-
You're listening to a message to go from ax Church. We hope this message
-
will light up your tea. The Old Testament, the temple was destroyed,
-
altar was destroyed. There is no more. Everything of the Old Testament has
-
been abolished. Agreed, right, But the bread was there in the Old
-
Testament. Have you noticed, Like in the Old Testament there was a bread,
-
the Manna, And in the New Testament we still have that bread.
-
But this bread is the man, the man called Jesus. Agreed right.
-
In the Old Testament, they sprinkle the blood to make the altar clean.
-
In the New Testament, we take in the blood to keep this altar clean.
-
Makes sense? You not that your body is the temple of the Holy
-
Spirit, and you are a living altar. Offer your body as a living
-
sacrifice, pleasing unto God. Romans twelve, chapter one and verse two.
-
I mean, am I speaking to someone? Yeah? Are we good?
-
So? When when God? When God on the night Jesus was crucified.
-
Remember, Paul says, I was sharing it with our group. Paul in
-
one kurd Indian eleven Paul lived one I mean didn't see Jesus. Paul lived
-
after fifty years plus or minus with Christ right. And he says, I
-
received unto the Lord and I'm passing it to you. Amazing man. He
-
got a personal revelation from God, and that person nobody taught him. He
-
got a personal revelation from God, and he is giving. He lifted up
-
the bread, he broke the bread. This is the same God we serve
-
five loaws given to five thousand people. Remember that. Why would you want
-
to break a bread? Give bread to everyone? Why would you want it
-
to take a bread? And he took the bread. He broke the bread,
-
and he didn't feed you. And what did he say? Take eat?
-
This is my body God is similar to that of the Old Testament.
-
He is offering and it is your responsibility and my responsibility to take that body.
-
And God, the first thing that the Lord spoke to my heart is
-
to some of you, to some of us sitting here, we are asking
-
for the provision, but the law is selling. I am here as a
-
provision for you, right in front of you. Take that promises to be
-
for you. Your job is there, your viza is there, your life
-
partner not your sister? No? Yeah, yeah so already so your life
-
partner are there? And yeah, correct, I agree, sister. So
-
she's kicking no for you. Yeah. So your life partners are there,
-
your provisions are there. But let me tell you this morning, the Lord
-
wants you to take and make it as yours. Amen. Come on,
-
raise your hand and say, I am making it as mine. I'm making
-
it as mine. I'm making that job as mine. I'm making that financial
-
blessing as mine. I am making that viza as mine. I am making
-
that marriage as mine. I'm making this blessing, the business to be mine.
-
I am making this mission trip to be mine. I am making everything
-
that God wants to be mine to be mine. He gives you and he
-
blesses you. So the first thing that the Lord spoke to my heart is
-
that that this provision is given to you, and this morning it is going
-
to be transferred to you because you are taking it as yours. Hallelujah.
-
And God gives grace. He makes a single to be in the family,
-
he gives children. Let us make it as mine, the Lord spoke to
-
my heart. The next thing that I felt in my heart is some of
-
us are feeling dry and running. Hello, am I talking to myself?
-
Yes, some of us might feel dry and we are saying God, I
-
am serving and worshiping, I am coming to church. I am attending that
-
da da dad all that stuff. But I'm not too sure whether I am
-
there with you or I am not there with you. I'm there with you,
-
are I am not there with you? When he said he eat,
-
he is in you. So some of us are rather than looking at Christ
-
in us the hope of glory. I'm coming around, and says sister Ellen,
-
Am I with God? Pastor Jack, am I with God? Am
-
I serving the Lord's is saying you in him the hope of glory. You
-
are not going to serve this church. You're not going to serve anyone else
-
for pleasing anyone to know that you serve God. You are doing it because
-
you are in Christ. Amen agree? Right? So these sort of people
-
got one. So in him was the hope. So the body was broken
-
and the body was given, and the body has to be taken, and
-
some of us are absolutely absolutely heartbroken. God. I tried my best,
-
but it is going to go zero. God. We have been planning and
-
planning, but this is coming to go back to zero. Am I making
-
sense? I thought all is said, h this is gone. You're talking
-
about those things. But the Lord has to tell you know what. Your
-
finances may have been broken, your family relationship could have been broken, your
-
hopes may have been broken. But do you know that whatever is broken in
-
the hands of the Lord is multiplied. Whatever was broken in the hands of
-
the Lord was multiplied, and whatever was multiplied was given to the people.
