Brief Summary

This YouTube video from Iglesia CLS Tampa focuses on the importance of prioritizing God in all aspects of life, according to the theme for the year 2025. It emphasizes that true faith involves acknowledging reality and not being misled by false theologies. The sermon outlines six ways to trust in God wholeheartedly, leading to a transformed life where God comes first in thoughts and actions.

  • Focusing on God's Word
  • Prioritizing God in all aspects of life
  • Recognizing God's character and order

INTRO

The message for the year 2025 is to focus on God's Holy Word, emphasizing Jesus' role throughout the Bible, from creator to Messiah. The speaker welcomes the congregation and those connected online, expressing gratitude for their prayers and highlighting the honor of being together. Psalm 63:1-5 is read as a call to thank God for His love and blessings, acknowledging that being called children of God is undeserved yet given out of love. A prayer is offered, thanking God for His care, blessings, and the opportunity to worship, asking for wisdom and discernment for the speaker of the day's message, and for the praise band to open the heavens with their worship.

ALABANZA

The congregation engages in a worship session, singing praises to God and declaring His worthiness. The lyrics emphasize dancing freely in His presence, being covered by His light of love, and recognizing themselves as children of the great I am. The songs continue to exalt God as king over creation, expressing a desire for Him to break darkness and shine in glory. The worship culminates in adoration and a declaration of Jesus' name over every heart and mind, seeking peace and freedom from addictions and depression. The name of Jesus is proclaimed as power, healing, and freedom, with a call to break chains and shine light in darkness. The worship team leads the church in singing about exalting Jesus from the mountains to the cities, over every enemy and for their families. The session concludes with songs about arriving on a cloud surrounded by glory and majesty, joining the elders in worship, and declaring God as holy.

PREDICA

The sermon begins with Proverbs 3:5-6, urging listeners to trust in the Lord with all their heart and not rely on their own understanding. The sermon's theme is "Everything changes when God comes first," emphasizing that while many claim to put God first, their actions may not reflect this. The speaker clarifies that faith should not deny reality and warns against a false theology that attempts to force God to fulfill personal desires. The human capacity to decree is acknowledged, but it's stressed that such decrees do not bend God's will. Believers should live a genuine faith rooted in God's word, understanding that God still speaks today but within His sovereignty.

The speaker poses the question of what happens when God is or isn't first in one's life, noting that God seeks a holy church without stain or wrinkle. Six aspects of trusting in Jehovah wholeheartedly are presented:

  1. God is a God of character and order: God leaves nothing to chance, transforming chaos into cosmos. Ignoring this order leads to human opinions replacing God's truth, the material replacing the eternal, and work replacing family and intimacy with God. The story of Aaron in Exodus 32 is used to illustrate the consequences of not waiting on God and inventing solutions, cautioning against religious activities without spiritual depth.
  2. When God is not first, confusion reigns: The story of Martha and Mary illustrates that doing the right thing isn't always the essential thing. A life centered on doing can distract from what's most important, which is being at the feet of Christ. Symptoms of confusion emerge when God isn't prioritized, leading to spiritual uncertainty, emotional distress, and impulsive decisions.
  3. There is power in prioritizing the intimate and the invisible: The kingdom of God moves in the invisible, in faith, prayer, obedience, and intimacy with God. Without secret prayer and intimacy, the Christian life becomes only appearance. God rewards what is done when no one is watching, not what is done to impress.
  4. When God takes control, everything aligns: Trusting God means surrendering control, not out of weakness, but out of trust. This leads to clearer decisions, lightened burdens, wisdom in place of haste, and life flowing with the rhythm of the kingdom.
  5. Peace comes from the right priority: The peace of God surpasses all understanding and comes from having God first. This peace protects the heart and mind in the midst of storms and difficulties.
  6. The results of a life aligned with God produce internal and visible fruits: Prioritizing God produces a profound transformation from the inside out, bringing clarity, strength, healthier relationships, and sensitivity to spiritual things.

The sermon concludes by emphasizing that putting God first is a daily decision and a dynamic relationship with Him, leading to a full life with purpose, balance, peace, and direction. An invitation is given to return to a correct principle and put God first in everything, followed by a prayer for God to be first in all areas of life.

