we want to speak to your soul and your
spirit today how many of you feel weary
in your soul feel weary in your spirit
have you ever asked yourself if I could
see what Jesus is looking at how would
life look like you know I don't know if
you've ever asked yourself or ever
thought about how sad it is that many
people give up at the point of
breakthrough I mean at the point of
actually entering the Promised Land they
give up because they can't see the
process that God has taken them through
and the process that God is doing and
where God is taking them so because
they're just focused on what they can
see on the outside they give up and
that's exactly what the enemy of our
soul wants to achieve he wants us to
abandon our faith he wants us to doubt
he wants us to feel like God has
abandoned us he wants us to feel
depressed he wants us to feel like
there's no point in continuing this is
what we want to talk about today because
God has really put on our hearts to
encourage the timid and weary soul that
yes we should not give up if Joseph had
given up in the dry pit or in the prison
he would have never become prime
minister of Egypt so we have to just
think about the fact that God never
gives up on us so therefore we should
never ever ever give up on God we really
want to encourage you whatever situation
you're facing right now whatever part of
the process that you are remember that
whilst we're on this Earth yes there
will be
trouble but when Jesus is with us our
perspective changes because we're not
facing it alone and you know sometimes
the desire or the decision to give up
it's not a conscious decision that we
make that yes I'm going to give up on
God today often it's a slow fade often
it's a slow Fade Into doubting into
worrying into not trusting into being
negative H that is why today we want to
ask God for the courage to Hope and not
give up that is our prayer today and we
know that many of you might be thinking
well I don't feel like giving up well
I'm sure in the past you might have
experienced that Temptation so many of
us experience the same temptation to
give up yet how do we respond to that
Temptation remember Jesus is with us
every moment and each moment he gives us
the the Courage the strength the
conviction to stand our ground if we
receive that in our heart so take
courage today we want to speak to your
soul we want to speak to your spirit and
we want to make sure that you don't give
up because breakthrough is around the
corner amen praise the Lord hallelujah
don't cry when you're about to enter the
promised land you you've passed through
the Wilderness as you enter the promised
land don't don't give up at this point
and what you're saying is exactly the
truth we it's at the point of
breakthrough that the devil will harm
you will fight you for you to give up
when you at the brink of
breakthrough when you're climbing a
mountain faith is climbing a mountain
right the toughest part of mountain
climbing when you reach the
summit everybody know the summit of the
mountain is so
steep so steep it takes extra might
extra forces to reach that Summit but
don't forget what the Bible says
David knew that and cry out he say who
can take me to the rock or the mountain
that is higher than
me David cried that he say how I wish I
would be a dove or a bird I will fly
over the trouble and run to the presence
of God because he was surrounded by
enemies everywhere we all want a fast
flight there we want a
shortcut so I want to tell you there's
no man of Faith No Heroes of
Faith who has not gone through the
Wilderness of
doubt in the
wilderness you have no life supporting
material in the wilderness there's
nothing on the outside to sustain your
faith in the wilderness everything is
dried you may be abandoned by people
because of your
circumstances you you may condemn
yourself yourself because of what you
have
done you may say ah God will not hear my
prayers God will not answer my
prayer we give up
easily our mind may give up our
understanding may give up but God never
never gives
up so are you in
doubt are you in fear in
desperation you have stopped going to
church you have stopped reading your
Bible you have stopped praying because
you think you have no hope for an
answer you have condemned yourself or
people have condemned
you you have given up your
faith Simon Peter had the same
issue when Jesus surrendered
himself to those who were taking him to
the
Cross Peter denied Jesus three times
times what's the reason why is the
reason why we give up sometime we give
up because of fear when you realize why
we give up it's because we engage our
body Our Own Strength our mental
strength that's why we give up we see it
as a a
human a human fight a human struggle
what God has called you to be is Beyond
Your
Capacity it's beyond your
wisdom God always ask you to do
something impossible to the flesh
impossible so if you try now to figure
God
out with your
intellectual you will soon give up but
glory be to
God God does not mind doubt as long as
you are seeking answer from him in the
midst of your doubt I
repeat God Jesus does not mind mind your
doubt he does not mind your weaknesses
he does not mind your desperate
situation he does not mind your fear as
long
as you are still seeking answer from him
in the midst of that terrible situation
you are
in you have prayed many has
prayed and say God has not answered my
prayer who told you
that who told you God has not heard you
M who told you God has not answered you
don't know the prayer you offered for so
many years are not
lost when you pray the answer we receive
from God is Not determined by our time
our method our ways but how God chooses
to implement his will in the requests
you you brought to his
throne God May answer quickly God may
take a time to answer he may answer in
different
ways so so God always answers the prayer
of faith take note of this whether you
doubt or
not God always answers the prayer of
faith but he does not answer it to the
letter not always the way we expect not
the way you
expect not the time you
expect everything from God is ruled by
his time and
ways I want to give you before we go to
the Pro text and just a little
example Israel faced a terrible
situation in Jeremiah chapter
42 God was warning his people come back
to me come back to me forsake your ways
forsake your ways because incoming
judgment was about to come it is never
the will of God to see people suffer
please I'm talking to you about the will
of God Jesus it is not his will to see
people suffer it is not his will to see
people die it is not his will to see
people lost even those who say I'm an
enemy of God I don't believe him I don't
