As we go. 8 00:02:45,390 --> 00:02:49,590 To the tune of the Lord, we are going to read from the book of 9 00:02:49,590 --> 00:02:56,190 Psalm 95 verse 6. Psalm 95, verse 6. 10 00:02:59,710 --> 00:03:03,990 Please kindly project it for me. Psalm 95, verse 6. 11 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,280 Come, let us come, let us bow down in worship. 12 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,120 Let us kneel before the Lord our God. 13 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:29,960 Hallelujah, This very moment we are going to exhort our Creator. 14 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:35,280 We are going to leave the name of the Lord, the God who created 15 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:41,520 you and I, the God that prepares a table before you and I. 16 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,720 He deserves all our praise.

Praise the Lord, I said, Praise 66 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,320 the Lord, Hallelujah, Hallelujah. 67 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,120 This morning, if you are here, I want you to be grateful unto the 68 00:22:17,120 --> 00:22:19,760 Lord. So I would say, praise the Lord 69 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,400 and you keep your mouth shut. It means you are ungrateful unto 70 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,120 the Lord. But if the Lord has made it 71 00:22:26,120 --> 00:22:30,320 possible for you to be among the living this morning, you have 72 00:22:30,360 --> 00:22:35,440 every cause to praise the Lord. Hallelujah and you have to 73 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:39,600 praise the Lord with all your parts, including your mouth. 74 00:22:40,360 --> 00:22:45,160 So I always say praise the Lord if I were you are weaving jump 75 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:51,480 and say Hallelujah, praise the Lord and that is one of the 76 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:55,280 means we show our gratitude on to the Lord. 77 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,520 Amen. Amen. 78 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:05,840 This morning I prepared a message entitled Your Mandates, 79 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,400 Your Mandates. But as soon as I enter this 80 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:18,400 auditorium in the Holy Spirit, give me a new message to preach. 81 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,120 But one thing I want you to understand this morning is that 82 00:23:24,120 --> 00:23:27,920 if you are here, you have been saved. 83 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,640 You have been purchased by the blood of Jesus Christ. 84 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:36,520 It is for a purpose. The Bible says no one can come 85 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:41,640 unto him until he calls you. So whenever the Lord calls you, 86 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,800 the Lord has a reason why he calls you. 87 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:51,360 The reason why God called me is to give me eternal life. 88 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:56,560 The reason why God called you is to give you eternal life, but 89 00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:01,360 apart from the eternal life that God wants to give unto us, each 90 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:06,280 person that God calls, He gives him or her a mandate. 91 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:11,680 And it is very important as a child of God to know your 92 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:16,160 mandates. When God called you, what 93 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:19,680 mandates did He give to you this morning? 94 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:25,360 If you don't know your mandates, I pray in the name of Jesus that 95 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:29,680 you will ask of Him and He will show you your mandates. 96 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,680 Praise the Lord, I said praise the Lord. 97 00:24:35,360 --> 00:24:37,840 When I say praise the Lord and don't respond, I'll come there. 98 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,680 I'm preaching with you and that is what shows that you are 99 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:47,200 following what I'm saying. I remember very well when this 100 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:52,760 English assembly was created and then I was chosen to be the 101 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:57,640 presiding elder of a truth. I was interested and I did not 102 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:02,280 want to become a leader because of one or two reasons. 103 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:10,720 But somewhere, somehow, God spoke to me and God gave me a 104 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,240 mandate. God told me the reason why I 105 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:16,520 should be the presiding order. And some of the things that the 106 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:18,520 Lord told me I've already shared with you. 107 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:24,440 So as I stand here and as I'm in this local assembly, I know my 108 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,360 mandates, Praise the Lord. So what? 109 00:25:27,360 --> 00:25:30,760 It means that whatever assignment God gives unto you, 110 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:35,320 including the reason why God has called you there, should be a 111 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,440 mandate. And when you know the mandate, 112 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,160 you need to be focused. And when you are focused, 113 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:45,560 nothing can distract you. Amen. 114 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:50,280 Amen. This morning I want to speak to 115 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:56,840 the topic the Church of God, The Church of God, the Church of 116 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,880 God. When we talk about the Church of 117 00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:05,520 God, we are talking about the extension of God's Kingdom on 118 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,520 the earth. The church represents the 119 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:13,200 Kingdom of God on earth. So whenever we talk about the 120 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,840 Church of God, we are talking about the Kingdom of God. 121 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:21,480 Hello. So I all you sit there, I 122 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:25,320 standing here representing the Church of God, we coming 123 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,640 together collectively to represent the Church of God. 124 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:33,760 We are the extension of God's Kingdom on this earth. 125 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:38,600 So this one, and I want you to understand that you are not an 126 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,640 ordinary person. So long as it is the Lord who 127 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:46,960 has called you, then you are an extension of God's Kingdom on 128 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,320 this earth. And when we talk about the 129 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:54,160 extension of God's Kingdom on this earth, we are talking about 130 00:26:54,360 --> 00:26:58,680 what an ambassador, praise the Lord. 131 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,240 So this morning, I am not an ordinary person. 132 00:27:03,360 --> 00:27:07,120 You may choose to be an ordinary person, but for me, knowing my 133 00:27:07,120 --> 00:27:10,920 mandate, knowing the fact that it is he who has called me. 134 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,800 And if you also know that it is he who has called you, that is 135 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:16,440 1. And I want you to believe within 136 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,840 your hearts. I want you to believe within 137 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,640 your hearts that you are not an ordinary person. 