What’s your shoe size? That’s not even the real question… 🤯👟

Ese oji. I have a passion for prayer. I believe that I'm anointed to pray. It's a calling, it's a passion, and I understand prophetic prayers. Not everybody is going to— not everybody is going to be financially successful. Not everybody is going to be financially successful. Not everybody is going to be financially successful. Some people are going to struggle with, with, with poverty for the rest of their lives. Some people are going to struggle with the spirit of poverty. But this is the question: is there a way? Is this a strategy to, to come out of the spirit of poverty? Is there a system? Is there a system? I'm going to share with you some things I've learned. A couple of weeks ago, starting from October, I faced the greatest challenge of my destiny. I, I, it almost destroyed me. I'm, I, I have paid off the debt. My, my business, my, my kingdom business. The year COVID started, God put an idea in my spirit that run as a bloodline. Every family, I believe that God gives you, your family, the bloodline maps, the maps for your finances. Some people catch up on it, some people don't even know it exists in their bloodlines. They don't even know that they have the grace, the capacity for that route, that idea that has been forming in their spirit. There could be so something in your spirit that's been there. So it was horrible. It was the most horrible experience, starting from October. So every month it was horrible. But the story long and short of it is that God took me out of it. Now I want to share with you, it doesn't matter how much debt you have, God can supernaturally bring you to the place of complete deliverance. Complete deliverance. God can bring you to the place of complete deliverance. You, you can be, you can be set free. You can be set free financially. So money, in my struggle, I believed in the spirit of scarcity. Spirit of scarcity. I always give excuses why I don't have money. I don't have education. I don't have support. I don't have helper. I'm not in the right job. This and that. But let me tell you, in the midst of my greatest financial troubles, there was something that I unlocked in my spirit. There was something that I unlocked in my spirit. Let me tell you what it is. I found out by scripture that the earth is of the Lord and the fullness thereof. That everything on earth belongs to God. First, then I realized that everything God created is in abundance. Gold, men, women, stars, moon, every— you go to Australia, go to Japan, you all see the sky. God is a God of abundance. God fashioned the earth in surplus. We humans cannot completely cover the earth's surface. It's impossible. There's provision for everybody. So one of the things I began to struggle with was, how am I going to come out of this financial situation? How am I going to defeat the battles that are raging before me. First, God began to show me that money is everywhere, which is the first law of finances, the first law of money. When you believe in scarcity, when you believe in scarcity, when you believe that anything is in shortage it will cut you short from that flow. So I had to first, I had to first understand that if I'm going to be free to access what God has I must see God not just by his title, not just by what he can do, but I have to begin to see God in what he has done. Because if I begin to see God in what he can do, my imagination will be limited. If I see God in what I want him to do, my imagination, my expectation, my experience, my encounter will be only limited to God solving the problem. So I have to break out of the cycle of what I'm owing, cycle of what I don't have. It's the first law of money. It's everywhere, of abundance. See, the problem I battled with, and many of us battle with, is that we look at God by resource. We don't look at God from resourcefulness. So I sat down one day and I began to ponder, I began to wonder. A God who placed the skies in their position and the skies never moved. A, a, a, a God who placed diamonds, silver, gold beneath the surface of the earth. A God who creates, created, and still creates. I began to go through every country, the resource, the people, the population, everything. It began— so when I began to see what God has created, I now began to see what God can do, that what I owe is not limited to what God can do for me. First love, money. Money is everywhere. Abundance is everywhere. So I had to break the shortage mentality. There is a spirit that is holding you bound. There is a spirit that is blocking the angels that encamped around you. There is a spirit that is haunting and taunting your creativity because you will never discover what God can do without discovering what God has already done. So I had to understand that money is everywhere, that it is increasing, it is in capacity, is in circulation. Money is in circulation. There are billions of dollars in circulation. I know, as I began to study the 7 power nations, great nations, I began to study even the less powerful nations, nations in Africa, how God put gold in certain countries. The gold in South Africa is not the one in Europe. The one in Venezuela is not the one in America. So God, you know, one thing I like about God as I study the word is that God begins to put the right proportion of resources and resourcefulness and people in countries and in places, and he also did all of this for his pleasure. So that's number one. You have to break