1
00:00:02,100 --> 00:00:08,700
Welcome everybody to this great 
service that we are worshipping 

2
00:00:08,700 --> 00:00:13,400
our Lord, and savior, and our 
God and Father to tonight, we're

3
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:17,200
going to study one question. 
Very, very important question. 

4
00:00:17,900 --> 00:00:23,700
What, what is that in your hand?
We're going to study an old 

5
00:00:23,700 --> 00:00:26,200
sermon. 
I've been listening to this 

6
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:29,900
sermon since I was a child long 
time ago. 

7
00:00:30,300 --> 00:00:33,700
And you know, tonight we're 
going to learn some things that 

8
00:00:33,700 --> 00:00:38,200
you and I have in our hands. 
And we need to be careful with 

9
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:43,200
those things because we're going
to talk to God in Judgment Day 

10
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,800
to Jesus Christ. 
So we're going to learn 

11
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,700
something that you and I have in
our hands. 

12
00:00:50,300 --> 00:00:57,500
Exodus 4:2 says so the Lord said
to him, what is that in your 

13
00:00:57,500 --> 00:01:00,000
hand? 
He said a row. 

14
00:01:00,100 --> 00:01:06,400
Rod God asked Moses this 
question in order to show that 

15
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:12,300
he has unlimited power to 
strengthen the little man for a 

16
00:01:12,300 --> 00:01:19,800
mighty history-making job. 
God's people, the Israelites 

17
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:25,500
were slaves in Egypt through 
other beneath the oppressors 

18
00:01:25,500 --> 00:01:28,900
healed. 
It was God's will that they 

19
00:01:28,900 --> 00:01:35,500
Peter liver head that the Moses 
be the deliverer according to 

20
00:01:35,500 --> 00:01:38,800
what it says in Exodus 3, 9 and 
10. 

21
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:44,100
Now therefore Behold, The Cry of
the children of Israel has come 

22
00:01:44,100 --> 00:01:46,700
to me. 
And I have also seen The 

23
00:01:46,700 --> 00:01:50,400
operation with which the 
Egyptian of Preston. 

24
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,400
Come now. 
Therefore and I will send you to

25
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,900
Pharaoh, that you may bring my 
people, the children of Israel 

26
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:05,300
out of Egypt. 
Moses feeling his inability for 

27
00:02:05,300 --> 00:02:11,400
such a task said, in Exodus for 
one, they will not believe me or

28
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:16,600
listen to my voice. 
This prompted, the Lord to ask 

29
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,300
him. 
What is that in your hand? 

30
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:25,100
The answer was a rod, perhaps 
just a steep God from the 

31
00:02:25,100 --> 00:02:30,100
secret, used to turn the ship, 
but the Lord transform the 

32
00:02:30,100 --> 00:02:34,400
lightness rod. 
He do a serpent him from a 

33
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:40,600
serpent back to A-Rod. 
This was a sign to prove that 

34
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,500
the people would believe. 
That's what it says in verse. 

35
00:02:44,700 --> 00:02:49,400
Five that they may believe that 
the Lord God of their fathers, 

36
00:02:49,500 --> 00:02:54,400
the god of Abraham, the god of 
Isaac, the god of Jacob, his 

37
00:02:54,600 --> 00:03:01,700
appear to you. 
The almighty God had the power 

38
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:06,000
to accomplish his purpose 
through Moses. 

39
00:03:06,700 --> 00:03:15,300
How often we fail because we 
doubt his power working through 

40
00:03:15,300 --> 00:03:19,800
us. 
This is the big problem. 

41
00:03:20,500 --> 00:03:24,200
A Christian has tremendous 
power. 

42
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:32,000
He if he has the faith that Paul
Hess and he said in Philippians 

43
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:36,100
4:13. 
I can do all things through 

44
00:03:36,300 --> 00:03:46,200
Christ, which strengthens me. 
His not about our power, his not

45
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:50,900
about experience or expertise or
wisdom. 

46
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:57,500
No, no, or abilities is the 
power of God working. 

47
00:03:57,700 --> 00:04:01,300
Through us. 
That's why it has he done 

48
00:04:01,300 --> 00:04:06,000
happens in the Kingdom. 
The glory in an honor is to him 

49
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:11,100
not to us but to him, always 
always. 

50
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:19,899
That broad invested with God's 
power would enable Moses to do 

51
00:04:20,100 --> 00:04:24,200
science. 
Exodus 417 says he. 

52
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:28,900
You shall take these brought in 
your hand with which you shall 

53
00:04:29,100 --> 00:04:34,600
do science. 
It would serve as a credential. 

54
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:40,500
To prove that Moses 
representative of God does. 

55
00:04:40,500 --> 00:04:46,400
God has never sent out his 
servants without giving the 

56
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,600
evidence to prove the 
relationship with him. 

57
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:55,700
So much is the risk that this 
prove is crucial in effort to be

58
00:04:55,700 --> 00:04:59,500
successful. 
Therefore there must be on 

59
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:06,400
mistake of all evidence. 
Moses hit the rock, the apostles

60
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:11,800
had miraculous Powers. 
Look what it says in Acts 14 and

61
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,300
5 him being assembled together 
with them. 

