Speaker 1: Are you happy to be in the house of the Lord?
Speaker 1: Can you appreciate this beautiful girl here?
Speaker 1: They have done a good job, they have been blessed the Lord, the guys here we appreciate you, god bless you for the wonderful.
Speaker 1: And, of course, where are the?
Speaker 1: What is that they are called?
Speaker 1: Who?
Speaker 1: The media team?
Speaker 1: Yes, can you appreciate them?
Speaker 1: And, of course, our camera guys.
Speaker 1: And appreciating the guys online.
Speaker 1: We are glad that you are joining us today so that you can share the word of God together, and I'm privileged this evening to share the word of God with us and to say, oh God, thank you for His goodness and His masses that are new every morning.
Speaker 1: And, as usual, you cannot ever forget to thank the fathers of this house, our father, pastor Ambrose, and the associate pastor, pastor Reverend Simon Mwangi, and we thank God that it is always a joy that they allow us to be in the house of the Lord and to just worship Him, and the entire leadership of the pastors and deconsibued, because they are the ones that help us to share the word of God each and every time we come into the house of the Lord.
Speaker 1: And I want to thank God for His goodness and, as I was thinking about this service.
Speaker 1: One of the things that the Lord was reminding me is that even in this empowered breakthrough, there must be a heart that is willing to receive.
Speaker 1: There must be a heart that is willing to have the Lord break through so that we can be able to do what the Papas says us to do.
Speaker 1: And the scripture that the Lord was reminding me is that usually our hearts are very weakened and deceitful, and so sometimes we do not allow God to work in our lives.
Speaker 1: And when I was thinking about this, I've been studying this character of Joseph, and as I was thinking about a weakened heart or a heart that is not receptive to what God was to teach, I was thinking of the character of Joseph that was really so resilient and I was telling God that is.
Speaker 1: I would really admire and love to have that character of Joseph.
Speaker 1: And I want to give a summary, because I was actually thinking through the genesis of that 99, genesis 49, genesis 41, 42, 43 about Joseph.
Speaker 1: And Joseph is sold as a slave to Potipa, a pharaoh's officer and commander of the guard.
Speaker 1: Despite being a slave, joseph becomes very successful because God is with him.
Speaker 1: Potipha puts Joseph in charge of his house and possessions and God blesses Potipha's house accordingly.
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, potipha's wife tries to seduce Joseph, but he refuses to betray his master.
Speaker 1: In chapter 40, joseph interprets the dreams of two of pharaoh's servants, the cabera and the baker, while he is in prison.
Speaker 1: And in chapter 41, pharaoh has a dream that no one can interpret, and the cabera remembers Joseph's ability to interpret dreams.
Speaker 1: Joseph is brought before pharaoh and interprets the dream as a one of seven years of plenty, followed by seven years of famine.
Speaker 1: Pharaoh is impressed and puts Joseph in charge of the entire land of Egypt.
Speaker 1: In chapter 42, joseph's brothers come to Egypt to buy grain during the famine, and Joseph recognizes them but does not reveal his identity.
Speaker 1: He accuses them of being spies and demands that they bring their youngest brother, benjamin, to Egypt.
Speaker 1: In chapter 43, joseph's brothers return to Egypt with Benjamin and Joseph reveals his identity to them.
Speaker 1: They are reconciled and Joseph sends them back to Canaan with the food and gives for their father, jacob.
Speaker 1: And so, as the Lord was reminding me of this capturing, kindly read all those chapters together, because this month our character is Joseph and we are trying to run the character of Joseph so that we can be able to have an empowered breakthrough, as Joseph was and one of the things that I have said again in Jeremiah media.
Speaker 1: Could you give us Jeremiah chapter 17, verse 9 to 10.
Speaker 1: I want us to talk about the heart, because the Bible talks of our heart being very deceitful, and it is only our heart that cannot allow us to access the breakthroughs that God would be wanting us to access.
Speaker 1: So, jeremiah 17, verse 9, the heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure.
Speaker 1: How can I understand it?
