[0:43] Father, speak your word to us. Change our situations and conditions. In Jesus' name, amen. If you have your Bible, can you please turn to Mark. Mark chapter 11.

[0:57] This is a story where Jesus and his disciples were coming from Bethany, Jerusalem to Bethany, or Bethany to Jerusalem.

[1:12] And Mark chapter 11 and verse 11 particularly. And Jesus entered into Jerusalem and into the temple. And when he had looked around about upon all things, and now the event tide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.

[1:36] So on his way to Bethany, verse 12, on the next day, so Jesus went to Bethany, and then they returned to Jerusalem. So on the next day that the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry.

[1:51] And he saw a fig tree. And seeing a fig tree afar of having leaves, he came.

[2:05] If happening, he might find anything there. And when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves. You know how sometimes the end of the month has come, and you check your accounts?

[2:22] Because at least you know you've done some overtime. You check your account. You see, you find nothing but leaves. They say you did so well in the interview.

[2:37] You'll hear from him this evening. You definitely, you did well. I think you are the best candidate. We don't even have to interview the others. I'll call you back this week. They'll call you and say, Oh, you know what? There was a mouth.

[2:51] You feel like banging the phone on them. Leaves. The same thing happened to Jesus. He saw the fig tree afar off. And he saw that he had leaves.

[3:03] So that was suggesting that, Oh, there must be fruits. But he didn't realize that the hair he saw was not real hair. It was a wig.

[3:25] What is this? He was just trying to pass his hand around the hair. Only to realize that the hair was falling. Sliding.

[3:38] It was sliding. Sister, just smile. No one knows that. We all believe it's yours. After all, it's yours.

[3:50] You paid for it. You paid for a lot of money for it. But how many of you have got, approached the tree, thinking it had fruits, only to find under its leaves?

[4:03] The form. You saw from afar off that this one is good for me. You went to it only to realize that it was... Sometimes you're expecting a good news.

[4:17] I mean, you know it's already happened. Yeah, it's a done deal. Only to realize that it's April Fool. So, okay.

[4:34] You're not the only one. It happened to Jesus. But I want... We have to find out how he did his own. Because the tree was giving fake promises.

[4:51] Fake promises. Look at Jesus. He said, No, come. I'll give you something to eat. Come. And Jesus moved. It's far off. So he moved towards the tree. He should have concentrated on his journey.

[5:04] Not that... Not that Jesus Christ didn't know. But he was teaching us that when things are not the way they should and they're trying to stay in your way, there is a way you can deal with them.

[5:20] Some of you knew that last year was your year to be married. And guess what? This year you are still not married. Leaves. So...

[5:32] So what happened? What happened? Then... Bible said, for it was not yet time.

[5:45] Then verse 14 says, Then Jesus answered. What did Jesus do? Answered and said. What did he do? Answered and said. What did he do? Answered and said. That tells you that tree was speaking to him.

[5:58] Tree was speaking to him. You don't have to be quiet to... Answered and said. You have to learn how to speak back. Speak back.

[6:08] Speak back. Last Friday... Not this Friday. The other Friday. on the 8th of April. I was in prayer. And the Lord showed me how there has been a satanic arsenal released to frustrate people who want to push in God.

[6:28] Some of you have already started feeling it and seeing it. Things are suddenly taking fun of them. And you are now beginning to question. Am I... Should I actually continue?

[6:39] Or as you find a different root? It's a satanic ploy. Some of you, suddenly, things have just turned against you in such an unreasonable way.

[6:53] You just can't explain it. So, God showed me how this is... From satanic cortis, from the regions of the underworld, things have been programmed to harass and frustrate, to attack.

[7:11] And then, when he spoke to me, he said, but, go teach my people how to reign over it. Last week.

[7:25] Not this past week. The other one. How did Jesus deal with it? Listen. It doesn't matter how tough the situation is in your life. You can deal with it.

[7:36] Amen. You... Yes, sir. The young lady didn't call K-group leader even. It's good. Most of the testimony people didn't say, and I'll call pastor, and I'll call pastor.

