  1. God is good, and good means he gives totally of

  2. himself so that you will benefit.

  3. He gives everything that he's got. I love my.

  4. Wife and children, will love my family. I love my

  5. brother's assistance. But I don't know if I give my life.

  6. I don't know in my human self. But God took

  7. his blameless son, hm blameless, made him sin so you

  8. could be made righteous. That he loved you so much

  9. that he would murder his son. And yet you sit

  10. and look unbothered and act like they're talking about some

  11. person far away, some person that doesn't concern you, when

  12. your very existence depends on him. The very air you breathe,

  13. the very air in your lungs belong to him.

  14. A spirit of ingratitude.

  15. God help us, God have mercy on us and deliver

  16. us from the spirit of ingratitude. Summer said, I was

  17. glad when they said, unto me, let us do what

  18. go into as Why are you coming into the house

  19. of the Lord? Are you glad to be here? Are

  20. you glad to be alive? I can take you to

  21. the hospital right now. There's some people who wish, I

  22. wish there could be in the right mind, have the

  23. activity of their limbs, all their faculty is functioning. He's

  24. been merciful to you. He's worthy. Hallelujah. You may be seated. Oh,

  25. if you're gonna clap, club, I didn't have you to

  26. do it. If God you're clapping four. If He's done

  27. anything in your life and you think is worthy, then

  28. you clap. I thank the Lord for the life of

  29. a papa and for a bishop.

  30. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes yes. Some of us we

  31. don't know where we will be.

  32. May look nice on the outside, but only God knows

  33. what's going on on the inside.

  34. Do I know? When you blow me agream, don't be deceived.

  35. All that glitters is.

  36. Not gold but God. But God of all the people,

  37. he can pick all the choices that he has, that

  38. he would even include me.

  39. He's worthy.

  40. Today I want to talk on the proof of purchase

  41. the blood. Our papa began that last week, and we're

  42. just gonna try and keep up with our father. He's

  43. deep and it's there's quite some shoes to fail to

  44. try and walk in, to try and emulate.

  45. But we pray for grace.

  46. Let us go to Revelation five verses five and six,

  47. and one of the elders saith unto me weep not

  48. behold the line of the tribe of Judah. The root

  49. of David had prevailed to open the book and to

  50. loose the seven seals thereof for six and I beheld,

  51. and lo in the midst of the throne and of

  52. the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders,

  53. stood a lamb. Somebody say, a lamb, a lamb as

  54. it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes,

  55. which are the seven spirits of God sent forth into

  56. all the earth. The word of the Lord is blessed.

  57. Now this depiction here is referring to a time in

  58. heaven when there was a war going on, when there

  59. was a war going on, and Satan had managed to

  60. convince one third. Now, I want you to think about something.

  61. The scripture says, the heavenly jost are innumerable. That means

  62. you and I we can't count. We are unable to

  63. place a number as sign a number. And yet the

  64. devil was able to convince one third of that innumerable number,

  65. and had the nerve to accuse the creator. But you

  66. know his name. He is the accuser of the brethren.

  67. The same devil is the same one that accused God

  68. to men in the garden of Eden, told him, you know,

  69. he doesn't want you to be like him. Did he

  70. tell you not to eat that fruit? Because the moment

  71. you eat that fruit, you will become like him. But

  72. I want to draw your attention again to something. It

  73. is the devil's job to keep you in ignorance, because

  74. had Adam and Eve had just a little thought, they

  75. would have realized that in Genesis, God said he made

  76. us in his what image and likeness? So how then

  77. does the devil come to you and tell you you

  78. are not like him? When he says, I made you

  79. like me, in my image and in my likeness. And

  80. then he breathed his breath, his essence into you, the

  81. same essence that he used to command.

  82. Let there be.

  83. So you don't just look like him. You're not just

  84. made like him, but you have everything that it takes

  85. to do what he does, to command what he commands.

  86. But then, because we don't know, don't you your neighbor

  87. and say you don't know, the enemy, whose job it

  88. is to keep you ignorant, comes to you and tells

  89. you as he does in many situations. You know, the

  90. doctor says this disease you've gotten is incurable. You're gonna die.

  91. You know you've in this case, you're surely going to jail.

  92. You know, this job, this position you've got to you

  93. don't qualify. You're going to fail. You know those exams

  94. you are praying about, you don't know enough. You're going

  95. to fail. But you see, the devil has a way.