Speaker 1: The Lord search the heart and examine the mind.
Speaker 1: Abu, give me in New King James Version, kindly, new King James Version.
Speaker 1: Yes, the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked.
Speaker 1: Who can know it?
Speaker 1: The Lord search the heart.
Speaker 1: I test the mind even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.
Speaker 1: So that is the heart of a man.
Speaker 1: And as I was thinking of empowered breakthrough, the Lord was reminding my heart that I need a heart that is trusting, I need a heart that is patient, I need a heart that is faithful and I need a heart that is forgiving.
Speaker 1: We have said a heart that has to get empowered.
Speaker 1: A breakthrough must have trust, must have patience, must be faithful, must be forgiving.
Speaker 1: And so with this heart.
Speaker 1: When we get a heart that has to get a breakthrough, we should be able to know this is a heart that is not deceitful and that is not wicked.
Speaker 1: And as I was thinking through what that means, it means, if we talk of a trusting heart, of a heart that can be trusted, as the Lord was reminding me of Proverbs, chapter 3, media Proverbs, chapter 3, verse 5 to 6.
Speaker 1: Proverbs trust in the Lord with all your heart and lead, not on your own understanding, in all your ways, acknowledge him and he shall direct your paths.
Speaker 1: Praise God In Jeremiah 29, 11.
Speaker 1: It's a very popular scripture that we know about.
Speaker 1: Jeremiah 29, 11 for I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a hope, a future and a hope.
Speaker 1: That is a heart that is believing, that is a heart that is not wicked, that is a heart that is trusting in God, just like Joseph was.
Speaker 1: You know he was not bitter when he was.
Speaker 1: He was at Potiphar's house and you know what he went through when Potiphar, you know, really wanted to sleep with this young, handsome man, young man.
Speaker 1: But then he I mean through all what he went through and running away and you know he was.
Speaker 1: He was said like he is the one who wanted to rape Potiphar's wife and that was a lie.
Speaker 1: But I'm imagining even when there was famine, and in the country for seven years, because that's the dream that brought him out of of the prison, and he was meant, you know, in charge of everything or as a governor of that nation.
Speaker 1: And I believe, even when Potiphar came to look, because if it, I mean the whole nation was hungry, it did not spare even Potiphar, potiphar's wife, but then Hakulipisha, kisa, he still gave that which was required.
Speaker 1: So for me it is going to trust, even in those difficult moments, that you do not get grudges over things, even in the darkest pits, always trusting the Lord that is able to get out you out of the issues that you are in.
Speaker 1: One Corinthians, chapter 1, verse 18, for the message of the cross is usually foolishness to those who are perishing, but to those who are being saved, it is the power of God.
Speaker 1: You know it is very easy as believers not to get this message of trusting.
Speaker 1: You know, trusting God, because I'm imagining even a season that we are in at the moment.
Speaker 1: We know, even in our economy.
Speaker 1: As a nation it is not very easy, but as a person you can choose either to trust in God in that tough economic times or you can decide not to trust in God and then you continue in your challenges.
Speaker 1: It may not change quickly, but of course we are not here because God works like this.
Speaker 1: God remains God.
Speaker 1: When we think of the story of Abraham, when he was promised a child, it took him years before he got the promise that he was given.
Speaker 1: So I'm imagining sometimes we give like we are there telling God, we are giving him like an automotor.
Speaker 1: God, if you are not helping me in this, I'm done with you.
Speaker 1: You know, it is because this heart again we started by saying the heart can really be wicked and it can be very deceitful.
Speaker 1: It is only God who knows it.
Speaker 1: And so, even as we sit here, it is only God who can know.
Speaker 1: Is this woman or man seated here trusting in God?
Speaker 1: Even in their difficult circumstances?
Speaker 1: God can be able to tell whether your heart is really trusting God.
Speaker 1: And what I can tell you, my dear sister, my dear brother, the only thing that you can do for yourself, it is to trust God and to tell him even in those difficult circumstances.
