Summary
In one line: On Father's Day: Jesus didn't come mainly to get us to heaven — He came to reveal the Father, the source. Once sonship is settled, daily needs stop being prayer requests.
Fathers
- At the gym, a tough fighter wept when someone wished the men a happy Father's Day — men carry burdens in silence; male suicide is high. Prayer with hands on the men nearby.
- "Mothers nurture, fathers raise" — homes without fathers lack discipline; "society is working to remove fathers; without strong men a nation dies."
- His own fathers: his father died when he was 7–8 and his mother was away for years; he was raised by many — Mr. Onyango, Papa Brian, his uncle Pastor Simon, Bishop Donkor — "a community child; I learned by observation." "Parents are just children trying to figure it out." "Why me? Why not?"
Prophet Jude's word
- God said 400 years of affliction (Genesis 15:13), but it was 430 (Exodus 12:40). Moses came at 40 and Israel didn't recognise him (Acts 7:23-30) — 40 more years of delay. "Prophet Lovy is a sent man to America — receive him or delay your visitation. God sent William Branham and you rejected him." (cf. Luke 19:44). Lovy: "If it were up to me I'd be doing something else."
Knowing the Father
- "I am the way… no man comes to the Father but by Me" (John 14:4-6) isn't mainly about heaven. Scripture shows encounters with the Spirit and the Son (the angel bearing God's name), but never the Father — "no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom He reveals Him" (Matthew 11:27).
- Trinity: Father, Son and Spirit are each fully God; "Father" means source — the Son is eternally begotten of Him and the Spirit proceeds from Him. One divine essence, three persons — hence "holy, holy, holy" (Isaiah 6:3) while we are a holy nation. Oneness doctrine is heresy — "get this wrong and the power of God won't be present." "Your presence is heaven to me" (a TB Joshua church song).
- The real Lord's Prayer is John 17 — "that they may be one in Us" (John 17:21-22); the "Our Father" is a teaching on how to pray.
- Ask the Father in Jesus' name (John 14:13-14) — God answers to reveal Himself, so the Father is glorified in the Son. You're a walking billboard. "You have not because you ask amiss" (James 4:2-3) — prayer is about oneness, not things or binding the devil.
- Intercession of the saints isn't praying to them: angels present our prayers as incense (Revelation 8:3-4); we've come to the spirits of just men made perfect (Hebrews 12:22-23); "God of Abraham… God of Moses" invokes what God promised them. God introduced Himself as "the God of your fathers" (Exodus 3:6) — and nearly killed Moses for not circumcising his son (Exodus 4:24-26). "Know your fathers to receive what God told them."
Sonship
- "Whatever you ask in My name" — whatever. "His will is anything I want — He gives the desires of your heart." You ask for an apartment when He wants to give nations; a raise when He wants to give a business.
- A father hears his child stir in the crib. Jesus: "Father, I know You always hear Me" (John 11:42) — stop fasting and worshipping hard to get His attention. Princess Jasmine outside the palace was treated as a criminal; at home, servants ask what you need. Righteousness is right standing, not just sin; "sin is bad, but Jesus fixed it."
- "After all these things do the Gentiles seek" (Matthew 6:31-33) — sonship eliminates certain prayers. "I don't clothe and feed my children because I love them — it's my duty; love gives beyond duty" (a PlayStation, a vacation for good grades). "I've never asked God for money or a house." Before they call I will answer (Isaiah 65:24).
- You can reject salvation but not lose it — "my child can't lose me as a father."
- Daily needs scale with your vision — one bedroom or ten on an acre; "God's budget is Jesus."
- "If children, then heirs — joint heirs with Christ" (Romans 8:16-17) — Christ = anointed; you're heir to the same anointing. "If possible, even the elect would be deceived" (Matthew 24:24) — i.e. it's impossible.
- God does share His glory — "the earth is full of His glory"; seraphim look at God's glory in man (1 Corinthians 2:7). His niece is treated specially as "the prophet's niece" — a glory she never worked for.
- Honour isn't worship — "if you confuse them, you've never worshipped" (Matthew 15:8).
- He told his sons: "Shadow me and learn what I do — or someone from another country will glorify God with what was yours." "I must be about My Father's business" (Luke 2:49).

Happy Father's Day to all the fathers in the house and online.
Glory be to God.
I want you to know something. I was in the I was at the gym on Saturday after a long time. I haven't worked out for for real for some time. So, I went to the gym and I got some sparring in. It was really fun. After that, we are all like taking our gloves off and all that and one one of the guys that we trained with is a father. He comes in and says, "Guys, happy Father's Day to you all. I know we are the tough guys that nobody checks on us or anything. Happy Father's Day." One of the men who was one of the toughest guys in there started to cry.
Because most don't understand the burden that fathers or men in general carry. We are expected to be strong. We are expected to figure it out. We are expected to have our household in order. We are expected to make sure everybody's destiny works out. There is a lot on men. If there is a man next to you, I just want you to put your right hand on them.
Whether he's a young man, whether he's a father, I want you to put your hand on them.
The suicide rate is very high for men.
Men are suffering
in silence because they cannot burden anybody with what they're going through. Whoever the man is next to you, begin to pray for God's strength for them. Begin to thank God for them. Lift your voice and pray.
Father, we lift your soul
Lift your voice and pray.
God, and we just claim
Lift your voice and pray.
Father, give strength to the men that you have
The men that you have given to lead us into destiny, God, strengthen them.
There in the home.
God, the burdens upon their hearts, we ask that you would lift it. Make grace abound towards them, oh God. Where there is heaviness of mind, God, right now, let peace replace it, oh God. Let strength be their portion, Father. Let calm come to their souls and restoration be the aim for which they have. God, we thank you for their lives. We thank you for their hearts, oh God. We thank you for the aspect of your love that you have placed within them. Now, God, we ask that you would fill them to the overflow. That you would surround them with brotherhood, oh God.
