00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:08,400
Thanks for checking out the 
anchor Faith, Message podcast 

2
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:10,900
from st. 
Augustine Florida, now enjoyed 

3
00:00:10,900 --> 00:00:21,700
this message. 
Alright well let's get right 

4
00:00:21,700 --> 00:00:24,000
into it. 
To turn over to James chapter 3 

5
00:00:24,900 --> 00:00:26,800
you know I heard a minister by 
the name of dr. 

6
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,600
Myles Munroe and he's gone on to
be with the Lord, but he made 

7
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,100
this statement. 
Said, it's not enough that you 

8
00:00:32,100 --> 00:00:35,900
know, that you were born. 
It's not enough. 

9
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:41,600
You need to know why. 
But no one why you were born 

10
00:00:41,900 --> 00:00:45,500
isn't enough either. 
You didn't know why you do what 

11
00:00:45,500 --> 00:00:50,600
you do because you can know why 
you're born and still blow it 

12
00:00:51,300 --> 00:00:55,000
because why you're doing why you
were born? 

13
00:00:56,100 --> 00:00:59,800
Has great implications. 
Why you do? 

14
00:00:59,900 --> 00:01:01,900
Why you were born? 
Do you understand what I'm 

15
00:01:01,900 --> 00:01:04,000
saying? 
It will become very clear. 

16
00:01:04,500 --> 00:01:08,300
So in James chapter 3, James 
says this and he's talking to 

17
00:01:08,300 --> 00:01:12,100
the church now. 
He says he says, but if you have

18
00:01:12,100 --> 00:01:18,000
bitter jealousy and selfish 
ambition in your heart, do not 

19
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,100
be arrogant. 
So lie against the truth. 

20
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:24,500
This wisdom is not that which 
comes down from above but is 

21
00:01:24,500 --> 00:01:30,300
Earthly natural demonic verse 16
for jealousy. 

22
00:01:30,300 --> 00:01:33,900
And here it is. 
Selfish ambition exist. 

23
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:40,000
There is disorder and every evil
thing. 

24
00:01:40,700 --> 00:01:47,600
So the ambition that we have 
will determine our quality of 

25
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:51,700
life. 
Whether we are receiving from a 

26
00:01:51,700 --> 00:01:56,100
natural Earthly or demonic 
realm, or whether we're 

27
00:01:56,100 --> 00:01:59,500
receiving from God. 
Are you hearing me? 

28
00:02:00,300 --> 00:02:04,000
So here James is talking to the 
church. 

29
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,600
He not talking to the lost to 
those outside of God's kingdom. 

30
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:09,699
He's talking to those inside his
kingdom. 

31
00:02:09,699 --> 00:02:14,700
He says, now, why you do what 
you do is very important because

32
00:02:14,700 --> 00:02:20,200
if you have selfish ambition, 
see jealousy, only can manifest 

33
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:25,200
if selfish ambition is there Are
you hearing me when there's a 

34
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:29,100
selfish ambition? 
I'm doing this because of me. 

35
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,500
How does it help me? 
How does it benefit me? 

36
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:38,500
What about me? 
Well, at that point. 

37
00:02:38,500 --> 00:02:41,600
It will put you in a place where
you'll begin to lie against the 

38
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:46,500
truth. 
You lie against the truth and 

39
00:02:46,500 --> 00:02:51,000
then the wisdom that you begin 
to demonstrate the, the plans 

40
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,700
that start coming to your mod of
how to accomplish something. 

41
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,300
Will not come from heaven, but 
it had come from another Realm. 

42
00:02:59,700 --> 00:03:02,900
I said another realm, then it 
means anything. 

43
00:03:02,900 --> 00:03:07,600
You actually accomplished 
actually has around it disorder 

44
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:11,300
and every evil thing, every evil
thing. 

45
00:03:11,300 --> 00:03:13,200
You say Pastor, are we talking 
about this? 

46
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:14,900
Why? 
Because the Bible tells us in 

47
00:03:14,900 --> 00:03:17,600
the last of the last days, many 
will be deceived. 

48
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,600
Many will be deceived. 
Now we would think you know 

49
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,300
because again when you just 
gloss over the Bible you think. 

50
00:03:25,300 --> 00:03:27,800
Well that's that's those that 
are outside of God kingdom. 

51
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,300
It's obvious, they're going to 
be deceived. 

52
00:03:29,300 --> 00:03:31,900
Well, they're already deceived, 
they're not going to be they are

53
00:03:32,300 --> 00:03:34,200
the veils already over their 
eyes. 

54
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,400
Their father is the father of 
lie. 

55
00:03:36,500 --> 00:03:38,800
So this ain't about, they're 
going to be deceived. 

56
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,400
So when the when the the 
scripture tells when Paul's 

57
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,400
admonishing in the last days 
there will be many who will go 

58
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,800
into deception. 
That will be He's not talking 

59
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,900
about those that are already in 
deception. 

60
00:03:51,900 --> 00:03:55,000
He's talking about those who 
have the capacity to not be 

61
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:00,000
deceived, but what would cause a
person to be deceived? 

62
00:04:00,100 --> 00:04:04,900
Well, as long as you have some 
kind of selfish ambition about 

63
00:04:04,900 --> 00:04:15,100
yourself, you will be deceived. 
Not you might You will as long 

64
00:04:15,100 --> 00:04:17,700
as something within you has 
this. 

65
00:04:17,899 --> 00:04:23,100
What about me when you going to 
recognize me? 

66
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,000
When they going to talk about 
me? 

67
00:04:26,100 --> 00:04:28,400
Where am I gonna get my, what 
about me? 

68
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:33,600
Don't they appreciate that 
individual will be deceived 

69
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,700
period. 
How do we know this? 

70
00:04:35,900 --> 00:04:41,500
Well, all we have to do is Trace
where the first layer of 

71
00:04:41,500 --> 00:04:43,400
deception, man. 
Tested. 

72
00:04:45,900 --> 00:04:49,900
And it's recorded in Isaiah. 
Chapter 14 and Isaiah chapter. 

73
00:04:49,900 --> 00:04:54,000
14. 
God had created a perfect 

74
00:04:54,000 --> 00:05:00,300
creation and he had Angels 
assigned to help him do things 

75
00:05:01,100 --> 00:05:04,300
in his creation. 
He had one particular, one is 

76
00:05:04,300 --> 00:05:08,300
called the Morning Star, the 
King James calls him, Lucifer, 

77
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:13,700
he was anointed cherub, but yet 
he developed a selfish ambition,

78
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,900
Within him because Ezekiel Khan 
explains how he got lifted up in

79
00:05:18,900 --> 00:05:21,300
Pride. 
He saw his own Beauty and fat 

80
00:05:21,300 --> 00:05:24,600
Ezekiel, even talks about how he
spent time in the garden. 

81
00:05:24,700 --> 00:05:27,500
And the time in the garden, was 
it the time that he showed up 

82
00:05:27,500 --> 00:05:34,200
with Eve, okay, at the end of 
the day, he decided that he had 

83
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,700
an ambition that lied against 
the truth. 

84
00:05:38,700 --> 00:05:41,600
And it's recorded here in 
Isaiah, 14 verses 12 to 16. 

85
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:45,400
He says, all he said, how you 
have fallen from Heaven, All 

86
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,500
Star of the morning. 
Son of the Dawn. 

87
00:05:47,500 --> 00:05:49,200
You have been cut down to the 
Earth. 

88
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:53,900
You have weakened the nation's 
but you said in your heart, I 

89
00:05:53,900 --> 00:05:58,000
will Ascend to Heaven. 
I will raise my throne above the

90
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,600
stars of God. 
I will sit on the Mount of the 

91
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:04,500
assembly in the recesses of the 
north ah, will Ascend above the 

92
00:06:04,500 --> 00:06:10,400
heights of the clouds ah will 
make myself like The most high 

93
00:06:11,300 --> 00:06:14,100
selfish ambition. 
But it God says nevertheless, 

94
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,300
you will be thrust down the 
shield to the recesses of the 

95
00:06:17,300 --> 00:06:19,500
pit, those who see you will gaze
at you. 

96
00:06:19,500 --> 00:06:23,800
They will ponder over you saying
is this not is this the man who 

97
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,300
made the Earth tremble? 
Who shook kingdoms? 

98
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,000
I love what Pastor John George 
said to our men this weekend. 

99
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:37,700
He says it's not like the devil 
is, is choosing in the context 

100
00:06:37,700 --> 00:06:39,900
of well, you know, No, maybe 
today I'll be good. 

101
00:06:39,900 --> 00:06:46,200
He chooses and he desires to be 
the opposite of God. 

102
00:06:47,500 --> 00:06:49,600
And there's no Redemption for 
him. 

103
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:56,100
We should never feel sorry for 
the devil ever, because he 

104
00:06:56,100 --> 00:07:01,100
chooses to be rebellious from 
the things of God. 

105
00:07:01,100 --> 00:07:03,900
Why? 
Because he looked to himself and

106
00:07:03,900 --> 00:07:05,900
says, I can do it better than 
God. 

107
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,600
I want my name better. 
I want mine and let me why we 

108
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,700
saying this this morning because
we live in a society full of 

109
00:07:13,700 --> 00:07:19,000
selfish ambition. 
Selfish ambition, what man 

110
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,600
people want to be known. 
Yeah. 

