prayer and praise.
00:00:53.62\00:00:55.18
Listen to this testimony as
I read a rather lengthy but...
00:00:55.45\00:01:00.66
Listen here.
00:01:00.69\00:01:02.02
"He grew up in a logger's home,
the youngest of four children.
00:01:02.76\00:01:06.13
His siblings were much older
and had lives of their own;
00:01:06.23\00:01:09.23
his father and mother
were preoccupied managing
00:01:09.43\00:01:12.77
a tavern in the small
town where they lived.
00:01:12.80\00:01:15.24
Eddie was often
left to care for himself.
00:01:15.57\00:01:17.97
The local movie theater
was his babysitter on weekends,
00:01:18.27\00:01:21.11
and many times he came
home after the double feature
00:01:21.14\00:01:23.75
to an empty house.
00:01:23.78\00:01:25.35
Sometimes he sat in the
family car well after other
00:01:25.48\00:01:28.42
seven-year-old children
were asleep in their beds
00:01:28.45\00:01:31.12
and cried for his mother
to come out of the tavern
00:01:31.32\00:01:34.09
and to take him home.
00:01:34.12\00:01:35.49
When Eddie was 14, his
mother became a born-again
00:01:36.12\00:01:39.06
Seventh-day Adventist Christian,
and things dramatically changed.
00:01:39.09\00:01:42.70
Instead of patronizing
the tavern, his mother began
00:01:42.80\00:01:45.43
attending prayer
meeting and church services.
00:01:45.47\00:01:47.90
Eddie joined the
Seventh-day Adventist Church
00:01:48.17\00:01:50.04
with his mother and
enrolled in church school.
00:01:50.07\00:01:52.54
By the time he was 17, however,
he lost interest in church.
00:01:53.01\00:01:56.58
Two years later, he was
drafted into military service.
00:01:56.61\00:01:59.85
His pastor encouraged
him to get re-baptized
00:02:00.08\00:02:02.68
before facing the
dangers of battle.
00:02:02.72\00:02:04.82
This sounded like a great
plan, and Eddie agreed to do so
00:02:05.15\00:02:08.02
when he came home on leave.
00:02:08.06\00:02:09.86
He studied the
fundamental beliefs of the
00:02:10.06\00:02:11.89
Adventist Church
for a second time.
00:02:11.93\00:02:13.86
This provided head-knowledge,
but he still didn't know Jesus.
00:02:14.10\00:02:18.40
Eddie found that trying
to meet church standards
00:02:18.97\00:02:21.37
on his own was a challenge.
00:02:21.40\00:02:23.20
He was tired of
trying to be a Christian,
00:02:23.37\00:02:25.77
playing church, trying to obey.
00:02:25.87\00:02:28.28
He was so powerless to
maintain the Christian life,
00:02:28.51\00:02:31.58
and fell back into his old ways.
00:02:31.78\00:02:33.82
What was wrong?"
00:02:34.12\00:02:35.62
From, Steps to
Christ, page 44, it says,
00:02:36.38\00:02:39.45
"There are those who
profess to serve God,
00:02:39.49\00:02:42.09
while they rely upon their
own efforts to obey His law,
00:02:42.12\00:02:46.16
to form a right
character, and secure salvation.
00:02:46.19\00:02:49.66
Their hearts are not
moved by any deep sense
00:02:50.00\00:02:52.50
of the love of Christ, but
they seek to perform the duties
00:02:52.53\00:02:55.84
of the Christian life as
that which God requires of them
00:02:55.87\00:02:59.24
in order to gain heaven.
00:02:59.47\00:03:01.18
Such religion
is worth nothing...
00:03:01.51\00:03:03.91
A profession of Christ without
this deep love [of Christ]
00:03:04.15\00:03:08.18
is mere talk, dry
formality, and heavy drudgery."
00:03:08.22\00:03:13.46
"Eddie's mother and
sister attended an all-night
00:03:14.22\00:03:16.56
prayer meeting at the
church's New Year's Eve service.
00:03:16.59\00:03:20.20
They prayed
specifically for Eddie.
00:03:20.23\00:03:22.23
They saw the answer to their
prayers over the next few weeks
00:03:22.53\00:03:25.50
when things started
going wrong for him.
