13. Practice secret disciplines (giving, praying, fasting) —Matthew 6:1-18 Matthew 6:1-18 Amplified Bible (AMP)
Giving to the Poor and Prayer 1 “Be [very] careful not to do your [a]good deeds publicly, to be seen by men; otherwise you will have no reward [prepared and awaiting you] with your Father who is in heaven. 2 “So whenever you give to the poor and do acts of kindness, do not blow a trumpet before you [to advertise it], as the hypocrites do [like actors acting out a role] in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be honored and recognized and praised by men. I assure you and most solemnly say to you, they [already] have their reward in full.
3 But when you give to the poor and do acts of kindness, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing [give in complete secrecy],
4 so that your charitable acts will be done in secret; and your Father who sees [what is done] in secret will reward you. 5 “Also, when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites; for they love to pray [publicly] standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets so that they may be seen by men. I assure you and most solemnly say to you, they [already] have their reward in full.
6 But when you pray, go into your most private room, close the door and pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees [what is done] in secret will reward you. 7 “And when you pray, do not use meaningless repetition as the Gentiles do, for they think they will be heard because of their many words.
8 So do not be like them [praying as they do]; for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him. 9 “Pray, then, [b]in this way: ‘Our Father who is in heaven, [c]Hallowed be Your name. 10 ‘[d]Your kingdom come, Your [e]will be done On earth as it is in heaven. 11 ‘Give us this day our [f]daily bread. 12 ‘And forgive us our [g]debts, as we have forgiven our debtors [letting go of both the wrong and the resentment]. 13 ‘And do not [h]lead us into temptation, but deliver us from [i]evil. [j][For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.]’ 14 For if you forgive [k]others their trespasses [their reckless and willful sins], your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
15 But if you do not forgive others [nurturing your hurt and anger with the result that it interferes with your relationship with God], then your Father will not forgive your trespasses. Fasting, The True Treasure, Wealth (Mammon) 16 “And whenever you are fasting, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites, for they put on a sad and dismal face [like actors, discoloring their faces with ashes or dirt] so that their fasting may be seen by men. I assure you and most solemnly say to you, they [already] have their reward in full.
17 But when you fast, put oil on your head [as you normally would to groom your hair] and wash your face
18 so that your fasting will not be noticed by people, but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees [what is done] in secret will reward you.

00:01 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily, 26 February 2016 Practice secret disciplines. Praying and fasting. Praying and fasting.
00:02 Brothers and sisters, yesterday we did giving to the poor and to give in secret, not like the Gentiles do, and not with selfish motives and all that. Brothers and sisters, today we are talking about praying and fasting in secret. Father, God wants us to do it secret.
00:31 Now let’s read that. That is from verse 5 Matthew 26, Matthew 6, Matthew 6, 5. Also, when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites.
00:47 For they pray not just the Gentiles, not just unbelievers. Do not be like the hypocrites. So there are hypocrites within the church or within the children of God.
00:59 Do not also, when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray publicly standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets so that they may be seen by men. I assure you and most solemnly say to you, they already have their reward in full. When you pray, go into your most private room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is in secret.
01:24 And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you, will reward you. And when you pray, do not use meaningless repetition as the Gentiles do, for they think they will be hurt because of their many words. So do not be like them, praying as they do.
01:42 For your Father knows what you need before you ask him. Brothers and sisters, this is a fantastic statement. It is a very important statement because many people don’t know, and they do this, and some people actually practice this hypocritical thing.
01:59 They begin to pray. I’ll pray for you, brother. I’ll pray for you.
02:01 I prayed for you, sister. I prayed for you. You lose your reward.
02:06 Don’t go around telling people that you prayed for somebody, because why are you telling people you prayed for somebody now? Why are you telling somebody? Our heart, our heart, our problem is our desperately wicked, righteously wicked heart. Our heart wants recognition. That’s why I prayed for you, brother.
02:27 Don’t worry, brother, you’ve done this. You’re going through this. I prayed for you.
02:31 We prayed for you. Is that necessary? Not necessary. If you pray, keep quiet now.
02:39 Unless in genuinity, in sincerity, you know, you need to encourage this person and say, then you see a group, don’t take yourself. I prayed for you. The church is praying for you, brother.
02:53 The church is praying for you, sister. That means you put a group so that you dilute your own importance. You dilute your own importance.
03:05 Why? We do not want you to lose your reward here. We don’t want you to lose your reward here. Because Jesus Christ says, then you pray like hypocrite.
03:13 You stand in the street corners and pray. And then you go and tell people you prayed and all that you already got your reward. Your reward is right.
03:21 Somebody says, thank you, isn’t it? Or somebody says, oh, they’re praying for me. Put a group, forget about yourself. Thereby the whole thing in Christ is denying ourselves and picking the cross, picking up our cross, denying ourselves.
03:35 Do not put our because our heart like this. It wants to be very important. And that is a demonic thing.
03:42 The devil is always talking to our heart. Our heart to become more and more and more important. We are more and more nothing.
03:51 The most lowest of us all here will be the highest in heaven. So look at this again. Look at this again.
03:59 So when you need to pray, somebody say, please pray for me. You see? Yes, thank Jesus Christ. But brother sister will teach you to pray even.
04:08 Why Jesus wants you to pray. He is your father. He wants you to pray.
04:11 He wants you to come to him. Don’t you think that is normal? As I repeatedly say that if a person has got few children, doesn’t he want you children to come talk to him? Not just one child, representing the whole lot. This is what parliament is.
04:29 One person is a congressman. And everybody all sit quiet. And the congressman comes reports or the parliamentarian comes a report.
04:37 Member of Parliament. No, he wants a relationship. If your father means he wants you to talk to him.
04:44 And now this question of secret room business. Now, most private room. Most private room.
04:49 Of course, it can be anywhere. Let us say you are among people. Most private room will be in your heart.
04:54 You can pray in your heart. Whatever you ask or think more than that will be done unto you. Which is according to his word.
04:56 Whatever you ask or think, think whatever you ask or think in line with his word. More than that he’ll blunt for you because he’s saying what? The Father knows what you need before you ask him. He knows.
05:14 Now your Father knows what you need before you ask him, but then he give it to you. Now that is why there’s another verse which says, if your earthly father, if your earthly fathers were wicked, he says, if their son asks for fish, will you give them a snake? If the earthly father gives you, if you ask the earthly Father and he says earthly fathers are wicked, if you ask the earthly father for bread, will he give a stone? No. Here.
05:44 How Much more. Your heavenly Father, who is holy, who is perfect, knows your need before you ask him, it will be done. This the faith we must come to, the faith we must come to is this.
05:54 Now the other thing is they call for corporate place. Now, this one is a meaningless repetition. Repeat and repeat and repeat and repeat.
06:02 Every religion does this. They have beads. All religions have beads.
06:07 In Jesus Christ there are no beads. There are no beads. Otherwise they’ll keep on hanging on to the beads for strength, for faith.
06:15 Your faith. You will not know. Without you realizing, your heart and mind will be drawn into the beads.
