How to get through what's coming; being thankful and living by faith

Hey, good morning family. How are y'all doing today?

Well, I'm here again with my wife Diana. Hi. And we're excited to be here. We have some things on our heart. The Lord told me, he said, "Brandon, I want you to talk to my people again about the refiner's fire and where it where they are and what basically about how to get to the next level." A lot of people they think, well, it's the praying and the reading my Bible that gets me to the next level.

That is the fundamentals. Okay? We use the fundamentals of the dayto day. It's like it's just I want to say it like this. An athlete, a professional athlete does the fundamentals that gets him to being a champion at the at the game at the major game, the World Series.

But without the fundamentals, they'll never become a champion at the endgame. Okay? It's the fundamentals, the daytoday, the dayto day today that gets you to be a champion. And that's what you know, it's the major test in life. It's the refiner's fire that gets us to the next level from going from glory to glory to glory to glory.

But if you don't do the ABCs, one, two, threes, you'll never get to the pass the test. And a lot of times I thought this one time I was going through a really hard time and uh I thought, where is the Lord? I felt like everything was stripped away. I was going through a valley and it was dark and I cried myself to sleep many nights and not knowing that I was being tested. And it was the refining fire.

He is the potter. We are the clay. And we have this treasure and earthn vessels. That the excellency of the power will be known of him and not of us. We you need to understand it's it's it's him and us.

I'm just a person just like you are. But he will use you in the kingdom if you yield yourself to him.

But you have to be a vessel that's been tried. You will not walk in the greater glory and the manifest demonstrations and manifestations without being on the potter's wheel. It takes uh it's like Len Hammond had a visitation. She was talking about it one time and uh she had a manifestation of Jesus and he gave her a song that make me better, make me pure by the fire that does refine. Where the breath of God is sweeter, there his brightest glory shines.

Lift me high up to the mountain into fellowship with thee. And in that light I'll see the fountain of the blood which cleanseth me. I love that song. And it was it was a it came right out of from Jesus to her singing to her.

But she was going through a refining fire. And I'm trying to tell you all the fundamentals of life. We have those test times.

And the Lord showed me a lot of people will be tested usually every 20 years. He showed me it was it was keys and he showed me the life divided up in quarters and he show he gave me this whole thing. It was beautiful about how he test us and we go from glory to glory.

But the Monday through Fridays, Saturday, Sunday, we are we are growing each and every single day. And then when we get to those major tests, we don't even know a lot of times like he told me he said I test you all the time. And that's and that's what shapes us into the character being on that potter's wheel of that pushing on our flesh. Pushing on our flesh, making us uh molding and putting us through the fire. And it's like a refining us.

It's like gold pulling out all of the impurities. And the more you work it and you pull out those impurities, the purer the gold gets.

Okay? So, here we are as vessels that are on the potter's wheel. God is molding and making us into great beautiful pieces of art for him. And the more we realize it's not about us, it's about him working in us, the more he will be able to trust you that you realize that I'm I he is the he is the everything. I am a I'm a vessel chosen by God.

We have this treasure in earth and vessels that the excellency of the power will be known of him and not of us. Amen.

And so when we realize that, the more God is going to use you and mold you and you keep going from glory to glory in that greater outpouring. But he showed me he said cuz I because I was asking him about things. I was I said, "Lord, show me how are we going to get to this greater manifestations of what you showed me of the great glory of healings and demonstrations?" and he said, "Brandon, it's going to come through the fundamentals. It's going to come through walking in love. You've got to get down the foundation of love better." The comment section is is a test for me a lot of times, you know, dealing with people.

My son tell me things what's being said and my wife and so we have to we have we're growing all together. This has been this has been a major change of events for us. Like getting on there and taking down all of these uh false accounts saying they're me calling prophetic bigs and all these things. I don't call myself a prophet. I'm a watchman.

