That All May Know | Pr Alvin Keng

You're listening to a message to go from ets Church. We hope this message

will light up your day. So let's turn to Acts, chapter two,

verse fourteen to thirty nine. So let's talk about the first evangelistic message.

So this year our team is that all may know right why because everybody needs

to know the good news. That's I have to ask you. Oh,

you know the good news? Not you don't know how you're gonna share.

But if you know the good news, isn't it exciting When a friend comes

and say, you know, Jess, my boss is so difficult, so

difficult. I hate the vallalla every day. Give me a problem on and

Jess to say, you know what helps me? Let me show you about

Jesus. Why talk about Jesus? Why you want to come here? So

let's not talk Jesus. No, no, no, no no no.

Jesus died for my sins, and he's helped me to learn to forgive others

because I know he forgave me. I am such a horrible person, but

he forgave me, no matter why I did in my past, he forgave

me. Because of that, I can forgive other people because I've been forgiven.

You want to know who this Christ is. If you have experienced his

love and forgiveness, I think it'll be easier for you to forgive this pass.

That is the good news. Amen. Let's reader. But Peter standing

up with the eleven, raise his voice and say to them, men of

you, they are okay. Give you a bit of context. So pentacles

happened. The Holy Spirit came tongues on fire. They're freaking tongues. But

it's not just gibberish. They were speaking God's wonderful, wonderful works right right,

declaring God's wonderful works. And they were amazed. The people were amazed.

But you know the people, they were amazed, but some thought they

were drunk. So as you share, as you share your favorite people,

as you talk to people, there will be people there will be amazed and

there will be people that I think are crazy. Know that they'll be both.

One will think wow, es so all revelational, Thank you soone,

and then like, huh you crazy? Are you? But you're so holy?

You know? I don't talk to you a ready after go invite me

to church. You're gonna get both friends, it's gonna come. I put

you on you first okay, because that's what happened here. Some thought they

were drunk and some were marveling. That is, people come, they know

so many languageous one, what is happening? They were curious see those that

were cured. But you see, you still have to speak anyway. You

cannot worry about the response, right, we worry so much about the response,

But then they don't get their breakthrough. What if your hearts are ready?

Amen? So some were amazed, and then they thought they were drunk,

and then these red beaters stood up. You know, this is another

thing I caught for myself. So imagine now let's say x kk okay,

let's say naw, the move the Holy speak came all all of a suddenly,

screaming tongues, healing happening here, got fire or happening. And then

now it was so loud that the people surrounding came and see what's happening.

I sold out someone and they came out. And then the prayer meetings stay

happening. You know, it was a prayer, it was stay happening.

Imagine now if we just like continue on and you know sometimes we can like

Christians like oh no, no, we love God's been there and then got

people come and there were like, it's okay, he's an unbeliever. You

do you know that Peter stopped and addressed the crowd. He didn't continue the

prayer meeting and continue on in. Isn't it a great experience if you're in

God's presence? Again, I'm not saying that we shouldn't make God's presence,

but this spoke something to me that Peter addressed the crowd. He said,

guys, he noticed that our crowd outside, so meaning we will all enjoying.

And then suddenly it's the crowd's like and then let's say, I'm Peter.

Let's say la, okay, and I don't care about your because the

holy space by there. I start talking to the person that's there, a

crowd that's gathering that don't know Christ, don't know what's happening. Something we

are crazy, something we're you know. And what did Peter say? He

stood up with the eleven, raise his voice and said to them, men

of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you

and heed my words, for these are not drunk as you suppose. Since

it is only the third hour of the day third hour, meaning ninety am.

Now it's about twelve pm. But this is what was spoken by the

prophet Joel. And it shall come to pass in the last day, says

God, that I will pour out my spirit on all flesh. Your sons

and your daughters shall prophesy. Your young men shall see visions, and your

old men shall dream dreams. And on my men servants and on my maid

servants. I will pour out my spirit in those days, and they shall

prophesy. I will show wonders in heaven, a birth, and signs in

the earth. Beneath blood and fire and vapor smoke. The sun shall be

turned into darkness and the moon into blood before the coming of the great and

awesome Day of the Lord. And it shall come to pass that whoever calls

on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Friends can ask you a

question. All they are just read, isn't happening right now? It is

happening? Right? Is happening? Right in the church? Is happening?

