Ephesians 4:17-32New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (NRSVCE)
17 Now this I affirm and insist on in the Lord: you must no longer live as the Gentiles live, in the futility of their minds. 18 They are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of their ignorance and hardness of heart.
19 They have lost all sensitivity and have abandoned themselves to licentiousness, greedy to practice every kind of impurity.
20 That is not the way you learned Christ!
21 For surely you have heard about him and were taught in him, as truth is in Jesus.
22 You were taught to put away your former way of life, your old self, corrupt and deluded by its lusts,
23 and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds,
24 and to clothe yourselves with the new self, created according to the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.
25 So then, putting away falsehood, let all of us speak the truth to our neighbors, for we are members of one another.
26 Be angry but do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger,
27 and do not make room for the devil.
28 Thieves must give up stealing; rather let them labor and work honestly with their own hands, so as to have something to share with the needy.
29 Let no evil talk come out of your mouths, but only what is useful for building up, as there is need, so that your words may give grace to those who hear.
30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with which you were marked with a seal for the day of redemption.
31 Put away from you all bitterness and wrath and anger and wrangling and slander, together with all malice,
32 and be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ has forgiven you.
Galatians 5:19-24Amplified Bible (AMP)
19 Now the practices of the sinful nature are clearly evident: they are sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality (total irresponsibility, lack of self-control), 20 idolatry, sorcery, hostility, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions [that promote heresies],
21 envy, drunkenness, riotous behavior, and other things like these. I warn you beforehand, just as I did previously, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit [the result of His presence within us] is love [unselfish concern for others], joy, [inner] peace, patience [not the ability to wait, but how we act while waiting], kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23 gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law.
24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature together with its passions and appetites.
Luke 20:25 Amplified Bible (AMP) 25 He said to them, “Then pay to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”
James 1:22 New King James Version (NKJV) 22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
James 4:6 New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (NRSVCE)
6 But he gives all the more grace; therefore it says, “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
2 Corinthians 13:5 Amplified Bible (AMP)
5 Examine and test and evaluate your own selves to see whether you are holding to your faith and showing the proper fruits of it. Test and prove yourselves
Do you not yourselves realize and know [thoroughly by an ever-increasing experience] that Jesus Christ is in you—unless you are [counterfeits] disapproved on trial and rejected?
Galatians 6:3 New King James Version (NKJV)
3 For if anyone thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
1 Corinthians 8:2 Easy-to-Read Version (ERV)
2 Those who think they know something do not yet know anything as they should.
Luke 10:26-28 New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (NRSVCE)
26 He said to him, “What is written in the law? What do you read there?” 27 He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.” 28 And he said to him, “You have given the right answer; do this, and you will live.”

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 15 February 2016 titled do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God. Brothers and sisters, this is a very alarming statement.
00:18 Do not grieve. This is a command. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God.
00:22 The Spirit of God, you know, can you imagine that? But many do not even know such a scripture exists. And some do know that scripture exists, do not understand what it means. And some, they’re talking about people who call themselves Christians or Christians.
00:37 They do not know the seriousness of this. Some do not care what to do. Because let’s remember Father God through the Word of God, Jesus Christ, already written down to say, those who continuing to practice sin are born of the devil.
00:53 I mean, you sin and sin and you don’t care. You continue doing they. Father God says clearly the Spirit of God, the Word of God says they are born of the devil.
01:02 Those who are born of the Spirit of God will not want to sin. Yes, we can fall into sin, but the intention is not to fall into, not to do sin. But if you fall into sin under circumstances like fear and suddenly you lied or something, the boss told something and then you feared and lied.
01:18 I’ve dealt with this in many segments. Then in such a fear, then immediately there will be conviction. There will be a disturbance in your spirit.
01:25 Why the Holy Spirit will be disturbing you. See, you have sinned. You have sinned.
01:30 Now the only way to get sin out is confess. Confess with a humble heart. Confess to Jesus Christ.
01:36 Confess to Lord. I’m sorry, Lord. And then also confess to one another.
01:41 He says the Scriptures are very clear. Confess to one another. Go and settle with each other.
01:46 Who the brothers and sisters in Christ. Now for the others, if you done something, go and ask for forgiveness. If you’ve done something, willing to take the consequences.
01:58 Why we do not want to sin anymore. We concern ourselves with eternity. Therefore, if we keep on looking at earthly things only or worldly things all the time and refusing to look at the heavenly things, the things where your citizenship is, your citizenship is from heaven.
02:16 We keep forgetting to look there. Don’t bother to look there. And keep on looking at earthly things and worldly things.
02:22 Yesterday. The message is clear. Message is clear.
02:26 You say so now how? The message is that you will not enter the kingdom of God. You keep on doing the worldly things, will not inherit the kingdom of God. Brothers and sisters, today.
02:38 And that is called being the enemies of the cross of Christ yesterday that dealt with it. If everybody, the person who keeps on looking at the worldly things and the only worldly things, only worldly things, only earthly matters. Only earthly matters, never heavenly matters.
02:52 That means you have become an enemy of the cross of Christ. Let us not be enemies. There is hope and there is solution here.
02:59 When Jesus Christ and the word of God tells us this, this, the Word of God tells us all this. There is a solution. He is not telling us.
03:07 That’s why the word of God says rebuking from the word of God, the word of God rebukes us is actually encouragement. Why there is hope. There is a direction.
03:17 There’s eternity. Now today I’m reading from the Catholic addition. Ephesians 4:17.
03:24 Ephesians 4:17 is now this I affirm and assist before that. Ephesians 4 and I’ll jump across the weather. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit verse is there.
03:41 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God with with which you are masked. And a seal for the day of redemption. We have been marked.
03:49 Can you imagine how powerful that is? Just think of it, meditate on it. Jesus Christ has sent the Holy Spirit. Father God has sent the Holy Spirit because Jesus Christ had to go back.
03:59 And then Father God who sent the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit came. And then when we are born in the Spirit, born of the Spirit, not born of flesh and blood, then we have been marked. Marked for redemption, for the day of redemption with the seal.
04:15 And the Word says, do not grieve the Spirit of God. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God. Now Ephesians 4:17 onwards, I will read this.
04:23 So what does it mean? Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God. How do we do this? We should know by doing these things. We are grieving.
04:31 So we stop doing that. How? By the power of Jesus Christ, by the blood of Jesus Christ, by the name of Jesus Christ. We begin to meditate on the Scriptures.
04:40 And we begin to meditate on the Scriptures. We will change. Our heart and mind will change because we are spirit being born of the Spirit of God.
04:48 But our heart and mind is still this mess up. So we have to deal with these fellows. So now Ephesians 4:17.
04:55 Now this I affirm and insist on in the Lord. You must no longer live as the Gentiles live in the futility of their minds. First command.
05:05 No longer live as the unbelievers live in the futility of their minds. They think this way. No need to go about those unbelievers.
