First Reading
Hosea 4

There are Seven Major Universities.

1. University of Bondage. Many people are unconsciously in bondage.
2. University of Fear.
3. University of Confusion. Confusion of gender.
4. University of Sexual Perversion. Homosexuality, bestiality, sex, etc.
5. University of Greed.  Lack of contemptment.
6. University of Pride.
7. University of Ignorance.

Jesus said: Know the truth and the truth shall set you free.

Hosea 4:6
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. (KJV)

Isaiah 5:13
Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because [they have] no knowledge: and their honourable men [are] famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst. (KJV)

A man had a dream, in the dream he was in a church and there was a funeral service. He joined in the singing with the congregation, and then suddenly he thought, who died? He looked at the pamphlet and realised that he was the one. Immediately, he started shouting that he is not dead.

A real child of God should rehearse his/her dream with God and claim the good and reject the bad.

Experimentation is ignorance. Your degree of ignorance will determine how much the enemy will defraud you.

Education cannot remove ignorance; however, knowledge will always triumph over ignorance.

Ignorance is not bliss, it is not peace; Ignorance is poverty, devastation, root and stem of evil.

Discussion is an exchange of knowledge while argument is exchange of ignorance.

Ignorance is like alcohol. Nothing limits intelligence as ignorance.

Ignorance is the parent of fear.

The most terrible triplets in the world: Ignorance, Power and Pride.

If the beard signifies intelligence, then the goat will be the most intelligent. Big mouth and small brains makes the greatest noise.

Our prayers must be tailored according to what we see. We need knowledge to be able to tailor our prayers.

Psalm 5:3
My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct [my prayer] unto thee, and will look up. (KJV)

Learn how to prayer: start in the morning, start from little timings like 10 minutes before graduating to 1 hour. Read the bible with absolute concentration and meditations.

When we study the bible: what do I learn, what sins should I confess based on this bible passage, what prayers can I derive from this bible study?

Powers assigned to use me as a sacrifice die, in Jesus name.

The mystery why people perform sacrifice is the because of the blood.

Memorising God's word is very important in getting closer to God. Continues review of bible verses inputs them permanently in the dream. We respond to demonic challenges in our dream/reality using the word of God.

Nothing is worse than practicing ignorance.

O God, arise and revive my soul, in the name Of Jesus!

My Father, My Father, My Father, give me personal Pentecost in the name of Jesus!

Ministering: Dr. D. K. Olukoya

Daniel 3:14-18 demonstrates the power of primitive faith. Shedrach, Meshach and Abednego dared the king.

The men of old moved in a realm where we are struggling to understand.

Throwing in the fire became their breakthrough.

Four miracles occurred because of their primitive faith.
1. The people that threw them in the fire died.
2. They gained their freedom - the
3. They saw, prayed and danced with the King of kings.
4. They were promoted.

Matthew 17:20

We need to change our attitude to prayers - no sit-down-look attitude.

Jesus aggressively confronted demons, yet we Christians are afraid of demons.
Jesus resisted temptation to the point of exhaustion, but we yield easily.
Jesus blasted money changers and threw their tables away, but we allow negative to thrive around us.
Jesus insisted that mountains must move; however, we believe in what will be, will be.
Those who are moving with God have grown beyond tithe, and God is blessing them.
People of primitive faith don't mind giving everything to God not just tithe or first fruits.
Jesus insisted that faith must be risky but we want to see before we believe.
Jesus never put up with unholy trespassers, but we rub shoulders with all sorts of people.
There is a kind of faith that refuses to back down; this kind of faith is allowed in the scripture.
There is nowhere in the scripture where we are told to be door mats and allow men to trample upon us.
There is nowhere in the scripture where we are told to tolerated powers of darkness.
When we get on our knees, we overcome.

A heavily pregnant woman was walking about to cross a railway line, she bumped into a Sango worshipper by mistake. This Sango worshipper was in company of his fellows. The woman apologised however, the Sango worshipper rejected the apology, insisted that she must beg. Vengefully, the Sango worshippers summoned fire from his mouth, Lagosians gathered around asking the woman to beg. She vehemently refused, instead told the Sango worshippers since you cannot accept my apology, I quench that fire in your mouth by the fire in the blood of Jesus. Immediately, the fire went off, and the Sango worshippers started hailing her.

Other examples of primitive faith:
1. David standing up to Goliath.
2. Elijah challenging the prophets of Baal.

The enemy might win a few battles; however, as Christians we should strive to win the war.
We keep challenging by the power in the blood of Jesus.
We should share in God's anger against the evil ones.
Sudden death, sudden glory. Keep fighting for Christ.
We serve a warrior God, we cannot pray once or twice and let go after few days.
We need holy desperation; we need bold, non-compromising faith.
Those who risked their reputation to be with Christ, end u winning.
Faith that does not get its hands dirty.
Primitive faith removes mountains.

Personal Questions
1. Am I a representative of Heaven?
