Part 1: The Law of Faith by Apostle Selman

Part 2: The Mission Of The Church by Apostle Selman 

I told us that the manifestation of God’s word in the life of an individual in the life of a community a business a nation like Ghana does not just depend on the love of God.

It doesn’t just depend on his desire to see his word come to pass. It it depends on our understanding our understanding of the dynamics.

There are principles that connect to and lead to the manifestation of the things that have been spoken.

The Bible says in Luke 1:45, “Blessed is she that believes.” It says, “For unto her there shall be a performance, a manifestation of the things that she had believed.”

It also says in John chapter one, “The word became flesh.”

We considered that yesterday that even though we have been blessed with all blessings in spiritual places, but they are in Christ, and we need them here in this realm here and now. And that we must understand the spiritual technology by which we transport realities that are finished in Christ. so that they are available for us here and now.

And we took the first key, the law of faith. Do you remember we said faith is the midwife between prophecy and manifestation.

Every time God speaks to you, it will require a thorough understanding of Bible faith to allow that which was spoken to be made manifest.

God desires to do everything he said. But it depends on your understanding of faith.

And we defined faith yesterday number one as the depth of your persuasion or your conviction about God, the integrity of his person.

We also define faith as the name given to the action of obedience you take as proof that you believe God and as proof that you believe in his word.

I told you Bible faith is predicated upon two attributes of God:

• Number one, his integrity. Still remember that God is not a man that he should lie, nor the son of man that he should repent. If he speaks, he sustains the integrity, the moral wherewithal to make his word good.
• And then number two, we said his ability, faith is predicated, Bible faith is predicated upon these two attributes of God. His integrity that he does not change and his ability.

Now there are many people in our world who have integrity but they may not have the wherewithal to bring to pass that which they intend to bring to pass. Others have the wherewithal but they do not have the moral uprightness, the integrity. God has both integrity and ability.

I gave you a few keys:

• One of them being a revelation of God’s integrity and ability.
• Key number two that in order to release your faith for a performance.

I told you that faith is vision dependent. Vision dependent. Vision dependent. It matters how you see.

It matters what you see. He says, “I will stand upon my watch and I will set myself upon the Torah so that I will see what the Lord will say and I will know how to answer when I am reproved.”

It’s important that we have a vision, a vision that is derived from scripture and a vision that is consistent with the will of God.

The assignment of faith is not to activate our lusts and our appetites. When God gives us the liberty to release our faith, it is with respect to his will and his respect to his plans for our lives.

Jeremiah 29:11 says, “I know the thoughts I think towards you, said the Lord. They are thoughts of peace and not of evil to bring you a future and an expected end.”

So the assignment of faith is not to manipulate God to make manifest just anything you desire. No, your desire must be consistent with the will of God. It must be consistent with the word of God. Praise the name of the Lord.

• Number three, Faith depends on an understanding of the demands, your action of obedience that will commit God to perform.

See, remember, knowing what God has said is not enough to bring it to pass.

You must know the participatory conditions connected to what God has said. And these with all due respect I think is where the Pentecostal charismatic circle have missed it.

We have a thorough knowledge of the exceeding great and precious promises but we seldom take the time to understand the conditions connected to the manifestation of the promise.

So we say things like I shall not die and then we stop there. But there are conditions connected to it. If you speak death you will die. If you walk in dishonor you will die. If you are lazy and you’re not about being productive.

We say things like, “Oh, he who does not work should not eat.” It’s a medical advice. It’s a medical advice. If you are not prepared to walk, then don’t eat. It’s a real medical advice because if you keep eating without walking, you will die.

So the Bible says, for instance, a diligent hand shall be made fat. And so a man who is lazy and expecting prosperity and wealth simply because there are other systems of advantage like favor and the leverage of relationships, that man will most likely be disappointed. He will be a disappointed Christian. A lazy man will give excuses. He will not sow by reason of the weather and then he will beg in harvest.

So knowing what God has said is only one side to the equation. It’s important to press to know what responsibility Bible faith always commits upon the believer a dimension of responsibility for its performance for its manifestation.

Any Christian experience that makes God entirely responsible for the outcomes of your life. It is said to be an irresponsible faith practice. There is always what you must do.

The rich young ruler comes to Jesus and he says, “Good master, what do I need to do to be saved?” That was the voice of responsibility speaking. I know that there’s something I need to do. And unfortunately, for salvation, there’s nothing you do except to receive. But he came with a consciousness. No wonder he was a rich young ruler.

Rich young ruler.

Now those are three descriptions that are seldom found in one person. You are rich, you have time and you have influence. Hallelujah.

Rich young ruler comes to Jesus and says good master what do I need to do? And so we discuss all of this

• And remember I told you as a fourth key that you need to wait patience and thanksgiving. Still remember that when all is said and done, you must obtain the grace and the staying power to wait.

I tell you this, prophecy is like pregnancy. The day you take in is not the day you give birth. But it does not mean it is not working.

Every woman will agree that you can be one month, two month pregnant like I said yesterday and you don’t need to do anything more. Just wait.

There’s a timing connected to it. Sometimes we confuse process because of factors like speed and so we want to rush God.

God gives speed but he does not rush people.

The difference between an object that goes up and comes down versus a tree that grows is that it is connected to the root while it grows. When you jump up, you will come down, but when you grow up, you will stay up.

There, the there your prayer for speed should never override the discipline of process. If Joseph became a prime minister from the well, he would not understand the value of leadership.

Sometimes God subjects you through processes that compel you to learn the value of process. It helps you to appreciate the throne when you get there.

That’s the reason why people who inherit things unnecessarily become careless because they have no history of process. They didn’t wait. Everything happened overnight. They usually will be reckless, careless and they live without a sense of consequence.

So today let’s look at the other part I promised you that will not stay long.

So let’s get straight to the business of tonight. I want to show you by the grace of God the second element that is responsible for the performance of God’s word in the life of an individual, a business, a government, a nation.

My teachings do not revolve around the walls of church alone. I believe in being apostolic in my communication. So whether you are a political leader like we have many tonight or a business person, a senior executive, you should find a point of application from the thoughts that I communicate. If we’re together, say amen. Amen. Hallelujah.

Let’s go to Mark 16 and verse 17. I’m going to be teaching tonight as a second key on the power of belief systems.

The power of belief systems. This is the second key that controls the performance, the manifestation of the word of God in the life of an individual.

This is a very profound scripture. The Bible says there are signs that follow believing. That means I don’t need to ask you what you believe. All I need to do is to look at your life and whatever you truly believe sustains a magnetic power and it will draw certain signs, certain physical evidences to your life.

You may have heard me teach that success is not what you pursue. You never get success by pursuing it. Success is what you attract by who you become.

When you find yourself in pursuit of success, you have already missed the strategy. It was supposed to come to you in honor to who you are becoming, not just what you do.

Who you become has a greater impact in making you successful than what you do.

