00:03:24.03\00:03:29.64
OLE I THOUGHT OF THIS
THINKING ABOUT THIS LINK
00:03:29.67\00:03:34.74
TO HEAVEN.
00:03:36.91\00:03:38.48
YES.
00:03:38.51\00:03:39.21
FROM A PERSONAL EXPERIENCE.
00:03:39.25\00:03:42.48
I WAS WAITING IN MY
OFFICE TO DO SOMETHING VERY
00:03:42.52\00:03:47.59
IMPORTANT AND I GOT A
PHONE CALL FROM A LADY AND
00:03:50.56\00:03:55.60
SHE SAID ARE YOU DR. MASSEY?
00:03:59.37\00:04:04.24
I SAID YES AND SHE SAID I
HAVE JUST WATCHED TV AND I
00:04:04.27\00:04:09.34
HAVE FOUND OUT THAT
YOU ARE THE CAUSE OF ALL MY
00:04:14.72\00:04:19.79
STRESS.
00:04:23.56\00:04:24.56
AND I WAS PUZZLED AND
I SAID, WOULD YOU PLEASE
00:04:24.59\00:04:29.40
EXPLAIN HOW AM I
CAUSING YOU STRESS.
00:04:32.37\00:04:37.97
SHE SAID NO, NO,
NO, NO NOT THAT WAY.
00:04:38.01\00:04:43.08
I LEARNED WHERE MY
STRESS IS COMING FROM.
00:04:45.25\00:04:51.65
AND SHE SAID THIS IS
CHRISTMAS TIME AND I AM
00:04:51.69\00:04:56.76
FEELING SO LONELY AND
DEPRESSED AND I DON'T FEEL
00:04:59.73\00:05:04.83
LIKE LIVING BECAUSE
MY SON PASSED AWAY LAST
00:05:07.00\00:05:13.38
CHRISTMAS.
00:05:13.41\00:05:14.48
HIS NAME IS BILL AND SO
HE'S UP THERE WITH GOD AND
00:05:14.51\00:05:19.28
I TALK TO HIM EVERY
DAY AND I TELL HIM OK BILL
00:05:24.52\00:05:29.66
SINCE YOU ARE ALREADY
THERE GOD IS A VERY BUSY
00:05:29.69\00:05:34.73
MAN YOU KNOW SO COULD
YOU SLIP INTO HIS PLACE AND
00:05:34.76\00:05:38.83
JUST WHISPER MY REQUEST.
00:05:38.87\00:05:41.40
SO I WILL TALK TO YOU
AND YOU GO AHEAD AND TALK TO
00:05:41.44\00:05:44.81
THE LORD AND LET
HIM KNOW MY PROBLEMS.
00:05:44.84\00:05:48.91
AND SO I SAID YOU
KNOW, HER NAME WAS DOROTHY, I
00:05:48.94\00:05:52.45
SAID DOROTHY I JUST
HAPPEN TO HAVE A DIRECT
00:05:52.48\00:05:56.79
CONNECTION TO HEAVEN
AND IF YOU DON'T MIND I WILL
00:05:56.82\00:06:02.56
CONNECT YOU TO GOD
DIRECTLY SO YOU DON'T NEED
00:06:02.59\00:06:06.46
TO WORRY BILL EVERY DAY.
00:06:06.49\00:06:09.63
SHE SAID CAN YOU?
00:06:09.66\00:06:11.50
I SAID YES.
00:06:11.53\00:06:12.80
ALRIGHT I SAID HANG
TIGHT ONTO YOUR PHONE BECAUSE
00:06:12.83\00:06:15.90
I'M GOING TO DO THAT RIGHT NOW.
00:06:15.94\00:06:18.57
AND I SAID, DEAR
JESUS, DOROTHY IS DESPERATELY
00:06:18.61\00:06:22.71
WANTING TO TALK TO YOU
BUT SHE HAS TO GO THROUGH BILL
00:06:22.74\00:06:26.01
ACCORDING TO HER
BELIEF AND WOULD YOU PLEASE GO
00:06:26.05\00:06:29.08
AHEAD AND LISTEN TO
HER DIRECTLY SO SHE DOESN'T
00:06:29.12\00:06:32.55
HAVE TO WORRY ANY OTHER METHOD.
00:06:32.59\00:06:35.39
AND I SAID OK,
DOROTHY YOU ARE CONNECTED.
00:06:35.42\00:06:40.80
YOU GO AHEAD AND TELL HIM
ANYTHING YOU WANT TO TELL.
00:06:40.83\00:06:44.67
AND YOU CAN DO THAT EVERY DAY.
00:06:44.70\00:06:47.40
JUST SIMPLY CLOSE YOUR
EYES, FOLD YOUR HANDS AND
00:06:47.44\00:06:52.37
TALK TO GOD AND SAY HERE I AM.
00:06:52.41\00:06:56.38
THIS IS MY CHALLENGE.
00:06:56.41\00:06:58.61
WOULD YOU PLEASE
HEAR IT AND HELP ME OUT.
00:06:58.65\00:07:02.35
AND SHE SAID WOW.
00:07:02.38\00:07:04.69
I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS
SO EASY TO LINK TO HEAVEN.
00:07:04.72\00:07:10.96
AND I SAID NOW, AND
SHE SAID BUT I HAVE ONE
00:07:10.99\00:07:13.43
QUESTION.
00:07:13.46\00:07:14.93
WHAT ABOUT BILL?
