Your Light Has Come Mercy Conference, February 2023 by Apostle Joshua Selman: MP3 Download & Sermon Notes

• Let Your light shine upon our hearts, O God
• Let Your light shine upon our destiny
• So God, do us good
• Let Jesus be glorified

Every encounter must lift you

Every encounter with the Holy Spirit and every encounter with the word of God is for the lifting, the rising and the excelling of the saints

There is no genuine encounter with the Spirit of God, no genuine encounter with the word of God, that leaves the saints at the same level 2 Corinthians 3:17-18

If it is the Spirit of God, even through His word, there must be growth, there must be transformation

Among the many things the Holy Spirit will be doing in this conference are very strong impartations and activations

To activate means to make what is there but not yet visible come alive. The assignment of light, among other things, is to make manifest

In an atmosphere where the light of God is, there are activations: graces, giftings, capacities in the spirit

You must be very sensitive as the word of God comes. What you are receiving is beyond information Ezekiel 2:1-2

The Spirit entered, not just information. Information entering is a lecture. Spirit entering is revelation that quickens

It has been my burden and my prayer that believers will appreciate the atmosphere and the ministry of the Holy Spirit

I submit that, in as much as we have experienced the charismatism around the things of God, I think believers corporately are yet to fully appreciate

What the Holy Spirit in partnership with the word of God is able to do and produce out of a believer

To maximize conferences like this we must be intentional about receiving and preparing our hearts to be imparted

Realms and dimensions

There are realms and dimensions you must access to reveal certain possibilities of the Kingdom. The possibilities of the Kingdom are not revealed at every level

Illustration: the convulsing boy

The disciples were given liberty to pray for one who had a spirit and was convulsing. They prayed, they spoke, and nothing happened

Jesus returned from the Mount of Transfiguration, met the case already on ground and drove out the demon

The disciples were saddened that prayer was there, confession was there, but there was no result. They asked Jesus what they did wrong

It is not just what you say. It is the realm from which you are standing to speak. Gabriel speaks from where he stands Luke 1:19

You can say something at a realm and not experience certain possibilities, not because what you are saying is wrong

The dimension you are standing in needs an upgrade in the spirit to give power and substance to your speaking

Every realm has the possibilities it produces. You cannot want the possibilities of a higher realm from your current realm. It would not work that way

God brought many of us to this feast of light, not necessarily to change what you are saying

But to elevate you to a higher spiritual pedestal where you say those things with greater strength and power and see God move in dimensions

Illustration: "God bless you"

You have said "God bless you" many times from morning till night

A father in the Lord comes and says the same "God bless you" and the realm of the spirit reacts in a way that did not happen for you

May you rise in the name of Jesus. This is my prophetic word for you.

Every dimension where you have been for a long time, may this conference stretch and shift you to higher pedestals.

At the end of this conference it will be clear with a note of victory in the spirit that there has been an elevation.

Your words will no longer be empty and barren, not just a sounding cymbal. Your word will carry potent power in the realm of the spirit, known by angels, known by demons.

Light: the believer's true potential for dominion

This is a very deep subject. We could come for a whole month trying to exhaust the riches contained in this concept

In the understanding of light holds the true potential for the believer's dominion. Our dominion in this Kingdom is predicated upon our access to light and our understanding of it

Isaiah 60:1-3, Isaiah 60:19-20

When the Bible says the sun shall be no more your light, it doesn't mean you will not need the sun and the moon. This is a very strong spiritual communication

It means the vacillation that comes with day and night. Once it is night there are many things you cannot do, you wait until the sun rises again

Through light you access a technology where for you it is neither day nor night again

When the sun is your light, once it is night you have to be patient for at least 12 hours. He is saying you will not need that technology of waiting

You outsource a system in the spirit by light

Even when it is darkness like it was in Egypt, for you it is going to be light perpetually Exodus 10:23

This everlasting light is unto you, not unto everybody

Verse 20 gives perspective to verse 19. Weeping and night are related. For as long as there is no light there is weeping Psalm 30:5

Day and night are defined by light

In the economy of the Kingdom it is not the chronological passage of time that defines day and night. It is the presence or absence of light Genesis 1:5

Day is not a time period from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Provided there is light in the spirit it is called day, even at 12 midnight. If it is darkness for you in the spirit you are in the night, even at 12 noon

You can wake up in the morning yet in the realm of the spirit it has not been registered as morning. You can walk in broad daylight yet experience walking in darkness

There is a level of accuracy that comes into the life of the believer when you truly access light. He that has light does not stumble

