Dear ones, every name reveals identity. Every name reveals identity. When you call me by name, in a way you are saying: "I know who you are." When I say: "Pastor João Neto, I'm speaking, I know who you are." David, Eric, Melk. Because the name reveals identity. We know God by various names. Jehovah Jireh, which means the God of provision. Yahweh Tsidkenu, which means the God who justifies. Jehovah Rapha, God who heals, right? Jehovah Shalom, the God of peace. YHWH Nissi, the Lord is my. In short, various names were given to God. But there was a man, there was a man who asked God for God's name. When God revealed the plan He had in Moses' life, Moses asked God: "What is your name?" He wanted to know God's name. Put, please, Exodus, chapter 3, verse 14. Look how interesting. Moses only appears in history because God entered his history. We speak Moses' name today because God called him by name first. This means that our story only makes sense if God is involved in it. So, why do I speak of Moses today? Because God entered his history. Why do I speak Moses' name? Because God called him by name first. So, the real meaning is that our story only makes sense if God is directly involved in it. Now, look how interesting, oh. And God said to Moses: "Do you want to know my name?" Look what God said. Who is hot here today? I am hot. Is the air conditioning working there today? Yes, right? Here it's 8, right? When it's very hot, it's very cold. But let's go. Moses asked: "What is your name?" God said: "Get my ID, get my passport, my identity card, my RG, Pastor Lucas." And look what God said: "I am who I am." This phrase in Hebrew, which is the expression God used, is "Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh," and when you take the phrase in Portuguese, you realize it doesn't make sense. It's even a much-discussed phrase. Because, for example, God is here talking about His name. And pay attention, God is not a name. If you search on Google, there are various gods. Lord is also not a name. In Greek, Kyrios. So, neither God is a proper name, nor Lord is a proper name. And it is written that no one can take the Lord's name in vain. But this "Ehyeh," what name is this that God does not allow to be spoken in vain? Why does the Bible say, do not take the Lord's name in vain? This Lord is not a name. So this verse here, Pastor Lucas, is a verse that is always on the tables of scholars, theologians, because it is something God is revealing His name. The phrase "Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh," and I repeat again, name reveals identity. Vine, look how interesting, oh. In Portuguese. Look what God says. Do you want to know my name, my identity? I am who I am. First person singular. I am from the verb to be. It is what? Then God said: "I am who I am." Only this phrase in Portuguese doesn't add up, because it only adds up if you add an adjective. For example, look here for me so you can get it. Vine, pay attention. If someone looks at him and says: "Who are you?" Then he replies: "I am." Automatically you will question: "Are what? Are who?" So it doesn't make sense for him to say: "I am who I am." It doesn't add up. Now look what makes sense of this phrase. "I am a keyboardist." "I am a singer." The adjective "keyboardist singer" gave meaning to who he is. Who is understanding? For example, Matthew, if he says: "I am a guitarist." And the adjective gives meaning. "I am a drummer." The adjective gives meaning. In my case, I am handsome. It makes perfect sense. So it only makes sense if you add an adjective. Who is understanding? Now, why, Vine, if you, oh, Pastor Siior is here, if you are right before the altar, your salary will be increased. Why didn't God say "I am Jireh"? Was it faith in him? I said, it was a lack of faith. Why, pastor? No, you missed the opportunity to live a different 2026. But I will, I believe. He is an eagle, he is an eagle. Pay attention. God, God did not say. God never said: "I am Jireh." Who said his name is Jireh? Who lived provision? Who said he is Shalom? Who had peace in war? Who said he is Rapha? Who had an experience with healing or was healed? Got it, Vine? Got it. You can do a praise song here. Why, when God was going to say His name that reveals essence, why didn't God say: "I am Jireh or Rapha or Shalom or Tsidkenu, or Nissi"? This is because if God had said: "I am Jehovah Jireh," God would have been saying: "I am the God of provision." So God would be limiting Himself to a circumstance. Got it? And then God said: "Do you want to know my name? I will reveal it to you. Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh," which translated means "I am who I am." I cannot put an adjective for you to know me, because if I put an adjective, I will be limiting myself. And since God is an unlimited being, you missed the opportunity to have given a glory to God. No, I won't repeat. Since God is an unlimited being, God said: "Do you want to know who I am?" Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh. Which means? I am everything you need me to be. Vine, Vine. What is this, Pastor Lucas? God doesn't have everything I need. God, you got it, I'll repeat. God is not everything I need. God is everything I need. Look here at me. People say the Bible says that the word of God is renewed every morning. But where is that written? What is renewed every morning is not the word, it is the mercies. Pastor, why isn't the word renewed? Because the word doesn't get old. But why do I hear a sermon in church and then hear the same sermon and it seems like God spoke differently? The word hasn't been renewed? No. It was your need that changed. And the word of God is so powerful that God reveals, it manifests according to your, if I were in your place, I would take advantage of it. God manifests according to your need. For example, John, there are people here who, if I say, "Prepare yourself because you will be prosperous," the person will throw the chair up. I believe. Did you see Vine there? Because there are people here who need to change their lives financially. But other people here, if I say, "You will be prosperous," the person will say, "That doesn't touch me. I've already earned all the money in the world, that's not what I need." Others, if I say, "God will heal you," the person is here with a death diagnosis, of cancer, and says, "I need it." But for someone, healing doesn't make sense today. We have an audience of thousands of people here. Each one has a different need. And look how tremendous God is. He says: "I am all that you need me to be. I didn't come for blessings, Jesus, I don't need anything more than you can do. I just want you, God. I just want you, church, I just want you. And nothing else, nothing more, nothing from you. I just want you, nothing more. Nothing more, nothing beyond you." So God said to Moses, Moses, everything you need me to be, I will be. Be at peace, accept your calling. You will represent the I Am before Pharaoh and will tell Pharaoh that the people he is holding have an owner. Only Pharaoh is a typification of pride, power, sovereignty, egocentrism. Lavíia, Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. Eca, imagine Moses arriving before Pharaoh, we did that scene that day, and Pharaoh says, remembering that Moses grew up in the palace, who paid for Moses' college was Pharaoh. He arrives before Pharaoh and says: "Ah, Melk, who has the microphone there, if he doesn't get it, the service is over. It just came down. I love messages like this. Is it easy to talk to a powerful person without scheduling an appointment?" No. Let's contextualize. Today, one of the most powerful men in the world, Trump, President of the United States. Can you get in front of Trump today? And schedule a meeting with him? Impossible. Especially if you look Arab, he'll think you're a terrorist. Just kidding, just kidding, just kidding. But let's go. Why isn't it easy to schedule a meeting with a powerful man? Very important. The schedule is very complicated. Anyway. Speak louder. Very powerful. He has a very complicated schedule. Now a question. Why didn't Moses need to schedule a meeting to talk to Pharaoh? Because? No, I asked you, man. Because he was family. Huh? He was family. Got it? Uh-huh. God doesn't give access without a purpose. Which one? They didn't get it. This just came down. I'll repeat. God doesn't give access without a purpose. Every door God opens for you, God has a purpose. Anointing. Anointing. Who here has been to the Assembly, has visited the Assembly of God? Raise your hand. Look there. I'm home. I'm home. Wait, wait. I grew up, I grew up in this environment. Olavíia. And many people think that anointing is just for this, oh, for marching, spinning. It doesn't make sense for God to anoint a person for her to be like this. I'm not criticizing, okay? Because for some people life is so difficult that the only joy they have in life is jumping in church. Glory. And I was one of those people. I'm not using this expression pejoratively. Only I want you to understand is that every anointing, repeat with me, every anointing carries a purpose. Isaiah, the Spirit of the Lord Jehovah is upon me, and He has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind. So, every anointing God gives you has a purpose. God anointed you to make money more easily. There's a purpose. God anointed you to access inaccessible people. There's a purpose. God gave you a clinic to treat people who are hard to hear His word from. God is giving you these hearts. Purpose. Get this. Every time a man forgets the purpose of the anointing, he abuses it without realizing it. Every time a man forgets why he was anointed, he abuses the anointing without realizing it. And there are many people who have lost the why, the purpose, the design, and thus got lost, even without realizing it, it's unconscious. Look what I'm saying. God opened the door in Moses' childhood. I'm all goosebumps, for him to access the palace, because in the future God would want to use that access to take His people out of slavery. How many are understanding? Amen. The doors God opens for you, God is interested in using them. The access God gives you, God is interested in revealing Himself through them. So, never forget why God has done what He has done in your life. So let's go, Melk. Moses didn't need to schedule an appointment. He goes before Pharaoh and says: "Oh, the I Am sent me here because you are enslaving my people. He sent me to tell you to let this people go." But Pharaoh, arrogant, haughty, proud. This people will not leave here. I am the owner of this people and no one will take this people from here. Who are you, young man, to come here? Wanting to say that my slaves need freedom? God said: "Moses, leave it to me, I will show Pharaoh who he is fighting