-
morning I have a wonderful privilege of introducing
-
to some newfound friends from the city of Arasatuba,
-
Brazil. They are great people. They speak Portuguese.
-
How many remember Kellner and Luciani that came
-
and prophesied with us? Well, this is Kellner's
-
pastor who he relates to, Pastor Samuel Sosa.
-
Would you just welcome Pastor Samuel and his
-
son Lucas as they come today? Come on, give them
-
a Life Bible welcome. We welcome you in the name
-
of the Lord. God bless you. It's going to be
-
a great day in the house of the Lord. Good morning.
-
I don't like to speak English, but I speak Portuguese.
-
My English is bad. I'm very happy to be here
-
with you this morning. It's such a pleasure to
-
be here with Pastor Brad and Pastor Jenny. They
-
blessed so much our church in Brazil. And more
-
than we miss him, they left some marks in our
-
church. Our church was marked by the Lord. And
-
I want to thank you that you guys allowed your
-
pastor to be with us. And we are so welcome here.
-
I'm very glad because when my son Lucas lived
-
here in the state of Oregon, he had a family
-
here. And Mark's family is Muckers. And I'm very
-
glad to be here in their city today. Yeah, Lucas,
-
he's been to India with them. Yeah. So I came
-
here once and that was so fun because I got to
-
shoot when I came here. And the first shot I
-
gave, I could break the clay pigeon. It was only
-
for the first one. Because I missed all the other
-
ones. So before I start my message, I just wanted
-
to show you a short video about my church. As
-
portas da casa estão abertas. Você pode entrar
-
e encontrar o seu lugar. Como em uma grande casa
-
em que vive uma grande família. Os netos, os
-
pais, os filhos, os mais velhos, os recém -nascidos,
-
as esposas, os homens, as crianças. Nessa grande
-
casa, os filhos se ligam uns aos outros e se
-
encontram com seu pai. They talk to him and listen
-
to him. And when the doors of the house are open,
-
what is inside comes out and invades the world.
-
And the house expands, multiplies and influences.
-
The doors of the house are open, open to those
-
who want to be received. Open to those who want
-
to be taught and empowered. Open to those who
-
want to be transformed. Open to those who want
-
to be sent. The doors of the house are open because
-
the Father is with open arms. And throughout
-
this land, the doors of many irrelevant houses
-
are open. leading those who pass through them
-
to a kingdom of life in abundance. Through the
-
Gospel, Brazil has been visited, blessed and
-
has known the purpose that is reserved for it
-
in the heavens. To see the Kingdom of Christ
-
Jesus expanding inside and outside its borders.
-
I'd like for a moment that you guys help me praying
-
about our country. Next Sunday we have our elections.
-
And Brazil as a country is going through such
-
a special moment. Actually there is a battle
-
between light and darkness. And Brazil has a
-
promise from God. And that will send missionaries
-
to all the nations. And we believe that we will
-
not lack any resources. But there is a battle
-
this moment. We had a candidate that he's...
-
He's actually following the word of God. He's
-
fighting for the values of the presence of God
-
being introduced to our nation, being put into
-
our nation. Because in Brazil, in schools, children
-
of four years old have been taught by teachers
-
who have an ideology. some thoughts, some thinking.
-
And teachers are saying to children, for your
-
old children, you don't need to be a boy. You
-
don't need to be a girl. If you are a boy, you
-
can use skirt, you can paint your nails. If you
-
are a girl, you can have all the boy stuff. And
-
this is four -year -old children. They are having
-
material for school. Books are being used by
-
teachers. They are trying to teach these children.
-
They are raising up a generation against the
-
values of the word of God. But we believe that
-
this spirit is going to fall. There's another
-
thing that is destroying our country right now,
-
it's corruption. Just so you know, last week
-
here in the United States, one of the Brazilian
-
companies made an agreement, a law agreement.
-
And they are going to give back $4 .2 billion.
