AI-generated transcript below — please excuse any errors
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.

AI-generated transcript below — please excuse any errors
00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, the power of Christ daily. It’s the power of Christ. It’s not my words or what I’m saying or doing is the power of Christ.
00:13 The power of Christ for you. Brothers and sisters, today is 11th September 2015. We are still in the work of God.
00:19 What’s the work of God? Examine yourself and Fruit of the Spirit. That’s the title. Work of God.
00:24 Examine yourself, Fruit, Fruit of the Spirit number two. Second segment. Now yesterday I made an error when I was finally saying that, you know, gentleness.
00:37 God Almighty is almighty God. And it leads those who are young. And I kept repeating it.
00:43 Actually he leads those who are with young, who are with young. I only realized it after when I heard it back. So imagine that.
00:54 Just imagine this. He is so almighty, so powerful, King of kings and Lord of Lords. And yet he stands down and says, those who are young with you, he leads them, he cares for them.
01:10 This is what when God says, you know, it is gentle. It’s not a soft and sweet business. Gentle means the person you are, you have some power and you do not use that power.
01:25 For instance, if you take that example of a man who’s tough. He works in the field or works in the logging and he’s very tough and is muscular and is solid. He will fight, physically fight and all that.
01:39 And yet when he listens to, let’s say, a song and he touches his heart and his daughter is singing the song and he touches his heart and a tear comes down from his eyes. That gentle, tough, but yet sensitive. Sensitive to the things.
02:02 And he sees a woman who is suffering and he feels it and he does something that’s gentle. Gentleness comes when you full of toughness and power and all. And yet you don’t use that power and all that.
02:17 You feel you’re sensitive to the needs of the people, sensitive to your surroundings. That is why husbands have to do these. We have to be sensitive to our wives, sensitive to the wife’s needs, wife, children’s needs.
02:35 Because if you’re tough and all that and then you don’t care, you don’t think about it, you are not sensitive to the issue. You just do what we want to do, on and on and on. That is not gentle.
02:49 That is actually wrong harming, self seeking. It is no self control. It is actually so full of self.
03:01 We will not do that. We will now in Jesus Christ’s name. We have the power in the name of Jesus Christ to be able to be gentle even when we are Tough and all that.
03:12 We will be gentle. As God says, be gentle means be sensitive to the needs of the people. Oh, you are tough, you are healthy, you are fantastic today, this and that.
03:24 And then when somebody is suffering there and somebody is weeping in your office, quietly sitting down there and because something happened to his family, you don’t feel it. You don’t feel it. You’re not gentle, you’re not sensitive, you have to feel it.
03:41 What’s wrong with this boy? What’s wrong with this man? What’s wrong with this sister? What’s wrong with this brother? What’s wrong with this woman? She is in this, her face shows, the countenance shows she’s hurting. And then when they say something that for you is not a problem at all, you say, ah, come on, why you think about these things? Forget about it. That’s kind of not.
04:05 No, you must understand this. God said be gentle because if they are sad and broken on something that you can easily manage, that doesn’t make it that they can easily manage. You do not know the surroundings, you do not know the issues that they are facing.
04:23 That’s why God says if you think you know something, you do not know as you ought to know as yet you don’t know the whole story. So brothers and sisters, today the gentleness is missing because people, especially when young people, young people, when they think they can do the gung ho, they just don’t think about this. I’m talking about by majority, not all, they just don’t think about that somebody who is suffering and that they need.
04:50 That is why in the trains you have to put a clearly. If you see an elderly person, you give your seat. Isn’t that common sense? You see elderly fellow struggling, you don’t give a seat.
05:00 Or you see a person struggling to sit, a woman with their child or something. Of course that’s gentleness. You stop and do.
05:07 You’re feeling it, you’re sensitive. Now having said that, let me also deal with this haze business. Thank you for your prayers and thank you for calling on Christ for us and caring and loving me and my family and others.
05:22 And now this. Okay, Hay this. I also feel sorry for these Indonesians themselves.
05:27 I’m sure they also suffering. Singapore is very bad. Looks like from time to time, unless the rain comes and clears.
05:35 Now what you sow, you reap, you will get out it only mercy miracles. Clear? Yes, I’m still able to do that. My family is still.
05:45 You know, my wife became a bit bad yesterday, but she improved by the evening. She was improving already. Thank Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
05:51 Thank you all brothers and sisters for, you know, one chases 1,000, two chases 10,000, three chase 100,000. That’s the multiples God has put in there. When a few of you get together and think about something, you know, in this case, about us, you know, we’re suffering with this Malaysia or whatever suffering, this haste business.
06:13 And people should be okay. It has an effect because our spirit backing up the thought, whatever you have to think more than that, we have done for you. So I am grateful for all of you who are also listening to this and those who are outside, we pray for them now, even those who are doing nonsense and causing this problem, we love them.
06:38 So every time I take a breath and let’s say, oh, Kayla, I’m coughing, but I better think I love them. Why? Because their fallen nature, the issues are plenty. They don’t know why.
06:50 They do, because driven by greed, of course they may be caught in circumstances and the persons who are doing it may not be the persons who are in control. They are just being employed or whatever. So we love all, we forgive all.
07:03 We forgive and love all for our own sake. I forgive and love all. And I am able to, by the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to love all and forgive everybody and love all.
07:13 And God will see us through. Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Jesus power will see us through.
07:18 Now today I have introduced another scripture in addition to what we are talking about. The fruit of the Spirit. Again, remind ourselves one fruit, second Peter 1:4:8, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, second Peter 1:484, by which we have been given exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
07:51 And then he goes on five. We’ll do this the next few days or so, but also for this very reason, giving all diligence. Add to your faith.
08:01 Virtue to virtue, knowledge to knowledge, Self control to self control. Perseverance. Perseverance to perseverance.
08:10 Godliness to godliness. Brotherly kindness. Brotherly kindness.
08:15 Love. So here Peter has put out, Apostle Peter put up step by step how this whole thing works. It’s sort of equation here.
08:22 And then he says in 8 if these things are yours and abound, you will neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of your Lord Jesus Christ. That means you’ll be useful. You’ll produce good fruits.
