-
I could go on the computer and minutes of right
-
and just get my messages and get them prepared and
-
all that kind of stuff.
-
But you know, you got to wait, and you gotta plot.
-
Hey man.
-
You got to put stuff together, all stuff all to
-
the left and to the right and in the middle,
-
and then you got to piece it together and say, Okay, God,
-
what is that you want me to say?
-
Common theme? W you preach your message. Don't preach a
-
whole bunch of stuff unless it relates to that one theme.
-
Every message has a narrative, has a thought. Oftentimes you
-
take what the preacher is saying, and then you got
-
to say what you want to say to the people
-
from what the preacher said. So I want to take
-
from what the book said to us to say to
-
you doing today.
-
Amen, If you would go to the Book of Philippians,
-
if you will, chapter number two. Couldn't see you, brother,
-
tell them God bless you on today, all of you
-
that will here, like Missia is here, God bless you, heymen,
-
clap your hands for her. Heymen, a little bit of reading.
-
Will the Book of Philippians shop the number two, Amen,
-
and we'll go from verse number one to verse number eleven.
-
Would you clap your hands for these beautiful ushers as
-
well and our juniors. Hallelujah. Amen. Amen. The Book of Philippians,
-
when you have it, stand on your phone, and the
-
Bible says, if there be there for any consolation, you say,
-
if there be any encouragement, and if it's found in Christ,
-
tell your neighbors found in Christ.
-
Not only that, if any comfort of.
-
Love or unconditional love, if any fellowship, unity of community,
-
thank you, pastor Jay, if any bowels and mercy, considering compassion,
-
Paul says to the Philippian Church, then if there is
-
that in Christ, if it's in Christ, then fulfill ye
-
my joy. Not only let that be in Christ, like minded,
-
having the same love, and being of one.
-
Accord and of one mind.
-
And then he says, now, whatever you do, he says,
-
whatever you do, let nothing be done through strife and
-
vain glory.
-
Instead that when.
-
You do, don't tell everybody what you did. And my
-
mama said, don't let you right hand no what your
-
left handed done or left hand the right hand of done.
-
If you're gonna do it, don't do it in vain glory,
-
because if you do it.
-
And announce it on the housetop a reward from God. Hallelujah.
-
He said it.
-
Don't let it not be done in vane glory, but
-
what in lowliness of mind? And then he said, let
-
each esteem, in other word, are to magnify you, out
-
of boasting you, out of brag on you.
-
I'm already preaching.
-
I feel a preaching there, hollelujah, better than I do
-
in my own self. Looking not every man on his
-
own things, but every man also on the things of others.
-
Let this mind being you Christ Jesus, being in the
-
form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal
-
with God. In other words, when you give stuff out,
-
that don't mean you missing something. Matter of fact, when
-
you give it out, God said, I give you more.
-
When you give it ain't mean you're losing. It mean
-
you winning. Oh God, I wish, but made himself from
-
no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant,
-
and was made in the likeness of men. And being
-
found in the fashion of a man, he humbled himself,
-
and it became obedient unto death, even the death of
-
the cross. Or if a God aught in him, and
-
giving him a name which is above every name, that
-
at the name of Jesus, that every need should bow
-
of things in heaven and on the earth, amen and
-
things under the earth, And that every tongue shall confess
-
that Jesus CHRISTI is of God the Father.
-
Today I would like.
-
To focus on verse number four, just a little bit
-
from this thought of right what the writer is saying
-
the theme what I would like to say to you
-
us on today. First number four says look not, tell
-
your neighbor, look not every man on his own things
-
and also on the things of others.
-
I would like to use for a message this morning,
-
this afternoon, good.
-
Looking out, tell your neighbor, good looking out. H Thank you,
-
I appreciate you for looking at for protecting me from
-
rescuing me, for helping me.
-
Thank you for looking out not only.
-
Ah for yourself, but thank you for looking out for
-
me and for others.
-
Again, good looking out, Father.
-
I thank you now for what you're placed in mind
-
we're to deliver to your people and those of us
-
that are here and those that are on Facebook, book
-
a social media. Thank you for the word of God
-
that would destroy yoaks and lift up burdens. So God
-
to have your way in the haunts of your people
-
as we share your word on today. And so God,
-
we don't have you over. Your word is good all
-
by itself. If we just read the scriptures, that's good enough.
-
Somebody got revelation from that. But God help us even
-
now to preach and teach your word. And Jesus name,
-
we pray somebody shall a man high five of these
-
seven people and tell them, good looking out, good looking out.
-
Come on, act like you're really in the.
-
Seven seven seven. Somebody shout good looking out.