05:13 Now I go back to myself. I used to live in the futility of my mind. Can do this, can do that.
05:20 I will then do this. Okay, some problem came. Okay, we’ll do this way, we’ll do that way.
05:24 We’ll solve this. We’ll go and see so and so. All that will go on the mind.
05:29 Completely ignoring one big elephant in the room, which I do not know. I did not see the time. The elephant room is Satan.
05:36 The devil came to steal, kill and destroy two our own heart and mind. Our heart is treacherously wicked. Another elephant in the room.
05:44 Our elephant in the room is English word. They use that to say there’s a big thing there nobody wants to see. Everybody ignore, ignore them and look as if that doesn’t exist.
05:53 Our heart is treacherously wicked. Most Christians do not know or even do not know it exists, or do not want to know it exists or refuse to believe because they have a false belief whereby they say, once I’m born again, my heart all changed already. It’s not true.
06:09 If our heart has changed, all of us will be perfect from the day one after being born again, after accepting Jesus Christ into our hearts. That’s what you say. You can’t accept Jesus Christ in the heart first, it’s in the Spirit.
06:21 Accept Jesus Christ in the Spirit. We are willing to submit ourselves so our spirit is washed by the blood of Jesus Christ. By accepting Jesus Christ, our spirit, man has been given life because it was dead in sin before.
06:35 Now, brothers and sisters, now here it says, no longer live as the unbelievers do in the futility of their minds. So when you begin to live according to what your mind is telling, we are going to get a lot of mess. That means we are not being led by the Spirit of God.
06:51 We are being led by our own minds. And furthermore, our own minds have not been renewed in the Spirit. That’s why there is a command somewhere, be renewed in the Spirit and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds.
07:03 Now next verse 18. They are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance and hardness of heart. There are two elements.
07:12 Why we were all like that, why I was like that. I’m darkened in my understanding. So the way God says, Father, God says through the word of God.
07:20 No longer live as unbelievers do in the futility of their minds, because they have been darkened in their understanding. So I have been darkened in my understanding, before I came to Lord Jesus Christ, before he brought me, before he drew me and arrested me and settled me, despite my own nonsense, in spite of myself. Alienate from the life of God because of the ignorance and hardness of heart.
07:41 Why ignorance? One has hardness of heart. Don’t want to listen. I’ve seen this.
07:47 When we are showing scripture to people, they don’t listen. Some of them terrible. And then we say, look, it’s not me saying this is the word of God saying, no, no, no, there’s another interpretation or something.
07:58 Then read for yourself. Nothing. We can sue.
08:01 Read several interpretations to get the right one. What they are doing? They’re looking for interpretation that suits them. Suits their darkened understanding.
08:10 They want or their way. I want my way. So I look for interpretation that I want.
08:15 Now, just like a child, you know, ask a mother something. Cannot get. Go to the father, go and ask everybody until they get something.
08:19 Go to the aunties, go to the uncles. Because they want their way. So Brothers, this is today.
08:30 19. They have lost all sensitivity and have abandoned themselves to licentiousness. Greedy to practice every kind of impurity.
08:40 Now this is what happens when you are darkened in the understanding and then alienated from the life of God. And ignorant. Hardness of greed comes greed comes greed comes more and more and more.
08:51 Practice more and more of the same evil things. Practicing more and more. It was happening to me.
08:56 It happened to me. Became more and more drunk. I started one beer years ago.
09:00 After that became more and more and more and more and more and more and more and all kinds of drinks drunk. It comes worse and worse because they darken the understanding. One thing, okay, next thing.
09:11 This is not the way you learned Christ. This is 2020. The Scriptures are telling.
09:15 That is not the way you learned Christ. For surely you have heard about him and were taught in him. As truth is in Christ.
09:22 In Jesus. As truth is in Jesus. 22.
09:25 You are taught to put away your former way of life. Your old self corrupt and deluded by its lust. So our old self was corrupted and deluded by its lust.
09:35 Deluded means conflict. Delusion. Deceived by the lust.
09:39 The lust of our old self. Our old self, the heart and mind. No, they want the old thing.
09:43 We are told to put away that. So put on the new man. Isn’t it now? And to be renewed in the spirit of your mind.
09:50 In the spirit one spirit. Spirit of your mind. 24.
09:53 And to clothe yourself with a new self created according to the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. And to clothe yourself. I have to clothe myself with the new self created according to the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.
10:12 Now my spirit man has been created in true righteousness holiness. Now this true righteousness holiness must transfer to my mind and my heart. Therefore it must be renewed in the spirit of my mind.
10:23 So in this one it’s now. 24 so then, putting away falsehood, let all speak the truth to our neighbors, for we are members of one another, members in these neighbors. I am brothers and sisters in Christ, speaking the truth to our neighbors, to one another, speaking to one another.
10:44 We are members of one another. 26 Be angry and do not sin and do not let the sun go down on your anger. This I have spoken in length another place, because anger is spiritual.
10:55 You go to sleep, do not let the sun go down. Anger means do not go to sleep. Finally, with the anger in you, evening itself, you should have already dealt with it.
11:05 If not, the spirit of anger will be waxing and hammering your spirit man all night long your body is sleeping and you get up with all kinds of problems unrested. And of course sickness also will come now. That is why God said, do not let the sun go down on your anger.
11:21 Be angry and do not sin. Sometimes people may provoke you and your natural anger may come up. But if you begin to sin and all that and the spirit of anger will take over, and the spirit of anger is a demon, you can’t deal with it unless in the name of Jesus Christ commanded you to go.
11:37 27 do not make room for the devil. Do not give the devil a foothold. Be angry and do not sin.
11:43 Do not let the sun go down on your anger. Next word is, do not make room for the devil. Do not give the devil a foothold because you are angry and go to sleep evening you don’t deal with it, you will settle it.
11:53 You are going to give the devil a foothold and he is going to take control. The only way is the name of Jesus Christ. You cast him out and then you forgive and all that.
12:03 These thieves must give up stealing. Rather let them work and labor honestly with their own hands so as to have something to share with the needy. 29 Let no evil talk come out of your mouths, but only what is useful for building up as there is need no evil talk, no gossiping, no slander, no murmuring, and do not grieve the Holy Spirit with which you are marked with a seal for the day of redemption.
12:31 31 put away from you all bitterness and wrath and anger and wrangling and slander together with all malice. And be kind to one another, kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ has forgiven you. Now brothers and sisters, all that the Word of God says from 17, say, say, say.
12:52 And then in 30 he says, do not give the Holy Spirit. That means now the main issue here is to put away our old self and not to live like the unbelievers in the futility of your minds. So when your mind begins to kick in, you better begin to go to the Word of God and check whether your mind is thinking right or is your mind thinking as the world is thinking.
