those faithful in small will be entrusted with more verse 7 it says this
then the word of God spread the number of disciples multiplied greatly in
Jerusalem and the great many of priests were obedient to faith priests obedient
to faith that's crazy priest caused a lot of headache for Jesus
priests they did a lot of bad things these were the guys Jesus was not able
to reach these were the guys that really rejected Jesus apostles now I want you
to see this one is they had global reach the Word of God spread and I felt the
Lord put on my heart and said this if you make prayer a priority and you change
the way you do things and you change you vlad first and your system this is
what's gonna happen there will be a global impact through this ministry the
word of god will spread through YouTube through Facebook through social media
through our travels through the prophetic encounters through Yogi Bear
and through internship it will spread and people say what did you do we did the
right things at the right time the Word of God will spread that's global
outreach number two it says the number of disciples multiplied it's the
increase in impact we will see disciples multiply we will see more people given
the life to Jesus we will see more people serving in the home groups and we
will see more healings and more deliverance the number of disciples
multiplied greatly and lastly I want to say this is that we will reach new
territories it says this great many of the priests became obedient meaning
layers of society disciples could never impact now not only they impacted but
many of those people came to know Jesus why when you're faithful with the widows
in verse one God will entrust you with the priests in verse seven
when you're faithful with the widows meaning you're faithful with what you
have right now the complaints the stress the anxiety and you're willing to work
with God and say Lord I want to put priorities in the right place lord I
want to bring different systems I want to change how I do things
I want to change this and that there is a level that God has for you
where you will reach priests for some of you the priest is going to be something
with your business that was never seem possible
for some of us priest is something that is completely unattainable other people
are seeking to reach priests God will entrust you with that
it says nowhere here the disciples were interceding to reach priests God
entrusted them with priests because they faithfully executed their
responsibilities with the widows do faithfully what God has given you and
God will open new seasons new opportunities when David Diga was here
a few months ago I knew that David Diga new pastor Benny Hinn really close and I
had this dream for a long time to meet pastor Benny Hinn and I understand some
people have their views about Benny Hinn and views are really cool and we live in
a free country everybody is entitled to their own views and I'm entitled to mine
and I wanted to meet him and so I read his book and I really loved his book
and I just I just wanted to meet him and David came and I just came from London
at the time and so they blessed me me and my wife very very generously in
London so I part of when people bless me I look for other people to bless so
we help people in need financially in some other states and in here in our
local church and then we brought money to the church and then I had a little
portion that I've been doing for the last four years where from every trip I
give to my pastor my pastor I give him a blessing just to honor and this is my
deal between me and God and so I have this portion of finances
which is large sum of money and David Diga is in town so I get this thought in
my mind what if I just bless David Diga with that money so God will open
the door to you know meet with Benny Hinn it was just a thought okay Jesus
was tempted to worship the devil in the wilderness don't judge me some of you are like no
way you've had that thought if you could only be honest with your
thoughts anyway so that thought and then I voiced it out I told my wife and I
said babe what do you think I was like I'm not sure but God didn't tell me to
bless David Diga with I'm not against blessing even if God doesn't tell me but
I felt that it would be a sort of manipulation and to the best of my
ability I never did that I didn't give or try to play politics with people just
so they can open doors I've seen God open doors where nobody could open doors
and I did not want to get there because I paid for it and so I remember I made a
decision I'm like no way I love David Diga if I'm gonna have something
extra and God puts in my heart I'll be more than happy to bless my friend but
I'm not doing anything so he can create opportunities for me we dropped him off
at the airport I blessed my pastor my pastor you know
he can't open those doors for me but see there is a God in heaven he sees how you
treat the widows in verse one and for some weird connection he makes
connection in verse seven with people that you have no relationship with or no
influence with so David Diga texted me a few weeks after and says hey
just want to let you know that I showed this photo to Benny Hinn and he shows me the
photo and I said no you didn't and he's like I told him about you guys and
everything and he's like he's interested in meeting you I was like well great you
know praise God two weeks after that we're driving from
Portland area he says could you pull over
and I said yeah so I pull over and then on FaceTime Benny Hinn goes on the
FaceTime I was like oh Hi good to see you too you know all right what is your
name you know so I kind of told him about our ministry and everything and he was like Vladimir
you need to come to Anaheim you know Anaheim this Monday for youth meeting
you need to be there and I was like well since you're asking and calling me like that
you know I will go there so I go there on Monday you know and I've seen friends
who try to go there you know to meet him and you know you gotta have connections
with those people and then you know not only we were set right in front of him
but three times during the service some of you watched it you know he called me
and referenced you know our ministry and then he let me speak and stuff so last
minute you know a word came out of my mouth that blessed a lot of people and
I had a lot of pastors even respond a lot of even connections come through
that and when I came home after that you know and I'm gonna go there again and in
a week from now to spend some time with him and I really believe that one day
he's gonna be here also for a Holy Spirit conference now the point that I
want to draw from this story is this is I genuinely believe that if you are
faithful with the season that you are in and you work with God to get out of the
stress in this season there's a reward that's waiting for you there's a reward
that's waiting for your ministry in verse 7 God will take you there God will
open doors and you will be able to say you know what I didn't buy my way into it
I didn't manipulate my way into it it wasn't because I was clever and
brightest and I won the interview I had the greatest resume honestly I did my
work and God did his
