Marital Settlement || Apostle Mtho

About this episode

In this direct, foundational sermon, Apostle Mtho teaches on the transformative power of spiritual submission. Grounded in Ephesians 5:24, James 4:7, Luke 10:17, and Leviticus 27:30, the message establishes that true freedom, authority and promotion in the Kingdom of God flow directly from willingly placing oneself under God’s Word, control, and governance.

Welcome to the Raining in Life podcast with a pastong talk, where we share transformative teachings to help you walk in God's purpose and live a victorious life. Each episode is designed to inspire, equip and empower you to reign in life through the word of God. Get ready to be encouraged and challenged as we dive into today's message. Submitted people are powerful people. And so today, I want to explore submission to God. Hallelujah. Ephesians chapter 524 in the end of the world. Why would a man go missing? You know, I was looking at this topic as the Holy Spirit spoke to me. And I noticed other people call it surrender. The purpose surrender that life, no submission. Because some can surrender involuntarily.

What's our submission? And what's special on the wedding day? All the ladies are not smiling at me because they're like, I need to take a picture of the people who are not smiling at this message. Hallelujah. Telling them, was it neighbor? We need to be submitted to God. Amen. Ephesians chapter 5 verses 24. Hallelujah. The Bible says, as the church submits to Christ, so you wife should submit to your husbands in everything. Hallelujah. You wife should submit to Christ in. So today we're focusing on as the church submits to Christ. The church doesn't submit to government. The church submits to Christ. Hallelujah.

The church is a submitted organization. It's submitted to Christ. That's why they normally call it Christians Christ-like. Right? And it's amazing that Christ Jesus has a bride, but we never had that Satan as a bride. Because it's only the submited who can bring others into submission. If you are not submitted to anything, no one should be submitted to you. As the church is submitted to Christ, what is the church submited to? The church is submitted to Christ. Hallelujah. That means everybody here must be submitted to Christ. Every man here, every woman here, and until you submit to Christ, every other submission to human institutions will be bondage and abuse.

Hallelujah. Amen. We don't want to be a church that's not submitted to Christ. Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. James chapter 4 verses 7 in the Amplified. It's said, so submit to the authority of God. Resist the devil, stand firm against him, and he will flee from you. So we see the order. Submission brings freedom. Because you are only able to deal with Satan after you have submitted to God. Many people are wondering why is my life chaotic? My question to you is, are you submitted to God? Not surrender, because it is, I surrender. No, are you submitted? What is to submit? It is to willingly bring yourself under. The power, the control, the influence,

the power of another's will. It is to willingly, willingly, willingly. What troubles submission, not kidnapping? When your kid nevd you are forced. You see, what troubles submission, not cooperation? Where you willingly bring yourself under, not above, under. The power, the will, the desires, the influence, the control of another. Hallelujah. So today we are saying that every child of God must first of all bring themselves under the power of God. Bring yourself under the word of God. You are not a Christian if you are not submitted to the word of God. Hallelujah. Ask your neighbor, what is the final authority in your life? Amen. For some of us is our feelings.

For some of us is our friends. For some of us is what's trendy on social media. But the child of God cannot live like that. If you are going to truly be free, then you have to willingly submit yourself under the mighty hand of God. It's a mighty hand and you must submit yourself under that mighty hand. Hallelujah. If I said the smithath of the miscarender, Lord I surrender, it is easy to surrender when you are dealing with the superpower. But for God to come and say submit yourself. Yannisan, it means number one, you are also powerful to choose not to submit. You number two, it also means submission is a choice. You can choose to submit or not. Number three, it tells me that when you are submitted, you know. When you are not submitted, you also know. So there is no one who says that I didn't know I was not submitted. In Luke chapter 10, verses 17, we find the disciples of Jesus coming back.

Right? Remember they submitted themselves to the instructions of Jesus. When they come back in Luke chapter 10, verses 17, they come back and they say even the demons. Right? Even the demons are subject to us. Why? Because they were subject to him. There is a divine order in God. Anytime you break that order, expect to be broken. You know, if you are not submitted to God, then what should submit to you will not submit to you. And the most of us are spending our time, our energy, our life, fighting for things to submit to us. When we are not submitted ourselves, when we have not brought ourselves under the power, the control, the influence, the will of God. When God made Adam and Eve, when they were still submitted to God, do you remember what happened? The animals were in submission to them.