That you would surround them with support and with help, God. With safety and with understanding. Father, that as you have given them to be fathers to us, may you be father unto them. A place that they can rely. A place where they can find refuge and seek help, oh God. We ask, Father, that you would strengthen us to gird them. In Jesus' name.
Hear me by the spirit. The devil is destroying homes because of the lack of the presence of fathers in the house. If you look at statistics, it's clear that boys or children that are raised only with a mother have over 90% chance of ending up bad.
But if there's a father in the home, the chances of them succeeding is also in the 90th percentile. So, mothers are nurturers, but fathers raise. If there's no father in the house, there's no discipline. Some of us who are just by the grace of God, there was no mother or father and we we turned out good, but it's not the norm. That's why the society is working hard to remove fathers from the home because if you don't have strong men, the nation dies. The people are scattered.
If there's a war right now, most men can't even fight. They have made men to become feminine.
The strength of men is gone because there are no fathers in the house. We need to pray that the plan and the agenda of the enemy to remove fathers from the house will fall apart in the name of Jesus. Lift your voice and say, "Father, in the name of Jesus." Every plan to scatter fathers from homes
Let it be changed today.
Let it be reversed today. In the mighty name of Jesus. Lift your voice and begin to pray.
Every intention of darkness
to remove fathers from our homes Let it be canceled today. Let it be changed today, oh God. The spirit of division that would try to take fathers away from their families Let it be canceled right now in the name of Jesus. And Father, may your divine empowerment come to keep them strong, to keep them fortified,
to keep them connected and plugged in to those who love them. Father, let every intention of society to bring separation from fathers and their children be canceled now, oh God. May honor be returned unto them, Father. May their children look upon them with honor, God, and blessing. Father, may their wives or the mothers of their children speak release blessing over them. May we cover them with everything that we have, oh God. May divine enablement be upon them now, God. May systems and protocols be changed in their favor, Father. MAY GLORY AND HONOR BE RESTORED unto them. May strength be returned unto them. May dreams be returned unto them, God. Where they feel defeated, oh God, may they taste victory. May they be known by success, oh God. May their hearts be revived, God. May their desires, destinies, and dreams be revived, God, so that we can walk behind them, holding them up, supporting them, and loving them, oh God. Where they have been left alone, may we rally around them, God. May today be the day they find refuge, community, and camaraderie, oh God. We thank you for fathers. We thank you for brotherhood. We thank you for their hearts, their lives, their minds, and the expression of you, oh God, that they deliver in the earth. Now, mighty God, strengthen them like only you can. Remind them of their identity in you, oh God. Strengthen them, fortify them, God,
and may favor and grace follow them all the days of their lives. We thank you, God.
We thank you, God. We thank you for their growth. We thank you for their strengthening. We thank you for their establishment. We thank you for the success that will touch everything that they put their hands on. We thank you, oh God, that you're blessing every place they plant their feet, oh God. We thank you that you're giving them the language of faith and hope, God.
Revive them today. Revive them today, and we speak life over them. We speak life over them, God. Life to their dreams. Life to their ability to hope. Restore their souls, God, that the life that they live will be the life that you have blessed. The life that they live will be a life worthy of honor, God. And where they have suffered, where they have erred, God, we speak over them
In Jesus' name.
I want to also encourage all those that you may have your father may have transitioned or your father was never in your life. I want you to know God has given you a community of fathers. And also God is your father in heaven, after all.
Amen.
One thing that I had to learn was that parents are just children also who are trying to figure it out. So, if your father or mother didn't get it right, just understand they're just children who are also trying to figure it out. Hallelujah. Isn't that liberating? I want you to know God is your father. I don't my the the the father that raised me are different fathers. It wasn't one man. Because my father went home when I was 7 or 8 years old.
So, I didn't really know I don't have the concept of being at home with a father that you see every I don't know that concept. My mother wasn't around either. Not of any fault of her own, but life just happened. By the time she came back, I was much older. So, I didn't have the privilege of having a dad and mom together. Not because they didn't want to be together.
Life just happened. So, I know what it feels like to know that I always tell people if I could pick up the phone and call them every day, I would call every 30 minutes. Because I know, but the men that God used to raise me like Mr. Onyango here.
This is a father that raised me. Papa Brian over there. Can you show him on the camera, too? These are men that raised me. My uncle Pastor Simon. These are the men that raised me. I was a community child. And all I did was I watched and I learned. Bishop Donkor Apostle Grace. These are fathers that have been in my life. I didn't have one person. I had many people that God used to pour different things into me.
If you don't have your parents, you don't have your father, learn to learn by ob- learn to be a child by observation. Amen.
You are not missing anything. knows why he did what he did. Sometimes we have this idea of woe is me. I always say, if you say, "Lord, why me?" The question is, "Why not?" If God has called you to be great, if he's called you to be a leader, he will put you through things that will make you stronger, better than the usual.
[cheering]
So, you you are path will be different, whether you are man or a woman. So, I am here to encourage you. After all, God is your father and he knows what is best for you. Clap your hands to Jesus.
[applause and music]
Um Prophet Jimmy, you want to give me 2 minutes? I I see like you have something in your heart before I proceed. Quick, quick, quick. Can you give him a mic for me?
Hallelujah. Can you clap your hands for Jesus?
And um may be seated for second. I want to say thank you to prophet for this opportunity. Since yesterday, God gave me a burden in my spirit. I prayed about it. And um I felt that I have to share with you this burden. Are you ready for that?
There is something important that the church, not only the Revelation Nation, but the church in the US, the church, the body of Christ in America, have to understand for time and season.
And the Lord said to me that um if you not pay attention, you will miss something important for this season. Hallelujah. So, I will give some verse and I want just the media to help us and someone to read for us. And we will just receive that word, Genesis.
Genesis chapter 15 verse 13.
Somebody can read for us.
Amen. And he said unto Abraham, know of thy seed that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them. And they shall afflict them 400 years.
400 years. How many years?
400.
