12+1 Core Values: Kingdom-Minded | Elder Wong Kien Yiak

You're listening to a message to go from at church.

We hope this message will light up your day.

Do you want to talk about kingdom minded? Kingdom minded?

Kingdom mind minded, king the minded? X Chapter two was

for these sixes, so continued daily in one court in

the temper, breaking bread from house to house. They eat

their food with gletless and simplicity of heart, So being

kingdom minded. Friends, I know we talk about kingdom minded. Yes,

I understand. You know it's all about God's kingdom and

we have to think about it. Yes, sort off quite true.

But X Chapter two reminds us that continuing daily in

one court daily, there has to be a habit being

kingdom minded. There must be a habit in your life.

There must be a routine in your life. The greatest

routine for any disciple of Christ is to have is

to have a quiet time.

Come on to have our quiet.

I know it could be challenging for some, all right,

but it's good for us to start somewhere on. Friends,

Please don't compare yourself to someone who has been doing

the quiet for the longest time, who's doing two hours

and you're like, oh, I remember one time I heard

the leader say, although you know this year two year,

two seven, I want to spend more time with the Lord.

I said, great, what you want to start. I want

to start at five am in the morning.

Five year.

I will spent two hours so by time seven I

can get ready to do the work. First day, how

many of day one? The first day is always very

excited one, right, but it's the day too, and day

three and subsequently after that, friends, you know, the motivation

goes down after that because once the motivation goes out

the window, next it's just about commitment. This is my marriage.

I don't know what I'm talking about marriage here, but

is there someone getting married this year? Okay, cool, this

is my marriage. I was given the privilege to conduct

a wedding last Saturday for one of the leaders from

ex London and h very good.

Uh ceremony.

It was beautiful and no, I just said, you can

only do this because of currency exchange.

Pounds is really nice to use in Malaysia. Yeah.

So they had a beautiful wedding in Purdu, you know,

and stuff like that. They have they have a thoughtful

dessert in between the ceremony.

They got kui.

They have five people drawing your portraits for you and

stuff like that.

No pressure, right, no pressure.

They have all these things and stuff like, I say that, well,

as much as all this is fantastic, it really looks

really nice on Instagram and photograph. How many of you know,

we don't live on photograph, right, we don't leave or

what nice words we put out our journal. Right, it's

all about commitment after that. And you know they were

at their wedding vows. I'm telling you friends, it's so long.

The guys portion was two page a five paper. The

girls was three page a five paper. Like, I hope

you remember. I hope you remember all that you have written,

because all that you have written could be sounded really good, right,

Because one of them I think, I think the girl

is a fan of J promise to appreciate all the

J and Super Judior music.

I went like, wow, but there's a high calling. There's

a high calling.

But anyway, what I'm trying to say, here's this that

I think many times we we we we put nice

things on our journal, right, but being Kingdom miner is

not putting that I got to be Kingdom miner. Therefore

it's a nice slogan on the wall. So Exchapter two

says that there contrying daily one occord. It's a lifestyle,

it's a habit. Is the kingdom a habit in your life?

Come on, it's God's kingdom, his way he's living. He's

lost part of your life. So what is the kingdom?

For the kingdom to exist, they must be a king.

It must be a king. You must be someone in authority.

No kingdom can exist exists without someone in authority. Right

you play games before online games and stuff like that, there

has to be someone in authority. You manage the resources,

so someone's in charge. So who's in charge of your life?

Right now?

We talk about the kingdom, we talk about God's kingdom.

So who's really in church? Because sometimes even as a church,

the temptation is that our program is more king than

the king of kings. Sometimes as a church, sometimes our house,

our church members or church partners is more in authority

than God himself. Be very careful, because there must be

a king that we surrendered with submit to.

Then it must be someone you submit to.

Unfriends, in your life, in your journey as a believer,

if we don't submit to the Lord, then we have

we have a problem. Sometimes, can I just say this.

