  1. I shared the message titled "Between Gethsemane and the Empty Grave" as the invitation for this teaching came to me while I stood outside during a youth camp prayer fast (30th to 4th of October 2026), looking at a place marked the garden of Gethsemane in front of me and the empty grave temple behind me.
  2. I teach that Hebrews 11:3 ('by faith we understand that the ages were framed by the word which God spoke') means believers can use the word of God to arrange their lives and their health, just as God arranged the ages by his word.
  3. I describe this month at the church as a designated 'month of healing for all,' a theme introduced by our father in the Lord, the bishop.

  1. I argue that in Genesis 1:1 ('In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth') everything pertaining to life and godliness, free of sickness, disease, death or corruption, was present in God's original design, and that verses two and three represent a later reconstruction after some destruction occurred, implying the trouble we face now came from a break between verse one and verse three.
  2. I claim that God did not include a hospital or medical center in his original arrangement for Adam, pointing out there is no mention of Adam going to any medical center in the first three chapters of Genesis, and I conclude that whatever was not part of the beginning can be reversed back to that original state by those born of God's spirit.
  3. I teach that sickness entered through Adam's disobedience in the garden, that sickness in a person's body is evidence death is in operation and a sign that the fall described in Genesis is true, and that sickness, as one of darkness's three-fold agenda to steal, kill and destroy, is meant to bring a person to their end if nothing is done.
  4. I cite Isaiah 53 ('he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities... by his stripes we were healed') and Luke 4:16-18 (Jesus reading from Isaiah 61 about healing the brokenhearted and setting captives free) as the written testament that Christ had to fulfill before believers could claim healing.
  5. I explain Gethsemane (Luke 22) as meaning 'oil press,' describing it as the crushing moment where Jesus prayed 'father if it is possible let this cup pass over me but not as I will thy will be done,' and I argue that once he surrendered to the father's will there, believers' freedom was effectively purchased even before the crucifixion itself.
  6. Referencing Luke 24, I describe the women finding the tomb empty and two men (angels) asking them 'why you seek the living among the dead,' and I apply this directly: when sickness operates in a person's body, they should ask what death is doing in a living body, since Jesus has already risen.
  7. I use a legal analogy comparing Christ's death and resurrection to a will: the testament (the will) for believers' healing and blessing could only be enforced because the one who wrote it, Jesus, died and then rose to personally enforce its terms, unlike an ordinary will where disputes can arise after the testator's death.
  8. I teach, citing Ephesians 1 and Romans 8:1, that because the same spirit that raised Christ from the dead lives in believers, that spirit can give life to their mortal bodies, and that entering into Christ through forgiveness of sins means there is no sin or sickness in the life/economy of God that a believer carries with them.
  9. I cite Deuteronomy 8:3 and the story of Moses fasting 40 days and 40 nights on the mountain without recorded food to argue that obedience to and focus on the word of God can sustain life and override hunger, and I suggest that people's sickness stems from not obeying the word of God, since 'sickness has no [power] unless the word of God can be broken.'
  10. Citing James 5:13-16, I teach that those suffering should pray, those not suffering should sing psalms, and that calling the elders of the church to pray a prayer of faith over the sick will heal them, and I led a closing communion and corporate prayer applying this directly to the health and finances of those present.

  1. Discussion Guide: Between Gethsemane and the Empty Grave 1. I taught that by faith we understand that the ages were framed by the word which God spoke (Hebrews 11:3). Discuss: what does it mean for you to use the word of God to arrange your own health or life circumstances? 2. I said that in Genesis 1:1, in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth, and that this verse represents God's complete, original, perfect intent, with no sickness, disease, death or corruption in it. Discuss what you think belongs in God's original intent for your life. 3. I argued that verse two of Genesis (darkness, formlessness) represents a disruption from that original state, and that whatever was not present in the beginning can be reversed back to the original state. Discuss what this reversal might look like practically. 4. I pointed out there was no hospital or medical center in the Genesis garden narrative. Discuss what I meant by saying this shows what was or wasn't part of God's beginning arrangement. 5. Reflect on my claim that sickness is a sign that sin and death are in operation, tracing back to Adam's disobedience. How does this shape how you think about illness? 6. I explained Gethsemane means oil press, a place of crushing, where Jesus prayed 'not as I will, thy will be done' before his arrest. Discuss the significance of surrender in that moment. 7. I described the angels at the empty tomb asking the women 'why seek ye the living among the dead,' and encouraged applying that question to sickness in your own body. Practice posing that question aloud to a specific health concern. 8. I used the metaphor of a will (last will and testament), noting a will cannot be enforced until the testator dies, but since Christ died and rose, the will (new testament) can now be enforced. Discuss what you believe this 'will' entitles you to. 9. I referenced Isaiah 53 ('by his stripes we were healed') and James 5:14-16 (calling the elders to pray the prayer of faith for the sick). Discuss how these passages relate to the practice of healing prayer in the church. 10. I shared a personal story of being invited to speak after standing between a place marked 'Garden of Gethsemane' and another marked 'the empty grave' at a youth camp retreat (30th to 4th October 2026). Discuss how personal, unplanned moments like this have shaped decisions in your own life.
  2. Exercise: Speaking to Your Body by the Word 1. Identify one area of your health or life that feels out of alignment with what you believe God originally intended for you. 2. Recall my teaching that hearing the word of God alone, without additional prayer, carries power, based on Revelation 1:3 ('blessed are those who hear'). Sit quietly and simply listen to a passage of scripture read aloud, without praying over it, and notice what shifts. 3. Practice the posing of a question I described: ask your body directly, 'what business has sickness to do in this body,' following the pattern of the angels asking 'why seek ye the living among the dead.' 4. Write down, in your own words, what you believe is 'written in the will' concerning your health, drawing on Isaiah 53 and 1 Peter (by his stripes we are healed). 5. As a closing declaration, practice saying aloud (as I prompted the congregation to say): 'Father, thank you for between Gethsemane and the empty grave, I enjoy the abundance of life.' Reflect afterward on how it felt to say this aloud.

