds of things? People also found out their giftings. Because in that year, you couldn't go out to the market. So online purchases. People were making things and selling online. People made the most money during the worst time of adversity for the whole world. Why? Because they had knowledge and they applied knowledge. Amen. Two wisdom houses built by understanding it is established. But it is by knowledge that it's room to be filled with treasure. Amen. Knowledge will fill your life with treasure. Amen. Financial prosperity, good health and healthy relationships. You must know about everything there is to know in life. You are married. What do you know about marriage? It's not just being there. You are in school. Okay, I've come to learn. But what is your purpose? I remember when I was young. I used to say I'm learning because I don't want my mother to die. That was my purpose. Because she said that's why I don't learn, don't do well. She would die. That was my purpose. But that wasn't enough. Was it? I should have had a purpose that I want to learn to be this or do this in the future. So the young ones amongst you, you, it's not about your purpose. They learn. And so you are very angry when you're going to school. You are upset because they would do a remedial. You don't have to have said because at the end of the day, maybe writing, the result just came out right? Maybe writing your remedial is what to take you to where you want to get to in life in the future. Knowledge will give us growth. Knowledge will bring you peace. Knowledge opens doors of opportunities for you. I know you love to talk about spiritual things, but knowledge is very spiritual. You see, knowledge will protect your life. A lot of people die because of lack of knowledge. If a ghost wears it, my people perish for lack of knowledge. People die because of lack of knowledge. People eat everything because it's delicious. Right, even thinking that this thing can kill me. Food is good, but food can kill you. But everything good in this life can kill you if you do it or whatever in excess. Knowledge is power. Knowledge will protect you. By knowledge, wars are won. I've told you before that even my father will tell you, he's a powerful militiaman here, that they don't win the war on the battlefield. They strategize in their offices before they go to the battlefield. By knowledge, you win your wars. They just don't jump out and go to the battlefield. Even if you're in a battle or maybe in a spiritual battle or even in contact, "Aren't people with people about something, you must sit down and plan. How am I going to win this? How am I going to come out the victor? How am I going to come out victorious?" If you don't, they will outwit you every time. People are natural strategists. Some people are not natural strategists, but by knowledge you can strategize. Amen. Knowledge will keep you from deception. People are going through and people are deceiving people. And sometimes they are so subtle because they are knowledgeable. You know, I once met a young man. He said, "I was a prophet." And he said something to me. I said, "Hey, wait there. As you please say a sentence." Because he was just applying knowledge. He said that when he goes to a place to minister, he looks at the crowd and he sees women who are over 50. He knows that men are possible. They are setting things that men are going through. They know bending sensation, sweating, and ability to sleep. So he prophesied. He said, "Women here, we know how our narcissists show, we know that we are sweaty by heart, we know how to be proud." Then you get up. But the things that he is using, his knowledge of what men are supposed to ask. You understand what I'm saying? We must be knowledgeable. Otherwise, you enter into deception, you enter into false doctrine, you enter into bad relationships, and you fall into Satan's traps. Satan is a mastermind. He is a mastermind. And until you come to the place of acquiring knowledge, you fall every time. This is a success. You know the truth, and the truth shall set you again. Clap your hands for yourself. Knowledge is power. I want to encourage, because for me, in a few months, I'm going to be 60. And I've told myself that I'm going to scrap everything I know, I'm going to shove it, because I want to build up knowledge for the rest of my life. That's my new strategy in life. I want to build knowledge. Once I was supposed to be wise, I said, "I'm not there. I want to be wise. I want to have device solution, physical solution to every problem somebody puts before me. And to come by study, to come by knowledge, it will come by prayer. You know, prayer is good, but you must apply knowledge. If you pray, and you've been praying, I miss. You don't get it. Tell me somebody say, "I need knowledge." You see, being able to come knowledge releases power, power of the supernatural, physical knowledge also releases power. Amen. And people will not pay you for lack of knowledge. What gives one profession an upper hand over the other on its knowledge? When you are sick, you don't go to the cupping time. No, you go to the doctor, because you know that the doctor has knowledge about health, about how to treat you. And so you pay to go to the doctor, when your shoe has come, you don't go to the doctor, because he doesn't have any knowledge about repairing shoe, but you go to the cupping time and pay him to repair your shoe. What does somebody pay you for? What are people paying you for? Yes, but you yourself, what do you know that people are paying you for? So once you get to know what people are paying you for, then you must increase in that knowledge. Your knowledge will be based