Sometimes we can even take God's word and the word

is change it for our own comfort. Come on, twist it,

you know when you know, I believe that Christians do

get angry.

All right, we do get upset.

We do get disappointed before and some in a miss

of the disappointment. In the miss of our disappointment anger, right,

have we we try to look, you know, for scripture

that suits our feelings? Have we look at those scripture

that that try to like the Lord is my avenger,

so that you know love please, you know, rain down

something and something. We look for scripture sometimes to word

is to justify our behavior. We look for scripture something

to justify our behaviors and get a wife argument and

the husband's use that wife, submit to your husband.

It's not about that's kind of submission.

If we don't use that to tweets to turn the

words for your own benefit, we don't.

So is there a king all your emotion? Come on?

Oh you're finding all your resources? Someone said that you

know all that we have right now? We are just stuwards.

No matter how much money we have with our bank,

none of us here can bring it after God causes home.

We're living for another generation. So in other words, it's

trying to explain that we are just steward of the

resources that God has given us.

But many times you say it's all mine. Forget about missions.

So the team that went out last I think it

was Saturday, right or two weeks ago? Anyway, to do

all our team right, you went for mission trip. You

took time off from your busy schedule. Saturday's is your

only time you could rest, refresh, not't have any church activities.

But you chose to give it up for the Lord.

You chose to sow it into the kingdom. So you

rant you're recognizing that God is also the lot of

your time, so that must be a king. Secondly is

this is that in every kingdom there must be laws

that governed. It cannot exist without laws, like for the kingdom, friends,

for any country to exist, they must be rules and regulation.

You must have one. If you go to Singapore, I

believe that you cannot part hit in. You have to

reverse park. I do believe it. You come to Malaysia,

you can put anywhere you want, with or without lines.

Right anywhere you can find a place to put your car,

you can park right in Singapore. You can't do that,

but there are rules and regulation that governs the country.

Friends.

The question is this is that in the Kingdom of God,

you know the rules and regulation in how God operates,

God's economy, how he operates. The Bible says in Hebrew

chapter eleven, verse six. Without faith is impossible to please him.

So one of the things you must have in the

Kingdom of God is faith. It's faith. It is faith.

You must have faith in the Kingdom of God.

But many times we can come to a place whereby

we know the law exists, but we don't even.

Have faith to believe, faith to believe.

If I would ask EXEMONI again, would you go to

another building project? See face, I don't know. I could

see theself, the leadership, your life. It's okay. We rather ran.

If I asked you to do another building project for

the Lord again, you you went. You know what you

went through for the first one. To go to it

for the second time. It is hard, but you must

have faith. When you grow a church or anything that

people leave you. So it felt so disappointed, not because

they live in a good way. They live not in

a pleasant way. Something It hurts you so badly, but

you must have fifth in people again. So you must

you must come to a place whereby the keynot of

what exists with rules, which is the Bible, the Word

of God. But many times this is what happens.

Friends.

We assume that we know how God operates, and we

assume that we know how God operates. For example, when

you got safe receive Jesus into your heart. Then the

next week you come to church. We assume that you're

not the worship just because other people lift up their hands.

You just follow right the songs up there with the lyrics.

You you sing along, but you may not have the

fullness of understanding what you're singing about. So it comes

offering type and offering. You see the bad pass you by.

Then people give you just put a token, you put

something into it. Now you can start off like that,

but you're not supposed to stay in that understanding. You're

not supposed saying that. That understanding's supposed to the way

it allow God to speak to you. Help you to

understand why He commands that, why he instructed that, Why

he encourages you to worship, why he encourages you to sew,

why he encourage you to serve because many times we

don't know and summon me a.

Lot of assumption.

It is hard to apply for any permit in Malaysia,

is very hard until unless you go to the process,

you understand, Ah, there is a way to go about it.

So many times we just assume a lot of things.

We assume that the church has to be big, but

the law assers to start a small church and eight

percent of the churches in Malaysia are lesser than fifty people.

