I wanna share on several lessons from the trials of the righteous. Seven lessons from the trials of the righteous. We want to look at risk scriptures who begin our journey with by looking at three scriptures this morning. Please open with me to Genesis chapter 15. We'll look at verse 13 and 14. Genesis chapter 15, verse 13 and 14.
[Music]
"You can respondents regions for evening. We will be embraced as slaves for 400 years." What a Buddhist tradition that is. This another end, they will come away with great swing.
Now let's take a journey. Let's move to Luke chapter 24. Luke chapter 24, verse 1 to 8. The women went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared. They found that the soul had been rolled away from the entrance. The wealthy, but they didn't find the body of the Lord Jesus. As this truth, it wasn't to men's clothing in dazzling woods. The women were terrified and bowed with their faces to the ground. Then the men asked, "Why are you looking among the dead for someone who is alive? He isn't here. He's risen from the dead. Remember what she told you, but in Galilee, the Son of Man, the Son of Man, must be betrayed into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and be crucified."
"Under Ted, they can take that verse 7 one more time. Yes, the seventh man that the Son of Man must be betrayed, must be betrayed into the hands of sinful men, be crucified, be crucified. He would rise again, and that he will rise again." The under today, the state. Then they remember, then they remember that he had said things.
Now let's go to Job chapter 1. Before the Book of Psalms, we have the Book of Job. Job chapter 1, and we're going to read from verse 6. "One day the members of the heavenly cause king, and the King Satan came with them. Where you come from? I have been shown in the earth, watching everything that is going on." Then the Lord Maxie, "Have you noticed my supper, Joe? He is the finest man in all the earth. He's blameless among of complete integrity. He feels God has stays away from evil." Requests the Lord, "Yes, what Job has good reason to fear God. You have always put a wall of protection around him and his home and his property. You have many prosper in everything he knows. Look how Ritchie's Poor Richard's can take away everything he has, and it will surely cost you to your face."
"All right, you mean testing the law state system. Do whatever you want with everything he possesses, but don't have him physically." The Lord's presence. "One thing." When Job's sons and daughters were pristine at the oldest brother's house, a messenger arrived at Job's war with this. "Your awesome. We will notice feeling beside. When the subjects raided us, they stole all the animals. Kilo the other servants. I, I am the only one who escaped to tell thee." Why was this week? Awhile. It was to speak. Another messenger, another messenger came. This news with the news. "The fire of God has fallen from heaven. Your she bound up the ship, all the chiffons and all the Shepherd. I am the only one who has kids. It's only one way scared to tell the story." Why was this? And why he was to speak. Third message. I came. Three pounds of charging Raiders. Yes, stolen all the coming. Kill the only one. While he was to speak. I'm not that messenger. Came. Your songs and your daughter. Their fisting India orders brothers. Woman, suddenly we a path. We sweat in from the widow. The house collapse and all your children are dead. I am the only one. I'm the only one to tell you."
"Escape to 30." Jobs to doll. Then Job stood up until he tore his open shot down to worship. He said, "I came naked from my mother's womb. Came they care for my mother's will. Be naked when I leave. Yes, the Lord gave me what I have, and the Lord has taken it away. Praise the name of the Lord." All of this, Joe did not see by believing God. Alleluia.
Several lessons from the trials of the righteous. Most of the time, temptations come in two major dimensions. Sometime ditions comes come in the form of trials, and some of the temptations come in the form other tests, the form of an examination. Juke chapter 1 and 2 tells or shoes was clearly the dimensions of temptations Arkham estrellas, and the account of Abraham moon with the Lord in Genesis chapter 22 shows us the classic example of a test, an examination coming from the Lord in someone.
Psalm 18 verse 16. Psalm 18 verse 16. The Living Bible says, "He reached down from heaven and took me and drew me out of my great trials, out of my great trials. You rescued me from deep waters."
Much after verse 1. Matthew chapter 4 verse 1. King James Version says, "Then was Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil." Matthew 4 verse 1. Contemporary English fashion. He says, "The Holy Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness so that the devil could test him, so that the devil could test him." The message Bible Matthew 4 verse 1. He said, "Next, Jesus was taken into the winner, into the wide by the spirit for the test. He was taken into the wide by the spirit for the test. The devil was ready to give it."
