Hallelujah. Someone celebrate the Lord. Celebrate the chain breaker. Go ahead, celebrate him. Give him thanks. Lift up your hands and give him thanks this morning. Go ahead and let him hear your voice. Let him hear your voice. Thank him from your heart. Give him all the praise. Someone let your voice be heard. Let your voice be heard. Every chain over your life and your destiny is shattered, is broken already. The chains are falling. The chains are broken.
The predator is becoming the prey. The owner of the snares will be taken by the snares in the precious name of Jesus Christ. This service is tagged enough is enough? The God’s servant, the Bishop said, “What you don't want, you don't what? You don't watch it.” Something will happen for you; something you'll remember for life in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Lift up your voice and ask the Lord, father, touch me in this service. Let it not be ordinary for me. Let it not be ordinary. Let me feel your touch. Let it be an encounter indeed for me in the precious name of Jesus. Let me not return the same way I came. Touch me by the power of your word and by the power of the communion table in the precious name of Jesus. Thank you and thank you mighty God. Blessed be your name forever in Jesus precious name we have prayed, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.
Father, this morning, we are grateful to you. Thank you for removing chains from off our feet. Thank you for helping us to gain speed. Thank you for declaring enough is enough verdicts on our behalf and thank you for letting us go free. Lord, this hour, speak to us yet again. Satisfy every worshipper in this service. Let no one return without a touch. Pass no one by in the name of Jesus. We ask Lord God that chains be broken. We ask Lord God that mountains be moved. We ask that sicknesses be healed. Let the oppressed be set free in the name of Jesus. At the end, let your name be glorified. All of you none of me reach each one of us and satisfy each one. Thank you Father, for in Jesus precious name we have pray. In Jesus mighty name we have pray. Someone who expect a definite touch, shout the loudest amen. You are confident you are living this service; you are your own testimony, let your amen be the loudest. Go ahead; give the Lord the biggest clap of praise. Make that clap louder for Jesus. Louder yet for Jesus and give him a shout of your own victory, your own victory, a shout of your victory. Hallelujah. Glory to God.
Please get seated in the presence of God. And if you can, help me welcome someone to your right, to your left. Welcome to church. Tell that person, enough is enough. Glory to God. That verdict will come to pass for you and I in the name of Jesus Christ. Praise God, 2025 is my new era year. Congratulations. Amen and amen. Welcome to church. It's a great place to be this morning. Glory to God. Wherever you are coming from, you welcome. This is your father's house and he has prepared something special for you. Glory to God. There's good in the house of God. I said there's good in the house and you'll be satisfied with that good. Whatever your expectation, just make sure you have expectation. Glory to God. Proverb 23:18 is the expectation of the righteous that shall not be cut off. What if the righteous has no expectation? So put your expectation in place. Glory to God. You know we said, coming to this service, bring your enough is enough list. I'm sure you have yours, so keep it handy. In the course of the service, we pray with that and they'll become testimony lists in the name of Jesus Christ.
PROPHETIC FOCUS
Prophet focus for the month is, Wisdom is Better than Weapons of War. Can we say it together? Say it louder. Wisdom is Better than Weapons of War. Glory to God. And the anchor text is Proverbs 21:22.
UNVEILING THE EVER-WINNING WEAPON OF WISDOM
Our teaching series for our Sunday services this month, beginning from today is, Unveiling the Ever-winning Weapon of Wisdom, Unveiling the Ever-winning Weapon of Wisdom. And our text is from Ecclesiastes 9:18, it said, “Wisdom is better than weapons of war; but one sinner destroyeth much good.” Wisdom is better than weapons of war. Now, I said during the week of emphasis that just passed that ammunition without strategy will result in tragedy. You are armed to the teeth, yet your back can be on the floor flat with arms and legs raised up. You know, that’s total defeat. When your back is on the floor and legs and arms are in the air, total defeat. You'll not be defeated in the precious name of Jesus Christ. God does not lose battles. As his children, why should we lose battles? Glory to God. There is no fight. God is in engaged in where he loses. He can't lose. Who has his might? Who can contest with him? So, why should his children be defeated? Somebody said, I won't be defeated. Say it louder, I cannot be defeated. Glory to God.
