God has sent me tonight for something very very special. Mungu amenituma usiku wa leo kwa kitu cha maalum sana. And I want you to pay attention on a serious note. Na nataka uzingatie kwa kumaanisha sana. I want us to read the Bible in the book of Isaiah. Nataka tusome Biblia kutoka kwenye kitabu cha Isaya chapter 6: 8 ile sura ya sita na mstari wa N Isaiah 6: 8 Isaya 6:8 also I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send and who will go for us? Then I said, "Here am I, send me." Isaya 6: N. Kisha nikasikia sauti ya Bwana akisema, "Ni mtume nani? Naye ni nani atakayekwenda kwa ajili yetu? Ndipo niliposema mimi hapa nitume mimi."
There's a challenge in the body of Christ. Kuna changamoto katika mwili wa Kristo. And to be specific na kwa umaalumu kabisa to people who claim that they can hear God, they know God. Kwa wale watu wanaodhani wanaweza kumsikia Mungu na wanadhani wanamfahamu Mungu, people claim that they are mature enough to understand the will of God. Watu ambao wanajiona wamekomaa zaidi kujua mapenzi ya Mungu. It is something that breaks the heart of the Lord when he wants to do something for us. hili ni jambo ambalo linavunja moyo wa Mungu anapotaka kufanya jambo kwa ajili yetu. It's the inability to respond to the calling of God for your life. Ni kutokuwa na uwezo wa kuitikia mwito wa Mungu kwenye maisha yako. As I stand here ninaposimama hapa there are many people watching me. Kuna watu wengi wananitazama you are mature. Wewe ni mkomu. Spirit filled. Umejazwa roho You know the voice of the Lord. Unajua sauti ya Bwana? And deep down in your spirit. Na ndani kabisa ya roho yako. Deep down in your spirit. Ndani kabisa ya roho yako. You know that God has called you for something. Unajua Mungu amekuitia jambo fulani. But you are not responding. Lakini hauitikii huo wito. You not say here I am Lord send me. Hausemi mimi hapa Bwana nitume mimi. It might not be preaching. Inaweza isiwe kuhubiri. It could be something else. ikawa ni jambo lingine kabisa. But all the same it's a calling from God. Lakini yote kwa ujumla ni wito kutoka kwa [Muziki] Mungu. And you've been feeling it for years now. Na jambo hili umekuwa unalihisi kwa muda mrefu sasa. But you busy building your career. Lakini uko busy pale unatengeneza taaluma yako. Busy making more money. Uko busy unatengeneza pesa zaidi busy trying to build what you call a foundation for my personal life. Upo busy pale kwa kutengeneza unachokiita ni msingi wa maisha yako binafsi. But that foundation you saying it's a materialistic foundation. is not a spiritual one. Lakini huo msingi ni msingi wa mambo ya mwilini sio msingi wa mambo ya rohoni. And this has been going on for years now. Na jambo hili limekuwa likiendelea kwa miaka sasa. You may want to call what I'm speaking now as a prophecy. Unaweza ukauita huu ujumbe kama unabii. It has been going on for years now. Umuwa ukiendelea kwa miaka sasa. And eventually na hata begun to. vitu vimeanza kutokea kwenye maisha yako and you don't know why they are happening na huelewi kwa nini vinatokea or would say this au naweza nikasema hivi things have stopped happening in your life vitu vimeacha kwanza kuendelea kusogea kwenye maisha yako. And you don't know why. Na hujui kwa nini? Let me tell you something. Ngoja nikuambie jambo. In life as a Christian, kwenye maisha kama mkristo there is nothing dangerous. Hakuna kitu cha hatari. like pretending you can't hear the calling of God. Kama ambavyo unaweza kujifanya usikii wito wa Mungu. It can quickly finish your life. Kwa haraka sana inaweza kumaliza maisha yako. You can't possibly hauwezi kimsingi pretend your living comfortably. Kwamba ukafoji kwamba unaishi kwa vizuri tu. Without responding to the calling of God. Pasiipo kuitikia wito wa Mungu. It's a danger. Ni hatari. very dangerous hatari [Muziki] sana would you consider what you've been feeling in your heart for all this time je unaweza kukifikiria tena kile ambacho umekuwa unakihisi ndani ya moyo wako mara hii tena do you really choose not to respond to that calling je ni kweli unachagua kutokuitikia huo wito. Some of you started hearing this when you are in your 20s. Wengine mlianza kusikia wito huu mkiwa mna miaka 20 na in fact in your early 20s. Hata hivyo ni katika miaka yako ya 20 mwanzoni speak now you are in the