Your Faith Fell Short Part 1

Praise the Lord. Everybody, praise the Lord.

This is eternal fire ministry, is a holy spirit ministry

and extinguished. You have turned into the rights channel.

Glad about it. We are still on our ain't a vacation.

We're just doing ministry. We got some things planned for

this weekend, and I know some people are gonna be blessed. Yes,

I've reached ministry right at home. I believe we can

bring them to the backshin. That's why we got a

house ministry. We can bring them in the shed.

Yes, we can get them saved. And I'm not talking

about what's your door.

I'm talking about saved and set apart because something.

You don't realize what that is.

Jesus. I want to welcome you this evening, Friday evening. Yes, well,

I thought you have service on Sunday. I have it

when God says it, that's right. Yeah, we have our schedule.

I told you after October nineteenth, we'll go back to

our regular schedule program, whether we be here or tim

Buck two. We know that October nineteenth.

If God should say something else, because he's in charge here,

I'm not in charge.

I know people get mad.

Well, I wish you had a consistent I do have

a consistent.

Schedule with his spirit. Yep, yes, that's it. If you'd

like to get in contact with me, my name is

Jonathan Hardwick. Telephone number eight six zero five zero zero

eight three seven. You can email us at Eternal Fire

Ministries at gmail dot com. Since I've done the broadcast,

I have not gotten either, except for one comment on YouTube.

I encourage you to go on YouTube comment. I encourage

you to go on Facebook comment. Thank you, Jesus. I

mean I'll take criticisms too.

I can be critical. I can take correction. Maybe I

shouldn't have talked about your mother, or maybe I should have.

You guys can sit. We're on our little podcast studio.

We made some things possible. This is a free ministry.

What do you mean by free? I don't pay anything

for it. No, Jesus, this is not a church. This

is a ministry. We already are the church. I'll say

it again so I know the people in the back

didn't hear me. We already are the church. I'm not

looking for a building. I already am. I know that's

hard for them to believe. Yes, I'm gonna say this

very gracefully because I know we have people listening internationally

and locally and in the United States. We know that

there are a lot of current events that are happening.

But I want you to be very focused, not on

the people, but on the spirits that are behind the people.

I'm not gonna say any names because I know.

People are listening, but you know what I'm talking about now.

The world can be silenced, but God is not going

to be silent. I said, God's not going to be silent.

As a matter of fact, God was speaking to me yesterday.

He said, they may be able to silence them in

the world, but my miracles and healings will not be silent.

Until I said until or I'll put it.

In this context. Miracles and healings are going to happen

within his remnant. But God still desires a people who

will repent.

I heard a lot of gibberish, but I heard no repentance.

J O.

Body is accountable for the things they say. Yes, people

got silenced, broadcasts got taken away, but I tell you

something that will never get taken away, and that is

the bloodstained banner of Jesus Christ.

You can burn all the Bibles. I don't care if

they do that. The word of.

God is on the inside of you, and it manifests

through you. I'm gonna tell you some things that are

going to happen when we come back.

But see, I'm not afraid of anything. I fear the Lord.

Because the Bible says, as long as I am with

the Lord, yes God.

If my footsteps are.

With the Lord, yes God, Yes fine. Didn't the Bible

say you give you perfect peace when your mind is

stayed upon him. I'm not worried about what Donald Trump does.

I'm not worried about what the politics do Jesus. Jesus

did not come here to preach politics.

Read it in the Bible.

There is nowhere in the Bible where Jesus preached about politics.

As a matter of fact, he made it perfectly clear,

render onto Caesar what is Caesar's and you render onto

God what is God. You can't even tell the difference

between the two because you mingled each other together. There

is no place in scripts here where Jesus had an

office in the government. Nowhere. Oh, I know you're mad

with me. Well, the Lord's presence is all over the

capital of the United States Congress, and the Lord's the

Lord's presence ain't up in there. If the Lord's presence

was truly in the White House, I'm gonna help you something.

If it truly was there, there would.

Be accountability, there would be moralism, but there would be

most importantly conviction and repentance.

Right, what we're learning is is.

That the church is just as bad that's the government,

because you're doing two systems of mind control. You don't

want this, see I am talking about this, But some

of you have gotten caught up in the hype and

have missed the foundation.

Of why we are here. To go all ye into

the world.