But you see, to fight, there’s need for training. There's need for knowhow. If you get given a gun and you're not trained to use the gun is a danger to yourself and to everyone around you. True or false? You need training. The man who is not trained with a very sophisticated gun and is given the gun can be defeated by someone carrying a machete. Why? Before he knows where the trigger is, the machete has landed. That's not your story in the name of Jesus Christ. So God trains our hands to war. He trains our fingers to fight. Meaning that we are all fighters. Hear this; the world is a jungle of wild beast. You don't need to offend to be a target. You don't need to offend to be a target. That you're doing well is enough offense. Psalm 18:34, 35. He says, "He teacheth my hands to war." Say it to yourself. Come alive, come alive. Say it louder. “He teacheth my hands to war, so that what? A bow of steel is broken by my arms.” Wow. A ball of steel, no matter how strong, you break it by your hands. Why? God taught you how to fight. So, this month, you will know how to fight and this month you’ll win. I said, “You’ll win this month in the precious name of Jesus Christ.” So, it is a risk to arm an untrained man, big risk. The Bible tells us that Abraham armed his trained servants. Genesis 14:14, he armed his trained servant, took them on a battle and he returned with victory. Trained servant, Genesis 14:14, 15-19.
So spiritual warfare begins with being strong in the Lord. Ephesians 6:10, he said, “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might.” Then he said in verse 11, he said, “Put on the whole armor of God, and that he may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” You need strength to even put on the armor. Do you agree with that? Some of you have been in the military here. You see that thing that the US military they carry is heavy. It's heavy. Some guns are very heavy. You need strength to even carry some guns. Some of you have been in the military; you know what I'm talking about. So the military is not a place for the weakling, those who are weakling, you need strength. Be strong in the Lord. And then, before you put on the whole amour. Glory to God. This month, someone is receiving strength. I said this month, you’re receiving spiritual strength. This month, you're receiving physical strength in the name of Jesus Christ. So we're prepared for battle behind the scenes before we emerge conquerors in the open. We're prepared for battle behind the scenes. The trainings are not done in the open. The drills are not in the open; they're in the secret. Glory to God. Galatians 1:11, 12 and Galatians 2:1-8. Proverb 24:10, he said, “If thou faint in the day of adversity, it says thy strength is small.” It's not because your position is strong. Your own strength is small. It's not because the devil is stronger, is the same. He hasn't gotten more power. It is the one we give to him that he uses. Glory to God. Ecclesiastes 9:18, it says that wisdom is better than weapons of war. He said that but one sinner, one sinner, one evil, destroyeth much good. That will not be your story in the precious name of Jesus Christ.
Now, the US fought a war that has gone down in history negatively and is the US Vietnam war. Many of us have read about it. Now, in terms of military might, now and back in those days, you can't compare those two nations. You can’t compare the US with Vietnam. But you know, it's widely known that the US lost that war. Do you agree with that? For those who have read about it. Military might, the US was far, far superior. Financial power, you can't compare. Technology wise, US was far, far ahead. But you see, the Vietnamese had a strategy. They had wisdom. They had a strategy. They watched, they said, “This is our terrain. We understand our terrain. These visitors, they're coming to meet us here. Let's strategize. They're too strong for us, so we avoid them.” They avoided the Americans. So America was fighting an invisible opponent, an invisible enemy. They'll be running, running here, hiding, attack and hide, attack and run. Guerilla warfare.
The US was frustrated, fought a war for 20-years. How many years? Twenty years. Spend over a hundred billion US dollars as at that time. The say in today’s money is more than one trillion, in today’s money and yet lost. That's why we say that wisdom is better than weapons of war. Am I saying US is not wise? No, I'm not saying so. But Vietnamese in that matter, in that world, they were wiser. Yes, they had severe casualties, but you would've thought the US would just overrun the place. What was the target? Stop them from taking South Vietnam and pursuing their communist agenda. Did they succeed? No. They call it Saigon, the capital of South Vietnam fell. And today, the rest they say is history. It became one lesson, a global lesson in the limit of military power when wisdom and strategy is engaged. So, don't always go. He said, “For by strength shall no man prevail.” Take your time, stoop low, and calculate. This month is your month where you calculate and you take a flight. Let God hear a loudest amen.
The story about that war is not very palatable; US lost over 58,000 soldiers, over 58,000; more than 150,000 were injured, many of those severely, very severely. About 600 prisoners of war, that is they captured Americans. You know, it's not easy to capture Americans; so they captured American soldier, over 600; more than about 500 were released back to America. Wisdom is better than what? So, when you find someone who is teaching you wisdom, listen. If you find someone giving you weapons, you may tell the person, keep that thing until I learn how to use it. Glory to God. Now, that's the story of David. David had not proven. He said "So I have not tested these weapons." Saul said "Take them, you need them to fight that man, to fight that beast that giant." The Bible said, “He wore it; he could not even move, he fell.” Let me use the ones I have proven. Glory to God. That's wisdom. Let me use what I have tested. He said that I kept my father's sheep and the lion and the bear came, I fought them and I defeated them. I was not wearing armor. Glory to God. That's the story of David.