62
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:19,900
He commanded them not to depart 
from Jerusalem, but wait for the

63
00:05:19,900 --> 00:05:24,800
promise of the Father, which he 
said, you have heard from me for

64
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,200
John. 
Truly baptized with water, but 

65
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,100
you shall be baptized with the 
Holy Spirit. 

66
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:36,100
Not many days from Um, now 
consequently, they perform 

67
00:05:36,100 --> 00:05:44,200
miracles to prove the word that 
they spoke Mark 16:20 says, and 

68
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,900
they went out and preached 
everywhere. 

69
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,600
The Lord working with them and 
confirming the word through the 

70
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,400
accompanying signs. 
Amen. 

71
00:05:56,100 --> 00:06:01,000
Today we have the scriptures, 
the boys of God. 

72
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:08,000
Second Timothy chapter 3 verses 
16 and 17 says, all scripture is

73
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:13,300
given by inspiration of God and 
is profitable for Doctrine for 

74
00:06:13,300 --> 00:06:17,400
reproof for correction for 
instruction, in righteousness. 

75
00:06:17,700 --> 00:06:22,800
That the man of God may be 
complete thoroughly equipped for

76
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,600
every good. 
Work. 

77
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:32,100
Today, we have to scripture the 
voice of God to prove what we 

78
00:06:32,100 --> 00:06:37,000
say. 
Now, think for a moment, God has

79
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:42,200
the power. 
To transform little things that 

80
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:47,900
he put in our hands, then make 
them be in Priceless to 

81
00:06:47,900 --> 00:06:53,600
accomplish whatever he wants his
not or expertise and I'm going 

82
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,700
to repeat again. 
And again, he's not our 

83
00:06:56,700 --> 00:07:02,100
expertise, he's not our power. 
He's got a wisdom or experience,

84
00:07:02,900 --> 00:07:08,600
his nothing with the abilities. 
He is God working through us. 

85
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,500
This is very important. 
I'm gonna prove with several 

86
00:07:12,500 --> 00:07:18,100
examples, how God has this trend
to take things of little value 

87
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:22,900
in our hands, then make them 
powerful and Priceless. 

88
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,100
Yes, sir. 
He's not because we are be 

89
00:07:27,100 --> 00:07:30,500
shocked. 
No, no, you know, very 

90
00:07:30,500 --> 00:07:34,700
experienced preachers. 
No, no, no, we're not, we're 

91
00:07:34,700 --> 00:07:38,900
not, I'm 65, I'm still learning 
and I'm going to die learning. 

92
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,500
Learning from Jesus Christ him 
from his word. 

93
00:07:43,700 --> 00:07:48,400
So it is very important. 
What is that in your him shamgar

94
00:07:48,700 --> 00:07:54,400
an ox God, okay, and ask God but
when dedicated to the service of

95
00:07:54,400 --> 00:08:00,000
God, it became an invincible 
weapon with which shamgar. 

96
00:08:00,100 --> 00:08:06,100
Kill 600 Philistines. 
That's what judges 330. 331 

97
00:08:06,900 --> 00:08:11,600
says, why? 
Why he was very experienced and 

98
00:08:11,700 --> 00:08:13,300
martial arts? 
No. 

99
00:08:13,500 --> 00:08:15,400
Oh no. 
No no sir. 

100
00:08:15,500 --> 00:08:17,800
No, what? 
Just an ox God. 

101
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:23,700
Okay, he was God. 
Who could use that Ox guard? 

102
00:08:23,700 --> 00:08:27,400
As a powerful weapon, not 
Shankar. 

103
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:32,100
No, ask God. 
God God, we never, we never, we 

104
00:08:32,100 --> 00:08:37,000
need to believe that because we 
worship Him and we serve him and

105
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,700
we talked about him to the 
people, but we need to believe 

106
00:08:41,100 --> 00:08:46,800
that he is his power through. 
Us that we may convince people 

107
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:51,900
to come to Jesus. 
What is that in your head? 

108
00:08:51,900 --> 00:08:56,600
David a sling. 
Well, but when given to the 

109
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:03,500
service of God, it becames 
powerful, David uses it to kill 

110
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,700
the Giant Goliath. 
In the save. 

111
00:09:06,700 --> 00:09:13,200
The army of God was not David 
was not, the sling was God. 

112
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:20,000
God, the power of God, we need 
to remember these. 

113
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:24,800
We need to believe these. 
We need to leave these because 

114
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,800
Christian Life. 
He said reality that you live 

115
00:09:28,900 --> 00:09:33,100
you enjoy. 
And that's when you share this 

116
00:09:33,100 --> 00:09:37,400
great news of Salvation. 
Everybody knows that is is real.

117
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:43,200
That's the difference and just 
preaching something or share 

118
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,500
something. 
What is that in your hand? 

119
00:09:46,500 --> 00:09:50,500
Jacob tools to dig a. 
Well, yes. 

120
00:09:50,700 --> 00:09:55,800
That's what the Bible says. 
In John 4 and bursts are six and

121
00:09:55,800 --> 00:10:01,400
seven years later. 
Jesus, a tired weary thirsty. 

