0:00Build for a glory you may never see.
0:04Build partnering with a God that is
0:07eternal.
0:11The next woman you must remember as you
0:13build is Deborah.
0:15A woman that heralded the dispensation
0:18of law and the judges.
0:22Deborah carried an office that people
0:24had never carried before. As you build,
0:27God may give you a vision that you have
0:29no example for. A vision that has no
0:32blueprint, a vision that has no one to
0:35follow and an example to copy.
0:38You run away from what God called you to
0:40do because you said nobody else has done
0:41it before. Have you considered that
0:44maybe you are the person that God wants
0:45to use to show a generation how it
0:48should be done?
0:50On that topic of carrying a new mandate,
0:53I just want to say to you, one time
0:55somebody said to me, Apostle, there's
0:57somebody that is doing one thing called
1:00Deborah something and everything she's
1:03doing is like the way you do it now. I
1:07said, why is it now? She said, no, they
1:10are copying you. I said, if you are not
1:12yet copied, you are not yet a template
1:15from God.
1:18I did not come to be a superstar. I came
1:22to be a blueprint and an instruction
1:24concerning a coming future.
1:27[Applause]
1:31>> You are fighting everybody you are
1:33supposed to raise.
1:35>> Pulling down everyone whose life is
1:38supposed to validate your calling.
1:42>> Don't you know that a copy validates
1:45that there's a real version? Yes.
1:48>> Don't you know that fake
1:51Louis Vuitton proves that there's a real
1:53Louis Vuitton that people will pay value
1:55for?
1:57Until you become a prototype, you're not
1:59yet ready to be like the Bora.
2:02When you build, tell yourself nobody may
2:05have done it before, but after me
2:07thousands will do it
2:09>> and it will be to the glory of God.
2:12Build remembering women like Hannah.
2:15Hannah
2:17was a woman of prophetic transition.
2:20She saw the house of Israel. Nora,
2:23please come and help me. She saw the
2:25house of Israel and she knew that it was
2:28time for the lineage of Eli to end
2:32because when she saw the sons of Eli,
2:35she knew that those sons did not have
2:38the capacity
2:41did not have the capacity to produce the
2:43priesthood that God required.
2:45She knew that those sons will finish the
2:48mandates that God had for the tribe of
2:50Israel. Thank you very much. God bless
2:51you. I will not use you shame to eat rat
2:54poison.
3:00People of God, I'm anointed but I'm
3:03human.
3:07I was considering ending the sermon here
3:10and now.
3:12But I said to myself, wouldn't I put the
3:14shoe instead?
3:17So as you build,
3:20build like Hannah,
3:23do you know that
3:26there are people that have done things
3:28to me
3:30and God will tell me, "Lady bishop,
3:33I need you to fast and pray for one week
3:37so that you may pronounce my blessing
3:39over this person.
3:42and bring them into their prophetic
3:43inheritance.
3:46And I will say, God,
3:48I believe you meant fast and pray so
3:52that we may wipe them from the face of
3:54the earth
3:55and men may know that whoever violates
3:58me violates the God of thunder.
4:02And God will say to me, no,
4:05for one week, speak a blessing.
4:08And he would say to me, E,
4:11just because this person harmed you does
4:14not mean that they've harmed me.
4:19[Music]
4:21>> They are still in my will.
4:24I've not erased them from the portions
4:25of the heavens and the earth.
4:28The way you are a child of mine, that's
4:30the way they are a child of mine.
4:33If everybody that you have harmed come
4:35to me and tell me to wipe you off, where
4:37would you be?
4:40And he said to me one day, he said, "The
4:42only reason,
4:45let me use an example, a girl that
4:48wanted to stay my husband for me by all
4:50means,
4:52Lady Bishop,
4:54text messages,
4:56WhatsApp messages,
4:58pictures,
5:00she pursue the pursuer.
5:05[Music]
5:07until he pursued became pursuing.
5:14And I said, "God,
5:17you who breaks the chains,
5:19rips apart the bars of iron." God said,
5:21"Calm down."
5:25By the time God begins to call you great
5:27woman of God
5:30and God said, "Great woman,
5:34calm down." I said, "Gosh, you don't
5:37want me to say anything, right? Because
5:38vengeance is the Lord's." And he said to
5:41me, "No, you will say something." He
5:43said, "What you're going to do is that
5:44you're going to take 3 days to pray." I
5:47said, "Yes, right on." He said, "I am
5:50going to use three days to pray for her
5:52destiny." I said, "You say what?"