I Samuel 17:40-50. Now in verse 42, the Bible said, “When the Philistine looked about and saw David, he disdained him for he was a youth and ruddy, and of a fair countenance.” You don't need fair countenance, you don't need fine people. You need rugged looking people in the military, in the war front. Glory to God. Verse 43 says, “And Philistine said unto David, Am I a dog that thou comest to me with staves? And the Philistine cursed David by his God.” That is, he saying, where is your weapon? You're coming with starve, with rope, what do you call…? Sling and stone. Am I a dog? Let me say this. David was wise enough to know that I don't stand a chance against this giant, but there's one who can push him down and his name is Jehovah. So the battle was not between David and Goliath. It was between Goliath and God. The God of the armies of Israel. Glory to God. He said, “You come to me with your sword and your spares. I come to you in what? In the name, in the name. …” So if David was defeated, God is defeated. I come to you in the name. Glory to God. If someone comes to you in the name of the president of the United, you better check whether he's telling the truth. Say, the US president said, and you say, I don't care, because you're looking at him that he doesn't look like someone that will be talking to the President. You better check. Glory to God.
In the name of the Lord God, of the armies of Israel. You know, the Bible calls him the Lord of the angel’s armies. That's what David was talking about. The Lord of hosts. Glory to God. I like the testimony in verse 49. 1 Samuel 17:49 said, “And David put his hand in his bag and took thence a stone.” Please someone fix this light. Thank you. Please get the light stable. “He put his hand in his bag and took thence a and slang it and smote the Philistine in the forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead and he fell upon his face to the earth.” That's how your enemies are falling. How did he fall? Face down. That's a bad way to fall. Not like this, falling by the face, crashing the face and the mouth. Look at verse 50. I rejoice whenever I read it. It says, “So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone and smote the Philistine and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David.” In other words, there was no weapon with David, but he had wisdom. Glory to God. He went ahead and used the giant sword. You know, giant neck requires giant sword. If it was his own sword, it might probably be very hard to cut off the head. He use Goliath's sword to Goliath's head. Your enemies will fall on their own sword. I said, your own enemies will fall on their own sword in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Military training may be rigorous, but you see, so also is the training for spiritual warfare. They say pray, is not very nice; it’s labor but that's where victory lies. Study the word of God. It doesn't sound good. Many don'ts, once you start to study for some your mind start to drift. You remember 1001 thing that you have not done. Before long, you discover you've abandoned what you're supposed to study. II Timothy 2:3 says, "Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus. Endure hardness, put on strength, make the sacrifice, and pay the price." Glory to God. Unveiling the ever-winning weapon of wisdom, this is part one, part one.
Now, it behooves us to find out what then is wisdom? What is wisdom? Because if we say wisdom is a weapon that gives us victory. So what is wisdom. Let's try to unravel that in maybe two of the definitions. Now from scriptures, wisdom is all about putting God's word to work, putting God's word to work.” Matthew 7:24 says "Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine and doeth them," that's key. And doeth them; not and shareth them. Not and teacheth them. “And doeth them, he said "I will liken him unto a wise man." What kind of man? Church, I can’t hear you. What kind of man? A wise man that built his house upon a rock.” Your house won't crumble. Your destiny will not crash in the precious name of Jesus Christ. So, wisdom is not just claiming things. I claim, I possess, I release. I claim it, it is sealed. No. What are you doing to show you have claimed it? So, wisdom of God, the wisdom of God is the ever winning weapon in the battle of life.
What is Wisdom?
Wisdom is acting on the instructions of scripture concerning victory over the battles of our lives. Acting on instruction, Deuteronomy 28:1. Acting on instruction. If they obey, if you obey, if you will hearken unto the voice of the Lord. If you do it. If you observe to do what he says then the victory is cheap; the Lord will set you on high above all nations of the Earth. Glory to God.
Acting on instructions. Now when God is ready to change a man's level, when God wants to give a man victory, what he gives is instructions. This is what to do. This is how to go. These are the steps to take. As you take those steps, you see the victory. Glory to God. He said in Deuteronomy 28:7, he said, “The Lord shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face.” I thought, I'm talking to someone here. He said, “They shall come against thee one way and flee, how many ways? Seven ways. You know, I said some time ago that they'll go seven ways because one way will not be enough. They'll be in so much in hurry. So much hurry that one way will not be enough. Glory to God.
Back in the days, please turn the light back on. Glory to God. Let's check what's going on please. One day, we were in a place, in a gathering and suddenly something happened. There was chaos. Everyone was headed to the door. The door was this size and everyone wanted to step out at the same time. No one was going out. The door was not enough. Too many people, one small door because there was chaos. So a marked gunman came into the facility; everyone headed to that door. I reverse because I know no one is going to pass through this door. Everyone is, some were falling; they were trampling under them; that's how your enemies will be trying to flee. But you see, the good news is, they won't even escape. I said your enemies won't escape. Glory to God.