Joseph did many things, but it was not what he did that really brought him to the palace. It was who he had become. loving, patient, enduring. Then what he did added to it like an icing to the cake.

So the Bible says, these signs

•  Failure is a sign. It follows a kind of believing.
• Prosperity is a sign. It follows a kind of believing.
• Weakness is a sign. It follows a kind of believing.
• Curses are signs. They follow a kind of believing.
• Blessings are signs. They follow a kind of believing.
• Influence is a sign. It follows a kind of believing.
• Favor is a sign. It follows a kind of believing.
• A beggarly life is a sign. It follows a kind of believing.

Now what we try to do in the body of Christ is to dispel the signs without changing the believing that brought them in the first place. So we try to drive away poverty.

We try to drive away curses. We try to drive away demons. We try to drive away hatred. But they are signs and instruction was given them to the realm of the spirit.

Anybody who has disbelief, follow them. They don’t follow you. They follow your believing.

There are signs that can follow a nation’s believing. Africa has signs that are following our believing. There are signs that follow the believing of the west.

Businesses have signs that follow them. If the business is declining, regardless the individual issues, there are signs that are following the believing.

The name of that believing is called your belief system or your ideology.

For most people, we do not know that your ideology controls over 80% of the manifestation of your results.

Let me define for you, therefore a mindset:

• A mindset or a belief system is a way of thinking, a way of assessment, a paradigm, a perspective.
• A mindset or a belief system is a sustained way of thinking. It’s a paradigm. It’s a viewpoint. It’s a manner of assessment. assessing things, assessing people, assessing life.

A number of us here did fine arts whether in elementary school or college. And there’s a part of fine arts called perspective. You remember perspective helps you to capture the information that are within the angle that is your viewpoint.

And so if you ask me to do a drawing of this beautiful, you know, this this place right now, there are certain details you don’t expect to see in my drawing because of my limitation in scope, but they are there. I may not capture the restrooms. I don’t know where they are. I may not capture the gate. I cannot see it from here. So I can only give you an interpretation based on the limitation of my viewpoint. Praise the name of the Lord.

Everybody leads with respect to your belief system. Parents raise children not with respect to their intention. Your intention is not what produces your result. It is your belief system.

You can intend well but if you believe wrong, your results will honor not your intention but your belief system.

There are preachers who desire to raise mighty men. But the belief system, the software with which they train those people cannot raise mighty men.

It’s not being an evil person is that a wrong programming is producing victims.

• Irresponsibility is a mindset.
• Discipline is a mindset is beyond a trait.
• Godliness is a mindset.
• Corruption is a mindset.
• Endurance is a mindset.
• Entitlement is a mindset.

So when you want to see the performance of God’s word in your life, you have not done justice to your understanding if you do not address the issue of paradigms, belief systems, and mindsets.

In Genesis chapter 11, very profound scripture, the Bible tells us that there was a man called Nimrod, the son of Kush, he intended to build a Torah whose top will reach the heavens. Now, I’m not there for a theological debate whether it was a spiritual house or physical house. We just know there was a building somewhere.

Verse 5. The Bible says Nimrod only proposed to them go to come let us make bricks for mortar and build a city whose top will reach the heavens. Remember he had not started any actual building. He was selling them an idea. But watch what was happening in the realm of the spirit.

The Bible says as he was proposing to them that idea in the realm of the spirit a structure was rising and God was seeing it. Nothing physical had started on ground. But because their minds were incubating that seed, there was reality that was framing in the spirit.

The Bible says the Lord came down to see the city and the tower which the children of men builded because their mindsets have received it. It was already done in the spirit.

Verse six. And the Lord said, “Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language, and this they begin to do.” They were about to start it physically, but mentally it was complete.

Everything in life is built twice. Your belief system is an architect. Your belief system is a builder. It will first build it and then you build it physically.

Destroy anything physical if it is still in your mind as a belief system you did not lose.

And this they begin to do hear God’s verdict concerning a people.

Now you have to realize that the Holy Spirit was not mentioned here. Demon spirits were not mentioned here. It was just the power of belief systems and the creative imagination of a people. The Holy Ghost was not mentioned here. Demon spirits were not mentioned here. And yet God said the only way I can stop them is to restrain them to confuse their language because this they have imagined to do.

This is God speaking that based on their mentality and their belief system nothing. Now nothing will be restrained from them which they have imagined to do when it has to do with the subject of belief system.

This is where science, psychology and religion all agree that the quality of a man’s life will be a direct and a messless reflection of the summation of your belief systems. It is true. It is true. Hallelujah.

A quick experiment. How many of you have given clothes? With all due respect, and not to mock them, but how many of you have given clothes to maybe you’re doing some charity and you gave a nice shirt, maybe a shirt you’ve worn for a long time. You gave it to some maybe um some guard person or some young boy somewhere as a gift. Give that boy two weeks with the same clothes. You find out it gets done, it gets dirty. What taught the clothes? the mindset that wore it. The same you wore that cloth for one year, for two years, you kept it neat, you ironed it, now you gave it over to someone else. And in two weeks, his mindset began to translate that cloth.

If you learn what I’m teaching you tonight and the Holy Ghost empowers you, you become limitless. Nothing will sustain the power to bring you down.

Let me speak to every young person in Ghana. If you understand this, I am telling you, regardless your background, you can rise to become a blessing in this nation. Now you know why God gave Joseph a dream. He was working on his belief system. He kept a pictorial representation of his destiny.

And nothing that Joseph went through sustained the power to erode that mindset. He eventually is someone learning now.

Now listen to me. Mindsets and belief systems are gateways. They are doorways. It is the authorized channel through which the Holy Ghost finds expression in your life and through which demon spirits find expression in your life.

Africa, hear me again. Your mindset is a doorway. Your belief system is a gateway. It is the official gateway through which the Holy Ghost comes into your life. It is the official gateway through which demon spirits come into your life.

When you are oppressed by demons, it’s not just that they veto your life and come in. No, they study your belief system and create a strategy around the loopholes in your understanding. That’s what gives them the advantage over your life.

So the Bible says no weapon fashioned. Weapons are fashion. They use the loophole in your understanding. Who is learning tonight?

Mindsets are doorways. They are gateways into your life and into your destiny. There’s what we call a loser’s mentality. It is true.

The word loser is not an insult. It’s a description of a kind of person. Hallelujah. a losers mentality, a set of beliefs that program you to failure.

You may be a good person having a losers mentality, you will still fail.

Africa is a good continent, but because we have embraced a losers mentality that is an aggregate of history, hatred, anger, jealousy, it is producing a messless outcome. We hate it but we are forced to live in that reality. The signs following what we believe.

There are many parents for instance who want a great home a great life but they are not willing to sustain the mindset and the belief system of love of respect.

If you do not have the mindset connected to victory you will remain a failure regardless what scripture you quote.

