-
You're listening to a message to go from at church.
-
We hope this message will light up your day.
-
What is God really after? Right? And I think many
-
times God will give us opportunities or use situation all
-
right in our lives to review the condition of our hearts.
-
You must understand it. God will always use what we
-
go through, what the choices that we make in our
-
life right, not what he purposely. God is not the
-
time that really I want to make your life be
-
more miserable. So therefore I'm just gonna show everything on
-
You know, he uses really, he uses the choices that
-
we make right or other people make about us right
-
to reveal It's very important to understand that God wants
-
to reveal the condition of our hearts. Many times I
-
do believe that you know that we think that we're
-
all right, but actually we need a surgery. We think
-
we're okay, Actually we need to go on the diet.
-
We still have clothing or we think they will fit
-
in M size until we go to the retail to
-
realize that we have been promoted from M to L.
-
And you know my redin that we I mean it's
-
true something I can still fit. Bullying muscle all the
-
way until the bottoms of the top. You just try
-
to sucking it and you could, but you could hear
-
the treads all crying out, Please release me. Right, you understand.
-
But many times in life we think that we can,
-
and some of us still have clothing. I know this,
-
I have clothing that we will get back into shape.
-
We will fit it again one day, one day when
-
I we slim down, when you know, when we alter,
-
like Charles, Charles lost so much with right, also lost
-
a lot. Okay, all right, raining meaning winning is perpetuous sleep. Okay,
-
can see see, I know, I know what that trap
-
was there already a red good child. All right, raining
-
is always sleep, right, But it's so in our mind.
-
We still have stuff that we kept and thinking that
-
we could one day we get back to it. But
-
how many of you know that that one day will
-
never come because there is no action, you know what
-
I mean? And in life, God, we'll always use because
-
if we don't know what's a real condition, we've got
-
to build on a very fake foundation. Come on, if
-
we don't know what's the real condition of our hearts,
-
you must at least know where your heart is at.
-
Come on, you must at least know the true condition. Right.
-
If not, you're going to build on a very shaky
-
foundation whereby no matter what we believe in will not
-
stand because of the win and the challenges that will
-
come our way. So God will always use the condition.
-
Why's so important the challenges in our life? We will
-
without the challenges in our life, we will know the
-
real condition. I say that earlier on. But we we
-
think that we're obedient to the lot. I hear the thing.
-
We think that we are obedient. We think that we
-
are following the lot, but actually we're following ourselves. We
-
think that we are fooling the Lord or being the
-
lot just because I'm going sure from scripture off towards
-
not here to anybody, sure sure afterwards. That we think
-
that we are falling, but we are not. That's that's
-
like deception, you know. Friends, we think that we are
-
but we are not. We think that we are in love,
-
but actually we are not. And many times in our life, friends,
-
we live or something. We can get caught up with
-
this thing that I think I'm all right, but actually
-
I really need help. I think I I think I
-
can manage, But actually, friends, none of us get into
-
that just because of one trance, you know what I mean.
-
You don't get into a financi that because of one purchase.
-
Very seldom you get because there's accumulative of stuff not
-
attended to write, the accumulation, accumulation, accumulation of not dealing
-
with the things that God reveals. And if you think
-
after a while that one day, one day, that you
-
would get rid of it, very hard. It's almost like this.
-
Always have a mattress, have a bait frame under your bait.
-
Have you ever noticed that does accumulate? It starts very
-
gentle one, friends, this this tin layer of us. But
-
if you don't attend to it, after a while, have
-
you noticed it becomes like a fur ball after wow,
-
if you know, if you know what I mean, right,
-
it accumulates, It rolls into this small little like cotton
-
ball after the wow. Right, always who rolls under the bit?
-
The who's the one that that spins the thing into
-
the like a like a like a cotton ball? Like
-
you know, I don't know. There's some insects there just
-
make this. But it cumulates because friends, the first time
-
we saw it, we didn't attend to it. Come on,
-
then after a while. Friends, you notice you can make
-
a small little pillow from it. The dust you if
-
you have Father's dyson. You know what I mean. That's
-
that that that that colors you reacumenate. It's so full,
-
you know what I mean? That the transparence container gets
-
filled up with the dust. Not dealing with it. We
-
think that we're all right, can manage okay, one, all right,
-
let me turn you this a couple of scriptures. First
-
sem of the fifteen verse one, first ever fifteen verse one,
-
Samuel said to Saw the Lord sent me to annoying
-
you king over his people over Israel. Now there for
-
hit the voice of the Lord. What's on? Now? The
-
Lord sent me to a none youth king. Instructions clear
-
not come on clear not clear the appointment clear up,
-
very clear, you are mad king. One condition follow God,
-
come on one condition follow the Lord very clear. Worse Two.