  96. He doesn't even have to attack you, He just needs

  97. to suggest sometimes. That is why the word tells us

  98. to renew your mind daily, because this is the battlefield

  99. where he most ensnares you.

  100. How do you renew your mind daily? In the word?

  101. In the word? Because in the word is your identity?

  102. Who you are is clearly spelled out. You get your

  103. identity from the word. But he says you at the

  104. head and not the tail. You're a victor, not a victim.

  105. Mm hmm. But you don't know the word, you won't

  106. read the word, so he keeps you.

  107. In ignorance, and then he's able to dribble you and

  108. make you feel unworthy. But the same Bible telling you

  109. who you are your identity also tells.

  110. You who you are, who sah you are? Who do

  111. you belong to?

  112. And how do you know you belong to Jesus Christ,

  113. the one who shed his blood to make atonement for you.

  114. It is the blood, the marking of the blood that signifies,

  115. signals to the whole world whose you are. And today

  116. we are talking about proof of purchase. See way back

  117. in Calvary, Jesus Christ paid the price. He that knew

  118. no sin, that lamb that knew no sin, was made

  119. sin so that you would be made righteous.

  120. And yet you sin.

  121. And look unbothered because you know you are all glorious,

  122. and you have everything it takes to attain and achieve,

  123. and you know, with your wonderful self, have no clue

  124. what he has done, have no recognition, no appreciation, no

  125. gratitude for what he has done. In heaven, Satan accused

  126. God and managed to convince a third of the innumerable hosts.

  127. Even there.

  128. Among the holy hosts found people that he could deceive

  129. to follow his cause. And you think you very much

  130. for him. He took the Christ, the Christ to the

  131. pinnacle and tried to tempt him and say, look at

  132. all this. I own all this. He's the God of

  133. this world because man seeded his lease to him. So

  134. all of this belongs to me, if you bow to me,

  135. if you let yourself, he will deceive you. But we

  136. are talking today about the proof of purchase the Blood

  137. Revelations twelve and eleven. Revelations twelve and eleven. We have

  138. just read Revelations five, five and six. But this is

  139. another side of that story. You see in five and

  140. six when he convinced the heavenly who was the third

  141. of them, to follow him. He had convinced them, to

  142. convince them, to make them feel that they were He

  143. was a match, he could sit on the throne, that

  144. everything God did, he could do, and that he was

  145. all powerful, he was equal. But there was something that

  146. he forgot. That God in all his knowledge, because he

  147. was omnipotent, omniscient, all knowing, the God of yesterday today,

  148. the God who knows everything, God had foreseen and so

  149. he had already made provision. So the land we're talking

  150. about had been slain from the foundation of the earth.

  151. So it took them, and they.

  152. Overcame him, him being the devil, by the blood of

  153. the lamb and by the word of their testimony. Turn

  154. to anybody, say, even in heaven, they must testify, and

  155. the word of their testimony, and they loved, not their lives,

  156. even on to death. It took that for them to

  157. even testify that. Listen, the only way this matter is

  158. going to be settled is by us declaring, proclaiming what

  159. the Christ had done from the foundation of the earth.

  160. God loves you so much that in his foresight he

  161. prepared a lamb to come and die for you, because

  162. he knew as sinful as we were. For incinded my

  163. mother conceived me is what the word said, sinful nature.

  164. The only thing that was going to be able to

  165. make atonement was the blood of the Lamb, And on

  166. the cross he died and took on your sin to

  167. the point that his father turned his back to him

  168. because God cannot deal with sin.

  169. He has nothing to do with sin.

  170. So at that point, when Jesus Christ are taking your

  171. sin and your sin, and your sin and your sin

  172. and my sin all of my sins, he became sin

  173. and God had to turn his back on him. But

  174. it was for a purpose so that you would become

  175. the righteousness of God through the Lamb through Christ. So

  176. see when you come into his presence and you're sitting

  177. like what, I want you to think back better till

  178. I want you to read. I want you to glean

  179. from this scripture and understand that God had already conceived

  180. of you and had gone ahead. He said, he's standing

  181. at the beginning of your life, and he knows the end.

