00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 14 March 2016 Listen to God’s voice. Listen to God’s voice. Brothers and sisters.
00:12 When I was first arrested by Christ, thank Jesus Christ for His mercy. When I first came to the Lord and I felt peace, peace, peace, peace. I never knew could exist.
00:25 And for a long time there was only chaos in my soul. Anger, hatred, bitterness, violence, lies, deceit, oh, so many sins. But mercy of Jesus Christ and dying, ill health, all kinds of things.
00:44 And yet Jesus come unto me and I shall give you rest. I didn’t realize at the time that people were telling I heard God. I heard God.
00:55 After that, no. So I also want to hear God. I also want to hear God.
00:58 I’m sure you listening to this or listening to others saying they heard God, you also want to hear God. You want to hear Father God, because this is a necessary thing. But the reasons why you want to hear God may be different from people to people or person to person.
01:16 And that’s a very important thing. The intention, why you want to hear God and what you want to do when you hear God. These are critical issues.
01:24 For instance, so they will say, I heard God. God told me this, God told me that, and all that. I dare not open my mouth and tell that because I do not even know what hearing God is.
01:36 And how do we hear God? There are times people have genuinely, I could sense they are genuine when they said they actually heard God. An audible voice they said they heard. I believe them because they are sincere people now, but also there is a danger.
01:52 Later on I came to realize there is a danger. You can also hear the voice of Satan and think it’s the voice of God. Voice of Satan and think it’s the voice of God.
02:01 I’ll give you examples as we go along. But first, what is the voice of God? Now? I then recollected that when I was standing there, when the pastor said, tell me to tell the sinner’s prayers. And he led me through the sinner’s prayers.
02:18 That is, I’m a sinner and that I forgive all those who. Who have offended me or sinned against me. I didn’t say because in my heart I know I have not forgiven.
02:28 I am unable to forgive. There are people who are doing such great damage to me, they are trying to kill me off using magic of bomos or witchcraft and shamanism and evil spirits and all that. And so then I realized, hey.
02:45 So I said, I can’t say this prayer that I Have forgiven everybody. Then the pastor said, I do not know what. First you must say it.
02:52 That’s what everybody says. I said, that’s why I know in my heart I’m not forgiven my heart. I feel so much anger I can’t say it.
02:59 And now you’re telling me to tell this prayer to Jesus Christ. And obviously I can’t say it because I know now Jesus is the truth. And he knows.
03:09 He can see inside me. He can know what I’m doing. I don’t want to lie anymore.
03:14 And so he knows. So why am I telling lies to him? I don’t want. I’m afraid.
03:18 I need his help. I need him to settle me. I need him to heal me.
03:21 But so if I tell some lies, I don’t know whether I’ll be even Jesus. Respond. Then the pastor said, I don’t know what to do with you, brother.
03:30 You pray directly to Christ. So I’m standing there with my hands lifted, and of course I do not know what to say. Then I sensed it in my spirit, in something in my heart.
03:43 I sense it. Tell the truth. He is Jesus.
03:46 So I told Lord Jesus Christ I am a sinner. I agree I need your help. I need you to heal me.
03:55 But I also know that if I do not forgive, you cannot forgive me. I also know that. But I want to forgive.
04:03 But I am unable to forgive the anger and the bitterness. And of course, there was no fear of forgiving. Because the fear of forgiving is by forgive those people already sending demons on me.
04:14 They’ll send a million demons and finish me and my family off. So that is also a fear. So because of all that, I told her truth to Christ.
04:25 And then when I told that, my body started swaying from left to right, right to left, went on swaying to and fro. Then I felt my legs are being. My feet are being lifted from the ground.
04:38 Then I dropped my hands. My hands were raised up. I dropped my hands.
04:42 And then the pastor quickly said, raise your hands and worship the Lord. Bless the Lord. So I raised my hands.
04:47 When I raised my hands, my feet are. I can sense it being lifted from the ground. So I quickly put my hands back because I am frightened.
04:56 But later on, when I was witnessing to my children and my family and all my children, I would joke with them every time. You know, if I knew it was Jesus time and I really knew that this is good, I would have just floated around for a while or something. I would have floated around for a while.
05:11 Brothers and sisters, remember to always go to Jesus Christ. With the truth. The truth you don’t write seldom prayer, which is not even truthful.
05:21 He knows. He knows all. He knows everything.
05:24 And so does the devil. He doesn’t know everything, but he knows that you are lying. The devil knows you are lying.
05:30 And the devil will then claim possession over you, claim a right over you, because you are a liar. If I’m lying, the devil will claim possession of right over me because I’m lying. And all liars belong to the devil.
05:43 Jesus says so all liars, all sinners belong to the devil. So we don’t want to do this. So now do not lie even in prayer.
05:53 Do not simply say as you wish, tell the truth. If you’re unable to do, tell Jesus Christ I’m unable to do, ask for mercy. And he’s a merciful, loving God.
06:04 He’s a husband of your soul. He will do something for you. He will not forsake you because you told the truth.
06:10 When you begin to tell the truth, Lord, this is what I am. I’m unable to do this. I know your law says this, your command says this, but I’m able to do, make me do Holy Spirit in Jesus Christ’s name, and you will begin to see everything being done.
06:24 Now then I forgot about that. So when I. Then I’m casting out the evil spirit, you know, but same time casting out, even free from people. But same time people say I heard this, I am very confused whether I actually hear God or not.
06:38 But then I started searching, researching that time, all, you know, there was no Internet really. So I go to buy book after book, hearing God, listening, prayer and all that. Finally one thing dawned on me.
06:51 There is an impression in your soul, in your heart. A small still voice. The Bible will say small still voice is a voice that’s not dynamic.
07:01 Now what you’re hearing from me is a dynamic voice. It’s moving from word to word I’m speaking. There will be impression.
07:08 It’s not moving. It’s an impression on your heart, something that you must do, something you shouldn’t do. Now when you begin to get the impression, obey, obey.
07:19 But now later on I came to ministering. There’s one woman telling me that she must divorce her husband because God told her so and husband was not involved with another in adultery or something. He was not involved in all that.
07:35 So she simply said, no, I must divorce. God said. So I talked to him, I heard God.
07:42 Can you imagine now what happens so when you’re hearing God, Here, the title. Listen to God’s voice. When you’re hearing God.
07:51 How do we determine this? How do we know whether it’s God or our heart is talking Anytime our heart is talking to us. And then if you oh, I heard God, I heard God. If you become gung ho, you become prideful, you heard God, then what will happen? Then your heart will speak to you, the devil will speak to your heart, resonate with your heart.
08:11 And then the heart will frequency, have the same frequency, heart will begin to talk the same nonsense. And then you will begin to think God is speaking to you because you are prideful. Not wanting to examine yourself, not wanting to examine yourself against the word of God to whether the thoughts and the so called inner voice is from God or from Satan or your own heart.
08:33 This is exactly the problem with a lot of people. Let go of Eisenhower and then few years down the road their lives will be in a mess. Even in their own lives.
08:42 And they say, I heard God, I heard God. You’ll find them full of pride, pride, arrogance and so lost, so confused. And then they’re running from place to place looking for signs and wonders.
08:55 Every time somebody causes a rally or some campaign coming, they will run there, they’ll run to this another preacher. Another preacher. That’s what the Bible says, says heaping upon themselves spiritual teachers after teachers for itching years.
09:10 Their years are itching. So they heaping to themselves, loading upon themselves teacher upon teacher to be able to get what they feel good. So the teacher teaches you something that is correcting you, rebuking you.
09:26 You won’t like the teacher. But if the teacher is teaching you something you like, you feel. So they go from place to place looking for signs and wonders.
09:33 Jesus already said there are no more signs and wonders for you. Don’t look for signs, there are no more signs for you there only the sign of Jonah. That is three days in the belly of a whale and he comes out suddenly.
09:45 Jesus goes down, dies. Three days in hell comes out. That’s all the sign.
09:49 He said no more signs, you wicked generation. Wicked generation. Adultless generation.
09:58 Why adultless generation is instead of being married to Christ, our soul is married to Christ. We want our soul to be married to the world and to science and people teaching this way and that way. Look for the truth now.
10:12 One clear scripture always is this now. Matthew 11:15. Matthew 11:15.
10:19 I’m reading for amplified. He who has ears to hear, let him hear. And heed my words.
10:26 Heed my words. He who has ears to hear, let him hear. And heed my words means obey.
10:33 Do, do my words Matthew 13:43 Then the righteous will shine forth, radiating the new life, like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear. Heed my words.
10:50 This heed my words is all over the place. But the righteous who are righteous, those who seek the will of God, it’s bracket there. Amplify the given a bracket.
10:58 Then the righteous, that is those who seek the will of God, will shine forth. So you must seek the will of God, not your own will, what your heart wants. And when you want your own will, what your heart wants.
11:11 The devil will catch you, because he will tempt you, because your heart is now our hearts are treacherously wicked, and it wants what it wants now. So how do we now determine for a new Christian? How do you determine whether you are hearing God or some hearing your heart or hearing some demons or whatever familiar spirits will be speaking to you also? John 14:26. John 14:26.
11:38 I am reading from the King James Version. But the comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things and bring all things to your remembrance whatsoever I have said unto you. Now read this very carefully.
11:56 Meditate upon this. This is a great and important key to hearing God, to knowing that you are not misled and gone into destruction. And this the truth.
12:07 But the comforter, which is the Holy Spirit. Who is the Holy Spirit? He is the comforter also. He got many names.
12:13 The spirit of truth. Dear comforted comforters from the Father, whom the Father will send in my name. He shall teach you all things.
12:23 Who will teach you all things? The Holy Spirit. And bring all things to your remembrance whatsoever I have said unto you. Simply put, the Holy Spirit will bring all things to memory what I have spoken unto you.
12:38 Who has spoken unto us? Jesus Christ. Because in the book of John, Jesus Christ is saying, the Holy Spirit, who is a comforter, he will teach you all things and bring all things to memory whatsoever I have said unto you, whatsoever I have spoken unto you. So now this is a very important key.
12:56 So what will the Holy Spirit bring to memory? All things that Jesus Christ has spoken unto us. What is spoken unto us? We are remembering the 50 Commandments, isn’t it? The commandments of Jesus Christ. So when you hear a still voice, you got an impression that God is telling you something.
13:15 You must measure it against the word of God. Because the word of God is Jesus Christ. And whatever Jesus Christ has spoken, whatever you are hearing, they must be in line.
