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

We hope this message will light up your day.
-
God wants us to be united in our faith first right,
-
united in our faith in Man. Thanks Reining. Then I
-
could see that she likes to give instruction. Hallelujah the
-
Lord baby right. He wants to be united to work
-
with someone we have now worked with. I'm going to
-
show you from scripture off towards because all it start
-
is a decision you made to claim that he is
-
a lot of your life. So if you have your
-
Bible right now, would you turn to some strainy tree.
-
I apologize again. I do not have slights. I really
-
I tried, Okay, I just don't know if slides I wanted.
-
I did slides I did. I did try slides. I
-
put all my nose into check GBT right to correct,
-
not not not for points. Okay, just why let you
-
I didn't ask Chgibt for points, sermon points right to
-
correct my grandmar And after correcting my grandma, I thought
-
it was done. Really, I sent it to my other
-
che Gibt, which is my wife, to correct my grandma
-
that was corrected by JGBT. And she's She just asked
-
me a question. I don't understand your slides. I said,
-
why because I don't answer what point you want to
-
get across to? I said, this is che gibts reached
-
my words. I thought sounded sounded cheap, sounded deep. So
-
the the more deep sounding your slights are, the more
-
intellectual you may sound like. Right, So I told my
-
wife that, you know, it sounded really deep, and I
-
thought it makes sense. She said, if I don't understand it,
-
if my bilingual mind don't understand it, trys how to
-
translate it to a mandrid, I can guarantee you your
-
English people will not understand it as well. Okay, so
-
out it goes. I try not have slides because I'm
-
so I really try to really try it right, so
-
I'm not re So some street was one? All right,
-
here we go, just leave. We can live, regent the
-
most eligible batchelor. Can you just live? The slides on
-
the scripture were all right. I want you to know
-
that other church plan girls are asking for your phone number.
-
All right, so x so many single lady, X so many.
-
If you don't want him, right, let us know, Okay,
-
because other church Pland girls are queuing up. Oh please, stigger,
-
come please sting you sure not? Oh no, take a
-
come back here? Right? Okay, yeah, okay not x not
-
export out okay, no, no, okay, because because you really
-
taken on to export a cancer kidding? Sorry, sorry, okay, come,
-
let's look at scriptures, all right. The Lord is my shepherd.
-
I shall not want I want to be after wing
-
the LODs my shepherd many times your journey, friends, in
-
your journey, right, you have said this before. The Lord
-
is my shepherd. The Lord is love of my life.
-
He is my lord, my savior. Correct not how many
-
of you know from making him a lot over your
-
life comes a realization that your life is all taken
-
care of to a place whereby he says that I
-
shall not be in want, which means to say you
-
can come to a place whereby not just recognizing him
-
as law, but he is a lord that loves you,
-
loves you because once you know that you are love friends,
-
you know everything else can be overcome. Now, our love
-
birds right now got married yesterday. Fresh air and sunshine
-
is all that they need right now. They're not thinking
-
about like what to do after the honeymoon. They're not
-
looking at the power of clothes they have to wash later.
-
They're not even thinking about the dirt. I can guarantee them.
-
It's not thinking about the hair on the floor you
-
shall encounter in your coming days. For those of you
-
who are marry, you understand the hairs on the floor.
-
We should can compile together to make a small little pillow. Right,
-
this zup is not thinking about that. He's just thinking
-
about like my wife, I'm in love. Right, Hey, the
-
scripture or no? The scripture is so good? The girl
-
texting DM you down? Is it? Okay? Okay, they'll be distracted, right,
-
Just leave the scripture, Just leave the scipture. Just thank you,
-
thank you? All right. So therefore, friends, the Lord is
-
your shepherd, your shepherd, your shepherd, and many I actually
-
don't build on the relationship. Come on, everyone say relationship.
-
It's very important for you to build on the relationship.