06:22 Jesus Christ says, I am Spirit, God is spirit. Worship me in spirit and in truth. But what happens if you keep on doing the beast business? And beads after beads after beast, your heart and mind unwittingly, unknowingly, undiscerningly will begin to go.
06:38 Faith in beasts. So much so people hang these beasts in the cars. All religious, I’m talking about, they hang in the beast, in their cars.
06:44 And all because the things are beastful. Protect them. Pity.
06:48 But that is how they’ve been duped or they’ve been taught or misunderstood or whatever. Those of you listening today, worship me. Heaven, Spirit and end Truth.
06:59 When you command the demon to go in the name of Jesus Christ, he will go. Now. Spirit of accident, if you are concerned of accident, spirit of accident, I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to get out in the name of Jesus Christ.
07:10 And not to return. But at the same time, do not give the devil a foothold. Do not give the devil a foothold.
07:16 How do we give the devil a foothold? By allowing to follow the temptation. How does temptation come when we are drawn by our own heart desire? Temptation comes. When temptation is full blown, sin comes.
07:29 When sin is full blown blown, death comes. This is very clear. It’s very clear in James.
07:34 So how does temptation come? Temptation comes like that. We know how temptation comes. The devil talks to your heart.
07:41 But then the devil can only talk to your heart. When your heart is drawn by your own heart desire. It’s not.
07:47 Some translation will say, by your own heart’s evil desire. It’s not true. By your own heart desire, the devil will come talk to you.
07:55 Therefore we want God’s desire in our hearts. How does your own heart desire can end up in this? Let us say you’re looking for I must do medicine. I must do medicine.
08:07 I don’t have money. I must do medicine, my son. Must do medicine, must do medicine, must do medicine, must do.
08:13 And you don’t even have $20,000. This whole thing costs a few hundred thousand dollars. And the child couldn’t get a scholarship because some points are missing or some conditions in the country or whatever the economy couldn’t get.
08:25 But I must do, I must do. And then before you know it, you end up going, borrowing, borrowing, boring. You end up being sometimes end up stealing, end up borrowing and not able to pay, don’t pay all these things together.
08:37 And the sun finally may or may not even complete. Actually, that is why you need God’s desire. Now I must have a house, I must have rent a car.
08:46 And then a bank clerk. Finally he may do something with a check. Or you are in a company working for.
08:52 And you may do something with a petty cash or something because drawn by your own desire. What is so evil about wanting to do a big degree or wanting to have a house. But you become an obsession, you know, you say, Lord, I’ll be content with food and clothing.
09:10 Jesus Christ commands us to be content with food and clothing. Like that, content. But he says contentment with godliness, great gain, step by step.
09:20 Can you imagine? Your health will be good, things will come to you. He will take care of you in contentment, you’ll grow. I’ve seen this for many, many, many people at the same time.
09:31 Many don’t follow. But the road is narrow. Road is narrow.
09:35 And difficult is the way brothers and sisters today remember this me in English. Repetition, repeat, repeat. Why he says that for the Gentiles, for the unbelievers think they will be hurt because of their many words, God.
09:48 You think God cannot hear. But if you’re not born of the Spirit, you cannot know in your spirit, you will not know in your spirit that father God actually hears your prayer. That Jesus Christ actually hears a prayer.
09:59 So you pray blindly. You pray wanting something you want volition, really you want. But unless you’re born of the Spirit, you will not know inside you that your prayer actually connecting with God.
10:11 You will not know. Some hazy thing will happen and you will begin to go for it. Go for it, go for it.
10:18 Repeat and repeat and repeat. But if you know, even one single line of prayer would be enough, even what you think will be enough. Because you say, I accept all Jesus Christ because your will for me is the best.
10:30 The other thing, people can’t accept what Jesus Christ is saying. Why they do not know or do not believe in their heart that Jesus Christ will do the best for you. Best, best for you.
10:42 And then right now they have thought called corporate prayers. What happens now? This happened in America. But now they all want some people calling for corporate prayer and fasting so that they get the right politician as a president.
10:57 Brothers and sisters, Jesus Christ, I already dealt this before. Jesus Christ clearly said, my kingdom is not of this world. My kingdom is not of this world.
11:06 This corporate prayer and fasting is in the Old Testament whereby he says, if people will turn from the wicked ways by fasting, I will answer them and then heal their land. First of all, in Jesus Christ, we are a holy nation. We are not an earthly nation.
11:27 Our nation is not here. We are citizens of heaven. But what do they do, these people, unknowingly or for their own benefit? They begin to get a lot of people to pray for something.
11:38 And what they then don’t do is do not check year by year. When you got a whole lot of Christians to pray or fast, did it work? Did it work? They won’t check that. They won’t put the statistics for that.
11:52 You find that actually many countries, these Christians who are misled call people all their own agenda. You know, they want to look good. They want to look good to the, to the, to the government of the land or to other people.
12:07 We are praying for this country. We are praying. They want to look good.
12:10 So remember some of the leaders calling for corporate prayer also, they themselves may want to look good. We don’t know all this, of course, they may be sincere and actually sincerely wrong. There are people who are sincere but sincerely wrong.
12:23 So they begin to get people all together pray. But then they are not going to check every year. Now you as a believer of Christ, a disciple of Jesus Christ, you better ask yourself, don’t listen to me.
12:35 You ask yourself. Because God has given us a sound mind. Ask yourself and see whether this is true.
12:43 Now remember, our land is a holy nation. We are going to pray for people to be saved, to be got out of their blindness, get out of their misery, send the captives free. We are going to pray for casting out evil spirits, teaching people there are so many things to do.
13:01 It’s a very busy day actually for me. It’s busy day for disciples. It’s a very busy day daily.
13:07 So many things to do. Now, brothers and sisters, so don’t get caught in all this. The Father God will need what you need before you ask him.
13:15 He knows already in verse eight. So let us now do that. Now the same thing with the fasting.
13:23 Fasting through treasure and wealth. 16 it says, Whenever you’re fasting, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites, for they put on A sad and dismal face. Like actors discolouring their faces with ashes or dirt so that their fasting may be seen by men.
13:39 I assure you and most solemnly say to you, they already have their reward in full. I am fasting today. I’m fasting today.
13:47 Your fasting keeps quiet. Keep quiet. Command your heart to shut up because you don’t want people to know why you want.
13:53 That’s your intention. But finally people know. Okay, that’s it.
13:57 It’s okay. But your intention should be clear. That’s what God goes by, intention.
14:02 Your intention is you want to fast in secret. If people know, people ask. Then suppose you’re sitting there for some meeting or some lunch.
14:09 Then they went for lunch, brought food. Then you can say, among Christians, today, I’m fasting. But your intention must be clear.
14:16 Your heart is not seeking, oh, I’m fasting. That is intentional. So you have to say you’re fasting because somebody offering you food so you don’t offend them.
14:25 That’s okay. That’s good. Tell them.
14:27 So therefore, everything God wants us to do in secret and we need to tell, we will tell. But that is told in the spirit of humility and not trying to get the reward for trying to get people to look at you and say you are fasting or whatever. Brothers and sisters, remember.
