Have you ever found yourself on your knees, feeling like you've lost the battle of faith? We've all been there, and it's those moments that can either break us or forge us into something stronger. In our heartfelt episode, we peel back the layers of spiritual struggle, drawing on the trials of David and the comforting verses of Psalms and Isaiah. We hold space for the recognition of our falls, and most importantly, we share the profound understanding that it's in our vulnerability that we truly find God's strength and guidance. Join us as we traverse the rocky terrain of faith, reminding you that it's not about the number of times we stumble but the resolve with which we rise.
Weariness can sometimes engulf even the most devout heart, and it's then that we must shed our masks and lay trust in the divine plan. Through the narratives of Elijah's exhaustion and Abraham's impatience, we underline the essential lesson of God's impeccable timing. We take a compassionate look at Joseph's trials, recognizing the transformative power of the hardships that ultimately shaped his destiny. With this episode, we aim to uplift your spirit and pray for anyone feeling the weight of spiritual fatigue. Let's embrace together the champion within and find the perseverance to keep moving forward, anchored in the hope of our divine appointments and the strength they bestow.

reality of Christianity.

I need to seize the moment,seize the opportunity and
refocus, realign my life back upwith God.
So we wanna talk today aboutsubject help me, I'm falling
(01:12):
because the reality of thisChristian wall.
There is gonna be moments anddays where it feel like hell is
bombarding against you.
Everything has been ripped fromyou.
One moment you in success, thenext moment feel like you're a
complete failure.
Disappointment has settled in,you feel as though you're
(01:32):
suffocating under the weight ofevery life problems and you find
yourself being bombarded inyour mind.
Your trouble, your perplex.
What do you do?
Who do you turn to?
Who can you trust with theanguish and the pain that is
inside of you?
Who can you turn to?
Who can you get advice from?
Wisdom from that can guard yourpain, but he'll advance you in
(01:59):
the kingdom.
Well, that's a very touchysubject, so let's deal with that
.
Let's go to Psalm 1st, 37 and 24.
Psalm 38 and 24, and this is aPsalm of David out of the house
of bendivate.
Now, anybody that knows aboutpain in the eyes and the life of
David, oh my God, just lookingthrough the eyes of David, you
(02:22):
can see in your own eyes themoment of success, a moment of
great victories, the moment oftriumphant moments, and then the
moment everything slippedthrough your hands.
David at one moment.
Now he is being crowned king ofIsrael and all of a sudden,
armies after armies of Israel,they're fighting, they're
(02:44):
winning the battles, and nowlook like complete success, only
to find himself losing hisgreatest battle.
His home begins to get rippedapart, tragedy hits his home,
hits his family, and all of asudden now he finds himself not
(03:07):
as a giant killer, not as a kingof Israel, but now he finds
himself a victim to his ownpains, his own suffering.
And now he's seeking God andweeping, saying Lord, what
should I do?
Everything has been stolenzig-lags in the smoking furnace,
everything that you work hardfor, everything that you sweat
(03:31):
at your brow for, and all of asudden now it's been detached
from your life.
And now you find yourself in avulnerable state.
But you're still aspirit-filled believer, you
still love God, but you'recrying out help me.
I'm falling, I'm tearing theinside.
I don't wanna keep up theappearance anymore.
Oh my God, let's talk aboutthat.
(03:52):
Verse 24, psalm 37, though hefail, he shall not be utterly
cast down for the Lord.
Upholdeth him with his hands.
Though he fail, he shall not beutterly cast down for the Lord.
Listen to that the Lord saidthough he may mistakes.
Oh my God, ladies and gentlemen, let's deal with that.
(04:15):
When we get around mistakes andwe don't see David acknowledged
that the Lord created me aclean heart, renewed me in the
right spirit.
David acknowledged histransgression.
David acknowledged hiswrongdoings.
But yeah, he's a man that thegospel in heart, but David
(04:36):
through his eyes is a vintageimage.
That success is not enough tokeep your house in tank.
Success is not enough to keepyour ministry in tank.
There are stages orvulnerabilities cause the same
moment of success.
All of a sudden, now, the nextday, complete failure.
(04:57):
You find yourself in awilderness.
You find yourself in depression.
You find yourself in a placethat you don't wanna rise up
from the bed but you rathersleep throughout the day than
night to find yourselfsuffocating in your wallet and
your own pain and sufferingbecause you lost your
perspective in God.
The Psalmist David, same theLord, say.
(05:19):
Though he fell, he would not beearly cast down, the Lord will
hold him with the right hand ofHis power and authority.
You might have fallen today.
You may be tar on the inside.
You may be up against yourgreatest financial battle, you
may have strife, you might havebeen gone through a divorce, you
(05:39):
may have the massive violencein your home, in your life.