-
Then the Lord spoke, Wow, friends, you cannot get a
-
better quieter than this. Think about it many times crying out, God,
-
speak to me. Here's what the Lord had to say.
-
The Lord of whole said, I will punish Amerakites for
-
what they did to issue. How we embushed him on
-
the way when he went up from Egypt. Friends, God remembers,
-
I want to let you know that the true of issue.
-
And they came up from ej They crowd to the Lord.
-
The enemies surround them, friends and wane to let you
-
know that God. God remembers our prayer. He does, although
-
we may think that he takes a lifetime to answer. First,
-
he remembers out cry. He remembers every prayer. After he
-
remembers your challenges. Friends, He doesn't forsake you, leave your Lord.
-
But God remembers. The Bible says worse to say, I
-
will I will punish Americans for what they did to
-
my people. There's some of us say thinking that God
-
might forget that God don't remember, but he does. There
-
comes worse three. Worst three is why it gets even
-
deeper into the discipleship. Now, therefore God that text. Many
-
times we want God to do all the work, and
-
we step in and say we want to give thanks
-
to the Law for what he has done. Right, I
-
would punish their word to say I will punish great
-
thank you Jesus, or doing all the world. No, but
-
you go right now and utterly destroy all that they have.
-
Do not spare them. It goes deeper. Friends, but kill
-
both ah man, women, infant, nursing child, ship camera than donkey.
-
I want you to just look at words tree for
-
a moment. Wish of this part of killing was solved
-
causing the past. God, I agree with you punishing the Amlachites.
-
I do, but this killing of men, okay, men of
-
all want to do? People go to war, right, tries
-
to make right? What to do? Employment right? You go
-
out there the better view you can canela. But Lord,
-
children war, I'm sure there's some for negotiations. Lord, they're
-
so cute to kill. Cannot nursing child? God, come on now, first,
-
it's not about the children. Okay, I'm not, I'm not.
-
I'm not asking you to kill anybody. But it's not
-
about that. But how far will you go with the Lord?
-
Think about it for a moment. What's so valuable to
-
us that we cannot go? And you're already everything with
-
the Lord until he touches the very call? But God,
-
you don't understand. You would think that the children and
-
the nursing child is the one that saw restrive. Saw
-
couldn't overcome God. I can't. I can't kill children. I
-
can't kill nursing child. Right, but what next light next
-
night says this saw attack americites words it he thought,
-
King of Americas. Hey, stuff for Momenta. You would think
-
it's the children will spare because it's so cute. Ma.
-
You would think he's a nursing child because compassion, Ma.
-
But friends, all those are friends. He did not spare. No,
-
he sped King egg, He sped the king. Hey, Salah, salah.
-
Interpretation of devotion here, wrong, interpretation of devotion here, friends,
-
God said kill all the men, women, children and nursing
-
child and all oxen donkeys and stuff like that. But
-
worse nine saw and the people speed again come on
-
and the best ship oxen, fat links, lambs, and all
-
that was good. It looks to me like saw and
-
this entire army was plenty to do an amazing hot pot. Sorry,
-
I saw the oxen, the fat links and the lambs,
-
so I could think about all right, all that was good?
-
That were I really do utterly destroyed. But everything despise worthless.
-
They utterly destroyed. Why expec king again. You know, sometimes
-
when you have victory over an enemy king of friends,
-
it's a certain pride you want. You know, you read
-
it out once in a while. Your trophy you show
-
your guests to come to your house. This is my
-
trophy that you put back in again. We have one
-
of those collections in the house of friends. It's those
-
collection you're just bringing out. You know, I got this wine,
-
don't know from meth and we wherever we shall, we share.
