Draw The Circle A Life Of Prayer

Welcome to Hanaway Tagalog Sermon Podcast, your daily dose of inspiring,

heartfelt tagalog.

Sermons from different pastors and speakers all over the Philippines.

We hope that this podcast finds you in good shape.

And now here's your message us for several weeks. It's Job.

How about that the Book of Job, And I'm actually

reading in Job in the Chronological Bible right now, chapter

twenty two, verse twenty eight. You will also decree a

thing or declare a thing, and it will be established

for you. It will be established for you, and light

will shine on your ways. Because when you decree it,

then you need the path to walk. Amen, you need

that direction. So I'm going to take a little bit

of time and we're going to just have a flow

of some different leaders coming up and maybe declaring a

scripture and then praying into it for them or for

us or for our region. And I'm gonna get Bubby

and Jill to come on and start this because they've

been using a book that I taught out years ago

called The Circle Maker, and they've been posting this. It's

a workbook and they've been circling things in prayer with scriptures.

So come on, up, and I want you guys to

be ready, and Andrew will be back up in a moment.

I don't know where he went. Hollily okay with He's

coming back up, and we'll just kind of have a

flow with some music playing, but just share what you're

doing and read some scripture and declare that.

I'm letting him go first.

Well, starting on January one, I have a men's group

that I'm part of and we're piggybacking it's a forty

day prayer challenge off of the Circle Maker. It's called

Draw the Circle, and so for forty days, it's got

a scripture and a little theme for each day. And

so we have just been concentrating on it and immediately

went out and got the book.

I brought it home.

And I asked you.

Sorry, told her about it and asked her to join in,

and she said sure. So we've been doing that and

it's just really been a blessing. And you know, one

of the things I wanted for this year for me,

because I was really wanting to concentrate on the Lord

just getting into my soul, my heart, and I just

wanted to know him a lot better, a lot closer,

and so I really felt like my prayer life was

lacking and for me to get closer to Him, I

was going to have to develop a better prayer life,

a more consistent prayer life. And so I tell you

what really started it for me. I'm going to give

you a little testimony. I was actually on the trainer,

brother Mark, and I was listening to worship music, and

so this song came on. I said, set a fire

down in my soul, and I just couldn't get that

off my mind. I kept thinking, Lord, just set a

fire done in my soul. And that's what started it

for me. And so every morning before the prayer, I

listened to that song. I pull it up and I

meditate on that song and then I go to the

Lord in prayer and it's really it's really challenged me.

I can already feel the growth, and that's what I wanted.

I wanted to grow, and so I'm really looking forward

to twenty nineteen what it has to offer. I know

that one of the things that I feel in my

spirit that you have to be ready for the attacks,

because when you're doing something for the Lord, the devil

doesn't like it. And so I'm really praying against those

attacks of the devil. I want to read you a scripture.

It's in Ephesians chapter three, verse twenty. I don't know

what happened, but I was trying to hold out to

fifty five for the readers, and it just it caught

me about eight months too early. So for about eight

months I've been using the readers. Ephesians chapter three, verse

twenty says, now all glory to God, who is able,

through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish,

to accomplish infinitely more than we ask or think, more

than we ask or think. And when I'm reading these

devotionals each morning, I really feel like that's where I'm challenged,

because sometimes it's just hard for the Lord for you

to see in yourself that the Lord can use you.

You know, I think it's for somebody else, And I

don't want to think that way. I want the Lord

to use me. In Verse twenty one says glory to

Him in the Church and in Christ Jesus, through all generations. Forever.

God is good.

He answers prayers. And I don't know why Bubby would

think it's surprising that he would ask me to read

or pray with him. But that's just the humbleness of him.

He doesn't expect or require or demand. He never has.

Of course, my heart would follow him anywhere. So for

my husband to ask me to do our prayer book

or pray with him is it's wonderful. So I'm I'm

just excited for what God's doing. And you know, as

I walk through new doors, my prayer is, God, I

don't want to go without you. If you don't go

with me, I don't want to go. And I ask

that every morning God, I just want to have your words,

and with the people I come across, I want him

to see your heart and give me the words to

say to them. And this morning, of course, I was

praying that again, and these were the words that came

to my mind. And he said, ask and you shall receive,

Seek and you will find, knock and it will be answered.

