ways you can get ready will be on the back screen so while you get ready Kass is going to encourage us bus hey how are you 2 Corinthians 9:6 it's gonna come up behind me that says this remember this whoever so sparingly will also reap sparingly but whoever saw general II will also reap generously each of you should give what you have decided in your heart not reluctantly or under compulsion because God loves a cheerful Giver you know I wanted to tell you tonight Church what your generosity is capable of because I believe that we are a generous Church in every week you give generously 14 years ago in Melbourne there was a girl and she was in a mess heavily addicted to drugs and the end of her life was not panning out how she thought that it would hell i've happened to collide with a girl who said to her I'm going to Hillsong conference this week you should come with me and not knowing what she was getting herself into she said yes she ordered all of the drugs that she needed packed a suitcase and found herself driving to Sydney on the first night of conference she was standing in the middle of the Acer arena in a crazy environment the worship began and Pastor Brian got up on the stage and he began to prophesy and as he prophesied God gave him insight into her situation and he began to read her mail is how she puts it and she said she remembers standing there and as we began to worship she felt God heal her from her addiction she felt him begin to deliver her and set her path straight again and in that moment she heard him tell her to move to the Sunshine Coast to live fast-forward 14 years from that moment that girl is now a worship pastor serving God married on the Sunshine Coast and her life looks nothing like what it looked like 14 years ago truth is this is good soil for us to invest into this is an amazing place to give and as we give tonight I want to challenge you to believe God for it to yield a harvest 14 years from now at Hillsong conference in two weeks time or our young and free conference or maybe even tonight as people make decisions to accept Jesus Christ so why don't you take your giving in your hand and let me pray for you father God we thank you that we get to sow into your kingdom that you are capable of turning people's lives around that you are capable of multiplying the seed that we sow and so tonight bless your people give them a conviction God to build your kingdom alongside you and may their homes be bless their families be blessed and their futures be bright in Jesus name and everybody said amen so why don't you watch your screens their hosts service for everything that is coming up in the life of Hillsong Church [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] just as I brought you out of the mists the sin the bondage the oppression personally I'll bring you in to every promise I put on your heart [Music] funny man Jan and Hillsong kids presents songs of some silliness we're right atop each song is equal parts

children from every location unify with kids from across the globe and they catch a glimpse of the bigness and wonder of what they're apart of every single year young people encountered Jesus for themselves in a way that sets them up for life so I want to encourage you as parents to position your families at Hillsong conference 2019 [Music] [Music] I like that favorite lyrics the most depth of virtually any lyrics we have a nacho jewel Allah so good when you interpret the Hebrew anyway it's all happening Hillsong conference two weeks now I know the whole church is gonna lean in young and free Hillsong kids every Elemental conference of course the conference itself this be prayed up let's pray for the conference and let's do everything we can to get young people and kids and everyone we can into the conference and no matter where you are in Australia or I hope you guys are doing everything you can to be involved Hillsong conference as well it really is life-changing really is life-changing and transformative in so many different ways including transformative for churches as well so praise God for that so if you're from our church you know that at this time of the year every year we have a very special offering which other leaders are sacred offering sacrificial it really does mean that as people are faithful and are sacrificial and people give in an incredible way that it releases our church into so much more vision so much more endeavor and so we're right now in that season and so last week was our big week big week of receiving the heart for the house giving but of course there's some people also who haven't yet had that opportunity to give maybe it was the way last week or perhaps God spoken to you since last week and so we're gonna give you a chest we look at a very shortened version of a vision video it just gives you a glimpse into what we are wanting to do as a church so hi to our church all around the country and and darling always glad we get to link also on Sunday Night Live on the Hillsong Channel come on let's enjoy this together [Music] [Music] [Applause] back in the day we were laboring so hard to build for this one house and create facility for this vision of this one house and then over three four decades now it's become one house many rooms and that's because the family because the kingdom because of the sacrificial devotion of our people understanding the power of vacant and Haman as well draw have also spread which is exactly what happened and book of Acts but the early church but the growth in the New Testament church wasn't just expanding or exactly the fire and the people and I think around the idea of revival is in the air that's actually the key body here we have to stay fresh fun fresh then I look at