want him I'm this I'm this God never
sees them as a man he sees them as God
he still loves them he never gives up on
them because time belongs to
God don't forget what Jesus say many of
the last will be the first many of the
first will be the
last when the Judgment was about to come
let me give just one example before R
introdu Us to the proof text of this
message Jeremiah chapter
42 the people came to Jeremiah to the
prophet maybe Ruth can read you I like
your accent Jeremiah chter 32 from verse
two so they were afraid they said let's
go and pray to God they themselves said
ah God will never answer our prayer
let's call the prophet let the prophet
pray for us maybe God will answer him so
they came to Jeremiah please can you
pray for us the situation is
desperate God does not speak to us maybe
God will speak to you let's listen to
what happened please let our petition be
acceptable to you and pray for us to the
Lord your God for all this Remnant since
we are left but a few of many as you can
see that the Lord your God may show us
the way in which we should walk and the
thing we should do then Jeremiah the
prophet said to them I have heard
indeed you see what Ru show us the way
and what to do are you in a situation
where there's no way out for
you are you in a situation where you
don't know what to
do continue what did Jeremiah said then
Jeremiah the prophet said to them I have
heard indeed I will pray to the Lord
your God according to your words and it
shall be that whatever the Lord answers
you I will declare it to you I will keep
nothing back from you say it again we we
we're going to break down the words of
Jeremiah he said Jeremiah say what
indeed I will pray to the Lord your God
according to your words I will according
to your words meaning I will bring your
petition to God not my words but your
words your request I will bring it to
God continue and it shall be that
whatever the Lord answers you I will
declare it to you I will keep nothing
back from you whatever God answers me I
will say to
you now go to verse 14 listen very
carefully Jeremiah went and began to
pray when did the answer came go to
verse 14 and listen saying no but we
will go to the land of Egypt where we
shall see no war nor hear the sound of
the trumpet nor be hungry for bread and
there we will dwell H then hear how the
word of the Lord oh remnant of Judah
thus says the Lord of hosts the god of
Israel if you wholly set your faces to
enter Egypt and go to dwell there then
it shall be that the sword which you
feared shall overtake you there in the
land of Egypt the Famine of which you
were afraid shall follow close after you
there in Egypt this is a danger and
there you shall die they wanted to run
to Egypt to look for
alternative and God said don't go there
some sometime we may face
situation and we want to have our own
convenient Alternatives from human hands
human
perspective the Bible says in proverb
14:12 there is such way that seems good
to you but the end is a way of
Destruction so when we pray what matters
to hear what God says let's go to verse
7 let's listen now
carefully and it happened after 10 days
that the word of the Lord came to
Jeremiah what notice what did you notice
today what do you notice in that
sentence after 10 days 10
days Jeremiah prayed he was praying he
was praying God never answered the first
day neither the second day 10 days after
the answer Came From
Heaven 10
days only God
knows what would they be would they have
strength in j wait for 10 days before
they acted for God's
answer remember Saul someone say wait
for seven days and he went and do the
sacrifice himself now after 10 days God
gave the answer to Jeremiah read
again verse 17 verse 14 seven verse 7
and it happened that after 10 days that
the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah
then he called Johanna the son of Kara
all all the captains of the forces which
were with him and all the people from
the last even from the least even to the
greatest and said to them thus says the
Lord the god of Israel to whom you sent
me to present your petition before him
if you will still remain in this land
then I will build you and not pull you
down and I will plant you and not pluck
you up for I relent concerning the
disaster that I have brought upon you
listen to that oh my God this is the
heart of
God the people behaved extremely badly
to the
extent judgment was coming because of
their
behavior now God said to
Jeremiah remain in this land don't run
away from the situation that is the isue
Don't Run Away stay where you are don't
be
afraid stay where you are keep your
position don't give
up where you are afraid I will come and
rescue you there don't leave your
position stay there and God say I will
relent of what of the disaster that I
brought upon you if you are willing to
obey me I will remove the disaster you
are afraid
of but you have to follow my ways not
your ways that is God for you God
chooses what you go through we choose
how we go through it we choose how we go
through
it whatever is situation you are facing
don't try to run out stay put keep your
position keep on praying and God will
give you the way out in the midst of
that situation where you
are don't run away don't take
alternative keep your Solly ground don't
give up don't give up don't give up
because God never gives
up now why God never gives up because
his ways are not our way is what you see
yourself at the
end may not be the end at all from God's
perspective the situation at hand May
point you to death to destruction oh my
God where are we going but God's word
points you to
life
now do you know what God has in store
for you for now and for
tomorrow do you know that your present
situation cannot determine your future
do you know what is in the heart of God
in the mind of God for you I'm speaking
to people who believes but there are so
many people
today who once was very zealous for
God reading their Bible going to church
fellowshipping their Zeal was so strong
but today they have given up their
faith I've so much read and see people
say oh I've l lost my
faith I no longer believe I'm no no
longer
believe I've lost my faith I no longer
believe some even went to the extent by
saying I'm not a
Christian what makes you a
Believer what makes you a
Christian is not on the outside is not
your background what makes you a
Christian is what Jesus Christ has done
for you at the cross of
calvary God's plan God's ways are beyond
our mental
imaginations so I want to take you back
to the proof text of today we go to the
book of Isaiah chapter
49 and listen very carefully we start