13:27 They must be in line. They must tally Whatever you’re feeling, as God is saying to you, if it’s not in line with the word of God, you are hearing from the devil and you are hearing from your own heart, your own wicked heart, you will not follow. You will not follow.
13:43 Because Jesus Christ said, my sheep hear my voice. And I know them, and they know me. The sheep know his voice.
13:53 The sheep hear my voice. They know my voice. They know his voice.
13:59 So the commandments. If you do not know the commandments of Christ, will you really know his voice? No. That is why it is important that you begin to learn the commandments of Jesus every day listening to it and meditate on these things.
14:14 There are now 290 recordings, so many. And every recording that the Scriptures are quoted to prove what I am telling is from Jesus Christ. I’m not telling my own thing.
14:27 Now, whatever examples I’ve given you, you take it or don’t take it. That’s not important. But whatever Scripture I giving you, please take it, memorize it, meditate upon it, examine your life against it.
14:40 Brothers and sisters, this is critical. Now I’m going to read the same verse, John 14:26, from the Amplified. But the helper, trumpeter, advocate, intercessor, counselor, strengthener and standby.
14:55 That’s how the Holy Spirit was defined, by various words that came from Greek and Hebrews. And the Amplified taken it and explained so many things because there is no one word in Hebrew and Greek. As I told you, the Asian languages have several meanings, very shades of meaning, very important.
15:17 Comforter, advocate. Advocate means he advocates for you, he defends you, intercessor, intercedes for you, counselor, counsels you, strengthen and strengthens you. And he stands by to do for you whatever Jesus once done.
15:31 That is for the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name in my place, to represent me and act on my behalf. Act on whose behalf? Jesus behalf. He will teach you all things and will bring you to remember everything that I’ve told you.
15:44 You need to know the Word of God, brothers and sisters. You need to meditate on the Word of God, which Jesus Christ. So until you begin to study the Word of God, until when you’re listening to the morning segments, you just listen, like, not bothered.
15:59 Like, you know, okay, I let it go. You know, I have to listen. You know, I’m doing my chores for Christ.
16:04 I am doing no onward or something. I take important. I must rush for this.
16:08 I must quickly make breakfast. Yes, you do all that while you’re listening. By the end two, three times, you can listen to the word of God.
16:15 At least take the emails and read the scriptures and mark it in your Bible. And read the Bible scriptures every day. Or maybe at the back of the Bible, you’re reading this title, these are the scriptures.
16:27 And you’re meditating on the scriptures. Because as you begin to meditate on the scriptures, God will speak to you through the scriptures. Through the scriptures, he speaks to you.
16:37 And you will listen to God’s voice. The impression. You will know this is wrong, this is right.
16:43 Don’t do this. Go this way. And your life will become beautiful.
16:47 Your life will become good. Your life will have peace. Under no circumstances.
16:52 Everything going wrong. So you will be held still. And you know your God is with you.
16:56 You know Jesus Christ is with you. In Jesus name, I pray today for you. Amen.
17:01 That you’ll follow Jesus Christ and his word. Amen.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily, 13 March 2016, a Sunday titled Feed my sheep and teach Christians to obey. Feed my sheep and teach Christians to Obey. Brothers and sisters, Feed my sheep is in John 21:15 16.
00:20 Again, let’s understand this. Let’s examine ourselves daily. Yesterday we dealt with watch and pray, watch and pray.
00:28 Watch and pray that we do not fall into temptation. Do not go into temptation. Therefore, the watch and pray is critical.
00:33 Examine. Examine what your heart is desiring, whether it is in line with the word of God. This is where our problem is.
00:40 Of course, we have an enemy. Your enemy, the devil walks about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour or swallow. That is Jesus Christ himself told us now, the husband of our child telling us, watch your enemy.
00:57 Be vigilant. Do not give him a foothold. Your enemy is Satan.
01:01 Now, this is hidden. Now, therefore, now we must watch that. Because without that, the devil will come and tempt our heart.
01:10 Our heart already is wicked and it will be drawn by the heart desire. The devil will come. Temptation.
01:16 Now, temptation can’t come until we are drawn by our own heart desire. Our heart desire must now be changed by renewing in the spirit of our minds, by renewing the spirit of minds with the word of God so that our heart will change in line with God’s heart, what God wants us to want and feel. Brothers, that’s a trick.
01:38 That’s the issue. Renewing the spirit of our mind by looking at the word of God and meditating on the word of God. And then the heart will change.
01:46 And then that is repentance. Repentance is having a new way of thinking, the way that Jesus wants us to think, the way Father God wants us to think. And that has to be renewed in the spirit of your mind.
01:57 Jesus says. And now when we do that, and let’s do that, we have to examine ourselves and watch the word of God. Watch the word of God now.
02:06 Next thing. Now, today we’re dealing with feed my sheep. He says, these are part of the fifty commandments of Jesus Christ.
02:13 We may or may not complete all, but we have done a lot. And even if this, we just do some of these, our hearts will change, our minds will change, our heart will. We will become the children of God and we’ll be pleasing to Jesus Christ.
02:26 We will be pleasing and the Holy Spirit will take over and bring you to glory. To glory. It is not a question of doing some of the religious activities.
02:31 It is not going to settle you you have to get into the spirit, because we are spirit being. Father, God is spirit and worship him in spirit and in truth. The devil is a spirit being.
02:46 Now we have to battle in the spirit. Brothers and sisters, in John 21:15. So when they had finished breakfast, now Jesus remember, Jesus made breakfast for them.
02:59 Can you imagine? Jesus said to Simon, Simon, son of John or son of John. They may say, son of John, do you love me more than these others do? With total commitment and devotion. They also love.
03:17 Then he saying, the others love me also. But do you love me more than this? That is what Jesus asking Peter, Simon. At the time, his name was Simon, Simon Peter, do you love me more than this? More than all these others who love me? He said, yes, Lord, you know that I love you.
03:38 With a deep personal affection. As for a close friend, that’s the bracket. The explanation in amplified.
03:44 Jesus said to him, feed my sheep. So I’ll read this without the explanation. Simon, son of Jonah, do you love me more than this? Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.
03:56 Now he’s humble now. He didn’t say, I love you more than this. He didn’t say, I love you more than the others.
04:02 He said, lord, you know that I love you. He’s humble already. Why? Remember before the cock crows thrice, before the cock crows, he denied him three times.
04:11 And that time he came out of pride. Earlier he said, no, I will not deny you. And this and that.
04:17 Jesus said, look here, before the cockroach, you will deny me three times. And it happened. And it broke him.
04:21 It broke Peter. When he denied him three times, Jesus looked at him. And he looked at Jesus at that time, and it broke him.
04:31 It broke his heart. And then he became humble. That’s why when Jesus said, do you love me more than this? His answer, yes, Lord, you know that I love you.
04:40 His answer didn’t say, I love you more than this. Yes, Lord, I love you more than this. No, he’s humble.
04:45 Now. Humbleness is a great issue. We must be humble in our thinking, humble way.
04:51 Humbleness of the mind. We have to become humble in the mind. First, the mind has to make our minds humble.
04:58 Our thinking has to be humble. Otherwise it’s false humility. Hello, brother.
05:03 Good morning, brother. How are you, brother? Not bothering anything. It’s just cliches.
05:08 It’s just a list of words coming out, you know, oh, God will bless you. Jesus bless you, brother. Jesus bless you, sister.
05:16 All these cliches. It has to start with the humbleness of the mind. It has to start in the mind.
05:23 Be renewed in the spirit of your mind. That is why there are books written on the battlefields in the mind. Because the devil goes for the mind first.
05:31 When the devil can catch your way of thinking. He caught you. How do I know this? It is of course, God says, be renewed in the spirit of your mind.
05:39 That’s how you know that. But I now know in the experience, because it happened to me before. My mind was caught by the world and the thinking and the science and everything else, and the physics and the chemistry and the nuclear science or whatever.
05:51 And the thinking. Thinking more than others. What a pride.
05:56 Pride, Pride. That was what My mind was full of it. When my mind was full of it, my heart also will become pride.
06:03 You won’t know it. So the humbleness in the mind is critical. Be renewed in the spirit of your mind.
06:10 That’s why there is a fantastic statement here. Jesus asked him, simon, Simon, son of Jonah, do you love me more than this? He said to him, yes, Lord, you know that I love you. What a thing.
06:22 The man, the apostle now has become humble. He is still a disciple there. Has become humble.
06:30 He was different before. While he was a disciple, he also had a lot of pride. But now he is humbled.
06:38 The humbleness comes when we fell into sin and we returned. When we fall into sin and run away, humbleness won’t come. That’s pride.
06:47 When you run away. When you fall into sin and you don’t want to go to Jesus, you just run away. Oh, I don’t know.
06:52 And then deny and don’t know. Deny. By denying that you don’t sin, you’re actually denying Christ.
06:58 Why? Jesus said, all have fallen short of the glory of sin. Then all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. And now when you sin.
07:05 No, no, I’m okay. I’m okay. I’m okay.
07:07 What? You’re denying Christ because Christ says something else. You say something else, then you’re denying Christ. So if you do something and say something and think something, particularly think something opposite to the word of God.
07:21 You are denying Christ because Christ says A, you say, no, it is minus A or B or something else. You are denying Christ because you are denying what he said. You are denying Christ.
07:33 Brothers and sisters, when you fall into sin, the conviction comes. Run to Christ. Run to Jesus.
07:40 Sorry, Lord Jesus. Humble yourself and admit. Confess your sin.
07:46 There are false teachers teaching you to confess. Once when you came to Jesus Christ. Thereafter, nothing to confess anymore.
07:53 He is forgiven, giving you automatically washing you of all sin. Look, there Are sins we may not know that obviously he shows mercy and grace. But the sins that we know, we better confess.
08:06 Because even says confess your sins to one another. Confessing is not going to one confession and saying once a week or once a Sunday or once a month, or once on Christmas or once it’s thereabouts, Easter or thereabouts. That’s not it.
08:21 It’s an ongoing thing. Because you’re washing. We are washing the dirt out of us on a regular basis.
08:28 Confessing. He didn’t say, go to one man, confess yourselves sins to one another, to one another, not to a particular chap, not to a particular pastor or priest or whatever. Confessing to one another openly.
08:42 Why that is humbleness. Jesus wants us to be humble. Without humbleness in the mind, without humbleness in the heart, we cannot be really redeemed.
08:53 Because humbleness is fundamental in following Christ. Humbleness of the mind. Do you love me more than thee, son of Jonah Simon? Yes, Lord.
