WEBVTT

00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:09.852
<v Speaker 1>We're going to all pick up our Bibles and wave them around, make Jesus glad and the devil mad, and let's say this together Say, heavenly Father, I'm so glad to be here today.

00:00:09.852 --> 00:00:15.673
<v Speaker 1>I'm appropriating the blood, the blood of my covenant.

00:00:15.673 --> 00:00:21.032
<v Speaker 1>My covenant is sure and complete.

00:00:21.032 --> 00:00:38.271
<v Speaker 1>It's real and it is effective today because it's the blood of Jesus that was shed for me and I'm enforcing the word and the spirit and all the circumstances of my life.

00:00:38.271 --> 00:00:44.468
<v Speaker 1>I have the victory because of the blood in Jesus name.

00:00:44.468 --> 00:00:49.500
<v Speaker 1>Amen, praise God.

00:00:49.521 --> 00:00:51.505
<v Speaker 1>Well, we're sharing a message with you, calling receiving your kingdom supply.

00:00:51.505 --> 00:00:55.292
<v Speaker 1>And it's third, uh, in the installment of four.

00:00:55.292 --> 00:00:57.244
<v Speaker 1>At least that's what I have planned today.

00:00:57.244 --> 00:00:58.529
<v Speaker 1>Maybe it'll go on a while.

00:00:58.529 --> 00:01:12.125
<v Speaker 1>I was at Lakewood when brother Osteen preached 32 straight messages on finances and I was broke at the time, so it was very it was hard to sit through because I kept going ouch, ouch, ouch.

00:01:12.125 --> 00:01:14.962
<v Speaker 1>You know All right.

00:01:14.962 --> 00:01:17.549
<v Speaker 1>So it's Philippians.

00:01:17.549 --> 00:01:18.471
<v Speaker 1>I'll get it correct here.

00:01:18.471 --> 00:01:22.210
<v Speaker 1>Philippians 4.19 is our cornerstone scripture.

00:01:22.210 --> 00:01:24.087
<v Speaker 1>We've got others to share with you today.

00:01:25.099 --> 00:01:32.108
<v Speaker 1>But Paul is writing to the church at Philippi, who were his partners they had sent once and again to his necessity.

00:01:32.108 --> 00:01:44.566
<v Speaker 1>He was their father in the faith he had, you know, formed that church and left to go other places, and they supported him and because of that they qualified for this verse.

00:01:44.566 --> 00:01:47.153
<v Speaker 1>But my God, verse 19,.

00:01:47.153 --> 00:01:58.099
<v Speaker 1>But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches and glory, by Christ Jesus.

00:01:58.099 --> 00:02:01.224
<v Speaker 1>So, basically, if you have a need, there is a supply.

00:02:01.224 --> 00:02:04.653
<v Speaker 1>And then, of course but we're talking about the things that you have to do to qualify you know that you might.

00:02:04.653 --> 00:02:07.683
<v Speaker 1>You know Jesus made poor that we might be rich.

00:02:07.683 --> 00:02:09.788
<v Speaker 1>Rich meaning have an abundant supply.

00:02:09.788 --> 00:02:12.580
<v Speaker 1>Might is on our side, not on God's side.

00:02:12.580 --> 00:02:13.442
<v Speaker 1>God's done it.

00:02:13.442 --> 00:02:17.128
<v Speaker 1>The blood has been shed, the poverty has been taken.

00:02:17.128 --> 00:02:19.514
<v Speaker 1>But whether we receive it.

00:02:19.514 --> 00:02:24.759
<v Speaker 1>That's why the whole premise of this message is for you to receive what God has given already.

00:02:24.759 --> 00:02:26.800
<v Speaker 1>The whole premise of this message is for you to receive what God has given already.

00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:33.265
<v Speaker 1>And if you don't make the proper adjustments, adjust your receiver, you might miss something that God wants you to have.

00:02:33.265 --> 00:02:43.151
<v Speaker 1>I like the love it translation of that verse my God shall supply all your need out of the fantastic treasures amassed in Christ.

00:02:43.151 --> 00:02:45.074
<v Speaker 1>Isn't that good?

00:02:45.074 --> 00:02:47.115
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's shouting ground right there.

00:02:47.115 --> 00:02:48.276
<v Speaker 1>Because, why?

00:02:48.276 --> 00:02:50.776
<v Speaker 1>Because weassed in Christ, isn't that good?

00:02:50.776 --> 00:02:52.098
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's shouting ground right there.

00:02:52.098 --> 00:02:52.237
<v Speaker 1>Why?

00:02:52.237 --> 00:02:53.019
<v Speaker 1>Because we're in Christ.

00:02:53.019 --> 00:02:53.498
<v Speaker 1>We're in Christ.

00:02:53.498 --> 00:02:55.525
<v Speaker 1>What he has belongs to us, but are we getting?

00:02:55.525 --> 00:02:56.807
<v Speaker 1>Are we receiving it?

00:02:56.807 --> 00:03:06.585
<v Speaker 1>See, that's the premise of these messages so that you can become supply conscious and not inflation conscious.

00:03:06.585 --> 00:03:07.627
<v Speaker 1>I don't care who you are.

00:03:07.668 --> 00:03:18.967
<v Speaker 1>It's easy to become inflation conscious when we have a liar in chief at the White House that stands up in front of everybody that will listen and say I inherited this inflation at 9%.

00:03:18.967 --> 00:03:24.709
<v Speaker 1>Liar, it was one and a half percent when you got in the White House.

00:03:24.709 --> 00:03:25.290
<v Speaker 1>So I don't know.

00:03:25.290 --> 00:03:26.626
<v Speaker 1>You know, just lies.

00:03:26.626 --> 00:03:27.824
<v Speaker 1>Oh well, you can't take him.

00:03:27.824 --> 00:03:30.788
<v Speaker 1>You can't take him literally as his press secretary.

00:03:30.788 --> 00:03:31.711
<v Speaker 1>A worthless woman.

00:03:31.711 --> 00:03:34.610
<v Speaker 1>God, ship her back to Haiti, where she belongs.

00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:39.052
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry to be so direct with the children, but they need to hear the truth too.

00:03:39.052 --> 00:03:47.866
<v Speaker 1>They might be confused by what they're hearing from the woke and crazy people that are out there, but these people are liars.

00:03:47.866 --> 00:03:55.729
<v Speaker 1>They're so filled with deception, they've been deceived, they're deceived themselves and when they speak, they don't even know what the truth is anymore.

00:03:55.729 --> 00:03:58.844
<v Speaker 1>So you can be inflation conscious.

00:03:58.844 --> 00:04:05.721
<v Speaker 1>When you, you know, go to the grocery store, or when you, you know, get a notice in the mail, you know that everything's going up.

00:04:05.721 --> 00:04:08.507
<v Speaker 1>You know utilities going up, this is going up.

00:04:08.627 --> 00:04:12.062
<v Speaker 1>Insurance I've got insurance this month, that it's.

00:04:12.062 --> 00:04:13.725
<v Speaker 1>You know, I'm not griping, I just laugh.

00:04:13.725 --> 00:04:17.641
<v Speaker 1>I look at my insurance on my house and my car's going way up.

00:04:17.641 --> 00:04:18.622
<v Speaker 1>I've never had a claim.

00:04:18.622 --> 00:04:20.903
<v Speaker 1>I don't think I've ever had a claim on my house.

00:04:20.903 --> 00:04:26.107
<v Speaker 1>I had a few claims earlier in my life when I was reckless and I had a few accidents.

00:04:26.107 --> 00:04:27.708
<v Speaker 1>I had some claims back then.

00:04:27.708 --> 00:04:38.896
<v Speaker 1>But I mean you know they just take our money and then they raise our rates based on just whatever their tables are and I could gripe about it.

00:04:38.896 --> 00:04:39.456
<v Speaker 1>But you know what?

00:04:39.456 --> 00:04:40.137
<v Speaker 1>I got a supply.

00:04:40.137 --> 00:04:42.339
<v Speaker 1>I just laughed and I said, glory to God, I've got a supply.

00:04:42.339 --> 00:04:43.987
<v Speaker 1>My insurance went up 30%, that's all right.

00:04:43.987 --> 00:04:44.791
<v Speaker 1>Glory to God, I've got a supply.

00:04:44.791 --> 00:04:45.958
<v Speaker 1>My insurance went up 30%, that's all right.

00:04:45.958 --> 00:04:47.584
<v Speaker 1>Glory to God, I've got more than that coming.

00:04:47.584 --> 00:04:48.649
<v Speaker 1>Hallelujah.

00:04:48.649 --> 00:04:54.990
<v Speaker 1>This ain't no problem for me, because I've been without insurance and that's problematic right now.

00:04:55.060 --> 00:04:57.750
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know, if you can afford insurance, it's better to have insurance.

00:04:57.750 --> 00:05:01.610
<v Speaker 1>It's better to have life insurance, especially if you're in your family raising ages.

00:05:01.610 --> 00:05:12.927
<v Speaker 1>I mean, when you get older and older and older and you've got assets, maybe you can forego.

00:05:12.927 --> 00:05:14.653
<v Speaker 1>You know big insurance policies just have a burial policy, so to speak, or whatever.

00:05:14.653 --> 00:05:17.482
<v Speaker 1>But you know, when you've got a young family and that's one thing about insurance, it's cheap.

00:05:17.482 --> 00:05:25.709
<v Speaker 1>Term insurance is cheap you can get a million-dollar policy for less, you know, just call Big Lou, big Lou, big Lou, all right.

00:05:26.591 --> 00:05:31.146
<v Speaker 1>He said I'm just like you, four foot nine, 400 pounds, big Lou, all right.

00:05:31.146 --> 00:05:35.997
<v Speaker 1>So we want to be.

00:05:35.997 --> 00:05:37.880
<v Speaker 1>Everybody say I'm supply conscious.

00:05:37.880 --> 00:05:41.524
<v Speaker 1>See, be supply conscious, be supply minded.

00:05:41.524 --> 00:05:50.336
<v Speaker 1>See when you're need-minded, when you're behind, when you're inflation-minded, then you're a victim, then you're nervous.

00:05:50.336 --> 00:05:53.408
<v Speaker 1>Nelly, it's easy to be nervous, nelly, right now.

00:05:53.408 --> 00:05:56.624
<v Speaker 1>If your name is Nelly, I'll change that, I'll make it just sounds good.

00:05:56.624 --> 00:05:57.949
<v Speaker 1>Together is my only reason.

00:05:57.949 --> 00:05:59.824
<v Speaker 1>I'm not calling you nervous.

00:05:59.824 --> 00:06:08.841
<v Speaker 1>If you're Nelly, all right, your Nelly, all right.

00:06:08.862 --> 00:06:12.028
<v Speaker 1>So we've been teaching these teachings to build your faith, to receive your kingdom supply, independent of the world system.

00:06:12.028 --> 00:06:16.242
<v Speaker 1>And so we came across three laws of the kingdom so far.

00:06:16.242 --> 00:06:20.850
<v Speaker 1>One, the law of serving, or the law of priority.

00:06:20.850 --> 00:06:24.500
<v Speaker 1>Jesus said you can't serve God in mammon, you can't serve two masters.

00:06:24.500 --> 00:06:28.324
<v Speaker 1>And so mammon is wealth personified.

