00:00:01,815 --> 00:00:04,555
>> Speaker A: Welcome to NECF Sermons.

2
00:00:05,015 --> 00:00:07,711
Each message here is designed to

3
00:00:07,743 --> 00:00:10,575
uplift and strengthen you in your walk with

4
00:00:10,615 --> 00:00:13,471
God. Don't miss out. Stay

5
00:00:13,503 --> 00:00:16,287
with us until the end. For a rewarding

6
00:00:16,431 --> 00:00:19,155
experience. Let's dive right in.

7
00:00:22,815 --> 00:00:25,743
>> Speaker B: Amen. Yes. So we'll quickly continue

8
00:00:25,799 --> 00:00:27,595
from where we stopped. Amen.

9
00:00:28,010 --> 00:00:30,673
but before then, I would just like

10
00:00:30,809 --> 00:00:33,369
at least five people. Ten people. Can we

11
00:00:33,417 --> 00:00:36,305
type what we've been learning regarding how to

12
00:00:36,345 --> 00:00:37,645
prepare for the year?

13
00:00:39,225 --> 00:00:42,073
Let me get a response from each and every one of us. Let me get

14
00:00:42,089 --> 00:00:44,825
a response. You can just type it on the chat

15
00:00:44,865 --> 00:00:47,313
box. Let me open my chat box so that I can

16
00:00:47,369 --> 00:00:50,281
see. Yes. Can we

17
00:00:50,313 --> 00:00:53,277
type it? Everybody, what have

18
00:00:53,301 --> 00:00:55,225
we been learning? Can we type it?

19
00:00:58,165 --> 00:01:01,029
Okay. The way to maximize time is to stay in obedience

20
00:01:01,077 --> 00:01:03,605
to God's will found in his Word. Giving

21
00:01:03,645 --> 00:01:06,519
ourselves much more to the study of the Word and, being

22
00:01:06,591 --> 00:01:09,543
committed to your local church. My profitability

23
00:01:09,663 --> 00:01:12,391
relies on how I spend time in the world.

24
00:01:12,447 --> 00:01:14,803
Okay. Yes.

25
00:01:16,463 --> 00:01:19,111
Walking and living in the word of God, being

26
00:01:19,167 --> 00:01:22,153
led of the Spirit. Okay. Never

27
00:01:22,193 --> 00:01:25,019
miss any gathering of believers, and effectively participating

28
00:01:25,051 --> 00:01:27,931
in them. No excuse. Okay. In this

29
00:01:27,987 --> 00:01:30,955
new year, I need to pray more than

30
00:01:30,979 --> 00:01:33,499
I plan. Yes. So it's good to plan, but

31
00:01:33,531 --> 00:01:36,403
it'excellent to pray more. It's good to

32
00:01:36,443 --> 00:01:39,203
plan. You hear what I'm saying? It's good to

33
00:01:39,243 --> 00:01:42,227
plan, but it is what'more excellent

34
00:01:42,395 --> 00:01:45,299
to pray. If you don't pray, you will be

35
00:01:45,331 --> 00:01:48,309
anxious about everything. Yes. You will

36
00:01:48,341 --> 00:01:50,733
be anxious. You will be caught up in the wayb of

37
00:01:50,773 --> 00:01:53,605
being so afraid of everything.

38
00:01:53,709 --> 00:01:54,793
Yes. Yes.

39
00:01:56,813 --> 00:01:59,513
Never miss any gathering of believers.

40
00:02:00,133 --> 00:02:03,113
Effectively participate in a local church.

41
00:02:03,853 --> 00:02:06,038
Participate in the gathering where saints are.

42
00:02:06,373 --> 00:02:08,033
participate there. Yes.

43
00:02:09,413 --> 00:02:12,021
Yes. Working according to what the words deems

44
00:02:12,117 --> 00:02:14,728
good. The use of our,

45
00:02:14,728 --> 00:02:17,234
time. I think you need to expand on that. I

46
00:02:17,250 --> 00:02:20,246
didn't rightly get what you meant there,

47
00:02:21,066 --> 00:02:23,946
Christopher. Ye

48
00:02:24,026 --> 00:02:26,866
strengthened your supernatural relationship. Amen.

49
00:02:26,906 --> 00:02:29,626
Yeah. So which. Which I will just build on this

50
00:02:29,666 --> 00:02:32,618
evening. Don't leave anything to chance.

51
00:02:32,722 --> 00:02:35,166
Yes. Pray about

52
00:02:35,546 --> 00:02:38,122
everything. Melina. Don't leave anything to

53
00:02:38,154 --> 00:02:40,542
chance. Pray about everything.

54
00:02:40,694 --> 00:02:43,246
Time is a gift. So we must see time

55
00:02:43,406 --> 00:02:46,062
in purpose. And we must see that purpose in

56
00:02:46,094 --> 00:02:48,878
fulfilling God's will. Thank

57
00:02:48,902 --> 00:02:51,702
you. A wise person is one

58
00:02:51,734 --> 00:02:54,110
who understands what the will of God is.

59
00:02:54,198 --> 00:02:56,886
Yes. Pray, walk

60
00:02:56,966 --> 00:02:59,598
and walk according to the will of God.

61
00:02:59,662 --> 00:03:00,946
Yes. Yes.

62
00:03:02,606 --> 00:03:05,319
The reason as, believers why we

63
00:03:05,375 --> 00:03:08,225
redeem time is important, is to

64
00:03:08,273 --> 00:03:10,661
do the will of God.

65
00:03:11,921 --> 00:03:14,721
The way to maximize your time is to

66
00:03:14,761 --> 00:03:17,361
get engaged in the practice of the

67
00:03:17,401 --> 00:03:19,501
written word. Yes.

68
00:03:20,921 --> 00:03:23,689
Value your supernatural relationship. So I must pay

69
00:03:23,745 --> 00:03:26,633
attention to the Word of God this year.

70
00:03:26,817 --> 00:03:29,793
Why? Because the word of God is my resource.

71
00:03:29,937 --> 00:03:32,913
Yes. I judge all seasons with

72
00:03:32,937 --> 00:03:35,443
the Word of God. I judge all

73
00:03:35,507 --> 00:03:38,283
seasons with the Word of God. Faith for

74
00:03:38,307 --> 00:03:41,123
the believer is the word of God. So

75
00:03:41,227 --> 00:03:44,051
I don't judge every circumstance around me

76
00:03:44,091 --> 00:03:46,659
with my eyes. Neither do I judge it

77
00:03:46,795 --> 00:03:49,579
with any kind of parameter. I judge

78
00:03:49,635 --> 00:03:52,315
the season. I judge the faithfulness of

79
00:03:52,363 --> 00:03:55,191
God with the Word of God. Yes.

80
00:03:56,571 --> 00:03:59,251
We can never grow without the

81
00:03:59,291 --> 00:04:02,111
word of God. Yes, true.

82
00:04:02,651 --> 00:04:05,267
We can never grow without the

83
00:04:05,299 --> 00:04:06,911
Word of God.

84
00:04:07,971 --> 00:04:10,883
Always. The written word is for all seasons. Thank

85
00:04:10,907 --> 00:04:13,827
you. Thank you. Always putting God's word

86
00:04:14,019 --> 00:04:16,691
first because my wisdom is in it. So the

87
00:04:16,731 --> 00:04:19,387
world sees time in years, seasons

88
00:04:19,459 --> 00:04:22,179
and days. Yes. But the believer

89
00:04:22,235 --> 00:04:24,951
must see time in purpose

90
00:04:26,391 --> 00:04:29,191
and in fulfilling God's will for

91
00:04:29,231 --> 00:04:31,407
his life. Thank you for that,

92
00:04:31,479 --> 00:04:34,382
Nancy. The believer, must see

93
00:04:34,518 --> 00:04:37,398
time in purpose and in fulfilling

94
00:04:37,566 --> 00:04:39,982
God's will for his

95
00:04:40,038 --> 00:04:42,674
life. Yes. We have two more minutes.

96
00:04:43,774 --> 00:04:46,474
As many of us that have written something, we want to see it.

97
00:04:47,374 --> 00:04:50,238
Okay. Praise God. Hallelujah. Yes.

98
00:04:50,326 --> 00:04:52,814
My decision should align with the purpose of

99
00:04:52,854 --> 00:04:55,649
God. Not min own, activities,

100
00:04:56,245 --> 00:04:58,205
or my own plans. Amen. Yeah.

101
00:04:58,237 --> 00:05:00,981
So last week, you know, we stoped somewhere and then

102
00:05:01,005 --> 00:05:03,605
we'll continue and we end today,

103
00:05:03,717 --> 00:05:06,053
right? Yeah. So like I always say

104
00:05:06,181 --> 00:05:09,021
that this year, I have been saying that

105
00:05:09,085 --> 00:05:11,549
this year has nothing to offer to

106
00:05:11,589 --> 00:05:14,223
you. You are the one that has something to

107
00:05:14,271 --> 00:05:17,111
sow into it. Did you hear what I

108
00:05:17,135 --> 00:05:20,135
said? A new year has nothing to

109
00:05:20,207 --> 00:05:23,071
offer to you. It is a time given to

110
00:05:23,095 --> 00:05:25,895
you as a gift. So you are the

111
00:05:25,927 --> 00:05:28,607
one that take hold of the gift and then do

112
00:05:28,623 --> 00:05:30,739
what? And then use it.

113
00:05:31,919 --> 00:05:34,831
So there is nothing as it where inside

114
00:05:34,895 --> 00:05:37,663
the year. You are the one

115
00:05:37,791 --> 00:05:40,775
that have to put in something. This evening I was still

116
00:05:40,807 --> 00:05:43,514
meditating, you know, on today, on today's

117
00:05:43,464 --> 00:05:46,464
discussion that we have the teaching that we have. And he said

118
00:05:46,544 --> 00:05:49,384
there is nothing that makes

119
00:05:49,504 --> 00:05:51,124
you responsible.

120
00:05:51,864 --> 00:05:54,672
Right. Much more than understanding

121
00:05:54,728 --> 00:05:57,728
how to maximize your time. The man

122
00:05:57,776 --> 00:06:00,392
that understands time is a

123
00:06:00,488 --> 00:06:03,304
responsible man. How much more? The

124
00:06:03,384 --> 00:06:06,329
believer that understands how to redeem time and

125
00:06:06,322 --> 00:06:08,858
do God's will is a responsible

126
00:06:08,954 --> 00:06:11,830
believer. He's a committed believer.