-
Today.
-
My purpose, that's it's just to look out, to help
-
us to look out for one another, not only for
-
one another, but also for others. Now we want to
-
look out, not only within our own eyes. We want
-
to look out according to how Christ looked out for us,
-
for looking out for me. But not only do I
-
appreciate him looking out for me, I also appreciate him
-
looking out for you. I appreciate him for looking out
-
because if it had not been for him, I might
-
have been dead. I wish I had a witness and
-
have been shut up in the grave. But he looked
-
out for me. It's a lot of times I should
-
have been dead.
-
I know it.
-
For a fact, but he protected me from death, and
-
he covered me even when I was in the wrong,
-
not when I was dirt. He looked out for us
-
any way, for us to get it all together. But
-
while we was yet sinners and without strength, is said
-
that he looked out for us. Somebody shall good looking out. Yeah,
-
he looked out for me. Healed my body. The doctors
-
didn't know had a heart attack. They didn't even know
-
where it came from. But yet when the doctors examined me,
-
they say, we know you had a heart attack, but
-
we show no signs that you have had a heart attack.
-
That's some doctors been been looking over you. Amen, don't
-
know what's going on. Shut up in your grain, gave
-
up the ghosts and even through in the town. But
-
thank god for Jesus Christ who looked out for us.
-
He looked out for us, He blessed us, he protected us,
-
He provides for us.
-
Amen. Amen, Yet he still looked out for us.
-
When we think of the terms of good looking out
-
and this message, it relates to looking out for one another,
-
not only looking out for one another. We ought to
-
look out for others. We all not be selfish just
-
to take care of us. We are to all mindful
-
to take care of others. There are other people that
-
need your support, that need your help. God said, listen,
-
when you reach out, reach out to the poor, reach
-
out to the fatherless, to the orphans, and to the stranger.
-
In other words, he looks out for all of them.
-
Not only that, he also and if he looks out
-
for the poor and all of those kind of people,
-
we aught to look out for the poor as well.
-
Can I get a witness? Amen?
-
When we talk about good looking out, it relates to
-
the strong, burn the affirmities of the week. Amen, hallelujah. Now,
-
but it may come a turn, your turn, Amen, that
-
you may become weak.
-
Amen.
-
You may not think that you need anybody right now,
-
but that might be a time.
-
Amen, that you're gonna need somebody.
-
But in the process, while you got shortened in your body,
-
strengthen your mind and strengthen your spirit. You are not
-
bury what you have able to assist somebody else. So
-
the Bible declares, let us strong, hallelujah, make a muscle
-
real quick. Let the strong brother, infirmities of the week.
-
Now's some folks that don't have what you have, but
-
you got it. That's some folks that don't know what
-
you know, but you know it. Hallelujah. Go to the
-
places you can go, but you can take and carry
-
them with you.
-
Amen.
-
We are not look out for our own only, but
-
we are to also look out for others. Tell your
-
neighbor you are to look out for others. Hallelujah. Good
-
looking now means it relates to having each other's back.
-
Hallelujah. Why ay man, she look out for me.
-
Now's some things I can't tell her about other people
-
because she'll look out for me and try to fight
-
and box and stuff like that.
-
Amen.
-
When it relates to look a good looking out, that
-
relates that I got your back. In other words, you
-
ain't got no matter what, I still got your back. See,
-
some people got your back. They got your back when
-
they're doing bad. Oh I wish I had somebody up
-
in here. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Listen, I got your back. It's
-
a whole bunch of people to be with you. But
-
until when you start going through things, you'll find out
-
if they with you or not. Hallelujah. Somebody shot good
-
looking out good looking now. So no matter what you're
-
going through and where you are what you I got
-
your back.
-
Amen.
-
Jesus said amen to some of those who was criticizing
-
his disciples when they came off the Mountain of Transfiguration,
-
and they say, your boys ain't got enough strength to
-
cast out this demon. And he came down and say,
-
what you doing talking to my boys? I wish I
-
had somebody hallelujah, hallelujah that when you can't deforce to
-
mother folk that would defend you, You got Christ that
-
would defend you.
-
Tell your neighbors, say, neighbor, I got your back.
-
Yeah.
-
Here it is a declaration of what's mine is yours.
-
In other words, if I got it, you got it. Amen, hallelujah.
-
And we understand this good lane going up as children.
-
Ay Man, you know we was a big brother. I
-
was a big brother. So amen, I have to look
-
out for my little brother. Come on, somebody, hallelujah. Nobody
-
could really you couldn't talk bad to my little brother.
-
Amen. I can talk bad.
-
To him, hallelujah, but you can't talk bad to him.
