Latest / Daily Transformation / How To Receive the Help from God
Transcript
- 0:00We grew up hearing certain statements and certain belief
- 0:04systems that were never never true and even we believed that
- 0:08they were in the Bible. 1 of it is Heaven help those who help
- 0:11themselves. I remember vividly, you know,
- 0:14while I was, you know, a teenager, while I was very
- 0:16young, you know, I even people that I respected my principals
- 0:21in school do this. My proprietress, you know, they
- 0:23always make that declaration, especially if they want you to
- 0:26do something that is not righteous.
- 0:29They'll say, oh, after all, even the Bible says Heaven help those
- 0:32who help themselves. So we grew up hearing such
- 0:35statements and we believe that it was real until later on in
- 0:39life and then discover that that statement was true, so.
- 0:43It means that there are many things that you can believe
- 0:45today in your life and you. May even think it's the right
- 0:48thing and you carry it as a mentality.
- 0:52And that's what Jesus said by your by our tradition, we
- 0:55nullify the word of God in an actual sense.
- 0:58If you can't help yourself, then God, you don't need the help of
- 1:01God. Because most times they say, oh,
- 1:03God will only help you if you help yourself, then it means
- 1:06that you have already substituted the help of God,
- 1:08that you don't need his help. Because if I need the help of
- 1:11God, and if God is willing to help me, how then am I able to
- 1:15help myself? So most times they put you in a
- 1:18position where you do something against the plan of God, against
- 1:21the will of God, or you even derail in time in terms of in
- 1:25pursuit of that which God has called you.
- 1:27But in an actual sense, God wants men who are broken, men
- 1:30who come to the end of themselves, men who realize that
- 1:33without Him helping them, they will not be able to achieve
- 1:37much. Men will who realize that
- 1:39without the help of God they cannot do much.
- 1:43So that is the kind of man that God is looking for.
- 1:45God is not looking for men that can help themselves.
- 1:47No, He's looking for men that can depend on Him.
- 1:51And let me tell you the truth, it is that understanding that we
- 1:53put in a place where you realize that your sufficiency cannot be
- 1:56of yourself, outside of yourself.
- 1:58Your human frailty alone does not have what it takes to bring
- 2:01anything great to be able to accomplish as far as your
- 2:04destiny is concerned. So such statement as heaven help
- 2:07those who help themselves is not God standard.
- 2:11God never has said that. So it means that you must begin
- 2:14to check what are the other things that you might have
- 2:17believed. That is a mentality is a culture
- 2:20of the day is an idea of the day that today is delaying from
- 2:23receiving the help of God that you need.
- 2:25No wonder you know many people do not experience the hand of
- 2:29God as they ought to. Why?
- 2:30Because they run with that mentality and Romans who said
- 2:33Romans was to say, do not be conformed to this world, but be
- 2:36a transformed through the renewal of your mind that you
- 2:38will be able to prove what is that good, acceptable and
- 2:41perfect will of God. So it means that the custom of
- 2:43this world will give you a notion of you trying to do
- 2:46things, trying to do this, trying to become this.
- 2:49But God is not calling us into that life.
- 2:51God is calling us into a life where we depend on him and him
- 2:54alone, where you know that he's your source and indeed your
- 2:57source not. You know, it's easy to say God
- 2:58is my source based on on mere confession or mere declaration.
- 3:03But imagine you come to the realization that actually
- 3:05without the help of God, I will not be able to accomplish much.
- 3:08That is where God wants us to be in.
- 3:10And the moment you get into that reality, then you will see how
- 3:13heaven will truly help you. Because now you are helpless.
- 3:16Now your sufficiency is of God. Now you know when you are
- 3:19pressed on every side, you cannot be in displayed.
- 3:21Even if you're knocked down, you cannot be abandoned by God.
- 3:23Why? Because he's your source.
- 3:25He's your strength, you know. So that is the message I have
- 3:28for someone today. I want you to run this year,
- 3:30this season, with the consciousness of the help of
- 3:33God. Man outside of God is limited.
- 3:35Man with God is unlimited. Man outside of God has so many
- 3:39impossibilities. Man with God, everything becomes
- 3:42possible. That is how we see result in
- 3:44this Kingdom and that is how you can enjoy all that God has for
- 3:48you. This is the daily
- 3:49transformation. See you next time.
- 3:51Bye bye.
