MIND CONTROL
Hallelujah! Let’s read the book of Matthew 9:4, It says, "Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said, why do you entertain evil thoughts in your hearts?

That reading brings us to today’s topic_ "MIND CONTROL",

Are you there? Everyone say "neighbor! mind control!"

Jesus told them, “why do you entertain; why don’t you avoid that kind of thinking?” In other words, He was meaning that they have power to control their thoughts and minds. Then He asked them, “Why do you entertain such evil thoughts? Why do you entertain unproductive thoughts? Why do you misuse your thoughts?” Are you there!

The engine of the person’s life in a physical living is the mind. Your mind leads you somewhere. Are you there!!

So the topic is mind control. To have control over your mind, helps you to be focused. It inspires you, it leads you somewhere. Your life is led by your mind. The thoughts of man, feed the spirit. What you keep thinking is what empowers your soul.
Every one say 'neighbor!!! what you keep thinking is what empowers your soul.'
Your soul is your spirit. If your spirit has a certain power, that power manifests in a physical being. Are you there!!

It all begins with the mind. What you think and what you encourage yourself to think, is what will feed your soul. And what your soul processes, is what will determine your physical manifestation.
You may be blessed if God designed you as a blessed person but fail to see the manifestation of your blessings. And yet they tell you, you are blessed but you don’t see the blessings. It means there is a power that you have given to your heart and to your soul to determine your destiny. Are you there!!

 

If your mind tells you that you are poor, even if you have billions of money you will stay poor. You will fail to buy a shirt yet on your account you have a billion shillings and you will say please, can you take my trouser and they put a kiraaka. (patch) Are you there!!

 

If your mind is perversive, even if you have one hundred wives you will add on more other five and shortly there-after one month you will add another one. It’s all from the mind.

Say neighbor, mind control. The mind of man is too slippery. You can think many things in five minutes. You think of this, that and many others. The mind is too slippery, you have to bring it back to what you want it to do at a particular given time. Are you there? Say neighbor, you must bring back the minds to what you are thinking about. It might be that you are seated in public in a gentle meeting, a very important meeting and you begin thinking obscene things, starting to imagine those people in the meeting how they are dressed and how they are behaving. In the meeting of one hour, you will take fifty minutes imagining your colleagues how they look like especially when naked. Say neighbor woo!!!

If you don’t bring the mind back it can take the whole hour thinking something which is off topic. And when they ask you to contribute, you have no point to bring. Say neighbor woo!!

Are you there? So devil uses the mind so much to mislead us. If you encourage your mind to think what is useless to your life, your life will be full of useless things. Are you there!! When your mind is taken up by some thoughts, you need to come back to your senses so fast that you may think over what you are thinking. Is it good for you? Does it help you in any way? If you realize that it’s not useful, don’t entertain it. Control your mind. Say neighbor mind control. Are you there?

Let’s read the book of Titus 1:15. Let’s see what it says,

TITUS 1.15, “To the pure all things are pure but to those who are corrupt and believe nothing are pure, In fact all their minds are defiled.”
Are you there? Those who are pure their life is pure. Their things are pure. So that’s why I say, “Purity is in the mind.” Everything begins with the mind. Are you there!! If your life has no vision or focus, truly your mind will take you in any direction. Are you there!! Devil will come and inspire his will. Make you watch obscene, even bring for you films which are obscene. There are some people who want to watch blue movies all the time and yet they are born-again, after Sunday service one watches blue movies, obviously your mind shall be contaminated. And if your mind is impure, it will reflect in your living. Are you there?

They will say, this person has this but there’s something wrong with this person. It means your mind brought in something else.

The mind is the factory of your acts. Your acts are produced by your mind when they are ready for deliverance then they manifest and mislead your life. Are you there? Everyone tap your neighbor and say neighbor, your mind is your factory of your acts. Your thoughts will manifest when they have grown.

So there’s need to control their lives. There’s away devil hits our minds with thoughts which are evil. He can hit your mind with sorrow or hatred that out of the twenty four hours of your day, you have twenty hours to think about your enemies on how they are doing badly against you and 4hours to sleep dreaming about your enemies.

Say neighbor woo! Devil will make you think that you are hated and have so many enemies then your heart will grow with anger, every time and everyone you will look at , you will think that that person is your enemy.

Are you there? You find that out of the twenty four hours, you are busy doing your work or business but your mind is not there. Your mind is where your enemies are then your heart is filled with anger so it will turn out into financial failure and it may reflect into sickness and diseases. When a heart is full of sickness and disease. After a while Satan plants pressure or any other sickness.
Are you there? But it all begins with the mind. You wake up in the morning very sorrowful thinking about the dead, if my dad or mum was around, I don’t know this life. Out of the twenty four hours, you begin the morning with lamenting and thinking about those who died. You’re living among the dead. Are you there?

Am I throwing bombs? That’s what they call the truth and the truth is what sets you free! If you learn to control your mind, when you’re dreaming about the dead people just know that you cannot bring them back because they are already gone and they are also waiting for your death. Don’t think about them, just put your mind on things you want to see in life. Are you there?

