HOW DO YOU DEFINE FAILURE// PASTOR JIMMY MACHARIA

0:00 [Music] [Applause] [Music] today I want to talk about failure versus success because when we are going through turbulent times we are always afraid Jesus asked the disciples when they were about to capsize he asked them why are you afraid reason being they were afraid of failing and capsizing many of us today are prisoners of

0:45 failure and we are always wondering and hoping that we do not fail some of you you are seated here today and you feel like you have really failed in life we said that the word tabul is the word turmoil the word instability when you are full of turbulence we say you are not stable you are unstable your life is full of chaos you are full of ups and downs you are conflicted some of you you are seated here but there are so many conflicts inside of of you your inside is

1:33 turbulent you feel that your marriage is about to fail your business is about to fail your relationship is about to fail some of us we are even in bad relationships because we are afraid of failing so you are in a bad continuous relationship full of uncertainty instabil ability because you don't want to be seen as a failure oh yes and so a lot of people in the church today they are just wearing a facade they are fake because they don't want to project what they really

2:19 are uh because they don't want to be viewed as failures today I came for these people by the time you leave this house you be in love with failure the word conflict is also the word turbulence the word trouble trouble is also the word that can also be compared to turbulence actually the Book of Job job said man who is born of a woman please find that scripture for me man Job chapter 14 and verse one it says man who is born of a woman is of few

3:08 days and they are full of trouble which is turbulence there is nothing that you're going through this morning that is unique Hallelujah I know you might be thinking I'm going through a very unique problem no I'm the only one going through this no job said man include yourself if you're a woman who is born of a woman eh is a few days and full of trouble that is a very encouraging scripture that you are not going through what you're going through because God

3:54 has forsaken you or God has left you but it is part of life that you will have trouble and not little trouble but the Bible says you'll be full of I can't hear you you'll be full of so look at your neighbor and help me preach and tell your neighbor it's okay it's part of what is happening amen now throughout the B throughout the Bible God is SE to have used people who were seemingly failures there is a great relationship between failure and success a lot of people that we feel are successful today

4:42 are failures as well so if you look out through the Bible you will see that God has used people who are seemingly failures Exodus 3: 10 all the way down I don't know whether I'll be able to read every part of it but this is the story of Moses Moses goes to deliver the children of Israel in chapter 10 he says come now therefore and I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring my people this is a call from God and the call is to go and deliver God's people from pharaoh and from Egypt that you may bring my people

5:27 the children of Israel out of Egypt then the Bible says but Moses said to God who am I that I should go to Pharaoh already Moses is feeling like a failure because he had tried in an earlier attempt to deliver the children of Israel and he failed miserably but the Bible continues to so he says I am not capable I who am I that I should even try to deliver the children of Israel verse 19 verse 19 the chap Exodus 5: 19 the Bible says and the officers of the children of Israel and the officers of the children of Israel saw that they were in trouble after it was said You

6:12 shall not reduce my bricks from your daily quarter all right then as they came out from Pharaoh they met Moses so these are the children of Israel that he has going to deliver but then instead of them being delivered more libary work was added on them are you listening are you following me so when he's coming out he meets the the leaders of the children of Israel and they begin to accuse him and they begin to you know onea they tell him then as they came out they met Moses and Aaron who stood there to meet them verse 21 and they say to them let the Lord look on you and judge

7:00 because you have made us abhorent in the sight of pharaoh and in the sight of his servants to put a sword in their hand to kill us like you you came to deliver us but we are going to die at this moment Moses is like a real failure because the assignment he was given to to do by God he rather looks like he's failing in it and I'm here to tell somebody today that just because it is failing it doesn't mean that it's not from God ah look at your neighbor tell your neighbor neighbor just because it is failing it is not that it is not from

7:51 God look at verse 23 verse 23 uh actually verse 22 the Bible says so Moses reti hand to the Lord and said Lord why have you brought trouble on these people why is it that you have sent me but it looks like it is failing because your marriage looks like it is failing because it looks like your your your m is trouble isn't it but I'm here to

8:37 tell you just because it looks like it is failing it doesn't mean it was not from the Lord oh I wish I got a a better amen and verse 23 he says in verse 23 for since I came to pharaoh to speak in your name he has done evil to these people neither have you you delivered your people at all it's like I'm failing I'm failing I came to deliver them but they are not being delivered so Moses looked like a failure all through he looked like a failure another guy who looked like a failure was Peter in the Bible many of you would recall Peter denied

