  61. three messages. Wow, that's a lot for a year. But

  62. what how have we how has it been for us? Right?

  63. But take heart, church, writers and sisters, even though this

  64. is the thirty fourth message that we are hearing from

  65. the beginning of March to today. Take heart, right, let's

  66. hear the encouragement of the Word of God for us today.

  67. First Chronicles, chapter twenty eight. Okay, okay, good, we're doing

  68. good with time. Let's go. If you have your Bibles,

  69. you may turn to it. First Chronicles, chapter twenty eight,

  70. verse one to thirteen. Sorry, will our walk us through

  71. this entire chapter of First Chronicles, chapter twenty eight, right,

  72. And this portion of scripture is the time. It's a

  73. document of a time where King David is yeah, in

  74. declaring to the people the nation that he will be

  75. passing on the baton of building the Temple of God

  76. to his son Solomon. Okay, let's read right now, verse

  77. from verse one. Now, David assembled at Jerusalem all the

  78. all the leaders of Israel, the officers of the tribes,

  79. and the captains of the divisions who served the king,

  80. the captains over thousands, and captains of one hundreds, and

  81. the stewards over all substance and possessions of the King

  82. and of his sons, with the officials, the valiant men,

  83. and all the mighty men of valor. So he's gathering

  84. all the leaders and all the warriors, his warriors, his

  85. mighty men, and he wanted to give a speech right

  86. to Then King David rose to his feet and said,

  87. hear me, my brethren and my people. I had it

  88. in my heart to build a house of rest for

  89. the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and for

  90. the footstool of our God, and had made preparations to

  91. build it. But God said to me, you shall not

  92. build a house for my name, because you have been

  93. a man of war and have shed blood. You know,

  94. when I read this part, I've been i edit, itting

  95. on this chapter for many days, and when I come

  96. to this point, I'm also reminded that, hey, many of

  97. us are so passionate for the Lord because God has

  98. been so so good to us. Like King David, right.

  99. We really want to do everything for the Lord.

  100. You know, we sung You're just not right.

  101. Lord, I give you my own you are my everything.

  102. I want to do everything, you.

  103. Know, we're so passionate, like King David like that. I

  104. want to do everything. But you know, God said that

  105. he cannot build the King the temple. You know so much,

  106. you know, you know, see the passion of King David

  107. wanting to do this for the Lord, his God, the

  108. lover of his soul. But God says no. Wow, And

  109. see how King David respond. You know when someone says

  110. no to you and somebody rejects you, right like King David,

  111. like God rejected him, you know, cannot heartbroken and it's like, oh,

  112. but see how King David respond. I love how his

  113. response is really good? Okay, So so verse four. However,

  114. the Lord God of Israel chose me above all the

  115. house of my father, to be king over Israel forever.

  116. For he has chosen Judah to be the ruler, and

  117. the house of Judah the house of my father, and

  118. among the sons of my father. He was pleased with

  119. me to make me king over all Israel ver was

  120. five and of all my sons, for the Lord has

  121. given me many sons. He has chosen my son Solomon

  122. to sit on the throne of the kingdom of the

  123. Lord over Israel. Verse six. Now he said to me,

  124. it is your son Solomon who shall build my house

  125. and my gods. For I have chosen him to be

  126. my son, and I will be his father. Verse seven. Moreover,

  127. I will establish his kingdom forever. If he is steadfast

  128. to observe my commandments and my judgments as it is

  129. this day's it now therefore in the sight, So this

  130. is King David telling everyone his people right Verse eight,

  131. He's continuing his speach. He says, now, therefore, in the

  132. sight of all Israel, the assembly of the Lord, and

  133. in the hearing of our God, be careful to seek

  134. out all the commandments of the Lord, your God, that

  135. you may possess this good land and leave it as

  136. an inheritance for your children after you forever. Okay. So

  137. he is charging the people of Israel to obey God. Okay,

  138. obey his commandments, so that there's a promise that we

  139. that they will possess this good land and live inheritance

  140. to their children. Okay. Continue Verse nine. As for you,

  141. my son Solomon, know the God of your father, and

  142. serve him with a loyal heart and with a willing mind.

