    00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 5th November 2015 titled Jesus Christ said Only Believe. Only believe. Brothers and sisters, this title is actually important for us because it determines a lot
    of things for our lives.

    00:22 It includes me even now. There are many things I struggle to believe and I begin to pray, you know, and I’ve not completely succeeded in many things. But all of us is a journey.

    00:34 We are ambassador of Christ walking. This is not our home. Our home is heaven.

    00:39 We are citizens of heaven. As we walk through, we face many issues and we have to believe in Jesus Christ. But by mercy of Jesus Christ, we walk this life, including me.

    00:52 And there are things that my faith may not hold, but my belief will be in Jesus Christ. And whatever happens, we accept. Because all things work for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose.

    01:06 This scripture. You must anchor yourself to a few scriptures that will see you through in times of difficulties. Brothers and sisters, Brothers and sisters, today we are dealing with issues on healing.

    01:19 Healing again. There is a thing in science, the thing in medical science or medical practice says placebo or placebo or nocebo. Placebo is when no treatment is given and suddenly these people are healed for something.

    01:38 Let’s say they give them a false pill. In experiment, one group got a real pill, the other group got sugar pill. And the sugar pill people also get healed.

    01:47 Means it’s called placebo. The medical profession try to push it away, you know, placebo, placebo, don’t bother about it. No, if a person getting healed, who cares whether it’s placebo or any other thing.

    01:59 And then the medical profession has another thing called nocebo because they say something and then people end up having that. For instance, somebody say the doctor says you only got four months to live because cancer spread so far and wide or
    whatever, very deep, you only got four months to live. And many of these patients, in fact most of the patients die within time.

    01:59 And then the doctor so thrilled that his estimate was so good. Actually that’s actually utter stupidity to even rejoice because you estimate of somebody dying within four months and then giving a decision to say you cannot die because of the
    statistics that shown to doubt with doctors. Some doctors have become robotic.

    02:42 They are living in a world of statistics. Oh, you’re sitting so far, so it’s only six months. Put your life in order, affairs in order, that kind of things.

    02:50 And obviously finished. So, brothers and sisters, today we look at what are the. Some experiments are done, for instance, as I Said we are living in real life.

    03:04 So some doctors, actually still many doctors become robotic. They train as robots. They do not want the patient is not looked at.

    03:11 Maybe they got problem in their own homes, maybe they got problem in their own lives. And then that mess up and they come. They are human beings also.

    03:18 So we must love them. We love them and say, okay, but our faith must go in Christ. But many don’t have Christ, so their faith goes into many who have Christ.

    03:27 Or so their faith goes into the doctors who say something. Now let’s look at some of the experiments, some of the results that medical science has gathered and kept. There was this case, you know, they took two groups, they got knee.

    03:42 Knee problems and they needed knees surgery. And so a group of this in Finland, so group of people wanted needed knee surgery. So they separated them two groups.

    03:55 And because you know, they do the local. They. They not nowadays anesthetics they can give you and you’re still wide awake and you can see all happening, but you don’t feel the pain.

    04:06 They. They did that kind of anesthetic. And one group, you won’t feel the pain, but you can see in the.

    04:12 In the TV monitor what’s going on, how they operating your knee and all that or whatever. So this, this kind of science is there. Those of you do not know, but many already know, that you can have some kind of anesthetic, that you can see what’s
    going on, but you don’t feel pain in that area of your operation.

    04:27 So. So one group actually had an operation knee operation. Another group, they didn’t have a knee operation.

    04:34 They told the doctor to pretend to have a knee to give the knee operation. So the patient looking at this TV monitor sees this operation be conducted and all. And then they found over time, both the groups, they found that both the groups actually
    healed.

    04:49 The one with the operation of course healed. And the one without the operation also had a similar result of healing. And the ones with the operation.

    04:57 Why? This is because of belief. The people believe this. They had operation.

    05:02 So although they know operation, their mind has believed they got operation and the body healed it. Now there’s not another there many cases, hundreds of cases. But of course remember medical science when they show us the med.

    05:14 So many statistics, statistics, as they say in mathematics, are sometimes they say it is what they. What they. What they reveal is important.

    05:25 Yes, important, crucial. But what they conceal is vital. What they consider is why the height is very vital.

    05:32 They hide. Statistics can be manipulated. So brothers and sisters.

    05:37 So statistics are statistics. They can manipulate by manipulated by human beings. They give you the right statistics for you to be boosted up or brought down.

    05:45 Now brothers and sisters, now today there’s another case. What happened was there is this man. Now this is all long ago this man had they called lymphatic sarcoma.

    05:58 I think sarcoma kind of cancer like orange sized balls form in your growth in your lymphatic system. Under your armpits, under your throat, under. Wherever the lymphatic node side becomes a like orange size ball.

    06:10 And it’s dying, so it’s dying. But that at that time there was this experimental drug called I think Crevisone or something. And.

    06:18 And they said cannot get it because you must be able to leave more than the patient must have more than 3 months possibility of leaving. Otherwise the doctor cannot recommend for the test trial. So this man couldn’t get it.

    06:29 But he was begging his doctor again and again and again. Finally the last day the doctor decided forget about it, let me help this fellow and just give him the cravisone. So.

    06:40 And of course he will die because the cravison really not all that effective. But these fellows. But nobody knew how effective it was.

    06:46 It was experimental drug. But this fellow was begging and crying with the doctor on and on. So the doctor gave him.

    06:51 And to his doctor’s surprise over the weekend he found this fellow walking when he came back from the weekend gave him on Friday night and went off and came Monday. The fellow was walking and within 10 days all the things had disappeared. Now couple
    of months it was fantastic and all that he’s healed, completely healed.

    07:06 No more of this cancer. And suddenly the news report comes out the caron actually they found that it’s not as effective as they believed it should be. Immediately the cancers returned.

    07:16 Within a few days the cancer returned. And this is all belief problem. So.

    07:21 So it was a plusbo that you know you can be healed with your belief. And you got this thing and then the thing doesn’t work. Also you healed.

    07:30 And then the no sibo when they say it doesn’t work. And all it now whacked him. And then the doctor took pity on him and decided to tell him look here I. I got a.

    07:39 This crevice on the day giving there is all diluted and not the one I gave you the last time. You know, I’m giving you extra special high strength and all that. And I they gave him.

    07:49 The doctor gave him because took pity on the flood. Decided to fake the thing, gave him that and soon enough everything is fantastic. He Healed and all.

    07:57 And he went on for a while, for a few months, I think. And then suddenly FDA is somebody big announcement. Clarizone really does not work.

    08:06 Does not work big enough on papers. Within a few days the man dies. So this is placebo and nocebo now.

    08:16 So these things go on. These things go on. Now the situation believe so now.

    08:22 So one other group decided, okay, placebo, no sibo, we should not do this. What other things? Because they also found. One other study found that when the.

    08:32 When the doctors caring for this. They study doctors caring for people and told them this is. This drug is actually what I’m giving you is actually nothing.

    08:41 It’s actually non effective drug or just, you know, it’s a sugar water or something. Okay. Then people still healed.

    08:53 So they were wondering, they were told it’s plus it is no effect. It’s just go water. And people are self healed.

    08:59 They found that it’s because of relationships. They found that relationship good relationship with people because they tended to them, they felt cared. When they felt cared, they also got healed.

    09:09 They felt cared, they also got healed. Friends and sisters, this plausible not simple situation. But our Jesus already told us this.

    09:16 Now let’s get back to the what of Jesus Christ, the son of a living God, the husband of our souls have told us this. So for instance, in Mark 9:23, Jesus said to him, this is the leader of one of the leaders of Israel has come, his daughter is
    dying. And Jesus said to him, if you can believe.

    09:35 Oh, this is another case. This is the man his son being thrown into fire and like epileptic fits and all that. So yes, if you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes all things, not some things, all things are possible to him who
    believes.

    09:53 Now that is, I’m reading from the King James Version. Now the Amplified Version says, Jesus said to him, all things are possible for the one who believes and trusts. And trusts in me.

    10:06 Take another scripture before we go further. Yesterday I was quoting a wrong scripture. Brothers and sisters, 1 Corinthians.

    10:14 It’s actually 1 Corinthians 15:10. First Corinthians 15:15:10. Apostle Paul says, by the grace of God, I am what I am in 1st Corinthians 15:10.

    10:24 Now next scripture. Luke 8:50, Luke 8:5:0. Jesus tells to this leader of Israel, one of the leaders of Israel, his daughter is dying.

    10:33 Do not fear. Only believe and she will be saved. Only believe.

    10:39 Now the question is in Amplified. That was in Catholic edition. I read now we read the Amplified.

    10:45 But Jesus hearing this Answered him, do not be afraid any longer. Only believe and trust in me and have faith in my ability to do this and shall be safe now. That is why they also found a good relationship with people, good financial status.

