Unpacking the Vision of Acts Church Part 2 | Pr Kenneth

You're listening to a message to go from acts Church.

We hope this message will light up your tea.

Let's recap. Why do we even need to recap a

perfect message last week because we forget Okay, now mine,

let's recap. We unpacked to understand, and we understand to undertake.

That's good, the reminder of the big vision.

Okay. Two scriptures that I hope ex Church will take

to heart and memory. Number one Hababook two fourteen says,

and the earth will be filled with the knowledge of

the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.

All right, you know that the Lord wants the earth

to be filled with the knowledge of the glory of

the Lord as the waters cover the sea. Now, the

second scripture is also important, and here in Genesis one

twenty eight. Actually we should start with Genesis one twenty six.

So if you're taking your notes, say you know, suth

with Genesis one twenty six because twenty six will give

us a little bit more context.

But never mind, twenty.

Eight is good. It says that the Lord God bless

the people all right, and said to them, well he

blessed Adam and Eve, and say to them be Number

one be fruitful, and number two, fill the earth and

subdue it.

Number three have dominion.

Now, ladies and gentlemen, brothers and sisters, I want to

remind you that God doesn't change his mind. He's the

same yesterday, today and forever, and what he said in

Genesis still applies to us today. In fact, I find

myself going back a lot to Genesis to find how

to live today. That's also revival. Revival means again going back.

So when I look at this in fact that they rose,

I might want to show you again, not again, I

haven't showed it to you. But I drew a star,

and on the five points of the star I had fruitful.

Then the second point of the star is multiply, and

then feel the earth is the third point of star,

and then subdue it is the fourth point of the star,

and then the fifth last point of the star is

have dominion. And the reason why I did that was

because I felt let by the Holy Spirit.

I drew it during my quiet time. I find that

talking to you.

But I say, everybody else is taking notes by It's

okay because actually I'm talking to them as well. It's

like a star. It's like a star meaning to say that,

you know, it's something that shines, and there are five

things that God is looking for. I might create a

message of that. No, I might create a message of

that or maybe five messages of that.

This actually encapsulates our lives.

This is actually how God wants us to live so

that we can be successful. Okay, so be fruitful number one. Uh,

this is really our lives. Call our lives privilege. Actually

to be fruitful. And I'm not talking about babies. I'm

talking about just your life being fruitful, meaning that you

are living out God's word and seeing results. All right.

That's the beautiful thing about Bible teaching and church on

Sunday where someone preaches the word. Actually, what we're trying

to do is this is the truth. Try it. That's

really what we're trying to say. This is the truth.

Try it because in the world we might not beginning

the truth. Make beginning all kinds of opinions, all kinds

of thoughts, all kinds of reasons and experiences. But this

is the word of God. Is the word of God

who created us and knows how we take.

We might not even know how we work, no, but

the Maker knows.

Like for example, if I don't know to do with

my iPhone or my phone, whatever phone you have, you

asked the maker, and the maker will say the way

I made it was this, this, this, this, this. Do

you know? One day I was holding my iphoner and

this was the older iPhone I had, and I said

with the iPhone specialist next to me, and he says, passacau,

do you know all that your phone can do? And

I tell you what I only knew how to send

messages and get messages and take photo us. He says,

there's about a thousand more things you can do with

this phone, and only the maker nose, and then he

teaches more. I didn't I go a, oh wow, I

didn't know it does this. Oh wow, I didn't know

it does that. Oh wow, oh wow, oh wow, oh wow.

The maker nose And how many of us are will

live and die only living ten percent of our potential.

So if you connect with the maker, he will tell

us there's so much more, so much more. Infact, someone

said before, I think this is true. How many percent

of our brains are we using her ten, fifteen, twenty

the most? What's what's happening with the other eighteen percent?

So you know, there's potential. Somebody say potential. Yeah, there's

potential in this room. Somebody say, amen, every one of

you and I we are potential in the hands of

the living God who loves us, made us and knows

our potential and wants to use us for his glory.

And I tell you what, we will be so much

happier when we find out what his plan and purposes

are for us.

So be fruitful. We just want to try out what God.

Says and see wow, wow wow. I didn't know I

could do this. I didn't know I could think like this,

live like this, speak like I didn't know I could

speak into things to happen. I didn't know that life

and death are found in the power of my tongue.

I didn't know. But when you are fruitful, you don't

remain just fruitful. You multiply. Now, multiplication is only for

those who are fruitful. The reason why Starbucks can be

Starbucks and be around the world is because the first

Starbucks was fruitful.

If the first Starbucks fail.

There will be no second, third, fourth, You want to say,

the only reason why McDonald's can be multiplying the way

is multiplying because the first one they try out everything.

They tried everything, and they failed probably and then they succeeded,

and they fail again and succeeded, and then they realized, Wow,

I can actually multiply these success and I can go

on with other stuff. You know, yeah, apple, or whatever

it is that you have. I want to also add

the name ex Church in this. Okay, we had to

start first, and the first ex Church had to be fruitful.

We had to test out what God said and saw

the results, saw change lives, saw miracles, and then we say,

how good it is if we can multiply this, so

many more people can experience what we are experiencing. That's

the real power of multiplication. All right. Some people are

very fruitful but don't want to multiply, and after a

while we ourselves will die. I would you know I

should say this to you at the end, but I'll

say to you right now and maybe even say it

again at the end. Is that, you know, what I

think would be failure in my life is that when

I come to the end of my life, I find

out that I'm the only one that can do this.

Today It's not like that, because obviously I'm not the

only one that can do this. We have sixty churches

around the world now eleven nations. I can't be everywhere.

In fact, we have about sixteen worship services that happens

in Kre itself. I'm not everywhere. I can't be, but

praise God that we have we have.

In fact, I was going to give you the stats

at the end. Maybe I'll give it to you now.

Some of you know that I'm doing my doctorate and

I was interviewed recently by doctor Lazarus. He let me

show you one of the stats. Okay, ready, nineteen ninety five,

there was only one speaker, me, There was only one

musician me, although I only had three courts. There was

only one church, the one in Subang. There was basically

one leader at the most two if you count my wife.

