With God's Blessing Comes Great Responsibility

I feel that God wants me to freely share in the Spirit as a prophetic Word to you and simply download the content of what God has placed in my heart, and it is a Word to God's people.

And it develops two things: on the one hand, God's provision, God's blessing, the great supply supplied that God has given us, the abundance in which God has made us dwell as His children, as members of our spiritual community. . But on the other hand, also the responsibility that this entails and the weight that this confers on us as beneficiaries of the Lord's Grace.

And God gave me a Word in Ephesians chapter 1 that I actually shared when I was in Puerto Rico when I was in Puerto Rico recently with a Congregation there, precisely in connection with that year that was about to start when I was there, and it found in Ephesians chapter 1 verse 3, and that Word says: "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who blessed us" say: blessed, "with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ", blessed us with all blessings spirit in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.

I love it when God talks about his blessings in the past tense, in the past. There it does not say: the God who is going to bless us with all spiritual blessings, the God who may bless us, but rather it says that he "blessed us." And many times God speaks in the past tense, He speaks things that He has placed in us, things that He has uttered since the foundation of the world, from before the foundation of the world, and that are things that are there, are in us, are in our system itself and are already declared by God.

And we walk pregnant with God's blessing, we walk inseminated with a spiritual seed that is full of blessings. And when we enter into the economy of the Kingdom of God, when we enter into the ways of the Lord, when we accept Christ as our Lord and Savior, when we are touched and sealed as members of the Kingdom of God, we immediately enter into that inheritance, we enter into that blessing. God impregnates us with a Word of blessing and already then we have been blessed.

And many of us are princes and we have great resources at our disposal but we live as beggars, we do not actually inhabit that blessing, but we are already blessed, that is written in us.

And the Word is very clear, it says: "and he blessed us with every blessing" and that every blessing means: name whatever you want, 360 degrees of blessing. All the nutrients you need for a victorious life are already in you, and God injected them into you, they are there waiting to be activated, waiting to be developed, waiting to be used, all the armor you need for a fruitful, victorious life. to walk on the water, to have victory over diseases.

How beautiful it is when a sister like Carolina, with all her sufferings, stands here with such grace, such beauty, and unloads God's blessing on a people. She could be like I said this morning, depressed, sad, why me? licking her wounds, but she is a radiant woman filled with the Spirit of God, she walks on her diseases. Because many times we believe that only God's blessing comes when he makes things that afflict us disappear, but you know what? the bible says: "Before in all these things we are more than conquerors", not out of these things.

Many times in the midst of afflictions, struggles, marital problems, life challenges, various illnesses, it is in those things that we are more than winners, and sometimes God chooses to say: No, you know what? glorify me with your experience. And sometimes it is in our sufferings that by being faithful to the Lord and giving glory to Him, He aspires that holocaust of our faith and that is also a blessing, because victory is not only in being exempt from suffering but also in being victorious in the ailments.

So be that as it may, God has blessed us with every blessing for any situation in life but also to overcome giants, also to get out of trouble, also to overcome difficult situations, also to have prosperous marriages and God-fearing children, prosperous, blessed , to have material abundance, to get out of poverty, to walk on the tribulations, on the waters because the Lord wants us to be prosperous and blessed. I am not ashamed to announce a Gospel of blessing, what happens is that many times we simplify it too much and we only go for jam and butter but we do not tell people that there are also other things involved, right?

But yes, God has blessed us with every spiritual blessing already in the past, in the past, and God has blessed you and this Congregation with every spiritual blessing. God tells us as a Church that He has deposited great and powerful things on this Congregation. I have lived all these years eating a very nice piece that God has given me as a promise. Every once in a while I pluck a crumb and eat it, like popcorn in a bag, and I live pregnant with the blessing that God has declared on this town.

