it's the Ten
Commandments Weekend 2008:
00:01:01.35\00:01:03.95
the Constitution of Grace.
00:01:04.15\00:01:06.68
Welcome back to the
00:01:10.12\00:01:11.91
Ten Commandment Weekend
00:01:12.01\00:01:13.05
here at Three
Angels Broadcasting Network
00:01:13.15\00:01:15.93
in Southern Illinois.
00:01:15.96\00:01:17.26
Last night I heard
we had a storm, right?
00:01:17.36\00:01:19.57
And I had a fan that was blowing
00:01:19.77\00:01:22.26
and I didn't really hear
the storm, but I talked to some
00:01:22.36\00:01:24.48
people who slept in
tents out here and they said:
00:01:24.58\00:01:27.10
"Yes, it stormed and we felt
it too. We didn't just hear it
00:01:27.30\00:01:30.59
but we got some rain in. "
00:01:30.69\00:01:32.80
But you're still here. I noticed
they are still here and smiling.
00:01:33.00\00:01:35.51
But the Lord has blessed.
00:01:35.71\00:01:37.46
Could have been
a lot worse, huh?
00:01:37.56\00:01:39.19
The sun is shining
again today, so it's not only
00:01:39.29\00:01:41.64
the sun shining
outside, but mostly important
00:01:41.74\00:01:43.92
there is sunshine
in our hearts today.
00:01:44.16\00:01:46.56
And we're thankful for all the
audience that's here from around
00:01:47.27\00:01:50.06
the world. And for those of
you watching from many, many
00:01:50.17\00:01:52.80
countries around the
world, this is a great weekend.
00:01:52.91\00:01:55.43
We give God all the
honor, the glory, and the praise
00:01:55.63\00:01:58.73
and lift up high His Ten
Commandment law of grace.
00:01:58.83\00:02:03.82
Right now we're
going to have some music.
00:02:04.02\00:02:05.97
And after that
we're going to be here...
00:02:06.17\00:02:08.22
for those of you just joining
us we're actually here all day,
00:02:08.32\00:02:11.27
all afternoon, all evening...
and I mean we are just going to
00:02:11.47\00:02:13.82
have a great time. We think
it's just going to get better
00:02:13.92\00:02:16.27
and better and better. And we
believe that we are standing on
00:02:16.37\00:02:19.77
holy ground because how many
of you have felt the presence
00:02:19.88\00:02:22.85
of Jesus here? I
know I have for sure.
00:02:22.95\00:02:25.87
And if you haven't, you will
before the day's over. Right?
00:02:26.07\00:02:29.56
OK. I'm going to as my daughter
Melody Firestone to come out.
00:02:29.77\00:02:33.68
She's going to sing a
couple of songs for us, and
00:02:33.89\00:02:36.36
then after that we're
going to have Rudy out again.
00:02:36.46\00:02:40.14
Rudy Micelli.
00:02:40.35\00:02:41.66
And so I thank God for those
who have the gift of music,
00:02:41.86\00:02:46.40
the gift of speaking, and those
that are willing to use their
00:02:46.50\00:02:49.26
talents for the Lord.
And when Melody was born,
00:02:49.36\00:02:52.79
we thought she
was going to be a boy.
00:02:52.99\00:02:55.45
And back then they didn't do
the... what do you call that?
00:02:55.65\00:02:58.54
Ultrasound. Ultrasounds.
00:02:58.64\00:03:00.27
The doctor says... I
said: "Can you tell? "
00:03:00.41\00:03:02.90
He said: "Well, usually I
can tell by the heartbeat.
00:03:03.00\00:03:05.81
It's going to be a boy. "
00:03:06.01\00:03:07.10
So I went that morning...
she was taken Cesarean...
00:03:07.30\00:03:09.95
so I went that morning, got
a little blue baseball suit.
00:03:10.05\00:03:12.61
Took it to the hospital.
00:03:12.81\00:03:14.48
A nurse greeted me and said:
"Do you want to come upstairs
00:03:14.68\00:03:18.36
and see your baby girl? "
00:03:18.46\00:03:19.69
And I said: "What? " And
she said: "A baby girl. "
00:03:19.89\00:03:22.37
So I went upstairs and I
said: "We didn't have a name. "
00:03:22.47\00:03:25.57
I asked her mother... "We
didn't have a name picked out. "
00:03:25.68\00:03:29.30
And she said: "Well,
let's pray about it overnight. "
00:03:29.40\00:03:31.11
And so the next morning she
said: "I think we should name
00:03:31.41\00:03:34.74
her Melody as in
music. Dedicate her to God. "
00:03:34.84\00:03:37.47
Melody Dawn - the dawn
of new music in our family.
00:03:37.67\00:03:41.83
And so that's
how she got her name.
00:03:42.03\00:03:44.29
And when she was six weeks old
we dedicated her to the Lord.
00:03:44.49\00:03:47.82
And we said: "Lord, we'll raise
her in an atmosphere free of
00:03:48.03\00:03:51.53
any other type of music other
than music that will give honor
00:03:51.64\00:03:54.39
and glory to You. And we
ask that you give her a desire
00:03:54.49\00:03:57.68
to sing for You. " And
so, Melody, I'm thankful that
00:03:57.78\00:04:00.41
you are doing
just that for Jesus.
00:04:00.61\00:04:03.24
Amen.
00:04:03.27\00:04:04.61
Desperately, she pushed her way
00:04:27.27\00:04:32.55
through the crowd.
00:04:32.65\00:04:35.07
They were crushing her now.
00:04:35.27\00:04:38.87
They were crying aloud,
00:04:39.17\00:04:43.69
but she didn't care.
00:04:43.89\00:04:47.00
It was her only hope.
00:04:47.20\00:04:51.95
This was an issue of life,
00:04:52.15\00:04:55.81
and she could no longer cope.
00:04:56.01\00:05:01.34
If she'd ever be healed,
00:05:01.54\00:05:06.30
if she'd ever be whole,
00:05:06.50\00:05:10.48
then He was the one.
00:05:10.68\00:05:15.55
And she knew in her soul
00:05:15.75\00:05:20.31
she had to touch Him.
00:05:20.51\00:05:24.13
Oh, she said:
"I can touch Him. "
00:05:24.96\00:05:30.93
He is here within my reach.
00:05:31.33\00:05:35.49
"I can touch Him. "
00:05:35.69\00:05:39.40
Oh, I feel the healing flow.
00:05:39.60\00:05:43.95
My faith will make me whole.
00:05:44.15\00:05:48.73
"It is Jesus,
00:05:48.93\00:05:53.05
and I can touch Him. "
00:05:53.25\00:05:54.22
There comes a time
00:06:03.86\00:06:07.10
when you give all you can give.
00:06:07.30\00:06:12.21
You've exhausted your mind;
00:06:13.10\00:06:16.89
you don't think you can live.
00:06:17.09\00:06:21.45
Tormented by fear,
00:06:21.65\00:06:25.03
you face the unknown.
00:06:25.23\00:06:30.27
People are there,
00:06:30.47\00:06:32.99
yet you feel all alone.