-
Then you just straight out. Then you bring it back
-
in again. We have one of those things that whereby
-
we are sort of proud of, but none I'm not
-
talking about why. I'm talking about some things that we
-
are proud of but never surrendered to the lord. We
-
have some things now that where why we are proud
-
of and never totally surrendered to the Lord. It's hard. Friends,
-
those of us who are married, you understand, those of
-
us who are married, married married couples here, isn't it
-
true that once you're married you don't keep anything from
-
the excess? But uh uh okay, let's go deeper. The
-
author is opened after us. There is a bonfire after
-
us again the bird. Isn't it true? Is it? Friend?
-
It's suddenly like see, okay, don't know. Isn't it true? Friends?
-
It is not friends? Come on, it's not the item
-
you know, come on, it's not that. It's not it's
-
not the item, right. The item could be could be
-
a mark that you really like, okay, all the way
-
to maybe you give you a nice watch or a computer.
-
It's not the item, but it's a memory that teaches
-
that the stuff it's it's a memory. Because there's some
-
things in life, friends, somethings like right you, I mean
-
those so I love always your Maybe you got this
-
question asked before. If I fell into the sea and
-
your mouth found to see, who would you rescue? Huh?
-
I know some people say the both was like a
-
rescue because I can lost him. But some things in life, friends,
-
you're holding on king eggg We have king sometimes in
-
our world we have a king egggag that we're keeping.
-
Where's God's asking us to let go the best? We
-
kept the worst ritual away and so therefore, friends, you
-
think that he will spare at least the children and
-
the nursing child. No, it's the oxen, the lambs and
-
the fatlings. Wasn't God's instruction clear? Very clear? He spoke
-
a radio? Actually, what else? What more does King Saul one?
-
God's voice profer some more? But many times we kept
-
stuff whereas God ask us to release. It's hard to
-
build a a foundation. It's hard to build our Christian
-
world whereby our foundation is very weak. I talk about freedom,
-
and sometimes we want the freedom, want the freedom, but
-
do what to deal with the past? Do not want
-
to deal with the hurt, the pain? Do not want
-
to let go of the choices that we made previously?
-
Is that in the past is in the past, but
-
we want to move forward, but keep having a past attached.
-
It's very hard, friends, and you will open the door
-
whereby the enemy would have a footthall in our life.
-
Just last week at the Mandarine service, a lady came
-
and she came out during the worship in between, came
-
out there just asking for prayer for asking for prayer
-
to deliverance, asking for prayer to deliverance. There were so
-
many doors in the life. It's not just one prayer
-
that'll counting and everything. There's so many things in the life, friends,
-
that she has to let go. She was gang great
-
when she was young. I share this with you because
-
you have to deal with the past and let go
-
of forgiveness, betrayed by family, everything, And she said, successful
-
career woman right now. But I just say she's been
-
looking for she came because first God remembers her cry.
-
I've been looking for a church, and she was there.
-
She's one of the operators that her daughter's one of
-
the operators in one of the businesses that she came.
-
I'm looking for she came to church. Of all places,
-
she came to church. We were there, not by chance.
-
We were there because God calls to be there, and
-
God was remembers people's cry. She came out for prayer,
-
friends and the menu before they did want to cool.
-
From from just a five minute peryer in between her
-
becomes like a twenty minutes. They called in the name
-
of Jesus. Every leguagy could take off ready, God knows.
-
But why we're holding on to friends, what we're holding onto,
-
because what we're holding onto influence this one. It's not
-
just king again, but King again influences. There's a certain
-
pride because we defeated the enemy. There's a certain pride
-
because you know what we kept the best, No, we
-
kept the best, the ship, the ox. Everything that is
-
useless be destroyed. Sounds very legit simple usma God's instruction,
-
all right, It was very clear sauce action was the opposite.
-
He said, go attack, destroy, But Sault said, they're brought
-
them from their medicaid so that people spare the best
-
to come on to sacrifice to the Lord. Your god. Wow, God,
-
you don't understand. I kept all this for you. Very deceptive.
-
Isn't it something that's coming to Chish is the same?
-
I'm going to say it like it is something that's
-
coming to chich because we come to church. Is it
-
for the Lord or just because of religious duty? Because
-
many times you want freedom? But what if you don't
-
deal with it? Friends, what happened is that we're gonna
-
work on very shaky foundation offering our praise by our hearts.