from verse one to verse 14 to tell you
in the midst of that situation you dread
in the midst of that situation you think
is terrible shameful abandoned in the
midst of that situation God is saying
something listen o coastlands to me and
take heed you peoples from afar the Lord
has called me from the womb from The
Matrix of my mother he has made mention
of my name and he has made my mouth like
a sharp sword good this me do you know
do you believe that before you were born
God knew
you before you formed in your mother's
womb before your father and your mom saw
your body the day of your birth God has
seen you in the
womb who forms your spirit within you is
God who created in the womb it is God
God say before I call you before you
form in the womb I Knew You by
name
continue in the shadow of his hand he
has hidden me and made me a PO shaft in
his quiver he has hidden me and he said
to me you are my servant o Israel in
whom I will be glorified then I said I
have labored in vain I have you you are
my what servant do you know that the
calling of
God some calling are before you born God
has predestined you for something you
don't
know you don't know what God has in
store for
you some no one is born righteous not
even one we all came from the same world
we all came from the dark no one is born
righteous not even
one the question is in the midst of the
confusion and darkness of situations all
around the world there is unseen hidden
plan of God for every single
person do you know your value before God
you may not see anything good in
yourself you
yourself you may not see anything good
in a person but but what is good it
takes spiritual eyes to see
it you may see your own weakness you may
see your background God never considers
your background to di your future go and
read your Bible very
well all those Jesus called for greater
responsibilities he took them from NE
from
grassroot go read your
Bible no intelligence no powerful God
chooses the
weak God chooses the humble so we can
depend on him in every situation of Our
Lives go and read mention every person
in the Bible God Called to Greater
offices God took them out of nothing go
and look JEA we all jeffa judges 11 who
was it an AR
robber you call amraa he was in the
forest attacking people and God to make
him a judge of Israel
when the time came your beginning is not
what matters to God what you are today
is not what matters to God you need to
find out what God has in store for you
in your life that's why it's so
important to look at things the way God
sees it and not just be
completely governed by what you see on
the outside your situation because you
can be at the point of entering the
promised land and then you give up
that's why it's such a Temptation for us
to just base our life on what we see
around us now many people may speak
negatively about you who are you you are
nothing you are worthless sometime even
the people that gave birth to you will
be the person that condemn you you are
nothing yeah useless person you hear
people cursing you saying so saying
those
words David's father never considered
him anything good apart from being a
Shepherd neither did his brothers
neither his
brothers but you need to have the eyes
of Jesus and today we are talking about
Jesus Christ we are talking about the
Lord
Jesus who was
Jesus is Jesus a mere man or the Lord
God who was
Jesus the way he came into this world so
that Jesus not a mere man he was born
out of a virgin am I right when Jesus
was born he was not born in a palace the
Bible says he was born in a manger H
there was there no room for him in the
hotel yes Jesus was born in a manger but
he never stayed there where is Jesus to
the highest Heights in
heaven God doesn't follow the ways of
man God has his own ways Ruth let's
continue then I said I have labored in
vain I have spent my strength for
nothing and in vain yet sure surely my
just reward is with the Lord say the
first sentence
again then I said I have labored in vain
thank you how many of you listen to me
has said this how many of us are saying
this every day I have labored in
vain I have prayed to God in
vain I've fasted I've prayed in vain in
vain I've worked in the church in vain I
pay my tithe in vain I pay my offering
in vain I've given up up many things
that I could have done to Satisfy My My
Flesh in vain you know many people begin
to measure maybe what they've given up
in the pursuit of God because they don't
see a result this is where we begin to
slide into giving up and we begin to see
see this the kingdom of God as a natural
thing it's not natural it's a spiritual
Kingdom let go to
do then I said I have labored in vain I
have spent my strength for nothing and
in vain yet surely my just reward is
with the Lord and my work and my work
with my God and now the Lord says who
formed me from the womb to be his
servant now listen to what God answers
to those who say I have given up to
bring Jacob back to him so that Israel
is gathered to him for I shall be
glorious in the eyes of the Lord and my
God shall be my strength indeed he says
if it is too small a thing that you
should be my servant to raise up the
tribes of Jacob and to restore the
preserved ones of Israel I will also
give you as a light to the Gentiles
means that you should be my salvation to
the ends of the Earth God has a plan
higher than you God is richer than your
dreams he's greater than your
weakness his ways are higher than our
thoughts and
ways we are the one limiting ourself in
the one foot ceiling God wants Sky to be
your
limit you are the one looking at your
circumstances why God wants you to look
beyond the circumstances to see what he
has in store behind that
situation the devil does not want you to
go beyond your situation devil come to
condemn you to destroy your faith to say
where is your God can't you see you
wasting your time and energy that's the
devil for you but you look beyond that
situation you will see the plan of God
the hidden plan of God in your life
Contin
read thus says the Lord the Redeemer of
Israel their Holy One to him who man
despises to him whom the nation uphor to
the servant of rulers Kings shall see
and arise princes also shall worship
because of the Lord who is faithful and
the Holy One of Israel and he has chosen
you are you despised by
men are you disappointed by men this the
question about disappointment M today
many give up because of disappointment
why because they expect so many things
on
man they put their faith on
man what man can do so they are
sensitive their faith is influenced by
how they are
doing I pray nothing happen how they are
treated no reward for
men it's because when you listen to many
