Don't be left in the dark. Get proper understanding of life

through the Word of God. My people perish for lack of

illumination which gives direction.
-
Remain placed as Reverend was far and illuminates your mind
-
with the Word of God with all simplicity and clarity.
-
So the topic. Is lessons of friendship.
-
We are taking the 5th. Leg and the particular focus for
-
today is trust management in friendship trust.
-
Management in friendship permit me if to this message we sound
-
more like reading out. Poetic lines.
-
It's most likely that the most significant aspects of the
-
message today would. Sound more like real loud.
-
Poetic line And because of that you will have the bigger
-
responsibility. Of training the court properly.
-
In order for you to be able to. Break them down for.
-
Better assimilation. I pray that the Holy Spirit that
-
has inspired my heart we also. Give you a quick.
-
Understanding in the name of Jesus, I have just prayed.
-
In the name of Jesus, now equally I will expect the youth,
-
the young persons. That are in the house.
-
To listen more, more attentively, I'm.
-
Pleased allow what we're going to learn today.
-
To guide how you conduct. Yourself when the season of.
-
Valentine arrive in few weeks to come, are you aware of that?
-
In few weeks to come, the season of.
-
Valentine will arrive, so please allow some of the things that
-
I'll be teaching. Today, maybe for two other.
-
Weeks to guide your condoms. And for the Oasis?
-
Youth, in particular those of. You who have responsibility of
-
coordinating the activities of the youth and clearly that the
-
teenagers church please plan your.
-
Program and conversations around some of the things that I'll be
-
sharing with. You when you are planning for
-
this year. Destiny Earth Seminar It will be
-
very important that you use this material.
-
To. Drive conversation around the
-
issues that I'll be raising in a way that address your peculiar
-
situation within your. Youth Community.
-
But then let me also bring this one in.
-
If you are the. Type that he has messages.
-
Once. And then you just walk away from
-
it. This particular message or
-
sessions is not one of thought. Message is to be.
-
Treated as such. It's a message that you will
-
have to stay long on it until you take in the nutrients.
-
That I need. You will need.
-
Those nutrients for your spiritual depths.
-
And. For your.
-
Emotional maturity. And of course.
-
For healing too. As the case may be for I know
-
that. By way of your interaction,
-
relationship and engaging in. Friendship.
-
Some of you have suffered. Emotional world, but I guarantee
-
you in the Holy Ghost. That there is healing in the
-
house this morning. In the name of Jesus, it's very
-
possible that some of you may be carrying the odds or the injury
-
you sustained from misplaced trust.
-
The topic we are considering is trust management and friendship.
-
So some of. You may be carrying the odds or
-
the. Injury you have sustained from
-
misplacing your trust in a friend if we will be a.
-
Colleague at work if we will be a pastor in church.
-
If we be. The A partner.
-
You are. Trusting the Lord that.
-
You will get married to. And of course, where you follow
-
the trend in our society today. Particularly in the church.
-
Community in Nigeria, the social media.
-
Is currently at worst with. On hard of stories.
-
Even from all. Expected quarters, including
-
from church authors. Many people are presently
-
bearing the wounds. That are very deep, some life
-
threatening from broken. Relationship and so on.
-
And so forth. So today, trust.
-
Is becoming a major victim into this relationship trust is
-
becoming a major 50 in. Today's relationship.
-
It can be very terrible. When you mistake an.
-
Enemy for a friend you. Expend trust.
-
On a relationship with somebody that can betray you or even
-
abuse you. I pray that.
-
God will give you. Wisdom to manage your trust.
-
Because that's a. Lot of implication both on your
-
spirituality. And on your emotional stability?
-
In case you have ever experienced the.
-
Injury caused by betrayal or by any other.
-
Negative issues of. Trust in your relationship as I
-
bring the word. Of God, this moment.
-
The Lord will heal your wounds. In the name of Jesus.
-
I said the Lord. Will heal your wounds.
-
In the name of Jesus, listen to me and listen.
-
Good, I have said this before. Maybe I should put it
-
differently. The first time I said it, I.
-
Said friendship. Is secret what I mean?
-
What I meant when I said is that.
-
Friendship is not cheap friendship.
-
Is something more than casual Friendship is costly.
-
Friendship is what is costly. You don't just go into
-
friendship only to get. And I pray that even where you
-
will get, you will get the right thing.
