The Blueprint for a Blessed Life

0:00Welcome 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 rain in life through the word of God. Get ready to be encouraged and challenged as we dive into today's message. So that he blesses man. Genesis chapter 1 verses 27. Why did God create man? So that he blesses man. God has only blessings on his mind when it comes to you. So if you're writing notes, you're writing down, God created me so that he blesses me. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him, male and female he created them.

1:06Next verse. Then God blessed them. The first thing that God did was create them and then right after creating them, the first thing he did was not give them work, bless them. So you are created to be blessed. That is why everything that is contrary to a blessing is something that we fight. Even, even, even government people don't know God. They know sickness is not good. Let's build hospitals. And lack of accommodation is not good. A life without dignity is not good. So even people who don't consciously worship God in the correct understanding, inside of them have an internal wiring. That blessings are good. Hallelujah. So God created you. God designed you intentionally so that he can bless you.

2:06Not that you may be stressed. Not that you may curse you so that he can bless you. Now we know what happened in Genesis chapter 3 when Satan deceived Eve, right? And Satan deceived them so that they can step out of the blessed life into a tough life, into a cursed life, into a burdensome life. You see every time Satan comes with an offer for you, it means where you are you are blessed. Because he comes to steal, to kill and to destroy. I know sometimes it might not feel like you are blessed. But when Satan is coming to tempt you, it means that he wants to move you from the blessed zone into the cursed zone. So Adam and Eve fell into the trap of Satan and for the first time, God and one of the things I truly love is that God did a cursed man.

3:07He cursed the ground for man's sake. Do you know why God could curse man? Because man is in his image. So God cursed man was like God cursing himself. That doesn't make sense. But I know so people have said that, oh God cursed man. And then this other demonic doctrine that came and said, and Africa is especially cursed. I refuse that. With every fiber of my being, I believe that Africans are the most blessed people in the world. I believe that Africans have super intelligence. It's amazing that you can learn a name. So what's your name? It's a simple name. And then you say, what's your name?

4:07And I'm like, yeah, I know you guys are not smart. Africa, we can master anything. Yes, but it's just that we also master how not to take ourselves seriously. Yes, all right. So we thank God for the gospel. Amen. Because it makes us more than just Africans. It makes us supernatural. Hallelujah. So number said, God created me. So that it blesses me. So if it's blessings, it's God. If it's not, it's not. If it's God, it's good. If it's God, it's good. If it's not good, it's not God. How do you know the fingerprint of God, goodness? Yes. Anything that God is involved in, how do you know his fingerprint, goodness? Surely, goodness and message I'll follow after me. Every good and perfect keeper comes from the Father, the Who is in heaven.

5:10And causes to Moses. I'll cause my goodness to pass in front of you. And God made the Father said everything is good. How do you know that God's hand is upon you? Investigate goodness. Goodness is the fingerprint that God was here. When God is involved in your life, he signs it off with goodness. Someone said goodness and mercy. How do you know Satan was here? He signs it with loss. You all of a sudden you begin to lose peace. You become anxious. All of a sudden things that were fun. That's when you know that Satan was here. Hallelujah. Okay. Now you need to settle these things in your heart. If God is involved, it's good. If it's not good, it's not God. Simple. Simple. I thought Pastor God was teaching me a lesson. It can't be God. Because when God teaches you a lesson, when the lesson is done,

6:10goodness follows. Ask David, goodness, mercy follows. Number two. God then saved man so that he blesses men. I tell him if sin so men fell, right? Ephesians chapter 1 verses 3. Then God comes on a salvation project so that he can save men in order to bless men, not to use men. That you might bless men. So this man who begs, lead this man who sinned. God went out. He leaves the 99 to follow the one. Look, think about it. You know that story looks chapter 15. That could shepherd. He came carrying the one. He wasn't even saying, go. Now you say, you made me work. When I go, what did he do? He was even carrying the one. That's God's mind. I mean imagine me as a shepherd you have been missing. You are the one I'm going to bribe. No, no, no, no. You are the you.

7:10I will make an example out of you. That whoever leaves the flock. This is what you're going to get. But God comes and he carries the flock and strongly an example. You see, the story of your life is not the story of you. It's the story of how good God is to you. You spoil the story when you start making it about you. You didn't create yourself. So even on your best day, you don't know what you truly are capable of. It's only God who created you, who knows. Doesn't make sense. So on my best day, I need God. Just as much as on my worst day, I need God. Hallelujah. Many of us, when we have started experiencing some blessings here and there, we feel like I don't need God. I can't figure it out. You don't realize that that's one of the worst things you can ever make. One of the worst decisions you can ever make. So God saved men. Why? Blessed be God.

8:11The Father of Allah, Jesus Christ, who has blessed us. He saved us to bless us. Someone said, God saved me. To bless me. Amen. That is powerful. So you have, you are implicated to be blessed. Number three, God sent Jesus so that He can bless you. Why did Jesus Christ come? To die for the sins of the world. To do all this. He came so that He can bless you. Ex chapter 326. Jesus Christ came so that you can be blessed. So that who can be blessed? So that your family can be blessed. So that South Africa can be blessed. So that the nations of the world can be. Yes. That is what is on God's mind. If you had to do a brain surgery on God, you are just going to find goodness. David says in Psalm 39, Oh God, how great is the sum of your thoughts towards me?

9:12He says that the thoughts you think about me are greater than the sent in the, in the, by the, by the sea show. Think about it. I mean, if you pick up a handful of sent, that's a lot. I mean, that should be millions and millions of sent, right? But David says that God's thoughts for me are much more than all the pictures in the world. They can't quantify that the, the, the thoughts God thinks about you. And their thoughts of good. Now think about the thoughts he has of you. And the thoughts he has of us today. Imagine how big God's brain is. What it is computing. And it's bottomless blessings. It's not like he runs out after he blesses you. It's not like he says that can't pick up the three working days. One of my scriptures which I love is that and Jesus healed them all. You see, if you go to government pharmacists, they'll tell you that we have run out of certain medication. Can't pick next week. But you see God doesn't run out of blessings of healing, of deliverance. Hallelujah.

10:13He doesn't run out. To you first, some say to me first. God haven't raised up his seven Jesus, sent him to bless you. Why was Jesus sent? So if you are preaching at Jesus who's coming to judge people, it is not the Jesus of the Bible. Because the Jesus of the Bible, after he was raised up, he was sent on a blessing mission. I know you have meted Jesus who will kill you. You have meted. But God is saying that he was sent to bless. So before Jesus Christ came. Before when Jesus, before he died, he came to take out the sins of the world. He came to be the lamp of God's land from the foundations of the earth. He came so that the laws can be saved. But after he resurrected, what does it come to do? He has come to bless you.

11:13So Jesus, resurrection agenda, is to bless you, in turning everyone of you from your inequities. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Number four. Now that God has saved you, God has sent Jesus. Number four, God calls men so that He can bless men. God is calling you to Himself so that He can bless you. Hallelujah. So that He can bless you. God is not, we don't come to church as to mark redchester. We come into church's court's invitation because He has blessings on His mind. You don't come to church so that because first it was Sunday, then yesterday it was raining, I thought it was lightning. So I thought let me just come and be right with God. You are missing out on the greater part. God is calling you to come to church every Sunday. As ever, choose to Himself. God is inviting you so that He can bless you.