We thank you, Lord, for the praise band. May that group,

35:47 have conquered hell. Who will be able to? Who will be able to? [Music] Hallelujah. We worship you Jesus. Praise Him, Church. Alleluia. Worship Jesus. Alleluia. Alleluia. When I hear this song it just makes me think of the book of Revelation when John says, "Who will be worthy? Who will be worthy?" And the word of God says that the only one who is worthy is the King of Kings and Lord of lords. Know? Maybe you're here, going through the battle of your life, maybe you don't see a way out, maybe

36:33 depression is consuming you, maybe sadness is consuming your finances, but I want to tell you that nothing, nothing, nothing will be able to counteract what Jesus already did on the cross. And that's what we're singing in this place. We are saying that the kingdom of God has prevailed, that Jesus on the cross won. He defeated the devil, he defeated the demons, he defeated the storms, he defeated your financial problems, he defeated your health problems, he defeated depression, he defeated oppression, and nothing will be able to rise up against the church, because Jesus paid a very high price, which was his precious blood shed for

37:20 us. So no matter what we're seeing, it doesn't matter that the world is ending. Who will be able to? Jesus of Nazareth. He is the one who can. He is the one who goes with us. He is the mighty giant. He is who he is. No one will be able to prevail against the church. Not because we are saying it here , because he said it first, because that is what Jesus said. So, beloved church, understand what you are singing. Dare to open your mouth and declare what the word of God says. You are the

38:07 church. No one will be able to go against the church because the Lord said so and I believe him. Lord, we are your church. Here we are, Lord, prostrate before you, understanding that you are holy, holy, holy and there is no one like you, Lord. Oh Lord, we bow down, Lord, at this hour we surrender all that we are, Lord, for we are nothing without you. And we say to you, aba, father, aba, father, aba, father, we adore you, we

38:53 bless you. Thank you, Holy Spirit. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Jesus, because you won. That's why we're here today. Today we stand as a church because you paid the ultimate price for us, Lord, and we will never live to thank you for what you have done for each of us. So all we can give you is our worship. Thank you, Lord, for the privilege of worshipping and glorifying you until you come for us. And God's people say, "Give the Lord a hand.

39:40 The Lord is good. You may sit down, but do not stop worshipping him." Oh, but the church didn't listen. Don't stop adoring him. We cannot stop worshipping Him because we have the privilege of being able to worship Him. I think that's why the devil hates us so much, because he can't do what you and I can. But it doesn't touch what it touches, which is the ads. So welcome to your church Christ, the Tampa Way. How good it is to be in the house of the Lord. We thank you for being here with us. Please stay put if you're watching us on social media. Thank you, and don't move because we know God has a powerful word for us here at our church, but also for you

40:26 who are watching us through your screens. So glory be to the name of Jesus. If you're not following us, please follow us on Facebook and YouTube. So that? So that the gospel continues to be spread to bless others. Amen. Remember that in this church we do not want to be famous. The only famous person here is Jesus Christ. The only one who died for you is called Jesus. We just want to preach the gospel as he commanded us. So we want to know if anyone is here for the first time. If you are visiting us for the first time, we will ask you to please stand. We want to greet you. Glory be to the name of Jesus. We're here with this week's program every

Thank you, Nicole. Cora, Cora is with the young people, with the children and sings with the group. How good it is to have people who serve the Lord with all their heart. And I want to introduce you to our newest member.

56:40 God has been working in Naliet's life , but God has already said yes to her and is with us. So church, give a big round of applause to the Lord. Thank you, my beloved, thank you for your work. But the greatest, the greatest pride and joy that I feel is and is a holy joy, it is not a joy of any privilege because I have certain fears and you will understand why. I don't know if you have seen musically what the group has done. God is working in the lives of each of them. So please I beg you to pray

57:26 earnestly for the Cairos Tampa group. Not because they are my children, let me tell you, not because they are my children. For those who don't know and for those who are here for the first time, Natalia is at the piano and look what God does. Even though there was no volunteer, he sent a person from Mexico, took him to California, and from California brought him here. And that's David Mierno. God does as he pleases and when there is none, God sends. And we have to be sure of that, that God, our God, is sovereign in everything he does. Thank you, Natalia. Thank you David, Cristian,

58:12 Gabriel and Nicole. May God continue to use him greatly. And you know why I did this. I'm not used to this, but so you can get to know your pastor a little bit , I grew up in the church. I grew up, I grew up within the church, I grew up within the pastoral core, because at 14 years old I learned to play drums, to play timbales, to play conga and everything related to minor percussion. I learned about some analog consoles that came with a glass bottle that had to be lit an hour before the

58:58 service so they were ready for service. I learned about radio, I studied broadcasting, I studied marketing, I studied diplomacy, and I never thought I'd see myself in front of a pulpit. I don't like to talk about myself, but I want to let you know this. Despite growing up within the church, despite being within the pastoral core, and I'll tell you why the pastoral core, our church in the Dominican Republic had a radio program and a television program and I was on both. I was going

