Bobby Chandler: Authentic Church | Bobby Chandler - Sunday is Coming (Part 2) | July 13, 2025

And now he has given us an assignment.
00:00:01.075 --> 00:00:03.611
And that assignment is to spread the gospel all over the world.
00:00:03.611 --> 00:00:08.149
So today we get to celebrate jesus.
00:00:08.149 --> 00:00:11.452
Notice the weight of these words
00:00:11.452 --> 00:00:13.421
As they're about to be thrown into the fire.
00:00:13.421 --> 00:00:15.556
Even if god, it doesn't show up the way we want him to.
00:00:15.556 --> 00:00:18.726
Let me make it clear to you, your majesty.
00:00:18.726 --> 00:00:21.262
We will never serve your gods
00:00:21.262 --> 00:00:23.297
Or worship to the gold statue that you have set up.
00:00:23.297 --> 00:00:27.501
I will not bow down to an earthly king.
00:00:27.501 --> 00:00:30.738
I only bow down to the king of all kings.
00:00:30.738 --> 00:00:33.808
And we talked a little bit about this last week.
00:00:34.809 --> 00:00:37.378
So many times we pray.
00:00:37.378 --> 00:00:38.479
God, don't leave me into the hardships.
00:00:38.479 --> 00:00:40.481
Don't leave me into the pain.
00:00:40.481 --> 00:00:41.749
I don't want to face difficulties or difficult times.
00:00:41.749 --> 00:00:45.086
But did you know sometimes the miracle that's coming?
00:00:45.086 --> 00:00:47.721
It's not protecting you from the fire.
00:00:47.721 --> 00:00:49.590
It's actually in the fire.
00:00:49.590 --> 00:00:51.759
There were times in your life.
00:00:52.359 --> 00:00:53.794
God will send you into a storm.
00:00:53.794 --> 00:00:56.230
God will send you into the fire. why?
00:00:56.230 --> 00:00:58.599
So you can realize jesus is there.
00:00:58.599 --> 00:01:01.702
But if you never went into the storm,
00:01:01.702 --> 00:01:03.137
How would you ever see jesus walk on water?
00:01:03.137 --> 00:01:06.140
Right?
00:01:06.140 --> 00:01:07.241
If you never faced a giant, how would you know that
00:01:07.241 --> 00:01:08.476
God can protect you and make the giant fall?
00:01:08.476 --> 00:01:11.078
You have to go through these things.
00:01:11.078 --> 00:01:12.880
We don't want to, but there's a miracle coming.
00:01:12.880 --> 00:01:16.484
There's a lesson that god is teaching you and showing you.
00:01:16.484 --> 00:01:19.120
And so let me give you one example.
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:20.788
We've been in the book of daniel, right?
00:01:20.788 --> 00:01:23.424
And daniel and his friends were living in babylon.
00:01:23.424 --> 00:01:27.061
And we see something incredible here.
00:01:27.061 --> 00:01:28.729
I'm a bible nerd when it comes to this.
00:01:28.729 --> 00:01:30.397
I love looking at the old testament
00:01:30.397 --> 00:01:32.099
And applying it to the new testament,
00:01:32.099 --> 00:01:33.634
Because it all points to jesus
00:01:33.634 --> 00:01:35.803
From the very beginning to the very end.
00:01:35.803 --> 00:01:37.238
It all points to jesus.
00:01:37.238 --> 00:01:38.539
And what we see out of the old testament
00:01:38.539 --> 00:01:39.807
Many times it's got a kristoff and a kristoff and he says
00:01:39.807 --> 00:01:43.010
It's actually jesus showing up in the old testament.
00:01:43.010 --> 00:01:47.114
Jesus showing up.
00:01:47.548 --> 00:01:48.916
And so we see this out of the book of daniel
00:01:48.916 --> 00:01:51.285
And daniel chapter three.
00:01:51.285 --> 00:01:52.786
When meshach
00:01:52.786 --> 00:01:54.188
And abednego are thrown into a blazing furnace
00:01:54.188 --> 00:01:57.258
Because they would not bow down to nebuchadnezzar.
00:01:57.258 --> 00:02:00.494
And if you know the story, what happened?
00:02:00.494 --> 00:02:02.496
The king looks into the fire and says that we throw three men
00:02:02.496 --> 00:02:06.000
Into the fire.
00:02:06.333 --> 00:02:08.469
There's a fourth one,
00:02:08.469 --> 00:02:10.337
And he looks like a god.
00:02:10.337 --> 00:02:12.973
Why? because he's jesus.
00:02:12.973 --> 00:02:16.010
And see, they had to go into the fire.
00:02:16.010 --> 00:02:19.246
Please.
00:02:19.480 --> 00:02:20.080
This is where we mature.
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:21.849
I know it's not easy to hear, but they had to go into the fire
00:02:21.849 --> 00:02:25.686
To realize that jesus would save them from the fire,
00:02:25.686 --> 00:02:29.123
That jesus would be in this place.
00:02:29.123 --> 00:02:31.058
And so the fourth man in the fire is jesus christ.
00:02:31.058 --> 00:02:34.328
I firmly believe that.
00:02:34.328 --> 00:02:36.530
And so now, looking back at jesus
00:02:36.530 --> 00:02:37.998
In the garden of gethsemane,
00:02:37.998 --> 00:02:39.266
It brings a whole new meaning to psalms chapter 30, verse five,
00:02:39.266 --> 00:02:43.204
Which states, this weeping
00:02:43.204 --> 00:02:45.005
May last through the night, but there is joy.
00:02:45.005 --> 00:02:49.143
Joy comes in the morning.
00:02:49.710 --> 00:02:51.712
Now let's learn from the gospel story.
00:02:51.712 --> 00:02:54.982
Friday was dark.
00:02:54.982 --> 00:02:58.152
Friday was torture.
00:02:58.619 --> 00:03:01.188
Friday his flesh was ripped off his body.
00:03:01.188 --> 00:03:05.793
That's hard.
00:03:06.126 --> 00:03:07.695
But i need you to understand.
00:03:07.695 --> 00:03:08.696
Saturday was just as hard. why?
00:03:08.696 --> 00:03:09.997
Because saturday was silent.
00:03:09.997 --> 00:03:12.967
Oh, where's your faith?
00:03:12.967 --> 00:03:15.869
Where's your faith when it comes to the in-between.
00:03:15.869 --> 00:03:19.006
When you're in that day.
00:03:19.006 --> 00:03:19.873
When you feel like you hear nothing.
00:03:19.873 --> 00:03:22.009
When you see nothing.
00:03:22.009 --> 00:03:23.544
God, how come you allowed this to happen?
00:03:23.544 --> 00:03:25.913
But listen, sunday was still coming.