We assume that every pastors are like Superman, only to

find out that majority of that are struggling, not with

the morality is because they'll be serving week after week

some passes I we found out in our conversation they

are so burnout, so burned out, week after week, no break,

from Monday to Sunday, every day serving no break.

See, we must have the understanding.

Friends, although we know the law, but sometimes you just yeah,

I know, I know the word, but we don't go deeper.

We don't go and apply it. Only when you apply

again to see results. So therefore, in Janue September twenty

seven to training, it's it's God created man in his

own image, in the image of God. He created him.

Both male and female created them. Friend, God created you.

He's the one that fashion you. He knows you by name, word,

training it. God bless you, Bless them, He said to them,

being full and multiplied, being full and multiply, feel the earth, subduity.

Have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the

birds of the air, over every living thing that moves

on the earth. God has given his instructions to each

and every one of us. He has given instruction each

and every one of you. He has encouraged you. He

has instructed you. Friends, there's a way to live your life.

But sin and the mankind. Friends, and we lost dominion

over what God has created. Since and the mankind, and

we have lost dominion over what God has created. The

ability to name every animal friends in the garden, it's

so amazing. If you reach by age fifty one, try

to remember at least half your congregation names are It's

so difficult. One more naming every animore you could I

don't even know how to spell sen animals like the puss.

Huh p L. Could you imagine like to to be

able to name to able to.

Know what's right and wrong, to have communion with God

in the garden, but seen enter mankind corrupted it and

God by no, and they had a choice by two

escorted out from the garden.

So why is the kind of God important? Friends?

The next like it matters because it's about restoring back

to the original planet God is intended. It's about restoring

back the original plan that God has intended. It's really

about it coming back to the original plan that God

has intended. We based our values on x chapter two

because and except the two friends, there were no sound systems,

there were no big time preachers. There was this only

disciples that believed. Peter put a message tree thousand people

got safe. Only God could have done it. And because

he had faith in the message that he preached. So

we want to come back to the place whds we

believe what God had to say. God has to work

friends in a big stadium as well as a ten

member church. Come on, God has to work friends in

the auto in front as well, and as well as

in the hospital.

Ward.

God has to be real friends in a big church

as well as your study room. It has to be real.

So it's about restoring back what the of your guys attended.

It's not just about our salvation. Come on, it's not

just about your salvation. I think in your journey, friends,

if you've been with Christ for almost ten years, you've

heard all the message that raised to preach on a Sunday.

You've heard everything.

Really, the question is not what have you not heard?

The questions what are you? What are you doing with

what you have heard? The question that has always been

what are you doing with what you've heard? It's not

just about your salvation, It's about your sonship.

It's about discipleship.

Because only sons and daughters multiply, so salvation is the beginning,

is the beginning to a sonship the moment you accept

Christ into your heart, there's step number one. But the journey, friends,

the journey after that is that God wants his sons

and daughters to bring his kingdom on earth. Come on,

and that's the reason why. Friends, wherever you go, I

pray that people will see that you bring a different

atmosphere into the room.

I'm not sure whether you're there. You bring a different

light into the room.

Your conversation is different, the way you see things is

slightly different. I'm not saying different for different says. Okay,

people say it's blue, the sky is blue. No, no,

the sky is dark blue pantone color coat. It's not

about their friends. It's not just different for different says.

But you bring a different perspective into your conversation. Have

you ever ever entered a room before people say there's

something different about you. There is something different about you.

Some of us may or may not realize it. But

I want to let you know the moment you accept Christ,

you do carry God's.

Light into you.

And you do you do carry God's.

Light in you.

I'm not sure I showed it before here or now

I remember sharing it, but her.

And I first heard it.

That there was a there was two Christians got into

the car. In the car there was two people who

practice uh fortune telling fortune telling, two other people who's

Christian in the car, and the other fortune teller was

trying to read the fortune of the Christian. Basically, can

see in the spirit the kind you know, the person

and stuff that. And this was to say that you

know that I could read everyone except for the two Christians.

