00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ. Daily 16th of September 2015 Examine yourself. Chapter 7 Chastisement Chastisement before we proceed.
00:15 Today is a day that Malaysia celebrates. That Malaysia became Malaysia. That then three different countries, I think Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak join together to from Malaysia.
00:30 So today they are celebrating. Now wherever in the world, we must remember that finally heaven and earth will pass away. A new heaven and earth will come.
00:39 And we belong to Jesus. So we love all. We love all.
00:45 We love every citizen of every country. We love every person. Even Jesus Christ says to love your enemy.
00:54 To be sons of the most high God, we must love even our enemies. Can you imagine? We love our enemies? Yes, they can do things. But we must understand they are captives.
01:03 They are human beings. We pity them, be sorry for them. Let’s not get carried away.
01:09 And all this. So even in Malaysia right now, there are two groups having issues. We love both.
01:18 We ask for mercy for both. We ask mercy for ourselves. And mercies are new every morning for those who love God.
01:25 Now, brothers and sisters, yesterday we were talking about. If I can explain the chastisement better because it has caused a lot of problems. It has caused so many misunderstandings.
01:34 It has caused the problem to the point that people are actually nailing themselves to the cross. Weeping, scourging, weeping until their flesh is torn. And then they suffer.
01:49 And they actually believe this. They believe this. That is why they believe this, that they will settle their sins.
01:55 That will wash away their sins. But Jesus Christ has clearly said this. It is finished.
02:00 On the cross. He took every scourging. Scourging means ripping the flesh out, you know, they came until the flesh being ripped ribbon by ribbon.
02:12 So how does this work? Why are people confused because of this? Scripture has been misunderstood. One scripture, Hebrews 12:6, says, whom the Lord loves, he chastens and scourges every son whom he receives. So they scourge themselves.
02:32 But Hebrews 12:6 didn’t say, the Lord loves. He chastens not. You chasten yourself.
02:40 He chastens. So this misunderstanding that I will chasten myself and then scourges every son, he scourges every son. Not that you scourge yourself.
02:53 You scourge yourself. And then this has caused another problem. Now, before that, Hebrews 12:8 says, if you are not chastened, you are actually bastards.
03:04 That says in the original translation, the word in the Bible says bastards. Bastards are you and not sons. In Young’s literal translation and the older versions of the Bible, you will see this if you’re not chosen.
03:18 You are not partakers and your bastards illegitimate. The newer version will say you are illegitimate children. Now this has caused misunderstanding to the point.
03:33 Can you imagine? Read carefully. He said the Lord loves whom the Lord loves. He chastens whom the Lord loves.
03:40 Scourges every son. The Lord scourges every son whom he receives. But here the confusion became this.
03:46 They’re sincere, you know they’re sincere. Can you imagine to stand there and to be nailed to the cross by yourself and to get whipping to allow people to whip you of you get yourself whip you. They whip themselves.
03:58 They got a some kind of a handle which whip. They whip from the front. They’ll keep whipping from the to the back.
04:04 The whipple go and tether back. Tear their skins and their backs. They continue doing this.
04:08 There are a number of in fact those not Christians also a number of religions do this. You know, they whip and. But we know Jesus had taken that for us.
04:18 He took everything for us. We know that. We must keep that in mind.
04:22 He loves you. Jesus loves you. Jesus loves me.
04:27 God is love. If you keep looking at that, then you understand the scripture. Any scripture comes to you, it must be based on the fact that God loves you.
04:37 Jesus Christ loves you. He’s the husband of your soul. He’s coming back for you.
04:43 He went home to go to father’s place to make a home for you and of course for me. And he’s coming back and he’s the husband of his soul. He then says he, Jason and Scourges.
04:57 Now it must be read in that light. Now. In addition, some people, of course they are unable to.
05:04 They either scared or cannot feel fear or pain or whatever. Thank God they don’t follow others and keep on taking the whip and whipping themselves and hearing themselves. But they begin to falsely believe the disease is caused by God put on by God.
05:18 Because scourges and chastened, they begin to misunderstand. Jesus Christ put the illness on them. Jesus Christ put the disease on them.
05:29 Praise Jesus, brothers and sisters. It’s actually not only false belief, it is an antichrist belief to believe that God, Jesus Christ, son of the living God, puts diseases on his own children. This is an Antichrist belief.
05:45 It’s an antichrist spirit that caught us and made us believe these kind of false things. What Jesus said is the devil came to steal, kill and destroy. Now I have come to give you life and life more abundantly.
05:59 That is the gospel. And this is the letter from the apostles. Hebrew is a letter written by Apostle Paul.
06:07 So it has to be read in the context of the Gospel, in the context of the love of God, in the context of the love of Jesus Christ for me, his husband. His husband. Can you imagine a husband, even an earthly husband, unless they are wicked or they are not, the marriage broken or whatever.
06:19 Can you imagine a husband who loves the wife, putting disease on the wife? This is false, is Antichrist belief. But actually what Jesus said was this. Now let’s understand the letters.
06:41 Now there’s another letter written by Paul Peter. Apostle Peter, 1st Peter 2:24. He clearly says this.
06:47 Who himself bore our sins in his own body. Jesus bore our sins in his own body on the tree, on the cross. Having died to sins, we now because of him, we can have died to sins and might live for righteousness.
07:01 By whose stripes you were healed? Paul Peter, by whose stripes you were healed? Apostle Peter telling us right now, directly by the stripes of Jesus Christ, we were healed. We were healed. Already healed.
07:19 Already healed. Now we have to receive the healing. The healing has to manifest.
07:23 That happens when your heart believes. When my heart and my mind must be renewed in the spirit. My mind must be renewed in the spirit.
07:31 To know the truth of this and then keep on commanding the mind to understand this is the truth. My God loves me. I was already healed when Jesus took the scourging, when Jesus took the weeping and tearing of flesh.
07:46 And then my heart will believe. When my heart is believed, the belief is formed. There the healing takes place.
07:52 The healing becomes manifest. Our problem is our mind has not been renewed to complete the journey. To make our heart believe.
08:00 Only when my heart believes. The promises of God can manifest in the physical. So what do people do? The confusion, the confusion the mind.