5:56He said, "You're going to pray that
5:58everything I have called her to do, she
6:01will do. She will not miss her calling.
6:04She will not miss her destiny. She will
6:06not fall by the wayside. She will not be
6:08stolen by hell. She will not be
6:10destroyed by darkness." And God said to
6:13me, "There is no soul that is lost that
6:15does not grieve my heart."
6:17He said, "Do you love your pay more than
6:20you love my heart?"
6:25>> So I said, "It's your heart now."
6:31>> And he said, "If you love me, pray with
6:34me."
6:36He said, "Because I'm not praying
6:38against her. I'm praying for her. I live
6:42forever to make intercession.
6:47So here was I on my knees.
6:52You will bless.
6:55You will bless her.
7:00You will you will secure her.
7:05The prayer sounded like curse.
7:11By the third day,
7:14my heart
7:17had received such a download of
7:19revelation of who she was called to be
7:22that the only thing I could do was weep
7:25in anticipation of her restoration.
7:28Ah, by the time I picked the phone to
7:31call my sister in the Lord,
7:38[Music]
7:40I said, "Hello."
7:42Yes. Hello.
7:44This is a false we see
7:48crickets.
7:49And then after a 10-second awkward
7:53silence,
7:54it was a case of yes, I said ah
7:59you will not talk to me like that.
8:02I said you know on a normal day you and
8:04I are no mates
8:06where I stand you cannot stand in the
8:10physical and in the spirit. I said, "So
8:13when a woman like me pick up my phone to
8:14call you, you better understand it's
8:17because there's a mission from heaven."
8:20I said, "Do you understand what I'm
8:21saying?" Then it changed. "Yes, ma'am."
8:24Good.
8:30I said, "I am fully aware, but it does
8:33not matter, ma." I say, "No need to
8:36talk.
8:37God has spoken for you.
8:42I am not calling you to condemn you. I'm
8:45calling you to tell you of the goodness
8:46and the love of God towards you.
8:50And I began to prophesy. And she began
8:53to weep.
8:56I'm so sorry. I said, "You don't have to
8:58apologize to me.
9:00You have no fault with me anymore.
9:04You are still waiting for somebody to
9:05apologize to you before you forgive.
9:10I don't need you to because the
9:12mechanism of the mechani and the
9:14mechanization of forgiveness does not
9:16come from your mouth.
9:18>> It is something that is processed in the
9:20spirit.
9:22The chains that hold people bound to
9:25unforgiveness is not in the hand of the
9:27offender. It is in the hand of Satan.
9:32who you need to break away from is not
9:34another person but the devil that
9:37conspired and inspired the pain that
9:40wants to hold you captive.
9:43So I said, "What are you begging me for?
9:45I don't need it." I said, "Jesus needs
9:48you."
9:49After this conversation, she said, "What
9:52do I do?" I said, "Repeat after me,
9:56Lord Jesus.
10:01Then I wanted that that EC that is
10:04human. You know that person was still
10:06hiding somewhere. After I said Lord
10:09Jesus, I wanted to say say after me turn
10:11that fire me.
10:16But I remember the Lord my God
10:20and I said say Jesus help me.
10:23And this lady gave her life to Christ
10:26again.
10:29And then where she was, he reached to
10:32clap for me. Clap. It's no easy.
10:36[Music]
10:39And where she was, I was hearing okay,
10:41okay, okay, okay, okay. You know those
10:42music. I said to her, auntie, carry your
10:47bag from that place you are and go home
10:50now. Don't return there again. She said,
10:53I will. I will.
10:57And at the end of the call, she now
10:59said, "Can I ask a favor?"
11:03I said, "God, now you're testing me."
11:10And she said, "Can you mentor me?" I
11:12said, "No.
11:15It's not possible.
11:17Even by the blood, it cannot work.
11:22I can refer other pastors to you. It
11:24can't be me.
11:26She said, "Okay, that's fine." I said,
11:28"Yes." I said, "But from time to time,
11:29you can reach out to me. Tell me how you
11:32are doing. Ask me a question you have."
11:35Okay. Yes. Every now and then she will
11:38send me a message. I will never forget.
11:41She will write the date. God bless you,
11:44man.