Matthew nineteen twenty nine, nineteen, go all ye into the world,

baptizing them in the name of the Father and the

Son and the Holy Go you had forgot him what

our assignment is. I'm not getting caught up in democrat

or Republicans, because when you start taking on a sigh,

you have to uphold that side. That's right.

When Jesus came, he brought.

More questions because he would answer a question in a question.

Jesus said, not come in the.

Preper Now I know how they are, Well, we have

to make a Jesus culture. Well that Jesus culture was

his kingdom right, and he said it was not of

this world. Oh, I know y'all don't like the truth.

He said, his kingdom Come, Thy will be done on

earth as it is in heaven. But that will has

to start with you submitting yourself a living sacrifice, holy

and pleasing on to him, which is a reasonable service.

Jesus is not a politician.

He's spirit. He said that God is a spirit, and

those that worship God worship him. In Christian nationalism, no,

it said, worship him in spirit. But spirit has a nature. Jesus, yes, sir,

Spirit has a nature.

I don't care what you hear, what people say, Hm.

We are fighting a spiritual battle before we wrestle, not

against flesh and blood.

We are not wrestling against culture.

We are not wrestling against black and white. Now, the

devil comes only to steal, kill and destroy.

But Jesus said, I come that you might have life,

and have it more abundantly.

He also said in his word that a kingdom is

divided against itself, and the enemy is trying to divide

this country. The enemy is trying to divide the people

of God to choose sides. But the Bible says, choose

you this day who you will serve. I'm not choosing

to serve an institution. I'm not choosing to serve man.

I'm not choosing to serve a culture. Well you're African American.

No, I'm a spirit.

God said he knows no Jew, no gentile, no bond

or free, but his Christ in awe and through all.

Honey, let me tell you something.

Jesus is the color spectrum and his spirit first before

he puts a little color on it. We need to

stop looking at the face of what's going on and

start getting on our hands.

And knees and start praying for this nation.

Where God says we are to pray for those we're

gonna have rulership.

I don't care if he's a devil from hell.

You got to pray that devil out because we're dealing

with spiritual.

Praise at work.

Right.

That's right, and that's.

All I'm gonna say on that matter. But when we

get back, we're going, honey, I'm not scared about it.

Jesu and God wants to use an instrument he trumps,

Oh did you get it? He trumps in something else.

The church has an opportunity to repent. Every time that

the people of God Israel had an opportunity to repent

before the Lord before he sent in an adversary to

remind them of the God that they served the Kalidian

the time of Jeremiah. He said, I would send in

Nevy Connis.

Tools.

Amen, like my sister said, they're tools to bring correction.

Don't get caught up with the faces. Don't get caught

up in death. We said before this, in the beginning

of the year, God said there was a spirit of

death that was gonna hang over this nation. And I

hate to tell you it's gonna get worse. Because when

God wants to faith, bring his peace, go back to

their knees, he will use tools to force you on

your knees.

He will bring.

God will bring, Yes, he will. He will to make

you get back before your face. See, people think God

is so casual. You think God is casually religious. It

is very simple. When something is out of line, when

something is out of balance in his spirit, He's got

to bring correction to bring it back in line. M hm.

But I didn't come here to talk about that necessarily.

Tonight.

I came to talk about something else. If I can

grab my glasses, maybe I'll be able to see.

Tonight, I'm gonna do.

The ac is on. Yes, it's hot in here. Oh

we're doing some snap crackle and hop well you you're

mad because I talking about your mother. It is what

it is. I will say this, though, you will not

find this voice in the church, as I said, unless

God sends me there. We're staying in this little room

because little as much with God, you wanna build these big,

mega churches and have the people pay for the overhead.

And the Lord told me to start a cafe. And

the Lord told me to start our makeature. And the

Lord told me, but you know it's funny. Jesus didn't

have any of that. He had twelve dis cycles. He

spoke in the desert. Yes, oh that's too uncomfortable for you. Yeah,

he hung out with the prostitutes. He didn't become like him,

I know, like some of you. He hung out with them,

He ministered to them. He fed the people fish all

honey after he came from fishing. But it's not glamorous

work for you. You want a.

Big steeple, big cross, big old choir.

And I said this before. When you're doing, Minister, you

don't need all that, you really don't.

I don't know what God lied to you.

All I need is my two feet and we walked,

he said, because the harvest is plentiful, the laborers are few. Tonight,

I'm gonna talk about something that we all deal with.

I'm gonna talk about your faith.

The title of the message is your faith fell short?

