Acts PJ Camp 2024: The Pouring of Cement | Pr Kenneth

Some of us here in this room.

I don't know whether this is speaking to you, but

maybe for too long. You've been negative. For too long,

You've given up too easily. It's time to take your

life back. Because when you look at the cross, it

is a sign of positive. There is nothing negative about

the cross. So when you look at Jesus, look at

the cross. Positive, positive, positive. He came to give you

a future. Nna hopey, Okay, very important, not very even

if you are wrong, are you?

I should have been negative? No positive, positive remain.

The Bible says, be transformed by the renewing of your mind.

Number two. What the people of Israel say to Moses?

Why did you so bring us out to the willness?

Why? I can tell you.

Some of us struggle with why so much that we

cannot break through and move forward. You know, I've been

ministering to young people for so many years. I can

hear their voices ring.

In my ear.

Someone told me, why did my mom have to die

from cancer at such a young age and can't.

Get over that for the next twenty years.

Why did my dad have to leave the family and

I was without a father since I was five?

Why? Why? Why?

Now?

It's not to say you cannot ask, but the Bible

wants to teach us not to be bound. In fact,

there's a scripture that says, I look forward, I forget

the things behind or in the past, and I press forward.

Are you with me forsaking and forgetting the things that

are so?

This is this is very biblical, okay, that we are

not to be hooked up on the Why so why

was I like this? Because I was tested again and

again and again at a very young age? Okay, tested

when I was born. My mother and father divorced when

I was one year old. Tested when I was poor.

My father was a drug addict, smoke guanjar. I had

to light up the gunjar bottle for him at six

years old?

Why me? Why me? Why was I poor?

You know, so poor that when the robber came to

rob our house, we robbed him. No, I'm just kidding,

but we were so poor. I never got a new

clothes for many years. I always inherited from my cousins,

from my uncles.

Why why me? And then I.

Couldn't go overseas for university because my father couldn't afford it.

So I went to the cheapest school at that time

Rema College one hundred and fifty ring git per semester

or something right, study on your own life, University of London,

study on your own.

Why me? And then when you know I start ministry?

You know I have to do this? Why me? I

have to trust God for money? Why me? I have to?

You know, it's just so many like God, why can't

you go and test somebody else? Please give me a break?

Until God said to me, Kenneth, why not? It changed

my atitude?

No? Why not? I said, what you mean? Why by

why not?

He says, Kenneth, every time I put you to a test,

you get your testimony. You mean now you want me

to test other people so they can get their testimony?

I said, sort of? He says, So you don't want

any more testimony? You know? All these cams and conferences

that I do are it is usually filled.

With eighteen percent stories because God gave them to me.

And so the Lord says, you don't want them. I

can give them to others, but it's your story to

carry forever. And so the editor has to change not

why but why not? Because I've grown stronger because of this,

I've grown better because of this, I've grown bigger because

of this, I've grown wiser because of this, I've grown

more courageous. Because of this, I become you know, That's

why some people say, please go back and thank the

people who hurt you. Because of that, I'm hurting you

are you are? You are the wonderful person you are. Now,

you're the strong person you are, Now you're the confident person.

Go back and thank the people who you thought hurt you.

I mean, we've heard that before. Okay, so there's number two.

Number three? What else did the people of Israel tell Moses?

We told you? Didn't we tell you? Don't bring us out? Ah?

This one is very very h This one can be

very sensitive.

Every time you're in a company, or in a family,

or in a whereby you feel that you have something

to say, but you feel that they're not listening to.

You, frustration builds up. I totally away.

Don't come to NBS. I told you there's another bit.

There's a better camp sign. I don't know this story,

but I understelling you because it happens everywhere, and it

happens everywhere.

I told you I need that. Don't move to PJ.

I told you redy that's pja, you know, because we

come from Terrans.

You know, I don't know. Okay, I don't know.

Sorry, if I'm touching people here, I'm not sure when

I'm not sure.

Just you know, Okay, Uh, that's what the thing is.

I'm just saying. I'm just saying, I.

Told you really, don't go and rent another floor. I

totally really pasted, don't move out VCC, and you didn't listen.

And the frustration builds up.

