  1. With what God is doing in our church today, I want to share

  2. this. Activating your calling.

  3. Activating your calling. I do believe that every

  4. believers carries a divine call. Do you believe that everyone of

  5. us, every believers Kitantanandere we carry a divine

  6. call from God in democratapat exo on you have a calling from

  7. the Lord. Come on, say to the to the other

  8. person, OK, so you go to Salikod Satobangan.

  9. You have a divine call, something God himself placed

  10. inside you. It is something that God placed

  11. inside you, the giver of life, the author of life gave it unto

  12. you. Your calling is not an accident,

  13. it's on. It's not a hobby, it's not an

  14. optional assignment. It is a God designed purpose

  15. created uniquely for your life. Amen.

  16. You are unique. Oh na Amo unique gifts na Amo

  17. unique pina Sahi na purpose na no na Amo dresa Cali Bhutan Hey

  18. man, But I want to tell you, many believers today are stuck

  19. OK, Staxilla sakali Bhutan. So worldliness, maybe some, some

  20. money. OK, A lot of people, I want to

  21. tell you, a lot of people, they think that the main purpose of

  22. their existence on earth is to have more money.

  23. There are a lot of people, Nang ilhan Murakamando Yang Ilhan

  24. purpose of their life here on earth is just to gain money, to

  25. have treasures, to have material possessions.

  26. But I want to tell you it's not I I don't think that's the main

  27. purpose why you are here. Well, akani anhidari

  28. paramahimondato. That's why politician ghost

  29. projects even though they are already rich.

  30. I don't understand because again, most of the people here

  31. on Earth, they thought that as they gain millions of money,

  32. billions maybe, or they gain luxury, luxury cars and big

  33. houses, they thought that they are great.

  34. They are, they are doing what they are called to do.

  35. But I want to tell you, your money, OK?

  36. Your money, your possession, everything that you can gain in

  37. this world will will come to nothing when you die.

  38. You cannot carry a single peso. You cannot carry a single

  39. million to heaven. Well, I say believe, Amen.

  40. So a lot of people are entangled by this, by this wrong beliefs,

  41. wrong motive, wrong purpose of your existence here on earth.

  42. You are not here just for money and so on.

  43. A lot of people are so sunny entangled by studies as well,

  44. like Kalabang and Ilhan studies, Karan and #1 priority in life.

  45. But I want to tell you, you need to study, right?

  46. But that's not the main thing. Maybe gibu tankasa SA college

  47. gibu tankasa universities not just because of gaining

  48. knowledge. Gibu tankani Lord Dihasa

  49. University called asakan escuela karon for a great purpose.

  50. Paraga miton kani Lord go asaka nasquila Han.

  51. Amen. Do we have people from

  52. University of Mindanao? OK.

  53. Do we have people from any other colleges in Davao City?

  54. OK. Do we have do we have students

  55. from any high school or Senior High schools in Davao City?

  56. Do we have you guys? OK, we have students here from

  57. University of Southern Mindanao come back into the bottle.

  58. You are placed in that area for a purpose, not just to gain

  59. knowledge, but for you to be used by God mightily wherever

  60. you are. Amen.

  61. So yeah, a lot of people are also entangled by pleasure

  62. feelings, yeah, addictions they are addicted into a lot of

  63. things. And so my gamut and Ilhan in a

  64. gamut in a long time, the long time Milasa Ilhan addictions,

  65. the addicted drugs addicted Ilenon addicted cigarillo, the

  66. hand put addicted on games. OK, Tahimic bato bato salangit

  71. media Dion they are so yes tapos magma says private list open

  72. friends like picture but like we are so we are so addicted to

  73. ourselves. There are a lot of people

  74. putting they are so addicted to food every time want to see us

  75. at different restaurants, OK or coffee shops or whatsoever.

  76. Pictures on the Leila Pagani posters and pictures of social

  77. media. Oh my God, can I hang along

  78. focus and have seen a lot of people being entangled by a lot

  79. of games, OK, online games and sometimes

  80. attention games and I've seen a lot of Facebook Batan on they

  81. are being hospitalized hospital. It is because just because they

  82. they are into game addiction and then they are not sleeping for

  83. five days, five nights well, at night sleep.