with. It's not you." God sent 10 plagues. The most extraordinary thing, Vine, is that each plague God sent has a purpose, a why. Nothing in the Bible is there for no reason. Why did this happen? Everything has a reason behind it. The first plague, Exodus chapter 7 verse 14. No need to put it, I'll just recite. What happened? The waters of the Nile River turned to blood. The Nile River was the main source of life and the main economic source. Agriculture, etc. And God made the waters of this famous river that cut through all of Egypt turn into blood. Now, why did God do this? Because the Egyptians worshipped a god in the Nile River, the god Hapi. The Nile River was a god to the Egyptians. And then God made the waters of the Nile River, David, turn into blood. God was showing Moses that the God the Egyptians were worshipping was actually a false God. The second plague, the frogs. The source of idolatry does not sustain life. The third plague, the lice. The fourth plague, the swarms of flies. The fifth, pestilence on livestock. The sixth, sores. The seventh, hail and fire. All this God was doing so that Pharaoh would let His people go. Pharaoh, I will not let them go, I will not let them go, I will not let them go. The eighth, the locusts, John. The ninth, the sun was darkened. Now, why did God make the sun darken in Egypt? The day turned into night, because in Egypt the sun was a deity. A god called Ra. They worshipped the sun in Egypt. Vine. Look how powerful God is. God said: "Moses, I will make the sun darken so that Pharaoh understands that the greatest God of Egypt will be humbled and the sun will no longer be able to illuminate. I will turn off the light," and no one will be able to turn it on by their own strength. All false illumination will fall before my presence. When the sun darkened, the god Ra was humbled. And then the tenth plague came, the death of the firstborn. Pharaoh couldn't take it anymore, because Pharaoh's firstborn was a kind of living god on earth. And then Pharaoh will make some proposals. And this is where I wanted to get. Put Exodus 8:25. Look at Pharaoh's strategies. I need you to listen to this message until the end. Melk, please read Exodus 8:25. Then Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron and said, "Go, sacrifice to your God in this land." Wait, wait. Read again. Read again. You need to go back there. 25. Then Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron and said, "Oh, oh, Pharaoh, king of Egypt, now wants a deal. Moses, Aaron, what's the proposal? Go, sacrifice to your God in this land." You can worship God, but you won't leave Egypt. Worship, but don't change your life. Worship, but you can't have a rupture. Worship, but still stay here. Your worship can even have LED lights, music, but it can't have repentance. This is Pharaoh's proposal. He accepts that you worship, but not that you live a transformation. The danger is not worshipping in Egypt, it's getting used to it and even calling it revival. I know it's very cool to attend an environment like this, where, you know, we experience all this. But what you need to understand is that the devil's proposal is for you to worship God, but not to live a rupture with the world. This cannot just be a moment for you. God wants the gospel, Christianity, worship to become a lifestyle for you. Amen. And I declare in Jesus' name, you who are having difficulty living this transformation, the God who called you, the God who chose you, He will help you detach yourself from everything that is hindering you from living your purpose. Do you receive this? Then, applaud the Lord. Then, now put, look at another proposal, Pastor Lucas. Put Exodus 10:11. It shall not be so. Now go, you men, and serve the Lord, for that is what you asked. And they drove them from Pharaoh's presence. Wait, wait, wait. Read one more time. It shall not be so. Now go, you men, and serve the Lord, for that is what you asked. And they drove them from Pharaoh's presence. Look what Pharaoh is saying. Moses, the men can go, the children and the women cannot. The devil even accepts that you become a believer, but he doesn't want your family to live what you are living. So, the devil's plan is to try to hold your family. The devil doesn't care if you are in church, as long as your marriage is not restored, your children are not reached, your home remains in captivity, and salvation does not reach your family. Hell even tolerates believers, but it despairs when one decides, my whole family will serve the Lord. Pay attention. God's target in reaching you is not just you. God is interested in saving your whole family. But the devil, Pharaoh, Vine, doesn't want your family to live God's purpose. The devil doesn't want your family to be restored, transformed. But God brought me here today with a prophetic word. Look at the person next to you and say: "No one will be left behind." If I were in your place, I would take advantage of it. I will repeat, no one will be left behind. I will say it one more time, no one will be left behind. God raised you up, shake the hand of the person next to you and say: God raised you up as a pillar in your house. Look here at me. Your house should have already fallen. But you know why it didn't fall? Because every time the devil comes to tear down your house, you are like this. There should have been a funeral there already. There are people getting this. But you know why there wasn't? Because every time the devil tries to hit your family, you are praying for them, seeking for them. And I came as a prophet today to tell you, there will be no funeral tears, there will be a thanksgiving service. May the blessing, Vine, may the blessing pour out for a thousand generations. Your family and your children and the children of your children. May the blessing pour out for your family and your children and your children. May the blessing pour out for your family and your children and the children of your children. May the blessing pour out from the presence of the three next to you, it is in you. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Did you ask someone to raise their hand? No. Vine, did you ask someone to raise their hand? I didn't ask anyone to raise their hand. And why did they raise their hands if no one asked? They understood that no one will be left behind. Huh? They understood that no one will be left behind. Say it again, Vine. They understood that no one will be left behind. Take the hand of the person next to you and say to that person: "The greater, the stronger, the louder the sound of glory to God that comes from your mouth, the greater the miracle in your family. No one will be left behind. And my house, we will serve the Lord. What a celebration, may the blessing pour out for a thousand generations, your family and your children and the children. May the blessing pour out for a thousand generations. Your family, your children, your children. I don't know what the direction of your house is, but I want you to turn towards your house now. Turn towards your house. We are in a spiritual war. Hallelujah! I don't know if you believe in the spiritual world, but it is more real than you imagine. The spiritual world is more real than the physical world. Hallelujah! Pharaoh is trying to hold your house. Pharaoh is trying to hold your family. But chains, Lavinha, chains are being broken. If it weren't for God's hand, there would have been an overdose of drugs. If it weren't for God's hand, cirrhosis would have already destroyed his liver. If it weren't for God's hand, bloodthirsty men would have already destroyed your brother. Dr. Rafael, while you pray now, God visits your family. God visits, Pastor Lucas, God visits Pastor Daniel now, Rebeca, Lev, Bela, it is God saying, no one will be left behind. João, your sister is being visited now. Your siblings, your parents, take advantage and pray for the family now. No one will be left behind. God will save them one by one. From the youngest to the oldest, from the biggest to the smallest, from the closest to the farthest. The God who saved you will save your house. Break chains, break chains, chains are breaking. I hear, I hear chains breaking in Jesus' name, I hear chains. I hear, I hear chains. The army, Sur Lavine. What happened? The army emerged. The army emerged from the chains. Chains break. Chains break. Chains break. Chains break. Chains break. Prepare now. Prepare now to make it bloom, to make it tremble. Put Exodus 10:26. This is for you to make the island tremble. Exodus 10:26. Read it for us, Lavinha. And also our livestock shall go with us. Not a hoof shall be left behind. Repeat, Lavinha. And also our livestock shall go with us. Not a hoof shall be left behind. It's Moses talking to Pharaoh: "I refuse to leave here without taking what is mine. Not a hoof. I'm all goosebumps. Not a hoof will be left in Egypt. I'm not leaving alone. I'll take the cattle, I'll take the sheep, I'll take my family. Not a hoof will be left. I refuse to live what God has alone. I'll take what's mine. I refuse to live what God has alone. I'll carry what's mine. Not a hoof will be left. The problem, Lavina, is not when the devil attacks us. The problem is when he starts making deals. You go, but don't go that far. You go, but don't take your family. And Moses stood firm. Lavinha, he stood up. He stood up. Hallelujah. Pastor, they understood that when God makes a promise, He does it completely. What the Lord has for me is not just for me to reach. God is not selfish. What He has, besides fulfilling it in my family, will change the entire history of a generation. Wow! Repeat, Lavinha. What God has in my life will not only change my family, but will change the history of an entire generation. Lavinha, let's declare it one more time. I don't have any children yet, but I believe my children will continue. I will still see my children preaching the word. I will still see my grandchildren preaching the word. One day this strength will end, but I will see my generation continuing what God started in me. Lavinha, let's declare it one more time that the blessing, that the blessing, that the blessing. Look at the person next to you and sing this. May the blessing pour out for generations, your family and your children and the children of your children. God is shielding your house. The devil messed with the wrong family. I will repeat. The devil messed with the wrong family. Your presence accompanies you from behind, from before, and in you, it is with you, it is for you, and day and night, going in and out, in your laughter, in your tears. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Complete liberation is when nothing is left behind. Lavinha, why doesn't God want anything left behind? Because if something is left in Egypt, you will always have a reason to go back there. If something is left in Egypt, you will always have a reason to go back there. And then God is saying, Moses, nothing will be left behind, not a hoof will be left, there are children crying here. Not a hoof will be left behind. Your resources will be unlocked. You will take everything you have achieved. Your family will not be left behind. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. People, oh Lavina, I feel like this service is at great risk of turning into an all-night vigil. I believe. Look at that. Look at that. Look here at me. When you were crazy in the world, did you see yourself living this that you live today in God? And why do you doubt today that God can save your family? Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Pastor Lucas Lavinia. Do you know what the Holy Spirit just reminded me of? After the sea opened and the Egyptians were floating in the sea, Miriam on the other side took her tambourine and sang that only the Lord is God. She did the right thing, but at the wrong time. Because taking the tambourine and singing that only the Lord is God, after the sea opened, you crossed, and the enemies are floating. It's easy. God is not looking for a generation of Miriam, because Miriam's generation depends on an open sea to sing. Got it, Mel. God is looking for true worshippers who have the courage to take the tambourine and sing that only the Lord is God, even in front of a closed sea. Who brought a tambourine? Who brought a tambourine? Who brought a tambourine? This is spiritual. I'll ask again. Who brought a tambourine? Shake the hand of the person next to you. There are people who got one there, shake the hand of the person next to you and say: "Now is the time we will see who has the courage to worship even with the sea closed. I don't depend on an open sea. Hallelujah. Glory to God. I worship. Come upon me, Lord. Come. Call Him. I worship you. I worship you, Father. I worship you. I worship you. Come, come, come. Come upon me. Lord, Lord, Jesus, Lord, there is something different here today. If you understand that God is releasing a word of destiny, friends hugging, don't leave before the blessing is released. Glory. Hallelujah. Put Exodus 13:17. People, you can sit down, read it for us, Lavinha. And it happened that when Pharaoh let the people go, God did not lead them by the way. Wait, wait. After everything I said, rejected proposals. Agreements. Moses said: "Not a hoof will be left, Pharaoh." After God sent the 10 plagues, after 430 years, Tadeu, that the people were in Egypt, the long-awaited day arrived. Read it one more time, Elaia. And it happened that when Pharaoh let the people go, God did not lead them by the way of the land of the Philistines. Look at the detail that was closer. Read this again. That was closer. Pay attention. There was a closer path for the people to reach the promised land. It is written here that God could have exterminated the Philistines for the people to reach Canaan faster. Lavinia, now read verse 18. Pay attention to what is written. But God made the people go around by the way of the desert of the Red Sea. Wait, wait. The devil made the people go around. God made the people go around. By what path? By the way of the desert of the Red Sea. Look, there are deserts that God puts you in. There was a closer path. Geographically, in approximately 40 days, the people would leave Egypt and enter Canaan if they walked in a straight line. But God made the people go around by the way of the desert for 40 years. Why did God do this? Pay attention. Because before God takes you to the promised land, God needs to heal your slave mind. God is not concerned with when you will arrive, but how you will be when you arrive. No, I'll repeat. I think some people didn't get it. I'm all goosebumps, John. The greatest blessing of the gospel is not what I conquered after I knew Christ, but who I became along the way. People confuse spirituality with acquisition. Look, I'm driving a Porsche. Look how God is blessing me. I'm driving a Ferrari. Look how God is blessing me. I have a yacht. Look how God is blessing me. I live by the sea. I live in Jurerê. I live in the best condominium, look how God is blessing me. And then they link God's blessing with visible things. And then it seems that those who do not live this peak built by men are not blessed. But I came today to tell you that the greatest achievement, the greatest blessing a person can have upon knowing Jesus is not what they have achieved from then on, but who they have become. God is more interested in who you will become than in what you will achieve. How many are understanding what I am saying? Lavinia, this is not on Google. I'm all goosebumps. Melk, do you know why God made the people go around for 40 years in the desert? So that Egypt would leave the people. You are very intelligent. The people had left Egypt, but Egypt had not left the people. There are people, John, who are no longer in Egypt, but Egypt is still inside them. And then God puts you in the desert. God is pedagogical. Nothing happens in vain. Maybe you are, [laughter] pastor, I don't understand anything. God is pedagogical. God prefers to see you losing than to see you lost. And sometimes, for God not to lose you, He will allow you to lose. It's pedagogical. For 40 years the people went around the desert path. Now, look how interesting, John. They arrive before