-
Hallelujah, you will get. The right thing.
-
In the name of Jesus, so you go into friendship.
-
Also to contribute so. When you are into friendship,
-
what transfer in? Friendship is both deeply
-
spiritual and critically. Emotional.
-
I've said two very important things where you are in
-
friendship, what transpire between you and your friend is
-
both deeply spiritual and. Critically emotional, so the.
-
Effect of friendship is not just transactional.
-
OK every time I need urgent to key he.
-
Said urgent to key. I pray that that urgent.
-
To key. OK, will not become an.
-
Exchange for your destiny. In the name.
-
Of Jesus, so the. Effect of.
-
Friendship is not just transactional, it is
-
transgenerational. It is transgenerational and we
-
have studied how. What's the people?
-
Said inherited profited him. Praise the name of the Lord.
-
Praise the name of the Lord. And of course, what's Solomon
-
and King Haram? Inherited profited them, but
-
it's not always so there are people.
-
That inherited bitterness and their life that was supposed to
-
be better. God destroyed.
-
So friendship is not just transactional, it is
-
transgenerational. And.
-
This is the reason I. Pity young persons that think
-
that sex is. All that relationship is all
-
about. Pretty young.
-
People that think sex. Is all that relationship or
-
friendship is all about. For.
-
Solomon, yes, inherited a very. Wonderful and good heritage in
-
his father, but there's a second site to it which I will open
-
your eyes to before we begin to. Deep dig deeper into the issue
-
of trust. Solomon did not just inherit the
-
blessings of relationship. Established by his father,
-
David, you know, by the time we're studying Iran and.
-
Solomon OK, we. Were looking at the positive
-
side of the blessings that Solomon inherited.
-
Because of the relationship. That he had with Habiba, the
-
father of King era. It was a very profitable.
-
One, but may I say to you. Because friendship is not just.
-
Transactional, but transgenerational, that
-
sometimes you inherit both the blessing and the body.
-
You inherit good words, the blessing and the body.
-
So Solomon did not. Just inherit the blessings.
-
Of relationship established by his.
-
Father David equally inherited the.
-
Body that evolved with them. Let's take our bearing from
-
First King chapter 2. We'll read the first 2 verses.
-
We jump to verse 5 and stop on verse 10.
-
First King chapter 2. Now the days of David Dunner
-
that he should die. OK.
-
And you know the point of the death of.
-
A patriarch. Is also the beginning of.
-
In inheriting substance. Give that.
-
Blessing or courses or body? Now the days of David Jonah.
-
That he should die and the chance Solomon is.
-
On saying I go. The way of all the Earth.
-
You thou strong, therefore I'll see you thyself a man.
-
And then between verse 3 and 5. S 3 and.
-
Four he was. Talking about wonderful things,
-
OK. Pleasant inheritances, but from
-
verse 5 that there's a body. You will also inherited the body
-
of the wrong. Relationships that I entered and
-
the battles thereof that I could not finish, you will have.
-
To take the battle of. I mean to hope I.
-
Pray in the name of Jesus, you will not.
-
Inherit the battles of your father's.
-
That's why I said. Relationship friendship is not
-
just. Something casual.
-
It's not just something transactional, it's something
-
trans generational. Moreover, first wife now knows
-
also what you have. The son of Ruchiruai did to me.
-
Wonderful friend, wonderful partner.
-
You want to. Look at it officially.
-
OK. Somebody very close to David
-
you? Want to look at it?
-
From the family level, somebody. Very close to David and.
-
What? It did to the 2.
-
Captains of the Horse of. Israel unto Habner, the son of
-
Nah. Unto Amasar, the son of Jetta.
-
Whom is new? And shed the.
-
Blood of war in peace or the deputy?
-
O darasi dafi di loro. Solomoni O Madafi de Lugodos
-
embassy, I pray in the name of Jesus.
-
You will not inherit the wrong things.
-
From your parents, in the name of Jesus, so.
-
Solomon was not the one that has.
-
Direct relationship with Dua. It was his father, David.
-
But Joab now has created a trouble for.
-
David, who we now remedied Who? Will redeem the.
-
Situation it is Solomon. And that's why I said when it
-
comes to the translation dimension of.
-
Relationship that can be a. Transfer of either blessing or
-
body or boot. So rather than for Solomon to
-
start on the ground. OK, the.
-
First assignment he has to do was how?
