How To Trust God: Mindset

[0:00] Welcome. Thank you for choosing to listen to another word-filled message by David Entry. Preaching is the means by which God manifests His word and nourishes our spirits. May the life of God enter into you and you as you listen to this message. Be blessed.

[0:18] Jeremiah 31, I think 70, 32, 70. Nothing is too difficult for thee. Someone should say, nothing is too difficult for my God. Nothing is too difficult for my God.

[0:32] Nothing is too hard for my God. Nothing is too hard for my God. What's the meaning of nothing? Nothing. It simply means nothing.

[0:46] Nothing is too hard. Nothing is too difficult. Nothing is too strong that God can deal with. You see, the problem is, Pastor, but if nothing is too hard for God, why is He not doing it?

[1:02] He's actually waiting for you. No, I've been waiting for Him for so long. Oh, no, He's waiting for you. No, I've waited for you. But He's waiting for you. I've been waiting. No, He's waiting for you. I've been waiting. He's waiting for you.

[1:12] Why do you say He's waiting for me? Because for me, I can't do anything again. I'm looking up to everything. No, He's waiting for you to trust Him. Some of us just want to use Him, not trust Him.

[1:24] It's very easy to have an attitude to use God, not to trust God. But this evening, this morning, this afternoon, depending on where you are listening from, where you are watching from, and what time you are listening.

[1:42] This day, if you can set your mind, if you can set your face and choose that come high water or low water, come rain or shine, come hell or good times, I have made up my mind.

[2:00] I'm going to stick to God. Then God will say, oh, wow, that's my son talking. As soon as you come into that state of mind, you make it very, very confusing for the devil.

[2:17] You strip the devil grounds to stand on to attack you because he doesn't have grounds. He doesn't have grounds. That is why Jesus said to them, fear not. He said to the Jairus, who was told that your servant is dead.

[2:32] Jesus said, fear not, only believe. Mark chapter 5, verse 36. Fear not, only believe. Fear not, don't be afraid, only believe. Don't be afraid, do not be afraid, only believe. Because if you can believe, if you can trust God, it takes care of everything.

[2:44] You're trusting God is what brings the power of God to manifestation in your life. You're trusting God. So God, I said it the other time, God has an obsession.

[2:56] And God's obsession is to be believed. It's to be trusted. God has an obsession. And his obsession is when you trust God, when you believe God, you commit God.

[3:13] Because when your faith says yes, God will not say no. When you trust God, you commit God. I like the way Bishop David Oedipo said it some time ago.

[3:28] He said, instead of committing sin, why don't you stop committing sins and commit God? Stop committing sins and commit God. Commit God.

[3:41] God. Commit him. How can I commit him? By trusting him. By trusting him. When you trust God, you engage his power.

[3:52] When you, when you, Jesus said, didn't I tell you if you believe you see the glory of God? When you trust God, you engage his manifestation. When you trust God, that is why the only way the just can live is by faith.

[4:06] You can't, you can't live by sight. You can't walk by sight. You can't live by sight. You can't live by circumstances. You can't base the major decisions. Oh, okay.

[4:16] For God, I'll shatter. How about you? You cannot base the decisions of your life, whether trivial or big. But the major decisions, all decisions, you can't base the decisions of your life on circumstances.

[4:31] On your feelings. You base the decisions of your life, the decisions about your life or decisions in your life, you base it on what God has said. Once you base it like I was teaching yesterday, once you base your decision on what the word of God says, that means there's somebody who's trusting God.

[4:49] There's somebody who's trusting God. There's somebody who's trusting God. But Jesus said, all things are possible to him who believeth.

[5:01] Mark chapter 11, verse, sorry, Mark chapter 9, I'm sorry. Mark chapter 9, verse 29, 23, sorry. Mark 9, 23. He said, all things are possible.

[5:13] If you can believe, you change the game. Your trust in God is a game changer in your circumstances.

[5:25] Your trust in God is a game changer in your family. Your trust in God is a game changer in your ministry. Your trust in God is a game changer in that case.

[5:37] Your trust in God is a game changer in the conundrum you found yourself in. Trust God! Trust God. So now, what is competing with your trust for God is fearful circumstances, credible circumstances, circumstances and situations that look formidable.

[6:00] They look very credible. It looks like this thing is for real. It's real. It's serious. It is vying for your confidence. That's why Paul said, we have no confidence in the flesh.

[6:13] I put no, Philippians chapter 3 verse 3, we put no confidence in the flesh. We are the ones who worship God in the spirit. We serve God in the spirit. He said we are the second ones who worship God in the spirit, rejoicing in Jesus Christ and have no confidence in the physical.

[6:30] Have no confidence in the flesh. Have no confidence in what is appearing. Things as they appear because something can be appearing one way, but tomorrow is a different story.

[6:41] It's a different story. I have a very strong conviction that heaven sent me tonight to deliver this special email, this special telegram, this special text message, this special direct message for somebody.

[7:05] Amen. What is direct message? It's not a circular. No, we are circulating around. You know, sometimes friends will send you something and they'll blast it to all their contacts. They'll blast the links to all their...