I'm just like you all. I pray and I tell you what I hear and what I see. I don't claim to be a prophet. I don't claim to be anything. I just want to tell you the Lord said come on YouTube and tell you tell you all that that he's coming.

And so, you know, I don't need a title. I don't need all that. All I need is you to hear that what I've done, what I'm doing is telling you what he's told me to tell you. And whether you receive that or not, it's on you.

But it, you know, but it's like coming on there and dealing with the people like this last couple of days. Diana spent literally 24 hours. She was up all night long and all day taking those accounts down after we saw that they were using uh my platform what the Lord's given me to uh solicit you all for uh orphanage that I don't fake orphanages. They're not even real. Yeah.

Fake orphanages. Mhm. Yeah. What else? Uh I don't know.

They were asking for money and I don't who knows what they were pretending it was for crypto. For Yeah.

For crypto. So they had fake they set up fake everything and they were asking for donations uh under your trying to pretend to be you and messaging people and saying message me on WhatsApp. It was awful. I am really tired today. Yeah, it was rough seeing all that.

And some of the people had 30,000 subscribers, some of them had 10,000. Some had 11,000. It was a lot of people. And they had some videos had 1.1 million views, more than I've had on my YouTube channel.

Well, all to the glory of God for those people. Hopefully, they got reached, but they're using that to uh get money for people. You know, it's like it's it's very personal to me because we have a child with special needs is overcoming to use children with special needs to try to solicit people for money. And I'm telling you, I'll never ask anybody for a dime. Never.

The Lord said, "Freely you've been given, freely you give out." He said, "If you feed my people, Brandon, they will take care of you. Never ask for anything. Always come and just give it." And I and I and I've done the best I can to tell you exactly what the Lord is telling me to warn you about the storms that are coming. A great shaking is coming. Food shortages are coming.

Uh I would say basically there birthing pains like you can't imagine the Lord had me even like what like even yesterday praying over uh American Airlines praying over the United Airlines. I don't know what I just got I saw planes flying in the sky major planes flying in the sky and I thought well this is very interesting. I don't know what this is all about but I get pieces and I said pray over the airlines.

Well, I don't know why. Is it terrorist related? I don't know, but I just know that he said pray over the airlines.

So, I get this piece and then he'll start warning me about power outages and then he'll start warning me about um food shortages and things like that and basically, you know, you could go down the fear tactic of all, you know, all the stuff that that you see and it, you know, people get into all the fear. They go in there and say, "Hey, you going to make a viral video? Talk about fear." Boy, they sure like it. I mean, I told we laugh about it. My son do, because it's like, what?

Why don't y'all want to hear about the glory more than what you want to hear about fear? We got you got to shake that all off. God is a good God, and he's a faithful God, and he's an anointed God. And he wants us to live exceedingly abundantly above all that we'd ask or think.

But I'm trying to tell you all, it's time to walk in victory about some things. It's time to lay hands on the sick and see him recover.

For us to be the light and the salt and stop walking in fear. We don't need to be walking in fear. I tell you these things, not to walk in fear, but a call to prayer to say, "Hey, listen. This is this is sounding the alarm. Sound the alarm.

Look at all these things that are coming." But they seem to be people are more into that than they are to tell you, "Hey, there's a glory coming." you know, in prayer at church tonight. We're hearing about Brother Hagen during the 1920s and some of the some of the greats that I believe, you know, changed my life just by hearing some of the stories that they did. And Pastor Chip was talking about he said that they would pray by just giving God praise during the great tribulation. Not the great tribulation. They would give God it's not the great tribulation yet, folks.

Sorry. During the during the great depression, not the tribulation, the great depression, but they would pray and they never did without food. They never went without food one time because they praise. They learn how to cultivate praise in their household. And when praises go up, blessings come down.

Okay? So I'm I want to teach you all that you've got to get into a atmosphere of thanksgiving and praise, being thankful for what the Lord has already provided in your life. You may not feel like he's done anything in your life. You may look at and go, "Well, I look at me and I don't have nothing. I'm poor as Job's turkey." But you can be thankful for something.