knowledge. No, people will go past based knowledge, and I want to go to the experts. I want to see, when you are sick, go to see the GP, general practitioner, but when you say something like this, I want to see a consultant. So you are building up in the same way in your life. Whatever you know, whether something you know, practical things you know how to do, you must seek to know it better. Amen. Those who know, who become stronger than those who don't know. Amen. General says that the people who do know they are God, they shall be strong, and they'll do exploits. People who know they are God, they will be strong, and they'll do experts. They'll do greater things. They'll become stronger than the average. Don't seek, or don't try to be average. Stop being average, or I'm the average Christian, I'm the average man, take average out of your vocabulary. Amen. You must not be average. If I were your average over time, you would not just be average, you would be minimum, because the world will pass you by. The world will pass you by. I saw something, a woman, I think she was about in her 50s, she was working in an office, and the young young boys and girls who had come were passing her by with AI, and then her boss was always shouting her head. And she had to go and do a course, because she didn't know. What do you know, and how are you increasing it? Amen. Your knowledge will give you power. Not yet gives you the upper hand. Knowledge will separate the sheep from the goats. Knowledge will separate followers from leaders. If you lack knowledge, you follow those who know. Amen. And so long as you are following, people follow it where they are going or where you want to go, but you must understand that in this life, you are on your journey. You are not on our journey, even twins, they are on individual journeys. But if you don't, if you lack knowledge, you follow people behind. These days, we are following all kinds of things online, we are following this specific, but you don't even know them. And you are following them, whether you are following them to the market or following them to their house, you don't know, you are just following them. We were most of them, they are lies. I remember some time ago, remember when someone said that he was in the traffic or something, then he wanted out and he saw a taxi driver and said, "A taxi driver is there, there is no kindness." So he said, "Follow the taxi driver." He was in the hurry. How many people heard that? And he followed the taxi driver, the taxi driver, and he got to his, the taxi driver's gate. Yeah, I followed him to his gate. Don't follow blindly. You must know where you want to go, how you want to get there, and then go. Amen. The sons of Isaka, they were different, but would give them special mention because they were different. What was the difference? It was about them working miracles. It was about their knowledge. They knew. And therefore, they were worthy of special mention. They had an advantage. They were made leaders. Ways up and knowledge will say, "Shall be the stability of our times." The fear of the Lord is a treasure. Knowledge and wisdom will bring stability to your life. When people are panicking about issues, you are not panicking because you know what to do. Hello, are you here? Ways up will help you create big things, do great things. Wisdom and knowledge is powerful. Amen. A lot of people start but they never follow through. Why? Because of lack of knowledge. God can give you a gift, but if you don't add knowledge to it, the same gift I was supposed to lift you up, that same lift will bring you down. A lot of people become so rich, footballers. They know how to play football. But they lack business eye-crumming. And so the average footballer or the expert footballer will make millions. But maybe after some years after their career down ground zero, why? Because they did not take a knowledgeable person and attach them to them as their manager to help them manage their wealth. But they could have even landed themselves. But if you don't know, find somebody who knows. Amen. People pay for knowledge. You must be paid for what you know and how well you know it and how well you apply it. People receive instruction and instruction and silver and gold are not better than rubies. Wisdom is better than rubies. Better than silver, better than gold. Wisdom is the application of knowledge. What you know and how you apply it, we must increase it. Ignorance is costly. If you are an ignorant person, you are doomed. If an ignorant is more expensive than anything you can imagine. If you are ignorant in life, you are a walking time bomb. Now sooner or later you crash. Ignorance is expensive. Tell us about ignorance is costly. Or tell us about ignorance is very expensive. Because what you don't know can destroy you. What you don't know can destroy you. But what you know can lift you up. God says lack of knowledge for lack of knowledge. My people perish. Knowledge about what? Knowledge about everything there is to know your life. Amen. When I was little or when I was younger, I went to school in America and those days I didn't know math at all. Now I know math but the math that I know is for calculating money. That's all. But I was very poor in math. But what I got that they realized that I was very good at reading, you know reading subjects. So when they are teaching math in class, don't take me to those reading lab and read. I read. I read from basic reading. But I was leaving. I was reading America history. 