As I listened to this message, I began to see a scheme of my enemy in my life with a bit more clarity. I have been wounded by men, women, and leadership in the church. But, I am also gifted and believe the Lord is calling me into more with Him and for the kingdom. How clever our enemy to make it difficult for me to cultivate meaningful, godly relationships in the church, to steward money specifically (poverty spirit), and to receive from leadership. I am currently not a member of a church but am a believer and love the Lord. I had been meeting with a group of believers, but I was hurt by the patriarch in that region and household making it difficult for me to even move forward with the Lord in His things for my life. I am currently in transition and looking for work that is purposeful and meaningful; and I have been praying about finding a church home as well. I want to settle down somewhere. I want to be planted. I want to set roots. And I want to bear much fruit. The enemy has worked hard to keep me from hearing my call and from being sent. Please pray for me. And thank you so much for this message. It was timely and helpful. God bless you!

[@user-mt2ok1tn6j]

Sorry, I meant the Spirit of truth

[@Lively2Peace]

Yeah! And Amen! Jesus Christ in all things! Press for the mark of the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus Phillipians 3:14. Alike the person the PRM Team responded here in foregoing, I have such alike experience occurring,many years,but find a ministry Lord led even esp in Covid ordeal too,as already accustomed to isolation,PRAISE THE LORD,for ex communication from the places expired their use of God of me in anyway! as I read I received an Holy Spirit unction to send encouraging words connection add in. Except" the hurt" by a Patriarch. Or others, in Church(es) Bible Groups, I've identified no less,( I was a child exploited gang crimes taken by strangers into total isolation for years beyond 18, identity theft,I didn't even know had occurred, and inadvertance & surprise become predictable horror children infancy taken away by the same trafficking owner criminal people,not only men as total donination deprivation of prisoner victims,and more babies died than survived, the isolation and controlled abuse violence,guns,physical force threats,day to day enduring and not.from a good Christian well off family of generations of same,I no longer knew or they me or about me at all,I later learned skewed away from Christianity bef Grand predecessors passed away,the violence of evil that enters the seemingly otherwise ordinary person,has repetitive encounters alienated me,and my hope is in Christ,not those that could but won't receive the laborer I am when the Lord has sent me,he also constrains me ) and tho not hurt me, (Luke 10:19, Mark 16:17,(esp 18; quote Jesus"and nothing shall by any means hurt you") I declare these scriptures aloud over myself, my life, and apply the Blood of Jesus daily, take up the armor Eph 6:12-18 ( esp 18 ,and Phillipians 4:6,7 ,with Mark 11:24 always) I also often declare 2 Corinthians 2:14, often daily aloud as announcement and tho A Church preacher personal prejudice seemed to wrong me quite some times years ago now. Mark 11:25,26 gets my Salvation hope trust faith truth reinforcement hands down , and I believe those things I pray and say in Jesus name. And tho I remember , The preference of Love of God through Jesus Christ with Holy Spirit dwelling richly in me then as now, didn't make a hitch for me at all. Which good time in the Love chapter , and being baptized in the Holy Spirit, (& washed in The Blood) speaking in spirit, tongues, WhaaaHooo! Hallelujah!! Good God Almighty! I hoped you'd find me PRAISING YOUR NAME NO MATTER WHAT COMES! PRAISING YOUR NAME ALL OVER THE PLACE TODAY!! NOW! THANKS! BE TO GOD! WHICH ALWAYS CAUSES US TO TRIUMPH IN CHRIST AND MAKES MANIFEST THE SAVOUR OF HIS KNOWLEDGE BY US IN EVERY PLACE! IN JESUS CHRIST ALL POWERFUL PERFECT PRECIOUS ROYAL HIGH MOST GLORIOUS NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES NOT ONLY IN THIS WORLD BUT THAT WHICH IS TO COME!! TO THE PRAISE OF THE GLORY OF THE GRACE OF GOD GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY! AMEN! (I pray asked several years ago to Jesus with Thanks to God Abba Father, John 7:37,38 for the rivers of living water in me, because Lord I abide in your word and your words abide in me John 15:7, and Hebrews 10;19-22, and that was 5 years bef I got baptized in The Holy Spirit, and no sooner had I prayed and said I believe I receive, Mark 11:24 " when ye pray" emphasis. So be sure you have your belief up in your faith bef you pray so you can believe you receive right then and keep giving Thanks until,[ "if" there is any waiting at all kind of prayer,some you know for future like for our children require time] manifest) It was a rising inside me suddenly, and Joy as never experienced before, Exceeding GREAT JOY!! JOY! I MEAN JOY! Even greater than when I became in Love with Jesus. And has never decreased, dimished, depleted, receded,it's THE WAVE THAT NEVER ENDS! I GOT THE WHOLE FOUNTAIN!! But, The living waters get " Richer" with closeness to God in the word and time , as the richness of taste and see THE LORD IS GOOD Enrich 's beyond human capacity of explanation. Divine IS Divine!!! And you know, John 14:27 focus with prayer,guarding our hearts,to Him,is training for transforming,Bec we can " let not" our hearts be troubled neither let it be afraid, simply Divinely speaking,because HE says so, that's why.We all wave in & out or waffle, waffle,( James 1 chapter,daily 1:6 soon upon after wake up for me ,Matt.7:7) And the Kingdom in me took on greatly broader meaning and Holy Spirit insight revelations meaning and purpose. We have to "say" what Jesus says ( Hebrews 1:1-4 esp verse 2 for this comment) the spirit of truth and wisdom and faith for manifestations are in the saying He brings our results.. A not much referred to scripture, even by our wonderful faith preachers and teachers, never the less is Eph 6:23.Take that closely in; "Peace be to the brethren,and love with faith,from God The Father and The Lord Jesus Christ.(& Verse 26 to all readers of this comment) It's the " and faith, from God The Father and The Lord Jesus Christ" that stopped me by Holy Spirit in my reading/ aloud as declaring normal zeal (Lol!) cheerful voice, tracks.bec so many preachers and teachers really believed good ones keep reading the scripture to us where disciples asking " more faith" and staying gets not something we ask for .but here ,alas! Eph 6:23,we can bless ourselves and ithés,and yes ask ! The Lord by this word for more Peace Live and faith with the brethren!and then give Thanks expecting joyfully,He will bring it on time! 11th hour maybe,so don't get discouraged focus on let not your heart be troubled and God will reveal others by Holy Spirit to you as you 1 John 1:7 !! ( you will love the results of saying as declaring into your spirit.Eph 6:23 & 24 too) The sower sows the word! Keep it flowing in Jesus Christ Name! To THE PRAISE! OF THE GLORY! OF THE GRACE OF GOD! NON STOP! IN JESUS CHRIST NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES! AMEN!