late 30s or in the 40s. Hata naposema saasa hivi uko kwenye miaka 30 na au 40 na. And you not started doing anything. na bado hujaanza kufanya chochote concerning that calling juu ya huo wito are you planning to give God the remains of your life je una mpango wa kumbakishia Mungu makombo ya maisha yako do you want to start doing it when you are too old je unataka kuanza kuufanyia kazi wa wito ukiwa tayari ni mtu mzima this is not a polite messag huu sio ujumbe wa kipole It's a warning ni onyo somebody has been feeling and hearing calling. Kuna mtu kuna mtu umekuwa unasikia na kuhisi wito wa Mungu kwenye maisha yako. But youve not been responding. Lakini haujataka kuitikia huo wito. Let me tell you something. Ngoja nikuambie kitu. God does not begin to send you. Mungu aanze kukutuma. until you respond mpaka uitike. He cannot begin to send you somewhere. Hawezi kwanza kukutuma mahala. He and when God sends you Na Mungu anapokutuma He prepares you first. Anakuandaa kwanza. But God cannot prepare you. Lakini Mungu hawezi kukuandaa. If you not responded. Kama wewe hujaitikia. So you always feel inadequate kwa mara zote utajiona hautoshei. Youl always give the excuse that I don't have the ability. Mara zote utatoa sababu kwamba sina uwezo. No. Hapana. God will not give you that ability. Mungu hawezi kukupatia huo uwezo. Unless first you say yes. Mpaka kwanza useme ndio. I am willing. Niko tayari. When you say I am willing, unaposema niko tayari, he begins to take you through a process. Yeye anaanza kukupitisha kwenye mchakato. Some of the things are so hard scared of of speaking them. Vitu vingine ni vigumu na ninaogopa kuvisema. I remember as I stand here, I remember a story of a man of God. Ninakumbuka hata ninaposimama hapa habari ya huyu mtumishi wa Mungu who started serving God ambaye alianza kumtumikia Mungu when all his legs were cut in an accident. Pale ambapo miguu yake yote miwili ilikuwa imekatwa kutokana na ajali. But the reason why his legs were cut. Lakini sababu kwa nini miguu yake ilikatwa? Because it was because of those legs. Ni kwa sababu ni kwa ajili ya ile miguu. I don't want to go deeper in the story. Sitaki kuzama zaidi kwenye ile habari. But because of those legs. Lakini kwa sababu ya ile miguu he was not able to respond to God. Alikuwa hawezi kumitikia Mungu. And God wanted him so much. Na Mungu alimhitaji sana. It sounds brutal. Inaonekana kama I make sense. But I pray. Lakini naomba that it doesn't happen to any of us kwamba isitokee kwa yeyote kati yetu. And when I say responding to the calling na ninaposema kuitikia wito let me repeat one more time. Ngoja nirudie mara hii tena. It's not necessary about preaching the gospel. Sio lazima kuhubiri injili. In a full time manner. Kwa kwamba wewe ni mtumishi wa moja kwa moja. It doesn't mean you have to be a pastor. Haimaanishi kwamba unapaswa kuwa mchungaji. It doesn't mean you have to be a full time evangelist. Haimaanishi kwamba unapaswa kuwa mujilisti wa muda wote. No hapana. There's what God is calling you to do. Kuna jambo ambalo Mungu anakuitia kulifanya. And has been speaking to you for years now. Na amekuwa akisema na wewe kwa miaka sasa. And you've been just pretending as if you don't know. Na wewe umekaa pale kana kwamba hufahamu. What are you waiting for? Unangoja nini? Do you want some kind of a problem to wake you up? Je unahitaji tatizo litokee kwako ili likuamshe? Why would you want to go there? Kwa nini hutaki option hiyo? Why would you want to go to that level? Kwa nini unataka kufikie hatua hiyo? Why can't you just respond? Kwa nini usiitikie tu mara hii? There are people who are crying to be called. Kuna watu ambao wanalilia kuitwa na Mungu. They are crying to be sent. wanalilia ili watumwe and God wants to send you na Mungu anataka kukutuma wewe and you not responding na wewe hauitikii tragic ni ajabu nobody is sent by god hakuna mtu anayetumwa na Mungu without being prepared pasipo kuandaliwa let's go in the Bible B again tusome bibilia [Muziki] tena 2 Timoth chapter 2 Timotheo wa P ya P 20 na ile ule mstari wa 20 we read all the way to verse 21 tutasoma mpaka mstari wa 21 2 Timoth chap 2: 20 and 21 Timotheo W 2: 20 na 21 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver but also of wood and clay some for honor some for dishonor basi