Do you believe that put your hands together for Jesus Christ? God is good a man church and he's good all the time I just want to ask a question. How many guys like people who are negative in their life in your life And nobody nobody likes these people who are just always negative always, you know on the downside always You know you ask him how the day was now tell you how everything's going bad even though they might have you know 99 things are going good and one that is bad and they'll spend the whole day talking about the one thing that is bad And you know in the Bible in in numbers 11 verse 1 Even to say that God also hates negativity hates people who are negative and it says here numbers 11 verse 1 says Now when the people complained it displeased the Lord for the Lord heard it and his angered and his anger was aroused People begin to sell God and to say you know God you can't do this You know they begin to complain that there's certain things are going wrong You know things are not enough that God know why did God rescue them? You know just begin to be negative and God begin to become angry because whenever they were faced with the negative situation They didn't have enough faith to believe that God can bring him through No, when we believe about our generation that God can save them You know you can say that you know in tri-cities. We have 60% of people who are our church Who don't go to church 101 thousand people in tri-cities who are in church you can look at that statistic and say Yeah, those are bad news But God does not want us to see it that way God wants us to see that there is grace to see every single soul being saved Amen church There's grace and not because God has sent his son on the cross to die for every single person And that is for us whenever we're faced with the negative situation to believe that God can do it Amen Salvation of people's souls can never be underestimated because God Jesus Christ has died a brutal death For people's lives to be saved So salvation of people souls when we come and we pray you know during this time where we're gonna come and we're gonna pray We cannot underestimate we cannot take it lightly because Jesus Christ did not just you know suffer a little He gave his whole life to see a generation saved in man church and this is why it is important to us This is why we take a time during during our church service to begin to pray for that because it matters to God It matters to God because God does not want us to see our generation say you know so many people going to hell So many people are in drugs so many people in divorce God wants us to see an Impossible situation and say that we're gonna see thousands saved locally in millions globally in man church And that is what we're gonna pray about tonight That is what we're gonna believe tonight because our God is a God of possible a man church Let us open up a lips right now to begin to ask God Begin to crowd to see a generation saved that in our in our in our schools We're going to have Christian Bible clubs that we're gonna have a bigger building that we're gonna have more people being saved every Wednesday on our home groups on every service in Jesus name a man church Let us open up a lips. Let's begin to pray. Yes, Lord tonight We recognize that your sacrifice wasn't just for nothing Recognize that your sacrifice wasn't just for a few but it's for all your people Lord We're gonna ask you let's just give us kind of heart and compassion God Let me go on to our school sword and we start course in Jesus name. Yes, father. We come a brief This young generation Lord father God I pray for this generation to be saved. Oh father God I declare a thousand of Jesus Christ Lord father God that message will be drawn to your name God There are schools that are working in a Jesus Christ in the mighty name of Jesus Christ We continue to pray for our city We ask you God for our city God for our people God for the drug edicts for the drug dealers Lord God for the people who are sick Lord God for people who have rejected you walk the way we ask for them God We ask for the good citizens and the bad citizens alike God in the past No, I was not able to save his generation and maybe Jeremiah was not able to save his generation God But you are with us God. We have your suffering you suffered for this city Lord God Well, you have sent your spirit to assist us Lord God. We believe that it can be done We believe that every person shall be saved every marriage will be restored God that we ask you father Please name of Jesus.

All right, and let's welcome to the next person How's everyone doing? All right, God is good And all the time I've always wanted to do that. It's pretty cool All right, so I have the previous talk to talk to you about offering and During high school, I would I would never tied I never never really did anything about I grew up pastor's kid and And I I felt like I didn't have to tie it because my grandpa's giving me money all the time So why would I tie it's gonna I'm gonna get it back eventually. I didn't feel like I didn't feel like it was Like I see no point to it type of thing So I just went through all high school. I had a part-time job work weekends and I didn't type But finally realized that tidying it's not something like you have to do it's something you get to do I Tidings like I didn't one thing I didn't realize is that of course it's gonna help the church It's gonna help every the pastor everything, but I didn't realize that it was gonna help me more than them yeah, and Another thing When you pay your tides Not only is it gonna help pay like the church bills or the church staff and stuff like that That 10% shows that you're acknowledging God as your king like you're acknowledging God as your provider your healer Everything you're putting them number one. You're putting them ahead of everything ahead of all your problems ahead of everything And maybe a lot of you are sitting here thinking you know what I don't I really just don't have the money right now I I kind of scared to give or what I just just know one thing no one has ever became poor by giving and If you feel like you might be giving too much or anything just another thing just know that you will never never I guarantee you this You will never out give God So basically tight tidiness. It's look at it as a partnership that you make with God it's It's like like like an honor or something that you should be happy to do it You should feel honored to do it. You're honoring God These days a lot of people a lot of people want to invest in property and stuff like that like duplexes here a lot of people doing that Apartments, and I just want to tell all you guys one really important thing There is no better investment that you will ever make than investing in the kingdom of God So right now you guys get the envelopes and tied whatever you feel in your heart. God doesn't see how much you give He sees your sacrifice So just you guys could also give through the app hundred gen app and donate so grab your tithes and let's pray for them God father God we asked that you multiply the Multiplied this are you gonna give us God multiply what we're giving to you God help us God help us grow help us with business ideas God help us in our jobs God with promotions with raises when you job opportunities God with job security God Thank you for everything you do for us and everyone said and I think someone's gonna come up for testimonies Hello It's me I was wondering Isn't that the same one circumcised Philistine that problems to go to church what never did Yeah, but that looks like a girl version of him He looks like an easter like real homes. He looks more like a Samsonite to me Looks like a Jew homes Right now we came to a time where we wanted to dismiss our