  1. 0:01Brothers and sisters, I would like to
  2. 0:03share with you a very important word
  3. 0:13about everything you honor, grow, and
  4. 0:15multiply. You know, sometimes you get
  5. 0:19restless with certain areas of your
  6. 0:21life. Pastor, I'm a little restless
  7. 0:24with my family, I'm a little restless
  8. 0:26with the ministry God has given me. I'm
  9. 0:28a little restless with the cell group,
  10. 0:30a little restless with my financial
  11. 0:32life. And today I would like to share
  12. 0:34with you the light of God's word. We
  13. 0:37received a word that this is the year
  14. 0:39of multiplication. And it's very
  15. 0:43important that you understand that
  16. 0:44there is a way for you to live, enjoy,
  17. 0:46and access God's multiplication in your
  18. 0:48life. And I would like to share with
  19. 0:56you a word that is a spiritual key so
  20. 0:58that you can grow, advance, and enjoy a
  21. 1:00time of growth in your life. For the
  22. 1:07last three Sundays I ministered a word
  23. 1:09preparing the church because I firmly
  24. 1:11believe that God is doing new things.
  25. 1:16God is opening new doors for us as a
  26. 1:18church. I shared this with my wife on
  27. 1:23Friday night, after I ministered and we
  28. 1:25shared, we prepared for this fast in a
  29. 1:27different way. We prepared the fast
  30. 1:32based on what we perceived God wanted
  31. 1:34to do in the church. We had many
  32. 1:38prophetic words here, we had appeals
  33. 1:40here, and God is leading us into a new
  34. 1:42time. You know, I'm a pastor, I was
  35. 1:48ordained at 28 years old, and many are
  36. 1:50pursuing ministerial careers alongside
  37. 1:52me, and I keep noticing that there are
  38. 1:54keys that unlock your life and keys
  39. 1:56that hold you back. You know, if you
  40. 2:01want to enter through a door, you need
  41. 2:03a key. And sometimes there are people
  42. 2:06who build an entire house but don't
  43. 2:07have the access key. You need to
  44. 2:11understand that there are keys in
  45. 2:12marriage, keys in raising children,
  46. 2:14keys in bearing fruit. You know, when
  47. 2:19I'm in prophetic moments, participating
  48. 2:21as a sheep in a conference, in a fast,
  49. 2:23I go to the program, Lord, I need you
  50. 2:25to give me light on the key that you
  51. 2:27are releasing these days, on God's
  52. 2:29perception of God's new thing. But
  53. 2:33there are people who sometimes come to
  54. 2:35a program, you go to a cell group, and
  55. 2:37you've become a natural person. What is
  56. 2:39a natural believer? He's natural in
  57. 2:41everything. You know, pastor, I just
  58. 2:45moved house. God wants to open a new
  59. 2:47season in your life. Don't be
  60. 2:49complacent about moving house. Don't be
  61. 2:51complacent about a job opportunity.
  62. 2:53Don't be complacent about a ministerial
  63. 2:55opportunity. These are just symbols of
  64. 2:58what God wants to do in your life. And
  65. 3:02I would like to challenge you to watch
  66. 3:03the words of the fast. God is opening a
  67. 3:07new season. You know, in the history of
  68. 3:12the church, the church advances, and
  69. 3:13those who are connected to the
  70. 3:15anointing of the church advance
  71. 3:16together. One day someone came to us
  72. 3:20and said, "Pastor, I'm teaching my
  73. 3:22children the way of God correctly, and
  74. 3:24I have a restlessness in my heart." I
  75. 3:26said, "What is it? Every morning I read
  76. 3:30a devotional with my children, a book
  77. 3:32of principles." I said, "This is
  78. 3:35self-destructive without the physical
  79. 3:37life. Because when your children become
  80. 3:41teenagers, this isn't imprinted on
  81. 3:42their lives. What leads to guarding
  82. 3:45your home is connecting your children
  83. 3:47to church life, to the purpose, to the
  84. 3:49movement of the Spirit. Your children
  85. 3:53are observing what God is, what God's
  86. 3:55purpose is, and what church is, not
  87. 3:56through devotional reading, but through
  88. 3:58your lives. My mother, when she arrived
  89. 4:03at the church, had this mindset about
  90. 4:05raising children, that the home was a
  91. 4:07place of peace, that the home was a
  92. 4:08place of joy, and that this would lead
  93. 4:10them to God's path. And my aunt also
  94. 4:14had this mindset, reading a little book
  95. 4:16to the child, closing their eyes. And
  96. 4:19then what happened? My mother
  97. 4:22understood what church is, what
  98. 4:23connection is, what purpose is, what it
  99. 4:25means to be a churchgoer, and connected
  100. 4:27the home to that. And there the
  101. 4:31children grew in the Lord. My aunt
  102. 4:34didn't. My aunt insisted that there was
  103. 4:36no need to commit, to get involved in
  104. 4:38things, and the children grew up and
  105. 4:40got lost, and everything was the same."
  106. 4:42From the church. If you want to protect
  107. 4:46your home, protect your profession,
  108. 4:47protect your financial life, be careful
  109. 4:49who your partner is. I'll say it: your
  110. 4:55financial life, the raising of your
  111. 4:57children, your ministry, and your
  112. 4:58spiritual life—you need to learn who
  113. 5:00the owner is, who owns your children,
  114. 5:02who owns your business. There are
  115. 5:07brothers here whose companies tithe,
  116. 5:08others don't. I want to tell you
  117. 5:11something. If you're going to define
  118. 5:15partners in your company, ask the owner
  119. 5:17, if God is the owner of your business.
  120. 5:23And I'd like to share with you a very
  121. 5:25important word. Everyone wants to grow,
  122. 5:29multiply, advance, be blessed. And I'd
  123. 5:34like to talk about honor in a way you
  124. 5:35haven't heard before. This was a
  125. 5:38message from Pastor Aluís. I
  126. 5:40contextualized it for our context here;
  127. 5:42he preached some time ago that
  128. 5:44everything you honor grows and
  129. 5:46multiplies. Any area of your life that
  130. 5:50isn't growing, you'll realize it lacks
  131. 5:52honor. You know, in the Bible, to honor
  132. 5:57means to bless. So, when you bless, you
  133. 6:01are honoring. When you bless the church
  134. 6:03, you are...Honoring the church. When
  135. 6:05you bless your wife, you are honoring
  136. 6:07her life. When you bless the cell group
  137. 6:10, you are honoring the cell group. And
  138. 6:12that is a spiritual key. In Hebrew,
  139. 6:16kabad means to give weight. Honor. So,
  140. 6:21I'm going to tell you something. Uh, to
  141. 6:23honor means to give weight to something
  142. 6:25. So, when you honor your home, honor
  143. 6:31your marriage, honor the church, honor
  144. 6:33your children, you are giving weight to
  145. 6:35that. And there is a promise in that
  146. 6:40which you give weight to, which is
  147. 6:41honor. That grows, multiplies, and
  148. 6:45flourishes in your life. So, if you
  149. 6:49want to experience fruitfulness, growth
  150. 6:51, you need to stop and think about this
  151. 6:53. Because sometimes you pray for your
  152. 6:57marriage, but you don't give weight to
  153. 6:59it. You pray for your cell group, but
  154. 7:02you don't give weight to it. You pray
  155. 7:05for your financial life, but you don't
  156. 7:07give weight to your financial life. And
  157. 7:10First Samuel, chapter 2, verse 30, in
  158. 7:13part B, says: "No need to project, it's
  159. 7:15not the main verse." Those who honor me
  160. 7:21I will honor, but those who despise me
  161. 7:23will be disgraced. "Look, here's a
  162. 7:26principle. If you honor, you will be
  163. 7:29honored. If you despise, you will also
  164. 7:31be despised. Everything you don't honor
  165. 7:36becomes insignificant in your life.
  166. 7:39This story, pastor, 'I don't have time
  167. 7:41for some things.' It's not that you
  168. 7:43don't have time, that it has no weight,
  169. 7:45that it's not important. 'Oh, pastor,
  170. 7:47no, I don't want to exercise.' It's not
  171. 7:49that you don't want to, that it's not
  172. 7:51important to you. But perhaps at some
  173. 7:54point you had a revelation or you had
  174. 7:55an insight and you started to pay
  175. 7:57attention to it. How many parents do
  176. 8:00this and lose their children? They
  177. 8:02start to notice their child when they
  178. 8:04are teenagers. They didn't honor the
  179. 8:07boy, didn't teach him, didn't educate
  180. 8:08him, didn't instill in him, didn't
  181. 8:10influence him. And the child grew up
  182. 8:13and I say: 'My God, now I have to pay
  183. 8:15attention.' And this word here is a
  184. 8:18word to awaken your life. A word of
  185. 8:21warning. God has called us to have a
  186. 8:25successful, blessed, and fruitful life.