I can't see a single thing. And the person say

what you see? Oh, I saw in my with the

spiriture eyes was a bright light a bright light.

I couldn't see beyond the light.

This is so strange that happened been before, so strang

And the person that have explained, yes, that's only because

there are believers in Christ. They're Christian and that's why

you cannot see. You can't see into the future. Only

got holds the future. I want to let you know, friends,

you bring a different like you. You may not, I'll say,

it's not something like, uh, you have this funny goose

bump you go into the room every time you just

begin to just roll down speaking tongue. No, friends, you

do bring a difference into the room. That's why it's about.

It's actually bringing His Kingdom on the earth. I cann't

feel with love, righteousness, holiness, goodness and many more so

when you walk into the restaurant, for example, two people

say that there's a difference in you. When you walk

into the meeting room, do people say that, oh, this guy,

this holy holy person coming, don't do I don't know

what they say about you, Fetz.

I remember me and my wife wherever we go, uh.

They we just have to say the majority of the time

this the comments that we always get. There's something different

about both of your something different about both of your

Then we just it's not your clothing, it's not your specs,

it's not the way you look. It's just something different.

The way the way you carry.

Yourself is a bit different.

We went to the restaurant once and there was fourth

there was authors there, and we just ate our lunch

and stuff like that, and we're paying at the counter.

The first thing they always trike conversation with us is that,

are you guys from the creative industry? I say, yes, off,

because if we speak every Sunday, so we are a

big creative Ah. I say that we are part of

church and you know we are constantly looking at me

our design. Yes, you're in the creative renovation, a power

of creative.

Yeah.

So and they say if you're sort off, you're sort

of in the creative industry. Yeah, because the way you

guys speak, the way you carry yourself, it's just it's

a bit different.

Don't describe it. We can only say it's God because

it's opened the doorway.

And my wife is very quick, No, you're from a church,

and if you're happen to be around and come up

with and just check us out and you want. I

want to let you know that's that's that's the reason

why sometimes God places you come on, places you in

a place whereby somebody you.

Think that God, what am I doing here?

He puts you in your office for a reason, to

be the light that thought at your office, right for

you to raid it the light, the kingdom light in

your office.

But many times you like the height light.

Oh not me, Lord right, Yeah, the earth will benefit

if the Kingdom of God spreads and take the dominion

over all the earth. We have to be convinced, friends,

that the Kingdom works. We have to be convinced that

the Kingdom works. We have to be convinced that God's

word is true. It thus change his life. We have

to be convinced, friends that if he says, he will

see to pass. I think many times your journey, friends,

I think we struggle with being convinced. We struggle with

houses having full confidence in God's words. But until unless

you put ourselves in a position right, we're always going

to second out God's word. But if God is all

that you have, friends, don't you think that you'll be

convinced If God is all that you have?

Don't you think that you be convinced.

When you have to sit down and counsel someone who

is going to really bad marriage. You know it is

the Lord that can turn hearts around. Someone's timinally ill.

Only God can see them true. You ever get a

chance to go visit people in the hospital and pray

for someone right your words, Really it's.

Not much.

Your but goswel you can declare God's promise over the

person's life. I remember when just before my mom passed away,

and help my mom's hands and just read some string

the tree to her and just encourage her. See, Mom's

gonna be all right. The Lord's your shepherd. Don't worry

you watch our family. Don't worry about us. See God's words.

Only if once once you know God's words, all that

you have friends, you just you're.

Just convinced that you will come true for you see

the kingdom of God. Friends, It works because we.

Are convinced right the next time. So why it's kingdom

mindness all about? It's about bringing us kingdom on true

sons and daughters. Come on, it's about bringing Gods kingdom

to sons and daughters. Sons and daughters, and what do

you mean by that? Many times people want to do

the work of the Lord. To many many people want

to do the work of the Lord. However they do

not want to be discipled. It is hard, It is

very hard. Given the choice, friends, given the choice, if

there's a choice open to your some of.