This is God telling to his servant, to his friend, Abraham. And we know for sure that God never lies. Always say the truth. And God was accurate, as the prophet taught us on Monday. God was accurate saying that the time of affliction will be 400 years. But look the second verse, Exodus chapter 12 verse 40. Exodus chapter 12 verse 40.
Amen.
40 40 4 0.
40. Okay. Yeah.
Exodus chapter 12. Yes.
Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was 430 years.
There's a problem there. God said to Abraham it will be 400 years. But here there is a delay of 30 years.
Is God a liar? So, what is the problem? What happened for them to get a delay of 30 years the response? And this is a prophetic word for this church and for the church in America. It's Acts Book of Acts chapter 7 verse 23. Chapter 7 verse 23 and we'll read till 25 and we'll get verse 30.
Amen.
Yes, come on.
And when he was full 40 years old it came into his heart to visit his brethren, the children of Israel. And seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him and avenged him that was oppressed and smote the Egyptian. For he supposed his brethren would have understood how that God by his hand would deliver them.
When Moses had 40 years old, he felt the calling of God. He felt the burden to go and to deliver his people. He started walking through his brothers. He considered them his brothers, doing good to them. And he thought that the people would understand him. They would understand that he is the sent man of the season. But they did not understand. Now, go to verse 30, please.
And when 40 years were expired there appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.
Look at this. 40 years later, the angel of God appeared again. Now, a little of math. You put 40 years and you put 430 years. If you subtract 40 years, how many years did we left? 319 years. That means that when the 319 years, 10 years before 400, Moses came, but they did not understand. That brought a delay of 40 years. And then the word of God that was supposed to be fulfilled in 400 years, it delayed to 4 430 years. What? This is the Lord telling the US America. Prophet Lovy is a sent man to your nation.
Amen.
You better understand it. You better receive him. Because if you not receive him, you will delay your visitation for many years. THIS KIND OF PROPHETS COMES AFTER 100 YEARS. God sent William Branham to you. You rejected him. It took a lot of years for Lovy Elias to come. You better understand that. You better receive him. And if you don't, OTHER PEOPLE WILL RECEIVE AND YOU will get delayed. And I thank God for Revelation Nation because you are receiving the prophet and you will not suffer delay in your life. This is the better season for you to UNDERSTAND THAT THE COMING, THE RAISING of the prophet in your nation, it's your deliverance.
It's for your breakthrough. It's for your blessings. SO, BETTER OPEN YOUR YOUR HEART. BETTER RECEIVE him because the Lord Jesus said that you will be scattered because you did not understand the time of your visitation. That means that if you understand now, you will be blessed and you will be elevated. That said the Holy Spirit.
Somebody clap clap for my brother Prophet Jude. I didn't know
Thank you.
You you know um uh the those who are close to me, they know that I avoid to to receive a word, I run. But I thank God for his message because his message is true. I did not bring myself here, he sent me here.
Amen.
Trust me, if it was up to me, I'll be doing something else. Hallelujah.
Hallelujah.
Are you ready for the word of God?
Yes.
Are you sure you're ready?
Yes.
Put your right hand on your head. Say, "Father, in the name of Jesus
Father, in the name of
let the spirit of revelation be upon me.
Let the spirit of revelation be upon
May I see as you see.
May I receive and understand your truth.
That I may be free.
And those around me may be free.
In the mighty name of Jesus.
In the mighty name of
Clap your hands to the king.
John chapter 14 verse 4 to 6.
Now, listen to what the Bible says. He says, "And where I go, you know and the way you know."
Thomas said unto him, "Lord, we know not whether thou goest, and how can we know the way?"
Jesus said unto him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man cometh unto to Father but by me.
Now, I want to guarantee you by the spirit of God you have butchered this scripture.
Mhm. 99.99% of people who have read this scripture, they think Jesus is talking about heaven, but he isn't.
I feel like I'm talking to myself.
You have to understand something about God and his divine nature for you to understand what Jesus is saying. When you look through the scriptures from Genesis chapter 1, it says, "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." But when it's speaking about God, it's talking about our triune God.
The three persons of the Godhead with one divine essence creating. Then it goes on to tell you, "And the spirit of God was hovering over the waters. And God said, If you read throughout scripture, you realize that the revelation of the Holy Spirit is present. The revelation and the encounter with the Son is present, but the encounter of the Father is not present.
I'll say it one more time.
When the angel of the Lord was sent to the children of Israel, you realize that the angel of the Lord was actually the Lord Jesus. The Bible actually tells you, "I have put my name in him. You guys better obey him, or else he will not forgive you." It was scary. They thought they were dealing with an angel, but it was actually the Lord Jesus himself.
You see the spirit of God coming upon the prophets. You can see them receiving the Holy Spirit and becoming powerful, but you don't see an encounter with the Father anywhere.
But when the Lord Jesus came, he did not come to introduce us to God. We already know who God is.
I'm trying to help you understand something. When the Lord Jesus appeared, he did not come to introduce us to the concept of heaven. The concept of heaven was already known. What the Lord Jesus came to do was to open the other dimension of God that we had NO ACCESS TO BECAUSE OF WHAT ADAM and Eve had done.
SO WHEN THE LORD JESUS CAME, ALL HE CAME TO DO HE SAID, "NOBODY KNOWS THE FATHER." NOTICE JESUS WASN'T TALKING ABOUT THE HOLY SPIRIT because the world already knows the Holy Spirit.
I wish you could hear what I'm saying. You see, in the church WE CASUALLY SAY, "GOD IS MY FATHER. GOD IS MY FATHER." BUT YOU DON'T ACTUALLY understand what it means for God to be your Father because this revelation is not known to you. So in your NATURAL MIND YOU JUST SAY, "GOD IS MY FATHER. I'm a child of God." But you say that casually without actually understanding. What does it mean for God to be my Father?
So Jesus comes and says, "Nobody knows the Father except the Son and whom the Son decides to reveal him to."
SO THE PURPOSE OF THE Lord Jesus wasn't technically heaven.
Jesus came to make you know the first person of the Godhead.
I thought I would hear a better clap.