  187. 8:28Say: 'Glory to God!'""We
  188. 8:31were called to bear fruit in all areas
  189. 8:33of our lives. So you need to learn to
  190. 8:36pay attention. I remember once I took a
  191. 8:42course and there was a dynamic, from
  192. 8:44zero to 25%, about the degree of
  193. 8:45attention you gave to each area of your
  194. 8:48life, financial, spiritual. And then
  195. 8:53you realize that failure is linked to a
  196. 8:55lack of dedication to something in your
  197. 8:56life. And I would like you to open your
  198. 9:00heart. What you give attention to is
  199. 9:04what your heart holds. What you grow in
  200. 9:07your life is what you give attention to
  201. 9:09. One day someone said: 'Pastor, what
  202. 9:12is the ministerial secret?'""And people
  203. 9:14look at you and see what your life is
  204. 9:16like. What's the secret to raising
  205. 9:18children? Giving your life for your
  206. 9:20children. What's the secret to
  207. 9:21leadership? Giving your life for
  208. 9:23leadership. What's the secret to
  209. 9:24prospering? Paying attention to
  210. 9:27prosperity, but sometimes laziness,
  211. 9:29lack of revelation, lack of positioning
  212. 9:31, you know? Everything you honor is
  213. 9:35strengthened. What God blesses
  214. 9:39flourishes and bears fruit. God is
  215. 9:43taking this church to a new dimension.
  216. 9:48God is taking our families to a new
  217. 9:50dimension. God is taking our financial
  218. 9:54lives to another dimension. And it's
  219. 9:58time to pay attention. There's a
  220. 10:00brother here in the church, pastor, I'm
  221. 10:02pastor, a very big financial struggle.
  222. 10:04He went into e-commerce and in one
  223. 10:06month he sold R $ 7,000. I said: 'Isn't
  224. 10:09it time for you to pay attention to
  225. 10:11what you've never done in your life and
  226. 10:13God himself is taking your life down a
  227. 10:15different path?'""But be careful not to
  228. 10:18put your life on a path where God isn't
  229. 10:19. That's why the life of a man and
  230. 10:23woman of God is a life with God, not a
  231. 10:25life of opportunities. Because that
  232. 10:28door might only be to provide for you
  233. 10:30this month, or it might be a new
  234. 10:32direction in your life. That's why our
  235. 10:35life is a life with God. Let's say,
  236. 10:38brother, be careful with opportunities.
  237. 10:40Without a life with God, it's a tragedy
  238. 10:42. And five points here: honor. Five
  239. 10:48principles of honor. To honor is to
  240. 10:51give weight to what God considers
  241. 10:52important. First Samuel, chapter 2,
  242. 10:58verse 30. God had given Eli a promise
  243. 11:01that God's presence would permeate his
  244. 11:03house every day. It's the only context
  245. 11:08in the Bible where God went back on a
  246. 11:10promise. God made a promise, and God
  247. 11:13went back on the promise. Do you know
  248. 11:16why God went back on that promise? The
  249. 11:20Bible says that Eli honored his sons
  250. 11:22more than God. How many parents honor
  251. 11:26their children more than God? They
  252. 11:28don't discipline, they don't take
  253. 11:29parenting courses, they're reading the
  254. 11:32wrong book, they're instilling
  255. 11:33principles." Wrong. How many men honor
  256. 11:36women more than God? Don't want to have
  257. 11:38problems with your sweetheart? My God,
  258. 11:42how many leaders honor their members
  259. 11:43more than God? Brothers, those who walk
  260. 11:46with me know that I'm not a little
  261. 11:48flower of Jesus, because I will
  262. 11:50position myself as a father, as a
  263. 11:51husband, as a pastor. I will not sell
  264. 11:54the principles because I don't want to
  265. 11:56have emotional problems with you. How
  266. 12:00many churches are there to massage your
  267. 12:02ego? There are studies of scents that
  268. 12:06you put in the church so that the
  269. 12:08person enters the service anesthetized,
  270. 12:09so that the pressure stays outside. But
  271. 12:13what produces anesthesia is the
  272. 12:15presence of God, it is the life of God,
  273. 12:17it is the flow of God. In Psalm 55,
  274. 12:21David was troubled, the Bible says, but
  275. 12:24at the end of the story, he found help
  276. 12:26in God. Tell your brother: "Whom do you
  277. 12:32honor more?" But in the new covenant,
  278. 12:37God no longer goes back on his promises
  279. 12:39, because he paid the entire debt. But
  280. 12:43in the new covenant there is something
  281. 12:45else, which is discipline, which has
  282. 12:47now become father. God disciplines
  283. 12:49those he loves. So, if you don't honor
  284. 12:53God in the new covenant, you will be
  285. 12:55disciplined, which is a beneficial
  286. 12:56thing until you mature. Say: "Glory to
  287. 13:00God! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!" So, a
  288. 13:03life without fruit is a life without
  289. 13:05honoring something in your life. And
  290. 13:08what is discipline? It doesn't have
  291. 13:10fruit. As long as you don't give
  292. 13:14importance to specific areas, you won't
  293. 13:15reap the fruit. One day there was a
  294. 13:21couple from a church, with many
  295. 13:23problems, and they said: "Pastor, what
  296. 13:24do you think about this?""I say, I
  297. 13:27think you should move from where you
  298. 13:29live, lower your standard of living,
  299. 13:31and give up your job. You'll lose your
  300. 13:36marriage and you'll lose your children
  301. 13:38because you prioritize your career,
  302. 13:39your business, and think you want to
  303. 13:41leave an inheritance for your children.
  304. 13:44That doesn't protect your children. Be
  305. 13:49careful because when you give things
  306. 13:50and you don't give God to your children
  307. 13:52, you're placing a completely ignorant
  308. 13:54burden that will harm your life. Learn
  309. 13:58to give God. God made a promise: Honor
  310. 14:01me more than your children. But he felt
  311. 14:05sorry for the boys. And because he felt
  312. 14:08sorry for the woman, sorry for the boys
  313. 14:10, sorry for the wife, sorry for the
  314. 14:12house. Oh, my love is crying. How many
  315. 14:16women are mothers? There are so many
  316. 14:17spoiled men because their wives have
  317. 14:19become their mothers. You're honoring
  318. 14:22your husband more than God. A woman of
  319. 14:27God knows how to lead a man to God. We
  320. 14:34need to learn to lead our children to
  321. 14:35God. To lead our spouse to God, to lead
  322. 14:38our brothers and sisters in the cell to
  323. 14:40God. Otherwise, there won't be...""
  324. 14:44There's no honor in this. Once, a
  325. 14:49couple started coming to church who
  326. 14:50lived together but weren't married, and
  327. 14:52they had an intimate life. One day,
  328. 14:55when they returned home, the man
  329. 14:57grabbed his wife and said, 'Don't touch
  330. 14:59me. From today on, we are no longer
  331. 15:02married. We each have our own room, and
  332. 15:05we won't take communion. This is wrong.
  333. 15:08Don't come with stories about wanting a
  334. 15:09wonderful wedding. We are in sin, and
  335. 15:11our children are growing up, and a
  336. 15:13wrong principle is emerging. Until we
  337. 15:15get married, until we resolve things,
  338. 15:17there's no more intimate life.' In a
  339. 15:19month, they got married. They are
  340. 15:21leaders here in the church. Because a
  341. 15:23woman understood: 'My body is holy.'
  342. 15:27When you understand that your children
  343. 15:29are not yours, the Bible says that
  344. 15:30children are not your inheritance.
  345. 15:33Children are God's inheritance. And who
  346. 15:36do you think you are to control your
  347. 15:38children? 'I want him to be a doctor.'
  348. 15:41Who do you think you are? What does God
  349. 15:44want your child to be? 'I want him to
  350. 15:47be an entrepreneur,' and I'm teaching
  351. 15:49him to be careful." Never influence
  352. 15:52your child without asking their father
  353. 15:54what God wants for their future.
  354. 16:02Someone once said, "Pastor, your wife
  355. 16:04preaches so well, and she's influential
  356. 16:06and everything." When I married her,
  357. 16:08she was a woman going through a lot of
  358. 16:10crisis. I said, "God, before I start
  359. 16:12this marriage here, answer me something
  360. 16:14. I'm surrounded by many pastors. There
  361. 16:17are pastors 'wives who only serve their
  362. 16:19husbands. There are others who have no
  363. 16:20one for ministry. About my wife, God,
  364. 16:23what do you have for the future?