[7:17] No, this one is not blasting to all contacts. Even though everybody is listening to me, this message belongs to the person who knows God has sent me to you. Amen. God has sent a message to you.

[7:29] Amen. What's the point in fasting and not being able to trust God? What's the point?

[7:40] What's the point? What's the point in not being able to trust God and attempting to pray? What's the point?

[7:52] In attempting spiritual activity and not being able to hinge the strength of the activity on your trusting God?

[8:02] Lack of trust. Lack of trust invalidates every spiritual activity we engage in. You can give, but if there's no faith in your giving, it has been invalidated.

[8:16] Because he said, without faith. Hebrews chapter 11 verse 6. Without faith. Forget about it. Don't think of thinking, attempting to please God without faith.

[8:31] But without faith, he said it's impossible. He that comes to God must believe. That God is. And he is not just a God who doesn't act. He is a reward.

[8:41] He does something. God has the ability to do things. But he doesn't do it for everybody. He does it for certain people. So if you are coming, have this mindset that God will react to me favorably.

[8:55] Ha, ha, ha, ha. Hallelujah. God will react favorably to you. God will react favorably for your marriage. Amen. For your health. For your career. For your finances. For your job.

[9:06] For your ministry. Amen. Amen. God will react favorably to you. Amen. Amen. You must believe that he is a rewarder. He is. And he is a rewarder.

[9:18] He is not, you know, there. He says that, I think in Isaiah 40. He says there are ghosts, are images. In fact, he says that somewhere in Isaiah and then another place in, I think, Psalms or so.

[9:33] He said, you go to the farm or the woods, chop down a timber, and then you give it to a craftsman and cows it into something.

[9:45] And you bring it to your house. And then you bow down and say, this is my God. He said, how foolish. He said, this is my God. What you made yourself, you made by your hands.

[9:55] You are worshiping what you made by your hands. You are putting your trust in what your hands have made. Oh, come on. Don't put your trust in your job, in your certificate, in your looks.

[10:10] Some of us, all there is to you is looks. Looks. It does not take looks to secure marital destiny.

[10:21] It takes trust for the believer. It takes trust to secure marital destiny. Sometimes, Pastor, sometimes I have an, I find it interesting that people choose, they are not giver so.

[10:39] But they are using their look and believing God for marital their looks, my friend. Stop that. Much of the time, you are giving and you are lack of complaining about your engagement in church activities or services.

[10:55] Now, when I say church service, I don't mean church service, worship service. I mean your engagement involved. You are serving in church. Most of the time, you are complaining in your service.

[11:09] You are remembering. Memory, memory. It says, in fact, I will be going to that in a few days to come in our teaching on 1 Peter 4. It says that let us all practice hospitality.

[11:24] 1 Peter 4 from verse 9 somewhere there. Let us practice hospitality and be generous to all people and do it without remembering. Grambling.

[11:36] It says, be hospitable to one another without grumbling. No. To be hospitable in those days, the homes, the easy is not to have like hotels and believers.

[11:48] So sometimes, let's say, Pastor Timothy has traveled. He is coming to preach in your town and you are hosting him for about two months. So Paul was hosted in Lydia's house in Acts chapter 16 and stuff like that.

[11:59] So it was a normal custom that people, but you know, when someone lives with you for a week, sometimes you begin to grumble. I don't even know why. This person is eating all the food from the fridge. And when he eats, he doesn't take his time to.

[12:11] And then especially the ones that I'm quite worried is when he doesn't wash their books. Like your mother has been telling you. When he doesn't wash their books.

[12:22] Because I had, years ago, I had a story of some, two friends. They are very good friends. And there was farming, kind of farming. This is some remote area somewhere. Years ago, there was farming and they used to practice bush, the hunting.

[12:37] So even you get the animals to catch. And one day, a guy managed to go to the farm and was able to catch bush meat. And he came home. He lives, he's a bachelor.

[12:47] He lives alone. He came and he went through an ordeal of preparing it. And preparing some sumptuous meal. The little he had. And he was so happy.

[13:01] But he lives, the village, the next neighbor lives very far from you. So he prepared it. He was about to eat. Just when the food was about to be ready, his very close friend came in to visit.

[13:13] You know, those places, you don't have to call before you go and visit. I'm coming. No, no, no, no, no. Everybody's available. You're just walking. So his friend walked in. Can I tell you the story? You want to hear the story?

[13:24] Yes, yes, yes. His friend walked in. And when the friend walked in, you know, the custom was when you have something good or you are eating and someone comes, it's just catch us to share your food.

[13:36] Like we tell the children, share it, share it. Yeah. In a lot of customs, when you are eating, in fact, where I grew up in, my mother's background, from where my mom comes from and my dad, when you have food and you have food you're about to eat, it is very discourage not to invite people around you, even if they have just finished eating.

[13:59] It's just sometimes you don't expect them to eat. It's discourage that you are invited. Oh, can you join me in my meal? They won't join you. But it's just if you don't do that, it's very rude.

[14:11] And so this guy, his friend came and he said, come and join me. Let's eat. And his friend said, oh, I've been hungry for so long. God really loves me.

