1 Corinthians 13:1-3King James Version (KJV)
13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels,
and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass,
or a tinkling cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries,
and all knowledge; and though I have all faith,
so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though
I give my body to be burned, and have not charity,
it profiteth me nothing.

1 John 4:5-13New King James Version (NKJV)

5 They are of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world,
and the world hears them.
6 We are of God. He who knows God hears us;
he who is not of God does not hear us.
By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

Knowing God Through Love

7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone
who loves is born of God and knows God.

8 He who does not love does not know God, for God is love.

9 In this the love of God was manifested toward us,
that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world,
that we might live through Him.

10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and
sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

Seeing God Through Love

12 No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another,
God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us.

13 By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us,
because He has given us of His Spirit.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters. Today the power of Christ Daily 4th February 2016 Proof that God abides in you. Proof that God abides in you.

00:13 What is the proof? How do you know? Many are confused with this. Many just sort of believe that God is in me and I am in Christ and Christ is in me. They do not know because that’s why it’s fantastic.

00:27 Jesus Christ. You go and search the Scriptures and meditate upon it. And you talk to Him.

00:33 Talk to him audibly, softly, or talk to him in your heart silently. Talk to him with your mind silently. You can do so many things with how to communicate with Jesus.

00:44 But you can only do this if you know he’s real and he saved you and he loves you and he suffered for you. And then you want. And then you begin to talk to Him.

00:55 Ask Him. And then suddenly things happen. Simple miracles.

00:59 I’ll call it simple miracles because big miracle. And after that started with that my parking. I keep telling that’s the earliest Minister Sarah asking I need a car park and it pop up there suddenly when everybody has no car park.

01:14 Mine come right at spot. Particularly when I’m going into ministry. I’m talking this about 20 years ago when I first started.

01:21 And then we begin to realize this is Jesus. You know, it gives me not coincidence. Don’t begin to look at coincidence and all that’s what the devil tries to do.

01:30 He doesn’t want to give your heart and mind and fallen nature heart and mind. And the devil will never want to give Jesus Christ glory. So always first you’ll be praying for something when the thing comes.

01:42 The devil will try to tell me in my heart or the devil is whispering in my ears that you know, this is coincidence. This is not dislocated and defeated all lies. Don’t believe that because nothing happens without Jesus Christ agreeing to it,
allowing it or causing it.

02:01 Now, Jesus only causes good things for his children. That is a given. That’s the scripture.

02:06 You must remember that Jesus only does good things for his children. He is love. God is love.

02:14 Now the next thing is you must make sure your heart and mind command them in the name of Jesus Christ. I command my heart and mind to know that Jesus Christ, the husband, my soul, my Savior, my Lord and Master, the Son of the living God, the King of
Kings and Lord of Lords. Everything is under his feet and nothing escapes his eyes.

02:33 And he has got complete control of the Name above all names, only loves me and will do good things for me. He cannot be tempted and he will not tempt anyone because God cannot be tempted and God will not tempt anyone. So whatever issues happening to
me, I. If I just sown it, what I sow, I will reap.

02:51 And Jesus is sowing, reaping, allowing some reaping, not to the point that I cannot bear. He’ll allow when he allows. There are four or five segments on why Jesus allows trials.

03:04 He doesn’t cause the trials. He allows the trials because he wants us to return to him. There are a number of reasons why you change.

03:11 You will overcome. I will overcome. Now, all this is there.

03:16 So therefore. But the problem is, as I said, most people, all the years I see, they know of Christ. They don’t know Christ.

03:25 They know of Christ, they don’t know Christ. And this has caused a lot of problem for Christians who really want to follow. Some people really want to follow.

03:33 But they are in this dilemma, in this matrix, like in a magic, like in a Maya, in a Confucian. No need. You see, today we’re going to deal with how the written word of God shows you what is the proof that God abides in you.

03:50 And if you don’t have the proof, go and get the proof. That’s all. It is very simple.

03:54 And you can do all things through Christ Jesus. Jesus said, you can do all things through me, but you can do nothing without me. Now then people say, what do you mean, nothing? I eat food, I go to work, I get job and all.

04:08 Yeah. Eventually it comes to nothing. Yeah.

04:10 You are doing all this when you go to. You can do nothing without me. Because you know why he allows it? Because he pours rain even over the wicked so they can get food, they can get food grown.

04:22 So he gives rain even to the wicked. That’s why Jesus commands to us, is love your enemy? Even so, he himself gives all this for the wicked so that he will survive. And why, Bitto, with the desire that none should perish.

04:37 Now, let’s look at it. Yesterday we ended up with this thing whereby he showed a more excellent way. First Corinthians 12:31, where Apostle Paul says, look here, you can earnestly desire for the greater gifts and all that, but yet I will show you a
still more excellent way.

04:54 And what is the excellent way is unselfish love. Unselfish love, that means pure love, sincere love from a pure heart. That was defined in the Bible.