127
00:06:12,950 --> 00:06:15,886
So responsibility, as it were,

128
00:06:15,998 --> 00:06:18,494
is not in the biological. So we'll be

129
00:06:18,542 --> 00:06:21,470
celebrating more per days the year Jesus, January.

130
00:06:21,550 --> 00:06:24,550
Now we are already celebrating lots of birthday. Birthdays

131
00:06:24,590 --> 00:06:27,518
are coming in, everybody celebrating. You know, you are

132
00:06:27,574 --> 00:06:30,358
21, you are 22, you are 23, you are

133
00:06:30,414 --> 00:06:33,390
25, you are 30, you are 35, you are

134
00:06:33,430 --> 00:06:35,410
38, you are 45,

135
00:06:36,230 --> 00:06:38,982
you can be 45 and still be

136
00:06:39,006 --> 00:06:41,490
irresponsible. And you can be

137
00:06:41,530 --> 00:06:44,528
45 and, still be what? Responsible.

138
00:06:45,428 --> 00:06:47,808
So the definition of responsibility

139
00:06:48,548 --> 00:06:51,460
is that we are able to meet up with

140
00:06:51,484 --> 00:06:54,444
the demand of activities laid

141
00:06:54,476 --> 00:06:57,388
on us. So we are

142
00:06:57,428 --> 00:07:00,356
able to stand, we're able to understand what is

143
00:07:00,412 --> 00:07:03,134
God's will. And, we are able to rise to the

144
00:07:03,214 --> 00:07:06,162
responsibility of working with it. This

145
00:07:06,178 --> 00:07:08,986
is very important. So this year

146
00:07:09,090 --> 00:07:12,069
cannot be a year of chance. This year cannot.

147
00:07:12,313 --> 00:07:14,897
you should never allow this year to just

148
00:07:14,969 --> 00:07:17,945
fly. Don't allow the time

149
00:07:18,073 --> 00:07:20,345
given to us as gifts by God.

150
00:07:20,473 --> 00:07:23,313
2025. To be. Be very

151
00:07:23,417 --> 00:07:26,185
mindful of this year. Be very

152
00:07:26,273 --> 00:07:29,233
mindful of this time. Be very. We understand that

153
00:07:29,257 --> 00:07:32,025
we said time is called chairos. It only

154
00:07:32,073 --> 00:07:33,101
comes once.

155
00:07:35,841 --> 00:07:38,617
It is s. An event that we see not much more

156
00:07:38,649 --> 00:07:41,577
happening. It just comes and then we

157
00:07:41,609 --> 00:07:44,593
cannot see 2025 again at the

158
00:07:44,617 --> 00:07:47,545
end of this year. But what we can

159
00:07:47,593 --> 00:07:50,129
see about your life is that whether you have

160
00:07:50,185 --> 00:07:53,185
grown or you are stagnant or you are. You are.

161
00:07:53,233 --> 00:07:55,657
What was the opposite of lack of

162
00:07:55,689 --> 00:07:58,633
growth? When somebody is not growing, what is the

163
00:07:58,657 --> 00:08:01,563
opportun? Somebody should help me. The

164
00:08:01,587 --> 00:08:04,259
person is stunted'stunted.

165
00:08:04,355 --> 00:08:07,211
Thank you. In fact, Pastor Victor, thank you for that word.

166
00:08:07,331 --> 00:08:09,915
Stunted. Stunted growth is even

167
00:08:10,083 --> 00:08:12,827
when you are stunted. It means you are suffering from a

168
00:08:12,859 --> 00:08:15,755
sickness. In fact, that

169
00:08:15,803 --> 00:08:18,803
brings my mind to go. When.

170
00:08:18,907 --> 00:08:21,803
When. I need to say this now because I'll add it to the teaching, but

171
00:08:21,827 --> 00:08:24,311
let me say it now. When you are sick.

172
00:08:25,251 --> 00:08:28,039
When you are sick, what happens

173
00:08:28,095 --> 00:08:31,079
to you? When you are sick? Somebody should tell me. Symptoms

174
00:08:31,255 --> 00:08:34,055
that tells you that you are experiencing some

175
00:08:34,103 --> 00:08:36,703
illness inside your body. Symptoms. Yes. What? Number

176
00:08:36,727 --> 00:08:39,451
one. When you are sick, what begins to happen to you?

177
00:08:39,871 --> 00:08:42,767
You feel weak. You feel weak. Number

178
00:08:42,799 --> 00:08:45,319
one. Yes. High temperature.

179
00:08:45,375 --> 00:08:48,271
Yes. Fever. You

180
00:08:48,311 --> 00:08:50,171
lose weight. Yes.

181
00:08:51,271 --> 00:08:53,415
Lack of appetite. Who is this?

182
00:08:53,463 --> 00:08:55,959
Mathewile something you. You lack

183
00:08:56,015 --> 00:08:56,971
appartite

184
00:08:58,581 --> 00:09:01,317
weakness. See, please, as you are writing,

185
00:09:01,509 --> 00:09:04,317
watch out. These are some of the symptoms you should look out

186
00:09:04,349 --> 00:09:07,133
for this year. That you will know

187
00:09:07,237 --> 00:09:10,149
that you are sick spiritually. That you are

188
00:09:10,205 --> 00:09:13,117
sick towards your life. The man that

189
00:09:13,149 --> 00:09:15,845
does not redeem time and is not

190
00:09:15,973 --> 00:09:18,773
meeting up with the demand of responsibility as it were

191
00:09:18,837 --> 00:09:21,717
working with God's will and then to his life. It

192
00:09:21,749 --> 00:09:24,503
shows that you are sick when you

193
00:09:24,527 --> 00:09:27,271
don't desire the gathering of believers. Ah. You are

194
00:09:27,311 --> 00:09:29,863
sick when you don't

195
00:09:29,927 --> 00:09:32,611
desire to pray anymore. You are sick

196
00:09:34,031 --> 00:09:36,799
when you. When you lack the appetite of studying

197
00:09:36,855 --> 00:09:39,631
God's word. You are what? You are sick. Some of us,

198
00:09:39,671 --> 00:09:42,479
we started this year. This is Today's day is

199
00:09:42,615 --> 00:09:44,807
15. We started

200
00:09:44,879 --> 00:09:45,727
healthy.

201
00:09:45,879 --> 00:09:48,743
We set out to do lots of things already

202
00:09:48,807 --> 00:09:51,311
now we have started getting sick. Now

203
00:09:52,091 --> 00:09:55,083
when you are weak to pray, you'already

204
00:09:55,147 --> 00:09:57,795
losing weight. Spiritually, you are losing

205
00:09:57,843 --> 00:10:00,627
weight. You can't carry yourself in the place

206
00:10:00,659 --> 00:10:03,267
of prayer. You cannot wake up to to attend

207
00:10:03,299 --> 00:10:06,139
to the activities of studying the Word. We just

208
00:10:06,195 --> 00:10:09,051
started reading the Bible one year. Some people have even

209
00:10:09,091 --> 00:10:11,867
left six days. Can you imagine?

210
00:10:11,979 --> 00:10:14,951
Is that no sickness. You are sick.

211
00:10:15,941 --> 00:10:18,389
High temperature pain

212
00:10:18,565 --> 00:10:20,989
and tiredness. You're already tired

213
00:10:21,125 --> 00:10:24,045
spiritually. So you know, you know we

214
00:10:24,053 --> 00:10:25,601
are setting out this year,

215
00:10:26,781 --> 00:10:29,581
I'm taking out first to launch the year.

216
00:10:29,741 --> 00:10:32,641
I will take 30 days of prayer and fasting.

217
00:10:33,901 --> 00:10:36,751
I, know up till now the year has been launched,

218
00:10:36,871 --> 00:10:39,855
but the person has refused to fast. He has refused

219
00:10:39,903 --> 00:10:42,719
to pray. He has refused to read the word, he

220
00:10:42,735 --> 00:10:45,639
has refused to set out time for meditation. He has

221
00:10:45,695 --> 00:10:48,383
even refused to do anything regarding his own

222
00:10:48,407 --> 00:10:51,159
natural life. It's one of the things

223
00:10:51,255 --> 00:10:54,095
will end up as the distractions. Beware

224
00:10:54,143 --> 00:10:56,687
of this distraction. So one of them is this.

225
00:10:56,799 --> 00:10:58,971
Beware of being sick.

226
00:11:00,191 --> 00:11:03,103
Thickness of the mind sickness

227
00:11:03,207 --> 00:11:05,687
spiritually, that comes to you. You begin to lack the

228
00:11:05,719 --> 00:11:08,647
appetite to do spiritual things. You begin to lack

229
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,255
the appetite to engage in guarding of

230
00:11:11,303 --> 00:11:13,895
believers. He said, I don't like going to church. You are

231
00:11:13,943 --> 00:11:16,863
sick. So we're going to look at

232
00:11:16,887 --> 00:11:19,831
them before, before we end

233
00:11:19,911 --> 00:11:20,891
today's teaching.

234
00:11:23,151 --> 00:11:26,127
So look at all the symptoms that was dropped in the

235
00:11:26,159 --> 00:11:28,811
chat box. Stunted growth.

236
00:11:29,591 --> 00:11:32,375
Stunted growth. So the year

237
00:11:32,423 --> 00:11:35,367
will end and we will be able to check your life.

238
00:11:35,479 --> 00:11:38,407
Whether we can see a profitability or

239
00:11:38,439 --> 00:11:40,623
you, you are spunted or you are

240
00:11:40,687 --> 00:11:41,531
stagnant.

241
00:11:43,451 --> 00:11:46,171
When you're growing, we will know. When you are not growing,

242
00:11:46,251 --> 00:11:49,083
also we will know because there will

243
00:11:49,107 --> 00:11:51,907
be lot of l loopholes

244
00:11:52,019 --> 00:11:54,071
everywhere in your life.

245
00:11:55,971 --> 00:11:58,751
So now let's be efficien. Everybody,

246
00:11:59,291 --> 00:12:00,791
let's go to efficnc.

247
00:12:02,691 --> 00:12:04,191
Let's go to efficnc.

