Topic: THE MYSTERY OF VIRTUE TRADERS
Text: Luke 6:19, 8:46, Proverbs 7:5–18, 23
Minister: Dr. Daniel Olukoya (G.O. MFM Worldwide)

Everything you see in the physical world has a spiritual counterpart. It is actually the spiritual that first existed before the physical. So when somebody says peace, that peace is a spiritual entity. It exists as a tangible body in the spiritual realm. And because of that, peace can be released, withdrawn, or transferred.

Joy, too, is an entity. It can be withdrawn, transferred, or stolen; in fact, anything can happen to it. When you say blessings, the word “blessing” refers to an entity in the spirit realm.

It can go back, go forward, be transferred, withdrawn, hidden, and dealt with the way you would deal with a physical thing. When you say breakthrough, it is a spiritual entity that exists in the spirit realm as something that can be seen, withdrawn, deflated, removed, or hidden. Please try and understand this well.

This is why Jesus told his disciples, “When you are about to enter a house, say, “Peace be unto this house.” If a child of peace is in that house, your peace will reside upon his life. But if there is no child of peace there, your peace will go back to you.”

Jesus made that clear. During the last PMCH, we were sharing from the book of Genesis 48, where two children were brought for prayers. The elder one was at the right hand of Jacob, and the younger one was at his left hand. There is something about the right hand. It carries the larger breakthroughs. But the father crossed his hands, thereby transferring the virtues.

So virtues are spiritual entities that can be stolen, hidden, transferred, or destroyed. It is a serious matter.

Luke 6:19 tells us more about this virtue transfer.
“And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and he healed them all.”

So that virtue can go back and forth.
Luke 8:46 (KJV) “And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me.”

This was Jesus talking. When somebody, for example, comes from a polygamous home, virtue transfer can happen. I have seen a family like that before. The first wife decided that until all her daughters were married, no daughter from any other wife would marry.

Meaning that if it took 20 years for her children to be married, others would not be married. How was she able to do this in the world of wickedness in the spirit realm? All she did was transfer the virtues of other ladies in the family to her own daughters’ virtues.

This is why I am praying for anybody here today: Any power that has ordered your virtues to move away, with a sevenfold amen, recover them, in the name of Jesus.

Philippians 4:8 (KJV): “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.”

Virtue:

• is therefore a spiritual entity.
• Can move from person to person.
  Can be spiritually transferred.
• Can leave with or without permission. After all, even someone moved virtue out of Jesus by faith, although it was a positive one.
• Can be moved by spiritual means. There are warehouses and banks in the dark kingdom that keep what belongs to people there.
• are extraordinary qualities given to us by God to fulfil our purposes and mandates on earth.
• is a power given to us by God to make things in and around us better.
• is a general quality of goodness in a person.
• means potency.
• means chastity, especially for a woman.
• is an effective force and power.
• is a spirit of excellence planted in your life.
• is a glory aura around you.
• is the power of distinction and strength.
• is a divine deposit.
• is an ability to succeed,
• is the ability to be creative.
• is our doorway to breakthrough and prominence.

So if these are all definitions of virtue, then do not be surprised that in the spirit realm, there are virtue traders. They steal, take away, and hide the virtues of people. It is a day of disaster when virtue is stolen from the womb. It is a day of disaster when virtue is stolen from the life of a baby. It is even more horrible that many people are completely unaware that their virtues have been stolen.

What is virtue? Virtue:

• an extraordinary gift from above.
• The special ability that God hides in a human when they are coming to this world. God never sends anybody into the world empty; they are loaded with assignments and mandates to come and fulfil. Whether the person will be able to access it or display it is another story entirely.
• a reserved power.
• an unused greatness.
• Unseen honour. This is a very serious matter indeed, and it is worthy of prayer, a hard spiritual fight, and fighting in a way that you will pray and sweat. If the powers that have stolen it have died, you even need to intensify your prayers more.

