What's the outflow of our hearts | Pr Sandra Chin

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

We hope this message will light up your tea.

What's the outflow of our hearts? Okay? Outflow? Got inflow

and then God outflow? Amen? And uh? In life there

is inflow. There has to be outflow in those people

are doing accounts, right, you have money in, you have

money out, and then you're later on one to know

how much is your returns on investment? Amen? All right?

So in our lives too, what is the outflow of

our hearts? Really? No one else can see your heart?

Do or not? Right? No one else? You know everything

I say to our church, can you see my heart? Not?

But I can't see your heart I say it, I

love you. I can't see your heart by your actions. Okay, actions,

But this is where our Lord duels. Right, is in

our hearts, and as it were, everything that flows out

flows out of our hearts. If you're happy, I can

tell that you're happy. Right, you're you'll give a bubbly,

bubbly joyful heart. Right. And if you're down, we can

also feel your heart. Right. If you're going through a

tough time, we can feel you. Some of us are

more expressive you will know when I'm out because the

face will show or the hair will show. All right,

but some people can hide it very well. We mask ourselves,

but is that always good? Well, sometimes we need to

carry ourselves. But inside we may go through different things.

But the only person that sees your heart fully is

the Lot. And it is the Lot who carries your

heart in. You know, in the fullness. He doesn't want

to break our hearts. People may break our hearts, but

God never breaks our hearts. He works in us, He

carries our heart. He is the Lot who made us.

He's a good, good father and always takes care of us.

But this morning, as I share with us, is to

search our own hearts. A man, it's important to guard

our hearts. And that's where I just want to share

this encouragement to us and maybe a reminder, maybe a teaching.

The The verse might sound so hard, okay, but don't

pany or I don't penny. God's words meant to transform

us and to bring quickening to us. Amen. Are you

here with me church this morning? Are you there? Amen? Hello?

Ex partners, are you here? I can't hear you? Are

you I know I'm one of those pastners of comment

speak to you and you think, oh my God, she's

just gonna make us be active this morning, and don't

let us sleep in our chair. Yes, that's the point.

We want to respond to God's word. And God's was powerful. Okay,

I know time is always running in so I want

to tell you the power of God's word before I

move on. I just heard a testimony. This is one

of our partners in Cyberjaya. This brother, he's from India.

He used to be a Hindu priest. He is like

at the top of that priesthood. And then one day

their faith there said you have to bring down the Christians,

so you better find out what is their faith about.

And so he took the Bible to read. This guy

knows he's here, he's here with us in cyber he

works in Malaysia now. And so he started to read.

But how did he read. He would read the Bible aloud, right,

he reads it and he's reading it right. He was

reading the Gospels. And then as he read the Gospels,

something happened at the home and someone said, I don't

know who either, the it was just affecting the realm

of the spirit. And he said, can you tell your

son to the mother. Someone the neighbors said, stop reading

that book. It's powerful. Stop reading. He was because he

was reading it aloud. How do you read your Bible?

Do you read it aloud? Normally? Quiet time? He's so quiet, right,

because we are reading it to ourselves. But I've been

reading it aloud ever since some years back, and every

time to quiet I tried to remember to read aloud

and just read it so that my whole person can

hear it and the atmosphere can hear it. There's power

in the God and the word of God. Amen, and

all this, brother, he came to the Lord, the Lord

delivered him. Read the top. Really, these are spiritual things

that we can't you know. Sometimes we touch and we

don't know how to deal with it. But the Lord

saved him as he read in same bringing down the

Christian He became a believer. And now he's serving I

mean he's with us, he is among us, he's serving

the Lord. He's here working and lecturing in one of

our local universities. Well sought after. But can you imagine

the power of God's word? Amen? And it is God's

word that will search our hearts. Amen. So I want

to encourage you. If you're feeling not well, I am

going to tell different people and I experienced this. Read

the word day after day after day after I tell

you God's Word, read it aloud to your body. Read

just read read scripture, read the Gospels, read it and

you see nothing happening. Something is happening in the realm

of the spirit. Something is being declared into your body. Amen. Church,

don't walk out of here going the same as you

did when you came in. You're gonna go home and say,

I'm going to read God's word in the realm so

that everything that's affecting me and disturbing me has to

get out in Jesus name, and my healing has to

come into my body, and my breakthrough is gonna come.

Read God's Word aloud. Believe what you read, amen, because

as you read is nurturing your spirit. Man. But you

must pursue. You keep going. Don't stop one day read

and give up. You must pursue, keep reading and allow

the world to saturate your heart and your mind and

your spirit. Amen. So I'm going to take the reading

today from Mark chapter seven. I won't take the whole context.

I'm gonna come down to Mark chapter seven and verse fourteen.

All right, are you okay with that? So if you

can turn your bibles with me, it's Mark chapter seven,

verse fourteen, and we'll read all the way to verse

twenty three. All right, this is God's word. This is

not my word. This is God's word. This is New Testament,

the Book of Mark, the Gospel of Mark. Amen. So

we're gonna read this. It says here and verse four.

When he called all the multitude to himself, he said

to them, hear me, everyone, and understand. There is nothing

that enters a man from the outside which can defil him.

But the things which come out of him, those are

the things that defile a man. If anyone here has

ears to hear, let him hear. When he entered a

house away from the crowd, his disciples asked him concerning

the parable church. Cho, Cho, cho, what you're talking? Just now? Cho? Teacher?