    11:02 That means there are no owing and this and that. They also found that, you know, happy people live something like I think seven or seven, 14 years longer or something. So all these put together is in the spirit.

    11:17 First it’s in the spirit. So what we believe can kill us or heal us. And some belief will be so deep rooted we need to meditate and examine.

    11:31 You need to meditate and examine yourself. Where is the belief coming from? It could have been an incident somewhere. When you’re young, somebody told you this and it impressed upon you, or somebody bullied you, did this or whatever, or frightened
    you and the thing sitting down there.

    11:43 But all this can be cast out in the name of Jesus Christ. First of all, cast out the spirit of fear in the name of Jesus Christ and all that. Now brothers and sisters, I’m also not in some areas, I’m still not completely in this perfect situation.

    11:58 So also remember when I’m talking to you is also convicting me as I told you all the day. So I’m also in some areas I’m also, oh, praying harder, praying more this way, praying why? Commanding my heart, praying more that the issue in the the name of
    Jesus Christ. I command my heart and mind to believe something, to believe something.

    12:14 And then after that I correct all this rubbish from the world and all that that also affect us. Now they found that how does this happen? When they believe with him? When they believe. When they believe that this thing, test, this new drug will do
    something for them.

    12:31 They become relaxed. When they become relaxed, good chemicals flow. Dopamine, nitric oxide, I think nitric oxide.

    12:39 That nitric oxide is a healing, healing, healing hormones will follow. So night nitric oxide and nitrous oxide. I forgot, I forgot.

    12:51 So no. 2 I think it says now then you have if a bad feeling. No, not relaxed.

    12:58 And Allah all the troublesome cortisol them all cortisol comes. Whatever God created is good. Cortisol is a hormone that makes you now run away or take action or whatever.

    13:11 That’s a good hormone. But what happens in our modern day life? You go to office, stressed out, got to soul, all flow. But after a while these things have settles down.

    13:18 You must relax and all. But what people do after all, they begin to go heavy jogging, competitive sports or whatever. Cortisol increasing, come back seeing a movie or whatever.

    13:28 A fear Movie, you know, horror movie or whatever. And then that becomes more cortisol based. So the cortisol and all these hormones, on and on.

    13:37 The hormones are needed for you to take some action. But if 24 hours the hormones go on and on, then of course the body begins to get damaged and die now. So therefore when we have this thing, no competitive sports after your whole day.

    13:52 Stress is not good. People go for walks and all that is good relaxation. God wants us to relax.

    13:59 And America science now shows relax means righteousness, peace and joy. Now if you are having financial stress, borrowed here, borrowed that, this and that. That keeps on hammering you throughout.

    14:09 Of course you fall sick. That’s why Jesus said what he told us already. Seek the kingdom of God, righteousness, peace and joy.

    14:15 And all this we added joy, righteousness, peace and joy. Now the medical science cannot take away the sin in power of Jesus Christ. We can overcome sin, we.

    14:24 Because sin also harms us from inside. Sin. Oh, when I was in adultery like that.

    14:29 When people are in adultery, they got all kinds of shame, puts on the soul all kinds of stress goes on inside there. Brothers and sisters, these things are real. When you’re unseen, you have no peace, no joy.

    14:41 Then all the time this cortisol and everything will be running not bad hormones, they’re good hormones, but they are running all the time. Because we put ourselves in the cort condition. So only believe.

    14:52 Believe what? Trust in Jesus Christ. Because the medical sign, even they give you a placebo pill, the medical sign cannot solve the sin issue, cannot solve the Satan coming to steal, kill and destroy. Cannot solve the spirit of anger.

    15:05 Spirit of anger coming on and on. Because somebody provoking you, they can say relax. But supposing you got like when I was in doing all the rubbish, how can my wife relax every day? I know, relax, although it’s nothing to do with her.

    15:18 So other people can be causing you all this. So therefore only Jesus Christ only believe and believe in his ability to do this and trust in him. So what we do, so what I have to do is I have to prepare prayers, the conditions I’m facing and begin to
    command my heart and mind to believe all the time that this is what God will do, this is what he has promised.

    15:40 And begin to hammer my heart and mind, the name of Jesus Christ, renew my mind with the word of God, the promises of Christ. And that has to change. It has to begin to renew my mind and all the other things also.

    15:51 Even this cough and distant thing off and on. Even today I have some cough. So it may be the haze and all.

    15:58 But the haze is now no more than a few days. So that injury has taken place. So even this now I got to make some prayers and begin to make me believe.

    16:05 Make me believe. No, make my heart and mind believe that Jesus has healed me. And this has to change.

    16:10 My heart, lungs have to get strengthened. All this I have to do just like you, brothers and sisters. Put a list believe in and trust.

    16:18 He said by my stripes you were healed. So I now must believe that. Because even the cancer patient, of course it could be chemical cost him or something cost him.

    16:27 But finally he healed because he believes, isn’t it? But in our case we can believe. Take out the sin, overcome our fears, have righteousness, peace and joy. Must have joy.

    16:35 They found people with joy live much longer. This all proven by our God, Jesus Christ. Long, long time.

    16:41 Two thousand years ago he’d written all this already. We just have to now take it now. Medical sign coming along and showing this.

    16:47 Thank Jesus Christ gives us some better understanding maybe. But Jesus already told us. In Jesus name I pray.

    16:54 We do this every day, brothers and sisters. Amen.

    00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 4 November 2015 Self confidence versus God confidence self confidence versus God confidence. Brothers and sisters, today this is a very important topic. Why in
    fact every day when God teaches something, it is important.

    00:02 Brothers and sisters, I myself, when I wait on the Lord and begin to speak, speak into this phone to record or whatever, this recorder, I find that while the words are coming out, I am either being convicted of things that I did or didn’t do. And
    then the meantime I will be asking sorry Lord and changing my life. My life changes because the word of God convicts me.

    00:47 And at the same time God reminds me of so many things and at the same time my life is getting better. Better because the word of God changes us. So it is also I am benefiting from doing what he told me to do.

    01:00 Brothers and sisters, the words of God, they are life. They are life to us. So when the words of God are quoted from here and then some explanation I am giving as the Lord leads me.

    01:13 And of course there are times I will be talking. It may not be the Lord what I experienced, I just saying to explain to people, but whatever is wrong, I asked God for forgiveness and I explained the next day I was wrong or whatever. And remember a
    few weeks ago I had to even record and say I sinned yesterday.

    01:33 So God wants me to be truthful to anyone, everyone. And this recording after I passed on and gone back to the Lord by God’s mercy, there’ll be people listening. They wouldn’t know that I’m not around.

    01:46 So. But these things only God can do. Brothers and sisters, today the title is self confidence versus God confidence.

    01:55 This has become a big issue in the business world. You know, when very young itself, we pick up information without knowing, you know, that we must be self confident. We must depend on self dependent, self dependent, self confident.

    02:13 Why we must provide. Especially the boys, this generation Z boys, I don’t know what’s going on because of all the hammering they get from the EMF and the estrogen and what have you and the bombarded false information and the temptations and all the
    Z generation, I pity them. They are rarely under stress and they end up following wrong things.

    02:38 But even that time itself, we didn’t have this kind of temptations. But we have been built into believing that I must be self confident, I must be self dependent, I must provide. Especially the boys at that time, when they grow up, they provide for
    the family, provide for our own family, parents and all that.

    02:54 And therefore brothers and sisters, and now motivational books. After that I grew older. 18, 17, 18.

    03:02 Reading motivational books and all that. And these motivational fellows, they taken the thing from the Bible only. But the only thing, they won’t let you.

    03:10 They’ll make you self confident. Self confident, Self confidence. So today we have to see Scripture.

    03:14 What is this? Is it self confidence? We must have self confidence or not? Or is self confidence good or is self confidence going to damage us? 2 Timothy 1:7 says, I’m reading from King James Version. For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of
    power and of love and of a sound mind. Many times that of power and of love and of sound mind is interpreted that, yes, I must be able to do because it has given me power, love and sound mind.

    03:41 I must be confident. And I must do this in Hebrews 10:35. I’m reading from the Catholic edition.

    03:51 Do not therefore abandon that confidence of yours. Do not therefore abandon that confidence of yours. It brings a great reward.

    04:00 So can you imagine the Scripture itself here, the way it’s written? Do not abandon the confidence of yours. It brings great reward. So people begin to think that I myself self confident.

    04:12 And it makes sense. Do not abandon the confidence of yours. It brings a great reward.

    04:17 But let’s read that is why when we reading Scripture and trying to understand what God’s Word is, God’s word says in the Bible, line by line, precept by precept, you’ll understand him and his words. Line by line, precept by precept. First of all,
    line by line, we begin to read and meditate and against the conduct, our conduct.

    04:40 Only then our conduct will change. We begin to read the line of Scripture and the precept it must settle with the precept of Christ. Precept of Christ is all things are under his feet.

    04:52 So now that’s one of the precepts of Christ. All things are dead. His name is higher than all names.

