0:00

see if man continued unfallen if man continued sinless right not sinning not

0:07

sinless but not sinning innocent all right there's no guarantee that Adam and Eve if they succeeded

0:13

that their descendants won't because by then there'll be hundreds times hundreds there'll be thousands

0:20

time thousands and as time goes on the earth will be populated there's no guarantee that someone will not sin

0:26

so it's always a state of insecurity but with the Redemption of Christ God sent

0:31

his son who is the last Adam now in Christ there is a guarantee an eternal

0:39

security for all of us amen our Redemption is forever you are safe

0:45

eternally amen there's no worry about and and think about that Adam and Eve when they

0:51

were in the garden they were in charge of the Earth the Bible says for you and I through Christ Redemptive work we are

0:57

now joined as with Jesus Christ in the center of the universe and where is it

1:03

beyond the Milky Way Beyond what even the greatest uh telescope that's that

1:10

man can build can reach amen that's when my mom went through

1:18

the Angels brought her right there right through it to God's presence amen one day the Bible says heaven will

1:25

come down literally a whole city will come down on Earth right that's not a message altogether

1:31

but how many know that God gets glory god turns even the wrath of men to

1:36

praise him not that God initiates evil God cannot god is perfect goodness God

1:41

is love but God he has Glory think about it how is truth glorified how is truth

1:47

magnified in the midst of what dishonesty in the midst of cheating in

1:54

the midst of all this sin when there's truth truth is seen clearly

2:00

you see the part of God Mercy compassion Grace

2:05

love cannot be exercised even though it is inherent in the godhead

2:11

even before man fell it is there but it cannot be demonstrated unless there's sin

2:16

because Grace is for people who have sinned

2:22

yes Mercy is for those who have failed so that part of God cannot be seen until

2:27

there's a fall so I'm not saying listen that we fall so that God's grace can be

2:34

no that's how people try to pervert this but the truth is that's the truth just like truth cannot be seen unless

2:40

it's among dishonesty falsehood love cannot be

2:47

seen in his Beauty until it is among bitterness vengefulness vindictiveness bitterness

2:56

unforgiveness then there someone with love comes out like Jesus in the midst of Galilee when you walk around there

3:02

was hatred around him amen and yet he healed the sick raised

3:08

the Dead cleanse the leper beautiful Grace in the midst of

3:17

ugliness that our sins have brought into this world so the problem with the world today

3:23

all right because it saved the world save the world and that's good let's save the people

3:28

the people are causing the problems and the people are safe your will gets right there was a pastor one time he was

3:36

uh preparing his message and he could not get his message and he was it was Saturday night and he was like oh God

3:42

please speak to me give me a message Lord all right have you been there before

3:49

right and uh his little boy came in and asked him Dad can you please put this

3:55

together oh no no no no um I'm busy now uh no not put together can you help me

4:01

read to me this story then he realized that you know that behind the story there was a story about Earth the globe

4:09

and uh behind you know it was a man so he said I I think I'll make this whole

4:14

thing to a jigsaw piece so that my son will be occupied and don't disturb me I need the word from

4:21

the Lord so the son he cut into a jigsaw a jigsaw like a jigsaw puzzle and very quickly

4:27

the boy came back he says there's no way he knows how the Earth is like

4:32

and finally the boy came back he's pasted everything together and it's perfect just like

4:38

how you know the Earth is supposed to be then he said how do you manage that

4:43

behind us a picture of a man when I put the man right

4:49

the Earth becomes right got the message so the pastor got the message when the

4:56

man is right his will gets right amen it starts with us he said we are so

5:01

proud that we refuse to admit that we have weakness even and yet we saw the last time I preached

5:07

we talked about how God uses the weak things you know it's not it's not that after my weakness then am I strong I grow out of

5:14

my weakness there is a truth there out of that but that's not what Paul was saying when Paul says when I am weak

5:21

then I am strong but we don't like that you say but we want to show on on on a in the front and

5:28

exhibit through all the world is strength you know we're going to show ourselves as being capable to do it all

5:35

I'm Invincible I'm you know you know that's how we we sing and that's how we

5:41

believe and all of a sudden bang something happens to us and you know we are we are no longer as Invincible as we

5:47

thought we forget our hope is actually in our weakness our

5:54

weakness entitles us is our title to God's strength God's

6:00

power my grace God told Paul my grace is made complete in your

6:06

weakness but he said I've got no weakness right then you left to yourself

6:13

so God uses the the Jawbone of a donkey in the hands of Samson to kill one thousand men

6:19

amen God use the ox goat where you plot the goat to move it's a long piece of

6:25

but it's meant not for war it's meant to prod the the buffalo on right and he

6:31

used that in the hands of shemgar to destroy 600 Philistines

6:38

amen an Earthen vessel in the hands of 300 men 301 plus Gideon all right when

6:45

Gideon shouts The Trumpet of the Lord the son of the Lord and Gideon and they all shouted the same and they smashed