-
Because whilce you built on the relationship, you can come
-
to the next part of scripture. I shall not be
-
in one because if there is luck in the relationship,
-
what happens you start looking out The girlfriend I have
-
with been right now, I like everything about her, But
-
this one part I don't understand her, maybe because you
-
have not taken time to understand, right. I've known people
-
who've told me before, all right, this is many years ago,
-
so I have no reference to your Thank God, I
-
don't talk to any of yours, so don't think I'm
-
hitting out anybody. So I have a say this to us,
-
all right, So I like to make reference to my
-
years of doing church. So I've count guys before they say, elder,
-
I like this girl, very nice, very pretty, oh good.
-
I don't like her anger. She got this temper once
-
and all will flail when everybody has to go under
-
the rod or in the cave. I canna. I've been
-
scolded by her many times, but that I like the
-
other girl, not as pretty, but her temperament is so nice.
-
If only I can merge. I want I want you
-
to know right that beyond the external, that's the interior,
-
the soul, the person. And because many times we know
-
that he is lot right, but how many we know
-
him as a shepherd, a good shepherd for your life
-
to a place whereby you can totally be are rendered
-
and knowing that your needs, your future no matter what
-
you're going to, it's taking care by the good shepherd.
-
It takes time to build their relationship. And the problem
-
with modern day Christianity is this the moment you get safe,
-
you lift up your hands, I receive Jesus into my heart.
-
What happens. They're sort of like a magical moment. I
-
would say, all right, and cat magical moment that we
-
assume that you know how to worship. Think about it.
-
You know what worship is all about because you see
-
other people come to church on Sunday, they sing a
-
couple of songs on the screen, and you you equit
-
that as worship, not knowing that the word worship is
-
deeper than hand slides of worship song. Right, So it
-
does take time for you to build the relationship to
-
a place where my eyes shall not be in one.
-
That's why when you're in love, there is a lot
-
of phone calls that transpire.
-
It.
-
When you are passionate about a project, there will be
-
a lot of conversation that will take place. Passion can
-
be seen, and passion and these passionate people also can
-
be seen. I'm not interested. I don't want to do this.
-
When you're passionate about food, you're talking all the time.
-
So the Lord is your shepherd. Come on, I shall
-
not be in one. It takes time to build a
-
relationship and also for you to completely trust your future.
-
What does the Bible say, Jeremiah, that you are in
-
the Lord's hand, just like c is in my hands,
-
so is your life, no matter what you see on
-
the outside. Friends, One day, friends, you will grow slightly older. Gentlemen,
-
I want to let you know the head that you
-
have right now. One day it will be like me.
-
You'll be set free from any hair product. In the
-
name of Jesus. No more shampoo, no more than need
-
to wake up to see that we side to come. Hallelujah,
-
praise the Lord. Amen. Right, one day you come to
-
a place whereby you go slightly older that the Lord
-
must and still should be your shepherd. Many times I
-
tell you what the challenge is. I can make him
-
the Lord of the Lord is my shepherd. When I'm
-
a campus student and as a campus suit, you're passionate,
-
you're on fire, you are doing things for the Lord.
-
But the moment you transition, you graduate, all right, yeah,
-
I'm with a degree. You enter the working world, and
-
those of whim you know, those of you who are working,
-
you understand now from Monday to Friday. Your schedule is fixed.
-
I want to let you know. Your lunch places is fixed.
-
There's only so many lunch places you can go to
-
unless you're doing sales. Right fix. What's not fixed is
-
your waistline. Your waistline will grow right now, Fred the
-
Lord is your shepherder. When you're a campus student, follow mina.
-
Now you start graduating, you graduate, you enter the working world.