Whatever the case may be thatyou have already faced or
Perhaps may face.
Not speaking gloom or doom orprophesied by no means, but
there is Values that we all walkthrough and order.
Get to the mountaintopexperience with God.
(06:02):
Ladies and gentlemen, today, ifyou're just logging on, we're
coming from Psalm 37, I'm sorry.
Isaiah 40 and 28, that's Isaiah40 and 28.
Isaiah 40 and 28.
Has thou not known, has thatnot her, that ever lesson God,
the Lord, the creator of theends of the earth, fain if not,
(06:24):
neither is weary?
We just talked about Psalm 37and 4 in the life of David.
Listen, has thou not known, hasthou not heard, that the ever
lesson God, the Lord, thecreator of the ends of the earth
, fain and not, neither is withit, neither.
There is no searching of hisunderstanding.
He get power to the faint andto them that have no might, he
(06:46):
increases strength.
Oh my God, there's no failuresin God, the failures in us.
So let's talk about this just amoment.
You know you have to understandGod's perfect plan for you.
Everything is center aroundBuilding your relationship up
(07:08):
with God.
The psalmist, david, in hiseyes, is a vivid image of you.
Can have success, and that'smom.
Everything is a glad has beenripped and snatched from you.
So success is enough is notenough to keep your house in
tank.
You have to keep your focuscenter on Christ.
But you say I love Christ, I'mjust tired, I don't know what to
(07:33):
do.
Who to turn to?
Well, even the greatestprophets in the Old Testament,
elijah, the master prophet, whojust called down fire upon the
false prophets of Bill.
Just a bill sent out assignmentagainst his life, a death
threat.
How is it that a prophet andthat statue, that status, know
(07:57):
who Elijah is and 24 hours or solater we're told that he's
under the Juniper tree Desiringto die.
He's in depression Because hehears one woman, a Jezebel
spirit, wants to take his lifeand send out a death.
But he just got through, seen450 prophets consumed by the
(08:18):
fire of God Because Elijah isstill Human.
He was still human.
No matter how great you are inyour calling, she'll gives your
anointing.
You're still in this humanflesh, you still in this
earthland body and as long asyou in this earthland body
(08:40):
you're gonna be.
You're gonna have seasons ofvulnerability, you're gonna feel
like a prey and the paratroopscoming after you.
And then you get to a placewhen you're done, all you know
what to do and you're standing.
But, lord, when that prophecyis gonna come to pass, when that
prayer gonna be answered, whenis my loved one gonna be saved?
When I'm gonna get that miraclethat I need so desperately in
(09:02):
my life, how long do I gottawait before God answers me?
And you get weary on lifejourney.
You get weary.
Oh my god.
Another great example of wearingthis, not waiting on God's
perfect time it was Abraham.
We have so much going on todayin our land cause.
Abraham did not wait upon theLord Because we think we have to
(09:27):
help, guide out, we think weneed to aid him, as though he's
not God by himself.
You know, when you go throughthese battles, david said.
The scripture says when he'sfallen, he's not cast down, but
he's upholded by the hands ofGod.
God would hold you up when youfeel like you have no more
(09:50):
strength to fight the battles.
Warfare is tensified on everycorner of your life.
Finance is not where it needsto be.
Don't have the right jobpromotion or the right job
position.
God is faithful and just.
You just got to keep holding onand holding out, ladies and
gentlemen, and don't you give upon the virtue of your miracle
(10:13):
and don't you tune me out.
Right now I want to help you getup from that state.
I feel like I'm tired on theinside.
I can't do this anymore.
What do you do when you don'twant to do it?
No more.
Very good question.
It comes to uniform of astatement.
What do you do when you don'twant to do it anymore.
Oh my God, I have been there somany times where I felt like
(10:37):
God.
I just don't want to do thisanymore.
You know the mindsets of peopleand the prosecution and the
level of success and themistakes of failures and the
misopportunities, and you know,please send man keeping up the
appearance and, oh my God,joseph put on that mask.
(10:59):
He kept up the appearance andPharaoh's court yards until he
came to reality and face his ownfamily and they all fell down
his knees and began to take offtheir masks and cry and say I am
your brother, joseph, the veryone that you rip the coat of
many colors, threw me in the pit, went from Potiphar House, fox
(11:21):
accused, but in the wrong placeat the wrong time.
And now I'm in prison,incarcerated.
I'm interpreting dreams andrestoring one back to the right
hand of Pharaoh.
Now I'm interpreting the dreamof Pharaoh seven phatic years
and seven lean years, and nowIsrael has been saved and
brought to Egypt because ofJoseph's obedience, but he's
(11:43):
still wearing that mask.
