You're struggling with finances because you don't know God's mind.

True.

You're struggling with your family because you don't know God's mind.

True.

You're struggling with your career because you don't know God's mind. You're struggling with where you should be because you don't know God's mind. All your issues, all my issues stem down to one thing. We don't know God's mind because if we know God's mind, then success becomes guaranteed.

That's so good. That's so good.

The anointing is not the revelation of God's mind. That's why you can be anointed and broke. You can be anointed and lose your family.

My God.

You can be anointed and be under demonic attack.

Yes.

You can be anointed and have struggles back to back to back simply because the anointed does not know God's mind.

You can be anointed and be rejected of God. I feel like I'm not communicating with somebody. You see, many of you your destinies are being buried. Your futures are being buried because you don't know God's direction. You keep reverting to places that God did not call you to. I feel like I'm not talking to somebody. If you If I'm talking to you, just type you're talking to me, sir.

You're talking to me, sir.

The suffering of mankind is simple. My people perish because of lack of knowledge. Your suffering is not because you don't pray, even though prayer is important. Remember I told you, when you begin to know God's mind, actually probably 80 or 90% of your requests will be eliminated.

Yes. Jesus says, "Don't worry about what you're going to eat. Don't worry about what you're going to wear. Your father in heaven knows that you need these things. And he will provide for you these things that you need. Right? Then

you have people who have a whole meeting. Supernatural provision. God already says he's going to provide for you. That's a useless meeting. God knows your needs.

Supernatural provision is coming. Provision will not be a prayer request if you know God's mind.

Don't worry about what you're going to eat. Don't worry about what you're going to wear. Don't worry about where you will lay your head. This is what the Gentiles worry about. But don't you know your father in heaven already knows that you need these things? Notice it comes back to the mind.

So you sit there and you're you're you're wondering you know, whatever God will I need I need divine provision. I need this. I need this. You Father, you are Jehovah Jireh. You're That was for Moses, not for you.

You are under the covenant of sonship.

You are under sonship.

If you are under sonship your prayer is completely different from somebody who is not in sonship.

My son doesn't ask me for permission to eat. My children don't ask me that and they don't ask my wife that.

They go to the menu.

[snorts]

Not is there food to eat is I want to eat something else.

Can we eat this? Can we eat that? Can we have this? Can we have that? Their question is not is there food? Their question is what kind of food can we have? So they are not worried about being hungry. They are worried about choice of food.

Somebody just type I am under sonship.

I can't hear you.

I'm under sonship.

hear you.

I am under sonship.

I can't hear you.

I am under sonship.

Now I will tell you this. Prayer was not meant to be the path to knowing God's mind.

I know somebody may not like that but it's the truth.

I'll say it one more time. Prayer was not what God intended for you to know his mind. God intended that prayer will be a place of communion.

Where you have an exchange with him.

But knowing of his mind was not meant to be through prayer even though through prayer we can discover God's mind.

Because somebody will say how can you say that? No, you could discover God's mind through prayer. But how many times did you pray and know what God is saying? Or God is thinking.

Most of us, the measure we use for knowing God's mind is we ask God for something and then we pray, we wait to see if it comes to pass, then we know it was God's will. We don't even examine the source.

As long as it comes to pass, then it is God communicating and speaking with me. And the reality is if that is the measure then why how do you know what God wants you to do on a daily basis? God's plans are not revealed because you read the Bible. God's plans are not revealed because you pray. God's plans are only revealed if you have a strong communion with the Holy Spirit. If you can hear the voice of the Holy Spirit. If you can be joined to the Holy Spirit.

If you can walk in such a profound intimacy with the Holy Spirit.

Because every time God wants to use somebody he does not use them independent of the Holy Spirit.

In today's churches people choose people based on skill.

You are very good at managing money, so we'll make you a financial officer. You are very good at speaking, so we are going to put you on on on on what is it called? greeters and all that. You are very good You are very fair, so we'll put you in in benevolence distribution. The church is not an organization, even though the church should be run as an organization.

But the church, for lack of a better words, of for lack of a better word, is a spiritual organization.

That's good. That's good.

It's not just an organization.

The apostles are told the food is not being shared fairly among the people.

We need you guys to step in. The apostles said, "Guys, we are too busy preaching the gospel. You can't take us out of preaching the gospel to come and distribute food. But here is what we need to do. Gather young men full of the Holy Spirit.

Oh my god. That's good. That's good.

Thank you for letting cook.

Full of the Holy Spirit.

I'll say it one more time. Full of the Holy Spirit.

Meaning what is in them was tested.

To me, you just speaking in tongues doesn't tell me you're full of the Holy Spirit. I have to see you under pressure to really understand if the spirit of God is in you or the spirit of God is not in you.

You know, one of the reasons why I love fighting, I like combat sport. I love contact full contact sport, which is fighting to me. You know, and and I love it because it tells you what is inside of you. You can pretend all you want. Mike Tyson said it best. Every everybody has a as a plan until they get what? Punched.

Everybody has a plan until they get punched.

That's crazy. Because you can think you are all this and when you get hit we will know if you will shondalabababa. Or if you're going to go and run and and run and hide. Somebody just type in the comments, Lord reveal your mind.