14:41 Then he said, put oil on your head as you normally would, to groom your hands, wash your face, so that your fasting will not be noticed by people. It doesn’t want us to be noticed. But by your father who is in secret, and your father who sees in secret will reward you.
14:55 Now this statement, your father who is in secret, your father who is in secret. Can you imagine? And your father who sees in secret will reward you. Who is in secret means he is in the most holy place.
15:08 He is in the fact. You have to see Kim diligently to find him. Because he is in secret.
15:08 He is in a secret place. He is not available to everyone. He is only available to those who want him.
15:22 That’s why the word is, your father who is in secret, and your father who sees in secret will reward you. Brothers and sisters, today, same thing. So why do we fast in the New Testament? It’s not the Old Testament.
15:36 People think you fast and God will do something. It is not like that anymore. We are children of God.
15:41 Jesus Christ is inside you. Jesus Christ inside you. So your father was in secret.
15:47 Now Jesus Christ, also your father, he’s inside us. So now, and we are in Jesus Christ. So we are already inside there.
15:56 So we are not going to look for him in a secret place. He is inside me. So, brothers and sisters, today you fast so that your character will change.
16:05 You will overcome sin, you will overcome temptations. Your heart will change. You’ll become more and more like Christ.
16:11 That’s why you fast to kill the flesh, to kill your body’s desire, to deny yourself, become the cross. That’s why you fast. You fast for that reason.
16:18 You don’t fast to get reward from God. He’s already promised that whatever your needs will be settled. And he sees us through.
16:26 His promises are yes and yes and amen. So do not fast to get something from Jesus Christ. Do you remember? Do you fast to go get something from your earthly father? No.
16:36 You ask him in faith. You ask Him. But what is not amiss? Ask him what is right.
16:42 He will give it to you. What is wrong for you, what can damage you. He won’t give it to you.
16:45 Brother and sisters, today remember, Jesus is in you. You are in Jesus Christ. You are a holy priest.
16:52 Let’s go and be a holy priest. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 11 October 2015 titled Worry Leaves. High blood pressure follows. Worry leaves.
00:10 High blood pressure follows. Brothers and sisters, before we start, I remind myself for myself, God gives grace to the humble, but he opposes a proud. So in the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to be humble even in this teaching.
00:27 To know. I do not know the whole thing. The Word of God says in 1 Corinthians 8, 2, if you think you know something, you do not yet know anything as you ought to know.
00:39 So I tell myself, in the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to know that I do not know anything as I ought to know. In the name of Jesus Christ also I command my heart to know that if I think that I am something, when I am nothing, I deceive myself. In the name of Jesus Christ, I will love all because I want to be sons of the most High God.
01:01 You have to love even your enemies. I want to. I command my heart and mind to love all.
01:06 Today I get up in the morning with Jesus Christ. The power of Jesus Christ to know that I will love all and I am willing to do his will here, that is to love all, care for all, and he will settle all my matters. And this has been going on for me for 20 years.
01:22 Why he settles my matters. Brothers and sisters, today the worry leaves high blood pressure follows. Even here.
01:30 Whatever I say, there will always be a variance somewhere. It is not an absolute because we are talking, researching science and whatnot. Brothers and sisters.
01:41 Today, many researchers, particularly Christian researchers, have now found that high blood pressure, in fact 90% of all illnesses, about 90% is caused by spiritual roots. The way we think, the way we act, and this has caused it, the way we think, particularly spiritual roots. And then because the way we think causes us the way we feel.
02:10 And our problems start now. The remaining 10%, of course, they are also real. It’s the food we eat, like exercise or unable to exercise, the EMF in the surroundings, the electric, the cellular phones, you know, and then the company we keep.
02:30 Then the other thing is lack of self control. So we eat and eat and eat. Going to fast food shops all the time, drinking these carbonated drinks with sugar and whatnot, and this all goes on.
02:42 So there are other causes too. But 90%, they found, is caused by spiritual roots. So do not take this as absolute truth, but there are always spiritual roots because we are never free from some of the spiritual roots.
02:55 Isn’t it, brothers and sisters so therefore first look at the spiritual root. Then also you have to look at the other 10%, other roots of causes. Now, high blood pressure, generally they found, has been caused.
03:09 I’m talking about onset of high blood pressure. Generally we found people who are worrying stress. Stress is of course worry, anger, unforgiveness and anxiety causing high blood pressure.
03:25 They found this by and large. So what do we do? But also remember, high blood pressure can also be caused because of diabetes and every other thing that’s going on in your life. So therefore, but even that, even with diabetes, we will come to that one of the days in Jesus Christ’s name.
03:41 Because I’m still waiting on the Lord and still studying things, meditating about things and how to put it and how can be a benefit to all of us in Jesus Christ’s name on all areas. All areas, brothers and sisters, because I’m not telling, I’m exempt from this in the name of Jesus Christ today. Brothers and sisters, let’s remember one thing.
04:02 In Matthew 6:34. Do not worry about tomorrow. This is Jesus Christ, the husband of your soul, the king of Kings, the son of the living God, who died for you, who suffered for you and me, and rose again.
04:16 Not just suffered. And he’s not on the cross anymore. He rose again and is seated at the right hand side of Father God.
04:22 And we are in him and he is in earth. This is the miracle of the salvation. And now we must be converted in my heart and mind by forming Christ in our heart.
04:34 In Jesus name I pray. Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. I’m reading from the amplified.
04:36 Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough worries of its own. Now can you imagine? Jesus Christ is telling us to the tomorrow.
04:54 The tomorrow is like alive, you know, like alive. So tomorrow worries about itself. Like tomorrow.
05:02 Tomorrow worries about itself. Now he’s telling you, you don’t worry about tomorrow. You are my children.
05:07 You don’t worry about tomorrow. Tomorrow worries about itself. Each day has enough trouble its own.
05:12 So you focus daily. Now even daily worrying is first of all is sin. Because it simply means we do not trust what Jesus Christ has promised us.
05:24 All his promises are true. What he promised us. He will never leave you or forsake you.
05:31 Now if you worry about tomorrow, you have now your heart. Now you’re made of three parts. You’re made of three parts.
05:36 Spirit, soul and body in the heart. And the mind is in the soul. Now in our spirit, as now Jesus Christ has come and The Holy Spirit is there.
05:46 Our spirit has been given life, but our heart and mind are still many areas not converted. So in our heart, our heart, which is structurally wicked, God has clearly said does not trust Jesus Christ. So we must now make it trust Jesus Christ.
06:05 How? By renewing in the spirit of your mind. God says, renew in the spirit of your mind. Just not intellectually understanding things, but must be renewed in the spirit of your mind.
06:16 How? In the name of Jesus Christ. Again we got prayers. So now, first of all, I have personally seen in the last 20 years of ministry, you know, people who come with high blood pressure and all kinds of things.
06:33 Soon after, two, three months later, there’s no more high blood pressure. They’re normal. Because why? Every day the teachings are given through.
06:43 Every day they are made to call Jesus Christ. Every day they pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Every day they command the heart and mind not to worry.