248
00:12:05,851 --> 00:12:08,523
So you see, there is no excuse for. I don't feel like

249
00:12:08,547 --> 00:12:11,099
reading. Wait. Even please help me

250
00:12:11,115 --> 00:12:14,107
o Pastor Victor. Pastor Chidi,

251
00:12:14,219 --> 00:12:16,915
as many of us at least I'm seeing the people that are takinging

252
00:12:16,963 --> 00:12:19,275
their, their Bible reading

253
00:12:19,323 --> 00:12:22,291
daily. Some people

254
00:12:22,371 --> 00:12:25,131
join because they don't want to be looked

255
00:12:25,211 --> 00:12:28,211
after or shouted after. Oh, Pastor

256
00:12:28,251 --> 00:12:31,161
Chidy or Pastor Victor should not disturb them or Mrs.

257
00:12:31,201 --> 00:12:34,194
Titi should not ask. I've, not seen you. What's happening?

258
00:12:34,312 --> 00:12:37,090
They just join. You just join.

259
00:12:37,750 --> 00:12:40,270
And one amazing thing is it'just three

260
00:12:40,310 --> 00:12:41,690
chapters a day,

261
00:12:43,110 --> 00:12:45,170
some four chapters. Can you imagine?

262
00:12:45,910 --> 00:12:48,638
Let me tell you, we're going toa look at it also as part of the

263
00:12:48,654 --> 00:12:51,502
destruction. You are already possessed of the

264
00:12:51,526 --> 00:12:54,006
Holy Ghost. But you can be oppressed by a

265
00:12:54,038 --> 00:12:56,950
demon. A

266
00:12:56,990 --> 00:12:59,890
demon can come to resist you from prayers.

267
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,360
A demon can come to resist you from reading

268
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,296
God's word. A demon can come

269
00:13:07,328 --> 00:13:09,928
to resist you from attending the

270
00:13:09,984 --> 00:13:11,660
gathering of believers.

271
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,656
Once you make up your mind that you will never come

272
00:13:15,688 --> 00:13:18,496
to church is not ordinary. It

273
00:13:18,608 --> 00:13:21,464
against. Is against your makeup as a

274
00:13:21,512 --> 00:13:24,310
believer. once you make up your mind, I see

275
00:13:24,430 --> 00:13:27,390
this year I will not read the Bible. It'against

276
00:13:27,470 --> 00:13:29,878
your makeup. In fact, let me say this

277
00:13:30,054 --> 00:13:32,662
is against the Holy Ghost that is

278
00:13:32,766 --> 00:13:35,742
dwelling in your insight. Once you

279
00:13:35,766 --> 00:13:38,686
say, you know what? I will not pray. Me, I

280
00:13:38,718 --> 00:13:39,890
will not pray.

281
00:13:41,070 --> 00:13:43,982
Already you are subscribing to a

282
00:13:44,046 --> 00:13:45,730
life that is not yours.

283
00:13:48,150 --> 00:13:50,807
And you can't have a fruitful year like that as a

284
00:13:50,847 --> 00:13:53,687
believer. So efficieient. Chapter

285
00:13:53,727 --> 00:13:56,659
5. Now verse 15. He says, See

286
00:13:56,683 --> 00:13:59,491
then that he works cumectly. Not as

287
00:13:59,539 --> 00:14:01,967
fools, but what but as wise.

288
00:14:03,387 --> 00:14:06,291
He say work circumspectly. Pay

289
00:14:06,379 --> 00:14:08,731
attention. Be

290
00:14:08,779 --> 00:14:11,659
mindful, be conscious of how you

291
00:14:11,683 --> 00:14:13,607
liveave your life in 2025.

292
00:14:14,747 --> 00:14:17,719
He said, Redeeming the time because the days, are

293
00:14:17,743 --> 00:14:20,559
evil. Wherefore being not unwise, but

294
00:14:20,663 --> 00:14:23,417
understanding what the will of the Lord is.

295
00:14:24,957 --> 00:14:27,678
18. Now let's stop at 18, everybody. And being not

296
00:14:27,734 --> 00:14:30,710
drunk with wine, wherein is what is

297
00:14:30,750 --> 00:14:33,730
excess. But be filled with what?

298
00:14:34,270 --> 00:14:37,190
With the Spirit. Be

299
00:14:37,230 --> 00:14:39,494
filled with the spirit. So throughout

300
00:14:39,542 --> 00:14:42,342
2025 you can be filled daily with

301
00:14:42,366 --> 00:14:45,046
the Spirit. Throughout January

302
00:14:45,158 --> 00:14:47,486
you can be fils daily with what? With the

303
00:14:47,518 --> 00:14:50,072
spirit. It'very possible for

304
00:14:50,096 --> 00:14:52,544
you. It's a thousand times

305
00:14:52,672 --> 00:14:55,360
possible. It's a reality that can happen

306
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:56,660
throughout this year.

307
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,608
Why? Because you have chosen to walk

308
00:15:00,744 --> 00:15:03,000
tumectly as a wise

309
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,780
man is possible.

310
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:08,940
So I will say this.

311
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,872
Set goals, please. If you're writing right, you say set

312
00:15:13,936 --> 00:15:15,980
goals for 2025,

313
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,840
but set spiritual goals as the

314
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,632
highest. Set

315
00:15:22,696 --> 00:15:25,632
goals. Set goals. Set goals. When I

316
00:15:25,656 --> 00:15:28,472
say don't leave this year to chance, what I mean

317
00:15:28,496 --> 00:15:31,328
is set goals for 2025.

318
00:15:31,464 --> 00:15:34,256
Poss sets spiritual goals as the

319
00:15:34,288 --> 00:15:37,192
highest in all your

320
00:15:37,256 --> 00:15:40,104
setting of goals this year. Please, I

321
00:15:40,152 --> 00:15:43,144
beg you with the mercy of God, set spiritual

322
00:15:43,232 --> 00:15:44,380
goals. First,

323
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,992
let it be the priority of your goals. Let it be

324
00:15:49,016 --> 00:15:51,800
the premium of your goals. Let it be at the top of the

325
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,616
chart of your goals. Set spiritual goals this

326
00:15:54,648 --> 00:15:57,632
year. Set goals that. I'm gonna pray more

327
00:15:57,656 --> 00:16:00,496
than I've ever prayed in my life this year I'm gonna

328
00:16:00,528 --> 00:16:03,336
read the Word more than I've ever read the Word in my

329
00:16:03,368 --> 00:16:06,032
life. This year I'm gonna attend every

330
00:16:06,136 --> 00:16:08,944
meeting. Last year I was. I was running

331
00:16:08,992 --> 00:16:11,432
away from garding of us. This year

332
00:16:11,536 --> 00:16:14,114
I'mnna set goals. That, pertains to

333
00:16:14,154 --> 00:16:16,968
me being part of local meetings

334
00:16:17,096 --> 00:16:19,928
where believers are gathered. I'm gonna attend thell

335
00:16:19,976 --> 00:16:22,896
meetings. I'm goingn part of the midwichk service. I'm going to part of the

336
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,124
Sunday service. Set goals.

337
00:16:27,144 --> 00:16:29,924
This is how you don't live your life to chance.

338
00:16:31,824 --> 00:16:34,792
Come on. You are too. You are too. You are

339
00:16:34,848 --> 00:16:36,564
too old now

340
00:16:37,664 --> 00:16:39,684
just to leift things to chance

341
00:16:40,864 --> 00:16:43,501
it. One day at, a time

342
00:16:45,041 --> 00:16:47,779
with Jesus. He saidir

343
00:16:47,905 --> 00:16:49,611
are not come here suff far

344
00:16:51,831 --> 00:16:54,091
is ah every day with Jesus.

345
00:16:54,591 --> 00:16:56,331
Every blessed day.

346
00:16:58,391 --> 00:17:01,391
If you're saying one day at a time, it means, oh, you can

347
00:17:01,431 --> 00:17:04,211
have other days that you don't want to go with Jesus.

348
00:17:04,551 --> 00:17:06,571
Every day must be with Christ.

349
00:17:07,911 --> 00:17:10,171
What's gonna benna be?

350
00:17:10,671 --> 00:17:13,531
What's the song? What's gonna be gonna be?

351
00:17:14,351 --> 00:17:17,285
What goes up, must come down, What's

352
00:17:17,325 --> 00:17:20,051
gonna be? What's gonna be? There is

353
00:17:20,123 --> 00:17:23,035
nothing you can do about it. There is

354
00:17:23,155 --> 00:17:25,695
something we will do about this year.

355
00:17:27,715 --> 00:17:30,563
There is nothing. What's gonna be gonna be? You

356
00:17:30,579 --> 00:17:33,575
are the one that will make what's gonna be to be

357
00:17:34,115 --> 00:17:36,295
very. You cannot leave

358
00:17:36,915 --> 00:17:39,571
as a believer who is irresponsible.

359
00:17:39,763 --> 00:17:42,563
See, let me tell you, say no to every

360
00:17:42,619 --> 00:17:45,455
form of irres responsibility this year.

361
00:17:46,475 --> 00:17:49,187
Take hold of the time. Take

362
00:17:49,251 --> 00:17:52,155
hold of the time. Take hold of the

363
00:17:52,195 --> 00:17:54,695
time. Take hold of the time.

364
00:17:55,235 --> 00:17:58,187
So in all the goals you are setting this year, which we're going to

365
00:17:58,211 --> 00:18:01,123
talk about, set spiritual goals as a

366
00:18:01,139 --> 00:18:04,003
what? As the highest. Praise God. Let

367
00:18:04,019 --> 00:18:06,787
it be the highest. Let it be the

368
00:18:06,811 --> 00:18:09,779
highest. We'talked about prayers, we'talk regarding of

369
00:18:09,827 --> 00:18:12,723
believers. But all of our studying of the words, set those

370
00:18:12,779 --> 00:18:15,539
goals as the wor. As the highest. Let me say this.

371
00:18:15,627 --> 00:18:18,281
Please challenge yourself this year

372
00:18:18,393 --> 00:18:21,305
that I'm gonna do what I've never done regarding my

373
00:18:21,345 --> 00:18:24,305
spiritual life, say throughout my life.

374
00:18:24,345 --> 00:18:27,041
O I have never read the Bible back to back.

375
00:18:27,193 --> 00:18:29,805
You know what? This year I will do it.

376
00:18:30,370 --> 00:18:33,035
set goals. Read spiritual books.

