00:00you see when you're pursued for god when you're going to the place of prayer when you're worshiping
00:08him when you are sowing seeds you're coming to church is entirely geared towards overcoming
00:15challenges you will be frustrated i'm saying there has to be a dimension of your love for jesus
00:21that is higher greater than the whole idea of overcoming challenges are we together
00:27so challenges cannot be the only reason or the major reason why you pray why you fast why you give
00:34while you serve believers subconsciously are in a very transactional they brought themselves into a
00:42transactional walk with god so it is always about something they want and so they serve god to get
00:50it we're very transactional in our mentality god i want increase here is my 1000 naira can you bring
00:58me increase god i want a husband i am in the ushering department or the protocol department
01:03see me working in the department and quickly get me a husband you see that kind of thing lord i
01:09want a
01:10job i will polish the shoe of someone who already has a job and while those are valid principles it
01:16becomes a corruption it becomes an interruption to the purity of your work with god if the object of
01:23your pursuit is entirely based on results are you getting the idea now that in dealing with challenges
01:29the first thing you need to know is that you must love jesus and seek him beyond the idea of
01:37receiving
01:37testimonies beyond the idea of victory beyond the idea of results that means whether or not results happen
01:47whether or not victory happens whether or not breakthrough happens whether or not healing happens
01:54are we together whether or not husband and wife comes whether or whatever it is i maintain a disposition
02:01that this the coming or going of things will never affect my love and my pursuit for jesus who understands
02:09me if you can master this you have found the number one key to surmounting challenges
02:19when your love for jesus is unconditional when your passion for jesus is not subject to the awareness of
02:26breakthroughs and the breakthroughs and the rest you will not be frustrated no your desire for victory
02:31will not affect your relationship with jesus