00:03:25.53\00:03:28.10
He lost his
girlfriend, his job, his car.
00:03:28.70\00:03:32.14
'Why is my world
falling apart?' he wondered.
00:03:32.44\00:03:36.28
After a night of
drinking with friends,
00:03:36.48\00:03:38.55
Eddie came home
in a drunken stupor.
00:03:38.58\00:03:40.88
He cried out, 'God, if
you're real, I need you!
00:03:40.98\00:03:44.72
I know a lot about you,
but now I want to know you!'
00:03:44.82\00:03:49.22
A sweet, still,
small voice made its way
00:03:49.72\00:03:52.33
through the fog in his mind:
00:03:52.36\00:03:54.06
'I AM real, and I love you.'
00:03:54.53\00:03:57.07
This broke his heart.
00:03:57.53\00:03:59.30
'How could You possibly love me
after how I've lived?' he asked.
00:03:59.33\00:04:03.64
'I'm so tired of
my life the way it is.
00:04:03.67\00:04:06.37
Please make me a true Christian.
00:04:06.41\00:04:08.58
I want to serve You
the rest of my life,
00:04:08.68\00:04:10.91
but I can't do it by myself.'
00:04:10.95\00:04:12.88
That night, Eddie
surrendered his life to Jesus
00:04:13.72\00:04:16.45
and accepted Him
as Lord and Savior.
00:04:16.48\00:04:18.72
He believed by faith
that his sins were forgiven
00:04:18.75\00:04:21.76
and that he was a new
creature in Christ Jesus;
00:04:21.79\00:04:24.73
old things were passed away.
00:04:24.76\00:04:26.80
Through this simple act of
believing the promise of God,
00:04:27.33\00:04:30.23
the Holy Spirit began
a work in Eddie's heart.
00:04:30.50\00:04:33.97
A new life emerged, and
Eddie did not turn back."
00:04:34.00\00:04:37.81
From, Steps to Christ, page 52,
00:04:39.14\00:04:41.38
"Now that you have
given yourself to Jesus,
00:04:41.71\00:04:44.31
do not draw back, do not
take yourself away from Him,
00:04:44.35\00:04:49.18
but day by day
say, 'I am Christ's;
00:04:49.22\00:04:52.65
I have given myself to
Him;' and ask Him to give you
00:04:52.69\00:04:57.16
His Spirit and to
keep you by His grace.
00:04:57.19\00:05:00.30
As it is by giving yourself
to God, and believing Him,
00:05:00.40\00:05:03.77
that you become His child,
so you are to live in Him.
00:05:03.80\00:05:08.17
The apostle says, 'As
ye have therefore received
00:05:08.37\00:05:11.57
Christ Jesus the
Lord, so walk ye in Him.'"
00:05:11.61\00:05:15.18
That's from Colossians 2:6.
00:05:15.21\00:05:17.48
"So Eddie began to read
the Bible and learned to pray.
00:05:17.98\00:05:21.18
As he studied the Scriptures
and learned more about
00:05:21.22\00:05:23.39
the love of God
through the life of Jesus,
00:05:23.42\00:05:25.65
his own life became transformed.
00:05:25.75\00:05:28.32
The drinking, smoking, and other
lifestyle choices that once
00:05:28.36\00:05:31.99
made him happy were no
longer part of his life."
00:05:32.03\00:05:35.56
That's the power of Christ to
act in and to transform a life.
00:05:36.63\00:05:42.17
Maybe you have an Eddie in your
life that you're praying for;
00:05:42.20\00:05:46.64
someone that you
know needs the Lord,
00:05:46.68\00:05:51.38
and they maybe even
have acknowledged that
00:05:51.65\00:05:53.85
they need the Lord, but they
can't do it in their own power.
00:05:53.95\00:05:59.12
We all know that.
00:05:59.15\00:06:00.49
None of us came to
the Lord in our own power.
00:06:00.52\00:06:02.72
It wasn't our idea.
00:06:02.76\00:06:04.23
God was seeking for us.
00:06:05.26\00:06:07.20
He brought us
into the fold, right?