God would bring the lions and the giraffes and everything and they were submitted to them. But when God, when Adam and Eve ate the fruit, when they stepped out of the submission of God, then creation also stepped out of submitting to men. When you stepped out of submitting to God, even your body cells stepped out of submission to you. Cancer then comes in because you are not a man who submitted. So why should you submit to you? Sugar dipethes then comes and says that you are not submitted. So why should we submit to you? Are you here? Your finances also say we will not submit to you because it is a kingdom of one submission after another submission. Pastor, I don't know why my life is. The one who gave you life, I was submitted to him. Because this thing works when you are submitted to the one who gave you life.

When you submit yourself to God, then life submits itself to you. But because you started at UCT, you are like no, there is a static tan in Hong Kong that says I'm a Hong Kong, I'm the real king Kong. And because of that, I will leave my life the way I want, Hilary in the meantime. And I'm gonna do what I want. It's my life, I can leave it anyhow. And then life shows you that you just arrived 30 years ago. Life then shows you that you are new in this thing. Life shows you that no, if you are not submitted to God, then life says we also don't want to submit to you. Is somebody with me today? Yes please. This is a venture return with great joy. I see you returning this month of September with great joy. Because what was not subject to you is now gonna be subject to you because you are now subject to the creator.

Which is our Heavenly Father. Hallelujah. I said, Hallelujah. Submission to God is the source of truth freedom. You want to be free? Be submitted. Hallelujah. He prescribed 12 verses 9 as I close. In the NLT. That's our wedding. It's one shot. We want to eat cakes and it's preani and everything nice today. He prescribed 12 verses 9 in the NLT. It says since we respected our Heavenly Father who disciplined us, we should it will submit even more to the discipline of the Father of our spirits and live forever. So that means that in submitting to God is life. It is in submitting to God that there is life. Doesn't make sense? It is not in looking for life that there is life. It is coming under God.

God lead me. God guide me. God correct me. Your will and not my will. Your kingdom come not my kingdom come. Your desire for my life not my own desire for my life. That is the key to living forevermore. Hallelujah. So the glaze say to the porter, why are you making me like this? Many of us are telling God how to handle us. We are coming under said that in the name of feminism, a man's a woman's a it is my right and God says that's not the way. Say ten always advocates for rights that will frustrate what God has given you. Hallelujah. I said, Hallelujah. You want to freedom in Christ? Then submit yourself to God. The reason why you can't even submit yourself to your men is you are not submitted to God.

We in the moon to use that man. What is a man? What is a man? Pastor, no, this woman doesn't submit to me. I use yourself submitted to Christ. Yourself, are you submitted to Christ? Are you submitted to Christ? Hallelujah. Number one, submit to the will of God for your life. We see this in Jesus. The Lord, our example, not my will but your will be done. Not my will but your will be done. When it came to everything, I didn't come to to my own will, but I came to to the will of my father. Not my will but your will be. That was Jesus. Look at the freedom he had. The freedom to multiply bread. The freedom to do all kinds of miracles. And the Bible says in Philippians chapter 2, because he submitted himself to God. God has exalted him.

You can only be promoted by the system you are under. Come on, sir. You can only be what? By the... That is why God can't promote you. You are not under His governance. And sit and don't promote anyone. Are you hearing me? For example, if you are working in the army, can the medical field promote you? Okay, now, if you are working in the hospitality industry, can the academia promote you? So why do you want God to promote you when you are not under His system? Just hump yourself under the mighty hand of God. And he shall lift you up. The hand that can lift you is the hand you are under. Don't expect the lifting of God if you are not under His mighty hand.

Don't expect the lifting of God if you didn't bring yourself and submit it. Don't expect it. Why do you expect the person that you are not under His system to lift you up? You can come every God, change my family and causes my children not submitted to my ways. I can't lift you up. Pastor, the devil's chasing midnight, he better chase you. He better chase you. You're not submitted. Pastor, please pray. You know I can resist him for you on your behalf for once or twice. But do you want permanent victory? Be submitted to God. Yes. Pastor, I had a dream. Another dream. This snake was chasing me to the legs and it was running very fast. Do you know why I can't even dream? I can't even dream those dreams. Because I'm submitted to God. I can watch a horror movie. I can't even have a nightmare. Because I'm submitted to God.