  143. For the Lord searches all hearts and understands all the

  144. intent of the thoughts. If you seek him, he will

  145. be found by you. But if you forsake him, he

  146. will cast you off forever. Verse ten. Consider now, for

  147. the Lord has chosen you to build a house for

  148. the sanctuary. Be strong and do it the Nike get

  149. it from this verse do it. Just do it right.

  150. So now you know it's from the word of God,

  151. not Nike. Okay, just do it right. You can even

  152. highlight if you see, you can highlight it. Now, God says,

  153. just do it. Be strong and do it. Then Verse

  154. eleven says, Verse eleven says, yes. Then David gave his

  155. son Solomon the plans for the vestibule, its houses, its treasuries,

  156. its upper chambers, it's inner chambers, and the place of

  157. mercy sid verse twelve, right, and the plans for all

  158. that he had by the spirit of the courts of

  159. the House of the Lord, of all the chambers all around,

  160. of the treasuries of the House of God, and the

  161. treasuries of the dedicated things right and verse thirteen. Also

  162. for the divisions of the priests and of the levites,

  163. for all the work of the service of the House

  164. of the Lord, and for all the articles of the

  165. service in the House of the Lord. Very detailed stuff. Okay,

  166. I'll just pause here for a moment. And you know

  167. the plans that God had that King David had in

  168. his heart to build for God. Right, everything is detailed

  169. out for his son to do it right, because he

  170. he wants to give God his best, but he can't

  171. do it. His son needs to do it. So he

  172. has to make sure that his sons get it right.

  173. So very detail, you make sure you do everything here. Okay,

  174. that's what in other words in Malaysian or today's language. Okay,

  175. we're trying to say, right, and let me just summarize

  176. from verse fourteen to eighteen. So verse fourteen to eighteen

  177. continue to speak of David's generosity in providing gold and

  178. silver for all articles used in every kind of service

  179. of the temple, lamp stands and their lambs, tables of

  180. the show, Breid Fox, Basin's pictures, bowls, alter incense, construction

  181. of the chariot, that is, the gold cherubim that spread

  182. their wings and overshadow the art of the covenor of

  183. the Lord. So it's very generous. King David really gave

  184. his best, you know, he's all. He gave everything that

  185. he can do as a king. Yeah, gold, silver, everything

  186. covered right, everything right as you can go back and

  187. also read that. Okay, we continued from verse nineteen. All

  188. this said, David, the Lord made me understand in the

  189. writing by his hand upon me all the works of

  190. these plans. Verse twenty and David said to his son Solomon,

  191. be strong second time. Already he's telling his son, be

  192. strong and of good courage, and do it second time.