00:06:07.46\00:06:09.83
That's right.
00:06:11.93\00:06:13.30
Let's just spend some
time praising God that
00:06:14.30\00:06:16.64
we are part of the fold.
00:06:16.84\00:06:18.47
We are part of the
wonderful family of God.
00:06:18.51\00:06:23.18
And He has accepted us.
00:06:24.08\00:06:30.62
He's working on
us. He's changing us.
00:06:31.19\00:06:32.95
Lord, we praise You that
You never give up on anyone,
00:06:33.05\00:06:36.29
and that You
heal our backsliding,
00:06:36.32\00:06:38.66
and that You love us freely.
00:06:39.83\00:06:41.76
Father, thank You for that.
00:06:43.30\00:06:44.90
For we weren't worthy.
00:06:45.57\00:06:47.04
We're still not worthy,
except for the blood of Christ;
00:06:48.20\00:06:51.77
that You make us worthy.
00:06:52.17\00:06:53.51
Lord, I praise You that
Your marvelous works are working
00:06:53.84\00:06:59.71
in the children of man.
00:07:00.15\00:07:01.85
Thank You for Your
marvelous works, God,
00:07:03.42\00:07:05.35
Your marvelous ways
that are a mystery to us.
00:07:05.39\00:07:07.92
Lord, we thank You for those.
00:07:10.49\00:07:11.89
Lord, we praise You for the joy
that we find in Your presence,
00:07:11.93\00:07:15.46
and that You are
giving us a hope and a future.
00:07:16.80\00:07:20.07
That's who You are, God.
00:07:21.40\00:07:23.04
We praise You.
00:07:23.14\00:07:24.47
Thank You.
00:07:28.74\00:07:30.08
Praise Him, praise Him,
Jesus our blessed Redeemer.
00:07:37.29\00:07:43.32
Sing, oh earth; His
wonderful love proclaim.
00:07:43.36\00:07:48.66
Hail Him, hail Him,
highest archangels in glory;
00:07:48.76\00:07:54.60
strength and honor
give to His holy name.
00:07:54.64\00:08:00.84
Like a shepherd, Jesus
will guard His children;
00:08:01.04\00:08:06.88
in His arms He
carries them all day long.
00:08:06.92\00:08:12.69
So I praise Him, I praise Him;
00:08:12.72\00:08:16.62
I'll tell of His
excellent greatness.
00:08:16.66\00:08:19.59
Praise Him, praise
Him, ever in joyful song.
00:08:19.63\00:08:28.34
Have Thine own way,
Lord, have Thine own way;
00:08:31.71\00:08:40.45
Thou art the
potter, I am the clay.
00:08:40.48\00:08:49.86
Mold me and make
me after Thy will
00:08:49.89\00:08:59.83
while I am
waiting yielded and still.
00:09:01.44\00:09:11.38
Now we come to a
time of confession
00:09:16.58\00:09:18.99
where we bring our
faults to the Lord.
00:09:20.06\00:09:24.03
We ask Him to cleanse us
00:09:24.79\00:09:26.59
and make us new.
00:09:27.60\00:09:29.13
Lord, I pray that You will
forgive us for holding onto
00:09:31.83\00:09:34.67
things that
separate us from You.
00:09:34.70\00:09:37.11
Lord, I pray that
You will help us to shed,
00:09:41.34\00:09:44.71
to get rid of those things
that stand between You and us.
00:09:44.75\00:09:52.19
Lord, I ask that You would
forgive us when we try to live
00:09:55.89\00:09:59.46
the Christian life on our own;
00:09:59.56\00:10:01.63
for it's nothing that we can do.
00:10:04.20\00:10:07.30
We have no power
to be holy on our own.
00:10:10.37\00:10:13.34
So forgive us for
trying to do it on our own.
00:10:17.21\00:10:20.95
God, I confess that I need a
personal experience with You.
00:10:23.25\00:10:29.62
Not just a head knowledge.
00:10:31.69\00:10:33.86
Lord, I can remember
all the books of the Bible
00:10:33.90\00:10:36.16
and all the scripture
in the books of the Bible,
00:10:36.20\00:10:39.60
but, Lord, I want
a heart knowledge,
00:10:43.87\00:10:46.11
a true experience,
00:10:47.14\00:10:49.08
a deeper
experience with You, Lord.