-
The moment you step into any company, what happens. You're
-
the youngest or one of the youngest, right, you got
-
seniors who are there. I'll let you know. I was
-
in a particular education institution and one guy just joining
-
the institution from a public union when a private UNI,
-
and he was one year in a in a in
-
a private UNI. And the person a colleague was talking
-
to spent five years reading in the public in a
-
private UNI. He asked a question, how do you do
-
survive five years in this university? How are you do
-
survive five years? Because this is my first year, I
-
feel like critically, really, the students are crazy. Every small
-
they want to complain takes the head of the department.
-
I have to give an answer why I might treat
-
you soon like that. He was just sharing pol I
-
could feel his hard He's going to cry really so
-
then asking me how can I didn't get full Marx?
-
My answer is all right, and the electricity. But this
-
is a check Gibt answer. You did your project, your
-
check Gibt and this is typical jet DBT. How you
-
know I asked the AI to do my homework. Let
-
me ask you a couple of questions. If you can
-
answer me, prove that you know my subject. I brock,
-
I apologize, I give you the mouth. Ask him true
-
questions two casts you can answer. So if you can
-
answer my question, how are you going to explain? You
-
to give you full mouth? I want my full out.
-
So you see all these things, all these things that
-
parents got involved. He got so drained right, and many
-
types of journey as well as a cameras saer, Yes,
-
the Lord is my shepherd. I shalln't be in one
-
right your gung hole you're on fired the moment you
-
enter the working world, you go in there environment changer.
-
I'm going sure from scripture after the environment change. So
-
scripture said I shall not be in one. Then you
-
hear about people moving on the career path. They path
-
are moving on. You're in me that superior say to you,
-
I cannot promote you this year because I promise a
-
promotion to my ad versus helping me to do my
-
work at the very moment for its Come on, you
-
feel like killing your superior? Not you're honestly are Christians
-
sabre felt it before? I understand that, right, I got
-
so someone to I cannot promote you because I promote
-
I promise a promotion to someone else. And you go.
-
Let that every every month, you come in early. Every day,
-
you come in early. You mixture you, you finish your
-
word and set all the email, join in all the
-
social activity, just to be seen and to be heard.
-
Only let me in the disappointment stage. I shall not
-
be in one. The Bible says that you know you
-
our hope. It's not in the world. I hope it's
-
in the lot. So next scripture verse two, he makes
-
me lie down green past year. Come on, all right,
-
it comes from I shall not be in one. I
-
thought there's enough. Really, no friends. Magina the state of
-
knowing that God is a shepherd. There's no lack, no worries,
-
no thinking what my food's going to come? Where my
-
food's going to come from to a place of worse. Two,
-
he leads me into green pasture. Maybe, and perhaps in
-
our own personal wisdom, we've been searching eating what seems
-
to be green but not green. I want you just
-
think about it for a moment. There's too many people
-
I know, consuming what things, what they thought is healthy
-
but not really healthy. Did you know that in your
-
body that you need about thirty grams of fiber a day?
-
Thirty grams of fiber a day right now? No matter
-
what health brings you drinking, what powered you you're drinking
-
right If you look at the labor the recommend this
-
could be some the two scoops. Right in the two
-
scoops you read, what you get is zero point three
-
percent fiber. Think about and you're supposed to have a
-
thirty grand fiber intake a day. That maybe, Oh I'm
-
healthy right now, so I'm consuming this. I think I
-
can manage this. After all, I'm alive and well, I'm
-
still going to church. Think about it. I'm still going
-
to church. I'm still going to homes and participating. But
-
the Bible here says the first part of the scripture says,
-
he leads you Come on, everyone, say he leads you,
-
you must come to place from verse one, I shall
-
not be one. The trust is there, and when the
-
trust is their friends leading is never a problem. Come on,
-
when the trust is their leading can now will never
-
be a problem. When the husband begin to show that
-
he is the man of his word, the wife trusts
-
him even more. If the husband said i'll cook dinner,
-
by that should ride back from hope. Right by that
-
should ride back from work. The dinner is not cook
-
at all, but the ingredients are there. Here's dinner. I
-
didn't tell you that you're supposed to cook once. Maybe
-
you take a husband may be tired, you forgive twice,
-
maybe really tired, But three times very hard, isn't it?