Are you tired of wearing thatmask?
You're tired on the inside.
That doesn't measure.
Listen, ladies and gentlemen,just cause you, tell me inside,
doesn't weaken your faith,doesn't make you less of a
Christian.
It means you've been real withyourself.
It doesn't mean God hasforsaken you.
(12:04):
Doesn't mean God's angry withyou.
That's foolishness.
Stop listening to that foolishand nonsense and stop allowing
everyone to speak into your eargates.
There are moments that we allfeel like God.
This cross I'm carrying iscollapsing.
It's costing me to collapse.
I don't have that same ambition, that same desire, that same
(12:26):
hunger.
What do you do?
What do you preach?
Preacher, help me.
What do I do?
Help me.
I'm falling, I'm tar on theinside.
Well, the only recipe, ladiesand gentlemen, is allowing time
to heal.
Time heals all situations andyou have to trust the God of
timing.
You have to trust the God ofperfect timing.
(12:48):
Let me give you some examples.
See, in the life of David, hehad to trust the timetable
because he went through so manycatastrophic battles in his own
home, betrayed by his own son,absalom, who, revolt against him
, went to take his crown and histhrone.
His own son revolted againsthim.
(13:09):
Oh my God, he's facing tragedyat his highest climates.
Yes, david messed up.
Yes, david made a mistake.
His mistake did not define hispurpose in God.
This is making excuses for orgive license to it.
But your mistake did not definewho you are in God.
(13:30):
God lived beyond our failuresand our mistakes.
We just had to get back up,shake ourself, get back in the
right mindset of thinking, shiftour attitude and realize God's
very best intention is for me isto learn from this.
Let it be a life lesson toteach me how to make a better
person.
(13:50):
Because of me, I see is the meI'm going to be.
So I need to understand thatnext time I see myself, I need
to see myself like Christ seesme.
How do Christ see you today?
Or how do you see yourself?
Well, you may be looking intoyourself in a myrione image.
You may see nothing butmistakes, failures, problems for
piling up.
Ministry is not going the wayyou want to go, job is not so.
(14:15):
Seeing what you desire in life,your career is not the one that
you chose, that you wanted whenyou graduated, went to college,
and now you find yourself nothaving a career that you had
Desire.
And now you find yourselfSecond guess in the plan, the
purpose of God, just like David.
What do I do, lord?
He cried out unto God.
(14:36):
And God said to David get upand pursue, you're going to
recover all.
Hallelujah today.
All ladies and gentlemen, thisis Prophet Tresa Alakut.
You're watching Uniting FaithTV.
We want to ignite faith in you.
We want to put faith in youthat will hold on to the nail
scar hands of Jesus.
Hold on to the orders of yourown heart, your own life.
(15:00):
Don't let go the homes of theorders.
Why?
Because your breakthroughswithin reach.
I know you're going through thehardest part of your life.
I can relate.
You're going through thehardest test of your life again.
We've all been through greatchallenges, great tests, not
because the virus hit the land,my God.
We've been challenged andtested for years upon years as
(15:21):
Christians.
You're going to be tested,you're going to be tried, but
you've got to keep the rightattitude and you got to keep on
marching in the venture of faith.
Don't start marching in faith,don't stop.
Keep igniting that faith insideof you.
Let that desire burn within youagain.
Let Christ come alive, let hopebecome alive, let your
(15:43):
believing system come alive.
Why?
Because God's going to do itagain.
God's perfect timing and Davidrecover all just like God said
to him.
But David had come to arealization.
Success is not enough to keepmy home intact.
Success in ministry is notenough to keep it pack.
You got to learn how to closeall doors that the emma cannot
(16:06):
come in, and it takes time.
But you got to learn to closetheir doors where the emma
cannot come in Unwelcome oruninvited.
But you'll learn that as youbegin to take that step towards
the mark of the high calling ofGod in your life, oh, my God, I
want you to know.
Just like I said Isaiah, listen,has thou not known, has thou
(16:28):
not heard that ever less in God,the Lord, the creator of the
ends of the earth, he faintethnot.
Neither is he weary.
There is no watching of hisunderstanding.
He give power to the faint.
Until then, to have no mightincreases the strength.
He give power to the faint.
What is he saying?
He talked to the believers here.
(16:49):
He's not talking to the center,the ungodly.
He's talking to his covenantchosen people.
And you are his covenant chosenpeople.
And listen, everyone in theBible has made some type of
mistakes.
Are you greater than Moses?
I sure hope you don't putyourself on the same platform as
(17:11):
Moses as a prophet.
Yes, you may be a prophet, butyou are not on the same platform
as Moses.
By no means.
By no means Are you greaterthan Abraham.