  193. So highlight that not Nike said, but David said to

  194. King Solomon, do it right, be strong and encourages and

  195. do it. Do not fear nor be dismayed. For the

  196. Lord God, my God will be with you. He will

  197. not leave you nor forsake you until you have finished

  198. all the work for the service of the House of

  199. the Lord. Sounds familiar. Right, God will be with you

  200. until the end of the age, until you finish the work. Right,

  201. sounds familiar, right right. Verse twenty one continue says, here

  202. are the divisions of the priests and the levites for

  203. all the service of the House of God. And every

  204. willing craftsman will be with you, hey, even craftsmen. Materials

  205. will be there. Craftsmen are ready for you to do

  206. the work. Everything is in place. In other words, Verse

  207. twenty one is trying to say, right, every willing craftsman

  208. will be with you for all manner of workmanship, for

  209. every kind of service. Also the leaders and all the

  210. people will be completely at your commade. Ha ha, imagine

  211. if you're at King Solomon's position. So this message is

  212. really putting ourselves in that position of King Solomon. Right,

  213. King David is like our forefathers, our forefathers of the

  214. faith has already. You know, we have been hearing messages

  215. after messages. We have been hearing testimonies after testimonies of

  216. how great God is, the God who made the universe,

  217. that the God that split the raid sea, that turned

  218. water into wine, the God that loves us so much

  219. he laid down his life for us, went to the

  220. grasd Hey, we all know this story read right, and

  221. it is all at our dispense, right, you know, this

  222. is what we are in that position of Solomon. Yeah,

  223. let's be reminded today we are in that position of Solomon, right,

  224. and we have everything in our dispense, materials and even crowdsmen,

  225. willing crowdsmen and leaders at our command. You know, I

  226. tell you if you do not know you are a

  227. child of God today, how powerful, how powerful you you

  228. are to speak for the word of God and things happen.

  229. You know today, Let's be reminded we are His child,

  230. and we can take charge of our challenges, our sicknesses,

  231. the challenges in our families or in our workplaces. I'm

  232. even speaking to myself. I have a challenge at my

  233. workplace right now, and I was still texting with my

  234. colleague just now. But yes, you know, I'm also speaking

  235. it into being victory and you know, just overcoming the

  236. challenges that we are going through. Hey, we are a

  237. child of God. Tell our neighbor, I'm a child of God.

  238. Tell the other neighbor, I am a child of God. Yes,

  239. all right, very important. Okay, so just a highlight for today.

  240. The main scripture that we want to focus on us today,

  241. focus on today is First Chronicles, chapter twenty eight, verse

  242. nine to ten. Right today we will focus on this part,

  243. just gleaning on the very important words that what King David,

  244. or rather our forefathers in the faith is trying to

  245. tell us today, even as we are journeying on as

  246. a child of God and also a soldier of the

  247. Lord our God. Right verse nine, it says, as you

  248. as for you, my son, know the God of your

  249. father and serve him with loyal heart and with a

  250. willing mind, right. For the Lord searches all hearts and

  251. understands all the intent of the thoughts. If you seek him,

  252. he will be found by you. And if you forsake him,

  253. he will cast you off forever and verse tence is

  254. considered now, for the Lord has chosen you. God has

  255. chosen us. The Lord has chosen you to build a

  256. house for his sanctuary. In this case is his kingdom

  257. here in Cyberjaya. And wherever God has placed you, whether

  258. is it in Taiping in India, in Melai, wherever you

  259. are being placed in Putrajaya. God is telling us he

  260. has chosen us to build his kingdom wherever he placed us.

  261. And be strong and do it. Okay, very bold there

  262. if it's not bold in your Bible, bolded yourself, builded,

  263. be strong and.

  264. Do it right.

  265. It's two words, four wards or five words, right, but

  266. it has it carries a lot of weight, right, okay, right.

  267. So God has chosen King Solomon to build a house

  268. a place of rest for the arc of the Covenant.

  269. All this while the temple was in a tent right.

  270. King David wanted to build God a temple, but God

  271. would not allow David to do so, as he is

  272. a man of war, and his son King Solomon to

  273. build it. Right, it was a great project for King Solomon.

  274. It took him how many years to build anyone knows

  275. seven years. It took King Solomon built seven years to

  276. complete the temple. Well, imagine seven years without technology to

  277. build a magnificent temple for the Lord is really an accomplishment, right,

  278. seven years. Hence, King David in this verse charged his

  279. son on these important points in order that he could

  280. accomplish what God had assigned him to do. So point

  281. number one for us from God today, Know the God

  282. of your Father. In I was read, I was studying

  283. on this. Know the God of your Father. Another version

  284. from I think amplified version Bible says, have personal knowledge

  285. of him, be acquainted with and understand him, appreciate, heed,

  286. listen to cherish him, or cherish him. Right, Know the

  287. God of your Father, Know so well that it will

  288. produce something right. A man know God right. In Jeremiah

  289. chapter nine, verse twenty three to twenty four. You can

  290. write this in your notes as well. The Word of

  291. God says that says the Lord, let not the wise

  292. man glory in his wisdom. Let not the mighty man

  293. glory in his might. Nor let the rich man glory

  294. in his riches. But let him who glories glory in

  295. this that he understands and knows me that I am

  296. the Lord exercising loving kindness, judgment and righteousness in the earth.

