Saved, but going to hell??

Francisco Javier Ortega teaches on Matthew 7:21 and John 14:21, arguing that saying you believe in Jesus isn't enough without genuine intimacy with God. He uses Zacchaeus as an example and challenges whether you're performing religion or actually known by God.
Chapters
Sack check, man. Welcome back to MLG Ministries. Today I. Today's gonna be an incredible episode, man. This right here rocked me. What we're going to talk about today just really rocked me. And I just want to go ahead and put this out there, that this is going to be extremely interactional. That's my goal for this. I want this to be very interactional. I want you guys to ask questions. I want you guys to drop your thoughts. In no way do I think that I know all the answers. And obviously, I'm speaking to this for, like, the people who are here live, not for, you know, the podcast. Who's going to be listening to this probably afterwards. But today we're going to be chatting about heaven. And I. I named this, right, Because I'm. I'm really good at garnishing attention sometimes. And so I named this something very specific. I named it Saved. But are you going to hell? And the reason why I named that is because something that I've noticed is that in. In. In Christianity, what we do in church services, at events, right, what we do is, you know, we. We talk about, you know, just confessing that Jesus is Lord and. And that we're going to be saved, because that's what the Bible says. And it does. That is what the Bible says. But I believe that when you confess that Jesus is Lord, I've. What I'm discovering, the more that I'm just, like, in it and experiencing it, is that there's actually so much more weight on confessing that Jesus is Lord. Like, confessing that Jesus is Lord is not just saying Jesus is Lord. Like, you could pray that prayer, but you might not actually make him Lord. Because think about this, right? We hear this, say it all the time, that if he is Lord, he is either Lord of all or he's not Lord at all. Right? Hey, what's up, Haley? Good seeing you on. On YouTube. Praise God. Also, I need to pull up my Facebook so that I can have the Facebook chat on here, because Facebook usually gets really active, too, for some reason. So I'm gonna pull that up over here on this screen. Weird hearing yourself. And so I believe that there's so much more that happens when we confess that Jesus is Lord, right? And again, I can't say this person is not saved. I can't say this person is saved. I'm only looking at myself. So if you were on the live last night, that's a little bit. What we talked about is like, dude, focus on yourself. Look within yourself. Gauge if you are operating As a son. If you are a son of God, Right? That we. We learned that in Romans 8:14. It very clearly says. It says that those that are led by the Spirit, as many as are led by the Spirit. You know, another translation, the one that I read, the Amplified classic, says that as many as are allow themselves to be led by the Spirit. Are the sons of God. Are the sons of God. And so I talked about how you can only gauge if you are a son. You can't go around looking like, hey, are they a son? Are they a son? That's why Jesus said that instead of, like, trying to pluck out, like, the. What do you call it when you get the wood, the splinter in somebody else's eye, pull out the log that is in your own eye, right? Because it's all about, focus on you, man. Focus on you. Don't try and determine, hey, is that person going to hell? Is that person going to heaven? Don't do. Don't do any of that. This conversation didn't start like that. This conversation started internally. And so I'm going to read the scripture that blew my mind, and then we're just going to kind of lean into it. And I just want you guys to know I don't have all the answers, but I want to open up a conversation. Hey, what's going on, man? I don't think like that on Twitch. Good seeing you, man. Drop your name into the chat. Drop. Drop in where you're. Where you're coming in from. So in Matthew chapter seven, Coach Frank, God bless you, brother. Hey, Stephanie, good seeing you. What are we doing today on Twitch? They're asking. What we're doing today, man, is. I'm going to talk about. You're saved, but are you going to hell? Is the topic that we're going to chat about. And we're going to highlight something really, really important here in a second that we can be able to actually, like, think about really quickly and start just processing. So in verse. In chapter 7, verse 21, here's where it gets really good. This is where it gets really good. Matthew, chapter 7, verse 21. Not everyone who says to me, lord, Lord. Okay, pause. Not everyone who confesses, Lord, not everyone who says, lord, Lord, not everyone. Jesus is saying that. So is that a contradiction? No, I believe that there's just. And it's. It's an expansion. There's just