This is, dare I
say, a touched life?
00:01:00.06\00:01:02.89
Can I say that, Kevin? Amen.
00:01:02.92\00:01:04.56
This is Kevin's second
Sabbath in an Adventist Church.
00:01:04.59\00:01:07.76
And I told him, more people
00:01:13.03\00:01:14.74
are going to see you
on your second Sabbath
00:01:14.77\00:01:16.50
that have seen you
in your whole life.
00:01:16.54\00:01:19.61
That's for
sure. That's for sure.
00:01:19.64\00:01:21.38
But he's from
Nashville, Tennessee.
00:01:21.41\00:01:22.91
Yes, I am.
00:01:22.94\00:01:24.28
And he has a
store, he has a testimony.
00:01:24.31\00:01:26.65
Tell us how you began finding
about the Adventist Church,
00:01:26.68\00:01:29.55
because you are
not a non-church guy,
00:01:29.58\00:01:31.35
you know about church,
00:01:31.39\00:01:32.72
but you weren't quite satisfied?
00:01:32.75\00:01:34.09
Walk us through that experience?
00:01:34.12\00:01:35.46
Well, you know, I
used to go to churches,
00:01:35.49\00:01:37.86
and you know, and I would just,
I go to non-denominational,
00:01:37.89\00:01:41.16
baptism, Pentecostal,
00:01:41.20\00:01:42.96
and I read the Word
and I studied the Word,
00:01:43.00\00:01:45.67
but I couldn't
really find any place that,
00:01:45.70\00:01:48.37
you know,
00:01:48.40\00:01:49.74
was walking in the Word,
you know, what I'm saying.
00:01:49.77\00:01:52.47
And I struggled with
alcohol and drugs, you know,
00:01:52.51\00:01:56.54
and if there's people out
there like that, you know,
00:01:56.58\00:01:59.78
I mean, you know,
there is hope for you.
00:01:59.81\00:02:04.45
But you know, for a
while I got really depressed,
00:02:04.49\00:02:07.36
you know, and
I'm asking the Lord,
00:02:07.39\00:02:08.72
you know, "Please, Lord,
00:02:08.76\00:02:10.43
you know, just send
me to the right church,"
00:02:10.46\00:02:13.09
you know what I'm saying.
00:02:13.13\00:02:14.50
And I'm like, you
know, and I'm sitting here,
00:02:14.53\00:02:16.50
and I'm flipping
through the channels, you know,
00:02:16.53\00:02:18.43
and I also come across
Channel 34 in Tennessee,
00:02:18.47\00:02:22.14
Nashville, it's a 3ABN.
00:02:22.17\00:02:25.97
And you know, at first I
was like, "What is this?"
00:02:26.01\00:02:29.94
You know.
00:02:29.98\00:02:31.35
I was like...
00:02:31.38\00:02:32.71
I said, "Man, this kind
of looks weird," you know.
00:02:32.75\00:02:35.02
Plus I have heard about,
you know, Adventist, you know,
00:02:35.05\00:02:37.35
I mean, there's that sometimes
00:02:37.39\00:02:38.79
when people they look out there,
00:02:38.82\00:02:40.16
but they got the wrong picture,
you know what I'm saying.
00:02:40.19\00:02:42.66
You got to come and
see for yourself, you know.
00:02:42.69\00:02:45.29
I mean, you
can't go by tradition
00:02:45.33\00:02:46.73
of what man says, you know.
00:02:46.76\00:02:48.63
But anyway,
whenever I did, you know,
00:02:48.66\00:02:50.77
I came across
and the Lord started
00:02:50.80\00:02:52.70
opening up my heart to it.
00:02:52.73\00:02:56.04
I just decided, "Man,
I got to go, you know,
00:02:56.07\00:02:58.71
I got to check
it out," you know.
00:02:58.74\00:03:01.14
And then I brought my
buddy, I call him my buddy,
00:03:01.18\00:03:03.75
I said, "You got
to check this out."
00:03:03.78\00:03:06.05
He's looking for
the truth too, you know.
00:03:06.08\00:03:08.05
And...
00:03:08.08\00:03:09.42
Now, I want to cut you because
00:03:09.45\00:03:10.79
you watched all or most
of Ten Commandments weekend?
00:03:10.82\00:03:14.36
Yes, I did. Yes, I did.
00:03:14.39\00:03:15.72
Amen. Amen.
00:03:15.76\00:03:17.09
You can't sit...
00:03:17.13\00:03:18.46
That was after I watch that,
00:03:18.49\00:03:19.83
that's whenever
I started really.
00:03:19.86\00:03:21.20
That's when I started
to calm up body and stuff,
00:03:21.23\00:03:22.60
you know.
00:03:22.63\00:03:23.97
And last week you walked
00:03:24.00\00:03:25.33
into your first
Seventh-day Adventist Church.
00:03:25.37\00:03:26.70
What was it
like? It was different.
00:03:26.74\00:03:31.24
Well, yeah, I
mean, but it was...
00:03:31.27\00:03:32.74
That's not the answer I wanted.
No, no, no, it was really good.
00:03:32.77\00:03:35.14
There was a lot of love.
00:03:35.18\00:03:37.05
Others, I mean,
00:03:37.08\00:03:38.51
it was for real,
really, you know.
00:03:38.55\00:03:40.48
And I mean, you know,
when then they gets you,
00:03:40.52\00:03:42.78
they gets you together,
and you have to pray in groups.
00:03:42.82\00:03:44.75
You know, I've
never seen that before.
00:03:44.79\00:03:46.99
Yeah, it was like, "Whoa!"
00:03:47.02\00:03:49.22
You know, and but then
anyway, I took my buddy with me.
00:03:49.26\00:03:52.86
And I was want to know
about the Ten Commandment Book.
00:03:52.89\00:03:55.66
Because I said,
"Where can I get this book?
00:03:55.70\00:03:57.70
You know.
00:03:57.73\00:03:59.07
And all of a sudden, we
go into the back, you know,
00:03:59.10\00:04:00.84
back office, and they
got stacks of them, right?
00:04:00.87\00:04:03.51
So me and my buddy, we're like,
"Hey, can we have a few cases,
00:04:03.54\00:04:08.28
you know, because
we're going to go downtown."
00:04:08.31\00:04:12.21
We're going downtown.
00:04:12.25\00:04:16.35
Not a few books.
00:04:16.38\00:04:17.72
A few cases? Oh, yeah.
00:04:17.75\00:04:19.15
We ended up
taking 1000, you know.
00:04:19.19\00:04:22.96
And what did you do
with that thousand, though?
00:04:22.99\00:04:24.33
Well, we went down,
00:04:24.36\00:04:25.69
there's a
Christian concert down there.
00:04:25.73\00:04:27.06
So we decided to get
into our other Christian
00:04:27.10\00:04:29.50
brothers and sisters hands.
00:04:29.53\00:04:32.13
So... So you gave out a 1000?
00:04:32.17\00:04:33.84
So yeah, I know, the
Lord put it upon my heart,
00:04:33.87\00:04:35.64
you know, like, if there's
any of those Christian camp,
00:04:35.67\00:04:37.51
you know, concerts or evangelism
00:04:37.54\00:04:39.87
is coming into town
that all of us should try
00:04:39.91\00:04:42.18
to go out in our each state,
00:04:42.21\00:04:44.05
and pass these books out
when they're getting out.
00:04:44.08\00:04:46.31
Now he's a brand new,
00:04:46.35\00:04:49.22
almost heading into, trying
to be, going to be real soon,
00:04:49.25\00:04:52.12
if I got anything to say
about it going to be baptized
00:04:52.15\00:04:53.86
Seventh-day
Adventist, but he's already
00:04:53.89\00:04:56.83
given you a direct quote
from the Spirit of Prophecy
00:04:56.86\00:04:59.49
that says, whenever
there is a gathering
00:04:59.53\00:05:01.56
of any sort,
00:05:01.60\00:05:03.43
God's people ought to be there,
00:05:03.47\00:05:05.20
and get a hearing
00:05:05.23\00:05:06.57
and bring your
literature with him.
00:05:06.60\00:05:07.94
So God has already
put that in his spirit.
00:05:07.97\00:05:10.51
Amen.
00:05:10.54\00:05:11.87
That whenever God's people
are gathered for any reason,
00:05:11.91\00:05:14.78
Adventist
literature ought to be there.
00:05:14.81\00:05:16.88
And we praise the Lord for that.
00:05:16.91\00:05:18.25
Amen. So you
found the folk friendly?
00:05:18.28\00:05:19.81
Yes, I did. You
found the folk loving?
00:05:19.85\00:05:21.68
Yes. You like what you saw?
00:05:21.72\00:05:23.49
I love it. What
made you come here?
00:05:23.52\00:05:26.86
I just wanted to
get more, you know.
00:05:26.89\00:05:29.19
Amen.
00:05:29.22\00:05:31.63
I wanted to get more.
00:05:31.66\00:05:34.70
When a guy says,
he wants to get more.
00:05:34.73\00:05:37.90
You got to give Him more. Yeah.
00:05:37.93\00:05:39.73
We got a few
books lying on here,
00:05:39.77\00:05:41.10
probably, you know.
00:05:41.14\00:05:42.47
I'll take them. I
thought you might.
00:05:42.50\00:05:44.17
This is Kevin.
00:05:44.21\00:05:45.57
Let's give a
hand as he goes off.
00:05:45.61\00:05:46.94
God bless you,
Kevin. Thank you, thank you.
00:05:46.98\00:05:48.31
God bless you.
00:05:48.34\00:05:49.68
That is a young
man that's on fire.