138 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,640 Amen. So I read the book of John, 139 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:30,280 chapter 3, verse 16, which says that for God so loved the world 140 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:36,040 that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in 141 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,280 Him will not perish, but have eternal life. 142 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:43,720 What it means is that the purpose for which He has called 143 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:48,240 you, the purpose for which He has called me, the purpose for 144 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:52,440 which He has made me His ambassador, the purpose for 145 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:56,520 which He has made you His ambassador, is to enable you 146 00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:03,720 inherit eternal life. Praise the Lord, whoever, 147 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,440 whoever. So what it means is that He has 148 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:11,560 opened His doors to everybody, people from different 149 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:19,560 background, different society, that whoever believes in him who 150 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:24,280 have an eternal life. So what it means is that it 151 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,120 doesn't matter where you are coming from. 152 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:32,840 Recently, the President of the Republic of Ghana appointed some 153 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:38,280 some people to to to represent him in other countries. 154 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:44,120 And among the many people in Ghana, some few were privileged 155 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,880 to be selected. When we talk about ambassadorial 156 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:51,920 position, it is not easy to be appointed. 157 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:59,920 So if God through the sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ has 158 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:05,320 selected you to be His ambassador, then I want you to 159 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:07,800 know that you are a privileged person. 160 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:13,080 Praise the Lord, I'm saying all these things so that you know 161 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:17,640 who you are at times. We work within the church, we 162 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:22,400 work on this planet earth as if we have no aim, as if we don't 163 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,680 know who we are. But this morning I'm here to 164 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:29,960 challenge someone. I'm here to remind someone of 165 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:35,720 your identity about the fact that you are the Church of God. 166 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,960 Amen. So when Paul was speaking in 167 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:43,640 First Corinthians chapter one verse 18, he said for the 168 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:48,560 message of the cross is foolishness to those who are 169 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:56,400 perishing, the message of the cross is foolishness to those 170 00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:01,200 who are perishing, but to us who are being saved, it is the power 171 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:06,800 of God. How can you tell me that? 172 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:13,000 Because Jesus died on the cross, someone has died so many years 173 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:18,920 ago, about 2000 years plus. How can you tell me that for the 174 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:23,360 fact that you have faith in Him, you believe in Him, and you 175 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:30,520 accept Him, you are saved. How can you understand this with 176 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:35,200 your human mind? And so Paul is saying that this 177 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:39,960 message we are talking about, it is foolishness unto those who 178 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:44,880 are perishing. So what it means is that this 179 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:50,080 message can never be sensible to you if you are perishing, but to 180 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:54,880 those who are saved, it is the power of God. 181 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,240 Amen. Amen. 182 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:04,440 This morning it is my prayer that you believe in the message 183 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:08,960 of the cross and that I will believe in the message of cross. 184 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,120 And as you believe and I believe, the Bible is saying 185 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:18,280 that this message is the power of God unto us. 186 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,120 Amen. Amen. 187 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,320 You could see that the main reason why Jesus came unto this 188 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:30,640 earth is to come and save mankind from his sin and 189 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:35,280 reconcile man back unto God. And so when you read scripture, 190 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,680 the Bible is saying that when Jesus came, he called men unto 191 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,080 himself, He called his disciples. 192 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,760 And you could see that the disciples that Jesus called unto 193 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:50,720 himself, they came from different backgrounds, showing 194 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:56,280 that Jesus is interested in all people from different 195 00:31:56,280 --> 00:32:01,680 backgrounds, from different race, from different what? 196 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:08,840 From different, different. Whatever you can mention, Amen. 197 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:12,520 There are some of us. Should we consider where we are 198 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:16,840 coming from? It is not even, it cannot be 199 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:23,040 located on the map of Ghana. Should we consider the kind of 200 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:30,160 family we are coming from? We are far from the gospel 201 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,440 message. We are not qualified to be 202 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,960 called children of God. Should we consider where we are 203 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:42,520 coming from? But God has interest in us. 204 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:50,920 God has interest in us. So you could see that after 205 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:57,520 Jesus has brought his assignment on this edge to a completion and 206 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:04,640 Bible is saying that he was killed and then he asked the 207 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:09,600 disciples to go and wait. And the disciples waited and 208 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,680 they received the promise which is the Holy Spirit. 209 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:18,360 The Bible is saying that that is way and how the church was 210 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,920 birthed. Amen. 211 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:25,640 Why the church? Why the church? 212 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:30,000 The church was birthed to represent the Kingdom of God on 213 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:34,320 this earth. The church was birth to promote 214 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:39,920 the agenda of Jesus Christ. The church was birthed to 215 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,960 represent Jesus Christ on this earth. 