more. There's just more. Right? Hey, what's up? Darby family, Williston, North Dakota, cannot wait to be with you guys next weekend. We're gonna Blow it out. In Jesus, mighty name. In Jesus mighty name. It's going to be a huge blessing. Not everyone who says to me, lord, Lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name and driven out demons in your name and done many miracles in your name? Then I will declare to them publicly, I never knew you. Depart from me, you who act wickedly. Pause. This is what started to blow my mind. All of our life, all of our walk in Christianity, it's all about knowing God. You read your Word, right? You worship, you worship your, like, your worship music. All of them say the same things. It's like, I want to know you. I want to know you. God, I want to know you. I want to know you. And then when you're reading the Word, I'm reading this Word because I want to know you. I want to know your heart, I want to know your will. Everything that we do revolves around knowing God. Around knowing God. So this is why this scripture hit me. Isn't it interesting that Jesus said that? Then I will declare to them publicly, I never knew you. I never knew you. Please hear my heart on this. I am not saying, nor would I ever dream of saying, that it is not important to know God. I'm not saying that it's absolutely important. Hosea 4, 6. My people perish for what? Lack of, of knowledge. And that's knowledge of the Word. And the Word became flesh. And the Word was with God, and the word was God. John 1. Right. We know that the Word is God and that we need to know the Word and that we need to, like, get all our understanding and our knowledge from the Word, and we need to know God. I, I'm, I know how important it is to know God, but Jesus here is revealing to me. This is what I felt in my spirit, the importance of not just us knowing God, but God knowing us. Here's how I want to paint this out. Practically, very practically. And I don't want to take like a crazy amount of time on this because I know that it's in the middle of the day and I want you guys to get back to doing kingdom work and killing your day, right? But this is going to bless you. This is going to free a lot of us. Okay, here's what I want you to get into your spirit, and I'm going to use it through this example. I'm going to give you this example I know my pastor, Pastor Jonathan Shuttlesworth. I know him. I feel like I know his heart. I feel like I know what he stands for. I feel like I know the revelation that God speaks to him. Why? Because I watch him constantly. You know, some of y' all know, you know the. What is it the Desperate Housewives of, like, Hollywood or Beverly Hills or is it Desperate Housewives? I don't know, whatever that show is. Like, y' all know those people, but they don't know you. You might know the food that they like to eat. You might know the places they like to shop. You might know the clothes they like to wear. You might even know what they do on the holidays. Here's, here's the reality check is a lot of us might know God, but does God know you, bro? That hit me, man. That hit me. We might know God. And when we get to heaven, here's what everyone builds their life around, right here. Here's what everyone builds their life around. I want to get to heaven. And there's. There's nothing wrong with this. I just believe it's both. And. And I just believe it's bigger. It's bigger than just this one statement. When we get to heaven, most people are building their entire life. Real Housewives, I think, is what you're thinking of. Okay, Real Housewives, not Desperate Housewives. It's probably, it's probably Desperate Housewives is still probably pretty, pretty accurate. If you're, like getting people just to film your entire life so you can get some attention, you're pretty desperate. Praise the Lord. I got lost. I got sidetracked. Most people are building their life off of hearing this one statement, well done, good and faithful servant, which I believe we need to do. I believe we need to do. Because in this scripture, the first part, look at what it says. Not everyone who says to me, lord, Lord will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father. So in order for you to get a well done, good and faithful servant, it means that you have to do the will of the Father. So the Bible is not contradicting itself. There's just more. There's just more. I don't want to get to heaven and just hear, well done, good and faithful servant. Because before I hear, well done and good and faithful servant, I need to be let into heaven. And this is what Jesus is talking about. I'm not going to let you into heaven because I never knew you. Relationship gets you the access, stewardship gets you the well done. Let's put it this way to keep it sexy. Sonship gets you the access. Stewardship gets you the well done. I want both. But you can't get the