the vision through fresh eyes because it's not a matter of us changing vision to keep it exciting as a matter of us continuing to put in all the effort and hard work and the sacrifice that it takes to see the kingdom go forward and I think we are fired to be more involved in fired to sacrifice to give to live beyond ourselves by what clustering on the inside rather than what we're looking at on the outside [Music] Annelise was on at 33 weeks premature within a few months Annalise was actually diagnosed with cerebral palsy which affects her speech and her mobility or ability to walk at my previous church we thought that Annalise would be able just to come along and connect in like all of the other kids but the reality was that's not what we found someone introduced us to treasure chest I think it's actually amazing that as a church we can actually create a facility for families in the community who are really challenged with solis additional needs the thing that is challenging for us as a church is to realize that this kind of ministry really does hinge off having permanent facilities and it's believed that we can actually see this exemplified across all of our locations around the country it does just place value upon us as a family and as individuals and we really don't get that a lot so it's really amazing New South Wales has grown to 14 locations now with the 15th launching in the current area of Sydney see our ultimate goal that every one of those locations would have their own permanent facility a place to call home and as you can imagine that opens up a world of possibilities when it comes to reaching people passed upon and Bobbie being with us as we're driving through the city is looking down going hey can you imagine a building for City campus down there there's more lost broken hurting people out there in need and encounter with Jesus Christ and that's why we need a church downtown to help reach those people so we could serve love and give and hope to see more people get to know Jesus this isn't a crowd that comes together on a weekend this is a community this is a family Bali's amazing will alive to play young people overflows bright out up to the cafe every single week and we desperately need to do something else so we're hoping that we can launched a new location in Denpasar which is the population capital of volumen the Hillsong journey in Queensland and Northern Territory started 10 years ago we've gone from one campus to 10 campuses in 10 years which isn't too shabby if we place a campus here and one more to the north of Brisbane we'll actually be able to put a Hillsong Church service within 30 35 minute drive of the whole southeast corner of Queensland which is three and a half million people one of the focuses that I've come into city care with is to make sure that we actually have strategic programs running in all our locations across Australia what we've been doing over the last year is really strategically targeting the schools that we want to be part of and we're picking vulnerable schools located next to every single one of our campuses to make sure that we're actually having an impact in your local community growing up I never really knew anything about my dad I really left a massive gap in my life I would start you know fighting people just cuz I'll nod every time they mentioned something about family it just got to a point of if I got suspended again the schools gonna expel me things changed for me when I met sunglass Hui that's what it was a massive turning point for me was to actually have people who understood I was going to a process of finding myself so what I do now are work for install new services I do a bit of mentoring in high schools now I also run shine and strength programs I feel like now which city care what we're doing in the schools I feel that we can actually really make a massive difference [Music] marinum say that I'm a dummy have no support DT will occasionally get automatically supportive go vertically attack a turtle egg didn't break late if you do Sarah Baartman korrasami America you up Nicole support discipline skd omnivorous idea our main focus our children but in order to keep a child in school get a child to school and keep the child at school we need to work with the family we find out what are the barriers and bring solutions that will remove those barriers yes in every school meals call me data possible tonight I doubt that they are okay data of human says calm assertive in theater nominally Kathryn Kuhlman interpreter practical Derrida the rulli to him but referring it to argue for Amina the putting in attack every me happy met associates are partly kaput Bernie after the house people could never overestimate just how critical it is and has been for a vision of our church facilities buyers have moved our vision forward in Australia in able to reach more people and of course it's released us into more reach globally in multifaceted ways from campuses to social justice but it really has been the essence it's been the starting point for everything would be nobody do it's like when the woman came and she broke all that she had the caustic perfume and says she has done a beautiful thing for me she has done a significant thing for me and I think when we see our heart for the house out offering to the Lord in those terms we're bringing that unto the Lord and we're helping to facilitate his heart for Humanity and that will always be a holy moment it never comes second by putting God first I don't believe you do I don't believe you do ever comes second when you put God first in your life so well last time for any visitors here's just a specific weekend last weekend this weekend when we're focusing on this extra giving