[7:47] There are some pastors in town to make themselves feel good, useful, feel relevant. Everything. They say, you have to call your pastor to pray for me. You even bought your house. They say, if I haven't prayed over the house, don't go and live in the house.

[7:58] You have bought a car. If I haven't prayed over my sister, just pray over it yourself and start driving the car. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. None of these guys called. Pastor, they went to K-group.

[8:11] K-group prayed, matters were settled. Some of it within 24 hours. One of the sisters, she said, three, three, three, three prayer topics were all answered in 24 hours.

[8:22] K-group. You... The lady, the young lady, Mama Grace, 73 years old. She went, she saw this man, she said, I'll pray for you.

[8:38] Pull out oil, pray for the man, the man said, a little one of you. And a small one, a mighty nation.

[8:54] She prays and, it's working. Listen, God has given me the mandate to deliver into your hands.

[9:04] How to reign in life sweatlessly. Amen. Jesus saw the fig tree. Systems, according to the season, season, it's okay if the fig tree doesn't give you fruit.

[9:18] According to the season, the Bible says, for it was not yet a time. But Jesus said, I came expecting because you gave me the impression there's something here for me. And the tree was speaking to Jesus that I dare you, you won't get anything.

[9:33] I dare you, you won't get... And the tree had justification, seasonal justification. But Jesus said, Bible Jesus, put you on the screen, please. And Jesus answered and said to the tree, no man eat fruit of thee hereafter forever.

[9:54] In other words, he will not bear fruit again. He answered, he spoke back to the tree. You must learn how to speak to situations.

[10:06] Spoke back to the tree and his disciples heard him. Jump to verse 17. verse 18, verse 19.

[10:17] And verse 19 says, and when evening was come, I'm reading from King James Version. Interesting phrase, your logic, isn't it? When evening was come. I like that kind of...

[10:29] In other words, in the evening. That's a very nice one. And verse 19, and when evening was come, he went out of the city.

[10:41] And in the morning, as they passed by, the disciples saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.

[10:54] You know what I saw? Not dried up to the roots. It started from the... As soon as Jesus spoke, the things started from the roots.

[11:05] So it caught up later with the leaves. It didn't start drying outside, then it affected the roots. The roots dried, and then it started affecting what you see.

[11:18] So when you speak, it begins to change things in the unseen world. Before you see it, it started happening.

[11:29] Listen, listen, listen. Some of you, before you do that scan again, or that blood test again, that healing has taken place before you go and do it.

[11:42] Are you guys seeing what I'm saying? You go to verify. But healing has taken place. Before you stop feeling the pain in your body, the healing has already taken place.

[11:55] Shut up and blessed. Shut up and blessed. So, it has dried up from the roots and the disciples, Peter, the next verse is that, and Peter, calling to remembrance, said unto Jesus, Master, look, the fig tree which you cursed.

[12:27] Okay, cursedest. Okay, bye. That's nice English. The fig tree which thou cursedest is withered away.

[12:44] Away. Peter was amazed because, you know why he was amazed? I mean, common sense tells you, it doesn't happen like that.

[12:57] 24 hours, no chance. I like that. It does not just happen like that. So, how did it happen? See, what the normal mind processes is below the technology and the realm of God.

[13:14] So, in our normal education, we have taught how things work physically. We are not taught how things work supernaturally and spiritually. And so, most of us are employing just physical means to solve the situations.

[13:30] Sometimes, it will just require one or two physical means. But, at that times, it will require some spiritual intensity. That lady said that, I want to marry, but I didn't have money to marry.

[13:42] And then, when it was building me a house, when we are giving money for the church building, the little I have, I came and gave it.

[13:52] And I felt it. Didn't God meet her? Didn't God answer her? Gave her, not immediately, but some way, somehow.

[14:05] Gave her a better job with a better pay. Went to marry without cost. for that cost. And some of you have spent a lot of money polishing, making up, jamming up, doing all kinds of things, thinking that that is what would, I'm going to tell you, thinking that that is what would guarantee your future.

[14:31] Your future is not in the physical things you are just doing. I'm talking to people whose future, there's something that is trying to arrest and hijack your future.

