word to say about the app Well we said

at the beginning when God good morning

everybody you're welcome in Jesus name

Look our heart our purpose the reason

why we are here is for our spiritual

growth

We are so grateful to God for the life

of discipline we have learned from

prophet Joshua while we under him

disciple of Christ Sometime we say

disciple of prophet Joshua but he in his

heart we are disciple of Christ why he

want us to embrace God's kind of

lifestyle And I realized that

today what a grace to have lived with

him for 19 to 20 years receiving

discipline of the spirit

I'm telling you my brothers and

sisters we look at the world today a lot

of experience we had today that we

realize that the common problem we all

face all over the world particularly

believers is nothing else but the

character of Christ how to handle

situation how to settle your relation

with God on the solid foundation of his

word by trusting his word how to come to

spiritual maturity because he was a

matured manm M no matter the persecution

where people said they never derail him

from his focus in God when you look at

the life of the apostles of old it

wasn't easy for them they face acts

8:9 terrible persecutions but they

stayed in faith

unwavering Jesus you know next week we

are celebrating Easter

right we should not forget that Easter

was a moment of suffering uffering where

Jesus willingly chose the way of

suffering of the cross not for himself

but for you and

I It wasn't man's way It was God's way

That's the way God's wisdom brought

salvation on the earth to be redeemed

from our past so we can walk in newness

of life in a new covenant of God's grace

The question

is why today when you look all around

the world you see many faith are in

crisis

You see people the faith is no longer

strong Some say ah I'm losing my faith

My faith is challenged and lot of

complain we have about situations lot of

discouragement We can see that people

the fire is no longer there People are

lukewarm They they don't pray But this

is time to be stronger than ever before

What's the cause of that That's the

purpose of this program today And the

purpose of the app as well And the

purpose of the app is to walk on a daily

basis to know how to tackle every

situation of your life because life is

all about

relationship Relationship with God but

relationship in the

community It starts husband and wife

your marriage your parents your friends

your work It's all about relationship

It's all about communication The

question how do we relate with people

How do we relate in our business place

in our working place reflecting Christ

character in us in a victorious way

That's the purpose of this

app That's to grow

spiritually Remember what we said at the

first program that God create you and I

we all know it now Spirit

Soul and body You all know the body We

we become imbrio in our mother's womb

But see how big we are today Function of

time We never do anything We grow as the

tree is growing By the function of time

as time grows

on in our soul in our intellect We grow

by what we learn We learn at school

primary school secondary school Some go

to university You learn in the community

Life is a learning

experience But what about our

spirit How do we grow in the spirit We

grow physically We grow intellectually

by what we learn But how do we grow

physically The only way we can grow

spiritually is by obedience to God

Obedience to God's word That's the only

way Now that's why we are here today

This app on this program is to help

you to practice the presence of God in

your daily basis in a practical way

because you know as well it's also so

useful to have our own platform because

when we have our own platform it means

that we're not restricted in any way um

in what God directs us to say to you So

we can have um one-on-one interactions

with you and and as God put in our heart

we can we can interact with you and that

is what God has put in our heart to to

disciple people to build people with

everything that we've learned during our

journey of uh disciplehip like Rasin

said we're disciples of Jesus under the

ministry of prophet TB Joshua while he

was alive on this earth and that's why

we we want to encourage you to really

become a member of the household of

faith because it's an opportunity for

you to go deeper in your walk walk with

God And if you believe this ministry is

sent to you we see so many people saying

"Oh the Bible teaching is so interesting

It's so good." You know this is what you

need Because what we want to talk about

today is actually how can we be renewed

in our

mind Many of us we live our life as if

we're not living a a victorious life

What do I mean We we we we say we're

Christians We say we believe in Jesus

but we seem to be so consumed with the

natural circumstances around us

that things like fear worry anxiety

control us on a daily basis That is

because we have to renew our mind each

day I want to take us to Romans Romans

12:2 And do not be conformed to this

world but be transformed by the renewing

of your mind that you may prove what is

that good and acceptable and perfect

will of God So why are we talking about

this Because all of us want to know

God's will for our life All of us want

to know how do I know what God wants me

to do on a daily basis How can the Holy

Spirit speak to me And the Holy Spirit

can only speak to you when your mind is

renewed because the Holy Spirit never

bypasses the mind The Holy Spirit speaks

to our mind That's right Speaks to our

heart We learned about the spirit soul

and body last week and I'm sure we'll go

into that again today But we can't

ignore the mind The mind must be renewed

in order to be renewed like our spirit

is renewed When we read the word of God

our spirit is refreshed Our mind is

renewed Remember when we accept Jesus as

our Lord and Savior our spirit is born

again but we need to make sure our mind

is renewed daily And that is why we're

here at the University of God That is

why we're here to seek the spirit of God

We're all students I want to add

something to what she says because we

are getting to the heart of the matter

And I just took my Bible in the book of

Exodus chapter 16 Yesterday you know we

are in a time of prayer and meditation

preparing for the Easter to come It's a

time of sober reflection for every

Christian My mind was

struck by the behavior of the people of

Israel in the

wilderness They have seen the mightiness

of God in the land of Egypt when they

saw how

God did signs and wonders miraculous

signs and wonders to set them free They

have seen the Red Sea opened by God They

have seen the pillar of cloud by day

which was representing the presence of