12:13And the instruction of His Word is how He blesses you. Because God is nothing else apart from the Word of God, with which to bless you, with which to change your life. If God is going to change your life, it is going to be through the agency of the Word of God. So if you are not in a space where you are hearing the Word of God, you are not in a space where blessings are flowing. Come on now. If you are stuck there, I wasn't in a place where with the soul to death, it was taking place. Then it means that I wasn't in the place to see case that she was being eaten. Does it make sense? Yes, I wasn't there to see them being said. I wasn't... Did you tell it on purpose? You know what they are doing. Ah. You know, I think case that she... There's no friends like case that she's in front.

13:18No. No, no, no, no. They must be studied. Anyway, let's come back. So when God is calling you, past the smile, God is saying, I want you to come, be a pastor. It's because you have blessings on his mind. You know sometimes, but when a guy or we listen to the voice of circumstances instead of the voice of God, that I know ministry is tough. Are you serious? Ministry is a blessed space. When God is calling you to be a pastor, He is calling you to bless you. Hallelujah. Ever since God called me, I've never slept hungry. Ever since God called me, I've never been without. I'm actually more blessed. You know that blessing of the Lord, which makes reach and ends no sorrow. I enjoy perpetually a sorrow of free life. You hear the testimony of the later senator, my boss, the way they treated me,

14:18I was so disrespected. No, I don't have a pastor disrespected me. I can't. Not any one day. Every day you wake up and he says, my son, and I'm like, yes, every day he says, I've got good thoughts about you. I didn't call you to shame you. I'm like, thank you, father. You saw when God is calling you. Say, God is calling me today. Not to shame me. Yes. God is calling you not to shame you. So whether God is calling you to be a pastor, God is calling you to be a cell leader. It's not to embarrass you. God is calling you to be a preacher. God is not to embarrass you. He was the one of my daughters. God had been telling her to preach by the taxer rank. So yesterday she went and she texted me. And said, first, I finally went. And I'm like, blessed at thou amongst women. Because it means God is blessed since in his mind. Hallelujah.

15:18When God came to Mary as a young girl and said, Mary, you shall conceive the child. It was blessed. The angel said, Mary, blessed in a highly favored are you. When God is saying, who shall I send? And you say, here I am. You have just signed up. You have just subscribed from the, for the blessed and highly favored package. You want that for 20-26? Then when God is calling you say, here I am Lord. Hallelujah. Many people want the blessed and highly favored but they're not responding to the call of God. They're not responding to the call of God. Look at you never say, you have a calling on your life. Look at you never say, you have a calling on your life. You have a purpose on your life. God didn't create you just to be a consumer. He created you so your calling is your purpose. So when God calls you, it could be a calling to start a business. A calling to start a school.

16:19A calling to be a pastor. To be a Selita. To be a minister. It could be a calling to enter politics. Whatever your calling is, is because God has blessings in his mind for you. Isaiah 51 verses 2. Is the fence making it called? It's called, right? Okay, please. Let me sound. The Pope says, look to Abraham, your father. Right? And two. So who's your father? In case you didn't have a father. No, that's not true. Who's your father? Abraham. Right. Look to Abraham, your father. So I thank God for the Bible because there are fathers I can look up to. In case your biological fathers don't want to look up to.

17:21God has given you another father to look up to. And God is the one who gave you the biological fathers. Now he's giving you a father to look up to. In case you don't have a mother to look up to, God gives you a mother in scripture to look up to. So you can't be say, pastor my mother, pastor my father, God has given you others to look up to. If you continue looking up to those who are disappointing you, it's your choosing. Pastor Ways, God calls into my family. He says, I've given you a father to look up to. Look to Abraham, your father, and to Sarah. Who bore you? I know I can look. See, I'm talking about my biological. God wanted them as a biological lab to give birth to. They've done the biological part. Someone can give birth to your flesh. Doesn't mean they've given birth to your purpose, to your assignment in life. Your natural fathers brought you to this life. Then God gives you destiny, fathers who bring you into destiny.

18:24No matter how much your father loves you. If you're starting to be an engineer and is not a lecturer, you can't. You can't add onto that aspect of your life. So understand that life is in cycles. And forgive. Why not you too? Yes. And you don't give up on your parents. You might not be talking every day about don't give up. I hope I'm helping somebody. Okay. Let your heart always be 10. I wonder you'll be a parent. If you say, I'll never be a parent. That decision I've made is a result of a broken heart. It's not you, it's trauma. So heal. Does that make sense? And then become a better version. So in case you've got no father to look up to today, God is saying, look to Abraham, your father. Pastor, my father, it's very abusive. God says, I hear. Now look to Abraham, your father.

19:27And to Sarah, I'll pour you for I called him alone and blessed him. I called him alone and why did God call Abraham? To bless him. Why is God calling you today? So what's your problem? Pastor, minister, stressful. Are you called to verify if you're called? Verify if you are where you are called to. Because you can be called but in the wrong place. The same way David was called to fight the armies of Israel but you was found on top of the roof with Bethcepa. You was called to fight in the wrong place. Look to Abraham, I called him alone and blessed him and increased him. Hallelujah. Can I tell you something about your parents? The part of your parents you hate is what is multiplied in your life. I promise you you will wake up one day with an attitude exactly like your mother's. Exactly like your father's.

20:28A parent is tricky. That's why the power says honor your father and mother. It didn't say honor your father and mother was present and active. It didn't say honor your father and mother who remember you on your birthday. It didn't say honor your father and mother who texted you every single day. The power says if they are your father, they are your mother, then you deserve you must honor them. Why? So that it can be well with you, not with them. Leave them alone. So that it may be well with you. Do you know what it means that it may be well with you? What it may be well with you means is that you aren't hyper mature. For it to be well with you means when others are struggling to get things done for you, they just happen easily. That it may be well with you means you will never enter an opa with a meta-rande rapist. That is how it is well with the janitor I'm saying to you. Your anger can solve all the things of life. There are things you can't even figure out. If every person that, no, pastor, I live a place life, I drive my own car.

21:29That it might be well with you so that the other guy was drunk. Doesn't come on the same lane that you are in. You understand what I'm saying to you? So God knows that you wanted to be well. That it might be well with you means that you are not having cancer. You are not having teaser because nowadays almost anything can cause cancer. You can just wake up and I'll pass the boom stage five. Doesn't make sense? That it might be well with you means that you can't be depressed and commit suicide. So do you want it to be well with you? Then what does God say? Honor your father. It didn't say honor the father who raised you. Honor the father who attended all of your football matches. It didn't say all of those things. It didn't say honor your mother who didn't shelter you and was always pampering you. Oh! It didn't say love. It said honor. You can honor without loving me.

22:34Anyway. You know some of you, you don't even need to go on fasting. Just go correct this one thing. Yes. Just open your heart and say Lord, I'm not the one to judge my parents. From what I feel they did or didn't do, I am just the one to do your word. I honor them from today. Get your heart just I honor them from today. And you'll say that it shall be well with you. Because when how do you judge people that you were not the one who were proposing each other? How? How do you begin to judge them? Do you know what your father saw in your mother? So what is really your problem? You are a fruit of your father. If your father didn't like your mother, you wouldn't be here. If you became an irresponsible father afterwards. But at least he was responsible enough to deposit you.

23:37What was he? Responsible enough to deposit you into your mother. You know most of these things answer boys. They are masturbating. They are depositing their seats into all kinds of tissue, all kinds. When are your father's like at least less of a child? And that your wicked mother didn't approach you. As we get the seeds, she carried you for nine months. I'm saying that your wicked mother. For nine months she carried you. You changed the body structure she carried you. Her hormones were inflectuating and changing. She carried you. She fed you. She pressed fed you, changed your nappies. I taught you body training. And her only mistake was she didn't come to your rugby game. The only mistake is that she started shouting at you.