6:50

the Earthen vessel all the enemies fled what Earthen vessel and just a trumpet and the enemy is fled

6:57

amen a piece of bread and Juiced partaken amen and the tumor disappears

7:06

is because we despise weak things small things we forget the Bible says that God

7:11

uses weak foolish things ignorable things

7:17

to confound the mighty and the wise amen so

7:23

the lesson of job is very simple even though he was a righteous man in God's eyes upright in God's eyes

7:29

there was self-righteousness in him which at the end of his dealings God allowed him to be tested

7:36

he says I used to hear about you Lord but now I see you with my eyes and I uphold myself

7:45

amen straight away God restored everything he lost everything he lost

7:51

amen amen everything exactly you count the number that he lost the number is given

7:56

it's exactly double the Bible says the Lord restored double

8:02

and that's the thing that James tells us to consider the end of the Lord in the

8:07

case of job the end what did Lord Do For Him He restored everything but you say

8:12

that but the children that he lost they're the same number all right no

8:19

because you know why it's double now he has all these children and exactly the same number are in heaven

8:26

so in other words God is showing you see if God doubles the children that means they are lost the previous ones were

8:32

lost when he goes to heaven they are there everything was doubled

8:39

can I have a good amen people so he had to go through a lot God God had to challenge him about his

8:44

self-righteousness just like all of us you know we we point fingers at others

8:50

you know every time I think about criticizing someone I have to stop and and judge myself

8:56

Joseph Prince are you guilty of the same thing maybe not to the extent but the potential is there

9:02

uh or I've done it to a certain extent it's good to be like that you know why because it keeps you humble

9:10

right it keeps you humble so the lesson that God is teaching us is always

9:15

right to be conscious of weakness but not to stay there and be conscious of

9:21

Christ and his power Amen in our life amen all the the the sins that you're you know find that

9:29

makes you fall on your face all the time and you don't don't want to do it but my Temptation time you find it so strong do

9:34

you know why because you're still somehow trusting in yourself you need to come to a place where you tell the Lord

9:40

I have this weakness this is my problem you know people smoke and all that they tell you right I can stop anytime I want

9:47

have you heard that come on have you heard that all right people will drink and say I I can stop

9:52

anytime I want am I right am I right now okay and you all know the

9:57

truth you must come to a place you say I cannot I need help Amen to the Lord especially to the Lord

10:04

when you say I can't he can amen so God uses

10:10

the weak things of the world to confound the mighty a little boy not with a sword in his hand but a sling Stone to knock

10:17

down the champion the best soldier there is in the army of the Philistines amen

10:23

so God's ways uh humility even though he is an awesome

10:29

God amen his ways are all lowly stay low

10:36

and the Dew will fall on you stay low and Grace will come on you

10:41

can have a good amen Church praise the Lord all right Hallelujah you can go home now

10:48

all right so what's your weakness what's my weakness amen and maybe your weakness is that you said our past Supreme you

10:54

talk about on the road and all that you and pastor always the same actually Pastor Mark always you get the same weakness I get I don't know why because

11:00

he preached after me so maybe it's the same illustration I don't know but but uh maybe you're past Supreme I'm really

11:06

cool on the road you know I'm very courteous on the road that can be true but you you have a weakness in other

11:12

areas so it's not confined within the illustrations I use okay are you with me

11:18

so far all right so during this time of Kairos moment this is going to be cairo's year for all of us amen what

11:25

what what's Kairos again in in Hebrew in Hebrew Old Testament it is the word EV

11:31

in in Greek it is Kairos right so now is the Kairos moment so God is saying to us

11:38

today this this year especially he's going to do great things for us yes the world we get darker and doctor I always have to remind people Pastor Prince is

11:45

not talking about the world but will it get darker and darker the church will get more and more

11:52

glorious amen brighter and brighter praise the Lord thank you Jesus amen are

11:57

you part of the church and all the more we get together Church during this time and you find that we

12:02

have you know when you come together and you Worship the Lord that's a snapshot of what what will happen throughout

12:09

eternity you're actually tasting Heaven you're tasting Eternal Theory amen and the presence of the Lord with

12:15

so much more than what you experience here okay praise the Lord so during this

12:20

Kairos moment another thing that God wants to do for us and this impressed on me for a few weeks now uh I've been

12:27

wanting to share this but never got a chance to because I believe God God whatever I release in the in a particular service all right is actually

12:34

what God wants for that service even though I've prepared way ahead can be a few years even right but I only

12:42

really get to release that word if he allows me I have the release okay and I have the release to share this with you

12:48

that it is also a time of restoration that whatever you've lost whatever you

12:54

you you you feel like you have been dropped off someone cheated you you've been scammed and there's a big word

12:59

nowadays especially in Singapore you've been scammed right you say that if my stupidity is my foolishness maybe you

13:06

subscribe to a teaching that says if you it's because of your stupidity God is not obliged to help you Church the very