I remember that dream God gave me about the Lion of Judah and the spiders that ruled this city and had influence and the Lion of Judah ruled over them, and my declaration that He is Lord, not the demons. And we received that call and we came here to Boston believing, and we've seen the blessing of the Lord. We got here literally penniless and God has blessed us and prospered us, we live in a beautiful place and we give the Lord all the honor and all the glory because He is the one who did it, not any of us.

We had to believe God, I had to believe in a vision and that vision is still unfolding. I have lived all these years believing other things that God is going to develop, but I have always said to the Lord: Father, it is You who lifts up, not man, not one announcing himself and making faces, and making people believe that they have more anointing that he has but letting God be the one who lifts up and God is the one who pulls from behind the sheep when He wants in His moment and in His time.

Because when things grow in the Lord's time and in the Lord's way, no one can take them away, and many times God has to grind us down too much and purify us, and work on us, and crucify us several times before He can put us in the inheritance that He has given us, and we have to have the patience to wait for Him to fulfill His purposes and for Him to do what He has to do.

But God has blessings for this town and I believe that we are very close to harvest time. I told the brothers on the 31st that this is a harvest time that is opening up before us. But knows? as I have always told you about that harvest, I understood then why I spoke of consolidation last year, because God wanted us to begin to heal ourselves from debts and many of the things we had, but I also did not understand what consolidation meant that something was missing, you have heard me say before, something very important, which was the connection between this sanctuary and the original sanctuary, that had to be done because it was in the original plans; and there had been a serious obstacle there that all the architects and engineers and everyone who knows the legal world said: that cannot be built unless it is in a very painful way, but God opened the sea in an incredible way.

And that is why I have always told them that the greatest miracle that God has done in all these constructions is that little tooth that is there, that we are building. By the way, it's closed because I didn't want to have that on Wednesday when we have the service and our brother Javier and the workers have been very good. What we did was prepare this part ahead of time and they are going to continue working afterwards, they are going to continue in the meantime but that is why it looks so beautiful, so closed there, it is not that we regret it and close it, it is there I promise you, and there are many good things that are happening in the construction and you will see in a short time.

But again: God is a God of systems, God does things well and when he does them He takes His time and makes them solid, He wanted that because without it there was no connection, that connection was needed between the old and the new because He is like that, but it is because He has good things ahead of us and He wants to finish one thing to enter another facet.

But the blessings that God has declared on this people are great, they are abundant, and the call of God. And I believe that this invitation to be the venue for this inaugural service of the Governor is part of that gradual realization of the Lord, God has been slowly entering us into those dimensions.

I remember when, a couple of years ago, God allowed me to be one of the speakers at the ceremony that took place when the terrible explosion here in Boston, there was President Obama and all these people, and the Lord has been increasing the level exposure and influence and visibility, because that's how He works. When He does things, He does them that way.

And He will continue because this people has a call from God because God likes to take the weak and the poor, and put them in places of influence, that's how His heart is, so humble because it has to be that way, but He takes His time. But the genetics of that blessing is already in us. God has blessed us with every spiritual blessing and God may we be a prophetic people, a people of influence, a people of signs and wonders, a visible people, a benevolent people who exert a holy influence and overthrow those principalities and powers that are ruling this city in the Name of the Lord and with the anointing of the Holy Spirit.

And we have within us all the weapons we need, they are there and they will begin to come out, the wings will continue to grow and the glory of God will continue to increase until we see the full manifestation of all that God has given in us. . But genetics is there and it is in your life too, that is what I want you to understand, that God has made you strong.

I know that many of you are dealing with a number of things: marital problems, appetites that are not controlled, financial situations, uncertainty about the future, desires for achievement and improvement that you have not yet been able to fully see, afflictions of different kinds, emotional situations that affect you, calls that you feel that God has given you but you have not yet seen the fulfillment of that call, children that you would like to see in the House of the Lord worshiping God and serving the Lord but you still do not Have you seen that touch of the Spirit of God in their lives and you are afflicted and think, when will it happen? God has already given the Word within you, believe it in the Name of the Lord.

