00:01:34.39\00:01:39.49
Good morning and happy Saturday.
00:01:51.47\00:01:53.98
And so.
00:01:53.98\00:01:55.08
>> I want to introduce here
today, a vital member of our
00:01:55.08\00:01:58.25
team. Her name is Nicole
Braxton, and she is our new
00:01:58.25\00:02:02.22
full-time, Amen,
Free Clinic director.
00:02:02.22\00:02:05.85
And so as a part of our efforts
to ramp up or clinic program,
00:02:05.85\00:02:09.56
Nicole will be leading
that charge in her role as the
00:02:09.56\00:02:12.26
clinic director.
00:02:12.26\00:02:13.80
And so right now, I
want to take the time to
00:02:13.80\00:02:17.77
ask Nicole a couple questions
about clinics, Nicole, for
00:02:17.77\00:02:20.64
those of us who are here,
who may not know what the amen
00:02:20.64\00:02:23.64
Clinics are, what
are even free clinics and
00:02:23.64\00:02:27.04
why do we organize them?
00:02:27.04\00:02:28.98
>> Yes, tactician, even
free clinics are a wonderful
00:02:28.98\00:02:32.55
mechanism and way for us to
reach the community to share
00:02:32.55\00:02:36.99
free health care for medical
dental and vision services to
00:02:36.99\00:02:41.99
the
00:02:41.99\00:02:43.49
underserved community members.
And it's a great opportunity
00:02:43.49\00:02:48.06
where we have health care
providers that volunteer their
00:02:48.06\00:02:51.10
time to serve their community
to serve as the wedge to the
00:02:51.10\00:02:55.44
gospel.
00:02:55.44\00:02:56.67
>> So that you you mentioned
that it serves as an intern
00:02:56.67\00:02:59.61
wedge to to the Gospel message,
how to Amen Clinics function as
00:02:59.61\00:03:04.11
the right arm of
the Gospel message.
00:03:04.11\00:03:06.95
>> Yes, a made free clinics
act as a catalyst, the community
00:03:06.95\00:03:11.95
and they part every partner
directly with the local church
00:03:11.95\00:03:16.26
to serve
00:03:16.26\00:03:17.96
and Maine beacon of hope in
terms of healing die quickly in
00:03:17.96\00:03:23.20
the community. And what we do
is when we go to the churches,
00:03:23.20\00:03:27.57
we have follow-up programs that
are organized prior to us air.
00:03:27.57\00:03:32.01
So post are Ayman free clinics.
We are able to invite patients
00:03:32.01\00:03:37.78
directly at our clinics to
our follow-up programs. So it
00:03:37.78\00:03:41.85
serves as a wedge to the
Gospel in the sense that we have
00:03:41.85\00:03:45.85
evangelistic programs,
health programs that are already
00:03:45.85\00:03:49.62
preplanned. So that patients
are invited to join that
00:03:49.62\00:03:53.60
relationship with the church
and we utilize health care and
00:03:53.60\00:03:59.03
it really combines medicine and
mission and ministry directly
00:03:59.03\00:04:04.34
at our aim and free clinics.
00:04:04.34\00:04:06.31
>> What I'm
hearing you say is that
00:04:06.31\00:04:08.51
the clinic isn't the be all
and all we organize clinics,
00:04:08.51\00:04:11.78
right? Yes. So it sounds like
what we're doing is focusing on
00:04:11.78\00:04:16.42
the local church and focusing
on the follow-up that comes up
00:04:16.42\00:04:19.95
after the clinic event because
ultimately, if all we do is
00:04:19.95\00:04:24.13
clean some teeth and do some
health screenings and that's
00:04:24.13\00:04:27.40
it,
00:04:27.40\00:04:28.23
that's of limited impact.
00:04:28.23\00:04:30.10
But what we want the medical
work to do is to drive to
00:04:30.10\00:04:32.93
community to the doors of
the church, Pew friend, the
00:04:32.93\00:04:35.40
volunteers, the
members of the church
00:04:35.40\00:04:37.81
to get plugged in which church
programs and as a result of
00:04:37.81\00:04:40.68
doing that, to have long-term
follow-up that will result in
00:04:40.68\00:04:43.58
change lives and
decisions for the Lord.
00:04:43.58\00:04:46.25
So we want a man to act as a
catalyst is. Nicole was saying
00:04:46.25\00:04:49.82
where the church becomes
the central focus of all that we
00:04:49.82\00:04:52.79
do. The right arm of the Gospel
has to function as a right arm
00:04:52.79\00:04:56.79
and opening doors and we're
taking a revamped looked at how
00:04:56.79\00:05:01.13
to make Amen Clinics a
more effective to that cause.
00:05:01.13\00:05:07.77
To that point, Nicole, if
someone here wanted to host a
00:05:07.77\00:05:11.44
name and free clinic in their
church or someone wanted to
00:05:11.44\00:05:14.24
volunteer to lend their
services to a clinic, but what
00:05:14.24\00:05:18.11
they do, how can they do that?
00:05:18.11\00:05:20.15
>> Yes, we're actively taking
request to host clinics at
00:05:20.15\00:05:25.12
churches. You can go to Ayman
Free Clinic Dot Org. If you're
00:05:25.12\00:05:29.09
interested in hosting a clinic,
you can also scan this QR code
00:05:29.09\00:05:34.63
that is on the screen and you
can join our network. So if you
00:05:34.63\00:05:39.37
are a health care professional,
you would like to get involved
00:05:39.37\00:05:42.67
and medical missionary work
and changing lives. You could go
00:05:42.67\00:05:46.51
and scanned the QR code or
go to a man free clinic dot org
00:05:46.51\00:05:51.55
and join our upcoming clinics
where we have over 12 clinics
00:05:51.55\00:05:56.08
that are coming up.
00:05:56.08\00:05:58.05
>> So there's a lot of health
professionals in this room and
00:05:58.05\00:06:01.42
there are a lot of non balsam
non-health professionals in
00:06:01.42\00:06:04.33
this room as well. So it's just
simply just Florida health care
00:06:04.33\00:06:07.56
professionals. So we just want
doctors and dentists at these
00:06:07.56\00:06:09.83
clinics next. Ali
question, Doctor, Shannon?
00:06:09.83\00:06:12.53
>> We welcome all. We would
like non medical volunteers as
00:06:12.53\00:06:17.34
well as medical volunteers
to serve at our clinics.
00:06:17.34\00:06:21.48
We have health care providers
that provide medical dental
00:06:21.48\00:06:24.58
vision and add-on services.
And if you are not my medical
00:06:24.58\00:06:28.48
volunteer, you can serve
in multiple areas such as
00:06:28.48\00:06:31.35
registration. Security has
put howdy. You can pray with
00:06:31.35\00:06:36.02
patients amongst
many other things.
00:06:36.02\00:06:38.93
>> Now the call I've had people
ask me and they say, you know,
00:06:38.93\00:06:42.56
I have friends who are health
care professionals or friends
00:06:42.56\00:06:45.97
who love to do
humanitarian work.
00:06:45.97\00:06:48.14
But some are not at this the
summer non-Christian, are they?
00:06:48.14\00:06:52.14
Can they play a
role at these clinics to?
00:06:52.14\00:06:54.28
>> Absolutely. Come all are
welcome. The excellent thing
00:06:54.28\00:06:59.25
that I like to share as
I've been working with different
00:06:59.25\00:07:01.52
churches, I have found
that actually non Adventists
00:07:01.52\00:07:06.15
volunteers. There are some that
have come to our clinics that
00:07:06.15\00:07:08.92
have volunteered and have
become that ties members of our
00:07:08.92\00:07:13.16
church. So invite them. This
is an excellent way for us to
00:07:13.16\00:07:16.83
partner together as the body
of Christ with believers and
00:07:16.83\00:07:21.10
nonbelievers and serve
the community to meet their
00:07:21.10\00:07:23.67
immediate needs.
00:07:23.67\00:07:24.71
>> A man. So we're not
just ministering only to the
00:07:24.71\00:07:28.11
community and the public
who comes in for the free health
00:07:28.11\00:07:30.25
care. We're also ministering to
the volunteers and for everyone
00:07:30.25\00:07:33.78
who comes in takes a part of
this. I believe that one of the
00:07:33.78\00:07:36.99
most effective way to
change the lives of health care
00:07:36.99\00:07:40.02
providers and volunteers is to
allow them to have a front row
00:07:40.02\00:07:43.93
seat to seeing people's lives
change through the power of the
00:07:43.93\00:07:47.40
love of Christ. So if you
know anyone who has a heart to
00:07:47.40\00:07:50.33
serve, if you have office staff
who would like to join you in
00:07:50.33\00:07:54.47
this endeavor, all are welcome
to volunteer. And so you saw
00:07:54.47\00:07:58.04
that QR code that was displayed
and a man free clinic Dot org
00:07:58.04\00:08:01.84
is to Ayman website. You can go
there to find information about
00:08:01.84\00:08:05.85
our most closely upcoming
clinics. And also if you want
00:08:05.85\00:08:10.52
to either volunteer
your services or if you're
00:08:10.52\00:08:13.72
interested in hosting an Amen,
Free clinic in your church,
00:08:13.72\00:08:17.86
you can submit
your request here.
00:08:17.86\00:08:21.73
We're doing something different
this year. Are we Nicole,
00:08:21.73\00:08:24.13
this not just business as usual
because for those of you who
00:08:24.13\00:08:26.94
may not be aware, the clinics
are free clinics have been
00:08:26.94\00:08:30.11
around for over a decade.
So this is nothing new. But
00:08:30.11\00:08:33.27
during the time of
COVID because of the pandemic,
00:08:33.27\00:08:35.44
we had to shut down a clinic
operations and essentially
00:08:35.44\00:08:38.58
we're rebuilding our clinic
operations from scratch again.
00:08:38.58\00:08:42.38
But this time we're
trying something different and
00:08:42.38\00:08:45.79
involves a certain project
in Michigan said the call, which
00:08:45.79\00:08:48.59
like to tell us about
what's happening in Michigan.
00:08:48.59\00:08:50.89
>> Absolutely. A lot of
exciting things are happening
00:08:50.89\00:08:54.36
with their Ayman free
clinics and what we're doing,
00:08:54.36\00:08:56.80
particularly in Michigan,
in addition to the clinics that
00:08:56.80\00:09:00.30
you can go ahead and register
now for and to host a clinic.
00:09:00.30\00:09:04.57
We are doing a new partnership
with the Michigan Conference of
00:09:04.57\00:09:09.04
7th Day Adventists and we
are growing our impact in the
00:09:09.04\00:09:14.28
community and our new
partnership through Michigan.
00:09:14.28\00:09:17.99
We are going to do 10 new
clinics with a subsidy. So
00:09:17.99\00:09:24.69
we're partnering with the
Michigan Conference to decrease
00:09:24.69\00:09:28.36
the cost an average clinic
costs about $30,000, which is a
00:09:28.36\00:09:32.40
lot for some churches and
smaller churches. So we wanted
00:09:32.40\00:09:36.74
to make this more assessable to
the average church and to help
00:09:36.74\00:09:42.01
further the gospel through
medical evangelism and in doing
00:09:42.01\00:09:45.68
so. We have through our
partnership, broken up the cost
00:09:45.68\00:09:49.62
to a 3rd for each entity. A
3rd of the cost is supported
00:09:49.62\00:09:54.32
by the Michigan Conference,
a 3rd through a man and a 3rd
00:09:54.32\00:09:57.86
through the local church.
So we're making this more
00:09:57.86\00:10:00.40
assessable through this pilot
program with the conference and
00:10:00.40\00:10:04.03
hopes that conferences and
entities throughout the U.S.
00:10:04.03\00:10:08.57
will catch the vision and help
us to continue to further that
00:10:08.57\00:10:12.07
medical leave and you work
through a made free clinics.
00:10:12.07\00:10:14.98
>> So partnering with
the conference has a twofold
00:10:14.98\00:10:17.05
purpose. One is to engage
pastors and church officials
00:10:17.05\00:10:20.72
more because this is a blended
work. We cannot do this just
00:10:20.72\00:10:24.12
with the health ministry by
itself. It has to the right arm
00:10:24.12\00:10:27.09
has to be linked to the body of
the gospel message has to work
00:10:27.09\00:10:29.96
with Costabile ministers.
