Enlargement in the Spirit [0:03]
The video opens with a declaration of spiritual enlargement, emphasising the need to expand one's spiritual capacity to accommodate God's blessings and promises. It stresses that physical enlargement is preceded by spiritual enlargement, urging listeners to increase their capacity in the spirit to contain what God wants to bring into their lives. This involves making room for more of the Holy Spirit and preparing to receive an increase and multiply.
Building Capacity to Carry Glory [3:37]
The message shifts to the importance of building spiritual capacity to carry the weight of God's glory. It warns against desiring blessings without first strengthening the inner man. A strong spirit is essential to bear the weights of glory that God intends to bestow. The church is encouraged to build capacity to carry more of God's glory, bearing and carrying it effectively.
Enlargement Amidst Affliction [5:43]
The sermon encourages listeners not to allow afflictions to hinder their spiritual growth. Drawing from Exodus 1, it illustrates how the Israelites multiplied and grew despite oppression. Seasons of contention should be seen as opportunities to gain capacity in the spirit. Like Jabez, one should cry out to God for enlargement amidst pain and affliction, leading to the removal of burdens and broken yokes, as described in Isaiah 10:27.
Fighting for Your Enlarged Place [19:59]
The message highlights that life is a battlefield, and one must be willing to fight to enter into their inheritance. Drawing from the story of Isaac in Genesis 26, it illustrates the need for persistence in the face of contention. Persistence can wear out resistance, leading to an enlarged and fruitful place. God has made room, but one must build strength to contend with the enemy and enter into that place.
Borrowing Vessels for More Oil [23:47]
Referencing the story in 2 Kings 4, the video stresses the need for more "oil" (anointing) to deal with the enemy. When the enemy comes to take something captive, the solution is to borrow vessels in the spirit, making room for more oil. This increased oil empowers one to silence the enemy and protect their destiny. The midnight season reveals who has extra oil, emphasising the importance of being prepared with an abundance of anointing.
Proclaiming and Planting Heavenly Realities [33:49]
The sermon transitions to the power of proclamation and prophetic prayer. It teaches how to declare God's will over one's life, drawing from Hebrews 3:1, which speaks of Jesus as the high priest of our confession. Confession involves saying the same thing as what the word of God has said. Imitating God, as Ephesians 5:1 encourages, involves speaking forth the word and releasing the spirit to bring about creation and change circumstances, planting the realities of Heaven on Earth, fixing foundations, and uprooting wickedness.
Decreeing Enlargement and Divine Help [52:56]
The video concludes with declarations of grace, divine help, and enlargement. Listeners are encouraged to pray in the Holy Ghost and decree their blossoming and fruitfulness. The glory and favour of God are proclaimed upon their lives, with the assurance of increase and multiplication. The importance of continuing to enlarge the spirit and make room for more oil is reiterated, empowering believers to deal with the adversary and walk in dominion.