00:03:25.913 --> 00:03:30.451
And i, to ask you this question today, is that where you are?
00:03:30.451 --> 00:03:33.654
You feel like you're right there.
00:03:33.654 --> 00:03:34.722
God has made a promise of your life
00:03:34.722 --> 00:03:36.190
And you still haven't seen it.
00:03:36.190 --> 00:03:37.358
Still move by faith.
00:03:37.358 --> 00:03:39.059
God is in control.
00:03:39.059 --> 00:03:41.195
His perfect will will be done.
00:03:41.195 --> 00:03:44.198
So the title of today's message is this sunday is coming.
00:03:44.198 --> 00:03:48.669
Sunday is coming.
00:03:49.103 --> 00:03:50.271
And i gotta admit to you, i'm doing something unique,
00:03:50.271 --> 00:03:53.240
With this sermon today.
00:03:53.240 --> 00:03:54.308
Something i'm never done for resurrection sunday.
00:03:54.308 --> 00:03:56.577
But here's what i felt from the lord
00:03:56.577 --> 00:03:57.778
This week is i was praying.
00:03:57.778 --> 00:03:58.912
We've been in this series titled thrones and beasts,
00:03:58.912 --> 00:04:02.549
And today we're talking about the king of all kings, right?
00:04:02.549 --> 00:04:05.185
The kingdom of god, the the major throne,
00:04:05.185 --> 00:04:07.921
The one throne of god of jesus christ.
00:04:07.921 --> 00:04:10.958
And throughout this series, over the last few weeks,
00:04:10.958 --> 00:04:13.160
We've been taking a deep dive into the book of daniel
00:04:13.160 --> 00:04:15.996
And learning how to have incredible faith
00:04:15.996 --> 00:04:18.499
Through hard times, through the trials of life.
00:04:18.499 --> 00:04:21.568
And so here's what i felt from the lord
00:04:21.568 --> 00:04:22.970
I felt on this resurrection sunday.
00:04:22.970 --> 00:04:24.838
I want to continue where we left off to show you
00:04:24.838 --> 00:04:27.908
Incredible parallels between the fire and the cross
00:04:27.908 --> 00:04:32.012
That jesus is always with us,
00:04:32.646 --> 00:04:35.783
That he saved us from our sins.
00:04:35.783 --> 00:04:38.118
So let's go ahead and dive in to point number one,
00:04:38.118 --> 00:04:40.154
Which is this what the enemy meant to destroy you?
00:04:40.154 --> 00:04:43.824
God will use to deliver you?
00:04:43.824 --> 00:04:46.960
Can we say amen to that?
00:04:46.960 --> 00:04:48.796
Like hallelujah with the enemy meant to destroy you.
00:04:48.796 --> 00:04:52.433
That person talking bad about you.
00:04:52.433 --> 00:04:54.668
Those people coming up against you.
00:04:54.668 --> 00:04:56.470
That situation in that was a disaster.
00:04:56.470 --> 00:04:58.505
God can still use it for the good.
00:04:58.505 --> 00:05:02.209
God can still use it to deliver you.
00:05:02.209 --> 00:05:04.645
Meaning?
00:05:04.645 --> 00:05:05.446
My god is in control of all things.
00:05:05.446 --> 00:05:07.915
And you don't have to fear the devil.
00:05:07.915 --> 00:05:10.484
You don't have to fear the people.
00:05:10.484 --> 00:05:13.087
Just fear god.
00:05:13.087 --> 00:05:14.822
That is the beginning of all wisdom, by the way,
00:05:14.822 --> 00:05:16.990
To fear the lord.
00:05:16.990 --> 00:05:17.691
So in daniel chapter three,
00:05:17.691 --> 00:05:19.493
If you have your bibles, you can turn there.
00:05:19.493 --> 00:05:21.462
But scholars believe from daniel chapter two to daniel chapter
00:05:21.462 --> 00:05:24.698
Three, there's about a 15 to 20 year difference now.
00:05:24.698 --> 00:05:28.669
And i told you in daniel chapter two is he interpreted king
00:05:28.669 --> 00:05:30.971
Nebuchadnezzar's dream.
00:05:30.971 --> 00:05:32.239
He was only around the age of 18 years old.
00:05:32.239 --> 00:05:34.942
Well, now in daniel chapter three, most likely
00:05:34.942 --> 00:05:36.844
Him and his friends are around the age of 30.
00:05:36.844 --> 00:05:39.513
His friends names are hananiah, azariah, and michelle.
00:05:39.513 --> 00:05:42.683
This is actually their hebrew names,
00:05:42.683 --> 00:05:44.651
But now they're going to face
00:05:44.651 --> 00:05:45.753
The biggest test of their life, the biggest trial.
00:05:45.753 --> 00:05:48.889
And something interesting to me about daniel
00:05:49.790 --> 00:05:51.225
Chapter three is that daniel was nowhere to be seen.
00:05:51.225 --> 00:05:53.660
We don't see daniel at all, but we see his friends
00:05:53.660 --> 00:05:55.963
Standing up to a king that is threatening their life.
00:05:55.963 --> 00:05:58.766
What would you do?
00:05:58.766 --> 00:06:00.734
Let me ask you right now.
00:06:00.734 --> 00:06:01.435
What would you do?
00:06:01.435 --> 00:06:03.137
And a lot of us
00:06:03.137 --> 00:06:04.371
Read this story and we're like, oh, i would stand up by faith,
00:06:04.371 --> 00:06:06.874
Pastor. i would stand up by faith.
00:06:06.874 --> 00:06:08.075
Yeah.
00:06:08.075 --> 00:06:09.843
Do you stand up by faith at your workplace right now?
00:06:09.843 --> 00:06:13.547
Do you stand up by faith when it comes to your friends,
00:06:13.547 --> 00:06:15.549
When it comes to school,
00:06:15.549 --> 00:06:16.517
When it comes to to family members right
00:06:16.517 --> 00:06:18.452
Now, it's not easy.
00:06:18.452 --> 00:06:21.255
But again, this is why the lord told us to pray
00:06:21.255 --> 00:06:23.857
Through all temptation and god will give us strength.
00:06:24.858 --> 00:06:27.628
So let's read this story together.
00:06:27.628 --> 00:06:28.695
I'll break it down as we go.
00:06:28.695 --> 00:06:30.063
Daniel chapter three, verse one.
00:06:30.063 --> 00:06:31.498
King nebuchadnezzar made a gold statue.
00:06:31.498 --> 00:06:33.901
Listen to this.
00:06:33.901 --> 00:06:34.701
90ft tall and nine feet wide.
00:06:34.701 --> 00:06:37.838
I don't know if you heard that.
