Bishop T.D. Jakes's Life Advice Will Change Your Future | MotivationCanva

I never knew the way people described you would become a prison until they did. Your best moment is when you are authentic to the core and you have to be what you are, not what you are called and what happens in

life

as we evolve. As a person we cannot allow ourselves to be imprisoned by anything that people would describe us as because then it limits what the Holy Spirit can do in

your

life

. I was raised by a dying father born between two dead babies. I truly value the preciousness of life, the baby before me died and the baby after me died and my mother held on to me as only a mother who has lost a child can and an appreciation for the value of life and a refusal to allow anyone to take away the great privilege of being one.

think for myself I will move in my own direction you can say what you want to say about it but I will be I think that everything we will ever be we were already in seed form I come out with and and The acor don't look like oaks, but They are there, they are there, design is absolutely in the sea, so when I look back at my DNA and my propensity to lead and my propensity to speak and my fascination with life, my My mother used to say that the world It is a university and everyone in it is a professor.

When you get up in the morning make sure you go to school and I have done that my whole life, yes I have learned from everyone I have ever met. I knew good or bad, right or wrong, I learned something Furious, aren't you extremely furious? I don't know anyone who has ever become important in any area of ​​life, not just in the church, in any area of ​​life who hasn't been driven by the force of some level of crushing something, something that could having killed you and should have killed you, became the Catalyst and the urgency through which you evolved into the highest expression of who you were meant to be and I'm telling you that the biggest part of you is still somewhere inside. from you and only pressure will take it out, only pressure, yes, that you have not seen who you are in the pleasant moments when you smell the flowers in the bad and feel the sun on

your

face for which you were not raised. be fruitful but to be crushed the grave is one of the few fruits that rises to be crushed in that you know with crushing in mind Christ was born to die anything less than that would have been a failure that's why when Peter tried to stop the crucifixion he called it devil because he understood that he was resurrected like a crane to be crushed.

The Bible says that Jesus set his face to go to Jerusalem but he did not bow his head until he was on the cross and understanding that for that purpose I came into the world and it is not that You love the suffering, he despised the shame but the joy that came his way, so he looked beyond the crush and saw the wine you see and understood that the wine is taking that grape to its most powerful state. expression and is putting it in its most Eternal form and life crushes us from time to time because nothing else will bring out of you the hidden treasure that we have locked up in the earth and in the vessels but being crushed you know the funny thing.

About this, I think that Periodically, wherever there is a purpose and wherever there is resistance to that purpose, the pressure releases us from that resistance and the more we give in to the process, but the problem today is that we don't preach the process, we preach promises, yes, so I have raised a generation of people who see God in the promises, not the process, so you go to church on Sunday and you hear about the promises of God, you come home to the process and when you encounter the process you say, well, God is not in this and I.

I would say that God is more in the process than in the promise when you pass through the waters I will be with you when you pass through the fire I will be there his promise is to be with you in the process and and and there are things you can't learn about him until you are in the process . There is a revelation of the glory of Him that only comes and the frustration and disruption of your life. He said: I am a present help in trouble if you avoid trouble. you will avoid me I am present in problems I manifest myself in problems I show myself strong when men abandon me then the Lord will raise me up then it was good for me to have been afflicted if I had not been afflicted I would never have made known the glory of God so Throughout the Bible the Bible maintains the very symbol of our faith is a love in the place of the cross an emblem of suffering and shame it is not a crown it is not a throne it is a cross it is a cross that makes an invitation of a cross, but Jesus, yes, you know, you make an invitation, you say, come, go to Hawaii, you know, you know, let's go to Switzerland, Jesus says, come on, let's go to the cross, that's a difficult invitation, take up your cross and follow me , come.

We're going to die if the only way you can follow that kind of request is to know that what's on the other side is bigger than anything that came before, but I want to warn the audience about the invisible crushes that come from forces what you can not. See how stress, anguish and pain, no one has to be sick or locked up or you don't have to get out of prison to be crushed by stress. Science teaches us that the same part of our body that reacts to physical pain, the same signal reaches your brain from emotional pain.

It sends the same stimuli to the entire neurological system when your heart is broken as if you broke your leg, so you don't necessarily have to suffer physical injuries to be crushed by emotional stress. and we are living in a time of invisible forces that press on our soul daily, everything goes so fast and in that fast pace in which we live there is a certain amount of invisible pressure and the strange thing about this. If you feel the pain, you feel the pressure and you can't see the fountain and God says you can, you can see it like the winepress or you can see it like the parter will, but the more it turns, the more it touches it. and the more it

change

s in the turn and if you are not prepared for the interruption, then you are not prepared for the resurrection and, I will be honest, some said that is not easy to do, it is not something that is done from the place of your Las Emotions are something you do from the place of your teaching.

I went through a period in my life where I was just being crushed. My heart was broken. I was worried. It was one of the most disturbing moments of my life. I was literally crying when I felt it. I told God this I told Him Lord I hate this I absolutely hate it but I love you and I know you won't let me go through this if it wasn't for my own good and even though the tears are running down my face and I can't see my way If you let them hurt me It is only to improve myself and that is why I trust you when I cannot trace you because he who has started a good work in me and if everything he ordered me to face when it is all over has to end for me the relationship that I am most sure of is him and the reason I am so sure is that there is nothing in me that he has not considered all things are naked before him with whom we have to do.

He might disappoint me. my wife or disappoint my children or disappoint my mother can discover something about me and

change

his mind about me God could never discover anything about me no he can't be surprised yes, he can't be surprised there is nothing in me that he doesn't already know I know he has already made a decision about me it is not always possible to explain no sir suffering is not always possible to make people rejoice in that kind of agony I teach people just survive just survive don't try to understand it well just survive because if you survive it on the other side you will see something that makes more sense in retrospect than today, looking back in the rearview mirror, is not what it once was.

It was a wonderful thing to go through, but if my father hadn't died when he did, I wouldn't be who I am, his death was the birth of my Ministry, you see, and the seeds always hint to us that life arises from death as the outer shell corrodes into the earth they enter life verse four and everything that dies in you is only so that something more is born in you
