Prosperity - The still of God

We are talking about prosperity on these Sundays. How to live prosperous, blessed, successful lives. How many want to live successful and prosperous lives?

How to live prosperous lives? That is what we are talking about on these Sundays, how to live prosperous lives, how to reach that state of prosperity that is our inheritance as children of God because Christ came so that we may have what? Life, and life in abundance. That is prosperity. It is enjoying life. Do you know that there are people, that I actually preach the Gospel to them, and I tell them "accept Christ personally and enter into a deeper life with Him", not so much because I need to be saved, because I already believe in their heart they believe in Jesus and know him as the son of God, but it is simply because they have not entered into the fullness of life that God has declared for them. They have simply received Christ but have not learned how to use the principles of the Kingdom of God to bring prosperity to their lives. There are so many Christians who are in the kingdom, they are saved, they are going to go to heaven with everything and their shoes, but here on earth they are living a miserable and timid life because they do not know how to use the laws of the Kingdom of God, they do not know how to use the principles that lead to prosperity.

They are like people who have a lot of money in the bank, but they are starving, because they don't know how to access the account they have in the bank. And then we have to learn the principles of prosperity, and when we enter the Gospel we have to enter so that God blesses us, prospers us, prospers our children, prospers our marriages, our health, our minds, our intellect, our finances, our work life, our discipline, all the things we do, have to be leavened. What a beautiful word: leavened! Say leavened. Perhaps it is the only time in your life that you are going to use that word, leavened, by the leaven of the Gospel. The Gospel must penetrate all areas, that is why in the Bible the Gospel is compared to that leaven that leavens the whole dough. I fall more and more in love with that principle, brothers, that the Gospel has to penetrate all areas of human life, not only the spiritual area, but the area of the intellect, that is why we work to educate our children.

I want to see a prosperous congregation, with their children studying, going to university, being professionals, with adults going to school at night, learning English, taking more training to get promoted at work, because I believe that God gives us the mind of Christ. And we're sometimes like those old ladies who buy a sports car that can go 150 miles an hour and only drive it around town at 30 and never put it on a highway to test how strong the engine is.

Most Christians live within a tiny portion of the power that God has made dwell in us, and that power is transmitted to the intellect. We have...., all my life I have lived with that idea, that God has given me, has given us a better intellect than anyone in the world, because God gives us. If God gives us... Look, He created the entire universe, isn't He going to give us a privileged mind and be the mind of Christ? God can also penetrate your family, the structures of your family, never give the devil a place and space to walk with impunity in your house. You have to inform the principalities of the powers: "a child of God lives here, the holy spirit dwells here, this house is governed by the laws of the Kingdom of God and you have no right to enter this place." When you are in Christ Jesus, you have to assert your authority in the Kingdom of God, because God has given you authority, perhaps you do not feel it that way, but you have authority in the Kingdom of God and principalities and powers have to be subject to the authority of the son of God. What happens is that sometimes we don't use that authority, or sometimes we are not living as a person who has authority. Because having authority also implies having responsibility, so that authority can run through you, do you understand?

If you have a captain's or colonel's insignia and have been given that authority but you behave like a corporal, don't expect them to respect you when you give orders. You have to walk like a colonel, you have to talk like a colonel, you have to think like a colonel, you have to behave like a colonel, you have to exercise like a colonel, and you have to look like a colonel. In other words, authority also requires responsibility, behavior, an experience that supports that authority and we have to learn how to use the principles of the Kingdom of God, how to integrate the principles of the Kingdom of God into all dimensions of our lives so that then That God's authority, that God's blessing is transmitted to our family, financial, emotional, spiritual, relational, intellectual life, I don't know if I already said it, all dimensions of life, the Kingdom of God, the abundance of God penetrates and does wonderful things. That is living in God's prosperity.

And I don't care how far behind in the race you start. In the race of life some start very close to the front, they are like the Boston marathons, you see such a huge crowd. There are so many people that some are well behind, others are ahead and others are in the middle. you know what? But already at 26 miles, you know what? There everything was equalized, since one started 100 yards before, that no longer... in 26 miles that loses its relevance. And so it is in the race of life. Perhaps you are starting far behind because you did not go to school, or have a disadvantaged family background, or have emotional problems, or have never excelled at anything in life, or do not speak English, or come from a financially and educationally humble background. . Look brother, God doesn't care about that. God is perfectly capable of putting you at the head of the line if you use the principles of the Kingdom of God. That's what's wonderful.