00:05:53.35\00:05:55.02
And when someone is
seeking when you say, "Lord,
00:05:55.05\00:05:57.75
show me the right church,"
00:05:57.79\00:05:59.12
that is a prayer God
will never turn down.
00:05:59.15\00:06:01.49
If you want to know,
then God is on the line
00:06:01.52\00:06:03.93
to make sure that you
know, and he is well on the way.
00:06:03.96\00:06:06.90
He's not dipped yet.
00:06:06.93\00:06:08.50
But, Elda, he's a dip,
he's a dip into making.
00:06:08.53\00:06:12.07
Yeah, he's gonna be a fine
00:06:12.10\00:06:13.74
Seventh-day Adventist
one day real, real soon.
00:06:13.77\00:06:16.14
And we're happy for that.
00:06:16.17\00:06:17.51
We're going to
bring on Tammy Chance now.
00:06:17.54\00:06:19.87
And she has a
beautiful song to sing.
00:06:19.91\00:06:22.51
We always love to
hear Tammy's smooth tones
00:06:22.54\00:06:25.18
as she sings "This
World is Not My Home."
00:06:25.21\00:06:30.22
How many of you know that song?
00:06:30.25\00:06:32.75
An old, old hymn,
00:06:32.79\00:06:34.32
we've changed
it up a little bit.
00:06:34.36\00:06:36.32
But what parts you
know, feel free to sing.
00:06:36.36\00:06:39.63
And that's my whole goal
is to know that this life
00:06:39.66\00:06:44.03
is not all that we have.
00:06:44.07\00:06:45.87
Thank you, Jesus.
It's not all that we have.
00:06:45.90\00:06:48.24
This world is
only a temporary home.
00:06:48.27\00:06:52.11
We're going to have
our everlasting home
00:06:52.14\00:06:54.01
before too long, I believe that.
00:06:54.04\00:06:55.64
This world is not my home
00:07:08.26\00:07:13.29
I'm just a-passing through
00:07:13.33\00:07:17.73
My treasures are laid up
00:07:17.77\00:07:22.10
Somewhere beyond the blue
00:07:22.14\00:07:26.98
The angels beckon me
00:07:27.01\00:07:31.58
From heaven's open door
00:07:31.61\00:07:36.05
And I can't feel at home
00:07:36.08\00:07:40.09
In this world anymore
00:07:40.12\00:07:44.59
Oh Lord, you know
00:07:48.60\00:07:51.57
I have no friend like you
00:07:51.60\00:07:54.87
If heaven's not my home,
00:07:54.90\00:07:57.51
Lord Lord what will I do
00:07:57.54\00:08:01.04
The angels beckon me
00:08:01.08\00:08:04.05
From heaven's open door
00:08:04.08\00:08:06.92
And I can't feel at home
00:08:06.95\00:08:10.09
In this world anymore
00:08:10.12\00:08:13.99
Just hover in
Gloryland We'll live eternally
00:08:18.09\00:08:24.37
The saints on every hand
00:08:24.40\00:08:27.50
Are shouting victory
00:08:27.54\00:08:30.61
Their songs of sweetest praise
Drift back from heaven's shore
00:08:30.64\00:08:36.51
And I can't feel at home
00:08:36.54\00:08:39.65
In this world anymore
00:08:39.68\00:08:44.69
Oh Lord, you know Oh,
00:08:44.72\00:08:47.69
I have no friend like you
00:08:47.72\00:08:50.93
If heaven's not my home,
00:08:50.96\00:08:53.63
Lord Lord what will I do
00:08:53.66\00:08:57.13
The angels beckon me
00:08:57.17\00:09:00.07
From heaven's open door
00:09:00.10\00:09:03.00
And I can't feel at home
00:09:03.04\00:09:06.07
In this world anymore
00:09:06.11\00:09:11.11
They're all expecting me
00:09:11.15\00:09:13.88
And that's one thing I know
00:09:13.92\00:09:17.35
My Savior pardoned me
00:09:17.39\00:09:20.46
And now I onward go
00:09:20.49\00:09:23.59
I know He'll take me through
00:09:23.63\00:09:26.59
Though I am weak and poor
00:09:26.63\00:09:29.56
And I can't feel at home
00:09:29.60\00:09:32.60
In this world anymore
00:09:32.63\00:09:36.20
The angels beckon me
00:09:36.24\00:09:39.21
From heaven's open door
00:09:39.24\00:09:41.98
And I can't feel at home
00:09:42.01\00:09:45.11
In this world anymore
00:09:45.15\00:09:51.45
Well done. Thank
you so very much.
00:10:00.36\00:10:02.73
One of the things that
is thrilling about 3ABN
00:10:02.76\00:10:04.77
is not only do we hear reports
of individuals who have been
00:10:04.80\00:10:09.20
brought to the
Lord around the world
00:10:09.24\00:10:10.81
and we get reports
from Japan, and New Zealand,
00:10:10.84\00:10:13.41
and Papua New
Guinea and these places.
00:10:13.44\00:10:15.31
But it's also good to
let our light shine here
00:10:15.34\00:10:18.11
in our local vineyard.
00:10:18.15\00:10:19.48
God calls us to be lights
here in Thompsonville also.
00:10:19.51\00:10:23.35
So I'm calling
out Wendy Mitchell,
00:10:23.39\00:10:24.72
because Wendy is a local person.
00:10:24.75\00:10:26.86
As we would say in New
York, she's a home girl
00:10:26.89\00:10:29.19
who is from this very area,
00:10:29.22\00:10:31.53
and we're letting our
light shine here also.
00:10:31.56\00:10:34.70
Wendy, I think
was first introduced
00:10:34.73\00:10:36.97
to Adventism by
our own Kim Smith.
00:10:37.00\00:10:39.90
And where's Kim?
00:10:39.93\00:10:41.27
Kim, are you
here in the audience?
00:10:41.30\00:10:43.07
Kim works in our
finance department.
00:10:43.10\00:10:45.74
She's bubbly and we have
00:10:45.77\00:10:47.84
a very interesting
group of people in finance.
00:10:47.88\00:10:49.54
They sort of keep
things live around here.
00:10:49.58\00:10:52.35
Oh, there she is in the back.
00:10:52.38\00:10:54.82
So, Wendy, how
are you, first of all?
00:10:54.85\00:10:56.18
I know you're a little
nervous, but it's all right.
00:10:56.22\00:10:57.95
These folk all love you.
00:10:57.99\00:10:59.32
You want to hold
up microphone up.
00:10:59.35\00:11:02.06
And you had a very tough
car experience some years ago.
00:11:02.09\00:11:06.39
Tell us about that and
how that sort of worked you
00:11:06.43\00:11:07.96
into where you are today?
00:11:08.00\00:11:10.47
By the grace of God I'm here,
00:11:10.50\00:11:12.60
because a lot of prayer went out
00:11:12.63\00:11:14.67
when I had my wreck,
bless, Kim, she was there.
00:11:14.70\00:11:19.91
In 1996, I had my wreck,
00:11:19.94\00:11:22.51
tracheotomy
blood, broken clavicle.
00:11:22.54\00:11:26.31
I was in a coma for
like two weeks, I think.
00:11:26.35\00:11:29.58
Some of its here and
some I don't remember.
00:11:29.62\00:11:33.32
That's the grace of God, maybe
He didn't want me to remember.
00:11:33.36\00:11:38.06
And I'm getting
back on the right track,
00:11:38.09\00:11:42.86
'cause I slid off
00:11:42.90\00:11:44.37
when I got lie and deceived
by close family members.
00:11:44.40\00:11:49.00
And they took my faith way,
so I'm a baby in Christ again.
00:11:49.04\00:11:52.57
I got baptized on the 28,
00:11:52.61\00:11:55.61
and I'm gonna do
it right this time.
00:11:55.64\00:12:01.12
She's said she
is a baby in Christ.
00:12:01.15\00:12:02.48
You know, this
is one of the things
00:12:02.52\00:12:03.85
that all of us can do.
00:12:03.89\00:12:05.62
You can be right there.
00:12:05.65\00:12:06.99
Your mission field
00:12:07.02\00:12:08.52
is as close as
your local newspaper.
00:12:08.56\00:12:12.26
There are people all around us
who need a Word from the Lord.
00:12:12.29\00:12:16.56
And Kim Smith stepped in
to a neighbor who was hurting
00:12:16.60\00:12:20.34
and brought the light
of Christ in to this life.
00:12:20.37\00:12:24.77
And she is a less than a
month new Seventh-day Adventist.
00:12:24.81\00:12:29.98
And you've got to
look at this family,
00:12:30.01\00:12:31.35
you got a whole big
family here who loves you.
00:12:31.38\00:12:33.85
Now her family said that
she can't do too much driving,
00:12:33.88\00:12:36.42
they're little
afraid of her driving.
00:12:36.45\00:12:37.82
But Kim takes it back and forth,
00:12:37.85\00:12:39.19
so we can
provide shuttle service
00:12:39.22\00:12:40.56
to and from the church.
00:12:40.59\00:12:41.92
Praise the Lord, and amen. So
Wendy, this is your new family.
00:12:41.96\00:12:46.59
And we love you.
00:12:46.63\00:12:47.96
And you don't
have to search anymore
00:12:48.00\00:12:49.33
because you are home now.
00:12:49.36\00:12:50.97
And you're gonna be home
until Jesus takes us all home.
00:12:51.00\00:12:54.00
Amen? Amen.
00:12:54.04\00:12:56.24
And Amen, and amen.
00:12:56.27\00:12:58.17
Thank you so
much. God bless you.
00:12:58.21\00:13:01.08
We were talking backstage
00:13:01.11\00:13:02.44
and she was trying
to keep it together.