Katika nyumba kubwa havimo vyombo vya dhahabu na fedha tu bali na vya mti na vya udongo. Vingine vina heshima vingine havina. Verse 21 mstari wa 21. Therefore if anyone cleanses himself from the latter he will be a vessel for honor. Sanctified and useful for the master. And here the last part. prepared for every good work. Basi ikiwa mtu amejitakasa kwa kujitenga na hao atakuwa chombo cha kupata heshima kilichosafishwa kimfacho Bwana. Sikia hii sehemu ya mwisho. Kimetengenezwa kwa kila kazi iliyo njema. Prepared. Kimetengenezwa. prepared kimetengenezwa to be prepared kuandaliwa au kutengenezwa is made ready ni kufanywa kuwa tayari when you respond to the calling of god unapokuitikia wito wa mungu for anything that he wants you to do in life kwa jambo lolote ambalo anataka ufanye maisha yako jambo lolote anything he calls you to do jambo lolote ambalo anakuitia the first thing he does kitu Cha kwanza anachofanya is to make you ready ni kukufanya wewe kuwa tayari is to prepare you ni kukuandaa and by that it means Na kwa hiyo inamaanisha to equip you kukutegemeza to give you everything you need for that assignment kukupatia kila kitu ambacho unakihitaji kwa ajili ya hiyo kazi character you need for the assignment tabia unayohitaji kwa ajili ya ile kazi money you need for the assignment pesa unayohitaji kwa ajili ya ile kazi watu unaowahitaji kwa ajili ya ile assignment mahali ambapo unahitaji kwa ajili ya ile the tools you need for the assignment vifaa ambavyo unavihitaji kwa ajili ya hiyo kazi the atmosphere you need for the assignment ile hali unayohitaji kwa ajili ya hiyo kazi married kwa wale ambao bado hawajaokolewa husband you need for that assignment mke au mume ambaye unamhitaji kwa ajili ya ule [Muziki] wito that is to be prepared hiyo ni kuandaliwa But in order to be enlisted in the college of preparation. Lakini ili uweze kujumuishwa katika shule ya maandalio ya kuandaliwa school of preparation katika shule au darasa la kuandaliwa in order to be enlisted ili uweze kujumuishwa. There's one prerequisite. Kuna vigezo vifuatavyo. Kuna kigezo kimoja. You have to say yes. Unapaswa kusema ndio. On a serious note. Kwa kumaanisha no matter what it takes. Haijalishi itakugharimu nini. Do not listen to the lies of the enemy. Usisikilize uongo wa adui. He tells people. Huwa anawaambia watu, if you serve God, ukimtumikia Mungu you shall be poor. Utakuwa maskini. If you serve God. Kama ukimtumikia Mungu nevery in hautakuwa na furaha maishani. If you serve God, kama ukimtumikia Mungu, people will despise you. Watu watakudharau. If you serve God, Kama ukimtumikia Mungu, you can't achieve one, two, three. Hauwezi kutimiza moja, mbili, tatu. The last one, I agree. La mwisho ninalikubali. If you say yes, ukisema ndio, there are things youl never achieve in your life. Kuna vitu kama hutavipata maishani. Those evil things you've been planning. Vile vitu viov ambavyo umekuwa unavipanga, God will spare you from them. Mungu atakutenga navyo can't achieve them. Hauwezi kuvipata. Because they are not in the will of God. kwa sababu havipo kwenye mpango wa [Muziki] Mungu. What is going on in your inside? Ni nini kinaendelea ndani yako? What? Nini? When are you planning to respond? Lini unapanga kuitikia? Let me ask a question. ngoja niulize swali when God calls you Mungu anapokuita, who determines when to respond? Ni nani anaamua lini aitikie? Oh R would ask this. Au labda ningeuliza hivi. What is the right time to respond to the calling of God? Upi ni muda sahihi wa kuitikia wito wa Mungu? I can bring in some more questions. Naweza nikaongezea maswali zaidi. If it wasn't the right time for you to respond, kama haukuwa wakati sahihi ya wewe kuitikia, why would he call you? Kwa nini angekuita? If it wasn't the right time, kama ulikuwa sio muda sahihi, why would he call you? Kwa nini akuite? Are you wiser than him? Je wewe una hekima zaidi yake? If it wasn't the right time, kama ulikuwa sio muda sahihi, why would he bother himself to come and call you? And he knows time belongs to Kwa nini angejisumbua anakuja kukuita wewe muda huo na muda ni uko kwake mikononi mwake? Think about that. Hebu ufikiri juu ya hilo. I say because there's someone out there. Nimesema hivyo kwa sababu kuna mtu pale. Who is telling himself ambaye anajiambia a selfdeception