00:06:28.324 --> 00:06:34.428
<v Speaker 1>It's like wealth as an idol, it's like wealth as a God, and some people.

00:06:34.428 --> 00:06:36.509
<v Speaker 1>Just think about the rich young ruler that's.

00:06:36.509 --> 00:06:37.790
<v Speaker 1>His wealth was like that.

00:06:37.790 --> 00:06:40.112
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he had an apostolic call.

00:06:40.112 --> 00:06:43.254
<v Speaker 1>God Jesus called him to be an apostle, to come.

00:06:43.615 --> 00:06:47.718
<v Speaker 1>You know one thing you lack sell what you've got, give alms to the poor.

00:06:47.718 --> 00:06:48.658
<v Speaker 1>And he didn't called him to be an apostle Come.

00:06:48.658 --> 00:06:51.420
<v Speaker 1>You know one thing you lack, sell what you've got, give alms to the poor.

00:06:51.420 --> 00:06:52.362
<v Speaker 1>And he didn't tell him to give everything away.

00:06:52.362 --> 00:06:52.964
<v Speaker 1>He said sell what you've got.

00:06:52.964 --> 00:06:55.651
<v Speaker 1>He had a lot of goods, he had a lot of investments that he needed to turn into.

00:06:55.651 --> 00:06:56.500
<v Speaker 1>What Cash?

00:06:56.500 --> 00:06:59.887
<v Speaker 1>Sell what you have, he said.

00:06:59.887 --> 00:07:04.535
<v Speaker 1>In other words, get rid of the obligations of your businesses.

00:07:04.535 --> 00:07:07.360
<v Speaker 1>In other words, get rid of the obligations of your businesses.

00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:11.949
<v Speaker 1>See, we could read it that way and not do wrong.

00:07:11.988 --> 00:07:13.411
<v Speaker 1>And give alms he didn't say give all of it in alms.

00:07:13.411 --> 00:07:20.822
<v Speaker 1>He said you're going to tithe on that, you're going to give offerings and you're going to help the poor.

00:07:20.822 --> 00:07:21.343
<v Speaker 1>Is what he was saying.

00:07:21.343 --> 00:07:25.206
<v Speaker 1>And come, take up your cross and follow me, make sacrifices to follow me.

00:07:25.206 --> 00:07:31.151
<v Speaker 1>See, because all the apostles made sacrifices, some of them were martyred, you know, some of them were persecuted.

00:07:31.151 --> 00:07:33.454
<v Speaker 1>John was thrown in a pot of boiling oil.

00:07:33.454 --> 00:07:36.197
<v Speaker 1>They tried to kill him with boiling oil.

00:07:36.197 --> 00:07:39.584
<v Speaker 1>They couldn't even French fry him.

00:07:39.584 --> 00:07:41.750
<v Speaker 1>He said I'm not French, too bad, I'm Jewish.

00:07:41.750 --> 00:07:51.007
<v Speaker 1>Ha ha ha, I mean, you know, take up your cross and follow me.

00:07:51.007 --> 00:07:55.471
<v Speaker 1>And he went away sad, because he had much riches, many goods.

00:07:55.471 --> 00:07:58.052
<v Speaker 1>They were his God Mammon.

00:07:58.052 --> 00:07:59.293
<v Speaker 1>He was serving Mammon.

00:07:59.293 --> 00:07:59.995
<v Speaker 1>He couldn't see.

00:07:59.995 --> 00:08:01.475
<v Speaker 1>Jesus said one thing you lack.

00:08:01.475 --> 00:08:02.817
<v Speaker 1>You're serving two masters.

00:08:02.817 --> 00:08:06.261
<v Speaker 1>You can't do it.

00:08:06.261 --> 00:08:07.704
<v Speaker 1>But then we talked about that.

00:08:07.783 --> 00:08:15.447
<v Speaker 1>Law basically means that now your supply becomes your servant, you become your supply's.

00:08:15.447 --> 00:08:18.225
<v Speaker 1>God See, it just switches.

00:08:18.225 --> 00:08:26.690
<v Speaker 1>Because now, because we found out through the law of calling, that your call, that your supply has a name and it has ears and it will obey you.

00:08:26.690 --> 00:08:31.766
<v Speaker 1>You have the right to call your supply and if you don't call it, it won't show up.

00:08:31.766 --> 00:08:34.091
<v Speaker 1>Aren't you the king?

00:08:34.091 --> 00:08:36.287
<v Speaker 1>You're kings and priests unto God.

00:08:37.080 --> 00:08:40.110
<v Speaker 1>Book of Revelation says we're kings and priests.

00:08:40.110 --> 00:08:43.345
<v Speaker 1>Jesus is the king of kings, he's the Lord of lords.

00:08:43.345 --> 00:08:45.985
<v Speaker 1>We're the kings and lords, he's king and lord of.

00:08:45.985 --> 00:08:52.153
<v Speaker 1>So when we speak in faith in Jesus' name, it has to obey us.

00:08:52.153 --> 00:08:58.152
<v Speaker 1>So the law of calling, the law of serving, or the law of priority we put God first.

00:08:58.152 --> 00:09:00.607
<v Speaker 1>You know you can't serve God in a moment.

00:09:00.607 --> 00:09:03.288
<v Speaker 1>Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness.

00:09:03.480 --> 00:09:05.688
<v Speaker 1>All these things that you need will be added unto you.

00:09:05.688 --> 00:09:12.566
<v Speaker 1>What you need where, where you need to live, what you need to eat, everything you need a car, man.

00:09:12.566 --> 00:09:13.328
<v Speaker 1>You live in Houston.

00:09:13.328 --> 00:09:14.384
<v Speaker 1>A bicycle won't work.

00:09:14.384 --> 00:09:29.580
<v Speaker 1>I'm so glad to know that this mayor I mean, I know he's a Democrat and he's liberal, but he's got a brain and I appreciate him just topping up all these liberal nutcase expansion plans that the federal government that started with Obama.

00:09:30.081 --> 00:09:40.255
<v Speaker 1>Obama wanted to plug the cities of the nation up where people would get rid of cars and the government could make everybody ride rapid transit and control your schedule.

00:09:40.255 --> 00:09:46.952
<v Speaker 1>So they're actually proposing to cut the lanes of traffic on different arteries.

00:09:46.952 --> 00:09:54.304
<v Speaker 1>If you've ever been over in the southwest side of town on Alabama West time, they were going to narrow the lanes and put bike lanes in.

00:09:54.304 --> 00:09:56.710
<v Speaker 1>Hello, this isn't New Delhi, you idiot.

00:09:56.710 --> 00:09:58.953
<v Speaker 1>This is Houston.

00:09:58.953 --> 00:10:00.462
<v Speaker 1>We need cars here.

00:10:00.462 --> 00:10:02.385
<v Speaker 1>Bikes won't work.

00:10:02.385 --> 00:10:04.710
<v Speaker 1>You know you can't walk to work.

00:10:04.710 --> 00:10:06.253
<v Speaker 1>Okay, try walking to work.

00:10:06.253 --> 00:10:07.341
<v Speaker 1>That doesn't work.

00:10:07.341 --> 00:10:08.484
<v Speaker 1>You get run over right.

00:10:08.484 --> 00:10:11.410
<v Speaker 1>There's no sidewalks on the freeway, thank God.

00:10:11.410 --> 00:10:11.991
<v Speaker 1>All right.

00:10:11.991 --> 00:10:15.186
<v Speaker 1>So you know we need a car, don't we?

00:10:15.186 --> 00:10:16.671
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's not a luxury.

00:10:18.019 --> 00:10:22.309
<v Speaker 1>Somebody said oh, I don't know if God yes, he will you need it.

00:10:22.309 --> 00:10:26.823
<v Speaker 1>See, if there's a need, there's a supply.

00:10:26.823 --> 00:10:27.729
<v Speaker 1>If there's a need, there's a supply.

00:10:27.729 --> 00:10:29.645
<v Speaker 1>That's the whole thing about the Democrat Party.

00:10:29.645 --> 00:10:32.706
<v Speaker 1>They want to be your supply, they want to be your God.

00:10:32.706 --> 00:10:40.589
<v Speaker 1>See, you have to understand that and never vote for one of them, never, never vote for one of them, because that's what they believe.

00:10:40.589 --> 00:10:42.443
<v Speaker 1>Oh, you're telling me how to vote?

00:10:42.443 --> 00:10:44.207
<v Speaker 1>Well, no, I didn't tell you specifically.

00:10:44.207 --> 00:10:57.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm giving you principles, because we established, also last week, that God is a capitalist, he's not a socialist, he's certainly not a communist like the Pope.

00:11:00.128 --> 00:11:01.130
<v Speaker 1>Oh, it's hard to hear him.

00:11:01.130 --> 00:11:04.144
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to watch him.

00:11:04.144 --> 00:11:07.471
<v Speaker 1>Just filled with error, filled with just nothing.

00:11:07.471 --> 00:11:07.993
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to hear him.

00:11:07.993 --> 00:11:08.514
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to watch him.

00:11:08.514 --> 00:11:10.018
<v Speaker 1>Just filled with error, filled with just nothing.

00:11:10.018 --> 00:11:10.619
<v Speaker 1>It's just terrible.

00:11:10.619 --> 00:11:12.662
<v Speaker 1>If I was Catholic, I'd get out.

00:11:12.662 --> 00:11:13.202
<v Speaker 1>I'd get out.

00:11:13.202 --> 00:11:17.307
<v Speaker 1>If you're Catholic, what are you doing, stuck in there with a communist pope?

00:11:17.587 --> 00:11:19.970
<v Speaker 1>He hates Israel, he hates America.

00:11:19.970 --> 00:11:23.674
<v Speaker 1>He could hold the sign up death to America, death to Israel.

00:11:23.674 --> 00:11:24.895
<v Speaker 1>He could hold the sign up.

00:11:24.895 --> 00:11:27.038
<v Speaker 1>Every word, america, death to Israel.

00:11:27.038 --> 00:11:28.340
<v Speaker 1>He could hold the sign up.

00:11:28.340 --> 00:11:36.804
<v Speaker 1>Every word out of his mouth is condemning toward us, and I know America is not perfect, but I tell you we've done a lot of good in this world.

00:11:37.307 --> 00:11:39.611
<v Speaker 1>All right, so in just a little while we're going to pray over Israel.

00:11:39.611 --> 00:11:48.006
<v Speaker 1>They need our prayers and it's National Day of Prayer for for Israel this, this Sunday morning.

00:11:48.006 --> 00:11:48.509
<v Speaker 1>So, or this Sunday, uh.

00:11:48.509 --> 00:11:49.270
<v Speaker 1>So seek first the kingdom of God.

00:11:49.270 --> 00:11:54.125
<v Speaker 1>So the law of priority, the law of calling last week, the law of use use it or lose it.

00:11:54.125 --> 00:11:58.280
<v Speaker 1>What you have in your possession right now is enough for your miracle.

00:11:58.280 --> 00:12:01.985
<v Speaker 1>Give what you have in God's hand, he will multiply it.

00:12:04.870 --> 00:12:07.794
<v Speaker 1>And he gave you know, he talked about the parable of the talents.

00:12:07.794 --> 00:12:10.183
<v Speaker 1>He gave.