-
Our hearts is not in alignment. That's why, friends, no
-
break through. You do not create a debt because of
-
one purchase of a hambag. There's five hundred thousand, very
-
very rarely, very rarely, friends. It is because of the
-
months of indiscipline, not attending to what's really important. Said
-
with a couple a couple of months ago, going through
-
the finances in messily in debt, I say, look, you're
-
doing the minimum. You know it's crazy today you're doing
-
the minimum on your card. I said, how on earth
-
would you expect to clear if you're just doing the minimum?
-
And many times Cristians that we're just doing the minimum,
-
expecting a break true, expecting God to move reculously to
-
wipe out computer crash, everything get wiped out like a
-
PITPTS load. Right. We think God's gonna move that way, friends,
-
But in actual fact, God said I would crush Americas,
-
but you got to go in and do the work.
-
But if you don't do the work, friends, we're just
-
gonna give the minimum was a minimum as Christian this
-
shop on Sunday show for homes. I'm not knocking anybody down,
-
but I want to pay me for How long would
-
it take for God to move in our hearts so
-
that you and I could experience this the freedom that
-
he wants us to have. How long would we allow
-
allow the choices being about the egg eggs the best
-
of the ship in the first place, God never wanted it.
-
We think God wants this by an actual fact, he
-
wants our hearts. We think God wants this by actually
-
fact he wants our life. Maybe and perhaps friends, we
-
have the wrong image of what Christianity is all about.
-
I was asking the earlier church, I said, pay me
-
a picture of us how a successful pastor looks like?
-
And something said other starts with they must be bored,
-
praise the love, hallelujah. Amen. Right, the body has to
-
be ripped so that you can wear the type T
-
shirts and you show your masters the image, the images,
-
the image, the image. Then after a while, friends, every
-
of them type T shirt boar hated, must whole a
-
nice take away coffee cup. No, not friends, after what
-
we pursued image? Think about that, but we pursue an image.
-
But that's not what That's not what the Lord wants
-
in the first place, because if that's the image, that
-
God will give it. The image in the Bible already
-
like that. No, friends, how we got to minister and
-
become baro? You tell me you can't and we have
-
to tell people. We have to tell some of our pastors. Look,
-
you are a pastor and people are looking up to you.
-
You can't be straight off, topless when you're going to
-
minister on a Sunday. What would they see? You think?
-
What I'm sure share with your friends, what we need
-
to see when they come out? What would the single
-
young girls in the choice to see you on Sunday
-
that all they remember is you being topless in your posting.
-
Had the choices you make. God, I'm sure as honest
-
as I can, because I really want you to understand
-
these friends. God's in struture was very clear, clear, not
-
come on clear, But what happened in between something doesn't
-
add up. And many times you sit down with people
-
say yes, I want to break to and I could
-
do my I gotta do it. But you could do
-
with the massive B two one. If you could do,
-
you master U. If you didn't do, how to have
-
big true next night? The Bible say Isaiah, and that
-
was the teeth isn't as much as this. We would
-
draw near with the mouth on the way with their lips,
-
but have removed their hearts far from me. Draw here
-
with their mouth and draw honor God with their lips.
-
That's why it's called lip service. And not a majority
-
of us, in fact, all of us do not like
-
lip service. Sir. We acknowledge your complain. We'll get back
-
to you soon. The soon never comes, sir, Thank you
-
so much for calling us. All right, if we understand
-
you're going through a frustration, but we promise you within
-
thirty minutes. We will get back to you thirty hours,
-
never get back you understand. Those are those of you
-
who travel who flies in the allies starting with B
-
or A right postpone after postpone after postpone, You understand, sir,
-
we'll get back to We'll get back to you. Lip
-
so you hate it. I don't like it as well,
-
But sometimes we think that God can accept it. That's
-
not right here. That's what the word says. You honored,
-
you draw near with your mouth, honor me with the lips,
-
lip service. But could you imagine right now why the
-
Lord want was our hearts? Because your conviction comes with action.
-
Your conviction must come with action, and your heart is action. Friends,
-
And many times there is no no action without conviction.
-
That's why the dust below our bits accumulates. That's why
-
our dad. We pay the minimum. It happens. It's not that.
-
Come on, none of us in purpose or how I
-
pay the minimum because I would experience that is no
-
true or not. None of us are like that. Come on,
-
how do the minimum? Because I just I don't get wet,
-
I don't I don't do more for the lot. None
-
we actually we want to one come on. We actually
-
want to go deeper with a lot, but many times
-
we build on the foundation. That's not correct. Not correct.