akijidanganya mwenyewe that it's not that I have refused. Kwamba akisema sio kwamba nimekataa. I'm waiting for the right time. Ninangojea wakati sahihi. It's not that I have refused. Si kana kwamba nimekataa. I can't refuse the call of God. Siwezi kukataa wito wa Mungu. Not the right time. Sio muda sa hii. And I want you to answer me this question. Na nataka unijibu swali hili. Why would God call you? Kwa nini Mungu akuite? If it's not the right time kama sio muda sa hii? Is there any parent watching me right now? Je kuna mzazi yeyote ananitazama saa hii? A mother or a father? Mama au baba? And you tell your little kid. Na unamwambia mtoto wako mdogo you call by her name or his name unamuita kwa jina lake Maria Maria please come maybe you in a kitchen tafadhali njoo na yamkini upo jikoni I am cominguja but they are not coming lakini hawaji. Oh Maria come au Maria njoo and they are quiet na wako kimya Maria come. Maria njoo and they are quiet na wako kimya are you refusing to come je unakataa kuja no I am not refusing hapana sikatai it's not like that mom sio hivyo mama I can't refus siwezi kukataa but they are not coming lakini hawaj want to tell you what will happ sitaki kukuambia nini kitatoke for me kwa mimi I know what I will najua nini nitafanya but for you can also choose what you do lakini wewe pia unaweza kuchagua nini cha kufanya now there are people who are treating God like that sasa kuna watu ambao wanaenenda hivyo mbele za Mungu they treat the calling of God wanaitikia wito wa Mungu as if it is something trivial in life kama ni kitu cha ziada tu kwenye maisha too small kitu ambacho ni kidogo. something that it will be attended for if there is enough time. Kitu ambacho unaweza ukaitikia tu labda ukiwa na muda wa ziada. Something that they will do after theyve done everything else. Kitu ambacho watafanya baada ya kufanya vitu vingine vyote? No. Hapana. Only children do that. Watoto pekee ndio wanafanya hivyo. If doing like that. Kama unafanya hivy hear me. I'm telling you on your face. Nisikilize nakuambia mbele ya uso wako. Don't call yourself a mature believer. Kama usijiite mwamini uliokomaa still wewe bado ni mtoto. You can treat God like that. Hauwezi kuenenda hivo mbele za Mungu. And then you claim that you mature na wewe ukajiita kwamba ni mkomavu. Just a baby. Wewe ni mchanga tu. And you are kept by the grace of God. Na unatunzwa tu kwa neema ya Mungu. By the mess of God. na kwa rehema za Mungu which I pray let it continue. Na ni maombi yangu kwamba hizo rehema na neema viendelee. May Godcious to you. Mungu awe wa neema kwako. May God be merful unto you. Mungu awe wa rehema kwako. You need that mercy. Unahitaji hizo rehema. You need it. Unahitaji. Because all else something else something terrible. Kwa sababu vinginevyo kitu kibaya kinaweza kikatokea. Now na sasa don't abuse the grace of God. Usichezee hiyo neema ya Mungu. It has been carrying you all along. imekuwa ikikubeba muda huu wote. The reason I'm telling you this message lakini ni sababu nakuambia ujumbe huu The reason the Holy Spirit has given me this message to declare it to you. Ile sababu kwamba roho mtakatifu amenipa ujumbe huu na nikutangazie probably yamkini someone is running out of time. Kuna mtu ana muda wake unafikia mwisho. Someone is running out of time. Kuna mtu muda wake unakaribia kuisha. My advice to you. Ushauri wangu kwako. It is time. Ni muda sasa to say yes Lord. Kusema ndio Bwana. I'm ready. Iko tayari. Whatever it takes. Itakavyonigharimu vyovyote. There are people who responded on hard callings in life. Kuna watu ambao waliitikia mito ambayo ni migumu kwenye maisha yao. And they became great. na wakawa ni watu waku. I can tell you the story of Noah. Naweza nikakuambia habari za Nuh. Responding to the calling of building a ship in a dry land where there is no ocean no river. Akiitikia wito wa kutengeneza meli kwenye nchi kavu ambao kuna mto wala bahari. Not even a swamp. Wala hakuna bwawa. For years he has been building that ship. kwa miaka alikuwa akitengeneza ile melikebu. And people were watching him. Na watu walikuwa wakimtazama laing at him. Wakimteka. Things he had gone crazy. Wakifikiri amechanganyikiwa. Only later to come and knock at the door. Tu baadaye wakaja kujikuta wanagonga. Noah please. Wakimba Noah tafadhali