00:06:33.19\00:06:38.61
Then you reach out in faith
00:06:39.45\00:06:42.92
and confess once again
00:06:43.12\00:06:48.06
"Jesus is here,
00:06:48.26\00:06:52.36
and there's healing in Him. "
00:06:52.56\00:06:57.19
You can touch Him.
00:06:58.25\00:07:01.92
You can touch Him.
00:07:03.00\00:07:08.50
He is here within your reach.
00:07:08.90\00:07:12.95
You can touch Him.
00:07:13.15\00:07:17.00
Oh, just feel the healing flow.
00:07:17.20\00:07:21.74
Your faith will make you whole.
00:07:21.94\00:07:26.27
It is Jesus
00:07:26.47\00:07:30.62
and you can touch Him.
00:07:30.82\00:07:36.00
Oh, we can touch Him.
00:07:38.52\00:07:43.06
He is here within our reach.
00:07:43.26\00:07:47.19
We can touch Him.
00:07:47.50\00:07:50.76
Oh, I feel the healing flow.
00:07:50.96\00:07:55.36
My faith will make me whole.
00:07:55.57\00:08:00.03
It is Jesus
00:08:00.13\00:08:04.66
and we can touch Him.
00:08:04.86\00:08:09.40
It is Jesus,
00:08:10.17\00:08:15.25
it is Jesus,
00:08:15.55\00:08:20.02
and we can
00:08:20.32\00:08:24.25
touch Him.
00:08:25.62\00:08:30.12
Wand'ring in the wilderness
00:09:02.17\00:09:05.87
stumbling in the dark.
00:09:05.90\00:09:09.17
Life put me on a road I prayed
00:09:09.37\00:09:13.19
I'd never have to walk.
00:09:13.40\00:09:16.65
Helpless and uncertain,
00:09:17.21\00:09:20.69
staring at a wall...
00:09:20.89\00:09:24.37
I wondered where the Lord
00:09:24.58\00:09:27.60
was in it all.
00:09:27.80\00:09:31.74
But God said:
00:09:31.94\00:09:35.21
"I love you forever.
00:09:35.41\00:09:39.66
I will never leave you alone.
00:09:39.86\00:09:44.99
And days when
00:09:46.74\00:09:49.97
you feel your
heart can't take it,
00:09:50.17\00:09:54.46
I will be the One
to make you strong.
00:09:54.66\00:10:00.66
And I'll be there to help you
00:10:01.57\00:10:04.95
carry on.
00:10:05.15\00:10:08.81
I will never leave you
00:10:09.01\00:10:12.79
alone. "
00:10:13.00\00:10:17.16
Picking up the pieces
00:10:27.75\00:10:31.23
of dreams that had to die.
00:10:31.43\00:10:34.38
Trying hard to understand
00:10:35.21\00:10:38.95
and not to question why.
00:10:39.15\00:10:42.01
It took a while to realize
00:10:42.31\00:10:46.21
what now I clearly see:
00:10:46.41\00:10:49.73
that holding on to Him
00:10:49.93\00:10:52.66
meant letting go of me.
00:10:52.76\00:10:57.16
And God said:
00:10:57.36\00:11:00.67
"I love you forever.
00:11:00.87\00:11:05.16
I will never leave you alone.
00:11:05.39\00:11:10.54
And days when
00:11:12.38\00:11:15.39
you feel your
heart can't take it,
00:11:15.59\00:11:19.51
I will be the One
to make you strong.
00:11:20.39\00:11:26.38
And I'll be there to help you
00:11:27.24\00:11:30.30
carry on.
00:11:30.50\00:11:34.33
I will never leave you
00:11:34.53\00:11:38.50
alone. "
00:11:38.70\00:11:42.84
And God said:
00:11:55.05\00:11:58.32
"I love you forever.
00:11:58.62\00:12:02.90
I will never leave you alone.
00:12:03.10\00:12:08.47
And days when
00:12:09.94\00:12:13.29
you feel your
heart can't take it,
00:12:13.49\00:12:17.45
I will be the One
to make you strong.
00:12:17.75\00:12:23.73
And I'll be there to help you
00:12:24.65\00:12:28.35
carry on.
00:12:28.56\00:12:32.02
I will never leave you
00:12:32.22\00:12:36.01
alone,
00:12:36.41\00:12:42.31
I will never leave you
00:12:43.52\00:12:49.26
alone. "
00:12:49.86\00:12:55.86
Amen.
00:13:10.96\00:13:13.40
Wherever it may lead me,
00:13:34.36\00:13:40.27
I want to follow You.
00:13:40.98\00:13:46.97
Through the
valley of the shadows,
00:13:47.27\00:13:52.59
or through the
mountains' breathless view.
00:13:53.09\00:13:59.02
If the crowds
applaud my progress,
00:13:59.48\00:14:04.52
or if they never know my name.
00:14:05.02\00:14:10.93
I will follow You
00:14:11.90\00:14:17.81
just the same.
00:14:18.64\00:14:23.17
If you lead me
through the desert
00:14:23.39\00:14:28.96
where Your voice seems far away,
00:14:29.86\00:14:35.80
I will still
believe You love me.
00:14:36.10\00:14:41.30
I will listen, and I will pray.
00:14:41.60\00:14:46.97
For if the
thousands throng around me
00:14:47.37\00:14:52.57
or if I am
00:14:52.87\00:14:55.11
the critic's choice,
00:14:55.22\00:14:59.62
I will need to know
00:14:59.82\00:15:05.80
Your still, small voice.
00:15:07.29\00:15:11.96
Lord, I want to be Your servant,
00:15:12.26\00:15:17.61
though I don't always know how.
00:15:18.01\00:15:23.57
But You promised
to be with me, Lord,
00:15:23.87\00:15:29.56
I need You near me now.
00:15:29.86\00:15:34.75
So let me see You
00:15:35.05\00:15:38.14
in each moment, day by day
00:15:38.34\00:15:42.86
and week by week.
00:15:43.16\00:15:49.11
And I will follow You
00:15:49.69\00:15:55.60
wherever it
00:15:55.90\00:16:01.56
may lead.
00:16:01.86\00:16:07.81
Lord, I will follow You
00:16:08.72\00:16:14.70
wherever it
00:16:17.28\00:16:22.85
may
00:16:23.05\00:16:25.25
lead.
00:16:25.75\00:16:31.70
It's... it's the least
that I can do, you know,
00:16:54.03\00:16:57.08
through the difficulties of
a valley or through the beauty
00:16:57.18\00:16:59.87
of mountains to follow
Him faithfully till the end.
00:16:59.97\00:17:02.65
You know why? Because
He did that first for me.
00:17:02.85\00:17:05.44
He went through it all.
00:17:05.64\00:17:07.29
Some of you know my life
testimony and you know that
00:17:07.49\00:17:10.41
how truthful it is when I say
that were it not for His grace
00:17:10.51\00:17:14.32
I would not be here today.