9:24 Jesus how many times three times like you you have gotten saved 20 this is your 21st time and you're not even sure back slide even today Jesus was denied by Peter three times Jesus Peter somebody came to Peter and a young girl and said you are with Jesus and she said who me me me

10:24 and then the Bible says that for the third time when the crew or cro or whatever you can decide for yourself anyway when the cck crew when the made noise Peter Peter felt like a failure immediately Peter back and went back to fishing but guess what when Jesus came back he said I want Peter to come and he told Peter from now

11:10 on feed my sheep feed my lamb a failure was Pi by Jesus to be the head of the church I am here to tell one failure that your failure is not the end you are on your journey to success oh somebody ought to shout a better amen now sit down I have so much to say this morning now JM Barry he said we are all failures all right at least all the best of us are this was a great author a great guy he said we are all

11:56 failures at least all the best best of us are another guy called Nelson Boswell he said the the difference between greatness and mediocrity is often how an individual views a mistake that the difference between greatness and mediocrity is often how an individual views a mistake so brothers and sisters how do you define failure how do you define failure one of the greatest problems people have with

12:42 failure is that they are too quick to judge isolated situations in their lives and label them as failures instead they they need to keep the bigger picture in mind the bigger picture is the success that you're going to the bigger picture is the marriage that God has given to you the bigger picture is the ministry that God has called you into the bigger picture is the multi-millionaire that God has called you to become the bigger picture is the raising of these children that God has given to you so you cannot judge isolated situations in your

13:27 life and believe and label them as failure I want you to help me preach look at your neighbor and tell your neighbor neighbor NE failure is not final now changing your perspective on failure will help you to persevere and ultimately achieve your desires you must change your perspective of failure failure is actually not bad failure is important I want you to ask yourself how do I judge failure and I want to ask you that question how do you judge

14:15 failure we learn about failure by unlearning what failure is not because we have all grown up afraid to fail afraid to be seen as failures but this morning I want to give you seven things that failure is not number one failure is not avoidable you must fail failure you cannot avoid it it is not avoidable everybody even the most the most smart looking Sharp

15:01 Dressed mascara what are these things uh they eyelashes well done hair looking kind of a person in the in the church even the the guys who look like they very together they wear matching uh uh matching clothes with their wives even the guys with spectacles you know the guys with spectacles they all look like doctors and they all look like they're serious I want to tell you brothers and sisters everybody fails everybody errors and makes

15:49 mistakes Oh I thought that will set somebody free today including yours truly everybody in the in in in this life makes mistake if you're Are a Human Being you are going to make mistakes look at the guy perfect one who was not even shouting amen tell them everybody including you don't be afraid of them don't be afraid don't be afraid of them tell them everybody including you makes

16:38 mistakes brothers and sisters if you are a human being you're going to make mistakes now look at the quick rules for Being Human quick rules for Being Human number one rule number one you will learn lessons walk with me you will learn lessons because every mistake is a lesson rule number two these are rules of being a human being you will learn lessons there are no mistakes only lessons rule number two there are no mistakes only lessons rule number three a lesson is repeated until it is

17:24 learned now a lot of people are stuck because they have refused ref to learn a lesson in their mistake even if your spouse is a mistake that is a lesson and it will be continuous until you learn a lesson is repeated until it is learned rule number four if you do not learn the easy lesson they get harder if you don't learn the easy lessons they get harder and that is what we have have written down there pain is one way God gets your

18:10 attention God is trying to get your attention through pain through trouble through turbulence through breaking up of the marriage through the disease in your life through the the financial problems in your life God is trying to say hey hey he hey I'm trying to get your attention because if you do not learn the easy lessons they get harder and harder these are rules for Being Human Being I came for you yes number five rule number five you will know you have learned a lesson when your actions

18:56 change if you don't change your action you never learned the lesson you will know you have learned a lesson when your actions change so the first thing that failure is not failure is not avoidable you must fail you must make a mistake if you are a human being you will make a mistake oh yes oh yes and all the mistake making human beings say oh yes I want you to to be comfortable in that because some of you you want to live like robots some of you you are like eggshells it's like somebody we cannot