[14:44] I need to take the power of God. Shout power. Power. Jesus, Peter said, Jesus, the victory you cast is withered away.

[14:57] What did Jesus say? Let's all read it. One more time. And Jesus asked you. One more time. And Jesus answered you. One more time.

[15:08] And Jesus answered you. And Jesus answered you. One more time. One more time. One more time.

[15:19] Why did he use answering? Because Peter said something. You don't just answer. You answer when a question has been asked or something has been said. So the victory spoke. And Jesus answered.

[15:31] And so this one, Peter also spoke. He says, Jesus answered and said unto him. Let's go. Let's read it. And? Jesus answered and said unto him. Have faith in God.

[15:43] Shh. What is the master key? Faith in God. What is the master key? Faith in God. Jesus said. Peter said, how?

[15:54] How? He said, have faith in God. Tell someone, have faith in God. Have faith in God. Tell the person, don't be too fearful. Don't be too fearful.

[16:05] Don't be too insecure. Don't be too insecure. Have faith in God. Have faith in God. Shake the person on the shoulder of someone and tell the person, have faith in God. Have faith in God.

[16:16] Have faith in God. May I submit to you that challenges in life will not cease.

[16:33] You remember how you got good news a few weeks ago, a few months ago. Already now you are faced with another, something that you need, another good news.

[16:44] Tomorrow you need another good news. That is why they just shall live in my faith. If you want God to be behind your victory, then your faith is essential or imperative.

[17:00] If you want God to be behind your testimony, then your faith, engaging your faith is a must. You have to.

[17:13] You have to. Don't cry the way everyone is crying. There must be a difference in approach. And that is what will determine the difference in the results.

[17:28] When they hear bad news, the way they react shouldn't be the way you react, a woman or a man of faith when you hear bad news. Sometimes, the thing can hit you, you begin to try and cry, but you know what?

[17:41] Shake it off yourself. What did Jesus say? Have faith in God. Some of us, life is throwing major questions at you.

[17:53] You don't have the answer. You don't need to have the answer. All you need to have is what? Faith in God. Oh, Lord, have mercy on me.

[18:06] Someone shout faith. Faith. Then, Jesus went on. This is not the message I wanted to preach, but it starts the same thing because God spoke to me. Teach the people to speak. That's all I want to speak.

[18:18] But my preparation is not this one. But this is okay for you. Now, Jesus, verse 23, what's the first word?

[18:32] I don't hear you. I can't hear you. The first hundred people who shout the forlada, you'll get your mouth. why should you have faith in God?

[18:51] That means that this is how faith works. for verily, I say unto you, you shall be great, you will be lifted. It shall be well with you.

[19:06] It shall be well with you. It shall be well with you. I said, it shall be well with you. In the mighty name of Jesus. For verily, I say to you, you don't need to be a pastor.

[19:20] You don't need to be a priest. You don't need to be 20 years in the Lord. You don't need to be five years in the Lord. You don't need to be one month in the Lord. Verily, I say to you, whosoever shall sing.

[19:36] So the problem is, if you are dumb, it's in trouble. It's a big problem. You have to say it. You didn't get what I meant.

[19:51] Even if you are deaf and dumb, you can make some noise. It may not be intelligible words, but, I'm telling you, five years.

[20:12] No, it's an expression. You don't have to remain calm and quiet and polite. How would you be polite if a fox has entered your house, ransacking your kitchen, is going for your baby's leg?

[20:25] You can't be polite. Some of us have problems if you are too decent and gentle. When your house is on fire, you are still trying to show how gentle you are?

[20:41] You better scream out. You better shout for help. Verily, I say unto you, whosoever shall say to this mountain.

[20:55] be thou removed and be cast into the sea and shall not doubt in his heart, but believe it.

[21:23] But shall believe it that those things which he say. Say it, say it, say it. You are saying, not doubting, and believing. Say, you don't doubt, but believe.

[21:34] Say, don't doubt, but believe. Say, don't doubt, but believe. Some of you, all that we are left with is doctor's report. Doctor say, doctor, you two, what are you saying?

[21:48] My doctor say, my doctor say, my doctor say, my doctor say, my boss, my boss said, the garbage is saying, the court is saying, this one is saying, my wife is saying, my husband said, my mama said, my teacher said, what shall say?

