00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 5th October 2015 titled I Sinned yesterday. I sinned yesterday. Brothers and sisters, this sin business is real.

00:17 Is real. Now, as I told you all, whenever I do something wrong or I say something wrong, people generally won’t correct me. Because why? Sometimes it will be too subtle for people to even imagine that there’s something wrong I’m doing or saying.

00:32 But also because people hold this thing, you’re a pastor and then you’ve been teaching them or whatever. But for me the correction has always been from the time I started, when God got me, from time to time it always been I’ll be sensitive to the
surroundings. How my wife’s countenance, how her spirit is, how my children spirit.

00:53 Yesterday I was having lunch with my brother pastor and my wife. And there suddenly I’m talking, my words are coming out of my heart. What I’m talking about how great I am.

01:06 Not how great thou art, but how great I art. Now whatever I was saying is true. What is coming out is what I have done in the week or last week or whatever.

01:19 And it is true. But it is pride. It is pride is coming out.

01:24 It’s coming out with pride. I did this, I did that. Now I’m important now.

01:30 Now for many now be warned for this. Because many dismiss this as nothing. But immediately what happened, I saw my wife’s countenance change.

01:40 And also my brother pastor, my fellow pastor, his faith changed. Very slight changes. It used very hard to see until go God shows you.

01:50 So immediately it’s both. And at the same time, even before I saw their faces change at the same time, there was a pressure in my soul, a tension. The spirit of God is telling me this is pride.

02:02 You know, you’re boasting, you’re boasting, you’re bragging. Whatever. The fact I’m telling is a fact.

02:08 This all I’ve done, but it’s still boasting. Because I refuse to understand one thing my heart refuses to understand. All that I could do is because I was empowered.

02:19 Empowered to do by Jesus Christ of Nazareth, by his cross, by suffering on the cross. That is why he gave me a second life, even a third or fourth life. And now I able to do all this by his mercy.

02:31 I do all things through Christ Jesus. No, that is the heart doesn’t want to recognize that. My heart wants to recognize that I did it.

02:38 I did it. And so when I’m the word’s coming, that means deep inside there is Sitting down there, you know, I did it. So the worst coming out is that I did this, I did that.

02:48 One or two items only, but that was serious items. Literally saying, I’m a genius. Yeah, true, maybe even.

02:57 But who made you genius? Who made me genius? Who gave the ingenuity? Not recognized. Heart doesn’t want to recognize. My mind has not been converted.

03:06 My mind is converted, but my heart has not converted that area. It comes to the genius business suddenly, oh, I’m great. And then it bothered me.

03:14 And then in there itself, I’m trying to rectify it with one or two words, but it bothered me. I’m telling sorry Lord in my heart. And now, sorry, Lord, I don’t want this.

03:23 I want to be humble. Why I want to be humble. We know.

03:26 I know. I’ve been teaching this anyway how long I want to be humble because grace, grace for the humble and for the proud. What happens? Damnation, condemnation, finish.

03:40 But now why am I telling you this? Because this morning, you know, it’s been a long while since I got up at 4 something in the morning. Today I got up 4 something in the morning and I feel healthy. Thank Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

03:54 It’s been a long while with the haze and all that. I have not got up 4 something in the morning. Many times I’m getting up late at 7 today I got worth something, the money.

04:03 And I. When as soon as my consciousness came. Consciousness came back to me from the sleep. God is talking about this.

04:11 The spirit of God is telling and I know and I say, yes, Lord, Messed up, messed up, Lord. Then it’s my Father by the way. Remember, I’m not running away from him.

04:21 I say, father? Yes, Father. Messed up, Lord Jesus, I messed up. Messed up now.

04:26 Messed up already. Of course I repented immediately that time itself. But the thing is working there.

04:32 Why God still brings this up this morning to me, first thing in the morning I woke up. Consciousness comes back into me from my sleep. And this is the thing sitting there and dwelling.

04:42 And the Spirit of God is dealing with me. Why? He wants me to be presented as a chaste virgin to Christ. He wants my soul to be presented as a chaste virgin to Christ.

04:55 So he wants everything out, every item, every deposit of sin to be out, anything of pride to be completely out. And it has to be out from time to time, from issue to issue. Now, some will say it’s nothing.

05:10 No, it is very big thing. Brothers and sisters better understand if any of you are thinking this is nothing like you just break the big no, you all do not understand those who are thinking like this do not understand the problem here. Do not
understand that the the terrible consequences that we harm ourselves to the point.

05:21 Do not understand any bit of pride anything that about you. That is why the fundamental Scriptures remember all the time God reminds us what God opposes. The proud gives grace to the humble.

05:41 That is James 4, 6, 2 Corinthians 13:5. If examine ourselves, examine ourselves, test ourselves. 2nd Corinthians 13:5 Galatians 6:3.