Speaker 1: Like Joseph, I want to trust you because you are faithful God and when we trust the God, he breaks through for us.
Speaker 1: You know, a senior pastor has been helping us to understand what it means to have a empowered breakthrough.
Speaker 1: It is the Lord breaking through for us.
Speaker 1: When you trust in God those circumstances that you think they are too hard, when you trust in this God, just like Joseph trusted and God broke through for him.
Speaker 1: This is the way God will break through for you.
Speaker 1: So put your total trust in the Lord and that is why I'm saying that sometimes it looks foolish to a believer like you or like me, because sometimes we are trusting.
Speaker 1: This is just a journey of faith.
Speaker 1: We should know the life we are living as believers.
Speaker 1: It's a journey of faith and, as Pastor Ambrose would put it, that the faith is just that pool of water.
Speaker 1: But now, when we begin drawing from that pool of water or like beginning to whatever, that is what is called believing and having the word.
Speaker 1: You know the word of God working us, so beloved of the Lord.
Speaker 1: As we sit here, let us know that having a trusty, full heart, having a trust in the Lord, it is the only way that God can be able to break through your situations.
Speaker 1: But if you choose to remain, if I choose to remain, not trusting in God, then he has no way, because my faith is not a faith that is believing.
Speaker 1: And secondly, it is patience.
Speaker 1: In Romans, chapter 12, verse 12, media, could you kindly give us Romans, chapter 12, verse 12.
Speaker 1: Romans 12 12.
Speaker 1: Rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steady, firstly in prayer.
Speaker 1: It will give me in an IV, kindly 12, 12.
Speaker 1: Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
Speaker 1: And Philippians, chapter 4, verse 6 to 7.
Speaker 1: Philippians, chapter 4, verse 6 to 7 do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving present, present your request to God.
Speaker 1: Yes, we are saying if you have to have patience, it is being able to tolerate every delay or any problem or any suffering or anything, any state of anxiety that may come in your way, something that is annoying to you, and you are able to be to stand and be patient, go through the process of that difficult situation, just like Joseph.
Speaker 1: He allowed the situation that he was going through, the challenges that he was going through, he allowed the God of this, god of faith to take him through the process of keeping the challenges alive and, even in that prison, just allowing those challenges to come and not being annoyed, not being feeling so bad that the God he has trusted, he has brought him there and he does not know how to get out of it.
Speaker 1: This is the patience we are talking about, even when, you know, sometimes we can go through difficult situations and there is just being for us.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it can be complaining and mumbling and very disengranted in our hearts because, as we began by saying, the heart of men is weakened and deceitful.
Speaker 1: That is the heart.
Speaker 1: And so when we are disengranted, when we are complaining, when we are mumbling, when we are saying difficult thing, we cannot be patient with the Lord.
Speaker 1: You know, because of what we are going through and we are gambling and we are saying all sorts of things, we should know that we are not allowing God to break through for us, but, as if you were, if you want God to break through for you, you have to be patient in this life.
Speaker 1: If you have that heart we have talked about, tell God to give you a heart that can be patient in every situation, whether you come through difficult situations, if there are your children that are giving you difficulties and you are finding it very difficult and you are thinking God have been praying for them, they are not changing.
Speaker 1: You don't have that patience.
Speaker 1: If it is your parents that you are thinking you are not in good terms with them and you are trying to talk to them, they cannot understand you and it is taking too long for them to be able to accept you or to just allow you to be a person in their lives, and it is taking too long for them to understand you.
Speaker 1: You have to continue being patient.
Speaker 1: You can imagine the patience that Joseph has had to familiar.
Speaker 1: He did not know he can come out of that prison, but because he knew God had made a promise to him, he kept being hopeful.
Speaker 1: And so we normally say you can only afford to be anxious if you can be able to change anything.
Speaker 1: But I know you can never be able to change anything, any difficulty that you are going through, if it is not God changing for you, and so what you can afford to do in those moments is to be in a place of prayer.