00:12:10.183 --> 00:12:12.551
<v Speaker 1>You know, jesus spoke the parable.

00:12:12.551 --> 00:12:14.686
<v Speaker 1>There's a man going to take a far journey.

00:12:14.686 --> 00:12:20.870
<v Speaker 1>He's talking about himself, and he called his servants unto him and he gave them five, one to one.

00:12:20.870 --> 00:12:24.943
<v Speaker 1>Five talents One, two, one, one according to their several abilities.

00:12:24.943 --> 00:12:27.388
<v Speaker 1>See, not equal, not equal.

00:12:27.388 --> 00:12:30.231
<v Speaker 1>He didn't give each one five talents One, two, one.

00:12:30.231 --> 00:12:31.514
<v Speaker 1>One According to their several abilities.

00:12:31.514 --> 00:12:32.073
<v Speaker 1>See, not equal, not equal.

00:12:32.073 --> 00:12:33.475
<v Speaker 1>He didn't give each one of them five.

00:12:33.475 --> 00:12:35.198
<v Speaker 1>He gave them according to their ability to handle his goods.

00:12:35.198 --> 00:12:39.200
<v Speaker 1>They're his goods.

00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:43.355
<v Speaker 1>That's one thing we have to understand, that everything we have is his and some of us.

00:12:43.395 --> 00:12:45.811
<v Speaker 1>You can't make it equitable, you can't make it equal.

00:12:45.811 --> 00:12:49.647
<v Speaker 1>You can give equal opportunity but you can't give equal results.

00:12:49.647 --> 00:12:50.568
<v Speaker 1>That's another lie.

00:12:50.568 --> 00:12:57.240
<v Speaker 1>The DEI thing that we're seeing right now Diversity, equity and inclusion means that everybody gets the same.

00:12:57.240 --> 00:13:02.413
<v Speaker 1>Well, not everybody's got a brain, not everybody's smart enough to do this job.

00:13:02.413 --> 00:13:05.889
<v Speaker 1>There's only a few people that are capable of doing the job.

00:13:05.889 --> 00:13:12.214
<v Speaker 1>And now we've got incapable people telling us what to do with our money, with our gasoline.

00:13:12.214 --> 00:13:14.908
<v Speaker 1>Thank God for Governor of Florida.

00:13:14.908 --> 00:13:23.268
<v Speaker 1>I mean he just signed six energy bills that got rid of the green energy thing and all the liberals are screaming and hollering.

00:13:23.268 --> 00:13:27.767
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he's coming up in my book, he's doing the right things.

00:13:27.767 --> 00:13:40.649
<v Speaker 1>Abbott's not doing a bad job on the border, he's doing a good job shipping all these illegal aliens that's what they are, illegal aliens out and where you know people get to share the load.

00:13:40.649 --> 00:13:43.881
<v Speaker 1>Well, don't you want to share the load a little bit?

00:13:43.881 --> 00:13:45.629
<v Speaker 1>You're always talking about everybody equal.

00:13:45.629 --> 00:13:47.587
<v Speaker 1>We want to make you equal in that area.

00:13:47.587 --> 00:13:50.544
<v Speaker 1>Pretty hard to make them equal.

00:13:50.565 --> 00:13:52.586
<v Speaker 1>The eagle passed, boy, I'm going to run this morning.

00:13:52.586 --> 00:13:54.206
<v Speaker 1>I better shut up and get with the Word.

00:13:54.206 --> 00:13:57.245
<v Speaker 1>Y'all are pulling stuff out of me.

00:13:57.245 --> 00:13:58.289
<v Speaker 1>I think it's the kids.

00:13:58.289 --> 00:14:01.982
<v Speaker 1>The kids want to hear this, the children want to hear the truth.

00:14:01.982 --> 00:14:05.489
<v Speaker 1>And they went in there and they just yanked it all out of me.

00:14:05.489 --> 00:14:08.375
<v Speaker 1>Oh, where were we?

00:14:08.375 --> 00:14:11.149
<v Speaker 1>Okay, the law of use use it or lose it.

00:14:11.961 --> 00:14:13.628
<v Speaker 1>And we saw the woman with the jars.

00:14:13.628 --> 00:14:20.874
<v Speaker 1>Her husband died owing everybody in town and the creditors were coming to take her sons as collateral.

00:14:20.874 --> 00:14:25.220
<v Speaker 1>He put his sons up as collateral for the debt and they took the son.

00:14:25.220 --> 00:14:26.345
<v Speaker 1>We're going to take the sons.

00:14:26.345 --> 00:14:31.702
<v Speaker 1>And she cried to the prophet, which stood for God, and he asked her what have you got in the house?

00:14:31.702 --> 00:14:33.486
<v Speaker 1>And she said nothing at first.

00:14:33.486 --> 00:14:39.663
<v Speaker 1>See, she was not conscious of her supply that she already had.

00:14:39.663 --> 00:14:42.028
<v Speaker 1>She didn't take inventory.

00:14:42.028 --> 00:14:45.900
<v Speaker 1>And she said well, yeah, I've got a pot of oil and she might have.

00:14:45.900 --> 00:14:49.389
<v Speaker 1>Well, she didn't say it, but she might as well have said what's that going to do?

00:14:49.389 --> 00:14:50.231
<v Speaker 1>That's not enough.

00:14:50.231 --> 00:14:52.226
<v Speaker 1>It never is enough, folks.

00:14:52.226 --> 00:14:56.149
<v Speaker 1>What you have is never enough, and that's why you need God.

00:14:56.149 --> 00:14:57.787
<v Speaker 1>You need God to multiply.

00:14:58.740 --> 00:15:09.792
<v Speaker 1>And if you go around and be all fearful and you grab a hold of what you got and hang on to it and bury it in the yard or you, you know, put it in the root cellar or whatever it is you do with it, put it in the ice box.

00:15:09.792 --> 00:15:17.748
<v Speaker 1>I knew a guy one time put his money in the ice box they call it refrigerator nowadays and my day was ice box.

00:15:17.748 --> 00:15:21.520
<v Speaker 1>So I'm dating myself again, all right.

00:15:21.520 --> 00:15:28.153
<v Speaker 1>So she, uh, he said, well, look, go borrow of your neighbors some jars.

00:15:28.153 --> 00:15:31.384
<v Speaker 1>Don't borrow just a few, borrow a bunch, don't scant with it.

00:15:31.384 --> 00:15:36.570
<v Speaker 1>And her boys went out and borrowed and I said last week, 666 jars.

00:15:36.570 --> 00:15:37.592
<v Speaker 1>Well, how do you know that?

00:15:37.592 --> 00:15:40.567
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's the Antichrist system, it's mammon.

00:15:40.567 --> 00:15:42.312
<v Speaker 1>They have control.

00:15:43.501 --> 00:15:50.587
<v Speaker 1>Those Jewish people were so backslidden they were going to come take this widow's and her husband was a prophet.

00:15:50.587 --> 00:15:55.210
<v Speaker 1>They had no fear of God and they're going to go take her, living away from her.

00:15:55.210 --> 00:16:03.690
<v Speaker 1>And the law teaches that you've got to do good to the widow, that you've got to release people every seven years from their debts.

00:16:03.690 --> 00:16:05.422
<v Speaker 1>That's a year of release.

00:16:05.422 --> 00:16:10.149
<v Speaker 1>They weren't practicing the word, see.

00:16:10.149 --> 00:16:13.760
<v Speaker 1>So God intervenes and says oh, you still got a supply.

00:16:13.760 --> 00:16:15.004
<v Speaker 1>Your husband served me.

00:16:15.004 --> 00:16:22.443
<v Speaker 1>You go borrow all those jars, stack them up and when you get your boys back in there, close the door and start pouring out.

00:16:22.524 --> 00:16:26.350
<v Speaker 1>And she did that, and she poured out all 666 jars.

00:16:26.350 --> 00:16:26.910
<v Speaker 1>Well, how is it?

00:16:26.910 --> 00:16:27.912
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

00:16:27.912 --> 00:16:28.572
<v Speaker 1>How do you know?

00:16:28.572 --> 00:16:30.155
<v Speaker 1>That's the grinder's translation.

00:16:30.155 --> 00:16:40.458
<v Speaker 1>If you don't believe it, that's fine, but there's a lot of jars in her house, so many jars that she was able to sell that oil and pay her debts and live off the rest.

00:16:40.458 --> 00:16:42.667
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't just the three or four jars of oil.

00:16:42.667 --> 00:16:49.306
<v Speaker 1>Okay, he turned one jar into everything she needed, plus money to live on.

00:16:49.306 --> 00:16:50.447
<v Speaker 1>Are y'all getting this?

00:16:50.447 --> 00:16:50.688
<v Speaker 1>Now?

00:16:50.688 --> 00:16:53.333
<v Speaker 1>That's in the Bible.

00:16:53.333 --> 00:16:55.202
<v Speaker 1>That's the law of use.

00:16:55.202 --> 00:17:02.342
<v Speaker 1>Jesus demonstrated the law of use with the five loaves and two fishes and the four loaves Amen.

00:17:03.524 --> 00:17:10.061
<v Speaker 1>So we have every right, then, to expect God to do what he said he would do At some point.

00:17:10.061 --> 00:17:16.673
<v Speaker 1>You've got to make a decision that God's word is true and every man is a liar.

00:17:16.673 --> 00:17:24.105
<v Speaker 1>You've got to make a decision that you're going to stand on his word, no matter how it looks, no matter how it feels, no matter what anybody else says.

00:17:24.105 --> 00:17:26.440
<v Speaker 1>You're going to take God at his word, no matter how it looks, no matter how it feels, no matter what anybody else says.

00:17:26.440 --> 00:17:28.785
<v Speaker 1>You're going to take God at his word.

00:17:28.785 --> 00:17:31.349
<v Speaker 1>He said it, he'll do it.

00:17:31.349 --> 00:17:32.291
<v Speaker 1>That settles it.

00:17:32.291 --> 00:17:33.582
<v Speaker 1>That's all I believe it.

00:17:33.582 --> 00:17:34.364
<v Speaker 1>That settles it.

00:17:34.364 --> 00:17:37.551
<v Speaker 1>And if you don't do that, you're always going to lack.

00:17:37.551 --> 00:17:42.808
<v Speaker 1>You're always going to be a nervous Nelly, you'll do without.

00:17:42.808 --> 00:17:43.750
<v Speaker 1>Why?

00:17:43.750 --> 00:17:44.852
<v Speaker 1>Because god doesn't care?

00:17:44.852 --> 00:17:46.595
<v Speaker 1>No, he cared enough to send jesus.

00:17:46.595 --> 00:17:51.420
<v Speaker 1>How much more can he care to give his only begotten son to shed that blood?

00:17:51.420 --> 00:17:54.730
<v Speaker 1>He, he's provided already.

00:17:54.730 --> 00:17:56.816
<v Speaker 1>So we've got to what?

00:17:56.816 --> 00:17:58.140
<v Speaker 1>Make an adjustment in our thinking?

00:17:58.140 --> 00:18:02.147
<v Speaker 1>So here today let's look at mark, chapter four.

00:18:02.147 --> 00:18:17.483
<v Speaker 1>We're going to get into another law and I'll preach on this partly today and then next week wrap it up with some expansion on this and try to clear up some misconceptions that people have.

