  47. Humankind rejected life. Can we all say it together?

  48. Humankind rejected life. OK, so we are moving on straight

  49. to the scriptures. I wish that you project these

  50. scriptures for us. Genesis chapter 3, one to 11.

    Genesis 3 chapter mention

  51. Genesis chapter 3, one to 11, please.

    Genesis 3 chapter mention

  52. We are all going to join hands and read the Word together.

  53. After we are going to ask ourselves questions on these

  54. words. So we are all going to read

  55. together. Can you all see from where you

  56. are seated? Can we all see So we are reading

  57. from Genesis chapter 1, chapter 3, verse 1 to 11 ready go.

    Genesis 1 chapter mention

  58. He said to the woman, did God really say you must not eat from

  59. any tree in the garden? The woman said to the serpents,

  60. We may eat fruits from the tree in the garden, but God did say

  61. you must not eat fruits from the tree that is in the middle of

  62. the garden, and you must not continue.

  63. OK, good.

  64. No, Marima, great good. Then the man and his wife heard

  65. the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the

  66. cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the

  67. trees of the garden. He answered.

  68. OK, Yeah. Hallelujah, clap for yourselves,

  69. clap for yourselves. You are great students.

  70. A comedian once says that that was the time man filled an

  71. exams. Where are you?

  72. I'm in the garden and you had I said I was what naked the first

  73. time man filled exams? So the question is, pertaining

  74. this story we just read and humankind rejected life

  75. according to your own understanding to the scripture,

  76. what have you understood right now from what we just read?

  77. I didn't read it for you, read it for yourself.

  78. So what did you understand? Please, can someone tell me?

  79. Let's pass the mics around here. What have you?

  80. What or what did you understand for yourself?

  81. Humankind rejects life in order for us to finish it early.

  82. It will depend on you. Let us or should I mention names

  83. if persuasion fails? Aha.

  84. So our sister Karen, you start for us.

  85. Our sister Karen, tell us your own understanding pertaining

  86. this. Can you please open, increase

  87. the volume, please. Please wait.

  88. Let us give you this mic, OK? You want to hear everything

  89. you're saying, OK. OK, so from the scriptures we

  90. just. Read you.

  91. Can see that God commanded Adam and Eve, not eats from the tree

  92. in the middle. OK.

  93. Then he warned them that if they should eat from that tree they

  94. will settle in life. But then after Satan received

  95. them and he told them that and not make you die but don't see

  96. good and evil. So from what I understand is

  97. that the death comes with the eating from the food.

  98. It doesn't necessarily mean that we are dying an instance like in

  99. the instance we are going to die, right?

  100. Now. OK, but then.

  101. We are going to see good and evil, we are going to be

  102. attracted to the evil part, and the evil part is going to make

  103. us sin. OK as.

  104. You sin, yeah, the passing from God, then once you are passing

  105. from God, then you have no internal life.

  106. Let's shine for hair, let's shine for hair, let's shine for

  107. hair. That is very good.

  108. Our brother is also speaking. So I also learned that they

  109. trusted the devil more than God. We trusted the devil at that

  110. time. Yeah, they trusted that what the

  111. devil was seeing more what God told them.

  112. Hey, so is it happening in our time right now?

  113. Are we still trusting the devil somewhere and rejecting what God

  114. is telling us? God bless you.

  115. Mommy has also raised their hand.

  116. Please, if their mics are even 2, I'll be happy.

  117. One here, one there. So that it wouldn't be

  118. inconvenient for the person passing on the mic.

  119. We trusted the devil. Wow, praise God.

  120. Hallelujah. From the scripture we just read,

  121. I see total disobedience. Yes.

  122. And what's in the word that we learn?

  123. If we obey God, there are some reward that awaits us, and if

  124. you obey, to obey the consequences as children of God.

  125. Thank you. So from what she's saying,

  126. please, someone has raised their hand here.