the angel and they saw the pillar of

fire by night the living presence of God

they saw it

physically But after they left the land

of bondage of

servitude God took them in the journey

in the wilderness for a

purpose What was the purpose We realize

that it does not take long for God to

set us free from trouble one second

But it take years a lifetime for God to

change our behavior our character and to

change our mind

Let me read Exodus chapter 16 verse two

The whole congregation of the children

of Israel complained against Moses and

Aaron in the wilderness

Three The children of Israel said to

them "Oh that we had died by the hand of

the Lord in the land of

Egypt when we sat by the pots of meat

and when we ate bread to the fool for

you have brought us out into the

wilderness to kill this assembly with

hunger." That's a complain I asked

myself why they complain We realize that

the Bible says what happened to them at

that time is a lesson to all of us here

There is a

parallel between the way God rescued

them in Egypt God took them to the

wilderness and the way we experience God

when we are

saved in the Easter night In one night

God stroke all the firstborn of Egypt to

the animals and Pharaoh was shocked and

they sent them away immediately They

released him and they were free from 430

years of bondage and they and they were

free They're supposed to be happy They

saw the goodness of God the greatness of

God in their lives And what happened in

the wilderness God put them to the test

God allowed them to go through the

wilderness for a purpose When you read

your Bible the Bible says God could have

make them pass by the way of the

Philistine which is shorter But God say

no because they will see war If they see

war they will be afraid and they will

run back to Egypt Does it mean God is

not great enough to take them

there That means

simply once we are saved once Jesus

comes into our heart we have the Holy

Spirit Our spirit is free indeed We have

a new conscience We have a new heart set

free and much more We have the presence

of the Holy Spirit abiding in our hearts

Ephesians 3:13 says "Christ dwells in

our heart through faith." So God is with

me So now the question

is we are made right with God in our

spirit That's part that is new We are a

new creation a new heart a new spirit

But this

body this soul this old man is still

there M so there is a conflict between

this old man and a conflict between the

one that is new inside of

me What does it mean This means my the

way I'm I was educated my family

background my culture my tradition and

the lessons I of life my education all

these frame my intellectually So I grow

physically but I grow intellectually

mentally by the lesson for my culture

from universe that form me me talking my

decision my action in the natural but

that does not fit the way of God because

God's ways are not our ways his thoughts

are not our thoughts Isaiah 55 from

verse 1

to8 so now we have Christ in

us what about our relationship in our

family in your marriage in your friends

in your community in your work Where is

Jesus The problem we have is that we

lack consciousness of God's presence in

those

areas Salvation is not just basically a

spiritual rebirth It has to affect my

soul my mind my body and my character

Every area of our life every areas of my

life M now when you see in the book of

act chapter 2 the first disciples of

Jesus after the outpouring of the Holy

Spirit they went they sold their

businesses stop everything their houses

and were living in community why they

were serving God with all their

lives spirit soul and body

why because Christianity is a lifestyle

they serve God not just in spirit by

going to

But in their daily living all their

lives were serving God That's why they

call them disciples of Christ mean they

embrace Christ lifestyle to think like

Jesus to speak like Jesus to act like

Jesus and to manifest Christ likeness in

their community in their relationship in

a physical form right into the world

where we are And it's impossible to do

that without the help of the Holy Spirit

Impossible Why it is impossible Because

man's way are not God's way The way I I

where I come from okay I'm from Africa

you're from UK right We have a lot of

differences It is natural It is normal

to have differences in life But what

makes us one is Christ philosophy What

makes us one is faith I'm talking to

people all all over the world We have

different upbringing but what makes us

born today is Jesus

That reminds me of what Prophet TB

Joshua said when we were disciples He

said "You're not here for any culture

African culture Nigerian culture We're

all here for Christ culture." And that

is what we're here for to learn how to

be like Jesus And it was such an amazing

opportunity to be with people from so

many different backgrounds and so many

different cultures and upbringings but

at the same time our purpose was to

embrace Christ culture And I think the

temptation many many people face today

is to reduce Christianity to a to a code

of ethics Oh to be a good person or to

have some moral value in certain ways

But actually it's to be like Jesus And

we can't remove the Holy Spirit from

that because Jesus promised us the Holy

Spirit would be the comforter to be with

us forever can't obey the written word

or do what Jesus commands us to

do fleshly humanly without the help of

the Holy Spirit We cannot be a disciple

of Jesus without the help of the Holy

Spirit This coming now why God gave us

his spirit We have to repeat and go back

to the

foundation We are too conditioned to

limit the Holy Ghost only to power

healing power prophetic power the gift

of the spirit

But the major theme the major purpose

God Almighty gave you and I his spirit

is to make us sons and daughters of God

And the purpose of the Holy Spirit in

our heart is to develop righteousness

godly character

The fruit of the

spirit

means I don't need to say I'm a

Christian

Let the goodness of God be evident be

seen in the way I speak in the way I

talk in the way I relate with people

People should see something different in

you even in your working place People

should see your kindness the way you

approach things the wisdom of God That's

what God want in your life So how is it

now We are so conditioned to think that

God holy spirit is not only is only for

power for for healing power No it's for

godly character He's our helper That's

why Jesus gave us his spirit

Christianity

is a lifestyle

Faith is a lifestyle of trusting in God

Faith cannot take a day

off A break in faith is a break in

Christ

God want to be with me He want to be

with you every single day But sometime

we hold his hands ourselves

When God led them into the wilderness

