Uh some of you had reached out, um, you know, uh yesterday, our sister uh purity uh Simeo, uh the the the son uh sort of got um we got lost after the service. He's a special needs child. And after the service, uh he he he was able to um sort of sneak out following uh other children. We're going for uh uh some sports and um uh we've been looking for him uh since yesterday. We are there last night until very late in the evening um trying to look for him um in the area of Imara Daima where he was last seen. And uh by yesterday, last night, as you saw in the message, we had not yet found him. But we are we are believing God that he's safe and that he'll be able to be found and united back uh with the family. And so um we just like to just before we just start the meeting, just just just lift him uh you know before the Lord and uh and just pray, just say a prayer for him right now this morning. And our sister Purity is here, I've seen her connected. Uh, it's not easy to be uh separated from your child, especially a child who has a special needs child who cannot uh be able to speak for himself. Um and and so we just want to, uh as a family, just want us to uh I just say a prayer of faith uh this morning before we go in our service. Uh let's just pray for him, pray for his safety, uh, pray for his reunification with the family uh as soon as and you know, as soon as possible, and that um he'll be found. And um this this morning we have sent um you know messages on social media. Uh we put in a lot of posters we are putting yesterday afternoon in different places to try to just alert people. Uh but we we want to believe God that he'll be found. And uh before we begin the service, I just wanted us to uh uh just lift in you know that need before God just in prayer and stand with the family.

SPEAKER_00 5:05

Uh just uh Father Lord in Jesus' mighty and holy name. We are grateful this wonderful morning. We thank you and we glorify your name. We lift your name above any other name. Jehovah God, this wonderful morning. We humble ourselves, Jehovah God, as a united family in one faith, in one heart, in one mind, in one spirit, Jehovah God, even as we lift our own, our son, Trevor, unto your aunt. Father, we want to thank you, Jehovah God, for the gift of this boy. Lord, we want to thank you, Jehovah God, for the unity that God you have given to him together with the parents for all this year. Jehovah God, yesterday, the 28th of July, of June, Father Lord, Trevor, uh uh got lost. But we are standing in one accord, in one faith. Lord, lifting this matter unto you, oh God. We are praying, Jehovah, God, Father, for your divine intervention, because you are indeed a miracle working, God. Father, Lord, we have been instructed to call unto you, even at such times when there is a lot of uncertainty, and that God, you will come through, Jehovah, God, and intervene. Lord, today, Father, even as the search comes to the second day, we pray Jehovah God for the power of uh uh Trevor being found in the name of Jesus. We want to cover Trevor by the precious blood of Jesus Christ. We want to speak safety upon his life, we want to speak protection against any other plan under power of the enemy in the name of Jesus Christ. The trauma that this has come with God shall be settled in the name of Jesus Christ. The uncertainty, Lord, shall be settled in the name of Jesus. Father, we pray that this city, Jehovah God, will be a safer place for Trevor to be found in the name of Jesus Christ. Therefore, Lord, we want to speak to Trevor's life forever in his Jehovah God right now. That one in his safe, Jehovah God, in whichever hand that God might have landed. We want to speak, oh God. The Lord, you will activate faith in the person, oh God. You will activate love, you will activate compassion, Jehovah Lord. Lord, that Trevor will be found, and that you will be able, Jehovah God, to communicate and write in the contact, Jehovah Lord, that will help in the tracing of the parents and even Lord, in a manner that God Trevor will be found. We as the Craig family, together with Purity family, we stand in one faith. We pray, Jehovah God, for this miracle, Jehovah God, to happen in the name of Jesus, and it shall be made public, and we shall all rejoice, and we shall all glorify your name. That indeed we prayed, and that God, you came through, Jehovah God. Father Lord, today we pray for continuous after Jehovah God, and most importantly, that travel shall be found in the name of Jesus. Father, we shall be very careful as a ministry to come back with you and before you with our hearts full of rejoicing, gratitude, and celebration that God, you have again come through for us. We pray for peace upon peace upon purity and the family, Lord. We pray that God you will give them that heart of peace, oh God, that even as they go through the surgeon, oh my Lord, you will grant them divine peace to the glory and honor of your name. Father, we want to thank you that every estate within the city of Nairobi, every estate, Lord, every place that Trevor might have gone to Lord, indeed it will be found. His footsteps will be traced in the name of Jesus. Lord, I pray that God, his presence will speak of uh our peace and of safety to the glory and honor of your name. Father, we want to speak into his life, that God will be able to communicate, he will be able to coordinate to the glory and honor of your name, and that Trevor will be found. Father, we want to thank you even as we continue with this 30-day challenge today, the 29th, oh God, Father, be the uh second last day. We are honored to be here over God in all of you, even as we continue to worship. We pray this, believing and trusting in Jesus, mighty and holy name. We pray. Amen.