-
Amen.
-
Listen, hold up, wait a minute, wait a minute, Amen,
-
not that at somebody, hallelujah, hallelujah. That's why Tim was
-
playing in church. I send your nigga to my not
-
to come on. Calm down, sir, hallelujah. Not that one
-
right there, Good looking out, Amen. Somebody got to have
-
your back. Sometimes you can't even speak for yourself, and
-
you need somebody to speak for you, hallelujah. Sometimes you
-
ain't got enough strength to help you up the Amen,
-
to do whatever you need to do. Sometimes you're gonna
-
need somebody in place in the gap, Amen, to stand
-
in the gap to help you. It's a declaration of
-
what mine is yours. If I got it, you got it.
-
Tell your neighbor if I got it. If I got it,
-
you got it, hallelujah. Is a declaration to others that
-
need to worry. Amen. In other words, I got you
-
whatever the cover cost is. If I can cover the cost,
-
come on somebody, hallelujah. Sometimes you don't have the need
-
or the necessities, amen, or the provision to get to
-
other places.
-
But you got to be with somebody who will take
-
care of the cover costs. Amen.
-
But I got your covered. I got your cover, hallelujah. Amen,
-
Good looking out. Then it is described when we look
-
at the Gospel of Luke, chapter number ten, twenty five
-
thirty seven. It talks about a story, and most of
-
us are familiar with this story of the Good Samaritan.
-
Y'all remember the story of the Good Samaritan. He was
-
the spies and avoided by Jewish folks. Hey man, he
-
didn't have no reputation. He wasn't in church.
-
Amen.
-
I say he wasn't in church. Amen, he wasn't in
-
the church community. But when he saw somebody on the
-
side of the road who had been beaten, who had
-
been robbed, who have been left to death. Amen, there
-
was this good stop to aid him. Somebody shout, good
-
looking out. I wish I had hallelujah, because sometimes you
-
can go around church folks like Jewish teachers and priests
-
and lee vice that cross the other side.
-
Come on, somebody. That's some folks that come on.
-
There's some people that need you, that need your help,
-
and hoping on your way to church.
-
You won't stop.
-
Matter of fact, you'll go to the other side. You
-
know you got what they need to help them. Come on, somebody, hallelujah.
-
But you too, too busy being religious? I wish I
-
had somebody here, I say, you too busy being religious?
-
Hey man, to stop and aid support for them. So
-
that it is important to understand that even in this
-
cross over to the other side, the leet crossed over
-
to the other side. But this American is called good
-
why because he comes According to Stephen Kobe, he disclosed
-
in his book The Self in Habit he had what
-
he called a abundance mindset. Tell your neighbor, you got
-
to have an abundance mindset. When you don't have an
-
abundance mindset, you have a scarcity mindset. A scarcity mindset.
-
Hey man, I gotta hold onto what I got unless
-
I lose it. Come on, somebody, they say that the
-
pie is only big enough for me, ay man, and
-
nobody else can get a piece of the pie. So
-
I got to hoard everything that I got because if
-
I give what I got, then I'm gonna lose everything
-
I got. Come on, that's a he said, you got
-
to have an abundance. Tell your neighbor, you got to
-
have an abundance mindset.
-
M h yeah.
-
In order for us uh huh to look out for another,
-
we too have to have an abundant mindset. Is true
-
here in this text that Christ has an abundant mindset.
-
This mindset. Believe this means that there is more than enough.
-
Tell your neighbor there's more than enough. Hey man, okay,
-
come on, abundance. Come on, somebody, hallelujah. So you can
-
quit being stingy, so you can be quit being fearful. Hallelujah,
-
so you can quit being mad and jealous and enbus.
-
Come on, tell your neighbor there's more than enough. Come on,
-
that's enough for me and a whole lot more.
-
Amen.
-
Don't you know our guards on a calid of one
-
thousand and heels. Come on, somebody, hallelujah. Tell your neighbor.
-
I have an abundant mindset. There's more than enough. In
-
other words, I can share what I got because there's
-
more than enough. Tell your neighbor, there's more than enough.
-
Even with your little bit. God will take that little
-
bit you got and break it. Come on, somebody, I
-
say he will break your little bit. I say he
-
will break your little bit what you got, He'll break
-
you a little bit, Bless it and distribute it. Amen,
-
that you can feed about five thousand and say you
-
just trying to feel your two, three or four in
-
your house. But God said I got enough for you
-
me come on, hallelujah. If you just put it in
-
my hands, hallelujah, there's more than enough. Tell your neighbor
-
you got to have an abundant mindset.
-
Uh huh.