And I'm gonna talk about the process of believing through

our situation. How many of us, when it's time to

execute our faith to go to the next love when God,

we fall short. I'm gonna give several examples of that,

and why it's very difficult for some to walk the

full measure of faith. What is the solution.

That prevents us from falling short in our faith? I

want us to go to Romans chapter twelve.

Romans Chapter twelve, Verse one. I'm gonna read from the

King James version, New King James version. Oh it won't

let me oh old on, I guess it won't let

me read from there. I put my stuff on airplane

mode because we have too many distractions. People wanna call me.

Say that.

I need you to run to the grocery store. I

need this from you. I need that from you. Can

you pick up some Uncle Ben's rice? Now you know

they removed Uncle Ben from the box? Oh yeah, and Hhamima,

I guess she ain't shammah. Yeah. See, I can be

myself here. You're gonna get just what you get. Listen.

If you think you're coming from religion here, uh, you're

in the wrong place. I don't do daily wearing here.

I don't do tearrying services here. Once she gets saved

or saved and the Holy ghost will follow. Yeah, we're

not waiting for him to come. He already came. There

we go. Why don't you see all the bad stuff happening? Well,

why does God have to be acquitted with everything that's bad?

Man does that to himself? God doesn't have to do anything.

Oh I better. I better go on cause I know

there are two Pharisees. Listen, I'm gonna do a lot

of teaching, So relax, cause I can get pretty brutal.

But see, I'm preaching to myself. It starts with me first.

And as I was studying this, I said, my God,

I need this because some of the things I've gone

through for the past couple of weeks. It's almost I

wanted to take a knife and kill myself. Oh no, no,

none of you.

Have ever had gotten that place when your flesh had enough.

You've had enough for your flesh complaining looking at the circumstances,

saying when this is this ever gonna change?

See I had that conversation with him last night.

See, I'm gonna be real with my father.

See, you can't be real with yours because you're with

a f fake partner. I'm sorry. I don't let me. God,

I better stop this. That's why we have so many followers.

Like I said, I ain't looking for none, I'm looking

for listeners. Romans, Chapter twelve, Verse one. I beseech you therefore, brethren.

Now y'all know I got all these notes. You mind

if I flow in the holy dose?

Please please do some.

See they gave me permission, so I don't need your permission.

I was gonna do it anyway, whether they told me

or not.

What kind of.

Preacher are you? One that you need to listen to,

one that's not dainty by religion, not in the system.

I beseech you there for, brethren, by the mercies of God,

that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, Holy I

know that's foreign in this age.

Holy acceptable onto God.

Which is your not God's your reasonable service Verse two.

And be not conformed to this world, but be transformed

by the renewing of your mind daily, which I know

some of you in this room don't do. Uh hole me.

You're behind the shade. I I had graces behind here.

I know some of you on podcasts don't know what

renewing your mind is.

Mmm. We'll talk about that because that has to do

with your faith that ye may prove. Oh there's that word.

What is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

I'm trying to be the safe because you know people

they like to sleep. M I'm being quiet as I can.

MM.

But uh, I'm gonna try, gonna try this place out.

I know we cracked the walls. Listen. If you're looking

for marble floors and.

You hear it, we ain't got it.

We ain't got no marble floors. I ain't looking for

none of that. Jesus God is looking for people who

are righteous and holy. That's why he said when I

raised up this ministry, it's something that's gonna preserve. It's

gonna be something separate. It's gonna be something priceless, because

while everybody is casually looking for the big thing, I'm

looking for the small thing in the big thing. See

you think you need something big, honey, let me tell

you something broad as the path that leads you to destruction.

And many's gonna find it. But he said, narrow and

straight is the way.

Yes.

And I know some of you are struggling.

Right now in your faith. You're struggling with what direction

should I go in. I know that they cut me

from my job. I know that my job is being let.

Go of, and I know that sometimes it seems a

little bit foggy, and I don't know what place I'm

going to go to. But I tell you one thing.

You are not alone.

You have three people in this.

Room that are traveling around the sand that you're going

through right now. And if you don't believe that God

can do exceeding abund above all that you can ask,

or think you're in the wrong place. God sets us

up in our faith walk. You will never know how

good God is if you don't go through some things

that are hard. God. I had people, if they were

in the ministry, said they will be with me and

support me. Until the faith walk came. Well, when are

you gonna get all the benefits? I've already got them. Listen,

you could have negative five hundred in your account and

still be blessed. Y's right. You could be living in

a crack pot hotel and you call it a place,

but you're still blessed. Yes, you know why you're blessed.