I was praying for a sister when MFM was on Old Yaba Road, and she was seeking fruit of the womb. Each time we gave her a prayer point, she would see a bottle turned upside down. I did not understand it on time. We started praying, and one day God said, “Tell her to ask her father about what you keep seeing, if he knows anything about any bottle.” She went to her father to ask. The man said, “Oh, my God. I have forgotten. It is true. You know you are a very beautiful girl. So when you were in school, we did not want you to get pregnant; we wanted you to finish unscathed.”

“So a native doctor did something for us in a bottle. He said we should turn it upside down and hide it under the bed, and that as long as the bottle is upside down, even if you sleep with 1,000 men, you will not get pregnant. But he told me that anytime you are married, you should come back, so we turn the bottle the right way. But now the man is dead.” Imagine that virtue transfer. The transfer agent who should reverse it is dead. So the only way out is through divine intervention.

Can you raise your right hand and decree this loud and clear? This is a decree and order.

My stolen virtues, where are you? Come back, in the name of Jesus.

That virtue is:

• that which people can salute in you.
• That which people can acknowledge in you.
• What is in you that God has put there that people bow for, that people doff their hats for.
• That thing that makes you stand out.
• That for which people can create a song for you.
• That which people can celebrate in your life.
• The embodiment of your destiny. It is not something to leave in the hands of the enemy or think, “Well, I think I have everything.” You may be operating at 20 percent, 30 percent, or 60 percent. You will do well to recover them all. You will do well to pursue, overtake, and recover your virtues from the hands of the virtue traders.
• the glory formed upon your life and given to you from birth.
• Your destined glory and blessing deposited into your life by the almighty for.
• The thing in you that amounts to excellence, skill, and wisdom.
• That thing in you that people pay to come and see.
• That thing in you that people will reward you for.
• that people see in you and get you celebrated.

Virtue traders have strategies and methods to steal, trade with, and transfer virtues. Virtues can be transferred through:

1. Sexual sins: can transfer virtues.
2. Prophetic manipulation: somebody is giving you totally false prophecies, telling you what God did not say about you.
3. Handshake with demonic agents.
4. Exchange of goods and gifts.
5. Evil laying on of hands.
6. Household wickedness: The truth is that if you talk about a black man; by the time the issue of domestic wickedness is removed from his affairs, 90% of his problem is solved.
7. Sin.
8. Spiritual carelessness.
9. Bad dreams.
10. Placental carelessness.
11. Foundational powers.
12. Blood covenants.
13. Evil friends: they can take you to places that will steal your virtue from you.
14. Attending demonic parties. Many parties look like parties of celebration, but they are parties of virtue transfer.
15. Making your head available to demonic people. You want to make your hair, and so for 2 or 3 hours, you sit down and somebody is manipulating your head. Anything can happen to your head, no matter where you are.
16. By visiting native doctors.
17. Giving out your clothes for people to wear and then collect them back to wear.

But the Bible says something very strange, which has turned many men and women from prophets to parrots and from heroes to zero. It is “the strange woman.” This is a very serious matter. We can also call them strange people. Men and careless sisters that are here, listen carefully.

The devil can recognise precious lives from afar. The devil can recognise men and women with potential and when God’s hand is upon a person.

So one of the most successful devil’s agents and missionaries of virtue trading and transfer is strange women or people.

Strange people are those whose behaviours, in a certain sense, show that they are showing the seeds of fornication in others’s lives. An innocent brother or sister who has been innocent and living a holy life could fall easily for these strange people. There are a lot of people who have been deceived into having sex. Some do not know how they got into it; they realise they were taken advantage of by strange people. Fornication is not an easy sin to deal with because sometimes those involved have a hard time overcoming it psychologically.

There are four types of strange men and women. They are the most successful virtue traders for the enemy.

1. Strange woman by decision: They are conscious of what they are doing. They know exactly what they are doing. It is the man or woman who does not know what they are doing. Their aim is to entice men and lead them into sexual affairs. There are also men like that who cause others to commit immoral sins. Most times, they are agents of Satan to cage people.