So here’s how the Bible puts it. Philippians 2:5 it says let this mind did you ever read that in scripture you don’t need the life of God alone you can have the life of God without the mind of Christ you will still fail listen to me the life of God in you is powered by the mind of Christ

If you have the life of Christ without the mindset of victory you will be a believer in Christ who will never manifest that victory Jesus came as the word but he submitted himself at age 12 at the temple. What do you think he was doing when Satan came to him? He said it is written not I think not it’s my opinion it is written. It is written.

The quality of a man’s life is directly connected to his mindset. Proverbs 23:7, the quality of a man’s life is directly connected to his mindset.

The Bible says, for as he thinkketh in his heart, it didn’t say so he will become, so he already is.

One of the ways I can know your future is by a prophetic advantage.

But one of the ways I can also know your future is by examining your belief systems.

I can write your future not predicting. I can write it with surgical precision. If you can give me access to your belief system, it is true.

It is based on this belief system that we have designed applications today based on social engineering.

They have found out that men think in a certain way and they have manipulated it and created all kinds of value chains and value systems because they have found out that as a people there is a way we think.

As a continent there is a way we think. As tribes there’s a way we think.  That data has been mathematically aggregated and it’s been used to produce profit.

The thinking of a man has become a tool of profit. Is someone learning tonight?

Don’t tell me I will change. Let me see what is feeding your mindset. I can paint your picture tomorrow.

Now, let me tell you this ladies and gentlemen. I’ve studied a bit of demonology and the concept of deliverance and the operation of demon spirit. I will tell you this.

One of the major assignments of spirits is not to oppress you, is to manipulate your belief system.

When they manipulate your belief system, your failure becomes on autopilot. They don’t even need to participate in your failure again. They have programmed you already. That’s what we call a stronghold.

A stronghold is a faulty belief system that has been empowered by the presence of demon spirits to keep the victim perpetually in that state.

To get a man fully delivered, there are three levels:

• Number one, there is the casting out of the demon, the spirit that oppresses the person.
• But the second level of deliverance is called deliverance through transformation.

A recalibration of your mindset, your belief system.

So deliverance opens the door for the spirit to go out. But transformation closes the door so that it cannot come in.

So you can cast out a demon and he goes and leave the door open.

The Bible tells you the spirit still calls you his house. He’s still going to come and test you again. And if he finds the same belief system that gave it entrance, it will come back again and call others.

When God wants to help a man, he shortens the distance between you and the information that can transform your belief.

Let me tell you ladies and gentlemen, transformation is a real miracle. Understanding is a real miracle. An altering of your belief system for good is a real miracle.

Many of the things that we are praying for are also looking for you, but not this version of you. The money you are looking for is looking for you, but not this version of you. It keeps coming to you and going back because there was a version of you it was instructed to find.

There is a mentality that when you have you cannot be poor. Even if you give away all your money that mindset has an instruction in the spirit that the possessor of this belief system should not beg. This is true.

There is a belief system that when you have it’s impossible to be without helpers because that belief system has an instruction.

All belief systems have a code in the realm of the spirit that activate the consequence of receiving them.

There is a belief system that when you have it also has an instruction in the realm of the spirit. Fight the possessor. When you receive it, you receive the battles that come with that belief system.

The Bible says, “He that sows to the flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption, but he that sows to the spirit shall of the spirit reap life everlasting.” Am I right on that?

So when Satan wants to destroy you, he will lure you through all kinds of pressures. And it is largely a belief system thing.

You have not changed a man if you do not change his belief system. Change his clothes. Leave the same belief system. You wasted your time.

Watch this. If I go to medical school right now, at the end of six years, will my voice necessarily change? Will my height necessarily change? Will I necessarily become fatter or thinner significantly? No. What will really change?

Now, let me give you another example. Ghana.

Can I tell you the truth? Your generation will name you after your mindset, not your desire. You are born to look like your parents, but you will leave this earth looking like your decisions and looking like your mindset.

Let me say that again. You are born looking like your parents. thanks to genetics, fair, dark, whatever else in between. But let me assure you that the quality of your life and by the time you are transiting, you will not look like your parents alone.

You will look like a summation of your decisions which will be a reflection of your belief systems. Hallelujah.

When you train leaders, what do you train? You transfer a software to their minds. Then you call the product you have trained with that software a leader. Am I right?

When you teach students, what are you transferring? So the lecturer never makes active contact. He may not even touch his students. Yet at the end of five years, they are changed because he use words to transfer thoughts. It became a stronghold in their minds. And a system accredited them that you have a belief system enough to add doctor to your name, to add architect to your name.

Generational courses are powered by generational belief systems.

So you hear someone say like father like son I tell you where it came from. Father’s mindset transferred to son formally or informally.

Life does not revolve around what you desire. It revolves around the belief system.

Hear me ladies and gentlemen. Your belief system is an instruction to the realm of the spirit to treat you a certain way.

These were the signs that came with you. Failure, poverty, defeat, a corrupt mind, an irresponsible mind as a young man. But as the word kept coming, something started happening to your belief system. Let me show you how you are living. Wait behind.

As soon as your mind changes, the signs change. Follow me. This is how you are going home tonight. You are leaving the signs behind.

You are picking up victory. What you are hearing? You are learning that life works on seed and seed time and harvest. You are making resolutions. The Holy Ghost is powering your mind. There are new signs following you.

By tomorrow, someone will call you and say, “I just felt like blessing you.” No, sir. The sign of favor has now come into your life. It is true.

The way of love rather than wickedness. Hallelujah. Listen to me.

I’m happy there are a lot of government people here. With all due respect, and not to insult your pedigree, this is one of the ways you change the youth. It is a mentality thing. The programs must directly affect their thinking.

Welfare is great but it cannot take away the signs. There needs to be a recalibration. The signs are mercilessly loyal to your belief. They will not go with time. They will go with transformation.

So the Bible says let this mind be in you. Are you seeing that Jesus did not just win because he was the son of God. He won because there was an understanding.

For instance, he knew that he was from above. For instance, he knew he was above the system.

When Satan came to him and said, “Use your power for personal gain. You have the power. Turn stones to bread.” And he said, “No, the assignment is not about me.”

I want to present to you two kinds of signs. It is up to you to choose tonight. You can choose to remain the way it has been and watch your innocent children grow and inherit those signs because you cannot give what you do not have.

The way you know it is how you will teach it. And if it’s the way of losers, you will also teach it that way innocently.

Now you understand what it means by I set before you life and death. He’s not just talking about life as an abstract concept.

I set before you a belief system that gives you life and a belief system that gives you death. I can only advise you, choose life. To choose life means to make a resolution, not by the strength of the flesh, a word compliant resolution.

Many years ago, when God began to show me the things he would do through my life across the nations, I was excited, but I knew, thankfully speaking, learning from veterans of wisdom like the late Dr. Miles Monroe, I knew that my destiny did not just depend on prophecy, that I was going to talk to leaders and nations, and my current level of mindset was not palace compliant. I had a heart for Jesus, but I had a mindset that reflected Egypt. So, I needed to begin to outsource materials as proof that I believe God was truly taking me there.

