7 KEYS TO CHANGING ANYTHING IN YOUR LIFE... TODAY! - Part 2 - Day 23/30- Season 2 2023
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if, by harnessing the power of disturbance and honesty, you unlocked the door to profound life transformation? Imagine your 2023 as the best year yet! This episode draws valuable lessons from Nehemiah, a man who, upon seeing the ruins of Jerusalem, chose to mourn, fast, and pray. Nehemiah's actions, driven by honesty about his shortcomings and those of his people, paved the way for transformation. His story serves as a powerful testament to the potency of a proactive and straightforward approach.
Life is all about winning that internal game, staying true to oneself, and releasing our full potential. We discuss how vibrant, successful individuals contrast with the unfulfilled, focusing on their behavioral patterns and mentality. It's about having the edge, not settling for mediocrity, and daring to be honest rather than opting for comfort through soft words. We further delve into the significance of self-control, self-discipline, and the dangers of rationalization on your journey to success.
Are you ready to set 2023 alight with a massive action plan ignited by your tiny spark? This episode examines the importance of having a potent strategy, in prayer and action. We discuss the "in Jesus name" concept and how a tiny spark can ignite a mighty flame. The narrative of Nehemiah underscores the value of a well-devised, divine action plan. So, buckle up for an insightful exploration of these life-changing principles from a biblical perspective, and let's set the stage for your best year yet!

Keys to Changing Your Life
Speaker 1I used to好了 yes , sir , I'm going to come back , hallelujah , hey , yeah , hey , yeah , hallelujah , we're going to be going to Portugal . Yes , sir , yeah .
Speaker 2Yeah , and you know the few days that are left in this that they challenge . Indeed , we are believing God that you know you can change your life anything today . These are keys that work If you open your heart , if you open your life .
Speaker 2You just need maybe one , just one key . One key will open one door and that door is open . No one can close it . You know a moment of revelation in inspiration . You know , and there are times when you are just being God and it's how you're just bringing inspiration to you and telling you what you know . This is possible and when that happens you become unstoppable . Now growing this morning , the grace of God has reached us , speaking very ordinary way yeah , somehow something will resonate well with you and you'll pick it up and you'll run with it and your life will never be the same again .
Speaker 2So in Nehemiah , chapter one , you know verses one . We just read a few verses when we say , in the month of Kislev , in the 20th year , while I was in the citadel of Sousa and not any one of my brothers came from Judah with some other men and I questioned them about the Jewish remnants that have survived exile and also about Jerusalem . Then , firstly , they said to me those who survived the exile and are back in the province are in great trouble and disgrace . The wall of Jerusalem is broken down and its gates are being banned with fire . That's the report that Nehemiah received from the brothers who came to see him . The wall of Jerusalem was broken down . Its gates have been banned with fire . This morning , what is broken down in your life ? This morning I have been in front of the fire . You know this talks about destruction . This is a low point in the children of Israel . I don't know what is your low point .
Speaker 2I don't know where you are this morning . Maybe your world is broken for you . Maybe it's a relationship , maybe it's an economic world , maybe it's a spiritual world . You're not where you are or where you believe you should be spiritually . Maybe it's in your relationships , maybe it is in your business , maybe it's in your career . You've had said about the walls are broken , these gates have been banned with fire . And , first of all , when I heard these things , I sat down and worked . When you see what ? He sat down and he worked . When this thing came to him , he sat down and worked . He didn't just cry , he was whipping . He was crying and whipping .
Speaker 2Whipping talks about a deep concern , something very deep . It was a deep concern for him . He says for some days I mourned and fasted . These are very powerful words . Mourning and fasting and then praying before call to God . This is what our Nehemiah responded to this situation . How have you responded to this ? I thank God that you are here this morning . This is a response . Your being here in the morning is a determination to take a different direction for your life and we know that the Lord is going to enable us .
Speaker 2As you continue there , you see the Nehemiah again doing this . The Lord of God , the great and awesome God , who is the Lord of the world and those who love him and keep his commandments . And this verse it lets you hear be attentive and your eyes open to hear the prayer your servant is praying before you day and night for your servant , the people of Israel . This is Nehemiah making a prayer , and this morning we also praying that the Lord's ear will be attentive . You know when we pray that God's ears will be attentive to everything we are declaring here this morning , when we come and declare that I can do all this declaration . You see , may our cause ears be attentive and his eyes hear the prayer that we are making here every morning , every morning . And then he said I confess the sins we Israelize , including myself and my father's family , have committed against you . So he confessed the sins of himself , his family , everyone . And then he says we have acted wickedly towards you . We have not obeyed the commands , degrees and laws you gave your servant , moses for seven years in a Maya acknowledging , telling him of the truth .