00:10:29.96\00:10:31.69
But the second purpose is
that we want these Ayman free
00:10:31.69\00:10:34.63
clinics are not free. As Nicole
mentioned, the average 300
00:10:34.63\00:10:37.40
patient clinic costs $30,000.
Many churches cannot afford
00:10:37.40\00:10:40.94
this. So we want this to be
affordable for more churches.
00:10:40.94\00:10:44.04
And we're trying to
get conference involvement
00:10:44.04\00:10:46.78
in order to help subsidize
these costs so that clinics can
00:10:46.78\00:10:50.91
be available for more churches,
which may not be able to
00:10:50.91\00:10:53.75
otherwise hosted clinic
and in order to help this pilot
00:10:53.75\00:10:56.75
program off its feet, a man
is putting in $10,000 per clinic
00:10:56.75\00:11:00.96
as well in the
Michigan Conference. And we have
00:11:00.96\00:11:03.26
committed $100,000 total to
get this off the ground. And our
00:11:03.26\00:11:06.73
hope is to then use this
as a blueprint in 2 creating
00:11:06.73\00:11:10.63
partnerships with other
conferences across the country.
00:11:10.63\00:11:13.70
And the goal is to reach
a level of sustainability.
00:11:13.70\00:11:16.34
So going forward, Nicole,
what is what is the vision for?
00:11:16.34\00:11:20.98
Amen clinics? Yes.
00:11:20.98\00:11:23.18
>> The vision for a minute
for free clinics is for us to
00:11:23.18\00:11:26.48
create a way that we can
scale or a man free clinics and
00:11:26.48\00:11:30.82
empower the local churches
to host these clinics and become
00:11:30.82\00:11:34.76
affiliates of or Ayman
Free clinic program. And
00:11:34.76\00:11:38.89
particularly with of the
Michigan Partnership, we're
00:11:38.89\00:11:41.56
projecting in addition to
our other clinics to serve
00:11:41.56\00:11:44.67
approximately and work
alongside 5,000 community
00:11:44.67\00:11:48.90
members that are coming
up. So we're really, really
00:11:48.90\00:11:51.67
excited. So with our commitment
of $100,000, we're we're
00:11:51.67\00:11:56.58
excited to start this. New
partnership in our vision is
00:11:56.58\00:12:00.32
for us to grow a man
free clinics across the United
00:12:00.32\00:12:03.72
States and beyond.
00:12:03.72\00:12:06.82
>> We have realized that if
Amen Clinics is dependent on a
00:12:06.82\00:12:11.09
single team of individuals, no
matter how motivated, no matter
00:12:11.09\00:12:13.96
how hard working,
00:12:13.96\00:12:16.06
there's no way that one team
can do the hundreds 100's of
00:12:16.06\00:12:20.87
clinics that churches
around the country want to host.
00:12:20.87\00:12:25.21
So what we want to do is act as
the catalyst. We want to teach
00:12:25.21\00:12:29.14
the teachers. We want to help
churches and conferences and
00:12:29.14\00:12:32.95
leaders to catch this vision
of the plan to ministry to
00:12:32.95\00:12:36.58
experience what it's like to
have this kind of a free health
00:12:36.58\00:12:39.09
clinic in their church to
experience the results, to
00:12:39.09\00:12:42.62
catch that vision and to take
ownership of it so that men can
00:12:42.62\00:12:46.49
move on to train other churches
and other conferences. So we
00:12:46.49\00:12:50.13
want to start a movement.
That is what the vision is for
00:12:50.13\00:12:52.67
him in free clinics. We want
to work ourselves out of a job.
00:12:52.67\00:12:57.47
We want a local church. We want
the conferences and the unions
00:12:57.47\00:13:00.84
to take ownership of this
to make this an evangelistic
00:13:00.84\00:13:03.98
priority in their yearly cycle.
Amen. Yes, the men and so now
00:13:03.98\00:13:08.78
to highlight the impact that
our most recent Amen Clinic had
00:13:08.78\00:13:12.72
we'd like to play for you a
video now that gives you a real
00:13:12.72\00:13:15.86
of testimonies of what happened
in Calhoun, Georgia a few
00:13:15.86\00:13:19.13
months ago.
00:13:19.13\00:13:19.93
[MUSIC]
00:13:19.93\00:13:23.23
>> This has been amazing.
00:13:23.23\00:13:26.40
It has been a great opportunity
to get the community into the
00:13:26.40\00:13:31.34
church to see that we want
to help them. And it's just been
00:13:31.34\00:13:35.21
neat to see all of the needs
that have been met. One lady
00:13:35.21\00:13:38.08
told me today I've been
waiting 2 and a half years
00:13:38.08\00:13:41.92
to get my teeth look down
because they've been hurting me
00:13:41.92\00:13:44.92
that long. And she has. This
has been a godsend for me and
00:13:44.92\00:13:48.06
I'm like, yeah, this is awesome.
00:13:48.06\00:13:49.59
>> Yeah. Had the dental then
because I had been having the
00:13:49.59\00:13:52.43
party in my town. It was
scraping. May my my out and
00:13:52.43\00:13:55.63
everything I did that nobody
can do anything because I had
00:13:55.63\00:13:58.37
lost my taste buds. I couldn't
everything changed its taste.
00:13:58.37\00:14:03.34
The town was being cut out
paces in late in constantly.
00:14:03.34\00:14:06.88
You don't want to talk about
dance, too, because you know,
00:14:06.88\00:14:08.74
you can afford it and you just
keep. Thank him. I'll live with
00:14:08.74\00:14:12.01
this all live with this secret
smiling. I just write about
00:14:12.01\00:14:15.75
Mike Tyson not play a frantic
contact. Maine said I have
00:14:15.75\00:14:20.32
going to be doing this
Martin here and I was like, wow,
00:14:20.32\00:14:23.09
we've got to get down there and
I sat down with him. And in 30
00:14:23.09\00:14:25.99
minutes, peace moves. All these
ref ages, all meals in this
00:14:25.99\00:14:29.93
taste. I'm like, oh, my God.
I can't believe this is being
00:14:29.93\00:14:33.60
and then in my life can change.
In 30 man. I looked at my
00:14:33.60\00:14:37.71
mouth. They have been locked.
This its radiation from cancer
00:14:37.71\00:14:41.24
had just destroyed the
bottom part of my mouth.
00:14:41.24\00:14:43.88
>> And to thank the hit
going there, knew his time. And
00:14:43.88\00:14:46.88
though this second place, I've
got neighbors that made this
00:14:46.88\00:14:50.72
right now, but that didn't even
know anything about it. Well,
00:14:50.72\00:14:53.32
they want to maybe check it
out. And I said you better go
00:14:53.32\00:14:55.42
to this one. Nice and warm
it. They'll have another one.
00:14:55.42\00:14:58.13
I know people that sit indoors
won't get out because of their
00:14:58.13\00:15:01.60
case that can afford it.
They won't get out due to their
00:15:01.60\00:15:04.40
vision, somebodys running
all their errands or it's made.
00:15:04.40\00:15:08.24
So by 10 room, God had to
be working in these people that
00:15:08.24\00:15:12.07
pride with may. And everybody
that came up was so nasty.
00:15:12.07\00:15:15.34
So plays it. Well, I can't wait
to go until my family and other
00:15:15.34\00:15:18.95
people about have God work in
this town here. 7 that managed
00:15:18.95\00:15:22.48
it was it's been a real like
you could just see the people
00:15:22.48\00:15:25.09
coming in here. And they're
like, this is an answer to
00:15:25.09\00:15:26.86
prayer. We've been
eating this for so long.
00:15:26.86\00:15:30.43
>> So it gets my heart.
00:15:30.43\00:15:33.06
You know,
00:15:33.06\00:15:34.30
I just helps me realize that
God was through this the whole
00:15:34.30\00:15:36.73
process because you can see
that people are being blessed
00:15:36.73\00:15:41.17
and that they needed. And what
we've met our goal and on the
00:15:41.17\00:15:45.11
on the 300 that we aimed to
meet for this clinic, we just
00:15:45.11\00:15:49.11
we did want to keep it small
because it was our first time.
00:15:49.11\00:15:51.58
But I can see how easily if we
did this a second time around,
00:15:51.58\00:15:55.32
we could double our numbers
without even trying because now
00:15:55.32\00:15:58.79
that people have come in,
they've seen what we're doing.
00:15:58.79\00:16:01.22
We'll come again and they'll
bring their friends. So there's
00:16:01.22\00:16:03.96
definitely a need to.
00:16:03.96\00:16:05.69
>> Best part of the clinic says
it experiencing God and seeing
00:16:05.69\00:16:10.10
people blessed by the services
we provide. And everybody
00:16:10.10\00:16:14.04
should experience being a part
of an event like this because
00:16:14.04\00:16:18.94
God has created us to love
and to serve others. And there's
00:16:18.94\00:16:25.55
nothing quite like it. We're
serving each other when we're
00:16:25.55\00:16:28.52
setting up. We're serving
people as they're here and the
00:16:28.52\00:16:32.59
benefits and the experience
of following up with them
00:16:32.59\00:16:36.46
afterwards. It's all part of
creating relationships that are
00:16:36.46\00:16:40.53
lasting
00:16:40.53\00:16:41.70
and hopefully for attorney.
00:16:41.70\00:16:43.83
>> You know, the holistic
message of of the physical
00:16:43.83\00:16:47.40
wellness and the spiritual
coming together. So absolutely
00:16:47.40\00:16:51.11
I I think more than ever and
has as Christ Condit for Chris
00:16:51.11\00:16:55.34
Collins. I think we need to have
00:16:55.34\00:16:57.45
things like this.
00:16:57.45\00:16:59.01
>> So I've been in the 7
that his ministry this much 22nd
00:16:59.01\00:17:02.92
year.
00:17:02.92\00:17:03.99
>> And I have never seen a
clinic run this efficiently.
00:17:03.99\00:17:08.46
I appreciate everything
from the materials, online
00:17:08.46\00:17:12.49
registration process and the
deliberate idea of mingling the
00:17:12.49\00:17:18.07
gospel with the health
Ministry. I believe that there
00:17:18.07\00:17:21.34
are ways to express this
in multiple forms, but the way
00:17:21.34\00:17:24.94
Amen Clinic and others brings
people from all of the country
00:17:24.94\00:17:29.28
to make sure that people
are taking care of is a multiply
00:17:29.28\00:17:32.48
blessing to the body of Christ,
but also to the community.
00:17:32.48\00:17:36.12
There are scores of people
in this community who are better
00:17:36.12\00:17:38.39
as a result of the M and
playing. And I believe that.
00:17:38.39\00:17:41.19
>> This this initiative
ought to be one that should be
00:17:41.19\00:17:45.73
multiplied throughout our
country, water division and
00:17:45.73\00:17:49.96
also do territories
around this great World Church.
00:17:49.96\00:17:53.30
[MUSIC]
00:17:53.30\00:17:58.31
[MUSIC]
00:17:58.31\00:17:59.57
>> All right. I am here with
Georgia, Big Ellie and Georgia.
00:17:59.57\00:18:04.68
Can you please
introduce yourself
00:18:04.68\00:18:06.92
and to tell us
00:18:06.92\00:18:08.78
about the payment student
ministry in your involvement in
00:18:08.78\00:18:11.32
it?
00:18:11.32\00:18:12.59
>> As a as you say, my
name is Joyce. The I'm a medical
00:18:12.59\00:18:15.06
student at Loma Linda currently
between my 3rd and 4th year of
00:18:15.06\00:18:18.06
medical school.
00:18:18.06\00:18:19.29
I'm the president for
student chapter of the men
00:18:19.29\00:18:22.76
and we have a student after
a minute. Loma Linda that meets
00:18:22.76\00:18:27.14
every second of it of the month.
00:18:27.14\00:18:29.57
We've really focused on the
mentorship program. So we have
00:18:29.57\00:18:32.61
fellowship meals and
enters home. And it's a great
00:18:32.61\00:18:35.68
opportunity to get together
and meet like-minded people and,
00:18:35.68\00:18:40.48
you know, kind of the
mine to each other. Why we came
00:18:40.48\00:18:43.65
here and by the perceived
this particular training.
00:18:43.65\00:18:47.06
>> You mentioned then
the students in this game and
00:18:47.06\00:18:50.19
student chapter meet on the
second Saturday of every month
00:18:50.19\00:18:53.93
to meet at a mentor is home.