-
And the United States government required $3
-
.2 billion to the Brazilian government. This
-
money is out of corruption. It's only one company.
-
And we believe that's going to fall too. And
-
God is raising up a man that he's following the
-
values of God. A man that he's fighting for the
-
family. A man that is saying that he doesn't
-
want all these things because there is something
-
behind these things. That school needs to teach
-
us. school things and the family needs to teach
-
values. Parents need to teach their kids. This
-
man, he was raising up and then three weeks ago
-
he got stabbed. And he almost died. And he's
-
fighting for his life. And at this moment we
-
have two people. One that defends all this corruption.
-
And another one that is defending the values
-
of the word of God. And the church of the Lord
-
is raising up in our country. And we are saying
-
that immorality, violence and corruption is falling
-
in our nation. And I would like you guys to pray
-
with us. Just blessing our nation now. Because
-
next Sunday is going to be a crucial moment for
-
us. And we believe that God is going to bless
-
Brazil. At this very moment, I just got some
-
pictures. from our city more than 10 ,000 cars
-
they are on streets that Christian people they
-
are praying so this spirit can fall and I would
-
like you guys to pray with us now could you stand
-
up please could you guys pray for Brazil now
-
Heavenly Father, we come before you now. And
-
Lord, you set people in office. It is you that
-
lifts up. It is you that puts down. And Lord,
-
we're asking tonight, this afternoon, Lord, it's
-
four hours ahead in Brazil. This late afternoon,
-
we're saying, we're agreeing with the nation
-
and the prayers that are being lifted up from
-
every church, from every corner of that city.
-
Let the righteousness of God prevail in Jesus'
-
name. Let the right... of the king of heaven
-
begin to sweep out that which is deceptive, that
-
which is bathed in destruction and perversion.
-
Lord, we come against, Lord, every assignment
-
that would try to mark a younger generation.
-
And we say in Jesus' name, put down, Lord, the
-
enemy and raise up the king of kings. Put the
-
godly men and women in office. Word says, when
-
the righteous flourishes, the city flourishes.
-
And Lord, we're praying for the nation to flourish
-
under the banner of the Lord Jesus Christ and
-
his kingdom. In Jesus' name, and everybody said,
-
amen. Thank you. Keep us in prayer, please. I'd
-
like to show you my family. So we have our three
-
grandchildren. Miguel is in my lap. And there's
-
Eliseu and Raquel. That's my oldest daughter,
-
Larissa. That is beside my wife. Behind is Leticia,
-
my middle children. And that's Lucas. And these
-
are our three children. And we have a daughter
-
-in -law, a wonderful daughter -in -law. Livia.
-
Livia. And I also need to show you two sons -in
-
-law. If you have children, you know that. I
-
pretend I like them. My problem is not the mother
-
-in -law. It's two sons -in -law. No, I'm just
-
kidding. There are pastors in our church. And
-
they're a man of God. I'd like you to open your
-
Bible in Hebrews chapter 6. We're going to start
Hebrews 6 chapter mention
-
from verse 9. So Hebrews 6, starting on verse
-
9. Yes, I'm using NIV. So even though we speak
-
like this, dear friends, we are convinced of
-
better things in your case. The things that have
-
to do with salvation. God is not unjust. He will
-
not forget your work and the love you have shown
-
him as you have helped his people and continue
-
to help them. We want each of you to show the
-
same diligence to the very end, so that what
-
you hope for may be fully realized. We do not
-
want to become lazy, but to imitate those who
-
through faith and patience inherit what has been
-
promised. When God made his promise to Abraham,
-
since there was no one greater for him to swear
-
by, he swore by himself, saying, I will surely
-
bless you and give you many descendants. And
-
so after waiting patiently, Abraham received
-
what was promised. People swear by someone greater
-
than themselves, and the oath confirms what is
-
said and puts an end to all argument. So we're
-
going to read through 20. 17. Because God wanted
-
to make the unchanging nature of his purpose
-
very clear to the heirs of what was promised,
-
he confirmed it with an oath. God did this so
-
that by two unchangeable things in which it is
-
promised for God to lie, impossible for God to
-
lie, he would have fled to take hold of the hope
-
set before us may be greatly encouraged. We have
-
this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and
-
secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind
-
the curtain where our forerunner Jesus has entered
-
on our behalf. He has become a high priest forever
-
in the order of Melchizedek. I'd like to speak
-
this morning about three simple things. But I'd
-
like to say that faith and patience, they walk
-
side by side. We need to understand that sometimes
-
we have no patience to wait on God. Do you know
-
someone that's very angry all the time? The person
-
has no patience at all? Do you know someone like
-
that? That when this person prays, you say, God,
-
you need to do this right now because I have
-
no patience to wait. This person wants everything
-
for yesterday. Do you know someone like that?
