New Wine by Pst Abioye

God has a sense of humor and can arrange things beyond our understanding. There are three ways God can visit a person: coming to their house, meeting them at a neutral place, or asking them to visit His house. When God visits your house, He will change your condition. When you meet Him at a neutral place, He will address your past and present. But when you visit His house, He will change your future and make you reflect Him. Enoch visited God's house and never returned because he saw something amazing. We should seek higher experiences with God. Paul had a similar experience when he went to the third heaven. We should expect to see things that will transform our future. The value of a liquid depends on the container it is in. We need a new wine scheme to receive the outpouring of new wine. We must build capacity to receive the new things God wants to give us. Challenges will come, but we must stay focused and prepared to stand. God wants to God has a sense of humor. There are times He arranges things beyond your understanding. When I saw your flyer that you will be coming here this weekend, I said, God have mercy. I said, this is a meeting point. I preached a message overnight. I said there are three visitations God can have with a man. I want you to picture God as a rich man. One visitation is that a rich man can visit your house. Is that correct? Another one is that he can choose a neutral place and ask both of you to meet there. When he visits your house, what he did is that he came down. The Bible says, and God came down in the cool of the day to come and visit Adam and Eve in their house. When he visits your house, he will never leave until he changes your condition. The second one is that he will say, let's meet in a place, and that means they met along. So the first one is come down. The second one is come along. And you know, when a rich man books a meeting with you, he won't choose a restaurant based on your pocket. He will choose it based on his own pocket, because he will pay. And when he meets you there, he will not only address what you are going through, he will listen to where you are coming from. But the last one is that he can ask you to visit him in his house. Because our theme there says, come up higher. When you go to his house, his house is not your house. I gave them an example of the first time I visited, one of these foremost bankers. There's a bank those years, he started with P, I forgot it. Maybe, I went to his house, I've never seen enter a rich person's house like that before. That's the first house I saw with five sitting rooms. You sit, you are allowed to sit in a sitting room according to your level. One to another, to another, to another. That was the first time I saw marbles. Beautiful antique marbles that they used to design a house. When you go meet a rich man in his house, he will not only address your past and your present. He will change your future too. Because he will let you know that from now and forth, you need to reflect me. And that is, come up higher. So, God and Enoch have been friends. So, God used to visit Enoch. He would come down. One day, they went along. A day came, Enoch said that, you have been coming all this while, let me visit your house now. He didn't come back again. Because when he got there, he saw something that he has never seen before. He said, it is better to build a tabernacle there and sit with you. I pray as God has called all of us on this mountain. He will pull us higher in the name of Jesus. Paul said, I don't know whether in the body or outside the body. When God came down for Paul, he saved his life. He turned him from sob to poor. When God came along with him, he transformed him. He was in Arabia for some years where he was going through transformation. But there was a day, he said, I don't know whether it is in the spirit or outside the spirit. I traveled. I went like a man to the third heaven. And when you go there, sir, you see unspeakable things. It is your eyes that will see it. But not everything will your mouth be able to see. I pray for you on this mountain. Things that you will see that will transform your future. May the Lord release them to you in the name of Jesus. It shall be a new experience. So shall it be. In Jesus' name we pray. Hallelujah. Celebrate the Lord one more time. Happy reunion to all of us. Amen. I want to thank God for our pastor, his wife, and his team. Every day in and day out that we know that there is a prophet called Youth Prophets 8. It gives us joy. Because God has been so good to us that everyone that has passed together with us, he kept lifting all of us up. Hallelujah. When we had a session there in the evening yesterday, I introduced Pastor Alex Tapere as the pastor in charge of Youth Prophets 4. Hallelujah. Youth Prophets 15 is going to start 1st of September. Pastor Larry Adedokun is going there as the pastor in charge of Youth Prophets 15. God either one way or the other. He orchestrated the fact that he is producing champions at one level or the other. And that the vision is alive. That the church of God is