I was a stay at home mum for 6 years, I started learning digital design during the pandemic in 2020. Fast forward to 2023, I now work as a full-time designer for a company abroad from Nigeria. I work remotly. I learnt the skills free on youtube.

I initially didn't know why the algorithm threw this in my face, but in God's design, I saw it. Black tax is real for me. God kept orchestrating things until I saw this. The weight of guilt was so huge on me because I began to choose prudence and savings over lavish support to family members. There are many nuances in this message. This message came at the right time. Thank you for delivering the message as God placed it in your heart.

There is a generation of balanced teaching, wisdom, and spirituality growing in the church. Pst Femi is leading at the forefront, we desperately need a mindset shift as Africans. we need to take responsibility and prepare ourselves for all-round excellence. Thank you for this timeless message.

Finding balance is really important. As the first born of the family it's has been something on my mind to help my family problems. But then "Don't start what you can't finish" I would only help in a way that I can only consistently repeat. Never give the impression that you have so much. God bless you Apostle❤️

Sometimes you need to understand that the money you're throwing around is not a sign of generosity it's a sign of financial illiteracy. Anything you don't have plan for can fly. One wishes to have known this few yrs ago but it's never too late,,,, Blessings Apostle for such a great teaching ❤️🙏

I have never heard someone explain my ideology of giving this way before. I thought I was broken for thinking this way, I'm glad I'm vindicated. No more guilt! Hallelujah!

I am not a fan of pastors but I must commend this teachings. I was advised to watch and I appreciate the adviser. I'm following all your teachings henceforth.

This message is for me, I 'm not doing well financially because I have been unwisely giving, sending my irresponsible cousin's child to school has caused my siblings to demand financial assistance for their children as well.Now that I don't help them with their children 's needs they are angry at me.I 'm being taxed because I 'm single but this year I told myself that I will rather be hated than being held back.I thank God for this message 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I'm now an online member of Pst Femi's congregation. Since the first day i came across your reel on Instagram, a had a reconsideration of my living. Your messages are so relatable and practical. Thank you sir for these teachings.

Only a good man preaches his mistakes... what a message!

Halfway into this message, I got the opportunity to practicalize. The me who out of guilt, give always without savings, had to return the caller's statement "e choke for here too o" Na person wey stand go fit lift others. God bless you, sir.

“Anybody who tries to become ElShaddia shall die” 😂 Thank you Pastor

This is the ONLY msg I need to SURVIVE YEAR 2024! Oh Lord, I thank You for using Your Servant to DELIVER ME FROM SCAMMERS (in person of MY SIBLINGS!!!). I'v been blind for years, but now, I see! May God refill your virtues, Pst. Lazarus! 🙏

I came across this particular message in December of last year and I can tell you that it has been helping me to be balanced when it comes to spending/giving. Yeah, I made a few mistakes last year, and when I downloaded and started this message, one thing stood out for me: 'They will survive even if you don't give them'. Thank you sir for the message 🙏

Walai this man is loaded, this message was on repeat althrough the night, i got to the office this moring, since i am less busy, it is to repeat the messages, so many things i did not hear the first time.... Sir God bless you for changing my life... This is life changing

This message should have been titled "BSc to PhD on Black Tax". Knowledge is Power...Revelation is Freedom!

I was skeptical at first but the moment he started to balance his message with reality is when i began to respect this man

This message has gone viral because it is full of wisdom nuggets. God bless your ministry

Honestly, I came here from Instagram too. I like what the media and publication team is doing. God bless them for bringing these sound teachings to our faces. I’ve been so so blessed. Too much wisdom.

This msg will soon be an excuse not to help many in need. Pastor did not say don't help at all o. Pls don't stop helping but not at the expense of your own peril. I come in peace .

Listening 🎧 to this, i remember one time, i was in the church, my pastor friend brought a lady to me, and said she needed support, i ask her, will you work, she said yes, because i told i am not financially strong to carry ur problems but i can offer u a job, the funny thing was thst, she work for only three months with so much complaints, throwing words to the church, and later left the job. Many people are very irresponsible and are waiting to play the emotional game.

Street sense mixed with spiritual wisdom. Thank you. Sharing this with my older brother right away. He needs to hear this. God bless you and increase you in wisdom.

I came here to watch the full video after seeing the wisdom embedded in short clip... More Grace Sir!

Of all the languages in the world Pastor Femi chose to speak FACTS!!!! My God!

Guilt trip,toxic siblings, infact I could relate with everything the man God of said.I wish I knew this before, but it's time for paradigm shift. Many things to unlearn. This is an end of scamming system!!!!!!!

This Black Tax message is timely and much needed. I'm glad I came across this. Thank you pastor for being a blessing through this message. I'm sure I will be back.

In an aspect, I do not regret that I helped people, but I wish I had this wisdom earlier. Today it looks like I am drowning actually... There is actually wisdom here. I am actually a victim to so many things he's talked about.

These words can only come by the Holy Spirit. The flesh can never say this. Thank you Lord for your word is Ye and Amen

Stingy mood activated 100% I must breakout of poverty. Thank you sir

Man of God, I was so blessed by this sermon! I made my mum and fiancee watch along with me. The message is deep and life changing. Thank u so much!!!! From Sierra Leone

Not sure how he was able say all these things with a straight face. Very true message for Nigerians.

Thank God for this message. It's goin to save me LOTS cus gosh being an emotional Giver is not wise 😭

Always learning… my night therapy. I’ve laughed and learned. God bless you Sir! I’m your member from the UK

This is so true that I am so angry in my spirit. How can a message get you so upset because its the painful truth.😭

No truer words have been said, I pray whoever stumbles on this gets the understanding and wisdom to implement it to break the pattern if present.

This has to be the best end of year message to prepare you for next year and other years ahead! Thanks man of God

Great message!! Black Tax has crippled many! Thank You Femi

This was very timely... I noticed the moment I started giving... The responsibility increased... And at some points, I increased the money I normally send home just to reduce the frequency of asking but it increased as a matter of fact... Glad to learn a lot of concept from this... Make person no go die from overhelping

An eye opener I must say. Thank you, Apostle.