Many people leave their companies because they don't feel like

they're hurt. Many people who leave their churches because they

don't feel hurt. Frustration builds up. People want to leave

their marriage because they don't feel hurt. It's an attitude,

you say, Lord, help me deal with these frustrations. Help

me deal with this frustrations, because these frustrations can be

like cancer. They will eat you from the inside out.

I told you so. How may you know that we

were teaching people before?

Right?

Even if your son or daughter comes back and they

actually suffered from the very thing you told them not

to do, your first words to them shouldn't be I.

Told you so. Right.

We all know this, We all know this, and yet

we can't wait to tell them I told you so, right, yeah?

Or do we learn my pastor taught me? Even though

you know my wife comes back and repents. My husband

comes back and says, already you know you know, don't

your first words should ever be I told you so,

and then so I didn't. I made sure it was

not my first word, but it was definitely my second.

There's everything with it as well. I want to tell

you I told you so. Frustration.

But anyway, as we draw towards the last lap, this

can really get to us.

And I was frustrated. I was frustrated. I thought there.

Were some things I shouldn't have done. I thought I

shouldn't have expanded so quickly. I thought, you know this,

this frustration did I do? Sometimes the other people somebody

can be you. You are frustrated with yourself. Number four,

it would have been better the people of his real state.

To Moses, it would have been better. And every time

someone says it wouldn't be better, it just means regret.

So you are seated here and you probably still have

a thought in your mind, it would have been better

if I stayed in the last company. He would have

been better if I stayed in the last church. He

would have been better if I stayed in the last

stayed back in my hometown in Pinang.

In Ipo.

It would have been better if I didn't get married

to this person. Oh please, this is not too late, ady.

Five other guys were actually lining up for me, and

I chose this one. Oh, very quiet now, so quietly,

it's ok.

I'm not talking about anybody ere That guy really, you know,

was begging me to marry him. And that guy was

so good looking, and that guy was a lawyer. That

guy was you know what. And this guy, this guy

who's now creating me so much headache and so much

honeche Okay, please, sir, I'm just trying to be exaggerating.

I don't believe there's anyone in this room is like that.

Praise God. Everybody is thanking God for their spouse. Can

I amen? All right? Okay, the husband's allowed. Enough O

it's got But regret can kill you. Seriously, you just regret.

It would have been better. It would have been better

if I didn't sign up for this camp. Do you

know what?

If you sit here and say it would have been

better if I didn't come for this camp, do you.

Know you will miss out on all the sessions because

your attitude like I shouldn't be here, so Jesus himself

can come as a speaker.

A speaker for tonight is Jesus Christ, Jesus, Jesus himself,

Jesus himself, peers hands, peers feet, Jesus. But you don't

you regret coming for this camp?

Who is that?

Who's there with a long hair? Who's there with the

long hair? There's Jesus himself. Really no, MA not know.

I know whatever that comes through you won't get. You

won't get because you're just living in this regret of

I shouldn't be here, I should even be a Malaysian.

That's why you will never contribute to Malayiah because if

you hate being here, you will never.

Be a contributor. You will just be a taker.

Ah no, no, no, no, no no no. Yeah, there

are there are real regrets in life. But I want

you to surrender it to the Lord. I say, God, yeah,

you know, I think this is eating me up already,

so I think it's better stop. Holy Spirit, please help me.

I have regrets, they are very very real, but I

want to surrender it to you, and I don't want

regret to rob me by Santra was talking earlier.

About being robbed.

I don't want regrets or frustrations to rob me any more.

I'm here already. I mean, I'm a I'm a Malaysia,

I'm a Malaysian. I'm gonna make the best of it.

I'm in extrach already. I'm gonna make the best of it.

I mean this company already.

I'm gonna make the best I used to do with

me until the Lord calls me somewhere else.

But until until then, I am going.

To show the right attitude, because the answer will follow

the attitude.

Number five comparison.

Didn't we tell you that it would have been better

if you would have served the Egyptians then to.

Die here in the wilderness. How many of you in

this room like to be compared? None?

Hey, your brother, your brother cleverer than you. Hey, your

sister prettier and you. Hey, you know your cousin doing

better than you. This is the worst kind of feeling. However,

you know that God doesn't compare us. He loves us

all the same, and every one of you in this

roumor you are special in your own birthright.

There is something I can do.