Speaker 2We talk about this later on in here because it's key . It's one of the keys here to getting a breakthrough . You have to be honest with yourself . You have to tell the truth . You don't shoot it , you don't call it another name , you call it by its name . That's the beginning of transformation . Thor likes it when we are direct , when we are truthful , when we are honest . We know we are wickedly . And part of the beginning of transformation is being truthful to yourself . Where you say you know what is true . I'm here , you stop . The rationalization that we talked about yesterday and that will catch up with you this morning as well Said we have acted wickedly towards you . We have not obeyed the commands , degrees and laws you gave your servant Moses . This was a truthful and honest , you know speech . You can never change your life till you begin to tell yourself the truth . Why you begin to be honest with yourself . When you don't cover things . You say this is it . You are direct and you understand where you've gone wrong . You understand the challenges , the mistakes you've made . You own up yourself . That's how Nehemiah responded here . And then , in chapter 2 , we see him now taking action .
Speaker 2In the month of Nixon , in the 20th year of King of Texas , when wine was brought to him , I took the wine and gave it to him , to the king . I had not been sad in his presence before . So the king asked me why does your face look so sad when you're not ill ? This can be nothing but sadness of art . Then he said I was very much afraid , but I said to the king may the king live forever . Why should my face not look so sad when the city where my ancestors are buried lies in ruins and its gates are being destroyed by fire ?
Speaker 2Then , first of all , the king said to me what is it you want ? I want you to see this . It is a pattern . Jesus asked . But my eyes , what is it you want ? Every miracle he did . Jesus asked them what do you want me to do for you ? You know Nehemiah . He cried , he mourned , he fasted , he prayed , he wept and then he caught himself up and began moving .
Speaker 2We talk about that here today , because the journey to an extraordinary life gains with motion . And he went to the king and you know what you see here the king beginning to say what is it you want ? This is a picture of the Lord Jesus Christ . This is a picture of God . Everything in the new Old Testament is just a picture , the reflection of today . The king here is our Lord , and the Lord is asking what is it you want ? What is it you want ? The resources are available . It's ready to bless you , it's ready to encourage you and make these scriptings pass as we look at these keys to changing our life today , in Jesus' mighty
Unlocking Success
Speaker 2name .
Speaker 2So these , you know , seven days of what is left of this 30 day challenge . Whether it's seven days , eight days , nine days , whatever it is left , we believe that's going to give you an edge . You know , when you talk about an edge , getting the edge it is means you transform your life , your body , your emotions , your relationships , your finances . You get a life advantage where you can see and feel life and do life from the peak , where you experience joy , passion , energy . So when you talk about getting an edge , you're getting so much passion and energy you can't wait to jump out of bed every morning . You're looking forward to tomorrow . Even at night you don't even want to go to bed because there's so much going on in your life . There's so much , you know , things happening in your life , you're enjoying your you know , you're so passionate about what is happening that you can't wait to sleep and you can't wait to come out . That's what we talk about having an edge and we said yesterday , you know happy , vibrant , successful people .
Speaker 2They think and behave in certain ways and so , and so also are miserable and unfulfilled people . When you see people that are happy , that are vibrant , that are successful , there's a particular way in which they believe they behave , and part of this 30 day challenge is introducing some of these patterns so that you can be able to pick them , because they are , they will also be able to move on the same path . The same way , when you see miserable people , they are miserable because some thing happened at night . No , there are things they are doing that are making them miserable . When you see unfulfilled people , those bitter , negative energy draining when they open their mouth , you know they , they just drain energy from you . You know , because something happened at night . No , there are things they are doing in their life that is making them miserable and unfulfilled . That means there are patterns of success and there are patterns of failure , and the good news is that you can pick these patterns yourself .
Speaker 2And then again , don't just say you know , someday and if that happens a lot , someday I'll be happy . You know , maybe when I make more money , when I get that promotion , when my children free school and it's only me and my husband and my wife left here at home . Or maybe you're saying when I get married or when I win the lottery , you know because you know they rode to someday . You know someday , someday , you know someday it will come home . The road to someday leads to a town called nowhere . The road to someday I want you to mark that one . You can treat that the road to someday leads to a town called nowhere . You know what you need to take specific steps . You need to take specific habits , build specific habits that will take you to the right destination . You know that will be where you are .