00:18:53.93\00:18:56.16
I guess that means that
there's such a thing as a mentor
00:18:56.16\00:18:58.37
assistant there. Can
you tell us more about that?
00:18:58.37\00:19:00.70
>> Yes, there is. So a lot
of physicians here even here and
00:19:00.70\00:19:06.07
dentists are the
majority of our mentors.
00:19:06.07\00:19:09.44
And you can find a lot of them
on the website, the ones that
00:19:09.44\00:19:14.65
are directly involved with our
chapter, the ones who are local
00:19:14.65\00:19:17.55
in the Melinda. But I know that
there's lots of other mentors
00:19:17.55\00:19:20.36
across the states, too.
00:19:20.36\00:19:23.99
>> When you're
00:19:23.99\00:19:25.79
talking about the experience
of the students from a student
00:19:25.79\00:19:28.10
standpoint, how important what
its would you say? It is for a
00:19:28.10\00:19:31.73
student to be plugged into
00:19:31.73\00:19:34.27
a mentor or to see an example
00:19:34.27\00:19:37.97
how to practice medicine
or dentistry in a way that
00:19:37.97\00:19:41.98
integrates your faith into
practice. How important is that
00:19:41.98\00:19:44.51
for you as a student's to shine?
00:19:44.51\00:19:46.45
>> I think it's very important
and I think it's very easy
00:19:46.45\00:19:49.55
cheering training to
kind of lose sight of why you
00:19:49.55\00:19:53.59
the reason that you're doing
what you're doing. So it's very
00:19:53.59\00:19:56.73
important in my mind to be
connected to people who are
00:19:56.73\00:20:01.03
further ahead of you
and who are practicing faith
00:20:01.03\00:20:04.73
in their practice and what kind
of how we structure it at the
00:20:04.73\00:20:09.37
fellowship meals is the in
the afternoon. We have time for
00:20:09.37\00:20:11.81
discussions and the mentors
off and help lead out in the
00:20:11.81\00:20:15.28
discussions and they
incorporate stories of how they
00:20:15.28\00:20:18.45
share their faith, that
patients and the family.
00:20:18.45\00:20:20.78
And it's just very
beautiful, very practical.
00:20:20.78\00:20:23.85
>> So the purpose of the
student ministry is to help
00:20:23.85\00:20:26.29
preserve the faith of students
through the rigors of training.
00:20:26.29\00:20:30.53
And for those of you who
went through medical training,
00:20:30.53\00:20:32.79
dental training, health care
training, you know, that it's
00:20:32.79\00:20:35.80
very easy to become a product
of the world. You know that
00:20:35.80\00:20:38.90
it's easy to lose division
that got his place in your heart
00:20:38.90\00:20:42.34
because you become so
one-dimensional and focus on
00:20:42.34\00:20:44.77
academics. And the goal of the
game in student chapter is to
00:20:44.77\00:20:49.08
help students to find other
like-minded students who have
00:20:49.08\00:20:51.71
this passion to encourage each
other, not to lose that vision
00:20:51.71\00:20:54.45
and to plug them in
with faculty with full-time
00:20:54.45\00:20:57.45
practitioners in the
surrounding area, improper
00:20:57.45\00:20:59.35
practices who maintain that
fission and apply it in their
00:20:59.35\00:21:02.49
daily lives. So now,
Georgia, if someone here
00:21:02.49\00:21:07.13
I felt impressed to become a
mentor to offer their guidance.
00:21:07.13\00:21:12.20
There was some of the council
to students to nurture this
00:21:12.20\00:21:15.10
next generation. What can
they do to become involved as a
00:21:15.10\00:21:17.81
mentor?
00:21:17.81\00:21:19.54
>> Not exactly sure. All the
steps that they would have to
00:21:19.54\00:21:21.84
take that there is a mentorship
page. I'm on the websites.
00:21:21.84\00:21:26.88
I'm assuming just look at the
website and find out how to do
00:21:26.88\00:21:30.15
it.
00:21:30.15\00:21:31.72
>> You go to a man St ate
out or G haha or mentorship.
00:21:31.72\00:21:36.62
And there is. And if you have
the ability to both browse to
00:21:36.62\00:21:40.80
catalog of current mentors or
to sign up as a mentor yourself
00:21:40.80\00:21:45.20
and you would submit your
information, obviously your
00:21:45.20\00:21:47.87
background, but also areas of
interest that you have in terms
00:21:47.87\00:21:51.84
of ministries. So the students
who are interested in seeing
00:21:51.84\00:21:55.54
things that you may be
experienced and can single you
00:21:55.54\00:21:58.65
out as someone they want
to contact. So, for example,
00:21:58.65\00:22:01.42
if you have significant
experience or interest in
00:22:01.42\00:22:04.62
overseas missions or if you
have experience running your
00:22:04.62\00:22:07.92
own practice with a mission
focus, these are things that
00:22:07.92\00:22:11.13
students may want to hone in on
to say, oh, I want to reach out
00:22:11.13\00:22:14.00
to this meant to art. So if
you feel impressed to offer your
00:22:14.00\00:22:18.33
services and to to become a
name and mentor, I encourage
00:22:18.33\00:22:21.70
you to visit a messy dot org
and to sign up to be a mentor,
00:22:21.70\00:22:27.11
Georgia, for students who
may not be aware that a student
00:22:27.11\00:22:30.05
ministry exists. What can
they do to participate in the
00:22:30.05\00:22:33.42
student Ministry Weather?
00:22:33.42\00:22:35.82
I Lo Melinda or at a
non-local into school.
00:22:35.82\00:22:39.19
>> Well, if you're at Loma
Linda, we send out e-mails to
00:22:39.19\00:22:42.62
the medical school in dental
school, which are the schools
00:22:42.62\00:22:45.43
that were targeting with the
mentorship program. So you'll
00:22:45.43\00:22:48.56
be aware of our events coming
up through the mail. We have a
00:22:48.56\00:22:53.13
booth here. It's the 3rd test.
It's the one that doesn't have
00:22:53.13\00:22:56.64
anything on it at the moment
00:22:56.64\00:22:58.57
that will be standing there.
And I've already met a couple
00:22:58.57\00:23:01.88
of students who aren't from the
line and showed interest in the
00:23:01.88\00:23:05.58
ministry and want to, you know,
have something similar like
00:23:05.58\00:23:08.85
this at their schools. So we'll
we'll exchange details that
00:23:08.85\00:23:11.55
way.
00:23:11.55\00:23:12.69
>> You may see the name a Mesa
am. Yes, that stands for the
00:23:12.69\00:23:16.73
Adventist Medical Evangelists
in the student association.
00:23:16.73\00:23:19.69
That is the name of the student
chapter of the men at Loma
00:23:19.69\00:23:23.00
Linda. But we would love to
start these chapters elsewhere
00:23:23.00\00:23:26.13
as well. And we're fully
aware that there are medical
00:23:26.13\00:23:28.50
students, dental students,
other health care profession,
00:23:28.50\00:23:30.64
students who go to secular
programs who feel like islands
00:23:30.64\00:23:34.38
of faith in a sea of unbelief.
And we want to create a
00:23:34.38\00:23:37.41
thriving online community
for them as well. And so if you
00:23:37.41\00:23:40.78
want to be involved in our
EMA Network of students, please
00:23:40.78\00:23:43.85
reach out to
either Georgia or myself,
00:23:43.85\00:23:46.42
come visit the booth and
see how you can get connected.
00:23:46.42\00:23:48.92
We have various
resources for you.
00:23:48.92\00:23:51.39
So now, Georgia,
00:23:51.39\00:23:53.16
at the end of the day,
what impact has a man had
00:23:53.16\00:23:57.90
for you and for
students that, you know?
00:23:57.90\00:24:01.34
>> I think it's just been
a great, great way to connect
00:24:01.34\00:24:04.84
with people who are
like-minded. Remind each other,
00:24:04.84\00:24:07.34
encourage each other along the
way. It's it's always lovely to
00:24:07.34\00:24:10.98
fellowship and have.
00:24:10.98\00:24:12.35
>> Free food and 7. He them
come. Yes, it's our it's not
00:24:12.35\00:24:19.99
just about the food,
I'm sure, but it is it.
00:24:19.99\00:24:22.89
>> And we just love hanging
out. The mentors are wonderful.
00:24:22.89\00:24:26.70
Just the hospitality
that they've shown us. Their
00:24:26.70\00:24:28.83
humility always
blows me away every month.
00:24:28.83\00:24:31.80
And then, of course, without
the support of the mentors and
00:24:31.80\00:24:36.50
the members, if they meant
students would be able to come
00:24:36.50\00:24:38.84
and participate here on the
weekend conference. And I know
00:24:38.84\00:24:42.71
this is a great time
for revival for many of us.
00:24:42.71\00:24:46.88
>> With all the students in the
audience, please stand for me
00:24:46.88\00:24:49.45
right now. If you are a
student who are who is here on a
00:24:49.45\00:24:52.45
student's subsidy,
could you please stand?
00:24:52.45\00:24:56.26
They represent the future
00:25:06.77\00:25:08.74
and bake. They could not
be here without your support.
00:25:08.74\00:25:13.11
So thank you for those of you
who have donated generously to
00:25:13.11\00:25:17.01
enable students like
these to tend this weekend.
00:25:17.01\00:25:20.55
It's now get before we end
here, too. I know that we have
00:25:20.55\00:25:23.72
a special guest bit like to
call upon the stage. Is that
00:25:23.72\00:25:26.12
right?
00:25:26.12\00:25:27.42
>> Yes, this is my friend to me
who actually went to undergrad
00:25:27.42\00:25:30.39

she's currently at 30 and a good
00:25:30.39\00:25:33.76
student. And she would like to
share how a man who is blessed
00:25:33.76\00:25:37.23
terror as well.
00:25:37.23\00:25:39.33
>> So welcome. You mean, can
you tell us about who you who
00:25:39.33\00:25:41.94
you are and what level what
state you are in your training?
00:25:41.94\00:25:45.41
Hi, my name is you make a myth
there during medical student.
00:25:45.41\00:25:48.61
So their medical school so
you need how has attending the
00:25:48.61\00:25:52.35
conference this
year impacted your life
00:25:52.35\00:25:56.52
one more step towards
life, turn you away from death
00:25:56.52\00:26:03.43
in terms of what the
Lord has done for you. In your
00:26:03.43\00:26:07.13
experience here at the
conference so far, can you tell
00:26:07.13\00:26:09.80
us what impact the fact that
donors have allowed you on a
00:26:09.80\00:26:14.90
subsidy to come here
without having to pay?
00:26:14.90\00:26:18.47
What has that done to
bring a blessing to your life?
00:26:18.47\00:26:21.51
>> As I was growing up and
as my upbringing was not very
00:26:25.71\00:26:30.19
pleasant and domestic violence,
my father's Michael Holley and
00:26:30.19\00:26:34.19
that
00:26:34.19\00:26:35.36
so financial struggles. And
and always I wanted to I have no
00:26:35.36\00:26:40.06
home. But finally, I met God in
my life and it was 23 and long
00:26:40.06\00:26:44.17
story short. And God has
given me this reason to become a
00:26:44.17\00:26:47.47
medical missionary. And
that got from a medical school,
00:26:47.47\00:26:50.64
the money into medical school.
And I started to journey,
00:26:50.64\00:26:53.71
but the journey was a lot
a lot a lot harder than I had
00:26:53.71\00:26:57.28
thought. Analysts I started and
00:26:57.28\00:27:00.42
with a justify my bully was
just has the sixmonth back then
00:27:00.42\00:27:06.25
and also my husband at the same
time, the same program, medical
00:27:06.25\00:27:09.36
student.
00:27:09.36\00:27:10.53
And it was really, really hard
and financially was burdensome
00:27:10.53\00:27:15.33
and then physical stress
and mental stress, emotional
00:27:15.33\00:27:18.30
stress. And it was overwhelming.
00:27:18.30\00:27:21.77
There are some seaside of
cars involved, but then still I
00:27:21.77\00:27:25.17
could make it to that 30 year.
But then I started my surgery
00:27:25.17\00:27:28.68
rotation about 2 months ago.
00:27:28.68\00:27:30.81
And but there was really a time
that I wanted to run away from
00:27:30.81\00:27:34.18
the hospital and then losing
a hope and then got I don't know
00:27:34.18\00:27:38.19
why I'm here and the what
and the why I should become a
00:27:38.19\00:27:41.19
doctor. I was losing
hope. And also I was losing the
00:27:41.19\00:27:44.86
purpose of my life also as well.