[14:22] And he sat down. But you know, some of you will know what I'm talking about. There are some people who are fast eaters and others are slow eaters. Fast eaters can finish the food like, you know, the way chainsaw cuts.

[14:34] And others will eat the food like the way saw. You are using saw to cut the wood. Yeah. So this, unfortunately for the guy, his friend who came to join him is a chainsaw eater, very fast eater.

[14:49] And the guy was eating. So by the time this guy could have about three goals, his friend has had seven. And I think he was having too much of this.

[15:02] Unfortunately, on top of it, this friend will not keep quiet. You know, some people, they like talking when they are eating. He won't keep quiet. And he's talking. And he's asking questions. And he was asking. And so when did you catch this meat?

[15:14] This bush meat? Oh, I see. Do you have some left? And so would you give your sister some who live there? And ask question upon question. And the guy was now out of his depth answering these questions.

[15:25] And the guy was also eating more of the food. So he asked one question. In fact, how did you get this meat? Did you shoot it or it was caught in a trap?

[15:36] The guy was so tired. He looked at him. He said a building broke on him. It's a house. A house broke and killed him. He was too frustrated.

[15:49] He had to give him a very cheeky answer just in case his friend would be upset and walk away. He couldn't be bothered at all. He ate more of the food. So those days, people come and travelers, they come to your home and live with you.

[16:04] I know most of you who live in United Kingdom, particularly London, or a lot of other places in United Kingdom, where rooms are quite small. You know, sometimes there's not enough space.

[16:19] And you have to host some other people who is coming to live in your house for three weeks. And let's say church is doing convention. So different people have come.

[16:29] And you have three people, especially some women don't like that at all. They don't like sharing. Hey, if you marry one like that and you like people coming to your house and you marry like that, every day her face is like, sometimes she will tell you, but you know that this is trouble, trouble.

[16:47] So, Bible says that, be hospitable without grumbling, memory, because if you are going to do it, then do it and shut up.

[17:02] Do it and shut up. Now, there are a lot of people whose commitments in the house of God, even though they are still engaged, it is with a lot of memory and grumbling and complaining.

[17:19] So, you are complaining as you are doing God's work. You are complaining as, God, last month, two months ago, from this year, God, from this year, January, I've given my tithe.

[17:32] February, I've given my tithe. March, I've given. Now, April is here. I'm about to pray this tithe again. God, this is your last chance. You have to do something. You have to do something.

[17:43] This thing is a hard thing I'm doing. God, it's because you have been told. Listen, keep that. Keep it. Keep that. Keep that tithing. Every offering.

[17:55] See it. You feel like everybody must stop and clap for you because of what you have done. That is not a reflection of genuine trust. So, you are believing God for a blessing and a breakthrough, but your attitude towards his work and your attitude towards him on the surface looks like it's intact.

[18:23] But below, beneath the surface, it is porous. It is empty. It is not substantial. It doesn't have substance.

[18:34] But tonight, I see somebody moving from the place of low trust to a place of solid trust in God.

[18:45] Solid trust in God. Solid trust in God. Amen. God. Solid trust in God. And your testimony will speak for itself. Amen. I am the God of all flesh.

[18:59] Is there anything too hard for me? It's a question. Is there anything too hard for me? Is there anything?

[19:11] I am the God of all flesh. That's why don't be afraid of the flesh. Don't put confidence in the flesh. Put confidence in God. Behold, I am the God.

[19:26] Somebody is about to hear good news. Somebody is about to hear good news. Man, I received it. Somebody is about to hear good news. Behold, I am the God of all flesh.

[19:45] God, is there anything too hard for me? Is there anything too hard for me? Our Lord God, thou hast made the heavens and the earth by thy great power.

[19:56] Nothing is too difficult for you. Verse 17. Nothing is too difficult for you. Nothing is too difficult for you.

[20:08] He said, if you believe, all things are possible to him who believes. In other words, as you trust God, you open up yourself to, it's like unrestricted options.

[20:26] Unlimited, if you want to know unlimited, unlimited is in God when you trust him. Unlimited data for spiritual download when you trust him.

[20:38] Yeah. Unlimited. Unlimited. Unlimited. Fast speed. Internet. Unlimited. In the spirit.

[20:50] Spiritual access. Unlimited. So then, doesn't it make sense why the enemy will show you so many different things in the physical to undermine your trust in God?

[21:04] Unlimited. Unlimited. So in Job chapter 2, verse 10, verse 9, particularly, Job chapter 2, verse 9, it says that, then his wife, talking about this man who is suffering, Job, his wife said to him, do you still hold fast to your dignity?

[21:23] Ah! Are you still continuing trust in God? Do you still, look, you have lost everything. There's nothing to you again. You've lost everything. Are you still doing this church, church, church thing?

[21:36] There are some people who said that this, generally the fasting they didn't have, even 21 days, they didn't do anything. And then we had encounter, encounter first for 40 days.

[21:47] Pastor, there's no miracle, no testimony. And then we had a match, another, what do you call it, fasting.

[21:58] And then April has come. Five days, even the 21 days, plus seven, seven, and encounter first, he didn't do anything in these five days.

