  6. life's challenges as a child of God. What I'm about to share with you,

  7. I pray that it will help you not only understand how God does things,

  8. but also to pray how to pray. I've learned this especially in the

  9. last three months personally, because I've gone through different things and I go like,

  10. God, how do you work? You know, just tell me how

  11. you work, because sometimes I think it's like this. Sometimes I think it's

  12. like that, and then sometimes it's not like this. It's actually like that.

  13. It's all about timing. And so let's move on. I'm going to

  14. talk about right first. Right, okay, and right means power. Somebody

  15. say a power. So God has given us a right, okay, and

  16. God has given us power. Right equals power power. Right. When you

  17. have a right, you have a power. When you have a right to

  18. vote. You have power to vote. Amen. When you have a right,

  19. uh, you know over something that the law gives you a right,

  20. it gives you the power. Uh. Then if you are wrong, you

  21. can go to the courts of law and you can fight the case at court

  22. because you're right has been Uh what's the word. Uh, that's a good

  23. word for it, right, I can't remember now. Uh, your your

  24. your right has been stepped on. This is used that word right now?

  25. Okay? Um, and and and and and Therefore you can fight back if

  26. that's what you feel you should do. You have the power to do that.

  27. Okay, So God has given us the right. Let's let's look at

  28. this word here. John one twelve is one of my favorite versus. Okay,

  29. every time someone praised the prayer to receive Jesus Christ into their heart,

  30. I always repeat this scripture John one child, but as many as received him

  31. to them or to those, he gave the right to become children of God

  32. to those who believe in His name. The right. However, you know,

  33. you have the right to become a child of God. Isn't it great?

  34. You have the right? The right? You know, no one can

  35. actually stop you from voting if you had the right to vote. Just not

  36. too long ago, maybe about a month ago. I was sitting down,

  37. me and my wife was sitting down with a friend, and she said,

  38. her mom, her mom passed away two weeks after the elections, the last

  39. elections in December. Two weeks I was in November, November, right,

  40. and two weeks let mess. She passed away on the first week of December,

  41. something like that. But two or three weeks after she voted, she

  42. voted in her wheelchair. She couldn't get up. She had cancer. It

  43. was it was it was just it was just ravishing her body. But she

  44. wanted to exercise her right. It's her right, and so you know,

  45. of course her family members don't then mess around with her right right. She

  46. said, I want, get me on the wheelchair, get me to the

  47. place. You know, people don't mess around with your right one. Now

  48. when you see it's my writer. Family members, get your dress, family

  49. members, get your wheelchair. They put you in the car. They got

  50. to the school. When they got down that the daughter was pushing her said

  51. cannot push my mom. Please to this place, to her salonan to her

  52. room, and the guard says, cannot cannot say. How's she going to

  53. vote? She can't take herself there? He says, cannot vote. Then,

  54. and then the mother said, what do you mean? You know she

  55. in her cancer written body, what you mean this is my Immediately there was

  56. an officer that came out no no, no, no no, as a

  57. god to step beside, because the God didn't understand right. And sometimes the

  58. devil can be standing in front of you saying no, no, no no

  59. no. And we as Christians need to know our right in the Lord,

  60. our right to the salvation to become a child of God. I'll right to

  61. healing in Jesus name, I'll right to deliverance. Come on, I'll write

  62. to a new life, abundant life, eternal life. Don't let the devil

  63. lie to you. But the God, you know is there cannot And so

  64. she said no way fight donal and and and and obviously came out no no,

  65. no, no no, sorry Auntie, sorry sorry Auntie. Actually that

  66. your daughter also has her own room, Saloran, why don't she go there?

  67. They help out my mom and the officers. I will take her because

  68. a person understands the right. We'll go the second mouth to make sure that

  69. you're right, you know, fulfill achieved. He pushed her members and they

  70. said she they pushed her and she was done in like five minutes because VP

  71. boom boom boom boom boom let her go first. And she went. She

  72. voted, big smile on her face, and then she went home to be

  73. with Jesus three weeks later. Right, it's all right. I don't care

  74. whether the cancer one who stopped me, God one who taught me, nobody

  75. going to stop me, because this is a right that God has given me.

  76. Somebody say, amen, it is very important for you to understand when

  77. you're doing business, when you when you're going going to school, when you're

  78. faced with a challenge, when you're faced with a ridiculous boss, you know

  79. who's ridiculous in everybody's eyes. But but you know, you must have a

  80. right to say that. You know, God gave me this job, and

  81. God called me to be a good employee. And I'm gonna change this office,

  82. and I'm gonna change this company. Has the right as the right to

  83. speak. Blessing are used to with me with me, I'm gonna change the

  84. environment. Why should the environment change me? Why should the atmosphere change me?

  85. Why should this bad boss. No, there's no there's no real bad

  86. boss. But why why is this boss? You know I'm not gonna let

  87. him change me, my attitude, my spirit. You know I had the

  88. right to be a child of God. Amen. So let me move on.