kids for there's Wednesday night So from ages from four to nine meet your teachers in the back right now before we move forward How's everyone doing tonight? There's one doing good How are the Panthers fans doing tonight? No They're not here tonight. They're making it. They're still at home Dabbing their tears away, you know, that was coming. You know, I was gonna say that That was Super Bowl the bad news for every football fan about the Super Bowl is it's the last game of the season No more Sunday night football. We're gonna have to figure out something to do Sunday nights now The good news for everyone though is that God is not seasonal God is forever and his son Jesus Christ The real MVP is coming down soon With something better than a trophy something better than a diamond ring He's coming down to give those who believe in him an opportunity to go to Heaven with them and really celebrate the real championship in paradise. Can someone say amen? Which leads me what I want to speak about tonight is the importance of sharing our faith it's really important I sharing our faith because We have to do it we have to remind ourselves to do it on a daily basis Because that's what makes a difference now We're it's not so common that we share our faith to other people. It's more common now That we share our our pictures our statuses our stories on social media And and it's so common I just want to share this quick story that that when people ask me for my for my Instagram Which I don't have one nothing against Instagram or people that use it Well, people will ask me like hey, Luis. What's your Instagram so I could follow you? I'll be like, sorry, you know, I don't have one What what do you mean? You don't have one why I? Don't know. I just don't have one right now. Maybe later. I'll give in and I'll get one. Oh All right, okay Hey, be careful with that guy, Luis. He doesn't have an Instagram. He's weird And see people think that you're weird because you don't do exactly what everyone else is doing and I mean, we're getting to a place where we're no longer gonna give make eye contact or give handshakes when we meet people We're just gonna be like, hey, bro Here's my snapchat if you want to get to know me follow me, you know And we have to make a difference in this world We have to make a difference starting now By sharing our faith because see sharing our faith is more than sharing our beliefs That God still exists sharing our faith is sharing love It's sharing hope is sharing the truth And that's what people need in order to make a difference in their life And I believe that everyone here wants to make a difference, right? Not just in your life, but in your family's life and someone else's life and For me personally, I can't express enough How big of a difference someone made in my life just simply because they shared their faith with me For those that don't know, I'll just briefly explain before I gave my life to Jesus Christ I met a guy by the name of David in the steam room at our local Gold's Gym And I was just sitting there. He just came in and he just started, you know sharing his faith with me I didn't ask him to he just started talking and we were in there for like 20 minutes I mean, he just kept talking he wouldn't shut up and I Didn't stop him because first of all, I don't want to be rude and interrupt second of all, I was really into everything that he was saying and Third of all, I was in there for so long that I felt any moment that I opened my mouth and spoke I was gonna puke everywhere. I mean, if you guys been in the steam room been there for quite a while You know, you understand me. After that, we just went outside We just gave each other's names. We shook each other's hands and went our separate ways Ever since that day, he did more than share his faith with me that night What he did is he planted and sowed a seed into my life into my heart So small but yet so powerful that I started applying His faith his acts into my life and started noticing the difference a positive difference in my life Two months later Two months later passed and I finally saw him again and I was like, hey, you know I just want to I saw him again at the gym and I was like, hey I just want to say thank you for that night for sharing with me sharing your heart out because it has made a big Difference in my life and he's like, hey, you know what if you want to know more about my faith You want to hang out and talk, you know, come to church with me. So, you know, I accepted his invitation I came on a Wednesday night just like this and that night I gave my life to Jesus My life started completely changing and the rest is history and I know that many of you here are Here tonight for the same reason for a similar a similar story Maybe you're here tonight for the first time or you already been here a couple of times I already gave your life to Jesus Christ Or maybe you've been already baptized been delivered received healing All simply because someone shared their faith with you And outside it's our turn to share our faith with someone else Because there's a lot of people out there That that need to hear it It's because faith is like I said, it's more than just sharing your beliefs that God assists is sharing Love is sharing hope and it's sharing the truth and that's what people need So are we gonna share our faith with other people with church? Are we gonna conquer this world for the kingdom of God? Amen. Amen. Without further ado help me welcome Lillia to the stage Thank you. Good evening church We have come to time to share testimonies and one of the reasons We share testimonies because here we can have a preacher preaching to you God loves you God wants to change your life But when we share a testimony, it's for you to see what exactly that means black and white when somebody comes to church And they give their life to Christ how their life changes and we have so many people in this place that Their lives were changed because they heard someone else's testimony They saw a testimony of somebody got set free from drugs while I am struggling set while I am struggling with drugs God can set me free. Amen. And so last Wednesday, we had a service and we were praying for healing a Pastor a lot was here and he said that if you have a sickness place your hand on the sick body and We will pray for healing and so right now I want to share the testimony of somebody that got healed last Wednesday So if you can help me to welcome to the front Louie So for camera purposes tell us your name and where are you from? My name is Louie Alvarado. I'm from Tri-Cities, Washington, and Louie What was the sickness or the pain that you had in your body last Wednesday? Well last Wednesday, I was I was training at boxing Practice and I was going really hard. So I was like overusing my elbow. So I ended up getting tendonitis And what is that? Tendonitis is when you get like a small tear in your tendon and it doesn't really hurt too bad But it's kind of uncomfortable and how did it since you're in boxing into boxing? How did that? affected your performance Well, I had gotten it on last Wednesday So I had to cut my my workout short and I just stopped working out because you know, it was bothering me So I just stopped and Louie, can you tell us how did you receive your healing? What happened last Wednesday night? Well last Wednesday, I came And I believe it was pastor. It was Vlad who was talking about healing and I had my friend place her place her hand on my shoulder and I just started praying about my hand also because my hand also hurt and I just started praying on it and acknowledging God and just believing in them and I just felt this warmth in this throughout my whole body, which I Don't know. I don't know how to explain it really well It's kind