377
00:18:33,775 --> 00:18:36,687
Set goals aside the book that we are

378
00:18:36,711 --> 00:18:39,519
reading in church. Set goals to read other

379
00:18:39,567 --> 00:18:42,055
books, spiritual books that are gona

380
00:18:42,095 --> 00:18:44,989
add value your growth as a

381
00:18:45,037 --> 00:18:47,533
believer. One of the points I was given

382
00:18:47,589 --> 00:18:50,110
there is that, strengthen all the

383
00:18:50,126 --> 00:18:52,478
wor. All the spiritual or

384
00:18:52,550 --> 00:18:55,494
supernatural relationship that God has.

385
00:18:55,518 --> 00:18:57,562
What that God has given you.

386
00:18:59,022 --> 00:19:01,722
Strengthen all the supernatural relationships.

387
00:19:03,662 --> 00:19:05,958
Let's go to Ecclesia. Ecclesiastes, chapter four.

388
00:19:05,990 --> 00:19:08,454
Everybody. Oh, be a

389
00:19:08,518 --> 00:19:11,422
Responsible believer this year. Be a conscious

390
00:19:11,502 --> 00:19:14,478
believer this year. Be a responsible believer this

391
00:19:14,510 --> 00:19:17,318
year. You are out there. You're hearing me. Be a

392
00:19:17,390 --> 00:19:19,562
responsible believer this year.

393
00:19:20,302 --> 00:19:23,190
Set goals for your prayer life. Set goals for

394
00:19:23,206 --> 00:19:26,142
the reasoning of God's words. Set goals to attend goding of

395
00:19:26,182 --> 00:19:29,182
believers. Be a responsible believers. When you

396
00:19:29,222 --> 00:19:32,214
hear that we have prayer cres and his nine hour

397
00:19:32,318 --> 00:19:35,282
stretch of prayers. Oh, let it excite you.

398
00:19:35,662 --> 00:19:38,646
Let spiritual things excite you more

399
00:19:38,694 --> 00:19:41,450
this year. That is where favvency

400
00:19:41,506 --> 00:19:44,050
comes from. When

401
00:19:44,106 --> 00:19:47,074
spiritual things don't excite you. There will not

402
00:19:47,098 --> 00:19:49,954
be favathvency. There will not be

403
00:19:49,978 --> 00:19:50,822
favvency.

404
00:19:53,002 --> 00:19:54,862
Ecclesiastes chapter 4.

405
00:19:55,842 --> 00:19:58,658
Strengthen your what? Strengthen the

406
00:19:58,730 --> 00:20:01,362
supernatural relationships God is giving

407
00:20:01,402 --> 00:20:03,822
you. Strengthen them.

408
00:20:04,682 --> 00:20:07,542
Ecclesia chapter 4, verse 9 to 10. I read

409
00:20:09,712 --> 00:20:12,552
two are better than one because they have a good

410
00:20:12,592 --> 00:20:14,972
reward for their what for their label.

411
00:20:15,872 --> 00:20:18,760
For if they fall, the one

412
00:20:18,816 --> 00:20:21,720
will do what will lift his what

413
00:20:21,856 --> 00:20:24,592
will lift up his fellow.

414
00:20:24,752 --> 00:20:27,512
But waroe to him, that is what that is

415
00:20:27,552 --> 00:20:30,352
alone. For

416
00:20:30,392 --> 00:20:32,984
when he followed for he had

417
00:20:33,048 --> 00:20:35,930
not another to do what to help him up.

418
00:20:36,066 --> 00:20:37,102
Hallelujah.

419
00:20:39,402 --> 00:20:42,354
Don't walk alone this year. Don't

420
00:20:42,418 --> 00:20:45,082
work alone this year. God has led

421
00:20:45,122 --> 00:20:47,962
you to valuable people. God has

422
00:20:48,002 --> 00:20:50,450
led people into your life. So

423
00:20:50,546 --> 00:20:52,762
strengthen those supernatural

424
00:20:52,842 --> 00:20:55,458
relationships is

425
00:20:55,530 --> 00:20:57,538
selfishness. Sheer

426
00:20:57,650 --> 00:20:58,862
selfishness.

427
00:21:00,502 --> 00:21:02,886
We often say there is no self

428
00:21:02,974 --> 00:21:05,902
made believer. There is no self

429
00:21:05,982 --> 00:21:08,838
made billionaire. There's

430
00:21:08,870 --> 00:21:11,734
no self made milaire. There is no

431
00:21:11,798 --> 00:21:14,798
self made. No no no. In this kingdom we don't have

432
00:21:14,870 --> 00:21:17,542
self made people. Self

433
00:21:17,622 --> 00:21:20,282
made believers. We don't have self made believers.

434
00:21:22,622 --> 00:21:25,358
In fact we don't have self made medical doctor.

435
00:21:25,510 --> 00:21:28,366
We don't have. In fact let me even take it extreme. We

436
00:21:28,374 --> 00:21:31,348
don't have self made native doctor. So

437
00:21:31,380 --> 00:21:34,332
how will you just arrive? You think you can just arrive in the

438
00:21:34,372 --> 00:21:36,752
scene just like that? No. Now

439
00:21:38,252 --> 00:21:40,796
God has. God consistently has

440
00:21:40,844 --> 00:21:43,468
surrounded you with a system. One of the

441
00:21:43,540 --> 00:21:46,484
system is a local church. Say sir, I am not

442
00:21:46,508 --> 00:21:49,076
a people's person. That is not the spirit of God.

443
00:21:49,244 --> 00:21:51,916
We bind that spirit. We bind

444
00:21:51,964 --> 00:21:54,532
it. I am not a people's

445
00:21:54,572 --> 00:21:57,552
person. When you are in the hospital, you know that you

446
00:21:57,552 --> 00:21:58,652
are a people's person.

447
00:22:00,392 --> 00:22:03,248
When you lack food to eat close to where you will know

448
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:04,892
that you are a people's person.

449
00:22:06,112 --> 00:22:08,328
He saysir, you know, I find it

450
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,424
difficult to talk and relate with

451
00:22:11,488 --> 00:22:14,346
people. Ah See this is not the spirit of God

452
00:22:14,394 --> 00:22:17,330
speaking through you. You see this here? If

453
00:22:17,346 --> 00:22:20,186
you're on this platform, we are about 69 71. Now

454
00:22:20,314 --> 00:22:23,180
if you If you're on this platform and You. You. You

455
00:22:23,220 --> 00:22:25,770
have this mindset that you are not a people's

456
00:22:25,810 --> 00:22:28,310
person. You are not a.

457
00:22:28,930 --> 00:22:30,790
You don't associate with people.

458
00:22:32,170 --> 00:22:34,842
This year, we lose that

459
00:22:34,906 --> 00:22:37,426
chain. We lose that mindset. We

460
00:22:37,498 --> 00:22:40,474
lose every stronghold, ideology

461
00:22:40,642 --> 00:22:43,466
from everywhere that is at work in

462
00:22:43,498 --> 00:22:44,670
you, we lose it

463
00:22:46,970 --> 00:22:47,990
this year.

464
00:22:48,490 --> 00:22:50,994
One of the things that will be

465
00:22:51,082 --> 00:22:53,802
responsible for your growth is

466
00:22:53,906 --> 00:22:56,730
supernatural relationships. One of the

467
00:22:56,770 --> 00:22:59,402
things that will be responsible for your

468
00:22:59,506 --> 00:23:02,402
increase is supernatural relationships. One

469
00:23:02,426 --> 00:23:05,098
of the things that will be responsible for your

470
00:23:05,154 --> 00:23:07,866
stability, how far you go is

471
00:23:07,938 --> 00:23:10,818
supernatural relationships. One of the things that

472
00:23:10,834 --> 00:23:13,714
will be responsible for how your life

473
00:23:13,842 --> 00:23:16,298
ends at the end of this year is

474
00:23:16,394 --> 00:23:18,666
supernatural relationships. Brothers and

475
00:23:18,698 --> 00:23:19,430
sisters.

476
00:23:21,330 --> 00:23:24,330
Strengthen them. You see, I'm using the word strengthen

477
00:23:24,370 --> 00:23:27,282
them because you have to consciously do something about

478
00:23:27,306 --> 00:23:29,688
them. There is a

479
00:23:29,784 --> 00:23:32,752
supernatural relationship between your pastors

480
00:23:32,816 --> 00:23:35,700
and you. Strengthen those relationships.

481
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,400
There's a supernatural relationship between the pastors

482
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,728
and the members of the church. Strengthen those

483
00:23:41,784 --> 00:23:44,576
relationships. In

484
00:23:44,608 --> 00:23:47,470
fact, let me tell you, husband and wife.

485
00:23:48,330 --> 00:23:50,826
God has brought you together. Is a supernatural

486
00:23:50,898 --> 00:23:51,790
relationships.

487
00:23:53,950 --> 00:23:56,822
Strengthen them. Let me say this as

488
00:23:56,846 --> 00:23:59,686
a caution. Find whatever will cause

489
00:23:59,718 --> 00:24:02,694
you to lose the supernatural relationship that

490
00:24:02,742 --> 00:24:05,690
God has brought into your life. Fight it.

491
00:24:06,070 --> 00:24:08,966
Don't. Don't tolerate whatever will

492
00:24:09,038 --> 00:24:11,758
destroy the supernatural. The gift

493
00:24:11,814 --> 00:24:14,270
of men that, ah, God has brought in your

494
00:24:14,310 --> 00:24:17,086
life is the. When. When

495
00:24:17,118 --> 00:24:20,094
you fall. When you fall. You see, the

496
00:24:20,102 --> 00:24:22,790
scripture didn't tell us when you're gonna fall. But he said when

497
00:24:22,830 --> 00:24:25,668
you fall for there will not be an order to help

498
00:24:25,724 --> 00:24:28,516
you. No, no, no, no, no. But when you fall,

499
00:24:28,628 --> 00:24:31,160
there will be so many people to hold you.

500
00:24:32,060 --> 00:24:34,582
So practically, after service, don't just

501
00:24:34,646 --> 00:24:37,614
run. Get to two, three people

502
00:24:37,662 --> 00:24:40,286
and work. Know their names, interact with

503
00:24:40,318 --> 00:24:43,206
them, reach out to

504
00:24:43,238 --> 00:24:46,118
people. Few days, I

505
00:24:46,134 --> 00:24:48,734
was just. I was just meditating about people that always

506
00:24:48,782 --> 00:24:51,736
complain. Oh, but Pastor Chi, you did not call me Pastor

507
00:24:51,768 --> 00:24:54,696
Chi. You did not send me message. He did not send me

508
00:24:54,728 --> 00:24:57,582
message. Did you send Pastori message? Did you message

509
00:24:57,606 --> 00:25:00,542
him? Can't you see that his lack of growth that is

510
00:25:00,566 --> 00:25:02,370
disturing you? You are sick.