    04:58 Therefore, confidence of yours is definitely not here. Meaning confidence of yours is not confidence in your in you, confidence in you. It’s a confidence of yours.

    05:10 You have some confidence. But that confidence is confidence on what? If that confidence of yours is confidence based on what your confidence is on what is it? Confidence on you or. Or the things around you.

    05:25 A confidence on the world, confidence on the job, confidence on our skill set, our professionals, our confidence on our exams, confidence on our qualifications. Confidence on our training. Confidence on our training.

    05:37 Confidence on our monies that we have. Confidence on the advice we get from the various counselors doctors, lawyers and engineers and all that. And, and biologists and maybe oncologists or whatever confidence on the advice we have received.

    05:58 What is the confidence on now? We’ll Go further. Romans 7:18. Romans 7:18 Is this for I know that in me that is in my flesh nothing good dwells.

    06:15 Nothing good dwells. This is the Apostle Paul saying in Romans 7:18. He knows.

    06:21 He says not believes. He knows that in me, in himself, in his flesh nothing good lives. There’s nothing good in our flesh.

    06:30 John 15:4 6. Abide in me. Abide in me as I abide in you.

    06:39 Just as the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. Unless you live in me, unless you continue in me. 5.

    06:50 I am the vine, you are the branches. That means I am the vine. Means you know, the vine of the, of the tree, wine of the.

    06:58 Of the grape tree or grape plant, and you are the branches. The vine is the main trunk. Those who abide in me, and I in them, bear much fruit.

    07:08 Because now this is Jesus saying, because apart from me you can do nothing. This is Jesus Christ saying to her, the husband of my soul, telling me, son, apart. Now, son means of course, the spirit man in you, sister.

    07:23 So he’s calling you son also. Because the body also woman’s body, but the Father, God’s spirit in you. He’s calling you son also son, because apart from me you can do nothing.

    07:33 Nothing. 2nd Corinthians 3:4 6. Such is the confidence that we have through Christ to towards God.

    07:43 So our confidence is what? That we have true Christ towards God. It’s God’s confidence that’s going to settle us. It’s God’s confidence.

    07:53 Not that we are competent of ourselves to claim anything as coming from us. Our competence is from God. So our confidence must be in God.

    08:03 Brothers and sisters, using these few scriptures, now let’s look at our life. Let’s say we study, study hard. So some people say, wow, that child brilliant.

    08:11 No exams also clear. It’s a very false statement. And you are actually encouraging future damage.

    08:19 Future damage? Why? First of all, you must remember, if only we study, we study, we study. Confidence in our own study. Confidence in our own study.

    08:26 Then we must remember this. We are discounting the other players in the world, the other players in our life. There is Satan, who came to steal, kill and destroy.

    08:36 And he is not staying still. He is on around the clock. He is working.

    08:40 Why? The demons do not have to sleep. The fallen angels do not have to sleep. Our physical body has to sleep.

    08:46 But our spirit man is not sleeping. That is why do not let the sun go down on your anger. Means don’t keep your anger and go to sleep also.

    08:53 Because your anger is in the spirit world. And it is anger or spirit. It keeps whacking our spirit man while our body is sleeping.

    09:01 Therefore you get up also not rested. All kinds of problems. Now brothers and sisters.

    09:08 So if we say confidence, the fact confidence should be in God. Self confidence is actually sinful and destructive. Self confidence will bring self destruction.

    09:18 Self confidence will bring pride. Self confidence is antichrist. Because he says, there’s nothing you can do apart from me.

    09:30 John 15 Nothing you can do. Nothing. No, not some things.

    09:32 Nothing you can do. That is why if you say, okay, I study hard, son. Study hard, daughter.

    09:40 Study hard. Exam tomorrow. Study hard.

    09:43 And then we discount God. What happens at the day of the exam? Let’s say the car accident somewhere somebody’s accident. You’re not.

    09:51 Thank God you didn’t get accident. But somebody else also feels sorry for the people they got accident. Big jab.

    09:57 You can’t reach the exam in time. What happens at the exam? Your brain, your head got a headache and you can’t think or you forgot things. Because that is why our confidence.

    10:09 Self confidence is actually very minuscule. It has no power to support every other factor that is showing up in our daily living. Cannot.

    10:20 We must have God confidence. Must go to God. You study hard because God told you to study hard.

    10:25 You go and further then, Lord. That’s why before studying, you start praying. Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth, have mercy on me.

    10:32 I thank youk for giving me this. I command my heart and mind to only have faith in youn, not to have faith in my own self. I will study hard.

    10:41 By youy power and mercy, I will study hard. I can do all things through youh, and I can do nothing apart from youm. Therefore, Lord Jesus, you must be here with Me.

    10:49 I am in youn, you are in me. Make me pass this exam, Lord, and then make me settle you protect me from every danger. As I go for this exam and sit.

    10:59 I pray for mercy, Lord, that give me good results. Now same thing. For instance, putting faith in man.

    11:07 God said, do not put faith in man. This I’ve taught my wife from the beginning. As soon as I came to the Lord, do not put faith in me.

    11:14 Does that mean she doesn’t trust me? No, she trusts me. In fact, trust me completely. In fact, I believe that because her actions clearly show she trusts me.

    11:23 Completely. And I trust her completely. But I told her, you can trust me completely, but you cannot put faith in me.

    11:29 Why, I am a man and I am limited. Your faith must be in Christ and you trust your husband. Yes, but your husband may not be able to do things.

    11:40 You can trust your husband when I say, tomorrow, I will do this for you. Now, by mercy of God. By grace of God.

    11:48 That is why in First Corinthians 15, I think 5, 10 or 15, he says, 510 or 15 10, I forgot. 5 he says. You know what Apostle Paul is saying? He’s saying, by grace of God, I am what I am and I labour more, work harder, more, you know.

    12:10 Then in James There is James 4. He says, There are two fellows talking. We’ll go to the town, we’ll spend a year there.

    12:17 We’ll do business and get some profit and all that. And God says, you fools, what happens? Your life is called tonight. Your life is called tonight.

    12:25 That’s why you must say, if the Lord wills, God willing. By mercy of grace. Mercy and grace of God.

    12:32 By mercy and grace of Jesus Christ. By the grace of Christ. So brothers understand, we have to get into God confidence.

    12:41 Confidence in God, confidence man, be confident who also gave us our breath. I got breath today to do this. Therefore I said tomorrow I’ll get up and do this.

    12:50 Brothers and sisters, it’s only by the mercy and grace of Christ. Why, suppose I really cannot get up tomorrow morning at all. My intention is good so you’ll trust me when I say I’ll do this tomorrow.

    13:01 But unwritten condition is for me all the time. Even when I say or doesn’t say, I know deep in my soul it’s only by the grace and mercy of Christ I can do anything I do. Therefore when you put our trust.

    13:14 We trust our husband, we trust our wives. But our faith is in Christ to settle our husband or our wife. Our faith is in Christ to settle the man.

    13:25 A man says I’ll do tomorrow, suddenly he cannot do. You better have the right heart and say maybe they couldn’t do yesterday I was talking about the self seeking destruction. Oh, they never do for me.

    13:36 They never do for me what they never do for me. You say maybe they had something because they are not in control of their lives. There are issues in life, brothers and sisters.

    13:46 God confidence is settled through God. Confidence is actually God. We seek God.

    13:51 God seeking. Not self seeking, but God seeking God confidence. God confidence.

    13:59 God confidence is absolute. I am the way, the truth and life. When Jesus says something, we have confidence in that why? He is the truth and he cannot lie.

    14:06 He is the truth and he cannot lie. God, only God can settle everything. So now take other cases, for instance, even whatever you do, a musical instrument.

    14:20 Oh, fantastic player. This, this pianist is solid. What skill set she’s got, hey, Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

    14:28 The skill set. The word God doesn’t get up when we get up in the morning. God doesn’t tell us.

    14:33 You know, last night I protected you from another attack. Last night you know, there was the devil wanted to bring your roof down and kill you all. I protected you.

    14:40 He doesn’t say anything, he just keeps on protecting us. But we take it for granted. You know how many things, million things that have saved me.

    14:47 But I’m going on the road. He would have protected me from another car just coming and whacking me. And suddenly we see the car go by and we say, thank Jesus Christ.

    14:55 Thank Jesus Christ. Because why the Lord could have knocked us. Nothing to do with our driving.

    15:00 Something to do with this. The devil tries to do things, but Jesus protects us, but he doesn’t claim credit for it. But we know in our spirit God loves us and he does it.

    15:11 Self confidence is destructive. Just like self seeking. Self confidence is destruction.

    15:16 Self destruction, God confidence, God seeking. Give glory to God. Because without him you cannot do anything.

    15:24 You cannot do. Apart me, you can. Apart from me, you can do nothing.