122
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:06,900
Traveler sent upon the court of 
that whale in has his thirst 

123
00:10:06,900 --> 00:10:11,900
quenched. 
Jacob never realize that someday

124
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:17,800
his Lord would drink of that. 
Will there is a lesson to learn 

125
00:10:17,900 --> 00:10:21,500
right here. 
We never know who will benefit 

126
00:10:21,500 --> 00:10:27,000
from our Good Deeds because they
will bear fruit for ever. 

127
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,100
Yes. 
Yes, that's the way it is. 

128
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:35,700
You never know. 
So, always do good, deeds, you 

129
00:10:35,700 --> 00:10:37,500
never know. 
What? 

130
00:10:37,500 --> 00:10:41,800
You are accomplishing that 
moment and the future and when 

131
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,900
you're gone. 
What is that in your hand? 

132
00:10:45,900 --> 00:10:49,800
Your man a small amount of food 
him? 

133
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,800
What happened? 
Well with that little amount of 

134
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:57,100
food. 
God said, thousands. 

135
00:10:58,100 --> 00:11:00,700
He was not the fishes in the 
brain. 

136
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:05,500
What Jesus, his power remembered
us. 

137
00:11:05,500 --> 00:11:07,800
What we are trying to learn 
tonight. 

138
00:11:08,300 --> 00:11:14,100
He's not off his God, his power 
working through us. 

139
00:11:14,900 --> 00:11:19,600
What is that in your head? 
Do we do to two minds two minds?

140
00:11:19,900 --> 00:11:25,100
Well, but when given to the 
Lord, he constituted such a gift

141
00:11:25,100 --> 00:11:27,700
yet that Jesus regarded it as 
the Great. 

142
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:33,700
Sacrifice sacrifice or ball, who
hit cast into the treasury to 

143
00:11:33,700 --> 00:11:36,700
Minds. 
Rich people give a lot of money 

144
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:42,000
that poor Widow, only two bites.
It was more than the other 

145
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:48,100
people gay because the rich 
people give what they kept left,

146
00:11:48,100 --> 00:11:52,000
but the poor Widow gave 
everything. 

147
00:11:52,500 --> 00:11:54,800
Anybody can ask more than what 
you pay. 

148
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:58,900
When you give all that you have.
No that's the best you can. 

149
00:11:59,900 --> 00:12:03,900
Because we see through these 
examples, the Lord can take the 

150
00:12:03,900 --> 00:12:08,400
little things and our hands can 
make them be. 

151
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,200
If we Consecrate them to his 
service. 

152
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,800
That's the point. 
That's the point. 

153
00:12:15,100 --> 00:12:20,900
If you have something ability, a
talent for something to give to 

154
00:12:20,900 --> 00:12:25,100
God, give it, give it to him 
with all your heart, with all 

155
00:12:25,100 --> 00:12:29,400
your mind with your, hold your 
strength, and he's gonna use it 

156
00:12:29,500 --> 00:12:34,300
for his glory, and honor. 
And to accomplish what he has in

157
00:12:34,300 --> 00:12:41,900
mind, what he has in mind. 
Greatness in God's sight does 

158
00:12:41,900 --> 00:12:48,300
not depend upon the value nor 
the enormity of the things in 

159
00:12:48,300 --> 00:12:53,600
our hands, but our willingness 
to use it for his glory. 

160
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,100
Look what he says in 2nd 
Corinthians chapter 8 and verse 

161
00:12:57,100 --> 00:13:00,400
12. 
Port. 

162
00:13:00,900 --> 00:13:06,000
If there is first, a willing 
mind, that's the point you need 

163
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:12,800
to tell God, here I am, you just
me just me how, I don't know 

164
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,500
how, but just be, if you think 
that I can do something in the 

165
00:13:16,500 --> 00:13:20,000
Kingdom, to serve my brothers 
and sister to reach the 

166
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,100
community and bring them to 
Jesus, he loves me. 

167
00:13:23,100 --> 00:13:24,900
He has me. 
Here, I am. 

168
00:13:26,500 --> 00:13:29,600
That's what it says, really 
mind. 

169
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:35,600
It is accepted according to what
one has and not according to 

170
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:43,300
what he does not have. if I 
don't believe dad believe me, I 

171
00:13:43,300 --> 00:13:49,800
never going to stand before you 
I'm I can do, I can preach in 

172
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:55,100
Spanish, but in English is hard,
but I am here because you invite

173
00:13:55,100 --> 00:13:59,300
me to to be here. 
Then I feel sorry for you 

174
00:13:59,300 --> 00:14:04,200
because you need to struggle to 
understand my English. 

175
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,900
But, you know, I'm here because 
I believe that, you know, if 

176
00:14:08,300 --> 00:14:12,300
somebody asked me to preach in 
Italian, I'm going to learn how 

177
00:14:12,300 --> 00:14:15,700
to do it and how to let them 
know that God loved them. 

178
00:14:16,100 --> 00:14:20,300
God has a plan for them, Jesus 
died for them, come to him in 

179
00:14:20,300 --> 00:14:22,900
heaven upon the life and eternal
life in heaven. 