08:38 Now let’s look at this from the Fruit of the spirit. You’ll end up. You and I will end up producing good fruits.
08:48 Good fruits. That means the fruit of spirit is there. We have all the shades and all the taste and all lovely things, the flavor of the fruit of the spirit with us.
08:58 And then we’ll produce fruits. Fruits. Because we become fruitful.
09:04 Now we come to the first part. Fruit. 4.
09:07 Corruption that is in the world through lust. You know the world definition lust means it’s always sexual matter. It’s not just sexual matter.
09:14 Lust simply means, in the biblical terms, greed and going after wanting things more and more and more and more wanting and wanting unreasonably, uncontrollably wanting. Now this can apply to the people who are the big corporations or whatever that are cutting down trees and then the rest of it, taking the trees away, just burn the rest of the jungle clearance. Because of course, for money, greed and lust.
09:43 But it is a world. But when those people are doing it, what we do. Jesus clearly says God’s command means we shall not judge those who are in the world.
09:51 Those in the outside we cannot judge. We have to judge those who are within the congregation. We have to judge their conduct.
09:58 We can’t judge and say, you go to heaven or hell or whatever. We have to judge the conduct. We have to judge my own conduct.
10:04 I have to examine my conduct. I have to condemn me and judge myself. And I won’t be judged.
10:09 That’s what the verse of the Bible says. If you examine yourself and judge yourself, you won’t be judged. Because why you judge yourself and change.
10:18 Thank Jesus for that. And we can. Because why? In the name of Jesus Christ, the power is given.
10:24 Thank the blood of Jesus Christ. The power of giving. The Holy Spirit is inside us.
10:28 The Christ is in the spirit, inside us. From the innermost part of our body, the most part of our belly. And Christ is being formed in our soul.
10:39 Surely can. No issue here. Now let’s go on first.
10:43 Now let’s look at this adding business. So somebody, okay, we eat food. Now, let’s say I decide that I like something, I like a particular food, and I begin to go for it.
10:56 Go for it, go for it. That’s actually lasting already. That means if I don’t have it, I get agitated, I get angry, I get upset.
11:03 I will go, I’ll spend the time and energy, drive a couple of miles to go get that food that is actually lusting. So lusting is a broad definition, broader definition in the Bible. And now God says that you have escaped this.
11:18 You have escaped the Corruption that is in the world through lust. The corruption in the world is there because of lust. Lusting for money, lusting for things.
11:27 Lusting, lusting, lusting. Not just never enough, never enough. And this when we and our children or we ourselves working outside, we have to be careful because the spirit of lust will catch us.
11:41 We are sitting and talking to the same people now. That is why even if you are in sales, yes, sales, you have to be successful and all. But if the team becomes.
11:50 I must be successful. I must get more sales. More sales, more sales, more sales.
11:55 Never enough. Of course the company will put that kind of pressure because they were there lasting for their profits. But if you fall into the trap, you’ll end up sinning.
12:05 You’ll end up doing something wrong. You’ll end up saying things wrong to even get the sale. You will end up doing things against your Christ.
12:14 This is the danger. We just follow the world. Yeah, but then my company target is this.
12:20 And I have to do this. Yeah, the company target is this. You better cry out to Christ to say, lord, give me a job that doesn’t make me lust after this thing.
12:29 Lusting and lusting and lusting. Finally God says, you have escaped the corruption of the world through lust. The world through lust is corrupted.
12:37 We don’t want to be corrupted. So we have to become wise. Wise to think and examine ourselves even in a job.
12:45 You really mean to tell me that your God, the husband of your soul, will not give you a different job even in a recession? Now our faith must be in Christ. Our faith must be in the faith of Christ. He said, never leave here for secure.
13:04 So brothers and sisters, we can get out of this. So just don’t be thinking, don’t be trapped and don’t become a captive to the world system. You become a captive to the world system.
13:15 The peace. You won’t have peace already when you have no peace. Now the fruit of spirit is what? Love, joy and peace, isn’t it? Love, joy and peace.
13:24 If you don’t have the first three things, seek the kingdom of God, which is righteousness, peace and joy. If we don’t have the peace, peace, your health will go. So yeah.
13:32 Then after that the company is going to care for you. Yeah. They will give you a medical card.
13:36 And then when the medical card runs out, what happens? And we know 90% of diseases are caused by spiritual roots. We know this. There are clear cut statistics and studies done.
13:40 90% of diseases are caused by this world will say stress. Stress. It is because of this.
13:57 So while you are accompanied and then it may look good, they will give you a present. They give you a trip and they give you oh, then you go a trip and come back and you feel good and they forget about this. But actually, step by step, the world is sucking you into lusting after things.
14:14 Does it mean that you shouldn’t get rich? No. God said, I’ll give you power to get wealth and I will not add no sorrow to it. I’ll give you power to get wealth and there’ll be no sorrow added to it.
14:25 While the world system is they give you wealth and add sorrow to it every day. So therefore you have to trust your God in Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus power will see you through.
14:36 Now that is why in second Peter 1:4:8 starts with that is why anywhere, any job you are in, the lust of the world will creep in. So you watch out. Even in some jobs that you may think it is not a sales job, you may think is this.
14:54 Suddenly they have the KPI key performance index. They’ll keep on tightening the key performance index. They keep on tightening the key performance index to the point that you are getting stressed out.
15:06 No more peace, no more joy. And you can’t change their key performance index. It’s their company.
15:11 So you better cry out to the Lord and look for another job. And live without our means and righteousness, peace and joy. We have health, health for the family and all that.
15:21 Now when you have all that, the money won’t be stolen. The devil came to steal, kill and destroy. He can’t steal from you.
15:27 You cast him, get rid of him in the name of Jesus Christ. And at the same time you’re keeping your righteousness, peace and joy in you. Health is given by Jesus Christ.
15:35 All that is happening and money is not stolen. If not through health itself. All the chase.
15:41 You did all they told you to do and chase isn’t it. Health itself will suck off your monies. People have sold houses and then just to pay for some chemo or something.
15:54 Brothers and sisters, today let’s focus on this second Peter 1:4 to 8 and also the Spirit, the fruit of the Spirit. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily. 10-9-2015 Work of God. Examine yourself.
