This Is The Way | Pr Steven Soon

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

will light up your day. I want to do us to turn to scripture

real quick. Daniel for seven, and then four seventeen, and then after

that verse twenty five. Okay, if you have your Bible, if you

flip open, it's always good to practice flipping your Bible. If not,

you can use your e Bible, and if not, you can look at

the slights here. Okay, let's read the word of God now, Daniel

four seventeen sixty. This decision is by the decree of the watchers and the

sentenced by the word of the Holy Ones, in order that the leaving may

know that the most high rules in the Kingdom of Men, gives it to

whomever he will, and sets over it the lowest of men. Verse twenty

five. They shall drive you from men. Now this is all right.

The U is nebul Canzer's addressed to King nebul Canezzer. They shall drive you

from men. Your duelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and

they shall make you eat grass like oxen. I remember last time, we

always joke with two hungry eat grass. Now they shall wet you with the

dew of Heaven and seven times and possibly this is seven years shall pass over

you till you know that the most High rules in the Kingdom of men and

gives it to whommever he chooses. The theme of ex Church this year is

that all you know? And he's taken from precisely this scripture last year.

What was the theme for X Church last year? You guys, remember Heaven

rules. That's right, It's also taken from Daniel four. And you can

see it's also in the same portion of scripture. Now, we spoke relatively

last year about how Heaven actually rules in our life. That even though there

are there are kings and dominions and governments in place, there are rules and

laws of the land, there are also rules and laws of Heaven that supersedes

the rules and laws of this land. Heaven rules, whether we believe it

or not. That is reality, that is truth. And we talked a

lot about that last year, about how in order for us to experience breakthrough

in our life, in order for us to grow close with God, we

must first recognize that Heaven is the ultimate authority. What Heaven says it goes,

What God says it goes, if you look at some versions of your

Bible, when he says Heaven rules in the footnote, you'll say God.

Right, So it's interchangeable. When we say Heaven rules, we are saying

God rules. Now this year we're going to talk about we have established that

Heaven rules. Now we're going to talk about that all may know Heaven rules

now that we know we shouldn't keep it to ourselves. The rest of the

world out there are deprived of the presence of God, are deprived of the

Word of God. And we should also go so that and tell them so

that all the lead that the leaving may know that the most High rules,

that Heaven rules. All right, If you're interested to hear more of Bussard

spoke quite quite quite a bit of Bussa can spoke quite a bit about this.

You can actune into our Spotify. I believe it'll be edited in the

coming days, in the next week or so, and you'll be up on

our Spotify. You can go and have a listen uh to what Passa Cande

has preached today. What I want to share this is the topic. This

is the way the people who love you know, the reference with people who

don't love You're probably like, what's so funny about this? It's a Star

Wars reference, but it's okay, definitely above your heads. But yes,

this is the way. Now we all know Jesus say that I'm the Way,

the Truth and the life. And today what God has put in my

heart is to share about the Kingdom way. A Bassa can also try the

month of February preacher about you, guys, remember what bus preach about the

first three weeks exam time, exam time, two weeks us to preach on

the series he preached on the Kingdom of God. All right, that was

why he preached on. He preached about the Kingdom of God. And that

will be our foundation and basis for today's message. And we're gonna look at

the first point, the Kingdom way. I'm gonna talk a lot about this.

This is quite a beef segment, but we'll see where God leads,

all right, So we're gonna look at scripture again, Luke, chapter four,

verse forty two to for the three Now, when it was there,

he departed and went into a deserted place, and the crowd sought him and

came to him and tried to keep him from leaving. Them. But he

said to them, I must preach the Kingdom of God to the other cities,

also because for the purpose I have been sent. Look Chapter nine,

verses one to two. Then he called his twelve disciples together and gave them

power and authority over all the humans, wow and to cure diseases. He

sent them to preach the Kingdom of God and to heal the sick Matthew six

nine to ten. You recognize this as the Lord's prayer in this manner,

Therefore, pray our Father in Heaven. Hello it beyond name your Kingdom.

Come. All will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Now

ill mark these few scriptures as I share a little bit more about this.

The Kingdom of God has to be preached. That's why Jesus went to do

it. The Kingdom of God has to be preached. That's why he sent

the disciples to do it. See the action step. Now, Jesus demonstrated

it needs to be preached. Now, why does the Kingdom of God have

to be preached? The Kingdom of God is preached that all may know.

