Many are looking for mantles like people queuing for petrol during scarcity.- Awe Hilary

On the 1st of October, 2025, I received three (3) ministrations at around 9:30 pm to 9:35 pm, while I was stepping out of the house, and I had to do a voice recording on it, so I don't forget. While I considered the ministrations to be personal, one of it deals with the issue of mantles. 

The key points from that ministration highlights three realities;

1. The subject of mantles is being abused in our generation.

2. Everything a believer needs, have been provided.

3. The problem with many believers today is with the "KNOWING", not because what should be known is absent, hence what is not known cannot be applied.

✍️ Mantles are real, but the first and the greatest mantle of any believer is the knowledge of his or her authority in Jesus Christ. This is the foundation for every believer in Christ, and the greatest challenge for many believers. It is becoming easier to believe a man of God for mantles, than believe Jesus Christ who is the custodian of our authority in God. There is a culture of dependency being created from both sides - Pulpit and Pew, which tries to take away Christ from the picture.

✍️ Mantles in the new creation realities, is the level of expression of the Holy Spirit in a vessel, and not the vessel itself. So when we see a man or woman of God, or a believer expressing the power of God, it is actually the level of the expression of the Holy Spirit in that vessel, and not the vessel itself. Hence all glory goes to God, because without Him, you can't do anything. So while you seek to hold people's legs, so you can tap anointing like a palm wine tapper, you should seek for the Holy Spirit to become more expressive in you.

✍️ Mantles in the new creation realities, are power transfers which unveils what is already in the believer, and helps him or her to keep expressing it for the benefit of the Kingdom of God. It does not create anything new, it unveils by bringing to light what was not initially known. If it's not known, it can't be applied, and if it is known and not applied, it fizzles away or becomes dormant. The power of God helps to stir up giftings that lie beneath.

- Some are healing ministers, but they have never prayed for the sick, because they don't know that the healing gift was right inside of them. Others knew, but they never applied it by constantly praying for the sick, hence the gifts were no longer active in expression.

- Some are teachers, who are meant to disciple their environment and nations, but they are not aware. Some are missionary doctors, others are leaders to their countries and Nations at large, but are still looking for mantles from the shoe and sucks of ministers who discovered the secret by tarrying with God.

✍️ Mantles flow with purpose. The Holy Spirit will express Himself at the corridor of your purpose. This is why preachers like Dr. Myles Monroe hammered on it. The Spirit ministered to me saying, if a man who is meant to be a pastor, becomes a banker, he has wasted his existence on the earth.

Let me stop here.

Stop the search for men, but seek God earnestly. In your seeking of God, He can lead you to a son or daughter, but don't make the search of men your goal.

While I reminisced on this, the life and times of Baba Uma Ukpai became worthy of note. Thesame man that we all celebrate today, even in death, had a time in his life when nothing was working. He did not go looking for mantles, he sought God earnestly, to the point that his wife thought he would die. He was desperate to seek God, and he found Him, and everything changed. The men and women who had the privilege of coming in contact with him, will almost relate thesame experience of being in the presence of an oracle.

Please note the following;

1. That the Holy Spirit is in you, does not automatically translate to your knowledge of Him. You need to seek Him, to know Him.

2. That the Holy Spirit is in you, does not automatically translate to your knowledge of His steps and His deep mysteries. He needs to show you and guide you, and it requires intimacy.

3. That the Holy Spirit is in you, does not automatically translate to His workings in your life, if you do not draw from the well of His depths.

🎺 It is time for my generation to seek God in honesty and purity.

🎺 It is time for us to separate ourselves from the world and it's ways, if we desire to see the power of God in our lives.

🎺 It is time for us to hunger for the fulfilment of God's promises in line with His agenda for our lives.

"If you know what the bible promises and you look at where you are, you will cry everyday" - Dr. Uma Ukpai.

Baba, Uma Ukpai, may you continue to rest in power, and may your exit from this world stir up more men and women to seek the Lord like you did, and may they see what you saw in the Lord, Amen.

Story of how LESTER SUMRALL met with HOWARD CARTER

LESTER Sumrall was a 20th century giant of faith, and worldwide missionary statesman, who demonstrated the power of the gospel in his pastoral and evangelical ministry. He also had a personal relationship with Smith Wigglesworth. And travelled widely with Howard Carter. This, culled from Dr. Sumrall's 'Pioneers of Faith', is the story of how he met Mr. Carter. It was 1932. Brother Lester was 19, and brother Howard was 41: I was sitting in a little church in Tennessee looking at the young man who was leading the music. Suddenly, the scene before me vanished, and I saw thousands of Japanese, Chinese, Lndians, Malaysians, Indonesians, Indians, Africans, Latin Americans, Europeans and people from the ocean islands on one road going one direction ...Trembling and crying, I asked, "What shall I do?" God said, "You have to go to these people." I said, "I don't like those people. I have never seen a Japanese person in my life. I don't know tho...

THE OLD CONVENANT IS A SHADOW OF THE NEW CONVENANT [pt 4] - Min. Awe Hilary

It is an interesting fact to know that 99.99% of most religions practiced today are imitations of either the Mosaic law as given to the Jews by God or idolatry as invented by men through the interface of spiritual entities as a way of worship. Idol worship and the Mosaic law are the oldest well known religious institutions that have existed on the earth. The Mosaic law which is the Old Convenant is a shadow of the New Convenant which could not come into effect as long as the law was still in place. Hebrews 9:8 [AMP]: By this the Holy Spirit signifies that the way into the Holy Place [the true Holy of Holies and the presence of God] has not yet been disclosed as long as the first or outer tabernacle is still standing [that is, as long as the Levitical system of worship remains a recognized institution]. More also, if the Old Convenant is a shadow of the New Convenant, then it signifies that they both have One Spirit [The Spirit of God], same pattern with different realities but one purp...