09:05 You know that I love you. Humble, humble. Always check here.
09:11 This is a good check. Whatever you speak, whatever you say, is it humble? Now the words may be humble. Are you humble in the heart? Are you humble in your thinking? You can say a lot of good Christian like words, but your mind may be thinking you’re better than the others.
09:29 That is why there’s another word of God which says, think yourself. Think others more highly than yourself. Think others more highly themselves.
09:39 I had to use that because before I came to the Lord I used to think of myself very highly. Very highly. And particularly when people cannot understand the things I could understand.
09:50 Finish. In fact I begin to think the stupid evil, all that has cost me so much of damage. Pride.
09:58 Pride is from Satan. So I was full of it. Full of pride in the mind.
10:03 First my mind was full of pride. And then after my heart will think, these people do not know what I am talking about. This is a complicated thing.
10:10 They don’t want to understand, but they want to talk as if they understand. They are stupid people. They don’t want to understand one thing, want to talk as if they understand.
10:18 What rubbish is that? Now my heart will rise up. That was what I was before Christ. Then when I came to God Almighty, when he arrested me, then I could see my mind was full of pride.
10:30 First of all, my mind was full of pride against Christ. My mind was full of pride, was not humble at all, was full of pride against Christ. How was I against Christ? Against his word, against his word.
10:46 For instance, his word will say, those who want to be the highest have to be the lowest first. Those who want to be the highest in heaven must be the lowest first. And even here, if you humble yourself, Jesus will raise you up here and you will have a great life.
11:02 But if you put yourself in pride and argument, quarrel, everything will come and you will not know the things of Christ. You will not know the spiritual things, because it will. Your pride is killing you.
11:14 My pride was killing me. And the pride is a big doorway. Jesus Christ says, do not give the devil a foothold.
11:22 But pride is a big opening, big opening. The avala comes in, he comes in and waxes. Because why pride is a big opening.
11:32 Pride is a really big opening for Satan to come. Because the first sin in all of eternity was pride. Satan had pride first he was Lucifer, Lucifer had pride.
11:46 And then when he was cast out, he had to become turned to Satan. Because separated from God Almighty, separated from the source of life. So Satan had pride.
11:59 Pride, pride. That’s what killing all of us. Better understand this.
12:04 The whole world that is suffering is full of pride. They may put on fault. There are a lot of Christians, I see this very soft, gentle like.
12:13 But inside their mind and heart full of pride. When they are dealing with the poor. When they are dealing with the poor, what you call patronize them, for instance, they will be poor in the church and they patronize the poor.
12:29 How are you, brother? How are you, sister? But they patronizing, they don’t feel anything there. They think, okay, Jesus said, take care of the poor, so I am blessed. I have blessed, so I will take care of the poor.
12:39 That’s a prideful heart. You humble yourself and think more highly of the fellow in front of you who is poor. Humble yourself, think more highly of him.
12:49 Ah, that can you do, you can do in the name of Jesus Christ. I had to learn to do that. When people come to me, people cannot understand anything.
12:59 But they are suffering. God Almighty. Because I told him, lord, I want your mind.
13:03 I don’t want my mind anymore. That was a covenant. Now, when I first came, within one, two weeks, a few weeks already I decided this.
13:10 I already realized it’s my mind who’ve done all this nonsense. And my mind, it’s my mind, not me. My mind.
13:17 Spirit being is child of God. And told Jesus, I don’t have mind. Lord, Holy Spirit, in the name of Jesus Christ, make my mind like mind of Christ.
13:28 Not my old mind anymore, not my carnal mind, not a fallen nature mind. In the name of Jesus Christ, I ask you, Holy Spirit, make it that kind of prayer. You can say you can say, but remember when you say it, the mind of Christ will come.
13:41 When the mind of Christ comes, then you have to obey. Next step is, oh, I got the mind of Christ. What do you do with the mind of Christ? Obey, obey, obey, obey.
13:51 That is why the next segment here is teach Christians to obey, brothers and sisters, the mind. So when you’re looking at people, think more highly of them. There are people who really don’t know any scripture or harm.
14:04 Ridiculous scripture misunderstanding come. They’ll come from Jesus. False teachings and then put on a prideful show here and talk to others as if they know in front of me.
14:13 They’ll keep quiet. When they go into groups to discuss. Oh, they take control.
14:18 They can’t even cast out evil spirits. And the pride will be rising out of them. I’ve seen so many.
14:24 The pride will be coming out of them, oozing out of them. Brothers and sisters. Pride in the mind.
14:30 Pride of the mind. Humble the mind in Jesus Christ’s name. You can do it.
14:30 Pride of the heart. Patronizing people. Hello, how are you, brother? All patronize truth.
14:40 You worship and love Jesus Christ. In truth. You love one another.
14:45 In truth. From a pure, sincere love. From a pure heart.
14:49 Jesus says, love everyone with a sincere heart. From a sincere love. From a pure heart.
14:56 Sincere love from a pure heart. Sincere love from a pure heart. The love has to be sincere.
15:01 Love has to be sincere. Brothers and sisters, this is very important. Check yourself today.
15:06 Check yourself anytime. Are you a child of God? How is your mind? Is your mind prideful? Is your mind prideful? Or is your mind humble? Or are you able to recognize? Hey, I’m thinking proudly. I’m thinking opposite to the word of Jesus Christ.
15:20 I’m opposite to the word of God. My mind is thinking proudly. Am I? Am I? Oh, yes, yes.
15:28 Sorry, Lord. Sorry, Lord. Merciful.
15:30 It says, spirit of pride, get out of the name of Jesus Christ. Get out of me. Spirit of pride.
15:34 Get out and not to return. I receive humbleness. I receive a spirit of humbleness.
15:39 Make me humble, Lord Jesus Christ, make me humble. I want to be yours. I want to please you.
15:41 I want to not grieve you anymore. Make me humble of mind. Make me humble of heart.
15:48 You begin to pray like that, brothers and sisters, that is why. Matthew 28:20, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you. And lo, I am with you always, regardless of circumstance and on every occasion, even to the end of the age, remaining with you perpetually teaching them to obey everything.
16:07 That’s a command for each of the disciples. To teach others. Feed my sheep means feed my sheep.
16:13 God said, if you love me, feed my sheep. Now we have to teach others what we know. Teach others to obey everything.
16:19 There are false teachings. They say, no, no, no. If you forgot to obey or didn’t obey, it’s okay.
16:23 He will overlook that because he loves you. He died for you. He died for you.
16:27 Even though you do anything, ya Allah, when you come to him, he accepts you because you didn’t know Him. Now that you know him, now you want to follow him. If you really want to be a disciple, you want to be a Christian, obey everything he commanded you.
16:41 Willing to obey. Willing to obey everything. Once you’re willing to obey everything step by step, he will make it obey.
16:47 He will make you obey in Jesus name. I know this. You can do this.
16:51 Brothers, sisters. You have to do this to please Jesus Christ of Nazareth. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, command every heart to obey Jesus.
17:00 And that is what loving Jesus is. Loving Jesus is obeying his commandments. Amen.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 12 March 2016 A Saturday. Watch and pray and feed my sheep. These are Jesus words.
00:12 We are dealing with the commandments of Jesus Christ. Watch and pray and feed my sheep. Brothers and sisters, the command is in Matthew 26:41.
00:22 Matthew 26:41. I am reading from Amplified. Keep actively watching and praying that you may not come into temptation.
00:32 The Spirit is willing, but the body is weak. Keep actively watching and praying that you may not come into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak.
00:43 Brothers and sisters, today let’s remember this. There are a lot of churches, lot of people will be telling you to pray for this and pray for that. In fact, we will be sitting in Asia.
00:54 They say, pray for America. Then they will say, pray for Jerusalem so that we are blessed. So people praying, the reason they are praying for Jerusalem, the peace of Jerusalem, is so that they be blessed.
01:05 Because that’s an obscure scripture they’ve taken and they made it out of context. So everybody thinks they can just pray for Jerusalem and be blessed. Brothers and sisters, blessing comes from Christ.
01:19 Christ, it is finished. He said on the cross 2,000 years ago, it is finished. It’s finished.
01:26 By his birth, he suffered, he died, he went into hell, he rose again. Now his faith is what we need. We need to believe in his faith.
01:35 We need to believe in Jesus Christ. And the belief, according to your belief, will be done unto you. Whatsoever you believe without doubting, ask in prayer according to the will of God, will be done unto you.
01:50 Brothers and sisters, if it’s a simple matter of just praying for Jerusalem, we will be blessed. That’s really out of context. Why then you can sin and sin and sin and just pray for Jerusalem and you’ll be blessed.
02:02 And that is why the people are still in a mess. People’s lives are total mess. Many are mess.
02:08 They’re suffering. No peace. No peace and no peace in the house.
02:13 No peace in their soul that things are breaking up. Oh, because I’m doing This thing for 20 years, I see all kinds of troubles. And then when I get to the bottom of it, it will be that they have misunderstood.
02:27 They think they don’t have to examine themselves, they don’t have to deny themselves, pick up the cross. They don’t have to deny the flesh nothing. But they just have to do some of the religious activities that the false teaching, false teachers have told them.
02:43 And their hearts also like it. Why their hearts like it? Because they do not want to address our sin Jesus said, they do not want to come to me because they want to keep their sin. So those who do not want to go to Jesus Christ.
02:56 Now, Jesus Christ means what? Deny yourself and pick up the cross. If you love me, keep my commandments. Now that has not been talked about in many, many places.
03:08 If ritualistic Christianity is thought about all, oh, come and do this, come and do that. Do all activity traditions of men. But the first thing Jesus said is what the last thing he said before he left earth is preach the gospel.
03:25 That those who believe these signs will follow. They will cast out evil spirits in my name. Now, that’s why you have to start casting out evil spirits in Jesus Christ’s name.
03:36 Why do we cast out? Because we have become captives of these evil spirits, captives of demons. Oh, they’re not going to put on a show for you. They’re not going to put oha and all that, you know, demonized thing.
03:49 It’s not going to be like that. It will be a simple captivity in. Captivity in sin, captivity in some addiction.
03:55 You cannot let go of cigarettes. You cannot let go of sexual immorality. You cannot let go of lying.
03:55 You cannot let go of of jealousy. You cannot let go of envy. You cannot let go of anger.
04:06 It’s like that. So when you cannot let go of anything of this that is harming you, which is not of Christ, if you cannot let go of anything that is not of Christ, is against Christ, then you are a captive. Captive.
