 Okay, so here we go. I just want to read a couple of verses, one from Matthew chapter 17 and verse 14 onwards that incident is about this person, the father and the child and the son actually and then they come and the father says, you know, I brought my son to your disciples but they could not cast out the demon that was troubling. So can you please help? And the Lord Jesus does that, He rebuked the demon and then it goes out of him and the child is set free. Then the disciples in verse 19, okay, so we are reading Matthew 17 and verse 19, then the disciples came to Jesus and privately and said, why could we not cast it out? Okay, so they are asking, why could we not do it? You did it with a word. Then so Jesus says to them, because of your unbelief, you know, verse 20, because of your unbelief, for assuredly I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, move from here to there and it will move, nothing will be impossible for you and so on. And then verse 21 it says, however this kind does not go up except by prayer and fasting. So he's talking to them and he says, he answers the question which the disciples ask, you know, why could we not cast it out? And he says, it's because of your unbelief and then he again talks about, you know, this kind does not go out. People have said that, you know, he's referring to maybe a kind of demons, but that doesn't really make sense because he's given us the authority to cast out. And the only conclusion is maybe he's referring to the unbelief, right? This kind of unbelief that needs to dealt with, that needs to be dealt with in our own lives. So the disciples, you know, if you look at it, they were actually doing a lot of ministry, the kind of ministry that Jesus did, they were actually doing it. But however, you know, when it came to this particular situation, they could not and the Lord says it was because of their unbelief. So one wonders, right? So disciples had a kind of unbelief that they themselves did not realize, right? They didn't realize that they had unbelief. And so the Lord says, you know, this needs to be dealt with, this kind of unbelief needs to be dealt with. If you look at Mark chapter 9 and verse 23, Mark 9 and verse 23, right? So the 23, I think, yeah, 23, Jesus says, if you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes. So verse 24, again, it deals with the father and some condition to do with the child being held bondage, a deliverance kind of a situation, a need for deliverance. So verse 24, immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, Lord, I believe, help my unbelief. He says, I believe, but Lord, you know, help my unbelief. So he says, you know, I do believe, but there seems to be a kind of unbelief that needs to be dealt with in my own life. So maybe we could be in a place where saying that, you know, I do believe, but I do sense a kind of unbelief in certain areas when it comes to certain things. I'm able to trust God. I'm able to have faith in the Lord for, you know, maybe, you know, one, two, three, four, five, but when it comes to six, seven, eight, I have a problem. You know, there's a sense of unbelief, right? And that kind of unbelief, maybe we are unaware of. And, you know, only when we face the severity of the situation, we realize that, hey, I'm struggling with this kind of unbelief. I'm not able to trust the Lord in these matters, right? Only when we face the challenges, we realize. Sometimes it is, you know, we know that there is an unbelief in that area because maybe it was because of past experience, which means that, which means that because of a past experience, which, you know, because of which we are discouraged, maybe certain things were not answered the way we expected, or maybe there was no breakthrough in certain areas. And we're saying, you know, in this area, there is, you know, that sense of unbelief that I'm not able to trust God with this, right? So, yeah, so whatever it is, you know, we can pray that prayer that can be a starting point, you know, saying the Lord, I believe, but Lord help my unbelief. I do believe, help my unbelief. And we can, and as the Holy Spirit gives us an understanding of what that area is, you know, we can deal with it. We can deal with that unbelief. Deal with it by fasting and praying. Deal with that area of unbelief by building ourselves on the most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit. And we can build ourselves in that area and deal with that unbelief by sowing seeds of the Word of God, sowing the seed of the Word of God and expecting the seed of the Word to bear fruit. And there will be a rich harvest, right? So whatever be that unbelief, whatever be that area where we are struggling, take the Word and intentionally, you know, meditate, believe. You know, get an understanding. And so the Word of God is sown in our hearts so that we can confess the Word and we can walk in freedom and walk in faith, right? So let's pray. Okay. Father, we come before you and like that Father prayed, Lord, we just want to pray that prayer, Lord, and certain areas of our life, Lord, we need God deliverance from that unbelief. And so we say, oh God, we believe, but help our unbelief, Lord. And Master, Lord, we ask that you would show us all those areas where we need to, Lord, grow more in faith, where we need to trust in you, Lord, wholeheartedly. And whatever be our experience of the past, Lord, we choose to leave it in the past and not affect our today and our tomorrow. Father God, we come before you today and we ask, Lord, that you would, Lord, there be an impartation of your Word, impartation of revelation