But knows? Many times, despite the fact that we have that genetics within us, there is a part that we have to do, it is the part of fanning the fire of the gift of God that is in us.

An illustration that occurred to me this morning so that we understand how it is possible to find yourself in a fragile situation but be filled with the potentiality of God within you. I thought, a very personal example of our little granddaughter Daniela that you know was born very premature, 25 weeks, one pound and three ounces, she weighed eleven inches, a bunny was bigger than her the day I went to visit her, but what? Know what? This week a Psalm that I know intimately, I know it by heart, and one of those verses says: "Your eyes saw my embryo and in your book were written all those things that were later formed without missing one of them."

Did you know that when you are conceived in your mother's womb you already have all the details of your body and your human configuration? If you are going to be like a very attractive film star, if you are going to be feito, you are also already in there, if you are going to have blue or black eyes, if you are going to have hair, little hair, if you are going to be very tall, not very high, even sometimes our temperament is also involved there because biology and temperament have a lot to do with one another, but everything is already written there, written in the genetic book, the genetic code is one of the most fascinating things in the universe, it is written literally.

That is why they call it a genetic code, it is a script, and in fact biologists have deciphered it and put it in terms of letters even to make it more or less understand how the different genetic components interact, God wrote it and it appears in the Psalm, God already designed that. Danielita in her very fragile state, I said that like never before in my life and Meche, who is an occupational therapist and who knows the whole neurological issue of children very well and all these things, who works with children, for her it has also been very instructive because we have literally seen that little body developing little by little, we have seen her skin become denser and less transparent, her tummy grow because she is already drinking more milk and is receiving more nutrients, seeing her getting bigger, heavier, her lungs acquiring more ability to breathe, to see his size increase, it's incredible.

I have never been so aware of the development of the human body, I have anatomy books in my house and now I am reading them because I have prayed about everything; every day I pray for your brain, for your palate, your vocal cords, your gallbladder, your intestines, your stomach, the level of your hormones, the different chemicals in your brain, the white blood cells and the red blood cells, your vocal cords , his pancreas, his esophagus, his ligaments, his bones, his calcium level, everything, I could be here for him, and I pray for each of those things because the Lord weaves the body of a human being.

And it made me aware of that and I am going to learn more about anatomy because there is something very important in that. But the wonderful thing is that, that everything is written within it, all that formation is already there, it is developing and perhaps right now we see that the situation is tiny, fragile, but God has conferred every spiritual blessing. Your family, God wants your family to be prosperous, blessed, but you have to, as the Lord said to Joshua: "Look, I command you to make an effort and be brave."

Again there is another case in which God spoke in the past tense, when he told Joshua: "I have given you all the land" he told Joshua as a representative of all the people "I have given you all the land that the plant treads on from your feet" he had not even left the desert yet, he had not yet entered the Promised Land but God had already given him the whole land, so he said to him: "Look, I am commanding you to strive and be brave, do not stray from this book of the law of you and all things that are written in them, walk according to my ways" but God had already delivered him.

Joshua enters the Promised Land with a title in his hand where God conferred the land on him and he could enter with that title. Now: there were tribes waiting to behead him, cut off his head, they were going to defend their land and the Hebrews had to fight to possess the land that God gave them, so he said to him: "Look, I command you to make an effort and be brave, I will be with you wherever you go, no one will be able to face you all the days of your life" because there were going to be people who were going to face him but they were not going to beat him, they were not going to beat him because he had the title in hand .

And that is why the Hebrew people, the Israelites right now, the Jews are so unfaithful, and there are people who want to take away a good part of their land and want to destroy them, but God gave that title to those people and gave it to them. gave irrevocably, not even their own imprudence will be able to take it away because God gave them the title. When you have title to something, 30 years can go by and when you return you say: look here is the title to my house, get out of it because this belongs to me.