04:21 And that is why Jesus said, cast out evil spirits in my name. You have to start doing that first. This is the only way.
04:28 You are going to be set free by Jesus Christ by using his name, using his power, believing in his command to cast out, cast out the evil spirit of anger, cast out the evil spirit of jealousy, cast out the evil spirit of anxiousness or anxiety, cast out the evil spirit of worry. Now you cast out. Cast out.
04:49 That is praying. You’re praying, you’re casting out. You’re casting out.
04:53 That is why he said, watch and pray. Watch and pray. Did you say do ritualistically? In fact, he says, don’t do as the unbelievers do.
05:01 Repeating your prayer on and on and on. The same sentence being repeated, repeated, repeated, repeated 10 times, 100 times. Whatever he said, that is pointless, that you do not even know who they are praying to.
05:15 They just repeat and repeat and repeat. Here he says, watch and pray. Watch what? Watch.
05:22 Watch what, brother? Watch that we do not come into temptation. We do not come to temptation. There is some temptation coming to us.
05:30 How Are we tempted when we are drawn by our own heart desire? That’s how we are tempted. Remember temptation better understand this clearly. He has spelled out all this for us.
05:42 Temptation comes when we are drawn by our own heart desire. Then temptation comes. When temptation is full blown, sin comes.
05:49 And sin is full blown, death comes. Now, physically, you may die many years later. But in the meantime, you died in the spirit.
05:59 Spirit death. You know the spirit. Man is dead because they didn’t sin.
06:05 Then. You now have to be made alive in Christ. When you believe in Christ, the Spirit of God will come and use the blood of Jesus Christ and wash away your sins and your spirit man will become alive in Christ.
06:18 Now, actively watching and praying. Watch and pray. Watch and watch yourself.
06:25 Watch what? Watch Jerusalem. No, watch yourself. Watch yourself.
06:30 Jesus already said, my kingdom is not of this world. My kingdom is not of this world. So he is coming to establish a new kingdom.
06:39 So therefore he wants you to be settled with him. Seek ye the kingdom of God and his righteousness first and all his things will be added unto you. Seek ye the kingdom of God and his righteousness first.
06:55 Did he say, pray for Jerusalem? There’s one scripture saying, pray for Jerusalem. That you know that you are blessed. You know the peace of Jerusalem and you’ll be blessed.
07:05 But the point again is this. That is, remember this. He was saying this before he died and rose again.
07:14 He’s saying before he died and rose again. When he rose again, then he says this in Christ, there’s no Jew or Gentile, there’s no Jew or unbeliever. That is all one in one in Christ, you are Christians.
07:31 These things he spoke to the Jews when he was walking this earth. And it’s not gone on the cross yet. So now what people are doing to twist the thing.
07:42 Pray for peace of Jerusalem and you’ll be blessed. Pray for peace of Jerusalem and people start praying for the peace of Jerusalem, Why they want to be blessed. But the actual blessing, he already told you, seek the kingdom of God and righteousness first.
07:55 And all this will be added. All your needs will be settled. You are blessed.
08:00 You are blessed. All your needs will be settled. Now, the sign that you can check is this.
08:07 If you are praying for the peace of Jerusalem and you see your life and your conduct is still in a mess. In a mess, you may have money. That’s not the only blessing.
08:15 Blessing. Blessing means money, Money, money. Yeah, we need the money.
08:19 It’s incidental to our life. Oh, but don’t make it the main thing to our life. Because the Main thing of life is Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
08:26 That’s the main thing. He is the main thing to our life. He is life.
08:30 I am the way, the truth and life. Money is not our life. It’s incidental to our life.
08:36 And Jesus said he will provide our needs and he does. I’ve seen this in not my case alone, other cases, other people, other souls ministering for this for so long. A lot of people who follow this righteousness, peace and joy seeking the kingdom of God.
08:51 They’ve been blessed. First, watching and praying that you may not come into temptation. So you recognize temptation watch means examine yourself watching.
09:01 That’s why the examining yourself is critical. You examine yourself. Is your heart being drawn to things that are not of Christ? Is your heart being drawn to the ways of the world? Is your heart being drawn to things that are not of God? Is your heart is being drawn to those things.
09:19 You immediately cut it in the name of Jesus Christ and command that spirit. Because there’s some demon communicating with your heart and drawing your heart. Our heart is treacherously wicked.
09:31 A demon is actively talking to your heart and drawing your heart. You better start dealing with the heart by renewing in the spirit of the mind. Now you begin to take the word of God.
09:42 Now watch the word of God. First you have watched yourself. You examine yourself.
09:46 Now you watch the word of God in the spirit. Read the word of God again and again. That’s related to your situation.
09:54 The temptation when you watch already, you know that particular temptation. Let’s say anger coming. Okay, then what? Anyone angry with a brother without a cause is a murderer.
10:04 So you begin to say, I don’t want to be a murderer in Jesus name heart. You shut up. Mind you shut up.
10:10 God’s word is this. If I’m angry with people without a cause, I’m a murderer, brother. Now if I’m angry, anger will harm me.
10:19 All kinds of cortisol will be produced by the adrenal glands and there will be a lot of damage. Inflammation taking place all over me. Why? This cortisol is a hormone that produces when you’re angry, when you’re upset, when you’re fear, when you’re confused, all that will happen.
10:36 So this cortisol. Oh, no, no. We need cortisol.
10:39 But then if we continue being angry, then begin to damage your body. Now all kinds of things are coming. Now, brothers and sisters, today you watch and pray.
10:47 You examine yourself. You watch whether you’re going into temptation or not. So some people call you to go somewhere.
10:54 Is it causing you temptation? Now One of the things I always see is people who are not rooted. They do not put Christ first. They want Christ.
11:04 They want Christ. They want to put Christ first. But when a situation comes, immediately the mind forgets about that.
11:11 They forget it is Jesus Christ who settles you. They forget that what they do immediately they begin to be drawn. Because they have to go with the people of the world to go and settle some things.
11:22 They are drawn there. They go in there because they are hoping that finally, before you know it, your faith becomes on the faith of man. You are putting your faith in man.
11:30 God said, do not put your faith in man. Now, why then the man says this, the man says that. And then you begin to follow here, this way, that way.
11:37 Because now you have forgotten that provided for you is Jesus Christ of Nazareth. He is the only one died for you. Rose again now.
11:45 Now when you begin to now begin. Yeah. Jesus will use man to help you from time to time.
11:51 But do not put your faith in man. Be grateful to the man. But do not put your faith in man.
11:57 So the man said, no, no. Now I have to. You know I have to.
12:01 Suddenly I have to call you. Then what happens? I’ve seen this. Not one person, many people over the years.
12:06 Then they begin to think. Okay, I think I do not bother, but said, today I have to wait for this man’s call. If I go to church, I cannot attend to this man.
12:14 Suddenly he calls. Now faith is where. Faith is in the man.
12:18 Now automatically. Jesus Christ is far from you now. You have left him.
12:25 You’re left thinking about him. You’re left about faith in him. You left your trust in him, your life.
12:32 You look back and see how did you get life. You were in a mess then only your life came. You are in pain and Jesus settled you.
12:39 You have all kinds of health issues. Jesus settled you. Look at that.
12:43 Look, your family has no peace. That’s Jesus settled you. But suddenly, for one issue, step by step, the devil will draw you.
12:49 He’ll draw you somewhere. And you do not know. Never watch and pray.
12:53 Watch. Am I putting Jesus Christ first? If I do not put Jesus Christ first and I begin to put the faith in men. What is this? Suppose that service today and you begin to think.
13:04 No, no, I will wait for the call. If not, I may lose this thing. The man will call.
13:09 The man will call. Faith is where in the man. If you say, no, Lord, I trust you.
13:15 You’re the one who settles everything. I will go and settle your first. Put God first.
13:20 Put the things of God first. Put the things of Jesus Christ first, put the things of Jesus Christ first. So you watch and pray, and then you pray, commanding your heart and mind.
13:30 No, my trust will not be in men. My. My trust will be in Jesus Christ.
13:34 Then the devil cannot steal from you. The devil cannot steal from you. But if you are moved by this, and it happens because you are in the world.
13:42 Therefore Jesus told the disciples, you are in the world, but you are not of this world. You are in the world, but not of this world means two different things. You are in the world, we all are in the world.
13:52 But we are not born of this world. We are born of God. We are born of Jesus Christ.
13:57 Always put Jesus Christ first, brothers and sisters. Therefore, this issue, this issue of trusting Christ, slowly your heart will go, you know, develop. Yeah.
14:07 It is tempted to me also from time to time, and cut the thing in Jesus Christ’s name. But if you put Jesus all the time first, first, first, suddenly the Holy Spirit will tell you, no, don’t do this. Do the things of God first.
14:20 You go to service to serve, not to be served. To serve and not to be served. So when you go to service, you are thinking of others.
14:29 How do I serve them? What word will I talk to them? What can I tell the children? What I can tell the women? What can I share that happened in my life that can glorify Jesus Christ today? How do I break bread with my brothers and sisters? How do I have a meal with them today? This my family in Christ. I have to go. I have to go.
14:47 Oh, that time the heart would tell. Hey, you lose the thing. Man said he’ll call you.
14:51 Yeah, if he calls, then if you can go. Supposing, on the other hand, flood, can you go? Cannot flood. You stay at the house waiting for this call.
15:01 Waiting for this call. And the flood happens. Big traffic jam.
15:05 Can go, cannot go. What happens when you. Let’s say you have so much of pain in your knees and you cannot get up and walk? Can you go, cannot go.
15:13 Who’s going to settle you? Only Jesus Christ can settle you. That’s why. But then, if you do not put Jesus Christ first, and you put the things of God you do not do first.
15:23 And you put the things of man. That one they told you. And then you’re hanging on to this.
15:27 That’s exactly what the devil will come to steal. And now he has a right. He has a right.
15:33 I told you, even our money, if you surrender to Jesus Christ, the fellow cannot steal. But if I keep it to myself and decide how I do with my money as I wish. The devil can steal, but from Jesus Christ he can’t steal.
15:46 Now the Pharaoh will come and tempt you now. Now, the very thing you are now depending on, hoping on. Now you do not have it because he can steal from you.
15:56 Why you did not put the things of God first? You did not put the things of Jesus Christ first. Always put the things of Jesus Christ first. Now, I cannot force you.
16:09 I can only tell you how the spirit world works. How the spirit world working. How the devil tempts us.
16:13 How the devil takes our faith, slowly. Draws our heart. How our wicked heart very quickly goes in faith in man and not on God.