00:18:21.549 --> 00:18:23.492
<v Speaker 1>Mark chapter 4, verse, verse 26,.

00:18:23.492 --> 00:18:26.016
<v Speaker 1>And this is, you know, sower sows the word.

00:18:26.016 --> 00:18:32.472
<v Speaker 1>He talks about the four kinds of dirt, three kinds of sowing, and all of them sowed the word.

00:18:32.472 --> 00:18:34.227
<v Speaker 1>All of them sowed the word of God.

00:18:34.227 --> 00:18:40.894
<v Speaker 1>All four of the examples that Jesus used in the parable of the sower sows the word.

00:18:40.894 --> 00:18:43.829
<v Speaker 1>All of them sowed the word, but only one had a crop.

00:18:43.829 --> 00:18:47.130
<v Speaker 1>The other three had a crop failure.

00:18:47.220 --> 00:18:48.787
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever had a crop failure?

00:18:48.787 --> 00:18:52.809
<v Speaker 1>I could raise my leg too, but I might fall down.

00:18:52.809 --> 00:18:55.325
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I have.

00:18:55.325 --> 00:18:59.068
<v Speaker 1>Hopefully you learned something from a crop failure.

00:18:59.068 --> 00:19:02.368
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you at least learned what not to do next time.

00:19:02.368 --> 00:19:05.307
<v Speaker 1>I had a lot of next times.

00:19:07.362 --> 00:19:10.571
<v Speaker 1>The guy asked the millionaire how in the world did you get to be a millionaire?

00:19:10.571 --> 00:19:11.704
<v Speaker 1>He said good decisions.

00:19:11.704 --> 00:19:13.686
<v Speaker 1>Well, how did you learn how to make good decisions?

00:19:13.686 --> 00:19:14.509
<v Speaker 1>Bad decisions?

00:19:14.509 --> 00:19:19.768
<v Speaker 1>All right, mark, chapter 4, did you find it?

00:19:19.768 --> 00:19:20.490
<v Speaker 1>Verse 26.

00:19:20.490 --> 00:19:25.028
<v Speaker 1>And he said Jesus said so is the kingdom of God.

00:19:25.028 --> 00:19:34.633
<v Speaker 1>See, we're talking about the laws of the kingdom, and he's just about to give you the primary, cardinal, foundational law.

00:19:34.633 --> 00:19:37.142
<v Speaker 1>So is the kingdom of God.

00:19:38.002 --> 00:19:46.816
<v Speaker 1>As if a man should cast seed into the ground and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up.

00:19:46.816 --> 00:19:51.068
<v Speaker 1>He knoweth not how first the blade for the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself.

00:19:51.068 --> 00:19:52.813
<v Speaker 1>What is the earth?

00:19:52.813 --> 00:19:53.901
<v Speaker 1>It's your spirit.

00:19:53.901 --> 00:19:59.625
<v Speaker 1>Everything you need in the future is in your spirit.

00:19:59.625 --> 00:20:00.665
<v Speaker 1>Why?

00:20:00.665 --> 00:20:10.733
<v Speaker 1>Because you are a spirit and you're in Christ, and he supplies your need out of the what was that Levitt translation?

00:20:10.733 --> 00:20:15.136
<v Speaker 1>Out of the fantastic treasures amassed in Christ.

00:20:15.136 --> 00:20:26.398
<v Speaker 1>You've got fantastic treasures locked up in your spirit.

00:20:26.398 --> 00:20:36.403
<v Speaker 1>Put your hand over your heart Now you know it's not your heart beating heart, but as a symbol of your spirit, see your spirits inside your body say there's fantastic treasures in my spirit.

00:20:36.403 --> 00:20:40.130
<v Speaker 1>Faith is what brings them out of there.

00:20:40.130 --> 00:20:44.563
<v Speaker 1>Faith, faith is what describes them and shows them what their name is.

00:20:44.563 --> 00:20:56.281
<v Speaker 1>You don't even know their name yet, but once you find out what the name is of that fantastic treasure, you know it's got some ears and you can call it.

00:20:56.281 --> 00:20:58.124
<v Speaker 1>This is how the whole kingdom operates.

00:20:58.183 --> 00:21:02.767
<v Speaker 1>If a man should cast seed in the ground, should sleep and rise night and day, the seed should spring and grow up.

00:21:02.767 --> 00:21:05.670
<v Speaker 1>He knoweth not how for the bringeth forth fruit of herself.

00:21:05.670 --> 00:21:06.830
<v Speaker 1>First the blade.

00:21:06.830 --> 00:21:08.811
<v Speaker 1>Well, you can't eat a blade.

00:21:08.811 --> 00:21:10.814
<v Speaker 1>Blade doesn't do you any good.

00:21:10.814 --> 00:21:13.075
<v Speaker 1>It's just an indication that you've got something growing.

00:21:13.075 --> 00:21:14.056
<v Speaker 1>It's good to see it.

00:21:14.056 --> 00:21:18.709
<v Speaker 1>If you didn't see a blade at all, then you've got a problem.

00:21:18.709 --> 00:21:28.085
<v Speaker 1>You know the farmer goes out there and plants a whole thousand acres of wheat and nothing comes up.

00:21:28.085 --> 00:21:29.086
<v Speaker 1>He knows he's got a problem, something happened.

00:21:29.106 --> 00:21:35.967
<v Speaker 1>But if he sees some green out there, they say in Israel and also in Kansas and Iowa, you know you can hear the corn grow.

00:21:35.967 --> 00:21:37.792
<v Speaker 1>I don't doubt it.

00:21:37.792 --> 00:21:41.021
<v Speaker 1>I mean that corn, it grows fast and it moves that dirt.

00:21:41.021 --> 00:21:50.847
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's fighting to get to the surface and you know it's putting out roots downward and shoots upward, and I mean that dirt is moving.

00:21:50.847 --> 00:21:56.603
<v Speaker 1>And you get out there when everything's quiet at night, with no animals.

00:21:56.603 --> 00:22:03.561
<v Speaker 1>You know birds, you know they're all asleep and everybody's kind of quieted down and you can hear the soil moving.

00:22:03.561 --> 00:22:06.836
<v Speaker 1>I've never heard it, but I believe it.

00:22:06.836 --> 00:22:08.855
<v Speaker 1>I know it's growing.

00:22:08.855 --> 00:22:11.519
<v Speaker 1>I've got stuff planted and it's growing.

00:22:11.519 --> 00:22:20.846
<v Speaker 1>That's how the kingdom operates First the blade, then the ear and then the full operates first the blade, then the ear and then the full corn in the ear.

00:22:21.556 --> 00:22:31.913
<v Speaker 1>But when the fruit is brought forth, or when the fruit is ripe, when it's usable, when it's consumable, immediately he put it in the sickle.

00:22:31.913 --> 00:22:33.057
<v Speaker 1>Who's the he the one that planted it?

00:22:33.057 --> 00:22:34.141
<v Speaker 1>Immediately?

00:22:34.141 --> 00:22:36.146
<v Speaker 1>He put it in the sickle.

00:22:36.146 --> 00:22:39.833
<v Speaker 1>Who's the?

00:22:39.833 --> 00:22:40.815
<v Speaker 1>He the one that planted it?

00:22:40.815 --> 00:22:41.516
<v Speaker 1>Not God.

00:22:41.516 --> 00:22:42.998
<v Speaker 1>God doesn't put the sickle in.

00:22:42.998 --> 00:22:44.119
<v Speaker 1>You put the sickle in.

00:22:44.119 --> 00:22:47.125
<v Speaker 1>How do you put the sickle in With your mouth?

00:22:47.125 --> 00:22:52.895
<v Speaker 1>You show me somebody silent all the time about their money and I'll show you somebody broke.

00:22:55.192 --> 00:22:56.618
<v Speaker 1>No, you're going to have to say some things.

00:22:56.618 --> 00:23:00.240
<v Speaker 1>See, we've been talking about this in lots of different messages.

00:23:00.240 --> 00:23:03.546
<v Speaker 1>I want you to gather all these messages.

00:23:03.546 --> 00:23:12.137
<v Speaker 1>We've been preaching about having a prayer life and about having build your life with words and all of the things that I've been preaching the last few months and put them together in your finances.

00:23:12.137 --> 00:23:15.336
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to tell you, it's time this is the year of momentum.

00:23:15.336 --> 00:23:31.912
<v Speaker 1>It's time, in the middle of the harshest, worst financial disaster this country's had since Carter, that the church rises up in the middle of it and says we are in a different kingdom, we're in a different kingdom.

00:23:31.912 --> 00:23:34.619
<v Speaker 1>Glory to God.

00:23:34.619 --> 00:23:40.135
<v Speaker 1>Immediately, he putteth in the sickle, for the harvest is come.

00:23:40.135 --> 00:23:43.873
<v Speaker 1>Glory to God, that's how the whole kingdom operates.

00:23:43.873 --> 00:23:49.044
<v Speaker 1>And so Jesus is speaking here.

00:23:51.055 --> 00:23:52.678
<v Speaker 1>The laws of sowing and reaping.

00:23:52.678 --> 00:23:55.722
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's just that's what he's talking about the laws of sowing and reaping.

00:23:55.722 --> 00:23:57.182
<v Speaker 1>And he's it's just that's what he's talking about the law of sowing and reaping.

00:23:57.182 --> 00:24:02.400
<v Speaker 1>And he's talking to the Jews that have not really done a very good job of that.

00:24:02.400 --> 00:24:04.717
<v Speaker 1>They still haven't repented.

00:24:04.717 --> 00:24:11.734
<v Speaker 1>They still haven't repented because they're still being ruled by a foreign country, by Rome.

00:24:11.734 --> 00:24:14.896
<v Speaker 1>If we're not careful, that's what's going to happen to America.

00:24:14.896 --> 00:24:21.156
<v Speaker 1>America will be ruled by China, and just about is right now.

00:24:21.156 --> 00:24:21.451
<v Speaker 1>I mean.

00:24:21.451 --> 00:24:24.410
<v Speaker 1>They have wormed their way into all kinds of places.

00:24:24.410 --> 00:24:27.675
<v Speaker 1>They're buying up our farmland, they're buying up our universe.

00:24:27.675 --> 00:24:29.537
<v Speaker 1>They've got influence in our university.

00:24:29.537 --> 00:24:33.060
<v Speaker 1>Why do you think all these Palestinian students are rioting?

00:24:33.060 --> 00:24:35.057
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's because money's coming in to pay them.

00:24:35.057 --> 00:24:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, you know I'm going to stay on subject.

00:24:40.920 --> 00:24:42.174
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to go into that.

00:24:42.174 --> 00:24:43.057
<v Speaker 1>Praise the Lord.

00:24:44.190 --> 00:24:49.736
<v Speaker 1>So this law is revealed all the way through the Old Testament and the New Testament, over and over and over again.

00:24:49.736 --> 00:25:06.963
<v Speaker 1>When you read this in the book of Mark, really it's all through the Bible the laws of sowing and reaping work, and so again Jesus is speaking to a nation that's largely disobedient to the kingdom laws.

00:25:06.963 --> 00:25:10.474
<v Speaker 1>See, I used the poor widow.