There was one homes. There was one country. Let me

give you twenty twenty five, twenty twenty five. There are

ninety speakers. Ninety speakers, twenty seven just in care Rose,

one of them elder Mabel, of them musicians, two hundred

and fifty two leaders, four hundred and thirty five homes,

one hundred and ninety five countries, eleven. You know, there

was a multi billionaire who was giving his testimony some

years ago. I attended. I know the billionaire, he's a

nice man. And then he was there sharing how God

is blessed and blessed and blessed him. He was poor

and he became a billionaire. But because that meeting a

lot of non Christians were invited, and there was a

non Christian next to me, we became friends over the

conversation at the table, and so I think he was

he felt he felt at liberty to whisper to me.

He says, you know, I don't really care what he's

saying what the billionaire on the stage is say say,

I don't really care what he's saying. No, unless he

can make me rich too. And I laughed and I

thought about it. Now, why does someone want to hear

why you are rich? I think the joy would be

to make someone else rich, and to make someone else

make someone else rich. That's why success without succession is

not success. We need to understand that this is God's plan.

Be fruitful, yes, be a billionaire, but multiply make others.

You see, then and only then I tell you the truth,

we will be satisfied. That's why a lot of rich

people going to the graver not really happy because they

have all their money in their pillow. You know what

if I say, only for themselves, But learn to give,

learn to sow, learn to be generous, learn to multiply.

I tell you what, you will be the happiest person

on the face of the earth. Don't just be the

only speaker, create ninety more speakers. Don't just be the

only musician, create two hundred and fifty two morning musicians.

You with me. This is life. This is the purpose

that God made us. Be rich. But make others rich,

be strong, make others strong, be healthy, make others healthy,

be happy, make others happy with me. Be smart, make

others smart. Let it keep going. That will be your legacy,

so that when you die, you don't die alone. You die,

but you leave yourself in so many others generations to come.

We thank you.

That is what God wants. That's why a star. You

want to be a star.

These five points, fruitful, multiply and then now feel the earth.

Feel the earth. Right. When you multiply, you feel the earth,

and you subdue. Now I know these are not in

your notes, so you probably have to write it down

at the side. He said, Okay, now, what does sub

do you mean, feel the earth I'm sure you know

God loves the earth full.

If you haven't discovered that, our God loves full, houser.

To read the word of God, and you realize that

when he had a big banquetter there were so few people.

He said, how comes soople? A few people? All those

we invited don't want to come. Then he said, to

the servants, go to the highways and byways, compel them

to come, so that my house might be full. God

loves a full house. He does. Actually a ten thirty.

You look quite full of you know, praise God. Come on,

let's give God a big clip offering for bringing so

many people to the ten thirty. And at eight am

it was quite full of so but of course added

fifteen from ex Braak fields. But you know they got

room to grow, got room to grow. And so I

just want to yeah, tell you that the words subdal

although you know, feel the earth subdue. You want to

write this down in the Hebrew is kavash ka v

a s h kavash kabash kabash. And so this God's will,

His will is that you be fruitful, you multiply. You

feel the earth feel your home, fill your company, feel

your school. Okay, and subdue it now subdue kavash. Kavas

means a few things that it means to bring under

bondage is to uh is, to bring under, is to

bring under subjection. But another word I want to introduce

to you is kavas or subdue means to align.

God wants us.

Not only to be fruitful, not only to multiply, but

to feel the earth in a way that you can

cause it to align. So, if you are a person

in your family, you're dad, you're the father. Uh. God

wants you to your feel your home, but he wants

to make sure you kavash. You subdue your own you

make sure that your children, your family. And if you're

a boss in your company, you want to kavas shit

meaning you want to bring it to subjection or another

better word is alignment with the word alignment with the will.

All right, So imagine a world where everybody is subdued

or aligned to God's word. What a world it would be. Yes,

Imagine a family that's aligned to the word. Imagine a company,

imagine a church. That's why we're doing this for six weeks.

We want to kavash. We want to subdue. Okay, So

now so that's our job. He started with one right, fruitful, multiply,

and now this room feels. But the next thing is

the God is not just into numbers. He's into subdue.

He's into aligned. And then finally have dominion. And the

word dominion is really the word authority. So you want

to write dead. Now you got two a's. Now two a's,

and I will revisit these two a's again and again

before we finish. Align and authority, Align and authority. All right,

this is our final purpose on this earth. Yes, be fruitful, Yes, multiply, Yes,

feel the earth, but make sure it's aligned to God.

And when there's alignment, there will be authority.

And authority is very This is not authority whereby hey

go pick up my shoes, Hey please polish my shoes,

Hey go take.

The rubbish out.

Now. Authority when Jesus came, they said he was like

a man with authority means that when you speak, things happen.

It means that when you pray for the sick, the

secret hill, when you declare something into a family, declare

something into a company, declare into your viside application, and

declare into your loan application. I'm telling you it carries authority.

When you speak to the government, it carries authority. God

wants all his people to have dominion authority. That's why

before Jesus sent out his disciples, he says, all authority

has been given And to me, if Jesus didn't think

authority was important, he would say that. And after the authority,

then he says, now go because without the authority, we

will not make a difference in this world. So the

next time you go back into your school, your university,

your office place, your home, your neighborhood, understand that God

wants you to be fruitful, to multiply, feel the feel

that compound, feel that neighborhood, feel that office feel.

But the thought is to subdue, to.

Subdue, meaning to cause the people within that group to align,

and then you will find that authority will flow. This

is really at the end of the day, for the

bet the fit of the people. Really I asked you

with me, Okay, now let me give you another thought,

align authority. Okay, give you the two words that make

up discipleship. Are you ready follow me? Yes, yes, Jesus says.

Follow me.

What did Paul say, imitate me as I imitate Christ. Okay,

let let me give you a visual. What is the

word follow, align, aligne what's the word mean authority? Align authority?

When Paul says imitate me, what is he saying align

with me? All right? Align under my authority as I

align with Christ and come under his authority. Do you

see that this is really really key for you to understand.

I want you to really catch the heart of what

God since Genesis had the idea for human beings to

live their lives that at the end of the day

that you yes, you know, you've got to be people

of authority so that wherever you go, things happen right

atmosphere can change, lives can be transformed. I tell you

what you want to be men and women of authority.