59:44 to punch, I was going to get to know the radio and the television guy, I was going with my mom and wherever they needed me in production, I was there. If they needed me on camera, I was there. That's why you sometimes see your pastor with a cell phone in his hand texting Euri, because if there's one thing I like to give to the Lord, it's quality in what I do. I would like to break myself into 10,000 pieces and do everything to try to get it right, but the Lord has taught me to be patient. Patient in what? in which he is in charge of the sound, the praise and everything that pertains to

1:00:30 the service. And with that patience, beloved brother, I want you to help me pray, to pray for the property. We have another one, we're in the process, but the contracts, the people involved, everything that happens in that environment, we need God's hand. God's provision has already established the Tampa path for Christ. But without his seal and confirmation we can't go anywhere. And while we are here, be patient and

1:01:17 continue to worship. Amen. So help me pray for that place. It's a place that has purpose, that has vision, and if God doesn't want to take you there, he will. Amen. Thank you very much for your patience, beloved brothers. So bear with me when you see me with my cell phone. You can't imagine all the things that go through the pastor's head, but may God continue to help us and guide us, because it's not about us, it's about him. Amen. So with that brief introduction

1:02:05 I want to ask you to stand up and come with me, and it's good that you sat down and stood up so you don't fall asleep because we have a vigil here today. Let's go to the book of Proverbs, the book of the wise Solomon, chapter 3, verse 5 and 6. Proverbs, chapter 3, verse 5 and 6. And let me clarify something for you. None of my children are musicians because I was a musician. All of his heart has gone out to do it. So pray for them, this is not

1:02:52 easy. Amen. I know what a worship band is . The enemy took me out of the church at 16 because he knew there was a purpose in my life, but he didn't achieve what he tried to determine because look where I am for the glory of God. Proverbs chapter 3, verse 5 and 6. Listen to what the word of God says. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. Acknowledge him in all your ways, and he will direct your paths. Holy and good Father,

1:03:37 blessed and holy is your word. Thank you for her, Lord. Thank you because she gives us direction, because she reproves us and is the one with whom we can be transformed. Father, let them do the work for which you did not give them. Now I beg you, Lord, to use me as you wish, but mainly, Lord, with humility and simplicity of heart to preach boldly, but with authority, Lord. We pray believing in faith, Lord, because your word in this place has no impediment, Lord, to reach

1:04:25 hearts in the name of Christ Jesus. Amen and amen. You may take a seat, beloved brothers. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. Acknowledge them in all your ways, and he will direct your paths. We are going to be preaching on the subject. Everything changes. Everything changes when God comes first. With that amen we do it. With the amen of God who gave it to me and that amen we do it. Everything changes when God comes first.

1:05:15 Many people say, "Amen." Many people say they put God first. Faith is something that the word of God says comes by hearing. By hearing the word of God. Everyone, absolutely everyone, yearns for peace, success, direction, security, and a life with real purpose and results. But there is a spiritual truth that you and I cannot ignore. God works on reality.

1:06:03 Faith must not deny the facts. Faith must not deny the facts. And I want you to pay attention because in this introduction I want to take you to what God taught me. And if we look back, we see how the world has changed, society has changed, and even the church has changed. And that is a reality. And no matter how much faith we have, we cannot deny or change it by decree or declaration.

1:06:49 And here I want to make a clarification. This part has nothing to do with the message, but I want you to beware of this false theology. Today, an emotional, unbiblical theology has arisen that declares and decrees, attempting to force God to fulfill personal desires, as if he were a faithful heavenly servant. Say it, even if it's an imem. Beware of that false theology. Denying reality is not faith. It is a form of fantasy disguised as spirituality. And many times in the midst of this confusion

1:07:38 we forget the essential: putting God first. That philosophy has a selfish philosophy. Listen to this, beloved brother. I think all pastors, all of us, including those here, will agree with what one pastor once said. The best messages are born in the midst of crises. The best messages come out in the midst of crises. Sometimes

1:08:26 in this term they use of declaring or decreeing in this false theology, I want you to know that human beings have the capacity to decree. The human being can decree. The problem is that what you decree is not going to twist or bend God's arm. And you can declare and declare the word of God because paraphrasing you, what does it mean to decree? It is simply a longing and a desire of the heart of

1:09:14 man placed in man. trying to create something positive towards spiritual life, but not everything you declare or decree, God is agreeing with you and telling you, "So it shall be." No, it's not like that. God does not work or walk that way. and you will understand it later. We as believers must understand that we must live a genuine faith and a real faith planted on His feet, not a superficial faith declaring things about what

1:10:04 God has not said. And the only way you and I know what God has said is in the word of God. We believe that God speaks today as much as he did in the Old Testament as in the New, and he can speak audibly, but that is within God's sovereignty. Now, at this time I am going to ask you several questions that I want you to keep in your heart, but this is the most important of them all. What happens when God

1:10:50 is or is not first in your life? Or to be a little more direct, you have God in your first place. This is serious, beloved brothers, because God comes for a church without stain or wrinkle and a holy church. And the coming of Christ is ever closer. Sometimes we say that we have God first, but sometimes from the moment we open our eyes, what are we looking for?