13:16 Now, if you only go to the Word of God, you will see that the Word of God is very clear. In that instance, if you don’t know how to search that particular scripture for yourself, call the Moderator. Somebody will search it for you.
13:28 Go to the graceoflife.com www.graceoflife.com and there is a list of people that you can ask help. They will find the Scriptures for you and give to you.
13:38 And you meditate on the Scriptures. They will counsel you even. They will pray with you even.
13:43 Because we want every soul to be presented as a chaste virgin to Christ. And they do all this happily, willingly, joyfully unto Christ. Unto Christ.
13:53 Now, brothers and sisters, this is very clear. If we do not put our old selves away and put on the new self that is in Christ, given by Spirit of Christ, the righteousness, holiness, then we are grieving the Holy Spirit. When you grieve the Holy Spirit.
14:08 Now understand this. Let’s just say one person grieves the Holy Spirit all day long, all the time, and then suddenly you got trouble already. Oh, let me pray.
14:17 Pray for me. Pray for me. It’s not going to work.
14:19 First, why? Because. Pray for me. For me.
14:23 You have to accept Jesus Christ. You have to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. Because we’re going to call on Jesus Christ, heal you.
14:32 But then if you do not accept Jesus Christ, you do not accept His Word. I mean, you do not accept Jesus Christ means you do not accept the Word of God, which is Jesus Christ. Now, we do not accept the Word of God and then you want everybody to pray.
14:44 It may not work. That’s why I said we have to teach people. We are teaching people to pray.
14:50 Take the I will pray and begin to pray every day. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God by doing all this nonsense.
14:59 Now we are changed. We are Bought by blood, precious blood. He bought.
15:03 He suffered like that to still precious blood. And with the blood just say blood of Jesus. Blood of Jesus also can.
15:10 What more we need? Even you don’t know scripture, immediately got trouble. Blood of Jesus, blood of Jesus. Blood of Jesus.
15:16 And the things will go away. Forgive all you see. You have to forgive without forgiveness.
15:21 Jesus Christ already said, father God will not forgive you. If you do not forgive, Father God will not forgive you. And there are some teachings which are false.
15:29 We say, no, no. Once you accept it as being a Christian, if you didn’t forgive also, it’s okay. Not true.
15:34 They are sending you to damnation. Better remember wolves and sheep clothing are lying to you. They’re giving you a feel good factor.
15:41 Feel good factor is not going to get you to heaven. The truth is going to get you to heaven. And his name is Jesus Christ.
15:46 Brothers and sisters, today, let’s understand this. Please meditate on this. Ephesians 4, 1732 in any translation of Bible.
15:55 You got any Bible? Take and read that. Meditate on it. Because you do not want to grieve the Holy Spirit.
16:01 And you keep grieving the Holy Spirit also. Remember when you got problems, first repent. Don’t run away.
16:07 Don’t say, oh, I’ve been grieving the Holy Spirit. So now I cannot, I cannot ask. I’m in trouble.
16:11 I cannot pray. I cannot ask him. He will not do anything for me.
16:14 Not true. You come to him, ask for forgiveness first. But you don’t come to him.
16:18 Come to Father God or Jesus Christ and say, I, I want this, I want that. Help me healing or whatever. First repent.
16:26 Say, I’m sorry, I’ve sinned. I don’t want to sin anymore. I’ve sinned against you as God, Jesus Christ has sinned against you.
16:32 Forgive me. Wash my sins. First deal with the sin issue.
16:35 Because 80% of illnesses come from sin issue. I’ve dealt with that again in some treatment. Brothers and sisters, today, remember when you have done all these things, when you have a problem and you’re running to God, don’t run away.
16:47 Run to Jesus Christ and ask for forgiveness. First deal with the sin. Not straight with the issue.
16:52 Oh, pray for me, settle me. Won’t work because the devil is only going to hammer you. In Jesus Christ’s name, I pray you will do this.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 29th September 2015 titled To Know God is in control. To know your God. My God is in control.
00:11 God is in control. Brothers and sisters, today again mercies are new every morning for those who love God. And today I wake up full of hope to do what he wants me to do and willingness to do it.
00:31 Willingness to do it. Thank Jesus Christ. Brothers and sisters, today, whoever is facing any difficulties.
00:33 Brothers and sisters, yes some of you may be getting up with some difficulties. But remember God is in control. God is in control.
00:44 The problem is to make our heart to once and for all or belief from time to time when the issues are coming up to to believe that God is in control. God is in control. Our mind and our fallen nature, heart and mind won’t want to believe that God is in control for many reasons we’ll come to that.
01:07 So the problem is it’s our mind. So we have to renew our mind in the spirit. And when we command that in the name of Jesus Christ and keep on looking at the words of God to convince us not only are the words of God, take the word of God in relation to your relationship to your issues that you’re facing and look at the past.
01:30 How many times Jesus Christ has done things for you? Then I recommend everybody, those who have difficulty remembering what Jesus had done for you, write it down. Brothers. I tell the congregation to write it down and carry it in your pocket in your handbag.
01:46 So any issue going on, start reading that Jesus Christ did this. On this issue, Jesus Christ did make start remembering. Start telling your mind to remember and your heart to believe because it is true what happened.
01:58 Jesus did something for you to get you out of some difficulty. So the list is very important for those who cannot remember it automatically. In your mind and your eyes of your understanding is not there.
02:11 Eyes of your heart is not there. So you write it down initially. Particularly new Christians write it down and carry and keep adding this.
02:20 This can become a blog, you know, this can become a diary for you that your diary with God. Can you imagine what a good diary that is? Your diary with Jesus Christ of Nazareth. You’re writing every time something happens.
02:31 Write down problem, you happen. You write down, write down the problem. And then as soon as God settles that, you write down how he settles that.
02:38 What you have to do to remind yourself what we have to do is believe. If only you believe. God said you only believe without doubting, without doubting.
02:50 That’s the key issue. Believing without Doubting, and I’ve addressed this. Doubting is simply letting our mind believe what the doctor said, the lawyer said, the engineer said, the bank said, the boss said, the world said.
03:04 And then forcing our mind and our heart to believe what God said. Because if your mind and your heart jumps from what they said and to what God said, and it’s going two ways, it’s vacillating, it is fluctuating between disbelief and that belief, this belief, what the world said and God said, fluctuating this way, this way, that is doubting. @ one moment you believe what the God said.
03:26 One moment you believe what the doctor said. One moment you believe what your God said. Next moment you’re believing what the world said.
03:30 Next moment you’re believing what your mind said. This is doubting. Now, leaving that, I think.
03:38 Go and get it from the graceoflife.com in the page that’s called Power of Christ. Daily you have a whole list of segments, brothers and sisters, just let’s clear some scriptures first. Scriptures, Isaiah 14:24 the Lord of hosts has sworn.
03:58 Sworn means he took an oath, saying, surely as I have taught, so it shall come to pass. And as I have purposed, so it shall stand what he has taught. Our Father God Almighty God, our Father.