00:10:51.15\00:10:54.02
Forgive me when I
just make it from my head.
00:10:58.42\00:11:02.76
Have Thine own way,
Lord, have Thine own way;
00:11:08.96\00:11:17.71
search me and try
me, Savior, today.
00:11:18.37\00:11:27.92
Wash me just now,
Lord, wash me just now;
00:11:28.02\00:11:37.99
as in Thy presence humbly I bow.
00:11:38.23\00:11:48.14
Just take a few moments
to confess some sin to God.
00:11:52.57\00:11:57.25
Knowing He is faithful and
just to forgive us of our sin.
00:11:59.31\00:12:03.05
Thank You, Lord, for the
blood that washes our sin away.
00:12:24.27\00:12:27.71
1 John 5:14-15 reminds us,
"Now this is the confidence
00:12:35.82\00:12:41.89
that we have in Him;
that if we ask anything
00:12:41.92\00:12:45.83
according to His
will, He hears us.
00:12:45.86\00:12:49.43
And if we know that He
hears us, whatever we ask
00:12:49.93\00:12:54.30
we know that we
have the petitions
00:12:54.90\00:12:57.44
that we have asked of Him."
00:12:57.47\00:12:59.91
Thank You, God,
that You give us a heart
00:13:01.58\00:13:04.38
with new desires so
that we know what to ask.
00:13:05.31\00:13:11.49
So now I would ask
you to take some time to
00:13:13.25\00:13:20.66
make intercession for people
00:13:22.43\00:13:25.53
as we read through this list.
00:13:29.70\00:13:31.71
Lord, we ask You to give
us fully surrendered hearts
00:13:32.24\00:13:36.24
to live in
obedience to Your word.
00:13:37.18\00:13:39.58
Do you want that? I do.
00:13:40.38\00:13:42.52
Lord, please baptize us
daily with the Holy Spirit,
00:13:44.22\00:13:47.56
and make us more
diligent in our efforts
00:13:47.59\00:13:50.23
to win people to You,
00:13:50.33\00:13:52.36
to fulfill that
great commission.
00:13:54.20\00:13:55.76
I want that in my life.
00:13:55.80\00:13:57.57
Lord, we pray that our loved
ones who have left the faith
00:14:00.57\00:14:04.57
will remember what it was like
to begin fellowship with You,
00:14:05.01\00:14:08.81
and will long to
be reunited with You.
00:14:09.11\00:14:11.81
Help them to sense and to accept
Your love and forgiveness.
00:14:13.75\00:14:17.89
Oh Father, remind us what it
was like when we first knew You.
00:14:20.49\00:14:26.26
Father, please fulfill
Your promise in Joel 2:25
00:14:33.07\00:14:36.40
that says You
will restore the years
00:14:36.44\00:14:39.01
that the locust, that sin
itself, has eaten in our lives
00:14:39.11\00:14:44.51
and in the lives
of our loved ones.
00:14:44.55\00:14:46.65
Lord, give us faith to believe
that You will keep Your word.
00:14:48.78\00:14:52.35
Do you know that promise?
Do you cling to that promise?
00:14:54.66\00:14:57.29
We serve a God of restoration.
00:14:58.76\00:15:00.83
So take Him up on His promise.
00:15:03.83\00:15:06.94
Lord, we pray for the 16 million
people in the six least reached
00:15:09.87\00:15:14.44
cities of the
South Pacific Division.
00:15:14.48\00:15:17.61
We pray, oh God, for the
daily baptism of the Holy Spirit
00:15:19.11\00:15:23.42
on members as they reach
out in love to the unreached.
00:15:23.45\00:15:28.26
Father, You have
people all around this world.
00:15:29.42\00:15:32.63
Fill us with the urgency to
00:15:33.93\00:15:38.47
get out and be a
light to a dark world.
00:15:39.27\00:15:46.84
Lord, open doors of
opportunity with our neighbors,
00:15:48.44\00:15:52.38
with our family,
00:15:55.25\00:15:57.12
to witness to them.
