RCCG SEPTEMBER, 2019 HOLY GHOST SERVICE – THEME: LIFTED INTO GLORY – TALK 1: MINISTERING: DEACON DANIEL OLAWANDE

(PASTOR AT RCCG, LIVING SEED CHURCH, IKORODU – THE AFTERNOON CHURCH).

DATE: 6TH SEPTEMBER, 2019

BIBLE TEXT: EXODUS 33:13-23

Let somebody shout Hallelujah!

Can you lift your hands wherever you are to the King of kings; the Lord of lords. Just say something Good to Him. Just worship His Majesty.

Lord we worship You; we give You all the Praise.

Just worship Jesus! just worship Jesus!! Just worship Jesus!!!: Just say something sweet to Him. He is my Lover; He is my Helper; He is my Comforter.

He is the Lifter of my Head.

Lord we worship Your Name this evening. We give You all the Praise. We bless Your Name.

Lord, we say take Control. Take Glory – Take the Glory of this Service.

Bless us, teach us, be with us and I vow not to take the Glory because it belong to You in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

Hallelujah! Can you celebrate Jesus with a clap offering tonight.

I want to thank God for this privilege given me tonight to Minister on this Exalted Altar.

I want to appreciate my father in the Lord – daddy E.A. Adeboye and my mother in the Lord for this privilege given to us to be a blessing.

Thank you! We will not take this Platform for granted.

And I appreciate all our fathers in faith who had supported our father and our mothers who had supported our father and our mother; the Lord will Increase you in the Name of Jesus.

Tonight, am asked to bring a short Word Titled: ‘Lifted into Glory’ before my father comes up tonight.

Anytime a topic is released, the first question is to know the mind of the father for that topic.

So, I began to ask the Holy Ghost tonight: ‘Why did You give my father this topic?’

And He said to me: ‘There are two (2) possibilities’ –

There are many but two (2) out of many about the topic: ‘Lifted into Glory’.

1. If the theme means ‘Lifted into Glory’; it simply means Glory is a location that I can enter.

Because the word ‘into’ is a preposition – It means ‘Come inside something’.

So if the topic is: ‘Lifted into Glory’; it means Glory is a House that can house me. Glory is a Location that can accommodate me.

If I am lifted into the Glory, it means am coming into a New House.

1. If the theme is ‘Lifted into Glory’; it means to come into that House is a Possibility.

It means it is possible that you come into that House.

Can I Prophecy over one million (1,000,000) plus people connected tonight. Wherever you are, I say you are coming into that Location called GLORY.

Oh Lord, wherever You find the loudest amen, I say come into that Location called GLORY.

EXODUS 33:13-23

1. Now, therefore I have found Grace in thy side, show me now thy Way. That I may know thee, that I may find Grace in thy sight: and consider that this Nation is thy people.
2. And he said, My Presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.
3. And he said unto him, if thy Presence go not with me, carry us not up hence.
4. For wherein shall it be known here that I and thy people have found Grace in thy sight? Is it not in that thou goest with us? So shall we be separated, I and thy people, from all the people that are upon the face of the Earth.
5. And the Lord said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken: for thou hast found Grace in my sight, and I know thee by name.
6. And he said, I beseech thee, show me thy Glory.

(The Hebrew word for ‘show’ in that place is ‘ra’, it means come into an experience; be lifted into a reality just like this topic. So Moses said ‘Can You Lift me into Glory?’)

1. And he said, (Church, please follow this Scripture. Moses said ‘Father show me Your Glory’.

Look at the response of God. I thought God will just Lift him into Glory but He said) I will make all my Goodness pass before thee.

(What is the connectivity between GLORY and GOODNESS? Somebody say one).

No 2, He said and I will Proclaim the Name of the Lord before thee. (Somebody say two, He said) and will be Gracious to whom I will be Gracious and will show Mercy on him I will show Mercy. (Somebody say three)

1. And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.

He said ‘Show me Your Glory’. God said ‘I will make my Goodness pass before thee’. He said ‘I will Proclaim my Name before thee’. ‘I will be Gracious and show Mercy to you and you can’t see My Face’.

He was asking for Glory. God gave him four (4) definitions of Glory. He was asking ‘Father, show me Your Glory’.

God said ‘You don’t understand what you are asking for’. Let me explain what this Glory means.

1. He said ‘This Glory is My GOODNESS’.
2. He said ‘This Glory has a NAME’.
3. He said ‘This Glory is a Custodian of GRACE and MERCY’.
4. He said ‘This Glory is My FACE’.

He didn’t stop there. Show me the next verse. Verse 21 – “And the Lord said, Behold, there is a Place by me, (we are gradually understanding what He means) and thou shall stand upon a Rock:

1. And it shall come to pass, while my Glory passeth by, (That means Glory can walk. Glory has Goodness – number one (1) Glory has a Name – number two (2). Glory is full of Grace and Mercy – number three (3). Glory is the Face of the Lord – number four (4).
2. Glory can WALK. That means Glory is not a thing, it is a being.