00:06:38.472 --> 00:06:39.373
90ft tall, nine feet wide.
00:06:39.373 --> 00:06:40.941
This is like a totem pole.
00:06:40.941 --> 00:06:42.209
Okay?
00:06:42.209 --> 00:06:43.076
This is a very skinny, very tall, idol.
00:06:43.076 --> 00:06:45.979
And many scholars believe either it's offer, off of a
00:06:45.979 --> 00:06:50.117
A false god that they worship, maybe belle,
00:06:50.117 --> 00:06:51.919
Or it's an image of king nebuchadnezzar himself.
00:06:51.919 --> 00:06:54.588
But it was set up in the plane
00:06:54.588 --> 00:06:55.589
Of dura, in the province of babylon.
00:06:55.589 --> 00:06:57.624
Then it states this in verses three through six.
00:06:57.624 --> 00:06:59.927
So all these officials came and stood before the statue
00:06:59.927 --> 00:07:03.297
King nebuchadnezzar had set up.
00:07:03.297 --> 00:07:05.232
Then a herald shout it out.
00:07:05.232 --> 00:07:06.500
People of all races, nations, and languages,
00:07:06.500 --> 00:07:10.704
Listen to the king's command when you hear the sound
00:07:10.704 --> 00:07:13.674
Of the horn, flute, zither, la
00:07:13.674 --> 00:07:16.710
Harp, pipes and other musical instruments bowed
00:07:16.710 --> 00:07:19.580
To the ground to worship king nebuchadnezzar golden statue.
00:07:19.580 --> 00:07:23.484
So as soon as the music played, everybody bowed.
00:07:23.484 --> 00:07:27.754
Now here's the thing, though.
00:07:28.388 --> 00:07:30.557
Notice this next verse.
00:07:30.557 --> 00:07:31.859
Anyone who refuses to obey will immediately
00:07:31.859 --> 00:07:35.596
Be thrown into a blazing furnace.
00:07:35.596 --> 00:07:38.999
I need you to see something.
00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:40.801
This is an important revelation.
00:07:40.801 --> 00:07:42.069
Okay, i've heard a pastor stated like this god is a gentleman.
00:07:42.069 --> 00:07:46.240
God will show you and tell you which way to go.
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:49.042
What's the perfect will for your life is
00:07:49.042 --> 00:07:51.245
His perfect will for your life.
00:07:51.245 --> 00:07:52.579
But he's never going to force you to do it.
00:07:52.579 --> 00:07:54.948
God is not going to force you to obey his commands.
00:07:54.948 --> 00:07:57.117
That's going to be a choice you make.
00:07:57.117 --> 00:07:58.752
But it's opposite.
00:07:58.752 --> 00:07:59.987
It's the opposite when it comes to the demonic,
00:07:59.987 --> 00:08:02.523
When it comes to demons, when it comes to satan,
00:08:02.523 --> 00:08:04.758
Satan wants to try to control you,
00:08:04.758 --> 00:08:06.894
And he wants to try to threaten you.
00:08:06.894 --> 00:08:08.529
If you do not
00:08:08.529 --> 00:08:09.696
Do what i tell you to do, i will persecute your faith.
00:08:09.696 --> 00:08:12.833
I will come after you.
00:08:13.300 --> 00:08:14.568
This teaches us to stand strong by faith,
00:08:14.568 --> 00:08:17.971
Because even while our workplace may come after us,
00:08:17.971 --> 00:08:21.275
Other people may come after us. they may mockers.
00:08:21.275 --> 00:08:23.810
We know that jesus is still with us,
00:08:23.810 --> 00:08:26.413
And you were created in such a time
00:08:27.180 --> 00:08:28.982
As this to proclaim his name.
00:08:28.982 --> 00:08:30.484
Do you understand that
00:08:30.484 --> 00:08:32.719
In these days you were created to glorify him?
00:08:32.719 --> 00:08:35.889
Anyone who refused to obey, though,
00:08:35.889 --> 00:08:37.991
Would immediately be thrown into the blazing furnace.
00:08:37.991 --> 00:08:40.627
And so in this story, the kings, magicians, and enchanters,
00:08:40.627 --> 00:08:44.565
They were jealous of daniel and his friends. why?
00:08:44.565 --> 00:08:47.601
Because in daniel chapter two,
00:08:47.601 --> 00:08:49.469
Daniel was able to interpret the dream.
00:08:49.469 --> 00:08:51.371
Tell him about the dream.
00:08:51.371 --> 00:08:52.472
So they were highly honored
00:08:52.472 --> 00:08:55.008
And so the other people couldn't stand them.
00:08:55.008 --> 00:08:57.444
And so what they did, they titled verse 12 to 15.
00:08:57.444 --> 00:09:01.114
They go up to the king and they take the king.
00:09:01.114 --> 00:09:02.950
King.
00:09:02.950 --> 00:09:04.251
There's some jews, shadrach, meshach, and abednego.
00:09:04.251 --> 00:09:08.288
Again, this is the babylonian names
00:09:08.288 --> 00:09:09.923
Who you have put in charge of the province of babylon.
00:09:09.923 --> 00:09:13.093
This in king they pay no attention to you, your majesty.
00:09:13.093 --> 00:09:17.431
They refuse to serve your gods, and do not worship
00:09:17.431 --> 00:09:21.501
The golden statue that you have set up.
00:09:21.501 --> 00:09:25.505
Let me tell you right now,
00:09:25.505 --> 00:09:26.974
When you do the right thing for the lord,
00:09:26.974 --> 00:09:28.909
You better get used to it and be prepared
00:09:28.909 --> 00:09:31.144
For people to rub your name in the dirt,
00:09:31.144 --> 00:09:34.014
For people to come after
00:09:34.548 --> 00:09:35.716
You and tattle on you and say all these kind of things.
00:09:35.716 --> 00:09:39.620
So nebuchadnezzar flew into a rage and ordered that
00:09:39.620 --> 00:09:42.789
Shadrach, meshach, and abednego be brought before him.
00:09:42.789 --> 00:09:46.994
When they were brought in, nebuchadnezzar
00:09:46.994 --> 00:09:48.528
Said to them, is it true?
00:09:48.528 --> 00:09:51.031
Is it true, shadrach, meshach, and abednego,
00:09:51.031 --> 00:09:53.066
That you refuse to serve my gods or worship the gold statue
00:09:53.066 --> 00:09:57.404
That i have set up?
00:09:57.404 --> 00:09:58.472
Now listen to how bold this is,
00:09:58.472 --> 00:10:01.541
He said, i'm going to give you one more chance.
00:10:01.541 --> 00:10:04.378
He's going to threaten them now.