511
00:25:03,750 --> 00:25:06,214
Mature people, responsible

512
00:25:06,302 --> 00:25:08,737
people. When messages are, not sent to them, they

513
00:25:08,777 --> 00:25:11,289
sen. So send the

514
00:25:11,313 --> 00:25:14,137
message. If you realize Pastor Victor has not messaged

515
00:25:14,177 --> 00:25:17,089
you. Messaging. That's

516
00:25:17,113 --> 00:25:20,089
what responsible people will do. That's what matureur. That's

517
00:25:20,113 --> 00:25:21,837
what growth brings to your life.

518
00:25:22,897 --> 00:25:25,689
Let me say this, please. This year,

519
00:25:25,833 --> 00:25:28,641
reduce your excuses and amplify

520
00:25:28,689 --> 00:25:29,877
your responsibility.

521
00:25:32,137 --> 00:25:34,833
You all. I said reduce your excuses for

522
00:25:34,865 --> 00:25:37,482
irresponsibility and, amplify your

523
00:25:37,570 --> 00:25:40,274
responsibility. Reduce your excuses for

524
00:25:40,306 --> 00:25:42,803
irresponsibility and, amplify your

525
00:25:42,891 --> 00:25:45,515
responsibility. Reduce your Excuses for

526
00:25:45,547 --> 00:25:48,382
irresponsibility and, amplify your

527
00:25:48,486 --> 00:25:51,322
responsibility. Rise to

528
00:25:51,346 --> 00:25:53,190
the demand of responsibilities.

529
00:25:54,330 --> 00:25:56,954
So one of them is what threaten all the

530
00:25:57,002 --> 00:25:59,978
supernatural relationship. Ephesians,

531
00:26:00,034 --> 00:26:02,842
chapter four. See? Ephesians, chapter four, verse

532
00:26:02,866 --> 00:26:05,754
two. Everybody. Epesians, chapter

533
00:26:05,842 --> 00:26:07,310
chap. Chapter four.

534
00:26:08,410 --> 00:26:10,070
Epesians, chapter four.

535
00:26:11,530 --> 00:26:14,390
Epesians, chapter 4, verse 2.

536
00:26:17,190 --> 00:26:19,590
I, therefore. Let's start reading from verse one. I,

537

In love and devour.

547

Spirit in the bond of

549
00:26:54,196 --> 00:26:56,460

553
00:27:05,172 --> 00:27:07,932
connected you with. Do all you can to keep the

554
00:27:07,956 --> 00:27:10,676

Do all you can. He said, with all loneliness,

557
00:27:16,636 --> 00:27:18,972
not pride. With all long

558
00:27:19,036 --> 00:27:21,940
suffering. For bearing one

00:27:22,020 --> 00:27:23,840

10, verse 24. You see all the places that we were reading.

577
00:28:16,630 --> 00:28:19,278
You can see a responsibility laid on you as a

578
00:28:19,334 --> 00:28:21,050
believer on what to do.

579
00:28:21,870 --> 00:28:24,646
Hebrews chapter 10. I will say this again because I'm

580
00:28:24,678 --> 00:28:27,390
hearing it sounding in my spirit. If you're on this

581
00:28:27,430 --> 00:28:30,398
platform, fightide whatever

582
00:28:30,454 --> 00:28:33,238
is God is fighting you from attending

583
00:28:33,294 --> 00:28:34,610
the local church,

584
00:28:36,610 --> 00:28:39,322
you're on this platform. Whatever

585
00:28:39,426 --> 00:28:42,250
is stopping you from attending the garden of believers

586
00:28:42,290 --> 00:28:43,990
this year? Fight it.

587
00:28:44,850 --> 00:28:47,546
Hebrews chapter 10, verse 24. And let us

588
00:28:47,618 --> 00:28:50,522
consider one another. Can you see? That we

589
00:28:50,546 --> 00:28:53,546
should do what? Help

590
00:28:53,578 --> 00:28:55,858
me. That we should do what? Provoke

00:28:55,994 --> 00:28:58,348
unto love and what, And

592
00:28:58,404 --> 00:29:01,080
good words. Hallelujah.

593
00:29:01,630 --> 00:29:04,462
Not fors the assembly of ourselves together as a manner of

594
00:29:04,486 --> 00:29:07,302
someies, but exhorting what one another,

595
00:29:07,406 --> 00:29:10,199
Encouraging one another. so much more as

596
00:29:10,247 --> 00:29:12,995
yes, see the day what approaching.

597
00:29:14,655 --> 00:29:17,010
Philippians chapter two, verse three to four.

598
00:29:18,270 --> 00:29:20,700
Philippians Chapter two, verse three to four.

599
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,236
He said, let nothing be

600
00:29:26,268 --> 00:29:28,876
done through strife, O vain

601
00:29:28,988 --> 00:29:31,788
glory. But in lowneliness of

602
00:29:31,844 --> 00:29:34,324
mind. Let's do what? Let each

603
00:29:34,412 --> 00:29:37,301
esteem What? Esteem the order. better

604
00:29:37,357 --> 00:29:40,245
than what? Than themselves.

605
00:29:40,309 --> 00:29:43,277
Now, everybody. Nowiverse 4, look.

606
00:29:43,325 --> 00:29:46,101
Not every man on his own things,

607
00:29:46,277 --> 00:29:49,245
but every man also on the things of what?

608
00:29:49,389 --> 00:29:50,233
Of the.

609
00:29:52,033 --> 00:29:54,985
So practically now, how will I strengthen

610
00:29:55,049 --> 00:29:57,913
all the supernatural relationships knowing

611
00:29:57,953 --> 00:30:00,729
that I can't fulfill God's will alone? Knowing

612
00:30:00,761 --> 00:30:03,361
that God has put a system of men

613
00:30:03,497 --> 00:30:06,337
in my life for my growth, for my stability,

614
00:30:06,505 --> 00:30:09,369
for my increase. How can I

615
00:30:09,401 --> 00:30:12,401
be able to do that? Number one, I have to

616
00:30:12,457 --> 00:30:14,293
not show that relationship.

617
00:30:15,153 --> 00:30:17,933
Noture the relationship, nurture

618
00:30:17,973 --> 00:30:20,661
the relationship. Don't be careless

619
00:30:20,757 --> 00:30:23,005
about the people God has put in your life.

620
00:30:23,149 --> 00:30:25,861
Please, I beg you, don't be. What?

621
00:30:25,957 --> 00:30:28,113
Don't be careealless about them.

622
00:30:29,533 --> 00:30:32,269
Don't be careealless. Don't be

623
00:30:32,301 --> 00:30:35,109
careless with them. Honor them.

624
00:30:35,181 --> 00:30:37,821
Oh, my good God, Honor them. Be

625
00:30:37,877 --> 00:30:40,725
loyal to them. When we say loyalty,

626
00:30:40,749 --> 00:30:43,287
we mean be devoted without

627
00:30:43,335 --> 00:30:46,183
reservation when it

628
00:30:46,223 --> 00:30:49,143
comes to your supernatural relationship. Heal

629
00:30:49,303 --> 00:30:51,603
every spirit of selfishness.

630
00:30:54,103 --> 00:30:56,854
You see, scriptural, to put yourself

631
00:30:56,966 --> 00:30:58,138
ahead of people

632
00:31:00,158 --> 00:31:03,014
is scriptural. Puts

633
00:31:03,086 --> 00:31:04,578
people ahead of you.

634
00:31:05,958 --> 00:31:08,838
Mark, chapter nine, verse 35, chapter 10,

635
00:31:08,878 --> 00:31:11,865
verse 40 fiver. verse 44. He said, if anyone

636
00:31:11,945 --> 00:31:14,655
desires to be the greatest in this kingdom,

637
00:31:14,775 --> 00:31:17,595
he must be the servant of them all.

638
00:31:18,215 --> 00:31:20,255
Mark 9:35. Mark

639
00:31:20,295 --> 00:31:21,555
10:44.

640
00:31:23,095 --> 00:31:26,015
You want to be known. You want to be felt.

641
00:31:26,095 --> 00:31:28,983
Your impact, your effect in a system,

642
00:31:29,079 --> 00:31:32,079
in the life of people. God has put in your life. Serve

643
00:31:32,127 --> 00:31:35,087
people. Let me say this. Serve the relationships God

644
00:31:35,111 --> 00:31:37,315
has put in your life. Serve them.

645
00:31:38,735 --> 00:31:41,515
Let me take it a little bit far. If you

646
00:31:41,555 --> 00:31:44,451
don't feel used in the local church, you

647
00:31:44,483 --> 00:31:45,655
have been useless.

648
00:31:47,395 --> 00:31:50,395
You. You what? I said, if you don't feel used

649
00:31:50,475 --> 00:31:53,283
in the local church, you have been what you have been

650
00:31:53,339 --> 00:31:56,243
useless. I will repeat it the

651
00:31:56,259 --> 00:31:59,255
third time again. If you don't feel used,

652
00:32:00,515 --> 00:32:02,803
you have been what you have been.

653
00:32:02,859 --> 00:32:05,787
Useless. He said, for

654
00:32:05,811 --> 00:32:08,529
the Son of man came to

655
00:32:08,617 --> 00:32:11,513
serve. Let. Let's read this. Let's

656
00:32:11,529 --> 00:32:13,885
read Mark 10 so that you will see how. Jesus.

657
00:32:14,585 --> 00:32:17,445
Jesus. Jesus. Everybody

658
00:32:18,145 --> 00:32:18,885
me

659
00:32:21,025 --> 00:32:23,969
in this end here. Am I the only one? Am I the

660
00:32:24,017 --> 00:32:26,961
only one? Pastor friend will just be calling my line. He will be calling

661
00:32:26,993 --> 00:32:29,449
my life. Yes, we'll call your line. You must feel

662
00:32:29,497 --> 00:32:30,085
use.

663
00:32:32,505 --> 00:32:35,417
When it comes to. I'm getting more now. More things are

664
00:32:35,441 --> 00:32:38,321
coming into my heart. When it comes to the supernatural relationships

665
00:32:38,353 --> 00:32:40,943
God has sp. In your life. Don't play safe.