out from the shortage mentality. You think too small. Your thought pattern is provoking, is aborting your prayers. So if God is going to get me out of this situation, I must first get out of the situation, because you get locked in things and get limited because you you don't know what God can do. I have a question. Have you counted the stars, the constellations of stars? I did. Have you looked at the birth rate in your country? I did. Have you looked at everything that was created by God? I did. Because for me to understand the Creator, I must understand his creation. I must see the depth, the height of what God put on earth. The earth is of the Lord and the fullness thereof. God created the world that we live in. That's what the scripture says. So I'm not going to think about a $100,000 debt or a lack of job. Those are minute microorganisms. Those are little things for God. Because we tend to box God in what God needs done. No, God does not need anything done. See, God's greatest— God's desire is to be believed. He said, with the heart man believes. See, God's ultimate goal for you and me is to believe him. God wants to be believed, that's all. He doesn't want to perform. So I thought that God was going to pay my bills, then I know he's God. No, God has no performance. There's no Oscar, there's no second to God. He's God. So I sat down, took my phone, and began to examine critically I began to allow the visibility of God to be revealed to me. And you know what it did? You know what I did? It broke the spirit of fear. How can I fear when I can see that every Every day the stars are in place. Every day the moon is in place. How can I be worried that God will not solve the problem when I know that he's an unchangeable changer? He's the same. He is the same yesterday 'Today and forever.' You know what that means? That means the moon will still be in its place even after I've gone. You know what that means? The sun will still rise in the morning. You know what I mean? Darkness will still never take the place of light. I began to see that God is the same, not just by what God has said in his word, but what I see taking place on earth. I see that every word that he spoke is still in place. That began to, you know, began to walk my mind up that even God who spoke 2,000 years ago still kept his word, that everything Everything is rotating at the same pace and at the same time and in their place. None has complained, even though when the sun is about to shine, the storm comes and, you know, takes the moon or the stars out of its position. Even though that light is excited, it never complained at 12 noon or 12 midnight when there's a change of season. I've never heard darkness complain. Even when God said that let the lesser— greater light rule over the lesser light, and God says that he uses darkness to separate the times and the season, and he's still ineffective today. So whatever I owe, whatever is my credit score, whatever I lack, it's not the problem. The problem is that I don't trust God. So for my finances to be fixed, for me to come out of this debt that can't allow me to sleep— there were nights I would wake up, how am I gonna pay $60,000? And listen, my monthly was $7,000. That's what I needed to pay. That's not my electricity, that's not my basic necessity. This is the extra I must pay. Oh, I'm in problem. Let me tell you, there are some battles that reveal the creativity of God. There are some problems that brings in the perception, the right perception, the right revelation, the right insight, the foresight. There's some things, hallelujah, that are ordained on your path. I had to go through the challenge. They were nice. I'll come out of my bed and lie on couch and I'm calling on him. There were days, countless days, I would go into church and just lie on the altar because I'm a a prayer because my expression is prayer, my action is prayer, my warfare is prayer, and I respond by prayer. There were days I just didn't know how to come out of this. As I began to know God more, I began to realize, that's what I'm telling you today, that your problem is not a problem. That your problem is not a problem. Your problem is that you've not taken time To look through what God has done, to see that your problem is part of his reality. I stopped chasing the first law of money, 7 laws of money. Money is everywhere. You can't see it because you have selective foresight. All you're thinking is for God to pay your bill. I've come to realize that God has nothing to prove. He only wants me to believe him because he said all things are possible to them that believes. So when I began to believe God, when I began to believe God, I began to believe God not to fix my finances but to reveal to me what he has created, because the creation of God shows the character of God. See, God is not just known by his name. See, everybody that encountered God in the scripture, he did something for them and they called— they gave him a name. Abraham was among them on the mount with his son Isaac, and God supplied the lamb, and Abraham said, this is Jehovah Jireh. First love morning. You have to see what I'm telling you. You have to go forensic. You have to go revelational. You have to go with the perception of a revelation. Sit down. When God began to show me what he's done, what he can do, was no longer a problem. I'm drawn to God not because I want him to 'Help me pay the bill.' It's because I want Him to help my unbelief. God bless you.