13:13

fact that Christ died for sinners means he dies for our stupidity

13:19

amen he didn't wait for us to become smart

13:24

and then he died for us he didn't wait for us so so I have a message I preached years ago very long

13:30

message the title is um how God helps us even in the mistakes

13:36

of our own making something like that very long right so God God helps us even with the mistakes of our own making God

13:43

help Adam and Eve redeem them putting on quotes of skin that means sacrifice blood sacrifice Amen to cover them their

13:50

sins while they were still in their sins they were hiding from God God provided for

13:57

them amen are you listening with me to what I'm saying so all our mistakes don't you think that's

14:02

self-righteousness coming in again by saying that oh no God only helped people who help themselves oh that's not from

14:08

the Bible oh yes it is it's not okay it's from Benjamin Franklin love

14:14

[Laughter] okay and and the truth be known God

14:20

helps those who are helpless we come to a place in that area you think you can help yourself there's no

14:25

Grace there God there's no power of God released there it's all you it's all your own Charisma your own skill your

14:32

own Talent which is actually based on man has expirated

14:38

it won't go so far with God's grace it goes on and on and on and that's why the Bible says they that wait upon the Lord

14:44

shall renew their strength they shall Mount up with wings as Eagles even though they are old

14:50

because wings as Eagles in Psalms 103 verse 5 says one God renews your youth like the eagles so those that wait upon

14:58

the Lord they shall renew their strength amen they shall Mount up with wings as Eagles now listen to this they shall run

15:04

and not be weary they shall walk and not feign then in case you're wondering oh yeah of course this is true love for the

15:10

young people no he's not talking about young people especially he's talking about elderly people you know why the next verse says even the youths

15:17

shall feign and the young men shall awfully fall but they that wait upon the Lord the verse

15:24

that that precedes this actually is the verse before this he says even the youth shall faint and the young men shall

15:30

utterly fall but they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength you see so they contrast the young

15:36

people it's not young people running and not be weary walking and not fainting it's referring to people that wait upon

15:41

the Lord amen praise the Lord so the word there shall

15:48

renew their strength in the Hebrew is exchange their strength literally exchange their strength strength for

15:54

strength what does it mean if if you have strength that's good isn't it but no your strength has an expiry date

16:00

why because it's human amen it won't last the rest

16:08

so when you're before the Lord that you are right now waiting upon the Lord amen

16:13

every time you spend time with God there's an exchange of strength natural strength for his omnipotent strength

16:21

no wonder you stay young and strong you will run and not be wary

16:27

amen you'll walk and not faint praise the Lord so that's restoration

16:32

in this F Hebrew Kairos moment okay

16:38

all right where do you find that Pastor I want to share with you a beautiful story that happened in the Old Testament and uh this is a story the time of

16:45

Elisha Elisha is a picture of of Grace it's a picture of Jesus Christ Elijah is

16:51

a picture of the Old Testament amen that's why uh the vast majority of his uh his miracles I actually judgment

17:00

all right judgment with a few miracles of Grace but basically judgment and the

17:05

foremost of course to call the famine upon Israel because of their idolatry okay but his successor Elisha has a

17:14

double portion he did double the Miracles of Elijah and his name Elisha has Jesus name at

17:21

the end Shah Yeshua which means my God Saves

17:27

all right Jesus is Yeshua Yahweh saves all right the Covenant name of God but

17:32

Elisha is from Elohim he got the Creator saves

17:38

Elijah is my God is Yahweh amen but here God gets personal and he comes safe

17:47

and that's why all the Miracles except for one the Miracles of Elisha are all miracles

17:54

of Grace so he followed the story now second Kings chapter eight then Elisha spoke to the woman

18:01

whose son he had restored to life saying arise and go you and your household and stay

18:08

wherever you can for the Lord has called for a famine

18:13

just like right now we are in the midst of a famine okay

18:18

there's a lot of financial upheavals happening all over the world a

18:24

lot of Financial and stability one time I was driving I told you before I drove I was driving in my car I heard

18:30

the news and it says uh we're gonna share with you crisis in the in the in a crisis in the market in the market you

18:37

know in the financial Market that Christ is

18:42

yes we don't have to worry here man he's in everything he has the preeminence

18:48

yeah for those who don't know it's crisis actually or was set but for the for the anointed year

18:56

all right it is Christ is so when you hear crisis don't worry he is amen The Great I Am is with you praise

19:03

God then Elijah says right stay wherever you can you told the woman all right the woman whose son he had restored to life

19:09

remember that that woman she actually built a little place she told her husband this man that passes by every

19:15

time he's a man of God I want to make a little room for him so they did so all right and a little room for him and and

19:22

uh they have uncovered Elisha's bedroom by the way all right in Israel and I

19:27

have taken pictures lying on his bed the soil where his bait was is like a

19:34

bait form am I right Lawrence we were there you can see Lawrence nodding his head okay and we were there at the

