Tozer talks about both God's pursuit of man and man's pursuit of God being 57 00:04:23.700 --> 00:04:25.300 equally of importance. 58 00:04:25.300 --> 00:04:33.580 It's this co-laboring dynamic where we feel the pursuit of God, but we also come together 59 00:04:33.580 --> 00:04:36.780 and co-labor in the context of pursuit. 60 00:04:36.780 --> 00:04:40.820 There's a both-and that's happening in our relationship with the Father. 61 00:04:40.820 --> 00:04:48.580 And as we step into that, the summons of glory all has to manifest as something, right? 62 00:04:48.580 --> 00:04:56.540 And that's why it comes down to this idea that God has released a spirit, his spirit, 63 00:04:56.540 --> 00:05:00.020 his glory on the earth for us to experience. 64 00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:06.520 in everyday life and we see that in scriptures like Deuteronomy 8 18 when 65 00:05:06.520 --> 00:05:12.680 you're in the context of when you enter the promised land remember that is the 66 00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:17.560 Lord your God has given you the ability to produce wealth for it so confirms 67 00:05:17.560 --> 00:05:24.040 your covenant with him meaning that your covenant confirmation is actually 68 00:05:24.040 --> 00:05:29.640 predicated on your ability to produce wealth that he's given you so there's 69 00:05:29.640 --> 00:05:35.000 this whole dynamic where we're in this interplay of kingdom glory and pursuit 70 00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:40.760 and intentionality and going after things together and I want to you know I 71 00:05:40.760 --> 00:05:44.760 think we want to today really cover an integral piece of the heart of the 72 00:05:44.760 --> 00:05:51.440 father inside the context of wealth that we can't get beyond and really it's the 73 00:05:51.440 --> 00:05:56.000 it's the beginning and centerpiece of understanding a wealth mindset and it 74 00:05:56.000 --> 00:06:00.680 really is that this comes back to this concept that we find throughout all of 75 00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:06.000 Proverbs starting in chapter 1 chapter 9 it's got a really strong piece of it as 76 00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:10.000 well there's other places all throughout the scriptures where really it comes 77 00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:16.480 down to this idea that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom 78 00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:23.560 translation into our context is like the fear of the Lord and the fear and the 79 00:06:23.560 --> 00:06:30.800 awe and the wonder and the majesty of God actually opens up the potential for 80 00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:35.720 us to receive more of him and so think about it like this you know there's a 81 00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:40.760 scripture in the Gospels that talks about if you're willing to receive a 82 00:06:40.760 --> 00:06:46.360 prophet in the name of the prophet you receive the prophets reward right if 83 00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:50.600 you're entering so they can't talk to understand that we have to really think 84 00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:56.560 about what is the prophets reward right the prophets reward is faith faith to 85 00:06:56.560 --> 00:07:00.920 believe that God is going to release something on the earth faith to believe 86 00:07:00.920 --> 00:07:07.400 that when something comes in faith it's actually already established right so 87 00:07:07.400 --> 00:07:13.080 the determining factor of the grace you receive from the prophet is determined 88 00:07:13.080 --> 00:07:18.840 by your ability to steward faith and this is where it comes back to the 89 00:07:18.840 --> 00:07:22.880 spirit of the fear of the Lord right because if we are willing to enter in 90 00:07:22.880 --> 00:07:29.080 with faith and the pursuit of God and putting him in his rightful place we 91 00:07:29.080 --> 00:07:34.200 actually get to understand that the perpetual cycle of glory happens through 92 00:07:34.200 --> 00:07:39.120 grace it happens through faith so if I come to the spirit of the Lord with a 93 00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:44.640 measure of faith and the fear of the Lord that he is awesome and powerful if 94 00:07:44.640 --> 00:07:50.720 I come to the Lord in that grace the measure of my ability to steward faith 95 00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:56.480 for the Lord is the amount to which I'm going to be able to receive him that's 96 00:07:56.480 --> 00:08:02.160 offensive because it's actually on us and our level of faith stewardship of 97 00:08:02.160 --> 00:08:07.320 our faith in order to receive the grace for more right and so in the context of 98 00:08:07.320 --> 00:08:15.080 wealth the fear of the Lord looks like fear of the spirit of wealth or honor or 99 00:08:15.080 --> 00:08:20.280 glory of the spirit of wealth actually looks like opening up our capacity to 100 00:08:20.280 --> 00:08:24.880 dream open up our capacity to think bigger than ourselves and open up the 101 00:08:24.880 --> 00:08:32.480 taking off the limitations of what it looks like to to live a glorious life in 102 00:08:32.480 --> 00:08:39.440 the kingdom and so that concept of the fear of the Lord is is really the 103 00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:46.800 centerpiece of understanding wealth yes it's good I think going off of that just 104 00:08:46.800 --> 00:08:53.360 diving into practically