So he's faithful, Matthew seven seven, don't quit asking, seeking

or not. And our prayers outlive us. Our prayers outlive us.

So well, Chris, come on team right here. We're gonna

pray a blessing over this. Their prophesigned really not only

their own future, but our future. Amen. And so we're

gonna just what they're decreeing, what Bubby's decreeing. See, this

is family Sunday, and it's cool, and you just got

to know part of your family even more so. Chris,

you're gonna launch this.

Everybody in here, stretch your hands out toward his family.

Come on, man, this is a genuine moment.

Bubby.

As you were talking, just setting over there, I remember

years and years ago there was a fella came through

called you out. Didn't know you from Adam, didn't know

anything about you. We talked about you and influence and

all kinds of good things that everybody in this house knows.

And Father, we just agree right now for this fam family,

such a family of influence. Father, I thank you that

in this new year, Oh my goodness, the depths of

the influence, the doors that are going to open. Bubby,

I'm gonna encourage you right now. I'm just feeling this

from the Lord that every time that we have a

ministry opportunity, brother, run down front, pray over anything. I

don't care what it is, I don't care who it is.

Because like Jill was saying, you're you're such a right

heart and the right spirit. God's looking for guys like

you that just you know, just just happy to just

show up in the bag and just stick your hand

out and say a little two or three word prayer,

and God just boom, show up with something awesome because

you're so genuine and you're so real, and you're coming

from such a right place of wanting to hear the

Lord's voice and say exactly what he is saying and

carry it in the same heart that the Lord would

carry it. So humble and so pure. Father, we thank

you for this family. Father, We thank you for the

great things we're going to see coming through this family

in the new year. As it is their hearts cry, Lord,

let me hear your voice, Let me just repeat what

you're saying. Let me be just a mirror reflection of

what you're doing Lord in the earth today. So Father,

we thank you for that that's powerful in this family.

And we thank you Lord for you attaching people to

this family that need a seasoned word, that need that scripture,

that need that encouragement. They're coming your way. They're coming

your way, Bubby and Jill, because your heart is so

after the Lord. Thank you, Father, in Jesus' name, in

Jesus Name, Amen.

Amen, that's awesome. Come on, let's give the Lord praise

for doing that for them. Yeah, Laura, come on up,

miss Laura.

Yeah.

I want miss Laura over here. You talk about hard

work or minister of the Lord. I want her to

read a scripture, declare something over whatever you can do it.

I'm gonna sit sorry, said please, Holy Spirit, thank you,

thank you for being here, for being you. Thank you

God for restoring things, for restoring us, Lord to a

place where we are next to you, where we can

work with Holy Spirit, every moment that we're not working

for you, that we're working with you, that we're fixing

our eyes on you, and you were perfecting our faith

through that. Lord for the times where we' turned around.

I thank you, Father, God, that your forgiveness has restored

us to our rightful places, sons and daughters. Your sweet presence,

Lord is here. Anything we need. God has for us,

the good things. We have to reach out and take it.

And like Andrew said during praise and worship, that balance

between that contentment and being thankful and that hunger to

go after something else is so important. Lord, help us

to keep our eyes fixed on You, that we wouldn't

turn around, because that's when we get in trouble. Lord,

isn't we take our eyes off you. You're such a

good God, good father. We thank you in Jesus' name.

Amen, Mother, I disagree with Laura. Father. She is declared

we're co labors. Everybody say co laborers, not working for you,

working with you, and being sensitive to your voice. Thank

you for her sensitivity in Jesus' name, Amia Perry.

I just want to ask you, guys, if you'll, if

you'll let me help you with one thing, Okay, if

you'll let me help you with something. I'm just asking

so this. I'm a teacher, so I've had a lot

of teacher training and one of the main things they

tell us is that nobody improves without feedback.

So Bubby was.