00:13:02.48\00:13:04.51
She said, "I'm
a little nervous."
00:13:04.55\00:13:05.88
But I said,
"You'll get your story out
00:13:05.91\00:13:07.32
because God wants your
story to indeed get out."
00:13:07.35\00:13:10.42
Dona Klein has
been with us all week,
00:13:10.45\00:13:13.19
and God has given us
such a beautiful touch
00:13:13.22\00:13:16.29
on the organ,
00:13:16.32\00:13:17.86
and we get to hear from her now.
00:13:17.89\00:13:19.23
Thank you so very much, Dona.
00:13:19.26\00:13:20.60
Dona has such a sweet touch.
00:15:22.88\00:15:24.35
She's been with
the Cox Organization
00:15:24.39\00:15:26.15
a good little while.
00:15:26.19\00:15:27.52
I know of people who
travel with their instruments.
00:15:27.56\00:15:29.82
Jaime Jorge
travels with his violin.
00:15:29.86\00:15:32.39
Roland Gresham
travels with his guitar.
00:15:32.43\00:15:34.66
I think Dona's the only person
00:15:34.70\00:15:36.03
I know who
travels with her organ.
00:15:36.06\00:15:39.17
It's kind of difficult
to get that in your suitcase
00:15:39.20\00:15:40.54
though, isn't it, Dona?
00:15:40.57\00:15:43.91
I'm going to ask for my wife,
00:15:43.94\00:15:45.87
Irma Murray to come and join me.
00:15:45.91\00:15:47.34
Irma is the head of 3ABN Latino
00:15:51.61\00:15:57.99
in the Murray household,
00:15:58.02\00:16:01.52
and in the
Murray household only.
00:16:01.56\00:16:03.93
But she is a hard
worker for 3ABN Latino
00:16:03.96\00:16:06.39
and she's a real good wife too.
00:16:06.43\00:16:09.13
Yeah.
00:16:09.16\00:16:10.67
Now John and Idalia
Dinzey, will you join us please?
00:16:14.10\00:16:17.81
This is indeed
00:16:21.04\00:16:22.38
the head of 3ABN
Latino and his wife,
00:16:22.41\00:16:25.51
Idalia,
affectionately known as Tita.
00:16:25.55\00:16:27.28
I like to call him El Jefe.
00:16:32.65\00:16:35.46
Some people think it's, heifer.
00:16:35.49\00:16:36.83
It's not. It's Jefe.
00:16:36.86\00:16:39.79
Jefe means the chief in Spanish.
00:16:39.83\00:16:42.16
So I called him
affectionately El Jefe,
00:16:42.20\00:16:44.27
because he is indeed El Jefe.
00:16:44.30\00:16:46.63
3ABN Latino, the time is yours.
00:16:46.67\00:16:48.14
Thank you.
00:16:48.17\00:16:49.50
The Lord is doing
great and mighty things.
00:16:52.34\00:16:56.61
The Lord is coming soon. Amen.
00:16:56.64\00:16:59.05
We can tell you
00:16:59.08\00:17:00.42
there are many
wonderful things happening.
00:17:00.45\00:17:01.92
We have very short time.
00:17:01.95\00:17:03.52
But first we
like to introduce you,
00:17:03.55\00:17:05.05
to you the staff of 3ABN Latino,
00:17:05.09\00:17:07.39
and volunteers.
00:17:07.42\00:17:08.76
We like to ask
them to come forward.
00:17:08.79\00:17:10.46
There are a few of
them missing, namely,
00:17:10.49\00:17:14.23

but we'd like
to introduce to you
00:17:19.57\00:17:21.84
the staff that helps
keep 3ABN Latino going.
00:17:21.87\00:17:25.67
And next to my wife
is Pastor Richard Piñero.
00:17:25.71\00:17:30.88
I think we have to
move a little bit over.
00:17:30.91\00:17:34.32
Next to me is
Pastor Richard Piñero.
00:17:34.35\00:17:36.99
He works in the
pastoral ministries department
00:17:37.02\00:17:39.65
and also one of
our fine translators.
00:17:39.69\00:17:42.46
Next to him is his
wife, Annette Piñero,
00:17:42.49\00:17:45.39
who works in the
programming department.
00:17:45.43\00:17:47.00
And next we have

one of the
volunteers in the call center
00:17:50.37\00:17:52.00
and speak Spanish very
well, and from Venezuela.
00:17:52.03\00:17:55.47
And next to her is her
husband Caesar Cesar Carmona,
00:17:55.50\00:17:58.81
and he also is volunteer
00:17:58.84\00:18:00.88
and also does some

Next to him is Maritza Oquendo,
00:18:02.74\00:18:05.45

programming department
00:18:05.48\00:18:07.28
for our English network,
00:18:07.32\00:18:08.75
but also helps out
in the Latino network.
00:18:08.78\00:18:11.02
And you have already been
introduced to Mrs. CA Murray,
00:18:11.05\00:18:15.32
and that is Irma,
00:18:15.36\00:18:16.73
that is one of our
producers for 3ABN Latino
00:18:16.76\00:18:19.56
and does many other things.
00:18:19.59\00:18:21.43
And besides her we
have Sister Teresa Bonilla,
00:18:21.46\00:18:26.13

coordinators for our productions
00:18:26.17\00:18:30.11

and helps in
other areas as well,
00:18:40.65\00:18:42.65
because we all
have to do a little more
00:18:42.68\00:18:45.02
in different areas.
00:18:45.05\00:18:46.39
Next to him is

helping fill out
some of our contracts
00:18:54.36\00:18:56.46
for the
different cable companies.
00:18:56.50\00:18:57.83
That's Arnaldo Cruz,
00:18:57.87\00:18:59.47
and he's been a
wonderful addition to 3ABN.
00:18:59.50\00:19:03.30
Pray for him and
the rest of the staff.
00:19:03.34\00:19:04.74
Next to him is a lovely lady.
00:19:04.77\00:19:07.88
One of the best
mothers-in-law's in the world,

Idalia Toro.
00:19:12.18\00:19:13.52
And next to her, of
course, is my father-in-law,
00:19:17.72\00:19:20.26
Wilfredo Toro.
00:19:20.29\00:19:21.62
He has translated
the Ten Commandments
00:19:21.66\00:19:23.86
Twice Removed in Spanish,
00:19:23.89\00:19:25.69
and helps us
volunteer many different areas.
00:19:25.73\00:19:28.10
And we want to thank the
Lord for this wonderful staff.
00:19:31.33\00:19:34.67
And I do have to say
I'm grateful to the Lord
00:19:34.70\00:19:36.67
for my lovely wife Idalia,
who is a tremendous help,
00:19:36.71\00:19:40.91
bundle of creativity
and is a wonderful mother,
00:19:40.94\00:19:43.81
and has been just a
tremendous support to me
00:19:43.85\00:19:46.88
ever since I got married,
00:19:46.92\00:19:48.25
which is 1994.
00:19:48.28\00:19:49.62
That's right.
00:19:49.65\00:19:50.99
So we had our
13th year anniversary.
00:19:51.02\00:19:53.25
Praise the Lord for that.
00:19:53.29\00:19:54.62
Our time is fast going,
so I need to ask you to watch
00:19:54.66\00:19:58.93
this next video
prepared by our editor,
00:19:58.96\00:20:01.43
and watch and
listen on the screen to see
00:20:01.46\00:20:03.26
what the Lord has done.
00:20:03.30\00:20:06.27
In 1984, God told Danny Shelton,
00:20:06.30\00:20:10.01
"I want you to build
Me a television station,
00:20:10.04\00:20:12.47
one that will reach the world
00:20:12.51\00:20:13.98
with the undiluted
three angels' messages,
00:20:14.01\00:20:16.95
one that will
counteract the counterfeit."
00:20:16.98\00:20:19.98
Danny responded to the
call of the Lord by saying,
00:20:20.02\00:20:22.32
"Lord, if this is
really You, I'll go forward,
00:20:22.35\00:20:24.95
if You supply every need."
00:20:24.99\00:20:26.92
In the fall of 1986,
00:20:26.96\00:20:29.16
Three Angels
Broadcasting Network
00:20:29.19\00:20:31.16
was on the air,
00:20:31.19\00:20:32.53
broadcasting to one
satellite to North America,
00:20:32.56\00:20:35.06
Central America
and the Caribbean.
00:20:35.10\00:20:39.13
In 1994, 3ABN opened
00:20:39.17\00:20:42.40
the largest Protestant
Evangelism Center in Russia.
00:20:42.44\00:20:45.74
And today, it is reaching
millions of people in radio
00:20:45.77\00:20:49.78
and television in
the Russian language.
00:20:49.81\00:20:52.71
In 1996, 3ABN expands
its satellite coverage
00:20:52.75\00:20:56.62
to two satellites to
reach millions of people
00:20:56.65\00:20:59.25
in Europe and Africa.
00:20:59.29\00:21:01.89
In the year 2003,
00:21:01.92\00:21:03.66
Three Angels
Broadcasting Network
00:21:03.69\00:21:05.49
begins to send the
three angels' messages
00:21:05.53\00:21:08.53
around the world
with four satellites.
00:21:08.56\00:21:11.30
Also in the year 2000,
3ABN Radio was launched,
00:21:11.33\00:21:15.77
another powerful instrument
to reach millions of people
00:21:15.80\00:21:19.31
for Jesus Christ.
