R534 - Making of Gospel Entrepreneurs
August 18, 1996 - Dave Roberson
“Walk the walk that you have been walking, which is in My Spirit. And pray the prayers that you have been praying, that are in My Spirit. For it is through these things that I set divine order in a natural world. Soon you will hear and you will see the unusual, for spiritual law creates and transforms to the unusual. And, oh, you shall be blessed. You shall be blessed. You shall be blessed, for I will give you the inheritance of your Father, says the Spirit of Grace.”
“Hear, hear what the Spirit would say, he that loses his life for My sake, he shall find it. He that loves Me more than all of these things shall find the path that I have ordered for him. For the inner witness, My Spirit, which you who walk by My Spirit have become accustomed to walk by, the inner witness is delicate. You can choose to believe what you want to believe and you can choose to give yourself over to pressure. You can choose to take care, but My inner witness is a delicate witness and it is born and nurtured in the fields of peace.Hear what the Spirit would say, is there anything too hard for Me? I will give you wisdom, saith the Spirit of Grace, and here is wisdom; when you believe that the pressure is your problem, when you believe that the cares of this world are holding you back, when you believe that the [business] deals that did not come forward in your direction are your problem, then you are yet a long way from the kind of adjustments that you need in order to hear My inner witness that will lead you around and through the snares of the evil one that I might give you this inheritance that I speak of, oh, this blessed inheritance that carries many, many, many souls with it.”
“Seek not the wrong thing, seek not the wrong thing, saith the Spirit of the Lord, for when one set of circumstances changes, it will only be replaced by another. Seek not the wrong thing, but seek Me! For circumstances are only to be overcome. They are only to be spoken about victoriously for he that walks with Me will continually come up against greater and greater circumstances. For why would I increase you, says the Spirit of the Lord, if it would not be to move out of the way of the kingdom greater and greater circumstances? Why would I make you stronger and increase you if it is not to move the mountain that is hindering the progress of the kingdom of God? Hear what the Spirit would say. Behold and listen very intently with your inner ears and learn to operate out of that place of peace that is nurtured and born in My fields of peace.”
“‘Where did I go wrong? What did I do wrong? Oh, God, did I not seek You with my whole heart? According to my estimation, my motives were pure and all that I did...I did in Your sight with purity in my mind and in my heart. Where is this blessing that you speak of?’
Oh, hear what I would say, child, for I question not the sincerity of your heart, but there is no option on sincerity. For as much as possible I walked with you in My grace and I picked loose ends up...I caused things to happen as much as I could move Heaven to do so. But hear what I say to you this day, there is no option on sincerity. Many children that I love are sincerely wrong yet they believe that they are sincerely right. They walk in error and they believe things that have tied My hands. And even though they stand before Me with purity of heart and are sincere, they have not let Me administrate correction because of the stronghold that has been ministered to them by those whom they have confidence in and those whom they trust.
But oh I would say this, says the Spirit of the Lord, that I have a remedy...I have an adjustment...I have a solution for every problem. I have an effect for every cause. Is this not why I gave you My Spirit? Is this not why I gave Him, Who is an anointing which cannot lie, to teach you all things? Have I not given you the solution to your problem? Learn to walk with Me for I desire and lust for the day, says the Lord, that I can issue a command within your heart to adjust the thinking of your mind that I may bless you. Come, come, hear what the Spirit would say, for I do desire to walk with you where you desire for Me to walk with you. Some of you, says the Spirit of the Lord, are in a walk of transformation and soon the day will come when I will open more and more of the windows of Heaven because you are releasing Me to do so. Yield yourself to Me and release the ministry of the Holy Spirit within and you shall see. I will walk on the same path - you and I - we will walk this thing out together, says the Spirit of the Lord.”
Pastor Dave: “He has given the solution for every problem. Even when I don’t have it yet, the solution lives in me. Can you imagine that? Can you imagine that? He has made provision for my success in the face of every failure because He gave Him that lives within me. Can you conceive it?”