So God blesses us many times and gives us every blessing, what happens is that many times we are indolent and we do not do our part but it is already there, God wants you to enter the earth victoriously this year and the years to come, but you have to, one has to. Again, that is the other part of my meditation.

On the one hand a God who blesses us with every spiritual blessing, so great that blessing in fact, that we need a divine impartation of wisdom and knowledge in order to understand how great is the blessing that God has given us, read that chapter, look later in In verse 17, Paul says that he prays that they receive the spirit of wisdom and knowledge to understand how great is the blessing that God has given to this people, "enlightening the eyes of your understanding that you may know what is the hope to which He He has called you and what is the richness of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, and what is the super eminent greatness of His Power toward us who believe according to the operation of the power of His might."

Can you receive that in your spirit right now and believe that the same spirit that raised Christ from the dead dwells within you and that that spirit gives you authority to walk in power in your life? I know it may have taken time but don't let your hope that God has great purposes for your life fade.

Perhaps you have not received all the good now but believe and keep because many times the blessings that God gives and declares take a long time to come true. He blessed Abraham with a son and it took him how many years? He reached 100 years of age and the poor man said: well, I'm already too dry, that son is not going to be born, and he even messed with the servant and had a problematic son, Ismael, who is still giving headaches out there, because he impatient, because God is not in a hurry, he takes time to do things. But Abraham and Sarah were already pregnant with a son since God told them: you are going to have a son and you are going to be more numerous than the sand; If you can count the sand of the Earth, you will be able to count your offspring, the Lord told Abraham, but it takes a long time, don't be discouraged.

Here is the other part in which you have to make an effort, there is a blessing and a responsibility and I want to talk to you about the responsibility that falls on us as a Church and falls on you as the head of your home, falls on you as a leader, falls on you as a believer, there is a responsibility connected with that great blessing, with that genetic impartation that God has placed in your spirit and in your being because that blessing is in heavenly places, it is a spiritual blessing. Like Mary, the Holy Spirit settled on her and impregnated her, and from there something physical came out: the Son of God, perfect man and God living together in a single creature.

But when God blesses in heavenly places that falls on us and then it manifests itself in real conditions and circumstances, and life, but there is a part that we have to do.

I remember the words of the apostle Paul to Timothy in Second Timothy chapter 1, I think verse 6? where he says: "I advise you to fan the fire of the gift of God that is in you." It is up to God to put the gift in us and it is up to us to enliven the gift, to fan the gift so that it catches fire. God puts an ember in you and it's your turn to take a fan, a piece of cardboard like we did in the stoves, I don't know how many have used a stove, they don't have to raise their hand, don't worry, I know we know, You know well what I'm referring to, don't worry, right? but the embers are there, you have to pick them up and fan them to make them come alive, right? and likewise the ember of God is within you but you have to fan it, that's up to you.

Fan the fire of the gift of God that is in you. You have to do works of justice, you have to move and start walking in the Name of the Lord. If we had stayed comfortable there in Cambridge with a building that didn't cost us anything tucked into a tiny neighborhood there that was already too small for us and if we had feared the crime giants that were here in Boston at that time twenty years ago we would be still there, tiny and dry, but I said: Lord, if You called us I am going to run, we are going forward and we have seen His glory, the gift has spread, it has widened.

That is why, once again: that connector there I was scared when God put the possibility of developing that in my hands because I had already delivered it, and as Abraham had told him: no, that son will not be born, so God puts it in my hand, but we are already tired and overwhelmed by all the expenses and all the responsibilities, and then I ask myself: Lord, how can I come to this Congregation and say that we still have to continue working and giving ? but that's my mind.

I have learned that I cannot let myself be carried away by what my mind, reason tells me, I have to believe God, if something is from God it happens somehow, God opens the way, God provides. And then you get into trouble because you know that God has spoken to you and God is faithful, over and over again.