04:14 Can you imagine? Not just God, it may be God for all kind of people, but for us it is our Father. God. Our Father God has sworn.
04:22 Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass. Our Father God has said, as I have purposed, so it shall stand. This is Isaiah 14:24 in Isaiah 46:10 declaring the end of the beginning.
04:38 Isaiah 46:10. And from the ancient times, things that are not yet done, saying, my counsel shall stand. Our Father God has said, my counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure and his pleasure.
04:55 You see, he says, our Father God is saying, you know, in Isaiah 43:10, my counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure. What is pleasure? He loves us. He loves us and his pleasure will be.
05:11 Can you imagine? We can please him by loving him. We love him and that’s his pleasure. It pleases him and he will do all the things for us.
05:20 Why, that is pleasure. To give us all. It is his pleasure, brothers and sisters.
05:26 Oh, praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Daniel 4:35. Daniel 4:35.
05:32 All the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing. That means God is saying, look, look, look. All these people are created.
05:39 They may have their own plans, they may go against me and all, but they are actually nothing. He does according to His Will in the army of heaven. Isaiah Daniel 4:35, second verse, second line.
05:45 He does according to his will in the army of heaven. He, our Father God does according to his will. Finished.
06:02 He doesn’t do according to the will of the people trying to harm you. He doesn’t do according to the will of the world economy. He doesn’t do according to the will of the doctors and engineers.
06:15 Doctors who say, I’ve given up hope, there’s nothing else we can do for you. He doesn’t go according to their will. He goes according to his will.
06:22 Our Father God goes according to his will and according and his will is to save us. Ah, praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth and among the inhabitants of the earth. No one can restrain his hand.
06:37 He doesn’t go according to the will of the lawyer. He doesn’t go according to the will of your boss, who says, you are bad at this and that. But examine ourselves.
06:44 That we have to do. Examine ourselves. If we have done something wrong, tell the boss, I’m sorry.
06:50 Admit believing completely. Your Father God will take care of it. Because your Father God, Jesus Christ is also one in all, isn’t it? Because he is the only begotten Son.
06:55 Jesus Christ is the truth, I am the way, the truth and life. So we must first examine ourselves, also humble ourselves, and he gives grace. No one can restrain his hand or say to him, what have you done? That is what Daniel says now.
07:17 Acts 2:23, him being delivered by the determined purpose and foreknowledge of God, you have taken by lawless hands, have crucified and put to death. Now this is very important here. There are people going around telling that Jesus Christ failed as a human being and he died on the cross and all that, all that nonsense.
07:41 The Bible is very clear, Acts, he failed his sins. He came here and as soon as he allowed himself to get caught, and then they nailed him, they whipped him, they tore his beard face out and all that suffering. And then they nailed him to the cross and then he died.
07:55 That he actually as a human being, he failed these things. No such thing. He actually came with a purpose.
08:02 Him being delivered by the determined purpose and foreknowledge of God. This was the plan. Acts 2:23 is clear in many other places, even in psalms and all.
08:13 It’s already prediction, you know, it’s only prophesying that what will happen, Jesus Christ has decided to sacrifice himself. That was the only way he could save us. So now anybody telling you he failed as a human being and this and that, all lies.
08:29 Because it’s against scripture. If they say it’s their mind, it’s okay. I’m not going to argue with that.
08:35 But I have to go to what the Scripture has written. It’s written that determine purpose and foreknowledge. This was the purpose.
08:43 He must be captured, he must be tortured, he must be nailed to the cross. He must die on the cross, go into hell and then raised up the gate. That’s the purpose.
08:53 So he didn’t fail anything. He completed his purpose. He succeeded.
08:57 Actually. He succeeded in suffering for me. He succeeded in having his face torn out for me.
09:03 He. He succeeded in him being whipped for me. He succeeded in taking all my curses for me.
09:09 He succeeded. Jesus Christ succeeded for me. Jesus Christ succeeded in taking all the diseases, all the cancer, all the boil, all the poverty, all the wickedness in me.
09:09 He succeeded. Jesus Christ succeeded in taking my sins for me. Oh, praise Jesus Christ.
09:25 He succeeded every way. Oh, praise Jesus Christ. Brothers and sisters, Romans 8:28.
09:31 We know that all things work together for good, for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose. Now remember, we have to remember the Scriptures. And I’m continuing with this one is whatever he has sworn, Father God has sworn that whatever he thinks, whatever he proposed to stand, whatever he has taught it will come to pass.
09:51 Finished. His counsel shall stand. He will do his pleasure.
09:55 Finish. He no one can restrain his hands. Finished.
09:59 He does according to his will. Finished. Father God determined that Jesus must die on the cross, must come and be delivered by determined purpose and foreknowledge of God.
10:10 Foreknowledge before that is all planned already he did that. Finished. Succeeded.
10:15 Then in Romans 8:28, we know that all things work for the good of those who love God and are the called according to his purpose. Now these things you must begin to talk, talk to your heart, talk to your mind, meditate and begin to put a list against the list. You’ll see when things happen.
10:35 Good for you. After all the difficulties, God takes you out. There’s one verse, one Scripture says the children of God and the saints, the followers of Christ, the righteous, because righteous by his blood, we cannot be righteous by ourselves.
10:51 By his blood. And the righteous suffer many things, but he’ll deliver them all out of all. He’ll deliver us all from everything.
11:02 Lessons, some psalms. Now, Jesus Christ, the son of the living God and Father God, do not wake up every morning and say, okay, okay, what shall I do? These situations are doing this. And then being digest things he is not with.
11:16 And then, oh, these devils they did. Satan did that, his troops did this, the demons did that. So I have to now do this.
11:22 And he doesn’t do. He already knows what the flesh are going to do. Why he created Lucifer who rebelled and became Satan.
11:30 He created a. See, if he created our mind, if he created Lucifer’s mind, wouldn’t he know how the mind works? Of course he knows how Lucifer’s mind works. But you know what is happening over the many years.
11:46 There’s some theology going around that you see, God needs our help. He needs our cooperation. I must give my cooperation.
11:51 I must give my cooperation. I must give my help and I must use my free will to help Jesus, God Almighty, so that his plans can be put to motion. His plans can come to pass.
12:06 And people actually believe this? There’s a large number of people believing this. So they go around doing things, trying to make him come back in time. That means if we preach the gospel to the ends of the earth, he’ll then.
12:18 So we must do. He’s depending on us. The scripture is clear.
12:21 He’s not depending on us. He’s not depending on anybody. He will fulfill what he thinks, what he has thought.
12:29 It will come to pass what his purpose. He shall stand. So I must do this and God will come by my side.
12:38 Jesus Christ the Son, come by my side and and help me through. I will do first and then he come. And jointly we will do this.