-
You know when when when Melo meaning Christian come and
-
talk to me and just different things about different situations
-
and sometimes complaints, I first say, I asked them, is
-
that how is your quiet time? How is your quiet time?
-
I tell you why? How is your quiet time? Because
-
a lot of suggestions come out from the world's way,
-
the world's way, and the world way is very efficient,
-
very clinical, very why. Sometimes nothing wrong with that. However,
-
sometimes the Lord's way is totally different. The Lord's way
-
is totally different. If the Lord asks us to forgive someone,
-
oh there's not a lot, there has to be satan
-
because you were never wrong in the first place. Christians
-
always right. One. I wonder what if it is two
-
brothers in the lot there and then both is right?
-
Then who's wrong? Then you think about it for a moment. Forgiveness, forgive,
-
but low you don't understand the pain? I understand, But
-
you if you don't forgive her, to move on, honor
-
God with our hearts. So when we sing, we sang
-
song just now friends? Was our heart in the song?
-
What was our heart in that song when we what's
-
our heart in our devotion in reading the Bible? What
-
was was only when we read about this? This one
-
was very good. I shall remind reading right, I shall
-
send to her woke up this one we did by credit.
-
I felt the scripture for you, repent friends. I know
-
this because I've been in church for solo. One came
-
that was an amazing preacher was preaching and saying, my
-
books are wailable, there by saying caution, caution, men's, men's ministry.
-
He's a man ministream a guy spoke on Sunday service. Caution, ladies,
-
please stop buy underlining this word give to your husband,
-
please don't buy my books and underlying and just say husband,
-
pay attention to this one. And many times our devotions
-
are like that this one. So next night saw actions reveal. Friends,
-
come on, saws action reveal where his heart is at.
-
He reveals, reveal. Come on, you must allow God to
-
reveal where you are at. Yeah, he reveals first not
-
to shame us or to embarrass us. God's intention was
-
now too shame you publicly shame your friends. If if
-
that was the thing, friends could imagine Carol leading worship
-
half with the lotty foul upon her, she can begin
-
to prophesy. I know we should you were last night,
-
could you? I mean, if that's the intention of embarrassing,
-
to embarrass, humor stood driving to repentance, deliver us totally
-
won't do it anymore. You were going to come to anymore?
-
Who's living was carry on for? You know? His intentions
-
to real so you can do something about it. Yeah,
-
you must at least have the awareness that something needs
-
to be done. I called it the window, the window
-
where God's giving some sort of clarity in mind. There's
-
something I need to do about it. Many times we
-
don't friends. Saw was God spoke to Saul? Why did
-
you spare you think that so? Oh no, I've messed up.
-
I remember you think that. Oh yeah, I did my
-
devotion and you to me in verse twur to utterly
-
destroy everybody. I to forgot. I saw King again. I
-
thought like man, I saw the oxen and the ship.
-
I was so taken off, taken away because mine was
-
a bit of leaner than he's. The know stuff like
-
ninety and ten percent meat. He thought that he would
-
repent after I was so sorry. That's what happens to it.
-
When when? When? When? When we were told that you
-
play something wrong? Let's see fort about your power extreme
-
you played? You said the wrong key, or play the
-
wrong note? You won't go back, but play the round
-
note all the way. I think your hearing is wrong.
-
Think about it. Once you're told wrong, wouldn't you want
-
to Oh, yeah, that's strike. You can't line up. God's
-
word is true? Right when someone said you're playing the
-
wrong note, you can't. No, no, this is the sea
-
of key of C. But actually you're playing D. I
-
don't know that. Friends, the only key I know it's
-
my cocky. You name my house key? Worse? Next, next, like, okay, worst,
-
I didn't. When did you not obey the words of law?
-
Why did you stoop down on the spot and did
-
even in the side of the lot, Hey, hang on first,
-
he just kept all the pretexts. I want to worship God.
-
He kept everything. I want to give this love because
-
God deserved because it I never asked for this in
-
the first place. I never asked for it. Why do
-
you think even in the side of the lord, could
-
you imagine have the pain you You'll be fit for
-
all these years thinking that this is what God wants
-
to cause it. Actually I want something else. Like you
-
took the wrong train and then at the last last station,
-
Oh yeah, I took the wrong trade, Fritz, don't really
-
until the last brother, Oh yeah, Lord, I wish I
-
could do more for you. Why is it? Friends, come on,
-
let's be honest you. Why is it whenever we hit
-
something majoring our life we repent. We want to get
-
ourselves right? Why wait until then? The Vible say, is
-
that when you did even that were streaded sauce it
-
the semio by half obeyed? Wow? If we conted a
-
bill of the foundation, all right, that is not real.