You see when God says forgive, I say Lord, it is done. But you God must debate with you. Have a parliamentary proceeding. Have a Magyarga commission. Comrade, you must forgive. Because that's what you do. You are not submitted. Now let me tell you, the opposite of submission is what? It's rebellion. It's rebellion. That's why when Satan stops submitting to God, you are the rebels. When Adam and Eve ate the fruit, they were rebels. So when you are not submitting under God, you are considered a terrorist. You are a rebel. How can God then bless a rebel? How can God then prosper a rebel? Tell you never said your rebellion stops today. Hallelujah. It's a month of submission. I must voluntarily bring myself under the dream of God, the desire of God, the will of God, the influence of God, the power of God for my life.

I'm just knowing this thing. What do I know? Let me submit myself to the father of our spirits. I'm submitting myself to God. You know, some of you like to submit yourself to men, to systems. Hallelujah. I said, Hallelujah. But until you submit yourself to listen to me, do you know why there is, why some of you can't stay long in relationships, can't stay? Because you are not submitted to God. Your boss is not the problem. You are at his order before God is the problem. There is no difficult boss anyway. There is just an unsubmitted employee. There is no difficult spiritual father anyway. There is just an unsubmitted son. Not to the father, but to God. To God. To God. You noticed Jesus never complained about Herod. He never complained about pilot.

He never complained about why you are submitted to God. He knew that whatever God is ordained, it is for my good. Because he had read, I know the plans I have for you. What is it? If you are not submitted to me and I come, I've got a good plan for you. You will be questioning me at every interval. Because you are not submitted. But if you are submitted, I say, let's go. We just go. Some of your questions are because your heart is not settled in Christ. Yes sir. Yes sir. One guy just breaks your heart. Now you're like, where was God? He is always way he is. Ah, well then. Let's close it on 2nd Corinthians chapter 8 verses 5. Many of us are very proud.

We are self-centered. We place ourselves above the word of God. We feel special. It can happen but not to me. Like if you ask any guy next to you, if I throw a grenade there, what would you do? They'll pick it up and throw it. And they'll, ah-ha. You have a Hollywood in your mind. Yeah. You're playing a movie in your mind. No, pasta, I will push everybody. And it's a film. Right? We place ourselves above the word. And many of us place ourselves under the word. You understand? I am nothing. I can do nothing. I have nothing. I am nothing. I can do nothing. I have nothing. That is also pride. Does it make sense? A humble person is one who says, I am what God says, I am. I can do what God says. If you are truly humble and God says you are blessed, guess what?

But for you to know so that I what do I have to show that I'm blessed, it means you're proud. Because now you're making God a liar. Are we there? Is my scripture there? Yeah. Paul was talking about the generosity of the Macedonian church. Right? This was the city church and they were very generous. And Paul says they even did more than we had hoped. For their first action was to give themselves to the Lord. That's the first action. And to us, justice God, what before you give yourself to any man, give yourself to God. Many of you want to marry because of sex, not because you have given yourself to God. That is why when God says, don't deny your husband sex, you are arguing. Yes, that's why when the word of God is preached, you are rather arguing. Do you know why you're arguing? Is it getting hot or are I'm saying? Yeah. You're arguing.

You're arguing. Why are you arguing? Because you're not submitted yourself to God. My question to you, who created marriage? So who should give us the rules for marriage? So what's your problem when God is speaking? When God says, husband, love your wife as Christ, what's your problem in the matter? When God says, wife, submit to your own husband in everything, what's your problem in the matter? It's tearing, say submit to the husband, who gives you money? It's said once you say, I do and is your husband. The only response we require is... No, pastor, because my husband is treating me like his child Sabah. Meet. You know Sabah Rin? You know the quality of Sabah Rin? Because it is anta, anta, anta, anta. If Sabah Rin cannot function properly above the waters, it's not built for that.

It functions properly and the deep earth, the water, the more powerful its capabilities. I am here to say to the church that you are more powerful when you are under the mighty hand of God, but the devil can do you know him. It is when you are under the word of God and the spirit of God. That is how the devil will not touch you. Now some of you have the title Sabah Rin, but you are flying like a plane. Sabah Confusion. They gave themselves to the Lord first. That's why you ask you. Pastor, it's time the New Testament will alter. You see a man who is under God first, those questions don't even enter your mind. Because you have come to the point of saying everything I have is his.