  127. If you obey God, you accept life.

  128. If it is obey God, you reject what life.

  129. Thank you very much. Praise the Lord, Hallelujah.

  130. From the scriptures we read because we are not satisfied

  131. with what we have. We wanted to be like God, which

  132. is supposed to be not what the Lord wanted for us, because at

  133. first there was some light in us that we can use to communicate

  134. to God directly. But because we wanted to be like

  135. Him, we departed from the light. And we wanted to be in the

  136. darkness, but unknowing to us that if you eat the fruit, we

  137. will be like God. Not knowing the fruit will lead

  138. us to darkness. So it tells us that because of

  139. our agreed, that is why we departed from the light that was

  140. initially in this and now we are Into Darkness.

  141. That's why we are suffering. God bless you.

  142. Let's shine for him. Let's shine for him.

  143. God bless you. God bless you.

  144. OK, so let's continue. Let's continue.

  145. As time goes on, we'll open the floor for other questions.

  146. I'm reading something so please pay attention.

  147. God wants all people to have fellowship with him, but when we

  148. sin and reject him, that fellowship is broken.

  149. Please listen very carefully after you tell me there is the

  150. meaning of what I'm reading. God wants all people to have

  151. fellowship with him, but when we sin and reject him, that

  152. fellowship is broken. How do you understand this?

  153. How do you understand this? OK, my brother, help us from my

  154. understanding how we sin and is if we sin and acknowledge our

  155. sins. He said he's faithful and ready

  156. to forgive us our sins. But because we are sin and still

  157. do not acknowledge that we've sinned and rejected him, all the

  158. glory in US departed. Thank you.

  159. Thank you very much. Let's shine for him.

  160. Yes. Who else?

  161. Who else? Who else?

  162. You raise your hand. He will come to you.

  163. Praise the Lord, Hallelujah. The beginning we could.

  164. See that the reason why? God created man was to commune

  165. with him. Thank you.

  166. God created man to commune with him, so when we sin, we lost

  167. that kind of bond. God.

  168. Yes. It's all like brought a breakage

  169. between US and God. Thank you, Amen.

  170. Let's, let's shine for her. Let's shine for her.

  171. So as she is saying that the reason why God created us is to

  172. have fellowship with us, when we say fellowship, it might be a

  173. big word. Can we have a deep understanding

  174. to fellowship so we understand what God wants for both of us,

  175. himself and us? What is fellowship?

  176. What is fellowship if I may ask? Someone has raised her hand or

  177. you wanted to talk. OK, Fellowship.

  178. OK, my understanding, it's not like, you know, there are some

  179. people you feel like they are too high for you to even go

  180. closer. OK, he.

  181. Wanted us to be that father, daughter, father, kind, father,

  182. son relationship. OK, so.

  183. That if you even, you are going to ask something you wouldn't

  184. be, you wouldn't be so tense like.

  185. No protocol. Yes, Yeah, Hallelujah.

  186. I think our daddy also wanted to make a comment.

  187. OK, OK. So as we're saying, sin is full

  188. of darkness. So when you're seeing our minds

  189. and hearts are all occupied by darkness.

  190. Therefore anything that is good, which is light, scarce us away.

  191. So in crisis or in God, God is full of light.

  192. So anytime we commit a sin or we do something bad, the darkness

  193. process and not to be seen doing that or not to be seen that

  194. that's what you are engaging. We try to hide.

  195. And how do we hide going away from God so that our sins will

  196. not be made known to light. God bless you.

  197. God bless you so much. Bless you so much.

  198. Who else? Any other hand.

  199. OK, OK, so when we say fellowship, we can say

  200. companionship. So people, a group of people who

  201. have a common interest or share a particular belief.

  202. You see, God created us in his own image and its likeness.

  203. So we share the same interest with God.

  204. So that's the fellowship keyword, the same interests with

  205. God. One of the things that will take

  206. you away from the Lord is when you share a different interests.

  207. God likes this, you like that, then definitely you move

  208. according to what that particular thing instructs you.