[22:09] I ain't doing it. I ain't doing it. If God would do it, that's okay, because he hasn't actually done it. And my friend, see, you see, trusting God is where, when you keep doing what you know you are doing, and you focus, watch this, you are expecting a certain result and reward, and it doesn't show up.

[22:29] You keep doing it anyway. Now, how does that happen? If you, until we move our focus from our expectation, our resources, our results, if we can move, until we move our focus from the results and move it on God, we will always have problems in our journey of trust.

[22:49] Because the results, sometimes the results you are believing, you are expecting, is not the results you go get. Sometimes the time frame of your expectation for the results is not the time frame for God's program.

[23:04] It's not in God's timeline. God's timeline might be different from your timeline. Timeline. That's why when I said this evening, I had to refresh or rephrase it or say it again and say that wherever you are, because now it's morning somewhere.

[23:29] It's midnight somewhere. It's midday somewhere. So where I am is evening here. It doesn't mean it's evening everywhere.

[23:41] There was a time. I heard the story of some terrorists in Palestine who planned to go and blow up a busload of people.

[23:53] And they set, it was a time bomb. So they set it in Palestine, set everything, and then they sent it over to the one who is supposed to go on the bus.

[24:04] That person is on the other side of the border in Israel. So when the person got it, he went to go and, at the time, he went with the time because, so they said, now, okay, let me even use Ghana.

[24:21] Now, it's, this evening, it's 8 p.m. in United Kingdom, but it's 7 p.m. in Ghana. Okay. So if, on the other hand, or let me use Nigeria and Ghana, that's what is, they are close enough.

[24:36] So it's 8 p.m. in Nigeria, it's 7 p.m. in Ghana. The bomb was manufactured and planned in Ghana. That is going to go off. It should go off at, okay, it was manufactured in Nigeria.

[24:53] Yeah. That it should go off at 8 in Ghana. So when it was, you know, Nigeria, 8 p.m. in Nigeria, it's 7 p.m. in Ghana. And this guy, it was given to him at 3 p.m. in Nigeria.

[25:07] So it was manufactured when it was 7 p.m. in Ghana. He didn't know that it was 8 p.m. in Nigeria. So he was still waiting for it to be 8 p.m. in Ghana for the bomb to go.

[25:20] But the bomb was on time, ahead of time, an hour ahead. Oh, my goodness. It was an hour ahead. Yeah, it usually happened. It was an hour ahead. And so the bomb detonated and killed the bomber and just three people.

[25:35] It would have killed about 50 or 60 people. But thank God for timing. Thank God for timing. Thank God for timing.

[25:47] Thank God. So don't fret. Don't fret. Today it might be somebody's time. Your all is coming. Just take your eye. Take your eye off the resource and fix your eye on God.

[26:05] I see your story changing. Amen. I see your story changing. Amen. God, I believe. I believe. I believe. Yesterday I spoke about how to, what some of the signs, when you trust God, what you do.

[26:20] And I said, when you trust God, you obey his word. Number two, when you trust God, what you do. Isaiah chapter 26, verse 3.

[26:33] Isaiah chapter 26, verse 3. Thank you, Jesus. It said, you will keep in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you.

[26:45] Why is his mind stayed on you? Because he trusts in you. So, when you trust God, your mind stays on him. In other words, an unyielding focus on God.

[27:03] You make up your mind. Bible says in Daniel chapter 1, verse 8, that Daniel and his friends purposed in their hearts. It was a plan. It wasn't circumstantial.

[27:15] It was intentional. It was purposed. They purposed in their hearts that, but Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's delicacies, nor with the wine which he drank.

[27:35] Therefore, he requested of the chief of the Enoch that he might not defile himself. What does that mean? There were Jewish boys who, when Nebuchadnezzar took over Israel, told his army commander to pick all the boys, the bright boys, the very bright and intelligent ones, and those who are raised in the palace.

[28:00] Bring them. It says that bring some of the children of Israel and some of the king's descendants and some of the nobles. Bring them because those ones have potential.

[28:11] So they brought them into captivity, into the king's territory so that they would be trained to be useful to the king. So they are boys.

[28:22] They are young. So they started training them early. That means that they will have access to the food, the palace food, special food, special drink.

[28:33] And those food and those drinks were so special, it had an impact on your thinking, your brains, your development. Every aspect of your development was affected by what you eat, just for your information.

[28:48] All right. Just for your information. What's your size? Someone has put us over to it and said, Pastor, I don't know. I don't even eat.

[28:59] The more I fast, the more I lose weight. No, please. There is no weight gain that has not got the blessing of food behind it. It takes the blessing of food to gain weight.

[29:11] Well, so they gave them this food. But Daniel said, this food from the palace or in the palace has been dedicated to idols.

[29:26] And they've chanted on it. And it's not for me. So Daniel purposely determined. Watch this. That was privilege. Some of us, you get an opportunity, a privilege.

[29:37] You said this is big, big opportunity. So you betray your Christian commitment just for a job. You betray your Christian commitment just for a shoe.

[29:49] A shoe. High, the one they wear. The high ones. Yeah. What's it called? There's a certain name for it. The one. The high boots.