of like when you're like a crush when you have a crush or somebody that you like like No, no Like somebody you like like comes up to you and tells you like good things about you and you start blushing up That's how I felt like I just felt really good and start warm. Yeah Can you tell us how do you feel now? Since Wednesday now, I feel fantastic My hand which I had fractured on December. It was always irritating and everything and now it's perfect Like it doesn't hurt at all and I don't have tendinitis either. So Can you tell us what is your advice for the people that maybe have sickness or pain in their body? my advice is No matter how big or small your sickness or you know injury may be You know, just put it on God acknowledge God and you know, just lay it on to him and believe in him And he can heal you do anything to anything We thank God for your healing We are thankful if you don't know what crush is maybe this fountain is being quite you will And so a next testimony kind of got me distracted So the next testimony I want to share if you guys can help me to welcome Zach to the front, please Zach for camera purposes. Can you tell us what your name? Where are you from? Zach I'm born and I was born in Climate Falls, Oregon and raised in Pasco and can you tell us how you got invited to hunger generation and when you first came What did you think I was invited because I was on the verge of shooting myself. I had told my brother Alex So actually not my brother but my best friend. I was I've gone through a lot since past 21 years And then all he told me was come to church. What could I do? I Told them I didn't believe in it because religion has been in my life, you know Since ever I started off as a Christian and then I went to Mormonism and then Catholicism and then Buddhism and nothing's ever worked out for me, so I kind of just lost faith and That's kind of when I just fell in the pit and Zach, can you tell us when you first came to the earth service? What happened to you? I was overwhelmed Alex told me church not a concert And then no When I came I believe his name was Dan and His testimony his testimony really opened up it opened up my eyes and it showed that I wasn't the only one and With that being said, I I don't know why I felt embarrassed, but I had to rush out because I wanted to cry And so that being said Alex I took me home and I And I just sat there and I kind of took a step back and just reevaluated my life So why did you leave the service early? What happened when you at home? I cried and then I guess that I reevaluated and then he told me to pray and I didn't know how because this is all new to me So I wrote it out. I wrote all my frustrations. I wrote it out I wrote out like what I was struggling with and You know, I wrote out like the little things I was I was struggling with and you know What I wanted face just to get out the way and I prayed to him I was like if you're out there give me a sign because Two weeks prior my car broken down. So I was walking to work blistering cold, you know, and I'm already out in the cold for nine hours so and then So when you wrote it down that your car was broken you frustrated and you want and then got to fix it What happened next morning? 10 minutes until the next morning. I got out the shower. I got ready for work I was just crossing my fingers. I was like, I hope my car starts because it is freezing Next, you know one click My car is up and running Can you tell us a little bit what your life was like you before you came to church? We know that you went through many religions to find peace and maybe happiness. What else were you into? gangs drugs I Was drinking every night One of my biggest problems was pro-pop and I Tried it when I was in ninth grade. It was oxycodone and it progressed it went from one To two a day to two in the morning to two at night to four in the morning to four at night And it progressed to eight a day and then it got to the point where I wanted something stronger Why were you pill-popping? Just what I was what I went through as a kid. I was born as a without a father you know and there was a point in time where I didn't live with my mother and You know when I moved here That's when I was introduced to gangs and those were the only people that welcomed me So I thought they were my family, you know, I was picking fights and I was doing all these kinds of things And it was just a really horrible place. I really didn't see me going anywhere So that's why I kind of fell into pressure and like I was scared of the world I was always cooped up in my room. I couldn't even step out the door like Prior to coming to church I would never stand in front of people like I was I would be so nervous and nerve-wracking and Probably like having asthma attack and anxiety attack and just boot out of here. That would that would be the old me And can you tell us when you came here that Wednesday and when you give your left to Christ? What happened to you? My life took a complete 180. It's been brighter days ever since I remember After that week that first time I came I went to go right in my journal again And I didn't even realize that that list I wrote down was completely crossed off and also one big thing was my hospital bills because My mom she's sick as well. And that's always been one of my struggles and why I fell down into oppression You know, she would she had a stroke. She has back surgery. She had a back surgery. She had cancer removed a tumor removed and It was as hard So you had a hospital bill what happened to that bill and you that's one of the things that you wrote down on the list Of frustrating you what happened then it's gone 2,500 dollars. I don't have to pay You mentioned to me that you had one of the issues that you had or you were facing was in your relationships Can you my can you tell us about that? You know, I feel like women are men's greatest treasures and guys need to realize that so And then Anyways My girlfriend's parents, you know, they weren't open to the idea They didn't like it, you know, that's that's baby girl. That's their treasure and You know, I tried everything to get on their good side and you know, they didn't like me Then after coming to church praying God, I wanted his blessing in my relationship I wouldn't to move forward with her, you know, because I really loved her. I would do anything for her So that being said After I said that prayer like two three days after her parents had called her Saying that they wanted to meet me and then so this Monday We're gonna get together and have dinner and that's like heartwarming Can you tell us what is your advice maybe to people that are watching us or I'm here listening to you What is it that you want to tell them a prayer or day makes a pain go away? I promise you whatever it is. It's nothing God can overcome It's God's battle not yours. I promise you that and with with God anything is possible I just want us to remind that God is on your side that Don't ever underestimate whoever might come to your mind to if I'm to church because you have no clue What is really going on behind the scenes behind the closed doors behind when nobody's watching that they're popping eight pills a day Just to ease of their mind off out of their life Amen, and so we are so grateful and thankful for what God has done in Zach's life and many more lives to come Amen, and so with that said it helped me to welcome our pastor Vlad to the front Come on, let's put our hands together one more time It was so awesome to hear testimonies also on our slack. It's where our members kind of share their stories and Last Wednesday we prayed for a lot of people who didn't have jobs and we start hearing testimonies that within next day People start getting jobs. Those who couldn't get an interview