Heaven rules. The Kingdom weighs are the highest and they are the solution to

all and for all let me just dissect this a little bit lengthy, a

lot of words there, all right, I think for the Christians and the

believers here you will recognize that there are two ways actually ultimately in doing things

in this world. There are principles of the world and their principles of the

Kingdom of Heaven. Right. I'm going to give some example, Okay,

but before I go there, I want to ask this question. Do you

believe that God has all the answers? We have to establish that first,

because if you don't believe that God has all the answers, whatever I say

next will not make sense to you at all. Now, I trust if

you are a Christian, you will say, yes, God has all the

answers and it's all written here in the world of God. Right. Then,

if you say God has all the answers, are you convinced that God

has all the solutions to all your problems? Wow? Resounding yes, that's

great to hear. I'm going to go a bit deeper. Do you believe

that God has solutions for family conflict? Yeah? Do you believe that God

has solutions for your financial rules? Yeah? Do you believe that God has

all the answers to parenting. Yeah, business owners here, do you believe

that God has all the answers to running your business? Yes? Right,

it's great to hear this, But there are many times I'm going to be

very honest here. I hope you guys can take it. But know that

I'm speaking from my heart. I'm not talking about you guys. Okay,

I'm not talking about you guys. You guys are fantastic, all right,

I'm not talking about you all right. There many times I encounter Christians who

also answer like this, Yes, this is the authority, the ultimate authority,

and all solutions, all blueprints and living life life is in here.

But yet, when it comes to running a business, sometimes there are a

lot of compromises that happen because we draw the line where we go everyone's doing

it. If I don't do it, I rougie rougie in basa. You

know it means basically, I will I will lose out, I will lose

profit. Man the process of securing this contract, if I do it the

proper way, it's gonna take me one year. But if I insert some

money in the envelope and pass it under the table, I can get approval

next week. Very real stuff. When we say that God has all the

solutions to our family, do we really mean it? Because sometimes if there

is the answer, God may ask you to do things that are very uncomfortable

that goes against every grain of the belief of this world. We're gonna dive

deeper into that later, Okay. So I just want to draw some of

this dichotomy or duality of how there are ways of the world and their ways

of God. It's very clear. It's very clear there are ways of the

world and there are ways of God. I'm going to give you some example

of the scripture about Kingdom principles and the Kingdom way. You know, when

Jesus was performing signs and wonders, he wasn't doing party tricks. I just

just to lay on the table, you know. Of course we know this

general knowledge. Jesus when he was on earth, he did signs and wonders.

Of course many were recorded as miracles, but there are many that weren't

recorded. He did signs and wonders. He wasn't doing party tricks. In

case you're wondering, he wasn't like, let me show you I'm God,

therefore I can do all these caut tricks. He wasn't doing that. He

wasn't trying to be a magician. What he was doing with his signs and

wonders was that he was meeting needs. He was healing, he was casting

out demons, he was providing. And I give you some example. All

right, let me talk about the woman with the issue of blood in Mark

chapter five. We all know this scripture very familiar. There's this woman who

despite and I think the last sermon or two and I AP preached about this

quite quite in depth, so I won't go into it, but I just

always say that in that moment the woman came, there was multitude squeezing Jesus.

Many were curious about this healer. Many were probably like, maybe I

can take a chance and see if you do a miracle for me. But

then there was this woman who came with desperate me. Tried everything she can

for twelve years, spent all her fortune emitting healers, even maybe shamans,

maybe different ways to try to get herself here. Did everything, but she

realized only Jesus can heal. She squeezed. I can imagine she was squeezing

true and with her shamer. I share about this, right, someone with

the issue of blood is basically, if you're wondering what you meet. Issue

of blood basically the thing that women go through every month, once a month,

imagine that every day. And she experienced that for top years. And

in Jewish culture is considered unclean, So she was an unclean woman. People

probably did not want to come close to her. But there she was bracing

her not thinking about embarrassment or shame. Squeeze away. True, because she

believed that Jesus would heal, touched the garment of Jesus. In that moment,

power float out of Jesus and she was healed. And you know what

Jesus said, your faith has healed you. In the same chapter we talk

about Gyrus. Right before the woman came, there was Gyrous who came,

my daughter is dying, right, And Jesus, of course, when took

a little detour to Hell the woman with the issue of blood, and I

can imagine Giros were probably panicking. But then when finally Jesus arrived at home,