00:17:14.52\00:17:16.86
I would not be able to be
testifying of His salvation,
00:17:17.07\00:17:19.31
of His mercy, and of His love.
00:17:19.51\00:17:21.77
He has saved me. He has
brought me from the darkness
00:17:22.07\00:17:25.22
into His glorious light.
And I'm so thankful for Him.
00:17:25.52\00:17:29.24
Time measured out my days.
00:17:37.54\00:17:43.53
Life carried me along.
00:17:44.64\00:17:50.53
Down in my soul, I yearned
00:17:51.85\00:17:56.25
to follow God
00:17:56.36\00:17:59.13
but knew I'd never be so strong.
00:17:59.44\00:18:05.39
I looked hard at this world
00:18:05.69\00:18:09.24
to learn how heaven
00:18:09.44\00:18:13.49
could be gained.
00:18:13.80\00:18:17.21
Just to end where I began...
00:18:17.97\00:18:22.98
where human effort
00:18:23.28\00:18:25.85
is all in vain.
00:18:26.15\00:18:32.05
Were it not
00:18:32.35\00:18:36.10
for grace,
00:18:36.40\00:18:39.29
I can tell you where I'd be.
00:18:40.42\00:18:46.35
Wand'ring down
some pointless road
00:18:46.65\00:18:51.88
to nowhere
00:18:52.18\00:18:53.77
with my salvation up to me.
00:18:53.97\00:18:59.49
I know how that would go.
00:18:59.79\00:19:04.16
The battles I would face.
00:19:06.00\00:19:11.97
Forever running
00:19:12.53\00:19:15.72
but losing the race...
00:19:15.92\00:19:19.01
were it not for grace.
00:19:19.31\00:19:25.23
So here is all my praise
00:19:29.21\00:19:35.19
expressed with all my heart.
00:19:36.42\00:19:42.34
Offered to this
friend who took my place
00:19:43.96\00:19:49.95
and ran this course
I could not even start.
00:19:50.35\00:19:56.31
And when He saw in full
00:19:56.61\00:20:00.25
just how much His love
00:20:00.45\00:20:04.49
would cost,
00:20:04.70\00:20:07.16
He still went the final line
00:20:07.46\00:20:11.00
between me and heaven
00:20:11.20\00:20:13.88
so I would not be lost.
00:20:14.18\00:20:20.14
Were it not for grace
00:20:21.46\00:20:27.43
oh, I can tell you where
00:20:28.20\00:20:32.05
I'd be.
00:20:32.15\00:20:34.63
Wand'ring down some
pointless road to nowhere
00:20:34.93\00:20:40.69
with my salvation up to me.
00:20:40.99\00:20:46.15
And I know how that would go.
00:20:46.25\00:20:51.19
All the battles I would face.
00:20:51.49\00:20:57.45
Forever running
00:20:57.85\00:21:01.87
but losing the race...
00:21:02.07\00:21:05.09
were it not for grace.
00:21:05.39\00:21:11.35
Forever running
00:21:12.15\00:21:15.81
but losing the race...
00:21:16.68\00:21:19.95
were it not for
00:21:20.25\00:21:26.17
grace.
00:21:27.05\00:21:32.95
Amen. Thank
you, Rudy. Beautiful!
00:21:44.01\00:21:45.97
Next we are going
to have Nadean Edwards,
00:21:46.27\00:21:49.29
and after that we are
going to have Emily Felts-Jones.
00:21:49.69\00:21:52.56
And once again, I just want
to say I appreciate their music.
00:21:52.76\00:21:55.05
their love for
Jesus, and the talent.
00:21:55.25\00:21:57.77
And also for Derrick...
00:21:57.97\00:22:01.82
I started to say Darrell, but
I wouldn't want to call you that
00:22:02.02\00:22:04.54
because we'll
think of Darrell Marshall
00:22:04.65\00:22:06.35
and then we'll all laugh
when we think about that.
00:22:06.55\00:22:08.94
Now we'll... but Derrick,
you have a wonderful gift
00:22:09.14\00:22:12.75
that God has given you
- not only in your fingers
00:22:12.85\00:22:15.37
but in your smile. And
we get to talk a little bit
00:22:15.47\00:22:17.79
and get to know these folk,
and they are wonderful people -
00:22:17.99\00:22:20.57
both of you - and
we're so thankful.
00:22:20.77\00:22:22.59
And they'll be
followed immediately
00:22:22.69\00:22:24.17
by Emily Felts-Jones.
00:22:24.27\00:22:26.31
In the beginning...
00:22:44.53\00:22:47.16
nothing there.
00:22:47.56\00:22:50.69
He just called forth this world;
00:22:50.99\00:22:54.08
He called it out of nowhere.
00:22:54.28\00:22:58.34
He just spoke and it was done.
00:22:58.64\00:23:03.19
Now, that's power!
00:23:05.57\00:23:10.52
He was there at the end;
00:23:13.10\00:23:16.90
He'll be there at the end.
00:23:17.20\00:23:21.09
And through this passage of time
00:23:21.39\00:23:24.78
He'll show His power to man.
00:23:24.98\00:23:29.04
The same God who changed
00:23:29.34\00:23:32.99
the darkness to light
00:23:33.19\00:23:35.75
is the same God today.
00:23:35.95\00:23:39.31
Same power, same might.
00:23:39.51\00:23:43.49
He is God
00:23:43.69\00:23:48.21
all by Himself.
00:23:48.51\00:23:52.00
He rules supreme;
00:23:52.30\00:23:55.38
He needs no one else.
00:23:55.68\00:23:58.90
All heaven and earth
00:23:59.20\00:24:02.89
is at His command.
00:24:03.20\00:24:06.39
All power is in
00:24:06.69\00:24:10.92
His hands.
00:24:11.22\00:24:17.14
He's here again...
00:24:26.85\00:24:29.78
virgin birth.
00:24:30.08\00:24:33.00
A miracle in itself,
00:24:33.30\00:24:35.79
He's now Lord of the earth.
00:24:36.09\00:24:40.24
He was man yet He was God,
00:24:40.44\00:24:45.69
now... that's power!
00:24:46.73\00:24:51.52
He turned water into wine,
00:24:53.74\00:24:57.77
raised the lame from his bed,
00:24:58.07\00:25:01.97
with 5 loaves and 2 fishes
00:25:02.27\00:25:05.30
thousands were fed.
00:25:05.61\00:25:08.71
Yes, He still had that power
00:25:08.81\00:25:11.68
when He said:
"Lazarus, come forth! "
00:25:11.98\00:25:15.45
If He didn't call him by name,
00:25:15.75\00:25:18.82
all the dead would have walked.
00:25:19.12\00:25:23.37
He is God
00:25:23.67\00:25:27.15
all by Himself.
00:25:27.45\00:25:30.99
He rules supreme;
00:25:31.29\00:25:34.54
He needs no one else.
00:25:34.84\00:25:37.65
All heaven and
earth is at His command,
00:25:38.15\00:25:44.14
All power is in
00:25:44.96\00:25:48.84
His hands.