19:41 really talk to because you don't want to be seen in any negative light because you don't want to be seen as somebody who can make mistakes but I am here to tell you you will make mistakes you will fail you will fail in one thing or another amen your business cannot start today and succeed tomorrow actually they say it must take around 4 years before it really makes it that is why no entrepreneur is perfect amen number two another thing you should know about failure what failure is not failure is not an event failure is not an event

20:30 failure is a process just as success is a process so is failure failure is not someplace you will arrive no no one can conclude that they have failed until they breathe their last breath failure is not a destination it's not an event it's a a process you don't just fail today you will fail because of a certain process that you are involved in either you do not listen to advice or you do not follow instructions failure you are stubborn

21:18 failure my brothers and sisters is not some place that you will arrive success is also not an event success is a process so failure and success they go hand in hand because it's a process that you must go through so until you breathe your last breath you cannot conclude that you are a failure I'm waiting for it to sink H somebody needs to prophesy to themselves and say I am not a failure I am not a faure and till I breathe my last breath I know your mother said you're a

22:04 failure I know your osolo boyfriend said you're a failure but that is not the determinant of Who You Are I Am who God says I am I can do what God says I can do I know your biologic your biology teacher say made you are a failure but what you did in form four what you got in form four is not a determinant ah I am here to tell you it's not a determinant you know when let me give you a short story when I got saved I was

32:58 years of my marriage God blessed me I was blessed and I remember I was I used to drive a green stretch mercedesbenz E350 long long long long chases I think long whatever that bends when the sun comes out it turns black when the Sun goes out it turns green so I decided to go and visit my mother and the sound system oh my God hon my [Applause]

33:48 guy listen so as I was driving I was just moving Miss nice music You by the way there is such a a great array of genre of gospel music when you listen to it you wonder whether it is Gospel beautifully done so when I

34:36 turned anyway I'm preaching about failure and success as I was driving as I turned to my parents when I turned guess who I saw I'll finish next Sunday number three I'm serious I saw the lady who rejected me she can be sister Raa she can be mind your own business and then when I saw I just slowed down because that was in such a

35:23 way I'm talking about many years ago yeah more than or actually probably 15 years ago so when I turned I turned I saw her sleepers then I I slowed down then I dro the window then she shouted and say Jimmy [Applause] God is good God God I'm here to tell you you

36:09 have to stop staying in that place where you had an event it is time for you to know failure is not an event that thing that happened to you is not final there is so much waiting for for you up and bely can I hear an amen number three failure failure is not an objective failure is not an objective is not something that can be proven to you through facts or an objective that you want to accomplish no failure is

36:56 subjective because because you are the only person who can label what you do or did as failure what others are saying who is neither here nor there your perception and response to your mistakes determines whether your actions are failures I want to tell you something my brothers and sisters three steps forward plus two steps backward equals to one step forward three steps forward plus two steps backward equals to one step

37:42 forward so I want you to know today failure is subjective it's not what people are saying about you because there are some people here you are prisoners of what people say about you you don't even want anyone to know you in church because you are afraid they will say Church you are always afraid you always afraid of what people will say because it looks like you figure and you look at failure as an objective thing but failure is subjective it is you who determines how you feel and you're the one who can pronounce yourself a failure or not your perception and your response

38:29 to your mistake determines whether your actions are failures now I remember when I went for my results my kcsc results you know my dad knew I am finished he had even our neighbor had a like immediate neighbor she had an a like she was an a student oh my gosh I A+ if there was a like she was sharp so her results just came like this so and then I think the people who

39:16 are surrounding us in our area their Leist was B so I had my biological father telling my mother in in in Kisa who was repeat so I went for my results when I saw my results I saw what I've gotten it was a miracle for me what I had gotten I was so happy that I took myself out [Applause] I went to a place in town called balica to eat the the the the uh uh

40:07 Kebab so my father kept on waiting for me so he kept on telling my mother your son has failed I don't even know whether he'll come home but me I was just parting with my Kebab I was so happy that I couldn't believe it like what i' had gotten you want to know what i' gotten just know it was a miracle are you listening to me yes so when I went home I even through the results I said but it was not anywhere near my neighbors but what happened to me is that failure was not an objective it was subjective I did not see what I got as

40:54 failure I've seen people who had gotten better than what I got and decided that they have failed and they are going to repeat so I decided I'm moving forward I'm going to make it in this life and I'm here to tell you that you are the one you are now seated you are depressed you are unhappy because the event or the situation in your life has has kept on speaking to your head and your spirit that you are nothing you are good for nothing you are like Moses people are meeting you and they're saying instead of you helping us you have actually messed our life and I want you to know that you are the one to determine whether you are a failure or

