  1. You're listening to a message to go from AX Church.

  2. We hope this message will light up your day.

  3. But if you want them to come, the question is

  4. what are you doing to bring them? Not just them

  5. coming to us, but how can we make your life

  6. where you are better, brighter, bigger that when you finish

  7. the three years, you would have left with a testimony,

  8. not just with the title what do we need? Well,

  9. we already have what we need. Seven things I believe

  10. downloading from the Lord that will help us breakthrough into colleges.

  11. Number one, the question is ask a campus student friendly church?

  12. You answer that question. You don't have to be a

  13. campus student to reach a campus student. You can even

  14. be a senior citizen. But are you friendly to campus

  15. students when they come? Do they feel loved? Accepted? Are

  16. your eyes looking out for them? And this can go.

  17. I mean the same strategy probably can go with all

  18. other age groups. I believe we are. I am confident

  19. we are so. Number one answer that question yourself is

  20. asks a campus student friendly church? I would say yes

  21. and amen, because he says AX. He doesn't say ex

  22. cla or X somebody no, just X we are we are.

  23. Number two, are we ready? For them to come. How

  24. do we make ourselves ready? How do we prepare our people?

  25. How do we, you know, continue to make sure that

  26. X has a heart for the young and right now,

  27. especially the campus students number three? What do we need?

  28. I had a conversation with a Passa Steven's day and

  29. some people would tell him as a campus pastor, but

  30. pass Steven, we don't have this. We don't have that.

  31. We don't have a campus rep. We don't have you.

  32. Some people might even go to Pasadaniel x Kota Compunity

  33. and you see the teens thriving in ax Kota community,

  34. or we don't have you Pasadena in our listen, we

  35. are X and the anointing is upon us all. I

  36. really don't care how old you grow up. You're going

  37. to be a magnet for youth. I declare it again. Okay,

  38. even when you're much older, you're still young at heart.

  39. I really believe, and that's why you're called to AX.

  40. If you weren't young at hart, you probably would despise X.

  41. And people have really despise X so younger and I

  42. will never make apologies. This is my core, it is

  43. my anointing, it's my gifting and we will go for

  44. generations because we have our eyes on the youth. So

  45. as I tell you why, we will never run out

  46. of a job. Wunner, seventy eighty years old. If your

  47. heart is stay for you young, you never run off

  48. a job. You will always be relevant. Amen, what do

  49. we need? Well, we already have what we need. We

  50. love them, we are anointed to reach them. We can

  51. buy food for them, we can take them out for lunch. Hey,

  52. we are already doing it, but maybe we're doing it

  53. with a doubtsla. Well, give them some time, then get

  54. ready for the students come, so that when the students come,

  55. let's take the whole bunch out for lunch, give them

  56. a good meal. We already have warmth, we already have worship,

  57. we already have works, we already have we have all

  58. that we need. Really, seriously, there is nothing extra special.

  59. You do have to slightly change your colors to psychedelic

  60. colors or being and you don't have to because God

  61. never needed you to do that. Amen. God is with us.

  62. And all God needs to say is put the net

  63. on the right side of the board, and you watch

  64. and see. God is the master fisherman. Your net doesn't

  65. have to be special, doesn't have to be made in Japan. Seriously,

  66. it's just hear the voice of the Lord. Cast it

  67. on the right handside. On the left you maybe like

  68. some of us, we cut nothing throughout the night. Hear

  69. his voice? What is it? Lord? Right side? I always

  70. knew you should be the right side. Whow now you

  71. can't even carry them up? Do you believe? Let's believe.

  72. It's by faith, faith creates. We all have it. Really,

  73. let's just turn your neighbor. You have it? Seriously, you

  74. have it. I didn't know that I was going into

  75. Victoria Academy and tea it around. You know. But as

  76. long as you have half for young people, that you will.

  77. Because they are not looking at their pastay having purple

  78. hair before. They believe in me. Right, Oh, that too

  79. is believe I believe in them and they can feel it.

  80. You can feel it. You got to keep believing in

  81. young people. So listen, do you have it? Of course

  82. you have it? Number four, Now let's go deeper. Which

  83. college would you like to take on? Target? Like like

  84. like Jonathan and his alma bearer, Target one college. Now,

  85. don't you say, don't have no? No, no, opportunities so far.

  86. Target one, ask God for one. Amen. I know Pasadenia's

  87. asking for massa. I agree with him. I said, let's go,

  88. let's do it. These young people don't belong to the world.