You may not want to come to this place.

Because you know who wants to drive all the way

to some money in front of uni. Given the choice, true,

it's okay, you can say yes, that's me, all right,

if only passesive who hear God's voice, given clearer right,

given the choice, given the choice, right, But it takes

sense and daughters, because you know the calling of God

all this church and that's why you believe in it.

But again it's because you're discipled. But if you're not discipled, right, friends,

what happens after that?

You go like you're.

Constantly looking for something else to meet the need immediately.

So recently for ex church, we started again the ministry

called Dream Malaysia.

So Dream Malaysia. We get to meet a lot of pastors,

so love.

If you didn't know the history of the churches in Malaysia, right,

the concentration of the church has always been in Pinang

k l and JB.

Pinang kl and JB.

Hardly you hear any ministry who wants to start in

East coast like one time cut anybody from quarter Baro

here got the baro, noqutter barrel, call it Garu here,

anybody from Collaton garu here? There is there is coast right,

hardly right. We know of a church in Quarter Baro

that when chue.

For split.

Four times adam church is going, it broke up, broke

up and broke up.

Things.

I'm not doing very well, it's course, but we can't say, friends,

that the church is driving just because acts is driving.

So it's not easy to go to East coast. It's

not easy if you were to drive the quarter Baro. Friends,

if you're to drive the quarter Baro, it's about ten

hours ten hours journey. I think it's about their ten

hours journey. So recently we we went to Quarter Baro

to meet with some leaders over there. We left sha

Alam at five forty five in the morning. We got

to go Musang like almost a trick. Got the way

through about one forty five. Then our car broke down.

Our car broke down in the middle of nowhere, I'm

not sure in the middle of nowhere when you can't

break down.

The first thing you ask got why.

Why God you call us to go to this place

to minister when our weaker is not in the tip

top condition. It's different, you know, It's it's like driving

the money. If you can't break down, you can call

someone here to when my car broke down, can you

come and help me?

Then the car will come after an hour.

But in God Musam this place called Musang, if your

car break down, you call any of the fers to

help you.

You're the way for eight hours? Is that far? Carboart

the middle of nowhere? And I'm like, I felt so bad.

I was the driver. It was really difficult. And you know,

in the middle of really like Oi state is just

the rouler.

It's a stark difference the moment you exit Baha you

enter Clantern. It's a big difference of development. Fall lane

become one lane. The kind of situation God came to

for us because the place where we broke down hungrey

meters less and hungry meters There was a workshop the

sock off could fix on us for a very cheap price,

and heard off.

We measure to get our car up there?

Do what we need to do drive back that brother,

Can I say, please, this this part of the radiator

or the piping just changing for me only to find

our friends. Only by degrees to God, we're going back

to KO two adults radiator housing hosts was as well,

and see what's gonna say, drive m It's not that,

that's not the point. The point here is this that

it takes sens and daughters really to go to a

place whereby you're not comfortable with, to be ten to

travel hours in a car in a car waving traffic jam,

of all days, of all these I wantage of all

these friends. If you know the route to Clanton, you

had the past shoot a tunnel to get highlands. Right

now that very day four lace become one lane, basically

the only share one tunnel to go in and out

from KO two, saying, Lord of all these, but first

it takes sends the daughters to be obedient.

So we've got to Clanton. Friends. We got over there.

We talked to the passes over there, We talked to

the leaders over there. They say, please come, please come

to East Coast because not many people come to East Coast,

and something they share with us, the story I'm gonna

share this with you.

They are smaller teratures.

So a lot of people grow up in small churches, right,

but because of the locality, they don't have lot university

at that place. They will come to the city here

to study. The moment when the children come to the

city here to study, what happened is that some of them.

Don't go to church. Don't go to church. And the

pastor was just.