41:40 not that one I can't even do it for you it is subjective it is dependent on your perspective number four brothers and sisters is that failure is not the end enemy as far as success is concerned failure is not the enemy many of us we see failure and we see my enemy my enemy my enemy but I want you to know that it takes adversity to create success it cre it takes adversity to create success as you leave those doors I want you to be a friend of

42:28 adversity because I can tell you today that you will never be a success until you conquer adversities it was adversity of Goliath that propelled David to become the king of Israel if there was no Goliath there was no kingship for David he had to pull down the Goliath who was such a Min to the children of Israel and it was until then that is just Journey to the top began your journey to the top your journey to to to to success it is coupled and full of adversity if you're experiencing Financial adversity it is

43:17 part of your journey to the Top If you experiencing marital adversity it is part of your journey to the Top If You experiencing whatever form of adversity it is part of your journey to the Top If you are going to nakuru I can assure you whether you like it or not you will encounter certain things on the road to nakuru if you start seeing the beach and you start seeing coconut trees I want to assure you you are not on your way to nakuru but if you're going to nakuru you're going to see Viewpoint you're going to see the rift valley whether you are on my mahu side or or you are on the

44:04 other side of limuru and whatever I am here to tell you that failure is good it is the fatalize on your road to success failure is not your enemy people who see failure as the enemy are captives to those who conquer it if you keep seeing failure as an enemy you'll be a captive of the guys who conquer fear you will always be a captive of these people now a guy called har V Pro no Pro no the he said the fellow who never makes

44:51 mistakes takes his orders from those who does from the one who does the guy who doesn't want to make mistake you are clean you are you don't want to make any mistake you want to be just perfect this guy he said the fellow who never makes mistakes takes his orders from the one who does it's a mystery apparently the people who make mistakes and recover from them they eventually become leaders they will eventually become successful but you with your Mr Clean attitude I don't want to make a mistake I don't actually I don't trust people who have never made mistakes you cannot advise me if you

45:37 have never made a mistake before you give me advice show me your [Applause] scars that is why you can't get your advice from ex from Instagram people are bashing uh uh this guy this rapper what is calligraph Jones for his [Music] house I knew calligraph Jones when he was living in the ghetto in KY with his

46:24 brother when I see him having a huge house and and whether it looks like a mall or not I clap for him I celebrate him it is the culture of failures and people who don't understand life that is always jealous of people who are successful I pray that in Harvest family church we are not going to be jealous of people who make it and people who are successful but we will be people who celebrate when they buy a new car don't ask are you going to foil it G we don't want that kind of a mentality in the church somebody shout amen look at your neighbor tell your neighbor I'll be happy for you if you

47:10 Excel now listen to this permission to fail equals to permission to [Applause] excel permission to fail I'm doing a lot of maths I'm adding and I'm equaling to something but permission to fail if you give yourself permission to fail you are giving yourself permission to excel Ah that's a drop mic moment but I feel like maybe it's too much for you maybe I should go home permission to fail give yourself permission to fail Kate are you listening to me give yourself permission to fail because the moment you allow yourself to fail you're giving yourself

47:57 permission to excel do I have excelling people in the house if you have decided I'm going to the Top If you have decided I will not give up I want you to shout your loudness yes you must give yourself permission to fail I have not I have not succeeded in everything that I've tried to do no I have failed yeah I have even been called yeah I

48:50 failed I'm a street smart guy I'm not a stupid guy but I am telling you that I have in many things I have tried I've tried I've given people money to invest they disappeared they said [Applause] what are you listening to me I have failed but you have to give yourself permission to fail my friend so that you can can Excel number five I'm talking to you who is seated at home and I want to acknowledge the

49:36 people watching online I'm also talking to you you are watching online because you are crying over a failed relationship you are crying over a failed job you are feeling discouraged let me tell you even if these guys in this country they mess up country guess what you can still succeed in the midst of chaos oh yes oh yes by the way God has a way of lifting people in the midst of turbulence and chaotic situations oh yes I believe in that kind of a God that when things don't look like they're succeeding and

50:22 good he will lift you up in the midst of that yeah he will raise up a standard when that's why my favorite song nowadays is oceans that song they're singing when they singing they're not singing for it's for me I'm encouraging myself oh yes because God is telling you and I that even if the Oceans Rise even if the waves come I I will I will and I will gaze I will arise above this yeah and and keep my eyes above I'll keep my eyes above the waves