of your Word, Lord. And yes, Father God, we pray that may your Word be sown in our hearts, Lord, and may our hearts, Lord, receive, oh God, your Word. And may the Lord may it be watered and may it be nurtured, Lord, to bear fruit, Lord. Yes, Father God, we thank you. Lord, may we grow and increase in faith and be strong in faith and deal with all kinds of unbelief, Lord. In Jesus' matchless name, we pray. Amen. Okay. Okay, so we were learning, we were looking at chapter six, right? And then we looked at, you know, some of the problem passages in the Word. So those two passages that I think Prince mentioned, we'll come back to it. And I think also Nina mentioned, Nina Santhosh mentioned about from 1 Timothy, right? So we'll come back to it. We'll kind of spend some time on it. But today we'll, let's look at chapter seven. Let me just share that screen. Okay, let's look at chapter seven, which gives us an insight into how the Lord Jesus ministered. Okay, so we, you know, some things to consider as the Lord ministered during His earthly ministry, how He ministered. Some things to consider is that, well, the Lord Jesus, He walked in sonship glory. Okay, so that's number one. So it means that, well, He was the pre-existent one in the beginning was the Word, and the Word became flesh and dwelt in us. But when He walked on the earth, He walked in the glory, sonship glory. Which means He walked not in that glory that He had before He, you know, the world was. And we know that He created His eternal one. But He, on the earth, He walked in sonship glory. We studied that, right? And that was by the power of the Holy Spirit. How God anointed Him with the Holy Spirit and with power, and He went about doing good. Okay, so the ministry that He did, He went by the, He did by the power of the Holy Spirit. And the Bible talks about how He went about doing good and destroying every work of the enemy. Okay, so that is something that we need to consider. Right, and secondly, the Lord Jesus said, He who believes in me will do the works that I do and greater works. And this is again linked to the anointing, the presence and power of the Holy Spirit in a person's life. Right, so the Lord says that I go so that I send the promise of the Father, the Holy Spirit, who will be with you forever. Right, and so His ministry, when He ministered the word, was by the power of the Holy Spirit. Okay, so that same ministry is available or the way He ministered is available for each one of us. So when we study how the Lord Jesus ministered the word, for us it is not just to say, wow, He ministered in such a way. But it's also to say, you know, look at ourselves and say, okay, this is something that the Lord made possible for me, for us to walk in. Right, because of the promise of the Father who is in dwells me and because of who I am in Christ Jesus that I'm one spirit with Him and the Spirit of the Living God in dwells me. Right, so and I have access to the rich resources of the word who again in dwells me. Right, so with that let's look at how the Lord Jesus ministered. Okay, the first thing that we see is that what we see in Isaiah 50, which is again a prophetic scripture referring to the Lord Jesus. It says, the Lord God has given me the tongue of the learned that I should know how to speak a word in season to Him who was weary. He awakens me morning by morning. He awakens my ear to hear as the learned. The Lord God has opened my ear and I was not rebellious nor did I turn away. Right, if you notice verse four it says that I should know how to speak a word in season. Okay, a word in season meaning a word just in time. Okay, you know when we look at seasons, you know, typically when we look at, you know, maybe agriculture. There's a season for sowing and there's a season or a time for reaping. Right, so and also when we look at the weather we know that, okay, this month is this is a season. You know, it's a season when it is cold or it's a season when it's raining. It's a season when it's sunny. It's very hot. So a season, a time, a time frame. So the Lord, it says here that I should know how to speak a word in season. Okay, so for us, the same thing that is available. The Lord Jesus, the way he spoke the word in season. He spoke a word, whenever he ministered, he spoke, he brought the scripture as a word in season. Okay, for example, if you look at that time when he was going to jail as his house and his daughter was unwell and there comes news. What is the news that his daughter is, has passed away? Like his daughter is dead. The Lord immediately turns to Jairus and he says, and he gives this word. Just prompt, it was right there and I'm sure it meant a lot to Jairus. Here comes the word saying, don't trouble the master for your child is dead. And then here comes the word, timely prompt from the master. And he says, do not be afraid, only believe. Don't be afraid, only believe. So it was a very timely word. It was like a command. So saying, just believe that word to Jairus and then we know what happened after that. Similarly, he spoke, whenever he spoke, he spoke out of revelation. He spoke out of understanding that came from the Father. Next thing that we're going to see, it was a timely word. It was a word in season. And what is a word in season? It's a word that is required, that is needed for the people at that time. So in that season, that is the word that is needed. People are in need. People want that. It's a word that is able to bring them out of despair and bring hope. It's a word that is able to move them into action, whatever could be the scenario. It was a word in season. So we