-
We really live in deceptions. I'm all right, my Christian
-
was okay, who say it cannot just come to church?
-
I'm not friends, I'm not not getting anybody done. But
-
here my heart, my heart is really forever to experience
-
God's freedom. It's not just about coming to the churches,
-
not coming to church, but allowing God to go deeper.
-
Because friends, we sit in God's preends. That's freedom. But
-
we go back home. Friends like preason and many times
-
in our life, friends, we are like so, we are
-
like so, But I have obeyed, But I give my
-
tyson offering. I attended prayer service. I tend to church service. First.
-
God is not the attendance taker. He is not. And
-
many times just because we show up it do the minimum,
-
we expect the maximum break through. No, the Bible here
-
says that I obey the worst of the Lord and
-
got the mission and our mission. Lord sent me he
-
can go from mission trip I did. But I remember
-
the poor and the I remember the community people. I
-
brought the gospel. I went to the ends to the world,
-
ends of the world to preach. I brought my kick
-
again of a man kid, I've destroyed the rest. I
-
kept one. God, you understand, there's so many things you
-
view to me. I did almost everything. It just won
-
just one friends. You and I cook and wash our
-
place at home. But if our place has one, did
-
one mark once staying there, one thing that got Hadden.
-
They're like manifesting the area. Say once you understand you
-
all right, once staying there you cook something you know
-
I don't know, maybe didn't go harden all right, like Carrie,
-
go Harden Hadden at one corner. Come on and you
-
you serve it to you? Please? Please? Okay? The point here,
-
that's right, that's right. I went to their homes and
-
you serve it to one of your church partners here
-
who you write over it's okay, the stay sorry and
-
I ate it. I got no, I'm okay. I use
-
it happens our cops coffee staying to side by, okay,
-
because I'm making coffeels over so. But it's the same
-
first and worse treenty do you think look at it.
-
It's the same thing as worse TRENGTHY. I destroyed the rest,
-
I cleaned the tree of the cup. This one most stain,
-
the lipsticks stain. It's okay, one, just drink the other
-
side of y. It's okay, won't kill you. And this
-
is how we offer things up to the Lord. Come on,
-
that's how we serve the Lord. That's how we approach
-
the Bible. I don't really like these are boring. I'm
-
trying to understand. Sometimes the Bible is is challenging on
-
certain certain chapters and certain books. But there has to
-
be a reason I must approach for the fact that
-
try to understand the reason. Yes, we may not understand
-
how living takers will apply to us in our daily life,
-
except to say that the rules of regulation every organization
-
right verse twenty one. But the people took the plunder,
-
the ship Oxid and the best things we should have
-
been utterly destroyed to sacrifice to the Lord, our God,
-
God say destroy, do not spare, destroy, But sometimes we spare.
-
We spare things in our life, you know, we were
-
allowed and always we allow. I don't know how many
-
things in our life we have have we allowed? Have
-
we allowed our paths to contradictate our future? Really everything
-
the narrative is about the same one. Have we allowed
-
some things in our lives, our past experience, our past
-
experience really like you know, our the pin and disappointment
-
really to to influence our future decision. See God understand
-
that's why you say, don't give me lips aways, give
-
me your heart as well, because I got to see
-
you having a breakthrough, because he knows that without giving
-
our hearts, fans, everything else is the lip service. And
-
that's why sometimes we let up in a place of
-
frustration because there is no break true if we if
-
we are still in lockdown now, friends will go crazy
-
five years of lockdown crazy, But spiritually friends, we could
-
be in the place as I close. How long will
-
we allow the misinterpretation of scripture in our life? How
-
long will we allow? And we use the term it's
-
okay next night, I've obeyed. But there's always a reason
-
why not all the way one. This is how I'm
-
going to close. There is always a reason why not
-
all the way one? Always. I have never heard anybody
-
who can without reason must have a reason. I'm not
-
sure what your reason would be as a close friends,
-
but I want to explain to you this thing that
-
if our lives and our hearts don't be an alignment,
-
we're gonna build on a very shaky foundation, very shaky foundation.