what living in the fear of the Lord looks like and 105 00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:59.040 really the idea that one of the biggest enemies of walking in the fear of the 106 00:08:59.040 --> 00:09:05.240 Lord is actually the spirit of religion and religiosity because religion is 107 00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:12.800 actually not fearing the Lord it's it's living by law and not by relationship 108 00:09:12.800 --> 00:09:21.440 because fear is is this desire to do from our hearts because of love to honor 109 00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:28.600 the Lord to really do what he demands but out of a place of like our husband 110 00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:34.920 and wife relationship like I I want to in a certain sense fear said because I 111 00:09:34.920 --> 00:09:39.040 want to honor I want to receive the fullness of who said is so I want to get 112 00:09:39.040 --> 00:09:44.440 to know who said is just like said is getting to know who I am and so then I 113 00:09:44.440 --> 00:09:49.760 get to receive more of who he is because I'm honoring what what is on his life 114 00:09:49.760 --> 00:09:54.760 I'm honoring who he is I'm getting to know what pleases him what what pulls 115 00:09:54.920 --> 00:09:59.360 him out what allows him to be who he really is and he's doing the same for me 116 00:09:59.360 --> 00:10:01.920 and that's how 117 00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:01.560 we benefit inside of our marriage. 118 00:10:01.560 --> 00:10:06.480 And so religion is trying to do all the right things 119 00:10:06.480 --> 00:10:08.760 outside of relationship. 120 00:10:08.760 --> 00:10:12.720 And really the foundation of the fear of the Lord 121 00:10:12.720 --> 00:10:15.240 is that we've come to the end of ourselves. 122 00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:17.920 And religion in and of itself is saying 123 00:10:17.920 --> 00:10:20.460 you're still operating in self-reliance, 124 00:10:20.460 --> 00:10:23.640 self-righteousness, trying to do it all right. 125 00:10:23.640 --> 00:10:26.680 And practically that just doesn't get the results 126 00:10:26.680 --> 00:10:28.560 that we're looking for. 127 00:10:28.560 --> 00:10:31.440 Specifically in creating wealth and stewardship 128 00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:33.360 and all of those things. 129 00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:37.040 Just like Jesus spoke to the Pharisees in his time 130 00:10:37.040 --> 00:10:42.040 and how he felt about them is the same way. 131 00:10:43.400 --> 00:10:45.440 And the other thing that goes along with that 132 00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:50.440 is that if you look in Matthew 5 at the, 133 00:10:52.720 --> 00:10:55.720 sorry, let me pull it up really quick, 134 00:10:55.720 --> 00:10:58.680 at the Sermon on the Mount, 135 00:10:58.680 --> 00:11:03.520 then you see how our actual call to stewardship 136 00:11:03.520 --> 00:11:07.480 in the context of Jesus after Jesus 137 00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:12.080 versus the law is a higher calling. 138 00:11:12.080 --> 00:11:14.960 It's actually a heart posture, a heart calling. 139 00:11:14.960 --> 00:11:19.680 So in the law, it says to not commit adultery. 140 00:11:19.680 --> 00:11:23.640 And if you go to Matthew 5, 28, 141 00:11:23.680 --> 00:11:27.040 it actually says, but I tell you 142 00:11:27.040 --> 00:11:30.040 that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully 143 00:11:30.040 --> 00:11:33.720 has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 144 00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:37.360 And it just goes on and on about the different matters 145 00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:40.680 of how there's actually this higher calling 146 00:11:40.680 --> 00:11:45.040 inside of the Lord, in the fear of the Lord, 147 00:11:45.040 --> 00:11:48.320 that actually leads to the results that we're looking for. 148 00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:49.160 Totally. 149 00:11:49.320 --> 00:11:54.080 I think there's some things in here 150 00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:55.680 that we can dive into, 151 00:11:55.680 --> 00:11:58.720 and I'd love to just take some time to dive into them. 152 00:11:58.720 --> 00:12:03.720 I was talking to a man 153 00:12:04.400 --> 00:12:05.800 that if you're in New Zealand, 154 00:12:05.800 --> 00:12:07.640 you probably have heard of. 155 00:12:07.640 --> 00:12:09.440 His name is Christopher Luxon. 156 00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:14.440 He used to be the CEO of Air New Zealand. 157 00:12:14.800 --> 00:12:17.440 And he's really, really cool guy. 158 00:12:18.360 --> 00:12:20.400 Just put a comment in the chat 159 00:12:20.400 --> 00:12:22.920 if you've ever flown Air New Zealand. 160 00:12:22.920 --> 00:12:24.360 Just a great, great airline. 161 00:12:24.360 --> 00:12:27.480 Anyways, I was talking to him, 162 00:12:27.480 --> 00:12:31.560 and he was talking about progress, 163 00:12:31.560 --> 00:12:33.000 and he was talking about business. 164 00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:35.440 He was talking about all kinds of different things. 165 00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:36.840 And we were having this conversation, 166 00:12:36.840 --> 00:12:39.560 and he said this thing that stuck with me forever. 167 00:12:39.560 --> 00:12:42.520 He said, you know, he said, 168 00:12:42.560 --> 00:12:46.600 I don't really hire ministry people. 