111
00:07:22,300 --> 00:07:25,500
I mean that's why there's so 
many YouTube videos and so many 

112
00:07:25,500 --> 00:07:29,500
YouTube influencers. 
Everybody wants to be known, 

113
00:07:29,500 --> 00:07:34,300
they are jockeying for position 
and they don't realize that that

114
00:07:34,300 --> 00:07:38,600
particular attitude subjects. 
Them to deception. 

115
00:07:39,500 --> 00:07:44,600
Are you hearing what I'm saying?
And so here, this anointed 

116
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:49,400
cherub the Bible says in Ezekiel
he fell because he had a selfish

117
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,900
ambition that you know what? 
But I'm gonna take over the seat

118
00:07:52,900 --> 00:07:56,800
of God, I want to place, I was 
never created to be in. 

119
00:07:58,100 --> 00:08:01,200
Are you hearing me? 
Well, did this happen in the 

120
00:08:01,208 --> 00:08:05,100
book of Beginnings? 
If we go back to the Garden, we 

121
00:08:05,100 --> 00:08:09,600
can see in Genesis 3:1. 
That now this anointed cherub 

122
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,200
that has been thrown down 
influences a serpent and shows 

123
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:14,500
up in the guard. 
Look what it says. 

124
00:08:14,500 --> 00:08:17,000
Now, the serpent was more crafty
than any beast of the field, 

125
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,700
which the Lord God had made, and
he said to the woman, indeed has

126
00:08:19,700 --> 00:08:23,100
God said, You shall not eat from
any tree of the garden now. 

127
00:08:23,100 --> 00:08:24,800
Why does he want to know what 
God said? 

128
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,700
Because he wants to lie against 
the truth. 

129
00:08:30,900 --> 00:08:36,000
Because when you have selfish 
ambition, you will lie against 

130
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,700
the truth. 
Jesus said, I am the way, the so

131
00:08:39,700 --> 00:08:44,000
he needs to know God's word in 
order for Allah to manifest and 

132
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,900
the woman said to the serpent 
from the fruit of the Trees of 

133
00:08:45,908 --> 00:08:47,700
the garden. 
We may eat of the fruit of the 

134
00:08:47,700 --> 00:08:49,100
tree which is in the middle of 
the garden. 

135
00:08:49,100 --> 00:08:50,900
That is the tree of knowledge of
Good and Evil. 

136
00:08:50,900 --> 00:08:53,300
God said You shall not eat from 
it or touch or you'll die in The

137
00:08:53,300 --> 00:08:57,700
Serpent says to her, you surely 
will not die. 

138
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,100
Die for God knows that in the 
day. 

139
00:09:00,100 --> 00:09:02,700
You eat it, you from it. 
Your eyes will be open. 

140
00:09:02,700 --> 00:09:04,800
And you'll be like, God knowing 
good and evil. 

141
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:10,700
He's trying to create in her a 
selfish ambition, to be able to 

142
00:09:10,700 --> 00:09:16,600
now, Noah truth but then get 
arrogant for the Bible tells us 

143
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,500
that this anointed cherub got 
lifted up in his pride. 

144
00:09:20,700 --> 00:09:24,200
He became arrogant because of 
selfish ambition. 

145
00:09:25,500 --> 00:09:30,800
And then in turn began to reason
that God's word is not going to 

146
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,900
be the final in my life. 
That there's something Beyond 

147
00:09:34,900 --> 00:09:39,200
it. 
There exists a power beyond it, 

148
00:09:39,300 --> 00:09:42,400
in fact, I'll no longer be 
subject to it all. 

149
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:46,000
But Jesus testify to that day 
that he decided he would make a,

150
00:09:46,500 --> 00:09:48,600
he would storm the Throne of 
Heaven. 

151
00:09:49,300 --> 00:09:52,400
Jesus said, I saw Satan fall 
like, lightning from Heaven. 

152
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:57,200
Are you hearing me because his 
Amounted to nothing but a swift 

153
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,000
kick out and there's coming a 
day that he's going to be thrown

154
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,700
into the Lake of Fire forever 
and be tormented, which is the 

155
00:10:04,700 --> 00:10:08,300
prison system of the kingdom. 
Are you hearing me? 

156
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,600
But here we see that he asked 
her concerning these things and 

157
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:16,600
when the woman saw that the tree
was good for food and that was a

158
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,500
delight to the eyes and that the
tree was desirable to make one 

159
00:10:19,500 --> 00:10:22,500
wise, but the woman was already 
why she was made in the image of

160
00:10:22,500 --> 00:10:26,800
God. 
Notice she wanted to have a 

161
00:10:26,808 --> 00:10:29,700
wisdom beyond God, but James 
warns us. 

162
00:10:29,700 --> 00:10:32,800
If you start walking in a 
wisdom, that is against the 

163
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:36,300
truth. 
It is Earthly natural and 

164
00:10:36,900 --> 00:10:45,200
demonic And disorder and every 
evil thing exists there and so 

165
00:10:45,300 --> 00:10:48,200
it says she took from its fruit 
eight and she gave also to her 

166
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,000
husband with her. 
And what did he do? 

167
00:10:51,300 --> 00:10:58,200
He ain't Adam and Eve chose to 
have a selfish ambition that I 

168
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,900
will rule this Earth without 
God. 

169
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,400
I'll no longer be subject to 
him. 

170
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:09,700
We know in Genesis 1, God's plan
for man, according to Genesis 

171
00:11:09,700 --> 00:11:11,600
1:26. 
It said let us make man in our 

172
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,200
image according to our likeness 
and let them rule, have dominion

173
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,800
over the fish of the sea, birds 
of the sky over all the cattle 

174
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,900
over every creeping thing that 
creeps on the earth over all the

175
00:11:20,900 --> 00:11:23,000
Earth. 
So man had Dominion on the 

176
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,400
earth, he already had rulership 
but all of a sudden the selfish 

177
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:31,400
ambition was is that I want to 
be able to rule without God, I 

178
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,200
want to have the Say this is the
problem with Satan he himself 

179
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:39,800
was given rulership. 
He had a form of rulership in 

180
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:45,600
his created position but a 
selfish ambition took over and 

181
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:50,500
as a result of that evil 
manifests now God dealt with the

182
00:11:50,500 --> 00:11:52,800
evil in his room, he kicked him 
out. 

183
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,900
Adam should have dealt with the 
same evil in his realm and 

184
00:11:55,900 --> 00:12:01,200
kicked it out. 
But instead, he took the selfish

185
00:12:01,300 --> 00:12:04,900
ambition. 
And because of that, the Bible 

186
00:12:04,900 --> 00:12:12,300
tells us in entered the world. 
Now unfortunately, we are 

187
00:12:12,300 --> 00:12:17,900
subject now to this father who 
was the father of lies because 

188
00:12:17,900 --> 00:12:20,300
all of us, have sinned and 
fallen short of the glory of 

189
00:12:20,300 --> 00:12:22,700
God. 
We are of the nature of man. 

190
00:12:22,700 --> 00:12:26,100
Now, the Fallen nature of man. 
And you know what we all want. 

191
00:12:26,100 --> 00:12:33,700
We want to be known. 
Before we ever came into the 

192
00:12:33,700 --> 00:12:36,200
kingdom, it was all about 
self-preservation. 

193
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,600
It's all about me. 
What about me? 

194
00:12:39,900 --> 00:12:44,100
What about in our relationships?
What about me in our jobs? 

195
00:12:44,100 --> 00:12:47,100
What about me? 
In our community. 

196
00:12:47,100 --> 00:12:50,600
What about me among our peers, 
but what about me? 

197
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:56,000
Our family members, what about 
me, everything we did was all 

198
00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:02,800
about getting things so that it 
benefits our own interests are 

199
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,800
business decisions. 
The people that we decided to 

200
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,700
have relations. 
How will this help me out in the

201
00:13:09,700 --> 00:13:14,800
end? 
Even when we go into - places 

202
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,400
meaning were hurt and instead, 
we're like, what about me? 

203
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,900
I want to release the I'm 
feeling pain, so we don't want 

204
00:13:21,900 --> 00:13:25,800
nobody to help us. 
So we'll go in our own Direction

205
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:30,400
and Medicaid ourselves, or drink
alcohol, or do stuff that puts 

206
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,700
us in a position to try to 
forget. 

207
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,400
And then, what about me? 
What about my heartache? 

208
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,800
What about what I went through? 
What about what I'm when am I 

209
00:13:37,808 --> 00:13:42,400
gonna get mine? 
Now it's Sounds like wow, we 

210
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:46,300
should have compassion now. 
We do have compassion. 

211
00:13:46,300 --> 00:13:48,000
Why? 
Because we want people to come 

212
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:52,800
out of selfish ambition. 
But we shouldn't be working. 

213
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:57,600
Passion is not to feed their 
selfish ambition but to deliver 

214
00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,700
them from it. 
Come on. 

215
00:13:59,700 --> 00:14:04,000
Are you hearing what I'm saying?
In fact Philippians 2:3 says it 

216
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:09,000
this way do nothing from 
selfishness or empty conceit. 

217
00:14:09,300 --> 00:14:12,500
But with humility of Mind, 
regard one another, as more 

218
00:14:12,500 --> 00:14:16,400
important than yourselves. 
Now, why am I bringing this out?

219
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,600
Why? 
Because we are in a society 

220
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:25,100
like, never before Of where we 
are pulling out personalities. 