Talking about humility and how many of you know that

if if you get negative feedback, it takes a lot

of humility to receive it. So I just want you

to think this year differently when people speak something to

you that could offend you, or that you might automatically

put a wall up real quick. This year, let feedback

happen in your life. Let the Holy Spirit, first of all,

give you feedback. He's the best and the gentalist, and

he'll give you feedback. Sometimes it will make you laugh, right,

he'll make you just absolutely crack up because he knows

you so well. So this year, if you get feedback

and you know, husbands and wives, wow, that's a feedback place, right, Yeah,

I know none of you have ever argued over any

feedback you've gotten from a spouse, right, But this year,

just listen, don't put the wall up, listen and try

to adjust the best you can with God's help.

You'll have to.

Say I'm a mess. Lord, I cannot do this without you,

over and over. But if you do that, growth happens.

Growth happens, and that's what we want, right. We want

to grow this year. We want this year to be

different from last year. So we have to make adjustments,

don't we. So I just want to declare father this year.

I declare open hearts, open minds, open spirits. Father, that

when you speak or others speak and we're corrected or

we're giving feedback, that we would humble our minds, humble

the voices that try to tell us whatever they tell us,

and that we would make progress this year. Let us

get traction in areas that we've never had it before.

Help us move forward in areas that we've been immature

or childish about. And Father, help us grow this year.

We cannot grow without the Body of Christ. It will

never happen. So help us be committed this year, Father,

to the Body of Christ. Whatever it looks like in

our life, but help us be committed. And I thank

you for that in Jesus' name.

And it's good and healthy. And Perry's tiny in even

with what I was going to speak about today, and

we'll keep it next week. Some things you only get

in connection in the Body of Christ. Tamian, So be

here next Sunday. If not, I have to correct you now,

Jody Gluta. And it maze everybody uses their phone now

for their Bible.

It's because I'm forgetful old. I won't lose my phone. Okay, Well,

the Holy spirits asked me to say something that I

don't The Holy Spirit has asked me to say something

that I really don't want to say. But I'll just listen.

I should have gone before Perry, but just just humility

and being teachable. So Ben hung a paper towel holder

in my house. We had one underneath the counter, and

he hung it. He hung a new one on the

windowsill in my kitchen, and I think it looks absolutely hideous,

and I was so mad at him for hanging it there,

although it was the most practical place to put it,

and it looks ridiculous. And the devil was really lying

to me and telling me that he hung it there

just to annoy me, because he obviously knew. And I'm like,

we've been married, you know, this year will be twenty

two years and my husband is one of the kindest,

selfless people. But that particular day, he very intentionally hung that.

They're just kidding just to annoy me. And I the

Lord had given me a dream of in relation to

a lot going on with our family with Ben's side.

The family was settling a state and stuff, and I

was putting out all these small fires. But I just

I was talking to my sister and I told her

that obviously our marriage was doomed because my husband didn't

love me because he put the he hung the thing up,

and she goes, you remember how you had that dream

with the small fires and God was giving you stuff

to extinguish all the small fires, and like that is

not related. You know, and it is and it is

and today it's hilarious and I don't even care. And

when I as soon as I said something to him,

He's like, well, we can move it. It's not a

big deal at all. And I'm like, what, You're supposed

to be mad at me for being mad at you,

you know? And anyways, is so not at all what

I have planned on sharing. But I just want to

declare over families today that we are we walk in

humility one with another, that we are quick to forgive,

that we are kind and tenderhearted one to another, that

we prefer one another, that we look for the best

in one another, that we aren't expecting evil when you

have good things for us, God, That we are thankful

God for one another. We are thankful for our spouses.

We are thankful for our children. We are thankful for

our church. We are thankful for our pastors.

God.

We are just grateful for your abundance. God. And I

thank you that you give us people, that when we

have silly thoughts, that you reveal truth God, things that

don't even matter an hour later or the next day. God,

but we blow up into something huge at that moment. Father,

forgive us. But thank you God, that you are the

one who brings us into truth, into into alignment with

your truth.

God.

So God, I just thank you, Lord, and I just

I just Lord, you are so faithful and so kind

to us God, and we are just so so grateful.

And this is what I was thinking earlier. Was this

last weekend I received this scripture from Ecclesiastes. It says,

cast your bread on the water, and it will return

to you. And it's in chapter eleven. And for look

further on in that scripture it says, let me actually

read it. It says, sow your seed in the morning.

Verse six says, sow your seed in the morning, and

do not be idle with your hands in the evening,

for you do not know whether morning or evening planting

will succeed, whether this or that, and whether both alike

will be good. And I just want to encourage you.