-
Because you will be blessed when you give. And your blessing is in your
-
brokenness, not because you have much you give no. Never do you know
-
like people who are poor gives more than people who are rich, People who
-
are sick and healed prey in ferment prayer than those who are healthy, people
-
who have been delivered from the demonic world has been a blessing to those people
-
who are under the witchcraft. So look at the area you are broken,
-
family, friends, hope lost, children lost, maybe finances lost, maybe
-
jobs. In the area that you have had been broken the most, that's
-
the area the Lord wants to view to be a blessing. And the more
-
the blessing comes, the more you are broken. Because your strength you're not
-
on you. Your weakness is being covered by his strength. You got to
-
hear this word. My strength is made perfect in your weakness. The more
-
you see your weakness, the more you're ready for witness Yeah. The more
-
you are seeing your weaknesses, the more you're prepared for the witnesses. Okay,
-
So the next thing that the Lord has put in my heart is,
-
have you ever felt that you are being targeted? I'm being targeted. Oh,
-
this person doesn't like me, or that lady don't like me, other
-
than your house, other than your spouse. Okay, that's that's that's different.
-
So if you have felt that you have been targeted and you are assailed,
-
the enemy has been targeting you. The teacher has been targeting you.
-
Your friends have been targeting you, your people around us, maybe targeting you
-
based on the race, based on the religion. The Lord has to come
-
and say when he took the cap, he gave the cap and said heay,
-
this is the blood of my covenant. Do you to you even envision
-
what God is giving you? You know what, no one, no one
-
can snatch you out from my hand because I am making a covenant with you.
-
I'm making a covenant with you. No one in this earth can remove
-
you from that place where God has placed you, because He is working on
-
your behalf behind the scene. He's not going to let you go just like
-
that. And it is not the place that blesses you. It is the
-
God that blesses you. Sometimes we think, oh, this is the place
-
I got to be, I will be blessed only here. But you suddenly
-
feel God is strand planting you from the place of your comfort to a new
-
place. Let me tell you you know what. He has gone ahead,
-
that he's planted, already planned already. You are just following him. It
-
might be painful, but bad that pain. God is telling I am protecting
-
you, I am planting you. I will make you grow and be prosperous.
-
Am I talking to few of us here? Yeah? It spoke to
-
my heart, and so I'm going on right. And then the Lord spoke
-
to my heart. Hey, you know what, it is not only the
-
protection to some of us and to many of us. God has to tell
-
I have a plan to prosper you and not to curse you. You know
-
why, when when, when, whenever we take the new Covenant of the
-
Blood, it says, do this in remembrance of me, as long as
-
I come back. Oh, we have a dead guys, we have a
-
dates and this guy is coming, and whether we fail or not, he's
-
coming. So the Lord wants you and me to know get prepared for the
-
dates. We don't know the date yet, but the date is happening.
-
Amen, So bad is in mind those who are waiting for the date.
-
Your date is coming, but we may not know the date. Yeah,
-
system, you cannot say about this all right, So let's let's let's in
-
this context. This is the context that I want. Your breath represents your
-
provision and the presence, and your wine represents your protection and the promise I
-
mean speaking to you. Is it clear? This is in this context where
-
the Lord spoke to my heart and I started to develop this whole message,
-
and I was thinking, God, in which context am I going to speak?
-
And the Lord spoke to my heart about the Book of Jonah. The
-
Book of Jonah. And if you can go directly to third slide, let
-
skip off. Yeah, chapter there are four chapters in the Book of Jonah.
-
If you guys know Jonah, Chapter one will be talking about a prophet
-
running away from God. Chapter you remember, like, hey, you must
-
you must read Jonah one. I love Jonah one because most of the time
-
I am like Jonah one he ran away. God say go here. Jonah
-
will go. And if you are a good Bible student, I would like
-
you to read Jonah chapter only. Four chapters circle the word down, down,
-
down. Jonah went down to Joppah. Jonah went down to the ship.
-
Jonah paid the price. Jonah went down to the bottom of the ship.