  209. So he said that the interest of man was changed in the Garden of

  210. Eden. God bless you my brother.

  211. Any other. So your question was when he

  212. read, God wants all people to have fellowship with him, but

  213. when we sin and reject him, that fellowship is broken.

  214. So what does it mean? So when we read the scripture,

  215. it says that Adam heard the voice of God walking in the

  216. garden in the cool of the day, and then he went to hide.

  217. Why did he hide? Because when you look at the

  218. narration, it appears that God was always in a hurry to meet

  219. God. I mean, Adam was always in a

  220. hurry to meet God. But what happened today?

  221. The same God is coming and you are running away.

  222. The only defense was sin. So when you sin against God,

  223. even the desire to go to Him in fellowship goes away.

  224. You know deep inside that you have done something that is

  225. terrible and you don't deserve to be in the presence of God.

  226. Amen. OK, God bless you so much.

  227. Let's shine for him. Let's shine for him.

  228. God bless you. Now you can see that actually

  229. what happens whenever we sin, fear gets into us.

  230. We are filled with fear. So whenever you are doing

  231. something that is illegal according to the Bible, you get

  232. scared whenever the light is near if you're going to actually

  233. testify for, for that honor. In our daily lives.

  234. When a child is doing something bad and he hears the footsteps

  235. of the father or the mother, what happens?

  236. They begin to run or begin to hide.

  237. So Christians who have no sin in them, I'm not saying Christians

  238. who are not capable of sinning, That is different.

  239. Christians who have no sin in them.

  240. They are bold and they have faith when they pray.

  241. If they are sin in you, your prayer life even gets sports.

  242. It destroys the desire to pray. So as we continue, we are

  243. looking at 5 different areas. The first one is humankind

  244. rejected God's word. I'm going to read a little.

  245. I want us to listen. Then after we share ideas, when

  246. Eve began to listen to another voice, she began to go astray.

  247. Genesis chapter 3 verse one to six.

    Genesis 3 chapter mention

  248. Adam and Eve rejected God because they did not believe

  249. what he said about the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

  250. Rather, they all listen to the serpent, the devil, and followed

  251. his deception, while God was only gracious to them.

  252. So with what we have just read right now, the first points

  253. humankind reject God's word in our time.

  254. We also reject God's words in the time of Adam and Eve.

  255. We have all read over how they rejected God's word.

  256. I want you to look within our time.

  257. In what ways do we reject the word of God as Christians?

  258. In what ways? We already know what Adam and

  259. Eve did. Their time has passed.

  260. This is our time. In what way do you reject God's

  261. words? We always come to church every

  262. Sunday. We listen to the word of God on

  263. the radio, on the television, wherever we go on our wayside.

  264. God has made His word available at every vantage point, but we

  265. tend to what? Reject it?

  266. I want us to explain why do we reject the word of God in our

  267. time? I want us to narrow it here.

  268. Hallelujah, praise the Lord. Hallelujah.

  269. So please, I think. That, as you said, sometimes we

  270. hear the word of God, we will come to.

  271. Church and maybe. The word of God is talking about

  272. stealing or maybe corruption. And if you see by you an

  273. accountant at your office, oh, you are in need of money, your

  274. child is sick or you need money to do something and then the

  275. word of God is. Telling you that you shouldn't.

  276. Commit that sin, but you are also in need, so you go.

  277. You hear the Word though you know that truth, facts, you

  278. can't obey the Word of God. That's an example that I will

  279. give. OK, so you see the devil will

  280. create instances in life that will compel you to overlook what

  281. God said and also what you see when God gave them fruits

  282. around. You see God gave them a lot of

  283. fruits. Whenever God's instruction come,

  284. it comes with abundance. That is one thing.

  285. I know there were a lot of fruits over there, but they

  286. decided to reject all the fruits over there and go for just one.

  287. So anytime God, the devil puts you in a particular position for

  288. you to choose, remember that the moment you choose the light,

  289. there is abundance following the light.