00:27:44.86\00:27:47.73
I was struggling,
struggling, cry and cry,
00:27:47.73\00:27:50.67
but I couldn't really find
any come for it. And then, but
00:27:50.67\00:27:54.90
>> in between and then and then
and then some meetings and kind
00:27:54.90\00:27:58.71
of a kind of refreshing to me
as to what kind of reminded me
00:27:58.71\00:28:02.21
why I was here. So when Georgia
asked me, if you catch, if I
00:28:02.21\00:28:05.85
could share my testimony with
the people here, I said yes,
00:28:05.85\00:28:11.39
and it got rid of the wars and
actually was really got to the
00:28:11.39\00:28:15.52
point that he set the last week.
00:28:15.52\00:28:21.40
I was one step away from death.
00:28:21.40\00:28:25.53
One more step. I
can end this pain.
00:28:25.53\00:28:29.80
My hands are shaking.
00:28:29.80\00:28:31.81
There was a severe struggle
between good and evil between
00:28:31.81\00:28:35.68
God and Satan. Satan jump off
00:28:35.68\00:28:41.25
made me and offered this prayer.
00:28:41.25\00:28:44.65
God, please help me.
00:28:44.65\00:28:46.76
I was struggling. There
was such a hard struggle
00:28:46.76\00:28:51.36
finally got long
00:28:51.36\00:28:53.09
and then I stepped down
00:28:53.09\00:28:56.00
and gosh showed me the verses
00:28:56.00\00:28:58.43
and I could injure a few more
dollars. But again, the pain
00:28:58.43\00:29:02.44
came that I could use to
find the meaning of my life.
00:29:02.44\00:29:05.87
And then the following day
00:29:05.87\00:29:08.18
us Monday, it happened
last Abba Monday. I got a result
00:29:08.18\00:29:13.25
myself since surgery
self-exam. I felt by one point
00:29:13.25\00:29:18.19
for me, it was a sign.
This is it. Let's quit.
00:29:18.19\00:29:22.36
And that a meeting
with a D doctor could Tonys
00:29:22.36\00:29:26.53
and he was telling me you can
take retake the exam at the end
00:29:26.53\00:29:30.20
of 3rd year. But for me, that
was it. I told him I would like
00:29:30.20\00:29:34.80
to discontinue medical school
00:29:34.80\00:29:39.24
you made. This is such a life
changing decision. Let's not
00:29:39.24\00:29:42.88
make a decision right now.
00:29:42.88\00:29:44.88
I said, OK,
00:29:44.88\00:29:47.75
I cried, cried and screamed
at got got as such the pay
00:29:47.75\00:29:53.52
and you seem to be complete
in silence. It might pay.
00:29:53.52\00:29:58.23
I did not know why I should
leave. You created me without
00:29:58.23\00:30:01.93
my agreement. But I'm going
through the suffering. You need
00:30:01.93\00:30:05.57
to answer my questions.
But he didn't seem to answer my
00:30:05.57\00:30:08.74
question.
00:30:08.74\00:30:10.17
The time was coming. I had
to decide whether or not to come
00:30:10.17\00:30:13.21
to this meeting were not.
00:30:13.21\00:30:15.31
And I wanted to cancel.
It was Thursday. 04:00PM.
00:30:15.31\00:30:19.08
I was to steal this.
It should I go or not,
00:30:19.08\00:30:23.08
but financially and that we
would we didn't have to worry
00:30:23.08\00:30:26.25
about this because a Mensa and
MN conference paid all this for
00:30:26.25\00:30:29.99
us financially where Britain
but and this. We didn't have to
00:30:29.99\00:30:33.70
worry about it
00:30:33.70\00:30:35.26
but had to make a decision.
00:30:35.26\00:30:37.00
I didn't want to anything which
was related to thought I hit.
00:30:37.00\00:30:41.47
You got I complain to thought
God, you put me in this 12,
00:30:41.47\00:30:45.91
even you stop me
from killing myself.
00:30:45.91\00:30:48.74
You have to
answer this question.
00:30:48.74\00:30:51.28
I was listening to one of the
testimonies and then a panel of
00:30:51.28\00:30:54.35
the guests was speaking coding
Ezekiel Chapter 16, 6 saying
00:30:54.35\00:30:58.99
that you in a lot less.
00:30:58.99\00:31:02.16
I turned it off because that
was the most painful message I
00:31:02.16\00:31:05.69
could there
00:31:05.69\00:31:06.93
got you didn't even me a
pain killer. But you still keep
00:31:06.93\00:31:10.67
asking me to live
to see its not fair.
00:31:10.67\00:31:14.30
I asked in my husband, please
pray if we could come here on
00:31:14.30\00:31:19.04
not if he should
come here or not.
00:31:19.04\00:31:21.24
My husband told me I don't
know why, but I feel strongly
00:31:21.24\00:31:25.45
impressed that we should come.
00:31:25.45\00:31:28.15
So even I really didn't want
to come. But I always had the
00:31:28.15\00:31:31.49
feeling that this really
feeling I have to come. So I K
00:31:31.49\00:31:37.59
and then yesterday it was
listening to the doctor at the
00:31:37.59\00:31:41.03
Scott Nelson is the story.
00:31:41.03\00:31:45.50
Where's the TSA? Is Haiti
00:31:45.50\00:31:48.57
ice El Pais? Also at the
same time, I could see Healy
00:31:48.57\00:31:53.71
and little bit and the
debate. I could feel that I was
00:31:53.71\00:31:57.98
reviving again
00:31:57.98\00:31:59.81
and in the afternoon for
the first time in 2 weeks I was
00:31:59.81\00:32:04.79
able to sleep.
00:32:04.79\00:32:06.79
I was stress.
00:32:06.79\00:32:09.02
I was says this has to decide
whether they should to Georgia
00:32:09.02\00:32:11.86
and Doctor Ihsan. I
cannot share this testimony.
00:32:11.86\00:32:16.16
I took a nap and I walk
off right after I was waking up
00:32:16.16\00:32:20.97
Samaritan a story of this
and everything came to my might.
00:32:20.97\00:32:25.27
And I was wondering, why should
I come here? And then he was
00:32:25.27\00:32:28.28
the answer
00:32:28.28\00:32:30.31
prepared this summer
heat and good neighbors.
00:32:30.31\00:32:33.95
You guys
00:32:33.95\00:32:36.28
paid for this meal
00:32:36.28\00:32:38.35
and this launching I could come
00:32:38.35\00:32:42.46
rest
00:32:42.46\00:32:43.63
and rejuvenating 8
and seeking got a game
00:32:43.63\00:32:47.40
and cost
00:32:47.40\00:32:48.70
in cross again.
00:32:48.70\00:32:51.93
I'm going to have a meeting
this coming Monday, but doctor
00:32:51.93\00:32:54.80
could Danis.
00:32:54.80\00:32:56.64
I know the answer, but to say
00:32:56.64\00:33:00.11
I can do today
00:33:00.11\00:33:02.24
and this is it your
chapter 16 6 and I can read it
00:33:02.24\00:33:06.72
this time.
00:33:06.72\00:33:08.02
It sounds like this.
00:33:08.02\00:33:09.75
Jesus
00:33:09.75\00:33:11.02
in a lot
00:33:11.02\00:33:12.62
says to me
00:33:12.62\00:33:16.19
and I say
00:33:16.19\00:33:18.36
I do my sword
00:33:18.36\00:33:20.26
under the 8th.
00:33:20.26\00:33:22.66
Thank you very much for your
generous support and I really
00:33:22.66\00:33:25.77
appreciate it.
00:33:25.77\00:33:28.00
Thank you so much,
00:33:28.00\00:33:29.84
France.
00:33:48.32\00:33:50.19
The students are future.
00:33:50.19\00:33:52.99
This is why we do what we do.
00:33:52.99\00:33:55.63
>> If it wasn't for your
generous support, we could not
00:33:55.63\00:33:58.83
offer subsidies to people
like you need to come here
00:33:58.83\00:34:02.14
who are at a tipping point
in their lives where there's a
00:34:02.14\00:34:05.27
spiritual warfare going
on. And by attending this
00:34:05.27\00:34:07.71
conference, she felt the desire
00:34:07.71\00:34:10.65
to both go on in
life and in her academics.
00:34:10.65\00:34:15.15
So praise God for
how he sees. And then
00:34:15.15\00:34:17.89
I also want to remind you,
00:34:17.89\00:34:20.72
I was mentored by the
organization as a student.
00:34:20.72\00:34:24.16
And I cannot imagine that
one day I would be on the stage
00:34:24.16\00:34:27.00
talking to you as the president
of the organization since some
00:34:27.00\00:34:31.03
ways you can. You can consider
me those first fruits of your
00:34:31.03\00:34:34.54
generous, giving
00:34:34.54\00:34:36.37
his focus and
accomplishing 3 things.
00:34:40.24\00:34:43.01
We want to
motivate train and equip
00:34:43.01\00:34:45.61
everyone. But starting
with healthcare professionals
00:34:45.61\00:34:49.25
on how to conduct
effective medical ministry work.
00:34:49.25\00:34:53.42
We want to ensure that when
we do medical ministry work,
00:34:53.42\00:34:56.69
it is always combined with
ministry. The blended work is
00:34:56.69\00:35:00.66
so essential
00:35:00.66\00:35:02.76
and last, but not least we want
to inspire the next generation
00:35:02.76\00:35:06.94
because that is our future.
00:35:06.94\00:35:08.77
Everything that we do is focus
on fulfilling one or more of
00:35:08.77\00:35:12.61
these 3 key objectives.
00:35:12.61\00:35:16.21
You see, we're excited to see
all the doors that got us open
00:35:16.21\00:35:18.81
to us in terms of the
various ministry projects we've
00:35:18.81\00:35:21.35
outlined for you today from
clinics to the student ministry
00:35:21.35\00:35:25.02
toward media projects
00:35:25.02\00:35:28.22
into the sand. We ask for
your prayers. That lives will be
00:35:28.22\00:35:32.09
changed as a result.
00:35:32.09\00:35:34.40
But a man is a
donor supported ministry.
00:35:34.40\00:35:37.40
The only reason why we've
come this far is because of your
00:35:37.40\00:35:40.00
generous giving. And the only
way we will continue is because
00:35:40.00\00:35:43.17
of what the holy Spirit
does through you to continue to
00:35:43.17\00:35:45.84
generously support us.
00:35:45.84\00:35:48.34
And as you know, there's
a large cost associated with
00:35:48.34\00:35:50.85
organizing a
conference such as this
00:35:50.85\00:35:53.72
post-pandemic, the cup
of everything has gone up,
00:35:53.72\00:35:56.92
including hotels
and conference rooms
00:35:56.92\00:36:00.32
and in order to keep
00:36:00.32\00:36:02.16
the price point and a place
where it successful to the most
00:36:02.16\00:36:05.73
number of people,
00:36:05.73\00:36:07.13
their registration fee that we
charge for this conference does
00:36:07.13\00:36:10.17
not cover our costs.
00:36:10.17\00:36:14.44
We also have over 100 students,
missionaries, pastors, trainees
00:36:14.44\00:36:19.71
and volunteers here who are
on a subsidy from amen. So they
00:36:19.71\00:36:23.48
can attend,
including people like you mean
00:36:23.48\00:36:26.48
and the total cost of
subsidizing all these people to
00:36:26.48\00:36:28.92
attend.
00:36:28.92\00:36:29.92
He's over
$215,000. This year alone.
00:36:29.92\00:36:34.46
We do this so that lives can
be changed. We believe that this
00:36:34.46\00:36:37.69
is a worthy investment returns
of which will not be seen in
00:36:37.69\00:36:41.56
this lifetime alone. But
also all the tourney team
00:36:41.56\00:36:47.37
following the pandemic
donations have been down.
00:36:47.37\00:36:51.81
And since then, we've been
quickly burning through our
00:36:51.81\00:36:53.91
financial reserves because we
have committed to projects like
00:36:53.91\00:36:57.65
this one in Michigan with
the amen Clinics where a man is
00:36:57.65\00:37:00.92
putting $100,000 down in
order to encourage and inspire
00:37:00.92\00:37:05.69
churches and the
Michigan Conference to engage in
00:37:05.69\00:37:08.39
effective medical ministry work.
00:37:08.39\00:37:10.46
We've hired 2 new full-time
staff in order to make these
00:37:10.46\00:37:13.26
clinics happen.