actually before he arrived at Gyrus's house, a servant came and already told

them, you don't have to burden the teacher. Your daughter has passed on,

right, do you know what Jesus said, don't be afraid, only

believe the Kingdom principle. The Kingdom way that I want to present to you

here is faith. The ways of the world will probably say continue finding other

medication. Right now, the word is like this, wishy? Was she

faith stuff going to heal you? The woman did not care what others thing

she had faith. His daughter died because no, Maybe Jesus, you know,

he probably was thinking, if Jesus did not go and heal that woman,

he'll probably reach my daughter in time. But yet Jesus said, don't

be afraid, only believe. And what happened. Jyrs chose to believe,

and the daughter came back to life. Dalita cam Jesus said, little one

rise and she rose. In John four, Jesus met the woman at a

well. She was a woman that had previously five husbands, and then Jesus

said, even the person you're living with now isn't your husband. She had

a longing to fail. I believe the reason why she was going from one

person to the other was because she was experienced a certain form of emptiness,

belonging to love and be loved. Maybe she was from a broken family,

I don't know there was a need. The world would probably tell this woman

continue finding the right man. You still haven't found the right one yet,

or in today's terms, he just try that dayla one person to the other

day. Only try. You won't try, you won't know right, just

try. The world will probably tell the woman to do that. Okay,

but yet or maybe the world may tell the woman, au I think you

have a problem with commitment. Can you just settle down with this guy that

you're already staying with. But Jesus gave her the one true solution, the

Kingdom way. Pursue the living water and you shall never tast again. Did

you guys see the difference between the world's way and the way of the Kingdom.

God also has a solution for finances. Do you feel that you are

in neat or in lack? The world will tell you to save up every

penny, make investments, put it into multiple financial buckets, right financial literacy.

Right. The world will say this, while there's wisdom in that,

actually the Kingdom principle, it's almost the opposite. We're going to look at

Levetticuts twenty seven thirty four. Every tithe of the land, whether of the

seed of the land, or of the fruit of the trees is the Lord's.

It is holy to the Lord. If a man wishes to redeem some

of his tithe, he shall add a fifth to it. And every tithe

of herds and flocks, every tenth animal of all that passed under the hurtsman's

staff shall be holy to the Lord. One shall not differentiate between good or

bad. Neithers shall he make a substitute for it. And if it does

not substitute for it, then both it and the substitute shall be holy.

It shall not be redeemed. I'm gonna summarize this to say, God demands

are tides. God demands are tights. I'm going to give you a little

bit of teaching on this. A tithe, the original word, the meaning

is actually tenth one tenth you know, yeah, correct, tenth, ten

percent, all right, And there's a history if you look. You know,

Abraham gave the first tithe, all right, and then after that carry

it on. Now do we give our ties an offering because God needs our

money? All right? We all know this, right. God doesn't need

our money, So why then do we have to give our tithes? And

he guesses. Have you asked yourself that question before? Many of us give

our ties, But do you know why God asks to give our ties first

fruits? Okay, Why let's go a bit deeper. If God doesn't need

our money, why does he ask for it test for our faith? That's

very good. That's a good point. I'm gonna add on to that.

When we have a thing that's a tenth of something that is set apart,

we are basically recognizing that God exists. We're saying that God, there's something

that I cannot touch, only you can touch. If I even take this

tithe for myself, then I'm God. Okay, this is what I how

I feel, how I see when I give my tithes, it's a reminder

that I am not God. I offer it what belongs to God. I

offer it to God. And in scripture here we know it is tied.

Okay, So I'm we're gonna look at Malachi. Now. We love to

use Malugchi treat that for our We love to hear it, like oh if

I would not pour out the blessings of Heaven right, We love to hear

that. But you know what was before Malachi three ten? Malachi three nine.

Haha, No, okay, Malachi three eight to nine. I'm going

to read this scripture. Will men rob God? Yet you are robbing me?

But you say, how have we robbed you? In your tides and

contributions? You are cursed with a curse for your robbing me the whole nation

of you. Wow. Serious? Of course you can argue that this is

the Old Testament, it's the Old Covenant. But I think this is heavy

stuff. But then what this tells me the good news is God has a

solution for finance. Let me share with you testimony of me offering to God

something. And this is not tith. But I remember this was twenty eighteen.

I did a freelance work in January, got my first pay I was

a student back then, a right, so I got my first pace.

I was super happy. Yes, I was really okay, God, I'll

give you my tithe so ten percent of it, all right? But God

said, I want you to give me your all. Like God, you're

kidding me. It's my first job this year, you know, I was.