  1. By faith we understand that the ages were arranged by the word which God spoke (Hebrews 11:3). Tonight I'm claiming that same principle: by the word of God you can arrange your health.
  2. I shared tonight between Gethsemane and the empty grave: Gethsemane means oil press, the crushing place where Jesus said 'not as I will, thy will be done.' The empty grave is where the angels asked, 'Why seek the living among the dead?'
  3. My core point tonight: whatever wasn't part of God's original creation in Genesis 1, like sickness, disease, death, can be reversed to that original state because of what Christ finished at Gethsemane and the empty grave.

  1. I said that when a man is sick, it's a testament that sin entered the human race through Adam, and that sickness is one of the clear signs that death's operations are present in the body.
  2. Isaiah 53 says the lamb of God 'was wounded for our transgressions... and by his stripes we were healed.' I preached that this written testament had to be fulfilled by Christ before we could stand on it.

God. You are God. You are God. You are God. You are God all by yourself.

Sing. You are God. You are God. You are God all by yourself. You are God.

You are God. You are God. You are God all by yourself. Hallelujah. Oh, he is God by himself.

From before time began, he was on his throne. Who put him there? He is God by himself. Tonight if only God can be God by himself in your life every situation will change. Bible says that day onto day or speech and night unto night reveals knowledge.

There is no language nor speech where their voice is not heard. Their lines have gone out throughout the earth and their voice to the ends of the world. Tonight is a night of the word of God. By faith we understand that the wells were framed by the word which God spoke. Hebrews 11:3 by faith we understand that the ages were arranged by the word which God spoke.

Hallelujah. So tonight by the word of God you can arrange your health. Amen. Tonight by the word of God you said by faith we understand. So please stand for a moment.

Said by faith we understand. Hebrews 11:3 said by faith we understand that the aons or the ages. So 2026 was have been framed by the word of God. What about God said from the beginning that is what is unfolding. And so you also by faith you can arrange your life.

You can arrange your health. Everything that pertains your life you can use the word of God to arrange it. Amen. Oh said tonight by the word of God my health will be arranged in the name of Jesus. Oh let's celebrate the Lord with the clap offering.

And let's kindly be seated in heavenly places. We thank God for his goodness and his mercies towards us. And maybe somebody be wondering, hey, who is standing before us tonight? Hallelujah. It has pleased the Lord.

It has pleased the Lord that grace will cause us to stand before you tonight. Amen. And so as we follow the fathers, normally when they come, they tell us that, you know, we give thanks to God. So I give thanks to God for the privilege and opportunity to stand before the saints which he has bought with his own blood. Amen.

And so help me appreciate God for the opportunity and privilege to stand before you tonight in the name of the Lord Jesus. Amen. And then obviously our father in the Lord in the person of bishop Dr. Kujo Adam Aiman. Amen.

Bible says that Moses the man of God by inspection without fail without argument bishop is a man of God. Amen. And if God want to help you in this life, he will send you a man and that man he will send carries the word of God because John 3:34 says that he who comes from God speaketh the word of God because the Holy Ghost is given to him without measure. Amen. So how you measure a man who has been sent by God is that that man speaks the word of God.

John 3:34 he said he who comes from God speaks the word of God or the mind of God. How or why? Because the Holy Ghost is given to him without measure without limit. That is what Jesus Christ came to do. And so by all inspection when bishop stands and is ministering the word of God you can but to say that there was a man sent from God whose name was not John but was George.

Hallelujah. So father we thank you for the bishop who is laboring and labor. We are also here tonight in the name of Jesus. Amen. And then let's extend a hand of gratitude to our senior pastor, pastor Dr.

Rammon Cotto Adabo. Amen. And then so I'll tell us how I ended up here. Amen. And then we share the word of God and we go for the communion and we close.

Amen. So once I've mentioned pastor's name now it happened that when we went for the youth camp which was on the 30th to the 4th of October 2026. Now on the Thursday it was a prayer turn. So we fast from morning to 4:00 p.m.