"Good morning, good afternoon" is just an expression from the earth realm. In the realm of the spirit it is the degree to which you have accessed and sustained light that makes it day

Changing your night to day is not about waiting until time passes. Your access to light can automatically turn night to day

If it is not governed by time, it is possible to throw away night permanently. For as long as light remains, the phenomenon of night can never catch up with you again

Psalm 27:1

The Lord will be your everlasting light because there is no shadow and no variableness in Him. There is no fluctuation, there is consistency

When the Lord becomes your light you do not go through the weaknesses of sun and moon again. You don't oscillate between day and night, not in your life, not in your experience

That is why when men say there is a casting down, you say there is a lifting up, and you are not lying, because we operate from another kind of economy

The Lord has become your light and with it your salvation

This is a Kingdom that functions primarily by light

Jesus, the key, and light

Jesus is the only way to the Father, not one of the ways. If you enter the Kingdom through another route then it was not the Kingdom you got into John 14:6

Jesus is the door. Door means the authorized access point John 10:9

There is only one key to the Kingdom: Jesus. When you are in the Kingdom you now have access to the keys of the Kingdom

When you encounter Jesus, among the things given to you is access to the life of God, and that life is light John 1:4

You have access to Jesus who is the light, and access to the ministry of the Holy Spirit. Then the journey begins

Initial salvation only opens you up to the potential of living a victorious life. It does not necessarily mean that from that point your life becomes victorious

Excelling in the Kingdom is predicated on your access to light

What light means

From a scriptural standpoint, light means:

1. Revelation or illumination
2. The capacity to make that which is hidden manifest Ephesians 5:13

An encounter with Jesus Christ is profitable but it is not the only requirement for an excelling and victorious Christian life

Many believers have had a genuine encounter with Jesus, but the possibilities their lives command differ. Not because another eternal life was in one person or the other, but because they have not accessed light

Your personal victory in this Kingdom is released at the instance of your access to light

Converting the realities that have been finished in Christ into your experience here and now is predicated on your pursuit and your access to light

Darkened understanding

Ephesians 4:18

This is the diagnosis of why a believer in Christ cannot step into the full potential of what Jesus died for. Satan is not even mentioned. The problem is a darkened understanding

Darkened means there is absence of light. Alienated from the life of God means potentially you received that life in Christ, but in experience we do not see you functioning in it

Every time your confession, or what the Bible says should happen to you, is different from your experience, go to this scripture to find out what is wrong

I study my Bible and see that the victorious life is the believer's destiny in Christ. We have been raised with Christ, we are far above principalities, powers, thrones Ephesians 2:6, Ephesians 1:21

That can remain an empty confession with no corresponding reality in your life. Sadly this has become the experience of many believers

The side effect of seeing things in the Bible that never find expression in your life is that you will eventually be frustrated

You find believers after 10, 20 years in church who wave church goodbye and say "I'm tired of pretending, I'm tired of acting as if this thing is working"

There is nothing to fake about the faith life. Everything is a reality. With light and understanding your life becomes a demonstration

With time it becomes a message to others about the potency of what is written. At that point the Bible calls you a living epistle 2 Corinthians 3:2-3

The assignment of darkness is to cover potentials. The assignment of darkness is to stop you from stepping into the experience of spiritual realities

In the name of Jesus you are waving darkness goodbye. Darkness that kept your loved ones, darkness that has buried your destiny.

Illustration: the lost coin

Luke 15:8-10

The woman had 10 pieces of silver and lost one. The first thing she did was light a candle

The assignment of darkness is to close what is there and to stop you from experiencing the blessing that comes with it. Anointed to be a king but hiding somewhere, like David, like Gideon

That is the assignment of darkness

If the lights in a hall went off suddenly, we would not know who is who

The person you are looking for may be seated close to you, but in darkness you can sit for hours and not find him. Your phone may fall down and you cannot see it

The assignment of darkness is to hide potentials. The assignment of darkness is to make easy things look difficult. The assignment of darkness is to elongate pain

She had nine and could have left the one. She said, I will not leave that one, my joy will not be complete

Thank God for the areas where you have experienced victory, but in this conference insist that whatever is left will be settled by the light of God's word

The first thing she did was not to carry a candle but to light a candle. Carrying a candle without light is a waste of time

She knew it was somewhere in the room but could not find where

Your job is somewhere in the nation, your helper is somewhere in the city, the favor you are looking for is around your vicinity

The assignment of light is to lead you with exactitude to the place where it lies. She sought diligently till she found it