In Genesis chapter 22 verse 1. King James Version. He says, "And it came to pass after these things that God did tempt Abraham." God did tempt Abraham. I said unto Him, Abraham. And said, "Behold, ya." Amplified Bible Genesis 22 verse 1. "Now after these things, God tested the faith and commitment of Abraham." Contemporary English fashion Genesis 22 verse 1 says, "Some years later, God decided to test Abraham. God decided to test Abraham." The Voice Bible Genesis 22 verse 1. "Is after a period of time, God decided to put Abraham to the test. Decided to put Abraham to the test."
First Corinthians chapter 10 verse 13. First Corinthians that are 10 verse that in King James Russia is, "They had no temptation taken you, but such as is common to man. But God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able, but will with the temptation also make a way to escape that you may be able to be eight." Good news translation. First Corinthians 10 verse 13. "Every test is called a test here. King just calls it a temptation. Every test that you are experienced is the kind that normally comes to people, but God keeps his promise, and he would not allow you to be tested beyond your power to remain farm. At a time you are put to the test, he will give you the strength to enjoy it and so provide you with a way out." For someone listening to me this morning, that is going to be a way out. The message Bible fresco in John 10 verse 13. "Not test or temptation that comes your way is beyond the cost of what others have had to face. All you need to remember is that God will never let you down. God will never let you down. God would never let you down. He will never let you be pushed past your limit. He will never let you be pushed past your limit. He will always be there to help you come true it. You are coming true it. You are coming true it."
Job chapter 1 verse 12. Do one verse to AB New Living Translation. "This is alright. You may test him, the Lord said to Satan. Do whatever you want with everything he possesses, but on ham him physically. You may just him. You may test him."
Yes, some common trials and temptations and challenges that believers have been exposed to overtime and are still being exposed to currently. The Bible is telling us clearly that these things are not new, and it gives us hope and assurance that the Lord would always be watchful over whatever will be permitted to be exposed to. So for whatever you'll be exposed to, there will be divine enablement for you to withstand it. And anything that will be beyond your capacity to withstand, the Lord certainly will not stretch you beyond that point. When these dryers can come in different ways. Some trays come in the form of devastating losses, such as was experienced by Job. Devastating losses. So you can believe in a very godly life, you worship the Lord on a daily basis, you avoid sin, you are very prayerful, you engage in spiritual warfare. There is nothing wrong about your spiritual foundation. So it has nothing to do with deliverance. Yes, you will be exposed to devastating losses. David himself encountered bees.
Infest Corinthians chapter, I'm sorry, First Samuel chapter 30 verse 4. First summer chapter 30 verse 4. The devastating losses can come sometimes in the loss of a dear one, someone very dear to your heart. Sometimes it could be a spouse, it would be a son, a daughter, could be a sibling, a brother, a sister, could be a very loved father, lebbe loved mother, loved frame, could be someone who has been there for you all true. The loss of a dear one. And sometimes this losses could be in the form of material losses or financial losses, major financial losses, major material losses. The kind of loss that will take years, years to ever gather back again. They could be the loss of your most valued asset. That is what the enemy will come after. The loss of your most valued asset. So that it could be the loss of a lifetime opportunity. I know there are some losses that are even more devastating. For instance, the loss of a loved one that happens suddenly. The loss of a loved one that happens, you know, in every room of an untimely death. It's not yet that loved one is not so old. And so when it happens, it, it's very devastating. If someone has been ill for a prolonged period of time, the longer the period of time, the greater the possibility that your mind is already been reconditioned to begin to think of the possibility of the exit of that person. And more prolonged it is, then the greater the possibility that your mind is already gradually accepting the possibility of that person going transitive. But one of the most devastating loss that anyone could experience is when lose a very dear one suddenly. Suddenly, your mind never expected you. In your heart, in your mind, it had never been expected. Possibly someone you saw in the morning, and by noon, you are hearing the person is gone. So this is happened to the to the righteous.