-
Jonah went down to the seat. That's how it will be, going
-
down and down and down and down. The more you go away from God,
-
the more you're going to go down. And this is the passage.
-
This is very interesting. Jonah wants to go to Joppa and he paid,
-
but God wants Jonah to go to ninety way. He didn't pay. When
-
you are in the right place with God, he will provide you the blessing.
-
When you are in the right place with God, he gone provide you.
-
That provision. Might not be like the way you expected it. You
-
might want it to go onwn a tarzan, like a tazan on the top
-
of the wheel. But unfortunately you are inside the wheel, inside the whale.
-
Rumor, it would have been fun, right God saying, oh,
-
sit on and the whale. The whale will take you like a movie.
-
No no, no, no, no, God's ways or not your wills.
-
And our friend is running away from God has to be swallowed. Right,
-
So Joannah chapter one is talking about the down and down and down and
-
down. He is a prophet who is running away from God. And in
-
chapter two he is running with God inside the whale's tummy. He is like,
-
oh, hey, I just I just wonder imagine that if you are
-
that tummy. If sorry, if you are that whale. I was because
-
you were turning. I was thinking whether you are focusing or not? Right,
-
because he had imagine, imagine imagine that whale. Probably everyone around the
-
whale could have been bullieded. You have a big tummi right, you have
-
no teeth. The whale that swallowed Johna imagine if it had a teeth,
-
it would have chewed Jonah. So maybe it has a tooth problem. Maybe
-
maybe I'm just saying, maybe maybe the way that Jonah was swallowed upon may
-
have been bullied by the school children. Oh your tummy is be Oh you
-
you are not like us. Other other other way may not have a tamila,
-
But this guy has to go inside. Probably that had a bigger tummy.
-
You know what, even your appearances that chosen by God for a particular
-
reason. How you look, how you grow, how you feel. Your
-
curly hair, your long hair, your white hair is chosen by God for
-
a reason. Don't go and straighten it up. I'm I'm I don't mean
-
that. Okay, Okay, now, mane now mine, let's go,
-
let's go, let's come on, let's go on. No, curly,
-
did I say that outloud? Paul? Okay, sorry, go for Kelly,
-
okay. So and third chapter, he is a man who listened to
-
the voice of God and he is running with God. And he goes and
-
screams to Nay, you are going to be destroyed in the next forty days,
-
and know and behold to his amusement. They changed and they were on
-
fasting and they were on praying. I like the way my sister shared the
-
testimony. Though I was not faithful. I should have spoken in the beginning.
-
But in the end, God came through. Come on, this guy
-
came out and say and they repented, and he get upset with God.
-
I told you so. I told you so. Husband. Do you hear
-
these words? And I told you so? Okay, pastor you laugh.
-
I will tell doctor Jill about that. Okay o posit okay, all right.
-
So on chapter four he goes ahead with God. He shouts back to
-
God, I told you so, right now you are. He gets upset
-
with God and then he has to sit under tree and the leaves was.
-
So these are the four chapters. If you are not good in reading Bible,
-
I recommend you to go back and read Jonah only fourth chapter, with
-
a lot of stories and fun. Probably you may want it to go to
-
the next lad. You may also see there are prophet the book of Jonah,
-
the reluctant prophet. He is like a prodigal prophet. He is in
-
the ship. Second chapter, he is in the fish, third chapter he
-
is in Niniwa. And fourth chapter he's outside ninive. You know what,
-
something very very interesting. As long as you are with God, he may
-
take you to many places. But in all these places he's going to be
-
with you. In the school, out of school, in the college out
-
of college, in the work out of work, in a relationship, out
-
of relationship. As long as you are just saying God, I want you
-
to be there, he's going to be with you, and he's going to
-
continuously talk to you. So our friend, Hey, you choose where you
-
want to be. Do you want to be in the ship paying the price
-
that you want to pay, but unfortunately you will not go on he won't
-
go Or do you want to be in the fish stummy causing it indigestion?
-
Hey, come on, the fish will be having indigestion. Cannot swallow?