Are you? Are you thus without understanding? Jesus says, do

you not perceive that whatever enters a man from the

outside cannot defil him because he does not enter his

heart but his stomach. Given you eat, your food goes

in the stomach and is eliminated food. Okay, that's prrifying

all food. Then he said, but what comes out of

a man that will defile a man? So for from

within within, out of the heart of men, precede evil

thoughts and adultries, and fornications, and murders and thefts, and coveteousness, wickedness, deceit, lewidness,

and evil eye. Have you got an evil eye? Evil eye,

a blasphemy, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from

within and defile a man. Amen reading of God's word. Now,

why did Jesus come forth to bring this passage? Because

the before this versus, what happened was the Pharisees who

came to see Jesus noticed that all these disciples were

eating bread, but they did not wash their hands in

a traditional way. So you have to wash the macarena,

all right, you washed. There was a certain way of

washing their hands, and these were traditions that they created.

And so they said, why don't wash your hands. You're terrible, right,

you just broke the lawd da da da da. And

then that's where because if you eat your dirty hand,

then you defile, your defile, your defile. So these were

traditions that they set up, but not really in the

word fully, the word of God. So Jesus brought up

this word. Then he say, hey, whatever, because after you

you didn't wash your hand, You wash your hand, you eat.

It doesn't defile you because it doesn't enter your heart,

but you will come out. Okay. But and so he says,

but you know you you're what you're taking taking this way. No,

but what goes into our hearts, which later we talk about,

and what comes out of our hearts is what will

defil us, because what's coming out right, And so then

he says, it is from within, out of the heart

of men, that we have evil thoughts, We have adulteries,

we have onnications, murders and thefts and coveragres, wickedness, deceit

and lewdness, and evil eye, blasphemy, pride and foolishness. These

things come out of that's the thing that comes out

that defiles us, all right. So where am I coming

through for us today? So the word defile what defiles us?

The word defiles in g g the Greek is coin coino. Okay,

I'm not Greek, all right, So coino all right? It

means to pollute, all right, to pollute. So I guess

pollute means dirty. Oh God, lot of pollution in the air,

all right, okay, defiling our air, making it dirty. So

capture the word pollute what pollutes us? And then I

go to some thirty nine verse one, trying to make

some links here. Follow with me. So some thirty nine

verse one says, I said, this is David King. David.

I will guard my ways lest I sin with my tongue.

I will restrain my mouth with a muzzle, and I

clover my mouth while the wicked are before me. I

will guard my ways less I sin with my tongue.

And the word pollute also includes sin. Sin pollutes it it? Yeah,

it defiles us. So are you so what are you saying?

Are we all dirty? Or are we all sin? Member?

We are in Christ. The blood of Jesus washes us.

But now we are responsible for what we do as

we walk every day until we meet Jesus. Amen. And

so that's where I just want us to consider our ways,

and I just want to encourage us. I'm also speaking

to my own heart, all right, because our hearts, our minds,

and our mouth they all connect, all right. What you

say sometimes is very much. What's from your heart, and

then your mind will tell you it cannot be, that

cannot be. In then your heart say no, lie, I believe.

I believe in your heart. In your mind say no, no, no.

Cand So there's this war sometimes going on. But whatever

we decide, it comes from the heart. Amen, hallelujah. So

I bring you three thoughts, and I called it gut mamber.

Sometimes you say, my gut feeling, I have this gut

feeling that's evil behind the door. That my gut feeling

this person is not really nice. Okay, wherever gut and

so what do I do with this gut Okay? So

g g stands for I put that guard your heart. Okay,

all right, the obvious thing God your heart. And I'm

taking the first verse yea from Proverbs four. Proverbs chapter four.

If you have your bibles turned with me problems chapter four,

your e Bible's good. To bring your bibles to church

used to be a tradition. We used to go to

church with bibles. These days we think it's heavy, all right,

But now I bring your bibles. We can slip the pages,

flip the pages, emen. Okay. Proverbs chapter four and verse

twenty three says from well where's it twenty four of

twenty three, Keep your heart with all diligence, for out

of it springs the issues of life that is in

King New King James in the New International, it says,

God your heart, God your heart, because out of it

will flow the very things that are stirring in your heart. Amen.

So God your heart. Okay, we start with guarding your heart.

If we want to know how is the outflow of

our heart, we need to know what is what goes

in and what comes out too, So we have to

guard our hearts. God. Garding means what's actually filling our

hearts on a day to day basis. How how are you,

you know, experiencing life? What are you receiving? Not not

what you eat, but how how are you receiving messages?

What's brewing brewing in your heart? How many things that

because your heart, your mind, they will work together. What's

playing on your mind? Like a like a movie? You know?

Inside here? It's like we've got nice drama going on here.

You know if I did I know what you did

last summer? Or are you I made this mistaken? Are

you no? I can't forgive myself? Oh no, you know something,

or you're playing a little movie like really like this,

I'm gonna eat this and it's going by. I'm not there.

I can't hide my favorite dudy or whatever. All right,

So what what is brewing in our hearts is important

to God to guard it because out of the out

of our hearts we speak, either we're speaking life or

we're speaking you know, negativity. Amen. So I also I'm thinking,

I'm I'm a very big reactionary person. Yeah, if I'm angry,

I'll be big. If i'm happy, I'm also big if

i'm said, I also big. All right, So you know

immediately this is where she said. And some people can't

take it, and they go like are you are you?

Oh no, she's going to pieces now. Oh she's holding me. No,

my voice gone, Hi, Hi cannot high. You're more excited like,

oh no, she's upset with me. All right, but so

you read me. You can't. I can't hide you will.

Oh she's happy, she's not happy, she's weird. Okay, all right.