SPEAKER_01 9:42

Over to you, amen, amen. Thank you so much, Pastor Shkuku. And we join together, and we believe that that has been done, and uh, it shall be exactly as we have prayed, that God is going to uh to do a miracle uh to us and to the family and to our sister at purity. So, with that, brethren, I would like us just to dive in today, uh, into our today's teaching. Let's just go straight

Daily Pledge, Mantras, And Anchors

SPEAKER_01 10:08

on. We have um daily pledge right there on the screen. It's day 29th. God has been gracious to us, and uh, let's just do our daily pray this morning. Uh, we declare this in every circumstance. I'm a creative and compassionate spiritual being currently living in physical form. And I am wonderfully made, I am valuable, and I am unique. God's divine plan is for me to be connected in a living relationship with Him and all living things. I am not late, I there's a reason behind everything that has happened into my life up to this moment. I may not fully understand it now, but I choose to put my total trust in you, God. We declare together, brethren, and surely God's goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life in Jesus' name. We declare that this word shall be true to us, this word shall manifest true in us this morning, in Jesus' mighty name, that surely his goodness and his mercy shall follow us all the days of our lives, and we shall put our total trust in him. Say amen to that this morning. Let's do our daily prayer. Thank you for my blessed life and this magnificent universe and this beautiful new day. We ask that you please bless all living things today with your love, with your grace, and with your appearance. You flow to me and through me infinite love, joy, peace, purpose, and prosperity during this new day that you have given unto us. I say amen, amen, amen to that. Let us do our mantras this morning. We declare with Paul, as he wrote to the Philippian church, that we can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens me, not through our own strength, not through anything that we have, but through Jesus Christ who strengthens me. Even when things are difficult like they are, we can declare with Paul that we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us, and that we are living on purpose and we are on schedule. We are divine nature in Jesus' name. Say amen. Amen to that this morning. Key truths. Again, we remind ourselves for 30 days. We have reminded ourselves of the importance of the knowing that we since we are spiritual beings, understanding how the spiritual world works and power in the physical world is measured, how much you can lift up, but in the spiritual world, power is measured by how much you can let go. And surely you go out, as we have learned many things from day one up to now. We have been challenged along the path. We have learned a lot of things, and most of you have been challenged to let go of anything that has not served us and taking things that will help us fabricate at a different frequency. And I pray and trust that you have experienced that for the last 28 days. And this morning we declare that power in the spiritual world is measured by how much you can let go. And we pray that the spirit of release is going to flow through each one of us that uh we'll be willing to let go and embrace new things so that we can be elevated and live at a different frequency in Jesus' name. Reminded ourselves again this morning of this scripture in Deuteronomy 15, 10. Let's give generacy to them and do so without a grudging heart. Uh, then, because of this, the Lord your God bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to. It's an important principle that has really been a pillar, anchor of our 30-day challenge and all of them. God wants us to be generous with everything and not just resources. God wants to be generous with our time. God wants us to be generous with our gifting, um, that we can be out there, we can be able to look out for others and be generous to them. And we, as we do that, God is saying, He bless us in all our work and in everything that we put our hand to. And this morning we declare, may your blessings of God be upon each one of us. May He bless the work of our hands, may He bless everything that we put our hand to, even as we stretch out the hand, be generous unto those around us, and especially the poor and those who are disadvantaged in around us. Key fast says this morning that have been anchoring us in this uh 30-day challenge, Matthew 6.33. I believe it is now a memory verse for all of us. Matthew 6.33 says, But seek first his kingdom and this righteousness. It says, and all these things be given to us uh to you as well. That we seek his kingdom, uh, we seek his righteousness, and he promises that all these other things be given unto us. And we stand on that promise today, even under the difficult circumstances that we are under. We declare this scripture that all these things will be given unto us as well as we seek him. And all these things means everything. There's none that's left out, whether it is safe, whether it is grace, it shall be given unto us as we seek his kingdom this morning. We pray that shall be true to each one of us to be true to our families, be true, even to our sisters, uh Beauty's family this morning. And 1 Corinthians 2 9 it says, Uh, no eye has seen, no ear has heard, no human mind has conceived the things that God has prepared for those who love him. He has got great plans for us. The plans are to prosper us, not to harm us, and we declare and we stand on that promise even this morning. That the plans that God has for us, they are plans for good. Not plans to harm us, but plants for good. And may this word come to truthful this morning in Jesus' name. Give us again 1 Samuel 10, 6 to 10. Says the Spirit of the Lord will come powerfully upon you, and you'll prophesy with them, and you'll be changed into a different person. Once these signs are fulfilled, do whatever you are under finds to do. For God is with you. Go down ahead of me to Gilgal. I'll surely come down to you to sacrifice burnt offerings and fellowship offerings. But you must wait seven days until I come to you and tell you what you have to do. The Bible says first nine as Saul turned to leave Samuel. God changed Saul's heart and all and all these signs we have fulfilled that day. And when he and his servant arrived at Gibeah, possession of prophets met him. The Spirit of God came powerfully upon him, and he joined in their prophesying. Brethren, the Spirit of God came to change us. It was important for the Spirit of God to come over Saul, for him to be able to do anything. In fact, the Bible says he tell him, Don't do anything until these signs come over you. Brethren, we are trusting God that these third days he has brought us closer to him. We have a bigger hunger for him. We are closer to him than never before. We pray that his spirit will continue to fill us every day as we continue to serve him in Jesus' name, and that we will be changed, we'll be transformed, that we will all have a testimony of what God is able to do in Jesus' name. Say amen. Amen to that. Remind ourselves of our health disciplines again. We pray that this will become part of us. Uh, spend time, connect with nature as much as you can. Let's take a lot of water, keep ourselves hydrated, and let's take care of our bodies, there are license to be on earth, and let us purpose to be a blessing to someone today, and then one that cannot pay back. Say amen. Amen to that.