  182. He has planned your life, cause your parents to meet

  183. and bring you into this world.

  184. To come and live the life that he has planned.

  185. And you think he doesn't know about you, and you

  186. think he doesn't know the struggles you're going through. You

  187. think he doesn't know exactly where you are. The challenges.

  188. They are not meant to break you. He's not punishing you.

  189. But all of these are to lead you, for you

  190. to come to a place of recognizing who is in

  191. your life, for you to come to a place of

  192. understanding how much he loves you, so much so that

  193. he killed his only son. If anybody walked in there

  194. ran and said, listen, I'm gonna give you two choices.

  195. It's you or your best friend. Somebody's gonna die today.

  196. Who would you say, I'll go for my best friend.

  197. I was a fan of fun Fun funnel fanno, and

  198. you see beyond a yeah, I love you, I'm not

  199. hanging for you. Somebody say, but Christ, But Christ so

  200. Revelations twelve and eleven, they overcame him by the blood

  201. of the lamb, and by the word of your testimony.

  202. Papa gave an analogy.

  203. He said, if he were to write you a million

  204. dollar check with your name on it, that means he

  205. intends for.

  206. You to have it. It is designated for you.

  207. But if you take that check home and put it

  208. under your pillow and sleep on it, do you have

  209. a million dollars?

  210. You're still broke. There's a part that you must do.

  211. Having received that check, which is the word of God,

  212. you must cash it. Cashing is enforcing it by your declaration,

  213. by superimposing it on every situation the word. But until

  214. you take that check to the bank and you cash it,

  215. it is not yours, even though it has your name

  216. on it. You haven't received it. Even though it has

  217. your name on it. That is what we must learn

  218. to do.

  219. Take the check that Cristi has written you in the word.

  220. You're a royal priesthood, you're peculiar, you have a royal heritage,

  221. you share you reign with him. Take that to the

  222. bank and force it. Apply it to every situation in

  223. your life. And when the devil comes up when it

  224. comes at you like a flood. The standard that you

  225. raise is the word, but you don't know the word.

  226. The same word tells you thy word have I.

  227. That I may not.

  228. So you really are sinning when you're not studying the word.

  229. Because God is not going to leave his throne and

  230. come down to snatch you from the grip of the fowler,

  231. the snare of the fowler. He told you I've made

  232. this available for you, Cash it and force it.

  233. Apply.

  234. See it's not just enough to hear about what he

  235. has done. It's not enough to hear about the blood.

  236. You must apply the blood. There's a prayer that Papa

  237. prayed one time that I made note of petition the

  238. blood applied, the blood, deploy it appropriated, use it for

  239. the purpose for which it was given. You have an

  240. arsenal and let you sit down and the devil it

  241. plays you like Tim tinto, Tim Tinto, and then you're crying.

  242. God is like, what do you want me to do?

  243. I gave you the power. I gave you the authority.

  244. It's in the blood, the efficacious blood. Efficacious. It is

  245. good for what it is, set for, fit for purpose,

  246. can do everything everything that you need to do. Apply

  247. the blood, apply it to your mind, you see when

  248. it was on the cross, and to put the crown

  249. of thoughs on him. The blood that came from the

  250. piercing deals with our mindset from the head. So when

  251. those thoughts come into your head, the thoughts that the

  252. enemy plants in your mind, you're going to fail, you're

  253. going to die, you're not worthy. You apply the blood.

  254. The blood is good for that too. Apply the blood

  255. to your thought. When those other thoughts come to you

  256. about those things that you shouldn't do to one another,

  257. those things that you mustn't say about one another, those

  258. places that you mustn't go, applied the blood. The battlefield

  259. is here first, he doesn't have to attack you. He

  260. can just suggest and let you blow it out of proportion.

  261. Because you have not learned to say it is written.

  262. You have not learned to apply the blood. Application is key.

  263. Tend your name and say application of the blood is key.

  264. Say it is not enough to just know or talk

  265. about it, but you must apply, and that you must testify,

  266. testify about it your deliverance, your salvation. That's why when

  267. you come to the altar, it's not enough to think, okay,

  268. except to Jesus crisis.