24:44The only mistake is that your father has never sent you money. Don't let the devil deceive you. Because when the devil was planting this owner, he doesn't want it to be well with you. He wants you to come out of the blessed life. So you will tell that no value this father's ears. No, it's not your place. It's not my place to judge your father. Hallelujah. I remember personally when my mother passed on. And so my father was a single guy now. So I'm raised by this single guy, right? And I remember when I was asking him, why are you not marrying again? I mean, you're a handsome dude. You're a handsome guy. Why wasn't? And this is to me. I will never have a step. I don't want to ever marry another woman or raise my kids. Because he was raised by a step mother. So whatever you saw was enough to instruct him.

25:46So why would I imagine? Now we grew up without the love of a mother. My friend, focus on your life. My friend, focus on your life. Doesn't make sense? Yes. You know some of you guys, when your parents, you will see that your parents tried. You will see that they tried. Your parents, they tried the best that they could. They went for it. There was no AI in those times. There were no podcasts. At least I don't go online and two podcasts. They tried. They tried. So let's give them all. We will give them hands for your parents right now. Yeah. Yeah. Your mother is trying. Your father is trying. Yeah. With what they know. If they know better, they can do better. But they are trying. They are trying. Hallelujah. All right. All right. So God calls you because He wants to bless you. Number five. God blesses you so that you become a blessing to others.

26:48Can this is chapter 12? Verse three. So the reason you are blessed, there is no blessed. There is no blessed. There is no blessed. It's so that I can be a blessing. So that I can be a blessing. Yes. You are not just blessed just for your own enjoyment. It's so that you can be a blessing. My question to you. Who is thanking God? Who is being blessed because of your life? You are blessed so that number one. You can be a blessing to your family. Right? You are blessed number two. You can be a blessing to your church. Number three to your community. It's kept on becoming better because of you. Oh yeah. One of the people dropping letter on the street and say, I'm creating job opportunities. It's your university becoming better because of you. It's where you stay becoming better because of you. Or somebody. If you are not acting value, then something is wrong with you. It's your job becoming better because of you. It's your boss. It's your colleagues becoming better because of you. It's work.

27:48Are they becoming better because of you? Ask your neighbor, pastor, ask her a question. I think it's improving because of you. Many Christians. Many Christians have a wrong mindset. They have not developed a blessing mindset. They developed a dependence mindset. I'm waiting for someone to bless me. There's nobody coming. You are the one that they're waiting for. So that you become a blessing to them. Does that make sense? So before you become a blessing to your church, start being a blessing at home. Your family can't be crying at home. And you want to do great things outside. Start at home. Start at home. Your wife can't be crying at home. And you are blessing the world outside. No. You know, the first person I enjoy serving is my wife. Man, what a delight it is. I was telling yesterday that I like you. I think I like you. Like I like you.

28:50You're my type. I like you. Musa, before I come and say I love you church, does your wife know your love? Does your family know the warmth of your love? Before you're present for everybody else. Do those that you're supposed to be present for? Do they know you? Because it's very easy. It's very easy to take people for granted. Until they're no longer there. Does your family know? Guys, I love you. I'm praying for you. Do they know that you're praying for them? Do they know that? So you're called first to be a blessing at home. Where are you called to be a blessing at home? At home. Before you take the nation's go home. Take the family. Before you do big things go home. And do big things at home. And be present at home. Hallelujah. And be present where? At home. Right? If your home is address right now because that's your room. Don't be the roommate from hell.

29:52All right, please. All right, number two. Then be a blessing to your church. Be a blessing to your church. You are called to be a blessing. Number three. Be a blessing to society and the community at large. Hallelujah. Be a blessing. Be a blessing. So I'm blessed to be a blessing. So from today start thinking blessing thoughts. I'm blessed to be a blessing. Every day I'm blessed so that I may be a blessing. Hallelujah. Who is giving God thanks because of your life? Go and be a blessing to your friends. You are so entitled. You know everything that people didn't do for you. But what have you done for others? No, Abna. You know, you are positive people and not people. You know, after not please stop. Stop that. Stop that. Yes. Okay. Delight to be a blessing. Look for who can be better because of you. Can your friends really count on you? Now, Pastor Me, I really don't have friends.

30:52That's also another problem. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. That's also another problem. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. That is also, you know, there are certain things. If you are truly a good person and you have good friends and you have done good with your friends, you can never be homeless. I, many of the things which are your prayer points are because you are a bad human being. I promise you. Okay. I, I need a commentation. Why won't your comment date me? Because I'm good people. But if you notice that no one wants to eat because you're not soon. And the Bible says here that must have friends must show himself friendly. Must show himself friendly. But Pastor people are not loyal. That is part of life, unfortunately. Okay. Just because it's raining outside doesn't mean you won't get to go. You will get umbrellas. You will get rain cause. But we are going outside.

31:52Just because you, you can't say that no. I want to relate to the people because people are not loyal. Ever. Don't do that. Okay. Just keep going on. You will find the loyal ones. You will find the good ones. And you just keep bringing and you just keeping you. You will find good friends. Who, who can match your energy. Who will go to say I'm paying. I never knew all of the other times I used to pay for people. Does that make sense? Okay. Now please. Go work on your friendships. Yeah. Yeah. It goes for consent for court. Some of this. Yes. Yes. Yes. Some of these depressions is because you are alone. You thought that having an iPhone will mean you have arrived. You are. Now you've got an iPhone. You are on every app. But you long for connection. Yeah. Because you, you arrived at a opponent that's crawling. He's not really doing it. Okay. So now you need to put the phone down and go out and make friends. Because I'm high. High. I want you to be my friend.

32:52Nice smile. Yes. Yeah. I'll see you next week. Does that make sense? Because you guys, you feel like just because, or I followed him and she followed me. It means we're friends. It doesn't mean that. Go work on your friendship. And be humble enough. Be a, your problem is you want friends. For a level that you're not yet at. Should I help? What? I was talking to somebody. And they're like, oh, pasta. So you come and like, I'm not your friend. Right? We're talking. It was not, it was not, it was not this thing. It was just a good conversation. But at some point it's like, I'm not your friend. That on Saturday morning I'm planning on to drive to come see you. You see, make your own friends who can drive to see you on Saturday. You know, and the person was laughing. I was trying my luck, pasta. So I'm saying this. I can become your friend. But there are many things you have to do to get your point where we can become friends.

33:55There's a value you must add on yourself. So that when we meet as friends, the water is settled. But if we meet and it's me who's always born, then you are not my friend, you are my mentee. When it's friends, it's iron sharpens iron. Hallelujah. So you can right now work on yourself. You'll find a level of friends. And you work on yourself somehow, you find another level of friends. There's always a higher level. It's just waiting for you to become a higher person. Hallelujah. Yeah. There's always another level. I remember those times. All of my friends used to ask me, can I have 200 friends? Can I have 200 friends? I told my wife and I started praying. And I started praying. Then now I've got friends who come and say, hey, bro, do you need anything? I'm like, these are the friends. These are the friends I've been. Then I'm like, no, no, I don't need anything. No, no, I'm sure. Yeah, yeah, no.