08:11 The mind believes some false belief or understanding of scripture and begin to believe that Jesus Christ has put illness on you. Cast this nonsense out of you. Brothers and sisters, I command in the name of Jesus Christ every false belief, every belief that’s Antichrist to get out of everyone who is listening today.
08:31 Get out of them. And to know that your husband of your soul loves you, loves you, loves you. In Jesus name I pray now, brothers and sisters, let’s look at this again.
08:45 So I had to go and look for the Greek translation and all that. Take the emails, brothers, get the emails. There are cut and paste all these.
08:56 Therefore sometimes it takes time in the morning. And that reminds me, some people will be thinking, you know, why can’t this pastor? Why can’t pastor record of you and release daily I have to be led by the spirit of God. Brothers and sisters, I have to walk in the spirit.
09:14 I cannot do a format like a school or a university, you know, we put a format or like an institution, institute, you know, like a professional institute that’s worldly. I have to be led. The Holy Spirit must deal with this in the mornings.
09:30 Unless the Holy Spirit tells me the night before what to do and I quickly record it. Yes, I will do that also. I’m not holding on and say I must do in the morning.
09:38 No, no, I will do as the Holy Spirit leads me. Therefore, many times I’ll get up in the morning, night time I go to sleep. Sometimes I tell my wife I have no clue what to do tomorrow.
09:51 But also my wife and I know, my wife says, jesus will give you something tomorrow. And that is true. He gives me daily.
10:01 And then we find that what he gives, I am unable to finish in 16 minutes. So I immediately, last minute, you will see me rushing and say, in Jesus name I pray. Can you imagine, brothers and sisters, he is a wonderful God.
10:13 He loves us, he teaches us, he changes us. Now, let’s look at this in the word chasten and scourging, this has to be settled. The.
10:22 The word chasen is pedio, pehidio, to train up a child. The word chasan there, that was translated from the word pehidio in the Greek. And that is to train up a child.
10:40 Now you train up a child. Next thing, mastigo, mustigo is the word scourge has been translated from the word mustigo. Musty go is to flog, literally or figuratively.
10:56 Now, so we got an issue here, right? To flog, it is flogged, literally or figuratively. So our people have put the word scourge. Scourge, that means.
11:06 Can mean literally or figuratively. So now what do you think? Taking the entire precept of Christ. Therefore God says the Bible, you have to read line by line, precept by precept.
11:19 That’s that the Scripture teaches us to understand the Bible this way. Line by line, precept by precept, concept by concept, understanding by understanding. But line by line, we start and we have to settle it by the concept, by the understanding, by understanding.
11:36 What is the understanding? God is love. What is the understanding? Jesus said it is finished. On the cross, he took everything for us.
11:45 By my stripes you were healed. He took our scourges. He took our sins.
11:49 He took our illnesses, our pains, our brokenness, our curses, our generational curses. And then he went to hell. So we don’t have to go.
12:01 He rose up from there. Resurrection, power. Resurrection Power.
12:04 And he gave us his pure holy blood by which demons burn. He gave us a name. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command evil spirit to get out Spirit of infirmity.
12:14 Jesus cast out spirit of infirmity. Infirmity. And Jesus healed the sick.
12:19 He was healing the sick. Now can you imagine this God, Jesus Christ putting illness and healing the sick. He’s finished.
12:26 Also in Jesus Christ, he’s finished. Now he given his power to trample on snakes and scorpions. And by any means nothing will harm you.
12:35 By no means, nothing can harm us. And then he’s given the. He gave you power to cast out evil spirit.
12:40 Those who believe will cast out evil spirits in my name. If you believe in me, you will cast out. He says.
12:46 Now that is the precept, that is the concept, that’s the understanding of Christ. He loves us. He’s now gone to his Father’s place and he’s making up room for us, a home for us, for each of us as his bride.
13:01 As his bride. Because he’s a bridegroom of our souls. Now if this is a concept, will earthly husband put illness on you? Unless of course wicked and marriage is breaking up or whatever argument going on.
13:14 But a husband who loves you, will he put illness on you, sister? Or a wife who loves you will put illness on you, brother? No. Now a child. Yes.
13:27 Now next, for instance, caning. You know, the law says. The law provides for caning for certain crimes in many countries.
13:36 You know, that canine will. There’ll be a doctor in attendance in cans. It’s so seriously painful and ripped the flesh maybe and can die.
13:48 Can die. That’s why they probably give one cane and then rest, you know, and then the doctor is there to check the fellow before and after. It is that kind of caning.
13:58 But now if we say I can the child. Did we cane? Are we supposed to cane like that? Rip the flesh off completely? One whole flesh comes out and then pains and collapses and collapses and faints and all kinds of things because it’s a very solid thing. And the doctor is present because it’s like that.
14:22 She’s caining the child. He’s taking a cane and caining lah. Yeah.
14:26 There may be some marks. That’s it. Which will heal in a day or two.
14:31 Some marks, you know, blue blackabee. Now that’s it. You can’t gain like that what they do.
14:38 If you do that, they’ll put you in jail. Now remember this. Our God loves us.
14:44 So the scourging is inside. Figuratively, you get stressed out. You get peace is leaving you.
14:50 You get confusion coming. Then you cry out to God because you know something is going wrong inside you. That is the scourging happening.
14:57 The peace is living. He trains us up, he loves us. He trains up as a child.
15:02 As a child, he educates us, he changes steps. Suddenly you want something, you’re not getting it, you’re not getting it. But there’s also a sowing and reaping law.
15:11 What you sow, you reap. You keep on drinking. Aerated drink, sugar, sugary drink, sugary drink.
15:15 Finally, disease. Diabetes. Oh, my God.
15:19 Punishing me, Brother, sister. You put this yourself and examine yourself. Do not blame God for nothing.
15:26 Now there are people, I sit, whipping themselves, whipping themselves, nailing themselves. No need. All these brothers and sisters done on the cross.
15:33 This scourging and this chastening is actually all in the Spirit. You will know it. He will guide you.
15:42 Ah, wonderful Jesus. It’s not in the physical. The spirit is training you, talking to you, moving you, arranging things.
15:50 Some things he allows you to have, something he don’t allow you to have. Because that’s not just punishment, saving you from the problem. So therefore, in the name of Jesus Christ, I pray today everybody is set free.
16:02 Set free. Set free. Illness cast out in Jesus name.