THREE MAIN WAYS TO ACCESS OUR WAYS TO GO ABOUT OUR BATTLE.
Now, take note that access on our way to go about our battle is secured in three main ways. You want to gain access to victory on your battles; three main ways.
- Through prayers.
- Study of the word.
- Meditation on the word.
Through prayers, study of the word and meditation on the word of God. James 1:5-8. You know he says in verse 5, he said, “If any one of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God.” Let him ask. Wisdom is from God. If you are talking about divine wisdom, not devilish wisdom right? Not devilish wisdom that oppresses people. A devil uses wisdom. They can program people, maybe in the Caribbean or in Africa, they make an effigy of someone and then they begin to pull the person, twist the person’s leg and the person physically here in the US, leg is getting pains. That's devilish wisdom. That's not the kind. And the solution to devilish wisdom is divine wisdom. Intellectual wisdom cannot handle devilish wisdom. Glory to God. You can be a professor of spiritisim or whatever. He studied spirits in school. He's a professor and the devil is messing with his life and destiny. The solution to all of the wild, the plots and the plans of Satan is divine wisdom. Glory to God. He said in verse 6, James 1:6 say "But let him ask in faith and nothing wavering. He that wavereth is like a wave of the sea is driven and is tossed everywhere.” None of us will be tossed in the precious name of Jesus Christ."
Study of the word
II Timothy 4:13, Paul speaking. He said, “The cloke that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, bring with thee and the books but especially my notes, bring those notes.” Glory to God. Now, following the dictates of scriptures, believing is key to winning the battles of life. You want to win the battle, follow what the Bible says; not what your friends are suggesting ; not what people are telling you. You know, there are many who rather believe men than believe God, many. They believe their friends over what God instructs. The final authority in your life and in your destiny should be God's word; not your friends. If your parents tell you to go against the word of God, they have erred. They have gone astray. You must follow the word of God. If they are asking you to go contrary to the word of God including your pastor, if your pastor is telling you to go contrary to the word of God, he has deviated; that's the truth. God's word is your final authority. John 2:5, the Bible said "His mother saith unto them whatsoever he tells you to do, do it." The Bible said, “When they did it, they unlocked the first miracle, when Jesus himself said, “It was not yet time.” Glory to God. In John 9, Jesus told the blind man; he said "Go to the pool called Siloam and wash." The Bible said, “He went, he washed, he came what? Seeing.” He returned seeing, verse 7, John 9:7, “He went, he washed, he returned seeing; no more blindness.” Glory to God.
Now, let me say this, there's good news for you. I said there's good news for someone. So, whilst we are called to fight; I can say this as the redeemed, we are already victorious. So, you are fighting a battle that you will win. Someone didn't hear what I said. You are fighting a winning battle. You know, there are situation, they tell someone they say you are fighting a losing battle; meaning, there's no way; no permutation through which you can win but in this case, you are fighting a winning battle. That is, you're already victorious. Glory to God. You know, the Bible speaking, he said in Deuteronomy 2:24, he said "Rise ye up, take your journey and pass over the river Anon. Behold, I have given into thy hand." Somebody say "Into my hand." He said "Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon and his land, do what?" Begin to possess it. Glory to God. Begin to take it. Begin, how? Contend with him in battle. It sounds like a paradox. I've already given you so why should I need to fight? That's how God works, go and fight. He told the children of Israel, you need not fight in this battle, right? But Jehoshaphat knows how God operates. He didn't tell them, so go let's go to our houses and sleep. He said "No, set everyone in battle array. Go to the field. Instead of fighting them, let's begin to sing." That's another weapon. Glory to God. And they return victorious. You will win. I said, you will win. Whatever the enemy is using as his weapon, you will win in the name of Jesus Christ.
EXAMPLES OF PEOPLE WHO USES WISDOM TO CONQUER THEIR BATTLE
Now, quickly let's look at examples of people who engage the weapon of wisdom to conquer their battles
1. Moses
Moses, he possessed the spirit of wisdom and followed divine directives all through to win his battles, Deuteronomy 34:9, it said "And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom." Watch this. He said "For Moses had laid his hands upon him and the children of Israel he hearkened unto him." Moses laid his hands upon Joshua and transferred the spirit of wisdom upon him to have the same. Glory to God. Now, he discovered from scripture that Moses was simply a product of instructions. We said, “Wisdom is hearing instruction and doing it. Getting directions and doing it. Hearkening to the voice of God, what he’s saying.” Moses, the Bible said "And the Lord said unto Moses and the Lord Spake unto Moses," you see all through Exodus, from Exodus 6:1 "And the Lord said unto Moses.” Exodus 7:1, “The Lord Spake unto Moses." Exodus 8, all of those chapters begin, “The Lord said unto Moses. The Lord Spake unto Moses the Lord Spake unto Moses. Glory to God. So Moses was just acting on the word of God; what God said per time, he did. He became a superstar, a god to Pharaoh; everyone feared him. So, if you will heed God instruction, that's how men will fear you. Glory to God. I pray for you, no more deaf ear to God, and no more stoppage of your ears in the name of Jesus.