Let me advise someone after this conference, you may need to shelf going to a boutique for a while and go to a library. You are dressing your body and leaving your mind naked. You need to calm down and begin to invest in your transformation.

Let me tell you the truth. A major part of the answers to your prayer are waiting for growth to come to you. It was never supposed to be a prayer request.

Most answers to prayer are growth dependent. There is a version of you that must become for the answer to arrive. It will keep hanging in the realm of the spirit.

You will have visions of yourself as a pastor leading millions of people. But if you have the mindset of a loser.

• Do you have the patience to manage the complexities of so many people? Or are you just interested in the name?
• Do you have the forbearance?
• Do you have the intelligence?
• Do you understand the protocol of the palace?
• Do you know how to speak to kings or do you just know how to speak to your contemporaries?

It is not a gift. It is acquired by diligence as a commitment that you want a performance in your life. I didn’t come here to lie to you to deceive you.

I’m not just going to prophesy performance. It is a responsibility. Seeing a performance in your life is a call for a ruthless responsibility to re-examine your belief systems.

Now don’t be embarrassed if the signs are not pleasant. Just take responsibility and start sowing again.

Start cutting down trees. Trees that reflect the seeds you sowed yesterday years.

I set before you life and death as a mentality.

There is a mentality that if a pastor has you can never cross 500 members no matter how much you pray. It’s not a demonic attack. They are taking advantage of a mindset already prepared.

Influence is a sign that follows a certain belief system. When you become selfless, when you become a servant leader, can I tell you the truth?

With all due respect, if everybody hates you, something is wrong with you. Because even Satan is not hated by everybody. There are terrorists that have wives. As terrorists, they went to propose to a lady and her parents agreed. So, everybody cannot hate you. It’s a mentality.

Saying everybody hates me is a sign that you need an upgrade. You just need one right person to like you.

Everybody did not need to like Joseph. If the king likes you, you become a prime minister.

Can I tell you this? Visionary leaders are men and women who are strong in their convictions and they don’t fall prey to the sentiments of people. No.

As a leader, you are the one who drives people to the place of destiny. And 90% the journey, they don’t know where they are going. Like a pilot, you don’t see your distance. 90%. They will not understand, but they will trust you later. That is why you are the leader.

This is my assignment that while you are praying and say Lord increase me increase is saying I have heard you but I cannot come to you.

There is an instruction based on your belief that says anywhere you see him run away from him. So we can lay hands on you prophetically and as the anointing comes you sabotage the potential of the anointing.

Someone learning when his excellency your president stepped in I watched the way you stood. I watched the way our father the archbishop honored him. Honor is a sign that follows a mentality because the Bible says honor all men. It says honor the king.

I hope you still like me. Respect for elders is a mentality. There are signs that follow it.

So when you find a generation of young people not doing well, it’s not just a demonic thing. The devil program dishonor, they fight everybody. They insult everybody from pastors to business people.

A young man who’s not built anything, insults everybody, commentators, and then they don’t rise. And they wonder why? Because it is a seed. And the harvest is always greater than the seed.

Young people, can I tell you the truth? For as long as you keep insulting those who are ahead of you, you are sending an instruction to the realm of the spirit to stop you from entering that result. It is true. It is true. This is not some church gibberish. It’s been proven religion, science, psychology. You will never enter into a dimension you resent. Hallelujah.

I tell you this, when we celebrate men, separate it from human worship, separate it from demonic manipulation. Let me tell you what you are celebrating. You are celebrating aggregated years of sacrifice, discipline, staying power, consistency, a testimonial of endurance. That’s what you are celebrating. Hallelujah. Praise the name of the Lord.

You find a single mom without the assistance of a man raising five, six children and you dare to pass comments. She was just lucky. You think so? Lucky. And all the children, one is a CEO, one is a professor. No, there is a grace, but there is a mindset.

So, the wife of the sons of the prophet had a problem. The problem was insufficiency. They were about to pick her children. Everybody please listen. Remember the signs follow your believing.

The man was a prophet and papa he still died. It is an anomaly for a prophet because prophets were people who had insight to wisdom.

And the Bible says there is oil and treasure to be desired in the dwelling of the wise. But a foolish man will spend it up. The man died even though he had prophetic advantage. And the wife, The children her future about to be taken. She runs to the prophet and says, “I’m in trouble.”

And the man said, “Are you sure your husband was a prophet?” Yes, sir. If he was a prophet, go back home and check. There is something in that house because if he’s wise, there must be oil and there must be treasure. And even when treasure is spent, the oil is still there. She says there’s nothing except now listen. I hope you know that while they were conversing, the oil was hearing them and the oil was saying I am not small. It is the mindset holding me.

The vessel was the reason for the smallness of the oil. She didn’t need more oil. She needed a an expansion. The prophet said, “I found the solution. Leave oil. Go and borrow vessels. Borrow not a few.”

I see why you cannot cross 100,000 Ghana cities because your mindset has an instruction that any amount beyond that it should treat it as a mistake in your life and it recalibrates your finances till it comes back to the level of your belief.

That’s why blessing you also depends on your mindset to retain it. You can find a man who’s collecting another person’s one year’s worth of salary in one month and he will still go back to beg. The reason is because an instruction is on his belief system. A waster.

The mindset of wastage to prove that you are making it. And you find out that some genius staff will build their homes and the senior executives don’t have homes. It’s a mindset. is not a salary issue.

• Poverty is largely a mindset, not the absence of resources. Hallelujah.
• Religious extremism is a mindset, a belief system that when you cause mayhem, when you do whatever it is, it becomes an advocacy, a defense of your faith. It’s a mindset.

Ladies and gentlemen, please hear me. A leverage is an advantage only if your mindset can retain it.

Coming from a family with a wealthy father, wealthy mother, influential person, it is only an advantage if you have the mindset to retain that leverage.

You want to see a performance in your life. You don’t change the signs by driving them. Let me tell you what most of you are doing.

This is what you need to change the word of God. Word compliant materials recalibrating your spiritual understanding.

Pray in the spirit for one minute. Hallelujah. In Jesus name.

I’m proposing to you four belief systems. There are many. Your victory is an aggregate of many superior belief systems. But allow me ladies and gentlemen to propose for you four that if you imbibe tonight, you have set yourself on a course to a life of extraordinary performance and victory:

• Number one, the first belief system that I want to sell to you is that you must be conscious of your positional advantage in Christ and your oneness with Christ.

You must be conscious and stay conscious of your positional advantage and your oneness with Christ. It must become a mindset and a stronghold.

There’s no sermon that will ever preach me into believing that I am not one with Christ. I know that I’m one with Christ. I know that I’ve been exalted with him far above principalities and powers. I am not a victim. I cannot think a victim. I have the mentality of a winner.

I’m proposing to you particularly because this is a Christian gathering. Your victory is predicated upon this foundation, the knowledge of your oneness. Regardless what your family, you know, your history, you have been called out of every tribe, every tongue, and every nation, but you must believe it. My question is, do you believe it?