  89. They belong to the Church. I want to claim them

  90. for the Lord. Come on, be specific. I want to

  91. take this college for the Lord. Number five. For number five,

  92. What is the sign you need? Lord? Give us an inroad. Lord,

  93. give us a person or two, someone who is a bringer. Amen,

  94. give us that sign, and I guarantee you the Lord

  95. will give you a sign. Clear. Now, I don't wait

  96. for twenty people to come right, somebody one or two. Enough.

  97. All they said to Johnathan was like, come up here,

  98. Ella and we'll show you something. That's all we needed.

  99. Is okay? You asked for it. It was a big

  100. grand party, you know, to welcome them. No, just I

  101. want that sign. Give me one, give me two, and Lord,

  102. make them bring us. I'll work with what you give me.

  103. Number six even deeper, now, even more detail. How do

  104. we help bring them? So this morning, as I was

  105. on my knees, the Lord showed me some of you

  106. need to reintroduce again the transport. Help think about it.

  107. Pray about it because we need to go into those

  108. kind of details. Will we send a bus to the

  109. very college we want to win, or maybe it's not

  110. a bus. Maybe there is a system like how our

  111. friend passes Daniel from a life as I be live.

  112. Does he pays for the grab? He says, all you

  113. need to do is fill up the grab tree students

  114. maybe four max, right, because GRAB can do four max.

  115. And all you need to do is pay one ring

  116. git and the church will pray the rest. That I

  117. thought also quite smart because if you have to pay

  118. for a bus, the bus is already five hundred ringgit.

  119. But sometimes the bus can only take about seven people

  120. as he not can take but only seven people got

  121. on the bus on that Sunday, so you waste a

  122. lot of money. But if you take GRAB and they're

  123. supposed to feel it, then they'll invite their friends come.

  124. Feel it is already paid for the grab. We already

  125. have to pay one ring git. It's nothing. And then

  126. when they come are you going to feed them? Give

  127. them some lunch? Because you know how campus students are

  128. usually by the middle of the month already starving. So

  129. this is the you know, we're thought to be fishes

  130. of men, and every fisherman has to have a bait

  131. and a hook. Right, God will give you the wisdom

  132. for that. So I really believe that we cannot just

  133. be praying and cannot just only be hoping and pour me,

  134. But what are you doing about getting them here? It's

  135. not just preaching to me. This is it's almost like

  136. giving you, you know, directions and instructions, and you know

  137. one by one right, line by line, precept by precept.

  138. Of course you can take each one and develop it

  139. even more. Seek the Lord, pray, ask God. But if

  140. you want them to come, the question is what are

  141. you doing to bring them? So I would like some

  142. of you here, maybe even with pass stieves talking about

  143. these kind of strategies the hook and the bait, all right,

  144. and there are systems out there like that grab. Fill

  145. up the grab, we pay for it and we will

  146. send you back. And it's a better thing because if

  147. it's just one bus, the bus has got a certain

  148. times he comes and so that it goes. So some

  149. people can't even have lunch. But if it's GRAB, then

  150. they are free to go back anytime they want. Sib

  151. Live has done this successfully. I think they bring about

  152. maybe fifty to one hundred students just by that. Of course,

  153. students will choose you with if you're helping them get

  154. there because some of this transport, especially if it's far,

  155. it's expensive. Number seven Finally, what else could we do

  156. for them where they are at? What else could we

  157. do for them where they're at? So all the other

  158. points was talking about bringing them to church. Now church

  159. must go to them. Can we help your college, can

  160. we help your friends? Can we do something for you there?

  161. Is it something of a small group there, Because don't

  162. forget that it's not just about them coming to church,

  163. you know, and fill up with seats. We are about

  164. community transformation, we're about blessing the college and the university.

  165. So the last question must always be Okay, not just

  166. them coming to us, but how can we make your

  167. life where you are better, brighter, bigger that when you

  168. finish the three years, you would have left with a testimony,

  169. not just with the title, you would have done something

  170. for your college, something for your university. Please think about that,

  171. pray about that, because I think if you are on

  172. the right path, they will have something to say to

  173. you that you can practically help them with that will

  174. see a legacy being left behind, not just within the

  175. church premises, but out there where the community is. So

  176. all you need to do is pray. God, give me

  177. a champion, give me a Jonathan, give me an Almabara,

  178. and then let's start going by faith. In fact, most

  179. you know, all of these things I just talked about

  180. are requires. When you say you don't have, and yet

  181. you give and faith will create. Don't be satisfied, just satisfying.

  182. We hope you've been blessed by this message. For more