in our church a half of the house offering and you wait for the miracle that this will become so praise God that we all get a chance to be part of that miracle and so again if you haven't already you can pick up these envelopes that are on your seat and just a very quick moment we're gonna receive this giving the special giving and you'll see in the back again the way people love to give more and more people are using the Hillsong app apparently is a very simple way to give and if you want tax deductibility on this offering you can normally tithe and offerings are not tax deductible but this giving is to our hosts on foundation so it's tax deductible or you just need to tick that you want that receipt on your on your envelope and really if you don't need to worry about the tax deductibility that helps us as well so if you're giving through a family trust or whatever because it means some of the things that we're doing like supporting Hillsong Israel that's not something that we can do through the foundation and so that's why it's gonna be awesome gonna give you a moment we're gonna pray then we're gonna get right on with our service amen everybody ready and thank God for you and if you've been very sacrificial I really pray right now that the presence of God will be a portion and this will be a joyful moment for you so Lord we just thankful we're thankful we get to live our lives in a rare in an extraordinary way that we can be part of your kingdom we can make a difference and the Lord together we're a great collective force and lord I pray as people honor you and as they put you first in this giving and I just really believe in Jesus name your word is working in our lives we declare it we believe it father I speak in faith it is coming back pressed down shaken together running out all over Lord we believe that revival is in the air and it will impact every part of our world and every part of our lives so Lord in Jesus name as people give to this offering I just believe father we give in faith and we give with an expectation that Lord you are God of our lives so I thank you for it I think you've been such a rare extraordinary Church in Jesus name Amen amen amen so everywhere we are come on let's pass those containers along and receive that offering and just in case you're wondering up then Queensland I did see you Steve Dickson and Andy Heuser in your strange-looking maroon jerseys I just chose to ignore you because I thought that it was a very combative thing to do try and come on the screen and all of that burgundy purpley sort of pinky maroon e-type color I mean who wears a color like that come up here for a minute would you man just come on up here you're not coming up here no no yeah no you're

love the Queenslanders gotta love the Queenslanders incredible I hope you brought a hanky tonight you're gonna need fantastic all right all right you guys can be seated thanks so much for your help I'm excited about tonight we got a speaker who's a good friend of mine he and his wife is Leo and Susannah bigger they are from the Swiss Alps yodeling yodeling territory actually from Zurich live in Zurich have an amazing Church called ICF international Christian Fellowship it's an enigma several thousand people in a part of Europe where that is not the normal so praise God for it and they also have churches and all sorts of other countries and cities around Europe and other parts of the world and so doing an amazing work I love hanging around Lea who's all sorts of fun and so I reckon we should stand across the entire church and give Leo bigger a huge welcome to him some change amen I should have said Bishop Bishop bigger [Music] so thank you so much for all the sweets people I can yodel so thank you so much pastor Bryan and pastor Bobby for having me it's a big privilege actually you are such a big role model for me from our family for us as a church because we copy almost everything from Hillsong you know that have you ever heard about copyright that means we copy everything right and the people in Bali that have the rights to copy that's why thank you so much and then you said in the in the video clip it's very important to stay fresh and admire that because after doing church for so many years you still fresh you on fire for Christ and this is for me the biggest thing made cheese the center of your church and sq passes the biggest shot of applause come on [Applause] so please take a seat so I'm really thrilled to be here in the house of God and my topic is the favor of God and I believe the favor of God is something very unique can you say to your neighbor neighbor neighbor the favor of God is upon you now turn around on the left hand side right hand side backwards frontwards wow I want to start with my own story and I hope you are able to understand my Swiss English if not it's not my fault because I understand myself or me I wanna start with a picture when I was super young it's about 15 years ago is a picture I was brought up come on this is a dream right I was brought up Catholic and as a small child I said god I would love to serve you I love the house I love the church God hear em use me for your kingdom but here's the thing I had a dream in my life and I think you have also a dream in your life your longing calling something you like to say God I want to serve you but from a dream to a destiny is always a journey around 15 years ago I was reading already I see Zurich a guy from Brazil he sneaked into our office and said oh my gosh I see over your face flex from around the world and one day you will preach around the globe and the your destiny is you are a church planter I said you funny Brazil guy two challenges first of all I have never planted the church and