  297. For in this idelight, says the Lord. Amen. So, if

  298. you are looking for the God of the God of

  299. the Church, this is the God of the Church. Right.

  300. He is one, He is Lord. He's the one who

  301. exercises loving kindness. He loves us, and he is a

  302. just God. He exercises judgment, and he is a righteous God.

  303. He exercises righteousness. Know that we can trust in him,

  304. and we can put our trust in him, and we

  305. can follow him. Right, Okay, So know the God of

  306. our Father? And other Verse Daniel, Chapter eleven, verse thirty two,

  307. a very famous one. Those who are those who do

  308. wickedly against the covenant, he shall corrupt with flattery. But

  309. the people who know their God shall be strong and

  310. carry out great exploits very important Bible verse to also

  311. remember now those who know their God? Do you know

  312. your God? Do you know the God of your Father?

  313. Do you know him? So so cherishedly? How you know him. Know,

  314. it's such a limited English word. Do you cherish him?

  315. Do you?

  316. Are you acquainted with him? Are you heeding his voice? Right?

  317. Do you appreciate him? Do you know him? Do you

  318. know him? Right? Know the God? No, know your God,

  319. and you shall be strong and carry out great exploits

  320. for him. John Chapter seventeen, verse three. And this is

  321. eternal life, Jesus say, is this is eternal life, that

  322. they may know you the only true God and Jesus Christ,

  323. whom you have sent. Wow. Amen, this is eternal life. Right.

  324. If you are new here, you are listening to this

  325. audio recording, and you are new to the Christian faith,

  326. know that for God so loved the world, he sent

  327. his one and only son, that whosoever believes in him

  328. shall not perish, but have eternal life. And this is

  329. the eternal life that may that they may know you,

  330. that we may know God. Eternal life is about knowing

  331. God and the only true God and Jesus Christ, whom

  332. you have sent. Amen. So point one, know the God

  333. of your father. Point two, serve him, obey him as

  334. we already know him. Let's obey his way. Let's serve

  335. him with a loyal heart and a willing mind with

  336. our all as we have sung just now, without all

  337. our all our hearts. Let's give God our best. Right,

  338. Let's not drag our legs. Let's not be late for

  339. what God has prepared for us. Right. If we really can't,

  340. then let's be accountable to our leaders and just let

  341. them know we are going to be late. Right, Let's

  342. honor the servant of God's God as well. Right for

  343. the Lord's all hearts. I'm just focusing on this verse

  344. nine to ten of First Chronicles. Right, First Chronicles, Chapter

  345. twenty eight, Verse nine to ten. Right, serve the Lord,

  346. serve him and obey him with a lawyer heart and

  347. a willing mind. For the Lord searches the heart and

  348. understands all the intent of thoughts. God sees our hearts

  349. even as we serve him, brothers and sisters. Right, he

  350. sees our hearts. He knows though people may not understand

  351. around us, but He sees our hearts. And so that's

  352. why let's give out all. Because God searches our hearts.

  353. The heart is referenced repetitively, repetedly, repeatedly, sorry, repeatedly. The

  354. heart is referenced repeatedly, because our actions follow the leanings

  355. of our hearts. Correct, our actions follow the leanings of

  356. our hearts. Right. So in Matthew chapter six, verse twenty one,

  357. where your treasure is there, your heart will be also right. Right, So,

  358. if Paul's heart is a Priscilla there, his heart will

  359. be right right, civil liv in Priscilla as well?