00:37:13.26\00:37:14.66
And unless we have a
substantial increase in
00:37:14.66\00:37:16.90
donations, now, a man will
not be able to continue these
00:37:16.90\00:37:20.64
initiatives that we
started in the very near future.
00:37:20.64\00:37:24.71
In addition to this, as you've
seen throughout the conference,
00:37:24.71\00:37:27.11
we have various media projects
that we're excited about the
00:37:27.11\00:37:29.51
waiting room videos that
you're seeing. We would love to
00:37:29.51\00:37:32.28
complete this. And
we're partnering with other
00:37:32.28\00:37:34.75
ministries such as amazing
facts end in sight. But we do
00:37:34.75\00:37:38.19
need funds to
complete the project.
00:37:38.19\00:37:40.56
The the devotional cities that
many of you have participating
00:37:40.56\00:37:44.09
in filming.
00:37:44.09\00:37:45.49
This is also an additional
expense. But we believe that it
00:37:45.49\00:37:48.46
merits the finances because
we want to keep people inspired,
00:37:48.46\00:37:52.17
engage in being mission
true all throughout the year.
00:37:52.17\00:37:56.81
So to cover all of these
costs, we need to raise at least
00:37:56.81\00:38:00.84
$450,000.
00:38:00.84\00:38:03.91
That is our need. And I am
fully confident that the Lord
00:38:03.91\00:38:07.02
will provide because
this is his ministry.
00:38:07.02\00:38:10.09
I believe that he has placed
upon our hearts to engage in
00:38:10.09\00:38:13.36
these projects because he owns
a cattle on 1000 hills and he
00:38:13.36\00:38:17.13
has 1000 ways of providing for
us which we know nothing off.
00:38:17.13\00:38:20.93
So that's why I stand here
today to ask you to prayerfully
00:38:20.93\00:38:24.03
consider if God is
moving on your heart
00:38:24.03\00:38:27.67
to donate generously.
00:38:27.67\00:38:29.87
Have you been blessed by
anything this weekend? Have you
00:38:29.87\00:38:32.57
been blessed by being here?
00:38:32.57\00:38:35.21
Prayerfully? Consider if God
is asking you to contribute to
00:38:35.21\00:38:38.91
this ministry,
00:38:38.91\00:38:40.22
if you believe in our vision
of spreading the gospel medical
00:38:40.22\00:38:43.65
missionary, work through the
arm, affected medical ministry
00:38:43.65\00:38:47.32
and for inspiring and equipping
and training health care
00:38:47.32\00:38:50.36
workers to do this.
00:38:50.36\00:38:52.26
And I ask you to
stand with us now
00:38:52.26\00:38:54.73
on your seat. There should be
an envelope that you can use to
00:38:54.73\00:38:57.80
fill out a donation.
00:38:57.80\00:38:59.67
You can also donate
electronically by scanning the
00:38:59.67\00:39:02.57
QR code on your envelope
or there will be one that's
00:39:02.57\00:39:05.84
displayed on screen shortly.
So you can donate that way as
00:39:05.84\00:39:08.74
well.
00:39:08.74\00:39:09.94
If you don't happen to have an
envelope or if you don't have a
00:39:09.94\00:39:13.88
pen, please raise your hand so
that the ushers can come by and
00:39:13.88\00:39:18.05
giving an envelope or a pen.
00:39:18.05\00:39:21.12
We're going to have a
special music number now.
00:39:21.12\00:39:24.13
It's to give you time to
fill out your donation slips.
00:39:24.13\00:39:27.60
But during this time,
even if you cannot donate your
00:39:27.60\00:39:30.53
finances, I pray that
you will donate your prayers,
00:39:30.53\00:39:35.00
pray that the Holy Spirit will
move on the hearts of those who
00:39:35.00\00:39:37.77
have the ability to give
to give generously so far as
00:39:37.77\00:39:41.64
they're called.
00:39:41.64\00:39:42.98
And once the song is over, I'm
going to come out again and I'm
00:39:42.98\00:39:46.61
going to pray
00:39:46.61\00:39:48.05
pretty offerings and they will
collect the offerings, followed
00:39:48.05\00:39:50.85
by another musical number.
00:39:50.85\00:39:52.59
So thank you.

00:44:49.48\00:44:51.49
Heavenly father,
00:44:51.49\00:44:53.62
we thank you
00:44:53.62\00:44:55.42
for giving us the
opportunity to get back to you.
00:44:55.42\00:44:59.66
You own everything
00:44:59.66\00:45:02.13
and it makes no sense to
say that we're giving to you.
00:45:02.13\00:45:05.53
But by allowing us to give
00:45:05.53\00:45:07.67
to causes that at
Seoul's your kingdom,
00:45:07.67\00:45:10.94
you tell us that when we do
for the least of these, we have
00:45:10.94\00:45:13.84
done to you.
00:45:13.84\00:45:15.41
So thank you, Lord, for the
blessing of being able to get
00:45:15.41\00:45:20.72
whatever amount was
cannot collect it down.
00:45:20.72\00:45:23.72
I think you
00:45:23.72\00:45:25.19
I think you because it is
your provision for this ministry
00:45:25.19\00:45:28.96
and it is your promise
that as long as we let you lead,
00:45:28.96\00:45:32.76
you will guide
us into the future.
00:45:32.76\00:45:35.13
And you will teach us to rely
on you every step of the way
00:45:35.13\00:45:40.40
our lives this
ministry, everything that we do,
00:45:40.40\00:45:44.11
he longs to you.
00:45:44.11\00:45:45.84
This is yours, heavenly father.
So we latest gift at your alter
00:45:45.84\00:45:50.38
and we asked the father
that we will use these resources
00:45:50.38\00:45:54.78
to usher in your
kingdom here on Earth.
00:45:54.78\00:45:57.79
He lives be change for eternity
and decisions made for you
00:45:57.79\00:46:01.59
as a result of what was given
today in Jesus name. We pray.

00:54:54.02\00:54:56.99
isn't wonderful, too.
00:54:56.99\00:54:59.46
Hear from the most
important people in the room.
00:54:59.46\00:55:03.73
No offense, but those
children are pretty special.
00:55:03.73\00:55:07.54
And I think off so much for
them. I had the opportunity of
00:55:07.54\00:55:11.04
speaking for them last
night and I was blessed and
00:55:11.04\00:55:15.68
privileged and highly favored.
They are a blessing. In fact,
00:55:15.68\00:55:19.11
while I was backstage, one
little friend I made Hylka said
00:55:19.11\00:55:23.59
right for you
00:55:23.59\00:55:26.25
and that kind of made by whole
day to kind of made my home
00:55:26.25\00:55:30.09
time here. So I just want
to thank God again for the
00:55:30.09\00:55:32.69
privilege of being with
you today. I never counted
00:55:32.69\00:55:37.90
a thing to be taken likely
to say anything really for God.
00:55:37.90\00:55:42.44
He is so much better than I
am so much better than we are.
00:55:42.44\00:55:46.78
And I'm always honored whenever
I get an opportunity to say
00:55:46.78\00:55:50.18
anything forgot. I like the
mission of this organization
00:55:50.18\00:55:54.58
to Motivate train and equip
7th Day Adventists physicians,
00:55:54.58\00:55:58.25
dentists and other
health professionals
00:55:58.25\00:56:00.69
to team with pastors, all
pastor to team with pastors and
00:56:00.69\00:56:04.06
members. I like that
00:56:04.06\00:56:05.53
uniting the church to Restore
Christ Ministry of Healing to
00:56:05.53\00:56:08.73
the world.
Hastening is returned.
00:56:08.73\00:56:13.40
I would dare say that the
organization I represent the
00:56:13.40\00:56:16.97
LNG white estate.
00:56:16.97\00:56:18.77
I think Ellen White would
be okay with that mission.
00:56:18.77\00:56:22.14
I really think she would.
00:56:22.14\00:56:23.78
And I bring you greetings
on behalf of my director,
00:56:23.78\00:56:27.38
Doctor, Merlin Bird and Doctor
Tim Poor EA Hour vice director
00:56:27.38\00:56:31.89
into the global Ministry of the
whitest state. It is an honor
00:56:31.89\00:56:35.32
and a privilege to represent
that a state and to be in
00:56:35.32\00:56:38.06
partnership
00:56:38.06\00:56:39.19
with a man and this service
this morning. I want to thank
00:56:39.19\00:56:42.56
your President,
00:56:42.56\00:56:44.37
doctor, Shannon, the entire
leadership team for reaching
00:56:44.37\00:56:48.00
down in the bottom of
the barrel and picking me
00:56:48.00\00:56:51.17
to share with you this this
word this morning. The hours
00:56:51.17\00:56:55.48
far spent. The clock says I've
only got 22 minutes. It's a lot
00:56:55.48\00:56:59.35
less than they promised me.
00:56:59.35\00:57:01.32
But if you would allow me to
jaywalk through this message,
00:57:01.32\00:57:03.85
I think God will still
speak to his people. A man
00:57:03.85\00:57:07.26
let us Bow.
Father God, thank you.
00:57:07.26\00:57:09.89
We praise you. We honor you as
we turn our attention. Haven't
00:57:09.89\00:57:12.59
word. Would you please speak
to us in the name of Jesus and
00:57:12.59\00:57:16.43
take all credit.
00:57:16.43\00:57:18.50
Take all glory. If there be any
and all praise in the name of
00:57:18.50\00:57:22.94
Jesus? I pray. Amen.
00:57:22.94\00:57:25.27
I'm thankful for my family.
I know who is praying for me
00:57:25.27\00:57:28.71
who are praying for me.
Encouraging me even now with
00:57:28.71\00:57:31.51
their thoughts.
00:57:31.51\00:57:32.85
The Bible says in Matthew
Chapter 6 in verse, 33 but seek
00:57:32.85\00:57:36.05
first,
00:57:36.05\00:57:38.29
the kingdom of God
and his righteousness and
00:57:38.29\00:57:42.99
also
00:57:42.99\00:57:44.66
most
00:57:44.66\00:57:46.19
all these things shall be added.
00:57:46.19\00:57:50.93
The year was 19. 0, 1, April
19 to be exact on that morning.
00:57:50.93\00:57:55.80
Ellen White Rose early 01:00AM.
00:57:55.80\00:58:00.58
It was the time of the 34th
General Conference session held
00:58:00.58\00:58:04.48
at the Tabernacle in
Battle Creek, Michigan as
00:58:04.48\00:58:07.28
consequential a meeting in the
church as there has ever been.
00:58:07.28\00:58:12.55
She had not been to a GC
session for 10 years and she
00:58:12.55\00:58:16.22
arrived with the
bee in her bonnet
00:58:16.22\00:58:19.49
in the preliminary meetings
of church leaders, one held on
00:58:19.49\00:58:23.13
March 31st held a Ji Daniels
himself recently back from
00:58:23.13\00:58:27.40
Australia. Axed her to say
a few words. She said I would
00:58:27.40\00:58:30.81
prefer not to speak today.
00:58:30.81\00:58:35.44
She said it's not that I
don't have something to say. I'm
00:58:35.44\00:58:37.91
pointing her. I
had something to say.
00:58:37.91\00:58:42.75
Her cryptic remark speak
Builder. Daniels is mind and
00:58:42.75\00:58:47.42
and unsettled the audience and
he prevailed upon her to to to
00:58:47.42\00:58:51.19
to go ahead and say something.
Then she said this. She said
00:58:51.19\00:58:54.46
this now should the mind of one
man or the minds of a few men
00:58:54.46\00:58:58.27
regarded sufficient in wisdom
and power to control the work
00:58:58.27\00:59:02.97
of the church?
00:59:02.97\00:59:04.87
I think you probably
regretted telling her to speak.
00:59:04.87\00:59:09.18
She said this was not the high
standard that God intended for
00:59:09.18\00:59:12.68
his people. The issue of
that day was centralization of
00:59:12.68\00:59:15.55
thought in the church in Battle
Creek. Among the few leaders of
00:59:15.55\00:59:19.72
the church, stifling diversity
and creativity and growth and
00:59:19.72\00:59:23.36
efficiency needed for God's
work to flourish. She wondered
00:59:23.36\00:59:26.59
aloud. Why is it that fields
will not open for the work of
00:59:26.59\00:59:29.93
God and why is it that
that there was money? First, the
00:59:29.93\00:59:33.30
leaders in the works such
as those at the time in the
00:59:33.30\00:59:35.64
publishing ministry, she
wondered why people were not
00:59:35.64\00:59:38.34
standing on the battle of
Prince Emmanuel. She wondered
00:59:38.34\00:59:41.48
why they were not standing
like the needle to the poll.