Speaker 2And so , as we continue we talked about that yesterday as well what prevents from following through ? Why do people have intentions , you know , of getting that something , that they don't get it done ? Because we lack self-discipline , we lack self-control . These are things that we touched on yesterday . I'm just repeating here Self-control is deciding what you will do or not do , their ability to manage your desires and impulses .
Speaker 2And self-discipline is the ability to give yourself command and you obey it , and this is powerful . That's why the enemy doesn't want us to be self-discipline . You know , when you have self-discipline , you'll say I will wake up . You tell yourself I'll wake up at 4 am . I'll be there sitting down waiting . You know I will go this direction . I will not go into that shop . I will not eat that chocolate . You are giving yourself a command and you obey it . That is what you call self-discipline . And the reason why people don't have lasting success is because we lack self-control and we lack self-discipline . And this 30-day challenge is introducing us to that that we can be able to be powerful . You can be able to give yourself a command . You're in control of your destiny . You're not a victim of circumstances and you can be in control of yourself . So again , we talked about this yesterday .
Speaker 2Why are people not seeing things through ? Because we rationalize . We rationalize , you come up with a reason or a story . You know where you're supposed to be , you know where you're going , but you don't go there . You don't know what you want to do . Why ? Because you rationalize , it's okay not to do something . Because you give yourself excuses . You say , oh , I'm committed , but I was supposed to go for the mission , but I had planned to do that . I , you know , but but but when the only thing that's keeping you from being where you want to be is the story you have about why you can't have it .
Speaker 2The reason why you are not where you're supposed to be is the storyline you have built . We all build storylines for ourselves . Oh yeah , I'm here because maybe I only got a form for certificate . Oh , I'm here because you know I don't have a degree . You know I'm here because I , we give ourselves a storyline . You are where you are because you're giving yourself a story that you're believed and you keep telling yourself and we pray that this 30 day challenge is going to burst that out , that you will remove those stories . In Jesus you say why don't I have time ? You know I don't have time . I , you know I can't like , don't have . This is a story that we keep giving ourselves . And this one who has a dick , you know those stories , throw them out . God has created you . You are , you know , in a powerful way . He has blessed you . He was the best for you and God is bad for you .
Speaker 2How do we kill rationalization ? We kill rationalization by momentum . Momentum is the biggest killer of rationalization . What is momentum ? It is get moving , get moving , don't wait . Don't sit there and say I'll do it tomorrow . Push through your comfort zone , start , where you are , wake up and move is like every morning . This morning you're running out for this prayer . You just wake up and you just jump and you talk about the power , that emotion , you know . Wake up if you want to go , if you , if you get going , wake up , get your shoes . You know move . Don't , don't even think , don't wait . Be thinking when you're walking , if thinking , when you're running , don't don't wait . Be good to momentum , momentum .
Speaker 2Identify the story you are telling yourself why you can't do this and all of us , the very thing that you are doing . There's a story you are telling yourself why I'm here , this , why am I struggling financially , or because of the job that I have , or because of the salary I earn , is a story . Is a story you know . Don't , don't , don't , don't get , don't kill yourself with that story . Identify the story that you are telling yourself .
Speaker 2It is always a lie . Tell yourself the truth . As we said yesterday again , no organization or anyone , anything , nothing gets better until your meat is wrong . You know , until your meat is wrong . If you don't tell yourself the truth , you never get better . You need to face yourself every morning and say you know you don't deserve to be here . This is your . You are living below where you're supposed to be .
Speaker 2The moment you start telling yourself the truth , then you begin to take positive change and move forward . You stop mediocrity . You know mediocrity is anytime you settle for less than what you really are , and we all have a tendency to settle for less than what we are . It's called mediocrity . It becomes part of your life . You settle for less . You know what you're capable of doing . You know what you're capable of doing . You know what you're capable of giving . You know the results . You can go to the free . You know you can do it , but you settle for less . That's why I like the story of John
Winning or Losing in Life
Speaker 2Wooden .