00:12 Fruit of the Spirit. Fruit of the Spirit. Brothers and sisters, those of you who are not aware I’m in Malaysia and the haze is very bad.
00:23 Haze is actually a lot of smoke pollution from burning the land, burning Indonesia, the subterranean fire. You know, there are of course people who do wrong things, burn things in cutting off large jungles and all that and they just burn it instead of clearing it properly. And this has come across here and it’s very bad in the last several days and it’s affecting everybody.
00:52 A lot of people with asthma, children with asthma, people with older, people with already lungs are weak and all that. Many are being admitted to hospital and this has caused a lot of disruptions and it of course affects all of us. And I am ain’t no spring chicken, as they say.
01:14 Ain’t no spring chicken means because we are not young anymore. So it does affect us. And therefore there are sometimes delays in getting this out in the morning.
01:26 Therefore brothers and sisters, we pray that this has been clear and everybody who is affected by this is safe by the mercy of Jesus Christ. They are kept safe and they come to know the living God, the Almighty God, the King of kings and Lord of Lords, the God who loves everybody, the God who created them and that they will get to Jesus Christ who really loved them and suffered and died for each one of us. We pray by the meantime, keep in mind if it’s ever delay here, it’s because one of these things like this.
02:03 In Jesus name I pray all be well. Amen. Now today the word is fruit of the Spirit.
02:10 Yesterday we talked about examining ourselves. Examining ourselves. If we don’t examine ourselves and we are not tested by ourselves and then we find ourselves, we cannot prove ourselves.
02:23 We find ourselves. We are fake. We are not fake Christians.
02:25 We are not fraud Christians. We want to be true Christians. Therefore we will examine, test and evaluate our own selves.
02:33 Those of you who have not heard that very important to examine ourselves because God’s command and keeps us in check, keeps us in check and keeps us on the path to reach home. We are not from here. Our home is heaven.
02:47 There is a segment I said our home. Our home is coming. It’s a fantastic thing.
02:55 It’s got roads and buildings made of glass, gold, gold that is like glass the light goes through. That’s our home. So we better prepare ourselves.
03:08 Prepare ourselves means believe in Christ. What’s the work of God? Believing in the One whom He sent believe in Christ. And when we believe in Christ and our faith is in Christ, our faith is in the faith of Christ.
03:20 He’ll make us do what he wants us to do. And we will be changed from glory to glory by the Word. As we keep looking at the Word, meditating on the Word of God, on the areas that we need, it will happen now.
03:34 Today. The Word is fruit of the Spirit. Now, the Spirit of Spirit.
03:38 I’ll read this in Galatians 5, 22, 23. I’ll read from the Catholic version, Galatians 5, 22,23. The fruit of the Spirit by contrast.
03:46 The fruit of the Spirit is love. Contrast and contrast from the world matters line. The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.
04:03 There is no law against such things. In fact, you should do this. That’s the cause of the haste.
04:10 Brothers and sisters, I’m coughing here now. Amen. Thank Jesus.
04:13 Now the love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. Now let’s look at this. So if you have one fruit, this is very important.
04:33 No, it’s not Fruits of the Spirit. This is the Holy Spirit. When you come to Christ and accepted him as your Lord and Savior and accepted that he suffered and died for you, and he took your sins on himself and he rose again.
04:47 And he’s the Son of God. He’s God himself. He and Father God are one.
04:51 And he sends the Holy Spirit to us. He said, I have to go. If I do not go, I can’t send the Holy Spirit to you.
04:57 And now Jesus went and he sent the Holy Spirit. And the Holy Spirit Spirit is in us and Christ is in us through the Holy Spirit, in our Spirit, attached to our Spirit. Now Christ has to be formed in our heart and mind.
05:11 That our soul, Christ has been formed permanently and molded there permanently. And then our life will be completely different. The way we act, the way we think.
05:24 We will be bold, all that. Now this is formed from glory to glory. As we are changed, ever increasingly, ever increasingly, we change.
05:33 And that happens when you meditate, examine ourselves and the issues. And then we are changed by beholding in the Word as if in a mirror. We look at the Word of God and the Word of God.
05:44 We are looking there as if in the mirror that we want to be. That I want to be that. When I am looking at the Word of God today, the fruit of the Spirit.
05:52 That is what love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, self control. I am looking at this I want to be this. I must become this.
06:01 I must become this. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to do this, to receive this, to accept all this. Accept the fruit of the Spirit which is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.
06:16 Now let’s take the first three. Love, joy and peace. So it is one fruit.
06:22 Now let’s imagine a pomegranate. I like that fruit, pomegranate. And it’s hard to get and it’s very costly these days.
06:30 The pomegranate outside is a different color. It is a very dark purplish like, right. It’s almost brown sometimes because it is withered or whatever.
06:40 You cut it inside you get like pearls. Each of the seeds are like pearls and shiny and red. Good fruit will have red.
06:51 But they are in sacks now. Outside is brown. It’s one fruit still.
06:57 It’s a fruit. It’s still the pomegranate inside, it’s like seeds are all like pearls. Same fruit.
07:04 There are sacs inside to hold these pearls. Same fruit. The sacs are whitish or even yellowish.
07:13 Same fruit. So one fruit has different shades of colors and different textures and different content in one fruit. The pomegranate.
07:25 Therefore this fruit of the spirit is one fruit. There are not many fruits. It’s one fruit.
07:31 We must either have it or we don’t have it. We must have it. Why not have it? This Holy Spirit that God sent for me, for you to live like this.
07:44 That’s why he calls us. We are aliens on earth. We are aliens.
07:48 We are not of this earth. Why? Because the earth will not have this will not have love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. The fruit of the Spirit won’t be there because it’s fallen nature.
08:02 Man cannot have it because those who are not in Christ Jesus, the whole world is under the sway of Satan influence one way or another. People don’t realize it. Now don’t go around telling this to everybody who doesn’t has not known Jesus yet.
08:16 They’ll begin to get angry with you. I was myself under the sway of Satan. And if you had told me that I was under the sway of Satan at the time, of course I would get very upset with you.
