Thank you so so much, Mr Otabil ❤ God bless you, I really need this, as I am a child in the spirit and alone with no man of God or woman of God around me and demons Keep on attacking me even fiscally bug the Lord one day said to me to not fight but truth him only and now the enemy is disappearing because I. Trusting my God only that He is fighting for me . Glory be to God Amen 🙏
The part about Dr. Otabil saying he won't listen to anyone who has a word from God to him because in his view God doesn't gossip about his children can be misleading (I'm not saying intentionally because that is his considered opinion). It is perceiving God in a certain fixed way and this mindset can disappoint you and cause you to miss God. Consider 1 Samuel 3: Samuel was living with Eli the priest when God called him 3 times and on the 4th call revealed Himself to Samuel. In verse 11 God spoke to Samuel about Eli - specifically God's coming judgment against Eli's family. As difficult as it was for Samuel to break this news to Eli the priest, he did it, and more so after Eli demanded Samuel disclose what God had revealed to him. Eli's humility in listening to God even from his boy servant, Samuel, shows that even if you are a priest or minister God can still send you a message through someone else. It's not gossip. When it comes to God have no expectations of how you think he will act. God's modus operandi is not predictable. He is formless and shapeless and God can use anything and everything at his disposal to achieve any means anyhow, which is why no one can understand the ways of the LORD.
Samuel at that time was yet to know how to commune with God, so he wasn't sure. Here is a man who is confident that Christ dwells in him richly and that he has constant fellowship with the Father. Blessings.
@@AdeniyiBadmus How so? Eli taught Samuel the voice of God and how to respond to Him, and on Samuel's first encounter with God the LORD had a deeper personal conversation with the young prophet, including the revelation about Eli the great priest. Couldn't God have spoken to Eli directly? How many Christians and Pastors these days with full consciousness of Chirst, as you reference, commune with God as Samuel did? In any case, the point here is that God can and very often speaks to us through other people. And God has a good reason why but we just don't understand it or erroneously think he must speak to us every time as Dr. Otabil is implying. Humility is key when it comes to God for his ways are endless and unfathomable. Peace.
@@AdeniyiBadmus Going back to your point about Christ, even Jesus the Christ Himself has a message from God during his transfiguration on the Mountain. According to Luke chapter 9, "30 Two men, Moses and Elijah, appeared in glorious splendor, talking with Jesus. 31 They spoke about his departure,[a] which he was about to bring to fulfillment at Jerusalem." If God used Moses and Elijah, who were considered dead far beyond their generation/time, to deliver a message to Jesus (the fullness of the Deity and God in flesh), there's no basis anywhere to conclude that you're too great or matured in Christ for God to speak to you through another person. In any case, does this mean Jesus at the time didn't already know what Moses and Elijah were talking about? NO, he in fact did. God sometimes can use another person or people to remind us (for emphasis) about his will, to admonish us, or to strengthen us. To claim this is gossip is to have a misplaced understanding of God's ways. I hope this example of Jesus brings finality to any doubts.
You see why he got deceived by Ato Essien? Mr know it all, yet as board chairman a bank collapse under your very nose. He still hasn't learnt anything yet.
@@gideonmontgomery7809 There is no evidence that the discussion about Christ's departure between Himself, Moses and Elijah contained a message from God - the bible does not mention these two delivering any message. Christ did not need that - He fully knew what He was doing and how the Father had instructed Him to go about it. You thus cannot use that as an example.
In the Name that IS above every other name even CHRIST JESUS I have,on behalf of myself and all I stand in the gaps for, I decree and declare that I have put on the whole HEART of CHRIST JESUS Our LORD and SAVIOUR.. Amen, amen and amen.
My Faith has taken a good direction for the past month I decided to stick to the messages of Dr. Otabil and put them into practices. I was misled by some preachers and I lost interest in the things of God, but to God be the glory for His intervention through the man of God.
Great word! My only humble plea is as handlers or teachers of the scriptures, we should be mindful of the misconceptions we create in our attempt of curing certain mischiefs or misconceptions. I'm saying this due to Pst Dr Otabils attempt to "debris" someone bringing you a message from God...Isaiah 38:1-5, Hebrews 13:1-2, Revelation 1:1. Having said that I say my respect and love to you always Doc
One of the hardest things to do is for a godly man to teach a rebellious and adulterous generation. They would suffer fools and abusers of the people well...but once one comes teaching truth they cannot endure it patiently.
Only of people could understand wat the man is talking about then you not need someone to tell you that your enemy is trying to kill you. My brother God is ther for you aslong asyou believe you will need no to tell wats gonna happen next
Thank you. These teachings about fighting demons in prayer were taught by clergy. But it's never too late to pray as Jesus taught us in the Lord's prayer 🙏
For a pastor....I'm telling u all...it's not ur people. God has given u his people to take care and build them. Don't take them like ur people and misguide them. It's not ur people. Remember...it's God's people. So don't deceive them or misguide them.
Plenty talk, no power. Paul said he didn't come in the wisdom of men, but in the demonstration of God's power. Why did Paul say he fought the beast of Ephesus? Twa Tweaa Plenty talk, No Power!
No ! Apostle Paul is not wrong. Yes, we are not supposed to fight, but remain defended. Virtually all the weapons mentioned in Eph. 6 v 11-13 are for defence. The flesh is the enemy of the spirit. Our prayer should focus on changing (transforming) us. When we get transformed, the things we desire to change get changed ! Come to think of it, we (in our flesh are no match with these powers...). We are spirits... Our Master/Father/Friend is their Master. We don't talk to them ! We report them to their Master... Better still, we remind them of the main battle, where they lost it all - "having spoiled principalities and powers, He mad a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it ! The battlefield is our mind. "Casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalt itself against the knowledge of God". BUT THANKS BE TO GOD, WHO ALWAYS LEADS US IN TRIUMPH (AS TROPHIES OF CHRIST'S VICTORY).... 2 Cor. 2 v 14