00:10:04.378 --> 00:10:05.679
I'm gonna give you one more
00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:06.880
Chance to bow down and worship the statue that i have made.
00:10:06.880 --> 00:10:09.516
When you hear the sound of the musical instruments.
00:10:09.516 --> 00:10:11.718
But if you refuse,
00:10:11.718 --> 00:10:13.453
You will be thrown immediately into the blazing furnace.
00:10:13.453 --> 00:10:19.626
And here is.
00:10:19.960 --> 00:10:22.462
This is how we know it's demonic.
00:10:22.462 --> 00:10:25.532
And then he stated, what god
00:10:25.532 --> 00:10:28.702
Will be able to rescue you from my power.
00:10:28.702 --> 00:10:31.972
The bible is very clear.
00:10:32.506 --> 00:10:35.175
With pride comes a fall.
00:10:35.175 --> 00:10:37.644
We're going to learn very soon in this story of daniel,
00:10:37.644 --> 00:10:40.180
The nebuchadnezzar.
00:10:40.180 --> 00:10:41.348
Yes, he had a great power because god gave it to him.
00:10:41.348 --> 00:10:44.017
But eventually he goes
00:10:44.017 --> 00:10:45.018
Mad, possessed by demons,
00:10:45.018 --> 00:10:46.553
And lives like a wild animal in the field.
00:10:46.553 --> 00:10:49.289
Why? because the open door into his heart, into his
00:10:49.289 --> 00:10:52.159
Life, was the door of pride,
00:10:52.159 --> 00:10:54.061
And demons took full control over that.
00:10:54.061 --> 00:10:57.564
And so right here we see this arrogance.
00:10:57.564 --> 00:10:59.332
What kind of god can save you?
00:10:59.332 --> 00:11:03.336
From my power.
00:11:03.670 --> 00:11:06.006
You know what i love about faith?
00:11:06.006 --> 00:11:07.941
What i love about faith is that when you speak by faith,
00:11:07.941 --> 00:11:10.577
Listen, you shocked the world.
00:11:10.577 --> 00:11:12.512
You realize that
00:11:12.913 --> 00:11:14.314
When you speak something out loud by faith,
00:11:14.314 --> 00:11:17.250
You are a testimony of who jesus is
00:11:17.250 --> 00:11:20.253
And how he shows up in your life.
00:11:20.253 --> 00:11:22.022
Because everybody else would have said, okay, okay, king,
00:11:22.022 --> 00:11:24.558
I'm going to bow down. i don't want to risk my life.
00:11:24.558 --> 00:11:26.460
But in verses 16 to 18, shadrach, meshach,
00:11:26.460 --> 00:11:29.529
And abednego replied, oh nebuchadnezzar, i love this.
00:11:29.529 --> 00:11:33.700
We do not need to defend ourselves before you.
00:11:33.700 --> 00:11:37.404
You're the king,
00:11:37.804 --> 00:11:40.474
But i serve the king of kings,
00:11:40.474 --> 00:11:43.310
And so we do not need to defend ourselves before you.
00:11:43.310 --> 00:11:45.545
There's no reason to even talk over this.
00:11:45.545 --> 00:11:48.515
If we're thrown into the blazing furnace, the god whom we serve
00:11:48.515 --> 00:11:52.052
Is able to save us, and he will rescue us from your power.
00:11:52.052 --> 00:11:57.257
Your majesty.
00:11:57.257 --> 00:11:58.225
I love how they kind of throw that in there.
00:11:58.225 --> 00:12:00.427
Like they're being defiant.
00:12:00.427 --> 00:12:01.661
At the same time, they're being respectful. like, you know.
00:12:01.661 --> 00:12:07.134
A lot of us would
00:12:07.567 --> 00:12:08.135
Skip verse 18, though.
00:12:08.135 --> 00:12:12.005
A lot of us would skip the very next verse.
00:12:12.873 --> 00:12:15.709
We would stop right there.
00:12:15.709 --> 00:12:16.676
We would say, okay, this is speaking by faith.
00:12:16.676 --> 00:12:18.578
God is going to rescue us.
00:12:18.578 --> 00:12:19.913
God is going to deliver us.
00:12:19.913 --> 00:12:21.014
He's not going to allow us
00:12:21.014 --> 00:12:22.249
To go through pain, and he's going to save us from the fire.
00:12:22.249 --> 00:12:24.785
That's what a lot of us for state.
00:12:25.519 --> 00:12:26.753
But notice this, that's not what they stop, but then they stay.
00:12:26.753 --> 00:12:30.657
But even if he doesn't
00:12:30.657 --> 00:12:34.494
Notice the weight of these words as they're about
00:12:34.494 --> 00:12:36.997
To be thrown into the fire,
00:12:36.997 --> 00:12:38.565
Even if god doesn't show up the way we want him to.
00:12:38.565 --> 00:12:41.735
Let me make it clear to you, your majesty.
00:12:41.735 --> 00:12:44.271
We will never serve your gods
00:12:44.271 --> 00:12:46.306
Or worship to the gold statue that you have set up.
00:12:46.306 --> 00:12:50.510
I will not bow down to an earthly king.
00:12:50.510 --> 00:12:53.780
I only bow down to the king of all kings.
00:12:53.780 --> 00:12:57.083
This is a faith that we need to learn.
00:12:57.083 --> 00:12:59.886
This is how we mature.
00:12:59.886 --> 00:13:01.054
This is how we grow. i know god can't,
00:13:01.054 --> 00:13:05.158
But even
00:13:05.425 --> 00:13:06.126
If he doesn't, he's still god
00:13:06.126 --> 00:13:09.029
And his will will be done.
00:13:09.029 --> 00:13:10.197
And again,
00:13:10.197 --> 00:13:11.398
I look at the words of jesus christ that your will be done,
00:13:11.398 --> 00:13:14.768
Father, even though it's going to bring some pain
00:13:14.768 --> 00:13:17.838
Because it's the only way for people to be saved
00:13:18.805 --> 00:13:21.007
And redeemed and restored.
00:13:21.007 --> 00:13:22.342
It's the only way for god's
00:13:22.342 --> 00:13:23.810
Love to be proven to the entire world.
00:13:23.810 --> 00:13:25.979
It's the only way to defeat hell.
00:13:25.979 --> 00:13:29.649
It's the only way.
00:13:30.083 --> 00:13:32.886
And so let me ask this question.
00:13:32.886 --> 00:13:34.087
What does this story right here teach us about real faith?
00:13:34.087 --> 00:13:36.890
Listen to this real faith.
00:13:36.890 --> 00:13:38.959
It's not based on outcomes,
00:13:38.959 --> 00:13:41.228
But it's actually based on who god is.
00:13:41.228 --> 00:13:44.698
Here's what i love about the bible.