19:40

pastors were there I just uncovered just uncovered so the last time we were there

19:45

they just uncovered it they had to cover it because of the pollution and all the you know the the the birds might just

19:51

make holes in it and all that so they've covered but they open up and they invited me to to have a chance to go into his room

19:58

praise God I felt the anointing Hallelujah if Elisha asked Elijah for double portion

20:05

then there I pray God give me a double portion amen Hallelujah

20:10

so the woman had no son and her husband was

20:15

quite old at that time so gehazi the servant of Elisha said you know Elijah

20:22

was saying this woman takes care of us giving us a place to stay and all that provide for us what shall be shall be

20:28

done for her the seven says oh they have no son and uh Elijah called her and she stand at the doorway this time next year

20:35

you Embrace a son amen recently a lady brought a baby and

20:42

uh the testimony was she was telling me that this is the baby that you said this time next year you have a baby

20:48

when they couldn't have a baby all right and I was I was speaking the word almost the same word as Elisha did

20:54

to the woman this time next year you'll be holding a baby and she was holding it and next year she was holding the baby the child grew up

21:01

and went to the field with the mother and the father and had sunstroke I believe a sun stroke the Bible doesn't

21:06

say it all of a sudden he held his head and he fell and the mother rocked him in his in her arms and he died and you know

21:13

the story God God used Elisha to raise the boy this is a story okay let's follow on so this woman Elijah spoke to

21:20

the woman whose son he had restored to life is this arise go you and your household and stay wherever you can for the Lord has called for a famine and

21:27

furthermore it will come upon the land for seven years how long will it be

21:32

yes we know this seven cycles of famine seven cycles of plenty

21:39

what are you saying pasta Prince moving right along so the woman arose and did according to the saying of the man of

21:45

God and she went with a household and dwelt in the land of the Philistine seven years

21:52

Benny go on it came to pass at the end of seven years that the woman returned

21:57

now at the end of seven years now that the woman returned from the land of the Philistines and she went to make an

22:04

appeal to the king for her house and for her lamb why because swatters came in

22:10

the land she left the house right left house vacant and all that the land other people came in

22:17

and took her house her land then the king talked with gehazi

22:25

at the same time okay okay let me just finish it uh woman returned from the land of the Philistine she went to make

22:30

an appeal to the King right at the time the king for a house and her land then the king talked with gehazi at the same

22:36

time the King was talking with Elisha's servant

22:42

and the King was saying to the servant of Elisha gehazi tell me please all the

22:49

great things Elisha has done so of course there are a lot of things Elisha did right

22:55

as he came to the part where Elisha raised

23:00

that woman's son from the dead guess what happened next verse now it happened as he was

23:06

telling the King how he had restored the gate to life how Elisha was had restored

23:12

the day to life that there was the woman whose son he had restored to life there

23:17

was the woman this reminds me of a church I know who

23:23

steamed this year is no not Kairos you must say the whole

23:31

thing chirosi of the right time right place

23:36

so let's see from the word of God which God actually gave it to me to tell you

23:42

all there's restoration coming because if right time right place see

23:48

what happened as he was telling the king how Elijah restored the data then there was the woman whose son he had restored to life

23:56

appealing to the king for her house and for her land and he said my Lord O King

24:02

this is the woman and this is her son whom Elisha restored

24:08

to life it happened now was the accepted time that Kairos dectos moment for that woman

24:18

okay and when the king asked the woman she told him so the king appointed a

24:24

certain officer for her saying restore all that was hers and all the proceeds

24:31

of the field from the day that she left the land until now

24:37

no you didn't get it yeah before you you shall listen what he gave her not just

24:43

restoration of the what she lost much more

24:49

restore all that was hers and all the proceeds of the field

24:56

from the day that she left the land until now every prophet

25:05

that happened because of the land make sure she gets it so restore the house restore the land is

25:11

one thing it's good restoration already but all the proceeds from the day she

25:16

left seven years you know seven years of profits back pain

25:24

so God is saying when he restores and we we've been teaching this

25:30

right if you're listening you'll hear that God always restores much more

25:37

you lost a loved one you lost an item you lost money you lost that

25:42

relationship you lost whatever it is and you lost that that sense of being close to God especially you know that you've

25:49

been longing for all this time I remember when I was younger I would Worship the Lord and I feel God's

25:54

closeness and nowadays I don't know why I don't feel you know if that's all that listen especially that part of your life

26:00

goes in restore with much more so you won't have to look back to your younger years

26:06

you know and and there's a verse in the Bible it says in Ecclesiastes those who say that the best best days are in the

26:12

past are not wise that's the verse and it naturally says it's those that say that the the good

26:18

years are in the past are not wise yet I myself am guilty of this many times I think back about the past I think about

26:24

about those good days those good years and all that and uh and and I think about a lot of things about the past I