51:15 [Applause] lyrics look at the words the words is where the power is the Bible say the words that I speak to you they are spirit and they are life and this song says When Oceans Rise what will I do When Oceans Rise my soul will rest in your Embrace and then it says what for I am yours and you are mine God is known to raise people in the midst of the storm number five failure is not irreversible a lot of people they have resigned to I am a failure it cannot be reversed or

52:02 it's too bad it cannot be reversed or it's too much it cannot be reversed but I want you to know today failure is not irreversible it can be reversed Peter failed by denying Jesus but when Jesus rose from the dead he went looking for Peter and he had a deep conversation with Peter John chap 21:1 15-17 Peter failed and probably he thought this can never be reversed this one is I am finished

52:49 mea can I say it yeah nobody can finish you you are the only one who can it is is either God or you even the devil cannot finish you the devil tried to finish job but he couldn't finish job job said there is a hedge around him so Peter thought he had he was finished but when Jesus had eaten breakfast Jesus said to Simon Peter Simon son of Jonah do you love me more than this he said to him yes Lord you know that I love you he said to him feed my l arms he was trying to say to him that look you are not finished oh somebody said that my father

53:36 has died I am finished even the death of your parent cannot finish you even the death of a loved one of a of of your husband or your wife cannot finish you even the death of your son or your daughter it cannot finish you even the death of the economy it cannot finish you because failure is is not irreversible it is actually reversible this man he had given up he had said I'm finished and that's the difference between Peter and

54:22 Judas Judas Judas H not Judas karoke Judas Iscariot Judas when he realized he had failed instead of going back to Jesus he went to kill himself because his failure to him was not reversible guess what if Judas would have gone back to Jesus he would have been forgiven yeah there is no mistake that you have done that Jesus

55:08 cannot forgive I know you don't believe me but I'm telling you I'm here to tell you there is no mistake that you have committed that Jes but Jesus Jesus can forgive you look at this proverb a Texas Pro proverb it says it doesn't matter how much milk you spill as long as you don't lose the cow it doesn't matter how much milk you spill as long as you don't

55:53 lose the cow so what does it mean it means see the big picture not just the spilled milk even better and you want to kill no you think I'm joking somebody somebody I think I think I met

56:39 this guy who was saying that they attended a barrier of a guy who killed himself in the US because the girlfriend cheated on him that is a spilled milk you want to kill yourself because the auctioneers have picked everything boss the same hands that created what was taken by the auctioner and the same brain is with you now it's even better you have a pastor how can you give up because of a spilling of

57:25 milk as long as the cow is alive I can build it again as long as I have my brain I can build it again as long as I have my hands I can build it again I wish I had a Believer I don't I don't know whether you are here but I am here to tell you don't kill yourself over a failed marriage I think mea are you listening to me I'm about to finish I'm on point number five so I'm two two more points I finish don't kill yourself and don't give up and don't

58:12 cry that is after one or two days of crying wipe your faceh can I hear an amen and you know that's why I love my father my biological father sit down I tell you a story about my biological father one time he was building he was building he's a great Builder my biological father is a great Builder and he was building uh somewhere in comaro and I was the one overseeing that project so on Sunday so we had done the the the the the foundation we had lifted we had done the first lab for the first floor so we were now building the stone work so that

58:57 we could go and do the second floor uh slab so I came out I was going to church on a Sunday he was sleeping you know um I was a Christian I was born again I was preaching even and I was going to the stage so it used to be the stage where we would pick mat when you look straight I would see that building coming up so when I looked I saw so I decided to go there so Church going on post so I went there and guess what I found the whole building had been flattened in the

59:45 night I mean these are millions of Shillings so I ran back home I even they were still sleeping I knocked Mom Mom you see when your father is sleeping you call the mother so so mom mom mom so I woke my mom I she came out I said do you know my dad stayed in the house never went to even look at that building for one week never left the house but the day he left do you understand he went to start another project yeah he was just him your morning should not be more than one week yes it is 25 years since you were rejected

1:00:30 by that boy but Instagram I'm here to tell you rise up I said rise up and move on shout amen if you are here I'm I know I'm talking to somebody here I know I'm talking to somebody here your failure is not final I repeat it failure is not irreversible amen see the big picture see what the big picture not just the spilled milk yeah from that project he have built more