180
00:14:23,100 --> 00:14:27,200
You know, it CC and we have done
application that we saw this 

181
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:31,900
morning at the meeting say hi, 
we can use it in, you know, we 

182
00:14:31,900 --> 00:14:35,900
can preach in any any language 
but you know, we need to believe

183
00:14:36,100 --> 00:14:40,200
we are nobody without God. 
We are not okay. 

184
00:14:41,700 --> 00:14:49,600
So is God working through us? 
You know, I born in a little 

185
00:14:49,900 --> 00:14:54,600
town, close to Saltillo Mexico 
and the middle of nowhere. 

186
00:14:54,800 --> 00:15:01,600
Okay, here I am sharing with 
you, you know, the Gospel of 

187
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,800
Jesus Christ. 
He's not about me. 

188
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,200
It's about God. 
It's not about you. 

189
00:15:07,300 --> 00:15:10,900
It's about God. 
That's the only this works. 

190
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:17,200
Then that's the way God send 
results for his glory and honor.

191
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:21,800
Does he only way God is 
glorified? 

192
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:27,900
Because if not we're going to 
say me you know me I went there 

193
00:15:27,900 --> 00:15:32,200
and you know how many I bought 
that I respect everybody. 

194
00:15:32,900 --> 00:15:40,000
You know who go somewhere, 
baptized three or four and Start

195
00:15:40,100 --> 00:15:45,000
making reports that they 
baptized five and that tree as a

196
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:49,300
result of his trip know the 
preacher there were working 

197
00:15:49,300 --> 00:15:54,800
before you get there, you only 
make them wet, okay, you baptize

198
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:55,800
them. 
Okay? 

199
00:15:56,100 --> 00:16:00,500
You did the action but other 
people was working before you 

200
00:16:00,500 --> 00:16:03,800
get there. 
Very important. 

201
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:09,200
We have an eagle all of us. 
We need to keep like this. 

202
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:17,000
We are nobody. 
Okay nobody always is about. 

203
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:22,600
God asks does exactly the truth.
We the only thing that we need 

204
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:26,100
to have is willing Mind, Willie 
mind here. 

205
00:16:26,100 --> 00:16:30,300
I am use me. 
How you're the boss, you tell me

206
00:16:30,300 --> 00:16:33,900
how I'll be there and I do 
whatever you want me to do. 

207
00:16:34,700 --> 00:16:38,700
That's it. 
That's the only way this works. 

208
00:16:40,900 --> 00:16:46,700
But the real question tonight. 
He's not what shamgar or David, 

209
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:50,200
you know, we already know what 
they did with those things that 

210
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:54,500
God put in their heads, okay? 
But the real question is, what 

211
00:16:54,500 --> 00:16:57,100
is Daddy you here? 
Elias. 

212
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:02,600
What is that in your hand? 
Terry, and, you know, 

213
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:07,500
everybody's going to put your 
name in that blank at the end of

214
00:17:07,500 --> 00:17:11,300
the question. 
What is that in your hand 

215
00:17:11,300 --> 00:17:15,300
brother and sister so and soul? 
That's the question. 

216
00:17:15,700 --> 00:17:20,400
Okay, I'm going to help you 
tonight to realize what God has 

217
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,300
put in your hands. 
Your life. 

218
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:30,600
Yes everybody. 
Here in this room is alive, 

219
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,900
right? 
Yes, we are. 

220
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,400
Maybe somebody sometimes, you 
know, are sleeping but not this 

221
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,400
time. 
No, no, love only, you know, 

222
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:45,600
one, one time I, I told the 
people, you know, I'm better 

223
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:47,800
than porn when I'm on the 
pulpit. 

224
00:17:49,300 --> 00:17:53,200
And here's where are you doing? 
Yes, because when Paul preached 

225
00:17:53,500 --> 00:17:57,900
and draws one went to sleep when
I preach 20 or more. 

226
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,300
So. 
And then it's important, you 

227
00:18:00,300 --> 00:18:03,300
know? 
And that way, you know, no, but 

228
00:18:03,300 --> 00:18:07,200
we are here alive. 
Okay, let me tell you something.

229
00:18:08,300 --> 00:18:10,500
You have in your hand, your 
life. 

230
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:15,700
And let me tell you something 
else, non, but you can leave it 

231
00:18:16,100 --> 00:18:22,700
and only you can account of it. 
Romans 14:12. 

232
00:18:22,700 --> 00:18:26,500
So dead. 
Each of us shall give account. 

233
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:32,700
Account of himself to God. 
Think about it, think about it 

234
00:18:33,900 --> 00:18:38,100
and look what it says in 2nd 
Corinthians 5:10 for. 

235
00:18:38,100 --> 00:18:42,800
We must all appear before the 
Judgment seat of Christ. 

236
00:18:42,900 --> 00:18:48,100
That each one may receive the 
things done then in the body, 

237
00:18:48,300 --> 00:18:55,300
according to what he has done, 
whether good or bad, both are 

238
00:18:55,300 --> 00:19:00,700
present and future. 
Lives are what we make them. 

