of the Kingdom.

I'm going to focus on being successful in times of crisis. How can you succeed at all the others that are crumbling around you? How do you get through the system when the system has spit you out? What do you do when you are no longer one? A company no longer needs it. What do you do when you lose your income? What do you do when nothing seems to work and you're losing your car, your house, and your sanity? What do you do when there is not enough to take care of your daily obligations? How do you handle life crisis?

When life hits you on the blind side. You didn't expect things to turn out the way they did. What do you do when even friends abandon you and can't help you? When you get shut down or lose a business, what do you do when creditors put so much pressure on you? How do you survive when you've been working a job for 20 or 30 years and then you get laid off and now you're too old to even start a new skill. What do you do when the insurance company no longer wants to insure you because they assume that your age does not benefit the principles of their policy?

What do you do when illness ravages your body and health care bills are eating away at your own family's legacy. What do you do when you take your children out of private school and put them in public school? What do you do when you have so much stress in your marriage due to financial problems that it is causing you to have difficulty sleeping with your spouse crisis let's talk about crisis for a minute I have a picture here of a crisis it is a hurricane Americans call it tornado hurricane it is in In reality, a massive tornado when a hurricane arrives we call it a crisis.

Why is a hurricane a crisis? why is a tornado a crisis? why is a tsunami a crisis? Why is a snowstorm a crisis? the answer is because a crisis is really circumstances that occur that you have no control over and you didn't cause them if you lost your job because you were laid off you can't control that if your company doesn't have the type of clients or the clients have dropped and you don't You can't make enough money to keep things going, you have to close it, that's it. In a crisis you can't control the people who come or don't come to patronize your company, what do you do well?

A crisis is an institutional circumstance of nature, the environment or the system that attacks its balance, but there are some good things in a crisis. The world is in crisis right now, the economy of every country in the world seems to be under great turmoil and in your nation and in the Bahamas, here where I live, there are different people who are having a hard time making it, but today I come with good news. I want you to follow me very closely about what to do in the midst of that crisis. There are some things you can do that are based on the kingdom system and that will give you the success and prosperity you need in the midst of that crisis.

A couple of things have been a crisis to write. The number one crisis is incubating our creativity. Most of the time we are not creative until something bad happens to us. When things fall a

part

, it makes us think outside the box. The second crisis demands a new way of thinking. about old problems an old problem is that you have to pay a mortgage the problem is that the source of income with which you used to pay it has dried up but the old problem has not gone away you still have to pay your mortgage so what do you have to What you do is not find a new way to generate income to pay for the old problem, so the crisis actually forces you to think of new ways to solve old problems.

Thirdly, the crisis is an opportunity to improve and move forward on old ideas, sometimes it is the only way to do it. keep going if something happens that pushes you and many times we don't grow until we have to, then the crisis comes many times to improve us because we have been stuck in one place too long and crisis number five also comes to produce growth. and it also produces a sense of development, it makes you develop new approaches towards life, crisis creates new opportunities, it is amazing when we look at the world today, every progressive invention came from a problem and that is because crisis makes you develop and think about new things. ways in which the number seven is very important crisis produces and manifests true leadership ability, no matter how much you would like to claim to be a leader, only crisis proves it, you are not really a leader in good times, anyone can lead in the Good Times, leadership is tested and proven. when there is an environment of crisis, then the crisis comes to test to see if you are as mature as you say you are, you have been telling people how good God has been, let's see how good he is.

When things fall a

part

, you've been telling me. how much faith you have, but let's see what kind of faith you have when there have to be situations where things don't look very good and you're not sure how you're going to get through in the morning, in other words, the crisis comes. To test your leadership ability, another definition of crisis is that the crisis ignites the passion for a renewed vision of your life. The crisis takes you back to what God told you from the beginning. Sometimes you get sidetracked and God had to pull the rug out from under you to make it happen. you come back down to earth and many times a crisis takes you back to the original idea that God told you from the beginning and it's called your original vision and this is one of the good things about a crisis, it takes you back to your passion now.

So, I want to talk a little bit about the benefits of Crisis. There is a statement made by Shakespeare. Everyone knows Shakespeare, the great playwright. Shakespeare said these words. I love him. He says, "Sweet are the uses of adversity." adversity that is a profound statement in other words he is telling us when things are adverse when things are in crisis don't panic use them use them to get a positive result everything that happens to you could be used to produce something good that's amazing This is how Shakespeare captured everything. Then he realized something in his own thinking: adversity can be used to benefit the one under adversity.

The richest man. One of the richest men in the United States. His name is John Huntsman. John Huntsman is the founder of one of the largest companies in the United States. United States and produce about 90 percent of all the plastic forks and spoons you use at home or at parties. This company is the number one company in the world that produces plastic plates and cups. the company here is owned by this man his company went into debt and his company actually collapsed a few years ago and he went into crisis mode and he rented a bank the bank said they didn't find out there was no more money in his company he went bankrupt He went home and told his wife, I quit, I'm never going to stop this company again, I'm going to go find a job, it's over.

His wife said, honey, you told me that this idea was given to you by God and that you're going to build this and make it successful. . That's why I married you. I believe you now. If you're going to do this, go back and start again. He said his wife forced him to go back and ask another bank. He left the old bench and showed. the bike the truth told this is what I did in the last 15 years this is what happened and I could start over I know how to build a business Would you trust me? and the bank says: I'll take a chance on you.

I had no credibility. with no assets, just a record that he built a company, the bank took a chance on him and he started starting the company again today. The company is worth more than $14 billion. He ran for president of the United States during the Obama era. Do you remember this man's? Name, he is one of the candidates for president of the billionaire of the United States, this is what he said as a result of the crisis of him. Quote, if there is a silver lining to bad times, it is this: when facing severe challenges, your mind is usually at its sharpest. quote now look at the statements in that statement that he said when you are under the most pressure, that is, when your mind is usually at its sharpest because your mind has to think about things and it has never thought about them before.