God wanted to show them how faithful he

is No man would take you in the

wilderness But God is

sufficient He knew he was able to care

for them to protect them to give them

mana to make water to come from a rock

Exodus 17 If God is able to be with you

in the wilderness how much more when you

are in the town

what God wanted to do is to take them to

a process to discipline

them so they can their mind their way of

thinking will change Their way of

talking will change What is thinking and

and words That is faith

We believe and we speak the word of

faith all the time But faith does not

just happen It is built How can faith

grow We need to grow spiritually We grow

spiritually when we hear and obey God

That's what God wanted That's why in

Deuteronomy 8 verse 1 to2 1 1-4 God say

I make them pass by the wilderness and I

cause you to suffer hunger and thirst to

teach you that man shall not live by

bread alone but every word that comes

from the mouth of the Lord And that is

where the issue is number one for them

And for us today Exodus chapter 15 verse

26 hear what God

says If you diligently heed the voice of

the Lord your God and do what is right

oh my Lord that is the key And do what

is right that means act on the word

This is the problem we have today Yeah

If you diligently heed the voice of the

Lord and do what is right in his

sight This is where the issue is in our

spirit in our conscious We hear the

inner voice of God telling us do this do

that inspiration come But when the mind

is not renewed no it's me it's not God

We refuse to act on it We refuse to act

on it Suggestion is coming intuition is

coming from the Holy Spirit who dwells

in our

heart because they were having the

pillar of cloud We have more than the

pillar of cloud of the Israelite We have

holy spirit in our heart

The spirit of God will tell you wake up

and pray in the night This body

know the Holy Ghost will shake you into

positive action but we resist because

our mind is not renewed We think it is

us It's our own mind It's our own body

That's why we resist

No If God's power can set them free in

one

night God it took 40 years in the

wilderness for God to change their mind

and character

and many of them refuse to believe and

fall into the

wilderness We have the spirit of Jesus

in our

heart But why it is why do we find

people complaining today Because our

mind is not renewed Because our mind is

not renewed We continue like Jesus

rebuked Peter to think like man think to

speak in the old way in the old nature

The Bible say when you are saved never

you think speak or act on the level of

the old life Write that down The minute

you are saved that you receive salvation

from Jesus Never think or talk or act on

the level of your old life That is

that's where the problem is Change your

thoughts and change your words Change

your thought and change your words

Now if I speak in the old nature myself

is talking Ah you I will deal with you I

would do this It's the first talking is

flesh is talking That's why prophet gave

us a prayer Holy spirit take more of me

Give me more of

you when I'm too much of myself

I the one talking It's the soul myself

my mind my will my decision my emotion

is talking

And we air away from God's way And the

flesh will lead us and we begin to act

out of character The question is why our

mind is so disturbed by the things we

see we hear And that is the issue When

God led them in the wilderness they were

thirsty God did it on purpose

Instead of praying God give us water

they

complained Instead of praying to God you

complain to

man God is faithful He knows your

need So in the wilderness anytime they

face situations on the outside they

begin to murmur They want you to stone

mothers to death because of natural

circumstances of life

Today when we are born again we have a

new spirit We have a new soul We have

the Holy Spirit dwelling in us But now

why it is difficult to change my mind

Because my willingness is required by

God Thank you That's the difficulty God

is

finding God demands your faith Uncomp

uncompromising demand for faith That's

how it the uncompromising demand for

faith What they say God wants your

willingness

That's the greatest role you can play If

you are willing to get out of your

problem if you're willing to change your

life if you're willing to really meet

Jesus then the half the job is half done

because Jesus is always willing to meet

you to change you to get you out of your

problem But you have to be willing first

Remember the people that Jesus met where

he asked them "Do you want to get well

Do you want to be free?" Because Jesus

had the power to be able to set them

free immediately but he wanted to hear

their willingness not just from their

mouth but from their heart Remember it's

a heart that Jesus hears Is your heart

willing this morning Is your heart

willing today to get out of your old

life and start living how Jesus wants

you to live Because if your heart is

willing then the job is half done Yes

50% of the battle 50% of the victory We

need to learn the ways of God

Knowing God is not only to see miracles

signs and wonders but to learn his ways

The book of Psalm

103:7 says "God showed his deeds to the

children of Israel

but he showed his ways to

Moses." And that was the big difference

Moses knew the way of the Lord but the

people did not know the way of God

despite all the miracle they saw

When situation happens if you follow the

narrow way of Jesus you will not act on

the situation you will inquire from God

to know Lord what is your mind What is

God's mind on this matter

Isaiah Ruth can you read Isaiah 55 verse

8 We need to learn the way of the Holy

Spirit God has given us the Holy Spirit

We need to develop our relationship with

him We need to cooperate with him

because he wants our

willingness Holy Spirit works with us in

cooperation

Means my will must submit to God's will

before the power of the Holy Ghost is

manifested I

repeat my will your will must submit to

God's will before the power of God can

be manifested to change your

circumstances Let's read Mhm For my

thoughts are not your thoughts nor are

your ways my ways says the Lord For as

the heavens are higher than the earth so

my ways higher than your ways are my

thoughts than your thoughts God say his

thoughts are higher than our thoughts M

when I have thoughts of discouragement

the end has come God say the end has not

come It's just the beginning You say "Oh

it's it's terrible We can't do this We

can't because of your thoughts." God say

"Yes you can do it." That's why he said

to everybody in Jeremiah

29:11 "The thoughts that I have for you

is to prosper you not to harm you to

give you a hope and a future."