239
00:19:01,300 --> 00:19:07,200
We are reaping today, what? 
We soul and the past and we will

240
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:11,300
reap in the future but we are 
sewing and depressant. 

241
00:19:11,700 --> 00:19:18,000
Nobody can escape these 
unchangeable law of God that we 

242
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:23,700
find in Galatians. 6 and verse 7
do not be deceived. 

243
00:19:23,900 --> 00:19:28,700
God is Not mocked for whatever. 
Every Woman solves that will 

244
00:19:28,700 --> 00:19:35,300
also reap, please listen, 
carefully to what you have 

245
00:19:35,300 --> 00:19:39,800
heard, you have the choice to 
live your life and the way you 

246
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:45,300
want, you can do with your life,
whatever you want to do with it.

247
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:50,900
But remember, you are sewing 
today and you will reap 

248
00:19:50,900 --> 00:19:54,600
tomorrow, young people. 
You need to think about this. 

249
00:19:55,100 --> 00:19:59,200
You are sewing today. 
You will reap to tomorrow. 

250
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:04,400
That's what the Bible says in 
Galatians, 6 and burst 7. 

251
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:10,600
Never forget that your decisions
today are going to bring results

252
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:15,500
tomorrow. 
So think about it, think before 

253
00:20:15,500 --> 00:20:19,400
you make a decision because 
you're going to see the result 

254
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:23,800
of that decision, one year, five
years, ten years, twenty years 

255
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:28,400
from now. 
Now, when we About life. 

256
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:36,900
We can talk of. 
We talk about time time is the 

257
00:20:36,900 --> 00:20:39,800
precious commodity that is given
to us? 

258
00:20:39,900 --> 00:20:43,100
It's free. 
He cannot be bought normal, 

259
00:20:43,100 --> 00:20:49,000
doesn't matter of no amount of 
money will buy one hour of time.

260
00:20:49,700 --> 00:20:56,500
It is to Priceless to waste to 
waste time his to waste. 

261
00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:03,000
Life for that. 
Is what life is made of time, is

262
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:07,100
the man's greatest friend or 
enemy. 

263
00:21:07,500 --> 00:21:11,700
Depending upon the use. 
He makes of it. 

264
00:21:12,500 --> 00:21:16,800
Look what David said in Psalm 90
in verse 12. 

265
00:21:17,100 --> 00:21:24,100
So teach us the number, our days
that we may gain a heart of 

266
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:28,600
wisdom. 
You can gain wisdom when you 

267
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:34,100
fear the lord, and he is number 
one in your life. 

268
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:41,800
That's when you gain wisdom. 
Let's finish this point asking 

269
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:45,400
ourselves. 
How do we use our time? 

270
00:21:46,700 --> 00:21:53,600
Think about this week that is 
sending tonight, how we spend 

271
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:59,600
six days, Sunday, Monday, 
Tuesday, until Saturday. 

272
00:22:00,500 --> 00:22:04,300
How much time we spend in the 
spiritual matters. 

273
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:11,400
How much time we spend making 
money, how much we spend this 

274
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:17,800
week and entertainment. 
How much time we spend learning 

275
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:21,700
about God's word? 
How much time we spend talking 

276
00:22:21,700 --> 00:22:26,800
to God? 
How much time we spend quality 

277
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:32,700
time with family? 
How much time we spend sharing 

278
00:22:32,700 --> 00:22:38,600
the gospel to our co-workers, or
neighbors, or friends? 

279
00:22:38,700 --> 00:22:43,400
How much time? 
Well, listen, what Paul is 

280
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:50,600
saying, in Ephesians chapter 5 
verses 15 and 16, see then that 

281
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:57,100
you work walk circum 
circumspectly, not as fools. 

282
00:22:57,500 --> 00:23:05,000
That us wise Redeeming the time 
because the days are evil, we 

283
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,700
need to learn to redeem the 
time. 

284
00:23:09,900 --> 00:23:15,900
Be wise redeemed, you to redeem 
the time, make priorities. 

285
00:23:17,900 --> 00:23:24,600
Never be as fool. 
Just wasting your time, you're 

286
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:29,700
just killing your time. 
If you could waste one hour, 

287
00:23:30,500 --> 00:23:36,000
never going to be recovery. 
Never is gone forever. 

288
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:43,000
So think about it, how we spend 
our time time is equal to life. 

289
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:47,700
Life is equals time. 
And we're going to give account 

290
00:23:48,100 --> 00:23:52,300
of our life in how we spend our 
time. 

291
00:23:54,900 --> 00:24:01,100
You have in your head influence 
reputation, good or bad name. 

292
00:24:02,700 --> 00:24:08,100
That's what the Bible tells us. 
So this is something else that 

293
00:24:08,100 --> 00:24:13,100
we need to think about it. 
Influence, good or bad is 

294
00:24:13,100 --> 00:24:17,300
something. 
Every person has within his own 

295
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:23,800
hands. 
It will bless or harm depending 

296
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,700
on its nature. 
Talking about good influence, 

297
00:24:27,900 --> 00:24:32,100
look what it says in Daniel, 
chapter 6, 26 and 27. 