Amen? Men of Israel, hear these words. Jesus of Nazareth, a

man attested by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs which God did

thrue him in your midst, as you yourselves also known him being delivered by

the determined purpose, and for knowledge of God, you have taken, by

lawless hands, have crucified and put to death whom God raised up having losed

the pains of death, because it was not possible that he should be helped

by it. Let maybe just backtrack a little bit. He explained what was

happening through scripture. The next thing he did was talk about Jesus. Wow,

and do you know why that they know who he was? Because just

one week ago, sorry, just one and a half months ago, right

about one and a half months ago, forty days plus, you know,

three days they crucified this guy. It was weak news in his huge news,

right, this guy that said he was Asiah the cruci everybody knew this

news. Everybody knew about this news, right, And he get read reference.

He said, you guys, crucify him. Remember for David concerning him,

I foresaw the Lord always before my face. For he said my right

hand that I may not be shaken. Therefore my heart rejoiced and my tongue

was glad. Moreover, my flesh also will rests in hope, for you

will not leave my soul in hades, nor you allow your Holy One to

see corruption. You have made known to me the ways of life. You

will make me full of joy in your presence. Men and brethren, let

me speak freely to you of the patriot David, that he's both dead and

buried, and his tomb is with us to this day. Therefore, being

a prophet, and knowing that God has sworn with an oath to him that

of the fruit of his body according to the flesh, he would raise up

the Christ to sit on his throne. He for suing this spoke concerning the

resurrection of the Christ, that his soul was not left in hades, nor

did his flash see corruption. He's talking about King David right. Therefore being

exalted. Oh sorry, this Jesus God has raised up, of which we

are all witnesses. Therefore being exalted to the right hand of God, and

having received from their father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he poured out

this which you now see and hear. For David did not ascend into the

heavens, but he says to himself, the Lord said to my Lord,

sit in my right hand till I make your enemies your footsol Therefore, let

all the house of Israel know assuredly that God has made this Jesus whom you

crucified, both Lord and Christ. Now when they've heard this, they were

cut to the heart and say to Peter and the rest of the apostles,

men and brethren, what shall we do. Then Peter said to them,

repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus

Christ for the remission of sins, and you shall receive the of the Holy

Spirit. See he he made it simple. We will receive the gift of

the Holy Spirit. Amen. For the promise is to you and to your

children, and to who all sorry, to all who are far off,

as many as the Lord will call. Amen, Let's let me unpack a

few things with you. So Peter stood up. He addressed what was happening,

and then he presented the gospel, the first message. After that we

know three thousand, will say, three thousand believe, and the three thousands

that believe, the Holy Spirit poured on them, and the first Church started

right, and of course until today is still happening. Right, we're all

believing. Yes, yes, we have different denomination all that these are all

men's works. Okay, but God's work is that we still believe in Jesus.

Amen, And that's powerful because the last I checked, there are still

people who don't Christ yet, so we still got work to do. Amen.

But let's just unpack a few things just for the sake of understanding.

He quoted scripture the prophet Joel. He testified about Jesus' life, death,

and resurrection. It wasn't just about Jesus being a good guy, or that

Jesus was a good teacher. You know, sometimes we can go into that

like, oh Jesus good, come and learn. Yeah, it's good,

but he's not just good guy. We got to know that he's God and

he died for all since that is the truth of the gospel. And there

will be people that were rejected because they cannot believe that is the truth.

Right, I'm so sorry. I'm not going to miss my words here,

you know, right, that's the truth. You will be rejected, guys.

You know it's the truth. You ever experienced it, but you will

share and there will be people that will reject you. Jesus was so worn

ready, so don't be surprised if you're rejected. Why are we still surprised.

Why are we still surprised when we have to forgive someone because we were

hurt? Why were still surprised? Life is not easy. Things happen,

people fail. But God is still God, and Jesus is still someone we

can call upon. That is our hope. Amen. So don't be discouraged.

Be encouraged because Christ is still around and he's with you. Amen.

Don't base your faith on people, Base your faith on Jesus. Yeah,

that's very important because at the end of day, we want everybody here to

survive, right, and not just to survive, but to try. He

testified that Jesus is both Lord and Christ, and the people were convicted.

Cut to the heart. Who convicted the people? That is a question.

