- 0:29Speaker 1: Then tidings of these things came onto the ears of
- 0:32Speaker 1: the Church, which was in Jerusalem, and they sent forth

- 0:54Speaker 2: onto the Lord.
- 0:57Speaker 1: Welcome to fate feed Episode one hundred and eighty four.
- 1:02Speaker 2: Purpose of heart, purpose of heart.
- 1:08Speaker 1: We live in a world where motivational speakers tell you
- 1:11Speaker 1: that direction comes before purples. Fantastic. We have no argument
- 1:16Speaker 1: to that. But that's the world system. But when it
- 1:18Speaker 1: comes to the understanding of God's system, which we see
- 1:23Speaker 1: in the person of Jesus Christ, we know that purples
- 1:28Speaker 1: comes before direction.
- 1:31Speaker 2: Before you start moving.
- 1:32Speaker 1: Now, the Acts of the apostles the Bible telling us
- 1:34Speaker 1: that Barnabas had an expectation of the people, and that
- 1:37Speaker 1: expectation was that they will with purples of heart hold
- 1:41Speaker 1: on to God. Now that purpose of heart is talking
- 1:44Speaker 1: about a place of intentionality, a place of certainty, and
- 1:49Speaker 1: a place of the knowledge of God dwelling in the
- 1:54Speaker 1: heart of a man.
- 1:55Speaker 2: Now we see this severally in the Old Testament.
- 1:58Speaker 1: Let's look at the person Danieliel purposed in his heart
- 2:02Speaker 1: Daniel Chapter one, read invest eight. But Daniel purposed in
- 2:07Speaker 1: his heart. He purposed. When you say someone purpose, that
- 2:11Speaker 1: means I have I have planned. This is not just
- 2:13Speaker 1: a decision, This is a layout, this is a structure,
- 2:18Speaker 1: this is this is what.
- 2:19Speaker 2: Will determine my future.
- 2:20Speaker 1: So when he talks about purpose, we are talking about
- 2:23Speaker 1: things that will determine your future at the long run. Daniel,
- 2:27Speaker 1: from the beginning when he entered the kingdom, he had
- 2:30Speaker 1: purposed in his heart. So he had recognized from the
- 2:35Speaker 1: beginning where he was going to. Now that does not
- 2:38Speaker 1: mean that the king's meat was poisoned. That does not
- 2:40Speaker 1: mean that the king myat was bad. There were other believers.
- 2:43Speaker 1: But there is this this thing that we are talking
- 2:45Speaker 1: about here said with purpose of heart, they.
- 2:48Speaker 2: Will cleave onto.
- 2:49Speaker 1: So Daniel saw that as an expression of cleaning onto
- 2:52Speaker 1: the Lord, holding the consciousness of God as my application. So,
- 2:56Speaker 1: if you, as an individual do not understand these purpos of.
- 2:59Speaker 2: Art, we miss it in the pursuit of what your faith.
- 3:05Speaker 1: Now bringing clarity to this message, purpos is practical. Purpos
- 3:11Speaker 1: brings out practicality. When someone says, I am called for
- 3:16Speaker 1: these purpos, there is a practical angle that reveals what
- 3:20Speaker 1: the purpose of his calling. The Bible says in efficient
- 3:23Speaker 1: Shapa one verse seventeen, that the eyes of your understanding
- 3:26Speaker 1: be what enlightening will be enlightening poor, praying that you
- 3:30Speaker 1: will know what is the hope of his calling? Now purpos,
- 3:34Speaker 1: he now says, and what is the riches of the
- 3:37Speaker 1: glory of his inheritance? And you see how long that's it.
- 3:40Speaker 1: It's time to show you that there is a practical
- 3:42Speaker 1: aspect of this hope of calling, of your purples, of
- 3:45Speaker 1: these pep because purples reveals that practical aspect, that is
- 3:48Speaker 1: that you can actually walk in the riches of the
- 3:52Speaker 1: glory of the inheritance, that is in descent. So the
- 3:55Speaker 1: Bible is telling us that there is the riches of
- 3:58Speaker 1: the of His glory of inheritance. There is a dimension
- 4:02Speaker 1: that is riches, that is glory that is in the inheritance,
- 4:07Speaker 1: that is for the saints.
- 4:08Speaker 2: Daniel onders do this.
- 4:10Speaker 1: This is the reason why people can give onto God
- 4:14Speaker 1: without the fear of tomorrow. It is on this account
- 4:17Speaker 1: of what practicality, their intentionality, that people can give their
- 4:22Speaker 1: all to God. It is by this understanding that people
- 4:26Speaker 1: know how to trust God with their finance, and not
- 4:29Speaker 1: just their finance. Daniel, it was easy for him to
- 4:31Speaker 1: do this. Why because he proposed in his heart. That's
- 4:33Speaker 1: why the Bible tells us in Corinthians that let every
- 4:36Speaker 1: man give second concience, Chapter nine, verse seven, and let
- 4:39Speaker 1: every man give. Let every man according as he has proposed, purposed,
- 4:45Speaker 1: propose it purposed in his heart.
- 4:48Speaker 2: That means, if it.
- 4:49Speaker 1: Was not proposing your heart, and you are going to
- 4:52Speaker 1: give his non avoid Solmon proposed in his heart to
- 4:55Speaker 1: give that thousand boards of him. If you do not
- 4:58Speaker 1: propose in your hearts so forward, Daniel purposed in his
- 5:02Speaker 1: heart that he will not defy himself with you.
- 5:04Speaker 2: Because this thing is not just giving.