Speaker 1: But I ask you if you were not to be anxious but to tell God I want to remain in a place of prayer.
Speaker 1: And as I am speaking this message, I am also speaking to myself, because the easiest thing is when we are in circumstances that are difficult, when the finances are not coming the way I need, and the Lord cannot fasten that because he has his own reason.
Speaker 1: That's why he is not fastening that process for me to get the finances I need.
Speaker 1: He has his own reason.
Speaker 1: That's why he is not meeting that challenge the way I really wanted to meet very quickly, because for us, we wanted to meet like this, in real.
Speaker 1: But God, because we are in this process, he is making us for his own reason, because he knows where he is taking us.
Speaker 1: We have to allow him, and so forth.
Speaker 1: The best thing we can do is to be in our cross-sets, praying, trusting God, not being anxious, but to just pray to the Lord and telling Him.
Speaker 1: Give me that patience, lord, it is becoming too tough.
Speaker 1: Give me that perseverance you know, to remain in the place of prayer even when circumstances are difficult.
Speaker 1: You know, sometimes and that is why I'm also saying the message of the cross remains.
Speaker 1: It looks like foolishness to the people of the world, because sometimes people look at you and say you would have come up to trust God.
Speaker 1: So you too will bribe and get you away.
Speaker 1: You know, like if your passport is not coming so you have to apply it is taking too long the easiest way is just bribe and get that, whatever.
Speaker 1: That is what someone will tell you.
Speaker 1: If your visa is not coming through or if you are not getting this job now, you know it is your 300,000, so you go and borrow alone or do something and pay for that job.
Speaker 1: You get the job.
Speaker 1: We are lacking patience and you know you didn't pray, you didn't get a break.
Speaker 1: You are not patient to follow the process.
Speaker 1: Wherever you may be now, the Lord is not impressed.
Speaker 1: So we have to follow the process.
Speaker 1: I'm imagining when, you know, at the time of the presence.
Speaker 1: I'm sure there is usually a lot of corruption there.
Speaker 1: I'm imagining Joseph if he was in our whatever.
Speaker 1: He would have been a bribe and a tokeleze, but you know the way God had planned it.
Speaker 1: No, for the process to take place and for God to continue taking you where he is taking you, you have to follow the process, and this process is being patient in the Lord so that he can break through for you.
Speaker 1: He can break through for me, because I have followed the process and the other thing that we had that is, allowing God to use to give a breakthrough is a faithful heart, but not as as if he were.
Speaker 1: We are talking about a faithful heart.
Speaker 1: Let's read Psalms 26, verse 1 to 6,.
Speaker 1: Psalms 26, verse 1 to 6, vindicate me, lord, for I have a blameless life.
Speaker 1: Give me a new King James Version.
Speaker 1: Kindly vindicate me, o Lord, for I have worked in my integrity.
Speaker 1: I have also trusted in the Lord.
Speaker 1: I shall not sleep.
Speaker 1: Examine me, o Lord, and prove me.
Speaker 1: Try.
Speaker 1: My mind and my heart for you, for your loving kindness, is before my eyes and I have worked in your truth.
Speaker 1: Let's continue.
Speaker 1: I have not sat with idolatrous motors, nor will I go with hypocrites.
Speaker 1: I have hated the assembly of evildoers and will not sit with the wicked.
Speaker 1: I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will go about your altar, o Lord.
Speaker 1: That was the Psalmist saying that he will pay allegiance.
Speaker 1: Being faithful is really being able to pay allegiance, being loyal and observing all that God requires you to observe.
Speaker 1: And for me, joseph was very faithful.
Speaker 1: And as I was looking at this, joseph being in Portifas house, you know if you wasn't a faithful man.
Speaker 1: We are saying vindicate me, because he knew he had done nothing.
Speaker 1: When, at Portifas house how many really?
Speaker 1: When they are going through at half time and an opportunity arises and this woman says just go to bed with me just once and I will make you even greater, you know, when women speak in those houses, anything can happen.
Speaker 1: But Joseph, because he knew his God, he knew who God was in his life.