It is not by the eloquence of Peter's word. And we all know here

for those who are believer us long enough, you know, there is never

by convicting. It's never by how what's the word, It's never because someone

can convince you. It's not a person. It is the Holy Spirit that

convicts hers. It is the Holy Spirit that does the work. And as

I'm sharing right now, right, it is not how power passy is long.

It is the Holy Spirit that most and convicts hearts today and when we

share with people and when we you know, when the Holy Spirit speaks to

you and say, hey, Laura, this person you might want to encourage

this person. Please do it because God might open the door for you.

Because the Holy Spirit we work, we keep, we partner. We don't

know, and sometimes we do things I think I talk to there some things

I do. Sorry, I don't understand. I just feel very weird.

You can ask my wife. I was like, dear, you know what

I need meet this person? Why? I don't know? Have you men

this person? Don't know in a long time, haven't met yet. But

I just feel any of this person right. And then when you do it

and you obey, you're like, wow, you never knew. And half

the things are I cannot remember because it's definitely not me. I will never

say things like that on a normal basis. It's the Holy Spirit using us.

Do you know that you don't need to be a pastor for the Holy

Spirit to use you. Everybody here can be used by the Holy Spirit.

Do you know that you don't need to be an all mature Christian for the

Holy Spirit to use you. The Hosprey can use even our teens and our

ex kids. You know, I have a friend who is going through some

challenges, you know, with family, and they have a beautiful child.

And I remember telling my wife this, I said, you know, I

know their family going through challenges. But when I see that child, I'm

like, you know what, I have this strong convintion that the child will

minister to the parents. The child will be the one ministring to the parents.

Stone. The child will the one that brings hope to the parents.

Stone. The child that will be the one that brings joy to the parents

Stone. You know. And of course, someone us young families here go

like, wow, that's a high calling because we know that when we have

young kids it is a lot of challenges and pressure. And but I had

I saw them, I'm like, wow, Lord, you are so good

because you will use anyone right for the sake of the expansion of your kingdom.

You use anyone to encourage your children. You know, he can use

the donkey, right, he will use all of us. Amen. So

their eyes will open. And they asked what should they do? He didn't,

wait, no, what should you do? Okay, guys, you

know what, let's organize ourselves first, why don't we come for a prayer

meeting? And no, he's straight away, No, he's straight away say

this repent well first word. Later we'll go to that a little bit.

Repent and let everyone of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for

the remission of your sins, and you shall receive the Holy Spirit. He

went for it three thousand save amazing, right, amazing. Peter encouraged them

to repent, be baptized and receive the gift of Holy Spirit. Why we

celebrate the anxious because that's what the Bible says. No other reasons Bible says

we follow, you know, no need to make things complicated, right.

I don't really hear this shed about much nowadays, but I will talk about

it a little bit. Repentance is a very important part in this process.

Now. I remember when I was a young Christian. There are a few

things that you know, we were trained in which I pray and I hope

that our young Christians, and even for those of you who have been in

church for a long time, you might can relate to what I share now,

you know, but maybe because it's the time we live in, is

the is the I don't know amount of resources we have. You know last

time when I grew up right. One of the things we encourage. The

other is the word of God is powerful, no matter how boring your bastard

is or the message is. You know. Of course we love to go

to you couse more jokes, more, you know more. But then now

when I go for Sunday services and guys, you can really be very comfortable

in the presence of the And there are certain preatures, I mean, thank

God, excellent, whatela. I think every picture is very happening, you

know, but there certain creatures really you know, will solve like soften your

heart, and the moment they share you feel like you want to sleep one.

But because I was trained when I was young to say Elvin, God's

wordner is fire. Doesn't matter how boring the preature is, try to focus

because you will definitely catch one thing. So from young I had that training.

That's why I will like write notes, figure out and really sometimes really

you like, oh man, this is really I'm just really struggling, Okay,

really struggling. Why can you not? Because of the expectant heart,

I always catch at least one thing from the scripture, it is never about

the bustard. It is never about that. It's always by God. Another

thing that we need to remember is there has to be repentance. Do you

know what repentance is? Repentance are is turning from your old ways? You

know, repent terns being born again. I don't know whether we've talked about

this enough or not in the church. Now. You know, we talk

a lot about Jesus being good to us. He can bless you, he

can heal all good. But why we never share that actually, you need

to repent from your waist now, not continue living the way you'll be living

all this while now. And because Jesus so good, he will yeah,

yeah he will accept you. But yea, if you repent, Jesus will

still accept you. He accepted the guy, you know, the the robot

on the cross. He will, but you have to repent. Why we

don't really hear that nowadays? When I read it, I'm like, yeah,

actually threw a repentance, okay, repentance and working out our faith?