If you use light you must find. It may take time but you will find it. Then she called her friends and neighbors to rejoice with her

Dominion is governed by light

Dominion in any area of your life in this Kingdom is based on high level spiritual illumination

Whether it is manifesting the anointing of the Holy Spirit, leadership, or commanding extraordinary results, every dimension of dominion in this Kingdom is governed by light

The brighter your light, the higher your level of insight and illumination. That is the degree to which the glory of God radiates in and through your life

Genesis 1:16

There are many lights, and there are great lights. If your life is in the category of the many lights, you won't experience total defeat, but you will also not experience total victory

We need enough knowledge and high level spiritual illumination. There are things that if you knew, the level of anointing you are functioning in would change immediately. It is not luck

There are things that if you do not know, the sick cannot be healed through your hands. There are things that if you do not know, lives cannot be blessed through your hands

Trying in ignorance is a recipe for frustration

This woman would have gone round the room. That is what many of us are doing

Every time your life does not capture certain results, don't start hunting for answers yet. Go for light, not the coin

Forget about the coin and look for a candle. Forget about the job and look for light. Forget about the causes and look for light

Every time your life is not answering, you need access to light

The vision of the doors

Many years ago I had a vision that would change my life forever. I saw a giant door made up of smaller doors, opening and closing, opening and closing

Upon every small door there were scriptures written, and when they opened, light shot out of them

The Holy Ghost began to speak to me that every one of those doors represents a dimension in the spirit with a scripture connected to it

When you truly catch the light of that dimension, the grace to defend that revelation is released upon you, so that you no longer just say things you cannot defend with your life

Light is not information

There is a difference between light and information. Light is revelation and high level spiritual illumination

In today's world there is no problem with information, even spiritual information

But many of the information we have around carries no spiritual value as far as the revelation of Christ and the excelling of the believer is concerned

John 1:9 speaks of the True Light. That means there are false lights

They carry a semblance of liberty, but gauge them against the two definitions of light. They do not give you revelation and they do not make the hidden manifest

False lights are information that carries a sense of spirituality but, in the presence of real life situations, does not carry the potency to liberate

Some have come to us as cultural wise sayings, things we grew up hearing and repeat with so much conviction. An example is "one day go better"

A very innocent statement but without any power in the realm of the spirit

According to scripture nothing happens on its own. Realities are engaged. It is not for everyone that wants Matthew 7:7-8

Sufficient knowledge

It is important to have sufficient knowledge that helps us to command and establish dominion

1 Corinthians 8:2

This is a scripture that has sponsored in me a consistent hunger for deeper levels in the spirit

Apollos

Acts 18:24-25

Apollos was an eloquent man, mighty in scripture, fervent in spirit, with all his zeal and power and passion. Yet he knew only the baptism of John. It is dangerous to know only

There may be many dimensions that are required to be captured in your Christian experience for your holistic excellence

The question is not what you already know

It is what else you need to know for that ministry to rise, what else you need to know to operate at a higher level of the anointing

Praying for hundreds of sick people and celebrating only two who are healed. Thank God for it, but you can't remain at that level

You don't flog a child for limping and falling when starting to walk. But when that child is 10, 20 years old and is still crawling, that is a medical condition

There are certain dimensions you should be operating in right now. Stop comparing yourself with people who are not serious with God and finding consolation that at least you are better than them

There are realms of prayer, realms of spiritual intelligence, realms of results that your life should begin to command by now

Every hindrance that is stopping your spiritual potential and not allowing you to reveal the glory of God in this conference, it drops from your life right now.

We are never meant to remain at the same level

Luke 2:52

Jesus increased. We are never supposed to remain at the same level. Jesus, our pattern, increased

Pastor, you must increase. Businessman, you must increase. Notice the dimensions of the increase: wisdom, stature, favor with God and with man

Anything that remains at the same level is not experiencing growth and increase. It ought not to be so

Proverbs 4:18

If it is a shining light, then it shines more and more

We go up by revelation

Galatians 2:2

Paul went up by revelation. We don't go up by desire. Desire is important but it is not enough to take you up

I went up in business by revelation. I went up in ministry by revelation. I went up in influence by revelation. I gained greater capacity in the spirit by revelation

We go up by revelation. The assignment of darkness is to keep you down so that you never rise

For you to lift Jesus up you must go up yourself. You cannot leave Jesus up while you remain down

Enough is enough. You have stagnated at that level spiritually. Hoping superstitiously that one day you will rise is irresponsibility as a Christian. You must take responsibility