00:25:10.474 --> 00:25:14.123
<v Speaker 1>They were going to come, take her sons and let her starve to death.

00:25:14.123 --> 00:25:16.153
<v Speaker 1>How wicked is that.

00:25:16.153 --> 00:25:18.922
<v Speaker 1>And that's way before Malachi.

00:25:19.089 --> 00:25:26.278
<v Speaker 1>Malachi showed up, 400 years before Jesus, the last prophet, and he rebuked the priesthood.

00:25:26.278 --> 00:25:33.163
<v Speaker 1>He spoke to the priests and said you know, will a man rob God?

00:25:33.163 --> 00:25:36.736
<v Speaker 1>We'll get more of that in just a moment, but in other words he's, you know.

00:25:36.736 --> 00:25:40.506
<v Speaker 1>So they never really repented from that day 400 years.

00:25:40.506 --> 00:25:48.596
<v Speaker 1>And then God went silent because they kept rejecting the prophets, they kept killing the prophets, they kept, you know, ignoring the prophets.

00:25:48.596 --> 00:25:55.154
<v Speaker 1>The prophets spoke for God and they backslid and they were scattered through the whole world.

00:25:55.154 --> 00:25:56.921
<v Speaker 1>They'd suffered and they'd lost.

00:25:56.921 --> 00:25:59.876
<v Speaker 1>And here they are now, 400 years later.

00:25:59.936 --> 00:26:05.040
<v Speaker 1>John the Baptist showed up and he's not interested in talking to them about the laws of the kingdom.

00:26:05.040 --> 00:26:11.179
<v Speaker 1>He just said you, generation of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

00:26:11.179 --> 00:26:12.549
<v Speaker 1>You come out here to get baptized.

00:26:12.549 --> 00:26:14.257
<v Speaker 1>Who told you to come get baptized?

00:26:14.257 --> 00:26:16.634
<v Speaker 1>You better bring forth fruit, meat for repentance.

00:26:16.634 --> 00:26:20.590
<v Speaker 1>You better not go in this water and dip down in it and come back out of it the same.

00:26:20.590 --> 00:26:22.335
<v Speaker 1>You better make your mind up.

00:26:22.335 --> 00:26:24.079
<v Speaker 1>You're going to get lined up with the law.

00:26:24.079 --> 00:26:27.474
<v Speaker 1>The law is the Jewish law, the Jewish word.

00:26:27.474 --> 00:26:31.523
<v Speaker 1>This is what they had to obey or else be cursed.

00:26:31.523 --> 00:26:37.680
<v Speaker 1>So they've been cursed with a curse for not tithing and not giving.

00:26:37.680 --> 00:26:40.935
<v Speaker 1>How do we, how do we, rob god in tithes and offerings?

00:26:40.935 --> 00:26:41.979
<v Speaker 1>They weren't.

00:26:41.979 --> 00:26:51.522
<v Speaker 1>They weren't sowing their seed, they weren't tithing, they weren't giving over and above the tithe, and so to that group, that's still that way.

00:26:51.522 --> 00:26:52.711
<v Speaker 1>They hadn't really repented.

00:26:54.275 --> 00:27:00.095
<v Speaker 1>In luke 6, 38, jesus talking to them, and that's another version of the Sermon on the Mount.

00:27:00.095 --> 00:27:03.169
<v Speaker 1>Remember the first week we talked about the Sermon on the Mount?

00:27:03.169 --> 00:27:10.201
<v Speaker 1>We got two laws out of the Sermon on the Mount the law of priority and the law of calling.

00:27:10.201 --> 00:27:15.077
<v Speaker 1>But the same Sermon on the Mount that Luke recorded has it a little differently.

00:27:15.077 --> 00:27:16.461
<v Speaker 1>He had a different perspective.

00:27:16.461 --> 00:27:23.193
<v Speaker 1>He heard things that Matthew didn't put down.

00:27:23.193 --> 00:27:24.519
<v Speaker 1>Maybe Matthew heard it, but he wasn't inspired to put those down.

00:27:24.519 --> 00:27:26.548
<v Speaker 1>Luke heard some other things that he was inspired to put down.

00:27:26.548 --> 00:27:27.692
<v Speaker 1>It was different than Matthew.

00:27:27.692 --> 00:27:30.747
<v Speaker 1>See, there's nothing wrong with things not lining up.

00:27:30.747 --> 00:27:34.477
<v Speaker 1>You're getting a bigger picture, You're getting the whole picture.

00:27:34.856 --> 00:27:40.576
<v Speaker 1>And on the sermon on the mountain, luke, chapter six, he talks about the Beatitudes and so forth.

00:27:40.576 --> 00:27:42.863
<v Speaker 1>He talks about turn, the other cheek and all that.

00:27:42.863 --> 00:27:52.657
<v Speaker 1>And then in Luke 6, 38, he just simply Jesus stands up there to these backslidden Jews and says give and it shall be given unto you.

00:27:52.657 --> 00:28:01.219
<v Speaker 1>Good measure pressed down, shaken together, running over Shall men, give unto your bosom for the same measure that you measured out.

00:28:01.219 --> 00:28:03.010
<v Speaker 1>It'll be measured back to you again.

00:28:03.010 --> 00:28:07.239
<v Speaker 1>Just one verse in the middle of all this other stuff.

00:28:07.239 --> 00:28:20.140
<v Speaker 1>He talked to them about sowing and reaping and the massive harvest that comes back to you when you sow a seed, and reaping and the massive harvest that comes back to you when you sow a seed.

00:28:20.140 --> 00:28:20.682
<v Speaker 1>Give.

00:28:20.682 --> 00:28:21.423
<v Speaker 1>He said Well, pastor.

00:28:21.765 --> 00:28:26.828
<v Speaker 1>He didn't say tithe, well, you can't give until you tithe.

00:28:26.828 --> 00:28:28.672
<v Speaker 1>I'll make the case later.

00:28:28.672 --> 00:28:29.173
<v Speaker 1>But that's silly.

00:28:29.173 --> 00:28:34.123
<v Speaker 1>You don't sow seed by giving something that belongs to somebody else back to them.

00:28:34.123 --> 00:28:37.734
<v Speaker 1>The tithe is the Lord's, it belongs to him.

00:28:37.734 --> 00:28:37.998
<v Speaker 1>Back to them.

00:28:37.998 --> 00:28:38.849
<v Speaker 1>The tithe is the Lord's, it belongs to him.

00:28:38.849 --> 00:28:43.116
<v Speaker 1>It's not yours, it's not assigned to you.

00:28:43.116 --> 00:28:44.955
<v Speaker 1>He didn't give it to you.

00:28:44.955 --> 00:28:54.021
<v Speaker 1>He's using it to see if you'll honor him, if you'll seek him first, the kingdom of God and his righteousness.

00:28:54.021 --> 00:28:57.720
<v Speaker 1>When you tithe, you're proven that God is first.

00:28:57.720 --> 00:29:06.615
<v Speaker 1>When you tithe, when you bring the first 10th, tithing is not just 10%, it's the first 10th, it's the first 10th.

00:29:06.615 --> 00:29:11.221
<v Speaker 1>And so here in Leviticus 2730, that's what it says.

00:29:11.221 --> 00:29:15.433
<v Speaker 1>It says the tithe is the Lord's, the tithe, not a tithe.

00:29:15.433 --> 00:29:15.635
<v Speaker 1>The tithe.

00:29:15.635 --> 00:29:16.260
<v Speaker 1>There's only one tithe.

00:29:16.260 --> 00:29:17.127
<v Speaker 1>The Lord's the tithe, not a tithe.

00:29:17.127 --> 00:29:17.349
<v Speaker 1>The tithe.

00:29:17.349 --> 00:29:18.635
<v Speaker 1>There's only one tithe.

00:29:19.450 --> 00:29:25.599
<v Speaker 1>And it's the first tenth, right off the top, every first tenth of your increase.

00:29:25.599 --> 00:29:32.354
<v Speaker 1>So you think about your paycheck that you have, and let's just say you know you get a.

00:29:32.354 --> 00:29:37.903
<v Speaker 1>Let's just say you get a semi-weekly paycheck of $3,000.

00:29:37.903 --> 00:29:39.332
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, let's call it $3,000.

00:29:39.332 --> 00:29:40.755
<v Speaker 1>You're making six grand a month.

00:29:40.755 --> 00:29:44.722
<v Speaker 1>So every two weeks you get a $3,000 check.

00:29:44.722 --> 00:29:46.311
<v Speaker 1>But is it $3,000?

00:29:46.311 --> 00:29:55.442
<v Speaker 1>Well, no, it's not, because HR takes out of it your income taxes, your social security and anything else that you designated.

00:29:55.442 --> 00:30:02.101
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you're, maybe you're putting into a 401k or whatever, and then they match it or maybe they don't.

00:30:02.101 --> 00:30:13.298
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's a lot of different things that happen and what you're wound up with is the net amount of the check, but the tithe is all of it, the first 10th of the whole thing Now.

00:30:13.317 --> 00:30:15.701
<v Speaker 1>Now, maybe you've been tithing on the net.

00:30:15.701 --> 00:30:22.291
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know fine, but I want God to participate in my tax paying and I give him.

00:30:22.291 --> 00:30:24.861
<v Speaker 1>That was my money before they took it out.

00:30:24.861 --> 00:30:26.897
<v Speaker 1>I earned every dollar of it.

00:30:26.897 --> 00:30:29.089
<v Speaker 1>They pulled it out of my account.

00:30:29.089 --> 00:30:30.074
<v Speaker 1>See, that is a.

00:30:30.074 --> 00:30:31.589
<v Speaker 1>You know what it's.

00:30:31.589 --> 00:30:38.180
<v Speaker 1>Almost it should be illegal for them to do it, but the churches sat around and let them start doing this years ago.

00:30:38.180 --> 00:30:40.717
<v Speaker 1>I mean, the income tax is bad enough.

00:30:40.717 --> 00:30:42.317
<v Speaker 1>We should never have allowed that.

00:30:42.317 --> 00:30:45.253
<v Speaker 1>That is wrong.

00:30:45.253 --> 00:30:47.299
<v Speaker 1>And look at them.

00:30:47.299 --> 00:30:53.401
<v Speaker 1>They're over there spending money they don't have on crazy stuff that we don't believe in.

00:30:53.401 --> 00:31:00.132
<v Speaker 1>I mean, isn't it time the church grow a brain and do something about this?

00:31:00.132 --> 00:31:04.643
<v Speaker 1>We can't do it all at once, but we can start making some steps, can't we?

00:31:06.730 --> 00:31:12.522
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about the tithe, and that belongs to the Lord, just like the tree in the garden.

00:31:12.522 --> 00:31:17.692
<v Speaker 1>You can eat of every tree in the garden, but don't eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

00:31:17.692 --> 00:31:21.136
<v Speaker 1>Don't, don't eat that fruit.

00:31:21.136 --> 00:31:26.692
<v Speaker 1>See, god reserved a tree to make sure that he was first.

00:31:26.692 --> 00:31:28.013
<v Speaker 1>See, god is still God.

00:31:28.013 --> 00:31:28.776
<v Speaker 1>They weren't God.

00:31:28.776 --> 00:31:29.396
<v Speaker 1>He's God.