1:11:36 What are we looking for? You answer that yourself, don't tell me. Go ahead and analyze it. What are you looking for from the moment you open your eyes or when you go to sleep? Today I want to share with you six ways in which we trust in Jehovah wholeheartedly and transform our lives, leading us to place God first and foremost in our thoughts and actions. So get on with me, the plane has left. First aspect, God is a God of character and order.

1:12:25 Oh, God is love. God is love. They have taken advantage of this to do whatever they want in the church. God is a God of character and order. Genesis 1-2. In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth, and the earth was formless and empty. And darkness was over the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. From the beginning, the Bible shows us a God who leaves nothing to chance. The first picture we see in the scriptures is chaos, disorder, emptiness and

1:13:12 darkness. But when the Spirit of God moves in chaos, it transforms, it transforms into cosmos. And that's what happens in your life and in my life when God comes first . Now, when we hear the word cosmos, many of us think of this, the universe in the sky, in all creation, as a scientific word. But this is not just a scientific word, at its root it means order.

1:13:57 Where there was chaos, God brings order. Where there was confusion, God brings clarity. where everything seemed formless. He creates with purpose. God establishes that he is a God of order. God created what he created, everything he created was with purpose and established cycles. He separates, he organizes, he gives direction and gives meaning to what has no meaning. I don't know if you have ever felt senseless about what you do. His character is reflected in the order

1:14:43 he has established. If you can look in the book of Genesis, I urge you to read it. I am only using these verses for reference. to bring you the teaching that God has given us. Listen to this. When I talk to you about resolutions, look at what it says in Second Corinthians, chapter 4, verse 6. For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, has shined in our hearts. How many say amen? For the light

1:15:29 of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. He came to dwell in you and me so that you and I may be light. That light that he created in the beginning he placed in you and me. How many understand it? When the light of Christ enters your heart, it also begins to order you spiritually, emotionally, and morally. But listen to this. When we ignore that order, three very dangerous things happen. There

1:16:15 may be more, but these were the ones God gave me. Observe. Human opinions replace God's truth. The material replaces the eternal and applying it to today, work and activity replace family and intimacy with God. I do n't know if you know that God's first design was not the church, it was the family. And the enemy loves it, he loves to harm and divide the family. That's why we have to be attentive to our children,

1:17:01 our mother, our father, your brother in Christ. Pray for your church, for the enemy never sleeps, trying to harm and divide the family. Now listen to this. I'm going to take Exodus chapter 32 as an example. It has 35 verses. I urge you to read it at home, but I'm just going to take four sample verses and add the story to it. In Exodus chapter 32, Moses goes before the Lord to establish things that God wants for

1:17:47 humanity. And you know, these people came out of Egypt, came out of captivity, could see the hand of God, could see the miracles of God and how powerful God was. But listen to this so you understand. verse 1 and 2 of chapter 32 of Exodus. Seeing that the people were trying to delay, delay, delay, they came to Aaron and made a proposal to Aaron

1:18:38 and said to Aaron, "Hey, we need you not to make gods. to go before us and to that tremendous leader that Moses left, he was not intimidated, he did not even reason or think, he said, "Bring me all the gold that you have, collect it." Now you and I understand because we are here, but try to put yourself in that time, in that place. And I want to tell you something, the laws of God are established in

1:19:23 your heart and mine. You cannot say, "Oh, I did not know." Exodus 25, time before among the 10 commandments. You shall not bow down to them, nor serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children. God is a God of love, but he is an all- consuming fire. God does not play with sin. God is just, but he has established his principles. Now, I want you to understand that the word zeal, for those who don't have much knowledge, zeal is not the zeal that

1:20:12 you and I know, it is a holy zeal that means faithfulness. Now go with me back to Exodus 32, verses 5 and 6. Aaron built an altar before the calf and said, "Tomorrow will be a feast to the Lord." And he offered sacrifice, ate, drank, and rejoiced. Oh, chichi. Instead of waiting on God, what did Aaron do? You're seeing it. You already know what he did.