169 00:12:48.160 --> 00:12:50.520 And I wasn't looking for a job. 170 00:12:50.520 --> 00:12:54.560 I wasn't trying to get a job with him. 171 00:12:55.640 --> 00:12:58.440 There was no requirement on his part there. 172 00:12:58.440 --> 00:13:00.960 But he said to me, I don't really hire people. 173 00:13:00.960 --> 00:13:02.200 He was more direct than that. 174 00:13:02.200 --> 00:13:03.960 He said, I don't really hire people like you, 175 00:13:03.960 --> 00:13:05.040 ministry people. 176 00:13:06.240 --> 00:13:07.440 And ha, ha, ha. 177 00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:09.440 And he said, the reason is 178 00:13:09.560 --> 00:13:13.040 because you don't know how to do goals. 179 00:13:13.040 --> 00:13:16.040 And it hit me like a ton of bricks. 180 00:13:16.040 --> 00:13:21.040 Like we, in the spirit of religion, 181 00:13:21.520 --> 00:13:26.440 often keeps people from dreaming so big 182 00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:28.960 that they actually are willing to put their goals 183 00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:32.720 and their visions and their dreams into an achievable plan 184 00:13:32.720 --> 00:13:35.040 and achieve them and go after them, right? 185 00:13:35.040 --> 00:13:38.920 And I was definitely offended. 186 00:13:40.080 --> 00:13:44.320 But I was also felt this place of like being pulled in 187 00:13:44.320 --> 00:13:47.120 to something greater in the moment of, 188 00:13:47.120 --> 00:13:51.160 man, I've got to understand in the Lord 189 00:13:51.160 --> 00:13:55.120 what it looks like to be stewarding myself, 190 00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:57.360 taking ownership of myself 191 00:13:57.360 --> 00:14:00.640 in a way that like I could actually step in 192 00:14:00.640 --> 00:14:04.520 to the seven mountains and create an impact 193 00:14:04.520 --> 00:14:08.200 rather than staying and hiding inside the church 194 00:14:08.200 --> 00:14:13.040 behind this idea of we just kind of flow 195 00:14:13.040 --> 00:14:16.440 and see what happens and trust the Holy Spirit, 196 00:14:16.440 --> 00:14:17.920 which is awesome. 197 00:14:17.920 --> 00:14:21.320 But when like the Holy Spirit wants to do something, 198 00:14:21.320 --> 00:14:25.560 he actually also puts all the responsibility in our court. 199 00:14:25.560 --> 00:14:27.640 And then that's the offensive reality 200 00:14:27.640 --> 00:14:30.720 is that like the fear of the Lord 201 00:14:30.720 --> 00:14:34.960 doesn't just mean we just give God all our responsibility. 202 00:14:34.960 --> 00:14:37.720 It doesn't mean we just surrender all of our life 203 00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:40.960 to the place where we're not entertained 204 00:14:40.960 --> 00:14:43.440 with the actual work of doing things. 205 00:14:43.440 --> 00:14:46.440 It actually means, God, I fear you. 206 00:14:46.440 --> 00:14:48.200 I'm so much in honor of you 207 00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:51.840 that I'm actually willing to step in with my entire life, 208 00:14:51.840 --> 00:14:54.840 with my entire action, with my entire thoughts, 209 00:14:54.840 --> 00:14:56.480 with my entire planning. 210 00:14:56.480 --> 00:14:59.480 I'm willing to use the intellectual capability 211 00:14:59.480 --> 00:15:00.640 that you've given me. 212 00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:05.560 given me to step in and create pathways for freedom for other people. I'm willing to step 213 00:15:05.560 --> 00:15:12.240 in and create pathways for myself because, excuse me, I know that if I arise and shine 214 00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:17.760 that the Lord is going to shine through me to the rest of the world. And it's this internal 215 00:15:17.760 --> 00:15:24.240 process of saying, God, I'm willing to go on the journey of saying, your way is higher 216 00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:30.120 and my understanding of how to steward wealth and how to steward your goodness is actually 217 00:15:30.120 --> 00:15:38.080 dependent upon my ability to take ownership in a situation. And for me, I think a lot 218 00:15:38.080 --> 00:15:44.480 of this boils back to this one idea that Claire's kind of alluded to when talking about the 219 00:15:44.480 --> 00:15:51.080 spirit of religion, is the idea that in Christendom, let's just be really honest for a minute, 220 00:15:51.080 --> 00:15:56.960 in Christendom, we're actually more aware of other people's sin and falling short of 221 00:15:56.960 --> 00:16:04.200 their sin and their sin not being working or causing problems than we are of the goodness 222 00:16:04.200 --> 00:16:11.000 that God has put inside of us. And if you are fearing the Lord, you're not aware of 223 00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:18.560 other people's sin as much as you're aware of the potential of God manifesting through 224 00:16:18.560 --> 00:16:23.000 your life. This is what the fear of the Lord looks like. It looks like saying, God, I'm 225 00:16:23.000 --> 00:16:29.680 going to choose to consider myself dead to sin and alive to Christ. I'm not going to 226 00:16:29.680 --> 00:16:35.320 actually consider those dead things anymore because I'm actually dead to them. And I'm 227 00:16:35.320 --> 00:16:44.360 going to consider myself alive and fully glorified in your love and in your life and in your 228 00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:49.080 goodness. That's the manifestation of it. And that is where it requires me to take 229 00:16:49.080 --> 00:16:57.000 ownership of the goodness of heaven in our lives. So does that make sense? Give us a 230 00:16:57.000 --> 00:17:03.120 yes in the comments if that makes sense. Because there's a meaty concept there, but what it 231 00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:09.680 really boils down to is this. What you're more aware of is what you're going to manifest 232 00:17:09.680 --> 00:17:16.240 in your life. So if you're aware of the Lord and his goodness and his mercy, you're going 233 00:17:16.240 --> 00:17:21.040 to receive that. If you're aware and have a place in your heart to receive the spirit 234 00:17:21.040 --> 00:17:25.920 of wealth, you're going to receive the spirit of wealth. And you're going to see the goodness 235 00:17:25.920 --> 00:17:32.720 of heaven manifest in that place. Does that make sense? Yeah. I think one of the things 236 00:17:32.720 --> 00:17:37.300 that I heard somebody say recently that goes along with that really well is really how 237 00:17:37.300 --> 00:17:43.700 you do anything is how you do everything. And that's really what goes along with this 238 00:17:43.700 --> 00:17:49.460 concept is the fact that when Jesus is looking for our heart, when he's looking for our intentions 239 00:17:49.460 --> 00:17:54.540 of our heart, not even whether we do it right or not or anything, it's actually it starts 240 00:17:54.540 --> 00:17:59.620 with the intention of our heart. And so it's really about how you do anything in your life 241 00:17:59.620 --> 00:18:05.420 is how you do everything. So it's like how you do the dishes, how you make your bed, 242 00:18:05.420 --> 00:18:11.660 how you steward your relationship with the important people in your life, how you treat 243 00:18:11.660 --> 00:18:16.820 you know, an insignificant, seemingly insignificant person walking by you, how you know, the things 244 00:18:16.820 --> 00:18:21.340 that don't seem that important, you know, these are the things that Jesus went after 245 00:18:21.340 --> 00:18:26.340 the Pharisees over more than anything else. You know, they wanted to be seen preying on 246 00:18:26.340 --> 00:18:33.180 the corners and doing all this kind of stuff. And he was, you know, honoring the widow who 247 00:18:33.180 --> 00:18:40.540 gave her last might to be as the most honorable, you know, as the one who in secret, actually 248 00:18:40.540 --> 00:18:46.060 with the intention of her heart actually gave a sacrifice to the Lord, a real sacrifice. 249 00:18:46.060 --> 00:18:50.660 You know, well, they wanted to see everybody do everyone wanted to see them doing it, you 250 00:18:50.660 --> 00:18:55.900 know, was and so that it really is about, you know, the stewardship that that lends 251 00:18:55.900 --> 00:19:02.300 towards the creation of wealth, the creation of prosperity in every way, you know, as we've 252 00:19:02.300 --> 00:19:08.300 really been on this journey has been finding that it's like, oh, man, like, this is this 253 00:19:08.300 --> 00:19:16.620 is a high level that the Spirit is what allows us to do this, the Spirit of Christ, instead 254 00:19:16.620 --> 00:19:23.260 of the religious spirit. So there's a cap on the religious spirit, right? But there's 255 00:19:23.260 --> 00:19:31.140 no cap on the Spirit of Christ in what's possible. You know, we have the resurrection life of 256 00:19:31.220 --> 00:19:37.540 Christ living inside of us. And there's no cap on that. And so really, when we step out 257 00:19:37.540 --> 00:19:44.260 of that place, and we start to operate, like Seb was saying, in a mindset of what is possible, 258 00:19:44.260 --> 00:19:50.100 it will all of a sudden be that like, we want to make our bed beautifully in the morning. 259 00:19:50.100 --> 00:19:55.620 And it seems like such an insignificant thing. But it starts to be that those kind of things 260 00:19:55.620 --> 00:19:59.780 are what mark your life, and who you are, and you realize 261 00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:06.960 That it is down to the most insignificant things that seemingly shouldn't matter to 262 00:20:06.960 --> 00:20:12.560 whether you prosper in life or not, become the most important things. 263 00:20:12.560 --> 00:20:15.560 And I think that's because God is always looking at the heart. 264 00:20:15.560 --> 00:20:16.560 Always. 265 00:20:16.560 --> 00:20:18.560 I think God always looks at the heart. 266 00:20:18.560 --> 00:20:23.960 And at the end of the day, whether we're willing to protect what's going on inside our heart 267 00:20:23.960 --> 00:20:30.240 with the Lord or not determines where our fear of the Lord really is. 268 00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:35.400 And I think as we've gone on this journey, you know, we've really begun to understand 269 00:20:35.400 --> 00:20:42.560 that what you believe about the spirit of wealth is probably the best mirror that you 270 00:20:42.560 --> 00:20:48.160 could ever put in somebody's face to see where they're actually at in their life. 271 00:20:48.160 --> 00:20:56.280 For example, if you believe that everything is meant to come to you for free, you're probably 272 00:20:56.280 --> 00:20:57.280 poor. 273 00:20:57.280 --> 00:21:05.160 And the reason for that is that if you think that there's no engagement inside your life 274 00:21:05.160 --> 00:21:12.120 for the things that are going to happen, you're misunderstanding the dynamic of the pursuit 275 00:21:12.120 --> 00:21:21.880 of God, God's pursuit of man, and man's pursuit of God working together for a holistic, powerful 276 00:21:21.880 --> 00:21:26.080 co-laboring relationship in the context of heaven. 