God has been teaching me this again and again since Kenneth.

When you are leading exchers, you must have authority. Authority

is very important so that when you're speaking like this,

you're not just giving another sermon. That's why the difference

between the Pharisees and Jesus and the people said he

spoke as a man having authority, not like the Pharisees

or the seducees. Not like the other religious teachers. They

just spoke, and they were teaching for years without authority.

Jesus is wanting to bring authority back to our lives.

You know, a thousand words, nothing happens but two words

out of a man of authority. Right, That's why the

prayers in those days are the early days are very

short prayers or no Peter raising the man at the

beautiful gate who was lame? What do you say in

the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk?

What a short prayer, but the miracle, big small prayer,

big miracle. Right, Because it's authority. When you have authority,

you don't have to speak a rt No. Only people

who don't have authority they have to argue and shout

and cry and plead. Right, the word with authority says

sit down, stand up, clap your hands, shout to God.

You know no argument. So God wants to give that

to all of us in this room and to everyone

else that is following.

Right are you are you okay? So far so good?

All right?

So as we as we let's look at us first light.

I think you have the word big mission, make disciples, right,

Make disciples is the word. And make disciples just means

follow me. Okay, follow me very important. Just write that down.

Follow me. Every time you see the word disciple, remember

follow me. But how can they follow you if you

are not fruitful? So he starts with be fruitful and

then multiply. So everyone in this room, you know you

can be fruitful. And after you are fruitful, make sure

you have follow us. Make sure you multiply yourself. God

has always been about people.

Can I hear good?

Amen? He's not about programs. He's not about property, he's

not about profit. He's about people. People make property good. Now,

Malaysia's very beautiful, you know. In celebrating my twenty fifth anniversary,

my reading anniversary five years ago couldn't anyway because pandemic.

So when there was a window, I took my wife

round trip in Malaysia. We went to Clanton, went to Rugano,

I went to sadist places.

I'm telling you it's beautiful.

I went to Santorini for my twentieth wedding anniversary, and

I tell you it's beautiful. Centerini is beautiful. But the

sunset and the sunriser is the same as the sunset

is very beautiful. Who who he is from? A gortal

or from East Malaysia? Oh? Yeah, beautiful, beautiful, Yeah, beautiful, beautiful.

Beautiful Malaysia is very beautiful. What makes it ugly? People? People? People?

Politics is not bad. No, politics itself is not dead.

Politicians different. Sorry are you with me? Church is amazing?

When it's not amazing, it's because of people. You know.

Why you will hate to go to the office on my

not your work, is the people, including your boss.

Why would you love to go to work on Monday?

It's the people.

You can't wait to go for lunch with your colleagues

on Monday because they make you feel good. Why do

you go to school? Why are you excited to go

to school? Because you love mathematics maybe science? You love exams? No,

you love the people in the school. Why do you

hate going to school? What is bulling all about? A

robot is bulling you? No? What is suicide all about?

Do you think people just think about suicide just because No,

I'll tell you what because I can say with authority.

Because my old sister took her life when she was

twenty years old, and that tragedy turned it into testimony

today I help young people because my own sister died.

But if there was enough support, my sister would have died.

But you know, I can go on and on.

I'm just trying to bring across a point that God

is about people, and we are about people, and discipleship

is about people.

Everybody. Okay, way, what did Now?

Let me say something else before I go onto your notes,

because I think how great can jump to fill up

the blanks. The earth will be filled with the knowledge

of the glory of the Lord. As the waters covered

the sea. God says, be foodful, multiply Feel the Earth.

Can I just say this to you before I move on?

The Earth? Is you? The earth is not some round

mass in the atmosphere, because in the beginning God created man,

and men came from the earth. So when we say

let the earth seeing his praise, is you let the

earth glorify me?

Is you be filled with the glory?

It's the earth. And where the women come from. If

man came from the earth, where the woman come from.

Women came from the man the rib earth. And when

man dies, he goes back into the earth. So God

when he says feel the Earth, he's saying feel people

he's not interested. You just feeling the ground, feeling the people. Amen.

And you can read the scripture again and again you

find that, you know, when God spoke about the earth,

he spoke about potential, and out of the earth came

the trees and the fruits, things that can sustain men. Yeah,

and now now you know why herbs or if you

from America, is herbs right, Herbs are healthy for you

because he comes from the ground. So if I look

at quanchin, now everything that he needs in his body

is from the earth because he came from the earth.

So if it's a cancer issuer, you will find that

somebody is gonna find a cure for cancer. But it

will not just be a chemical pill. It will be

from the earth. Because when you're afflicted with some sickness,

it's because there's some lack in your body. But when

you put something from the earth back in, it's say

that we haven't discovered what that is. So people are

making all kinds of scientific research. So this herb and

the herbs and the plants all come from be That's

why when you take a lot of synthetic pills and

all that kind of stuff, you will have all these

other side effects. It can might maybe heal you or

cure you for a time, but you will have all

kinds of effects.

The best and.

Most people say take herbal tak herbal takable. And that's

what doesn't mean. I'm not against pills and I'm not

against medication, modern medication, but I'm just explaining to you

all that my body needs is from the Amen and

the Earth. Earth was made into a man. A man

will go back to the earth does to us, yeah,

ashes to ashes. But what God did that made the

earth differently is he breathed into the earth his breath

of life, and man became a living being. One day

we will die, and thank God that while our body

goes to the earth, our spirit will go back to

God and those of us who know Jesus will be

in Heaven with Him forever. Everybody, okay with this very

very important. I'm talking about earth. I'm talking about you

and me. I'm talking about people. Let the earth be

filled with the knowledge. Who needs to be filled? You

and I need to be filled with the knowledge of

the glory of the Lord. As the waters covered the sea,

Let's go. We may not be able to fulfill the

big vision of filling the earth with the knowledge of

the glory of the Lord. But what we could do

is to be fruitful and multiply. That's our part. We

can do this. It is not rocket side. It's whether

you want to do this or not. Okay. I encourage

all of you in this room be fruitful and multiply.

How is this done well? Number One, we make disciples.