Uhhuh. So after one of the sessions I came out and I was standing outside and where I was standing when I look in front it was written the garden of Gethsemane. Now when I look at my back, it was called the empty temple or the empty grape temple. And a senior was standing by his car and he told me that it has pleased the Lord that coming October like this month that we have entered one of the Wednesdays I'll be called upon to share the word of God. And I was like wow.

And he told me that oh he said oh oh it's a it's a good point. It's a good place. Hallelujah. It's a it was it was very great invitation. So I was also dealing with my Gethsemane and then empty grave and I'll tell you why.

Hallelujah. So thank you so much senior pastor for the opportunity and the privilege to share the word of God. Amen. And then let's extend a hand to our pastors. My my my pastor in the youth ministry is in the house.

Hallelujah. Okay. My pastors hey there today. So pastor Jones is in the house. PJ is in the house.

Pastor Festo is in the house. I think in the youth ministry these are the two men who are leading us. So ever since we became youth members we have joined became executives they are the key people that God is using to shape our lives. Amen. So pastor glory bless you pastor festos glory bless you for the laborers direction correction and instruction in the name of the lord Jesus Christ.

Amen. And then you also you are here. Hallelujah. Oh say I am here. I am here.

Let's make a confession. Say father father tonight I am not living here the same way I came for God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all I can think I can ask and I can imagine according to his power at work in me. Hallelujah. That is Ephesians 3:20. Amen.

So this month is our month of healing for all. Healing for all. And our father in the Lord the bishop came to introduce the subject matter for the month. And we have been running and today we are here to continue in the same vein. Amen.

And so tonight I'm sharing with us briefly what I've captioned between Gethsemane and the empty grave. Hallelujah. So we are standing between Gethsemane and the empty grave. So that is how the invitation came. So I told us that when the invitation came when senior came to me where I was standing when I looked in front it was the empty grave or it was the garden of Gethsemane.

And then when I look behind me it's called the temple of the empty grave. Hallelujah. That is a it's a very nice place in Chopi royal house. That is where their their mission grounds is. Now why between Gethsemane and the empty grave.

Hallelujah. Now we are going to look into the word of God because Bible make us to understand that the wells that we see around and the ages the reason why they are the way they are is because of the word which God spoke or which God released. Amen. So it is the same the way of the father is the way of the spirit. The way of the spirit is the way of the son.

So how god does his things is how the holy ghost does his things. How Jesus does his things is how the holy spirit does his things. And so Thomas was saying that oh show us the father. He said if you have seen me you have seen the father. Amen.

So the way God does his things is the same way we also being born of the spirit of God, being born not of a corruptible seed but of incorruptible which is the word of God. The same way God administers his household. The same way God arranges everything is the same way we also are supposed to arrange our life and everything that pertains to us. Amen. And so we are going to look into the word of God and then by the word of God we are going to like I said earlier we are going to arrange every area of our health by faith you can arrange it.

It is not permanent. Hallelujah. Now in the less recent testament in the less recent testament what is called the mirror of the past from which we look to behold the relative of the present is called the old testament basically what I'm the old testament I'm talking about. Hallelujah. So the mirror of the past from which we look to behold the realities of our life now which those who are old when we say old it enforces their ageness.

So we don't say when talking about an old less recent testament less recent it's a less recent testament hallelujah now in the less recent recent testament the first book the first verse is where we are going to anchor and then we come into the middle and we are going to journey and then that will be all hallelujah so in the less recent testament which is the old testament now the old testament has the new embedded in So the old testament is the new testament concealed. All right? And the new testament is the old testament revealed. So the mirror of the past from which we look to behold the present is the old testament. You see?

So when you look into the old testament there are so many things inside. Everything is there. The gospel is inside. Everything all that God want to do is inside. But we have to dig deep into it and then find out what god is doing or has done in the old and then we now appreciate it in the new.

Hallelujah. Now we are talking about healing for all and we are looking at between Gethsemane and the empty grave. Please keep that as the focus. So in the first verse the Bible met us to understand that in beginning Elohim created the heavens and the earth. In beginning Elohim created the heavens and the earth.

Now that is a complete story and a complete experience. Now whatever God does is good. Please follow. Whatever God does is good and all good and perfect gift come from the father of light or the father of glory according to the testimony of James. So in beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

Whatever pertains to life and godliness is inside. That is what God's mind is and is shall continue and it will be. Now when you journey the the second verse of the first book of the last present testament, it make us to understand that darkness was upon the face of the deep. The earth was without form and void and darkness was upon the face of the deep and the spirit of God was hoovering upon the waters. Now in the third verse it says and God said light be and light became.

Hallelujah. Now in the context of God's original mind everyone must dwell in that space in that verse one. That is everything that must pertain to us is in the verse one. The moment we enter into the verse two it becomes reconstruction or preparation. A lot of things are going on but whatever God decided to do is in the verse one.