• Number two. Your life will eventually be an expression of your belief systems, your philosophies and your ideas.

Your life will eventually be an expression of your belief systems. An expression of your belief systems.

Your mindset more than your condition is what determines your true state. Your life will be an expression of your beliefs, your philosophies, your ideas.

• The third mindset. Without consistent decisions and actions, life and destiny remains stagnant.

Without consistent decisions and actions, life and destiny remains stagnant. I know things will change.

Ask the man at Bethesda. The first day he went there, he did not think he will stay 5 months, but he stayed 38 years.

Look at me. Time does not change anything. Decisions. Time only reveals the quality of your decisions.

Waiting for tomorrow to change your life is an investment that will end up being a waste.

Here’s how we say it in Nigeria. One day go better. stories. No sir, time does not change anything. Time reveals the quality of your decisions.

So for someone on hearing me, you need to begin to take steps right now. Your actions and your decisions will move you forward. Without consistent decisions and actions, life and destiny remain stagnant.

• Number 4. Challenges are not unusual. I’m giving you a winner’s mentality. Challenges are not unusual and can always be surmounted.

Ghana, hear me. Africa, hear me. Nigeria, hear me. Kenya, hear me. It is nothing to be embarrassed about that we have challenges. It is not unusual.

Champions don’t run away from challenges. They roll their sleeves and they fight with honor.

You came from a family full of curses. Don’t run. Fight. Someone shout fight.

Say it like you’re serious. Say fight. Don’t complain and say there’s no employment. Take it as a challenge and say in the name of Jesus, I will create jobs in my lifetime. I will employ 10,000 people.

Don’t be part of the bandwagon complaining and waiting others to build your future for you. Someone shout fight. Challenges are not unusual.

Apostle, we’ve been married for 5 years, but it looks like we don’t have a child. We are trying to hide it. People are calling us names. Don’t hide anything. Fight your battles with honor. Those who mock you will be the witnesses when you obtain your trophy. Fight. Fight. Fight.

This is a prophetic word for someone. I don’t know which of the words will land on your spirit. But you must carry a belief system.

Someone needs to go back and say this this trend of poverty. I’m no longer ashamed. My father may be a carpenter. My mother may be a roadside seller. I’ve been calling them my uncles and my aunties. I will tell the world they are my parents. And I will begin to change the narrative again. Say fight. Hallelujah.

The devil is trying to destroy your marriage. Fight. Fight, sir. Destroy your prayer life. Fight.

Man of God, you are seeing an attack on your ministry. Don’t sit down discussing it around. Don’t be ashamed of it. You were betrayed. You were, yes, I understand. But roll on your sleeves.

Take on your priestly regalia and say, “I will fight my battles with honor. I will fight while they laugh. I will fight while they commend. I will fight while they do the things they do. At the end of it, when I win, they will become my witnesses.  Hallelujah.

When Jesus was on his way to the cross, he didn’t care what you thought about him. If you like, call him whatever. How can a savior who raised the dead be carrying this wood and not save himself. He left you to your ignorance while you commend and he was busy about going to call God.

Can I tell you this? Save yourself the headache of explaining the process to everybody. No sir, no sir. I’m telling you, learn this as a leadership principle.

Carry people along but you need to be courageous to press towards a future.

You see that those who find you most times it is very usual for men to persecute their saviors. So when you call yourself a savior be ready to carry the cross. They will say thank you for saving us but in the meantime be ready to be misunderstood. Do you have the courage to be misunderstood while you rise?

• Number 5. The next mentality I want you to have. This is the world of men. You succeed based on the relationships you have.

Oh, please listen to me. This world is the world of men.

Who hates you does not matter, but who likes you matters. If you fight the king and he hates you, you will go to jail. I can tell you this.

We live in a world where people say, “I don’t need any man. I just need God alone.” Please be wise. Edit your understanding.

God is almighty. But this is the world of men. When God wants to help you, he shortens the distance between you and a man he has assigned to help you.

When Satan wants to frustrate you, he elongates the distance between you and a helper. This is the world of men. Do not forget it. Some of you are CEOs right now. Your destiny helper is seated right here.

Listen to me. If you do not understand human relations principles, you can be gifted, but you will be staunted. One man in anger to your misbehavior can sign and say, “Don’t help this man.” And everybody loyal to him will follow suit. And while you are there bragging, I know God will do it. You will be surprised how life will punish you. Unbelievers understand this.

You never find me dishonor people who have capacity. Even when I speak truth, I speak truth in love. Because your advancement is not just God dependent. It is man dependent.

The vision is the spirit and the bride say come. If the spirit says come and there is no man on earth to echo come you will remain there. I tell you this.

Difficult things become easy when you have the leverage of relationships. Your prayer should tonight should be Lord I pray that you will raise men to help me. And then your prayer should be when the men come may I not destroy them through the carelessness of discernment and dishonor.

My life today is not just a product of the grace of God alone, I can tell you. It is a product of the endorsement of gatekeepers. A man who likes you, he can say, “No, this is a young man doing well. Listen to him. Open up doors.”

When things are hard, it is not all a demonic attack. It is because you do not understand men as keys. They are keys. Hallelujah.

A man who is a captain over 50s, over 100, there are some men you don’t fight. Even if there are enemies, you don’t fight them. There are some battles you don’t fight. You ask God to give you favor.

He said when a man’s ways pleases the Lord, he makes even his enemies to be at peace.

Let me tell you the truth, believers. I’m giving you wisdom as we wrap up. Not every battle is for your fighting. Make sure you choose your battles wisely. You can stand and fight the fight that brings you down.

If you see Golaith, fight. But David, if you see Saul, don’t fight. Don’t fight. Don’t fight. Don’t fight. Did you hear what I just said? If you see Golaith, fight him. That’s a battle for you. Your victory is connected to it. But if you cease tall, don’t fight.

Don’t let the foolishness of your armor bearer push you to fight because you will be fighting the Lord’s anointed who is receiving wisdom.

Can I tell you this, ladies and gentlemen? Learn the law of honor. You can earn a living practicing honor.

There’s nothing I know that closes the gates of a man’s advancement like dishonor. Dishonor to God, dishonor to men, dishonor to systems. My goodness, men are gatekeepers.

One person can mean it on your letter. Some of you here have piles of contracts. Don’t go around being a nuisance to people with an attitude of dishonor. You forget their birthdays. You forget special occasions. You see unbelievers do that.

Many of you have heard me preach. What will make a billionaire come to celebrate another billionaire’s 2-year-old child’s birthday? Is the child his child? Is he his mate? Is he his business partner? Is the wisdom of Egypt?

But many believers do not understand honor. Hallelujah. I never see greatness and I wait for them to give me something. No. No.

Every great man’s need is his point of contact. Don’t ask them for access. Invest in their lives. Don’t go around chasing people and say you are rich. You are my uncle. He’s not entitled. He doesn’t owe you anything at all. Don’t harass wealthy people. Invest in their lives.