When you woke up in the morning, you could see

the sun coming. When you woke up in the morning,

you could hear the sound of the birds. Widow, I

was able to stand the soundation of the Lord this

morning with feet.

I was able to breathe the breath of life. Oh,

y'all don't want.

I give you praise Lord, Thank you, hallelujah.

Verse three, For I say, through the grace given on

to me, to every man that is among you, not

to think himself more highly than he ought to think,

but to think soberly according to God. Half dealt to

every man the measure of faith. Now we're gonna go

to work.

First. One.

I beseech you, therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God,

that ye present.

Mm hmmm.

What exactly are we presenting to God? Present? Means to

exhibit to stand beside, that is, to be at hand

ready to assist. What says, here we go.

When you present your body, you are giving it up.

Oh I know.

I'm some of you can't even give up your TV.

You're gonna give up?

Oh I know.

I'm talking to some people. You can't even give up

that piece of cake.

I'm gonna get behind that role speak mm hmm. He said,

you're presenting your body, You're giving it up. You're making

it available as an instrument of faith. What that's what

I'm offering up? Yes, it said, a living sacrifice. You're

alive in your faith. I know some of you are

giving up dead sacrifices and passing it off as faith.

Oh lord, I don't know where I'm going there. Well,

you know what, let me make sure I got about

five hundred dollars in my account and God, I know,

God said to sell my house and a little make

sure I got a little money here. Five I got

to put that in an emergency account. All right, going,

I'll sell my house. I gotta make sure how much

money I have. I think I've been spent sith. I

think I can get a hotel for a couple of days. Oh,

I know how you think. But he said to offer

up your body a living sacrifice.

Faith is an.

Attribute, an action of operated in the realm of expectation,

activating the realm of what's hope for and bringing it

into the presence.

You present a living sacrifice.

Oh, here we go, we're about to go to work, honting.

When living means lively, sacrifice means slay. When your life

has become an instrument of faith that presents itself as

a form of sacrifice. Well, I thought I was giving

my sacrifice of worship. That's not what he asks from here.

He said, I want your body. I want the very

thing that's going to hinder you from faith. I want

I want your whole.

Body, your mind, your spirit, I want all of it. Yes, well,

how why do that?

When you surrender your will and accept Oh, we're still

pipping when we accept his will over our own. I

know somebody, you don't want to do that because faith

is gonna make you do some crazy things. Faith is

not pretty. No, that's where the sacrifice of your body

comes from.

That says God.

You can do whatever you want to do with my

body because your body is mine. You don't listen your

body don't belong to you, It belongs to him. And

when you signed up, wait a minute, I thought I

signed somewhere.

I know we can say.

You know, I was in this peril and I just

wanted to get out and I just shined the document.

But you didn't look at the fine print. Like I

said before, that said that anytime I want to use

your body to.

Manifest my faith walk you not giving up.

And that's why people are struggling now, going around in

the wilderness acting like they've got something going on.

But yet God said, wait.

A minute, I need your body to be used to

manifest my glory.

But guess what, we want to.

Keep circling around the wilderness, circling around the wilderness of

our job, circling around the wilderness of our family members,

of circling around the wilderness. So or if I could

just get that next delivery, if I can just get

that next.

Time, Jesus. But God has told.

You several times, I hope somebody's said He's told you

several times that you were called, that you were chosen,

that you had a ministry. But yet you keep wandering

around in the wilderness because a demi God donell spoke

to you and said, I don't feel like giving up

my body.

I don't feel like giving up my stuff.

But your body don't belong to you.

Faith is about living.

You don't become a living sacrifice until you walk by

faith and not by sight. See, he has to take

your body because I'm gonna tell you what's gonna happen.

Your body is gonna hinder your faith. Well, so what

are you saying, he's gonna snatch up my flesh.

No, your body is connected to your thinking. That's what

you need to offer him to God.

He's talking about the body of your mind, your thoughts,

your will, your emotions. This is why watch this perfect

example Abraham and Isaac. Uh, oh, woman getting somebody walking

around the building. I'm walking around because I'm gonna get somebody.

Abraham and Isaac.

God said to Abraham, sacrifice. Isaac put him on the altar,

give up your living example. See this is what it

was really about. See it wasn't about his son. And

see Abraham walked in a place of faith.