1:20:57 The people invented a solution for their need. Look, beloved brother, the gospel has already been invented and it's here. The only thing God gives us is discernment of spirit to use tools that He provides through the Holy Spirit. But it's all here. Listen, they held a feast to the Lord and before idols. Not every religious activity

1:21:44 is truly spiritual. Be careful where you get into. Not every feast for God has His approval. What should he have done? Aaron? If I pass the microphone to each of you, you with your experience and knowledge. Well, surrender before God. Humble yourselves and wait for the answer from God's hand. But do you want me to tell you something? Today, many Christian leaders are doing the same thing. They follow the group, they allow themselves to be forced to do carnal things within the church, by fashion, or on social media,

1:22:33 and they don't seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Who are you listening to more? The pressure from your surroundings or the voice of God? Are you building altars with human gold or following the instructions of the Holy Spirit? In conclusion, when God is not first, the urgent replaces the eternal. The urgent replaces the... No, no, you have to get on with it quickly, pastor. Allow me to pray, brother.

1:23:19 No, people don't even want the pastor to pray. They want him to do it because they think that's the best idea. I said, even if it's just amen and smiled, that Christ loves you. It's not a "beloved voice." It's telling him what God told me, as he told me. He said it to me. God doesn't want a church, and excuse the expression, a prostitute. I'm not going to decorate the church to please the people outside. I'm going to bring glory to God. I'm going to do what God doesn't tell us to do in this place. Emotions replace God's truth,

1:24:05 and we end up celebrating things that God has never asked of us. That happens to those who don't have God first. But when God takes His place, everything falls into place. And in some things, I'm going to be repetitive; you have to stop and listen to Him. Because God is not a God of confusion, but a God of order, a God of light and direction. The second aspect is that when God is not first, confusion reigns. Sometimes we're doing the right thing, but the right thing isn't essential.

1:24:53 Luke, chapter 10, verse 38 to 42. Everyone knows that story. Martha and Mary invite Jesus to their home. These are the things this passage can reveal. Listen, Martha wasn't doing anything wrong. She was serving, she was helping, she was doing the right thing, but she was confused about her priorities. Because when she approaches the teacher and says, "Teacher, give Mary a hard time, she's not helping me." What was Jesus' response?

1:25:40 Martha, Martha, Martha, you're worried. Mary chose what was best. Once again, the problem isn't the activity, but the lack of focus on what's essential. We have to learn to choose what is best. Sometimes we are too tired and exhausted to get to church, but on Monday he gets up early to go to work. The one who provided it for him. Listen to what I'm telling you. Church is 4 hours. Don't make me calculate it for you so you won't be embarrassed later. 4 hours a week is church. How many hours are there in a

1:26:25 week? Church is 4 hours. 2 hours today and 2 hours on Thursday. And for those 2 hours you are late and you always have an excuse to come and listen to the word of God. Where you receive refreshment, where you receive manna from God and where you receive the energy to be able to endure this world as it goes. Don't feel bad, beloved, don't feel bad, but you wanted a service at 10 in the morning. You voted for a service at 10 in the morning and let me tell you, we're going for more and God has more and we're going to go somewhere else and we're going to start at 10 in the morning.

1:27:10 Amen. Amen. If you're going to give applause, give it loudly to the Lord. Martha chose the best, she chose to move, but she was troubled. She thought it best to attend. Mary chose to sit at the feet of Christ. This represents the difference between a life centered on God and a life centered on doing. There are many of us Christians who are doing many

1:27:56 things in the work, but we get distracted from the essential. And look, I can tell the group because I lived that and Corniel knows what I'm talking about. The praise groups loved it. We finished playing, doing choir outside. Word when the pastor had to come and you Tell me what you minister. The first thing you need to do is listen to the Word of God to receive guidance and direction in what you're doing. And I'm not saying this out of ignorance; I've experienced it; I've been part of it. But we want the privilege of God.

1:28:45 We want God to use us, but we don't honor God. Oh, this same thing is happening today. We want results, success, we want money, we want family, we want to move forward, and we want achievements, but we're tired of the things of God. But when God occupies the place that belongs to Him, your soul acquires meaning,

1:29:30 acquires balance, and has no losses. But when we don't do this before God, symptoms begin to emerge. I seemed like a doctor last night in this message. Immediately you don't have God in first place, symptoms of confusion begin to emerge. Spiritually, you don't know if it's God or your emotions. Emotionally, there is anxiety, frustration, despair, and an emptiness that nothing fills. Dear brother, this is happening

1:30:17 today. There are believers who leave the church with the same emptiness they arrived with. I don't want you to Continue like this. Don't try to fill that emptiness with vain things. All of this will go away. All of this will be destroyed, and the only thing that will remain is what you have inside for God. In practice, impulsive decisions and no peace. What do I want to tell you with this? Sometimes our children approach us with a

1:31:02 need, and instead of you saying to your son, Daddy, my son, let me pray and I'll answer you later. No, this spoiled boy who doesn't hear. And that's the believer. That's the believer. Imagine the unbeliever. You and I are here to bring light to this world. In the action of relationships, we sometimes have carnal relations. Our wounds begin to bear fruit, and that produces isolation.