  365. 16:25Because I'm not going to nag her, I'm
  366. 16:27not going to invest if the future
  367. 16:28doesn't align with her; I need
  368. 16:30agreement." And God told me about her
  369. 16:32future. And based on what God told me
  370. 16:34about her future, I started talking to
  371. 16:36her, influencing her, and guiding her.
  372. 16:39Don't try to make your son a pastor if
  373. 16:41God has chosen you to be a doctor. And
  374. 16:43don't try to make your son a doctor. If
  375. 16:45God has called him to be a pastor, he
  376. 16:47won't cause trouble with the business
  377. 16:49owner. The church isn't mine; the
  378. 16:54church belongs to God. I decided not to
  379. 16:59preach here last night and on Saturday
  380. 17:01mornings because God told me, "It's not
  381. 17:03for you to preach. I want to speak to
  382. 17:06the church through your wife and Pastor
  383. 17:08Rodrigo." Hallelujah! How are you? And
  384. 17:13if God tells you that you won't be the
  385. 17:15next cell leader, that you won't be the
  386. 17:16next desolator, that's okay. He is the
  387. 17:19owner. He owns everything. A life of
  388. 17:23peace is understanding what God has for
  389. 17:25your life. So many people are
  390. 17:28struggling, don't struggle. Learn to
  391. 17:31live in peace, aware of what God has
  392. 17:33for you. Say: "Glory to God! Hallelujah
  393. 17:36! The Bible says:" Those who honor me,
  394. 17:40I will honor. "It's a return of the
  395. 17:44weight you give to something. Matthew
  396. 17:486:21 says:" For where your treasure is,
  397. 17:51there your heart will be also. "Our
  398. 17:56attention reveals where our heart is.
  399. 18:00Don't come with that story. Where your
  400. 18:02attention is, there is your heart.
  401. 18:04There are many pastors in the church,
  402. 18:06many workers, many freeloaders. And I
  403. 18:09keep seeing where the hearts of these
  404. 18:10people are. There are brothers who give
  405. 18:13their lives completely for others, not
  406. 18:15others. I'm a bit like this, I'm a
  407. 18:18young child, difficulty isn't about
  408. 18:20context, it's about passion. Why is
  409. 18:24there a 24-hour gym on the corner
  410. 18:26that's packed at 5 AM? But brother, you
  411. 18:29exercise, but you don't pray, you don't
  412. 18:31want to lead. Start a cell group at 5
  413. 18:34AM. You who say you don't have time to
  414. 18:35be a cell group leader and take care of
  415. 18:37your body,
  416. 18:39you'll arrive in eternity muscular,
  417. 18:41without souls. Proverbs 3: 9 says:"
  418. 18:50Honor the Lord with your possessions. "
  419. 18:53Honor involves priority. Once someone
  420. 18:57gave an offering here at church of R $
  421. 18:5910,000. It's hard to mention the amount
  422. 19:01, but during fasting. But he's a simple
  423. 19:04brother, with a modest car. And another
  424. 19:08once gave R $ 60,000, but the other's R
  425. 19:10$ 60,000 is just a pittance. What did I
  426. 19:13understand? The one who gave R $ 10,000
  427. 19:16planted life in the church. You know?
  428. 19:18Giving money to the church is one thing
  429. 19:20, giving an offering is another. It's
  430. 19:23completely different. Being married is
  431. 19:27one thing; having a marriage is another
  432. 19:29. It's different. Having children is
  433. 19:33one thing; raising them God's way is
  434. 19:35another. It's a revelation of the
  435. 19:39importance of what you're involved in.
  436. 19:45Where have you placed your possessions,
  437. 19:47your heart, your life? It's strange. I,
  438. 19:51a pastor, won't go to church today. But
  439. 19:53why won't you go to church today? It's
  440. 19:55a job I have. It's not a sin to work.
  441. 19:58But think about it for a moment. You
  442. 19:59worked Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
  443. 20:01Thursday, Friday, Saturday. And what if
  444. 20:03you also work an hour and a half on
  445. 20:05Sunday? Because you can be rich, but
  446. 20:08don't let wealth prevent you from being
  447. 20:10rich in God's purpose. God has a
  448. 20:14Porsche for you, a mansion,
  449. 20:16million-dollar apartments. Do you know
  450. 20:19why? To receive people, to preach the
  451. 20:22gospel, to witness. May your offering
  452. 20:25not be from what's left over, but from
  453. 20:27what you value. There are brothers and
  454. 20:30sisters who don't tithe, but why? The
  455. 20:32church isn't important. Pastor Aluísio
  456. 20:34says:" Brothers and sisters who don't
  457. 20:36tithe should look for another church to
  458. 20:37attend, because deep down they distrust
  459. 20:39this church or the pastor. But look for
  460. 20:41a place you trust. Why? Because tithing
  461. 20:43is a place of protection. Tithing is a
  462. 20:45divine principle. I'm just finishing my
  463. 20:50fast, brothers and sisters. Do you know
  464. 20:52what honor is? Honor isn't just being
  465. 20:55present with your body absent. I have a
  466. 20:59friend I took care of a few years ago.
  467. 21:01He's a pastor, he was a youth pastor,
  468. 21:03and his father left him an inheritance
  469. 21:06of many, many, many millions. It's many
  470. 21:08millions for him. And he's a very
  471. 21:11detached pastor. And his father was
  472. 21:14between life and death here in São
  473. 21:16Paulo, in the hospital. And I had a
  474. 21:19meeting here in São Paulo with pastors
  475. 21:21from outside São Paulo. He couldn't be
  476. 21:23there because he was with his father.
  477. 21:25It's legitimate. Suddenly, there's a
  478. 21:29break, and he sends me a message:'
  479. 21:31Pastor, forgive me, but I, of my own
  480. 21:33free will, contacted the pastor there
  481. 21:35at your church. '"In the meeting, I
  482. 21:37asked him to turn on the camera, and
  483. 21:39I'm crying. God spoke to me about this,
  484. 21:41this, this. Here are all the notes I
  485. 21:43took. I wanted to schedule a chat with
  486. 21:45you online during the break while my
  487. 21:46mother goes up to the hospital, to her
  488. 21:48room here. And there were brothers in
  489. 21:50my meeting on WhatsApp, on Instagram.
  490. 21:52There are brothers here, WhatsApp for
  491. 21:54work, Instagram, what are they doing
  492. 21:56here? Give weight to this for 2 hours.
  493. 22:03A generation more connected and more
  494. 22:05disconnected from the present world.
  495. 22:08Families are on their cell phones at
  496. 22:10home, no longer eating together because
  497. 22:12that no longer has value. What has
  498. 22:14value now is technology. This pastor,
  499. 22:18whose father was between life and death
  500. 22:20, became the pastor of the church. God
  501. 22:22raised him up globally. Why? He gave
  502. 22:25weight to what God gave weight to, it
  503. 22:27was God's purpose. Tell me, brother,
  504. 22:31where is your attention these days?
  505. 22:37Many couples, many believers, they live
  506. 22:39without a sense of belonging. He opens
  507. 22:42his home, but he's not a host. He gives
  508. 22:45money, but he's not an offering giver
  509. 22:47at church. He's married, but that
  510. 22:49marriage doesn't matter to him. Because
  511. 22:51if God asks you to give up something,
  512. 22:53he doesn't. He's worried about the
  513. 22:54future. Man, you have to be the
  514. 22:56provider. Be careful that you provide
  515. 23:00consequences. I am a youth pastor
  516. 23:03worldwide. There are thousands of needy
  517. 23:06young people, from parents who work,
  518. 23:08who are entrepreneurs all day and have
  519. 23:10no legacy. Because for the father,
  520. 23:13that's not important. The church takes
  521. 23:14care of it, society takes care of it,
  522. 23:16the teacher takes care of it, the
  523. 23:17church takes care of it. That's not it.
  524. 23:20The church has no responsibility for
  525. 23:22its children. The secret to success is
  526. 23:30defining what is important and giving
  527. 23:32weight to what is important. Don't
  528. 23:37start giving weight when you lose your
  529. 23:43selfishness. Jesus interacted with
  530. 23:46three groups of people. Let's say: the
  531. 23:50crowd, the occasional follower, and the
  532. 23:52disciples. Who is the crowd? I only go
  533. 23:57to be blessed. Who is the occasional
  534. 24:01follower? Who is the crowd? I go when I
  535. 24:03want to. When there's no work, when
  536. 24:06there's nothing, I go. And the
  537. 24:11occasional follower, occasionally he
  538. 24:13goes, but if he is bothered by his
  539. 24:15personal agenda, he won't go. The rich
  540. 24:21young man said," I am your disciple, I
  541. 24:23keep the commandments. "Jesus perceived
  542. 24:27that he was, but his heart wasn't.