Speaker 1: He could not disappoint his God.
Speaker 1: What a man of God.
Speaker 1: And I'm praying that tonight, even as we sit here, as you look into our heart, supposing it is you was given that opportunity, that was you know.
Speaker 1: Or even if this let's say vice versa, supposing this was a purify himself and you are woman, who was put in that house and you are given this great opportunity and this man is grabbing you.
Speaker 1: Who do you say?
Speaker 1: I cannot do that?
Speaker 1: Have there been opportunities that have presented themselves and you have said no, not because there is any pastor seeing you, not because there is any decon seeing you, not because there is any church leader that is seeing you, but because you are fearing the Lord, who can destroy the body and your soul.
Speaker 1: You know, if we fear men.
Speaker 1: They can only destroy the body.
Speaker 1: But then how about God, who is able to destroy the body and their heart and to put everything in hell?
Speaker 1: That is the God we are talking about and that is the God Joseph said.
Speaker 1: I would rather I would rather, whatever happens, if it is that person watch a ningye instead of being unfaithful.
Speaker 1: I do not know, in your home, how faithful you are, those who are married.
Speaker 1: I do not know, women, how faithful you are to your husband, how faithful and, of course, I am talking a man and a woman at Parkour.
Speaker 1: We will never talk about any other gender.
Speaker 1: We are talking about a man and a woman as a couple, as a family person.
Speaker 1: Even as our brother kept praying for the family, I was thanking God Thank you, my brother, for that prayer.
Speaker 1: And because families are really under attack and it is because the devil is really seeing, and I'm imagining that the devil trying to seal this faithfulness, and I'm imagining, like someone was saying another day, that the marriages are really in trouble because now, instead of a man, I mean a man struggling and feeling like someone would see their wife, they are now afraid that another woman can see their wife.
Speaker 1: Can we imagine, or they are struggling, that instead of a woman being afraid that the man could be going out with another woman, they are afraid that another man might grab his husband.
Speaker 1: This is so sad.
Speaker 1: This is the life that we are living in, and so what am I saying In all these things?
Speaker 1: Are you faithful to your family If it is a husband?
Speaker 1: Are you faithful to your wife If it is a woman?
Speaker 1: Are you faithful to your husband If the children?
Speaker 1: Are you faithful to your families?
Speaker 1: Where are you born?
Speaker 1: And this is when we are faithful in our families.
Speaker 1: Whatever we are asking from the Lord, he is able to break through for us, but not as if he were In this month where we have not allowed God to be God in our lives.
Speaker 1: Where we have not, we are felt each, each.
Speaker 1: You know we can always tell when we are not doing well in our Christian work with the Lord.
Speaker 1: You know that one.
Speaker 1: We can never lie to ourselves, and so, as we keep saying, when we come to hear the word of God, it just comes to help us to work in our areas where we have not worked in the ways of the Lord, that we can mend them so that the Lord can break through for us, but not as if he were.
Speaker 1: And for me, this is the month that we are supposed to allow God in those areas so that whatever issues we have in life, he can be able to break for us.
Speaker 1: And this is at the moment where we say like Daniel, you remember what Daniel said?
Speaker 1: In Daniel, chapter 3, verse 17 to 18, media Daniel.
Speaker 1: This is what Daniel said.
Speaker 1: This is a very popular scripture that we know about Daniel.
Speaker 1: If that is the case, our God that is when they were told to worship the other gods of the Babylonians, but he refused.
Speaker 1: And this is what Daniel said.
Speaker 1: If that is the case, our God, whom we serve, is able to deliver us from the burning, fiery furnace I mean, that is when they were thrown in the whatever, in the fire and he will deliver us from your hand, o King.
Speaker 1: Let's continue, but if not, let it be known to you, o King, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image.
Speaker 1: But now you ask if you can you have that God.
Speaker 1: You know, even if you cross the road now, peter lies there when you are supposed to stop and you are not stopping and you are just going and you are caught by police and you are told what are you?