Take responsibility for why your prayer life is still where it is. Take responsibility for why you don't seem able to command dominion over principalities and powers

Excuses are a system of insurance for mediocrity. You must kill it

The gap and the burden to stand

Many have come with tremendous levels of hunger. For some there is a gap that has been provided because of lack of spiritual growth

There are some distances in the spirit over the destinies of others that were mandated to be met by your anointing

Because you have not stretched to grow, there are people still being victimized, and that space is caused by the lack in your capacity in the spirit

There has to be an unction from heaven that will rest upon you

For as long as Moses did not rise, Israel kept suffering in Egypt

There are destinies that have been tied. You are seeing it in your dreams, God is revealing it to you. Don't allow more people to die. Don't allow more people to backslide

The healing of someone was connected to your anointing. The direction in someone's life was connected to your prophetic gift

But because it is still at the level of infancy, God cannot introduce you to the destiny that it is connected to

Anyone whose fire has gone down, I stretch my hands, may fire from heaven rest upon you now.

Let that fire consume every laxity in the spirit.

Ezekiel 22:30

God is saying: among the family members is there no one who will donate himself to me to end this yoke of darkness and oppression? A family where for 100 years nobody has risen

You cannot stand until you have done all to stand Ephesians 6:13

I saw tongues of fire Acts 2. This is a mighty fire of revival

When this fire comes upon you it means there is a mantle crying out from your spirit. Maybe that of a revivalist, maybe that of a prophet

Everyone who has prophecy knocking at the gate of your destiny but it looks like it has not opened, receive that fire right now.

I ignite you in the name of Jesus.

That grace of the prophetess crying from within you, I quicken it right now by the spirit.

Genuine results to your Christian experience, genuine results in ministry, genuine results in business.

Matthew 5:15

As long as the lamp is not lit you can leave it where it is. But when light comes upon the lamp it cannot remain under. It must be put on the lampstand

A new dimension

Signs and wonders

One of the mantles God is restoring to the body before Jesus returns is the genuine ministry of signs and wonders

Signs and wonders is beyond falling down and rolling. We are talking of revealing Christ at a dimension that will keep nations still

Time to stop doing ministry that makes it look like you collected power from the devil. Ministry that brings shame and reproach to the name of the Lord

1 Corinthians 2:1-5

Let it be a new season for you.

I release the grace for signs and wonders.

Let it fall like the dew of Hermon. I set you on fire like the foxes of Samson in the name of Jesus Christ.

Prophetic psalmists

I am seeing a violin in the spirit. There are songs you will start singing that you did not write, songs that will come from the spirit, that usher men into dimensions of revival

By the rod of a higher priesthood, may that grace rest upon every prophetic psalmist.

I quicken your spirit, hear the sounds of the spirit.

May it come to you in the night while you sleep, may it come to you in the place of prayer.

Miriam was not a musician, but as a prophetess when this grace came upon her, she wrote the song Exodus 15:20-21

Even in heaven we are going to sing those songs. Many will write the songs that will lead the body of Christ to the next level of revival

You cannot do ministry without the potent power of the Spirit. It will only frustrate you

Let the grace of the Spirit rest upon you, that you will do ministry with results.

God is doing very serious impartations and He is lifting men to seasons of grace and seasons of power

Light is the condition for every dimension

We only arise in this Kingdom and shine to the degree to which our light comes, not the degree to which light is available

There is a light component to every dimension in the spirit John 16:12-13, John 17:17

One thing you cannot deny is the potent presence of light

The assignment of light is to make manifest. It is from the word doxazo, the flaunting, the unveiling of the glory of the King

1 Peter 2:9

If it is true that you have translated from the realm of darkness to light, there is an expectation from heaven over your life

There is a song that must be sung on account of your life. There is a message that will emanate because of the excellency of the workings of the spirit in your life

Do not rob a generation of a song that brings glory to the name of the Lord because of your refusal to rise

The message is "come up hither" Revelation 4:1

You are clapping for yourself too early and for nothing. There are higher realms, virgin dimensions in the spirit

Job 28:7-8

No matter what you have seen in the spirit, there are still virgin dimensions of power and grace

We must press with humility and hunger as though we had not even started Philippians 3:13-14

That is the attitude of men who want to host God to a superior dimension

For as long as there is one sick person who passes you and you cannot do anything about it, know that there are several realms and dimensions

We should not be discouraged, but let us be careful. We are clapping for ourselves too early. We take pride over little things

The expectation of the King over our lives is very high. The standard that has been put for a generation is very high

In the days of the generals, some of us would not even be in the ministerial positions we hold now

Look at the standard it took to work in the welfare department of the early church Acts 6:3

That for us is the requirement today for a crusade. You needed to be full of the Holy Ghost to serve food

I am seeing hepatitis B. God is healing someone right now of hepatitis B.