16:06 Don’t ever think you’re Jesus, the husband of the soul, doing anything this way. Amen. Amen.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and Sisters, today is the 15th of September 2015. Work of God. Examine yourself number six faithfulness.
00:10 Brother Sister, before I start let’s remember I’m fairly well thank Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Mercies are new every morning so I’m just late today because we had to minister to a soul. My wife and I ministered to this soul.
00:24 This is Hindu soul and she struggles and by the time we went to bed it’s 1:00am now those days of course 1:00am 2:00am, 3:00am can I get up at 5:00 5:00am and go to work. But now as you’re older these things get up to you and then obviously we can peppered with haste then we have a new situation thank Jesus but mercies are new every morning and I’m able to get up and do this and yes I’m sore throat and all this. Now brothers and sisters, those who are young, I’m talking to you today young brothers and sisters.
01:03 Remember when you are dealing with older people Now I’ve been ministering from 40 something years old to younger people and older people and all around the ages. Now remember when the older people older person has difficulty sometimes it may be the eyesight hearing sometimes it may be because eyesight you know when you go and you don’t so you don’t have upset look upset when they’re slow to take on what you’re telling and then the language differential now everything everybody talks in languages that the older person has completely no clue when some of the sentences are same now for instance sometimes you see, you know when you go to a function or whatever a person will be opening their eyes so wide to look at you and the younger person gets scared. The younger person said oh, what is this person staring away? Actually they can’t see until you get near so their eyes automatically pupils are opening very and then there are younger people will be thinking younger women will think this man is a useless fella who just want to busy body who just staring away or the young the older lady is no busy body again no brothers and sisters.
02:19 It may simply be that the eyesight is bad and they have to open and wait until you come into focus. 2 Therefore, if we see a person driving slowly on the road like a Sunday morning drive when it’s a Monday nightmare morning traffic or daymare morning traffic traffic from hell. So you will think what is this person doing now? That is why we have patience, patience and kindness and goodness because you don’t know the condition.
02:49 If you think we know Something we do not know as we ought to know as yet. That is 1 Corinthians 8:2. That is a fundamental we must keep on telling.
02:56 If I think I know something I do not know as I ought to know as yet. Because I do not know the whole story as I should, Lord, make me understand, Lord. But I will just obey the word of God.
03:07 Have love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. It will see you through. Now, on the other hand, if you do not have self control, therefore you have road rage, isn’t it? Suddenly somebody is now some bully may think this old chap there, old, old fella driving like this and he can go and do a bully go and whack the window or whatever.
03:30 What happens is a retired army person or a police senior police officer, whatever, and he’s got a gun and shoot you. That is why we have self control. And the bullies do not think of the consequences.
03:46 They think they are so gung ho, so strong, they forget they have no love unloved, they have no love for people and they think bullies wicked. They think they can do. Or on the other side, there’s a statement that when people gentle person gets into the car, he becomes oh, a bully.
04:08 A bully becomes because he’s surrounded by this car metal and he thinks he’s protected. There’s a spirit that transforms people when they sit into this car and especially when they’re tired and what not and they want to go to a place quickly and somebody is waiting there. Maybe it’s an entertainment place or maybe going home or whatever.
04:27 They are burdened with the burdens of the world. They will rise us up and. And suddenly you sit in the car, you think you can do anything.
04:35 And there are others who sit in the car. Do not think. I think they forget that may happen to me also.
04:41 I think sometimes we forget that the car has got glass windows. The car has got glass windows surrounded by all glass people can see through. Even if you are so tinted some of the tint you can still see through.
04:54 Now so we begin to do things in the car. A lot of times people do doing the cosmetic in the car now. Can you imagine? Now anyway, this is real life.
05:05 So we have a heart filled with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness. Today we are talking about faithfulness. Faithfulness, the term is.
05:17 That is of course, I was quoting from Galatians 5:22 to 23. The fruit of the spirit, the various flavors of the spirit. Today I am talking about 2nd Timothy 2:13, 2nd Timothy 2:13 from the amplified if we are faithless, he remains faithful, true to his word and his righteous character.
05:37 For he cannot deny himself. Who cannot deny himself? Jesus Christ cannot deny himself. If we are faithless, he remains faithful.
05:45 I have seen preachings telling the same scripture as if you know, with the saying, if we are unfaithful, he remains faithful. That is nonsense. The Word is very clear.
05:58 If we are faithless, it’s not that. If we are unfaithful, sad brothers and sisters, people take the thing and twist it this way, that way, can’t they check and see the Word clearly and then they teach this. And people, the Christians think they can just do what they want because they’ve been teaching this nonsense is antichrist statement.
06:21 Christ says, if we are faithless and he remains faithful. That’s what Christ, the Word of God says. But they are teaching one.
06:28 There are small number, thank God, I don’t know a small number or not. If you go and search in the Internet, you will see a small number, say about 20% telling this nonsense. If we are unfaithful, he remains faithful.
06:41 Brothers and sisters, now remember, we are. He’s the husband of our soul. He’s the husband of our soul.
06:50 He remains faithful. In a context, yes, I’ll explain that later. He remains faithful in the context.
06:58 But do not give the slanted idea that you can do anything you wish and there are no consequences. If we are faithless, why things have happened, problem in the house, suddenly in the hospital, and they say somebody you love so much is dying or something. That time the faith just boom, gone.
07:17 And you are shaking there and you are troubled, you don’t know what to do. Tears are falling from your eyes, on your face. Tears are falling on your face, on and on, weeping quietly, sobbing, heart wracking, heart wracking, heart wrenching.
07:34 And you don’t know. All is dark. All is dark.
07:40 And you will remember this today, brothers and sisters. When a situation like that comes for you, you will remember. 2 Timothy, 2nd Timothy 2:13.
07:50 If we are faithful. If you are faithless, he remains faithful to his righteous word and character. He remains faithful to His Word.
07:51 If you are faithless, he remains faithful. What an assurance. Brothers and sisters, remember, put this deep into your heart.
08:06 Meditate on this. When we are faithless, he remains faithful. When we are.
08:11 Oh, thank Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Now there’s another scripture. What happens when we are unfaithful? Now when we are unfaithful? In Hebrews 12:6, God says, the Lord disciplines and corrects those whom he loves and he punishes every son whom he receives and welcomes to his heart.
