Bill Winston - God's Power to Fulfill Your Needs
We’re talking about how you prosper in God, and God’s will, God’s way and God’s why, for us to prosper. Alright, so three things you must know to prosper in God. God’s will, God’s way, and God’s why. The three things you gotta know. «The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow». Now, the blessing is what God gave Adam for fruitfulness. He blessed him and said, be what? Fruitful. Now, fruitful means to creatively bring forth a production by your spirit, by faith. The creatively bring… and you got it. You can do it.
See, a lot of times we’re relying on our minds to give us something. You’ve probably tapped out in your mind, but if you go to bed with something on it, then next day you wake up, God have… will have added something to it. Say amen. And if you’re not creating, you’re not fulfilling your God given potential. If you’re not creating. So we’ve got to create. I’m telling you how we, the body of Christ, are about to take the lead. We’re going to take the lead because it’s going to be all coming from our spirit. No more just coming from our mind. Our spirit is going to play a part in what we do now.
Alright, let me tell you this. Poverty is not the result of not having enough money or education so forth. Poverty is the result of the absence of self production. So my spirit is designed to produce. Produce ideas. To produce supplies. Jesus held the basket up the two fish and five loaves to heaven and blessed it, and then began to distribute it. My spirit is designed for that. But the absence of self production is not because I don’t have enough resources where I am or don’t have anything. Look at the migrants. Look at them coming over to the U.S. What are they looking for? What are they looking for? They are looking for a better life.
We know that. But what are they looking for? I mean, some things. They’re looking for a job. They’re looking for… Am I right about this? When they get the job, they work the job. I’m talking, it could be migrants, it could be anybody here. But God never intended for you just to work a job. You are not from here. You are from above. And what you have is the power in your spirit of self-production. That you can bring something from heaven and make it manifest on earth. That’s, that’s you. You all got what I’m saying here?
Now this, this is… Lord have mercy. I want you to get this because this is true prosperity. See, I’m not talking about you just getting some money, winning the lottery or whatever have you. I’m not talking about that. I’m talking about you being able to feed the West Side. Self production, and you can do that because God already has enough for the wealth for the West Side, He’s got it already in eternity. I’m not talking about where God is, I’m talking about just above this visible world, He’s got all the supplies for the West Side.
Watch this, and a solution to every problem the West Side is having. That could be South Side, anywhere. But I’m saying to you right now, you have been chosen to take that which is solution, or supplies, or systems, or strategies, and bring them in to manifestation so that you can better the lives of people. I said, «We’re turning jails in to boarding schools». Now, where did that come from? That came from that realm 4D that you can’t see. And I pulled it down in my spirit, the download, and then I took it and spoke it out. What I’m trying to do is bring this thing down so that you can be productive. You can be a producer. See, your job is not your source. I’m going to talk about Jacob in just a minute. That job is not your source. Are y’all with me?
Look at Isaiah 51:16. Ready? Read. In my mouth. Protection. Plant the heaven. Now God is saying, «I may plant the heavens». What heavens? Where I got that word from. Where did I get the word? It was we’re turning jails in to boarding schools. God wanted to plant that heaven in the earth and He going to use me to do it with. Say amen. So, I’m a producer. I’ve, self production is what I’m designed to do, and that job is not my source, but a resource.
Now look at Jacob working for Laban. Am I, am I doing alright? This stuff is on another level. See, I told you, you got to be adventurous to step out on this. So, let me show you two things now. Here’s Jacob, he’s working for a man named who? Laban. Because Laban is trying to keep him working, because if he can keep him working, he can keep him in captivity. Okay, so read that. Ready? Read. So read that. Ready? Read. How many years did he work for Laban? 20 years. Now this is when he’s asking that, because he’s getting a raise, but it’s not taking him anywhere.
Now keep going. To a multitude. Keep going. See, don’t give me nothing. I don’t want you to give me nothing. What I’m going to do is I’m going to make a deal with you. I tell you, if you give me the cattle or Livestock that are spotted, speckled, and striped, whatever have you, and then you take the rest, then that’ll be all right with me. And so what he had was an idea that came from where? Oh, Lord have mercy. Everybody in here is creative. Now I’m saying he got fed up and then dropped into his creative ability. You got to get fed up, you got to say, «Hey, wait a minute. I’m supposed to be much further than this in my life».
And then you’ll start pulling on 4D. Because it’s right there waiting for you because God put it in you to be a supplier. You are a producer. The thing that they came to the, to the… Cross the border because they have the absence of self production, they don’t know about this. Now, what the church is supposed to do is evangelize and teach them about it. But the church can’t get evangelizing because the church got to pay their bills. So understand this self production thing.
