How To Live Beyond A Crisis | Dr. Myles Munroe

thank you for joining us for another power-packed message provided by monroe global incorporated and monroe global comm we transform followers into leaders and leaders into agents of change we hope that this message is a blessing to you as you advance your life and discover your purpose now let's go into the message what do you do when you cannot control what's happening let me define what a crisis is for you again a crisis is an event or a circumstance or a situation that impacts and influences your life over which you have no control or you are not the cause of or responsible for in other words a crisis is something that you have no control over this is why it's very difficult for even governments to talk to their own citizens because if they could have controlled what was happening they would have more confidence in speaking to their people the problem with a crisis is you don't control anything so everyone is a victim of the circumstance now I know that most of us may not consider how important it is when they talk about the two major car companies in the United States having to be bailed out or requesting assistance from the US government but please take that seriously it is also estimated that over five million jobs in the United States are directly or indirectly related to the automotive industry in other words those of you in the Bahamas or Jamaica could appreciate that because if your economy is built significantly percentage built on a specific industry then any change in that industry negatively will affect a ripple effect in your economy case in point in the Bahamas it is believed that one out of every three jobs or even more are related to tourism in the Bahamas the second-largest employer in our country next to the government is a resort if something was to happen to our tourist product our country would collapse that's what America is facing now with the automotive industry this is why the CEOs of the automotive Giants sitting before Congress are sitting there without shame they have some clout what they're saying is we need help we can't control the circumstances we are victims of this global crisis and the same way you helped the banks from collapsing you save the insurance companies from imploding see where you are extending your hands to other private corporations we need you to give us at least thirty four billion dollars or we will file bankruptcy and there's a potential of over five million people losing their jobs just like that which means that the Bahamas and Jamaica and all the other countries who depend on the US tourist dollar will be in trouble now I listen very carefully because to me this is a historic event going on never in the history of the United States has that country been bought to a place where it is having to buy out the private sector I say bailout but I think it's a buyout buyout means that the government is literally having to take ownership of private enterprise which is the foundation of capitalism listen carefully please now I thought that this was the first time this has happened in history now remember this statement it's not what happens to you that matters it's what you do about what happens to you that matters so what's happening now in the world every country France Germany England Spain Belgium Venezuela Chile Peru Mexico Canada the United States everybody is trying to respond to this crisis you know of the meetings they had last three weeks ago the g7 group met then the g12 ment and everybody's trying to figure out how do we respond to the crisis well here's something to remember write this down doing nothing is not an option you cannot in a crisis do nothing it will destroy you that's why the governments are working so hard now the United States which is doing the same that England did England moved before the United States Canada actually moved before India and before England rather but with what France did France bought out their banks Britain bought out their banks so they actually owned the banks in the country the major banks the government owned the banks in the United States the government not only have ownership in the banks but also in the insurance companies and now the major industries like the car companies are saying do something with us bias I'll give us some money let us oh you we want to be we want to survive but we need you to us a lot of money 34 billion dollars now the money they asking for is government money but let me remind you all that governments have no money all government money is the people's money hmm that's where your taxes go when you pay customs duties when you pay ni B when you pay your income tax or your federal tax of state tax in the US or wherever you are from that is what they call government money it's the people's money so you get the companies in the country who hire the people hmm telling the people to loan me your money to keep you employed this is a deep scenario what you're about to read is shocking when there's a crisis the word for crisis in the bible is the word famine everybody say famine say it again in an agricultural society famine is crisis in a capitalist society economic downturn is crisis same thing now I want you to read with me from the book of Genesis can you everyone turn there please you won't believe it you're gonna read I'm gonna read this very quickly because I want to show you that Barack Obama need to go and study Joseph I mean this seriously my name is mr. president sir if you're watching this program anywhere anywhere in hotels anywhere you stay in sir please go and study Genesis and read the strategy of Joseph I'm about to read to you exactly what Congress is doing right now in the United States in the Bible Genesis chapter 47 verse 13 now as you read this every time you see something that's happening now just say all right ready go there was no food mm-hmm mm-hmm