00:07:14.93\00:07:16.90
WON'T HE BE UPSET
THAT I AM BYPASSING HIM?
00:07:16.93\00:07:20.44
BLESS HER HEART.
00:07:20.47\00:07:21.27
I SAID, LET ME
TELL YOU SOMETHING.
00:07:21.30\00:07:24.07
IF BILL COULD HEAR IT
HE WOULD BE TICKLED THAT MY
00:07:24.11\00:07:29.18
MOTHER HAS DIRECT
CONNECTION TO GOD.
00:07:29.21\00:07:32.18
SO I SAID DON'T WORRY ABOUT HIM.
00:07:32.21\00:07:34.12
HE DOESN'T KNOW
ANYTHING ABOUT ALL THIS.
00:07:34.15\00:07:36.79
SO I SAID YOU ARE
DIRECTLY CONNECTED AND BILL IS
00:07:36.82\00:07:39.72
ASLEEP AND YOU DON'T
NEED TO WORRY ABOUT BILL.
00:07:39.75\00:07:43.59
AND SHE SAID, OH
DR. MASSEY, I FEEL SO
00:07:43.63\00:07:48.10
GOOD.
00:07:48.13\00:07:49.26
I HAVE BEEN SO WORRIED
THAT GOD IS NOT GOING TO
00:07:49.30\00:07:53.20
BE ABLE TO HEAR ME
BECAUSE HE IS SO BUSY.
00:07:53.23\00:07:55.74
CAN YOU IMAGINE
HOW MUCH HE HAS TO DO?
00:07:55.77\00:07:58.81
AND SO I THOUGHT YOU
KNOW, THERE ARE LOTS OF PEOPLE
00:07:58.84\00:08:02.31
OUT THERE WHO MAY
NOT BE LINKING TO HEAVEN.
00:08:02.34\00:08:07.58
AND THIS MAY BE A GOOD
WAY FOR US TO EXPLAIN TO
00:08:07.62\00:08:12.29
PEOPLE THAT WE COULD LINK
DIRECTLY TO HEAVEN WITHOUT
00:08:12.32\00:08:17.53
GOING THROUGH
ANY OTHER PROCEDURES.
00:08:17.56\00:08:19.79
THAT WHOLE IMAGE, YOU
REALIZE THAT MOST PEOPLE
00:08:19.83\00:08:24.37
DO NOT REALIZE
THAT THEY ARE NOT ALONE.
00:08:24.40\00:08:27.24
THEY DON'T REALIZE
THEY HAVE THAT DIRECT
00:08:27.27\00:08:29.00
CONNECTION.
00:08:29.04\00:08:30.01
IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE
YOU HAVE NOT ONLY TAKEN THAT
00:08:30.04\00:08:35.31
MOMENT WITH HER, YOU
HAVE NOW SEEN GOD AMPLIFY THAT
00:08:35.34\00:08:40.48
AND USE IT NOT JUST
IN YOUR LOCAL AREA BUT IN
00:08:40.52\00:08:45.72
YOUR MINISTRY AS WELL.
00:08:45.75\00:08:46.79
WELL WE HAVE
STARTED A REVOLUTION.
00:08:46.82\00:08:50.26
IT'S CALLED "THE
PRAYER REVOLUTION".
00:08:50.29\00:08:53.66
A PRAYER REVOLUTION AND
HOW FAR HAS THAT SPREAD?
00:08:53.70\00:08:58.43
WELL I AM SO GLAD YOU'RE ASKING.
00:08:58.47\00:09:00.90
A FRIEND OF MINE AT THE
GENERAL CONFERENCE AND I
00:09:00.94\00:09:06.47
WE SOME TIME AGO WE
DECIDED THAT WE WILL HAVE
00:09:06.51\00:09:10.31
A WORLD-WIDE PRAYER GROUP.
00:09:10.35\00:09:12.05
OK.
00:09:12.08\00:09:12.91
SO EVERY MONDAY
AT 5 O'CLOCK, THAT IS
00:09:12.95\00:09:17.95
CALIFORNIA TIME, 8
O'CLOCK EASTERN TIME AND 7:30 IN
00:09:17.99\00:09:24.66
THE MORNING IN INDIA.
00:09:24.69\00:09:28.50
OKAY.
00:09:28.53\00:09:29.60
SO WE HAVE A PRAYER GROUP
EVERY MONDAY AT 5 O'CLOCK.
00:09:29.63\00:09:33.87
AND SO WE HAVE PEOPLE
FROM OUR INDIAN LEADERS ARE ON
00:09:33.90\00:09:38.21
LINE, PEOPLE FROM
AUSTRALIA, JAMAICA.
00:09:38.24\00:09:42.61
THEY FIND THE RIGHT
TIME ZONE FOR THEIR AREA.
00:09:42.64\00:09:44.48
THE RIGHT TIME ZONE.
00:09:44.51\00:09:45.51
AND WE DO FOUR THINGS.
00:09:45.55\00:09:48.98
WE FIRST ASK PEOPLE DO
YOU HAVE ANYTHING THAT YOU
00:09:49.02\00:09:54.49
WOULD LIKE TO PRAISE GOD FOR?
00:09:54.52\00:09:55.89
AND SO THEY ALL TALK
ABOUT WHAT GOD HAS DONE IN THEIR
00:09:55.92\00:10:01.33
LIFE AND HOW
EXCITING IT HAS BEEN.
00:10:01.36\00:10:06.07
AND THEN WE ASK THEM
DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO
00:10:06.10\00:10:10.67
REQUEST PRAYER FOR?