  269. And not settles it. No, you come to the altar and.

  270. Say, I have believed in my heart, but I m

  271. as what confess because the confession, the application h huh,

  272. the application of what you have heard, and the confession

  273. know of it. It's what secures your salvation. It is

  274. not just thinking about it. Then I can lay in

  275. my bed all day and think how saved I am

  276. and know that I'm going to heaven. But you need to,

  277. in the presence of witnesses, confess and declare. Let all

  278. creation here, everything you see is not all that there is.

  279. The Bible tells you wrestle not against flesh and blood.

  280. That means they are spiritual beings. There are other things.

  281. I don't want to give them names, no entities. They

  282. are non entities. The only one who matters is Christ.

  283. But he lets you know they are also around. So

  284. when you make that declaration, you are telling me, back off,

  285. I am marked by the blood, I am his. Your

  286. identity is secured. Who you belong to, who's you are

  287. is established, and therefore he must reckon when he's coming

  288. at you.

  289. Because now it's not.

  290. Just you, you have an whole army of heavenly hosts

  291. fighting with you. John one and twenty nine said John

  292. saw Jesus coming, So Jesus coming onto him, and he said,

  293. behold the lamb of God, which taketh away the sin

  294. of the world. Nothing else, and no one else, Not

  295. your mother's love, not your father's love, not the love

  296. of your siblings, not the love of your boyfriend or

  297. your husband, or your friends. Nothing else can take away

  298. your sin. It is only his blood that is the

  299. proof of purchase. The blood is the only thing that

  300. is acceptable to It is the only thing. You know

  301. how you can go places and you want to I

  302. find out that what means of bottle and they're like, no,

  303. you know, we do only take cash. Yes, in the

  304. spiritual room, the blood is the highest currency. The only

  305. thing that is acceptable is the blood. So if you're

  306. not covered by the blood, you're exposed. You have because

  307. it is your will that He wants you to willingly submit.

  308. He has given you free will. He has made all

  309. these things available, but he has given you free will.

  310. That's the difference between you and the heavenly angels. They

  311. have no choice. Twenty four to seven. Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy,

  312. He's righteous he's worthy. That's all they do. But you

  313. He has given the will, the freedom of choice by

  314. you choose because they are said, yeah, we did carnality,

  315. till your neighbor say, don't be cornal. You have to

  316. make a transition, not just in your personal life. When

  317. even those situations come, when you start panicking, that means

  318. you are in the fleshly mood. But you see, he's

  319. giving you the ability to transition. You can translocate. You

  320. may be standing right here but in the spirit. But

  321. after all, he tells you, whatever you see in the flesh,

  322. it's already establishing the spirit. So when those situations come

  323. at you, and that that says I'm going to die,

  324. it is your own tongue. What you confess, you shall decree,

  325. it shall be yourself. You will have what you say.

  326. Life and death is in the power of the world. Yes,

  327. but you have to learn to apply. It's not just

  328. enough to know it.

  329. Apply it.

  330. So when those situations come, apply the proof of purchase

  331. is there when the devil.

  332. Is telling you you're not qualifying.

  333. Get it back off, apply it? What to it to

  334. your car, and you will be on playing home. What

  335. is yours? As I before saying something the idea, I

  336. want to know any or do you when you know

  337. something is yours, when you are sure of your inheritance,

  338. when you're sure of your your, your your, your possession,

  339. that's right. You will possess your possessions. When you're not

  340. sure what is yours? Can I can I have some?

  341. Please? Whodin that? So it is yours?

  342. And you are begging, The princes are walking, and the

  343. servants are riding on the backs of the horses.

  344. Error, how do you correct it? Proof of purchase? The blood.

  345. So the war in heaven even required that the heavenly

  346. hosts proclaim, declare, that is by the blood which you

  347. are shed before the foundation of the earth.

  348. It is what is going to settle this issue.

  349. The blood settles all issues apply the blood. First John

  350. five and seven, Papa says, they are three things that

  351. bear witness in heaven, the Father, the Word, which is

  352. Jesus Christ, and the holy ghosts. And those three are

  353. one the trying God, the god Head, the Trinity.

  354. But here on earth there are three things.

  355. That bare witness, the Spirit, the Holy ghosts, the water

  356. which is symbolic of the Word, and the blood.