Hallelujah! The Lord is good..... and all the time!

The authority of man that God gave him, the power God gave man is in the mind. God will not disturb your mind because that’s where He based the authority and gave it to you. Satan knows that that’s where your power lies so he will come and destroy your thoughts with anything that makes you lose focus. Are you there?

The time you give to your thoughts or something that you give time to think about is what you know more and what you don’t give thoughts to, you don’t know it. Even if you do it but without giving it thoughts or control your minds to give it consideration, it will not yield results.

The whites are so focused that they think about something until they design something out of it. Someone thinks that you can go in space with something which flies (Aeroplane), and he knows that you can have something and speak through it (microphones) hence thousands of people are hearing you when it has no wires.
He knows you can press some numbers +256...... and then you call within two seconds you are already in America speaking,

“Hullo how are you doing? How is winter? We are here in Uganda eating cassava.”

Someone takes time to think about how you can press numbers and something happens that will be useful. Are you there?

The person of positive mind, when you see someone with a problem, you don’t speak or laugh about it but you think of how you can help. You give it thoughts and come out with a solution that will be the source of your wealth. But people who have negative minds, every problem they see about others they just laugh. Say neighbor woo!
Hallelujah! Everyone tap your neighbor and say neighbour bring back your mind to church. Control your minds.
You know any person who wants to see a line that’s useful or which has a purpose, the secret is to look into your mind.
The biggest struggle you have in your life is the mind because that’s where Satan attacks. The other things which you see are just symptoms of your neglect to your life. All the things you see are symptoms of all the neglect to your mind.

Don’t allow your mind to put in you what you don’t deserve to have. Bring it back, put it back in what your life wants to be or consider it to your vision and give it more thoughts. After thinking God first, the second thing is about the purpose of your life.
Are you there? The importance of your life is in your mind. If you contribute a positive thing, they will say that this person is very important. If you design good things, they say this person is good for us but they all came because your thoughts were about them. So the importance of your life to be considered important is your mind. If God has honored you but when you don’t put your mind in proper use, people will make jest of you. “That old man thinks like a child. That person is our leader but he is useless because he has no time to think about his leadership.” All the time you’re thinking about your enemies on how to fight them and you also think about perversion, many greedy things, you lose your importance. Say neighbor; Put your mind to proper use.

When your mind is going astray, you only realize if you have a vision, focus and inspired. The time you spend going off, get to know that your inspiration has come down. Your mind will begin rotating if you are not inspired. The devil will look into it and he gets to know that you have no purpose and inspiration, so he plans something. You’ll start thinking obscene, imagining your enemies and problems, you start feeling sorrow for those who died because you’re not inspired. You are not inspired about your life or business and you don’t think about it. When you sit, you think about only the poverty you have and the losses you had is what you speak first. “I have been carrying losses this business is too hard.”
But there are those who are making it. As you are saying that “the business is hard”, some people are building big houses. Some others are buying cars and for you you are saying that “the city is very hard.” And you want to go to the village to dig cassava. Say neighbor woo!
Hallelujah! Say neighbor mind control. Don’t allow your mind to think what will not help you. When you see it going to sorrow, you say, “No please that’s not the purpose of my life.” Think about the business, “How shall we have a breakthrough? Who has made it that I can go and copy or see and get inspired by that person?”
You decide what to watch on your television. “Let me watch adventures and learn how they make them or to inspire me.”
I told you if your mind is going off all the time, get to know you’re not inspired, focused and you have no vision. In case you have them, you’re not taking it serious.

Mind control. When you see your mind going off bring it back. You say, “Come back to my vision, purpose and focus.” Once you keep practicing it, after a while you’ll start seeing the results of your good living and thoughts then they’ll say that you’re wise because you took time to think. Everyone who takes time to think will be wise and a person who doesn’t take time to think wisely at one time, you’ll abuse yourself that “what I did was a foolish thing.”

Everyone rise up your hands and say, “Jesus, reset my minds and put it in the position that will move me and pleasing to you, reset my mind and put it in a position that will help me prosper in the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.”

Every problem brought by Satan to your life, it simply wants you to lose focus and occupy your mind with what will not help you. You find that 1, 2, 3, 4 to 5 years no change in life. It means that your factory is under attack.
When you see that your mind is going off and when it is not concentrating, get to know that the enemy has come in so stop him at that level and don’t allow him to show his manifestation in a powerful way.
Anything you do in your life if you want to excel in it, give it time. The best time you can give is your mind. There are times you can think better when you’re on your bed or seated somewhere else.
Best thinking changes from time to time, environment to environment. If you put your mind in the right thoughts, you will get to know whom you need as your friend. There’s a friend who can make you laugh that you put off stress, a friend who can advise you and help you to use what you have to use. They are all sorts of friends but they will be depending on how you handle your life.
Someone you can think about as your enemy is your best friend because he is the one who tells where you’re going wrong and then you say, “Please don’t bother me for you’re not my boss.” But God has brought that person to you to show you where you are going astray. Control your mind:

some of the ways you can control your mind;

1. Is by inspiring yourself, encouraging yourself into that thing which you’re focusing yourself onto.
   You say, “I must think about it.” And as the minds goes off you bring them back.
   Sometimes we are inspired by the advices given to us, by what we watch, read and listen to also inspires us too. So any person who wants to see a life which is developing, make sure that you’re inspired. Never allow your life to be there without inspiration. Make sure that whenever you are awake, you are inspired. Don’t say that “because I am working somewhere, I can’t be inspired.” Remember that you’re getting old and you need to invest but the best investment is a well thought of investment and something you have thought of properly is your best investment because no challenge will put you down.