start getting an interview There's some who start getting a new job and their old job bump the pay to keep them And so it's just amazing what God is Continuing to do in our lives when we begin to commit our lives to him because somebody say amen Let's put our hands together one more time for Jesus Christ We know that right now there's this flu season that is coming around and thank you for everyone who was praying for me I was I was sick and stuff and so and on Sunday that trip to Spokane was cancelled And all it was because of my sickness. That was all the cover-up. The real reason was Super Bowl We really wanted to see the Panthers lose and stuff and so we grateful to God for the answering of all of our prayers and stuff and so and then anyway, but With that being said the the triple will resume a lot of things happened even last week Also, some of you saw on a snapchat one of their young leaders They had some I think 25 people that show up to the Christian Club at Chihuahua high school and stuff So it's growing it's getting bigger and better. And so we give glory to God. Amen I'm hearing so much awesome reports from people being very thankful the fact that every Wednesday night now We also offer a ministry to the children what we offer specific ministry to the children And so I just want to thank every person who is bringing their children We have people who are working with them But I have a request to ask of you guys for those of you who are not participating but coming but you're not participating in Translation or maybe ushering or worship or some other things if you could offer us a service By at least once in a few months to offer to help with either Sunday school or it's a Wendy school or Nursery or something that has to do with children Especially those of you who have kids or plan to have on having children one day and stuff that you can Help with that so that we can take that ministry into another level in Jesus name. Amen And so with that said just would really really appreciate that if you can offer that This week is a week of love and we're really excited for awesome things that are happening in people's lives I believe that our church is gonna have a lot of awesome couples. Amen. We declare no to divorce But we declare yes to a lot of babies and then Hispanics and Russians combine them and you're gonna have a nation Jesus name Amen So this this little girl comes to her mother and says mom Where do we come from? And the mother says well we came from God, but then God created Adam and Eve So we came from Adam and Eve and she being smart goes to her father and says dad. Where do we come from and? He says well, there was a big bang and then the monkeys came and then we came so we came from the monkeys So she's confused She goes back to her mother says mom you told me We come from God Or my father tells me we come from the monkeys and The mother says well child. It's actually very simple. I told you about where my family came from He told you where his came from where did your family come from? My came from God did you come from God? Amen One of my healthy fears that I think God has given me and given to every person But not everybody utilizes it's the fear of heights And that fear probably came when I was in a silverwood at the panic plunge and They told me it will be fun and those of you who don't know panic plan plunge is you just thank God for your life And I remember I sat in there locked myself in and it goes really slowly a hundred forty feet high and Then there comes that click Yeah, that click and And it drops you you know, it's not fast. It's just 47 miles per hour But those 47 miles it feels like you're gonna lose your soul and you scream and you yell and you and you come out of that And I remember after that day. That's when I said from this day on No one will ever manipulate me lie to me push me make me belittle me But I'm not ever going on these kind of crazy things and but I have one of my guys here who? Who's not like me and spirit of? fear has not occupied at his life in a healthy way and he was single and Not a little bit in a crazy edge at that time of his life And so he decided to go in skydiving and actually I borrowed his video, so I'm gonna show you a little video It's just a few seconds when Just meet the video kill the audio and so This is Martin Over there with another gentleman hanging on the top of him And you have to pay actually to do this and so supposedly he's having fun his father didn't know he was doing this Yeah, because there's completely waste of time and also you can ruin your life by doing this you can lose your life and so but They said that this is fun It's interesting I want you to see that a few things that are happening here is one in order to skydive He had to had a guy on the top of him That's one of the reasons why I'm not going skydiving No guys in the top of him But the second the second secret to skydiving is that you do have to have a little balloon over there They call it parachute otherwise you will have the thrill of your life, which will last 45 seconds and will end you in a casket and Fortunately for Martin he did have the guy on the top and he also had a Parachute and because of that he landed safely and He is still here with us his legs work his voice wasn't really working today, but his legs still work and not only he survived But he actually got married after that and and everything worked out really well So for those of you who are trying to get married try skydiving It can improve your chances When God designed relationships, he designed them with a thrill inside of them God designed marriage God designed Physical bodies and God created us to be sexual beings God created us and he put thrill within our life when he designed us To have the idea that God designed us to be people who are bored and people who are not enjoying our life will not be consistent with the scriptures But with God's design as God who designed us to be the people who have this thrill in our relationships and have this, you know Crush or this warmth feeling that goes in when you fall in love and when you you know have these Adventurous things in life God designed these things to happen to us But they can happen to us just like skydiving You can have a thrill skydiving But you can also have a thrill that ends in the funeral or you can have a thrill that ends with the video All depends on will you go into that airplane with another guy and with the parachute and If you go into the airplane into skydiving without another guy and without a parachute You'll still have a thrill a lot of it Oh, no, don't ever tell people if you don't have a parachute you won't have an exciting dive They will have an exciting dive. Oh, they will It's like people who say if you don't have God in your life You will not have you know, they will not be a certain fun in life Of course, there will be a certain fun in life. There are certain fun in alcohol There's certain fun in drugs. There's certain fun in nightclubs even though it lasts little but it's still there There is a lot of fun in diving without a parachute The problem with that fun is that it's shortly quickly gets out of shadowed by the fact that when the fun comes to an end And it always does come to an end You have to lend on your feet and you can't when God designed relationships He designed them in such a way where your thrill ends without a casket Without a funeral where the thrill doesn't destroy the drill of your life We're the thrill of relationship where the thrill of that excitement doesn't destroy anything else Satan on the other hand He knows our desire for the thrill. He knows our desire for the excitement He knows our desire for infatuation for love He knows that it's God's given and what he offers to us is