people that given up their faith is
because of what people behave towards
them we we set we set ourselves up for
disappointment because we have our
expectations so so
high who is your god who is your reward
it's God who is your helper it's God and
God is not a man that will
lie God is
faithful who what is the object of your
faith when you think you are abandoned
you don't know you're close
when you think God will allow all human
health to go to abandon you so you can
see his grace in your life continue
reading thus says the Lord in an
acceptable time I have heard you and in
the day of salvation I have helped you
thank you in an acceptable time what
does this mean to you and I mean God has
an appointed time in his agenda and
calendar for your life
life no human being can push it
Forward no one can delay it you cannot
beat the gun there is an appointed time
settled by God in his agenda in the
course of your life and Destiny where he
will meet you at the point of
Salvation continue
reading I will preserve you and give you
as a covenant to the people to restore
the Earth to cause them to inherit the
desolate heritages that you may SA to
the prisoners go forth to those who are
in darkness show yourselves this is
exactly what Apostle Paul
said Saul who was persecuting the church
hating Jesus fighting the way never knew
he was predestined from the womb to be
an apostle of Jesus but he wasn't aware
of it until the time
came God's appointed time God to fulfill
his plan in your life
God will do something
extraordinary that will reverse your
life
360° God will turn your life around when
this time comes he's watching you so
when you
pray God is
listening and when you stop praying God
begin to act to fulfill his will in that
matter I repeat When you pray God
listens the question I'm asking
you how do we we know that God is
hearing our prayer is there any evidence
to know God has heard
me that's why we need to have faith and
believe is there any evidence I'm asking
the question even to you to everybody
peace of
heart that is it how do you know God has
answer you peace of
heart this body may be
shaking your emotion may be
high your mind may be completely lost H
but if you sit down deep inside you
there is peace of
heart there is peace of heart this mean
God is in
control nothing out of God's control can
happen to you no matter how unsteady the
world is around you no matter how you
look at the the situation of your
country the world you begin to lose hope
you begin to get discouraged don't ever
think that God has given up on you Moses
did Moses give up yes or no I said to
you for me Moses in the wilderness gave
up he ran away to the Wilderness for his
life and the Bible say for good 40 years
Moses was a Shepherd in the house of
Jetro IM Medan far away from the peace
people in
Egypt but one day when Moses have
forgotten anything I can say at the
burning bush the light shows
up it is never too late for God as far
as it is the will of God and that's why
God never ever ever gives up on us I
mean just look at the two thieves that
were crucified next to Jesus that should
let you know that God never gives up on
us and God is never
late your vision your dream we told you
is not ruled by your time is not ruled
by our clock but God's appointed time by
the way we heard that they change the
time
here God never changes his time God's
time is ruled by the clock of the Holy
Spirit and what it is time for God in
the midst of your situation he will
touch your life around Peter gave up at
the Seesaw couldn't catch feet in
Failure desperate
situation and that's where God met him
that's when Jesus came and get him out
of that
situation continue
reading listen to what God said they
shall feed along the roads and their
pastur shall be on all desolate Heights
they shall neither hunger nor thirst
neither heat nor Sun shall strike them
for he who has Mercy on them will lead
them even by the Springs of water he
will guide them I will make each of my
mountains a road and my highway shall be
elevated surely these shall come from
afar look those from the North and the
west and those and these from the land
of sim sing oh heavens be joyful o Earth
and break out in singing oh Mountains
for the Lord has comforted his people
and will have mercy on his afflicted but
Zion said the Lord has forsaken me and
my Lord has forgotten meh can a woman
forget her nursing child stop this we
want you to come say it again can a
woman say what do you say but Zion said
the Lord you listen to me you my brother
you my sister you who stop praying you
who doubt Jesus you who are weary you
who said will God answer me God has
forsaken
me this what God say God is asking you a
question mhm what did God say can a
woman forget her nursing child and not
have compassion on the son of her womb
surely they may forget yet I will not
forget you God say can a mother
forsake his nursing
child even if such mother can forsake
you God say I will never forsake
you who is closer to you your mom even
your dad your mom you will see with your
mom in her womb if the woman whom God
use to create you to nurture in her womb
can forsake you and God say I will never
forsake you mean God's promise in your
life nobody can remove it no situation
can remove it the Bible says God God's
calling and his gift are
irrevocable if you are elected from
God his calling his gift in your life
are irrevocable what the Bible says
going to Romans chapter
11 God is not a
man Numbers Chapter 23:
19 I think it's verse 19 or 29 man he
should lie yes what God Said will surely
come to
pass his ways are not your ways now what
is your situation today that caus you to
doubt what caus you to give up say I'm
not a
Believer I want to tell you we're going
to choose for you how Jesus changed the
life of some people that were in the
same situation who gave up completely in
the
Bible we are going to start first by the
Samaritan woman in the Book of John
chapter 4
the Bible says that she was what an
outcast what is an
outcast an outcast is someone who has no
right to
belong an outcast he was a foreigner to
the common wealth of Israel being a
Samaritan
woman she was she gave up because the
Bible says she she was having
disappointment in life she married five
men she was disappointed by men
disappointment disappointment and she
gave up
completely she was bitter with life
exactly what
happened Jesus came to her not her to
Jesus when you give up you stop praying
you stop looking for Jesus you stop
looking for God but God is moving
towards you that's the difference
between you and
God when you give up you have no hope
Jesus never gives up he's walking