34:55Give me the pen details for night of messy. I've transferred some money, bro. I'm like, where have you been? Geneseo, I'm saying to you. Because I also am that to my friends. You see, I'm also that to my friends. So I'm encouraging you today. Don't tie a loan. It depression only started now with the new kinds of smartphones. Yeah. Guys, guys, we went to high school. We were not depressed about anything. When Mixed came out, we were like, okay, but we're not doing it. Your problem now is you're comparing your life with someone in Bali, someone in Ethiopia, someone. Huh? It's just a lot. You feel like your life is not good until you go to Thailand. Until you feel like your life is not good, but that you're blessed enough to go to a central city or whatever. You no longer see that as a blessing. Yeah. Yeah. I promise you.

35:56Guys, I promise you. You are blessed. But Satan will always make it seem like you are not that blessed. You are not as blessed. Okay, some of you remember the days when you were using palmial transportation. You're like, if I can make a... Now you cut the... You are still depressed. One of the... One of the tricky things about Cape Town is you will feel like having staff money whatever will make you feel good in this city. Actually, that depresses you more. Because you live a decent accommodation, you live the money, you live wi-fi, you live everything and you can drive anywhere to any restaurant. But there's no one to drive with. Having a car doesn't mean you're friends. Yes. Even after a change that gets over going together, yes, it does mean you're a transporter. Yes.

36:56My friend, if you're my friend, I should know you're my friend. And you should know you are my friend. But then a guy with friendship is like marriage. We must propose each other. Okay, let me teach you about friendship. Friendship is, I come and I tell you, at the same time, you are my friend from today. When I call you better, pick up. I take that from today when I call you... When you call me, I will pick up. Even at 2 a.m. Friendship needs to choose from today. You. You are what? My friend. Yes. Yes. Yes. From today, I want you in my life. You choose your friends. So, if you've never said that, you know, Tommy, I've chosen you to be. And don't even... You know, because you're an irrational coulouma. You speak a lot. Hey, Tommy. I'm a friend. You've got all the right words, but wrong. Effect. No. Because it's just words. So, you'll have to say, from today, you are my friend. Yes.

37:56And some of them said that, even if you're a stubborn, I don't love you. I think you're a good guy. I think my life will be better with you. I think I need someone as loyal like you in my corner and from today, you're my friend. I want to grow with you. I want you to live with you. You say, you don't want that vulnerability and that being genuine. Because you want to be the big girl. You want to be the one that they come to. Huh? You want to be the big girl. You will stay with no friends. Don't forget your friends are not your supporters. They are friends. Supporters are not your friends. Two different things. Doesn't make sense. So, you, I don't look. Musa, I feel you are a good guy. I don't have an ego about my life. Because what I want is a friend, not an ego massage. So, from today, Musa, you are my friend. If you see me calling wrong, correct me.

38:56I'll give you permission. Correct me. Hold me accountable. Call me into order. Because you are my friend. What's this thing that you said that you've got 1,000 friends but no one can call you into order? You don't have friends. You need to have someone that when they call you and they say, what's that post that you post it? They will ask you never who holds you to account. That's why you're making mistakes you shouldn't be making. Because no one is there to hold you to account. Yes. Who's your friend? Musa will say that, open your banking app. Do you have savings? And then say that, no. No, no, no, no. From today, you must have savings. Yeah. You're going to have a month and you're going to show me your savings. And they will hold you accountable to it. Who's that? You notice that you think you are good. The puzzle's two is better than one. That's why your progress is taking forever to materialize

39:57because you are the, you are all in all. You are alpha and omega. Even when Jesus sent them, He sent them out to bite. Okay, so who's your two-by-two? Who's your two-by-two? Who's sharpens? Who's sharpens? You iron sharpens iron. Not who is jealous of you. I'm saying, who's sharpens you? Who makes you better than after the conversation? They also, they, you come out to Nike's quarters talking to me. You know when you say that, it's a confirmation of this. You know when you say that, who's your friend? Who's your friend? I'm asking you. Can you say that your ego is kept from heaven, friends? Guys, humble yourself. Just call to that lady and say, please be my friend from today. It doesn't mean they are perfect. It doesn't mean you are perfect. But it means that you have a friend from today. Remember this, that story, I really, you know, I, God gave me a different perspective. Luke chapter 11. When they say that, who amongst you will have a friend?

40:58That you'll go at midnight and say, friend, please borrow me some bread because another friend of mine has come. And that, excuse me. And then what does he begin to say? He says that, I can't do that because I'm already in bed. Right? And my children are right with me. So many people take that and say, because Jesus was teaching on prayer, it's kind of like it's a prayer, but you will keep on insisting. Up until then he rise up and he gives them what he was, right? But for me, I always looked at it and said that, I don't want a friend who, when I come in need, they feel inconvenienced. Look, that's what friendship is. Friendship is said, I give you permission to inconvenience me. I give you permission to call me at 2 a.m. To wake me up at 4 a.m. I give you, Genesis, what friendship is? Friendship is, I give you permission to come skip on my couch until you can get to our right accommodation. That's what friendship is. But you guys, you notice you don't have friends. You just have people that don't have contractual obligations.

42:03Yeah. Are you here when I'm saying to you? Yes. Okay, right now, you know many people in different parts of South Africa. If you needed to be in Chopin tonight, who will accommodate you? Who will accommodate you? Can you say that you don't have friends? Okay, if you need someone to take you to the airport right now, and you don't need open money, your car is not working, who can drive you there? And who is that you don't have to refund? Can you say that you're living with refunds? Because you're not cultivating friendship is costly. But the dividends are worth it. Friendship is costly, but the dividends are worth it. Look at you never say, called build friends. Call make friends. Yes, call make friends. Stop this thing that you're doing. Call make friends. Call make friends. Call make friends. And because you're my friend, I'll tell you to me,

43:03I can't always be paying when you go out. You're my friend, I have to tell you the truth. You are angry as your problem. I don't know how did we get there. It is not in my notes at all. Plus life, so call build friends. Call what, Musa? And just that you are pinnig the church. Musa tells many of your friends. Don't make that mistake. That you're pinnig around and the church people know you. People can know you. I also know, do you know Donald Trump? I know him too. It means nothing. Because this is what happens at Musa on the day of adversity. What the Bible calls an evil day, right? On that day, you will need your friends to come stand with you. Church members can come to what church members can do. But when Job was in trouble, who came? Was it his friends? And they sat down for seven days with him. It's your friend. It's your friend.

44:03It's your friend. Musa, I'm asking you. Who can stop what they are trying to come where you are? I'm asking you now. Or acting. Who? That's if you say right now. You know, I'm driving. I'm on M5 and something happened to my car. And then they come. They stop what they are trying. Shell location. I'm on my way. Who can say I'm on my way for you? If it's not the police and fire brigade. Who? Who? Do you hear what I'm saying to you? I'm challenging you to go high. I'm challenging you. Guys, listen to me. There are good people. I promise you, there's more good people than bad people. I promise you, I challenge you. Give friendship a chance. The problem is don't make your friends your alpha and omega there. They are a part of your life. Not your life. your life if the problems if you don't have purpose their purpose will intimidate you

45:06who is supposed to compliment you I'm asking you now you've got your prayer project who plays with you who do what's up and say let's pray by Wednesday we need an who who can fast with you to say I'm not having breakfast lunch and supper because my friend is in trouble who only the police to where are you selling only the police and your pastor pastor they arrested me where are you we are coming we are coming but certain things are not necessary for your friends guys don't let the devil deceive you you are easy to defeat when you are alone don't let Satan deceive you if you don't have friends prayer about it