in the whole region because the famine was severe mm-hmm good both Egypt and Canaan wasted away because of the famine Joseph collected all the money that was to be found in the country and in Canaan in payment for grain they were buying now when you read that it is the government taking the money Joseph is the government he is the prime minister of Egypt at the time why did he take the money so the people could have food it gets worse they had to pay for the grain they were buying and he bought it to Pharaoh's Palace whether he bring it now every time you see Pharaoh just say government when the money of the people of Egypt and Canaan was gone and his all the money gone anybody feel that yet they broke all Egypt came to Joseph and said give us food who they go to what is Joseph the government so we got handouts we get the social department we get welfare departments we get food stamps in other words a crisis drives people to the government to feed them there it is they said give us food why should we die before your eyes our money is used up I have no employment but you need to feed me government read the next statement it says in verse 16 then bring your livestock Joseph says who's speaking the government now everybody say stock sounds familiar stocks and bonds that's where the word came from years ago people kept their wealth in their livestock today we keep it in Wall Street Stocks same stocks he says watch not Joe Grant from their money to their stocks give me your assets I will sell you food in exchange for your livestock since your money is gone so they bought their livestock to Joseph and he gave them food in exchange for their horses their sheep their goats their cabin their donkeys and he bought them through that year with food in exchange for all of their livestock people start in other way this is foreclosure if you are a cattleman in Egypt you own cattle for you to eat Joe says I gotta foreclose on your cattle people losing their houses here their houses their cattle it's their is their livestock he says if you want to eat then your economy has to collapse privately but read the next verse this one is so up-to-date it says in verse 18 and when that year was over they came to him again the following year and said we cannot hide from our Lord the fact that since our money is gone and our livestock belongs to you the government there is nothing left for our Lord except our bodies and our land in other words crisis drives you to the point where you even begin to give up your personal private ownership to the government that's exactly what they're doing in Congress now you see the CEO sitting there begging the government listen whatever you gotta do just help us verse 19 why should we perish before your eyes we and our land as well by us and our land in exchange for food they're selling now the last thing they have just to eat food by us and our land for food and we with our land will be in bondage to the government you know the congressman two of them acts that the CEOs of GM and Chrysler they said okay if we gave you this money what are you gonna give us they're talking to a private company if we give you this money how you gonna pay this back in other words we are gonna own this company if we give you thirty four billion dollars we're gonna take over your private assets the government will own the car company there's one word they are afraid to use all during this time it's the word socialism everybody is thinking it but they can't say it national nationalizing the private enterprise is socialistic ideology and they are asking the government not a governor a check over the banks they got the banks they got the mortgage companies now be moving into automotive and the argument is if they give this group of companies money then the others don't line up to do you guys how serious is this Joseph had the same problem the fam was so bad that they had to literally begin to give the assets of the government just for them to survive look at the last part of this he says let us give us to you so we can at least eat and live and not die and that the land may not become desolate in other words the factory is just rot last section verse 47 chapter separation rather was 20 so Joseph brought what all the land in Egypt for who the government that means if Erica say government he bought all the land for who there's nothing new that's happening right now there's nothing new Under the Sun here is a farming crisis and the government is taking over the private farms because the farms cannot survive and so they are turning over all their assets to the government look at the next statement the Egyptians one and all sold their fields because the farmer was too severe for them the land became the land became the land became the government's land when the government united states bailed out AIG they bought up all the houses that foreclosed so this is why President Obama could say to the banks and insurance companies now I don't want sure to let no-one else lose their homes now what give them authority to say that because the government so much power now in the bank and in the insurance industry they can tell him don't let that woman lose a house the government says so so you reorganize that mortgage for the woman in other words the government is instructing the private bank which is no longer private because the government now has so many shares in it the governor doing exactly what Joseph did 6,000 years ago Joe is saying look we can't control everything so you can eat that's where we had folks this is amazing but that was 22 however he did not buy the line of who the priests but this way I get to show okay this is where I get the show now this way you shouting sugar come on right here y'all wonder why Sheldon he said look the crisis will eat up anybody who ain't priests no I don't know but you but hahahaha God says you shall be a holy nation a