So are you greater than Abraham, who had boarded his destiny
for a period of 25 years?
After Ishmael, at 14 years ofage, here come Isaac.
(17:36):
He went ahead of the plan ofGod, tried to help out to
fulfill prophecy, made a greatmistake, oh my God.
He made a great mistake, but hebecame the friend of God.
David was a man that God's ownheart.
He had Uriah, his greatestsoldier, murdered so he could
(17:56):
have Bethsheba, oh my God.
Then his son, king Simon, wasthe wisest king to ever live,
and even some said everything atthe end is vanity and my crown
don't mean nothing.
My position, my platform, myministry means nothing If I
don't understand my assignment.
(18:17):
Keep the faith, keep the loveof Christ.
Resender yourself, refocus,realign yourself today, because
I'm telling you, if you haven'tbeen to a season, been tired,
value back a place of weeping.
Oh my God.
Even David ran like a fugitive.
(18:40):
He had himself in the cave ofthe Dolan, hunted by Saul, his
mentor.
Can you imagine that?
Can you imagine that, mentors,you've been hunted by your
mentor.
The one that helped train you,disciple you, now is hunting you
because you don't want to passon the patan, or because you got
(19:05):
jealous.
David 10,000 saw 1000.
So now mentors turning on theirown spiritual children, sons and
daughters in faith who aresupposed to succeed them in
ministry.
Oh my God, it's so muchperversion in the kingdom.
Listen, when it is, your timeis up.
(19:26):
One's got to decrease, one'sgot to increase.
My God, look at the tragedy.
David got tired.
He was hiding like a fugitivein the cave of the dormant,
running from soul.
So had the priest kill, murderthe priests, hunting the life of
(19:49):
David who serve him.
For 10 years was his armbarrier, lived up his hands,
serve in his house and now sawas hunting David for a very
system, it's very life.
And now he's got the high incaves because he's been
(20:12):
threatened by his mentor.
Oh my God, may God help youmentors, you spiritual father
and spiritual mothers.
God, shame on you.
May God judge you for suchnonsense and not understanding
that you pass the torch on.
(20:34):
You don't operate in pride andjealousy, you don't operate in
the spirit.
I want to keep my crown untilthe day I die.
That's never.
It's never God's intention.
You have to procreate, in otherword, reproduce yourself.
You got to reproduce who youare.
(20:54):
One put 1000 flight to 10,000flight.
But David, he gives us a lifelesson.
Success is not to keep nothing.
Keep my house intact.
I got to close all the doors tothe enemy coming in unwelcome
and uninvited.
What do I do?
You get up and you pursue.
You can recover all, but I'mtired.
I know you're tired.
(21:15):
We all get there.
We all have been there one timeand another and I'm sure we may
get there again, because inthis journey of Christianity
there's ups and downs of life.
Why the bad things happen togood people, I don't know.
We'll know that answer when weget to heaven, that's.
I can't answer that for you.
(21:36):
Why the bad things happen togood people, why are their
children diagnosed with diseasesthat were no fault of their own
?
I can't answer that.
Why do people born Handicapdeform?
Is the sin of the parents orit's a generational curse?
Some cases may be.
(21:58):
I do know this.
Whatever we don't have ananswer for here.
One day you can ask all ofthose questions to the one that
holds all the answers.
But what I do know, in 37 yearsof ministry, I've learned a lot
in this journey, and there'sbeen many valleys and there've
been many great mountains, butthrough it all I've learned how
(22:19):
to trust in Jesus.
I learned how to stand on thisword, trust His tining.
When you've done all you knowwhat to do, stand in these.
You chump the sins put on thewhole arm of God.
Yes, you're tired.
It's nothing wrong being tired.
That doesn't make me lessanointed.
Oh, my God, please.
Elijah, the greatest masterprophet, got tired, got fatigued
(22:41):
, got depressed, but God fed himsupernaturally, gave him
strength to continue his lifeministry and his journey for God
.
Moses violated everything,hiding holy, buried a man in
Egypt cause he wanted to deliverhis own people, ran like a
(23:03):
fugitive in a backside of thedesert, but God kept his
appointment with Moses in abackside of the desert.
And, ladies and gentlemen, nomatter how tired you get, help
me out forward.
Well, get back up, becauseGod's got appointment with you
today and you got appointmentwith the almighty God.
Abraham messed up more than anyof them in the Old Testament.
(23:27):
Because the Bible still ragesover the mistake of Abraham
today Watch your news, mistakethat's taking place in our land,
in the Middle East and Israel.
All God to do is stand awayfrom the disobedience of Abraham
, but we don't want to talkabout that.
We don't want to talk aboutdisobedience here in Abraham.