You start with that one thing and you get you get all up in and be thankful all day long. God, I'm able to breathe. I'm able to breathe. I took a breath out of my lungs today. I my eyes and you may be paralyzed.

My eyes moving. I can move my eyes. And you may not be able to move anything else, but you can move your eyes. Be thankful for any little thing that you and I'm telling you that's the key of the open door for the greater blessings. Being thankful.

I'm talking to myself. There's so much that I feel the Lord has done for us in the last two, three months and I and I take time and I complain about certain things and the Lord said, "Brandon, are you are can't you be grateful about one thing?" And I have to I He's He'll correct me. Oh Lord, I'm sorry. Forgive me. You've given so much to me.

I have foodoo in my belly. I have a roof over my head. I have my bills are paid. You got you can you can be give God praise for something. And when you do, blessings flow.

The more you praise him, the more blessings will flow. And I'm telling you, whenever I heard Pastor Chip talk about the great uh depression and he was saying that Brother Hagen and them never went without food because they always praised him for the little things. And for what I've seen coming, I'm talking, you think the Great Depression was bad in those story books.

For what I have seen coming, folks, this is going to make the Great Depression look like a walk in the park because this generation doesn't understand how to even grow things in a garden. They don't know how to go and do most things. They're they're so used to going through McDonald's and getting their, you know, little Happy Meal or whatever. This is a different generation than it was 100 years ago.

So, that's what I'm talking about. You've got to learn now. You've got to learn now how to live by faith now so that you're able to operate when things get rough. You can't wait until things get rough and to and then start doing the things and go, "Well, I'm we're going to start practicing it now." Practice his presence today. Practice him today.

And so, you know, tell them about that time whenever, you know, you had groceries show up as a little girl. Yeah. Um, as a child, um, we grew up really, really poor. Um, we lived in a car for a while. Um, my parents didn't take, uh, you know, help from the government or anything.

So, uh, we lived in a car for a while. We ate ketchup packets, uh, for food. Those free ketchup packets that you get out of the out of McDonald's, we ate that. We lived in the car. Um, for how long though?

Oh, for probably I would say at least a year. Mhm. Yeah, I remember I was really little. I was probably like four or five. Um maybe even younger.

Homeless. Yeah. And um I remember uh one time we were in the car, me and my older sister, we were sitting in the car and it was in a hot summer day and we were so hot. And uh we saw this soda machine in front of us. We were in the car and the soda machine was right there.

And I remember my I remember being so thirsty that I got out of the car. We got out of the car.

I said I said, "Sister, let's go over there. We Let's see about that. If we can find a quarter on the ground and maybe we can get a soda out of there." So, we got out of the car and just walked right up to that machine. And I remember uh there was no quarters, but I pushed a button and a soda came out of it. And my sister and I got so excited.

It's imprinted in my brain forever. I was We rejoiced about that. She pushed a button and another one came out.

Then I pushed another one and another one came out and we loaded our arms full of sodas and they were cold. It was the best. It was the best thing ever.

So see God knows the desires of your heart and he in your needs and I it felt like a very a very spiritual day that day. We were so like appreciative and thankful and we just rejoiced as little kids. We were out there rejoicing and going and we got enough for uh several Cokes for each of us and we then we stopped and then we were like, "Hey, let's just go back to the to the car and drink them." And it was the best day. It was the most refreshing soda I've ever had in my life. And it's it was, you know, those God moments and we just rejoiced at that at the little small things when we uh we didn't have enough uh money to pay our electric bills as kids and they were always turned off a lot of times and we didn't have food in our fridge and we would have we would pray and we would have groceries door groceries show up on our doorstep.