-
Some of us here right we say I'll be there
-
seven pm, seven fifteen, seven thirty seven thirty five. You're
-
not even the men of our own words. So sometimes
-
you go for appointment, go like god. This guy is
-
known to be late on no no, no ex me.
-
I know X. Many people are always on time on
-
all right, so maybe always on time one right? These
-
are the just one issue, right, And if you know
-
the individual is not on time, what happens? There's a
-
certain expectation that you cannot fully trust even though the
-
appointment is at seven pm? Right? Not? How may you
-
know that? For you to be led by the shepherd,
-
you have to trust the shepherd. You have to trust
-
the shepherd. So the Bible says that he leads me
-
to lie down. Come on, he leads me to lie down.
-
What if you're very active ship? Think about that? What happened?
-
If you're a very active ship, it's hard. It is
-
hard to lie down. Some of you've got cats, you understand.
-
Have you told the cat lie down? Here? Docs are
-
slightly easier, I think, right, you ask the cat to
-
lie down? The one? I think so? I think I
-
saw so many cat videos, so I think that is
-
not as overdre as do. Okay, I'm wrong, Okay, I'm
-
a doctor. Live right. Uh? He makes you let up
-
by green pastures. It's very important for you and me
-
to understand this, that the green pasture is not chosen
-
by us. Very important. Now, the green pasture is not
-
chosen by us, And sometimes it's how we choose a
-
green pasture. God, this must be the place you want
-
me to work. Why the salary is higher? Nothing wrong
-
with salary for it, so please please, I'm not knocking
-
on a salary, all right, hire the salary the better
-
we understand that, right, praise all hallelujah, more more offering
-
to the Lord the only by teslay, please Loujah, don't
-
Why did they come up from so many times? Isn't
-
it true? We choose our green pastures right or higher salary?
-
This must be the place like this is your promised land, Floyd,
-
and this must be your promised land. But your green
-
pastures I'm gonna show your farm screwed comes with the
-
value of shadow of death. Think about it. If you
-
are given a choice, you want to choose green pastures,
-
the greener passes to the greeners pasture all the way.
-
I how many you want to choose green pasture? The
-
next two scripture shows that there's a value or shadow
-
of death one. The next one is that you put
-
a table in front of me, before me, in front
-
of my present, of my enemy. You won't choose the
-
path if you know that was a career path. Think
-
about it. If that was your career path, sign up
-
to company a right now, green last year steel waters
-
for you? All right? Then you flip next paitch first
-
quarter of lookd ten more minutes point one? Yet okay,
-
missus sorrier, many times you choose now green pastures. Right,
-
if you know that you're supposed to go to the
-
value of a shadow of death, you won't you one
-
to join the company, isn't it true? Let me share
-
a testimony with you. So this year two year two
-
five marks my fifth year anniversary of having my heart attack.
-
Five years really at my heart attack on the age
-
of forty five, so I fifty. This year and fifth
-
year also marks my first stand I've done in my heart.
-
I did a stand on my heart fifth year. So
-
every five years told myself I got to go to
-
a city scan, just to make sure that on the
-
right path. Now, if your God calls you home early,
-
calls you home, ali, right, you can never but if
-
you can avoid it or whiter, you can't be beach
-
and eating and just you know, like, oh it's okay,
-
the blood we give thanks for the food, the really
-
or go down the window and stuff like that. Right,
-
it doesn't wake the way, Okay, you understand that, right,
-
So free if you really so, I did my city
-
scan now I'm not sure how many if you did
-
a city scan of your heart before. But if you
-
have not done it, just let me share you the journey. Right,
-
so you're supposed to go to a particular room with
-
this particular machine. But before that, say so, I let
-
you know if we're gonna inject you with iodin. Right,
-
inject you, You're gonna feel warm. You're gonna feel warm.