  290. I hope you understand. But any what you just said,

  291. please someone also raise their hand.

  292. So I want to add this on. So it's on say, due to peer

  293. pressure, we find this than most places in our workplaces, in our

  294. schools and hospitals and everywhere.

  295. Maybe we want to please a friend or we've seen that this person

  296. is doing something. We might not be pressured at our

  297. instance, but then the thought start building, hey, what's if I

  298. start doing this thing? This thing cry is not even going

  299. to do it and then I'm not sinning big so far.

  300. If I go to church and I confess my sins, God is going to forgive

  301. me so I can still sin. Again, OK, so that's how it

  302. starts. So with the conscience that or

  303. let's say with the knowledge that oh, As for God is merciful,

  304. the moment I go and knel down and I pray God will forgive you.

  305. You see this forgiveness There is there is a particular some of

  306. us don't read the Bible. Well, there's a particular red

  307. line attached to God's forgiveness through repentance.

  308. There are certain temptations. They come.

  309. When that temptation comes, don't give it a chair to sit

  310. down. Then the moment you start

  311. entertaining it, how do we entertain it?

  312. We begin to think about it, we begin to analyze, ah, this

  313. thing, we look at the advantages of the sin, even if you know it

  314. is not good, by looking at the advantages, ah, this thing will

  315. help me. This thing will help me.

  316. I'm part of a very high social class in school.

  317. If I join these girls, they will help me to raise my status.

  318. You look at the advantages. That was what Adam and Eve also

  319. did. They wanted to be like God, look

  320. at it. But at the end it wasn't like

  321. that. So the devil used deception.

  322. Deception. In our time deception someone

  323. will be having an amount of money, very huge amount of

  324. money. Instead of investing it in

  325. business the person will go and invest it in lottery because of

  326. greed. And before you know his vision

  327. was to worth blow and before you know everything will just

  328. disappear. If only he had listened to the

  329. Lord, and the Lord told him to invest that amount of money in a

  330. business. So what we are saying is in

  331. every moment in our lives, even as soon as we leave this place

  332. that we go, we make decisions. Every day we make decisions

  333. whether you are young, whether you are old, but every decision

  334. you make will determine whether you have rejected God's Word or

  335. you have accepted God's Word. I hope you understand.

  336. Am I making sense this morning? Someone also wanted to talk.

  337. Please, who else can we move on to the next one?

  338. So we have understood how we reject God's Word every day.

  339. So as an advice to all of us, that every decision you take in

  340. life, even to the time you come to church, shows whether you

  341. have rejected God's Word or you have accepted it.

  342. Because we have been speaking about the time we come to church

  343. for as long as I can remember. But ask yourself, have you

  344. changed? Have you made any, any decision

  345. to change and also to stick by it?

  346. We might change for two weeks, but then we go back.

  347. So I pray to God that the may the Lord grant us the power of

  348. consistency. The power of consistency.

  349. It's media and the papano, but say it's the problem.

  350. So I pray that the Lord will grant us the power of

  351. consistency. Being consistent in your prayer,

  352. being consistent in choosing what is good, being consistent

  353. in, in, in, in fighting for what is good or being on the Lord

  354. side. Not today you are on the Lord

  355. side. Tomorrow the world is favoring

  356. you. So if you are the world side, if

  357. you are like that, Bible says that you are a lukewarm and it's

  358. going to spit you out. Let's move on to the next point.

  359. Humankind did not let God reign in their lives.

  360. Humankind did not let God reign in their lives.

  361. I'm reading very shortly. Then we so that we go through

  362. it. Sin does not only mean doing

  363. what is evil. It also means not putting God's

  364. first in your life, not believing in Him or and not or

  365. sorry, and not obeying Him. The 1st and greatest commandment

  366. is love the Lord your God with all your hearts, with all your

  367. soul, and with all your mind and with all your strength.