12:47 Brothers and sisters, it’s false thinking, false belief. It’s antique, scriptural, it’s anti Christ. Now this thinking, this philosophy or this theology or whatever has come from the Garden of Eden, that time itself, where he said, if you only eat this fruit, the fruit that God said, do not touch it.
13:07 If you only eat this fruit, your eyes will be opened and you’ll become like God. So if the story is now in a very cloaked, in a shaded way, they are saying, the theology says that if I must help God, I must use my free will and help God. And then the purpose of God will come to pass.
13:24 That means I am God. If I am going to help God, I am in control of God. Brothers and sisters, get all this junk out of ourselves.
13:33 Wash it. Wash it by the blood of Jesus Christ. Wash all the demonic logic which started also in the garden of Ed with this false thing.
13:41 We must understand that he helps us all. He takes care of us today. Brothers and sisters, those of you having some challenges, remember the scriptures, but make our heart completely believe to know God is in control.
13:56 Our Father God is in control. Father. God is in Control Believe dear brothers and sisters and then take the scriptures and begin to read especially the relevant scriptures.
14:08 If not, go and look at the titles because the titles in the titles the title is short and I speak so many things. So go and get those things. Get the emails where the scriptures are written down and pasted for you colored and all critical areas are colored and all.
14:23 Take that and begin to meditate on the scriptures. Finally it’s the word of God will settle you. I merely explaining what happened what the word of God happened how in my life and all that.
14:37 But finally Jesus Christ, the son of the living God, the word of God will settle you. He loves you, he loves you, he loves you. And all things work together for good.
14:47 For those who love God. Now you have to love him. He loves you, but now you have to love him.
14:52 How to love him? He said, if you love me, walk in my commandments. If you love me, keep my commandments. That’s the sign of loving him, keeping his commandments.
15:00 And what is the commandments? We already explained the Hebrew translation. One of the translation is authoritative prescription is for us. So when you keep the commandment, one of the commandments is what examine ourselves.
15:14 What we sow, we will reap. So make sure we sow the right thing. And we were sowed the wrong thing which also happens to me immediately.
15:24 Oh, he loves you. He washes your sins away. My sins away with his own blood.
15:29 He he said confess and you will be forgiven. And he will take you and change you one more time. His angels will protect you.
15:37 So many things will do for you. So this belief, you must start working on it to make our heart believe God is in control. He doesn’t get a shock when something going wrong with you.
15:47 All things work for our good brothers and sisters today wonderful day. Even when we are facing issues, it’s still a wonderful day. Because we have Father God.
15:58 We have Jesus Christ with us. Who is Christ is in us in the spirit man, attached to our spirit man. And now he has to be molded and formed in our heart.
16:08 And the Holy Spirit is inside us. And nothing, nothing can separate us from the love of Christ. In Jesus name I pray.

AI-generated transcript below — please excuse any errors
00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, the power of Christ daily 18th of September. We are still in the work of God. Work of God is work of God.
00:10 Examine yourself. Chapter nine Self control. Chapter two Self control Part two.
00:20 The work of God, let’s remind ourselves, is believing in Jesus Christ. That’s it. Believing in Jesus Christ.
00:27 More we believe in the spiritual world. God considers it work. We better go by God’s definition because it is finally he created us, created the heavens and the earth.
00:37 Almighty God. 2. Examining Ourselves we have to examine ourselves to make sure that we are not counterfeit Christians.
00:44 We are not fake Christians and we don’t want to be fake Christians. We don’t want to be counterfeit Christians. We examine ourselves, test ourselves, prove ourselves and then we can be true Christians and pleasing to Christ and having a good life.
00:58 Having a good life. Now today we talk about self control, one of the flavours of Galatians 5, 22, 23 which is the fruit of the Spirit. Now in Titus 2:11, 13, I’m reading from the New Revised Standard Catholic edition.
01:21 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all, training us to renounce impiety and worldly passions and in the present age to live lives that are self controlled, upright and godly. 13 While we wait for the blessed hope and manifestation of the glory of our great God and Saviour, Jesus Christ. So what has appeared? Grace has appeared, bringing what? Salvation to all and training us to renounce worldly passions and impiety.
02:00 Now in Titus 2:11, 13 I’m now reading from the Amplified. For the remarkable and undeserved grace of God that brings salvation as appeared to all men. It teaches us to reject ungodliness, worldly, immoral desires.
02:20 Worldly desires are actually immoral desires. The earth belongs to Jesus Christ. He created it.
02:27 But the world, the system of governing the earth, the system of governing the earth, controlling the earth, things happening in the earth and all this is still worldly. And that ruler of the world right now is still Satan. Rule of the world is now still Satan.
02:43 That is why eventually you’ll bring the Antichrist and all that. But we are not going to get petrified and panicked about this. Our God says, just with his breath, Antichrist is destroyed.
02:56 Just with the breath finished. No, no issue here. Our Father God protects us, takes care of us, loves us.
03:04 Jesus Christ, the King of kings has overcome all and taken out the power of Satan and given his children power. So don’t concern yourself the devil in terms of oh, he will do something to Us. No, no, he cannot do anything.
03:18 If you stand in the name of Jesus Christ and you want to do the right thing, one, two, only willing. Willing to do the right thing. Willing to do what Jesus tells you.
03:28 You command any demonic force to go in the name of Jesus Christ and it will go. But if we do not want to follow Jesus Christ the way Jesus Christ has written down, if we want to follow Jesus Christ the way our mind tells us, our hearts tell us, our neighbors tell us, our another Christian brother or sister telling us without any proof in Scripture, without any proof from the Bible, then we won’t have power. The devil will overtake us now.
03:57 So here reject ungodliness, worldly, immoral desires and to live sensible, upright and godly lives. This is a purpose. Sensible, upright and godly life lies.
04:09 The purpose that reflects spiritual maturity is your life is my life is living as a purpose for Christ. Purpose that eternity will come. Purpose that our body one day will die and we still have to face the living God.
04:25 Purpose that what we do, what God has told us to do. Believe in the one whom he sent. Believing more in Jesus Christ.
04:31 Believing more in Jesus Christ. The purpose to believe more and more in Jesus Christ means the purpose is to obey him. Because he says, if you love me, keep my commandments, walk in my commandments.
04:46 That’s the purpose to love Jesus Christ. And the purpose to love Jesus Christ how? The purpose to keep his commandments. How? Because the commandments are a prescription.
04:56 The old Hebrew description says it’s a kind of prescription, authoritative prescription so that we can prescribe that our diseases will go. Our other diseases, our bad things in our life are considered diseases. And with the authoritative prescription, the diseases live a good life.
05:17 We’ll be healed. Healed in the spirit in this present age with a purpose 13 waiting and confidently expecting the fulfillment of our blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Saviour, Jesus Christ. As we get up this morning, or any morning, first take a moment and think of Jesus Christ.