298
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:37,700
I make a decree that in every 
Dominion of my kin Kingdom. 

299
00:24:37,900 --> 00:24:45,300
May most tremble in fear before 
the god of Daniel, for he is the

300
00:24:45,300 --> 00:24:52,300
Living God and steadfast forever
his He is the one who is shall 

301
00:24:52,300 --> 00:24:56,400
not be destroyed. 
His Dominion shall endure to the

302
00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:01,200
end, he delivers the rescues, 
and he worked signs and wonders 

303
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:06,400
in heaven and on Earth, who has 
delivered Daniel from the power 

304
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,500
of the Lions. 
Good evening, yes. 

305
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:15,800
Yes. 
Daniel his influence LED an 

306
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:22,400
entire Kingdom fear and respect 
God, why why? 

307
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:27,300
The king said that? 
Because the good influence of 

308
00:25:27,300 --> 00:25:32,800
one mean, Daniel, you can do a 
great difference. 

309
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:42,400
With your influence for good or 
for bad, think about that, think

310
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:46,300
about that. 
The Bible talks about that 

311
00:25:46,300 --> 00:25:50,100
influence. 
And First Corinthians 5:6, your 

312
00:25:50,100 --> 00:25:53,100
glorying is not good. 
Do you not know that? 

313
00:25:53,100 --> 00:25:57,200
A little leaven leavens the 
whole lump? 

314
00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,700
Yes, you know? 
Good evening. 

315
00:25:59,700 --> 00:26:04,700
This is hard to share and people
to reach but bad influence. 

316
00:26:04,900 --> 00:26:07,900
Hmm, very easy. 
Very easy. 

317
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:13,400
So think about these things that
God put in. 

318
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,900
Can let me tell you something 
else. 

319
00:26:18,900 --> 00:26:22,200
Influence. 
Going to stay here. 

320
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:27,700
When we are gone, that's what 
the Bible says Revelation. 14:13

321
00:26:28,300 --> 00:26:33,700
says, yes says to Spirit that 
they may rest from their labors 

322
00:26:33,900 --> 00:26:39,000
and their Works, follow them. 
This is very important, very, 

323
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:43,800
very important. 
When we depart from this world, 

324
00:26:43,900 --> 00:26:49,100
our family or Brothers and 
Sisters in Christ are friends. 

325
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:55,900
There are our enemies are going 
to remember us based on on or 

326
00:26:55,900 --> 00:26:59,100
influence that we live on this 
Earth. 

327
00:26:59,900 --> 00:27:05,600
How are you going to be 
remembered as a parent that care

328
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:10,500
for their children as a 
Christian who has passion for 

329
00:27:10,500 --> 00:27:15,400
God and Country? 
Passion for me a child of God 

330
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:19,400
with convictions have reliable 
person. 

331
00:27:20,100 --> 00:27:25,200
Someone that you can count on 
remember or influence is going 

332
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:31,500
to remain here for we are God I 
remember brother Marvin fish and

333
00:27:31,500 --> 00:27:34,100
we were talking about him on the
way here. 

334
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:42,200
Yes, great man of God, he wasn't
Elder in El Cajon and when we 

335
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:49,200
had a potluck, you know him he 
was with it back you know pick 

336
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:53,700
it and fill that back with trash
that he was a mentor. 

337
00:27:54,400 --> 00:28:00,100
Yes, yes, you know, I always 
remember him as a very humble 

338
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,500
Humble man of God. 
I can't remember about brother. 

339
00:28:04,500 --> 00:28:06,600
Be sent in from Mexico, on Old 
Man. 

340
00:28:07,900 --> 00:28:15,000
He was the happiest person that 
I ever met if you was so poor 

341
00:28:15,300 --> 00:28:23,600
has almost nothing and he was so
happy and they have contentment 

342
00:28:23,900 --> 00:28:27,600
all the time until he passed 
away. 

343
00:28:28,100 --> 00:28:31,900
So remember your influence stays
here? 

344
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:37,500
When we are going, we are gone, 
your talents, we talk. 

345
00:28:37,700 --> 00:28:43,700
Just about Tomlinson, I just 
want to read this scripture then

346
00:28:43,700 --> 00:28:48,300
he who had received the one 
Talent came and said, Lord I 

347
00:28:48,300 --> 00:28:54,900
need you, I knew you to be a 
hard man, reaping where you have

348
00:28:54,900 --> 00:29:00,300
not sown and Gathering where you
have not scattered seed and I 

349
00:29:00,300 --> 00:29:05,200
was afraid and I went and did 
you and hid your talent? 