  360. Right right?

  361. If where your treasure is there, your heart will be also.

  362. So where is your heart? Whets my heart? Where is

  363. your heart? Say? Yeah, is where is your heart? Right?

  364. Where is your heart? Where is my heart? Good question? All,

  365. this very short question is very good reflective question. Where

  366. is my heart? Let's continue Matthew Chapter twenty two was

  367. thirty six to thirty eight. Say, teacher, which is the

  368. great commandment in the law? Verse thirty seven says Jesus,

  369. Say to him, you shall love the Lord your God

  370. with all your heart, with all your soul, and with

  371. all your mind. This is the first and great commandment.

  372. Jesus says, right, right, Okay, So that's the second point,

  373. to serve God and obey him with our all. Yes,

  374. if we have been serving already, yes, But is it

  375. our all? So? If it's not, then let's ask ourselves God,

  376. ask ourselves, where is my heart? Right? Okay? Okay? Third point,

  377. seek him and you will find him.

  378. Where is God?

  379. Seek him and you will find him. Third point Jeremiah

  380. twenty nine, verse thirteen also says, and you will seek me,

  381. God saying here, and you will seek me and find me.

  382. God promises that when we seek him we will find him.

  383. When condition when you seek, when you search for me

  384. with all your heart. If you have not found God,

  385. that yet means we have not searched him with all

  386. our hearts.

  387. Not you find by God promises. Here's a God.

  388. Who keeps his promise. He is a God. He's a

  389. promise keeping God. Yeah, and whatever he says he will

  390. keep doing it right, he will. He's right. And if

  391. you have not find it yet, doesn't mean that God

  392. didn't keep his promise. But have we have we us

  393. with all our hearts? Have we seek him with all

  394. our hearts? Right? If you have not found an answer yet,

  395. let's take a step back and ask ourselves. Have I

  396. searched God with all my heart yet? Okay? That is

  397. point number three point number four. This is from First Chronicles,

  398. chapter twenty eight, verse ten. Right, God has chosen you

  399. point four. God has chosen you. Be strong and do it. Haha,

  400. be strong and do it. Wow. I always remind myself God,

  401. especially on Monday mornings.

  402. All very hard, but the word of God speaks to me.

  403. Bit strong, Olivia, and just do it. Carry your bible

  404. and bring it to the other.

  405. Just do it.

  406. Okay, God, I will do it.

  476. in what Jesus says the great commission, right, Jesus is

  478. the work is done. Similar, similar, I can see similar

  479. things that right until the work is done. The work

  480. is not done yet. Okay, let's do it together, right.

  481. Just a very quick story from myself, you know. Past

  482. one October October twenty twenty three, I had a scope

  483. surgery to remove cysts from my womb and endometrio cysts.

  484. Right the post surgery. After after the surgery, post surgery,

  485. the doctor injected in me a certain medication to hold

  486. my period for three months. Three months later, I ran

  487. back for a follow up checkup. The doctor gave me

  488. some pills and tell me to take it to hold

  489. my period to avoid having the seas to grow again.

  490. Okay in my womb, right, and yes, so it's supposed to.

  491. The pill is supposed to hold my period for longer

  492. duration to reduce the growth of rate of the cysts. However,

  493. I was not comfortable taking the pills. I don't know why,

  494. I know, Peacela doctor, okay, I cannot. Yeah. Despite having

  495. given an okay, it's safe to take the pills to

  496. treat andrometricist patients by some of the GPS that I

  497. had like second opinion with, I wanted to monitor my

  498. symptoms to see whether that my period will come naturally

  499. or not without taking appills. So for the past one year,

  500. since October last year, I did.

  501. Not have my period.

  502. WHOA, I don't know is it a miracle or not?

  503. But yes, I didn't have my period. It's it's so nice.

  504. I don't know. I don't have the thing about like,

  505. you know, caring my you know, having gone through PMS,

  506. don't have all the emotions and everything or weakness, like

  507. I'm the doer. I'm a duer. I need to do things.

  508. If I don't know things, I feel like so not productive.

  509. Like so for me to have not no period, it's like, yeah,

  510. let's like pay it up, like yes, like like I

  511. don't know, sorry goes and you can understand now, man

  512. beving me for a while. Yeah, So it was so nice.