a sea. I believe you've already heard Lavinia. When you are facing the sea, when you are facing the sea and cannot cross, call this man with faith, he opened the sea. Perhaps you grew up hearing these songs and hearing stories that God opened the sea. And this is the episode I've just reached. The people are before a closed sea, John. Pharaoh with his chariots, horses, and horsemen coming behind. Put, please, Exodus, chapter 14, verse 13. Read it for us, Lavinha. Moses, however, said to the people, "Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring." Now let's see why Moses is encouraging the people. Put verse 12, or rather, verse 11. Look at this, Lavinha. And they said to Moses, "Were there no graves in Egypt that you took us to die in the desert? Why did you do this to us, bringing us out of Egypt? Look what the people are saying. Oh Moses, it was better for us to be in Egypt. There, besides having graves, which there aren't here in the desert, there were even cucumbers and onions. But one detail, the bread from heaven was already falling every day. Hallelujah. They didn't get it, John. Glory to God. The people complained because they missed the onions from Egypt. Meanwhile, every day God sent bread from heaven. Wait. When your gaze is fixed on the past or on lack, even slavery seems more attractive than dependence on God. And then you start remembering. Put, please, Isaiah 43:18. Get this. Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of the past. Look what God says. Behold, I will do a new thing. You can applaud Him now. I have reached the peak I wanted to reach. Exodus 14:15. Get this. This is a key that can change your life forever. I promise that in 5 minutes I will finish. Then the Lord said to Moses, "Why do you cry out to me?" Huh? Then the Lord said to Moses, "Why do you cry out to me? Tell the Israelites to move on." Move on. Do you know what God is saying, Lavíia? Moses, the best prayer you can offer is not made with words, but with actions. Did someone get it? Your attitudes speak so loudly before God and life that sometimes even your screams are silenced. I will translate what I am preaching. Why do you cry out to me, Moses? Tell the people to move on. Because the best prayer, the most efficient prayer you can offer is not by speaking, it is by acting, by behaving. I will translate. The Bible says: "Pray without ceasing." And there are people, I grew up in the Assembly of God, I love prayer. We are even having a gratitude campaign here, praying every day, thanking God for what we have experienced and already understanding that something extraordinary awaits us in 2026. Listen to this. There are people who pray for 10 hours a day. Is there a problem with that? No. But look here at me. Look here at me. 10 hours praying, Lord, this, that, this, that. But when they get up, in one minute, they invalidate all the prayer, because they behaved in one minute in a way that invalidated 10 hours of prayer. And there are people who don't spend 10 hours on their knees, no. There are people who sometimes just get up and say: "Lord, thank you for this day. Come with me, I love you." But every action is a declaration of faith in the spiritual world. Lavinia, now look at this. God said to Moses, take the staff in your hand and stretch it out. Read, please, Exodus 14:21, and we will finish. Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the Lord drove the sea back by a strong east wind all that night. By a strong east wind. East. And the wind didn't blow just once. All night. The wind blew all night. Because some miracles don't happen instantly. Ah, they didn't get it. They didn't get it. Wonderful. What wind blew? What was it? This is a pearl, people. What wind blew? East. Do you know where this wind came from? From the desert. Translating. Wait, wait. Translating, John. This is not on Google. The east wind did not come from Egypt, it came from the desert. Wait. In other words, the sea did not open from front to back. They did not see the sea opening. You got it. They did not see the sea opening. Huh? They did not see the sea opening. Got it. If it were from here to there, they would see it. But from there to here, how? You are very intelligent. Say it again. Say it. If it were from here to there, starting from here to there, they would see it. But from there to here, how does it come? Some people have been coming to the abundant second all year, but they are not seeing anything. Some people are walking with God and not getting immediate results. I go to church. Who did God send to extend the answer? Reformulate the question. Who told Moses to extend the staff? God. Is Moses obeying what God said? Yes. There are times when we obey what God says and we see nothing. And there are people here, John, who have been obeying God's word for years, doing everything right, attending church, and not getting immediate results. But God brought me here today to speak to you. It's not because you're not seeing that nothing is happening. Shake the hand of at least two people and say: "It's happening without you seeing it. He who calms the wind, He who calms the sea, who takes away the strength of the lion of Judah. The God who knocks down walls is working more. It is the same one who cries out, do not fear, I am with you. God already has a path opened through the waters. But many sources in the midst of the desert. There will be clouds that