Absolutely We need to know the divine

person of the Holy Spirit leading us

When we say disciple we are disciples of

the Holy Spirit

He is the shepherd that leads us today

Jesus said "My sheep shall hear my

voice." John chapter 10 27 Jesus does in

my heart through the person of the Holy

Spirit We should be able to hear the

voice of the Holy Spirit in our heart

We it is time to learn to distinguish

how he speaks to us Whether in thoughts

intimation suggestion or words or dreams

We need to know How do we know It is

possible to know The only way to know is

to yield your heart to

him What do I mean by that That's why

meditation

When trouble come situation come after

you pray go to the secret place of your

heart and begin to meditate

ask the Holy Spirit to help you Ask God

to open the eyes of your faith Begin to

look for him Seek him in your heart

diligently

and then the way he answers you he will

give you a thought can come to your

conscious to your mind if your conscious

is alert Okay Now let me come back to

that graphic a bit So to to make it more

God say he made me with a

spirit This is soul This is

you and this is your physical body Three

parts God gave us right We have seen

this one grow in time This one grow when

you when you study this one But this one

can only

grow when you hear the Holy Spirit here

in your heart in the spirit The question

we have today is this section of our

lives Let me move down

gently Good

Yes Now we are here

Okay This is your

body This one Go

ahead This is your natural human body We

all have And this is the one that is

relationship with the world Who Your

father your mom your friends your work

and everything you do in relationship

here in the world This our

responsibility The question we have we

tend to forget that faith God we are

conditioned to think God is not

interested by this one and that's a big

mistake The Bible says this is our

relationship with God Is this our

relationship with man This is

responsibility towards God in the

spirit and this is in the

natural in the world this side And this

now we have a separation between the two

This is this side is your spiritual side

Your spirit and your soul This part is

your

body Now the question is here is the

trouble we face We always separate in

our mind in our in this thinking You

think that God is not concerned about

this It's a big

mistake God is concerned about this This

section

here is your belief in God You believe

in God This is your conscience This is

the spirit of God Holy Spirit speak to

you here and give you inspiration give

you revelation So when you are praying

because you have situation

here when you pray in your heart without

making any noise something will prompt

your mind here your conscience This is

your

conscience This is where the will of God

is This is where the mind of God is This

is where solution comes But if you look

at the natural we forget this

So what did God did to help them in the

wilderness God allow the physical

presence of the cloud to give them focus

in God When they look at the cloud ah

God is here Oh not afraid In the night

they saw the light God is here in our

midst So they were looking visibly at

the presence of God So they would not be

afraid They focus with that But today as

Christian we can't do that anymore We

have the Holy Spirit here in our heart

We have our conscious with the

communication point contact point We

have to learn to listen to the inner

voice here in our

heart Now here this section now is where

we have

problem

physically our soul This is our mind

This is our decision This is our

will Our emotions Everything is

here emotions And this one is influenced

by this one

When they were in the wilderness they

were

thirsty and their mind begin to think

wrongly Anytime your mind here think

negatively you are out of faith Anytime

your mind think negatively based on

circumstances you get out of faith Why

Because you begin to doubt the goodness

of God here Whatever God says here this

one contradict it Anytime something good

come from your conscious revelation

something contrary come to your mind to

say no that's why Satan did if God say

oh go to America a voice say no don't go

it's you go say do this a voice say no

is it from God contradiction so there's

a battle between revelation here and

sense knowledge here which one do you

follow we have this is our trouble this

is our greatest enemy

The mind the mind and the thinking

My god we exercise our will through our

mind This mind is the one that controls

our body through the

brain Okay we talk We saw an advert Very

nice food H Ruth I want to eat this food

Let's go and buy it Is this mind Okay

give thanks to God While I'm driving I

keep meditating listen to wisdom and

meditate as I'm driving to go to my work

I'm going with God When I come I greet

my colleague I give everybody I s I ask

God to give me wisdom how to handle

situation my job mean in my heart When

I'm talking to people in the natural

this one is another channel in your

spirit Nobody knows you are praying

Whatever task you face in your office do

you pray Do you pray for your boss in

your heart Do you pray for the company

Do you pray for God to give you wisdom

How to handle this meeting How to handle

your decision Because you are the

manager how to handle human being You

pray When you pray you involve God and

you'll be surprised to see what God will

do

You can see you can involve God in every

section of your life That's what renew

your mind You have an effort to pay Your

willingness is there You have to

practice the presence of God in a

practical way deep inside of you in your

heart the consciousness of God the

presence of God Anywhere you

go if you do that your mind will never

be disconnected from the things of God

If my heart by meditating and my mind

are soaked with the word of God I will

speak the word of word of life here I

will speak right and act right because I

think right That's why the first thought

in the morning and the last one before

you sleep is so important because we're

going on a journey and we're coming from

a journey Um when we when we sleep we're

going on a journey So that is why what

you do before sleeping is so important

What you think in the same way the

thought when you wake up is very

important That's why like Rasine said

you know you're going to be connected to

the presence of God if you make sure

those first thoughts and those last

thoughts are all about Jesus Your

thoughts are the seed of your life

Your thoughts are the seed of your life

Your

life will always go to the level of your

thoughts

Your

belief depends on the level of your

thoughts If you meditate on God's word

it develops in your heart and belief

increases deep inside of you If you

speak the word of faith your faith

increases That's why the Bible says the

if you think negatively you are bound to

talk negatively Out of the abundance of

your heart of your thinking the mouth

will speak So what you have to do now

the first battle we have if you must do

anything think

first before you act on what you see

before you act on what you hear pray in

your heart for God's intervention Go to

your father Involve God in prayer in

your heart When you have God ability

will come from God Jesus will walk you

through all the circumstances of life So

now how do I discipline myself to think

right How can I think positively Ruth

I'm asking you

How can I think right The only way you

can train yourself to think right is by