Everybody always have some special needs in us. Okay, please

do not judge the other person with special needs. You

have a special need too, all right, So yes, I

have special needs. I react being after screaming you and

not go like, Okay, I'll let it out. I'm okay

now I told you what I felt. Okay, But how

to God? Right? I have to remember my remind myself

what's coming out? I mean, having expression just makes me

a very expressionful person. So I say you can read me,

so there's nothing to hide. But it's my heart evil,

What what's coming out like I hate your face or

or like I so what's really in my heart? That's

why I need God? Because how did it get there?

How did that offense get there? How did that anger

get there? How did you know the stuff that really hurts?

It could be also because you experience pain, you experience rejection,

experience you know, disappointment, your experience loss, and so our hearts.

I tell you it can be a big storm rolling

in our hearts. Your ship inside there is going up

and down, you know, the ship of our hearts and

we but we have to keep saying no, Jesus, please

be the anger of my heart. Amen. Can you say

to the Lord, please be the anger of my heart?

Because I can't. I can't sometimes God, the way I feel,

and I might I might speak out my hurt or

my pain, my loss. You know some of us lost

our family members, our parents, or someone dear to us,

a friend, a spouse. We go through so much, and

our hearts go round and round, and and then I ask, so,

what's going to flow out from our hearts? And of

course it's not your heart, open eye and the flow

out like that. But our mouth will come out right.

And and because a lot of things are stirring here,

it will affect here. Sometimes here will affect here. Husbands

and wives. I tell you, our husbands just can't read us.

My husband thinks you get hair the DearS, but I

think sometimes you also don't get it right, like do

you want this or you don't want it all? Or

if I didn't do something, and any might h yeah

you are no no no, But I'm not feeling that way.

Will you judge me? You judge me? We we don't

tell people how we are feeling or what we want,

and then people will judge us based on what our

facial or or maybe our actions right our body language.

And in marriage as well, I forgot my head because

sometimes in my mind I'm playing some drama then or

why is he late playing pickleball again, now your cocky letter,

All right, why he left me? Whatever? See your mind's playing.

But maybe the other reasons is are always really straight

to somebody I don't know. But first as he always

tells me where he goes like usually usually but you know,

and I'm busy he's busy or busy. But our minds

can create thoughts, judgments against someone. Why he didn't come

this Sunday? Why what happened? Maybe somebody had an accident,

Maybe the parent came. Maybe I don't know. So many things.

We have to guard our hearts. What's gonna outflow from

what come out from our mouth will come out from

our hearts. I believe we can be better. I want

to be better, judge, I want to be better, even

as my colleague I don't know, sit next to him

at work, but in a very big different room he

works in, and I'm some small room there and uh

and uh. But but they can all see my reactions.

I have very big reactions. But we have to also

then know after many years, what is my heart. However,

people can always see our hearts right because of what

we say, how blunt to how gentle, the kindness, the consideration,

what outflows, what outflows from our heart really will be

spoken out because of what we're brewing in our hearts.

And I think we I think we can be better.

I think I think we all need a little bit

more encouragement than Ghannamaralla right right, I'm trying. I'm trying,

Mara my team, you know, I don't think so im

Mara dem. I don't scoore them whatever, But I think

people need more positive words. If we could change what's

brewing about in our hearts here and in our minds.

I'll come to the mind later. I think we could

give somebody what's that word, benefit of the doubt, benefit

of doubt, right, because you might you might judge someone

by I think they're saying this because it's like that,

like that, like that. But if you say I give

someone the benefit of the doubt, you stop brewing, You

stop for a while, and you give time. You just

give time to each other, to one another, and then

watch I think actually reaching out to me in love

or they're reaching out to me in judgment. Is my

boss doing this? They hate my face? What is this

problem with this person? But we need to stop the brewing.

Don't overtime in the mind, like playing this movie on

and on, like either the poor me or I'm going

to get you or you just wait. It's a lot

going on. We have to guard the heart now, guarding

of the heart, How do you God your heart? Again?

It goes back to your personal encounter with Jesus. Means

your quiet time matters because you have to You have

to pour out your heart every day to Jesus and

ask him. It's hard. It's hard for me to face

this person, someone you see at work every day, someone

you see at home every day. And if I don't God,

I will say words. They are very cutting. And in

marriage it happens actually both husband and wife. They're already hurting,

and so the words that come up cannot got ready

is because you're so upset with one another and we

have to stop for a while, and you need a

third party sometimes to come in to help us, or

we just need to stop and someone I hopefully will

be more mature to think. So, why are we hurting

each other in the marriage, friendship, church life, work life,

community life. I think we need to God our heart

by first pouring out our pain to the Lord and

then at a good time, especially if you you really

have this issue with somebody, then maybe we sit down

and not over assume have Sometimes you just need to

deal it with Jesus and let it go. Other times

it could be that you may need to speak and

say because it was obvious that you did something to

me and I'm hurting, so I need to bring it up.

But I find that many of us believers in the

Lord are very bad at bringing up things. So if

you did something to me, Lily, I'll tell Josiah really

did this to me? Can you tell her? I find

that it's very common in the church life, family life.

We tell our child, you tell papa. Oh. I experience

that with my father in law and my mother in

law and my husband. We just got married, and then

father in law says, tell son, you tell mom this.

Mom tells son tell this. One day I got so upset,

I said, Dad, grow up. You speak to mom yourself.

I'm the daughter in law just got married to month

two years over haw many months. I said, stop it,

you're killing my marriage. I just married your son. Stop it.

I'm going to lose my husband, who will just go

because both of you are fighting. This is adult person.