[22:06] He said, who so ever shall say? So, if you don't say, what people are saying is what you get. God has created us to have audacity and authority in our own lives.

[22:27] I'm sharing some CEO stuff. If you can change your approach, your results will be fantastic. Some people are waiting for a pastor to lay hands.

[22:42] So you shake, you shake, you shake. They think you have received your miracle. It's maybe faith. Maybe faith. You are waiting for a pastor to pray for you before?

[22:56] Oh, come on. Come on. He said, you can't say something about the situation. Say something. Sister, you have stayed too long, not married.

[23:08] Start talking about your marriage. No, no, I'm not saying put you on Facebook. He said you married me. No, no, that's not what I said. I didn't say that. I didn't say that. I didn't say put you on Facebook. I am available.

[23:19] I am available. I am available. I didn't say that. I didn't say that. But what I said is to learn how to address the situation. Sometimes you are by yourself and you begin to speak.

[23:29] I'm going to get married. My marriage will be well. My marriage will be fantastic. My marriage will do well. Speak over your life. And you look at your elder sisters. Your first, the first one, you are the fifth.

[23:40] First one is not married. Second one is not married. Third one is not married. Fourth one is not married. And the fourth one married and things are funny. And even the one after you is also not married. Just the one he's living with is somebody's husband.

[23:52] You know what I'm talking about? And all you are surrounded by is the negative evidence.

[24:06] And you are just calm, waiting. Listen. If you wait for the new railway to come to your house before you start going out, even if you have an emergency in your house, the emergency service will not come.

[24:28] Someone must call. Pick your phone. Dial 999. Then they will come. There are people here that are saying God has let you down.

[24:44] What have you been saying? And some of us say because we're just trying to say something, but in your heart you don't believe it. You cancel what you are saying.

[24:54] Put it on the screen. It said, Whosoever shall stay to this mountain and shall not doubt in his heart. If your heart is saying something different from what your lips are saying, it ain't gonna work.

[25:06] Whosoever shall say and does not doubt but believe that this thing I'm saying is going to work.

[25:16] This thing I'm saying. It says that you shall have whatsoever but that thing he is saying is coming. Shall have whatsoever whatsoever not he think it.

[25:29] No, no, no. Not wish it. Your wishing will not do it. It's your speaking.

[25:39] Okay? Your speaking. Your speaking. Your speaking. Your speaking. In the face of contrary circumstances and contrary evidence. Listen, God showed me.

[25:51] He said, tell my people don't change your confession from what I have said. The guarantee of your future or the guarantee of the help of God for your life is tied to what he has said which you are repeating.

[26:07] The guarantee of God's help for your life is tied to what he has said which you are repeating. In faith. In faith.

[26:18] You can't just go and say anything at all. No. You say what you found in the word. Sometimes you don't know what to say. When you are reading the Bible or you come to church you are reading something you find out this is supposed to be me.

[26:31] This can be my testimony. That's good enough for you. Start confessing it. Start confessing it. Don't go confessing it to unbelievers and ask them what do you think. Don't be telling some Christians are practical atheists.

[26:46] It's true. Some of us have surrounded ourselves with so called Christians but they don't even know what Christianity is about. the only way you get saved is by speaking.

[27:02] He said in Romans chapter 10 verse 6 He speaks about the righteousness of the law and then He speaks He says that but verse 5 talks about the righteousness of the law look at verse 5 for Moses for Moses described the righteousness which is of the law that the man which doeth these things shall live by them.