00:25:49.14\00:25:52.30
But He held back that power
00:25:52.50\00:25:55.88
for my sins and yours.
00:25:56.18\00:25:59.17
He didn't have
to suffer and die;
00:25:59.37\00:26:02.95
He could have
jumped off that cross.
00:26:03.18\00:26:06.32
He could have
called 10,000 angels
00:26:06.53\00:26:10.68
to wipe out this world.
00:26:10.88\00:26:13.86
Because He still
had that power...
00:26:14.17\00:26:17.77
that unchanging power,
00:26:18.07\00:26:21.17
that life-saving power,
00:26:21.47\00:26:24.53
that almighty power.
00:26:24.83\00:26:30.20
He is
00:26:30.51\00:26:34.88
God
00:26:35.18\00:26:38.55
all by Himself.
00:26:38.85\00:26:42.13
He rules supreme;
00:26:42.43\00:26:45.27
He needs no one else.
00:26:45.57\00:26:48.66
All heaven and earth
00:26:48.96\00:26:52.27
is at His command.
00:26:52.57\00:26:57.61
All power
00:26:59.76\00:27:03.45
is in
00:27:03.75\00:27:07.96
His hands.
00:27:08.26\00:27:14.24
It's all in His
00:27:17.45\00:27:20.96
hands.
00:27:21.26\00:27:27.23
We're having church
this morning, aren't we?
00:27:38.38\00:27:40.50
Amen.
00:27:40.70\00:27:41.72
That's
beautiful, just beautiful!
00:27:41.83\00:27:43.59
And you know, I just want you
to kind of use your imaginations
00:27:43.89\00:27:46.11
this morning. Imagine that I
have a gospel choir behind me
00:27:46.31\00:27:50.70
and I've got someone over here
playing the organ - preferably
00:27:50.91\00:27:53.95
a B3. I know Donna could
have done that for me, but...
00:27:54.05\00:27:57.27
But we are going to
manage without her this morning
00:27:58.73\00:28:01.16
because there is a river
00:28:01.36\00:28:05.32
that flows for every one of us.
00:28:05.52\00:28:08.14
And you know, soon and
very soon we're going to meet at
00:28:09.41\00:28:12.42
that river, aren't we?
00:28:12.52\00:28:13.58
Where that
beautiful, cleansing, healing
00:28:15.91\00:28:19.55
flood pours out
for you and for me.
00:28:19.66\00:28:21.91
"There is a River. "
00:28:22.21\00:28:24.51
There is a river
00:28:34.10\00:28:36.80
that flows for me.
00:28:37.01\00:28:41.24
Streaming down
00:28:42.35\00:28:44.60
from the Mount of Calvary.
00:28:44.81\00:28:49.18
Healing water...
00:28:50.16\00:28:52.83
spilling over, running free.
00:28:53.03\00:28:57.56
There is a river
00:28:57.76\00:29:00.27
that flows for me.
00:29:00.48\00:29:04.38
There is a river
00:29:05.88\00:29:07.97
that flows for me.
00:29:08.27\00:29:13.08
Streaming down
00:29:13.38\00:29:15.90
from the Mount of Calvary.
00:29:16.10\00:29:20.41
Healing water...
00:29:21.22\00:29:23.36
spilling over, running free.
00:29:23.56\00:29:28.51
There is a river
00:29:28.72\00:29:31.43
that flows for me.
00:29:31.63\00:29:35.57
There is a river
00:29:36.87\00:29:38.74
that flows for me.
00:29:38.94\00:29:43.81
And I will drink
00:29:44.11\00:29:46.80
of that flood eternally.
00:29:47.00\00:29:51.20
My sins are buried there
00:29:51.50\00:29:54.62
and carried to the sea.
00:29:54.92\00:29:59.34
There is a river
that flows for me.
00:29:59.64\00:30:05.59
Now you know this
part, sing it with me.
00:30:05.69\00:30:07.31
Yes, we'll gather
00:30:08.70\00:30:11.46
at the river,
00:30:11.56\00:30:15.28
the beautiful, the beautiful
00:30:15.48\00:30:19.84
river.
00:30:19.94\00:30:23.71
Gather with the saints
00:30:23.92\00:30:27.00
at the river
00:30:27.10\00:30:30.68
that flows by the throne of God.
00:30:30.88\00:30:36.83
Healing water...
00:30:38.91\00:30:40.41
spilling over, running free.
00:30:40.61\00:30:45.67
There is a river
00:30:45.87\00:30:48.41
that flows for me.
00:30:48.61\00:30:52.16
Healing water...
00:30:54.28\00:30:55.77
spilling over, running free.
00:30:56.07\00:31:00.85
There is a river
00:31:01.05\00:31:04.10
that flows for me...
00:31:04.30\00:31:10.30
and you! Hallelujah!
00:31:10.60\00:31:12.51
Thank you, Emily.
00:31:18.80\00:31:20.22
We are going to have
Jim and Pam Rhodes back out
00:31:20.42\00:31:23.44
right now. Have you been
blessed by their music, folks?
00:31:23.54\00:31:25.63
Amen. And they're great people.
00:31:25.93\00:31:27.89
They love Jesus, and they're
a lot of fun to be around.
00:31:28.09\00:31:30.63
Jim... You never know what
instrument he's going to play,
00:31:30.93\00:31:34.49
and sometimes he plays
several at the same time.
00:31:34.59\00:31:37.06
That's my favorite. I'm
just going to tell you, Jim,
00:31:37.26\00:31:39.37
when you're playing... I
like it when you've got the...
00:31:39.47\00:31:41.18
You used to come to 3ABN
and you had like the keyboard
00:31:41.28\00:31:44.80
over here, the piano here.
00:31:44.90\00:31:46.26
I don't know what all
the different instruments...
00:31:46.46\00:31:48.22
but he plays them all well.
00:31:48.32\00:31:49.75
I mean, that's just
almost not fair, you know!
00:31:49.95\00:31:52.41
But we do appreciate
you guys and love you.
00:31:52.61\00:31:55.48
And thank you for your support
and what you do for Jesus
00:31:55.68\00:31:59.55
and giving of your talents
because we know that it's not
00:31:59.75\00:32:02.55
always easy to travel and
get up and sing in front of...
00:32:02.65\00:32:05.36
And I don't want you to be
nervous thinking about that
00:32:05.56\00:32:07.17
the whole world... there's
people around the world watching
00:32:07.27\00:32:09.29
and everything. And it's a...
it's a live program and should
00:32:09.39\00:32:12.24
you know... Well, anyway, I
don't want to get you nervous
00:32:12.34\00:32:14.69
or anything... But we have
a lot of fun back and forth
00:32:14.79\00:32:20.23
and they're pros so they
don't get nervous. Do you?
00:32:20.33\00:32:22.68
I'm shaking in my boots.
00:32:22.98\00:32:24.77
She says she's shaking in
her... No, you're not - 'cause
00:32:24.87\00:32:27.40
God has given you a
peace - that's right...
00:32:27.50\00:32:29.90
And you've got a husband
here who's going to support you
00:32:30.00\00:32:32.03
tremendously, no...