-
Will he do a way? And eliminate the wrong
-
association around the truth. Womb is new and shed the blood.
-
Of war in peace, and put the blood of war upon.
-
His ghetto that it was about his loin.
-
And in his shoe that were on his.
-
Feet were seized do. Therefore, according to thy
-
wisdom, and let not his white head go down to the.
-
Grave in peace now if God did not give.
-
Solomon, the wisdom on how? To go about it by what the
-
public knew. About about Joab.
-
Relationship to David are you with me and.
-
Solomon does. Come up on the troll.
-
And started to walk against Doha.
-
The society we blame Solomon. Do you agree?
-
Because they were never part of this conversation when his
-
father was given the instruction that this man that looked like a
-
good man. OK, it's a bad element in the
-
system. AM I talking to somebody?
-
So he inherited, not. Only the blessings of
-
relationship. That his father engaged in.
-
He also inherited words. The body, so the.
-
Point I am pushing very hard is that relationship friendship is
-
not just transactional, it is also what transgenerational do.
-
Therefore, account of that wisdom and let Lord is why I had
-
go down. To the grave in peace.
-
Imagine Solomon did not apply wisdom, he just had that message
-
and then the second. Day he make a pronounce a.
-
Pronouncement he made a decrease.
-
Go and execute Joab. The old city will rise in opera
-
against Solomon. Am I talking to somebody?
-
If you know the. Kind of position.
-
Joab occupied in the Kingdom and the many battles in fourth.
-
And the many death secret he helps King David to keep.
-
When David killed Wire, the husband of Basheba, who has.
-
Executed it. Who kept the secrets?
-
Joab verse 7 was still kindness of the of Basila the Galadite
-
and. Let them be of.
-
Those that eat at that. Table.
-
For so they came to me. When I flared because of.
-
Absalom thy brother. So it's transgenerational.
-
You inherit. The blessing you also inherit.
-
Words the body for verse seven. It was the blessing, and behold
-
now as. With this see me the.
-
Son of Gira a Benjamin. Of boring.
-
Which cost me with a grievous course in the day.
-
When I went to Mahinhal. But he came.
-
Down to meet me at the Jordan and I swear to him by the law
-
saying I will not. Put it to death with the sword.
-
From here, David is proving to be a very delicate father.
-
Very what delicate father? You understand better as I push
-
the teaching further, setting up his son.
-
To inherit his enemy. Yes, the man offended him.
-
The man came and. Pleaded and he.
-
Pretended that it is all over but he's about to die and he say
-
I am transferring. The man to you, go and deal with
-
him. So if you are not a wise son.
-
OK. You will not enjoy your whole
-
life. You'll be dealing with the.
-
Problem created by your parent. Problem of relationship created
-
by your parent. Now, therefore.
-
Hold him more, not ruthless. For thou and a wise man, and
-
knowest what thou want us to. Do unto him but his.
-
Warhead bring down down. To the grave with blood.
-
Yet the mission that Solomon had.
-
To fulfil. Is the mission that was
-
accomplished with a hand that is not guilty of?
-
Blood. David was to build the temple,
-
but God said you will not build the temple.
-
Because your hand is. Full of words, blood and was not
-
even careful that now this assignment to build the temple
-
has been transferred to. Solo mode, he's also trying to
-
say. Put.
-
Blood in your hand. If not for grace and wisdom,
-
will Solomon be able to build the?
-
Temple, now that his father is. Also making him to begin.
-
To. Shed blood.
-
Set him up to to to shed blood. You see, this life is deeper
-
than we. Take it AM.
-
I talking to somebody. So Davis left with his father.
-
Own Barcelona I was. Buried.
-
In the city of Davie. So from here.
-
We can deduce that the chief. Problem of some people is.
-
Not from the friend they. Made, but from the friends they
-
inherited all these. People that his father was
-
handing. Over to him to deal.
-
With OK. On the surface, they were
-
friends of his father. Are you with me?
-
But at the 2nd loop, by virtue of certain things that happen.
-
In the course of their. Relationship.
-
They were actually enemies. To David and David.
-
Did not have the boldness to confront them and deal with
-
them. So, Solomon.
-
Was likable. He was just starting his
-
Kingdom. Everyone respected.
-
Him. Are you with me?
-
But now his father is saying inherit my enemy.
-
So if you are not wise. To take charge of your own
-
destiny, you will quality in needless enemies.