-
Either there's more than enough because you in the business
-
of trying to get all you can and can all
-
you get, and that's why you ain't got nothing, but
-
know you got it all. Seemed like you got holes
-
in your pocket, hallelujah, because everything you get you spind
-
on you. Oh, come on, somebody, hallelujah. You don't have
-
a mindset of other people. Hey man, you feel like
-
the poet that you bought or the job that you
-
work for.
-
Listen, this all belongs to you.
-
Listen God, that you can be a blessing to somebody
-
else or I wish I had somebody right here at hallelujah.
-
You better look at your closet on today. When you leave,
-
you gotta find out of them, all of them dresses
-
and shoes and pants and all of that kind of
-
stuff that you ain't wanting in about four five years.
-
You ain't gonna never worry. Matter of fact, I know
-
some of that I lose weight. Come on, somebody, hallelujah.
-
All I'm go'a get back in there. Hallelujah. It's been
-
twenty five years. You ain't lost nine yet. Come on, hallelujah, hallelujah.
-

-
somebody that's slimmer than you. Come on with I wish
-
I had somebody hallelujah that can fit. Then come on
-
with somebody that can fit. Get them no chunk either.
-
See you are you?
-
We templately give people all of our messed up stuff,
-
stuff we don't want to mess with no more. Come on, somebody,
-
always taking the good and giving them the bad. Come on, somebody,
-
But the Lord told me to tell you, if you
-
start giving them the good, he gonna make room for
-
you to get some more good. Come on, somebody and
-
the good because you keep holding on to the good
-
you got. And since you holding on to the good
-
you got, you don't look to get nobody nothing else
-
because that's all you got. You ain't never gave away
-
nothing good. Tell your neighbor you got to give it away.
-
You gotta give it away. You gotta give it away. Hallelujah.
-
And see you in the business a building bigger boning.
-
Hallelujah, alelujah, it's.
-
All about you. I got to build these bonds. I
-
gotta get some more. I got some more, I gotta
-
get some I got guests. The more, I guess for who,
-
for you or for somebody else. You know, the rich
-
man had to die, and when he died, he left
-
everything he had on earth. You can't take none of
-
this stuff. Oh I wish I had somebody right here. Hallelujah.
-
That's been a few folks that been buried in the limo.
-
But listen, the limo ain't did no service in the grave.
-
Oh I wish I had somebody hallelujah, hallelujah.
-
Listen. And you ain't got nothing following you behind you
-
when you go to.
-
Hallelujah, niggad you came into the world, and neggad you
-
shall return hallelujah. In other words, you might well give
-
up everything, something of that stuff that you got, so
-
that you can be a help to somebody else.
-
I wish I had a blessing right there. Hallelujah. Glory
-
to God.
-
You're building bigger barns, and man, your soul is required, hallelujah.
-
The more you can receive, Amen, I say the more
-
you give, the more you can receive. The Bible declares
-
in Luke six thirty eight. It says, gives. Tell your neighbor,
-
I'm telling. I'm talking good amen, hallelujah, hallelujah, I'm preaching
-
the Bible. Hemen, huh, somebody, shot, come on, here's the promise.
-
Give and it shall be giving back to you. Y'all ready,
-
y'all ready, good messure. The Lord said, I'm making room.
-
It's getting deeper, but it ain't gonna nothing. Nothing happens
-
until you give our card. Hallelujah. I say nothing to you.
-
Give.
-
And so he said, I'm gonna give it back to
-
your good messure. And then he said, I'm gonna make
-
more room.
-
Somebody.
-
Oh, I feel more room in here. I feel like
-
somebody getting ready to go to the more room. Come on, somebody, shout,
-
more room, he says. Listen, it's gonna be messured well.
-
And when I'm measuring, I'm.
-
Gonna make it. And what I'm gonna do is press it.
-
Oh card.
-
I wish I had somebody right now. Hallelujah. Somebody's about
-
to change your mind about giving. Hallelujah, hallelujah. He said,
-
press down. Not only that, somebody shout.
-
More room shaken together, Who I heard you?
-
Somebody shall.
-
Come on, shake, shake, shake, hallelujah, hallelujah.
-
God, come on.
-
I'm just trying to tell somebody. Let me profits out
-
to you real quick. God is making room for you. Hallelujah.
-
I say, God is making space for you. He's enlaarner
-
in your territory. Somebody shall shake, shake, shake, He's making
-
him on room. Not only would he on this ship
-
fast that if you give, if you learn how to give,
-
that it we come running over. And shall men pour
-
into your bosom and tell your neighbors and neighbor get
-
ready for overflow.