221
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:31,200
I lived and I'm 52 years old. 
So it wasn't that long ago, I 

222
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,100
mean things have really 
progressed. 

223
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:37,300
It wasn't so long ago that when 
you talked about a team, you 

224
00:14:37,300 --> 00:14:39,300
only talked about the name of 
the team. 

225
00:14:41,500 --> 00:14:44,800
That's all you talked about, you
talked about, you know, whatever

226
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:49,100
that team name was. 
But now when it comes to teams 

227
00:14:49,300 --> 00:14:56,700
it, Tha he talked about the star
and the team, their name and the

228
00:14:56,700 --> 00:14:59,300
team's name. 
Well, wait a minute, they're 

229
00:14:59,300 --> 00:15:02,700
part of the team. 
Why are we talking only about 

230
00:15:02,700 --> 00:15:04,400
them? 
Why are we only talking about 

231
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,800
what they're doing now today? 
We have gotten it to the sports 

232
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:09,500
side. 
Were athletes. 

233
00:15:09,500 --> 00:15:12,700
Go into places only saying, How 
does this benefit? 

234
00:15:13,900 --> 00:15:17,900
Me. 
How does this benefit me? 

235
00:15:18,300 --> 00:15:20,000
How's this gonna make me look 
good? 

236
00:15:20,100 --> 00:15:22,700
I mean, right now, we have 
quarterbacks all through the 

237
00:15:22,700 --> 00:15:26,700
college realm that are jumping 
from school to school. 

238
00:15:26,700 --> 00:15:28,400
Why? 
Because what about it ain't 

239
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,600
about a tea. 
It's about. 

240
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,500
When am I gonna get my shot? 
They're not gonna give me one 

241
00:15:33,500 --> 00:15:35,300
here. 
When I this one, I loved about 

242
00:15:35,300 --> 00:15:36,900
Kyle Trask. 
When he played for the 

243
00:15:36,900 --> 00:15:40,500
University of Florida, the guy 
never played. 

244
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:46,000
But never left. 
He could have gone to plenty of 

245
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,200
schools but at the end of the 
day, and what's he doing today? 

246
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:54,400
Not playing. 
He is playing NFL football 

247
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:58,800
without playing. 
He's getting paid to back up the

248
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:03,400
greatest quarterback that's ever
played the game at the end of 

249
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,600
the day, but you think he's 
learning something. 

250
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:14,100
See we have lost team, concept 
or Oneness in the sense that 

251
00:16:14,100 --> 00:16:17,200
we're all individuals, but 
coming together, we're one and 

252
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:22,000
I'm while the we can celebrate 
each other's positions and each.

253
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:26,000
There's abilities of what we 
bring to the team. 

254
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:31,700
The reality is we're a team. 
I mean at this point you can't 

255
00:16:31,700 --> 00:16:35,200
even talk about college football
without knowing the quarterbacks

256
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,400
name. 
But what is the center's name? 

257
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,300
You know, the center holds the 
ball more than the quarterback. 

258
00:16:42,100 --> 00:16:44,400
The center will touch the ball 
more than the quarterback. 

259
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:48,400
Kyle, sometimes the quarterback 
will line up I'll as a receiver 

260
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,500
or come up at the center will 
give it to a back you know, 

261
00:16:51,500 --> 00:16:54,000
could be a wildcat formation. 
He'll touch the ball more than 

262
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,300
anybody but we have no idea what
he is. 

263
00:16:56,900 --> 00:16:59,900
Let me ask you this question. 
How many NFL quarterbacks could 

264
00:16:59,900 --> 00:17:01,400
do what they do without that 
line? 

265
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:08,700
But we don't call that the line 
are those names and the team. 

266
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,099
You know, what happens in 
politics, it's happening in 

267
00:17:14,099 --> 00:17:18,700
music talking about, you know, 
used to be a band's name, but 

268
00:17:18,700 --> 00:17:22,000
then they start pulling out the 
lead singer and it's there. 

269
00:17:22,099 --> 00:17:26,000
And here's the thing it's crept 
into the church because now it's

270
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,700
not the church's worship is the 
church's worship. 

271
00:17:29,700 --> 00:17:37,900
Featuring Featuring got to have 
their name. 

272
00:17:39,300 --> 00:17:41,400
It's good to have their name 
now. 

273
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:46,600
And it even happens with 
pastors. 

274
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,800
This is now this is a personal 
conviction. 

275
00:17:48,900 --> 00:17:53,100
So by no means, if somebody's 
pastors name is out on a church,

276
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,100
am I saying they have selfish 
ambition? 

277
00:17:55,300 --> 00:17:57,500
I'm just saying. 
Jesus Christ is the head of the 

278
00:17:57,500 --> 00:17:59,100
church. 
I'm just Pastor in it. 

279
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,900
I have God will establish my 
name, but at the end of the day,

280
00:18:02,900 --> 00:18:05,300
it's not about my name. 
It's about his name. 

281
00:18:06,300 --> 00:18:10,200
Because if we would take John, 
the Baptist call to this thing 

282
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:14,600
called the body of Christ. 
I must decrease. 

283
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:19,300
He must increase, but have you 
noticed that everybody wants to 

284
00:18:19,300 --> 00:18:26,400
make a name for themselves? 
What about me? 

285
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:31,400
What about my name? 
What about what I'm doing? 

286
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:41,200
And if selfish ambition exists, 
every evil exists, and if 

287
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:45,900
selfish ambition exists, you 
will deceive be deceived and lie

288
00:18:45,900 --> 00:18:48,300
against the truth. 
Meaning, you will do things. 

289
00:18:48,300 --> 00:18:52,300
Contrary to the word of God. 
Thinking you're getting ahead. 

290
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:57,600
Adam thought I'll get ahead. 
If I disobey and eat this fruit,

291
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:03,000
the anointed cherub the King 
James calls him, Lucifer, he 

292
00:19:03,300 --> 00:19:09,000
said, I'll get ahead, I can go 
higher, you can't go higher than

293
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:13,900
what God has made you to be and 
here's the crazy thing so many 

294
00:19:13,900 --> 00:19:16,700
people are so busy trying to 
make a name for themselves 

295
00:19:16,700 --> 00:19:18,900
instead of knowing god knows my 
name. 

296
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,500
I mean how can you arrive more 
when Jesus knows your name? 

297
00:19:26,100 --> 00:19:29,800
When he sent his Spirit to call 
you out of Darkness into His 

298
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,400
Marvelous Light, when he 
personally called you to come 

299
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,000
out of that thing and it all of 
a sudden, now you're a child of 

300
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,600
the king and you want somebody 
else to know you. 

301
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,000
I mean, all I care about is does
Jesus know who I am. 

302
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,400
That's all that matters and all 
that matters is whatever I'm 

303
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,900
doing. 
It makes you think of his name 

304
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,800
thinking of his name who he is 
now. 

305
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,400
Don't you think Jesus was a 
great example because the 

306
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:01,400
Philippian let the Paul's letter
to the Philippians Church tells 

307
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:05,600
them to do nothing from 
selfishness which tells us in if

308
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,900
he's telling a church you could 
live a selfless life. 

309
00:20:10,500 --> 00:20:15,500
Then it must be obtainable. 
Hallelujah. 

310
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,600
I said it must be obtainable. 
It must be obtainable. 

311
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:25,300
Do you know how many musicians 
today started their musical 

312
00:20:25,300 --> 00:20:33,900
career in church? 
But then someone told them, I'll

313
00:20:33,900 --> 00:20:39,600
make your name great. 
And now they sing stuff. 

314
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:43,200
That doesn't glorify God and do 
you really think? 

315
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,200
Just cause they put out a gospel
album? 

316
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:50,900
They're loving the Lord. 
No, cuz they know if I put out a

317
00:20:50,900 --> 00:20:54,600
gospel album, the church is so 
gullible they'll buy it. 

318
00:20:54,900 --> 00:20:56,900
It's just another stream of 
income. 

319
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,900
Oh my goodness. 
No, guys, looking for character.

320
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,600
And then here's the thing, God 
knows, our heart. 

321
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,500
Today's message is a liberating 
message. 

322
00:21:13,500 --> 00:21:15,400
Why? 
Because, you can get free from 

323
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,000
selfish ambition. 
Give free from it. 

324
00:21:18,100 --> 00:21:21,000
Give free from it, just be 
absolutely free. 

325
00:21:21,100 --> 00:21:23,600
I have no selfish ambition. 
All I want to do is the will of 

326
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:25,600
God for my life go. 
See when you don't have a 

327
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,200
selfish ambition than anything. 
Anyone else is doing? 

328
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:33,400
You won't ever be jealous of it?
I can't believe they're letting 

329
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,100
Minister, they haven't asked me 
yet. 

330
00:21:38,300 --> 00:21:44,200
What? 
Oh, I'm preaching way better. 

331
00:21:45,700 --> 00:21:47,300
I mean, I'll deal with the 
household of God. 

332
00:21:47,300 --> 00:21:48,700
Why? 
Because many people have been 

333
00:21:48,700 --> 00:21:52,100
hurt by the church only because 
there have been believers. 

334
00:21:52,100 --> 00:21:55,500
Who did not eradicate their 
selfish ambition. 

335
00:21:56,700 --> 00:22:00,400
And they created an atmosphere 
of every evil thing. 