-
Cannot you cannot digest? Jonah. Some of our rebelliousness cause pain in the
-
family. Some of a rebelliousness cause pain in the workspace. Come of a
-
rebelliousness causes pain in the church. Oh I don't feel like serving, Oh
-
my man, don't cause tami man. Okay. So sometimes you are in
-
a right place in a speaking the right word in ninety way, but you
-
may not have your expected answer. So don't go out of niniway, because
-
it's going to hurt you. The sun is going to hit you. Hello,
-
Hey, I just wanted you guys to shout out to me. Did
-
God provide for this running prophets? Yeah? What did he provide? Talk
-
to me? Guys, I am a lecturer. You don't answer, I
-
will cause you to come and kneel down here, yeah, yeah, yeah,
-
kneel down in front. So ask the students, Is it all right?
-
Fine? So what did he provide? What did God provide to the
-
running prophets? He provided? Sorry, he provided? He provided the shade?
-
Wah, amazing you come on? What else did he provide? What
-
else did he provide to Jonah? He provided the air for the ship to
-
move brilliant? What else did he provide? He provided the fish? Oh?
-
Do I need to tell that you like fish? Oh? Okay,
-
you feel embarrassed? Right? So he provided the fish with the big tummy
-
and the toothless fish. What else did he provide? Come on more?
-
You can also try? Sorry? New? He wanted new? Oh you
-
wanted here? Okay? After okay? Okay? Can I okay? What
-
else? Who provided? Then? For him to go to the fish?
-
Who provided them? Who provided? He has to pay the driver? Right?
-
Driver, pilot whatever? Captain? Right? So, but he didn't
-
know that it is not the captain of the fish. He had a captain,
-
the Lord of Lord. He missed. We sometimes miss who is the
-
captain. When he is our captain, he provide for our mission. When
-
we are our captain, we have to pay from our mission. Yeah,
-
so this is so interesting that God provided the fish. The God provided the
-
wise. God provided the message. God provided the hard to preach. God
-
provided the mercy for the ninety ways to turn their hard. God provided the
-
even when he was angry, He provided a shade. And some of us
-
will always say, oh I had a scratch in my car. Somebody angry
-
with me. Oh am I missing the will of God. He is not
-
a father who's waiting with the stick and making you, Oh, you made
-
a mistake, papack tying. No, he loves us. He's a loving
-
father. He wants to provide even though I walk through a valley of shadow
-
of death. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me. I just
-
wanted you to, guys, to get out of this mentality of oh he's
-
waiting. No, no, do do you know something very interesting? When
-
God made When God made the man, he said, go fruitful, multiplayer
-
and replenish the end of the earth. He did not say do what I
-
say. You needed to listen to God. But do you know he made
-
you as a ruler. You know what, as a ruler in the school,
-
we use a ruler. We use a ruler to draw the lines right.
-
He wants you to be the ruler for your life based on the God's
-
word. I don't need to tell you don't hang out with this girl.
-
If you are in the will of God, he will draw the ruler and
-
you will say, I don't want to spend more time with you than this
-
time. He's a ruler. He has made you as a ruler. He
-
has made you as a king. Have you ever noticed that we are called
-
as a kingdom of priests, a royal nation. You are called as a
-
royal nation. How can it be a royal nation? So I'm not talking
-
to the congregants. I'm not talking to those who have come here to hear
-
the word. I am talking to the royal priesthood. I'm talking to those
-
royal kings. You know, I am not How can I be the king?
-
How can a priscilla can be the king? How can I be the
-
king? And how can he be the king? Do you know why you
-
can be the king? Because He made you to be the ruler in your
-
area of influence and I am made as my area of influences. In a
-
car, break is not the only important thing in the car? Steering WHI
-
is also an important thing? Hello? Am I making sense? What is
-
more important? Is it the engine or the tire. A engine without attire
-
is nothing. Attire without the engine is only broomgroom sound. So you are
-
so important. And God has placed Priscilla to be in that particular school so
-
that she will be the king. She will be the ruler. How much
-
of blessing can come to the school is ruled by her? How much of
-
blessing can it come to my uni? I am ruling it. You are
-
a ruler to bring the blessings of God in the sphere of your influence.
-
You are the ruler in the place where you God has made you to be.
-
A family are a ruler, and you have the inherent capacity to be
-
fruitful, to multiply, to replenish. But have you noticed when God had
-
said, hey, you can eat any of these things, he forgot.
