Mind Your Business

Lord has made let us rejoice and be glad in it if you're happy and you know it clap your hands or y'all don't sound happy I was glad when they said unto me let's go into the house of the Lord you secure your seats I want you to take one moment to think about how you would operate in faith if money was not an issue y'all didn't hear what I just said I said how would you execute and model your faith if money was not an obstacle all kids about all eyes are closed I want you to just internalize begin to think through what are the areas that you need God to address that you need him to handle how would your faith lean towards God if every fiscal liability would now be eradicated if he moved to every financial obstacle out of the way some of you can't see it because you don't have the faith for it but those of you who believe by faith that our God can do anything but fail I can't hear you I said anything but failed I want you to clap your hands just for the possibilities I can't hear you I said just for the possibilities the Bible says that the oil flows from the head and then goes down to the skirts of the road do you imagine just one paycheck a month we'll handle all of the bills of your house y'all didn't hear what I just said huh I'm trying to stretch your faith today one paycheck a month we'll handle all of the financial needs of your house and everything else you can save it you can invest it I can't hear anybody in here God will multiply it how many of you believe if he does it for the church house he'll do it for my house that's the kind of faith I want us to operate in that I want us to model and that I want us to execute the last Sunday in September last Sunday in September is gonna be a hallmark groundbreaking day for our ministry we're believing by faith above tithes and offerings beyond our tithes and offerings that we're gonna lend unto God a sacrifice of a half-million dollars in one day how many of you believe that God is gonna do it in one day y'all don't have that kind of faith I wish I was at Newport how many of you believe God can pay off your biggest bill in one day that God can meet all of your financial needs in one day I want you to prophesy and encourage the people who are on your row in just a moment tell me he can do it in one day hallelujah that that's the wrong neighbor find one more tell them God can do it in just one day

next to you Luke chapter 17 [Music] Luke chapter 17 we commenced our reading this morning at verse 12 and find our way down to verse 17 Luke chapter 17 verses 12 through 17 as he was going into a village ten men who had leprosy met him they stood at a distance and called out in a loud voice Jesus master have pity on us when he saw them he said go show yourself to the priest and as they win they were cleansed one of them when he saw he was healed came back praising God in a loud voice he threw himself at Jesus's feet and thanked him and he was a Samaritan Jesus asked were not all ten cleansed where are the other nine you may receive it Jesus is gone into a village he encountered ten men who had leprosy they stood at a distance and called out in a loud voice Jesus master have a pity on us when he saw them he said go show yourselves to the priests and as they went they were cleansed one of them when he saw he was healed came back praising God in a loud voice threw himself at Jesus's feet and thanked him he was a Samaritan Jesus asked were not all ten cleansed where the other nine I want to preach for a little while this morning about the talented tenth the talented tenth my dear comrades as a transplant resident transforming into an Atlantian it's been nothing short of interesting hailed as the epicenter of the civil rights movement revered as the incubator for dr. King celebrated for the achievements of the Atlanta University Center studied for the minority economic development strides under Maynard Jackson the opening of the International Airport by ambassador Andrew Young I find it peculiar event in the eight months that I've been here nobody has mentioned the Atlanta exposition in 1865 when Booker T Washington delivered the hallmark address entitled the Atlanta compromise the esteemed president of the Tuskegee Institute along with other Negro leaders of their time made an agreement with the white establishment to submit without resistance to their policies in exchange for a basic education that would be limited to trade and vocations they will get reasonable due process of law and in return they vowed to never retaliate against racist to never demand equality or expect integration with absolutely no conversation of higher education that would lead to a college degree the Atlanta compromise reeked of a contract against consciousness and I am afraid from 1865 to now 2019 somewhere sprinkled in the residue of the oxygen of this city has in fact become the spirit of compromise there is nothing biblically they can never substantiate God issuing a basic blessing what it is that God has for your life has for your family has for your future is not synonymous with compromise God wants you to take the road that is less traveled that is in fact exemplary of the spirit of excellence that takes you away from that which domani acts would allow you to compromise basic-cable only comes with channels that have commercials when you've paid for the premium it means you expect not to be interrupted the basic model of a car comes with no air and no sound where it is that God is give me to take you comes with a premium package you have to live at a place where I expect God's best in this hour in this season of your life it has to be all or nothing you gonna have to handle me coming with God or you don't want me there is no compromise I will no longer hide my brilliance my intelligence or my creativity just to make mediocre people feel comfortable there will be no compromise either you gonna take all of my personality all of my charisma all of my effervescence or you don't want none of it you can't just have me when I got kids y'all ain't saying nothing there will be no compromise you can't like me on Friday