46:09it's something worth praying about in this month of March people that you can be and also your other problem can I see another problem you meet this friend and you want to tell them all of your past that's your problem you want it don't do that don't do that especially ladies I'm talking to ladies now yeah that's what I'm saying to you yes yes because you know I told you my secret and she didn't tell me a secret so I started hey hey child of God child of God child of God take it easy okay take it easy what you do to never know secrets so take it easy love people relate to the people and that's that all right all right say Lord help me choose right friends okay friends who are going far also I'm looking for friends who are going far so if I've noticed if you have no license you've got friends with no license because show me your friends

47:12and I'll show you where you're going so if you're saying I want to go far get others were also wanting to go yeah and your past is not your friend his friendly but it's not your friend you know your friend my son your friend is the type of person that you could be near restaurant like this come relax right and you're talking and the table next door can't see it because hearts too hot you know what else else to know because you know my friend carries my heart who carries your heart you are against one help you Genesome sent you who right now if we are arrested who must we give the phone to because you know whether bodies are buried like when you arrive

48:15there's no bring his phone here please no no no don't worry we'll sort out everything let me ask you if you are arrested now who can organize bell money for you who can call lawyers for you besides your pastor who it's over for you live my wife live my wife someone is saying first lady leave us leave us come make friendship okay come make friends be intentional about it yes and you don't have to have 1000 people your friends know just have your friends that you know that and and also don't try to appear perfect in those friendships no one is perfect everyone is their own issues just be authentic be you doesn't make sense be you love sincerely love since and when that system of friendship is

49:15over because sometimes friendship I for a season when it's over don't cut people off you see all this be honorable never forget what people have done for you if in the next season when you're not so close I can because there's a season now your quarters brought you with another circle of friends always remember that most hours there with me when no one was there doesn't make sense so there are people that for me even if I no longer call them every single day their children are implicated in goodness because of what their fathers teach to me as a friend doesn't make sense don't be a treacherous person don't be a treacherous person that's how every two to three we can tell you're catching people off you you will be alone with cats I tell you you'll be buying cats alone humble yourself and see value in people and the other you see the problem you're trying to look for yourself in others you can't find yourself what Musa is a Musa is a very loyal guy if right now say Musa drop he

50:18can drop it for me and come right so that is what I need we call fights together right so you need to know this is the value I get from this one this is the value I get from this one so that you know for example okay Musa you're buying your property remember we came without properties today who do you call and whose advice settles you that if they said to me let's not buy this property it's done you see you're too alone if you're buying a car who do you send that to me this is the kind thing of pie and then they said but to me to remember you're still paying off that that loan how won't you struggle and even if you're quiet and you and you buy that car and you're struggling another part of me I told you yeah I saw him sent you okay let me ask you who can tease you who can make fun of you who's that person that you can get those memes you know those memes that you can't say to the church what's up group but I need to say to my friend who's that person to you who's that person if you

51:21notice that if you've got a meme and there's no one to say you're in trouble that's why for me I was really upset last year when one of my friends died you know because we were at that level of sharing memes so now I'm developing others when I if I share meme lent to respond I had lent to respond to my memes it matters to me it matters to me uh lent to respond yes you you teach your friend a when I when I send you a meme huh lent to respond how should I respond send another meme yes okay yeah I hope I'm helping because some of you you've got very blessed friends now let's close it let's try and close it here say every blessing I need is in salvation hallelujah Romans chapter 623 the Bible says that the wages of sin is death by the gift of God is eternal life I want us to read Romans chapter 4 verses 6 to 8 in ERV

52:25but Tanaka I want to propose to you that beyond money beyond opportunities beyond access to the who's who in this world salvation is the greatest blessing what's a little profit I meant to gain the whole world and lose the lose your soul doesn't matter who your friend is if you're not born I can you are truly not blessed but Tanaka there's something about salvation being saved that unleashes a wave of blessings in your life they are not all just financial but you just know on the inside I'm blessed I'm a blessed man I'm a blessed woman does that make sense even though my life can be complicated and challenging now but I am blessed right David said the same thing when you are talking about the blessing people have when God accepts them as good without looking at what they have done look at the blessing that God accepts us as good without looking

53:26at what we have done hallelujah man what your blessing it is when people are forgiven for the wrongs they have done when their sins are erased what your blessing it is when the Lord accepts people as if they are without sins do you know what is so good he accepts people as if they are without do you know why your friendships are not working because you don't accept people as if they are without sin you said just stand at for your friends that you you can't keep I remember somebody I said yesterday when I I think there's something about friendship in the air that we need to settle now because I'm trying to leave it but it's coming back I feel I feel it in my heart you know you put your standard for people that you can't keep I have room someone I said I was like oh you know Trump I know I used to like the guy know that guy he he's just using Christianity as a fast and I'm like how many Christians are doing that as well like I know because look at the decisions that he makes and I say to him

54:29leading a country is not leading is not the same as leading a cell group yes you don't get confused you know for you to be a cell leader who's and can't not live a holy life live a righteous life for you to be a president of a country that's not the criteria you can have ten wives that's your own business do you know that you can lead a country Musa and the right thing for you to choose to get is to start your what you kill people and in the eyes of court that is right and you're and you're praying for them father I pray and the police here the police you're right to want the police go to hell and you pray and God blesses the whole you say you need to understand that God is not a politician like you think politics is yeah you want to say take it and collect are you aware that David was killing a man and I said wow David and God I would keep curtains so I'm trying to yes and God helped him and you

55:30have been praying oh God let my enemies fall you are praying for the help me win and God answers your prayers doesn't sense yeah okay now please let's not start so you are blessed you blessed as the people and God accepts them as though without sin second Corinthians chapter 1 verses 20 for all the promises of God someone say all the promises of God right I in him and they are all the promises of God are in Jesus Christ guys the promises of God are not in your ancestors the promises of God are not in any sangoma the promises of God are not in your pastor the promise of God are not in your nationality the promises of God are in Christ and they are in him amen and to

56:35the glory of God through us. Amplified. So anything that God has promised, Pastor Sama, the legitimate way to get it is through Christ. That's why Ping Pona can gives you access to the blessed life. What gives you access to the blessed life? Ping Pona can. It gives you access to the blessed life which makes you rich and as no sorrow. Amplified if you have it. For all, not some of the promises. All of the promises of God are in Him. They are in Christ. So if you want the promise, would you go to Christ? Amen. The one day. There was a certain father. Father, yeah. He was very rich, right? Very wealthy. And he had a portrait of his son his son died. And when he had now died, there was a will written, right? He wrote on the

57:40will, very rich guy with houses, all this beautiful estate. When he died, then they're doing this auction. And the first thing that they were doing in the auction was the portrait of his son, right? Was the portrait of his son. Remember, there's Lamborghini's, there's Benches, there's Ross Royce, there's all these beautiful estates, right? And so people have come, oh man, I'm going to get a Lamborghini, I'm going to get this, I'm going to get that. There's other paintings, the Mona Lisa, all these expensive paintings. Guess what? The auctioneer comes and starts with this portrait of the son, the son of this man. And who wants the picture of this son? No one is taking the picture, no one is taking the picture. And the picture of the son, who wants the picture? Hey, by 10 a.m, we can't promise it. This is the instruction we must start off with this picture. And for the sake of time, one guy at the back who was a janitor, who was a cleaner, lives up his end and says, okay, for a dollar, I'll take the picture of the son. And then the guy bangs the cover and says, sold to that man. And then he bangs the cover and says, the auctioneer is concluded. Because the instruction was this,