350
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:10,500
And the crown look there, You 
have what is yours but the Lord 

351
00:29:10,500 --> 00:29:16,600
answered and said to him, you 
Wicked and lazy servant you knew

352
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:20,200
that I reap. 
What I have not sold in gather 

353
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:25,300
where I have not scattered seed 
so you ought to have deposited 

354
00:29:25,300 --> 00:29:30,300
my money with the bankers and at
my coming, I would have received

355
00:29:30,300 --> 00:29:36,200
back my own with interest 
therefore take the talent from 

356
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:43,300
him and give it to Him who has 
ten talents for to everyone who 

357
00:29:43,300 --> 00:29:49,500
has more will be given and he 
will have abundance, but from 

358
00:29:49,700 --> 00:29:54,700
him, but from him who does not 
have, even what he has, will be 

359
00:29:54,700 --> 00:29:59,100
taken away and cast the 
unprofitable servant into the 

360
00:29:59,100 --> 00:30:02,600
outer Darkness. 
There will be the Weeping and 

361
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:07,400
gnashing of teeth. 
Don't tell me that you don't 

362
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,100
have anything to do for God. 
And his kingdom. 

363
00:30:10,100 --> 00:30:13,000
Never tell me. 
Dad, dr. 

364
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,900
Scripture said, at least you 
have one thing to do. 

365
00:30:16,500 --> 00:30:21,200
Perhaps 25 or you know, but 
never say. 

366
00:30:22,500 --> 00:30:26,100
I don't have anything to do for 
God and his kingdom. 

367
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:31,500
And think about the abilities 
that you have that God put in 

368
00:30:31,500 --> 00:30:36,000
your hands. 
One of these days, our Lord and 

369
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:42,300
savior going to ask how we do 
with the talents abilities that 

370
00:30:42,300 --> 00:30:46,900
he put in our hands. 
The Bible tells us and they this

371
00:30:46,900 --> 00:30:52,500
Parable that if we don't use it,
they going to be taking them, 

372
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:56,700
take them away. 
If we use them, God is going to 

373
00:30:56,700 --> 00:31:03,700
give keep us more and more and 
more. but if not, we want to 

374
00:31:03,708 --> 00:31:09,300
spend eternity in hell, that's 
what James 4. 

375
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:14,700
And 17 says, when you know what 
is good and you don't do it, 

376
00:31:15,300 --> 00:31:17,600
you're sinning. 
That's what the Bible says 

377
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:21,500
there. 
So we need to put in practice. 

378
00:31:21,700 --> 00:31:26,700
What we know that God wants us 
to do. 

379
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:31,700
And Luke 12:48 says, for 
everyone to whom much is given 

380
00:31:31,900 --> 00:31:38,800
from him much will be required. 
It is very important to realize 

381
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:45,800
what he has put in our hands and
we need to choose them the best 

382
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:52,200
we can. 
The church God has put the 

383
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:57,500
church and our hands and this 
generation where we are. 

384
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:01,500
Yes! 
We have the greatest privilege 

385
00:32:01,500 --> 00:32:07,200
and responsibility to have the 
church in our hands today. 

386
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:14,300
We need to keep the church pure 
without blemished. 

387
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:19,500
Look what it says in Ephesians 
chapter 5 and verse 27, that he 

388
00:32:19,500 --> 00:32:23,900
might present himself present 
her to himself. 

389
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:30,100
A glorious church not having 
spot or wrinkle or such thing 

390
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:36,000
but that she should be holy and 
without blemish. 

391
00:32:36,500 --> 00:32:38,800
That's the challenge. 
That is the challenge. 

392
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,000
That you and I have with the 
choice. 

393
00:32:42,900 --> 00:32:45,200
Let me tell you something about 
the church. 

394
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:50,500
The church was bought. 
By the blood of Jesus Christ. 

395
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:55,100
The church is the greatest 
institution on Earth. 

396
00:32:56,400 --> 00:33:01,700
And Lisa, all the sir privilege 
for me to be part of it. 

397
00:33:05,300 --> 00:33:09,700
So we need to realize how 
privileged people. 

398
00:33:09,700 --> 00:33:17,900
We are only for the fact that we
are part of the church, the body

399
00:33:17,900 --> 00:33:22,400
of Christ. 
It's just amazing. 

400
00:33:22,500 --> 00:33:26,300
That just amazing to think about
that. 

401
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:35,000
Well, look the challenge that we
have to face in a daily basis to

402
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:40,800
keep it clean. 
Pure weirdest part, that's what 

403
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:46,000
the Bible says because we need 
to present the body of Christ to

404
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:52,000
everybody around Bakersfield. 
And everybody needs to know that

405
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,800
the Church of Christ is the body
of Christ. 

406
00:33:55,900 --> 00:34:00,100
And that is the Glorious 
institution, the most glorious 

407
00:34:00,100 --> 00:34:04,700
institution on Earth. 
Does the only way that we can 

408
00:34:05,100 --> 00:34:07,700
bring people and be part of 
that? 

409
00:34:07,700 --> 00:34:12,600
Glorious institution, we have to
be very careful about the 

410
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:16,699
decisions that we make for the 
church. 

411
00:34:17,199 --> 00:34:22,699
Any decision, any plan, any 
effort has to be according to 

412
00:34:22,900 --> 00:34:26,699
her head. 
Jesus Christ, we have no 

413
00:34:26,699 --> 00:34:31,900
authority to do anything 
different than what Jesus says 

414
00:34:32,100 --> 00:34:33,400
and in. 
Testament. 