00:13:44.698 --> 00:13:46.099
The bible bible is very clear.
00:13:46.099 --> 00:13:47.868
When you ask the lord, he does answer. did you know that
00:13:47.868 --> 00:13:50.971
He loves for you to pray?
00:13:51.538 --> 00:13:53.106
He will answer you.
00:13:53.106 --> 00:13:54.307
And sometimes the answer is yes.
00:13:54.307 --> 00:13:57.177
Hallelujah!
00:13:57.177 --> 00:13:58.578
That's where we dance and shout.
00:13:58.578 --> 00:14:00.347
We get all excited.
00:14:00.347 --> 00:14:01.414
My god rescued me, but sometimes we ask the lord
00:14:01.414 --> 00:14:05.018
God, can i be in this relationship? no.
00:14:05.018 --> 00:14:08.221
Hold up. god. hold on.
00:14:08.688 --> 00:14:10.624
I don't know if you heard my prayers
00:14:10.624 --> 00:14:11.691
At the altar was pretty cute.
00:14:11.691 --> 00:14:12.993
You know, like,
00:14:12.993 --> 00:14:16.162
Can i be in this relationship? no.
00:14:16.162 --> 00:14:19.599
Sometimes the answer the lord is yes.
00:14:20.400 --> 00:14:23.570
Sometimes the answer is no.
00:14:23.570 --> 00:14:26.907
And if god doesn't do the thing you want him to do,
00:14:26.907 --> 00:14:29.976
He's still god.
00:14:29.976 --> 00:14:33.446
Sometimes the answer is you're not ready.
00:14:33.446 --> 00:14:36.650
You know how many times i see stories out of the bible
00:14:37.751 --> 00:14:39.920
Where god was protecting his people
00:14:39.920 --> 00:14:41.421
Because they wanted to rush things,
00:14:41.421 --> 00:14:42.956
But they weren't ready for the battles to come.
00:14:42.956 --> 00:14:45.592
They would have died in the wilderness over certain things.
00:14:45.592 --> 00:14:48.028
So god protected them from these things.
00:14:48.028 --> 00:14:49.996
And i realized in my life, listen, nobody likes patience
00:14:49.996 --> 00:14:53.667
Like none of us like patience.
00:14:54.267 --> 00:14:55.368
We don't say amen to patience, but we know we need it.
00:14:55.368 --> 00:14:58.605
Here's what i realized in my life i'm starting to pray.
00:14:58.605 --> 00:15:01.074
God make me grateful for patience.
00:15:01.074 --> 00:15:04.210
Because if i haven't stepped into something yet,
00:15:04.210 --> 00:15:06.379
It means i'm not ready. you're protecting me.
00:15:06.379 --> 00:15:09.115
And so right now, just teach me, lord,
00:15:09.115 --> 00:15:11.251
What you want to teach me.
00:15:11.251 --> 00:15:13.453
Okay.
00:15:13.453 --> 00:15:14.254
What is god teaching you right now
00:15:14.254 --> 00:15:16.523
With your life, with your future,
00:15:16.523 --> 00:15:18.858
With your family, with relationships?
00:15:18.858 --> 00:15:20.961
What is god teaching you?
00:15:20.961 --> 00:15:22.462
Maybe there are some things you're not ready for,
00:15:22.462 --> 00:15:25.598
So god is prepping you for that.
00:15:26.232 --> 00:15:27.801
But listen, he is still good.
00:15:27.801 --> 00:15:30.904
These men did not worship god because he always delivers
00:15:30.904 --> 00:15:34.908
What they want.
00:15:34.908 --> 00:15:35.942
They worshiped god because he is worthy of praise.
00:15:35.942 --> 00:15:41.614
Let me ask this question who is the lord?
00:15:42.449 --> 00:15:45.118
If somebody came up to you today and said, who is god?
00:15:45.118 --> 00:15:48.588
What would you tell them?
00:15:48.588 --> 00:15:50.557
Do you have an answer?
00:15:50.557 --> 00:15:52.459
Let me show you a few things about our lord.
00:15:52.459 --> 00:15:54.227
First of all, he is holy.
00:15:54.227 --> 00:15:57.964
You don't realize we kind of forget this sometimes.
00:15:57.964 --> 00:16:01.067
Isaiah chapter six, verse three states it like this
00:16:01.067 --> 00:16:03.036
Holy, holy is the lord of heaven's army.
00:16:03.036 --> 00:16:06.039
For the whole earth is filled with his glory.
00:16:06.039 --> 00:16:08.742
All creation cries out to the lord god almighty.
00:16:08.742 --> 00:16:12.779
There are stories out of the bible,
00:16:13.580 --> 00:16:15.749
Especially out of the old testament.
00:16:15.749 --> 00:16:16.850
The ark of the covenant was so holy
00:16:16.850 --> 00:16:18.752
It represented god's presence that there's a story of a man
00:16:18.752 --> 00:16:21.321
That grabbed it the wrong way.
00:16:21.321 --> 00:16:22.789
And because he grabbed it the wrong way, he died.
00:16:22.789 --> 00:16:25.058
Why? because that's the power and holiness of god.
00:16:26.059 --> 00:16:29.429
He is set apart.
00:16:29.429 --> 00:16:30.363
He's perfect in every way.
00:16:30.363 --> 00:16:31.664
And i'm telling you,
00:16:31.664 --> 00:16:32.599
Sometimes we take his holiness for granted.
00:16:32.599 --> 00:16:35.268
Sometimes we come into the presence of god,
00:16:35.268 --> 00:16:37.370
Looking at him like he's a genie.
00:16:37.370 --> 00:16:38.838
That's going to grant every wish. no, no, no, he's god.
00:16:38.838 --> 00:16:41.207
We're the creation we were created to serve him.
00:16:41.207 --> 00:16:44.811
We were created to praise him.
00:16:44.811 --> 00:16:46.479
He is holy.
00:16:46.479 --> 00:16:49.849
And he saved us
00:16:50.216 --> 00:16:52.719
So that we can dwell in this holy presence for all eternity.
00:16:52.719 --> 00:16:56.489
Which means.
00:16:56.823 --> 00:16:57.690
The second thing is this he is love.
00:16:57.690 --> 00:17:00.693
First john chapter four, verse eight states like this.
00:17:00.693 --> 00:17:02.929
But anyone who does not love does not know god.
00:17:02.929 --> 00:17:05.565
For god is love.
00:17:05.565 --> 00:17:08.601
Let me say it in a way that's a little bit harder.
00:17:08.601 --> 00:17:10.837
How can you say you love god but don't love your neighbor?
00:17:10.837 --> 00:17:14.040
And some of you are like, but you don't know
00:17:14.941 --> 00:17:16.342
My neighbor pastor and we need this, right?