00:59:41.48\00:59:45.68
I said she came
with a bee in her bonnet,
00:59:45.68\00:59:48.92
but that's not
all. Sister White said.
00:59:48.92\00:59:52.85
She said some other things as
well. She pointed out that God
00:59:52.85\00:59:56.06
did not want the medical work
separated from the gospel work
00:59:56.06\01:00:00.73
that the medical minister
manned mission. Every work
01:00:00.73\01:00:03.20
would be considered the pioneer
work and these are words the
01:00:03.20\01:00:06.33
breaking a plow. I bet
you didn't know that you are a
01:00:06.33\01:00:09.27
plow.
01:00:09.27\01:00:10.87
Hello. I told you that.
01:00:10.87\01:00:14.24
She wrote on April 19 in her
diary. The meetings have been
01:00:14.24\01:00:17.51
going since April 2nd, she
wrote on April 19. I am not
01:00:17.51\01:00:20.52
able to sleep past 1 o'clock.
I promise to speak to the
01:00:20.52\01:00:24.12
students. I remained in
the council meeting and I was
01:00:24.12\01:00:26.72
requested to get the brother in
01:00:26.72\01:00:29.19
the light that I have
on setting up the medical
01:00:29.19\01:00:32.46
ministry.
01:00:32.46\01:00:34.00
They asked me what can we do
to make sure it's operating in
01:00:34.00\01:00:37.80
correct line. It's this is her
response. The matter of Doctor
01:00:37.80\01:00:42.10
Crest and his wife. This is
Doctor Daniel Crescent is its
01:00:42.10\01:00:46.34
stock to watch. Just to
read a crest great pioneering
01:00:46.34\01:00:49.48
medical evangelists of the
church. They were coming to
01:00:49.48\01:00:52.05
Australia. She said that
has come before me in tonight's
01:00:52.05\01:00:54.88
season.
01:00:54.88\01:00:56.08
She said I have been instructed
that there should be connected
01:00:56.08\01:00:58.85
with this sanitarium a
physician and his wife who have
01:00:58.85\01:01:02.36
to work of God and
the call of gone at heart.
01:01:02.36\01:01:07.46
I want people who know
got in the medical work.
01:01:07.46\01:01:11.27
She then says this. The
start of the board was on sick
01:01:11.27\01:01:15.27
very next
paragraph C it the first
01:01:15.27\01:01:19.17
the kingdom of God
01:01:19.17\01:01:20.78
and his righteousness and
all these things shall be added
01:01:20.78\01:01:24.45
unto you.
01:01:24.45\01:01:25.61
Then she makes 3 statements.
I want you to pay attention to.
01:01:25.61\01:01:28.52
She says this
01:01:28.52\01:01:30.49
is the condition God has made.
01:01:30.49\01:01:33.92
He's the foundation stone upon
which we must build. This is to
01:01:33.92\01:01:38.76
be our very first.
01:01:38.76\01:01:42.40
She says this affects
the entire character. All who
01:01:45.77\01:01:48.77
follow the principles outlined
in second, Peter, secure for
01:01:48.77\01:01:52.41
themselves. Insurance papers as
they seek the righteousness of
01:01:52.41\01:01:55.78
Christ in white goes on.
She says again say he first the
01:01:55.78\01:02:01.18
kingdom of God and his
righteousness and all these
01:02:01.18\01:02:04.45
things shall be added unto you.
The next paragraph. She says it
01:02:04.45\01:02:07.79
is important. This is
manuscript. 33 19, 0, 1,
01:02:07.79\01:02:10.73
She says a crisis like
influence should emanate from
01:02:10.73\01:02:13.73
our Senate areas so that
men and women find themselves in
01:02:13.73\01:02:18.23
the Rays of dawn righteousness.
01:02:18.23\01:02:21.70
She says there should be no
concealment of the source of
01:02:21.70\01:02:25.34
our grace and power. But 2
paragraphs later she comes to
01:02:25.34\01:02:28.54
Min.
01:02:28.54\01:02:30.35
She's at your stop now. She
says physicians will cultivate
01:02:30.35\01:02:33.88
a sense of the presence of
God will impress their patients
01:02:33.88\01:02:37.62
with the influence of truth
01:02:37.62\01:02:39.59
as they show that they truly
believe the words. I know that
01:02:39.59\01:02:42.89
my redeemer lives and to make
it to second for me and that
01:02:42.89\01:02:46.03
because if you live show
live also, she says they believe
01:02:46.03\01:02:49.93
that
01:02:49.93\01:02:51.60
for Wentz of this will be felt
01:02:51.60\01:02:55.20
before they say
anything to their patients.
01:02:55.20\01:02:59.84
I'm just reading Ellen White.
01:02:59.84\01:03:02.81
She says physicians little
know the power they will have in
01:03:02.81\01:03:06.05
this equipment. They recognize
the presence of God. Their
01:03:06.05\01:03:08.62
words will be of such a
character. That impressions for
01:03:08.62\01:03:11.25
good will be made up our minds
God desires. The Senate areas
01:03:11.25\01:03:14.59
which are established to be
a power for good. Let those who
01:03:14.59\01:03:18.09
are connected with them.
Remember the words We are God's
01:03:18.09\01:03:21.83
husbandry. You are God's
building. Let the Christian
01:03:21.83\01:03:25.07
represented by the building
open every window heavenward.
01:03:25.07\01:03:29.94
This is white
01:03:29.94\01:03:32.77
living and working under
the constant impression low God
01:03:32.77\01:03:37.01
is here.
01:03:37.01\01:03:38.71
Here's how it presents
an influencer here which the
01:03:38.71\01:03:41.68
spirit is ever
impressing upon heart. And my
01:03:41.68\01:03:46.79
in this diary entry, Ellen
White puts her finger on to the
01:03:46.79\01:03:51.33
2 most essential truths
that every physician in every
01:03:51.33\01:03:55.06
medical person and every
medical evangelist was no
01:03:55.06\01:03:57.93
number one
01:03:57.93\01:03:59.53
first point you must seek
first, the kingdom of thought
01:03:59.53\01:04:04.81
you must point. Number 2,
you must spend time with the
01:04:04.81\01:04:08.68
presence of the K
01:04:08.68\01:04:10.35
you must not just seek
the kingdom. You must seek the
01:04:10.35\01:04:13.05
cake.
01:04:13.05\01:04:14.28
The time came to the dog
appears 68 times in the New
01:04:14.28\01:04:17.59
Testament beloved. It's a
sentiment kingdom. It's in a
01:04:17.59\01:04:21.29
kingdom of heaven
Oakhurst. 32 times.
01:04:21.29\01:04:24.79
It was the subject on which
Jesus spoke the most. It was
01:04:24.79\01:04:27.66
the subject which is 4 runner
shop. John. The Baptist spoke
01:04:27.66\01:04:30.83
to most Matthew chapter 3
verses one 2 in those days,
01:04:30.83\01:04:34.30
John came preaching
saying repent for the Kingdom of
01:04:34.30\01:04:36.71
heaven. Is that hand Jesus
Matthew 4 and verse 17 Repacked
01:04:36.71\01:04:41.21
for the Kingdom of Heaven
is repentance is a part of the
01:04:41.21\01:04:43.81
kingdom.
01:04:43.81\01:04:44.85
When Jesus sends out his
medical evangelists and Luke
01:04:44.85\01:04:47.68
Chapter 10 verse 9, he sends
them with the message. She was
01:04:47.68\01:04:51.09
sick
01:04:51.09\01:04:52.29
and say to them that the
Kingdom of Heaven is the year.
01:04:52.29\01:04:56.19
Jesus is saying here. Tell them
that a new way. Yes, come a new
01:04:56.19\01:05:00.20
power has come a new way
of operating has come to the
01:05:00.20\01:05:04.00
planet.
01:05:04.00\01:05:05.03
Tell them the kingdom is near
01:05:05.03\01:05:08.07
in Luke Chapter 17 versus
20. And 21 the pharisees want to
01:05:08.07\01:05:12.04
know or what will be the sign
of the Kingdom. Jesus response
01:05:12.04\01:05:16.24
to them in first. 21 he says
don't expect it to be here or
01:05:16.24\01:05:19.28
there. The kingdom
of God is within you.
01:05:19.28\01:05:24.19
Jesus was saying in effect,
the first thing that the kingdom
01:05:24.19\01:05:27.36
conquers is your heart.
01:05:27.36\01:05:29.66
It works from the inside out.
That's a lesson for those of us
01:05:29.66\01:05:32.93
who want to cleave people
before Jesus catches them.
01:05:32.93\01:05:37.47
You can clean fish
that you have not caught.
01:05:37.47\01:05:41.20
Jesus says I my kingdom, frost
attacks the heart, not not the
01:05:41.20\01:05:46.27
thing ticket in our chest.
I'm talking about the thing
01:05:46.27\01:05:48.41
ticket in our hit, the center
of our being the out of the
01:05:48.41\01:05:51.78
spring from whence flow,
all our designers, Jason says
01:05:51.78\01:05:55.18
that's where the kingdom begin.
01:05:55.18\01:05:58.59
And when it's
their Kingdom, Life
01:05:58.59\01:06:03.06
Kingdom of God.
01:06:03.06\01:06:05.23
Paul says in Romans for in
verse 17, the Kingdom of God is
01:06:05.23\01:06:07.86
not in eating and drinking but
righteousness and peace and joy
01:06:07.86\01:06:11.90
in the Holy spirit. When
the kingdom comes get ready for
01:06:11.90\01:06:14.94
righteousness. The both the
import of the imputed get ready
01:06:14.94\01:06:18.71
for Christ's righteousness
when the kingdom call us
01:06:18.71\01:06:22.48
get ready for hold.
Eagles, joy, anybody got enough.
01:06:22.48\01:06:24.71
Joy, if you do have enough joy
at all, you need a little bit
01:06:24.71\01:06:26.85
more.
01:06:26.85\01:06:28.08
If your joy,
01:06:28.08\01:06:30.59
if you've got a little
spice, the kingdom wants you.
01:06:30.59\01:06:33.72
Jesus says, get ready for joy.
Not only that, but get ready
01:06:33.72\01:06:36.79
for.
01:06:36.79\01:06:38.23
>> It's.
01:06:38.23\01:06:39.43
>> Peace in the middle. Speak
01:06:39.43\01:06:43.26
the piece of the kingdom
of God. There's power in the
01:06:43.26\01:06:46.27
kingdom. You shall receive
power when the whole Dingell's
01:06:46.27\01:06:48.90
comes a point you there's
acceptance in the kingdom.
01:06:48.90\01:06:51.57
He that comes out to be
able to know was cast out there
01:06:51.57\01:06:56.18
in the kingdom. Return to
the stronghold. You prisoners of
01:06:56.18\01:06:59.61
hope. Even today I declare
to you. I will restore your Jack
01:06:59.61\01:07:02.75
second, Ryan Knight and
verse 12. This one. Well in the
01:07:02.75\01:07:05.35
kingdom of great, a loaf
01:07:05.35\01:07:07.16
hath no man than this, then
that the kid but the kingdom
01:07:07.16\01:07:10.39
would lay down his life
01:07:10.39\01:07:11.99
for his friends. John, 15,
Denver starting does possible
01:07:11.99\01:07:15.43
truth in the kingdom. Come
on, say a man as gospel truth in
01:07:15.43\01:07:18.93
the kingdom. It's good to us.
01:07:18.93\01:07:22.44
Spirit of the Lord is upon
me. Jesus says in Luke 4.18,
01:07:22.44\01:07:26.51
he has anointed me to preach
the good news to the poor.
01:07:26.51\01:07:28.98
The Gospel of the Kingdom shall
be priests in all the world for
01:07:28.98\01:07:32.71
witness and then show the
end come. It's a it's a kingdom
01:07:32.71\01:07:36.22
that got gospel power. It's
a kingdom with healing power.
01:07:36.22\01:07:39.69
He has sent me to heal up
the broken-hearted to proclaim
01:07:39.69\01:07:42.96
Liberty to the captives,
to recovery of sight, to the
01:07:42.96\01:07:45.56
blind, to sacked
01:07:45.56\01:07:48.50
them. That all real
press freedom in the kingdom.