    15:28 What do you mean? So if a person says, and you cannot go and tell this to an unbeliever and say, can you see tomorrow I will come there and see you. By God’s grace, Jesus Christ’s grace, I will see you. The unbeliever will say, what do you mean
    you’re not going to turn up? Is it you don’t tell that to the unbeliever.

    15:43 But if you tell that to your brother and sister, tomorrow I’ll see you brother, I’ll do this for you. By mercy and grace of Christ. If that man says what you don’t do, then he doesn’t understand scripture.

    15:53 Actually he’s still having self confidence. His confidence is in man. Then you have to explain to him all these.

    15:58 Give him this segment to read. Please listen to this brother. Because we must say God willing, God’s grace, God’s mercy, Jesus Christ, mercy and grace.

    16:06 I will do this for you. Why we want to do. We are trustworthy, but we are not in control.

    16:12 There are other elements that we are discounted. The Satan and what we sow, we reap. Oh, I will do, I will do.

    16:19 We cannot take up all the issues we are showing in the study, study, study. We’re showing. But the meals you forgot to take nutritious food.

    16:28 Suddenly there’s a fever or something. You cannot stop. Didn’t bother to take care of the dangly water in your area.

    16:35 You cannot take everything. So therefore self confidence kills you. Because self confidence.

    16:40 Okay, I’m so into study, study, study. But you’re not sowing into your health. How are you going to control that at the exam day? Brothers and sisters? Nothing like God.

    16:49 Confidence. Have confidence in God, in Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Because everything is under his feet now.

    16:56 The name above his name, power of Christ will see you through. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

    AI-generated transcript below — please excuse any errors

    00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, the power of Christ Daily Today 3rd September 2015 titled Self Seeking Causes self destruction. Self seeking causes self destruction. Christ seeking gives great life.

    00:15 Christ seeking gives great life. Brothers and sisters, I too was self seeking before and it caused me a lot of distraction. Now first of all, remember this in James 3:16, James 3:16, I’m reading from the King James new King James Version.

    00:35 For where envy and self seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there. Where envy and self seeking exist, James 3:16, confusion and every evil thing are there. Now remember Jesus Christ was selfless in Philippians 2, 8, 10 we have seen he
    humbled himself even to the dying time.

    00:59 Also he humbled himself to obey. Nothing about him. It’s about us because he loves us.

    01:04 Now, brothers and sisters, I’ve seen this. Self destruction is a very big term I’ve used. Very dangerous, very alarming term.

    01:12 I’m going to discuss some cases, some issues over the years I’ve seen. Now some Bibles will say selfish ambition. Selfish ambition, yeah, it means the same.

    01:24 But many people don’t get it. Why I am not ambition. Take a house.

    01:28 Homemaker, housewife they call it. Homemaker. I am not ambitious.

    01:34 And so self selfish ambition, it doesn’t happen to me. But self seeking is actually self seeking is this. It’s about you and your child, your family may be and your husband, your child, not so these in various aspects.

    01:49 For instance, a homemaker is. Whenever you’re doing something, it’s only about you. I need to do this, I need to do that.

    01:57 Or you’ll tell your this is how it should be done. Because I like it this way. This is how.

    02:01 This is how. You won’t say I like it that way, but actually that’s what it means. This is how.

    02:06 This is how it’s done. And envy. Envy means they have that I must have this.

    02:12 I don’t have this. They have a better kitchen. I don’t have the better kitchen.

    02:16 I need a ghetto kitchen. And then I must have it this way. And then you manipulate your husband or talk to him in such a way you know that it’s really needed and all that whatever.

    02:26 And all this is envy and self seeking. It’s about self, how you want it. Where there exists confusion and every evil thing are there.

    02:35 Every evil thing means all the demons already there. All the demons are there and they finally destroy you. God seeking Christ seeking his great life.

    02:45 So people say, what nonsense is this? For instance, in work. No, everything I must have, I must have. I must excel.

    02:54 I forget about these people, forget about my friend or neighbor, whatever. I must excel. So I won’t tell them this, I will tell them this way.

    03:01 And then you begin to manipulate because why you want that promotion and you want the promotion, why somebody else got a promotion? And what happens, you know, confusion comes confusion. When I talk to these people, you’ll find the answers don’t
    make sense. When you ask, when I’m counseling, when I ask some question, the answers even for the normal, sound mind, normal person also it doesn’t make sense, unbeliever.

    03:23 Also it won’t make sense. It’ll be Confucian. No, they tell you one thing here and then tomorrow, later within the same council, they tell you something else.

    03:30 They are in confusion because every evil thing already there. Why self seeking exists. So you take for instance a single, a single girl once married, oh, she will do selfie this way, self did that way.

    03:44 Selfies, you know, selfies, they forget when they’re not taking the selfies. Because selfie you can put on the first front, fantastic picture, you can put for yourself within a great great green, painted your face properly or whatever nicely painted
    up and oh, selfie this way, that way. But when you’re sitting quietly in the car and you’re not doing this, when people look into your car, then when they see you, you’re now in your own mind, you do some rubbish.

    04:07 People think they are in the car, people nobody can see inside, they will be digging their nose or something, you know. So now and then this same girl dress up this way, all self to the extent when supposing they are going to a party, oh, they want
    to make sure that her friend, they may be good friends and the two girls, but she’s a boy, she wants a boy. They don’t care about the friend.

    04:30 No, I want, I want Destruction finally comes. Destruction. No, terrible destruction.

    04:36 Confusion also will be there. And then they begin to tell something to lie and all that. Why confusion has come.

    04:42 Every evil thing has come to have great life, you must be God seeking selfless. Selfish is different from self seeking. Selfish is you have something you don’t want to share, you don’t want to share, you want to keep yourself, you don’t want to tell
    people you have it.

    04:56 And whatever you can do and do not do is sin, by the way. So as a pastor and a servant of God, if I have something, I can tell people, even outside people who are not Christians, if I can do something for them and I don’t do it is sin. So I must do
    so.

    05:12 What you can do and do not do is sin. So praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth for that command. Now every command of God is for our sake, to improve us, to settle us.

    05:21 God clearly said this is a fantastic command. Understanding self seeking and envy means confusion. Every evil thing is there and we can get out.

    05:30 We can start commanding our heart and mind, examining ourselves in every circumstance. For instance, let’s say a widow or a single woman, that girl got a good husband, that girl got a husband, I want a husband, I want a husband. And then in the self
    seeking mode, envy will come.

    05:48 Envira that one, that woman got a good husband, I don’t have, you know. And then same thing, widows, same thing. Self seeking, self seeking.

    05:57 Confucian there all the time. Confucian. And every evil thing.

    06:00 And whenever people are self seeking, I see they actually are ungrateful. Also very ungrateful. They don’t themselves know because they’re captive, they’re already captured by the devil.

    06:12 Because every evil thing has come captured by the devil. So they’ll talk to you as they talk to you in guile and deception. They’ll put on a front and hello pastor, how are you? This and that not true.

    06:22 And then they actually hello brother, how are you? Hello sister, how are you? You know, brother or sister, you didn’t do this for me. I was waiting, you know, I needed it and all. But you check the self seeking people, they’ll never do anything for
    anybody else.

    06:35 And whenever they do something for somebody else, there will be some self seeking there. I have seen women, you know, who, when supposing somebody coming to the house and one particular boy, brother or sister coming into the house, they’ll do some
    special dish, why they want to impress that particular sister. So they cook.

    06:56 That woman cooks, that girl cooks a better dish. Because impressed a girl or want to impress a boy or whatever. Self seeking in many ways it will come.

    07:04 So it is for you as a child of God to know God, your father God, son of the living God, the husband of your soul already said envy and self seeking is going to destroy you. Confusion will be there. And confusion no.

    07:17 Oh, when they’re coming, they keep quiet. They won’t say, but they’ll be acting uncertain, confusionly, saying things wrongly. And then anybody say no, no, no, we’ll be rushing to do something.

    07:27 Why confusion has taken place. Every evil thing, they can’t even see. Everybody can see already everybody can see this.

    07:35 Every evil thing has come. Self seeking is there. Very ugly spirit is there.

    07:40 They themselves cannot see. And what we do, we must pity them. But at the same time we cannot encourage self seeking envy.

    07:46 I’ll have to put a stop and say look here, I cannot do this for you. And when self seeking, you know, my child, oh yo, you all didn’t do anything. Nobody did anything for me, no.

    07:56 And then you check a list would have been done for them. They never, they are ungrateful, they wouldn’t check that. But they’ll say no, I waited, no.

    08:04 And then they didn’t do for me. They won’t think so much this person has done for me. So much they’ve done for me.

    08:11 They didn’t do this for me. Maybe they are struggling, maybe they’re not well. Maybe they got so many things to do.

    08:17 No, they don’t come to them because evil things have captured them. They only think they didn’t do for me. They didn’t do for me.

    08:23 They didn’t do for me. My doctor. Wow.

