In this short sermon, the speaker denounces religious teachers who profit from followers' ignorance and urges listeners to seek direct communion with God instead of relying on earthly promotions or salaries. He emphasizes that true advancement comes from God's grace, not from material wages, illustrating his point with a personal anecdote of earning only a few cents per hour. The speaker calls the audience to spend dedicated time on the altar—praying for minutes or hours each day—to experience divine recognition and uplift. He asserts that God will lift believers up this year, stressing that grace is more than sufficient. The message is anchored by a reference to Luke 4:1, using the scripture to reinforce the need for spiritual promotion over worldly success.
Chapters
People who are teaching you are funding their lifestyle by you, your ignorance. Hallelujah! Can I have an amen? You must remain secret in the altar. See, let the voice of God remain in you. Let the— let your voice be heard by God. Let there be a sudden recognition. You know what? I'm not— you, you should every day, you say, God, I want to just spend 3 minutes with you. I want to spend 3 hours with you. Hallelujah! This week, Father, I want to lie on my altar, I want to pray. Hallelujah! Look at me, look at me. There are many of you here, there's nobody here earning $20,000. If you're earning $20,000 in this church and I don't see your title, $20,000, I'm gonna fight you in the spiritual realm. Hallelujah! Can I have an amen? See, your salary is not enough. Don't waste your time, it will never be enough. It doesn't matter how much they promote you. I got promoted. How much? 2 cents in an hour. And when you calculate the 2 cents in an hour, it ends up to be $2.50. And after that, you take some taxes and take some insurance and take something, and every day you get back home, it's only $90. You're wondering what was the promotion. No, he said promotion does not come from the east or the west. It is God that lifts men up. God will lift you up this year. I need a name. God will lift you up this year. See, there's a place to get to. Listen to me. There's a place I want you to get to where your skill is important, but your grace is more sufficient. Amen. He said, my grace is sufficient. What do you mean sufficient? Enough, more than enough. I like you to go— hallelujah— I want you to understand, you cannot see. There are some things you can access in the natural, but some things that need spiritual things. Go to verse 1, Luke chapter 4, verse 1. Let me go deeper. Jesus— look at Luke chapter 4, verse 1.