26:31

think about the revivals of the past I think about the man of God that was there in the past and uh God would tell

26:36

me God gave me this verse actually for me not for you all uh you're you're very present and forward-looking you know but

26:42

but for me for me okay so um it came as a review God says say the

26:48

days that have passed are better is not wise amen open your eyes to what God is doing

26:53

today he has not lost the formula to make Mana

27:00

history can provide for you every day he has not forgotten how to open a way

27:06

where there is no way and three million people cross as on dry land he has not forgotten how to bring

27:13

meat for you all to eat every single evening

27:18

he has not forgotten to be compassion because they become compassionate in fact David one times has a lot forgotten

27:24

to become passionate amen it happens to man human nature no he is the same yesterday today and forever so in the

27:32

midst of famine he wants you to know one thing not only will he provide for you now religion will tell you God is good

27:37

and God just provide for you that's religion all right but only Christianity has that Grace Element no that's not

27:44

God's way God supplies with much more much more left over that woman got restored but with a 120 now the reason

27:52

we say 120 is because of the teaching there is uh five offerings in The Book

27:58

of Leviticus all right the first one is burn offering then we have the meal offering grain offering then we have the

28:03

the uh peace offering then we have the sin offering then we have the something

28:08

called trespass offering the King James or guilt offering okay now the in the

28:13

guild offering let's say it's stole from someone for example your sin was that you stole from someone and then later on

28:19

uh you realize that you have sin and all that and uh you want to be right with God back in the Old Testament they'll

28:25

bring a ram they'll bring a ram the ram is a picture off

28:31

Jesus amen a male lamb is a ram it's a picture of Jesus without blemish

28:36

so you bring it to the priest all right but if he has stolen from someone right

28:42

it's not just the lamb has to pay for his sin all right he has to make recompense he has to make a restoration

28:49

reparation that's how your lawsuits all happen in the judeo-christian values and

28:54

principles that make up the the Bedrock of legality all right taught in

29:01

all civilized countries in the world is based on principle of Leviticus

29:07

morality is based on the Ten Commandments right amen of course true morality comes from

29:15

the heart and that's based on Grace amen but it governs the world outwardly

29:22

it examines the world and if the world will abide by this outwardly even right it will prosper

29:30

amen so here we go the principles of that now I'm going to show you an example uh show

29:35

them leptica six if he has sinned and has realized his guilt and will restore what he took by robbery or what he got

29:40

by oppression or the deposit that was committed to him or the last thing that was found now always stop and ask

29:46

yourself why did God write all these things down for you to fill up space is it so they make his Bible thicker

29:52

no every scripture is God brief does he speak to us now yes if we have eyes to

29:58

see and years to hear so definitely it's referring to all of us who have sin am I right amen we've all sin okay and uh or

30:06

anything about which he has sworn falsely so he covers everything um uh in this category here he shall

30:12

restore it he shall restore it and one in full and shall add a fifth to it

30:18

so in full a fifth two is what A fifth one twenty percent so in full it's 100

30:25

you must restore it hundred percent and then add 20 for reparation and that's

30:30

based on the legality out there and that's why when someone does wrong and and they are compensated they are not

30:36

compensated just with the amount they lost the person will have to pay one

30:42

the damage the damages am I right amen now don't be so crazy okay

30:49

but my wife is so possible there you go again Pastor Prince you're so corny okay

30:55

he shall restore it in full and shall add a fifth to it and give it to whoever belongs on the day he realizes guilt

31:01

next verse he will bring to the priest as his compensation to the Lord a ram without blemish this refers to Jesus so

31:07

of course all sins are forgiven by the blood of Jesus does it mean that

31:13

today you make reparation it's kind of hard sometimes the person that you want to you want to make reparations to is dead

31:18

sometimes the plate doesn't exist anymore okay and uh

31:24

so the thing is it's like like the thief on the cross he's a thief he tells Jesus Lord remember me when you come into your

31:30

kingdom right remember that was he safe what did Jesus tell him today you shall

31:36

be with me in Paradise now Jesus didn't say you know what the Bible says right

31:41

go down make reparations right he didn't tell him go down make reparations 120 and the people say I

31:49

want to but I'm kind of stuck so just know this okay so why was it

31:56

written in a way God hides pictures about his son you know who is the one that makes

32:01

reparation today Jesus Jesus but Pastor Prince Jesus never

32:06

sinned you're right he never sinned but he took the place of the person as if

32:12

his sin that is you and I on that cross God made him who knew no

32:17

sin my son's latest memory verse you get him at night I say second

32:23

Corinthians 5 21 oh he was he he who knew no sin was made sin for us that we might be made the righteousness of God

32:28

in him I don't care whether he memorized like a parrot or not one day that verse will speak to him just put it there just put it there I

32:35

just put it there amen amen it's a great memory verse God made Jesus who knew no sin to be sin

32:42

for us that we might be made the righteousness of God in him so he took our place he took the place as if he's