-
Adam has forgotten that he is a ruler, and he listened to that serpent.
-
Has God told something that you're not supposed to eat? The difference between
-
a ruler and a server. A ruler decides what he can do and what
-
he cannot do. A servant listens to somebody and do what he has to
-
do. And God wants you to be a ruler based because God in you
-
the hope of glory. He wants you to know what you have to do,
-
rather than bound by someone else what you can do or what you cannot
-
do. I don't need to share the word. I don't need to serve
-
the lot because Pastor Jack asked me to no. But I am serving the
-
lot with leisure. I come to pastor and say, Pastor, can I
-
be a host? Can I be in a Sunday school? Because the Lord
-
has given that gift in me. There is no one sitting here without a
-
gift. There is no one in this place sitting without a gift. Bible
-
says in Rome in corinthines to well to each one of your gift is given
-
according to his wish. But you have a gift, and you don't use
-
your gift in the house of God. Let me tell you you're going to
-
use the gift in the world, and that will bring a curse. I
-
like the way the worship team let the worship this morning, and they were
-
singing and they were praising, and my sister was dancing here while she was
-
worshiping the God. If that gift is to worship the Lord, and if
-
she doesn't do this, she might have to do this in some other place
-
where the God's grace is not there, and that's going to cause huts.
-
So it's a grace that God has been given. So you have a gift,
-
and that gift has to be used in the house of God. And
-
if you're not using the gift in the house of God, low and behold,
-
enemy is going to make you to serve him with that gift. Famous
-
actors, famous singers, famous dancers, famous people. They are using their
-
gift not for God, and low and behold, look at the end,
-
and they will die a miserable death, causing pain to themselves and to the
-
world. So so we are to know whether I am a subject of somebody
-
else or I am a ruler. May I pray with you this evening morning,
-
after you take the Holy Communion, come to him as a ruler,
-
because he is going to Heaven rules, and how does heaven rules. He
-
wants his vice rise, he wants his governors, he wants his son.
-
And when I walk in that university with power and authority, when I use
-
the gift of teaching for him, and when I am going in the presence
-
of God, I am being a ruler and I am drawing lines still what
-
stage God can bless that university. I just wanted you to go back with
-
this this afternoon, when after you have taken the Holy communion, that you
-
are not a servant, but you are a ruler. You are not a
-
subject, but you are a son because God loves you and he gives you
-
the grace to choose yourself. Church, I'm talking to the kingdom of priests.
-
I'm not talking to those people who will do everything that others says.
-
And may God bless those who worship team that you will write up your worn
-
words, that you will write the Lord word for the Lord. You will
-
you won't preach your word words because He wants to hear your voice a chord
-
in the heaven, and He will say, this is my beloved son.
-
I'm well pleased. Church. There is this absolute, absolute blessing that that
-
that God has kept in store for us. So we needed to not to
-
Revelation chapter one, verse six. It talks about you are a royal priesthood
-
and has God has made us. It is in Revelation chapter one, verse
-
six. I think in the next slide you will see God has made us
-
to be a kingdom and priest to serve is God. For him be the
-
power and the glory. John Bivius says like this, The authority of the
-
heaven is not a distant concept. The authority of the heaven is a reality
-
waiting it to be unleashed in you. The minute you are able to understand
-
that I am not a servant but a ruler. I am somebody who is
-
going to be dominated by others. But fruitful, multiply and replenish. The
-
Heaven's power is going to explode in you. The Heaven's power is going to
-
be exploded to you. To those who have been waiting for a promotion,
-
promotion is there, and the heaven is opening up, and he is going
-
to call you for a promotion. To those who have been trying for a
-
child, Let me prophesy, be fruitful, multiply, replenish. Those who
-
are waiting for a partner in your life. May God bless not for those
-
who are married. Disclaimer, May God bless you that that person will be
-
seen and God will make you as a blessing. So in this particular thing
-
that we wanted to So the provision is not one day when you're good.
-
God is a god of provision. Remember like in John h fourteen to seventeen.