Speaker 1: Can you say, even you know, because the easiest thing they do is that we're short of hope.
Speaker 1: To our channel and for our Christian I mean for us, somebody who is not really faithful to the Lord the easiest thing to say is that I want to say, I want to say but are we doing the right thing?
Speaker 1: Are we being faithful?
Speaker 1: Is that where because actually I believe most of us Christians need to make sure that sometimes the corruption that runs around because when the non-believers are doing this, we are also doing the same you are saying, hey, it's the end.
Speaker 1: You got to live a 5K watch and it is short, you know.
Speaker 1: But are we being faithful?
Speaker 1: Are we being faithful?
Speaker 1: When are we helping those people who are fighting corruption in our nation to fight it?
Speaker 1: We are not when we are being unfaithful people.
Speaker 1: And the last one is forgiveness.
Speaker 1: For us to be able to have empowered breakthroughs, a heart of forgiveness is looked for, and in this case I'm imagining forgiveness is never easy.
Speaker 1: Never easy.
Speaker 1: And you can imagine for Joseph when he was met by his brother.
Speaker 1: So when he came, I mean he connected with his brothers.
Speaker 1: Remember, we did the summary of chapter 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42.
Speaker 1: And I said to end it took a psalm, quawwrefu, so that we understand more of the character of Joseph.
Speaker 1: And I'm imagining, I don't know when, I was thinking about that character of Joseph.
Speaker 1: And you know, this is not easy.
Speaker 1: It is never easy to forgive someone.
Speaker 1: You can imagine how they sold him.
Speaker 1: It would have been very tough for I mean for him to forgive.
Speaker 1: And that is human.
Speaker 1: We are really human and forgiveness is really not in our fingertips.
Speaker 1: But it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: God doesn't want, doesn't care whether we are human.
Speaker 1: He is the one who created us and made us who we are, and all what he demands of us For him to break through, for us, is to have a heart of forgiveness.
Speaker 1: As we are talking about this, I do not know, I'm imagining having that grudge and having you know to engin to say, hey, this is not what they're forgiving.
Speaker 1: I cannot and we refuse to forgive.
Speaker 1: But you know what the Lord can see.
Speaker 1: We began by saying the heart of man, the heart of man, is weakened and deceitful.
Speaker 1: It is only God who knows it.
Speaker 1: It is only God who can know my heart, how it is and for him to break through.
Speaker 1: For me, I have to forgive.
Speaker 1: It does not matter.
Speaker 1: Sometimes there are issues that we see these are two way beyond to be forgiven.
Speaker 1: But imagine that is you.
Speaker 1: That is now what we are saying.
Speaker 1: It is you, it is not God.
Speaker 1: For God, everything has to be forgiven, and Joseph has shown us a very good example.
Speaker 1: He has shown us it is possible Forgiving those guys that now you know they were even deciding to kill him, were it not for his brother who said watcha to, to see more watcha, to move, so that we know we did not shed blood.
Speaker 1: And thank God for that brother.
Speaker 1: And that is how he was saved.
Speaker 1: And so forgiveness is very crucial.
Speaker 1: Let's read Colossians, chapter three, verse 13.
Speaker 1: Colossians media bearing with one another and forgiving one another if anyone has a complaint against one another.
Speaker 1: Even as Christ forgive you, so you also must do.
Speaker 1: Can we read that in NIV?
Speaker 1: Kindly, niv version bear with each other and forgive one another.
Speaker 1: If any of you has grievance against someone, forgive as the Lord forgive you Do.
Speaker 1: You know, each one of us worried not for God.
Speaker 1: No one would be standing, including myself.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be standing here, because it is because he forgave us.
Speaker 1: And so what the Lord says you have also the way God was intentional in forgiving your sins, in forgiving my sins.
Speaker 1: We cannot allow ourselves to have granges.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it is very difficult when we know someone has really done bad things to you and you are expected to forgive them.
Speaker 1: And it becomes and I'm imagining you are telling me but you know, sometimes you are so wounded and you feel this at a sake kugusa here, sake kugusa here.