You have to start walking with the gift of God, with the call. If you have discerned that it is from God, go ahead, make an effort, take risks, believe the Lord, get uncomfortable, be scared of yourself and you will see that the Lord does not stop blessing you then and God provides. You have to be responsible before God, you have to take risks, you have to believe the Lord.

Many of us do not receive the promises because we have not believed the Lord, God wrote something inside of us but we look at ourselves and we see ourselves as tiny, like those spies, right? who said: oh yes, the land that you have promised us is good and beautiful but there are some giants there who want to cut off our heads and they are all basketball players: they measure 6'8" and 7'2" and we are little madmen .

Josué and Caleb said: look, if God is with us, we're going to eat them like bread and we're going to spread a little butter and jam on them so they'll taste even better. Because it is that when God gives you do not think about your condition or about how big the obstacles are, you simply make sure that God spoke to you, and if God spoke to you, He will take care of the rest. You are going to have a few scares and you may have to change your pants but you will get ahead, don't worry, the Lord will be with you, the Lord will bless you, God will supply you, and the Church is so important that you understand this.

And Sister Vanessa spoke a Word on Wednesday the 31st. I think that all the Words that were given were very blessed and very accurate, but she spoke about how God has given us a complex Congregation and that we have to live up to the complexity of that Congregation. God has not made us a simple Church and glory to God for the churches that are simple and small, and not very complex because in the Kingdom of the Lord there is everything, all the nutrients are needed, but God has given this Church a lot responsibility and a very big and very high calling.

And I have told you brothers that if you are involved in this Church, if you have come to this Church you have to tighten your seat belt, you know? If you get upset and offended when money is asked for a construction cause or to undertake something, this is not the place for you, because here everything that, as the sister said, you prophesied very well Carolina, that convinces me because you don't know the miracles that have to be done here every day to cover the expenses of this Congregation, everything. People think that we are swimming in money, you see this big building here and beautiful and all the properties, you don't know that we always receive less in Sunday income than we spend, you don't know all, sometimes the anxieties that one it happens, but I don't know how God makes things work out, he multiplies the loaves and fishes in an incredible way.

But you know what? I have told the Lord: we cannot continue living doing feats in public but sometimes with lack and financial deficiencies. And there's a noise here, I don't know if it's a little dwarf that's jumping around here, but if they can fix it, I don't know what it is, a sound over there.

But brothers: there are so many things that God has called us to do, to be and to do, he has gifted us, he has called us and we have to live up to that call, God needs a people who serve. For example: we did not request to have the Governor's inaugural service here, that one day some people came and said: look, we want to see your building because this event is going to take place and they have recommended that it take place here, they entered, they saw the beauty of this place and they said: we would love to do it here; nobody went there and said: hey, here we are, come and have the service here. And you know all the work that it has required, the meetings and the big responsibilities that it implies and all the other things?

Because God has called this Church to do certain things. One is scared and then says: Lord, how did I get into this? If you are part of this army, of this complex and demanding Congregation, you have to live up to that level, you have to grow and serve the Lord. That's why when I tell them: look, come on Wednesday. If what you want on Wednesday is to lick your wounds and see the latest soap opera that is dating someone on the phone, then you will feel bad about that invitation, but it is needed at this time.

You are part of an army, you are part of a call, you are part of a Congregation that something is always happening, when you think you can go to bed they tell you: no, you still have a long way to go and to continue pa' lante, I need you to put your clothes back on and continue serving. You have to serve, you have to give because this is a place that has generated a lot, for a long time, all the ministries we have, all these things that God has given us, there is a cost behind it, it is a large Congregation, there are thousands of people who in one way or another consider this place their Congregation, do not come every Sunday.

But when someone wants to get married in the city or we want us to bury a dead body for them, this is where brothers come, or that we present them with a baby or that we give them marriage counselling, glory to God, it is a blessing, but it is a very big demand. that there is, all the social services and all the things that we do that are a testimony for this city, this is for the glory of the Lord. And if there isn't a strong people behind all that, then what we have is a handful of people carrying all the load, themselves and the people believing that it is something bigger than it is when there are a few giants there carrying everything, and that is not is; God wants the burden to be distributed, you understand? you are a pillar, a column of this instrument that God has chosen.