I know somebody gonna catch it in a minute.

But it's because he said to offer up your body.

See he offered up Isaac because Isaac was a part

of his body.

And guess what after he offered him up. Guess what,

God said, It ain't the body that I really wanted.

So it was your faith from it that I wanted

you to offer up. Because He was saying, put your

faith on the altar of sacrifice and offer for it

up in the form of righteousness. Oh, some of you

think you're righteous by the works that you do. Now

you think that by you serving in so many auxiliaries

and doing all the ministry and the footwork, that you're righteous.

But guess what, that's nothing but a work of faith.

Is an attribute of his character. Faith is an attribute

that moves you into the realm of his spiritual that

makes you into a place where you're pleasing God.

Because his righteousness came.

Through his faith that Abraham was an attribute to He

was an example of a type of Christ that moved

in the realm of faith, even in the midst of

being old testamental. He was a prototype of things that

were to come, and he walked by faith. He said

to Abraham, go into a country that you know not

of that you gotta lead behind your body.

You gotta lead behind.

All those that were some of.

You are not getting it to in this place.

Still connected to the flesh, and you're still trying.

To operate in a realm of faith, and you're wondering why.

You keep hitting the same old brick wall of why

you keep circling around in the wilderness and passing the

same bush, because you have not gotten into the place

that Moses got you, well, where he had to surrender

his body, a full living sacrifice, because in order for

the glory to sit upon him, he had to exchange something.

Watch this, We're going to go to another place. I

don't want this. Enoch was taken up. He was so

he did not see death. Why could he not see death?

Because he couldn't perceive it. See, he offered his body

in order for him to transition. In order for him

to translate, he had to exchange one for another.

He had to exchange his body for spirit.

You think, he says in the word, that should have

renewed your mind. He said, I'm trying to do what

Enoch had. I'm trying to exchange your body of flesh

and give you my spirits. I mean, some of you

are in dialysis, some of you got blood transfers that

you gotta get that blood clean. There has to be

an exchange, rains out all the bad blood and puts

in all the good money. You gotta do this every day.

He said, you've got to die Tohim because that body

and constantly wants to be in the mode of flesh.

I want this, Jesus, Jesus, Yes, God, Enoch.

Made an exchange.

But he heard this teaching from somebody, this perfect word

of faith from somebody, because.

It doesn't have any record that Enoch was necessarily listening

to anybody.

But I believe that he walked by the spirit, totally

by the spirit. He walked totally by faith, and it

pleased God. And God said, in exchange for your body,

I'm gonna take you about here in the realms of

the spirits. And because you've totally been consumed by faith,

don't you understand that God wants to do with his people.

Right here we have the full measure of Jesus Christ

on the inside. Yet all we can do is we

can't in pray a fly off the window seals. We

can in pray arms that grow back on people's limbs,

and people's eyes can't even see you.

We have to well, you know, come here, woman of God.

I know that you're blind.

In one ear.

Just keep believing, hollering. Oh yeah, she's still blind, haller,

she's still wing hal she's still blind after you prayed

for her. What's wrong her faith of yours, God, the

God of all nations, living on the inside of your spirit.

But you can't deliver.

A cat Jesus Jesus Enoch was translated because he couldn't perceive.

He didn't understand it.

He didn't let death, he didn't let the body get

in his soul.

He didn't let the soul take over his mind. He

didn't let the flesh rule and rain. He said, I'm

giving this over. I'm giving my dirty blood over to you.

I'm giving my dirty body over to you. I'm giving

my dirty thoughts over to you. And he allowed the spirit.

Of God to cleanse him.

By faith, and it pleased God. And God said, I'm

taking you out of here. But look at what it

says before the translation. Okay, well, let's go to the scripture.

Let me see if I can find it. Because I

didn't put it in my notes. I believe it's Hebrews one,

verse six, Hebrews Chapter I'm saying Hebrews chapter eleven, verse six.

Actually we'll start at five. By faith, Enoch was translated

that he could not see death. Why couldn't you see it?

Because he was offering up his body. And when he

offered up his body, I'm talking about the mind of flesh.

God poured himself into Enoch and said, there is no

need for you to be here, because faith has consumed you.

Jesus glorious, and you have pleased me. So I'm gonna

take you out of the realm of the flesh. But

I'm gonna say something spiritual. Enoch is not dead. He's

much alive in his people because Enoch is Christ. Lost

me now.