08:25 And I used to be violent. Then the violence would have. I would have whacked you.
08:30 Simple. Therefore, brothers and sisters, be wise as serpents and gentle and terves. These are mysteries for you.
08:40 That the whole world is under the sway of Satan is a mystery for his Disciples for his followers. It’s not for you to go around blabbing around this thing. But you can use that to say, look, the world is under this mess because Satan controls it, not Jesus Christ.
08:56 Jesus Christ will come and control it. Jesus Christ has now taken power of Satan and power only. Satan has only those who give him this you come to a Christian who I refuse to give Satan power.
09:09 I say get out in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Satan has to go. Satan has no power over me.
09:15 But if I do not know the power of Jesus Christ. In the name of Jesus Christ, I cannot cast out the demonic powers of hatred. Spirit of hatred, evil spirit of hatred.
09:24 Get out of me in the name of Jesus Christ. It has to go. Because the name of Jesus Christ it has to obey.
09:31 In the name of Jesus Christ, I command the spirit of Diabetes. Spirit of Diabetes. Get out of me in the name of Jesus Christ.
09:37 Spirit of infirmities, that means sickness. Get out of me in the name of Jesus Christ and not to return. That’s what I have to pray now.
09:45 And I pray that the throat will heal and all this. But then there’s another law. What we sow, we will reap.
09:53 Now I pray this I get fed better. Now I’m speaking well, thank Jesus Christ of Nazareth. And then after that, when I have to go out, I try and wear a mask, but the masks are all ineffective.
10:06 And I will get the thing again. The law, what you sow will reap cannot be overcome. That will operate by itself.
10:15 But then in the meantime, God will give me strength to endure through, to see me through. That’s my faith, that’s my hope and we see through. And my family members are affected too, but they’re working on, they’re going on.
10:27 Why they believe in Jesus Christ. And in that hope and faith we do every day. We get up and do work every day.
10:34 Why God says there’s no work in the grave. That means, brothers and sisters, let’s do here whatever God tells us to do. Let’s do here.
10:43 Let’s not become weary. On doing good. Doing good is also generosity, being generous, kind.
10:49 Now you see, so the fruit is one fruit. So the various shades. Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.
11:04 Oh, if you keep looking at this every day before you do anything, before you about to do something, if you look at it, I must have this. Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I command my heart and mind to have the fruit of the spirit and the spirit of spirit, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity and Faithfulness, gentleness, self control. I begin to change now.
11:24 When I begin to change. The issue is this. Sometimes we misunderstand some words.
11:28 Self control is a critical thing. When you have complete self control because you have the power of Jesus Christ, you are in control. Remember this, you are in control.
11:38 You are actually totally in control. Whatever people are saying, your complete self control, you are not saying anything back. Your heart and mind is behaving, obeying your spirit man.
11:50 Your spirit man said no, you will not act. And many times because all the time when people have no self control, they put themselves in trouble. I used to put myself in trouble because no self control.
12:03 When I came to the Lord, he gave me self control. I can have self control. I can let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go.
12:13 Why? My Jesus Christ, the husband of my soul will take care of this. I do not want to soil my hands with this. I do not want to have vengeance.
12:23 Jesus said vengeance is his. God says almighty God, vengeance is mine. You do not do but what we do.
12:30 We love them. We love them. Self control to love them.
12:34 The self control is the last section. The last part of the fruit. Last shade of the fruit and last item in the fruit is the self control.
12:41 The first item, the fruit is love. I have self control to love even those who do not care, who are irritating me or whatever. I self control in the name of Jesus Christ.
12:53 Now one of the things I have to explain here is the gentleness story. Yesterday I told you about gentleness. Now I’ve got the world definition of gentleness.
13:01 People are mistaken because gentleness, we have been taught gentleness is something and it is not true and it’s not definitely the Bible definition. Don’t forget the emails brothers and sisters, in the emails if you ask the power of Christ daily people moderators it is in the grace of life.com graceoflife.com they’ll send you the emails now. The email will show all this.
13:26 Now definite world definition is this. World definition of gentleness is someone acts when they are soft and calm and sweet to other people. Soft and calm and sweet to other people.
13:40 This is the character of gentleness. It’s describing this way now. When Jesus Christ made the whip and chased everybody out of the temple and told it’s my father’s house, house of prayer, you fellas have made it in the den of thieves.
13:54 Was he soft and calm and sweet? No. So this definition is a false definition. Anyone refer it to the Bible in the Bible The Bible definition is this it is sensitive, a sensitive character, sensitive disposition and kindness of behavior.
14:13 Kindness of behavior. You know kind. When you’re behaving, you behave kindly.
14:18 Founded on strength and prompted by love. This is the true definition for the Bible. Gentleness.
14:27 Sensitive. You are sensitive to people’s needs, sensitive to issues around you, sensitive to what people are feeling, what people are suffering. You’re sensitive.
14:37 And your kindness of behavior. When you behave, you’re behaving kindly. Founded on what? Strength.
14:44 You’re founded on your strength. The kindness and gentle and kindness and sensitivity is founded on your strength and prompted by your love. By love.
14:53 By why God’s love is in us. And the supreme example of gentleness is the God of Israel. God of Israel.
15:02 Remember, brothers and sisters, not all Israel is of God. The Bible is clear. Not all Israel is of God means.
15:09 Therefore, when you see a Jew doing some rubbish, even people killing each other, say something. They’re killing people and all war, whatever. Remember, not all Israel is of God.
15:20 So do not think that this God’s Israel is killing all these people. It’s not God’s Israel. They are wicked people doing things also.
15:27 Now in Isaiah 40:11 it says the God of Israel, he gently leads those that are young. He leads us. He leads those that are young.
15:41 He cares for the mother with a suckling baby. This the gentleness. Almighty God’s gentleness.
15:49 This the sensitivity, sensitive and kindness of behavior. Founded of strength and prompted by love. This is a gentleness, brothers and sisters.
15:57 Do not be f by the sweet tenting and all the story they told us. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray Amen.

00:01 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ daily 8th of September titled Work of God, take my yoke. Work of God, take my yoke. Of course, take my yoke.