God loves to take the poor out of the dunghill and put them to live in places of rich and prosperous people. He loves that, brothers, He loves to take simple people who do not promise anything and put them to live in places of kings, if they dare to use the principles of the Kingdom. That is why God chose corrupt tax collectors and fishermen and prostitutes and with these people these people He founded his church and conquered the greatest empire in history, which is the Roman empire. Because God likes to use the vile, the poor, the unpromising, the humble, the simple, the locked, the tied, untie it, bless it, blow on it and make it fly to heights like eagles. God wants to bless you. And I wish that we could understand that principle that God has caused a power to dwell in us that no faculty in this world can compete with.

But there is a price to pay. We have to know the laws of the Kingdom of God. We have to move according to the laws of the Kingdom of God, we have to take God seriously. Many Christians don't take God seriously, and that's the problem. We come to church, we simply stay here and look at the pastor when he preaches, we make strange gestures there, and all that, and we go home, and the fire of the spirit has not broken the interior schemes of our minds, of our emotions. So we can't expect God to bless us like that.

One of the most powerful principles of the Kingdom of God is that principle of giving. Put ourselves at a disadvantage and open a space for God to fill, bless us and prosper us.

Look at what Proverbs says, Chapter 11, verses 24 and 25: “There are those who distribute and more is added to them and there are those who retain more than what is fair but come to poverty. The generous soul will be what? It will be what, brothers?..... and whoever satisfies him will also be satiated ". Here are some paradoxes, what are called paradoxes in logic. They are like apparent contradictions, they are things that counterbalance each other. There are those who distribute, that is, there are people who collect money from what they have in the bank and give it and reduce their account. But what happens to those people? They are prosperous, in what way? As it says here: "..... more is added to them." There are people who invest, let's say, some money in a cause for the Kingdom of God, they become a little impoverished, but marvelously, more is added to them and at the end of a certain time, their account with which they temporarily impoverished, for the moment, is not only updated but more have been added. A paradox, because one would expect that if one reduces what one has left is less, right? But there are people who distribute and give and more will be added to them, and there are those who withhold more than what is fair, that is the key, more than what is fair, but they end up in poverty. What is this withholding more than is fair? I am not going to get too far ahead of that text, I hope before finishing the sermon, to come back to it, that you understand. what do you mean more than is fair? Withhold more, hold more, not give, receive, withhold, when the call comes to give more than what you spiritually have a right to withhold, and then you come to poverty. Instead of saying: well, since I have more then I am going to save more, retain more, right? That is the paradox of the Gospel.

Brothers, one of the keys to prosperity, I can tell you that in my life, with such conviction that when you give generously to the Lord, and I can still give him more, I could give him more, I must give you more. But when you give generously to the Lord comes prosperity and when we live with giving as a principle in the long term, all of life, it is a governing value of our life, give, give, give generously, be a generous, giving person, wide in what we give to the Lord, and in three dimensions to give: to give to the Lord first. Say “to the Lord”, secondly give to my church. Say it all so that "my church" is not mistaken and I want that to apply to everyone, and to others. To the Lord, to my church, and to others. When we give generously to the Lord and to the church and to others, as a principle of life, we prosper, we are blessed, we come to more. More is added to us. We live prosperous lives.

An essential principle in all Scripture from Genesis to Revelation, we see this principle expressed in different ways, narratives, biographies, theological texts, declarative, but always the same principle. Listen to him: "When one suffers loss or puts himself at a disadvantage to honor or obey the Lord, God is pleased, he promises to bless us." If you have a pencil write it down, because this is bread out of the oven, I'm not even going to charge you for this, free. Principles for young people, for businessmen, for mothers and fathers. “When one suffers loss or disadvantages in order to honor or obey the Lord, God is pleased and pledges to bless us.” That principle is in all of Scripture.

Let me take one or two examples of this. Daniel, a young captive, taken to Babylon by the Jewish aristocracy, is placed in the most advanced university in Babylon to become a member of the Babylonian bureaucracy, because the king had decided that these young Jews were very intelligent. Jews are always blessed, you know that right? They are intelligent, educated, disciplined people. He said to these young men, I am going to take them, I am going to train them and that Jewish spirit is going to bless my nation. He took Daniel and a group of other Jews and put them in his best university to train them for a while and then promote them to different government positions in his country.