Amazing that you don't want to be under God, but you want everyone to be under you. You don't want to be under the word of God, the will of God, the principles of God. For example, some of you are poverty, some of the God's people, not you guys. Some of the people, the poverty that's chasing you is because you are not under the ways of God. What are the ways of God, the principles of God? For example, God has said to you, CNN was diligent in his work. What is diligent in his work? So God says, if you don't work hard, you are on prosper. My question to you, you are resting six days and only trying to hustle on one day. Are you now seeing why there is no prosperity? You are not under the principles of God. For example, the Bible says, a little sleep and a little, and a little folding of the hands, what will happen? Poverty shall. So these things that you are doing, the slumber party and you wake up and you throw power and you can't see that you are not in submission to the ways of God.

Join us, I am saying to you. For example, if we want to fly a plane, it's not a miracle. There are laws we must submit ourselves under. Right? There are laws. When the pilots are flying, they are not guessing. There are specific laws that they must submit themselves to. I am saying to you, prosperity is not a miracle for a child of God. There are laws, keys, principles, you must bring yourself under. I will together. So number one, submit yourself to the Word of God. The written Word of God. Is there someone with a physical cup of the Bible? Yeah. Submit yourself to Isipalo, isn't it? Submit yourself. What I am with the Word of God says I am.

I can do what the Word of God says I can. Yes. Many Christians who don't want to submit themselves to, if it is written, it is written. Did God write about forgiveness? Is done. For you to pray about what is written is to waste your time. Did God write about marriage? Yes. Did God write about success? Yes. Did God write about what it takes to God to heaven? Yes. What it takes to God to hell? Yes. You wrote about it? Yes. So you submit yourself to the Word of God. Yes. You submit yourself to this book. There used to be a song which is to say, And no more singing. It's simply what does a Christian live by? And the responses by the Word? Are you living by the Word or by your feelings?

Do you live by the Word or by your wishes? Ask your name or close to me. Are you submitted to the Commission? Are you submitted to the... For example, young people, did the Bible say, say flee youthful lust or explain youthful lust. You said what? Did you say condom mice or flee? So what are you doing with condoms? Did you say, did you say put a what's this a family planning thing? A contraceptive thing in injection or it's a flee. So what are you doing? What are you doing? A pasta. No pasta doesn't understand. I don't have to understand. God just told us what to do. What to do? Yes. The public tells us about a man called Joseph.

Who submitted his sexuality to God? Many of us are sexually. It is not under control. Yeah, you are in charge of your sexuality. Yet the one who gave you that sexual organ knows the best suited environment for it. Which is marriage. Joseph comes a beautiful hot woman is saying, I've booked a cell room. Please come. I desire you. I sabar well you and Joseph and Joseph at that moment. She didn't say wow. What an opportunity. What a chance. Hey, what's it like you man? What do the men say? He said, why should I do this before God? My brothers, my sisters, is your private part is your private part and a submission? The bus again local mask is your private parts and submission to the world of God.

I asked Washington, you don't have you. Acting like I'm speaking Chinese here is your private part and a submission to the world. Is it under? All the under pornography. All the under masturbation. All the under for. It's a come, come record it properly. Is your private part and a submission to the world of God or your freelancing? That's the part put it on TikTok put it everywhere. Is the question for the week is it under? You can't be a child of God and your private part is not under the word of God.

Someone is like, why what kind of church is this? Is that church that's teaching some mission? Because you are saying, Lord, I give you my heart and God is saying the private part as well, please. I give you my soul, the private part as well. Let our young people. Only the heart, no. That thing, that thing, I want to rule it as well. Wives, if God rules that thing, you can't say no to your husband. Husbands, if God rules that thing, you can't say no to your wife. Some of these issues in your marriages is because there is no Lordship of Christ in that area.

There's no, it's feelings, it's tiredness. You don't like this message. I'm sorry, next you can't preach a safe message, I'll let you out. Number two, so number one, God is submit your private part. Teenagers, are you hearing me? Where are the teenagers? Are you hearing me? Submit. Sir, what did I say? The... You think God is it, guys? Okay. Number two, as I close my time is gone. We have a wedding. The second thing you must submit is your purse, your money, your resources. Many of you will do anything for God until he patches your pocket.

Because the love of money is occupied your heart. And the love of money is sent in two ways. One, it's sent in excessive spending. Number two is also sent in stringentness, extreme stringentness. Yes, yes. There's people who are can't ask with money. They are wasteers. That's the love of money. There's those who are stingy with money. Rocky brothers and Rocky sisters. You have a better chance for water to come out of a rock than for one brand to come out of that brother that sister. Are you hearing me? Yes. So we find a man called Abraham. That God could come to him and say, give me the son you like. God is God able to have a conversation on finance with you. One of the reasons we pay tight, we are saying, God, our resources are under you. And I prove it by my 10%.