2. Gideon
Gideon, call him the one man general of Israel. He had an army, very strong; 32,000 strong. That looked good enough but God said "No these are too many, you don't need all of these." He said to him, he said "You deliver Israel as what? As one man." So, it’s possible to for Gideon to have stood alone and still win the battle. Glory to God. I think God just gave him 300 to help his faith so that he doesn’t run back; when he sees the people, he’ll say I’m the only one. No, he gave him 300 and they won. So it's not the number, it's your backing. I said, it's not the number, it's your backing. Glory to God. You know, someone sang a song, He said, “I got backing.” God the Father, God the Son God, the Holy Ghost, all of them plus angels. I have backing. Somebody say I have backing. Say it louder, I got backing. Glory to God. Judges 6: 1-15 and Judges 7: 1-5. He said to him in verse 2 of Judges 7, he said, “And the Lord unto Gideon, the people that are with thee are too many for me to give the Midianite into their hands.” They'll think that it's their number. There are some here, God is telling you, the job I want to give to you right now, the things you are doing, don't count. That is, you are not measuring up to it. How? Because you're thinking that it is your qualification. Until your mind, your thought pattern leaves qualification, you won't get it. So you know, it's not your qualification. Glory to God. For some it's connection. I know this person, I know that person and nothing is working. With all of the connection, you're still disconnected. Why don't you disconnect from those people and connect to God? Hear this. If you know God, you know everyone. Because as far as I'm concerned, my Bible tells me that the heart of every king is where? In his hands. And he turneth whethersoever he wills. He can turn it in your direction. I see God turn someone's heart in your direction. Don't run after people. Don't run after people. Some of us find that so hard. You run after people because you think that your help is in those people. No. When God touches their heart, they can't help it. Glory to God.
3. David
The next person we're looking at is David. David, the one man army of Israel. David will stand alone. You saw, we just read how he confronted Goliath alone. But of course, he knows he's not alone because one with God is what? Majority. “I come to you in the name of the Lord.” Glory to God. Psalm 81:10-14, He said, “I'm the Lord thy God, which brought thee out the land of Egypt; open thy mouth wide and I'll fill it.” He said there in verse 11, he said, “But my people will not hearken onto my voice. “ He said, “Israel will none of me.” He says, “So, I give them up onto their own heart’s lust and they walk in their own counsels.” Verse 13, “Oh that my people had hearkened unto me and Israel had walked in my ways.” He said in verse 14, “I should soon have what? Subdued their enemies and turned my hand against their adversaries. If they had hearkened, they're not listening. They're still doing things their own way. They're following the dictates of men. They say, “This is how it’s done in Atlanta, do it this way. It's the Atlanta way; you must succumb.” Change the figures like they change it, everyone else. And then God said, “So what's the difference between you and them?” Stand your ground. Tell someone, stand your ground. Glory to God.
4. Daniel
Daniel, the war- winning patriarch. In spite of the conspiracy, Daniel stood alone and we saw how he had his testimony. Daniel 6:22, “Oh king, my God has sent his angel and had shut the lion's mouth that they have not hurt me. For as much as before him innocence was found in me and also before thee, oh king, have I done no hurt.” So, God sent his angels, shut the… let me say this, lift up your right hand. Every conspiracy against you, every gang up against you, every gang up against your destiny; against you and your household, I declare their mouth shut in the name of Jesus. You know Titus 1:10,11, it says that there be many unruly brethren.” He said, “Whose mouth must be what? Must be stopped.” They subvert whole houses. They teach things which they ought not to think of, for filthy locker sake. Glory to God. And you see, when God stops the mouth… the permanent stop is what? Permanent stop to mouth is what? It's death. Smelly mouth is a partial stop. That's also a stop but that's a part one because they might still be able to talk from a distance but the permanent one is to shut their mouth; if they won't repent they die. I said, they die for your sake. Don't be too holy, don't be. That's David, that's David. Glory to God. So, every enemy of your life, if they won't repent, they go down for your sake. I said, they go down for your sake in the name of Jesus Christ.
5. Paul
We also have Paul, the Apostle. Ephesian 3:8-11, Paul the Apostle, a man full of wisdom. II Peter 3:15, we see there where Peter is even referencing the wisdom of Apostle Paul. He thinks some of the things that Paul writes, they're difficult to understand at his level. Glory to God.