One day get up and wash their car. And while you are washing their car, they saying, “Young man, what are you?” I say, “I’m just connecting by faith. I respect your diligence. I respect your integrity. I came to tap into that grace. This is how it works in the kingdom.

You will never see me call the name of a man of God, the name of a ministry to insult, to tear down. I won’t do that. Don’t join the foolishness of people and pay the price and bring a curse on yourself and your children. My apologies. I’m a bit hard. It’s out of love. Huh? I want you to have a performance. We’re wrapping up. Hallelujah.

Listen, let me teach you a secret God taught me. My goodness, I wish we had time. But let me teach you a secret. Look at this. Look at this. Let me have your attention.

There are times the relationship between you and a great person is so the distance in terms of achievement is so wide. The great man does not need anything from you. Let me teach you how to relate with greatness at that level.

Wherever you cannot bring value to the table, bring gratitude and honor. It will balance it up.

Every time you cannot bring value, bring gratitude and honor.

There are times God will grant you access to greatness. The truth is they don’t need anything from you. In fact, you are like an extra luggage. Water that relationship with gratitude.

He gives you 10,000 CDs. Don’t send the text and say, “Thank you, sir. You have closed the door for the next time.” Compose a text with the same passion you used to beg for the money. Don’t don’t use a 10page text begging for money and one word thanks. You have closed the door. That’s not gratitude. This thing is on me.

Now I give you an experiment. After today’s service, I’m giving you take this as an instruction. business people write the names of the top five or 10 people who have made active contribution to your life. Don’t wait for Christmas. They know you are pretending. Send it this night and say, “I went to church and I was taught the value of relationships. I recall 12 years ago. It is because of your contribution that I am where I am today. This is me coming again after 10 years to say thank you.” Watch what happens. I show you a secret. CEO, gather your people tomorrow and tell them, listen, I just want to take 5 minutes before you start your work to say thank you to every one of you. We are driving this company together. I appreciate your zeal, your commitment, your resilience, and I want you to know that this is shared success for all of us. God bless you. Watch what happens to them.

They will have a passion and a level of jealousy over your business beyond salary. Husband, try it for your wife this night. Don’t call my name. Don’t call my name. When you are doing it, don’t call my name. Just say you had someone so that whatever happens, I’m not to blame. Don’t call my name. I will be gone by then. Don’t call my name. But do it. Don’t say I married her. It is her responsibility to cook. No. Say thank you. Wife same to your husband.

Sons look let me tell you thanksgiving being grateful is an elevator. It’s not a ladder. It’s an elevator. It will lift you in one moment. Let me give you one more.

Now you know success is not a mistake. So that you are not just shouting amen I receive. You are receiving intelligence. Intelligence that is pragmatic and applicable in business in ministry. You should come to church and live wiser. This is how to change nations.

Now write this please. Who you become as you walk with God is by far greater than what you acquire.

Please write it down. Who you become as you walk with God is by far greater than what you acquire. If all you bring to the table are your acquisitions, cars, houses, then you did not get much.

Who you become by reason of your experiences is by far greater I’m telling you by far greater than what you acquire.

Show me a man who did not have the privilege to build so much but he became a better expression of love, a better expression of integrity, a better expression of honesty. I show you a noble man indeed.

Anybody can acquire, but it takes a malleable heart to be transformed.

Who you become as you walk with God is of greater value than what you acquire. Let me give Oh my God. All right.

Write this down. The only real assets you have at the end of your life, write it down.

There are only three real assets. I don’t care what kind of business you are involved with.

At the end of your life, there are only three real assets:

• Number one, your relationship with God.
• Number two, your peace.
• Number three, your sense of fulfillment. That is the only real asset.

At the end of your life, I assure you acquisitions alone will frustrate you.

Many people have hung themselves with billions in their account.

Your relationship with God, your peace, your fulfillment, anything that fights your relationship with God is too expensive a battle for you to fight, leave it alone.

Anything that threatens your peace, is too expensive for you to afford, leave it alone. Anything that will fight a sense of prosperity and fulfillment, leave it alone.

These three things, don’t trade your relationship with God for anything and anyone. It’s not worth it. Don’t trade your peace for anything and anyone.

It is better to have little and be able to sleep than to have plenty and die from starvation of sleep.

There are people today who will take about a handful of drugs to take one hour of sleep. I’m not being sarcastic and I pray God will show mercy but it’s not worth it.

Sometimes people call me and say apostle you travel around you are doing so much. I say me when I’m walking I walk. When I sleep I lie down like a baby. I didn’t die for any man’s sin. I am an advocate of the one who died. It’s not my face that on the cross. I won’t do for you what Jesus has done for you. I love you and I will give you my best, but that’s it. It’s an emergency. We have the police. We have the judicial system. We have the military.

Pastors, let me give you a ministry advice. Make up your mind to live long. Make up your mind. This doubles as politicians and all. Do your best, but please desire to live long.

This world of men, they will kill you, bury you and say here lies the body of so so and so. I’m not saying be selfish, but please don’t starve yourself from sleep. If you are tired, sleep. Jesus slept. It is spiritual to sleep. Hallelujah.

We’re about to stand. Look at me. Look at me. Let me balance it. Only sleep on your seventh day. If you sleep, God did not rest on the first day, not on the second day. If you are sleeping on the second day, wake up in the name of Jesus. If you are sleeping on the third day, wake up in the name of Jesus. If you are a young man and you are sleeping the sleep of an old man, wake up in Jesus name.

Father in the name of Jesus. Every stronghold, every belief system programming failure, programming poverty, programming weakness, granting access to demon spirits in churches, in family, in government. We come against it in the name of Jesus. We cast every high thing, every imagination, inherited belief systems that have become a blockade, a stumbling block in Ghana, in Nigeria, across families, across institutions. We pray oh God for an emergence of light, a replacement of wrong ideas, wrong value systems. In Jesus name we pray. Hallelujah.

I feel led in my spirit. Can we pray for the youth in Ghana in one minute? I like you to pray. Every attack on the mindset of youths, making them to act in a certain way that leads to defeat, affecting the GDP, affecting the economy. In the name of Jesus, we pray that there will be a campaign of transformative ideas from church to church, from school to school, from institution to institution. Open your mouth, clap your hands, and pray in the name of Jesus. Pray for the youth in Ghana. They will not fail. They will not fail.

Mention the regions in Ghana. We bind every spirit. The spirit of irresponsibility, the spirit of poverty, the spirit of entitlement, the spirit of corruption, drugs, violence, any kind of vice, we bind it and we cast it. Come on now, pray. Pray for every church. Pray for every pastor that you become a contributor to nation building through the scripture-based ideas that come from your pullpit. That they will lift and not bring down. That they will not deceive. They will position the young people for an exceptional life. Not by giving empty wishes, by methodically showing them the way to glory.

One minute we are praying. We are praying in Jesus name we pray. In Jesus name we pray.