32:47

the person who lied who extorted who stole swore falsely or whatever it is

32:52

the part of a sinner and I think the place is the most like perfect man which is

32:58

Jesus sinless perfect right the Divine Exchange took place so

33:04

who is the one that becomes liable for my sins Jesus therefore the one liable for all these sins must be the one to

33:10

make reparations am I right so there's a verse in the Bible that says this in Psalm 69 it says

33:17

this they that Hate Me Without a Cause now this is a Messianic verse and I'll show you why they hate me without a

33:22

cause all right but it's a long verse and it ends with then I restored that which I took not away now why do I say

33:29

it's a Messianic verse Pastor Prince how can you say that here it says Jesus said I restored that which I took not away

33:35

he didn't take it away but he restored it got it then the question comes

33:41

why do you say this is referring to Jesus maybe David is talking about himself right good question that's why I quoted

33:48

the first part they hated me that without cause this verse and I told you what it's a Messianic

33:53

verse why because Jesus listen Jesus quoted this verse in the upper room

34:00

referring to himself in the upper room he says they were they were sent some of you they will kill some of you they

34:06

would persecute you right because they hate hated me this is what he said in the upper room John 17 15 but Jesus is

34:13

talking but this happened that the word might be fulfilled which is written in their law they hated me Without a Cause

34:21

he's quoting what psalm 69. if he went on quoting he also said that I restored that which I took not away

34:28

got it so in other words Jesus became the one on the cross to give back to you

34:34

what you have lost and not just what you have lost in the mentality of humans all right men today

34:42

they can't go beyond you know reparation uh in in terms of restoring something

34:47

back like you would restore a sofa set you will restore your non-resource

34:54

leading nowadays they just buy a new one okay restore parts of your car and whatever you restore you repair is

35:01

usually not as good as the original am I right so it's better to buy an

35:07

original sometimes you know what I'm saying because you know you'll break down again but when God restores when God repairs is always

35:14

greater in quality or quantity David lost a son

35:21

all right and the next son from the same woman Bathsheba was a seven-fold quality

35:27

Solomon amen among the sons God chose him to succeed his father

35:34

if you lost a loved one right you lost your husband doesn't mean God will give you seven husbands

35:40

let it be past the prince no no you cannot handle it

35:46

all right but God will give you a seven-fold husband amen yeah when he plays games he takes off

35:53

his shirt only seven four okay okay seven blocks seven blocks amen

36:00

amen like me when I take out my my you know my t-shirt or whatever my son has

36:06

learned to say washboard keep on confessing son keep on confessing praise

36:11

the Lord anytime anytime right Justin and I had this thing going he will say washboard I love to hear it

36:18

amen you're teaching him to lie no

36:23

the Bible says we call those things that are not as though they are

36:29

the nature of God God saw Darkness God didn't say Darkness God said light

36:34

a man he's calling forth amen and I'm seeing it happening really

36:40

I'm seeing it happen amen now Paul Walker accidentally it goes four ways

36:47

jealous right never mind he's got to work hard for it comes by grace

36:54

so this verse is quoted from Psalm 69 so Jesus restored what he did not take away with me so far

37:00

listen the cross itself gave us back look at Psalms 5 again

37:06

we go into some sorry Romans 5. God demonstrated right there just now

37:12

now much more than having now been justified by his blood the church has not even touched on the

37:19

much more the church has not even touched under much more

37:24

you see that woman did not just get back her house and her land maybe you get back to your house after

37:31

seven years someone else stay in it do you think what kind of what kind of quality is it

37:36

you know but she now she has the money from seven years profits to make all the repairs and

37:42

Renovations she needs if plenty left over amen

37:49

don't you just love God so here

37:55

you find five times in one chapter Romans five Romans 5. number of

38:03

Grace Romans 5. five times it's mentioned Much More Much

38:09

More Much More Much More Much More what Jesus did is much more and the

38:17

church hardly touches on this

38:23

look at this much more than having now been justified by his blood are you all justified by his blood

38:29

shout amen well if you are listen much more

38:35

we shall be safe from wrath through him God tells you straight away we're not

38:40

going to the Great Tribulation because the seven years is known as the day of God's Wrath

38:47

see so the Rapture must happen before the tribulation

38:55

good news good news the Bible calls it a blessed hope to say that we are going through it

39:02

what blessed hope amen but to say that we won't be going

39:07

into through it yes that's blessed hope amen but we'll experience the birth pangs

39:15

but all these are just the beginning just imagine if the real thing happens on this Earth is going to

39:22

be terrible and the Bible says the tribulation is such like the nothing ever seen since the beginning of the

39:28

world unto them you're going to be around and that's why the Bible says Jesus when at the end of seven years he comes back

39:35

right he comes back with his Saints we're already there praise the Lord

39:41

amen so here it says we shall be saved much more we shall be saved from wrath through him for if when we were enemies