    08:27 Maybe that person, the pastor, the brother, the sister maybe couldn’t do today. Let me call and find out. Are they all right? Are they all right? Can I do something to settle you? No, it will never come because self seeking is so rooted inside that
    you’ll never think of that other person suffering, you know? And many times the godly person will be suffering and you won’t know.

    08:47 They’ll just do for you. They’ll be suffering but they’ll do for you. Why? They are disciples of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

    08:54 They love Jesus Christ and their heart is surrendered to Jesus Christ and they want to please Jesus Christ. So they’re suffering, they will get up and do. But you self seeking soul, oh, they never do for me.

    09:07 And they do something, they must be doing something for somebody else. They are doing somebody else, but not for me. Ungratefulness come.

    09:15 Unthankfulness will come and destroy them. Now in places they sell mlm. I’ve sold the MLM before now what to do, how to sell this thing, how to sell this thing, how to get this thing.

    09:27 I must get this money to buy. Not besides thinking I must sell this, I must finish my quota not thinking whether this person buys and then will they have enough money, will they suffer after that? Maybe you have convinced them so well because your
    logic is so good or whatever and they put in money and that send out the money for the month for them to. They’re sacrificing for something else.

    09:47 Sacrificing from some other budget. Don’t want to think, you know, just want to push the product. Self seeking and envy why? Oh, other fellow did better already.

    09:57 I must do better. I must do better. Envy, confusion, every evil thing is there.

    10:02 Self destruction is round the corner. Round the corner. I have seen this repeatedly.

    10:06 Self destruction coming. Sure. Come, there’s no escape because it is God’s word.

    10:12 Every evil thing out there means it’s destroying you already. Destroying you already. It’s finished now.

    10:21 Self seeking ministry. Oh, I want more people in this church. I want more people in this church.

    10:27 You see, the other church, plenty of people, more church. So I will do this, I will do that. Not one stopping to think.

    10:34 What does the husband of your soul, your lord and master, to whom you have declared to be a servant unto? What does he want? Does he want you to compete with the other church? Or does he want you to do the right thing? For one soul, just one soul
    for God is worth more than the whole world. He told us. What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his own soul? Lose his own soul.

    10:55 What does it profit a man? So why wouldn’t you? For God, he said, look here, son, one soul. Dharma is early days, you know. I already know.

    11:09 God said, look, yes, I am one soul. I’m telling you, not even worth the whole world. It’s more than that, it’s worth.

    11:17 So what would you do as a servant? Seek the soul, settle the soul. But no comparing. Comparing.

    11:24 Envy, self seeking, self seeking, destruction. And these people with self seeking, they never improve. Why? Something will grow.

    11:33 They’ll keep on taking from people. I call them those days before born again. There are two kinds of people.

    11:38 I will say, I say there are two before born again. Two kinds of people. One the takers and the other one the givers.

    11:44 The people who give. And there are people who just take and take and take and take. Never give.

    11:51 Never even think of giving. Can you imagine why self seeking, envy, the confusion, every evil thing, it’s all about them. That is why forever their life is not changing forever their life is mess.

    12:03 And for their life forever they’ll be complaining. I have nothing, I’m suffering. The more they come, I’m suffering, I have nothing.

    12:10 Then nobody helps me, you know, nobody helps me. You know, the more destruction and more destruction. And this goes on in a cycle, goes on one cycle all the time.

    12:19 Brothers and sisters, self seeking and envy is a terrible thing you have to examine because it’s destruction, self destruction. You don’t want to be destroyed. I’m sure you’re listening to this now.

    12:31 The problem is I’ve not all the idiots I was in churches. I never learned this from them, you know, I never learned people, they might have read this scripture in passing, but not drilled into us. Hey, self seeking will kill you.

    12:45 Envy and self seeking confusion. Every evil thing is there. Whenever people are confused, immediately servants, pastors, check.

    12:51 Whenever people making sentences, statements to you that are not logical, not reasonable, not reasonable, immediately seeing where is the self seeking? Where is the envy? You check, you will find it, because God will show you. And then you tell the
    brother or sister, brother, sister, your problem is self seeking and envy. That’s why you are suffering.

    13:11 Nothing to do with people helping you or not helping you. Nothing to do with your examination or not examination. Nothing to do with your children suffering.

    13:11 Nothing to do with you being a single woman or a widow or a married woman or whatever. It’s because of self seeking and envy. So, brothers and sisters, check this among ourselves first.

    13:27 And then of course, take a log out of our own eye. Take a log. I must take the log out of my own eye before I look at the speck in my brother or sister side to see how to settle them.

    13:38 Self seeking, whenever you see, self seeking will never understand. They would have. People would have done so much for them.

    13:45 And yet it was in the heart that I would do. They forgot all the rest earlier. Now they’re only looking at the next issue.

    13:52 Next issue. Nobody helping me. Nobody helping me.

    13:55 And self seeking. Envier, when you can get others to do something they won’t do, they’ll get others and they’ll put on this ugly spirit of pity. Self pity, ugly spirit.

    14:05 Oh, nobody help me. You know, victimized spirit. No, very ugly spirit.

    14:11 When I see it. I see the spirit before the brother said to open the mouth Today I know this is a terrible spirit. After a while God will tell.

    14:20 God will show if you don’t examine yourself. After being corrected by two or three brothers and sisters. Sudden destruction.

    14:27 That’s the scripture you know. After being repeatedly corrected on and on. So brothers and sisters, I’m telling you, anyone with this self seeking business, after being told people, hey, care for others, why you always complain other people don’t do
    for you all that they’re telling? And repeatedly you continue doing.

    14:45 Sudden destruction. God says self destruction is explosion. Self implosion, explosion.

    14:51 Brothers and sisters, no need. Christ seeking gives great life. Christ seeking great life.

    14:57 So everything you cry out to Christ and you say what you must do. Today I get up. What I must do.

    15:05 Not what I can get from people. What I can get people. This fellow must help me.

    15:09 That fellow must help me. No. What I must do as I begin to do Great life comes because selfless.

    15:16 I must command my heart and mind in the name of Jesus Christ to be selfless today. Why? Because our hearts are like that command. And Jesus has given his name, his blood to wash us clean and to command our heart and mind to be selfless.

    15:31 Selfless. No more self seeking to be God seeking. God seeking in the name of Jesus Christ.

    15:37 God seeking get great life through. I’ve seen these cases who’ve changed from self seeking to God seeking finally have great life. There’ll be many testimonies even in this own congregation.

    15:49 But there are still some in this congregation that I minister have this envy and self seeking going on and I pity them because self destruction coming and keep on telling them, not listening what to do. We can only tell. We are not dictators, we are
    not the police, we are not soldiers, we are not human soldiers.

    16:02 We are not prison wardens. We can only tell. And after the cry for mercy from God, brothers and sisters, everything we do check for self seeking and then turn it into Christ seeking.

    16:19 What does Jesus Christ, the husband of my soul wants me to do in this instance? And I will endure. I will pick up my cross and walk, walk. I turn the other cheek, I give away the next shirt or whatever I go in Jesus name I get up and walk.

    16:36 He suffered for me. I take up my cross and walk. I will not be depending just people must help me, help me, help me.

    16:43 And then I will say I want to help people. I want to help people as you begin to say I want to help people. Oh things life begin to change.

    16:50 Jesus Christ will move for you. In Jesus name I pray Amen.

    20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,
    21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

    AI-generated transcript below — please excuse any errors

    00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 16 October 2015 Fear God or fear or love God? Fear God or love God? Now this used to be a good big confusion for me. Even when I first came to the Lord, this used
    a confusion. But I decided, look, fear God and love him at the same time. So I decided that because whatever God says is true.

    00:27 But when people ask me this or when I ask people that, why God saying fear God and also love God? What’s going on? People can’t understand, they can’t answer. So they got a confusion here. That is why we have to look at the whole counsel of God.

    00:46 The whole counsel of God is in the Bible. We cannot take piecemeal one scripture and then decide that this is what it says. We cannot do that.

    00:54 Because we do that, we will fall into big error and make ourselves a mess. That is why today, God is leading me today to talk about this. And this is a very important topic.

    01:06 Because you as servants, as pastors, as ministers, as children of God, as saints, whoever you talk to, you must be able to answer these things and secondly, apply it yourselves. Fear God or love God. First of all, let’s look at the fear God part.

    01:24 Proverbs 1:7. I’m reading from King James Version. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge.

    01:32 But fools despise wisdom and instruction. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge. That means if we don’t have fear of God, the Lord Jesus Christ or God Almighty God, Almighty Father God and Jesus Christ are one.

    01:47 That priesthood has been settled long ago. If you don’t have fear of the Lord, then there’s no knowledge. That means if you have leaders of a country, any country for the matter in the world, there are hundreds of countries, hundred of our
    countries.

    02:02 So if you don’t have fear of God, these people don’t have. The leader doesn’t have fear of God, then obviously he won’t have knowledge and then he will do all kinds of wrong things, thereby praying for people to have wisdom. Especially there are
    people praying for people for the leaders to have wisdom.