666
00:32:41,119 --> 00:32:43,875
Don't play safe. Safve game, save game.

667
00:32:45,775 --> 00:32:48,657
Practical. you go to eat with your friends. You go to

668
00:32:48,681 --> 00:32:50,925
eat after you have eaten

669
00:32:52,505 --> 00:32:55,265
that days. Somehow, somehow you know that your friends don't have

670
00:32:55,305 --> 00:32:57,937
money. And then in your heart you have this

671
00:32:58,041 --> 00:33:00,913
nudg. And then the ndging say, pay for everybody. You

672
00:33:00,929 --> 00:33:03,715
say, ah, ah. No, don't be me, ma. I'm not a mom.

673
00:33:05,295 --> 00:33:07,835
No, no, no, no, no.

674
00:33:08,295 --> 00:33:11,183
They say, oh, your friend is in the hospital who will go

675
00:33:11,199 --> 00:33:14,103
and stay with him. M in the hospital. He say, o no about me.

676
00:33:14,199 --> 00:33:17,080
No. I have so many things going on in my life. Ah,

677
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:20,059
You have so many things going on in your life, and you can't be dear

678
00:33:20,107 --> 00:33:22,555
for people. See what March of the 10

679
00:33:22,595 --> 00:33:25,467
says, verse 44. He said,

680
00:33:25,531 --> 00:33:28,451
Whosoever of you will be the chief.

681
00:33:28,643 --> 00:33:30,855
Please learn life from the scriptures.

682
00:33:31,265 --> 00:33:34,065
Don't learn life from that. From social media,

683
00:33:34,145 --> 00:33:36,409
from Instagram, from all those TikTok,

684
00:33:36,497 --> 00:33:39,417
Snapchat. Learn the

685
00:33:39,481 --> 00:33:42,321
Christian conduct from the scriptures. This

686
00:33:42,353 --> 00:33:45,240
year. Nobody ever,

687
00:33:45,465 --> 00:33:46,965
loses by giving.

688
00:33:48,505 --> 00:33:51,353
Did you hear what I said? Nobody ever

689
00:33:51,409 --> 00:33:53,805
loses by what? By giving.

690
00:33:55,905 --> 00:33:57,525
And see, the scripture said

691
00:33:59,115 --> 00:34:01,899
shall be the servmant of go 45. For

692
00:34:01,947 --> 00:34:04,611
even the son of man came not to be

693
00:34:04,643 --> 00:34:07,371
served or minister, to

694
00:34:07,443 --> 00:34:10,299
minister, to stop and to give his

695
00:34:10,387 --> 00:34:12,815
life a ransom. For how many?

696
00:34:13,235 --> 00:34:14,255
For many.

697
00:34:16,475 --> 00:34:19,091
For many. Can you see?

698
00:34:19,283 --> 00:34:22,211
For many. We can see. We can

699
00:34:22,243 --> 00:34:25,015
see that same statement that Jesus

700
00:34:25,525 --> 00:34:27,345
will give, right?

701
00:34:29,045 --> 00:34:32,045
He said that also in John, chapter

702
00:34:32,085 --> 00:34:35,077
15, verse 13. Fifteen, verse

703
00:34:35,101 --> 00:34:37,025
13. See Jesus'words

704
00:34:38,245 --> 00:34:41,245
John, chapter 15, verse thirteen. Greater love

705
00:34:41,285 --> 00:34:44,261
had no man than this. Than a man

706
00:34:44,453 --> 00:34:46,949
laid down his life for his

707
00:34:46,997 --> 00:34:49,989
enemies. Everybody now

708
00:34:50,077 --> 00:34:52,785
what? What? A man laid down his life for what?

709
00:34:54,945 --> 00:34:56,285
For his friends.

710
00:34:58,705 --> 00:35:01,521
So sacrifice for the supernatural

711
00:35:01,593 --> 00:35:04,377
relationships God has put in your life. That is what I'm

712
00:35:04,401 --> 00:35:07,365
saying. Sacrifice.

713
00:35:08,425 --> 00:35:09,525
Sacrifice

714
00:35:11,905 --> 00:35:13,925
for bear with one another.

715
00:35:14,585 --> 00:35:17,353
Your friend offend you. For surely offenseences

716
00:35:17,409 --> 00:35:19,976
will come from your friends. Offenses, will

717
00:35:20,016 --> 00:35:20,596
come.

718
00:35:23,416 --> 00:35:26,344
Pastor Chidi is on this platform. Pastor Victor is

719
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:29,288
on this platform. Pastor Emmanuel is on this platform. I think I've

720
00:35:29,312 --> 00:35:32,120
seen Mrs. M. Titi. Pastor Chidi,

721
00:35:32,248 --> 00:35:35,232
let's assume one of these days Mrs.

722
00:35:35,264 --> 00:35:38,112
If informa now you know there was this misunderstanding

723
00:35:38,224 --> 00:35:41,112
and then you just woke up and say, me, I'm not doing

724
00:35:41,144 --> 00:35:42,396
this marriage again.

725
00:35:44,176 --> 00:35:46,486
No, now it cannot happen.

726
00:35:47,746 --> 00:35:50,642
Not even because, oh, I've said an O. For better, for

727
00:35:50,674 --> 00:35:53,631
worse. Just understanding that, God

728
00:35:53,679 --> 00:35:56,307
has brought this woman in my life

729
00:35:56,927 --> 00:35:59,719
as a blessing I must keep. I

730
00:35:59,743 --> 00:36:02,311
will not allow. We don't

731
00:36:02,399 --> 00:36:04,307
quit. Thank you, Takunda.

732
00:36:05,967 --> 00:36:08,775
Don't allow misunderstanding. Destroy

733
00:36:08,831 --> 00:36:11,699
the supernatural relationship God, has put

734
00:36:11,723 --> 00:36:14,723
in your life. Pastors will correct you. And the

735
00:36:14,755 --> 00:36:17,515
next option the demon will put in your mind is leave the

736
00:36:17,531 --> 00:36:20,459
church. Leave the

737
00:36:20,483 --> 00:36:23,059
church. Pastor Fred hates you. Leave the

738
00:36:23,083 --> 00:36:25,819
Church. Leave the church. You keep hearing. Leave the

739
00:36:25,843 --> 00:36:28,379
church. Leave the church. They want to kill you

740
00:36:28,403 --> 00:36:31,267
here. Leave the church. Leave the church. That

741
00:36:31,307 --> 00:36:34,051
is not the Holy Ghost. We are not

742
00:36:34,099 --> 00:36:36,527
going anywhere, Christopher. Thank you.

743
00:36:39,277 --> 00:36:42,173
We live here. We grow here. One of the words

744
00:36:42,205 --> 00:36:45,077
I received within the week when I was meditating on this, on this,

745
00:36:45,117 --> 00:36:48,077
on this part of the sermon, he said, stay where

746
00:36:48,117 --> 00:36:49,977
you are planted and grow.

747
00:36:52,237 --> 00:36:55,205
Have you ever seen seasons change

748
00:36:55,341 --> 00:36:57,613
upon a tree and the tree uproot

749
00:36:57,645 --> 00:36:58,377
itself

750
00:37:00,397 --> 00:37:03,201
because there is winter. The tree does not like

751
00:37:03,249 --> 00:37:06,153
cold. It now uproots itself and enter into the

752
00:37:06,185 --> 00:37:08,993
room of the person that planted it. Have you ever seen

753
00:37:09,025 --> 00:37:09,997
anything like that?

754
00:37:12,657 --> 00:37:15,273
Rainy season, sunny season.

755
00:37:15,465 --> 00:37:18,073
With fertilizer. With no fertilizer.

756
00:37:18,185 --> 00:37:20,809
Harsh condition. No condition, good

757
00:37:20,873 --> 00:37:23,089
condition. We are there

758
00:37:23,273 --> 00:37:26,097
planted. So stay in the local church

759
00:37:26,137 --> 00:37:28,557
where God has plant you and grow there.

760
00:37:30,077 --> 00:37:32,777
We have a generation that don't like correction.

761
00:37:33,397 --> 00:37:35,949
When you are corrected, you raise your nose in the

762
00:37:35,973 --> 00:37:38,469
air. Your head now fills the

763
00:37:38,493 --> 00:37:41,137
room. Your chest, your chest.

764
00:37:42,277 --> 00:37:43,177
Why are you

765
00:37:45,437 --> 00:37:46,177
even

766
00:37:48,077 --> 00:37:51,013
Scripture is scriptural that the child whom

767
00:37:51,045 --> 00:37:53,813
the father lost is the one that is

768
00:37:53,845 --> 00:37:56,403
justastised. A generation that does not like

769
00:37:56,435 --> 00:37:59,267
chastisement. That is

770
00:37:59,307 --> 00:38:00,407
why all your

771
00:38:02,107 --> 00:38:04,643
Go go po go po go

772
00:38:04,675 --> 00:38:07,427
po go po p. Go po go

773
00:38:07,467 --> 00:38:10,451
p Go. There is nobody like saying pro. You

774
00:38:10,459 --> 00:38:13,339
are messing up. In fact, let me say this as

775
00:38:13,363 --> 00:38:15,459
a caution. I both as a caution and an

776
00:38:15,483 --> 00:38:18,371
instruction. If you are in a relationship with

777
00:38:18,419 --> 00:38:21,293
anybody now, you're on this platform and nobody

778
00:38:21,341 --> 00:38:23,569
is correcting you because of. Bad,

779
00:38:24,149 --> 00:38:26,997
because of your stubborn head, because of your

780
00:38:27,053 --> 00:38:29,769
whatever. Leave the relationship.

781
00:38:32,189 --> 00:38:34,989
The people that love you the most are the ones

782
00:38:35,029 --> 00:38:37,725
that will sharpen you. Sharpening

783
00:38:37,797 --> 00:38:40,085
is not suitable. But

784
00:38:40,117 --> 00:38:42,301
it'beautiful at the end of the day,

785
00:38:42,445 --> 00:38:45,276
she'telling is not sweet. But at the end of the

786
00:38:45,300 --> 00:38:46,704
day you take shape.

787
00:38:47,774 --> 00:38:50,566
So get growing, get bigger.

788
00:38:50,670 --> 00:38:53,486
Get busy investing in the supernatural

789
00:38:53,550 --> 00:38:54,594
relationships.