08:36 Revelation 3:19 says, those whom dearly and tenderly love, I rebuke and discipline, showing them their faults and instructing them. So be enthusiastic and repent. Change your inner self, your old way of thinking, your sinful behavior.
08:57 Seek God’s will. We will repeat this a little later. Now.
09:00 So when we are unfaithful, the issues are different, the consequence different. When we are faithless, his word will go through. He will do more than we can ask or think he will do.
09:13 That’s another word of his. He will do more than he asks or thinks. That’s his character.
09:17 Because he knows we cannot think much. And he knows we cannot think so much. And we know we cannot ask so much because we ask and think along our limited understanding of how the whole thing works, our limited understanding how the world works.
09:30 Oh, he’s got the riches and the power and the glory of all. His character is powerful, authoritative. He’s got authority.
09:39 He’s got power. He’s got immense, unlimited understanding. He created the heavens and the earth.
09:49 He’ll use that to remain faithful. When he’s faithful, he’ll use that to settle you. Even when we are faithless, Ramana faithfully has clear said what he’s going to do.
09:59 He disciplines and corrects because he loves us. And he punishes every son because he loves us. And then Revelation 3:19 says, I rebuke and discipline, showing them their faults and instructing them, showing them they are false and instructing them.
10:16 So be enthusiastic and repent. Repent means change your inner self. How? Change your whole way of thinking, your sinful behavior.
10:25 Seek God’s will. We have to change. It comes by renewing in the spirit of your mind, changing the way we think.
10:32 Because our thinking has been taught by the world. Remember this. Our thinking has been taught by the world.
10:37 Or generational spirits have moved and that’s how we think. Seek God’s will. Now brothers and sisters, let’s look at this again.
10:49 How he will correct us in some detail. I hope to go on that tomorrow. Now can you imagine? He cannot deny himself.
11:00 Now let’s ask ourselves this unfaithful. So we are faithless. No issue.
11:05 No issue. Don’t say I need more faith. I need more faith.
11:08 He will still do what he wants. What he has to do for us, he will do. Why? He is the husband of my soul.
11:12 He is the husband of my soul. He will still do. His husband duties to my soul.
11:20 He will do. Now, if we are unfaithful. Now let’s look at some examples.
11:27 This parallel to an Israelite wedding engagement and followed by a marriage. Now Israelite engagement is that the fiance, the man gives gifts and all to the betrothed woman. And he says, I’m going away and then prepare a place in my father’s home.
11:46 And then I come when my place is ready. When the place is ready for the event, I’ll come and take you. And we go there.
11:51 So that’s the engagement period waiting. But in the meantime he would have told you cannot do certain things. I don’t want you mixing with the boys in the town anymore.
12:05 Okay? I don’t want you missing with the boys in the town anymore. Now at the same time he said, look here, I will settle you this and that. So even when we are faithless, so he will give some gifts to remind her that he is coming back.
12:18 So the Israelite woman, whenever faith is affecting her that whether she will come back or not, she will look at the gifts and begin to remember the promise that the future husband made. But if the report goes back to this husband betrothed wedding betrothed is good as married. It goes back to the fiance, the future husband.
12:43 That this woman is loitering around with all these local boys and they having parties and doing some rubbish. May not have seen sexually, but doing some rubbish. Djipiti da, do you know Happy go Lucky acting like before.
13:01 Acting like. Just like, you know, a simple girl. Just playing fool.
13:04 Playing here, playing catching. How when he feels that is unfaithful. Faithless is when you are unsure whether he will come back.
13:15 That’s faithless. When you have got trouble and you think how will my husband. Can my husband solve me? Can my husband save me? That is faithless, faithful, unfaithful is doing what you want.
13:26 Irrespective of what agreement you made, Irrespective of what covenant you made. Irrespective of what your husband thinks, that’s unfaithful. Now let’s look at our case.
13:39 Jesus Christ is coming back. That’s a fact. Whether our heart believes or not.
13:45 Now we have to make our heart believe. But in the spirit is a fact. If you’re a believer of Jesus Christ, you know he’s coming back.
13:51 He’s the husband of your soul. Now he tells you to the soul, to you as the bride, part of the bride of Christ. As a church tells you.
14:02 Go and tell others. Go and tell others that they don’t have to suffer like this. They have to call on the breath of God call on Jesus name and they’ll feel better.
14:12 And then you know one person is suffering and you heard about it and you don’t even contact that person to tell. You can do this if you want. I’m not forcing you.
14:24 Because Jesus doesn’t want anybody forced and brought to him. This is not a dictatorial regime. It is not a religion of dictators.
14:34 Jesus is love. God is love. And he is not even a religion.
14:39 So only those who want, he will take those who come to him. He says he will not turn them away. But he also said only those his Father has allowed will come to him.
14:49 So now we have to go and tell. We have to go and tell the fact that God has put the person’s name in your soul, in your heart, it’s necessary. You go and tell this simple thing about breathing the breath of God, about these things that we have, talking about the three parts they are the world doesn’t know and they’re suffering.
15:07 And then they talk about, and then to talk about, look, you are hurt, but you must forgive. Yesterday the Hindu woman said, no, I cannot forgive. I say, I understand.
15:19 I’m not asking you to forgive. Jesus is asking you, are you willing? Because if you’re not willing, Jesus can’t do for you if you’re willing. She can’t sleep and all.
15:28 For decades now, suffering is him, can’t sleep and all. So I said, you don’t have to suffer. You can sleep today.
15:35 Well, if you’re willing to forgive, then this is a restaurant. I can just cast out the spirit of unforgiveness and you will know. And secondly, you forgive for your sake.
15:45 If you don’t forgive, this is harming you. You already know you cannot sleep. The burden is upon you.
15:50 Why all this? So brothers and sisters, today we have to carry the message. We be faithful to Jesus Christ of Nazareth. And then she said, okay.
15:59 Then she said, if I sleep today well, I will then consider Jesus. I said, look, if you focus on your unforgiveness and the bitterness you have when the thoughts come, instead of saying blood of Jesus and getting out of this, you focus on Jesus, you will sleep. You focus on the other things and you won’t sleep.
16:17 That’s how it is. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray that we remain faithful in all things, faithful in Jesus name. And even when we are faithless, he remains faithful.