Uh I countless times I we just I just remember so many small things the small miracles and us being just rejoicing and being so excited about everything and um it was just a lifestyle you know even as a kid we just got so excited about everything that the Lord did. I mean big or small and you know Christmas presents Christmas presents one time. Yeah. We uh we had Christmas presents show up. Somebody came and just showed up in the middle of the night.

We were like sleeping on the floor somewhere. I vaguely remember as a kid because I was so little and I remember them showing up with Christmas presents and beautifully wrapped, just beautiful. And I remember this one of the best Christmases I ever had. And it wasn't even necessarily a whole lot of them. It was just we didn't have anything.

And so you were just we were just so thankful and appreciative. Uh countless little things like that. That I can remember. And even like and even like going in the in the in the line, we would be sitting at uh you know a gas station and my dad would run out of gas all the time we were driving the car because we didn't have any money for anything. And I remember us barely making it to a gas station one time and then someone just would pay for our gas and they would say, "You know what?

I feel like I'm supposed to pay for your gas today." I miracle after miracle. And you know, it doesn't have to be a big miracle to be a miracle. It's that God is in everything. He's in the small things. He's in the big things.

And you know, we were just being thankful for everything. It's beautiful. I love it. There's so many times, you know, even when we've been married that we didn't have nothing and we were we were trying to just figure out how to pay our electric bill. Mhm.

And Diana, we I told her, I said, "We don't have enough money this month to pay our electric bill because it was summer and our electric was higher." And when you're working for a church, we work for a church and I we made we made barely nothing. I mean, it was it was rough living on food stamps, you know. Uh I was janitor there for a long time and we struggled and um there was times whenever we got we get paid every two weeks and we would have it all spent before we got it uh by borrowing on a credit card or whatever we could do to just make it Yeah. Our bills took up our entire paycheck.

So, it would be already spent. We already know what that goes to trying to get therapy for Megan, trying to get her speech or whatever, you know, uh the government would only cover so much and uh cuz it was expensive and uh we thought, well, what are we going to do?

And so we were so desperate to try to help Megan um at that time, just trying to just find any kind of alternative uh to help her to function more because we just we wanted her to live a normal life. And um it was rough. We charged everything up. We were tens of thousands of dollars in credit card debt. And back then whenever you're making what we made, it looked like a mountain.

So we, you know, you had to file bankruptcy. You do everything you can to just get through because we didn't have food. There would be times we be like, "Man, what are we going to do?" And so, you know, there's always grandma, she'd make you a meal or buy you a pizza or surprise you. Things that God would put on her heart and she'd even know. You know, we wouldn't we've never been a people to uh give a ministry of hints or hey, we're having a hard time because we believe by faith.

We're not going to go around talking about our problems to everybody and telling them how bad you've got it because it's just like it's just like this. I try to tell y'all praying in the spirit and not let letting the devil see that he's that he's made a move on you that's working that you feel like it's beating you down keeping your head above and giving God praise for every little thing.

So I just sit on the couch just like I'm doing right now and my son can testify to this because he'd get in there with us and Diane and we God I just want to say thank you that our water bills paid tonight and I would spend my whole I'd spend my whole entire night giving God praise for the water bill. God, I thank you for the water bill. Anyway, only $100 water bill or in trash, whatever. It's not very much, but it was a lot to us. And we would take a seed and we would sew what we could.

And we didn't have a seed because Bible says, "Give and it shall be given unto you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will it give unto your business." And it was required for us to tithe our tithe at staff. And after you tithe, we didn't want to tithe because we were like, we don't have enough money to eat early.

But it was required to tithe. So we would believe by faith to get through at the next to the next week after you tithe. You think, man, you know, even if it was two 200 bucks for tithe because we didn't make much. You thinking this is a lot because it would have paid electric or maybe something, you know, but I but I trusted God and I would ask the Lord, God, show me and give me a creative idea to get wealth. And that's where I always ask him, Father, you're going to have to you're going to take care of us.

And he would always provide. He we always got through. I would sew a seed and he would I would I would use my faith. I would sew a seed and it would provide for that need. He always take care of us.