00:31:29.396 --> 00:31:35.474
<v Speaker 1>We're in Christ, but we're not God, and so we are.

00:31:35.535 --> 00:31:43.778
<v Speaker 1>The tithe means, when you do the tithe and obey him in the tithe, well, pastor, we don't keep the law.

00:31:43.778 --> 00:31:45.442
<v Speaker 1>Well, the tithe is not in the law.

00:31:45.442 --> 00:31:46.931
<v Speaker 1>The tithe was in the garden.

00:31:46.931 --> 00:31:58.476
<v Speaker 1>The tithe was taught to to Cain and Abel by their father, adam, and that was the first murder in the Bible was over the tithe.

00:32:00.195 --> 00:32:04.619
<v Speaker 1>So don't tell me about tithing doesn't apply to the church, because it does.

00:32:04.619 --> 00:32:11.076
<v Speaker 1>Jesus said you know that here men receive tithes, but there he receiveth them.

00:32:11.076 --> 00:32:15.039
<v Speaker 1>If Jesus receives them, then he's due them.

00:32:15.039 --> 00:32:25.155
<v Speaker 1>I mean, remember we're in Abraham, we're the seed of Abraham, and Abraham paid tithes to Melchizedek, which is a type of Christ.

00:32:25.155 --> 00:32:33.200
<v Speaker 1>So don't tell me that we're free from tithing because we're not in the law anymore, that we just give whatever we feel like giving.

00:32:33.269 --> 00:32:35.438
<v Speaker 1>Well, you can do that all you want to, and I'm not here.

00:32:35.438 --> 00:32:44.900
<v Speaker 1>I'm here to tell you what the Word says, and you can decide whether you want to keep being disobedient and sinning, because it's a sin to disobey God.

00:32:44.900 --> 00:32:51.300
<v Speaker 1>He didn't suggest it, he put it in as a cardinal, foundational truth.

00:32:51.300 --> 00:32:57.251
<v Speaker 1>Is it too hard for you to hear, see?

00:32:57.251 --> 00:32:59.359
<v Speaker 1>I mean, then you need to make an adjustment.

00:32:59.359 --> 00:33:03.838
<v Speaker 1>You've heard wrong, somebody told you wrong and you believed wrong.

00:33:03.838 --> 00:33:07.000
<v Speaker 1>That's my job to get you moved over to the truth.

00:33:07.000 --> 00:33:09.996
<v Speaker 1>We just trying to get my money?

00:33:09.996 --> 00:33:10.657
<v Speaker 1>No, it's not.

00:33:10.657 --> 00:33:13.096
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to help you get money.

00:33:13.096 --> 00:33:15.054
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to help you get a bigger supply.

00:33:18.061 --> 00:33:20.336
<v Speaker 1>All right, so the tithe is the Lord's.

00:33:20.336 --> 00:33:24.914
<v Speaker 1>Leviticus 2730 is also in Numbers Hebrews 7, 8.

00:33:24.914 --> 00:33:28.857
<v Speaker 1>Here men receive tithes, here men that die receive tithes.

00:33:28.857 --> 00:33:32.361
<v Speaker 1>So I, in a way, here in a little while we're going to receive your tithes.

00:33:32.361 --> 00:33:39.673
<v Speaker 1>We're the depository, we're the storehouse, but when you do that, god receives them.

00:33:39.673 --> 00:33:40.816
<v Speaker 1>Up there, it's spiritual.

00:33:40.816 --> 00:33:43.961
<v Speaker 1>God keeps the books too.

00:33:43.961 --> 00:33:46.305
<v Speaker 1>He knows whether you do or don't.

00:33:46.305 --> 00:33:50.579
<v Speaker 1>And then, after you, tithe is when you give offerings over and above the tithe.

00:33:50.579 --> 00:33:58.114
<v Speaker 1>And that's when Israel had robbed God, not only in tithes, but in tithes and offerings, they had stopped offerings, they had not given.

00:33:58.193 --> 00:34:10.117
<v Speaker 1>Over and above Offerings are what you do in order to receive from the benefits of the laws of sowing and reaping the 30, the 60, the 100-fold.

00:34:10.117 --> 00:34:13.237
<v Speaker 1>Well, I've never seen a 100-fold.

00:34:13.237 --> 00:34:22.088
<v Speaker 1>Well, 100-fold, just think about a, a hundredfold as this, having the maximum available, the maximum multiplication available.

00:34:22.088 --> 00:34:38.561
<v Speaker 1>If you'll think about it that way, because sometimes you know, your faith has got varying levels of, you have varying faith, so sometimes your faith not going to produce much multiplication, because you're still kind of, you know, trying this out and you're not really sure all the way that it's really working.

00:34:38.561 --> 00:35:02.873
<v Speaker 1>And so you started tithing and so you started giving over and above the tithe and you're a little bit nervous about it and it doesn't look like it's going to work at first, because you've got all these bills that you amassed, that you that you know, put on the table without any thought of God, without any thought of the tithe, without any thought of offerings.

00:35:02.873 --> 00:35:04.820
<v Speaker 1>You just adopted this lifestyle and you've got this big nut to crack every month.

00:35:04.820 --> 00:35:07.110
<v Speaker 1>And when I start talking about tithing, you go I don't think I can do that.

00:35:07.110 --> 00:35:08.351
<v Speaker 1>Yes, you can, you can.

00:35:08.351 --> 00:35:12.219
<v Speaker 1>You just won't you can because why.

00:35:12.219 --> 00:35:13.242
<v Speaker 1>It's off the top.

00:35:13.242 --> 00:35:16.157
<v Speaker 1>It's before, it's before electricity is.

00:35:16.157 --> 00:35:21.039
<v Speaker 1>It's before the mortgage, it's before the credit card, it's before everything else.

00:35:21.039 --> 00:35:22.782
<v Speaker 1>It's right off the top is tithe.

00:35:22.782 --> 00:35:29.780
<v Speaker 1>I've seen people in really bad shape, financially, messed up, bad.

00:35:29.780 --> 00:35:31.344
<v Speaker 1>I've been there.

00:35:31.344 --> 00:35:36.601
<v Speaker 1>I never quit tithing, never.

00:35:36.601 --> 00:35:38.576
<v Speaker 1>Well, how does it work?

00:35:38.576 --> 00:35:40.596
<v Speaker 1>He said prove me now, here with the tithe.

00:35:40.615 --> 00:35:41.659
<v Speaker 1>Let's look at Malachi.

00:35:41.659 --> 00:35:43.697
<v Speaker 1>Look at Malachi, chapter 3.

00:35:43.697 --> 00:35:48.851
<v Speaker 1>See, these people were under the same rebuke, malachi.

00:35:48.851 --> 00:35:53.137
<v Speaker 1>See, when they rejected Malachi, god quit talking to Israel with the prophet.

00:35:53.137 --> 00:35:55.096
<v Speaker 1>There was no prophet until John the Baptist.

00:35:55.096 --> 00:35:58.597
<v Speaker 1>And then, right after John, and John the Baptist had a very narrow focus.

00:35:58.597 --> 00:36:02.221
<v Speaker 1>His job was to prepare them for the coming of the Lord.

00:36:02.221 --> 00:36:03.735
<v Speaker 1>The Lord came right behind them.

00:36:03.735 --> 00:36:04.853
<v Speaker 1>And the Lord.

00:36:05.615 --> 00:36:17.275
<v Speaker 1>On Luke, chapter four, just before chapter six, he stood up in the synagogue and said the spirit of the Lord is upon me because he's anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor, first on the list.

00:36:17.275 --> 00:36:21.496
<v Speaker 1>So this is part of the gospel to the poor.

00:36:21.496 --> 00:36:23.481
<v Speaker 1>Luke 6, 38 was good news.

00:36:23.481 --> 00:36:24.452
<v Speaker 1>Hey, good news.

00:36:24.452 --> 00:36:27.021
<v Speaker 1>You guys can have multiplication.

00:36:27.021 --> 00:36:36.532
<v Speaker 1>You don't have to be pouring under the heel of Caesar, you can have an independent supply.

00:36:36.532 --> 00:36:40.121
<v Speaker 1>See, that was good news to them, even though they hadn't been doing right.

00:36:41.753 --> 00:36:43.539
<v Speaker 1>See, all it takes is a moment to repent.

00:36:43.539 --> 00:36:53.295
<v Speaker 1>All it takes is to change your mind and obey Malachi, chapter 3, verse 8 will a man rob God?

00:36:53.295 --> 00:36:57.496
<v Speaker 1>Yet you've robbed me, but you say where in have we robbed thee?

00:36:57.496 --> 00:36:58.735
<v Speaker 1>And this is the priesthood.

00:36:58.735 --> 00:36:59.757
<v Speaker 1>See, these are the priests.

00:36:59.757 --> 00:37:02.835
<v Speaker 1>This is not just Israel in general, this is the top of the top.

00:37:02.835 --> 00:37:06.780
<v Speaker 1>These are the guys that are supposed to be teaching the people what to do.

00:37:06.780 --> 00:37:12.117
<v Speaker 1>They're supposed to live of the tithe and they're supposed to tithe of the tithe.

00:37:12.117 --> 00:37:18.182
<v Speaker 1>They get the tithe, and that's what they live off of, and then they're supposed to tithe it.

00:37:18.182 --> 00:37:21.496
<v Speaker 1>How have we robbed you?

00:37:21.496 --> 00:37:29.898
<v Speaker 1>How have we robbed In tithes and offerings you have?

00:37:29.898 --> 00:37:33.494
<v Speaker 1>You are cursed with a curse, for you have robbed me, even this whole nation.

00:37:33.494 --> 00:37:37.838
<v Speaker 1>Bring ye all the tithes, the entire tithe, the whole tithe.

00:37:37.949 --> 00:37:41.601
<v Speaker 1>Don't just tithe on part of it and leave the other off.

00:37:41.601 --> 00:37:44.159
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know that inheritance is different.

00:37:44.159 --> 00:37:45.438
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to tithe on that.

00:37:45.438 --> 00:37:47.097
<v Speaker 1>Mama left me 50,000.

00:37:47.097 --> 00:37:49.130
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to tithe on that, that's just.

00:37:49.130 --> 00:37:51.634
<v Speaker 1>She already tithed on it and I don't.

00:37:51.634 --> 00:37:57.101
<v Speaker 1>No, you need to tithe on your inheritance Mama gave you.

00:37:57.101 --> 00:37:59.304
<v Speaker 1>You're cheating God, you're cheating yourself.

00:37:59.304 --> 00:38:00.385
<v Speaker 1>You're robbing.

00:38:00.385 --> 00:38:05.621
<v Speaker 1>So you have robbed God.

00:38:06.789 --> 00:38:16.682
<v Speaker 1>Brother Osteen used to let people off the hook and he was so kind and so loving He'd say you know, it's not that God cares about getting your money, he's robbed of the opportunity to bless you.

00:38:16.682 --> 00:38:22.672
<v Speaker 1>Well, that's true enough, but really, on your side, you just stole from God Almighty.

00:38:22.672 --> 00:38:23.954
<v Speaker 1>Let's call it what it is.

00:38:23.954 --> 00:38:28.581
<v Speaker 1>Let's expose what it is not to tithe for what it is.

00:38:28.581 --> 00:38:30.364
<v Speaker 1>It is stealing from God.

