0:00 The whole Bible has got stories of God's people who missed their inheritance. 0:30 And from the beginning of scripture till the end of scripture, we read of God being disappointed with His people. So I just want to show you a few of those examples. 0:58 Turn first of all to Genesis chapter 6. These are such amazing words that if it were not written in scripture, I wouldn't believe it. It says in Genesis 6, verse 5, that the wickedness, the Lord saw the wickedness of man was very great on the earth. 1:31 And we read there that it was basically a lot of sexual sin and a lot of murder and hatred. These are the days of Noah. 1:51 Jesus said the last days will be like that. And the second thing it says here in this verse is that every single intention, every single intention in man's thoughts was only evil. It is because the intention in the thought is evil that the action becomes evil. 2:23 And now see these tragic words. Verse 6, meditate on this. The Lord was sorry that He made man on the earth and He grieved Him. He was grieved in His heart. 2:45 God is almighty. He has existed eternally. God is almighty. God is almighty. He has existed eternally. He knows the end from the beginning. He knew everything that man would do. 3:05 Before he created Adam, he knew Adam would fall. The death of Christ on Calvary was in the mind of God from all eternity. Revelation 13 says the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ was slain before the foundations of the earth. 3:32 Where? In the mind of God. Already killed. God the Father saw Calvary before he created anything. It actually happened about 2000 years ago. 3:56 So God who knows the whole future. Why does it say He was sorry that He made man on the earth and He was grieved in His heart? Didn't He know that man would behave like this? 4:16 Yes, He did. But it's like our children. You may have a very naughty, misbehaving child. But still, you want to have children. Even though they are naughty and misbehaving, we still hope that they will change. 4:46 But God is writing here in human terms. I am sorry that I am sorry that I have ever made man on this earth. When I see in my heart when I see the way my creation is behaving. 5:14 You may have to apply that to ourself. That was the old creation. Now we say in Christ we are a new creation. What does the Lord have to say about you? The Lord is sorry that He ever brought you to being born again. 5:40 Because you have brought such disgrace to His name after you are born again by the way you live. If you are not born again, if you are not taking the name of Christ, you could not have disgraced His name. 6:04 Let me ask you a question. Who are the people who disgrace the name of Jesus Christ in India? Is it the people of other religions? No. They can never disgrace the name of Christ. It is those who take the name of Christ who disgrace that name. 6:28 See, when my wife got married to me, she got my name. She didn't have my name before that. And she cannot disgrace, she could not disgrace my name before that marriage. After taking my name, if she behaves badly, then she can disgrace my name. 6:53 So, a person becomes a real born again Christian when he spiritually marries Christ. A person who is not given his life to Christ, is not married to Christ, is not really a Christian. 7:16 A person who is born in a Christian family, in God's eyes, is not a Christian. Just like you make a decision in marriage, you have to make a decision to give your life to Christ. If you want to make a decision to give your life to Christ. 7:30 The world may put in your birth certificate, but God doesn't do that. Only when you decide, I want to marry Christ, that God calls you a Christian. And most of you have done that. 7:52 But after that, if you don't behave in a Christ-like way, you bring dishonor to the name of Christ. It's just like in marriage. I have certain standards in my life as a man, as a servant of God. And if someone marries me like my wife married me. 8:17 And then she doesn't live by those standards. But she's got my name. Then she brings this grace to my name. You've got to understand how serious it is to take the name of Jesus Christ and to say I'm a born again Christian. 8:35 Many people think that Jesus came only to die for our sins. That he did only for six hours of his life at the end of his life. 8:55 He did only for six hours of his life at the end of his life. Out of 33 and a half years that he lived, only six hours he spent on the cross. Those six hours he was dying for our sins. But what was he doing the previous 33 and a half years? 9:16 Why didn't he die for our sins when he was five years old? There's a reason. Because there was another reason why God sent Jesus to this earth. When God made Adam. 9:36 He wanted him to show forth his nature to the rest of the universe. To all the angels. They were to see a man who lived like God. They wanted to see a woman who lived like God. 9:56 They wanted to see a woman who lived like God. And God said to them multiply and have many children. So the world will be filled with a whole lot of men and women who live like God. 10:17 The angels who could not do that because they didn't have God's nature. They would wonder at this. Created beings living like God. They would wonder at this. Created beings living like God. With God's nature of love and purity. 