You're talking this way you got to stop, I said, Dad,

stop it. Speak to mom yourself, she's your wife. I

didn't get another call anymore. Yeah, yeah, thank my husband

was free a bit, yeah, I said. I said, honey,

you can't go on like this. You've got a marriage here, Hello,

carrying the burden, I said. People need to grow up

and take responsibility. If you want to tell something your wife,

you tell it yourself bravely. Why I'm not happy with this?

Why you tell your middle round? You know, the middle person.

People in the middle will die and then they will

be walking the you know how you say happily ever

after and walk under the sunshine, moonlights, rainbow whatever. Then

the poor person in the middle like what happened? Right, So,

guarding our hearts is to not try to put many

blames using others, but ourselves. Pour our hearts out to

the lot first. And we have we have a confidant,

our best friend, our someone we really open our hearts to,

and that person should minister not by agreeing yeah yeah,

you're right, cute, kill that position. We have sympathized with you,

and maybe give word of wisdom to how we should

deal with this. And sometimes we can at least offer

the talk stract talk, and see what happens. If nothing happens,

then at least you already said something. At least I

tell you that I was very over and I was

very hurt most of the time. It's because we are hurt.

You didn't think about me. How come you didn't think

about me. You know I'm your wife or I'm your friend,

I'm your best friend, you know I'm your ministry team member,

but you never think about I was just hurt. It's

o kiy to feel hurt sometimes, right reality check? Hello,

we do feel hurt. I tell you I feel hurt.

I feel left out sometimes. But what do I do?

Do I go and broom my heart? No, I go

to Jesus and humble myself and say, I don't know

why I'm feeling this way. Jesus, please forgive me, slap

me and wake me up. Stop it girl, you know,

and wake up? And I say, Okay, the Lord's got

my back. If he wants me to be promoted in

that position, he will. If he wants me to remain

where I am, then Lord, I'm happy to just do

what I have to do right now, Amen, guarding our

hearts so that you don't overflow and then you warm

it oulready. I cannot take back how many times we

wanted it out and cannot take back. And that's where

relationships fail. Friendships, some businesses fail. Your ministry fails. Oh

we didn't, God what because out of the wellspring of

our hearts, our mouth will speak right now? Many times

we are because we are over time, the mind very

clever to overtime. Are you a workerholiday and overtime? I

overtime a lot when I work. I don't know. But

we cannot overtime here because it will build clouds that

don't exist. We will build imaginations of people that never exist.

And we never gave that person a chance to speak back.

That's all I'm thinking about.

You. You know.

Is there because it's not real, it's not it's there

in your mind. But the real person didn't do that.

They had a reason for what they went through. Amen.

So we must got ourselves first so that we don't

have regrets of spilling out something on the fullness of

our hearts. And you know, when someone is so full

and happy, out of the fullness, they bless you out

of their fullness, they come and help you, They want

to help you, They want to bless you fullness. But

when your heart is full of bitterness, and oh yo,

world War five, you know, three or four? When off

World War five, we're brewing out unhappiness. But I think

we need support sometimes from others to help us. Otherwise

we need to turn to Jesus and and and first

and then, Okay, I can't deal myself. Can I seek

for counsel, help for my leaders, spiritual leaders, whatever? Right?

So God, your heart pick the Bible tells us to

guard it, because out of it will flow, the outflow

will come. And sometimes we regret why we outflow unnecessarily

We said things that we shouldn't have said, but we

said it, and then we get judged from there and

then so had to patch back the brokenness. And I've

been there, you know, and I can't. I can't change

the way you think about me. And I want to

know I said it. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, But people

already charged you. So you have to live your life

in a testimony that will overcome the shadow of the

negativity that I created for myself. What to do? Got?

You just have to trust God to clean you up

and give you a good reputation again as you live

with a good heart and get yourself right. Amen. But

sometimes it's brewing unnecessarily. So God our hearts, and I

say say quiet time with Jesus helps you throw your

heart out. Tell you tell the lot how you really feel,

even if it's about name the person, name the situation,

name your you are struggling with the sin, Name that

sin to the Lord. God is not afraid of our past,

of our dirt, of our filth, of our defoulment. He's

not afraid, Jesus. You sing the sidelight of the world.

You step out down into darkness. Right, he stepped down

to us. He's not afraid of the darkness of our

hearts or our mess. That's he's that's he's he's the

expert in cleaning us up. Amen. So if we want

to get our hearts in the right place, the best

persons go to Jesus. Tell him name it and ask

him for strength. And then if you really need because

it was it was hurtful to you, speak to the

person directly, don't talk to other tell and then it

becomes God sit right. You speak to the person that

and even if the person doesn't think they did anything

wrong to you. I think it's important to at least

you bold and brave and and just it. I'm just

saying this how I felt. But you go humbly and

just say no. I just wanted you to know. Do

I expect a story, It doesn't matter, but I needed

you to know. And I don't want to keep thinking

bad about this situation. Yeah, it's tough. It's very hard

called to do this. But if we don't, then we

will brew. Then our hearts will have a real storm,

you know, for a long long time, and Jesus wants

to calm the storm of our hearts came in you

did you get something there? The storm? That sometimes is tough,

especially in marriage relations. I've been married for thirty years.

I still have storms with my husband and marriage. Well,

we were the best friends, but he also irritates me.

There are days, yes, I irritate him too by being

blow blah, something's waiting any way, waiting the key? Please? Sorry,

you know, I just I also have my faults. I forgetfulness, blurwness.

Really we just have to say sorry and thank you.

And that's what my husband does every time. Actually I

get quite everything I do for him, he says thank you,

you know, and I say, no, need la, You're making

me feel bad because I forget to say thank you,

all right, But he always does the very sweet of it.