  357. The blood of the lamb. These three agree.

  358. About our redemption. So when you have that understanding, nothing

  359. can shake you. Nothing, no one can make you feel

  360. like you're unworthy. The Word says, And there are three

  361. that bear witness in the earth, the Spirit and the

  362. Water and the Blood. And these three agree, just like

  363. the Trinity are one in heaven.

  364. They agree.

  365. These things bear witness Exodus twelve three and thirteen. Exodus

  366. twelve three and then thirteen. See when God told the

  367. children of Israel to mark their lentils with the blood

  368. and their dog posts. It was a sign so that

  369. when the Angel of Death came when God was going

  370. to strike the Egyptians, the children of God needed a

  371. sign and a token which would exempt them. May the

  372. Lord grant us all exemption by the blood. So it

  373. was a sign and a token that the Angel of

  374. Death would record ns and it must be applied over

  375. the lentils. The lentils is representative of your head, and

  376. the doles represent the cross the Christ died on. So

  377. when you have been marked, you are marked so that

  378. plays will pass over you. Disasters will pass over you,

  379. Premature death will pass over you. All forms of evil,

  380. whatever the devil has planned for your life will pass

  381. over you.

  382. Your households, your loved ones.

  383. They shall all receive divine exemption because the blood has

  384. been applied. Insanity, ineptitude of the mind, sicknesses, all of

  385. these the blood can cover.

  386. It is efficacious. But if you don't know it you

  387. can apply.

  388. It. Is not just enough to know it and believe it,

  389. but you must enforce it. Apply the blood. For with

  390. the heart the man believes right onto righteousness. But by

  391. the application or the enforcement of the scripture, the word,

  392. which is the confession that we make at the altar

  393. of the Word, that the enforcement of that which is

  394. written gives your deliverance and your salvation. So until you

  395. enforce it, until you speak it. But how are you

  396. going to speak it when you don't know it? What

  397. are you going to say when the enemy comes against

  398. you and you don't know what the word says? When

  399. you can't say it is written? Why is your proof

  400. of purchase? Ask your neighbor, where is your proof of purchase?

  401. Where is the proof of whose you are? Hebrews nine

  402. and twelve, Hebrews nine and twelve. And I'm going to

  403. end with that. Neither by the blood of goats and calves,

  404. but by his own blood. He entered in once into

  405. the Holy Place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. Turn't

  406. to your neighbors, say your redemption is eternal. It is not seasonal.

  407. It is not when you have God is pleased with you,

  408. or you have done something extra. There's nothing that you

  409. can do. First of all, it is free. All you

  410. have to do is believe and confess.

  411. That's all.

  412. That's your end of the Again, there's nothing that you

  413. can do ex show with the God going and say, oh,

  414. as for this one, he deserves it. All your righteousness

  415. is as what There's nothing you can do, but He

  416. gives it freely. But you must know it in order

  417. to apply it, to enforce it. The blood of the

  418. lamp is proof of precureus. Redemption only comes through and

  419. buy the blood. Through the blood, you obtain forgiveness of

  420. your sins. Through the blood, you obtain power. The blood

  421. has power, It has power to cleanse you. When you're

  422. marked by the blood, God doesn't see you or your

  423. sins anymore.

  424. The blood washes you white and snow. When you are

  425. his and you.

  426. Are marked by the blood, he says, I will throw

  427. your sins into the sea, or forgetfulness. I will take them,

  428. separate them as far as the east is from the west,

  429. two different directions that are not going to meet. That's

  430. what the blood can do. There's power in the blood. Tension,

  431. they may say, there's power in the blood. The blood

  432. of the sprinkling upon the mercy seat. It neutralizes. There's

  433. something that purpose who said about the spiritual refers to

  434. Jesus Christ as the lamb. He's also the lion of

  435. the tribe of Tudor, but here is depicted as the

  436. lamb because he went meekly, humbly to the cross.

  437. But do you know that of all the animals in

  438. the field, the.

  439. Horse, says, the cows, the wilder beasts, the elephants, the hippos,

  440. all of that.

  441. All the creatures, even human beings, have.

  442. The ability to produce something called antibodies.

  443. Yes, it is like.

  444. A defense mechanism. But of all the creatures in the world,

  445. there's one creature that has the ability to produce so

  446. much antibodies when needed that it becomes immune to a

  447. snake bite. So when they're looking for the blood to

  448. develop antibodies, guess which creature there is.