216 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,920 And so you could see that when the church was birthed, the 217 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:51,920 Bible is saying that the apostles taught the people who 218 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:56,200 came to the saving knowledge of Christ and day in, day out the 219 00:33:56,200 --> 00:34:00,640 church, and I want you continue reading Bible is saying that as 220 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:05,200 a result of the kind of life these people lived, the 221 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:08,840 weatherly people named them Christians, which means 222 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:13,199 followers of Christ, Amen. So the weatherly people 223 00:34:13,199 --> 00:34:20,560 recognize them as living same life, being an example of Jesus 224 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:24,920 Christ. Amen. 225 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:29,400 So when we talk about the church, we are talking about the 226 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,560 Kingdom of God. Jesus is gone. 227 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,520 Jesus is in heaven. The Bible is saying that he's 228 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,679 gone to the Father. But the church represent the 229 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:42,520 Kingdom of God on this earth. And So what it means is that 230 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:48,080 Jesus has his people, Jesus has his, his men and women on this 231 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:52,960 earth who are representing him. Hello. 232 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:58,160 So Jesus is expecting that I be in His church, you be in His 233 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:02,120 church. I will be His representative. 234 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:07,400 You be His representative. Jesus is looking up unto you. 235 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,000 Jesus is looking up unto me. Why? 236 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:12,880 Because He has saved me. Why? 237 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:17,880 Because He has delivered me from the Kingdom of darkness, and He 238 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,800 has brought us into the Kingdom of His light. 239 00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,760 Amen. But let's just take note of 240 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:30,160 this. As I already said, the church is 241 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:36,120 the Kingdom of God, and the Kingdom of God is open to all 242 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:40,640 kinds of people, all kinds of people from different 243 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:45,400 backgrounds. If I should give all of us the 244 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:51,000 opportunity to say or to testify how we came to the serving 245 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,720 knowledge of Christ, we all have different stories to tell. 246 00:35:55,920 --> 00:36:00,720 Someone would say my grandmother was sick and she accepted the 247 00:36:00,720 --> 00:36:05,480 Lord Jesus Christ, or she she was miraculously healed and she 248 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,920 accepted the Lord Jesus Christ. And as a result of that, all her 249 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:12,480 children were saved. And the children, the children's 250 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:17,360 children are saved. Everybody has a story. 251 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:23,840 My whatever your story, my story may be, I want you to understand 252 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,760 this morning that when we talk about the Church of God, the 253 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:32,960 Church of God is the community of God which has embraced all 254 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:38,760 kinds of people. When we talk about all kinds of 255 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:41,800 people, we are talking about good people. 256 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:47,520 When we talk about all kinds of people, we are talking about bad 257 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:51,080 people. When we talk about all kinds of 258 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,920 people, we are talking about evil people. 259 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:59,920 And to give you a typical example, our Lord himself, when 260 00:36:59,920 --> 00:37:03,680 he was doing ministry and he called the disciples unto 261 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:07,440 himself, there was one, There was one who was evil. 262 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:15,640 Praise the Lord. Did Jesus not know that Judas 263 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:22,160 will betray him? You could see that Jesus did 264 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:29,720 ministry with all of them. And so this morning I want you 265 00:37:29,720 --> 00:37:33,720 to understand that as we belong to the Church of God, as we have 266 00:37:33,720 --> 00:37:36,720 been called into the Kingdom of God, we are all from different 267 00:37:36,720 --> 00:37:40,000 backgrounds. And I also want you to 268 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:43,080 understand that in the church we have good people. 269 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:46,760 And I also want you to understand that in the church we 270 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:49,560 have bad people. And I also want you to 271 00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:52,160 understand that in the church we have evil people. 272 00:37:57,570 --> 00:38:04,650 Someone say knowledge is power. Until you know this, you don't 273 00:38:04,650 --> 00:38:09,050 know how to live in a church. Praise the Lord. 274 00:38:13,530 --> 00:38:18,010 And you see, it is God himself who calls all of these people. 275 00:38:19,490 --> 00:38:22,080 It is God himself who called Judas. 276 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:26,320 You think if Jesus had not called Judas, Judas could have 277 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:32,160 worked with Jesus to the point that he had an appointment, to 278 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,840 the point that he had an appointment. 279 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:45,320 Hello. So one of the things I've come 280 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:52,280 to realize is that when we talk about the Church of God, which 281 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:57,880 is the extension of God's Kingdom on this earth, I've also 282 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:02,240 come to realize that the church is like a hospital. 283 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:10,320 The hospital is there for everyone. 284 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:17,360 When you come in, you'll be treated. 285 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:23,680 When you come in, you'll be prescribed medication. 286 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:26,720 What? The medication is prescribed for 287 00:39:26,720 --> 00:39:30,480 you? You can choose to take the 288 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:34,240 medication. You can choose to throw the 289 00:39:34,240 --> 00:39:38,640 medication somewhere. Praise the Lord. 290 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:44,840 But the fact that you failed to take your medication doesn't 291 00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:49,240 change the hospital. The hospital remains the 292 00:39:49,240 --> 00:40:06,640 hospital. We who have the privilege to be 293 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:12,560 called as leaders of God's church, I'm saying we who have 294 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:18,040 the privilege to become leaders of God's church, The reason why 295 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:21,320 I'm saying this is because it is a privilege. 