That means the Glory we going to be Lifted to is not a thing that will happen to you. It is a person that you become.

Because He has a Face. This Glory can walk. He is a being.

Follow me, we are coming, follow me.

Next verse!

1. And I will take away mine Hand, and thou shalt see my back parts; (Show me verse 22 again! Show me verse 22 again!! He said: ‘And the Lord said to Moses, and it shall come to pass, while My Glory passeth by, I will put thee in a clef of the rock and I will cover thee by My Hand while I pass by.’

That means it is God that is the Glory that is Passing.

Show me the next verse, please: But my face shall not be seen.

The issue is he was asking for Glory. God said ‘Okay, I have defined This Thing to you but guess what, you can’t see my face, you can only see my back’.

So, Glory began to walk before Moses and Moses saw the back of Glory but couldn’t see the face of Glory.

But what did he see? What did the back Produce?

Moses was not there when God created Heaven and Earth, how did he know?

Bible says ‘Moses wrote Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy’.

How did Moses know what happened in The Garden of Eden?

When he saw the back, he saw the Past.

When God passed, he saw Adam, he saw Eve, he saw Garden of Eden.

He saw Abraham, he saw Noah, he saw all of them. He saw the Back of God. He saw what God did in the Past.

What Moses saw, Moses was Lifted into the Past of God and by the time he was coming down, everybody couldn’t behold his face.

But I saw something in my scripture Haggai 2:9, He said: ‘The Glory of the latter shall be Greater than that of the Former’.

If Moses saw the Back, I will see the Face.

Because He said ‘No man can see My Face and live. Moses could not see the Face, he only saw the Back of God.

By the time he saw the Back of God, he saw the Past of God.

But there is somebody here tonight that can say: ‘God You said the Glory of the Latter shall be Greater than that of the Former’.

I can see the Face, I am not looking for what Moses had, I an deeper and bigger than Moses. I am not looking for what Moses experienced.

Can You show me something Deeper than Moses.

When we say Lifted into Glory, we mean Lifted into a Person.

Which person?

I am not interested in the Past. My name is not Moses. I am interested in the Face.

Now, a Prophecy came in the book of Isaiah 60:1, He said: ‘Arise and shine, for your Light has come and the Glory of the Lord is risen upon thee’.

Excuse me, God said: ‘You can’t see my face and live’ but He is telling me the Glory is risen upon me.

Moses saw the Back but what Moses saw as Back is coming upon me – That was a Prophecy.

He said ‘Darkness shall cover the Earth and Gross Darkness’.

He said ‘But the Lord shall arise upon thee and His Glory shall be seen upon thee’.

He told Moses, ‘You can’t see My Face and live’ but told me ‘The Glory is risen upon thee’.

I am not looking for what Moses had, I am bigger and better than Moses.

Let me explain to you. Church, now follow. You said this Glory is a Person; You said this Glory has a Face; You said this Glory has a Name; You said this Glory can Walk.

Can You show us from the New Testament if this thing is True because while the Old Testament is the explanation of what will happen in the New Testament.

You use The New Testament to understand The Old Testament.

1. He said ‘My Goodness shall Pass before thee.

Who has Goodness in the New Testament?

Act 10:38, how God Anointed Jesus Christ of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with Power who went about doing Good.

He said: ‘My Goodness shall Pass before thee’.

Who has Goodness?

Shout it! – Who has Goodness? Who has Goodness?

He said ‘Moses, you are not permitted to see the Face because He has not yet arrived’.

‘There is a generation that will see the Face because He will come in their Day’.

1. I will Proclaim the Name before thee.

Let’s see somebody who has a Name – Philippians 2:9-11.

Let’s see somebody who has a Name to confirm who God was talking about here – He said: ‘And God has highly Exalted Him and given Him a Name.’ (Oh! He said I will Proclaim His Name.) And given Him a Name that is Above all names. That at the mention of the Name of Jesus! At the mention of the Name of Jesus, every kneels shall bow, of the things in Heaven; things on Earth and things underneath the Earth’.

Remember the Word in Exodus was I will Proclaim His Name.

He said: ‘Every tongues shall now Proclaim that Jesus is Lord’.

What is the challenge?

The Bible says: ‘At the mention of the Name of Jesus’, it means Jesus have another Name.

If they say that at the mention of the name of Daniel, that means Daniel has another name.

That at the mention of the name of Adeboye, it means daddy has another name. It could be Enoch or Adejare.

There is a Name you know, that is what you are calling. He said that at the mention of the Name of Jesus. He said what is the Name? Every tongues shall confess that Jesus is Lord – Jesus is Lord!