  449. It's the lamb.

  450. Of all the animals God created, the lamb's blood has

  451. the potential of the ability to produce so much antivenom

  452. it neutralizes the effect of the poison in the venom.

  453. So they tend to draw lambs blood to use for

  454. anti venom medication. That is in the natural and scientific,

  455. but even in the spirit. God chose a lamb to

  456. neutralize the works of the devil in your life, and

  457. he tells you all you have to do is apply it.

  458. But you choose not to apply. You choose not to

  459. know about it. So what do you want God to do?

  460. He loved you so much, he killed his son, he

  461. shed his blood, and that same blood you can enforce

  462. to get your deliverance and your salvation, and that same

  463. blood neutralizes whatever the enemy has planned for you.

  464. In the spirit and even in the natural.

  465. Go and get bitten by a snake, and let them

  466. find a lamb who has been bitten, and you find

  467. the antibodies enough in there to save your life. He

  468. has given you something parallel to compare with, to just

  469. make it very present in your mind that the lamp

  470. and what the lamb has.

  471. Done in your life.

  472. I don't know about you, but I want to give

  473. God thanks for the blood of the lamb. Oh, come

  474. on now, I want to give God thanks for shedding

  475. the blood of this only becauden Son. I want to

  476. give God thanks for the life of Jesus Christ. I

  477. want to give God thanks for what Jesus Christ did

  478. on the cross. If you're going to do it, do

  479. it well, because if anybody else walks in here, if

  480. a celebrity walks in here, you'd be all about that,

  481. all up in their face. We're talking about the King

  482. of Kings, the Lord of Lord, the one who shedth blood,

  483. the one who's black can neutral life, the thanks of

  484. the devil in your life. The one who's blood, when

  485. you get to know about, can save you, bring your

  486. deliverance and your salvation.

  487. Today.

  488. I don't want to present to you. If you're here

  489. and you don't know about this lamb, the Lamb of

  490. God that is seated on the mercy Sea, I come

  491. to tell you there's nothing you can do to earn it.

  492. He gave it freely. It is a gift if you

  493. don't know him, in the pardon of your sins, because

  494. that's what his blood does. It erases your sin. All

  495. you have to do is accept and declare profess it,

  496. Confess it. You believe with your heart, and you confess

  497. with your mouth, that Jesus Christ is the son of

  498. the Living God, and you shall be saved. You are redeemed,

  499. You are eternally scripture says it. If the scripture is lying,

  500. I'm lying. You are eternally sealed. If you don't know

  501. him in the pardon of your sins, I invite you

  502. to come. Jesus Christ died on the cross for you

  503. so that you will be saved.

  504. You will be.

  505. Marked, sanctified by his blood, so that there will be

  506. a passing over, so that when the enemy comes against you,

  507. you have a standard to raise. I don't know what

  508. else you want. I don't know how else he can

  509. prove to you how much he loves you. Is there

  510. anybody here who hasn't accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord

  511. and savior. Come, don't worry about what you have on

  512. and who's sitting next to you. See, on the day

  513. of accountability is going to be you and God. He's

  514. going to tell you. Reverend Goodford told you at ten

  515. minutes to twelve about the blood and how it can

  516. work for you, and what it does.

  517. For you, and you didn't accept.

  518. See, I am by this washing your blood off my hands.

  519. I don't want to be accountable. But when you have

  520. heard his voice, heard not your heart come. You don't

  521. know when Christ is coming, if it's going to be

  522. in the next five minutes, or if it's going to

  523. be the next hour, if it's gonna be the next day,

  524. if it's gonna be the next month, year, decade, millennium.

  525. You don't know. Nobody knows.

  526. But that's one thing that you can be sure of.

  527. If you accept him, believe in your heart, and confess

  528. with your mouth, you are marked. You have proof of

  529. purchase that he paid for you, and you are his.

  530. And when he comes in, he's gonna say she is mine,

  531. he's mine, that one's mine, that one's mine.

  532. Let's go. And if you are not marked by his blood.

  533. You got the check.

  534. I just told you about it, but you refuse to

  535. cash it, that is your issue. If you don't know

  536. him in the partner of your sins. I invite you

  537. to come. Come now, listen. I always make this analogy.