I prove it by honoring you with my substance. Because who's changing the aircon like, I think it's hot now. It's fine. All this is a, I'm on fire. I'm on fire. I'm on fire. I'm submitted under. He's not submitted. Let the man of God be happy. Sorry, buddy. Tell him that we're saying submit your finances. Submit your finances. Submit your finances. Submit your finances. Submit your finances. Yes. Right now if we take your bank statement, we see your financial priorities. We see your financial submissions. We know we see rent paid cross-sari made. But what about God?

So many Christians have adopted the worldly thinking when it comes to finances. God wants you to be submitted financially. He's God able to come and say that, that's your car. I want it. Is he able to do that? Or no, I find the devil. No sir. There's no devil to find. How come you don't find the devil, you only find it when it's time to give. And we, me knowing Satan. Satan will never ask you to give. He will never ask you to give. Never pity a giver. Hello. Because you feel like no. But why should I work out and bring my money to church? I'm submitting it to God. Listen, you're tired. You don't take it to SPCA. You're tired. You don't take it to a gift of the givers. You're 10% you don't take it to a rent cross. No, that one is you come and say, I am submitted financially.

This strength, my sweat, I'm submitted it under God. Do you know one of the reasons we fast? I'll show you in someone this morning. One of the reasons we fast, is because God said all the fat offering is mine. Leviticus chapter 3. So when you are fasting, what is your body bending? That is an offering to God. So those who don't fast, you have never given God a fat offering. You have never given God a fat offering. Put my scripture this. Leviticus 3. Yes. Every time I met a giver, I'm giving a fat offering to God. Sacadavra Taha'i. Look at you never say a fat offering is true. If you think you're sitting next to your suspect, say a very big fat offering. And some of us have to give bigger offerings than others.

Verse 16, please. So we fast. One of the reasons we fast is not pasta, I'm fasting. That's why when you listen to me guys, if you are eating you're not fasting. Fasting is denying yourself food. My time is up. I'm done. I will see you next week. Hallelujah. The priest will bend them on the altar. It is a special gift of food. A blessing aroma to the Lord. All the fat belongs to the Lord. Yes, you have been keeping the fat. Doctor Sabani, God says you're fat. Who does it belong to? To God.

You see, nah, I love the Bible. Yes. So when it says offer yourself as a living sacrifice, God is also targeting your body weight, your fat. No, is it in your Bible? Offer your body. Is it? Why your body? Because there is fat there. So when you are fasting, you are offering to God. Fat. So some of you must give your first fruit tomorrow. You are doing your first fasting tomorrow. Jesus, I feel my fat's Lord. Take this color is my king. Color repellent. Come to what you can do. I am a sweet man in sacrifice. First it was fragrance. Then it turns to fire.

You're not fasting. You are wrapping God of sweet smelling offerings. That's why we fast. Yes, fasting is the most spiritual than you think. It's not just abstaining for food until 6 pm. During that process your body is also offering to God. Science can come and call it lethag. You call it fat. Is my king. I see this church becoming a fasting mission. Because I am doing my contribution of fat today. Hallelujah. There is no useless race in the Bible. Yes, so say, oh, and the fat offerings you pass that one. No. No. The fat. Now, find for me the ascetic and all the types of the land is the Lord.

Right? What is the types? What is the Lord? What is the type? It's 10%. It belongs to the Lord. Not even the church, the Lord. How does God receive you? Bring it to his house. There are people appointed to administer it. But what if they study that? Then none of your business. Because they will account for every rent. Does it make sense? The verticals 27 versus 30. One tenth of the of the produce of the land. Whether grain from the field of fruit from the trees. Belong. It belongs. It is possession. That's why you could come and say you are robbing me. You can't rob a man of what doesn't belong to him. This scripture shows us that God says this thing belongs to me. If you are in submission to God in your finances, you won't struggle tiring. You know, tiring is the entry point of giving.