06:50 And all that. And step by step, all this goes. Brothers and sisters, first of all, God, Jesus Christ, commands you.
06:58 The husband of your soul tells you, do not worry about tomorrow. Now, if you do worry, that is sin. What is sin? Because we don’t trust him.
07:05 Which part of you doesn’t trust him? Our hearts don’t trust him. This is where the problem is. So now we must command our heart.
07:11 In the name of Jesus Christ. I command my heart and mind not to worry about tomorrow. Why? In the name of Jesus Christ.
07:19 Jesus said he will never leave me or forsake me. And he will always provide for me. He will provide for me for all my needs, all my needs are always settled in the name of Jesus Christ.
07:31 So therefore, I command my heart and mind not to crave for things that are of the worldly ways. Worldly ways, Things for which I cannot afford. I will let it go in the name of Jesus Christ.
07:42 I will let it go in the name of Jesus Christ. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to know once and for all, all my needs are always provided. And the peace of God I will seek the kingdom of God, which is righteousness, peace and joy.
07:47 In the name of Jesus Christ. The kingdom of God is a condition of my soul. In the name of Jesus Christ.
08:08 I know this. So in the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to seek the kingdom of God, which is righteousness, peace and joy. Righteousness comes from the blood of Jesus Christ.
08:17 It washes away my unrighteousness. It washes away my sins. In the name of Jesus Christ.
08:21 In the name of Jesus Christ. I Command my heart and mind to know that the Prince of peace is the husband of my soul. So I receive peace.
08:31 I receive peace in the name of Jesus Christ and joy. I will get it by worshipping Jesus Christ, by singing songs to him. I will sing melody to him, make melodies in my heart for him.
08:42 And this peace will come, joy will come in the name of Jesus Christ. So, brother and sister, today we have to do this regularly. Now also remember, whatever this, especially when you have high blood pressure, without anything else, clearly the cause is this.
08:58 So therefore do this daily, as often as possible. Also go and get the segment on the breath of God. The breath of God.
09:07 And begin to breathe. The breath of God. The breath of God will bring you the peace, release and all that.
09:13 From time to time there is another segment which says that kill anxiety before anxiety kills you. Kill anxiety before anxiety kills you. Now brothers and sisters, these are all real.
09:28 Now can you imagine one remarkable scripture in Luke 12, 25 and 26, Luke 5, 12, 25 and 26, I’m reading from the Catholic version. And any of you, by worrying, can any of you, by worrying, add a single hour to your span of life? This is Jesus Christ asking us, hey, listen children, can any of you, by worrying, add a single hour to your span of life? Can you get one hour more life just because you worry about it? Surely we cannot, in fact we shorten our life by worrying about it. So what Jesus is saying that in fact 26, he says even a much more remarkable thing.
10:10 If then you’re not able to do so small a thing as that, why do you worry about the rest? Our husband of our soul telling us, look here, children, I died for you on the cross. I rose for you. I gave you my power to cast out evil spirit.
10:26 Cast out spirit of fear. In the name of Jesus Christ, command every spirit of fear to get out. In the name of Jesus Christ.
10:32 And in the name of Jesus Christ, I receive the peace and do the breath of God. And he is asking us if. Then if you’re not able to add a single hour to your span of life, why are you? And why? If you are not able to add a single hour to your span of life, and you’re not able to do such a small thing like that, can he see, you know, Jesus is saying adding an hour extra to our life is such a small thing and you cannot do, why do you worry about the rest? Why do you worry about the rest? What a remarkable statement.
11:05 In the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind not to worry about anything anymore because I cannot even add a single hour to my life by worrying. In fact, by worrying I will damage myself. My health will go.
11:21 Therefore, in the name of Jesus Christ, I am warned and command my heart and mind to let go of all worries in Jesus name and breathe the breath of God in the name of Jesus Christ. So brothers and sisters, today, what a wonderful statement Jesus has given us. You can’t even do such a small thing like that.
11:37 Why do you worry now? Brothers and sisters, these things are real. These things are real. There are ministries all over the world who are doing researches and researching and all that.
11:48 And they find all this. The worry, worry releases cortisol and other deaths, troublesome stress, worry, anxiety, fear releases all these hormones that are necessary for a while but they keep on releasing because you keep on worrying. These things now damage every cell in your body because these are steroid type of hormones release and they only release when trouble.
12:12 They are supposed to help you in trouble but you keep on having worry, worry, worry. They keep on flushing every cell in your body like this. And then you are damaged.
12:21 Now then there are other areas because there are other. When you feel peace and joy, there are other hormones that are released. Serotonin, good, nice, feel good factor hormone when you have peace.
12:37 So brothers and sisters, it’s all been set in situations that works like this. Now if you have other conditions that have caused high blood pressure, now remember brothers and sisters, we have to even overcome that in the name of Jesus Christ. If we want to have a good life on earth in the name of Jesus Christ, we have to overcome all.
12:57 Only overcomers in the name of Jesus Christ can survive. We cannot overcome by ourselves that we must understand fallen nature. Man cannot overcome by himself because there is another player on earth called Satan.
13:10 In John 10:10 Jesus says Satan came to steal, kill and destroy. He calls him the thief There Satan came to steal, kill and destroy. But I have come to give you life, life more abundantly.
13:21 So we have to use his name because his name is above all names. His blood is powerful, burns, demons. In the name of Jesus Christ.
13:28 The blood of Jesus Christ. So it is for us to take and use it. Even those of you may be in bed and troubled and can’t speak out, think about these things.
13:39 Listen to this morning segment and begin to meditate on the word of God. Meditate on the word of God because I too am a human being. I’m just a man like you.
13:51 It’s just that he’s shown me some things and now I’m commanded to teach others, show others what it is, and that’s all. So focus on Jesus Christ. Brothers and sisters, brothers and sisters, you have a great work, you have a great life.
14:03 Tell others about all this and then they too will be set free. How many people do you know who have high blood pressure? Send them these segments. Send them the segments and let them if they want, look, we will love.
14:18 We are supposed to love even our enemies, even my enemy. I must love to be sons of the Most High God. So in the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to love my enemies and to forgive everybody.
14:28 In the name of Jesus Christ, command my heart and mind. Forgive everything. Now brothers and sisters, this forgiveness.
14:34 There are also forgiveness segments there. Go back if you’re worrying something. Now you focus on the worry.
14:40 You look at the worry. What are you worrying about? And then you find that the worry is actually useless. When Jesus says this small thing, you can’t even increase your life by one hour.
14:49 Why are you bothered to worry about rest? And then you begin to remind yourself. And then remember the worry is causing you harm. So you cast it out in the name of Jesus Christ.
14:57 So you have to meditate on this. When worry comes, don’t continue contemplating on the worry. You start, begin to listen to these kind of segments and begin to look at the scriptures and begin to meditate on the words of Jesus Christ and in the words in the Bible.
15:11 And you begin to get free from this. And when you get free from this, day by day, you did this brother. And you do what you can.