  538. It's like buying insurance. For those of you that have cars.

  539. When you're paying that insurance perium is painful. It's let

  540. me hear your notes. You'll pay it in the whole year.

  541. You won't even get a scratchinah shit.

  542. Oh. But the day you get an accident.

  543. And you are able to call your insurance company and say,

  544. crash it, move my fune's here. If it's in a

  545. really bad shay, they say they've totaled it, and they

  546. tell you what do you want You want a new car?

  547. Or do you want to us? What do you want

  548. us to do? That insurance premium that you paid, that's

  549. the benefit. If you never have an accident, you think

  550. it's a waste. But the day you have an accident,

  551. you know the value. Same thing. You might think that

  552. I'm just talking and this mic is it even necessary?

  553. Give my life to Christ? But I do have to

  554. walk up here and do all of this. But the

  555. day of accountability, when you face God and he says,

  556. but before I told you about Jesus Christ and this,

  557. he gave you a chance.

  558. He wrote that check you used to catch it.

  559. You can't say, okay, godait, let me go back to

  560. earth real great too late. Now is the time the

  561. day that you hear my voice hard and not your heart.

  562. Now is the time. You don't know when he's coming.

  563. You don't know where you're going to be held accountable

  564. for what you have heard. It's not enough to just

  565. hear it. You must act on it. If you haven't

  566. accepted him.

  567. Come.

  568. He came all the way, left his glory, left his throne,

  569. to come and.

  570. Die for you.

  571. And you don't even have the gratitude to say, you

  572. know what, if you will do all of that for me,

  573. The least I can do is yield my will, because

  574. He's given.

  575. You free will.

  576. The least I can do is, like Christ, I choose.

  577. You must choose even to praise him worship him. You

  578. must choose, because I often see a lot of you

  579. are praised and worship is going on, or you're on

  580. your phone, or you're whispering to your friend when it's

  581. time to give him his glory. You think your alarm

  582. woking up this morning. Let me go ring an alarm

  583. in the mortuar and see how many of them wake up.

  584. Let's go to the mortuary right now, settle alarm and

  585. see how many of them will get up.

  586. It's not your alarm.

  587. Asantie says something we need more, Arenda, what that will

  588. will you.

  589. So when you open your eyes.

  590. In the morning, sure, while you're at do, says Grace

  591. favorites in his head, in his favor there's everything you need,

  592. everything you need for this daily life.

  593. All he wants you to do is acknowledge him and yield.

  594. I invite you to come. Don't worry about anyone. Listen

  595. on that day, your friends. You can't say, oh, Craig,

  596. who I was waiting for quikup? I was waiting for

  597. a do so we go together. I was one where

  598. you stand in it or be up. Even twins they

  599. don't come at the same time, one follows the other.

  600. But you are so unique.

  601. No two people in this world eight point seven billion people.

  602. No two people have the same fingerprints. And you think

  603. God doesn't know about you if you took that much

  604. time to make you unique, he said. Even the hairs

  605. on your head are numbered. This morning, when you combed

  606. your hair, maybe hair number two hundred and thirty.

  607. Two fell out. God knows, But you don't even know.

  608. All you know is your comment. You threw it away.

  609. God knows which numbered hair that fell out this morning, and.

  610. He's able to replace it. That's not got word to.

  611. Yes, that's how much he cares for you.

  612. Come because.

  613. If you don't use your will, you'll give an account

  614. for it, and your blood will not be required of me,

  615. because I've told you, and I've told you who you

  616. are and where you get your identity, and that there's

  617. a proof of purchase, that he purchased your life. He

  618. paid the price, he made atonement. It's the only thing

  619. that can reconcile you to God, your creator.

  620. Is there anyone?

  621. Is there?

  622. Anyone?

  623. Don't worry, don't worry about anything. No, listen all the

  624. people looking at you. I'd rather be in heaven with

  625. whatever I have on than be here or being in

  626. hell with all my fine clothes and well and yet

  627. grand thats you agree anyway, Don't worry about what you're wearing,

  628. don't worry about what say anything. Each man must work

  629. out his salvation with fear for yourself, you and God.

  630. You must get to know him, have the experience of

  631. who he is for yourself. Not what your mother said,

  632. not what your father said, not what your friends and

  633. your siblings, no what reverend said. I have my own experience.

  634. I've got my shake, and he has forgiven me, and

  635. he has allowed me to study here today.