reading and meditating on the word of

God Because it's like we've talked about

this before When you're drinking water

the water has to go down When you're

drinking water it can't come up again It

it's going down in your throat and it

will go through your body where where it

needs to go But you have to drink that

water first In the same way when you

read the word of God for salvation's

sake and you meditate on that word then

the word will affect your words and

affect your thoughts because it it it

has nowhere else to go It's definitely

going to go to your heart It will It's

like it it's it's going to go to your

heart So disciples mean you have to

educate your mind with the word of God

You have to discipline your mind by

meditating on the word of God You have

to train yourself Train your mind Okay

The Bible says they were serving God

with their life How do you believe With

our heart this we believe God right But

with our

body we give ourself to God as a living

sacrifice That's what she was reading

This body need to be

crucified This man and body need to be

disciplined to submit to hear the

revelation of God How do we do that When

you read the Bible when you meditate on

the Bible you speak God's word over your

life When you meditate the word dominate

first here your conscience and then he

will affect your mind You will begin to

see things differently You begin to see

from God's point of view If God give you

a message and this message is a way out

and you don't hear it you cannot act on

it But Holy Spirit come if you submit to

God and that is the issue How do we

submit to God But go to your prayer room

Start by your knees Open your mouth to

God Begin to pray That's the greatest

way to submit to God That's why you pray

It's not something complicated And we

pray believing that God is absolutely

listening to us Prayer is not just

saying words into the air Yeah As you

run to man for help If you believe God

is real begin to pray Begin to pray and

meditate This is stuff Lord help me

Meditate in your heart Before you

realize it a scripture will come to your

heart When you begin to speak that

scripture Holy Ghost will begin to give

strength to your spirit to your soul and

to your body And that is the faith

you're talking about So this is belief

When revelation come revelation come

tell you this is the dream You get out

of the situation He will give you

understanding and give you conviction

You believe deep in your heart the

solution is coming God has spoken to me

And now what happen Your mind will

change because you understand the

purpose of God in the matter You will

see that God is alive He's talking to

you It's only when we understand what

God says here This mind is changed is

renewed when we understand the will of

God in our

life and get the

money Jesus took decision to go to the

cross

and Jesus said "Father if it is possible

let this cup pass by This is our minds

will not my will Let your will be done

This will exercise our own will our own

decision with our mind based on the

information we get But our prayer not my

will Let the will of God be done here

Holy Spirit help me This is why we have

the Holy Spirit here This is the Holy

Spirit When we face trial and difficult

situation God is there He never changes

He's there forever with you He will

never move one second He will never

abound one second The problem we have we

are the one that abound on

this So when God say in numbers chapter

4 enter the promised land and conquer

and they saw giant what did they say

We cannot No we cannot These are more

powerful They will destroy They're

bigger than them They begin to see the

giant bigger than God And they were

afraid because of what this mind and the

senses what they saw here They forgot

here that God was

here Jose Joshua and Kalev go and read

numbers chapter 14 God said because

Joshua have a different heart a

different mind he never forgot me He

will enter the promised land But every

person who allows circumstance to

disturb you to speak negatively against

God they never enter the promised land

Someone's asking a question I don't know

how to balance between my job and

spending more time with God Okay good

question What is his name Yeah Um Lydia

I think it's a very important thing to

address Okay Lydia I thank you for this

question This is where the problem is

Sometime we only believe that spiritual

and natural are separated And that's the

mistake we made Mhm We are on in the

spirit when we go to church Immediately

leave the church we are off We go to the

natural and we and we begin to use our

own human effort There is no separation

my dear sister That's the question What

you call balance Balance mean work as if

everything depends on you And while you

are working pray in your heart as if

everything depends on God

You sing I sing as if everything depend

on me But in my heart I pray as if

everything depends on God I include God

in my work I include God in everything I

do I ask God give me strength to work I

become a worker with a difference Yeah

that's one thing I wanted to share You

know from my experience um in all those

years of training with Prophet TB Joshua

a majority of that time a lot of that

time was spent doing different type of

work what we worked very hard and that

work it was for a purpose What I mean is

oh my god what I mean is it's not as if

we spend 24/7 you know kind

of in in deep prayer and Bible reading

and you know that work was to train our

character and also there's something he

told us you know to arrest our heart

because when you're working for God's

sake everything you do like Rasian said

you're doing it for God's sake Whatever

you do you do it well Whatever is not

done well is not done at all So whatever

you do you do it for God's sake Your

work you're doing it for God's sake The

things in the house you're doing it for

God's sake The things with your children

you're doing it for God's sake

Everything you do you do it for God's

sake to please God And in the midst of

those daily challenges that happens when

we work it's a way for the character of

Jesus to be to be seen in us It's when

your hatred is provoked that you can

respond in love It's when your

impatience is provoked that your

patience can can grow that your

endurance can grow So I just wanted to

encourage you because you know an idle

mind is a devil's workshop You know what

do I mean by that You know if if if if

you say you just want to spend your time

doing uh no work and you just want to

pray all the time you know we it's in

the midst of our challenges in life that

most some of that comes with work that

we can actually glorify God in that that

we can reflect the image of Jesus Christ

in us in community in in uh

confrontation in challenges in life

struggles and ups and downs That's when

we know we do it with Jesus We don't do

it alone I want to start with the you

say my job when before you apply for job

did you pray for God to guide you to

give you a good job to favor you If you

pray anytime I tell you the believer

when you apply for job don't just apply

send the application to me I will stand

in prayer for you So we want to do the

will of God We want to go to the right

place in the right moment We involve God

on every section of our lives Now you

are talking about balance between your

work and prayer Let me read the book of

Deuteronomy chapter 8 for you from verse

17 God

said "Do when you say in your heart my

power and my might of my hand have

gained me this wealth."