00:17:16.342 --> 00:17:19.946
Let's be honest,
00:17:19.946 --> 00:17:21.047
Just because we're christians and we follow jesus
00:17:21.047 --> 00:17:23.383
Doesn't mean it's easy to love people.
00:17:23.383 --> 00:17:25.718
Sometimes we pray this prayer.
00:17:25.718 --> 00:17:26.953
Can i pray over them, bless them,
00:17:26.953 --> 00:17:28.221
And slap them at the same time like god?
00:17:28.221 --> 00:17:30.757
And here's what i love.
00:17:30.757 --> 00:17:31.591
The holy spirit
00:17:31.591 --> 00:17:32.692
Will move through you and help you love people. why?
00:17:32.692 --> 00:17:36.229
Because god is love.
00:17:36.229 --> 00:17:37.797
He is the definition of true love.
00:17:37.797 --> 00:17:40.333
The third thing
00:17:40.333 --> 00:17:41.501
It says he is the creator and sustainer of all things.
00:17:41.501 --> 00:17:44.404
Just after one verse one, in the beginning
00:17:44.404 --> 00:17:46.005
God created the heavens and the earth.
00:17:46.005 --> 00:17:47.874
All things have been formed by the lord,
00:17:47.874 --> 00:17:50.510
By the god that we serve.
00:17:50.510 --> 00:17:52.745
And so i realized,
00:17:53.179 --> 00:17:54.314
Looking at this story and looking at what jesus christ
00:17:54.314 --> 00:17:57.083
Paid for us, i realized i want my faith to mature
00:17:57.083 --> 00:18:00.053
And i want to ask god, god, okay, i know you can,
00:18:00.053 --> 00:18:03.423
But even when you don't, i know you're still god.
00:18:03.423 --> 00:18:07.927
Everything changes
00:18:08.361 --> 00:18:10.196
Now let me encourage you,
00:18:10.196 --> 00:18:11.965
Because for some of you, you're thinking,
00:18:11.965 --> 00:18:13.333
But i don't have the faith to do that.
00:18:13.333 --> 00:18:16.903
Did you know
00:18:17.237 --> 00:18:18.638
In galatians chapter five, verse 22 and 23,
00:18:18.638 --> 00:18:21.674
One of the gifts of the holy spirit,
00:18:21.674 --> 00:18:23.009
One of the
00:18:23.009 --> 00:18:24.210
Fruits of the holy spirit is faithfulness in your life.
00:18:24.210 --> 00:18:27.080
They that god has placed his faithfulness in you.
00:18:27.080 --> 00:18:29.983
Meaning, when you don't have enough faith,
00:18:29.983 --> 00:18:32.018
The holy spirit will grant you faith.
00:18:32.018 --> 00:18:35.255
I've seen this so many times that in my life,
00:18:35.255 --> 00:18:37.790
Many of you know our story of how
00:18:37.790 --> 00:18:39.325
We got here to north carolina.
00:18:39.325 --> 00:18:41.327
And i still remember driving my family
00:18:41.327 --> 00:18:43.096
In the middle of the night, moving by faith.
00:18:43.096 --> 00:18:45.064
Everything packed in this car.
00:18:45.064 --> 00:18:47.567
My family's asleep.
00:18:47.567 --> 00:18:48.835
It's the middle of the night. i'm driving.
00:18:48.835 --> 00:18:51.404
And i've realized that sometimes your worst enemy
00:18:51.404 --> 00:18:53.540
Is not another person. sometimes it's your own thoughts.
00:18:53.540 --> 00:18:56.209
Your thoughts can get the best of you.
00:18:57.043 --> 00:18:58.478
Okay, this is a mind game.
00:18:58.478 --> 00:19:00.113
With the enemy, with the devil, and even your own flesh.
00:19:00.113 --> 00:19:02.815
And as i was driving
00:19:02.815 --> 00:19:04.050
In the middle of the night, i kept having those thoughts.
00:19:04.050 --> 00:19:05.485
Why don't you just turn around and go back home?
00:19:05.485 --> 00:19:08.821
This is reckless. this is dumb.
00:19:08.821 --> 00:19:10.390
You're moving by faith.
00:19:10.390 --> 00:19:11.457
Your daughter has a medical condition.
00:19:11.457 --> 00:19:13.226
Why would you move by faith right now?
00:19:13.226 --> 00:19:14.894
This is not a good time to do it. later.
00:19:14.894 --> 00:19:16.963
I kept hearing those thoughts.
00:19:16.963 --> 00:19:21.067
You know what i did?
00:19:21.534 --> 00:19:22.135
I ask god to help.
00:19:22.135 --> 00:19:25.538
I remember in that moment asking god, god,
00:19:25.538 --> 00:19:27.273
Will you just just show up and just help me in this moment?
00:19:27.273 --> 00:19:30.310
And i can't fully describe it,
00:19:30.310 --> 00:19:32.212
But have you had those moments where you pray out loud
00:19:32.212 --> 00:19:34.480
And god just gives you a peace is beyond all understanding.
00:19:34.480 --> 00:19:38.351
I felt his
00:19:38.651 --> 00:19:39.819
Peace in that moment and i felt god tell me, keep going.
00:19:39.819 --> 00:19:42.622
Keep moving forward.
00:19:42.622 --> 00:19:43.556
I will be with you. here's what i learned.
00:19:43.556 --> 00:19:45.992
God was saving me from the fires.
00:19:45.992 --> 00:19:49.329
There would be many fires i would have to go through.
00:19:49.329 --> 00:19:52.065
But here's what i learned.
00:19:52.065 --> 00:19:53.266
Jesus would be with me and every fire that i went through.
00:19:53.266 --> 00:19:57.670
Guess what?
00:19:58.004 --> 00:19:59.005
Every trial you're facing, jesus is with you.
00:19:59.005 --> 00:20:01.874
He proved it to you upon the cross.
00:20:01.874 --> 00:20:05.778
So let's continue the story here out of daniel
00:20:05.778 --> 00:20:08.281
19, verses 2719 through 27.
00:20:08.281 --> 00:20:11.751
Nebuchadnezzar was so furious with shadrach, meshach,
00:20:11.751 --> 00:20:13.953
And abednego that his face became distorted with rage,
00:20:13.953 --> 00:20:17.323
And he commanded that
00:20:17.824 --> 00:20:18.925
The furnace be heated seven times hotter than usual.
00:20:18.925 --> 00:20:21.761
Then he ordered some of the
00:20:21.761 --> 00:20:22.895
Strongest men of his army to bind shadrach, meshach,
00:20:22.895 --> 00:20:25.365
And abednego and throw them into the blazing furnace.