  636. So when you hear me, I know where I'm coming from.

  637. Or you think I was born with a call out one.

  638. Yeah, m hmm. Even my father said, it's I if

  639. I didn't know there was good I knew this one

  640. about my children, this one like your malehamba. Let me

  641. tell you when I came back from America, what I want.

  642. My father is talking.

  643. Something that mean. My father said, my friend and I

  644. will go back to her. But look what I got

  645. us that.

  646. I have it this evidence I piers that in nineteen

  647. ninety or something like that. Way back some of you

  648. weren't born. Yeah, I thought I was all that. I

  649. thought I was going to Hollywood. When I tell the story,

  650. my daughter laughs, thought I was going to Hollywood. Share swag. Daddy,

  651. God said, hell judging in Like a good parent, you

  652. allow you to fool. After a while has to discipline you.

  653. Those of you have children. Stop don't touch it, hey,

  654. Can I tell you to stop? Don't touch it?

  655. Hey? Jack? Won't he.

  656. Then next time he's going to touch it, he remembers,

  657. cheer every now and then you need us back in.

  658. That's what a good parent does. Don't wait till you

  659. have to be whipped into shape. Come, I'm closing.

  660. It is time.

  661. M hm. He can come any day. No man knows

  662. all those profs are doing. In November, the world is

  663. going to abah. They say they look to see.

  664. Only God knows.

  665. But he's giving you chance after chance after chance. When

  666. are you going to reason up? When are you going

  667. to apply wisdom and say you know what? Listen, the

  668. Bible says, sufficient onto the day are the troubles. There's

  669. enough trouble on today. Why do you want to add

  670. what's gonna go tomorrow, next week? If it comes today?

  671. That said, if it.

  672. Doesn't come an he allows you another day.

  673. Laurie, hallelujah, But don't enter another day not knowing what

  674. side you're on. It is not go shable. If you're

  675. not gathering, you're scattering. There's no say it's a good Christian.

  676. He said, I'd rather you wear God lookwarm, because look

  677. warm you spit you out a double minded presence? What unstable? No,

  678. Let your A, B A and your neighbor live. You

  679. don't want to impair you got somebody at least who knows. Okay,

  680. this one you made it. You chose, Yes, you chose

  681. you exercise your choice. Why are you sitting down? Are

  682. you choosing not to accept Christ? Because you know that's

  683. the only thing that would take you to hell, that

  684. sends to help you along. But the reason why your

  685. soul will end up in hell is because you didn't

  686. accept Jesus Christ. That is what takes you to hell.

  687. Don't let nobody fool you. You hear it, you hear it,

  688. hear it, don't accept it. You are charting your path

  689. with all your swag. You're walking towards the fire. At

  690. some point you fall off the cliff. There's no redemption.

  691. You don't get to come back. I hope church, those

  692. of you who are saved, we're praying because this is

  693. the most important part of the service. This is where,

  694. after all the Word, after all everything, this is what matters,

  695. whether they have received it and applied it. It's not

  696. enough to hear it. Don't just be hearers of the word,

  697. but what doers of the word apply your faith? Because

  698. faith without works is what and without faith? Are you

  699. pleasing God this morning? If you haven't accepted Jesus Christ,

  700. are you pleasing him this morning? Are you doing what

  701. pleases him? If you're not, it is up to you.

  702. But it's a choice that you're making.

  703. For the last time.

  704. Anybody else, anybody else, anybody else. Let Heaven bear witness

  705. today that you heard the word of God. You were

  706. given the opportunity, and you made the choice. If you're saved,

  707. stand up on your feet and give God some glory

  708. because I'll see you in heaven.

  709. Come on, open up your mouth and give him praise.

  710. Thank him because we're gonna meet in heaven.

  711. Thank him. Give him praise for.

  712. Your salvation, for your redemption. Come on, open up your mouth.

  713. You can't just clap your hands without making a sound.

  714. There's a toad, and give him praise. He's worthy.

  715. If the angels do that, all they do is singing

  716. on Tiffany, he's worthy, He's good.

  717. They don't even talk to God. They talk about God,

  718. and that generates the glory.

  719. Cloud generate some cloud up in this place by a

  720. noise to make let him know your grateful sting

  721. Hallelujah.