11:46Listen,
11:49when you see some people wielding the
11:51authority they have,
11:53it's not a gift. It is a labor.
11:58Power
11:59is not a gift. It is stewardship.
12:05Oil
12:07is not a gift. It's a crushing.
12:13Lay hands on me so that I may have what
12:14you have. It cannot be given like that.
12:19Jesus said, "If you don't eat my flesh
12:21and drink my blood, you have no part in
12:23me.
12:25There are some sufferings that you will
12:27go through. The angels will look at you
12:30and said this one is like Jesus. So the
12:33day you say I call heaven, they will say
12:34yes we are here.
12:37The reason why you don't wield authority
12:39is because you have not embraced the
12:41suffering that produces authority.
12:44So when you build present your womb like
12:48Hannah
12:49and say God I give it to you. I really
12:53really want a son so that I can show
12:56Penina.
12:58In fact, give me four
13:00so that when the four come like this,
13:02she will know there's a God in heaven.
13:05But when she looked around, she's like,
13:07I don't need four. I need only one that
13:10can be a judge in Israel. If you give me
13:13this one, I will give him back to you
13:15for your glory.
13:17Some of the things God will ask you to
13:19build, you will have it for only a time
13:23and you will need to give it up for the
13:25kingdom.
13:27Do you understand what I'm saying?
13:29>> Build like Hannah.
13:32Build like
13:37Mary.
13:39You are going to carry a child. Don't
13:41say ah these things. No. Tell me what I
13:43need to do Lord and I'll do it.
13:47One of the things one woman had a
13:49conversation with me recently a minister
13:51of the gospel and she said to me she
13:53said apostasy
13:54I have watched you carefully
13:57everything you have done in the past 3
13:59years
14:01God told me to do those exact things
14:07even though I was like okay and she said
14:09the only difference is while I am still
14:12saying God how I will see flyer that you
14:15have done
14:18She says, "So I've followed you
14:20constantly and watched and I found out
14:23that what you have is quick obedience.
14:27What may I have is analysis paralysis?"
14:32[Music]
14:34And I said to her, "Well, I don't know
14:35about I don't know your story and what
14:37God commanded you to do, but I know that
14:40me easy, I don't wait for perfection. I
14:44follow instruction.
14:46If God tells me be going now to Lebanon,
14:49ask my team, I don't consider who is in
14:52Lebanon or who is the president of
14:53Lebanon. I will first make flyer
14:56Lebanon. Here I come
14:59and then I'll begin to follow the
15:01breadcrumbs of God's instructions
15:04until I see a manifestation of what God
15:06has promised.
15:08You need to learn to build like Mary.
15:13You are going to give birth to a
15:15deliverer and a messiah.
15:18Don't speak like Zachariah. How can
15:20these things be? Two people asked the
15:22same question. One was made dumb.
15:25Another one was given power to conceive.
15:28Zachariah said, "How can these things
15:29be?" They said, "Because of this
15:30question, you will not speak till the
15:32child is born." Mary said, "How can
15:34these things be?" He said, "The Holy
15:35Spirit will overshadow you."
15:37It is not just the words of your mouth
15:40but the conviction of your heart that
15:42determines how heaven responds to you.
15:45So if God tells you
15:48build for me, I want you to raise the
15:51next tech company
15:55that will come out of East Africa. I
15:57will become a symbol of my grace in
15:59Africa. Don't say to God, a woman has
16:01never done it before. Tell him what do
16:03you need me to do?
16:06be audacious.
16:09I have failed several times.
16:12I have told my team things that I said
16:14God will do. God did not do it.
16:17I have called them together before and
16:19say there's a word of the Lord. We are
16:22going to and it did not happen. Lady
16:24bishop the Satan whisper to me at night.
16:28What time?
16:30Your season of shame is now.
16:34all your people will leave you. And I
16:36will say to Satan,
16:38anybody that does not understand that
16:41there's the sovereign word of God and
16:42there's the manifested word of God, it's
16:45not me that will convince them, God can
16:47give a command, but our limitation will
16:50stop the command from manifesting fully.
16:53I said, so I will go back to them and
16:55tell them, I don't know why it didn't
16:56happen. Oh, let's try again.
17:00You must learn to be resilient and
17:02audacious.
17:04A woman that we build must shun shame.
17:07Do you know how many people insult me?