1:31:52 I don't know if you are attentive to what God is telling you. When what is right takes the place of what is essential, what is right loses its value, and what is essential is God in everything. We cannot believe that we are doing the right thing without the guidance of the Holy Spirit, because we lose the essential. Let me tell you, many believers have not lost faith, but they have lost the order of their priorities, and that has many of them troubled like Martha, doing a lot but achieving little. Our soul needs direction,

1:32:39 and that direction only comes when Christ is in our hearts. God is first, not second or part of the heap. He understands. He loves me. These are some of the questions I want you to ask yourself today. What good things have taken the place of the essential in my life? What good things have taken the place of the essential in my life? I'm so busy serving God that I 've stopped listening to him.

1:33:27 I'm confused because I haven't prioritized his presence in my life. The only way you're going to continue knowing the character of God, taking control of everything in your life, is by putting him first and in intimacy. And you'll see why later on, when God isn't first, it doesn't matter how well-organized you are on the outside, because the disorder begins in the soul. Peace, focus, and wisdom come when we choose, like Mary, to be at the feet of Christ—to

1:34:18 be at the feet of Christ, as you and I are. doing here today. Thank you, Lord, because we choose the better part, because even though we are hungry, because even though we have responsibilities, we choose the better part. Third aspect, there is power in prioritizing the intimate and the invisible. Listen to what our Lord Jesus taught us. Matthew chapter 6 verse 6. But you, when you pray, go into your room. Many of us know this text. And when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in

1:35:04 secret will reward you openly. This is an extremely profound spiritual principle. Why? Because the world values success. The world values ​​achievements, appearances. And now followers, kid. If you don't have followers, you can be the best engineer in the world and design the best possible. But if you do n't have followers, but listen to this. The kingdom of God moves in the invisible, it moves in faith, in prayer, in obedience, and mainly in

1:35:50 intimacy with God. The invisible is what sustains the visible. Without secret prayer, there is no true fruit. Without intimacy With God, there is no spiritual authority. Without time alone with the Father, the Christian life becomes only appearance. In secret, the heart is cleansed, spiritual discernment and direction are received, firm roots are developed,

1:36:36 and convictions are strengthened. When you have a relationship with God, God does not move you from the place where He led you. Listen to this. God does not reward what you do, what you do to impress, but what you do when no one is watching. I 'll repeat it to you. God does not reward what you do, what you do to impress, but what you do when no one is watching. You may know how to speak

1:37:21 beautifully and in public, but if you don't speak to God in secret, your public speaking will be a performance. You can preach, you may know how to sing, serve, and teach, but if you don't prioritize the intimate, you will dry up inside. Forgive me, brother. I know that many people want motivational sermons that exalt their needs. But I believe there is a need to change the church today.

1:38:08 Do you know why many believers are frustrated, exhausted, and Without direction? Because they have exchanged the room for the stage and intimacy for activities. Oh, how many activities we love to do. But they call for prayer and fasting, but no one comes. U. Excuse me, here I go with a little more question. How much time are you spending in secret and intimacy? My fruit comes from my connection with Him and my efforts to be intimate.

1:38:57 He is going to reward what you seek in secret. The Word of God says so; the pastor is not telling you. I am seeking the Father's reward or the approval of the people. The invisible is what sustains you when the storm comes. When you prioritize God in the intimate, the public fruits come without you pursuing them. Because the Father who sees in secret will reward you in public. Aspect four.

1:39:47 When God takes control, everything aligns. And there I go to the first verse we read. Remember the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your sidewalks. What does this mean? It means that trusting God isn't passive, it's wisdom. And now you're going to join that church . Yes, because I believe. And truly, you still serve the Lord. Well, look at me, look at my family.

1:40:33 I give the glory, all the honor to God, because serving God has been the greatest privilege you or I can have. There's no price we can pay, there's nothing we can do to repay what he did for us. When you let go of control of your life, you 're not giving up out of weakness, you're surrendering out of trust. Trust God in the midst of your situation. The anxious soul wants to have control of

1:41:18 everything, but when God is first, you don't have to know everything, just trust in the one who knows everything. That's trust. That's trust. Trusting is recognizing that your prudence is limited. Trusting is accepting that your vision is partial. Many believers suffer from farsightedness. I knew they were going to stay. Many believers suffer from farsightedness.

1:42:04 Come from afar, but they don't see up close. No, but that in health, in the spiritual, is that they love to see the sin of others, but they don't look at their own. Oh, chichi, it doesn't want to be that way there. Ah, Lord, heal all farsightedness in this church and help us recognize when we have to change, because we have to learn to admit that you are our divine direction so that our paths don't go awry.