05:52 If anyone thinks himself to be something when he’s nothing, he deceives himself. So if my heart is thinking I’m something, I’m actually deceiving myself. Though the consequences will take off.

06:04 It is not a simple matter of just small matter. What you said is true. There is a bit of braggart.

06:10 Okay, I say sorry, go on. No, the thing sitting down there in my heart. So I must now deal with it and may raise again.

06:17 I do not know. I will come to the Scriptures later. And if I think I know something, I do not know as I ought to know as yet.

06:24 Brothers and sisters, this thing people think the first sin is in the Garden of Eden where Adam, where Eve was tempted and fell into sin. No, the first sin of all ages is in the heaven when Lucifer became prideful. Pride is the first sin.

06:47 It’s not that the situation in the Garden of Eden, where Satan went and tempted Eve. There was a temptation issue involved with Eve. For Lucifer, there was no temptation involved.

06:59 He decided, I want to be higher. I want to be higher than all. I want all worship to myself.

07:00 I want to be like God or God. So now. So whatever in our heart that produces this kind of thinking, this kind of thought about you wanting to be good.

07:00 I want to be great. I want to tell about how great you are. Our heart doesn’t want to remember.

07:19 You are only great because he made you great. Now the fact that I am telling you today that itself can be pride, I have to check. Because when God is telling me, I dealt.

07:29 Yes, Lord. Yes, Lord. Today I wanted to deal with false prophets and false thing.

07:34 In the night I was thinking about this. But in the morning, my God, the husband of my soul, telling me, go and tell them you sinned and tell them how they’ll get out of it. How you get out of it.

07:44 How I love you, how I wash you your sin and change you from glory to glory. So I’m telling you this now, this alone. I have to check.

07:51 I have to check. What am I telling you to show? Hey, you see how humble I Am now how humble I am. Now I confess my sin, you know, is that what my heart is thinking? I have to check this.

08:03 Why my heart may want to do that. You know, in preaching, suddenly tell something so that people think, you know, what a great pastor this man humble, he confesses, hey, I may confess, but my heart may not be humble. This is what you have to check,
brothers and sisters.

08:21 You may say things very humble. That’s false humility. God calls it Bible says, false humility.

08:28 We act humble, we say things humble, we say things gently and softly. But inside our heart it is wicked. Now, what are the scriptures that allow what I need to teach today? God is bringing out Romans 7, 15, 17.

08:44 Just 15 17. Two verses 16. I’m not dealing because it doesn’t affect us right now.

08:49 Romans 7:15. I’m using the Catholic edition. Apostle Paul saying, you know, I do not understand my own actions, for I do not do what I want to do, but I do the very thing I hate.

09:05 Paul, no, I do not understand my own actions. He doesn’t understand his own actions, for I do not do what I want to do, but I do the very thing I hate. Now, brother sisters, that is 15.

09:20 I know I hate pride. Why? Pride killed me before. Already I was close to death when Jesus saved me.

09:27 Pride cost me all that. I know that pride against God, pride against God, you know, thinking I will do my way. What is that pride? Anyone of us do not want to obey the word of God is pride against God.

09:39 Better remember, anyone who does not want to do the love your neighbor as yourself. Those who want to think, examine and do that, humble themselves to do this. You will not live.

09:50 God said that in Luke. Okay, in Luke 10, 26, 28. If anyone says doesn’t want to do.

10:00 If you do love your neighbor as yourself, you will leave God. Love God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength. If you love God, you will do it.

10:06 And how you do it? By the power of Christ. In the name of Jesus Christ. By the blood of Jesus Christ.

10:12 You can do it. We can do it now. Of course, my Father has forgiven me.

10:16 I feel released. But morning he’s getting up. I know when I ask for forgiveness, he’s forgiven me.

10:21 Yesterday over lunch. But then he’s bringing this matter up. First thing when the consciousness came back.

10:27 The Spirit of God is dealing with me. Why? He wants me to be present as a chaste virgin to Christ. Now, brothers and sisters, this one.

10:33 Let’s look at this. So Apostle Paul is saying he doesn’t understand his own Actions. So yesterday I also don’t understand one actions why my heart is moving by itself.

10:43 Because now 17 but now it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. So who was doing this yesterday? I am not doing it because I am a spirit being. I am a spirit being given life by Jesus Christ.

10:58 And Christ is in my spirit. Christ is in me. And the Spirit of God is in me.

11:02 And the Spirit of God has given me life. I am a spirit being. So who is doing this sin that dwells in me? Apostle Paul said in 17 so whenever you do sin, remember brother, you are not doing that.

11:16 Sin is dwelling in you and doing it. It’s in your heart. Sin is in your heart, then you have to get rid of it.