58:44whoever gets the son gets everything else. Whoever gets the, gets what? The same with God, whoever gets Jesus gets everything else. Get everything else. So if you are ignoring a relationship with Jesus, because you are waiting for the auction to move to the part of the Lamborghini, you have missed it because the, for as many as other promises of God, in Christ, they are yes. So through him, we say our amen to the glory of as many as other promises of God, the promise to bless you, to heal you, to deliver you, to protect you, to provide for as many as the promises of God, to preserve you in a time of famine. These promises in Christ are yes. That means outside of Christ, it's no, but in Christ, they are yes. And he who gets the son gets everything else. So do you want the blessed life? Get the

59:51son. Walk with the son. Live with the son. Christ in me, the hope of glory. Build an intimate relationship with the son. And everything else, seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness. And all these things shall be added after you. Many Christians are seeking the editions instead of seeking the son. Delight yourself in the Lord. And you shall grant you your hearts desire. Martha, Martha, you are worried about many things. But one thing is needed. And Mary is chosen. The one thing is needed. Most are not two. One thing just sit at the feet of the sun. Just fellowship with the sun and everything else that you need. Maryage, that you need a job that you need. The house that you need. All these things, the car, the husband, the wife, the millions of rents. All these things will be happily

1:00:52added to you. That's the protocol. So if either you're going to spend the rest of your life chasing stuff or you're going to just get the son. You're going to just give me the son. And when you I have the son, I have everything that I need. Hallelujah. I have healing. Healing becomes the children's bread. Deliverance becomes angels are assigned to me because I have the son. Today, God is saying if you can get the son, you have it all. God is saying to you that if you can focus on the son, everything else will come into alignment. Hallelujah. He that is the son gets everything else. All right, let's close quickly. How do you activate the blessings? Tonight is today's a close, right? Number one, you need to study the word of God. The word of God is the book of blessings. The people that know what the word of God says shall be strong. Okay, you want to be blessed. How do you know what God has instead if you don't read the word of God? But then the guy is

1:01:53the first of March today. I want to challenge you. Start today. Start. Go to home tonight and start it in the Bible. One chapter a day. One chapter a day. You begin to learn things in the word of God. Healing is for you. Wisdom is for you. Deliverances for you. I know the plans I have for you. Those plans are only revealed through the book. Right? You remember in Luke chapter four verses 17, the power says, and Jesus came and you found where it was written in the scriptures. So if in Jesus here to read the book, you want the blessed life, you cannot do it without the word of God. My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge, for ignorance of the word of God. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. You can know, you can study pharmacy medical science, but if you don't study the word, you don't know the promises of God. Amen. You don't know. So when you pray, that's when many of us are prayer lives and not so rich because we are just, we don't know what is available. So we can't come and say, Lord, you promised you'll say it in your word. Amen. So what does God say in your word in his word to a better than one? How can you claim an argument free

1:02:59marriage if you don't know what God has said? Okay. You need to know what the word says for you to be able to stand on it in prayer. Does that make sense? God says you're the head only, above only not beneath your head and not the tail. If you don't know that you can fail as a student. So it's time we go back into the Bible. It's time you get back into the word of God for yourself. For who? For yourself? For yourself? It's time that you begin to start the scripture for yourself. Number two, prayer activates the blessing. First Chronicles chapter four verses nine to ten, prayer activates the blessings. So the word of God gives you knowledge of the blessings, but prayer activates the blessings. Do you know why many of us is like what blessed temporarily? Our blessings are on and off. Can I tell you something powerful? That God showed me last night as I was starting and preparing for this, right? Do you know why it's like what you could be blessings and

1:04:01you say it's because you are living on borrowed prayers. You are living on borrowed prayers. Right? You are living on someone someone else's brain. Yes. So that's why it was a pasta pray. Say it word. That's borrowed prayer. The best way for you to live in perpetual blessings is become prayer for yourself. First Chronicles guys you are taking long please I'm trying to wrap up, all right? First Chronicles borrowed prayer is where by your mother was praying for you. Is where your pasta is praying for you, but you are not praying for yourself. That is one of the worst things that can happen because should the day you need to pray come and you don't know how to pray. Listen, I believe in education. I have some, right? But a good prayer life is better than any degree. I promise you, a good prayer life is better than any degree. We don't ask pray for prayer sake. We want to be effective in our prayer

1:05:03lives. We want to pray and get results. So cultivate your prayer life. Hello somebody. What must you do? And if you don't speak in tongues, you are missing out. You need to speak in tongues. You need because the Holy Spirit helps us because we do not know what to pray, how to pray as we ought to, but the Spirit of God helps us in that weakness by helping us pray. So every child of God must must speak in tongues. That is your prayer language. Chapters. First Chronicles chapter 4 verses 9 to 10. You know the scripture, did someone open it for me? Now chapters was more honorable than his brothers and his mother called his name. Chapters said, because I bore him in pain. Next verse. And chapters called on the court of Israel saying, all that you would bless me indeed. You see, his mother already written him off. I bore him in pain. Chapters means one who causes pain and enlarge my

1:06:04tear. What is his pray? That should bless me indeed and enlarge my territory. That your hand would be with me and that should keep me from evil so that I may not cause pain. So God granted him what he requested. If you don't ask for blessings that one show up, you activate them by prayer. God says, you have not because you ask not. So ask until you pray. It's not coming to you. So I want to give you what I call the chapters challenge. Right? I want you to declare this prayer for yourself the next 31 days, 30 days. Every single day I want you to pray this prayer. It's a simple prayer. It takes less than a minute. You call before God every day in the morning or in the evening. That should bless me indeed and enlarge my territory. Let this be your confession. Let this be your prayer. That your hand would be with me today as I call. Right? And enlarge my territory. That should keep me from evil and that I might not cause pain. So this is your prayer for the every

1:07:05single day you pray this prayer for yourself. Right? Print it out. Put it by your mirror. Print it out. Put it somewhere where you're going to sit every day. And when you sit begin to pray. You can pray two, three times a day. You can pray for you are going to sit by the end of this month. You'll be swimming in strange realms of favor. Yeah. One guy who wanted his life to change. Right? Wanted. 127 day fast. And this was the only prayer point. Right? After seven days, when his pastor looked at him, he said, what did you do? This is why pastor says because on your forehead, I see second chronicles. Right? Chapter four verses nine and ten. So it means that guy in the realm of the spirit and prayed the thing until he was marked by it. Okay? And from that time his life changed. Strange opportunity started coming for the guy. Hallelujah. Yeah. Number three, where you activate the blessing is tithing. Malachi chapter three verses 10. Malachi chapter

1:08:08three verses 10. So number one, you're going to study the book of promises, right? The book, the word of God. Number two, you're going to pray to activate the blessings because you can be blessed, but the blessings are activated. Number three, tithing, giving, bring all the tith. All not some bring all the tith into the storehouse. That is the house of God. That may be food in my house. That may be what? Say, say I'm responsible for bringing food in God's house. Look at him say you are responsible for bringing food in God's house. Amen. Amen. Who's responsible? All right. And how do I bring food in God's house by bringing my tithing, my 10% of my income, 10% of my salary, 10% bring my tithing and my offerings, bringing my partnership into the house of God. Hallelujah. That's how I bring food into the house of God. If you don't like the food in the house of God,

1:09:12then change what you're bringing. Bring something better. Bring something stronger. Hallelujah. I said, Hallelujah. That may be food and try me now in this. So God is saying try me by bringing your tithing. This is the only vessel in the Bible because it's try me. This is when tithing and offering. Try me now in this is the Lord of force. If I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessing that there will be not enough room to receive it. So tithing releases the blessings. So prayer activates the written of the word. Now I know I'm blessed in this area. When you pray the blessings are activated, but when you tie them, they come down. Many of you, your clouds, I have you with blessings, but you're not unlocking them because dollar or time full of prayer. Yes. You know, God, you say it in your word. You said until you sacrifice, Bob, until you must sacrifice. Sacrifice. Hallelujah. Number four, you activate the blessing by serving