And we got to the point we started sewing a little bit more. A little bit more. And I realized that the Lord started teaching me about good ground because not all ground's going to produce. Most people don't want to hear that. And a lot of people go, "Well, that's not bu." No, no, no, no.

Some 30, some 60, and some hundredfold. And I'd always ask the Lord, "Show me where miracle good soil ground is. Show Diana and I where amazing ground is because God, I need a quick harvest like miracle grow. I need this seed to produce fast. I don't need it to be in the ground for weeks at a time and us receive six months, a year from now.

I need it tomorrow. I need a miracle tomorrow." And so I started just praying and asking him and ask show father and just pray in the spirit showing me father I thank you lord you show me good ground.

So I would take $5 and I would believe by faith for that $5 to produce for my family. I sow a dollar so $2. Whatever I had I put in the offering envelope whatever God told me show me the good ground. I tested the ground. I tested the ground.

I test the ground and I would make sure and if it and if it didn't produce real quick we didn't give there again. But I would if I start quick saw a quick return, I would go, "That's good ground, babe. Let's do that again." So, we would sew intentionally and believe God for a harvest and say, "Lord, show us what to do because we need a blessing because I but I've trusted God with all my heart, all my soul, and all my mind, all my strength. And I lean not under mine understanding." But in all thy ways acknowledge him, and he said he'd direct your path. Y and that's what we did over and again, over and again.

And there was time when we didn't have enough money. We got us a Jeep. We were so excited because we drove a long ways to because we had a cheap little rare house. Shotgun rare house. It was bad.

It was It was bad. I look back and I go, "Lord, it was it was rough." Uh snakes come up through the floor, rotten mold. You got cockroaches. It was It was awful. We lived there for a long, long time.

And God provided. And it was to the point where you my son wake up in the middle of the middle of the night and there'd be a massive black snake by his feet. Was it? Yep. It be a big old thick black snake curled up by his feet coming up through the baseboards because our floor was so bad.

And we had we had mice. We had cockroaches. It was it was here. I had to put traps out all the time, clean up things. The neighbors next door were a crack house and they had meth.

They were cooking meth so bad we couldn't open our windows up in the fall because they were cooking meth and the meth blow into our house and it would smell so bad it make you sick. So you had to keep your window shut because you couldn't keep the And so one night I was praying the Lord said deal with this and all of a sudden a massive explosion happened from the meth house and I don't know if they were hurt or anything. I don't know but they stopped cooking meth after that because the massive explosion took place next door and uh God took care of that real quick and bless their hearts. They need Jesus.

But uh and then and then one night we had these uh cocaine dealers that were two doors down from there and um we have a drug raid had a massive drug raid in the middle of the night and had all the FBI over we it looked like Christmas out there all the lights going and I thought oh I said my wife come out the front door she said remember you said oh my god she goes what's going on out there? I said, "I don't know. Shut the door quick." Cuz they were running across our front our front lawn with all their guns and everything, running and raiding these dudes with all their cocaine and drugs. Man, it was bad.

But God is faithful. It's not about the past. I'm just telling you where we come from. We were praying for them to get saved. Yeah, it was.

But they went to jail for their salvation. They did. They needed help. They're strung out on drugs, man. They were they were big drug dealers.

But math on one side, crack on the other, you know. But God but God took care of us. And we lived there for a long time. 20 years. Yeah. 20 years. We lived by faith for 20 years.

But God suddenly provided. It took us sewing seed and believing God. Sewing seed and believing God, but God provided. I'm trying to tell you all it may not happen overnight, but if you keep on keeping on and you keep on keeping on and you don't let go and you stand when they're all Golly, when you stand in there when you when all there else to do is stand there for God is a faithful God. He started giving Diana the idea, didn't he, hun?

Yeah. About selling on eBay. Yep. Yep. He Holy Ghost idea.