Speaker 1: Kinder, under each book we are saying God is able to give that forgiveness and sometimes you have got probably to walk with you know, to allow someone to walk with you know, sometimes we have been wounded in our lives so many, so many times, even by our families.
Speaker 1: We have been wounded so many times that even forgiving them, you don't even want to go that route.
Speaker 1: But the Lord is saying because he forgave us, it is never, he said, by the way, it is not he say when someone wrongs us, but the spirit of God who has said we forgive, he is able to help us, to forgive one us as if he was a man.
Speaker 1: And so my prayer is tonight, if there is someone that you have a garage for you to get the Lord break through for you.
Speaker 1: You have to forgive.
Speaker 1: We have no options.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it and I'm not forgive.
Speaker 1: I'm saying I'm not saying you can forgive, and then you know you can still forgive, but I'm not saying you allow that person in your life so that they can continue doing what they continued.
Speaker 1: You forgive them and tell God you want to release them, probably kind of under what you were, because I'm imagining probably someone hurt you in a way that you can still see that I am.
Speaker 1: I can imagine you can continue remembering.
Speaker 1: We are not saying you can forget, because probably if there is a wound, that is there, but if it is a wound in the heart you can go.
Speaker 1: There are people that can help us go through the process and I'm talking like this because I know mental illness is very real and and sometimes it is only the spirit of God and also they are professionals that God has given to us in form of psychologists, counselors that can walk through, you know, with us, through that heart, that you can pull your heart so that even as we pray because we can be able to pray but then you feel it is not coming and we are not saying so keep it a talk, a heavy.
Speaker 1: It may not be easy, but you can be able to walk with someone that can help you to go through that, so that you can get healed in your heart and you move on in life.
Speaker 1: And that is what God expects from us, because if we remain holding and saying who you really are, you need for me, yes, you are probably.
Speaker 1: They moved on, they moved on, but so you continue, you know, because you are carrying someone.
Speaker 1: Surely now God and give us water.
Speaker 1: Can we imagine if God I mean God did not give us Jesus and he continued carrying other mother and be so many?
Speaker 1: But because he just loved us the way we are and he just forgave us our sins, he expects you to carry, to carry the same grace to other people for forgiveness.
Speaker 1: And even as we come to the conclusion or to the closure of this, of this message, I want to remind us that all what we have talked about, about trust, about patience, about faithfulness, about forgiveness by the way, I'm not even trying to say it is very easy, all these things, it is a process, but the Lord is willing to work with us.
Speaker 1: Our faith, our journey, or our work with the Lord, is a journey of faith and we have to allow that, believing and tell God I'm willing.
Speaker 1: As long as we are willing, the Lord is able to carry us through and to help us get, you know, rid of those things that are really on our way so that we can get a breakthrough.
Speaker 2: And I sing a song I'll say yes, lord, yes to your willing, to your way.
Speaker 2: I'll say yes, lord, yes, I will trust you and obey when your spirit speaks to me.
Speaker 2: With my whole heart, I will agree and my answer will be yes, lord, yes, a singer said.
Speaker 1: I will say yes and therefore, I want to say to you if you want to say yes to the Lord tonight, through what you are going through, that which you find difficult to release, is it trust, is it patience, is it faithfulness, is it and forgiveness, that which is in your heart that you feel it is difficult, you can say yes to the Lord and he is able to change you.
Speaker 1: And therefore, even as we say again yes to the Lord, I want to just take this song to your heart and say yes to the Lord so that he can be able to work.
Speaker 1: It is not in our capacity to be able to work out all the issues that we are going through.
Speaker 1: There are many more.
Speaker 1: We could go on and on and on talking about the character of Joseph, but we want to say Lord for those few.
Speaker 1: Those are the ones I want each one of us just to identify in your heart.
Speaker 1: Don't to go for many others, but if there are many others that the Lord is bringing in your heart, just bring them to the table as we lay our lives to him this evening and as we say yes to the Lord, let us allow him.