1:10:21God. First Corinthians chapter 15 verses 58 in the tp t and in the amplified. So you must be a tither. Okay. You must be what? Be an aggressive tither. One thing I love upon my wife is that giving comes first. Yeah. First don't marry an untighted. That's it. Ah. Ah. People are dangerous. And as I'm saying to you, yes, tithing is not, we don't negotiate that one. My tithe, my offering, my partnership, we call it top. Right. We call it top. My tithe, my offering, my partnership, transport partnership, sound partnership, all kinds of partnership, right? Yes. And God will pull you out of blessing. Sound blessed. Yeah. The reason God expects tithes because he has blessed you with 100%. So he then lays the claim on the 10%. And then your offerings are what you, what do you feel like God is

1:11:23worth to you? Some of you feel like God is 10 run worth to you and God sees that he has increased way beyond that. That's why they have a seven-bit opening. Think about it. Think about it. Mr. Bright. I love my, I say I love my wife, right? But I only give you a hundred grand on your birthday. I have, baby, I love you. What do you think? Ladies, I only give a hundred grand and I'm say please enjoy yourself. Okay. So it's the same, it's the same when you bring, because what is an offering? It's a love offering. You're saying, God, I love you. But God sees that you've got millions there, but you're bringing 10. Then God knows that you don't love him. Yeah, you don't love him. And the power says

1:12:27no, I is in no ears that what God doesn't stop for those who love him. So there's a way that you can love God. That God begins to profess special blessings for you. And now, beloved ones, right? Seven God. All right. Look at it. It's time to serve God. Passed a smile. I've realized if you're not serving God, you'll save Satan. I kid you not. There's no neutral day. There's no neutral ground. On that day when you turn on a serve, God, you are serving Satan. That's day. Yes. Yes. There's no neutral taser. So it's either to tell you two things that are serving God or two things that are serving Satan. There is no neutral day, sir. No neutral hour. No neutral conversation. So now, beloved ones, stand firm, stable, and enduring. Leave your lives with an unshakable confidence. We know, we know that we prosper and

1:13:32excel in every season by serving the Lord. How do we prosper? How do we excel in which season? In the season when exams are not there? Huh? In the season when I'm not busy enough? When do we prosper? It means that if you run your pregnant, find a way to serve God in that season. It means that when work is demanding, find a way to serve God in that season because that is the key for your excelling and your prosperity. It is only the devil who says, stop serving God so that you can focus on your exams. God doesn't say that. He says that it's rather in that season, you are going to prosper, you are going to excel by serving God. It's the key. So, pastor, I've been trusting God for a job. No one is hiring me. Praise God. Increase your service to

1:14:36God. What can I do? God from eight until five o'clock. Lord, I'll be praying. I'll be praying. I'm going to employ myself in your kingdom. Hallelujah. How do we excel by telling a guy? Talk to me. We know that we know. It's something that a child of God must know. That I prosper and I excel in every season. Pastor, I just lost my mother in that season of loss. Serve God. Pastor, it's worth their threatening me in that season of being threatened. What did Daniel do when they threatened him? That you shouldn't pray. You prayed three times a day. Okay, if it was you, you're going to say, God understands, please, I need this job. No. In that season of being tested, serve God. The guy just dumped you. If that guy dumped you doesn't mean that you must dump the guy and the church. In that season of being dumped, what must you do? Exactly.

1:15:40Pastor, she broke my heart. In that season of heartbreak. Because some of you are like, no, I need to take a break from God in order. You can't heal. You heal by your service. When you just touch, focus on others. That's how God begins to heal you. Hello, somebody. Yeah. You're fine. You're fine. You're fine. You know, you're fine. You see, like, I'm here today. First lady is not here. She was challenged last night, right? If she was challenged last night, she became so severe during the night and whatever. In the morning, I'm praying for her. I'm laying hands on her and I'm saying, Popeye Trump. If I don't find you here, I'll find you in paradise. But I'm going to serve God. Imagine me, what's happening? You said, I can't come to church because, you know, my wife, you know, it's a season. So what should I do in that season? I'm going to excel in that season by what? Okay. Even if I stay there, am I the healer? What's your problem?

1:16:42Okay. You are staying there. What is your problem? Are you healing? Okay. Pastor, imagine, I loved the guy. He broke up with the easy season of serving God. Pastor, he cheated on me. Praise God. Now, let's serve God. Seven God is the answer to every season of your life. Pastor, I'm broke. Good, serve God. Pastor, things are not happening. Excellent. It's time to serve God. And I feel God is calling. Many of you have retired. I know you all know. Many of you have retired. This is not the retirement center. No pastor in this season, I'm discovering. This is not serving God. Pastor, you know, I want to take time to find myself. Find yourself as your serving God. You know, I thought you would live God to find themselves. They never come back. They find something else. Hallelujah.

1:17:45Save from today. In every season, I will prosper. And I will excel by serving the Lord. Yeah, that's the key. In a season where it's like no guy is proposing you, serve God. Yes, serve God. In a season where it's like the ones who are coming are not your type. Very good. Serve God even more. Hello. Yeah, serve God. In a season where it's like only the wrong kills are attracted to serve God. Serve God. You prosper by serving God. Not by reducing your service to God. It's amazing that some others or other times, you know, you could be challenged in a financial situation, right? And that's the time you are not paying your time. That's the time to be faithful in your tithing and in your offerings. Yes. In a season where it's like it's too tight

1:18:46pastor, that's the time to serve God with your finances, right? Because we're assured that our union with the Lord makes our labor productive with fruit that enjoys. Amplify it, please. Therefore, my beloved brothers and sisters, be steadfast and movable. Always excelling. Not occasional. Always excelling. Not always mediocre. You know, you know, you know, you know, I was in my office as the worship tip as it's prayers happening, right? So pastor smile. And I'm like, man, pastor smile is prayer very nice. I'm like, we can just pray the whole day. Okay. It's not for you as a minister to just say, yeah, it's to lend that so that you can now excel so that someone say, oh, Pilo leads prayer very nicely, right? Then after the worship tip came out like my God, my God, where am I? That you always excelling in the work of, it's crazy how some of you excel at work and you are meet your guide's church.

1:19:54Hello, somebody. And where do you arrive? Seven in the morning. And you live seven in the evening. Yes, you, I'm talking about you. You don't complain. But the church, if pastor pretends an extra one hour, you feel like something is wrong. Who told you that church would be one hour? I'm asking you, sleep. We'll say, why is it written in scripture? Right? If worship goes wrong, people are ready. They're looking at their tap. You're not, you can't excel with that attitude. Musa, you can't excel with that attitude of it's exam season. Therefore, I'm a soccer after all. I didn't come to come for minister. I kept you, you're mistaken. You're mistaken. I came to study. You didn't come to study. You didn't come to study. In every season, young Musa, in how many seasons?

1:20:56In every season, always be excellent. Ask your neighbor, are you really excellent? Is this really the best that you can, too? Pastor, is this the best that you can, too? So what's happening? Pastor, is this the best you can, too? So what are you doing? Musa, is this the best that you can, too? So what are you doing? If it's not the best, what are you doing? Does this the best that you can, too? I mean, between heaven and earth this is the best. Say, more, this is the best that you can, too. This is the best that you can, too. This is the best that you can, too. Ask if it's this the best you can, too. It's not even the bare minimum for some of you. You know what else depresses you? That extra energy should have used in 7 court.