05:04 Sincere love with a pure heart. Now he’s showing a more excellent way. Instead of desiring gifts and all, he’ll show you a more excellent way to Have a sincere love from a pure heart, unselfish love that is the highest of them all.

05:18 Now I’m going to go to scripture, further there and then finally come to proof. What is the proof? That you know. That you know.

05:24 That you know. That you know. And that Jesus Christ is in you and you are in Christ and.

05:32 And then you know when this is not happening, you know Jesus Christ is not in you and you’re not in Christ. You better settle it. You know how good.

05:40 What a good news, isn’t it? That means you know written down scripture. Now here, brothers and sisters, according to 1 Corinthians 13:1 3 says, Though I speak with tongues of men and angels and have not charity, charity is old. I’m reading from old
King James.

05:55 King James Version Original King James Version Charity is love, despite the old English is charity, love. And I do not have charity. I have become a sounding brow, empty vessel.

06:05 No, I become an empty vessel. I pray in tongues, speaking in tongues of different, speaking in angels language and all that. I become empty vessel, though I have, if I don’t have love, and though I have the gift of prophecy and understand all
mysteries, and I do not have charity and all knowledge I have and through.

06:24 And though I have all faith. Can you imagine Professor Paul saying you can have all faith, all knowledge, and you understand all mysteries. He says about him, you know, I can have all faith, all knowledge, all mysteries and I could remove mountains
and get them out, you know, just cast them out in faith, that kind of faith.

06:43 But I have no love. I am nothing. I am nothing.

06:47 And I bestow all my goods. I give all my goods to feed the poor. And though I give my body to be burned and do not have love, I profit nothing, I gain nothing.

06:59 Brothers and sisters, these are very important scriptures you drink. All this, all this, all this, all this you do like for instance, many people without Christ, they do this. They give, feed the poor and all that, but they may not have love.

07:13 They will say, but I love you love the poor. But you see this situation, you come later. Love what love according to God’s laws, not according to your own heart desire how you love.

07:23 And sometimes people feed the poor and all what to, to get accolade, to get recognition. To get recognition. So when you get recognition, God says, look, you already got your reward on earth, you are not going to get reward in heaven.

07:35 That’s why whenever you pray for people, the segment that I’ve narrated, you cannot tell people I prayed for you, brother and sister, because you lose your reward in Heaven, you don’t say anything. You want a reward in heaven, you don’t want reward
here. Then people say thank you.

07:49 Thank you for praying for me and say thank you, that’s your business. But if you are desiring this thanks from them. And you say, I’ll pray for you, brother, I’ll pray for you, sister.

07:58 I prayed for you. Then what’s happening? You’re not going to get a reward here. You got a reward here because you say thank you and all that thing of you.

08:06 But you do not get reward from God. Now which reward do I want? I want it from God. When he rewards, can he imagine the kind of reward he has for me? So we keep quiet.

08:17 We learn from the word of God. All this sadly is not repeatedly taught in churches. And then everybody will say, I pray for you, I pray for you Jesus pray.

08:29 Let’s just pray. When somebody has difficulty, let’s just pray. And sometimes you have to put the prayer.

08:34 Even the pocd. Some pastors or some servants will put it there. Or you yourself put the prayer praying.

08:39 Why others can use it and pray like that. That’s not because. That’s why.

08:43 The intention. What is the intention in our heart? What is the God goes by intention in Tamil, what is the nokam and not no kum inside you? What is the intention? So intention is in your heart. God goes by that.

08:56 Two people can do the same thing, but the different intention. One is a good intention, one is the holy intention. One is a humble intention, the other one is a proud intention.

09:04 I want people to recognize me. I want to show people, then headache, humble ourselves. Brothers and sisters, now in Galatians 5:22 23 yesterday I read the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness,
gentleness and self control.

09:20 So finally achievement must be self control. Without self control, our life will be in a mess. Real mess.

09:27 First Corinthians 13:13 and self control. That is why people can’t self control. So a spirit of self seeking, self want, selfishness can be cast out.

09:38 You see, there’s another miracle here. Many do not know. In fact 99% looks like do not know.

09:43 You can cast out the spirit of lack of self control. You can cast out in the name of Jesus Christ. I cast out the spirit of selfishness in the name of Jesus Christ.

09:49 I cast out the spirit of anger in the name of Jesus Christ. I cast out the spirit of self seeking in the name of Jesus Christ. I receive the spirit of self control in the name of Jesus Christ.

10:04 I command my Heart and mind to receive and to be in self control. In the name of Jesus Christ I receive. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command the heart and mind to receive a spirit of kindness and faithfulness.

10:17 Oh, you can pray all that inside there you can make a prayer out of this fruit of the spirit and then you can do this every day. Then you see yourself changing. You see your change changing.

10:27 So one sister yesterday wrote and said, you know, she changed. She’s so grateful to God, you know, that God is changing her. Why? Because one student, her student said a student or some child there in a hostel or whatever said that the child’s
teacher asked her to write about the person they.

10:47 They like most or something. I’m not too clear about this. And then the child came.