[30:00] I know one sister whose ex-boyfriend came and met her after church. She said, oh, I got some boots for you. And that's all. He came back through the boots. He came back through boots.

[30:16] So, you know, people, you betray your trust, your confidence in God through a little lucrative offer that is given to us.

[30:27] Lucrative offer. They offer you extra hours. Extra hours. And you know it's going to affect your commitment in the things of God. But because of the money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money.

[30:43] I want money, money, money, money. And the other time, somebody was telling me that he used to make a mistake. He was trying to save to buy a house. So he stopped giving in church and giving.

[30:53] You are saving to buy a house and you add God's money into nothing. You add God's money into it.

[31:06] Shabby. Shabby. Shabby. But you see, those who put confidence in their flesh, they do it without any problem.

[31:23] And then later on, they say, God, why? Why haven't you helped me? God, why? I told you God said, I'm waiting for you. It's God who is waiting for us to trust him fully.

[31:34] You will keep in perfect peace whose mind is dead on you. Let me show you a scripture. In Isaiah chapter 40 from verse somewhere 26. Let me read that scripture.

[31:45] I think you should be a person to somebody. It says that, I think, let me read from verse 27.

[32:02] Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel? My way is hid from the Lord, and my judgment is passed over from my God. In other words, God is not going to do anything about it.

[32:13] My time is past. He's not going to help me. God is not doing anything about my situation. He said, why are you saying that, O my son, O my daughter? A believer. Why are you saying that?

[32:25] He said, why do you say that, O Jacob? Why do you say that, O Jacob, and speak Israel? My way is hid from...

[32:35] Don't think God doesn't know what is going on. God is aware of everything that is going on, and he hasn't forgotten about you. It's just that maybe your timing is different from his timing.

[32:46] When you look at your clock, what your time is saying is different from his program, the timeline. It's God for you in heaven. You understand what I'm saying?

[32:57] Yeah. So, verse 28. Has thou not known... This is very interesting. Why are you saying that? Has thou not known? How's thou...

[33:08] Give me New King James, please. Let me read from you. Have you not known? Have you not heard that the everlasting God, the God, the creator of the heavens, the creator of the ends of the earth, neither faints nor is weary.

[33:24] His understanding is unsearchable. To comprehend God, to be able to figure God out. You can't figure out. There's never a day you can be able to figure God out.

[33:35] His understanding is unsearchable. But he says that he is the creator of the ends of the earth. That means the one who created the heavens and the earth. He created it. He created it.

[33:47] That is why we should be able to trust him. Our Lord God has made the heavens and the earth by our stretcher. Nothing is too difficult for you. That's the argument he's raising here. If God created the heavens and the earth.

[33:58] If God has built a house for you. If God has built a house for you. Is it a sink he can't build in your kitchen for you? If he's built a whole house for you.

[34:11] Is it a sink he can't build in your house for you? That's the argument there. So, don't think God is not able.

[34:22] And God will not do it. Just trust him all the way to the end. Trust him all the way to the end. Trust him all.

[34:33] And how do I do that? I'll come to that. But let me finish reading. There's some good stuff here. Verse 29. Oh, I like that. Somebody say thank you, Jesus.

[34:45] Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. Say it like someone with fire. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus.

[34:58] Thank you, Jesus. Okay, so. It says that he gives power to their faint. Do you feel faint, especially at this fast tonight? Some of you.

[35:09] You're eating so much. Now, in fact, I was telling somebody. Was it yesterday? Or was it? I think Sunday, I've forgotten when. I think either Sunday I said, I'm really not looking forward to this.

[35:22] Physically speaking, stomach-wise. I'm not looking forward to this fasting at all. Some of you were not happy at all. In fact, when you heard it was five days, you almost fell off.

[35:36] Because you're too. That was it. It was. Yesterday, after the service, I was telling somebody, this fasting, I didn't enjoy it at all.

[35:49] It was here. If you don't feel it, it doesn't hit you. You haven't hit the nerve. You don't feel it.

[35:59] And today you felt faint. You are not faint. It's just your mind. How come sometimes 12, I feel like coming here.

[36:12] Sometimes. Can you see me? I think I have to go down like this. Sometimes. Sometimes. Give me this camera. Let me try. Can you see me now?

[36:25] Yes. I have to go back. I have to go back. Let me come back. Can you see me properly? I want to talk. Yes, we can see you properly. Yes, yes, yes. Sometimes. Sometimes.

[36:37] In the morning. By midday you are not eating anything. How come this fasting. Midday you are already fainting. 9.30 you say. I'm fainting.

[36:49] Midday you are not eating. And you are as strong as a horse. A race horse. A race horse. What do you mean?

[37:00] It's just playing on your mind. It's playing on your mind. No, no, no. I know I'm not talking about some of you. Ask my wife. She will tell you yesterday in the morning. By 9.20 I started already feeling hungry.

[37:14] I don't normally eat in the morning. I only eat after 3 p.m. Yesterday as soon as the fasting started. 9.30 I was hungry.

[37:28] Satan would like to play on your mind. God said. He gives us strength to the faith. God gives strength to the faith.