277 00:21:26.080 --> 00:21:33.640 Heaven manifests in the explosion of God's pursuit and man's pursuit. 278 00:21:33.640 --> 00:21:34.640 In return. 279 00:21:34.640 --> 00:21:35.640 In return. 280 00:21:35.640 --> 00:21:36.640 Yeah. 281 00:21:36.640 --> 00:21:37.640 Absolutely. 282 00:21:37.640 --> 00:21:39.080 This is where heaven happens. 283 00:21:39.080 --> 00:21:45.640 The explosive kingdom entrepreneurial breakthrough that we're all looking for happens in this 284 00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:49.720 moment where God leans in as we lean in. 285 00:21:49.720 --> 00:21:54.200 And the expansion of heaven exists in that space. 286 00:21:54.200 --> 00:22:02.280 And so inside that, you know, we have to be willing to look and ask ourselves the question, 287 00:22:02.280 --> 00:22:07.720 where is my heart towards the spirit of wealth? 288 00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:13.760 Where am I taking ownership for how I honor the Lord and honor his wealth? 289 00:22:13.760 --> 00:22:19.640 Am I willing to steward a wealth that looks maybe a little different than what I could 290 00:22:19.640 --> 00:22:20.960 understand? 291 00:22:20.960 --> 00:22:27.800 And honestly, have I surrendered to the spirit of wealth that is the Lord? 292 00:22:27.800 --> 00:22:35.440 Because here's the real truth that I'm really starting to believe. 293 00:22:35.440 --> 00:22:43.720 If you are not choosing to steward the way you think about wealth, you're thinking less 294 00:22:43.720 --> 00:22:47.120 than God thinks about you. 295 00:22:47.120 --> 00:22:51.700 And if you're thinking less than God thinks about you, you're not experiencing the fullness 296 00:22:51.700 --> 00:22:54.600 that God has for you. 297 00:22:54.600 --> 00:22:59.440 And there's a rebuke in there to change the way you think, but it's a come up higher. 298 00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:00.440 It's a come up. 299 00:23:00.440 --> 00:23:04.480 It's changed the way you think because there's more on the table than what you can see right 300 00:23:04.520 --> 00:23:05.520 now. 301 00:23:05.520 --> 00:23:11.360 And God wants to and is longing to see that breakthrough come into your life as you posture 302 00:23:11.360 --> 00:23:15.240 yourself to receive all of his mercy and all of his goodness. 303 00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:16.240 Yeah. 304 00:23:16.240 --> 00:23:17.240 Yeah. 305 00:23:17.240 --> 00:23:23.200 I feel like, you know, on the subject of repentance, really, you know, and living in that way with 306 00:23:23.200 --> 00:23:29.560 the Lord and the standard that he calls us to live to, it always makes me think, I know 307 00:23:29.560 --> 00:23:32.400 a lot of you probably know who Heidi Baker is. 308 00:23:32.400 --> 00:23:39.080 And I feel like every time that she speaks, she's talking almost about a time that God 309 00:23:39.080 --> 00:23:40.080 is rebuking her. 310 00:23:40.080 --> 00:23:47.760 You know, she is this woman in Africa out, you know, taking Africa for Jesus. 311 00:23:47.760 --> 00:23:55.320 And yet she's still sharing at conferences about God basically coming in and rebuking 312 00:23:55.320 --> 00:24:01.400 her in places, you know, and calling her to an even higher standard of love when it's 313 00:24:01.400 --> 00:24:07.840 like she is living beyond most people on the earth will ever live inside of love. 314 00:24:07.840 --> 00:24:13.000 But she has a relationship with the Lord that has invited the fear of the Lord, invited 315 00:24:13.000 --> 00:24:21.040 his intimacy and the love for him in at such a high level that she allows him to do that. 316 00:24:21.040 --> 00:24:23.600 She allows him a true friend. 317 00:24:23.600 --> 00:24:27.360 Somebody said today is not somebody who tells you what you want to hear. 318 00:24:27.360 --> 00:24:30.720 It's somebody who tells you what you need to hear, who calls you out. 319 00:24:31.040 --> 00:24:34.000 And God is that true friend to us a lot of the times. 320 00:24:34.000 --> 00:24:38.600 And I think I think of her, but I feel like recently in my own life, even, you know, I 321 00:24:38.600 --> 00:24:44.480 feel like the Lord has really presented some things for me, kind of prompted me to be stepping 322 00:24:44.480 --> 00:24:47.360 out uncomfortably into some things. 323 00:24:47.360 --> 00:24:53.720 And I was just really struggling with heaviness, some depression, some lethargy, just some 324 00:24:53.720 --> 00:24:55.960 things coming into my life. 325 00:24:55.960 --> 00:24:59.960 And of course, my first thought is, oh, this is a tack. 326 00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:02.560 Or, you know, I just need God to fix it. 327 00:25:02.560 --> 00:25:03.680 I need God to save me. 328 00:25:03.680 --> 00:25:05.240 I need God to like do something. 329 00:25:05.240 --> 00:25:06.720 And those things can be real. 330 00:25:06.720 --> 00:25:08.520 Like there's times where we do need that. 331 00:25:08.880 --> 00:25:14.520 Um, and it, it totally is the enemy, but, um, I'm being my own worst enemy 332 00:25:14.560 --> 00:25:16.480 as Benji talks about often. 333 00:25:16.720 --> 00:25:21.960 Um, and I really felt the Lord, you know, kindly like rebuke me in a 334 00:25:21.960 --> 00:25:26.920 sense of saying like, you're not being obedient, um, like I've set before 335 00:25:26.920 --> 00:25:33.640 you some steps to take and you're, you're fearing these things more 336 00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:35.160 than you're fearing me. 337 00:25:35.360 --> 00:25:37.120 And so you're not doing it. 338 00:25:37.400 --> 00:25:42.520 And so you're actually opening yourself up to this lethargy and this 339 00:25:42.520 --> 00:25:46.320 lack of walking in the things obediently that I've put before you. 340 00:25:46.680 --> 00:25:48.600 Um, and you're experiencing depression. 