I'll just keep you and faithful, Just keep being faithful.

You don't know when the seed that you've planted is

going to bear fruit. One day, it's just all of

a sudden poof you're going to see something. You're like,

where did that come from? And Gods, it's because you

were faithful in planting the seeds of kindness through prayer,

through your Bible reading, through whatever it is that you're

sowing seeds, and just be faithful and keep planting it

because you are going to see the fruit of that.

And I just believe that that twenty nineteen is going

to be the year of fruition of seeing the seeds

that have been planted in past seasons.

Well, let's give Jody a hand clap, and it's cool

see what they're sharing. But yet they're declaring over us.

And maybe everybody bring Jody a roll of paper towels. Halalujah,

I love it. Yeah, oh you've got some Okay, real

short because we got yeah quick, everybody say quick being because.

Okay, So for me, it's about business man. So I'm

not sure if you have anybody for business, but I

want to declare over business. God laid on my heart

very beginning of year to either seek better business opportunities.

But I believe now just can declare so in Jesus name,

I declare God for for godly businesses out of the

house of out of our house here God that that

Lord that either new businesses, because the Lord they're out

there or or or better ideas, Lord of old business ideas,

that I declare God that you would help us by

Holy spirit, you would help us to to just to

run businesses in a godly manner. Lord, we don't have

to we don't have to preach, but God, we can

have godly business foundations, and God, we I declare that

they would be fruitful and multiply. Lord, throughout this house,

I pray and declare God for new business ideas in

Jesus name. And I declare God for businesses that are

already h in in gear and emotion. God, that they

be prosperous and they be generous in Jesus' name. Amen,

that's perfect.

Come on, let's give me in a handclap And I'm

glad you covered that. Amen, Adrian, you had some share

real quick. My daughter in love? How about that? My

daughter in law like saying daughter in love?

Okay, I'm going to try and simplify, and I'm feeling

a lot. I'm kind of swimming right now. So before worship,

the scripture I got was the same one that my

husband said, And so I'll just thank the Lord for

that that we flow together. At first, I was a

little annoyed he took my scripture, but apparently God wants

to say it. So I was going to read to

you Philippians for a few verses. So rejoice in the

Lord always. Again, I will say, rejoice. And I just

keep hearing some of these as commands. So instead of

it being a nice thought, it's a command that I'm

to rejoice always, and let your gentleness be known to

all men. The Lord is at hand. And I just

wanted to declare for those of you who don't believe

that you're that people would see you and they would

know your gentleness, and it would be from the Lord.

So I just declare over you that your.

Gentleness would be known to all a mankind around you,

and that would declare that the Lord himself is at

hand in your life. And then be anxious for nothing

but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let

your requests be made known to God. That is also

a command to be anxious for nothing. So I just declare, Lord,

whatever verbiage we use when we don't recognize anxiety, when

we say we're focused, when we say we're thinking, when

we say that we are concentrating, we are on edge

we're frustrated, Father, anything where we're not abiding in your

presence and fully at peace. What I just pray that

you would awaken their hearts and their eyes to know

that that is anxiety, and that they are commanded in

that moment to put their trust in the Lord. Lord

help us all to abide at all times in You.

And so I just declare for those of us who

anxiety has been something we've always had.

So that was me.

I didn't know the difference, and I'm still learning, especially

as a mom right now. I mean, it just happened

out there, and that's a little why I'm swimming that

it's so familiar to me. I don't even know. I'm

on edge.

I don't even know.

And I never called it anxiety.

That we would know what.

It feels like to abide in the Lord. So I

just declare their spiritual senses be awakened God, that they

would see, they would hear, they would feel, and they

would know what the spirit realm is like, what it's

like to abide and the tangible presence of God. And

we just declare the peace of God over them. God,

the peace that you speak about here is peace that

Jesus gives not the peace of the world that can

be taken away. And so I just declare that Jesus

released his peace to you and that you would feel

different levels of that peace in your life daily, guarding

your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus, and that whatever

things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are

just and pure and lovely and of good report, virtue,

and anything praiseworthy, they would meditate and dwell on these things.