You can't something you can do, I can't, And I

don't need to try to be you, because you can

be you and compliment me, and I can be me

and compliment you, and together we make expj work. I

can't do some of the things Timothy can do. Is

thinks so well. He might not be able to do

somethings I can do. It's okay, you're not here to compare,

but I'll tell you what when you start comparing. How

come he has a car I don't have? How come

he has a wife? How ca he you know? I

tell you what. It's gonna be miserable. And your father,

who wants to release answers to you are will now go.

He will fall his hands for a while.

And we're like, I think my son still has to

learn a few more things, so we want to learn

them tonight. As we close, we want to say, God,

these five things that you're checking my heart.

And I tell you what, you know.

I was comparing myself with other people, comparing myself with

other ministries, comparing myself you know why those people in

America is doing well, why some people have no financial

problems When it comes to ministry, I keep struggling. So

all that, ladies and gentleman brothers, this is will checked

that night, oh that morning, as you say, by the

time I opened my eyes, it was already fourth thirty

in the morning, three to fourth th one and a

half hours on my knees. And I wipe away my

tears because now I understood it's not God's fault that

the answer hasn't come.

It's my heart.

I wiped away my tears, and I lift up my hands,

and I said, Lord, I looked up to you.

Where did this problem start?

He started with them looking at Pharaoh, taking the eyes

of God on Pharaoh. So where do you think the

answer will be? Taking the eyes off Pharaoh and putting

it back on That's how you'll have camp every day.

That's how you'll have church on Sunday, every Monday to Tuesday.

That's how it happens when your eyes are on him.

And so I lifted up my hands. My tears of

sorrow turned into tears of joy. I said, Lord, I'm

sorry forgive me.

Lord.

I get my eyes back on you, and I worship you.

And for the next half an hour I'll just praising

the Lord, because you know, my eyes was on him,

and all I saw was greatness. All I saw was faithfulness.

All I saw was goodness. All I saw was God

can never leave me nor forsake me. All I saw

was God will come through for me. All I saw

was this, God will never failed me. Gone, and I

got up from my knees. I tell you what a

new man you know tonight something had happened, and you

can get up from your seat a new person, and

you can save. My eyes are back on the Lord.

And I tell you what I is still thirty two

years forty said no in the bang.

Still.

Sometimes things don't change so immediately. When a person was

just saying, somebody says not retort immediately. No, No, but

God has something better, really does, And you know what happened.

I got up and I felt as if everything was

taking care already, although nothing changed in the backup. So

I went into I couldn't even sleep. No, it was four,

I don't know for thirty five o'clock by then, I said,

I can see because I'm so excited.

I was so excited I found God again. Yeah, you say,

you Christian, how can you find God again? Yeah?

I see somebodys Christian seed to find God again. And

I found him again, and you know what happened. I

washed my face. I washed my face. I'm so excited.

I comb my hair. I felt for about one week.

I didn't cull my hair properly. You know, when you're

deep bress, your hair shows, you know, and your face shows,

and your dressing shows. And then I wore a really

nice shirt. You know, Actually, you're dressing does show your

heart run it does. Your countenance shows what's really inside here.

If you're heavy, your your your your dressing will show it. Anyway,

as I close, are you ready for this?

As I close? I went to office early.

I remember that I told my staff, two of them,

I said, we will pray together. It's one week left,

so I really announced it.

Early, you know, I said we will pray together.

And we came into office at about seven seventyteen in

the morning, I remember, and I walked in and.

They immediately saw a countenance change. You know.

Some forty three Verse five says, why are you cast

down all my soul?

And why are you disquieted? Within me? Hoping God?

For I shall yet praise him the help of my

countenance and my God. So the countenance comes from forty

three some for the tree was five. The countenance comes

from God. You smile, not because you have to or

you're you're trying to pretend to smile. No, this countenance

is God helping you smile again. It comes from your

heart that's totally free. And as I went in there

and it looked at me, Hi pasta, say hey, hi guys.

I didn't realize that. In the last few days.

I was like, hi guys.

But but this morning, because I was so free, I said,

hi guys, and let's pray, let's pray.

And then we prayed.

I we started praising God and praying, and I could

see the two guys are really crying out to God, like,

you know, because the salary, you know, thirty four and

he says that if it doesn't change the salaries, you know,

so you cry all.