  89. Let me move on from that scripture bad few ten one. Okay,

  90. let let's look at right. Let's let's look at more of this power more

  91. power to you, more right, Jesus, when he had caught his disciples,

  92. to you himself or to him, he gave them power. Somebody say,

  93. power over and clean spirits to cast them out. You've got to know

  94. you have the power. You've got to know you have the power. When

  95. I was taught this during the pandemic, because I was learning how to heal

  96. the sick, cast out demons, I wanted to do that. I wanted

  97. to because so many Christians were bound, so many people that I love were

  98. bound. So many people were sick for no reason, so many people had

  99. disease. And then I read this verse. He gave me the power over

  100. and clean spirits to cast them out and to heal all kinds of sickness,

  101. all kinds of disease. I had to memorize scripture, because as I tried

  102. to practice healing over people and deliverance and all that, I don't remember scripture.

  103. So but but I tell you just one thing about memory verse, one

  104. thing about remembering, one thing about actually taking on and really believing in it.

  105. Okay, this is important because uh, you know, you know that

  106. I pray for people on Tuesday afternoons right through zoom. It's called the hour

  107. of prayer. And I think we've got maybe about I don't know, fifty

  108. testimonies now, and one of them got heal from cancer. The next non

  109. neighbor of doctor Jill totally heal of cancer. Because when I stand there at

  110. the time of one hour, I don't mince my words. I don't have

  111. time to play around. I don't have time to listen to the lives of

  112. the enemy. I just go for it. I just go for it.

  113. I just say, in Jesus name, cancer be gone. Susan is a

  114. regular hour of prayer. I will see her name, Susan, and Susan.

  115. That day, Thomas rashes all over his body, according to Susan,

  116. and so he asked to pray. And I say, in Jesus name,

  117. I rebuke that rash and commanded out of the body. Right. Because because

  118. because of this, you think, what this pluck out from from the SKYA

  119. what this is the word of God. He has given me the right,

  120. the power. And then the next uh, I think, was it the

  121. same day itself susan? Or was it the next week same day itself?

  122. Right? You wrote down after you prayed, before the hour finisher, you

  123. say that the rashes are all gone. The rashes are all gone, the

  124. rash gone in Jesus name. Because there is power. So Christians need to

  125. know when to exercise right, because too many of us when we don't exercise.

  126. See, God gave us a right and gave us a power, means

  127. he expects us. Somebody say expects us, He does expects us to use

  128. it. You see. Sometimes it's like let's say your father give you a

  129. car, give you power, gave you a right car. And there you

  130. say, then I can't go to school, I can't go to college.

  131. That's why I just gave you a car. Would you drive me? I

  132. would drive you. I gave you the whole car. The keys are in

  133. your hands. Please can you drive me? You're devil? Like? Forget

  134. it? Man? Why I'll give you a car. You see, so

  135. many Christis go around and say, oh God, I beg you, oh

  136. please, oh please. He's saying, hey, speak it right, confess

  137. it, declare it, bind that that the evil spirit that is coming upon

  138. your family. Rebuke it, rejected right, cast it out. There is

  139. a time for it, and you must understand the time for it. You

  140. must fight for your family, fight for your marriage, fight for your children,

  141. fight for your country. And it's not fight with with with you know,

  142. arm armory and and got no fight in the name of Jesus, because

  143. we have the power. Let's move on. Let's move on. Uh,

  144. next slide. So Jesus said to them, because of your unbelief. So

  145. they ask Jesus, why couldn't we cast it? Why couldn't we cast it

  146. out? And Jesus is because of your unbelief. For surely I say to

  147. you, if you have faith as a muscle's seat, you will say to

  148. this mountain, move from here to there, and it will move and nothing

  149. will be impossible for you. What do I underline there? I underline say,

  150. because too many Christians don't know how to say. We only know how

  151. to cry when things happen and God says, say to the mountain, to

  152. say, you're supposed to speak to your mountain. Mountain, mountain, are

  153. speaking to you? Now? Sometimes how we look at the mountain and then

  154. we see everything else. I'll say, I don't know why. I'm not

  155. sure, Hey, anyone here, no or not how to solve this problem.

  156. I don't know how this hold You look and look everywhere else except to

  157. the mountain. And we're supposed to look to the mountain. Say speak,

  158. mountain, be removed, problem, be removed, this attitude in this office.

  159. I command you you shall no longer be in this office. This bad

  160. boss who has a bad character. In Jesus name, I speak to this

  161. mountain, not to the boss. That don't say boss die in Jesus name.

  162. You know, speak to the spirit behind the boss. You know what

  163. I'm saying. They're a lot of spirits, no behind authorities. Okay,

  164. we don't rebuke the you know, the Prime Minister himself. You know we

  165. won't ask to do that. The Bible says a prey for the authorities,

  166. not rebuke the authority you want to rebut you rebuke the spirit behind it.

  167. Are you with me? You gotta speak to your mountain. Otherwise how to

  168. move there is you you speak to a pastor, no use speak why because

  169. problems eighteen twenty one says death and life problems eighteen twenty one. Just in

  170. case you're thinking notes, death and life are in the power of the time.