for us tufungulie. But it was too late. Lakini walikuwa wameshachelewa. He responded to a calling. Aliitikia wito. Abraham was rich already. Ibrahimu alikuwa tajiri tayari. He was comfortable where he was. Alikuwa yuko sawa tu pale alipo. He had already 300 people men walking under him. Alikuwa tayari ana wafanyakazi 300 wanafanya kazi chini yake. Someone can pay 300 men. Kama mtu ana uwezo wa kuwalipa watu 300. That is a very rich man. Huyo ni mtu tajiri sana. Alikuwa na ardhi. But God came and told him Lakini Mungu alikuja anakwambia from where you are ondoka kwenye hii nchi. To the place where I will show you. Uende mahali ambapo nitakuonyesha. He responded to that calling. Aliitikia huo wito. No question. Hakuna maswali. Elijah Eliya was told aliambiwa to walk for 40 days atembee mwendo wa siku 40 just to go and hear a
A few sentences from God, or hearing a few words from God—the same God who is speaking to him there—could have easily spoken whatever he wanted to speak to him right there. A hard calling, but he obeyed; he responded, walked for forty days; eventually, that voice that made a difference in his ministry came. David was called to be king. Many people would say, “Oh, hallelujah! I wish I was the one.” David was still king, Saul was still reigning—a very dangerous man—and you are called to go and replace him; he’s still there, and then you are told to go and live in his city. It wasn’t an easy calling. Responding to that calling made him a refugee. He started living in the jungles and in caves, hiding from King Saul.
It was easy to tell God, “This is what that calling means; please deregister me. Remove me from this list. Let me leave. Let me leave.” He could have moved from the group. It wasn’t an easy calling. Jeremiah’s calling was not easy. He was called during a very dangerous season in the nation of Israel. Prophets were being killed, and his calling was not to go and give a message of consolation. He was a prophet called to go and declare judgments. Imagine you are told to go and declare judgment to the president of Tanzania. You ask for an appointment; you go to State House and you declare judgment. Or, you are Russian and you go to Putin to declare judgment. That was the calling of Jeremiah; it wasn’t easy—face kings, tell them negative things, say that God is about to judge them. I’m just giving an example; I’m not declaring judgment to any president. Are you hearing me, children of God? The earlier you respond to the calling, the earlier you start. We’ve read a verse that says, “Vessels that are meant to be useful for the master have to be prepared for the work,” and that is the prayer I want everyone to pray.
Lord, whatever you’ve called me to do, I am asking you, please make it clear in my life and in my heart. Lord, I’m asking you, begin to prepare me; give me what it takes; give me the faith I need; give me the wisdom I need; give me the people I need; give me the money I need. You are guaranteed to prosper in the thing that God has called you to do, without fail. God cannot call you for something and not prepare you for that work. Isaiah said, “Here I am, Lord, send me.” Now let me tell you something. In the book of Acts, chapter 13, from verse 1 to 3—if there was someone to read, it would have assisted me on that—Acts chapter 13: Now in the church that was at Antioch there were certain prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manen, who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. They ministered to the Lord and fasted. The Holy Spirit said, “Now separate to me Barnabas and Saul for the work which I have called them.” Then having fasted and prayed and laid hands on them, they sent them away. Somebody shout hallelujah wherever you are. I want to remind you the story of Saul, who is also called in the Bible Apostle Paul. How was he called? On his road to Damascus, the Lord Jesus Christ appeared to him in a vision. The vision was so dramatic that he left that place blind. But he was prayed for by a man called Ananias, and he got filled by the Holy Spirit. God called him; Paul responded immediately. He went to preach the gospel in the same city that he was going to persecute people. But this was the time he responded; that was to tell Jesus, “I am ready.” But he was not prepared.
