MAN ON ASSIGNMENT
8 messagesMan on assignment was preached in 2003; it was the first of messages released from the platform of Kingdom-Word Ministries. It sets out the fact that God sent us each unto the earth to fulfil a specific purpose.
A PATIENT WALK WITH GOD
4 messagesWe are pursuing righteousness and holiness; we want to be prepared for the Lord's use and for His return. But the world wants us to follow a path that leads to temporal success””things that will be burnt up at the coming of the Lord, and we must refuse. As we walk with the Lord, the temptations don't go away, and the Lord's demands don't become softer. But it is the one that keeps steadfast till the end that will be saved and will enter into a special and eternal destiny prepared by the Lord.
MAN'S SPIRITS AND THE JUDGEMENTS
6 messagesSpirits can be transferred. The characters and behaviour of people are in their spirits. Every spirit has a judgement written. We are a sum of the spirits we have drunken of; those that believe have especially the Spirit of Christ. There a thing called the spirits of just men made perfect, which is the goal of God in our lives. In this series, Pastor teaches these things and how to decipher the direction our lives are going by looking at the spirits we have in us. He also teaches how to reject the wrong spirits and take in the right ones.
THE SERVANTS OF GOD
8 messagesThough the Christian is a child of God, but the blessings are kept for those who accept the life of service. Being servants is a position of honour that Christians must accept so as to keep away the prodigal spirit. This series of messages shows how to live life according to the predetermined parameters of God, which include the predetermined purpose, place of abode, spouse, length of life, etc. There is a way to walk in these predetermined plans without missing them in the least bit.
THE DEFENCE IN PRECEPTS
6 messagesPrecepts are principles and guidelines that keep us on the right tracks in life. God gave us His precepts to shield us from evil and keep us in the centre of His will at all times. A wise Christian will exercise himself to obey all the precepts of God. Satan can never get hold of a child of God who is obeying the precepts. Knowing precepts and following them are superior to 'hearing' the voice of God in the life of the child of God
SOLDIERS OF THE CROSS
7 messagesChristians were saved to serve. They do not have the right to live the way they want, but only as the Lord wants. Redemption is a purchase by God; we now belong to Him. The blessings of sonship are laid up only for the sons that serve the Father. Anyone not serving automatically becomes prodigal. This is not a life of comfort; the things of our calling cannot wait until we have served our own personal agenda This series of messages is to help Christians live a life of purpose, which pleases the Lord and Master, so as to have the purpose of God prosper on the earth. This is to call every soldier in the Lord's army into a life of disciple, because a day of reckoning is fast approaching.
RUNNING THE RACE SET BEFORE YOU
10 messagesGod is a master-planner. His purpose and plan will ultimately come to pass, but He requires each one of us to do his or her part, and to be faithful in doing it. That is part of the true worship of God. This message series infuses the Spirit of God into believers so that they will know, walk in and fulfil the plan of God for their lives. In paying attention, you will learn how much God places His trust in His servants and how you must be careful not to disappoint Him.
THE SELECT ONES GOD USES
10 messagesThe Lord is seeking for fully committed believers who are dead to self, carrying their cross, cutting off worldly entanglements, with eyes set on heavenly things, keen on walking with God, loving righteousness, hating iniquity; people who this world is not worthy of. He is seeking such to be with Him, so that through them He can do what He wants to do on this earth. It is the time to release the true power of Christ on the earth again, but there must first be the prepared ones who can carry it without being crushed by the glory. True believers must answer this call.
PERFECTING THE LORD'S VESSELS
8 messagesOnce we are walking with God and producing good fruit, He begins to work on us to produce more fruit. The process was described by the Lord Jesus as pruning. Every child of God must aim for the maximum fruitfulness in their lives; that is what gives God the glory. We are not to be satisfied with anything less then the fullness of God in productivity in our lives. We must be willing to go through the process of God.
WANTED
6 messagesThere is a critical need in the vineyard of the Lord: Workers who are dedicated to God, who live a life of purpose, and whose Christianity is not a matter of convenience. Without such persons,the work of God will be frustrated on the earth.
THE CULTURE OF FAITH
23 messagesReligion is the reason behind the culture of people; Christianity therefore, if genuine will produce a new culture for believers and this will eventually affect. This series looks at the different character and ways change that are to be revealed in the lives of Christians as a reflection of the genuineness of their faith and as necessary requirements for the manifestation of the blessings which Christ procured for them but which is stored in the spiritual realm.