Another quote I received from him is this. one said that humans have rarely created anything of lasting value unless they were tested or hurt he was speaking from experience said that we don't produce anything worth talking about unless we are under pressure you know people respect the Ministries of the State of the Bahamas because we used to do it be called a cult and we survived as we used to call ourselves a place where we steal people's money and we survived as we used to call ourselves a kind of passing phenomenon in the night that won't last and we survived that in other words you never trusted the things you claim, you always trust the things you survived, it is the proof that creates credibility, write it down, it is the proof that creates trust, so if you are going through a time of bankruptcy, that is your proof of trust.

On the other side of the crisis, in other words, you never think that a crisis comes to conclude your life, it comes to give credibility to your life, whatever you are doing through the problems right now, what you are going through will give you I respect it from other people who watch you, there are people who pray that you fail and then will trust you when you don't. The weird people in the world hope that you don't make it and when you make it they congratulate you, therefore. do not listen to the detractors accept the test as part of you to become a successful person successful people are always testimonies of survival they were not born successful success is the result of going through an oven sleeping with lions being destroyed being destroyed being criticized and attacked success is what people think of you after trying to kill you this is success in fact let me put it this way let me define a crisis in detail for you a crisis is literally a circumstance or an event or situation that affects you and also affects your environment about which you have no cause, you did not cause it and you also do not have a direct reason for it to be against you and you are a victim of it, you are not responsible for it, you are fired from your job, that is a crisis if a doctor told you that you had a CIS in your uterus, that's a crisis, you didn't cause it, the doctor said you had a growth in your uterus, so you had a growth in your breast, then you had a growth in your brain which is a crisis that doesn't you knew it was there you didn't cause it if someone tells you well you know uh uh we're going to have to remove your overdraft because you know you don't qualify well anymore you tried all these years now you're a victim of the system what do you do? a crisis is just unplanned and uncontrolled to change a crisis something you didn't plan for but it happened I think the biggest fear today is the biggest The crisis right now across our world is the loss of a job, the ability to secure yourself financially.

People are afraid of losing their jobs. Some have already done it. Are they traveling the world? I have seen thousands of people who have literally lost their homes. I just got back from Orlando and they got rolls of million dollar homes with for sale signs in a gated community. I drove there and I said, my God, they say yes, people have to move because they can't keep up with the mortgage and the collapsing system the bubble has burst and we have people who had millions of dollars and now they sleep in apartments of two rooms why because the system did not plan the change a crisis sometimes you think you have done it wrong but believe me the poor person does not know what they are talking about when they say crisis a man who was ruined at another dance so he did not have money are the ones who There are many who hurt worse the crisis is hitting everyone that is my point but please write this this is very important and that is that the fear of losing your job is the biggest concern today and I want to talk about this because it is what the Lord told me to talk about in these two sessions to review his concept of work because that is where the problem of our economic psychology lies.

It has made us dependent on jobs and that has become our curse because a job is really an opportunity that someone else offers you and if someone offers you an opportunity they can always take it back and if you build your life on someone else's offer you are the same. sure how they feel at that moment and they can change the way they feel at any time and withdraw the offer. Anyone know what I'm talking about. That's why you can't build your life on a job, stay with me, I'll help you. With this here, one of the good things about a crisis: if you lost your job, if your business closed, if you have to withdraw your investments or you have to sell some property or things don't work out, there is a good side to this. kind of thing every test is temporary say that with me every test shout it out loud cause i want a high five tell them every step istemporary I'm going to say it out loud every trial is temporary save it some feeling every trial is temporary clap your hands That's the truth so no matter what you're facing don't panic for too long you might find me for a while minute, but I have come to tell you that the time of panic is over because you will gain some wisdom, nothing is permanent. except God in his promises, everything else is changing, in fact, God promises us that nothing will change. they remain the same he promised that now God does not change his promise does not change and here one of his promises said Ezekiel Ecclesiastes rather chapter 3 says that for For everything there is only one season and for all purposes there is a time under heaven in other words, everything you experience is only seasonal if you are broke now it is only a seasonal bankruptcy you are about to move on to have a lot of income I tell you never I'm just going through a tough time give someone a shout out right there I'm just going through a tough time for everything, there's a season when you have to buy time in your marriage.

Outlast, everything will be fine in no time, in other words, your crazy wife can come back to sanity even if the season is what her husband is temporarily strange, he will be back soon, in other words, his children are acting crazy now , but it's seasonal crazy, nothing Jesus says lasts forever, so if your company had to die, he will rise again, come on Mr. Huntsman, talk to me. I'm telling you that if your business failed, I've come to tell you to bury it, have a good funeral and then prepare for a resurrection, tell them I'm coming back why, because it's all just for a season, if they fire you, they're gone.

Sorry later, they'll try to hire you again when the season changes, but by then you'll be able to have your own company. You can start hiring them. It's a season for everything. Can I hear an amen in the place? Am I just talking about this? good morning everything there is a season so they fired you write them a letter tell them thank you very much for letting me enter a new season I will be back this is one of the most important things I learned because we are running a race let me show you something here crises are very important here they require new patterns of thinking that is why they arise in fact the crisis creates new solutions when things fall apart you have to find another way to solve them look the problem with humanity is that we are creatures of habit we have the habit of going to work and suddenly you don't have a job you keep going to work there are people who have to put on their clothes for God's sake they got fired and they pass by the place back and forth here I'm just looking at the place hey, you're fired, okay, break the pattern, we have a pattern of being bankrupt, so we even receive money to be spinach just to make sure that we are bankrupt, it is a patent, but the crisis comes to break the patent writing. this crisis initiates new concepts it also renews our vision it cancels experience this is important when a crisis comes your experience becomes useless that is why the quietest voices today are economists are not saying anything at this time for the last five years economists They haven't said anything, they haven't made recommendations, you know why all the principals who taught them at school have been cancelled, the economy that exists now never existed before, they never saw a bankrupt country, they never saw a failed government before, what are you doing? when nothing you learned works, a crisis comes to cancel that out and that's why I think you know I was taught like many of you, my parents were so kind that they said kids go to school, get an education and then they said they had experience. is the best teacher, well that's not always true, experience can be your worst enemy because if you have experience doing something a certain way and the environment changes your experience becomes your enemy, but I never had to do this job Before, yes, but now you're ruined.