336
00:22:02,500 --> 00:22:06,900
I mean, I don't mom when the 
church honors and weights and 

337
00:22:06,900 --> 00:22:11,200
wants to serve the role of the 
pastor, but make no mistake 

338
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,400
about it. 
You're gonna see me serve you. 

339
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,300
Because at the end of the day, 
it's about us doing something 

340
00:22:17,300 --> 00:22:19,000
together. 
I want to be known as. 

341
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:20,900
Oh, that's the pastor of anchor 
faith. 

342
00:22:26,900 --> 00:22:31,800
I want to be lost in a vision 
that when they see me they see 

343
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,400
Vision more than they see my 
name. 

344
00:22:35,300 --> 00:22:38,600
Now, that doesn't mean you can't
have a name, you won't be 

345
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,900
established or name because God 
has no problem to establish 

346
00:22:41,900 --> 00:22:45,600
someone's name when he knows, 
they always point you back to 

347
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:50,500
him and I'm not talking to fake 
stuff just because someone gets 

348
00:22:50,500 --> 00:22:57,000
an award On a stage for their 
acting. 

349
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:03,000
And then they say, I just want 
to thank the Lord means they're 

350
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,600
serving or you don't want to 
hear it. 

351
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:15,300
Judas could not assimilate to be
a true follower of Jesus. 

352
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,600
Because he had a selfish 
ambition. 

353
00:23:21,300 --> 00:23:25,700
His ambition was that I'll get 
close to the Messiah, everybody 

354
00:23:25,700 --> 00:23:28,400
knows the messiah's coming, the 
Kings coming, the Kings coming, 

355
00:23:28,500 --> 00:23:31,500
the Kings coming, he's the king,
they're saying he's the king. 

356
00:23:31,500 --> 00:23:33,500
Look at the miracles signs and 
wonders that are happening. 

357
00:23:33,500 --> 00:23:35,900
With this guy, the king, this 
must be him. 

358
00:23:35,900 --> 00:23:38,600
And I'm gonna get close because 
we, you know what he is going to

359
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:47,800
establish my name. 
He picked me. but when he 

360
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:53,600
started to think this guy's not 
trying to get on the throne, I 

361
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,400
don't know how this is going to 
start, he's denying himself all 

362
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,200
the time. 
I mean, I've never walked around

363
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:03,800
someone so selfless in my life. 
I mean he's not making a demand 

364
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:08,000
on the throne. 
And at this point, I'm here and 

365
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,900
there's too many people against.
I need a side with a different 

366
00:24:10,900 --> 00:24:12,900
party again. 
Oh, you don't want it. 

367
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,300
So, uh, what can I do to sell 
this? 

368
00:24:16,300 --> 00:24:20,500
How can I profit from this 
relationship? 

369
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,900
It's amazing. 
How many Believers come to me as

370
00:24:26,900 --> 00:24:28,500
a pastor, if you would just do 
this. 

371
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:33,300
And basically take pieces of the
world, bring it into the church,

372
00:24:36,500 --> 00:24:44,100
so we can be known. 
I'm no and how big that 

373
00:24:44,100 --> 00:24:45,700
influence is really relevant to 
me. 

374
00:24:45,700 --> 00:24:47,600
That's up to God. 
He's the one who calls the 

375
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,800
increase. 
I refuse to do anything. 

376
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,500
He's not giving me instruction 
to, but look what it says here 

377
00:24:53,500 --> 00:24:55,200
in 1st Corinthians. 
Just to let you know. 

378
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,100
We're talking about Believers 
here. 

379
00:24:57,500 --> 00:24:59,600
First Corinthians chapter 13 
starting in verse 1. 

380
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,600
Actually, it says, if I speak 
with the tongues of men or of 

381
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:08,200
angels, but do not have love. 
I have become a noisy, gong and 

382
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:12,300
a clanging cymbal. 
Have you ever been in a church 

383
00:25:12,700 --> 00:25:15,500
where it just sounds like a 
bunch of noise? 

384
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:26,400
And they're doing super natural 
or Supernatural things. 

385
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:30,000
They're tapping in to 
Supernatural benefits of God but

386
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:37,600
the atmosphere See, this is what
we don't understand is how our 

387
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:41,400
ambition is an atmosphere 
carrier. 

388
00:25:43,100 --> 00:25:46,800
You can speak with the tongues 
of men or the tongues of angels,

389
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:50,400
meaning, you can be eloquent in 
your speech among men that 

390
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:54,300
they're drawn and captivated by 
how you speak, or you can even 

391
00:25:54,300 --> 00:25:59,700
speak the language of God, but 
if your ambition is selfish, 

392
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,300
then love is not there. 
I'm going to show you. 

393
00:26:03,300 --> 00:26:08,700
Why love's not there and that 
means you are just noise. 

394
00:26:10,300 --> 00:26:14,300
Although you can emotionally 
move people, let's go on. 

395
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,100
He said, if you have the gift of
Prophecy and know, all 

396
00:26:17,100 --> 00:26:21,800
Mysteries, and all knowledge and
if I have all Faith so as to 

397
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:27,200
remove mountains, that's a god 
kind of Faith, but do not have I

398
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:31,300
am how many people want to 
prophesy just so that you'll 

399
00:26:31,300 --> 00:26:34,500
know they prophesied so they 
use, hey Whoa man. 

400
00:26:34,500 --> 00:26:37,300
God use them. 
They're like, yeah God uses me. 

401
00:26:40,700 --> 00:26:44,900
God uses me. 
Sometimes when you come to me 

402
00:26:44,900 --> 00:26:47,000
and say, hey, I believe I got 
some from the lord. 

403
00:26:47,300 --> 00:26:51,000
Well, we gonna find out what she
got because you may actually 

404
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,500
have the gift of Prophecy from 
God. 

405
00:26:53,500 --> 00:26:57,200
That needs to be delivered. 
You may actually be tapping in 

406
00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:04,800
by faith, but your life is 
fixing to be exposed the men and

407
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:09,200
I credit God use you Oh, you 
don't want to hear that, okay? 

408
00:27:09,700 --> 00:27:15,100
Because then it will expose why?
Or maybe your initial was I'm 

409
00:27:15,100 --> 00:27:16,800
here in God. 
But then all of a sudden, the 

410
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,400
accolades of you hearing God 
starts showing up. 

411
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:24,400
And it will expose your true 
ambition. 

412
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:30,700
And unless you cut that off and 
say not, it's not about me, it's

413
00:27:30,700 --> 00:27:33,400
not about me and I'm not talking
false humility. 

414
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:38,700
I'm talking, it is not about me.
I've asked myself often if I do 

415
00:27:38,700 --> 00:27:40,800
nothing else, would it is it? 
Okay? 

416
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:46,400
I mean, people want to be Isaiah
or Elijah but they don't want to

417
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,800
be Obadiah. 
Obadiah one. 

418
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,100
Chap couple chapter know, very 
little book. 

419
00:27:55,100 --> 00:27:59,200
I mean what is God? 
Only used you one time publicly.

420
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:05,700
Could you be okay with that? 
Because here's the problem. 

421
00:28:05,700 --> 00:28:08,400
If you're like I just I know God
wants to you. 

422
00:28:08,700 --> 00:28:12,400
That's that's silliness. 
God wants to use everyone. 

423
00:28:12,700 --> 00:28:15,600
The fact you're even meditating.
I know God wants to use me. 

424
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,800
And if you're consumed with 
wind, will he? 

425
00:28:21,900 --> 00:28:25,200
And when am I going? 
You're going to have a harder 

426
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:29,200
time because really you're 
tapping into a selfish ambition,

427
00:28:29,900 --> 00:28:33,300
you're trying to be known. 
I said you're trying to be known

428
00:28:33,300 --> 00:28:38,000
verse 3 and if I give all my 
possessions to feed the poor and

429
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:42,400
if I Surrender my body right 
that it may be burned. 

430
00:28:43,100 --> 00:28:44,800
It says this but do not have 
love. 

431
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,600
What's it? 
Do you know how many people are 

432
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,200
giving to organization? 
I tell you right now. 

433
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,700
Coach Bo could testify to this 
to I guarantee you people are To

434
00:28:53,700 --> 00:28:55,900
West oxton not because they care
about the community. 

435
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,500
It's because they want to be 
known that they gave to a 

436
00:29:01,500 --> 00:29:05,000
community, although they really 
are caring about it. 

437
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,600
You know, there's a lot of 
wealthy people that will give to

438
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,600
causes not because they care 
about it, but because they care 

439
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:19,100
about the tax return. 
But they stand in front of the 

440
00:29:19,100 --> 00:29:21,800
newspapers. 
They have the big checks out 

441
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:25,100
there aren't there like posting 
everywhere. 

442
00:29:25,100 --> 00:29:27,300
Look what we did. 
Look how much we gave look how 

443
00:29:27,300 --> 00:29:30,100
we did this look. 
We want to get coverage so 

444
00:29:30,100 --> 00:29:37,600
everybody knows. 
Selfish ambition. 

445
00:29:38,900 --> 00:29:41,800
Selfish ambition. 
Are you hearing what I'm saying?

446
00:29:41,900 --> 00:29:44,300
Let's go on but he goes on and 
says this. 

447
00:29:44,300 --> 00:29:49,100
Then starting to Define love, 
love is its patient lovers con. 