In 1995, I was an external examiner to the University of Benin to examine students who did Masters in Microbiology. When I got to the university, the professor welcomed me very well, introduced me to people, and then took me to a large building, which was the guest house. He said, “This is where you are going to stay. There is a kitchen, a cook, everything; just tell the cook what you want to eat.” Then he said, “Thank you so much; we will see you in the morning. Goodnight.” So I said, “Goodnight, sir.”

Then he turned back and said, “Dr. Olukoya, do you want bushmeat?” I looked very confused. He said, “You do not understand. Do you want bush meat tonight?” I still did not understand. He then said, “Do you want me to fetch you a woman to sleep with tonight?” I said, “Professor, are those the people you are calling bush meat? They are not the bush meat; you are the bush meat. They know what they are doing; you are the one who does not know what you are doing.”

Therefore, there are a lot of poor men around who have allowed strangeness to transfer their virtues. This is a very serious matter. And I want you to understand this very well. They are conscious of what they are doing—strange men and women.

I was at the University of Ibadan for a crusade, and when it was about to end, there was a word of knowledge that said, “There are three ladies here. You are a student here, but you did not come here to read. You came here to hijack people’s destinies and pollute men through sex. I want to pray for you, so come out now.”

Nobody came out. No problem. I continued with the crusade. It was a Saturday night. By Monday morning, I was at the headquarters here, and they said three ladies from the university were looking for me. So I saw them, and they said to me, “On Saturday, when you came to the campus, you gave a word of knowledge that there are ladies who capture people through sex and they should come out. We were too ashamed and shy to come out. We thought that when we come out, people will stone us, so we are the ones.”

I said, “You should have come out because the anointing at that crusade ground is different from the one here now.” They had a bag, and they brought out three pots from it. How beautiful ladies like them could have those kinds of black pots, I did not understand. They said, “It is in this pot that we deposit the semen of the men we sleep with on campus. Any man we have slept with is finished; he cannot prosper.

Virtue is taken out. “So your parents sent you to the campus to go and read, but you are going around sleeping with all kinds of people, and so before you even got the degree, you had lost your virtue.

As a woman too, you do not know that the man you are going about with that his manhood is a serpent pushing poison into your womb.

2. Unconscious strange women: They are not aware that they are strange. The way they behave is strange, and the way they walk is strange.
3. Professional strange people: All over the world, they are known as prostitutes. It is one of the oldest professions in the world. They stay in dark corners.
4. The Holy Ones: They claim to be born again; they are Christians; they are in church; but they are strange in their behaviour. When a woman is attending a church and in that church you are sleeping with a man you are not married to, you are a strange woman.

Proverbs 7:7–10 (KJV) says: “And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,”

Your head is not correct at all. Your manhood may be correct, but your head is not correct.

Proverbs 7:8 (KJV): “Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,”

Which house?
Proverbs 7:5–6 (KJV): “That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words. For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,”

Strange people. They have their own special corners and special friends; you won’t see them moving with those who believe in holiness within and without. All their friends are those who dress differently in and out of church. When they are coming to churxh, they remove all the Jezebelian attachments, and when they are out, they wear them again. The Bible calls you a strange woman.

Proverbs 7:9 (KJV): “In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night:”

You see those strange women lurking about in strange places. If you’re in a relationship, there are certain times you should not be with your fiancee. But there are strange people who have their own corners. If you say we are going for three days of prayer and fasting, they will not attend that meeting. They will, however, be the first to dress up and get there, if you say that next Sunday everybody in church is going to a picnic at the bar beach. Listen, you’re a strange woman.

Proverbs 7:10 (KJV): “And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.”

So there are harlot attires. As a Christian, there are certain dresses you cannot wear. A believer ought to dress decently. Your breast is not for outside display, so which type of dress is this that is leaving your breast outside? Which type of dress is this that, if they say “shout hallelujah,” your breasts will jump out? Then, to make it worse, some believers wear their wedding gowns like that, and the poor pastor who is conducting the wedding will be busy staring at that breast.