  368. My chapter 12 verse 30. It is not murder or adultery.

  369. Adultery that is the greatest sin.

  370. Not allowing God to rule over all yes our lives is rather the

  371. greatest sin. Look at how it is someone can go

  372. through adultery, murder, but they are telling us that is not

  373. the greatest sin but not loving the Lord with all your hearts.

  374. Let's continue. The devil does everything he can

  375. to get us to dispute God and his word.

  376. Genesis 3124 as you leave if you do not pray and prayer does not

  377. matter to you, it means you have rejected God.

  378. If you are afraid of idols or witch witchcraft and cannot have

  379. faith in God that he can protect you, then it means that you have

  380. rejected God. If you think that a fetish

  381. priest or an amulet from a certain malam can cure you, then

  382. you have rejected God. Doctors, herbalists and many

  383. healers can help you, but as far but As for the disease itself,

  384. it is God who heals. Hallelujah.

  385. So with what we have just read, I want us to discuss this one

  386. too. Humankind did not let God reign

  387. in their lives. What did you hear and what

  388. comments are you giving based on what you had?

  389. Thank God they have projected it.

  390. God bless you. Media.

  391. Media team. Yes, Hey, there are some people

  392. talking here. The others, hey, some people

  393. don't want to talk this morning. I'll start mentioning names.

  394. We can use, we can relate it to Revelation 3, verse 20.

    Revelation 3:20

  395. OK, he. Says behold, I stand at the door

  396. and look if anyone hears my voice and open the door, I'll

  397. come in and dine with him and be with him.

  398. So in our lives, you know, we have priorities.

  399. Should I say our addictions are our priorities?

  400. We are addicted to our phones, social medias and stuff.

  401. So we've placed that in our hearts and God is knocking on

  402. this. What puts him first?

  403. But then we are not putting him 1st.

  404. Instead, we are putting the social media, their mobile

  405. phones, the other things we find importance or the other things

  406. we are addicted to. We are putting them first before

  407. God. So God is saying that we should

  408. put Him first so that we don't reject Him, but then but that we

  409. are putting other things first. God bless you.

  410. Let's shine for her. Let's shine for her.

  411. God bless you. So pertaining what our sister

  412. Karen said, what have you or what is raining over you in your

  413. life? What is raining in your life?

  414. Is it your work? Is it your money?

  415. Is it your marriage? Is it your children?

  416. When I said what is raining in your life, meaning what you give

  417. priority to, what you give attention to, As soon as that

  418. thing speaks, you stop any other thing and you focus on it.

  419. I can't tell you what you are focusing your mind or what is

  420. raining in your life, but you know it.

  421. I also know mine. So the Word is telling us today

  422. that humankind did not let God reign in their hearts during

  423. their time. What about this time?

  424. Are we allowing God to reign in our hearts when we read

  425. something over here? He says that when you don't pray

  426. and prayer doesn't matter to you, what have you done?

  427. You have rejected God. If you come to church at the

  428. same time, you rely on some malam somewhere you go and bath

  429. with coconuts, water and some other mixtures somewhere you

  430. have rejected. Yeah.

  431. So you might not reject him verbally, but there are certain

  432. attitudes that we put out that's main shows that you have what

  433. rejected the Lord. So we made mention of some of

  434. these things will be done in the next 5 minutes.

  435. So if we reject God, we we get under the power of the devil.

  436. That is the next one. Since humankind rejects God and

  437. the life He gives, they have been under the power of the

  438. devil. You see Romans chapter one verse

  439. 28 to 32. For that only the life of God

  440. can pull us out of the character described in the text we read.

  441. So when you reject God, it means that you have come under the

  442. power of the devil. Someone says that I don't belong

  443. to the devil and I also don't belong to God.