200 years of America history. Here in this little head. You know. And they were doing me because they did. [Ambient] ‒ So if we meet the average American, they think the Africa is a country. ‒ Unless the press are steady on Africa. ‒ But if they know about let's say past, they are experts of our cars. ‒ But answer about Motu, maybe they may not know. ‒ Because they specialize at making people very knowledgeable in their area. ‒ So when I came back, literature, history, every reading subjects. ‒ Speech Day. ‒ Leon Grant. ‒ Leon Grant. ‒ Leon Grant. ‒ Leon Grant. ‒ When it gets to math, Zeopold. ‒ Miriam Ma Sa. ‒ It was so terrible. ‒ Even FUE first university as a math. ‒ I wrote it two or three times. ‒ Why? ‒ Because I hadn't applied myself to know him. ‒ If I feared math. ‒ What's a boy called David? ‒ He came from Bunga Hufflep. ‒ FUE. ‒ He helped me pass my FUE. ‒ And he said, Leon, math is simple. ‒ Number one, take away your fear and study. ‒ I didn't know. ‒ And I didn't want to know. ‒ Because I was afraid of failing. ‒ Don't be afraid of failure. ‒ No, no, no. ‒ Failure failure is never final. ‒ Failure is never, you may fail one day. ‒ But if you apply your mind to knowledge, you will get there. ‒ I don't know which area of your life you are failing at. ‒ But go and learn, know about whatever it is. ‒ And you will make it. ‒ I'm telling you, you will make it. ‒ Lack of knowledge will cause you to perish, but knowledge will bring you into the increase. ‒ Hallelujah. ‒ Many people lose jobs because of lack of knowledge. ‒ Many people lose good relationships because of lack of knowledge. ‒ Less than business opportunities, merge opportunities. ‒ People are married. ‒ They don't understand the principles, governing principles of marriage. ‒ So they fail. ‒ And if you don't understand, you can be married five times. ‒ You fail five times. ‒ People fail in issues to do with their health. ‒ Why? ‒ Because they have no short knowledge. ‒ Because if you know that this thing will kill you, do it. ‒ But we don't know. ‒ And because of that, we perish. ‒ We must increase in knowledge. ‒ And this month after I finished writing by myself, ‒ God just dropped something in my mind about mentorship. ‒ And he said that, you see, a lot of people don't have people good mentors. ‒ The people who call mentors are people we see online. ‒ People we know from, maybe books or something. ‒ But mentors are not somebody you don't have a relationship with. ‒ And mentors are somebody who you know has done better ‒ than you have done in a particular area of your life. ‒ And it should be a personal knowledge. ‒ Somebody who can speak into your life. ‒ Somebody who can correct you and you not be offended. ‒ Who can correct you and not be offended? ‒ This month I'm asking your question. ‒ Who do you learn from? ‒ What are you learning from? ‒ Maybe you have physicists. ‒ Who is the great physicist that you are following? ‒ Whatever you are, who is greater at whatever you are doing ‒ and where you are that you are following? ‒ Who is your mentor? ‒ People don't have mentors. ‒ No. ‒ So it's my mind what I want to do and how I think I should do it. ‒ And then they feel. ‒ Who corrects you? ‒ I'm not saying a question. ‒ Answer me. ‒ Who can correct you without your being angry? ‒ Who are you accountable to? ‒ You must be accountable to somebody. ‒ That you be somebody in your life who can call you and say, ‒ Joe, Nauye and Yeh Jai. ‒ Out woofoo. ‒ But when you have come to a point where your knowledge is all you know ‒ and you are not prepared to broaden your knowledge by accepting counts. ‒ I was saying that in the multitude of counselors, they are safety. ‒ We don't have counselors. ‒ We don't want counselors because we think we are right. ‒ The moment you think you are right in everything or in anything. ‒ That is what you begin to feel. ‒ Because you may not necessarily be right. ‒ And if you are right, there's somebody who knows more than you. ‒ Who can speak the truth to you? ‒ Who speaks the truth to you? ‒ But you see, in life most of the time people speak lies to us. ‒ Oh, we are a deal. ‒ We are a deal. ‒ You are doing well. ‒ You are not doing well. ‒ And you know you are not doing well. ‒ But there are a lot of things you are happy. ‒ From such, stay away. ‒ That's right. ‒ Stay away. ‒ Is the past you must find somebody who can speak to you? ‒ Who can speak to you? 'Benefits' in knowledge, they will call you because you know. Nobody will call you because you don't know. Nobody calls them or doesn't know anything. But you must be an expert at what you do in order to be called. You go to an interview, they ask maybe three questions and from the three questions they will know the one who knows and they will know the who doesn't know. Don't just get up and listen to the interview, no. Praise the Lord. Benefits, you benefit from your knowledge. By your knowledge you build up your house, you fill your life with treasures. By your knowledge you avoid trouble, you avoid destruction. People are destroyed because they lack knowledge. And especially our children that we are raising, children are being destroyed today because knowledge is not being imparted into them. We take them to school, go to school, go to school, get all kinds of teachers, home teachers. But home teachers will teach them school knowledge. We have school knowledge, yeah. But when it comes to common sense, common sense does not come from book, common sense. I remember when I went to access those words and said for one, we had a teacher, he was called Mr. Kwanza. I was not forgetting. He was an old man very tiny but with the biggest and the longest head I've ever seen. And he called us and said, you are all children of come to this school. You lack common sense. Go to the gym and dancing. There was a GNTC then by the swimming pool, go to the gym