-
That will require you well. To hold on to.
-
Past grievances and stereotypes. So the enemy.
-
Of my father must be my enemy, the enemy.
-
Of my mother must be my enemy, the enemy.
-
Of my uncle must be my enemy. You inherit needless enemy.
-
That will. Feel obligated to take side.
-
Or seek revenge. So you feel obligated to either
-
take. Side or seek revenge.
-
Revenge. For what?
-
Revenge for offences? That were not committed against
-
you and that's the way many of you are living your life.
-
The trouble you bring upon yourself, OK, We're not your own
-
trouble. Like just inheriting or that.
-
People's enemy, So you. Equally inherit needless enemy.
-
That will require you to. Let or allow historical
-
conflicts dictate present relationship.
-
All this. Trouble that David was putting.
-
Solomon. Into were historical conflicts
-
historical conflicts how? So so you how it?
-
Happen even among communities. Hello community to.
-
Community historical conflict that does.
-
Not have anything. To do with you new generation I.
-
Will take it upon yourself. So, historical conflicts.
-
With dictates of pressure relationship.
-
They are not wise. You will narrate needless
-
enemies that will require you to allow the weight of history and
-
emotions that are passed down to influence present dynamics.
-
Negatively, which ought not to be.
-
And of course. In your own.
-
Innocence. As a matter of fact, there are
-
people. Who hate you simply because you?
-
Fail to inherit their enemies you know there are uncles that
-
we. Hate you simply because.
-
You did not inherit. This enemy.
-
There are Royals, fathers who we have to simply because we don't
-
inherit their enemy. Am I talking to somebody when
-
they are allowed to? Say no more, Shakini.
-
When I say this, I am. Speaking from the point of.
-
Personal experience because I have observed it, I have
-
experienced it. There are people who we
-
personally. Call me, I said of.
-
Course, we love you. You're a wonderful brother.
-
We love your messages. You are a man of integrity.
-
We will appreciate your leadership and capacity.
-
But this your political friends? And I asked them.
-
What is your business with my? Political friend, how have they
-
offended you? Because of what?
-
People are saying about them we don't expect you to gravitate
-
towards them and they were not the one.
-
Who called me Are you? With me, they don't understand
-
my own mandates. Am I?
-
Talking to somebody. And if I were not wise, I was
-
stupidly inherit their so-called and.
-
So there are many quarters where enemies are available for
-
inheritance. There are many quarters where
-
enemies are available for inheritance.
-
Let me point to some of them in the family setting, particularly
-
in the polygamous room. Press the.
-
Name of the Lord God. Has lifted your step brother and
-
is in a. Position to help you.
-
But because your mother didn't love your stepbrother.
-
OK. Even when your stepbrother.
-
Is innocent. You also inherit.
-
Him as your enemy from your mother rather than be a
-
peacemaker and set to the issue now that you are a child of God
-
even though you come from a polygamous room.
-
Seek for peace. Don't have to be problem.
-
You will need wisdom to do it. May the Lord grant you wisdom
-
you will need discernment to. Do it.
-
With regard to discernment in the name of Jesus.
-
If you will allow those. People to walk or you don't sit
-
down one day why am I actually fighting on why am I fighting
-
sister so you've got this problem should not be there all
-
because on both sides you have. Decided to inherit your.
-
Mothers or fathers? Am I talking to somebody and
-
there are fathers like Baby? OK, we will not deal.
-
With their. Problem.
-
They will transfer them. To you the way, David.
-
Was transferring those things to Solomon Neighborhood is another
-
quarters where enemies are available for inheritance.
-
In the neighborhood. You just discover that in the
-
neighborhood, the person you. Gravitate to us does not.
-
Like the other neighbor and that other neighbor has not done
-
anything wrong to you, but this other person draw you.
-
Close. So that you can join.
-
Hand. To fight the other person you do
-
have even the place of work. Then community to community
-
press the name of the law, the patriarchs of the community that
-
had issues among them, they are long dead and long gone.
-
OK, and for no reason. OK, you just vow.
-
I cannot marry from that town. OK.
-
Why can't you marry from that town?
-
That community, That our community.
-
Were never friends. In the 21st century.
-
He's got talking to somebody. Ditto for tribe and then
-
political enemies. Hello, you are not a politician.
-
Are you with me? But you hate.