15:19 Do a test. Take the simple blood pressure meters. Nowadays under our ringgit you get or under the ringgit.
15:24 And some you know, wherever you are, you’re listening to this. Some of you are all over the place. In Vietnam and Cambodia, in India and I don’t know where else, in Australia and all you buy a blood pressure meter.
15:36 And then you begin when worrying time you see your pressure. And then after this you’re casting out in the name of Jesus Christ and receiving the peace of Christ and all. And you measure the blood pressure and see it would have dropped.
15:48 When you get the peace of God, do the breath of God. And when you measure the pressure, the pressure will be normalizing and it’s dropping. Now you know you got hope.
15:54 Now you know you can do this. And it works. In the name of Jesus Christ, brothers and sisters, it works.
16:02 The people in the congregation who come with it, finally, all blood pressure, all gone, finished. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray today that yout will do and help others. Let others know.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, Today the power of Christ Daily 10th of October 2015 titled Fallen Angels reproduced Nephilims, also giants. Nephilims stroke giants, Fallen angels reproduced or procreated Nephilims who are actually giants. Brothers and sisters, this is an important topic.
00:23 But before we get into that, we must remind ourselves. Jesus said he will never leave or forsake us so we don’t have to be afraid of all these. I have to counsel you from the whole Word of God.
00:36 Whatever the Lord I believe is leading me to do, I will then teach you from the Bible. I will show scriptures. And when I am not sure, I will also tell you.
00:43 I am not sure what the theologians are saying. I also say that so that everybody understands. And I know what I know.
00:51 I know. I don’t know if I think I know something. I do not know anything as I ought to know as yet.
00:58 It’s very important scripture for me. And if I think I’m something when I’m nothing, I deceive myself. And then I also tell myself more grace only comes when I’m humble.
01:10 Grace is God gives grace. And if I’m proud, He’ll oppose me. I don’t want God opposing me in James 4, six brothers and sisters and I have to examine myself and all that.
01:20 Now I pray you also do this because it will keep us safe. So these fallen angels reproducing or procreating Nephilims also the simple word is giants. Now in Genesis 6, 4, the verse says, don’t be afraid.
01:34 So don’t be afraid. This all will happen. Jesus will be with us all the time.
01:39 But you don’t leave Jesus. Now when he says, I will never leave you or forsake you, he’s still given me a will. I can still reject Jesus and walk away.
01:49 That is out my own doing. Then I suffer now, of course, because I suffered so much. It’s very clear in me that I seek Him.
01:56 Anything I do, I’ll seek His Word because it’s a protection for me. It’s a prescription for me. You too, please take the stand.
02:03 Turn to Jesus for everything first. What does His Word say? Many people are suffering because they don’t check what God’s Word says. And if you have problem checking what God’s Word says, just go to the Internet search and put there whatever you want.
02:17 Some scriptures will come or get to the grace of life. Somebody will want to help you because they suffered. They don’t want anybody else suffering.
02:26 And they’re now doing it unto the Lord. They don’t expect anything from you except that you follow Jesus. Brothers and Sisters Today is a very interesting, important title.
02:36 It explains a lot of things, actually, when especially we’re talking about aliens. It explains all that. Now, Genesis 6, 4 says the Nephilim.
02:45 This I’m reading from the Catholic edition the the Nephilim were on earth in those days and also afterward, when the sons of God went into the daughters of humans and bore children to them. That means the daughters of humans bore children to them. These were the heroes that were of old, warriors of renown.
03:06 Now in Amphi 564 says there were Nephilim, men of stature, notorious men on the earth in those days and also afterwards. Now the whole of Genesis 6:1:2 simply reads like this mankind corruption of mankind title. Now, it happened when men began to multiply on the face of the land and the daughters were born to them.
03:28 That the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful and desirable, and they took wives for themselves, whomever they chose and desired, whoever they chose and desires. These sons of God, actually angels, angels were fallen in this case, fallen because they refusing to obey God. They rebelled against God.
03:52 God told, don’t do this, but they want to go and do this. So sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful and desirable, and they took wives for themselves, whom they chose and desired. Whomever they chose and desired.
04:05 It’s rape. It’s a kidnap and rape. That’s it.
04:08 So these evil spirits, evil fallen angels, are still doing this? Sometimes now we do not know. We do not know so many things. But we know one thing, what God said in that, that they were men of stature, notorious men on the earth in those days and also afterwards.
04:29 Who are these Nephilims? They’re giants. The giant. Remember David fought Goliath, a giant.
04:36 So people used to laugh. I got giants. Look, the Bible has said, and now archaeologists are finding giant skeletons.
04:45 But God has said what he said there were these giants, these Nephilims. In fact, some Hebrew translation says Nephilim means rejects. They reject because their spirit, angels, fallen angels, had gone and had sexual intercourse with the daughters of human beings, took whichever daughter they want, whichever women they want, and produce children from them.
05:09 And these children were called Nephilims and they’re giants. And God says they were before the flood and afterwards. Now.
05:18 But we are not going to be afraid of all this now because we turn to Jesus Christ, everything. Jesus Christ will protect you. You got power over evil spirit.
05:23 You got power over Fallen angels. You got power over the devil in the name of Jesus Christ. That is why Jesus told us, those who believe will cast out evil spirits in my name.
05:36 And you command your heart and mind to follow Jesus and Jesus Christ is in you. And now we purposely want him completely molded and formed in our heart. And we become, oh, to be sons of the Most High God, the true son of the Most High God, we must be what humble and even love our enemy.
05:57 Now, brothers and sisters, today the issue here is simple. That’s why Luke 17:26, Luke 17:26, Jesus said, as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of man. The second coming time.
06:15 God says, at that time it will be as in the days of Noah. So what was happening here? Jesus finally said that he will not, God said he will not strive with men anymore. That’s why it caused a great flood.
06:28 Because at the time, what was Satan’s idea was, Satan’s idea was pollute the genealogy, the DNA of all humans with this kind of activity by taking women and producing children out of them. And then all the DNA will be corrupted. So what was Satan trying to do? Was trying to stop to have any good human genealogy.
06:53 So Jesus Christ can come through that genealogy. Because Jesus cannot come through a demonic genealogy. He must come through a human genealogy or human DNA.
06:59 He must come through as a human being. His body must be as a human being. Why he must suffer for us.
07:09 Although he is the Son of God. I am that I am. I was, will be ever so he all the time was, now I’m the beginning and the end, Alpha and the Omega, all that Jesus Christ.
07:21 But that was as a spirit being. Now he had to take a human form. Why he need to pay the price as a human being so we can be set free from Satan.
07:31 Our sins can be paid for by human pure, holy, sinless blood. Human blood? Why? Because human being sinned. You need a human sacrifice so I don’t have to now suffer.
07:44 He took the form of human being and he suffered. And he never sinned. He didn’t sin.
07:49 Any kind of temptation, whacking, torture. He still says, forgive them, Father. They do not know what they do.
07:57 They know not what they do. And because of that, I am now released from all the things. Because I’ve done, the punishment is taken away from me.