We declare the healing power of Jesus upon your body to crush the works of darkness.

5 dimensions of light

There are five dimensions of light every believer must access as a necessary condition for rising and excelling Isaiah 60:1

The believer must encounter five levels of light, representing knowledge and spiritual illumination, light that makes manifest

This should represent a guide and a compass in exploring spiritual things. In seeking to access light you can narrow your posture to these five areas and you will not be wrong

A random search for anything spiritual in an attempt to become a person of stature will lead you to all shades of superstition, divination and a mix of spiritual things

Just because it is spiritual does not mean it is Godly

Even Satan came from God, not as Satan but as Lucifer. Don't say all knowledge came from God so you learn everything. Just because God created it does not mean it is a blessing

Satan, the enemy of God's program, was and still remains God's creation

A random search for revelation is not profitable. This is the missing link between us and the fathers who have gone ahead

As they navigated the path of the spirit they were looking for specific things, not everything

Our spiritual experiences open us up to the realm of the spirit, and we stand a risk of falling into deception and diversion if we do not know the things we are seeking

When you start encountering light, be careful, because there are false lights John 1:9

1. The knowledge of God the Father and of Jesus His begotten Son

   This is the first dimension of light every believer must pursue if you want to rise and excel

   To be a person of stature and serve the purposes of the Kingdom in a great measure Daniel 11:32

   Not the people who desire greatness. The exploits of the believer in this Kingdom are connected to his knowing God

   The word knowing does not just mean awareness of His existence. It is a deeper level of relationship

   Illustration: the herbalist

   When you go to a herbalist you don't need a relationship. You don't ask his name, you don't ask if he has a wife and children. All you need is to tell him your problem

   "I'm looking for a political position." He will calculate from the spirit. You bring one goat, one cow, maybe a human being, and add some money

   Money does not go into the realm of the spirit. Money doesn't have blood, but they still ask for it as honorarium

   You provide the requirement and leave. You don't even need to know his name

   When you come to God stretching your hand, He will shift your hand and come to your heart. He wants a relationship first before the issue of gifts

   Your excelling in this Kingdom, even your conviction, is predicated upon the depth of your knowledge of God John 17:3

   Not just confessing in front of an altar. The manifestation of the potential of eternal life is at the instance of knowing the true God and Jesus whom He sent

   There are many people who have not paid the price and are not interested in paying the price to know God. It truly takes time to know God

   If you reduce most of the things you are pursuing and focus on knowing God, there are many things you would not have to look for again

   In the knowledge of God are many advantages put together

   Man of God, rather than looking for a venue, settle down to know God first

   It is powerful when men know God. Moses could not stand before Pharaoh if he did not know the One who sent him Exodus 3:13-14

   Moses was not ready to embarrass himself and mark his destiny down. He asked who he should tell Pharaoh had sent him

   It is not English that will make Pharaoh let God's people go. It is an encounter with the God of the Bible

   The School Of Prayer (how Prayers Are Answered)

   by Apostle Joshua Selman

   arrow_forward

   Many people who are being mightily used by God across the globe today did not start with the ambition of fame. It was a blind pursuit to know Him

   Paul had the potential to write two-thirds of the New Testament, yet his desire was that I may know Him Philippians 3:10

   In this generation our quest for fame has overtaken our love and passion for God. We do not desire to know Him as much as we want to be known

   We desire to be called names

   Nothing wrong with those things, but if anything overtakes your passion to know God, you are already at the corridors of compromise

   More than knowing sermons, more than knowing the names of men of God and their titles and their credentials, more than knowing the address of a church: that I may know You

   Ask those who know the president. Who told you there is no advantage in knowing a man? Most of us are limited because we do not have access

   Show me a man who has access to the heart of a man and I show you a man who can get things at the instance of his desire

   God has things in store not just for Christians but for them that love Him 1 Corinthians 2:9. There is no genuine love without seeking

   There were days when people shut themselves in for three days and their prayer was, Lord I just want to know You. Now the prayer is, Lord I'm tired of shame

   That is sincere, but it is in the knowledge of Him that certain things go

   There are many people who did not have to pray certain prayers when they found Him. When you find Him like a treasure that has been missing, you find yourself too