HOW TO APPLY WISDOM IN WINNING THE BATTLE
Applying wisdom. God said this, this is what to do and he's taking the steps. Glory to God. Now to keep growing in wisdom that wins the war, the following must be in place:
1. Keep making demand for wisdom to know the way to go. Keep placing a demand on wisdom.
Don't get to the point where you’ll say, I know everything now. People of wisdom know that the more they know of God, the more you know you don't know him. They're humble. Those who know God are humble. That's why you’ll Moses, they will talk against Moses; he won't talk back. God said, “I talk to this man face to face.” The more you know God, you get wiser by the day and you know you don't even know him. You have not scratched, so that makes you humble. So when you hear someone say, I know God. Know that he’s from God; you don’t know God. God, I may know him that should be the prayer all the time that I may know him, Paul at his level. Glory to God. So, keep making demand for wisdom, to know the way to go and then you have your victory.
Now, David did that. The Bible said, “David inquired, I Samuel 30:6-8; verse 8 says, “And David enquired at the Lord saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? Shall I overtake them? And the Lord answered him and said, "Pursue; for thou shalt surely," somebody say "Surely overtake them and without fail recover, how much?" All that becomes someone's word. You will overtake, you will recover all, and you will overtake. Everyone that has gone ahead of you, you will overtake them. Glory to God . II Samuel 5:22, he went back again and inquired; this time, God gave him a different strategy. He didn't say "I know how God told me to do the last time." He went back, “Shall I go ahead? These Philistines are spread in the valley of Rephaim. Should I go? He said, ”No.” God said, “No, change in strategy. Go behind, when you hear the moving of the mulberry trees, I'll go ahead of you; this one is different. Glory to God. Don't get too used to God. Some of us are too familiar with God. Some of us even know what they will preach. You say "I will go to church on the third Sunday of the month, that's when they will preach what I want to hear.” God is delivering someone. I said, God is delivering someone in the name of Jesus Christ. James 1, we have read that. You lack wisdom, ask from God and he will grant you. Glory to God.
2. Keep walking in the fear of God for access.
Walk in the fear of God; don't go with the counsel of men. If you lack the fear of God, you are going nowhere. Remember that the fear of God is what? The starting point is the foundation of wisdom. If you lack the fear of God, you cannot be wise. You say everything goes. Stand for God and fall for everything, that's a lie from the pit of hell. You can't stand for God and fall for everything, it's contradictory. They say it in the US; stands for God, fall for everything. Somebody say, God forbid. That's not your story. Glory to God. So, keep walking in the fear of God. Proverbs 9:10, says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and knowledge of the holy is understanding.” Psalm 25:14, “The secret thing or the secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his what? His covenant.” The secret are released to those who have the fear of God. So, if you lack the fear of God, you can't be wise because God will not be revealing things to you. But I pray for someone under the sound of my voice, God will be showing you things to come. I said God will be showing you things to come. You know if know your enemy’s strategy, you can defeat him cheaply. Do you agree with that? You know their strategy, you know what they're planning. I talked to you about the Vietnam War, US Vietnam War. Some of the techniques they use, Ukraine is using some of those. Part of the biggest problem for Russia today, from what we hear, is that US gives Ukraine superior intelligence information. They know what is coming, so they're able to counter it. So a war that the Russian thought would take them maybe 5-months, 6-months, 4-months is dragging, is still dragging. Your enemies will lose in the name of Jesus Christ.
3. Stay in love with God for sustainable access.
Stay in love. We have just said, “God reveals his secret to his lovers.” Stay in love with God. That's how David qualified for access to secret things, including knowing about Jesus's coming. Why? A man after my heart. A man who loves me, that's what it means. A man after my heart. I Samuel 13:14. Stay in love with God. Check your love temperature like papa will say, from time to time, am I still in love with God? Does his instruction still move me? Am I comfortable disobeying him? Those are all indicators that your love is going cold. Am I still interested in his house? David said, “I was glad when they said unto me, let us what? Go to his house.” I said it sometimes, some have said that church has become far yet this church has remained here and some have not moved from where they were; the same place. The same house where they were living, the same location of the church; now, they say the church is far. As if the church moved, it didn't move; your love moved. Glory to God. But that love is restored in the name of Jesus.
4. Continue to demand for endearment of the spirit of wisdom .
Ask for it. We have seen that in James 1:5-7. Ask for it. Ask God, father grant me wisdom. Commune with the Holy Ghost for wisdom; it's a spirit of wisdom. Concerning this issue, what do I do? How do I go about it? Glory to God. Isaiah 11:1-3, Ephesians 1:17,18.