  171. Bible says it is already right life, death choose all right, speak

  172. it, speak it. Look ten nineteen. I love this scripture. Look

  173. ten nineteen. Behold I whose eye Jesus give you the authority, the right,

  174. the power to trample on serpents, not run away from them. Okay,

  175. just say whatever serpent, spiritual serpents around you, all right, trample

  176. step on them. There's another scripture I like in Roman sixteen twenty. And

  177. the God of Peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly the grace of our

  178. Lord Jesus Christ be with you, you know, beautiful verse Roman sixteen twenty.

  179. That's another memory verse the God of Peace will crush Satan under your feet.

  180. It didn't say and the God of Peace will crushed Satan under his feet

  181. under your feet, while way was the last time you crushed Satan under your

  182. feet? Usually run away and crying and say, oh God, you didn't

  183. help me, and God said, hey, sometimes I want you to help

  184. yourself because I gave you the power, all right and over all the power

  185. of the enemy. And nothing shall bat any means hurt you. You know,

  186. I told you before a really crazy dog was always wanted to meet me

  187. when I was walking apart, you know. And then it started to bother

  188. me because now it's controlling my life. My life includes walking in the park

  189. so I can exercise, I can be healthy. But now this demon has

  190. this dog. It's call it for what it is, you know, white

  191. color one right, small fellow one actually not that big. Small, But

  192. the bark sometimes the devil's bark is louder then his bite. He goes about

  193. like a roaring lion. The scripture says, huh, not a biting lion.

  194. A roaring lion means he rows. He's raw is sometimes louder than he's

  195. bite. Are you all seeing me? You get scared? We don't want

  196. to go live our lives. We must live our lives. Yeah, he's

  197. barking. So one day I tell you what I read this word, this

  198. is the word of God, must become life in you, not just a

  199. word, but life. So I saw the dog from far, I gather

  200. a courage. I pray to read the whole money, saying Jesus name,

  201. I rebuke the dog. If the dog comes again, I'm going to kill

  202. it. You know. The courage came up. Now, so I walk,

  203. lion, Doc came now. I'll tell you from far. You know

  204. I meditated on the last part first, and nothing by any means hurt you.

  205. I medited. I meditated on that first. Nothing shall buy any means

  206. hurt you. I'm pointing by faith. Nothing shall buy any means hurt you.

  207. Hey, the dog cannot hurt me. Okay, nothing, all right,

  208. I just continue. Nothing shall buy any means that you'd repeated. Nothing

  209. shall beat the dog waiting for me. Nothing shall buy any means that you

  210. you you can't bite me, dot, you can't mean how you try your

  211. giggee or will come out? I tell you so, I walk, and

  212. I pointed at Doc. No, I tell you, people are dead.

  213. I think I'm crazy though, in Jesus name out and he ran it ran,

  214. and he never came back ever again. And when he comes back,

  215. he walks there the way. Now I feel like bucking. Come on,

  216. amen, don't let them do. Let the devil bully you. He wants

  217. to paralyze you. No doctor, just a barble, so can paralyzed right,

  218. fear, No, no, don't let that happen. Okay, most

  219. as surely, I say to you, he who believes in me, the

  220. works that I do, he will do also. Wow, and greater work

  221. than this he will do. Jesus said it already, you will do the

  222. works I did. But why why you keep asking him to do your work?

  223. Jesus, can you do my homeworker? Your home is your homework?

  224. Law? What you ask your father to do? Because I go to my

  225. father, and whatever you ask in my name, whatever you ask in my

  226. name, that I will do. That the Father may be glory in the

  227. son, glorified in the son. If you ask anything in my name.

  228. Wow, what a promise, What a promise? If you ask anything in

  229. my name, I will not I maybe I will do it. I will.

  230. It's a time for that. Please know the time for that. If

  231. God gave it to you. God gives you the courage, God gives you

  232. the peace, God gives you the leading. You you just go and grab

  233. the lion by his throat or by his beard. Whatever I know, right,

  234. Because David grabbed the lion by his beard and killed it and killed the

  235. bear. Are you all see with me? So of you and I got

  236. lions in our lives one or got bears one? Now you just take it

  237. on that in Jesus, because the next one will be Goliath. And you

  238. know what you will say, The God who delivered me from the band lion

  239. will deliver me from this Goliath. Hey man, there's a time to fight.

  240. There's a time to fight. So what do you do with the right

  241. given to you? You all know, right, John one Chov, He

  242. gave you the right to become a child of God? What do you do

  243. with the right? Come on? You must just because you have a right,

  244. that means doesn't mean it just happens, though, do you Is the

  245. vote going to vote for you if you don't go to the Saluran. What

  246. I'm saying is that if you have a right, you have to exercise the

  247. right. So on three points, you've got to know it. Some people

  248. don't even know their rights. Huh you mean I can cast out the devils?