In beginning God the heavens and the earth and so that was the ideal state but the verse two and three gives us a picture of which bishop has taken his time almost all the men of God we have encountered you have explained a lot of things to us already. Hallelujah. Now we are building a point. We are building a point. So when the verse two and three happened a lot of things changed.

So in beginning God broke the heavens and the earth. Sickness was not inside. Disease was not inside. Death was not inside. Corruption was not inside.

Because whatever you create is a reflection of who you are. If you create, whatever you create, whatever you make is your expression. It's your mind. It's your thoughts. If you sit down to write a book, it is who you are that is what like who you have become or what you want to see that is what you write.

So when God created the heavens and the earth, his signature is on it. His mind is in whatever he desires to do is inside. So all the issues that we are going through in time what I call in the middle is because of destruction has come that has happened between the verse one and the verse three. Hallelujah. So we journey into verse two.

Now in the verse one, God prepares after the destruction, God comes on the scene, causes light to abound and then prepares everything. Let waters gather to one place. Let the waters be needed. Gather to one place. Let dry ground.

Let because man was coming. Hallelujah. Man was coming. Now you see God is himself is preparing a place for an entity to come. So God put everything together and then the verse 26 27 28 which you have anchored a lot.

I think this theme of the year is also anchored there. The first book of the Bible. So everything has been arranged. Man is to come and God now expresses his mind. He's taught to us that let us now this us includes whatever was created both God Elohim and whatever was within God's economy let us make man please follow Bible said as Christ in Luke 5:17 he said whilst Jesus was ministering the word of God the power of God was present to heal anywhere the word of God is being ministered God is there the Holy Ghost is there angels are there.

Whatever you desire, God will make available for you. Hallelujah. So please follow as you listen to the word of God, you are going to encounter your healing, your deliverance because revelations 1:3 says that blessed are those who hear. Blessed are those who read and blessed are those who keep to heart the words of the prophecy of the word of God. So anytime you sit under the word of God by hearing is called blessing.

So if you are sick in your body, the hearing of the word of God alone has the power to take away without pray without any prayers. If only you can fix your gaze on the word of God. So tonight, please follow. Don't let sleep rob you. Please be alert and be present.

Hallelujah. Now man has entered into the garden to compress a lot of things. Hallelujah. Now the man that was coming into the garden, God gave him a a clear mandate and everything that of all that we have constructed, we have prepared take charge. So take charge take charge.

It is for you because the earth is the loss and the fullness thereof. So enjoy. Hallelujah. Now God didn't add hospital to the whole arrangement. There was no hospital in the arrangement.

Hallelujah. If you check the Bible, there was no there was no medical center in the Bible in the first book especially in the first three chapters. We didn't hear of Adam going to do any you know we can come to the same place. What I'm saying is that what I'm sharing with us tonight is that whatever was not part of the beginning, you have the power to reverse it to the original state. That is the summary of what I'm sharing with us tonight.

Whatever was not in beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. As long as you are born of God, as long as you are born of the spirit of God, you have been given authority to also say light be. Because the same like I said the same way God does his things is the same way the Holy Ghost does his things is the same way Jesus Christ does his things and because we also share in the same life then we also will do our things the same way. Hallelujah. Amen.

So life is in God's garden. Adam and Eve were enjoying God's garden, God's presence and God's authority, God's glory. Everything was there until a certain voice appeared on the scene. And when the voice appeared on the scene, the long and short is that man lost his place in God's garden. That was when sickness and disease began to manifest.

Hallelujah. He said in the day that you eat of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden you will surely die. So sickness is a testament that sin has occurred upon the earth. When a man is sick when a man's body is not functioning well is a testament that the word of God is true because death is in operation. There are symptoms and signs of death.

So as long as sin entered into the human race by one man called Adam, everyone who proceeds from that one man carries the consequences of that disobedience. And so when you find your body not functioning well is a testament that the first book of the Bible is true because that is the sign that death is in operation. Now when death is in operation, God does not take glory. When death is in operation, God does not get glory because I am the way, the truth, and the life. The thief does not come except to kill to except to steal, to kill, and to destroy.

So when you find sickness in operation is part of the three-fold agenda of darkness to steal your life. Hallelujah. So the thief does not come Mr. Jerry. The thief does not come except to steal, to kill, and to destroy.

Now when sickness finds itself in the body of a man, it is counter life. It is anti-life because the goal of sickness is not to give you chance to praise God. The work of sickness in a man's body is to bring you to your end. When a man is sick and he does nothing about it, it's a matter of time, you'll be gathered together to join the fathers and be buried. Hallelujah.

So when you find sickness and disease around or in your personal life, it is called the operations of death as a result of the fall of man in the garden. Now, the good news is that by one man called Christ Jesus, who is God's perfect man and man's perfect God, there must be a reversal of all things into the beginning. I hope you are following me and I hope I'm I've not lost anybody because bishop has declared that this month everything that pertains to life and godliness must become your testimony and whatever is called death destruction must become once I was blind now I can see it is it's not in heaven it's in is here it is in your hands if only you can pay attention to the word of God you can deliver your soul from death hallelujah So the disobedience of one man brought the operations of death of which sickness one of the key or clear signs that death is around. One of the obvious signs that shows that death is real or death is around is sickness. Because norally when somebody falls sick if he doesn't get well he doesn't get healed the end is what is death.