-
Article more than OB OK. Who was once a running mate of
-
article who may probably work. Again with article in the
-
future. Am I talking to somebody?
-
Just wake up and. Face your own.
-
Destiny so I can go on and on and on sighting platforms where
-
enemies are Boku for inheritance and only those who are not wise,
-
OK, we'll be inheriting other people's enemy.
-
So friendship where you understand.
-
Stand it. For the background of maturity
-
and mental sanity, it is more about personal trust.
-
Mutual good. Than about primordial.
-
Sentiments. Are you with me?
-
So there's a need. For you to reorientate.
-
Yourself about friendship, that friendship.
-
Should not be about primordial. Sentiments.
-
Don't pick a friend. Based on primordial sentiment
-
and don't make somebody. Your enemy based.
-
On primordial sentiment, friendship, if you understand it
-
properly from the background of maturity and mental sanity, it
-
is more about personal trust. Can I trust this person and if I
-
gravitate towards this person? Can there be mutual good?
-
So from the background of maturity and mental sanity,
-
friendship is more about personal trust, mutual good and
-
has nothing to do or should have nothing to do with the model
-
settlements. Let's consider a few phases of
-
the scripture that deals with issue of.
-
Friendship and. Why trusts should drive
-
friendship Proverb 1824 A man that had friends must see
-
himself friendly, and there is a friend that sticketh closer than
-
a brother. If the Lord will help you.
-
And you will choose where. You will discover that you will
-
not just have fear whether people around you that will only
-
be there. To help you lick the finger.
-
Of oil, let me put it Italian, like that, Waste said among my.
-
People will always put. The Araya Vanilla Vanilla tea.
-
Again, OK. That's when there is.
-
Only on your finger to. Lick There are people around.
-
You to come and lick. It but if it is a blood they run
-
away from you. Praise the name of the Lord now.
-
So if you will. Go into friendship and
-
relationship. Well guided and your friendship
-
is not driven by primordial sentiments such as I have
-
highlighted. You will discover that.
-
You will be in a. Position to be a good.
-
Friend, you can attract good people.
-
More often than not, your. Friend is a reflection of who
-
you are you will always attract your time.
-
Am I talking to somebody so a man that had friend must see
-
himself friendly and as a friend that stick it closer than a
-
brother. Proverb 27 five and six open
-
review is better than secret love so which means where your
-
friend is to see based on trust and not on primordial sentiment,
-
you will discover that the. Boldness, even your
-
relationship. Not sacrificing.
-
A true friend. OK, we'll.
-
Be able. To stand up to you.
-
And say my friend, on this matter we will not agree because
-
you are wrong. Are you with me SO.
-
Open rebuke is better than secret love.
-
I will be able to. Trust your friend, OK even.
-
When by error by wrong. Judgments.
-
It did something. To you, that is not pleasing.
-
OK, you will take it as. Open a book.
-
Which is better than what? Secrets love because some people
-
will claim. To love you but they.
-
Will not be able to stand up and be open to defend you.
-
Are you with me? A good.
-
Friend OK will be able. To stand up.
-
Against you where? You are wrong in the public.
-
And then? It will also be able.
-
To stand up to support. You where you are to be
-
rubbished? Am I talking to somebody?
-
You will be balanced. Hopeful rebuke is better than
-
secret law. Verse 6.
-
Proverbs 27. Faithful are the wounds.
-
Of a friend now. Before you will be able.
-
To. Operate friendship at that
-
level. Trust must exist.
-
What do I say must exist trust, faithful are the wounds of a.
-
Friend, but the kisses. Of our enemy are deceitful, I
-
often. Leave you to pray.
-
I don't know whether you take. That prayer seriously, that in
-
your relationship you will not mistake deception.
-
For reception that day when Judas.
-
Came. OK.
-
I. Didn't come with a hot.
-
Slap. On the cheek of Jesus, but it
-
came with a. Gentle kiss.
-
That was a deception, and there are many.
-
People like that, OK, And if you are not wise, you will mistake
-
deception for? What reception 1717 of Proverbs?
-
A friend love it at all time, and a brother is born for
-
adversity. A friend loves at all time.
-
When things are going well with you is there.
-
When it is the other way around, is what is there.
-
So what is it that can make you? Have such kind of friendship
-
because among all that levels of relationship, friendship is.
-
Top notch, hello. Friendship is what is top notch.