he offers to us the thrill He offers to us the excitement. He offers to us the infatuation All of it and he says if you go with me You will have that but the only way you can have that is if you throw away the parachute and get rid of the instructor Because the instructor will limit your fun and the parachute will slow down your fun Get rid of the parachute get rid of the instructor and dive in and you will have an awesome time He offers the thrill every single day even right now as we're sitting 30,000 people are viewing pornography $3,000 is being spent every single second Unviewing pornography The average age for a person to be exposed to pornography is no longer 14 The now is 11 the day where pornography is viewed the most in the United States is Sunday and the least It's un-thanksgiving This week state of Utah declared a health emergency Because the state of Utah the residents of that state view pornography more than any other state in the United States And today it's this week. It's been declared as a health crisis because satan offers a thrill Without a parachute and without an instructor And he makes it seems like the less of parachute you have and by getting rid of the instructor You are going to have greater and more amazing excitement and thrill a along this guy is already dead Paul Paul Hovery or Havery he was a radio personality a really famous radio talk guy and he was sharing once about these guys how Eskimos how they killed wolves And he shared a very interesting story about how they would not attack wolves directly But take a knife with a very sharp blade and cover it with a layer of blood And they would cover it with a layer of blood let the blood dry up then cover that layer again and cover that layer again Cover it for about three to five times and they would go into the woods and stick that knife into the ground and abandon that knife And because a wolf you know has a craving inside and it tastes blood from afar a wolf has this craving for A thrill for that excitement for that for that it's because excitement to him So he quickly goes in and he comes close to that knife and he begins to lick that knife And he begins to lick that knife more and more and the thrill kicks in And the excitement kicks in until licking that he's not recognizing that he's beginning to lick a warm blood And it's his own blood Because the knife that was in the ground is already in his own mouth and the wolf dies And that's exactly what the enemy uses We have a natural desire for relationships. We also have a natural desire for sex God made us into physical beings if god did not create that natural desire He would have put wings on you and he would have removed certain body parts But he placed those parts in you and didn't give you wings which means that you are a human You're not an angel and you should stop being an angel But with that said you must also understand you are not an animal An animal lives by their urges and animal doesn't have self-control. I mean, I know you've been telling your cat to do that but No self-control in their kingdom whatsoever No self-control in the dog's kingdom because they are animals. They don't have spirit you and I do And so we must understand that god created us with this natural desire And what the enemy does is he wants to give us something that looks like that and lie to us and tell us that The only really way to live the most thrilling life Is to throw away all of god's restraints Throw away god out and go and satisfy yourself and listen you will be satisfied You will have the thrill But with the funeral But with the consequences that will make the thrill Be the most regrettable thing about your life At that time it will seem like the most exciting thing But without god and without his word the most exciting things becomes the most regrettable things that eventually people testify here and say Thank god. He rescued me from that Sex is not the problem lust is You know what lust is lust is the athlete's foot It when it's Itches and you scratch it To relieve the itching and the itches more You scratch it hoping it will go away, but it only intensifies And that's what the devil's plan is and today we are here and the devil doesn't want me to talk about what i'm gonna talk about because We're gonna slap him left and right And I know some breakups might happen after this service I know some Brothers will be left and abandoned And I know some sisters will have to lean on jesus perhaps that's not my intent at all to cause breakups or I just want people to get married That's But I want people to stay happily married, but for that to happen. We must also deal with this issue We must today settle it in our relationships and before even we get into our relationships Of god's way of doing things and the god's way is not to steal your thrill The guy who was jumping with martin His goal wasn't to choke martin His goal wasn't to you didn't see a sour face on him. He didn't see this grin You know i'm mad Because martin is jumping You didn't see that you see you saw excitement the guy was ecstatic The guy was pumped Actually, he was the one recording everything so that martin can replay it and so that I can talk about it He was not there to limit his thrill He was there to make make sure he has the most thrill and when the thrill is over and it always gets over That he can help him get on his feet See god's goal is not just to help you fall in love. God wants to help you live in love You can fall in love with anybody and nowadays anything But live in love my friend that is a completely different story But to walk in love that is a completely different story and you need more than hollywood and bach bachelor Series you need jesus christ. You need the god's word. You need god's power and god's spirit You need a lot of deliverance a lot of community groups a lot of home groups and a lot of jesus Can somebody say amen? And so I want to look at one guy today who Decided to jump from the plane. Unfortunately. He didn't have an instructor. I didn't have a parachute It's in the bible and this is second samuel chapter 13. I'm not going to read that whole chapter It's this guy named amnon I'm going to call him adrenaline junkie Amnon adrenaline junkie Amnon, let me give you just a little bit of the background about amnon Amnon, he was the son of king david Everyone knows david david is like george washington of israel He's the you know thomas jefferson. He's the big guy of israel everybody knows him He's the best king and david has a kid. He has actually quite few kids But the first kid that he had his name was amnon Now david at this time is 53 years of age Amnon at this time when we read about him. He is 22 years of age And the bible tells us about this amnon It doesn't even tell us what his ambitions and his goals are because we know what his ambitions are He is the king's king's kid. You know what that means in those days? It simply means he's the next king Because the king is not a president that he has to go You know get campaigns and get everybody to vote for him his party to vote for him in those days You're a king. You got a son and your son whether he likes politics or not He becomes next king whether he has a gpa at all or he went to school Whatever he does it doesn't matter. He could be he could be mental unstable. He's going to be a king And so this guy is already a king. He doesn't even have to do anything to be a king Everything is ready for him. He just needs to wait a few more years. His dad is going to retire He will take the kingdom. He's the guy every dude in israel wish to be like He is the guy every girl in israel wish to be married to even if that would mean Sharing him with 40 other women Because as a king you owned everything You didn't get some a hundred or three