-
To the point and to the extent, is this that
-
we believe this is acceptable. If we never come out,
-
none of us, you'll wake up out there. Oh I'm
-
going to be very deceptive. No, it becomes a lifestyle afterward.
-
We don't realize it saw friends, if we knew friends.
-
But he couldn't see. He couldn't see the very fact
-
that the structure was very clear. His actions think its
-
actions can be justified to the Lord. I can explain
-
the way. Come on, God, I kept the best man.
-
I kept the best man. I kept the best for you,
-
not for myself, for you, Lord, I'm offering all this
-
nice oxen, nice lamp for you. And many times we
-
used a lot as a reason why sometimes we cannot.
-
Isn't it true? I want to share this you because
-
I want to experience come on coming to you any ready?
-
So fast? But if we could go to another cycle
-
of friends of listening to messages and after that, after
-
a while, frustration building because okay, I listen to this
-
message the Bible is that there's no addition to the Bible.
-
Praise the Lord, advise we have this few volumes. Okay,
-
should be volume two to church. You didn't be a
-
shame but no, no, thank God only want right? Could you? No? Hallelujah?
-
God understand nos away. But there's no addition the Bible.
-
So therefore, friends, listen to so many messages. What are
-
we going to do with and the messages? If you're here,
-
you have to allow God to work on and build
-
a foundation that one you must you must allow God
-
to review, at least review to you. And what you
-
do with it is your choice at the end of day.
-
But what you do with what God's really is up
-
to you. But you see, this is what even after
-
even after Samuel pointed out to Saw. Even after Samuel
-
pointed out to Saw what he did was wrong in
-
the side of the law La, Saul still tried to
-
reason his way out. I've obeyed, but the people, the
-
people wants to keep it off up to the Lord.
-
Sounds so good, but not what the Lord wants. As
-
I close, friends, God uses our daily life, the choices
-
that we make and other people make that you can
-
come backctually, make it come up. Really, God uses the
-
choices that we make, right, uses the choices to reveal
-
what's the real conditions? You must understand without knowing the
-
real condition heart to do anything hard. We all think
-
that our heart is healthy until we go for health check. Right,
-
we think we are skinny until we go to the
-
retail shop to trial we understand, right, So we must
-
allow God to reveal. But after, when God gives you
-
the revelation, what do we do with it? What do
-
you do with it? Just the minimum? Just the minimum,
-
because following the Lord there's always a point, a point
-
whereby it goes deeper, and really you you can all
-
the way until a king Aga in your life had
-
all the veatton ship. Such a waste if you just
-
destroy and not eat it. Think about it. Why is
-
it that you know that we struggle with really that
-
you know in our journey that that's so hot to
-
surrender God. After I surrender this, I don't go back
-
to this anymore. You know, a person tuly set free, friends,
-
when even the way you speak, the way act doesn't
-
revisit the past, the way the person speaks an act
-
doesn't visit the past anymore, because freedom, come on. Until today,
-
I've not heard anyone say I miss the lockdown. I've
-
not heard anyone say, oh I really miss the lockdown.
-
I wish I wish this lockdown again. No, because freedom,
-
that's what freedom does. You taste God's freedom, you move
-
forward with him and not visiting the past. And even
-
the way you speak, it's different. That's why I say
-
that once you taste freedom after lockdown, you know I
-
miss the lockdown. No, no one said it, because you
-
taste freedom what more in the Lord? What more in
-
the Lord? I'm not sure where you are with your journey. Friends.
-
My encouragement is on this assignment. Just my encouragement is this,
-
everyone of us here today today, just allow God to
-
review to you. You must allow God to re view
-
to you. The awareness what you do with that revelations
-
up to you, because you have to make the choice.
-
God did not kill egg guy on soul's behalf. Although
-
he can, he can, he can cause an earthquake, will
-
win everything he can, but he didn't. Why Because he
-
wants to make sure that you understand what it takes
-
to follow him, that you truly know that following him
-
requires a deeper because you know why. He wants to
-
establish a foundation. He doesn't want for you to live
-
a life. There's a deception. There's a deception meaning to
-
say that you think you're all right right sometimes different challenges,
-
but in actual fact, your foundation is very shaky.
-
We hope you've been blessed by this message. For more
