Latest / Daily Transformation / Power, Pleasure & Emptiness: Why Only God Truly Satisfies
Transcript
- 0:00A wise man once says that everything is vanity.
- 0:04Imagine a life whereby you came to this world without anything,
- 0:10but yet you live or you grow chasing everything and
- 0:15eventually when your time reaches to crossover to the
- 0:19other side of the divide, you still leave everything behind.
- 0:22And that begins to bring equation for us to pander on
- 0:26what really satisfy for many of us.
- 0:29We might have come across Jeffrey S Epstein and we see how
- 0:35many files that was released of many of the millionaires and
- 0:40billionaires in the world. These are men that have fame,
- 0:44had great success. In fact, for so many of you who
- 0:47will be listening to this, they may be momentous even, but we
- 0:51see the many pathetic things that they began to do.
- 0:55Why? Because beyond the satisfaction
- 0:57that money brings, there are many many things and void in our
- 1:01heart that will begin to find ourselves in, especially if we
- 1:05miss the major thing. That is why the wisest and the
- 1:08richest king ever that lived. He says everything is vanity.
- 1:12He said after he has made so many research, after he has
- 1:16married over 1000 wife for pleasure, after he has a rule in
- 1:21his time. The Bible says that there were
- 1:22so many gold, you know, in the cities, in the nation he was
- 1:26ruling. It means in fact, there was no
- 1:29prosperity like his reign. But that man came again and said
- 1:33everything is vanity. It means that there's another
- 1:35thing that can truly satisfy a man, hunger for somebody.
- 1:38Listening to this, you're in that place where you think the
- 1:41moment I get this level financially, I'll be satisfied.
- 1:45That only when you get there, you now realize there's
- 1:47something much more. Because man is designed never to
- 1:50be satisfied. It's always like in a long game,
- 1:53there's always that desire for more.
- 1:54There's only something more you want to achieve and which is not
- 1:58bad. It's good to have that price.
- 2:00But beyond that, when you carve an idol out of those things,
- 2:04then it becomes something that eventually will not be that
- 2:09which God desire for your life. So much more than that.
- 2:13The question is that what really satisfied me?
- 2:15What can you do that you said? I drive my joy, I drive my
- 2:19satisfaction from this. Since we have realized that
- 2:22money may not really bring you that satisfaction, realize that
- 2:27fame will not. Realize that women will not so,
- 2:31or even pleasures will not. So what is that thing?
- 2:35It means that there is a God factor that we must begin to
- 2:38look into critically because the only thing that can give a man
- 2:41true satisfaction is God and that is why we must prioritize.
- 2:46I will work with God more than anything because at the end of
- 2:49the day, you can't think God like I do tell people like a
- 2:52luggage. And your work with God must not
- 2:54be passive and it should not be something only in the day of
- 2:57trouble. Then you remember you have a
- 2:58God. Everything about your life must
- 3:01be about him because at the end of the day you are returning
- 3:04back to him at the end of the day, only him that can fill that
- 3:08void. You know, Paul said that I'm
- 3:10content with what I have and he said godliness with contentment
- 3:13is great game. Why is that?
- 3:15A man like that will say I am contented because of that which
- 3:20God has made available for me. So it's not to say you should
- 3:23not press for me, or it's not to say you should not hunger for
- 3:25me. But it's to say that in the
- 3:27midst of that there's something much more you can look into
- 3:31because it is only God that can truly satisfy a man.
- 3:34So it means that in our press for more, in our desire for
- 3:37fame, in our desire to be known, we must know that the desire
- 3:41will be replaced with knowing Him and making Him known.
- 3:45So it's not really about you. That's why John said I must
- 3:48decrease that price may increase.
- 3:50Why? Because it is only when he's
- 3:52known, then truly, truly you have dissatisfaction.
- 3:55It is only when you know him that you come to the point.
- 3:59That's why possible that I may know him and the power of his
- 4:01resurrection. So every other thing that you
- 4:04are impossible of will not give you that thing that you're
- 4:06looking for $1,000,000 in an account will not give you that.
- 4:10Only mansions in all the major cities of the world will not.
- 4:14Only God that can satisfy you. I hope this message medicines to
- 4:18someone today and this is a daily transformation.
- 4:22Feel free to share this with someone out there.
- 4:24See you next time. Bye bye.