In Exodus, He said I will Proclaim the Name of the Lord.

Jesus fulfil the criteria of that Name Lord.

1. He said He is Gracious and Merciful.

Let’s see who meets this criteria – John 1:1, in the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God.

Verse 2, the same was with God in the beginning.

We got to a point, He said: ‘And the Word became flesh and dwell among us’.

What became flesh?

Verse 14, He says: ‘And we beheld the Glory’.

Remember, we are talking about Glory is a Person. And we beheld His Glory. He is the Owner of the Glory.

As the Glory of the Only Begotten Son of God full of Grace and Truth.

He said: ‘I will be Gracious to whom I will be Gracious to; I will be Merciful to whom I will be Merciful to’.

So who meet the criteria of Fullness of Grace?

Somebody shout the Person – Jesus!

Who meet that criteria? Who meet that criteria? – Am coming!

1. He said: ‘You cannot see my Face and live’.

So who has the Face?

Lets check who has the Face – 2 Corinthians 4:6, let’s see the Person who has the Face. This Person we are talking about fulfil criteria number one (1), He fulfilled number two (2), He has fulfilled number three (3). Let’s check number four (4).

Church if you are there, let us read together. Are you all there? – 2 Corinthians 4:6. Are you there?

Now, let’s read: ‘For God, who commanded Light to Shine out of Darkness, hath Shine in our heart, to give the Light of the Knowledge of the Glory of God – Where? Where? Where? In the Face of Jesus Christ.

Remember He told Moses nobody can see My Face and live but we saw now that, that Glory is in the Face of Jesus. That Glory is in the Face of Jesus.

Jesus is the One that is of God. Jesus is the One that has a Name. Jesus is the One that is Full of Grace and Mercy. Jesus is the One that has the Face.

When you say: ‘Lifted into Glory’; it means ‘Come into Christ’ because the Glory is a Person.

When you say ‘Lifted into Glory’; it means ‘Come into Jesus’ because He is the One that fulfil all the criteria.

Follow me. We have seen that Jesus Christ fulfil all the criteria.

Moses, you saw the First (1st) Adam but the Second (2nd) Adam is Coming.

God said ‘You can’t see My Face and live but a Generation is coning, they will see My Face.

The Generation of those who are here tonight are the ones that are qualified to see the Face.

They enjoyed the Graciousness. They enjoyed the Goodness.

He has given you the Name. He didn’t give Moses the Name; He only gave Moses the rod.

He didn’t give Moses a Name. He gave Moses a rod but when it comes to Daniel, He said ‘I have given you a Name that at the mention of this Name, cancer will bow’. ‘

I have given you a Name, that at the mention of this Name, failure will bow.’

He said ‘I have given you a Name, that when you mention this Name, sickness will disappear’.

Somebody mention that Name – Jesus!

Somebody mention that Name – Jesus!!

Somebody mention that Name – Jesus!!!

Somebody mention that Name – Jesus!!!!

When devil hears, he trembles. When devil hears, he falls. When devil hears, he shivers.

… Somebody shout Jesus – Jesus!

Moses had a rod but Daniel has a Name.

What do you have? What do you have? – Name!

To Moses, Glory was a Thing; to Daniel, Glory is a Person.

What do you have? – Name!

Let me try and round this off.

How can I come into this Glory? How can I be Lifted into this Glory?

1. SALVATION is what qualifies you to come into Glory.

Why? – We have seen that the Glory is not a thing, it is a Person.

If any man be in Christ, he is a New Creature; old things are passed away, behold all things have become New.

Salvation is called Regeneration.

I am a Biologist by Profession; Regeneration means change the gene and put another gene – ‘Regeneration’

At Salvation, my gene was removed and another was inserted.

That is why the curses in my father’s house can no longer torment me – I am no more from there.

I was translated from Ado-Ekiti to Zion. I am lifted from Earth to Zion. My gene has changed. My gene has changed.

At Salvation, I am recreated – What am used to be, I am no more. Who I used to be, I am no more. Where I am from, I have changed citizenship.

That is what Salvation did for me – Salvation changed my Country.

Are you a Nigerian?

I am from Zion.

My God shall supply all my Needs according to His riches in dollars? Riches in pounds? Riches in naira? Riches in yen? – Riches in what? Riches in what? -Glory!

Why? – In Zion, we spend Glory.

He send when men say ‘there is a casting down, I say there is a lifting up’.

Why? Because I am not from this Country.

When they are down, in Heaven, we are not down because in Heaven, we are always spending Glory.

Dollar can change from three hundred and sixty (#360) to one hundred and sixty naira (#160). But Glory has never changed value from the beginning till today.

Glory cannot change value because Glory is a Person.

Hebrews 13:8, He said: ‘Jesus, that is Glory, the same yesterday, – there was sometime in Nigeria, I was not yet born, my parents told me, when dollars was equal to one naira (#1). He is the same yesterday, He is the same today.