I think you just listened without understanding Please try to listen well This man has a lot of wisdom and knowledge of God When you listen to his preaching trust me your life will never remain the same im a living witness @wealthcreator1902
So what happens to Ephesians 6:12?? These kinds sermons makes demons happier, because they will finish you in your ignorance. You have so many in the church struggling in life because of sermons like this. The earth on which we are is a battlefield, and demons are the enemies, and prayer is the weapon of the believer, for we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but demons, principalities and powers. Man of God, humble yourself and relearn
The world is not a battlefield. It is a beautiful gift from God. Don't deny the existence of the devil but not to give our attention to the devil. Concentrate on the beautiful things God has given us then glorify him
Africa is a continent with so much dark powers jealousy and envy. I've seen families wiped out even though they believe and trust in Jesus. I've seen pastors tormented by the devil and yet got delivered by another pastor. Sir please altars where people pray matters. God had to use Moses to deliver isrealites from Egypt. My question is does it mean there were no pastors among them before Moses came or is it that they were not praying before Moses came? If you are a pastor contend for power that even those listening you needs solution to their problems. Christianity is not only about preaching but solutions as well.
Herh…you’ve a gift for teaching..others for spiritual warfare and they all come together….so I don’t think you must not encourage people not to do spiritual warfare…that’s the same mistake you made when you were the chairman of a bank without experience…see the embarrassment that came to you…
God can talk to someone else to talk to you when u are not listening to Him or discerning His voice.Secondly God can use someone else to confirm what He has told you before in case you are still in doubt
Only of people could understand wat the man is talking about then you not need someone to tell you that your enemy is trying to kill you. My brother God is ther for you aslong asyou believe you will need no to tell wats gonna happen next
Pastor Mensa Otabil has paralyzed Nigerian charlatans by preaching the truth. Truth is brutal. Thank you Dr Otabil.
Could be he’s preaching from a place of envy….
Have learnt it today, to trust God and have peace. Thank you for another wonderful message. Greetings from Nigeria 🇳🇬
Always feels good to see your comment
Hmmm!what a great message,am encouraged ad to trust Him completely through His word
Thank you so so much, Mr Otabil ❤ God bless you, I really need this, as I am a child in the spirit and alone with no man of God or woman of God around me and demons
Keep on attacking me even fiscally bug the Lord one day said to me to not fight but truth him only and now the enemy is disappearing because I. Trusting my God only that He is fighting for me . Glory be to God Amen 🙏
Where are you from ?

The problem is not the message but the heart that receives it. Lot of us are pharisees of modern times

Power that some go to the devil to get. Is that power?
Be careful of the end time spirits in doctrines.
Don’t change ur confession 🫡
Apostle Paul is wrong and Pastor Otabil is right. We need to throw Ephesians 6:12 because we are not supposed to fight with demons. Right??

Your comment isn’t Christ like please find better ways of expressing your disagreement.
But God can use anyone to talk yo i ,even if you're a man of God!