00:16 Jesus is saying today I’m reading first from the aman remind ourselves from yesterday I’m reading from the Catholic Bible, John 6:29. Jesus answered them, this is the work of God that you believe in him whom he has sent. We are supposed to believe in Christ.
00:34 We believe in Christ, God, Father, our Father sent his Son, only begotten son and it all is asking us to believe in him, cleave to him, cling to him, trust in him. That is the work of God. Now does that mean that we don’t do anything else? Suppose somebody wants you to clean the toilet in the church or rearrange the chest, of course we do that.
00:53 But primary one, we must be doing this, believing in Christ, believing in Christ, brothers and sisters, yes, we have to do. We have to take care of the daily needs and all. But if we just do that, taking care of the daily needs, washing the place, cleaning the place and planning tracks out or whatever and then we don’t do this.
01:14 That is why there’s another word which says work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. What is happening to you? Your soul won’t change, your heart won’t change, your mind won’t change. And then we still suffer.
01:26 There are a lot of people doing this work. I’ve come across deacons who are suffering and their homes are in a mess, their family in a wreck. Deacons, how is this possible? Because they do not know this, that the work of God starts with believing in Jesus Christ and everything clinging on to him.
01:44 Now brothers and sisters, I’m now reading from the King James version, Matthew 11:28 30, Matthew 11:28 30 which says this, Come unto me. Jesus saying this is very, very. If you take time to meditate on this, your soul will be lifted right now.
02:06 Your spirit will be lifted right now. Just look at this. Come unto me all ye who labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest.
02:17 I will give you rest. This is one of the things that impressed my soul. I could sense it in my soul when I first came to the Lord.
02:25 Come unto me, Jesus is saying, and I will give you rest. Come unto me who labour heavy you labour and a heavy laden burden, completely burdened and I will give you rest. Oh, that kept me going after I came to the Lord.
02:42 Come unto me. And I knew and I went into him. I had peace Unbelievable peace.
02:47 That is why this is a very important scripture. Come unto me all you who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and you shall find rest unto your souls.
03:08 30 for my yoke is easy and my burden is light. My yoke is easy and my burden is light. I’ll repeat this.
03:18 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn of me. Jesus is saying to you, to you, to me, learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and ye shall find rest unto your souls. So to find rest unto our souls, we must be meek and lowly in the heart.
03:28 I am meek and lowly in the heart. Now some translations will tell you he is gentle and lowly in heart. Remember, some people have mistaken because gentle under the modern context it means completely different than what it meant when they translated it at that time.
04:02 Can you imagine the incident when Jesus went to the temple and everybody was abusing and making money by the millions. You know that millions were being translated there in modern day calculation, modern day value, millions of dollars being transacted there. And he said, you this is my father’s house, a house of prayer, but you have made it into a den of thieves, into a cave of thieves.
04:29 And he made a whip and whipped, started weeping, running, everybody running, whipping, turning tables, chaos. Pandemonium was going on. Now how is that going to settle? If we say he is gentle and we look at the word gentle as if we understand gentleness, like now nowadays.
04:48 Gentleness is a wrong translation to what it was meant. He was not a coward. Jesus Christ is never a coward.
04:53 Jesus Christ is the King of kings and Lord of lords. He, he will not tolerate. Nonsense, nonsense, you know, Father’s house of prayer made into a den of thieves.
05:05 So therefore, do not be mistaken when people preach be gentle, be gentle. They are talking about today’s understanding of gentle. What of them? You quote this.
05:13 What did Jesus do when they were doing rubbish in the house of prayer? He made a weapon start of weeping. So therefore you put aside, he said meek and lowly in heart. That is why this is for people who are burdened and confused and lost and all that.
05:29 But for those like Pharisees who want to hang on to their false beliefs and want to burden the people and all, Jesus will stand there and tell them truthfully. You see, you brood of vipers, you snakes, you call them, those who are burdening the souls to do this and that. And Everything else there are a lot of religious Christianity is burdening people do this, do that.
05:51 No, he has done it for us. Now we receive it in faith and first have rest in our souls. Now I am reading from the amplified the next before we go and elaborate.
06:01 Second Corinthians 3:18, amplified. And all of us as with unveiled face because we continue to behold in the Word of God. Remember we have addressed this in the past.
06:15 Beholding the Word of God, looking at the Word of God as in a mirror the glory of the Lord. Looking at the Word of God and thinking of the glory of the Lord. He rose again.
06:25 He died and rose again. He seated at the right hand side of Father God. We are inside him.
06:30 I am inside him and He Christ is in me. That’s the glory of God. And the glory of Christ is in my body.
06:37 Right now you begin to continue and then you begin to look at it and looking at the glory of the Almighty God. And I’m inside Him. Of course I’m not going to bother anymore about anything that is pressuring me.
06:47 I’m not going to bother. Believed by my heart and my mind was telling my stories and making me confused and making no more, no more, no more. And then he says and I constantly.
07:03 Because we are doing that, looking at the Word of God, meditating on the glory and word of God are constantly being transfigured into his, his very own image. We are being transferred into his own image and we are being changing in ever increasing splendor and from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
07:24 How to change ourselves we cannot, but His Word will change us if we do this, if we put the word of God for that particular issue. We meditate and think about it and think about the glory in Jesus Christ said this, he said this, he did this, he did that. Oh, and then when you begin to do this, we are being changed from inside without even realizing.
07:44 Now we’re coming back. Today I’m dealing with the work of God. Work of God first is believing in the One whom He sent.
07:54 And if we believe means we will do what he tells us to do. Take my yoke upon you and learn of me. For I am meek and lowly in heart and you shall find rest unto your soul.
08:07 So when you are disturbed, when you are finding difficulties, some issue going on, you have to take your yoke. For instance, you are going for a job interview and then you are desperate for the job. You are desperate, you are desperate.
08:23 And when you go for the interview, your desperation, the spirit of desperation will be touching the the interviewers. And they will not find you comfortable in their hearts, in their spirit. Their spirit be affected because you are desperate.
08:40 But if you go with another spirit, first spirit is, love your neighbor as your spirit. Love your neighbor as yourself. You’re going and say, lord, I’m going for this job.
08:51 I want to do the best there. I want to care for these people. I want to perform here.