-
Tell him get over, get ready for overflow.
-
In other words, you gotta understand when we talk about
-
this a brank But then your second Corinthians eight and eleven.
-
Now I'm therefore m hm. He say, perform on it,
-
on what on giving. In other words, he's telling the
-
Corinthian church to give. The church ain mad at Jerusalem.
-
He said, act on what you said you was gonna do.
-
And sometime we can't do what we're gonna do because
-
we ain't got a willing mind.
-
Hallelujah.
-
Because can't nobody make you do it, can't nobody to
-
drag you through the dirty. You got to have a
-
want to do it. Hallelujah. You got to have a
-
willing mind. Tell your neighbor you got to have a
-
willing mind. Another word, Paul is talking to the jersey.
-
You say, now there for a perform on it. You promise,
-
because sometimes people promise stuff but they don't show no
-
actions toward it.
-
Hallelujah.
-
He said that you showed there was a readiness of will,
-
so that you may be a performance also of which
-
that you have.
-
In other words, you can't give no more than what
-
you have. But if you.
-
Promise to give that somebody. I heard you singing the
-
song I give.
-
Myself away, Oh.
-
Give mine itself, give myself away, so you can you me.
-
But you won't hard to come to church.
-
You won't raise your hand, you won't pray, you won't
-
glory if I God, I kive myself away. Come on,
-
you gotta break on your promises. I say you got
-
to bank on your promises. Whatever you have promised God, Amen, hallelujah.
-
He's not mock he's looking you promise. That's that's why
-
it's important that you don't make a promise, to make
-
a promise and broke it. Come on, somebody, you got
-
to keep your promises if you give yourself away.
-
Come on, my life is.
-
My mind on.
-
To you. I be longe, I give myself.
-
Really, tell a well, you gotta give you, You gotta
-
give God everything. God don't just want a portion of you.
-
I say, God don't want a portion of you. Let
-
me say that again. God don't want a portion of you.
-
He want all of you. Tell you he want all
-
of you. Not only do you have to have a
-
willing to have an attitude of gratitude and given. The
-
Bible said that he is so and sparingly shall reap
-
also sparingly, And which he's so boundfully shall also reap boundfully.
-
So he said, let every man let nobody else. Let
-
every man purpose what is in his heart. Let him
-
give not grudgingly, hessity for God and love of what
-
a cheer forgive? Oh I wish I had some praises
-
right there? What my giver said? Come on and lift
-
your hands and give God. Come on, you don't mind caving,
-
You'll take You'll take that coat off your back and
-
give it. Come on, somebody, you'll give them your life.
-
I wish I had them. Folks say, I will give
-
them my last hallelujah. Brother, they give hallelujah, hallelujah. But
-
I don't mind looking out. And then in Proverbs nineteen seventy,
-
he say, he that generously give to the poor, when
-
we give to the poor, did you not know that
-
we are lending to God?
-
Hallelujah? When you see those that are in need and
-
you give to them.
-
Come on, God, it's changing our heart right, you're lending
-
that unto me.
-
He said.
-
The poor shall be with you always. Come on, somebody,
-
and you got to have an eye, not your eyes.
-
You need to have God's eyes. You don't need your ears,
-
you need God ears.
-
Come on. You don't need your hand, you need CAD's hand. Amen.
-
Your heart needs to be broken after people. God loves people.
-
Hallelujah, and he should help us along the way. Kip,
-
God of Praise right there, hallelujah, so oh glory. So
-
here in the text we see that pauls give prescriptions
-
of an abundan's mindset, using Christ as an example.
-
He says in verse number one, if there.
-
Besolation, in other words, in Christ Jesus, if there be
-
any encouragement in Christ. Not only that, if there be
-
any comfortable love, if there be this unconditional love, this
-
a copy love. Amen, that you don't have to judge
-
people before you give to them. And you got to
-
wait for them to you get come on, somebody, Well
-
when they get it together, then I'm gonna finally give
-
it to them.
-
No no, no, no no no no no no no.
-
You got to have this unconditional love that when you give,
-
because you're a cheer forgivel and you having the bund
-
this mindset.
-
Listen that even when.
-
You give it, I ain't gonna give it to them
-
because they just gonna blow it. They blew it last
-
week and they're gonna blow it. You just keep on giving. Hallelujah.
-
That's so many people that don't give to churches because
-
they think the pastor take all of the money to
-
come on somebody. That might be true, it's some churches,
-
but don't worry about what they do to the money.
-
Hallelujah. You know that you gave.
-
Out of a cheerful heart and out of obedience. And
-
if you be obedient and willing and obedient God.
-
To you the good.