It's not the ceiling. If you are struggling with tiredness, how? What about offerings? What about helping the poor? Are you even taking care of your family? What about your men of God? Are you even showing sins? Collision 66? Are you hearing me? So if you are failing in the list, in the list. What shall we say of you? Look at you never say what shall we say of you? Hallelujah. Please put it maybe when you came to this. That says the tithe of the land is the Lord's. Who tuned us the tithe belongs to? Tell me never say it belongs to the Lord. It doesn't belong to your hair style list. It doesn't belong to your mechanic. It doesn't belong to Netflix subscription. It doesn't belong to your opera to come to judge. You must bring that to save my father, my maker. This one belongs to you. You are not doing past 12 favors, sir.

Because some of you feel like God has blessed me. Now I need to just, you know, manage it, say be serious with your life. Be serious with your submission. They are not devaraged in the New Testament. How do you read your Bible? How do you read your Bible? I can't start it. Did it all really? Why are you going to work then? If it did it all, why are you going to work? Why are you still working? Jesus did it all for your forgiveness and restoration. He didn't do it all for other aspects of the kingdom. If a man will not work, he should not eat. Lord Jesus did it all. Oh, Lord Jesus did it all for me. Do you understand what I'm saying? Yes. So you find that there's a demon that comes on people that say that no. You say, all testament when you want. If you don't read the, don't know the Bible, come and teach you. Like I just showed you that that faith is for, we give it via fasting. Yes, we give the faith via fasting. Yes. Yes.

I hope somebody is hearing me. So guys, listen to me. Facebook is not where the church is built. You attend your local church. That is why you're built. Because people on Facebook come and say, No, I don't believe in giving, I give my 10% to the poor. That's why you might join them very soon. You don't take what is holy and you give it to the dogs. You don't do that. And you guys need to learn what is holy. There's things that are holy. They are set apart for God. Holy means set apart. Set apart. You see, if I said this is my drinking flask, it has my name on it, right? It has my bread on it. So it is set apart. If I get you drinking from it, you must explain. Not because I don't love you, but it's set apart. There must be things that are set apart. You can't treat everything the same. You can't. Some of you guys will, before you get married,

everything is just, you just wait anyhow. Then you find that, no, no, no, that suit is only for special occasions. They are not teaching that there are some things that are set apart. They are set apart. Because you sleep with them, with the thing you wake up with it, you don't care. But then someone comes and says, No, this must be set apart. So your 10% in your finances, Pandegga, is what? It's for court. This should not confuse you. Even if you're a teenager, your father gives you pocket money, hand a drink, how much belongs to court? That's it. Your husband gives you an allowance. How much belongs to court? 10%. That's it. It's not confusing. Your salary comes in. What is cost-pushing? 10% of what? Of course. Because, sir, takes from cross. Everybody takes from cross. Then you come to court and then you say,

You have seen what they've done, eh? Lord, you see, see what they've done, Jesus. Join us, I'm saying to you. Ah, no, I'm foolish. Are you telling people to keep from cross? Yes, I am. Yes, I am. In our church, we keep from cross. Now, we don't give from net up to heaven, it's taken. And then we now scramble some portion. Can you say why some of us are hardly really stepping into the blessing? Because you're not even giving 10% anymore. You think court can't do math. You think all of a sudden, when your salary comes in, court can't do math. All of a sudden, no. Listen to me. There's a blessing that comes when you submit yourself to court. When you choose to honor court, when you choose to court first, court above all, I know you love your wife, but love your court more than your wife. It is God who gave you that woman.

Some of you have been labored in too much of work, trying to promote yourself. The blessing of the Lord makes you reach it. It adds no sorrow. Effortless increase. Effortless increase. Stop striving for what you should be dominating. Bring yourself under God's financial rules. Tithing is one of them. Secreficial giving is another one. Partnership is another one. So you don't just have to go to a judge, there's art is a combination key. Hard work is an... So if you give tith, but you don't work hard, you will be a blessed poor person. Because tithing secures the blessing, your work ethic creates avenues for it to come back to you. Therefore if a man will not work, he should not eat. When you tie the windows of heaven are open. What do the windows of heaven rain? They don't rain physical rain. They rain down ideas.

They rain down creative solutions. For you to see this way can see a better way to do it, a faster way to do it. You know, all of a sudden what just to take you two weeks, now you can treat in one hour and you can move to other protest. But many of cause children don't realize that ideas are more powerful than currency. We live in an ideas world. Elon Musk is the biggest, is the richest man in the world right now because of ideas. Because of what? Let's just not know, past the Elon Musk is not a believer, it's you who thinks that. Yes, if I tell you brother, Elon Musk feels in tongues, you won't believe it. Because until he does it on public, you won't believe. Because you find percent, when Elon Musk is not in prayer meeting, he is not in your prayer meeting. He is not in the 5 a.m. one. Oh, you done? Oh, you done? Huh? If right now the male kept on calls me and says, I need to hold your communion.