We make disciples. Follow me, okay, So get your life

right before the year ends. I want to tell you this,

get your life right in the months to come, because

if you want people to follow you, then you've got

to be a good example, all right. If you can't,

you find you have to be a good example. To

be an example of Jesus. Ask the Holy Spirit for help.

He will make you a good example. Okay. You don't

want people to follow your bad habits, and you don't

want people to follow you know something that's less than

what Christ is. So let's get our lives right. I

pray in the name of Jesus. I'm closing my eyes

for a moment because I'm praying for you right now.

I pray the name of Jesus, and all of us

will aligned with the word and the will of God.

This coming year. We will not fight, you know, and

argue with God. God's word is old, God's word is irrelevant.

Don't argue, don't argue. God knows better than the maker,

will always know better than the product. The baker will

always know better. Let's stop arguing, and let's stop start

subduing and submitting and coming into alignment with God's will.

And then let's make disciples. Multiply number two. We produce leaders.

A true disciple is not just a follow of Christ

and his leaders, but also follows how Christ led and

raise others, turning every pre believer to be a partner,

every partner to be a pioneer, and every pioneer to

be a parent. Very important, all right, it's all stages.

A partner means, you know, you want a partner with

ex church to fulfill God's will. And then you want

a pioneer. You want to start something, you want to

lead a person, and then you want to be a

parent where you will help other pioneers do the same

as you have done. Now, planner, disciple, very important, produce

a leader, all right.

We plant the Lazarus in Botswana.

We planted Benji in Osaka, planted Passa Joel in Melbourne.

We planted Dave Passa Dave in UK. Uh. You know,

you might say ex Church plans churches, but actually what

we do is we planned disciples. See you plan a church,

a church can fail. You plan a disciple, a true disciple,

he never fails even if he does. What do I

mean by that, Well, some things can be seen as failure,

like rent out of money or right out of time,

and it might be seen as Passa Lazarus started ex

Oxford for us and then one year one year later

we had to close it down because Passa Lazarus had

to go back to Africa and there was no one

to take his place to continue x Oxford. Even say

Oxford ad makes me feel clever. I don't know why

I know suddenly, but you know it looks like a failure,

but Lazarus didn't fail. M hmm. I want to tell you, guys,

Air and maybe minister to you for a minute. When

you plan a disciple, that's why you spend a lot

of time with the disciple, because you want to make

sure that he is or she is a disciple, one

who knows God's word and wants to follow God. Not.

We're not perfect, but at least we know that's our north,

that that's what we continue to go back to write

his word, looking onto Jesus, the author and finish of

our faith. We keep looking to him when.

We plan a disciple.

The church is in good hands because the disciple is

not supposed to be greedy, right, That's why he's the disciple.

He's not supposed to be selfish. He's supposed to She's

supposed to know when to say sorry and forgive and

be forgiven. A disciple wants to please God, so he's

he's not late to church early to go home. He's

usually early to church, late to go home. I can,

I can move on, I can move outside of church

and go I would. I would love to plan a

disciple as a husband, because then I know that marriage

will work. I would love to plan uh disciple as

a wife. And if there are two disciples husband and wife,

I know then no matter how south that marriage goes,

it will not go so south that you lose everything.

Because the disciple knows how to utn. A disciple knows

how to say I'm sorry. A disciple knows how to

see his faults with God's help and ask God to

change him. I would love to plan a disciple as

a boss in the company because he will care for

his people a disciple. I would love to plan a

disciple as a manager because the same thing, he will

both be faithful to his boss and also to his underline.

Are you with me? I love to plan the disciple

as a politician, because then I know that politics will

be better. So I don't just want to plan at church.

I plan a disciple and I and I know it's

going to be all right. I know it's going to

be all right because there's so much about a disciple.

That you can trust.

And yes, we're not perfect, but we keep coming back

to Christ, we keep coming back to the one we

are following.

Are you also with me? Very very important?

So we plan the disciple where we get sorry, what

do we get? Next point?

What we get when we plan this cyple or a

seed is that we produce a leader.

Yeah, someone who will eventually lead others in the same way.

He plans lives to gain lives. That's right. God is

into people, people reaching people.

Point Number three, Raise and release Daniels into the marketplace.

Choose one mountain this year and take it for the Lord.

Question which mountain is our God leading you to take

that question? Maybe you can consider it towards the end

of our message. But what I want to say to

you is that God wants us to focus on growing

deep roots to produce good fruit. The root equals going

deeper into the world. So you heard all that, Let

me explain to you Daniel again. So for the first

twenty years of ex Church twenty we were going on

a Joseph vision. Joseph read the Bible. He was a

man who who dreamt and was able to interpret dreams,

and he went from a father's pet to the pit

to party fast House. I got a message all in peace,

trying to remember all the peace pet to Pitt, to

party fast House, to the prison right and then to

the palace and then Prime Minister. So God can do that.

He can cause you know your mountain that seems so insurmountable,

so huge, like it's blocking your way. God, can you know,

cause you to go from the very bottom of that

mountain to very to the very top. Can I hear good? Amen?

God can do it. God can do it.

And so the next twenty years, starting from year twenty twenty,

God said you will be a dad. So we're not

just talking about any disciples. We're talking about disciples who

will be Daniels. And the thing about Daniel, which I

think Elder Roles would have told you, is that he

was found in the marketplace. So these days, when I'm

asked whether I want to have more people join ats

church full time, I usually will question whether that's necessary.

Because of the vision that God gave us since twenty twenty,

which is to be a Daniel church, I realize he

wants more full timers out there this place. The church

is already too bright. We have to get some light

out to the darkness. And the darkness is found in

your school, in your university, in your offices, it's out

there in your neighborhood. So we need the light to

be out there. And there's too many people who know.

Sometimes you go like, I love God, I want to

serve God, and I want to go full time. I

want to encourage you that you can be full time

for God wherever you are. Daniel was so full time

that man the Bible says he opened his windows to

pray three times a day. He was his custom. And

when the people wanted to bring him down. All the

people who didn't like him want to bring him down.

They couldn't find anything against him except if they dealt

with the law of his God. And so they made

a law whereby nobody can bow down to any other

God except the God that the King made write the

image the King made. And so Daniel wasn't going to

bow down to the image because it would be idolatry.