2. Another way you can put your mind back is through prayer. You ask the Holy Spirit our helper, comforter to drive away that evil spirit and evil power which misdirects your mind. There is where you have no self power and when it is too much for you, you ask the Holy spirit by saying, “Holy spirit in the Name of Jesus Christ, enter me with your fire and consume this devil of evil thoughts.”
   Are you there? You can also rebuke it by saying, “Evil thoughts come out of my mind. If your heart is meaning it, it will go away. What I am giving you is what will give you everlasting prosperity and to help you sustain your blessings. Today you must go back when you are blessed. You need to control your minds.


3. If you see your mind is not stable enough, look for a cool place whereby sometimes they put Air conditioner in the offices to make your mind sound. At times because the blood flow is too high, it makes you a bit dull. Sometimes if you want to control your mind which has gone bazaak go in a cool place.
   In developed countries, during the winter season they work more. “I was with a Denmark man who told me that “the secret of my success is winter because during winter I concentrate and I think straight”.
   But here in Uganda, we have rain and sun at times when it is raining it is even hot so what do we need? Do we need freezers! But there is an A.C ( Air Conditioner) which you can switch on and the place becomes cool and sit there until your hands start shivering….so you sit down and think and then your level of thinking will be high there you are energized


4. Another way you can streamline your minds is by being slapped. Your mind will get back in order. That’s true the reason why slap exists is to put you back in order. Slap is a medicine to streamline your minds. If your mind is thinking this or that, look for a slap but what some people do they hit their heads so slap is a good medicine.

In those developed countries, there is where I saw when they made a hand and then they tied it and when it’s loosened, you draw closer to it while closing your eyes and then it slaps you! after wards you come back when your mind is thinking sraight.
You can energize your mind, when you do so; you have energized your focus and future.
So learn to control your mind, don’t allow it to rule over you, control it and the strength you have to control your mind is the strength you have to control your life. Whatever you go through it has something to do with the mind.
END.

BE SETTLED

Say neighbor be settled.
Jeremiah 29:4-6 “This is what the Lord Almighty, The God of Israel says, to all those I carried into Exile from Jerusalem to Babylon. Build houses and settle down, plant gardens and eat what they produce. Marry and have sons and daughters, find wives for your sons and give your daughters in Marriage so that they too may have sons and Daughters. Increase in number there, do not Decrease.”

Hallelujah
The topic is be settled.
The Lord was telling them that though you are in foreign country, though they were in exile, though you are where you don’t belong be settled so that you progress, because He knew that if they don’t settle they would keep themselves in lamenting all the time, they would keep reflecting where they have come from thus do nothing where they are.

If you are not settled you can not do much where you are because you will be thinking of where you left instead of where you are and this will limit progress. That’s why the principle of God is settlement. If you are settled you will concentrate and produce good fruits.

        Everything you have has some fruits, where you are it could be just a journey leading you to somewhere but if you don’t recognize it, if you don’t settle into it you will get stuck. Are you there?

Setlement helps one to build ability, it helps to increase on your knowledge if you are settled you will make the right response, the right decision to the challenges before you. Are you there? If you are not settled obviously every challenge that comes before you, you will make wrong response.

              So many people live unsettled lives that they are not settled with their spouses to an extent that they still doubt their children. You find a man looking at the toes of the child wondering whether that child is his!!. Say neighbor woo!.

There are some people who are very unsettled in mind. Some one leaves a beautiful woman on the bed he goes for the house girl.

Say neighbor woo!. The body has a lot of demands for which you will never satisfy. You must settle first if you are to discipline your body. It has endless lust. Are you there?.

Unless you are settled, you will never satisfy. It will demand this you get it, it will demand another until it leads you to destruction.
But if you are settled, you will have focus. Are you there?
If you are settled you know what you want and you strive for what you want, you pursue your vision because your heart is settled. When you are settled you make right decision, make right responses.  Are you there? Aperson who is not a settled is not reliable, can do anything at anytime.
So many people lack spiritual settlements, they lack spiritual settlement. They go to church but at the same time they have witch craft. That is lack of spiritual settlement, Such can lead you to danger. If you lack spiritual settlement you are in trouble because God is too jealousy, He does not share you with anyone. And if you are in witch craft, witchcraft is so fearful, It knows if you go to Jesus' side it will be destroyed. So it destroys you faster than you think. Are you there?
And if you are spiritually unsettled and you end up on the dark side, there are very many demands, they tell you "bring this, bring that…," they ask for chicken and eggs, you bring them, they ask you for milk and the cow. Are you there? They see you bringing and they say bring goats and sheep. If you are not tired they say bring your child. Say neighbor woo!
 