Why You Need Pallbearers In Life

SPEAKER_01 17:44

Now, with that, I'd just like us to dive in this morning into our last second last teachings. And today we have combined a very important teaching. But this is what we have covered so far, brethren. Um, for the last days, God has been gracious to us. Uh, we've continued to you know to learn every single morning. This is what we have covered until the last session where we talked about the power of calls, and yesterday of what was Sabbath. We didn't have any new teaching, but today we want to dive into a very, very important topic, and that is gathering your Paul bearers early, gathering your Paul bearers early. Very, very important thing. Uh, in uh very one of the most important lessons here um that we want to learn today. Actually, it's uh uh uh gathering your Paul Bearers early and on the subject of honor. Uh we are covering it this morning. Now, um what who are Paul bearers? I guess this is maybe one of the most most profound, uh, I would say important teachings that we're going to get in this 30-day challenge uh because it's critical. Paul by Paul Bearers uh carry the dead. If you have been to funerals, uh you've seen, you'll always say, hey, who is carrying the one the pole bearers is always um the friends or the grandchildren, or there is always a group of people who are called in uh whenever someone is being buried, they honor the life of the individual by paying respects before his buried. So the pole bearers are normally very, very important people uh in any burial. And they are normally chosen by family and and and are individuals who are considered very close to the person that it was being laid to rest. I think the point here that we have been making is why wait until uh you are not there, you're not present, uh to pick people that can help you and carry you to your grave. And this principle is very important. We all know that it's impossible to walk through life without asking for help. It is impossible to walk through life without asking for help. It doesn't matter how which family you come from, how rich, how powerful you come from, if you are going to be on this planet, uh God has created us to need help along the way. He has created us to be at a point where we are vulnerable and we need to the shoulder of someone else to carry us in our weakest moments. Um, when pressure becomes intense uh as you journey through life and different seasons of your life, you will need something to lean on. You will need something to lean on. And if you don't have strong uh people around you, that's how people end up slipping into drugs, into alcohol, into all the pleasures, that you can be able to reach out to fellow believers who can lead you toward life and not death. So as you journey through life, it is important to have people who are close to you, um, who you are sure that in your most vulnerable, when life becomes difficult, you can lean on their showners. You cannot do life when you don't have those people. And this is something that sometimes we are not deliberate about. It's something that we lose over. And when you do that, when tragedy comes, when there's a problem, you can find yourself standing alone, uh, and things can be very, very difficult. Um, and so if you're going to journey along life, yeah, it is important to make sure that you're good people. I know we are using the term here, Paul Bearers, because I think there's no better way to describe it. It's important to make sure that as you do life, you have people that you can lean on when times become tough. There'll be moments that you cannot pray. There'll be moments when you are too weak to stand on your leg on two legs. There'll be moments when you you are completely, you know, very, very down. And in moments like those, you want to make sure you've got people that you can lean on, people can be able to stand there and tell you, don't worry, be encouraged, leave it with me. Don't Worry about it. It will be taken care of. It will be handled. Just stand firm, be calm. In your most vulnerable moment, you want to make sure that you got people around you that can provide you your shoulder and you can be able to lean on. That happens to every one of us. And so it's important that as you go through life, you are deliberate about who are these people, who are these people that you are doing life with. That you know at midnight, if you make that telephone call and you call them, they'll be there. Irrespective of whether it's raining, whether it is what, but you know they will be there with you, they'll be standing there in that hour of need. Jesus had three men he kept very close to him. Yet Peter, yet James, and yet John. And you know, he knew if he wanted if Jesus Christ needed these three men close to him, even us, we need our Peter, we need to have our gems, and we have to have our John around us so that in our most difficult moment that they can be there for us. You remember uh in the garden when Jesus was about to be crucified, he went with the nine disciples, the disciples, he left the nine behind, and then he took these three with him, and they went in the in the transfiguration where he's being transfigured, these three were there with him. They were close people, and so as we do through life, one of the lessons that we need to pick here is do you have people that you can lean on when you are at your lowest? You have to be deliberate about that and pick them. You know, you have to you this is your is a decision that you have to make, you have to pick them, and it's not just um you know, it's not just during your most difficult times, but you also need them in your good moments. Because if you want to reach the altitudes of your purpose and calling, if you for you to be able to achieve your dream life that we have been talking about here, for you to be able to scale the mountain, the attitudes of your purpose and your calling, you're going to need people, these poor bearers, who you can link harms with