00:10:10.71\00:10:12.04
THEN THEY WILL
SAY THEIR REQUESTS.
00:10:12.07\00:10:16.75
AND WE PRAYER FOR OUR
LEADERS, CHURCH LEADERS.
00:10:16.78\00:10:18.08
WE PRAY FOR OUR WORLD LEADERS.
00:10:18.11\00:10:19.08
WE ALSO PRAYER FOR OUR
PASTORS AND FOR SPECIFIC
00:10:19.11\00:10:19.88
ISSUES THAT
GROUPS MAY BE FACING.
00:10:19.91\00:10:21.42
AND THEN WE ASK THEM TO
ASK ANY PARTICULAR REQUEST
00:10:21.45\00:10:22.78
YOU MAY HAVE, HOW
YOU WOULD LIKE TO PRAY.
00:10:22.82\00:10:24.12
HOW CAN WE PRAY FOR YOU.
00:10:24.15\00:10:25.49
SO OUR COORDINATOR WHO IS
MR. STANLEY _____ FROM THE
00:10:25.52\00:10:26.29
GENERAL
CONFERENCE TREASURY OFFICE.
00:10:26.32\00:10:27.46
OKAY.
00:10:27.49\00:10:28.46
NOW HE WORKS WITH ME
AND WITH OUR GROUP AND SO HE
00:10:28.49\00:10:29.29
WILL ASK OLE HOW
CAN WE PRAY FOR YOU.
00:10:29.32\00:10:30.83
WHAT WOULD YOU
LIKE US TO PRAY FOR?
00:10:30.86\00:10:32.16
AND YOU KNOW IT IS SO EXCITING.
00:10:32.19\00:10:33.19
AND THIS PANDEMIC HAS
REALLY BROUGHT A BLESSING
00:10:33.23\00:10:34.13
TO US.
00:10:34.20\00:10:35.16
AND YOU'RE CONVINCED
THAT ALL THESE PRAYERS FROM
00:10:35.20\00:10:36.13
AROUND THE WORLD ARE
NOT OVER LOADING GOD.
00:10:36.16\00:10:37.47
IT'S NOT TOO MUCH FOR HIM.
00:10:37.50\00:10:38.43
THAT IS REALLY A
VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION.
00:10:38.47\00:10:39.50
YOU KNOW ELLEN WHITE
SAYS, ELLEN WHITE IS A GREAT
00:10:39.53\00:10:40.84
AUTHOR AND A GREAT
WRITER, GOD'S MESSENGER WHO
00:10:40.87\00:10:42.17
PREDICTED A LOT OF
THINGS SPIRITUALLY FOR PEOPLE.
00:10:42.20\00:10:43.51
SHE'S BLESSED A LOT OF US.
00:10:43.54\00:10:44.31
YES SHE HAS BLESSED A LOT OF US.
00:10:44.34\00:10:45.51
SHE SAID THE
RELATION BETWEEN GOD AND EACH
00:10:45.54\00:10:46.88
INDIVIDUAL IS AS
DISTINCT AND COMPLETE AS THOUGH
00:10:46.91\00:10:48.21
THERE WAS NOT ANOTHER
SOUL ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH
00:10:48.24\00:10:49.54
TO SHARE HIS WATCH CARE.
00:10:49.58\00:10:51.25
NOT ANOTHER SOUL FOR
WHOM HE GAVE HIS SON.
00:10:51.28\00:10:56.15
AND SO I FELT, HUM,
THERE ARE ALMOST EIGHT BILLION
00:10:56.18\00:11:01.69
PEOPLE ON EARTH.
00:11:01.72\00:11:03.32
YES THERE ARE.
00:11:03.36\00:11:04.96
EVERY ONE HAS A
DIRECT LINK TO GOD?
00:11:04.99\00:11:09.53
THEN I SAIDHOW COULD THAT BE?
00:11:09.56\00:11:11.63
WELL LET ME TELL YOU.
00:12:21.07\00:12:22.04
I HAVE UNDERSTOOD IN
THE LAST FEW MONTHS I HAVE
00:12:22.07\00:12:25.71
BEEN CONCENTRATING
ON THIS WHOLE ISSUE.
00:12:25.74\00:12:28.54
AND I JUST SHARED WITH
MY FAMILY LAST WEEK, EVERY
00:12:28.58\00:12:35.28
MEMBER OF MY FAMILY.
00:12:35.32\00:12:37.55
SOME ARE IN AUSTRALIA,
SOME ARE IN INDIA, SOME
00:12:37.59\00:12:40.86
ARE IN ENGLAND,
SOME ARE HERE IN THE U.S.
00:12:40.89\00:12:43.79
AND EVERY MEMBER OF MY
FAMILY IS CLEARLY VISIBLE
00:12:43.83\00:12:49.06
IN MY MIND.
00:12:49.10\00:12:50.83
THOSE WHO HAVE DIED,
THOSE WHO ARE ALIVE, THOSE WHO
00:12:50.87\00:12:55.17
ARE IN SCHOOL,
THOSE WHO ARE WORKING.
00:12:55.20\00:12:58.64
EVERYONE OF THEM I
KNOW THEM AND AT A MOMENTS
00:12:58.67\00:13:02.71
NOTICE, LIKE RIGHT
NOW, I'VE ALREADY TAKEN A
00:13:02.74\00:13:06.48
PICTURE OF ALL MY
FAMILY AND I'M RIGHT HERE AND I
00:13:06.51\00:13:09.25
HAVEN'T GONE ANYWHERE.