00:20:25.365 --> 00:20:29.235
Verse 22.
00:20:29.535 --> 00:20:30.937
And because the king,
00:20:30.937 --> 00:20:31.971
In his anger, had demanded
00:20:31.971 --> 00:20:33.239
Such a hot fire in the furnace, the flames killed the soldiers.
00:20:33.239 --> 00:20:37.410
And as they threw the three men in verse 24 and 25.
00:20:37.410 --> 00:20:41.948
But suddenly here's what i love.
00:20:41.948 --> 00:20:43.716
Nebuchadnezzar jumped up in amazing amazement
00:20:43.716 --> 00:20:46.219
And exclaimed to his advisors, didn't we tie up
00:20:46.219 --> 00:20:49.722
Three men and throw them into the furnace?
00:20:49.722 --> 00:20:52.759
Yes, your majesty, we certainly did, they replied.
00:20:52.759 --> 00:20:55.662
Look at this right here!
00:20:55.662 --> 00:20:56.929
Look!
00:20:56.929 --> 00:20:57.797
Nebuchadnezzar shouted, i see four men.
00:20:57.797 --> 00:20:59.899
Notice the description here, unbound,
00:20:59.899 --> 00:21:03.102
Walking around in the fire unharmed.
00:21:03.102 --> 00:21:05.371
And the fourth one looks like a god.
00:21:05.371 --> 00:21:07.540
Jesus is the fourth man in the fire.
00:21:08.308 --> 00:21:11.210
You know what i love about this story, though?
00:21:11.210 --> 00:21:12.712
Nebuchadnezzar is looking into the fire,
00:21:12.712 --> 00:21:14.447
Thinking that he's about to see some victims,
00:21:14.447 --> 00:21:16.482
That they're yelling and screaming.
00:21:16.482 --> 00:21:18.384
But guess what?
00:21:18.384 --> 00:21:19.385
They i believe they're dancing.
00:21:19.385 --> 00:21:21.854
I believe they're in there like,
00:21:21.854 --> 00:21:22.822
I don't know what they're doing, but, you know,
00:21:22.822 --> 00:21:24.023
They're dancing like, i'm in the fire.
00:21:24.023 --> 00:21:25.458
I can't be touched. why? because jesus is with me.
00:21:25.458 --> 00:21:28.161
And what i love about the story.
00:21:28.161 --> 00:21:29.662
They were bound when they went in,
00:21:29.662 --> 00:21:31.864
But they came out loose and free.
00:21:31.864 --> 00:21:34.600
They were completely free because of jesus.
00:21:34.600 --> 00:21:36.769
They had no burns on them.
00:21:36.769 --> 00:21:38.204
They didn't even smell like smoke, according to the story.
00:21:38.204 --> 00:21:41.007
Why? because that's what my jesus can do.
00:21:41.007 --> 00:21:44.377
He is the fourth man in the fire.
00:21:44.377 --> 00:21:46.979
He took the punishment for us so that we could be saved.
00:21:46.979 --> 00:21:50.083
Do you see that this is a picture of eternal salvation?
00:21:50.083 --> 00:21:53.953
Do you see the
00:21:54.287 --> 00:21:55.288
Parallel here that he saved us from the fire,
00:21:55.288 --> 00:21:58.691
The everlasting fire, the pit of hell?
00:21:58.691 --> 00:22:01.761
He took that price.
00:22:01.761 --> 00:22:04.230
And then nebuchadnezzar ordered them to come out.
00:22:04.230 --> 00:22:06.032
And he even said in verse 26,
00:22:06.032 --> 00:22:08.000
Shadrach, meshach, and abednego, servants of the most high
00:22:08.000 --> 00:22:11.237
God, listen to how his tone just changed.
00:22:11.237 --> 00:22:14.407
Servants of the most high god, come out
00:22:14.407 --> 00:22:16.743
And come here.
00:22:16.743 --> 00:22:19.979
Powerful.
00:22:20.279 --> 00:22:21.814
Here's what i realized.
00:22:21.814 --> 00:22:22.548
The trials
00:22:22.548 --> 00:22:23.683
That were meant to destroy them actually set them free.
00:22:23.683 --> 00:22:26.953
You're asking god not to send you into a trial.
00:22:26.953 --> 00:22:28.988
But what if it's what's meant to set you free
00:22:28.988 --> 00:22:32.625
From the things that you're facing?
00:22:32.625 --> 00:22:35.128
So my last point is this.
00:22:35.128 --> 00:22:37.797
The fire can't bind you
00:22:37.797 --> 00:22:40.400
Because the grave couldn't hold him.
00:22:40.400 --> 00:22:43.936
The trials of life can't bind you.
00:22:43.936 --> 00:22:46.105
You're not in bondage anymore. stop living that life.
00:22:46.105 --> 00:22:49.442
You're free.
00:22:49.776 --> 00:22:51.277
Okay? because the grave couldn't hold him.
00:22:51.277 --> 00:22:52.879
Let me show you some parallels here.
00:22:52.879 --> 00:22:54.981
Some revelations.
00:22:54.981 --> 00:22:56.249
The reason why i wanted to talk about the book of daniel.
00:22:56.249 --> 00:22:59.419
The first parallel was this.
00:22:59.419 --> 00:23:00.653
There are two kings who had the same arrogance against god.
00:23:00.653 --> 00:23:04.457
Nebuchadnezzar in verse 15 of daniel chapter three stated,
00:23:04.457 --> 00:23:07.360
But god will be able to rescue you from my hands.
00:23:07.360 --> 00:23:10.463
Listen to what pilate said to jesus.
00:23:11.230 --> 00:23:13.032
It's not how familiar it is.
00:23:13.032 --> 00:23:15.635
John 19, verse ten and 11
00:23:15.635 --> 00:23:18.638
Pilate stated to jesus, why don't you talk to me?
00:23:18.638 --> 00:23:21.808
Don't you realize that i have the power
00:23:21.808 --> 00:23:24.610
To release you or to crucify you?
00:23:24.610 --> 00:23:27.980
Listen to what jesus said.
00:23:28.548 --> 00:23:29.682
Do you ever wonder if jesus gonna smile and chuckle?
00:23:29.682 --> 00:23:32.618
Now that's funny.
00:23:32.618 --> 00:23:34.654
Listen,
00:23:34.887 --> 00:23:35.888
Pilot, you would have no power over me at all
00:23:35.888 --> 00:23:38.257
Unless it were given to you from above.
00:23:38.257 --> 00:23:43.796
Jesus chose this.
00:23:44.230 --> 00:23:47.567
It wasn't forced on him.
00:23:47.567 --> 00:23:50.303
He chose it through his love for you.