And Donna Klein is...
00:32:32.13\00:32:33.71
And Donna's over here too?
00:32:33.83\00:32:35.73
All right! Well
that makes the team.
00:32:35.83\00:32:37.13
And then right after that
I think we're going to have
00:32:37.33\00:32:39.28
Nadean maybe come
back and do one more song.
00:32:39.48\00:32:41.58
Footsteps walkin' with me,
00:32:51.61\00:32:55.48
footsteps I cannot see.
00:32:55.68\00:32:59.02
But every move I
make and every step I take
00:32:59.13\00:33:02.81
I know they're there for me.
00:33:03.01\00:33:06.85
They walk with me all the way,
00:33:07.15\00:33:10.68
beside me day by day.
00:33:10.88\00:33:14.65
Through good and bad,
through happy and sad,
00:33:14.85\00:33:18.70
those footsteps won't go away.
00:33:18.90\00:33:22.54
I'll never walk in life alone
00:33:22.74\00:33:26.42
there'll always
be someone there.
00:33:26.62\00:33:30.41
I know He won't let me down,
00:33:30.61\00:33:33.82
He's with me everywhere.
00:33:34.02\00:33:38.34
The special
things in life I've done
00:33:38.54\00:33:42.03
have been
through Him and His love.
00:33:42.23\00:33:45.89
I've been
blessed in so many ways
00:33:46.09\00:33:50.17
thanks to the Lord above.
00:33:50.37\00:33:53.92
Footsteps walkin' with me,
00:33:54.12\00:33:57.48
footsteps I cannot see.
00:33:57.68\00:34:01.41
But every move I
make and every step I take
00:34:01.61\00:34:05.46
I know they're there for me.
00:34:05.66\00:34:09.41
They walk with me all the way,
00:34:09.65\00:34:13.44
beside me day by day.
00:34:13.64\00:34:17.07
In good and bad,
through happy and sad,
00:34:17.27\00:34:21.28
those footsteps won't go away.
00:34:21.48\00:34:24.64
I think that my
life's been planned
00:34:33.12\00:34:36.84
by the One who's guiding me.
00:34:37.04\00:34:40.59
When I'm led by the hand
00:34:40.80\00:34:44.43
of someone I can't see.
00:34:44.63\00:34:48.47
I'm not always sure where to go,
00:34:48.67\00:34:52.05
but that's when
I follow His lead.
00:34:52.25\00:34:56.41
I know that the
pathway that He shows
00:34:56.61\00:35:00.25
will help me to succeed.
00:35:00.45\00:35:03.98
Footsteps walkin' with me,
00:35:04.60\00:35:08.10
footsteps I cannot see.
00:35:08.30\00:35:11.78
Every move I make
and every step I take
00:35:11.98\00:35:15.90
I know they're there for me.
00:35:16.10\00:35:19.76
They walk with me all the way,
00:35:19.96\00:35:23.69
beside me day by day.
00:35:23.89\00:35:27.41
Through good and bad,
through happy and sad,
00:35:27.61\00:35:31.53
those footsteps won't go away.
00:35:31.73\00:35:35.04
Through good and bad,
through happy and sad,
00:35:35.24\00:35:39.23
by my side they will stay.
00:35:39.43\00:35:43.72
God bless you. Thank you.
00:35:51.34\00:35:52.90
You know, many of you have
asked if Jimmy was going to play
00:35:58.14\00:36:00.96
his trombone. And he's
going to play one trombone
00:36:01.06\00:36:05.07
but he's actually playing three.
00:36:05.27\00:36:08.14
So he and Donna have worked
up this little medley of songs,
00:36:08.34\00:36:12.06
and I believe you call
it "The Heart Medley. "
00:36:12.26\00:36:14.77
Yes. Thank you.
00:36:14.97\00:36:17.72
In my moments of fear
00:38:43.89\00:38:49.89
through every pain, every tear,
00:38:50.19\00:38:55.58
there's a God
00:38:55.88\00:39:00.69
who's been faithful to me.
00:39:00.99\00:39:06.52
When my strength
00:39:07.02\00:39:10.64
was all gone,
00:39:10.84\00:39:12.98
when my heart had no song,
00:39:13.19\00:39:18.62
still in love
00:39:18.92\00:39:21.73
He's proved faithful to me.
00:39:21.93\00:39:27.92
Every word He's promised
00:39:29.48\00:39:34.49
is true.
00:39:34.79\00:39:37.89
And what I
thought was impossible
00:39:38.19\00:39:43.64
I've seen my God do.
00:39:44.04\00:39:49.96
He's been
00:39:53.44\00:39:57.45
faithful,
00:39:57.65\00:40:00.36
faithful to me.
00:40:00.56\00:40:06.36
Looking back
00:40:06.66\00:40:08.86
His love and mercy I see.
00:40:09.06\00:40:15.05
Though in my heart
00:40:15.65\00:40:18.49
I have questioned,
00:40:18.79\00:40:21.31
even failed to believe,
00:40:21.51\00:40:25.59
Yet He's been faithful,
00:40:25.79\00:40:29.00
faithful to me.
00:40:29.20\00:40:35.20
When my heart looked away
00:40:42.52\00:40:47.19
the many times I could not pray,
00:40:47.49\00:40:52.43
still in love,
He proved faithful
00:40:52.73\00:40:57.88
to me.
00:40:58.08\00:41:01.46
The days I spent so selfishly,
00:41:01.76\00:41:06.18
reaching out
for what pleased me,
00:41:06.48\00:41:11.31
even then,
00:41:11.51\00:41:14.02
He was faithful to me.
00:41:14.22\00:41:20.19
Every time I come back
00:41:21.22\00:41:26.11
to Him,
00:41:26.31\00:41:29.51
He is waiting
00:41:29.54\00:41:32.89
with open arms, and I see
00:41:33.09\00:41:36.84
once again.
00:41:36.94\00:41:42.84
He's been
00:41:45.63\00:41:49.44
faithful,
00:41:49.74\00:41:52.48
faithful to me.
00:41:52.73\00:41:58.54
Looking back
00:41:58.85\00:42:00.59
His love and mercy I see.
00:42:00.80\00:42:06.73
Though in my heart
00:42:07.48\00:42:10.13
I have questioned
00:42:10.33\00:42:12.45
even failed to believe,
00:42:12.65\00:42:16.45
yet He's been faithful,
00:42:16.49\00:42:19.21
faithful...
00:42:19.41\00:42:22.60
oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh...
00:42:22.90\00:42:26.04
Though in my heart
00:42:26.24\00:42:28.29
I have questioned
00:42:28.50\00:42:30.62
even failed to believe,
00:42:30.72\00:42:36.63
yet He's been faithful,
00:42:41.50\00:42:45.70
faithful
00:42:46.00\00:42:49.65
to me.
00:42:49.95\00:42:55.94
Faithful,
00:42:59.04\00:43:01.52
faithful
00:43:01.82\00:43:06.06
to me.