And you shall remember the Lord your God

May in your work remember God who give

you brain who give you heartbeat who

give you health to do the work you do

It's God that strengthen you If you're

intelligent who give you intelligence It

is God If you're smart who give you that

It is God When you do it without

complaining with joy you're doing it for

God No You shall remember the Lord your

God for he he is he who gives you power

to get wealth

He's the one that give you intelligence

and knowledge that he may establish his

covenant with you This is what we need

to understand There's anointing of God

for your work There's anointing for

spiritual things Anointing for your

marriage Anointing is supernatural

ability to excel to be a worker with a

difference to succeed whether you are a

lawyer lawyer there's no difference

between God and your natural things God

want to be involved in every section of

your life that is why the balance you're

talking about there's no separation

between the two as I work with all my

strength with all my knowledge

intellectual I pray for God's guidance

because sometimes you walk but tomorrow

who knows happen tomorrow Ask God to

give you wisdom

You need wisdom in your work Ask God to

give you expression to know how to

address issues at work How to be if

you're a manager you know how to talk to

people you know have idea you have

insight It's

God That is why God want you to exercise

that faith here in the outside in your

work as well because this where the

fruit of the spirit be revealed

This section between you and God here is

belief But this section is faith Faith

is expressed on the outside By faith you

show God in your working

place By faith you show God in your

marriage By faith you show God in

everything you do You show the character

of God the fruit of the spirit Can you

break that down You mentioned that from

here it's belief and this side is is

faith That's that's interesting because

it reminds me of the message where you

talked about the difference between

belief and faith Belief being the root

Okay So can you just break that down for

people Okay Let's go to Isaiah 37:31 If

I could

remember go to Isaiah

37:31 It's important to understand what

we are saying The difference between

your spiritual side and your physical

side Mhm Your spiritual side is your

relationship with God That's what we

call belief God will give you a

revelation in your heart in your spirit

Right

Yes Isaiah 37:31 Yes What does it say

And the remnant who have escaped of the

house of Judah shall again take root

downward and bear fruit upward Say it

again Take root downward And what Bear

fruit upward What does this

mean You bear fruit

downward You what You bear what You grow

downward Yeah You take root downward and

bear fruit upward Does it mean the root

of a tree are down inside the ground

Deep inside

But the fruit is that upward mean upward

outside You see the fruit This is a tree

When you see a tree when the root are

big the the tree stands If the root does

not grow the tree can fall Right M so

when faith grows downward and upward

mean faith grow inside and

outside in your heart inside is here in

your heart in your spirit deep inside of

you is belief is belief mean the Bible

say the word is in your heart and in

your mouth in your heart in your spirit

you believe God this is where you

believe God in your conscious in your

heart this is where faith belief is

belief when revelation come you

understand it and you believe with your

heart This one is between you and God It

is dominant No man can see it That's why

here you can pray in the spirit and

nobody hears you You can pray in your

office Nobody hears you It is your

spirit praying to God It is belief But

now on the

outside you express that belief on the

outside here that is faith How do we

express outside the fruit of the spirit

The quality of your soul need to change

when the holy no that's thank you we we

we touched on that briefly last week we

said it's a change not in the substance

of the soul but in the quality of the

soul can you just break that down for us

to okay for people to understand what

that means because we we we looked at

the issue of what the soul is we looked

at that last week and we talking about

wanting a change and the change is not

in the in the substance of the soul but

in the quality of the soul what does

that mean okay The Holy Spirit uses

God's word here the revelation to act

upon your soul to renew your mind to

produce the virtues of a Christian

character Absolutely So okay I'm afraid

because this this mind is affected by

situation They say you have a dead

disease Dead disease You're going to die

The mind begin to worry When the mind

begin to think negative what happened to

soul Depression here

Emotions We are worried because what we

see here But if God give you dream and

say hey you're going to be healed

tomorrow This is what Holy Ghost say you

will not die you will live If now Holy

Spirit give you understanding of this

revelation in your mind

your mind is immediately change hey I

will not die I will leave God God God

has spoken I receive a prophecy Oh my

mind is renewed What happen Peace will

take over Fear will go So it will affect

the emotions in your soul Absolutely

This mean the outrage of faith affect

your thinking your emotion your

character Mean the fruit of the spirit

begin to develop here Faith is fruit of

the spirit plus belief This is believe

Fruit of the spirit Go to Ephesians 4:22

Now you will understand better what I

said This body is our mouth Here we

confess with Jesus in the natural in the

midst of people Yes That you put off

concerning your former conduct The old

man Put off the old man Who is the old

man The enslaved the tradition the

character the intellect I had before My

way of thinking which was in the world

My way of talking which was out of faith

All this has changed I must think in

faith speak in faith and act of faith

and live in faith Go concerning your

former conduct the old man which grows

corrupt according to the deceitful lusts

And be renewed in the spirit of your

mind Be renewed in the spirit of your

mind Mean your thinking will have

changed Don't think like man think Think

like God thinks here It's not what your

situation affect your mind negatively

but what God is positive thinking

because God has spoken And that you put

on the new man You put on the new man

which was created according to God in

true righteousness and holiness Thank

you so much God give you in blue a new

spirit a new salvation But the old man

need to be renewed I put on the new man

mean my character might just change my

my my the way I talk the way I speak

must reflect my belief in Christ And

that's what it means by changing the

quality of the soul Absolutely Mean the

change Why Because the fruit of the

spirit So it's the fruit of the spirit

that will change the quality of your

soul That's called divi mean Christ

character Christ likeness divine

gentleness goodness self-control love

faith humility Absolutely People can

provoke you insult you you're speaking

gently because of the fruit of the

spirit The fruit of the we show God by

faith on the outside through the fruit

of the spirit You show that God by the

way you speak by the way you talk by you

would act that Christ is living inside

of you you have holy spirit That's why I

say by the fruit you will know them The

fruit that grow on the outside that is

visible by faith mean you speak you act

and this matches Christ likeness You

behave like a Christian You talk like a

Christian You don't seek the way people

speak You don't talk the way people talk

We see there's a difference in this man

And God we we should not only know our

belief inside of us We should show our

faith on the outside by the way we speak

because we may be the only Bible that

some people ever read When we when they

read our life they should see Jesus in

us This mean our character only our

character here on the outside can

testify that we are Christian godly

character mean salvation is once but

Christ likeness is forever

to be like Jesus it takes discipline

that's why we call disciple of the Holy

Spirit we grow in knowledge we grow in

love every single day of our lives when

you look at the life of Paul in the

beginning at the end the spirit the

fruit of the spirit begin to Bro can you

go to Galatians Galatians chapter 5

verse

23 Our mind plays a great role in