-
In Brazil, there's a lot of people like that.
-
People they have no patience to wait. They just
-
want everything so fast. But here the word of
-
God says in verse 15. And so. After waiting patiently.
-
Abraham received what was promised. Could we
-
read all together? Could you put the verse? It's
-
Hebrews 6, 15. So we can read all together? Or
-
you can repeat after me. Yeah. And so, after
-
waiting patiently, Abraham received what was
-
promised. Now instead of saying Abraham, you're
-
going to say your name. So let's do it together.
-
And so, after waiting patiently, received what
-
was promised. I'd like to start with a question.
-
Who here when you were a child you said I swear
-
by God. Children in Brazil they say that. Here
-
I don't know if you guys say I swear by God or
-
I just I swear I don't know. But Children in
-
Brazil, they say, I swear by God. And they say
-
like that when they want to actually affirm what
-
they're saying. Like, Mom, I'm saying it is true.
-
I swear by God it's true. So they want to say
-
that this is what they did. And here in verse
-
16. He says a man swear by someone that is above
-
themselves. Because the oath confirms what is
-
said. To put an end to all argument. So when
-
someone says I swear by God. They didn't want
-
to talk anymore. They say, I'm saying the truth.
-
But now imagine God looking to Abraham and saying,
-
Abraham, I'm going to bless you. I'm going to
-
bless your family. I'm going to give you a blessed
-
offspring. And these are the promises of God
-
to us. But look with me what the verse 13 says.
-
That God's... Yeah, God, there was no one greater
-
for him to swear by. He swore by himself. So
-
God looked to Abraham and he said, I swear by
-
God. that I'm going to bless you I swear by God
-
that I'm going to bless your family I swear by
-
God that I'm going to bless your offspring and
-
I think about this God So great, so wonderful.
-
With so great mercy. That he gave his son to
-
us. That he didn't need to swear. He is God.
-
But because he loves men, he cares about men.
-
He looks to a man and says. I swear by myself.
-
That I'm going to bless your life. bless your
-
family that I'm going to give you a descendant
-
I'm going to be with you I'm going to be with
-
you every day and you're going to taste my favor
-
because Abraham was in the beginning of his relationship
-
with God and I believe that this is our victory
-
as a church We are not based. In a human doctrine.
-
In a philosophy of a guru. But we are under.
-
We are formed. In the word of God. Of a God.