And that's why it takes people who have a vision, who have the heart of warriors, do you understand? let them say: ah is there a need? I'm there, let's go ahead, I say: amen, what is needed? that they are part of the solution, not part of those who complain, "no, that this, that that, that a lot is asked for" no. Be part of the solution. Be a warrior, a servant of the Lord. God has allowed him to serve through this Congregation and for this reason he needs people who serve, people who give and people who prepare for the Word.

Because when the Word gets into your life, the Word impregnates you, the Word becomes something alive inside of you that pushes you to do works. The Word cannot live within you without you ceasing to bear fruit, you know? that is why you must be like a sausage, put the Word in and that sausage will taste very good, put the Word inside of you and that Word will explode and do things. Study the Word of the Lord, read the Word, fill yourself with the principles of the Kingdom of God, live in the values of the Kingdom of God and be a generator of solutions, give to the Lord, serve the Lord.

Don't worry so much about how many hours you slept last night. There are many times that we have an excess of sleep and that is why we are sleepy because we sleep too much, sleep less and you will have more vitality. Eat less and you will be stronger, serve more and you will have more rest, give more and you will have more abundance, says the Lord. Give to others and God will not get tired of blessing you and giving to you because he who gives receives says the Word of the Lord. That is the key to a fruitful and powerful life.

So you have to prepare yourself, know the Word of the Lord, move in faith. There are times when one arrives, don't worry about that sound, I've lived with it for half an hour anyway, so it's okay, brothers: there are times when one arrives at Church and is tired, but you know what? one arrives, God puts energy in one and one forgets about tiredness. Come to Church on Wednesdays as Carolina said, come on Sundays. Many people stay, they see the window, they see that four little glasses of nine are falling and the sheet is already sticking to them like a skin around them, they say: oh I'm not going this Sunday, I'll go next Sunday.

Is it raining next Sunday? ah it's raining, I'm not going. The other one is a little sad: oh no I feel a little depressed, the other one goes and they come to Church three, four times a year. Brother: serve the Lord, live the life of faith, impregnate yourself with the spiritual atmosphere, present yourself to the House of God, bow your head before the Creator, pay your respects before the Lord, be disciplined in the way you serve God Don't worry, how do I feel?

When you arrive at the Church then ask yourself how you feel and then tell him: Lord, renew me now. The Bible says that he who watches time a lot does not sow, look for it now in Ecclesiastes. If you worry too much about time or if the thing is so good to serve or give to the Lord, you will never serve or give, listen to the Word of God, obey and you will see that the world is reconfigured in your favor , live at that level, because the call of God, what I tell you is that.

God has great blessings for your life, a great blessing, a great endowment but: Look, I command you to make an effort and be brave. God has a great calling and a great blessing for this Church, great purposes, he has endowed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places, but there is a condition for this to become real, and that is that we have to serve, give, prepare, and the rest. is to sanctify ourselves, we must sanctify ourselves. I tell myself: we have to give ourselves to the Lord so that God purifies us and sanctifies us, you know? if we do not sanctify ourselves.

And to be sanctified means many things, among which is to consecrate oneself. To consecrate oneself means that my body and mind do not lend themselves to anything other than serving the Lord, I am dedicated to the Lord. The Word of the Lord says: "If you select the precious from the vile, you will be like my mouth", "convert them to you and not you to them" says the Word of the Lord.

We have to sanctify ourselves brothers, we have to stop playing with God. God knows when a man or a woman closes her heart towards Him and decides, you know what? I am going to walk according to the values of the Kingdom of God, and there is a lot to fight for, brothers, I tell you from experience, to live in the Will of God there are many things that must be overcome and we have not overcome them all, but I know what that God calls us, and God is not going to use impure vessels and double-minded vessels.

