 Okay, let's pick up from where we stopped let me just put the notes on so Let's look at the nature of God's covenant with man And so we've been We know we've established the fact that God is a covenant keeping God God has the is the one who is behind the covenant Established the fact that we are partakers of his covenant. And so let's look at the nature of God's covenant right page 8 God is the initiator and the keeper of the covenant Genesis chapter 15 and verse 18 the Lord made a covenant with Abraham Right Abraham didn't make the covenant The Lord made the covenant with Abraham right God appeared as a smoking furnace and a burning lamp that passed between those two pieces Talking about when God made the covenant with Abraham Now let us consider, you know in Genesis chapter 6 and verse 18 God speaks to Abraham and he gives a whole Description of what he's going to do He says I will establish my covenant The word established means accomplish and confirm now If you've seen, you know, I'm sure most of us would have seen big colleges and universities right Well, after a couple of years or maybe if the college is doing really well And if it's you know, maybe 10 years or 15 years down the line it becomes an establishment Right, which means it is it is established Nobody can come and say hey remove this college from here Nobody can come and say this college this place is mine or this belongs to the government or this Nothing nobody can come and disrupt the world because it's an establishment. It is settled. It is confirmed Right. And so God is telling Abraham I will establish Which means to confirm to stand firm to decree to endure to uphold The covenant that I'm going to make with you I will establish it Nobody can come and say you're not part of this covenant. Nobody can come and say, you know, you're not well-educated You're not, you know, you're not tall enough. You're not Qualified enough. Nobody can say anything because God is telling Abraham. I will establish the covenant I will confirm it if anybody has a problem. They will have to deal with me It's like God is saying Abraham. I'm choosing you I will establish the covenant with you if anybody else says anything and says that, you know, you can't you know You can't be part of the covenant. I Will confirm it to them. I will stand firm for you I will uphold this covenant that I'm making for you. Now the interesting thing is Who was Abraham? He was an idle maker he You know, he was he was a gentile but God just chose him and said I'm I'm going to establish this covenant with you Genesis 17 to he says I will make my covenant between me and you The word make is to to initiate. I will I will make it. I will make it come to pass Exodus 6.5. I have remembered my covenant powerful. God is talking to Moses or he's he's he's telling the people of Israel. I have remembered my covenant And I gave my covenant to Abraham and Now you're in bondage for so many years in Egypt It looks like I've deserted you. It looks like I've forgotten you But hey Israel, I have remembered my covenant. I Will always remember it. I'm not forgotten to remember it, but I'm remembering my covenant But he's telling the people of Israel. I remembered my covenant Leviticus 2644 I will not Break my covenant with them for I am the Lord their God It looked like God had broken the covenant it looked like God had abandoned the people of Israel But in a powerful display of miracles God brings the people out of Egypt and he says I will not Break my covenant with them. I have promised to Abraham That I will make him of that his descendants. I will give them an inheritance I will bless them and I am here to fulfill that promise So what what if God what if you know Pharaoh and all these people You know did all they can to stop Israel? Remember they were fighting against God because what does God say I will establish it. I will make it come to pass I will not break it Deuteronomy 4 13 so he declared to you his covenant God declared to you and me The covenant God is declared it Now when we open the scriptures when we open the Bible and we read it Yes, it is people God has used to write the material, but it is God's word It is God's covenant written through people He has declared it for us Deuteronomy 4 31 For the Lord your God is a merciful God. He will not forsake you not destroy you Nor forget the covenant of your fathers, which he swore to them And so when we read all these scriptures We can understand that the initiative Of the covenant is taken by God And the fulfillment of the covenant he puts it into place He is absolutely committed to the covenant He's covered he's committed to it right and so even when we we as believers in the new covenant remember the same rules or the same policy the same aspects apply how We may feel God you know Maybe we are being tempted every now and then we fall into temptation we fall into sin And we feel discouraged But remember that you and I Are part of God's covenant So we can always go back to God and say God In by your blood You said that my sins are forgiven You have washed my my sins away And this is your covenant that you have given to us So you and I can stand and say God Help me To receive the blessings of your covenant Help me to walk in obedience to walk in love Now the wrong thing to do Would be to say you know God has never helped me Or I've seen I'm at a dead end And so many times now especially now in these seasons we're seeing Many people abandoning the faith Because few of their prayers are not answered Remember Abraham God told Abraham I'll make you the father of