415
00:34:33,900 --> 00:34:37,199
If we try to do that, look what 
it says in Galatians. 1:6 

416
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:42,800
through 9. 
We pervert we prepared the 

417
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:51,100
gospel of Christ and we bring 
reproach to this glorious 

418
00:34:51,300 --> 00:34:56,699
institution so we need to be 
very careful on that. 

419
00:34:58,300 --> 00:35:02,900
Finally. 
You have your soul in your 

420
00:35:02,900 --> 00:35:10,600
hands. 
Salvation is in your hand, Peter

421
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:15,400
admonition. 
Admonished the people and 

422
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:21,500
Pentecost and with many other 
words, testified and exhorted 

423
00:35:21,500 --> 00:35:28,100
them saying be saved from this 
perverse generation. 

424
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:34,000
Our soul is so precious to lose.
Look what it says. 

425
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:39,000
And Mark 8:36 and 37 for what 
will it profit? 

426
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:44,200
A man if he gains the whole 
world and loses his own soul or 

427
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:49,200
what will a man give in exchange
for his soul? 

428
00:35:50,500 --> 00:35:56,900
Many people exchange his soul 
for Pleasures for seen for the 

429
00:35:56,900 --> 00:36:00,800
world is not worthy is not 
worthy. 

430
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:08,900
The soul is the most precious 
thing that we need to keep safe 

431
00:36:08,900 --> 00:36:12,000
for it for that, for that 
reason. 

432
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:17,800
Look what it says, if your right
eye causes you to sin, pluck it 

433
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:22,000
out and cast it from you. 
For it is more profitable for 

434
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,100
you. 
That one of your members 

435
00:36:24,100 --> 00:36:29,500
perished that then for your 
whole body, to be cast into 

436
00:36:29,700 --> 00:36:33,100
hell. 
And if you write in Did you two 

437
00:36:33,100 --> 00:36:36,200
seem cut it off and cast it from
you? 

438
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:39,900
For it is more profitable for 
you that one of your members 

439
00:36:39,900 --> 00:36:44,800
perish than for your whole body 
to be cast into hell. 

440
00:36:45,100 --> 00:36:47,400
And of course, is not talking 
literally. 

441
00:36:48,700 --> 00:36:51,200
No, no it's talking a figurative
way. 

442
00:36:51,300 --> 00:37:01,600
You know anything or anybody who
puts our soul at risk should be 

443
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:09,800
immediately removed from our 
lives and quick and permanent 

444
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,700
fashion period. 
That's it. 

445
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:20,900
That is he That's why we need to
realize brethren. 

446
00:37:22,900 --> 00:37:26,200
What you have in your hands and 
what I have. 

447
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:32,900
And in my hands, we're going to 
give account of each thing that 

448
00:37:32,900 --> 00:37:38,500
God put in our hands, please. 
Please, our prayer should be, 

449
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:42,900
please God. 
Help us to use anything that you

450
00:37:42,900 --> 00:37:47,400
put it in my hands For Your 
Glory, and for your honor for 

451
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,700
the Salvation of many for the 
edification. 

452
00:37:51,700 --> 00:37:54,900
Of the saints, that should be 
our prayer. 

453
00:37:56,000 --> 00:38:00,800
Banco Christian God asked Moses 
this question in order to show 

454
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:05,700
that he has unlimited power to 
strengthen the little man for a 

455
00:38:05,700 --> 00:38:11,200
mighty history-making job is not
you remember. 

456
00:38:12,300 --> 00:38:17,900
We need to talk with our berry 
experience preacher for these. 

457
00:38:17,900 --> 00:38:23,900
No, no, no, no, no, don't do 
that because you are putting 

458
00:38:24,100 --> 00:38:28,400
your trust in men. 
We put the trust in God. 

459
00:38:32,300 --> 00:38:38,600
You need only trust in God, have
a good disposition and serve him

460
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:43,100
and he will accomplish his plan 
with those little things that he

461
00:38:43,100 --> 00:38:46,600
put in your hands. 
Yes, he has that power. 

462
00:38:46,900 --> 00:38:51,100
He is a little experience, you 
know, doing that he's he is 

463
00:38:51,100 --> 00:38:54,200
expert on that. 
There are has the power to 

464
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:59,600
accomplish his purpose to you. 
And me, it is not our power, our

465
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:01,900
experience, our abilities, our 
wisdom. 

466
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:07,100
You know, I'm old and I'm 
getting old older and older. 

467
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:13,900
Well as my life goes. 
You know, I know instead of 

468
00:39:13,900 --> 00:39:19,300
gaining wisdom, I consider me 
more fool foolish. 

469
00:39:19,700 --> 00:39:22,500
Really, really does. 
Exactly, right. 

470
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,200
So, that's why I need to depend 
on. 

471
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:30,900
God, not on me or others on God 
on God. 

472
00:39:30,900 --> 00:39:33,700
God is the source. 
Power. 

473
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:37,600
God is the source of wisdom. 
God is the source of everything.

474
00:39:38,100 --> 00:39:41,300
So if you go to him and ask him,
use me. 

475
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:46,800
Me, he's going to juice you and 
the way he wants, remember 

476
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:51,400
noise, not our power, our 
experience ability or wisdom is 

477
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:58,800
his power working.