05:42 He is love. God is love. So we think about love.
05:45 We think about others. We first of all, we begin to meditate on the scriptures God will bring. He will bring scriptures.
05:52 The Spirit of God will bring scriptures not related to just in the power of Christ. Daily that I am speaking, it will be from the past, once, maybe, maybe even from the future ones which have not spoken. He will bring the words of God to you.
06:03 He will bring things. Because you are meditating on the husband of your soul. You are waking up today.
06:11 The husband of your soul is with you you are complete, you are whole. You had a whole set of difficulties, challenges yesterday, but today you have mercies anew every morning. And then this starts with what? First Corinthians 8, 2.
06:27 If I think I know something I do not know as I ought to know as yet. This is crit, single brothers. Because our heart and mind is very wicked.
06:36 It begins to think after a while. It knows. It knows.
06:39 What does it know? Because whatever the world has taught us is only taught us a hidden thing. There was a movie called the Matrix. And then you go into the Matrix, you find there’s actually a different world and we’re actually believing one thing when actually there’s another thing.
06:56 Now this is similarly here. That is what the concept would have got from this actual world whereby there’s a spirit world that controls the actual world or the physical world. There’s a spirit world.
07:09 And we must focus on the spirit world. Because we have power in the name of Jesus Christ. Because we have power in the name of Jesus Christ, we must focus on the spirit world and God has given us and say, look at the things above, look at the things unseen.
07:26 What is it telling us? Look at the things unseen, look at the things unseen. That means why look at the spirit world? Now, of course, to look at the spirit world. We are looking at things like our character first, our conduct, our speech, our thoughts.
07:46 Now, because the heart will not change until we are renewed in the spirit of our mind, the spirit of our mind, our understanding. False belief has caused a lot of problems. Now back to this relative to self control.
08:05 Now self control means there’s a spirit that’s not a spirit of lack of self control or zero self control. There’s a spirit. This spirit is a wicked spirit.
08:17 It wants you to believe you can do whatever you want and get away. It wants you to believe and make you believe. Because it convinced our heart and mind that we must stand there and do this.
08:28 I can do it this way, I can do it that way. They do this, I will do that. I was like that.
08:34 If they do something that, okay, okay, they’re doing that there. I can do this way. Completely ignoring.
08:40 There is a spirit world and Satan came to steal, kill and destroy, as Jesus Christ has told us. And he said he came to give us more life and life more, more abundantly. And then he said before he left, can you imagine the last words, one of the last words he spoke before he left in Mark 16.
08:59 Those who believe, teach the good News. Talk about good news. The good news.
09:05 Salvation has come Jesus died on the cross and gave us power. And those who believe these signs will follow. They will cast out evil spirit in my name.
09:14 Now the connection is this. Those who believe in Jesus Christ will cast out evil spirit in his name. Now if we are not casting out evil spirit in his name, that means truly we are not believing enough to cast out.
09:31 And what evil spirit? As I told I’ve had segments earlier there, go and ask the moderators or go to the graceoflife.com There is a page called Power of Christ Daily and all the past recordings are there. Choose that brothers, because you can. And their topics are there.
09:47 They choose by topics now. So believe what? Believe that Jesus has overcome the world. And we will overcome the world.
09:59 And Jesus is a home for us. He is making. Jesus is coming back.
10:04 Jesus died on the cross and took my sins. And Jesus in his faith, he went down even to hell. He died, he suffered, you know, the heart broke physically.
10:15 The scientists now say that they studied how he was whipped and how he was hung on the cross in such a manner. Finally, this broke off the blood contained in the abdomen. Why physically his heart broke and all the blood collected in his abdomen.
10:34 And that is why when the soldier went and pierced him, blood and water flowed out. He died of a broken heart. Jesus Christ died of a broken heart for me and for you.
10:46 And he rose again. And he says, now come unto me and I shall give you rest. And he said, call on my name and I will answer thee.
10:55 But in my name you will cast out evil spirits from ourselves first. So examining ourselves all the time is a necessary thing so that we prove ourselves and be a part of Christ. Now, lack of self control has caused a lot of problems.
11:09 As I said, marriages are broken, relationships are broken, jobs are lost, money is lost. Without self control, you go buy things, buy things because your neighbor God or your friend God or whatever, you don’t afford it. You cannot afford it.
11:24 You can’t maxing up your credit cards. And finally people are being bankrupted. All that is going on because lack of self control.
11:33 Now self control on the other hand is a wonderful thing. It’s a wonderful thing that God is saying you have self control and you live reject. You can reject ungodliness and worldly immoral passions and desires, you can reject because in the name now this I think a lot of religions will tell you, like including Christian religion tell you, you know, be godly, don’t have worldly desires and all that, but our heart won’t do.
12:05 So in the name of Jesus, Christ, I command my heart and mind to reject worldly desires, to reject lack of self control in the name of Jesus Christ and to have godliness and to love Jesus Christ and to fulfill the commandments and to take his prescription in the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to believe more and more in Jesus Christ, to love more and more. And I will love all. Because if I love all, I am a son of the most High God.
12:35 It’s so easy. God has given us a prescription to be son of the most High God. You just love your enemy.
12:43 So if you have any enemies, you must purpose in your heart in the name of Jesus Christ. And the mind must be renewed and say, they are captives, Lord, they are captives. The ruler of the world, Satan is confused all of us.
12:56 But thank you Lord for giving me grace and mercy and that I am in you. It is only by your mercy that you have brought me in. Now you try this brothers and sisters.
13:09 You meditate on this self control everything. Before you do something, before you speak, there must be moments of silence. Your thinking.
13:18 You’re thinking before you speak. Thinking what? Thinking what Jesus wants you to say. Now Jesus Christ himself, he says, father, do not let this cup pass through my lips.
13:35 Then he then quickly said again, but let your will be done, not mine. That means he knows he’s going to suffer so much. He’s asking father, can this cup, can this sacrifice not be done this way? Can I be spared of this? All this weeping and tearing of flesh and tearing of our beard and hanging there and nailed to the cross and ridiculed and put to shame and carry all the sins of mankind.
14:03 And all the demonic forces would come and carry all their curses, all their boils, all their diseases, all their leprosy, all the tuberculosis, all cancer. I carry all that into my body. Can this be done another way? Can I escape from this? Then he said, but let your will be done, not mine.
14:25 That is self control. That is self control. Self control is wanting God’s way when your flesh, your mind, your heart, your friend, your brother, your neighbor, whoever is telling all that do, do something.
14:40 The boss, the company, your job, all the dictating that you must do something. And then you know that is not what Jesus Christ wants you to do. Because you must be searching scriptures or get godly counsel.
14:54 Somebody will counsel you. Get to the grace of life. Somebody will counsel you.
14:58 It may be even me. But everybody knows that the people who are there in the grace of life, they all have suffered, they’ve come out of it. They are serving the Lord.