00:21:19.34\00:21:21.54
Then, in the year 2003
00:21:21.58\00:21:24.28
in an effort to reach
more than 600 million people
00:21:24.31\00:21:27.65
that speak
Spanish and Portuguese,
00:21:27.68\00:21:30.05
Three Angels
Broadcasting Network
00:21:30.09\00:21:32.02
launched 3ABN Latino,
00:21:32.05\00:21:35.29
another powerful tool in
the hands of the Almighty
00:21:35.32\00:21:38.43
God to preach the undiluted
three angels' messages.
00:21:38.46\00:21:43.00
3ABN Latino continues to bring
to the Spanish and Portuguese
00:21:43.03\00:21:47.10
speaking people,
life changing programs.
00:21:47.14\00:21:50.34
Here's a sample
of what's going on,
00:21:50.37\00:21:52.37
on 3ABN Latino.
00:21:52.41\00:21:54.38
3ABN Latino is still growing,
00:23:22.26\00:23:24.70
entering new cities
through cable companies,
00:23:24.73\00:23:27.67
radio stations
and local TV channels
00:23:27.70\00:23:30.44
in Argentina, Bolivia,
Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador,
00:23:30.47\00:23:35.94
Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico,
Nicaragua, Panama, Puerto Rico,
00:23:35.98\00:23:41.98
Peru, Dominican
Republic, Venezuela,
00:23:42.02\00:23:45.19
and with your help
soon in your neighborhood.
00:23:45.22\00:23:49.39
In the year of victory
2007, 3ABN English, 3ABN Radio,
00:23:49.42\00:23:55.16
3ABN Russia, and 3ABN Latino
00:23:55.20\00:23:58.97
are still
evangelizing with power.
00:23:59.00\00:24:03.20
Amen.
00:24:03.24\00:24:05.97
Praise the Lord.
00:24:06.01\00:24:10.25
All these things
have come to place,
00:24:10.28\00:24:12.38
it has taken place
00:24:12.41\00:24:13.75
only because this
ministry belongs to the Lord.
00:24:13.78\00:24:16.48
And He is blessing this ministry
00:24:16.52\00:24:19.22
like never before.
00:24:19.25\00:24:20.99
It is growing,
the time is short.
00:24:21.02\00:24:24.26
And praise the
Lord for all of you
00:24:24.29\00:24:26.13
who support 3ABN,
00:24:26.16\00:24:28.23
the ministry, the mission,
the vision that we all share.
00:24:28.26\00:24:31.93
And how many of you
are longing for home?
00:24:31.97\00:24:34.17
Right.
00:24:34.20\00:24:35.54
And we praise the Lord,
we had a wonderful experience
00:24:35.57\00:24:37.74
for the Ten
Commandments weekend.
00:24:37.77\00:24:39.24
We did it from New York,
Chicago area and also Mexico.
00:24:39.27\00:24:42.91
That was the
Hallelujah chorus that was sung
00:24:42.94\00:24:45.35
there by the University Choir.
00:24:45.38\00:24:47.75
But it's amazing how the Lord
is willing to take something
00:24:47.78\00:24:50.65
that you have dedicated it
00:24:50.69\00:24:52.35
and completely surrender to Him.
00:24:52.39\00:24:54.39
And He will just
take it and bless it
00:24:54.42\00:24:56.29
and it will be bigger than
we can ever imagine or think.
00:24:56.32\00:25:00.13
Amen.
00:25:00.16\00:25:01.50
The Lord is doing
great and mighty things.
00:25:01.53\00:25:04.07
Jesus Christ is coming soon.
00:25:04.10\00:25:05.53
I am convinced as you
know the story of 3ABN.
00:25:05.57\00:25:10.01
This is a
channel of divine origin.
00:25:10.04\00:25:14.04
And there are TV
stations that are saying,
00:25:14.08\00:25:16.38
"We want to put this on."
00:25:16.41\00:25:18.55
There are cable company
owners that are watching
00:25:18.58\00:25:21.48
and are talking
about getting baptized.
00:25:21.52\00:25:23.85
We just don't have enough time
to share with you the stories.
00:25:23.89\00:25:26.76
But there is a couple here.
00:25:26.79\00:25:28.12
I don't know if Johnny and
Goethe are in the audience.
00:25:28.16\00:25:31.19
They travelled
from North Carolina.
00:25:31.23\00:25:33.76
They were Adventists,
but walked away from the Lord
00:25:33.80\00:25:35.90
for over 10 years.
00:25:35.93\00:25:37.60
Watching 3ABN Latino for
a year and a half decided
00:25:37.63\00:25:40.90
we need to come
back to the Lord,
00:25:40.94\00:25:42.27
we want to be re-baptized
and they are here today
00:25:42.30\00:25:45.17
to be baptized within
one hour of this moment
00:25:45.21\00:25:48.54
that I'm talking
about right here on 3ABN.
00:25:48.58\00:25:50.75
Amen.
00:25:50.78\00:25:52.11
The Lord is coming soon.
00:25:55.28\00:25:56.62
Please remember us in prayer.
00:25:56.65\00:25:58.35
Pray for the people
00:25:58.39\00:25:59.72
that are in the
valley of decision,
00:25:59.75\00:26:01.09
because Jesus
Christ is coming soon.
00:26:01.12\00:26:02.46
Thank you. That's right.
00:26:02.49\00:26:03.83
God bless.
00:26:03.86\00:26:07.33
I almost didn't want
to let them stop talking.
00:26:07.36\00:26:09.93
They had so much good to say.
00:26:09.96\00:26:11.97
And a good report
really does make you feel good
00:26:12.00\00:26:13.97
what the Lord is
doing through 3ABN Latino.
00:26:14.00\00:26:19.04
Steve Darmody is up now.
00:26:19.07\00:26:20.48
We have had such beautiful music
00:26:20.51\00:26:21.94
from Steve and Jennifer
00:26:21.98\00:26:23.31
and all of our musical ministers
00:26:23.35\00:26:26.15
this several days.
00:26:26.18\00:26:28.15
And he is a...
00:26:28.18\00:26:29.68
You hate to say
old friend of 3ABN
00:26:29.72\00:26:33.05
because old has such
negative connotations.
00:26:33.09\00:26:35.09
So we'll just say
00:26:35.12\00:26:36.46
longtime friend of the ministry.
00:26:36.49\00:26:38.36
I know, I'm not
looking over there.
00:26:38.39\00:26:39.73
I know he's misbehaving.
00:26:39.76\00:26:42.76
But he does sing well,
so we'll give him a pass.
00:26:42.80\00:26:45.03
Steve Darmody.
00:26:45.07\00:26:46.40
3ABN is here today
00:26:51.14\00:26:53.11
because of a
sacrifice of a lot of people.
00:26:53.14\00:26:56.34
And the
sacrifice goes far beyond
00:26:56.38\00:26:58.18
just the financial contributions
00:26:58.21\00:27:00.32
that come, their
sacrifices of personal value.
00:27:00.35\00:27:05.49
And sometimes it brings
heartache and deep sorrow.
00:27:05.52\00:27:11.09
But you know, every
sacrifice will be worth it,
00:27:11.13\00:27:14.90
when we see Him
break through the clouds,
00:27:14.93\00:27:17.87
and our Redeemer
comes to take us home.
00:27:17.90\00:27:20.50
Through many dangers
00:27:37.22\00:27:43.86
Toils, and snares
00:27:43.89\00:27:48.96
I have already come
00:27:49.00\00:27:56.40
To His grace
hath brought me safe
00:27:56.44\00:28:03.68
Thus far
00:28:03.71\00:28:07.22
And grace
00:28:07.25\00:28:10.42
Will lead me home
00:28:10.45\00:28:16.86
Oft times the road seems dark
00:28:27.80\00:28:32.47
Our trials hard to bear
00:28:32.51\00:28:36.21
We're tempted to complain
00:28:36.24\00:28:40.45
To murmur and despair
00:28:40.48\00:28:45.12
But Christ will soon appear
00:28:45.15\00:28:49.22
To catch his bride away
00:28:49.26\00:28:53.70
All tears forever over
00:28:53.73\00:28:57.53
In God's eternal day
00:28:57.57\00:29:03.61
It will be worth it all
00:29:03.64\00:29:09.78
When we see
00:29:09.81\00:29:11.95
Jesus Life's
trial will seem so small
00:29:11.98\00:29:18.89
When we see Christ
00:29:18.92\00:29:22.36
One glimpse of His dear face
00:29:22.39\00:29:26.83
All sorrows will erase
00:29:26.86\00:29:31.43
So bravely run the race
00:29:31.47\00:29:35.84
Till we see Christ
00:29:35.87\00:29:39.87
Only faintly now,
00:29:45.81\00:29:49.72
I see Him
00:29:49.75\00:29:53.66
With the darkening veil between
00:29:53.69\00:29:59.23
But a blessed day is coming
00:30:02.20\00:30:08.04
When His glory shall be seen
00:30:08.07\00:30:12.97
Face to face
00:30:16.21\00:30:19.75
Shall I behold Him
00:30:19.78\00:30:24.69
Far beyond the starry sky
00:30:24.72\00:30:31.96
Face to face in all His glory
00:30:31.99\00:30:38.53
I shall see Him
00:30:45.84\00:30:50.25
By and by
00:30:50.28\00:30:56.85
One glimpse of His
00:30:56.89\00:31:01.89
Dear face
00:31:01.92\00:31:05.93
All sorrows will erase
00:31:05.96\00:31:13.70
So bravely run your race
00:31:13.74\00:31:20.68
Till we see
00:31:20.71\00:31:27.72
Christ
00:31:27.75\00:31:30.99
Amen. Thank you
so very much, Steve.
00:31:53.27\00:31:54.61
Well done.