If you say you are not a prostitute but you are dressing like one, you have one of the characteristics of a strange woman, which is special seductive dresses. It is not only the dress that speaks volume; it is also your posture and the way you walk. There is a strange cat walking, which is seductive.

Proverbs 7:11 (KJV): “(She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:”

You see a 17 or 18 or 19 or 20-year-old girl roaming about in the night, not under her parents roof? Strange woman.

Proverbs 7:12–14 (KJV): “Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.) So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him, I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows.”

She was saying, “I am a believer; I can speak in tongues, so do not think I am bad.” This is a very serious matter.

Proverbs 7:15 (KJV): “Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.”

Here she meant, “I have seen that you are a very handsome man; that is why I found you.” The man is staring at you and calling you an angel. You know you are not an angel, but you are smiling. You are an angel of seduction.

Proverbs 7:16–18 (KJV): “I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works, with fine linen of Egypt. I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning; let us solace ourselves with loves.”

So you are caged there throughout the night, and you claim you are having fun. No, they just put a hose into your body, and they press a button in the demonic world and say, “Please run this man through an x-ray.” And say, “Wow, this man is loaded. Rich, wealthy, and influential, he is in our trap.” Then they press the hose into his body, and that all night you are spending there, they are just draining your virtues. By the time you realise you have been drained, you might be 40 or 45, and then you open your foolish mouth and say, “Since I got married, things have stopped working.” No, they have stopped working since that day; they have taken it from the strange woman.

Look at what happens at the house of a strange woman in verse 23.

Proverbs 7:23 (KJV): “Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.

That is, they put the trap down. It is only after they have set the trap that the bird starts running there. That is why the Bible says that the head of the person is not correct.

Many people are in trouble now because of the careless sex they had as youngsters. Many men are not able to make it because they themselves were just throwing the virtues away.

When virtues are lost, there will be:

• Failure at the edge of breakthrough.
• Unemployment.
• Hopeless situations will abound.
• Constant loss of confidence.
• Constant setback.

When the enemy wants to take a virtue from somebody and transfer it, the most potent method is sex outside marriage, because to enjoy sex outside marriage, you have broken into the spiritual realm like an armed robber. So the hedge is opened, and the enemy has the right to harm you.

When there is virtues transfer,

• The person becomes empty spiritually.
• there will be constant setback.
• there will be dryness.
• there will be frustration and confusion.
• there will be prolonged stagnation.
• there will be constant failure at the edge of a breakthrough.
• there will be difficulty in growing.
• Inability to get married.
• Promise and fail syndrome.
• Rising and falling.
• Breakthrough is hindered.
• there will be plenty of delays.

Look at these boys that those girls have taken away their virtues. They will be struggling but never know why. God picked up a man and said, “I put you in this company, ministry, or place of work so you can be a shining light, and very soon I am going to hand over the key of this place to you.” That is why God took him there. But now the enemy is saying, How are we going to get this key from this man? Then they employ a strange woman as his secretary. Immediately, he begins to sleep with that strange woman; what they want is that key. They now take the key away.

Tonight, you and I have work to do. The keys are:

1. Repentance.
2. Repentance.
3. Repentance.
4. To dress up in your military wear. Ask the Lord to transfer you to where those virtues are hidden. Then go there and recover it.

PRAYER POINTS.

1. Virtue robbers assigned against me, hear the word of the Lord, appear in the name of Jesus.
2. Virtue robbers assigned against me, Virtue robbers assigned against me, hand over my virtues in the name of Jesus.
3. Strongman, that has stolen my virtues, return them now by fire in the name of Jesus.
4. My virtue in any coven, hear the word of the Lord, jump out now in the name of Jesus.
5. Density vultures vomit my virtues in the name of Jesus.
6. God of solution, my life is available; appear in the name of Jesus.
7. Blood of Jesus, give me testimonies in the name of Jesus.