but don't want to be with me on Sunday morning there will be no compromise when God unleashes what he has for me you cannot take it in portions you've got to eat all of it because God wants me to be whole and you can't love me in pieces I need somebody who has come to the place of their own consciousness and their own moral compass that I will not compromise just for public affirmation I'm too old to do it for the gram I cannot do it for the likes y'all ain't saying nothing I cannot do it for the Philo's and so if you got unfollow me because I stand for righteousness say it's all right cuz I know you looking even if you never liked my page I will not compromise rising rising and righteous indignation to the Atlanta compromise with the erudite WB Dubois penned an essay in response entitled the Negro problem his counterclaim to refute Washington's position was that there had to be room for the talented tenth his theory maintained that one in 10 blacks would rise to the top of their fields and impact the world he opined that the best and brightest blacks which compromise of the talented tenth must be afforded higher education if progress was to be made the 10% would lead the charge for change that the country needed Riley it must be mentioned that there is a surge in inner cities with a 79% high school graduation rate yet he contends even from the Crypt that even with 79% graduating from high school it is 10% that will excel and make the difference you probably really don't understand why you are in the see you are in in this sanctuary or why you are tuned in from the cyber sanctuary is the only reason why you are here on this particular Sunday at this particular time is God needed you to know that you are in his designated 10% y'all just missed it maybe I've gone too deep on a Sunday morning what God has put on your life 90% of other people wish that they had it but it is not endowed upon you so that you would be arrogant and have a big head you are anointed so that you can bring other people out of bondage and the into the place where they are supposed to be the reason why the attack on your life is so great is because you are not a part of the running run of the MIL the status quo you are not average you are not like everybody else but you stand out for such a time as this the call on your life is so pronounced that even when you try to play the background God always pushes you to the front what God has put on you even when you don't want to be recognized you keep being drafted for assignments because most people can't handle what it is that God has put on your life I am talking to 10% of those of you who know I am fearfully and wonderfully made there is something different about me and the evidence is I don't even match the other people in my like I don't even sing like the other people that I grew up with I don't even have the desires that excite other people there is something about me that separates me from other people it is hard for me to be impressed hard for me to be excited because in this season of my life you don't even understand I had the bags the shoes and the trips now I wanna make a legacy I want to leave I impact I want to do something for generations that are yet unborn and those of you that are glad that you are not like the rest of the population would you give God glory that there's something different on your life be seated please be seated I want you to lay hands on yourself and declare out loud I'm not like everybody else and I'm glad about it [Music] [Applause] some people around you I'm not shouting clapping or responding no where you about and we gonna come back and get them later the only people who are giving God glory of those who know I'm uniquely gifted what God put on me I didn't get it out of a book I didn't get it out of a classroom I woke up like this God gave me this anointed to do what no other power can do what I find interesting if not shocking is that Dubois aah-ha betraying humanists co-founder to n-double-a-cp is not the actual originator of the expression but Israeli was birthed out of a Caucasian by the name of Henry Lyman Morehouse found of my beloved alma mater Morehouse College this man said seven years prior to divorce a speech he proclaimed that the talented tenth would be the tenth of those who have superior natural endowments who are symmetrically trained and highly developed may become a mightier influence and a greater inspiration to those who are in the nine you don't even understand that what God has put on your life has shaped you to be a history maker and a world changer there is something definitive about your whole journey of life that separates you you knew that there was something special but your own family didn't know how to foster it and develop it your your own church didn't even know how to maximize it and shellac it you had to learn it through ups and downs and through heartbreaks and through disappointment you are able to look yourself in the eye and say I'm bad in this I don't know how would here zombie in this lot but God's gotta have something else please est warns us that there's nothing new Under the Sun so if W he be divorced in and discovered the talented tenth if him Realignment Morehouse didn't initiate it where did the talented tenth come from I'm glad you asked I want to suggest to you umbly that the talented tenth is birthed out of Luke chapter 17 Luke chapter 17 Jesus is on his way to Jerusalem and while he's on his way to Jerusalem he encounters a colony of lepers leprosy is a communicative degenerative disease that causes the body to fall apart you can be scratching your head and when you scratch your head a pinky or fall off Pecha hell fall off it's a communicable disease here it is it was not hereditary you only caught leprosy by who you associated with it was not nature it was nurture so in order to cloister them apart those who had leprosy had to live separate from other people for compromise here it is was the cause of their calamity they couldn't live in general population because nobody wanted to catch it so these ten lepers are far from where Jesus is