well done without the sonship. You can't get the well done, you can't get the stewardship without the relationship, right? And so God just, Holy Spirit, yesterday just started working on me how simple this is, how simple the life of Christianity really is. I want you to think about this like for real, like, take some time and chew on this. How simple Christianity is. Stop trying to figure out the will of your father. Stop trying to figure out your calling in life. Stop. If you didn't hear my video when I, when I shared on me transitioning from Champions in Christ Ministries, I did a whole teaching for the last 40 minutes on Father Abraham, the father of our faith who was just doing his life and killing it and enjoying life. And he had a great relationship with God. So God then all of a sudden interrupted his normal and gave him an insane calling and made him the father of our faith. Abraham didn't ask for it, Abraham didn't search for it. Abraham didn't strive for it. Abraham was enjoying. Catch this cat, catch this. He was enjoying his sonship before God gave him something to steward. Christianity is that simple as what Holy Spirit is showing me? Man, I want to take the pressure off of you of being a good servant of God and I want to give you the freedom to just focus on being a son or a daughter. Just enjoy God. Just be a son, just be a daughter. Your sons and your daughters know just naturally that you want good things for them. That's how it should be with God. I don't want to be a servant to my parents. I want to honor them with service because of my sonship. That's how. That's how we begin. This is what Holy Spirit is showing me. That's how we genuinely begin to do the will of a father in heaven. It all has to come through relationship first. All of it has to come through relationship first. Jesus did not reject them in that scripture. Jesus that did not reject them for lack of power. Jesus did not reject them for lack of faithfulness. Jesus did not reject them for lack of purpose, for lack of calling, for lack of obedience. Jesus rejected them for lack of relationship. Get away from me, you evildoers. I. I never knew you. I never knew you. You might have known me, but I never got to know you, which is a crazy thought. God knows everything. Well, God knows. Well, God knows what God knows if. Yes, God knows everything. But then why would The Bible tell you to cast all your worries and your anxieties on him, for he cares for you. Why would the Bible tell you to do that? If God knows everything, why doesn't he just take it? Because he wants you to activate your relationship with him. He wants you to activate intimacy with him. Confess your sins to God and He's just and merciful to forgive you. Right? And then confess your sins one to another so that you might be healed. God wants you to confess. Confess your sins to him. God wants you to confess the things that you're excited about to Him. The Bible says this to boldly approach his throne with confidence man. God is looking for us to activate our intimate relationship with Him. That's what I believe. That's what I believe God is caring about. That's what I believe Jesus is showing us in this scripture. It's not, I'm not saying don't be a good servant. I'm saying be a son first and you'll naturally serve. Be a good son and you'll naturally serve. I serve my dad naturally. I probably go above and beyond. I know I don't probably. I go above and beyond for my dad. Whenever I'm in. I, I'm in an emotional state of gratitude for my dad the most. When I take time to genuinely focus on why I'm so grateful for my dad, why I'm so blessed by him, why he's a blessing for me, right? And I think of moments that we had in my childhood or recently and I just, I give myself those gifts to feel those emotions when I do those things. Here's what I've realized. There's this natural high level sense of honor that comes from my dad. And how do I honor my dad? It's usually through service. Service or gifts is what happens. It's just a very natural thing. It's a very natural thing. I want you guys to check out the scripture. I want you to put in the chat John 14:21. Put this in the chat. John 14:21. This is, this is great stuff. I hope it's blessing you man. And go ahead and share this stream. I want you to share this stream on your Facebook. Just share so that people can, can see it. Send it to anybody that you know that this would really bless anybody that's dealing with a religious spirit. Anybody who's just dealing with like not feeling like they're doing enough. I believe this, this live right here. I believe this teaching right here is going to start set them free. Not because, because it's Me? No, no, no. Not because it's wise and persuasive words, but because it's, it's, it's a demonstration of the power of the Holy Ghost. It's not going to happen through power, not through my, but by my Spirit, says