  543. 24:30Jesus said," Give up everything and
  544. 24:32follow me. "The Bible says he was
  545. 24:34saddened because he had a lot of money.
  546. 24:38Jesus never owes anything to anyone. If
  547. 24:42someone cheats you, I'll say: God will
  548. 24:44repay you with interest.
  549. 24:49And the disciples are like that, you
  550. 24:51know? The hen and the pig decided to
  551. 24:54open a hamburger restaurant. The hen
  552. 24:57says," I'll contribute the egg. "And
  553. 24:59the pig said," Wow, I'll go in with the
  554. 25:01bacon then. "Look at the occasional
  555. 25:05follower and the disciple. With all due
  556. 25:07respect, the chicken is the occasional
  557. 25:09follower. And the pig is the disciple.
  558. 25:13Either you go in with your life, or you
  559. 25:15go in occasionally, but remain at peace
  560. 25:17. God always calls multitudes to deeper
  561. 25:22waters. God is calling you to deeper
  562. 25:26waters.
  563. 25:28I hope this word is not condemning you
  564. 25:30or accusing you. I hope this word is
  565. 25:33warning you. I preached a very
  566. 25:36important message here on Friday,
  567. 25:38perhaps one of the most important I've
  568. 25:39ever preached in my life. When Elijah
  569. 25:44told that woman who had practically
  570. 25:46nothing," Make a cake for me first. "
  571. 25:50What Elijah was showing was the New
  572. 25:51Testament, teaching that woman, with
  573. 25:53the little she had, to seek Him first."
  574. 25:56No, I tithe. If there's anything left
  575. 25:59over, I'll lead if I have time. I'll
  576. 26:03live in a house near the church if it's
  577. 26:04cheap. Pastor, I found a house 20 km
  578. 26:08away, it will be my own. "You are
  579. 26:11distancing your life from God's purpose
  580. 26:13. The Bible says that Lot was building
  581. 26:18his life feeling like Sodom, feeling
  582. 26:19like the plain. You know when you're
  583. 26:23building your life towards a place that
  584. 26:24will kill you? One day I said to my
  585. 26:26brother," Brother, I'm worried about
  586. 26:28you. "What's wrong? You're prospering,
  587. 26:30and I realize that prosperity is making
  588. 26:32you dysfunctional. It will cost you
  589. 26:35dearly in the medium term. I praise God
  590. 26:40for prosperity that leads you to be
  591. 26:42more of a tither, more of an offerer,
  592. 26:44more passionate about your wife, more
  593. 26:45caring for your family, more of...
  594. 26:47Because if your prosperity prevents you
  595. 26:49from leading, be careful. Read the
  596. 26:53story of Joseph with Moses, with
  597. 26:54Pharaoh. The first proposal that
  598. 26:57Pharaoh made to Moses is the same one
  599. 26:59the devil makes. He opens doors for you
  600. 27:02, prospers you so that you commit the
  601. 27:04minimum. This affects your house and
  602. 27:06your life. I preached this a few years
  603. 27:09ago. I'm warning you in the light of
  604. 27:12God's word. Who are you with Jesus and
  605. 27:16who are you with the church? I have
  606. 27:20pastors. In every group there is a
  607. 27:23multitude, occasional followers, and
  608. 27:24disciples. You know...Brothers and
  609. 27:26sisters, leaving is nothing new to me,
  610. 27:28because they no longer belong. Imagine
  611. 27:30wanting to be a doctor, but you don't
  612. 27:32like blood? The worst tragedy is a
  613. 27:35couple where each loves different
  614. 27:37things. It's a tragedy because they'll
  615. 27:39never build anything together. They'll
  616. 27:42build independent projects in life.
  617. 27:44It's bad to be in church and have a
  618. 27:46different direction in your life.
  619. 27:47Everyone's fasting, and you're just
  620. 27:49playing around. Everyone's preparing
  621. 27:52for baptism, and you're traveling. It's
  622. 27:55not a sin to travel. It's not a sin.
  623. 27:57Brothers and sisters, I went to Maceió
  624. 27:59with my wife, I went to Porta de
  625. 28:01Galinhas with my children. Everything
  626. 28:03paid for by Latã. Hallelujah. The
  627. 28:06Bible says there's a time for
  628. 28:07everything. But I'll tell you something
  629. 28:09. A man of God named David, the Bible
  630. 28:12says that in the times when kings went
  631. 28:14to war, David thought:" I've prospered.
  632. 28:18"I'll sit on my laurels, I'll stay home
  633. 28:20, I'll just watch the game. It was on
  634. 28:22that day that he tarnished his entire
  635. 28:24life's legacy. Second principle, honor
  636. 28:29prepares the environment. To multiply.
  637. 28:33First, multiplication is linked to what
  638. 28:35you give weight to. Give weight to what
  639. 28:39you desire. Dear friend, if you are an
  640. 28:42entrepreneur, you will learn to be an
  641. 28:44entrepreneur in God's way. You will
  642. 28:46lead your company to tithe, you will
  643. 28:48preach the gospel to your employees,
  644. 28:49you will open a cell group. Oh, I don't
  645. 28:52have time. Open a cell group in your
  646. 28:54company, an embryonic cell group. Oh,
  647. 28:58pastor, I can't lead. Lead where you
  648. 29:01are, in your school, in your company,
  649. 29:03with your employees. This week I even
  650. 29:06have an online meeting with a company,
  651. 29:08with employees. The businessman isn't
  652. 29:11even from the church, but he admires my
  653. 29:13words. He invited me and my wife. A
  654. 29:18wonderful honor, an accounting firm,
  655. 29:19he's someone who understood, and his
  656. 29:21company tithes here, he doesn't even
  657. 29:23attend church here. Brothers and
  658. 29:28sisters, we have tithers here who don't
  659. 29:30attend church here because they can't.
  660. 29:33They live in another country, in
  661. 29:34another state, but they hear the word
  662. 29:36and share it and take online courses.
  663. 29:40You realize that the problem isn't
  664. 29:42distance, it's belonging. Second In
  665. 29:52this aspect, honor prepares that
  666. 29:53environment. Matthew 14:19. And having
  667. 30:00commanded the multitude to sit down on
  668. 30:02the grass, he took five loaves and two
  669. 30:04fish. Looking up to heaven, he blessed
  670. 30:08them. Pastor, what kind of environment
  671. 30:11is this that I have to prepare? An
  672. 30:12environment of gratitude. John 6:11.
  673. 30:16Jesus took the loaves and, having given
  674. 30:18thanks. John 6:23. However, other boats
  675. 30:24had come to Bierades near the place to
  676. 30:26eat bread, the Lord having given thanks
  677. 30:27. Give thanks for your salary before
  678. 30:32complaining about it. There are many
  679. 30:35ways to complain. Go to Angola, go to
  680. 30:37Mozambique so you understand how rich
  681. 30:39you are. Stop complaining about your
  682. 30:42cell leader. Stop complaining about the
  683. 30:44church. There are many ways to complain
  684. 30:46. There is complaining in Portuguese
  685. 30:48and complaining in the heart. Just five
  686. 30:51loaves and two fish. He prepared an
  687. 30:53environment. Be grateful for your wife.
  688. 30:57Be grateful. You know, you will hardly
  689. 31:01see God multiply something you despise.
  690. 31:04You want to have a man of God by your
  691. 31:06side, start giving him importance.
  692. 31:09Praise him, honor him, value his life.
  693. 31:14You Do you want to have a blessed cell
  694. 31:15group? What about these carnal people?
  695. 31:20Oh brothers, my pastors aren't exactly
  696. 31:22Jesus's little flowers, but I decided
  697. 31:24to only look at quality and honoring
  698. 31:26what gives weight, because if I look at
  699. 31:28what's natural, it won't work, there
  700. 31:30won't be an environment for
  701. 31:31multiplication. Once, I was visiting a
  702. 31:36pastor from a church over there, and he
  703. 31:38was in shock." The people in your
  704. 31:41church are so happy, so lighthearted.
  705. 31:45What's that all about? "I said," Can I
  706. 31:47be honest? "I decided to look at them
  707. 31:49as God looks at them. When you affirm,
  708. 31:54transmit grace, you're no good for
  709. 31:56anything new, you haven't succeeded.
