Handle Your Foundation by Apostle Johnson Suleman

Restoration Channel36:09

Transcription

The question was asked: for you to move from condition to conclusion, you must handle foundations. This is the narrative. You must handle foundation.

People are saved and they are born again. Their salvation gives them a better platform to address foundational problems. Altars. But don't let nobody tell you that once you're born again, what happened? All the altars, all the covenants, they are immaterial. Don't pray about them, just ignore them, just confess it. Listen, what needs warfare? Confession does not accept confession. There is a place of warfare. There's a place of intense prayer. There's a place of continuous pronouncement. Am I communicating right now? Who did sin, this man? Listen, if you don't stop, there is a saying that where if one kill papa, now papa go kill him. That's a lie. If no kill papa, now kill papa go kill him. You need to know what killed your father.

One time, Jacob gathered all his sons. All sons of Jacob, come. When he got to Reuben in Genesis 49:3, he said, "Reuben, unstable as water." Somebody say, "God forbid." Come on, talk. Say, "God forbid." He said, "Thou shalt not excel." Say, "God forbid." God forbid. He looked at Reuben. He placed a curse on Reuben. From that day, just Jacob said that thing. As Reuben go to war among other tribes, if they kill 300 people, all of them will be from Reuben. If they kill 50 people, all the men will be from Reuben because a word was pronounced.

One time, when they were doing the census, Moses looked at them in Deuteronomy 33 and discovered that the men of Reuben had been decimated. All the armies were relinquished. They were decimated. He looked at them and he screamed. In verse 6 of Deuteronomy 33, he said, "Let Reuben live and not die. Let not his men be few." Why? Because a word was spoken in the days of his father. There are so many of us now who are laboring because something was said years ago. There are some people who are from families where there are altars that are crying.

Okay, look at somebody like Moses. Do you know Moses in the Bible? Among everyone that walked with God, there are two people that God never joked with. It was Moses and who? I've taught you now. Moses and who? And Samuel. God will say, "Even if Moses and Samuel stood before me, I will not change my mind on the people." God will say, "If even if Moses and Samuel stood before me," in the book of Jeremiah, he said, "I will not change." That's to say these men, Moses and Samuel, they had an understanding of intercession and they knew how to buy into the heart of God.

One time, God said to Moses, "Step aside. Let me kill all these people. I brought them from Egypt. Now they rebel against me. Let me waste them." Moses said, "No problem. Go ahead. So that all their enemies will say that you brought them out of Egypt to come and kill them in the wilderness so that nobody will believe you again. Go ahead." God said, "Moses, Moses." He said, "He knew how to penetrate God." One time, God said, "I'm angry. I will kill all of them." Moses said, "No problem. I'm the one who went to Egypt to call them out. Kill me. Leave them." God said, "You are not the one who committed offense." He said, "But according to the laws, I can stand in place as a sacrifice. So kill me." God said, "This boy." So they knew how to buy into the mind of God. That's how powerful.

Concerning Moses in Numbers chapter 12, God said, "If there be any prophet," 12th chapter, 12 verse 6, "if there's any prophet, I spoke to them in dreams and visions. He said, 'But for Moses, not so.' I spoke to Moses face to face." I'm trying to lay a foundation on Moses' spiritual potential so that you understand who Moses was. Moses was a powerful guy. He walked with God. How did Moses end? Moses never saw the promised land. He never got in there. How? Why?

If you read Genesis chapter 49, if you go down from verse 6, 7, 8, 9 down, you will see when Jacob placed a word on Levi. He says, "Simeon and Levi, you are habitations of cruelty. Oh my soul, come not into their anger, for in their anger they kill a man. He said, 'They will not be joined in Jacob. They will have no portion in Israel.'" He was talking of a tribe called Levi. He said, "In their anger, anger, they killed a man. They will have no portion in Israel." Meaning they will never, anyone from this lineage will have no portion in the promised land.

Exodus chapter 2, verse one and two. A man from Levi married a woman from Levi. The same tribe that Jacob spoke against. A man from Levi took a wife from Levi, and they gave birth to a man called Moses. I'm talking of foundation, despite his work with God. If you read Numbers 12:3, the Bible says Moses was the meekest man. You know what meekness is? A man that is meek is a man, step on him, he avoids trouble. But one time, God says, "Speak to the rock." Moses struck the rock. He was angry. What brought that anger? Levi. The foundation that he, he came from Levi. And when he got angry, the Bible says he was not qualified to enter the promised land. Just like the prophecy came that none of them will have a portion in Israel. Where you are coming from matters. If it's not addressed, it affects where you are going.