39:47

we were reconciled to God through the death of his son much more having been reconciled we

39:54

shall be saved by his life so every day now very safe right this

39:59

verse means having been reconciled right that means what having been reconstop

40:05

means very safe so the next save cannot be referring to the safe that we had when we experienced being

40:12

born again safe from Eternal destruction and Damnation amen We Are Forever safe right doesn't refer to that it refers to

40:18

what saved by his life much more now we are safe which much more we shall be saved by his life

40:23

we have extra now which means every day his life is Flowing out of us is saving you from your unclean habits

40:30

it's saving you from your bad responses it's saving you listen even bodily in

40:35

your mind saving you from depression from from from feelings of isolation abandonment is is saving you from all

40:42

that by introducing his love to you every day

40:48

it makes you know that you love you are loved amen and

40:54

also your body it saves you you must believe that his life saves you bodily

40:59

is I uh nowadays you know we'll say probably to our friend

41:04

you know or you forget ah yeah nowadays are getting getting you see out of your

41:10

mouth so the Bible says God God talks like this God calls those things that are not in existence yet

41:18

as though they were in existence and then they become

41:24

have you noticed that Jesus never confess the present situation

41:29

all right until his disciples are so dense they don't get it this Lazarus is sleeping I go and wake him up Lazarus

41:35

died already if he's sleeping let him sleep

41:41

lazil I don't want to go then Jesus says Lazarus is dead

41:47

right Jesus tell a man whose hands is withered

41:52

he has not been working with the hand and right hand Luke tells us because he's a doctor Luke says right hand

42:00

and just stretch off your hand you don't tell people whose hand is withered to stretch forth unless you're calling those things that

42:06

are not at present as though they are and they will be

42:12

in the future amen just as a man who has been important in

42:17

his feet for 38 years stand upright on your feet and the man stood up you don't

42:23

say that unless you see the things that they don't see you see the supply all over him you see

42:29

the kingdom of God come you see all the provisions around him you see the health and the Shalom wholeness abounding on

42:35

him then call it off amen so we have the kingdom of God already here

42:41

in the spirit we have it and what we are doing when we call forth is not trying to create something that wasn't there

42:47

before we I actually bring things in the spirit realm into the physical into the material

42:54

are you with me so far once you know this you can't be alone anymore because wherever you go you will see Angels

43:00

around you all right don't talk to them talk to Jesus

43:06

all right you talk to them you know they will move away you talk to Jesus and you see Jesus best of all with you all the

43:12

time you see the provisions in the midst of in the natural dislikes so they gave

43:20

Jesus Five Loaves and two fish it is getting good come on gave Jesus Five Loaves and two fish Jesus how many

43:25

loaves do you have only Five Loaves two fish he's talking about feeding five thousand people plus women and children

43:31

probably ten thousand okay he asked them how many loaves do you have Five Loaves two fish I uh only uh

43:38

Singaporean response all right another response I don't know

43:44

which country La what do you think I am someone to fool around with I'm your boss you know okay

43:51

also Singapore yeah Singaporean response amen you know what he took the Five Loaves

43:56

five love and and you read carefully in the Greek it is two small fish it is a diminutive term two small fish

44:03

like sardines maybe right small two small fish and he'll lift up

44:08

what do you do he thanked God for the little and little became much and later on with the Holy Spirit spoke

44:15

about that narrative about Jesus multiplying the laws and Fishes the Holy Spirit put this word after the lord gave

44:22

thanks maybe you give thanks you keep on complaining about that part of pain that

44:28

you have maybe you thank God for all the rest of the health you have who knows it will multiply to envelope and to

44:34

overwhelm that pain thank the Lord for what you have and it multiplies the Lord does not ask you for

44:40

what you don't have so what is this among so many one of them says to Jesus what is this five

44:45

laws in another gospel what is this amongst so many the eye is like little is you see I told

44:51

you God used the little things the weak things the insignificant things I qualify

44:57

I'm in are you with me so far oh man time is flying and I'm gonna bring this to a close

45:03

praise God okay bring it yourself close listen God never asked for what you don't have he asked for what you have

45:09

all right to uh Moses who was stammering and stuttering and he was shepherding

45:15

the flock at the backside of the mountain Mount Sinai and he got he saw the burning bush and God spoke to him

45:22

for the first time he fell down and he was trembling and then he said I I can't speak I I I I I I I stammer I I I'm not

45:30

eloquent then God says what is that in your hand

45:35

God never asks you for what you don't have to you you despise little things that

45:41

you have my house only have you know only God says what do you have what is that in your hand a rod listen with that

45:48

rod he fed and let three million people for 40 years in the

45:55

wilderness because when God takes what you give him even the little things

46:02

God put his spirit and his power on it a woman whose husband had passed on and

46:09

she was the husband owed a lot of money and the creditors are coming to claim her sons as slaves because the husband

46:16

did not pay for it all right the alarms the money lenders they're coming okay and then Elijah came in another