08:08 Because Jesus Christ took the punishment. Now to do that, he must come as a human being. He can’t come as a Nephilim.
08:13 He can’t come through a Nephilim lineage. So he has to come through as a human being lineage. So the devil knew this.
08:21 So he was trying to make every, no more human, all be Nephilim. That was the game plan. But Jesus, what did Jesus through? Jesus God, what he did.
08:32 He brought a flood. Finally, he saved Noah and his family. So genealogy was saved.
08:38 So from there, finally Jesus came. But the Bible says there were these giants or Nephilims before and after the flood. And also after that.
08:49 Because he says, what on earth in those days? And also afterwards. And also afterwards now. So now they are finding.
08:58 They are finding and they are telling the giants and this and that, of course, David bought. Remember when Joshua and Caleb went to this Jericho city, Some came back and said, we were like grasshoppers. They were giants.
09:13 We were like grasshoppers. So people think that it’s only a metaphor. Metaphorically speaking, no.
09:19 There were giants in the place. That’s why the soldiers got frightened. They don’t want to go back.
09:22 We said, they want to go to Jericho. But Joshua said, no, we will go. We will go because God said so.
09:29 He promised and we go. And God, of course, almighty God, settled them land, the milk and honey. Why was God also destroying some of these Canaanites or whatever, all these nations who have been destroyed? Because they must have been.
09:48 Theologians say there must have been polluted already with Nephilims. So these nations were full of Nephilims. So the nations that all Nephilim, Nephilim nations, they were Nephilim nations.
09:59 And therefore God has to destroy them and give the land to his children who recognize him as God. He created everyone. But those who recognize him as God, he will favor them.
10:12 Of course, he is not going to favor those who reject him. So these Nephilims, rejects or giants, they were forming nations. And that is why the Israelites were going on and on capturing nations.
10:27 Because the nations were actually against God and eventually the Antichrist. So they were being destroyed. So some people say, oh, God, destroying everybody without no, there’s always a He’s a just God.
10:38 He’s a just God. He with perfect knowledge, perfect understanding, perfect justice. So whenever he does something, I command my heart and mind not to question that.
10:47 I command my heart and mind to know that he has done it in full justice, in perfect mercy and justice. So we have a minuscule, stupid mind, limited will say, why God did this? Why God did that? That means we are putting ourselves equal to God. We are created.
11:09 We cannot be equal to God. That is pride, brothers and sisters, thinking like this why God did this? Why God did that? Why Jesus said this? Hey, that’s why when I came to Jesus Christ, immediately, I said, I will just obey because my mind destroyed all my life. I just obeyed.
11:28 And I will obey because he loves me. He’ll care for me. He’ll do the best for me.
11:32 Brothers and sisters, that is the way you have to take. Now, in Genesis 3:15. Genesis 3:15, I’m reading from the Catholic edition.
11:41 I will put enmity between you and the woman and between your offspring and hers. He will strike your head and you will strike his heel. Now I’ll read backwards.
11:54 This is a pledge to read backwards. I will put enmity between you and woman. He’s talking to the devil.
11:59 He says, devil. I’ll put enmity between the devil. You, the devil and the woman and between your offspring and hers.
12:07 Devil’s offspring, who? The Nephilims and all that kind. Don’t know what else you know, because our knowledge is limited. Then you, the devil will strike his heel will hurt him.
12:20 But he who is he, Jesus Christ, will strike your head fatally. In fact, many scriptures will say like amplified and all fatally. It will be destroyed.
12:30 Satan will be finally destroyed. Antichrist will be finally destroyed. Therefore, don’t be afraid of all this.
12:36 They will say, oh, giants here. Oh, the second coming. Oh, there are demons here, demons there.
12:40 You have power to cast out demons. Do not be afraid. Become children of God and stand boldly and cast out every spirit of fear.
12:48 Get out. In the name of Jesus Christ. I receive the spirit of peace from God.
12:52 I am a child of God. Jesus will never leave me or forsake me. He cannot lie because he is the truth.
12:58 So I will stand in that faith and hope. And then now, brothers and sisters, this scripture, Genesis 3:15, is very good because very clear now. Many times, sometimes people mistake can say that the woman will be the one who destroys Satan.
13:15 No, brothers and sisters, it is not the woman. It is Jesus Christ. The scriptures, and especially sometimes.
13:22 That’s why we must check Scriptures, brothers and sisters. Check the scriptures because somebody says something or writes something, and that becomes gospel truth. Don’t believe to human writing.
13:32 Go and see what God has written. This is Jesus Christ will destroy Satan fatally. It is not the woman.
13:40 So some even equate it further to say mother Mary is destroying Satan. Not true. Brothers and sisters, the Bible is very clear.
13:46 3:15. It is Jesus Christ. The seed.
13:50 The seed of the woman is the. You said between you and between her offspring. The offspring of the woman.
13:56 Offspring of the woman will Strike your head fatally. Brothers and sisters, now this is important. Earlier I said what the sons of God saw, that the daughters of men were beautiful and desirable and they took wives for themselves.
14:09 Whomever they choose, they don’t care. This is a rape, you know. That is why brothers and sisters, all of us, including us, remember they also did that in Sodom and Gomorrah.
14:21 They took many. They took men. That’s why this is all real.
14:25 That is why God is very clear about sexual immorality. Sexual immorality is a big no no for God because there will be spirit transference. There can be seed transference, you know.
14:37 So therefore we must keep in Jesus name we can be holy when the thoughts come for sexual immorality. Blood of Jesus, blood of Jesus, blood of Jesus, blood of Jesus, blood of Jesus will go away and we have some reverent fear of God. We want Jesus.
14:52 We want to present our souls as a chaste virgin bride to Christ. Remember that and he’ll never leave you or forsake you. You’re not alone.
14:59 You’re not alone. Oh, there can be Nephilim, as in the days of Noah, it comes. But Jesus said, I will never leave you or forsake you.
15:07 You’re not going to be afraid of this. You’re going to read the scripture as it is. And thank you, Lord.
15:11 Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Jesus. You have chosen me to understand these mysteries.
15:14 You have chosen me to understand that they were giants actually. And you have chosen me that this happened. The fallen angels actually went into the daughters of men because they contended them desirable and beautiful.
15:29 Oh, I have a covering of Jesus Christ. You sister. Imagine the covering of Jesus Christ.
15:35 Jesus Christ is in you. They cannot take you. These fallen angels cannot take you.
15:40 These demons cannot take you. Because you have the power of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is new.
15:45 You will cast out. But casting out first comes with humbleness. Humble grace comes first.
15:51 Be humble, sister. Brother, same thing. Be humble.
15:55 Humble to the word of God. Not humble to theology studies. Not humble to double degrees.
15:57 Not humble to what the world taught us. Humble to what God says because our mind can be humble to what’s been taught for 30 years. Let’s say you went to study a double PhD.
16:10 Finally your mind was all believing much these people said. But the word of God, finally our heart and mind rejects. Don’t allow that In Jesus name make sure I command my heart and mind to believe the word of God and obey the word of God.
16:24 In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray Jesus will never leave us or forsake us. I thank you, Lord Jesus. Come, Jesus, come.