Sharing this with us, sharing this with us and just

saying that, you know what breaks our heart. We invested

eighteen years into the youth life from infant all the

way to secondary school, being with us, only to fund

out much later this individual don't even want to go

to church anymore. Say it breaks our heart because that

you know that we felt like we're just pouring water

into a job that's leaking. It breaks our heart because

sometimes we don't even have partners to work with. The

word is to minister to this individual that comes to

city to study. So we say this that you know,

could we partner with you and help you because your

youth is our youth and our youth is your youth.

Now we are we are even asking people if you're

from a smaller town we will pray together and see

whether the job opportunity back at your hometown to be

able to begin to even sew back in the look

at you show over there, friends, it's not that easy

to us. It only takes us and daughter's friends the

next light. We don't remain as she went by. We

must mature to become sons and daughters. Maturity is you quiet.

Kingdom.

Mindedness is about maturity. Maturity is required. Maturity is requiet

to understand God's kingdom. When we are young, friends, we

only eat what we want to eat. McDonald's seems to

be the most easiest thing that every parent will find.

You don't eat, just give you McDonald's. Fine, and we

understand that that the situation. However, but when you're older already, friends,

there are some stuff you never eat when you were younger.

Now you tend to take it. Bitter.

God is one of them, right, big root is another one.

Food chat is another one. All these other stuff the

chicken liver is not good for you, All the chicken liver,

all the inners of the cow, or the not ver

goo for your high cholesterol. Right, Sorry, I'm not saying

all this because it takes maturity. It takes maturity, friends.

And when we're younger, fried chicken used to be the inting.

We rush for fried chicken and we love for our

fried chickens and stuff like that.

But we are older.

If you don't notice that me and you're older, you

the first thing you grab right now is more rushtables.

First rather than fright stuff. So my wife recently had.

The liver tested and she was like on the fatter site, right,

So she went on on the change of a diet program.

So in a diet program, friends, she only eat two

meals a day. She lost about seven kg. Because she's

on the diet. I have to be on the diet

as well. Because she's gonna diet, I have to be

on die. So she said that now you have to

eat the way I eat your must eat your lashable first.

I'm like, oh, the same way. It is a vegetarian meat.

This is a vegetarian meat. I mean the cow eat

grasso is vegetarian.

I was sorry.

I'm just I'm sharing this because it takes maturity to

really the way to eat what got put on your table.

Think about it for a moment.

To do homes, to do homes alternate to teach to

look at people's faces when you're teaching guys anything to

add quiet right, and you continue to show the excitement

as a leader. It's all right, Okay. Maybe the next

question you answer fred if you open up your place

or homes and you know that sometimes it feels like

a tornado just to hit your place. You understand the

hair number of the hairs on the floor. This is

I can tell confident to my wife, Dear, the hair

on the floor is not mine. It is not mine,

So therefore I don't really need to vacuum the floor.

You need to benefits. I love.

I love doing housework anyway. I mean it takes maturity.

Can I just see this to be? Sons and daughters?

And many times when God asks you to forgive, be

the bigger brother to forgive. Come on, God, can't be

The Bible says you're the heat another tale, be a

bigger sister to forgive, to let go.

To pray.

I'm not sure what has our challenge be that stop

us from maturing to another level. I'm not sure what

your child has been that stop you to mature to

another level. But whever the challenge is right now, I

pray that you find strength. That's why you go back

to better Number one. The Holy Spirit is your helper.

Ask God for strying to let it go so that

you can mature to another level. Because if not, what

happens is that you remain where you are and help me.

If you know that you may look cute and good

right now, but it ain't going to help you when

you go to the hospital. I share this with people.

You know, when I was in the hospital when during

my one of my heart surgery, and uh, I was

given the shaver. I'm gonna get big gross. I just

to stay with me for a while. I was supposed

to shave because you're operated on my body. I was

supposed to shave. Now, if you've never done this before, friends,

that particular shaver, the gift to you has never been washed.