Can I give you one more prayer? You are going to pray for everyone who occupies any significant position in Ghana, not just government, business leaders, pastors, anyone in the position of leadership, we’re going to pray, Father, for the sake of those they lead, work upon their understanding, give them a superior belief system so that they make decisions and they lead out of a heart that is governed by the fear of God, posterity And conscience.

Open your mouth and pray. We are praying for every leader. Church leaders, political leaders, academic leaders, someone is praying.

We decree and we declare, let there be a recalibration. The spirit of servantthood beyond material gain, transformative leadership, servant leadership beyond acquisitions that Ghana will go from glory to glory through the quality and the dexterity of the leaders that drive it economically, judicially, religiously, and so on and so forth. In Jesus name we pray.

Let me make a final prayer around my constituency. Let’s pray again. That the light of God will rest upon every pulpit in Ghana.

Listen, When you give members empty wishes that are not based on the intelligence of scripture, eventually they will fight you. They will be angry. Prophesy over them. But teach them the strategies of a winner. Then you prophesy on it.

A lot of work needs to be done on our pullpits. And I say our I include myself in it. You cannot raise people by giving them empty shadow wishes. The faith life should not be mocked. It should be a communication of a responsible approach that brings godliness, nation building, a sense of responsibility.

Nobody should sit under our leaders, church leaders and become more foolish after the grace. You should be wiser when you come to church.

Can we sow that seed for one minute over the church in Ghana? Please lift your voice and cry. Help every preacher. Help every preacher in the name of Jesus Christ. In Jesus name we pray. In Jesus name we pray.

My conscience will not give me rest if I don’t do the altar call. Please look up. Just keep your offerings for one minute. Let’s receive. So take the offering. I want to give someone an opportunity. Please listen to me.

Everyone, lend me your attention. Minimize movement. In a gathering such as this, there are always men and women who receive that prompting by the spirit to make it right with Jesus. And I believe there are a number of them here tonight on hearing me speak particularly about the things that have come from family generation to generation.

I believe that there are men and women here who are saying, “Apostle, if you will give me a minute, even though we’re out of time, I am willing to come. I’m looking for one sincere person. Wherever you are, I want to count one to five. Give me the honor tonight as a final function to lead you to this Jesus. The one who died to save you. The one who’s ready to give you a new beginning. Doesn’t matter what you have done or what you’ve not done. As I count one to five, leave your seat if you are coming from behind. Begin to run. I count one to five. Please boldly make your way to the front. I see a few people coming. God bless you. I begin my counting now. One. Let’s honor them as they come. Two. If you are coming, run, run, run, run. Leave your seat and come Ghana. Are you celebrating salvation? Let’s give Jesus praise. Three, your coming means you are ready for a new beginning, your coming means regardless how your past has been, you are ready to come to the cross.

The Bible says we should come boldly before the throne of grace. Four. God bless you, my sister. I see you coming. God bless you, my brother. I see you coming. Some of you are coming to make this decision on behalf of your children, born or unborn. Come, keep clapping. Someone else is coming. God bless you. God bless you. God bless you. God bless you. Hallelujah.

I want to say thank you to all of you my dear brothers and sisters. Thank you for the courage to come stand here tonight. I believe that this night will be one you will not forget in a hurry in the name of Jesus.

For those of you who are watching whether on dominion television or on social media, any of the platforms, we’re making the altar call right now and you need to make it right with Jesus. Join these our beloved brothers and sisters as I lead them in making their confession that leads to salvation.

Would you lift your right hand high above your head? Say this as loud and as clear as you can. This is unto Jesus. Say, “Lord Jesus again.” Lord Jesus, tonight I have heard your word. I declare that I love you with all my heart. Tonight I make a decision to accept and receive you as Savior, as Lord, and as King of my life. I declare that the power of sin, Satan, hell, and the grave is broken over my life. From tonight, I’m a child of God, washed by the blood of the lamb. I live my life loving Jesus, knowing him, and serving him forever. Amen.

With your hands still lifted, Father, thank you. These ones, the Bible declares, “As many who will come to you, you will in no wise cast away. These ones have come declaring your lordship over their lives. I decree and declare by the power that raised Christ from the dead, that upon your profession of faith, I declare your sins forgiven. I call you bonafide recipients of the life of God. From tonight you go forward ever and backward never in Jesus name we pray. Please look to my right that be your left from where you are standing.

There are counselors who are willing to receive you. Have a word and a prayer with you very quickly. Thereafter you return back to your seat. Let’s honor them as they go. God bless you. God bless you. God bless you.

Now we’re ready for the offerings. Please bring out your offerings. Let me encourage you to give. This is good ground and particularly for a night like this when you hear the word of God and it’s blessed you. One of the cultures of the kingdom if taught well is to sew by faith into that word. Hallelujah. Void of manipulation and sentiments. It is a very potent put your seeds together.

Any and all kinds of seeds you are sewing into the life of our father the archbishop. Make it clear. I believe the finance department. Please put your seeds together. Thanksgiving seeds, your worship offering, your sacrifice, any kind of giving whatsoever. Please stand so that I speak a blessing over it. And then you are free to drop your offerings.

For those who are giving electronically, you look to your screens. You find the details there as may be if you need and they will guide you should you need further guidance.

Father, we thank you for the honor of giving. Thank you because you gave us first. You gave us Jesus your very best. It’s an honor to gratitude, responsibility, and love. We are to receive our giving. And I speak over every giver. The hand that gives will never go down. You will never go down because you gave. I declare wisdom upon you. I declare blessings upon the works of your hands, divine strategies and direction. You will enjoy favor from God and favor from men. I pray that God name of Jesus Christ, the Lord bless you, the Lord increase you in Jesus name.

Ghana, one more time, I want to say thank you for receiving me action chapel impact 2025. Thank you. Truly honored.

An apostle is a relational person. [Applause] He has value for relationship and that is that is the link and that is the thing that keeps me and him going. He’s a relational person. So I want to thank God for you. Want to celebrate you. Don’t change. Don’t change. Don’t even try it. Hallelujah. Put your hands together and celebrate. Apostle and my pulpit will always be yours.

Always. You can you can preach for anybody. You can come to Ghana. But when you come to Ghana, this is your house. This is your house. This is your father’s house. You can preach for anybody, but nobody in Ghana will love you like we love you. Come on. Do we Am I Am I speaking the truth?

Please stand on your feet quickly. We have a man who is not just a president but but a man that has compassion and you can feel his humanity. He’s not like I said he and the wife Lordina. I don’t know how God put the two of them together because most times you find the man is mean and the woman is nice or the woman is nice and the man is mean for whatever reason.

But these two people are so different and it’s just amazing how they intertwine. I don’t know how God made it but they are real human beings. Can we thank God for that? And and also they are very relational people. I mean, it’s not because he’s here but it doesn’t matter where you meet him, where you see him. He’s just the way he is. whether he’s in opposition or he’s president, he’s who he is. He doesn’t change.