marching forward. We give glory to God. And I want you to put your hands together for yourself and for the leadership team. Thank you very much for dimming its feet to give us this honor. God bless you. I've been asked to share in your joy. Can you please sit down for just a few minutes. I've been asked to share in your joy. I was almost going to ask for the wine. Because I saw the new wine. Luke chapter 5 from verse 36. And he spake also a parable unto them. No man putteth a piece of a new garment upon an old. If otherwise then both the new maketh a rent. And the piece that was taken out of the new agreat not with the old. And no man putteth new wine into old bottles. Else the new wine will bust the bottles and be spilled. And the bottles shall perish. But new wine must be put into new bottles. And both are preserved. No man also having drunk old wine straight away desired new. For he said the old is better. Thank God for all the arrays of speakers that have been asked to speak. We have been feeling the vibes and the anointing. But when we were coming from the farm. I was asking somebody. It's a deliverance session going on there. You know because somebody was really vibrating here. I said the devil is in trouble. So maybe when I grow up I will be able to preach like them. Because I'm still growing. I hope you know that. But I'm going to charge you on what I call a new wine scheme. A new wine scheme. The importance and sustenance and the value of any liquid. Has a lot to do with the container that is used to package it. The importance, the value you place on any liquid. Has a lot to do with the container you use to package it. If you hold pure water on your left hand. And bottled water on your right hand. Even when you don't know their value. Before somebody asks you, which one do you think is most expensive? You already know this is the bottled water. Sir, do you know it might be the same water they put inside it too? The packaging. It makes you to know one is more valuable than the other. Hardly would you see a company that wants to rebrand their product. I've not been around in this world for too long ago. For about, you know, close to five decades. I've seen a lot of rebranding. A number of times, contents don't change. It's the container they change. That's why they change. Does anybody understand what I'm talking about? I thought I'm the only one who is youth look and youthful. But he's already advancing in age. At least you witness Coca-Cola. You know that they keep changing the bottle. Not the content. In our quest for the outpouring of a new wine, we need to ask God for a new wine scheme. The Bible has warned us, it says else we will waste the wine. And waste the wine, you know the winescape. If we put new wine in what? In an old winescape. There are many of us that desire something new. But the challenge is this, we have not built capacity to receive them. The old represents something outdated. Something that has outlived its usefulness. Something weak. Something ineffective. Many a times, everyone wants to release new wine. But they are constrained. Why? Because God does not waste resources. He will not want the wine to spill away. I've shared before, those of you probably heard me say. I was praying to God, asking for power. Asking for the anointing. And he said to me. I said, when you put an empty bottle in a flowing river, what happens? I said, I know. The bottle will not stay. You will be seeing the bottle. And you know, as the bottle is doing that, it can't allow much water to get into the bottle. But you know, and the water is flowing. God said, the water is ready to enter the bottle. Only if the bottle can stay its head. He said, so I am more interested in filling you, than you are interested in me, coming. He said, stay your head. That's why you see me that, I try to stay my head. Because at times, jumping here and there from pillar to post, it doesn't make a man to receive the correct anointing. I just told your brothers, sisters and colleagues downstairs now. Many of us, our scripture for now is eat, because your journey is far. You thought you have started your journey. You are joking. If Elijah had known that the day will come that 450 prophets of Baal will stand against him. He would have stayed longer in the present. But thank God, he did stay there. At least a little while. How was a man able to slaughter? Have you slaughtered chicken before? You know how easy it is? Have you slaughtered ram before? Have you seen video of those who want to slaughter cow? That they will force you 30 minutes to fight? A man slaughtered 450 prophets of Baal. You don't wake up on the plate of Mandediam. I am going to do that. Listen to me friends and colleagues. Challenges have not come up. They are coming. They are coming, why? Because darkness covers the earth. And the gross darkness is upon the people. And that's why God is preparing you and I to be able to stand. There is a video that went viral a year ago. A magician that was walking on water. Can you imagine you go for a crusade and such a man shows up? Many say, why are you listening to this man? Can he walk on water like this? So what will you begin to say? Our father who art in heaven. Hallowed be thy name. Heaven wants to release so much. But they are afraid. If we have the capacity. 