Why do we feel like sorry, okay me? Why do I feel you

know, I can do whatever I want just because I'm a christiandeed, yeah

do you know that every day I have to work up my own salvation.

Just this morning, I share you, Just this morning, I have to

repent and say Lord, I'm so sorry. Yesterday I might say one or

two things that I actually have not said. I repent. Can you forgive

me every day? Not asking you to go and repair every day? But

know that we have made a new creation. Wow, you want to leave

a life of breakthrough. We got to follow the word what the word says.

We're gonna not take our faith for granted. We've got to work out

our faith. We've got to have understanding. You know, God will use

everyone here. I believe God will use everyone here. But we need to

go according to the order. We cannot make it out of order. We

cannot make it of order. You know we cannot treat south first and then

later ask forgiveness. You know this jokere do first us say sorry later cannot

No, We've got okay, No, we've God. We've got to repent

first, presents ourselves holy and say Lord, I forgive me. No I

I You know, worship is very powerful thing, right and I think I

think we practice it in our worship team. I know we practice it in

our missions team. Every time we go in minister to people, we say,

you know, one of the things we brief people say hey, guys,

because we know it's a special bett out there. Please don't play player.

Please sir, ask for forgiveness because say sorry to your mother, father,

or right if you've got a problem with the brother, please go and

apologize. Now, deal with it now before you got into the missions field,

because right now we can take it for granted. The moment you go

in missions field and you bring all these baggage along, oh my goodness,

the devil's going to have a field day with you. And I'm seeing it

happen. I've seen people fall sick suddenly you don't know why I want and

then you have to send them back, fly them back, and then okay,

and then later on realize that actually a person got a lot of issues,

deep rooted issues. And then yet I see you on a surf.

I want to friends. It has to be in ordered. We have to

allow God to move in our lives. We have to allow God to know.

Let's be honest in spirit and truth, say Lord, deal with this.

I'm not perfect, I admit right, deal with it. And then

I want to serve you and then I want to experience you. Like I

say, maybe it's the generation today, Maybe it's what we're exposed to.

There's a lot of acceptance, guys. Acceptance is good, don't get me

wrong. But there has to be repentance. We can accept anybody here,

friends, the church doors open to anybody. But if you want to follow

Jesus, you got to repent from your al ways and profess a savior.

That's what written the Bible. Can we still be your friends, can,

but you have to repent. If you don't want to repent, then we

hard because not repenting means that I do not want to submit myself to Jesus,

not Ursa, not the Church. No, I don't want to myself

to Jesus. Friends, we repent and we submit to Christ, our savior.

Amen Ezekiel eighteen thirty three one says. Therefore, I will judge each

one of you or people of Israel, according to your actions, says the

sovereign Lord. Repent and turn from your sins. Don't let them destroy you.

Why repentance? Why why God asks us to repent? Because when we

sin? Do you know sin is something that will slowly destroy your life.

Sin is something that will slowly destroy you and your family. So don't live

in sin anymore. I have seen how sin can really affect people, whether

it's secret, not secret, any form of sin, small scene, big

sin. Don't keep sin as a pet in your life. Come clean,

friends, because eventually the pet will grow and grow and grow and eat you

up. That's what I've seen. But you know, people who have come

out of sin, people who have, you know, not have any more

shame and say, hey, you know what, I'm open. No.

I just had an interview Passed Cane, I think two days ago, and

we talked a little bit about it. You know, for those of you

who who may not know, my eldest son has my autism. One of

the biggest breakthroughs of my life was preaching about it on in Pj's service.

Before that, I kept it quiet, kept it quite a lot of shame,

shame. The moment I said, I said God, and God is

someone challenged me. You know, I didn't want to do it right,

But the moment he brought up, I'm like, wow, crazy, so

much freedom, no more afraid. In fact, we in fact, after

that, it got better. After that, we were able to encourage other

people. You know, God will used you know, yes, always come

with winguses, but don't have to. I'm not again, guys, I'm

not asking you to sing, you know, I just thought, don't don't

do that, please hit the right platform and all. But what I'm trying

to say is that don't live insane anymore. Come out of it, amen,

right, put all your rebellion behind you and find yourselves a new heart

and a new spirit. How many of you need to experience a new heart

and a new spirit today? You want to experience viature in your life,

You're experience being a new creation. You have to decide. No one can

decide for you. You have to decide, and it can happen today,

friends, Because God is real, you don't have to wait for a powerful

picture. You don't have to wait. Don't have to You can decide today.