I already had plans for that amount. But God said, no,

I want you to give me the whole paycheck. Do you trust me?

I said, God, you ask me if I trust you or not.

I think you just I guess I would say I trust you lot. So

I gave it. I gave it to aniversary gif At the time that amount,

I gave it to our aniversary gift, still thinking why what am I

doing? And you know the amazing thing was two months later, let me

get the numbers, writer, I got back seven times more. Call me

superstitious, but seven is perfect number in the eyes of God. And it

was as if God telling me my plans for you are perfect. Just trust

me. God never shot changes. You have a financial problem. Here is

a principle. Honor your tithes. I started giving tides when I, of

course started working my freelance work, and then when I came full time job.

There was for all every month, right and personally, I can be

honest with you, I give more than ten percent. All right, but

that's me. Okay, don't have to follow. But I can tell you

this. Let this be a living example to tell you that I've never been

in lack or in debt. Five years now, I'm working full time.

I have never had a death, and I was never in lack. This

is the Kingdom away principle of heaven. You want God to protect your finances,

and you cannot allow your finances to be God. You need to let

God to be the God over your finances. You see the principle. Now,

therefore the tidele is important. Okay, it's not easy, but I

would say it's not gonna get easier because maybe God will bless you with more

in the coming days. In the coming days, Amen, the music's gonna

get tough for to give the amount is gonna be bigger and bigger and bigger

if you don't start now. So I thank God I started when the amun

was small, so it became a principle. So I'm like, okay,

I don't think much about it. So even when I get in creements,

it's natural. The more you wait, it's just gonna get tough for let

me tell you that. Okay, so start today, and really this is

the principle, and you can't. There are many people with examples like this.

You talk to pass the Healthy as well. He has a very powerful

testimony on how there was a period where tides were not on it and his

money was just flowing to places. He doesn't know where it's going, but

then when he repaid the types of the Lord. Again not being legalistic,

but it's all hard and conviction. He did that got restored. Okay.

Kingdom principle, God has a solution for finance as well. Matthew sis the

Detree, this is another principle, my favorite verse. Many of you know

this. This is my favorite verse. Sick first, his kingdom and his

righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. The world teaches

us take care of all your things first. Then only whatever free time you

serve. Caller makes sense, right, makes sense? Why is it God's

way? No, Matthew says. The Detree says this, sick first,

the Kingdom of God and his righteousness. Put him first. But I need

to put my family. No, put him first. I need to put

my job. Put him first. I may ruffle some feathers here. Family

not important. That's not all I'm saying. Please here, my heart.

Family is important, actually is your very important ministry. But God has to

be first. It's in scripture right there. Sick first, the Kingdom of

God and his righteousness and everything else he shall add unto you. You don't

have to add unto yourself. He's the one who adds. I've shared with

you my testimony. I think this is back in October. I share if

you're a testimony of how God delivered my family from my mom's cancer and depression,

my sisters ah suicidal tendencies and clinical depression, my dad losing his job,

and myself having at that time an issue with my student loan which was

supposed to be converted to scholarship. All that happened at the same time,

right, And for two years, I tried to tried to help my family

as the eldest son, calling my mom every day to talk to her.

My sister will have meltdowns in the middle of the day. I'll be on

the phone for two hours. Then got I work in full time, so

my bosses are understanding, so they said, please minister to your sister.

My dad lost his job unfairly, if I could say that, And I

had the whole thing, funny, funny thing with the student loan that never

happened before. Even my university was like dumbfounded. Nobody ever faced this problem.

How could you face this problem? Two years I tried my own ways,

being there for my family, doing everything I can, being there for

my sister, my mom trying to find ways to help. But then one

day God showed me this scripture and passa knev actually comes with me. I

was at a point where I was I also fell into depression that period,

and God said, seek me first, my God, I'm serving you full

time. What do you mean, No, your family is now your idol.

Ouch family can be idol. Yes, that's how the enemy deceaves,

right, But it's a good thing in caring for family. But it becomes

a problem when family becomes God and all you meditate on is your family.