00:31:54.64\00:31:55.98
Steve Darmody. Well, well done.
00:31:56.01\00:31:58.95
Jay Christian is
the production manager
00:31:58.98\00:32:02.72
for 3ABN Radio,
00:32:02.75\00:32:04.62
which is doing
such a great work.
00:32:04.65\00:32:08.66
I feel somewhat low
to stand next to him
00:32:08.69\00:32:11.03
because he's got my body.
00:32:11.06\00:32:13.93
When I was in college,
I wanted to be this build
00:32:13.96\00:32:16.56
at this height.
00:32:16.60\00:32:18.07
And I went up to
6 feet at age 14,
00:32:18.10\00:32:21.37
I got there very fast.
00:32:21.40\00:32:22.74
And I assumed I
would get to about 6'3-6'4.
00:32:22.77\00:32:25.34
But I stopped growing
at about 15 years of age.
00:32:25.37\00:32:27.81
And I still look
up to people like you.
00:32:27.84\00:32:30.45
Oh, if there's any
consolation, you play basketball
00:32:30.48\00:32:32.68
a whole lot better than I do.
00:32:32.71\00:32:34.88
Well, that's up to
some amount of debate.
00:32:34.92\00:32:36.99
I got two teeth out here
that say I may not be so good.
00:32:37.02\00:32:40.39
But God is good.
00:32:40.42\00:32:41.79
And we have a good time
on Tuesday nights playing
00:32:41.82\00:32:43.73
with Danny and the boys
as we get a little exercise
00:32:43.76\00:32:46.63
and hopefully not
break too many limbs.
00:32:46.66\00:32:48.63
But Jay is doing a
very, very fine job.
00:32:48.66\00:32:51.30
We even get people driving
down Route 57 listening to 3ABN
00:32:51.33\00:32:54.94
Radio and making
contacts through this.
00:32:54.97\00:32:56.91
But Jay is going to
tell us about 3ABN Radio.
00:32:56.94\00:32:59.97
Thank you, CA.
00:33:00.01\00:33:01.34
Something that is
near and dear to my heart,
00:33:01.38\00:33:03.68
the communication
from the listeners.
00:33:03.71\00:33:06.11
And we could sit here probably
the rest of the day today.
00:33:06.15\00:33:10.52
And I could just tell you
00:33:10.55\00:33:11.89
communication
after communication
00:33:11.92\00:33:13.32
that we've gotten.
00:33:13.36\00:33:14.69
We get emails,
we get phone calls,
00:33:14.72\00:33:16.12
we get letters.
00:33:16.16\00:33:17.63
Sometimes people just
come and stop in our offices,
00:33:17.66\00:33:20.56
and tell us about
00:33:20.60\00:33:22.03
what 3ABN Radio
is meant to them.
00:33:22.06\00:33:24.83
We've got a
couple of examples here
00:33:24.87\00:33:26.27
that I'm going to read to
you that came to us from email,
00:33:26.30\00:33:29.74
and are very representative
of the kinds of things
00:33:29.77\00:33:33.78
that we hear from our listeners.
00:33:33.81\00:33:36.24
This is from Bill in
New Mexico and he writes,
00:33:36.28\00:33:38.48
"You can turn on
any radio in my home,
00:33:38.51\00:33:41.42
and it would be
tuned into the Word of God
00:33:41.45\00:33:43.65
through your kind efforts.
00:33:43.69\00:33:45.35
I wish I could find
the words in my heart
00:33:45.39\00:33:47.19
to thank all of your
people for keeping me company,
00:33:47.22\00:33:49.99
so many lonely days and nights
00:33:50.03\00:33:51.76
when I was going
through a heartbreaking divorce.
00:33:51.79\00:33:54.40
And I cannot thank
you enough for teaching me
00:33:54.43\00:33:56.63
so many new lessons I
never realized were true,
00:33:56.67\00:34:00.57
until you showed
me in the scriptures.
00:34:00.60\00:34:02.87
I was wrong about so many things
00:34:02.90\00:34:04.94
all my life and in my
beliefs until I met 3ABN.
00:34:04.97\00:34:09.91
How can I thank you
00:34:09.94\00:34:11.28
and how can I
thank God for 3ABN?
00:34:11.31\00:34:14.12
You've meant so much to
me and have changed my heart,
00:34:14.15\00:34:17.12
my soul and my life.
00:34:17.15\00:34:19.22
God bless you all."
00:34:19.25\00:34:21.06
And again, that was
Bill from New Mexico
00:34:21.09\00:34:23.12
and so much of that
letter jumps out at me.
00:34:23.16\00:34:26.43
But I want to point
out that he says here,
00:34:26.46\00:34:28.33
"I never realized the truth
until you showed it to me in,"
00:34:28.36\00:34:34.30
what? Scriptures, the Bible.
00:34:34.34\00:34:37.77
That was key.
00:34:37.81\00:34:39.64
Joselino writes,
"Dear 3ABN staff,
00:34:39.67\00:34:43.41
I've been
fasting during the day,
00:34:43.45\00:34:45.08
Thursday of the
26, asking God to bless
00:34:45.11\00:34:48.25
all the activities you perform.
00:34:48.28\00:34:50.59
I love all the hard work you
do for reaching into the world.
00:34:50.62\00:34:53.36
Jesus is coming back soon.
00:34:53.39\00:34:55.56
I wish I had gold
or silver to help out
00:34:55.59\00:34:58.03
but what I have I give,
00:34:58.06\00:35:00.40
time and prayer for this cause."
00:35:00.43\00:35:03.40
And can we ask the same of you?
00:35:03.43\00:35:05.50
Please give us
time and your prayers
00:35:05.53\00:35:08.07
because we need them,
00:35:08.10\00:35:10.24
we really do.
00:35:10.27\00:35:12.31
Here's an email from someone.
00:35:12.34\00:35:14.51
"This morning I was returning
from taking my son to school
00:35:14.54\00:35:17.48
and I heard a program
"Faith Chapel" I think,
00:35:17.51\00:35:20.48
about what teens
wish their parents
00:35:20.52\00:35:22.45
did and didn't do."
00:35:22.48\00:35:24.69
Can you see a benefit
to that kind of a program?
00:35:24.72\00:35:27.02
It was a very good
program. I've heard it myself.
00:35:27.06\00:35:29.82
She says, "It was great.
00:35:29.86\00:35:32.23
I didn't get the name
of the pastor speaking
00:35:32.26\00:35:33.93
and would love
to get a copy of it
00:35:33.96\00:35:35.50
to share with my
husband and sons.
00:35:35.53\00:35:37.77
Is there a way to do that?"
00:35:37.80\00:35:39.73
And that was a
letter, an email from Beth.
00:35:39.77\00:35:42.74
And, of course,
there's a way to do that.
00:35:42.77\00:35:44.47
We're very happy
to provide copies
00:35:44.51\00:35:46.91
of our programs for people.
00:35:46.94\00:35:48.58
And people not only
listen to themselves,
00:35:48.61\00:35:52.91
listen to the
programs themselves,
00:35:52.95\00:35:54.28
but they share
them with other people.
00:35:54.32\00:35:56.72
We've had people
contact us and ask
00:35:56.75\00:35:58.49
for a bunch of different copies
00:35:58.52\00:36:00.22
of the different
programs that we offer as well.
00:36:00.26\00:36:03.09
And so we're just
thrilled to be able to do that.
00:36:03.12\00:36:06.09
So many calls, so many letters,
00:36:06.13\00:36:08.30
and those are just a
few that we can pass along.
00:36:08.33\00:36:10.70
But we know that there have been
00:36:10.73\00:36:12.07
people driving down the road,
00:36:12.10\00:36:13.44
and they get to the end
of the signal of the station,
00:36:13.47\00:36:15.57
they're listening to
and they pull over and stop,
00:36:15.60\00:36:17.87
so they can hear
the rest of the program.
00:36:17.91\00:36:20.31
There have been people
00:36:20.34\00:36:21.68
that have showed up at churches.
00:36:21.71\00:36:23.04
This church, I've
talked to a number of people
00:36:23.08\00:36:26.21
who've come in who have said,
00:36:26.25\00:36:28.08
"I've been
listening to 3ABN Radio,
00:36:28.12\00:36:30.39
I wanted to find out
00:36:30.42\00:36:31.75
what the
Seventh-day Adventist Church
00:36:31.79\00:36:33.12
was like, and I
came to this one."
00:36:33.15\00:36:34.82
And praise God for that.
00:36:34.86\00:36:37.83
We also have
different support systems
00:36:37.86\00:36:41.76
for our affiliates that we have.
00:36:41.80\00:36:44.13
We don't just take
affiliates and say, "Good luck,
00:36:44.17\00:36:48.17
do whatever you want
to do. And that's fine."
00:36:48.20\00:36:50.24
We're here to
help and we help a lot.
00:36:50.27\00:36:53.14
And so we also have
some very active affiliates.
00:36:53.17\00:36:57.28
And affiliates
are out there doing
00:36:57.31\00:36:59.11
many different things,
00:36:59.15\00:37:00.48
for instance, they go to booths
00:37:00.52\00:37:02.05
in local state
fairs and so forth.
00:37:02.08\00:37:05.12
Or they have
flyers that they pass out.
00:37:05.15\00:37:07.72
There are a couple of stations
in particular I can think of,
00:37:07.76\00:37:11.16
they're always
printing out schedules,
00:37:11.19\00:37:12.99
always putting them out
and sending them out to people.
00:37:13.03\00:37:15.03
Some people go door to door.