Tell him. Yeah. Uh, so one of those times whenever we didn't have enough money to make our bills for the month, electric. Uh yeah, it was electric. And we were going over our budget and we he said, "We have I just got laid off at the church because our pastor fell morally." Yeah.

And so he said, "We this is what we have. We have $100 to last us for the next two weeks." And I we I don't I didn't know what to do.

So I took it to God in prayer and I was I was saying, "God, we need to we need to stretch this. I need ideas for how we can do this." And that's whenever he gave me the idea for uh selling on eBay.

So I said, "Let's take that and that $100 and let's go to a thrift store and we'll buy something and you know as clothing or whatever and I think I can we the Lord's going to bless it and we will he I believe he gave me this idea. What do you think?" And he said, "Yeah, let's do it." So, we went and he uh sat in the car with the kids and I went in there and I was just going. I had no idea what I was doing. Never had I was I was a downer at that time. I told you.

I said, "This is never going to work." Yeah. I said, "What are you doing? This is our last $100." He said, "I said, but I said, if you feel the Lord told you, you feel the Lord, let's let's I support you, but he was like, I don't I just I don't know how you're going to do that." So, I went in there and I had looked up online and researched what I thought what would and you know based on what eBay this sells and what I thought would maybe the Lord was leading me to try to find.

So, I went in there and I just went down every aisle and I was praying in the spirit under my breath. I was praying in the spirit, praying in tongues and I was like, "Lord, I need your help. I need you to guide me to find what we so we can stretch it." And so, I just went and I went through everything. And it took I probably was in there for probably it was about four hours. I was in the car with Megan and there I remember thinking out thinking she ain't never coming out.

I said Lord I don't I said I don't I need your help. It was rough. Megan was really overcoming then. Yeah.

I said I need your help Lord. I have no idea what I'm doing but I really feel you leading you're you leading me to do this.

And so I went through and I went through every everything and okay I think I think I feel like the Holy Spirit told me to do that. I had no clue what I was doing. Just praying in the spirit the whole time and filled my buggy up with, you know, trying to find things and went took it, loaded it in the car and showed Brandon and he was like, "Okay, well, let's let's see how it goes." And I got a sheet out, laid all the clothes, laid each one on it, and took them both my phone. Just took my phone, took pictures of it, and then just started an eBay account. And I think I had I already had one because I had used it just to buy kids clothes, my kids clothes from there before.

And I just put it on there and loaded it up and did auctions and within a week Mhm. It was I did seven day auctions and within a week we had enough to pay our electric bill. Yeah. Enough to pay our electric bill. We had enough to pay our electric bill and have more a little extra.

Yeah. And I said, "Let's do it again." Yeah. Yeah. That that I said, "Baby, I'm sorry. I'm sorry." I said, "You were right.

I was wrong." And it was and she and we did it. Yeah. And within between May and September, we had made more than what we had made working for the church. Yeah. Just able from able to support our income.

Yeah. Cuz I had I got laid off and was told don't you know that we're not going to be able to use you anymore because the finances dried up the church after the patch for fail morally back on staff.

So yeah. And so I was like, well, it's all right. God made a way.

So then Yep. And so then it just flourished from there and I just kept doing it and then I eventually was able to quit my job there at the church too. Yeah.

So it was it was and I was able to uh homeschool because we needed we needed help doing we had a lot of things going on with Megan and everything else. So it worked out.

But what but it didn't take it didn't happen overnight. Mhm. It happened as you stand and as you sow and you believe. And God took what we thought was an impossible situation into something that was all things are possible to him that believe. It took a bulldog faith latching on and saying, "I will not give up and I will trust God." And it was her.

God used her. It wasn't me.

And then I'd start praying and I would start praying in the spirit with her. I was like, I'm going to join up with her instead of being seen against being uh let's don't be divided. Let's be let's be together.