-
There are deep things that your friend will know.
-
About you that your. Friend may not be aware of.
-
Am I talking to somebody? Except you make your wife your
-
friend. There are deep things.
-
A friend. Outside will know about you that
-
your wife may. Not know Detroit or husband am I
-
talking to somebody and that's why.
-
Even my relationship, if it is not addressed to the level of
-
friendship, it's just. My husband and my wife.
-
It has limitation. Our Lord Jesus Christ when he
-
was relating. With his disciple it was.
-
A master disciple relationship. But it got.
-
To a point, Say at this point I no longer call you my disciple,
-
I call you my friends. You rested to level.
-
What friendship? So what makes friendship so
-
exceptional among? Other levels.
-
Of. Interpersonal relationship is
-
trust. Trust must initiate friendship.
-
Don't gamble with your destiny. Don't call somebody your friends
-
that you cannot trust. Any claim to friendship without
-
trust is for school. Any claim to friendship without.
-
Trust is what's for school. It is self delusional.
-
To claim to be in. Friendship with a person that.
-
Cannot trust you. You are deceiving yourself.
-
If you take for a friend, somebody.
-
That cannot trust you and then on your part too, it is
-
fraudulent to. Claim or pretend to be a.
-
Friend in the recess of the war to.
-
A person you do not trust. Oh, my covenant friend.
-
And acetone is by yeah. Yeah.
-
Am I talking to somebody? It's fraudulent on your part.
-
That you cannot trust somebody. And you say that person.
-
Is your friend and of. Course it is delusional.
-
If you take for a friend. Somebody that you know very
-
clearly that this person don't trust me, of course I said there
-
are other levels of relationship it's.
-
OK, to be a partner. It's OK to be a recruiters to
-
anyone but to. Call the relationship pressive
-
trust must be staked. Hello to call somebody a friend.
-
Trust must be invested, and from both sides.
-
It's not just I. Trust you don't trust me it.
-
Must be about I trust you and you do what?
-
You trust. Me so essentially trust.
-
Is the soul of friendship trust? Is what the soul of friendship?
-
The focus is trust management. That's what we're looking at
-
today. But somebody would say.
-
If you are saying trust. In the soul of friendship.
-
How about love so we are trust in the soul of.
-
Friendship, love is. Its backbone.
-
Love is what? The backbone of friendship, but
-
before you talk. About love, you must first talk
-
about trust. It is trust that gives life to
-
friendship. What gives life to friendship?
-
Trust and that is why friendship is expensive, emotionally
-
expensive because if you have. Gone all through.
-
The road to the point of no return, I discovered.
-
That trust is not there. You'll be devastated.
-
Am I talking to somebody so trust give life to friendship
-
where there is no. Trust friendship does.
-
Not. Exist.
-
You will be calling it friendship, OK, but it's not.
-
Friendship where there is no trust, Friendship does not
-
exist. For love, love only coordinates.
-
And sustain what trust commenced.
-
Hello. Trust, we commence it.
-
Trust with. Triguide are you with me?
-
You will not bring in love to. Coordinate and to sustain it.
-
So in the contest of friendship, I carry.
-
God beg you, brothers and sisters, fathers and mothers,
-
children and mentees, I carry. God beg you in the.
-
Contest of friendship you must trust.
-
Before you love and nowadays. OK, when you are thinking about
-
who to marry, OK, jokingly we say you want to do sushi before
-
you do sushi. Are you with me?
-
Before you do, sister, will you do?
-
Before you say brother. I would do.
-
Trust. Before you love.
-
And that's why I have. Pleaded with you that.
-
In the course of the programs you are going to be having
-
during the Valentine's season, let's what I am teaching you
-
now, from the center of your discussion, go and beat it.
-
Go and talk. About it, but you will.
-
Discover that at the end of the day, what I'm saying is a
-
Destiny protective mask is what? A Destiny protective mask.
-
In the context of friendship, you must trust before you what?
-
You love if you put. Love.
-
Ahead of the convincing. And a reasonable ground for.
-
Trust emotions will take over. That's where it's delicate.
-
To put love ahead of. Trust once you allow love.
-
To take the lead before you have.
-
A convincing and. Reasonable ground for trolls.
-
Emotions will take over there. You are going to.
-
Become dull. To signals of betrayal.
-
That's why they say love is blind.
-
Hello. That's why they say what love.