10:52 So I wrote about this sister, about you sister, because about you, because I said my this madam man doesn’t lie. This man doesn’t lie. And she’s so can you imagine? A sister now knows she can stop lies, doesn’t have to lie anymore because you lie
out of fear.

11:10 Generally people have to lie out of fear. You can cast away the spirit of lies because sometimes people don’t want to lie. You lie.

11:15 Why the spirit of lies. My brothers and sisters, go get the prayers for the. Even Tamil prayers are even more accurate for the Tamil Tamil people because each culture has their own set of issues, you know.

11:29 And then go and take the English prayer sub Praying brothers and sisters for our own sake. Now here Corinthians 13:13. And now faith, hope and love abide.

11:42 These three abide. And the greatest of these is love. That means Apostle Paul is saying faith, hope, all can be.

11:50 They all abide together. Faith, hope and love. But the greatest is love.

11:54 Now first John 4:5. Now we are coming to this proof, Mr. Neelam. Almost a proof issue.

12:00 First John 4:5. It’s a long scripture I have to read slowly. They are of the world, therefore they speak as of the world and world hears them.

12:10 We are God, he who knows God hears us and who is not. This from the new King James Version. They are of the world, therefore they speak as of the world and the world hears them.

12:22 We are of God, he who knows God hears us. And he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

12:33 Now therefore some people left the congregation. Apostle John is writing the rest Congregation. And John is saying what? They are of the world, therefore they speak as of the world.

12:44 The world hears them. We are of God. He who knows God Hears us.

12:49 Those who know God hears us. Hears who? The apostles. Hear what? They are writing this.

12:54 Hear what Apostles. He who knows God hears us. Apostle John is writing hears us means hears what the apostles are saying.

13:01 What the apostles are saying through the written Scripture. They are saying God is using them to inspire scriptures written in the Bible. So hears us, hears the word of God, obeys the word of God, keeps the word of God as spoken by the apostles.

13:15 Now we are of God. He who knows God hears us, obeys the word of God as written in the epistles, written in the letters by the apostles, inspired by God. He who is not of God does not hear us.

13:28 That means when they are telling. When these apostles are telling people or written scripture. Now when I take the scriptures and show somebody and then tell my in the congregation, sister, brother, you cannot do this.

13:38 This the Scripture. They’re not listening, right? Sometimes they leave. Now they’re not listening and leave means then I must understand this.

13:45 He. They who are not of God, they does not hear the scriptures, doesn’t want to listen to the scriptures, does not want to obey the scriptures. Of course they get angry with me and go.

13:53 But they don’t realize their heart and mind are duping them, deceiving them. When the Spirit of lie enters, it deceives you. First deceives the host first the spirit of lies enters you.

14:05 Means it deceives the host first deceives, first deciphers. That means the spirit of lies enters in me. I am deceived first.

14:12 Then my brothers and sisters, today my understanding. Get rid of all that. The people will leave.

14:16 Don’t listen to the scriptures, means they are not of God. Leave them alone. Now let us love one another.

14:22 Our love is of God. Everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. Everyone who loves is born of God and knows God and knows God.

14:23 Everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love, does not know God. For God is love.

14:33 He who does not love does not know God. For God is love. In this the love of God was manifest towards us.

14:45 That God has sent his only begotten Son into the world that we might live through Him. In this the love of God was manifest. This action that God sent his Son and his Son suffered on earth, suffered on the cross, died and rose again.

15:00 The love of God is shown to us, is exhibited to us. In this we know that the love of God, this is the love of God. In this the love of God is shown by his sacrifice of his Son.

15:11 That in this is love. That we love God. That he loved us and sent His Son to be a ransom for us.

15:21 11. Beloved. If God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

15:22 If God so much he loved us. Right? Then we also must love one another. No one has seen God at any time.

15:32 If we love one another, God abides in us. This is the proof. If we love one another, God abides in us.

15:40 His love has been perfected in us. Now remember this. By this we know that we abide in him, in God.

15:48 He is in us because he has given us grace. What is proof that we love one another? If you are able to love one another as Christ has loved us by giving Himself, we sacrifice ourselves for one another. Who? Disciples.

16:01 Disciples, not people. Don’t listen to scriptures. Listen, don’t listen to.

16:05 Obey the word of God. Not them. Don’t want to obey and follow.

16:07 They want to be disciples. They’re following. Struggling maybe.

16:10 Struggling maybe. If we love one another. If we love them, then God is in you.

16:14 God is in you and you are in Him. And his love has been perfected in us. This is the proof.

16:21 The proof is if you love one another, then God is abiding in you and you are in Him. And love of God. His love of God as He’s been perfected in us.

16:34 What a wonderful proof. That’s how you check. When you cannot love somebody, cannot love one another, then you know straight away you’re not abiding in God.

16:42 You better go and settle this. If you cannot love one another by selfless love, selfless love, then you know this is the proof. Go and read the proof first.

16:51 John 4, 12 and 13. 12 and 13. Brothers, in Jesus name I pray.

16:57 Amen.