everything we do This mind the unrenewed

mind can block the revelation of God But

the fruit of the spirit is love joy

peace longsuffering kindness goodness

faithfulness gentleness self-control

Against such there is no love Let me

take one by one Joy love that No joy You

can have joy whereas there's nothing to

have joy about

Joy is a fruit of faith People are

crying That's the end That's the end God

say "My son I'm talking to you Nothing

will happen to you I'm in control Hey

thank you Jesus Thank you Jesus." Nobody

know why you say thank you God has

spoken to your heart Yeah It's not

created happiness It's real joy At the

Red Sea people look at Pharaoh Pharaoh

and the soldiers and they were

overwhelmed with fear M hey we're going

to die Moses say please be quiet this

Egyptians you see you will see them no

more why because the mind of Moses was

renewal because he knew God's purpose on

the mind deep inside his

heart when you have revelation in your

heart by the Holy Spirit Holy Ghost g

revelation here in your mind that

revelation would change everything in

your life that's why even peace Jesus

said the peace not as the world gives if

everybody tremble you are peaceful and

calm the way this man is calm

That's the peace of heart the peace of

mind the peace of conscience that Jesus

gave you And that is our inheritance

Everybody was scattered Moses was calm

calculated and

determined That's the peace of Holy

Spirit You don't act out of character

They insult you They say you are a demon

You are this You keep quiet That's what

Jesus was quiet like a dove John chapter

8 they say "Hey you are you are this You

are a demon." They said to Jesus "You

cast out demon by Belus." Jesus kept

quiet

Self continuing longsuffering What is

longsuffering Longsuffering people

continue to insult you to mistreat you

but you don't reject them Calm you

endure Endurance Yeah I think it's a

virtue that's seldom celebrated today

And it's really a virtue of the Holy

Spirit You can see it is difficult to do

this without the power of Holy Spirit

All this character of

God that we call the quality of the soul

by the power of the Holy Spirit That's

the character of Jesus Contindness

Kindness What is kindness People are

rude to you You treat me like this I I

scam You just come You treat the person

kindly You come Yeah I think kindness is

a word that's been very misused in

today's society You know we see it as

compassion and being led by feelings in

a way that's very human But actually

kindness it it takes faith to be truly

kind That means that you want the best

for other people Don't you Yes And you

actually uh Yeah You you you want to see

justice done and you want the best for

them You want them to grow with Jesus

You don't take advantage of people Mhm

goodness faithfulness gentleness

self-control

Gentleness self-control and faith That's

what I talk about by faith Faithfulness

mean no matter what happen you will

never deny Jesus You will never deny

your faith Your faith is expressed by

the fruit of the spirit So you are a

Christian They insult you You keep quiet

M Steven in the midst of life he said

father forgive them they don't know what

they doing nobody can shake you to act

after character you behave like Jesus

would have behaved that's the fruit of

the spirit that's faith not only we

believe in God we show God by the way we

behave in the midst of people that's the

fruit of the spirit the quality of your

soul being changed the holy ghost will

give you a new character with this

strength and power you begin to love

unconditionally you begin to pray for

your enemy Something is growing inside

of you that you cannot control That's

the character of God That's the gift of

righteousness Amen And it should grow

every single day So every day we're

getting older physically but are we

growing in our in our character Our

character should grow in patience grow

in love grow in wisdom all these things

That's that's what we're talking about

The change in the quality of our soul

And that is what we should aspire to as

disciples of Jesus We're on this journey

And that is what we should aspire to a

change in the quality of our soul to be

more situation will happen What do you

do Run to your father Galatians chapter

5 23 Listen to what Paul said Listen

Gentleness self-control Against such

there is no law Continue And those who

are Christs have crucified the flesh

That is it with its passions and desires

You have to crucify this flesh

How do I crucify my flesh By dominating

my senses It is not what I see that

controls me but faith controls me That

means our mind should be our servant not

our master Thank you for saying that How

can your mind be your servant Don't

allow your thought to lead you Ask the

Holy Ghost thought to lead you and your

thoughts submit to God's will That's why

we are pulling God to our mind Lord give

me food because you're hungry Lord heal

me because I'm sick Instead of bringing

oursel to God's mind Exactly By asking

God what is your will in the matter We

try and pull God to our mind That is it

So you can see that we crucify the flesh

How do we do that Let's go to Romans

chapter 8 verse 13 You can see it's the

Holy Ghost that help us to dominate our

flesh to dominate our behavior to

dominate anger not to react Jesus say if

okay your enemy wants your response If

you insult your enemy you are like him

There's no difference And believe me the

hardest thing to do is not to respond

That is it It it takes the Holy Spirit

for you to not respond when provoked

Okay Okay Romans 8 verse 13 13 For if

you live according to the flesh you will

die But if by the spirit you put to

death the deeds of the body you will

live by the spirit you put unto death

the deeds of the What does it mean With

the help of the Holy Spirit here with

the help of his strength and revelation

you refuse to act out of character

You control your body We have to control

our body and our mind It's not every

thought you follow Find out whether it's

from God or not It's not every dream you

listen to Is it from God or from your

mind Because this mind is like a

photography It will record You have

dream When your mind is too tired you

can have dream from you Don't be carried

away by what people say Inquire from God

in your heart That's why this mind has

to be the servant of your conscience

Your conscious must control your soul

and not the not your mind control your

faith That's what it means to take

captive every thought

Yes The battle we face is with our

thinking The Bible say we bring every

thought into captivity of Christ How

submission to the will of God in in in a

nutshell pray at all times That's why

the Bible say if you are in the spirit

walk in the spirit Continue

reading If you go to Galatians back

sorry I'm taking you back over By the

Holy Ghost with the strength he will

help me to behave well by the fruit of

the spirit Love begin to grow He will

help me to be self-controlled He will

help me to speak love to speak wisely If

we live in the spirit let us also walk

in the spirit Let us not become

conceited provoking one another envying

one another Mhm Brethren if a man is

overtaken in any trespass you who are

spiritual restore such a one in a spirit

of gentleness considering yourself lest

you also be tempted That's spiritual

spiritual spiritual spiritually minded

person This mind must be made spiritual

How revelation come It will refresh your

mind God's word refreshes our mind Our

mind is renewed when we understand the

will of God in the matter M that's when

we have peace when you don't know the

mind of God in the matter you are

worried you panic but if God speak to

you his mind on the matter you be quiet

Moses understood that God took them by

the Red Sea to glorify his his name by

making the miracle by opening the Red

Sea he saw it he was come but the people

did not know and they panicked that's

why when the Holy Spirit come we will

give us revelation what is revelation a

dream that give you the way out The

solution is coming God is with you Fear

not I am with you That is God for you

What do you know God is with you You

have peace Peace comes because of the

knowledge that God is with me That

you're not alone How do you know that

God is with you You listen the inner

voice of the Holy Spirit My God The day

you are in the

fire and you hear the small voice

speaking to

you Oh my Lord Last year we had a

terrible situation Everybody knows we

pray While I pray all of a sudden a