    02:24 It is not useful. But to pray for the leaders of a country to have fear of God, to fear of God. Because you pray Lord Jesus Christ in the name of Jesus, even his name as Christ, please give them wisdom.

    02:39 God will say it’s against my word. They must first fear God. So sometimes people say, I pray that the leaders of this country or that country have wisdom to run the country properly.

    02:51 Brothers and sisters, God’s word is clear. Fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge and wisdom. Actually, some translation will tell you wisdom.

    02:53 Fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge and wisdom. How to have this? So when we pray for leaders of country, leaders, Lord Jesus Christ, in the name of Jesus Christ, I pray that the leaders of this country, or whichever country you are in,
    to have fear of God. Fear of God.

    03:15 Okay, now this fear of God. Now. Luke 12:4 5.

    03:17 Luke 12:4 5. I’m reading from the Catholic edition. I tell you, my friends, do not fear those who kill.

    03:27 This is Jesus Christ talking. This is Jesus the Christ, the Son of the living God. The husband of my soul is telling me.

    03:35 I tell you, my friends, do not fear those who kill the body and after that can do nothing more. But I warn you to whom you should fear. I will warn you whom to fear.

    03:48 Fear him who after he has killed, has authority to cast you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him. In fact, some persons go on to say, destroy both body and soul in hell.

    04:02 Destroy both body and soul. I fear him who can destroy after killing, you can destroy your body and soul and you can destroy everything. Fear Him.

    04:12 This is what the various translations tell you. Do not fear those who can kill your body, because who can kill your body? The human beings and also demons can kill your body. If you are not having protection of Jesus Christ, you do not have
    protection of Jesus Christ.

    04:29 The demons, the devil can kill your body. But do not fear these fellows. Do not fear the human being.

    04:34 Do not fear the devil. Because if you come to Christ, of course he gives you power over the devil. Do not fear these people, these human beings and the devil, because whom you should actually fear is fear Almighty God, who can also kill your body if
    he wants.

    04:51 But he’s not going to do that. This age of dispensation is giving allowance for all of us to turn to him and come through His Son who has died on the cross and given us his blood to wash away our sin. And he took our sins to believe in His Son so
    that.

    05:07 So the age of dispensation is giving us a chance to turn to God through Jesus Christ. By letting Jesus Christ, believing in him, who took our sins, and then God and we are reconciled. So fear God who can kill your body, can kill your soul, can kill
    everything, destroy you in hell.

    05:24 Fear Him. Now. So this comes to the issue, how come now? Fear God or love God? Love God with all your heart.

    05:35 Love God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength. And love your neighbor as yourself and you will live now. So which is which? Brothers and sisters, this is no more a dilemma.

    05:46 Listen. If you listen attentively, go back, praise Jesus Christ, take the scriptures, take the emails and read the scriptures and make it understand yourself. Because in this 15 minutes, what I can do, I can tell you here and there, you meditate on
    the scriptures and you become that.

    06:03 God will bless you, Jesus Christ will bless you. Brothers and sisters, just you read the scriptures, meditate on your actions, your conduct to see whether you’re fitting there or not. And command your heart and mind in the name of Jesus Christ, to
    do what the Scripture tells you.

    06:16 Become a doer of the word. You are blessed. You will be blessed.

    06:20 This is a guarantee. This is guaranteed. Not from me.

    06:22 Guaranteed by Jesus Christ of Nazareth, the son of the living God, who cannot lie because he is the truth. Brothers and sisters, now we look at. There are two sections here.

    06:33 First of all, before we came to the Lord Jesus Christ, before we came to God, we were doing, I take, I was doing my own thing, doing whatever. All sin did not even have a concept of sin. Many times there are sins I’ll consider as right, you know,
    can you imagine? There are times I have my own logic, because there’s a logic, you know, there’s a philosophy.

    06:53 Here we create ourselves. I’ll read some philosophies and create something for myself. One philosophy was to overcome temptation is to first commit it.

    07:02 That means if I’m tempted, the only way to overcome temptation is do it. That means I’m tempted to drink. Booze means go and drink it and the temptation is over.

    07:12 Can you imagine that stupidity I was in, but made sense to me at the time, you know, it made perfect sense. Yeah, I cannot take it. I must drink.

    07:20 Oh, I must go and do lustful things, lecherous things, Sexual immorality. To overcome sexual immorality, sexual temptation. How to overcome is go and commit it.

    07:31 Can you imagine the damnation I was creating for myself? Yeah, I finally got into a real mess because sin was begin to harm me. And merciful God turned me to Jesus Christ. So this kind of stupidity will happen in the world.

    07:47 People will come with all kind of philosophies and all that. Oh, don’t fear God. There are people in Christendom.

    07:53 No, don’t fear God. God is love. God is love.

    07:56 Don’t fear God. But why did Jesus say fear him? Jesus Christ saying, you know the word of God. So these people and some people will push away, they say, no, no, no, God is love.

    08:08 Even your sin and all Is okay, that’s not true. 1 John 3, 8, 9 Reading from the Catholic version, everyone who commits sin is a child of the devil. 1 John 3:8, 9 Everyone commits sin as a child of the devil.

    08:23 9 He says, those who have been born of God do not sin. This means practicing sin. That’s why I’ll read From Amplified Now.

    08:29 First John 3, 8, 9. He who commits sin, who practices evil doing, is of the devil takes character practicing sin or takes character from the evil one. For the devil has sinned and violated the divine law from the beginning.

    08:43 The reason the Son of God has made manifest visible was to undo, destroy, loosen and dissolve the works of the devil. You see, Jesus came to undo, destroy, loosen and dissolve the works of the devil, which the devil already done. 9.

    08:58 No one born or begotten of God deliberately, knowingly and habitually practices sin. So there are two elements here. Before we come to the God Almighty, we are in sin, we are committing sin.

    09:10 We must fear God. And fearing God is the beginning of all wisdom and knowledge. Means when we begin to fear God, we begin to wanting fear God, what God will do and all that.

    09:20 Then we begin to now know the knowledge of the truth. We go to God, we want to be reconciled with him. We want the sin to stop.

    09:27 We don’t want the sin anymore. But then we know by then we are realizing because fear of God is the beginning of knowledge and the wisdom means we begin to realize that, hey, sin is harming me. I’m in a mess.

    09:39 So then what we do? We go to God and we get washed by Jesus Christ. Then what happens? Then now we are in God, we are with God. And of course we won’t practice sin because we accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and master.

    09:53 If those who are sincerely in the heart have accepted Jesus Christ, the Lord and master and Saviour, and believing that Jesus Christ died on the cross and rose again and took our sins. Those who sincerely believe this in the heart will not continue
    practicing sin. The Holy Spirit would have come.

    10:10 And whenever you’re going to sin, or even you sin, there’ll be conviction. There will be a distress in your soul and you will say, sorry Lord, sorry Lord, sorry Lord, sorry Lord. You begin to ask for forgiveness straight away now.

    10:22 But if those who are continuing sinning and still say they’re Christians, they are actually liars. God calls them liars. But actually what has happened, they don’t believe in their heart that Jesus Christ their Lord and master, that Jesus Christ
    took their sins, that Jesus Christ empowered them to overcome sin.

    10:38 That Jesus Christ has given them power to cast out evil spirit. Now, in the name of Jesus Christ, you have cast out every evil spirit of temptation. You can cast it out in the name of Jesus Christ.

    10:49 Many segments I’ve been teaching this for so long. That’s how I also stopped sinning. I cast out in the name of Jesus Christ.

    10:56 I stopped sinning first because mercy came and stopped sin. All washed away. And then I’m not tempted, but finally temptation coming.

    11:04 I cast out in Jesus Christ’s name. In the name of Jesus Christ. We have to cast out all those who believe in Christ are given power to cast out evil spirit.

    11:12 And they will cast out evil spirit. That’s what Jesus says now. So if we.

    11:16 There’s another scripture in Hebrews 10:26, in Hebrews 10:26, this is talking to Christians Apostle Paul writing for if we go on willfully and deliberately sinning, so if somebody calls himself Christian now, as a Christian, what we are, we love
    God. Oh, as a Christian, we can love God. We love God without fear.

    11:39 Why, he has washed us of all our sins. We don’t fear God. We love Jesus Christ.

    11:45 He loves us. God is love, and we receive his love. And we change.

    11:49 We change. Now there are some who have not believed in their heart that Jesus Christ, the Lord and Master, who do not believe that Jesus Christ and do not use the power of Jesus Christ, of course, in the name of Jesus Christ, casting out evil and
    temptation, commanding their heart in the name of Jesus Christ, they can command our heart and mind to obey the word of God. All that they’re not doing, and then they continue, oh, nothing is okay.

    12:12 We can sin on and on. And many times I’ve heard preachings, just pushing this Hebrews 10:26 and 27 aside and saying it’s nothing, it’s not for you. So telling people literally you can continue sinning willfully and deliberately and nothing going to
    happen to you.