So Lord, I just pray over minds, Lord, that you

would declare your good works over their life daily. I

just pray that minds would take on the mind of Christ, Lord,

and that they would give you.

All of the negative.

Lord, I just thank you for your perspective at all times,

your truth.

Lord.

I thank you that you expose facts and you expose

the works of the enemy, but not because you don't

have a plan. God, I thank you that we are

not like those without hope. And so Lord, I thank

you that we face our day with hope. I just

declare that they have hope in their strategies, hope and

trust in you God for the perspective that you have.

And then the last thing is at the very end,

when he says that I have learned of whatever said.

I am to be content, and I know how to

be a base and how to abound everywhere and in

all things. I've learned both to be full and to

be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. I

can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me. I

was just feeling the Lord saying, even in our emotions,

in our soul, so it's not just about need like

physical need and provision. At A lot of us read

that scripture and we think of provision of when I'm

in want and when I need things, when I need

Him to provide for a situation or for something tangible

in my life, something I'm praying about. And I feel

like the Lord was talking about our hearts though, that

in our soul and in our hearts, like right now,

I'm hurting for a loved one, and.

I do this a lot.

I hurt for people, But in it I know I

have unbelief and I have hopelessness, and there are still

some things I don't believe about God because I'm not

seeing what I believe to be true. And so I'm

just declaring over you that even in these things, we

would be content, that I would be content in knowing

the goodness of God is enough for what I'm believing

for even if I never see it.

And I'm learning to be okay with that.

But I know I am not content, And so Lord,

I just declare over everyone, especially myself, right now, that

I learn how to be full with when I feel

your presence, when I feel your joy, when I see

the promises of the Cross fulfilled in my life and

in others, I'm learning to rejoice and be full. But Lord,

when I'm hungry and my soul feels barren and it

feels wounded, and I know that I am not seeing

the Kingdom of Heaven on earth in many of our lives,

and I'm not seeing healing in people's lives. Lord, I

just thank you that I know how to be content.

I pray that people know how to be content with

the goodness of God, the sovereignty of God, the love

of God, and that it full surpasses what they are feeling.

And so I just pray for the barrenness and the soul. God,

I pray for emotions to be healed, or that they

would learn how to be stable and anchored in You,

angered in the goodness of God anchored in the hope

of God that does not disappoint. And I just pray

healing God to hopelessness, healing to unforgiveness and to bitterness

in this house.

And Jesus name aimen, this is awesome. What a great day. Yeah,

come on, let's give her a handclap. There's so many more.

Now I'm gonna get one more to come and even

give her some instruction. And then Jeanette, now pray and

with fellowship. I'm gonna get Miss Melody Taylor to come

on up because I want her to pray over all

our children and grandchildren and those that we would be mentoring.

This is an awesome mentor of children. And when she prays,

Heaven moves. Hallelujah. How many have a child or a grandchild,

or a sibling or someone younger than you and your

family that they need the Lord or they need change

in their life. Let me see your him. Okay, all right,

receive this from her.

Let me read this scripture. First, Blessed, Blessed. Blessed is

the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly,

nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in

the seat of the scornful. But his delight, his delight

is in the law of the Lord. And in this

law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall

be like a tree planted by the rivers of water,

that bringeth forth his fruit in his season, and his

lief shall not wither. And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

Whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. O God. We are trees

planted by the river of water, and our roots go deep,

deep down into that river, that living water, and we

draw strength, We draw everything we need, everything we need

for growth and producing fruit from that living water.

God.

Thank you, Thank you God that you give us an

abundant life. Thank you God. Thank you God for the

children You've put into our lives. God, thank you for

the children in this church. Thank you for the children

represented by every family here. God, you tell us to

become as little children, that if we want to be

part of your kingdom, we need to be as children.

We need to have faith like a child. Oh God,

open up our eyes as to what that means. And God,

I speak a blessing. Now up on all the children.

There are teachers. They're teaching us about the Kingdom. God,

help us to see it. Help us to see how

to be like those children, to just accept you as

Daddy God, to accept your love, and to know that

you've given us everything. We're joint heirs with Christ. I mean,

the shelves are full of all your blessings and all

your provision and all your resources and all your promises.