bring showers of hail. Vime, vi, vi. God goes ahead. God goes ahead. God, God. God goes ahead, opening paths, breaking things, removing obstacles to fight with you. He opens doors for no one. He works for those He trusts. He walks with you day or night. And your hands, your blessing has arrived. Start singing with much praise. With much praise, with much praise, with much praise. Enough, enough. Just wait for what God will do. And believe that He is already in favor. Look when He extends His hands, when He extends His hands, not even Pharaoh resists. It's time to win, John. Sometimes we don't see anything, everything is silent. In heaven. We need to understand what God is saying, even in silence, without you seeing it. When He is silent, it is because it is enough to just wait for what God will do. So? When He extends His hands, when He extends His hands. Lavine, let's hear the army of God singing. Sing. Eita, Pastor Mel, why do you cry out to me? Tell my children to move on. Your praise is your God's heaven. God goes ahead opening the way. Breaking chains, removing thorns. He sends angels to fight with you. He opens doors for no one else to close. He works, He works for those who trust in Him. He walks with you. Your hands, your blessing has arrived. Start singing with much praise, with much praise, with much praise, with much praise. If it's for Him, it can be stronger. If you have glory to God, mix it. Glory to God with applause. If you have hallelujah, say hallelujah. God is working without you seeing it. Lavinia, I don't know if my memory is good, but let's see now. Isaiah 64:4, put it for us. For since the beginning of the world, men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, nor seen by the eye, O God, besides you, who does what? Hallelujah. God is working. God is working. Prophesy this to five people and we're done. God is working, Mateusão. God is working, Vini. God is working. Your future will be extraordinary. Fagá, God is working. Pastor Lucas, God is working. The 22 million who signed the contract, God is already touching hearts. God is working. Hallelujah. Take your seat for a minute. I don't even feel like ending the service. How many felt God's presence? Dear ones, we have already started a gratitude campaign from day one, which is today until the 12th. How many months are in a year? 12. So, this gratitude campaign is a campaign for you to thank God for everything He has done in 2025 and to already thank Him, as I ministered today, to play the tambourine before the sea opens, believing that He will still do incredible things in 2026. Pastor, I didn't get the envelope for this campaign. I haven't gotten it yet. Give me one. All of you who haven't gotten one, give me one. You will write a letter. I would like everyone, the whole church, to get one. That's why I said no one should leave. The whole church. You will write a letter to God with the reasons you have to be thankful. This "thank you, God, for everything" doesn't define anything. So you will write, thank you because in January I grew in this area, I achieved this, I closed a deal in month X. You will, you will write, I found someone in month X, I don't know, I don't know what blessing you experienced. So you will write it down, keep it with great care, okay? Because inside the envelope there is the paper you will use to thank, you will, this is even good, because the Bible says: "I want to bring to memory what can give me hope." So, it is a cognitive way for you to train your memory, exercise it, and activate the recollections of the Lord's deeds. So, you will put here thanking God, and on the 12th, what day? The 12th we will place it on the altar. Pastor, I believe it will be incredible what I will experience. You will put a seed of gratitude and also a seed that points to what you believe you will experience in 2026. On the 12th we will place it on the altar and present this letter of gratitude to God for what He has already done and for what He will still do. Dear ones, leaving there at Get Story, you can acquire an incredible devotional from our Pastor Siior, Conquering Every Day. And once again, remember, assist this work. You saw that the work we are doing is extraordinary. I learned that no one does anything great alone. If you are doing something alone, that is the biggest sign that what you are doing is not great. So we understand that collectivity, teamwork makes all the difference. So we have many commitments that we need to honor to continue impacting lives. So, make your order through iFood at Getcof. You will help us maintain all these projects that impact lives, transform lives, restore lives. So, help us. I love you all. How many are being blessed here on Mondays? Amen. Let me make a request to you. Next Monday, do you believe in prophetic decrees? Amen. Next Monday, invite at least two friends who you have never brought, because I believe we will experience one of the best abundant Mondays of our lives. May the Lord bless you and keep you. One detail, whoever is here for the first time, when the service ends now, when the service ends, come to the front, because you will get to know a little bit of our history in 3 minutes. So, you who are here for the first time, come to the first row. May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you. May your week be extraordinary in the presence of God. God bless you. The celebration is finished.