-
I come to tell somebody to get ready for your heart.
-
It's because it's coming. Hallelujah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
-
He said.
-
Now, if that be any comfortable love, and if it
-
be any fellowship of the spirit or unity of community, hallelujah,
-
if it be any bowers or mercy or compassion, passion
-
for a purpose of planning and persevernce, he said, if
-
you see that in Christ Jesus, Do anybody see that
-
in Christ Jesus?
-
Hallelujah? That heal?
-
Is that the one that don't mind looking out for us?
-
Do you anybody see that Jesus is one who looks
-
out for us? He said, If you see any of that,
-
he says, fulfill my joy.
-
He said, don't only talk about it, Oh God, be
-
about it.
-
Hallelujah. In other words, he said, perform this. He said,
-
be light minded. I show the same love for others.
-
He said, be on one accord and be on one mind.
-
He said, encourage and spot well the people that you
-
come into contact with.
-
He said, let nothing be done and strife of.
-
Vainglory that if you're gonna do it, do it without
-
expressing how good you are, and express how good God
-
is that God has been so good to you that
-
you got more than enough to be a blessing to somebody.
-
He said.
-
But otherwise, but in lowliness of mind, that each one
-
esteemed others.
-
Better than themselves.
-
Tell your neighbors, a neighbor good looking out in other words,
-
that were gonna look out real good like Christ. Then
-
we got to recognize what Christ did in the text.
-
First of all, Christ became a servant. Tell your neighbors,
-
a neighbor, if you're gonna look out real good, you're
-
gonna have to be a servant like Christ. Oh God,
-
hallyluj You'll tell your neighbor. You got to be a servant.
-
You got to be a servant. You got to be
-
a servant. In other words, who, being in the form
-
of God, according to verse number six, thought it not
-
robbery to be equal. In other words, he was sitting
-
at the right hand of the Father. But he said, Lord,
-
I'll give them my life. The Bible of the class
-
that he looked in heaven, and looked at the earth,
-
and looked under the earth, and couldn't find nobody. But
-
there was a lamb that was slain from the foundations
-
of the world. He'd owned everything, minister right, And the
-
truth of the matter is, he says, listen, I know
-
you can't find even though I got to relieve my
-
first estate, I go down there because if I give
-
my life, I'm still not losing nothing. I wish I
-
had somebody. Hallelujah. If you give your best shoes, still
-
not losing nothing. As a matter of fact, when it
-
came down, you would think that he would reign as
-
a king because oftentimes when we make a position and
-
get higher than we thought, we we think people ought
-
to serve us. But she, oh God, I wish I
-
had somebody, hallelujah. And that's why we open up the
-
hourway for the bishops to come down the road to walk,
-
and everybody got to stand up, because we think that
-
people have to serve us.
-
As the truth of the matter is, we are not
-
to be served. We are here to serve.
-
Oh, I wish I had a neighbor right there, hallelujah,
-
to serve hallelujah. The Bible say, but he made himself
-
of no reputation, hallelujah. You gotta be careful about your ego, hallelujah,
-
or what you gonna do and what you're not gonna do.
-
Come on, somebody, Glory to God.
-
If you gonna kive, if you're gonna be a certain,
-
if you're gonna serve, you got to serve with your
-
whole heart. On serving the Lord will pay off after while.
-
High five your neighbor right down and tell them, serving
-
the Lord will pay off.
-
After while.
-
It took on him no reputation that took him to
-
him the form of a servant, and was made in
-
the likeness of men. The Bible said to serve and
-
not to be served. The Bible of the class in
-
twenty twenty seven. Matthew, twenty twenty seven, whosoever will be
-
chief among you, whoever would like to be the captain,
-
whoever would like to be the leader of the person
-
in charge, I like that. Amen, Ah, We're gonna hummele
-
the down, Send it down some him among you. Let
-
him do what, Let him serve. If you want to
-
be the boss. It costs ah to be the boss. Hallelujah.
-
And we're not like the gentiles who is looking for position. Hallelujah.
-
We'll like them that follow after Christ. For Jesus Christ
-
had to himself listen, I did not come to be
-
came to minister. Tell your neighbors, say, neighbor, I didn't
-
come to be minister too, but I came to minister. Hallelujah.
-
When I came to church this morning, I came to serve.
-
Come on, somebody, hallelujah.
-
Rather it was on the instrument, on the praise team,
-
or even in my seat, but I came to serve.
-
I came to gift card to praise. I came to
-
serve card, my praise, my money, and my honey, whatever
-
the case may be. Tell your neighbors, say, neighbor, I
-
didn't come to be served.
-
I came to serve.