  513. You know, for entire year, I could go to Bali

  514. and my husband and I even have to think about Okay,

  515. I did bring a few just in case it suddenly comes, right, So,

  516. but I had a great time. You know, no period,

  517. don't have to worry. You don't have to worry. Go

  518. swimming or anything. Yay, can go swimming, right. Yeah, so

  519. I didn't have my period. So honestly, it was a

  520. wonderful feeling of being free from the monthly pre menstrual

  521. syndrome PMS. And honestly I was more productive in getting

  522. things done for my family, have more time to spend

  523. with my family, and also since my mother in law

  524. recently has gone home to Johor down south, it's not

  525. with us right now, and spending time with the family

  526. and doing ministry without any interruption in between right, I

  527. could travel to Bali, like I said, right, Oh, all

  528. the joys of having no PMS feels like when I

  529. was a kid again before getting my first period, Like, yeah,

  530. I can do everything now. So it was. It was

  531. not until last Saturday, on the twelfth of October. I

  532. went back to the doctor because I know, and I

  533. shared this with different ones, my my friends and yeahs

  534. also was talking to me like, hey, doesn't sound right. Yeah,

  535. I know this is all right, but it feels good

  536. to see you don't see the doctor. Doctor will ask

  537. me a lot of questions, you know. But I went back. Okay,

  538. I thought, yes, I think I better go back. So

  539. I went back to the doctor and asked him why

  540. I still do not have my period though I had

  541. not taken the pills. He checked and scanned my womb.

  542. The wall linings are thickening, probably due to not having

  543. period for a year. They are noises, praise God, gnurses already.

  544. But I have, of course last eight counts due to surgery,

  545. the surgery that I had last year, and also maybe

  546. because I do not have any period. I do not know. Yeah,

  547. so doctor was checking. Everything seems okay, everything seems fun.

  548. They say, maybe let's check your hormone levels. Right. He

  549. was asking me some questions like, hey, do you have

  550. symptoms of menoto pause, like hald flush and I said, no,

  551. I'm enjoying myself. I can't even go for net both tournament.

  552. The other day. Oh you want a place?

  553. Yeah? Yeah, so I had I had fun, you know,

  554. being myself again and I was good.

  555. It was good.

  556. Doctor, I know, no nothing I'm going. I'm doing that.

  557. So the doctor yeah. So then the doctor, yeah, check

  558. my homone levels also all good? Was everything normal? But

  559. don't know why I still don't have my period. Then

  560. he gave me another set of pills. I'm like okay.

  561. He said, these pills is for you to have your

  562. period again. I'm like, okay, doctor, I will take it. Okay.

  563. I took it. So while while taking my my the

  564. pills for having my period, I had my box of

  565. pills that hold my period. Right, it didn't. I I

  566. didn't even take it. So I gave it back to

  567. the pharmacies as a pharmacy please have it back. You know,

  568. it's an expensive pill. So I said, why don't you

  569. use this for someone else? You know? They didn't refunded me,

  570. but I say it's okay. If I take it, I'll

  571. just throw it and it's just wasted, right, give it

  572. back to the pharmacists and see what they can do

  573. for others LA. Right. So anyway, I still have that

  574. pill that has to help me to have my period.

  575. So I was also still doubtful in taking the pill.

  576. So I'm like, okay, I'll just put it for a

  577. while and let's see what house my body reacting up.

  578. So that same night, that same night, I suddenly had

  579. my period and that PMS came back, all the familiar pms,

  580. feeling like oh, feeling weak again. You know, I don't

  581. miss this, but it's familiar, like Okay, then yeah, the

  582. period came and yeah, so praise God, my period came back.