That was me for two years, and when God revealed this scripture to me,

I realized it's a kingdom way and kingdom principle. It doesn't add up

in the equation, doesn't make sense. But I say, God, I'm

gonna surrender my family, almost as if I don't care. But it's not

true. I still care deeply, but I'm not gonna go and try to

find a solution anymore. I'm just gonna honor you, God and do what

you want me to do, which is to focus on whatever that He has

asked me to do at that time. An amazing thing, you guys,

notice how the story went in one month For two years, I've been struggling

with this. In one month, one week after the other, my mom

was delivered from depression. My sister was delivered from depression, clinical depression by

the way, she was on meds delivered. My dad got a job,

and my student on PTPD and was converted to scholarship without us doing anything.

Praise God. Yeah, So why I'm trying, why I'm sharing this is

because there's a Kingdom principle that I hope we can catch. There's a Kingdom

way in terms of how we approach our problems. Right if most of that

other times don't make sense, but we just gotta trust. If it's in

the world of God, we just gotta trust and have faith. And there

are some things, some principles that may not make sense at first, right,

but have faith and do it because it's what the Lord commands us to

do. Do it anyways, and you see God deliver you. So again,

do you believe that God has answered to all your problems? If yes,

let's walk the talk. It's easy to talk about the Bible, but

it's tough to walk the talk, even for myself. I can be honest

with you. There some days where I'm like, God, God, you're

crazy what you're asking me to do. It doesn't make sense. It feels

like it's going to becounter productive. Trust anyway, because God knows better.

Okay, we're doing all right, very solemn, I know, heavy saf

heavy saff Bear with me. We're gonna go into the second part and let's

see how much I can cover. I may not be able to finish everything,

but we will see how it goes. Okay, first part we talk

about the Kingdom Way. The second thing I want to talk about is the

Kingdom cause. I mentioned earlier that that all may Know is a theme of

Exeige. This year we spoke quite a bit about the Kingdom Way. But

do you know the Kingdom Way. It's not just for us who already believed.

Do you know that heaven was originally meant for everyone before sin came into

the picture. But here's the good news, it's not all lost yet.

The Kingdom Way is not just for us believers to enjoy. The Kingdom Way

is meant for us to preach. We are supposed to share it. Right,

I'm going to turn your attention to Matthew sixth nine ten and again we'll

read it again in this manner. Therefore, pray our Father in heaven.

Hello, it be your name, Your kingdom come, Your will be done

on earth as it is in heaven. How will his kingdom come? And

how will his will be done? Let me give you a hint. It's

true us what God needs to use us to do this? No, no,

no, that's all I'm saying. That's not theologically right. God can

do anything, but God is giving us the privilege to do it. Matthew

nineteen to twenty, famous verse, the Great Commission. Go therefore and make

disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and

of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things

that I have commanded you, and Lord I have with you always even to

the end of the age. Amen, we have a job to do.

We are to teach the Kingdom ways to those around us. Your will be

done on earth as it is in heaven. How will this be done?

Also true us we are heaven on earth. Passa kind of preach fairly quite

a fabul on this. You know. If our goal, the goal of

salvation, is heaven, then why are we still here? If let me

say that again. If the goal of salvation of our soul is communion,

we've God in heaven. How many of us here are saved? Why are

we still here? Now? I believe that God is reinstating our position and

authority as sons and daughters of God to show the way here on earth,

to show the Kingdom Way, the Heaven Way, here on earth to those

that who have yet to experience. We are given the charge to mirror what's

in Heaven right here on earth. Okay, coming to a close. Now

you've heard of God's desire and dream there is a plan, right Okay.

I hope that's established that he wants to partner with us to bring the Kingdom

Way to wherever we are. Okay, all of us are given a domain.

Okay, Just like how Adam and Eve was given a domain for the

garden of Eden, we are also given a domain. Your family, your

schools, your class, your university, is your workplace. That is your

domain. We are given spheres of influence. It's not by chance or coincidence,

it's by divine purpose. You may not enjoy where you're at right now.

You may not enjoy your job right now. You may not enjoy the

course that you're studying right now. But I'm going to tell you this,

it's not a coincidence you're there. It's not because that university is your third

choice, and that's why you're there. Your first choice is not fulfilled.

I want to tell you this. There is a divine purpose to where you're

at, and with a divine purpose, there's a divine assignment. You are

given a domain, and just as Adam and Eve were given charge to take

care of the domain, to manage the domain, God's giving all of us

charge to manage our domain. We are given dominion over our domain, not

in status or to lawd people. Some of us may even be thinking,

I'm not even a manager, How do I manage my domain? The answer

is this, take spiritual authority and power and do things the Kingdom way.