Daniel was a boy consecrated to the Lord, he loved the Lord, you know the story. But as the little boys I know they like to hear it again and then Daniel, when he went to the university dining room, realized that this food had been sacrificed to Babylonian idols, and he was a pious boy. How rare is a pious young man today, brothers! As rare as in Babylon. And Daniel said: I am not going to contaminate myself with that food, because I want to honor my God. Do you see the idea of honoring the Lord? Obey the Lord. The other young people, I don't think God punished them for deciding to eat the food. I don't think it was like that, they just were, they weren't computing like Daniel.

Daniel had a different heart, it was a heart like Jabez's who said he was more illustrious than his brothers, because sometimes God puts that call in some lives, to be, to love the Lord more, obey him more, be more daring with the Lord, give more to the Lord. That is a gift and God gave it to Daniel. And Daniel said: I am not going to sacrifice my faith. And he made a deal with the head of all of them, he said: Let me eat legumes, spinach every day, vegetables, lettuce and cucumbers, with a little dressing. Every day and I do not eat from the food that has been sacrificed to idols. Then their chief said to him: but, boy, according to... look, he was calculating according to the world, according to reason, which is what we use many times when we say: I give to God or not. We use reason. He said, if you don't eat, you're going to get emaciated, you're going to get weak and they're going to blame me for being careless with the young people the king has entrusted to me. Daniel said; no, give me, test me, 10 days I think it was? And we'll see what happens. And you know the story.

Daniel, Chapter 1, verses 8, 15. says that “.....at the end of 10 days their faces seemed better and more robust than those of the other boys who ate from the portions of the king's food. Because there were other friends who were blessed by Daniel's example and also drank. What's going on? When we are generous with God others are blessed, they are also inspired to be generous with God.... and the Bible says that to these 4 boys God gave knowledge and intelligence in all letters and sciences and Daniel had understanding in all vision and dreams. You see, as Daniel was impoverished for a moment, he didn't play like the others, he risked his privileged position. He risked starvation, emaciation, weakness to glorify his father, honor his God, God blessed him with wisdom, science, intelligence, academic success, grace. He gave him understanding in the underground realm of the spirit with visions and dreams because when God gives, God gives generously. How many millions would people pay to have understanding about the secret things of the universe. God gave them to Daniel for free.

When you give generously to the Lord, God blesses you. You understand? That is the beginning, Daniel became impoverished, Daniel became weak in the flesh, Daniel put himself at a disadvantage for a time to honor God and God committed himself to him and blessed him beyond what Daniel gave. And Daniel's life was always an example of that. That idea, brothers, that you become impoverished, weakened, fall at a disadvantage, and then say: Father, let this be my holocaust to You, my sacrifice, bless it, bless me. That there is nothing wrong with expecting God's blessing when you are faithful to Him. We don't have to be more Catholic than the Pope, either. I don't just want to give to the Lord out of love for Him, I don't need him to give me anything. Lie. You always want something, God bless you. And if he doesn't ask it for you, ask it for someone else around you, brother. Like when you go to restaurants, right? Meche says: oh, I don't want a salad, I tell her, no, ask for it, give it to me, I'll eat it. If we are paying for it. If you don't want a blessing, ask for it for your son, ask for it for your brother, ask for it for your church, for someone. But God likes that we ask Him, and that we are faithful to Him and that we expect to be blessed, because He is like that, He blesses those who honor Him.

In the case of Solomon, God told him: Ask for what you want. Solomon did not ask for glory, he did not ask for money, he did not ask for the death of his opponents, he asked for wisdom to be faithful to him as king. What did God do? blessed him.

Look at First Kings, Chapter 3, verses 10 to 14. God was so happy that this young boy became impoverished, weakened when he had the opportunity to ask him what he wanted that like other men they would according to money, things that are selfish, and it pleased the Lord that Solomon asked for this. Because when we seek the Kingdom of God, his justice and other things come in addition. When you seek the glory of God and the pleasure of God, then he says, what happens? He says "it pleased, God was pleased" before the Lord that Solomon asked for this, and God said to him "...because you have demanded this and you did not ask for yourself", selfishness is the principle that always destroys us, it is the "I", the personal advantage, which gives me my pleasure or..... "and you did not ask for yourself many days, nor did you ask for riches for yourself, nor did you ask for the lives of your enemies, but you demanded for yourself intelligence to hear judgment, that is, to benefit others. Behold, I have done it according to your word. In other words, I give you everything you asked for. Behold, I have given you a wise and understanding heart so much, because when God gives abundantly, there has not been another like you before you nor after you will rise another like you. And look here at the “still”, the “still”. That is what I like about God. That is the little part that I always want in my life, the still of God, because when I give to God, God gives me what I have given him, he returns it to me, but then he says "still" I will give you more.