  84. They are so awake for five days just to play games.

  85. I want to tell you that's not the main purpose why you exist

  86. here on earth. OK?

  87. That's not your main purpose. Hallelujah, Hallelujah.

  88. Again, I want to remind you, you have a call, but sometimes you

  89. sense God calling you, but you don't know how, how to respond

  90. to it, how, how to activate it. Sometimes we feel the stirring

  91. of God in our hearts, but we don't know how to step into it.

  92. OK, but I want to tell you, the Bible says stir up.

  93. OK, in only Paul, KT Motiana says stir up the gift of God,

  94. which is in you. Stir up the gift of God, which

  95. is in you. This means that your calling

  96. doesn't activate itself. Can hang land.

  97. You need to rise up and awaken it.

  98. You need to rise up, awaken the calling in your heart.

  99. You must cooperate with the Holy Spirit to activate what God has

  100. placed in your heart. Amen.

  101. Amen. I'm, I want to give you some 3

  102. principles how to activate the call of God in your heart #1 OK.

  103. So yeah, I don't want to use a lot of time for this one because

  104. again, this is, this is just a simple message.

  105. OK? Number one, respond to God's

  106. voice. Everybody say response to God's

  107. voice calling begins with hearing.

  108. Did you know that God speaks? Did you know that he speaks to

  109. you? But sometimes we don't take time

  110. to listen, Tama, even in our prayers.

  111. Most of the time when we pray, we do.

  112. We do all the talking, Saba khaita.

  113. OK, But we never waited for God to speak.

  114. Most of the time when we pray, we rush you.

  115. What now? I got to Simon pray.

  116. And I said, Lord, you know what I mean, Amen.

  117. And I thought, OK, we are so in a rush when we wake up in the

  118. morning, pass pass Kaita. And we never took time to hear

  119. the voice of the Lord. But I want to tell you, the Lord

  120. speaks, but He needs a lot of people to take time to listen.

  121. Amen. Amen.

  122. Take time to listen. Hallelujah.

  123. He is looking for people that will take time to listen to the

  124. voice of God. I do believe there are ways of

  125. God talking to us. OK, There are still small voice

  126. that we can hear deep within our spirits.

  127. God sometimes talk to us in our hearts.

  128. The Lord will just highlight things into our minds, in our

  129. thoughts. Sometimes we can hear God

  130. audibly. You can hear God Imohan goggling

  131. on the Lungan. There are people that experience

  132. that. OK, but The thing is, the

  133. requirement for you to hear the voice of the Lord, you need to

  134. take time to listen. Amen.

  135. So God always calls us before He sends us.

  136. Tama, before you are being sent, the Lord is calling you.

  137. I do believe she, John Paul, graduates as a Sapphire School

  138. of Ministry. I do believe so, right?

  139. I do believe see Albert Gibbelinia and architect like

  140. dream architectures you entered, but Gibbiania and architecture

  141. not dream to answer to the call of God.

  142. I do believe. I do believe the decision.

  143. Sakina Bohini Albert, right, Albert As I said, Albert, OK, I

  144. do believe that that was not easy because see Albert Delisha

  145. karabang pucho pucho or say something like OK, Delisha Tong

  146. NASA Pinacolos classroom. I think knowing Albert, I think

  147. top one, top two, top three science school.

  148. Yeah, I've seen, I've seen a lot of his his art piece.

  149. I've seen, I've seen a lot of his paintings.

  150. He is talented. He is worth to be called

  151. architect Albert J Pennyas. But I want to tell you, Gibeah

  152. and NIA in a dream, it is because he wants to answer the

  153. call of God in his life. My question is what?

  154. What can you give up just to answer the call of God?

  155. There are a lot of students Kuya Buddy at the Monet or Kuya Arman

  156. at the Levad. This prepares exam examinations

  157. on Monday. So this for one month, summa cum

  158. laude. Seek first His Kingdom and His

  159. righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.

  160. Seek first His Kingdom. Prioritize God.

  161. In other words, do not just prioritize something else and

  162. then ask God to bless you. That's a problem with us

  163. sometimes we prioritize everything else and then ask

  164. God, Lord, please make me summa cum laude.

  165. Lord, please, exam. Lord, please.

  166. I will serve you after that prayer.

  167. OK, just, I just want to share this.

  168. Lord, Can you imagine my attic, you know?

  169. No, never. If you want the blessings of the

  170. Lord, prioritize him. Everybody will say prioritize

  171. him. Amen.