know that the prophetic word, the prophetic ministry is available for us today. The word as inspired by the Holy Spirit. The beautiful thing about it is that sometimes we are well aware. The Lord prepares us. The Lord gives us. And we are well aware. This is what I'm supposed to bring. Or this is what I'm supposed to speak. And definitely it's going to find its mark. So many other times, it's a word that is quickened to us. And because it bubbles up out of our heart, or it is something that the Lord has been speaking to us recently, we speak it out. And in hindsight, we find out. We share it, we go. And the person responds or gets back with a feedback saying that what you said, what you shared, that was just appropriate. That is exactly what I needed. In hindsight, we realize that it was a timely word. So whatever it is, right? So whether it is when we knew intentionally that that was it, that is it, that was required, or in hindsight, it's a timely word. So this word in season is something, the ministry of word is season, something very, very important. And the Lord Jesus did that. And so it is available, that kind of a ministry is available for all of us. So that is something that we can pursue. That is something that we can pray for and receive and walk in. A timely word. Second thing is closely tied to that. He spoke what he heard the Father speak. Look at John chapter 8, verse 26, 28. This is what we see verse 26. I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but he who sent me is true. In the world, those things which I heard from him, they did not understand that he spoke to them of the Father. Then Jesus said to them, when you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, that I do nothing of myself. But as my Father taught me, I speak these things. So the things that we learn here, the Lord Jesus spoke as he heard the Father speak to him. So you know that he said I am the Father I won. And we know that our God is a train on God. And there is community, there is fellowship within the Trinity. Something that is mysterious, something that we sometimes we find it difficult to really comprehend. As finite beings. But this is something that the Lord says, that he who sent me is true and I speak to the world, the things that I heard from him. So that was an ongoing thing. He heard, he spoke. He received, he gave. And that was again made possible by the ministry of the Holy Spirit, by the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Where you receive what the Father has. We receive those treasures of revelation. We receive from God. Okay. And you know, if you look at verse 28, he says that as my Father taught me, I speak these things as my Father taught me. So to remain teachable, to be expectant and to be in that place saying, okay, God does not hold back and God wants to teach. Okay, God will teach me some things that are very simple and yet very impactful. He will also teach me some things that are deep and profound, that I has not seen, he has not heard. The Holy Spirit, he will teach, he will show, you know, to be expectant of that. To say that, yes, the Lord does want to teach. So it requires time and fellowship. It requires for me to be in that place, just like how you're all logged in. It requires me to log in. And you yourself know that you can't log in and just because I don't see you, you can't be doing other things like if you really want to hear and receive. So the thing is that, yeah, it's not important, it's not enough for me to just be logged in but also to receive. So that's the thing. So the Lord is saying that what we understand that he wasn't that constant fellowship. He was in constant communion. He was in constant conversation and he was receiving and he was doing. He was receiving and he was speaking. He was watching and he was doing. So he was constantly being taught by the Father. So this privilege is available for us. We need to be confident. Sometimes we count ourselves unworthy. We count ourselves disqualified. But this privilege is for us all the believers. Every believer has this privilege to be taught. So to receive. And the Holy Spirit leads us. The Holy Spirit guides us into all truth. The Holy Spirit takes us to the presence of God, the presence of the Father. And this is something that is available for us. John 7, verse 16, Jesus answered and said to them, My doctrine is not mine but his who sent me. So the teaching, the mysteries, the truth that is there, which is really something profound, something that was even in Paul's life, things that were not, that was hidden. Mysteries, things that were hidden for us to find. Mysteries, things that were hidden for us to discover. So not hidden so that we will never find. But things that were revealed as God intended for us to seek and find. So the Lord is saying that my doctrine is not mine but his who sent me. So Paul talks about that. And he says in that scripture, 1 Corinthians chapter 1, or is it chapter 2? Just one second. Let me just read that. 1 Corinthians chapter 2 and verses 9 and 10. But as it is written, I has not seen, nor hear, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love him. But God has revealed them to us through his spirit. For the spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. He's saying things that has not been received, not available for the natural senses, things that even has not come into the heart of man. But God chooses to reveal. So that's the heart of God. He desires for us to know. He desires for us to walk in that revelation. So God chooses to reveal that by the Holy Spirit. So that's something that we see. What