The mission of the whole the whole mission of the Lord Jesus, yes, it was heaven. But that was a restoration of what was already established. But his main objective is for you to know the fullness of God. If you know the Son, you know a part of God, you still don't know God. If you know the Holy Spirit, you still know a portion of God, BUT YOU STILL DON'T KNOW GOD. UNTIL YOU KNOW THE FATHER, THE SON, and the Holy Spirit, you still DON'T KNOW GOD.
SO, WHEN WE ARE WALKING in the world and we are talking about God is my father, God is my father, God is my father. Many I promise you 99% of the people don't truly understand what they are saying. When we read Matthew chapter 6, many believe that it is the Lord's prayer. But that should have never been called the Lord's prayer.
Because that wasn't his prayer. That was how he taught us how to pray. It should have had a different title because I will show you the Lord's prayer. Grab your Bibles. And then we'll start breaking this down. Are you ready? John chapter 17 from verse 21. This is Jesus' prayer. This is the Lord's prayer. This is the real Lord's prayer. Not saying that other one wasn't the Lord's prayer, but he said, "Pray after this manner." He was teaching how to pray, but this wasn't him praying.
Listen to what the Lord Jesus says.
That they they all may be one as though at as thou Father art in me and I in thee that they also may be one in us. That the world may believe that thou has sent me. You cannot be a representative of Jesus if you don't know who SENT JESUS. BECAUSE JESUS WAS SENT TO BRING YOU to him.
THE REASON WHY THERE IS NO POWER IN THE CHURCH IS YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT AUTHORITY is delegated.
You see Jesus or the Son if we should say. I always say our God is triune. Anybody who teaches there is oneness, it is heresy. It is not church tradition. It is wrong. A lot of men of God they love Jesus but they have this wrong. And I promise you if you have this wrong, the power of God will not be present.
If you're functioning with the power of God without knowing this, it may be a different spirit. I'm being real with you. Oh no, I'm being honest.
The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
They are all God. God the Father is truly God. God the Son is truly God. God the Holy Spirit is truly God. If you look at who created, it tells you everything was created through the Son. Then you read other passages, it says the Holy Spirit created everything. Then you look at another passage, it says the Father created everything.
The reality is because when he uses the word God, it means all of them. So it's not wrong, it is accurate. But, what is the difference between the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit? This is church church tradition now. The word Father means source.
Look at your neighbor say the word Father.
The word
Father
means source.
I can't hear you.
The word Father means source.
One more time.
The word Father means source.
That is why men are expected to provide.
Because the moment you are Father, you become our source.
So, everybody expects something from you because the title Father doesn't mean you can conceive. It is more than that. You become a source. Your wife will look up to you. Your children will look up to you. They will expect things from you because the word Father means source.
So, when you look in scripture, according to church tradition, and even in scripture, it says the Father begets the Son eternally. Meaning the Son has always been God, but the source of the Son is the Father.
And the Spirit proceeds from the Father.
So, you realize that the Father is the source, but the three persons make God because the divine essence, because personhood is different from the divine essence. Let me give you a simple example. We are all human beings. So, I am not a unique human I am unique in the sense that the person of Lovy Elias is only one.
But, there are many human beings. We are all human beings. We are all uh children of Adam and Eve. But there's only one Lovie. There's only one Andrew. There's only one Rio. Our person is individual. It's one person.
Just because I'm a man, yes, we are all men, but you will never meet another person like me. So, what separates us is not being human beings. What separates us is what? Personhood. The difference between God and us is God's person is not one person. It is three persons.
So, when you read in the book of Revelation or when the angels are adoring God even in in scriptures, they don't say holy one time. How many times do they say holy? Because they are dressing
[cheering]
applause
But when God spoke holy, he said, "You are a holy nation." He didn't say you are holy holy nation. Because we only have one person. But when we address God, we don't just say, "You are holy." We say, "You are holy holy holy." Why? Because God has three divine persons within the divine essence.
So, Jesus did not come to get us to heaven. Because heaven without encountering God is not heaven at all. There is a song that used to be sung in Prophet T.B. Joshua's church, which I loved. It always says, "Your presence is heaven to me." So, you cannot have a full encounter of heaven without the fullness of God.
You can't. So, listen to what the Lord Jesus is saying, that we may be one with him.
Who? With the Father as he is one with the Father, that the world may believe that he was sent of the Father. Verse 22. AND THE GLORY WHICH THOU HAS GIVEN me I have given them that they may be one even as we are one. Jesus' goal was one thing. You guys need to know the source of everything. YOU STRUGGLE WITH RECEIVING BLESSINGS BECAUSE you don't know how to go to the source.
You struggle with deliverance because you don't know how to go to the source. SO, JESUS CAME and said, "Hey, you can GET ANYTHING YOU WANT from the source, use my name. Because I am giving you an introduction to the well of creation. I'm here to prophesy to you. After today, you will know God as your Father. YOUR DAYS OF SUFFERING ARE OVER. YOUR DAYS OF STRUGGLE ARE OVER. YOU WILL KNOW THAT THERE IS SOMEBODY WHO CARES AND LOVES YOU more than your earthly father could ever care and love you."
Remember, it is the Father that sent Jesus for salvation.
God said, "Who shall I send?" The Son said, "I'll go." They need to know you, Dad.
But in the church, people casually say, "You know, the Father's love, the Father." No, you don't know the Father's love until you know Jesus. And if you don't know Jesus and who he came to introduce you to, then you don't know what the Father's love is. You see, for the church, for them Jesus is everything. It is true.
The Lord Jesus, in him is the fullness of the Godhead, but that shouldn't make you ignorant. That's why you just see people pray They just pray Jesus, you know, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. But Jesus is giving you a protocol. He's saying, "Hey, ask everything in my name."
Our prayer is always addressed to the Father in the name of Jesus because Jesus is taking you to the well that
The Lord Jesus is teaching us how to receive everything. Said, "Ask anything in my name and I will do it. Ask everything in my name. Ask the Father anything and he will do it. The issue is God doesn't want us to be What is the word I'm looking for? He doesn't want us to be ignorant because as a child of God, if you don't understand the systems of heaven, you are already crippled.