towards you she didn't know that as she
was walking in her depression and her
bitterness and her sorrow towards the
well Jesus the Redeemer the Messiah was
walking towards her yes for a Divine
appointment so many have surrendered to
their situation to their fear to their
doubt while their heart is still
dreaming for miracle for breakthrough
for success for
salvation I repeat again
many today has given up their faith many
has surrendered because of their
situation because of doubt and fear
while their heart deep inside of them
are still dreaming for blessing for
breakthrough and that is what Jesus
considers the dream in your heart the
dream in your heart my dear brothers and
sisters the dream in your heart the
situation has complet they blindfold you
you forgot about your dream you forgot
about everything because of situation
Jesus sees that there's a light there
the devil he can rekindle that light the
devil see the star he know you have a
star the three my gu saw the star they
can see the spirit Herod did everything
to kill all the children because do the
Messiah to come from there that they
cannot stop Gods the question do you
know whom you are what is God for you
the light of God's revelation in your
life do you know
it so Jesus there was a barrier the
Bible says the Samaritan cannot come to
the Jews the Jews could come to them the
Jesus for the Jew but Jesus is the one
that break the I the ice how you say in
English did you break the ice yeah break
the eyes Jesus does not wait for you he
break the eyes and walks towards you
he's not a respect of person who engaged
the conversation first Jesus Jesus give
me a drink and she was shocked
how can you a Jew ask from me a
Samaritan for a drink now another person
I will tell you there's a man called
zakus in Luke chapter 19 who was zakus a
tax collector the tax collector somebody
who has money in a dubious way somebody
that stole money a Publican bad
reputation yeah seen as a traitor of his
yes had money had way is some a worldly
person
but one day in the midst of all the
riches he had something in his heart was
crying he heard about
Jesus Jesus went to Jericho go and read
your Bible only because of that
man when Jesus came to Jericho the Bible
say was thousand around him am I right
to the extent that zakus canot come
closer he has to climb the tree and
Jesus mentioned his
name he said today salvation has come to
your house come to your house he never
thought that Jesus knew
him
Nathaniel is anything good from Nazareth
who is This Man Called Jesus who is
he when he came Jesus say when you were
in the victory before he call you I saw
you Jesus knows everything about you
he's concerned about you and he's
concerned about you it does not take a
second for him to touch your
life it's not what makes us Christian is
not what we do is God's grace and
mercy Grace is undeserved what favor
favor that's why our relationship with
God must start with him saving us by
grace and that will make us eternally
grateful because we are receiving
something that we don't
deserve that relationship must be based
on Jesus you've done this for me I don't
deserve it thank you once you know what
Jesus has done for you thank you
everything will spring from there
appreciation will spring from there and
that is what will keep that light
burning in your heart okay this is
Elizabeth Chanda it's me mother God I'm
going through a lot let me ask you the
man at the pool of
Bethesda the Bible says the man was
suffering terrible sickness was lame 38
years 38 years at the
pool the man has have have given up why
why why he gave up can you can somebody
answer the question why the man gave up
because he said there there was no one
to help him into the pool why because he
was focusing on people M if it depend on
human beings will give
him man isn't man is not reliable okay
she's answering you no marriage at 55
years no children praise the Lord go and
ask Sarah I'm not saying you going to
wait for 99 years nothing is difficult
to God God say I will make the
Wilderness in the pool of Living
Waters so Jesus one day walked towards
the pool because of that
person when Jesus came he attended
directly to the
man he didn't ask the man to go inside
the water
imagine we are going to the
airport and the plane is at the tamak
and they said the first one we enter we
take the place anytime that the man run
to the airport the seat are taken over
he cannot ride before come to the desk
you canot come to the desk one day
imagine somebody came instead of going
to there somebody brought a private jet
and call you just for you enter this
place and take you to a place of healing
and safety Jesus came purposely for this
man Jesus said to him do you want to get
well the man said if I go there nobody
help me can't you imagine Jesus said
take your mat and walk that is Jesus
Christ for you Jesus would never ask any
by the permission about you if your
heart is for him and you cry in your
heart for Him the Lord will show up at
his time for you the day of salvation at
the appointed time he did it for me go
and see my testimony I'm going to repeat
again and for me as well for every one
of us here when you reach a A desperate
situation they said the end has come I
lived it the end has come where will I
be where will I go what I do Lord in
that Day Jesus SWS up and my life Chang
forever I don't know the fact that we're
sitting here today is just Testament of
God's Amazing Grace my dear brother we
are not here to say what pleases you to
hear it's what we lived we are sharing
with
you before God Almighty the witness of
Heaven that God is
real Jesus is real holy spirit is in our
midst his promises are real for those
who believe
now the question is who else again go
and read your Bible so many people who
feel condemned by this situation
rejected
hopeless Jesus came to them directly and
changed their
lives so you may be saying I'm not a
believer I'm not interested by Jesus I'm
not interested by this or you could even
stand against the
gospel I will tell you about Saul are
you telling me Saul was waiting for
salvation he was wanting to destroy the
Christians fighting Christianity wanted
to destroy
it he wanted to stop this anybody who
believed Jesus was in trouble in the
eyes of
Saul but Saul never knew that God has
predestined him before he was born to be
an apostle of
Christ when he was on his way to
Damascus to perpetrate
Evil Jesus himself came to him and
changed his
life the question I'm saying to
you who is the object of your faith
exactly that is the right question
that's exactly what I was thinking now
because if you say you've lost your