  249. How you mean I can heal the sick? Mark sixteen sixteen to eighteen.

  250. I love that Another memory vers id to do, and these signs shall

  251. follow those who believe in my name. They shall cast out demons. They

  252. shall speak with new tongues. You know, they shall. Well. Let

  253. me move on. It goes on to say they shall lay the last part

  254. verse eighteen, they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

  255. I love that last part. They shall lay hands on the sick,

  256. and they shall recover, and nothing shall by any means hurt them. There's

  257. one part that says I they say, okay, memory, memory, now

  258. coming back. They shall take up serpents, and nothing shall by any means

  259. hurt them. They shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

  260. I take that literally. You know that when I lay hands on the

  261. sick, they will not. Maybe they will. So my job is to

  262. lay hands. His job is to heal. I just lay hands. That's

  263. why I believe in the laying of hands. So the Zoom prayer is secondary

  264. to me, is not the best kind of prayer. I love doing it

  265. so that I can pray for a lot of people that come into the Zoom

  266. Tuesday one to two during lunch time. Every Tuesday. We try to be

  267. there this Tuesday hi Riya break so halleiyah praise God. But almost every Tuesday,

  268. but you know otherwise. I love this kind of ministry. Why we

  269. call prayer Support Team to come up, because the laying out of hands is

  270. so powerful. Right, people get healed, not just healing in their bodies,

  271. healing their finances, healing their hearts. Okay, everybody, Okay,

  272. you're got to know it. You got to know how to use it,

  273. and you gotta use it. You don't use it, you lose it.

  274. All right, all right, let's move on. So I'm asking you all,

  275. all of us to exercise that right. Otherwise we will not grow up.

  276. God wants us to grow up. If you keep asking our father to

  277. do everything, then we are children, and the children must grow up.

  278. And my children grow up, they start doing things on their own. Yes,

  279. praise God. I'm gonna get Gabriel, and Gabriel's like mom's still doing

  280. things for me. Um yeah, grow up, grow up and take authority,

  281. Grow up and take h your right, stand on the right. Don't

  282. sell your right for temporary pleasures. I thought I put that as a slight,

  283. you know, because you remember who is that who sold his right?

  284. He'saw yeah he really yeah. So hungry, you know, and and some

  285. of us have got pleasures and desires, and we are hungry and our epetite

  286. it's for something you know, of the world or whatever it is. And

  287. we sell, all right, But God is saying, don't sell your right.

  288. Okay, it is all right. I've given to you. Use it.

  289. Okay, everybody, Okay, this is very important. So I pray

  290. that Monday it will change for you. Eddie, you walk into your office.

  291. I pray the whole environment changes because you said, I am I have

  292. the right to be a child of God. And if I'm a child of

  293. God, the presence of God is in me, the Holy space in me.

  294. So as I walk into this off I declare I speak. I say

  295. to this mountain, do it on Monday. Do your Monday. Do it

  296. in your college, doing your university. Do you know before you walk into

  297. a meeting, you declare you speak? You speak? Peace? Right?

  298. Peace? Jesus always said, a peace, peace, release from his mouth

  299. happens because remember Genesis one, when God said let them be like there was

  300. like God had to also speak. In fact, the first act you ever

  301. see God, do ur speak like? Have it? God? And we

  302. were all made in the image of God. Just that sometimes we we get

  303. who scared, we don't speak, we cry no, come on, get

  304. up in Jesus name, Amen, in Jesus Name. Okay, Now,

  305. when do you go to the next point, mercy, when all that you

  306. have spoken said the glad confess it's not happening. Okay, And I've been

  307. there before, I tell you over three years, right, and three hundred

  308. and four notes, and trying to learn every day about healing and deliverance and

  309. prayer, casting out demons, learning, learning all my knees, you know,

  310. going through sicknesses, myself rebuking gout from my leg and gout goes,

  311. you know, in a moment, Oh, hallelujah, thank God. I

  312. have to learn, okay, what to do? Okay, learn learn,

  313. learn, learn, taking communion almost every day I try to take communion.

  314. I learned that also because there is power in communion, and so I love

  315. communion. I take it, and I remember what Christ has done for me.

  316. All this are okay. If I have the time, I'll bring you

  317. true Okay, three hundred and four notes will have to be I don't know

  318. two years, but but we're there days that the speaking and in Jesus name

  319. out. Did you go and didn't work? Yes, I have to be

  320. very honest with you. Yes, And so this way Christians get discouraged.

  321. But God, you told me say to the mountain, the mountay door to

  322. move. God you told me to heal the sick, lay hands. And

  323. you know the more I lay hands a secreted full again, what's happening?

  324. This is when I had to learn mercy. So one morning, early morning,

  325. I felt my body in a bad place. Some of you are,

  326. you know when your body is in a bad place, meaning that you're not

  327. well. And I was not well, and I thought to myself, Oh

  328. my God, what's happening? And I started to shiver and cold sweat,

  329. and it was very late. I was also tired, and all I could

  330. do, and the Holy Spirit led me to do it, I just cried

  331. out for mercy. I said, mercy, God, Lord, have mercy.