Speaker 2Most of you know you read biographies is one of the most inspiring coaches of all time . He won one out of 12 championships that he competed for seven champions in a row . And when you read his biographies he says he focused on eliminating rationalization . At the end of every game would pull his team and he said you know whether you won or lost , not based on this course , because you can win a game , but actually you have lost . If you don't give your honor , the only thing that you're doing , and you don't give your all , you have lost . You may have won the game , maybe because the other team was confused the other team , maybe they were , you're just lucky , or maybe the other team didn't prepare but when you don't give your all , you are a loser and you call the team members and you tell them I want you to go into that box and I want you to vote whether you won this game or you lost it not based on the score , but based on what you gave .
Speaker 2And this morning I want to ask you are you winning ? Are you winning or losing in life ? Winning or losing in life is an internal game and it comes from telling yourself the truth , where you look at yourself so you shouldn't be here , you are good , too much weight , you are broke . You shouldn't be here . You tell yourself the truth every single morning . When you don't give your all , you're a loser . And it does not matter whether you won the game . It doesn't matter whether you you , you're still moving forward . Maybe you're better than other people , because that's also what you do is oh , I'm better than everybody else . No , no , if you are operating below your capacity , that's mediocrity and you're actually losing .
Speaker 2And one of the things of getting on in your life is , you know , stopping mediocrity , which is not not settling for less than what you can be able to , what you can do . We talked about this yesterday . What I want to call out here is really earn your shields into masts , because when something is a must , we follow through . When you wake up every morning and say , I am good to wake up , a restriction of what I'll be there , you can count on me , I'll be there for the challenge , you can count on me . You do not use , you should . You must be , and we thank God for what I see as a neighbor , us to be here every morning .
Speaker 2The second thing that we talked about yesterday as well is , you know , telling yourself the truth and not using softness . And what I want to really highlight here is don't use softness . Softness are things that you say you make yourself feel better without actually changing anything , and it trains you to accept me , do equity , which we have talked about here . You , for you know , for you to be able to change things in your life , you need to stop rationalizing , you need to tell yourself the truth . And , number three , you must have an effective strategy . You know , develop a strategy that works . You will never produce an extraordinary life , an extraordinary finances , extraordinary , you know , body , extraordinary relationships , you know when you don't have a strategy that works . I was thinking of of the strategy , for example , if you want to produce , you know , to cut weight and be , you know , be healthy and you , you can't say I'm just going to dieting only and you've had all those things being mentioned . All you know the Daniel diet and this diet and this diet , this diet , and we know it does not work . You cannot ever change your body just because of dieting alone , without exercising . We know that I was reading the story of opera Winfrey .
Speaker 2I think most of you know how she's one of the most amazing women that I've ever lived this century . She's , she's , you know , rose from riches to become one of the world's women , women in the world . She's friends a lot of people and I was reading I still get all things but when she started doing a TV show , you know that the job gave us so much stress and she gained so much weight . She gained so so much weight . At some point she was weighing 101.5 kilograms . She's rising up autobiography . She once went for a meeting to go and watch I think it was Mohammed Ali in a boxing , every weight boxing match , and they were announcing the weight of the people boxing and Mohammed Ali was weighing 101 . It was weight actually 98.8 kilograms . That's a heavyweight champion . Opera at that time was weighing exactly the same weight . She was weighing as much as Mohammed Ali . She was soft . You know she was soft . This was .
Speaker 2She started doing dieting . She tried this diet , this diet , and you know nothing , nothing kept because , as you all know , when you do those diets , the moment you stop the diet you gain as much weight back . You get every single weight you gained because diets alone can never be able to give you a good body , until you begin to exercise . And she writes in her book that , until she woke up , she got a coach who forced her every single morning to say you're going to work out , you go to exercise 45 minutes on a daily basis and she started applying that . She has been living like that up to day . You all know how . You see , she was weighed 110 kilograms and you know , through exercise .
Speaker 2I'm talking about strategy that works , because if you exercise , if you pull a strategy that does not work , you'll be frustrated , like she would give enough example in time . They were wrote in an article she was calling her the big mama . That's what the name that was in the Times magazine . They were calling her big mama . She said I don't want to be called a big mama . She was so annoyed with that , with that title , and she said I'm gonna do something . You know what we begin to change when we make decisions . We talk about that right now , but I'm just talk about that . You need to have a strategy that works . You can never produce results if the strategy you are using is the wrong . You need to get a strategy that works . You must have an effective strategy and that's why we are here every morning learning new things , strategies , picking up ideas that if you go and walk on the people meant they actually bring a change in your , in your life again . This was stopped about yesterday .