You don't have to be a boss to start living the Kingdom way. You

don't have to be a class monitor to start living a Kingdom way. We

are given dominion over our domain as sons and daughters of the Most High.

And the last point, we are positioned to disciple. We are placed where

we are at so that we can make disciples. We are placed where we

are at so that we can make the difference in the lives of our family

and friends. God has an answer to your colleagues' marital problems. God has

an answer to your classmate who battles with depression and anxiety. God has an

answer to your relative who is facing financial difficulty, but who will tell them

about it? God has an answer, and as sons and daughters of the

Most High, he sends you there again. What are you going to do

about it? Okay, I'm going to go prick a little bit. Prick

you guys a little bit with this. Please don't stone me. I have

a feeling that one of the key reasons why we are not growing in our

marketplace, or we have not had the opportunity to be promoted or even to

change companies, it's probably because we have not done what God has given us

charge to do yet. Is there someone that God wants you to minister too?

Is there someone that God wants you to tell him or her about the

kingdom waste? Wherever you're placed, God has an assignment for you. Have

you fulfilled that assignment? Everywhere that got places you? There is a purpose

and there is a reason. I'm gonna end with some testimonies hopefully to liven

up the atmosphere here. It's very solemn. When I was in university,

I studied film production. That was my training. I was in film school.

We had a classmate. We're a class of seven people, small class.

We are the pioneering badge for that program. One of them was especial

needs. Right, he had ADHD and he had his part, his his

in the spectrum autism spectrum. It's this baff guy by the way, huge

guy who is a multi Fighterso and he shadow boxes in class in the middle

of class. Can you imagine teacher is teaching and you would just get up.

I'm not kidding, I'm not He probably does it with more energy.

So it's true nobody wanted him in their groups because he's such a nuisance.

Really, imagine we are running, okay, okay, camera rolling, sound

rolling, all right, actors Rady three two one slate in action, intense

moment. I'm not kidding. These actual this from my shot film rolling rolling,

and then it was an intense scene. Your scene between a brother and

a sister having a talk, serious talk. Bam bam bam, bam bam

bam bum. See that opened a book reading. That was my friend in

the middle of a shoot New reasons. Really, but you know what God

said to me in all your group assignments. Put him in your group.

God, are you kidding me. I've got a scholarship at stake. I

need to maintain a certain percentage. He's gonna pull my grades down. Students,

you hear me. I believe you also experience the same thing when you

choose your teammates. Right, this person better not touch later, pull my

grades down, don't do homework and all that. But God told me to

do it. I had needed to make a choice. The world will tell

me, don't be stupid. He's on his own. It's okay. He

made the lecturers may give him his own personal assignment because nobody can manage him.

But yeah, on one side, God is telling me love him.

I did that. All my friends thought I was crazy. My other groups

group mats hated me for it. They didn't understand. But I did it

and let me share testimony from that. One day, he posted something very

nasty on Facebook, but he didn't sit well with me, and I had

to as a concerned friend. I had to tell him, rather, what

you posted wasn't too nice, I think you should take it down, and

he asks why I have a freedom of speech. I can say whatever I

want, it's a free will on social media. I had to tell him

that, you know, it's no longer freedom when you affect other people with

it. And he said this, If anybody else were to tell me to

take it down, I wouldn't have listened. But because it's you, even

though I don't agree, I'll take it down. This may sound like something

simple, but this was huge because he never listens to anyone. And I

know at that moment that I've presented Jesus in the form of how I loved

him to him that he was willing to listen to me. I had lecturers

who tell me, I don't know how you do it, but it's amazing

how your classmates look to you like a father figure. I'm not blowing my

trumpet. I'm trying to say kingdom principle. Kingdom principle may not make sense.

I can share very honestly, if you I graduated still top of the

class by God's grace, really, God's grace against all odds or odds,

being that one student who could have easily messed every shoot that I was involved

in. But God's grace is enough. That's the Kingdom way. One more

testimony some of you I've heard this is quite a famous testimony of mine.

I love sharing this. One of the shoots again production assignment. After three

days of shoot, we had like maybe fait sixteen hours of shoot. The

day we were tired, we were like a final scene. It was something

ss Tomall you guys know that, so you know it's not off limits.

We snuck in Okay to do our shoot. We love the rooftop. We

wanted to do us in there, our closing climacine with their shooting almost done,

final few shots, boom boom, boom boom, rolling Canda coming in

and then we were like, oh man, let's rush this. But we

couldn't finish it in time. We have to keep the equipment. The rain

came in. It was a storm and it wasn't safe because there was lightning.