I want a new heart and new spirit. Amen. For why should

you die of people of Israel? John Tree, Tree says, Jesus replied,

I tell you the truth. Unless you are born again, you cannot

see the Kingdom of God. This, Jesus was our friends, not so

nice to hear. Unless we are born again in a new creation, we

cannot see the King of God. Second Corigians five seventeen says, therefore,

if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. All things have

passed away, all habits, all problems. Behold, all things have become

new. Amen. Friends, A few questions and a few points for us,

and now are closed. So we talked about that. All we know

and all all of us here, every single one of us here, there

is a message we are preaching every single day through our lives. There is

a message. Whether you use words or whether you use action, you are

preaching a message. Right. My question is what kind of message are we

preaching to people in church, for our friends, to the people around us?

Are we speaking life or are we speaking death? Right? Morbid?

No, you follow me, You follow me, and then you understand Kay

problems eighteen twenty one says death and life are in the power of the tongue,

and those who love it will eat it's fruit. Vers sarcastic on very

sarcastic. You know, knowing this and knowing what I know now, I'm

very very careful when I speak to people. And I've learned. I've been

like said yesterday, I have to read this morning. I have to repent.

Lord, maybe I say or two things that I shouldn't say that and

again now I'm not the you know, maybe last time, long time ago,

when I was staying in college as a bit more brash, right,

I probably offend a lot of people. Nowadays, I think I'm a bit

better after married and kids, right, but still still I'm very careful.

Say amen, right, So we got to be careful. We always say,

well, we speak sometimes, especially when we like you know, I

want to share my heart. You know, I've seen how certain hart thought

talks with people right will fly the wrong way on. You know how I

know whether a heart to heart talk will be good, will come out good?

Well, it's very simple. After a heart talk, if you're more

encouraged, you're more hopeful, you're more happy, you help other people,

then it's good. After I had talk, you're more cynical. You Sunday

disappear. Huh, what's happening? Why suddenly dead? Why Sunday? This

person at that? Amen? So my encouragement does all this morning as we

speak, whether you realize or not, I just want to help you to

think a little bit. We got to speak truth in the situation. John

eighteen two says then Jesus said to those Jews who believed him, if you're

abide in my word, you are my disciples, indeed, and you shall

know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. I'm trying to

see if I've got time to explain this a little bit. I realize now

how important speaking truth is, not speaking emotions, not speaking what I feel,

speaking truth, speaking the truth of the matter, speing the reality of

the situation, not speaking emotions. Because when we are emotional, we will

say a lot of things we don't mean. We will say a lot of

things that are not true. Right. It is always blown It is most

of the time blown out proportion. But truth is very important. I just

give you an example. Recently, I was talking to someone and the person

was a little bit discouraged because of something that happened. And it was a

misunderstanding, right, And then the person managed to overcome it. Ready,

you know you had to do it me or so. And then I told

them person, I said, okay, you know what I mean. Thanks

rather for sharing me and for having that. But it's good to know that

you already resolved it. But let me still tell you the truth of what

actually happened. He's like, no, no, no, it's okay,

pastime. And finally I said, no, no, no, no,

I must tell you the truth of what happened. You know why because I

realized that when you go through discouragement and yes, although you dealt with it,

but you still don't know the truth. And again I'm not saying it

will happen to everybody only if it's in relation. Okay, you don't know

the truth, man, I tell you the truth. So then the next

time when this thing happened again or something similar happened again, you're not going

to be discouraged. And you start thinking maybe the last time he was like

that, And then what is that the seed of doubt have been sown in

your heart, and the seed of doubt that is sown in your heart might

affect your belief. Okay, let me go a bit more closer to home.

Let's say me and Rachel. I can't use an example because we're close

enough, I hope, you know. And then I heard, hey,

Albert, do you know Rachel did this? You know? Basadoniel told me

Richard did this? Now right? And thenna if Albert's like, really you,

how can don't you know, don't you guys, we're not spreading truth.