You still see remnants of the other patient. I was

there like looking at it, I'm like, I literally wanted

to cry. I say, look, how that on earth did

I get myself in this place? Then I begin to

think about backtrack, think about the worst that people spoken

of all my life.

I was a class I was really big in size.

One time I met another leader from the church The

first statement the guy said to me was this.

What on earth happened to you?

How can you put on so much weight on first statement,

even before saying hello, how are you?

And stuff?

That first thing come up to you like what happened

to you? You put so much with At the very moment, friends,

I feel like getting angry, like, oh, where's the hello?

Where's the hello? How are you? First?

You commanded my weight there where I came up from

the after my operation on my heart. One other leader

came up to me and just say, what do you

do to yourself? How can you lend yourself in such

a bad position? One Now, if you were the receiving

end of this kind of thing, right, don't you feel

like m.

Don't feel like you?

Just don't you feel like getting angry because you know,

none of us here sign up for an operation, None

of us here this shoot me said I want I

want to have a hot operation. None of ways it happened.

Things happen choice life. Things happened, you understand right. It

takes maturity for you to look at the other leader

go like, oh, well, I guess I didn't eat well,

I guess I didn't exercise. I need to call myself

very well, this is where I am, but I'm thank

god I'm still alive. It takes maturity to overcome some

of this statement spoken all your life and just say

that instead of being angry. That's what Churrean does. Angry, bitter,

get even, And I want to let you know. I

so have a found that the person asks me how

am I doing? How do I get to this place?

Also had a hot operation. I did go up to

the other person just say, brother, I remember when I

met you after my operation.

This is what you said to me.

So I'm gonna ask you the same question, brother, how

do you how do you let up yourself? It's such

a position and it's hat and it has conditions. Wasn't

mind he's a runner? You know, how did you get

yourself to be? I could have done that. I could

have you know, just just it feels really good. Come on,

if you answer, it feels really good sometimes to say

some of these things. But I want to let you know.

But it will not glorify God at all. So it

takes Come on, It takes maturity to become sons and daughters.

Now mark meta chapter five verse for the six or

for the eight if you if you love only those

who love you, what we want is there for that?

Come on, even the crop text collector do that as much.

If you need to do what you like, if you

only do what you like what we want is there?

There is no big true worse forty seven. If you're

the kind, if you're only kind to your friends, how

are you different from anyone else? And this is sometimes

that we would like to do after church service right.

When we go eat together. We always group ourselves together

with our favorite bunch.

And sometimes past the step and look at you all,

just say, guys, there are other new people in the church.

Please justlyed one meal a week only see with other

people and talk to them. Don't just don't get just

get yourself same bunch every week. My wife is very

good at this. Every Sunday and after the church service

they will go for lunch. At every lunch she look

at the leaders, who are they sitting with? If you're

sitting with the same crowd as last week, she will

text them after the after the lunch, maybe next week, sit.

With someone else.

Sit with someone else because someone else needs your time,

someone else needs your encouragement, someone else need your conversation.

Don't only sit with the same bunch of people worse

for the day.

But you are to be perfect, even as your Father

and Heaven is perfect. You are to be mature. The

word perfection is maturity. Salvation is the entry point, studying point.

We must be born again first in the Kingdom of God,

and He gives us the right to become cheuan of God.

But we are not to remain as cheering. We must mature,

and I must mature. The Kingdom mindedness just means our mind,

our field, and committed to see what God's intended in

the beginning and in the end. Kingdom mindedness just means

our mind, our field, and committed to seeing what God

intended in the beginning and the end. And this is

how I'm going to close friends. Kingdom mindedness is just

basically this. This is that all that we do for

our church, all that we do for church really like God.

What is it that you want?

This church doesn't just doesn't belong to the senior pastors.

It belongs to God. It does.