16:29 I curse every spirit of unfaithfulness. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Amen.

AI-generated transcript below — please excuse any errors
00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 14th September. We are still in the work of God, which is first of all, what’s the work of God? Work of God is believing in the One whom He sent. Believing in Jesus Christ.
00:15 Believing in Jesus Christ. The more we believe, the more we cling on, more we trust him, the more we meditate on His Word. Keep on looking at His Word and thinking of what we are doing and we will then end up doing like that will become looking at the Word as if in a mirror.
00:33 As in a mirror. Then what will happen? The Word of God will change us from inside. And one of the words critical word is examine yourself.
00:42 Examine yourself. Number five I put there because of fifth section. Examine ourselves critical.
00:48 The problem with 99% of Christians do not examine themselves. And they get into trouble. We get into trouble.
00:57 If you do not examine yourself, you will act badly even in your office place. And the devil will use that to steal, kill and destroy. The devil needs a foothold.
01:07 Your foothold is if you don’t examine yourself against the Word of God. Not examine yourself against what the world says, against the Word of God, against what the husband of your soul says. Examine yourself against what the husband of your soul says.
01:24 Now we must examine ourselves daily. And when things are going wrong, more so. When things are going wrong, more so.
01:36 What did I sow that I am reaping this? Didn’t I do the right thing? Now the Word today we are dealing with is goodness. We dealt with patience, kindness, goodness. Now the first part of the Galatians 5, 22, 23.
01:51 The fruit of the Spirit. Fruit of the Spirit is one fruit. Love, joy and peace.
01:57 Love, joy and peace. If we do not have love, joy and peace, the rest of it is not going to follow. Patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self control is not going to come.
02:10 So we must always look and examine ourselves to see whether we have loved this joy and peace. Love, joy and peace. Righteousness, peace and joy.
02:21 That’s in seeking the kingdom of God. And it’s a condition of your soul, condition of the Spirit in you. Condition of your soul, your heart and mind having peace.
02:31 It’s like quiet and gentle spirit within you. Some people just don’t talk. But inside the Spirit is a turmoil is going on.
02:41 Big storm is going inside there. But of course, then if I see a sister and this thing, turmoil is going inside. I say, look, your spirit is not in rest.
02:55 Your spirit is not gentle and quiet. It is moving. It is violent inside.
03:00 Going on, no, but I am not saying anything. I am quiet and gentle. I am quiet.
03:05 I am quick to hear, slow to speak. Yeah, quick to hear, slow to speak is what. What your mouth is doing.
03:11 But God wants us. What is most precious in his sight is a quiet and gentle spirit. A quiet and gentle spirit.
03:19 Your spirit has to be quiet and gentle. And what is gentle we saw when you have power, strength and all, yet you are sensitive. Sensitive to issues, the quiet experience and gentle spirit.
03:36 So the spirit gentle is caring. The spirit is gentle. It is caring.
03:46 It is sensitive to others. To others. Sensitive to what is happening to others.
03:50 Sensitive to what others are doing. So if others are doing something, they are suffering. That is why one is patience.
03:59 Patience is first of all when God has given a promise, when we impatiently go and do something else, trying to get the promise to come quickly, that is impatience. And God’s promises can only be received in patience. That means we don’t go and do something quickly to hurry up the promise of God.
04:21 This is what many people fail. Let it go. When God has promised.
04:26 He loves you. He loves you. He loves you.
04:26 He loves you. God is love. He cannot do anything else but love.
04:35 And because he loves you, he has also suffered on the cross, died on the cross, rose again. And power is given to us. He wants us to do something.
04:44 He has given us the power. He wants us to apply the power. And if we do not want to apply the power, let’s want the power of Christ daily.
04:53 Apply the power of Christ daily. Daily. Apply the power of Christ daily.
05:00 Now, brothers and sisters, if we do not apply the power that has been bought at such a tremendous terrible price by the Son of the living God, we don’t want to apply the power. We do not want to cast out evil spirits that are taking us. Take control.
05:18 Spirit of lust, lusting for things. Spirit of confusion. Get out in the name of Jesus Christ.
05:24 Spirit of fear, get out in the name of Jesus Christ. That one God has clearly mentioned. I did not give you a spirit of fear.
05:33 And he caused fear. Spirit, Spirit of fear. So fear comes.
05:37 You know it’s a spirit. You better cast it out in the name of Jesus Christ if you do not want to cast out in the name of Jesus Christ. Whereas the Spirit is not going to go in the name of somebody else.
05:47 And the spirit is not going to go. Because we are praying. We are praying.
05:52 He is not going to go. He is going to go when you command him to go in the name of Jesus Christ. Get out.
05:59 Spirit of fear. Get out and you do the breath of God in the name of Jesus Christ and you find the peace and settlement coming. Without peace, our life would be in a mess.
06:10 Now kindness, kindness is, you know, caring what the definition of a kindness was. Very clearly God has told us definition yesterday. The definition he taught us yesterday was definition.
06:28 He taught us this hasting brothers and sisters came back again very strongly yesterday. So this is why you see me, hear me coughing. Disruption here.
06:40 But we’ll go through in the name of Jesus Christ. At the same time when this kind of thing happens, God also remind me if we go and search in the net Martyrs M A R T Y R S M A R T Y R S Martyrs. Martyrs for Christ.
06:59 I hope it is that spelling is correct. Martyrs for Christ, Marty. Martyrs are people being persecuted and being told that they should.
07:07 They should. People being persecuted and being told that they should not follow Christ and give up Christ. But they’re not willing to because why they don’t hold on to Christ and they persecute.
07:19 They’re tortured, they’re killed. All kinds of things going on. Now these martyrs are suffering all over the world.
07:31 You know, there was a number of 165,000, I think. 165,000, I think is either 65,000, 165,000, I’ve forgotten. Search that brothers and sisters.
07:40 Go to the Internet, search and put them martyrs for Christ, you know, and you’ll find there are thousands being tortured and killed off yearly. Yearly this yearly figure. Yearly.
07:52 So these things we suffer a bit here we begin to think we’re suffering a lot. Nothing, brothers and sisters. Nothing, nothing, nothing.
08:01 This is nothing. So we better, whenever we are suffering, do not focus on our suffering. Think of others.