  332. You know, because I read it for a few days, rebuilt,

  333. cast out all that, and yeah, I did feel a little bit better

  334. now and then, But but after doing all that for a week, I

  335. still felt worse. And I said, mercy, God, Mercy, have

  336. mercy on me. I think I prayed that I don't exaggerate, maybe about

  337. seventy seven times mercy God. I prayed UNTI slip, and I woke up

  338. the next morning feeling great. And I learned there are days God allows us

  339. to go through that to also humble us, you know, because there are

  340. days when spirits obey your word, Sickness move, and disease move, and

  341. mountains move. You know, you can get proud one like I don't need

  342. God anymore. I just speak with me right, I just point the devil

  343. moves right. It's like, there are days you're the right. You must

  344. understand because God wants you too. You better use it. So use use

  345. your right first, and when you're right doesn't seem to be working, use

  346. mercy. I'm just helping you because I've been helped so many times. Just

  347. in the last one year, I've pleaded for mercy maybe three five times,

  348. the times you know, my right works, Hallejah, praise God. And

  349. then he doesn't. He doesn't doesn't. Oh how come I've been praying so

  350. much? And then my daughters see like that, my marriage still like that,

  351. my father still like this, you know, my business still like that.

  352. And I learned mercy, mercy, the Lord takes pleasure someone four seven

  353. eleven. The Lord takes pleasure this, this thing about it. Now what

  354. pleases God. He takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who

  355. hope in His mercy. So, ladies and gentlemen, I hope shouldn't be

  356. in our right, our hope shouldn't be in the power to cast out demons.

  357. That's why when the disciples came back and told Jesus, even the spirits

  358. are subjected to us, Jesus says, do not rejoice that the spirits are

  359. subjected to you, but rejoice rather that your names are written in the Lamb's

  360. Book of Life. Yes, so Jesus not even asking us to concentrate on

  361. our right, concentrate our power, concentrate on our ability to no, no,

  362. no, I know, praise God. We all rejoice. I saw

  363. Satan for like lightning. That's what Jesus is. I saw Satan for like

  364. lightning. So because Christians are exercising rights right, the right that God gave,

  365. Wow, Satan falls like lightning when Christians exercise that right. But he

  366. says, don't rejoice in that, don't focus on that, don't concentrate on

  367. that, don't say you know I've got the power, you know. I

  368. remember that song. I've got the power, and and and and and and

  369. you and you suddenly forget God, the God who gave you that power.

  370. And so someone God allows allows a time where you say, Lord, my

  371. hope is not in the power, My hope is in the mercy Some one,

  372. Palm thirteen, verse five. But I have trusted in your mercy.

  373. There is another memory verse for me. But I have trusted in your mercy.

  374. My heart shall rejoice in your salvation. Verse six says I will sing

  375. to the Lord because he has dealt bountifully with me. So is here one

  376. four seven eleven. I remember it by seven eleven. One four seven eleven

  377. says the Lord takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who hope,

  378. hope, hope, hope, I hope in your mercy. This one

  379. says, but I've trusted in your mercy. Will hope and trust both in

  380. the mercy, not in the right. Very important, very important. God

  381. wants us to come back to the place where we hope, not in anything

  382. else, but in his mercy, where we trust not in anything else but

  383. his mercy. Everybody, okay, some six verse two, just hear the

  384. cry of this some six verse two, have mercy on me, or Lord,

  385. for I am weak, Oh Lord, heal me, for my bones

  386. are trouble. Is he no casting out demons? There? No in Jesus

  387. name, No? No? What's the memory verse we love so much Isaiah

  388. fifty three, verse five, Right, but he was wounded for our transgression,

  389. He was bruised for our iniquities. The chastisement for our peace was upon

  390. him. And by his stripes we are healed. And so sometimes you take

  391. that scripture and then you see in Jesus Name, the word of God has

  392. already said, by his stripes, I'm healing. And you claim, claim,

  393. claim, claim, claim, doesn't happen, And then you go like,

  394. oh Lord, have mercy on me. I am weak. Oh Lord,

  395. heal me, for my bones are troubled. And sometimes you know,

  396. our bones can be really troubled. Lamentations three twenty two, Train three.

  397. I love this one too. Yeah, I'm giving you a lot of my

  398. memory verses. Through the Lord's mercies, we are not consumed. So you

  399. might even have a sickness and then you say, wow, is this sickness

  400. gonna kill me? Well, you say to yourself. I will not be

  401. consumed. Maybe it's a business contract I will not go down. Maybe it's

  402. a fear of the economy in Malaysia. I will not go down with this

  403. economy. I will not be consumed. But it's not just real right now,

  404. it's not just a power. It's because of his mercy. I will

  405. not be consumed. My marriage will not be consumed, My family will not

  406. be consumed. Somebody say, amen, because his compassions fail. Not So

  407. every time you hear people say your mercies are new every morning is where the

  408. scripture comes from. But it's not so direct, right, It's not.

  409. He didn't just say your mercy is near every morning. He says your compassions.

  410. So actually it's mercy and compassion. God actually looks at us and has

  411. compassion on us because we have no other way. We've tried every other way.

  412. We've tried to rebuke, reject and all that kind of stuff. And

  413. now we'll just say, Lord, be merciful, have compassion everybody. Okay,

  414. they are new every morning. Great is your faithfulness, love it when

  415. passes. Sendra let us in that song about faithfulness. God is so faithful.