I love those people who give themselves to the Lord and one knows how, one hears the little stone fall. To you, for example, Tulio, I tell you: I have seen the change in your life and I hope you never fall from that height where you are right now. Since that Wednesday when we prayed for you and for your life and we have seen how you have given yourself up to seek the Lord, and one can see it in your face. I love seeing those people that you know something happened, they were crucified, now stay at that level, never give up from there and God will use you greatly, but how nice it is to see a man, a woman when they give themselves up.

These brothers there, it's Francisco, I always forget your name brother, the baseball player, is it Francisco right? and his wife. The same thing again: when we see people that somehow God has impacted them and I'm not saying it to praise him or anything, I'm saying it so that they have a healthy fear of God, don't get off there because as time goes by what What happens is that one kind of loses the edge, the intensity of that first love wanes and one has to gradually renew it day by day because if you don't forget it, one falls asleep and falls asleep, and loses the blessing.

When you feel that in your life the commitment, the sanctification is declining, time to pray, fast, read the Word and take a day to be with God, and charge the batteries, because we always have to be at the same height and that is a thing from day to day, it is like the athlete. If you stop running or exercising for three or four days, you are useless. You have to do it continuously until you die. Strive and be brave.

León de Judá, with this I finish, I ask the musicians to come here. God has blessed you with all spiritual blessings, he has blessed you at the personal level, at the family level, as a housewife, mother, father, head of the household, servant of the Lord, your finances, your health, your future life, your fatherhood, God has blessed you with every spiritual blessing.

Lion of Judah: God has blessed you with a calling, he has blessed you with an influence, he has blessed you with spiritual gifts that you will see manifested. He has blessed you with a supernatural manifestation, he has blessed you with a prophetic presence in the city, he has blessed you with a benevolent influence to save lives, to raise up fallen people, to evangelize, to decapitate giants, to bring down principalities and powers, he has Authority has been placed in your hands, the key to the city has been placed in your hands, but see that the Lord commands you to strive and be brave.

God doesn't want one highly developed bunch of people and another bunch of tadpoles just crawling around there, God wants us to be even, we're all on the same level and we're all developing to the same level, we're all taking, grabbing hold of the supply and the blessing of the Lord.

I read to you now to finish a Word from Luke chapter 12, says the Word of the Lord after Christ told a parable in 35 to 40 about "Blessed are those servants whom their master finds watching when he comes" and says that "of Truly I tell you, he himself will gird himself and make them sit at the table, and he himself will come to serve them" those servants who have been watching and have lived up to God's call.

But then there is an interesting part and I am going to read it to you, and I am going to throw it on your spirit, in verse 41, Luke 12 says that: "Then Peter said to him" right? always nosy Peter asking him questions, "are you telling this parable to us or also to everyone?" that is an interesting word because there are many people who receive this Word and say: well, that Word is for others, that is not for me, and they do like this and put on an umbrella so that nothing falls on them, this is not for one , that is not for those who are here, "is this for everyone or only for us?" And the Lord said to them, "Who is the faithful and prudent steward whom your lord will put over his house so that he may give them their portion on time?"

"Blessed is that servant whom his master finds doing so when he comes. Truly I tell you, he will put him over all his possessions. But if that servant says in his heart: oh my lord, he is slow to come" like many of us: that Yiye Ávila already said that Christ is coming and he died, and the Lord has not yet come, and we lose heart, we become professional evangelicals with an evangelical card but we do not live as evangelicals.

"But if that servant says in his heart: My lord is slow to come, and begins to beat the male and female servants, and to eat, and to drink, and to get drunk, the lord of that servant will come on the day that he does not expect and at the an hour that he does not know, and he will punish him severely, and he will put him with the infidels."