341 00:25:48.600 --> 00:25:51.560 You're experiencing all of this oppression from the enemy. 342 00:25:52.000 --> 00:25:54.320 Um, and it's a simple place of repentance. 343 00:25:54.320 --> 00:25:56.240 And in his kindness, he leads me there. 344 00:25:56.240 --> 00:25:59.040 I didn't feel like he was rebuking me. 345 00:25:59.040 --> 00:26:00.400 It set me free. 346 00:26:00.800 --> 00:26:05.400 It felt like real love because it was like, oh man, this is a good father 347 00:26:05.480 --> 00:26:09.880 who wants me walking in these things that he has given before me. 348 00:26:10.160 --> 00:26:13.000 And so he's like, please like step out in them. 349 00:26:13.000 --> 00:26:19.200 Fear me more than you fear the fear of man or the fear of looking silly or the 350 00:26:19.200 --> 00:26:25.440 fear of not being prepared or not being enough, like fear me more so that you 351 00:26:25.440 --> 00:26:28.280 can actually walk in the fullness of what I've called you to do. 352 00:26:28.280 --> 00:26:31.960 I think we see that all throughout the word, you know, Moses had to fear the 353 00:26:31.960 --> 00:26:36.960 Lord more than he feared for his life or feared Pharaoh or feared the Israelites. 354 00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:40.840 Um, and sometimes he failed at it and he learned from it like we do, but. 355 00:26:41.480 --> 00:26:43.040 But that's really the working out. 356 00:26:43.040 --> 00:26:47.280 I feel like of the fear of the Lord in our lives is that it's always his heart 357 00:26:47.280 --> 00:26:51.880 that we would be walking in what he's really called us and enjoy, like these 358 00:26:51.880 --> 00:26:53.360 are the things I want to be doing. 359 00:26:53.360 --> 00:26:57.240 It's not like he's asking me to do things that are like, oh gosh, I 360 00:26:57.240 --> 00:26:58.240 just don't want to do that. 361 00:26:58.240 --> 00:27:00.280 It's who, it's what I want to be doing. 362 00:27:00.720 --> 00:27:03.520 Um, and he's actually helping me get there. 363 00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:08.160 Um, and so, yeah, that's just kind of some of my personal process. 364 00:27:08.520 --> 00:27:11.520 Um, recently with, with that. 365 00:27:13.600 --> 00:27:14.080 Yeah. 366 00:27:14.160 --> 00:27:15.840 Um, just writing some notes. 367 00:27:15.840 --> 00:27:19.600 I don't forget what I was wanting to say after Claire was saying such good stuff. 368 00:27:19.600 --> 00:27:24.360 And, you know, I think there's, you know, going off of what Claire was saying, you 369 00:27:24.360 --> 00:27:28.440 know, there's really two things, um, that are really important to say off of that 370 00:27:28.440 --> 00:27:33.120 is that you can only move as fast as your obedience. 371 00:27:33.480 --> 00:27:36.000 Um, and God wants to move quickly with you. 372 00:27:36.520 --> 00:27:39.040 God wants to move quickly with wealth in your life. 373 00:27:39.400 --> 00:27:43.240 He actually wants to take you from, from a place of poverty into a place of 374 00:27:43.240 --> 00:27:43.880 abundance. 375 00:27:44.200 --> 00:27:44.480 Yeah. 376 00:27:44.480 --> 00:27:49.560 We have experienced totally, you know, we have, um, we have 377 00:27:49.560 --> 00:27:54.720 an experience in the last six months where, you know, in July and June, uh, 378 00:27:54.760 --> 00:27:58.720 we were earning, um, $500 a month. 379 00:27:59.880 --> 00:28:01.520 Lord, just laugh at that. 380 00:28:01.560 --> 00:28:02.240 Ha ha ha. 381 00:28:03.720 --> 00:28:08.840 Um, but as we stepped into the fear of the Lord, we moved back to the U S um, and 382 00:28:08.840 --> 00:28:11.520 we, everything was provided for in the season we were in. 383 00:28:11.520 --> 00:28:17.320 God had us in a very intentional season of understanding of revelation, um, of 384 00:28:17.360 --> 00:28:19.360 learning to step into what he was doing. 385 00:28:19.400 --> 00:28:24.280 And so we were in that season from obedience, but as we start, as we stepped 386 00:28:24.280 --> 00:28:30.560 out of that season, um, also through obedience, um, we transitioned from, from 387 00:28:30.560 --> 00:28:34.400 getting $500 a month to over $12,000 a month. 388 00:28:34.480 --> 00:28:37.360 Now that's a big jump in 12 and six months, right? 389 00:28:37.680 --> 00:28:42.560 But the only way that happened is through the obedience to the Lord. 390 00:28:43.320 --> 00:28:46.400 The Lord wants to accelerate your wealth quickly. 391 00:28:46.680 --> 00:28:50.360 Um, but he wants to do it through obedience and he wants to do it through a 392 00:28:50.360 --> 00:28:56.120 place of taking a risk into something that might feel uncomfortable. 393 00:28:56.360 --> 00:28:56.760 Right. 394 00:28:56.960 --> 00:29:04.680 And that looks like saying, man, I don't want to just limit myself to, um, to what 395 00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:09.000 God is doing through Benji, for example, or what God is doing through this other 396 00:29:09.000 --> 00:29:12.640 person, um, that, that gives me the ability to receive wealth. 397 00:29:13.080 --> 00:29:18.440 Like I need to remember that it's the spirit of the Lord that is the one who's 398 00:29:18.440 --> 00:29:21.800 given me the ability to produce wealth, not other people. 