16:23 Our wicked heart quickly goes to the faith of man and not in God. Brothers and sisters, today remember this. Watch and pray.
16:29 Watch and pray. Watch that we do not fall into temptation. Body is weak.
16:34 The Bible says, command the body to stand down. Command the heart and mind to rise up in Jesus Christ and follow Jesus and the faith in Jesus. The spirit man is willing.
16:45 Yes. Watch and pray. Watch and pray.
16:48 Put the things of Jesus Christ always first. Always first. For your own safety.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily. 11 March 2016. Render unto Caesar and await my return.
00:12 Await my return. Brothers and sisters, today the power of prayer. Daily there are two topics.
00:15 Render unto Caesar and the next topic. Await my return. We don’t know how much we can cover.
00:20 As the Lord leads always. Righteousness, peace and joy. Righteousness, peace and joy.
00:25 When I get up this morning, last night you should have examined yourself already. In fact, by now, those of you are sometime getting the power of Christ daily and listening and employing it, engaging it, using the word of God, turning to Christ in everything you will already know. The Holy Spirit will convict you when you are doing some sin or going towards sin, because the Holy Spirit has sealed you for the day of salvation.
00:51 That is what the Bible says. So long as we want to follow Jesus, he is merciful. He loves you.
00:59 Now, that is still our want or not. It’s our choice. Brothers and sisters, we have examined ourselves and let’s look at it today.
01:06 Render unto Caesar. Brothers and sisters, this is in Matthew 22, verse 19 to 21. Matthew 22.
01:18 Show me the coin. This is a situation whereby they said they were questioning Jesus about money, you know, paying taxes, taxes. Showed me the coin used for the poll tax.
01:32 And they brought him a denarius, a day’s wage. That means, can you imagine one coin, a gold coin denarius is a day’s wage. And Jesus said to them, whose likeness and inscription is in this? They said, the Emperor Tiberius Caesar.
01:49 They say, Caesar, Caesar. At the time, Caesar. Caesar is the title, you know, like the king.
01:55 So at that time, Caesar was Emperor Tiberius. Then he said to them, then pay to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s. And to God the things that are God’s.
02:08 Brothers and sisters, then pay to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s. Here is a very clear indication. When we follow Jesus Christ, the command says, obey the laws of the nation.
02:20 Obey. Obey the law of nations. Only time we cannot.
02:24 When they say, don’t follow Jesus or don’t obey Jesus, we cannot. Then by mercy we pray we are not persecuted. But if we are persecuted by mercy of Christ, we take it.
02:35 We have to take it. When they hang in there, knowing fully well our home is heaven, we are not citizens of this world. We are pilgrims.
02:43 So, brothers and sisters, today remember this obeying the laws of the land is critical. There are many who think they can just do whatever they want just because they follow Jesus. Not true.
02:54 Jesus didn’t say this. Even taxes, there are two types in the accounting world. They’ll tell you tax evasion and tax avoidance.
03:05 Tax evasion is when you evade, you don’t want to pay at all, you hide your income and all that. Let’s not do this. Why? Now you see, you think the authorities may not know.
03:16 But remember, the devil knows, God knows, and Jesus Christ already told you clearly, pay unto Caesar. What is Caesar’s. Whatever taxes are supposed to pay, you have to pay.
03:26 You’re trying to avoid. Oh, you say the tax too much. They should not be charging me so much.
03:31 All that may be true even in many countries, but it’s still the law. It’s still the law until the law is changed. You have to obey.
03:40 Now, if you cannot, then you ask Christ for more income to pay these taxes. And two, you can ask Jesus to get you out of the country to some other country where life is different or whatever. But this is all only Jesus can do for you.
03:55 We do not use our own mind and begin to make a decision and say, okay, I’m not happy with the taxes, so I will just evade the tax laws. Then the devil, knowing this, you have given him a foothold, he’ll come in and steal from you. The time is that you’re not bothered by taxes.
04:12 He can steal anything from you. When you allow the devil a foothold, he can steal anything from you. He can steal your life, he can steal your health, he can steal your.
04:22 He can cause accidents. He can do all kinds of things. Why you have allowed the.
04:28 Jesus said, the devil, your enemy. Your enemy. The devil walks about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may swallow, you, may devour.
04:36 Swallow. So now we are giving the devil a foothold. So therefore, please, please, please do not have the mistaken things you know, mistaken understanding.
04:48 Even some people may teach this. But clearly unto Caesar, what is Caesar? You have to pay what you have to pay now. So you cannot buy a car.
04:59 Maybe you can change your car. Maybe because your taxes are that much. Taxes, you pay taxes.
05:03 So now what you do, you sit in Christ. Look at the words of God. Look at the words of God, Jesus Christ.
05:11 Because if you love me, keep my commandments. This is another thing. We have to love him the way he wants us to love him.
05:17 We cannot love him any which way and say, I love Jesus Christ. And then we do what we want. Say, I love.
05:23 I feel love for Jesus Christ. Some may not because of the carnal thing, the music is good or whatever. They have so much of good instruments and all that.
05:34 So that one, if you go to the symphony orchestras, you will feel good. Or so if you go to some music stadium whereby somebody that you like who sing, you go there, you will feel good also. That doesn’t mean you are loving Jesus Christ because of the music.
05:50 If you love me, keep my commandments. We have to love him the way he told us to love. What is a sign of loving him is if you love me, keep my commandments.
06:00 This is love. Walk in my commandments. Only when you walk in his commandments.
06:04 In the commandments of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ considers that we are loving him. We just feel love and we don’t walk in commandments.
06:14 He says, no, that is not. Cut it. It’s not it.
06:16 You’re not loving me. You’re just having the feeling. Feelings from the heart.
06:21 Felt prayer. Yeah. That means you felt prayer.
06:24 Feeling must be in line with the word of Jesus Christ. Feelings that are not in line with the word of Jesus Christ is from Antichrist, is from Satan, isn’t it? You have feelings like we are married. Then you have feelings for another woman because she’s in trouble or whatever.
06:43 Look, compassion will be there, but get your wife involved to help the other woman, because you have to help others. Get your wife involved. But if you’re having feelings other than compassion for her trouble and undue affection you are having, that is demonic, satanic.
07:04 It is not feelings. That is righteousness in Christ. Righteousness in Christ.
07:08 Feelings. That’s why feelings also have to be identified. Is it of Christ or is it of the flesh? Is it of your flesh, your own flesh? Or is it of the world? The world is tempting you.
07:20 Good music. So a lot of times this has happened in churches, plenty of good music. And then after that, people think they love Jesus Christ when he has determined, when he instructed clearly, if you love me, keep my commandments.
07:34 This is love he has commanded and he defined it. This love means walking in my commandments. Now, this is love.
07:41 One commandment is keep unto Caesar. What is Caesar? Pay your taxes. Pay your taxes.
07:49 Now. Evasion, as I said outright, you don’t try to decline, you don’t decline income. And all this.
07:54 Now, avoidance. There also can be legal and illegal avoidance. Why avoidance? The tax department has given you certain exemptions under certain conditions.
08:05 Now, if you try to abuse the conditions, you know, try to fix things in such a manner, force in a condition, then eventually they’ll catch you in. And then, you know, there’s old saying, you cannot. There are only two things you cannot escape in Life, debt and taxes, you cannot escape dying.
08:24 And the two, you’re going to escape taxes. And it’s a joke. But that’s how good the tax department is in every country, because it’s collection.
08:32 So if you were to avoid legally, that means you are allowed a certain exemption. Yes, better check it. And if you allow the certain exemption and you don’t check to take it, you’re not a good steward.
08:44 God says be a good steward because the money belongs to Christ. So when he pays taxes, you better pay the taxes. You have surrendered all to Christ.
08:53 The money belongs to Christ. And then even taking the best all the exemptions and reliefs they give, you have to take. If you don’t understand, you have to study.
09:04 You cannot study and don’t understand. Get counsel, get people to help you because be a good steward of the money that Jesus Christ has given you now. So everything that Tajiba allows, you must claim, you’re not claiming, you’re not that.
09:18 Then you are not good steward. Now, when you’re not a good steward, if you intently did well and then finally you didn’t make mistakes, Jesus Christ will protect you. You made mistake because you’re not intentioned, but you are doing everything.
09:31 Get the right counsel, right relief and all that. You’re studying, you’re paying attention now. If you don’t, you couldn’t be bothered.
09:40 You just do what you want. Then you are not taking the exemptions or reliefs that the government gives legally. Then you are not a good steward.
09:49 And once you are not a good steward in one area, that will spread like the leaven of the Pharisees. Remember east time spread and you will not be a good steward in every other area. After a while.
10:02 After a while, this attitude of poor stewardship will apply everywhere else in your business, in your work, in your, how you spend your money, how you care for your family. Because you’re poor steward now you are a lazy steward. It will begin to apply everywhere.
10:19 We ought to avoid this because it’s a terrible thing. So let’s be good steward. Oh, you are very hard.
10:24 Now what is pastor telling? I am not telling you this. It’s God’s word. By the same time, it applies to me also.
10:30 But then if you ask if it’s hard, difficult, so many things happening in your home, maybe tragedy has happened, maybe there’s sickness. Yes, I’ve gone through, my family has gone through all this. My wife, my children have gone through all this.
10:44 And from time to time we go through, but we go through. And then we call on to Jesus Christ for power. Power of Christ as we begin to love Him.
10:54 Righteousness, peace and joy. You must seek the righteousness, peace and joy. When you do that, then first stop and worship.
11:01 Get the righteousness, peace and joy. Joy, brothers and sisters. And in that joy, things will begin to happen for you.
11:07 In that righteousness, peace and joy, things will begin to happen for you. So first seek ye the kingdom of God and its righteousness daily. So when you do that, then you sit and look in the peace of Christ.
11:19 Anxiousness cannot kill anxiety. Before anxiety kills you, anxiousness means you begin to worship. Cast out.
11:27 Cast out spirit of anxiety. Cast out spirit of fear. And then be content.
11:32 Content with godliness, great gain. So brothers and sisters, today do the right thing. Yes, it is effort, but Jesus power will come.
11:42 Jesus love. Remember his love. He loves you.
11:45 You’re not lefty as often. So when you cry out to him, he’ll do something. He’ll do something.
11:51 But remember, many times people pray, asking, lord, give me strength. And all that is not correct. You cast out evil spirits first.
11:59 Because he said, those who believe his signs will follow. They’ll cast out evil spirits in my name. You cast out evil spirits, Evil spirit of laziness, evil spirit of bad stewardship.