2 Kings chapter 2 from verse 19 to 22. I am going to draw a case study there. I will mention about 5 things. And I am going to pray for you. And the man of the city said unto Elisha. Behold I pray thee. The situation of this city is pleasant as my Lord seeth. But the water is not and the ground barren. And he said bring me a new cruise. And put salt therein. And they brought it to him. And he went forth into the spring of the water. And cast the salt in there and said. Thus saith the Lord. I have healed this water. Every area of your life that need healing. You receive it on this mountain. There shall not be from thence any more death. Or barren land. So the water was healed unto this day. According to the saying of Elisha. Which is fake. What do you need to know about the new wineskin? Number 1. The man of Jericho ran to Elisha for the new wine. Question number 1. Who do you run to? In your own day of challenge. And where do you run to? Who do you run to? And where do you run to? Do you know it's amazing to hear at times. That pastor goes to have a list. I have always asked the question. When they get there. How do they introduce themselves? You know Abba Lins will give them some cowries. And say speak to it. So that I can use it to consult for you. So can you imagine? Abba Lins collect the cowries. And he said. Ifa. Brother Benjamin Luwaba Elinu. Eh? Brother Benjamin. Uloba Ifa. How? How? How? Who do you run to? Is it the God that has not delivered your forefathers? Or the old Epa? Who can't help himself? You want a new wineskin? You must know the right place to go. That's why I don't expect anyone of us to be on this mountain. And you are still wasting away. And you spend a good time just playing it off. Except you have somewhere else you want to go. Some of us don't have somewhere else. When we get to the presence of the Lord. We want to get as much connected as we needed to. So that when challenges of life come. We can speak. We can speak. All of them run to Elisha. As a man of God. Who will need the new. The new life. A new order. And the man says. Give me a new cruise. Number two. Is that these people got tired of the old order of events. Ezekiel 21, 25 to 27. Ezekiel 21, 25 to 27. You must get tired of the old wine. You must get tired of the old wine. I challenge some of our pastors. I know it doesn't happen among you here. Every of your CSR reports. You submit it on time. Am I correct? No, I know it doesn't happen here. I know before your leaders post something on the platform. 100% compliant. Does it not amaze you. That every month in and month out. The name of your parish keep reflected. Pastor. Who will get to church on Sunday. And we say brethren. Obedience is the first law. And they keep bringing your name. Every month. Shower of blessing. I hope there is no shower of blessing here. Shower of blessing parish. CSR report. You are the one delaying also. January. February again. Shower of blessing. Your robust says. You must get to a level that. If they will mention your name on the platform at all. They will say let's clap for this one. Because they are always compliant. There must be a change. You must get tired. Of the old order. I remember those years. When I used to look for job. Before job started looking for me. When they ask me to sell myself. There is something I always say. They will say what are you? What are your strengths? I walk under little or no supervision. So the glory of God. Is still manifesting in the ministry. Tell me what you want me to do. Go and rest. I will do it. I don't need you to cajole me. I don't need you to push me here and there. Once you tell me this. I need to deliver by this time. I start walking towards it. That should be. The something. You know that every child of God. Should walk towards. A new. Line. The old. Must be tired. The old must be tired. The old represent miscarriages. The old represent curses. The old represent environment. Environment that may be fascinating. But there is no outcome. You must be tired of the old. Number three. Elisha required of them. A new container. A new container. What does that represent? A new attitude. A new orientation. A new approach to the things of the Lord. A new passion. A new attitude. A new passion. A new lease of life. You must get to a level. Where you say. Things has to be new. If there is something that has been going on in my mind. In the past three weeks. Can we put every old achievement. Inside the cupboard. And let's begin to set a new goal. So wherever I go. I have a small booklet with me. What are the things we want to achieve. In the new year. What are the things we want to achieve in the new year. You know. Some people make noise. Some make news. You must desire the new. You must desire the new. Have you not wondered at times. That same church. You say can't grow. Somebody comes to start. You know his ministry around you. And he's already