  416. So I'm gonna say Amen. So I'm gonna say it again. Through

  417. the Lord's mercies, nothing else, we are not consumed. I pray you

  418. take that as a promise for your family, for your marriage, for your

  419. business wherever, even as Malaysians in Malaysia, we will not be consumed.

  420. Why his mercies, Amen, Oh I love Second Cridicles twenty twenty one to

  421. two. You know there were three armies so huge coming against Israel, and

  422. King Jehoshaphat thought, this is this is it. I'm gonna you know,

  423. I'm gonna be destroyed. And the prophet comes and says, no, you

  424. will not be destroyed. God will be with you. All right. Look

  425. at what King Jehoshaphat did, and when he had consulted with the people,

  426. he appointed those who should sing to the Lord. Sing to the Lord Judah,

  427. praise or Judah first last night, right, we praise, we sing,

  428. And what happens in the heavenlies we don't really know, but something happens,

  429. right, sing to the Lord, who should praise the beauty of holiness.

  430. As they ran out before the army and were saying, praise the Lord

  431. for his mercy and yours forever now. When they began to sing and to

  432. praise the Lord. The Lord said ambushes against the people of m on Mob

  433. and Mounsier. That's the three army, three armies that were against Israel,

  434. who had come against Judah, and they were defeated. The enemy were defeated

  435. just by singing. So the best lyrics are is already written the Bible,

  436. of all lyrics, of all songs that you ever heard of, these were

  437. the only lyrics that they sank. So they're walking out to fight an enemy,

  438. but they're walking out with praise, and the only praise in their mouth

  439. was praise the Lord for his mercy and deos forever. That's it. No

  440. other chorus, no other line, is just praise the Lord for his mercy

  441. and deos for So the only way we're going to be delivered from this,

  442. from this enemy, from this army is praise the Lord for his mercy.

  443. So I'm teaching you something that in the morning, when you have something,

  444. you're facing a big army or big whatever ahead of you, you can do

  445. this for the next time minutes. Praise the Lord for his mercy and yours

  446. forever. Praise. I don't know how to prayer, just praise the Lord

  447. for his mercy and for past I really don't know. You know, my

  448. father is going through this and my mother is going through that, and they're

  449. in the hospital and they're going through an operation, and you know this thing

  450. is coming against me. Past it. I don't know, the law is

  451. coming against me. I didn't do anything wrong. But you just say,

  452. praise the Lord for his mercy and deals forever. You continue in your car,

  453. after you're dressed up, you go into your car, you start your

  454. car, you drive up, praise the Lord for his mercy, and you

  455. continue to praise the Lord, and remember it's his mercy that's going to deliver

  456. you. Is this helpful? No need to rebew, no need to reject,

  457. no need to do anything like I just told you about about right,

  458. because maybe at this time the Lord is just asking you focus on my mercy.

  459. God's mercy is not a right. God's mercy is totally undeserving. God's

  460. mercy is completely his discretion. God's mercy is fully adequate and impossible to repay.

  461. The only way you can repay God's mercy, if at all, is

  462. to show mercy to others. And you know the story right about the wicked

  463. servant who was forgiven much. And then he went out there and took his

  464. fellow servant by the collar and say, pay up everything. And he had

  465. just been forgiven all, his death all and he couldn't show mercy. Do

  466. you think the servant could repay back the master? No way, not in

  467. a hundred years. We already learned that. Now how much a servant or

  468. the master? The Master said, I forgive you all right, I forgive

  469. you, and he couldn't forgive his fellow servant. The master was not angry

  470. about the death anymore. The master was angry that he didn't show the same

  471. MERCYF you really want to repay God for mercy, show other people mercy.

  472. That's it. That's that's what God wants. But I look at Matthew eighteen

  473. thirty two three, and now the master's very, very angry because he didn't

  474. show mercy the servant. He said, you, wicked servant, I forgave

  475. you all that that because you beg me. I love. The word begged

  476. in another translation is pleaded. So we plead for mercy. We beg for

  477. mercy, and Father God hears us and will forgive all our deb He will

  478. come through for us even though we don't deserve it. Somebody say, amen,

  479. even though we don't deserve it, God will come through for us.

  480. He will show us compassion. And now he's saying, why didn't you show

  481. compassion to your fellow servant. So it's very important that you want to repay

  482. God for all that he's done for you. Just show mercy to others,

  483. all right, and God will be well please Matthew nine thirteen. But go

  484. and learn what this means. I desire mercy and not sacrifice. Wow.

  485. Can it be clearer than this? Jesus is saying, I don't even need

  486. your sacrifice. I need your mercy. Is that good? Matthew nine thirteen.

  487. I designed mercy or sacrifice for I did not come to call right the

  488. righteous, but sinners to repentance. Mercy See is humility? It is?