00:43:06.36\00:43:12.27
Thank you. What
a beautiful song!
00:43:20.82\00:43:22.56
Aren't you glad
God is faithful to us?
00:43:22.86\00:43:26.13
Amen. It's the one
thing that we can count on.
00:43:26.33\00:43:28.57
God is faithful. He really is.
00:43:28.87\00:43:31.44
And He has been faithful
to 3ABN from that first...
00:43:31.64\00:43:36.12
first beginning dream,
hasn't he, Danny? Oh, yes!
00:43:36.32\00:43:39.36
He has stood with this ministry
00:43:39.46\00:43:42.32
all the way.
00:43:42.53\00:43:43.88
And I told you the other night,
I listened again this week
00:43:44.08\00:43:47.41
to that 1985 message.
00:43:47.61\00:43:50.81
I think we ran some of
those. If you really need them,
00:43:51.01\00:43:54.37
go to the 3ABN booth
if you don't have it.
00:43:54.47\00:43:56.91
We'll get you one
some way or another.
00:43:57.11\00:43:59.24
But it's just so inspiring.
00:43:59.44\00:44:02.54
This was right when all these
miracles were happening, folks.
00:44:02.64\00:44:05.97
There was no land.
Nobody had anything out here.
00:44:06.17\00:44:09.02
And then a lady
gave two acres, right?
00:44:09.22\00:44:13.34
Right over here. I remember
I drove up out there when
00:44:13.64\00:44:15.59
you guys were
building this place.
00:44:15.69\00:44:18.10
And somehow I knew
God was going to do it.
00:44:19.23\00:44:23.29
It looked... it
looked impossible, but
00:44:23.49\00:44:25.85
just... there was
something that just let me know
00:44:25.95\00:44:30.32
that God was going
to do something here.
00:44:30.52\00:44:33.08
And He really, really has.
00:44:33.28\00:44:35.78
And folks, this...
You have stayed by.
00:44:36.08\00:44:38.67
This is the faithful... these
are the faithful right here.
00:44:38.77\00:44:41.06
We've got a lot of faithful
that are watching by television
00:44:41.16\00:44:43.39
as well. I had some
people this week tell me that
00:44:43.49\00:44:46.58
they just don't miss a
minute of watching 3ABN.
00:44:46.78\00:44:51.79
And this weekend they
were planning to get a cooler
00:44:51.99\00:44:57.58
and put it by their chair.
00:44:57.68\00:44:59.57
Well, as long as
there's water in it that's fine!
00:45:01.13\00:45:03.50
There was water! That's right!
And they had some watermelon
00:45:03.60\00:45:06.55
they were going to
put in there. That's good.
00:45:06.65\00:45:08.43
And they were not going to
move during the programming
00:45:08.64\00:45:11.70
here for the 3... for this week.
00:45:11.80\00:45:13.74
But you know, honestly, we got
a letter from a guy who had his
00:45:13.84\00:45:16.78
little cooler. It wasn't filled
with anything that we would
00:45:16.88\00:45:20.22
probably want to drink.
00:45:20.32\00:45:21.39
His was with alcohol.
00:45:21.49\00:45:22.74
But he loved television so much
00:45:22.94\00:45:25.70
that his dish got struck by
lightning and the only channel
00:45:25.80\00:45:28.86
he could get was 3ABN. Right.
00:45:28.96\00:45:31.31
So he would drink every night.
He said he would smoke two packs
00:45:31.34\00:45:34.26
of cigarettes and would...
would drink as many beers
00:45:34.36\00:45:38.86
as he could till... because
he said "I'm a couch potato.
00:45:38.96\00:45:41.06
I don't know what else to do. "
00:45:41.16\00:45:42.17
And he made fun
of all the speakers.
00:45:42.37\00:45:44.06
And I can't imagine
this... He was making fun of...
00:45:44.27\00:45:46.78
He said: "I'm making
fun of some of their hair. "
00:45:46.98\00:45:48.90
And Jim and I are to the
point there's so little here...
00:45:51.96\00:45:55.17
If you say hair, we feel good!
00:45:55.27\00:45:57.19
You know. He did say "hair. "
00:45:57.39\00:45:59.40
You know? That's right!
Somebody told me yesterday -
00:45:59.50\00:46:01.87
in fact, you remember, that
young preacher that was here -
00:46:02.07\00:46:05.58
he said you were
losing some of your hair.
00:46:05.78\00:46:07.73
And he said: "I hope
you don't get a comb over. "
00:46:07.93\00:46:10.23
Remember that?
00:46:10.33\00:46:11.61
Well anyway, this fellow that
was watching with the cooler?
00:46:11.91\00:46:15.31
Yeah. Six weeks later he
wrote us a letter and said
00:46:15.52\00:46:18.31
"Pray for me. I'm
going to an Adventist church
00:46:18.41\00:46:20.47
for my first time
tomorrow. " Isn't that amazing?
00:46:20.57\00:46:22.95
And he went to the
church. Yeah. Praise God!
00:46:23.05\00:46:24.69
Joined the church. So, he had
a cooler and it was all right.
00:46:24.79\00:46:28.75
So whatever
you're doing, it's OK.
00:46:28.95\00:46:30.99
Just keep watching 3ABN -
AMEN - and asking God what He
00:46:31.20\00:46:34.66
would have you to do. We
had a young man we interviewed
00:46:34.76\00:46:36.72
not long ago: Mark
Anthony from Las Vegas.
00:46:36.82\00:46:39.57
And... a chef. And
you should hear his story.
00:46:39.77\00:46:43.80
It's just unbelievable
00:46:43.90\00:46:45.33
how God has brought
him out of a sinful life
00:46:45.53\00:46:48.69
into a life of
victory through Jesus Christ.
00:46:48.89\00:46:51.97
And it really
began, folks, with 3ABN.
00:46:52.17\00:46:56.09
So God is blessing. He
is continuing to bless.
00:46:56.29\00:46:59.28
By the way, talking about hair,
Shelley was out the other day -
00:46:59.38\00:47:02.63
We have to still
talk about hair? -
00:47:02.73\00:47:04.25
Yeah, I thought
I'd throw this in.
00:47:04.35\00:47:05.51
And a lady told her...
Said: "Please tell Elder Gilley
00:47:06.73\00:47:10.00
he needs a new hair piece. "
00:47:10.10\00:47:11.56
And I... I told her... I said:
"If I were wearing a hair piece,
00:47:15.30\00:47:19.68
it wouldn't be one that's
bald right up here on top,
00:47:19.78\00:47:22.13
I guarantee you! "
00:47:22.23\00:47:23.58
That's one thing I love about
him being the president now
00:47:23.78\00:47:26.57
is he gets all those
letters instead of me!
00:47:26.67\00:47:28.65
I like that, yeah!
00:47:28.85\00:47:30.44
I get those crank
letters! Well, listen,
00:47:30.64\00:47:32.41
we have been praying about
this... this offering today.