448
00:29:49,500 --> 00:29:53,600
It's not jealous. 
Which means in if jealousies 

449
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:57,500
manifesting How come they get to
sing? 

450
00:29:57,500 --> 00:30:00,700
That lead? 
How come Pastor? 

451
00:30:00,700 --> 00:30:03,600
Put them in that position. 
How come they got promoted at 

452
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:07,100
work? 
You might as well go ahead and 

453
00:30:07,100 --> 00:30:08,700
MIT. 
You got a selfish ambition, you 

454
00:30:08,700 --> 00:30:12,800
need to crucify. 
You need to cut it off because 

455
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:16,800
the devil wants to deceive you. 
Well, I would do better in that 

456
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,400
position. 
They'll I mean, I love God, I'd 

457
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,500
be a gretter influencer whether 
you're in a position. 

458
00:30:21,500 --> 00:30:24,900
Not doesn't stop you from 
influencing with God, josef's 

459
00:30:24,900 --> 00:30:27,200
greatest influence was when he 
was in prison. 

460
00:30:27,500 --> 00:30:31,300
Oh, you don't want to hear that.
His greatest influence was when 

461
00:30:31,300 --> 00:30:35,100
he was thrown in prison because 
it was his encounter with other 

462
00:30:35,100 --> 00:30:39,800
inmates that ultimately got him 
an invitation, before the king, 

463
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:43,100
it was not. 
His encounter with his parents, 

464
00:30:43,100 --> 00:30:48,900
it was not his encounter with 
the oh what was the name man? 

465
00:30:49,700 --> 00:30:52,300
The, the he was sold to as a 
slave. 

466
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:58,200
Potiphar wasn't Potiphar's 
house. 

467
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,600
Potiphar sure. 
Didn't say nothing about him far

468
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,000
as Potiphar's concern. 
I can't believe the Kings got a 

469
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,900
rapist up there. 
There's no indication Potter 

470
00:31:06,900 --> 00:31:13,600
forever believe that Joseph did 
not rape his wife, or try to So 

471
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,500
none of those relationships 
propelled him. 

472
00:31:15,500 --> 00:31:19,700
What propelled him was he was 
always knowing there's a word 

473
00:31:19,700 --> 00:31:22,300
from, you know, how many to 
Opportunities he let go. 

474
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:28,400
And even when he stands before 
Pharaoh that day, no selfish 

475
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,900
ambition. 
As you've heard me preach 

476
00:31:30,900 --> 00:31:33,200
before. 
He stands before the king, the 

477
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:37,100
king tells him the dream, he 
knows the interpretation, and at

478
00:31:37,100 --> 00:31:40,100
this point he could say, okay, 
the Lord has given me the 

479
00:31:40,100 --> 00:31:42,100
interpretation of the dream. 
I got it. 

480
00:31:42,500 --> 00:31:45,800
But this is what I like to do. 
I would like to secure my 

481
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,500
release because I'm innocent, 
and you know what? 

482
00:31:48,500 --> 00:31:51,800
He was innocent and that this 
point, this is my opportunity, 

483
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,400
God has given me. 
My opportunity to secure my 

484
00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:04,000
release. 
He did not negotiate the safety 

485
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:10,700
of his own life selflessness. 
He had no guarantee the Pharaoh 

486
00:32:10,700 --> 00:32:13,300
Pharaoh wasn't saved, man. 
That's good. 

487
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,600
All right. 
Now, you understand the charges 

488
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,400
are attempted rape. 
You're a Hebrew, which means 

489
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,100
they were prejudiced against 
them and that policy never 

490
00:32:21,100 --> 00:32:24,300
changed. 
Even when he was made Prince, 

491
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:30,100
the Egyptians would not eat. 
With Joseph cuz they saw them as

492
00:32:30,100 --> 00:32:34,800
low. 
Some he was the man in charge 

493
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:39,200
unless the King was on the 
throne and he could not change 

494
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:47,700
the policy of the land. 
Yet, he still served because it 

495
00:32:47,700 --> 00:32:53,200
was not about that. 
It was bigger and in a selfish 

496
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:56,200
response, he gives him an answer
and then crazy. 

497
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,800
He, he tells him his dream but 
then he gives him the answer on 

498
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:05,900
how to overcome Really. 
You know why? 

499
00:33:05,900 --> 00:33:09,600
A person can do that? 
Because they already know. 

500
00:33:09,700 --> 00:33:13,300
Well, God promotes me anyway. 
So you thought me back in 

501
00:33:13,300 --> 00:33:14,100
prison? 
I'm this. 

502
00:33:14,100 --> 00:33:17,300
He gonna have to come out that 
the end of day, I'm coming out, 

503
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:21,900
I had a dream and he showed me 
what I would be and whether this

504
00:33:21,900 --> 00:33:23,200
is that moment or not, I do not 
know. 

505
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:26,400
All I know is when the moment 
comes it would be that God did 

506
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:30,300
it. 
And I didn't manipulate, I will 

507
00:33:30,300 --> 00:33:35,800
give you an answer if well, 
we're manipulating I said we're 

508
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,000
manipulating now, honey. 
I'll do that. 

509
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:44,500
If okay, one manipulating. 
We start to manipulate while 

510
00:33:44,500 --> 00:33:48,100
selfish ambition Joseph didn't 
do it. 

511
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:49,700
Love is patient. 
Love is kind is not jealous. 

512
00:33:49,700 --> 00:33:51,700
Love does not brag is not. 
Arrogant does not act 

513
00:33:51,700 --> 00:33:54,000
unbecomingly. 
It does not. 

514
00:33:55,300 --> 00:33:57,400
Seek its own. 
Now we're going to Camp right 

515
00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:02,500
there on that one spot. 
Love does not keep secrets on 

516
00:34:02,500 --> 00:34:07,500
here's the thing the Rick Renner
interpretive version defines. 

517
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:09,600
It does not seek its own this 
way. 

518
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:13,900
Love is not ambitious. 
Self-centered are so consumed 

519
00:34:13,900 --> 00:34:17,199
with itself that it never thinks
of the needs or desires that 

520
00:34:17,199 --> 00:34:21,400
others possess Now, why do I say
that? 

521
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:26,400
Because John the Gospel of John?
Our first John tells us that God

522
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:33,500
is love, which means? 
Then God, if God is love and God

523
00:34:33,500 --> 00:34:35,800
is the word in the beginning was
the word, the word was with God,

524
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:41,600
the word that means the word is 
love and the word is Jesus, 

525
00:34:42,100 --> 00:34:46,500
which means Jesus is Love and 
love, doesn't seek its own. 

526
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:55,199
It's always thinking about the 
needs of others first. 

527
00:34:55,500 --> 00:35:00,900
It's not about its ambition, 
it's about the reason why I'm 

528
00:35:00,900 --> 00:35:06,600
here. 
Jesus knew I was here, he was 

529
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:10,400
sent by the father. 
So how did love, who doesn't 

530
00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:13,700
seek his own operate? 
The scripture tells us in John 

531
00:35:13,700 --> 00:35:17,400
Chapter 5 Verse 30. 
He says, I can do nothing on my 

532
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:22,600
own initiative as I hear I judge
and my judgment is just because 

533
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:30,200
I, I do, not seek my own will, 
but the will of him who sent me.

534
00:35:31,300 --> 00:35:33,400
I don't do it. 
I don't think Mom. 

535
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:38,800
It's not that he couldn't he 
chose not to why. 

536
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:45,500
Because love is not selfish. 
In many relationships. 

537
00:35:45,500 --> 00:35:47,800
People are saying I love you and
that's a lie. 

538
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:52,100
They really should say I'm 
lusting for you because I want 

539
00:35:52,100 --> 00:35:56,500
what I can get out of you. 
I want what, what you, how you 

540
00:35:56,500 --> 00:35:59,100
can meet my need and give me 
pleasure. 

541
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:06,300
I'm talking about people who 
said, I do still, Even saying I 

542
00:36:06,300 --> 00:36:08,500
do. 
Lusting. 

543
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,600
Now operating in love because 
when you go do something for me,

544
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,300
when you go do something for me,
when you going to do something 

545
00:36:14,300 --> 00:36:20,400
for me, Well, the husband is the
head of the house he is, which 

546
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,100
means he should be the head 
servant. 

547
00:36:23,700 --> 00:36:27,400
The one who heads in servine 
because the greatest in the 

548
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,200
kingdom of God, is the servant 
all that mean. 

549
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,600
Your wife runs over you. 
That means you run to your wife 

550
00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:38,100
to serve her and you don't have 
to expect that you'll get 

551
00:36:38,100 --> 00:36:41,700
anything, although it will 
happen. 

552
00:36:46,700 --> 00:36:50,600
Hallelujah. 
Because they'll discover who 

553
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:54,400
they are. 
My wife text me while we were 

554
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:58,700
gone and she said thank you for 
all those years calling me a 

555
00:36:58,708 --> 00:37:02,900
woman of God. 
Wow she said that I was blown 

556
00:37:02,900 --> 00:37:06,500
away by it honest I was blown 
away, not that she's not done. 

557
00:37:06,500 --> 00:37:08,400
Give me a cue late. 
And I'm not saying it's just 

558
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:12,600
that something happened in the 
meeting or there that she just 

559
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,300
had a realization again, when 
she's fixing to minister to 

560
00:37:15,300 --> 00:37:18,300
women and know all the junk, 
these women have gone through 

561
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:20,700
And she's having a talking about
being bold and don't live in 

562
00:37:20,700 --> 00:37:23,600
your past. 
And somewhere along the line. 