   There is no end to this pursuit, not even your arrival in heaven, because even in heaven we will still be learning God

2. The knowledge of yourself in light of who Christ is

   When you start looking for yourself without finding Him, you will find the wrong you. There are many versions of you and some of them are not needed

   There is a version of you that reflects Christ. That is the one you should be looking for

   Paul describes two dimensions existing in one man Romans 7:15-24

   You need to find God first before you start looking for you. When you find Him you will know which you you are looking for

   You must know who you are in light of who Christ is. Please do not trivialize this

   The challenges in life will not ask you where you are coming from. They will ask, whose son are you? That was the question Saul asked when David dared to fight Goliath 1 Samuel 17:55

   Where did you muster this courage to stand before this beast that has even threatened the warriors of Israel?

   Most people will tell you that they know who they are. It is not men who will ask you who you are. It is situations and circumstances that will ask you

   Psalm 49:20

   A man who has been exalted with the potential of honor and grace but does not understand it will die like a beast in the field

   Illustration: the prodigal son

   Luke 15:11-24

   Born into royalty, under the watch of his father he would never know lack. Now he had reduced himself to a point where he was feeding with swine

   It was a prophetic adumbration of the believer's tragedy. Born from royalty, but your current state can be depletion to a point that you are feeding with the swine

   Even in his depressed position he still recognized the glory of his father. He said, I will arise and go back to my father

   He got up and did what he said he would do. As soon as the father saw him, royalty was restored in that instant and a celebration began

   The reason many keep fighting unnecessary battles is that they have listened to what everybody has said you are, but have not found out what God has said they are

   They have told you people who come from your place look like this

   Nathanael's remark about Nazareth John 1:46 was not a lie, except that Jesus was the Son of God, and He that comes from above is above all John 3:31

   You need to know who you are. This is not a Pentecostal lecture, this is a light requirement for an excelling destiny

   When you know who you are then you know what must be under your feet

   Illustration: children of rich men

   There are stubborn children of rich men in this country and across Africa

   They are wise enough to know that their parents are wealthy, and even in the midst of their stubbornness you will just manage them

   These are stubborn children of kings, not to talk of children of the King of kings

   The knowledge of who you are in Christ does not produce pride, it produces confidence

   I wish the confession of walking in power, walking in miracles and living a life of favor would transit from being a song to a revelation

   Then you walk upon the earth with dignity and honor

   Because you did not take the time to know God, you don't even know what you look like 1 John 3:1-2

   It does not yet appear what we shall be. I am evolving experientially

   A little chick becoming the mother hen does not have all the qualities yet but they are there. Watch the metamorphosis of an insect from the egg, the larva, the pupa

   It does not look like it but a transformation is happening

   Many are looking like social media, like some ignorant person who does not respect the program of God

   You must realize that the price for who you are is the blood of Jesus. If that sounds cheap to you then allow anybody to look down on you

   Jesus died and shed His blood. That was a price that purchased you. Any other thing that downplays you, you can shrug away

   Ephesians 2:2-3

   Your conversation, your speaking, is a very potent revelation of where you are

   Isaiah 8:20

   There is a way those who carry light speak. If certain people speak in a certain way you don't need to feel bad. They are only revealing the bankruptcy of light

   It may not be that they are bad. There are things you should not waste your time on

   Before you get into any spiritual discussion, verify that the person you are speaking to has light within him. Otherwise you will be speaking from two different dimensions

   When an uncle looks at you and says you're a failure, don't feel bad and say God punish you. Verify if that guy is speaking because there is no light in him

   Love him with compassion and pray that the mercy of God speaks for him

   As far as your confidence is concerned, surround it with the word of God like chariots behind the king Hebrews 10:35

   Man of God, who has lied to you that you cannot rise and excel in ministry? The difference between you and everybody you admire is light and access to the help of the Spirit

   If you submit yourself to light there is no height you cannot attain. Excelling is not an exclusive preserve for a few Romans 10:12

   Go back and take the time to immerse yourself in the revelation of who you are in Christ. Don't carry religiosity

   Settle down like a child of God: what does the word of God say I am in Christ?

   Do not think that revelation is basic. That is why many proud people still remain weak. They act bold but the results that follow boldness are not there

   If I call a man a woman, will he cry or pray about it? No, because he has been a man all his life. Revelations have concretized

   If it was somebody like Elijah, Nathanael would have been dealt with first and an apology demanded. Not Jesus. He was secure enough to understand the limitation of the man speaking

   Too many are fighting unnecessary battles. Those battles are a report card that many holes have been punctured in your sense of self-confidence

   I'm not talking about pride, going around looking for trouble and harassing people emotionally. I'm talking about a subtle sense of confidence

   You have heard me say: if God wants to bless 10 people, I will start praying for the remaining nine, because one slot is taken already. What do you believe about yourself?