-
You will see that God has made a fish. And you will also
-
see God is a god of second chances. They God kick away Jonah and
-
say, oh, you ran away from me, go and die in the
-
sea. No, no, He is a God of second chances. And
-
there is some second chances coming to many of you. You are going to
-
have a second chance. You have not left God. God has not gone
-
out from you. He is speaking to you. I am a God of
-
second chance. And God is going to fulfill his desire his will in your
-
life in the second chance. God is not upset with your missed up life.
-
God wants your message in your life. And God is providing you a
-
second chance. And this second chance is greater than that of the former glory,
-
and this is much better than that of the former. Think. Let
-
us not hang up on the past and cry out with the past, because
-
God is a God of second chance. And God also gives you a provision
-
for spirit mutual growth. Did Jonah cry out in that mother in the in
-
the in the in the tummy of the will. I don't think Jonah could
-
have slipped like this for three days. I think it's going to be tight
-
for him every time the way do you think there is ass surrounding him?
-
Coming out? Almost? Come here, go back? So God gives us
-
to to to what should I do? What should I do? God say,
-
hey, you know what, in the time of constraining, in the
-
time of your limitation, look at the limitless bounds and grace of God.
-
You're surrounded by the grace of God. You have gone to that place because
-
you chose to run away from God. But his presence is still there,
-
and God wants you to come out of that place. So God is a
-
god of spiritual chances. Don't ever say God cannot love me. I have
-
missed up my life. I have missed terribly. I have messed up terribly.
-
But He is a good God, and he is willing to use this
-
broken vessel to be a blessing to others. Yeah, the places where you
-
are broken, it will be a blessing. And when I think, I
-
think, I think he would have had a good facial Jonah, because he's
-
in the tummy there is a lot of acid. Probably he went back white
-
and fresh right like no facial No onely to the face, but to the
-
whole body. He might have gone out and say here, I am dada
-
day. What is happening? You're becoming white? So God is God is
-
going to do something awesome. As we told you, God's presence is.
-
Was God's presence still in Jonah? With Jonah in the whale's stummy? Are
-
you sure he is? How sure? How can you say that even inside
-
Jonah's Stummi, God's presence was dead? Oh? What did I say,
-
Jonah? Sam? Never mind? Hey? What do you have eaten in
-
the Wales stamia? Small fish? Maybe? Maybe? How How do I
-
know that Jonah had God's presence even in Wales? Toum me? How do
-
I know? How can I know? Because because he was still alive?
-
Is there anyone alive here? Are you sure you are alive? Shake the
-
person next to you and ask you are alive? Come on, no one
-
is shaking. Come on, come on shake shake. Oh, so you
-
are alive because of the presence of God. You are alive because God has
-
not finished it with you. You are alive because God has a plan for
-
you. You are alive because God's promises are yes and amen to you.
-
You are alive because God wants you to be in the place where he wants
-
you to be and not in the place where you want to be. Amen.
-
So God's presence was there? And did God protect Jonah? How?
-
Where? Where? How did he protect? He protected Jonah from other sharks,
-
But that particular will truthless, will correct. He protected Jonah from probably
-
I don't know, I may be wrong. Probably if he was on the
-
shape, he himself would have jumped, and he may want it to take
-
out his life. He protected his life. Bible says in Isaiah chapter fifty
-
four, no weapon formed against you shall prosper. Hey, weapons will be
-
formed, The enemies will be raised, Those annoying supervisor will be there,
-
those annoying bosses will be there. No weapon will not be formed. Weapon
-
will be formed, but they shall not prosper. And interesting, you wanted
-
to preach preas okay, and every tangue interesting, right, No weapon formed
-
against you shall prosper, and every tongue that riseth against you shall be confounded.
-
Interesting, right, very interesting. This person is talking against me,
-
talking against me, talking against me, talking against me, and one day
-
that tongue will be confounded. Wow, you know, you know so interesting?
-
Is not that you have to be a friend to everyone. The most
-
important thing is you have to be friend with that one who is going to
-
confound that person who's right against you. Don't want many friends, No,
-
I am alone. I am sad. Nobody wants to friend me. Hello,
-
Hello, you are There is a difference between being alone and being lonely.
-
It's okay to be alone with God, but you can't be lonely with
-
a group of friends. I think you have to hear this. It's okay
-
to be alone with God, but it's not okay to be lonely with a
-
group of friends. And you still are alone. So God's protection is something
-
that we really, really really needed to appreciate. Psalm ninety one says he
-
who dwell it in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the
-
shadow of the Almighty. Wow, what a protection that we have had.