(23:48):
That's cause of continuousbattle, even unto our day and
our generation.
Get back up.
You're not, listen.
You can't go under for goingover.
Oh, hallelujah, let me say thatagain.
You can't go under for goingover.
(24:09):
I know there's a miracle withyour name on it.
Through the life of David, welearned today, through the life
of Moses, elijah, abraham, onand on and on Peter.
There's so many in the Bible,just so many examples.
Though he slayed me, yet when Itrust him self-inflicted wounds
(24:31):
, things we brought on our ownself, but yet God has suffered
it.
You say I'm tired.
Let me pray for you now.
Let me encourage you.
Get up one more time, fight onemore time.
I didn't hear the bell ring.
Your opponent is in the centerof that ring and he hits below
(24:53):
the bell.
The adversary, satan hits belowthe bell.
But you got a champion insideof you.
You got a champion inside ofyou.
Get back up.
Help me.
I'm falling Father in the nameof Jesus.
As this broadcast comes to anend, everyone that's fatigued,
spiritually burned out, facingproblems in their homes, their
life, ministry, their business,encouraged them today.
(25:15):
Let this message find them infaith, ignite faith back into
them, let them be blessed andcourage be real in their lives.
Help them, but they can't helpthemselves.
Lord, that is my prayer toeveryone in the Son.
My voice in Jesus, mighty name,amen, amen.

Wisdom from that can guard yourpain, but he'll advance you in
(01:59):
the kingdom.
Well, that's a very touchysubject, so let's deal with that
.
Let's go to Psalm 1st, 37 and 24.
Psalm 38 and 24, and this is aPsalm of David out of the house
of bendivate.
Now, anybody that knows aboutpain in the eyes and the life of

His home begins to get rippedapart, tragedy hits his home,
hits his family, and all of asudden now he finds himself not
(03:07):
as a giant killer, not as a kingof Israel, but now he finds
himself a victim to his ownpains, his own suffering.
And now he's seeking God andweeping, saying Lord, what

(03:52):
Verse 24, psalm 37, though hefail, he shall not be utterly
cast down for the Lord.
Upholdeth him with his hands.
Though he fail, he shall not beutterly cast down for the Lord.
Listen to that the Lord saidthough he may mistakes.
Oh my God, ladies and gentlemen, let's deal with that.
(04:15):
When we get around mistakes andwe don't see David acknowledged
that the Lord created me aclean heart, renewed me in the
right spirit.
David acknowledged histransgression.
David acknowledged hiswrongdoings.
But yeah, he's a man that thegospel in heart, but David
(04:36):
through his eyes is a vintageimage.
That success is not enough tokeep your house in tank.
Success is not enough to keepyour ministry in tank.
There are stages orvulnerabilities cause the same
moment of success.
All of a sudden, now, the nextday, complete failure.
(04:57):
You find yourself in awilderness.
You find yourself in depression.
You find yourself in a placethat you don't wanna rise up
from the bed but you rathersleep throughout the day than
night to find yourselfsuffocating in your wallet and
your own pain and sufferingbecause you lost your
perspective in God.
The Psalmist David, same theLord, say.
(05:19):
Though he fell, he would not beearly cast down, the Lord will
hold him with the right hand ofHis power and authority.
You might have fallen today.
You may be tar on the inside.
You may be up against yourgreatest financial battle, you
may have strife, you might havebeen gone through a divorce, you
(05:39):
may have the massive violencein your home, in your life.
Whatever the case may be thatyou have already faced or
Perhaps may face.
Not speaking gloom or doom orprophesied by no means, but
there is Values that we all walkthrough and order.
Get to the mountaintopexperience with God.
(06:02):
Ladies and gentlemen, today, ifyou're just logging on, we're
coming from Psalm 37, I'm sorry.
Isaiah 40 and 28, that's Isaiah40 and 28.
Isaiah 40 and 28.
Has thou not known, has thatnot her, that ever lesson God,
the Lord, the creator of theends of the earth, fain if not,
(06:24):
neither is weary?
We just talked about Psalm 37and 4 in the life of David.
Listen, has thou not known, hasthou not heard, that the ever
lesson God, the Lord, thecreator of the ends of the earth
, fain and not, neither is withit, neither.
There is no searching of hisunderstanding.
He get power to the faint andto them that have no might, he
(06:46):
increases strength.
Oh my God, there's no failuresin God, the failures in us.
So let's talk about this just amoment.
You know you have to understandGod's perfect plan for you.
Everything is center aroundBuilding your relationship up
(07:08):
with God.
The psalmist, david, in hiseyes, is a vivid image of you.
Can have success, and that'smom.
Everything is a glad has beenripped and snatched from you.
So success is enough is notenough to keep your house in
tank.