-
That he never fails. He has character. He loves
-
man. He gave his son to man. He is the same yesterday,
-
today and forever. So I'd like to bring to you
-
guys three principles. Because I believe God
-
has promises to your life. And God has promises
-
to this house. God has wonderful things to do
-
among you guys. And while we were praying. I
-
saw the atmosphere of the Holy Spirit here in
-
this place. convince Pastor Brad and Pastor Jenny
-
that people from a lot of places, people from
-
other nations, they will come to Harrisburg to
-
see what God is doing among you guys. God is
-
raising up a church, a strong church in this
-
place. God is raising up a people that they are
-
referenced. I'm going to repeat. that God is
-
raising up a people they are a reference to the
-
others don't look to the size of the city don't
-
look to yourself look to God that is on this
-
church and he's saying I swear by myself that
-
I'm going to do of this church a great house
-
a light that is going to shine from this place
-
it's going to reach so many regions of this nation
-
and people will come to this place to see the
-
light that is shining in this place I have promises
-
upon this house says the Lord but this same God
-
he has promises to your life this morning who
-
believe that he has promises to your life this
-
morning who here has promises they are not fulfilled
-
yet That's why faith and patience. They walk
-
side by side. That's what this text says. And
-
the first thing I want to say to you. The first
-
principle. It's that God is unchangeable. God
-
is unchangeable. Repeat after me. God is unchangeable.
-
Men changes. As pessoas mudam. People change.
-
Mas Deus não muda. But God is unchangeable. Você
-
conhece alguém que mudou? Depois que ficou rico?
-
Do you know someone that changed after they became
-
rich? Depois que ficou pobre? After they became
-
poor? Depois que virou chefe? After they became
-
a boss? After he had an office in church. Became
-
a leader. And put in the linear leader. Man changes.
-
Depending on the circumstances. But the biggest
-
problem. Is that we think that we deal with a
-
God like this. That he reacts like man reacts.
-
that he thinks like man thinks that he changes
-
like man changes but if it were like this we
-
were lost how many people you know they became
-
cold in their faith they leave the house of God
-
they just leave the office they have in church.
-
And when you ask them, what is happening? They
-
say, oh, God is not the same with me anymore.
-
He thinks that he changes. So many people look
-
to God and think he changes like we change. When
-
they don't see that things they're expecting
-
for are not happening, In their minds, they became
-
to not be satisfied. And the thoughts come thinking
-
that God has changed. And the heart becomes to
-
grow cold. And the first conviction I want to
-
bring to your heart this morning is that God
-
is unchangeable. Malachi 3, 6. He says, I am
-
God. night don't change. It is true. Society
-
changes. Everything is changing so fast this
-
time. Times are different now. People are not,
-
they are not, they don't hold strong to anything
-
anymore. But the Bible says it can come the time
-
and the and it can come time and then And God
-
says that everything can pass. But my word do
-
not pass. Just change the verse here. I'm sure
-
about something this morning. God has not changed
-
with you. Even though you can't see a promise
-
happening in your life right now. God is still
-
the same. He doesn't change because you're struggling
-
with something. He doesn't even change when you
-
sin. Is this still a loving God, a merciful God,
-
and a faithful God? He's a God that loves you
-
and He calls you a son. He doesn't change when
-
we change. 2 Timothy 2, verse 13 says, even though
-
we are not faithful he remains faithful because
-
he cannot deny himself and his promises they
-
are not void about us and that's why you cannot
-
accept lies in our mind because man is man and
-
God is God man changes But God doesn't change.
-
We are under some promises. These promises will
-
never change. So first principle is God doesn't
-
change. God is unchangeable. Second principle,
-
God doesn't lie. It seems obvious. But it's something
-
true that we need to bring to ourselves. God
-
doesn't change. God doesn't lie. Can you repeat
-
after me? God doesn't change. God doesn't lie.
-
Verse 16, Hebrews chapter 6. Verse 18 of Hebrews
Hebrews 6 chapter mention
-
6. It says, God did this so that by two unchangeable
-
things, that he doesn't change, that he doesn't
-
lie. The text says it is impossible for God to
-
lie. Two things are unchangeable. What he said
-
is going to come forth. The word that comes out
-
of his mouth doesn't come back empty. And that's
-
why I believe that God has promises to this house.