00:47:32.61\00:47:37.09
This commitment. And we've got
some things that are happening
00:47:37.29\00:47:40.88
and rather than
telling you about some of them
00:47:40.98\00:47:43.10
right now we're
going to run a video roll
00:47:43.20\00:47:45.93
and let you look at some of
the things that are happening
00:47:46.03\00:47:48.75
here at 3ABN.
00:47:48.96\00:47:50.43
Throughout the years, Three
Angels Broadcasting Network
00:47:53.97\00:47:56.56
has always sought to stretch
00:47:56.66\00:47:58.38
the reach of the
gospel in every way.
00:47:58.48\00:48:00.27
And the same holds true today...
00:48:00.48\00:48:02.59
through television, radio, the
Internet, books, CDs and DVDs.
00:48:02.79\00:48:07.17
3ABN's goal is to spread the
good news to all those who are
00:48:07.47\00:48:11.02
hungering for truth.
00:48:11.12\00:48:12.28
Danny Shelton's dream to reach
the world with the undiluted
00:48:12.59\00:48:15.86
three angels'
messages of Revelation 14
00:48:15.97\00:48:18.43
is now the vision of thousands
00:48:18.63\00:48:21.03
who continue to support
00:48:21.13\00:48:22.66
this mission through their
prayers and financial support.
00:48:22.76\00:48:25.62
Many have been the
miracles the Lord has performed
00:48:25.82\00:48:28.72
on behalf of this ministry,
00:48:28.82\00:48:30.36
and we believe that it has
always been His desire for us
00:48:30.56\00:48:34.56
to trust Him completely
and to step out in faith.
00:48:34.66\00:48:37.51
Time after time we've seen that
where God guides, He provides.
00:48:37.71\00:48:42.50
And now we believe God is
leading 3ABN to expand our
00:48:42.70\00:48:46.18
operations in several ways.
00:48:46.28\00:48:48.10
And we are trusting that He
will provide the necessary funds
00:48:48.31\00:48:51.66
through the
generosity of His people.
00:48:51.76\00:48:54.23
3ABN's Expansion
Project includes four vital and
00:48:55.17\00:48:59.21
necessary areas: the first
being physical expansion of
00:48:59.31\00:49:03.10
our facilities. Our pastoral
00:49:03.20\00:49:05.25
ministries and marketing
00:49:05.35\00:49:06.97
departments have long been
00:49:07.07\00:49:08.52
working in cramped and
00:49:08.62\00:49:10.34
inefficient surroundings.
00:49:10.44\00:49:12.11
And our Call Center operations
00:49:12.31\00:49:13.87
have outgrown their building
00:49:13.98\00:49:15.33
as well.
00:49:15.43\00:49:16.44
For many years our Call Center
00:49:16.64\00:49:18.16
has serviced thousands of
00:49:18.26\00:49:19.68
telephone calls from all over
00:49:19.78\00:49:21.66
the world each week.
00:49:21.76\00:49:23.11
Those numbers doubled when 3ABN
00:49:23.14\00:49:25.65
became available on the
00:49:25.75\00:49:26.92
DISH Network. And now,
as we pray for the Lord
00:49:27.02\00:49:30.23
to make the way clear for 3ABN
00:49:30.33\00:49:32.19
to be offered on Direct TV,
00:49:32.29\00:49:34.52
this need is even more critical
00:49:34.73\00:49:36.89
since their potential audience
00:49:37.09\00:49:38.78
is currently over
40,000,000 viewers.
00:49:38.88\00:49:42.08
We've already started making
00:49:42.28\00:49:43.78
plans to roughly double our
00:49:43.88\00:49:45.57
Call Center building size
00:49:45.67\00:49:47.82
providing much-needed room for
00:49:47.92\00:49:49.41
shipping, receiving, and
storage along with an expanded
00:49:49.52\00:49:53.93
printing facility.
00:49:54.03\00:49:55.09
Through careful prayer and
planning, we're stepping out
00:49:55.29\00:49:59.16
in faith making it possible for
our staff to share the gospel
00:49:59.26\00:50:02.99
more efficiently with those
who so desperately need it.
00:50:03.09\00:50:06.57
Another area where 3ABN
is stepping out in faith
00:50:07.63\00:50:10.57
is in our production expansion.
00:50:10.67\00:50:12.47
As our Children's Studio nears
00:50:12.67\00:50:14.53
completion and programs begin
00:50:14.63\00:50:16.32
to be scheduled,
00:50:16.42\00:50:17.49
the real need to complete our
00:50:17.59\00:50:19.40
Children's Studio Control Room
00:50:19.50\00:50:21.05
comes to the forefront.
00:50:21.16\00:50:22.65
We have identified children
and young adult programming
00:50:22.85\00:50:26.12
as being an essential area
00:50:26.32\00:50:28.28
for ministry. Our young
people need to hear about Jesus
00:50:28.48\00:50:31.91
in a way that is both relevant
00:50:32.01\00:50:33.66
and reverent.
00:50:33.76\00:50:34.91
And since most Christian
programming for youth today
00:50:35.12\00:50:38.36
has tried to imitate the world,
00:50:38.46\00:50:40.53
we believe that counteracting
00:50:40.73\00:50:42.52
the counterfeit is
more important than ever.
00:50:42.63\00:50:45.52
But this equipment
will not be used exclusively
00:50:45.72\00:50:48.43
for this studio. Because
of the control room location,
00:50:48.53\00:50:52.29
it will also be used to
produce the many programs
00:50:52.39\00:50:55.48
which originate from
3ABN's Worship Center
00:50:55.59\00:50:58.34
like the one
you're watching today.
00:50:58.44\00:51:00.22
Many of our viewers tell us that
00:51:00.42\00:51:02.34
they are shut-ins, relying on
00:51:02.44\00:51:04.35
3ABN to bring them a fresh and
00:51:04.45\00:51:06.50
relevant church
service each week.
00:51:06.60\00:51:08.65
We want to give them that
00:51:08.85\00:51:10.31
experience and connect them
00:51:10.41\00:51:12.07
with their church family
00:51:12.18\00:51:13.54
by bringing them a church
00:51:13.74\00:51:15.14
service each week live
00:51:15.24\00:51:17.55
right here from the
3ABN Worship Center.
00:51:17.58\00:51:20.32
Another area we've identified
is the need for evangelistic
00:51:21.35\00:51:24.88
expansion. We've targeted
the need to reach the teenage
00:51:24.98\00:51:28.51
audience specifically.
00:51:28.61\00:51:30.10
And through testing our Take 15
program, we've seen that we can
00:51:30.30\00:51:34.28
reach them in an effective way.
00:51:34.38\00:51:36.65
Your support of this
project will enable us to make
00:51:36.85\00:51:39.51
tremendous inroads in
targeting the young people
00:51:39.61\00:51:42.82
who are even now facing
more peril than ever before.
00:51:42.92\00:51:47.34
They need to hear about Jesus,
00:51:47.55\00:51:49.66
and we want to
make sure that they do.
00:51:49.86\00:51:52.04
Our last area is
broadcast expansion.
00:51:52.86\00:51:56.04
Two vital projects have
just received the necessary
00:51:56.24\00:51:59.24
permits to begin construction.