You better learn how to do it, but I have a lot of experience in banking, yes, but they are not renting bikes at the moment. You have to go to work at the hotel. I have experience in hotels, yes, but hotels hire and you better learn how to do it. be a gardener, come on, look at me that way, look at your experience being destroyed by the crisis, sometimes we get so hooked on our experience that we wait until we find something that can use our experience and nothing, once you experience, you almost have to restructure yourself , sometimes you have it. to relearn things you have to learn new skills why because life has a way of shaking things up there are people right now who are so proud they are starving can I get that job that is beneath me oh yeah it will be You better get that job take that job that's available we'll bury you in the ground soon if you don't get your act together and put your pride in your pocket if a job opens up tell them I'll take it for a season clap your hands man some of everyone You can understand well, see that Jesus was temporarily a carpenter.

He always knew that he was the savior of the world, but during that period of time he had to work a job, but that wasn't his job and sometimes you had to do it. take a job to survive, work at your job, there is no season where you dress up and go nowhere driving an E car, trying to pretend everything is fine and then bombarding people with money, it will be you better get a job until you get your job back oh boy it's calming down some of you are not applauding but that's okay the crisis manifests and expresses if you are a true leader and true leaders will do anything like be carpenter, until the time comes to become the savior of your job does not define you you are bigger than the job you get so enjoy it why are you going through that job you will not go to that job that is not your destiny that is a temporary place for you to learn a few things and they pay you to learn while you're on the path to greatness that's why you should never disregard the demands of a job crisis Innovative thinking makes you think in ways you've never thought before young people coming out of college looking for a job some of you are trying to stay in the US you broke up you come back home we broke up what are you going to do become innovative this is very important I want to show you something here I won't talk about success that's right Since we should fix our definitions here, please write down each statement.

Everyone wants to be successful. I have never met anyone who planned to fail. Every human being wants to have it, so does everyone, but I want to make it clear that success is predictable. It's not a strange statement, but you can predict success. Second, failure is also predictable. This is very. very important what I am saying now there is no luck in success that is why you cannot be successful playing the lottery success is what is predictable the soul is failure now how can these two important things be predictable here is why because everything in life was designed to work according to laws and laws make everything predictable.

Let me give you an example: your car was built to work according to the law of unleaded gasoline, that is a law built into the car, if you like. If you put grade A Florida orange juice, thoughtful orange juice in your car, it would be a tank. What have you done? You broke the law if you put five gallons of orange juice in your gas tank. Can I prophesy that you won't have a running car? Can I predict then how can I predict it? What would happen? You broke the law. success and failure are not mysterious, they are both results of the law that leads to point number six God designed your life to be successful, he designed it to be successful.

I'm going to show you in a minute why everything that God created, he designed to be successful everything the cockroach the rat the seed the fish the birds everything God created the atom the worm everything that God created he designed to be successful and there is a reason why at least point number seven your success is good because God said it with me my success is good for God I repeat this is very very important when I discovered this I was a teenager this is one of the things that changed my life I discovered it by reading the Bible myself when I was 17 I discovered that God needs me to be successful let me explain why I write this the success of a product protects the reputation of the manufacturer I want to repeat it the success of a product does what protects the reputation or the name of the manufacturer when I discovered that principle I put pressure My God, you see that a product carries with it all the credibility of the manufacturer, everything created by a manufacturer before leaving the factory, the last thing they put on it is its name, you have an iPad, you see Apple on it, Apple is the name of the company that produced this your shoe has the name of the company your blouse your shirt has the name of the company the pen in your hand has the name of a company each product has the name of the company write the word name please I won't tell you what the word name means in Hebrew name means to be-e-i-n-g to be strange in other words in Hebrew the name of a thing is the thing that's why when Moses asks God what your name is it was a problem for God to answer Moses spoke in Hebrew, we don't know what kind of Hebrew it was, so don't try to speak Hebrew, even the Hebrew of today in Israel is not the original Hebrew.

People get excited about these names of God and things listen, they calm down, it's okay, even the name you have. Yahweh is not a real name, but you calm down anyway, listen, he asked God what your name is. God said to Moses. Well, I am what I am. That is what I am. God answered correctly. A name is not a label in Hebrew. The name is character. Then God said. to Moses my name is I am what I am at that moment that is how it is written you know if you translate it into English it does not make sense my name is what I am at that moment call me that what is your name God says it It depends, it depends on what am at that time, so Moses decided to write God's name as best he could.

He wrote Jehovah in the blank, it's a blank and you fill in the blank depending on what God becomes, for example, God doesn't heal people, he is Rafa. yes I am trying to speak God does not bring peace, he is Jehovah shalom God does not provide you with things, he is Jehovah Jireh God does not give you wisdom, he is Jehovah Nissi, do you understand this? So when you start saying you will know the names of God, that is impossible because God becomes whatever you need him to be at that moment, foreigner, so if you need healing, he becomes Jehovah, the rightful one for you, but the guy next to you needs some money, he becomes Jehovah Jireh to that guy, so he got two manifestations of God's character in the same place that same God became flesh and dwelt among us in a body called Yeshua What does Joshua mean, which simply means savior and one time they asked him what your name is, who are you?

His answer was me. I have been telling you all the time who I am but you don't believe me, they said no, you confuse it because on Monday you say I am the light, then on Tuesday you say I am the way and on Wednesday you say I am the bread and about the things I am the water he said which one you are depends on what you need he says Jesus became all you need depending on what you need then he says I am and He put in the blank space the light of the world I am the Water of Life I am the bread of life I am the resurrection I am the truth I am the life I am the way I am the door in other words what do you need me to become?

I become that name is the being I address There is something here, so when you put your name on something you are putting your being on it. The Hebrew word for name is the same word for image. Write it down. The image is called, for example. Calvin Klein is an image. Sean John is an image. use the image of a foreign person when God was in his factory producing you the Bible says he said to himself or three of himself word father Spirit said let us produce a product this will not be like the birds it will not be like the cats and dogs and the fish this can be a unique product we can put our name on this let's make a species called man in our own image that word is powerful power means characteristics we will put our seal our image on this creature No angel was made in the image of God when Michael gave you see see the very image the character the being of God when Gabriel sees you see the very character the being of God let us make man in our image and likeness means he functions like us now why does God make you not only so that you have his characteristics but also why do you function like him?