The Lord tells you and me: that servant who, knowing the Will of His Lord, did not prepare or do according to His Will will receive many lashes. There are many of us who are experiencing trials and difficulties, because trials come for many reasons as you know, but there are many of us who have not been blessed and provided by God because we are like this servant who is indolent. The promises come, the prophecies come and we are broken sacks that the Word falls and we do not treasure it, we do not take it seriously, and we do not live it, and for this reason we receive so many lashes. It is like what it says in First Corinthians chapter 11 that many are sick and sleep because they do not discern the body of the Lord, because God has not changed the way he operates, you know?

When you don't do your part, when God gives and gives and gives, and you simply waste what God is giving you, the Lord whips you, disciplines you, because God disciplines the one you love. If you want to live in the provision, blessing, promise of God, do your part, give to the Lord, serve the Lord, receive, do not be a broken sack, be a good soil that receives God's seed and bears fruit in abundance.

Many of us are professional evangelicals. We come to Church because we are not Catholic and so what else is left for us? I come to the evangelical Church but not because our hearts have been sealed by the fire of God and God is tired, fed up with lukewarm people, lukewarm people nauseate the Lord. Stop being a manganson and serve the Lord, love him with all your might. Either enter fully or leave, do not play. If you are going to play, bet everything on the Lord, give it all away, if I perish, let me perish, tell the Lord.

"That servant who knowing the Will of his Lord and did not prepare himself will receive many lashes, but the one who without knowing it did things worthy of a lash will be lashed little" and I leave you with this "because to everyone to whom much has been given" and God has given you much and has given much to this Church, and has promised you much, and has blessed you much with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places, and you receive good Word and good teaching, and good examples, and good provision, do not complain that you do not know, you have not listened to the warning and the Word of God, do not complain, you have received.

"And to whom much has been given, much will be required" much will be required. Don't allow the Word of the Lord to fall on you day after day and that Word run off like good seed and into the gutter, that's a terrible waste. He who wastes the life of God God kills him, that's why he killed Onan when he threw the seed on the ground instead of giving life through it, because God hates the one who receives life and does not transfer it.

So if you are receiving the Word of the Lord, that Word either judges you or blesses you, one of the two, or it cuts off your head or impregnates you, but it is not neutral, the Word of God never stops doing what God tells it to do. order me to do Be a good land, give, receive, serve, surrender to the Lord, take care of His House, serve His House, His Kingdom. "From everyone to whom much has been given, much will be required, and from whom much has been entrusted, more will be asked."

Enter this year filled with God's blessing and promise but also with a sense of holy responsibility that God expects you and I to live up to the calling we have received. We have to behave, says the apostle Paul, according to the Gospel that has been delivered to us. Behave like a servant of God, behave like a prince of the Church of Jesus Christ.

Lower your head, receive this solemn call from God who tells you: I have blessed you with every spiritual blessing, I have given you everything you need for the journey, I have impregnated you with My blessing, I have placed My genetic code within you, but see that I command you to strive and be brave, do not fear or dismay, I will be with you wherever you go and this Word never leaves your mouth, never stop doing the things that I I've sent. Take care to do according to all the law that my servant Moses commanded you, do not turn from it to the right or to the left so that you may prosper in all the things you undertake.

"This book of the law will never depart from your mouth, but you will meditate on it day and night so that you will do according to everything that is written in it, because then you will make your way prosperous and everything will turn out well for you. See that you I command you to strive and be brave, do not fear or dismay, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."

When you live in the Word then you will be prosperous in all your ways and I declare that God's blessing on your life and that sacred responsibility, and I commend you to the height of the sublime calling that you have received. Receive it in the Name of Jesus, say amen there in your inner being and get pregnant with that Word of God, Lord I receive that Word with fear and trembling and I treasure it within my being and I ask you not to leave me, do not let us fall from that height Father, we deliver that Word to You that You have entrusted to us Lord and we bless You God, we thank You, we praise Your Name Lord, thank You Father, thank You Lord, thank You, thank You Lord Jesus.