00:13:09.28\00:13:10.02
YOU CAN DO THAT WITH YOUR BRAIN.
00:13:10.05\00:13:14.96
RIGHT.
00:13:14.99\00:13:15.96
IF I COULD DO IT WITH
MY BRAIN WHAT GOD COULD DO.
00:13:15.99\00:13:20.50
AND IF YOU MEMORIZE
SEVEN HUNDRED TWENTY THOUSAND
00:13:20.53\00:13:26.33
THINGS A DAY FOR 40
YEARS YOU WILL ONLY USE TEN
00:13:26.37\00:13:31.41
PERCENT OF YOUR BRAINS CAPACITY.
00:13:31.44\00:13:33.74
OKAY.
00:13:33.78\00:13:34.74
SO I'M SAYING GOD,
WE ARE TALKING WITH GOD.
00:13:34.78\00:13:38.48
LET ME MAKE A BREAK
HERE BECAUSE YOU ARE TALKING
00:13:38.51\00:13:42.02
ABOUT PRAYER AND HERE
WE ARE WITH "ADVENTURES IN
00:13:42.05\00:13:46.25
MISSIONS" FOR GOSPEL
OUTREACH AND I THINK I
00:13:46.29\00:13:49.42
HEAR YOU SAYING THAT
NONE OF WHAT GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:13:49.46\00:13:52.63
DOES WOULD BE
EFFECTIVE WITHOUT THAT LINK TO
00:13:52.66\00:13:56.77
HEAVEN.
00:13:56.80\00:13:57.43
AMEN, AMEN.
00:13:57.47\00:13:58.47
YOU KNOW THIS.
00:13:58.50\00:13:59.07
YOU WANT TO TAKE A BREAK?
00:13:59.10\00:14:00.37
WE NEED TO TAKE
A BREAK RIGHT NOW.
00:14:00.40\00:14:02.34
OKAY TAKE A BREAK.
00:14:02.37\00:14:03.27
I WOULD LOVE AGAIN
TO INVITE YOU WHO ARE
00:14:03.30\00:14:05.77
LISTENING, TAKE THIS
INTO YOUR HEART AND NOW THINK
00:14:05.81\00:14:09.61
OF THAT BROADER MISSION
THAT GOSPEL OUTREACH HAS
00:14:09.64\00:14:13.08
TO REACH SO MANY PLACES.
00:14:13.11\00:14:15.68
OVER FIFTY NATIONS
ARE IMPACTED BY THIS.
00:14:15.72\00:14:19.79
WATCH THIS LITTLE REMINDER
OF THAT AS WE TAKE A BREAK
00:14:19.82\00:14:23.46
HERE.
00:14:23.49\00:14:24.13
EARTH.
00:14:24.16\00:14:25.19
VAST, BEAUTIFUL, BUT
TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AND YOU CAN
00:14:25.23\00:14:30.87
SEE THE PAIN OF A WORLD
ON A COLLISION COURSE WITH
00:14:30.90\00:14:36.67
IT'S OWN GREED.
00:14:36.71\00:14:38.74
HUMANITY.
00:14:38.77\00:14:39.47
WE NEED LOVE.
00:14:39.51\00:14:41.91
WE NEED HOPE.
00:14:41.94\00:14:44.31
WE NEED A SAVIOR.
00:14:44.35\00:14:47.58
MORE THAN ONE THIRD OF
THE WORLD'S SEVEN BILLION
00:14:47.62\00:14:50.32
PEOPLE STILL NEED TO
HEAR ABOUT GOD'S LOVE AND HIS
00:14:50.35\00:14:54.32
PLAN TO SAVE US.
00:14:54.36\00:14:55.76
ONE THIRD.
00:14:55.79\00:14:57.89
IN SUCH A BIG WORLD
IT'S EASY TO FEEL SMALL, BUT
00:14:57.93\00:15:03.33
YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
00:15:03.37\00:15:05.80
PARTNER WITH GOSPEL
OUTREACH TO FUND BIBLE
00:15:05.83\00:15:08.77
WORKERS WHO ARE
MISSIONARIES IN THEIR OWN
00:15:08.80\00:15:11.11
VILLAGES, TOWNS AND CITIES.
00:15:11.14\00:15:14.11
THEY SHARE THE LIFE
CHANGING LOVE AND STORY OF
00:15:14.14\00:15:20.82
JESUS CHRIST.
00:15:20.85\00:15:22.28
THANK YOU FOR GIVING.
00:15:22.32\00:15:25.25
TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A
DIFFERENCE SO THAT ALL THE
00:15:25.29\00:15:30.36
WORLD MAY KNOW JESUS.
00:15:32.73\00:15:35.90
WELCOME BACK TO
"ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS"
00:15:35.93\00:15:38.33
GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:15:38.37\00:15:39.73
I'M OLE OLESEN.
00:15:39.77\00:15:41.14
I'M INTERVIEWING
MANZOOR MASSEY AND HE IS TELLING
00:15:41.17\00:15:44.87
US ABOUT THIS LINK TO
HEAVEN THAT IS PRAYER AND
00:15:44.91\00:15:49.61
THE IMPACT THAT HAS.
00:15:49.64\00:15:50.95
AND I JUST WANT TO INVITE
YOU AGAIN DON'T FORGET THE
00:15:50.98\00:15:55.02
MISSION THAT WE'RE DOING.