00:37:15.06\00:37:16.87
They're doing
everything that they possibly
00:37:16.90\00:37:19.07
can to let people
in their communities
00:37:19.10\00:37:21.14
know that there is
an outlet in their town,
00:37:21.17\00:37:24.24
that will definitely
make a big difference
00:37:24.27\00:37:26.71
in their lives,
00:37:26.74\00:37:28.08
and bring people
to God or back to God,
00:37:28.11\00:37:31.88
or help them to
understand more of the truth
00:37:31.91\00:37:34.05
from the Bible.
00:37:34.08\00:37:35.92
And by the way, something that
we are working on right now,
00:37:35.95\00:37:39.62
we have never
had bumper stickers
00:37:39.65\00:37:42.32
for the radio station.
00:37:42.36\00:37:44.49
Actually, I shouldn't
call it a bumper sticker,
00:37:44.53\00:37:46.19
because technically,
it's a static cling sticker.
00:37:46.23\00:37:49.20
So many people will not put
00:37:49.23\00:37:50.57
the little sticky
things on their cars.
00:37:50.60\00:37:52.63
Then, so what we've done
is we've made arrangements
00:37:52.67\00:37:55.57
to get some window stickers,
00:37:55.60\00:37:58.14
they stick in the
back of the window
00:37:58.17\00:37:59.67
by static cling.
00:37:59.71\00:38:01.24
So you just put it there.
00:38:01.28\00:38:02.61
And there are no
little smudge marks
00:38:02.64\00:38:05.61
or anything like that
from the glue that's on there.
00:38:05.65\00:38:08.68
And a lot of people are
very interested in those
00:38:08.72\00:38:10.89
and we are going to
have them for our affiliates.
00:38:10.92\00:38:13.46
But we're also
going to have ones
00:38:13.49\00:38:15.26
that if you don't have
an affiliate in your area,
00:38:15.29\00:38:18.29
that all you'll need to
do is just get a generic one
00:38:18.33\00:38:21.53
from us that promotes the
fact that there's a 3ABN Radio
00:38:21.56\00:38:25.90
and it gives our
website where they can listen.
00:38:25.93\00:38:28.07
So you can drive
anywhere in the country,
00:38:28.10\00:38:30.94
and put one of those
on the back of your car,
00:38:30.97\00:38:33.11
on the back of your vehicles.
00:38:33.14\00:38:35.71
And you can promote 3ABN
Radio and we would love it.
00:38:35.74\00:38:39.58
So just some of the
things that are happening
00:38:39.61\00:38:41.65
at 3ABN Radio,
00:38:41.68\00:38:43.42
and I am
thrilled to death to see
00:38:43.45\00:38:45.75
all these things
that are happening.
00:38:45.79\00:38:47.12
And I'm thrilled to
see all of you here,
00:38:47.16\00:38:49.39
and praising the Lord
and worshipping with us.
00:38:49.42\00:38:53.53
And we thank you
very much for your prayers
00:38:53.56\00:38:56.46
and your financial support.
00:38:56.50\00:38:58.17
Thank you, Jay,
so very, very much.
00:39:02.60\00:39:04.04
We want to try
to redeem the time.
00:39:04.07\00:39:06.41
Steve and Jennifer are
coming out to do a duet
00:39:06.44\00:39:09.61
and they will be
preceding Pastor Lomacang
00:39:09.64\00:39:12.01
who bring the
afternoon's message to us.
00:39:12.05\00:39:15.68
And he of course is the Pastor
00:39:15.72\00:39:17.05
of the
Thompsonville Church here.
00:39:17.09\00:39:18.85
Johnny Dinzey just
whispered in my ear a story.
00:39:18.89\00:39:20.86
He said that the
Latinos were getting together
00:39:20.89\00:39:24.26
to take a picture
00:39:24.29\00:39:25.63
and none of the women
wanted to stand in front,
00:39:25.66\00:39:27.76
because some thought that
the shirt was fitting them
00:39:27.80\00:39:29.36
a little tight
around the middle,
00:39:29.40\00:39:31.37
until Jennifer walked
in and she stood up front
00:39:31.40\00:39:33.34
and then
everybody felt a lot better.
00:39:33.37\00:39:36.74
Not sure when the baby is due,
but we know it sometime soon.
00:39:36.77\00:39:39.27
So Steve and Jennifer,
00:39:39.31\00:39:40.64
if you would
come out now please,
00:39:40.68\00:39:42.01
and then the next
voice following them
00:39:42.04\00:39:44.21
will be that of
Pastor John Lomacang
00:39:44.25\00:39:46.82
who bring the
afternoon's message.
00:39:46.85\00:39:48.32
When you think of
mercy, you think of the cross,
00:39:54.69\00:39:58.96
Christ's sacrifice,
you think of salvation.
00:39:58.99\00:40:04.43
But His mercy is so
much more than just that.
00:40:04.47\00:40:08.00
His mercy is what is at
work in our lives every day.
00:40:08.04\00:40:13.51
His mercy brings comfort.
00:40:13.54\00:40:15.08
His mercy brings hope.
00:40:15.11\00:40:17.28
His mercy brings
character changes
00:40:17.31\00:40:19.51
in our own life.
00:40:19.55\00:40:21.65
God's mercy is so much more.
00:40:21.68\00:40:23.79
In Your mercy You have shown me
00:40:28.06\00:40:33.66
Your salvation
00:40:33.70\00:40:39.77
Undeserving of your favor
00:40:39.80\00:40:45.11
I am free
00:40:45.14\00:40:49.88
And I'll never be the same
00:40:49.91\00:40:55.98
All my life
00:40:56.02\00:40:58.32
I will remain
00:40:58.35\00:41:02.02
In your mercy, tender mercy
00:41:02.06\00:41:07.70
Shown to me
00:41:07.73\00:41:12.50
In Your mercy
00:41:18.61\00:41:21.48
You have promised to be near me
00:41:21.51\00:41:28.05
I am resting in the shelter
00:41:28.08\00:41:34.39
Of your wings
00:41:34.42\00:41:39.16
Every fear I leave behind
00:41:39.19\00:41:45.33
Every confidence I find
00:41:45.37\00:41:50.84
In Your mercy
00:41:50.87\00:41:54.38
Tender mercy shown to me
00:41:54.41\00:42:01.45
So great is Your love
00:42:01.48\00:42:07.02
It is higher than the heavens
00:42:07.06\00:42:12.26
Your faithfulness
00:42:12.29\00:42:14.96
Reaches the sky
00:42:15.00\00:42:21.44
Be exalted, O Lord
00:42:21.47\00:42:26.81
Over all the earth
00:42:26.84\00:42:31.65
Let Your glory be seen
00:42:31.68\00:42:35.48
In my life
00:42:35.52\00:42:39.99
In my life
00:42:40.02\00:42:45.36
In Your mercy
00:43:04.81\00:43:09.62
You have given
of Your life blood
00:43:09.65\00:43:16.19
One last
heartbeat and redemption
00:43:16.22\00:43:22.03
Was complete
00:43:22.06\00:43:26.70
What a debt of love You paid
00:43:26.74\00:43:32.71
With Your death
00:43:32.74\00:43:34.98
My soul was saved
00:43:35.01\00:43:39.81
In Your mercy
00:43:44.09\00:43:49.89
Tender mercy
00:43:49.92\00:43:56.13
Shown to me
00:43:56.16\00:44:04.07
Thank you,
Jennifer. Thank you, Steve.
00:44:32.40\00:44:34.40
Don't they blend
together very well?
00:44:34.44\00:44:38.17
I'm going to do today
what I've never done before.
00:44:38.21\00:44:41.78
Preach you a short sermon.
00:44:41.81\00:44:44.88
But I don't want
our church members
00:44:44.91\00:44:46.25
to take this as a prototype
00:44:46.28\00:44:48.92
of what's going to
follow every Sabbath.
00:44:48.95\00:44:52.52
Let us pray.
00:44:52.55\00:44:54.39
Gracious Father,
this is Your time.
00:44:54.42\00:44:57.63
Do what humanity can never do.
00:44:57.66\00:45:00.76
In Jesus' name I pray.
00:45:00.80\00:45:03.47
Amen.
00:45:03.50\00:45:06.10
Exodus 14:10-15.
00:45:06.13\00:45:09.80
One of the most
encouraging stories
00:45:12.84\00:45:16.04
you find in Scripture that
is, as far as I'm concerned,
00:45:16.08\00:45:20.38
is how God can do so much,
00:45:20.42\00:45:24.75
when people's hearts are
filled with so little faith.
00:45:24.79\00:45:29.96
For 400 years,
the children of Israel
00:45:29.99\00:45:33.93
had found a home
in the land of Egypt.
00:45:33.96\00:45:35.76
And when the time had
comes for God to deliver them,
00:45:35.80\00:45:38.20
they prayed for
God's deliverance.
00:45:38.23\00:45:41.07
At the hour of
their deliverance,
00:45:41.10\00:45:44.97
their faith was
at an all time low.
00:45:45.01\00:45:49.38
And the Bible
tells us exactly why.
00:45:49.41\00:45:54.25
In Exodus 14:10, "And
when Pharaoh drew near,
00:45:54.28\00:45:59.22
the children of
Israel lifted their eyes,
00:45:59.25\00:46:02.39
and behold, the
Egyptians marched after them.
00:46:02.42\00:46:06.39
So they were very afraid,
00:46:06.43\00:46:08.93
and the children of
Israel cried out to the Lord.
00:46:08.96\00:46:12.17
Then they said to Moses,
00:46:12.20\00:46:13.77
'Because there
were no graves in Egypt,
00:46:13.80\00:46:17.87
have you taken us away
to die in the wilderness?'
00:46:17.91\00:46:23.38
" Sometimes Thompsonville
looks like a wilderness.
