- 4:19Speaker 2: hot radio station. You gotta stand up and fight. It
- 4:24Speaker 2: is a fight of faith, all right. Thank you for
- 4:29Speaker 2: joining me today. We're here every day Monday through Friday
- 4:35Speaker 2: at eleven o'clock right here on his high radio app.
- 4:41Speaker 2: Make sure you join us. Make sure you go to
- 4:43Speaker 2: the live chat. Let us know who is in the building.
- 4:48Speaker 2: So we can give y'all a shout out, Meet me here,
- 4:51Speaker 2: Meet me here, all right. So the topic is prosperity
- 4:55Speaker 2: versus contentment. In the main verse that we're going to
- 5:00Speaker 2: go off of today is one Timothy chapter two. Excuse me,
- 5:06Speaker 2: One Timothy chapter six, verse six. So make sure you
- 5:10Speaker 2: get your bibles out, make sure you take notes, and
- 5:13Speaker 2: make sure you get that hunger for that word. It says, Now,
- 5:19Speaker 2: godliness with contentment is great gain. So godliness, which is amazing,
- 5:26Speaker 2: which will make you rich anyway, with contentment is great game.
- 5:33Speaker 2: It is awesome to be content. This verse reminds us
- 5:38Speaker 2: that the true riches in life aren't found and how
- 5:43Speaker 2: much money we stack but eliminate godly life and learning
- 5:48Speaker 2: to be content with what God has provided for us.
- 5:52Speaker 2: Prosperity isn't bad at all, but when it replaces our peace,
- 5:59Speaker 2: our priority, a purpose, it becomes a problem. The timid
- 6:06Speaker 2: is spiritual wealth that can't be stolen. And that is
- 6:11Speaker 2: exactly what Jesus taught us. And I know that we've
- 6:17Speaker 2: been through decades of the so called prosperity preachers. You
- 6:23Speaker 2: know they always tell you got to get that bag,
- 6:25Speaker 2: you gotta God wants you to be healthy, wealthy. Right,
- 6:29Speaker 2: he wants you to be rich. He wants you to
- 6:30Speaker 2: have the best and the finest. There's nothing wrong with that.
- 6:34Speaker 2: But that is not biblically true. There has been people
- 6:41Speaker 2: in the Word of God who suffered greatly because of
- 6:45Speaker 2: their faith in Christ, but will be rewarded in eternity.
- 6:51Speaker 2: So let's break it down and even further. And you
- 6:54Speaker 2: know that I love to devower the Word of God,
- 6:58Speaker 2: so us get in it. Proverbs chapter ten, verse two.
- 7:05Speaker 2: The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, and he
- 7:09Speaker 2: adds no sorrow at all to it. God's version of
- 7:15Speaker 2: prosperity brings joy and peace, not stress or sorrow. If
- 7:22Speaker 2: it comes with Him, that is the key. If it
- 7:26Speaker 2: comes with him, it comes with wholeness. God will make
- 7:33Speaker 2: you whole in each in every situation. Hip of Philippians,
- 7:41Speaker 2: chapter four, verse eleven and twelve. I have learned, in
- 7:46Speaker 2: whatever state I am in, to be content, Paul reminds us.
- 7:51Speaker 2: Contentment is a skill we learn, whether up or down,
- 7:57Speaker 2: we stay steady in Christ. Paul had to learn this himself,
- 8:06Speaker 2: so we need to learn it. We need to take
- 8:07Speaker 2: note that godliness with contentment, this big gain. To be
- 8:14Speaker 2: content in every circumstance. Matthew chapter six, verse thirty three,
- 8:23Speaker 2: pa seki. First, the kingdom of God and his riches
- 8:27Speaker 2: and all other things shall be added unto you to
- 8:31Speaker 2: keep them.
- 8:31Speaker 4: First.
- 8:33Speaker 2: When God's will is the main thing, He'll take care
- 8:38Speaker 2: of everything else. When you say that again, when God's
- 8:42Speaker 2: will is the main thing, he will take care of
- 8:48Speaker 2: everything else. And God's will is where we find purpose,
- 8:52Speaker 2: is where we find prosperity, is where we find success
- 8:57Speaker 2: and the victory He has already programmed in us. Amen,
- 9:03Speaker 2: this is good. Hebrews chapter thirteen, verse five. Be content
- 9:09Speaker 2: with such things as you have, for He himself has said,
- 9:15Speaker 2: I will never leave you nor forsake you. God's presence
- 9:21Speaker 2: is our greatest possession. Let me say that again. God's
- 9:24Speaker 2: presence is our greatest possession. Now that is real contentment.
- 9:32Speaker 2: I don't want to be anywhere where God's presence is not.
- 9:37Speaker 2: That is a great shout out right now too. Fresh
- 9:39Speaker 2: Wing Community Church. The reason why sometimes I drive thirty
- 9:44Speaker 2: to forty minutes to get to church it's not close
- 9:47Speaker 2: to the house. But the reason why we love fellowshiping
- 9:50Speaker 2: there is the presence of God always shows up.
- 9:56Speaker 4: Amen.
- 9:58Speaker 2: It is very valuable. Our last scripture to back up
- 10:04Speaker 2: this point is Luke, Chapter twelve, verse fifteen. Life does
- 10:11Speaker 2: not consist in the abundance of things. Let me say
- 10:16Speaker 2: that again, Life does not consist of the abundance of things.