-
You go, Wow, this feels like God's presence life. Feel warm.
-
People pray for you if you warm? No, no, does
-
a feel like that? So the moment the inject you
-
or I let you know how hard it works. Okay,
-
your hate your heat. You feel the heat first. Then
-
then you know how your wind works. Okay, it flows
-
all the readout your chest area. Want you know, you
-
feel very warm. Right, Finally it goes into your abdominant
-
eva and you feel like I want the pad. It's
-
all warmed down there. You go like God. Right, I
-
mean a mission for half an hour quite long this time.
-
I don't know why. About half an hour I thought
-
what was wrong with it? Half an hour? So by
-
the time I have to see the specialist mychologists. Right,
-
if he calls you to his consultation room, you're more
-
or less okay. One but the moment he calls you
-
it into that scan the room where the imaging room is. Right,
-
then you know that not very good? Say me, someone,
-
come and let me show you something. Let me show
-
you something. And we're like, okay, God, please let me
-
the attest to me that he couldn't find my old
-
stand anymore. The law is supernaturally healed. Right, he said, mister,
-
your old stand very good. I love good news, very good.
-
Looks at brand new. I just like put in yesterday,
-
like that discipliner, the whole. The discipline is not every morning.
-
It's almost tense. Stick of celery you blend and you drink.
-
If I can't find sealuary I got just blend the
-
bit you plain water and just drink it nice, not
-
too bad. The only the effect is this that you
-
put your color as all. But not no problem. Right,
-
very good. But but but that's one part. There's one
-
part we discover could be a very bad blockage. You
-
may die like got it? What on earth? I'm serious.
-
It must understand that five years of medication, five years
-
of changing diet people, it is changing from me. I
-
say no, you must have the rejection of the fatty
-
pot in front of you and your friend some of
-
you understand this. You don't like chicken skin, and you
-
give away your chicken skin. The kevesic chicken skin. You
-
take it out, you threw it away, right right? No?
-
Still young? Still ya? All right? Still yeah, you're still young?
-
All right? Okay, I spoke these when the speaker Obama say,
-
oh no, no, give us a chicken skin please. All right,
-
So you understand. You went through the whole regime, the
-
process of of following, and this is what happens. This
-
is what happens. I read in there trying to process everything, like,
-
why on earth did this block? This narrowing happened because
-
you would disciplined. You did all you want, all right,
-
Ki Lisa, the Lord is your shepherd. I shall not
-
be one he leaves me. Besides, he leads me the
-
light of green pastures. Why is there being? Michael? Everyone
-
say go back to there. It's okay, it's okay, you're family,
-
all right. They can't have a good honeymoon, all right, Okay,
-
why dicide are here? Good news? All right? Hallelujah? Praised
-
a lot twins at least. Okay, start with tweets, then
-
you then you close shut after that, all right, So
-
it starts with makes it like that great past sea waters.
-
You've done everything, go to worse, the next, the next worse,
-
and the next worse. You've done everything everything correct? Comes
-
this scripture, Do I walk to the value or shadow
-
of death? Come on? And when you hear these he
-
makes you lie down and he makes you to drink.
-
Then why day on earth he has to bring it
-
to worse?
-
Four?
-
Because as a Christian, friends, don't you think some strainergy
-
will be perfect if it ended at worse? Two? Green pasture,
-
steel waters, Amen, Hallujah full stop? Sure or not? So?
-
I got my result coming for an angel Graham immediately
-
because possibility that all the weekeed you may have a
-
heart attack because the passage is very narrow, looks really bad.
-
On top of it, your arterial walls got some this
-
for some reformation all bad news, you know, friends, comes
-
my junior walking through the radio shadow of death. And
-
I thought to myself, like God, then why the five years?
-
Come on? Betweent salary and chalcolate? Who wins it? Chalcoal?