15:06 There are pastors, there are servants. They will, oh, they will stop what they’re doing. They will begin.
15:11 They begin to deal with this. They will contact among each other. They’ll talk, they’ll contact me and then say how to help this person, how to help this brother, how to help this sister.
15:20 Because love one another as I have loved you. That’s the second highest commandment. First highest commandment is love God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength, and love one another as I have loved you.
15:23 That’s the second highest commandment for believers. Third highest commandment is love your neighbor as yourself. And then we will have great life.
15:42 And why they will stop and do this? Because they have self control. Self control to obey what God has said. Love one another as I have loved you.
15:51 Jesus said, how did he deliver us? He gave up everything for us. So we must be willing to give up our time, our energy and all that, not go and whip ourselves and nailed us back on the cross. No, we are already being when we accepted Christ.
16:05 We have already been crucified in Christ. We already been when we are in Jesus Christ. Brothers and sisters, wonderful day.

00:01 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters. Power of Christ Daily 17th of September 2015 still work of God. What is work of God? Believing the one whom he sent.
00:13 Examine yourself. Recording eight Self control. This is the final part of the Fruit of the Spirit Self control.
00:24 This is absolutely critical, brothers and sisters. Self control. A lot of lives have been wasted.
00:32 Lives have been wasted, lives stolen. Lives are lost because of no self control. The self control has not been taught, not been reminded, not been meditated upon regularly by even Christians.
00:51 Lack of self control is really the main cause of serious destruction. Of course we know the spirit world as a Satan. He wants you to have no self control.
01:07 The demonic world does not want you to have no self control. You must understand this. There are demons who are watching us and trying to tempt us to fall into sin.
01:21 Now yesterday we were dealing with chastisement from God. And what a wonderful thing. Know that our God doesn’t put illness on us and we shouldn’t be flogging ourselves and hurting ourselves and all thinking we are doing anything good for God.
01:37 He doesn’t want us to hurt ourselves. He wants us to do the right thing. He wants us to be salt and light.
01:38 He wants us to show his glory to the world by being humble, by helping others, loving all. That’s the way. And this chastisement, of course you must understand God will use people also to rebuke you and correct you.
02:01 Because there are pastors, there are servants, there are disciples like you. There are saints. All of us are saints because we believe in Jesus Christ to save us.
02:13 We believe Jesus Christ saved us. He is the Son of God. He is.
02:16 He is not just any ordinary person. Son of God and died and rose again, took our sins and all that. And therefore we are saints.
02:24 Now we are supposed to correct each other. When you see another saint doing something or going towards some problem, you have to counsel and say, brother sister, this is going to harm us. Don’t do this now.
02:37 Rebuke and correction are necessary. When somebody is doing something wrong and going to destroy himself, it is necessary to rebuke. So God uses others.
02:47 It could be your neighbor, who’s not even a believer, who’s getting angry with you. Then you better start thinking. For instance, he may be thinking that you have been parking the car in a manner that he doesn’t like.
03:03 Or the woman, the neighbor who’s not a believer is unhappy the way you’re cooking at the back and some smell of your cooking going into her house. So the person gets upset. Now you better immediately Examine and say, am I causing this? Can I then if I do not change, do not settle this.
03:27 Do not humble myself. Will they listen about Jesus Christ another day? You have lost your right to speak. There’s a right to speak.
03:37 When you speak, people must listen. They must be wanting to hear you. But you’re not going to do this if you do not reach out, reach out loving even when they do not understand.
03:52 Do you think of Jesus on the cross? They forgive them, Father. They know not what they do. Whenever people doing things to you, sorry brothers about this.
04:01 Whenever princes are doing to you, accusing unfairly even maybe that’s not the issue. You must not use your right to speak. Humble yourself.
04:12 And you know that Jesus Christ, the husband of your soul will do something. But we do not lose our right to speak because we will then bring Jesus to this person. This person is a captive suffering, completely gone, angry now for something else maybe now showing on you.
04:32 So you instead of responding. That’s self control. We’ll come to that.
04:36 You instead of saying, forgive them, Father. They don’t know what they do. They do not know what they do.
04:41 They know not what they do. I was like that, Lord. Now make me reach out, make me love this person.
04:47 Because I will love even my enemies so that I am the son of the Most High God. You know why you will love your enemy? Why? I have loved my enemies for now 20 years now. I don’t have enemies now that time when I first came to the Lord full of enemies because I have not done them things to them.
05:03 But there are others who are doing things without me having done anything. Without me having done anything. They are doing things.
05:09 I was a real angry. But when I knew this to be son of the Most High God, I must love them. So how do we do that? It’s impossible to do by yourself in your natural self.
05:21 I did that in the name of Jesus Christ commanding my heart and mind to love this one by one. I think of this person. I think of what they are doing.
05:30 I’ll be thinking. I’ll be looking at what they’re doing in the mind of my. In the eyes of my mind and in the eyes of my heart.
05:36 I’ll be thinking and feeling this, what they are doing. And then I purpose it in my heart. I will still love this person, Lord.
05:44 Because you, my king and Lord and king, my master, my Savior, the lover of my soul wants me to love him so that I can be your son of the Most High God. So I will love. So I love these enemies even that time for my own sake, for my own sake, so that I am a son of the most high God.
06:08 So remember this your neighbor do some rubbish. You will love them for your own sake that you become the son of the most high God. Don’t you want to be the son of the most high God? The Bible is clear.
06:23 Love your enemies to be the Son and you’ll be sons of the most high God. That’s it. And how can we love our enemies? Because we have a protector and immensely powerful unlimited power.
06:38 He is the one who protect us. So we don’t have to bother about this surrender to Christ, but love them and tomorrow they’ll come to you. One day when they’re in trouble or you will reach out and begin to bring Jesus to them.
06:52 One soul is worth more than the whole world for Christ. That’s why Christ had man said, what does it profit a man to get the whole world and lose his own soul? What does it profit me or you to get the whole world and lose our own soul? So what? God is equating our value, each soul value against the whole world. So the soul is worth more than the whole world.
07:17 So we reach out. Is it worth it? Because they are unhappy with your chilli smell or whatever blachan smell or whatever you are doing that going across there. Don’t you want to adjust your cookery in such a manner cooking in such a manner that you don’t offend them? Because that soul you brought to Christ later you have a gift.
07:41 You have a reward for eternity counted and can never take from you. You better start thinking like this now. Today we are dealing with self control.
07:50 Now self control of course is the last part of the spirit. Flavor of the spirit, fruit of the Spirit. First part is love.
08:00 Now Proverbs 29:20 says, do you see a man hasty in his words? That is someone who speaks without thinking, you know, straight away anything straight away. Straight away there is more hope for a fool than for him. There is more hope for a fool than for him.