12:09 Get out of me in the name of Jesus Christ. Now you begin to cast all this out. Then you begin to worship.
12:14 Then you begin to get the joy. You look at the joy he has suffered for you. He’s coming back for you.
12:20 He’s coming back for you. Then you get the joy. You walk your day.
12:24 You don’t want to do any wrong anymore. And Jesus will see you through. Now the next topic here we talked about is await my return.
12:33 Now be ready for his coming. Await my return means be ready for his coming. Now it’s very clear this thing because it’s critical.
12:40 He’s only coming back for those who are eagerly waiting for him. He said that? No, he’s only coming back with those who are eagerly waiting for him. So there he thinks about it.
12:52 And I met a decision. I told others, hey, before eating food, think of his return. So we have to think of it coming back.
13:00 Then we need ourselves check because our heart and mind is fallen nature problem. So we have to start thinking when you’re coming back, what am I doing and all that. So it’s good time to examine before eating food, you know? And then you will know convicted.
13:13 That’s why he said what want to sacrifice thing to Christ. Leave it there, go and settle with your brother. Isn’t it now brothers and sisters, today Matthew 24:42 so be alert.
13:22 Matthew 24:42 so be alert, give strict attention, be cautious and active in faith Be alert is identified as give strict attention, be cautious and active in faith. For you do not know which day your Lord is coming. You do not know which day Jesus Christ is coming, whether near or far then 43 but understand this, if the head of the house had known what time of the night the tea was coming, he would have been alert on the alert.
13:56 He would have been on the alert and would not have allowed his house to be broken into. True, isn’t it? If the head of the house knew what time the tea was coming, he would have been alert and would not have allowed the house to be broken into. 44 Therefore you who follow me this Jesus saying the therefore you follow me must also be ready because the Son of Man is coming at an hour when you do not expect him.
14:20 When you do not expect him. These are big hoohah going on in the world. You know this coming second coming, plant this plan that now all trying to identify when exactly he’ll come.
14:31 But he already said he’s only coming back when you do not expect him. So whenever people are expecting him to come back on a certain time, it’s not going to happen at that time. It’s going to happen when people are not expecting.
14:45 So brothers and sisters, today make up your mind because the Word clear. There are other scriptures to say that he’s coming back for those who are eagerly awaiting Him. Let us eagerly wait for our Lord and Master, Jesus Christ, the Archon of our soul.
14:59 Eagerly wait whether it’s today, tomorrow, daily. We must be ready daily. That’s what the Bible is saying.
15:07 That’s what Jesus Christ is saying. Daily. Be ready daily.
15:12 That means now before you eat your food, have any food, breakfast, lunch or dinner or whatever you took. You’re praying sanctify the food. Generally we say sanctify the food because the self thinking we want to protect ourselves from any problem with the food and we want the food to be nourishing to us and all that.
15:27 But now add one more thing. Lord Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to know that you are coming back an hour when we do not expect I am waiting for you Lord. I command my heart and mind to eagerly wait for you Jesus Christ to come in the name of Jesus Christ.
15:29 I command my heart and mind to eagerly wait in the name of Jesus Christ. I command my heart and mind to crave for Jesus Christ to love him. Do some prayer on your own, make your own words.
15:56 Because he is a husband of your soul, you love him. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart to love him. And loving him according to the will of Jesus Christ, which is keeping his commandments.
15:59 In the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to obey the commandments of Jesus Christ. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to love Jesus Christ, to crave for Jesus Christ, to seek his word. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to meditate on the words of Jesus Christ.
16:27 Meditate on his commands. I love his commands. I want to obey his commands.
16:32 In the name of Jesus Christ, I want to obey his command. In the name of Jesus Christ. Holy Spirit, make me obey the commandments of Jesus Christ so that I will please him.
16:34 I want to please him. I want to please the husband of my soul. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray something like this.
16:49 Just take two, three minutes and pray, brothers and sisters. In fact, within a minute you said this prayer. In Jesus name I pray.
16:55 So we begin to train our heart and mind to eagerly wait for him. Amen.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 10 March 2016 titled if you have faith and render unto Caesar. If you have faith and render unto Caesar. Brothers and sisters, today we hope that we can cover as much as we can.
00:16 But there’s no anxiety. Don’t be anxious for anything. There’s a segment that God made me do that is called kill anxiety before anxiety kills you.
00:26 If we do not kill anxiety, anxiety will kill us. Anxiousness is a Jesus doesn’t want us to be anxious for anything, for anything, even for life, even for living, even for finances, even for food. Nothing.
00:40 He said, look, trust him, trust him, he will provide. How he provides is his power. His unlimited power.
00:52 His understanding, which is far above us, cannot come near. We cannot come near his understanding too far. He is a Creator and we are created.
01:00 So he is just asking us to believe in his works. Believe in him, believe in what he does. Have faith in the faith of Christ.
01:10 Our faith is required only to be faith of Christ. So now, brothers and sisters, today, Matthew 21:21, Matthew 21:21 almost I’m reading. Jesus replied to them, I assure you.
01:25 And this amplified, I assure you. And most solemnly I say to you, if you have failed and do not doubt, you will not only have what was done to the fig tree, but even you said to this mountain, be taken up and thrown into the sea. It will happen.
01:46 Now when I read the next one again, I’ll read this, but this time with all this explanation in between. Jesus replied to them, Matthew 21:21 onwards, Matthew 21:21, Jesus replied to them, I assure you and most solemnly state to you, if you have faith, that is personal trust and confidence in me, and do not doubt or allow yourself to be drawn in two directions. You will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, be taken up and thrown into the sea, it will happen if God wills it.
02:22 If God wills it. And whatever you ask for in prayer, believing you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer, believing you will receive, John 15:7 if you remain in me and and my words remain in you. That is, if we are vitally united and my message lives in your heart.
02:43 Ask whatever you wish and it will be done unto you or done for you. Brothers and sisters, whatever we ask, there are conditions. It must be according to the will of God.
02:54 In fact, it’s clear that we ask and we do not receive because we ask amiss. This is in book of James. We ask and do not receive because we ask, commit.
03:05 We ask away from the will of God. And if we ask means first of all, we must be in Christ Jesus. There are people just praying, praying, praying, praying, praying, pity.
03:16 Well, we have done that before, so it is not we are putting somebody down. We have all done all this. So let us understand this.
03:24 We are not condemning anybody. I am not condemning anybody. I am telling you, look, I keep telling you my sins because to let people know, look, we are hope.
03:31 Whatever sins you are doing, you have hope. And you only have to turn. You have purpose in your heart to know that only Jesus Christ has settled us and we have to turn to him.
03:42 Only he is the provider. Because as I said, wherever our hearts and minds are fallen nature like this, wherever we got options, we will run to death. Jesus says they do not come to me because they want to keep their sins.
03:56 So I too didn’t go to him before Jesus arrested me because I was keeping my sins. And of course we were also ignorant because I was under the impression that I must change completely and go to Jesus. And two, I go to Jesus, I must give up my thinking, I must give up my worldly weight and all that.
04:14 So of course I’m not going to Jesus. So what Jesus has already said in the scriptures, which I didn’t know at the time, is when we don’t go to Jesus, when somebody doesn’t go to Jesus or turn to Jesus after you are ministering or witnessing, you must remember they want to keep their sins. I’m not saying this.
04:32 Jesus Christ himself said this. They do not come to me because they want to keep their sins. And that happened to me because I was thinking if I go to Jesus, I must change my ways.
04:41 How can I? I must stop my drinking and all that. The adultery business is like my second wife. I didn’t even really consider it too much of a sin there, you know, although there’s some conviction from time to time, it’ll brush it away.
04:53 No, I’m entitled. I can marry how many number I want. And all this foolishness was there completely forgetting the fact that I made a marriage covenant with my wife, completely ignoring all that.
05:05 Because when our heart is drawn, we will do what our heart does only we will do. And we will justify what the heart is saying. And we will get angry with people when people tell us we are wrong.
05:17 True, this is true. We will get angry with people when people tell us we are wrong. We get angry.
05:22 Why? Because we are believing our heart. We want what our heart wants. We want to Keep our seed.
05:28 So we get angry. So brothers and sisters, instead of getting angry, because that double whammy, they say, first of all, you have to keep your sins. Next thing is you’re getting angry, the anger will destroy you.
05:39 So please don’t look at the word of Jesus Christ. Let’s look at it truthfully, sincerely. Otherwise we’ll be deceiving ourselves only.
05:50 And it’s not going to benefit us if we live in the light. It’s not going to benefit us, it’s going to destroy us more and more. So, brothers and sisters, today I’ll Read again Matthew 21:21.
06:03 Jesus replied to them, I assure you and most solemnly said to you, I assure you, he says, and most solemnly, seriously, Seriously, I tell you, he said, if you have faith and do not doubt or allow yourself to be drawn in two directions, you will not only do, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree. Now, the fig tree story is what he cursed the fig tree, isn’t it? Because the fig tree had lived from a distance. He was hungry after a long day of ministry.
06:31 He was going there. And then he said, let me eat some fruits. So he went to fig tree.
06:35 He went there, he see no figs. So he considered it hypocritical, considered it lying because he had a lot of leaf, means it’s supposed to be fruiting. It was not doing that.
06:46 So. So he cursed the tree from the root and said, you will not deceive anybody else. Finish.
06:51 So Jesus wants the truth. So you reading this or listening to me in the morning? Or so you actually listen to the Word of God? Because listening to me is useless. So listening to the Word of God, I’m only merely a messenger releasing this and using my own experiences.
07:06 What happened? How Jesus released me, how Jesus settled me and releasing that. Now, brothers and sisters, today very simple. First, when you read the Scriptures, you must be willing to follow.
07:16 You want the truth. You want to be willing to accept the truth. If you are reading the scripture critically, oh, is it correct? Does this work for me? Is this, maybe not this and that it does not work for you.
07:28 Why? Jesus said, if you come to me, come trusting, come believing. This is his word. When you come read His Word, you better accept His Word.
07:36 And he says, they do not understand because they do not accept My Word. So to understand these words, we must first decide to accept what Jesus Christ is saying is true. Now, if you cannot accept what Jesus Christ is saying is true, reading this is useless.
07:54 In fact, there will be confusion. Now for you. Now when you read this, you better say what Jesus said.
08:00 It is true. And it says my heart and mind is duping me. It’s calling me.
08:05 I do not want to listen to my heart and mind. I assure you and most solemnly say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt or allow yourself to be drawn into two directions. This comes from James, double minded.