00:16:00.16\00:16:01.72
God, may Your Word, may
the word of our testimony
00:16:02.52\00:16:07.60
fall on hungry hearts.
00:16:08.36\00:16:10.43
We pray that the Holy
Spirit would help us know how to
00:16:13.13\00:16:15.60
reach the 406 million people
in the 105 least reached cities
00:16:15.64\00:16:21.84
of the Northern
Asia Pacific Division.
00:16:22.18\00:16:24.71
406 million people.
00:16:26.72\00:16:29.98
That's why You've got to
have people all over this world.
00:16:32.85\00:16:35.79
406 million people need to hear.
00:16:37.53\00:16:41.66
God, make it happen.
00:16:43.70\00:16:45.17
And Lord, I pray
that You will please bless
00:16:50.37\00:16:53.98
as Adventist
chaplaincy ministries mobilizes
00:16:54.94\00:17:01.02
chaplains and
interested members to minister
00:17:01.12\00:17:04.12
to those in prison.
00:17:04.15\00:17:05.65
God, I thank You that You
have given me an opportunity
00:17:06.22\00:17:10.09
to be involved in the
prison ministry here at 3ABN.
00:17:10.13\00:17:18.17
And Lord, as I see
those precious, precious
00:17:20.74\00:17:25.37
men and women, they could
just as easily be my brother,
00:17:25.41\00:17:30.78
my dad, my son,
my mom, my sister.
00:17:30.81\00:17:36.69
Lord, they've just
fallen along the way.
00:17:40.72\00:17:46.36
As they are there in
prison, God, I pray that
00:17:47.50\00:17:50.37
You will send chaplains.
00:17:50.40\00:17:52.23
Put it on the hearts of men
and women to become chaplains.
00:17:55.10\00:17:58.87
Father, what no greater work.
00:17:58.91\00:18:01.61
Your Word says, "I was in
prison and you visited Me."
00:18:02.94\00:18:08.22
So thank You for
the chaplain ministry.
00:18:11.65\00:18:14.09
Father, for those again that
You have placed on our hearts
00:18:21.00\00:18:24.37
that we long to see
won to Your kingdom,
00:18:25.10\00:18:28.54
use us to pray for these.
00:18:32.41\00:18:35.31
Remembering the story
of Eddie, the testimony,
00:18:36.04\00:18:39.31
as his mother and his
sister went to prayer meeting.
00:18:40.05\00:18:44.35
They didn't give up on Eddie.
00:18:45.69\00:18:47.36
Oh God, help us not
to give up on those that
00:18:49.86\00:18:53.29
sometimes we see
them as helpless;
00:18:54.10\00:18:56.26
lost causes.
00:18:57.07\00:18:58.57
Lord, there are no
lost causes with You.
00:18:59.83\00:19:03.87
Thank You, oh God,
that You don't give up.
00:19:04.24\00:19:07.21
You never give up.
00:19:07.64\00:19:09.08
You never gave up on me.
00:19:09.71\00:19:11.58
Lord, I thank You for that.
00:19:12.81\00:19:14.68
So for that
mother who has a son who
00:19:17.55\00:19:19.99
just doesn't see the
point in serving You, oh God,
00:19:21.46\00:19:26.19
give that mother the
perseverance to keep praying,
00:19:27.96\00:19:31.07
and touch that son.
00:19:32.73\00:19:34.40
For the wife who is praying for
her husband to return to You,
00:19:37.24\00:19:40.78
oh God, hear her prayer.
00:19:45.88\00:19:49.62
Whoever you're praying for,
I pray right now that you would
00:19:55.12\00:19:59.63
just take some time.
00:19:59.76\00:20:01.40
You have God's attention.
00:20:04.33\00:20:05.90
Let Him know Your heart.
00:20:08.27\00:20:09.84
He knows who
you've been praying for.
00:20:10.57\00:20:13.14
He knows...
00:20:13.17\00:20:14.51
He wants them in the
kingdom more than you do.
00:20:14.94\00:20:17.45
So just take some time and pray.
00:20:18.78\00:20:22.38
Holy Spirit, work in our lives.