If you are not spiritually settled you are in trouble. The advise I give you;- SETTLE IN JESUS CHRIST. say neighbour settle in JesusChrist. If you settle in Jesus your faith will grow, you will have more knowledge about Him, you will be empowered.
Nothing shall overcome you, no weapon shall prosper against you because the hand of the Lord is upon your life, the owner of the universe.
You need to have knowledge about Him, you need to have faith in Him but it will all come when you are settled in Him, when you’ve convinced your mind that He is not an alternative. He’s everything. Are you there?
Say neighbor turn to Jesus, settle in Jesus,

                   Hallelujah!
In Jesus there is healing, blessing, deliverance and light. You walk knowing where to go, you think rightly. Are you there?
You know whom to inquire from but if you don’t settle in Jesus they will make you sleep on graves until the snakes bite you overthere. Say neighbor woo! Hallelujah.

WHAT IT TAKES
There was a time a man married a certain woman and this man was a business man so he used to go away from home several times. So the daughter would call him but whenever she would call, someone else would pick the phone, She told her mum, mum Dad is dating someone.

The woman became so furious, she called the clan members and the neighbors to come and admonish. People gathered and the woman was so furious saying today I am divorcing this man. But I want to go when everyone is right in my decision. All the clan men gathered and the woman called the daughter, she said now let this young girl tell you everything. The girl said, "Yes, I have been calling Dad everyday and another woman would pick the phone." And the dad said, "eeh young girl who has lied to you?" The girl said, "it’s true." So the clan leader asked the young girl of what the woman would tell her. Then the young girl said, "the subscriber you’re calling cannot be reached at this moment please try again later."

This story leads us to today's topic, WHAT IT TAKES.

If we read the book of MATTHEW 7:7
MATHEW 7:7

" Ask, and it shall be given to you; Seek, and you shall find; Knock and it shall be opened unto you."
You know in life, we need to get to certain heights; we need to get into a certain path.

We have read Mathew 7:7, as Christians, the first thing we depend on is what it takes of us to make it. You first depend on God. How do you depend on God? We depend on God through prayer . It takes prayer to make it.
But remember everyone prays, Christians pray, Moslems pray everyone pray. Even the prayers some of them have gone now to “wongo” (witchcraft) They have time on Sunday to go and dance naked.
Prayer is a very important thing in life. Before you take any step out, involve God in your affairs. Stand by prayer; be a person of prayer, prayer establishes a kind of world you want to live in. Remember as humans we have limitations.
You can have a plan, without proper planning but through prayer we can bring our GOD closer. He brings us wisdom, inspires us, we think in a wise way and probably encourages our hearts. Are you there!!
Depending on what you want to pursue either good or bad, you involve God through prayer. It means a Christian to make it you need to depend on God, you depend on his words.
So many of us we are failing because we don’t want to pray. When they get a bible that’s when they snooze. The enemy knows once we get these words they will make it.
When you get on your bed at night you don’t want to wake up. At the time of prayer, that’s when sleeping becomes so sweet. The enemy knows if you pray, you will make it.
Prayer is the source of power, when you’re praying it does not mean that you’re going to cry to God. Oh God give me wealth, oh God help, God help me. You know so many people they say “abakungubazi” ( lamenters) are people who cry to God.
A prayer which involves the Holy Spirit is the prayer that establishes, builds. For example you need to know where the power of establishment lies, in the word of God, where does God say, that you touch and it shall happen.
You depend on what God says; there are so many scriptures so-so many during the creation of the world. How did God begin? You read Genesis and you read how God established the world.
How did He start in the beginning, God created the heaven and earth, the earth was without form and void, and then God said let there be light and there was light.
A person who believe the power of God, you meditate upon it in your heart and say; God said let there be light and there was light. If that is how you believe indeed it works.
That’s how it started He started by establishing it by his confession, then as you read your words, the word of God and say ; God I thank you, then God said let there be light and it was; then you meditate, let there be light and it was.

It is the acquiring of power, because when you’re meditating your thoughts, your soul and body they will be in agreement. Do you know that you can pray and your mind is still in something else. Do you know that? It means that you’re not yet together. You’re not yet in power, you’re still divided.
Power comes when you are all together. You start by confessing it, let there be a boutique in the name of Jesus Christ. As you walk in your room before even you rent the place. Let there be a very successful boutique in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. God Holy Spirit, let there be a successful, not a mere boutique, but a successful one, you mention what you want to see but a successful one.
That’s how they pray to establish when you turn to God, you say God give me the strength to run a boutique that carries your name.

When you’re speaking to God, oh God give me, you ask with strength. But the power to establish comes from our confession, Let there be.
But I tell you whatever you’re saying in that prayer, fasting and praying you’re establishing it now in the spirit. It means when you’re moving, your spirit will lead you to where it will work successful, you will just be moving and then get a shop and you say God let me put something here, what?, you moved first and you are asking God to come in. What if you make wrong steps? You want him to back it, no it does not work that way.
Even God said let’s make man in our own image. After making that confession in Genesis chapter2 (two), He went and got dust and formed that man. He first confessed it then He formed the man.
That is the power of establishing through prayer. It sounds empty but it works.