Matthew 6:1-6 Amplified Bible (AMP)
Giving to the Poor and Prayer
6 “Be [very] careful not to do your good deeds publicly, to be seen by men; otherwise you will have no reward [prepared and awaiting you] with your Father who is in heaven.
2 “So whenever you give to the poor and do acts of kindness, do not blow a trumpet before you [to advertise it], as the hypocrites do [like actors acting out a role] in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be honored and recognized and praised by men. I assure you and most solemnly say to you, they [already] have their reward in full.
3 But when you give to the poor and do acts of kindness, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing [give in complete secrecy],

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, the power of Christ Daily 9th October 2015 saying I prayed for you can lose your reward. Saying I prayed for you can lose your reward. Brothers and sisters, today the 9th of October 2015 Friday.
00:21 Now when we wake up, let’s think of others. We are blessed. Jesus Christ is in you.
00:26 Jesus Christ is in me. And now we have to form and mold Christ in our hearts, hearts and mind by meditating on the Word and our conduct, examining our conduct against the Word of God daily on one or two items that you know the Holy Spirit is convicting you, that is not good. Because whatever you’re doing, this particular thing, let’s say you losing temper, or let’s say you’re worrying about something, particularly worry about some money tomorrow.
00:55 How am I going to pay the bills tomorrow? My husband does this or something. We cast all that aside in Jesus Christ’s name. Do the Breath of God and those of you who have not known about the Breath of God, go to the segments and get it or get your moderators.
01:12 Whoever gave you these things, these segments, to ask for the Breath of God segment and listen to it. It’s a powerful thing. Many are set free from fear, from confusion.
01:22 Brothers and sisters, today. And so we are blessed. Start the day knowing you’re blessed.
01:28 The fact that Christ called you and accepted you, washed you with his own blood, righteous, pure, holy blood, and gave you power and gave you faith to be in Him. Oh, you’re blessed. But there are others who are suffering, who can’t see it.
01:46 Because the rule is what the Word of God says. Only those whom My Father allows them to come to me can come to me. So Father, God has allowed us to come to Jesus Christ.
01:56 That alone is priceless, brothers, priceless. So let’s be grateful for that. Yes, we have some pain here, there, everywhere.
02:03 In Jesus Christ’s name I command it. We can do whatever necessary, but we have life. We have peace.
02:10 Peace. The peace in us. Those of you who have been crying out to Christ and talking to Christ and wanting to follow his ways, willing to keep his commandments, loving him will have the peace, the peace that surpasses all understanding.
02:26 Brothers and sisters, today the title says that saying, I prayed for you can lose your reward now. Matthew, many do not know this, many do not know this. And many are losing their reward from Christ because of these things.
02:40 You know when I was born again, when Christ brought me there, and the term is born again because born again in the Spirit, you know, it’s not a Misnomer in the Spirit and people come tell me, I prayed for you, brother. I prayed for you. And then I wonder, why are these people saying this? I prayed for you, prayed for you for something or other.
03:01 Now remember brothers and sisters, then God brought this Matthew 6 and I started reading Matthew 6 because I was listening to the audio cassettes the time, all the words of Jesus, New Testament and Bible. 10 Suddenly this thing struck me in the Spirit. Matthew 6 let’s read what it says.
03:22 Be very careful not to do your good deeds publicly to be seen by men. This is from amplified because extended version Be very careful not to do your good deeds publicly to be seen by men. Otherwise you will have no reward prepared and waiting for you with your Father who is in heaven.
03:44 Praise Jesus Christ. Brothers and sisters, this is a very critical scripture. Be very careful not to do your good deeds publicly to be seen by men.
03:53 Otherwise you will have no reward. Prepare an awaiting you with your Father who is in heaven. 2 so whenever you give to the poor and do acts of kindness, do not blow a trumpet before you to advertise it as the hypocrites do.
04:09 Like actors acting out a role in the synagogues and in the streets so that they may be honored and recognized and praised by men. I assure you and most solemnly say to you they already have their reward in full. I assure you.
04:26 You know who is saying this? This is Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God, the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, the husband of our soul, our Savior, our Master. Oh, he’s saying, I assure you and most solemnly say to you they already have their reward in full. What reward? The praise by men.
04:49 That’s the reward. Men praise them. And God says, Jesus Christ says they already had their reward, so they are not going to get reward from him, not going to get reward from Father God, because they have been honored and recognized and praised by men.
05:03 Therefore he says, whenever you give to the poor and do acts of kindness, do not blow a trumpet as the hypocrites do. Like actors acting out a role in the churches and in the streets. Oh, like hypocrites, like actors acting out the role, it seems, in the churches and in the streets.
05:20 Oh, they’re doing something, doing good. 3 But when you give to the poor and do acts of kindness, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing. Give in complete secrecy.
05:35 4 so that your charitable acts will be done in secret. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you, will reward you openly. Actually, the Bible says Reward you openly.
05:49 Also, when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray publicly standing in the churches or synagogues and on the corners of the streets so that they may be seen by men. I assure you and most solemnly state to you, they already have their reward in full. And when you pray, go into your most private room, close the door and pray to your father who is in secret.
06:13 And your father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you openly. Now, brothers and sisters, today, let’s first of all think what do the world does when the world want to give some charity? They will make a big cardboard check, a very big cardboard check, and then make a big hoo ha. This company is giving $1 million to some charity or whatever.
06:32 They take pictures, put in the newspapers and all already they got their reward. They don’t have the reward from Father God, but he’s telling us now, children of God, when you give your left hand must not know what your right hand is giving. Quiet secret, that is, if you want your reward from heaven, you run Father.
06:51 Father God reward you. Not even reward in heaven, reward here also. Father God will reward you here on earth.
06:57 But if you are giving, if somebody giving because they want to be seen, the intention is to be appreciated by men, appreciated by people. Thank you, thank you. I give you this, brother, I take care of you.
07:10 I took care of that brother. I took care of that brother. Brother was on difficulty, so I took care of him.
07:15 You have no more reward. Many, many. I’m telling you, millions of Christians are losing their reward from Father God because of this.
07:23 They don’t know the scripture. Now there are others who may know the scripture or may not know, but the intention is extremely faulty. Our fallen nature, heart, God calls it treacherously wicked.
07:35 Our heart always wants recognition from people. When our heart wants recognition from people, we have a problem. We have a problem.
07:43 You know, as astronauts will say, from the space capsule to Earth, NASA, we have a problem. Or Houston, we have a problem. Why we have a problem here? Why we are now losing our reward? What Father God wants to give us? You know what Father God can give us? You think this thank you from getting a thank you or some reward, a recognition.
08:07 People look at you. Oh, the brother is good. He took care of that sister.
08:12 And you go. I prayed for you, brother. I prayed for you, sister.
08:16 What is the intention of the heart? The heart wants the brother and sister to recognize me. To recognize me. I prayed for you.
08:23 And now, especially when they got healed, they all come and tell I prayed for you. When you got healed, they come and tell you, I prayed for you. Brother and sister.
