I've always been told to not rely on my own strength or my own "power" so to speak, but this made me realize those come from God and it's not rejecting God's help if you use the gifts He has given us. Surrender doesn't need to be an all or nothing thing I guess, but rather an understanding that God is already working in us with every breath. Without Him we can do NOTHING. Not even exist. So, by utilizing what we already have, in a way we are leaning on God already. And to use those gifts with gratitude and love in order to glorify God would be the best life. Really changed my perspective from seeing myself as basically worthless, to realizing God is already with me and waiting for me to make a move, with His hand on my back ready to guide me forth. Do all things to the glory of God. Thank you for posting this, my brother is Christ.

God is not affected by any emotion of pleasure or pain.

Only one servant “blew it” but the principle spoken you brought forth. At the end of the day it’s Go when it’s Go and be Still when to be Still - God tells you when and something He gives in knowledge However, our understanding or work ethic should not be a vice for pride in the lie of self sustainment - we are called to be fully reliant on God and sometimes God will tell a person to be still (however that may look according to His Word) to get this across, or restore us, give us rest or all together etc. God’s Grace isn’t upon deserving it, if that was it it wouldn’t be Grace however we are called to put feet to our faith. And it is true those who are faithful with little will be faithful with more and given more. I hope this blesses someone! Jesus is The Way Truth and Life and no one goes to The Father but through Him. He gives us the choice of eternal life thereafter and an abundant one here; freedom and more. Love y’all He does more - God Bless❤️

Wow, I think I needed to hear this! I need to repent of laziness and trust the Lord to help me overcome it.

I literally just read about this in my Bible before I found this video. "Lazy people are soon poor; hard workers get rich." - Proverbs 10:4 Lazineness (sloth) is one of the 7 deadly sins!!! When I'm being unproductive I feel mentally poor, lacking purpose and joy. Working hard with the gifts God gave us brings joy and fulfilment, even if it means we aren't getting physically rich. It doesn't even matter if we get rich or not because God will provide for those who live to serve Him.

This ties, I had contradictions between god’s word into working into business models into thinking it’ll just leave me with the world’s pleasantries. And the idea of letting go and giving your all to lord also got me conflicted and uncertain. I got confused on his word. This video gave me my why back. Appreciate it bro.

Is this something that's been the case for a long time or is it a seasonal thing? There's legitimacy to burnout, slow periods, and overload; "There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven- A time to give birth and a time to die; A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted. A time to kill and a time to heal; A time to tear down and a time to build up." -Ecclesiastes 3:1-4 Consider Joshua and Caleb, who spent 40 years in the wilderness. If you spent 40 years stagnant where you were just because of others' sins, can you imagine how much you'd cry out "why?" to God? It wouldn't make much sense, would it? But they were lucky; Moses spent those 40 years wandering and he didn't even make it to the promised land! What about Jacob? He went to Laban and worked for 7 years in exchange for Rachel -- and he got given Leah! Then he was given Rachel a week later, but he had to spend 7 more years working! 20 years in total he was caught in a snag! Imagine yourself as him as you read what he has to say about his situation: "These twenty years I have been with you; your ewes and your female goats have not miscarried, nor have I eaten the rams of your flocks.That which was torn of beasts I did not bring to you; I bore the loss of it myself. You required it of my hand whether stolen by day or stolen by night. Thus I was: **by day the heat consumed me and the frost by night, and my sleep fled from my eyes.** These twenty years I have been in your house; I served you fourteen years for your two daughters and six years for your flock, and you changed my wages ten times. If the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had not been for me, surely now you would have sent me away empty-handed. God has seen my affliction and the toil of my hands, so He rendered judgment last night.”" Were it not for God's grace, he would've lost all he had! So there are times when we are *stuck,* when we can't move without God. But remember, Joshua did not receive the leadership after 40 years automatically; he was Moses' disciple and learned leadership under him until he was worthy to take his mantle. Caleb had to drive out the Canaanites in his territory, who were giants, despite him being eighty-five years old. Jacob did not slack during his 20 year tenure under Laban, despite his treachery, but worked diligently at his own expense. Other examples you may find edifying: Joseph (son of Jacob) spent 13 years as a slave and in prison. Job suffered intensely for some months in his tribulation before being restored to health and given twice what he had before. David spent years after his initial anointing being persecuted by Saul, probably around 10-20 years. Christ himself lived 30 years preparing before his actual 3 year ministry. Etc. etc. You may feel stuck. You may *be* stuck. But remember, even if you try your best (and self-sufficiency does often fail, "In his self-sufficiency he will be in distress; Every hand of misery will come against him." - Job 20:22), and even with your best efforts you can't become unstuck, that doesn't mean there is nothing you can do. There may be nothing you can do to become unstuck -- had Joshua and Caleb joined Israel in their ill-fated battle against Canaan after God told them to remain in the wilderness, they likely would've lost their reward -- but you can still toil in the field which God has given you. Remember, the harvest is plentiful but the workers are few, so God is very often looking to use us. In the meantime, do your best to mature. Kill the sins of youth, ask God to find you someone with the spiritual gifts/mantles you seek, and take time to fast and pray.