Prayer is very important, because even the wicked one, they know they have to involve themselves in the event of stealing. They give themselves to witchcraft; they go to all rubbish and establish their business. What about Christians? You have also your ways so prayer is one of the ways of what it takes.
When your mind is stuck, go into prayer; ask God who gives wisdom the Lord who sent you to dominate the earth will help you. So there is need for being prayerful.
Even in your life, in your prayers, plan your prayer line. Write your prayer down on how you’re going to run the day. You know by 4:00am I will be praying establishing the day. Saying Lord Jesus Christ, this is your day from the rising of the sun until the time it sets your name shall be praised. Send your angels to go and work with me, establish me as the righteous, God wants to see righteous people wealthy and healthy. But many people don’t get involved. Wake up in the morning and wash your face and rush to work , They work on their face for one hour and pray for seconds. Rushing because time is gone. That’s how they’ve programmed themselves.

As a way of making it, involve God in everything you are doing, He will really develop you for His own purpose.
When He knows it will not work for you, He will discourage you and the He opens another path because you’ve involved Him, but many people don’t want to pray, they think prayer is just ba-ba-ba, but prayer is the first priority.

Don’t think those people who have riches they have peace. Work so hard get a lot of money but there is something lacking. They don’t know God has denied them spirit of content. They have everything but they see nothing. In your righteousness God will give you a spirit of content, you’re progressing but not with struggle. ARE YOU THERE!!

WHAT IT TAKES.........IT TAKES PRAYER....

HARD KNOCK SPIRITUAL WARRIOR

ISAIAH 42:13
The Lord will match out like a Mighty man, like a warrior He will stir up, with a shout He will rise a battle cry and will triumph over His enemies.
That reading brings us to today’s topic; HARD KNOCK SPIRITUAL WARRIOR

The Lord Almighty says, He comes out like a mighty warrior, to triumph over His enemies. If that’s the way of God Almighty then it must be our way too.
You know, what you have to learn that humans are spiritual beings who dwell in the flesh. You know once you realize that you’re

a spiritual being and you also dwell in the flesh, do not neglect any of the two, do not neglect the physical part, and do not neglect the spiritual part.
The spiritual part is what paves the way to what the physical may implement. The spiritual part of it paves the way, creates the way for the physical one to implement.
So the bible has said, the zeal for His kingdom, for the zeal of His glory and triumphs over His enemies.

If the lord has His enemies what about you. So it means you must be a warrior in your godly nature, you were created in the image of God it means you have a spirit of God in you. So that spiritual part of you should be a warrior and then the physical part will appear to be humble yet too powerful.
If you become so aggressive in your physical nature it is very good but you’re likely to make very many mistakes, you’re likely to make so many mistakes. But if you’re aggressive in spirit you will save your flesh from so many mistakes.

What am I saying, you will feel like doing something but because your spirit is true if what you’re going to do is wrong, if what you’re going to do is going to affect you, your spirit will refuse you to do it. You say I want to do it but something inside me is saying I should not because your spiritual being is too sensitive and directs your life.

A hard Knock spiritual warrior is a person who has focus of life, you know what you need, you design your life and say this is what I want to live for and this is what I will die for and you start moving towards that in your prayer life and in your physical life.

You get to know the steps you need to take.
You cannot be a warrior in spirit yet in the physical you don’t know what you want, you may end up misdirecting your life.

Everyday you’re asking your life what I should do, should I go for studies, I look for a job or I should do my own business?

You don’t know what you want; you’re on a street looking for a job at the sme time you go in “a kikuubo”(market street) looking for a business.

If you’re to live for a career, pursue it, if you’re to live for a business pursue it but as you pursue it, let you’re spiritual being participate like a warrior, otherwise in this world, if you do not turn up to be a spiritual warrior there are so many enemies in your way, there are so many giants in your way who want to make you fail, there are so many wolves standing in your way. But how do you remove them? Your prayer life clears your way.

Never take anything for granted, anything you’re doing never take it for granted. In anything to do with you be a spiritual warrior.
Life is not a picnic, I have always told you this, anything you do in your life be determined to succeed. Success and failure lies in your hands, you can succeed or fail.
But still in your failure God will see that He fulfills His purpose, in your success He will still see that His purpose is done. So what am saying? Success and failure lies in your hands
God knows He has given you power to control your life, your spiritual being and your physical being, but do not joke with any of them.
A prayerful warrior, even if you were so much in darkness, even if Satan has so much put you in captivity, prayer breaks it all, there is nothing too heavy for prayers.