lawyer you're gonna say to yourself Araya everybody waits if you a priest come on the only group of people or get ready to run the only group of people that survived the crisis was those who were clothed in a royal robe y'all better shout Amen I don't know about you but I'm a priest oh what a blessing you better take that verse underline it put it up on your mirror in the morning and say that's me that's me remind god that's me they could take everybody else off they can't that's mine they could take their line they can't touch mine why I am your priest shall they many of you a priest [Music] [Applause] the only group that he did not buy the man from was the priest why because they received don't have me see your nation yet listen in Furman the priests receive can i prophesy in the midst of this crisis your business is gonna grow say y'all ain't got the conviction yet I'm a prosperous man because of my mouth say it I will grow in the midst of our men I heard that testimony this morning the young lady who they released into opportunity and she used it to start our own business set up straight of you a priest just illustrates history tell neighbor I am a dignified Kingdom priests so a thousand have followed my left ten thousand pounds would be lost at my right but it won't come them my property give him praise and thank him brother to put a fat this this you gotta believe this because they received an allotment in other words God gonna give you daily bread in the midst of starvation tell you neighbor don't worry the government got you covered seeing Joseph was as interest an interesting guy Joseph was a government leader in two countries at the same time he was a leader in Egypt but also a leader in the kingdom of God now remember who's running the country Joseph so the person who makes this law is actually show and just look we can't touch the priests oh Jesus let me just say this right now please take comfort in this if you experience a release into opportunity then that is the will of God because they can't touch you unless they got permission all right I'm gonna say that no more you're gonna catch that one take me buddy can't touch me without permission from my other government you know Jesus thoroughfare on my pilot Heathrow planet palaces do you know I could kill you Jesus look you could have no authority over me except it was given to you by my father who's in heaven tell your neighbor I am protected not by my local government but my original government give God a praise right there hallelujah he did not buy the land of the priest because they received a regular allotment from Pharaoh and had food enough oh Jesus y'all better receive this man in the middle of farming the priest has food enough a miniature Antigua doesn't matter you have enough to kids or 22 he says I'm gonna give you enough I am an announcement to make very important announcement stop worrying thank you very much as a simple amount that's too simple stop worrying the last process that is why they did not sell their land in other words they were under a different law now here's the last part of this very important look at verse 23 she also said to the people now that I have bought you and your land today for the government here is seed for you so you can plant the ground in other words the government now is controlling what happens in the private industry are you reading this in the Bible this is good stuff look at this year he said verse 24 but when the crop comes up Joseph says give a fifth to the government let away dividends come into the government now a fifth belongs to the government the other 4/5 you may keep a seed for the fields and food for yourselves and your children and your household you have saved our lives they said sounds like GM sounds like AIG come on talk to me now sorry the bank's tiny kid government 700 billion dollars they already spent 300 billion and they hang it over to three more trying to start to do it what something will you save our lives you know god is good to the care of it let me tell you why it's good because America already got the cold so the pneumonia it hit us yet so we got time to fix ourselves see some of your walk might say Eddie you say that it happened to you you better get yourself and listen to the Word of God I've been giving you last five weeks this thing or hit us ask the folks in this room who been laid off in the hotels you better get under the kingdom of God sister there's no survival except the kingdom of God you got to put on your priesthood fast if you are not born again in the kingdom of God today I promise you you are going to have your land sold they're gonna own you Joseph says now that I have everything you got to give me what I asked for the government is controlling what happens in the banks in America now look at verse 24 but when the crop comes up a fifth belongs to the government and then for fiscal onto you and your children your household you have saved us they said may we find favor in the eyes of our Lord we will be in bondage we will be in bondage we will be in bondage to who the government that is socialism hate that word don't we I thought it would be good to read that because you think that this is something new it's as old as Egypt now what do you do about it how do you survive it Joseph said this way so Joseph established it as a law very important verse he established what a law now the government is making the law here's the law concerning all the private assets of the company of the country and that is still enforced today what is the law a fifth of the produce belongs to the government it was only the land of the priests that did not become government property tell your neighbor I am protected from government control because I am under heavens control see I told you the only safe place right now for the next five years is going to be the kingdom of heaven the game of heaven is a higher