  710. 32:01That's not God's way; no foul words
  711. 32:03should come out of your mouth, only
  712. 32:05words of grace. You are loved, you are
  713. 32:09blessed. It will work out. You can do
  714. 32:13it. You have so many gifts. What are
  715. 32:17you doing with your life? God has
  716. 32:19something so precious for you. We have
  717. 32:23to be people full of grace, full of
  718. 32:25life, happy people. To despise means to
  719. 32:30diminish, and to honor means to magnify
  720. 32:33. Do you diminish or promote what
  721. 32:36surrounds you? If you watch history and
  722. 32:43The biographies of great men in the
  723. 32:45secular world, like, I don't know if
  724. 32:47you've seen that movie, *The Children
  725. 32:49of Francisco*, he decided to honor the
  726. 32:51environment, the land of his children,
  727. 32:53so that his children would see life in
  728. 32:54a lighter way. With five loaves of
  729. 32:59bread, you feel like killing that crowd
  730. 33:01. When your child doesn't respond the
  731. 33:04way you believe, your father, whoever
  732. 33:06he is, may the word of life, of grace,
  733. 33:08come from his mouth. May God change the
  734. 33:13lenses of your eyes. Third aspect, what
  735. 33:17you focus on is what will grow. The 12
  736. 33:21spies saw the land exactly as Joshua
  737. 33:23and Caleb did. But Joshua and Caleb
  738. 33:27focused on the solution. The spies
  739. 33:31focused on the problems. So, in your
  740. 33:35marriage, in your cell, in the church,
  741. 33:37with money, don't look at the problem,
  742. 33:39because you will become discouraged.
  743. 33:43Look at the solution, look at the
  744. 33:44future, look at the possibilities. Stop
  745. 33:48watching videos of misfortune. Listen
  746. 33:52to videos of grace. You don't need to
  747. 33:54watch any videos to realize that this
  748. 33:56world already belongs to the evil one.
  749. 34:00You would run away. Behind whom? How
  750. 34:04many people know the singer Red da Nés
  751. 34:06? He enters my house, enters my life,
  752. 34:09messes with my structure. He's a
  753. 34:15believer and suffered an accident and
  754. 34:16almost died. And many evangelical
  755. 34:19pastors were telling him," Réis, you
  756. 34:21sinned, didn't you? Did you tithe this
  757. 34:24month? Confess your hidden sin. "And he
  758. 34:28was becoming more and more oppressed.
  759. 34:31You know when even the dog knows you've
  760. 34:32done wrong? When I get home, when the
  761. 34:35dog doesn't greet me, I already know,
  762. 34:37he peed. He shouldn't have. He doesn't
  763. 34:40even say," Why did you pee there? "He's
  764. 34:42already condemned, poor thing. Why
  765. 34:44would you finish killing your husband
  766. 34:46if he already knows he did wrong? Why
  767. 34:49kill your siblings if you already know
  768. 34:51you did wrong? Some time ago I gave, I
  769. 34:53gave a pastor here the runaround for
  770. 34:54almost a month, because he was already,
  771. 34:56he himself was already condemned. I
  772. 34:58didn't, I only did it like that, okay?
  773. 35:03Because I already knew, I remember the
  774. 35:05pastor. Josimar, pastor, talk to me,
  775. 35:07disciple me, tell me, Josmar, I'm not
  776. 35:09going to say anything because life is
  777. 35:12tearing you apart. I'll only make your
  778. 35:15problem worse. When someone is going
  779. 35:19through a time of tribulation, they
  780. 35:20don't finish killing, bam, good heavens
  781. 35:22, your husband is exhausted, tired,
  782. 35:24you're going to finish killing him and
  783. 35:26not receive him with his nightgown,
  784. 35:28make a pudding. Faith is not a feeling.
  785. 35:34My hair even flew off here. Hallelujah,
  786. 35:43dear. You have to be grateful for your
  787. 35:47hair, because I don't like it. Ah, but
  788. 35:49better than not having it, right?
  789. 35:52Hallelujah. So you need to focus. Focus
  790. 35:57. The worst church in the New Testament
  791. 36:01was the church in Corinth. It was a
  792. 36:03problematic church. The brothers would
  793. 36:05leave communion drunk. It was brother
  794. 36:09taking brother to court. And Paul said:
  795. 36:13" I praise God for the precious
  796. 36:15brothers of this church. You will never
  797. 36:21be successful if you don't see as God
  798. 36:23sees. This son of mine who doesn't want
  799. 36:28to know anything. It will be like this.
  800. 36:31God built all things with the word. "
  801. 36:36When you see a flaw, don't talk about
  802. 36:37the flaw itself, talk about what you
  803. 36:39believe about the flaw. Many pastors
  804. 36:44have cared for me over the years, but I
  805. 36:46won't lie to you. Pastor Wilson managed
  806. 36:50to see what God had in store for me.
  807. 36:55And that's why I've gotten this far,
  808. 36:57because someone saw what God had for my
  809. 36:58life. When you find someone who can see
  810. 37:03treasure where there is none, stick
  811. 37:07with that person, because one day that
  812. 37:09person will come along. I'm going to
  813. 37:12have this cell group leader now,
  814. 37:13hallelujah, with my wife. And I'll tell
  815. 37:16you something. So many precious people,
  816. 37:19but with so many difficulties. There
  817. 37:22are no perfect people. Yesterday a
  818. 37:24pastor sent me a message:" Pastor, I'm
  819. 37:26shocked, I met with two leaders, "he
  820. 37:28said:" Oh, so many problems? "I learned
  821. 37:30something in ministry. Your problem is
  822. 37:32insignificant to me. I'm going to take
  823. 37:35you to the power of God, who can change
  824. 37:37your problems. I won't be sad anymore
  825. 37:38because of your problems. I'm going to
  826. 37:40introduce Christ to you. That's how the
  827. 37:42church grows and advances. You are a
  828. 37:44cell group leader. People come into
  829. 37:46your cell who are divorced, separated,
  830. 37:48widowed, oppressed, in debt, who have
  831. 37:50fought with their aunt, with that
  832. 37:52person. You know who the most
  833. 37:55complicated people are in any church?
  834. 37:57Those who have money, because they have
  835. 37:59problems, but they don't want to seek
  836. 38:00God, they don't solve them. That's why
  837. 38:03Jesus said, it's easier, let it go.
  838. 38:07Jesus.
  839. 38:08Focus. Hebrews 12. Looking intently
  840. 38:13means without wavering. Look at the
  841. 38:17positive point. Without wavering. God
  842. 38:20is difficult. This guy is crazy. Look
  843. 38:23at this member of my cell. Look
  844. 38:26intently at him. And the consequence of
  845. 38:29that is that you look as God looks. I
  846. 38:32told a story here on Friday about
  847. 38:33Pastor Igor's mother, who started the
  848. 38:35church with me, and said:" Pastor, the
  849. 38:37people of Cachoeirinha are very poor,
  850. 38:39stop saying they can prosper because
  851. 38:41look at their life context. "I said,"
  852. 38:44No, I couldn't see it the way you see
  853. 38:46it. I only see prosperous people,
  854. 38:49blessed people, beautiful people. And
  855. 38:51the richest people in this region will
  856. 38:52be the brothers and sisters of the
  857. 38:53church. We will have, we will rise like
  858. 38:55this, like this, like this. "She
  859. 38:57remained silent. I said," I just want
  860. 38:59to ask a favor. Don't speak what you
  861. 39:00see. Can you connect with me and start
  862. 39:03seeing and speaking what I believe? "A
  863. 39:05Sunday later I made an appeal. There
  864. 39:07were two entrepreneurs in the church.
  865. 39:09Today we are more than 500
  866. 39:11entrepreneurs in this church. But why?
  867. 39:15Because someone decided to believe in
  868. 39:17seeing what God sees. Look at what God
  869. 39:21has given you in the right way. Amen.
  870. 39:26Brothers and sisters. Joshua and Caleb
  871. 39:30saw things the way God saw them.
  872. 39:34Inevitably, what you see is what you
  873. 39:36will have. Do you want to win? Be
  874. 39:42filled with God and go to the end
  875. 39:44seeing as God sees. Stop looking at
  876. 39:50your flaws, your frailties, your
  877. 39:52weaknesses, your anxieties. The secret
  878. 39:58is to never take your eyes off the One
  879. 40:00who called you, because the One who
  880. 40:01called you knew your imperfections. But
  881. 40:06He invited you to walk on the sea and
  882. 40:08not take your eyes off Jesus. Fourth
  883. 40:12aspect, honor transforms relationships.
  884. 40:15How to relate through honor, pastor?
  885. 40:17Ephesians 5:33. The wife Respect your
  886. 40:21husband, and husbands must love their
  887. 40:23wives. Exodus 20:12. Honor your father
  888. 40:27and mother. Philippians 2: 3.