    12:27 No, when God’s word says something going to happen to you, you better open your eyes and your heart, eyes of your heart and eyes of your understanding and begin to take it in. And those who are born of God will take it in. Those who are not born of
    God, as the Bible itself says in John 3, 8, 9, that you continue committing sin means you’re born of the devil.

    12:48 Then you will not understand. I pray everyone who is listening to this stop for a moment and now examine yourself. Are you continuing the sin? If you continue the sin, you have not made your heart understand and believe in Jesus Christ completely.

    13:04 Now we Love Jesus Christ. We don’t want to sin because we don’t grieve him. Now let’s say we are already.

    13:11 Take me, even Hebrews 10:20. If I now start going willfully and deliberately sinning after receiving the knowledge of the truth. Truth is what Jesus Christ.

    13:20 After receiving the knowledge of Jesus Christ, I go on doing this. What happens, you can only expect. No longer there’s a sacrifice for sin.

    13:28 God says in 26, there no longer remains a sacrifice of sin to atone for our sins. The no more sacrifice. Burning candles and putting flowers and putting incense.

    13:38 He said, no, no, all this is not going to work. The sacrifice, only sacrifice for sin was on the cross. Jesus Christ died as an atonement for all our sins.

    13:49 Now we burn candles, we put incense and all that. Remember this. It’s action you want to do.

    13:55 You do. But the point again is you do not go. And of course God says, do not go and pray to idols and all that.

    14:03 The other thing, do not pray to idols and all. So if anybody trying to pray to idols, please, brothers and sisters, careful. So now the thing is, we now accept Jesus Christ.

    14:16 God said, worship me in truth. I am spirit. God is spirit.

    14:20 Worship me in truth. Truth and spirit. God’s commander.

    14:25 God says, I am spirit. God is spirit. Worship God in spirit and in truth.

    14:30 Jesus Christ himself says that. And it says that in different ways in different places in the Bible. So now we must worship Jesus Christ in truth, in worship.

    14:39 That means, you see, therefore, if we don’t have candles, if we don’t have incense, if we don’t have flowers, okay, no problem. You are worshipped first in spirit and in truth. There are people who can’t afford next meal.

    14:50 This current meal they can’t afford. So how are they going to buy all this? They worship in spirit and in truth. Worship in spirit and in truth.

    14:58 So now. So what do you do here? Now he says, if I go willfully and deliberately sin, there’s no more atonement for sin. That means the blood sacrifice on the cross cannot be applied for me.

    15:10 But what I can expect, he says, but kind of awful and terrifying expectation of divine judgment, the fury of fire and burning wrath which will consume the adversaries. Brothers and sisters, if you say you’re a Christian. If I say I’m Christian, I
    continue deliberately, willfully sinning.

    15:31 I better fear God because there is already written in Hebrews that I can only expect an awful and terrifying expectation of divine judgment. The fury of a fire and burning rot which will consume the adversaries now this is a difference between Love
    God, fear God Love God, fear God we need our wisdom and we continue sinning we better fear God Fear God and fear God don’t fear the man, don’t fear the devil because they can only kill your body God says the other God can do everything, destroy
    everything so now but once we come to Jesus Christ we love God, we love God Love Jesus Christ. In the name of Jesus Christ I pray all of you have understood this and we pray and worship Jesus Christ in spirit and in truth wherever we are.

    16:16 Those who are listening to this. Sometimes you’re so broke, so broken and no money, no nothing even to take a bus to church maybe. Oh, but somebody has given you this script and you’re hearing Worship Jesus Christ with spirit and in truth wherever
    you are he accepts and receives your heartfelt prayer in the name of Jesus Christ I pray Amen.

    00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 15th of October 2015 titled Man Pleaser or God Pleaser. Man Pleaser or God Pleaser? Brothers and sisters, this is a very critical issue because we live day to
    day, we live among people, we work with people, we do things. And we are not supposed to go and hide away somewhere and all.

    00:28 You know, sometimes people say the end of the world is coming. And some groups, you know, take them to the mountains and stay there and then finally find out this has happened over the years. Then they stay there and then they find the end of the
    year didn’t come and then the end of the world didn’t come and then they break up.

    00:43 And then all kinds of problems goes on in such groups whereby they begin to say it must go and live away. Now Jesus says this, we are in the world, but we are not of this world. Those followers of Jesus Christ must understand that we are still in
    the world, but we are not followers of this world.

    01:02 We are not of this world means we are not part of this world. We must be within people. Otherwise, how to minister, how to bring the goodness of Jesus Christ to everybody cannot be.

    01:15 You have to mix with people. Brothers and sisters, do not run away and hide away anywhere and be a small group or whatever, because Jesus wants us to go and meet people and tell them about Jesus. But of course, wisely, there are certain rules there.

    01:30 For instance, do not throw pearls to swines in case they trample on the pearl, turn around and tear you to pieces. So you have to hear the word of God. You have to hear the voice of God.

    01:44 The spirit of God must move you. You must be led by the spirit of God. Brothers and sisters, today the issue is men pleaser or God pleaser.

    01:51 And this is critical why we get under pressure. Children get under peer pressure. They’ll say in schools, in colleges, if the boy, after a certain age, they don’t smoke, then finish, the other fellows will shun the boy and all that.

    02:06 The boy will start smoking because peer pressure with these girls, they don’t hide. And you know, they suddenly, you know, teenage girls, suddenly they bring their school uniform. They hide the outside clothes in the back or even put the school
    uniform over their outside clothes.

    02:27 And then they skip classes, take away the school uniform and run away and go to city mass and go and loiter around with boys and all that. And if they some girl, your child doesn’t want to do that, there’ll be peer pressure, serious peer pressure.
    And finally the child end up Doing it.

    02:43 And the child, the girl, this girl child been tormented, torn between right and wrong, right and wrong. She. That is why we have to watch our children when they come back from school, have some chat, have a word with them, have discussion and see
    their countenance.

    03:02 Is the countenance all right? If the countenance suddenly a bubbly boy, a bubbly girl, suddenly goes quiet for a few days, then you begin to understand something is going wrong. So, brothers and sisters, there is this effort. There is effort.

    03:17 And you yourself may be tired and finished and fatigued and exhausted and enough pressure in the office and all that. And you tell yourself how to do this. How do I come back and do this thing now I have to watch over my children.

    03:32 You may be a working mom and then come back and take care of the home. How do you do this? By the grace and mercy of Christ, we can do this. We can do this.

    03:43 We have to do this. Brothers and sisters, if we do not do this, we will suffer later because here we endure. We endure and look after our children.

    03:54 Otherwise we will suffer because the devil will steal the children. The whole world is now under the sway of Satan. That means Satan influences the world.

    04:04 And our children go to school. They are part of the world. So.

    04:08 But we do, when we come back, we watch and we guide, we teach, we pray with them. We pray casting out everything, even in your office, you quickly can take time. If you don’t have a room, you quickly go out, maybe in the park, in the lunch hour, and
    cast out everything in the name of Jesus Christ out of our children.

    04:27 Brothers and sisters, this is very critical. That is why our Christian children also suffering because of pressures, fear, pressure so much these days. And then finally from smoke, from cigarettes, they end up with drugs and all that goes on.

    04:42 I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Mercy for us, Lord. Mercy that each of our persons who are listening to this will take up the cross, deny themselves and pick up the cross.

    04:55 The cross is. We deny ourselves, deny our flesh, crucify our flesh in the name of Jesus Christ and begin to do what is necessary. Your grace and mercy, Lord, I release your grace and mercy and strength into each of us to be able to live this life
    day to day, pleasing to you, pleasing to you, which keeps us safe.

    05:15 In the name of Jesus Christ. I pray now, brothers and sisters, this question of man pleasing or God pleasing is an important question. Colossians 3, 22, 25.

    05:25 I’m reading from the Amplified Bible now. The Amplified Bible. There are two Amplified Bibles in the Bible Gateway.

    05:33 One is Amplified Bible, the other one is classic edition. Today I am reading from the classic edition. 22 Colossians 3.

    05:40 22. Servants, obey in everything, those who are your earthly masters, not only when their eyes are on you as pleasers of men, but in simplicity of purpose, with all your heart, because of your reverence for the Lord and as a sincere expression of
    your devotion to Him. Now, when the Bible says obey in everything, means of course it’s understood, obey in everything that is right.

    06:08 When your earthly masters ask you to do wrong, you cannot obey because your obedience first is to Christ, to God Almighty, to His Word. But here now, servants obey in everything, those who are your earthly masters, not only when their eyes are on
    you as pleasers of men. Men pleasers.

    06:26 That means when they’re looking at us, we do. When they’re looking at us, we do. When they don’t look at us.

    06:32 I worked in the world before, you know, before I’m a pastor, I worked in corporate appointments, senior corporate appointments, and ran my own business later. And we find these people when you’re looking. Oh, people, fantastic.