Trials also can come repeated disappointments. Repeated disappointment, especially for some people at the point of brick. You repeated disappointment. A point Oh preacher who come due to repeated failed attempts to achieve something. Khan realized expectations, inability to achieve what others have easily achieved. Sometimes it could be delay in getting married. That could be the trial. Delaying getting married. If you look at first Corinthians chapter 7, it will make it look like marriage, getting married was supposed to be, was never supposed to be such a difficult issue as it has turned out to be today. Is that to avoid fornication? Let every man have his own wife, and every woman our own husband. So it's more like when you are ready, once you are ready, once you are ready, marriage is supposed to just happen. We should be able to find a husband, find a wife. Significantly still easy for the men to decide, and you know, but it's much more difficult for the women, especially godly woman. So delay in getting married, sometimes delay in getting in having children could be the trier. Delay having children. Gradually stretches to five years, before you know it's 10 years, 15 years, 20 years. We saw Rebecca go through this. You saw Sarah go through this as well. And this way to women who God has spoken clearly to their husbands. God spoke clearly to Abraham. God spoke clearly to Isaac. Yet Sarah had to wait for 25 years. God spoke clearly to Isaac. Yet Rebecca had to wait for 20 years. So the track could be in the rain of delayed having children, and it brings frustrations. By Genesis chapter 16, Sarah, who was tired of waiting, and she actually concluded that it wasn't going to happen again, and that was how the option of Hegel and Ishmael eventually came into place.
Tranes can also come through setbacks. Major setbacks. And therefore, some people repeated major setbacks. The things that will happen, and you hear people say, "Him again." Repeated major setback. And that reminds us of a Luke chapter 7. The window of me. The way that woman lost. The woman has lost her husband, and she was left with the consolation, and that was a son. And then the enemy struck again, and killed a soul. That it was so devastating setback that the Bible tells us that the entire city, those elders don't go out for the burial of a boy. But something unusual happened in the default away. The death of that boy, young boy, the young, the middle of each day old, everyone came out. Hadn't many in that city came out. Everyone was in grief, including the strong and hadn't. It was too much of a setback. These things happen. We have seen people lose three to when the same day. Some for the same day. So find the same day. The some have lost both this house and the children the same day. Most of the time, when it when it happens involving the spouse, eat most of it. What will make it more painful is that reviewed you do a research, you will discover that that was an excellent marriage. Does an excellent marriage? So sometimes the track I come in the form of a major setback. If repeated major setbacks. Is it not the same man that you know that something had that thing happened to the other time? Is the same woman that lost? You know that this has happened to again? Ha! I hear people scream. They make all kinds of expressions. This happened not just to anyone. It happens to people close to God. People close to God, very close to God, God loving people, true worshipers.
And sometimes come in the form of overwhelming Bodines. Overwhelming responsibility. Good moments. It almost breaks you. It breaks you visually. Over women bodies. Overwhelming responsibility. It comes to a point where you can't even afford the basic needs of life, either for yourself or for the children. And sometimes it's even okay when it has to do with the with an adult. But it's even more painful and unbearable when it has to do with provision for the children. Sometimes this will come uniform of overwhelming depths. The type that would take so much and so long to repeat. But for someone listening to me right now, help is coming. Help is coming. Let your amen connect with heaven.
So trials can come in the realm of an excessive hardship. Excessive hardship. There's a kind of hardship that is qualified as misery. Assess if hardship. And trans can come for some other people in the realm of prolonged stagnancy. Obvious lack of progress. Five years ago is still the same thing. Ten years ago is to the same thing. Fifteen years ago, still the same thing. In fact, it sometimes annoy begins to result in Detroit. Detroit in standard of living. Things are changing and changing negatively. Things are depreciated. Trans for the righteous can also come in a real or betrayer. Yes, track and come for the righteous in the realm of betrayal. Jesus himself experienced this as part of the trials he was he was destined to face. He was destined to face betrayal. Sometimes the betrayal can come from a very close or trusted associate. From a very close or trusted associate. He come from a spouse or an intended spouse. Betrayer candy no can come from a friend or a relative. When it happens from people in any of these three contests I just mentioned, it becomes more devastating.