So he went back to his room and he bowed

down to the living God. And so that's where they

caught him. And you know, to him, he's like, I'm

a lion, and I am under authority, not just to

the king, but the King of kings. And if I die,

I die. And they threw him into the lions den, remember,

and even the lions became his friend. The lions gave

him high five hugs. I don't know about that. But

we want to be Daniels. We want Daniels serve for

kings who are unbelievers but became believers because of Daniel.

You with me, So we want ex church, all of

us to be not only disciples, but to be disciples

in your market place. Not only really by some clarity

of God that you are called full time. I will

be the first to say welcome. Otherwise I'll say pray

again and seek God because I really believe the vision

is clear that we need to be out there all right.

What is the vision again? Number one? Dominion? Okay, we

will have that on the screen. What is the How

do we get there? How do we have dominion over

the earth, over everything? That God has given us mission

is to make disciples and the direction is Daniel. God

doesn't want us to be ex Church as a brand.

He wants us to be a lifestyle, to live out

acts that will reach pre believers who may not understand

church but understand practical love, peace, care, grace, friendship, joy, prayer,

et cetera.

What will exs Church become?

Now? Some years ago God said to me, Kenneth, I

don't want you just to make disciples. I want you

to make sense. I'm gonna explain what it means to you.

So he gave me this image. And if you look

at this image, it will have ax off. So our

name X is there. But all the other things written

there is things that make sense to the world, to

your friends, to your colleagues. It's really important if you

want to be a disciple and a daniel to the

world that we live in.

Is not just to make disciples.

Like, hey, you know you go to your neighbor, I

don't want to let you know a neighbor that Jesus

loves you and he can't wait for you to to

become his child. And now, if God told you to

say that, then say okay. But most of the time

people don't know Christian jargon. They don't know Christian juggant.

But what they know is love. What they know is kindness,

what they know is patience, what they know is forgiveness.

All right, So I tried with my neighbors. I went

to Moncca recently and the kaya, the kaiya was so good,

I thought, who can I buy it for? Then I'm

thinking immediately of my own family, which usually you do, right,

because yellah, you know, selfish, but not selfish, no selfish,

because your thinking of your family by selfish because your family, right.

And then I said, hey, I'm sure there are people

because my family has come to know the Lord. I'm sure.

So my God put it into my heart, Kenneth, how

about your neighbors. Take care of your neighbors. So I

bought four bottles of KaiA and gave it to them.

The next morning, they saw me and said, Kenneth. You know,

they don't call me pastoral Keadem because pastor OsO is

not doesn't really make sense to them. So they call

me Kenneth because I'm their neighbor, Kenneth. And am I

okay with that? Of course I'm okay because even in

heaven I became Kenneth. I will not enter heaven. And

then the puly gates opener uh and then the angels

is pastor Kenneth. No, no, no, it will just be Kenneth. Seriously,

don't don't be hooked up on titles. I'm training myself.

We just this is this is my name. My real

name is Kenneth, I know. And when I go around

on something and pastors introduce themselves, say Hi, what's your name, pastor?

And they say past us, And so I said, I

don't think past is in your name, right, it's on you,

I see. But but anyway, I'll just say I'm Kenneth.

Uh and and and so they say, Kenneth. That Kaya

you know from from from next door? That Kaya so good?

You know, wow? Wow? I just made them Kaya. I

made them rich. Uh and uh. Then recently Frod has

got cookies. I bought again, I bought again. And the

funny thing is all four neighbors are away on holiday

and my wife says, you know, uh, let's just eat

it ourselves. No okay, no, no, no no, no, we wait,

we wait, we wait, we wait. Neighbors are taking care

of Your neighbors are very but they know because I

tell you, when your neighbors are happy with you, you

are very safe. Because someone could be climbing your fencer.

Your neighbor needs to tell you no. But if your

neighbor doesn't like you, you won't tell you. Then little

or no. If the house ever gets broken into a

you say he did. Your neighbors said, yeah, I saw

a man, two men climbing, but I thought it was

your uncle simply to your uncle. No. No.

I tell you why I feel quite safe at the bag.

And besides the angels, and besides God's protection is because

if you take care of your your neighbors, your neighbors

should take care of you. Now, okay, listen, what I'm

trying to say is that kaya makes sense. Froth cookies

make sense before you teach forgiveness. Before you teach justification,

sanctification and glorification before you say church and worship and

all these other stuff that we say. Praise the Lord

your neighborhood, what's that. No, we are. We are into

the praise the Lord, which is fine, it's okay. Especially

with Christians. Sometimes we say praise as so many times

that we even say the wrong time. Yeah, my mom

is the hospital. Praise the Lord. No, I mean amen, No, no,

because it's because the jargon, so praise the Lord. No, yeah,

makes sense. Hey, do you know that going to work

on time makes sense? Because very hard to tell your

boss about Jesus when you're late every morning.

You are late every morning.

No, no, no, you're you're late every morning. And then

you tell your boss about Jesus and your boys says

you can keep your Jesus because he looks like he

encourages people to be late, you know, or you are

so stingy. You know, from very young idea. The Holy

Spit taught me to be generous, so even without money,

and you know, for the last three years I have

those salary, but it doesn't doesn't stop me from being generous,

you know, because my money comes from the Lautner. So

you give the gibella, but our hands are so full

he cannot feel it. So you keep giving away, so

you can feel us give away, feel us empty hands

give away. But sometimes you hold on like children hold

on to toys. How the patter is gonna give any

more toys? When the children hold on the toys? If

you had the parts, who say, I can't buy you

anyone because you're you keep holding on to your toys.

Let go right. So I have a friend. Note I

remember eating with him, and he was working. I was

not yet working. Uh. When I tell you story, my

boy will say, she will laugh because she knows who

I'm talking about. Uh. And he's a friend, but he's

funny that he says so funny. And he was making

a good salary and I was not. And then he

wrote each and take that okay, And I mean it

was very cheap, very cheap. So I said, uh, in

my mind, I said, I'm gonna pay this bill. And

then he brought out a little pouch, a little pouch, and.