the Lord, is because of the Holy Spirit. Here, I want you to put this in the chat. John 14:21. It says this. Those who accept my commandments and obey them are the ones who love me. And because they love me, my Father will love them. And I love, will love them and reveal myself to each of them. Obedience flows from love, not from fear. And revelation always follows relationship. Relationship. I just feel like God's been putting it heavy on my heart, man, in such an awesome way. Like the beauty of genuine real relationships. If you haven't gotten my book Real Prayer, you should get my book Real Prayer. That's why, that's the, that's why I wrote that book about prayer in that manner. Because I want God to know you. I want you to get to heaven and I want Jesus to say, come on in, I know you. And then you're going to get the well done, good and faithful servant. That's what, that's what I want for you guys. That's why I wrote my book Real Prayer. It's a, it's a no BS guide to a powerful prayer life. And I believe the most powerful prayer life. It's not a shouting prayer life. It's a life, a prayer life filled with vulnerability to God that the Father. Think about this. Like just, just think out loud with me for a little bit, right? Like, God knows all the motives in your heart. God knows all the thoughts in your head. Why don't you just talk to him about it? Why don't you just let him get to know you a little bit? I know it sounds elementary, but I feel like we got to go back down to the basics, man. I feel like we're in a season right now where we've got to be careful because there's a lot of people out there deceiving and just making things about what it's not about. It's. If it's not about the kingdom, dude, then it's got to be about the kingdom. More about your brand, more about your comfort, more about what you think it needs to look like, more about your pride. It needs to be about the kingdom. Needs to be about the kingdom. So we're in a season right now where you're going to have a lot of people trying to deceive and it is what it is. So you need to, like, get back down to the simple stuff, the word. Get back into the word. Get back into genuine prayer times with God, man. Just where you get to talk to him, where you get to tell him, where you get to genuinely express, like, what you're feeling, your concerns, where you get to genuinely apologize to him and genuinely repent. Because, man, God, I've missed it today. I've been missing it. I've been worried all day, so I know I've been missing it. You say that you are good, and I say that I love you and I say that I trust you, but I don't trust you, man. My day has been evidence of that today. But I want to trust you. I don't know why I get in these moods, Lord, where I just start, like, overthinking and I start being extremely critical of myself. And you made me. And you made me. You fearfully and wonderfully made me to operate the way that I operate, to have the sense of humor that I have, to have the critical thinking that I have, to have the gifts, talents that I have. And. And I'm over here just starting to freaking judge myself and criticize myself. And I'm your creation. It's good to have those conversations with God. Some of us need to begin to actually have those conversations with God. That's how we remain in Him. That's how we stay connected. Connected. You know, when I was doing divorce recovery coaching, one thing that I learned, right? And for everyone who, like, only listens to like, certified or verified counselors and therapists, then go ahead, Google this. It's all verified and certified by all of them that it is impossible to connect. No, it's. It's impossible to protect yourself and to be vulnerable at the same time. You cannot do both. You either protect yourself and you'll feel isolated, or you become vulnerable and you'll actually feel connection. In other words, the way to get connected is through vulnerability. And it reminds me of the scripture. John, chapter 15, verses four through. Through five. John, chapter 15, verses 4 through 5. You can drop that in the chat too. It says, remain in me and I will remain in you. For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine. Anyone who remains in me and I in him will produce much fruit. For apart from me, you can do nothing. How do we stay connected to the branch? How do we stay connected to Jesus? How do we remain in him and man, it's just relationship. Hey, Father, I know I spent an hour today in the Word Wanting to know you. But now I want you to know me. Now I want to spend some time allowing you to know me being in genuine relationship with you. I'm not positive of this. I'm not positive of this. But I wonder how many of us won't make it to heaven because we're chasing well done, good and faithful servant and we're overlooking I never knew you because we're chasing stewardship and servanthood and we're