00:23:50.303 --> 00:23:54.507
The second parallel was this.
00:23:55.141 --> 00:23:58.377
Both were bound and thrown in,
00:23:58.978 --> 00:24:01.614
But death did not stick.
00:24:01.614 --> 00:24:04.250
Daniel three, verse 21.
00:24:04.250 --> 00:24:05.585
So they tied them up and threw them into the furnace.
00:24:05.585 --> 00:24:08.721
In march of 215, verse 46 it states.
00:24:08.721 --> 00:24:10.790
Then he took jesus body down from the cross,
00:24:10.790 --> 00:24:12.859
Wrapped it in cloth, laid it in a tomb
00:24:12.859 --> 00:24:16.262
That had been carved out of the rock.
00:24:17.063 --> 00:24:18.798
Then he rolled a stone in front of the entrance.
00:24:18.798 --> 00:24:20.933
By the way,
00:24:20.933 --> 00:24:22.168
The stone would have weighed anywhere around 2,000 pounds.
00:24:22.168 --> 00:24:24.871
Okay,
00:24:25.104 --> 00:24:26.639
But jesus was placed in the tomb on friday.
00:24:26.639 --> 00:24:30.576
But on sunday,
00:24:30.910 --> 00:24:32.845
Matthew 28, verse two through six,
00:24:32.845 --> 00:24:35.615
Suddenly there was a great earthquake,
00:24:35.615 --> 00:24:38.384
But an angel of the lord came down from heaven,
00:24:38.384 --> 00:24:41.220
Rolled aside the stone, and he sat on it.
00:24:41.220 --> 00:24:44.290
Now listen to this.
00:24:44.757 --> 00:24:45.424
His face shone like lightning,
00:24:45.424 --> 00:24:47.760
And his clothing was as white as snow, and the guards shook
00:24:47.760 --> 00:24:50.029
With fear when they saw him, and they fell into a dead faint.
00:24:50.029 --> 00:24:53.065
Then the angel spoke to the woman,
00:24:53.065 --> 00:24:54.800
Do not be afraid, he said, i know you are looking for
00:24:54.800 --> 00:24:58.838
Jesus who was crucified, but he isn't here.
00:24:58.838 --> 00:25:03.109
He is risen from the dead, just as he said it would happen.
00:25:03.109 --> 00:25:07.547
My jesus is alive, sitting at the right hand of the father,
00:25:07.547 --> 00:25:12.618
And my jesus is coming back.
00:25:13.219 --> 00:25:16.923
Please understand too.
00:25:17.390 --> 00:25:18.758
I thought about this.
00:25:18.758 --> 00:25:20.459
Jesus didn't need the angel to move the stone
00:25:20.459 --> 00:25:23.462
Out of the way so he could walk out.
00:25:23.462 --> 00:25:25.464
Jesus had already risen from the dead.
00:25:25.464 --> 00:25:27.400
He brought an angel to remove the stone
00:25:27.400 --> 00:25:29.268
So that we could witness the miracle on the inside.
00:25:29.268 --> 00:25:31.337
The tomb was empty. you realize that
00:25:31.337 --> 00:25:34.407
Jesus knew everything,
00:25:34.874 --> 00:25:36.475
But the last thing is this he is the fourth man in the fire.
00:25:36.475 --> 00:25:39.312
He is the risen king.
00:25:39.312 --> 00:25:42.915
Jesus didn't just come
00:25:43.382 --> 00:25:44.417
To rescue us from the pit of hell.
00:25:44.417 --> 00:25:48.154
He came to make death look foolish.
00:25:48.154 --> 00:25:51.290
Matthew chapter 16, verse 18
00:25:51.290 --> 00:25:52.992
Jesus stated upon this rock, i will build my church,
00:25:52.992 --> 00:25:56.195
And all the powers of hell will not be able to conquer it.
00:25:56.195 --> 00:26:00.600
You are free
00:26:00.600 --> 00:26:02.835
Because the spirit of god lives inside of you.
00:26:02.835 --> 00:26:05.771
This ministry has blessed you or helped build your faith.
00:26:05.771 --> 00:26:09.175
I'm going to ask you right now to consider partnering with us.
00:26:09.175 --> 00:26:12.678
And if you want to become a partner,
00:26:12.678 --> 00:26:14.347
All you have to do is give to bobby chandler dawg.
00:26:14.347 --> 00:26:17.183
And it helps our ministry reach people all over the world
00:26:17.183 --> 00:26:20.252
For the kingdom of god.
00:26:20.252 --> 00:26:21.754
See, it's not just a donation, but it's actually a declaration
00:26:21.754 --> 00:26:25.124
That god comes first in your life,
00:26:25.124 --> 00:26:27.760
That he is number one and that he is in control.
00:26:27.760 --> 00:26:30.796
And every giving that comes into this ministry
00:26:30.796 --> 00:26:33.499
Helps us broadcast the good news of the gospel of jesus christ
00:26:33.499 --> 00:26:37.236
All over the world, reaching homes,
00:26:37.236 --> 00:26:39.005
Even in different countries.
00:26:39.005 --> 00:26:40.706
And also it helps us reach people here
00:26:40.706 --> 00:26:42.475
In our community, help people who are in need
00:26:42.475 --> 00:26:45.578
And who need to know the love of god.
00:26:45.578 --> 00:26:48.381
And something that we're unashamed about here
00:26:48.381 --> 00:26:50.216
In this ministry is preaching the truth of god's word.
00:26:50.216 --> 00:26:54.220
So every time you give, it allows us to preach the truth
00:26:54.220 --> 00:26:57.823
Unashamed, allowing people to see freedom,
00:26:57.823 --> 00:27:01.861
Chains falling off from generational curses
00:27:01.861 --> 00:27:04.764
Because of the spirit of god, because of where
00:27:04.764 --> 00:27:07.233
The spirit of the lord is, there is freedom.
00:27:07.233 --> 00:27:11.604
And when you give, it helps us reach our mission
00:27:11.604 --> 00:27:14.507
To have people encounter god, to grow in christ
00:27:14.507 --> 00:27:18.544
And be set free by jesus christ.
00:27:18.544 --> 00:27:22.181
And so again, i want to thank you
00:27:22.181 --> 00:27:24.083
And ask you to pray about it.
00:27:24.083 --> 00:27:25.918
Do you want to become a partner
00:27:25.918 --> 00:27:27.753
And help us reach more people for jesus?
00:27:27.753 --> 00:27:31.223
Again, i pray that today's message bless your life.
00:27:31.223 --> 00:27:34.160
I'm so thankful that you watched it with this,
00:27:34.160 --> 00:27:36.829
And i can't wait to see you again very soon.
00:27:36.829 --> 00:27:36.829
