hello everybody i'm alfred i am listening to teachers lounge
the topic of today's broadcast is what to do if you are a teacher who lost your job due to the pandemic you know let's open our bibles to the book of job chapter 42 verse 1 to 2 i'm reading from the niv translation then job replied to the lord i know that you can do all things no purpose of yours can be twerted now let's look at jeremiah chapter 26 9 verse 11. i'm bringing from the niv translation if i know the plans i have for you declares the lord plus to prosper you and not to harm you plus to give you hope and the future praise the lord you see that is god's plan for you you have to understand something very important you know first of all if you're a teacher is that god's plan for you you know
you can't
be somebody who is in a position where you know you are in a job or you are um in a profession where you are just there to pay the bills it is not something that you want to do is not something that is connected to um what you believe is your destiny and yet you're a christian that is not the way it is when you're a christian you have to understand that you are here on a mission that is fresh it is not to put food on your table putting food on your table and you know the life of um going to going to school as a kid graduating getting married getting your own kids then putting food on their table and showing they go to school and then you die and then your children continue that cycle and it goes on and goes on and goes on no you are bigger than that you know your life your life is not for that that is that is a purpose that's like that is just a big life you know understand who you are you're a real priesthood you are unique you have the life of god in you you are actually a blood brother of jesus christ by faith you know so um this is amazing this is who you are you know you have to um do what you are here for so are you here to be a teacher if you are here to be a teacher if that is um something that you you you have you you it it has become a reality you know it's true one way or the other you know that that is god's plan for you you see see what germa 29 11 says find all the plans i have for you declares the lord plus to prosper you are not to harm your plans to give you a hope and a future that means that even though other teachers may be in difficulty other teachers may you know be in a situation where they pandemic you know that is democratic way to refer to this so-called pandemic you know it's more pandemic you know even though all our teachers may have been tossed off guard and you know they are struggling and all of that you are different because you are working in god's plan so god's plan in spite of pandemic or pandemic whatever it is still going to prosper you and it is not going to harm you it is going to give you hope and the future that means that you know you have to keep on teaching because you believe that um that is god's plan for it's for you to be a teacher you don't have to be in a school for you to teach that is very important you don't have to be employed by a school these schools may be shut down perhaps here in a part of the world where the schools are locked down you can still teach you can get online start your own calls and of course that then that can actually lead to prosperity perhaps you can even make the causes free and then make money via ads that we still lead to prosperity or even get money via donations that we still need to pro to prosperity you know you explain to people that you know um just just basically what i mean a lot of people do um when they post videos on youtube you know and they ask for donations and you know to encourage them to keep on making videos and all of that you know so um that is totally fine and you that can actually be your way you know but the point is that the tuition does not stop and also the same way apostle paul had on his mission he was a missionary but on the side he was making tents to help him along in the same way you can still teach as you have said that that is god's plan for you and then on the side you are doing all that things you know you can work as a secretary you can work as you know a driver or an uber driver or whatever and then in your spare time you you teach perhaps you two kids you know you volunteer to go to kids house or you make videos and you or courses and you put them online there a lot of um course marketplace online course marketplace where you don't have to put up any money you know it's free you just go on all you have to do is record um your courses and upload this and they send money to you when people buy the calls or people subscribe to whatever um general cost system that is you know you could actually launch your own and start your own thing because if you as a t-shirt is out of a job and it and his ex to to teach and many people can't because of the lockdowns and all of that that means that those other teachers we still have that um desire and they are out of a job so that is a market so you can create a a a website to a platform where all teachers you know who are in that same situation or perhaps teachers who are still teaching who are in parts of the world where there is there aren't lockdowns on schools you know and they can all come together and teach and you know you're making money from being the builder and the entrepreneur that created that platform so you see god's plan to prosper you are not to harm you you know is brought to bear by your sticking to what you believe is god's plan for you you know so um that is something that you have to know i remember the words of job you know in job forty two verse one to two then job replied to the lord i know that you can do all things no people's of yours can be threatened so if it is god's purpose for you to be a teacher it is not going to be taught that it is not going to be defeated all you have to do is work in union with god and you'll be provided for you know you'll have your needs met you know you have to trust in god lean not on your own understanding in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct you parts that being said in order to go to alfredo's vip if you have not given your life to jesus christ i would like you to click the salvation prayer link in the main menu and do that they paid you commander has a prayer of salvation say that prayer and give your life to christ that's it for today thank you and god bless you