17:10Have you gone under some of my YouTube
17:11videos? Jezebel
17:15with her red nails and red lips. These
17:17are the end time people that call
17:19themselves apostles.
17:21Sometimes when I see it, I will laugh.
17:25I will say, "Wow, now wow. With all this
17:28my suffering, somebody still say I'm
17:29Jezebel."
17:32But guess what? Has no bearing on my
17:34future.
17:36>> Have a hard skin, but a soft heart.
17:41This is how we build in this season.
17:44As we move forward into the new day,
17:46daughters of Zion,
17:50I need you to trust the Lord
17:54to be like the Hannah prophet. Honor the
17:56prophetess who waited for Jesus.
18:02A woman
18:04who inaugurated grace.
18:08A woman that was seen in Luke 2:38.
18:12She gave thanks when she saw Jesus,
18:15but we did not hear of her again.
18:21What if
18:24Apostle was just for a season?
18:27[Music]
18:29One day God said to me, "What if after
18:322025 I call you away from ministry?
18:38What if people stop celebrating you
18:40after this year?
18:42Will you still follow me or will you try
18:45to make
18:47something that keeps you relevant?"
18:51I said to God, "Where were they when you
18:55saved me?
18:58Where were the people?
19:00The nights I cried and you held me.
19:05Where are they? The days my bank account
19:08looks like Bible verse 2.36.
19:15And then you will send me millions.
19:20The people have no power to preserve me
19:23only you.
19:26I said, "So when you are done with me,
19:29please take the glory.
19:32I'm satisfied
19:35just to see you glorified.
19:39Take the stage, Lord,
19:43and have your way.
19:48I'm just your vessel
19:50[Music]
19:52and nothing more.
19:56When you're done,
20:00please take the glory.
20:03[Music]
20:05I'm satisfied
20:09just to see you glorified.
20:13>> Take the stage.
20:14>> Let us stand on your feet.
20:16>> Take the stage, Lord,
20:20>> and have your way.
20:25I'm just your vessel
20:29and nothing more.
20:34>> When you're done,
20:38pleased in the glory.
20:44I'm satisfied
20:47just to see you glorified
20:50[Music]
20:52when you're done.
20:54When you're done,
20:58please
21:04I'm satisfied
21:08just to see you glorified.
21:12The Bible says
21:15that a builder should have more glory
21:18than that which he builds.
21:22As you build from a place of rest,
21:25please know that the works of your hands
21:29should not be greater than the state of
21:32your heart.
21:34The dominion mandate that Adam was given
21:38is not greater than the Adam that was
21:41called to execute it.
21:44This is why it was the fall of Adam that
21:46changed the mandate. It wasn't the
21:48change of the mandate that made Adam
21:50fall.
21:52As you build,
21:54do not define yourself by the things you
21:56build.
21:58Learn to construct but detach your
22:01identity from it.
22:04This is why I can be Apostle Easy, but I
22:07can play like a child.
22:09I will go on roller coaster and be
22:11shouting like a mad woman.
22:14Me and my children will roll on the
22:15ground.
22:17Me and my friends, hot, hot girls.
22:23Hey, I'm not lying. My friends are hot.
22:28Ah, when they dress up, I'll say what is
22:30it? Are you in competition with the son?
22:35Do you get by time they finish dressing?
22:39Huh? I'll be questioning my apostolic
22:41mandate.
22:43[Music]
22:45Some days we'll just decide. Let's dress
22:48up.
22:49Let's just dress up and go out.
22:53Where we go? We'll just find any
22:55restaurant
22:56and we'll put it on the group. Everybody
22:58make sure you wear high heel. look nice.
23:02I will go out.
23:04There are those that my Instagram so
23:06used to vex them because my pose is not
23:09like an apostles pose. Apostles pose
23:12like this.
23:14[Music]
23:21Apostles don't laugh
23:23cuz the anointing is strong.
23:27They contort the face.
23:29John, we are truly anointed. We are
23:31praying,
23:34>> but me when I pose, I hold one heap,
23:38>> slant to the back,
23:40>> pout the lips to the glory of God the
23:43Father,
23:44[Music]
23:45[Applause]
23:46[Music]
23:50end time apostles,
23:56what I build is not me.
24:01It's not me.
24:03Because the day that thing is shredded,
24:07because it season is over,
24:10>> you will use everything that you have to
24:13try to restore what God has told you to
24:16forget.