you, and they can help you, uh they can help you move uh towards your destiny. They are very, very important. Those who climb a mountain or have done mountaineering, and I know there are some of us here who are very good in mountaineering, but they will tell you that when you're going up those mountains, guides and everything can tap there. And reaches a point where you need to cross over ridges, and you're going to need people to hold that ladder where you need to hold the ladder for each other and be able to cross over to the other side. And so you have to be deliberate about that because this is the reality of life. You cannot do life without people that you know you can lean on, and you have to be very deliberate about that and make sure that you've got your Peter, you've got your James, and you've got your John around you. So that when times become tough, you can be able to lean on them and you can be able to do life together, whether it is in the good times and the bad times. But these are people you know, they will stand with you, they will not ask questions, uh, they will they will not uh debate over it, they will not um they will act and talk later. Uh they won't be started, but what why were you, what were you doing there? Or what was happening? Why? No, they don't ask questions. If you are in a moment of need, they will act, they'll ask questions later. You need your Peter, you need your James, and you need your John, and you ought to be very deliberate about having those people in your life. So next to God and next to your spouse, your pole bearers are the best thing in your life. So next to God and next to your spouse, for those of us who are married, your thaw bearers are the best thing in your life. And if you are wise in how you choose them, they will help you navigate your purpose, they will support you to achieve your dreams, your purpose, the calling that God has led in your life will be an encouragement to you, and we have to be deliberate about having these people in our lives. So we need to get people that will love you for who you are, uh, that believe in God's calling for your life. They are committed to each other, they're committed to you. Uh, the spirit of brotherhood, the spirit of friendship, the spirit of mentorship and love needs to be in these people so that then they can be able to help you, stand with you for you know there to help you achieve the purpose that God has called you in your life. And you see, it is two ways. They are helping you, and you are helping them. You are there for them and they are there for you. You need these people in your life for you to be able to navigate life. And you see, the mistake we make is we think that everybody is, you know, oh, it's everybody. No, it's not everybody. You need to you have to have those relationships that are so special in your life that you know when you call, they'll come and be able to stand um, you know, by you. So you need to get people, and this is very important: people that love you for who you are, people that don't judge you, people that don't don't don't feel like you are, you are, you know, you know, like you are trying to fit in. Uh people that just believe in you, that believe in the calling that God has in your life, and people that you can be committed to each other. Then you're able to create this bond of brotherhood, sisterhood, friendship, uh, you know, mentoring, and that just create that environment of love. And when you have such people around you, there's no challenge that you cannot be able to go through. There'll be valleys, like you know, right now today we are facing a big valley, a big mountain. But you know what, when you have these people around you, you can be able to navigate life and be able to go out the other side in Jesus' name. And that's why people are very deliberate about where they go. You are very some that's why some of the decisions you have to take are very important. Because for you to choose these people, they they determine a lot. Sometimes they change, they can change where you live just because of this. They can change where you fellowship, they can change where many things because these are fundamental to us. And this morning, the question is: do you have people like that? Have you been deliberate about investing in them? Because it's an investment you have to make. You don't wake up, you know, just one day and you've got people like that, trusted relationship like that near you. They are built, they are developed over time. You know, trust and faith is built over time. You go through you know valleys together, you go through mountains together, you have scars, you know, together, you fight together, and that bond of friendship is built, and then you can be able to navigate anything together. Then Genesis chapter 2, verses 8, the Bible says, the Lord God said, It is not good for the man to be alone, I'll make a helper suitable for him. So from the beginning, God knew that it's not good for a man to be alone. And so if you are doing life and you're alone, we want to say it's not good. This scripture is used for just you know when we are talking about marriage, but it's not just marriage, it is a principle that's not good for a man to be alone. If you are hanging alone, you are solo, you're just doing your own things on your own, you have no relationships, we want to declare it's not good for you. And that's why God said they'll make a helper suitable for him. And and because that's a biblical principle. In Proverbs 18:1, it says, An unfriendly person pursues selfish ends, and against all sound judgment starts chorus. An unfriendly person talking about friendship, the gift of friendship. And in James chapter 1, 5 says, if any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God who gives generously or without finding fault, and it will be given unto you. So if you don't have this relationship with you to ask God, he's going to give them unto us. But these are very, very important, uh, important