08:09 Now, as you know, power of Christ daily is to apply the power. Power has been given by suffering, by tremendous suffering. If you go and read the last few chapters of each gospel, you will find how Jesus suffered.
08:25 Now so kindness, as God has told us, kindness is a sincere desire for the happiness of others. Sincere desire for people to be happy, for people to be joyful. Kindness is the inner feeling created by the Holy Spirit.
08:43 That’s a feeling. Oh, they’re not looking too well today. They’re looking a bit distressed.
08:48 Oh, these brothers which sad today the sisters, why Let me do something. Maybe it’s something they need and we have give that causes us to be sensitive to the needs of others. It’s a feeling created by the Holy Spirit within us that causes us to be sensitive to the needs of others, whether physical, emotional or spiritual.
09:10 Now today we are Dealing with goodness, again, the same thing. The word definition is crazy because the word definition is simply goodness is say. You’ll simply say one.
09:21 One is saying here high quality, goodness, the quality or state of being good. That’s it, goodness. So I have to go and look for good again in the Merriam Webster dictionary.
09:31 Then there it says high quality, correct or proper, somewhat high but not excellent quality. But that’s all. Not that world definition.
09:39 Current English Bible definition is simply put together. I just got together and put together so that it makes it simple for us. We are not to do good and not evil, right? Do not do evil, but do good.
09:52 Now taking from there, we are not to do hurtful and harmful things. So evil is always hurtful and harmful, both to us and to others. So always remember evil is always.
10:05 Sin is both hurtful and harmful to us and also to others. But helpful, beneficial, useful things. Do.
10:13 Do good means good is helpful, beneficial, useful. Goodness means it’s the act of releasing this helpful, beneficial and useful. Being helpful, beneficial and useful to others, being helpful, it becomes helpful and beneficial.
10:32 Useful to us because we are doing good. Now by now we will see a common thread. What God is telling us in this fruit of the Spirit.
10:42 The common thread is always about others, care for others. Patience. Now that’s why God says patience.
10:49 Remember the promises of God. We do not impatiently won’t block it, but patience. The other patience.
10:57 When people are suffering or doing or not able to learn quickly or whatever with others, we are supposed to be patient. Patient means we take. They’re taking time, we have to wait.
11:08 We have to wait. If they’re taking time, we’re not going to get. We get upset and angry and cut through and all that that is hurting, hurtful things.
11:17 Not beneficial to them, not beneficial to us. We are hurting them. You’re not helpful to them, you’re not useful to them.
11:23 So when people are slow in learning, we be patient. When people are timid, we help them to grow. When people are having issues, as children of God having issues, we always want to do the right thing.
11:37 Now goodness today is the same thing. It’s beneficial to others. Now kindness is feeling enough.
11:43 You have to do kindness is feeling to do the right thing. You want to care for sincere care, sincere. Wanting to make people joyful, make people joyful, wanting them to be joyful.
11:57 So you want that happen. Sincere desire is there now you have to do it. You have to do it.
12:06 Just being, feeling, feeling, feeling giving what you’re not going to do. It’s a doer of the word. So kindness.
12:12 Now, you show kindness. When you show kindness, goodness will follow. Goodness will follow when you show kindness.
12:19 Why? Because you are doing now things that are beneficial, helpful. Now, as you see the common thread here, all the time God is talking about taking care of others, helping others, solving others. Why then what about me? He takes care of me.
12:36 That’s why he tells him, son, do this your matter. Do not worry about it. Your matter, brother and sister, do not worry about it.
12:45 You pray in faith, believing he’s heard you let it go and you do the right thing daily, whatever your needs. You pray in faith, ask in my name and I will do it unto you. And if he’s not coming, wait patiently.
13:00 If it is a promise of God, if there’s no promise of God anywhere in the Bible, of course he’s not going to give that to you. And now when you’re praying for things and you pray amiss, Book of James says, you do not receive because you pray amiss. You pray away from what God’s will is.
13:17 Now, when we pray amiss, beyond what God’s will is, obviously he can’t give us. He can’t give us because he’ll harm us. It’s not beneficial, it’s not good for us.
13:29 So it’s not helpful and beneficial and useful to me. So it’s not useless. Therefore, remember when God made the earth, he said, and he saw it good.
13:38 When God made the earth and then he saw it good. Now what is he doing there? He thinks that it’s beneficial, Useful to his creation. Helpful, beneficial.
13:45 Useful to his creation. Whatever God said, oh, I do. And he saw it good.
13:53 He, our Father, God saw it good. Why it’s going to be beneficial, helpful and useful to us. So, brothers and sisters, today, it’s always caring for others, always caring and loving others.
14:09 But it starts with love, joy and peace within us. That is why yesterday, sisters, those who are married, those who have unbelieving husbands, please go and listen to that. Yesterday’s one, that’s the 13th of September.
14:23 Kindness and wives. Many wives make serious error here. I’m talking about Christian wives.
14:29 And the other problem is there are many times when people have accepted Christ and they find the peace of they got power to do, cast out something or whatever. They become prideful. Like, you know, when they look at their husband, oh, he’s an unbeliever.
14:47 I’m a believer. I got power. I am a child of God.
14:50 If you’re thinking like this, you’re already not a child of God. You better get your heart and mind ordered to be humble. To say, Lord, mercy.
15:00 Lord, you have opened my eyes. Not that I opened my eyes myself. You opened my eyes.
15:07 So when you’re looking people in the outside world and they’re suffering or they’re saying things wrongly, even when they’re cursing you, you must sorry. Mercy, Lord, mercy. Because they do not know.
15:19 And they’re captives. They’re captured by Satan and they have no power over Satan. I too was like this, Lord.
15:25 I too. That is humbleness. That will support you, that will get you through that God will immediately.
15:32 The angels will surround you and minister to you and protect you. All kinds of things. Because why you are doing what Jesus did on the cross? Forgive them, Father.
15:40 Forgive them, Father. They know not what they do. Forgive them, Father.
15:46 They are captives. I was a captive. You all do not know what a captive I was with so many demons.
15:54 Each of us were captives, brothers and sisters. So in Jesus name I pray that you look and we will begin to meditate and think like Jesus. That’s the fruit of the Spirit.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today is the power of Christ Daily 12th September 2015 still we are the work of God. What is the work of God? Believing the one whom he sent, Believing Jesus Christ. Examine yourself, patience, three.