  889. 40:30Considering others superior to yourself
  890. 40:32. You can only consider someone
  891. 40:35superior to you if you are humble. I
  892. 40:39disagree. For God's sake. You know when
  893. 40:41you have nothing, everything is good.
  894. 40:43But when you start to prosper, you
  895. 40:45become very critical." Look at this
  896. 40:49food here, I've eaten better. "" Oh,
  897. 40:51this pastor, I've heard better. "" Oh,
  898. 40:53this cell group, I've had better. "Be
  899. 40:59careful that you may grow in everything
  900. 41:01, but with a humble heart." Oh, I'm
  901. 41:05going to change. "Change companies,
  902. 41:07change cell phones, change cells.
  903. 41:09Change. Keep changing because you are
  904. 41:11so wonderful. You are so wonderful.
  905. 41:13There's a very rich businessman who
  906. 41:14used to have a television program, and
  907. 41:16I was listening to a podcast, and he
  908. 41:18said:" I married a woman much younger
  909. 41:20than me. I'm a rich, successful guy,
  910. 41:22but I made it clear that I wouldn't
  911. 41:23accept five things. "I don't want a dog
  912. 41:27because my house isn't a mobile urinal;
  913. 41:29there won't be air conditioning at 6 PM
  914. 41:31, in the cold, in any season." I told
  915. 41:35her, he's so wonderful that anyone
  916. 41:37marrying him has to be just like him.
  917. 41:39How many people think they're wonderful
  918. 41:41? No, for someone to have a say in my
  919. 41:42life, they have to be like this, have
  920. 41:44to be like that, have to be like that.
  921. 41:46Oh, my God. So protocol-driven. For
  922. 41:56God's sake. Tell me, brother, is your
  923. 42:00standard too high for you to consider
  924. 42:02someone? Oh, how my wife doesn't
  925. 42:11understand me. My husband doesn't, no.
  926. 42:13Consider, consider your wife with
  927. 42:17abilities you don't have. Consider your
  928. 42:21husband with abilities he doesn't have,
  929. 42:23because there will be honor in that
  930. 42:24relationship. One learns from the other
  931. 42:27. I flow a lot in the prophetic and
  932. 42:30inspirational spirit, and my wife flows
  933. 42:32more in teaching. Now she's more
  934. 42:36prophetic, and I'm more in teaching too
  935. 42:38. I can't disregard her gift. She also
  936. 42:43can't disregard the gift God gave me.
  937. 42:46We're going to have a meeting with God
  938. 42:47for couples one of these days. We're
  939. 42:49going to talk about high-performance
  940. 42:51couples. What is a high-performance
  941. 42:53couple? "High performance? They are two
  942. 42:57humble people who understood how to
  943. 42:59form a partnership and combine their
  944. 43:03gifts. Oh, I'm going to fire the
  945. 43:07employee. I'm going to fire your
  946. 43:10partner's wife. I'm going to fire the
  947. 43:14woman who works at home. I mean, then,
  948. 43:17and your wife, when she burns the pan,
  949. 43:19are you going to fire her or just give
  950. 43:21her a dirty look? Belonging,
  951. 43:25relationship, forgiveness, heart. Say:"
  952. 43:31Glory. "It's easier, it's easier to
  953. 43:34lack patience than to consider. Say,
  954. 43:38brother, consider others superior to
  955. 43:40yourself. You know when someone enters
  956. 43:42the cell and speaks? Think like this:"
  957. 43:44What is he talking about? He doesn't
  958. 43:45know. I know much more than him. He
  959. 43:47didn't watch the news today. "Then you
  960. 43:49shut yourself off from that. Consider.
  961. 43:56It's so good to have older brothers
  962. 43:58here in the church, precious brothers,
  963. 43:59brothers who have a history, brothers
  964. 44:01we can listen to. I saw a study a while
  965. 44:06ago that uh uh the generation
  966. 44:07disregards the elderly so much because
  967. 44:09of technology. But I'll tell you
  968. 44:12something. Technology is not above the
  969. 44:17word. Listen to the elders' life
  970. 44:20stories, their legacies. Oh, how good
  971. 44:23it is, how good it is. Give weight,
  972. 44:27give honor, give gifts. And the last
  973. 44:32aspect, choose to look to Christ.
  974. 44:36Choose to give weight to Christ. 2
  975. 44:37Corinthians 3:18. But we all, with
  976. 44:42unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror
  977. 44:44the glory of the Lord, are being
  978. 44:46transformed. When I give weight to God,
  979. 44:52weight in admiring God, weight in
  980. 44:54knowing God, weight in flowing in God,
  981. 44:56weight in being filled with God, I am
  982. 44:58transformed. Some people think, no,
  983. 45:01I'll read a little book at home at
  984. 45:03night, no, that doesn't transform you.
  985. 45:05It's about contemplating, admiring,
  986. 45:09giving weight. You resemble what you
  987. 45:15contemplate, you know? Whoever loves
  988. 45:18something very much, resembles that
  989. 45:20thing. Whoever loves football,
  990. 45:23resembles football. He knows the
  991. 45:25players 'names. If you like anything,
  992. 45:29that's your life. What you do may be
  993. 45:36secondary, but God's eternal purpose
  994. 45:38should be your divine priority. Psalm
  995. 45:4534: 5 says:" Look and be enlightened
  996. 45:53without faith. "It is impossible to
  997. 45:55please God. Honor is an expression of
  998. 45:58faith. When we give weight to the word,
  999. 46:03the promises, the presence of God, we
  1000. 46:05are declaring that we trust Him more
  1001. 46:07than the circumstance. And I wanted to
  1002. 46:11end my message talking about two people
  1003. 46:13. You know, I told you that the word"
  1004. 46:17honor "means to give weight. My
  1005. 46:22daughter is here. What she likes most
  1006. 46:24is that her dad reads the devotional to
  1007. 46:26her at night. Sometimes I even pretend
  1008. 46:29I'm sleeping, Dad, so I can give weight
  1009. 46:33to her heart. I'm not there reading the
  1010. 46:39devotional, I'm just expressing God,
  1011. 46:41valuing her life. Every week I go out
  1012. 46:44with my son for individual discipleship
  1013. 46:46, golden advice. But because I want to
  1014. 46:50give weight, give weight. I'm exhausted
  1015. 46:56here because I decided that I would
  1016. 46:57dedicate these 40 hours to it. And I
  1017. 47:00started last Sunday. Give weight. You
  1018. 47:03know when you go to a place that is of
  1019. 47:05God, but God isn't there? Why? Because
  1020. 47:08People don't give it weight. The
  1021. 47:09service is over, hallelujah, back to my
  1022. 47:11normal life. Thursday, hi, hi, hi. Cell
  1023. 47:14group day, only the shell goes to the
  1024. 47:15cell. A group of people stuck in a rut
  1025. 47:17who don't seek God, who don't love God,
  1026. 47:19who don't want to know about God, who
  1027. 47:21only go there to pay God's bill, they
  1028. 47:23have no presence. Peter said that we
  1029. 47:28are living stones and when we gather,
  1030. 47:30we become a spiritual house, a movement
  1031. 47:32of the Holy Spirit of God. A woman in
  1032. 47:40the Bible named Anna, no, Mary. The
  1033. 47:44brothers know the story. And Jesus
  1034. 47:48entered that house and there was Martha
  1035. 47:49and there was Mary. Remember that the
  1036. 47:53weight you give is the attention you
  1037. 47:54give to it. A lot of attention to
  1038. 47:58something. I feel very loved by my
  1039. 48:00pastor and he gives me a lot of
  1040. 48:01attention when I need him. The Bible
  1041. 48:05says that Martha was agitated and
  1042. 48:06worried and anxious about many tasks.
  1043. 48:10With all due respect, you who work hard
  1044. 48:12and should work hard, I am a pastor who
  1045. 48:14also works very hard, more than many
  1046. 48:16pastors, but my priority is not...
  1047. 48:18That's life. That's life. That's life.
  1048. 48:26And Mary, she sat down and gave weight,
  1049. 48:28gave weight. And the Bible says that
  1050. 48:34Mary chose the better part. Why?
  1051. 48:38Because she gave weight, gave weight,
  1052. 48:43gave weight. And because she gave
  1053. 48:47weight, she grew, she bore fruit, she
  1054. 48:49became a living legacy, because she
  1055. 48:51gave weight. Do you want to have a
  1056. 48:55woman of God? Invest in her. Go take a
  1057. 48:59course with her, go read a book with
  1058. 49:01her, go be discipled with her, come
  1059. 49:03take a course with her, go lead with
  1060. 49:05her, go to discipleship with her, give
  1061. 49:07weight. But, pastor, to give weight, I
  1062. 49:10will have to give up some things.