law let's read Matthew what God says to you 6 verse 25 therefore I tell you do not worry about your life what you will eat which you will drink or your body which you will wear is not life more important than food and the body more important than clothing look at the birds of the air they do not sow or reap or store away in barns and yet your heavenly Father feeds them now here's a statement to remember are you not more valuable than birds ladies and gentlemen this is what I want to leave you with today your value protects you Jesus listen to the words of Jesus crisis look do not worry about food and clothes and car and house and mortgage and rent he said if you do that is gonna kill you oOnly pages worried he says you better get seek first the kingdom he says and in the kingdom your value protects you if he feeds the birds how much more will he feed you you are more valuable than birds so do not worry by saying I can add this and I can add this to my life the last statement is very important the last statement there is telling you you cannot control a lot of things in life so get under the kingdom you cannot decide how tall you're going to grow I'm here to be on your head what's gonna happen in your life he said so you better get under the kingdom of God worry is the most useless activity in human life worry changes nothing except your blood pressure some of you are beginning to worry this word comes to you today no money left the planet however the only people that will attract wealth in farming is priests [Applause] Corsicana more Abaza ever I say allotment my sister you don't understand my way hey by say allotment it says the priests can have a lot month from the government of God not a lot my meds your name on the envelope your man get that no matter where the money is there's some mature there's an allotment that share alone that's show no because they don't touch that that's gone on and I can get this to John over hammer high water he will get to you what belongs to you matter of fact let me answer said I expect my allotment you know sometimes we expected from different people to try to get from banks and friends God said look relax for at least 24 hours give me 24 hours you do nothing just relax and believe me and let me give you a package to you I confess today and prophesy your package is on the way to you in the name of Jesus if you accept that prophecy if your hands would say let it be as it is spoken there are people who will travel along across the world to bring your allotment oh man I feel so lonely some time of year see you think your salary was your allotment that was a tip [Applause] we take some of you business people there is an allotment because you are a priest for your business that means their customers no one can take someone receive this there are clients in the middle of this of the crisis who will come to look you up and say look I want you to do my business anybody want just confess that right now you got a unit you can get acclaim these things you know ya say it shall be unto me as it is written you are more valuable so stop worrying he says look at verse 30 Matthew 6 out loud read if that come on out read if that is how God clothes the grass of the field which is here today and gone tomorrow he says thrown into the fire will he not much more he said why don't you just believe believing his hard work you know because you got to fight all them thoughts that you dealin with you got to fight that bill on the table you could see it it says there's an allotment for you he said but God Tuesday morning 9:00 o'clock I got Gaza shut up and just have faith believe you know you cannibal you could actually believe a phone call into your life let me tell you something you are one phone call away from debt free living you understand God can do it Tom but he's wanting to see are you gonna trust the government Pharaoh or are you gonna trust heaven I got a prophecy right now lift your hand up receive it right now this week your package is going to arrive in the name of Jesus Christ i prophesy it expect it believe it and receive it now thank him now it's on the way in the name of Jesus lift your voice and thank him right now believe he says o ye of little faith I don't preach no good teaching this is the Word of God to you this is instruction you gotta receive it and thank him right now by faith he is bringing your allotment you know on some people's allotment is fifty dollars as all they need some is five hundred some is fifty thousand some is five million whatever your lot point is it's coming to you in the name of Jesus I received mine right now I received my appraisal I received mine I'm gonna see if I receive it Lord I believe I want you to leave this building skipping and dancing in your car just singing it's done it's done it's done it's done it's on the way it's done my allotment valuable now I want to show you this verse what do you do to live beyond the crisis let's read this verse from the book of Ecclesiastes whoo this is so good I call this employment versus deployment Solomon says sow your seed in the morning that means go to work if you get a job but in the evening let not your hands be idle that means don't only have one source of income I talking to her mom your mom your listener he says look don't puttin your eggs in one basket this is in the Bible ladies and gentlemen if your job is your life you better never lose your job why you lose your life ladies and gentlemen God is giving us good advice he says go to work in the morning if you got a job and do good and then when you get home keep on working let me tell you why read the last part of it he says because you do not know which one of them will prosper you Wow in other words God doesn't want you to live of a salary he wants you to develop the spirit of industry when you are also doing some other things just in case the salary dries up the morning