[37:39] He gives strength to. He gives power. Kabadabababashade. Alek. Kabadhanda. Receive power. Receive power.

[37:51] Receive power. Amen. Amen. He gave power to the faith. And to them that have no might. He increased. He will boost.

[38:01] He will boost. God is a booster. He will boost. You don't need that Red Bull. God is more powerful than Red Bull. He said.

[38:12] He boosts those. He boosts the strength of those. Who have no might. And them that have. Them that have no might. He boosts.

[38:23] He increased strength. He created the heavens and the earth. Then he says that. They that wait upon the Lord. Shall renew their strength. But.

[38:34] He said that. But they that wait upon the Lord. Shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings as eagles. When they are expecting your end. They will see another beginning. Wow.

[38:45] I see somebody mounting up. Amen. The creator of the heavens and the earth. And so you don't have to be afraid. You don't have to worry. And don't you be afraid.

[38:57] Joy comes in the morning. Sorrows they don't last always. There is a friend in Jesus. Who will wipe your tears away. And if your heart is broken. Just lift up your hands and say.

[39:08] I know that I can. I can make it. Now watch this. So. Quickly. To be able to trust God. Number one. I said trusting God means obedience to God.

[39:18] Number two. Trusting God means. Making up your mind. That you are in this for the long haul. You are not changing your mind. You need. Watch this. We need a certain stubbornness of mind.

[39:31] When it comes to working with God. You must make up your mind. That doesn't matter what the enemy throws at you. You have made up. You won't change your compromise. You are looking so much for marriage.

[39:43] Now. You have started doing things. That you know. Who undermine your commitment to God. Why are you even considering receiving. Why did you give him your number?

[39:54] Why did you give him your number? You know this is not your. Why did you give him your number? Why did you give it to him? Now you are so under pressure.

[40:05] Without your auntie. And your cousins who are getting married. And things like that. And they are moving in. They are moving in. They are moving in. Yesterday I was sharing with somebody. I didn't realize that cohabitation.

[40:16] Has been addressed in the Bible. Yes. Cohabitation. So those of you listening to me. Who are cohabiting. Today I've caught you. Get up and go back home.

[40:28] Sorry. Talking from that house. Because you want to keep your testimony clean. Hey. Kabad. Liar. Magad. Dagadabaya. Hey. Hey.

[40:40] See. You want me to show you? It's there. You want me to. Yeah. Okay. Romans 13.13. Cohabitation is there. Hey. Romans 13.13. Hey. And I like it's in the territory of Romans.

[40:51] Romans. Romans. Romans 13. Let us walk. Let us walk. As in the day. Not in rivalry. Sorry.

[41:01] Not in revelries. In drunkenness. In lewdness. In lust. Not in strife and envy. Now. Give me the King James.

[41:12] There is a word there that you need to see. You see. After drunkenness. That word. Do you know what it means? Do you know what a chamber is? Do you know what a chamber is? You go and type chambering.

[41:24] Look for it in the dictionary. Chambering. The original word translated chambering is vacation. It's vacation.

[41:41] It's cohabitation. Sharing a bed. Sharing a bed. It's like don't do that. Don't do that.

[41:52] Oh. Oh. I missed the night bus. So call Uber. Call Uber. Call Uber. So I decided to sleep.

[42:03] We were in the separate rooms. That's chambering. You're in the same chamber. You're in the same chamber. Hey. Hey. Hey.

[42:13] Hey. Hey. Listen. It's a man of God. Who will be good to see? It's a bit. Hey. Hey. My brother. I used this. In the modern day generation. Chambering is not okay.

[42:25] Chambering. You can't marry her. You already have a baby with her. And you are living together. You drop the baby at nursery. And then she picks her up. And I say, oh, my missus. She's not your missus.

[42:35] Excuse me. She's not your missus. She's not your missus. Why am I? Are we not talking about fast? She's not your missus. She's not your missus. She's your girlfriend.

[42:48] Girlfriend who has money to give you a baby. Wow. Hey. Hey. My missus. Please. Please. Please. Don't deceive yourself.

[42:58] She's not her missus. Sister. You are not her missus. You are not. Do you know what it means to be a missus? You are a baby.

[43:12] Let's get serious. Let's get serious. So. Don't compromise and become a baby. Make up your mind that I'm trusting God to the end.

[43:23] Even if I remain single to the end of my life, I've achieved obedience. That is when you can say you are trusting God. And see if God will not show up. See if God will not show up.

[43:34] You are putting all kinds of pictures of you on social media. So you can show your volumptuous curves. So just in case, someone will be interested.

[43:45] They will only come for meat. For food. They are not coming to settle. And then they tell you, oh. As for men, they are useless.

[43:56] It's your useless type of girl who gets those useless type of men. Sorry, baby. I preach. This pastor is really annoying me.

[44:10] I'm very happy you are annoying. So you can move out of what Satan is using against your destiny. Sometimes it's good to be annoyed. Out of your frustration. To be annoyed.

[44:21] Because you have settled for something that is hurting you. Trust God. And move on. Trust God. Make up your mind. That I will die trusting God.

[44:35] Amen. In Daniel chapter 3. Verse 18. They said, oh king. Let it be known to you. That we will not bow. We will not bow. Oh king.