00:15:55.05\00:15:56.05
NOW YOU HAVE A GOAL IN
MIND FOR THIS EFFORT THAT
00:15:56.08\00:16:01.66
YOU'RE GOING,
THIS WORLD-WIDE PRAYER
00:16:01.69\00:16:04.19
GATHERING.
00:16:04.23\00:16:05.06
WHAT IS YOUR GOAL?
00:16:05.09\00:16:06.09
WELL OUR GOAL IS REALLY
TO LINK PEOPLE, LET THEM
00:16:06.13\00:16:11.83
DEVELOP A PERSONAL
RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD.
00:16:11.87\00:16:15.67
THERE IS NO REAL ADVENTURE
WITH GOD, ADVENTURES IN
00:16:15.70\00:16:18.74
MISSION, UNLESS WE'RE
CONNECTED TO GOD ARE WE.
00:16:18.77\00:16:21.44
ABSOLUTELY.
00:16:21.48\00:16:22.21
IT HAS TO BE PERSONAL.
00:16:22.24\00:16:23.75
AND I'M TELLING YOU
WITHOUT PRAYER, WITHOUT
00:16:23.78\00:16:27.45
THIS LINK TO HEAVEN,
OUR PREACHERS, OUR GOSPEL
00:16:27.48\00:16:32.35
OUTREACH WORKERS, THEY
CAN PREACH SERMONS BUT THEY
00:16:32.39\00:16:37.16
WILL HAVE NO EFFECT.
00:16:37.19\00:16:38.59
YOU KNOW THE DISCIPLES OF
JESUS WERE VERY ANXIOUS TO
00:16:38.63\00:16:42.06
GET OUT THERE AND
CONQUER THE WORLD AND JESUS SAID
00:16:42.10\00:16:47.10
NOT YET, JUST HANG ON.
00:16:47.14\00:16:50.17
YOU'RE NOT READY YET.
00:16:50.21\00:16:52.71
YOU NEED THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:16:52.74\00:16:54.61
YOU NEED THE SPIRIT OF GOD.
00:16:54.64\00:16:55.98
UNTIL THAT SPIRIT
COMES AND EQUIPS YOU AND
00:16:56.01\00:17:00.08
PREPARES YOU, YOU ARE
NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO BE
00:17:00.12\00:17:03.59
EFFECTIVE.
00:17:03.62\00:17:04.89
IT'S JUST LIKE BEING A
RAINBOW WITHOUT COLORS.
00:17:04.92\00:17:08.79
OKAY.
00:17:08.82\00:17:10.09
LIKE HAVING
CLOUDS WITHOUT THE RAIN.
00:17:10.13\00:17:12.79
AND SO PRAYER IS TO A
CHRISTIAN WHAT OXYGEN IS
00:17:12.83\00:17:17.83
TO OUR PHYSICAL HEALTH.
00:17:21.14\00:17:23.24
WOW.
00:17:23.27\00:17:24.34
NO PARTS OF OUR BODY
WORKS WITHOUT OXYGEN DOES IT.
00:17:24.37\00:17:29.11
EXACTLY.
00:17:29.14\00:17:30.15
AND SO UNLESS YOU PRAY
YOU ARE SPIRITUALLY DEAD.
00:17:30.18\00:17:34.65
AND WE WANT TO REALLY
HELP OUR PEOPLE TO BECOME
00:17:34.68\00:17:37.42
PEOPLE OF PRAYER.
00:17:37.45\00:17:39.29
WHEN WE BECOME PEOPLE
OF PRAYER EVERY ONE WE MEET
00:17:39.32\00:17:44.49
AND EVERY THING WE
TOUCH WILL BE COMPLETELY
00:17:44.53\00:17:48.53
DIFFERENT.
00:17:48.56\00:17:49.63
THEY WILL RISE TO A NEW
LEVEL OF EXISTENCE BECAUSE
00:17:49.66\00:17:55.97
WE ARE LINKING THEM TO HEAVEN.
00:17:56.00\00:17:58.01
THIS CELL PHONE IS A
VERY POWERFUL MACHINE.
00:17:58.04\00:18:02.14
IT IS.
00:18:02.18\00:18:03.14
AND I'M SURE PEOPLE
HAVE BETTER THAN THIS ONE.
00:18:03.18\00:18:07.98
THIS IS ELEVEN SOMETHING.
00:18:08.02\00:18:10.72
BUT WHEN I DO NOT
CHARGE IT, IT'S ABSOLUTELY
00:18:10.75\00:18:15.06
USELESS JUST LIKE A BRICK.
00:18:15.09\00:18:16.93
YES.
00:18:16.96\00:18:17.93
AND A CHRISTIAN
WITHOUT LINKING TO HEAVEN IS
00:18:17.96\00:18:23.23
NOTHING BUT A HUNK OF MUD.
00:18:23.26\00:18:26.03
HE HAS NO VALUE IN THE
SCHEME IN THE WITNESS OF
00:18:26.07\00:18:30.14
GOD.
00:18:30.17\00:18:31.54
SO PRAYER BRINGS
THE CHRISTIAN ALIVE.
00:18:31.57\00:18:36.14
AND SO WHEN WE ARE ALIVE
WHEN WHATEVER WE DO WE'RE
00:18:36.18\00:18:41.98
GOING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
00:18:42.02\00:18:43.55
I WANT TO TALK TO YOU
WHO ARE WATCHING RIGHT NOW.