-
And that's why I like the apostle Paul at first
-
Corinthians nine, and it talks about it. Say foe, I
-
be free. Tell your neighbor. You may be free. You
-
may be captain, you may be in charge. He say, no,
-
I may be old men. What has good right here?
-
I said?
-
He said, no, I may be free. Check this out.
-
Come on, because you have an abundance mindset, clovery to God.
-
He said, I may be free from all man. He say,
-
yet I made myself servant unto all. Listen.
-
Even though you free, you got to make yourself a servant, hallelujah.
-
Or come on, card has made you free, and then
-
that freedom card has made you a.
-
Servant, a sign or a daughter. But God sent you
-
here to be a service in the Lord's church.
-
Come on, somebody, thank you card.
-
Come on and cop your hands and give God praise
-
because you're a servant.
-
You're not a servant of your own.
-
Needs, but you the people needs. I wish I had
-
somebody right here, hallelujah. And if you make yourself a servant,
-
you got to become all feends to all men, hallelujah.
-
Listen.
-
Off the time I go to house parties, we've been in.
-
I tell you, we've been in birthday parties and funerals,
-
graduation parties, and regular house parties. And I think they
-
invite us back to the house parties cause we don't
-
judge them.
-
Career reminded of Jesus who said, with the publicans.
-
Hallelujah, because off the time, they can't see nothing. They
-
can't see God until they see you, hallelujah.
-
Non Longe ain't blowing no weed in my faith. I'm cool.
-
Soon they start blowing weed in my face. Then I
-
got to go. I don't want to leave high You know,
-
I got a little tolerance and stuff. It's gonna be
-
tough for me to drive home. Hallelujah, hallelujah. But I
-
don't mind going to the graduation parties. I don't mind
-
going to the funerals. Gotta go anyway. I don't mind
-
going to the baby showers. I don't mind going to
-
the wedding. I don't mind going to the house parties.
-
Why because I'm a servant. Sometimes God will put you
-
in places. Hallelujah. That church folk don't think you.
-
All be hallelujah.
-
But if you got enough annoyington up on you, you
-
can become all things to all men, hallelujah.
-
Paul said, I became a Jew that I may win
-
some of them. I became one of them who was
-
under the law, that I may win some of them,
-
some of them who were not under the law, that
-
I may.
-
Win some of them. He say.
-
I became weak because something was weak, so that I
-
can win some of them. He says, listen, I made
-
myself a slave, a servant, so that I can serve
-
God by servant. Had somebody right there, hallelujah. Through reason
-
and the way you grow is through your service. Sit
-
in and go to church all you want to. If
-
you ain't doing no serving, I promise you you ain't groom.
-
You ain't doing the service of Lord. Hallelujah.
-
We got to go out by to the highways in
-
the box and compel them to come in hallelujah with
-
the Paul said man, I made myself a servant. I
-
made all things to all men, that I may what
-
that I made by all means, save some of them.
-
Tell your neighbors, said, neighbor, good looking now, good looking out?
-
Tell them good looking now, thank you for going out
-
to the give for going to the badways, and thank
-
you for having a heart that is broken off.
-
For God's people.
-
Amen to see some of them, say come on, clap
-
your hands right there. Tell your neighbors and neighbor couldn't
-
looking nowt couldn't looking out Saclate Christ. Not only my
-
God became a servant, but Christ's sacrifice all hallelujah through
-
or what he looked through.
-
In other wris.
-
Christ's sacrifice all to look out for all those of
-
us through his obedience. Tell your neighbors, say, neighbor, you
-
gotta look out for others through your obedience the Bible
-
saying Philipians too, and they being found in the fashion
-
of a man himself. He became obedient unto death, even
-
the death of the cross. Now, y'all gotta catch that.
-
We talk about God becoming a man the ultimate sacrifice.
-
What do you get willing to to help a brother
-
out to help us? What are you willing to give up?
-
What are you willing to give in to?
-
Amen?
-
To see your brother prosper, to be in good health, Amen,
-
even as his soul prosper. It helps us to understand
-
this concept because you find in Isaiah fifty three and
-
ten eleven he said, yet it please, it please God
-
to break you so that God can distribute you to
-
other people. Hallelujah. So you don't want to be broken,
-
but God love is broken and a constrite spirit. Hallelujah.
-
And so whatever you're going through, you're really not going
-
through for yourself.
-
The testimony that you got is not your testimony.
-
It's God's testimony how you went through, but how He
-
brought you out. Come on here, job, hallelujah. You gonna
-
lose everything you got, but don't worry about it. I'm
-
gonna give you tumble for your trouble so you can
-
be blessed. I had somebody right here right now to
-
kill card praise hallelujah. What you're going through, it's not
-
only for you, but it's for somebody else.