296 00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:28,920 Now we need not to take for granted God is looking up on to 297 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:38,560 us that we will prescribe the unadulterated word of God unto 298 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:46,600 His people and the keyword here is the unadulterated word of 299 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:52,000 God. When we prescribe the 300 00:40:52,160 --> 00:41:01,040 unadulterated Word of God, we are delivering our mandates and 301 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:04,520 those of you who have the privilege and the opportunity to 302 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:08,600 listen to the leaders of God, God is expecting that. 303 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:16,920 As we prescribe, as we teach, as we preach the unadulterated Word 304 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:22,800 of God, God is expecting that you will take it. 305 00:41:26,240 --> 00:41:30,480 Failure to take it. We have done our part. 306 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:47,410 Hello, God is expecting that we will pray in this church. 307 00:41:53,500 --> 00:41:57,060 So that church being the hospital, we are supposed to 308 00:41:57,060 --> 00:42:02,540 preach the word of God. We are supposed to pray and we 309 00:42:02,540 --> 00:42:05,780 are supposed to receive the failing of the Holy Ghost. 310 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:11,440 So these are the kind of medication we are supposed to 311 00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:14,960 receive from the Church. And when we are receiving this 312 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:19,720 medication and we take our treatment seriously, then what 313 00:42:19,720 --> 00:42:24,080 it means is that we are fulfilling the mandates of the 314 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:27,960 Church. Failure to do that, we are not 315 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,600 fulfilling the mandates. Amen. 316 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:39,120 And you see, and as we preach the unadulterated Word of God, 317 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:43,200 what we are also doing is that we are sowing seeds. 318 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:50,640 As we preach the unadulterated Word of God, we are sowing seed. 319 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:54,520 That is the only thing we can do. 320 00:42:55,560 --> 00:43:00,720 But for the seed to grow, for the seed to germinate, it will 321 00:43:00,720 --> 00:43:03,840 take the Holy Spirit. Amen. 322 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:09,800 And this brings to mind the parable of the sewer. 323 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:15,360 Maybe I'll read briefly. Should I read? 324 00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:20,240 OK, I'm reading from Matthew chapter 13, verse 1 to 11. 325 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:25,920 That same day, Jesus went out of the house and sat by the leak. 326 00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:31,160 Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into a 327 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:36,240 boot and sat in it while all the people stood on the shore. 328 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:42,520 Then he told them many things in parables, saying a farmer went 329 00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:46,200 out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, 330 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:51,120 some fell along the path and the bears came and ate it up. 331 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:57,000 Some fell on rocky places where it did not have much soil. 332 00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:03,560 It sprung up quickly because the soil was shallow, but when the 333 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:08,840 sun came up, the plants were scorched and they withered 334 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:13,400 because they had no roots. Other seed fell among tongs 335 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,720 which grew up and chopped the plants. 336 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:27,400 So other seed fell on good sale, where it produced a crop 160 or 337 00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:35,120 30 times what what was sold? Whoever has ears LED them here. 338 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:40,880 The disciples came to him and asked, Why do you speak to the 339 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:45,280 people in parables? He replied, Because the 340 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:50,360 knowledge of the secrets of the Kingdom of heaven has been given 341 00:44:50,360 --> 00:45:00,000 to you, but not to them. Verse 11 He replied, because the 342 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:04,240 knowledge of the secret of the Kingdom of heaven has been given 343 00:45:04,240 --> 00:45:08,880 to you, but not to them, praise the Lord. 344 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,560 So those of us who have their privilege to belong to their 345 00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:18,120 church, what it means is that we are privileged to receive the 346 00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:22,400 secret of the Kingdom, and the secret of the Kingdom is the 347 00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:27,640 word of God. The secret of the Kingdom is the 348 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:31,480 word of God. So what it also means is that as 349 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:36,640 we preach, as we teach the word of God, from the parable that 350 00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:41,160 Jesus said, you could see that Jesus himself who is the all 351 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,480 knowing God, this is a parable, he said. 352 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:47,600 So what it means is that when you are a leader or you are a 353 00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:51,360 child of God and you preach the gospel, you preach the word of 354 00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:55,000 God and it is not yielding the result you are looking for. 355 00:45:55,400 --> 00:46:00,080 Don't worry yourself, keep on keeping because Jesus himself 356 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:04,280 from the parable that he said, he's saying that when the 357 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:08,960 message was preached, some fell on the path soil, some fell on 358 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:13,960 the rocky soil, some fell on the toy Tony soil, and some fell on 359 00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:18,320 the good soil. And all these soils are in the 360 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:21,800 Church of God. Praise the Lord. 361 00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:30,840 But Jesus is saying that for us, for us, for us, because the 362 00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:34,280 knowledge of the secrets of the Kingdom of heaven has been given 363 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:41,080 to you, but not them. Now we talk about the knowledge 364 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:42,960 of the secrets of the Kingdom of heaven. 365 00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:45,000 We are talking about the Word of God. 366 00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:52,840 And so, beloved, I want to stand upon the Word of God and 367 00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:58,520 encourage someone, Do not let the message we preach unto you 368 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:02,280 go wasted. Hello. 369 00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:07,840 In fact, look at her brother and sister and tell him, do not let 370 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:10,440 the message we preach to you go wasted. 371 00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:19,680 You see, when I started, I said the Kingdom of God is the 372 00:47:19,720 --> 00:47:22,200 extension of God's Kingdom on this earth. 