  444. It is a lie from the pit of hell.

  445. Oh me, I don't believe in anyone.

  446. I'm just there in this world. Whether you know it or not, the

  447. moment we introduce Jesus Christ to you and you decide to reject

  448. him, or you know Jesus Christ, but yet your life is not

  449. depicting the life of Jesus Christ, your life shows that you

  450. have rejected him. It means that automatically you

  451. are for the devil. So sometimes I get hurt when I

  452. see people who are around and they don't know anything about

  453. Jesus Christ, meaning that if they die, if they die and they

  454. don't know Jesus, automatically they are under who, under the

  455. devil and they are going straight to hell.

  456. And it is something that you and I should think about.

  457. So that is the tired point. When you reject God, we come

  458. under the reign of the devil. When you stop praying, you come

  459. under the reign of the devil. When you stop coming to church,

  460. you come under the reign of the devil.

  461. When you stop paying your tithes, stop paying your

  462. offering, you only do what is wrong or what is right for you.

  463. Bible says that there is a way that in the eyes of the man

  464. looks right. There is a particular way that

  465. looks right in the eyes of man, but in the eyes of God it is

  466. wrong. So this particular morning I

  467. encourage everyone to remove that human spectacle and begin

  468. to wear the spiritual spectacle which is the Word of God.

  469. The Word of God is the only word that will help you see who you

  470. are, the true person. If you want to know your

  471. capabilities, your I can do and I cannot do, visit the Word of

  472. God. Do not reject the Word of God

  473. because everything we are doing here on earth right now is being

  474. recorded whether you have rejected Christ or not.

  475. Right now, as we are seated here, the only great event we

  476. are waiting for is the rapture. As we are seated here right now,

  477. the next event to happen is the rapture because everything the

  478. Word of God has said will happen has already happened.

  479. So I encourage everyone to make sure that you stay glue to the

  480. Word of God. Because of our time, I want to

  481. summarize everything. Humankind cannot blame God for

  482. the sins in human's life. Can we blame God?

  483. Can we blame God? Why can't we blame God?

  484. I need just one person to tell me if we cannot blame God.

  485. So if you do not go to heaven, do not blame.

  486. So everything that happens to you, you blame who?

  487. You blame yourself because who is making the decision?

  488. Who decided to eat banku this month before coming to church?

  489. You, not God who decided to hide offering and not give anything.

  490. You who decided to fornicate yesterday night.

  491. You who decided not to do what is right in the eyes of the

  492. Lord. You and not God.

  493. So meaning that you are making the decision.

  494. You have decided to hold the drivers wheel and put God at the

  495. backseat. But it is my prayer that this

  496. particular morning will have a change of mind.

  497. Say change of mind, change of mind, allow God to hold the

  498. steering wheel, allow the Lord to hold the steering wheel and

  499. how we do that by submitting ourselves to the Word of God.

  500. Everything the Word of God is telling us to do, see, let us

  501. begin to do it. The Word of God is not maths and

  502. science that you are going to write tests at the end.

  503. We practice it. That is where you will see what

  504. God has told you. The reason why most of us cannot

  505. even give testimony is because we cannot.

  506. We are not practicing the word of God.

  507. So the woman who made the word of God practical, trust me, you

  508. begin to see the word of the works of the Lord in your in

  509. your life. Rejecting God and His word leads

  510. to death. For the wages of sin is death,

  511. but the gift of God is eternal life.

  512. So when you reject God it means you want to die.

  513. Simple. That is what you are saying.

  514. So let's revisit our lives and see how best God told Adam.

  515. For when you when you eat from it, you will certainly die.

  516. Adam, did Adam really die? Yes, the death we are talking

  517. about is not physical death. The physical death will come,

  518. but spiritually to you die. Meaning whoever that is seated

  519. here that cannot hear the voice of the Holy Spirit that is not

  520. touched when the word of God comes, the conscience that helps

  521. you to determine this is right or wrong is dead.

  522. You can't feel any remorse for anything you do, no repentance.

  523. It means you are dead. Woo by your working.

  524. You are not sensitive to the Spirit.

  525. And one thing I'm scared of as I bring the discussion to an end,

  526. my time is up. One thing I'm scared of is that

  527. those who will be raptured are those who are spiritually

  528. sensitive. Because if you are spiritually

  529. sensitive, let me use security as example.