   You are trying to use a new car, a new house, a new shoe to show you are successful. Those burdens are unnecessary

   Every time the yoke is killing you, it is not God's own Matthew 11:30. Social media can give you a yoke God did not give you

   You put yourself in trouble yoking yourself with unnecessary things when God is already calling you a champion

   The status quo is the mindset of mediocre people speaking based on the darkness within them. It is not for you to fight people

   I'm not teaching you to harass people, but giving you confidence to sleep sound even in one room

   Your position of honor, there is no physical house that can host that glory. If Christ came to live in you, it is not by translocating from one place to the other

   Thank God for the physical expressions. If you must wear a designer watch to feel good about yourself, then go and read the Bible. Something is wrong with your orientation

   Thank God for increase, but these are only additions

   Even when a crown of thorns was put on His head, Jesus did not refuse the fact that He was King. He didn't need a golden crown to accept He was a king

   I may trek to my house, but while I am going I am speaking with honor and dignity.

   In the name of Jesus there are generations connected to me, and with honor I will walk through the law of time and process.

   No living a fake life, snapping near someone's car and putting it online, telling lies

   Man of God, do not be ashamed to celebrate the five members you have. Don't go around telling lies that you have three thousand

   Every one of those five people is what the blood of Jesus bought. Mentor them with all you have

   Let God see you pray for them, shout and teach them like you would teach on a crusade ground

   The God who increases will come to mark your script and measure a thousand cubits for you

   Insecurity is largely a spiritual problem first before a psychological problem. It is wounded people who wound others

   If you are wounded and you do not allow the word of God to heal you, you will only find joy when others are frowned upon

   For as long as they are laughing it affects your state and reminds you that you are a failure

   Secure people always long for the joy of everybody around them

   You are the beloved, an heir of God and a joint heir with Christ Romans 8:17. Very simple statements

   Fathers like Papa Hagin, T.L. Osborn, R.W. Schambach understood this with a depth of revelation

   It was this kind of revelation that sponsored the audacity of men like John G. Lake, who would hold in their hands viruses that were killing people

   They knew by revelation that He that comes from above is above all John 3:31

   For us we just confess it without staying to receive it as a revelation

3. Your place in God's program

   To rise structurally and represent the purposes of God you must know your place in God's divine program

   You must find your destiny, the role you have to play in God's global apostolic and prophetic program

   There is a role and a place for everyone

   Many people today are doing assignments they did not start with, because those who were supposed to occupy that space were lazy

   God had to transfer their bishopric and add it to others so that there will be no slack Acts 1:20

   Your relevance, your value, even your reward is connected to your ability to find your place

   Luke 4:16-17

   There is a place where it is written concerning you. It takes the Spirit to journey with you to find it

   When you find it you have found the basis for your relevance. You have found the reason why you should not die young

   The secret is to open the book. You will never find where it is written until you have the stamina to open the book

   When He found it He began to quote it, and declared it fulfilled Luke 4:21

   Hebrews 10:7

   In this book there is a place where the prophecy of your destiny is written. You will stumble across it and you will know it was you God was speaking to

   No other person came and claimed what was written about Jesus. We can claim it now because we are in Him, but nobody else came as a fulfillment of it

   You can study your scripture and find where it was written concerning you Zechariah 1:17

   God will speak to you and say that is a capture of your mandate: you are supposed to provide the financial resources that will fund the end time revival

   Your diligence over money now does not come from a carnal standpoint, just acquiring for mundane things. That is the testimony of the rich fool Luke 12:16-21

   Now you know you are pursuing resources to fund God's program, because you have found out where it was written concerning you

   You have read many books. Please open the book. Every other person who wrote every other book did not have any accreditation from God

   If you are Jeremiah you will find it in Jeremiah 1:5-7

   Jeremiah the young boy said, I am a child. God rebuked him. Then the rod of an almond tree Jeremiah 1:11-12

   We are gathered celebrating what God is doing in the lives of people connecting across the world, because a man found where it was written

   Do not play with the light you find. Israel is at the mercy of the light sent to Jacob Isaiah 9:8

   He sent a word to His servant, and everyone who has come here is a beneficiary and a partaker