Because God never fails. So God, I can't afford for you to fail because I have my name on you. I'm about to show you. up here just uh, I know you're using this, let me borrow this for a second, these are the Cyber ​​Saints. I have in my hand an iPad from the company called Apple. When you bought this, it was in a box. sealed film wrapped around it when you open it, the first thing you saw was not the product, they had it covered with a book and the book says do not try to operate this product until you have read me completely, how many of you really completely? let mesee your hands don't tell lies in church it's okay look no one reads that book completely no one forgives me too Lord it's okay but if I wanted to go home and review the book because in the book generally the last two pages you will find something important each manual first has a warranty page then it has a warranty page I'm right, you don't read them well these are very important the most important pages of the entire document the warranty and the guarantee is the The manufacturers promise that if something doesn't work in this product , they will replace it free of charge at your expense.

They say put it back in the box. Send it to us at our expense. We will pay for the shipping. We will send you a new one. back they don't even know you so don't think they like you, they don't do it because they like you, there must be some other motivation why they are so committed, so it's okay if something goes wrong with this in the first one. two years we will replace everything for free we will send to our authorized dealer to repair any problem and we will pay for it they don't even know you they said if you open this and there is any malfunction we guarantee we are a Guarantee from our company that we will make sure you get one new replacement at no cost to you.

They don't even know him, so why are they so dedicated to this? I'm going to say it slowly. Why are you so dedicated to this? I didn't tell you they don't know you. They are dedicated to their product because when you turn it around, their name is on the product. They don't know your name. They will pay any money. They take their entire company and stand behind the product. They promised to send you an authorized dealer. They promised to send you original parts and even warn you not to try to fix it yourself. Breath deeply. It is a profound statement.

In other words, there is no product. You should try to fix yourself and no customer should try to fix someone else's product, because because the company is only interested in your name, they want their success to be tied to your name, the company knows that if something goes wrong in this product, your full name is your reputation your character is in trouble so they will do whatever they say send it back to Canada we will pay for a product is more important than the cost they have to pay to restore the product there is no room for expenses why name image have you ever heard this?

The company has a bad image. God says let's put our name on this and then God says now we will give this product a manual. The manual is simply the laws set by the manufacturer that must be followed to protect the product and warranty feature laws are never to destroy a product. Laws are given to protect the product. Why do we hate laws so much? We do not understand its purpose. They are to guarantee the function. I can never again be a failure in life. Why do I know how to do it? success, that's why I learned some laws and that's why you won't miss any of these sessions this week because you have to learn that getting out of a crisis is 100 laws based on laws, they have no severity of crisis, you have no idea what is happening in your economy, let I say slow gravity doesn't care about economics, you jump off a roof, bad economy, good economy, no economy is likely to bring you down.

You get my point, in other words, laws do not respect the laws of a government on Earth, for example, God made your rectum with a law it is an exit excretion point that is a law that is a biological law don't look at me that's a scientifically sound biological law my hip is an out no legislation from any government can turn that into an in the laws don't change the law I thought I'd throw it out in case some of you get a little excited about some things. Nature does not respect any parliament, they cannot vote to change the natural laws of nature and God has built in the systems of it, including You have laws in the product that guarantee its function to protect its name.

That's why when you failed in Genesis 3, the manufacturer said that if I have to go down there alone, die and shed my own blood, I will spare no expense to restore my product. Why didn't God save you for him? I'm sorry for you, let me try again. God did not save you for you. All this that God is doing is not for you. Do you believe God blesses you? God is not blessing you. you, him protecting his name, listen, God is going to take you out this week or whatever you have to face, not for you, I want that put in your face, you say, Lord, deliver me by your name, come on, say it since you're gone for the first time in your life I don't know what you're facing this week but tell God don't do it for me do it for your own reputation put pressure on it your success is good for God's sake if you fail you embarrass the company that's why he died in the cross to protect his own name that is why he was resurrected to protect his own name that is why he gave you the Holy Spirit to protect his own name that is why he lives with you every day through the Holy Spirit he protects his name that is why he wants you to follow his laws he protects his own name that's why I want you to be fair to protect your own name because your name is at stake when you fail your success is good for God, write this point please, it is very important here, success is not a search.

Remember? I started by saying that everyone wants to be successful. The problem is that you are chasing him. Successful people never try to be successful. Thank you, if you try to chase success it will escape you. success is the result of obedience to the laws a car doesn't try to run well just give it what it needs that's all and it will run well you don't have to try to make your car run well it's not a chase just follow the laws of the motor and it runs well that's how it is with life you were trying to be great you will never be great you are trying to be successful you would not be successful you are trying to be prosperous you will miss it the bible actually says that he who chases money money takes wings that is in the bible the more you run after him the more he runs away from you why doesn't it happen that way in fact Jesus said something that is so strange he said seek first the kingdom of God and his righteous laws and all these things will be added to you, they will persecute you, you attract things.

I received a phone call this week from the chairman of the NFL board of directors. This is the board and the guy called me five times trying to reach me. I called him back. I said yes, sir, he said. I've been trying to track it down for a while. I said yes, sir, and he said, look, we're having some problems with NFL players. They're having difficulties and if you talk about how their marriages are breaking down and how they're having difficulties in all these different areas and he says, "You man, we want to come and talk to the NFL players." it happened two days ago and he says I said I said yes he said we have finished some of his material we want to hire him as a consultant he said we will also write a book for NFL players transitioning from sports into normal natural life he says we want make at least three chapters in the book we'll talk about royalties later I said yes sir now this is my point this is my point I'm still a tomboy who lives on an island seven miles wide I didn't move to the United States to try get a better job, he came for me from the highest level and I wasn't even looking for it all I do is obey the laws of God obey the laws of God obey the laws of God and these things add up to success it is the result of obedience to the laws.