00:18:43.59\00:18:47.42
HAVE YOU EVER SAT IN
YOUR CHAIR AND WATCHED THE
00:18:47.46\00:18:49.99
TELEVISION, GOOD CHRISTIAN
PROGRAMING, BUT FELT LIKE
00:18:50.03\00:18:53.29
A HUNK OF MUD AFTERWARDS?
00:18:53.33\00:18:55.10
(LAUGHTER) YOU KNOW I
THINK WE ALL HAVE THAT
00:18:55.13\00:18:59.03
TEMPTATION.
00:18:59.07\00:19:00.40
THE TEMPTATION TO
LIVE WITHOUT BREATHING THE
00:19:00.44\00:19:03.27
ATMOSPHERE OF HEAVEN.
00:19:03.30\00:19:04.77
THE TEMPTATION TO
LIVE WITHOUT TALKING TO GOD
00:19:04.81\00:19:07.24
PERSONALLY, TO LET OTHERS DO IT.
00:19:07.28\00:19:11.45
I JUST WANT TO ENCOURAGE
YOU DO NOT TAKE A PROGRAM
00:19:11.48\00:19:15.68
LIKE THIS AND MAKE
IT A SUBSTITUTE FOR THE
00:19:15.72\00:19:18.82
ADVENTURE THAT YOU
HAVE WITH GOD IN MISSION.
00:19:18.85\00:19:23.63
YOU HAVE AN ADVENTURE.
00:19:23.66\00:19:24.69
GOD HAS CALLED YOU TO DO
SOMETHING AND IT MAY BE TO
00:19:24.73\00:19:27.56
SUPPORT THIS MINISTRY.
00:19:27.60\00:19:29.03
THERE MAY BE OTHERS.
00:19:29.06\00:19:31.10
KEEP OBEYING GOD.
00:19:31.13\00:19:32.17
AND MANZOOR YOU THINK
THAT WHEN PEOPLE KEEP DAILY
00:19:32.20\00:19:38.31
CONNECTING, CHARGING
THEIR SPIRITUAL BATTERIES AS IT
00:19:38.34\00:19:41.68
WERE, KEEP COMING BACK
TO THE WATER OF LIFE, WHAT
00:19:41.71\00:19:46.01
IMPACT IS THAT GOING TO
HAVE ON GOSPEL OUTREACH,
00:19:46.05\00:19:50.05
ON THE WORK THAT IS GOING ON.
00:19:50.09\00:19:52.39
YOU KNOW THIS COMING
WEEK I'M GOING TO BE PREACHING
00:19:52.42\00:19:55.89
AT A CHURCH AND IT IS
GOING TO BE ABOUT THE TWO
00:19:55.92\00:19:57.26
MOST IMPORTANT
DAYS OF YOUR LIFE.
00:19:57.29\00:19:58.59
THE FIRST IS OF
COURSE WHEN YOU WERE BORN.
00:19:58.63\00:19:59.93
THE SECOND ONE IS
WHEN YOU DISCOVER WHY.
00:19:59.96\00:20:01.23
AH YES.
00:20:01.26\00:20:02.20
AND IT IS LINKING
WITH HEAVEN THAT ACTUALLY
00:20:02.23\00:20:03.23
BRINGS THAT LIFE TO US.
00:20:03.26\00:20:04.30
JESUS SPENT ALL NIGHTS
IN PRAYER LINKING WITH HIS
00:20:04.33\00:20:05.33
FATHER SO HE WOULD
KNOW WHAT WAS HE HERE FOR.
00:20:05.37\00:20:06.37
AND HE SAYS IN JOHN 4:34
I HAVE COME OR HE SAYS MY
00:20:06.40\00:20:07.94
MEAT IS TO DO THE WILL OF
THE ONE WHO SENT ME AND TO
00:20:07.97\00:20:09.27
FINISH HIS WORK.
00:20:09.30\00:20:10.31
NOW WE WILL NOT KNOW
WHAT OUR MISSION IS HERE ON
00:20:10.34\00:20:14.94
THIS EARTH AND IT HAS
HELPED ME TO REALIZE I'M
00:20:14.98\00:20:19.18
NOT MY OWN I'M ON LOAN
TO BUILD THE KINGDOM OF GOD.
00:20:19.21\00:20:23.79
IT IS A FACT ISN'T IT.
00:20:23.82\00:20:28.89
YES.
00:20:44.14\00:20:48.38
AND WE ARE ON LOAN.
00:20:48.41\00:20:49.48
HE HAS PUT HIS ARMS
AROUND US, HE HAS HELD US IN HIS
00:20:49.51\00:20:54.32
HANDS AND THE FACT THAT
WE ARE SITTING HERE TODAY IS
00:21:01.92\00:21:06.03
BECAUSE HE SAID THIS
IS YOUR MISSION TODAY.
00:21:06.06\00:21:08.80
ABSOLUTELY.
00:21:08.83\00:21:09.56
AND IT'S TRUE FOR EVERY PERSON.
00:21:09.60\00:21:11.17
YES.
00:21:11.20\00:21:12.27
EVERY PERSON HAS A
PURPOSE AND SOMETIMES WE GO AND
00:21:12.30\00:21:16.81
SOMEBODY ELSE GIVES US AN
ASSIGNMENT AND WE SAY I'LL
00:21:16.84\00:21:19.04
TRY AND DO THAT BUT I
TELL YOU WHEN YOU HEAR GOD,
00:21:19.07\00:21:24.25
GOD'S VOICE CALLING YOU
TO DO HIS MISSION YOU'RE THE
00:21:24.28\00:21:28.82
UNIQUE PERSON TO DO IT.