just completely forgetting sonship and relationship. I don't know. I don't know. But I'll tell you one thing man. I'm going to be a son. Not only am I going to know God, God's going to know me. Dude, by the time I die, God's going to know me. By the time today ends, God is going to know me. I can be a talker, I can be a venter. God's going to know me by the time today ends. Fruit in your life is going to be the result of connection, not your effort. Stewardship without intimacy is going to become performance. As soon as you feel like you're trying to serve God, as soon as you feel like you're trying to find your count, your calling, that is when you know that you've exited sonship and stepped into just servanthood. That is when you know you are lacking one thing, intimacy with God. And it's amazing. You could literally. Here's how amazing God is. The Bible says that God will work all things out and work them out in for the good of those who love him and are called according to his purpose. We all know that scripture. The Bible will also say that what the enemy meant for evil, God will turn around for your good. The Bible also says that if we acknowledge him in all our ways that he will make the crooked path straight. In other words, all the mess ups that you've created, all the effery that you've created in your household, in your life, it's okay. God will completely begin to turn that around. But it's going to happen through intimacy. So if like today you're feeling bad about yourself and you're saying dude, at the end of the day, I have not, I have not been focusing on God getting to know me. I've just been wanting to get to know him. I've just been serving, serving, serving. So much so that I've become a slave and I'm not even enjoying my walk right now and I feel like I'm trying and it's becoming a performance. That just means that the only Thing that means is that you're lacking intimacy right now. So just go be intimate with him. Go allow him to know you and you to know him. Go tell him what you're thinking about. Go tell him what you're going through. Go tell him, like, the things that you want to believe about the word but that you don't yet believe. Go. Go ask him the questions that you have. Whenever I read this, whenever I read this, God knows me, because immediately I read this and I said, God, that's very interesting to me. It sounds like you're saying that we're not going to get in because you don't know us. Is that what you're saying here? Is that what you're saying? And then he just starts highlighting all these, like, scriptures and stories of relationship, right? Like, it's just. It's just wild to me. It's wild to me. Think about this. The story of. I believe it's Zacchaeus. I believe it's Zacchaeus. I believe it's Zacchaeus. Hey, is it the story of Zacchaeus where he invited Jesus into his home and then his whole, like, life got turned around after that? And if so, where can I find that story? Yes, you're thinking of Zacchaeus. He was a tax collector, and after he met Jesus and welcomed him into his home. Okay, where can I find that story? You'll find the story of Zacchaeus in the Gospel of Luke, chapter 19, verses 1 through 10. It's a beautiful chat. GPT talks too much, man. It's like, just tell me what I asked you to do. Like, just give me the answers. 19. Let's read this story and then we'll finish with this man. I just want you to know God and I want God to know you. That's what this live is about. The wee little man in the tree. Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through. And there was a man called Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector and he was rich. Zacchaeus was trying to see who Jesus was, but he could not see because of the crowd, for he was in. He was short in stature. This is the modern day. He was the Old, the New Testament. Frank Ortega. Praise the Lord. So he ran on ahead of the crowd, inclined up in a sycamore tree in order to see him. For he was about to pass through that way. When Jesus reached the place, he looked up and said to the man, zacchaeus, hurry, come down for today I must stay in your house. So Zacchaeus hurried and came down. Welcome, Jesus. With joy. When the people saw it, they all began muttering in discontent. He has gone to be the guest of a man who is a notorious sinner. It's a whole other messages for ourselves, man, that Jesus was a thug, man. Jesus was a gangster. Jesus was a gangster, dude. Zacchaeus stopped and said to the Lord, see, Lord, I am now giving half of my possessions to the poor. And I have cheated. And if I have cheated anyone out of anything, I will give back for four times as much. Jesus said to him, today, salvation has come to, to this house because he too is a spiritual son of Abraham. Son, spiritual son, not servant, son. For the Son of man has come to seek and to save that which was lost. Here's the thing. In Jewish tradition, in