00:46:23.41\00:46:28.18
"Why have you so dealt with
us to bring us out of Egypt?
00:46:28.22\00:46:33.52
Is this not the word that
we told you in Egypt, saying,
00:46:33.56\00:46:36.93
let us alone that we
may serve the Egyptians?
00:46:36.96\00:46:39.19
For it would have been better
for us to serve the Egyptians
00:46:39.23\00:46:46.84
than that we should
die in the wilderness.'
00:46:46.87\00:46:50.77
And Moses said to the people,"
00:46:50.81\00:46:54.14
I think this is
the understatement
00:46:54.18\00:46:56.18
of any generation.
00:46:56.21\00:46:57.58
"And Moses said
to the people of God,
00:46:57.61\00:47:01.38
'Do not be afraid.
00:47:01.42\00:47:02.78
Stand still, and see
the salvation of the Lord,
00:47:02.82\00:47:06.25
which He will
accomplish for you today.
00:47:09.86\00:47:14.16
For the Egyptians
whom you see today,
00:47:14.20\00:47:16.83
you shall see no more forever.
00:47:16.87\00:47:20.24
The Lord will fight for you,
and you shall hold your peace.'
00:47:20.27\00:47:25.67
And the Lord said to
Moses, 'Why do you cry to Me?
00:47:25.71\00:47:29.71
Tell the children of
Israel to go forward.'
00:47:29.74\00:47:35.75
" God's servant Ellen
White recorded a statement
00:47:35.78\00:47:39.45
that has etched
its memory in my mind.
00:47:39.49\00:47:44.03
In the book, Councils
on Stewardship, page 154.
00:47:44.06\00:47:47.60
I read these words years ago,
00:47:47.63\00:47:49.16
but they continue to echo
00:47:49.20\00:47:50.53
as we draw nearer to the
close of this earth's history.
00:47:50.57\00:47:55.04
As the people of God approach
the perils of the last days,
00:47:55.07\00:47:59.67
Satan holds earnest consultation
00:47:59.71\00:48:03.04
with his angels,
00:48:03.08\00:48:04.88
as to the most successful
plan to overthrow their faith.
00:48:04.91\00:48:10.19
He sees that the popular
church is already low to sleep,
00:48:10.22\00:48:15.49
by his deceptive
power, by pleasing sophistry,
00:48:15.52\00:48:20.63
and lying wonders,
00:48:20.66\00:48:22.20
he can continue to
hold them under his control.
00:48:22.23\00:48:26.74
Therefore, he directs his angels
00:48:26.77\00:48:29.74
to lay their snare,
00:48:29.77\00:48:31.57
especially for those looking
00:48:31.61\00:48:34.54
for the Second Advent of Christ,
00:48:34.58\00:48:37.05
and endeavoring to keep
all the Commandments of God.
00:48:37.08\00:48:41.75
Last year on the heels of
the Ten Commandments week,
00:48:41.78\00:48:44.15
and I want to
say this in context,
00:48:44.19\00:48:47.69
the gates of hell
were opened on 3ABN.
00:48:47.72\00:48:55.03
And I want to say because
we continue to go forward
00:48:55.06\00:48:57.23
telling it like it
is, the gates of hell,
00:48:57.27\00:49:00.04
are still opened against 3ABN.
00:49:00.07\00:49:02.60
But what Satan did
to Jesus was nothing
00:49:05.84\00:49:10.05
compared to what
Jesus did to Satan.
00:49:10.08\00:49:13.98
You see, brothers and
sisters, we are living in a time
00:49:14.02\00:49:16.15
where we are in a time
of certainty and uncertainty
00:49:16.18\00:49:20.12
at the same time,
00:49:20.16\00:49:21.49
a time of
decision and indecision
00:49:21.52\00:49:23.83
at the same time,
00:49:23.86\00:49:25.19
the hour of
stability and instability,
00:49:25.23\00:49:27.93
both are running side by side.
00:49:27.96\00:49:30.30
There are those that are
not sure who's in control.
00:49:30.33\00:49:33.87
But I wanna say to you today
that God is still in control,
00:49:33.90\00:49:36.37
what do you say? Amen.
00:49:36.40\00:49:38.11
In the night of
Israel's greatest cry,
00:49:38.14\00:49:40.91
God wiped away their tears.
00:49:40.94\00:49:44.45
In the hour of
their greatest bondage,
00:49:44.48\00:49:46.48
God broke the
shackles of slavery.
00:49:46.51\00:49:49.38
When Pharaoh
decided to lock Israel down,
00:49:49.42\00:49:52.55
God opened the
gates of delivery.
00:49:52.59\00:49:55.96
And so my brethren,
00:49:55.99\00:49:57.33
God is not just
good when this shines,
00:49:57.36\00:50:01.20
God is good even when it rains.
00:50:01.23\00:50:05.63
And God allows rain to come.
00:50:05.67\00:50:07.00
And by the way, I don't know
if you understand it very well,
00:50:07.04\00:50:09.00
but
agriculturally unless it rains,
00:50:09.04\00:50:11.87
nothing is going to grow.
00:50:11.91\00:50:14.01
Sometimes we grow
most when it rains,
00:50:14.04\00:50:17.08
sometimes we grow least
00:50:17.11\00:50:18.88
when the sun stays out too long.
00:50:18.91\00:50:20.88
I believe that God is
allowing it to rain on 3ABN,
00:50:20.92\00:50:24.49
so that we can grow better
than we have grown before.
00:50:24.52\00:50:28.36
What do you say?
00:50:28.39\00:50:30.03
So God does not
bring rain to frighten us,
00:50:30.06\00:50:32.56
God brings rain to prepare
us for the planting of the seed,
00:50:32.59\00:50:37.73
so that when the
latter rain comes,
00:50:37.77\00:50:40.50
we will be ready for
the Coming of the Lord.
00:50:40.54\00:50:44.54
And so my brethren,
00:50:44.57\00:50:45.91
when it looks like
it's not going to happen,
00:50:45.94\00:50:47.28
there's God, when it looks like
00:50:47.31\00:50:48.78
it's not possible at
all, then there's God,
00:50:48.81\00:50:52.78
when your eyes contradict
what your heart believes
00:50:52.81\00:50:56.72
there is God.
00:50:56.75\00:50:59.05
And so I'm not concerned
about the direction of 3ABN,
00:50:59.09\00:51:01.89
I'm not concerned about
the fight that we're fighting,
00:51:01.92\00:51:04.16
I'm not concerned about that,
00:51:04.19\00:51:05.53
because Jeremiah
the Prophet said,
00:51:05.56\00:51:07.40
"Is there
anything too hard for God?"
00:51:07.43\00:51:11.97
And brethren, God could do
00:51:12.00\00:51:13.34
more with those
have a lack of faith,
00:51:13.37\00:51:14.87
then God could do
with those who think
00:51:14.90\00:51:16.54
that they can do all
by their own strength.
00:51:16.57\00:51:20.18
But I want to close by
saying this, I did say close.
00:51:20.21\00:51:22.78
We are not free because
Satan chose to let us go,
00:51:25.98\00:51:29.75
we are free because
Jesus chose never to let us go.
00:51:29.78\00:51:35.92
When you fail to
see God's goodness,
00:51:35.96\00:51:37.66
all you'll see
is Satan's badness.
00:51:37.69\00:51:40.66
Don't let fear
dilute your faith.
00:51:40.70\00:51:44.37
Don't be afraid,
stand still and see
00:51:44.40\00:51:48.00
the salvation of the Lord.
00:51:48.04\00:51:49.97
I believe that
God in these last days
00:51:50.01\00:51:52.17
is going to pull off something
00:51:52.21\00:51:53.54
that we could not possibly
00:51:53.58\00:51:55.21
have imagined could
happen with a deficit.
00:51:55.24\00:51:58.51
To be down is nothing to God
00:51:58.55\00:52:00.28
because God never
runs out of resources.
00:52:00.32\00:52:06.05
But God sometimes
brings you to the point
00:52:06.09\00:52:08.69
where your plate is empty,
00:52:08.72\00:52:10.63
so that He can
fill it to the brim,
00:52:10.66\00:52:12.19
and you will know
that when it happens,
00:52:12.23\00:52:14.33
only God could have done it.
00:52:14.36\00:52:15.90
What do you say?
00:52:15.93\00:52:17.73
Sometimes God has to remind us
00:52:17.77\00:52:20.47
that there is
only one way to home.
00:52:20.50\00:52:24.34
He said to the
children of Israel,
00:52:24.37\00:52:26.91
don't spend time
looking in the rearview mirror,
00:52:26.94\00:52:29.54
it's time to go forward.
00:52:29.58\00:52:30.91
What do you say?
00:52:30.95\00:52:32.28
Don't spend time in
the pit of nostalgia
00:52:32.31\00:52:35.15
and in the maze of
mediocrity wondering
00:52:35.18\00:52:37.49
why things are not
the way they used to be.
00:52:37.52\00:52:39.65
The reason why
they're not is because
00:52:39.69\00:52:41.02
God has a different plan
than He had for the past.
00:52:41.06\00:52:44.99
God's got a clear our
mind from how it used to be,
00:52:45.03\00:52:48.00
so that God can show
us how it's going to be.
00:52:48.03\00:52:53.10
So we look back at
the last 22 years of 3ABN,
00:52:53.13\00:52:55.54
we say, "Man,
things were great."
00:52:55.57\00:52:57.64
But brethren,
things are going be
00:52:57.67\00:53:00.18
better than they were before
because God has not diminished.
00:53:00.21\00:53:03.08
God is better
than He has ever been.