46:23

miracle of Elijah a miracle of Grace and Elisha says to her what what do you say

46:29

what do you have in the house isn't it obvious that they are now in abject

46:34

poverty they have nothing and and we always say I have nothing and yet there's something

46:42

I was tempted to go down I was reminded about the war down the party becomes shorter

46:48

no they are concerned they are fall off you see they do not know sometimes one day what happened I just walked

46:54

there and I walked back again and that may happen all right because because I always have

47:02

problems walking right that's my weakness in my weakness his strength is made

47:07

perfect amen it's not because you have something else okay back to this again don't distract me after the last moment

47:12

right it's your fault okay listen he asked what do you have in your house

47:17

and she says I only have a small small flask of oil

47:23

okay go borrow empty jars go borrow empty vessels

47:28

empty vessels right not how to fight him

47:34

okay never mind you get the joke you get the joke find empty vessels that make a lot of noise okay go find the empty

47:42

vessel all right bring them into okay now stop pouring now again calling those things that are not you don't pour a

47:48

little floss a little small flask of oil but when you start pouring the more she poured the more she poured the more she

47:54

put the more she poured the more she put the more she bought more Jesus plucked and pieces of bread to give to his

47:59

disciples the more was given and he kept on giving until the people says enough and after that 12 basketful left over

48:07

amen and and and after that Elisha asked bring me one more jar one

48:13

more empty vessel and the son says no more we collected only this one and the oil stopped the oil didn't stop because

48:20

not enough Supply from Heaven the oil stopped because they limited him

48:25

they limited the supply the limitation is always our sign

48:31

to outside has no limit the Bible says they limited the Holy One of Israel and yet Elisha says sell all

48:40

this empty vessels not full of oil pay off your debt and listen not just pay off your debt lift off the rest

48:47

120 percent can you see that this woman they were

48:52

right about restore to her all that's hers and her land

48:57

and every proceed every benefit every prophet

49:02

from the day she left until now seven years

49:08

are you with me so far he never asked you for what you don't have

49:16

as always what do you have ah this is just ah just a small you know that shows me despise

49:24

small small things we don't realize how God can use like I told God last time he says I'm going to use you to speak to

49:30

many he said I said the Lord I pitted him no I felt for the Lord said no I I'm a stutterer I'm a

49:37

stammerer and the Lord says I'm going to use that so Lord I Surrender this to you you can

49:44

use this I surrender to you that's why I always know I always remember there is a Jacob's style about me in this area

49:51

I know what it was amen and doesn't mean that today I depend

49:58

upon my ability or whatever I dare not if I come up to preach I always ask the

50:05

Lord right give me that remember what it's got to be a realm I pray for all of you

50:10

amen even like praying in the floor of the spirit and all that I do not know until the last moment

50:16

okay I do not know someday he will leave me like that to depend on him

50:21

because sometimes my preparation is my strength it doesn't want me always to so

50:26

something is not just things like this I hope you understand a bit of the ways of God it's not that like the ways of men

50:33

and I pray that this will give the assurance that whatever you have lost in this Kairos year of the right time and

50:40

the right place is all coming back and not just coming back what you have lost in a repaired way like the way man

50:47

would do it but in God's way worthy of his glory

50:54

worthy of his omnipotence amen when God does it it's not like man

51:01

amen is going to be great Hallelujah but don't expect the manner of man all right expect

51:08

sometimes it may come from places you least expect

51:13

you're going for a trip you're going for a meeting along the way you bump to

51:19

someone so what happens that woman came when King was saying yeah tell me more tell me all tell me what Elisha did

51:27

and this part he must have told the king a lot of stories by Elijah but this part is about raising the sun this is a woman

51:33

and that will happen to you and that's why when these things happen the reason we have a theme of the Year

51:39

God is a team of the beginning of the year so that when it happens you know it's God

51:45

without the theme of the year you might not just say oh yeah just I'm like here that's the worst thing you can say

51:53

okay lucky friend

52:00

he's got your back he'll provide for you I didn't even show you Romans 5 the one that you all know

52:06

it says in verse 17 there are five much more right he says what for If by one man's sin offense Adam's

52:14

sin all right people die death rain right it goes on to say much more those

52:22

all of you who receive what abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness well

52:29

what reign in life that's the much more that's not being preached we are just

52:35

happy to be safe happy to be reconciled instead instead of saying that much more we shall be saved from wrath future amen

52:42

having that assurance and for the lack of that people people are suffering depression and fear and all kinds of you

52:48

know all kinds of crazy doctrines come out of that amen or here this area is not raining in Life or God expect us

52:54

just wait for Jesus to come and then just just barely get by no friend rain in life means rain in life

53:01

not Amber in life what does the king do He reigns that's

53:06

why when you speak there's power and it happens much more those who receive abundance of grace these twins

53:13

all right abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness and that's why I preach on these two so much why I want

53:19
