Full Transcript
Y'all are the problem. It's not my fault. You guys were the ones and because you were bad, I acted bad.
Moses was a great man of God. Don't get me wrong because I don't want him one day to listen to this and me and him have a problem in heaven. I love Moses.
But something that I want to highlight that destroys callings of God. The last thing that I want to share with you and write this down. Your character will limit your calling.
It might not be passion, anointing or fasting, lack of sacrifice. For Moses, what restricted his calling was his character.