But you always say I don't want to take you

for granted. I, on the other hand, forget to say

thank you. So there's sometimes he's like, yeah, I know

some people, oh, and they say I can't forgive. I

can't forgive. Men to the closer, they are like, no,

lat me need that way. So there's got our hearts,

like got our hearts? Okay, closer. Sometimes I feel the

most pain, all right, but we have Jesus. I want

you to go back knowing that you have the lot

with you, whatever the losses, whatever the situation, whatever the struggle,

the thing that is really really on your shoulder, you

have the lot with you. How much more, how much

more that hope that your belief will be strengthened this morning.

I come to strengthen your faith as I strengthen mine

in the lot that I have my days as well.

But I need to know I'm not alone in this.

Jesus is with me. So I want us to God.

I want myself to guard my heart so that when

I flow out it won't just be blood, you know,

and just black water. I want it to come out alive.

I want to come out and bring encouragement. I want

to be at least positive to someone who's listening, instead

of brewing stuff that just shouldn't be because then I'm

allowing the enemy to take it and rob other people's joy.

Is I'm not happy, so I want you to be

not happy. Cannot love, cannot right, That's not how the

Lord made us. So I want to encourage us guarding

our hearts. Come bring to the Word of God that

you read daily. Read it out aloud. Let the world

God be hurt and come back into your spirit. Amen. Secondly,

you and the gut is unclocked, the mind unclogg it.

We are told you our minds are very powerful. This cip.

Is it called sipu? Is it called if you am

I right to say it? Yes, CIPU is way bigger

than the AI that people are created, except it's not

so fast. Say I know you get now you get

back right, answer right, But this cip is the one

that made the AI come on. Okay, But we have

to know how to unclock our minds because our minds

are powerful. It can overnight and keep playing and keep

playing and cause a lot of pain to ourselves and

hurt to ourselves. So what I want us to remember

and what we can do is Romans Chapter twelve. Romans

Chapter twelve, verse two, Verse one says Verse one Romans twelve,

Verse one and two says Paul writes to the church

in Rome, I beseech you there, for brethren, by the

mercies of God, that you present your bodies, your bodies

a living sacrifice, holy acceptable to God, which is your

reasonable our service. Amen, look at that. It's a very

rational thing to do, is to give your body to

the Lord. Give yourself to the Lord. And then he says,

and do not be confirmed to this world, but be

transformed by the renewing of your mind. Everybody say, renewing

of my mind, Amen, one more time, renewing of my mind,

that you may prove what is that good and acceptable

and perfect will of God. Now, when we are struggling

in our physical on our mind, in our heart to

do something, or we refuse to do something for the Lord,

or it just cannot is our mind that is not renewed.

We have to unclog the ways of the world that

has already been with us for many years. So we

have to unclog. How to unclock The only way is

to get a renovation happening in our minds. The renewing

of the word through it says yeah that it says,

be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that

you will know what is the good, acceptable and perfect

will the only way to renew our mind again. I

have to say this thing that so many of us

struggling to do is read God's word. A yo, I

don't know, whe have to go already. Some people say

past your message is always boring because you're always asking

me to read by book ayo. But that's the only way,

only way, and so few of us break through because

so few of us make time for the word. We

just find out it's there when I need it. It's there,

but do you take it. It's your supplement K two,

D three, C and B twelve and your whatever vitamins.

That's the word of God. Renew means that the more

you read. And I want to tell you it is

very true. When I got safe at the age of sixteen,

I had a mouth like a I don't know call

my brother names. Of course, I only teenager. No, and

and then I I don't know, you know I have

I don't know. I guess I needed a change. But

Jesus had to do that change when I became a Christian,

and I would read the New Testament, Gospel cover to

cover gospel and the whole New Testament as I read it.

As I read it, as I read, I just read

it every day or come home after school, and I

would take time to do my quiet time, learning from

my Christian fellowship, my leaders. So okay, I'll come back.

I read the Bible, pray, and I could see God

turning my language from negativity to life giving and not

using names, you know, at people. I caught myself reading

the Word and finding true. That transformed and renewed my mind.

It renovated the way I looked at people. Or you know,

it's fighting a younger brother. He's a younger brother, right,

but maybe that or other people of friends or family.

It renewed. I kid you not, it really has power.

The Bible. Could I say the Word of God has

power to unclog our minds and our hearts. It brings healing.

I was not healed immediately when I told them yesterday,

I accept the Christ at this place yesterday we were

at I went for the altar God. It wasn't healed

immediately on my aesthma, but over time, as I read

God's word, I realized I don't have as many more.

It just Jesus encountered me and he started the healing work.

But as I read the word of God cover to cover,

I finished the New Testament. Wow, he renewed me. He

renovated at that stage of my life, sixteen years, all

that I stop one thing, to leave Malaysia, to go

to America to hopefully study and uc USC or whatever

the name or UNI is or whatever like. Okay, I

just want to leave Malaysia at sixteen I'd find a way, right.

And it transformed my mind to think that all that

I am going to be and do is Him who

will give me the doors where I should go. He

really does. He unclogged the Lord, unclogged my mind. He

gave me a new, renovated mind that would think as

he would think. Okay, I am still a working progress

at this stage of my life, another stage of my life.