10:37 And even though they live so pure and so holy. They are very humble. Adam did not live like that. He did not live like that. He did not live like that. Not only that. They went to the other extreme. They became like the devil. 10:58 They started telling God. And their first son became a murderer killing his brother. After some time thousands of people were born. They were all killing each other. Exploiting each other's wives. And the Lord was sorry that he made man on the earth. 11:21 And he grieved him in his heart. He grieved him in his heart. Just like you are grieved sometimes the way your children behave. So God starts all over again. He sends Jesus Christ. To show man for 33 and a half years. 11:44 How God wanted man to live. That's why he could not die for our sins when he was 12 years old. Because then a 20 year old young man can say. I don't know how to live. 12:05 Jesus never reached the age of 20. When he was 20 years old. Because you know. A 20 year old man. Has got all types of passions in his body. Which a 12 year old boy doesn't have. The Bible says in Hebrews 4:15. Jesus was tempted in every point as we are. 12:21 He lived in a world full of sin. He lived in a world full of sin. Pressured by sin on every side. Pressured by sin on every side. Pressured by sin on every side. But he lived in a heavenly life. He lived in a heavenly life. 12:29 He lived in a heavenly life. In the midst of this wicked world. In the midst of this wicked world. He lived in a heavenly life. In the midst of this wicked world. He lived in a heavenly life. In the midst of this wicked world. 12:36 To live a heavenly life in heaven is easy. In the midst of this wicked world. To live a heavenly life in heaven is easy. In the midst of this wicked world. To live a heavenly life in heaven is easy.

Do you think the carpenters in Hyderabad are living in big mansions? 15:51 To live a clean hygienic life in Hyderabad. God didn't send Jesus to a palace. Then the poor people say, yeah, it was easy for him. He was living in a rich house with a separate bedroom for himself and all that. God sent his son into a very poor home. 16:20 He had four younger brothers, two younger sisters who did not believe in him. And they must have troubled him day and night. Haven't you seen how your children fight with each other? Jesus' brothers were just like that. 16:43 His sisters were like that. And particularly when they found he is a good holy person. They would have troubled him even more. Haven't you seen this? How bad people like to trouble people, trouble people, trouble till they make them sin. 16:59 You know, if you are a very patient type of person. If you are a husband or wife or somebody in the office or brothers or sisters or somebody. They would like to irritate you, irritate you, irritate you, irritate you till you get angry then they are happy. 17:23 I made him also sin. He is like me. I am sure the four brothers and two sisters of Jesus cried that with Jesus. But he didn't sin. Not one day. 17:44 Not one year. Not 33 years. That is one of the greatest miracles that Jesus did. Have you tried to live one single day without getting angry or irritated? Imagine living like that for 33 years. 18:04 There Jesus demonstrated that you can live a heavenly life on this wicked earth. The devil is a liar. He says you can't live a heavenly life on this earth. 18:26 Jesus didn't just say it. He manifested by his life you can live a heavenly life on this earth. Now what is our calling? We have to be disciples of Jesus. A disciple means one who learns and follows. 18:48 I learned from my master. How did he do it? I want to follow in his footsteps. That means I have to demonstrate by my life. I can also live a heavenly life on this earth. That is your calling if you are a born again Christian. 19:15 You are a born again Christian. That is what the Lord wants us to demonstrate. Now if you are not a born again Christian then you don't have that cause. If you say you are a born again Christian. Then you have to recognize this is your responsibility. 19:35 Then you have to recognize this is your responsibility. Not just to live a little better life than the other children of Adam. What did Jesus mean when he said you are the light of the world? 19:56 He first said that about himself in John 8:12. I am the light of the world. Then he said that in John 9:4 and 5. As long as I am in the world I am the light of the world. Then he went away from this world to heaven. Then he told his disciples in Matthew 5:14. 20:04 Matthew 5:14. You are the light of the world. You are the light of the world. You are the light of the world. So people ask me. Who is the light of the world? Who is the light of the world? Who is the light of the world? 20:12 Who is the light of the world? He said that in John 9:4 and 5. As long as I am in the world I am the light of the world. Then he went away from this world to heaven. Then he went away from this world to heaven. Then he told his disciples in Matthew 5:14. 20:23 Matthew 5:14. Matthew 5:14. You are the light of the world. You are the light of the world. So people ask me. Who is the light of the world? I'll say me. You are a very arrogant man. You are the light of the world. I said, do you want me to say Jesus is a liar? No, no, no. You don't want me to say that. But it is Jesus who told me in Matthew 5:14 that I am the light of the world. 