Because Enoch overcame death just like Jesus. Oh, y'all don't

want to, but look at what it says.

Before the translation, there was a testimony. He was the testimony.

He became the testament of faith.

His life became the testimony. He became the witness of

faith until it consumed.

His mind, took over his thinking.

And therefore it pleased God to take him into his

realm because Edith.

Was him Lord.

See, in order for us to travel in faith, our

body has to be removed because faith is an attribute

of the spirits. As Hebrews eleven says that we might

as well just read it because it's not in my notes.

Now.

Faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence

of things not seen. Notice it doesn't say things that

are seen. It says not seen. Why says faith is

the substance. Substance means the object of things that are expected. Oh,

my goodness, God is trying to get his people into

a place of When you walk in faith, when you

walk in the realms of faith, you are operating in

a realm of expectation. The only time you see death

is when your flesh is ruling right. But you don't

see death when you're walking by faith in the realm

of faith, because you're walking in a realm based upon

the spirit.

That's why when God says, sell.

Your house, sell your body. See that's what you're doing. Yes,

leave everything behind, leave your nets, Take up your cross.

And what do you say? He said, take up your cross.

Your cross is your body. He said, lay it on

the altar. He said to Isaac, lay your body.

On the altar, because your body.

Is hindering me from allowing you to operate in faith.

It is a very veil that you had to tear that.

Yes God, Yes, God. Enoch was translated. He didn't see death.

He didn't perceive it.

Means he was not consciously aware of it because he

operated in faith.

He operated in a realm that was outside of death.

God. I'm sorry, I'm taking.

Yes. Lord.

See, that's why faith will have you do crazy things,

because it's gonna go totally contrary to the things of

this world.

It's gonna go totally contrary to what man says.

Man's gonna always Oh.

Let me hold up, let me hold.

He didn't embrace it because there was something else that

he traded it for. He became a complete sacrifice of faith, because.

When you embrace faith, you please God.

Yes, your righteousness is not based upon what you do.

It is based upon operating in the character and the

spirit of faith. God does not need your work. Oh,

I know somebody's gonna get mad at me. Boy, so

you mean to tell me I've.

Been in this church for over twenty years.

I'm the mother, and I sat on the board of directors.

Got saved here when I was fifteen years old.

God don't care, and you're gonna meanestes that sits on

the board, and you're the one. You become Jezebel now

because the pastor gave you a promo. I know, I'm

talking about somebody on the podcast, and you became the

meanest snake there is that slivers it something. Okay, if

I talk about your mother, too bad. But you don't

operate in the fruits of faith because the Bible says

that you could do all the wonderless things. But if

you lack charity, you sound like nothing that has any sound.

It's just like faith. You could do all the works

in the world, but.

Jesus not being it. You know, all the people that

said God told them.

God told me.

To go travel across the country. God told me to build,

He told me to start the Lord told me. And

it's nothing but your flesh because there's.

No fruit coming from Jesus.

Your spirit that implifies the works that's you do. Okay,

let's go to Hebrews chapter six. Hebrews chapter six, Hebrews

eleven six. I'm sorry if your mama, if your mama

slapped your mama and ate grapes, it's too bad. Hebrews

eleven six. Let's get to the nitty gritty part. We

got some strange phenomena. We're hearing the door open and

people aren't coming in. I heard it was Shelley and

Alan Fonsa. Shelley and Alonfonsa. Oh she came in. Okay,

it says, but without faith it is impossible to please

him for he Mu. He that cometh to God must believe.

That he is.

And that He is a rewarder of them that diligently.

Oh no, I I I'll equate it to some of

you in our day and age. Let me read the

scripture again. I I I know I maybe I had

a glitchen to comm it was Ai that did it.

So I'm not gonna be Ai. I'm gonna be who

you people are. But without faith, it is possible to please.

God or to please him.

For he that cometh to God must believe that he

isn't and that he is a rewarded to them that.

Don't seek him at all.

They only seeking part time, or only seek them when

their back is against the wall. And then get mad

with God because I only sought you when I felt

like it. But then you expect God to get you

out of your mess or to reclaim what should have been.

But you only spend a partial amount of time with

your God. Let me tell you something about Let me

rap with you about faith, honey from experience, and this

is not my notes, but I think this isn't fit

a little bit.

If you think that you're gonna be able to survive

faith tests and not know your God, you're gonna die.