Speaker 2The pressure cooker it is , you know , people who come . They change because of pain and I've seen it happen with breath , rain . You know , somebody has a near-life death experience . Maybe , you know , had a near-life experience , almost dying , and the next day he is in church weeping and saying you know , oh God delivered me from that accident and you know I'm going to serve God now . If surely he has delivered me . I'm going to serve God with my all life . But you know what ? As time goes on , you know he forgets , and that's what happens he forgets , they forget , and within a very short time he's back again with the same life he was leading and it becomes a round thing . It becomes what you call a pressure cooker . You know pain , action , results , you return back . You're going round and round and round , never moving forward . And you know what we pray and we'll be able to identify this and we don't stain the pressure cooker because we can avoid it .
Speaker 2So this morning , as I pick on the question I think our sister covered yesterday , is you know , get disturbed . If you look at Nehemiah , when he got the news about what was happening in Jerusalem , he got disturbed . You cannot change in your life if you don't get disturbed . If you're not uncomfortable about where you are , you can never achieve change . I'm telling you , nehemiah , when he heard the news about what was happening in Jerusalem , the man who started weeping , he started crying , he mourned , he fasted , he was deeply concerned . You're concerned about your situation because the moment you're concerned , you don't use rationalization , you don't compare yourself with others . You are so concerned they say no , I can't live like this . I can't live like this I remember when I got born again .
Speaker 2I talked about it so many times . When I walked into that hall I knew I would never , ever want to continue living the way I was living . I knew I needed a change , I needed something . And as I worked that all and I had the gospel being preached . I knew my life . My life will never be the same . We can never change when we don't get disturbed by our situation .
Speaker 2So this morning , is it your relationship ? Is it your finances ? Is it your career , your business ? Is it your spiritual life , your ministry ? You know , if you want to transform your life in any area , it begins with you getting disturbed .
Speaker 2Nehemiah was so disturbed , he mourned , he fasted , he cried , he , you know , you could see him and you're concerned about your situation . The woman with the issue of she said I can , I will spend all my money on doctors and I'm not getting better . I'm going to do something . I will go . And the Bible says she looked for that crowd , that crowd where Jesus was , and she was desperate and she came forward . She pushed through . The disciples are throwing him . She said today is my day , but not live here the way I come . She was concerned about her life and she was going through the last ounce of energy , she pushed through . Even if I can't reach this man , just the government . Yes , his government is all I want . The Bible says when she touched Jesus , power was drained from Jesus .
Speaker 2There's something that God does when we are , when we are disturbed about our situation , when we are disturbed about the poverty , the poverty in your home , you come , you look at it and you look at the poverty levels in your home and it must concern you . You remember looking at our family and we were digging terraces , digging terraces to get money to go for one , and nothing concerned me . I was so , so , so , so traumatizing the poverty level . You're sleeping on the floor . You don't have a mattress . You're sleeping on other people's clothes that become your bedding and you have to work out very hard and give them because your bed cover is somebody's dress , is somebody's dress . You have to wake up early every morning and throw it to her so that you know she can get her dress . That's why we live .
The Power of Getting Disturbed
Speaker 2I was mad about it , I was concerned , I was . I said you know what I have to do something . You know . What I'm saying is that you can never change till you become disturbed . That's the situation in your life . You must be disturbed . You remember we took about at the beginning . It's done because we lack resources , it's because we are not resourceful . You must have hadden , you must be concerned , you must be saying no , I have to change this situation . I cannot continue living like this . This is not my portion in life . So , being disturbed . Nehemiah was so concerned . He mourned , he fasted , he cried , he called imagine Jerusalem with no walls . It was a problem for him , it was a concern for him .
Speaker 2I want to tell you , brothers , whatever you are concerned about , you know that's the beginning to change . G number one get disturbed . And of course there's long business . Surround yourself with people who have what you want . You know seeing them will disturb you . You know . Hang around with people who have what you want . It's called mentoring . It's having people that you are looking up to say you know what I want to be like , so I want to . If there is a relationship I want to be like so and so I admire what they are doing . You surround with people who have what you need . That way , every morning , they challenge you to run , they challenge you to get better , they challenge you . That's very , very key Get disturbed at the beginning , but being honest with yourself .
Speaker 2Nehemiah was honest . He said , god , we have errored , we have messed up , we have sinned . That's why we are where you are . You need to get honest with yourself . You are aware you , because of what you have done up to now , on up . This is me . Don't blame somebody else , don't blame the environment , don't blame the government . Just say you know what I'm where I'm today because I've allowed myself to be here . Take control . They disturbed . Nehemiah was concerned and that was the beginning of change .