Your potential is silenced. Jesus says God wasn't for you to just be filled with the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit came to remind you of the things Jesus has said to you. He will not speak of himself. He will speak of me. Why? Because the mission of Jesus is to introduce you to the Father. Why is he so obsessed with his Father, the will of his Father, to show himself and to reveal himself to you and me?
That is something that you need to ask yourself. Why is this God's obsession?
Why is it that God cares so much for us to know him?
John chapter 14 from verse 13.
Listen to what he says. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do. Jesus did not say if you ask me. He says whatever you will ask in my name, that's what I will do. Meaning of his own accord he does nothing. SO TO MAKE SURE THAT you receive everything, align yourself with the with my father whom I fulfill his will.
Whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I DO THAT THE FATHER may be glorified in the Son. SO WHENEVER YOU'RE ASKING GOD FOR something in the name of Jesus, THEN YOU ARE ALLOWING GOD THE FATHER TO BE GLORIFIED THROUGH THE SON. BECAUSE GOD IS NOT ANSWERING YOU BECAUSE HE WANTS to give you something. God is ANSWERING YOU SO THAT YOU MAY SEE THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. THAT YOU TRULY DISCOVER THAT GOD IS TRUE.
SO GOD ANSWERS PRAYER TO REVEAL HIMSELF.
SO YOU HAVE NEEDS BECAUSE GOD WANTS TO REVEAL You see, IN THE CHURCH WE HAVE MADE NEEDS about the devil.
Let me talk to other churches.
You have been taught that in order for you to receive, bind the devil, rebuke the devil. Listen to what James is saying. He's saying, you don't have because you don't ask. And when you ask, you ask amiss. Your intentions are wrong. Your way of praying is wrong. You say you fear God, well and good, Satan does, too. Why is he saying all these things?
He's telling you your posture is stopping you from receiving because we have made prayer about receiving things, yet prayer is about being one with God.
Father, let those who are receiving this revelation become one with you. Become one with you. Become one with you in THE MIGHTY NAME OF
JESUS.
SO, JESUS is saying he will answer you that the Father may be glorified through the Son. Because when we ask the Father in the name of Jesus, then Jesus fulfilled his mission. So, number one, knowing God as your Father allows you to be able to glorify the Lord Jesus by reason of the Father. So, God is not just giving you stuff.
You are a walking billboard to reveal him to the world.
applause
You are a walking billboard that when people look at you, they say God is great. That should be your testimony. When you walk around, people see you, they say God is good. When you walk around, they say God is great. When they see you, God can do all things.
Amen.
When they watch you, they say, "Man, God is real. Look at God's protection. You look AT GOD'S ELEVATION. LOOK AT GOD'S INCREASE. LOOK AT HOW GOD CAN MAKE A WAY WHERE THERE IS NO WAY." WHEN THEY LOOK AT YOU, IT MUST BE A TESTIMONY OF WHO GOD IS.
YES.
AMEN.
IT IS NOT JUST ABOUT receiving stuff.
It isn't. I realized that long ago that God is doing all these things for himself. He wants people to know him.
So becoming a son, this is what sonship is about.
The children want to to always represent their father properly. In my culture, when the kids mess up, the father blames the mother. Look at your children.
You are just hard headed like your mother.
But when the child does good, that's my son. That's my daughter.
Look at.
But that's what God expects that through us, when people watch us, they can see the works of God displayed through us. So God wants to answer you so that Jesus may be glorified. And Jesus may glorify the Father. And the Holy Spirit through you. So you are on a God mission.
You're not on a financial mission.

Look at verse 14. Go to verse 14.
Verse 14, please.
If you shall ask anything in my name, I will do it.
So, people say I can just go to to God by myself. You don't understand what Jesus came to do. You see, this is why also in the church there's a confusion when they look at church tradition. They don't understand why according to church tradition the church believed in the intercession of the saints.
Mhm. Most people don't understand why they You have to remember, this is a tradition from the apostles who received it from the Lord Jesus. So, here people say, "Ah, you you you you don't need to pray to to Mary. You don't need to pray to this person." First of all, they're not praying to.
That's a completely That's not what is happening. What most people don't even know, angels pray for us, also. Go to the book of Revelations. The Bible says that much incense was given to an angel by God, which was the prayer of the saints, so that he can present it before God. Meaning, what we prayed was enough to get to God, but not enough to be answered. That an angel has to take that prayer and present it before God again FOR OUR SAKE.
ALL THIS IS IN YOUR SCRIPTURES. Is in your scriptures. The apostolic The real apostolic church knows this.
The reason why we don't understand this is because it's like this. If you can get to the Lord by yourself, why do you need me to pray for you?
Why do you call your brother and sister and say, "I need you to join me in prayer?" I thought God can hear you by yourself. What you don't understand is prayers are answered according to your revelation and proximity to God. So, if you come to somebody that has a better revelation of the system of prayer, if they pray for you, because that is righteousness, right standing with God, what it does is it produces what?
Results.

The Bible says you have come unto Mount Zion unto the city of the living God. He described then he goes on to say, "And to spirits of just men made perfect."
Why are we coming to them? Because if I'm praying, you see, you do it all the time and you don't even understand it. To show you how ignorant people are. God of Abraham, why are you saying God of Abraham? I thought he was dead. Why are you mentioning a dead person? You are invoking his intercession based on what God promised him. GOD OF MOSES, WHO PARTS SEAS. SO, YOU'RE ASKING God to do what he did for Moses FOR YOU. SO, YOU'RE SOLICITING prayer from who?
Moses. You are not praying to. You're soliciting because if it didn't matter, you don't mention them. Just talk to God on your own. When God introduced himself to Moses, what did he tell Moses? He didn't just tell him, "I am God." What did he say? "I am the God of your fathers. What I am doing is because I told your fathers and I'm going to do to you because I promised them, not just because of you."