faith who is your faith in is is is your
faith in the God who said let there be
light and Light Came is is is your faith
in the god that said what I can do more
than you can even ask or
imagine it's not about great faith it's
about having faith in a great God and
and I think when I hear people say oh
I've lost my faith I I no longer believe
um I'm doubting my faith what's the
foundation of your
faith are you is your faith based on man
is Disappointment of men does that
affect your faith if your faith is in
Jesus Christ no matter what happens no
matter what comes it will stay firm
because it's
rooted in in the right soil and no
matter what what Storms Come it won't
Shake because Jesus cannot shake that is
why we just need to ask ourselves who is
our faith
in if you're tempted to give up it's a
natural human tendency to want to give
up when facing hard times don't feel
that you're the only one facing that
everyone goes through a situation in
their life where they feel like giving
up everyone you're not unique you're not
alone and Jesus understands that that's
why he promised you that you would not
what will happen to you cannot be more
than what you can bear because remember
you're not meant to Bear it alone
remember the Holy Spirit knows the
tempter he knows the questions on the
test yes he will never leave you without
the right answer that means God is
always one step ahead of
you you are in the midst of a situation
you can't move forward but God is beyond
that situation waiting for you he's the
shepherd he opened the way when they
were at the Red Sea all the people gave
up but God was beyond the Red
Sea God is richer than your dream he's
always one step ahead of you you are
thinking about today but God is in
tomorrow do you know your tomorrow and
that's the question do you know what
you're going to be
tomorrow go and see every Heroes of
Faith every sucess uccessful people
today sometime in their journey in the
past they had room for desperation many
has given
up they were tempted to give up who
gives up it is your brain your strength
that gave up but not your
spirit that's where holy spirit is
wonderful when you are
overwhelmed when your strength is gone
your human wisdom is
gone when you say ah I give up you even
don't want to pray
that's when the Holy Spirit will start
in your heart in that
light please I'm telling you don't allow
your
situation to dictate the direction of
your
faith one sister say ah I'm also 42
years no marriage no
kids okay I want to ask you a question
sister will ask this question what's her
name goba is k h u ba
a when God when you are married do you
know the purpose of
marriage do you know the plan of God in
your marriage do you know what God said
about
children do you know that now because of
42 years say hey it is impossible I have
no kids kids does not come by power and
might it's God that opened the womb to
give
birth do you know God's promises for
your
life do you at God's appointed time God
can change your life that's why we
believe go and read what Sarah was Baron
we all know that Rebecca was
Baron Rachel was
Baron Tamar was
Baron Rahab was Baron Ruth was
Baron B Sheba had no child until God
opened his
womb God is in full control of your life
his ways are not our ways that's
question you have to look to Jesus that
that's what I want to say if I can just
encourage you you know at the point in
my life but I can genuinely say that I
had no thought of getting married at all
like that was I did I thought I probably
would never even get married or I didn't
even that was not on the agenda I never
thought about it at all at that point in
my life in fact it was at the point in
my life where I was clinging closer to
the spirit than I ever had before
because you know it was a very difficult
painful tragic time of my life and I
didn't know I had to cling to the spirit
of God because there was nowhere else I
could cling to and the closer I got to
Jesus I actually even determined in my
heart that I just want to make Heaven I
just want to be I just want to be saved
I just want to make Heaven that was what
was was in my heart that was what was in
my mind I never even imagined getting
married and yet that was the moment that
God brought the Divine relationship that
brought about this marriage this Union
which is a Divine has a Divine Purpose
why am I saying this I'm saying this
because if you focus the Bible says seek
first the kingdom of God and all the
other things will follow but today what
we do is we seek first everything else
and we expect the kingdom of God to
follow no it's the other way around if
you genuinely seek first the kingdom of
God
first and put him first let him satisfy
you let him uh breathe his purpose in
you use you work in your heart process
your
heart then when you surrender yourself
to him at the right time he if it's part
of his plan he will bring a he will
bring your life partner in his way but
but if you focus on finding someone
finding a relationship by force under MK
because of age because time is ticking
because of this because of that because
of family pressure because of I look at
myself I feel lonely no you you can't
look for those things at that time it
won't it doesn't work like that God has
to work in the process of your heart and
he also has to work in the process of
the person that he's intended for you
both of you have to be at the right time
of that process the right time brings
the right person I can say that
genuinely because I've experienced it
and I'm experiencing it so please I want
to encourage any of you that begin to
say oh I'm not married look at the time
of my life I'm not in a relationship
don't look for those things look for God
thank you God will bring them listen to
her me I myself you talk about
yourself
Ruth when I saw you the first time I
myself I was
64 65 years old the first time no the
first time when you 2002 right were you
no no I'm not talking about that one
that one I never knew you you never knew
me we were working colleagues go
colleagues I say in 2021 and that August
2021 that day God revealed you to me I
never knew you my sister she was my
sister I was his brother never lasted
for her never looked for her for
anything God is a witness to what I'm
saying you know the day the Propet
departed I said but the end has come
where will I go I was I was like every
human being I said the end has come I
was about to give up what is next Lord
we two faced our temptation to give up
let me talking so the lady was that said
I have 55 years old or 42 years old what
about
me at the time people retire 60 years
old that's the time my life began