11:23 Glory to glory. For instance, what does a bride to be? I know what bride to be do. They have an engagement even before the engagement date, say three months later, they’re going to have engagement.

11:35 What they do, they make sure there are no pimples and this and that isn’t it. They begin to do. They maybe even try to drop some weight.

11:42 One or two inches off the waist. They do all that getting ready for the engagement. They want to present themselves as beautiful to the future husband.

11:52 So what happens? They deal with issues. They deal with their face, they deal with their body. They deal the hair, whatever.

11:59 Now, brothers and sisters, we deal with our souls. We deal with our souls. We want to present our soul as a chaste virgin to Christ.

12:08 So what we do? We get away once God tells us. Yes, Lord. Sorry.

12:12 Lord. Mercy. Lord, this is the biggest sin.

12:15 Everybody falls into it. Pride, pride. You better understand the check there now.

12:21 Sin that dwells in me. It’s no longer I who do it, Apostle Paul said, but sin that dwells with me. Now in 24 he’s saying same verse 7 Romans 724 O wretched man that I am.

12:34 O miserable man that I am. Who will deliver me from this body of death? Apostle Paul crying out. But then he answers after that Jesus Christ of Nazareth will deliver him.

12:42 Jesus Christ of Nazareth will deliver me. Jesus Christ of Nazareth will deliver you. Brothers and sisters, there is great hope.

12:51 There is great hope. That is why remember in Hebrews 4:12 we dealt with it. The discerner.

12:57 The word of God is a discerner, exposes the thoughts and intents of the heart. So because of the word of God opposes God opposes the proud. Give grace the humble.

13:09 Of course, that is popping straight, isn’t it? Oh, this pride. Now I am now grace. That’s why people say, I got grace, I am in grace.

13:16 I am in grace. But if they are prideful, there is no grace. Brothers and sisters, the grace of salvation has come.

13:23 But now, to get grace in living your life in graciousness, in grace of God, you need to be humble. Because God says he opposes the proud. So those of you who are thinking, thought wrongly, you got grace, you got grace.

13:37 Grace. They forget that if you are prideful, grace is not there. Grace for salvation has come, but grace for other things is not there.

13:47 Because God is opposing your actions. God is opposing action. That word of God has not changed.

13:54 And that word of God, brothers and sisters, it’s in James 4 is a new Testament. It is in the New Testament. It’s after where? After Christ died and rose again.

14:03 And the apostle James 4 is saying, God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble. Brothers and sisters, today understand this and some more. Then I’m thinking, why? How did it happen? Where is this thing sitting? Yeah, it’s been sitting there
a long time, looks like.

14:18 And it may still be sitting there. I do not know. Some remnants of it, some fragments of this pride regarding I’m genius now.

14:27 Also, I’ve been ministering to a lot of people during the week. Lot of unbelievers even. And spirit transference can take place.

14:34 Spirit transference doesn’t mean the evil spirit from the outside world jumped into me. No, spirit transference, the characteristics bad company corrupts good character. But it can only do that.

14:44 If I’m drawn by my own heart desire, I’m done. How does temptation come? When I’m drawn by my own heart’s desire. That means there is a desire somewhere in my heart.

14:55 I must tell everybody I’m a genius. Not enough knowing that you’re a genius and genius. But not enough knowing that the genius or not came from Christ.

15:05 Without Christ, I’m a dumbo. Complete dumbo. But no, don’t want.

15:10 The heart doesn’t want to recognize that I’m saying I means I’m talking about the heart. The heart doesn’t want to recognize that. Heart wants to tell everybody you are genius and doesn’t want to give credit to God, doesn’t want to give glory to God
that wants to only say that I’m a genius.

15:24 But the fact is the heart will not even exist. I will not exist without Jesus Christ. I’ve been given life, so how can you? And where does genius come only from God.

15:34 Where does wisdom come? Wisdom comes from God accepting God and crying out to him. And only wisdom comes from God. Every other worldly wisdom is foolishness.

15:44 Foolishness, brothers and sisters. So today let’s understand this. First focus on pride.

15:49 Everywhere you do, you will find that the heart is moving some pride. But remember who is doing this sin that dwells in you, the sin nature that dwells in you means dwells in your heart, the sin nature. So we have to deal with this.

16:05 That’s why instead of people talk about, you know, oh, this country going to, this country going that, forget about it. That country going to some trouble, prophecy after prophecy. Oh, turn from your wicked ways and all your stories.

16:16 Forget all that. Let’s change ourselves. Let’s change ourselves.

16:18 Let’s focus on changing ourselves and presenting our soul as a chaste virgin to Christ. That’s a wonderful thing for us to do today, every day. That’s a fantastic thing.

16:28 In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray Amen.