Your faith is an assignment. It is not just character.

It's an assignment.

And I'm looking at Christians today, I'm laughing at them.

Some of you wouldn't last five minutes with what I

had to go through. Some of you would abandon ship.

And that's why I'm gonna say a statement. Everybody that

says they're friends with you aren't going to be able

to survive. They've got a faith, walk.

Money, even lost life.

Even Lot's wife, well he was kind of a lot too,

because mm hmmm.

That goes to show you.

With Abraham that God had told him to go to

a land that he wouldn know not of and decided

that he couldn't cut off his body, couldn't cut off

their body. Mm hmmm. And so when it came time

for them to walk in faith, they decided they were

going to take their body with them, and then they

became a lot. They became a weight. But see Lot

could not go where Faith was going because with Lot

there was a lot of flesh. Because when it came

time for Lot to come out of Sodom and Gomorrah,

because he had grace, Abraham came to rescue your tale.

I said till I was very nice about it.

And Lot told his wife, don't look back.

I know I promised, because for you to go into faith,

you can't look back at what has already happened.

God, some of you are wrestling with thoughts and disappointment.

You're wrestling with thoughts.

That if I could have did this, I would have

did that, and I should have took this turn, because

I know if I would have took this turn, I

would have got this promotion. But I'm gonna just jump

down to all of this because I'll explain that a minute.

It says you must believe that he is, meaning he

is in every situation. Oh he is, until he is

taking over in every aspect of your life.

That he is has to take you over and get

rid of the he's not.

Oh, y'all, don't want this. When you walk in the faith.

He is is going to take over, and he's not

is coming out, thank you. This is why some of

you can't walk in faith because you're still dealing with

He's not. You're still dealing with identity problems. You're still

struggling with who God is. But see, you don't diligently

seek your Father enough to learn to know your Father

so that he can impart to you through your faith.

Because I can you something during my own personal struggles.

I have been away from God. When I mean away,

I'm talking about not spending the time I need to

with God.

And let me tell you something.

As the wilderness gets a little close, As the wilderness

gets a little you know, when the snow starts falling

the movie, Oh snow don't start falling the wilderness. Oh

yes it does.

It gets cold sometime.

Yes, you don't have somebody with me, Jesus, it gets

a little.

God, because I don't have somebody with me.

To cover me when I'm cold.

Jesus, y'all don't have that meat to cover you when

you're cold. You don't have that body up there. It

is you don't have that body covering you in the wilderness.

In faith, Jesus.

You don't know if you're coming or going.

Oh, I know, I'm gonna talk about me for a minute. See,

I don't even anybody know. I'm gonna tell you real experience.

You're thinking you're hearing fifteen voices.

I know some of you.

Some of you still listen in the fifteen voices, M

and you go to God.

I'm wondering when I'm gonna get out of this thing, Jesus.

Floods start talking. The flood.

The body starts talking before the spirit. But see that's

what God wants. God wants the body. God wants the body.

Look as Shelley had a lot of harm.

I don't try to put up the finger. I'm about

to give you the finger. I'm walking up into my

meeting late y'all broadcast.

You know I can.

I can speak it the way I want to. Let me.

Let me get back to this, let me roll it back.

He's eleven sixcess. You must believe that he is. But see,

you can't believe that he is when you don't know

who he is. Some of you spend time Jesus with God,

but you're too busy spending time with your dead beat

husband or you're dead beat father, that's the devil Jesus.

And you don't know who your dady is Jesus. And

then when it's.

Time to go through the faith trial, Jesus, Lord, where.

Did you go?

And God said, no, where did you go?

He said in verse six.

But without faith it is impossible to please him.

For he that comment to God must believe that he is.

But you can't believe who he is when you don't

know who he is.

And that's why he says he rewards them that diligently.

He's a manifestation when you seek God with all your heart,

leaving your body behind. I'm talking about your flesh.

When you give up your house. Oh y'all don't want

to do that. You don't want to give up your car.

And that's why it gets taken because he's trying to

sacrifice your body.

Your body is your flesh. The things that are connected.

He said, diligently seek me.

It means without in.

Because the faith walk is the cleansing walk. The faith

walk is what gets you.

Into the relationship with God because I'm faithfully knowing.

That, Oh God, here, come, let me take off my brain.

Lord word, maybe Sully, you should have stayed in the hallway.