I want to repeat everybody knows at 60
years all over the world is at age for
retirement nobody will hire
you nobody will marry at 60 years why
God justed for me at 64 years and bring
Ruth to me why I I never have any child
in my life at 66 years old God give
birth to me Bel to
me our life is a
testimony if you you refuse to believe
look at us we are here Tak after a
personal experience of the goodness of
God of the reality of
God God is whom am I compare to you God
does as he wills please put Jesus to
where he belongs in your life he will
put you to where you belong in his
sight God said I will honor those who
honor
me which God I will beli in who is
Jesus who is our faith in he comes to
make impossibilities possible in your
life who are we to limit Jesus our faith
should be in God the Bible say have
faith in God not in
man man can tell you all sorts of things
no man is
reliable but Jesus Christ is reliable I
myself the testimony of my
life I face situation that gave up I
gave up
completely that day Jesus came to my
room whether you believe me or not it's
up to you to
choose it's reality of experience that
brought me to become a Christian not man
preached to me and tell me
this today our life is a
testimony that's why we
speak we speak to everybody that this
gospel you believe is not created by men
it's not mental imagination it's not
history
it's reality for those who believe in
Jesus God's promises are real so when
you approach it in a human way religious
way you may give up say I know this
canot work for me but when you are led
by Jesus when you come to him in spirit
and in truth by his Spirit you will see
the reality of God in your
life so please God is faithful
God is absolutely real and
faithful so when you give up maybe you
have given up you're watching
me today show me your doubt today I will
prove to you that Faith exist and faith
is real that Jesus is
real don't doubt your faith doubt your
doubts because they're
unreliable I'm telling you the
truth the question we
have this holy
Bible this book of the
Bible everything you need is in this
Bible where is Jesus today that's the
question I'm asking
anybody where is the object of your
faith do you need to see to touch to
feel in order to
believe or do you simply believe the
word is true that Jesus has risen from
the dead I'm asking another question
H when Paul came to Ephesians he said he
said to
them did you receive the Holy Spirit
when you
believed that's the question Paul
ask they say what the Holy Spirit I
never heard about Holy
Spirit who is the spirit of God to you
who is the Holy Spirit to you of what
value is of value is the Holy Spirit to
you the Bible say we are in the period
of Grace today
hey even if the whole world say there's
no more Christian on Earth holy spirit
is here today I tell
you just believe in Jesus today in the
secret place where you are today call
Jesus in your heart in sincerity of
heart and give your
testimony but if you call him for
selfish
reason classic and material you will not
heard him but if you call him for
salvation sake for whom he is is for
what he really promises you will see it
in your life seek first the kingdom of
God Madame who say 42 years I have no
child stop looking for child come to
Jesus say Lord do like Hannah I trust in
you you are the one that opened the womb
of Hanah open the wom of Rebecca you can
do it for me that's what you should
say speak the word of faith at all times
even though situations seem to be
impossible it honors Jesus Christ to
believe in him even while everything on
the outside contradict his faithfulness
in your
life that's the question today when you
actually mean it in your heart that's
what God will act on you know when you
make that decision in your heart a heart
decision that no matter what happens no
matter what comes Jesus I believe in you
I believe your word is true thank you
for coming into my life thank you for
saving me
thank you for giving me salvation thank
you for forgiving my sin when you
genuinely believe that from your heart
and you mean
it then life will never be the same it's
not that you will not face hard times
but God is with you in those hard times
and you will see that he will show
himself faithful in your
life I am speaking to you I'm looking at
the camera you are looking at me but I'm
speaking to you
what is your
situation what has led you to the
position where you
say I don't believe
anymore is Jesus real is God
real what has led you to that
situation if you look very clearly you
will see that many of those people is
because their faith was based on people
on situation not on God
himself but let me tell you something if
you realize that you can change
situation today
immediately God never mind our doubt as
long as we are seeking answer from him
in the midst of our doubts are you
disappointed by men are you disappointed
by
institutions Jesus is more than a man he
more than institution holy spirit is
here today of this we're going to pray
today we are going to
pray for any person who believe in
Jesus I'm going to pray for that person
that say I don't believe
anymore I'm depressed I'm depressed you
you know depression is not the language
of a Christian don't let that come from
your mouth that you're depressed no
matter what doubt is passing your mind
no matter if you're feeling bad if no
matter the emotions that are rising all
around you continue to cling to the word
of God don't let that confession come
from your lips that you're depressed no
because that's not the language of a
Christian so to you who said I do not
believe to you who say I'm
hopeless to you who say there's no way
out today I'm going to
pray to prove you that Faith
exist that Jesus is is Lord that Holy
Spirit is real if you believe remember
Jesus never prayed for any person
without asking them a
question when Jesus met the man who was
desperate at the pool of Bethesda the
first thing Jesus said do you want to
get
well it's a provoking question I've been
there for 38 years asking me this this
man is do can you see my leg you're
asking me if I want to get well Jesus
will ask the question
when they they brought to him a child in
John chapter
9 was born
blind Jesus will say Do you believe I
can do this for
you when blind bimus run to him Jesus
said what do you want me to do for you
mean Jesus has all your needs answer to
all your needs
Jesus is alive he's the object of our
faith whatever we receive from God
today come because of our faith in
him when Paul came to the Church of
Ephesus they were Christian they were
worshiping but they saw that Holy Spirit
wasn't there he asked them did you
receive the Holy Spirit when you