giving you a run for your money. The same people. Nothing has changed. A pastor was in the office one day. And he had the idea. Speaking with a friend. And he said. I like that your church. I enjoyed the service that day. The service was so fantastic. You know that. When they say it was offering time. Everything I had in my pocket. About 2,800. I dropped everything. A pastor ran out of the room. You know. You want more than 50, 50 Naira. At 100, 100 Naira here. You can go and drop about 2,000 plus. Somewhere. Don't blame her. How does your environment look. Is it not the environment of God. The environment of 50, 50 Naira. How does your salmon. Sound. Is it not a salmon. That the person and the salmon are disconnected. So when you now say it is time to give. The new is springing up today. I say the new is springing up. You must. You must desire the new. Number four. Which is key. The Bible says. Elijah went to the source. Of the problem. A new wine is good though. Can you go to the source. Of what has been making the old. Can you go to the source. Do you know any moment you change. Something about the source. Everything. Will change. Everything. That source. May be. Your perspective. That source. May be. Motivating factor. That source. May be. Association. You need a new wine. You need a new wine. In your life. You need a new wine. In your home. There are homes that are under threat. It is not because the man is not born again. Neither is it because the lady is not born again. But there is an old wineskin. That needs. To be dealt with. Somebody sent me. I mean. The query. She needed answers. And she was reporting. Her husband. She said. Sir. This man does not cater for me. He does his work. I sustain myself. With the meager job. I sustain myself. With the meager job. I sustain myself. With the meager job. I am doing. Married woman. And the children. And every Sunday. He will preach. He will pick microphone. I am going to talk to the membership. Did you know there are times. There are testimonies. I hear for the first time. From my husband. On the altar. And she began to put a lot of things together. Side by side. And I was like. Can we actually look deep. And analyze this thing. Does somebody think. Ministry is separated. From your life. So they can do ministry. They come and do marriage. No wonder the life is complicated. No wonder the life is complicated. Your life must be. A one channel life. I read the book of Job. Do you know that one of the outstanding thing. In the book of Job was integrity. And three people spoke about Job's integrity. God spoke about it. His wife. Spoke about it. Even Job himself. Spoke about his integrity. No wonder he was the richest. Of all the men in the east. God called the devil. Satan come here. Have you considered Job. A man of integrity. Sir. I don't care what you say you are. Who God says you are. Matters to me. What is God saying about me now. What is he saying about you. He said when I would have healed. He said when I would have healed Ephraim. The sin of Judah always come to my mind. He said the integrity. The integrity. The woman came to him and said. Cause God and die. Why are you holding on to your integrity. So she knew. That he has. One night they ask your wife. What can you say about your husband. What can she say about you. What can she say about you. What can your husband say about you. He said I would have been a Christian. If not for Christians. If this is how Christianity should be. I don't think I want to be one. You can't fake what you do in the house. Come to church. Create another one. There are people who could see through. But Job said. Even if he slay me. I will yet trust in him. He said my integrity. I will not compromise. And God looked at him and said. This integrity issue. You need to go to another level. Brethren. New wine is good. New wine skin. Is necessary. Why? So that new wine. Can be preserved. It doesn't cost God anything. To pour new wine on all of us. But he will check us off. Can I pour it? Won't I waste it? Can I empower you? Can I lift you high? Can I move you to another realm? Have you built the capacity. To hold it. We should not see anyone of us. Who will leave this place. Without a taste. Of new wine. But remember what I said. If you go to meet the rich man. Alone. At the restaurant they can serve you a wine. But when you go to his house. He can pack some bottles. And give it to you. Take it home. If God wants to pour new wine now. Who has the sack? Who has the bag? Who has the container? To take it home. Why? Because the new wine does not stop with you. It does not stop with you. You are to be. A carrier of the wine. And go and give to a generation. But God needs to taste it. Very very well. I give you this illustration. And I'm going to ask you to pray. If you look into your kitchen. I don't know if it has happened to you before. You poured hot water into your basin. And the pipe under your sink. Wrapped up. It has happened before? Alright. Has it also happened before? You poured steamingly hot water into your basin. And it passed through. Aha. You know the difference? What? The