08:51 I want to make sure that this company, if this is your will, I’ll get this job. And I’m not desperate because my desperation no more. Because you care for me, you provide for me.
09:07 My provider is you. So I’m not looking at this job as my provider. I’m going there.
09:12 Yes, Lord, I’m having a lot of pressures, but I know you see me through. You will never leave me or forsake me. I will never beg bread.
09:21 Something will happen here. Something will happen. Whether this job or next job, something you’ll provide for me.
09:26 You have always provided for me. I give thanks in all things that you have commanded me. When I’m doing this, I’m beholding the Word.
09:33 You have always. I’ll give thanks in everything. I’ll rejoice and rejoice and give thanks in everything, good or bad.
09:38 I’ll rejoice and give thanks because my heart only thinks it’s bad. Everything will work for my good, because that’s yous word. All things will work for my good, for those who love God.
09:53 Make me love God. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to love youe, Lord. And to love youe means to keep youp commandments.
10:01 And I want to keep youp commandments, Lord, in the name of Jesus Christ, make me keep youp commandments. And you begin to meditate and talk like this. You can even talk audibly.
10:09 It is very good. What will happen? Change inside. You’re going there to settle this company, to perform for them, to care for this company, to produce well for this company.
10:13 You’re going there because love your neighbor as yourself. That spirit will go across and they will know, hey, I need this person. Jesus can go and put it there, you know, in their heart now.
10:30 But here he said, take my yoke. Take my yoke now. When I was 7 years old, 7 and 8 years old, I think maybe 7, maybe 6, 7, 8, around there for 12 years, I was in India.
10:46 My father sent us out to India, and I was there. And I. In the school holidays, I’ll go to the village, my grandmother there. And I used to take care of cows.
10:58 So when I take care of cows. So I understand this yoke business to a point. As I said, if you think you know something you do not know as you ought to know as yet.
11:07 So even this to a point only I understand. So I’ll say what I understand. I do not know the full picture.
11:12 I’ll tell you what I understand now. Cows yoke. Yoke is a heavy block of wood.
11:18 You know, wood. And this wood has got a concave depression under it. 2.
11:27 2 of it. 2 concave depressions under it means little cutting in the wood. So they can put the piece of wood on the two cows neck.
11:36 On the neck of the two cows. So there’s a little depression there, little hole. I think you put it there.
11:43 And this is solid. Now when we are doing this, I have also written cows. I have written bullock cards.
11:50 So when we do this, one of the problems is you may not be able to match the size of the cows. When you are putting this thing. May not be able to match because your herd, you may not have perfectly matched.
12:03 Or somebody has taken two matching cows and gone ridden another bullock cart. And now you want to ride this bullock cart. You have one big cow and one small cow.
12:13 So now when that happens, what happens? The big cow can pull you here, there, everywhere. Because it’s big. And the small cow actually is not carrying any weight out of that.
12:24 The yoke is just resting there. Only he is not putting pressure on the neck of the small cow. Why? Because the big cow is big.
12:33 Huge, bigger than taller. So now imagine this. I have a God.
12:40 His name is Son of God. His name is Jesus Christ of Nazareth. He is almighty God.
12:46 He is telling me, come, son, take my yoke now. Can he make him take my yoke now in the normal bullock cart? Of course, because we ride, we control the big cow. Otherwise the bullet will just go off anywhere.
13:01 We control the thing with the ropes attached to the noses. Isn’t it so controlled now? But here, what’s happened? My yoke. I am meek and lowly in heart.
13:12 Come, come. I am lowly in heart. I care for you.
13:15 I love you. I love you. I am love.
13:19 God is love. Jesus Christ is love. I love you.
13:22 Come, son, take my yoke upon you and learn of me. Not just take my yoke upon you, you learn of me. For I am meek and lowly in heart.
13:32 There are a lot of Christians full of pride, you know. And I know this. They talk as if they know so much and then they actually talking wrong.
13:40 Misunderstanding of scriptures of God. Talk, talk, talk, talk. They’re very quick to hear, slow to speak.
13:45 Change any one of you hearing this and you are convicted with this statement. Change, brother, change, sister. The more you talk, the devil is going to take the words and use it against you.
13:52 The more you talk and the more you talk. You already say, quick to hear, slow to speak. The more we talk.
14:01 We are talking nonsense. When we talk, we talk. Try and talk the word of God, but talk with love.
14:07 If you don’t have that, nothing to say. I am meek and lowly in heart. He slowly run.
14:13 And he said, take my yoke. Can you imagine? He’s almighty God, completely, immensely, infinitely big. He’s got a yoke on him.
14:23 He says, and he says, come, let me. You come and take. And he says, my yoke is easy.
14:30 My yoke is easy. Really. I know because I’ve seen this cows, the small cow.
14:36 Nothing, carrying, no carrying anything anymore. No weight. And my burden is light.
14:42 Actually, you get to God, there is really no burden. You begin to think of His Word, meditate on His Word. And you think, Lord, I will love my neighbor as myself.
14:53 When I go to the interview, I will think, I will prepare like this. You are going there with the spirit. Brothers and sisters, when you begin to meditate on these words of God, peace will come upon you.
15:05 Peace will come upon you. Peace. Friends, today is a wonderful day.
15:11 Just knowing this and practicing these, and thinking about this, and meditating about this, and meditating about this will give you long, long growth in the Lord. Beautiful Christ. Beautiful Lord.
15:26 Beautiful God, my God, the husband of my soul. Lord, I want to keep my soul as a chaste virgin for you, Lord. Make it a chaste virgin, Lord.
15:37 Make it, Lord. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind, my soul to be chaste virgin to Christ with no blemish, no nothing. Every time thinking of him.
15:48 Every time singing songs to him. Every time believing in him, believing in him. Every time knowing he is coming back.
15:55 Every time thinking about this. That my husband and my soul will come and save me from this miserable earth. In Jesus name I pray.

AI-generated transcript below — please excuse any errors
00:01 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth, brothers and sisters. Power of Christ daily 7th of September title sincerely wrong. Sincerely wrong in the work of God. Sincerely wrong in the work of God.
