SPEAKER 01 :
Welcome to Victorious Faith. We believe you will be blessed, encouraged, and receive fresh faith as you listen to today’s message with international missionary and Bible teacher, Cherri Campbell.
SPEAKER 02 :
Welcome to Victorious Faith. I’m Cherri Campbell. Today we are going to continue our study in the lesson, Kingdom of God Partnership. So join me now for the continuation of this lesson, Kingdom of God Partnership. Let’s look at Philippians chapter 1, verses 3 through 7. I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership. There it is. Partnership in the gospel from the first day until now. So the church at Philippi, which was in Macedonia… The church of Philippi had partnered with Paul in the gospel. And he says from the first day or from the first time he was with them until now. So they didn’t stop partnering with Paul after he left Philippi. They continued to partner with him as we read later, sending him aid again and again as he traveled on to other places, other cities. And so verse six, Philippians one, verse six, being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. Verse seven, Philippians one, seven. It is right for me to feel this way about all of you since I have you in my heart because they were his partners, right? I have you in my heart. And I want to say that in this ministry, in Victorious Faith International, the radio ministry, the YouTube ministry, all of the outreaches, we have you in our heart. And you know, there are many churches and ministries that don’t do this. They don’t pray over every offering that they receive. They don’t release their faith for the givers that gave in the offering for the givers to receive their harvest and reward and their needs met. There are many. I’m not saying no churches and ministries do. I’m saying many don’t many churches and ministries. They just take up the offering and don’t think anything else about it. They just put it in their accounts and pay their bills, but they don’t think about their responsibility as a minister to pray for the givers. And that’s something that I have learned from my teachers. It is based on the Old Testament practice of the priest blessing the people. And it is particularly in Deuteronomy chapter 26. And I follow that in both my giving as a giver. I follow Deuteronomy 26. And as a minister, I follow the example of the priest in Deuteronomy 26, who blesses the seed and blesses the giver of the seed. I have learned this from my teachers and I have practiced it from the very first day I entered into ministry, which glory to God, I have now been in full-time ministry for 25 years and been teaching the word of God to the nations for 25 years. Glory to God. And from the very first day, from the very first offering I received, I Amen. Amen. Many churches and ministries don’t do that. They don’t know to do that. They don’t practice that. But this ministry does. I do. And also the ministry team releases their faith together for you to receive your harvest. your victories, your breakthroughs, your answers to prayer in Jesus name. And when we finish this teaching, I’m going to pray for you the same prayer of blessing that I always pray over every offering that is received in this ministry. And while I’m speaking of that, let me also tell you that on our website at victoriousfaith.co, victorious like a champion, V-I-C-T-O-R-I-O-U-S, faith, F-A-I-T-H dot C-O, C-O like Colorado. On the giving page, there is a prayer of blessing for you. the giver to pray over your offering that you are giving, that you are sowing into the kingdom of God. And so I encourage you go to our website at victoriousfaith.co, go to the giving page and click on that button there for the offering blessing for you to pray over your seed, to release your faith on your seed and for your harvest. Hallelujah. So I just wanted to mention that now. And I’ll remind you again later that you can go to our website and there on the giving pages, the offering blessing for you to pray over your offering over the seed. You sow to bless it and to release your faith on it and to believe God for its multiplication and for your harvest on it. But also we will pray over your offering as the priest or the minister receiving the offering is responsible to release their faith for those who give. Many churches and ministries do not know that. They do not practice that. But here in this ministry, we do that diligently and faithfully. So that over every seed, every offering that is sown in this ministry, we lay our hands on it and bless it, commanding it to be fruitful and increase and multiply a hundredfold and a thousand times more in Jesus name. And we release our faith for you to receive your harvest, your victories, your breakthroughs, your answers to prayer. And we. Agree in faith with you for the things you are believing God for in Jesus name. Glory to God. So we’ll come back to that at the end. But back here to Philippians 1 7. It is right for me to feel this way about all of you since I have you in my heart. So that was where we got onto the point that every partner that sows into this ministry is in my heart and I pray for you. And he goes on to say, for whether I am in chains or defending and confirming the gospel, here it is, underline it. All of you share, there’s the partaking, the partnership in God’s grace with me. So he’s saying that the grace that is on me, you share in. So we’re talking about here in the last part of this lesson, we’re looking at the rewards of partnership. And one of the rewards of partnership is that those who sow seed into a ministry share in God’s grace that is on that ministry. And so I purposely also sow seed into ministries that are operating in a grace environment. that I want, that I desire, that I want to step into. So in other words, don’t always just give to those who are below you, have less than you, to the poor, etc., but also give and sow your seed upward. to those who are larger than you, have more revelation than you, bigger than you, operating in a higher level of faith than you are, have a bigger vision than you have, doing greater works than you’re doing. I sow upward into the ministries that are teaching me and inspiring me and are examples to me of a level of faith that I am pressing for. A level of vision that I’m reaching for. An extension of ministry that I am desiring and seeking and spreading my faith for. Absolutely. Exercising my faith for those that are doing more than I’m doing, reaching farther than I’m reaching, having a bigger vision than I have and having a greater faith walking in and fulfilling that vision than I have. I am sowing my seed and also this ministry sows seed so that seed that is sown into this ministry doesn’t just stay in this ministry. It also goes onward into other ministries that are doing more and reaching farther because as I want victorious faith to expand its influence and its reach around the world, I I am therefore sowing seed from Victorious Faith International Ministries into ministries that are reaching around the world. They have a far greater influence and scope of reach than we have. And they’re doing things that I desire to do in this ministry that are part of the vision of this ministry. So sow. seed that is sown into this ministry does not just stay here. A portion of it is also sown into other ministries that are reaching farther so that you have no idea how far the extent is and the reach is of the seed that you sow into this ministry for one, but into any ministry, you’ll never know on this side of heaven how much and how far your seed is accomplishing and reaching. Hallelujah. And so I sow seed into ministers and ministries that are operating in a grace and an anointing that I desire to operate in a level of faith that I desire to reach myself. So when you share in a partnership with a ministry, you can also claim to receive a share of the grace that is on that ministry. Now, again, remember the definition of grace is the gifts, the empowerment, the provision and the anointing. that is available. So the grace that is on a minister and on a ministry, when you sow seed into that ministry, you can receive and claim. You have a right. That’s why in the prayer of blessing, you have a right to claim your harvest. You have a right to claim your harvest. And part of your harvest is a share in the grace, the gifts, empowerment, provision, and anointing that is on that ministry. Not that you have a right to go to that ministry and say, give me 100 bucks. No, you don’t have a legal right, either spiritually or legally in the earth to go to that ministry and tell them, give you money. No, but you share in their grace. That is from God. The way God supplies their needs, as we’re going to look at in a moment, the same way God supplies their needs, the grace for that will be on you to supply your needs. The anointing that is on that ministry can be on you. The level of faith that’s in that ministry, you can believe God that you will grow to that level of faith. The revelation that that ministry is operating in, you can claim to receive that level of revelation for you. The extent of reach that ministry is reaching to, you can claim that grace for yourself. What you just heard was the continuation of a lesson that I taught called Kingdom of God Partnership. And we will continue this message again tomorrow. So join me again tomorrow and remember God loves you. You are blessed and highly favored by the Lord.