believed they say what kind of Holy
Spirit I never heard about this
Paul came reset their mind and they
receive Holy
Spirit God is waiting for you in the
midst of your
doubt Simon Peter when he denied Jesus
three times he gave
up the disciples when Jesus was
crucified the next day the first day of
the week they left the upper room they
stopped praying and say let's go back
fishing that's what they did when they
went to go back back to their former
activities thinking the end has come
Jesus met them at the Shaw and say cast
the net on the right what's about those
walking on the way to EMAs they'd given
up yes completely given up they going
back to their
houses and Jesus was walking and they
knew Jesus was there and Jesus said oh
you people whose hearts are slow to
believe that is the question why our
hearts are so slow to believe what God
says because of our natural
circumstances we believe we allow what
people say about us to affect our
faith we allow situation to affect our
faith we allow so many things to
influence our faith what does the Bible
say have faith in
God Have Faith In Jesus the only object
of our faith there's only one name m in
the book of Acts if you doubt go and
read what Simon Peter said there is
salvation in no other name than in the
name of Jesus Christ of
Nazareth healing salvation rescue is in
his
name so there is hope for you yeah you
who say You have given up we are going
to pray get connected by faith we going
to pray to Jesus if you know someone
who's given up on their faith quickly
send them the L think of this program so
they can join us in prayer it's not time
bound we stand here why are we praying
because we believe in Christ
Resurrection why are we praying we
believe that God is
real why are we praying because there is
the answer from God why are we praying
because the one who make the promise is
faithful and holy spirit is the Miss
today no man can do it for you you can't
see me I can't see you but I trust that
God what Jesus say is true Holy Spirit
in our midst and just before we pray
there was one thing that you said which
I think it'll be really good for you to
break it down where you said that the
the light of Hope in your heart is what
Jesus sees the dream like you might have
given up on the outside but your heart's
still dreaming for a miracle your
heart's still dreaming for that
Encounter With Jesus your heart's still
dreaming for your destiny in Christ
Jesus and that is what Jesus sees that
small more Light Of Hope is what Jesus
sees and rekindles so don't stop
dreaming ever don't allow that light to
be quenched by
circumstances when the light of Hope is
quenched life becomes a weary Road
that's why we give up God never ask us
to see how much Faith you have how much
strength you have never God say look to
Jesus the author and perfector of your
faith and Jesus will give you thatth
Faith exactly he's not saying how much
Faith do you have inside your heart he's
saying look to Jesus and take the faith
that you need from him because he's the
author of our faith he's the finisher of
of our faith even the faith that we
exercise to receive Jesus is the faith
that God himself puts in our heart so
it's not for you to look in your heart
and say I don't have faith I don't know
how to believe we need to look to Jesus
that's all we need to do that's the only
command our only Refuge is in that
command of Jesus just believe that is
it remember what the Bible says
believing is our
connection when you believe you possess
today this message is set to reset your
belief in the Son of God Jesus
Christ when Paul came to the Ephesus he
talk about Jesus when they recept their
faith in in Christ ability we believe in
Christ's ability that's why we pray pray
we believe in God's ability that's why
we pray we believe in the ability of the
Holy Ghost is love and compassion to you
it's not about you you will never
deserve anything I don't deserve
anything it's grace and
mercy Jesus has done everything for you
and me at the cross of
Calvary everything we receive is by
grace and mercy and God will never close
his heart to anybody who comes to him
Jesus say I will never reject anybody
comes to
me Jesus walked purposely toward these
people you are not the one to call for
him he's looking for
you he want to change your life he want
to answer you in his own ways and
times he's the same yesterday today and
forever so right
now what is the
situation we saw
barness one man say I created my
business I just wrote it now
that I invested I have no
customer I'm
smiling some say I've been praying I'm
going through H this brother we
say this man said 23 years old raised by
a dealer sometimes I wonder if God
really has a purpose in my life
considering how I grow up ah it's not
about where you come from God never
considers your past or your background
to determine your future moal
Sydney it's not where you come from that
matters Jesus never considers your past
to give you a future he came to change
your past and give you a future today if
you believe today is
opportunity no matter how many time you
pray and fast no matter how long you're
going to church it's not what you do it
is
Grace we don't trade with God no one is
righteous we live in God's grace and
mercy for our lives that's why we are
here to pray today and there are many
people that don't believe at all they
are not Christian but Jesus loved them
with the same
love that person if his heart turned to
Christ one second that person will
receive the grace we have
today it is never too late for anyone
who believe in Jesus you need to see the
light when you acknowledge your
situation and you see see your need for
him and your heart is genuine you will
see him he will visit you he's knocking
at the door he would never force himself
to anyone go faith is a
conviction so now which situation is
more desperate than the
Israelite which situation is more
desperate than the one of
job which situation is more desperate
than Daniel in the l d which situation
is more desperate when the AP Apostles
face in the persecution they
had but today they faith is what brought
this Bible
today Jesus is the same yesterday today
and forever so we're going to pray let's
pray let us pray I'm
praying because I
believe but put your faith in
Jesus put your faith in him he's the
only one who can change your
life he said where two or three are
gathered in my
name I am in their midst Matthew
chapter 18 verse 20 yes that's what
Jesus said he who believes in me and
pray without doubting whatever you ask

how God will do it for you I don't know
when he will do it I don't know but I
believe today if you pray you must