Speaker 2We are talking about seven keys that will change anything in your life today . Get disturbed . We know somebody is disturbed . If somebody is concerned , you can see even your career . Life is different .
Speaker 2When you meet in church on Sunday , somebody who has a mission , who is disturbed about something , and you have to get them crying , weeping . You know things before God . Do you think they sacrifice ? They are making , they will do everything possible to change their life . Why ? Because you are disturbed , and I pray this morning , we will be on our way to being disturbed . So we don't then rationalize . You know I don't have time . Oh , yeah , you know , if only I'll do it tomorrow . You know I'm tired . You know , here today I want to connect , but you know I'm gonna be tired and you know it will take too long , it will cost too much , it's too far away . These are all things we do and when we have this rationalization we can never move forward and I pray that there will not be a portion in our life .
Speaker 2The second thing we talk about , seven things G , is that will unlock every door . Serving the second thing is a real decision . Those who succeed in life have an answer to these three questions . What do you really want ? Remember what the king has in the MIA . So the king is standing this morning . President is speaking to us , all of us in this meeting , in this 30 day challenge . He said ask my sister what do you want ? My daughter , what do you want ? Sad , what do you want ? What do you want ? That's that . What do you want is the result , what is the result that you want ? Then number two . You say what is the ? What do you want it ? Nehemiah said I want to . You can read that chapter two . Then count out .
Speaker 2Nehemiah with the king said you know what ? I want to go to Jerusalem and rebuild the wall , because you know when that wall is broken down or people are in fear they'll be attacked . That wall was so important . It was the purpose . Once you decide you know the purpose , will you get through , understand the reasons ? Remember , ansar's come second . He said why do you want the wall built ? What does this wall mean for you ? Why is it significant ? What do you need to make it happen ?
Speaker 2You see again Nehemiah having an encounter with the king . He's saying what do you need ? Nehemiah asked the king for resources . He's you know the M stands for the massive action plan . Massive action plan for resources . What do you need to get things going ? Nehemiah said . Nehemiah started up immediately . You know what , if you're going to change anything in your life , make a real decision . You know those who succeed in life , they make decisions . The Ansar , this RPM . What result do you want ? What's the purpose ? What is the massive action plan ? And they said the way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing . There's a lot of croaking , the house of God . There's a lot of talk about brother , I will do this , or one day I'll do this or one . This we've said the road to one day leads to a town called nowhere . We say , oh , one day when everything comes on through one day when I'm this one day one day .
Speaker 2One day it leads to a town called nowhere . So get out of that . The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing something . That's what Walt Disney said . Number three you get a massive action plan . Create a massive action plan . It's time to draw the map , to make sure you follow through . You come up with a list of actions that will absolutely produce results . You know , choose one result you're committed to achieving and list all the things you could do to achieve it .

Create a massive action plan . Sit down , write us . I'm going to do this . This is what I'm going to do to change my situation .
Speaker 2Nehemiah created a plan . He said you know , I'm going there , I'm going to get people , I'm going to rally people , I'm going to rebuild that wall . He was willing , he was ready to build the wall . He had a plan that he presented to the king . When the king asked him what you need , he asked for letters , he asked for resources . He was clear about what you wanted . And this morning , I believe the heavens are looking at us . God is saying where is your plan ? Where is your plan ? Choose something , choose something , give me something to work with . I'm ready to bless your plan . You know God . Why do those emotions that Nehemiah asked for resources ? He said you know , king , I'm ready , give me resources , you know . And then the king is looking towards this morning . He's looking at your situation , he's looking at your condition , he's looking at the thing you're believing God is leading him for . Can you say give me a plan , give me a plan , give me something . When is the last time you sat down and you looked at your life and you were lined by line and by line and said you know what ? This is going to be my plan .

These are the things that we must do . We have a plan , we have a plan and we execute on that plan on a daily basis . We are preparing . Even this 30 day challenge is part of our plan . Why ? Because we don't want to be weak . You know , ministry members want to be strong , want to be equipped , want to be flourishing , want to be thriving , because when you are thriving , the ministry is thriving . When you are thriving , the church is thriving . This is not our plan . We didn't just wake up and say , oh yeah , I want to have a go with some 30 day challenge . No , there's a plan , it is stated , is there ? We know exactly why we are doing