From that time, God took him through a process of preparation. He had the calling; he said yes, and God began to prepare him for some time. And he’s named who are teaching the word of God and prophesying in the church of Antioch. There was a time he almost ran away from the calling, but God raised a man called Barnabas, and he went and looked for him in his home village called Tarsus, or Tulso, and he brought him to Antioch. And Paul began to go through a preparation season. When that was done, listen carefully—when that was done, one day, as they were fasting, those teachers and prophets in the church of Antioch, as they were fasting, praying, and worshipping God, the Holy Spirit descended and said, “Separate to me Barnabas and Paul”—by that time called Saul—“for the work, for the work for which I have called them,” not just any work. It’s not like, “Oh, let’s go back to that.” Verse 2: As they ministered to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, “Now separate to me Barnabas and Saul for the work which I have called them,” for the work which I have called them—not for the work which I am calling him now—for the work which I have already called them. This is perfect past perfect tense; for the work which I have already called them in the past. And the clause comes and starts with the word “now.” Now, now, now—the time has come. After they laid hands on them, they let them go. Now, here is the lesson I want you to learn: Many people don’t realize that there’s a difference between being called and being sent. Those of you watching me online and you there in front of your screen—you can’t see, but there are people here where we are streaming from; there are people seated here. I just want to call one person; I just want to call one person. Mr. Msuya, can you please come here? Maybe you thought there are no people. You see, there are people. This is Mrs. Msuya. Mrs. Msuya has responded to the calling, but she doesn’t know why. Now the time for sending comes. Mr. Msuya, can you bring me one chair from there? Now that is the sending. And if you, in case you thought there are no chairs… Thank you very much. You may take your seat. Mrs. Dickson, can you come please? She has responded to the calling; she doesn’t know why. Mrs. Dickson, can you please take this chair and return it there? That is the sending. Are we together, children of God? Now, there are many people who don’t understand that. They are still struggling with responding to the calling. Respond quickly so that you are prepared towards your sending. Somebody shout, “Lord, prepare me.” Shout, “Lord, prepare me.” I am ready; Lord, prepare me.
Many people are wasting their time. Some are sent a code for business, but they are not responding. They are still clinging to that job. They are paying me 12 million; I can’t leave this job. God gave me this job. He gave you, but now if it is time he is calling you—the same God who gave you that job paying 12 million—why do you doubt him? Hear me very well. After you respond to the calling, God begins to prepare you. He will even subject you under certain people. Some of these people will be very nice to you; some of these people will be rough to you; some of these people will be very helpful to you. He will begin to build character in you. He will begin to put in you what you need for that assignment. Until… someone say again, “Lord, prepare me.” With power, say, “Lord, prepare me.” Say, “Lord, I am ready; prepare me.” Worship team, you’re there. Many people are called for great things, but they are afraid of saying yes. Say yes and begin to go through the process of being prepared. Don’t run away. God willing, we will continue with this tomorrow. That is what I think, not what he thinks. Give me something else. I’m just a vessel; I will obey. Lord, prepare me to be a sanctuary, holy, true, so true with thanksgiving. I’ll be a sanctuary for you, Lord. Prepare me, Lord, to be a sanctuary. Ask him to prepare you now. I’m ready, oh Lord. Sanctuary for you, Lord. Prepare me, Lord; prepare me to be a sanctuary, and holy, true, so true… Sanctuary for you. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Amen. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Amen.
Lift up your right hand as we conclude our program. Repeat these words from the bottom of your heart. Say, “Oh, Lord, if I’ve not been hearing you, open my ears; I’m ready to hear. Oh, Lord, if I’ve been afraid to respond, give me the courage and the boldness to say yes. Oh, Lord, I am ready; I belong to you, Lord; use me however you want to use me. I belong to you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen. Amen. Give a big hand to the Lord Jesus Christ. That’s not big enough; you can do better than that. You can do better than that. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Father, in the name of Jesus, bless your children; protect your children; Father, expand their territories; Father, strengthen the cords of their tents. Whatever passage they are going through, I ask you, oh Lord, please order their steps; do not allow them to stumble anywhere; level the ground ahead of them, Lord, as they strive to come near you; make it easy for them to come closer to you, Lord. Father, in the name of Jesus, we thank you for your protection this morning; we trust you for your protection throughout this night. Father, in the name of Jesus, bless our offerings which we bring to you, in Jesus’ name. Everyone say amen. Say amen. Good night. God bless you. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