  489. It is? And God often just wants to keep his children humble. And

  490. because there are times where we exercise a right, as I said earlier,

  491. rebuilt, reject and all that kind of stuff move mountains, and sometimes we

  492. think it's us, and the Lord reminds us now and then no, it's

  493. not you. And so now I want you to beg for my mercy plead

  494. for my mercy, and you're got Oh, but you know I want to

  495. do it that way. It's so much easier, you know, seeing the

  496. devil run away. Say no, no, no, Kenneth, this is

  497. not between you and the devil. Now, okay, it's between you and

  498. me, between you and our father. Okay, the devil is not in

  499. the picture me and you want to I want to heart check. Oh Lord,

  500. sorry, Lord, have mercy. I need your mercy. I can't.

  501. I can't rebuke. I can't. I can't rebulke my way out of

  502. this. I can't reject and exercise my right out. No, I can

  503. only go one way. I humble myself before you, and I plead for

  504. your mercy. I beg you. Mercy brings us out of uncomfortable situations.

  505. Look at that slide and remember it. Mercy brings us out of uncomfortable situations.

  506. Because I'm going to now talk about grace and then draw to a close.

  507. Grace Grace is patience. Now, what if you're right doesn't work?

  508. You move to what mercy? Now? What if your mercy doesn't work?

  509. Grace grace and grace takes patience Second Corinthians twelve seven or nine. Unless I

  510. should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations. A thorn in

  511. the flesh was given to me, a message of Satan, Wow, a

  512. messenger of Satan. Man Wow. I thought you can rebuke and reject Paul.

  513. I thought you can rebuke and reject Satan. I think he tried it.

  514. He tried it. I think Paul has tried rebuking the message of Satan.

  515. But that didn't didn't work. Easy, less I'd be exalted above measure.

  516. Oh, so there's a reason why God allows it, so that Paul

  517. doesn't get exalted above measure. Okay, So concerning this thing, I pleaded

  518. meaning water, meaning water, He must have gone from right to mercy because

  519. he pleaded. So every time you see the word pleaded, it is mercy.

  520. So he's tried to rebuke the devil. I'm sure because he knows he's

  521. a devil. He's in the message of Satan. So I'm sure he exercised

  522. rebuking. How come the work? So I pleaded, and I pleaded with

  523. God three times that he might depart from me. So mercy he usedly,

  524. right, he usedly cannot work. Mercy usually cannot work. Now. He's

  525. like wire, and many Christians was a wire. Why must I go through

  526. this? Where must I go through this? And he said to me,

  527. my grace is efficient for you, for my strength. He's made perfect in

  528. weakness. Passandra, when she lost her dad about a month ago, it

  529. was very painful because that was only eighty three. She thought that maybe that

  530. could get to ninety. And I can see my wife really missing her dad.

  531. Of course, her mom says him more because they've been married fifty seven

  532. years. Try being with a person for fifty seven years, you know.

  533. That's why a lot of people who are with their husband or wife for so

  534. long, actually when they lose the love of their life, they go,

  535. you know, not too far for from that time because they just they missed

  536. the person so much. Why why? You know? And this is Kenneth

  537. Chin, right, who should be able to go into his father's law's room

  538. and rebuild cancer because I've seen cancer being healed, but God didn't allow that.

  539. Then will be back for mercy he got, be merciful to him.

  540. In fact, that my father in lawd just before he breathed his last fifteen

  541. minutes before he breathed his last, My prayer upstairs was God be merciful to

  542. us. God be merciful to us, you know, take away his pain

  543. because he was in such pain. And I tell you what, if it's

  544. not the right and it's not the mercy, then it's the grace to go

  545. through it. And there's a reason why God allows us to go through things.

  546. Some of you are older here can tell me why. You say I

  547. learned something from it. I learned compassion from it. It's easier for our

  548. person to just get healed like that, right, Yeah, we go back

  549. to normal the next day. But to actually wash him, clean him,

  550. yah, put pampers on him, or you know, help him walk,

  551. feed him. Sometimes a law allows us to go through things because he's not

  552. changing the man who we are feeding. He's changing our hearts the feeder because

  553. life and death are in his hands. I always with me. He's very

  554. important. Okay. My grace is sufficient for you. For my strength is

  555. made perfect in weakness. God is into perfectingness, and he perfects us true

  556. our weakness, not true our strength. And I know a lot of chriss

  557. want to be strong. We are strong, you see, we can just

  558. rebuke the enemy. He runs. Yeah, that's all right, praise God.

  559. But a right has his time, Mercy has his time, and Grace

  560. has his time. Hey boy, Okay, I hope I'm helping you,

  561. because then when you know, how come God never removed this ridiculous boster for

  562. the last four years? Three years, two years? Sometimes our bosters can

  563. be so bad that even two months or so you want to kill yourself.

  564. But I mean, right, and how come? How come you didn't take

  565. me out from this company? Now? I've been crying out to God to

  566. know, take me out this company for the last two years, right,

  567. because something is happening as God gives you the grace, See what was my

  568. slight earlier? Mercy brings you out, Grace brings you through. Yea,

  569. though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, why can't he

  570. bring me out of the shadow of death? Why why am I walk through?

  571. It's always a purpose And if we get the purpose right there, we

  572. become better people if we keep you know, um spewing curses and attitude or

  573. in a wrong place. And why is God like this? And why is

  574. my boss like that? And why is Malaysia so crappy? And you know,

  575. you just you just live a crappy life. Why is my school like

  576. these? Why? Amas? God put me and go to commun you know,

  577. right? And then you never learn what we never learn. We just

  578. grow grumpier and older, even though we are still young and older. Spirit.