Speaker 1: I want you just to buy with your head and just think through your life and say yes to the Lord.
Speaker 2: I'll say yes, Lord, yes to your will and to your way.
Speaker 2: I'll say yes, Lord, yes.
Speaker 2: I will trust you and obey, when your spirit speaks to me with my whole heart, how I'll agree and my answer will be yes, Lord, yes.
Speaker 1: Yes, our Father and our God, I personally present myself to you, god, saying yes, and I will say yes to your will and that, lord Almighty, I want to pray for each one of us that is here tonight and everyone of us that is following online, our Father, that we are going to say yes to you, lord and my Father, even when we see it is difficult, we will still say yes to you, god, because we know it is not by our own.
Speaker 1: We can never work out on our own, jehovah, god, but we will allow you, the Spirit of God, to come and speak to our hearts, to come and just come inside our hearts, lord, and just work in our spirits so that my Father, that heart which could be still wicked, which is my Father not allowing you to work in my Father, you are, you, spirit of God.
Speaker 1: You are able to come down in our hearts so that, my Father, my God, you can be able to take us to another level.
Speaker 1: You are able to remove the wickedness in our hearts.
Speaker 1: You are able to remove every untrusting that is in our hearts.
Speaker 1: You can be able to remove the impatience in our hearts.
Speaker 1: You can be able to remove the unfaithfulness in our hearts.
Speaker 1: You can be able to remove, lord, even Jehovah God, that unforgiveness in our hearts, so that you can break through on our behalf.
Speaker 1: My Father, we realize, jehovah God, this is a month of empowered breakthrough and there is no way, lord, you can come and break through for us if we are not willing to allow you to work in our hearts, o God.
Speaker 1: Therefore, lord, we invite you, I'm inviting you in my heart, lord, come and work in my heart so that, my Father, the burdens that have been bearing, lord, you can, jehovah God, break through for me and for my beloved brothers and sisters.
Speaker 1: I pray that, lord.
Speaker 1: They are also speaking to you, lord, and saying come, lord Jesus, into my heart and break everything so that you can, that is not allowing to come into their heart, so that you can break through in their situations.
Speaker 1: Tonight, our Father and our God, I know you are so faithful.
Speaker 1: We have been sitting at your table and I want to believe, my Father.
Speaker 1: Your Word has come to us in clarity, my Father, and I want to believe each one of us has gotten something, my God, because you cannot invite us to your table and go back the same, our Father, and where our hearts are still not ready.
Speaker 1: We are asking that, King of Glory, let the spirit of God continue working in us, o God, because it is an exchange that, when you allow you to come, and, my Father, you will break through for us.
Speaker 1: And if we, we just prevent our hearts from allowing you to come into our hearts, then, my Father, we cannot expect you to push yourselves into our lives and break through for us.
Speaker 1: Because, god Almighty, life is about choices.
Speaker 1: We can choose to allow you and we can choose not to allow you.
Speaker 1: But tonight, my Father and our God, I want to pray that Jehovah, god, everything, every one of us, jehovah that has had my voice today, who is here physically, and those that are following us online, and even those who will follow later.
Speaker 1: My Father, my God, I pray that each one of us, our God, we shall make a choice to have you, god Almighty, break through for us, because we will allow you, jehovah, god, to work in our lives.
Speaker 1: Our Father, we give you praise, Lord Almighty, we give you the honor for hearing us, and for this we pray, believing and trusting in Jesus' name.
Speaker 1: Amen, amen, and God's people say it Amen, amen, and may God bless you and keep you and may he make His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you and go to serve the Lord even the rest of the week until we meet again.
Speaker 1: God bless you.
Speaker 1: And for the cup of tea, lord, we bless you for the cup of tea we partake of a tree thanksgiving and we pray for them that cannot afford a meal.
Speaker 1: To remember them.
Speaker 1: And thank you for Paki that we can always.
Speaker 1: I expect a cup of tea after this service in Jesus' name.
Speaker 1: Amen, god bless you.