  172. So God, I, I, I want to say it again.

  173. God always calls before his sins.

  174. Moses heard the voice of the Lord during the experience of

  175. burning Bush. God called him there, OK, during

  176. that time, now I burning Bush. But the Bush was not consumed

  177. and God spoke to him. Same will Heard the voice of God

  178. in the night, in the night time, OK, He was sleeping and God was

  179. calling him. You what?

  180. Same will and then same one, same one will just rise up and

  181. go to Eli the priest, and then Anasa.

  182. See someone. Anasa, are you calling me?

  183. Are you calling my name? How can I help you?

  184. OK, that's my own words. OK, Are you calling me?

  185. And no, Eli said no. Go back to sleep.

  186. And then that happened again. And on the third time, OK, I, I

  187. think on the second time, OK, and only Eli, when that voice

  188. will call you again, say, Lord, here I am, I'm listening.

  189. When God is calling you again, are you willing to listen and

  190. are you willing to respond? Isaiah heard the voice of God

  191. saying, whom shall I send? Who will go for us?

  192. And Isaiah said Here I am Lord, send me.

  193. He never said, Here I am Lord, send them.

  194. Here I am Lord send John Paul. Here I am Lord send.

  195. Send, O Young. No, Hallelujah, Isaiah said,

  196. here I am, Lord, send me. So your calling is activated the

  197. moment you respond to the call of God, saying here I am, send

  198. me, Lord, here I am. Send me to where you want me to

  199. be. So how to respond?

  200. How to respond to the voice of the Lord?

  201. These are some practical things here 1st is quiet your heart to

  202. listen again you are so a lot of people are distracted so

  203. distracted with the world so distracted by by money by the

  204. pleasures of this world, OK, by the demands of this world.

  205. OK, but I want to tell you, the Bible says you have to, you have

  206. to quiet your heart, listen to the voice of God.

  207. And then when you are, when you are ready to listen, I do

  208. believe that with that readiness, you will recognize

  209. the nudges of the Spirit, the still small voice of the Holy

  210. Spirit. And then when you hear the

  211. nudge, when you, when you recognize the, the guide, the

  212. guidance of the Holy Spirit, then you have to submit your

  213. plans for God's direction. You have to submit everything

  214. unto the Lord. OK, Lord, I'm submitting my life

  215. to you. Direct me be the driver of my

  216. life. Take the will.

  217. Can you say to God, Lord, take the will.

  218. I am no longer in control, but Lord, I am allowing you to take

  219. control over my life, Amen. And then when, when you

  220. recognize that, when you submit your heart to the Lord, it's so

  221. easy to say yes, yes to God, we can easily say yes, Lord, yes,

  222. Lord, I will serve you. I will follow you all the days

  223. of my life, Amen. God is not looking for the most

  224. talented. I tell you, God is not looking

  225. for the most talented, for the most clever.

  226. He's not looking for the most handsome or beautiful people in

  227. the world. Amen.

  228. He's not. He's not looking for skillful

  229. people. He's looking for people that are

  230. most surrendered. If your will are surrendered

  231. unto the Lord, then God is looking for you.

  232. When you are available, you, when you make yourself available

  233. for God to use, I want to tell you that is the qualification

  234. that God is looking for people whom He wants to send.

  235. When you are available, when you are not entangled with the

  236. world. Amen.

  237. So listen to the voice of God. I want I want to encourage you

  238. from this day on that when you pray, do not be in a rush.

  239. Amen. Spend quality time with God.

  240. A lot of people are wasting a lot of time watching movies,

  241. scrolling a lot of things on on social media.

  242. A lot of people are watching Reels unlimited.

  243. But when it comes to praying, when it comes to spending

  244. quality time with God, we are so limited.

  245. Can you imagine? Sometimes we we spend so much

  246. time watching movies for hours. I think Pinnacle movie is one

  247. hour, OK, but there are Movies Now three hours, four hours,

  248. manga series, the camera, the camera addicts, Nobelas

  249. whatsoever. Now you are wasting so much time

  250. watching all those movies series.