How To Choose The Right People

SPEAKER_01 29:43

people. So, how do you uh pick these people? Uh, just a quick um um, you know, a few points to highlight here. You know, seek God, seek God. It is important that as we have said in the book of James, it says, let us ask God, who is generous, he'll give us, he'll give us wisdom to pick these people wisely. So seek ye first. Uh, that God will open your eyes with wisdom to know, to have these people, to select them, to see them, because God is the one who sends people your way. But you need to be sensitive to realize, wow, these are people, this is somebody that you know I can get close to. This is somebody that is, you know, a person that is a trusted relationship that can be built. Uh, and and and so you need to seek God fast, He can guide you. Number two, when you are seeking these type of people, get like-minded people. If you have people in your life who are not like-minded, they'll draw you away. If you have relationships that, for example, that don't love God, that don't love church, that are that are not in, that don't like love what you do, churches that they'll drag you out of your calling. So it is important when you are choosing this relationship to get people who are like-minded, um, you know, who are like you, who have common interests and a common view of life, so that they don't start dragging you out of your purpose into other things. Then variety is very important. You have to make sure you've got different uh different people of different mindsets and different ways of doing things, um, so that variety is always important in relationships. And then get people who can be honest, who can be brutally honest, people that they love you to a place where they can be honest with you. That they can tell you, no, my brother, no, this is not right. Uh, they can cancel you, they can rebuke you, they can they can tell you when you're on the wrong and without missing words, and out of true love. People that can be honest with you, that they don't sugarcoat things, they will tell you as it is, and with a lot of love, so that when you are in them, when you are with them, you always know that if you're if you're coding out of out of hand, they'll tell you, they'll correct you. When you have such type of people around you, you would go very far. And I thank God for um, you know, the quality of relationship that we have built here in this ministry. You know, we are not many, so you know, God allows us to get closer to each other, uh, you know, we get we get to know each other, we you know, we we build such great relationships here, and we are really grateful to God for that as a family of God, meeting here every morning. We get to know each other here, we've got to um, you know, to you know, to get to know each other in ways that would never be impossible. And so, very, very important principle. If you are here today, you don't have this type of people in your life, get them quickly. Wonder over this subject. You have two, three, four people who are really, really, you know, far, you know, good relationships that you can journey through life together and different gifting. That's why far are it's important. You need people with different giftings because as you navigate through life, you'll be dealing with different challenges. Those different challenges require different giftings. Uh, you know, Allah. And we thank God uh this is something that cream as a ministry, God has really been gracious to us, and uh uh that's why we have been able to weather many, many storms, and we are trusting God that even as we journey together, the many more mountains that are ahead of us, we shall be able to scale in Jesus' name. Amen. So let's leave that subject of Paul Bearers there.