21:01 Not only me, but you as well. You got that responsibility too. But you say, I thought Jesus was the light of the world. Have you read John chapter 9 verse 5? As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. But he is God. He told his father in John 17, I am no longer in this world. 21:29 No, I am leaving these people here. You know, we try to evade that responsibility by saying, oh, Jesus is the light of the world. Don't look at me. I am full of darkness, but Jesus is the light of the world. 21:53 The apostles didn't say that. Apostles didn't say that. 1 Corinthians 11:1, Paul said, follow me. As I follow Christ. Philippians 3:17. Philippians 3:17. Follow people like us. You are an example. How many people have you heard say that today? 22:13 I am the light of the world. I am the light of the world. Follow me. Everybody says, no, no, no, brother. Don't look at me. Look at Jesus. Don't look at my family life. My family life is a mess. Preachers. Don't look at my children. They are all worldly, but look at Jesus. 22:37 This is not Christianity. This is hypocrisy. If a man cannot ask people to follow him, he shouldn't be opening his mouth to preach anything. If he does not know how to speak patiently and graciously to his wife, he should not get into the pulpit and speak anything. 22:59 If he is not brought up his children to follow the Lord, he should not open his mouth and preach other people. This is the tragedy in Christendom today. 23:21 They are just preaching things which may be true, but it is not true in their life. No, no, no. I don't have a heavenly life. My life is just like other worldly people, but there is a heavenly life. Supposing you have a CD player which doesn't work in your home. 23:46 will you wrap it up in a nice paper and give it as a gift to somebody? Brother, I would like to give you a very precious gift. Will you do it? I think the worst person here will not do it. If you do it, you will be doing it to insult somebody. 24:12 How many of you have given a gift to somebody of something in your home which doesn't work in your own home? Now let me ask you another question. Have you tried to give a gospel to other people which has not worked in your own home? 24:28 If you do it, you have given a CD player to somebody? Brother, this is a gift. He asks you, does it work? No, it doesn't work, but it's a gift. I mean, it doesn't work in my house, but you take it. 24:50 It may work in your house. That is how people are preaching the gospel. Brother, here's this wonderful gospel Jesus brought. Brother, has it saved you from getting angry with your wife? No, it does not save me from that, but you try it. 25:08 It may work in your home. They say, why are you giving me a gospel which has not worked in your home? You must find out whether it's working in your home, then give it to other people. We are insulting people left, right and center, giving them something which has not worked in your home. 25:33 Supposing a preacher gets up and preaches a part of the gospel, she's waving his hands and shouting. He says, will this work? My children are wayward? Will this gospel help me? 25:53 He has to say, my children are also wayward, but you try it. It may help you. What sort of gospel are we preaching? It does not work in your life. It does not work in your home. And you are preaching it to other people. 26:10 This is the trouble with today's Christian preaching. What does it mean to be the light of the world? You know the difference between light and darkness? See, if this light goes off now. Powerful lights. It won't even take you one second to discover the light has gone. 26:32 Even though it's daylight outside, this light, as soon as it goes, you'll know it. You'll suddenly find his dark here. Or in some dark night, you shine a torch. 26:54 Immediately you'll see there's a light. Light and darkness is such a tremendous difference. It's the same exact opposite. So when Jesus said, you're the light of the world. He was saying, there must be so much difference between your way of life 27:16 and the way of life of your worldly neighbor, that it's like exact opposite. The way you speak to your wife must be exactly opposite of the way that your neighbor speaks. The way you speak to your wife must be exactly opposite of the way that your neighbor speaks. 27:34 The way you bring up your children must be completely different from your non-Christian neighbor who brings up his children. Is that true? Is that true in your life? 27:55 Is that true in your home? The way you work in your office must be so different from all the other people in your office. They're the exact offices. They may come half an hour late for work but you don't come half an hour late. 28:11 They waste time with 45 minute coffee breaks and you don't do that. They go half an hour early from work but you wait till the end and then go home. They sit there and criticize and backfire against their boss but you don't do it. 28:33 Then you can say, you're the light of the world. But how many Christians have you seen like that? They take dowry for their sons but you don't take any dowry for your sons. Is that true? 28:58 I have four sons, no daughters. Nobody has preached against dowry as much as me in this country. I never took one cent for any of my sons. Because it's completely against the word of God. 29:20 Daughters are not like something you sell in the market. Okay, what is the price? Sons are not to be sold. No. And Christians are just as bad as anybody else. 29:42 And Christians are just like many others. I've just mentioned two or three areas. In every area, our life must be heavenly. But if it is not, God is grieved. So when God created man, it says that grieved in his heart when he saw the way he was developing. 