many nations He didn't become when he was 75 Abraham didn't say okay. It's five years. Let's close this whole thing. Let's let's go back to doing what Doing the things that we were doing. No, he said no, no God is a God who keeps his covenant He had faith. He had faith till the end even though his body was varying away He had faith till the end Right and so Even in our lives remember Our partakers as partakers of the new covenant God is the initiator of the covenant I love that verse. It says While we were yet sinners Christ died for us Amen While we were yet sinners Christ died for us. So it was not like God was waiting for us Okay, let the let people become better. Let them, you know Turn away from their sins and then I'll come into this world now So while we were yet sinners Christ died for us So the initiative is from God Whether it's the old covenant whether it's the new covenant the initiation is from God Now God has initiated it to man enters into God's covenant So read Deuteronomy chapter 29 and verse 12. Yes, one of us. Please read that Deuteronomy 29 and 12 It's on the notes if you can just probably read that what's on the notes Deuteronomy 29 verse 12 that you may enter into covenant with the Lord your God and onto his oath Which the Lord your God makes you makes with you today. Amen That you may enter into the covenant with the Lord your God Right now. Here's the thing. God is giving you the choice. God is giving me the choice It's a choice. God is not enforcing it upon us He's saying that you may enter the covenant and in Deuteronomy the people Probably heard about Abraham. They knew about Abraham. They knew about the covenant But they were not yet ready to enter the covenant They were not yet willing to say, okay I'm part of the Abrahamic covenant or I'm part of what God did through Abraham You know, maybe they were not willing to enter yet But the word here says we may enter into the covenant. It is our responsibility Right Some translation says join ourselves The Hebrew word is lava, which means to twine To unite to hold tight to cleave to the covenant Right, so God offers us this covenant And we make the choice to enter into God's covenant When we do so, we are joining ourselves with the Lord Himself Right Remember when we partake in the Lord's table, we'll talk about different covenants as well as the class goes on But remember the Lord's table when we partake in the Lord's table We are partaking in his death his burial and his resurrection We are partaking in him Why is it so powerful? The Lord Jesus died 2000 odd years ago He did this, you know, he took the bread to just a regular meal But We when we when we do it with an understanding that we are part of this new covenant What God has initiated we are entering into that covenant And we do it with that understanding His power his resurrection his life flows in and through us Why? Because we are partaking in his covenant That he has given us We enter in and we are joined together with the almighty God in the everlasting covenant We join together Now picture this We're far away from God living in sin And God chooses to draw us back to him We enter he gives us a covenant we enter into that covenant And we are with him eternally even when we look at You know The things to come Eschatology and the end times We are going to be with him What a beautiful covenant Third one As every covenant There are blessings. There are curses Right once we are in covenant with God we are we are obeying his Word we are obeying his precepts obedient to his instructions And we love him with all our heart mind and soul We are part of his covenant blessings Let's read exodus 19 and verse 5 Exodus 19 and 5. Yes Now therefore if you will indeed obey my voice and keep my covenant Then you shall be a special treasure to me above all people For all the earth is mine Amen, thank you john If you indeed will obey my voice and keep my covenant then you will be a special treasure to me So God is saying when you obey this covenant You will be blessed Deuteronomy 28, which we most often read You know pronounces blessings and curses of the covenant When you follow the covenant, I will bless you. I will keep you. I will I will increase you You will be the head and not the tail you will give you will not borrow Your light will shine over people Deuteronomy 28 talks about this wonderful Blessings you shall be your children shall be like olive shoots Your your your basket shall overflow all these wonderful blessings But then by violating God's instruction, there will be curses now Why why why will they be curses because We are forfeiting ourselves from the covenant and we are saying god I don't want anything to do with you and the enemy Comes in and begins to work his work and then what does he do the enemy only comes to bring curses into our lives and so It is our choice And we are in the in the covenant We we we receive the blessings We enjoy the covenants even as we Obey him, but if we choose to go away from the covenant god is not going to you know Hold us there or forcefully make us stay in the covenant. He's going to let us go But by doing so we have turned away from the god the creator of the heaven and the earth And we are calling upon curses upon our lives Right now one of the question that some sometimes people ask is you know people who are christians they they become atheists or they You know they they don't believe in god anymore Their lives seem all right They have a wife they have children They're probably living better lives than us who believe in the lord jesus They have