Help me, Jesus. So, God goes around saying, "Hey, you you want to know who I am? I'm the God of your fathers." Now, if you don't know your fathers, it means you receive nothing from God.
So, it is your duty to learn your fathers so that you can get what God told them. That is why you find Moses leaves the presence of God, and the Bible tells you, "And the Lord sought to kill him." Oh, you've never read that? Moses is in the presence of God. God tells him what he's going to do. He sees all these mighty things. He goes home, and the Bible says, "And the Lord sought to kill Moses."
And his wife, Zipporah, takes their firstborn son and circumcises him with a stone, and throws the foreskin at the feet of Moses and says, "You are bloody husband to me. Surely you are." And God was appeased and left. Why? Moses is circumcised because they are under the covenant of Abraham. But, he gives birth to a son who should also be in the same covenant. In his house, if there's a male child, he needs to be circumcised according to the law of God. SO, GOD SEES IT AS A VIOLATION of his law. I told you I'm the God of your fathers.
Have you looked at Have you seen that you're circumcised? Now, you're going to have a son in your house who potentially will continue what I told you without him being circumcised. Are you mocking me? I'm going to take you out. So, his inability to know his fathers almost created a conflict with God. Right now, you have a conflict in receiving what you need to receive because you don't understand God is your father. So, you're praying like a stranger.
You are praying like a heathen because you don't understand that the way God wants to answer you is not the way he answered those who followed Moses. You have been adopted into his house. So, there is an audacity, there is a faith, THERE IS A PRIVILEGE THAT YOU POSSESS
that you can receive anything BECAUSE NOW YOU KNOW HOW TO APPROACH HIM through Jesus.
So, the number one thing is you glorify the Lord Jesus and through the Lord Jesus, the Father is glorified. When you ask anything in his name, he will do it. So, the first privilege of sonship is that whatever you ask, you receive.
He did not say if you ask according to his will.
Whatever Whatever means whatever. A bishop, am I speaking to somebody? I don't know if they can hear me. Thank you. As the bishop said, it's in the book. If somebody ask you, is what you're asking according to will God's will? Yes, his will is anything I want. That is what the Bible says, God will give you your heart's desires.
You are already in his will when you know Jesus who has revealed him.
So, whatever you want from God, God will what? Do it. Because you being in Christ means that you are already fine-tuned to whatever he wants. The Bible says, ask me for the nations. You you're asking for an apartment. You still don't know that God is your father. Can I talk to somebody?
You are still asking God to give you a raise when God wants to give you a business.
You still want to borrow and God wants to make you a lender.
All these things, the way you're asking, is literally based on your revelation of sonship.
The reason why you think God doesn't hear you is because you don't understand how a father looks at his children.
When Sale is asleep in his crib, if he moves an inch, I'm already She will have to tell me, "No, no, no, he's just moving. He's sleeping. Leave him alone." She's awake, too. She's alert. Why are we so sharp to hear him? Because a father is always an eagle over or a mother is always an eagle over his children. How much more for God?
Whether the child is having a bad day or a difficult day, it doesn't change how God responds to his children.
But because you don't know that you're already in sonship, you want to fight for God's attention, yet God's attention is already for you. So, what you're doing is this.
I'm going to worship God really hard so that God can hear me. I'm going to fast really hard for God to hear me. All you needed is to understand if God is my father, and Jesus is the firstborn, and he has brought us into the same relationship he has, then I should know that God has heard me before I pray.
Jesus said, "Father, I know you always hear me." Many of you can't say that.
Maybe God heard me. Maybe I need somebody to help me so that God can hear me. No, you don't know that truth because you still don't understand sonship. So, you are wrestling. Please hear me. You are wrestling with a truth that the Lord Jesus has already accomplished. So, you are living like a different person, like a peasant, yet your father is the king.
If you remember Aladdin, Princess Jasmine escapes the palace. She was treated like a criminal. Aladdin saved her and put her through all these things and looks, they didn't care, they didn't know she was the princess. So, why? She was out of place.
So, if you are a prince or a princess in God's house, but you go to a foreign land where they don't recognize, you don't recognize your authority, it doesn't matter what you demand. That's not your country, that's not your place. You're not going to get anything. But when you are at home,
[cheering and applause]
servants recognize who you are. They are You don't HAVE TO ASK, THEY ASK YOU, "DO YOU NEED ANYTHING? DO YOU WANT WATER? Do you want this? What do you need?" YOU ARE ATTENDED to because you are inside your father's jurisdiction. We have made righteousness only about sin, yet righteousness is about being in right standing, being where God wants you to be mentally, emotionally, and physically.
Sin is the smallest part of our Christian life, but we have blown up sin to be this huge thing, yet it's not as serious as you think. Sin is bad, but Jesus fixed it.
Look at your neighbor, say, Jesus fixed it.
Jesus fixed it.
Number two, look at this scripture. We are almost done. I'm going to let you go and celebrate with the fathers. Matthew chapter 6 from verse 31.
THEREFORE, TAKE NO THOUGHT, SAYING, "What shall we eat? Or what shall we drink? Or wherewith shall we be clothed?
FOR AFTER ALL THESE THINGS DO the Gentiles, the Gentiles are those who don't know God. FOR YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
But seek ye first the kingdom of God and all these righteousness and all things all these things shall be added unto you. Stop right there. You see, we read this verse without the context.
But when you read before, you notice Jesus is saying this because he's trying to tell us if you're asking for money for rent, if you're asking for what you would dress your children, what you will eat, you are displaying that you are heathen.
You are displaying that you don't know God and you're not a son. But if you are a son, you know that Father knows what I need to eat. My Father knows what I need to wear. My Father knows what I need. So, sonship eliminates certain prayer requests.
I will say it one more time time. Sonship eliminates certain prayers.
He's saying, "Don't take any thought. Don't even think about it." What you're going to wear, what you're going to eat, where you're going to stay. Don't you know your father knows that you need these things? If you think on these things, you're like those who don't know him.