30:08 In the midst of a wicked world, there was one man who was like a light. 30:30 And God was so happy. What did God say? Ah, at least one man. What did God say? In Job's time, God was so happy. What did God say? One man. What did God say? 30:50 Yeah, all the others are wicked. Many hypocrites. You know, Satan came before God. We read in the book of Job. God says, "Satan, where are we coming from?" Ah, I've been roaming around the earth. You know what Satan does when he roams around the earth? 31:12 He's called the accuser of people. He's always trying to accuse people. Ah, he's always trying to accuse people. And he's come before God to accuse this fellow. That fellow, the other fellow. That fellow says he believes in you God, but look at the way he lives. 31:32 Ah, that woman there, she says she believes in you and prays such a lot. But look at the way she lives. God listens to this. God listens to this. And he says, "But have you seen Job?" Tell me what about him. What delight it brought to God's heart, that in the midst of so many hypocrites, there was one man who was upright. 31:54 In the days of Enoch, so many people were Godless. But one man walked with God. God was so happy with Enoch. 32:22 God was so happy with Enoch. What we see in the Bible is, God is so disappointed with most of his creation. But he always has at least one witness. And Job. 32:42 And Enoch. And Noah. And later on one Abraham. Then we read how God selected the people through the seed of Abraham. And took them out of Egypt. 33:05 In the book of Exodus, you read that. 600,000 men plus many women and children. That means about 2 million, 20 lakhs people. And he brought them out. And two years later, he brought them to the borders of the land of Canaan, which he said, "I want you to go in and occupy this land." 33:29 And they looked at all the big giants living in Canaan. He said, "No, we can't conquer these people." He said, "No, we can't conquer these people." He said, "No, we can't conquer these people." They said, "No, we can't conquer these people." 33:45 They said, "No, we can't conquer these people." Joshua and Caleb said, "What about if God helps you?" He said, "What about if God helps you?" Yehoshua and Kalev, they said, "We can't conquer these people." "No, we can't conquer these people." 33:53 He said, "We can't conquer these people." He said, "No, we can't conquer these people." He said, "No, we can't conquer these people." He said, "No, we can't conquer these people." Again, God was disappointed. Because all those 600,000 people said, "No, no, we can't conquer these people." 34:04 He said, "No, we can't conquer these people." You know, this is a picture of God bringing believers out to live a heavenly life. Come on, you can live a heavenly life on earth. We look at the big, big problems and temptations and say, "No, no, no, we can't." 34:26 It's very easy to read the Old Testament and see where those Israelites went wrong. We don't realize, but we go wrong. The Pharisees, Jesus told the Pharisees. 34:47 Your fathers killed the prophets. But you say, "No, no, no, if we were living there, we would not have done that." But then they killed the biggest prophet who came down in their generation. Very easy to say, "No, no, no, they were wrong, but we won't do that." 35:07 I want to tell you, my brothers and sisters, we are all experts at finding where other people went wrong. It's much more important to know where we are going wrong. They looked at those giants. 35:27 He said, "No, we can't confront them. Even with God's help, we cannot confront them." And out of the 600,000 people, God said he was so disappointed with all of them. He said, "I'll punish them. They will all die. None of them will come to this heavenly life." 35:52 But, God had a witness even there. Only two men, Joshua and Caleb. God said, "I don't have time to show you. Read it in Numbers 14." He said, "They had another spirit." He said, "They had another spirit." What other spirit were there? 36:15 He said, "It was a spirit of faith." He said, "God is almighty." If he is on our side, we can conquer anybody and anything. That is the other spirit God is looking for in his children today. 36:37 You and I are not facing human giants. You and I are facing problems, temptations, which are like huge giants. Anger, for example, is a big giant that has ruled your life for so many years. 37:00 He says, like a Goliath that says, "You'll never conquer me." You can go to any number of meetings, but you won't conquer me. We say, "Yeah, that's right. Oh, I can't conquer that." God is very sad. Just like it says, he had grieved his heart. 37:16 He's sorry that he made such people even born again. They say, "They are married to Christ and bring such dishonor to the name of Christ." They say, "They are married to Christ and bring such dishonor to the name of Christ." 