01:07:48.50\01:07:52.73
A man I came to tell you this
morning, you are more than just
01:07:52.73\01:07:56.60
a gathering of medical
professionals. You are people
01:07:56.60\01:07:59.84
with power. Don't hide. Use
it. You are people of accept it.
01:07:59.84\01:08:04.75
Don't make people learned
of it. You are prisoners a full
01:08:04.75\01:08:08.45
vote. Apologize for it. Share
it. You are people who don't
01:08:08.45\01:08:12.39
talk about it, do it.
01:08:12.39\01:08:16.32
You are people with a message.
A man in the gospel message of
01:08:16.32\01:08:20.76
the 3 Angels. A revelation
40 don't silence it proclaim it.
01:08:20.76\01:08:25.50
You are people who you are
Gautz wounded healers. God has
01:08:25.50\01:08:29.47
healed you and he's given
you the power to heal of the
01:08:29.47\01:08:32.24
people. The Bible says
don't be afraid of your gift.
01:08:32.24\01:08:37.45
Apply it to a broken world.
01:08:37.45\01:08:40.68
Family of God. I came to tell
you this morning, the amazing
01:08:40.68\01:08:43.82
grace of the Kingdom of God,
01:08:43.82\01:08:45.92
it's what God wants to see
in this plan, a touching and
01:08:45.92\01:08:49.42
moving and helping in changing
people. Is it any wonder then
01:08:49.42\01:08:52.79
that when the disciples acts,
Jesus teach us how to pray like
01:08:52.79\01:08:55.96
you how to pray for the hurting
and how to lift up the helpless
01:08:55.96\01:08:59.80
and how to help those who
are lost and the centers and and
01:08:59.80\01:09:03.67
heal the sick dog. ICU.
Pray for these things. Teach us.
01:09:03.67\01:09:11.68
Is it any wonder
then that when he answers
01:09:11.68\01:09:15.18
their question,
01:09:15.18\01:09:17.35
the kingdom figures prominently
in Jesus is model prayer.
01:09:17.35\01:09:21.59
When you pray,
pray like this. Stop
01:09:21.59\01:09:23.93
our father, which art in
heaven, hallowed be thy name.
01:09:23.93\01:09:26.66
Thy
01:09:26.66\01:09:28.46
kingdom. Call
01:09:28.46\01:09:30.23
a diet plans come in and
buy purposes come and I suppose
01:09:30.23\01:09:34.84
coming by priorities call.
01:09:34.84\01:09:37.77
Yes, Scott Price for that
01:09:37.77\01:09:40.34
as it is and have it. Not only
that, but pray that my we'll be
01:09:40.34\01:09:43.75
done that the will of the
kingdom be done that the way of
01:09:43.75\01:09:46.75
the kingdom be done, that the
witness of the king to be done,
01:09:46.75\01:09:49.25
that the looks of
the kingdom be done.
01:09:49.25\01:09:52.69
In other words, Jesus
saying Pray for Heaven's Way
01:09:52.69\01:09:56.76
to come down and kissed her
01:09:56.76\01:10:00.30
disciples ought to pray.
Amen. Disciples ought to pray
01:10:00.30\01:10:04.13
for the kingdom to come.
Pray that it may come in Israel
01:10:04.13\01:10:07.90
and Gaza as it is in heaven
01:10:07.90\01:10:11.11
that it will come in Lewiston,
Maine as it is and have it
01:10:11.11\01:10:15.64
that it will come in Africa
and Asia and Europe and South
01:10:15.64\01:10:18.71
America and all parts of
the world that it will cost
01:10:18.71\01:10:23.35
because when the kingdom comes,
what have we need comes with
01:10:23.35\01:10:26.42
it.
01:10:26.42\01:10:27.72
Beautiful family of God.
God says in no uncertain terms
01:10:27.72\01:10:31.06
seek first. I have not
forgotten your theme. Seek
01:10:31.06\01:10:34.10
first the kingdom of God
and his righteousness and
01:10:34.10\01:10:36.87
everything else you need.
The Bible says will be added on
01:10:36.87\01:10:39.53
to you know how and strategy
and planning resources will
01:10:39.53\01:10:43.84
come with the kingdom.
01:10:43.84\01:10:45.87
Seek first the kingdom of God,
but that's not all. Number 2,
01:10:45.87\01:10:49.84
why put your finger on
something? The Bible says that
01:10:49.84\01:10:52.41
we must not just seek the
kingdom. We must seek the key.
01:10:52.41\01:10:56.69
In other words, you can do
the work of the kingdom. If you
01:10:56.69\01:10:59.45
don't know the king,
01:10:59.45\01:11:01.32
if you have never been in the
presence of the king or been in
01:11:01.32\01:11:04.23
the presence about King,
you cannot really do his work.
01:11:04.23\01:11:07.50
When I saw your theme, I
couldn't help. But think of
01:11:07.50\01:11:09.86
this scripture, you've chosen
some 16 and verse 11. You will
01:11:09.86\01:11:13.67
show me the path of life in
your presence is fullness of
01:11:13.67\01:11:16.84
joy at your right hand
pleasures forevermore, the
01:11:16.84\01:11:19.74
Bible. He's saying here
that the Servant of God has
01:11:19.74\01:11:22.94
absolutely no equivocation
about this statement. I know
01:11:22.94\01:11:28.18
that if I get into God's
presence, he will show me the
01:11:28.18\01:11:31.39
path of life.
01:11:31.39\01:11:33.52
That's the promise.
01:11:33.52\01:11:35.06
I was moved and blessed
today by our Sabha school study,
01:11:35.06\01:11:38.89
doctor Wesson and passed
the Philly where you blessed as
01:11:38.89\01:11:41.90
well.
01:11:41.90\01:11:43.33
Promise of God is if you're
in my president, I will show you
01:11:43.33\01:11:46.70
what I promised to show
you. I will show you the path of
01:11:46.70\01:11:49.70
life manuscript. 31 listen
to Ellen White here. Much good.
01:11:49.70\01:11:53.31
33 19. 0, 1, Just a little for
the last Messenger writes this
01:11:53.31\01:11:56.51
again, physicians will cultivate
01:11:56.51\01:11:59.58
a sense of the presence of
God will impress their patients
01:11:59.58\01:12:02.18
with the influence of truth.
Physicians little know the
01:12:02.18\01:12:04.99
power
01:12:04.99\01:12:06.86
that they will have in the
sick room if they recognize the
01:12:06.86\01:12:10.39
presence of got things
happen in the presence of God,
01:12:10.39\01:12:14.03
it was the presence of God
that lead Israel through the
01:12:14.03\01:12:16.87
wilderness. Jacob was changed
and that presents Moses was
01:12:16.87\01:12:20.57
empowered by that presents
up. Elijah was comforted by that
01:12:20.57\01:12:24.64
presents. I say it was and
on and read on in that presents,
01:12:24.64\01:12:28.34
Joshua found strength in the
president's general. Maya found
01:12:28.34\01:12:31.95
answers in the present.
Stephanie, Nia said these
01:12:31.95\01:12:34.52
sayings over you
01:12:34.52\01:12:36.48
in his presence and
Jesus says I am the presidents.
01:12:36.48\01:12:40.56
I am the way I am the truth and
the life and I will never leave
01:12:40.56\01:12:43.56
you
01:12:43.56\01:12:44.73
and I will never forsake you.
The family presence of God was
01:12:44.73\01:12:47.83
with us. Steps to Christ in
White says that the Holy Spirit
01:12:47.83\01:12:51.00
through the life of Jesus into
the life of the Christian and
01:12:51.00\01:12:53.74
lives it
01:12:53.74\01:12:56.10
the presence of God,
01:12:56.10\01:12:58.54
not only that,
01:12:58.54\01:13:00.31
he says that that this
presence, it's so special that
01:13:00.31\01:13:05.18
it transforms my life. I see
pleasures forevermore and joy
01:13:05.18\01:13:09.85
unspeakable. It was it was the
great Cs Lewis. He once wrote
01:13:09.85\01:13:14.59
this. He said the problem with
human beings is that we are too
01:13:14.59\01:13:17.43
easily, please.
01:13:17.43\01:13:21.33
He says we want to go on
playing with mud pies in the
01:13:21.33\01:13:24.87
slum because we cannot imagine
what is meant by the offer of a
01:13:24.87\01:13:29.10
holiday by the sea.
01:13:29.10\01:13:31.57
In other words, what he's
saying is we'd rather make but
01:13:31.57\01:13:34.14
flies in a slump.
Then sandcastles by the sea
01:13:34.14\01:13:38.75
settle for earthly pleasures.
When God has pleasures
01:13:38.75\01:13:41.68
forevermore too,
01:13:41.68\01:13:43.42
its use be to fully grass
psalm 16 and verse 11 beloved.
01:13:43.42\01:13:47.82
You really need
to read Psalm 16, 8,
01:13:47.82\01:13:52.09
some 69 per se.
01:13:52.09\01:13:54.10
David
01:13:54.10\01:13:55.46
is unequivocal about what he
will get in the presence of God
01:13:55.46\01:13:58.90
in Psalm 16 because of
what he has done in Psalm
01:13:58.90\01:14:03.61
16 8.
01:14:03.61\01:14:05.47
David says this.
I have set the Lord
01:14:05.47\01:14:08.81
always before me.
01:14:08.81\01:14:11.28
I set the Lord always before
me when I go out towards before
01:14:11.28\01:14:14.78
being when I come in and
when I sat down with it and in
01:14:14.78\01:14:17.42
whatever I do, I always
keep the Lord always before me.
01:14:17.42\01:14:22.76
It's because God is always
before him that he could say I
01:14:22.76\01:14:26.19
know what
happens in his presence.
01:14:26.19\01:14:28.33
God is what I have made an
executive decision not and you
01:14:28.33\01:14:32.07
got to invite me out. Put
my hands on. Gotten up. Put it
01:14:32.07\01:14:35.94
where I could see you.
01:14:35.94\01:14:37.67
I want to see him every day.
I want to see it every moment
01:14:37.67\01:14:40.01
of the day. I want him to be
in my view at all times. It's I
01:14:40.01\01:14:44.21
have set the law as anybody
here to set the lord be for
01:14:44.21\01:14:46.75
you.
01:14:46.75\01:14:48.65
Davis said I have said the
Lord, always before me. Listen
01:14:48.65\01:14:51.95
to Ellen White
01:14:51.95\01:14:53.36
through the power of the
Holy Spirit. Listen to the
01:14:53.36\01:14:55.49
responsibility that she
says you have U.S. positions.
01:14:55.49\01:14:59.73
The Holy Spirit will
renew every organ in your body.
01:14:59.73\01:15:02.66
That God's servants may work
acceptably and 6 by talent fee
01:15:02.66\01:15:06.77
increases under the
influence of the spirits action.
01:15:06.77\01:15:11.37
This is a review it January 14,
19 to listen to this. What the
01:15:11.37\01:15:17.28
physician attempts to
do Christ can accomplish.
01:15:17.28\01:15:21.12
They strive to prolong
life, but he is the life giver
01:15:21.12\01:15:25.15
Jesus. The mighty healer
is the physician in chief. All
01:15:25.15\01:15:28.69
physicians are on the one master
01:15:28.69\01:15:31.49
and bless it. Indeed, is every
position who has learned from
01:15:31.49\01:15:34.66
his war to watch for sold while
all his professional skill.
01:15:34.66\01:15:38.37
While with all his professional
skill, her professional skilled
01:15:38.37\01:15:41.67
works to heal the
bodies of the suffering.
01:15:41.67\01:15:44.74
She goes on that man only
who daily and hourly little
01:15:44.74\01:15:49.44
Christian life can perform a
right to duties of a physician.
01:15:49.44\01:15:54.52
Is that shocking enough?
01:15:54.52\01:15:57.02
If you're not living
right, you can perform.
01:15:57.02\01:16:01.22
It's ordering just reading
it. How important that the
01:16:01.22\01:16:04.76
physician shout ever Shelby
ever under the control of the
01:16:04.76\01:16:08.36
defined physician, let the one
who was trying to prolong life
01:16:08.36\01:16:11.63
looked to him to
direct his every movement.