Hallelujah. But the good news is that the subject matter what I am bringing to the table. Now if you go into the book of God in the less recent testament according to testimony of Isaiah the prophet the chapter number 53. Now the man of God under the inspiration of the Holy Ghost was given to write things that pertains to the lamb of God that when the lamb of God enters into time these are the things that have been written concerning him because the mind of God like I said when you are creating you create from your realm from your life from your perspective so the devil is not God's competition the devil is not God's people God any no the devil is a distraction in God's operation and his time is he knows his time he has he has a determined time to run so leave him alone leave let's focus on God hallelujah so when Jesus came he must come to give us life because already death was in the system before the son of man was made manifest death was already reigning by one man called Adam. Romans addresses it very clearly that through one man dead reign onto Moses or until Moses and then the second man Adam the second Adam by name Jesus Christ appeared to put away sin because sin is the wiring is is the root cause of all the anti-life operations that we find around us.

So Isaiah 53 verse1 he said who has believed our reports and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? Please move on for us. He shall for he shall grow up before him as a tender plant and as a root of dry ground. He has no form or cleanliness. When we see him there is no beauty that we should desire him.

Now all these are the operations of death. See it it was because of what has happened to God's original intent. That is how come Jesus Christ didn't come as a fresh man you know like in quot say fresh somebody say somebody's fresh he didn't come as your regular you know fresh boy or fresh the weight was too much. Hallelujah. So Isaiah describes the shape, the nature and the person of God's perfect man to come and deal finally with the whole sin and death issue.

Now please go to verse five for us. Verse five. But he was wounded for our transgressions. He was bruised for our iniquities. The chastisement for our peace was upon him.

and by his stripes we were healed. Now this has this has been written and so the man must come and fulfill it. So in the book of the current recent or the recent testament all right what do you call the ent if you pick Matthew Mark Luke and John it tells us that in the beginning was the word John and the word was with God and the word was God the same was was in the beginning with God and without him was not anything made that was made. In him was life and the life was the light of men. Now this same life which is light which has become our life had to go through Isaiah 53 because it's a testament.

It's a written testament. It's a document that must be ratified so we can enjoy the benefit because the 53 tells us that this is what must happen. God's perfect man must come and fulfill what Isaiah has written of him. So Bible make us to understand that when Christ entered the temple in the book of Luke 4:16 he said when he entered the temple he took the scroll and he read of what was written concerning him in the book of Isaiah which is Isaiah 61 that the spirit of the Lord God is upon me for he has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor to proclaim liberty to the captive and to heal the brokenhearted and to set at liberty all those who have been bound. So all these are in it's more like it's a hovering kind of thing.

So the lamb of God must come and then ensure that this thing is sorted out. The moment this one is fulfilled, we can stand and make a demand that father according to this testament let an end come to everything called sickness and disease in my life. Hallelujah. So the the lamb of God has appeared. John tells us that John 1:29 or John I mean John 1:29 he said behold the lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.

Now let's go to Luke chapter 22. Now the lamb has come. The lamb is manifesting. The lamb is moving. The lamb has been traveling.

But he must die. The lamb is for sacrifice. Hallelujah. The lamb is for sacrifice. As long as the lamb is roaming, it won't help us.

The lamb must be sacrificed. The moment the lamb's blood touches the ground, auina. Hallelujah. So in Luke chapter 22 39 now the lamb is close is close to his crucifixion his death and the weight of the crucifixion was heavy upon him. So Bible says that he took his people into his regular place called the mount of olives.

Now in the mount of olives he normally goes there to make prayers. But this time around he was near his death. So he said let me go and make a prayer. And so when he entered the garden of the mount of olives that's where the garden of Gethsemane is. Now Gethsemane simply means oil press.

It's it's like when you you see when you are making oil if you go to the place where they make palm oil and all those things. Now there's a crushing process. There's a there's a squeezing process. That was what was happening when he entered the place. It was a crashing moment.

So the weight came upon him and he said that father if it is possible let this cup pass over me but not as I will thy will be done. Amen. So the father heard him and the father gave him strength. He was arrested and then he was crucified. He was brought down and then men receive him.

Joseph Matia got his body put it in a fresh tomb and then the soldiers put you know a big stone and locked it up. So that is Gethsemane. So Gethsemane has concluded all the sufferings. People are wondering is it the death of Christ? Is it two and a half days or from Gethsemane to the end he was already gone.

Hallelujah. Once he said thy will be done, it was just a matter of time for the real you know death to happen. But the moment he surrendered to the will of the father, our freedom was purchased. But when it comes to whale, when it comes to the a whale, there are three aspects. There is the writing of the whale, which is the execution and there is a reading to know what is in the whale and there is the execution.

