Keion Henderson - Dealing With Deception

The Lord told me to show you how to deal with deception. This is what we’re going to talk about over the next few moments: dealing with deception. You 're coming into a season in your life where you don’t know the rules at the level you’re going to. You don’t know the rules when you go through that portal and reach the next dimension. You won 't know what to do when you have $10 million in the bank. You know how to file your taxes when you go to H&R Block, but you don’t know how to file your taxes with $10 million and a 1099-that’s a different game. Talk to me, somebody! I’m getting ready to show you that you have to prepare for the level you’re going to because if you reach that next level and bring these methods with you, they’re going to kick you out. You can 't enter a boardroom talking like you 're at a water cooler. Somebody shout, «I’m going to the next level!» Now, if I am in the room and if you’re online watching me, and you believe that God has assigned you to a different dimension, let me hear some noise. How many of you will agree that when you enter new rooms and new levels, you don’t always know what to do when you get there? How many of you are ready for some new information? Give your neighbor a high five before you sit down and tell them you’re going to learn to deal with this. You may be seated in the presence of the Lord. How many of you are ready for a word today? Recently, well first of all, let me tell you all that I’m cheap, okay? I’m just going to admit it right now. If I see a quarter, I’m picking it up. I mean, all you rich people passing up all these pennies and quarters on the ground-I have a jug of change because I’m not giving up anything, okay? And I know you’re rich and you 're blessed without sorrow and all that kind of stuff, but cents make dollars, right? So I count it all. I’m never going to have enough. In fact, I have my credit card set with an alert-anytime more than $25 is spent, I get a text: «Yep, $25 .» I’ve been thinking about lowering it to $10 because the enemy steals little by little. Y’all are laughing, but if someone steals $10 from you every day, you’re going to feel hit. So, I have my little alerts on. The other day, I got an alert on my credit card, and it wasn’t little; it was thousands of dollars that I didn’t think I spent. So, I called Destiny. I said, «Destiny, what are you doing with my credit card? I just got charged thousands of dollars, and I haven 't spent any money today, so what’s going on?» She said, «Man of God, I haven 't done anything either.» I said, «Well, I’m going to call the people .» How many of you know I used that 1-800 number on the back of that card? Oh yes, they were going to hear from me! So, I called them and they said, «Hey, Mr. Henderson, how can we help you?» I said, «I see a charge on my card that I didn’t make, and I don’t recognize the amount nor the merchant, so I need my money back because I haven 't spent it. I don’t want any foolishness from y’all; I want my money. I’m not going to be held responsible.» She did some research and said, «Mr. Henderson, you’ve been with us for 15 years; don’t worry, we 'll figure it out .» She asked, «Have you ever heard of such and such?» I said, «Yeah.» Then she asked, «Did you go to such and such and do this?» I said, «Why are you asking?» What I didn’t realize was that the company came up under a different name on the merchant account-not the name they do business as. See, the company was doing business as (DBA) a different name than the parent company. The charges were mine. I told the lady, «Oh ma 'am, I’m so sorry for bothering you with this; I just didn’t know .» But then I traced it back and realized that because we live in such a distrustful world, I was victimized by the way we all live every day. The truth is, you can’t trust anything, and you rarely can trust anybody. I mean, with the way this world is going right now, you don’t know what’s real or fake. You can get an email right now that looks like it 's from the right company, and you go and put in your password, and they’ve got you. How many of you have been contacted by some page posing to be me? «My dearest brother, I’m praying for you. If you send me $1,000 right now because I’m stuck in Africa…» Let me tell you something: if I get stuck in Africa, $1,000 is not going to get me home! I would never come to your direct message and ask you for anything. But we live in such a distrustful, deceptive world.