that culture, if you broke bread with someone, it's because you're doing relationship with them. It's it. Especially bringing them into your house. It's. It's like this massive sign of intimacy. And so what happened? Zacchaeus initiated. Well, Jesus, watch what happened. Jesus initiated intimacy. Zacchaeus met that intimacy, brought him into his house. And after he had relationship with Jesus, then the stewardship came. Then doing the will of the Father. Now, guess what? Hey, Jesus, man, you've been spending time with me. I love you so much. I want you to know something, man. Just from spending time with you and getting to know each other and like hanging out a little bit, I'm gonna give away half of my stuff. And if I've screwed any run over, I'm gonna make it right. I'm going to do the will of the Father. Sonship, then stewardship. It's got to be relationship before you start operating in, in the will and doing the will. If you're doing the will of God, but you, it feels like performance. It's because you're missing out on intimacy. Guys, I don't want us to miss this. God wants to know you just as much as you want to know God. God wants to know you just as much as he wants to know God. Or as much as you want to know God. Think about Genesis. Just go back to where everything started. Why did he create Adam and Eve? It was for relationship. It was to spend time together. God is not some egotistical narcissist that's just like, hey, it's all about me. He actually cares about you. Do you know that? Did you know that your Bible actually says that the Son of man did not come to be served, but to serve. Who's he serving? You. Do you know that God cannot bless Himself. That's why he blesses you. You. You realize you mean something to this living God that we talk about and that we worship. You realize that he has your back. You realize that he wants incredible things for you. You realize that he doesn't just want you to get to heaven and hear, well done, good and faithful servant. He first is requiring relationship because he needs to know, hey, I know you. I know you. Before you can even get well done, good and faithful servant, you got to get a welcome in. I know you. This dude's family, this person's family here. That's what I want us to catch. I want to take the weight off of our servanthood by stepping into sonship. And servanthood will be automatic. Servant hood will be automatic. I put some notes up here yesterday. Knowing God leads to doing his will. Knowing builds trust. If you trust him, you'll trust his will. Relationship creates genuine servanthood. Servanthood never creates sonship. Servanthood never creates sonship. You cannot serve your way into relationship with God. You've got to be intimate. You've got to be intimate. Even the sinner's prayer, think about how intimate that is. God, I need you to know I'm a screw up. I've really messed things up. And I get it. I get that I cannot fix things on my own. I understand that I cannot do this thing on my own. But one thing that I do know is that you sent your son Jesus to die on the cross for me. Three days later, you rose him from the dead. And what he did was he took all of my crap for me and I could never repay it. And. But I'm willing to just trust in you. And if you. And, and because you will have me, I want to step into relationship with you. Even the sinner's prayer is so intimate. It's you literally telling someone I'm a screw up and I can't figure it out. I trust you with my life. I trust you with my life in heaven, in the afterlife, and I trust you with my life here on earth. It's relationship. It's relationship. Father, I thank you for today. Father, I thank you that everyone that listens to this is going to hear, hey, I know you come inside. And then they're going to hear, well done, good and faithful servant. Just like I believe it was Pastor Leonard Ravenhill back in the day, a general in the faith said, I do not believe that any man is bigger than their prayer life because it's in prayer where you get to know us and where we get to know You, Father, would you make us people of prayer? Would you make us people of relationship? Would you help us operate out of sonship that produces stewardship? Would we be more obsessed with getting to talk to you than obsessed with trying to figure out what our calling is? Would we not miss the moments that we have right now with you because we're so busy focusing on what we would like to experience in the future? God, Would this relationship with you just become so real? Would every person that's listening to the sound of my voice right now be refreshed in Jesus name that by the end of today, they just feel like a son again. They feel like a daughter again. I want you just as I'm praying right now with your eyes closed, I want you just to remember what it felt like to be a kid. And if you never had the opportunity to be a kid, then