Everyone say “yet”. And from now on I tell you, title this sermon "the still of God", because here it says: "and I have also given you the things you did not ask for, riches and glory in such a way that among kings there is none like you in all days and if they walk in my way keeping my statutes and commandments like you and David, your father, I will lengthen your days." In other words I'm still going to give you money, glory, power, peace in your enclosures and I'm going to give you a long old age. Who doesn't want that, brothers? But Solomon had to put himself at a disadvantage first, you know? Seek the glory of God, think about dad, not think about him. So dad gives him what he gave him because he gives it back, and then he gave him much more. What a great blessing!

If we understood these principles. Sometimes we read the Bible and these things pass us by. Now the question, do you dare to believe that God still works as he did with Solomon? That this was not only for Solomon, in the century that I know before Christ, but now in the 21st century at this time for you, put your name on that text, it is also that dynamic. If you give to the Lord, if you seek his glory, if you seek his kingdom, if you seek the principles of his Kingdom, if you seek to honor him first, he will give you something that you have given him and will give you much more, the requests from your heart, those secrets that would need a psychiatrist to reveal them to you, God reads them and gives them to you. Because he enjoys giving his children more than they ask for and more than they give him.

You cannot give anything to God, as brother Montaña said yesterday: God is the owner of everything. What can you give to God? Gold? He made the gold. A fancy church? The block you use and the shiprock is from God. Your life, He created it. Your praise, hymns, works of art, who gave you the intelligence and creativity to conceive of those things? God gave them to you. You cannot get out of what God has made and created. Everything you are, think, desire, offer, comes from God. So from what you have received you are giving to the Father. You can't give anything to God, in other words. What you can make is symbolic offerings, and He receives those, and blesses them and much more. Secrets of living a prosperous and abundant life.

In the Kingdom of God when you become weak, or impoverished to please or serve Him, He replaces what you lost and gives you even more. That is the principle, brothers, it is the structural principle that governs other practices. So the practices are simply the manifestation of the principles. I'm going to explain that to you another day, it's too early now in the morning. The practices are simply the expression of the principles, the fundamentals. It's like in mathematics, the laws of mathematics are predicated on what are called postulates, which are fundamental principles from which everything else proceeds, all operations, addition, subtraction, division, multiplication, geometry. All these things depend on logical postulates, physical postulates, etc.

The postulates of Scripture among them is that principle that is later manifested in practices such as tithing or fasting. They are practical, but the principle is that: impoverish yourself, reduce yourself, fall into a disadvantage to open space for God's power to increase in you, God's blessing in you.

What is tithing? I already explained it to him yesterday, you put yourself at a disadvantage, that 10%, which sometimes doesn't even give you enough to pay the bills. So you say: how am I going to give him 10% if I barely keep those I owe them at bay, and I can barely pay for the car and the house, and now the Lord asks me to give him 10% of my money. But then you say, no, but God's logic is different. God says: if you become poor, if you dare to believe God and reduce that 10%, God is good for you, I even have background music for my preaching at this moment, God is saying, you are doing well. Amen. If you reduce that 10%, you weaken your finances, I'm going to replace 10% and I'm going to give you more. It is the postulate of impoverishment, reduction for the glory of God and that God commits himself.

Fasting is also explained that way. Logic and reason tell you, the more I eat, the more strength I will have. You know that's not true, even logic doesn't support that yet. But you know that if you don't eat you weaken, there is a reasonable level of eating and fasting says: no, if you physically weaken in spirit and that food that is so important for your mind or for your body, you exempt yourself to participate in it, and in the spirit you reduce your amount of food and offer that sacrifice, that space in your stomach to the Lord, God is going to restore you and bless you and prosper you, he is going to give you strength like those of the buffalo Say amen, even if it's to please me, do you understand?

That is the idea, if you fast, you become weak, God makes you strong. Vigil, if you spend sleep, and spend and little work, God blesses you. It's a beginning, that's how it is. I can teach you that throughout the entire Bible, many texts open up when we understand this principle. Instead of going behind a pair of pants to look for her man somewhere else, Ruth, as Naomi told her, says: No, I'm going to be faithful to you, I'm going to love you, old lady. I am going to go with you, I am going to walk with you, I am going to be faithful to you, I am going to be a noble woman, and I am going to stick to you, I am going to protect you and I am going to keep you. I, my youth, will cover you with it. And what happens? God gets her a man later and blesses her as the ancestor of Jesus Christ and great-grandmother of King David, and redeems her from being a mere Moabite who has no right to even be part of the Kingdom of God according to the law, makes her a member of the family of Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! And all through the Scripture you see that principle. When you put yourself at a disadvantage, impoverish yourself in some way, weaken yourself in some way to glorify God, God promises to bless you, to prosper you and that has to be a practice every day of our lives. And if we do not practice that principle we are in disobedience, I dare say.