  530. Security wise, if you are sensitive, there's camera all

  531. over your house, there's this electric fence.

  532. Because you know the thief can come at any time.

  533. So you are very sensitive. But if spiritually you are not,

  534. it means that the thief can come at any time and you'll be

  535. asleep. Bible tells us that Jesus is

  536. going to come like a thief, and on that day a lot of people will

  537. be gathered here. Some will be taken, the others

  538. will sit. A husband and a wife will be on

  539. the bed. One will be taken, the other

  540. will leave. This is not far from us, this is

  541. not far from us. So as I bring this to an end, I

  542. believe it's on the page and we can still go through.

  543. When we go home, I pray the Lord will give us a change of hearts

  544. and when he comes, He will tell us, good and faithful servants

  545. come into my Kingdom. May the Lord bless the

  546. discussion. Amen.

  547. Stretch your hands and bless our elder and I'll God bless you.

  548. More anointing and grace. It's time for us to pray and

  549. call. But I'll come here to lead us

  550. free. Shall we be on our feet, Wassam.

  551. Yeah. Mid.

  552. When the word of God comes, it, it comes to purify, it comes to

  553. correct, it comes to rebuke so that we will enter into life.

  554. This morning I just want you to open your mouth and thank God

  555. for His word that has come this morning.

  556. It is for our own good that the word of God has come.

  557. Lift up your voice. Thank you, Thank you, Shalaga

  558. Messiah. Thank you Jesus for your word.

  559. That is, come to us, this models to purify us, to correct us, to

  560. train us in righteousness. Thank you Jesus, we are

  561. grateful. We are thankful in the name of

  562. Jesus love us. We are grateful for your.

  563. We realize from our discussion that most of us God doesn't

  564. reign in our lives. We come to church, but we have

  565. our own mind and Bible say that if we reject the word of God, if

  566. we reject the ways of God, we are rejecting life.

  567. Some of us we can see that the problems you are encountering is

  568. because of 1 disobedience. We did the problems that are in

  569. our lives is because of disobedience to God.

  570. We want to tell God and lack of faith is what makes us take our

  571. own path. We analyze things and we try to

  572. use our own intelligence. We want to pray to God that, oh

  573. God, reign in my life, reign in my life, take charge of my life.

  574. Open your mouth and pray. Take charge, take charge.

  575. Father reign. Father reign.

  576. Father Reign. Father reign.

  577. Take charge of my life. A heart of obedience law.

  578. A heart of obedience law. A soft heart.

  579. Oh God, A heart that will obey you always.

  580. A heart that will obey you always.

  581. A heart that will obey you always.

  582. A heart that will tell you always.

  583. A heart of faith, O God. A heart that will humble, a

  584. heart that will trust. A heart that will trust you

  585. always. Help me, O God.

  586. Let's come down to do the will of God.

  587. You need grace. It is not easy.

  588. Sometimes when you are faced with temptation head on, you

  589. realize that it is not easy. You need some grace.

  590. You need help from about Hallelujah.

  591. Bible says that God is faithful even in the temptation.

  592. You provide a way. Don't say that you can't.

  593. Don't say that I can't do it. You can't do it.

  594. There is a way, yes. When a grace comes upon you, you

  595. realize that there is a way. Jesus, lift up your voice and

  596. pray that. Oh God, grant me grace.

  597. Oh Jesus, grant me grace. Lift up your voice, Shalabasa,

  598. grant me grace. Grant me grace, ohh, grace,

  599. grace, oh God, to do all your will, to do all your will, to do

  600. all your will to obey all your will.

  601. Grace, Grace, Oh God, grace, grace, Oh God, grace, oh God.

  602. Grace is coming up on you. Grace is coming up on you.

  603. Lift up your voice. In the

  604. name of Jesus, we want to pray for our last but one prayer.