and they are falling apart every part of them is not stable but while they are still far from God they stop calling after him they start crying after him is what Luke says son of David have mercy on us every now and again when you come to God's house and you feel like you are distant from him that is not the time for you to be quiet but you got a call-out under him why because I feel like I'm about to lose it I need you to look at the person beside and say don't let these church clothes fool you this has been a hella fat week for me I've been through some stuff that has almost made me go crazy I almost killed myself or killed somebody but the only thing that kept me together yes I learned how to call after him and I need somebody in the room that can admit ain't got everything but I still got enough sense to call on the name of God to keep me together before I lose I'm calling out to God be seated please I'm I'm calling out to God because I don't want to fall apart I'm tired of crying tired of being depressed tired of being unhappy I ain't calling him for no car for no house and no money god I need you to keep me can I give it to you now unto Him who is able to keep you from falling apart I'd tell you to give God glory like God don't keep you together no matter what you are dealing with so those levels start calling out to God because they feel like they losing it feel like that they're being unhinged that they're losing their core can't find their setting don't have any grounding and so they just start calling out under God there is no quiet no praise team no organ no drums no cameras all they know is I need God and I need them now I don't know how you feel about it but there comes a place in your real relationship with God where you ain't gotta come to church to give him glory but sometimes you ain't even got the strength to get out of the bed you gotta sit on the side of the bed and say Lord if you don't intervene right now I'm gonna do something I'm a regret you you gotta do something to show me and Jesus sees him calling out from afar and he yells back to them go show yourself to the pastor says I need you to go to the church so the church can see how you got restored [Applause] why is Jesus sending them to the church because when they were sick the church ostracized y'all ain't saying nothing to me I get sick of pretentious saints who act like they too good to help people like they'd never fallen apart before themselves I need a real church that won't judge me but will love me back to wholeness since I need you to go back to the church cuz ever since you started falling apart you stopped coming ever since your head church heard you act like you can't come in there ain't talking to y'all I'm talking to people watching online ever since you lost your position you felt as if that the church was defined by people and not by me but he said I need you to go back to the church and let them know their little committee didn't do this but in my private worship God put me back together again I gotta get out of here but would you do me a favor would you just strike a pose right there shy couple why cuz I need them to look at me not look at how I made it in spite of what you said about Matt Striker pop [Applause] be seated come on polls on them this I look in my new car yes I look in my house this is how I looked at free strike a pose on them hide us God [Applause] he says I need you to go to the church and show them what you look like so um the strength that you have received show up how you been restored y'all the slow I can tell you I haven't eaten yet let me help you he said go to the church show them that you made a rebound that you got a full recovery that everything you lost is coming back to you go to the church and shout until they can't take it scream until they get a header to dance until they roll their eyes and tell all of them I gotta get out of here I need you to shake that neighbor's hand I feel like preaching today I said I shake that neighbor's hand and say neighbor you just miss what happened the miracle didn't happen while they were in church the miracle didn't happen when they left church but the miracle happened while they were on their way to church and somebody on right now that whatever you need is already whenever you've been praying for it's already here whatever you trust him to do he'll know what's wrong with y'all would you be seated what's wrong with y'all why are you screaming like that what's wrong with shop you better not let nobody [Applause] in verse 13 there crying unto the Lord Jesus have mercy on us but after they get the word from God they are no longer crying the Bible says they're praying y'all get ready to miss it God told me to tell you your season for crying is over every time you see me you gonna be able to testify that this joy that the world didn't give it and the world can't take it away give somebody a high five and tell them I'm happy I'm happy about where I am I'm happy about what he's doing I'm happy about my future I'm happy about my children all right god help me hallelujah do me a favor please this this ain't for y'all this just might get fresh crew up front they do this for me just those of y'all who are up front which I'll just start walking for me I'm telling you where to go just start walking I gotta show you what the Bible says the Bible says a when they started walking everything that was out of order fell in the place this ain't for everybody but those are the need job to put some stuff in order I gotta just walked in your side walk in your prophecy walk in your gift walked into what is promised I'm not falling apart but he's keeping me alive you ought to tell say Donna no but that is formed against me shall [Music] come on walk it out he's sidewalk tada body care and walked out I'm gonna walk him out Detroit oh wow if you believe it open up your mouth and tell them thank you thank you gotcha find you [Music] [Music] and after they started walking and notice that their skin was now healed the epidermis is now restored follicles of the hair starting to be restored ears are growing back toes are