Let's go to a text..... let's go back for a moment to get the most out of that Proverbs 11 text. Let's examine them in light of what I'm telling you. I hope now it becomes clearer. “.... there are those who distribute and more is added to them, that is, there are those who become impoverished and receive more than what is reduced. Why? Because they are operating according to that spiritual principle, that postulate of the Kingdom of the spirit, and there are those who retain more than what is fair but come to poverty. Because? Because they are violating that postulate of the spiritual Kingdom, because there is nothing wrong with withholding something, brothers, it is good to save, it is good, see if..... God is not asking you to be a fool, to be exploited and to make of you what people want. No, you have to withhold, you have to do your accounts and make sure that you can pay for things in life. You have to be prudent. Okay, but what God says is don't hold back what? More than what is what? Fair. In other words, there are things that it is not legitimate for you to retain, such as the tithe for example.

If you read the Scripture continuously and if you.... that expression that I do not say, says it: “you have robbed me of the entire nation, says the Lord, you have robbed me. Because tithing is a sacred portion of your money as a believer, as a child of God that is not yours, it is not fair for you to withhold it. If you withhold it, you are entering the terrain of illegitimacy, then you come to poverty. You are throwing your money on deaf ears. If someone in need comes to you and you have the way to bless that person, your brother needs something, and you withhold helping him, bless him, contribute to his well-being, you are withholding more than is fair. If your church needs something to bless the Kingdom of God, advance the purposes of the Kingdom of God and you can help it, and you are in a position to do it, and you don't, you are withholding more than is fair. If you have a talent and the Kingdom of God needs it, and you are not giving it to the Kingdom of God, you are withholding more than is fair and you are coming to spiritual poverty in your life. So I say, yikes! of those that God endows with a talent and are not using it for the Kingdom of God and unfairly withhold it, they come to spiritual poverty. You have to give to the Lord, give to your church, give to others generously. God loves generous people.

Actually, the origin of my concern to preach this sermon is because, brothers, I want to see a congregation of men and women who give generously to the Lord because that is the key to a prosperous congregation, that is the key so that in 10 years I see you having bought your houses, having promoted in your jobs, having learned to speak English, having subjected your children to the discipline of the Lord and having your children, having seen their marriages healed and blessed, seeing their talents used for the glory of the Lord and lifted up, seeing single mothers who arrived ignorant and seeing them covering young girls with their advice, discipling other women, tithing to the Kingdom of the Lord, using their talents to bless the church of God, because they have given generously.

A thriving community is a community that recognizes the Lordship of Christ and gives generously to the Lord. When the Lord says give me, simply because he wants to see if we give him, and we give him, God blesses that community. Do you want to be blessed on an individual level, do you want to be blessed on a spiritual community level? Give generously to the Lord. When God asks you to give him, do not put up with more than what is fair to the Lord. That is the beginning.

When God calls you come and study, come and watch, come and fast, come and tithe, come and serve, don't tell the Lord no, I'm tired, I'm depressed or I have other things to do. Do not give excuses to the Lord, give to the Lord generously, whether you want to or not, whether you are at an advantage or a disadvantage, whether you have a lot or a little, it does not matter, give to the Lord generously, impose yourself on your flesh and do it out of a spiritual principle and God will bless you. I see many people in our congregation, I say it now pastorally that they have gifts and talents and they are not giving to the Lord as they should give and sometimes they are stingy, when their church needs them and sometimes they are too comfortable, brothers and too clinging to their gifts , and the Lord says: I am not going to bless you, I cannot bless you and until you give me generously. God is honored by men, women who are passionate towards Him and generous towards Him. The person who gives to the Lord without measure, that is the person who is blessed and we want people with a warrior heart in this community, who are being blessed and are winning over your teammates and the souls of your teammates as well because there is an abundance of passion in your hearts.