Lawyer can hire you I can hire you as a lawyer for tonight so that you help us to know do the whale thing. So the son of man has been locked behind the tomb early in the morning on the first day of the week. Women got up. Luke 24. Luke 24.

Luke chapter 24. So on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and Mary and M and all the women decided to go and check. Now when they went to check they were wondering how will the stone be rolled away because mighty men brought the stone to close the tomb. How are you going to even roll away the stone? Brethren, God knows that you can't roll away the stone.

That is why they are angels. So while they were contemplating that, hey, when we get to the I want to go and see where Jesus is. I want to just go and visit. We know that when he was put in the tomb, they rolled a big stone to to hit the entrance. How would we enter?

Angels were already waiting. Hallelujah. So angels had come and they had rolled away the stone and Bible said and they sat on it back and they sat on it. We are in charge. Hallelujah.

So when the when Mary Magdalene got to the place like hey there there's no stone baba he look inside he didn't find anybody and then the the apron or the covering was folded nicely and then when they look around they saw two men Luke says they saw two men and they asked him a question why You seek the living among the dead. Tonight when you find sickness operating your body, you have a cause to ask the question, what is that doing in my living body? See you have to pose questions. Said and the word of God pose question to darkness and darkness could not find an answer. Maybe the reason why you are still in the situation you are in is that you have not posed a question yet.

If you can say to your body that my body you are the temple of God what business has sickness to do in this body. He said when light pos the question to darkness darkness exited without argument. So you also I don't know what is your area of health challenge or area of health need like the angel why are you looking for the living among the dead when you find death operating in your members don't watch it you have the power to speak to it on the grounds of Gethsemane and the empty grave hallelujah Yeah, that is what I came to tell us that as far as Isaiah wrote and in the fullness of time the lamb of God came went through Gethsemane entered the grave and on the first day of the week when the women entered he was not there he was risen on this account the testament which was the will can be enforced because When you write your will until you die the will cannot be enforced. You can be looking at it. You can even pray that the person should die that oh die so that we can uh but sometimes when the person even dies trouble can come around the wheel.

But the but the good thing is that in our case the one who wrote the wheel is the one who died and the one who died is the one who has risen and he is going to help us enjoy the benefit of the wheel. Hallelujah. The one who died rode a whale and then he he's back again to come and sit down and then show authority. Maybe they look at your face that your face but he himself is there. So nobody can come and bring this.

No, it is written. It is written. It is written. Father, father you see there is no argument because the testator is around. So if somebody want to twist that God will give you sickness and then go and check the document that I didn't write that one.

So it's not like that. Hallelujah. So the one who wrote the wheel died and the same person who died according to Ephesians chapter one he said by the exceeding greatness of his power God raised him from the dead to the praise of the glory of his grace wherein he has made us accepted in the beloved. Now verse three said, "Blessed be the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ who had blessed us with all the spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus." That which is in God is in Christ.

So when a man enters into Christ, all of God is in Christ. The Holy Ghost is in Christ. How do you carry sickness and enter into God and into Christ? You have to reverse it. Tonight we are going to rise up.

Have some few minutes. We are going to make war. The testament is for us. He said who believe who has believed our report. H we are holding the report.

If you have a Bible, we can hold it. I have the report. Oh, that is why have a physical Bible. Say hold somebody hold his phone Mr. Arnold the one who wrote the way he's back to enforce it.

So nobody can come and sit as say that oh you know we have to pray 10,000 hours. It's not like that it is finished in Jesus Christ. It didn't say it will finish. We said it is finished. We came not before it was working.

We came by the time we entered it was finished. So what we are going through is after it was finished I was asking my friends that if it is finished is like this then before it was finished what was the situation you have the power you have the authority the will is yours blessed be the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ who has blessed us with all the spiritual blessings things in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus. In whom we have redemption through his blood. The forgiveness of sins. Forgiveness of sins is the introduction to the life of God.

When a man s like it's like you're entering a building, the gate is called the forgiveness of sins. So all things sin is not in the is at the so when you pass through the blood sin is it own because in the economy of God there's no sin inside life life. So Bible make us to understand in Romans 8:1 that if the same spirit of him that raised Christ Jesus from the dead if the same spirit of him if the same spirit of him see you have to gather your argument tonight if you have been sick for a long time go for your will go for a wheel look for one of the the it's about citiz 6 books. The wheel is 66 books. The less recent is 39.

The recent is 27. You forget about 39. Go for the 27. Pick one or 27. We are going to make our case because who declare his generation?

He was cut off. Who declare his generation? We are the continuation of the life of Jesus. Oh, say I am the continuation of the life of Jesus. Would Jesus Christ be sick?

I've been asking myself question is if the son of man was to be living in tyifa as I'm living in tyifa would he be going to hospital for checkup and that is the life you have received. He said 1 Corinthians 1 6:17 said who he who is joined unto the Lord is one spirit with him. So what gives God the life of God is inside of you. The life of God is inside of me. So whatever is not the life of God.