  1063. 49:12That's what Jesus said. Mary chose few
  1064. 49:15things. These few things were the most
  1065. 49:20important things she chose. And another
  1066. 49:27was Elisha and Elijah. The Bible says
  1067. 49:31that Elisha performed twice as many
  1068. 49:33miracles as Elijah. He performed twice
  1069. 49:36as many miracles. But what happened in
  1070. 49:39this story, pastor? 2 Kings, chapter 2,
  1071. 49:42verses 9 and 10. It happened that After
  1072. 49:44they had crossed over, Elijah said to
  1073. 49:47Elisha, “Ask me what you want me to
  1074. 49:49do for you.” Look, God is here. Look
  1075. 49:52at God's expression. What do you want
  1076. 49:56me to do for you? Then you come here in
  1077. 49:58prayer. I want the restoration of my
  1078. 50:00marriage. I want to have blessed
  1079. 50:02children. I want my business to prosper
  1080. 50:04. Here it is. Here is the expression of
  1081. 50:06the new covenant. Remember when someone
  1082. 50:12came to Jesus?“What do you want?”
  1083. 50:19Look at the prophet's answer. “Before
  1084. 50:22I am taken from you.” And Elisha said
  1085. 50:26, “I ask that a double portion of
  1086. 50:28your spirit be upon me.” I want a
  1087. 50:31double portion of the anointing. I want
  1088. 50:33the anointing of Pastor Luiso. I want
  1089. 50:36the anointing of Pastor Wilson. And I
  1090. 50:38have dedicated my life to receiving
  1091. 50:40this anointing. Honoring, serving,
  1092. 50:43cooperating. They are not perfect, but
  1093. 50:47the most important thing is for you to
  1094. 50:49understand. There is a criterion for
  1095. 50:51you to receive a double portion of the
  1096. 50:53anointing. I praise God, when I look at
  1097. 50:56my wife's life, I see so much of Pastor
  1098. 50:58Zanilda's work, and the pastor says,
  1099. 51:00“My wife loves her wife very much.”
  1100. 51:04When he was with Pastor Karina, the
  1101. 51:06pastor would say," Wow, Pastor Karina
  1102. 51:08speaks very highly of your wife, that
  1103. 51:10she's a gift from God. She's receiving
  1104. 51:12the anointing, she received anointing
  1105. 51:14from Pastor Karina, she became a pastor
  1106. 51:15, she took over supervision, she's
  1107. 51:17enjoying Pastor Zanilda's anointing.
  1108. 51:20It's not what you do, it's the weight
  1109. 51:21you give to that anointing. Oh, I want
  1110. 51:24to be a cell leader. Honor your cell
  1111. 51:26leader. Don't use him. And he said,
  1112. 51:31look what the prophet said. Wow, you
  1113. 51:34asked for something difficult. Here's
  1114. 51:38the key. If you see me when I am taken
  1115. 51:42from you, so be it. If not, it will not
  1116. 51:46be. Do you know what the prophet said?
  1117. 51:49I can give you this anointing, but
  1118. 51:51there's one thing. Don't take your eyes
  1119. 51:55off me. Because if you don't take your
  1120. 51:59eyes off me, when I go, you will
  1121. 52:00receive the mantle. What's our problem?
  1122. 52:04Because of feelings, differences, you
  1123. 52:06take your eyes off me. How many
  1124. 52:08brothers take their eyes off the church
  1125. 52:10? "One day someone said," Pastor, I'm
  1126. 52:14going to stop leading because I'm
  1127. 52:15having some problems in my life and
  1128. 52:16everything. "And I said," Okay. "He
  1129. 52:18stopped leading, disappeared from the
  1130. 52:20church. Now he's in total disarray. You
  1131. 52:23have to go visit him. What was the
  1132. 52:27problem? He was leading something in
  1133. 52:30the church, but taking his eyes off the
  1134. 52:31church. That's why we have a structure
  1135. 52:35here in the church, parenting courses,
  1136. 52:37seminars, finance courses, so that you
  1137. 52:38don't take your eyes off what we
  1138. 52:40believe. It's strange that you're here,
  1139. 52:43wanting to come here on Sundays, attend
  1140. 52:45a church service, but you don't want to
  1141. 52:47take the church courses. You are, with
  1142. 52:49all due respect, someone who is
  1143. 52:51unchurched, yet still churching. We
  1144. 52:53contemplate Christ and are transformed.
  1145. 52:55We give you a structure so that you can
  1146. 52:57contemplate what we believe. What do we
  1147. 53:01believe about finances? Do you know
  1148. 53:04what we believe about the return of
  1149. 53:05Jesus? Do you know? There are churches
  1150. 53:10that believe salvation is lost. We
  1151. 53:11don't believe that. We believe that
  1152. 53:13once saved, always saved. Once a child,
  1153. 53:16always a child. The issue is new birth,
  1154. 53:18because whoever is born again becomes a
  1155. 53:20child. They may even sin, but they
  1156. 53:23return like the prodigal son. Who are
  1157. 53:28you looking at, brothers and sisters?
  1158. 53:30I'm looking at Pastor Luís, the pastor
  1159. 53:32, like this, see? God doesn't give you
  1160. 53:37what you want. He gives you what you
  1161. 53:40need in a package you don't want. And
  1162. 53:43then you start to like the package. I
  1163. 53:46really like Pastor Wilson and Pastor
  1164. 53:48Aluía, but in the beginning it's
  1165. 53:49because children don't like the package
  1166. 53:51at first. Hmm. Your palate changes as
  1167. 53:57you grow up. Did you know that? I don't
  1168. 53:59like eggplant, I don't like bananas, I
  1169. 54:01don't like vegetables. It's a matter of
  1170. 54:04time, but the problem is having a
  1171. 54:06childish palate your whole life. There
  1172. 54:08are plenty of believers who think
  1173. 54:09they're mature but have a childish
  1174. 54:11palate. The way the pastor spoke, oh my
  1175. 54:14, oh my, oh my, spoiled little Nutella
  1176. 54:16mommy. It has to be your way. Gabriel,
  1177. 54:20I was born this way and here's the
  1178. 54:21thing, I'm going to die this way. No,
  1179. 54:23no. Change for the love of your wife,
  1180. 54:26woman. Change for the love of your
  1181. 54:28husband, but you can't change yourself.
  1182. 54:30It's the source, it's Him, it's Christ.
  1183. 54:32Christ. I had an agreement with my wife
  1184. 54:35that I wouldn't shake my leg like this,
  1185. 54:37you know? My head would be like this.
  1186. 54:40She said," Honey, it bothers me that
  1187. 54:42you're like this. "I said," Then I'll
  1188. 54:44tell you something, you're always
  1189. 54:45picking at your cuticles. It's like a
  1190. 54:47teacher with chalk. "We made an
  1191. 54:50agreement three years ago that I
  1192. 54:51wouldn't shake my leg. She stopped, and
  1193. 54:54I stopped shaking my leg. But she
  1194. 54:56didn't stop with the cuticles. But it's
  1195. 54:59all good. What's a cuticle? I lost such
  1196. 55:01a blessed woman as my wife. She's going
  1197. 55:05to be fighting over every cuticle. You
  1198. 55:07didn't take off your shoe. It's the way
  1199. 55:09you talk. It's not what you say. You
  1200. 55:11didn't arrive on time at 6:15. Get out
  1201. 55:16of here, Satan.
  1202. 55:19Jesus said that to Peter. Get thee
  1203. 55:21behind me, Satan. Do
  1204. 55:23you realize that Jesus had disciples?
  1205. 55:26But Peter was always the target of
  1206. 55:28confrontation. Peter, Peter, Peter, so
  1207. 55:40much confusion. There are brothers who
  1208. 55:44like to stir up trouble, right,
  1209. 55:45brothers? 2 Kings 3:11 says:" Elisha
  1210. 55:52poured water on the hands of the
  1211. 55:54prophet Elijah. He gave weight to the
  1212. 55:59prophet and received the prophet's
  1213. 56:00anointing. "Dear friend, your
  1214. 56:04difficulties in life are because you
  1215. 56:05don't give weight where you don't have
  1216. 56:07it. Why can't you be a real man? Maybe
  1217. 56:13you didn't have a father, but God put
  1218. 56:15you in a church so that you can put
  1219. 56:17your pride aside at 30, 40, 50 years
  1220. 56:19old. Can you help me? I'm very
  1221. 56:22emasculated. I'm very soft, I don't
  1222. 56:25know how to deal with my wife. And
  1223. 56:27someone will teach you. Maybe you're
  1224. 56:29someone who's financially broken,
  1225. 56:31living off your reputation. In church
  1226. 56:34it's wonderful, but your bank account
  1227. 56:36is a huge debt. God put you here. Maybe
  1228. 56:42you're a woman who doesn't know how to
  1229. 56:43be sweet. I used to tell my wife, go to
  1230. 56:48the pastor, she'll teach you how to be
  1231. 56:50a wife, she'll teach you about
  1232. 56:51household things, she'll teach you
  1233. 56:53about children. She was giving weight
  1234. 56:56to what she didn't have. What you don't
  1235. 56:59have, God gives you, but to receive it,
  1236. 57:01you need to learn to...To give weight.