So I said, oh, Lord, you know, but in my heart.

You know, I knew that it was certilty. So I

just said, so I just went it's going to pray.

I said, thank you, Lord, thank you Lord, thank you.

Fifteen minutes past twenty minutes passed almost half an hour,

and these two guys were still crying out to the Lord.

I think Barcea was.

There, so probably and and and uh and I said

I no, no, no, I said, God said to me, Kenneth, enough,

go to the.

Pere box, go to the pure box. So I said, okay.

So I led these two guys because they even though

I was not around, they were still praying with their

ice closed very vigorously.

So I went.

I went off to the Klana Gyre p oo box

where our peer box was. And I remember I took

the key. I was the holder of the key those days.

I opened the I opened a pure box, wow, a

stick of letters. And when I brought the letters out,

you know, I saw the first letter Pharaoh's Army t

NB okay, then Pharaohs Army, second one electric bill, and

then Pharaoh's Army, Pharaoh's Army, Pharaohs. It really drew near.

As I was going through the letters, I came across

one brown envelope. Actually I like white envelope more, but

brown evelope okay. And I don't know who's handwriting.

So I opened.

As I opened the letter, inside was a note saying,

Pastor Kenneth's chin.

This was from Pasta.

I was praying about you that day and the Lord

put it on my heart to give you this. And

with that letter comes a check for fifteen thousand ring

it all right, I stood there and I cried. I

cried because God is Jazz, so faithful he comes through

again and again for us. Let let's let's close by

looking at the last two slides, and then we can

get ready to see what the Holy Spirit was to do.

Then let's change this.

Let's go on one more. So okay, we don't have

the one with Moses or not. Okay, so there's another

slide that that what Moses said.

Oh yeah, thank you very much.

So Moses said to the people, don't be afraid. Stands

still and see. The reason why I put and see

in red is because it started.

With seeing the wrong thing. So you got to see

the right thing. The Lord will fight for you. Somebody say, man,

you gotta trust that.

And the Egyptians that you see today you will see

no longer tomorrow.

Can I confess it over your eyes? Close hit mouth

for just.

A minute, Lord, the Egyptians, the trouble, the problems, the

Pharaoh's army that your people see today, I want to

confess that they will see no more tomorrow.

In the name of Jesus.

The sickness, the disease, the pain, the sorrow, the guilt,

the regret that your people see today, they will see

no longer tomorrow. Whatever the devil has thrown at them,

whatever fighting that, whatever lies, whatever weapon formed.

Against them, by this time tomorrow, in Jesus' name, it

shall no longer harm them. The Egyptians that you see today,

Moses said, you will see no more tomorrow. And let

me look at the last slide as I close. Now,

this is what Moses said to the people. But the

last one I like the most, because this is what

God said to Moses. God said, Moses, stop crying. XPJ

and those of you here. You may have come into

this overnighter with tears. The Lord says to you, stop crying.

Tell the people to move forward. Stretch out your hand

over the red.

Sea, and it will part for you.

Can everybody stand to your feet, please, hallelujah, Thank you Jesus.

I'm gonna stretch my hand over you right now, and

I declare that the rich sea that's before you will

part in Jesus name.

The sea of worry, the.

Sea of anxiety, the sea of depression, the sea of frustration,

the sea of regret, the sea of fear, will part before.

You in the name of Jesus Christ.

Tonight we're gonna lift up both our hands and we're

gonna stretch it over the red sea of our lives,

and we're gonna believe that, even though Pharaoh's.

Army is chasing down our neck, the red seul will

part for us in Jesus name, and we will cross

over on dry land, over to the other side, the

promised land.

And the same sea that parts for us is gonna

come down on the pharaohs of your If you believe in,

say amen, in the name of Jesus, raise up both.

Hands, search them forth over the right seas of your life.

And let's declare how many of you are ready to

get to the other side. Get to the other side.

You're gonna get to the other side.

The side of promise, the side of breakthrough, the side

of blessing.

Hallelujah.

Oh we love you, Jesus, We love you Lord, Thank

you Jesus.

You are faithful God. You never believe us, never forsake us.

You are always with us. God, you are good, and

you are.

Good all the time, all the time.

You are good.

So good boy, the way.

A li.

Do not, the

Day lay, the cle