I want you to know that this week, getting out of a crisis is a matter of law. You know, my pilots took me there this morning and I thank Captain Thurston. No, he teaches me a lot, said Pastor Miles, when you encounter a storm on a plane, he says you go back to the basics, you don't try to correct things on the plane, you go back to basics and go back to the laws of flying alone. Obey the laws and the plane gets out of the storm on its own. Are you in a crisis? Don't panic, go back to laws like tithing.

Okay, God, I'm broke, let me tie him up. I have an orange. Let me give you two oranges. away why let me go back to the basics you get so sophisticated you know I have to try to wait for this to happen I have to try to calculate what we are going to happen God says look just go back to the basics bake a cake for someone and give it to them I I want to show you this . First I want to define success for you. Let me tell you what success is. Don't write this. Success is not what you have done.

Compared to what others have done, you will always find someone dumber than you. You will always find someone who can't run as fast as you, so don't try to compare yourself to anyone. You will always succeed against someone else. So success is not what you have done compared to what I have done and that is not. Success is competition, so what is success? Success is what you have done compared to what you were created to do. How do you measure success by what you have done compared to what you were created to do? For example, if a bird that was created to fly never flies that bird is a failure but if that bird prayed to fly it succeeds so success is first of all discovering what you are supposed to do what you were born to do. doing what you were created to do is your gifts and then you forget about the competition and seek to fulfill that gift, that is success and you do everything in your power to continue seeking to fulfill the gift, do not worry about success, serve the gift, you know those four Bahamian kids who ran in the Olympics recently.

You only saw them on TV, you haven't seen their training habits, their eating habits. The eldest of them tried to score a goal many times without failing, but he kept coming back. How about you come back? That doesn't happen by chance, you know? why we all love a winner Because deep in our DNA, in the heart of our spiritual being, is the spirit of a creature that knows how to succeed and when we see it it makes us identify with it, that's why we don't like to see people. Who comes last? The good news is that you are here because you won.

Do you know that when your mother and father went to bed, your father released more than 500 million scientifically proven sperm, an average of 500 million and they all rushed towards an egg in the woman? Your mother and those sperm were fighting to get there first and guess who made it. That means 499 million sperm lost the race because you want to. You are here because you won. You're not here trying to win. Lend a hand. You, winner. Hallelujah tell your neighbor I did it I beat them all I won the race I started as a runner and I started as a winner give God a hand to win before you even start the race huh, that's why you're here now you're here You have to find out why I came That's where the success part is and I have to discover what I am, what my gift is, what my task is, what my reason is, my purpose for being here, don't miss the night of fantasy, come on. to talk about that how to find it because that is success success is not in your work take note of this please success is the fulfillment of the purpose and the task for which you were created a seed is only successful when it becomes fruit tree, you know, if a seed becomes a tree, it is still not successful, it must bear fruit and the fruit must have a seed, a successful seed, in other words, if you only do half of your life, you still will not be successful if you go a to do some of what you are supposed to do you are not yet successful we are supposed to die like the apostle Paul I have finished my race I have kept the faith I am as he says I am like a libation I have been poured out, he says there is no left nothing, that is success, success is dying, empty, success is, I have done everything I was set out to do here, please friends listen to me, success is simply fulfillment and fulfillment of your purpose, the purpose of a fish is to swim in the ocean and become one of the systems that really cleans the ocean that fish swim has to swim to be successful is successful if nothing is why God made sure he could swim because he had to protect his name he made the fish swim like this It's better for the fish to swim, so he gave the fish the ability to swim so that it could be successful.

Oh, whatever you were born to do, he built into you the ability to do it for the sake of his name. I come with good news this week, your future is in the gift he gave you you know why we call it a gift you didn't have to work hard for it it came with the product you know when you look at this iPad thank you Pastor Pat for a second it's our package it has all kinds of things in it, it came with it, it came with everything needed to be an iPad, you don't have to pray for nothing to be added to this, there is no fasting in prayer, it comes with this when you came to this earth, you landed, boom , you came with everything necessary to accomplish your task that is why going to college does not make you successful you do not go to school to obtain your gift education cannot give you a gift refine your gift but it can give it to you your gift was built in by the manufacturer that is why your gift should not be a victim of the economic crisis cannot destroy a gift crisis manifests the gifts most gifts are buried in a career and in getting ahead of myself here in a job you had for 40 years buried in the cemetery of your career that is why God fired you toobtain your gift of being Risen so that you can stop thinking about anything else sometimes your job is your greatest enemy because it becomes a cemetery for your work the problem with the Caribbean people is that we have been built to be employed by the government, This is one of the biggest crises.

According to our historical mentality, we look to the politician for our future. Excuse me, I see that God never gave Adam a table, he never gave Adam a chair, he never cooked a single meal for Adam, God hid the chair in the the tree gave him the mind a tree said work with it I'll give you a brand with 500 billion cells use them please stop talking to the government to bring you everything that is why the curse of our region is consumerism we consume we do not produce producers are thinkers consumers are hoarders that is why we import 90% of what what we consume we don't produce anything what we are made for we depend on the system to provide us with employment maybe that's why the system doesn't work maybe that's why the system spits on you it detects you because the system tells you go, think about starting something from within let me show you something Joshua God said Joshua keep this book of the law on your lips Joshua was a young man like you wanted to do something good in life God says here is the secret keep this book of the law on your lips meditate on it day and night he says and have Be careful to do everything written in it and then it says the results is this you will make your way prosperous and you will have good success both the things you are trying to achieve are related to the law do you think you are ready to look are you ready to work hard group of work no no no no no you can't work hard and still be broke ask the person next to you don't look right, don't look at how they are now, hard work, that does it, slaves work hard, they study history, slaves are hardworking people, they don't even own themselves, so working hard is not the secret. their laws if you keep my laws meditate speak of them on your lips he says they will do what you will do prosperous your path that means you do your own prosperity through what you make the laws I want you to forget about the people who talk more about crisis laws of no crisis I am going to teach you some laws this week to help you understand that you can get out of anything by being in that house you are not activating some laws that can make you prosper in your own home you have an oven that doesn't work except once a week, that's a sin, you only use your car to go to work.