just ask yourself, what would that look like? To not have to worry about my. About having clean clothes in my closet and in my drawer. And it's like magic. It's just. All of a sudden, it just appeared there. Four years old. I thought I had gotten everything extremely dirty, but the next thing you know, I woke up the next day and. And all my favorite clothes, it's. It's clean and it's ready for me to wear again. How'd that happen? Almost seems like a miracle when you're a kid. When you're a kid, you just. You don't even think about if you're going to eat. You're just more focused on what you want to eat. Preference. Preference. You have a preference when you're a kid. Childlike faith. I feel like that's a word for somebody right now. You're going from focusing on God, please provide, to. You're about to be able to step into a place where you get to choose what you want. You're about to start mentally. This is what I want. This is how I want it. I don't want to just eat. I want pizza preference. Because God is not a broke God that doesn't have enough money to get you what you want to eat. So you have to eat rice and beans or ramen noodles. No, no, no. You have preference. As a daughter of God, I feel like this is for a daughter specifically. I really do. I really do think about that. Just continue to think about that for a second. This is good for you right now to slow down like this. Just think about what would it look like to be like a kid again? To be a son, to be a daughter. I don't have to worry if there's food, I get to choose. What kind of food. All my favorite stuff that I have if I thought I ruined it is getting placed back into my drawers in the morning. And I don't even know how it happened. It just did. It just did. It just did. Dude, God's ministering to somebody right now. I can feel it. Thank you, Holy spirit. Father, we thank you. We thank you. You're so good. Oh, we love you. I need you to know, Father, I love you deeply. I'm grateful for you. I think about you all the time. More than I even tell you. I think about you all the time. Sometimes it's not good stuff, man, but it always ends good. That's for sure. You're so good. I love you. We love you. Bless my friends. Bless my friends. Thank you. That nobody that's hearing this right now will ever have to hear turn away from me. I never knew you. Everybody on here will not just know God, but they will be known by God in Jesus name, Amen. I Love you guys. Conquer. Your evening is tonight at 7pm Central Standard Time. Streaming it across all streaming platforms. You can go and get the church center app and then join emoji ministries. You can do that through the link in my bio on Facebook and on my Instagram. And I've got some special teachings in there that you're not going to see on YouTube or anywhere else. I have a powerful teaching on the power of the tongue. Brilliant. And I'm not just saying that because I. I preached it. Okay. And I was actually wearing this exact same shirt when I did it. It's just I didn't know I was going to preach it until like the moment before. And God gave me this radical download and it just came out anointed because that's how he wanted to release it. So that's available inside of emoji Ministries. Inside of Emoji Ministries. Also partner with us. This is fertile soil for you to sow a seed. The Bible is very clear. It says to give and your gift will come back unto you. Press down, shaken together, making room for more. Here's a revelation that changed my life. In that same scripture. It says that I will cause men to give liberally to your bosom. In other words, I will cause men to give liberally into your lap. Into your lap. When I started practicing sewing and I started sewing in fertile soil, I started noticing that people would just randomly sew into me and I didn't have to do anything to try and earn it. I Didn't have to try and manipulate my way through it. You see a lot of people doing that crap these days is ridiculous, right? I just kept being me. I just kept loving people, serving people, whether they were going to serve me or not. I actually go out, like, even whenever. I remember when I was working for Steve Weatherford and he gave me the opportunity to start, like, taking on coaching clients one on one, I was like, okay, I'm gonna take on three. And the. And two of the three people that I chose were broke, so they couldn't pay me. But I felt like the Holy Spirit wanted me to serve them. So I was just like, I'm just gonna serve them even though they can't pay me. It doesn't make sense. Logically and business wise, it doesn't make sense. Well, man, I started getting blessed from everywhere else. I mean, it was just ridiculous. It was ridiculous. So if. If you want to sew, you can sew inside of our emoji Ministries app. There's a lot of cool stuff in there. You can see what we're up to. Partner with us. Pray about partnering with us.
