WHEN GOD CALLED ME I ASKED WHAT WILL I BE TEACHING FOR ONE YEAR THAT WILL BE RELEVANT? BUT IN 42 YEARS WE HAVE NOT FINISHED PREACHING WHAT HE IS SAYING
THERE IS NO SINGLE INDISPENSABLE PERSON IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD NOT ONE!
THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEBODY BETTER NEXT DOOR.
I PRAY THAT YOUR CROWN IN THE KINGDOM, ANOTHER MAN WILL NOT TAKE.
MOST PEOPLE FAIL BECAUSE THEY KNOW IT TOO MUCH IN THEIR OWN EYES.
NO PROUD BELIEVER HAS A FUTURE WITH GOD.
MAY THE GRACE FOR THE REQUIRED MEEKNESS TO KEEP ACCESSING DIVINE GUIDANCE, DIVINE INSIGHT BE EVERYONE’S PORTION TODAY.
IT’S IMPORTANT TO ASK QUESTIONS. WHY IS THIS MYSTERY NOT WORKING IN EVERY HAND?
EVERYTHING WORKS BY FAITH IN THE KINGDOM, OUTSIDE OF YOUR FAITH AND MY FAITH, THERE IS NO ACCESS.
–Bishop David Oyedepo on “UNVEILING THE MYSTERY OF THE PROPHETIC MANTLE” at 42nd Liberation Service Faith Tabernacle Canaanland Part A

Praise God, I am finally on Covenant Highways of life. Congratulations. Give the LORD a good hand of praise and please you may be seated.
One of the things that the LORD told me, very early after this dramatic encounter that delivered the vision is that “My son I have not chosen you because you are better than anybody else neither are you smarter than anyone else, I have only given you a privilege and should you abuse it, there are better hundreds at the door.”
How many have heard me say that before? There is no single indispensable person in the Kingdom of God not one! 1 Samuel 15:28. There is always somebody better next door, may your crown another man not take. I pray that your crown in the Kingdom, another man will not take. I wasn’t saying that, sometimes later I told them exactly when God told me, that I am absolutely dispensable, I should see it as a privilege and jealously guard it.
Interestingly, I said to God “What will I be teaching that will still be relevant for one whole year? LORD, what are You exposing me to?” I met it, I didn’t have it and now by His grace, we have not finished preaching what He is saying. Most people fail because they know it too much. They are too much in their own eyes.
No proud believer has a future with God. Let’s learn a lesson from it. I was broken because I couldn’t imagine what I would be teaching one whole year that will make meaning and people will still be hearing and I won’t be repeating myself over and over again. He knew my heart. Somebody is liberated from secret pride today because the meek will He guide in judgement, the meek will He teach His way. Psalms 25:9.
In Matthew Chapter 11, the Word says in 28 and 29, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest.” Come and learn of Me but come with meeekness and you shall find rest for your soul.
May the grace for the required meekness to keep accessing divine guidance, divine insight be everyone’s portion today.
For the time we have, we will be looking at “UNVEILING THE MYSTERY OF THE PROPHETIC MANTLE.” Whatever touches the anointed, particularly a clothing materials conveys the anointing on the anointed. Two scriptures; in Psalms 45:6-8, maybe that was what the woman heard in the temple and started looking for the garment of Jesus. All thy garments! Psalms 133:1-3.
So, the anointing on the anointed is ordained to flow through any clothing material that touches him. We saw that in the New Testament, from the ministry of Jesus, that woman touched Him and the flow of blood stopped immediately. Luke 8:44-46. She touched His clothes not His flesh.
We also saw how handkerchief and aprons were taken from Paul the Apostle to them that were sick, the diseases departed and evil spirits went out of them. They were healed, special miracles. Acts 19:11-12.
So, it is not a new thing, we just need an understanding of it to be able to tap into what he carries. Today, in the name of Jesus, no one here shall be an onlooker! You are leaving here a bonafide partaker of the free grace of God.
It wasn’t Paul at work, it was God at work through Paul. Acts 19:11-12. God did it through the hands of Paul flowing through the unction that is in Paul to reach out to the people. So, it’s not new.
The question then is, why is this mystery not working in every hand? It’s important to ask questions. Why is this mystery not working in every hand? Why do you hold the prophetic mantle in your hand and you are still defeated?
Without faith, it is impossible to move God. Everything works by faith in the Kingdom, outside of your faith and my faith, there is no access. Matthew 10:41. You can tap into what a Prophet carries without receiving that Prophet by faith as a messenger from God.
Luke 8:45-46. We are all thronging, somebody is touching by faith. He said to the woman “thy faith has made you whole.” It didn’t work for Peter. No!
He couldn’t tap the virtue there. No! But that weak woman, 12years flow of blood, reached out to Jesus and drew virtue out of Him. You can’t draw virtue out of the mantle without your faith, you can’t! But, this morning, I will like to quickly look through a few things that you need to check if you must be a partaker of any of these spiritual instruments of the Word of God that are ordained for our triumphant living.
Let me try to define a mantle as any clothing material taken from the hand of God’s Apostle and Prophet for the purpose of transmission of spiritual virtues but we must believe both in God- the source of that grace and His Prophets – the carrier of that grace that access them. 2 Chronicles 20:20.