00:51:59.34\00:52:01.45
The first is the city
of Managua, Nicaragua.
00:52:01.65\00:52:04.38
and will be 3ABN's first
full-time 3ABN Latino station
00:52:04.58\00:52:09.04
in Central America.
00:52:09.15\00:52:10.67
Besides covering the entire
city of 1.7 million viewers,
00:52:10.87\00:52:15.91
this station will also be
eligible for re-transmission
00:52:16.01\00:52:19.75
through a network of repeater
stations across the country.
00:52:19.95\00:52:23.00
And just before we taped
this message, we received word
00:52:23.20\00:52:26.68
that through the faithful
prayers and support of our
00:52:26.78\00:52:29.42
viewers the funds to
move forward with this project
00:52:29.52\00:52:32.53
have already come in.
00:52:32.63\00:52:34.08
What an incredible God we have!
00:52:34.28\00:52:36.34
And what a wonderful example of
how He provides where He guides.
00:52:36.44\00:52:41.20
And we have another opportunity
in the sub-Saharan country of
00:52:41.40\00:52:45.33
Ghana - where the government
has given us permission
00:52:45.43\00:52:48.22
to build a brand
new television station.
00:52:48.32\00:52:50.65
We praise the Lord for this
opportunity to build what will
00:52:50.86\00:52:54.29
be 3ABN's 2nd television station
on the African continent.
00:52:54.39\00:52:58.53
But your help is needed.
00:52:58.73\00:53:00.30
Since the window of opportunity
is only a few weeks long,
00:53:00.51\00:53:04.20
please pray and ask the
Lord what He would have you do
00:53:04.30\00:53:07.79
for the millions in Ghana
who desperately need to hear
00:53:07.89\00:53:10.93
about Jesus.
00:53:11.03\00:53:12.50
We believe that
there is no time to waste.
00:53:12.97\00:53:15.62
As the winds of war and
strife continue to pick up
00:53:15.72\00:53:18.71
around the world, people
are turning desperately to God
00:53:18.81\00:53:22.55
for answers. Even though the
world economy seems to be taking
00:53:22.66\00:53:25.93
a turn for the worse,
God's promises are true.
00:53:26.03\00:53:29.08
"Give and it shall be
given to you" says Luke 6:38.
00:53:29.18\00:53:32.96
"Good measure, pressed down,
shaken together, and running
00:53:33.16\00:53:36.30
over shall men
give into your bosom.
00:53:36.41\00:53:38.96
For with the same
measure that you meet withal,
00:53:39.16\00:53:41.79
it shall be
measured to you again. "
00:53:41.89\00:53:43.62
God bless you all!
00:53:43.83\00:53:45.46
Praise the Lord! Amen.
00:53:46.72\00:53:48.10
We are really looking
forward to seeing some of these
00:53:48.33\00:53:51.16
things happen, but
we need your support.
00:53:51.26\00:53:53.86
This morning someone
told Danny they were...
00:53:54.06\00:53:57.02
And these folks had already
given $10,000, but they came
00:53:57.22\00:54:00.85
and the Lord woke them up
00:54:00.95\00:54:02.06
in the middle of
the night last night.
00:54:02.16\00:54:03.72
Going to give some more!
That's right, another $100,000.
00:54:03.92\00:54:07.74
Isn't that
great? Praise the Lord!
00:54:07.94\00:54:11.21
Danny, the Lord woke me up
in the middle of the night.
00:54:13.87\00:54:17.39
It was the storm!
00:54:17.49\00:54:20.41
I came over here, but...
I've been going through so
00:54:21.52\00:54:24.30
many storms I
didn't even wake up. Right.
00:54:24.40\00:54:27.13
You know, Camille...
Camille and I want to be a part
00:54:27.28\00:54:31.15
of this day, and I'm
going to be making a commitment.
00:54:31.25\00:54:35.77
Somebody said: "Have you
talked to Camille about it? "
00:54:35.87\00:54:38.57
I said: "No,
I'm afraid I didn't"
00:54:38.77\00:54:41.32
But... "because she
would want to increase it. "
00:54:41.52\00:54:45.46
But... All right!
00:54:45.66\00:54:48.58
We want to...
I'll talk to Camille.
00:54:48.78\00:54:50.76
Yeah, right.
00:54:50.96\00:54:53.18
We want to commit half of our
after-tax salary here at 3ABN.
00:54:54.00\00:54:59.37
Wow! Praise the Lord!
Give it back to this ministry.
00:54:59.47\00:55:01.53
Wonderful! Praise the Lord!
You pray for us that the Lord
00:55:01.56\00:55:04.39
will help us to do that.
00:55:04.49\00:55:05.50
That's great. And this isn't
a big time in our money-making
00:55:05.70\00:55:10.20
years, so we do need His
blessing in order to do it.
00:55:10.30\00:55:14.24
Another check here for $10,000.
Somebody placed it in my hand
00:55:14.44\00:55:17.76
here last night. Amen.
Another one for $1,000.
00:55:17.86\00:55:20.90
And so God is leading.
00:55:21.10\00:55:24.00
But you know
something? The widow's mite
00:55:24.20\00:55:26.49
is important too.
AMEN. God blesses.
00:55:26.59\00:55:29.16
What we want is
100% participation.
00:55:29.36\00:55:32.37

00:56:02.76\00:56:04.73
But please take your envelope

$1... if that's all you can do.
00:56:09.95\00:56:12.78
Please do that and please
fill it out so we can thank you
00:56:12.99\00:56:17.21
for it. Would you
do that right now?
00:56:17.31\00:56:19.12
Danny, would you
lead us in prayer?
00:56:19.32\00:56:20.97
I will. Heavenly Father,
thank You for your blessings
00:56:21.07\00:56:23.66
for this another beautiful
Sabbath day to worship You.
00:56:23.77\00:56:26.58
Thank you for the
tools to literally reach
00:56:26.68\00:56:29.33
into all the world.
We realize Your coming
00:56:29.43\00:56:31.53
is very soon. But Father,
help us to... to feel the
00:56:31.63\00:56:35.68
anointing of Your Holy Spirit.
We pray for the outpouring of
00:56:35.78\00:56:38.54
the Latter Rain that we will see
that what we have is not really
00:56:38.64\00:56:41.44
our but it's Yours. I
ask you to impress one of us
00:56:41.54\00:56:45.10
today to do even more
than we may think possible
00:56:45.20\00:56:48.27
but to put our faith to the
test to know that we are not
00:56:48.37\00:56:51.59
trusting in ourselves
but we are trusting in You.
00:56:51.69\00:56:53.89
And we pray that all
the finances necessary
00:56:54.10\00:56:56.60
to continue this ministry,
to go into all the world,
00:56:56.70\00:57:00.33
will come in. So we
pray for each person now.
00:57:00.43\00:57:03.25
As the Holy Spirit is impressing
You will impress them -
00:57:03.35\00:57:06.46
us - how much to give.
In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.
00:57:06.56\00:57:10.19