AGENTS OF FAITH AND LIGHT
7 messagesAnytime God wants to bless a people, He pours light upon someone and that person in turn is instructed to shine unto other people. Anytime we see darkness, it is an indication that we need to shine. The church is the means the Lord has ordained to redeem a people from the curse that is upon them. The child of God must shine by releasing the substance of faith into the environment and by doing good works which the Lord ordained for him/her to do. Without it there is no hope for a people in darkness. We are in a battle to reclaim in reality the nations and the peoples for whom Jesus sacrificed Himself. We will give account of how much of this we did one day before His throne.
THE PURSUIT OF GOD
11 messagesThe Pursuit of God In this series of teachings, Pastor Bankie shows how very few people are actually panting after God, and how there is a need in this hour to examine our goals concerning our walk of faith. God is not a tool for solving problems but is to be ours to pursue. We are to seek to know Him for who He is and derive joy from the knowledge of Him. That must be the goal of our lives. The Lord needs people who will work with Him on the earth through their contributing faith into their environment. This messages will set you on fire to seek the Lord in a new way
THE TRUE SERVICE OF GOD
18 messagesIn this set of messages, Pastor Bankie teaches again on the subject of How to Work for God, a subject he has spoken on in many places. The aim here is to being fresh light into this important subject. The messages examine how personal knowledge of God is the primary work and how to serve God in EVERY aspect of one's life as a believer, including how to use your money in the true service of God, not just trying to buy blessings from Him.
THE INCREASE OF HIS KINGDOM
13 messagesTHE INCREASE OF HIS KINGDOM The Lord can only advance His kingdom on the earth through the participation of the saints; there is no other way. Their actions come in 2 dimensions: the passive and the active. The passive action is to remain pure as the salt of the earth. Until there are enough kingdom-walking believers on the earth, walking purely, there will be no redemption. The active action is to preach the gospel, to spend money on it as a matter of priority and for each one to deplore his/her gifts in full. The prioritization in our living of the advancement of God's kingdom is a vital key to it's advance. In these messages, Pastor Bankie sounds the call to all Christians again to take up their crosses and follow Christ Jesus into the true spiritual war
THE KINGDOM LIFE
11 messagesTHE KINGDOM LIFE Christianity is not just about receiving the God of prosperity and having your problems solved; it is about the cutting of the umbilical cord that joins you to the environment. We must learn Christian culture. This series explains the culture that should be found with Christianity. There is a Hittiteness and Amoriteness that characterize each person's origin (Ez 16). The error in the lives of Christians is when the live with intact umbilical cords attaching them to the place of their natural origins. Paul Tillich's word that culture is the cloak of religion is explained in this series. There is a culture we must have in every aspect of life including how we spend money, use our time, run our endeavors, and even how we dress. The everyday living of life must reflect what indeed our religion is. Our religion as Christians is summarized as follows: Love for God Love for God's people and for the whole human race. Living for the eternal future, a life after now, knowing that we will give account. This is before a righteous God who is currently teaching us His standards The preaching of the kingdom Respect for the rules of God's kingdom. Led by Christ's Spirit.
THE HIGH CALLING
9 messagesTHE HIGH CALLING This series of messages seek to focus the child of God on the true purpose of life. It emphasizes again (as in THE HABITATION OF GOD) that Christ-likeness is the primary thing that God is doing in the lives of believers. That is the high calling - to be like Him. There is one such calling for every one of us Christians. This series also teaches children of God to focus on the things of eternity. As a matter of fact, one day we are all going to face the judgment seat of Christ. Among the things you will learn is how to use for faith effectively. Faith doesn't teach us how to get things; it teaches us how to become like Christ. It is when we are like Christ that life responds to us. Faith doesn't first teach us how to get things; it first teaches me how to relate with those things. It shows me that my life doesn't consist in the abundance of things which I possess.
THE MAN AND HIS IDENTITY

A LIFE OF PURPOSE
10 messagesA LIFE OF PURPOSE: There is a reason why you were created; there is a reason why you were born. This desire to know this reason is one of the greatest of all desires of mankind. You will never find satisfaction in anything until you locate the purpose of God for your life. The knowledge of God through Christ Jesus is the first thing to have; then there is the knowledge of your gifts. These and more are taught in this 10-part message series by Pastor Bankie.