I just stumbled across your videos recently and this one hit home. I just got through a 3 year divorce I thought would kill me followed by a serious car wreck and 3 hard falls that really banged my head. I have PTSD. After the wreck the anxiety and panic became more than I could bear. It’s been an excruciating time. Your message was so encouraging. Hopefully, one day, the Lord will use all this. I praise God for your ministry!! May God richly bless your obedience!! 🙏😇

[@user-mt2ok1tn6j]

Praying for you, my life has been much the same.

[@lizcuero9065]

God is teaching me so many things. Especially on judgementalism and the jezebel spirit.

[@TrulyBlessed_1111]

Pastor Rober when I tell you I am crying my eyes out right now. I am so glad I listened to the Holy Spirit and clicked on the first video I saw of yours last week😭. This video was SO impactful for me and my life right now. You actually hit 3 key things the Holy Spirit has been pruning me, guiding me, and speaking to me about. ALL in this one video. I pray that you, your family, and your ministry continue to help others and be blessed. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen!

[@danmahalo]

Thank you, pastor Robert! I hope to meet you one day in person!

[@jb8145]

I have really been struggling for some time these last few years, on and off, with not seeing an answer to prayer. Really *the* prayer that I’ve longed for. As Proverbs says, “A longing fulfilled is a tree of life, but hope deferred makes the heart sick.” This message reminded me that God appoints the time, He hasn’t forgotten me. The Lord also reminded me of a time that he used me to bring a friend back to relationship with Him. I may not see the reason why right now, but that’s because it’s not harvest time in this season, yet. Thank you, Pastor Robert for equipping.

[@erictheshark9045]

Pastor Robert, you're indeed one of my very favorite gifts 🎁🎈 (unfortunately just) on KZbin! 🤩

[@dreas657]

I’ve been back watching and God has been SPEAKING before I watch you then throughout the day, BUT at around 28 minutes and 15 seconds you as a FATHER to a DAUGHTER spoke on the LOVE you gave her and something like the tithes if he didn’t do it he was not good enough. This rn is so important because so many of us come from “broken normals” so they are repeated for generations, until someone says this doesn’t feel right and tries to break it and take it off of not just them, but everyone. Imagine having stickies from the hospital or if you’ve never experienced picture a sticky tshirt when you try to take it off it’s going to hurt… I am going in a different direction, but we as a society need to get back to not only the ROOT but some of us need to learn that our root wasn’t healthy and we need to pull it out so we can plant something healthy.

The Read / sowed Pastor to Saints people, Proverb As iron sharpens iron, so a man sharpens the countenance of his Friend. Proverbs 27:17 Is true. And likewise, sarcastic criticism destroys him/ her, and if worse, the own self that does this. Close self examination of our own character, with Phillipians 4:6 is crucial to accuracy of own sincerity discovery the Holy Spirit answers, listen up! I love the correction of The Word and the Lord by His Spirit. Truth is Gracious in the end result more than harsh it seems or sounds at first, for Courageous living day by day, that's the reassurance of the Holy Spirit. So enjoyed hearing this Sermon for the countless time Pastor ! Thank You! Thank God for your faithfulness! In Jesus Name Amen

[@anap.8236]

[@yaboicoach]

Amen🙏 great points & i appreciate the humility that we all struggle in some area. Time is equally distributed to everyone (as 24hrs) so i would argue it is the simplest as a constant [everyday is a blessing], but lifespan is not. Money & energy are variables where the only constant is the change as years pass by. Doesn't matter where we fall short, whom do we seek when it doesn't work out as it should?..i hope its Jesus💗God Bless ✝️🙏

Pastor what does it mean “To produce the call?”

[@michellemolina3784]

How do I “Produce the call?”

[@matthewtenney2898]

I wasn't able to listen to all of this but just a comment. If we have a gift / talent for something, then we typically get praised for that ability. When that happens, we'll start to think that the gift is our purpose in life but that thought has originated in our own ego. Inevitably we will want to use our gift / talent to gain praise for ourselves versus actually trying to love our neighbor.

[@annettevanzyl2397]

Pastor, as I have heard about the Jewish culture, a child will only be recognized at 30 years of age to take full responsibility in his father's business. The father will then introduce him to the elders of the city, and the father will pronounce him before the elders as his son. Like God the Father pronounced Jesus as His son wen he came up out of the water at His baptism.