373 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:26,520 And when you read scriptures, the Bible, when Jesus was about 374 00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:28,520 to depart, he said he will come back. 375 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:33,360 Jesus will come back. Whether you believe it or not, 376 00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:39,200 Jesus will come back. And that is what should be very 377 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:44,560 interesting to us. When Jesus comes back, what will 378 00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:54,440 be our stand? From one of the scriptures we 379 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:58,040 use for our annual team, Ephesians chapter 5. 380 00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,320 Maybe let me start from verse 21. 381 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:08,360 Ephesians chapter 5, verse 21. Submit to one another out of 382 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:14,160 reverence to Christ for Christ. Wives, submit yourself to your 383 00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:20,280 husbands as you do to the Lord. For the husband is the head of 384 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:27,800 the wife, as Christ is the head of the church, his body of which 385 00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:34,160 he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to 386 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:40,160 Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in 387 00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:43,600 everything. Please shall we read the verse 388 00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:45,680 24 together? Ready go. 389 00:48:56,400 --> 00:49:00,960 Amen. Let me continue, husbands, love 390 00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:06,960 your wives, just as Christ loved the church, and gave Himself up 391 00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:14,040 for her to make her holy cleansing, to make her holy 392 00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:21,720 cleansing her by the washing with water through the wade, and 393 00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:28,320 to present her to himself as a radiant church, without sting or 394 00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:34,400 wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. 395 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:38,720 Amen. So Christ is expecting that as 396 00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:45,200 His Church we shall submit ourselves to Him, because we are 397 00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:50,200 his bride. And then the last portion, maybe 398 00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:53,840 let me repeat it, he said, husbands love your wives, just 399 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:58,640 as Christ loved the church and gave himself for her to make her 400 00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:01,640 holy. So that here Paul is trying to 401 00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:05,560 explain the reason why Christ gave himself is to make the 402 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:08,520 church holy. So if Christ are not giving 403 00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:10,680 himself, the church can never be holy. 404 00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:15,480 So the holiness we are talking about does not come from our 405 00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:19,120 strength, but it comes from the sacrifice of our Lord Jesus 406 00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:24,800 Christ. Praise the Lord, cleansing her 407 00:50:25,240 --> 00:50:28,960 by the washing with water through the weight. 408 00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:36,800 So the Word of God cleanses us. The Word of God purifies us. 409 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:39,920 So what do you belong to the church? 410 00:50:40,240 --> 00:50:43,520 And we preach the word to you, and you refuse to take the 411 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:45,760 weight, and you are in the church. 412 00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:52,640 How can you be cleansed when we preach the Word to you and you 413 00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:56,520 are in the church and you refuse to take the weight? 414 00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:10,590 How can you be washed? And then when he continues and 415 00:51:10,590 --> 00:51:17,470 to present to himself, So you could see that all these things 416 00:51:17,470 --> 00:51:20,870 we are enumerating, we are enumerating is not out of our 417 00:51:20,870 --> 00:51:24,560 own efforts. And we are talking about pure 418 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:29,160 grease and the end of the matter, the end of it all. 419 00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:35,280 His aim is to present her to himself, to present the church 420 00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:39,560 to himself as a radiant church without steam. 421 00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:46,120 So what it means is that when God called you, when God called 422 00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:51,000 me into the church, God knows. God knows that we are full of 423 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:56,280 steam. Hello, God knows that we are 424 00:51:56,280 --> 00:52:00,240 full of steam, but He has brought us into the Kingdom. 425 00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:02,200 He has brought us into the church. 426 00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:04,880 For what? For which purpose? 427 00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:11,880 To wash us, to clean us, and at the end of the day to present us 428 00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:18,440 unto Himself. So this one. 429 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:21,520 And if you are here, I want you to understand that God has 430 00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:25,120 brought you into the church to clean you, to wash you and 431 00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:29,200 present you unto himself. So if you are here and we are 432 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:32,800 preaching the gospel to you all the time, and you are not taking 433 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:36,160 the gospel, we are preaching the gospel unto you all the time. 434 00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:40,640 And you put the gospel somewhere and you live your life as if you 435 00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:42,920 are independent. You owe yourself. 436 00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:47,440 Yes, you are in the church, but that is not the reason why God 437 00:52:47,440 --> 00:53:42,720 brought you into the church. To present her to himself as a 438 00:53:42,720 --> 00:53:50,920 radiant church without stain or wrinkle or any blemish or any 439 00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:54,640 blemish. So what it means is that when 440 00:53:54,840 --> 00:54:00,760 one is called into the church, it is assumed that you have 441 00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:03,600 blemish. When one is called into the 442 00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:09,160 church, it is assumed that you are not holy, you are not real, 443 00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:15,000 but by the invitation or by you, 100 the invitation coming to the 444 00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,960 church, the reason why you are brought into the church and is 445 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:22,320 for you to be transformed, to be transformed. 446 00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:31,480 And then the last part says, But holy and blameless, holy and 447 00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:38,640 blameless, praise the Lord. So this morning the Lord who has 448 00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:41,760 called us, has called us for a purpose. 