08:31 Not knowing whether it was their prayer that worked or it was a righteous prayer much, or is it God’s mercy on your life. But simply because they prayed, they simply assumed because you prayed whichever way, pray wrongly. Also God.
08:51 Just because they pray, they assume their prayer of one that healed somebody and prayed for your brother. I prayed for your sister. Now, assuming it is also your prayer that worked, now you don’t have reward even if you pray.
09:03 It was your prayer that worked. You don’t have a reward now why? You already got your reward from the brother saying thank you. And then others are listening.
09:10 You know she prayed. No. And then the sister healed, you know, the others are giving, others are appreciating that they are recognizing, honored and recognized.
09:19 Oh, she is a great prayer warrior. If you pray, it will work so many times. You pray for these people that people all work.
09:25 The Lord, what is that? Honored and recognized and praised by men. And now what has happened? According to Jesus Christ himself, you do not get reward from Father. So he says, go into your room and pray.
09:39 Now, whether. Suppose there is no room. Pray in your heart.
09:43 That is our room now. Wherever we are the time. Don’t go looking for a prayer closet, a prayer tower.
09:49 You know, they are building prayer grottoes and prayer towers. What happens? You are in some place and you are in the midst of a ghetto, administering to people, and there is no real room. What happens? Somebody is in a war and in the desert war or whatever, and they have to pray.
10:04 How to go to the room? Brothers and sisters, these physical rooms and all this is a creation of man. Prayer grotto. Yes, it helps because it surrounds us.
10:15 Quiet. A specific purpose. Silence.
10:18 Maybe even a nice Christian music is playing the background. You can meditate. Yeah, it’s good for meditation.
10:25 But if you learn the trick of meditation, learn the way of meditating about Christ, wherever you are, in your mind’s eye, in your eyes, of your understanding, in the eyes of your heart, you begin to think of Jesus Christ. Wherever you are, you know how powerful that is. So what happens? You cannot get to a prayer grotto or prayer hill or prayer mountain or prayer something.
10:48 What happens? You cannot go. And what about the millions who cannot afford to go? You think Jesus Christ will allow a system like that? That only those who can get to a prayer room or prayer grotto or prayer something can be blessed? No. The heartfelt prayer of a righteous person availeth much.
11:04 And the husband of your soul Loves you and he will settle. This is very simple. Jesus Christ, why my voice also raising? Because he loves you, brother.
11:15 He loves you, sister. And he written down these scriptures. Now you will not get your reward.
11:20 Now these scriptures are very good for us. They are useful scriptures. They are actually blessing scriptures that bless us to tell us what we can do, what we shouldn’t do, how we will lose our rewards.
11:32 He is not depriving us. This Matthew 6:1:6 is not depriving us. Jesus Christ is speaking to us to let us know.
11:40 Child, son, my son, my brother, you will lose your reward. Isn’t it a good thing? Somebody wants you. Don’t go to that area there.
11:49 There is a pit, there’s a hole, there’s a bush full of vipers, snakes, poisonous cobras are there. Don’t go there. Oh, he’s telling me not to go there.
11:57 Oh, he’s telling me not to go there. Depriving me of going to that area. He wants me to take a long route and go.
12:05 Bypass all the houses and go the other side. Isn’t he saving us? Therefore, God’s orders, God’s laws are a prescription day. The Bible says authoritative prescription, brothers and sisters.
12:18 Now you see, there are times people say, pray for me, brother. Pray for me, Pastor, pray for me. You have to say, I will pray for you, brother.
12:25 Why? They are hoping for support. We need to give comfort. We need to strengthen them.
12:33 But to how we say, I pray to Jesus Christ for you, brother. Jesus Christ will settle you. Something like that.
12:40 Bring Jesus Christ into the picture. Brother and sister. Don’t say, I’ll just pray.
12:44 I’ll pray for you. I’ll pray for you. Then the faith and hope in the person’s heart may fall to you, may bring to you the faith and hope in the person’s heart may go towards you.
12:56 You may be a pastor, you may be a servant, you’re my disciple, you’re my sister, you my brother. But you know what? God begins to hate people who are stealing his glory. He hates, you know, he hates the word.
13:08 He hates you. He will not allow anybody to share his glory. Well, let’s have some reverent fear of Christ, reverent fear of God and begin to train our heart and mind to speak like this when somebody comes up, please pray for me, brother.
13:23 The suffering and all. I’ll pray for you, brother and sister, to Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ. Hope in Jesus Christ will never fail.
13:30 You also pray, brother. I will stand in agreement. You tell them you also pray because they are also children.
13:35 Of God. God listens to their prayers. Now if you say we pray, we pray.
13:40 It has become also many times a fad, a fashion. Everybody wants somebody else to pray. They’re not praying for themselves.
13:47 They’re acting just like in any of the religions. Put some money and somebody will pray for you. Oh, send so many dollars to this tower of prayer tower somewhere and somebody will pray for you.
13:56 The team of prayer, prayer tower, people praying. But Jesus wants you. He’s you, his child.
14:02 He wants you to call on Him. Can you imagine? I have Praise Jesus Christ. Now, let’s say now I not let’s say I have four children.
14:11 Let us say one child keeps on coming and asking. On behalf of the remaining three, I’ll start asking why the other three don’t speak to me. They don’t come to speak to their Father.
14:23 Why they always send you to come and ask me things? Are they not my children? Oh, this one special. You favour this one. God already clearly said he doesn’t favour men.
14:34 One by one. He shows no favoritism. It’s not partial towards anyone.
14:39 Jesus Christ made it clear. God’s Father made it clear. He’s not partial.
14:43 He doesn’t take favoritism. Human beings may, but God doesn’t. And he wants you, if you are his child, he wants you to call him above father in the name of Jesus Christ.
14:54 He wants you to call him brothers and sisters now. So when you have to even tell the people, I will pray for you brother or sister, you have to add in Jesus Christ and tell them to go to Jesus Christ and maybe write a prayer for them. Create a prayer for them.
15:08 You go to the graceoflife.com there are prayers there you can take and start praying. Yes. Two or three gathered in his name.
15:14 Yes. One chases 1,000, two chases 10,000, three chases 100,000. Go on.
15:19 So together there’s big power. Yes, but it is Jesus Christ who is settling us. Let’s not now take the glory from him and then lose our reward from Him.
15:29 Brothers and sisters, it’s the same thing here. So when you pray quietly and when you see something has happened, you just thank Jesus in your heart. Thank you Lord Jesus.
15:41 Not for answering my prayer. Thank you, Lord Jesus. You settled this child of God.
15:45 You settled this follower. You settled this brother. You settled this sister.
15:50 Thank you Lord. You’re grateful. You make your heart grateful for that.
15:53 Brother and sister are well, not. Oh, Jesus answered my prayer. We expect our prayers to be answered.
16:00 He is our God. He is our Father. So therefore, brothers and sisters, today.
16:05 Be very careful. And the Bible starts off by saying, be very careful not to do your good deeds in public. Don’t go and begin to say, I pray for you and all that’s publicly getting reward and losing the reward from Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