secondly my English is zero and the dream and the destiny it's not the same like this rope this rope is way too big right it looks very silly right the question is it's a rope too big or I am too small what do you think is the Rope too big or I am too small the favor of God is all this upon your journey is the favor of God God is leading you guiding you and the fear of God God is not a taking away let's start with the story of Joseph that's why I have this amazing road on Joseph in the Old Testament he had a dream but God has a destiny in his mind from a dream to a destiny is always a journey is always a journey and a dead journey you will grow into the capacity of God or nighti between Joseph's dream and a destiny 13 years passed by he entered 10 different tests I won't have to be honest when I hear the word test I start to shake because it reminds me about school is there anyone in this room you love school you see nobody I know I know nobody you know the word test reminds me as PowerSchool we had a French teacher have you ever heard French people speaking English like his hello my name is Joe doll I'm very I'm very good I'm very strong and my teacher said - Mogo we will do a force test go home and learn as much as possible and I said to her stop speaking because I don't like school and I don't like a test and now can you imagine God says I'm testing you oh really you're like a teacher but you have to understand the word test in the Bible has a broader meaning the best explanations actually about Michelangelo one day my conscience stood in front of that marble one piece of marble and out of the more very creative world famous said two of David so k-prime - because the most people they cannot handle that size you know fro for all the people you understand you understand Annam and they asked Michelangelo how did you do that around the world you will able to create the world famous David and his answer is quite significant he said I chipped everything away from that marble that didn't belong to David and that's the meaning of a test if you going to a test god is chipping god is chipping God is chipping things away God is chipping God is chipping God is chipping things away that's why when you face your test in your life be happy be clappy be positive because god is something to do in your life let's tease god for that a hand come on come on so let's start with the story of Joseph [Applause] I am Joseph the father father gave Joseph a very unique rope but only chose off' if you are Joseph you say hallelujah praise the Lord but if you're not Joseph you will say envy and jealousy straight in the family Joseph was the favorite son of the father and he was at home while his brother were working so hard in the field and one day Joseph had a dream it's nothing wrong to have a dream but use your brain if you already the favorite son then don't provoke you brothers and keep your things like Mary in your heart let's check it out what you also said Joseph said we were out in the field miracle number one Joseph was in the field tying up bundles of green suddenly oh my gosh suddenly Oh hallelujah god I love the prophetic roots suddenly I feel it in my row whoo I feel it in my soul I am I am Joseph how cool Muftis been or whatever saying wish Oh flipping flip oh and you bundles that means you are gather around me I feel it in my Joseph oh my gosh you all bow before me you understand you you you sense a little bit how arrogant Joseph was in a battle says God resists the proud people right and there was any reason for God to chip the proudness out of Joseph he was so super proud of course the favor of God was upon him but something was in his heart was not good enough you know what happens they're brothers they got so mad and angry and a took away the rope and kicked him into a pit and this was the first test in the life of Joseph shockula he was in the pit and whenever you face a pit test I'm still here but I'm in the pit right now check this out when Joseph was in the pit there is no way out anymore and in the pit the pit test is so hard actually you have the idea I will be never happy again and I will never healthy be again and there's no promotion and I will never find a girlfriend a boyfriend you'll never have another baby it's all done there's no way out anymore and the pit test is really a hard test because who are you then nobody is around just you and God there's no way out anymore here's a word is like in your brain never ever the devil will say to you never ever there's never ever a promotion does never be a health again your life is over you mastered it's your fault you are so stupid then I just think about the camel one day a camel was so thirsty and the camera wants to drink water and all the fortunate the camera fell into the well and a camera cried for help the people say oh my gosh we can't hear a camel is shouting and screaming for help and people pass by and say oh we cannot help the camel and one guy said let's bury the camel with sand he took the first shovel of sand and the camera thought oh oh my gosh very success and the camel shaked it off the next shot us and shake it off the next shovel sand shake it off the next shovel shake it off the next shovel shake it off next shovel shake it off and all of a sudden the camel was out and said and was out please understand when you facing a pit situation the devil gives you the idea your life is over we'll be never healthy never strong never happy never blessed the favor of God it's gone forever shake it off shake it off shake it off shake it off shake it off shake it off shake it off shake it off you know why the brothers they believed that anointing the favor of God in the life of Joseph is in that robe their