01:16:11.63\01:16:18.57
The time
01:16:18.57\01:16:20.04
that has been spent in
communing with God in seeking
01:16:20.04\01:16:23.61
his help before undertaking
to relieve those who were in a
01:16:23.61\01:16:26.31
critical condition has brought
shows to the side of the doctor
01:16:26.31\01:16:31.95
and his assistant. If you
spend time with doggone to come
01:16:31.95\01:16:37.73
to be with you
01:16:37.73\01:16:39.36
wherever you served in medical
ministry, some patients are
01:16:39.36\01:16:42.76
concerned and fearful, she
says. But when they see their
01:16:42.76\01:16:45.93
physician on his knees
asking got to make the critical
01:16:45.93\01:16:48.57
operations of success,
the prayer inspires them
01:16:48.57\01:16:51.31
as well as the physician with
strong open confident. She goes
01:16:51.31\01:16:54.11
on to say that with physicians
pray for their patience,
01:16:54.11\01:16:57.81
it shows the devil
01:16:57.81\01:17:01.58
and healing can begin.
01:17:01.58\01:17:03.55
Lord have mercy.
01:17:03.55\01:17:05.19
I do believe you've got
something to do. My question to
01:17:05.19\01:17:07.72
you is this. I've got to
jaywalk through this message up
01:17:07.72\01:17:10.16
and got a minute on this thing.
But I will take a long is that
01:17:10.16\01:17:12.36
right?
01:17:12.36\01:17:14.13
They stole my time.
I will take my time.
01:17:14.13\01:17:18.43
I will be too low. You
all have been very kind to me.
01:17:18.43\01:17:21.77
My question to you, medical
evangelists. Is this what part
01:17:21.77\01:17:25.24
of your work can you do
without the presence of God?
01:17:25.24\01:17:30.38
What can you do
01:17:30.38\01:17:33.31
as God wanted killers?
01:17:33.31\01:17:35.62
What part of your
work and you perform
01:17:35.62\01:17:38.92
without the
presence of God in your life?
01:17:38.92\01:17:42.86
What I was saying in no
uncertain terms that you work
01:17:42.86\01:17:46.19
is kidding. Don't work.
01:17:46.19\01:17:48.53
And kingdom work requires
not just taking the kingdom.
01:17:48.53\01:17:52.23
It requires the
presence of the K
01:17:52.23\01:17:55.87
it's possible work. It
must never be forced from the
01:17:55.87\01:18:00.44
ministry that God has called us
to. Yes, you can go through the
01:18:00.44\01:18:04.08
motions and you can do some
things medically, but the love
01:18:04.08\01:18:06.72
of God in order to make lasting
change and provide spiritual
01:18:06.72\01:18:10.99
healing, we must be in
the presence of God. A man
01:18:10.99\01:18:16.29
without me. Jesus said you can
do nothing. David said I have
01:18:16.29\01:18:19.73
set the Lord always before me.
I have discovered that I can do
01:18:19.73\01:18:22.80
anything without my God. I
want him always in my line of
01:18:22.80\01:18:25.90
sight ways where I could see
up notice family to set the Lord
01:18:25.90\01:18:29.44
before you is to set some
other things away from you.
01:18:29.44\01:18:33.51
It's not no way that you could
keep got in the center of your
01:18:33.51\01:18:36.64
view unless you decide to some
other things. Most receded into
01:18:36.64\01:18:40.55
the back,
01:18:40.55\01:18:42.58
our anxieties and our stresses
our plans, our agendas. I will
01:18:42.58\01:18:46.65
monitor it. And yes, even
familial responsibilities must
01:18:46.65\01:18:50.99
take a back seat
01:18:50.99\01:18:53.16
to the presence of God.
01:18:53.16\01:18:55.40
We must be in the presence of
God. That's what she's arguing
01:18:55.40\01:18:59.10
for. That's what scripture
is arguing for. If we are
01:18:59.10\01:19:02.00
constantly on our
devices, how can we be hold him?
01:19:02.00\01:19:08.68
If our minds are filled with
every waking moment digitally,
01:19:08.68\01:19:12.91
how can we hear his voice?
01:19:12.91\01:19:16.69
David said because he is at
my right hand. I shall not be
01:19:16.69\01:19:19.55
moved. I shall be steadfast.
I shall be foundational.
01:19:19.55\01:19:23.32
I shall not be me
01:19:23.32\01:19:25.73
because I have said before
me and he is at my right hand.
01:19:25.73\01:19:29.63
God is saying to us today in no
uncertain terms, kingdom people
01:19:29.63\01:19:34.90
put gone where they can see him
01:19:34.90\01:19:39.57
some 8,
01:19:39.57\01:19:41.64
some 16 and verse 8 is very
close closely related to Psalm
01:19:41.64\01:19:46.18
16 and verse 11 pay attention
with me at this power low for a
01:19:46.18\01:19:50.52
minute. Have you noticed?
So may I have set the Lord
01:19:50.52\01:19:54.16
always before me. That is I
want to be in your presence.
01:19:54.16\01:19:57.09
Caught verse 11 in your
presence is fullness of joy.
01:19:57.09\01:20:01.50
I find complete joy in
your presence. SOM a top 16 and
01:20:01.50\01:20:06.27
verse 8 now because you are
at my right hand. I shall not be
01:20:06.27\01:20:09.47
moved. I find steadfastness
and safety in your presence.
01:20:09.47\01:20:13.94
First 11, 0st 11
at your right to it.
01:20:13.94\01:20:18.01
Pleasures forevermore.
01:20:18.01\01:20:19.68
I find unexpected blessings
in your presence caught but I
01:20:19.68\01:20:23.89
don't get anywhere else.
01:20:23.89\01:20:26.02
In first, David prioritize this
time with caught in first 11
01:20:26.02\01:20:30.19
got prioritizes blessing.
Dated in 4 say David wants to
01:20:30.19\01:20:34.40
say got in first 11 got
C's and rewards they fit.
01:20:34.40\01:20:39.63
There's a progression here
because David has been in the
01:20:39.63\01:20:42.40
presence of gone gone has put
himself with David cannot just
01:20:42.40\01:20:47.58
experience him but
experience fullness of joy.
01:20:47.58\01:20:54.02
I don't know any
parents in the house.
01:20:54.02\01:20:57.09
Maybe you picked up your little
ones and spawn them around the
01:20:57.09\01:20:59.79
time or 2.
01:20:59.79\01:21:01.22
I remember when I not, not not
my son wants to spin me around,
01:21:01.22\01:21:05.13
but but I remember when I used
to be able to spin him around,
01:21:05.13\01:21:08.03
he's about as big as I am now.
01:21:08.03\01:21:10.17
But I remember when I used to
be able to take him by his arms
01:21:10.17\01:21:12.57
has been used to think to
myself, when will his joy be
01:21:12.57\01:21:15.84
full?
01:21:15.84\01:21:17.67
He would spend
until I was losing my mind
01:21:21.51\01:21:25.61
are you don't do it
again that you do it again.
01:21:25.61\01:21:30.05
Can't walk straight to it.
You know, Campbell, anywhere
01:21:30.05\01:21:32.55
with all of the
both of us do it.
01:21:32.55\01:21:36.16
David says to us, the Lord
waits for us in his presence.
01:21:36.16\01:21:39.83
He wants us to be spun around.
He wants us to enjoy that time
01:21:39.83\01:21:43.70
with him was just horrible.
Your choice is not fun until
01:21:43.70\01:21:47.80
you get in the presence of God.
01:21:47.80\01:21:50.54
You haven't experienced
pleasures forevermore yet won
01:21:50.54\01:21:53.41
office as Earth's fleeting.
Joys are. Our pleasures are
01:21:53.41\01:21:57.51
like poppy, spread you seize
the flower. Is blooming shed or
01:21:57.51\01:22:01.68
like the snowflake in the
river. A moment white been gone
01:22:01.68\01:22:05.55
for a fight
01:22:05.55\01:22:09.89
and not the pleasures of Cobb,
01:22:09.89\01:22:13.80
my beloved family
of God. I've got to
01:22:13.80\01:22:17.27
go through some of this.
Ellen White says in testimony,
01:22:17.27\01:22:20.10
volume one page one, 69,
give yourselves to prayer.
01:22:20.10\01:22:25.47
She says a live
look at the altar.
01:22:25.47\01:22:29.84
And I want to tell you the love
that people who live a dog's
01:22:29.84\01:22:32.75
altar
01:22:32.75\01:22:34.08
are people who
transformed the world.
01:22:34.08\01:22:37.19
Have you been with the
person who's been with gone?
01:22:37.19\01:22:40.46
Have you ever seen anybody
who actually knows gone the bin
01:22:40.46\01:22:43.36
with God and the impact
they have on other lives?
01:22:43.36\01:22:47.23
I want to tell you a story
and then I'm going to close
01:22:47.23\01:22:51.73
preacher. I love very much.
01:22:51.73\01:22:54.40
His name is
Charles Granderson. Finney.
01:22:54.40\01:22:57.87
Although the Finney is
not a 7th day Adventist,
01:22:57.87\01:23:01.61
he was a
preacher, a revival preacher
01:23:01.61\01:23:05.11
back in the
early 18 mid 18, 100's.
01:23:05.11\01:23:09.52
And I want to tell
you, that was quite
01:23:09.52\01:23:12.05
an amazing revival
01:23:12.05\01:23:14.56
that happened when Delta 50
came on the scene. It was at
01:23:14.56\01:23:17.46
the tail end of the second
great American awakening and a
01:23:17.46\01:23:20.16
fitting began to preach them or
touch his heart. He was headed
01:23:20.16\01:23:22.73
to be an attorney but gave his
heart to got 6 foot, 3 of them
01:23:22.73\01:23:26.30
piercing eyes.
01:23:26.30\01:23:28.67
And now the fitting was stand
up and reach. And where do you
01:23:28.67\01:23:31.84
break?
01:23:31.84\01:23:34.94
It is report it
01:23:34.94\01:23:36.41
that for at least a generation
after El the filly out of the
01:23:36.41\01:23:40.58
50 left for at least a
generation after he left what
01:23:40.58\01:23:44.62
Everify says we're
in the area stopped
01:23:44.62\01:23:49.16
there would be no prostitution.
01:23:49.16\01:23:51.13
After he left
01:23:51.13\01:23:53.36
liquor stores would close
01:23:53.36\01:23:55.60
the most with calls Elda where
he preached the word of God.
01:23:55.60\01:24:00.07
His appeals were so powerful
01:24:00.07\01:24:02.84
that people would get their
hearts the price at the sight
01:24:02.84\01:24:06.74
of him.
01:24:06.74\01:24:10.55
I'll tell you one
story that always catches me.
01:24:10.55\01:24:13.75
He was in
upstate New York reaching
01:24:13.75\01:24:16.05
and he was just about done with
his. His message is for that
01:24:16.05\01:24:20.06
time. People have given
their hearts to Christ was the
01:24:20.06\01:24:23.16
teachers had shut down. Things
are already changing their in
01:24:23.16\01:24:26.23
Buffalo, New York when when
when he came through, but they
01:24:26.23\01:24:29.06
took him. They they decided,
you know, let's just take him,
01:24:29.06\01:24:31.80
you know, to see some sites in
the area. And it took him to a
01:24:31.80\01:24:34.20
factory, it in that upper
upstate New York area. And when
01:24:34.20\01:24:37.91
they took out a 50 to the sac
to the factory, he walks into
01:24:37.91\01:24:41.61
the factory
01:24:41.61\01:24:42.71
and when he walks
in, people start to cry.
01:24:42.71\01:24:47.22
People start to week, they
walk up to him and they began to
01:24:47.22\01:24:50.32
confess their sins.
01:24:50.32\01:24:52.35
And and he leads in
that moment, such a powerful
01:24:52.35\01:24:56.83
spiritual revival right there
in that factory that they have
01:24:56.83\01:25:01.43
to close the factory all day
01:25:01.43\01:25:06.97
moved simply
01:25:06.97\01:25:08.94
by the sight of him.

People see the results of
elder Finney's Amazing Ministry
01:25:15.38\01:25:20.02

amazing gifted man of thought.

What they don't know
is he's devotional life.
01:25:25.02\01:25:28.69
That was a man pretty good
01:25:28.69\01:25:32.19
and spent time with God
01:25:32.19\01:25:35.16
begging for souls.
01:25:35.16\01:25:38.33
He prayed for his appeals
and his appeals were legendary.

I firmly believe the love
of God. We don't need another
01:27:21.40\01:27:24.07
strategy.