now back in position only one came back the one that came back fell at Jesus's feet and begin to praise Him for restoration Jesus asked him a critical question that I gotta ask you this morning he has some way out of the other nine that man didn't even understand I know I took the long way home that man didn't even understand he represented the talented tenth that only one out of ten would understand the principle of giving God thanks giving him glory he said cuz you came back to me other people that just got healed but you were getting restored so I'm gonna make everything connected to you better I apologize I've realized I'm jumping you from the back disseminating about what you think it is discernment really exemplifies for all of us in glaring detail that the talented tenth is another word for tithe [Music] [Applause] my tithe is 10% of my income act of tithing is giving over to God but I know that he is due living in a culture in an age and in a season where humankind has moral leprosy that started with Adam and Eve eaten other forbidden fruit sin is the cause salvation is the cure and the tithe is the prescription when I give my 10% it breaks the cycle and the curse of poverty over my life Matthew 6 and 33 says seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all other things be added unto you the 10% goes into the hand of God in case you missed it in case you were daydreaming you forgot leprosy as a communicable disease it's a transfer so whatever hallelujah whenever God puts his hand on the 10% if then begins to touch the 90s god I can't hear nobody God ain't gonna just bless my gift in this house but I need God to bless the rest of my resources so that my finances I never sick again the grace of God because of the obedience of his call

last paycheck by next year this time that'll be the amount of your time god I tell you nobody I said whatever was the amount of your last [Applause] lift up their hand I'm gonna speak something over you I declare decree of every lifted hand there not another moment of your life will you feel like you're falling apart I pray that God will keep you in perfect peace then he'll exceed your expectation I pray that God will connect you to like-minded believers who will not talk you out of your blessing but walk with you to your blessing and those of you that believe that this is the season where God is gonna bless the Tigers would you open up your mouth and give God glory right now [Applause] [Music] come on open up your mouth I want you to do this for me every person is standing

members they came as friends they're leaving as family here come two more somebody give God as that you'll follow us out this way we want to give some information to you come on new birth make some noise for Maya happy to hear I want you to be seated the last Sunday of this month lesson day of this month is our demonstration Sunday all of us are tithing together I want you to give your attention to the screen just so that you can get snapshots and glimpses of how powerful the mechanism of tithing is give your attention to the screen please [Music] tithing is just a sacrifice that we give back to the one that gave us life you know God made a sacrifice when he gave everything he had which was his son so when you look at tithe in that way that was the biggest tithe that he could give he gave everything so that we have life and we have it eternally eternal life we have it abundantly and we have it exceedingly so when you look at it that way everything that we have we have to return a portion of that back to the kingdom of God you know so he can use it for that purpose so that's taiidan for me tithing has blessed me he has blessed me with great health my wife with great health he gave you children that's got great health and just all the financial blessings our home and everything else so that's the most important thing that tithing has done for me yes and for me it's just that you know just to think about the word tithing it's what you're going to give God bag it's just not just that 10% it's that extra because not just with me and my husband we're celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary tomorrow and we're here to celebrate with God and his people so therefore when you're tithing you're not just giving your money you're giving your sacrifice and with that been saying what he do with that is he will bless you and your family more abundantly all you can actually think okay I've been with this guy for 30 years and you know that's a blessing and we have three grown children plus the secure old granddaughter so it's just a blessing once you obey God he will bless y'all and you're looking at it cuz we're a blessing Titan has blessed my life because I have seen that more things come to me when I just follow the word of the Lord I've always been the one to say you know well maybe not this week maybe next week I don't have it this week but once I realized that if I follow the word of the Lord all things that I need will come to me how tithing has blessed me is through God's Way of saying I trust you or I'm there for you no matter what so you gotta trust no matter if it's your last dime you have to trust that God is there no matter where when you tithe it's one is your spiritual responsibility so there's a peace that comes along with doing that each and every time you are paid to give your ten percent back to that and therefore back to the church I know for me being a new member of new birth I know my money is being put to good use and for the use of God's work and that brings me comfort and peace as a member of this church I think timing is important because you have to give back to God his heresy and I feel like my like example is because of it somebody give God a hand clap of praise my topic is giving unto God 10% of what he's given to us God has to give up every good and every perfect gift if it ain't good it ain't from God did y'all hear what I just said if it ain't good it didn't come from God I want us to be a 100 percent tithe in church as a consequence our Usher's are moving amongst you they have envelopes in the