and bring yourself a bottle of common sense. So if you go and buy yourself a bottle of common sense to drink, do what we did. We ran to the GNTC. We had 12, 11, 12. So we believed that they are selling common sense in bottles. In the GNTC, we went there in common sense, there was no common sense. And I don't even think we went back to 70, we really find the common sense. It was what we grew up to realize that there's nothing like common sense in the bottle. A lot of people do not have common sense. Somebody can have book knowledge but no wisdom. No godly with a no common sense. And so they are operating from their book knowledge. There are some people when you send them, go and tell this person this. When they go and the person has even done what you wanted to be done, those who can tell them lack of common sense. And I'm talking in relation to our life as well as our children. Because when you are grown up, your mind is pretty made up. But still, that doesn't mean you can't change. We must be able to change no matter who you are, how you are, how you must be subject to change if you want something better for your life. Because change is good. How many of you know change is good? Yeah, change is good. If you can't keep on doing the same thing and expecting change, that one they have a name for it. They say it is madness to think that you can do the same thing you do and get a different response. You will not get it. If you find out that in your life, certain things are recurring all the time. Sit down and ask yourself, what can I do? So I don't get this result again. And then do it. That's wisdom. But what we are talking about the times in which we are in and our children. We take them to school. They do all kinds of courses. This, that, that. But if we don't teach them common sense, they'll be educated fools. This house Sunday school youth people bring their children to main church and take them home and say that the time. But if your children have a party, you will take your, you go and drop your child at the party and sometimes sit in the car and wait for them or go home and come and pick them back home for the party. But to bring them for a two hour, godly lesson. So your children will have not only common sense, but God's sense, which is higher than common sense. We won't do it. That is again lack of common sense. It was all apology. You know something that things we teach here, or we say here, we don't say the same thing as the youth. We tell the youth class to shoot their age. We bring it down to their understanding and we teach in a way that they absorb. So you bring your children and take them home or you keep your children at home and come and receive three years from now, you bring them for deliverance. I am your father, but I'm watching because again, who corrects who? You say it will be offended. Now I'll say, did you get them? I, I was going to catch them because I don't want your child to be brought to me for deliverance. And maybe the demon will come with that child will be entrenched and very happy in the child. Are you understanding me? There's nothing greater. You can give your child than the wisdom of God. God's sense, common sense. Nothing greater. You can leave your child a million dollars. If that child does not have the wisdom, the knowledge, true good knowledge, God's sense, there will destroy it and become purpose and become thieves too. So parents, guardians, those I'm saying to you face plain plain. Stop it. Stop it. Let the youth come to youth class. Some say, because of that time, because of that, but you take them to parties. That's what you know, ex me. You take them to parties Sunday, Saturday, on Boko Party. They'll go sleep over. Sleep over. That's the worst one. People are going for sleep over this. Do you know what's in somebody's house? Do you know that spirit in somebody's house? Do you know who is there waiting to rape your son or your daughter? So sleep over. I mean, when I was young, I didn't know anything about sleep over. Maybe I'm a cake, but this I'm in one piece. I mean, if you say go to visit your friend, my parents have to know your friend's father, friend's mother, friend's house, and the location of their house. If they have a cut, they have to know and let the dog. You can't go anywhere. Oh, thank you. Those of you came to our community. God bless you all for my auntie's food. Oh, oh, clap for yourself. You did so well. I appreciate you, but I'm just bringing something up. When I went to from one who got to from, that's my parents moved to our community after the 79 coup. That's another story altogether. Before I had to have to go and know, keep herself kept there. So that's where we lived. You came to the house. Why are you going? Those of you came. Where are you going? Where are you going? So we were never exposed to anything. We were in the village. We read our books. We replay video games for those days on the video games. We read our books. Our parents were hard. Because they didn't believe in modern children and the children of the today continue. There's nothing like modern children. Children are children, but with the train up a child in the way the child should go. And when they are all, they will not be part for me. You say one, your son says three to you. You are filled. Your child should be standing beside you and talking back and saying, "Hey, my mommy, my mommy, my mommy, my mommy, my mommy." Hey, you are filled. Your child likes respect. They'll go to school and do the same thing. And when teacher, even these are quotas, don't even smoke. When teacher complains and they call you, you fight with the teacher. How dare you teacher? Do you know who my son is? Do