399 00:29:22.320 --> 00:29:26.720 And I think that's a really important distinction to make is that we only got 400 00:29:26.720 --> 00:29:32.240 there because the Lord shifted the season into abundance through stepping into 401 00:29:32.240 --> 00:29:34.240 obedience and fear of the Lord. 402 00:29:34.280 --> 00:29:34.640 Right. 403 00:29:34.880 --> 00:29:37.440 This is not about some get rich quick scheme. 404 00:29:37.440 --> 00:29:38.880 This is not what that is. 405 00:29:39.080 --> 00:29:41.040 And that's not what I'm communicating to you. 406 00:29:41.320 --> 00:29:47.040 I'm communicating to you that the, uh, stepping in and obedience to what God 407 00:29:47.040 --> 00:29:52.560 wants to do in your life with a measure of faith that comes from saying, God, I 408 00:29:52.560 --> 00:29:53.640 honor what you're doing. 409 00:29:53.640 --> 00:29:57.760 I trust that you know what you're doing, that you're expanding the plans that you 410 00:29:57.760 --> 00:30:00.080 have for me and my ability to receive. 411 00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:08.640 them is actually what you have for me. Now that could be a tough pill to swallow for 412 00:30:08.640 --> 00:30:14.080 some people because some of you are going to realize that if you've got all your eggs 413 00:30:14.080 --> 00:30:20.720 in one basket, you're not probably doing what the Lord is doing. Now, there's a time and 414 00:30:20.720 --> 00:30:27.560 a season to have risk, but true wealth comes from multiple sources. It doesn't just come 415 00:30:27.560 --> 00:30:33.560 from the ways that you would anticipate or expect it to. It comes from experiencing the 416 00:30:33.560 --> 00:30:40.480 goodness of heaven, leading you into multiple risks and multiple places of obedience in 417 00:30:40.480 --> 00:30:46.320 your life. That can only be possible if you fear the Lord above fearing every place of 418 00:30:46.320 --> 00:30:51.080 man and every place of sin and every place of death that presents itself to you in your 419 00:30:51.080 --> 00:30:54.800 life. Yeah, I think that Israelites are a really 420 00:30:54.800 --> 00:30:59.480 good example of some of what Seb was just saying in that the Lord doesn't want you 421 00:30:59.480 --> 00:31:07.440 to linger in those seasons. I think there's spiritual process is really what we're talking 422 00:31:07.440 --> 00:31:13.840 about. There's a spiritual process that leads to spiritual results. There's a natural process 423 00:31:13.840 --> 00:31:19.840 that brings natural results. So the spiritual process is one of obedience, risk, faith, 424 00:31:19.840 --> 00:31:24.160 walking with the Lord. That's what it looked like for the Israelites, for anybody in the 425 00:31:24.160 --> 00:31:30.760 scriptures that did anything with God. It was obedience and then risk, faith, continuing 426 00:31:30.760 --> 00:31:36.280 to know him, getting to know him. Moses asked to know his ways so that he could honor him. 427 00:31:36.280 --> 00:31:42.400 That's the fear of the Lord. Solomon was the wealthiest man and he was asked by God what 428 00:31:42.400 --> 00:31:47.960 he wanted and he said wisdom, right? And so God added wealth. He added everything else 429 00:31:47.960 --> 00:31:52.640 to him because he had wisdom. So if God is telling us that the fear of the Lord is the 430 00:31:52.640 --> 00:31:56.120 beginning of wisdom, then we probably want to know what it looks like to live in the 431 00:31:56.120 --> 00:32:01.440 fear of the Lord because that means living in wisdom, which with Solomon meant living 432 00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:07.000 in wealth and influence and the things that God wants us to have to be able to do the 433 00:32:07.000 --> 00:32:13.120 things that he has for us to do on the earth. Not because we just want those things to have 434 00:32:13.120 --> 00:32:20.200 them, but I think the Israelites were in the wilderness wandering for way longer than they 435 00:32:20.200 --> 00:32:26.000 were meant to be. That trip was not meant to take that long. I think the wildernesses 436 00:32:26.000 --> 00:32:32.440 that a lot of Christians experience are not the Lord's will and we make all kinds of excuses 437 00:32:32.440 --> 00:32:38.760 for them, religious excuses for them, when we really need in some ways a rebuke like 438 00:32:38.760 --> 00:32:45.480 the Israelites did in love to reset us, get our eyes off of ourselves, off of our circumstances, 439 00:32:45.480 --> 00:32:53.160 back on the Lord to actually go take the promised land that's ours, that he has said, 440 00:32:53.160 --> 00:32:57.880 this is yours. This is why I'm bringing you through the wilderness, not just because I'm 441 00:32:57.880 --> 00:33:06.080 like a killjoy, because he wanted to get Egypt out of them and God into them so that they 442 00:33:06.080 --> 00:33:12.120 could possess the promised land. Because just like wealth, if you are given, we've said 443 00:33:12.120 --> 00:33:18.480 this before, if you win the lottery tomorrow, a lot of people would not actually benefit 444 00:33:18.480 --> 00:33:24.480 that much from it because they're not a container of wealth. They don't have the mindset, they 445 00:33:24.480 --> 00:33:29.320 don't have the wisdom, they don't have the authority, they don't have the whatever, and 446 00:33:29.320 --> 00:33:35.880 it actually just drains through them. And so that is the process that God took the Israelites 447 00:33:36.000 --> 00:33:43.000 through was my heart as a good father, as God, is to train and equip so that when they 448 00:33:43.000 --> 00:33:49.520 get to the promised land, they are not enslaved again inside of the promised land. They can 449 00:33:49.520 --> 00:33:53.760 have ownership inside of the promised land, they can prosper, they can have their own 450 00:33:53.760 --> 00:34:03.160 homes, create their own generational legacy, and come out of slavery. So that is kind of 451 00:34:03.160 --> 00:34:06.760 the spiritual process that begins with obedience. 