Honor That Opens Doors

SPEAKER_01 33:07

Allow me to talk about honor very quickly, and then I'll be inviting our sister Barnice to lead us in prayer. Honor. The Bible says in Malachi chapter 1 to 6 a son honors his father and a slave is master. But if I'm a father, where is the honor due to me? If I'm a master, where is the respect due to me? says the Lord Almighty. It is you, priests, who show contempt for my name. Uh, but you ask, how have we shown contempt for your name? Then in in Matthew 5, 38 to 48, you can also read the story here uh of you know um the very important principle here in in let's say first for uh uh verse 40 says, and if anyone wants to sue you, take your shirt, hand over your cord as well. If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles, give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you. Now, here the principle of honor is very important. God highlights here in Malachi chapter 1, verse 6. He said, If a son is supposed to honor his father, where is the honor that is due to me? Brethren, honor is a very important principle. Besides getting tall bearers in your life, it's important to leave, uh to be a person that honors things. To honor someone means to value them, to see them through the lens of heaven and to esteem them no matter their behavior. Brethren, if there is one thing that can look unmerited favor and help you in, I mean, leave you open doors and you know, I would say supernatural flow in your life, it is honor. When you make up your mind, you know, and I can I can confidently say, besides generosity, honor is one of the most important virtues that will open doors unto your life. To honor someone means to value them, to see them through the lens of heaven and to esteem them no matter their behavior. If you can honor everybody that comes into your life, that sends God sends into your life, you multiply your life. You multiply your life. Because anybody that comes into contact with you and you honor Him, they want to bless you. They want to bless you, they want to they'll they they open their heart, they they bless you with your mind, with their voice, with anything that is possible, just because you honored them. To honor is to be an is an unselfish attitude that extends love and service without expecting anything in return. When you honor people, when you honor somebody, you stretch out yourself, completely stretch yourself out of your own selfishness. You you you abandon who you are and you go out unto them. You extend love, you extend service, and you are doing all this without expecting nothing in return. That's honor. And when you do that to everybody that God sends you away, brothers and sisters, I want to assure you, your wow will continue increasing and increasing and increasing. We don't uh we don't just honor some people. No, no, you say if you can extend honor, honor to people that come your way. Now we are not saying uh honor is not trust. Those are two different things, right? We are saying honor someone. I I can honor you. I may not be in agreement with you, but I'll honor you. I may not agree with what you are doing, I may not support what you are doing, but I'll give you the honor that you deserve. We honor, we need to honor those, even when we those we disagree with. And I want to say honor is an essential quality every person needs to be able to climb the mountain of life. For you to be uh to be success, successful in anything that you do, you need to understand the word honor. And you will never, without it, without honor, you may never experience worldless success. You will not be making many friends along the way, and you it was going to be difficult for you to move the gospel forward without the word honor. And so this day, brethren, on day 29, I want to say how important this word is honor. I'm telling you, if you ever find a church, a fellowship, a ministry, a group of people who honor each other, you honor the you're honoring those above you, you're honoring those below you, you're honoring those who are on your side, honor. It is you create an environment where God just moves. And Jesus was an expert at honoring. We saw him honoring even those who were considered and worthy in the kingdom. If this