563
00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:27,000
The Lord reflecting says, 
remember how I used to call you 

564
00:37:27,700 --> 00:37:33,500
before you thought you were 
amen. 

565
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:38,900
But she always was, I said she 
always was and out of that. 

566
00:37:38,900 --> 00:37:41,000
It pulled greatness. 
Why? 

567
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:45,200
Because she's not there for her.
Now, she's there because she's 

568
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:48,500
on assignment and she realizes, 
you know what? 

569
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:50,400
There was a time. 
I didn't believe, and I know 

570
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:52,500
there's women today based on 
what she's going to minister. 

571
00:37:52,500 --> 00:37:55,400
No, they won't believe what I'm 
going to say about them because 

572
00:37:55,400 --> 00:38:00,100
I've been there, but I know it's
true and then out of Honor. 

573
00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:05,000
She thanked me of that moment. 
She thanked me of that moment. 

574
00:38:05,100 --> 00:38:08,300
She thanked me of that moment. 
I mean, she's been so good to 

575
00:38:08,300 --> 00:38:10,000
me. 
So get she better silver and 

576
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:13,300
gold. 
It's amazing, it's amazing. 

577
00:38:13,500 --> 00:38:15,000
And how would I not want to 
serve? 

578
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:17,200
I mean, I was running around 
doing all kind of stuff, because

579
00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:19,200
I love my house and I want to 
get things done because I want 

580
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:22,600
to do other things that just 
projects, right people call them

581
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:28,000
honeydews. 
They are my dues, I mean, 

582
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:32,400
because it's my house too. 
I quit at like it's just hers. 

583
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,000
I mean I don't want her to walk 
around thinking that I would 

584
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:39,600
live in a dump. 
I wouldn't live in a dump. 

585
00:38:40,700 --> 00:38:43,600
Amen. 
I refuse to live in a dump, 

586
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,500
Hallelujah. 
So we just go and I heard my mom

587
00:38:47,500 --> 00:38:49,800
was walk around saying, man, 
she's gonna love that. 

588
00:38:49,900 --> 00:38:53,500
Oh, she's gonna be so excited. 
I'm like she's gonna be excited 

589
00:38:53,500 --> 00:38:56,200
and it's worth doing it and as 
much as we can get done before 

590
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,100
and I was trying to figure out 
how I could accomplish more 

591
00:38:58,100 --> 00:39:00,100
again. 
Why cause it's my house. 

592
00:39:00,100 --> 00:39:03,900
I want to see it done but man, I
know it takes pleasure in her so

593
00:39:03,900 --> 00:39:07,600
I mean left lights on when she 
got there at like 1:30 1:45, 

594
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,300
whatever was at am. 
Now I say I was up. 

595
00:39:10,300 --> 00:39:13,000
I Wait up. 
I mean when I say that I did 

596
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:15,200
kind of doze off. 
I text her. 

597
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:17,400
She didn't respond that. 
They were leaving the airport 

598
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,200
yet. 
I set my little watch here for 

599
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,300
30 minutes. 
I'll get a 30 minute, you know, 

600
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:25,000
in to sleep. 
Let it go off and it did no one 

601
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,500
was there. 
So I did another 15 minutes and 

602
00:39:27,508 --> 00:39:29,900
they see, you know, there she 
is, something like I didn't know

603
00:39:29,900 --> 00:39:32,600
you were leaving, you know, I 
wanted to greet you at the 

604
00:39:32,900 --> 00:39:35,600
garage, right? 
Because you're worth waiting not

605
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:42,100
for being in your bag in. 
And then look at this kitchen. 

606
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,400
Right. 
This is what you've been 

607
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:51,700
dreaming of. 
Hi, doctor said Marcia, it's 

608
00:39:51,700 --> 00:39:54,800
exactly as you imagined it. 
I mean, it's functioning just 

609
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:57,800
like you thought your idea was 
phenomenal? 

610
00:39:59,300 --> 00:40:02,400
Yeah, I mean I didn't put the 
chairs on my couch because my 

611
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:07,400
dog's a little rebellious, I got
them their own bed, but if I 

612
00:40:07,408 --> 00:40:10,400
don't put a chair on the couch, 
she'll rebell. 

613
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:18,900
Many times, I wanted to kick her
out like the Lord did Satan, but

614
00:40:18,900 --> 00:40:29,700
she has an advocate with the 
mother stay off my couch, 

615
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,100
Alleluia John chapter, 8, verse 
28. 

616
00:40:33,100 --> 00:40:36,600
Jesus said this, he says. 
So Jesus said when you lift up 

617
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:39,000
the son of man then you will 
know that I am. 

618
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,800
He and that I can do nothing on 
my own initiative but I speak 

619
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:44,100
these things. 
Paul as the father, taught me, 

620
00:40:44,100 --> 00:40:47,600
what I love about Jesus is that 
Jesus? 

621
00:40:48,900 --> 00:40:53,600
When he calls us to himself, 
he's including us. 

622
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:59,300
He's given us assignment 
purpose. 

623
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:03,600
He's allowing us to find 
ourselves and release our gifts,

624
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:11,400
but since Jesus is known as 
love, that became flesh and an 

625
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,200
attribute of Love, is it doesn't
seek its own. 

626
00:41:14,500 --> 00:41:17,500
Let's look how Jesus had 
responses. 

627
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:19,600
Look at Matthew, chapter 4 verse
23. 

628
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,800
Jesus was a lot different than 
most ministers today. 

629
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:28,500
Indefinitely most Christians in 
general look, what it says when 

630
00:41:28,500 --> 00:41:31,300
Jesus went about all Galilee 
teaching in their synagogues and

631
00:41:31,300 --> 00:41:33,600
preaching the gospel of the 
kingdom, and what was he doing? 

632
00:41:33,900 --> 00:41:38,100
Healing all manner of sickness 
has and all manner of disease. 

633
00:41:38,100 --> 00:41:41,600
Among the people look what it 
says his Fame. 

634
00:41:42,500 --> 00:41:45,300
What did he do? 
His Fame went out through also 

635
00:41:45,700 --> 00:41:50,200
Syria and they brought unto him.
All sick people that were taken 

636
00:41:50,300 --> 00:41:53,000
with divers diseases and 
torments and those who are 

637
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,100
oppressed of the devil. 
Levels with Devils, right? 

638
00:41:56,100 --> 00:41:58,500
Look at this, Jesus was doing 
these things. 

639
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:02,600
And with those who were the King
James says lunatic and those who

640
00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:06,000
had the palsy, he healed them 
and they're followed him. 

641
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:11,300
Great multitudes of people from 
Galilee, from decapolis, from 

642
00:42:11,300 --> 00:42:16,200
Jerusalem, from Judea. 
And from Beyond the Jordan, just

643
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:20,300
because he says, I'm not seeking
my own, I'm doing the will of 

644
00:42:20,300 --> 00:42:22,400
the father. 
Notice Fame came. 

645
00:42:23,300 --> 00:42:25,000
It's amazing. 
How many people want to 

646
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:31,800
establish their own Fame? 
Yet, if you're actually just do 

647
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:35,800
God, there's a Fame in and of 
itself. 

648
00:42:37,900 --> 00:42:47,500
And the devil deceives us in our
fruits and our rewards by trying

649
00:42:47,500 --> 00:42:49,800
to get us to take his path to 
fame. 

650
00:42:50,900 --> 00:42:52,900
Instead of the Lord's path to 
fame. 

651
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:57,500
Come on. 
Look at Luke Chapter 5, Luke 

652
00:42:57,500 --> 00:43:01,900
chapter 5 verse 14 and 15, and 
he chars him to tell, no man, 

653
00:43:02,500 --> 00:43:07,600
but go and show thyself to the 
priest and offer for thy 

654
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:11,500
cleansing, according to Moses 
commanded as a testimony, but so

655
00:43:11,500 --> 00:43:13,700
much. 
The more went there, a Fame 

656
00:43:13,700 --> 00:43:17,600
abroad and great multitudes came
together to hear and to be 

657
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:20,000
healed by him of their 
infirmities. 

658
00:43:20,900 --> 00:43:24,300
In Matthew 4, he healed. 
He cast out Devils. 

659
00:43:24,300 --> 00:43:27,500
He's performing Miracles, Fame 
came, but in the midst of 

660
00:43:27,500 --> 00:43:31,000
Performing Miracles, look what 
he said to people in verse 14, 

661
00:43:31,100 --> 00:43:36,000
he charged hymns to tell. 
No, he said now, listen, I know 

662
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:39,000
we just finished a meeting and 
you just got healed and this 

663
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,100
never happened, but I want you 
talking to people. 

664
00:43:47,300 --> 00:43:53,900
But what do we do? 
We posted on social media, We 

665
00:43:53,900 --> 00:44:02,100
need everybody to know. 
Okay, this is the society. 

666
00:44:02,300 --> 00:44:04,500
Listen. 
It's in the atmosphere. 

667
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:07,800
Now, let's I'm not against you 
posting things that people say, 

668
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,400
I'm not saying that, you gotta 
ask. 