Because multifaceted triads can come for some people in the area of prolonged mistreatment. Prolonged mistreatment. Prolonged oppression. Prolonged exploitation from people. From someone you cannot avoid. Sometimes it could even be in the workplace. It could be indeed in the realm, the space of your pursuit of your career, where your efforts are deliberately frustrated. So one could be the university with very weird sexual harassment is very prevalent. So when it's happening in the department, you cannot even report anywhere within that institution because it's all over. In fact, when you report, then the damage you suffer will be greater. So when you choose to keep to your moral values, then you'll be deliberately frustrated by that run. Directly Chara and also come in the form of rejection. In the form of rejection. Consistent rejection despite determined efforts to reverse it. The repeat-x show of hatred, especially from someone who ought to love you. You can imagine it's flowing from Dearing's or a garden towards a child can be most frustrated. Because imagine this happening from children towards a parent, the father or the mother. You can imagine it flowing from a brother or sister to another brother or to a sister. You can imagine hate, real heat flowing from a husband to his wife or from a wife to her husband. If you, if you study this sounds very well, you see the word enemy and for being used together in the same class. He said, "The Lord delivered me from my enemy and my for." So they are not the same thing. They are not the same thing. It was not until some years back that you know, a seasoned vessel in the Lord gave very good insight and better understanding on the difference between an enemy and for. That they are not the same thing. A foe is an extreme of an enemy. And any me most of the time has a reason for being an enemy to you. But it for has no reason. So if you, if you have an enemy, once you decide to just give up what is the source, the point of contention to that enemy, and emitting will end. But for a for, even if you give up anything, the attacks will continue. If ou can even sacrifice something good for him, haha. If it will bring pain and grief to his wife, for it's as bad as that. And there are godly men and women going through these experiences. Going, and you see a like I said, we are from people you cannot avoid. Is work. So if it is from someone who you can avoid, you could even resign. If it's your workplace, you can resign and stay without a job for a long time, just to be free from that pain. But it could be very bad when it's coming from someone you cannot avoid, from a father, from a mother, from a wife, from a husband, from a sibling. You must have it in mind that there is a price to pay. There is a price to pay. It reprise to be to be chosen by God. There is a price to be. You are not just an ordinary person. You are favored person by aronia priesthood. You carry a peculiar destiny. Nobody has a simply template as your own template. You are not exactly the same thing as any other person. No wonder in the realm of biometrics, your fingerprints are different. Even if with God, Jesus Australia were to have up to 30 billion people, your biometrics will still be different. Your fingerprints to be different. You are peculiar. You are special. The Lord Himself says concerning you in Jeremiah 29 verse 11, that he has plans for you, and these plans are plans of good, are not of evil. Praise ye the Lord. But there is a prize. There's a price you pay when God begins to single you out, just like Job. And you can see that Satan was already attacking Job. It was already attacking Job all these years. He was at, but all his attacks failed. So on the day that God decided to testify of Job, Satan now began to confess. We know him. We know him. Job was not a stranger to sittin and confessing that, you know, the reason why you know he's so committed is because you have put a hedge of protection round about him. So all those years it done had been trying to afflict you, what he field, but he failed. And there are some of you right now that have been under serious and intensive attacks from the kingdom of darkness and from wicked men and women. But the good news I have for you is that trials of the righteous do not last forever.
[Applause] [Music]
That means to come your way, it cannot be forever. It cannot be forever. You will see the end of that attack. That attack will not see your end. You will see the end of that problem. That problem will not bring about your end. Let it happen. Hear your amen.
So one of the price you must pay as a favorite son or daughter of God, as a man or woman of of great destiny, is that you are going to face friars. You are going to face friars. You have a price. You have the price. It's not just easy to be God's choice. It's not just easy to be, you know, the favored one of the Almighty. There's a price that comes with it. Most of the time, most of the observed that all the women who we are burying for over ten years in the scriptures, when eventually they had a child, none of those children were ordinary children. None of those children we had naughty children. They were all children of great destinies. In fact, in long that the time, the period of their Berenice, the the greater the destiny of the child. And forget about it, had nothing to do with scene. It had. Look at Elizabeth and her husband Zacharias. God himself acknowledged. The Holy Spirit made it clear. He said, "They were both blameless before God." Not in the sight of men, they were bloodless. Yet then they will left barren for so many years, and they remain committed. They were serving God, worshiping, present ministry over the years. It's one of the prize that we will have to pay. Please that we will go through trials. Will be faced with trials. So we need to understand this, and we need to understand the dynamics of how these things happen. So we can check the right position when trials begin to manifest. Some people have killed themselves. So people are taking their lives in the midst of trials. And that is why in the church, you must, you must belong to a local church, and you must not isolate yourself. We didn't look at church. It will be wrong. After you have been in a local church, you've been worshipping for a given period of time, and after that time, the key leaders in that church, the pastor, it still doesn't know you by name. Every church, you have a system and structure. The mix is easy for people to be assimilated into the system. So within a short while, whoever comes in is into the system, and we can identify when the person is not around. The