-
Men. Imagine if your father is a pilot and you are in that plane
-
and when it shakes, everyone may scream some other thing, but you may
-
be screaming, Dada, I am here. That makes a difference, right,
-
So this morning, I just wanted you to know that you are in
-
a place with God. With presence of God, He is there to provide
-
you. You shall not lack anything, You shall not lack anything. Blessed
-
shall be your storehouse, Blessed shall be your wallet, Blessed shall be your
-
Evallet Also, sister, I understand that blessed shall you be when you come
-
in to attend the interview and to the meeting, and blessed shall you be
-
when you go out to a new country where God wants you to be a
-
missionary. Don't cry out for the past, because the future is better than
-
the past. Hello, So okay, Paul said, I cannot go and
-
take water. I have to show him and I can't drink too much.
-
Paul, I listened to. So the most important thing that we have to
-
understand when we are when we are working with God is that the promise of
-
God have never ever ever left you, never ever ever left you. When
-
God has made me who I am, when God has put into my heart.
-
I was trying to be someone else. I was trying to make something
-
else. I was faking. But when I know that I have the gift,
-
the gift of preaching, gift of teaching, gift of talking, bring
-
gift of healing people through my words, and when I use it with God
-
in the right place, I have no limit. I am being a ruler
-
in the place where God wants to me. But if I don't like to
-
be a preacher, because I want to be a singer like my wife,
-
and she is singing and singing and singing, and if I try to sing
-
the same song, it will be a horrible. Man. You have a
-
gift. You have that gift that can take you to the places where God
-
wants you to serve. And when you understand that gifts and when you understand
-
that calling, and when we are ready willing serving God, that gift will
-
make you as a ruler and not as a servant. I hope and I
-
pray that you will know the gift that God has placed in you and you
-
will serve in the house of God, that you will be a blessing to
-
many. And the last that you needed to know is the promises of God
-
are yes and amen? Interesting promises. God, I messed up my life.
-
Am I going to see you? When I take a holy communion?
-
When I take the cup of Covenant? I am not saying, but he
-
is saying, do this until I come back to see you. Oh,
-
what a promise, man, What a promise that I have? Do this?
-
In remembrance of Me, because you tend to forget that He is there
-
for you. You tend to forget that he's waiting for you. You tend
-
to forget that his provision is for you. You tend to forget that He
-
is loving you, even in the deepest of deepest sin, when Jonah was
-
in sin. But he has committed his life, but his presence never ever
-
ever left him. You and I may forget, and that is why God
-
said, do this in remembrance of me, show that we will be a
-
blessing to others. Church. The bread that was broken reminds you that you
-
have every single provision. And may I pray that you say to God this
-
morning as you take the bread, God, i am broken, but I'm
-
willing to be serving. I'm willing to lay it into your hands. I'm
-
willing God that this broken body use it for your glory. And God is
-
providing you take that bread for a moment. And when you take that bread,
-
remember that's the provision. The provision of a family, the provision of
-
finances, the provision of a life partner, the provision of a financial blessing,
-
provision of a job, a provision of healing that you needed all this
-
way. A provision that is always there and you don't need to struggle for
-
that provision and the presence of God when you eat, when you take at
-
the commandment, and when you follow the whole body together, when the body
-
is going to come together, we are going to say, we are having
-
the presence of God together. That's why I'm not alone. And when we
-
take a cup, remember that there is a promise of protection over your life,
-
and no weapon formed against you shall prosper. He can change the nation's
-
law. He can change anything that he wants to change. He is going
-
to say, this is my beloved child in whom I place. That's not
-
my anointed. He is my prophet, and there is a promise, and
-
that promise is we are going to meet him face to face and we will
-
rejoice with him. Would you want to serve the Lord with the gift that
-
he is giving. It may be preaching, it may be singing, it
-
may be smiling. We need hosts. It may be good with children,
-
It may be good with being a part of TV. It may be good
-
in giving a servant. If we need people, this is not that we
-
need because we wanted to use your gift and you be a ruler. We
-
hope you've been blessed by this message. For more information on our church,
