 Whoever honors the birthright is chosen for the blessing Not whoever has the birthright is chosen for the blessing See isa thought if I have a birthright, I will be blessed Like many people today think if I have the Holy Spirit, I'm gonna have great things in my life But I want to remind you today every Christian every person who has given their life to Jesus. I want you to listen up Having the Holy Spirit does not make you a blessed person It's not he who has the Holy Spirit. It's he who honors the Holy Spirit See isa had a birthright, but it was Jacob who wanted the birthright and honored the birthright See Jacob had no birthright, but Jacob had an honor for the birthright We have many people who have the Holy Spirit, but they have no honor No respect and no passion for the Holy Spirit. Therefore their life remains the same Holy Spirit doesn't move in people's lives in those who have him. He moves in those that honor him You can speak in tongues 300 miles per hour, but if you don't honor the Holy Spirit, your life will be the life of isa Nothing will be of that all Christians have the same Holy Spirit But not all Christians honor the Holy Spirit the same Some Christians honor the Holy Spirit just a little bit When they come to church and they realize they're sleeping with their boyfriend or the coffin and the Holy Spirit convicts them and they say Hmm, I need to get married and their way of honoring the Holy Spirit is saying I will get married three years down the road Some Christians honor the Holy Spirit in such a way where they sacrifice their life for him Where they honor him in seeking him in the morning where they honor him in their finances where they honor him like Jacob They're willing to push the soup and say I will honor the Holy Spirit Some Honor the Holy Spirit in this way where they're saying you know what my soup my lust my pleasures My sin is more important than the Holy Spirit the Holy Spirit is gonna be always there But see I'm really hungry right now. I am at this point. I'm a young man, and I need to party it up You know and they despise the Holy Spirit like that. We have to understand The Holy Spirit will give you the blessing not because you have him, but because you honor him When you honor him, that's when the blessing will come