else? How else did he speak? How else did he minister? It says in John chapter 7, we read about that incident where people are sent, the gods are sent to actually arrest him. Let's turn to John chapter 7. And maybe we can read a few verses before that. Maybe verse 42 onwards. Verse 43. Now there was a division among the people because of him. Now some of them wanted to take him but no one laid hands on him. Then the officers came to the chief priests and Pharisees who said to them, why have you not brought him? Which means that they were sent with his assignment to arrest to bring him. So why have you not brought him? The officers answered, no one ever spoke like this man. Then the Pharisees answered, are you also deceived? Etc. And then they said, no one ever spoke like this man. So in the way that he taught them, the way that he spoke, they were astounded even though they were sent with the assignment to arrest him and bring him. They were amazed by the words that they heard. And Matthew 13 talks about that. It says, when people were astonished, people were so amazed by the truth that he shared. So they exclaimed, Matthew 13, 54, they said, where did this man get this wisdom? And then these mighty works, wisdom and the mighty works going together. So wisdom. So when we look at wisdom, we see that it is the ability to apply the truth, apply knowledge, apply all understanding and experience. So it's the ability to do that. And when we look at wisdom, one characteristic of wisdom is that it is very practical. It's something that you do. It's something that you're able to apply. That's wisdom. So this is how I need to speak. This is how I need to order my life. This is how I need to... It will be about various areas, various aspects of my life, of one's life. So that is wisdom. So here are these people who are astonished and they're saying that where did this man get this wisdom? So it means that they were astounded by the simplicity. They were astounded by the complex things that he shared. They were astounded by the fact that, hey, this is something that is something that I can apply in my life. So that is the ability of wisdom. Wisdom unlocks certain areas that were previously closed that were locked. It just unlocks. It's like a key. And you apply it and suddenly it opens up. Opens our understanding and opens whatever was close to us. Wisdom opens unlocks and we're able to walk in that. So it was very impactful for them. The wisdom with which he spoke. And if you look at... Let's look at that verse, Matthew 13. Matthew 13 and verses 54. So they say where did this man get this wisdom? So if you look at verse 53, it says, now it came to pass when Jesus had finished these parables. So the verses prior to that, right from chapter 13 onwards, the parable of the sower and then he talks about... Explains that parable of the wheat and tares, parable of the mustard seed, parable of the leaven. Again, the hidden treasure, pearl of great price, parable about the dragnet. All these he is actually ministering. He is sharing. He is teaching them. And so they hear all that. And this is their response to all this. This is the response to the message. They hear this, they hear this teaching. And obviously it has really unlocked certain things in their minds. Unlocked. This is how I have access to the kingdom of God. This is what it means. When I hear the word, this is how I can have 30, 60, 100 fold. And this is what is required of me. That there is some amount of sacrifice that I... It's valued worth so much that I can sell everything and still go and take possession of what is valuable, like the pearl of great price. So it unlocked something, unlocked the understanding, gave them understanding. So then they come to that conclusion. Where did this person get this wisdom? So he ministered in wisdom. Now the thing is that the same thing is available for us. That God wants His children, God wants His ministers to minister in the same way, to walk in wisdom. So we see those that he walked in wisdom and that is available for us as well. So he spoke with authority. He spoke with authority. Let's look at look chapter 4, verses 31 and 32. Then he went down to Kappanam, a city of Galilee, and was teaching them on the Sabbath. And they were astonished at his teaching for his word was with authority. His word was with authority. So if you look at that word, authority, what does it mean? It means having the power, having the right to give orders, to make decisions, to enforce something. Or having a person or an organization having ability to enforce. So he spoke with authority. He did not speak as someone who did not have conviction. So what gives authority is conviction. When you know that you know that you know, when you're able to do things with authority, when you know that it is the truth, when you know and you are convinced and that this is what it is, when there is no double-mindedness, when you're single-minded, when you're focused, then you're able to communicate something with authority. We are able to do things with authority. So his word or the word that he communicated was with conviction. It came from a place of conviction. It came from a place of truth. So for us also, the same kind of ministry is available that we can speak with authority. I'm sure when there's a difference between when you're speaking from a place of, I heard about it, I'm saying, or I'm not sure if this is true. When you speak that, that doesn't come with authority. But when you speak from a place of knowing, from a place of having received understanding, from a place of being convinced yourself, from