-
Is blind. It means that love had that
-
capacity. To make you dull.
-
To signals of betrayal. Even when the person is
-
intentionally doing. You evil, you love.
-
Will make you generate justification for it.
-
Am I talking to somebody? So.
-
And the reason you must hear this advice is because
-
friendship with past emotion. Friendship with Demand your
-
emotion Friendship with Tap from your emotion Friendship with.
-
Drain your emotion I. Mentioned to you in the course
-
of previous studies that emotion.
-
Is part of the capital or the major capital you pay to sustain
-
friendship? But I beg you.
-
Emotion must not be the. First Capital you will invest.
-
First invest intellect before you invest emotion.
-
Years back I taught you here that a man that will.
-
Give a room in your. Heart must pass through the.
-
Corridor of your mind. Am I talking to somebody?
-
A man? A woman.
-
That will give a room in your. Heart, because your heart is the
-
seat of emotion once it gets to your heart.
-
Recently suspended. Are you with me?
-
So therefore a man. That will occupy a permanent
-
room. A woman.
-
That will occupy a permanent room in your heart as a friend
-
must first pass through. The corridor of your.
-
Mind there? You'll be able to interview
-
there. You'll be able.
-
To check, there you'll be. Able to assess sincerity of
-
purpose, so friendship with tax emotion.
-
Don't allow emotion to be the. First, capital you interest, you
-
invest into friendship. Why?
-
Because trust is so expensive that.
-
It must not be. Invested outside deep
-
intellectual considerations. Don't invest trust outside deep
-
intellectual consideration. You must come the course.
-
You must do what? Did you hear what I said last?
-
You must do what you can the 'cause that's what you do when
-
you are taking that person through the corridor of your
-
mind before you open the door of your heart.
-
So you must count the 'cause. You must be convinced.
-
That the long term. Benefits outweigh the emotional.
-
And other. Demand you will cure.
-
In the cause of friendship goods.
-
And that is why I advocate very strongly.
-
I recommend very strongly. I advise very strongly.
-
Maybe I command you or commend you that friendship must not be
-
rushed. Friendship must not be what?
-
Rushed. It will be allowed to evolve,
-
that's why I classify. Friendship to you.
-
As both organic and mechanic, mechanic and I recommend to you
-
the organic type of friendship. Because the organic one will.
-
Evolve. It will take time, it will pass
-
through natural processes. It cannot be manipulated, it
-
cannot be organized. So let's.
-
Your friendship be more. Organic than mechanical don't
-
force. It with.
-
Oaths and emotional outbursts. Many of you are forcing.
-
It if truly. You are my friend.
-
If you truly, you will. Marry me.
-
Let's let's let's. Enter Covenant.
-
That's mechanical. It's not organic.
-
Am I talking to somebody and they can come with them?
-
Monique Calle, you are setting yourself up for betrayal.
-
You are forcing it. You are harassing it.
-
There are some of you you are using.
-
Your your your. Feminine nature, OK of being
-
able to easily breakdown in the motion, OK to force it and then
-
reminds not interested. But the way you always.
-
Cry on him. Cry on.
-
Him, you'll be feeling guilty. And if I leave, it's not going
-
to be. Good and.
-
Then the person is going on, not on that, not on that empathy,
-
but it's going on that same party.
-
I think I should. Repeat by saying friendship.
-
Must not be rushed. It will be allowed to evolve.
-
Let's be more organic than mechanical.
-
Don't force it with oats. And emotional abuse.
-
And of course, why do? You need to take oats as a child
-
of God. If you must wear and go through
-
aquatic ritual to sustain friendship, then there's.
-
No soul. Born.
-
Born out of trust in it, if there is trust.
-
Are you with me? You will not have to.
-
Go through that process of occultic ritual to sustain the
-
friendship. And of course.
-
Such is not. Love if you do it.
-
Rather, I call it self-inflicted bondage.
-
Self-inflicted words. Bondage.
-
Because we have to go. On OK even when all the signals
-
are there that you should not continue.
-
But because the moment you came together, you do blood boots.
-
What is people teach us is let your years.
-
Be yes, your no is no. Anything outside that is saying
-
that is dividing. Am I talking to somebody?
-
We are looking at the topic trust management in friendship
-
and these are the deep things. Of relationship beyond Who do I
-
marry? I don't want anybody tomorrow to
-
hear and say even in Oasis they don't teach us a marriage
-
seminar. What marriage seminar can be
-
more than this? If you are put your heart to
-
what we are teaching you. Am I talking to somebody?