790
00:38:56,854 --> 00:38:59,474
Let me say this now. What I mean is this.

791
00:39:02,654 --> 00:39:03,874
Let me say this.

792
00:39:06,494 --> 00:39:09,438
Be truthful to each other. Do

793
00:39:09,446 --> 00:39:12,150
you? What? I said, be what? Be truthful.

794
00:39:12,222 --> 00:39:12,834
What

795
00:39:15,034 --> 00:39:16,254
to each mother.

796
00:39:18,154 --> 00:39:19,774
Pray for the life.

797
00:39:20,914 --> 00:39:22,506
Do you What? I said do what?

798
00:39:22,690 --> 00:39:25,626
If I ask randomly. Now let me say

799
00:39:25,650 --> 00:39:28,138
this. When you see yourself having more

800
00:39:28,186 --> 00:39:30,954
misunderstanding with the people God has put in your

801
00:39:30,994 --> 00:39:33,854
life is because you're not praying for them.

802
00:39:36,034 --> 00:39:38,906
Husbands and wives know this. The more

803
00:39:38,930 --> 00:39:41,826
you pray with your wives, the

804
00:39:41,850 --> 00:39:44,254
more you see less on the misunderstanding.

805
00:39:46,754 --> 00:39:49,402
The more you see there is something that

806
00:39:49,458 --> 00:39:51,694
happens when you pray for people.

807
00:39:52,314 --> 00:39:55,239
You cannot use the same mouth and, pray for them and use the

808
00:39:55,263 --> 00:39:58,255
same mouth to criticize them or to tear them down.

809
00:39:58,351 --> 00:39:59,747
It does not work.

810
00:40:01,287 --> 00:40:03,587
So strengthen the relationship.

811
00:40:04,247 --> 00:40:07,170
Feed it. pray for them. Pray for

812
00:40:07,186 --> 00:40:10,130
your pastors. Pray for your friends. Pray, pray.

813
00:40:10,186 --> 00:40:13,130
Pray for your wife. Pray for your husband. Pray for

814
00:40:13,146 --> 00:40:15,874
your children. Pray and pray and pray.

815
00:40:15,978 --> 00:40:18,722
Don't get weary. Let me end on this

816
00:40:18,762 --> 00:40:21,146
point. Don't get weary in

817
00:40:21,274 --> 00:40:23,834
investing in the relationship God has

818
00:40:23,898 --> 00:40:25,702
put in your life.

819
00:40:27,122 --> 00:40:28,422
Don't get weary.

820
00:40:29,402 --> 00:40:32,302
Invest, invest, invest.

821
00:40:33,762 --> 00:40:35,702
Protect the relationship,

822
00:40:36,162 --> 00:40:38,850
believers. Protect the words

823
00:40:39,026 --> 00:40:42,010
relationship. Protect people. Protect

824
00:40:42,066 --> 00:40:43,782
them. Halleluah.

825
00:40:44,642 --> 00:40:45,502
Amen.

826
00:40:46,522 --> 00:40:48,954
So, set goals for the

827
00:40:48,978 --> 00:40:51,582
year. Set goals for the year.

828
00:40:52,402 --> 00:40:55,298
But above all, set what? Set spiritual

829
00:40:55,370 --> 00:40:58,302
goals. Spiritual goals should be the highest.

830
00:41:01,072 --> 00:41:03,848
Spiritual goal should be the highest. At the end of

831
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,632
2025, we want to see that you have grown

832
00:41:06,752 --> 00:41:07,612
spiritually.

833
00:41:09,272 --> 00:41:12,132
Revelational knowledge. Desire it more.

834
00:41:14,712 --> 00:41:17,587
Don't wait for anybody. Desire

835
00:41:17,587 --> 00:41:20,292
m it more to grow spiritually.

836
00:41:21,712 --> 00:41:24,692
That mental goals for this year.

837
00:41:25,632 --> 00:41:28,224
Do you know what I said? Set mental

838
00:41:28,328 --> 00:41:31,320
development goals. Don't

839
00:41:31,376 --> 00:41:32,852
read only the Bible.

840
00:41:35,992 --> 00:41:38,847
Read, read. Mind provoking books. Abus,

841
00:41:39,286 --> 00:41:42,134
your mind more. When we

842
00:41:42,158 --> 00:41:44,882
talk about entrepreneurship, now you don't know anything.

843
00:41:45,622 --> 00:41:48,402
We talk about investment, now you don't know anything

844
00:41:51,202 --> 00:41:54,202
we talk about. In fact, as I don't have a

845
00:41:54,282 --> 00:41:57,226
football team, okay, I said I have Mass

846
00:41:57,274 --> 00:42:00,184
City, but they told me that man city is, at

847
00:42:00,208 --> 00:42:02,412
the lower table. This. I don't know

848
00:42:02,992 --> 00:42:05,880
what happened to them. We used to. We used to be

849
00:42:05,896 --> 00:42:07,772
on form, you know,

850
00:42:08,672 --> 00:42:11,360
but it's amazing that now I don't know what is happening to

851
00:42:11,376 --> 00:42:14,224
us. At least if you

852
00:42:14,248 --> 00:42:16,292
touch football, I can say some names.

853
00:42:17,292 --> 00:42:19,872
You touch boxing, I can say some names.

854
00:42:20,292 --> 00:42:22,868
You touch mma, I can say some names.

855
00:42:23,020 --> 00:42:25,844
You touch BBC, you touch cnn.

856
00:42:25,948 --> 00:42:28,676
Some things that are happening in the world. In Nigeria, there are

857
00:42:28,724 --> 00:42:31,492
spor. Everywhere books. I can say some

858
00:42:31,532 --> 00:42:34,508
things. You can't see

859
00:42:34,540 --> 00:42:37,468
anything happening in the world. You can't say anything. Now

860
00:42:37,500 --> 00:42:40,438
somebody in the side is saying, sir, we are in the world. Are.

861
00:42:40,478 --> 00:42:42,918
We are not of the world. Thank you.

862
00:42:44,698 --> 00:42:46,878
Grow. Let your mind grow.

863
00:42:48,378 --> 00:42:51,242
Let me say this, let me say this. You can never

864
00:42:51,290 --> 00:42:53,598
be better than the content of your mind.

865
00:42:55,298 --> 00:42:57,890
You see what I said you can never be.

866
00:42:57,914 --> 00:43:00,702
What? Better and, productive

867
00:43:00,870 --> 00:43:03,246
than the content of what? Of your

868
00:43:03,302 --> 00:43:03,898
mind.

869
00:43:07,158 --> 00:43:08,658
Attend conferences.

870
00:43:10,058 --> 00:43:12,278
If you have to pay, pay for them.

871
00:43:13,138 --> 00:43:16,082
If you have to go and seek people that are experts

872
00:43:16,130 --> 00:43:19,074
in the field, stick those people

873
00:43:19,186 --> 00:43:21,717
and, learn. See, please, this year,

874
00:43:21,861 --> 00:43:24,144
no chance. don't leave anything to chance.

875
00:43:25,804 --> 00:43:28,788
If you have to buy the books, invest and buy

876
00:43:28,836 --> 00:43:31,340
the books. Buy the

877
00:43:31,372 --> 00:43:33,956
books, Buy the books. Buy the

878
00:43:33,980 --> 00:43:36,816
books. Every area of your life that you

879
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:39,616
know that needs to shine more, buy

880
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,364
the books get the knowledge for it.

881
00:43:44,344 --> 00:43:47,288
Set. You see, I've said it now. Set spiritual goals

882
00:43:47,336 --> 00:43:50,176
should be the highest. Set mental goals

883
00:43:50,240 --> 00:43:53,119
for your mind. Transformation, of your mind

884
00:43:53,159 --> 00:43:54,099
is important.

885
00:43:56,559 --> 00:43:58,259
Set physical goals.

886
00:43:59,759 --> 00:44:02,055
Big stomach is not a sign of good

887
00:44:02,087 --> 00:44:02,779
living.

888
00:44:05,019 --> 00:44:07,419
Slim neck is not a sign of

889
00:44:07,459 --> 00:44:10,235
fitness. He says,

890
00:44:10,267 --> 00:44:13,035
saysir, you know, this is stomach, body. Your neck is on the

891
00:44:13,067 --> 00:44:15,319
air and your head is bigak on it.

892
00:44:16,659 --> 00:44:19,643
He says, I'm watching. I'm watching my weight.

893
00:44:19,691 --> 00:44:22,659
You are, you are. You are. You are dying because you have been eating

894
00:44:22,699 --> 00:44:25,363
too much carbohydrate. No protein, no

895
00:44:25,411 --> 00:44:26,919
nothing. You know,

896
00:44:28,559 --> 00:44:31,183
rice, rice oil, rice oil, rice

897
00:44:31,231 --> 00:44:34,151
oil, rice oil, rice oil, fried rice,

898
00:44:34,255 --> 00:44:36,991
white rice, baked rice, fried rice,

899
00:44:37,095 --> 00:44:38,579
white rice. G.

900
00:44:38,919 --> 00:44:40,299
Gariari,

901
00:44:42,359 --> 00:44:45,253
this is, I'm watching my protein level. You

902
00:44:45,261 --> 00:44:48,089
are not. There is no any protein level. You are watching.

903
00:44:49,509 --> 00:44:52,285
We see you. We say, oh, what is. What is

904
00:44:52,317 --> 00:44:55,213
happening? We can see your stomach is growing big.

905
00:44:55,301 --> 00:44:57,933
Is growing big. He, the Lord is

906
00:44:57,981 --> 00:45:00,973
good. We're living a good life where you

907
00:45:00,981 --> 00:45:03,660
are dying, brother. you are dying, sister.

908
00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:07,112
If they are confessing white spaghetti and pepper, they are confessing

909
00:45:07,136 --> 00:45:07,900
their sins.

910
00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:12,940
Truly, salvation has come into this house today.

911
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:16,824
No exercise. No

912
00:45:16,872 --> 00:45:19,792
exercise, nothing. So set

913
00:45:19,896 --> 00:45:21,180
physical goals.

914
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:25,100
Get to check your food.

915
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,160
I told us here on this platform, for the first time,

916
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,680
I got to find out that my ion level is

917
00:45:31,720 --> 00:45:34,360
low. And I was wondering what am I be using ion

918
00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:37,208
for? My vitamin D is low.