a place of experience, having engaged with the truth. When you talk about the Word of God, when you share the Word of God, having spent time, having received, having the words speak to you, not just, you know, read it, but having the Word spoken to your heart, ministered to your heart. When you share from that place of conviction, deep intimacy and confidence and knowing we speak authoritatively. So the Lord spoke with authority. Authority, again, comes from a place of intimacy with the Father. So earlier we saw, whatever he saw, what we heard the Father, that is what he spoke. The authority comes from a place of intimacy. I'm sure you've seen children, they're boasting about their parents, they're boasting, my dad can do that, my mom can do that. They're so confident about their parents, their trust, their place of confidence because of their intimacy. That intimacy gives birth to authority. So he walked in intimacy, he walked in that intimate relationship with the Father and that birthed the authority that he spoke with. So that same thing is available for us. When we walk in intimacy, when we walk with conviction, when we walk with having the word spoken to our hearts and not just a superficial engagement with the word, with the Bible, we will also speak with authority. So he spoke with authority and that's something available for us. Basically, he ministered with a meek heart. So meekness or humility was something that characterised the ministry of the Lord Jesus. It's a very powerful combination or a very potent combination. He ministered with authority, he ministered with wisdom, he ministered with a place of intimacy, having received and all that and he ministered with humility. Matthew chapter 11, 28, 29. The Lord says about himself, he says, Come to me all you labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me for I am gentle and lowly in heart and you will find rest for your souls. He's saying, this is who I am, this is how I am. Proverbs 16, 21, the wise in heart shall be called prudent and sweetness of the lips increases learnings. So we see that he, the Lord Jesus is the character at the core of his heart that he was humble, he came from a place of humility. So he ministered with a meek heart. Now, having received, having seen the Father, having heard the Father, having received this revelation and understanding, he did not come from a place of, I'm the expert, though he was, I know everything, though he knew, he came from a place of humility, wanting to minister, wanting to help, wanting to take others from where they were to where he wanted them to be. So that's something, you know, that's a very important lesson for all of us who want to minister or who are called to communicate, preach the gospel. Knowing that we have the Lord as our example, that he ministered with a meek heart, he ministered with humility. So something that we see in the book of James is that ministering in humility or having a humble heart actually positions us for greatness, positions us for the grace of God. And it's very important that we understand that. So let's look at James and we look at James chapter 4. James chapter 4 and verse 10. But before that, let's just read verse 6. But he gives more grace, therefore he says, God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble. God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble. That's something that we see. Verse 10. Humble yourself in the sight of the Lord and he will lift you up. So these, we see this. What is available for us? Exaltation is available for us. Grace, which we need, which is divine character, divine empowerment, divine enablement, unlimited favor is available for us freely. It is given. And he says, the promise is that he gives more grace and we need that. And what unlocks more grace is humility. God resists the proud. Now we cannot have pride because of our learning. We cannot have pride because of the anointing. And if you come to that place of pride, it's terrible to have God resist us. It's one thing to have people resist, people reject. It's one thing to have powers of darkness resist. And which we, that challenge is always there. But it's another thing to have altogether to have God resist us. It says God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble. So to have God push back against us is something that you and I don't want to experience in our lives. So he gives grace to the humble. So meekness is something that is required. And again we see that humble yourself in the sight of the Lord and he will lift you up. So exaltation comes or follows humility. The Lord raises us up as we humble ourselves in His presence. So the problem also talks about the fact that honor, before humility, I get the order, before honor follows humility. Before honor is humility. So that's the right order. So with humility there is always honor, there's exaltation. So he ministered like that, he ministered in that way. And to have meekness is to be wise in heart. So this meekness, this humility, humility precedes honor. Okay, yeah, thank you. So having this humility is not a weakness. Having this humility is not self-abasement in the sense it's not putting ourselves down. Sometimes we have a wrong understanding of humility. We have a wrong understanding of how this meekness works. So we think that it means that being less confident. It means not walking confidently or not speaking up or being quiet all the time. Maybe such a meek person. No, it's not that. It doesn't mean that, okay, you are like a doormat. Whatever people say, whatever people do that you don't speak things. You don't