-
So whether private blood oath? Before any shrine or anything
-
like that, they are on unhurriedly on Christian.
-
Let your years be. Yes.
-
Anything otherwise is a sin. I feel tempted to stop, but it's
-
important. So that we have the.
-
Correct. Flu.
-
But I will come back. Next week to also let you know
-
this, when I say don't rush it, I must say friendship cannot be
-
spontaneous. Hello, I'm not saying friendship
-
cannot be. Spontaneous.
-
I'm not saying it. Cannot be loved.
-
At first sight. It can be but its.
-
Growth must not be sporadic. Love can be spontaneous.
-
But the growth of it. Must not be sporadic.
-
That's why I said don't trust it so when it occurs.
-
To you when it comes. To your mind OK when you see
-
that? Brother.
-
When you see that person. And your heart is warm.
-
Towards that person, I'm not. Saying cut it off or perish the
-
thoughts. Allow the thoughts.
-
Are you with me? But don't let the growth be
-
sporadic. Let's.
-
Whatever. Click.
-
At first sight have time to go allow.
-
For you to truly flourish. Let there be some intentional
-
effort demonstrated, and let there be consistency.
-
So friendship can be spontaneous.
-
But its. Group must not be sporadic, it
-
can just click. At four sides.
-
But for you to truly. Flourish.
-
There needs to be some. Intentional efforts and
-
consistency, so the growth of love and.
-
Friendship must not be like random and all over the place.
-
Sarcophagic dripping stones where somebody is just take
-
managing it. OK, the person is all around
-
you. When the when the friends are
-
there. But the same person.
-
Can slap you in the secrets. When I know AM.
-
I talking to somebody. So when we are talking about
-
trust, we are not saying trust is not abstracts.
-
We are not. Saying trust is something that
-
you will see and. Say it is white.
-
Gray or yellow in colour? So trust may not be totally
-
proofable empirically, but let it stand on a rational
-
reasonable. Ground I live for Julie.
-
Hello. But when it is there, you know
-
that it is there if you don't suspend your.
-
Brain if you don't suspend. Your mind?
-
Am I talking to somebody? Deception is not too difficult
-
to discover. The moment you don't put.
-
Love ahead of trust am I talking to?
-
Somebody it will be very easy for you to.
-
Detect deception when you. Put love ahead of trust.
-
It. Will not allow for rational.
-
Evidence, but when it is. Trust it will be.
-
Based on convincing grounds that can serve as regulator.
-
For over boiling love. Love can be over boiling.
-
Are you with me? But.
-
When trust is there, it is trust and the elements of trust, the
-
casualties of trust. OK.
-
The things that trust does will serve as regulator for over
-
boiling love so that the moment. You say there is love there,
-
particularly romantic love. And at the.
-
End of the day, there is trust deficiency.
-
Run for your dear life. If your boiling love will not.
-
Lead to emotional. Bonds, trust must be established
-
before love is suspended. The same thing I said before is
-
what I'm saying. Again in a different way as we
-
close. That if.
-
You're boiling, love will not. Lead to emotional bonds.
-
Trust must be established before love is suspended.
-
Trust is the core, the essence of friendship, while love, like
-
I said earlier, is the backbone. Love is the backbone, providing
-
structure and support trust. Give friendship its depths.
-
Hello friendship. Has depths where there is trust.
-
If there is no trust and only love.
-
Is shallow trust. Give friendship in death and
-
love. Give.
-
It stability and strength. I am not saying.
-
Don't love, are you with me so. What I allow trust?
-
To. Give your friendship depths
-
then. Long without setting.
-
To give it stability. And strength.
-
And of course, it is not one without the other.
-
That is the balance. It is not one the other.
-
Sometimes it's a solution of the egg and the chicken.
-
I want to see which one comes first.
-
You see the egg or the chicken intentionally.
-
OK, allow trust. To take the lead, God.
-
Bless you, I say. God bless you in Jesus name.
-
It's a. Flow.
-
That I will I. Will not want to.
-
To break but I have to so it is in the same light we are going
-
to. Continue next week.
-
I said about older people, we are doing damage control about
-
younger people. You have opportunity to set it
-
right. Praise the name of the Lord.
-

-