1:01:16 projects after that more projects after that because mistakes that is the breakfast and turbulence is the breakfast of Champion number six as I conclude failure is not a stigma failure is not a stigma you see Peter did not get the stigma of a disaster he eventually became a successful Apostle make each failure a step to success not a stigma whatever mistake you have done whether it's you are called a divorce just make that failure a step to success don't

1:02:05 stigmatize yourself and say you know me I am a failure I can't keep any man I can't do any business it succeeds there is something wrong with me there's nothing wrong with you you're in the process make each failure a step to success not a stigma Peter became a great Apostle even after that failure Moses he became a great man of God after failure David even after his failures he became a great man don't allow yourself to be stigmat by your failure number seven and

1:02:51 the last one is that failure is not final failure is is not final Moses who was a failure he still delivered the children of Israel the scripture I read for you Exodus chapter 5 after a few more chapters there Moses walks out with the children of Israel he was successful Moses delivered the Israelites even though he had looked like he was a failure the next one is Peter became a great Apostle even though he had denied Jesus the next one is Abraham became our father of Faith even though he had

1:03:37 failed in many instances God [Music] but even then he still became our father of faith and then the next one is David David became the king the great king of Israel even though he had failed in many things God is in the habit of using failures failure is not final my brothers and sisters Paul Paul was a

1:04:23 failure Paul Paul Paul Paul in the Bible he was called Soul he was a murderer but God used him to become a great Apostle every Sunday people talk about Paul oh yes every Sunday people talk about Paul Paul became a great Apostle even though he had been a failure now failure is simply a price we pay to achieve success in conclusion the process is not going to be easy but that is the price that we must pay all the road to

1:05:09 success all the road to success lead through the land of failure all the road to success lead through the land of failure goodness news is anyone can make it through failure anyone including you and you and you I want you to nudge your neighbor and tell your neighbor you can make it through failure amen Rob Parson a great man also say tomorrow belongs to the failures

1:05:56 tomorrow belongs to the failures ra person so in a short just a short recap what have I been saying this is the process and the cycle of success the first you start everybody who Bec become successful is somebody who's very excited about trying things testing things testing things test is not like no I'm talking about people who like testing

1:06:44 things P are pushing lines so that's where everybody who become successful STS so that is why everybody who is trying to test can I do this business can I do this thing can I start this company can I start a marriage can I start a family you are testing things that you have never done before so the next thing about these people is that they fail because when you're testing here there you're trying to do this you're trying to do that you're trying Bitcoin you're trying this you will definitely go to the next place which is failure so people who are not you know they do not just succumb to the status quo and mediocrity they're always testing and trying something new

1:07:30 something that has never been done something that their family has never done and so they fail but then they don't stop at failing they learn their mistakes become their lessons so they learn from their mistakes so because they learn they improve all right so because they improve they reenter so re-entering is that they become successful at that level but now the amazing thing is that it doesn't stop there because now you have begun to test the joy of this cycle so you move to the next level where you test again you fail then you learn then you improve

1:08:18 then you reenter so you're going to always be in this cycle that's why I've written this cycle never ends so do you want to be a success try something tomorrow try something today try try to be a Shepherd try and be a Shepherd in the church try Jesus we have failed we have been with Jesus but we have also failed in many things sometimes we have left Jesus down sometimes we have completely dropped him we have left him hanging but then we learn after we fail

1:09:06 then we know what our mistake was then we come back and improve and then we reenter we reenter some of you say you see what you allowed yourself to do is to fail and remain at the fail level and because you are always afraid of failing you have not made failure your friend you don't want to try again and fail so I'm here to tell you my brothers and sisters what I've been preaching about is in that one cycle Circle right there testing failing learning improving reenter and the cycle

1:09:53 continues throughout your life so when you finish one cycle you go higher when you finish that cycle at that level you go higher so you keep on going higher and higher some of you you can sing but you are afraid to fail some of you you can be involved in the church but you're afraid to fail some of you you can give you can actually do the entire tiles outside there but you are afraid you see you are afraid to try and test even the

1:10:40 principles of tithing and the principles of giving and that is why you remain small and mediocre for the rest of your life so brothers and sisters the question that I have for you is what is Jesus saying to you [Music] today what what is Jesus saying to you today you have been sitting in this service some of you you are scrolling your phone