  1237. 57:05Moses was a great man of God, but do
  1238. 57:07you know who succeeded him? Moses was
  1239. 57:09Joshua. But why Joshua? Because Joshua
  1240. 57:13gave weight to Moses. The Bible says
  1241. 57:16that Joshua was known as Moses' servant
  1242. 57:18. I want to be known as a servant of
  1243. 57:22Pastor Luísio and Pastor Hilson. There
  1244. 57:24will be a documentary about the free
  1245. 57:26radicals, an incredible story. And they
  1246. 57:29asked me:" Do you believe you will fill
  1247. 57:31the stadiums? "As I said in the past:"
  1248. 57:34No, I believe I will dedicate my life
  1249. 57:36to what is in Pastor Aloísio's heart.
  1250. 57:40That is my mission. And if I have to
  1251. 57:42fill a stadium, hallelujah! But if I
  1252. 57:44don't have to fill the stadium, I will
  1253. 57:46serve his ministry. Serve your wife's
  1254. 57:48ministry. See God. When my wife starts
  1255. 57:52talking and I perceive God, I give
  1256. 57:54weight. Sometimes you're talking as a
  1257. 57:56couple, scrolling through Instagram,
  1258. 57:58talking fast, complete, no. Quality
  1259. 58:02time, time of weight, time of anointing
  1260. 58:04. We took an offering here for the
  1261. 58:07children's ministry yesterday. Do you
  1262. 58:09know the book about fasting? How many
  1263. 58:11are blessed by the book about fasting?
  1264. 58:12Raise your hand. It's by Pastor Wilson.
  1265. 58:15It costs R $ 30, but we have 3,000
  1266. 58:17children, and many in communities that
  1267. 58:19don't have money. Do you know who pays
  1268. 58:21for these books? The leader kids. R $
  1269. 58:2412 each little book, R $ 500. But I'll
  1270. 58:27tell you, we have an offer for this.
  1271. 58:29The sisters would be loved and blessed
  1272. 58:31if no one paid anything.
  1273. 58:33No, that doesn't weigh much. Or do you
  1274. 58:35want to pay? Who do you want to be
  1275. 58:37blessed in these communities? Raise
  1276. 58:38your hand.
  1277. 58:40The children's meeting is R $ 30. And I
  1278. 58:43have a desire for it to be free, the
  1279. 58:45book and the children's meeting.
  1280. 58:47How many also want free children's
  1281. 58:49meetings? We've been
  1282. 58:51doing this for two semesters now, the
  1283. 58:53children's book. So I'll say this to
  1284. 58:56you who are a businessman. I'm praying
  1285. 58:59for you to become rich, not so you can
  1286. 59:01live in a mansion, but so you can be a
  1287. 59:03sponsor of this church's children's
  1288. 59:04ministry. The children's snacks are
  1289. 59:07there, I think the sisters bring them,
  1290. 59:09but where are the business owners?
  1291. 59:10He'll say: "Pastor, here's what's going
  1292. 59:12to be McDonald's.
  1293. 59:18Weight, weight, anointing, grace of God
  1294. 59:23. I like the people I care for, I like
  1295. 59:30the attention, I like to give weight.
  1296. 59:34I'll tell you something. Live your life
  1297. 59:36, but don't forget what's essential. I
  1298. 59:42buy little toys for my wife, for my
  1299. 59:44daughter, when I travel. That day she
  1300. 59:46was at the airport. 'Dad, buy something
  1301. 59:48, take a little chocolate, a little
  1302. 59:50gift, a little something for my wife.'
  1303. 59:52Do you know what that means? Go on your
  1304. 59:53trip. But remember the church while
  1305. 59:56you're there. Pastor Rodrigo went to
  1306. 59:59Italy. Hallelujah. Many hands traveled.
  1307. 1:00:02Many places. So, rich, blessed and
  1308. 1:00:05prosperous church, be an inspiration to
  1309. 1:00:07you. But his wife sent a message to my
  1310. 1:00:10wife. 'I miss church.' When I travel, I
  1311. 1:00:15miss my home and I have an attitude
  1312. 1:00:17like a little gift, I make a video call
  1313. 1:00:19, I say an audio prayer. I want to make
  1314. 1:00:22it clear that I'm not at home, but my
  1315. 1:00:24life is there." Pastor Wilson is the
  1316. 1:00:28pastor of the city. He's not here, but
  1317. 1:00:30I make a point of talking about him
  1318. 1:00:32every Sunday because he is the pastor
  1319. 1:00:34of the city. Remember the church,
  1320. 1:00:40remember the pastor, remember the
  1321. 1:00:42brothers and sisters from your cell
  1322. 1:00:44group. It's good, it's good to have
  1323. 1:00:48brothers and sisters who travel and
  1324. 1:00:50miss the church. That means they are
  1325. 1:00:53committed to the church. When you leave
  1326. 1:00:59, you don't forget you belong to the
  1327. 1:01:00place you left. Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
  1328. 1:01:13Do you know what makes a marriage end?
  1329. 1:01:15This is what I preached. A woman
  1330. 1:01:18doesn't feel loved, she doesn't feel
  1331. 1:01:20valued. A man doesn't feel respected.
  1332. 1:01:23What makes anything end? It's the end
  1333. 1:01:25of the weight. I don't want my
  1334. 1:01:29relationship with my pastor to end over
  1335. 1:01:31insignificant issues. I want it to end
  1336. 1:01:35when the purpose ends and we become
  1337. 1:01:37great friends as we are. Besides being
  1338. 1:01:40a pastor of the Vineyard, I am a member
  1339. 1:01:42of the Vineyard and my brothers are
  1340. 1:01:43pastors of the Vineyard. Here we got
  1341. 1:01:47married, here we prospered, here my
  1342. 1:01:48father bought his house, here we
  1343. 1:01:50experienced everything we knew about
  1344. 1:01:52our wives. Here we learned to Raising
  1345. 1:01:56our children. Here we learned to
  1346. 1:01:58forgive, to lead, to deal with
  1347. 1:02:00difficult problems. But this was never
  1348. 1:02:03a place we went to, it was a place we
  1349. 1:02:05placed our lives. And I want to
  1350. 1:02:09challenge you, don't be someone who
  1351. 1:02:11comes, be someone who belongs, because
  1352. 1:02:12that will build a history. It's sad,
  1353. 1:02:16brothers and sisters, that there's no
  1354. 1:02:18history. They don't, they only have a
  1355. 1:02:20history in what they desire. They have
  1356. 1:02:23a history like a father. I admire my
  1357. 1:02:25father, you know why? He was a
  1358. 1:02:27metalworker. But it wasn't because of
  1359. 1:02:29that. He would come home and leave on
  1360. 1:02:32foot to save on gas. But what I admired
  1361. 1:02:35most about my father and mother, you
  1362. 1:02:36know what it was? Every day, at 5 in
  1363. 1:02:38the morning, I would wake up with my
  1364. 1:02:40mother praying for each member of her
  1365. 1:02:42cell group and blessing her children
  1366. 1:02:43and my father's day. She would pray
  1367. 1:02:47loudly, and every day at 5:20 my father
  1368. 1:02:49would get up and go to work. My father
  1369. 1:02:54led a cell group, he took all the
  1370. 1:02:56church courses. You know what led me to
  1371. 1:02:58decide to become a pastor? No. They
  1372. 1:03:00were the shepherds of the vine. F. I
  1373. 1:03:02understand. Wow, my father works so
  1374. 1:03:04hard, suffers so much, and is
  1375. 1:03:06dedicating his life to something that
  1376. 1:03:08must be very important. If you look at
  1377. 1:03:11the books I wrote, the first ones, I
  1378. 1:03:12make a point of honoring my father who
  1379. 1:03:14taught me what has value. I hope that I
  1380. 1:03:18, as a pastor, and this team of pastors
  1381. 1:03:20, am teaching you what is important.
  1382. 1:03:24Money passes, opportunities pass, but
  1383. 1:03:27what remains is what is important.