voice came to my heart I said God say

he's in control He will preserve us for

the temptation coming through all the

world I know he was God I said glory be

to God He has spoken

You need to listen to your conscience

That's the problem Don't listen to these

thoughts

Let this mind become the ser your

servant You are the spirit Don't don't

be carried away by this body

Your mind must be trained must be

educated to listen to the word of God in

your heart That's why you should examine

everything in the light of God's word We

need revelation in our heart We need

spiritual understanding of the Holy

Spirit When Paul was having the thorn in

his flesh it was painful He went to God

Lord help me help me help me Jesus kept

quiet three times and God say my grace

is sufficient for you At that moment

Paul understood that God was in control

He allowed this to happen for a purpose

and he stopped worrying His mind changed

He has peace He was calm That's why a

man of faith can be happy in the midst

of poverty because he knew this poverty

will not last long because his mind is

renewed So if you're watching today and

you realize like some people have sent

us a comment that now I know that it's

in my mind that the devil's attacking me

Remember once you identify the problem

it's half half done Because if you're

willing to get out of that problem right

now get ready because we want your mind

to be renewed I don't have time for

certain but I have to tell you his

tactics Many of the negative thoughts

you have come from him He want to block

your faith to doubt

Sin is engineered by negative thoughts

that Satan put into your mind your brain

to doubt the goodness of God in your

heart If make you things see things in a

bad light that is Satan to provoke

negative thoughts in situation or people

speak badly to you and you begin to

think about it Sometime if somebody is

is in a situation the person will just

look at the

wall and say "Hey the person jump he's

gone His mind is gone." Many times you

say it to

me sometime I look at you I say where

did you go I said where did you

travel you can be with your with your

wife and all of a sudden you look at him

he's absent you are talking said what

did I say she not able to say what you

said because the spirit was not here you

can be here your spirit can be in the

far end of the world you can see how the

mind is powerful

when the mind is overwhelmed you don't

know even where you are you can hear

nothing your focus is gone and Satan

took off your mind Don't allow this to

happen Bring your mind back Capture your

thought That's why Jesus rebuked Peter

Get behind me Satan You think like man

not like God Jesus knew the cross was a

revelation of God's will to save human

being That was the purpose of God in the

matter He went to the cross and obeyed

and submit to the will of God and be

crucified Emanuel said "I'm totally

healed by your teaching I was in pain

Now I'm in peace." You know this is the

importance of the word of God Someone

else before said that they as they were

listening to this message they were

manifesting You know it's the word of

God that heals It's the word of God that

delivers It's the word of God that saves

So when the word comes from the Holy

Spirit and goes straight into your heart

that's when changes take place Thank you

So please learn to rebuke Satan by the

word of faith Now let me give you one

one one

one clue I will give you I practice in

my life Sometimes you facing a situation

that's not easy The mind is so overtaken

by negative thoughts but you cannot read

the Bible You cannot hear anything What

do you do Take your Bible read it

loudly not silently

Loudly Why do you read loudly If you

read it loudly you capture your ear The

two powerful senses we have is this one

sight and hearing This is the one we use

99% of our relationship is sight and

hearing If I don't hear Ruth I have no

answer But I see her These one are the

most powerful one that direct our life

What we see what we hear So when you

read the Bible you capture your eyes But

this thing when you speak Jesus is Lord

you hear it here You capture your

thinking So read it loud When you read

aloud you remember what you read By

doing it loud you you are training

yourself to speak right to think right

and to act right Before you realize it

your mind is refreshed Read the Bible

aloud when you're alone and listen to

what you're reading That will help you

to first begin to discipline your mouth

and your mind and your thought And

before you realize you remember what you

are

saying There are many songs we repeat

right Because we hear the song oh Lord

we sing this afterwards The song become

spontaneous in your heart when you sleep

at night That's the same That's why God

says Joshua read the aloud They know the

secret of speaking the Bible aloud

Prophet Yeshua gave you a lesson to me

and you read slowly attentively

repeatedly What he was saying mean when

the where the the scripture is personal

insight your name where the message is

personal Where the message is personal

In the Bible say when you read your

Bible be oh my

God When you read your Bible I can say

the great majority of time God is

speaking to me through the Bible When I

read a verse the verse say I can do all

things through Christ I say I rest I can

do all things through Jesus Christ who

strengthen me Jesus is my strength and I

confess it I appropate the word in my

life I live by it You put your name and

speak it louder at the hearing of your

mind of your ears of your heart If the

word dominate your spirit it dominate

your mind Before you realize it your

mind is renewed and refreshed Amen So

make sure you write that key down The

most powerful senses are our eyes and

our ears This is what actually rules our

life So make sure when we read the Bible

we don't just read it silently We also

read it aloud Because when we read it

aloud we're training our ears to listen

to the word of God not just our eyes to

see the word of God And in that way when

we listen to the word of God audibly

it'll sink into our spirits and our

heart and would change the way we live

our life and our mind is renewed So make

sure you do that When you read aloud

you're training yourself to think right

because your mind is refreshed Your ear

is refreshed You capture your thought

You capture your word Speak only what

God says There is a mystery of speaking

the word of God to yourself loudly Amen

You attract God's presence in Jesus name

Thank you Thank you so much for joining

us on today's podcast all about renewing

the mind And we believe that your mind

has been renewed as you've been

listening with your ears to the word of

God explained by the revelation of the

Holy Spirit And also you've watched us

with your eyes as well So we believe

that everything has gone into your heart

And remember we can't understand the

word of God or obey it without the help

of the Holy Spirit So make sure you

continue to ask the Holy Spirit to help

you to take more of you and give you

more of him Jesus said if your eye

causes you to fall sin to sin Yeah Plug

it off Yeah If the hand causes to fall

cut it off What does it mean If you're

looking something encourage your faith

negative thought stop watching it That's

what it means If you're doing something

there's no good for you Stop it

If you if you're weak you got some when

your faith is weak That's what happened

to them in the wilderness because their

faith was weak They were learning to get

faith That's why they they were

murmuring every day But if you are

strong in the faith you will not murmur

You will stay put get used to the

situation and walk victoriously because

Jesus is with you Amen Amen So very soon

day the prophet was saying that a father

may have many children right some

children where he stay far someone to be

closer to know more that's our attitude

towards Jesus do you sit at the back in

the class or at the front that is it

Jesus has 12 disciples but there was one

who always put his head in the heart of

Jesus apostle John John wanted to learn

from Jesus more than anybody else and

that's why John's gospel is so full of

revelation as you can see God give him

the gospel of John the most spiritual

First John sec second and third and the

book of revelation Why Because intimacy

with God brings revelation It's so up to

you God is waiting for you If you come

to him he will reveal himself to you We

learn from him Thank you So we look