But if you ask me, how am I going to

unclock my mind? Renew it how are you gonna learn

to say yes to Jesus renew it? How can you

do something like agree with the word renew your mind? First,

renewed mind will then allow you to stop feeding your flesh,

your flesh, your canal person which says, I don't like,

I don't want. But when you are spirit man, when

you are in the walking in the spirit, that's what

we are. We have the Holy Spirit right the Bible

and in Galatians says, not only are you you know,

live in the spirit, walk in the spirit. Galatians the

vibe not only do you live in the speaker's holy

Spirit lives and you walk in the spirit. So the

unclogging of our minds came by comes by the renewing

of our minds to the world that is coming in.

We just need it. We need God's word. Come on, Church,

I know, and you aren't reading because you can't face

what you're facing, because you didn't know that the Bible

tells us that we will go through this. You will

have to go through this. But doesn't mean he leaves you.

He's with you. Amen. He's a faithful God, he's a

true God. He can be your guiding light. But you

won't know your guiding line if you aren't reading the

love letter that he left us sixty six books. Come on,

take one book and read. Come on, you want to

be fired up in the Holy Spirit, don't just you know?

I feel people pay thousands of dollars thousands. I know

people it five six, ten thousand to be coach, to

be a better person, to be able to say I

can lose that weight ten thousand you pay. I want

to ask you a question, is Jesus enough for you?

Are you sure Jesus is enough for you? Because I

had to ask myself, is Jesus enough for me? People

pay good money. Maybe we need the extra help and coaching. Okay, fine,

that's not a bad thing. What I'm saying is, after

all of that, can you still believe that Jesus can

help you through it? What if we don't have that

money anymore? If I can't pay some of us can't

pay that kind of money. I tell you he's the

best coach, the best coach if you would allow him to,

and he will bring that one person in your life

that will matter. You don't need a million friends. You

just need one or two very good friends who believe

in you and would cheer you on. Amen. So unclogging

of our minds, meaning renewing and renovating our minds, helps

us to even battle through. Sometimes when the enemy comes

in to take your peace, to rob you of your peace,

to rob you of your sanity, to rob you of

the calm that you should have, and it just shakes

you up and say, all I cannot allow your mind

will work. So this mind is powerful, this cpu can

be so amazing. But if you don't submit it to

the lordship of Jesus Christ, he will run you a mock.

You'll be going here where you know, hair will be everywhere,

helter skelter in your spirit. That's what it looks like.

If I could put an X ray machine on you

right now, I will tell you hold will show me

the healter skelter spirit that you have because you're running everywhere.

But if you just come into his presence, into his word,

take I don't know. I don't have another formula to

better this, you know. The only formula I've learned is

to sit before the Lord and say, Okay, Jesus, I

can't handle this. Please help me. That's it. That's it.

Please help me. I don't know what to do. I

don't want to call for anybody's help because I'm going

to all the wrong people. Lord Jesus, please help me.

Please transform the way I'm thinking about myself, the way

i'm thinking about the brother and sister. Please help me.

Just transform me. And where do you go? He will

direct you to his word. He will direct you. Imagine,

I was not even a Christian, not even a Christian,

never opened the Bible. And yet the one little Bible

that they gave me at my school, the day I

turned it, that was the day he spoke to me

John four verse one. If you believe John fourteen, verse one.

If you believe in God, believe also in me. I say,

I believe in God, red color words. So who's the

me Jesus. I was a Buddhist. I believe in God,

but I don't know who Jesus is. I said, okay,

And then he said the next verse, verse six, I

am the Way, the Truth, and the life. No one

comes to me except true the one comes to the

Father except through Jesus. And I took that. I was

not a Christian. Yet God took the Bible and spoke

to my heart. And I was in trouble at that time,

and the Lord calmed my situation. If I were not

yet a believer, could God could speak to me? How

much more all of us today we are children of God.

We must give it a gola at least I met

before you chuck it out and don't trust the word,

and no time for the word. The day you say

no time means someone said yesterday. When you say no time,

it just means God did the mistake of giving you

twenty four hours. There is the twenty four hours not enough.

You know what I discovered brand sisters. My lifestyle is

already busy. I realized I don't have time to sit

down and take a coke and read a book and relax.

I don't have time for them. I'm now studying for

my masters. I'm thinking, why am I going to have

the time to study and do assignments and read out?

But I'm already. I just finished my whole year semester.

I just finished it, just finished it just friday. I

just put the paper in stop me, all right, and

that's it. I'll start again next year. Next to the

final year. I didn't have time, I would not have

studied at all because I think I don't have time,

I travel, I can't go for classes. They're all online,

thank god. But we were all four of us were saying,

who are taking these calls together? We said, we say,

no timer, but we finished one year of studies. I

think they all score Aesler. My team very clever. You

know who's my team member? Elder Rose, top student, busses Sterra,

top student, Puss the ject oh your top student, enemy,

the Abordo, the one with the oldest grandmother studying right,

I don't know, but all as for now. It's been

all as for now, okay, I said one b plasa,

then one's crying right here? My husband said a B

plus okayla or stop grumbling. One I've fifty over, going

to be sixty readio sorry, must get a you know.

So I don't know, but Asian, my, that's so terrible.

The Asian. Yeah, I'm doing education, telling people writing please

do not ask for a from your child, you know,

let them ace in their life, not necessarily in the

science paper. Right, that's what my research is like. Come on,

and then here I'm going be blah one subject, one

subject and once under the rest. I just checked my

some results. It's all been a ace plus. So praise

God for him grace and for the group. I think

the group definitely helps so much. Our team work together.

This is a group assignment thing. Except for the solo

papers we have to write. I tell you, you say

you don't have time. Four of us looked at each

other say and say, hey, we say we have no timer.