-
That doesn't matter what happens. These things
-
are going to happen, come to pass. God has promises
-
to your life. And since he doesn't lie. And since
-
he doesn't change. I'm sure. These things are
-
come to pass. John 4, verse 6, he says, I am
-
the way, I am the truth, and I am the life. James
-
1, verse 17, says that in him, there is no doubt,
-
and things doesn't change we are secure John
-
8 32 so you will know the truth and the truth
-
will set you free God doesn't change and God
-
doesn't lie this is the spiritual truth for the
-
church a church that doesn't live by appearance
-
they don't live by Being deceived. They don't
-
live pretending things. But they live by a true
-
relationship. With that one that searches the
-
heart. A people that know. That if they go to
-
the highest heaven. God's gonna be there. But
-
if they go to the deepest place. God's gonna
-
be there too. A people that know that God knows
-
our substance. Before even we were formed. That's
-
what Psalms 139 says. And that's why you need
-
to be true in our relationship with our God.
-
When you come before him sincerely. And I said,
-
God, I need to be set free. I need a change.
-
I just want to get rid of this addiction. This
-
attitude. This resistance. This sin. He will
-
always come to your favor. Because he is the
-
God of the truth. And he loves the truth and
-
sincerity of your heart. I was seeing my daughter
-
-in -law here. And her uncle was someone that
-
was. You know that person that gives you a lot.
-
For so long, he didn't change at all. He was
-
resisting everything. And I remember that someday
-
he told, I'm not smoking anymore. And then I
-
was driving by and then I saw him in his car.
-
And he was smoking. And I was getting close to
-
him. And since he didn't want to show me that
-
he was smoking, he threw the cigarette. And then
-
he tried to put it out. But the smoke came. And
-
it was in the car, the floor in the car. And
-
I said, you can just put it out because I saw
-
you smoking. But someday this man had an encounter
-
with God. And that moment he opened his heart.
-
And he said, God, I've been resisting your word.
-
I have been not being sincere. I've been lying
-
to my wife, to my church. But I need your mercy.
-
Change my heart. And in that moment, a man that
-
used to smoke four packs a day, he was an alcoholic.
-
from like out of a sudden he was completely changed
-
and today he's actually a great leader in our
-
church because God loves the truth God doesn't
-
change God doesn't lie but the third principle
-
is I have an anchor it's a conviction in my heart
-
Verse 18, Hebrews chapter 6. So that by two unchangeable
Hebrews 6 chapter mention
-
things in which it is impossible for God to lie
-
we who have fled to take hold of the hope offered
-
to us may be greatly encouraged. Yeah, so To
-
take hold of the hope offered to us. Verse 19.
-
We have this hope as an anchor to the soul. Firm
-
and secure. It enters in the sanctuary. Behind
-
the curtains. An anchor that is in the hole of
-
holiness. An anchor that is in the presence of
-
God. In our church, in our city, in the region
-
over there, there's a lot of fishermen, and then
-
I know Mark likes to fish a lot. And who goes
-
fishing a lot knows that if the water is still,
-
if there is no streams, if everything is still,
-
you don't need an anchor. The anchor is necessary.
-
That the boat doesn't move away. So that the
-
stream doesn't take the boat away. And I keep
-
thinking. How many people they are in church.
-
But in their minds. They are struggling. They
-
are questioning. They are unstable. They are
-
living a lot of circumstances. Because they have
-
no anchor in their mind. Because they do not
-
trust completely in the promises of God. Because
-
they have no patience to wait in what God's doing.
-
And now I keep thinking about Abraham. God looked
-
at him in Genesis 14. And said Abraham I swear
-
I'm going to bless you. I swear I'm going to
-
bless your family. I swear I'm going to do your
-
family a blessed family. Your children will be
-
blessed. But for your son to be born. 24 years
-
passed. 24 years in a mind that is anchored in
-
one word. 24 years waiting for something that
-
he could not see. Imagine a man at 75. 75 years
-
old. 80 years old. 85 years old. Having lunch
-
with the family. Gathered for Christmas. Hey,
-
Abraham. What are you waiting for? A son. And
-
people. This old man is just crazy. He needs
-
some pills. 90 years old. And family, what up,
-
Abraham? I'm waiting, I'm waiting. Waiting for
-
what? A son? And then Sarah looks at him. I know
-
this old man. He sleeps like an angel. It's impossible.