5. Be committed to the study of the word.
Study the word in and out of season. Be committed to the study of the word. We have seen that in II Timothy 4:13, Ephesians 3:1-5. Glory to God. I have good news for someone, no more foolishness. The Bible lists foolishness as what a sin? No more foolishness, no more foolish divisions in the name of Jesus Christ. But from now, wisdom will put you and I on top. On that job, it will be clear you are a man of wisdom in the precious name of Jesus Christ. In that career, it will be clear you are a woman of wisdom in the precious name of Jesus. Who is a man and a woman of wisdom? A man and a woman of solution, of solution, of mighty works; not mighty words only, mighty works. Once has this man this wisdom and this mighty works. So, wherever there's the manifestation of wisdom, you see the proof as mighty works; that becomes your testimony
Now, today is our enough is enough service and everything that you have written on that list will become a testimony in the precious name of Jesus. All that you have written will become a testimony. Everything you are saying no to, God will confirm it in the precious name of Jesus. Hear this, a man can be going through a lot but until you react, God also will be watching you. You are going through some things; it's like you are comfortable with it. Someone went to see one of the very wealthy family members, and others were making demands and collecting things. He was quiet and so the aunt said, “So and so person has not said anything that he wants. Looks like he's comfortable.” He said, “No, I'm not comfortable. I need something. But why didn't you say it?” A closed mouth is what? A close destiny. Your destiny will not be shut. That means your mouth will not be shut in the precious name of Jesus Christ. So what I want to admonish you today, I need you when it's time to pray, react. React and open your mouth. React against the things that you have seen in your life that are not of God. Someone say amen to that. Glory to God.
II Samuel 24:16, he says, “And when the angel of the Lord stretched out his hand upon Jerusalem to destroy it.” He said, “The Lord repented him of the evil and said to the angel that destroyed the people, it is enough; stay now thine hand. And the angel of the Lord was by the threshing place of Araunah the Jebusite.” It's enough. And I stand here this morning as an angel privilege over this church, this local assembly, and I decree over your destiny, over the thing that is hurting you, it is enough. Over that sickness, I said, it's enough. Over that marital stagnation, it's enough in the name of Jesus Christ. It's not what we say alone that matters, but what we say without doubting. You see, you can be saying it and you're doubting it in your heart. That means you don't believe it. That's the fake place. So what are you saying, and what is the condition of your heart? Do you believe it? You say, it's enough, but the way this thing is, it looks like it my last, it might last for the next one year. You have nullified the Enough is Enough. May that not be nullified for you in the precious name of Jesus Christ. He said in Mark 11:23-24 "Verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, be thou removed; be thou cast into the sea and shall not doubt in his heart." That's the key and shall not doubt in his heart but shall believe that those things which he say shall come to pass.” He said, “He shall have whatsoever.” So, whosoever can have whatsoever if he believes. Glory to God.
The thing you are asking for is not bigger than God, convince yourself about that. It's not bigger than God. He can fix it. Glory to God. Also, take note that it is what we condemn that God confirms. It is what we condemn that God confirmed. Isaiah 54:17 says "No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper and every tongue that shall rise up against thee in judgment who shall condemn?" Who shall condemn? It says thou, thou means you; you will condemn. So, if you refuse to condemn, it will persist. The reason why many of us are suffering certain things is that you have not started condemning. You see, you get to the point where you are no longer praying; you move to the point of speaking. You know, Elijah stood and said "By my words," he didn't pray. He said "By my words, there shall not be rain until I say so." That means I will declare it and God will confirm it. Glory to God. Whatever you declare today, God will confirm. I said God will confirm in the precious name of Jesus Christ.
Also, take note that our spiritual authority is domiciled in the tongue. Where is it domiciled? In the tongue. So, use it to your advantage. He said in Luke 21:15 "For I will give you a mouth and a wisdom. What a combination, a mouth and wisdom. A mouth that lacks wisdom should be shut. Any mouth that lacks wisdom should be closed because you can ensnare your destiny. A mouth and wisdom, he said, “Which all of your adversaries shall not be able to gain say nor resist.” So, when you say it, it is law. In a few minutes, you are going to rise up and you're going to be saying. Say what you have written; anything you want to see an end concerning. Whatever you don't want anymore, you are going to judge them and God will confirm it in the precious name of Jesus Christ.