08:23 This particularly people may think it is people outside. No, no, it’s just many times I find sisters who are wives who have not trained their tongue and trained their heart or whatever they end up doing the and getting themselves such a terrible mess. Some of them have been bitten because of this, you know, and outside world.
08:46 Also people should look around. Somebody slaps you suddenly in the car, somebody just talks away or points something. Talking hasty in words is not just speaking hand gestures and body language.
09:00 All that. Oh, you are angry with one Fellow who just overtook you, you are showing some hand sign. Oh, some sign like what are you doing? Or whatever that’s hasty in action.
09:11 Now suppose the brothers block the car and come down and take a crowbar and wag you. Therefore he said, there’s more for a fool than for him who is saying this. No, God is saying this.
09:20 Our Father, our Father who loves us is telling you son, don’t do this because there’s more hope for a fool than for this person. So our Father is telling, don’t be hasty in your words. Don’t be quick to so simply blah blah, blah.
09:34 Now Proverbs 14:17 says, A quick tempered man acts foolishly. That means a man quick to anger acts foolish, foolishly. Now he didn’t say sometimes, all the time.
09:47 I am talking to brothers and sisters here who’s quick tempered. That means God says you act foolishly all the time. A quick tempered man acts foolishly.
09:56 A quick tempered man means the temper didn’t blow up. You’re a quick tempered man. You’re a quick tempered man, but didn’t blow up just now.
10:06 But you’re a quick tempered man again. Suddenly come you act foolishly all the time. You act foolish.
10:13 Therefore if you have some foolish things you are doing and somebody is correcting you, you better understand it’s now based on the thing. Because you have allowed the spirit of quick temperedness to sit in you when you’re given all power of heaven and earth, and which was bought by a tremendously terrible, painful price of the Son of the living God who gave you blood of Jesus Christ, who gave you his name, who gave you power to trample on snakes and scorpions. And by no means anything can help, can hurt you.
10:42 By any means nothing can hurt you. That’s in Luke 10:19, Luke 10:1 019. And yet you are quick tempered.
10:51 You are blaspheming the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. You’re saying his blood is nothing. That’s what you’re saying without you saying it.
10:59 You actually your conduct says this. I cannot become. I am always quick tempered but I cannot get rid of it.
11:05 Then you are saying the blood of Jesus Christ is nothing. You are blaspheming the name. You are stepping on the blood of Jesus Christ.
11:12 You are trampling on the blood of Jesus Christ. This is not on brother and sister. So I am talking to every quick tempered person here.
11:19 Stop it for your own sake. Because what the Bible says, a quick tempered man acts foolishly and a man of wicked schemes is hated. A Fellow is always scheming.
11:33 But is either a woman or man always scheming? Scheming is always hated finally. Always scheming to do rubbish is hated finally. So leave them alone.
11:42 But now I am talking to a quick tempered man and acts foolishly and without self control. Proverbs 14:17 says in Amplified. A quick tempered man acts foolishly and without self control.
11:55 Without self control you’ll destroy your own life. You’ll destroy things around you. Lack of self control will begin to the spirit of lack of self control.
12:06 Oh, it’s a very destructive thing. So brother sister, get rid of your quick temper. No such thing.
12:12 A child of God has no quick temper. A child of God is having quick temper. Means is actually not using the power of Jesus Christ to overcome this.
12:23 Now another one. 29:11, Proverbs 29:11. Now remember, the Old Testament tells us what to do, what not to do and all that.
12:31 The New Testament empowers us to do it. That’s a big difference. The Old Testament tells you what to do and all.
12:37 Yes, but cannot do. That’s why Jesus came. The Old Testament doesn’t give you power to do.
12:43 That’s why God calls it the ministry of death. The New Testament comes and gives a ministry of life whereby you can use the name of Jesus Christ. The blood of Jesus Christ.
12:54 You keep looking at the word of God. Now, the quick tempered man, whoever has quick temper, you look at the word of God, Proverbs 14:17. All the time in the eyes of your mind.
13:04 In the eye of your mind, you’re looking at it. In the eyes of your heart, you’re thinking about it. You’re acting on it.
13:09 You’re thinking I’m quick tempered. No, I’ll be slow to speak, quick to hear. I am full of self control.
13:16 I am full of self control. And then you begin to meditate. This is destroying me.
13:23 It has destroyed a lot of me. No more. I am a child of God.
13:26 I am a saint. I am a disciple of Christ. I have power to trample on snakes and scorpions, which means evil things.
13:35 I trample on every spirit of quick temperedness. Wicked spirit of quick temperedness. Get out of me.
13:40 In the name of Jesus Christ, you begin to meditate on this. Do on and on it will go. Now here Proverbs 29:11 says, A fool vents all his feelings.
13:49 Vents means all his feelings. All coming out, all angry, all upset. But a wise man holds them back.
13:57 Uses self control and holds it back. A wise man holds back his feelings because they are not going to act by feelings. A wise man holds back the feelings using the power of Jesus Christ, the name of Jesus Christ, the blood of Jesus Christ.
14:12 And holds back the feeling using the word of God to keep on meditating on it as if in a mirror. As in a mirror you keep looking at the word all the time. In your eye, in the mind of your mind, meditating.
14:23 Renewing your mind, Renewing your mind. The heart will change once the heart changes the words. The mouth of the world speaks so quickly.
14:30 Because renewing the spirit of your mind will change your heart. And what is abundant in their heart will be love. Now you replace love.
14:36 I will love them. I will love them. Anyone will say anything.
14:39 Give me. Because remember you love the enemy, your son of the most high God. So why quick temper? You don’t love them.
14:48 Why are you quick tempered? You don’t love them, that’s all. And a child of God is love. Your whole body, every cell is infused with love.
14:57 Because God is love. If you have God inside which you have but examine yourself and not be a fake Christian. God says you are a fake Christian.
15:06 Anybody who wants to follow Jesus Christ cannot do fake things. So if you’re actually following Jesus Christ, you want Jesus Christ. Every cell in your body is infused with the love of God which is not coming out.
15:18 So every cell has love frequency. So why a quick tempered. Remember you don’t love them.
15:24 Why a fool went to all his feelings. Oh, you don’t love yourself. Even because you went to all your feelings, you harm yourself.
15:32 So brothers and sisters today, total self control. Total self control. This is what you should aim for in every aspect.
15:40 Now put a list of all the things where you have lost your self control. List all the things. Now it’s not just, you know, oh I did not, I just.
15:48 No self control. I ate additional chocolate today. That is rubbish.
15:53 That is on your own matter. This is self control. When you’re dealing with people, when you’re dealing the outside, that one you can see, you put on.
16:00 Eat chocolate, you become fat. Too much chocolate, too fat. But that one you cannot see.
16:04 That one you are harming yourself, harming others. That one you cannot see. That is where you are going to focus today.
16:11 Self control when dealing with everybody outside in your environment. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray Amen.