part they control Hey but the evening part you can draw so they can fire you from the morning part but they gave more time to work on the evening but some of y'all they got the evening part that's why you're scared to lose the morning part and when you lose the morning fire you got a long evening [Applause] y'all getting this revelation be creative something think about new things and do with your gift this is good advice and what I tell people this verse also means no matter how much revelation you get from God this morning in any teaching or last week would be before don't resign from your job stay on your job but you start working on your dream after you get off that means don't be stupid goodbye butterball of a safe trip we love you bye bat we play golf next time do not be stupid and leave a secure job now they let you go that's opportunity but if you jump boat that's stupidity work on your your job and then work on your work hmm he says both may prosper you look at the last part imagine getting rich boobies now what eventually happens is the one that you work on usually in the evening will outpace eventually the one you work on in the morning so you got to work both that means one of them is your job the other one is your work let me just give you this write this down you got to think beyond your job say it with me see if you do that then you ain't afraid of crises think beyond your job number two there's no future in any job so don't put your trust in that job you need something to be on the job you got to live beyond the crisis here's my third statement write this down please the future is in the one who holds the job where's the future in the person who holds the job it's not in the job they could take the job back so find something bigger than the job and it's in you and I put it to you therefore that you got to create your own business in your job a job is someone paying you to develop yourself a job is someone paying you to use your gifts and refine your gifts to become better a job is someone paying you to become more experienced in your own gift a job is opportunity for someone to pay you to prepare you for your work don't hate jobs use them don't hate jobs benefit from them now some of us like me my job and my work at one because I found my work and if you are in your work you have no job you are in a work but if your job is not your work then you use your job to pay you for your work imagine being paid to use other people's resources to develop yourself what a blessing and so we need to know different between a job and work write this down quickly never confuse your job with your work and number two your job is what you were trained to do but your work is what you were born to do your job is your career that's true but your work is your assignment in life your job is your skill that's why they can get rid of you but your work is your gift they can never get rid of your gift your job you can retire from but you can never retire from your gift your work I put it to you that your job prepares you for your work I had many jobs in my life and each one of those jobs prepared me for what I'm doing right now I was a teacher in the classroom for over seven years I taught junior high school in high school and man what a training to communicate and boy did I learn how to deal with different people and manage a group of people and how to handle fights and strife and pressure that was good training just like Moses he spent 40 years with sheep before God gave him people he had to handle a group how to lead a pal how to find water and food for them while he was being trained to handle three million people your job is important but it's not permanent so do something after five o'clock and I was thinking if that a young lady my daughter who started that company this morning if she had started that company five years ago after five o'clock he majid it wouldn't no matter if she didn't have a job what I'm saying to you is I'm giving you assignment right now I want you to go home today and spend the evening thinking asking God for his ideas show me what I can do after five o'clock remember doing nothing is not an option if a person controls any part of your time they can always release you from it get it look at me say it again see from eight from 9 to 5 they control your life from five to midnight you control that part so they control from nine to five they can always fire you from the time so use the time you control to prepare you for the time when they take their time back this crisis work is there for your most powerful pursuit you don't want a job you won't work jobs are what temporary but work is permanent you can be fired from your job that's why it's temporary but your work you cannot be fired from and therefore your work protects you from your job said of it may work protects you from your job you have to remember that you want to find out what is my work in life this level of teaching doesn't happen in every church and this spirit I'm talking about doesn't happen in the Caribbean hardly ever and that is the spirit of deployment not employment it's important to be employed so that you can learn some things you can't learn without that relationship but it's important also deploy yourself so that you can become protected from incased take away their job you know let me tell you what they're gonna use from now on in the next five months and yet is very very often in York in your country this word retooling write that down retooling or re-engineering of your skills now what they mean by that is if you was a a banker and the bank collapse you gotta learn something else yeah but listen you better learn to do plumbing over B know something i underst you broke you gotta learn to have new skills now listen here's what I'm saying that y'all remember Moses Moses was a dignified elegant well-mannered prince and Moses first of all had to go