Holy Spirit: “No one has loved you as I love you, says the Spirit of the Lord. Who has loved you first? And if I withheld no good thing - if I so loved you before salvation and gave Myself for you - do you understand My love for you? Who has loved you first? For no greater love has a man than that he lay down his life for his friends. How shall He Who spared not His own Son, shall He not freely give you all things? For in My love I restrain Myself, says the Lord, I restrain Myself. For I would open the floodgates of blessings to your own destruction had I not restrained Myself. In My love, My agape, I do restrain Myself. For My love for you runs deep into the root and is patient and it is kind, for I will nurture, I will lead in the ways of righteousness and right judgments that I may cause those that love Me to inherit substance, and I will fill their treasuries.
Oh, I desire to open the floodgates of blessings. If you could see what I see and what I desire. I restrain Myself, says the Spirit of the Lord, I restrain Myself against your destruction. Oh, I desire to pick you up. I desire to flood you with good things. I desire to spoil you to the degree that your flesh would puff up. But I cannot. Be patient, says the Spirit of the Lord. As I work each level of My blessing I must set the foundation in place that I may pour Myself upon it and then I will bring you to another foundation and pour Myself upon it and bring you to another foundation and pour Myself upon it. Hear, hear what the Spirit would say.”
Pastor Dave: “I can explain the rest of this because it is coming by revelation now. Did you know that if God just made us wealthy at this moment, that if we all walked out of the building able to buy anything we wanted for the rest of our lives - all that we ever wanted - did you know that for many of us it would become our god? It would become our master? And the scripture would be fulfilled where Jesus spoke that you cannot serve two masters. You cannot serve God and money. It would become our master and we would walk off with it, arm in arm. Oh, the kingdom of God might would see a little more money because of it but God’s heart would never rejoice again in the presence of your fellowship. If He was to do that, many of you would walk off with your new god.
This is what He said to me, ‘Did you know that I maintain a second hand fellowship and love affair with many of My people?’ I said, ‘Please explain.’ He said, ‘If I gave them this incredible wealth, they would walk off with it and quit fellowshipping with Me. So I know that I cannot give it to them. Therefore, they are only fellowshipping with Me because I did not give them the money. I know that if I give them the money they will walk off with it so their fellowship with Me is second hand. But because I am full of grace and I am love, I take it anyway.’ Our fellowship is more valuable to Him than the money that we would give Him. He holds priceless the times when you come out and you get into His presence and then love Him, and love Him, and love Him. Priceless times. Priceless. But see, you can have both!”

Tape R541 - Walking in the Spirit III
September 29, 1996 - Dave Roberson
Pastor Dave talking and prophesying to a prayer line of business/entrepreneur people: “‘More’ - I wanted to use ‘desire’ when I heard this come up but He said: ‘No, no. No, no, no, it’s got to be more than desire, it’s got to be the word that couples desire with action. For faith without action that corresponds has died, says the Spirit of the Lord. More than desire, actions must be born. For they that’ll follow after Me, and do these kinds of things for Me are those that go beyond desire.’
I don’t even know the word, I couldn’t hear it. But it coupled desire with action. I’ll get it, it will come back. He said to me, that one of your deceptions is that you’re waiting for a more favorable time for your circumstances to do your giving and the work for the Kingdom. And when you wait for a more favorable time, the devil keeps you in the vicious circle because you won’t give, and he keeps controlling your circumstances. Tomorrow never comes. What you’re going to do for the Lord, you have to start now. And then you give Him what He needs and He starts now. I am an entrepreneur, then you’re an entrepreneur with five dollars. So how many will walk with Him if He’s going to help you? I mean, if He tears Hell down as an act of faith, the gift of faith, tears it down for you and lets grace replace what was happening and your conditions and circumstances become favorable. Where are you going to find your flesh? Is it going to be where it is now, waiting for more favorable circumstances? I can tell you something. When you have a million, it won’t be any easier to give than when you have five. It puts your flesh under a magnifying glass and there’s never enough. If you’re going to make your stand for faith, you have to do it when you have a dollar. If God wants fifty cents, that’s your stand.”