452 00:34:06.760 --> 00:34:15.560 Absolutely, and I feel like we've given you guys a fire hose tonight of about 30 minutes 453 00:34:15.560 --> 00:34:21.360 of complete fire hose. And so I realize that probably everything that we've said, there's 454 00:34:21.360 --> 00:34:28.560 probably thoughts on the thoughts on the thoughts there. And I want to say this, like revelation 455 00:34:28.560 --> 00:34:34.280 is progressive. So take the time if you want to come back and watch the replay again, to 456 00:34:34.280 --> 00:34:39.920 really dive into these concepts. Ask the questions, ask yourself the real hard questions like, 457 00:34:39.920 --> 00:34:47.280 God, what am I fearing the most? Or the other way of translating that is, what am I honoring 458 00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:54.000 the most in my life right now? Am I honoring your goodness and your mercy the most? And 459 00:34:54.000 --> 00:34:59.920 my honoring your spirit of wisdom and wealth the most? Or am I honoring and fear? 460 00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:06.160 whether I have enough money or am I honoring and fearing places where 461 00:35:06.160 --> 00:35:15.240 there's insignificance or pain or heartache or you know yeah I read this 462 00:35:15.240 --> 00:35:21.080 quote I can't remember exactly how it goes but I'll find it and post it in the 463 00:35:21.080 --> 00:35:24.160 group because it was really really good and it talks about essentially the 464 00:35:24.160 --> 00:35:29.200 concept is money isn't every everything but if you have none of it money is 465 00:35:29.200 --> 00:35:37.400 everything meaning like if you have no money often money is your idol and it 466 00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:42.940 actually takes getting your eyes off of money and on to the Lord that releases 467 00:35:42.940 --> 00:35:47.080 the breakthrough in finance and you know we we've lived as missionaries before we 468 00:35:47.080 --> 00:35:53.840 get that you know like when we haven't been able to pay our bills and the 469 00:35:53.840 --> 00:35:59.080 temptation in that season to become obsessed with the need for money is 470 00:35:59.080 --> 00:36:04.960 money was everything really tempting it was everything it was all-consuming for 471 00:36:04.960 --> 00:36:10.320 a long time until we started to really get the revelation that if I'm willing 472 00:36:10.320 --> 00:36:17.840 to move in obedience with wealth to in the fear of the Lord God Jesus Christ 473 00:36:17.840 --> 00:36:23.280 the Son of God if I'm willing to walk in obedience with him and an abiding 474 00:36:23.560 --> 00:36:30.000 continual relationship with him and have him be my focus and my attention the 475 00:36:30.000 --> 00:36:36.360 spirit of wealth that comes with him is actually more able to achieve what is 476 00:36:36.360 --> 00:36:42.400 possible in the kingdom than anything else and so taking our eyes off of money 477 00:36:42.400 --> 00:36:46.640 taking our eyes off of the details it's the only thing that's going to truly 478 00:36:46.640 --> 00:36:52.760 produce life in our midst but I do realize that we've made a lot of things 479 00:36:52.760 --> 00:36:58.400 pretty open to you and there's probably some some deep dive things this is 480 00:36:58.400 --> 00:37:06.320 probably a good time to announce that Claire and I do specifically do wealth 481 00:37:06.320 -->

releases wisdom and and breakthrough 494 00:38:08.280 --> 00:38:13.680 and obedience is that you got anything else there sounds great I think we 495 00:38:13.680 --> 00:38:22.720 covered feel free to

00:38:50.680 every way spirit soul and body that that is that is why the Lord came to give us 500 00:38:50.680 --> 00:38:58.600 life and life more abundantly totally well I want to encourage you ask the 501 00:38:58.600 --> 00:39:05.720 Lord this question as you as you go as we wrap up here ask the Lord this 502 00:39:05.720 --> 00:39:14.400 question Lord where is my greatest attention and let the Lord speak to you 503 00:39:14.400 --> 00:39:19.000 about what it is ask him where's where's my greatest attention and where does it 504 00:39:19.000 --> 00:39:25.840 need to be because that's the place of breakthrough that we that we really want 505 00:39:25.840 --> 00:39:29.680 to help and see come through the Lord the spirit of wealth the spirit of 506 00:39:29.680 --> 00:39:34.400 wisdom the spirit of revelation yeah I feel like the one last thing I'll add 507 00:39:34.400 --> 00:39:38.240 with that just because it's a really good visual that I had written to kind 508 00:39:38.240 --> 00:39:43.160 of share is that you know it's it's really like setting the intention you 509 00:39:43.160 --> 00:39:47.240 know we're talking about the intentions of your heart where is your attention is 510 00:39:47.240 --> 00:39:52.080 where your intentions will be and it's really like having a bullseye you know 511 00:39:52.080 --> 00:39:57.680 on the wall and you're actually setting the intention to release the arrow and 512 00:39:57.680 --> 00:40:02.080 hit the bullseye right and so 513 00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:05.000 Where is your attention and so where are your intentions of your heart? 514 00:40:05.000 --> 00:40:08.000 And if you were to release an arrow, where does it hit? 515 00:40:08.000 --> 00:40:10.000 You know, does it hit the mark?