work for his father-in-law he can't be too bad in that father know then he had to learn from sitting on a throne to spending all day with smelly sheep now that's a skills transformation he no longer held a sceptre in his hand as a prince he held a piece of wood as a staff can you be so diverse in your skills that are in case you shift you can just shift to something else to walk around it but I I am I'm gonna count I'm gonna count oh yeah but you broke learn to paint houses for a while I can't get my hands dirty I'm an accountant you better do that man so he could eat Moses went from Prince to Shepherd but the shepherding was only temporary to train him for becoming a deliverer why did Moses work for his father-in-law because he married the man daughter and cheerin came and you know how father-in-law's go you got my daughter you give her all I'm sharing I don't look to me to help you buddy I can give you a job yeah but I was a princess over robic shut up and wait with the Sheep but you know I got experience at being princess yeah I experienced but you don't wake you right now your program Moses gonna learn to take care of sheep skills diversification am I getting through yeah that's why they say during crisis is a good time to be re-educated in many different things so go on the internet and learn some things that you always wanted to learn do some some studies start expanding your capacity to be diverse in skills your gift they cannot take from you but your skills may become irrelevant every time hear this word look at me redundant redundant means yeah you skillful but we don't need your skills no more that's what that means so I'm going to become so diverse they say well you can't do this no more but at least you get five Martine you can put you this other department see you don't leave the company they just shift you somewhere else it happened to you yeah because yeah exactly you see if you got diverse skills you make yourself indispensable given some last minute pastor miles are you an apostle a prophet evangelist pastor or teacher I tell Am I I say I am all of them see this my nine o'clock tonight I am catching a flight from Nassau to London direct tonight tomorrow I'm landing in Nigeria tomorrow night take a whole two days to get there and I'm going straight into to training in a bank the second largest bank in Nigeria I get a train all their managers all the supervisors and they pay any planning we need to train them watch this now if I tell them eyes Reverend Bishop apostle miles [Applause] that's why you'll find no title nor nothing I do why because when you put yourself in one skill you become useless when they don't need that no more come on crap right there friends alone so y'all don't want me no Bishop don't you call me Bishop now some folks need that they like that I'm getting trapped gotta be diverse look at me yeah you guys have Angelus you might get trapped see I figured out years ago if I say I'm an evangelist how many gondor's even a mantis cause okay so right now I don't need a man to see if these people need teaching so say you found us go go go I need a teacher okay you say teacher to teach teacher yeah he said but right now what I need is an apostle to break some new ground you teach it how you can use you see so you keep throwing you away cause you don't need you but I like Jesus I like Paul Paul say I become Jesus no I have voices he's a catch if I could change I could become whatever I need to become to reach everybody hit somebody say diversify yourself I say hit him again say diversify your skills so you'll always be needed come on say it give got a handful revelation see you need to become so skillful in many ways they can use you write this down please your work is your seed this is why your work can never be taken from you your seat is your assignment now you leave this place today ask God to show you not your career but your gift ask God to show you not your job but your assignment because your assignment never leaves and your assignment is always necessary in the world you the world always needs your gift and that's a difference you know in our next session which I forgot to give you in January because next two weeks is Christmas I'm gonna show you how to find your gift and by the way get that book or they're in charge that's what the book is all about see everyone possesses seed and let's see it is your greatness that's why God never told Adam to be sifu he told to be what fruitful because food come out of seed gars already assuming you got seed what do you want to see now is what you get to come forth so inside of you is a harvest waiting for the world to eat and that means that your seed is the tremendous Big Ideas God keep put in your heart touching your gift and I challenge you today to make yourself available to God all we can say God show me my work after 5:00 p.m. what am I supposed to be involved what can I be doing and then those of you who've been released into opportunity you got all day to work on it you got plenty time now see ya and that might be God's saying okay it's time to start some folks don't fly tell God kick him out of the nest now listen don't jump off the nest now stay in the nest but some people God removes the nest so they have to jump and fly maximize this time don't be depressed and complaining get busy and plan supposed to come you know depressed and worry don't worry think dream a lady came to me last week she says my fact is this is a gentleman he said dr. Monroe I heard you teaching I bake cakes I'm gonna give you one of my cakes I tell him yes man give me the cake he said you too Freddie you smart always give it free phrase yeah I wonder what you got in your hand you always got more than you can see so I challenge you to Nate to give you a see to the world now the world is bankrupt they don't know what to do they need gifts they don't need jobs they looking for answers