-
You telling me that what Jesus went through, that it
-
pleased the Lord. The Bible said please.
-
Him, and not only to bruise him, but he had
-
been through somebody.
-
I know we've been complaining about what we're going through, hallelujah.
-
But God is just taking you.
-
Through a process so that you can produce something that's
-
gonna help other people out. Oh God, hallelujah. Oh I
-
wish I had somebody right here hallelujah. Yes, So he
-
brows grief and then he made his soul. Come on,
-
he's making his mind, his intellects emotion because you're growing.
-
If you had not been through it, you wouldn't be
-
where you are today. But you're stronger, your wife. Oh
-
I wish I had I felt that in my home spirit.
-
You better than you ever heard. Look like you don't
-
look like what you been through. Paid somebody out all
-
shot and give God or praise right.
-
There, hallelujah.
-
And you didn't do all of this for yourself yourself.
-
You ain't gonna do that for yourself. God is making
-
you an offering to justify, not just you, but to
-
justify many. Come on, somebody that he may niquiges the
-
truth of the matter. Else, if the prisons of this
-
world would have known who he was, Come on, somebody, hallelujah.
-
If the devil had known that this was gonna make
-
you better, gonna make you stronger, gonna make your.
-
Wise to never put that on you. Hallelujah. Glory to
-
card Woo, because out my card. Now you got something
-
on you that that devil can't hold onto. Hallelujah.

-
an opportunity to stop by the Parkway Center.
-
It's Della, and we know the hard work it took
-
for them to build that facility. And I tell you that.
-
When we came into contact with her, she prophesied. She
-
gave us instructions. She said, Chris, ask for everything. She said,
-
everything I've asked for, God has given us favor. And
-
we got the two million dollars because we asked for it.
-
We got the seven thousand, seven hundred thousand dollars tense
-
because we asked for it. We want you all to
-
have a blue vence too, because we want this to
-
be like one big campus. Because we integrated, we got
-
strange bedfellas. Hallelujah. Somebody shot overflow. But we're not doing
-
this only for us, for us to look good and Brad,

Somebody shout good looking out held us hostage medicine right.
-
We couldn't even walk off, she said. Chris, whatever you do,
-
she said, listen, ask.
-
For everything. I'm asking for everything. You ought to ask
-
for everything.
-
You know what, because you are a child of the king,
-
and that he owned the cattle of a thousand heels,
-
will he not give to his children? Somebody shout everything
-
good looking out, good looking out. I'm closing, But I
-
thought about it even when I was going through my storm.
-
That was certain different kind of people going through. Folks
-
will leave you. They will not look out for you. Hallelujah.
-
They will walk off and completely leave you. And that
-
was the folks you thought that was really gonna look out.
-
Can I get a witness?
-
Have you ever you thought y'all were gonna be together
-
to then y'all had little heart, y'all drew together the cupids, hallelujah.
-
That thing didn't work out because all the time, when
-
people looking out for you, you'll know them because He's
-
be the people that stayed.
-
And some people stay and some people stay for the
-
wrong reasons. Can I say this to you.
-
Some people stay because they just tolerate you, and maybe
-
you keep them around because you tolerate them. Oh wow,
-
wow wow. They ain't looking out for you. They just
-
tolerate you. They really don't like you, they don't like
-
nothing about you.
-
Hallylujah.
-
But then are those who are committed, somebody shall commit it.
-
But let me tell you about this group. This is
-
the group that says, a man, understand what you're doing,
-
and it don't look right to me. And I don't
-
know if it's gonna work or not, But no matter what,
-
I'm gonna stay with you. Can I get a witness.
-
They don't even hardly believe. But because committed, and because
-
they have a love for you, and they have an
-
abundance mindset, that's enough. And even if you fall off,
-
I might catch it, hallelujah. But I'm gonna be right
-
there and then you it ain't believe that you ain't
-
never have to fuss with, never have to argue with.
-
They just believe. So we just believe. We don't know
-
if it's crazy or not. We just believe, and we
-
trust what God is placed in you.
-
Good looking now.
-
Because of those groups of people, we are still here
-
because of you. We are still here and getting better
-
every day.
-
You know why?
-
Good looking now? And let me tell you, we looking
-
out for you even the more. Hallelujah. And we want
-
you to make sure that you look out, but that
-
we look out for one another, look out for one another.
-
Don't criticize, don't talk about, don't neglect. If you got it,
-
they got it. Hallelujah. Somebody shot good looking now