There's something wrong with you being able to serve some people with your car. Pick up an old lady from Jerry's. I have to take it out every week, once a week. was your car there is a law he says you will make your way prosper you have good success look Jeremiah God says 29 verse 11. I know the plans I have for you God says plans to prosper you type of God is this now why he want you to prosper homonym I plan that my product prosper he says what else to not hurt you why because my name is in you I can't have a broken product that is bad for my reputation as a company you know I pray when I have a need, I say Lord, this is not good for you, I can tell everyone and the needs continue to be met, don't pray for you, I have a plan, he says for you, I plan to prosper you, not harm you, I plan I give you hope and I have to make sure you reach the destination.

What is the destination? The destiny of a bird is to fly. I have to make sure you make it fly. It just never relents to become a treated fruit. I have to make sure. you get to the stage of bearing fruit I have to make sure you make it to the end because my name is on the line. I will come to tell you an announcement today with all my spirit that God will make you successful for his For the love of your name, before we leave, he just raise your hands and thank him for a couple of seconds.

Just thank him for what he's about to do to get you out. For the love of his name, just thank him for a minute. I know the plans I have for you. He says plans to prosper you plan not to hurt yourself but to give you hope hope is coming today I hope you come out hope hope hope hope hope hope hope he is saying I will come out for the sake of my name I am going to fix this for my reputation I am going to get you out for the sake of my name give it some praise right here I'm going to give you hope hope I have hope because my future is inevitable I will be successful because it is good for God look at this next Verse Ecclesiastes 10 says that if the ax is dull and its edge has no shape, So it takes a lot of strength.

Do you ever try to chop down a tree with a Dell axe? The tree is never hurt. Who gets hurt? Who works hard? You are successful? No. working hard is not successful a dull ax is hard work and the tree laughs at you and all the calluses built up on your hands the blood started to form in your palms and the tree says what are you doing if the ax is made with a lot of force it is necessary but I like the following statement but with skill how success comes quickly but with what skill I look at the word skill the Hebrew word means knowledge of the laws a skillful person is not a person who obtained a doctorate a skillful person is a person who knows the laws your car stops working on the road you stop on the side you try to start it and the car just clicks what do you do first you suck your teeth because the bahamian voice reacts and then you start talking to the car some very interesting statements this old, stupid and stupid car says he knows exactly what this crazy car is going to say why this stupid car always stops at the wrong time and you get into this whole discussion third step you get out of the car, you look at it and then Kick it, stupid stupid car, so now you become violent against the car, the car standing there, going, why are you talking to me, why are you cursing at me, why are you hitting me?

I haven't done anything to you, you blame me for your ignorance. what's wrong with me you don't know the laws by which I operate that's all and since you don't know the laws by which I operate you were attacking me and then somehow a thought in your brain says pick up your phone your cell phone and call the mechanic , you call a mechanic, the mechanic gets up in 10 minutes, he shows up, that was the problem and you say, I don't know, this dumb old car wouldn't stop the mechanic, okay, no, no problem, go, go, go and sit in the car. turn the key, click, he said, turn it again, click, okay, I know it's bad, it opens, the hood opens there for about two minutes, it's tired again, he said ready, now you were there for two hours cursing two minutes, it's over, what's the difference between me?

I haven't received the money yet. What is the difference between two hours and two minutes? Knowledge of skills. I've been working so hard trying to make my life right by working so hard. I'm trying to have a good life, trying to work so hard for it. I've been working so hard, I'm like God is saying, look, you're kicking life, you're cursing life, you need skill, look at that verse again, if the ax is dull, that means you're bored, you don't know how to fix this car. Isn't the guy with the skill coming? He can even hear what happens when you get lost.

You can even smell what isn't going to work. Success is not luck. You have to make sure you continue to obey the laws when I advise people who would. Tell them look you broke a law and they never look good, listen you want your marriage to work you must there are some laws there is no magic I can't pray for you to have a good marriage there are some laws involved in this. There is no devil in this, your marriage has legal problems. I was blaming the devil for the laws. If the ax is boring, it takes a lot of strength without success, but with skill, success comes even quickly.

The guy said two minutes are up. Now the problem is. when it's over, how I see you in Prosper, okay, prosperity comes from the laws the guy brought some laws to the car, now he will prosper and you will not prosper, you are losing if you didn't know the laws about God, he would do it himself. You don't get your money to prosper. You take your money to the dentist because you can't get your teeth fixed. You take your money to the doctor because you can't fix your body. You take your money to the lawyer because you can understand the contract in other words, when a person develops his skill, you take his money, it's a law, so why would the NFL call me, they saw a skill and believe me, your skill is develop for a long time without pay just keep working on it just keep working sometimes you have to work with the kids first you know some of you won't be ready don't go work at children's church just to work on it I learned to teach by speaking with kids who didn't know when I was wrong let me say it again you won't be a public speaker go teach at children's church the kids don't know when you don't know well go work at the daycare talk to them the babies tell them why they don't you know I know if you are making a mistake practice your gift at every opportunity stop looking for a check look for an opportunity work your gift work your gift then he says if the ax is done The edge is not sharp you have to work hard and do nothing but with the laws skill makes it successful let me give you this last thing before I go to write this please Luke Jesus said seek first the king of God and these things will be the ones that will be given to you too do not be afraid Little flock belongs to your father much glad to give you the kingdom Luke 4 42 says I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to other peoples also because that is why I was sent I am preparing something here I would tell us what this Kingdom is giving us this country now this is what is unique Matthew him says that the knowledge of the secrets of this Kingdom has been given to you knowledge of what secrets write that write the word Secrets now it says that there are some secret laws that you are supposed to learn when you enter into this lifestyle of the Kingdom.

He says it's not given to outsiders, meaning someone could be right next to you losing their job, losing their business, slacking off their whole life and you're right next to them, you're winning. all kinds of prosperity earning your life earning your business now walk how come you're always working and mine isn't working? The difference is that there are some secrets. He calls them secrets. Another verse that makes me interesting. He says. I will give you the

keys

in plural. from the Kingdom of Heaven, everything you open on Earth will be unlocked in heaven, everything you lock up will be locked in heaven, you have some keys, love me, your keys, someone has some keys, candy, okay, this guy He just gave me a bunch of keys, don't forget, okay, what I'm going to show you.