[44:47] We do not serve. But if not. Let's go to verse 17. The verse before. If this is the case. Our God who we serve.

[44:58] Is able to deliver. Is that not what you have been saying? You said it last year. They are telling you. You said the same thing last year. You still don't have a job. You said it last year. This year is already four months.

[45:09] You don't have a job. And you keep still staying in those church things. Don't mind them. Don't mind them. They might be good people. But they are blind. When it comes to the purposes of God. Don't mind them.

[45:21] He says that. We want it to be known to you. Our God who we serve. Is able to deliver us. From the. If that is the case.

[45:32] Our God who we serve. Is able to deliver us. From the burning. Fiery fairness. And. He will deliver us. From your hand. Oh king. You are not the final authority.

[45:43] That is what they are trying to tell the king. Your situation is not the final authority. Your condition. Yeah. It has been happening to people from your background. But it is not the final authority.

[45:54] There is the one who made the heavens and the earth. Whom you trust. He will show up. Now look at the next verse. Verse 18. He said our God. They said our God will deliver us. But let's put the caveat there.

[46:04] But if not. Let it be known to you. We are not serving him because of his deliverance. We have made up our mind that we will serve him into death. So if it is death. Then bring it on.

[46:14] We trust him enough. So he said. Let it be known to you. Oh king. That we do not serve your God. Sorry. But if not. Let it be known to you.

[46:25] That we do not serve your God. Nor will worship the golden image which you have set up. The king was very infuriated. Who is these guys? Who are these guys who are able to talk to me like this?

[46:37] He was full of fury. Ha! Ha! They were. Listen. What the pastor said. The objective is not to annoy you. But it might annoy you.

[46:52] Because the way you are with your bear watching this thing. Now he has spoiled the whole thing. It might annoy you. And by unfortunately you can't switch it off. Because it might look funny. By your heart you are very upset.

[47:05] In your heart. Hey. One day. All these kind of preachers. All these kind of preachers. They don't have love. They don't have love. Love will tell you the truth. That's why most of the time your mom will tell you go and bath.

[47:17] Bath. And shave. Your mom will. Others will. Others will not tell you. A lot of friends will not tell you that you have bad breath.

[47:30] But your mom will say. Let's go to the dentist. I'll pay for the dentist. Let's go. Let's go to the dentist. It takes true love. It takes true love to tell you the emperor is naked.

[47:45] Somebody who doesn't have an ulterior motive. Ulterior agenda. To use you. Or to benefit from you. Will be willing to tell you. As it is.

[47:56] So to help you. Paul said we are helpers of your destiny. We are helpers of your destiny. We are ready to be spent. To spend. To spend. And be spent for you.

[48:06] The church. That is what qualifies me to stand here. And speak God's word to you. Ready to spend. And be spent. For you. We don't do this only when it's convenient.

[48:18] Times. There are times it's so inconvenient. But we do it joyfully. To the glory of Jesus. So. They said. No.

[48:29] We won't bow. We will not bow. We will not bow. And then. The king was very angry. What they said. Actually infuriated the king. They didn't intend to infuriate him.

[48:39] Or upset him. Or disrespect him. But they were just trying to tell him. The basic facts. That's the conditions of our life. We have made up our mind. And forget it. We will not bow. So the king heated it.

[48:50] And threw them in. The king later on saw. See. If you want to see a fantastic result. Learn to have an unyielding trust in God. An unyielding trust. Trust.

[49:01] Will generate unprecedented results. Now. The king said. Hey. We threw three men in the fire. Bound. Oh. I see.

[49:11] I see. A fourth man with them. They are walking loose. They are walking in the fire. They are loose. We threw them in bound. But they are loose. They are loose. And I see a fourth man. And the fourth man with them.

[49:23] It's like the son of man. He didn't know. But as they trusted God. It created a room for Christ amongst them. Your trust for God. Is what gives God permission.

[49:33] To act on your behalf. Ah. Your trust in God. Is what gives him the permission. To act on your behalf. The solicitor cannot act on your behalf. Until you sign.

[49:45] You have to say. Put the paper down. Please sign it. Sign it. Sign it. That you have accepted attempts and conditions. So we can start acting on your behalf. It might be very critical. They still need paper. To be signed.

[49:55] Before they act. Your situation might be critical. God needs you. To sign. That God. I trust you. You are believing in God. Is appending your signature to his word. That I trust you.

[50:07] Once you trust him. You have authorized him to work on your behalf. I see heaven intervening on your behalf. This week. This week. This week. I see heaven intervening on your behalf. In the mighty name.

[50:18] This year. Within a month. You will see the hand of God. In a very angry. In a very strange. In a very unusual way. Favorable way. In the name of Jesus. Amen. You shout amen.

[50:29] Amen. Amen. So. Now look at what the book. Have you noticed that they said we will not bow. That's the mindset. But is that trust?

[50:40] But what did you say? It's because trust. Even the unbeliever king knew that I was trusting God. Look at verse 28. Look at verse 28. Daniel chapter 3 verse 28.