Now, wait a minute. Let me show you prosperity in the world. Turn to Luke, Luke chapter 16, and Luke chapter 16 and verse 1. Now let’s look at that in the message translation. We’re going to look at it in the message translation. Now this is about a man who worked for another man. Now he’s trying to prosper in the world, but with that comes sorrow. And you, that world… You’re going to have to do the world’s things to be able to get ahead. And that is that most of those things are not in the Bible. They are not really things of integrity. Alright, now let’s read that. Now read, and I’m going to stop you when I get ready. Ready? Read. get ready. Ready? Read.
Now notice the man has been stealing and he came in and fired the man. And so once he’s got, once he knew he was going to be fired, look at what he did. Now this is the world. Ready? Read. Ready? Read. Hold it. He knew how to work the system. And he said, that the saints were, implied in here, that the saints are not working their system. Their system, God will meet every need you have with a bank deposits you’ve made. God will meet every need you have with a bank deposit you’ve made.
So, look what it says in Matthew chapter 17, 26 and 27. Ready? Read. Ready? Read. Now, notice Jesus produced money in a fish’s mouth to pay their taxes. I said, «God». I said, «Listen, I need such and such amount of money». God said, «Alright». He said, «Your tax is going to come back and you believe me for $8,700»? I said, «Alright, praise God». And so it came back and the guy said, «I got a good return for you». I said, «What did you get»? He said, «I got $1,600». I said, «No, sir, that’s not my tax return». I said, «My tax return is much more than that». He said, «Well, I did it, you know». I said, «Well, take it back and do it again».
This man would not lie to anybody, he was honest. I didn’t ask him to do something crooked, I asked him to do the taxes. I don’t know what God changed, but by the time he came back to me, I had $8,700, because I needed that. Now, I’m telling you, God will actually make… Lord have mercy. What? Somebody, if you’re listening to me tonight, you’re about to come into a lot of money. God is not trying to keep something from you, He’s trying to get something to you, and He will meet the needs you have with the bank deposits you made.
Now, what am I saying? Once you sow it, it’s given to the poor, or given to the church, or whatever. You have sown a seed, right? God looked at that, calculated 30, 60, hundred and dropped it in the invisible in your spirit. You are a walking back it’s yours, see it’s yours. Now you need something, make a withdrawal. And I told you how to do that before, I told you how to… Are y’all with me? Now, I… Listen. Say, «I’m adventurous». Say, «Papa, I’m ready to hear some Word». You got to take that attitude, because what I’m going to teach you is on another level. I did not get this mall at that level, this level where you can’t withdraw, I got this level on the place that you can withdraw. The thing I put in there, I put a demand on the seed that I’ve sown, and God got it to me from a bank, but then paid the bank off.
Now, I’m telling you, you are a production center. And you, God’s got enough for you, your family, the people down in the street, the people in the community. He’s got enough coming through you to meet the needs of Chicago. You’ve got to stop coming to somebody trying to get your needs met off of them. Somewhere you got to be the producer. This comes out of your spirit. If you’ve been given, you’ve got a bunch in there. God meant for you to go on that mission field loaded, loaded. And those people in those other countries, they don’t know nothing about this. That’s why they’re coming across the border.
They’re coming, looking at America. But America, most of the production here is because America is hooked up, God bless America, he’s hooked up with the God of heaven. And the blessing of the Lord maketh rich, and it adds no sorrow. So, I’m saying now, you’re in a rich country because people are innovating in this country, and you got plenty. You start innovating, you start asking God, «God, I want to bring something forth». Come on, act like a child. «Papa, Papa, I want to bring something forth… Because the people need to know what you can do, or they need this, or they need that, and I want a strategy for this, for the West Side over here». I want to, you know, and ask that, and get God to give it to you. All right. Say this with me:
Father. Papa. In the name of Jesus. I’m ready to create. I know inside of me you have put something in me that nobody else has, and I’m ready to receive. So in the name of Jesus, I pray in the next 2 weeks you give me a creative idea, one that I can implement this year. And Father, I pray that money is no problem. Money will come because the blessing that is on me brings wealth without painful toil. So I’m done toiling, I’m done hoping, I’m done not having. From now on, money comes to me, but it comes to me through the blessing. I am not cursed, I am blessed like Abraham. What you did for him by covenant, you got to do for me. I am your child. Papa, I’m ready to receive. This is my day. In the name of Jesus, money, ideas, wisdom, come to me right now. In Jesus name, Amen.