37:24 They say, "They are married to Christ and bring such dishonor to the name of Christ." They say, "They are saying that they are married to Christ and bring such dishonor to the name of Christ." They say, "They are saying that they are married to Christ and bring such dishonor to the name of Christ." 37:34 They say, "They are saying that they are married to Christ and bring such dishonor to the name of Christ." Because they feel even Almighty God cannot overcome this joy. They say, "They are married to Christ and bring such dishonor to the name of Christ and bring such dishonor to the name of Christ and bring such dishonor to the name of Christ and bring such dishonor to the name of Christ." 37:57 And even older people. "Oh, the sexual lust is so strong." "Oh, I can't overcome it. I can't overcome it." "Are you born again?" "Yes, I am born again." "But even God can't help me in this." 38:19 That is exactly what the 600,000 people say. Even God cannot help me to overcome these joy. God said, "Your punishment will be, you will never conquer those joy. So the Lord says, "Look at that other fellow." "Look at that other young fellow who has got the same passions you have." 38:43 "How did he conquer it?" How did he conquer it? He had another spirit. A spirit of faith that said, "My God is more powerful than my lust." It's faith. 39:06 Without faith, the Bible says, "It is impossible to please God." That faith even the devils have. Heart faith is that which faces the problem. Faces the temptation. And says, "By God's grace, I can overcome it." Where sin abounded, grace abounded even more, it says in Romans 5. 39:31 Let me ask you, if I were to give you a multiple choice question now. Is sin, the word most powerful sin? Is that powerful or is God's grace powerful? 39:53 Only two answers, take the right one. Some will say, "Grace is more powerful." Or sin is more powerful. I am sure all of you will take the right answer, "Grace is more powerful." 40:19 But what does your daily life demonstrate? Whatever you may think on the paper, your life demonstrates sin is more powerful. Even the demons will take, "Grace is more powerful than sin." 40:42 It's not a question of your knowing it in your head. Faith is in the heart. I know my God is almighty. No sin can stand before him. Think of some fierce alciation dog, meaning you're on the road. 41:04 I would like to run the other way. And if two of them come, I would run. But think if I have with me some big lion, who is my friend and my pet with me. 41:26 And these, let ten of these alciations come. When I tell this lion, just give them one roar, that's enough. One roar. These fellows, these dogs, they came between their legs and they'd be running. 41:50 I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid. We say, "Jesus is all powerful." He can do all things. He can do all things. But when we face some situations, some problems in your office, I'm not preaching what I've not practiced. 42:10 He can do all things in your life. He can do all things. He can do all things. He can do all things. I worked in the military for eleven years. I worked in the military for eleven years. It's not easy to be a Christian in the military. 42:21 But God is powerful enough to help us to be true. You want to please God. When I joined the military, I looked for promotion. When I was born again, I stopped looking for promotion. 42:41 I wanted to please God. So, I would stand up to my senior officers and say, "I'm sorry sir. I'm a Christian. I can't do that." They would write some bad report about me. I won't get a promotion. But God gave me a bigger promotion than all that. He called me to his service. 43:06 Is there anything bigger than that? You honor God. He'll honor you. Remember one thing, my brother, sister. Let the whole world turn against you. If God is on your side, you will overcome. 43:29 You must have that faith. That's the thing that delights God. But there was a Joshua and Caleb who believed that I am more powerful than those giants. Is that such a big thing? Was it such a big thing that Joshua and Caleb believed that Almighty God is more powerful than these nine foot giants? 43:55 Is it such a big thing for you to believe that Almighty God can help you to overcome that anger or that lust? 44:17 Even if everybody in your home is a sinner, that you can be a light in the midst of that home. The first step is to believe that you can live a heavenly life on this earth. 44:39 The first step is to believe that you can live a heavenly life on this earth. That's not such a difficult thing to believe. That's not such a difficult thing to believe. It's almost like asking a mathematical question. Is the number hundred thousand greater than the number one? 44:59 Do you want to fast and pray to find the answer to that one? Is one thousand greater than the number one? I think even my three year old grandson knows the answer to that one. 45:22 Is God greater than anything? Anything, anything. Greater than all the enemies of Christians. Physical enemies. Those who persecute Christians. 