person is going through challenges. It can their ways, distance can be monitors, monitored in many churches. We have cell groups, but not more than 10 or 12 people with someone watching over them. And those watching about them also have someone watching over them at another level. And even the ministers and pastors have someone watching over them. Praise ye the Lord. So there is a price that we must pay for being God's chosen vessels and God's favorite one. And one of them is in the realm of trials. And when we're talking about the price, we are referring to the sacrifice you will need to make. Yes, you will need to make some sacrifices for you to become what God has truly ordained you to be. You need to make some sacrifices. You will need to sacrifice your sometimes your career for your marriage. The time will come when you have to choose between your marriage and your husband. You choose between your career and your husband. And God will expect you, as a true meeting of God, to rather sacrifice that job. There are some business opportunities that can make you an instant millionaire. But everyone that has gotten something through that route ended up in infidelity. If he doesn't come before, it will come after. Everyone that has gone through that channel ended up on the bed with someone that was not their husband. So one day that kind of will come before you, and when you look at the Prophet, you look at the game, you become an instance Melania. And the question will arise, are you going to go for it? Because once you do that, you've lost your status as a virtuous woman. You lose many things before God, before your spouse, before your children. Does the price? The price also talks about the challenges and difficulties you will face. Challenges, difficulties you face. It talks about the frequent temptations. Frequent temptations that you will face. Shriek when temptations. The price is also about the disadvantage is the inconvenience that discomfort that you will face as a chosen vessel of God, as a favored vessel of God. The price is about what you must suffer. What you will lose. The attends you will lose. Yes, there are things you will lose. There things you will lose. You may even be in courtship, having waited for such a long time, and you may lose that man because the point will come when is obvious that is insisting on premarital sex. I mean, God, that's your own test. God will not wants to see why. Whether like many other young desperate ladies, he would rather just let him have his way and get married to him. Oh, refused to allow him have his way and possibly lose an opportunity to be married. But there is so much compromise going on now. So much compromises. So much compromise. Trials have to do with the hostility your face. People who hate you because of your stand, your beliefs, your principles. People will hate you sometimes at your workplace because we are the one blocking them. They try to give you signals that compress cooperate and let's do it this way. But you know, you choose to be the Joseph who will not only resist evil, evil from his close associates, he will even report them to the Father. And whenever you choose to be a Joseph, you'll be hated by people very close to you. That could be part of the trap. The shame, the ridicule you will face. The shame you will face. The longer period you will have to wait. That could be the prize. That could be your own trial. There are many young women today, many eligible single women today, who could easily have been married long time ago, but because of their stand that they won't compromise, they continue to lose setting single men that have come their way. And that is the price. You are getting older. They are seem to be getting more stronger for an impossible for you, but you still choose not to compromise. The price also has to do with the penalty. The penalty. The punishment. Define the persecution that you will have to things. The price has to do with the huge loss that dishonor. So much inconvenience. Tough conditions. Tough conditions. Insults. Mockery. Mockery. Mockery that you'll be exposed to because of your values, your beliefs, your stand. The price has to do with spiritual attacks that you will face coming from all kinds of quarters. So my witchcraft arrows, somehow arrows from the marine water kingdoms of our arrows of a cotism ancestry, all kinds of spiritual attacks be projected against you day and night endlessly. As you are overcoming one, another one is coming. When they go to one tested and proven witch doctor, and the arrow projected against you still doesn't succeed, they don't stop. They will keep on traveling. They will keep on traveling to where there is a strong gababa somewhere. I decree over someone's life here that as many as are so determined to take you out in life, they'll not take them out. Whatever they have attended against you, the Lord reverse it, under makes it buffet. I guess there they are honest mafia kisser. They are evil wish backfired. Esther, it is written, "He that digs a pit shall fall into it." Every beat, every trap they have prepared for you, they will fall into it. They will fall into it. They will fall into it. In the name of Jesus. I speak to a faithful financial Steve Ward with a lot this morning, who has been consistently faithful unto the Lord in title. That we ever your world has been locked up today, the Almighty Himself releases that every financial blessing, fortune that they have sat upon, buried in the ocean, in witchcraft coppola, with cart votes and strongholds, today is your day of deliverance. Today is your day of deliverance. Your rod is released back to Europe. Your world is released back to you. As we attack on your finances, they'll not stop. See today, the name of Jesus. And whatever they have used you'll fat to acquire, the Lord rest stop back your virtue to you. And also every good thing that has been gained with your virtue, in the name of Jesus. When there is a contention, when somebody takes your land, and that land is a barren land, nothing is on it, and then the person boldly and arrogantly orders justly begins to build on it. The fact that he has now built a two-story, three-story, four-story building on it, that the higher it goes, all the more likely that the judges will now tell you to forget about it and handed. No, it doesn't work that way. Because your land is your land. Your land is your land. Till the God has given you alight that people have taken by physical or spiritual means and have even developed on it. The Lord gave you everything back in the name of Jesus. The Lord give you everything back in the name of Jesus.