everything they have a good house a good Car a good job everything that it is I could help Everything's all right. So so what's the difference? I mean, I'm in the covenant. He's not in the covenant, but he was in the covenant. He's not in the covenant now And everything is all right with him, but for me Maybe everything's all right. Maybe everything is not yet. You know, I I don't have the blessings that he has Now remember that when god establishes a covenant, it's an eternal covenant Right, it's not only to do with material blessings. It's not only to do with the things In this world Right when in the new covenant, we are You know, we are co-heirs with christ Jesus with christ jesus, we are his his children and we will continue to be his children Even after death right in the sense that We will be with the lord jesus. We will be with god We have our sins are forgiven. We have eternal life So it's not only about, you know, the blessings of you know, receiving healing and deliverance all that is important But it's also an eternal reward. I love what paul says paul writes to timothy He's writing to him and he's saying But listen timothy, I've I've done everything I could For the ministry I've done I've given my body. I've beaten my body. I've been shipwrecked. I've been Gone without food. I've been three days on the sea. I've been beaten by rods and Uh, I've been in prison many times. I've stayed without food. I've gone through all of these troubles Was paul part of the covenant Of course, he was part of the covenant But he was going through all of this. But what does he say to timothy? He says I'm not fighting for a crown that Will rust in a couple of years He says I'm I'm fighting this race because there's an eternal crown Waiting for me in heaven and that is the bigger reward of being in covenant with god right So don't compare You know, sometimes we may think okay. Why is it that they have everything I being in the covenant? I don't have it or what they have don't compare Your life to their life. Yes, we pray we see god But the bigger picture is you and I have an eternal reward Uh, to be with the lord jesus right fourth one God does not permit dual commitments Exeter study for 14 for you shall worship no other god for the lord whose name is jealous is a jealous god Right God is loyal. He is faithful And so he expects us to also be faithful Right. We can sit on the fence and say, you know Saturday Sunday, I will go to the holy side And Monday to Friday, I'll jump on the unholy side because I'll be in office You can't do that Right. Well, if we do that We are, you know, having dual commitments And god is a god who's, you know, very particular about his covenant. He's a jealous god How can how can we, you know, please the enemy and also please god So it's very important that we choose one right I love the book of Joshua 24 15 Joshua says it so wonderfully. We have it on our dope posts Choose this day whom you're going to serve And but as for me and my house, we will serve the lord It was a choice because they were going into the promised land They've entered almost entered the promised land Joshua is telling the people of Israel now listen I've been with moses I've seen all the things that your people did I've then I've we we brought you into the promised land We went through many difficulties challenges. God was there with us now. There are the amylokites You choose this day whom you are going to serve I'm not going to choose it for you. He tells the people of Israel you choose it You have seen God's wonderful hand. You have seen God's miraculous hand He has promised to Abraham. I will bring you into your own land A land that you will have flowing with milk and honey I've we've brought you into this land now you choose this day whom you're going to serve You want to serve the gods of the amylokites the god of Egypt and the god of the Moabites go ahead But here's the thing as for me and my house We will serve the lord God does not permit dual commitments You can't have two Covenants one with the enemy And one with God There's the thing Sometimes we hear of people who Probably believers And they abandon everything They say there's no God How do they do that? Because somewhere along the line They have climbed up the fence and sat on the fence And said okay I can be here I can be there also no problem I can do this and that no problem And somehow the enemy has overpowered them And they've fallen into the wrong side of the commitment to into the enemy's hand Failure to maintain that relationship with God Failure to maintain and obey blood covenants Jeremiah 34 has this description he talks about what happens when we don't Obey the covenant that God has given us Right so four important points there Let's look at it The nature of God's covenant One God is the initiator of the covenant He keeps the covenant Two is Man enters the covenant We enter into it It's our choice And when we enter into it there are blessings There are curses And four God does not permit dual commitments He is a jealous God Right any questions any thoughts before we go into five important covenants Any questions Shall we go ahead Yes everyone okay is it Able to track along Less faster All right Okay thank you yes Okay let's go into five important covenants Now there are plenty of covenants that God has made in the Old Testament But let's just look at five Covenants both in the new old and the New Testament And look at the nature the aspects of that covenant First one is the covenant with Noah Right Genesis chapter 6 and verse 18 But I will establish my