  583. I don't know how to say praise God, but yeah,

  584. I'm normal. Now what do you I don't know.

  585. How to explain.

  586. All the girls can understand, right, Okay, sorry, but yes,

  587. I I'm just saying that, you know you really really

  588. I just also want to apologize. But we should also

  589. all listen to our doctors. Doctors said take payer, please

  590. take your prayers. Okay, follow the medication prescribed by the doctors.

  591. But in this case, I was really not at east

  592. to take the pills, but I because that I don't

  593. I don't think I need it, right, Okay, sorry, sorry

  594. all the medical practitioners. All right, I even written yes,

  595. so I written it. But truly I believe God has

  596. healed me from the andrometricist condition. It's a condition where

  597. you know, the tissue linings will envelope the uterists, right

  598. and when when when I have my period, usually the

  599. walls in the inner lining of the womb usually breaks down.

  600. But for my case, andrometricys patients who have their the

  601. the tissues breaking down outside so it becomes like very painful.

  602. So the pill is to help that. But yeah, so

  603. thank God, I'm totally hell without needing needing any more pills.

  604. So really I think it's supernatural. I truly believe God

  605. has healed me. So don't get me wrong. There are

  606. patients who need to have medication to control the andrometrics

  607. and cist growth rate, which will help improve the quality

  608. of life instead of suffering, true the pain regularly, but

  609. really really thank God for and medical advancement really is important, right,

  610. But for my case, it's a journey. It's a journey

  611. of faith with my God. Okay, and and it taught

  612. me a very important life lesson that we can be

  613. living a life that seems fine but it is but

  614. is it truthfully fine? For example, like I didn't have

  615. my favorite right, Yes it seems good, but is it

  616. truly okay? Yeah, we may be in this journey of

  617. faith with the Lord, everything seems fine, Praise.

  618. The Lord, hallelujah.

  619. I'm living fine? But are we Is it really fine?

  620. So it's a good heart check. Yeah for us even

  621. this coming, we do have a reflection with the Lord

  622. and yeah, speak to the speak to the Holy Spirit

  623. about this. Yeah, are we living a life that is fine?

  624. But is it truly fine? Or am I just living

  625. in denial? It is my relationship with God real? Or

  626. is it superficial? Is it pleasing to God living my

  627. life with just having the form of Godliness but denying

  628. its power? If my God is so powerful and real,

  629. what is holding me back from sharing his wonders to

  630. others around me? Yeah, it's a good ques question. Right,

  631. So let's let's be honest before the Lord on this

  632. question on how has it been? How has it been

  633. for me? How has it been? How has it been.

  634. For all the word of God spoken over our lives,

  635. how has it been? What has my response been?

  636. All this?

  637. Wild? Let us not be in that position of like Jonah? Right,

  638. let us not be in that position. But let us

  639. obey his word daily. Right, Let's obey his word, his

  640. daily bread, and let's obey him daily, because today is

  641. the day that the Lord has made, and we will

  642. rejoice and be glad as as it is today. Today

  643. is the today, twentieth of October. Right, is now the

  644. thirty four message that we are hearing since much beginning

  645. of March until now? Right? Thirty fourth time? Ready? Or

  646. how many times? It's like God giving us second chances

  647. thirty fourth chances thirty fourth opportunity to obey him again?

  648. Right?

  649. Isn't it good to be alive to be able to

  650. obey him again? Even though we have obeyed him yesterday,

  651. It's also okay, and it's great to obey him again

  652. because we never know we are breaking through something that

  653. we cannot even see. We could be a blessing to

  654. another person to break through and to have faith to

  655. move forward, to advance the Kingdom of God. Together.

  656. Amen?

  657. Right? So in Hebrews three seven to eight says. Therefore,

  658. as the Holy Spirit says today, if you hear his voice,

  659. do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion in

  660. the day of trial in the wilderness. But let's hear

  661. his voice and let's obey him. Amen.