08:17 This one, that one, this when you go and say this job, that job, this job, that job or this vitamin, that vitamin, this vitamin, that vitamin, Double minded vitamin or natural. Vitamin or natural. You know this goes on.
08:32 Double minded, nothing going to work. But you can stop all this in the name of Jesus Christ, double minded way. No, you think it’s the mind.
08:41 Actually it’s in the heart. Double minded, sensing, believing in the heart. Double minded.
08:47 Oh, believe this, believe that, believe this, believe that. Well, all of us did that before. So now you command your heart and mind in the name of Jesus Christ to be single minded in Christ.
08:56 That’s it. That’s it. By the blood of Jesus Christ I command my heart and mind to be single minded in Christ.
09:02 What Jesus said is true. Heart and mind. I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to obey, believe and obey the word of God.
09:09 Every day, two, three times you wag the fellow like that, wag the heart and mind like that in Jesus Christ’s name they will change. And then you begin to look at the word of God. Look at many words of God, Many words of God.
09:20 Scriptures you know. In fact you take so many have been talked about and written in this. I think there’s 280something now.
09:26 I think so. Brother and sister is here. Do not doubt turkeys.
09:31 If you have faith, that means believing in our faith. In what? In Jesus Christ. Your faith is not talking about your faith that the victory will be destroyed.
09:36 Your faith is asking you to have personal trust and confidence in Jesus Christ. If you have faith bracket personal trust and confidence in me. Our faith is in Jesus Christ to do for us.
09:52 Our faith is in the word of Jesus Christ that it is true. It’s not that. Suppose you command the mountain.
10:01 Go, go. Of course, it must be the will of God. And you know what happens if you command the mountain to go.
10:07 And you’re believing in the mountain to go. This is an error I made long ago. After that, when Jesus Christ turned me around, I could understand this.
10:15 Your faith is the faith of Christ. Your faith is not that. Let’s say you cursed the fig tree.
10:20 He cursed the fig tree because it was not bearing fruit. Now when we do, curse of victory, let’s say we curse cancer in the name of Jesus Christ. Cancer is not of God.
10:33 So any growth, never mind not with cancer, you see any growth that’s a growth in the breast of a woman and then a sister, and then she wants prayers or anybody wants to matter, who wants to believe in Christ. Now you begin to command the growth to disappear, the growth to go. In Jesus Christ’s name, I command the growth to disappear.
10:52 Now, shrink now, now, now. In fact, that’s what the congregation that I minister in do when somebody comes, they pray like that on the phone also, even they command the growth to shrink now, now, now. And you know what? And their faith is in the personal trust, in the confidence in Jesus Christ, not in that, oh, you shrink.
11:14 I have faith it will shrink. I have faith it will shrink. No, don’t look at that because you’re looking at the swelling or the growth.
11:21 Your faith has gone down into the drain already. Because if you have growth in your breast, the woman will panic, fear, confusion will come. So now we only put our eyes on Jesus.
11:33 Put our eyes on Jesus. Faith in Jesus. Faith in Jesus.
11:37 So any pain when you rub it with your hand, it will go. Let’s say you got knee pain, some arthritic pain in Jesus name, you rub it, just rub down, rub down from top to bottom. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command this pain to go.
11:49 I command every spirit of arthritis to get out. In the name of Jesus, I command the arthritis to go. Spirit of arthritis, I curse you.
11:56 Get out. In the name of Jesus Christ. You keep on stroking, stroking, stroking.
12:00 The pain will go within a few minutes you do it. But your faith is in Jesus Christ. So if you have faith in Jesus Christ, if you have faith in the confidence in Jesus Christ, if you have faith, I mean, look at all the examples he has done.
12:15 Look at the testimony, the graceoflife.com so many women, so many people have been healed and all that. You read that to build your faith in Jesus Christ, not in the graceoflife.com page or me. So you then do what then you begin to command now, now, now, now, we call it the now, now prayers.
12:35 So what will happen is when they do, this is not one case, many. It will shrink now then after we shrink and all that. Obviously you have to look at the 20%, 80% is spiritual.
12:46 You have to look at the anger, the bitterness and all that. These are all causes, cancer also bitterness, anger, low self esteem and all these other things. You know, you are not bold you take the fearful and all that.
13:03 So there they will counsel you. Then you begin to. Then you look at the 20%.
13:08 The 20% in the what food you are eating, the drinking water, maybe you are not filtering or something. That area may be poisoned. That area may have some industries that are causing this throughout the world.
13:20 Throughout the world, industries may be causing pollution, water may be polluted. So if you look at the 20% electromagnetic waves whereby you’re sitting in a place where full of computers and cell phone all the time you’re on the cell phone, cell phone, cell phone or keeping the cell phone near you. There’s a test done, there’s experiments done.
13:38 When men carrying their handphones, the smartphones in their pockets, they. They have become infertile, they don’t have sperm produced. Stones have been killed off by these magnetic waves.
13:49 And they can’t have babies, they can’t have children because all this is happening. So the 20% of the studies that redo that by having said that. But the growth will shrink now.
14:02 Now, now. It will shrink now. So two daisy means so not.
14:07 Of course Shangjimi will shrink or not. Shrink or not. You better stop that because you believe, you keep your eyes on Jesus.
14:13 Because you keep your eyes on the growth, the devil will put on thoughts and your heart will say we shrink or not. We shrink or not? No, Jesus settled me. Jesus died on the cross.
14:23 And then when you want to overcome sin, always remember the suffering of Jesus Christ. Suffering. He suffered for you, he suffered for me.
14:33 And so whatever, we’re giving up withdrawal, you’re having a cigarette addiction, withdrawal. You’re having some booze, drunkenness, addiction, withdrawal. Always think the suffering with Jesus Christ.
14:45 I don’t want to sin anymore, Lord. I don’t sin against you. You gave me your life for me.
14:50 I will now use your blood and name to overcome this withdrawal. I will not buy the cigarette, I will not buy the drinking, I will not buy the booze. I will not be with people.
14:54 I will not go and mix around people. I will run away, flee from all semblance of evil. And I began to do all this so because I trust you, Lord Jesus, you are my savior, the husband of my soul.
15:11 You begin to think of Jesus and you begin to think of Jesus and talk about Jesus in the name of Jesus Christ to your heart and mind. They have no space now to think about whether you shrink or not, whether heal or not. You Jin Bridgehu After a couple of times you see all this happening.
15:26 Your faith automatic. Yeah, it shrinks now. Now those People in the congregation, those who do this prayer, they know now, now prayer will work because it has worked so many times already.
15:38 Brothers and sisters today, remember this. And then if you remain in me, my words remain in you. And my message lives in your heart.
15:48 Whatever you wish it was done unto you. Remember, the condition is this. Jesus Christ’s word must remain in us.
15:54 We must believe in Him. We must remain in Him. There are people praying, praying, praying.
15:59 But they’re doing whatever they want. And they don’t want to be in Jesus Christ. And when they have a problem, they run to Jesus Christ.
16:06 But they don’t obey Jesus Christ. They don’t want to love him. Don’t want to love him.
16:09 Loving him is from your heart. What is the love? Keeping his commandments. He said, if you love me, keep my commandments.
16:18 This is love we define in one scripture. This is love walking in my commandments. So if you do not walk in his commandments, you do not love Him? He says, if you do not love him, how can the prayer to him work? This is straightforward, but some other people don’t.
16:35 Listen to this number of people. I get shocked. Can they understand this condition? Because false teachers are telling, no, you can do anything.
16:44 Jesus loves you and all that. Yeah, Jesus loves you. You don’t love Jesus, so you do not get the power in.
16:50 Brothers and sisters, today, go and listen to this scripture, John 15:7 and Matthew 21:21, and pray and be a child of God in the power of Christ. Amen.
Listen to this audio recording, based on the Word of GOD, now!

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 9th March 2016. Guard Against Greed and be a servant. Guard against greed and be a servant.
00:11 We hope we can fear both today and in any case. As the Lord leads. We are not going to be anxious for anything.
00:17 Give thanks in all things. Not anxious for nothing. Be anxious for nothing.
00:17 Give thanks in all things. Be contentment. Contentment with godliness is great gain.
00:27 Brothers and sisters, our heart is treacherously wicked. You better understand it would have changed in many areas. As we begin to deal with our heart in line with the word of God, which is Jesus Christ.
00:40 And as we begin to deal with the Word, with the word of God, with our heart using the word of God, our heart will change many areas and continue to change from glory to glory now. But there are many areas still unchanged or even areas that are changed. The devil comes along and begins to tempt.
00:58 How are we tempted when we are drawn by our own heart’s desire? Now as I said, some translations will say when we are drawn by our own heart’s evil desire. No such thing. The actual original translation is when we are drawn by our own heart desire, then temptation comes.
01:16 So temptation just simply cannot come. It will come only when we are drawn by our own heart desire. But the problem here is we all know what our heart is desiring.
01:26 We can only recognize when the temptation begins to come. Because our heart is treacherously, desperately wicked. It’s cunning.
01:35 You will not know. In fact, God says, father God says hearts are desperately wicked or treacherously wicked. Who can know it? Who can know it? It’s telling us.
01:45 You son, you won’t know it. You child of God. You won’t know it.
01:50 Father. God will know it. Because it’s the spirit plane.
01:53 It’s in the spirit world. Whatsoever the heart is, our heart is in this belongs to the spirit plane. Whatever heart desiring and all this our father God will know.
02:03 And of course the devil will know. Because it is also is a spirit being. Now.
02:09 Now the demons will use that to tempt us. They’ll use the world. They use people of the world to tempt us.
02:18 They’ll use advertisement, they’ll use Hollywood, Bollywood, all these things. They’ll tempt us. And the temptation comes.
02:24 Because they already that familiar spirit who has been assigned to us. Whenever we are born, a demon is assigned by Satan to watch us. Now this demon is many years, many thousands of years old.
02:36 So it has gone through many lives. It has brought many lives to hell. So this demon is called A familiar spirit which knows all about us.
02:45 From the day I’m born, it’s following me. And remember it’s a spirit, it’s a spirit. The demon is a spirit.
02:52 So the world operates in the spirit world. So he has got facilities and strength that we don’t have. But now in Christ we have power over him.
03:01 We have power over our heart, we have power over our body. We have power over everything. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
03:08 So brothers and sisters here the title is guard against greed. Now greed. Sometimes people say greed.
03:16 Greed for oh very greed for money. Greed for money. It’s just not money.