I have a lot of children. I can walk all day saying. I have some keys. I have some keys. The problem is that I don't know what they are for. The keys have secrets. I will do that. I will give you the secrets I will give you the keys in plural to the Kingdom The keys are laws This is a law for a certain place Suppose this key is for a safe deposit box with two million dollars inside, but I don't know if I have any keys, I separated , I've got some keys, Sidra Road, I've got some keys under the bridge, I've got some keys, two million dollars and I'm sleeping on a piece of cardboard with keys, I'm holding the Bible, I say, I've got some keys, that's a lot. of keys that you have in your hand right now the book is full of keys it put you under the bridge that's why we are going to talk about it this week you have to learn what the secret of the Keys is the only person who knows the secret to these keys is he who holds the keys look at this the keys are laws write this the keys are what laws the word for keys in the scriptures is the same word as principles laws precepts schemes these are principles schemes I have a car and I am I keep walking because I don't know what car open the key.

I can be in the sea of ​​cars and keep walking because the keys have a secret. I don't know the laws, write this. Laws are universal, meaning they work anywhere. two laws are permanent gravity is always present in any country Fire burns in England it also burns in China and burns in Calabash Bay China and England and fire do not have different fires it is a law heat burns My point is if you learn the keys it doesn't matter Wherever you live, I told you that I don't need to leave the Bahamas to be successful, success comes to find you in the Bahamas if you work with laws number three, principles and laws work anywhere, that is, in a crisis outside of a crisis under crisis behind the crisis it works once you get laws number four the principles of the laws are not partial they do not respect the person stop saying that Pastor miles had a break I did not have a break I grew up among cockroaches and rats man but I I learned the laws of the teenager when you were shooting marbles I was reading the Bible, that's all we use that time differently, you've been smoking dope, I've been smoking the word, stop, contract, it's as simple as that, how do you know? misses?

Do you use your time? Don't get jealous of a guy who learned the ropes early. That's why I'm standing here teaching the keys. You have to learn the keys so that you can change your life and make your path prosperous. Stop waiting. how to change the economy in your own life we ​​will learn this week how to change the economy in your own life. NoThere is a lack of money in the world, there is nothing to run to the Moon, there is not a dollar left on this planet, everything is still here but they wealth follows laws that do not follow desires money that comes money does not come you have to play you have that work some laws the laws are not partial God does not like the Chinese, the whites, the yellows or the blacks. people or you read God, it's not partial gravity, it will kill anyone, right?

I will show you that on Wednesday night I will give you a key that you will never forget. You're going to get out of this situation. We are not going to wait. No government policy. We have our own government. politics our government policies never change, they work every time principles number six of the laws can never be broken, cannot be broken, guarantees a gravity, rather, you can't say gravity. I'm going to jump 10 stories building a rebuke in the name of Jesus, you will. I don't work gravity say thank you very much I'll kill you while you're berating me don't break the laws and expect success that's the point I'm making don't break the laws they break you let me tell you something friends what makes a good counselor is someone who knows the laws, all this psychology stuff you're getting into listen to the psychologist get divorced four times you get marriage advice I did some Freudian studies when I was in college you know about Freudian theories all this deep stuff I'm like, okay, this It's interesting, yes, but now, what about God's laws and natural laws?

You don't break the laws and earn the shepherd's miles. I don't do this yet, no problem. I'll see you on the other side. of your problem this is how I feel good if I don't see the laws they don't take anything prisoner so if I give you advice it won't be what I think you know I always dedicate myself to the law I guess it's okay, this is the law this is the law of God I never give personal advice you can't give up I give you self laws about gasoline gasoline you don't need prayer or fasting or tongues go to the gas station we don't have to be spiritual about this whatever some people are so creepy and some of you probably yes, trust in the Lord, that's what it means.

I say that the Lord, the person broke the law. He tells them to correct it. Let me tell you one more thing while I'm at it. to a door and I try to open the door with this key and I start speaking in tongues and praying in tongues and reading the Bible and quoting Dr. Monroe's books and you know hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, the door still It's closed and then I get ready. No, God does not answer prayers because you pray loudly, shout, speak in tongues, or roll on the ground. You have to come with keys. your emotions don't bless you you have emotions after blessing God hey no I need a key in the right key too come with any key it's a law the camera used the wrong law to try to do something right here yeah , I can marry him. even though he is a Christian and I can save him, it's okay, but just a country to ask for advice.

I love him. You also love a closed door. I love this door. Am I telling you that you still need the right key? Also, look at principles and laws number seven. inherent judgment remember I told you that success is predictable but I also said that failure is predictable too yes, if you stay on the ceiling you are going to worry about gravity, cut the ceiling, gravity does its job now if you jump from a four floors. Did God kill you? Did the devil kill you? Who killed you? Allah killed you. Judgment is built into the law, so when you break a law, the breach is not a gift from the devil or God, it is the result of a violation, so you can do it.

Don't blame anyone for your failure in life and the only way to correct failure is to go back and take it back. I said: let me go back and obey the laws. A lady came to see me. She was a Seventh-day Adventist. You know, she's telling me one day. She said you don't worship on the right day. I said she's fine, I said fine, praise the Lord and she's working with me and I mentioned education, she was very inflexible and every day she came to me, you know? You're, you're going to hell, I said, okay, everyone worships on Sunday, okay, Saturday, okay, two months later she came to see me, can I see you?

I said, sure, she sat down, she's not crying, that's it. That's what happened, she's like pregnant and I'm not married, so I asked her what were you doing on Saturday. You know people are amazing at trying to save it or break another one and hope to succeed. So you said she said, what am I going to do? I haven't told my parents yet I don't know my whole life is destroyed the pretty and beautiful young girl I said oh well I said I'll tell you something uh you know we have to deal with your parents I'll be happy to meet with them and talk to them for you and we can fix this with them uh she said you know I don't know what to do with the baby I said well you can't kill the baby now that the baby is innocent the baby didn't do any of that The baby is pure, you're the one who was wrong and I said, uh, what you're experiencing is the harvest, anyone understand my point, I have it built in, having sex with a baby, she said, can you pray it goes away?