SO, GOD EXPECTS YOU TO have a consciousness that God is my father and he knows my needs and I DON'T NEED TO ASK FOR WHAT IS OBVIOUS. You think about if my children had to ask me, "Uh where are we going to stay tonight?"
Uh are we ever going to eat?
We are naked. What shall we be clothed with? That means I am a terrible father.
If I am a good father, even if I don't have millions, I will work like a like a slave to make sure they have shelter, they have clothes because that is my duty. You have to understand this. I don't clothe my children because I love them.
I clothe them, I feed them because it's my duty.
My love for them should give them things that are beyond my duty.
I will say to one more time for those who are in the back.
I don't clothe these guys because I love them. It's my duty. It's my job. I have to do it. Whether they make me upset, whether they make me happy, whether they obey me or disobey me, it is my duty to make sure their daily needs are covered.
That is our standard. Now, based on how they deal with me, I will give them their heart's desires or not. You're failing. Now, you don't get a PlayStation. First of all, take that PlayStation away. You're not getting this right now. If you get these grades, I will give you this. But, what I'm giving him is not his daily needs.
I am giving him things that satisfy his what? His heart, because that's a heart desire. Can we go on vacation? Now, you're failing, bro. When you stop failing, we'll go anywhere in the world you choose. Just get these grades.
So, we have failed that we are asking for daily needs. That is a standard package.
Uh I I don't know if I'm speaking. Maybe I'm preaching to Revelation Nation online.
You see your clap Those who are not clapping, we know. Uh you When we start getting blessed and you are delayed, it's your fault. Because your clapping is evidence of your understanding.
So, comprehend this by the spirit of God.
If God is your father, there are things you never pray for. You know, I have never asked God for money. I've never prayed for a house. I've never prayed for any of these things. I just know if it is a desire, he will cover it. What does the Bible say? Before they pray, before they call, I will answer. While they are still While they are still what?
Speaking, I will what? So, God is not waiting for your words. He's looking at your heart. Your consciousness To be conscious just means to be aware. God wants you to be fully aware of who you are in him. Who you are in him is not just a child, you are his own. God the Father looks at you the way he looks at Jesus.

So, if you panic about your mortgage, you panic about your rent, you panic about what you're going to eat, you panic, it means in you sonship has not been settled yet.
So, imagine if you're struggling in receiving the basic package that doesn't require prayer, how are you going to receive what is beyond the basic package?
No, I want you to be honest with yourself. What God has made a standard that you should have, you can't receive because you don't even know and understand that it is yours. How are you going to receive the billions you're praying for, the business, the elevation? On what basis?
When you are a son, you fall, you know your father will catch you. He may whoop you, discipline you, but he'll still embrace you because you are his. He will still be dealing with you. When you have no sonship, when you make a mistake or you miss it or you sin, you will believe God rejected you because you think God is just your God, but God is no longer God to us. God is dad.
[applause and cheering]
So, my father can't get rid of me.
If I turn out bad, guess what? I'm still stuck with you.
This is why the idea of you can lose your salvation is foolish.
How can my child lose me as a father? Even if I disconnect, I'm still his father. It's not changing anything.
You can reject your salvation, but you can't lose what is not yours.
You can reject salvation. Say, "I don't want you." But to lose it, it's not a toy in your pocket that you can lose. This is eternity.
So, the privilege of being a son is that you don't ask for daily needs anymore. It becomes a knowing that it is yours. What does that mean? For some people, they like bacon in the morning. Some people just want oatmeal in the morning. Maybe for you, your diet requires steak in the morning. Whatever your choice is, that is your daily needs, he has it covered.
For others, they may just want clothes to cover their body. For you, you may be more fashionable than the other one. He said, "Don't worry about what you're going to wear." He said, "Look at Solomon and all his glory. He wasn't dressed like these lilies. How much more for you?" That means that you may like the regular stuff.
I may like the cool stuff. God's condition is whatever you need to cover your body, I am providing it.
[cheering]
So, I don't need to downgrade my taste.
Y'all are not listening to me. I don't need to downgrade my living conditions. Your vision MAY BE ONE BEDROOM, GOD WILL GIVE YOU THAT. MY VISION MAY BE 10 BEDROOMS ON AN acre somewhere, GOD WILL GIVE ME THAT BECAUSE WHATEVER it is that I might want, he will do it.
So, we can't say, "Well, God only does this." No, that's not what he says.
You know, daily needs are different. 10 years ago, my expenses are very different from today.
When I look at my expenses today a month, I'm like, "Hey, God."
These are things I never even imagined that would be possible. I didn't know that your daily needs can be like this.
God doesn't have a budget. His budget is Jesus. And in Jesus, he fulfills all things. Look at your neighbor, say, "I have everything in Jesus."
I have everything in Jesus.
God has given me a blank check.
Clap your hands for the Lord.
Romans chapter 8 verse 16 to 17.
The spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit that we are the children of God. You notice, to be a child of God is not just something you say, it's a conviction.
If you don't have that conviction, the next verse is not for you. I'll say it one more time. If you don't have that conviction the next word is not for you.
Verse 17. And if children then what?
Heirs.
I can't hear you.
Heirs.
AND NOT JUST HEIRS OF GOD.
AND JOINT HEIRS WITH WHO? CHRIST. Stop right there. Let me break this down for you.
An heir is somebody who is inheriting everything from his father. Now, the difference between God and an earthly father is a child may have to wait for the father to die to become king or queen. The difference the concept of an heir to God is not him dying because he cannot die. It's not him retiring because he will never retire.
But the concept of an heir with God is you functioning with him, for him.
As he is eternal, so shall you also function with him. Then I watch this. God is not just saying you are an heir.
An heir is somebody that is already receiving everything that God has. It's yours. But then it goes on to say, "And joint heirs with Christ." Notice he did not say Jesus Christ. He just said Christ. You are an heir of the same anointing.