449 00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:47,920 When you read the book of Revelations, Chapter 9, verse 9, 450 00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:53,840 Revelations 9 verse 9, then the Angel said to me, write this, 451 00:54:54,600 --> 00:55:00,280 blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of 452 00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:06,640 the Lamb, of the Lamb. And he added, these are the true 453 00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:11,000 ways of God. Blessed are those who are 454 00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:15,200 invited to the wedding supper of the lamb. 455 00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:22,800 Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of 456 00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:26,200 the lamb. While we are talking about those 457 00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:31,560 who have been invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb, we 458 00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:36,320 are talking about those who have been saved, who has been washed, 459 00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:40,920 who have been purified, who have been sanctified by the blood of 460 00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:44,320 Jesus. So this morning, if you are here 461 00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:48,520 and you have been saved, the Bible is saying that you are 462 00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:52,040 blessed. The reason why you are blessed 463 00:55:52,040 --> 00:56:00,320 is because you have been invited to the supper of the Lamb. 464 00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:06,120 And then when you read Revelations 22, verse 7, 465 00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:11,640 Revelations 22, seven, look, I am coming soon. 466 00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:19,360 Blessed is the one who keeps the ways of the prophecy written in 467 00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:23,760 the school. Look, I am coming soon. 468 00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:31,760 Blessed is the one who keeps the ways of the prophecy written in 469 00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:36,000 this group. If I want to reverse it or read 470 00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:39,880 it otherwise, look, I am coming soon. 471 00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:48,320 Guess is the one who refuses or who does not keep the ways of 472 00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:51,240 the prophecy. Hello. 473 00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:59,000 So what it means is that any person who keeps the ways of the 474 00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:03,840 prophecy, which stands for the word of God, any person who 475 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:08,400 obeys the word of God, the Bible is saying that that person is 476 00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:13,160 blessed. So what it means is that God is 477 00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:21,080 expressing that the church that is you and I will keep the word 478 00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:25,760 of the prophecy. And when we keep it, the Bible 479 00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:32,440 is saying that we are blessed. So what happens to those who 480 00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:35,400 does not keep the word of the prophecy? 481 00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:47,200 Amen, Amen. And then when you read the book 482 00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:56,240 of Matthew chapter 25 Jesus book another parable there Matthew 483 00:57:56,240 --> 00:58:05,600 chapter 25 verse one down was at that time the Kingdom of heaven 484 00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:14,080 will be like 10 virgins who took their lamps went out to meet the 485 00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:18,920 bridegroom. Do not forget that the church is 486 00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:26,680 liking to the Kingdom of heaven. Do not forget that the church is 487 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:30,000 an extension of God's Kingdom on this earth. 488 00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:34,280 Matthew 25. At that time the Kingdom of 489 00:58:34,280 --> 00:58:40,920 heaven will be like 10 virgins who took the alamps and went out 490 00:58:40,920 --> 00:58:48,840 to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish and 491 00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:54,320 five were wise. The foolish ones took their 492 00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:57,960 lamps but did not take any oil with them. 493 00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:07,640 The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. 494 00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:17,320 The bridegroom was a long time in coming and they all became 495 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:25,720 drowsy and fell asleep. At midnight the cry rang out. 496 00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:30,480 Here is the bridegroom come out to meet him. 497 00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:37,880 Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 498 00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:44,160 The foolish ones said to the wise, give us some of your oil, 499 00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:49,480 our lamps are going out. No, they replied. 500 00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:57,560 There may not be enough for both of us and you instead go to 501 00:59:57,600 --> 01:00:04,120 those who sell oil and busy sorry and buy some for 502 01:00:04,120 --> 01:00:10,840 yourselves. But while they were on their way 503 01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:15,440 to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. 504 01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:24,280 The virgins who were ready went in with him and went in with him 505 01:00:24,280 --> 01:00:28,640 to the wedding banquets, and the door was shut. 506 01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:38,080 Later the artists also came. Lord, Lord, he said, open the 507 01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:42,720 door for us. But he replied, truly, I tell 508 01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:49,000 you, I don't know you, therefore keep watch because you do not 509 01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:53,760 know the day or the hour. Amen. 510 01:00:56,520 --> 01:01:00,280 I will share the rumor I received in this parable with 511 01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:08,840 you. You could see that the Bible 512 01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:14,920 describes 5 of the virgins are foolish and then five as wise. 513 01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:27,200 And the virgins knew. The virgins knew that the 514 01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:29,200 bridegroom was coming. They knew. 515 01:01:30,920 --> 01:01:35,520 The ten of them knew that the bridegroom was coming. 516 01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:42,280 One of the lessons we can learn here is that the ten of them had 517 01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:48,920 the same time to wait. The ten of them were in the same 518 01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:51,640 place. What it means is that the ten of 519 01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:56,160 them had the opportunity to hear whatever they needed to hear as 520 01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:57,840 they were awaiting the bridegroom. 521 01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:04,360 Praise the Lord. And then one of the remor I 522 01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:08,920 received, in fact, let me let me put it this way, somewhere last 523 01:02:08,920 --> 01:02:13,440 week something happened and then I was thinking about the whole 524 01:02:13,440 --> 01:02:15,560 thing. It's happened in the church. 525 01:02:16,160 --> 01:02:19,520 And then I was asking myself a lot of questions. 526 01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:24,360 In fact, I wasn't happy. So when I entered the bathroom 527 01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:30,200 and I was baffing, I was baffing and then I was worried. 