He's like, got coins and he's digging the coins.

He's digging coins to find the exact change for his rota.

And I and his staytar all right, I know I

mean this. This is a story. I will never let

you know his name. Sorry story, but real story. Sorry.

When I saw him digginger, I felt I got saying

let her Lord, this is see see this is how

a lot of Christians do. Know this, keep digging, dig

gig and dig, gig and digging. How many of you

like that? When you ask God for blessing her, he

also dig into his little pouch. You are, you are

blessing her, you're healing. Let me see how much I

have in my poucher. A poucher so small, you know,

your mentality so small, your heart so small? You don't

put your little ziba and dig, you dig take out

of fifty cent. No, he got the fifty seve. But

you won't touch fifty cent, you know because the time

only forty cent. So he wanted to God would never

treat you that way. Somebody say, amen, God, I want

a healing, let me dig my little pouch.

Was No, God gave you his son. You want to

be generous like God?

No, So I told him, almost mentioned his day. I said, brother,

I say, brother, let me pay you know what I mean? Like,

but you're not working. I said, never mind, I have

more than fifty sends in my bucket. And you know

what he did, he closes his powers. Thank you so much.

That's why I'm blessed her today. No money is going

to have house, no money or we can have you

know things, because see, it's not about our salary. It's

not a pay it's not it's just a heart. Let

people see. People understand generosity, don't they understand? Generosity makes

sense to the people around you.

Makes sense. Be kind, be loving, be patient?

All right?

Are you ready? We've got a word there.

To connect is to make sense even before we make disciples. Yeah,

you will never be able to effectively connect if you

don't make sense because they don't understand you.

They don't understand your Kong mayor know what are you saying?

Well, if you are going to be ex off and

just live your life like that, I'll tell you what

We're gonna be not only good disciples, but we're gonna

make good disciples. All right, Okay, can we look at

number some numbers and then I'll close. All right, I

know that's all the time we have, so let's look

at have a kook two too. Then the Lord answered

me and said, write the vision and make it plain

on tablets that he may run who reads it? Somebody say, run,

that's what we wanna do. We don't want to drag

our feet to church. Too many Christians are dragging your

feet to church like there's no passion, no purpose, no excitement.

Don't drag, don't drag. You wanna come?

Come? You don't want to come, stay at home, but

you're you're gonna. I You're gonna come. Run. Be excited, amen,

be excited, be excited. So if you are more excited

with your Instagram and your tink talk, whoa more excited

than you are with church? Please don't be like that

twenty twenty six can or not? Yeah?

I know, I know it's very boring, right, right, it's

very boring.

Come to church, listen to a speakers speak right Because

of course we are people who are into scrolling now,

so we can go further than two seconds. If you're not,

so you keep scrolling. Some of you see that here

probably look at me wishing I could be scrolled. Sorry,

I'm still here, right, And some of you after you're born, ready, right,

maybe the first five minutes you're idea on your phone

and you're looking already. Yeah, it means you're addicted. I

tell you what in Jesus name, I buy a spirit

and cast it out. Okay, number one ten ten. Back

in twenty twenty, I said there's ten years to do this.

Ten years twenty twenty tea is ten years. The focus

is for ten years now. Of course, now we don't

have ten years. We only have five, okay, because we

are already coming to twenty twenty six. But I believe

that God can still do it.

He can still do miracles in our lives.

Okay, all right, So the I don't know the diagram

or the graph.

At the bag or the picture the visual will show you.

First twenty years is Joseph. Second, two years is Daniel

Elder Rose, who have told you that twenty fifteen, well

receive a vision from the Lord to set our house

in order. So for fifteen years to twenty thirty. Now

not fifteen anymore, not even ten anymore, but five more years,

we've got to set our house in order. Because because

that's why we want to write the vision plainly, because

we don't just want to run, but by twenty thirty

we want to fly. We want to fly for God

all right, and the Bible says, you know, we will

mount up with wings as eagles, so yes, we can fly.

We will run and not be weary. We walk and

not faint. So there's a walk, there's a run, DA's

a fly, and we will fly. But before we fly,

we must run.

And how do you run?

You run when the vision is written plainly, That's why

we're doing this, so that you and I can run.

And when we run, we will one day fly, okay,

above every storm in our lives.

Everybody, okay, So how do I get a ten years?

I went into Daniel and found out that Daniel did

not want to defil himself with the King's delicacies, with

all the sweets and cakes and all that and the wine.

So Daniel chose God's diet. God's diet was very boring,

vegetable and water. But we all know that after ten

days he looked better, healthier. If Bible translation says fatter fatter,

just look at how I had been so blessed vegetables

and water. Don't play for it now. Vegetables and water

in the spiritual sense is that we chose God's diet,

and God's diet usually is boring, the world will cry

out all kinds of anthem. The world today will cry

the majority will cry out LGBT, LGBT. And in the

eyes of the church, we stand aligned by God's word

right and we say no, we don't believe in that,

we don't believe that. How that's how God made us.

They will say we are not only boring but irrelevant.

All your Bible is all not realizing that is the

most alive book you can ever read. It's more relevant

today than ever before. But people don't aligne. You see,

there's just one their way. That's why the LGBT will

not just be LGBT B l g B, t Q

i Q going going on like how you know, I

remember one particular children's program m I C E K

E Y M O U S. The letters will keep

going on, and you'll keep going on because people will

want their way. And the more you want your way,

the more you add another letter to that. But the

more you come nearer and aligned back to Genesis, you

want God's way. See, there's a lot of screams and christs.

Now do we love the people who are algabts? Of

course God loves them too. Jesus died for them too,

But that doesn't mean he will compromise on his ways,

his word, his will, his standards.

And the church must stand strong.

But we will be rejectedly because the majority will try

to push us to a corner. But can I tell

you this? Can I tell you this. We might be minority,

but minority plus God is majority. Minority plus God is majority.

Don't ever fear, don't ever be afraid, don't ever run away,

don't ever hide. You know, even if you have to

be like Daniel said to the lions, then I'm telling

you it stands strong because God would deliver us. God

would deliver us. So ten days he said, test us,

and he appeared ten days later, Come on.

Strong, healthier.