But we've completed one year of studies, including our ministry,

our travels, our work. There are we all work and

then we do ministry at night. So if we say

we don't have time, we make time. Because there's something

you want to do, you will make time. Money. We

say no time. Now if the inn thing is speakable,

you make time. But Daniel Chong say it got no time.

But Dan he goes and play at twelve midnight, Ge leveler,

do have o'clock. I'm the boss, right come to work

while you're just sleepy. So I'm just saying, unclog our minds.

When we renew our minds, we look at things with

positive that it is possible. This can heal my My

relationship with my mom can be better, my relationship with

my us when getting better on my wife or you

know how I'm going through this situation, I can continue

to trust God for my healing. My healing, not my body,

from my mind to my heart to my physical body.

Jesus is a healer. Amen. Amen. And the tea as

time runs out, tea in the gut is to think

right and to talk right. We started with the renewing

of your mind, so you start to think right, and

then we can talk right. But how Philippines, chapter four,

verse eight. You all know this verse. We quote it

many times, and I go back to this verse time

and again always when I'm stuck and I feel like

I'm going to go negative on myself or others, I

have to look at this verse. Philippines, Chapter four and

verse eight. It says here Philippines, Chapter four and verse eight,

Paul is writing while he's in jail. He's chained, he's

you know, there's there's nowhere to go. He's stuck in jail,

and he says this. He says, finally, brethren, whatever things

are true, can you think of something that's true right now?

What is true? True? It's true? Okay, whatever things are noble?

Is there something that's noble that you can think about?

Whatever things are? Just whatever things that are pure, whatever

things that are of good? Report is there any virtue?

If there is anything praiseworthy, anything at all? Meditate on

these things? Meditate. Another way of saying is putting our

minds and focusing and thinking through over and over the

good things, bad things? Which are true? What is noble?

What is just? What is pure? What is lovely? What

is good? Report any virtue in it? Any good virtue?

There's anything that is praiseworthy? Would we put our minds

to think about those things? Meditate is to think about

this over and over again, because we're already thinking over

and over again about the negativity or the pain or

the struggle or the you know, the sadness, a lot

of that. But can I shift with the renewing of

your mind? God begin the Holy Spirit teachers to shift

and and because it's renovates it instead of the first

thing is like, okay, what is true? Okay? What's true

about you? And that's true us? What's true bout you know?

I've got to think about its true? Okay, a kind person,

So I'm editing on the kind person about him, although

I'm not I'm upset about something else. But no, no, no,

what's true what's true for us? Okay, bring that out.

What is noble? What is that? Be thankful? He is

there something, and be thankful about that friend, about your child,

about your spouse, about your mom, your dad, something about

them that you just burst out and say. No, I'm

I'm thankful for my father putting me through education. I'm

thankful for my mom. Or I'm thankful for this job.

It's tough, but I'm just thankful I have a job.

I'm thankful for my boss. I'm thanking a difficult person.

I mean, in life, things get tough, but we need

to talk right. Because we think right. It goes from here,

then it can affect here, and then from here you

will affect here, and then we lost it. My life

is so short. I always think about life and how

short it is. Some of us live long, Gella. Somebody

says seven series, really, b MW seven series. I'm not

yet seven last series getting there five for me, but

a long way to catch up with you soon. We've

got to ask allow God to help us think right

so that we can begin to talk right. Speak right, amen,

because this heart overflows, and I tell you can I

encourage you many. I don't have a lot of proof.

I did not say it. It's my thoughts, not necessarily

word of God. But world of God does say that

if we allow bitterness and all that to wrote down,

it can cause illness. Yeah, true, right, you get headaches

and migraines sometimes because you're so so the auntis are

telling me, yes, auntie, auntie, young ladies out there, you know,

they say, when you're when you're so eaten with our

not gonna. I met a ninety two year old came

to xcacate a day, you know, ninety two. She looks

like eighty or something. She wanted to see me no,

purposely said no, no, I want to see them fastest wife.

Hello auntie, And she said, you know how I am, say,

don't say, don't day after all, very young, I'm ninety two,

you know, young lady. Okay, I say, but you look excellent.

You know she looks so well. No, not like she

had a walking stick, but she wasn't limping. Just the

legs are weak already in ninety two. And then she

just said to me, you know, I keep my heart

free all the time. I don't want to hold any grudges.

I forgive quickly. She said, so I'm being a Christian

for a long time, but I learned I must let go.

Then I'm free. I'm happy to cook for my children,

but they don't let me cook as they say I'm old.

And she said, you see, I'm so well, I'm ninety two.

I said, yes, because your heart is free. Yes, she says,

I just don't hold anything. I don't want to get angry.

I guess when you're ninety two, you don't need to

get angry anymore. And I'm close to sixty, and I

want to get angry now. And she said, there's nothing

to be upset anymore. Why as we age, just be mature.

I think we need to be more free. Huh, how

do you think, ladies and gentlemen, what do you think

she should be more free? Sometimes I catch myself and

I got no pat for people that I'm already, you know,

sixty and not going down. No patience. They're so proud.

That's so proud to say that that I have no

patience because I'm sixty and I don't have time for

such things. The more we grow in the Lord, the

more gracious we should become. The fruit of the spirit

should be more evident. The patience, the kindness, the gentleness.

Whoa I So I caught myself going, okay, I'm sorry, Jesus,

I shouldn't be saying, but I haven't no time for you.

Don't make me angry. Im you know how I am sixty,

you know. Don't miss swan dilla right? Stop it, you know.

And as we mature, so I don't say age. But

as we mature in the Lord, we we we we

accumulate the fruit of the spirit. Amen, Right, John, We

should have been building up on the fruit, having more fruit,

not less fruit. Then our heart is lighter. Amen, and

and and and and then the beautiful fruit will come.