- 5:05Speaker 1: There are other aspects of this dimension of recognizing God's
- 5:10Speaker 1: consciousness in your life, okay, of cleaving to God. Do
- 5:13Speaker 1: you know the devil likes when you give grudging? Hey,
- 5:16Speaker 1: the devil likes when you give grudging? Or God doesn't
- 5:20Speaker 1: like it. God doesn't like moment.
- 5:22Speaker 2: It is a scene to moment to worry. Yes, it is.
- 5:28Speaker 2: It is.
- 5:29Speaker 1: The Bible says, neither give out of necessity. Let me continue.
- 5:32Speaker 1: He says, what let as he has purposed in his
- 5:35Speaker 1: heart to give, Let them what give?
- 5:37Speaker 2: Not grudging? The number one?
- 5:39Speaker 1: Not out of necessity? Can you see this as believer?
- 5:44Speaker 1: You don't give out of necessity? Commander Brah has here.
- 5:47Speaker 2: You do not.
- 5:48Speaker 1: Give out of necessity. Necessity means, oh, it is necessity. Oh,
- 5:54Speaker 1: I cannot avoid this.
- 5:55Speaker 2: Oh.
- 5:56Speaker 1: If you do not catch the revelation of this, you
- 5:59Speaker 1: will be your decisions will be influenced by people's actions
- 6:03Speaker 1: because you're saying brother agi, because you're.
- 6:05Speaker 2: Saying this wanning.
- 6:06Speaker 1: You will be doing things because you want to be
- 6:09Speaker 1: men pleasers, so they will not say I do not
- 6:10Speaker 1: give wrong.
- 6:12Speaker 2: Error error.
- 6:14Speaker 1: If you're not comfortable with finding a place to propose
- 6:17Speaker 1: in your heart to give to God, you will not
- 6:20Speaker 1: be able to understand when you are pleasing men and
- 6:23Speaker 1: when you're pleasing God. So first of all you must decide.
- 6:26Speaker 1: You must know how to propose in your hearts to
- 6:31Speaker 1: do things for God. If you can get that, I
- 6:34Speaker 1: can guarantee you that you will not fall to the
- 6:37Speaker 1: prey of men.
- 6:38Speaker 2: Pleasers.
- 6:39Speaker 1: You will not fall to be troubled men pleasers. Don't
- 6:42Speaker 1: give out of necessity. Give as you have purposed in
- 6:47Speaker 1: your heart. Listen, it is from you within you individual. First,
- 6:53Speaker 1: it is not influence. If it's not external fast because
- 6:56Speaker 1: God can. God does not need your money. He doesn't
- 6:58Speaker 1: need yourself. It doesn't delight in burnt of is a sacrifice.
- 7:00Speaker 1: He doesn't need it because the individual is you. It's
- 7:03Speaker 1: you that he needs first. It is you that is parity.
- 7:06Speaker 2: It is you.
- 7:07Speaker 1: And God has made it clear throughout all these criatures,
- 7:09Speaker 1: even from the oldest, and it is you, the individual,
- 7:12Speaker 1: you that is listening to me. You're his pirity. So
- 7:14Speaker 1: you don't give out of what necess The Bible says
- 7:18Speaker 1: for God loves a cheerful giver. That means God loves
- 7:24Speaker 1: one who purpose in his heart to do something and
- 7:27Speaker 1: does it exactly. God loves those people who take initiatives
- 7:32Speaker 1: understand what I'm saying.
- 7:33Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong. God loves people who decide.
- 7:36Speaker 1: On their own. This is what I'm going to do
- 7:38Speaker 1: for God. I'm not going to do this. I'm not
- 7:40Speaker 1: going to do I'm going to abstain. For God loves
- 7:42Speaker 1: people who take who purpose in their hearts to honor Him. Yes,
- 7:48Speaker 1: purpose of heart is very important and vital to your
- 7:52Speaker 1: ministry here on Eggs.
- 7:53Speaker 2: Yes, we are all.
- 7:54Speaker 1: Called to do different things, but you must understand that
- 7:58Speaker 1: it is by purpose of heart that you can actually
- 8:00Speaker 1: fulfill what God has designed for you.
- 8:03Speaker 2: To fulfill. Anything outside purpose of heart, we will be caught.
- 8:07Speaker 1: That's why we have this story of soul King Saul
- 8:10Speaker 1: to show you that God can pick a man, can
- 8:12Speaker 1: choose a believe a man a man, and at the
- 8:15Speaker 1: end of the day, that man begins to yield to
- 8:18Speaker 1: the people's voices, begins to yield to be pleasing men
- 8:23Speaker 1: over God. Now listen, even if what men are doing,
- 8:28Speaker 1: are saying it is good or seem to be true,
- 8:30Speaker 1: you must first, for it is first wo man.
- 8:33Speaker 2: Individual. You have to first if your work.
- 8:35Speaker 1: If you work on yourself as an individual, you start
- 8:38Speaker 1: with proposing your heart as an individual to honor God.
- 8:41Speaker 1: You will hear the word of God. You will hear
- 8:43Speaker 1: God's voice, You will hear God's you will hear God
- 8:45Speaker 1: lead you. Once you purpose in your heart. That's what
- 8:47Speaker 1: happened to Daniel exactly. Yeah, yeah, hear me, that is
- 8:51Speaker 1: what happened to Daniel in Babylon. He purposed in his heart,
- 8:55Speaker 1: and from the beginning to the end God was with him.
- 8:59Speaker 2: Yes.
- 9:00Speaker 1: Finding the hope of your helling is determined first from
- 9:04Speaker 1: the purpose of heart. What is your heart like? Where
- 9:08Speaker 1: is your heart drawn towards? What is your heart called for?
- 9:10Speaker 1: What is in the boundary? What has built your heart?
