I want to ask you to turn to First Chronicles 29 and put a marker at Luke Chapter 9.

All right? So we're going to begin in First Chronicles 29 and then we'll flip over to Luke Chapter 9. I want to share

with you something I shared with the staff this last week and I said to them

please pray because we have two more weeks in this series.

This message this today and the message next week.

And let me tell you what the burden of my heart is.

I'm not praying that we raise a certain amount of money in the

offering. It's not anywhere in my prayers. People have asked me, you know, what are you praying

for? Here's what I'm praying for. I'm praying that every person will catch this revelation.

That is my desire. I'm a pastor first. God always takes care of provision. I'm not worried about provision. You understand, my father, my heavenly father owns it all. That is nowhere in my thoughts. My thoughts are that you as a believer many of you are in bondage, you have

strongholds in your life, your marriage is in trouble, your health is in trouble,

all sorts of things and I know this sounds so simplistic,

but I'm telling you in my own life, when God changed me into a giver, every other area begin to change. Why? Because he takes selfishness out.

Selfishness is on the throne. Self is on the throne if you're not a giver. Here's what you're saying to God. You can have every part of me except. And when you give everything to God, including your finances, I'm telling you it will change everything in your life. I promise you. So I said to the

staff this last week I'm so burden because I'm just going to preach two more

messages and then after this I don't know when God's going to lead me to preach on this again,

but we may have a thousand people or 2,000 people that are headed for disaster,

headed for shipwreck, that somehow they continue to harden their heart to this message

because the enemy's built up strongholds. I'm telling you you have an enemy.

His name is Satan. He hates you. he does not want you to give everything to God

he does not want you to yield your finances he doesn't want you to believe us he will

build up reasons and he'll take even scripture.