You have to keep your focuscenter on Christ.
But you say I love Christ, I'mjust tired, I don't know what to
(07:33):
do.
Who to turn to?
Well, even the greatestprophets in the Old Testament,
elijah, the master prophet, whojust called down fire upon the
false prophets of Bill.
Just a bill sent out assignmentagainst his life, a death
threat.
How is it that a prophet andthat statue, that status, know
(07:57):
who Elijah is and 24 hours or solater we're told that he's
under the Juniper tree Desiringto die.
He's in depression Because hehears one woman, a Jezebel
spirit, wants to take his lifeand send out a death.
But he just got through, seen450 prophets consumed by the
(08:18):
fire of God Because Elijah isstill Human.
He was still human.
No matter how great you are inyour calling, she'll gives your
anointing.
You're still in this humanflesh, you still in this
earthland body and as long asyou in this earthland body
(08:40):
you're gonna be.
You're gonna have seasons ofvulnerability, you're gonna feel
like a prey and the paratroopscoming after you.
And then you get to a placewhen you're done, all you know
what to do and you're standing.
But, lord, when that prophecyis gonna come to pass, when that
prayer gonna be answered, whenis my loved one gonna be saved?
When I'm gonna get that miraclethat I need so desperately in
(09:02):
my life, how long do I gottawait before God answers me?
And you get weary on lifejourney.
You get weary.
Oh my god.
Another great example of wearingthis, not waiting on God's
perfect time it was Abraham.
We have so much going on todayin our land cause.
Abraham did not wait upon theLord Because we think we have to
(09:27):
help, guide out, we think weneed to aid him, as though he's
not God by himself.
You know, when you go throughthese battles, david said.
The scripture says when he'sfallen, he's not cast down, but
he's upholded by the hands ofGod.
God would hold you up when youfeel like you have no more
(09:50):
strength to fight the battles.
Warfare is tensified on everycorner of your life.
Finance is not where it needsto be.
Don't have the right jobpromotion or the right job
position.
God is faithful and just.
You just got to keep holding onand holding out, ladies and
gentlemen, and don't you give upon the virtue of your miracle
(10:13):
and don't you tune me out.
Right now I want to help you getup from that state.
I feel like I'm tired on theinside.
I can't do this anymore.
What do you do when you don'twant to do it?
No more.
Very good question.
It comes to uniform of astatement.
What do you do when you don'twant to do it anymore.
Oh my God, I have been there somany times where I felt like
(10:37):
God.
I just don't want to do thisanymore.
You know the mindsets of peopleand the prosecution and the
level of success and themistakes of failures and the
misopportunities, and you know,please send man keeping up the
appearance and, oh my God,joseph put on that mask.
(10:59):
He kept up the appearance andPharaoh's court yards until he
came to reality and face his ownfamily and they all fell down
his knees and began to take offtheir masks and cry and say I am
your brother, joseph, the veryone that you rip the coat of
many colors, threw me in the pit, went from Potiphar House, fox
(11:21):
accused, but in the wrong placeat the wrong time.
And now I'm in prison,incarcerated.
I'm interpreting dreams andrestoring one back to the right
hand of Pharaoh.
Now I'm interpreting the dreamof Pharaoh seven phatic years
and seven lean years, and nowIsrael has been saved and
brought to Egypt because ofJoseph's obedience, but he's
(11:43):
still wearing that mask.
Are you tired of wearing thatmask?
You're tired on the inside.
That doesn't measure.
Listen, ladies and gentlemen,just cause you, tell me inside,
doesn't weaken your faith,doesn't make you less of a
Christian.
It means you've been real withyourself.
It doesn't mean God hasforsaken you.
(12:04):
Doesn't mean God's angry withyou.
That's foolishness.
Stop listening to that foolishand nonsense and stop allowing
everyone to speak into your eargates.
There are moments that we allfeel like God.
This cross I'm carrying iscollapsing.
It's costing me to collapse.
I don't have that same ambition, that same desire, that same
(12:26):
hunger.
What do you do?
What do you preach?
Preacher, help me.
What do I do?
Help me.
I'm falling, I'm tar on theinside.
Well, the only recipe, ladiesand gentlemen, is allowing time
to heal.
Time heals all situations andyou have to trust the God of
timing.
You have to trust the God ofperfect timing.
(12:48):
Let me give you some examples.
See, in the life of David, hehad to trust the timetable
because he went through so manycatastrophic battles in his own
home, betrayed by his own son,absalom, who, revolt against him
, went to take his crown and histhrone.
His own son revolted againsthim.
(13:09):
Oh my God, he's facing tragedyat his highest climates.
Yes, david messed up.
Yes, david made a mistake.