Listen to me, by next year, dollar can become one hundred and fifty naira (#150) to one dollar ($1).

But excuse me, He is the same Forever – Glory has not changed Value.

When I say: ‘Lifted into Glory’, I say ‘Lifted into Jesus’.

How do I come into Glory?

1. Look at Glory because you look like what you look at. You look like what you look at.

2 Corinthians 3:18, He said: ‘We all, with an open face, beholden as in a glass (What are we beholding).

Your problem is that you have not been looking at yourself; you have been looking at something else – You have been looking at your problem. You are looking at failure. You are looking at cancer. You are looking at poverty.

Somebody say ‘Look at Glory’.

Show me the Scripture! Show me the Scripture!!

Am changed into what kind of image? What kind? – Somebody say ‘the same’. Somebody say ‘the same’.

Am I looking different from Jesus? – As He is, so I am.

My stature is the stature of Jesus. My haircut is the haircut of Jesus. My face is the Face of Jesus. My height is the height of Jesus.

In case you don’t understand, I look like what I look at.

I am beholding the Glory.

I am changed into what I am looking at. I am beholding the Glory. I have changed into the same Image.

The Words of God is the Mirror. When you look at it, you will be like it.

The Bible says: ‘Let the weak say I am strong’.

… Strength is your Nature. Look at strength.

When I look at the Word, I become the Word.

… You look like what you look like.

You are looking at your challenges instead of looking at the Word.

Whatever the Word didn’t say about me, I am not.

Did the Word say you have cancer?

Somebody came to my Pastor sometimes ago. He said ‘Pastor, I don’t have womb, doctor said I don’t have womb’. My Pastor said ‘Shut up!’

Bible says: ‘Be fruitful’, not ‘be wombful’.

What did the Word say about you?

I look like what I look at.

Why are you looking at failure? Why are you looking at poverty.

1. 2 Corinthians 3:18 ‘… Are changed into the same Image from Glory to Glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord’.

An Ondo man speaks an Ondo language. Igbo man speaks Igbo language because the currency for Change is Language.

An Efik man speaks an Efik language but I saw in the Scriptures he that is Born of God is God. He that is born of Flesh is Flesh. He that is born of Spirit is Spirit.

Have you not read? John 4:24 – God is a Spirit and Psalms 82:6 says: ‘I am God’, son of the Most High God.

I can’t have Most High as my Father and be the most low – It is an embarrassment.

The son of a goat is a goat; son of a cow is a cow; son of elephant is an elephant; son of Spirit is Spirit.

Somebody say: ‘As by the Spirit’.

So if I am saying: ‘By the Spirit’, I need to understand the Language of the Spirit.

Hear me, when you are operating on the Computer System, there are softwares, there are keys – Ctrl A, Ctrl K, Ctrl something.

There is something called Ctrl T in Spirit called ‘Tongues’ – The more I bind in the Holy Ghost, the more I Change.

Hear me! Hear me somebody: “My Changing is in consonance with my Tonguing.”

When I speak the Language of the Spirit, I become like what I say.

Prayer in the Holy Ghost is not a Language for talking, it is a Language for Changing.

You have not Changed because you are not talking.

Somebody asked: ‘Why are we seeing Miracles?’

We are seeing Miracles because we are talking Miracles.

Somebody hold you neighbour: Let’s Change! Let’s Change!! Let’s Change!!!

This is the Way to Change.

Are you happy with your condition?

When you speak this Language, you are Changed.

That is why in Church, we do twelve (12) hours, non stop. CAPITAL LETTER TONGUES because we understand, that is the way to Change.

When we behold the Scriptures and begin to Speak in Tongues, we are Changed.

I am a lion. I am not a goat. When I Speak in Tongues, I am Changed to my ‘Lionic Destiny”.

I am an Eagle, I am not a chicken. When I Speak in Tongues, I am Changed to my “Eagle Destiny”.

Is somebody in this Arena. Grasp your neighbour, let us Change.

Change the Currency from timidity to ruggedity.

Change the Currency from sickness to health.

Change the Currency from failure to success.

Can you Change because we are Changed by the Spirit of the Lord.

Sometimes you will sit down here and just on the floor twelve (12) hours Changing; seven (7) hours Changing; thirteen (13) hours Changing; eighteen (18) hours Changing; sometimes, thirty one (31) hours Changing.

This is the Currency of Change.

Explanation doesn’t change men. Speaking in Tongues change men.

Looking at the mirror changes men. Salvation changes men.

Let there be sound in this Arena that men are Changing. What have you seen in your life? – Change! Change!!

This is the way to Change. Sometimes, we are here thirty one (31) hours, we are trying to Change.

By the time you Change, you look like a Lion.

Somebody CHANGE!!!

Thank you so much for staying all through to read.
