John Rich

It means you have to look at yourself as a piece of property.

It tells us in the New Testament, and Paul wrote, which I know you love Paul, we're supposed to be bond servants to Christ.

bond slaves, like a mule or a cow or a tractor or whatever.

Like we don't have our own will.

We don't have our own ambition.

We don't have anything.

We are worthless.

but we turn ourselves over to him and he makes you valuable.

And then now he can do things with you because your entire ego and everything has been sacrificed, put to the side, and he can do something with you at that point.

So that's number one.

You gotta be an actual real Christian.

Number two, you have to pray for what you want specifically for that.

So let's say you want discernment.

You can't make sense of what's going on.

You don't know if that's a good guy or a bad guy.

It can't make up your mind.

He's too, I don't know what I'm looking at.

And you want discernment.

God is not just gonna look down and go, John needs discernment right now.

He can't figure out what's going on.