one that we pray is that we shall be men and women of honor. If you go to a family where they honor each other, the children are honoring the father, they honor the mother, the parents honor their children. They are looking for an opportunity to just to be a blessing to each other. It is such a blessing to be in a place which is full of honor. Jesus ate with tax collectors, he ate with prostitutes, he was with lepers, he allowed them to touch him. He had women coming to pour anointing oil onto him, even the woman was caught in adultery. You remember, he was there, you know, coming for him. So, brethren, honor is such an important virtue that we should pray for it. If it's one that should pray continuously, and even when we take time to fast and pray, is that for God to show to you know to help us understand this concept of honor? I know in some churches we have, you know, we've been only taught to honor pastors, and it's great to honor pastors. But I'm saying, no, no, it's not just important to honor men of God. It's great. It's a grace that you get. Brothers and sisters, it's even more powerful when you honor everybody. You never look down on anybody, never think you are too high or too low or too. Just honor people, give them honor. It costs you nothing. I'm telling you, honor is one of those, it's like it's like um generosity. It will cost you, you know, it is something that you it will cost you almost nothing. It's a decision that you take. Be generous with what God has given you. Same thing, honor is something that we can uh we you know we can dispense uh very well. Up honor up, honor down, honor all around, uh, honor long term, and never give up on relationships that are important to you. Never give up on relationships that are important to you. Keep honoring, keep believing that God will restore those relationships, honor those that are older than you, honor the young. And these are the things that we are taught when we were actually growing, growing up. And so, I want to say let us honor all people, every single soul that God brings to you. Let's honor them, let's value them as God values them. He sent Jesus to die for the sins of all, not just for the ones who look like you or think like you. And so, you know, let's just be people that honor, uh, honor others. The humility you develop uh when you become a person that honors will be a super, will be, will be your superpower to get to the summit uh of uh of life. So honor when you honor people, it forces you to be humble because it takes humility to honor people, to honor people who are even against you, to honor people who speak ill about you, to honor people. So it takes humility, but that humility becomes the power that propels you to success. So our keys to honor, love those, love everybody, even those who have different beliefs. Don't push a few points through people's throats. You don't always have to have your way, you know, be a good listener, don't be judgmental, uh, even if you don't agree with them, but honor them. Um, you know, so it's it's just let us just give honor where it is due, and we shall be blessed together in Jesus' name. Brethren, allow me to leave it there. I'll invite our sister, um, you know, Barney to lead us in prayer. These two things, brothers and sisters, on day 29, I want to say it will change your life. You change our life, you change your ministry, you change how you live. When you be careful, make sure you surround yourself with very good fall bearers, people that can you can journey life with uh and different people variety, not just surround yourself with girls, don't just surround yourself with boys, have different people, different varieties, different ages, different professions, um, you know, have people, you know, different, you know, just just make sure you are rich in in choosing these people and invest in them. And then number two, let us just purpose to be a people that honor each other, especially in this ministry. Honor people. No, when you honor someone, you don't talk bad about them. You know, you you never ever add a word. You honor them for all they are, they are gods to creation and calls you nothing. And you're going to live, you're going to make a very big difference.