We want, brothers, a... volunteering is something important in a church. I hope that if the Lord gives us a 50 million budget each year, that this church still has men and women who serve him for free in this church and that this church does not become a church of professionals. I rebuke that spirit in the name of Jesus. There are people who do not want to do anything for the Lord if they are not paid. I rebuke that spirit in the name of Jesus. And you understand then that if men pay you, God cannot pay you because you already received your reward. And I am not saying, I believe that the worker is worthy of his salary, they pay me for what I do, but I did not serve the Lord for the money, that if I wanted to I would give more money abroad, but there are things that we We have to give the Lord that only He and I know, no one else.

People don't understand that, when you give generously to the Lord, God never tires of blessing you, the way to be financially prosperous is by saying: no, I don't want to, I would like to be able to work without being they will pay If I could do what I do, with a secular job out there, I would prefer that a thousand times over. And I did that for a while, until the work increased too much for me to be able to do both physically. But I prefer much more to give everything I can to the Lord, from my life, what I have, from my portion, that the Lord reward me, because I want him to pay me, because when he pays me, he pays me a lot better than any man can pay me.

If we understood that principle, brothers in everything we do in our lives, how we would be blessed. Give to the Lord generously always. And look up and say: Father, I do it for your glory and your honor. Look from your kingdom and bless me as you know how to bless me. If you want to bless me with money, bless me with money. If you want to bless me with health, bless me with health. If you want to bless me with the reconciliation of my emotions, do it like this, or with the secret requests of my heart that you know well, come, pay me in the currency that you want, but I do it for you. This is the offering, Lord, that I have for you. Live generously. Give, to the Lord, to your church, to others. Be generous with God. I want a church that is always becoming poorer for the Lord because that church is always going to be enriched by the Lord. Listen to the postulate, if you become poor for the Lord, you will be enriched by the Lord. Write it down before it slips out of your mind because that's good. If you become poor for the Lord, you will be enriched by the Lord. Apply that principle every day of your life, in every transaction, in every decision that you make and says the Lord, and look, if I do not open the window of heaven and I will give you until it overflows, it is the word of the Lord for you this morning.

Let's stand up. I would like to have more time because there are so many things in the treasury of God's word about this principle and I don't want it to escape us, brothers. Let us be diligent, awake people, passionate towards God. Let us raise up a church whose eyes are like two burning fathoms of passion for God, a passionate church for the Lord, which knows how to move in the principles of the Kingdom of God.

God wants to bless you, but you must give to Him generously of everything, time, talent, gifts, energies, sleep, emotions, everything. Just give to the Lord passionately and trust in Him. He will bless you beyond your wildest dreams. He will prosper you. He will place His hand on you. His love will be with you 24 hours a day.

That is the blessing of the Lord for the children of God. Let us not be children, says the Lord, in things of the spirit, let us be children for malice and wickedness, but let us be wise for things of the spirit, says the Lord, let us be mature for things of the spirit. Let's learn to process the laws of the spirit as God asks. Let's be passionate to get those gold nuggets that are locked up in the word of God.

Let's put our heads down. Let us repent of all selfishness. Let us repent of all materialism in what refers to the Lord, let us repent of all timidity, of all conservative and clinging character in what has to do with the things of the Kingdom of God. Let us repent of being too conservative, too timid with our talents and our gifts. Give to the Lord, fall in love with the Lord. Believe the Lord. Apply the principles of the word of the Lord and you will be prosperous, you will be blessed. Father, let this word be embedded in the walls of this church, reverberate every day that this congregation exists, Lord. These principles that have been enunciated, Father, we embrace. They are governing principles of this church and if we do not obey them and live by ....... have mercy and alert us and discipline us so that we return to that path, Lord, because we know that this is the path of blessing for a community.

Record these principles in our hearts Lord, and do not let this word, which is a promise, fall to the ground, Lord. Don't let this prophecy fall to the ground, Father. Those who apply it be blessed and see the blessing, Lord. I launch this word, Father, like a projectile into the hearts and spirits of my brothers this morning and I bless them with it, Father, I fertilize them with that word, I impregnate them with the seed of your kingdom and your Gospel, Father, in this morning. May those who receive it be prosperous and blessed, those who close against it, Father, experience the truth of your word as well. We submit to your judgment, Lord, this morning as a church, we embrace your truth, Lord. We embrace your judgment, Lord. We embrace your commandments and your precepts, Lord. Have mercy on us Father. Help us to be upright and upright before you, Lord, and to live according to what your word reveals to us. Oh Lord . We adore you, we bless you, Lord. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Jesus. We adore you, Lord, we bless you.