And finally as I close, Satan is now under your feet. Where is he? I can’t hear you. Where is Satan? So, everything the enemy is doing, he is below you. Glory to God. Jesus won the victory for you. You are more than a conqueror. Somebody say, I'm more than a conqueror. Glory to God. Romans 16:20, it said, “And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet, when? When? Now, shortly is now. Bruise Satan, not like he will put him there; he's bruising him, he will not recover. Rise to your feet. Stand to your feet. Lift up your hands. Give God thanks. Go ahead, magnify him from your heart. Let God hear your voice, someone. Thank him. Thank him. Thank him for the word. And say it to yourself "Satan is now under my feet. I have dominion over the forces of darkness. Satan is under my feet under my feet, under my feet. He doesn't have authority over me anymore. Thank you faithful God. Blessed be your name forever in the precious name of Jesus Christ. In Jesus precious name we have prayed, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed. Enough is Enough will only answer to God's children, to God's children. 1 John 5:4, “Whatsoever is born of who? Of God overcometh the world; and this is the victory that overcometh the world. Even what? Who is born of God? The one who is a child of God, purchased by the blood of Christ
ALTAR CALL
All eyes close; all heads bowed. You're under the sound of my voice right now and you're wondering where to start from to connect. You can connect by the blood of Christ, by the blood of Jesus. I give you an opportunity now to identify with Christ. Maybe, you have not had this kind of opportunity and this is your first, take advantage of it. You under the sound of my voice; you are not yet born again, you are not a child of God. You know that you have no relationship with God, why don't you establish it this time, this hour. All eyes closed, all heads bowed anyone under the sound of my voice, you want to take advantage of this moment, Jesus is calling, and he’s asking you to come. He’s asking you to come. Mathew 11:28 said "Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden" He said "I will give you rest.” Rest from all of those struggles. How? By saying Enough is Enough. It starts by the blood of Jesus; accepting the finished work of Christ. You want to say yes to Jesus, you want to give your life to Christ, I'd like to pray with you. Wherever you are, just lift up your hand above your head , the Lord bless you. God bless you richly. You are giving your life today to Jesus, you want him to take over; maybe, you have struggled with certain things; maybe you have fought by yourself and you discovered that you not making any breakthrough; you have used your strength. Maybe you have even used people, you have used friends. Maybe you have even used other things but it's not working, why don't you turn it over to Christ and let him take over the battle. He does not fail. He cannot fail. He does not lose battles.
You’re under the sound of my voice, you want to say yes to Jesus, I like to pray with you. Lift up your hand above your head. Don't be ashamed to do that. Don't be ashamed to identify with Christ. I like the privilege to pray with you. The Lord bless you, the Lord bless you. Don't be ashamed . Jesus said, “If you are ashamed before me in the presence of others, I will be ashamed of you before my father.” That is not where you want to be. You want Jesus to come into your heart. You want him to be your Lord and your savior. You want your joy restored. You want your victory restored. You want him to take over your battles and fight for you, I'd like to pray with you right now. Wherever you are, lift up your hand above your head as we pray together. I still wait for someone, place that hand on your chest. Place your right hand on your chest if you are praying right now. You want to say yes to Jesus. You want to receive him into your heart as your Lord and your savior. You have tried other things, you have tried many things; they didn't work. You have not found the solution; try Jesus, he can never fail you. Place your hand on your chest, I'll pray with you in a moment. But before then, I make a second call.
SECOND CALL: REDEDICATION
Someone else, you were born again but right now, there's a disconnect; you are no longer in Christ. You know if Jesus were to come right now, you have no portion with him. Why don't you turn things around by rededicating your life to Christ saying "Father, I'm sorry; take me back.” He will not deny you." That is your desire as well, I’ll like to pray with you. You want to rededicate your life to Christ. You want to be sure of your salvation. You want to be sure, maybe recent times you've been wondering, thinking, am I still in Christ? Am I still born again? That's a dangerous state where to be. Place your hand on your chest as I pray with you right now. Place your right hand on your chest as you pray together.
CONFESSION OF SIN
If your hand is on your on your chest, say this simple prayer with me. Say, Lord Jesus, I come to you today. I know that I'm a sinner, but I know that you die for me. On the third day, you rose again for my justification. Jesus, come into my heart. Be my Lord and my savior. Forgive me all my sins. Wash me with your blood. From today, I know I'm cleansed, I'm washed, I'm born again; I'm a child of God. I am free from the power of sin and Satan to serve the living God. Thank you Father for saving me. Thank you Father for restoring me. In Jesus precious name. Glory to God.

Isaiah 54:17, we read, he said, “No weapon fashioned against me, no matter who fashioned it, no weapon fashioned against me shall prosper.” Every tongue that shall rise up against me in judgment, who will condemn?

They said, “Keep quiet.” He cried out the more, a great deal, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy. Someone lift up your voice. Lift up your voice, let God hear you. He said, “Open your mouth wide, I will fill it.” He can fill it with testimonies. God is filling someone's mouth with testimonies. Don't be quiet. Don't be quiet. Don't be silent. Don't be quiet. Don't be silent. Don't watch what you don't want. Don't watch what you don't want. Don't watch that thing you don't want. Don't watch that stagnation you don't want.