Given the choice, we rather have one location, one service,

given the choice, But God said, no, grow small, so

that more, many more people can be rich. What what's

on God's heart? Really going for missions to a different

language group, it may not be easy. In a month's time,

I think I'll be going to Axophone again for the

church camp. And you know in in Exophone in Xopo Pasajan,

who's the lay pastor over there, minister to the running

refuge every week there about we have about about twenty

of them in our church. In extra poem, he doesn't

speak any of the language. What he does is just

this that he used auto translates, Auto translate into the

language so they could understand. So be coming to church

every week and Pasaca is trying to do his best

to reach out. Maturity, it requires you to do that.

Marturity requires you to do that. Friends, God you brought

up to must be for a reason, and you're here

in this place. There must be a reason. It's not

it's just the one to seas. It's not just to

hear a good message and go back. You've done your

religious duty. There must be a reason why you're here.

I mean, there's so many other churches around, great amazing churches.

But you're here for a reason. We pray to God.

We'll just God see it. Just Germany in your heart

and begin to grown. Chapter six, verse nine to thirteen,

The Lord's prayer. If I heaven Hell, It'll be your name,

your kingdom. Come, Come on your kingdom. Come, you will

be done on earth as is in heaven, your kingdom. Come,

you will be done on earth.

On earth.

And this is what I want to encourage all of

us here. God's Kingdom is not just up in heaven,

it's here on earth. As I close right now in

my extra mountain stage, my prayers, our prayers just is

that from the leader's standpoint, is that number one, we

recognize that God has caught us and placed us in

a marketplace for a reason. Wherever, whichever family you come from,

there must be a reason why you're born the family

while you're studying the school college.

Being kingdom minded. Yeah.

At the same time, friends, it's not just about us alone.

It's about the bigger body. And actually really believe and

actually really believe about helping other smaller churches around Malaysia.

We really believe. In a few months time, you're going

to hear us sharing you all the concept of the loan,

l A and loan. We want to loan back young

working adults into the smaller towns to help the pastors,

the senior pass of a smaller church who's been so

faithful week after week. We know of a church leader

that drives about two hours every Sunday to manage two

different locations.

She's the only one to have a lot of support.

We found out about it.

If we say that we're going to make a trip,

that's to do some assessments, see how to help. There's

the reason why God has given us ex church. We're

not very big, but we are quite subsetual in size.

We have a lot of money, by why would we

have We want to help. There must be a reason

why God has raised so many young people in our church.

There must be a reason why you're here recognizing the

kingdom minded friends take maturity for us to let people go. Yes,

when you're one location, if the church is one location,

you can have all the best worship leader, the best singers,

the best preachers all there. But when you're smaller, friends,

everybody is mobilized. Everyone's mobilized. So we share this to people.

It's like close. We share this to people that wow.

Of the values that we really hold true and it's

a conviction is to be a support to the pastust

fellowship that we are part of in the area. You've

heard before about us the sum rally prayer rally.

It happens at once.

I think quarterly our church has the biggest attendance, not

because we're proud of the attendance.

It's because we truly believe.

Coming around other pastes for other church rallying our people

to come to pray. Some chess will only bring their

pastores and the key leaders. But if we say that

we believe in this Kingdom message from the time when

we were young, we have been such a great support

for this as like close friends. There's the reason why

God places you where it place you, but there also

a big there's also a bigger reason why God gave

us as to be a blessing. If you know our

history of our church for the past thwear in six years,

your tour Malaysia on our own court, we don't expect

the pass us on the local ground that to pay

we'll come with our old costs. We come here to

encourage to sow into your youth ministry to be a blessing.

We truly believe that there's the reason why God caused

us here to be a blessing in Malaysia to release

and we can see this model being replicated even in Botswana.

What's a lesus just thinking? Start the larger service?

Friends, you and I will when you come to this

list of maturity. When resist, Lord, may your will be done,

Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth.

That's it Heaven.

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

that this week is going to be a good week.

I hit for you. God bless