00:21:28.85\00:21:31.05
THAT REALLY BECOMES
AN ADVENTURE IN MISSION
00:21:31.09\00:21:33.09
DOESN'T IT.
00:21:33.12\00:21:33.96
YES.
00:21:33.99\00:21:34.99
AND ONE OF THE MOST
IMPORTANT THINGS JESUS DID
00:21:35.02\00:21:36.93
FOR HIS DISCIPLES HE
SAID PRAY AND PRAY LIKE THIS.
00:21:36.96\00:21:41.46
YES.
00:21:41.50\00:21:42.53
AND HE EVEN GAVE THEM
WHAT TO PRAY AND HOW TO PRAY.
00:21:42.56\00:21:45.93
IT IS TO PRAISE GOD.
00:21:45.97\00:21:48.37
IT IS TO UPLIFT THOSE
WHO ARE SPREADING THE GOSPEL.
00:21:48.40\00:21:52.31
IT IS TO BRING TO GOD
THE CHALLENGES WE ARE FACING.
00:21:52.34\00:21:55.18
AND IT IS TO ASK HIM
LET YOUR WILL BE DONE.
00:21:55.21\00:21:59.68
DON'T LET THE OTHER PERSON WIN.
00:21:59.71\00:22:02.52
LET YOUR WILL BE DONE.
00:22:02.55\00:22:04.45
WITH ALL THE EFFORTS WE
ARE PUTTING FORTH UNLESS
00:22:04.49\00:22:07.86
IT IS YOUR WILL
THEY WILL BE OF NO USE.
00:22:07.89\00:22:11.13
YOU KNOW IN THE
PRAYER, THE LORD'S PRAYER AS WE
00:22:11.16\00:22:14.10
CALL IT, AND THE DISCIPLES
PRAYER AS SOME SAY, JESUS
00:22:14.10\00:22:18.40
SAYS PRAY THIS, THY
WILL, TO USE THE OLD ENGLISH,
00:22:18.43\00:22:23.71
THY WILL BE DONE ON
EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN.
00:22:23.74\00:22:28.81
AND WHEN WE THINK OF
HEAVEN IT'S VERY DIFFICULT
00:22:28.84\00:22:34.78
TO IMAGINE
DISAGREEMENT IN HEAVEN.
00:22:34.82\00:22:37.52
EVEN THOUGH THE BIBLE
GIVES US A LITTLE HINT
00:22:37.55\00:22:41.22
THAT THERE WAS WAR
IN HEAVEN AT ONE TIME WE
00:22:41.26\00:22:45.63
THINK OF HEAVEN AS
BEING FILLED UP WITH WHETHER
00:22:45.66\00:22:48.66
IT'S ANGELS OR
WHATEVER, WHO ARE OBEYING, ARE
00:22:48.70\00:22:51.73
HEARING, THEY ARE IN THE
PRESENCE OF GOD DOING HIS
00:22:51.77\00:22:54.34
WILL.
00:22:54.37\00:22:55.34
AND REALLY WHEN WE ARE
INVITED INTO THE KINGDOM
00:22:55.37\00:22:58.14
OF GOD WE'RE INVITED
TO DO THE SAME AREN'T WE.
00:22:58.17\00:23:00.41
YES.
00:23:00.44\00:23:01.41
YOU KEEP LISTENING
BECAUSE PRAYER IS NOT JUST
00:23:01.44\00:23:05.08
SPEAKING TO GOD IS IT.
00:23:05.11\00:23:07.05
IT IS LISTENING.
00:23:07.08\00:23:07.92
IT IS LISTENING.
00:23:07.95\00:23:08.98
AND I WANT TO MENTION
A VERY QUICK ILLUSTRATION
00:23:09.02\00:23:11.22
HERE.
00:23:11.25\00:23:11.99
MOTHER TERESA WAS IN MEDITATION.
00:23:12.02\00:23:14.92
SHE WAS.
00:23:14.96\00:23:15.99
AND SHE CAME OUT AFTER A
LONG TIME ALMOST TWO HOURS
00:23:16.02\00:23:20.26
AND A REPORTER WHO
WAS WAITING HE ASKED HER,
00:23:20.30\00:23:24.67
MOTHER TERESA WHAT
WERE YOU DOING THERE FOR SO
00:23:24.70\00:23:27.17
LONG?
00:23:27.20\00:23:28.00
SHE SAID, OH I
WAS TALKING TO JESUS.
00:23:28.04\00:23:30.37
AND HE SAID
WHAT DID HE TELL YOU?
00:23:30.41\00:23:32.74
SHE SAID NOTHING.
00:23:32.77\00:23:34.14
WELL WHAT DID YOU TELL HIM?
00:23:34.18\00:23:35.64
SHE SAID NOTHING.
00:23:35.68\00:23:37.38
SO HE SAID, THEN
WHAT WERE YOU DOING?
00:23:37.41\00:23:39.61
SHE SAID WELL WE
ENJOY EACH OTHER'S COMPANY.
00:23:39.65\00:23:42.68
WE JUST LIKE TO
HANG OUT TOGETHER.
00:23:42.72\00:23:44.15
(LAUGHTER) YOU KNOW
WHEN WE THINK ABOUT PRAYER AS
00:23:44.19\00:23:49.12
DEVELOPING A PERSONAL
RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, IT
00:23:49.16\00:23:53.50
IS THE MOST EXCITING
THING YOU CAN DISCOVER.