-
Because it's tastier, right, Big rude and Bacon come on,
-
bigot and Bacon excep you be honest. How many riches
-
be rute? Only one? Only one? Right? Bacon anytime? Corying on,
-
I understand, understand, tasty, understand right. Five years of discipline
-
with your diet, and sometimes in our life you'll be
-
fooling the Lord. Yes, it makes you lie down your experiences. Goodness,
-
the one on earth? Am I going to worse for?
-
Right now? Why something? You are going to your worst for?
-
Right now? The valley? Right? You don't understanding God? I
-
come to church every week, I give my offering. Everywhere
-
I serve you, I pray, I read my Bible. But
-
why worse for coming on a Monday to do your endrogram?
-
So when on a Monday? Do you know my endrogram?
-
When in there? First thing, I say, have you shaved? Mister?
-
Did you shave your hand? Really not? I said, no,
-
one told me to shave my hand. Pass me a shave,
-
electronic shave. I want you to know how Gilly this
-
is right shave. I don't know how many other patients
-
never cleaned before one, sir. I want you to shave
-
right now. Go to to shave your arm and also
-
your leg. One lick a nurse just in case you
-
got problem with your arm. You go to the lake. Now,
-
if you have never done it before, you never understand this.
-
My friends, it's not fun with my friend's new help.
-
So all I need to do I went in there,
-
line out in the operation theater. A couple of days
-
of went through my mind. The moment someone has to
-
operated on your few days to run you on my mind,
-
you're talking about giving birth. No, when they are to
-
operate on you. First they kep to my mind, was
-
is that you as a preacher? Right? Yeah? What are
-
you holding on to? M hm? So when you go
-
to the value of shadow of death right they will say,
-
I will not fear no either, for you are with me.
-
So what are you holding onto in the valley? Very important?
-
What are you holding on as been Christian for any
-
sometime or already for some one year, some maybe ten
-
years really so in the past ten years, what scripture
-
you have in your system that you're holding onto when
-
you have to go to the valley and your office,
-
someone over takes you, maybe cut you, cut you, or
-
maybe betray you, whatever it is threads in that valley moment?
-
What are you holding onto that you can repel the
-
emotions that's trying to take over your system because a
-
lot of times if you have not dealt with it. Yes,
-
the Lord is your shepherd, I shall not be in one,
-
no problem at time he makes you lie down. That's
-
why those image of Jesus steal waters and green past
-
yourselves very well. Imagine right now we see anybody trying
-
to tell you the value or shadow of death, not
-
the image of Jesus. Value. Shall know no one sells
-
the kind of picture because it doesn't really sells. But
-
what are you holding on to? For me lying down
-
their friends? It's like, so what do you pitch last Sunday?
-
Do you believe what you're preaching it? Do you believe
-
what you believe in it? I'm not asking the split hairs,
-
and I'm not asking us hold on to what you're
-
committed to. Hold on because if you say the Lord
-
is your shepherd, I shall not be one being one right,
-
hold on to that when you go to the valley.
-
It's scary. I was lying down there a few things
-
you don't hear. You do not want to hear what
-
the doctor have to say. Halfway operating on your nerves faster,
-
nurves quicker a bit. You're lying down there being operated.
-
You're talking, What on earth is happening right now? Are
-
you bleaning to to death? So they give me a
-
jeb Okay, so I won't feel the pain. It's true,
-
you're now you're not going to feel the pain. Man,
-
But you know what they did not promise. He says,
-
you do not feel the pain, doesn't mean you do not.
-
That doesn't mean that you won't feel the discomfort. Pain
-
and discomfort are two separate thing altogether. They have to
-
insert a tree and then try a cable into my
-
right hand. I'll tell you how it is. Right. It's
-
like it's like something below your skin like that, like
-
that that your kitchen pipe is start. You have to
-
force it in to clear out some things. That's the
-
kind of feeling like I feel like he's forcing something in.