Look at your family, and it becomes a problem. When in your family, at your current level, it appears you are the only shining star, your enemies increase. I told somebody yesterday, I said, "Having a glorious destiny is like having many properties." You know, properties, houses, buildings. The more houses you acquire, the more problems you invite. That is why people that have so many properties don't live long. Check most of them. I will tell you why. There are altars. People don't know why I avoid. You say there is this one, they say I'm not interested. There's this one, I say I'm not interested. There's this one, I don't want. People come to me a lot, I say I don't want. Say, "Why?" I say, "No, as every fund I have is for the kingdom." I'll tell you why. There are altars in locations. There are areas that have been dedicated that nobody will rise in this area. You went there, you bought a house. You have been enlisted for the battle there. Another location, nobody will ever rise. No story building will rise up in this place. You went there, you built a massive duplex. You inherited. So you have like, just imagine like 10 locations. You have 10 forces on you. So if they can't get you, they go for your children. Am I talking to somebody here?

The ass bishop advised us years ago. He said, "The more of those things you get, the more battles." You see battles, you don't know where you are coming from. Some people buy what they don't need. Are you following? I'm talking about cars you don't need. You enter into meetings you don't need. Why are you in this union? "In case I die, there will be somewhere to bury me." Can you see your dream for life? Sit down. Some people marry wives they don't need. How can a man in this current economy, you enter polygamy? In this economy, you enter polygamy? This economy, even if nothing advises you, economy should advise you. Am I talking to somebody here? Men can manage. Women can manage. Men can manage. Five loaves of bread and two fishes fed 5,000 men. Men can manage. The Bible never included the women. He said, "Aside women are children." Men, men can manage. Women can't. Don't tell a woman to manage. Women are not created to manage. Women are not wired to manage. If you want romance, have finance. They are not wired. There's no woman in this world who should be blamed for wanting a good life.

I was in the plane and a young man was that guy. I don't know where he came from till I landed. He was bombarding me with questions. Question. I said, "Hey, I want to ask you, why is it that women like money?" I said, "They don't like money." He said, "They do." I said, "They don't like money." Say, "They do." I said, "They don't like money." I said, "Just that you need to know your size." It is when you meet a woman that is not your size, you think she likes money. When you meet a woman that you are qualified to handle, you will know they don't like money. Anybody who says women like money is a broke person. That's the truth. They don't like money. Just that they are not yours. I'm talking so much in favor of women today. What happened? [laughter] Hello. Am I protocols on ground? The way some men are looking at me, I need to be guarded. I need protocols. Some men are just angry. Say, "What is papa saying today?" No. Wala. I'm being honest to you. Look for your size. As a brother, you want to approach a sister for marriage, check your size. Don't go to somebody that, as you are looking at her, no is obvious. No. No. You are seeing no. The no is just staring you like that. You look at the shoe, you can't afford it. You look at the hair, you can't afford it. And you still carry your leg, say you are led. Who led you? Who led you?

Somebody say, "In the name of Jesus, oh Lord, [screaming] today visit my foundations." Say, "In the name of Jesus, oh [screaming] Lord, today visit my foundation." Who did sin, this man or his parents? So a life of foundation is a life of questions. Question. Question. When your life is filled with questions, there is a foundational battle. Question. Some of you are asking yourself, "When will my story change? Who did I offend? Who is doing this to me? What is happening to my life? Why is my life like this?" Anytime your life is filled with questions, there's a foundational battle. "When will I get married? When will I have a child? When will I arise? When will things turn around? When will there be a change? I've been waiting and serving God." Anytime your life is filled with questions, there's a foundational battle.

There are so many who are asking questions. "When will my story change? When will I get a visitation?" You are asking questions. But God says every question has an answer. You are asking yourself, "When, when, when?" You are going through what I'm talking about right now. You are saying, "When will things change?" Listen, put your hand down. There are some of you, you know you are going through a battle, but you can't understand the battle. There's no kind of prayer you have not prayed. If only you know exactly what is happening. That is why the prophetic ministry is very essential. If only I know what is happening so I can address it in the place of prayer. "Who is after my life? Who is after my children? Who is after my husband? Who is after my job? Who did I offend? Why is my life a mess? Why is my life a mockery?" Foundations empower questions. Foundation empowers questions. Foundation.

There are so many people today. If your father, your mother, your parents, if they had contended altars, your life would have been better off. Some of the fights you are fighting and prayers you are praying and battles you are going through is a reflection of the ignorance and the spiritual laziness of your parents. If they are so, your deliverance today is the deliverance of your seed. Your deliverance today is the deliverance of your children. Your deliverance today is the deliverance of your siblings. Am I talking to somebody here?