00:20:30.99\00:20:33.56
Sweet Holy
Spirit, work in our lives.
00:20:40.50\00:20:45.81
Bring the lost home to You.
00:20:49.58\00:20:52.45
Bring them home to You.
00:20:54.92\00:20:57.19
Father, for those who have
joined me in our time together,
00:21:02.89\00:21:07.86
God, we've got needs,
because we're a needy people.
00:21:09.53\00:21:14.70
You aren't our Genie,
00:21:19.71\00:21:21.58
but we ask You because
we need a touch from You
00:21:25.35\00:21:32.65
in our finances, in
our spiritual commitment,
00:21:33.05\00:21:37.49
in our health.
00:21:38.26\00:21:39.59
We need You.
00:21:39.63\00:21:40.96
We need You in our churches,
00:21:42.26\00:21:43.60
we need You in
our relationships,
00:21:43.63\00:21:45.50
we need You in our jobs.
00:21:46.33\00:21:48.30
Someone may need a car.
00:21:50.71\00:21:52.51
Someone is needing You,
00:21:57.21\00:22:01.48
they need Your
provision for a house.
00:22:03.02\00:22:06.09
Father God, meet these needs.
00:22:09.16\00:22:12.19
Thank You for being with us
every step of the way, Father.
00:22:18.83\00:22:21.90
You don't forsake us,
You don't give up on us.
00:22:21.94\00:22:24.67
All the way my Savior leads
me; what have I to ask beside?
00:22:25.17\00:22:33.65
Can I doubt His tender mercy,
00:22:33.75\00:22:38.29
who through life
has been my Guide?
00:22:38.32\00:22:42.96
Heavenly peace,
divinest comfort,
00:22:42.99\00:22:47.40
ere by faith in Him to dwell.
00:22:47.43\00:22:51.80
For I know whate'er befall
me, Jesus doeth all things well.
00:22:51.83\00:23:00.94
For I know whate'er befall me,
00:23:01.14\00:23:06.18
Jesus doeth all things well.
00:23:06.21\00:23:12.45
All of the way
my Savior leads me;
00:23:15.22\00:23:18.86
cheers each
winding path I tread,
00:23:18.89\00:23:22.36
gives me grace for every trial,
00:23:22.66\00:23:26.33
feeds me with the living bread.
00:23:26.53\00:23:30.54
Though my weary
steps may falter,
00:23:30.87\00:23:35.01
and my soul athirst may be,
00:23:35.04\00:23:39.58
gushing from the rock before
me, lo, a spring of joy I see.
00:23:39.61\00:23:48.56
Gushing from the rock before me,
00:23:48.79\00:23:53.23
lo, a spring of joy I see.
00:23:53.26\00:24:00.70
Oh, thank You for joy, Lord.
00:24:00.74\00:24:02.50
Oh, we sing for joy.
00:24:03.71\00:24:05.37
For Your
faithfulness, we thank You.
00:24:06.91\00:24:08.84
Thank You, Lord, that You
have given us the Holy Spirit
00:24:10.35\00:24:13.48
to continually
guide us into all truth.
00:24:13.82\00:24:18.12
Thank You, oh Father, for
working to answer our prayers
00:24:19.62\00:24:24.83
in ways that we can't see.
00:24:25.03\00:24:27.36
We can't even fathom how
You're going to make it happen.
00:24:27.40\00:24:31.47
But You do it.
00:24:32.20\00:24:33.54
And it's like You
joy to be creative
00:24:33.57\00:24:36.50
in answering our prayers.
00:24:36.77\00:24:38.54
Father, thank You.
00:24:39.14\00:24:40.48
Lord, we thank You in advance
for answering our prayers,
00:24:41.58\00:24:45.48
not because we are worthy,
00:24:47.85\00:24:50.12
but because Jesus is worthy.
00:24:51.59\00:24:53.66
Amen?
00:24:56.52\00:24:57.86
We have so much
to be thankful for.
00:24:58.16\00:24:59.93
Praise the Lord.
00:24:59.96\00:25:01.30
Lord, I thank You.
00:25:01.96\00:25:03.60
All the way my Savior leads me;
oh, the fullness of His love.