-
I'm like, I'm like, let me switch position and may
-
ask you. I'm not sure why my cud professional always
-
ask a patient no pin good? You remember going to dentist?
-
Is it pain not? Is it pain? Of painful? Painful?
-
You go? Let do I have a choice? Right? So
-
I'm like, okay, anyway, anyway, just got that ship. I
-
shall not I will not feel no evil, for your
-
for me. If you're right and your stuff comforts me,
-
this is how I'm going to close. He went in there,
-
do what he needs to do. That he shows me
-
the screen, shows me the screen in front of me.
-
M is, it looks like it's not that bad and
-
what we thought it was? Please God, PRI's God comforter?
-
Please God? But where was the scriptures? Where was David
-
still of death the MESA, he's still in the really
-
no friends, but I won't let you know. Mister Wong,
-
your arterial walls right, it looks like you've got swollen
-
arterial wars. I go, like, what on earth? How do
-
you guys? Swollen arterial walls? Yeah, So the other nurse
-
came up to me, mister, are you a chain smoker?
-
Are you a cheap I say, like, no, my church
-
life incense here right? Are you a cheese book? I
-
said no, I'm not. Okay, very strange, very strange. You
-
have the narrowing passage looks like then that the three walls,
-
that's that's narrow, looks like your normal arterial size. It
-
looks you're the one that causing you the milli narrow
-
is your TiAl walls could be swollen the bit. Maybe
-
your lining is no longer there. I won't do a
-
stent on you right now. I'll give you medication. You
-
monitor it all right, just watch your diet. I tell
-
you everything's okay. By the time you die, you don't
-
have to do it. And understand I said, okay, let's
-
let's go for it. This is how I'm going to close.
-
Many times in our life we want God really to
-
spare us from the value or shadow of death. Spare
-
us from value of shadow of death, because it's never nice.
-
The scripture put that and that stuff comforts me. Use
-
the word comfort. He didn't use the word encourage. He
-
used the word comfort, which means to say, at the
-
value there there are tears come on. The descripture is
-
value of shadow of death. Death is a finality. You know,
-
there's there's no other chapters after death. And that says
-
so like physically, there's no other chapters after death with
-
death is the end. But even in the face of death, friends,
-
all that encourage you from David, you and I are
-
not to be fearful. You're going to face people who
-
are who think that in control of your life, who
-
speak words that almost I say that without me you
-
cannot achieve it. But the Bible says that he's a shepherd.
-
We shall not be in one as much as won't
-
declare to you. Right now, you shall not fear because
-
you're rod and your stuff comforts me. You see, it
-
takes the one word before this, then just one word
-
before this, to show you as close he restored my soul. Friends,
-
he takes you in the path of righteousness. It takes
-
him leading you to understand his word. And that's why
-
when you walk through the valley, friends, there is no fear,
-
because it is his word transforming you. When you walk through, friends,
-
any really of your life, no fear. Friends, it is
-
very fearful. True, anything in our life fearful. Whatever you
-
eat these day, people say it's cancer causing anything. Right now,
-
you don't know what to trust any more? Friends, right
-
the world is going crazy? True? Right, well, what do
-
you do? As believers? You therefore therefore like not leave
-
any more. No, he said, he leads me in. Come on,
-
he says, leads me into the path of righteousness. This
-
path is very important because many times we want our
-
own way, and that's why we will never choose the
-
value or shadow of death. Because it takes endurance to
-
go to the valley. God will place us there to
-
experience his rod and his staff. Come on, God will
-
place us there to know and to and to become
-
people more real. That he's your shepherd, and you shall
-
not be in one. It's easy to say that he's
-
your shepherd. It shall not be in a moment. Everything
-
is good, When everything's all right. When you got not
-
a problem right now, you pray two minutes later the
-
answer King, But what happened? If gets stretched over time,
-
and things that get stretched over time, I'm friends. Then
-
you put your trust in the Lord. It's how I'm
-
going to close as I write the shamum on the stage.