[50:51] Nebuchadnezzar spoke. Nebuchadnezzar spoke. Saying. Blessed be the God of Shadrach. Meshach. And Abed. Abed. Nego. No negro.

[51:01] It's Nego. Abed. Nego. Who sends his angel. And delivered his servants. Ah. Ah. What type of servants? What type of servants?

[51:13] What type of servants did God have to send a whole angel to come and deliver? The servants who trusted in him. And they have frustrated the king's word.

[51:24] And yielded their bodies. That they should not serve. No worship any God. Except their own God. But their trust must be tested.

[51:35] Your trust must be proven. If it hasn't been proven. It's not solid. It's not solid. What have you gone through? Trust in God. What have you suffered?

[51:46] Trust in God. Then we can say you really believe God. What have you gone through? What have you gone through? Some of us only believe God when it's fair weather.

[51:58] When everything looks cool. They trusted in God. So when you trust in God. You set your mind. In effect.

[52:08] You don't change. Isaiah chapter 50 verse 7. He said. I have set my face like a flint. I have set my face.

[52:19] Isaiah chapter 50 verse 7. For the Lord. God will help me. Therefore I will not be disgraced. Therefore I have set my face like a flint.

[52:31] And I know that I will not be ashamed. Ah. Put this thing. Put this scripture somewhere. You can always see it. Yeah. Put it somewhere. You can always see it.

[52:44] These are some of the things. When God is ministering to you. If you get a chance. Share it. Put it on your Facebook. It's there. Put it. Somewhere. Put it in your house.

[52:55] Somewhere. Put it. Put it. Put it. This one is more powerful than lyrics of some songs. Even though it can be a Christian song.

[53:06] This one. This one has life. This one has life. He said. Listen. He said. For the Lord will help me. Because he will help me.

[53:17] I will not be disgraced. Hey. Sister. Sister. Do you trust God? Do you trust God? Brother. Do you trust God? Do you trust God?

[53:28] Do you trust God? With your children? With your marriage? With your family? With your business? With your career? In ministry?

[53:39] Do you trust God enough to do his work well? Trying to build a safety debt for your future.

[53:50] At the expense of your commitment to what you know. God has called you to do. It's risky. It's risky. Do you trust God? Do you trust God?

[54:03] Do you trust God? I wish I could speak French and say. Traste. Traste Dieu. Traste Dieu.

[54:16] Please. It's my old coin. You keep in perfect peace. Whose mind stayed on him. Because he tried. I didn't even finish the job bit. Job's wife said.

[54:27] Curse him. Curse him and die. Curse God and die. I used to trust in him. I used to believe in him. I used to hold him on to your integrity. Curse him and die. And then Job said in verse 10.

[54:38] You speak like one of the foolish women. Yeah. But he said to her. You speak as one of the foolish women speaks. That means that there are quite a few of them. You speak as one of the foolish women.

[55:04] Shall I indeed accept good from God? And shall we not accept. Did you see that? Shall we indeed accept good from God? And shall we not accept adversity?

[55:15] Challenges. That's what it means. In all this. Job did not sin with his lips. In other words. He didn't break his stance with God. Be careful when you are under pressure.

[55:27] What you say. It will be held against you one day. What Jesus said in Matthew chapter 12 verse 36. By your words you shall be judged.

[55:40] Every idle word any man speaks. All right. He says that I say unto every idle word men may speak. They will give account of it in the day of judgment.

[55:53] Then I think verse 34 or 36 says that. For by your words you shall be justified. And by your words you will be condemned. Your words. Your words.

[56:04] Oh. I didn't mean it. But it's still. The police said we are arresting you. You reserve the right not to say anything. Because whatever you say shall be used against you. Held against you.

[56:15] At court. Sister. You are coming under pressure. Brother. You are coming under pressure. Mind you. Be careful what you say. Against God.

[56:25] Against his work. Against his servants. Be careful. Against his people. Be careful. As for me. These church people have had enough of them. And never never again. Be careful.

[56:36] Be careful. Watch out. Be careful. Pastor. Don't say. As for church members. They are useless. No church member is trustworthy. Be careful. Be careful.

[56:48] Because three people have disappointed you. Don't think everybody is like that. As for people. It has no need to do good to anybody. Because when you do good to them. No one. No.

[56:58] No. They actually hurt you more. Be careful. All men are trash. Sister. Be careful. Be careful. Be careful. Before you fill your life with trash. And your sons also are trashified.

[57:14] Be careful what you are saying. Trust God. And keep. Set your face like a flint. What does it mean? Nothing changes. A flint is a hard rock.

[57:25] You hit it. And the hammer will bounce back. You hit it. Bam. Bam. You hurt yourself. So set your face. My face is like a flint. They hit me. I'm not changing my. I'm not changing my direction.

[57:36] That's what it means to trust God. That trust that is flaky. Flaky trust is not trust. Inconstant trust is not trust. It's not authentic trust.

[57:50] Let your trust determine what gets the best of you. And your life will be filled with the best results. I see that happening for somebody.

[58:02] Amen. I said I see that happening for somebody. Amen. Thank you for listening to this message by David Entry. To hear more from David Entry, follow him on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and LinkedIn.