How in the world it doesn't make sense. Vegetables and

water doesn't make sense. I saw the times sister, thank

you so much. She's like trying to put it up,

but she's like afterwards, she's waving, and I saw so

I said, whoa, whoa wow. Ten minutes became one hundred minutes.

Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, so very very important to understand. Yes,

vegetable water not so tasty. I tell you most Malayians

cannot live just on vegetable water, how to, how to.

I was in the UK for about two weeks. I

can't wait to come back now. I had a great

time UK, don't get me wrong. But when it comes

to food, I tell you, I tell you, no, nothing

beats Malaysia. The closest is Thailanda. The closest it comes

to food, variety of food. Yeah, but Malaysia. Don't you

ever forget that? Please? I pray, no one here my

grades nor my grade unless a lot you know, sends

an angel to your room and tell you my greator

they maybe go otherwise. Understand this, There's no place like home,

no place like home. All right, So ten days to

me it was ten years. So I wanted to bring

exchurch on a God diet. Now some of you going

through this USO, I say, boring hurd it before what

to do? I still have to give it to you.

I've got It's God's diet. But I tell you, if

you take it to heart, you will end up by

twenty thirty healthier than you've ever been. And at the

healthy place of twenty thirty, we will fly. Because twenty

thirty is not there. Because some people say past you

keep talking about twenty th this way we go die,

is it? No? You keep talking about twenty th that's

when the earth work fit. No, No, I'm just saying

we are being prepared. So they're from twenty thirty, however

long God wants to, you know, prolonged, we will be ready.

Because I tell you, Adiza, really the world is quite

in a messy place though twenty thirty, I tell you

it will be messier.

Now they're fighting about Gaza and Israel.

I'll tell you by twenty thirty is going to be messier.

It's going to come into our schools, already come to

our schools. It might even come to our syllables. Though,

don't say no, it can happen a syllables just on Gaza.

I don't know.

All our kids have had to learn it very important

for all of us to be disciples strong today so

that we can help the next generation understand the truth

and the truth and only the truth will set you.

So the next one is one thousand and one thousand

and our our run. Okay, I'll run like crazy because

it's not It doesn't need to be heavy, it doesn't

need to be long. So this is what happened when

we lost the building so many years ago, twenty ten.

We lost the building because church Exchers grew out of

one thousand and five and I thought the next number

was three thousand, so I got a building that could

six three thousand. I didn't really ask God about it,

because it looks so natural that a mega church will

keep going and keep getting bigger and bigger and bigger.

I didn't ask God fully about it, I must confess,

and I just went on. I just went on because

it's a natural thing to do, right that when you're big,

just put all three thousand into one place. And we

lost the building, We lost our deposit. And the Lord

just told me, Kenneth, I allow you to go through

this so that you will never want to build another building,

because I don't want you to build buildings. I want

you to build a movement. I say, what's that, God,

He says, Kenneth, you brought this church to a thousand people.

That's the regular we had. We had regular one thousand.

Why don't you believe that every one of the one

thousand you have can also be like you? And with

another thousand. That's where the thousand times thousand. Now, some

people really even in our own church fought against that

because pass one million. I forgot to tell them. Then.

What I know better now is that don't get hooked

up with numbers. One thousand times one thousand doesn't mean

one million. It just means keep going, just means keep growing,

just means keep planting, just means keep leading, making disciples. Okay,

otherwise you know what you have problems with? You also

have problems with Lord Jesus. How many times must we

forgive our brother seventy times seven? Do you have problems

with that? How many seventy times seven accounted four hundred

and ninety four hundred ninety for one signal? Then the

second scene is ford and ninety again that scene. Okay,

so just for one sinner, you have to forgive him

for the ninety if you're counting, if you are counting,

but the spirit behind seventy times seven's not counting because

you would have forgiven your brother found ninety times, are

waiting for the fortun and ninety one times, and then

your brother's sitting against you the for the ninety one time,

and they said, now you die, Now you die, because

at this waiting I'm counting, you know, ah, now you die,

you gotta get it cow from me. You gotta get it,

you know, because the Lord only allowed seventy times seven.

That's not the spirit behind the number, you know what

I'm saying. So one thousand is us. The first thousand.

The next thousand belongs to God. We cannot do what

He alone can do. But what we can do is

to work with the thousand that is already here, and

you are part of it. God wants every one of

the thousand to say, here I am Lord, send me.

I will be that disciple. I will follow you, and

I will make follows of others. So don't worry about

the miracle thousand, because God can even do more than that.

Somebody say, Amen, not one Millionary can do ten million.

Believe Graham, let fifty million people do. Christ Ryan hut

bonk let seventy five million to Christ? What's one million?

What's one million? No, take care of what you have,

don't worry about what you don't. Amen, we want to

help you. Believe. That's what they say. Is there in

the blank, and dream that God will use every somebody say,

every every person in acts. It is going to happen.

It's going to happen. You see friends that listen to me. Now,

if there were one hundred people, one hundred people inside

this room, now there's more, I know, but there's one hundred,

and only seventy became disciposal. What happened to the thirty?

You mean you guys are here just to warm the seed?

You with me? If there's sixty disciples and forty are not,

then you came to church for what. So I cannot

afford that. I say, Lord, I have to be accountable

for every single person you brought here, because you didn't

bring them here by mistake. Nobody walked into this church

by mistake. They made a choice. They came. They said

they are now part of this house, and this house

has a vision from God. Those say eighty six nineteen

nine or so. It's not good enough, no, because then

what happened to the one? You mean there's one in

our myths? They say, sorry, pastor, you just talk like

I'm here just to warm the seed. I'm here late

and I'm I'm off early. You know, those kind of

people won't last, and neither would they be happy at

the end of their life because they won't be frufod.

They won't multiply even if they're frufod, they will ultiply

and then later on they blame Wood their pastor for

not teaching them, or they come before the Lord and

they say, God, you know, my life was so miserable.