   Only God knows what you are robbing us of by not finding your place. Maybe something you have discovered would have made our ministry efficient

   Do you know how many souls have been won through the correct management of social media platforms? Imagine the person who discovered the printing machine. He did not know what he was discovering

   When we get to heaven the crowns of so many people will surprise us, because they utilized what God gave them, provided it contributed to the revelation of Jesus. There must be a reward

Light and sight

Ephesians 3:3-5, Ephesians 3:8-10

Why was it revealed? God wants all men to see. How many men can see? It depends on the grace that comes on them

For you to reveal the manifold wisdom of God you must see, and for you to see you must obtain the grace that makes all men see

Sight is a product of vision and light, not vision alone. Your eyes can be open, but if there is no light you will not see

In pitch darkness the one who has eyes and the one who is blind will have the same experience

It takes a union of light and sight for it to be said that you have seen

Most of us have eyes but the light component has not come. This is why this conference has been designed

• Lord, we contend for greater dimensions of light
• We are ready to arise from the depression and the prostration that circumstances have kept us in. We are ready to rise to a new light
• I will not let You go. Bring a blessing that turns my night to day
• Send the light, O God. Send the light to my spirit, send the light to my finances, send the light to my ministry
• High level spiritual illumination, take away my night, take away the darkness that comes with it, grant me ascendance in the spirit in the name of Jesus Christ

Isaiah 9:2, John 1:5, Genesis 32:26-30

Now that revelation has come, I prophesy to you: go up, rise to a higher spiritual pedestal.

Arise where you have been sitting, because the word of God has come with the spirit component of this revelation.

May it pick you from your lowly estate and elevate you in the name of Jesus Christ.

Everything that comes alongside darkness that is represented in your life, I stand in the name of Jesus by the power that raised Christ from the dead.

Whether it is failure, circles of pain, closed doors, all kinds of demonic things, I speak to your life.

Galatians 2:2

Light comes by the speaking of God

The true source of light is the speakings of God. The first manifestation of light in the Bible is "and God said" Genesis 1:3

The only way light comes is from what God says. If you cannot find what God says, light cannot come

Light did not just manufacture itself. It is the word of God that brings the light of God

I speak as touching the voice of God over your life: every area of darkness, I prophesy that light appears now.

The same way darkness has no power to stop light, I decree and declare

May the light that has come upon you run faster than you to create your miracles in the name of Jesus Christ.

The season of shame and reproach, the season of tragedy and pain, the season of men asking where is your God: the light that comes upon your life now, let it produce potent results.

Come to the light

John 9:5

Some were sent by God for more than an invitation to this conference, here inside, in the overflow outside, and following online

The Spirit of God has convicted them that they have not even passed through the door

You can stand outside a man's house and get a bit of illumination to see, but the man can give you an invitation to enter where you can sit down with honor and have light

When the Shunammite woman prepared a room for Elisha, they put a table and they put light for him to have unlimited access 2 Kings 4:10

There is greater light when you are in the fold

The business of coming to Jesus is not just a church thing. The only basis for true light in this life, and even afterwards, is Jesus

A man of God cannot give you new life on his own. He can only lead you John 1:6-8

The only reason we emanate that light is because we carry within us the True Light Himself

There are two calls in one. There are those who say, I have come to the end of my life, I confess that I need Jesus sincerely

I have been around the things of Jesus but I want to make a genuine, sincere decision

There are those who say, I cannot even say if I am a Christian right now because my life has gone haywire

I speak to you like the prodigal son: the father did not come into the son's mess. He had to take responsibility to leave that place and start moving James 4:8

You must indicate interest in the things of God. The things of the Kingdom do not require force. Nobody makes it a compulsion

One day when this life is over it is only those who have paid the price and shown interest in receiving that light who will have eternal redemption

• Lord Jesus, I acknowledge You as the True Light
• I receive You into my heart as my Savior, as my Lord and as my King
• I declare that the power of sin, hell and the grave is broken over my life from now and forever
• I am a child of God
• I receive the gift of righteousness
• I receive the abundance of grace and I declare that I reign in life

Father, thank You for these ones. They have come declaring Your lordship over their lives.

Based on the authority of scripture I declare your sins forgiven in the name of Jesus.

I call you bona fide recipients of the life of God.

I commend you to the word of God and to the ministry of the Spirit, that you will be grounded and established in righteousness.

I declare that the power of sin, Satan, hell and the grave is broken over your life. Receive grace to live the victorious Christian life in Jesus' mighty name.

John 6:37