And and you get patience from me, you get from me,

You get love from me, You get kindness from me,

and you know goodness from me. I should I should

look at the fruit of the spirit and go like,

that's who I want to be, the fruit of the spirit,

the spirit working in me. Oh, I have a long

way to go, but I'm gonna work at it. I

want to work at it to build a low holy

spirit to remind me. So if I can't think right,

I can then talk right? Why? Because I'm thinking what

are you thinking about? I'm thinking about this, right, German joke,

what are you thinking about? I'm thinking about this. I'm thinking.

I'm letting it sink into my person. I'm letting it

go deep that what is true about this situation? What

is true about that person? What is pure? What is lovely?

And sometimes we can I get upset, I do, I do,

and then I have to stop and thing. But that

person's also the very person that helps me all the time.

But is you eat eating me? And now we're not

doing a job right, So I have to stop and think.

Then you look retrospect a bit and remember they were

there for you when you needed them most. But just

because there's a mistake, they're not very quicker on the brain,

a bit lower then you. Right, So cannot think about

what was what is true? What is lovely? What is pure?

What is of good report? Think about that virtue good reports?

When you hear testimonies on Botswana, When you think about that,

you stop getting angry about what you are going through

now and think, Wow, God is working in Botswana. We

got to turn the tide of the way we think

and find the good, find the virtuous, find that which

we can use to give thanks to the Lord for

giving of thanks, heals your irritations, He use your guest.

You know why we get guesting sometimes not because you

have you because you're keeping a lot of things, right

or not, young lady, we're keeping a lot of things.

And Jesus will work out physically, and then it will

affect us because in our spirit, you're already not renewing

our minds, not unclogging our minds, not able to God.

Because we are broken. We need a city, must have

walls to protect them. A person must have their walls

by guarding our hearts so that we don't spew out

here and they're everywhere. It will hurt us. Not people

get hurt, but we will hurt ourselves. We will hurt

and we won't like ourselves very much after that. So

I truly want to encourage us. What would the outflow

of your heart be? Amen? Amen? What would be the

outflow that for God? Let's guard the outflow of our hearts. Amen,

Let's guard the outflow of our hearts. And I've given

you a little bit of keys. A lot of it

has to do with the responsibility of turning to the

word of God, professing, declaring God's word, allowing God's word

to transform you. Amen, and look for the right meditations.

What are you and I'm meditating about? Are we meditating

on all the wrongs that I've done in the past?

And I catch myself doing this like for assignments and

then you get better and LO didn't do well. You're

meditating on all the wrong things. You wrote. I should

be moving forward and doing learn what I should do right.

So I got to stop it, girl, get over the paper,

move on to the next one. But if I meditate,

I will push myself backwards and I cannot go forward.

That's just an exam like paper, right, But in real life?

What about life? You failed in something you you couldn't

get it right, you keep meditating on it. I didn't

do this, I forgot that. Or some moms, young moms

tell me at any young moms in house, they said,

I forgot my child. I left you at the supermarket.

Happen my friend did it? Left the child? And they're

all so busy, you know, mothers are so busy. You

know some things. And she said, came home, where's the child? Right?

And then if you keep going to what at I'm

a bad mom? Bad mom? No, you're not a bad mom.

Things happen. Oh, we have so much to think about.

Mother has a lot of things to think about, the kid,

the home, the family, a lot of things to think about.

So if we meditate, then we say I failed. I

feel I fail, and you feel bad. No, I think

I said I made. I had a bad day, but

God's gonna turn it around. I just had a bad day.

That's it. It's just a bad day. But eternity is forever. Oh,

eternal life is forever. So stop kicking yourself with a

bad day and say tomorrow in Christ, I can face

tomorrow with Christ. Amen, because he lives, I will face

tomorrow with all the jingbang stuff. I'm slowly gonna let

go by meditating on the word of God. Bye. Coming

under the lordship of Jesus Christ. I submit to him

and allow God to take me on. This starts with here.

Don't you think everything starts with our hearts? True? Right? Yes,

time's up people, not times op. That's if they're gonna

go like this starts with all starts here. It helps

doesn't help the here, and they all come out to

here and then it mess up. But today I want

to encourage us and I'm speaking to my own heart,

and you can remind me to you can remember that, yes,

stop it and then remind me didn't you say that? Yes?

I did, but allowed my low moment, my weak moment,

allow my flesh to speak. But we don't want the

flesh to take over. We want the spirit of God

to take over. We want our spirit men to be strengthened. Amen,

And how to be strengthened God, Our hearts unclocked, the

mind meaning renovate your mind to the reading meditating of

God's word. The tea is to think right, talk right.

If you get stuck anytime, look at Philippin's Chapter four

Verus eight. Every time you're gonna go into a down

rabbit hole, stop and just say no. I'm going to meditate.

I'm going to think about the things that are true.

I'm want to think about what is just. I want

to meditate and what's beautiful. My baby is beautiful. I'm

gonna meditate on the miracle of life that God has

given to me. I'm gonna, you know, just thank God

for my job, for my family, for my children, for

my church, for my leaders, from whatever you want to

think because you're going through it. Amen. Church, come stand

with me. Let's ask a lot of help us and

you surrender what the storms that might be in your

heart to God your heart so that the overflow will

be not really you know, don't overflow it bad stuff.

Let's overflow with the goodness that God has for us. Amen.

Let's let's once again cast our eyes on Jesus this

morning and find strength in him. Amen. Amen. We want

to God our hearts.