covenant with you And you shall go into the ark you and your sons Your wife and your sons wives with you Right now we know what happened here God sends a flood Destroys the whole earth Everything is destroyed And let's read Genesis 9 Just read a few verses not the entire scripture Verse 12 onwards And God said This is a sign of the covenant Which I make between me and you And every living creature that is with you For perpetual generations I set my rainbow in the cloud And it shall be us for you For the sign of the covenant Between me and the earth It shall be when I bring a cloud over the earth That the rainbow shall be seen In the cloud And I will remember my covenant Which is between me and you And every living creature of all flesh The water shall never again become a flood To destroy all flesh The rainbow shall be in the cloud And I will look on it To remember the everlasting covenant Between God and every living creature All flesh that is on the earth And God said to Noah This is the sign of the covenant Which I have established Between me and all flesh That is on the earth Now God has taken this extreme step Of you know Destroying everyone on the face of the earth He tells Noah Make an arc Take your wife Take your children The children's wife And we know the story The flood comes in And destroys everything And God ends that whole You know Conversation and he says This is a sign I will put a rainbow In the cloud And whenever That rainbow comes I will remember the covenant That I have made with you I will remember that covenant Right The covenant That I will never destroy all flesh So here we see that God has made A covenant here with Noah So when we see a rainbow What is the first thing that comes to our mind? Mercy Mercy God's mercy Upon you know The family of Noah It's a covenant sign You know The rainbow Right now you know Many people use the rainbow as different You know Different They have different interpretations of it But as believers The first thing that comes to our mind Must be God He made a covenant with Noah That he will never destroy Does that covenant still stand? Yes Yes promised He will never destroy it yet You know When we read in the New Testament The Lord Jesus is seated Revelations I think it was Revelations 5 The Lord Jesus is seated on his throne And there are 24 elders The angels are all singing And there's a rainbow over him The rainbow is a sign of mercy Right now The Lord Jesus You'll learn in eschatology as well The end times Right now the Lord Jesus is seated On his throne of mercy But there'll come a time In the great white throne judgment The 24 elders are gone There's no rainbow There's no mercy at that time Right now The Lord Jesus is seated on his throne of mercy Maybe You know You can picture this This is the covenant This rainbow It's a covenant I made with Noah So It was a covenant of mercy Second one The covenant with Abraham We all know this covenant Genesis 15 and verse 18 On the same day the Lord made a covenant with Abraham Saying to your descendants I have given this land From the river of Egypt To the great river The river Euphrates Right and then in Genesis 17 1 to 14 You know God tells Abraham About the covenant Right which we just read My covenant will be with you No longer your name shall be called Abraham But your name shall be Abraham You'll be the father of many nations I will make you exceedingly fruitful I will make you the nations I will make nations of you King shall come before you I will establish my covenant And you and your descendants will be greater you I will take you to a land And in that land will be a blessed land Because you will be in that land And then God tells Abraham about circumcision He said it was 11 onwards He says Sorry it was 10 This is my covenant which you shall keep Between me and your descendants After you every male child Among you shall be circumcised And you shall be circumcised In the flesh of your foreskins And it shall be a sign of the covenant Between me and you He who is eight days old Among you shall be circumcised Every male child in your generations He who is born in your house Or bought with money from Any foreigner who is not your descendant He who is born in your house And he who is bought with your money Must be circumcised And my covenant shall be in your flesh For an everlasting covenant And the uncircumcised male child Who is not circumcised In the flesh of the foreskins That person shall be cut off from his people He has broken my covenant So now God is telling Abraham I have made a covenant with you That you will be the father of many nations You will be blessed I will exceedingly Bless the land that you are living in Now what is the sign That you are partaking of this covenant There should be a sign Now for Noah There was a sign There was a rainbow So Abraham what is the sign I don't want to just give my words Even though God could have said My word is settled But God wanted to give a sign He said okay Those who are circumcised Male The reason it's male is so that The male being the head of the family It just continues on with the entire family So every male From eight days old You'll be circumcised You are partaking of the covenant That I'm giving you Partaking of the Abrahamic covenant Even so Up to the time of our Lord Jesus Christ People were getting circumcised Now here's the disadvantage Here's the problem that happened Remember John the Baptist came And he says You know God can raise up Abraham's from these stones You know what the people of Israel did They thought They just have to do the sign Follow the sign