Because Christ is not Jesus' last name, you know that, right? Christ just means anointed. That is why the Bible says, "In the last days, there shall be many Christs."
It doesn't say there will be many Jesuses. Says there shall be many Christs. Meaning people who will be who people who will claim they carry the oil of sonship.
THAT WHATEVER THEY ASK GOD, HE WILL DO IT. But many of them will be deceivers. Why will they be deceivers? Because the Christ anointing is already on you if you are a son. So they are not introducing something new to you. They may fool the world, but they can't fool you because you already can receive anything from God BECAUSE YOU'RE ALREADY AN
YOU'RE ALREADY AN HEIR.
YOU SEE, THE BIBLE says something interesting. It says, "In the last days, there shall be so much deception that if it were possible, even the very elect will be deceived." You see, when people preach this, they say, "THERE'S SO MUCH DECEPTION. THAT IS WHY THE CHURCH IS FALLING AWAY." NO, NO, NO, NO. The church can't fall away. Listen to what he says.
"If it were possible, the elect will be deceived." Meaning it is impossible for the elect to be deceived. Why can't the elect be deceived? They already are heirs. They already are anointed. They can already get whatever they want from God. SO YOU SHOWING SIGNS DOESN'T IMPRESS ME BECAUSE I HAVE ALREADY been walking in them.
You can't TELL ME GOD WILL GIVE ME SOMETHING NEW. I ALREADY I already received something new. YOU CAN FOOL THEM, BUT YOU CAN'T FOOL ME.
If so BE THAT WE SUFFER WITH HIM. He's not saying you will. He's saying, "Even if we suffer with him, that we You also be glorified together.
So, you are not only an heir, you are an heir to the same anointing separation that Jesus Christ our Lord received. Not only that, you will also be glorified with him. I'm going to add this for you as we are about to pray.
You hear people say, "God will not share his glory. God will not share his glory. God will never share his glory. He will not share his glory with the man." Again, just be a little African, just look at your YouTube, put your hand out, and because they don't know what they're talking about. How can an invisible God be glorified without a man?
Do you know why Jesus became man? So that he can glorify God. The Bible tells you angels are worshipping God. They're saying, "Holy, holy, holy God almighty, the earth is filled with your glory." They didn't say heaven.
Come on.
So, WHEN SOMEBODY TELLS YOU, "THE GLORY IS COMING DOWN." NO, THE glory is already here. When I look at you, I SEE GOD. WHEN I LOOK AT HER, I SEE GOD. WHAT?
THE GLORY IS NOT COMING ANYWHERE. IT IS ALREADY HERE.
BECAUSE THE GLORY IS THE reflection of God. So, angels who have seraphims WHO HAVE EYES ALL OVER their body, it means they can see in dimensions and realms. So, WHEN THEY ARE WORSHIPPING GOD, THEY CAN'T LOOK at him. They cover their faces, but they're looking on earth. Looking at you saying, "They are God God's God. Look at what God is doing.
Look at what God is doing. Look at what God is doing in California. Look at what God is doing in Simi Valley. LOOK AT WHAT GOD IS DOING IN NEW YORK. LOOK AT WHAT THEY ARE WORSHIPING GOD BECAUSE THEY CAN SEE God's glory through man.
1 Corinthians chapter 2 verse 6 says it.
That there is a hidden glory that God hid from the beginning unto our glory. Wait, what? I thought you don't share your glory. No. You are his, so he's not sharing.
You are not another God, you are his child.
IF MY PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLED BY my When my sons go somewhere and they say "Hey, what's your name?" "My name is so-and-so, Elijah." "Like the prophet?" "Yeah." "Wow. YOU LOOK JUST LIKE YOUR DAD." DO YOU KNOW HOW POWERFUL NOTICE, he's enjoying a glory that is not his. He's just a bearer of a name, and he happens to be

My little My little niece in Texas my brother-in-law AJ's daughter and my sister Natalie's child. Nuri gets so many privileges because Uncle Love is prophet.
So, every time the mother or the dad comes in, "So, how's the prophet?" They take extra beautiful care.
Cuz this is the prophet's niece. She's enjoying a glory she never worked for.
May that be your portion. That where they go, they can see Jesus because Jesus is your father.
So you can So don't Listen to me. There's a lot of wrong teaching in the world. When they see people honoring me, they say, "You people worship him." No, that's not worship. It's called honor. Because you don't know what honor is, you assume everything is worship because you've never worshipped in your life.
You know, if you confuse honor and worship, the reality is you've never worshipped God. Because if you think kneeling before a man, honoring a man is the same as worshipping and honoring God, you've never actually worshipped God. Everything you've done is carnal.
Jesus said, "They bow before me with their knees, but they don't bow with their hearts." Meaning me kneeling down before God doesn't require my physical knees. It requires what?
Hallelujah.
God is seeking those who will worship him what? In spirit and in truth. So what I do for God must be in spirit, not just casually physically.
You have such a beautiful inheritance in God. Such an awesome heritage in God.
You should never be in lack. You should never be delayed. You should never struggle. You should always have direction because no father will just leave his child without guidance. The other night I was with with with with my firstborn and and I don't remember if Maro was there also, but I know Sammy was there and these guys were sitting and I was putting them on game.
I was like you guys will be the dumbest guys if you don't understand what I do.
You guys need to be asking me questions. When I go to church shadow me. Understand what I'm doing because guess what? After me it is you. And if you don't take advantage of it, let's say God calls me tomorrow and you have no idea what I do, you will disappear. And somebody else will come from another country who took everything spiritually and never had the proximity and they will glorify God using what was yours that you never knew.
You can't just be getting on jets and you don't know how it happened. Can't just be coming to church and you don't know how it happened. Can't just be going on vacations and you don't know what happened. This is how we are with God. We've never entered into the family business of God. Jesus says, I must be about my father's business. Do you know what your father's business is? Do you know what your father's will is?
You just say father, whatever you want, whatever you say. No, his will is revealed. You are no longer operating from the outskirts. You are within the kingdom now. You are within the household now.