I told him not at all. man, plant it, some of you are harvesting things right now that you wish you hadn't planted, that's life you don't break the laws, they break you, you don't violate them, they violate you Judgment God doesn't even judge you the Lord judges you is integrated in the law we want to succeed in your life and prosper in your life you have to obey some laws you don't pay those laws you are going to fight all your life we ​​have to get it right number eight the principles and laws protect the product that is why God gave us laws to protect us they protect the product I give you a verse God says you can tell yourself when you become rich and prosperous the strength of my hands has produced this wealth for me he said be careful but remember the Lord because it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth and thus he fulfilled and confirms his Pact that he made with your father to this day he says look there are some laws that connect that I activated in your life gave you the ability to produce good, they are saying no, lottery, no, This is not happening just because you are lucky, it is I who gave you the ability to produce wealth, I gave you the skills, the laws to produce wealth, closing your goal.

Therefore, in life it is not about being employed but about being deployed and that is a secret to getting out of a crisis it is not employment it is deployment in other words employment prepares you for deployment deployment activates your gifts energizes your life It is the juice that makes you get up in the morning when a person unfolds, does not wait for instructions, finds something that is so pleasant to do that he starts his own activity. The display is the use and service of his natural gift to the world and everyone came with it. one or two in other words the future of your life is not in a job it is in your seed your gift the lord spoke to my heart he said I am going to give everyone clear instructions this week on what to do for the next 10 months are you getting out of this you are going to get out of this you are going to create your own environment create your own resources you are going to create your own income there has to be a change in thinking stop being a victim of the news no longer listen to the news you are not in that system you are not controlled by that system you go to your work do not depend on it begin to ignite your gift within you it is the richest place in the world world, it is that unpublished seed, not germinated, you have remained stagnant just as you go from your work to your home, to your television, your bed, there has to be something more and the problem is that you are not the owner of your life until after five you have to reach the point where your gift becomes more important than your work go to your work I don't misunderstand but do not trust work in your gift work in your gift the first thing God said to man work Genesis 2 15.

First Command to work, what did I say, work? The first command God gave to man was work, not marriage, work, not woman, work, not a job, carpentry is the word Eragon, it means to become, to become, what the hell is he talking about? God that God puts his mind on God and says: become what he is talking about well, it is like a seed with a tree trapped inside. Become a bird but fly trapped inside. God calls that work books about two potential books. I wrote five chapters alone at work. Go read them, the secret to my life has become work means not doing something become yourself command become yourself the last thing they encourage a Bahamian to do in my country is become they say find a job get an education they say to that you can get a job so you can pay bills and then die they never say find out who you are I'm becoming that's why it's so hard for you Terry it's hard for you because you decided I want to be and they don't have room for you your products don't make sense for they want you to work for someone else work become God will never demand what no longer exists and you who are supposed to become his word work is like a seed that becomes a tree is like a is like a bird flying now I Just I want to warn you about this last part because I think it's very important.

Not every job is your job. That's why you hate Monday mornings because you go to a place that doesn't allow you to convert. You are stuck. You go to that. like a bird in a cage, you know, a cage allows the bird to fly, you know, but only to a certain limit they control you, they cage you, you are still a bird and you can still fly a million miles, put yourself in a cage, you ability. He hasn't let your restrictions hold you back and they say this as far as you go every Monday every Tuesday every Wednesday from Thursday Friday as far as you go we have in the cage until 5 p.m.

If we let you out, that's why you run home in a car. You feel so free that you cancel it. You should say it out loud. If I'm going to tell them, I have a problem. Oh, you're not going to get out of the cage. What do you do? go straight to the couch turn on the television and do something stupid watch television this week ends no more television you have to activate that gift you are going to take advantage of that hidden gift that treasure not every job is your job this is your job it is never your job your job It's what you get paid to do your job It's what you were born to do They are different Your job gives you a salary Your job gives you satisfaction Your job gives you pain Your job gives you prosperity I once wanted to say Bill Gates I tell you I will never forget that day Tacoma Washington What a day it was!

I met a man who used to work for IBM. He used to work for IBM. Did you know he used to work for IBM? Bill Gates worked in the programming department. He used to write the program, you know, he dosed this and the doors that he used to write for all of you. One day he decided that he could simplify this, so he went to his own house and found a formula to create these icons. It's not hard but soft and he said we will put all the hard work behind the scenes and just have one desk.

I just click on the icons and the work is done behind instead of being placed on the doors below. That's what we do for you behind. we just let you click, he took it to the IBM board and said I had an idea, they presented it to the people, he stood there before the board, he showed them everything, he said, this will work, the board says impossible, Bill Gates, they said it. It will never work, but give it to us, we'll keep it. He said no, no, no, no, I want to keep this, if you don't want it, he would accept it and he resigned from IBM.

I went home, to his garage. and he built the first software in his garage. IBM is still trying to recover. They might have owned Microsoft, but they wouldn't let a man out of his cage, so he left the cage and now every IBM computer has his software. I have a feeling that something You're going to break out of the cage in the next few weeks God is going to give you something that no one is going to have It's going to be born right here in your environment and they won't believe you the first time Hold on to your dream Your job can becoming your job what you want to do is go to a place where you really work you go to a place where you become that is the goal some of you are already in that place you go to a place where you really use your gift that's wonderful that's great you have to leave there at least not stay there now develop your gift but not every job is your job but you can find your job in your job your job can be in your job some people have found it when you leave here today Please come back here for the second session.

I am going to give you the four principles of how to get out of your job, get to work and you will no longer depend on the systems. I found mine. I am not a victim we cannot be victims of the system being in the world but not of the world being in the system says but do not allow the system to make you a caged word when you leave here today ask God to show you your work and your work and see the difference you are glad that you came out today something good is going to happen to you something good is going to happen to you hallelujah thank you once again for listening to this message we hope it has been a blessing For you, our goal is to show you new paths and opportunities so that you can Discover your purpose.