919
00:45:37,344 --> 00:45:39,432
There was nothing. I have been eating

920
00:45:39,496 --> 00:45:41,220
unhealy. Simple.

921
00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:46,371
You will see. When. When, let me say this

922
00:45:46,403 --> 00:45:49,163
now. I'm not showing it to shd people now, when you are

923
00:45:49,219 --> 00:45:51,899
single, you will. You will master the art of

924
00:45:51,947 --> 00:45:54,786
eating unhealthy. I, have been

925
00:45:54,842 --> 00:45:57,618
delivered some of you deliverances on the way.

926
00:45:57,738 --> 00:46:00,370
And it is s happening very soon, sooner than we

927
00:46:00,434 --> 00:46:03,250
expected. The other is some

928
00:46:03,274 --> 00:46:06,234
people are sending me s. I believing even what

929
00:46:06,266 --> 00:46:09,038
to eat. What to eat, brother, is because you are single.

930
00:46:10,338 --> 00:46:13,002
Sir, are you saying that we should go and marry? Sharp

931
00:46:13,050 --> 00:46:15,776
shp. No. As a single

932
00:46:15,832 --> 00:46:17,948
person, you can watch the food you eat.

933
00:46:20,888 --> 00:46:23,728
You can watch it. You can watch

934
00:46:23,768 --> 00:46:26,504
it as a

935
00:46:26,536 --> 00:46:29,144
single person. Married. Husbands, wife,

936
00:46:29,256 --> 00:46:31,800
children, brothers, sisters, believers.

937
00:46:31,944 --> 00:46:34,824
This body. This body needs to be

938
00:46:34,856 --> 00:46:36,028
taken care of.

939
00:46:37,968 --> 00:46:40,344
If you have to see the doctors, See the

940
00:46:40,376 --> 00:46:41,068
doctors.

941
00:46:43,618 --> 00:46:46,434
He says, I've been feeling pain in my head. I've been

942
00:46:46,466 --> 00:46:48,958
feeling pain. You have not been sleeping.

943
00:46:51,378 --> 00:46:54,250
Rest. Rest, Believers.

944
00:46:54,354 --> 00:46:54,998
Rest

945
00:46:59,858 --> 00:47:02,758
say we. We have been indoor 16 hours.

946
00:47:03,738 --> 00:47:06,642
After your 16 hours, please also have

947
00:47:06,690 --> 00:47:08,858
time. To do what? To sleep.

948
00:47:11,878 --> 00:47:14,646
Believers, as you're listening to me, have

949
00:47:14,702 --> 00:47:15,778
leisure time.

950
00:47:18,158 --> 00:47:20,870
Have lessure time. You

951
00:47:20,894 --> 00:47:23,486
Don't. You don't watch no movie.

952
00:47:23,662 --> 00:47:26,422
You don't, you don't go out to any park.

953
00:47:26,550 --> 00:47:29,375
You don't even take a walk. nothing,

954
00:47:30,595 --> 00:47:32,295
no leisure, nothing.

955
00:47:33,215 --> 00:47:35,743
Forakem is saying, don't wait to marry before you do

956
00:47:35,759 --> 00:47:38,487
it. You know, I

957
00:47:38,511 --> 00:47:40,591
literally know every restaurant in

958
00:47:40,623 --> 00:47:42,835
Deribboo. How?

959
00:47:43,575 --> 00:47:46,199
Because every time I'm coming back from work, I take

960
00:47:46,247 --> 00:47:49,143
myself out. I said, let me, let me learn to

961
00:47:49,159 --> 00:47:50,355
take myself out.

962
00:47:52,375 --> 00:47:54,981
I, will go there, sit down, order other food, eat, snap my

963
00:47:55,013 --> 00:47:57,065
face and feel good.

964
00:47:58,285 --> 00:48:01,138
And when I'm coming, I put my earpiece and do a video and put

965
00:48:01,170 --> 00:48:04,129
on, on, on, WhatsApp. And people are saying, oh, this guy

966
00:48:04,145 --> 00:48:06,697
is catching poo and he's enjoying himself. Of

967
00:48:06,729 --> 00:48:09,577
course you are waiting for

968
00:48:09,689 --> 00:48:12,433
bro to be the one to take you out. You are

969
00:48:12,457 --> 00:48:13,141
joking.

970
00:48:15,081 --> 00:48:16,901
Set financial goals.

971
00:48:18,641 --> 00:48:20,941
Set financial goals. Brothers,

972
00:48:21,361 --> 00:48:23,781
I beg you with the mecies of God.

973
00:48:25,041 --> 00:48:26,771
Set, financial goals.

974
00:48:28,511 --> 00:48:31,431
Let me say this now, very important in

975
00:48:31,471 --> 00:48:34,135
2025, don't take any

976
00:48:34,223 --> 00:48:36,959
major decision in your life that you don't have knowledge

977
00:48:37,015 --> 00:48:39,823
about. Do you hear what I

978
00:48:39,847 --> 00:48:42,511
said? Don't take any

979
00:48:42,591 --> 00:48:45,447
major decision in your life that you don't

980
00:48:45,479 --> 00:48:48,463
have knowledge. Get sufficient

981
00:48:48,567 --> 00:48:51,303
knowledge and information over every

982
00:48:51,407 --> 00:48:54,127
decision. Major decisions before you take

983
00:48:54,159 --> 00:48:57,021
them. Don't start

984
00:48:57,061 --> 00:48:59,561
out any major project without knowledge.

985
00:49:01,101 --> 00:49:04,045
Don't start out any kind. Don't take any

986
00:49:04,093 --> 00:49:06,941
move without knowledge. First

987
00:49:07,021 --> 00:49:09,765
knowledge of God's word and seek

988
00:49:09,813 --> 00:49:12,565
for counsel because there's safety in them from people around

989
00:49:12,613 --> 00:49:13,201
you.

990
00:49:15,421 --> 00:49:17,761
So set financial goals

991
00:49:18,421 --> 00:49:21,413
is not sinful. To set financial target for the

992
00:49:21,437 --> 00:49:24,397
year at the end of

993
00:49:24,429 --> 00:49:27,357
2025. This is the amount of money I want to

994
00:49:27,389 --> 00:49:30,229
raise. This is the amount of money I want to save.

995
00:49:30,365 --> 00:49:33,309
This is the amount of money I want to invest. It's not

996
00:49:33,365 --> 00:49:35,749
sinful if you

997
00:49:35,845 --> 00:49:38,805
fail financially. You know, you

998
00:49:38,813 --> 00:49:41,757
know the part of Psalms that said s from When I am

999
00:49:41,789 --> 00:49:44,661
young and I am old, I have seen,

1000
00:49:44,701 --> 00:49:47,673
I've never seen the righteous and their, children

1001
00:49:47,737 --> 00:49:50,457
beg for bread. You will be the first person we will

1002
00:49:50,489 --> 00:49:53,227
see, will see you. We will see you and your

1003
00:49:53,299 --> 00:49:56,275
children. You will beg for bread and bread till

1004
00:49:56,323 --> 00:49:58,231
we know that you are a bread beggar

1005
00:49:59,171 --> 00:50:01,811
in the sources of income that comes to you.

1006
00:50:01,931 --> 00:50:04,859
Get a job to do, brothers and sisters.

1007
00:50:04,995 --> 00:50:06,191
Learn a skill.

1008
00:50:08,571 --> 00:50:11,435
Learn a skill. Make use

1009
00:50:11,483 --> 00:50:12,551
of your hands,

1010
00:50:14,091 --> 00:50:15,911
make use of your mind.

1011
00:50:18,636 --> 00:50:20,216
sharpen your skills.

1012
00:50:22,681 --> 00:50:25,546
sharpen the things that you are doing. In fact,

1013
00:50:25,586 --> 00:50:28,338
let me say something now to somebody. You have been

1014
00:50:28,402 --> 00:50:31,370
doing things for free. Put a

1015
00:50:31,418 --> 00:50:34,226
price tag now on it. It's time to put A price

1016
00:50:34,266 --> 00:50:37,186
tag. Even if it's $5, put a price

1017
00:50:37,226 --> 00:50:40,226
tag on it. Two

1018
00:50:40,266 --> 00:50:43,098
people that will buy, don't mind, put a price

1019
00:50:43,162 --> 00:50:45,930
tag and continue polishing the

1020
00:50:45,978 --> 00:50:48,946
skill. Some of you are, a virtual

1021
00:50:49,026 --> 00:50:51,306
assistants. Some of you are, a, statistic,

1022
00:50:52,836 --> 00:50:55,820
statisticians. Some of you

1023
00:50:55,828 --> 00:50:58,788
are video editors. Some of you are something to

1024
00:50:58,812 --> 00:51:01,636
land. Some of you are real estate agents. Some of you are

1025
00:51:01,676 --> 00:51:04,451
house agents. Some of you money changers. M.

1026
00:51:04,476 --> 00:51:07,252
Many, many things happening. Some of you are. You are

1027
00:51:07,284 --> 00:51:09,616
baking. You're doing a lot of things.

1028
00:51:11,196 --> 00:51:12,376
Sharpen them.

1029
00:51:14,416 --> 00:51:17,071
Let me say this. amplify. Amplify,

1030
00:51:18,254 --> 00:51:21,206
the sources of income that comes into your life

1031
00:51:21,246 --> 00:51:24,190
in 2025. Come on, you are old

1032
00:51:24,278 --> 00:51:26,790
enough. You have put so much pressure on your

1033
00:51:26,838 --> 00:51:29,470
parents, on pastors, on friends,

1034
00:51:29,598 --> 00:51:32,494
on I find me, find me 2K. By the end

1035
00:51:32,510 --> 00:51:35,478
of five people. You have looked for five people. They should find

1036
00:51:35,502 --> 00:51:37,746
you 2K. That's 10,000 year.

1037
00:51:40,096 --> 00:51:42,928
And you, ah, are the most sharpest person we see

1038
00:51:42,992 --> 00:51:44,036
on Facebook.

1039
00:51:45,896 --> 00:51:48,672
You have a working brain, a

00:52:00,419 --> 00:52:03,368
get busy. In 2025, I'm,

1045
00:52:03,368 --> 00:52:06,360
challenging us. Paul said they have

1046
00:52:06,424 --> 00:52:08,268
learned to use their hands.

1047
00:52:09,728 --> 00:52:12,028
So use your hands this year.

1048
00:52:13,488 --> 00:52:15,908