His mistake did not define hispurpose in God.
This is making excuses for orgive license to it.
But your mistake did not definewho you are in God.
(13:30):
God lived beyond our failuresand our mistakes.
We just had to get back up,shake ourself, get back in the
right mindset of thinking, shiftour attitude and realize God's
very best intention is for me isto learn from this.
Let it be a life lesson toteach me how to make a better
person.
(13:50):
Because of me, I see is the meI'm going to be.
So I need to understand thatnext time I see myself, I need
to see myself like Christ seesme.
How do Christ see you today?
Or how do you see yourself?
Well, you may be looking intoyourself in a myrione image.
You may see nothing butmistakes, failures, problems for
piling up.
Ministry is not going the wayyou want to go, job is not so.
(14:15):
Seeing what you desire in life,your career is not the one that
you chose, that you wanted whenyou graduated, went to college,
and now you find yourself nothaving a career that you had
Desire.
And now you find yourselfSecond guess in the plan, the
purpose of God, just like David.
What do I do, lord?
He cried out unto God.
(14:36):
And God said to David get upand pursue, you're going to
recover all.
Hallelujah today.
All ladies and gentlemen, thisis Prophet Tresa Alakut.
You're watching Uniting FaithTV.
We want to ignite faith in you.
We want to put faith in youthat will hold on to the nail
scar hands of Jesus.
Hold on to the orders of yourown heart, your own life.
(15:00):
Don't let go the homes of theorders.
Why?
Because your breakthroughswithin reach.
I know you're going through thehardest part of your life.
I can relate.
You're going through thehardest test of your life again.
We've all been through greatchallenges, great tests, not
because the virus hit the land,my God.
We've been challenged andtested for years upon years as
(15:21):
Christians.
You're going to be tested,you're going to be tried, but
you've got to keep the rightattitude and you got to keep on
marching in the venture of faith.
Don't start marching in faith,don't stop.
Keep igniting that faith insideof you.
Let that desire burn within youagain.
Let Christ come alive, let hopebecome alive, let your
(15:43):
believing system come alive.
Why?
Because God's going to do itagain.
God's perfect timing and Davidrecover all just like God said
to him.
But David had come to arealization.
Success is not enough to keepmy home intact.
Success in ministry is notenough to keep it pack.
You got to learn how to closeall doors that the emma cannot
(16:06):
come in, and it takes time.
But you got to learn to closetheir doors where the emma
cannot come in Unwelcome oruninvited.
But you'll learn that as youbegin to take that step towards
the mark of the high calling ofGod in your life, oh, my God, I
want you to know.
Just like I said Isaiah, listen,has thou not known, has thou
(16:28):
not heard that ever less in God,the Lord, the creator of the
ends of the earth, he faintethnot.
Neither is he weary.
There is no watching of hisunderstanding.
He give power to the faint.
Until then, to have no mightincreases the strength.
He give power to the faint.
What is he saying?
He talked to the believers here.
(16:49):
He's not talking to the center,the ungodly.
He's talking to his covenantchosen people.
And you are his covenant chosenpeople.
And listen, everyone in theBible has made some type of
mistakes.
Are you greater than Moses?
I sure hope you don't putyourself on the same platform as
(17:11):
Moses as a prophet.
Yes, you may be a prophet, butyou are not on the same platform
as Moses.
By no means.
By no means Are you greaterthan Abraham.
So are you greater than Abraham, who had boarded his destiny
for a period of 25 years?
After Ishmael, at 14 years ofage, here come Isaac.
(17:36):
He went ahead of the plan ofGod, tried to help out to
fulfill prophecy, made a greatmistake, oh my God.
He made a great mistake, but hebecame the friend of God.
David was a man that God's ownheart.
He had Uriah, his greatestsoldier, murdered so he could
(17:56):
have Bethsheba, oh my God.
Then his son, king Simon, wasthe wisest king to ever live,
and even some said everything atthe end is vanity and my crown
don't mean nothing.
My position, my platform, myministry means nothing If I
don't understand my assignment.
(18:17):
Keep the faith, keep the loveof Christ.
Resender yourself, refocus,realign yourself today, because
I'm telling you, if you haven'tbeen to a season, been tired,
value back a place of weeping.
Oh my God.
Even David ran like a fugitive.
(18:40):
He had himself in the cave ofthe Dolan, hunted by Saul, his
mentor.
Can you imagine that?
Can you imagine that, mentors,you've been hunted by your
mentor.
The one that helped train you,disciple you, now is hunting you
because you don't want to passon the patan, or because you got
(19:05):
jealous.
David 10,000 saw 1000.
So now mentors turning on theirown spiritual children, sons and
daughters in faith who aresupposed to succeed them in
ministry.