But if Elbert come to me, I say, bro, Richard's my

wife. Okay, I know she will never do that. Why don't you

go talk to her? Why are you talking to me and Parsadenia speak truth?

I'm like, okay, by sea, if I just want to create

dissension, right, I won't. I'm not going to tell Rachel quite scared.

But if I talk to her and she said, Heyulya Elvin, it

wasn't like that, lad, this is the truth? Oh actually, or

it was like equal even me? Yeah, actually pass was like that,

and I repent. Really, I'm so sorry. Don't you think that would

be resolved speaking truth in a situation? So I realized, But if not,

if that didn't happen, and if we or like okay, and then

you know, in my lie, I don't know Richer and find then the

next time it happened again, I'm like, you know what, he must

be truer, he must be true. And then it happened again, and

say it when I say it happened. Now, just because something happened doesn't

mean that everything is the same. And then more seeds of doubt start coming

and then seat or that become one unbelief and then it affects us. Then

actually nothing to do with Richard nor Riches living her life. But because of

all the seas of doubt ZN, then we're not friends anymore. How nonsense?

Is that? Right? So we should speak truth? Hey, brother,

can you please don't speak like that? Go and talk to her?

Why must you talk to me? We speak truth, not lies. Do

you know that half lives are also not truth? You know how the devil

messed with If it was a half lie, it must be true. So

friends, can I want you to be very careful? Why listen to to

me? It's as simple. I'm not there, I don't care. You

can tell me. I will go find out from the horse's mouth. We

got no horse healer. Okay, but that's what we'll do. But speaking

true, friends, so important to speak truth? Don't spread lies you're not

sure, don't say clarify, get clarity, get the truth. None.

No, well we used to say it. Give people the benefit of the

doubt. We have good people here. Okay. Second thing we need to

do, we need to speak life right Probabs fifteen one to four. But

as you say I can need help. A soft answertains way wrath, but

a harsh word stirs up anger. The tongue of the wise users knowledge rightly

by the mouth of fools, pour out for foolishness the eyes of the lord,

and in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good.

A wholesome tongue is a tree of life. Hey, how many of you

like to hang out with people who say good things all the time? One

you love it? Can we be that person? We can't know? A

whole same time is a tree of life. But perverseness in it breaks the

spirit. Wow, you know the Bible does say one more thing. You

know what breaks a good friendship? Gossip? He's in the Bible. Gossip

breaks a good friendship. You can be really good friends. All you need

is gossip, then the friendship will be gone. Ready, how many years

friends? So no more? Already? So speak life. We got to

speak live friends. You know, don't be tempted to don't speak death.

Speak life. Yes, it's good. Yes, X is still good.

Church. We experience so many things. There are still people being safe.

You know, I give you a testimony the beginning of March. You know,

like I said, preparing the church for what God wants to do now.

I felt led to focus in more the Holy Spirit, and we experienced

two healing testimonies in service. Not experience it in a long time XPJ.

I wonder how many more healing testimony? What happens here in xt K the

moment we are aligned with God, the moment he said God, Holy Spirit,

you come. I don't want to talk other thing. Let's just talk

Holy Spirit and Jesus enough ready. Imagine how what God will do with that.

Imagine when you are united, what God will do here. Don't wait

for we're gonna say, pasquo, don't wait, just or the leadership.

Amen, all of you here can experience that poscanda. He also quite happening

now. But yeah, you know, love your pastor speak peace, Speak

peace. He brewis child for things, says pursue peace with all people and

holiness without which no one will see the Lord. We are people that will

need to pursue peace. And can I let you know that there will be

people that will want to sow dissension. There will be people that want to

get you on their side, you know, for whatever reason. Okay,

right, please please bring peace, Bring peace, to the situation. Don't

play side. I'm on God's side, you know one other side? Right

by speak peace in the situation, right. Romans fourteen nineteen says, therefore,

let us pursue the things we should make for peace, and the things

which are which one may edy five one another. We are God's children.

We should edy five one another. That's what we should do. Right,

We should edi five one another. That's what we should do. Romans twelve

nine to twenty one. We get extra help? Yeah? Uh is it

there? Oh? Okay, I did right now? Now, never mind

homework, go b and read. I don't think how much time. So

let's speak peace. No, Jesus is called the Prince of peace. And

if Jesus is the prince of peace and we are supposed to follow him,

shouldn't all of us here be princes and princesses of peace? Or every time

I come in the situation, now I'm a fire starter. Things get hot?