The shelves are full. You've provided it all. Help us

to be like little children that just know Daddy God

has given us all that stuff so we can live

an abundant life that he wants us to have. And God,

help us don't leave the promises just sitting there. Help

us not leave the resources just sitting on the shelf

and go about our daily business like we don't have

anything when we have everything. Oh God, don't let.

Me get to heaven.

And realize I could have done so much more if

I just reached out and taken down what you'd provided

for me already.

How many more.

Lives I could have touched, a difference I could have

made with this one or that one. And God, if

I don't know how to use those resources, your Holy

Spirit is the teacher. All I gotta do is ask Oh,

teach me how to use that. God, show me where

that goes, Show me God, show me God. All we

got to do is ask, Oh God, help this be

the year that we realize who we are. Help this

be the year we realize what we got. Help us

realize God, what an abundant life really means, and help

us to take it. Help us to do it. Help

us to walk with you to realize, Father God, that

those giants are nothing to us, those mountains are nothing

to us. That our Daddy God's got it all and

he's giving it all to us. And sometimes we don't.

Even we don't even use it. But Oh God, help

this be the year that our eyes are open. Our

eyes are open, our eyes are open. Help us to

be the blessed man that walks not in the council

of the ungodly, nor stands in the way of sinners,

or sits in the seat of the scornful.

But we're the tree planted by the rivers of water.

Our lief will not wither, and everything that we touch

will prosper. Help us God to see it, Help us

God to know it. Help us God to live it

for you or the Mighty God. And nothing is impossible

to you and you love to live yourself through us

touching others. Help us to do that.

God, help us to do that.

God, we give you the praise, we give you the glory,

We give the honor for you or the Mighty God.

See, I'm hoping today you're learning something that when we gather,

you have a privilege. But maybe can I say a

responsibility to be declaring into decreeing over someone. You see

someone discourage, go speak encouragement over them. You see someone

sick in body, go pretty healing over them. You see

a need, you go declare God's word over them, and

it becomes just strength and life for God to do something. Amen. Well,

I have a need I know give and it shall

be given unto you. So always be looking around, even

in your own need, what can I do for someone else?

Let's stand. I thought we'd be a little sharp of it. Man,

this is awesome. And Jeanette and I come on, honey,

we just want to bless you in the name of

the Lord. We're going to decree a blessing over you.

Let's fellowship be careful leaving today steps and the parking lot.

Just be real careful not to slip and so forth,

and drive home slowly and safely.

Amen.

So declare something, Honey, This is according to Second Thessalonians.

I said up last week three sixteen, Second Thessalonians three sixteen, Father,

the God of Peace, Father, I speak peace over our

family today, your peace. You don't send angels out to

bring us peace. You show up as peace. Peace be still, Father,

we receive your peace. You said in every circumstance. That

means that we don't know how it's gonna happen, but

you bring peace, and we align ourselves up with your peace.

Father.

I speak tangible presence of the Lord wherever we go. Father,

I speak out Lord that all of a sudden we're

in the car and your presence takes over and it

goes beyond what our mind says. It's the peace that

goes beyond our understanding. We receive it. Father, as a family. Father,

I speak that we are known as people that walk

in peace, and that where our feet go, peace goes

as well. Father, into Egypt, into other countries, Father, into

hellholes that nurses walk in to help people in this community.

I speak peace, Father, in the school system where there's

so much unrest, teachers walking in I speak peace, Father,

in doctor's offices where there's so confusion, so much confusion,

and people just want a proper diagnosis with the right

need taken care of. I speak peace. I speak creative,

creative answers, because you are the Prince of peace for

every family here today in Jesus' name, Peace be still.

We don't know how you're gonna make it right, but

we look to you because you are the God of

peace in Jesus's.

Name, and Father, I just declare just tagging onto what

Bubby says, that this would be a year of intentional

girl in all of our lives. Father, that we would

put forth the sacrifice and the effort to know you better,

to love you more, and celebrate the greatness of God

so people can see that transformation in us. We're hungry

for it, we're grateful for it, and we thank you.

This year is going to be an awesome year in you,

and everybody says Amen. Hey, next Sunday we'll speak on

the subject I was going to share today, but it's

going to be dealing with all of our connections. Okay,

let's have a great day. Encourage someone in the Lord

God bless.

Thank you for listening.