I was angry. I was the director of the shoot. I had

actors on set that were tired. They were supposed to be done by noon

time. I needed to send them home. But it looks like, man,

if this rain does not stop, we have to for another should they

and I'll be behind schedule. I was friending. I was frustrated. And

then this friend of mine came to me, not a Christian, came to

me, Bro, you want to go pray? I'm like, and then

I processed, Yeah, I want to go pray. I went to the

secluded stairway. The whole crew, of course, knew what I was doing.

I went to pray. I went, I sat at the at the

staircase like God. The whole wole knows. I came to pray, just

like how you use Elijah against the prophets aboo. The whole was looking.

The whole world knew that Elijah was praying to you, the same way my

whole crew, me being the only believer, knows that I'm praying. And

I had two specific requests. One, Lord, stop the ring. Makes

sense to let the dark clouds remain. You know why CONTI we say in

film production, you cannot one shot is clouding, The next shot, which

is supposed to be the next second, is suddenly sunny. Right, so

the dark clouds had to remain weird. Right when it comes to heavy storms,

you know, it rains all the way. I prayer, prayer,

Praise to God, God, you cannot embarrass yourself here. You gotta come

true. God, you gotta come true. I'm all like speaking to myself,

trying to get my faith up. God, you gotta do something.

Jess the name Amen. Open my eyes low and behold the rain stopped.

I looked out the ledge low and behold the dark clouds were still there and

almost on queue like a movie. My crew came steaven, weather is good.

We need to roll now. I ran up. Everybody was gethered a

around the door of the stairway just looking at me, and some more even

in whispering. He was praying right, yeah, And that has become a

legend. Why I tell you he has become a legend. I have a

friend, a good friend. He is not a Christian, but he was

my cinematographer at that time. He has started his own production studio. He

has his own company. So when he had his own studio, I dropped

him a visit to say hi, I have a look around. I went

in and this was I think last year or two years ago. Went in

and immediately he was like, guys, this is the man that I told

you who went and pray and he's gonna stop the rain. You guys remember

that story. And then all his stuff was like yeah, yeah, yeah,

yeah, this is the guy. Wow, a non Christian was sharing

my testimony stuff Kingdom Way. The world would say, stop the shoot,

don't waste time, don't wait, it's a storm that's gonna last a few

hours. Go home. God send someone who's not even Christian to remind me

that I have the authority to pray. And I did, and today I've

left behind a legacy and the testimony that my friends until today are still dumbfounded.

I posted that testimony on my Facebook. That guy he's agnostic, he's

not Christian. He just I wrote the whole testimony. All the Christian juggons

are there, pretty called hallelujah, God answer spray is and then he just

wrote that's a reply. There was dope. Man. It's funny, but

it's powerful right that they acknowledge that it happened, that they acknowledge I prayed

to God and God answered our prayers. Kingdom Way. I hope this encourages

you guys to really know that number one, there is a Kingdom Way.

Number two leave out the Kingdom Way, and number three, the Kingdom wagh

is not just for us We are men to share so that all may know

that the Most High rules, that Heaven rules, that God rules. There

are many people who are struggling out there looking for an answer. On the

surface, they may say no, you lim so don't tell me about Jesus.

But deep inside they are crying out. They are crying out. So,

sons and daughters of the Most High, wa will you do? Will

you let one rejection stop you? Will you let two rejections stop you?

Billy Graham Ministries has this statisticment a person has to hear a gospel and average

of twenty one times before they come to know the Lord. Six times you've

shared and they rejected you, keep going fifteen times more to go God,

God willing, maybe you'll be shorter. Keep doing it. We are given

the charge to not just enjoy Heaven for ourselves. We are put here as

heaven on earth to show the Kingdom away, to teach principles that the world

may not understand. But once they see you experiencing it, once they see

Wow, that guy prayed and the rain stop for him. Maybe there's some

credibility to his God. Maybe I'll try it one day. Friends, it's

gonna get tougher becoming a Christian in the coming days. The world is getting

more and more confusing, more and more gray areas. The very principles of

the world goes against our belief. I don't have to go into detail.

You know what I'm talking about. If we don't leave the kingdom away,

not only we risk not being able to share it with other people, we

risk losing the kingdom. Wagh ourselves start today. We hope you've been blessed

by this message. For more information on our church, please visit as church