I have seen people whom God had rejected at first and they pray, they seek Him so earnestly and they cross more than the real children of God. I have seen people whom God has rejected because of their family background because of their evil acts but when they turn to prayer with a serious heart, God revives them.
No one is too good and too bad for God, this one is proved by the scripture of MATHEW 8:10-12

MATHEW 8:10-12 “When Jesus heard this, He was astonished and said to those following Him I tell you the truth I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith, I say to you that many will come from the West and the East.”
This scripture tells us that one who determines His relationship with God will make it, however much that person may seem to be, even if that person has a very funny background.

I have an example of some friend in U.S this man is a Moslem but I usually pray for different people, but I get surprised God answers this man more, more than the born-again christian. Then I said eeh, but if you also compare his acts, he supports us more than the born –again. That man can give up everything if he realizes there is need for anything here and he knows I don’t want to ask for support, so what he does he looks for someone around to find out what the church needs and buys it compared to the borngains.
So that is why I tell you, those who are committed in Christ they usually see a difference but those who are there just like a tradition they don’t see it.
A hard knock spiritual warrior it means someone who persists in the spiritual life, you get to know what you want and stick to it in your prayer either you see it today or don’t see it you persist.
If water happens to fall on this cement continuously in the same place, however hard this cement may seem to be and the water is soft that cement at one time it will start cracking. Do you know that? Just water, it falls, continuously this cement will crack, after a while cement starts weakening and it…………In the same way if you’re a serious person, you don’t pray one ,two, three, after all the Lord has not answered me, you must continue throwing your prayer until you see results.

You can wait for a certain answer for whatever period of time and this answer thou it has delayed by the time it comes, it turns your entire life and you overcome everything and you get better than someone who has been getting answers for the last ten years. You get one answer like this and you get a turning point for your life because you know what you need, you know that if I get this I can get so many branches out of it.

 

Jesus gave us a story of a man. That there is a man who had a friend and a friend got a visitor at night and the friend was looking for what to feed with the visitor. So He had to go to the neighbourhood at midnight the neighbour said "please I am sleeping with my children and my wife." The neighbour continued knocking until the man said let me go and give him what he wants and I rest. Jesus said pray with boldness.
LUKE 11:8-9 “I tell you thou he will not get up and give him the bread because he is his friend, yet because of the man’s boldness he will get up and give him as much as he needs. So I say to you ask and it will be given to you, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened to you.”

Hallelujah, Ask, knock, seek Jesus gave us that story, that person would give him not because he is his friend but because of the disturbance. Disturb your God in your prayer.
You know when you’re praying to God do not consider Him as a small thing, that angers Him, as if you’re praying to a small God.

If God appears to you, you cannot live, even just an Angel to appear to you, you can faint.

What happened to Daniel? Daniel was looking for understanding, praying to God through fasting and prayer. When an Angel appeared, he could not turn his eyes to look at him. Even after the Angel had left, Daniel remained sick, he could not go to work, he was still disturbed by the vision he saw.


DANIEL 8:27 “I Daniel was exhausted and lay ill for several days, then I got up and went about the king’s business, I was a palled by the vision.”
But you find someone praying le, le, le, le! not serious at all! If God appears to you, you cannot stay standing. So move Him in the way, you understand Him. Don’t pray to Him as if you’re asking a person in a taxi park.

If you don’t have enough words in prayer; you just have a prayer place, get your bible read, think about what you have read, read again, think about it, read again as you put in few words.

WHY TWO

John 15:16-17

"You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit, fruit that will last. Then the father will give you whatever you ask in my name. This is my command, Love each other."

The lord our God says, you did not choose me but I chose you that you may bear fruits. The lord has brought you here that you may bear fruits he said, “Then the father will give you whatever you ask in my name. but this is my command love each other.”

What was Jesus meaning, why did he begin that, You did not choose me l am the one who chose you, that you may bear fruits that whatever you ask you will have it and he further on said; but love each other each other. What is the logic behind it?
Remember one tree cannot make a forest, one person cannot reproduce, can you produce when you are alone? You either need a bull or what? So this one brings us to today’s topic; WHY TWO
By God's design, you cannot make it alone, by God’s design it is a natural way. However strong you may be, you need some weak people to whom you will prove that you are strong. However wise you may seem to be you need some foolish people you can display your wisdom to, if you are all wise you will have arguments throughout.
If you are all strong you will fight with no one, Are you there!!! So by nature, to succeed, your success is connected with some other people. That is why you see during voting seasons; they have to look for people to support them so that they become what they want to be, the same way, without the support of the people you cannot be there.
What does it demand? What does it require? Let there be love! Let there be love!

 

One tree cannot make a forest."WHY TWO?" Why do you have two eyes, why do you have two ears, why do you have to be different from others, why is it that someone has a soft and another one has a hard body, why should you have beards and another one has no beards, why should we have breasts and another one has bare chest. Why two, why two legs why two hands????

God has a reason, the reason is communicating to you that you cannot make it alone. If one of your eyes has a problem the other eye will be in trouble, if you have a problem with your finger the whole hand may swell to display agony;
Your success is connected somewhere with someone whom you need to discover.
If a broom has one stick, it cannot sweep well; the stick will just make stripes. But if they are many it will remove dust.
If you want to remove dust in a physical way you need to connect yourself to people who matter. You need to connect yourself, you need to have love, you need to be friendly. That is why if Satan strikes you with rejection, he has truly hindered your development. That is why devil drives us with anger that you may separate yourself from others. That is why he treasures in rejection with bitterness, in un forgiveness.