Do you think I'll say come for the service? I will take the communion to his house. There is, sir, there is VIP in this Christian thing. I'm funny saying, was it not Jesus? Well, there's a centurion in 7 is dead and Jesus was like, I'm going to meet him to his house. But the woman with the issue you met him then. You are not ready for it in the Bible. Along the way, you are, you think the Bible is a charity book? It's not! So now, do you know what's happening there? Do you know what's happening now? Your moral complex is now descending the 7. If you see yourself as the woman with issue, then you feel like, so what will happen to us? But instead of seeing yourself that the centurion was also a man. But he was a man who built something for God. That is what God is attracted to those who are attracted to him. Why don't you say I want to be the centurion that Jesus comes to me?

Why don't you see that? Why don't you see yourself only as the woman with issue, the man with issues? Because of my background and my upbringing, all of us have a background, all of us have an upbringing. That's why I submitted to God so that God can show us the way out. Is somebody here with me? I will do it together. I am. But first I say, when you are young and this thing, you know, every party must come to chat with him. No, when you start reading the Bible properly, no, that's not. As these people, I must go to give them communion in their office. Yes, everyone. Yes. They want to pray with brother Ilion. Brother Ilion must be singing. Wow, Babis! That's the only way you will believe that, brother Ilion. You want to eat, eat, eat, eat, eat. That's the only way you will believe. First up below.

For example, you say how arrogant you can be as well. For example, you are in the city church. You are not coming to the parochetch. But once you had to tell yourself, there is a version of me that can worship God in the whole world. You can tell. Tell yourself, if you think you are better. You don't want me to tell the truth now. Okay, so if you, who has 10 minutes from the church was not coming to church when it was in Baruch. But now you are driving an Uber to come to church in the city church. Why do you think Ilion's mask must come to your city church? Do you think Ilion must come to your church with 5 members? And there is just one pastor who just comes and he just kills 20 minutes of communion and just shares the devotion and that's it. And that's it.

Look at you never say a story is changing. Anyway, so submit yourself to what are the two kids that are giving two important areas. Submit your private parts and submit your purse, your finances, your giving. Yes, you know you find sometimes that God can come to you and he says that last 50 rent, bless that brother. And you say, but God is my last, you say in your eyes is the last but the man who submitted it's not your last. Yes, yes. Some of us have known, we are no longer generous. We don't know what it means to be generous. We no longer know what it is to give sacrificially to other people. And most of us we only give to those we are expecting to receive something from. If I don't see, if I'm talking to this brother and I'm looking at him and he's not smiling maybe because he's still saying I don't know and he's not smiling and this brother and I said,

And it's like there's nothing good. This brother can give me. I don't give him attention. But what if this brother, you say don't despise. Don't despise. Never mind the nation, he's a clear right? So let if you submit yourself to God, the purpose of the Holy Spirit he shall teach you and he shall guide you. The Holy Spirit can teach you how to work with that boss of yours. And think we become his favorite. Basta is the most important, when once is the problem. The Holy Spirit can teach you how to make him, you become his best person. The Holy Spirit can teach you how to take over. The Holy Spirit can teach you how to package yourself. Basta, my marriage is trying up. It's time there's no more romance. The Holy Spirit can teach you. He can teach you. But most of us are not in class. We are not in submitted in submission. We would rather be on YouTube and and it was cooking this cooking that but the Holy Spirit knows what will help you. Yeah, you know, I'll start with my gym journey at a point. And I said, then the Lord showed me that script and that the fact when I was giving me my fact.

I'm like Lord what do you mean? I'm like when you are sweating, I am glorified. I was like from today. I will sweat. If it's sweat you want, I will sweat for Jesus. Genesis, I'm saying to you, yes, it's an offering. We're fasting in this church. It's an offering. Hallelujah. Yes, I will together church. Look at you never say you are blessed. All the types of the land, worth of the seed of the land of the fruit of the is the Lord. It's the Lord's. Yes, pastures still in sit down and write this one. Do you know how I know that? Because if it was made by fellow pastors, we would have said 25% to 30% to even 45%. Thank you for joining us on the Raining in Life podcast with a post on tour.