00:53:03.11\00:53:05.61
What do you say?
00:53:05.65\00:53:07.52
Obstacles don't move,
however, when you stand still,
00:53:07.55\00:53:10.59
obstacles move only
when you go forward.
00:53:10.62\00:53:14.12
God said to the
children of Israel,
00:53:14.16\00:53:15.82
not just to go forward,
00:53:15.86\00:53:17.49
but all the river
and water before you
00:53:17.53\00:53:21.36
is not able to
stop your progress.
00:53:21.40\00:53:24.20
But it cannot remove unless
00:53:24.23\00:53:26.70
you put your foot
first in the water of faith.
00:53:26.74\00:53:30.81
And so my brother and my sister,
00:53:30.84\00:53:33.58
as we stand here today,
the water may look great.
00:53:33.61\00:53:37.95
But God is saying to us,
00:53:37.98\00:53:39.38
it's too late for
us to stand still only.
00:53:39.41\00:53:42.35
You got to know
when to stand still,
00:53:42.38\00:53:44.19
and you got to
know when to go forward.
00:53:44.22\00:53:46.05
Stand still and see
God defeat your enemy,
00:53:46.09\00:53:48.62
then go forward so
that God can part the way
00:53:48.66\00:53:52.09
and every obstacle
that appears to be designed
00:53:52.13\00:53:55.73
to defeat you will
become the very way
00:53:55.76\00:53:58.30
which God
pronounces your deliverance.
00:53:58.33\00:54:03.04
So I'm not concerned
about the enemy that pursues us
00:54:03.07\00:54:05.81
because he said to
the children of Israel,
00:54:05.84\00:54:07.71
the enemy that you see today,
you'll see no more forever.
00:54:07.74\00:54:11.38
So I'm not concerned.
00:54:11.41\00:54:12.75
And I want to say this clearly,
00:54:12.78\00:54:14.12
I'm not concerned
about what the internet says.
00:54:14.15\00:54:17.49
I'm concerned
about what God says.
00:54:17.52\00:54:20.29
I'm not concerned about
the sound of the chariots
00:54:20.32\00:54:23.49
from Egypt.
00:54:23.53\00:54:25.16
Because I know that
the God that brought us out
00:54:25.19\00:54:27.66
can block their way
with His divine flame.
00:54:27.70\00:54:31.53
I'm not concerned
about the heat in the day
00:54:31.57\00:54:33.44
because when it gets too
hot, God can give us a cloud.
00:54:33.47\00:54:37.41
When it gets too cold,
God can give us a fire.
00:54:37.44\00:54:40.54
Can you say, amen?
00:54:40.58\00:54:41.91
So I'm not concerned
about what I hear behind me,
00:54:41.94\00:54:43.85
I'm going to keep my eyes
00:54:43.88\00:54:45.21
fixed on the God
that's ahead of me.
00:54:45.25\00:54:46.58
What do you say?
00:54:46.61\00:54:48.62
And so they become fearful.
00:54:48.65\00:54:50.39
You know, there are times
00:54:50.42\00:54:51.75
that we don't know
how it's going to happen,
00:54:51.79\00:54:53.12
how it's going to pan out.
00:54:53.15\00:54:54.49
But we got to do what
God has told us to do.
00:54:54.52\00:54:56.32
You see there certain
things that we have forgotten.
00:54:56.36\00:54:58.66
You see, it was not Moses
00:54:58.69\00:55:00.06
that delivered Israel
from Egypt, it was God.
00:55:00.10\00:55:02.86
It was not Pharaoh that decided
to let them go, it was God.
00:55:02.90\00:55:06.03
It was not Moses that saved them
00:55:06.07\00:55:08.17
from the hand of the
angel of destruction,
00:55:08.20\00:55:11.17
it was God.
00:55:11.21\00:55:12.54
It was not Moses
that gave them water
00:55:12.57\00:55:14.91
or provided them
bread, it was God.
00:55:14.94\00:55:17.05
It was not Moses
that protected them
00:55:17.08\00:55:19.18
from the serpents and
scorpions, it was God.
00:55:19.21\00:55:23.08
It was not the people
00:55:23.12\00:55:24.95
that provided the
finances for 3ABN,
00:55:24.99\00:55:27.62
it was God.
00:55:27.66\00:55:28.99
And so my brother,
00:55:34.70\00:55:36.03
obstacles don't move,
00:55:40.10\00:55:42.57
if the people of God
just decide to stand still.
00:55:42.60\00:55:47.41
I'm going to close
with something that I feel
00:55:47.44\00:55:51.71
is absolutely necessary to do.
00:55:51.75\00:55:53.48
And that is to remind
Brother Danny Shelton,
00:55:57.19\00:56:03.02
Mollie Steenson,
Shelley Quinn, Pastor CA Murray,
00:56:03.06\00:56:09.83
Pastor John Dinzey,
00:56:09.86\00:56:12.43
and everybody that walks
through the doors of 3ABN
00:56:12.47\00:56:15.50
and those of you
that always joined with us
00:56:15.54\00:56:17.61
every day to pray for 3ABN.
00:56:17.64\00:56:20.81
It's time for us
to stop looking to man
00:56:20.84\00:56:23.48
and look unto Jesus the author
and finisher of our faith.
00:56:23.51\00:56:27.85
This work is not going
to be completed by 3ABN,
00:56:27.88\00:56:30.79
God's going to use 3ABN
in the completion process.
00:56:30.82\00:56:34.82
But Paul the Apostle
says, "God will finish the work
00:56:34.86\00:56:38.36
and cut it short
in righteousness."
00:56:38.39\00:56:41.26
So today, would
you stand with me
00:56:41.30\00:56:43.30
as we do
something that I believe
00:56:43.33\00:56:45.23
that we should
always do when we hear
00:56:45.27\00:56:46.90
the enemy coming behind us?
00:56:46.94\00:56:49.07
We ought to pray.
00:56:49.10\00:56:50.44
I believe that when
the enemy hears us pray,
00:56:50.47\00:56:52.37
he's got to stop
at the command of God.
00:56:52.41\00:56:55.34
And do something for me
00:56:55.38\00:56:56.71
as I would
encourage us all to do.
00:56:56.75\00:56:58.51
Let's join hands.
00:56:58.55\00:56:59.88
Join the hands of
the person next to you.
00:56:59.91\00:57:02.08
And we're going
to believe together
00:57:02.12\00:57:03.45
that the prayer of the righteous
00:57:03.49\00:57:08.86
the fervent
prayer of the righteous
00:57:08.89\00:57:12.29
will avail much.
00:57:12.33\00:57:14.63
Our Father God in Heaven,
00:57:14.66\00:57:17.90
we stand before the
God of all creation.
00:57:17.93\00:57:21.90
And Lord, we are in the
wilderness now wondering,
00:57:21.94\00:57:25.27
and sometimes it seem as
though our wondering is aimless.
00:57:25.31\00:57:30.35
But Father, help
us to never to forget
00:57:30.38\00:57:33.88
that what's behind us
00:57:33.92\00:57:36.38
does not equal
what's ahead of us.
00:57:36.42\00:57:39.69
The Promised Land is
still ahead of us Father,
00:57:39.72\00:57:43.06
and we've come too
far to turn around now.
00:57:43.09\00:57:49.36
We've come too far to give
00:57:49.40\00:57:50.93
the enemy
credit for our defeats.
00:57:50.97\00:57:54.04
We've come too far to say,
00:57:54.07\00:57:56.14
Can "God take us
the rest of the way?"
00:57:56.17\00:57:59.24
We've come too far to
doubt the Almighty Hand of God
00:57:59.27\00:58:02.41
who delivers in any
circumstance on any day.
00:58:02.44\00:58:06.05
And so Father, today
give back to Danny Shelton
00:58:06.08\00:58:08.62
the faith he had 23 years ago.
00:58:08.65\00:58:11.49
Give him back the vision he
had when the nights showed zero
00:58:11.52\00:58:15.42
in the bank and you
delivered the very next day.
00:58:15.46\00:58:18.53
Help him to understand that
before the asphalt was laid,
00:58:18.56\00:58:22.00
the vision was laid.
00:58:22.03\00:58:24.00
Before the antenna went up,
00:58:24.03\00:58:25.70
the angels were ready to carry
the message around the globe.
00:58:25.73\00:58:29.47
Father, help him to look back
00:58:29.50\00:58:30.84
to find courage to look forward.
00:58:30.87\00:58:33.21
Help him to stand at his window
some days and look out and see
00:58:33.24\00:58:36.58
what mighty
things that God has done.
00:58:36.61\00:58:39.68
And Father, may
Danny give God the credit.
00:58:39.71\00:58:42.38
May Danny give God the burden.
00:58:42.42\00:58:44.59
May he give God the
nights when his eyes are watered
00:58:44.62\00:58:48.02
from the tears of uncertainty.
00:58:48.06\00:58:50.73
And when he stands up and comes
00:58:50.76\00:58:54.00
and wonders what
to say to the people,
00:58:54.03\00:58:56.90
may he say the God
who might serve his able.
00:58:56.93\00:59:01.67
And so father, we are
committed to go forward today.
00:59:01.70\00:59:04.71
We're not going back to Egypt.
00:59:04.74\00:59:07.14
We're not going back to Pharaoh.
00:59:07.18\00:59:09.84
For we see the gleams
of the golden morning,
00:59:09.88\00:59:13.18
give us wisdom
to join hands today
00:59:13.21\00:59:16.62
and accomplishing
through our human strength
00:59:16.65\00:59:20.29
as we've filled
by Your Holy Spirit.
00:59:20.32\00:59:22.76