669
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:17,100
Why? 
I mean, don't think I ain't 

670
00:44:17,100 --> 00:44:20,000
gonna talk to my creative team 
is saying I might make an 

671
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:24,200
adjustment. 
Don't be talking about the 

672
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:26,700
Miracles here. 
They need to get out of 

673
00:44:26,700 --> 00:44:30,400
different way. 
You can talk about the church 

674
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:33,200
and talk about the messaging 
talk about the word, but don't 

675
00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:34,700
be saying so many people got 
healed. 

676
00:44:34,700 --> 00:44:37,400
Don't be talking about that 
because of Jesus Christ. 

677
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:38,700
The King says, don't tell 
nobody. 

678
00:44:43,100 --> 00:44:46,200
But now Pastor, if they know 
well, don't you think the Lord 

679
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:49,700
knows? 
And at the end of the day, let 

680
00:44:49,700 --> 00:44:53,200
the one who got healed, take 
care, because here's the real 

681
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:57,500
issue. 
I love being under the radar In 

682
00:44:57,500 --> 00:45:00,800
fact, same to Jesus, hindered 
him. 

683
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:06,700
We want to become so famous that
it can actually hinder your gift

684
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:09,900
Jesus became so famous. 
The Bible says, he could even go

685
00:45:09,900 --> 00:45:11,900
into the metropolitan areas 
anymore. 

686
00:45:13,900 --> 00:45:18,200
In fact, his Fame cause people 
to not hunger for him but they 

687
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:21,700
wanted him to just perform that 
at the end of his three years. 

688
00:45:21,700 --> 00:45:27,800
He had to take people out of 
cities because they were talking

689
00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:30,800
too much. 
You would think. 

690
00:45:30,900 --> 00:45:34,100
Don't you want to testify? 
We should testify sometimes. 

691
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:38,700
Oh, you don't want to hear, but 
we want people to testify about 

692
00:45:38,700 --> 00:45:43,800
how God used us. 
Oh, there's so many ministers 

693
00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:46,500
today. 
Pastor, John can tell you so 

694
00:45:46,500 --> 00:45:52,600
many ministers today. 
So many ministers today, right? 

695
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:56,200
So many the private families 
here. 

696
00:45:56,200 --> 00:46:00,000
So many men, as you all know, so
many ministers today, are 

697
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:03,800
looking for the Accolade. 
Now, it's one thing for us as 

698
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,500
ministers to share things that 
are happening, but I again, 

699
00:46:06,700 --> 00:46:09,400
we're already famous as far as 
we're concerned in the eyes of 

700
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:12,000
our King, we're just doing the 
works of God and we're giving 

701
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,500
him glory man went to me man. 
And it was powerful, what God 

702
00:46:14,500 --> 00:46:16,700
did he did this, this this. 
I'm not saying that's for that, 

703
00:46:16,700 --> 00:46:20,000
you know, God and do nothing. 
Anyway, I just Obedient to him 

704
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:24,200
and he did it. 
And when you actually have that 

705
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:29,300
motive, it will promote you, but
if you actually have the other 

706
00:46:29,300 --> 00:46:32,400
one, you're wondering why you're
not get more invites. 

707
00:46:37,700 --> 00:46:42,600
Okay because here's the thing 
you know but here's the thing 

708
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:45,400
you don't always know because 
the minute you let that selfish 

709
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:49,800
ambition get to deception. 
Then you'll deceive yourself 

710
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:55,000
that you're not selfish. 
That you're actually doing it 

711
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:58,600
for others, but yet there's 
attitudes and there's actions 

712
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:00,900
about your life that are 
contrary to the love. 

713
00:47:00,900 --> 00:47:05,700
In general, like being jealous 
being envious, being short, 

714
00:47:05,700 --> 00:47:09,800
tempered with other people 
again, Todd stand up back there 

715
00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:11,600
in the back. 
He's in think sticky little head

716
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:14,200
as far as leave your hands, you 
know, he's there and right. 

717
00:47:14,700 --> 00:47:17,500
He's young guy. 
I've had a minister on Wednesday

718
00:47:17,500 --> 00:47:20,200
night. 
There may have been people say, 

719
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:21,800
well, how come he's let him 
preach. 

720
00:47:23,100 --> 00:47:28,600
Why you have that problem? 
You should rejoice. 

721
00:47:30,100 --> 00:47:33,700
They got juice and Gifts. 
Talents, amen. 

722
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:36,300
Well these people just got you, 
the church. 

723
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:39,300
How come Pastor use them? 
Well, they may be 11th Hour 

724
00:47:39,300 --> 00:47:42,400
people. 
I'm going to use them just cause

725
00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:44,400
you've been here, 18 years to me
and I'm obligated. 

726
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:51,200
Keep using you. 
Oh, you don't, maybe we've use 

727
00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:56,400
you. 
And you don't need any more 

728
00:47:56,400 --> 00:48:03,400
public use. 
Maybe that's what God wants you 

729
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:05,700
to do. 
Now, Tinker faith is just be the

730
00:48:05,700 --> 00:48:09,300
one behind the scenes, praying 
interceding. 

731
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:13,500
I I used to be in that position.
I used to do this. 

732
00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:17,100
I was there how come they won't?
Let maybe it's time for someone 

733
00:48:17,100 --> 00:48:21,100
else. 
Cuz this ain't about you. 

734
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:26,200
It's about the vision. 
It's about the team. 

735
00:48:29,100 --> 00:48:33,300
I mean at the end of the day, if
the starting quarterback loses 

736
00:48:33,300 --> 00:48:37,600
his spot in practice, he doesn't
get kicked off the team and if 

737
00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:41,500
the new quarterback wins the 
championship, the one who used 

738
00:48:41,500 --> 00:48:45,700
to be gets the ring as well. 
But what it is. 

739
00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:52,000
The ring ain't good enough now. 
Oh And we're willing to Forfeit 

740
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:58,700
rewards for akyol AIDS, but I 
have to be known as the one who 

741
00:48:58,700 --> 00:49:06,000
took the team. 
See now west Augustine. 

742
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:09,100
Y'all know this more than we in 
our league. 

743
00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:11,700
We have to fight against that 
with our young men. 

744
00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:17,000
That they don't cause now we got
recruitment in college. 

745
00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:21,400
Will make a name for you here. 
Now put their pictures up on the

746
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,000
stadium. 
And they will have to learn how 

747
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:27,000
to navigate in that kind of 
society where they won't take 

748
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:30,400
credit. 
To where they'll be able to say.

749
00:49:30,500 --> 00:49:34,400
This isn't about me. 
It's about my team and always 

750
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:37,700
talked about the team told about
the team talking about the team.

751
00:49:40,700 --> 00:49:45,400
Now, I have nothing to say about
the quarterback for Tampa. 

752
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:52,200
Other than that individual has 
proven through his career, that 

753
00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:56,100
he's willing to take less 
financially to get more people 

754
00:49:56,100 --> 00:50:00,400
around for the purpose of a 
team, winning a championship, 

755
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:04,400
which tells me there's something
about a team concept. 

756
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:08,500
They still have that they're 
willing to take less to bring 

757
00:50:08,500 --> 00:50:12,800
more on so that after Something 
can be accomplished because 

758
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:17,100
getting the reward together is 
more important than having a 

759
00:50:17,100 --> 00:50:20,800
stat and being known as the 
most. 

760
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:23,900
I mean, seriously does anyone 
think that somebody else and the

761
00:50:23,900 --> 00:50:27,600
32 teams, which would be 31 now 
deserve more money. 

762
00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:33,700
But yes, some are more are 
higher paid. 

763
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:38,300
And don't you have it and they 
have less rings. 

764
00:50:41,900 --> 00:50:44,800
And that's just one aspect. 
How much more us, who has the 

765
00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:47,700
love of God shed abroad in our 
hearts? 

766
00:50:48,900 --> 00:50:54,200
How much more look what else? 
Jesus said this, he said this 

767
00:50:54,300 --> 00:50:55,300
in. 
Mark chapter 1. 

768
00:50:55,300 --> 00:50:58,200
Again, how did Jesus deal with 
people? 

769
00:50:58,200 --> 00:51:00,200
When the miraculous was taken 
place? 

770
00:51:00,700 --> 00:51:03,400
In Mark chapter 1, verse 23 to 
27 modern. 

771
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:05,800
King James says it this way in 
their synagogue, was a man with 

772
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:11,000
an unclean spirit and he cried 
out saying, what is to do, what 

773
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,100
is too. 
Us and to you. 

774
00:51:13,100 --> 00:51:15,600
Jesus of Nazareth. 
Have you come to destroy us? 

775
00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:18,800
I know who you are. 
The Holy One of God. 

776
00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:23,600
And Jesus rebuked saying be 
quiet and come out of him and 

777
00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:26,900
the unclean Spirit convulsing 
him and crying with a loud 

778
00:51:26,900 --> 00:51:28,800
voice. 
He came out and they were all 

779
00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:32,400
amazed as to question among 
themselves saying, what is this,

780
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,600
what new doctrine is this that 
even that he even commands, the 

781
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:38,700
unclean spirits with authority 
and they obey him notice? 

782
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,300
He said he don't want the devil 
advertising for him. 

783
00:51:44,300 --> 00:51:46,200
Like shut up, don't talk about 
me. 

784
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:48,800
I don't need you to advertise 
for me. 

785
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:56,500
Not only did Jesus deal with 
people who were healed and said 

786
00:51:56,500 --> 00:51:59,300
don't talk about this. 
Don't tell nobody. 