The disciples asked Jesus, “How many times should we forgive?” He told them how many times, how many eeh I don’t hear you? It is 70x7, but he added that whenever someone asks for forgiveness forgive, because He knows that If you do not forgive, you will keep disconnecting yourself from people who would be useful to you. I may annoy you today but tomorrow I may be of use in one way or another.

I may annoy you today, tomorrow; I may be of use so forgive me. Just forgive me, remember tomorrow, I may forgive you. if you don’t forgive it means you don’t believe there is a solution it means you are totally depending on that, once you forgive it means your heart knows there is a solution, once you forgive it mean you acknowledge the truth that you are not perfect also because there is no one perfect.
The lord Jesus said love, if you don’t love you will fight without knowing that no one is perfect. Yes connection is the way to success, that is the reason "why two?" why did God connect it like that? He said man cannot be alone, people use it for their pervasive intensions but God was meaning man needs to be connected to each other a woman can be connected to a woman for the sake of success.
There was a man he was a bit old he was about 56 yrs , so he was a poor man, he had married a lady , but they had never gone for introduction. So, one time his wife happened to have a party at her home and the man suggeseted to his wife, “we are hungry, the children are not going to school the land lord is on our case, since were living together, we need to plan together”.

The man said, “You go to your home and find out the budget of that party and we plan according to that budget”. So the woman went home and she came and said, “Yeah, on that budget, there is some good money for entertainers.” so the man said, “You go and tell them you are going to take that responsibility,” so the man said. “You know what I am going to do, since they don’t know me let me go and entertain them even if I am a “MUKO”( their in-law) they don’t know me.” so the woman said, “How are you going to entertain them?” He said, “You don’t worry just leave that for me.” Then the man, got a CD, they put some tracks, on the party they got some disco for him.

He gave in his CD, but he was dressed in a very funny way; he tacked in his trouser in the stockings he was putting on, the stockings were too long almost up to the waist, then he also tacked in his shirt he put on a ribbon on his head and the sun glasses. Unfortunately it was not sunny, according to the programme, he was supposed to come in at 8:00pm, So he came with his glasses, started dancing while shaking the legs for 30 minutes Without changing the stroke, they said, “Who is this entertainer, he is not changing the stroke? And they said, “Please change the stroke.

Then he put the hands behind him and started dancing while shaking the legs the more. And they said may be the song is bad, bring another song, the other one was like lingala, now they brought a song of this MESARCH, this one kankutendereze Ssebo, again the guy made the same stroke making money there, Then the wife was in the kitchen not knowing what the husband was doing. And some people said, we know this man, isn’t this “MUKO” the guy started tightening his sun gaggles because he heard some people say isn’t this “muko”? He continued dancing, So as he was dancing people started shouting eeh bring the car someone needs to be taken to the hospital .Then the dancer realized his wife could have got a problem he ran away from dancing remember he was pretending not to be “omuko” he went to see the wife, the MUKO hit a wife in the back the wife vomited meat. The ‘MUKO” said,” I know my wife when she gets where there is meat, so they said, “ okay, so sister you were planning with your husband to come and rob us.”

say neighbour wooooh!
But what matters is that they agreed and connected to each other. "Why two?" Your success is connected to someone, you may sit there thinking what should I do not minding to pray for divine connection. Who God has designed to be a blessing to you. You may be pursuing something that will put you in failure. You are pursuing it for one year, 2 , 3, 4, 10yrs, no change.
It means there is something wrong somewhere as you plan for your success connect yourself to people who matter

A broom cannot sweep when it is just a stick unless it becomes a bundle, one tree cannot make forest.

So by God’s designs, by nature you must be one by one. We are one another’s strength. You are my strength and I am your strength. So please let’s love each other, where there is love there is care where there is love there is support, where there is love there is giving, Where there is love, rumors do not prevail.

That is why our lord Jesus Christ said, “Love each other.” What has caused many homes to fail , people get married but they do not agree. This one is planning this and the other one planning the other, that home cannot succeed. The more you prosper the more you get a part, let me do my own things, you will get them but at one point, they will draw you away from your home they will put you a way from your spouse.

Where there is love there is sharing and then success comes forth.
They say, two heads are better than one. If everyone does his or her things in a better way, I can tell you, you cannot avoid getting there, success shall be your way of life. Wherever you are how do you germinate? By first creating relationships which are mutual, don’t be a woman and prostitute yourself to a man, you get to know that Relationship will end very fast because that relationship, eventually becomes full of emotions. The love Jesus is talking about is not that one, the one he is talking about is mutual love of God's love, the way you can love a child is the kind of love he is talking about, you love others the way you love yourself. That one will be a connection. It will teach you how to forgive, you will find out that you are imperfect. As you are not perfect there is need for relationship.