    06:49 Put on a big show when the boss is not looking. These people will just do one thing and do all kind of rubbish. But you will not do that.

    06:56 God is saying you, when the boss is looking, are not looking. You will do, complete with the simplicity of purpose, with all your heart because of your reverence for the Lord. You revere our Lord.

    07:08 We reverence our Lord, awe and reverence for our God. He suffered for me, died on the cross and rose for me. Took my sins away and gave me power over Satan, gave me power over even my heart and mind.

    07:20 He gave me power because I. In his name, in his name, name, I can command my heart and mind. Therefore I will work full, whether my boss is looking or not. I will work full out of reverence for my God, for my Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

    07:36 Now, reverence. Many Bibles will use it. That’s why I use the classic today, because they use the word because of your fear for the Lord.

    07:44 And this has created a lot of misunderstanding. The fear for the Lord is actually reverence of the Lord. Reverence for the Lord.

    07:52 Fear. God says what? There’s no love in fear. But perfect love has no fear.

    08:00 We love him. We are not afraid of it. When he chastises us, we are not afraid.

    08:06 It’s punishment. We welcome his chastisement because his chastisement is not burdensome and all that. We just do his commands and he gives us power.

    08:16 Yes. What we sow we will reap and all that. But then he will not allow his children to be condemned.

    08:24 We are his children. We are the apple of his eye in the palm of his hand. So whenever he chastises so we are not afraid of our God.

    08:32 We are not fear of God in the sense that the world fears punishment and this and that. We fear our God because that is reverence for reverence. I don’t want to grieve my Jesus Christ anymore.

    08:42 I don’t want to grieve the Holy Spirit anymore. Brothers and sisters, this is the important thing you have to remember now in 23 whatever may be your task, work at it heartily from the soul as something done for the Lord, not for men. 24 knowing
    with all certainty, or all certainty, knowing with all certainty that it is from the Lord and not from men, that you will receive the inheritance.

    09:14 25 for he who deals wrongfully will reap the fruit of his folly and be punished for his wrongdoing. There is no partiality with God, no matter what a person’s position may be, whether he is a slave or master. God Almighty, Jesus Christ, the Son of
    the living God also is one in God.

    09:33 God, Father, and He are one. They don’t show partialty. They don’t take sides.

    09:38 They are just fair brothers and sisters, this scripture is important. Now you may understand. There is a reward also.

    09:45 There are many rewards. I attached so many other scriptures today. Galatians 1:10 for do I now persuade men or God? Apostle Paul asking, do I now Galatians 1:10 for do I now persuade men or God, or do I seek to please men? For if I yet please men, I
    should not be the servant of Christ.

    10:05 As servants of Christ we are not here to please men. We are not men pleasers. We want to help, take care, support, serve everybody, care for them, love them.

    10:17 But when it comes to make a decision, when something you have to do what the man wants, you can only do what God wants. If it’s different, what the man wants is opposite to what God wants. You cannot do what man wants.

    10:31 That’s a man pleasers. Do not be a man pleaser. God says, be a God pleaser.

    10:36 And when you are a God pleaser, Proverbs 16:7 says, When a man’s ways pleases the Lord, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him. One benefit, can you imagine? One powerful benefit. Even though the man may say, do this, do this, do this,
    and you don’t want to do this.

    10:53 And because you know your God is not going to be happy with this. You’re not going to please Jesus Christ. You say, sorry, sir, I cannot do this because I’ve taken an oath.

    11:01 I’ve taken an oath with Jesus Christ, the son of the living God. I’ve taken an oath with my father God that I will not do this. And if I do this, I will be cursed.

    11:12 That’s how I get out of this. 20 years now I get out of this. How do I get out of this? When people ask me to do something, I will tell them the truth.

    11:23 The truth is I have made a covenant with Jesus Christ of Nazareth. The truth is this is the oath, a covenant I’ve taken. Now, because of the covenant, if I do things that are wrong, I told God I do not want to do anything that’s wrong anymore.

    11:37 That’s covenanted. We follow Jesus Christ. We do what Jesus Christ tells us.

    11:42 Now sir, if I do this, then not only will be cursed, Almighty God will take the curses will move to everybody. That is why first of all, I shouldn’t do this because I don’t want to be cursed. And two, I don’t want the curse to move on, to pass to
    other people.

    11:59 Those who told me to do also will be cursed. No need, sir. I cannot do this.

    12:03 If I do this, not only I will be cursed, others will be cursed. So I don’t want this and I don’t be cursed. So I took this covenant.

    12:09 I took this oath with Jesus Christ. Now it has worked them, brothers and sisters, they’re telling the truth. This is the truth.

    12:16 I took a covenant now and the curse is true. What you sow will reap. I’ll be cursed.

    12:22 And the curse moves on. And God said, offenses will come. But woe to the one who brings the offenses.

    12:28 The person who brings you the temptation. Woe to the one he says. So the curse will move there also.

    12:33 So you begin to tell this to get out of this problem. Now, there are many instances. For instance, let’s say you’re working somewhere and the boss wants you to fix the books.

    12:42 That means put false entries in the books because you’re an accounts person or whatever you cannot do. Then you will be cursed and they will be cursed. So you will say sorry.

    12:53 Humble. Humble. Humble, brothers and sisters.

    12:55 Humble, Humble, you say? Sorry sir, I took a covenant. I cannot do all this. If I do all this, I will be cursed.

    13:02 And then the curse also will move on to others. Please, sir. Now what God says, when you do what is pleasing to the Lord, he will make his enemies to be at peace.

    13:12 With you. I have seen it repeatedly when people in the congregation, I tell them, when they come for counseling and they say this is the problem. And I tell them go and do like this, depending on Jesus Christ.

    13:21 Your faith in Jesus Christ, not in the faith in me. I’m just counseling, thank Jesus Christ of Nazareth. And then they go and follow.

    13:29 They find the bosses change, they let them go. Now there are other instances. For instance, a wife, husband is a drunkard.

    13:39 This happens. These are cases when I’m doing these cases, they all actually over the period of time I’ve come across this. And there are people who are listening this, they will witness to this because they are, some of them are actually were
    affected with this.

    13:50 The husband wants to drink, drink, drink. And then these wives only working, you know, the husbands are because jobless and all because they have been addicted with drunkenness. Now I’m not condemning anybody.

    14:01 I was a drunkard myself. So now when they go and ask the wife money, the money, wife gives money because she’s afraid the husband may shout and angry or violence or whatever, or just fear, just fear, you know what they will think. And then she gives
    the money.

    14:20 Finally there are several women over the years, I have to tell them, sorry, sister, if you trust Jesus Christ, you will not give. Because why, when you come to Jesus Christ, you surrendered all. You surrendered all and everything owned by Jesus
    Christ.

    14:36 And actually, whether we surrender or not, we know everything is owned by Jesus Christ. Everything was made by him, through him and for him. And then of course, it’s a struggle for these sisters.

    14:46 Struggle, of course I understand. Then they say, blood of Jesus, blood of Jesus, blood of Jesus. And say, I cannot give you because you’re only harming yourself.

    14:50 I cannot give you this money. But they don’t go to, I now follow Jesus Christ. Everything belongs to Jesus Christ.

    15:01 So I will not give you money. Now some sisters without understanding the scriptures and I did this and got even more trouble. Don’t be humble.

    15:10 Then of course, thank Jesus Christ they changed. Be humble and say, sorry, I cannot give you. You’re only harming yourself.

    15:17 I don’t know, I cannot let you harm yourself. And I also be accountable to God for letting you harm yourself. So I cannot.

    15:24 Then of course some hoo ha will take place. But you hold on to the faith in Jesus Christ and then the thing will pass. And finally you find that you have become more and more bold in pleasing God.

    15:36 Not man pleaser, God pleaser. Now take other issues. A son, a mother, maybe a single mom, throwing tantrums, throwing tantrums and she gives in.

    15:48 Gives in, Gives in. Why? She fears this boy because he’s a teenager, big fellow. After a while when she counsel no, you have to stand in faith in Christ.

    15:57 Then when she begins to do that, then she begins to find. She gets boldness. And that boy also changes.

    16:04 The sun changes then. Otherwise it will not change. It will get worse and worse.

    16:08 Brothers and sisters, let’s be God pleasers today, not men pleasers. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command every spirit that making us please men get out of us in Jesus name. Get up.

    16:20 Get up. Now sisters, the same thing. Sisters working for some company and then they’re telling you oh, dress like this, come to this function, come to the evening, entertain my clients.

    16:30 Sisters cannot. Because you will end up pleasing man but not pleasing God. You actually end up into sin.

    16:36 Sisters, please. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command every pleasing of man spirit. Get out.

    16:38 In the name of Jesus Christ. And I release every spirit of us, every portion, every cell of our being to please God Almighty. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray.

    16:52 Amen.