787
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:03,200
But then when the demons try to 
start talking, he says shut up, 

788
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:06,200
don't talk about it. 
Don't mess up, what I'm doing. 

789
00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:12,700
But if we don't watch out, we 
want people to know. 

790
00:52:13,500 --> 00:52:20,100
See, Jesus is greatest selfless 
moment, we find in Luke 22, Luke

791
00:52:20,100 --> 00:52:22,500
22. 
All this brings us to this 

792
00:52:22,500 --> 00:52:26,800
moment in Luke. 22. 
Jesus is in the garden. 

793
00:52:28,300 --> 00:52:31,300
The night. 
He's going to be portrayed by 

794
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:35,300
the disciple. 
He picked, who would not would 

795
00:52:35,300 --> 00:52:40,700
not eradicate selfish ambition 
and how many churches are split 

796
00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:44,600
or damaged because a saint has a
selfish ambition. 

797
00:52:47,100 --> 00:52:49,800
Anytime a Saints talking about a
pastor behind their back. 

798
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:51,500
Guess what? 
Selfish ambition. 

799
00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:57,000
Selfish ambition exist. 
They're jealous RMB me. 

800
00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:59,800
Why would you tell bad? 
Because at the end of the day, 

801
00:52:59,900 --> 00:53:02,400
do you know God has the ability 
to remove? 

802
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:07,500
This means they don't trust God.
David is actually anointed of 

803
00:53:07,500 --> 00:53:10,700
God and he waits for God to 
remove salt even though he has 

804
00:53:10,700 --> 00:53:19,900
literal evidence. and then, when
the Certain members of the 

805
00:53:19,900 --> 00:53:21,700
congregation sympathize with 
him. 

806
00:53:21,700 --> 00:53:23,600
And says, let's overthrow the 
pastor. 

807
00:53:27,700 --> 00:53:30,100
Hallelujah. 
There's no such thing as a 

808
00:53:30,108 --> 00:53:32,300
church split among Saints. 
Who are selfless? 

809
00:53:33,500 --> 00:53:37,200
There's no such thing as gossip 
backbiting, among the saints, 

810
00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:41,800
who are selfless. 
It can't exist because you 

811
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:45,000
eradicate it with love, but if 
you have it, I don't care. 

812
00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:50,700
Whatever are your life. 
You may be the most selfless in 

813
00:53:50,700 --> 00:53:55,300
your marriage, the most selfless
among church members, but you 

814
00:53:55,300 --> 00:53:57,900
have this desire to be known as 
the greatest business ever, 

815
00:54:00,700 --> 00:54:06,000
We're going to have a problem. 
Anything I want to be the 

816
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:08,400
greatest athlete. 
I want to be the if you're the 

817
00:54:08,408 --> 00:54:12,700
greatest athlete, great, why do 
we debate on who the goat is? 

818
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:19,500
Why do we have these debates? 
I personally think the goat may 

819
00:54:19,500 --> 00:54:24,600
have never showed up. 
Because there's a lot of young 

820
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:28,500
men and women who didn't have 
enough self-discipline and they 

821
00:54:28,500 --> 00:54:34,800
were far better athletes. 
And one reason why is because in

822
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:37,900
fact some of the greatest 
athletes we talked about today 

823
00:54:38,300 --> 00:54:41,500
you'll see a time in their life 
where they began to put the team

824
00:54:42,300 --> 00:54:44,200
now that didn't mean they didn't
know if you get it in my hands I

825
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:50,100
can do something but they had to
include the rest. and that's 

826
00:54:50,100 --> 00:54:56,000
just on a marginal level, how 
about in the body of Christ, And

827
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:57,500
he says to his father, his 
father. 

828
00:54:57,500 --> 00:55:04,000
If you're willing to remove this
cup from me yet, Jesus would be 

829
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:09,600
selfless, even to the point of 
death, he had no self 

830
00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:16,300
preservation. 
Jesus says, I'm going to go and 

831
00:55:16,300 --> 00:55:19,900
be considered a murderer. 
They are going to slander me. 

832
00:55:19,900 --> 00:55:22,700
I'm fixing getting a meeting 
where they going all slander me.

833
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:27,800
They going to lie about me, they
going to talk wrong about me, 

834
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:31,800
you know, that ain't true. 
Member wanted to high priests a,

835
00:55:31,900 --> 00:55:33,400
what do you got to say about 
yourself? 

836
00:55:38,700 --> 00:55:41,500
Because he knows I don't really 
care about what you think about 

837
00:55:41,500 --> 00:55:44,800
my reputation only care about 
one person thinking about me 

838
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:52,400
right now, and that's my daddy. 
So in the world's I they 

839
00:55:52,500 --> 00:56:00,100
believed that they eliminated a 
problem, someone unworthy to 

840
00:56:00,100 --> 00:56:06,600
even be on the planet. 
But in the father's eye, he said

841
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,200
this one's going to be given the
name above every name. 

842
00:56:11,500 --> 00:56:18,000
This one is going to be given 
the name above every name, but 

843
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:20,200
you're so cool because we have a
name, too. 

844
00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:25,000
It's amazing how the devil dupes
us. 

845
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:30,100
And we are living in a culture. 
Now that is all about me. 

846
00:56:33,300 --> 00:56:35,700
And don't think it's not around 
you. 

847
00:56:39,900 --> 00:56:41,600
But today, you could pray this 
prayer. 

848
00:56:45,900 --> 00:56:47,800
Today could be your day of 
Liberation. 

849
00:56:48,700 --> 00:56:53,800
Today you could recognize I know
my wife. 

850
00:56:55,100 --> 00:57:00,500
And I want to, I want my why to 
be the love of God with no 

851
00:57:00,500 --> 00:57:05,100
selfish ambition and Lord, no 
matter what you ask me to do. 

852
00:57:06,200 --> 00:57:08,600
I have a response. 
Yes. 

853
00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:10,200
Lord. 
Well, how's that going to make 

854
00:57:10,200 --> 00:57:12,400
you look done? 
My, this is not about what it 

855
00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:14,900
makes me look. 
This is not about my look you 

856
00:57:14,900 --> 00:57:20,000
know, people name-drop. 
Been around name droppers. 

857
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:21,800
I've been with so-and-so 
so-and-so and so-and-so. 

858
00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:29,000
Are you name-dropping? 
He's trying to get your name 

859
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:34,500
associated with. 
You want your name to be in the 

860
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:44,000
room with those names? 
It creeps in so many ways. 

861
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:46,200
It's there. 
I'm all I'm saying is it can be 

862
00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:48,200
there and you know why we have 
to deal with us. 

863
00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:52,700
Let me tell you why, because we 
lived only a selfish ambitious 

864
00:57:52,700 --> 00:57:56,200
life prior to Christ and he has 
to renew our minds, which means 

865
00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:59,100
he has in our spirit. 
We are selfless. 

866
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:03,000
But in our mind, we have the 
residue. 

867
00:58:04,400 --> 00:58:09,900
Of wanting to be known and be 
the greatest. and it seems 

868
00:58:09,900 --> 00:58:16,900
Innocent, but every evil, I may 
try to develop myself to be the 

869
00:58:16,900 --> 00:58:19,500
best. 
I can be according to what God's

870
00:58:19,500 --> 00:58:25,200
given me. 
I want to maximize, but at the 

871
00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:28,300
end of the day, it's amazing 
what God can do to very 

872
00:58:28,300 --> 00:58:34,200
undeveloped things. 
That doesn't mean we shouldn't 

873
00:58:34,300 --> 00:58:38,300
grow and improve. 
Because anything he's telling me

874
00:58:38,300 --> 00:58:44,300
to tear off breakdown get off my
life is so that I'm less and 

875
00:58:44,300 --> 00:58:48,700
less selfish and more and more 
selfless. 

876
00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:53,000
And then when I hear about 
something, someone says or 

877
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:57,500
something, didn't go the way I 
thought I can say my God. 

878
00:58:58,500 --> 00:59:01,200
What you gonna do pastor? 
But God we're going to do, 

879
00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:02,200
honey. 
But God. 

880
00:59:05,500 --> 00:59:08,500
Doesn't matter. 
They're lying about you doesn't 

881
00:59:08,500 --> 00:59:12,300
matter. 
Welcome to the life of Jesus. 

882
00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:19,600
Who has the name? 
Of every day. 

883
00:59:26,700 --> 00:59:28,000
I just thought I'd be doing 
more. 

884
00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:38,100
There's too much of you, that's 
why you can't. because, when you

885
00:59:38,100 --> 00:59:45,400
begin to live selfless or 
selfish selfless, It's amazing. 

886
00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:47,500
What God has start talking to 
you about believing you be like 

887
00:59:48,700 --> 00:59:55,100
I can't do that. 
I cannot do that in love myself 

888
00:59:55,100 --> 00:59:57,400
and you almost like, why are you
asking me? 

889
01:00:00,700 --> 01:00:06,000
Somebody else do that. 
But as Pastor, John George says,

890
01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:07,500
the Lord is moving through the 
Earth. 

891
01:00:07,500 --> 01:00:12,700
Looking whom he may show himself
Mighty and strong again and he's

892
01:00:12,700 --> 01:00:15,600
only going to show himself 
strong and those who are after 

893
01:00:16,100 --> 01:00:26,000
his heart.