1:22:01That extra energy, you know, because you should be living, change tired, you should be every day I work for the Lord, I'm working for the Lord. But you see that extra energy that you are conserving. It is what is depressing you. I promise you, I promise you, do you know what is frustrating you, it's the same ones you are not preaching. It's the wisdom you are not releasing. Yes, come on, have you ever been pressed before? You have been pressed, you feel your bladder and it's uncomfortable, you can't even enjoy yourself. Look, when God has touched you, he has touched you. Do whatever you are doing, you can't do that. Wisdom is fighting to come out. Yes, what depresses me is not preaching. I tell you, you find me not preaching or preaching at the frequency I should be preaching. I'll be very depressed for free. You tell me, what is life? What is life?

1:23:02What is this? Wisdom is fighting to come out. So that's why you say, now I'm on TikTok now, I'm teaching every day at 3 a.m. I call life. There are people, 200 people will be watching me at 3 a.m. Yes, so once I feel that I just call life, yes, whenever you're watching today, we're talking about this, whatever it is. How long will you survive not preaching? That is the thing fighting to come out, if it's your baby, if you are a singer, if those songs are fighting to come out, I'm showing, I'm curing depression because when I thought I need money, no, you need to release papers, you need to release papers. It's that business that you are not yet to fully. That is the thing, it's that thing. You know it on the inside that every time, this isn't the thing, I'm on for, but you're

1:24:05not releasing it. That is the thing. You are suffering from a broken heart because you are lacking fulfillment from purpose. Yes. Because the fulfillment that purpose gives money can't buy, whereby after church today, I have preached my heart out, I preached what God gave me to preach. You can't buy that. I go home, feeling rich, feeling content, feeling, there's a satisfaction in my life. My soul, nothing can even pilot their wind, cannot do it. Manchester United's wind can't do it. Yes. You must walk in purpose. So you must excel in the work of the Lord, always do your best and do more than. Come on, sir. Many of you here have been fed to more than enough. Yes. But the smart, you should be finding a corner, right? On Sunday, you wake up to that corner.

1:25:10Until when? Until when? Below, you should be finding a corner, doesn't make sense? I promise you, some of you know that by now, you should be so little, at least there should be 10 people that you're talking to. Hey, are you good? Did you pray? No, very important. You get to a point where that thing wants to come out. You are not meant to be a consumer, we are just sitting to pass the every single day. After I've listened to me, you are meant to go talk, talk, talk, talk, talk to others, how you live. Right? You're doing your best. Being continual, I promise you many of you today, this is a revival. It's a revival of seven courtes. It's a revival of what? Yes. You know that right now, there's five women, this minister is that, you should have started. Am I a woman who less than a woman's minister?

1:26:13You know it, that. There are masses like fire shut up in my bones. You know, you know, even if they don't pay you to do it, this must be done. How many leadership seminars should we have done by now? You know it, you know it. I came to tell somebody that, you know it, you know it, when I ate, there's something in me. You might not have a name for Ramya to tell you that it is the purpose of God in your life. You might look for other words, I think it's in you, you know it, you feel it at a corner man, you know it, you know it, you know it, you know it, it's like your lungs, you have not seen them, but you know it, I have them, greatness cannot be hidden, doesn't make sense Lefa?

1:27:13All that you are doing, become a graphic designer and court called you to preach. It's only you, it's only you, you understand? You will design post as their own work until you tell somebody and you lay hands on somebody and it's many days and in, you know that thing inside there, I talked to them, they think brought you here today. I came to tell somebody, look at Ramya, so don't kill it, express it, today you express it in front of ten people, tomorrow to be a thousand people, right? Just express it, and it won't get polished until you start expressing it, yes sir, he loves you, come on, come on, who am I, that you keep me?

1:28:15You see, this is prophecy, I don't have to say it to, I know you, I am telling you, Baba, Baba, graphic designing is not you, preaching is what you are assigned to do, doesn't make sense? If you don't become, say ten years already scheduled work for you, you understand? The gifts and talents that court has given you, you have been sitting on them for too long, because sometimes it feels like they are no longer there, they are there, I told you to stay up and keep, when I am saying to you, say ten years scheduled, scheduled for you, if you don't rise up and say no, my gifts for court, yes, plant for your gifts, I am doing what I came to do, I hear I am saying to you, yes, it's the same with you, you are, it's undeveloped, potential that's killing you, you, you have an idea, you is undeveloped,

1:29:17because you have never taken time to say God, you created me for something, what is it that I am envious with it, when I am serious about it, I am doing the best I can, are you here I am saying to you, yes, I am saying something, I am saying, you need to continue and be aware that your labor is into the point of exhaustion, to the point of what, from today I am introducing you to what is called a tired anointing, laparning to the point of exhaustion in the Lord is not futile, no wasted, it is never without purpose, so if I say to you, maybe I need to bring that chair, please bring that chair, you see she has brought that

1:30:20chair because I ask her as a man of God, right, God says that lapar is not without purpose and it is going to be rewarded, heaven is tricky, because God will be rewarding you for any little thing you did for him, you will be, you will be wishing that, oh God, I was going to kill the roof if I knew, doesn't make sense, to the point of exhaustion, yes, I was talking to someone like, and I said that, oh no cause we are changing something, and I like, no pastor, because people are tired from work, they are tired from work, are you serious, everything that was not to the point of exhaustion, have you worked until, have you ever self-cord until you are tired, and then you have to cause exhaustion and tiredness are two different things, your tired is becomes tired, now you are exhausted, yeah, a guy is sleeping 12 hours a day, I can see it from your eyes, very clear eyes,

1:31:24very innocent eyes, yeah, you will find pastors who don't read the book the whole week, not one book the whole week, the whole month, the whole year, what are they listening to, I kid you not, so you activate the blessing by serving God, you self-cord with your time, with your time, you self-cord with your talents, your gifts, your abilities, you self-cord with your treasures, hello somebody, you self-cord with your time, your talent and your, yes, some of you are very good at things that you don't want to know, if I could sing out there being in the music team, out there being that pastor was since first and then, but it's not for me, any talent I have God must enjoy first before the world enjoys it, when are your talents speaking self,

1:32:30Jenna, I'm saying to you, I want to serve God with my age, now that I'm young, that youthfulness, I'll use it to serve God, now when I'm older, that old age, I want to use it to serve God, when you don't have money, use the not having money to serve God, when you have money, use the availability of money to serve God, it's amazing how some of you used to pray, oh God, when you give me a car, I promise you not, I'll use it for the glory of God and you don't even use your God to come to church, you don't even use your God to come to church, remember the prayers you are praying as a student, it's now time you are supposed to be the manifestation of the answer, you are praying another, oh God, if you really bless me with the ring, that's why it's not really happening, right, there's nothing of mine, that's off limit for God, I remember during the night of mercy, they needed cars to carry, to carry chairs, yeah, they took my X3 boom,

1:33:34lashings tool of shh, shh, shh, shh, boom, yes, it became a parking for that night, it's not like how I imagine, my car for what, for for what, it's seven chord, right, yes, did I not say thank you to Jesus for blessing me with this car, so I have now Jesus needed for chairs, what's the problem, everything I have must have God, to the point of exhaustion, to the point of, exhaustion, yeah, so, we give God thanks, I'm closing it there, so we're starting, what we call, operation poses the land, hallelujah, we want to serve God, yes, we want to what, so, 90 days, that's...