03:21 Now others will say greed for food, gluttony, greedy. Just want to eat and eat because the body has fallen into a trap. What’s happened? What has happened nowadays because the world as Jesus Christ already said is ruled by Satan.
03:37 Satan is the ruler of the world or the God of this world. The Bible says. And Satan uses the world to destroy human beings soul.
03:48 His game is his entire objective is to take each one of us to hell. So this is your enemy. Jesus says your enemy Satan your enemy.
04:00 The devil walks about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. Swallow. So we have an enemy.
04:08 This Satan is not Jesus enemy. He’s no class to be enemy of Jesus Christ. No standing.
04:15 Jesus Christ is a creator. Satan is a created being as a Lucifer is a created as an angel of light. And then finally he rebels and is thrown down with billions of.
04:27 One third of the angels in heaven followed Satan and they became demons. And they are doing this now. They’ve been judged Satan and so don’t.
04:36 And somebody was telling me some time ago that people even felt Satan feel sorry for Satan because you feel compassion for others. Compassion for others. So they felt sorry for Satan.
04:48 No stop this. Satan is the enemy and he has been judged. He has already been judged.
04:54 That means decided. The sentence for him has been decided. He will be thrown into the lake of fire.
05:00 He and his demons will be thrown into the lake of fire. So we have been judged already. We still have a chance because we have not been judged yet.
05:03 So we have been given to now perform according to what Jesus Christ has put us on earth for. And as we do this by the power of Jesus Christ, by the name of Jesus Christ, by the blood of Jesus Christ which could only come from the suffering of Jesus Christ suffered and spilled blood for us. And then we use them and then we become disciples.
05:31 We become trained, more and more disciplined and then we do his will and then we become co Rulers with him. And then he comes before that he comes and takes us. We are part of his bride.
05:43 He is the husband of our souls. Friends, this is the fantastic thing. Do not throw away this like nothing.
05:50 I don’t want to think about it or not. No, you have eternity. Whatever we are fighting and whatever you are fighting and struggling on earth to gain in all earth, you will have to leave and go.
06:02 If you just go to funerals, you stand there and watch with sadness. People, of course, people who are left behind in that family are crying and heartbroken and all. But also remember the body in the coffin.
06:15 The body in the coffin. The soul has of course left. The soul has left.
06:19 The spirit being has left the body only there. Because all men are destined to die once and thereafter judgment. The Bible says it’s clear the soul has left.
06:32 So the body is there. And everybody think focus on the body. But actually the soul has left.
06:40 If you are in Christ, absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord. So we pray each of us are in Christ. And we go to Jesus Christ, brothers and sisters.
06:50 So just look at that. Everything left behind is left behind. You cannot take nothing.
06:56 That is why use whatever we have for the good. According to what the spirit of God is telling us. Use everything we have.
07:03 Not just money. Your talent, your skills, your energy, your time, your thinking, your speaking, everything use. Now supposing greed.
07:17 Greed is just want to collect more and more. If it’s money, you want to collect more and more. That means your hope is in the money.
07:24 The devil will come and steal that. And when that goes, what happens? What is your hope going to be? Your hope is in Christ. Means they cannot steal Christ.
07:34 Your hope in your money. Money can be stolen, but your hope is in Christ. Can the demons kill Christ? No go.
07:40 No way. So our hope is in Christ. And he can do anything and everything.
07:45 Because he is almighty God. Almighty God. Present everywhere, omniscient.
07:53 All knowledge, all thinking, all power. Omnipotent. All powerful.
07:58 No, all. And he is everywhere omniscient. Now brothers and sisters, today examine ourselves.
08:08 Are we greedy for something? Whether it’s food, whether for television. You may be greedy just watching TV after TV after tv, movie after movie after movie. Or some people are interested in games.
08:21 Football game after football game, cricket after cricket, wrestling after wrestling. There’s greed. Greed.
08:29 No. Your heart wants that on and on, more. Greed is simply want to have a lot of lots and lots and lots of the same thing.
08:37 Without any meaning, without any purpose. So just collecting. Are you greed for collector I’m a collector, you say A coin collector or a doll.
08:47 Dolls collector, whatever. Collecting more and more and more. Are you greedy there? So examine what your heart wants to possess and collect more and more and more.
09:00 So now the greed finally becomes an addiction. Greed, lust. It becomes a lust.
09:07 You cannot stop it. You need it. A spirit of lust.
09:10 Catch you lust for money, lust for things of the world, lust for movies, lust for television, lust for food, lust. Finally it becomes an addiction, it becomes a lust. And you cannot stop it.
09:22 Because your body is craving for it, the heart is craving for it. And when you don’t, you might have so much. And yet the next one you don’t collect.
09:31 You feel that you are lost. You feel you are lost. You need more greed.
09:36 Lust for drinks, for alcohol, for cigarettes. It’s a greed. The body wants more and more and more.
09:43 It becomes greed. So you say, God against all forms of greed. He says, watch out and guard yourself.
09:51 Luke 12:15. Watch out and guard yourself against every form of greed. For not even when one has an overflowing abundance does his life consist or nor is it derived from his possession.
10:04 Your existence is not derived, does not flow from your possession. Your life flows from Christ, from Jesus Christ, the creator of heaven and earth. So when you have this, you can overcome this greed, you can overcome this lust, you can overcome this addiction.
10:22 But you have to go through a withdrawal. You have to go through a withdrawal, trusting Christ. You will lock yourself in or you every time will turn away.
10:30 And whatever causes man to sin, cut it off. He says, if your right hand causes you to sin, cut your hand, he says, telling you how serious it is. The guy is causing you to sin, pluck your eye out.
10:42 Now, the thing is, it’s an example he’s giving. He’s not saying, I expect you to cut your hand all off. Now listen to this.
10:48 Don’t go around doing this. Some teachings are there. It’s not God wants you to be able to overcome sin.
10:55 He said, cut off the thing, but use it as a hand or eye to let you know the seriousness, to let us know the seriousness of this sin. So if your television is causing sin, you cannot stop, unplug the television, finish, give it away, put it away in somebody else has stopped for a while, for two, three weeks. And force yourself to.
11:17 No television. If your thing is, let’s say, collecting dolls, dolls stop buying. Don’t go near there.
11:25 Get rid of all the toys, get away all the dolls. If it is wrestling after wrestling, you got video after video on this. Get rid of all the videos, why you know your soul has been stolen already.
11:39 Overcome this, overcome, brothers and sisters. Greed is a killer. It kills our soul.
11:46 It kills our existence on earth. It kills us from doing the work of God which will stand for eternity. We cannot produce fruits, we cannot produce, produce things that can last for eternity.
12:02 All our works will be destroyed because these are works of the devil. So therefore, anything that catches us, anything that has a form of a greed, a lust is growing. You cut it off in the name of Jesus Christ.
12:15 You begin to think about it, you begin to repent, you begin to confess, you begin to tell another disciple, help me, I have this problem. First, the act of humility. Act of humility.
12:27 Humility is the most important thing in Christ. And then in act of humility, everything will come. That’s why the next word is we are trying to deal with be a servant, lead by you being a servant.
12:40 He says in Matthew 20:26, he said, it is not this way among you, because the Gentiles will lord over the others. Lording over the others. Jesus Christ telling, don’t this be your way.
12:52 Don’t be lording over people. You are the boss. Oh, you are the pastor, so you are the boss.
12:58 Yes. Everybody will respect you or something because you are serving them. Or if you are lording over them, they will also get fed up eventually.
13:06 Now, if they do not know any better because they illiterate or do not know the word of God, they will shout out to you or bow to you and say, yeah, you are the greatest and all that, but your soul will be lost. Jesus will punish you for this kind of things. First, humble yourself now.
13:22 He says, but whoever wishes to become great among you shall be your servant. So if any one of us, pastors, servants, elders, want to be great in the eyes of God, we shall be the servant of all. Whoever wishes to be first among you shall be your slave.
13:40 He says, willing and humble. Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served by, but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many the paying the price to set them free from the penalty of sin. Brothers and sisters, Jesus did not come to be served, but to serve.
13:59 And we are supposed to be like Jesus. So we learn to serve each of the. In the congregation of the minister, I say, look, you have to serve.
14:07 You don’t come to congregation to be served, you come to serve. And as each one serves, everybody is settled. Why everyone coming with the attitude of serving others, thinking of others, they come to serve.
14:20 When they begin to Serve. Each one is serving. Everyone is served already.
14:25 Everyone is helped. Not only in just the food they bring, in the health situation, the soul situation. First in the spirit situation, to give them peace, joy, righteousness, to make sure they’re not oppressed, depressed, no sin issue.
14:39 So the serving people to make them out of bondages, out of captivity. We have to serve so humble ourselves to be servant. If you want to be great, you have to be a servant.
14:51 The, the spirit world is the Jesus world is entirely upside down than the world, you know, the world you got to be boss, put on an act, put on a jacket and three piece suit and command this and command that. But in the spirit world, in where Jesus had decided, that is how the devil got duped. The devil thought we killed Jesus off, but they didn’t know the plan of God is opposite what the world will think, what the devil thinks.
15:17 By dying, Jesus gives life to all. Jesus gets life for himself. And Jesus Christ gives life to all by dying.
15:26 But Satan thought by killing him off, it’s over, they win. It’s by dying Jesus won. Can you imagine? This is how it was.
15:34 By dying Jesus Christ wins for us, we by serving. We win by serving. By being a slave, humble to all, thinking of others, all the time thinking of others.
15:45 You see your life prosper more and more. By caring for others, you see your life prosper more and more. But if you keep on caring for yourself, no, I must do for myself.
15:54 That is before we came to Jesus Christ. Why? We have no protector, we have nothing. We didn’t know the Creator.
16:00 So we are looking for the Creator to help. We are looking for ourselves to help ourselves. And there will be false logic to say God only helps those who help themselves.
16:09 That’s a lie of the devil. God helps those who go to him, Jesus helps those who go to him. If we can help ourselves, then you don’t need Jesus, isn’t it? We need Jesus.
16:20 So the rule of God only helps those who help themselves is a false thing. The doctrine of demons. So we remember.
16:28 To serve, to be great, to be successful in life, to be blessed in life. You think of serving all the time to others. Help them, care for them and in the process Jesus will take care of you.
16:40 So to be the greatest among you, first among you must be a slave. Brothers and sisters, now let’s do this. To prosper in life, you be a servant.
16:50 You be a servant and get rid of any form of greed and lust. In Jesus Christ’s name I pray. Amen.