It's okay. Hallelujah. It's okay. You have the power to determine when sickness and disease exit out of your life on the account of Gethsemane and the empty grave. He said it it pleased the father to bruise him.

It pleased God to bruise him. And so Romans 8:28 and we know. And we know and we know. Now Paul always says that and we know. But do you know because he was speaking that and we know so when you are reading Paul don't read that don't read from his perspect like read from he said and we so have to enter into the wei.

Uhhuh. Because he said that and we know but the question is do you know but you can know. Hallelujah. Oh say by the holy ghost I will know. And as I know I enjoy life.

What is life? Have you asked yourself before? What is life? Life is Jesus. John 14:E4.

So life is not eating and it's not like eating and drinking, you know, because eating and drinking can cause you to die, you know. So, but there's a food that you eat and you don't die. Hallelujah. There is a food that does not cause death. Bible makers to understand in the book of Deuteronomy chapter 8:3 said he suffered them to hunger and made them go through a lot of things to teach them that men ought not to eat by bread alone.

Men shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceed out of the mouth of God. A man by name Moses found himself on a mountain for 40 days 40 night. There was no banquet. There was no they didn't serve any food there but he was there 40 days 40 night. What was he eating?

We don't know but we understand that a man shall not live by bread alone. As he was conversing with God, the life of God was overshadowing him. So hunger everything was gone. Hallelujah. Brethren, if you want to be sick, God can use as an experiment to explain that you cannot be sick.

But you can become a specimen to to show that. So the reason why they were sick was that they were not obeying the word of God. And because they were not obeying the word of God, death find found expression in their body. Because said if you hearken diligently to the voice of the Lord your God, sickness has no unless the word of God can be broken. So give us this day our daily word.

Somebody was saying bread. Bread is there but give us this day our daily word. Hallelujah. I would say father give us this day our daily word because the word of God is life and spirit. John 6:63 this is the word of God speaking.

The word of God is speaking to the word of God. You must speak the word of God to your life. Hallelujah. said the flesh profits nothing. So the reason why there are so many issues you are to the flesh when they say fasting and prayer you are doing feisting and singing and dancing when they say let us pray you know church declares fasting and prayer there is how to enforce the spirit life there is God's arrangement to enforce the spirit life as long as we stay in that atmosphere is like the way God was telling them that if you will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy I will not put.

So the moment you you begin to move out of the word of God, sickness can enter into your space. But as long as you take in daily bread, which is the word, John 6, he said, "The flesh profits nothing. It is the spirit that giveth life. The words that I speak unto you, they are spirit and they are life. Oh, how many of us are looking for life?

How many of us have life? Hallelujah. Oh, so by the word of God, you can you can enjoy life. Amen. By faith, we understand that the ages we we are not praying for God to come.

God will come. Hallelujah. He has spoken his word and has it has arranged. Nobody can utter any. You can't just pass through a move.

Hallelujah. As much as you can take of the finished work, partake. When your time is up, you fall asleep with the fathers and you go. Hallelujah. Finally, with long life, I will satisfy you and show you my Jesus.

If you want to escape death, if you want to die, the psalmist is telling you with long life, I will satisfy you and show you my Jesus. So the the way to life is to look at Jesus. In the book of Numbers 11, when the vi venomous serpents were moving around, those who lived were those who looked at the brazing serpent. Now that brazen serpent was Jesus in picture form. So it's the same life is looking at Jesus.

As long as if you are not feeling well, look at Jesus. The moment you find that death is working your members, you say no. Hey, checkpoint checkpoint checkpoint. Easy. Gethsemane and the empty grave.

When you feel your head is Gethsemane and the empty grave, wrong address. Move, move, move. Wrong address. The moment you my my leg, don't say my leg. Gethsemane and the empty grave.

Get it has been it has been paid for. It has been paid for. It has been paid for. It has been paid for. With long life, I will satisfy you.

And so my Jesus. The key to long life is to see Jesus. So as long as you're focused on Jesus, death cannot No, no, no. I am the resurrection and the life. I am the resurrection and the life.

John chapter 11. Matter. Didn't I tell you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God? So your own belief, Lazarus will die, but Lazarus will live again. Hallelujah.

Because by faith you understand that the walls were free by the word of God. Let's kindly be outstanding. Hallelujah. Between Gethsemane and the empty grave, anything that has a name that is a sickness in your life must answer to the name of Jesus. Bible make us to understand the book of James chapter 5.

Verse 13, he said, "Is there anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is there anyone who is not suffering? Let him sing psalms and praises unto God." Verse 16, he said, "Is there anyone sick among you?

Let him call for the elders of the church. And let the elders come and make prayers of faith for him, and the prayer of faith shall heal the sick." Oh, it is finished. The Lord gave me a song. Yes, my time is not up.