-
It takes relationship first. The Lord's my shepherd. I shall
-
have been one. Relationship must always always with the lot
-
be led to a place of surrender. He leads me,
-
by steel waters and green pastures. Stop defining your steel waters,
-
Stop taking your own green pastures. There's too many Christians
-
I know selecting their own green pastures is better than
-
somewhere else. My great militia got no more hope, abandoned
-
the same God that you serve. Let's say in Australia's
-
the same God that we served over here Malaysia. If
-
we say God can transform, might not transform Malaysia. It's
-
the same The same Lord that brought revival to many
-
nations might not bring revival here in Malaysia. If we
-
say his Lord over this land and this nation, and
-
we say that we are blessed, let me they share
-
with you one of our the reason why extras exists
-
and why we decide to go grow. Small churches in
-
Malaysia are below eighty people of seventy people majority. Majority
-
of the senior passes right now are in the sixties.
-
Sixties given ten to fifteen years time. Friends. If there
-
is no successor the churches will close as an urban church.
-
If we say that this is our land and this
-
is our nation, and if we don't do something about it,
-
then we can't blame anyone else but the church by ourselves,
-
that we allow the thing to slide. Some obviously are
-
gifted with languages. If we don't maximize the language, don't
-
sing the song that God help us understand. I don't
-
speak hockey, but my desire is God. If you can
-
trans can use anyone use a broken hooken to reach.
-
One more for Jesus. I don't be one. I don't
-
be fighting over another English song. This is too many
-
in our language. Come on, you can imagine this right
-
now in your that particular language. One more for Jesus.
-
If you can translate this our song into French, why not?
-
But you must believe that He is your shepherd. He
-
makes you uncomfortable, of course. Did you know, our friends,
-
Let me just share this one my more point of view.
-
Did you know it's so hard to lead worship in
-
multi languages? Let me just share some background view. Some
-
people will just say this, stop making this to be
-
like a Chinese church. God, just show the lyrics. Don't
-
need to sing God. It's hard, friends, it's hard. It's
-
much easier come out obviously English, it's much easier to
-
produce one. Super easy. Everybody understand, work together, different language heard,
-
But God wants it. He blesses you, green pastures, sealwaters,
-
blesses you ready, your friends. Pathway of righteousness is unity.
-
Would you take the path not? Because if you're willing
-
to take that path comes the next challenge, the valley.
-
I want to give up. I don't like this. People,
-
just let me share one true story with you. One
-
leader was so angry with another person that wur church angry. Angry.
-
I called the person, the person the answer, I singing
-
the person. The person didn't see. I shouted, tought of
-
my voice. They respond, keep talking to other people, keep
-
ignoring me. Then we talk to this leader and say, look,
-
did you know she's from a deaf community. Did you
-
know that she was from my death community? That's why
-
she couldn't hear you. Really of the shadow of deva,
-
really of disunity in even next year as well the valley.
-
Come on, we are supposed to overcome the valley. I'm
-
speaking to you right now. Some of you gonna face
-
the toughest challenge in front of you, the value of
-
the shadow of death. It's all right. You're gonna get
-
bruises dirty, It is okay. The Bible does not say
-
that stuff cleanses me. I come up like a good
-
white shirt. It's not guarantee you or that you'll not
-
be dirty, and neither did they guarantee you your have
-
been placed. It just means that you'll be comforted inside.
-
Because what's really important, your internal you at peace you're
-
surrounding to be the value of shadow of death. Right now,
-
you're at peace. As I close. Right now, you trust
-
in the shepherd that knows you by name, The good
-
shepherd that look up for you, who live the ninety
-
nine they go after the One. The good shepherd who
-
knows not to abandon you when they see a wolf
-
or bear or even a lion. The good Shepherd that
-
knows what our fears and our tears. The good Shepherd
-
that created you so specious.
-
This way, we hope you've been blessed by this message.