00:20 The title is work of God. Examine yourself, patience and three. Because it’s the third part of this whole thing now.
00:27 Again the haze became very bad yesterday, so we are recovering again. We were whacked one more time with this. What happens is when we breathe in this thing, we cannot help it because it comes into the house and all that.
00:44 And even if you are in aircon place, we open the door, it comes in. So what happens is these particles, minute particles, enter our lungs and as it enters the lungs, the lung begins to react by producing phlegm, trying to get rid of it. And while this is going on, the lung becomes inflamed and you begin to feel the tightening of the lungs.
01:04 And of course we are trying to avoid taking these antibiotics and taking anti inflammatory pills and all that, because that has its own set of problems. But when you cannot finally help it, take it, what else to do? Okay, we have faith in Christ, but this is a sowing and reaping rule. We are sowing, keep sowing this breathing.
01:25 We are breathing the rubbish that we are sowing there. And the sowing and reaping rule applies. But in mercy now we ask for mercy because we cannot go anywhere else.
01:34 We are here. Mercy from Jesus and mercy comes. That’s why I’m able to get up this morning and do this sharing and teaching.
01:45 And also it edifies me when I start teaching and remembering the scriptures and talking about the scriptures, the word of God and thinking of Jesus Christ and to examine myself, I too was examining myself. It helps me also, brothers and sisters, while I’m doing this, it helps me greatly. So thank Jesus Christ all of us benefit make it worse.
02:04 Yesterday suddenly when my wife opened the back door, the whole kitchen was full of smoke. And so I had to go and deal with it. So I tried to put an ionizer in the kitchen to remove the smoke.
02:15 An ionizer will remove the smoke, but it will take a long time because we don’t have industrial ionizers. We have a normal house, ionizers. And in the same time.
02:24 So in the meantime, while doing all this, we are still breathing this. You know what has happened? Some contractor who was doing some house renovation near my neighbour or 1, 2 doors away or whatever, he’s burning things looks like. Can you imagine how wicked this nonsense is? Instead of disposing that they are burning this now, when they are burning this, what we do.
02:45 I have to love them. Why? I have to love them for my own sake. I love them for my own sake.
02:51 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. I love them for my own sake. Because God is love.
02:57 My Father is love. And he tells me to love and I will love them. I forgive them and ask mercy from God to see me through.
03:05 Mercy from Jesus Christ to see me through with all this, see my family through. You know, now we always, as I said, one rule is if I think I know something I do not know as I ought to know as yet. And that is simple version is they do not know anything as they should.
03:24 That is First Corinthians 8, 2. That’s foundational. We better remember.
03:28 I must remember this. All of us better remember this. 2nd Corinthians 13:15.
03:34 The other foundation of Scripture for us is examine and test and evaluate your own selves. So we have to examine daily. When you get up, say Jesus Christ of Nazareth, my brother.
03:49 He loves me. He suffered on the cross, died on the cross and rose, and the Holy Spirit brought him out. Because of the faith of Christ.
03:57 I must have the faith of Christ. Christ is in me, in my spirit. And now I must be formed in my heart and soul.
04:04 Where is my heart and my soul, my soul? He must be formed there. But to do that, I have to look at the issues that are going wrong. Because when I look at the Word of God, beholding it, beholding it, meditating it, did I do anything? And this rubbish, then the Word of God will change me from inside.
04:22 That is true. We can’t change ourselves. But the word of God is Jesus.
04:26 It changes us. So examine ourselves, test and evaluate your own self, my own self. Test and prove ourselves that we are not counterfeit, that we are not fakes.
04:35 If we are not fakes, first of all we will have the fruit of the Spirit. One fruit, as I said, and all the various shades and colors and tastes and structure or character of the fruit. Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.
04:56 Now, love, joy and peace. And then it comes. Patience.
04:56 Now, love, joy and peace. Brothers and sisters, seek ye the kingdom of God first. And all your needs are settled.
05:07 They’ll be added. There’s a promise. So what we do, we seek the kingdom of God.
05:12 How to seek the kingdom of God? In Romans it is defined. Kingdom of God is a condition of your soul, which is, if your soul is in righteousness, peace and joy, you are in the Kingdom of God. Righteousness.
05:25 Our righteousness are like filthy rags. Jesus says so his righteousness is over us. Now think of ourselves this like we are in a sandwich.
05:35 Jesus is a sandwich. We are inside it, inside the sandwich. So outside we cannot be affected.
05:41 Any corruption of the world, spiritual corruption comes, it has to pass through Jesus. If we are all time in Jesus, we will not be corrupted by the world now. So we are in Christ Jesus and he is sitting in the heavenlies.
05:57 He is sitting beside Father God. Everything is under his feet. And now Christ is in us now.
06:05 Righteousness. His righteousness, his righteousness. So even when we fall into sin, we are convicted because the spirit of God is in us.
06:12 We know we are wrong even before going wrong. He will be distressing you. You must learn to stop.
06:20 Stop, stop. You must learn to stop. Brothers and sisters, the problem is we don’t stop.
06:25 We continue doing and then fall into sin. Don’t run away first, first stop. Be still, be still.
06:32 When you know there’s a shaking going on, a temptation coming on, either you run away or you be still there because you can’t move away from the office. You want to shout at somebody or whatever. Be still, be still.
06:44 Why? And then do the breath of God. So many things he has given us. Breath of God in faith.
06:50 You’re breathing. Breathe now. Of course, when I go in the kitchen yesterday, I dare not do the breath of God inside there, can I praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
07:00 No, no. So do the breath of God. Then Peace, peace comes.
07:07 My peace. I give unto you a peace that the world cannot understand. And that’s my peace.
07:13 I give. That’s Jesus saying, you know, Jesus Christ, the husband of my soul, telling, I give you my peace. I give you my peace, son.
07:21 We are part of the virgin bride of Christ. He how do you give peace? Peace in Christ means we want, willing to do what he says without the peace. So that also he says, do not now guard your heart with the peace of God.
07:36 Let it rule over you. I mean, when you’re doing something and there’s some peace begin to move away from you, you stop. You know, God is telling you, son, daughter, there is something coming up.