00:23:53.53\00:23:57.87
DANIEL DISCOVERED
IT THREE TIMES A DAY.
00:23:57.90\00:24:01.57
MY DAD DISCOVERED IT.
00:24:01.60\00:24:03.27
HE USED TO WAKE UP AT
2:15 OR 2:30 IN THE MORNING.
00:24:03.30\00:24:07.41
AND ONE DAY HE WAS PRAYING
IN HIS GARDEN AND WHEN THE
00:24:07.44\00:24:11.45
DAYLIGHT CAME ON HE SAW A
BIG COBRA SITTING IN FRONT
00:24:11.48\00:24:16.02
OF HIM LOOKING AT HIM
AND HE JUST OPENED HIS EYES,
00:24:16.05\00:24:17.79
HE LOOKED AT HIM AND HE
SAID, WELL YOU DIDN'T DO
00:24:17.82\00:24:19.12
ANYTHING TO ME I'M NOT
GOING TO DO ANYTHING TO
00:24:19.15\00:24:20.59
YOU.
00:24:20.62\00:24:21.26
GO ON.
00:24:21.29\00:24:25.26
THE COBRA JUST
TURNED AROUND AND WENT.
00:24:25.29\00:24:27.66
YOU SEE WHEN YOU HAVE,
AND THAT'S PSALM 91 IN ACTION.
00:24:27.66\00:24:30.87
PSALM 91.
00:24:30.90\00:24:31.60
YOU SEE.
00:24:31.63\00:24:32.63
SO PLEASE I WOULD ASK
OUR LISTENERS MAKE THIS LINK
00:24:32.67\00:24:37.87
TO HEAVEN A PERSONAL
EXPERIENCE WITH GOD AND
00:24:37.91\00:24:42.34
TALK TO HIM LIKE YOUR
TALKING TO A FRIEND WHO IS
00:24:42.38\00:24:47.38
LISTENING TO YOU AND THEN
YOU LISTEN TO YOUR FRIEND.
00:24:47.42\00:24:51.45
LISTEN TO HIM.
00:24:51.49\00:24:52.35
SPEND MORE TIME LISTENING.
00:24:52.39\00:24:54.76
NOT JUST SCANNING
OVER YOUR GROCERY LIST AND
00:24:54.79\00:24:57.96
SAYING I GOT TO GO.
00:24:57.99\00:25:00.16
SO THIS IS WHAT
PRAYER, MEDITATION, LINKING TO
00:25:00.20\00:25:04.37
HEAVEN IS ALL ABOUT.
00:25:04.40\00:25:07.17
THANK YOU MANZOOR.
00:25:07.20\00:25:10.17
AS WE COME TO THE END
HERE AGAIN I WANT TO ADDRESS
00:25:10.21\00:25:12.94
YOU WHO ARE WATCHING THIS.
00:25:12.97\00:25:16.01
I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN
INSPIRED AGAIN TO TRY IT
00:25:16.04\00:25:19.48
YOURSELF.
00:25:19.51\00:25:21.08
GOD'S SPIRIT IS
CALLING YOU TO BE PART OF THAT
00:25:21.12\00:25:24.99
CONVERSATION.
00:25:25.02\00:25:27.19
INDIVIDUALLY BETWEEN YOU
AND GOD BUT ALSO TO EXPAND
00:25:27.22\00:25:31.79
IT OUT TO GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:25:31.83\00:25:34.66
TO MINISTRIES IN INDIA,
IN THE UNITED STATES, IN THE
00:25:34.73\00:25:39.70
UNITED KINGDOM.
00:25:39.73\00:25:40.64
BUT GOSPEL OUTREACH
HAS A SPECIAL FOCUS.
00:25:40.67\00:25:43.64
REMEMBER WHAT IT IS?
00:25:43.67\00:25:45.37
IT'S THOSE WONDERFUL
GROUPS OF PEOPLE BETWEEN
00:25:45.41\00:25:50.58
THE TENTH, I THINK IT'S
CALLED THE 10/40 WINDOW.
00:25:50.61\00:25:55.22
THE 10/40 WINDOW.
00:25:55.25\00:25:56.45
IS THAT THE TENTH LATITUDE?
00:25:56.48\00:25:57.92
IT'S THE GEOGRAPHIC
AREA WHERE 98 PERCENT OF THE
00:25:57.95\00:26:01.79
PEOPLE WHO LIVE
THERE DON'T KNOW JESUS.
00:26:01.82\00:26:04.26
NINETY EIGHT PERCENT.
00:26:04.29\00:26:05.53
YOU CAN PRAY FOR THAT
AREA THAT PEOPLE WILL FALL IN
00:26:05.56\00:26:09.26
LOVE WITH THIS GOD THAT
THEY CAN SPEND TIME WITH.
00:26:09.30\00:26:12.93
THEY CAN LISTEN TO.
00:26:12.97\00:26:13.87
THEY CAN TALK TO.
00:26:13.90\00:26:15.00
THEY CAN BRING THEIR
NEEDS THEY CAN BRING THEIR JOYS.
00:26:15.04\00:26:17.84
YOU CAN DO THE SAME
AND ALWAYS INCLUDE GOSPEL
00:26:17.87\00:26:20.91
OUTREACH WHEN YOU'RE
DOING THAT WOULD YOU?
00:26:20.94\00:26:23.38
PRAY FOR US.
00:26:23.41\00:26:24.68
WE NEED THE PRESENCE OF GOD.
00:26:24.71\00:26:27.05
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME.