So, I started praying in the spirit with and the Lord started showing me things in the spirit and say I'd see clothes or garments or whatever and I'd say Diana there's cuz he get used my prophetic gift and in seeing and I would see what was coming. I say listen babe at this thrift store at this place there is an Armani jacket in there. Go find that.

And the Lord said that'll pay for the rent. Yeah.

And so she would go, "Is this" and she would come in the window and because I'd sit out in the car with Megan and uh she'd pull it up and show it in the window and said like that you like, "It's there, babe. Look, it's right here." And I'd be like I'd be like, "Good job, honey." So we' get and she'd buy and list it and then lo, the Lord did exactly what he said he'd do. I provide for this. And we did that and we've done it and we've done it and we still do it.

And so, um, you build relationships and you start growing your business and the Lord's blessed our eBay and our Poshmark and Yep. And we've been doing it now for 11 12 years. Yeah. Long time.

And so, it's been it's been fruitful, but God's been faithful. And then, like I said, it took time and the Lord gives you ideas and he gives you the power to get wealth. And that's why I told you, what are you good at? It may not be eBay. It may not be computers.

You may be amazing at making uh some kind of tops that spin for kids or some kind of cakes or I had one lady say that God gave her an idea to make lemonade. Oh yeah. And blessed it. We got a testimony about a woman saying she made lemonade and God's blessing. She's going to have a vending machine vending trucks and all kinds of stuff.

God a creative idea to get wealth. But he'll speak to you and show you how to do it because God is a God of blessing and he and giving him praise for it and being thankful for it. Yep. I remember whenever I listed it, we would I would get a bid like 99 cents and I said, "Thank you, God. Thank you, Lord, for you rejoice at the little thing." And then it when it grew more, I said I'd get up every morning and check it.

I'd say, "Praise God. Look what the bid is.

Look what it is today." And you just rejoice at that. But it's easy.

But it's easy. This is where it becomes when you start seeing a flow a flow of finances or you start taking it for granted. Never get comfortable with not giving God praise. Never get comfortable without saying thank you for what he has done because it's easy to take it for granted. It's easy to look at it and say, "Oh, it's not a big deal anymore." To expect it.

To expect it. No, it's just going to happen.

No. No. God is in everything. Every good thing comes from God. Yeah.

Always take the time to be thankful for everything you have. You may be a multi. You may be watching this right now and you're saying, "Man, I've got millions in the bank. I live in the best uh neighborhood in Oklahoma. I live in Oak Tree.

This a big neighborhood in Oklahoma. I live in the Guardia. It's another big neighborhood in Oklahoma. It's big. You got all the money in the world.

I have it all by, you know, the tail. I'm not I'm I got my but you don't take time to thank God for what you do have even if you're a multi-millionaire because you become so accustomed to what you live.

But I'm trying to tell you, God, if you are going to make it in the days ahead, you've got to learn how to have a cultivation of thanksgiving because I'm telling you, hard days are coming more than what any of you all you multi-millionaires will ever You think, well, I've got enough in the bank. I'm not going to lose all. You're going to be broke that fast. I've seen it. The Lord told me there's going to be a lot of you that will be broke within a day.

In a 24-hour time frame, you're going to lose everything. Remember what I'm telling you. You better be hearing the voice of God for yourself, listening to him on a day-to-day basis.

Because if you don't, you're going to be in trouble. And you'll see the last will be first and the first will be last. And you'll be going on looking for handouts because you didn't be thankful and you didn't hear God for what's going on and what's coming. Take time daily at the feet of the father giving him praise and thanksgiving. And I'm telling you, you will lack no good thing.

Lack no good thing. He doesn't want.

He said, "Beloved, I wish above all things that you prosper and be in health even as your soul prospers." But there's a lot of you is not prosperous even in your souls. You're lacking inside. You're lacking in relationship with him. My son just told me we're at 37 minutes here. I we could talk probably an hour, but I try to keep them underneath 30 minutes for y'all.