24:18>> Because you only have value based on
24:20what you built.
24:24This is how people break boundaries in
24:26the spirit
24:28because you attached yourself to the
24:29creation
24:33as you build.
24:36Secure yourself and root yourself. Let
24:39your leg touch the ground.
24:43Let it touch the ground. Hold your
24:46husband. Let him hold you.
24:49When he hold you, don't be say
24:52What is wrong with you?
24:56Even Adam, the original man, when he saw
25:01Eve, he became a poet, born of my bone,
25:04flesh of my flesh.
25:07You in the midst of intimacy for the
25:09Lord God Almighty has come say prophet
25:12what is calm down sister calm down
25:15relax yourself
25:18when the man touch you small you say
25:20what is it I'm in a season of fasting ah
25:24auntie please read your Bible well
25:27permission is needed for such actions
25:32be soft I keep saying this thing because
25:35it's a crucial matter Lady Bishop,
25:38some matters you are bringing to this
25:40altar can be resolved with 7 days of
25:45intimacy
25:46and intercourse.
25:49Amen.
25:51>> I'm saying it to only married people.
25:52Oh,
25:56frustration.
25:58Lady Bishop, pray for us. This marriage
26:00is not working. It's about to end. Why
26:01won't it end?
26:046 months. No, nothing. Why? Are you the
26:08one that killed Jesus? Even if it's
26:11penance, by now it should be over.
26:15Do you understand? Because I'm a strong
26:18prayer warrior. Okay? Finish worrying
26:21and have nothing to go back to.
26:25I keep repeating this thing. Some of you
26:27have been married for 13 years. The
26:30things that the girls came together to
26:32buy for you during your bridal shower is
26:36the night wear you are still wearing 30
26:38years later.
26:40The thing has shifted from nightwear to
26:43nightmare.
26:44[Music]
26:51Some of you when you sleep and the man
26:54wakes up and turns and sees you on the
26:56blood of Jesus.
26:59You say honey what is it? You say no.
27:01It's okay. It's okay.
27:05All your hair is standing like who?
27:08Electricity shock.
27:10Have you heard of hairet
27:15night cap?
27:19Some of you you had longer hair with
27:22shaving stick.
27:26Why?
27:28What did the razor and the blade do to
27:30you?
27:33We must preserve Eden the way God made
27:35you are
27:38[Music]
27:41daughters of Zion.
27:43There's a God in heaven. Oh, he's
27:47watching
27:50your night when you now manage to buy
27:53you buy trouser
27:55that has banned
28:00Pretty bishop. Why?
28:04What happened to the short one?
28:07>> Praise God.
28:09>> That leaves nothing to imagination.
28:14Your night wears turtleneck.
28:19[Music]
28:24Sisters in the Lord. I write this
28:26epistle to you
28:29from my bed chamber as an apostle of the
28:32Lord Jesus Christ. I urge you, my fellow
28:34sisters, wear your short night gown.
28:38Show a little cleavage.
28:40Amen.
28:43>> Spray
28:44perfume
28:46soft one.
28:49Comb your hair. If you pull your wig,
28:52[Music]
28:55use lip gloss.
28:57He, you know, he has not kissed me in
28:58five years. Why will he kiss?
29:01You don't brush at night. Your lips are
29:04dried and cracked
29:07like the mountains
29:09that surround Jerusalem.
29:11[Music]
29:19These things I'm saying sound like a
29:21joke,
29:24but do you know that it can devail
29:25somebody's destiny?
29:28Be humble.
29:31Be humble.
29:33Be humble.
29:36I suppose if it doesn't come to me, I
29:37will never again. Why?
29:41Why? If they toasted you for 3 years
29:44before you said yes, you toast now. Now,
29:48Abby, toast.
29:51Go back and wrap him up a little bit.
29:54Apostle, you don't know what he has done
29:55to me. I know, trust me. But what do you
29:58want to do?
30:00Are you leaving or are you staying? If
30:03you are staying, then do what you need
30:06to do. Stay well.
30:10Because you see this turn between two
30:12opinions is the reason why you left us
30:15four years ago. Now it's the reason why
30:17you are leaving protocol and it will be
30:19the reason why you will leave the church
30:20that God will give you to manage 4 years
30:22from now.
30:24[Music]
30:25So you better decide quickly
30:29how you want to run this race.