hundred thousand dollar salary like a president. Your salary was everyone anybody what anybody had That's yours taxes. That was your money. I mean this guy is loaded. He has everything going for him His daddy was the man of God His daddy searched for God. He wasn't perfect, but he was after God and amnin The bible tells us about him. He starts like this. He says that amnin was in love Doesn't tell us nothing about him. Just the fact that Introduces him at 22 years of age that he falls in love And there's a problem with this love story. One is that he falls in love with tomorrow. Let me tell you about tomorrow tomorrow is 15 And tomorrow is his half sister So little complications That's where it's complicated came from Very complicated 22 years old and a 15 year old girl and he babes says he Falls in love with her and the scripture says and it was improper means it was not right for him to have her But a guy is going to be a king a king that I used to do what he needs to do and wants to do and instead of Obeying God's commandments instead of asking advice from God Instead of going into his devotional time instead of going before God and say Lord God These feelings are there, but I know your words as otherwise. Can you give me some patience and love instead of going to some mentors? Amnin he has a friend and he asks his friend what who what he should do and his friend gives him an advice Very terrible advice. Amnon follows that advice and next thing that happens is the story ends tragic I have just two points from the story that I want to leave with you One is Don't let the thrill substitute your parachute Don't let the thrill substitute Your parachute I've mentioned it before the enemy will always say that a parachute will kill your thrill If you follow God's commandments, you will miss on the fun If you live your life according to God's rules, you will miss on the excitement Therefore jump out without the parachute And hope to have the most fun you can and when you're getting to the bottom Call God To be there to pick you up because you don't want to of course have a funeral And that's what the enemy lies to us And that's exactly what this Amnon believed. He falls in love and he becomes sick And with feelings the Bible says he start losing weight. He becomes physically sick actually because he's so in love and Instead of going to God's word. He begins to see his feelings As an indication that this is right And does that which his feelings tell him even though it's contrary against the word of God And eventually he ends up making a mistake that he regrets As Christians we must understand our standard is not our feelings Our standard is the word of God As Christians we must understand Is the measuring line for us is not our infatuation Just because it feels right It doesn't make it right Just because it feels so good It doesn't make it so good Were you in love at the age of 14? Man it felt right You knew you're gonna get married to the person whose name you don't remember now But how many sleeps you missed? You lost your appetite. You were losing weight or some of you were gaining weight at that time because you were so excited And there was not one thought in your mind. This could ever go wrong. This person is perfect two weeks later You found someone else So by now being 2024 you can come to one conclusion your feelings Are not consistent They are so unreliable when a married man begins to throw an eye to another woman that is his friend Because his marriage is struggling and those feelings become so real and they so they're so strong my friend Just because it's real. It doesn't make it right And just because it feels good today. It does not mean it's good for you And that's a simple truth you have to embrace today because the devil replaces your emotions with God's word God's word holds the heaven and the earth your emotions cannot even hold one hour Without switching you have a bad day go drink coffee emotions changed You have a bad day somebody gives you 50 dollars your emotions go through the roof your emotions cannot hold anything They're like this up and down and when you begin to put your life on them instead of the word of God push the Parachute out and say no, I'm gonna go for the thrill. I don't need the parachute I don't need God's word to tell me who I should deal with. It's my life I can do it on my own my feelings my heart will lead me Well, it led you last time And it wasn't really good Today we live in a generation where love Is God Supreme court has supreme court has defined If you're in love It's right today in california People are going to court who want to marry their animals it's There are those and studies have been done already proving that there is such a thing As a healthy thing when a man an old man has an attraction for a little child Universities have done studies already proven to be right and you will see why is it wrong for them to love If it's not wrong for you to love The problem we have in our generation is we made love the standard God Is our standard as christians Love is very important. Love is very valuable But my friend if I will begin to do everything that I loved I wouldn't be here today Because I also like crispy cream donuts My stomach admires them and I get a crush Every time I look at them And yes, my I get this feeling this rush and this excitement But the problem is there is these doctors and there is these scientists who keep telling me that I shouldn't have it because it will destroy my life And so what I should do is you silence all of them and go and eat if I could I would eat crispy cream for the morning for lunch and for dinner Why do not not not do that not because I do not want that It's because I do not allow my wants to determine what's healthy for me And I look at that broccoli and I know that that thing was made somewhere close to hades But the doctors say that is what's healthy for you So therefore my feelings have to take a backseat and broccoli has to end up in my plate That's how it is with relationships. You cannot let your feelings Bake take the decision for you You can't throw the parachute out and simply live with this notion that listen if it feels right it must be right That's not how it is because somebody say man Yes, you will have the thrill But it will ruin the drill of your life It will end everything else in your life. And that's not what god wants for us Now you may say, well, it's a hundred percent right, but we You know, we shouldn't be marrying those of you know, maybe same sex We shouldn't definitely never be marrying animals. We shouldn't never be doing these things But let's leave that out for us What about those that When the word of god makes it clear for us that you shouldn't be in a relationship with someone Who doesn't share your values and your belief system But what do we do? But we're in love But he's republican But he said he'll change But i'm gonna flirt to convert it will work But i can really change him And then what we do is we make all of these excuses and we drop the parachute out and we're running for the thrill And we're not even thinking about the future because when you're in love Why do you need to think let your heart lead? And then that that thrill ends really quickly and next thing that happens is the heart is broken And next thing that happens is there's a lot of rejection and next thing that happens Is we are looking and the next thing that happens is the thrill last is so short But the pain lasts so long until now it's been years and somebody reminds you or something and the pain is still there My friend, i really want to challenge each one of you god is not out to get you fun Get that out of your head the devil is a liar God is out for you to have fun that he doesn't have to do a surgery