528 01:02:30,200 --> 01:02:33,280 And then I was asking a lot of questions within my mind. 529 01:02:33,960 --> 01:02:40,320 And then I heard a voice telling me, Masa, have you taken your 530 01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:49,240 medication this morning? I asked myself, what medication? 531 01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:54,000 And then he said, well, read your Bible and pray. 532 01:02:55,360 --> 01:02:59,000 If you take your medication, you do not be worried about these 533 01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:05,440 days, praise the Lord. And the understanding I got from 534 01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:09,960 this is that as people of God, as children of God, if we should 535 01:03:09,960 --> 01:03:14,120 take, do not forget that I have already said that the church is 536 01:03:14,120 --> 01:03:17,200 like a hospital. It doesn't matter. 537 01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:22,040 You can be a leader or whatever you we are all in the hospital. 538 01:03:22,760 --> 01:03:30,120 God is working on us day in day out through the word hello. 539 01:03:31,240 --> 01:03:40,640 And so the explanation I receive is that should I pray and so. 540 01:03:42,760 --> 01:03:52,440 I. Forgot all those worries. 541 01:03:53,040 --> 01:03:59,640 I cannot do anything about it. All those worries, you cannot do 542 01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:02,920 anything about it. The only person who can do 543 01:04:02,920 --> 01:04:07,080 something about it is the owner of the church. 544 01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:11,440 Praise the Lord. And then it went further. 545 01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:16,640 And you see the reason why I was worried about, you know, I have 546 01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:21,400 mentioned here that one time God told me, I will reveal 547 01:04:21,400 --> 01:04:23,640 everything to you. I will show you everything 548 01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:26,320 within the church but do not utter a word. 549 01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:31,360 So at times when I see some of the things I want to talk, I 550 01:04:31,360 --> 01:04:37,360 want to speak, but I will be instructed do not talk and you 551 01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:45,000 won't say I'm a human being. I want to talk and the 552 01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:50,560 instruction is do not talk. So one that didn't happen like 553 01:04:50,560 --> 01:04:53,240 that, the reason why I was worried is because I want to 554 01:04:53,240 --> 01:04:59,280 talk. Is it the only way to control 555 01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:01,960 me? The only way to control the 556 01:05:02,040 --> 01:05:06,120 believer to do the will of God is to read your Bible and pray, 557 01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:12,840 praise the Lord. And so after I did that, I 558 01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:16,360 realized that I became relieved and then I got another 559 01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:18,680 explanation. The other explanation that came 560 01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:23,160 is that the reason why someone will belong to the Church of God 561 01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:29,480 and be worried. Be worried idea how is because 562 01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:34,080 you don't take your medication. If you take your medication, if 563 01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:38,920 you take the word of God and if you pray, you have the inner 564 01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:43,720 conviction that God is in control. 565 01:05:44,880 --> 01:05:49,440 You have the inner conviction that God rules. 566 01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:52,880 So when you have this inner conviction, when you come to the 567 01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:57,280 presence of God, you dance and you do everything as if nothing 568 01:05:57,280 --> 01:06:03,240 happens because He is in charge. My work, your work is to come 569 01:06:03,760 --> 01:06:06,400 and worship Him. Praise the Lord. 570 01:06:15,880 --> 01:06:22,760 Because he lives. Oh yeah, he's gone. 571 01:06:44,880 --> 01:06:51,680 So let me announce here that if we are in the Church of open the 572 01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:56,400 door for us. But he replied, Truly, I tell 573 01:06:56,400 --> 01:07:01,640 you, I don't know you, brethren, don't waste your time in the 574 01:07:01,640 --> 01:07:07,680 church. What will be the essence of you 575 01:07:07,680 --> 01:07:12,360 coming to church? Coming to church on Sundays and 576 01:07:12,360 --> 01:07:17,160 at the end of the day, you will not inherit, you will not go to 577 01:07:17,160 --> 01:07:19,600 heaven. What will be the essence of it? 578 01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:25,120 You would have wasted your time, just like the foolish virgins 579 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:30,560 wasted their time. They called him all right, Lord. 580 01:07:31,120 --> 01:07:34,320 Yes, he is Lord. They called him. 581 01:07:34,760 --> 01:07:37,080 What it means is that they knew they knew him. 582 01:07:37,680 --> 01:07:40,600 They knew him. They know that his name is the 583 01:07:40,600 --> 01:07:43,000 Lord. They know that he is the Lord. 584 01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:46,960 So you may be in the church. You may know the Lord all right. 585 01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:05,320 Therefore, keep watch because you do not know the day or the 586 01:08:05,400 --> 01:08:07,120 hour. Amen. 587 01:08:07,880 --> 01:08:11,880 Maybe the last scripture I will mention I will not read John 588 01:08:11,880 --> 01:08:17,880 chapter 13 verse one to five. John chapter 13 verse one to 589 01:08:17,920 --> 01:08:23,319 five. You could see that when Jesus 590 01:08:23,920 --> 01:08:27,439 came to do ministry on earth and then he was bringing his 591 01:08:27,439 --> 01:08:32,080 assignment on earth to an end and he was preparing to go and 592 01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:37,319 dine with his disciples. The Bible is saying that from 593 01:08:37,319 --> 01:08:40,279 the Scripture, if you go home you read, but he talks about 594 01:08:40,359 --> 01:08:44,800 Jesus washing the feet of his disciples. 595 01:08:46,319 --> 01:08:50,960 And then Jesus instructed that we should do this in remembrance 596 01:08:50,960 --> 01:08:53,600 of him. That is the church, that the 597 01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:56,640 church all the time we shall dine. 598 01:08:57,040 --> 01:09:00,240 And so when we are dining, when we are taking the Lord Supper, 599 01:09:00,520 --> 01:09:03,319 we are taking the body of Christ and the blood of Christ. 600 01:09:03,560 --> 01:09:06,240 We are doing it in remembrance of him. 601 01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:10,520 But what I want us to learn here this morning is that you could 602 01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:14,520 see that before the Lord Supper or before they, they went to the 603 01:09:14,520 --> 01:09:17,319 table. Jesus who was the master, He 604 01:09:17,319 --> 01:09:20,840 went so long and then he washed the disciples feet. 605 01:09:25,279 --> 01:09:28,399 He went so long and then he washed the disciples. 606 01:09:28,960 --> 01:09:33,040 What can we learn here? Jesus was trying to portray to 607 01:09:33,040 --> 01:09:37,040 the disciples that before you come to my table, you need to 608 01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:41,439 humble yourself. Before you come to the table, 609 01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:47,840 you need to cleanse yourself. Before you come to my table, you 610 01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:53,040 need to purify yourself. We cleanse ourselves as I've 611 01:09:53,040 --> 01:09:55,400 mentioned already with the word of God. 612 01:09:56,840 --> 01:10:07,060 We come with all humility. We come to the table with a 613 01:10:07,060 --> 01:10:11,060 loving hearts. Hello. 