-
But Abraham. He had his anchor. In the promise.
-
God doesn't lie. God doesn't change. And they
-
know that God has promises to people here. A
-
lot of times you were looking. You were saying,
-
God, I cannot see that happening. So many times
-
things start to happen. And the enemy looks to
-
you and says, where is your promise? Look to
-
your marriage. Look to your children. Look the
-
problems you are facing right now. This time,
-
you have to raise up your anchor and say, enemy,
-
I have an anchor. Me and my house, we will serve
-
the Lord. Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and
-
you and your house are going to be saved. So
-
many times the enemy says, look to your health.
-
Look to the illness you're facing right now.
-
Look the size of the giants over you right now.
-
And you raise up your voice and say, I have an
-
anchor. The Lord is the one that heals all the
-
sickness. I believe in him. I trust in his promises.
-
And he's going to bless me. Brazil as a country
-
is going through such difficulties. And the enemy
-
is raising up his voice. And the enemy is saying,
-
look to your finances. You cannot bear this moment.
-
You're going to go bankrupt. But there's a voice
-
coming from the church. We have an anchor. Our
-
God. Because his richness and glory. He will.
-
To provide. Every single one of your needs. In
-
Christ the Lord. When I say. That God doesn't
-
lie. That God doesn't change. I go through the
-
veil. I go to the place of his presence. I stay
-
in the place of the presence of God. And nothing
-
can take me out of there. No streams. No water
-
that comes against. Even though they try to take
-
out my boat. My boat will remain anchored. Still.
-
Firmed. In the promises. Of a God that doesn't
-
change. Of a God that doesn't lie. Of a God that
-
has promises to my life. Of a God that swore
-
by himself. And he said I'm going to bless you.
-
I'm going to bless your family. I'm going to
-
bless your house. I'm going to bless your emotions
-
and nothing is going to take me out of this place
-
of the presence of God I'd like you to raise
-
up your hand because the word of God is this
-
this morning and so after waiting patiently Kristen
-
had what she was waiting for. All the promises.
-
And so. After waiting patiently. Tanya. Reached
-
what was promised. God has promises. To your
-
life. To your life. To your life. To your life.
-
God has promises to every single one of you here.
-
And because I know these promises are for my
-
life and to your life. Galatians 3. Says that
-
God broke all the curses. He broke all the curses
-
when he gave his life for us on the cross. But
-
they say more. Galatians says more. That he has
-
done all this so the blessings of Abraham would
-
reach us. Do you know what that means? That the
-
same God that says I swear by God That I'm going
-
to bless you. I swear by God Abraham I'm going
-
to bless your family. I swear by God Abraham
-
I'm going to bless your children. It's the same
-
God that doesn't change. It's the same God that
-
doesn't lie. And he's the God that says to you
-
this morning. My promises to your life. They're
-
going to come to pass. But it's not easy to have
-
patience. You can just put your hand down. I
-
just want to finish telling you about a testimony
-
from our church. We have a couple, they are so
-
precious. They are leaders in our church. And
-
they had a daughter. And then she got pregnant
-
again. And they were very happy. And one day
-
they were just to do the routine exams. And then
-
the doctor said, these children This child has
-
the brain, it's all water, no brain. It's hydrocephalitis,
-
yeah. Thank you. And the doctor said, since the
-
diagnosis was so early, this child is not going
-
to make it through. Because the brain is so taken
-
by all the liquids. It is like this child has
-
no brain. And they said to the parents. Don't
-
even suffer. Because he's not feeling anything.