00:14 Before we go into the subject, yesterday I made an error and said yesterday was 7th of September actually, all kinds of things going on. Amen, brothers. Sorry about that now.
00:27 Sincerely wrong in the work of God. You know, this thing when we were first born again, or first we accepted Jesus Christ. When I first accepted Jesus Christ, of course there’s an eagerness inside our spirit, inside my spirit, inside my heart to do work for God.
00:45 The work of God. Work for God, you know, and this is what every one of you would have felt when you felt Jesus settled you could peace, peace healed you or something, done something, and you sensed it, you realized it, and you accepted Jesus as your Lord and master. And there’s a peace that come upon you, a peace that’s come upon you.
01:06 And you couldn’t understand that peace. But you treasured the peace. You needed the peace.
01:10 You really, after settling down in that, in a few days, after a couple of weeks, you want to do something. You want to do something for God. And sadly, sadly, not a single church, not a single pastor, not a single servant.
01:27 And they will come and they’ll claim to be apostles or prophets and not so many books I read and so many preachings I’ve heard in the cassette tapes and all I never came across what is the real work of God. Only a couple of years later, there was a stress in my soul. Because what they will tell you many times is, okay, come and arrange the chairs in the church or something, or even wash the toilets.
01:57 And we were quite happy. Why? Because we felt good. Our human nature.
02:03 If something wants to do something good because why that’s nature, that somebody has done something good for you. God has done something good for you. Even a human being has done something good for you.
02:12 You want to return that thing. You want to do something, you want to do something for them, that’s normal. But what has happened is people may be sincere, but they are sincerely wrong.
02:23 Because the only truth is God’s word. So sincerely wrong. So they tell you, okay, you are now born again.
02:29 Now declare to people. That’s very good, you declare to people, but that is not the work of God. The work of God will come to that the scriptures, later.
02:38 That is why I always say, whenever somebody tells you, including me, check for the scriptures. Therefore, please, brothers and sisters, ask for the scriptures, ask for the email. And every time I say something, there will be a Scripture supporting that without scripture support, do not follow.
02:58 Because we are human beings, we make errors. So that is why every day, whenever I do the power of Christ daily, I will back it up with scriptures. If not, I will not speak authoritatively on that.
03:11 I may say this is my opinion or my feeling, or this is what I’ve done, or this is what I did, or somebody said this, I may say that. But when I say God said it, means this is it. This is what we supposed to do.
03:23 There must be scripture backing. No going by just feelings now. So we’ll go and give track, okay, this is your work.
03:32 Go and give track or usher. Make sure your cars are coming and parked properly or whatever, all that. And after a while, the human nature when we begin to do this, particularly we do something that others don’t want to do, like wash toilet or whatever, and we feel good.
03:46 Wash toilet and we feel good. We are doing for God. We are doing for God.
03:48 We are doing for God. And then there are others who will come and ask for money or something, and we give them the money. That time we may not hardly have ourselves, but we give because we feel we are doing the work of God.
04:02 And that’s when the devil also sends people to steal money from you. And you end up giving money to wrong people who are pretending to volunteerize. So all this will take place.
04:13 Now, one of the questions you have to ask is anybody, any church you are attending to or pastors or whatever, you have to ask this question, what is the work of God? And if they do not know, they may be sincere. If they do not know, then you know they do not know. You have to tell them this.
04:36 And at the same time you have to question yourself whether you will actually grow, whether you grow in the Lord. Because if you do not know this, that’s very hard to grow. Now, in John 6:29, it’s very clear.
04:49 Today I’m reading from several translations. Why? First, I’m reading from the Calic translation. I’m reading from the easy reader.
04:56 After that, and then amplified, because it’s an important issue. Now, the first one, John 6:29 in the Catholic translation, says Jesus answered them because people asked them, now that we are saved, now what we do, what we do? We want to do the work of God. We want to do the work of God.
05:13 They are asking in 28, they are asking, we want to do the work of God. What is the work of God? What is the work of God? And Jesus Christ answered them in 29, this is the work of God that you believe in him whom he has sent. You believe in him whom he has sent.
05:31 This is the work of God. Believe in him whom he has sent. Whom did God send? Jesus Christ.
05:38 Believing in Jesus Christ. Now, easy read translation, same thing. They were asking, what do we do? We want to do the work of God.
05:44 We want to do the work of God. We want to do the work of God. What do we do? They are asking Jesus Christ, remember? And Jesus answered them in the easy read.
05:55 The work God wants you to do is this to believe in the One he sent. The work God wants you to do is this to believe in the One he sent. Now take an amplified version because this gives the shades of meanings that was originally written in the Greek amplified.
06:23 Jesus replied, of course. They ask him, what is the work of God? We want to do the work of God. What is the work of God? In 29 he replies, this is the work, the service that God asks of you.
06:36 This is the work, the service that God asks of you. That you believe in the One whom He has sent. That you cleave to his.
06:47 Him. Trust in Him. Rely on him and have faith in his messenger.
06:55 Rely on the faith and faith in the messenger. You declare to Jesus Christ. Trusting in Jesus Christ.
07:01 Relying on Jesus Christ. And faith in Jesus Christ is what actually is the work of God. This is, of course, human nature.
07:09 Begin to understand. Confusing for us. Why? Because it’s a spiritual thing.
07:15 That is why God said, your ways are not my ways. Lean not on your own understanding. His understanding is far, far, far higher.
07:24 Infinitely higher. So when he says, this is the work of God, we better take it for gospel truth. That is the work of God.
07:30 And after all, it’s still the gospel. Now, the work of God is to believe in Jesus Christ, to trust in him, to cling on to him, to rely on him, to have faith in him, to cleave to Him. Cleave to Him.
07:42 Why? He is the husband of our soul. So cleave to him. Husband of our flesh, wife of our flesh.
07:47 Husband and wife. Cleave in the flesh. Doesn’t cleave in the Spirit.
07:51 Now my human understanding will be, must do physical work. Must do something. Must physically must do something.
07:59 Here God is saying, I am Spirit. The work of God is believing in God. The work of God is believing in Jesus Christ.
08:06 Whom, Father, God has sent. Father, Father, Father. God has sent Father.