@@nit2266keep in mind, the parable of the talents is likely referring to the gospel. He has given us salvation, and if we keep it to ourselves because we are afraid, we are wicked servants. We didn’t obey by loving others enough to warn them and tell them that good news of Jesus paying for their sins and how they now must repent and place their faith in him. Our why needs to be Him. Every action needs to be to glorify God, every decision needs to be made with God in mind.

I'm grumps against Jesus

This video definitely motivated me! God bless you bro, what you said reminds me of James 2:26

Nothing i do matter's. I'll never get a wife or ever be happy. If its God's will for me to be a continueal failure then that's his will. I dont deserve anything which is why i have no gifts or talents. God will do whatever he wants. My only requirement is to just deny myself, my dreams and desires and just focus on him.

I coped a lot with the second coming, If it hasn't happened, it's probably not going to. It's hard to find motivation, I usually go back to things that we've done for centuries, like using shame which really puts pressure to do more.

a vital aspect of the biblical story of the servants with the masters money is the fact they they were, in the first place, servants. are you actually a servant of Christ? or are you working to serve yourself and this world? that question needs to be sorted out first, and is a question of repentance. continual repentance. a constant reorientation toward Christ and away from the world and its besetting passions. when you get that correct, the path will become clear. and then-and only then-can your efforts be directed effectively toward serving God.

my mom would tell me "God can't help you unless you help yourself" which kind of annoyed me but i guess made sense because he isn't going to force someone to do something he allowed free will... and with it i willingly should ask him for whatever.. but as i ask i am doing something and he will provide... might not make sense for atheists but it does for me.

I knew he caught my ass when I saw the title

Again, we're getting into the free will vs predetermination, of course, we should always try our best, in everything, as we have free will, but the outcome, isn't always in our control, but God can change our destiny IF he is pleased.