Where there is imperfection, there is need for connection, because you know you are not perfect where I cannot do this so and so can, so let me get connected to that person. Don’t connect where you are not a beneficiary that is the truth. Connect to that which will support you.
"WHY TWO"

REFORMED HEART, REFORMED LIFE
ECCLESIASTES, 9: 11
"I have seen something else under the sun, the race is not to the swift  or the battle to the strong,

or  does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant or favour to the  learnt; But time and chance happen to them all."

                  They have told us that they have learnt that under the sun, the race is not to the swiftiest or the strong are better in battle; nor food is only for the wise or favor for the learnt.  Yet in our understanding as humans; me I think the faster runner is the best. I think the strongest is the best warrior. And I think the most learnt are the ones who get the best jobs; that is what I think.

 

So this leads us to our topic of today; which says, "Reformed heart; Reformed life”

If you want your life to change, it starts from the heart. Once you change your heart, your life will change.  You change your heart for bad, your life shall change for the worst. You change your heart for good; your life shall change for good. Say neighbour reformed life comes from reformed heart. Are you there!!
The lord our God looks at our hearts, if you want to win his favour, his grace, it is all from the heart. Once you reform your heart, shaping it according to his word; truly your life will change.
Once you shape your life, according to the word of God, life will be shaped. Once you shape your heart according to the word of God; your life shall change to the best.

You know many people go to Prayer Mountains; they want to go everywhere, wonder where they can get God. God is so close to you, He is knocking at your heart; saying please put a seat for me; that I can sit over there. And once Jesus sits in you; your life shall transform.

ACTS: 13:22
After removing soul, he made David their king. He testified concerning him: ` I have found David son of Jesse a man after my own heart; he will do everything I want him to do.’

Amen! The Lord said, I have found David the son of Jesse; who is after my own heart; he will do all that I want. This teaches us that a reformed heart is a heart that is after God. It's a heart that is after God's will.

And once God detects that your heart is after him, he will do anything through you, because he will command you to do and you will do it. You will not doubt.

 

The only way we can win God’s trust; is to depend on him .The one who depends on God in good and bad times; knows God is God.

 One who depends on God in bad times; knows God is God. What I’m I saying?

A reformed heart is a reformed life .It means once you reform your heart according to the under standing of God; you are shaping your life.

The other wise man told us, "The race is not for the swiftest, favor is not for the most learnt," there is something above that. But we achieve it only through reforming our hearts.

Once you don’t reform your heart, you say I’m born again, some people fast for so many days you hear 40 days, 60 days they fast Daniel’s fasting Moses’ fasting. 
The secret I am telling   you is about reforming the heart, when you are serving God, your heart must be sincere, he will use you. But if your heart is there to make some liquid *money* you will never get there.
 
2 Corinthians 5:17
"There fore, one who is in Christ, is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!"

Anyone who is in Christ Jesus is a new creation; the old has gone the new has come. you do not just say, "Lord today I take you as my personal Lord and savoiur" and then you think that’s enough; no there you are just trying to say lord I love you and there He will look at you to confirm what you have said, that requires you to start changing your heart .

If you have been taking beer, it starts smelling bad for you, if you have been planning to open-up a bar, you will not do that, because your heart has now changed; It has become a new heart, all the bad habits have gone, all the good habits have come.

A reformed heart is reformed life, once you don’t reform your heart you can not reform your life.
You can become born again and even life becomes worse and confused and then you see those who are achieving it, and you say they are using demons, because your heart remained in Egypt, it never crossed to the promised position.

You see your life is stuck, things are not working out. God is telling you you are not yet there, you are only presenting your physical appearance, you are only proclaiming with your lips but your soul is not in the promised position.

The position God is talking about is not structures but it is the position of the heart. Do you depend on him? Do you know that once you speak his word it shall work out for you?

Some people say oh! Lord Jesus, Satan has lifted dust, please help me! Satan has nonsense to those who believe, therefore, once you believe, Satan is no longer an issue.

How can I be concerned about the president of Kenya, either he is...whatever that’s up to him, you hear some people learning more about Satan, in their home cells there is nakalondo! this one who comes in a mosquito, a mosquito has it's own disease, you say now it has bitten me, the demon has bitten me, and you get fever and you go to shrines.

 A reformed heart is a reformed life; so many people refuse to bring out witchcraft for destruction, only because they think they will run mad, their hearts are still in Egypt.

What about us who burn it everyday, why are we not mad? Probably we could be mad before you.
 If you want to win the favour of God, Just be willing to reform according to his word, get time close yourself in your prayer room, read his word as you speak to him.

He said, be humble and you will be entertained by the heavens. You don’t say, "God I know you so much. I have been a born again for 30 yrs what have I achieved. You are unfair! God you are not fair." He will say “I am fair because what I promise I always fulfill it when I promise to give you life through the sun, I always fulfill it.
I bring day that you may go and work, I bring night that you may rest. I have given you legs, eyes, hands, with all the faculties and you are 100% normal, how unfaithful am I?"

A heart that pleases God is a loving heart, humble heart, a merciful heart and a heart that trusts in him, his word.