Oh my God, it's so muchperversion in the kingdom.
Listen, when it is, your timeis up.
(19:26):
One's got to decrease, one'sgot to increase.
My God, look at the tragedy.
David got tired.
He was hiding like a fugitivein the cave of the dormant,
running from soul.
So had the priest kill, murderthe priests, hunting the life of
(19:49):
David who serve him.
For 10 years was his armbarrier, lived up his hands,
serve in his house and now sawas hunting David for a very
system, it's very life.
And now he's got the high incaves because he's been
(20:12):
threatened by his mentor.
Oh my God, may God help youmentors, you spiritual father
and spiritual mothers.
God, shame on you.
May God judge you for suchnonsense and not understanding
that you pass the torch on.
(20:34):
You don't operate in pride andjealousy, you don't operate in
the spirit.
I want to keep my crown untilthe day I die.
That's never.
It's never God's intention.
You have to procreate, in otherword, reproduce yourself.
You got to reproduce who youare.
(20:54):
One put 1000 flight to 10,000flight.
But David, he gives us a lifelesson.
Success is not to keep nothing.
Keep my house intact.
I got to close all the doors tothe enemy coming in unwelcome
and uninvited.
What do I do?
You get up and you pursue.
You can recover all, but I'mtired.
I know you're tired.
(21:15):
We all get there.
We all have been there one timeand another and I'm sure we may
get there again, because inthis journey of Christianity
there's ups and downs of life.
Why the bad things happen togood people, I don't know.
We'll know that answer when weget to heaven, that's.
I can't answer that for you.
(21:36):
Why the bad things happen togood people, why are their
children diagnosed with diseasesthat were no fault of their own
?
I can't answer that.
Why do people born Handicapdeform?
Is the sin of the parents orit's a generational curse?
Some cases may be.
(21:58):
I do know this.
Whatever we don't have ananswer for here.
One day you can ask all ofthose questions to the one that
holds all the answers.
But what I do know, in 37 yearsof ministry, I've learned a lot
in this journey, and there'sbeen many valleys and there've
been many great mountains, butthrough it all I've learned how
(22:19):
to trust in Jesus.
I learned how to stand on thisword, trust His tining.
When you've done all you knowwhat to do, stand in these.
You chump the sins put on thewhole arm of God.
Yes, you're tired.
It's nothing wrong being tired.
That doesn't make me lessanointed.
Oh, my God, please.
Elijah, the greatest masterprophet, got tired, got fatigued
(22:41):
, got depressed, but God fed himsupernaturally, gave him
strength to continue his lifeministry and his journey for God
.
Moses violated everything,hiding holy, buried a man in
Egypt cause he wanted to deliverhis own people, ran like a
(23:03):
fugitive in a backside of thedesert, but God kept his
appointment with Moses in abackside of the desert.
And, ladies and gentlemen, nomatter how tired you get, help
me out forward.
Well, get back up, becauseGod's got appointment with you
today and you got appointmentwith the almighty God.
Abraham messed up more than anyof them in the Old Testament.
(23:27):
Because the Bible still ragesover the mistake of Abraham
today Watch your news, mistakethat's taking place in our land,
in the Middle East and Israel.
All God to do is stand awayfrom the disobedience of Abraham
, but we don't want to talkabout that.
We don't want to talk aboutdisobedience here in Abraham.
(23:48):
That's cause of continuousbattle, even unto our day and
our generation.
Get back up.
You're not, listen.
You can't go under for goingover.
Oh, hallelujah, let me say thatagain.
You can't go under for goingover.
(24:09):
I know there's a miracle withyour name on it.
Through the life of David, welearned today, through the life
of Moses, elijah, abraham, onand on and on Peter.
There's so many in the Bible,just so many examples.
Though he slayed me, yet when Itrust him self-inflicted wounds
(24:31):
, things we brought on our ownself, but yet God has suffered
it.
You say I'm tired.
Let me pray for you now.
Let me encourage you.
Get up one more time, fight onemore time.
I didn't hear the bell ring.
Your opponent is in the centerof that ring and he hits below
(24:53):
the bell.
The adversary, satan hits belowthe bell.
But you got a champion insideof you.
You got a champion inside ofyou.
Get back up.
Help me.
I'm falling Father in the nameof Jesus.
As this broadcast comes to anend, everyone that's fatigued,
spiritually burned out, facingproblems in their homes, their
life, ministry, their business,encouraged them today.
(25:15):
Let this message find them infaith, ignite faith back into
them, let them be blessed andcourage be real in their lives.
Help them, but they can't helpthemselves.
Lord, that is my prayer toeveryone in the Son.
My voice in Jesus, mighty name,amen, amen.