  579. But God says, my grace is sufficient for you. My mercy will

  580. take you out. But I didn't choose mercy. I choose grace. Yea

  581. though I walk through, Uh walk true and then hopefully you'll be like,

  582. it's okay, it's all right. God, if you want me here,

  583. let me take a deep breath. May your grace be sufficient, and may

  584. everyone see a smiling Kenna Chin even though his boss hasn't changed. The boss

  585. didn't change, but Kenna Chin changed, and he walks in every day he

  586. doesn't want to say good morning until the boss a good morning or whatever.

  587. You're fighting with your boss, right, and then one day, one morning

  588. is a good morning boss. Your boss almost fainted. He thought, hey,

  589. no, what happened. Jesus happened. God's grace happened. And then

  590. and then you realize that now what you say good morning? Do you know

  591. what you just practice? You spoke? Yeah, you spoke. You you

  592. you didn't even know that you're right, just kicked in. But it's it's

  593. kicking as you know, mercy. And then you speak about you know people,

  594. all right, bless you all the time you curse him. Bless you,

  595. I bless you. You know, Oh, you want to cheat me

  596. in this contract whatever it is. I think you're cheating me. Never mind.

  597. Okay, in Jesus name, if God wants to bring me through this,

  598. I bless you. I bless the contract. I bless the business.

  599. You know you do that? Are you also with me? This is very

  600. very important? Okay, Yeah, I walk through the value of shadow of

  601. death. I will fear no evil for who you are with me, Your

  602. rod and your staff. They comfort me. Last few slids. Grace brings

  603. us true uncomfortable situations. James one, two to four. I don't know

  604. how many of you can practice this, but this is the word of God.

  605. Oh how many of you who can practice? Is I tried to practice?

  606. Is a lot, but sometimes I fail? Counted all joy when you

  607. fall into theirs trial scanner trial who test thing, test thing testing, testington

  608. to testimony in a tests you cannot spell testimony test right? So tests?

  609. Oh another test means another testimony waiting. That's how you should see it,

  610. right. Another test means another testimony waiting? Can I can County all joy?

  611. It seems like it's a responsibility and a response that you must make.

  612. You need to count it all joy. I need to count it all joy.

  613. Knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience? What do I say

  614. earlier? Grace and patience? You must be patient? Oh wow, I

  615. don't know a Lord, and I thank you for your grace. I thank

  616. you. I'm going, I'm walking through the valley. How many of you

  617. are glad that the Bible says walk through the valley through? You're not supposed

  618. to stay in the valley. Oh yeah, though I stay in the vet?

  619. No? Yeah? Do I get stuck in the valley? No?

  620. Yeah? Do I walk through? I walk through la loo, walk through,

  621. walk through? Keep on? Well, anyone discourage you, keep on,

  622. keep on walking? Okay, So, County all joy? Patience?

  623. How long? Got one month? One mon kenna? Two? Two years?

  624. Or no? My grace is sufficient? Okay? Can you imagine starting

  625. to enjoy your trial? I don't know where you can enjoy that? Ridiculous

  626. boss, But oh, that ridiculous colleagues or that fuller who I don't know,

  627. I don't know, I don't know what you're going through in life?

  628. And learn. And until we learn that means the Bible is saying, until

  629. we learn to enjoy that valley, we might not be able to find the

  630. exit the fast till we learn the quicker we get out. Let patience have

  631. its perfect work, because sometimes patience doesn't have perfect work. Sometimes you can

  632. be very patient and also not work perfectly. Your mouth is still complaining while

  633. you're having patience. Okay, last few. But those who wait on the

  634. Lord, Oh I love this shall renew their strength. You know why some

  635. of us are so tired because we don't wait, and we try to find

  636. our own ways, and we run here, run there, run do this

  637. d run to get dante, run here, run there, run to get

  638. help, here, run to call this person, collect person. Don't run

  645. your wings and go, Wow, I can fly above the storm in my

  646. life. They shall run and not be weary. Anyone running here doing your

  647. work every day, Hey, running walking, you will not be weary and

  649. the end of the day you feel very tired. I know. I you

  651. I'm gone. Yeah, I mean heaven having fellowship with the angels,

  652. and the Lord choose to send me back down easy. Your job is not

  654. spend time with him. Huh, wait upon the Lord. How many of

  655. you have you ever waited before? Okay? I don't know. As a

  656. waiter, you stand, okay, you stand at the table and there are

  657. three people, he said, and then you put the menu there? Really

  666. not ready, but actually, handway, we're not. Just to ask you

  667. a question, what do you recommend that? So the waiter has got to

  668. wait. Take the orders, take the right orders, otherwise it will be

  669. the wrong order. You go into the kitchen, the cook will score you

  670. off. That why you got the wrong order because I didn't wait. I

  671. wait, I hear properly the order of the Lord, the instructions of my

  672. God. Wait, why would you like? Lord don't know yet? Still