614 01:10:11,660 --> 01:10:14,780 You can remember that when Jesus says he washed the disciples 615 01:10:14,780 --> 01:10:20,100 feet, Peter said no Lord Peter resisted by the long run, he 616 01:10:20,100 --> 01:10:23,260 gave up. And that is what at times some 617 01:10:23,260 --> 01:10:30,680 of us does as the one you read First Corinthians 11/23 618 01:10:30,680 --> 01:10:34,120 downwards which says that many of you are dead and sick. 619 01:10:35,520 --> 01:10:38,520 It's because of the way and the manner in which we come to the 620 01:10:38,520 --> 01:10:43,640 lost table. Some of us, we come to the lost 621 01:10:43,640 --> 01:10:47,440 table unprepared. The reason why one week is set 622 01:10:47,440 --> 01:10:49,360 aside is because it is scriptural. 623 01:10:49,600 --> 01:10:53,720 The Bible says that we have to come to the the lost table well 624 01:10:53,720 --> 01:10:55,440 prepared. How do we prepare ourselves? 625 01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:57,760 We prepare ourselves through prayer. 626 01:10:57,960 --> 01:11:00,280 We prepare ourselves through the word of God. 627 01:11:00,920 --> 01:11:05,040 And so when we declare one week lost supper week, what we do as 628 01:11:05,040 --> 01:11:08,560 a church is that we are praying, we are committing ourselves into 629 01:11:08,560 --> 01:11:11,440 the hands of the Lord. We are we are washing ourselves 630 01:11:11,440 --> 01:11:14,160 with the blood of Jesus through the Word. 631 01:11:15,040 --> 01:11:18,240 And so before when you're able to do all these things and you 632 01:11:18,240 --> 01:11:23,840 come and you take the law supper and to have effect on you and 633 01:11:23,840 --> 01:11:28,120 those who do that, I can say they belong to the wise group. 634 01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:32,280 Hello. But those who belong to the 635 01:11:32,320 --> 01:11:36,480 foolish group, they don't prepare in any way, yet they 636 01:11:36,480 --> 01:11:46,760 will come. May the Lord have mercy this 637 01:11:46,760 --> 01:11:48,200 morning. Which group do you belong to? 638 01:11:52,080 --> 01:11:55,920 When I read scripture, Bible says some time ago King David 639 01:11:55,920 --> 01:12:01,640 took someone's wife and then God sent his prophet to go and 640 01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:06,320 admonish him. And the Bible says that when the 641 01:12:06,360 --> 01:12:10,440 prophet went, he spoke to the king in parable, and the king 642 01:12:10,440 --> 01:12:14,240 did not know that he was the one the prophet was talking about. 643 01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:18,520 So when the king had brought out his comments, and then the 644 01:12:18,520 --> 01:12:22,600 prophet said, you are the one I'm talking about this morning 645 01:12:23,480 --> 01:12:28,600 as the word of God has come unto you, as the word of God has come 646 01:12:28,600 --> 01:12:30,680 unto you. And one thing I want you to 647 01:12:30,680 --> 01:12:35,520 understand this morning is that the way I preach, the way I 648 01:12:35,520 --> 01:12:39,320 speak is part of my mandates. Hello. 649 01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:46,000 It is part of my mandates. Yeah, that I was asking, Lord, 650 01:12:46,160 --> 01:12:49,360 why you told me. I have big men and big women in 651 01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:52,280 my church. I have a friend and say 652 01:12:52,600 --> 01:12:55,560 politicians. I have business tycoons. 653 01:12:55,920 --> 01:12:58,360 Where are they? And he said, Oh my, no. 654 01:12:58,360 --> 01:13:02,120 What do you want? You just pick the weight this 655 01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:05,560 morning. What I received from the Lord is 656 01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:08,560 what I have delivered unto you. Amen. 657 01:13:10,160 --> 01:13:18,840 Shall we be on our feet? Just by die your head and 658 01:13:18,840 --> 01:13:22,000 contemplates on the word of God you have had this morning? 659 01:13:31,580 --> 01:13:34,700 Just by die your head and contemplates on the word of God 660 01:13:34,700 --> 01:13:44,080 you have had. Father, let me call thee. 661 01:13:44,600 --> 01:13:50,760 Father is your child. Return to thee. 662 01:13:51,600 --> 01:14:05,520 Lord of mercy and compassion, look with thee upon me. 663 01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:13,400 Father, let me call thee. Father, here's your child, 664 01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:19,320 return to thee. Jesus. 665 01:14:19,320 --> 01:14:30,960 Lord, I must go. Mercy, let me know ye blow ye 666 01:14:34,800 --> 01:14:48,400 all my sins. I now never will I seen again 667 01:14:48,960 --> 01:15:05,400 Jesus Lord I am for mercy. Let me know Him blowing me all 668 01:15:05,400 --> 01:15:20,760 my sins. We are. 669 01:15:20,760 --> 01:15:24,200 Praying, thanking the Lord for the mercy that He has given unto 670 01:15:24,200 --> 01:15:25,560 us. I want you to. 671 01:15:25,600 --> 01:15:28,680 Open your mouth and thank the Lord for the revelation that He 672 01:15:28,680 --> 01:15:30,440 has revealed unto us this morning. 673 01:15:30,840 --> 01:15:34,560 Thank the Lord for the machines. Father, we thank you for the 674 01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:38,520 revelation that you refer unto your church, Lord, that the 675 01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:42,200 Church of God, what we are supposed to do, the rule that we 676 01:15:42,200 --> 01:15:46,080 are supposed to belong. Father, we thank you, Lord, for 677 01:15:46,080 --> 01:15:48,160 the message that you have given unto us. 678 01:15:48,640 --> 01:15:50,880 Bless you Lord, we bless you, Lord. 679 01:15:51,520 --> 01:15:55,280 What you've done for the masses that you have given on to us 680 01:15:55,280 --> 01:16:00,720 this morning, we take you, Lord, the Father called us to know the 681 01:16:00,720 --> 01:16:03,600 way that we are working.

We thank you, Lord. 686 01:16:26,440 --> 01:16:28,480 People of God. This morning. 687 01:16:28,520 --> 01:16:32,200 The Lord is in our mess and the Lord has been said. 688 01:16:32,520 --> 01:16:35,720 You'll be thinking that it is presiding that has said what 689 01:16:35,720 --> 01:16:38,880 he's supposed to say, but I believe that it is the law that 690 01:16:38,880 --> 01:16:42,480 is speaking to Him. And you want us to change 691 01:16:42,480 --> 01:16:45,520 certain things in our lives. This morning I want you to 692 01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:49,080 surrender unto the Lord. He talk about the two groups, 693 01:16:49,320 --> 01:16:52,560 whether you are for the wise or for you are for the foolish 694 01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:54,400 group. And this morning I want you to 695 01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:57,440 surrender unto the Lord that a father have come to you. 696 01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:01,600 If I belong to the foolish group, father, forgive me and 697 01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:05,200 I'm repenting of my sins. This is what we have to say unto 698 01:17:05,240 --> 01:17:08,440 our Lord this morning. Talk to God, surrender to God. 699 01:17:08,920 --> 01:17:14,360 Leave a suryapa.

Our Father help us. 708 01:18:10,160 --> 01:18:14,880 Lord, we are praying once again when our presiding was speaking, 709 01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:20,400 all that I could understand is that he want us to refresh 710 01:18:20,560 --> 01:18:24,240 Christ, or say you, whoever had any and nothing and normal soul, 711 01:18:24,520 --> 01:18:28,520 by not doing our own thing, but we representing Christ, we 712 01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:32,480 representing God on it, that his character will be seen in us, 713 01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:36,800 that we will not live a certain kind of life and come and stand 714 01:18:36,800 --> 01:18:40,200 here and pretend unto God. This is what we are praying this 715 01:18:40,200 --> 01:18:44,040 morning, that may we refresh Christ in whatever that we do, 716 01:18:44,280 --> 01:18:48,040 our character that alone, may the Lord change it and Mary 717 01:18:48,040 --> 01:18:53,840 refresh Christ. Prayer to God we pray Lord, and 718 01:18:53,960 --> 01:18:57,760 Mary refresh you, Lord. There are certain characters in 719 01:18:57,840 --> 01:19:01,000 US, Lord, that are not from you, Lord. 720 01:19:01,480 --> 01:19:05,440 We pray the Father take it away and Mary refresh you, Christ, 721 01:19:11,800 --> 01:19:18,400 Lord, that are not from you, Lord, take it away and may we 722 01:19:18,400 --> 01:19:23,000 refresh you, Lord. May our character, Lord be like 723 01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:26,040 you, Lord. May we love your taste, Lord. 724 01:19:26,520 --> 01:19:29,960 May we do your works, Lord. May we obey you, Lord. 725 01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:34,680 May we serve you, Lord.