I didn't even know why I lived. And say, you

went to change and they taught you. Oh, you know,

I just thought it was a speech. This is not

a speech. A lot of people come up out to

me and say, oh, pass, can I thank you for

the speech? All this is not a speech. It is

the word of God. It is the word of life. Amen,

all right, thank your politician for the speech. Okay, don't

tell your bastard for the speech. Okay, tell your politician. Okay,

tell your bastard for the word of God that changes lives,

gives you meaning purpose. All right, drawing to a close,

have you ever experienced something that was initially a disappointment,

only for God to turn you around for the better. Yes?

Can I tell you, coward to prophesy to all of

you that your disappointments today will turn into appointments. You

will have an appointment with God and with your destiny,

and sometimes disappointments may turn you that direction. Yeah, it's true.

Sometimes disappointments turn you to the direction of appointments. Without

a disappointment, you may never have met your appointment. Everybody, okay,

So bottom line of discipleship is follow me, keep going,

keep going, keep growing. I shouldn't even say keep growing,

don't stop. Amen. Now as I draw to a close,

Daniel one talked about ten times better, and that was

a promise God gave to me and to ex church

that everyone who says, yes, Lord, I want to be

your disciple, I want to make I want to be

serious about being in this church. I want to be

serious about being a disciple and being a Daniel. I

want to be serious about aligning myself to your will

and your word. God said to me he will bring

about a ten times increase in your life. So I

want to prophesy this over your life. I don't know

in what area you need to increase, but I want

to say this in the name of Jesus, that all

of you will as you honor God, as you please him,

as you choose not to defile yourself with the world's diet,

but with God's diet. You say, Lord, I live to

please you. I want to say this to you that

there is a blessing waiting for you ten times. You know.

The King interviewed all the wise men, and the King

found Daniel, Shadrack, Mischek and Abtigo, the four friends. There

was no one wiser than them. Ten times more they

were wiser. And I want to speak that over your life.

I want to speak that you will be the head

and not the tale above and not beneath. Can somebody say, amen,

that you'll be blessed in everything. I'm not just talking

about money here. If you need money, money was overcome

because God knows you need money to do what you

need to do. But more that, more than that, somebody's health. Health,

That you'll be healthier than anyone else you know, so

that you can do the work of God. That you

be happier ten times happier, ten times more fulfilled, ten

times more for satisfied, ten times more influential. I don't

care about all these influencers. His all influencers in the Instagram, okay, Gula,

But with God, he can make all of us in

this room influences ten times more. So as we close,

take stalk of all that God has already given us,

and do our best to draw out the best in others.

Recap Who has God given us? You put that name down,

because what are we about people? Why do you think

He's given us? Him? Them? Him? Hear them? Because God

is interested about people. What is the best we can

do or you can do to bring out the best

in Him? Her? Them?

People, people, people.

I think everyone here in this room you're part of

the homes. If you're not part of homes yet, please

be part of the homes so that God can bring

you people. And I pray that you will be fruitful.

I pray that you will multiply yourself into others. But

even if God only gave you one person, maybe it's

not your homes. Maybe it's your children. Do you know

that you can die disciple? Your children start with that,

your family and then the family of ex church. Is

this okay? Look around you? As I close, I want

to say this, look around you. If there's really one

hundred people in this room, please look around you and

just ask yourself. This person is sitting next to me,

behind me, in front of me. They're actually very precious

to God. It was not by accident that they came.

There's no accident in God. It's only appointment, divine appointment.

I hope that even if they're not a disciple today,

that they will be in three months time, they will

be in six months time. I pray to everyone here

who's not yet a disciple, not yet under anyone, please

get serious, because that's what God wants. And I tell

you what, when you become a disciple, there's no place

God cannot take you, no place God cannot plan you.

God's gonna use you mightily. But look around you and

you say, oh, I'm looking at that. Maybe you're saying,

I'm looking at brother. He's been in this church for

three years, you know, but he just comes and go,

comes and go, come and go. I don't think I

can do that anymore. I'm going to approaching for lunch,

thinking off for lunch and say, brother, you heard the message,

you know, would you like to be serious? And the

brother might say, actually, I'm so glad you asked me

because I heard the message. I think, yeah, yeah, I

don't just want to be a person that warms the

seat every Sunday for the next ten years. I want

to do something with my life. And maybe he said, yeah,

let's walk together. So that's what this question is. Challenging

you through. Let's not think about the times thousand. Let's

think about the thousand that's already here. Be'st thing about

the hundred that's already here. I think it's more than hundred. Yeah,

maybe one hundred and seventy, you know. Okay, just make

sure that everyone is covered. Start with the first thousand,

Start with the first thousand and says your last blank.

Start with us, start with tanity, Start with your homes Father,

in the name of Jesus, I thank you for this session.

I've spoken more than what the notes required, but I

pray that everyone here is blessed. Thank you Lord for

the potential that's in this room. There's potential in this room.

You know. In the Bible, in the book of Genesis,

God created first of all night and day. Then he

created the heavens, and then he went on to create

the earth, and out from the earth came sustenance for mankind.

I want to believe that all of you in this room,

who are part of the earth. You men are made

from the earth. You women are made from men who

are from the earth. We are Earth, and to Earth

we will return. I want you to understand that there

is potential in every one of you. There is potential.

Malaysia will be a better place not because of a

good program, but because of a good person. Ten thirty

in ex Church will not be a more exciting place

because of another great program. No, no, no, not just

because of more musical instruments. No, the instruments can't play

by itself. Oh, I'm telling you ten thirty, the best

days are ahead of you. Why because of you? The

best days are ahead of you. Because of you. God

is going to use you. You.

You are the answer. You are the answer to your future.

You are the other.

God has put potential in you, and with God, all

things are possible. With God, all things are possible. I

prophesy that over ten thirty. I prophesy that over all

of your lives you are amazing potential in the hands

of the Father.

You ain't seen nothing yet.

The best in and of your lives are found within you,

the God, in you, Jesus, in us, the hope of glory. Lord,

thank you for this time. I pray that we will

take discipleship seriously. I pray that we will disciple one

another and be disciples of each other. I pray God

that we will not have any pew warmers or seat warmers.

People who just come for a show because there's nothing

to show. There's nothing, there's no entertainment. There is only empowerment,

No entertains, only empowerment. The Holy Experience here waiting to

empower us for the next level of our lives. Receive it.

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

hit for you. God bless