1:42:50 When you let go of control, God takes the wheel and when he drives, even if you don't understand the route, you will reach the destination he designed for you and me, which is going to be a better destination. How many believe this? What happens when he takes control? Number one, decisions become clearer. You no longer decide out of pressure or emotion, but out of spiritual conviction in him. Burdens are lightened. Matthew chapter 11 verse 28. Come to me,

1:43:38 all you who are burdened and weary, and I will give you rest. And that rest does not come from him taking the burden away from you, it's from him To endure in the midst of the process. Number three, haste becomes wisdom. Oh, how we love to run away in this time. We need more wisdom from God to know how to wait on Him. And number four, life flows with the rhythm of the kingdom. You no longer flow with your

1:44:24 rhythm when He occupies the first place. You can have many plans, many ideas, many strategies, but if God isn't the one directing, you'll wear yourself out and bear no fruit. You'll only bear fruit for the world, but for God, ñe ñeñe. Don't dress up, you're not going. Disorder isn't always a lack of effort, because many have strived to achieve things and today they are in a grave. It 's only a lack of trust in Him, in the One who can do it.

1:45:11 I'm making decisions based on God's wisdom or on my logic. I've surrendered all areas of my life or just some. God, this yes, but do n't get involved here. Here yes, but not in this. No, I'm like this because my family is like this. Brother, you have to change your character. Surrender your character to Christ and stop clinging to the past. You are a new creation in Christ Jesus. I trust God even when I don't understand Him. This was one of the most difficult parts

1:45:58 of our process. Because when God is restoring you, when you're in the process of where God wants to take you, what most hits you is confusion. And at one point, I told the Lord, standing here at this altar, I now understand why You put me through, everything You put me through . Sometimes our children are surprised and say, "Daddy, did you know that?" But God has been more than good. True transformation occurs when you let go of control of your life and

1:46:44 recognize God in everything. When God is at the center of your life, the paths are straightened. Everything that is crooked begins to make sense. Fifth aspect and we are almost at the last one. Peace comes from the right priority. There are people who want peace, but they don't have their priorities in order, which is to put God first. Philippians 4:7. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. In whom?

1:47:29 In whom? It is not in your knowledge, it is not in what I have learned, it is in Christ Jesus. What is this peace that God offers? It is not the absence of problems or difficulties, nor a simple passing feeling. It is a peace. deep, firm, supernatural that comes from having God first. When you make peace with God and that peace comes to dwell within you, those things happen. It does not depend on external success or human recognition. It doesn't come from

1:48:17 controlling the circumstance, but from trusting and giving control to Him. We love to control our children's lives. What silence. Let us learn to trust God more. Let us learn that what God has already placed in our children through us and the Holy Spirit will work. If your child has learned other things out there, he will learn them. You can't keep him in a bubble. He has decisions, but he also has a Holy Spirit that will pull his ear when God says so.

1:49:03 Pray that ear gets pulled. Don't change your prayer because God will do it in his time and as he wants. But treat it with love, treat it with understanding. He has the earring, leave him with the earring. God is going to take it away from you. What is in the world, leave it. Keep praying for him, keep interceding with him. Don't lose your intercession, because that peace, that peace that has come upon you, protects you in your heart and protects your mind in the midst of the storm, with your family, at work, wherever you are. I want you to reflect on this.

1:49:49 When we seek human approval, we can see the peace of God. When we live to win arguments or justify our positions, we can have peace. When we respond from pride or fear, we can have peace. Today is the day to put our priorities in order. You and God only know what God has told you in this word. The peace of God is not the absence of problems, it is the constant presence of God in the midst of them,

1:50:36 which does not depend on you, but on Him. When God is your priority, your response to difficulty changes, even if it isn't what you expect. You no longer react from anxiety or fear or anger, but from the firm conviction that he is in control. Where do I look for my peace? In circumstances or in God? I have to repeat it to you. Am I willing to let God guide my thoughts and emotions? What do I do when stress or anxiety

1:51:23 tries to steal my peace? It's that God put it in my heart. Seek the face of God. It's that I love him. Seek the face of God. God is not going to confirm things. The peace that surpasses all understanding is a fruit of putting God first. When he is at the center, the heart and mind are guarded and life flows with supernatural balance. And finally, as the group prepares,

1:52:09 the results of a life aligned with God produce internal and visible fruits. For we walk by faith and not by sight. Second Corinthians, chapter 5, verse 7. The Christian no longer walks like the carnal. Whatever you are going to do, God naturally has to come first, whatever it is. If it's the same thing he always does, give it to God. One of the things I do when I work on a car, I always give that car to the Lord .