[27:32] So now the righteousness that comes by the law of Moses how do you get it? by doing the things the law is saying then you get the righteousness but the righteousness in other words having a good position in life you know sometimes you are watching a match or you are at a stadium or somewhere and there's this or sometimes in church you know someone is sitting in front of you with a big head and then you can't see if you are suffering that you don't I'm talking about you you can't see sometimes you have to and what is not nice to is when you move your head then they also move your head but righteousness gives you a right standing so that you can be in line for that blessing it says that what makes you righteous before God okay what makes you he says okay verse 6 now it says but the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise it doesn't do he speaks the righteousness of the Lord does but you know that when you try to do you really can't do it so some of you are trying to do everything to tick so many boxes to look good before God but it really doesn't work by trying to do if you want the tree to be cursed don't try to uproot it you are shaking it you've gone to buy this special sophisticated machine that can uproot trees you're wasting money you cannot put it by it to grow again but when one teacher said no one ate fruit of it again this is what is called homologia homologia speak the word homologia speak the word homologia speak the word now when you speak

[29:37] God's word things begin to answer to you so quickly let me just round this up quickly when Jesus said whatsoever you say to the mountain and you don't doubt it will happen in Romans it says that the righteousness of faith saith okay so is that the righteousness of Romans chapter 10 verse 6 it says that but the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise and he said don't say that who will go and bring him but he said what is it that who will go down and bring up and bring Christ down and all that or bring him from the dead he said you don't need all that verse 8 he says that but what does it say the word is near you even in your mouth the word for your breakthrough is in your mouth it's not in anybody's mouth it's in your mouth someone say the word is in my mouth the word is in my mouth the word is in my mouth in a nutshell if you don't speak

[30:39] God's word things will not go the way they should go for you and things there's no guarantee that things are going to get better the word he said is in your mouth that is the word of faith which we preach that if you shall believe in your heart and confess with your man that Jesus is Lord and God will you shall be saved so there must be believing and there must be speaking that's how it works in life Jesus saw the tree catch the tree it happened they asked him Jesus how did it happen he said have faith in God for anyone whosoever shall say to this mountain be thou removed and be cast into the sea and does not die in his heart but believe that the things whatsoever he says shall have he shall have whatsoever he saith so Jesus showed them that this thing works by saying Genesis chapter 1 and God said verse 3 you know remember Genesis chapter 1 verse 3 then God said verse 6 then God said verse 9 then God said verse 11 then God said verse 14 and God said verse 16 and God said verse 20 and God said verse 24 and God said verse 26 and God said verse 29 and God said verse 31 and God said this world came into existence through speaking it's a word activated system we live in now

[32:01] I dare you when you hear anything you don't want to hear find what God has said and then speak God's word back to it remember God did not give us his word watch this just for our encouragement he said in Hebrews chapter 13 verse 5 and 6 he said that let your life be without covetousness okay Hebrews chapter 13 verse 5 let your life be without covetousness or conversation the same as life be without covetousness and be content with such things as he have for he has said I will never leave you nor forsake you why why did he say that why did he say that so that why I don't hear you why why so God has said so that you can boldly say this is what we call the Greek word for confession is homologia homologia logos is word okay logos is word that's where we get the word logic or biology theology zoology is steady okay reason why things behave like so in the beginning was the word in the beginning was the logos and so logic and logos are from the same root word which means word reason okay now homologia means same speaking same word homologia means same word so you speak what

[33:43] God has said so that you can have what God has said but when God says and you don't say it it doesn't happen and so the lady quoted as the Ezekiel 37 he says that and the Lord told me can these bones leave I said Lord you know he said prophesy to the bones and then I prophesied so when you speak listen don't allow the teachers of your children to be telling you your child can do well they will say it but you too look at them and tell them that's it my child will do well and when they are going to school tell them you do well stop that kind of language stop that kind of language stop it you are destroying his future because the word you are speaking is what you get you shall have whatsoever you say some of you have killed people with your ways you have killed your wife with your ways what kind of woman are you what kind of woman are you what kind of woman are you what kind of woman are you and now you are complaining that

[34:52] God this woman is a devil you have made a devil out of her you are the chief devil maker yes you own a factory devil factory are you getting what I'm saying please parents wives husbands some of you wives have insulted the man out of your husband I thought I would hear someone clapping yes hallelujah please don't say that don't say it sometimes you will feel it most of you are ruining your destinies with your feelings because you are saying things based on your feelings but you don't have to say things based on your feelings if you know you don't say anything based on how you feel because you lose a job you lose elections you lose friendship because your friends you can't be saying that your boss in the interview the math things you can't say it just collect your job and go don't say things because you feel it say things because this is what you expect