quality. We will say. But quality is a general word. The material that the pipe is made of. The difference between the two materials. Is what the scientists call impurity. A pure pipe. Allows hot water to go. An impure pipe. It will wrap. And you will not. You will see everything damaged. God said to me. Son. The purer you are. The easier it is for me. To flow through you. You can also put. Those of you who are physicists. Can also put that into. Electricity conduction. Have you? There are some. Materials. To conduct electricity. All those. I don't know if you have used. Extension box before. And the moment you plug your eye up. You will think it is Christmas light. Have you? You just see. If it is from here to there. Everything will melt. Go and check the wire. It is made of a certain material. Well if you pass under 110 KV. You know overhead. They don't use some wire. To have yoga. To carry that one. You know what I love most about that? That is where you will know. That electricity can speak. Be hearing. And you pass under it. Nothing will happen to you. But touch and see. That the Lord is good. When God passes new wine through you. Physically you might not look changed. To those who have seen you. But let them touch you. Then they will know. When they went from city to city. From nations to nations. He suffered no man to do them wrong. He rebuked kings for their sake. And he said. Touch. He has warned them. Touch not my anointed. And do my prophet. Know her. He who touches you. Has tortured the apples of my eyes. Nobody watches another putting finger into his eye. He reacts. Involuntarily. When you carry the new wine. Heaven will have to protect you. Because your wine must not spill out. It must be for the betterment. Of nations. Rise on your feet. And let's pray. Ask God. Father I thank you for the new wine. But please give me a new wineskin. Give me a new wineskin. Give me a new wineskin. Give me a new wineskin. New attitude. New oil. New paradigms. New horizons. Lord give me. A new wineskin. Everything I must not take out of this. Retreat. Let them die on this altar. Let them die on this mountain. Please tell the lord almighty. Please tell the lord almighty. Father. A new wineskin. A new wineskin. A new wineskin. Give me the new wineskin. I know it is not difficult for. At the wedding in the canal of Galilee. You give them new wine now. Even the water you turn to wine. Was the water that was used to be used for ablution. You turn it to wine. Lord I pray. Give me a new wineskin. Don't let my wine waste oh. Don't let it waste. Don't let it waste. I need a new wineskin. Give me a new wineskin. Give me a new wineskin. Give me a new wineskin. Don't let it waste. I need a new wineskin. Lord please give it on to me. Please give it on to me lord. Give it on to me. Give it on to me. Even when I fall young. Even when I fall young. You steal the whole night. From out of my soul. Night to day. I think about your mercy. I think about your grace. Now you divorce my soul. Every night I pray. Every night I pray. Daddy where the pie. Daddy where the bread. Oh heaven you're my home. Now you there give me rest. Now you there give me rest. When I look around. I see your faithfulness. I bow down on my knees. Now you wear me down. Daddy daddy where the pie. Daddy where the bread. Forever you're my lover. Now you there give me rest. When I look around. I see your faithfulness. I bow down on my knees. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down.

Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Now you wear me down. Renewed energy. Renewed vision. Renewed oil. Renewed anointing. Father, Nobody drives a car for one year without changing the oil. He will take it for service. And we have come to serve His whole Lord to be serviced. Every old oil. That you need to remove from our engine. So that our engine can perform at optimum level. Father, please do in the name of Jesus. The journey is far. Old oil can't carry us. That's why we need a new one. Let the new be released. I pray for all your children, oh Lord. This new year. Nothing missing. Nothing broken. Every area where they have been meeting brick walls. You are the way. Open doors for them. In the name of Jesus. Whatever we lost in Adam, we gain in Christ. Everything they have lost along the line. Father, let it be a season of restoration. Pray for your prophecy. It shall be from glory to glory. From grace to grace. From victory to victory. Every of their thoughts, imagination. To advance the course of the work. Father, bless it with your grace. Pray for our leader, his wife. And everyone that heaven has chosen to assist them. Every pastor, every minister, worker, membership. Continue to lift everyone up. Let it be evident. Let it be evident. Because eight is the number of new beginnings. That there is a new beginning. Let nobody leave this mountain empty. Give us a new one. Give us a new wineskin. And let your name be glorified. Whenever we hear from them, oh Lord, let it be good news. Thank you, Heavenly Father. In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Thank you very much.