- 10:23Speaker 2: More stuff doesn't mean more life. Let's stop chasing things
- 10:30Speaker 2: and start living for the king. While that rhymes, that's
- 10:34Speaker 2: a bar right there. Let's stop chasing things and start
- 10:39Speaker 2: living for the king. See, when it comes down to it,
- 10:44Speaker 2: when we enter into eternity, it doesn't matter how many
- 10:50Speaker 2: cars you drive, how big your house is, how much
- 10:53Speaker 2: money you made. What matters is how much did you
- 10:59Speaker 2: love God? How much of your life did you give up?
- 11:03Speaker 2: How much did you surrender? And that's where you're gonna
- 11:07Speaker 2: find the two riches and the two purposes of life. Y'all?
- 11:17Speaker 2: All right now, it's time for the joke of the day.
- 11:26Speaker 2: Let's see what we got. How can we be more
- 11:30Speaker 2: corny today with these jokes? But on the real side,
- 11:34Speaker 2: I hope you guys enjoy this. I hope this kind
- 11:37Speaker 2: of gets you to giggle a little bit, you know
- 11:39Speaker 2: what I mean? Why didn't greedy people ever play hide
- 11:45Speaker 2: and seek? Well, let me rephrase that. Why don't greedy
- 11:50Speaker 2: people ever play hide and seek? Because good luck hiding
- 11:56Speaker 2: when you're always trying to chase out. I'm trying to
- 12:06Speaker 2: read this joke, y'all. I might be reading wrong, but
- 12:08Speaker 2: let me see why don't greedy people ever play hide
- 12:14Speaker 2: and seek? Because good luck hiding when you're always trying to,
- 12:21Speaker 2: oh not chase out? Cash out? Okay, one more time,
- 12:27Speaker 2: Why don't greedy people ever play hide and seek? Because
- 12:32Speaker 2: good luck hiding what you're always trying to cash out?
- 12:37Speaker 2: Get it, cash out? Yep, we did it again, another
- 12:44Speaker 2: corny joke. Let's keep the ball rolling, y'all. Let's keep
- 12:49Speaker 2: the ball rolling. Might's well stay consistent, right, that's all,
- 12:52Speaker 2: stay consistent? Okay, all right now, just a quick shout

- 16:47Speaker 3: It was never enough. I just need this A piece
- 16:51Speaker 3: looking for me. It's want to trust too much of

- 17:32Speaker 4: You you know, give me I need you right.
- 17:59Speaker 2: I write that is our music break rocking our boy
- 18:03Speaker 2: Alex dream and he faith. You know, the Bible says
- 18:07Speaker 2: that we cannot come to Christ unless the Father draws
- 18:12Speaker 2: us right. He even gives us the faith we need
- 18:17Speaker 2: to believe in him. We serve an amazing guy. Hallelujah.
- 18:25Speaker 2: All right, all right, well let's get back at it.
- 18:30Speaker 2: Our topic today is prosperity versus contentment. Right, what should
- 18:41Speaker 2: we make priority? What should we be pursuing? What should
- 18:46Speaker 2: we be looking for? So let's get straight to it.
- 18:54Speaker 2: God doesn't mind blessing you, but he's more interested in
- 18:59Speaker 2: your heart then your bank account. Contentment isn't giving up
- 19:05Speaker 2: on goals it's trusting God's timing while you pursue them.
- 19:15Speaker 2: Let me say that again. Contentment is not giving up
- 19:19Speaker 2: on your goals. You don't have to give up on
- 19:22Speaker 2: your dreams. You don't have to give up on the
- 19:26Speaker 2: desires as long as they're Godly desires. Right. But in
- 19:31Speaker 2: the process we must be trusting God's timing while we
- 19:38Speaker 2: pursue them. You know, for example, I want to rely
- 19:46Speaker 2: on to reopen and club his out Laws Vegas, the
- 19:49Speaker 2: actual building, and I know that we can do a
- 19:53Speaker 2: lot for God. We can do a lot of good
- 19:55Speaker 2: in our community once we get it. But I can't
- 20:01Speaker 2: go outside of God's will. I can't go outside of
- 20:05Speaker 2: his timing. We have to trust God in the process.
- 20:15Speaker 2: All right, let me say this one more time. Contentment
- 20:20Speaker 2: isn't giving up on our goals. It's trusting in God's
- 20:25Speaker 2: timing while you pursue them. Stay key to mind of
- 20:30Speaker 2: Yeo and your soul will always be rich. We want
- 20:33Speaker 2: the riches that come from heaven. Jesus said, where your
- 20:38Speaker 2: treasure treasures are there, your heart will be store up
- 20:42Speaker 2: treasures in heaven in the kingdom. I want to be rich.
- 20:47Speaker 2: I want to be back when I get in the Kingdom, y'all,
- 20:50Speaker 2: and I want y'all to be too as well. And
- 20:53Speaker 2: think about it. The things on this earth is like
- 20:56Speaker 2: a junk yard compared to everything that God has for
- 21:02Speaker 2: us in the Kingdom. No I has seen an old
- 21:05Speaker 2: ear has heard the things that God has prepared for us.
- 21:11Speaker 2: The streets are paved with gold like it's gonna be amazing.
- 21:17Speaker 2: And it's going to be amazing. And I hope that
- 21:20Speaker 2: you will stay on this journey with me. Let's finish
- 21:26Speaker 2: this show. Let's cross the finish line and make it
- 21:29Speaker 2: into the Kingdom. All right, this is your brother, mister