1:52:55 Prioritizing God not only produces external fruit, but also a profound transformation from the inside out. This brings clarity to all decisions and strength in the face of adversity. It allows your relationships to be healthier and makes you sensitive to all things spiritual. You learn to wait and act at the right time, not your own. This internal transformation is the foundation of the visible results everyone seeks.

1:53:41 True success is when God is at the center of our lives and your results are the fruit of what he has dedicated to you. Living with God as a priority is not just a religion, it is a way of living with purpose, balance, peace, and direction. The Christian life is not a list of rules, but a set of worship rituals. Our life is about worship. You worship God with everything you do. It is walking by faith, not by sight. It

1:54:29 is a life where the invisible—faith, obedience, intimacy—generates visible fruits, and everything we talked about right now about the invisible is manifested there. Am I walking by faith or by what I see? My decisions reflect that God comes first. Reflect on this. My decisions reflect that God comes first. I'm seeing real fruit in my life and

1:55:17 relationships. When God takes first place, everything has to be transformed. Your life changes and reflects a new character, the character of Christ. While the piano will play whenever you want to start playing it, putting God first is not a pretty phrase, but for the Christian life it is a

1:56:02 daily decision. Listen to this, beloved brother. Putting God first is a daily decision, because as long as we're struggling with this, it 's going to be a daily decision. He puts needs in our hearts, even when there are none. Who is he? the one down there. And woe to the human being when he needs something. Hm. I can't live without it. And if I ask you, how did you come out of your mother's womb? What did you have

1:56:47 when you left? And who provided for you until today? Do you need it or do you want it? This is not about a rigid religion, but about a living, dynamic, and real relationship with God, who created you so that you could live a full life with him. Because when you have it in the first place, everything starts to align. Lean your face where you are and close your eyes.

1:57:35 Today you have the opportunity to return to a correct principle and create the right foundation before God to put Him first in everything again. Holy and good Father, blessed and holy. Your word is. You, Lord, know everything. You know every heart in this place, Lord. Father, if I or any of us here have removed you from any place,

1:58:23 make us recognize, Lord, because you must come first in all areas of our lives. Thank you because you are the one who speaks to your people, Lord. May your Holy Spirit do as he pleases in the name of Jesus Christ. Beloved brother, if this word has reached your heart, the altar is open. We want to pray with you. We want to pray for you while the praise sounds.

1:59:10 If you have any need, come before God so we can pray. You hear my prayer today. Even though I am a sinner, I come before you, my God, in worship. [Music] Let your temple be my heart. I give you everything I am. I

1:59:59 humble myself before you, my God, and my worship. I give up. I say to myself, I bow down before your holiness. Your presence fills this place. How beautiful it is to be able to seek your friendship!

2:00:48 I laughed. [Music] I surrender. I want to be a living sacrifice. I surrender everything at your feet. I surrender, I surrender to him. I want to be a living sacrifice with my life. I will give you honor.

2:01:38 I give up, I give up. Christ. Oh, [Music] holy. [Music] Living sacrifice. I want to be. I surrender everything

2:02:24 at your feet. I give up, I give up. [Music] Living sacrifice. I want to be, church, bow your head where you are and let us pray. God, almighty God, I recognize, Lord, that at times I have put other things before you. Today I ask for your forgiveness and I surrender my life and

2:03:13 my whole being to you, Lord. I want you to be my priority in everything, in my decisions, in my emotions, and in all our plans. Lord, guide us, direct our steps, align my heart with your will, Lord. May you be the first in my life from today and forever, Lord. and forever, Lord. In the name of Jesus Christ. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, pastor.

2:04:06 Alleluia. Raise your hand to heaven, church. Stand up, we're leaving this place, but never your presence. Lord, we give you all glory, all honor, all praise, Lord. Oh, God. Thank you for this word, Lord. Remove all distractions, O God, and help us to put you first in everything and for everyone, Lord Father. May that peace envelop us, Lord. That when we open our eyes, Lord, O God, we may understand that this is about you, not us, Lord. May you take control of our lives, Lord, of our children, of our children's children, throughout our generations, Father. May you write this word, Lord, O God, on the tablet of our hearts so that we

2:04:53 may put it into practice and day by day, Lord, may put you first. Oh Lord, we thank you, Lord, for this word. We bless our pastor, oh God, Pastor Angelo. Thank you, Lord, because he does not bring popular words, but words that confront us within, O God, to be transformed by you. Thank you, Lord, that he is obedient to you, O God. Thank you for your life. Thank you for what you are doing in this ministry, Lord, in this church. Thank you for every brother, Lord, that you