speak up or you don't stand firm. That's not how it is. So it is understanding who you are, understanding our position in Christ. It is calling ourselves the way Jesus calls us. It is affirming, acknowledging and affirming what we have become in Christ Jesus. That's true humility. That's true meekness. So he ministered with that meekness in his heart. Okay, next one. We are almost reaching the end of the... So he used scripture extensively. He quoted scripture and the scriptures that he quoted was from the Old Testament, from the prophets, the law and the prophets extensively. In fact, that is one of the tests of the canon of scripture. The Lord Jesus quoted from the Psalms. He quoted from the prophetic scriptures and so on. So many instances, we see right through the Lord quoting from scripture. So he used Old Testament scriptures while preaching and teaching and so should we, not just the Old Testament but the Old and the New. The Bible talks about a person who is learned, wise will bring out of the treasure both Old and New, out of the house both Old and New. So when we use the Old, we use it in context. We apply it in context, in the context of the cross. No understanding the dispensation and we use that and we apply that. So Old Testament and New Testament scriptures are available for us. So in the ministry of the Word, he used the truth of scripture to teach the people. He quoted, he taught them and in his ministry. So that's something for us to... We can't say that it's too old fashioned, I will not use scripture. I will just teach, I will just speak. Our reference point is always the Word of God. So we always base it on the Word of God, whatever we teach. So that's something because the Word of God has power, the Word of God. Like we studied, it has to be based on the Word of God because the Word of God is life. The Word of God is a life, powerful, eternal or deep, permanent transformation comes because of the power of God's Word. It's a Word that produces life. So we are born again by the Word of God. So we are washed by the Word of God. A person receives conviction and it's by the Word through the Holy Spirit. So all that, a person's faith increases because of the Word. A person is able to do great exploits because of the understanding of the Word of God. And scripture is very clear. It says that all scripture is God-breathed. Let's read that. And it's given for a purpose that the man of God, a woman of God might be thoroughly equipped for every good word. So when we have this Word, when we have such a resource, so we need to base our ministry on the Word of God. We need to base our communication of truth based on the Word of God. So let's look at that verse. Second Timothy 3 verse 16. All scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable or beneficial for doctrine or reproof or correction or instruction in righteousness that the man of God may be complete or brought to the place of maturity, thoroughly equipped for every good work. So all scripture, which is the Old and the New, is given by the inspiration of God. So the Lord, we saw how he refuted the attack or the temptation and the tests that came to him through Satan. He refuted everything with the Word of God. He refuted everything by saying, it is written, it is written, it is written. So he knew the Word. He himself was the Word, we know that. He knew the Word. He used the, declared the Word to come against, to refute every accusation, every lie of the enemy. So we base it on the Word. Okay, so we see that he also used parables and illustrations. Like we see Matthew chapter 13, that whole chapter, several parables to bring truth to people, to make sure that people understood the truth. So earthly stories with heavenly perspective, heavenly meaning and truth. So drawing that parallel, illustrating it so that it is easy to understand. It's easy to apply. What we do not understand, we will not apply. If we, you know, if, first of all, he shared the truth, but he shared it in a way that people could receive, people could understand. So with the revelation comes, with the understanding, you know, with the revelation comes conviction. So only when we understand, am I convinced? Am I convinced? And only when I'm convinced, do I put it to practice? And we know that revelation, conviction, action. So only when there is understanding is there conviction and which leads to action. So unless I understand, I will not be moved to act. So it's very important. So he used parables, he used illustrations in order to make people understand. And a couple of other things. The power of God was present. God confirmed or authenticated everything that was ministered, the truth that was shared with his presence. And in his presence, there is power. So the power of God was present. We read that was present to heal and deliver and so on. And lastly, he ministered out of compassion. He was not detached. He was very engaged. Why did he minister out of compassion? He was moved with compassion when he saw the needs, need of people. So which means that his heart was there with the people. He engaged with the need. He understood the need of the people and he moved, he ministered out of that place of compassion. So we see all this and we see that the Lord ministered in this manner. So it's for us to expand our understanding, how he ministered. And also to apply in our own lives and say, Lord, the way you ministered, I want to minister. The way you shared, Lord communicated, Lord, we want to communicate with authority, with wisdom and in all these wonderful ways. Okay, so we'll stop here and we'll catch up tomorrow.