And the other things will be all right So they said I need to get circumcised And if I get circumcised I'm part of God's kingdom Yet they forgot the part where Abraham was obedient to God They waited Abraham was faithful So when the time came up to the Lord Jesus' time 400 years of silence It became a ritual So remember dual commitments The people of Israel were living in sin They were circumcised But they were living in sin So what has God to do now? They are circumcised They're saying okay We are part of Abraham's blessings We are part of Abraham Abraham is our forefather He told us to get You know circumcised We are circumcised now And after circumcision They're living the most horrendous lives Completely in sin God is saying That's not the point of the covenant The point of the covenant The point of being circumcised Is to have a relationship with me Is to understand that This relationship that I made with Abraham Is also a relationship that I want to follow That I expect you to obey But they had lost the point That is why the Apostle Paul writing to the Galatians He says You Galatians You were running the race well Now all of a sudden you've gone into circumcision Because They in the old the people Before the Lord Jesus Christ died They were doing the same thing They were getting circumcised But they were living in sin And so Paul was very upset Yet here in this portion God is telling Abraham When you circumcise the people Make tell them That they are part of the covenant But again Just because they're part of the covenant Does not mean everything this comes in Just like that We are to obey that covenant What about the third covenant Covenant with Moses and Israel Exodus 34 27 and 28 Yes, could one of us please read this Exodus 34 27 and 28 Then the Lord said to Moses Write these words For according to the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with you And with Israel So he was there with the Lord 40 days and 40 nights He neither ate bread nor drank water And he wrote on the tablets The words of the covenant The ten commandments Amen Deuteronomy 4 13 Thank you Rosalind Deuteronomy 4 13 So he declared to you his covenant Which he commanded you to perform The ten commandments And he wrote them on two tablets Now this is one of the most You know Amazing encounter that Moses had Where he comes down He goes up that mountain 40 days without any food Without any water He's there in the presence of God And God tells Moses Moses I made a covenant with Abraham That I will bless this nation Probably God is You know explaining the whole thing To Moses We don't know what happened on that mountain But he was in the presence of God And God may have written down this law And he said Even though these people are in covenant They have lost their way of Understanding the covenant Of following the covenant Of being obedient to the covenant So Moses what I'm going to do is I'm going to give you ten commandments These commandments Ask the people to follow it Right And so Moses comes down With those commandments And all And then we see that The people of Israel You know When Moses was coming down that mountain They said Please cover your face Moses For the glory of God shines upon you It was a covenant It was an old covenant How much more Is the new covenant God made a covenant with Moses and Israel And the Lord Jesus when he came He says I'm not come to abolish the covenant But I've come to fulfill the covenant You sum up all those ten commandments And all those laws and Commandments of the old covenant The Lord Jesus says I'll sum it up into one thing Love the Lord your God Love the Lord your God Love your neighbor as yourself That's it Once you do this One thing You will have accomplished all of those laws But God made this covenant With Moses and Israel Fourth covenant The covenant that God made With David Let's read Second chronicles 13 and verse 5 Yes, one of us please read Should you not know that the Lord God of Israel gave The dominion over Israel to David forever To him and his sons by a covenant of salt Let's read even second chronicles 21 7 Yet the Lord would not destroy the house of David Because of the covenant that he had made with David And since he had promised to give a lamp to him And to his sons forever Right, thank you, John So both these scriptures Talk about prefiguring in the sense that it talks about now at the current time when During that time when David was there and it also talks about the future Right So Should you not know that the Lord God of Israel gave dominion over Israel To David forever Now it's talking about King David And also talking about Jesus Christ the seed of David Right, so that's it's prefiguring prefiguring It's called it's for both Right Isaiah 11 10 says And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse Who shall stand as a banner to the people For the Gentiles shall seek him And his resting place shall be glorious Here God is making a covenant with David and he's saying David you may be a little shepherd boy You may be You know just a quiet person The most inferior among all your brothers You may be a nobody in your own eyes But here's what I'm going to do I'm going to make a covenant with you That out of the root of Jesse out of your father Out of Out of you out of your descendants shall come the son of the living God And the Gentiles shall call upon him shall seek him Isaiah 55 3 Incline your year and come to me Here and your soul shall live And I will make an everlasting covenant with you The sure mercies of David Jeremiah 33 21 Then my covenant may also be