08:09 God has sent his only Begotten Son. Why is God’s only begotten Son? Because the Word of God was in God. Was in God.
08:22 Is in God, right? Word of God was in God. So the word of God came out of God. The Word of God came out of God and took the form of a man.
08:32 Took the form of a man. Now, since the Word of God came out of God, it was begotten out of God and became the form of a man. And it became his name is Immanuel.
08:43 God with us. Jesus Christ. What a wonderful thing.
08:49 Now, so God is spirit. His work is in spirit. Now, what is the work of God? Believing in him.
08:57 Now, if you believe in Jesus Christ, truly you will love him. You will love him. If you believe in Jesus Christ, you will love him.
09:07 Now if you love him. Now, a lot of people telling me, no, I love God, I love Jesus. I used to listen to all these, I love God, I love him, I love Jesus and all.
09:18 And then they’ll be doing some ridiculous things, sad things. I love Jesus. But you know what love is? True Love is John 5:3:1 John 5:3.
09:33 In Amplified version, it says this for the true love of God. Is this for the true love of God Is this. That we do his commands, keep his ordinances and mindful of his precepts and teachings, not just think our own ways.
09:51 His precepts, the concepts, what he’s telling us and his teachings. Keeping his commandments means keep this, the love of God. If you truly love God, God said, my true love for me is this.
10:04 You love me truly means you keep my commandments. Must you do my commandments. Doer of the Word, do my commandments, Keep his ordinances.
10:12 Keep my ordinances. Be mindful of my teaching and my precepts. And these orders of his are not irksome, burdensome, oppressive or grievous.
10:23 Grievous. They are not hard grieving or hard grieving. And do.
10:28 He said, these orders, these commands I give you are not burdensome, are not oppressive, doesn’t oppress you. It actually liberates us. It sets us free because we got power in Christ and we are set free.
10:40 And it is not grievous. Now, that is why the test that you have to ask wherever, whichever church you are in, whichever congregation you are in now, remember, when you ask them the test, when you are leaders, you ask the leaders, the servants, apostles, or whatever they call themselves, pastors, they can call anything they want. Sometimes human nature, there are a lot of false prophets and false prophets and apostles pretending to be servants of God.
11:11 So we have seen this. I’ve seen this. Enough of this.
11:14 So now you have to ask this question. If you are sincere. Now first, before that, what is the highest commandment? You have to ask this.
11:25 If you ask somebody, a Christian who claims to be a Christian, who says Christian. Now remember, when you ask this question and they answer wrongly, they may be sincere, but sincerely wrong. They may not be able to cheat you.
11:38 They may not. I better make it clear. They may not be wicked, they may not be bad, they may not be misleading you, but that’s all they know.
11:49 So you feel sorry for them and open their eyes to these scriptures. Quote the scriptures, but before that you learn. You read the scriptures this way, that way.
11:59 Better to read the whole of book of John 6, chapter 6. You better read the whole thing and get a bigger precept concept. We only got 15 minutes here to resolve things.
12:10 Now when you ask this question, when they answer wrongly or didn’t want to answer, then you’re also looking in the spirit if they’re angry with you for asking this question. But humble yourself and ask. When you ask the question, ask in humbleness.
12:23 What brothers and sisters? Ask in humbleness, not ask I know, I know type you know, I know. Now I prove to you, I know more than you. I am in this church and you are so deacon or whatever.
12:34 So I’ll ask this question to test you. You do all that. It’s sin.
12:38 Humble yourself. You’re asking to teach them or asking for your own self to know whether what they are teaching is correct or not, so that you can work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. So the question is first, what is the highest commandment of God? Many struggle to answer that simple question.
13:00 You know sad. The highest commandment of God is love God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength. Many Christians struggle.
13:09 Then we ask them, what is the second highest commandment of God? The second highest commandment of God. Many will be struggling, struggling, struggling. But some who answered may answer, love your neighbor as yourself.
13:25 Okay, we can accept that because that’s what Jesus said. And many do not even know this. But more importantly, if you are a Christian, a follower of Christ, your second higher commandment is actually love one another as I have loved you.
13:43 Jesus says, I give you a new command. Love one another as I have loved you. And then of course, the rest of the world, you love your neighbour as yourself.
13:53 Now these three people will be struggling. Now if you want to ask what is the work of God? 99.9% won’t know.
14:02 They’ll tell you. Declare the gospel, declare the gospel, will go and tract. You know, I did all this.
14:08 I’LL go and tract because they told me to do that. They told me to do physical things. And I led in my own heart.
14:14 Fallen nature heart and doing work. It seems finally God opened my eyes to say, this is all wrong. First you believe in the One whom He sent.
14:23 Believe in Jesus Christ of Nazareth. So whatever Jesus says, if the wall is black, it is black. That’s it for me.
14:31 And then when you’re believing in the One whom He sent, believing in Jesus Christ, trusting in him, cleaning to him in the spirit, you’re doing work. You’re doing work. Because 28 people ask, what work shall we do now? What is the work of God we want to do? We want to do? This is the work of God.
14:46 Jesus replied, believe in the One whom He sent. Cleave to Him. Trust him.
14:50 Rely on Him. Have faith in Him. Faith in his faith.
14:55 Oh, wonderful day, brothers and sisters. And then to love God means to willing the One. Later God teach me willing to give his commandment.
15:05 He will settle you. He will make you work. He will make you do this.
15:08 Willing to keep his commandments. Willing. You know, because our heart, my heart was so terrible.
15:14 Not willing to keep his commandments. No, no. Not wanting to do his commandment.
15:18 But finally in my heart, I knew I have to willing My spirit man must rise up and make my heart willing. I am willing, Lord, because the world cannot settle me. Only you.
15:28 Once you begin to be willing, that so can be commanded. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to be willing to obey God in all things, to obey Jesus Christ in all things. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command my heart and mind to obey, to cleave to Jesus Christ, to trust in Jesus Christ, to rel on Jesus Christ, to have faith in the faith of Jesus Christ.
15:31 In the name of Jesus Christ, I command this again and again and again until it becomes natural, the supernatural become natural. Brothers and sisters, today I pray this for all of us. Amen.