  251. But when it comes to prayer, not the Lika filmi, we have to

  252. change that. I want to tell you your

  253. priority, OK, Your priority. If if you prioritize God, that

  254. means a lot. It means God is your priority.

  255. Pero Cong you prioritize other things.

  256. You are simply saying to God, you are not my priority God,

  257. Sometimes we easily say Lord, you are my priority.

  258. You, you are #1 Nakanta Taganina ikawang una at Huling Pagi Bigo

  259. Sunday Lana puts on Monday to Saturday time mug scrolls auto

  260. on social media and doing a lot of things.

  261. There are a lot of people like even Sunday before they come to

  262. church. They send me a close set before

  263. they come to church. Like 1000.

  266. Pyramid comes to prayer like pyramid.

  267. Delita Magdali. Amen.

  268. OK #2 step out in faith even when you feel unqualified.

  269. Do you think you are unqualified?

  270. OK. Mugabe microscope or her

  271. magnifying glass. But I want to tell you, calling

  272. becomes real when you move. I do believe that, as we can

  273. see. I've mentioned Moses earlier,

  274. Moses when he, when he heard the voice of God, the call of God in

  275. his life. Lord, I cannot speak fluently.

  276. I'm not a good speaker, Lord. I'm not an eloquent speaker,

  277. Lord, not Nakamustoria starter like a starter akong akong de la

  278. comustoria, Lord, I'm not worthy.

  279. OK, stories, Exodus chapter 4, verse 10.

    Exodus 4:10

  280. OK Anasha, where Jesus, where sorry, where Moses tells God?

  281. And so please, Lord, I have never been eloquent, neither in

  282. the past nor since you have spoken to your servant, but I am

  283. slow of speech and slow of tongue.

  284. He is expressing his unworthiness and inability to

  285. speak well for the task of leading the Israelite people out

  286. of Egypt. He's using it as an alibi.

  287. Jeremiah, Jeremiah when he was called by God in Jeremiah

  288. chapter one verse six to seven in the other day.

  289. And so I am too young. I am too young, Lord.

  290. So Makita NATO, he's using this as an alibi as well.

  291. See Gideon. See Gideon in Judges chapter 6

    Judges 6 chapter mention

  292. six verse 15. OK, I am the least.

  293. I'm not worthy of this calling, Lord.

  294. I am the least of my family, OK? He was expressing deep self

  295. doubt and humility, telling the Lord that his family was the

  296. weakest in Manasseh and he was the least important in his

  297. household, questioning how could I possibly rescue Israelites

  298. from the Midianites from from our enemies?

  299. Lord, I am weak, but God is saying you are weak, but I am

  300. strong. Hey man, Peter, Peter after

  301. after he ran away from God during the crucifixion.

  302. OK, when God, when Jesus Christ made this, created this

  303. miraculous catch of peace fish, sorry, peace.

  304. No man, fish. OK, now don't I catch a fish?

  305. Some other fishermen gonna run away during the crucifixion,

  306. Jesus went there. It was a lake.

  307. And then you only Jesus Christ. Some other fishermen Nana boy

  308. Maha catch Nana boy na Quan is that.

  309. And then they said Hola pagino. And then he said, OK, drop your

  310. Nets here. And then later on they they

  311. catch a lot of fish. And then later on Peter went to

  312. Jesus Christ and said and bowed down his knees, OK, and said,

  313. depart from me for I am a sinful man, Lord, I am sinful, OK.

  314. And so he's saying that Lord, I'm not qualified.

  315. I am not qualified. But I want to tell you, God

  316. never calls the qualified. He qualified.

  317. He qualifies those who? Those who answer the call of

  318. God, maybe you look yourself unworthy, but I want to tell you

  319. in his in his power, by by his power, God can can do miracles.

  320. God can use you and perform science and wonders because of

  321. the power of God that is living in you.

  322. Amen. He qualifies those whom He

  323. called, Amen. So your calling is not activated

  324. when you feel ready, but when you want to take your first

  325. step. Amen.

  326. Sometimes, but you're not Lord Dilipako Reddy Karan, I'm not

  327. ready. But God is looking for a heart

  328. that is willing to take the first step of faith.