00:25:07.57\00:25:16.11
Perfect rest to me is promised
in my Father's house above.
00:25:16.44\00:25:25.09
When my spirit clothed immortal
00:25:25.39\00:25:29.79
wings its flight
to realms of day,
00:25:29.99\00:25:35.06
this my song
through endless ages,
00:25:35.10\00:25:39.43
my Jesus led me all the way.
00:25:39.47\00:25:44.17
This my song
through endless ages,
00:25:44.54\00:25:49.81
Jesus led me all the way.
00:25:50.35\00:25:59.32
So that means, if
Jesus is leading us,
00:26:04.99\00:26:09.06
what's our role?
00:26:09.60\00:26:10.93
To follow.
00:26:12.43\00:26:13.77
If you're going to be a leader,
you've got to have followers.
00:26:15.34\00:26:17.64
Right?
00:26:17.67\00:26:19.01
Well Jesus is the
one we're following.
00:26:19.47\00:26:21.58
So I encourage
you to follow Him.
00:26:22.04\00:26:24.88
Get in the Word.
00:26:26.38\00:26:27.82
2019 can be the
best year of your life
00:26:28.85\00:26:34.59
if you will surrender to Him.
00:26:35.56\00:26:37.13
Commit your ways to Him.
00:26:37.76\00:26:40.33
Let Him know that
you've decided to follow Jesus,
00:26:44.03\00:26:48.10
that you're committed.
00:26:49.10\00:26:50.44
There ain't no turning back now.
00:26:51.21\00:26:53.07
And He will be
faithful to lead you
00:26:57.55\00:26:59.71
beyond your wildest imagination,
00:27:01.32\00:27:03.99
because He loves you.
00:27:07.06\00:27:08.69
Thank You, Lord.
00:27:16.00\00:27:17.47
Thank You, Lord, for leading us.
00:27:20.27\00:27:23.00
Thank You, Lord...
00:27:26.78\00:27:28.91
...that You never fail us.
00:27:36.72\00:27:38.82
I love You, Lord.
00:27:42.36\00:27:44.63
And I lift my
voice to worship You.
00:27:45.36\00:27:51.93
Oh, my soul, rejoice.
00:27:52.03\00:27:55.10
Take joy, my
King, in what You hear;
00:27:57.11\00:28:05.31
may it be a sweet, sweet sound
00:28:07.35\00:28:14.99
in Your ear.
00:28:15.72\00:28:18.39
I invite you to
come back tomorrow night
00:28:23.83\00:28:26.13
as we continue our
ten days of prayer.
00:28:26.17\00:28:29.40
God is good all the time.
00:28:31.44\00:28:33.94
He loves this time
we're spending together.
00:28:35.98\00:28:38.21
Any time we gather to pray
to Him or to talk about Him,
00:28:40.12\00:28:44.12
He's keeping track.
00:28:44.62\00:28:46.09
Because He loves
00:28:50.43\00:28:52.26
when we gather in His name.
00:28:54.90\00:28:57.10
We're His children.
00:28:57.13\00:28:58.47
If you have children,
you know what it's like
00:28:58.57\00:29:01.30
when they sit and talk
about you in a good way.
00:29:01.34\00:29:06.98
Well, I have no other way
but good when it comes to God.
00:29:08.68\00:29:12.15
For His goodness
far exceeds my mind.
00:29:13.28\00:29:19.05
So be sure and check out
the tendaysofprayer.org website.
00:29:19.62\00:29:24.49
Call your
neighbor, let them know
00:29:27.76\00:29:29.43
that you are praying for them.
00:29:29.46\00:29:31.23
Call your son or daughter.
00:29:32.00\00:29:33.57
Remind them again
you are praying for them.
00:29:33.67\00:29:37.11
It's not a lost cause, friend.
00:29:38.31\00:29:40.34
It's not in vain.
00:29:42.04\00:29:43.85
If you're working for the Lord:
00:29:44.91\00:29:46.61
preacher,
Sabbath school teacher,
00:29:48.02\00:29:50.85
it's not in vain.
00:29:51.52\00:29:52.85
Be blessed.
00:29:52.89\00:29:54.22