Diligently seeking him is what deals with the mind be

being renewed. But why am I renewing my mind daily?

Because you have a body that is going to stop

the progress of His spirits consuming you and cleansing you

into a place that fills you up with his Faith.

Diligently means to pursue.

Persistence. Oh God, let me put the dough on, Lord Jesus,

let me put it on attentively showing care. It involves deep,

earnest commitment. Now I'm gonna stay with the commitment. Now

I'm gonna fry you like eggs on commitment. We're only

committed when there's a benefit, only when there's a benefit.

But are we committed to God when we lost every faith?

Jesus, you know you're committed to paying your bills, But

why are we not committed to the God that knows

all things? Do we not trust the God that knows

all things? Maybe we don't trust him because we don't

fellowship with him. But without faith, which is the persuasion

and creditence a moral conviction, it means truth. Without the

true measure of faith, it is impossible to please God.

To be in righteousness with him.

He saved you by grace.

He didn't save you because you look good or that

you had a lot of money. He saved you technically

because he wasn't. First of all, we weren't even on

his own.

We were adopted into this state.

He said, I'm gonna make my people, my body jealous Jesus.

But I'm gonna get some snaggle tooth.

Wig pulling make up, wearing, tattoo wearing people that I'm

gonna pour my spirit in them through my faith, and

they are.

Gonna become my people by faith. But guess what he

had an agenda, because not only did he come here

to save his body, he came here to adopt his spirits.

Exactly what he was doing, he set it up before

the foundations of the.

World without belief. Where does belief come from?

When you allow yourself to become a testimony? You cannot

testify about faith when you don't allow God to operate

in you in your faith. It starts with this process

your relationship with God. Your relationship with God builds.

On your belief. Yes, because I can't believe in something

I don't know.

And as you begin to know him, and I promise

you he's gonna tell you to do some dog crazy

things that are gonna go against your body.

And I know that I've heard this saying before with

it and I'm danced with it.

How do you know that God is speaking I said

this before.

It totally goes against what you.

Would think, because at that time, your thinking is connected to.

Your body, the very body that Isaac, that Abraham had

to sacrifice on that altar.

You don't know how many things in my lifetime God

has said, give this up. And here's some things that

he took away. Yes, because none of your stuff belongs

to you. When you confessed with your mouth and you

handed your body over to God, and you handed your

mind over to God, when you handled your when you

handled your wig over to God, your dress collection over

to God.

Guess what all your stuff became His stuff? And what

you didn't read at the fine per us. Any time

I want to take your house from.

You to prove in faith, anytime I want to take

your car away from you to prove you in faith,

I am at liberty to do it.

Nothing belongs to you. Your breath does not belong to you.

I know people think that their breath belongs to them,

but they don't belong to them.

Right now, let's go back to Romans. Romans twelve two.

We talked about the offering of our bodies a living sacrifice.

The offering of our bodies a living sacrifice is the

representation of our faith. We are offering our bodies in

faith as a living sacrifice, which is our reasonable service.

And this is where we get it. This is the

problem of our faith. And be not conformed to this world,

but be transformed by the.

I'm gonna tell you right now, faith for transforming.

Huh m, because let me tell you something.

Let me read this little statement that I put.

Where is it after the transformation, you must continue in

renewing it, keeping in the place of transformative thinking. But

I can't find the statement. Here's the statement. Here we go,

we go right here. When you're conformed, you accept the norm. Okay,

when you're transformed, you're reborn. Yes, let me say it

again because I know the people in the backmen hear me.

When you conformed, you accept the norm. That means that

you accept your normal. But when you're transformed, you're reborn.

That means in transformation, we don't stay in the.

Norm we are as the world would call it.

Abnormal because the Bible says we are peculiar people. You

don't fit my jibe.

See, it's only when you try to be like the

world and you're conforming.

Right.

The Bible says that we are in the world, but

we don't think like them, right right, Spotify Heart Radio,

I've got I'm feeling this function to stop. We're gonna

make this apart one and we're gonna come back and

revisit this.

I need to do some surgery.

Spotify Heart Radio. We will continue this, will pick this

up in a couple of weeks. I will let you

know when we will come back. I guess in a

couple of weeks or so. We'll make a part two

of this. And as I said before, if you need

to get in contact with the Ministry, my telephone number

is eight six zero five zero zero eight three seven.

And until I hear from you again, I pray that

you will have a blessed rest of your week, weeks, months,

and God bless you