on you afterwards God wants you to have a fun without a casket God wants you to have a fun when the thrill is over You run into the drill of your life into the routine of your life into your business into your health Into your home group that you run into that your career you run into your school You run into having a house into having a nice vehicle into having things in your life And you don't have to walk on crutches But you keep on living your life continues for the glory of god and for that to happen You have to let god's word and god's standards to determine who you date When you date and how you date Who you date When you date and how you date you may say but that's too much control Well go skydiving without a parachute and have freedom And when a guy tells you put on a pair she said too much control. I just like too tight too tight I just do not like tightness. I do not like that at pressure too much pressure Everybody telling you what to do and and this is going to hold on to me all the time No, I want to break from this at least once he will say you can have a break from this once But it's that once that could be in the place you could be in the place you do not want to be in My friend god's word is not out to take anything from you But your headache but your pain but your depression your disappointment your heartbreak unwanted pregnancies Sex or transmitted diseases a divorce disappointment death and lake of eternity in lake of fire That's what god's word is there for it wants to take the bad and give you the good that will last Is somebody say man? number two Take your instructor with you instead of trusting him to catch you Take your instructor with you on the journey Instead of trusting him to catch you emin Decides that his love is the standard Not what god has to say and so he jumps into that relationship And instead of asking god he had no relationship with god. You don't see reference to god You don't see praying you don't see invoking a priest You don't see any kind of seeking counsel and advice from the lord You see him just simply taking advice from his friend and jumping quickly into a relationship without god And that's exactly what many times we do not only we ignore god's word When we go into relationships and we suffer calamity But the second thing that a lot of young people and even people who are married that we do a mistake Is that when we do not involve god in our relationship When we have god in the universe We have god in church We have god in our wednesday service that we have god in our sunday service We have god in our home group. We have god everywhere It seems but not in our relationship We don't talk to him about our relationship. We don't involve him in our relationship and our relationship doesn't revolve around him God is a spare tire. We don't let religion get in between us. I heard people say Well, that is a completely awesome thing. You can go do it by yourself But at the same time sooner or later, you must understand life is not that long and you're not and i are not that brilliant We need an instructor and his name is god and he wants to help us not choke us and he wants to be our Advisor in life When we don't have god in our relationships three things will happen Is you will expect the other person to be god You will always make the other person to be that which is god you will expect them to be perfect Oh, and they will be perfect first few months And then you find out the breath stinks And when they back up without makeup, you didn't recognize the same person that you met on the day You recognize they have flaws They're not perfect and then your infatuation it begins to go down Because you didn't fall in love with the date you fell in love with god You thought they were god and they're not it's like that You know ladies said, you know, I was his I was his goddess and they said what happened now He said well, he became atheist When you fall in love with the goddess my friend you will quickly become an atheist because she is not god He is not god But when you don't have a god you need to find one because you were created by a god to have a god You will quickly begin to make something into a god who cannot be god You will quickly find out that your date is going to try to become your doctor Your relationship will become a rehab And marriage will become the magic pill that will fix all the problems It will make the loneliness go away. It will make the lust go away It will make all of this pain and suffering i've experienced as a child It will kill all of that because now i am married and now i am in love No one can fix all of your problems if they could god wouldn't send his son to die on the cross He will send marriage to die on the cross for you. He didn't marriage cannot fix anything That jesus doesn't fix first If you don't have a relationship with god Your relationships that you're gonna go into you will expect it to be your rehab You will try to suck literally things that only jesus christ can give you they are not the messiah You say well his name is His name is jesus His last name is not christ His name is juan not jesus His name is not jesus and he doesn't have nails Yes, he may have scars and tattoos but not nails went through his hands and through his feet And that's only one person and if you make him your god You have the privilege and the honor of going into a relationship looking at the person knowing they're not perfect Knowing they will never love you always and perfectly because somebody else already does that and they don't have to do that But they can be there for you and they can love you and you can grow in that relationship because somebody say amen If we don't have god in our relationship the second thing that happens is that not only you make someone into a god You begin to act like god Means you begin to develop a messiah complex You begin to look into people like projects You begin to say to things things like you know what i can fix them I can change them They they haven't met me yet And once they do you'll see i'll provide for them i'll cherish them i'll pick them up I've seen so many people do that thing. I will change him. He oh, he's cheating. He hasn't met me yet Just me honey His cheating is has nothing to do with women. It has to do with his character And you aren't that's just gonna continue. Oh, he's abusive Oh, he he's gonna change once he meets me and you develop this messiah complex because you don't have a messiah So you have to pretend to be one Every messiah died on a cross You will die too The only difference the real messiah came back And you won't You're not a messiah Stop being somebody's messiah Stop being somebody's cure and salvation And you can only do that if you have a savior and you come to your own realization you can't even change you Nevertheless someone else. I need god to change this man I cannot change my wife I can't even change myself But there is one who can change me and that's the holy spirit and when i get to know the holy spirit more I recognize i'm a wretchless man that only god can change even my efforts cannot change me only god's blood And the holy spirit and when i will experience that the last thing i want to do is change someone else If i fail doing it for me, i'll fail doing it for you The same that changes me is the same one that can change you and if you don't want to acknowledge him Listen, honey, we can work on this relationship, but we're not getting romantic. Why because i'm not your messiah Because somebody say man The third thing that happens when we don't have god in our relationship Is satan always offers us idiots Who gives us advice the ruins our life? You know what when emman didn't have god satan had a friend And this friend came to emman and you know what this friend