What is the mystery of God's love?

Pastor Emmanuel Ziga 0:00
God's love is a mystery.
Unknown 0:02
It's a mystery how you can love the unlovable, people who just hate you. God came into me and changed me. I didn't think about being good. I always said it's like God loved me when I hated him.
Pastor Emmanuel Ziga 0:14
I saw a vision of myself standing on Mount Moriah where Abraham was about to sacrifice Isaac. It was a virtual, real vision.
Unknown 0:25
God has purpose in your life, but you're going to have to step into the true identity and understand who God really made you to be.
Pastor Emmanuel Ziga 0:33
Sacrifice is a powerful principle in the things of God. That's why there could have been no salvation but by the sacrifice of your son Jesus. Fasting is sacrifice. God is the God of sacrifice.
Unknown 0:48
Imagine fasting 50 days only on water. Is it possible? Well, of course it is, because my next guest did just that. Okay, we are going to discuss fasting from a spiritual perspective. Oh, we'll tap into the physical as well. I just can't help myself. But pain to purpose is... the name of this podcast and functioning in our God-given purpose. Do you think it affects your physical health? Well, I know this. It affects your physical health and your spiritual health and your happiness because God designed us that way. We're going to dig in. My next guest is an expert there, and he is a pastor to the nations. This man pastors the world. He does. So I am honored to introduce you to him. Pastor... Ziga, thank you so much for being here.
Unknown 1:38
It's my honor and my privilege. Yeah, and we have your amazing books, and I really want to dig into The Power of One, but I opened it up there. We're going to dig into all that, but I don't want to start there because there's a lot I don't know about your beginnings, right?

How does sacrifice relate to God's purpose?

Unknown 1:57
This is what I know. Yeah. To get to where you are with the stature and the influence that you have, so many countries of the world you've influenced, so many amazing things you've done, the leadership role, even in the entrepreneurial world, you have touched all those spaces. You don't get there by accident. So you get there from a life, and what I say, from pain to purpose. Yeah. But you get there from a life of, you know, things, incredible stories and things. So take me back to that. Like, where did you grow up? I mean, I want to know that first. Where did you grow up and what was that like?
Pastor Emmanuel Ziga 2:32
Well, please, first, so thankful to be here. It's an honor to be with... It's an honor to have you here. Dr. Pumper, I mean, I... I'm so honored to see what God has done in your life and what you have done and what you have achieved and what you are yet to achieve. Because coming around you, there's such an energy of striving, energy to ascend, energy to excel, energy for heights. And you just exhume that kind of energy capital. I call it energy capital. Capital, yeah, energy capital. Coming from you, that means a lot. You know, so... Thank you for this invitation. Yeah, so I was born in Africa, in Ghana, and to a father who was a British-trained businessman. He grew in Africa from a very, very poor home.

What does fasting mean in a spiritual context?

Pastor Emmanuel Ziga 3:28
He wore shoes for the first time at the age of nine. And he did not see his father. And his mother was poor. And he had to go to work in a farm 5 a.m. in the morning. And for about two hours to get the little coins to feed himself and to put himself in school. And he would walk barefooted almost about six miles a day to school, you know, self-educated, self-taught. But he did so well, he got scholarships and to the best high school, College Motor School, which was built by the British, you know. And then from there he got another scholarship to go to England. to advance his education. So he was very well British-trained, British-taught, with the disciplines and principles which were not very common in the African context, you see.
Pastor Emmanuel Ziga 4:26
So he studied ceramics in... Ceramics, like pottery. Pottery.
Unknown 4:32
Yeah, and I do have one question. That seemed like... a unique thing or a privilege to be going to that school. How did he get into the, be able to get trained up by the British in the school? Well, I mean that evidently, I mean that affected him, which obviously affected you.