07:47 There’s some problem. So you stop. Which is going to cause you more problem now.
07:50 Joy, joy. Worship him. Worship him.
07:55 Think there must be some connecting song or something for me there will be connecting song, as I said. So you take one song that you begin to sing to him, make the words, write the song to your God, the lover of your soul, the husband of your soul. Take one song that you know, even you can take a Christian song, Christian song, we know, we worship and all that.
08:18 But if you take a song that actually triggers your heart and soul, even before you came to the Lord, take the song, take the tune and write the words, make words for him. I say, brothers and sisters, you today compose a song for Jesus Christ and see what happens. You compose a song with the tune that you have.
08:37 If you can write tunes, better still, I am supposed to be tone deaf. I’ll be always out of tune, looks like. And everybody tells me that.
08:44 And I also know that, so. But even then when I put on the earphone and listening to some, I may listen to a word song, a Neil diamond song or whatever. And I’ll use the words that I’ve composed for my God, I’ve composed for Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
08:59 And I sing, I tell you, brothers and sisters, you will get a joy. You’ll forget all this world thing will pass away. Now what we’re talking today is patience.
09:06 Examine yourself. Patience, patience. Now the problem of understanding.
09:12 Because over the time we have been brought to understand, understand certain words that are really not correct. For instance, people used to tell me I’m very impatient. My wife will tell me you are impatient.
09:24 I’m talking about before, born again, even after born again. They’ll tell me and you know, they’ll tell me something like this. And I used to wonder, maybe, maybe not.
09:33 I’m in a hurry to do things. I know what I have to do already means I must complete it like yesterday. If I need to do something already in my spirit settled, I will go and go and go and get it done, finish, end of story.
09:47 Otherwise it forms a restlessness in me that something is missing, something left undone. Now and then when I begin to move fast, it will tell me it is impatience. But actually I have come to know that’s not impatience.
10:05 For instance, if you are waiting for a bus and then you’re already delayed because something you’re praying, Lord, bring the past quickly. Lord, I have to go and get this done right? That’s not impatience, that is you already boo, booed. Here you are late and you want God to do something for you to get in time.
10:22 Now others may be waiting for you. What about that? Love your neighbor as yourself. That’s not impatience, brothers and sisters, that is getting the thing done right? Now then you examine yourself.
10:33 Why are you in this position? Am I impatient because I got up late? Now then we have to stop that. Because many times the world and your heart will Excuse you to say, oh, I’m patient, but actually it may be laziness. It actually may be laziness.
10:50 And they tell you, you know, you see, you’re being impatient. But actually I am patient, I’m a patient person. But actually may be full of laziness, slothfulness, producing nothing that is Zen.
11:04 So what is this patience? What God taught love, joy, peace, patience. What is this patience? The Bible definition is before I come to that, you see, for instance, microarmon is not good, but I also still use it because it can change us frequencies are not and still harm us. They can destroy the food inside.
11:24 The frequency become harm moves on into our body. But we still use sometimes to defrost food or to just a quick heat up, you know, don’t too long, don’t try cooking there and all now. So there is a joke.
11:37 Somebody said impatience is putting something in the micro oven and telling it to go faster, faster, faster. Now if you need, I now put something to something or something. I take a piece of bread and I put it for quick thing.
11:53 And I got to come and get a scripture done this morning and I’m searching for it. And obviously I want the Micravan to be fast. So now impatience, if not impatience, if that kind of thing not checked it can turn it into anxiety, can become anxious.
12:16 That is sin. If you want things done fast, move, get it done like yesterday. Yes, everything must be settled because I have obligation to settle people.
12:27 I have an obligation for my family. I’m a provider, I’ve got work to do. I’m called by the servant as a servant of most High God.
12:34 I got things to do, I want to search scriptures. I’m searching quickly, fast, quickly learning skills to do fast. That’s not impatience, that is necessary.
12:43 Those who don’t do that actually are a little lazy or slothful or misunderstood. That the the thorn bushes, the information misinformation of the brain is working on them. Now actual patience, God says is this when he has made you a promise and then things are going wrong and then you cannot wait because now you act, you act and do something because you are waiting for the promise and not happening.
13:14 And then you begin to do something. That is impatience. That is impatience.
13:20 Suppose God told you son, don’t go and get this kind of job. Let’s say you are a person looking for a job and the job that is offered, you know in your heart this job will make you sin eventually. And God said, no, it is not for you, because you are righteous.
13:36 Because my righteous on you. You don’t want to do the wrong things. And then you still cannot stand it.
13:39 And then you go and did something. Why to get that? Because I cannot. I cannot.
13:48 I need income. I need income and went for the job. That is impatience and that is terrible sin.
13:53 Patience is believing in the word of God, believing in promises and staying put. Like sometimes we know, put on the whole armor of God. And after having done all stand, just stand.
14:06 That is why in The Scripture in 1 Thessalonians 5:14, it says, admonish those who are out of line. Admonish means correct them. No, discipline them.
14:16 Tell me wrong. Correct them. Undisciplined, unruly, disorderly.
14:21 You have to correct them. You have to warn them. Encourage the timid who lack spiritual courage and courage.
14:29 We have to encourage them because they lack spiritual courage. Again here. Timid and lacking special courage.
14:34 People may think timid is the worldly thing. Help the spiritually weak. Be patient with everyone.
14:42 Now, whenever we are meeting people and they have some issues and they are going on, we have to be patient with them. But we do our work quickly and fast. As fast as possible, accurately as possible, fast as possible, without running and making errors.
14:57 Making errors. Okay. Now that is why in Hebrews 6:15 it says, after he had endured this Abraham, after he had endured, patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
15:09 Now to obtain the promises of God, we have to be patient. When things are going wrong, do not act. Call on the blood of Jesus, call on the breath of Jesus, but do not act.
15:20 Because you act after God has promised you and you begin to go and act contrary to God’s word. It’s impatience. That’s not patience.
15:29 So, brothers and sisters, today is a wonderful day to remember. Patience. You get the promise of God believing the word of God and then you don’t do anything that is contrary to the word of God.
15:40 To achieve the so called promise that you are waiting for whatever you are waiting for, you try to go and do and achieve that. No, not true. In Jesus name, today we pray that I release patience to all of us.