-
The child is not going to make it. And they went
-
to church. They present the cause. We prayed
-
for them. And then we asked for them to go and
-
do all the exams again. But every time they went
-
there the doctor said the same thing. One of
-
the last things the doctor said What do you want
-
me to do? I think you don't understand that this
-
brain is not going to develop. When you come
-
to me, you think that something has changed?
-
That it's going to be normal? And then one week
-
before. One week before the baby was born. They
-
made a tomography. Is that a word? No? Yeah?
-
And I want to show the first picture. And if
-
you can see there. All the dark part over there.
-
It's liquid. The child actually didn't have a
-
brain. And in that moment, the doctor asked the
-
mom, how old is your daughter? And she said,
-
three years old. And he said, oh, that's a good
-
thing. Because she's not even going to remember
-
this moment of pain. And I just want to say to
-
you guys one thing. Just look for all the...
-
How are you going to bury your children, your
-
child? Because in Brazil it's very, very expensive.
-
So you guys don't be under an emotional moment.
-
Just go and provide everything for his funeral.
-
And that moment the wife said, Doctor, you are
-
not right. My daughter. She will play with her
-
brother. And the doctor left. She left that place.
-
And she went to buy like the. So the baby would
-
come out of the hospital. And at that moment
-
they came to us. And they said to us. Pastor
-
we have promises of God upon our life. We believe
-
in God. But we don't serve God because of what
-
he does. But we serve him because of what he
-
is. And I told them, since you guys are going
-
through such a hard moment, if you want to step
-
down a little bit for your leadership, it's okay,
-
we understand that. And then you can come back.
-
And they said no. We don't want to abandon anything
-
in the house of God. God has done so much in
-
our lives. We believe we know what he can do.
-
But if he doesn't do anything. We still going
-
to keep serving God. With the same passion. With
-
the same involvement. We have a project every
-
year. Then we go to the poorest region in Brazil.
-
It's the northeast of Brazil. Yeah, and Lucas
-
leads all this work. Where you go and we dig
-
a well in places that are very, very dry. And
-
we sent trucks of toys and clothes and food.
-
And the toys are like really good. Because we
-
asked the church to give the same toys they would
-
give to their children to give to the people
-
there. And they're like new toys. And we are
-
going through that season. The best things. Clothes,
-
toys and everything. Was made by that woman.
-
For that couple. And for their small group. And
-
they kept believing. And this was one week before
-
the baby was born. And the doctor said. If he
-
is born. He will be born dead. And then the moment
-
came. Nine months waiting for it. And he was
-
born. He had nothing. But suddenly the doctor
-
said, no, the daughter, the sister is not going
-
to see him. But next picture. And to this child.
-
I wanted to show you what they did after the
-
exams. Next picture, please. So that was the
-
brain before. One week before. And this is after.
-
God formed. What didn't exist. But there's a
-
dark part over there in the middle. The doctor
-
said, he was born. But he's not going to talk.
-
He's not going to walk. Or he's going to have
-
a mental problem. And there's after a while.
-
Next picture. You can keep passing. Yay. That's
-
it. The next one. This is the last one. Oh, and
-
that's him. That he is singing. In Portuguese.
-
I am a miracle of God. A child that he was not
-
going to speak. He was not going to walk. That
-
he would not function well. God restored everything.
-
Completely. Because and so. After waiting patiently.
-
The couple over there. They reached the promise.
-
God doesn't change. God doesn't lie. You have
-
an anchor. But what God made this couple stay
-
firm. Wasn't the words from the doctor. It wasn't
-
the circumstances. It wasn't the problems. Actually
-
all these circumstances. They would make this
-
couple. they would take this couple out of the
-
presence of God but this couple they had an anchor
-
we believe in a God that he has promises upon
-
our house and the same God is here today and
-
maybe you are waiting for something maybe something
-
didn't happen and just I just want to encourage
-
your heart this morning to raise your hands and
-
go through the veil because this is how we fight
-
our battles This is how we fight these days.
-
Believing in a God that doesn't change. Believing
-