Or do I bring peace to the situation? Think about it? Okay,

we got to speak healing. James five fourteen fifteen says, is anyone

among you sick, let him call for the elders and the church, and

let him pray over him, anointing him with the oil in the name of

the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the

Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed since he will be

forgiven. Psalms one O seven says, Then they cried out to the Lord

in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses. He sent

his word and healed them and delivered them from their destructions. Sums that he

says, Oh Lord, my God, I cried out to you, and

you healed me. Friends, this is our comfort and our conviction that Jesus

Christ, he doesn't just save, but he heals Isaiah fifty three. By

his stripes, we are healed. Why do we do our prayer every week

because we believe that Jesus heals, and because we believe that even true zoom

God can heal, and God has healed. It is God that does all

these things. All we did was just obey. All we do is just

obey. We're really running for three years, Agay know not easy, you

know to Thos, you know, three four years we've been doing it a

day, and we've seen God move in people's life in a small scale you

know, speak healing. Friends, God can use you to heal. One

of the things that I've challenged myself now and I do it really quickly.

Last time I a bit like shy slow even And it even happened when I

went to Penang. I went to Binang for someone's a wedding and I was

there and when they were sharing everything, someone shared with me something I immediately

up on it. Now, So they were sharing about the mom fractured the

arm and I supping and I stayed in their place. I immediately look for

a mom and I say, can I pray for you? Mama's not beal?

Will I pray for her? Prayed that I pray that your experience God's

you know, love and you know God's presence will be here and you know

who God is, right, But I also pray for healing, you know.

Can I show you that it can be a very scary thing sometimes when

you do that, because you think that's an expectation. But can I encour

just you just to do it, because isn't it better if you do it

and then someone get heals he like, you know, you would be more

encouraged. And again it's not like, oh wow, now my hand is

No, it's not about your hand. Okay, it's about God using you.

So can all of you do it? Can just go and pray?

Lah, simple prayer Lord, heal this person. Lord, and it's okay.

On they'll be okay. We didn't want But are we gonna practice?

You know? And I didn't make you weird lack. I didn't okay,

Can I have another thing? Or come? Let's operate in. I didn't

make it weird. I just went pray five minutes done. You know.

But but God, can you say, and I'm believing that God can youse

it? Amen, So speak healing. Next, speak the good news.

Isaiah fifty two says, how beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of Him

who brings good news, who proclaims his who brings glad tidings of good things,

who proclaims salvation, who says Zion your God raims friends. You know

what the good news is? Can you bring the good news in every situation?

Can you bring God in every situation? You don't need to be a

Bible scholar. You just need to know how to bring the good news.

Bring the good news to every situation and be led by the Holy Spirit.

Right, don't be over zealous our friends after this, you know, but

be encouraged that God can use you. The moment the Holy Spirit speak to

you, are please obey because you'll be surprised at what he will do.

Speak the good news. And finally we need to speak Jesus. This is

a scripture I want to read John chapter three, verse sixteen. For God's

so love the world that he gave his only begodden son, that whoever believes

in him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send

his son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world true

he might be safe. He who believes in him is not condemned. But

he who does not believe is condemned really because he has not believed in the

name of the only begodden son of God. Or he's done with right.

I think am all right. And this is the condemnation. That the light

has come into the world. And men love darkness redder than light because their

deeds were evil. We got to remember that now men we are our hearts

are deceiving, and men love darkness small. Okay, so there's a very

high cia. It's very easy to do bad things on friends. You don't

need to teach kids to do bad things. They know what to do,

don't on. But it's very difficult to do good things. So we've got

to remember that. Okay, we've got to remember that. So we put

ourselves under the subject to the subjection of God. We put under ourselves under

submission to God and man. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does

not come to the light, less his deeds should be exposed. Friends,

don't be surprised that when you're people practicing evil in the world that they don't

like the light. Why are we surprised? The Bible really say, oh,

I don't understand. I'm trying to reach out my friend, but he

don't. The scriptures here, but there's no condemnation because you're not fighting against

fresh and blurt. It's not a person. It is about the influence a

person. So you have to go into prayer. You have to go and

ask the Lord, can you move or not? Can you show um or

not? So that he will slowly come to the light and not just love

the darkness. But he who does truth comes to the light, and his

deeds may be clearly seen that they may have been done in God. Amen.