00:38:33.489 --> 00:38:40.539
<v Speaker 1>You're taking what belongs to him away and you're saying no, no, no, I need this, I have control of it and I'm going to use it for something else.

00:38:40.539 --> 00:38:43.753
<v Speaker 1>Is that right?

00:38:43.753 --> 00:38:44.697
<v Speaker 1>Is that sinful?

00:38:44.697 --> 00:38:45.320
<v Speaker 1>What is that?

00:38:45.320 --> 00:38:49.201
<v Speaker 1>Can you call Jesus Lord and have that kind of attitude?

00:38:49.201 --> 00:38:51.659
<v Speaker 1>Now you can do it ignorantly because you weren't taught right.

00:38:51.659 --> 00:38:52.891
<v Speaker 1>That's why I'm teaching the hard.

00:38:52.891 --> 00:38:58.317
<v Speaker 1>This is maybe kind of grating on some of your ears, because you've never heard it brought this way.

00:38:58.317 --> 00:38:59.257
<v Speaker 1>I'm bold.

00:38:59.257 --> 00:39:02.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't care whether you think I want to get rich off of you or not.

00:39:02.240 --> 00:39:02.842
<v Speaker 1>I don't.

00:39:02.842 --> 00:39:06.244
<v Speaker 1>He's my supply, not you.

00:39:06.244 --> 00:39:07.827
<v Speaker 1>Boy, I'm glad you're not my supply.

00:39:07.827 --> 00:39:20.434
<v Speaker 1>I really am glad I've had people through this church that I'm real glad that they weren't my supply.

00:39:20.434 --> 00:39:22.280
<v Speaker 1>I'd have been starved to death a long time ago.

00:39:22.280 --> 00:39:24.795
<v Speaker 1>But no, I have a supply.

00:39:24.795 --> 00:39:26.561
<v Speaker 1>Are y'all with me now?

00:39:29.510 --> 00:39:43.942
<v Speaker 1>You're cursed with a curse You've stolen from God and really what you're doing is you're cheating yourself because Jesus took your curse and now you're willingly walking in it here.

00:39:43.942 --> 00:39:52.762
<v Speaker 1>Jesus paid for all that to go away and you're willingly walking, resisting his laws that are.

00:39:52.762 --> 00:39:54.688
<v Speaker 1>They can't be changed.

00:39:54.688 --> 00:40:10.387
<v Speaker 1>Jesus said I mean God said in Genesis 8, after the flood, he said night and day, cold and winter, and seed time and harvest will not depart as long as the earth remaineth.

00:40:10.387 --> 00:40:13.900
<v Speaker 1>It can't be changed.

00:40:13.900 --> 00:40:18.701
<v Speaker 1>Is the earth still remaining, or has the Green New Deal?

00:40:18.701 --> 00:40:19.824
<v Speaker 1>Has it saved it?

00:40:19.824 --> 00:40:20.847
<v Speaker 1>Has it saved the earth?

00:40:20.847 --> 00:40:26.240
<v Speaker 1>No, the earth is still remaining, and so seed time and harvest is still in place.

00:40:26.240 --> 00:40:27.422
<v Speaker 1>So it's a law.

00:40:27.422 --> 00:40:45.188
<v Speaker 1>It's a law, it's a law, and tithing is part of it, by returning what belongs to God, to him first, and now you've got the 90%, and now you can give out of the 90% and you can receive a multiplication on that seed that you sow.

00:40:45.188 --> 00:40:45.469
<v Speaker 1>Now.

00:40:45.469 --> 00:40:56.889
<v Speaker 1>You know now there's some other wonderful, bountiful benefits to tithing that belong to tithing, and let's get into them.

00:40:57.414 --> 00:40:58.557
<v Speaker 1>You're cursed with a curse.

00:40:58.557 --> 00:41:00.702
<v Speaker 1>You've robbed me, even this whole nation.

00:41:00.702 --> 00:41:04.278
<v Speaker 1>If the prophet lied, he wouldn't be able to say that.

00:41:04.278 --> 00:41:07.525
<v Speaker 1>If he was lying, it's in the Bible.

00:41:07.525 --> 00:41:08.588
<v Speaker 1>So God said it.

00:41:08.588 --> 00:41:12.838
<v Speaker 1>God said you robbed me, you stole from me.

00:41:12.838 --> 00:41:19.269
<v Speaker 1>Bring you the entire whole tithe into the storehouse where you eat.

00:41:19.269 --> 00:41:20.760
<v Speaker 1>This is where you eat, right here.

00:41:20.760 --> 00:41:27.704
<v Speaker 1>You don't eat at Piccadilly and pay at Luby's, or eat at Luby's and pay at Piccadilly.

00:41:28.936 --> 00:41:31.925
<v Speaker 1>Quit sending your offerings to some online preacher that you happen to like and then you don't prefer your local church.

00:41:31.925 --> 00:41:32.447
<v Speaker 1>We're worthy of your well.

00:41:32.447 --> 00:41:36.021
<v Speaker 1>First of all, that you happen to like and then you don't prefer your local church.

00:41:36.021 --> 00:41:37.659
<v Speaker 1>We're worthy of your well.

00:41:37.659 --> 00:41:39.184
<v Speaker 1>First of all, you need to tithe here.

00:41:39.184 --> 00:41:41.021
<v Speaker 1>This is your tithe, but offering.

00:41:41.021 --> 00:41:42.324
<v Speaker 1>We're worthy of your offerings.

00:41:42.324 --> 00:41:48.666
<v Speaker 1>And if you want to have a few outside the church, that's up to you, between you and God.

00:41:48.735 --> 00:41:52.326
<v Speaker 1>But I've seen people just scatter seed, you know, all over the place.

00:41:52.326 --> 00:41:59.422
<v Speaker 1>And here we are with needs that are legitimate needs for our church family, and here you're not participating.

00:41:59.422 --> 00:42:00.385
<v Speaker 1>You know that's not right.

00:42:00.385 --> 00:42:05.704
<v Speaker 1>You need to get tuned in to what God is doing.

00:42:05.704 --> 00:42:07.157
<v Speaker 1>I mean, all these other places.

00:42:07.157 --> 00:42:10.407
<v Speaker 1>Are they available when you're sad and you've lost a loved one?

00:42:10.407 --> 00:42:12.302
<v Speaker 1>Are they available to do the funeral?

00:42:12.302 --> 00:42:20.940
<v Speaker 1>Are they available to counsel your children when they're ready to go get married and you need somebody to sit down and do the wedding ceremony and we're going to counsel them.

00:42:20.940 --> 00:42:25.581
<v Speaker 1>If they're in this church, they're going to sit down for four trips and talk all about it.

00:42:25.581 --> 00:42:28.875
<v Speaker 1>Are they going to do that on the radio?

00:42:28.875 --> 00:42:31.061
<v Speaker 1>Are they going to do that online for you?

00:42:31.061 --> 00:42:34.798
<v Speaker 1>Amen, let's think about this.

00:42:34.920 --> 00:42:40.822
<v Speaker 1>Right, bring all the tithes into the storehouse.

00:42:40.822 --> 00:42:42.000
<v Speaker 1>Now, this is about the tithe.

00:42:42.000 --> 00:42:48.262
<v Speaker 1>Everybody say the tithe, the first tenth that there may be meat in mine house.

00:42:48.262 --> 00:42:52.847
<v Speaker 1>So when you tithe in a local church, you're going to get food that you can digest and eat.

00:42:52.847 --> 00:42:56.902
<v Speaker 1>It's going to grow your spirit Again.

00:42:56.902 --> 00:43:00.349
<v Speaker 1>It's the law of sowing and reaping, kind of in disguise.

00:43:02.856 --> 00:43:05.681
<v Speaker 1>And prove me now herewith.

00:43:05.681 --> 00:43:18.369
<v Speaker 1>That's the only place in the Bible where I see God inviting us to prove him or to put him to the test here with your tithe, if I will not open you the windows of heaven.

00:43:18.369 --> 00:43:24.768
<v Speaker 1>The windows of heaven were opened on the flood, pretty big windows.

00:43:24.768 --> 00:43:30.635
<v Speaker 1>But you know, really we don't need windows in heaven, because we've got heaven down on the inside.

00:43:30.635 --> 00:43:32.539
<v Speaker 1>We've got the Holy ghost living on the inside of us.

00:43:32.539 --> 00:43:36.288
<v Speaker 1>They didn't have that in Israel, but we have it.

00:43:36.288 --> 00:43:38.501
<v Speaker 1>We have everything we need right inside of us.

00:43:38.501 --> 00:43:43.282
<v Speaker 1>He's there, windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing.

00:43:43.282 --> 00:43:44.900
<v Speaker 1>There's not room enough to receive it.

00:43:44.920 --> 00:44:00.003
<v Speaker 1>It's not talking about money, because if he poured out money and just printed money and rained it out on you, you woke up one morning and like manna you know, he had made manna in the wilderness.

00:44:00.003 --> 00:44:00.590
<v Speaker 1>All of a sudden you woke up some morning.

00:44:00.590 --> 00:44:05.277
<v Speaker 1>You walked through the dining room and you had a stack of hundred dollar bills laying all over the dining room table.

00:44:05.277 --> 00:44:06.260
<v Speaker 1>It rained last night.

00:44:06.260 --> 00:44:09.766
<v Speaker 1>I got I got $5 million on the dining room table.

00:44:09.766 --> 00:44:10.188
<v Speaker 1>Wow.

00:44:10.188 --> 00:44:15.266
<v Speaker 1>No, he doesn't rain money out because he doesn't have money in heaven.

00:44:15.266 --> 00:44:19.364
<v Speaker 1>I guess the closest thing he's got gold streets He'd have to break.

00:44:19.364 --> 00:44:25.467
<v Speaker 1>Break the streets up and that would hurt if you threw those out of heaven on top of you.

00:44:25.467 --> 00:44:30.445
<v Speaker 1>No, he's everything and we have in need is down here.

00:44:30.445 --> 00:44:33.541
<v Speaker 1>So blessing see what is blessings.

00:44:33.541 --> 00:44:36.657
<v Speaker 1>We'll get into that next week ideas, concepts and insights.

00:44:36.657 --> 00:44:44.474
<v Speaker 1>One idea from God because you're a tither can make you rich, amen.

00:44:44.994 --> 00:45:00.786
<v Speaker 1>Henry Ford was a tither, anti-semite, he was a goofball, and the Ford Foundation is so fouled up liberal, took over Rockefeller and the Fords all the liberals and they didn't do a good job of their wealth being contained.

00:45:00.786 --> 00:45:04.882
<v Speaker 1>And now they've lost control of their wealth and it goes into horrible things.

00:45:04.882 --> 00:45:19.755
<v Speaker 1>But Henry Ford was a tither, as was John D Rockefeller they're both tithers and he had the idea of the production line, assembly line.

00:45:19.755 --> 00:45:32.844
<v Speaker 1>It transformed the United States automobile manufacturing and also all of the agricultural tractors, heavy machines, everything you talk about the industrial revolution.

00:45:32.844 --> 00:45:37.396
<v Speaker 1>That idea came as an idea from heaven to tithers.

00:45:37.396 --> 00:45:41.367
<v Speaker 1>John D Rockefeller was had a severe.