So, we are going to make a prayer. In the beginning, it was not. So, see me, I'm praying that I will not be I've not been sick for I've forgotten that there's something called sickness. That's what I'm I want to wait to people are saying that oh for the past 30 years me I want to I don't know the sickness in the air. That's what that's where I'm going to that's he said whatsoever thing you desire whatso on the account of Gethsemane and the empty grave whatsoever thing you desire when you pray believe and you shall have them some want to go to hospital and get healed it's a real some also want to be like Moses on the mountain hearing the word of God no hunger no food no water glory glory glory hallelujah whatsoever thing you desire brethren I am the resurrection and the life.

Jesus suffered so that you will enjoy. You have what it takes to demand that once the test has died and he has arisen. Father whatever is in the wheel as far as health is concerned tonight give us this day our daily bread. Let's make a prayer. Let's make a prayer in the next five minutes.

in the next five minutes. Oh, your prayer can heal the sick. Christ has given us authority and power. He's not coming again to do anything. He's coming to close the age.

We have what it takes to correct the issues. Who has believed our reports? Who who who somebody was sick for 38 years? Oh, why? Lift your voice.

It's a corporate prayer. Let there be light. Light has come. Burdens are lifted. Eternal.

He is not here. He's risen. Why do you seek the living among the dead? If the same Holy Ghost that raised Christ from the dead, if that same spirit lives in you, that same Holy Ghost shall give life. The Lord gave me a song and it's a king.

That is our song. Oh, make a prayer. Even if you are dead, the word of God can put you together as life. Lazarus was dead and was decomposing. The word of God was able to go put him together and bring him out of the grave.

Lazarus was buried and was thinking and was decomposing. But the word of God was able to put him together, bring him back as Lazarus. Hey, he is not here. He's risen. Light has come.

In him was light and the light was the life of me. In him, in him we have entered into God. Oh, there is no death in God. what is dead can receive life and what is alive can be made more the thief does not come tonight angry at death will give way I don't know how long your issue stood but Jesus is in the house for where two or three are dead together into my name there I am as life I am the way the truth and the life that does not Hey, sickness and operation of of the teeth. Infirmity is an operation of the teeth.

But tonight, we are born of the spirit of God. We are born of God. We can supply the spirit. Thank you Jesus with love. All they who are their lifetimes to death Christ has put away death.

The will has been enforced by the Holy Ghost. You can live without sickness and disease. It was the same Holy Ghost. He shall give life to our mortal bodies. Father give life to our mortal bodies.

Give us our daily word. You can sing this song. You can't find you look for it. You can't find it. The lamb of God has suffered enough.

The lamb is worthy to said. He shall see. He shall see. He shall see the recompense of his soul and he shall be glad because why? The punishment has been accepted.

Oh my make by faith. You understand that the wells Oh, you can frame your health. You can frame your health. It's time for the communion. It's time for the communion.

It's time for the communion. The life of an animal is in the blood. It's time for the communion. If you are online, you can get water. I am the resurrection and the life.

In the beginning, God created heavens and earth. You can reverse whatever was not in the beginning on the account of the testimony and the empty grave. Behold, I give unto thee power. I give unto thee power. That's how you escape sickness.

By singing, you can escape sickness and death. Father, whatever has been plaguing our bodies in the name of Jesus Christ, that is your song by the communion tonight, whatever has been hiding in your body for a long time. The empty grave between that is our song. That is our prayer tonight in the name of Jesus. Those who are online communion can partake.

Hallelujah. Oh Jesus, your blood was shed. Who has believed the report? You have believed the report. You have life for the bread.

The bread is blessed. The bread we break is the body of Jesus. The bread, the bread we break, it is the body of Jesus. It's a testimony. It's a testimony that Christ has paid the price.

And the cup, And is the blood of the Lord. Oh, by the blood of the lamb we are free. We are free. And so father tonight the blood is blessed. The body is blessed.

Thank you for life in the name of Jesus. Go ahead, partake of life. As you drink the blood, set yourself bringing us. I came that you have life. Appreciate the Lord.

Hallelujah. As we sing those, they sing. Oh, but you Daniel, thou art beloved of the Lord. And because the Lord loves you, I have come to give you an answer and interpretation. Whatever is your prayer request, God will give you an answer.

Said, but you Daniel, the Lord loves you. So I have come to give you an answer. Jesus loves me. Say, Jesus loves me. Oh, Jesus loves me.

From tonight, I enjoy abundance of life. When I see death operating in my elements, I have what it takes to stop it. I will live and not die. Oh, you are not saying it. By faith, you understand that the walls were framed by the word which God kept quiet.

No, what God spoke. I say, "Father, thank you for between Gethsemane and the empty grave. I enjoy the abundance of life, my finances has responded to life. From tonight, I lay up gold. I lay up as dust on the account of the empty grave.

Thank you, Jesus, for healing my finances. I am a blessing. I am a blessing in Jesus name. Cast your offering. Give the Lord a shout.

Hallelujah. I confess tomorrow. Because he because he lives. All fear is gone. And now I know.

And now I know as I know he owes the future and life is what and living just because he live. Because he lives.