Take your seat. I can go back and forth and give you stories. Take your seat and give you stories of families that have been covenanted. There are times. Can I talk to you? I went to a part of the west to preach. I was driving into the town. As I was driving in, please reduce the echo on this microphone. As I was driving in, I've told you the story. I saw a tree. By the tree, I saw two poles, one on the left, one on the right. And above it, the place is in Awka East. Above it, there was another pole with charms. I've told you the story, charms. So if you are entering that particular part, you must drive under because the pole, I mean, they are very high. You must drive under. You must walk through, whether on a bike or on a car. You must walk through it. So as we are getting close in the car, I said, "Stop." I looked up. I said, "No, I won't pass under this." Because the Lord said to me, "As people drive and pass under, they submit their wealth." As at that time, there was no light in that place, no infrastructure, no development. They submit their wealth. And as people were driving in, everything called virtue, called glory, called wealth was taken from them. So I came down from the car and I walked by the side of the pole. I don't know if you understand what I'm talking about. I walked by the side. Other people said, "This thing, there's nothing there." I said, "There's something I'm seeing." So I walked by the side of the pole. When they drove, I went back into the car. I looked at that. I finished the service. When the service was done at night, somebody say at night. I got some brothers. We drove there. We shook the pole. Shook the pole. Shook the pole. Did everything we could. One fell down, collapsed. We went to the other side, shook, shook, shook, collapsed. What I'm telling you is around 1998. Were you with me that day? Okay, you were with me that night. He was with me. So I have witness of what I'm saying. We now gathered all the charms. We put fire. I mean, burning that thing was another long story. When we burnt it, we went back to where we are staying. We didn't see anything. I was there for a program. The next day, the town was on fire. They summoned their chief priest. The chief priest said, "People should gather in the market square." They gathered, and the chief priest pointed a family that they are the ones that destroyed the charm. So we are there in the crowd. They're looking at them. They were talking that this man yesterday, when this is the man scattered. We're just looking at the fake chief priest. Very fake. I turned to around me. I said, "This man is not seeing anything." When I saw they about to lynch that man, I came out. I say, "Excuse me, I'm the one." The chief said, "No, you're not the one." I say, "Shut up. You have not seen anything. I'm the one. I said, but please let the oracle fight for himself. Let your God fight for himself. If things remain the same after now, you can come for me." Why did I give that illustration? People were going under. There are virtues being sold. There are many people who are following politicians and their life is useless. I'm not against politicians, but I'm saying there are politicians that take virtues from people, glory from people. There are, there are schools you have to be sensitive. There are schools you carry children to and they will never be brilliant. It's not a function of the school, it's covenants that have been entered.

As the woman opened the school, she was given an instruction that, "We need 40 children, we need 30." So imagine your child goes there without fire and becomes a victim of that covenant. There are certain businesses that can never do well in certain locations because one person has covenanted every shop in that location. That, "So long I'm in this location, nobody rises, nobody excels, nobody accelerates, nobody does well." And that [laughter] person stands there and I swallow the words of everyone. Stretch your hand to the altar. I make declarations under God. Everyone under the sound of my voice, whether it's a location, whether it's a covenanted business, covenanted locations to get you swallowed up and now you have become a victim of it. I speak your deliverance. I speak your deliverance. I speak your deliverance. I speak your deliverance. [music] I speak your deliverance. I speak your deliverance. I speak your deliverance. I speak your deliverance. I speak your deliverance. If your amen is louder, take the blessing. [music] [cheering] Take your seat.

Jabez was more honorable than his brethren. So, Jabez, listen. 1 Chronicles 4 verse 9 and verse 10. Now verse 9 shows you the blueprint, the original intention of God for Jabez's life. Jabez was more honorable, and his mother called his name Jabez. Now the word "and" is supposed to be "but." Jabez was more honorable. This is God's original plan that he will be a child of honor. He would be a man of honor. He will be an individual of honor. But the mother altered it. The plan of God was that he was going to be wired and blessed with honor. Anywhere Jabez entered, honor flows. Anywhere Jabez got into, he sees honor. But the mother called his name Jabez, saying, "I bear me sorrow." From honor, [screaming] his life became filled with sorrows because there was an involvement, a satanic involvement in the trajectory of his life. Am I communicating right now? So from honor, he slided into sorrow. So Jabez began to pray. Jabez called upon God, and the Bible says in 1 Chronicles 2:55, Jabez became a city founder. Jabez prayed, and he became the founder of a city. The Bible says the scribes that dwelt in Jabez. So Jabez came and became the founder of a city. The city where the elites dwell. So in the intercession, made an individual become an institution. Intercession moved an individual into becoming an institution. So it doesn't matter the family you come out from. What matters is the family you leave behind. You can be born in a mud house, but you can erect a modern house. So never leave your family the way you met it. Every family you are sent to, you have an assignment for.

So it doesn't matter the dimensions of hell. Wickedness is real. This is Africa. But if there is witchcraft, there is holy ghostcraft. Did you not see witchcraft and holy ghost craft in Pharaoh's palace? Moses dropped his rod, they became a serpent. The magicians dropped their rod, they became serpents. The rod of Moses went backward and swallowed the seven rods and did not increase in size. One serpent swallowed seven serpents and did not grow bigger. He summarized them to zero. He turned them to vanity.