  605. But we say that he said that if we reject God, we come under the

  606. power of the devil. Some of us we have come under

  607. demonic attacks. Jesus because of disobedience,

  608. but tonight if you repent that power that hood is breaking from

  609. your life. Yes, yes, I don't know any

  610. attack that is have come upon your life.

  611. I don't know any difficulty that has come upon your life.

  612. He said that if he if he confess our sins, he's faithful and and

  613. if he if he forgives you, he delivers you from that bondage.

  614. I want you to lift off your hands.

  615. God is a restorer Jesus he said destiny change Jesus.

  616. He's full of mercy and full of Jesus.

  617. Attack on your life. We want to pronounce or base on

  618. the word of we want to stand upon the word and break every

  619. hole of darkness. As you have decided to repent

  620. and as you have decided that God will reign in your life, every

  621. attack, every demonic oppression, every difficulty is

  622. breaking from your life. Listen your voice and pray.

  623. Declare. We break every hold, We break

  624. every hold. We break every difficulty.

  625. We break every difficulty. We claim life because of your

  626. work, because of our hearts, because we have ourselves before

  627. the Lord. We claim freedom.

  628. We claim freedom in the name of Jesus.

  629. We need. We need to.

  630. Our last prayer from the discussion we had that what

  631. bridges, what cuts our relationship with God is sin.

  632. Maybe you are here, you don't feel the connection that you

  633. used to feel with God. Listen, the issue is about

  634. repentance. If you, anybody who humbles

  635. himself under the mighty hand of God, you shall exalt.

  636. Yes, you restore to that joy of salvation.

  637. Jesus, I don't know, maybe you are here.

  638. You have gone far. Today is a day of salvation for

  639. you. Yes, yes, yes, today is a day of

  640. salvation for you. Yes, yes.

  641. If you are, you can kindly come forward and come forward.

  642. If you are here, maybe you feel that your relationship with God,

  643. there's a distance. Jesus, God is here to bring you

  644. back. Jesus purpose is that this is

  645. the heart that I respect. This is the person that I

  646. respect, the one who trembles. The righteous man is not the man

  647. who doesn't fall, it's the man who falls and rises that is the

  648. righteous man. Hallelujah. close your eyes.

  649. Maybe you are here, our last prayer, you are here.

  650. Your relationship with God is far.

  651. Maybe you want to reconnect. Kindly come forward.

  652. Kindly come forward. Die grace so long, don't your

  653. side. It is you and God, don't your

  654. side. Just open your mouth and tell

  655. God that Oh God, connect me, bring me back, Maybe you are

  656. here. Connect me once again.

  657. Give me that joy of salvation once again, robots, open your

  658. mouth in the last one minute. In the last one minute, oh God,

  659. restore unto me salvation. Restore unto me the joy of

  660. communion. Restore unto me the joy of

  661. communion. Restore unto me the joy of

  662. communion. Oh God, let me experience your

  663. presence once again. Let me experience your power

  664. once again, oh Jesus. I AM

  665. coming home. God belong to thee.

  666. Worse, He cleaves me with that blood, that close from God.

  667. Hurry, I am coming, Lord, coming unto thee, to you.

  668. Indeed, this morning you have spoken your word unto us.

  669. Your word says no one comes before you and go the same.

  670. This morning you have touched our lives.

  671. This morning you have remembered us, that we should stay in you

  672. alone, and you bring the glory out of us.

  673. We pray this morning, Father, that even if we have forgotten

  674. ourselves and we have gone astray, this morning as Your

  675. word I've come. Mogul We said when we sin and we

  676. realize we have sinned, all that we have to do is to come unto

  677. you and your words are ye and Amen you will forgive us and

  678. take us back again. This when we have come with our

  679. hearts open unto you, O God, take us back again unto yourself

  680. and use us to fulfill your word in Jesus name we have prayed of

  681. Thanksgiving, Amen. Hallelujah.