Philippians two five eleven says, let this mind be in you, which

was also in Christ Jesus, who, by being in the form of God,

did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made himself

of no reputation, taking the form of a bond servant, and coming in

the likeness of men. Being found in appearance as a man, he humbled

himself and became obedient to the point of death, even to the death of

the cross. Therefore, God also has highly exalted him and given him the

name which is above every other name. Friends, we always got to remember

this. Jesus' namer is not a swear word. Jesus Namer is a name

we pray in. When we pray in Jesus Namer, we are praying under

His authority. You know, it's not just oh, Christians say, is

no? Do we understand the significance of it. It's not just say grace.

No. You cannot pray in Pastor Elvin's name, no, no power,

one, no power or one. You cannot say pray in the Prime

minis no well, prime Minister power maybe in the Malaysia Aah. But Jesus

name, he has power over everything. When we pray in Jesus' name,

we got to remember that's the conviction that we need to have. Jesus,

I'm asking you to move. I'm praying in your name, not anyone's name,

that every nationial bow, of those in heaven and those on earth,

and on those under the earth, that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ

is Lord to the glory of God of Heaven. God gave him that power

and authority, and he borrows us that power and authority. Amen. But

friends, can I give you and other encouragement? We are not alone?

Of course, I'm challenging you, encouraging you. But no, you're not

alone. Why because God gave us the Holy Spirit to help us with the

last commandment that Jesus has left us he has. He has left us with

that we shall receive power. When the Holy Spirit has come upon us.

We shall be witness us to Him in Jerusalem, in Judea, and to

the end of the earth Matthew twenty. In nineteen twenty, he says,

go there for make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of

the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe

all things that I've commanded you, and Lord, I'm with you always,

even to the end of the age. I hope my sharing today has given

you a little bit of understanding firstly of your faith, secondly of the foundation

of where your faith lies, which is in Christ Jesus. Thirdly that right

after they even right now, the Holy Spirit can move in your life.

He can. But there is a decision we need to make. There is

a decision are we going to come under the submission of God or are we

still just going to live life like ky Sarah Sarah. I think if we

come under the submission to say, God, I submit, I summit.

I know that your God, I want you to move in my life.

You know, you know? And sometimes can I share this? You know?

Sometimes I feel like our minds need to be expended a little bit more

right as believers, because we always think, well not we la mi la

okay, I use me in my example. You know, oh, you

know when the church organization and couragous people are it's just only so that the

you know, it's just church related. No no, no, no,

no no. God wants the whole world to be saved. Do you know

that it's very difficult to get everybody here. If we even we ask you

to go and invite people to come, it's gonna be tough. Now,

practically, it's going to be a bit impractical. Do you know what's more

powerful? When the believers, convicted and led by the Holy Spirit, anointed

by the whole Spirit, go out to wherever you're at, to your homes,

to your children, to your school, to your office, and when

the Holy Spirit use you to be a blessing there to be so enlightened when

the Holy Spirit, When God uses you to bring relief to a mom,

When God uses you to encourage a family member that's going through a lot of

challenges. When God uses you to help a colleague who somehow cannot forgive the

boss. That is powerful. But we have to allow God to move.

We have to say God, i'm here, send me. It's not always

just about ministry, right The ministry is there, your mission, feel is

there where you're at. Only if you say, Lord, i'm here,

I know now my mission, I know now what you want to do.

Holy Spirit, help me. You know. Another encouragement I'll give you is

no, it is hard to help someone when you have problems correct. When

you're going to challenge this, it's difficult for you to help people. So

do you know that God, Yes, we have to reach out to other

people. We have to do all these things to be slighted. But do

you know that God want to complete you first? Do not got that help

will help you first, because once you are in that place and position of

being blessed, then you can be a blessing. That's a wonderful thing about

God. He doesn't just leave you there on your own. No, he

will pick you up. He will heal you. He will encourage you,

he will anoint you, he will promote you. He will make you the

hit and not the tail. He'll be the one that gives you the victory.

He will help you overcome right. He will give you peace. He

will give you life, but not just for yourself, so that you can

extend it to someone else that needs to experience that. We hope you've been

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