Open your hands. I penetrate into your family line and I make this declaration right now as you hear the sound of my voice. Every altar that is speaking, altar that is crying, foundational altars, errors of your father, errors of your mother, errors that were made, every altar that is speaking against you, today that altar is shattered. [cheering] Whatever was done in your family that everybody is now suffering from, whatever was done in your family that everybody is now a victim of, I decree your freedom now. I decree your freedom now. I decree your freedom now. Take your seat.

Now, let me tell you something. Take your seat. There is something that sponsors foundational powers. Idolatry. In all you do in your life, never visit a herbalist. It's beyond consultation. There are implications. Idolatry sponsors from ne. Never visit a witch in all you do. No matter the pressure, if they tell you, "Go, that this will happen." Anything you need to visit a native doctor to get, let the thing go. Anything you need to involve witchcraft to acquire, please let it go. Because anything you get by witchcraft, you keep by a higher witchcraft. So it doesn't stop. It becomes a chain. Anything God keeps. So if you got a husband by charm, you need another charm to maintain him. And when somebody who has a higher charm. I saw a woman with children. One Bible study, she came and greeted me. I said, "How are you?" She said, "Fine." I said, "Wow, beautiful children. Where is their father?" She begins to cry. Said their father abandoned them. She heard that the man had an accident. The man died. She alone. I was emotional. I was insensitive. I said, "How do you survive?" I said, "Leave their school fees, leave your rent, leave everything. Every month, we'll give you some stipend." Thank you, sir. Oh Jesus. And I was doing that. I was doing that continuously. One day, the first ever women conference that this ministry had, we came back from a program. I was sitting down. Dr. Kingsley was with me, and I was very tired. So I noticed he stood up. He went outside and he said to me, "Please, sir, you have to come outside." I said, "What's the matter?" Said, "A woman is confessing." I said, "For me to stand up from this chair, they have to carry me because I'm tired." I was so tired, but I managed. I sunk at the outside, and behold, it was that woman who had been taken care of with her children. But this time, she was times three swollen. I said, "Jesus, what is happening? Where strength came from, I don't know what is happening to you." I go talk. What? What happened? She said she was sent from the witchcraft world to the church. I said, "But you are the mother of those children." He said, "Those are not my children. They are part of us." I said, "Part of? Wait, this is me, prophet." When you are too emotional, your gift stops functioning. Satan knew that the only way to get this man is his emotion. He's very sympathetic. So, let's penetrate. I was looking at this woman. What happened? She said they were threatening her that she has been around there for a long time and she could not do anything. So, they loaded her and I with so much stuff in her body. Normally, after service, you know, then after service, "How are you, ma? God bless you." I had to stop doing that. People don't know why we stop some things. Everybody come, "Hey, Papa, how are you? How are you?" So she was told, "As soon as I put my hand on her, something from her will enter my body and I'll begin to swell." But when she came and bent down, and she genuflected, actually went down, and I touched her, something from me entered her body. So she began to swell, and she was taken to the hospital, and it's called UBTH in Benin, and they brought her and said there's nothing they can do. He said, "Please, help me." I said, "Listen, I did all I could so that you can go to heaven, but since you took me as a project, you are free now to go to hell." And I walked away, and she passed out. I'm trying to let you know this is not to raise suspicion, it is to awaken sensitivity. You carried house pram. You carried this pram without spiritual vetting. Am I communicating here?

Don't be scared though. Don't be afraid, because the way you are looking uncomfortable now. There are altars and there are people that empower altars. I make declaration to you. Listen to this before you say amen. Your household, your children, your loved ones, they will not be victims of satanic agents. Permission, visit my father's house, visit my mother's house. Disconnect me from evil covenants and altars. Disconnect me from evil. What was entered into by anyone in my family, I'm not a part of it. Any ungodly covenant they entered, I'm not a part of it. Any agreement they entered, I'm not a part of it. Disconnect me. Say, "In the name of Jesus." In the name of Jesus. Louder than that. In the name of Jesus. In the name of Jesus. My father, my father. My father, my father. As I begin to pray, as I begin to pray, you have my permission. You have my permission. Enter my family. Enter my family. Disconnect me. Disconnect me from every evil covenant. By fire. Open your mouth and fire prayers. Heat. Heat. [music] Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. Yeah. Heat. Shut up. That's yeah. Heat. Yeah. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Heat. Heat. Oh Lord. Oh Lord. Oh Lord. Oh Lord. [screaming] [laughter] This is the next. Yeah. Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. N. Yeah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I am [screaming] [laughter] shore. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Heat. [screaming] Heat. Heat. Heat. Yeah. [laughter] Glory. Hold in Jesus name.