you know who we are? They don't know, but the future will tell. Yeah, for those who understand their clapping, for those who are angry, be angry. You see, your children must end up better than you. You cannot be better than your children. Your parents brought you up a certain week. Why do you want to bring your children up in another way? You see, they call me Buhar. Only in being same. You know, what more are children? We couldn't be old. Children ate children food in my house at least. Children's food in the house was rice, beans, chicken, contemporary, and all that. Rice, you eat. I mean, children had children food. Why? Because they believed that certain foods would nourish our brains. And you can't say, "I don't like it. I remember what my brother didn't like cabbage." Hey, this cabbage issue, my father. I'm peck cabbage. He didn't like cabbage. He will be eating the cabbage and crying. Today, he said doctor of letters. Hey, imagine if he didn't force him to eat vegetables right now where he's at. What will he be doing? Listen, knowledge and stability will be the way he is. I am going to teach some of her times, let your children go up in Godly knowledge in wisdom so that the future will be bright. My daughter is here, my mother, she is here, she knows, me and my child are talking to her with my eye. If you have a step, I have taken root, it is coming, you know it is coming, it will come, bounding is because I won't raise you in a way that you are not fit into society. Because if your child will respect you, your child will respect the teacher. You sit there and you gossip about your friends and your children are there. My mother says, this, one child, this I am finishing soon, one child's mother had a boutique and she had a very good friend who always comes to buy this and never pay. So the woman, the sister had given the woman a name 20. The child was about maybe five or six, one day her friend was coming. The child was like, hey, 20, I know about no. She spilled the beans, it was the whole of it. It won't work out for Sunday, the pastor said that our children are emulating us and he said the joke, it wasn't a joke, he said that. Where his man says, the president of the president, he was in his room one day and the children, the school is closed but they come for, you know, recess. And he had one child insulting, one child. Or say, show this a bonus, yeah, remember I made a name to you. Now those of you, you know no bonus, yeah, one of my different bonus, yeah, one of them. I see the grown up ones. Boys, yeah, with this metal cuffs, they're big, I don't know if you didn't see. So the every child of today, we say cup. So the minister said as soon as he heard the child say, show it is a bonus, yeah. I mean, I didn't see, he knew that that child picked that from his mother. Let's invite knowledge for ourselves. Let's invite wisdom for ourselves and let's pass it down to our children. A child can say, I don't like this and you too. You know it's good for child because they don't like it, you too. What are you doing? You'll be shocked that child may be five today by the time the child is 14. You can't handle your child. It's too late. I want mothers and fathers today in this house. Go angling knowledge. Yeah, serious knowledge. And 10 things around you are children with better than you. Not just academically, but socially, mentally, character wise. They should be better than us. Otherwise, you can't take your child anyway. Therefore, I'm taking their child, their children to school abroad, and they come back something else. I'm not blame for your insult, but a lot of it depends on the foundation. Children, they are like books or they are like clay, patting your hands. You mold them. To your knowledge, add. Hey. Wisdom, quiet for my being. Let's laugh at the quiet. And you know, it starts from infancy. Baby. You think my child is just two? I'm being single. My child is just one, wouldn't you be single? Yeah, because they have a bit of business growing and developing. I've been blessed the grandchild. I'm a grandma now. Two days ago, I was talking to my daughter in love. No, my mother, grandmother, grandmother. And she was telling me that when she got there, the baby wouldn't come to her. It's only two months. When it picks a huge cry and we look at this mother. She's only two months, but that's strange because normally, children learn strangers when they are four months. Now, he's two months. When she went, he was less than two months. But even now, he knows that I don't know you. I'm not coming to you. I will stay with you. Do you know how? By the smell. So even at that tender day, no. How much, my one day's child is two? Three, four, five, six. And you are letting them behave. They got help us. We will learn knowledge. We will increase in knowledge. We will become experts at whatever we do. We will become expert mothers and fathers. We will raise our children with the godly knowledge, godly wisdom. So one day, when you are all like my dad here, you don't have a problem. You're not crying because of your sons and your daughters. No. You're part of them because you gave them knowledge. May God help us. May God help us for ourselves. And may God help us for how we raise our children. By knowledge, the world will celebrate you. By knowledge, you know, there are people in this world. They are always in their legends. It didn't come by just because they knew something. Some people didn't know or they knew more than that. Daniel Joseph Isaac. All these people, these patriots, do a man of knowledge and men of wisdom. And the script is still being written. And I know your name will be found in it. May the Lord bless us all.