  329. Amen. Are you willing to take that

  330. step of faith? When you are willing to have

  331. that step of faith, I want to tell you God can use you.

  332. Even though maybe right now the only verse that you know is

  333. Gentry 16, I want to tell you God can still use you as an

  334. evangelist. A lot of people needs to hear

  335. that the word that that the Bible verse for them to know

  336. that they are being loved by God, Amen.

  337. There are a lot of people that are killing themselves.

  338. They are depressed because they thought nobody loves them.

  339. And then if you are, if you are a believer of the Lord Jesus

  340. Christ, and that's the only verse that you know, I want to

  341. tell you, you can just be out there and preach for God to love

  342. the world that he gave his only begotten Son.

  343. And people will feel the love of God because of that verse that

  344. you have. So in other words, Mark Izonan,

  345. if that's the only verse that you have right now, that doesn't

  346. disqualify you to be an evangelist.

  347. You can still be used by God even with that verse alone.

  348. You just have to be willing to to take a step of faith.

  349. Amen. So faith activates steps when

  350. you're willing. OK, So you have to start from

  351. where you are. So and start from where you are.

  352. Hey man and use what you have. Everybody say use what you have.

  353. So if the only verse that you have is Gentry 16, use that.

  354. Use that to preach the gospel to people.

  355. But of course you should desire to have more.

  356. But again, you don't need to memorize a lot of scripture

  357. before you will say that you are qualified to be used by God.

  358. Amen, Hallelujah. And then trust God with with

  359. what you lack. Trust God with what you lack.

  360. So I'll say kulang, Lord Igone bahala, Lord Basako willing to

  361. Mubarak, willing to mutindo willing to magwali.

  362. That's the only thing I, I want to do now, you know, do we have

  363. that kind of mindset right here? We need to develop that mindset.

  364. The Lord Diliko Anayaan Lord, the Lord.

  365. And that is that is what God is looking for you.

  366. That is God. That is what God is looking for

  367. his believers. Now the willingness to be used

  368. by God, even though you feel like disqualified, may be

  369. unqualified, even though you feel like Lord Iliquan, but I

  370. want to tell you willing Lanka, see Lord Nambahala Nemo Emo,

  371. Amen. OK.

  372. And then as I walk, even if the path isn't clear, if I sometimes

  373. organized, but I want to tell you, I want to tell you that the

  374. the moment, the moment Nikita walk on the Lord, even though

  375. sometimes Dilipasha even Anaka clear, but you are willing to

  376. have the step of faith, OK God will little by little reveal the

  377. details of the car. Most of the time you will not

  378. see the details right away, because sometimes my plate

  379. trabajo OK. Job description, What is

  380. expected of me and then you know what is expected of you most of

  381. the time. Bye, bye.

  382. Sorry. OK, but I want to tell you when

  383. God calls you most of the time daily clear antenna pero as you

  384. have that step, little by little God will give you details.

  385. You will see clearly the the mighty hand of God working in

  386. your life little by little as you go on with your step of

  387. faith until it is finished. Hey man, God is looking for

  388. finishers. There are a lot of people that

  389. they are good starters but not good finishers because sometimes

  390. we are so without, without so much with what God is doing.

  391. But I want to tell you, just go on, just move forward.

  392. You will see the hand of God, the mighty hand of God, do

  393. miracles, signs and wonders in your life.

  394. Just go on. Oh my God, Hallelujah.

  395. If you're single, If you're single and then you're

  396. questioning your Lord, but I want to tell you, when you want

  397. to get married, just serve the Lord faithfully and God will

  398. give that person to you. God will give your spouse.

  399. Just serve God faithfully. Amen, Sophia.

  400. Amen Gracie, Amen Rose. See Rose wants to go to India

  401. and paramangita dosa of partner little Indian, Filipino gapon

  402. NASA India. Hallelujah, Hallelujah.

  403. Just serve the loan when it is cloudy, it is unclear.

  404. Just pursue serving the Lord. It will become clear clearer as

  405. as long as Nagapadayan Casagino, the more you are close to the

  406. will of God, it will become clearer.

  407. Amen. Like like for example, Buddha,

  408. tobacco, nai, fags, all that is near you is clear.

  409. That's the same thing. When you just move forward to