00:45:41.367 --> 00:45:50.527
<v Speaker 1>He was very rich man and he had a terrible ulcer in his stomach, was miserable and was planning on dying.

00:45:50.527 --> 00:45:58.246
<v Speaker 1>And he had so much money, you know, and he, he and talking to Henry Ford and they were talking about it and Ford told him well, I'm a tither, so he's.

00:45:58.246 --> 00:46:04.532
<v Speaker 1>So John D Rockefeller started giving his money away and he got richer and richer and he got healed.

00:46:04.532 --> 00:46:06.096
<v Speaker 1>He lived to be into his nineties.

00:46:09.382 --> 00:46:14.929
<v Speaker 1>So these laws work, even for people that aren't really that spiritual.

00:46:14.929 --> 00:46:17.097
<v Speaker 1>So what is it?

00:46:17.097 --> 00:46:22.487
<v Speaker 1>You know, profit a man if he gained the whole world and lose his own soul, all right.

00:46:22.487 --> 00:46:32.166
<v Speaker 1>So if you tithe, bring it all into the storehouse, I'll open up the windows of heaven, pour you out ideas, concepts and insights until you say, lord, lord, can you hold up on those?

00:46:32.166 --> 00:46:34.208
<v Speaker 1>I can only process so much.

00:46:34.208 --> 00:46:41.132
<v Speaker 1>And insights until you say, lord, can you hold up on those?

00:46:41.132 --> 00:46:41.896
<v Speaker 1>I can only process so much.

00:46:41.916 --> 00:46:44.849
<v Speaker 1>And then he said number two I'll rebuke the devourer for your sakes.

00:46:44.849 --> 00:46:46.925
<v Speaker 1>He will protect your assets.

00:46:46.925 --> 00:46:51.523
<v Speaker 1>See, I reminded God he's protecting my assets with that storm coming rolling through here Thursday night.

00:46:51.523 --> 00:46:55.282
<v Speaker 1>You have to say something.

00:46:55.282 --> 00:46:57.382
<v Speaker 1>You have to know why you're saying it.

00:46:57.382 --> 00:47:01.585
<v Speaker 1>See, I'm real heavy on what my benefits are being a tither.

00:47:01.585 --> 00:47:06.063
<v Speaker 1>He'll protect my assets.

00:47:06.063 --> 00:47:14.003
<v Speaker 1>And then, if something does happen and I lose something or I get something stolen or something, well, god, you're going to replace that, because I need that.

00:47:14.003 --> 00:47:17.840
<v Speaker 1>Are y'all with me on that?

00:47:17.840 --> 00:47:25.641
<v Speaker 1>And then it says he will not destroy the fruit of your ground, neither shall your vine cast your fruit for the time of the field.

00:47:25.641 --> 00:47:26.565
<v Speaker 1>Saith the Lord of hosts.

00:47:26.565 --> 00:47:28.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we talked about that.

00:47:28.494 --> 00:47:36.847
<v Speaker 1>You know, gladys and I have quoted that with our granddaughter, thea, when she had that massive wreck and was hauled away in a life flight helicopter.

00:47:36.847 --> 00:47:43.159
<v Speaker 1>We didn't know how she was, we didn't get a report, we just knew she was alive, that's all.

00:47:43.159 --> 00:47:44.242
<v Speaker 1>And it was a lot of blood.

00:47:44.242 --> 00:47:45.706
<v Speaker 1>That's all we knew.

00:47:45.706 --> 00:47:50.940
<v Speaker 1>I said, god, you said you'd protect our assets, our granddaughter's precious to us.

00:47:50.940 --> 00:47:52.454
<v Speaker 1>She's an asset to this family.

00:47:52.454 --> 00:47:55.945
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I use it so many ways.

00:47:55.945 --> 00:48:04.626
<v Speaker 1>And they sent her home that very same night with a Band-Aid and a Tylenol.

00:48:04.626 --> 00:48:11.264
<v Speaker 1>I don't know anybody that gets hauled to the hospital like that and is sent back home the same night five hours later.

00:48:12.235 --> 00:48:14.443
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you God has everything to do with it.

00:48:14.443 --> 00:48:21.802
<v Speaker 1>Are y'all getting anything out of this?

00:48:21.802 --> 00:48:26.742
<v Speaker 1>He'll protect your assets.

00:48:26.742 --> 00:48:29.920
<v Speaker 1>He do not destroy the fruits of your ground.

00:48:29.920 --> 00:48:32.536
<v Speaker 1>Neither shall your vine cast your fruit, for it's time in the field.

00:48:32.536 --> 00:48:39.960
<v Speaker 1>Saith the Lord of hosts and all nations number the third thing all nations shall call you blessed, for you shall be a delightsome land.

00:48:39.960 --> 00:48:41.065
<v Speaker 1>Saith the Lord of hosts.

00:48:41.065 --> 00:48:45.539
<v Speaker 1>In other words, the nations will be kindly affectionate toward you.

00:48:45.539 --> 00:48:47.083
<v Speaker 1>You'll get favor.

00:48:47.083 --> 00:48:49.349
<v Speaker 1>What that's talking about is favor.

00:48:49.349 --> 00:48:58.889
<v Speaker 1>Your tithe brings a favor in a direction that's consistent with your purpose in life and calling life.

00:48:58.889 --> 00:49:04.364
<v Speaker 1>It's not 360 degrees anywhere you go, it's favor in a particular direction.

00:49:04.364 --> 00:49:05.599
<v Speaker 1>More about that next week.

00:49:05.599 --> 00:49:09.965
<v Speaker 1>It's not just favor with everybody everywhere every time.

00:49:09.965 --> 00:49:14.400
<v Speaker 1>No, it's favor in a direction, the right direction.

00:49:14.400 --> 00:49:21.103
<v Speaker 1>You need favor to go in that direction, and so those are the benefits of tithing.

00:49:21.985 --> 00:49:29.048
<v Speaker 1>So tithing proves that you serve God, that you put him first, that he's number one because you give him back.

00:49:29.048 --> 00:49:38.224
<v Speaker 1>See, it all belongs to him, and all you have to do to express that your belief in that is to give him the first tenth.

00:49:38.224 --> 00:49:43.806
<v Speaker 1>He really he could ask for all of it, but he doesn't.

00:49:43.806 --> 00:49:45.320
<v Speaker 1>He just asks for the first tenth.

00:49:45.320 --> 00:49:56.981
<v Speaker 1>So that you will know, and he will know that you do have that attitude, that you honor God with your substance and with the first fruits of all your increase, see Proverbs 3, 9 and 10.

00:49:56.981 --> 00:50:01.503
<v Speaker 1>So shall your barns be filled with plenty and your presses are burst out with new wines.

00:50:01.503 --> 00:50:06.563
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know things will go well for you when you tithe.

00:50:08.576 --> 00:50:10.963
<v Speaker 1>And then offerings prove that you love God.

00:50:10.963 --> 00:50:12.146
<v Speaker 1>What?

00:50:12.146 --> 00:50:15.039
<v Speaker 1>Let's turn real quick.

00:50:15.039 --> 00:50:16.860
<v Speaker 1>It's worth looking at 2 Corinthians 8.

00:50:16.860 --> 00:50:21.945
<v Speaker 1>Ty proves that you love God and put him first.

00:50:21.945 --> 00:50:25.242
<v Speaker 1>Offerings prove that you love the church.

00:50:25.242 --> 00:50:29.820
<v Speaker 1>You love Jesus, verse 24.

00:50:29.820 --> 00:50:33.282
<v Speaker 1>Paul is receiving an offering from the Corinthians, and he said wherefore, verse 24,.

00:50:33.282 --> 00:50:42.445
<v Speaker 1>Paul is receiving an offering from the Corinthians and he said wherefore, verse 24, wherefore, show you to them and for the churches, the proof of your love.

00:50:42.445 --> 00:50:44.402
<v Speaker 1>He's talking about this offering that he's raising.

00:50:44.402 --> 00:50:48.545
<v Speaker 1>Show them the proof of your love.

00:50:48.545 --> 00:50:51.103
<v Speaker 1>See, if you love me, give.

00:50:54.215 --> 00:50:57.565
<v Speaker 1>People say, oh, pastor, I just love you, I just love this church.

00:50:57.565 --> 00:51:01.963
<v Speaker 1>And then you look at their giving record ain't one.

00:51:01.963 --> 00:51:08.108
<v Speaker 1>So their words are cheap, their words don't have anything behind them.

00:51:08.108 --> 00:51:09.192
<v Speaker 1>God sees all this.

00:51:09.192 --> 00:51:23.025
<v Speaker 1>I don't go looking through, I don't go mucking through the giving records very often, but we do when somebody needs something and wants help with an electric bill or a rent or a car payment.

00:51:23.045 --> 00:51:29.385
<v Speaker 1>You know we do have a benevolence fund and one of the things that we do when we consider helping someone is to see what they've done in the area of giving.

00:51:29.385 --> 00:51:30.188
<v Speaker 1>Are they tithing?

00:51:30.188 --> 00:51:38.168
<v Speaker 1>Because if they're not tithing, then we can use that, as I'm not saying we wouldn't help them, I'm just saying now we can give them a little encouragement.

00:51:38.168 --> 00:51:39.918
<v Speaker 1>You know, here's some things that we see.

00:51:39.918 --> 00:51:40.500
<v Speaker 1>I mean, are you?

00:51:40.500 --> 00:51:41.844
<v Speaker 1>You know we can ask the question.

00:51:41.844 --> 00:51:53.543
<v Speaker 1>Then, see, you're asking us for help and so we have every right then to not just throw money down a dark hole where it's just going to disappear because you're not handling the money correctly.

00:51:53.543 --> 00:51:54.865
<v Speaker 1>We're going to try to help.

00:51:54.925 --> 00:52:03.621
<v Speaker 1>You see, the truth of the Word of God, it's not just helping anybody today, see, we don't just throw money down a drain, we have to give an account too.

00:52:03.621 --> 00:52:07.699
<v Speaker 1>And we've done it.

00:52:07.699 --> 00:52:09.402
<v Speaker 1>And people get help.

00:52:09.402 --> 00:52:10.050
<v Speaker 1>Praise God, oh hallelujah.

00:52:10.050 --> 00:52:10.474
<v Speaker 1>People get help.

00:52:10.474 --> 00:52:16.338
<v Speaker 1>Praise God, oh hallelujah.

00:52:16.338 --> 00:52:45.681
<v Speaker 1>So you know, the bottom line is, when you cooperate with these laws the law of serving, the law of calling, the law of use, the law of sowing and reaping, the laws of tithing when you cooperate with all these kingdom laws that cannot be denied, they're through the Bible over and over when you cooperate, then you cause your supply to become sure and you can depend on God doing his part.

00:52:45.681 --> 00:52:47.327
<v Speaker 1>When you do your part, lift your hands and receive today, hallelujah.

00:52:47.327 --> 00:52:48.088
<v Speaker 1>Glory to God.

00:52:48.088 --> 00:52:51.175
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, jesus, receiving your kingdom supply.

00:52:51.175 --> 00:52:53.518
<v Speaker 1>How many of you got something out of this message today?

00:52:53.518 --> 00:52:56.099
<v Speaker 1>Praise God, hallelujah.