[Applause] [Music]
The years you have lost shall be restored. You will catch up a robotic. You will catch up on Abbate. You will catch up and overtake whoever is using your beauty to shine. They lot of our children this new season in the name of Jesus. In the name of Jesus. No more slavery. No more oppression. Normal manipulation. Normal sorrow. No more tears. No more sadness. No more heaviness. The lot turn around. You're whipping on to join your money, not to dancing. The Lord reverse your captivity. Very soon, you will not need to testify. Your testimonies will speak for you. Whoever God has ordained for you that has left you, the Lord will make that come back. The Lord will make them come back. Every position, every office that you ought to be occupying now, that you have been denied of, they'll not put you now. Another phrase, put you now in that position in the name of Jesus. Lift up your right hand onto heaven. Lift up your right hand. Your right hand. The right hand. Whatever they have done, whatever they have done, whatever they have done, whatever they have done, whatever they have done to spoil the works of your hands, using this right hand as a point of contact, today the Lord grant you a complete divine deliverance. The lottery bus every damage in the name of Jesus. In the name of Jesus. The Lord will grant you a new beginning. A new season. A new dawn. Your trials would not be prolonged one day more. Every attempt to prolong your season of trial, they'll not frustrated in the name of Jesus. You will not stay in Egypt one year longer in the name of Jesus. May the grace of the vine promotion, the grace of divine transformation, the grace of the vine restoration that will always come in the process and at the end of trials, may that grace flow mightily on your behalf in the name of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.
And by the grace of God, and a common week, we would not look in a common week. We would look extensively at this seven major, seven major lessons. But every one of us must be consistently conscious of in our Johnny year or not. But I cannot show you always have it in mind. The every trial that the righteous will encounter are foreseen by God. It was never a surprise. God already knew what was in the plan. God told Abraham, "Is it this far you have fallen, bread?" Yes, time. This is what will happen. They will find themselves in the strange land. They will be tormented or pressed. And after that, I will bring them out. It had nothing to do with the scene of Israel. Abraham did not sin against God. So the right choice we face prior. Look at Joe Britany heart. God, God allowed Satan to take it away. It was taken away. In the trials, Joe was the wealthiest man in the entire continent, not them, not the country, the entire continent. You could see how sit and moved. He moved so fast, so devastatingly, killing everyone that he could kill. And he would have kill Joe if God had not stopped him. But I can tell you this, anything that God allows you to suffer in the process of your trials, they will be restored. They will be restored. Everything you lost to be given back. You would not die in shame. You will not die in sorrow. Better days are coming, and your season, your new season is starting now in the name of Jesus. So please be very much prepared for the second and final part of the message. We share this seven precise, concise lessons that will guide you in the process of life. And when you have that understanding, then you'll be able to oppressor and you're pretty confident in the name of our Lord Jesus. One more time, lift up good hands onto the Lord. Lord, we pray that you minister to every man, every woman, minister to every youth, minister to Lord, every leader, every head of whom, head of a family, head of an establishment, listening to the sound of this message. Father, we pray that whatever stage they are right now, you will speak clearly to them. We pray, Lord, that as many has a have already gone through these trials according to your divine order and pattern, let the restoration begin. Those who have passed the test, Lord, let their promotion begin. Let the a promotion happen in the name of Jesus. Let the empowerment take effect in the name of Jesus. Lord, we pray that whatever measure of transformation you have ordained to happen through the exposure to this trial, let that transformation be complete in the lives of your sons and daughters. Thank you, Heavenly Father. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Thank you, Holy Spirit. In Jesus mother pray.
[Applause]