45:43 Those who, the lust that fight against us. Is God Almighty greater than all the millions and millions and millions of demons who try to trouble us? Is God greater than all those who accuse us? Is God greater than all those who accuse us? 46:07 I have served the Lord for 43 years now, full time. And every year I am a happier man than the previous year. Saving the Lord is the most wonderful thing you can ever do on this earth. There is nothing to equal it. 46:30 Even if somebody were to give me the Nobel Prize, I say no, let me serve the Lord, that's much better. This is the greatest thing of all. But when we serve the Lord, the more faithfully you serve the Lord, the devil is angry with you. 46:49 His anger increases. I want the devil to be more and more angry with me every year. That's a good sign, that means I am serving the Lord. If the devil is less and less angry with you, brother, sister, something wrong with you. 47:06 The more the devil is angry with me, the more he troubles me. He raises up accusers to tell false stories about me. Just like God works through human beings, the devil also works through human beings. 47:36 So, in these 43 years, I have faced so many false accusations and charges. About 47 years ago, there was a very godly man who lived in this city. 48:04 His name was Brother Bakhtsingar. His name was Brother Bakhtsingar. His name was Brother Bakhtsingar.

There is a godless old priest there called Eli. God is disappointed with him. He is disappointed with his children. 52:10 But God finds one little boy's son. It could be a little boy. Sometimes God has got delighted. I have seen some homes where the little child is more God-fearing than the parents. I have seen some homes where the little child is more God-fearing than the parents. 52:28 One of the wonderful things that encourages me in the Bible is this. When there is evil, evil, evil everywhere, God will find one person. God selects a man as Saul. He makes him a king. In a few years, he is proud and haughty. 52:46 God says, I have got to get rid of him. All Israel is following him. But God finds one young man called David. 53:07 And he starts again. This is the story of the Bible. All truth. Then after David's time, Solomon comes again. They go as David. And you read the history of Israel. This is up and down and up and down. In a while, he'll find a man like Elijah. 53:31 And Elijah, his servant, will follow in his footsteps. That must have been brought such light in God's heart. That must have been brought such light in God's heart. That must have been brought such light in God's heart. 53:45 That must have been brought such light in God's heart. That must have been brought such light in God's heart. That must have been brought such light in God's heart. Now I found a prophet. Another prophet who will please understudy and grow up to be a prophet. 53:54 And then Elisha has a junior helping him called Gahazi. He will become a prophet. He will become a prophet. No! He goes after money. Not so much. That's why God. Can you see the disappointment in God's heart? Time after time after time after time. 54:15 The whole nation of Judah finally goes to Babylon. They're all happy to live in that worldly city. Nobody wants to come back to Jerusalem. God finds a few. Agai. 54:35 Zachariah. Joshua the High Priest. Zachariah. Jerubbabel. Ezra. Like that if you come back. What I want to say is. The whole history of the Old Testament. Is God doing something and being very soon thoroughly disappointed with his people. 54:54 God is doing something and being thoroughly disappointed with his people. But he finds a few. When you look at the history of Christianity in 2000 years. Right from the beginning God wanted Christians to demonstrate heaven on earth. 55:13 Look at the five churches in Revelation 2 and 3. He's going to be very soon. He's going to be very soon. He's going to be very soon. He's going to be very soon. He's going to be very soon. He's going to be very soon. He's going to be very soon. 55:23 He's going to be very soon. And it's like that in 2009. He's going to be very soon. Around the world. God looks. Hypocrites. Dishonestity. Dishonestity. Love of money. Pride. Fighting. Falling. Immorality. And western countries. 55:47 Even divorced people are pastors now. God looks at all these. These are supposed to be the bride of my son. Who will stand up for him. I believe there's tremendous sorrow in God's heart. But here and there. 56:07 God finds delight in one or two who stand up for him. Who will say, Lord, I will prove by my life. That I can live a heavenly life on this earth. Will you be one of those who brings the life to God's heart. 56:32 You can be. You can be. You can be. You can be. Even if you're an unknown person. That's correct. That's correct. While we bow our heads in prayer. I want to encourage you. To say, Lord. I'm weak. 56:52 But I want to be that person. I want to trust you. I want to trust you. I want to be a testimony for you. To live a heavenly life in my surroundings. Even though there's darkness all around me. In my home. In my office. 57:07 Everywhere. Lord, make me like a light. I want to make me like a light. Fill me with the Holy Spirit. Fill me with the Holy Spirit. Thank you for your sake. I want to trust you. To live a heavenly life in my surroundings. 57:15 Even though there's darkness all around me. Even though there's darkness all around me. In my home. In my office. Everywhere. To live a heavenly life in my surroundings. Even though there's darkness all around me. In my house. 57:26 In my office. Everywhere. Lord, make me like a light. Pour the oil into my heart. That the light will burn. Fill me with the Holy Spirit. Fill me with the Holy Spirit. Thank you for hearing me. In Jesus name. Amen.