told him He says lie to your daddy. Tell your daddy you're sick Tell your daddy you got fever Tell your daddy you want those pancakes that tamar makes tamar doesn't even cook But she can youtube it Tell your daddy that tamar needs to come and cook those pancakes. Okay. Okay. I'm gonna do that And then he says when she comes I want you to kick everybody out I want you to find isolation because isolation leads to temptation Always get alone when you always get alone and then you find yourself in trouble And he says I want you to get yourself in isolation and after that I want you to just do like in the movies, you know, you sign the movies, you know We're like clothes flying out and just like all this passion, you know passion, bro. It's about passion What if she doesn't like it? No when the girl says no it means yes And that's exactly what this idiot Straight from the pit of hell poisons this guy's mind and this guy has no god or relationship with him to Check this through and he's like blind sheep led to the slaughter does everything this idiot tells him to do And you know what happens he rapes her Because she said no amen. Yes According to the advice of a friend And when she tells him hey, so wins now you got me. Let's get married She says no and the bible says he started to hate her with more hate than the love that he had for her He got what he wanted now. He didn't want what he got That's the all always the story of people who fly without parachutes and instructors You get what you want and you recognize you hate what you got Two years later Amnon gets slaughtered He gets murdered by Absalom who is the brother of tomorrow And guess who's standing by david when the news comes that amnon is killed and this friend The same friend stands by david says david don't worry It's just one kid that died amnon Or you know why he died this was predetermined already actually the moment he did that thing this was already planned So this was actually part of the plan He acts like this was a coffee drink that amnon took when he got murdered this friend Was sent from the devil himself to destroy his life And that's exactly what happens to people who don't have a relationship with god so close That god is attached to you and you just don't don't fly with god when you're going through trouble You fly with god when you go through thrill When you go through excitement when things are powerful when you got the promotion you got the job somebody bless you with the car You know you finally in that time right now where you finish school and you're ready for a relationship And you got those you know that little spark flying and that time you're closer to god He's right there. He's almost like chained to you cheering you on encouraging you You're not leaving him for a second because you do not want devil to sneak an idiot in your life And listen, this is how bad friends influence us not by their advice by by their influence Word influence has three letters in it, which is very deadly. It's called flu in flu ends A flu doesn't necessarily work now You can get a flu by going you know getting a shot, but most of us do not get a flu like that Most of us get a flu by hanging out with somebody who has a flu When somebody walks with the flu they don't come into you and say hey, I have a flu be careful No, even today when people came in I said, hey, how are you doing? They said are you feeling better and I know what they're meaning You know If I still have sickness so that they can stay away from me completely acceptable And I asked them too and I said are you feeling better? Do you have a fever? No, no, I don't have a flu. Nobody comes and tells you hey, my name is lat. I have a fever No People come in and you see them coughing you see them you see them a little bit pale Do you see them not looking all right? And what you must understand at that moment is when somebody has a flu they don't advertise it But they spread it and because of flu it just spreads by coming in contact That's exactly how bad friends spread the devil the devil's kingdom in your life by being there They begin to influence your life and drinking influence your life and smoking influence your life into sexual immorality It just kind of comes on you Because you have no one connected to you to fight that off Relationship with god It's a life or death issue in the generation we live in today satan has traps set up everywhere now He will give you thrill it will be a thrill, but it will end up in a ruin Or he will set up some kind of a friend He will use your feelings as a standard to deceive you and to lie to you my friend If you think devil is interested in your well-being You've been lied to Devil is not interested in your being whatsoever. Jesus christ died to prove that he is interested in you He cares for you. He created you and he loves you. Can somebody say man? Can I ask you to bow your head and close your eyes? I want you to right now. Just kind of examine your heart. Maybe you're here in this room and And maybe you've been flying without a parachute Maybe you've rejected god's word And you've accepted your feelings of love as the standard by which you decide what's right and what's wrong Maybe you decide you look at what supreme court says and that's how you decide what's right and what's wrong And today you heard that you're understanding. You know what lord? This is I need to change that needs to change. I need to accept god's word Yes, it's old, but it's not wrong Or maybe today you don't have a relationship with jesus christ or you have that relationship where you say well I believe he exists. It's like jumping from the aeroplane and and saying well my instructor. He's on the ground He's waiting for me You have to have a relationship with god that's so close What he is connected to you every single day And god wants to give you that today Jesus christ wants to come into your heart. He wants to forgive you of your sin He wants to cleanse you. He wants to purify you and wants to give you brand new life Maybe you walked away from the lord before Maybe you see you see the thrill is gone And the drill of your life is being ruined already today is your day to make peace with god Today is your day where jesus christ wants to forgive you and not only forgive you But he wants to give you the thrill that doesn't end up in a casket But thrill that ends up in something that benefits enriches strengthens elevates your life He wants to remove bad influence and give you the influence of the holy spirit He wants to deliver you from the lies of the devil And give you the truth that will set you free If you that person who say pasola, this is me. I need to today Give my life to jesus christ. I am that person who's flying solo without a parachute and without an instructor I need to take that step Just slip up your hand and I'm gonna pray with you You're saying today. This is me. I need to take that decision Just slip up your hand. We're just gonna take a moment and pray for you that jesus will come into your heart And he will give you that kind of thank you He will give you that hope that only he can give you today and he is able He's able that's why you are here tonight. That's why we have these services is for that reason He wants to come into your life He wants to come into your heart and give you that hope and give you that life In jesus name. I'll wait for a few more seconds If you that person just slip it up. It doesn't matter what people think about you It what matters is about your relationship with jesus. What matters is that how much god loves you How much god wants to take you to another level in your life in jesus name. Thank you I want us to rise to a feat Let's come to the front Take your neighbor with you every one of us You still have 10 minutes.