they're not looking for skill your gift is an answer that the guard knew the world would need so ask God to give you those ideas I'm so proud of some of you in this place out i watch you follow your ideas I mean it's just so beautiful to see what you're gonna do think more creatively now find some new ways to use your skill and take your gift and multiply the new ways and ask some fresh finds and fresh ways to do it but I talking to one of the men in the church he said pastor mouse after that teaching two weeks ago he says my development got an idea I said well he said man I was thinking you know and he told me this I said my goodness man has a good idea here's the idea now you all know steal the idea oh I shouldn't tell you only all right I can tell you an idea for that's a million-dollar idea okay you know he can give me 10% so anything good duplicated all right let me close with a couple of thoughts here write this down you always have what you were born with say it think about that statement a minute you are not born with skill you learn skill but you're born with a gift so they may take your job they can't take you they can't take your gift and this is the time in crisis you got to live beyond the crisis by tapping into your gift number two you can never lose what you were born with number three your future is not ahead of you it's trapped within you so your gift is which you carry with you when they release you into opportunity number four you were born with seed you're not the goal looking for your gift you born with it and I'ma find the key to your life is discovering that seed that gift and then serving that gift to the world that's what people want the guy called me last night he says your plane ticket to Nigeria is twenty thousand US dollars it's paid for this first-class I say thank you very much now in the middle of crisis they pay and that we have come to serve them my gift at the point I'm trying to make not the money it's I mean in other words when you refine and develop your gift to a point where it becomes so valuable that in the middle of crisis they will transport you around the world to deliver a gift let me just say something to gesture to keep you calm so you could be nice to me when I use my self as an example it's not pride okay see I can't teach what I am NOT doing that's why I tell you these stories if they happen to me I can't teach it so you you learn from my life say Lord if you can do it for Pastor miles I'm next in line [Applause] they looking for your gift unlike this one seeds are never in recession you ever heard of mango seeds that are grow right now because we got a recession no matter what happened in the world when you land boom you start brewing I better learn you recession is in the economy not inside your body your body has a gift that's more powerful than the recession you have a seed I always say this you know and I keep in mind myself you know you go to Haiti I know I mean if you gotta keep in mind yourself of this Haiti the United Nations claim is the poorest country in the Western world and yet many could hate it in many trees growing all over the place now the trees don't know what United Nations say are you with me the seed say you know something they open y'know stuff what I get so the seeds grow right in the middle of the country tell your neighbor doesn't care what the announcement is I got germination for my generation and they gonna eat my fruit in farming amen it's inside of you so what do you have we would be pleased and the Lord said to Moses what is that in your do you know what Moses asked God how will I deliver these people that was the answer what you need is right where you are and it's under your control that's why the book is called in Taj I became in charge of my gift and it protected me from the environment what is that in your hand a staff he says God's good throw it on the ground let me germinate this thing give you a seed to God today tell him germinate it second Kings four and two rather he and I just said to her how can I help you woman tell me what do you have in your house he didn't say go look for nothing it's right in your house you know the story ended wonderfully she said your servant has nothing there at all she said except a little oil everybody got a little something and guess what that's all in Asia needed generally Niger response that was he says so it's okay then go to your neighbors and ask them for as many bottles as you can find now she got little oil he said that's enough I'm gonna multiply this little oil in your house you've been living with it all these years it can be so much you can need other people's portals to put it in I'm gonna make you an exporter of oil that was in your house all these years she went into the oil business in that chapter she starts selling oil door neighbor's in there bottles come on God is an amazing daughter tell your neighbor y'all coming for mine and I can use your bags that is the message live beyond this crisis it's right in your house that God gives you the wisdom to overcome in Jesus name one last statement found in the book of Matthew 14 everybody read and Jesus said they do not need to go away you give them some day we have here only five loaves of bread and two fish and they answered he said that's good bring that to me you know I don't know what you got today but he said bring it to me that's enough you always have something that's enough the problem is you can't see it's enough and so does word of God comes saying you shall expand beyond your borders you shall grow in the midst of famine and the government would not own you close your Bibles thank you once again for listening to this message as we hope that it has been a blessing to you our goal is to show you new paths and opportunities so that you can discover your purpose it is your love support and partnership that makes Monroe global possible please