broken with David my servant So that he shall not have a son to reign on his throne And with the Levites the priests my ministers So God is saying to David David Right now you're the king of Israel There'll come a time when the true king Will come from your descendant And this covenant I am making with you It's going to be from your seed From your generation He is going to come So what a wonderful testimony Maybe at that time David may have thought what's happening here I'm the king of Israel Which other king is going to come Maybe he thought of that Maybe he maybe he understood it Right Maybe he understood that God is talking about the future And he writes in the Psalms In many places he writes My soul longs to see the coming of the king And so yes God has made a covenant with David And he established that covenant And we see that also Through the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ Right The fifth covenant Covenant with a new creation That is with the Lord Jesus Christ Efficiency chapter 2 was 11 to 16 Can one of us please read this entire portion Efficiency to 11 to 16 Therefore remember that once You once gemtiles in the flesh Who are called and circumcision by what Is called a circumcision Made in the flesh by hands That at the time you were without Christ Being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel And strangers from the covenants of promise Having no hope and without God in the world But now in Christ Jesus You who once were far off Have been brought here by the blood of Christ For he himself is our peace Who has made both ones And has broken down the middle wall of separation Having abolished in his flesh the enmity That is the law of commandments contained in ordinances So as to create in himself one new man From the two thus making peace And that he might reconcile them both to God In one body through the cross Thereby putting to death the enmity Amen, thank you John What a wonderful final covenant The Lord God did for each one of us We saw the Abrahamic covenant We saw the Noah covenant We saw the Davidic covenant And we saw the covenant God made with Moses The final covenant A covenant that is written in each of our hearts We were once far away from Christ What does the scripture say here Verse 13 But now in Christ Jesus You who were once far away Have been brought near By the blood of Christ For he himself is our peace Who has made both one Has broken the middle wall of separation Remember that in the old covenant The people would the high priest What would they do the people of Israel also They would bring their offerings They would cut a lamb They would shed the blood What does that blood do The blood would cover the sins It's like the high priest will pray and say Oh God cover his sins Don't look at this person's sins Or don't look at my sins Let this blood cover that sins It is a physical representation Of what the Lord Jesus did Where when he gave his life He shed his blood This time it was not a covering of sins It was forgiveness of sins This time the blood that was shed Was not the blood of lambs and goats and calf But the blood of the sinless one The Son of God And this new covenant What happened It's an everlasting covenant So nobody can break this covenant Whether we When we are partakers of it Whether we follow it If we don't follow it Obviously we're going to be turned away But if we follow it This is an everlasting covenant We were once far away from Christ But Christ drew us near together By his eternal sacrifice What is verse 15 say Having abolished in his flesh the enmity And the law of the commandments So as to create himself the one new man From the two That's making peace Having abolished the flesh Meaning now We don't have to go and get circumcised We don't have to You know You know in the Noah's covenant The Abrahamic covenant It was circumcision Was like a sign In Noah's covenant The rainbow was the sign The Moses The sign was You know the Ten Commandments The covenant But in this covenant It's a new heart A new man It is not a physical You know something that we can Do But it's something that we become in ourselves Right Once we become a believer There's no sign There's no physical sign You know we may have the baptism certificate and all But it doesn't really matter What matters is Second Corinthians 5 17 If anyone isn't Christ He is a new creation He's a new man A new covenant that is written In each of our hearts And so What a wonderful testimony You and I have You know we're not partakers We're not like in the old covenant You know Waiting for sins to be washed away or Doing all these sacrifices Getting circumcised Not required What God has done is He's made that covenant More than physical representations He's made it a covenant that is eternal That is spiritual That changes our inner man itself And so it's such a joy You know when we are partakers of this covenant We follow We've we accomplish Or we fulfill all the covenants in the old As we are partaking in this new covenant So with this we'll come to a close on chapter one I just want to encourage you to If you find time Do take some time just read it You know there's a lot of material there But I want to encourage you to Walk out of this identity That we are walking in this new covenant With Christ Jesus That we're no longer slaves No longer in bondage But we're set free By the blood of Christ Let's close in prayer Maybe one of us can Close in prayer Jeffena or Silatoli Any one of you Can please close in prayer Please go ahead Thank you Lord Jesus Hallelujah Wonderful God we thank you Lord