Thank you

ty for this

Math is the language of the universal truth and the blueprint upon which all existence is built. Mathematical truth can be used for good or bad and in between those two choices lies the principle of math. The principle of math remains there at a neutral position of neither good nor bad until our actions reflect upon it. We can use that truth to build something beautiful and lasting (Heaven) or something that is the opposite of that (Hell). Your personal truth is the meaning of life and not the foundation of life. Your existence can give meaning to life or take it away. The foundation of life is built on math, not God. The foundation of math is built on Truth. God is built on the same principle of math just as we are. The principle of math provides the necessary foundation of life and God provides the necessary substance also known as building blocks to build upon it. Without math, a good foundation those building blocks have no lasting foundation or no foundation at all. When something is built on a lie it's not meant to last, aka wages of sin is death. That is why when something is built on a bad foundation it's not meant to last, eventually, it will collapse and in most cases hurt like hell, to teach a painful lesson of not building or rebuilding your life on a lie, aka bad foundation. Individuals possess the necessary tools, capabilities, and resources within themselves to navigate life and its challenges without the need for external judgment. Therefore, there's no need for the creator to impose judgment, as it would only burden itself and others unnecessarily. With free will comes great power and responsibility. What you do or don't do is based on your judgment and not on someone else judgment. That is why your actions are going to judge you and no one else should. And how your actions are going to judge you? Your actions will reflect on you and your image and you will have to live with that. Do you know who you are? What do you see when you look in the mirror? What you see is called reflection. That means that you are a reflection. And what do you reflect? You reflect your consciousness, feelings, desires, actions and much more. And if you care about your appearance, reflection then you should care about your actions because those actions will reflect upon your true reflection. One day we will face the truth and we will have to live it. Please make sure that you can live with your actions because you will have to live with their reflection. Many of us when faced with the truth like true image would rather live a lie instead. Why? Well, because their true reflection is so ugly as a result of their ugly actions they would rather live a lie, false image than live with the consequences of their actions. Your image, reflection is like a home, a vessel for your mind, soul. What it means is that your reflection is built on the same principle as the house is. And we do not build houses on assumptions or beliefs we build them on mathematical truth. What can happen if a house or any other structure is built on a lie, bad foundation? Well, that house or that structure is not meant to last and it will collapse. And what can happen to those who live in that structure? For example, they can become homeless. You can become a ghost if you don't have a reflection aka vessel, body (home) for your mind, soul. Don't forget, that those who walk away from the truth are walking into hell. How long does anyone need to be in hell or hell-like situations? Well, that depends on each individual. Eventually, they will get tired of pain, suffering, building or rebuilding their lives on a bad foundation and eventually, they will seek the truth instead of walking away from it. How do you know if you have suffered enough? Well, do you like to suffer? If you don't like suffering then you shouldn't contribute to suffering or feed on the suffering in any way or form. That is why I became vegan. If someone tells us that they do not like suffering and yet they choose to feed on the suffering of animals or others, shows that they do like suffering otherwise they would not do it and if they do like suffering so much then they should not complain about it, instead they should embrace it with open arms ✝. If you would like to see the true reflection of life and those who are part of it before it’s unveiled, I suggest that you study the truth. The better your knowledge and understanding of truth is the clearer your vision will become.

God is not a genie that just gives you what you want when you want it. Yes, God says give everything to Him, you worries, stress, problems, and be still. But being still doesn’t mean laying in your bed on your phone everyday, it means still play your part, you have to work hard to be rewarded. A parent who just gives their child anything and everything without teaching the importance of genuinely working for things is not right

You reap what you sow. You sow good you reap good. You sow evil an you reap evil.

Yeah but you have to know where to draw the line, where the line between: "I put in work but it didn't work out because God has different plans in mind" and "I didn't put in enough work so it didn't work out". When things aren't going your way, even though you're putting more then enough work, then that might be a sign it is not Gods will. God wants you to work toward something different that fulfills his will and then he will help you and things will be better. On the other hand if you do nothing and you fail and you say it wasn't Gods will, well that's hypocritical. Because it is also Gods will for you not to be lazy, laziness is a sin. But if you tried for real and it didnt work out, it was Gods will. That's my take on it

Nice :0

You have everything you need but if you ask God he will help. In any area. But I think as Christians ppl nned to know you can move forward and do it as a chrstian. Its interesting how ppl feel this where did it come from. I have a ex who was not a christian and he would speak this over me for me on what I wanted to do . Very interesting.

I took action and the result was a slap in the face. You say it is not about deserving, but I feel so tired after being taken advantage to have to go through rejection after rejection idk why I am not ever good enough and I am tired of living. Life is not a gift. Life is a curse. If I had a button to push to kill me I would be dead rn. If God loves me he should start helping me instead of forcing me to continue this. I am tired so tired. I want this to end. If God loved me he would kill me and make this hell end. The truth is my life is not worth talking about. I am not worth shit. This is how people treated me all my life and I am starting to accept that my life is not worth living for but it is not up to me to decide to die. It is up to him. He should free me at last. I have no motivation left anymore. I have this last job interview. If he does not help me give a good impression then I do not have any reason to continue anymore. After two years it is enough.