You know, somebody said something very not good about him when he was in the position and he and I talked about it and when he won the election, we had a dinner and the person came around.

Now we had talked about the person and the person knew what he had said that the president had heard it but when he saw the person he just went out of his way to hug him and oh chal it’s been a long time to and the guy came to me and said what kind of a man is this and I said what do you mean he said but he heard what I said about him I didn’t say I said some very bad things about him and do you see the way he embraced me and hugged me and everything. And the truth of the matter is that he was not pretending. That is who he is.

It’s a good place to put your hands together and to thank God for him. He’s he’s not vindictive. And and Lordina is the same. They are not vindictive people. They are real human being. And and and I think we are very blessed as a nation because we have one president who was born after independence. This president was born after independence. So it’s a prophetic sign of a new era. All the others were born before independence. This one was born after independence.

Ladies and gentlemen, pleasure is mine to bring to the microphone one of the finest leaders and president not just in Ghana but in Africa. Mr. President John Rammani Mahama, please show him some love. And I love it. Thank you very much. And I’m going to follow in this footprint.

Because there was a difficult battle ahead of us.

And when Apostle preached and we went through the evening, some things aligned. There was a divine alignment and I left impact very confident that we were going to win the election. And so a year after we are here to seek further alignment And this time is not alignment that we achieve victory in elections.

It’s alignment that the responsibility that God has given us, we are able to bear that responsibility and make life better for the people of Ghana.

After apostles spoke, Papa said, “What a word indeed. What a word. And it’s difficult speaking after a man like that. But let me tell you what happened.

When papa announced impact, a letter came to my office and said I should choose the day I’ll attend. And my office wrote back and said I’ll come on Monday. And so later I spoke to papa and I said oh papa I’m supposed to come to you on Monday. He said, “Yeah, but if you come on Monday, your friend, Apostle Joshua Selman, is not preaching on Monday.” So I asked, “When is he preaching?” And papa told me the days and I said, “I’ll be here on Thursday.” No, because he just doesn’t preach the word. He relates it to our practical realities. I mean when he was preaching I felt personally like he was talking to me.

He said let your success define you and that success will find you because of who you are and not what you did. And it happens. You see two people they have the same amount of money. They’re selling the same goods but one prospers and one doesn’t. And he related it to our mindset and the signals that follow us.

There are people who are angry. There are people who hate. There are people who envy. And so based on your mindset, those are the signs that will follow you. And he demonstrated it practically. And so if honesty, if favor, if faith, if happiness, if victory are the signs that follow you, you’ll be successful. And so it’s not being aggressive for success. It is having the right alignment of signs behind you that will make you successful.

And while he was talking, the thought of Matthew 25 came into my mind. And in Matthew 25, you have the parable of the talents. And so the three servants were given the same amount of money and the master traveled.

Their mindset was the result the master came back and met. What happened? One gave his master the talents with profit. The other gave his master the same amount of talents that he left him. And what did the third do? He, his master banished him because he was such a foolish servant. And so our mindsets relate not only to our lives and our families. And he said Africa don’t be upset.

And I understood why he said Africa don’t be upset because there are nations that are great. We go there, we admire them, but they are great because of their mindset. You go to Korea, you admire Korea and say, “How did Korea that had the same GDP as Ghana today come where it is and Ghana is still where we are?” It’s a mindset of the people. They believe that their nation can be great. And so in everything they do, they work towards that greatness.

Unfortunately, years of cynicism have affected our mindset not only in Ghana but in Africa. And we believe that whatever we do, we are destined for poverty. And I hear people say, why did we even get independence? We should have just stayed and the white man will continue to colonize us. But there are people who have that mindset. And so that person is never ever going to do anything to prove our forbears who want independence for us right because he believes that it’s help is hopeless.

We can’t do anything to change our circumstances. And that mindset translates into their own lives. Because if you feel helpless that you cannot do anything to change the circumstances of your nation, then that same helplessness will make you unable to change the fortunes of your own life.

I believe positively that Ghana is made for greatness. If all of us will develop that positive mindset that we can make this nation the greatest country in Africa, it will happen.

Apostle used recalibrate three times. He said there must be a recalibration. There must be a recalibration of the mindset. It’s only when you recalibrate the mindset that the negative signs that are following you would leave you and be replaced by positive signs.

Now, if you look at synonyms for recalibrate, one of those synonyms in school, our English teachers taught us synonyms and antonyms. So synonyms are words that are similar to that word and antonyms are words that are opposite to the word you’re using.

And one of the synonyms of recalibrate is what? Reset. So when we say reset agenda, it involves a recalibration of our mindset, it is a reprogramming. For those of you who go on the computer, when the computer gets corrupted and it freezes, you have to reset. Press the reset button.

So in Ghana, let’s press that reset button together. It doesn’t take only the leader’s vision. It takes the majority of us sharing the same mindset and sharing in the leader vision for us to be able to achieve what we want to achieve.

So Apostle Salman, God bless you. And as for the papa of the house and lady Rosa, we are family. And when papa was talking, he stopped at a certain point when he was talking about how you expect a husband to be and a wife to be and all that. And um he always marvels. He says, “But how come you are the man and you’re so calm and humble and your wife Lordina is rather the, you know, aggressive, pushy one.

But I’ll tell you a story just to end this. Time is not on our side. I’ve told this story before. Some people have heard it. We celebrated our 30th uh anniversary, wedding anniversary.” And no no this was 5 years ago or how many years ago we celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary and we found ourselves in our pastor’s office and then as we were talking we said oh 30 years of marriage haven’t we done well and lordina was particularly waxing lyrical oh I’ve done so well you know in this marriage but for me this marriage would not have lasted I am the one who has tolerated this man you know and she kept at it And I was a little foolish boy at the time.

So I was arguing with her. I said, “Oh no, if it’s not my patience and tolerance, this marriage would have collapsed long ago.” And so we had an argument back and forth. And we left all of us, you know, holding to our idea and not uh talking too much to each other.

And then my pastor said, “Why do you argue?” He says, “When a woman holds that view, there’s no way you can ever change it. So there’s no need to argue.” And then it was like a movie. 5 years later, we’re in the same pastor’s office. And Lordina said exactly the same thing since 35 years of marriage.

Look at us. I am the one responsible for the survival of this marriage. And I remembered what our pastor said. And I said, “Yes, my wife. You was you are so beautiful but for you this marriage would have ended. I mean a man like me who would want to marry me? Who would want to keep me? I know what happened the climax. What tea did you drink this morning?

And so let me thank you very very much this evening. It’s it is the standard you expect when you come for impact.

And I wouldn’t say this is extraordinary because every impact where our dear brother Apostle Joshua Selman comes is as exciting and as beautiful as this. And so we thank God for today. We thank God for Apostle Selman. We thank God for Papa. We thank God for Lady Rosa and the leadership of the Action Faith Ministries. Thank you very much. God richly bless you. All right.