fault if we steal Joseph the position the favor everything his life is over the devil gives you all this the idea if a person steals you chop maybe a girlfriend that's not friendly you're dark don't do that catch yes but not the dog your life is over listen to me you promotion your blessing your favor is never in a position it's in a person and that person's Christ he's in you come on that's why I brought a quote for you guys and I think that quote I found it by Christine King but she copied a quote from me because Christ lives in me trials cannot stop me people cannot break me money cannot buy me even not a Swiss guy haters cannot silence me and demons cannot defeat me defeat me can we say this together here and also into all the locations let's say this together in very loud from the bottom of our hearts one two three because Christ lives in me trials cannot stop me people cannot break me money cannot buy me haters cannot silence me and demons cannot defeat me a man come on on a real - babbles scripts so that he was prospered the Lord was with him the Lord gave success in everything he did Wow he found the favor the next slide the Lord blessed the household of the Egyptian because because because of Joseph the blessing of the Lord was on everything he actually did you know how you come out from a pit it's very simple it's always a miracle God is a God of science and miracles and Joseph came out because some people found Joseph oh my gosh let's sell Joseph to the Potiphar's house and the next robe was gray the color gray stands for I am a slave and the second test was actually the Palast test Joseph came to the Potiphar's house into an amazing palace here is the story in the palace was mr. and mrs. Potiphar here is a picture of mrs. Potiphar on the left hand side on the right hand side Joseph the Bible says Joseph was a very good-looking man I can relate if that bothers now you have to understand all of a sudden she the married woman saw Joseph and she said you are so beautiful to me my heart's starts to mad so strong my heart starts to a Chaucer said what a flippin world is going on stop singing I'm Joseph and you have to understand a long you churning along your journey there are always temptations do you know when a devil tempts you always when you're far away when you feel weak when you are desperate you think I'm the servant I'm longing for something the devil has a strategy he waits until you are weak and that was the moment when Joseph was far away and one night stand' means it's quick and one night that's why you know and Joseph said I don't get it you are married go home and sing you or Mark beautiful to your husband but not to me and she realized Oh Joseph is a small kite and she put off the first layer Rett red leaves kiss me Oh Joseph the devil will not give up Joe said I don't kept I don't like to rev lip then she took rose let's do the bachelor and Joe said I never heard about the bachelor when I was in the pit there was the bachelor the devil doesn't give up right and then she undressed her question question is is she ugly no temptation a temptation it's always tempting otherwise it will be another temptation oh she's so ugly no problem God the devil dear friend you have to understand the strategy of the devil is always along your journey there is the favor of God success you prospering everything eyes upon you the devil comes to steal to rob and destroy what the favor the blessing the success the prosperity everything and it's a word for those people maybe you failed that doesn't mean your failure maybe you messed doesn't mean you are whatever or you did dancing doesn't mean you stupid then just get up receive the forgiveness and do it better Joseph said mrs. Potiphar I cannot do it because in my heart in my spirit is he' I'm a Hebrew guy I belong to God and the Word of God and the laws of God are my foundation and the body is clear I am not born for an affair I born for a clean and righteous heart and I wanna bake God's voice you know God has loved languages as well you know that and one of the love language of God is obedience is the love language of God just be obedience in your personal life when Joseph said no she grabbed to row for the second time rope was taken away in the life of chooses and she said her Joseph he wants to boom shocka lon and I said no boom shocka la but he said boom boom boom Shakalaka said no shockula chuckle ha so joseph came into prison for 13 years Joseph was in the prison and I said to God that's not fair he's obedient and now it comes to the prison but there is a part in the life of Joseph and God is chipping certain things away from Joseph but that stone seems to be so hard for God to chip it away Joseph had a gift he could understand every dream and wanted two guys in the prison they had a dream at Joseph I know what is a dream all about and after cool explain the dreams Joseph said a very funny thing here is the Bible verse please remember me to me a favour when things go well for you mention me to Pharaoh so that he might let me out of this place for I was kidnapped from my homeland the land of the Hebrews and now I am here in prison pub I did nothing that deserve it check out these lyrics me myself and I I myself in me in me myself and I and I myself in me in me myself and I and I myself in me and me myself and I and I myself in me and me myself and I and I myself in me and me myself and I and I myself in me Annie myself and I my house my car wife my kids my dog my cats no my bird you understand there's so much me myself and I in the life of Joseph Joseph is already occupied there is no space for God because me myself and I already inclusive where is God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit you have to understand the day we receive Jesus Christ we made a declaration are not living longer for myself my old me myself and I I am buried are leading for you kingdom come you will surely done you my shepherd you leading me you guiding me you will shall be done it's not about me myself and I and I myself and me me myself and I and I myself of me and me myself and I 13 years God try to chip to me myself and I out of choices 13 years later Pharaoh had a dream and check out the words of Joseph then Joseph said to Pharaoh God has revealed to Ferran what he is about to do God has showed Ferran what he is about to Easter me myself an eye anymore Joseph understood my life is a vessel I serve God with all my gifts with all my abilities with everything I have and other promote God in my life when chores have understood that the promotion took place overnight he came out from prison overnight he became number two in Egypt the promotion of God is always out of the blue but along his journey God was preparing him for that robe question what happens if the rope I grew into that capacity after 13 years of cheeping cheeping cheeping cheeping cheeping cheeping cheeping cheeping cheeping cheeping cheeping you also filled out the destiny and here is one specific word in the Bible about their love to read it because this word has an amazing meaning the Lord made it to prosper the word prosper when I hear as a Swiss Guard word prosper I think it's money it's more cheese and more chocolate and more funky you know but the word prosper has in the Greek an amazing meaning that means to help a long to wrote that means dear friends every test becomes your testimony Joseph grew from test to test from glory to glory from anointing 2:9 ting in a new level but the meaning in Hebrew is even more crazy means to push forward and you will make along your journey progress Wow I would love to close is my own story I said I told you in the beginning 15 years ago a guy from Brazil the son Berland told me that I will preach one day around the globe and for me I never got any invitation not even my friends invited me have to pay it and five years ago I got my very first invitation to preach in Dallas America's e3 conference for eight young and is a picture of the stage and you have to understand me it was my very first message in English five years ago if you say oh my English is amazing now five years ago level here in the front row while I was preaching Steven Furtick oh la la carlins to dismiss ed young and I flew in as a Swiss guy my very first message in English and an amazing front row you see past alia what's the problem you see in this picture a small detail you can see what was happening under my arms [Applause] it's like I was sweating like a pig like a river you know rivers I say hallelujah praise Allah Oh No hallelujah praise the Lord you have to understand me why I'm sweating like a pig and it is a message that's not normal that's not normal there is still something in me for me it's so important what people think about my performance you know mean I want to do the best but I sweat what if I'm failing and they will never invite me back and as fat so like a pig so crazy and I felt on that stage listen to me I am not enough my high german my swiss german was speaking in tongues is awesome but English is another language and God spoke to me that night when I finished the message and said to me Leo you are enough the kingdom of God is not built on perfect English it's not built on perfect people [Applause] it's about people they're willing for going from test to test from test to test and you allow to go to do something in you and now five years later I am here and still it's a long way to go I just want to encourage you because often people think I'm not good enough I'm not smart enough I'm not gifted enough I don't have it what it takes but only when it is necessary action the kingdom of God if you say God Here I am use me not for me myself and I for your kingdom and for your glory and for your righteousness and I said to God the other day why I'm not perfect like some people God said to me you are an encouragement for all those people they're also not perfect don't they ever say are not enough just say God Here I am use me for me shape me cheap those things away out of me that doesn't belong to me and in the end I want to be more like you more of you less of me more of you less of me more of you less of me more of you less of me God is along your journey you will make progress and God is pushing you forward you know when a year ago Pastor Brian asked me would you love to preach in Hillsong I said why not I was shocked know why because that my wife my English is not enough and for the last year every Tuesday afternoon we went to an English class that you are able to understand a little bit more you pushed me past the brain so hard thanks for the challenge thanks for invitation let's close our eyes and all the locations also in this big building I want to say to you right now the favor of God is upon you and if you're facing some challenges some tests in your life it's because God is something about to do something greater something more meaningful and you paste a star not behind you there in front of you and God has installed more things you can ever dream or imagine can we be just quiet for for a minute in all the locations and even in here nails I believe if you're giving just room right now for the Holy Spirit he will speak to you I love it so much when the Holy Spirit speaks to you directly because right now he has a word for you an encouragement or a correction come Holy Spirit speak to me I'm like a sheep I'm able to hear you [Music] [Music] [Music] ran out the Holy Spirit is reminding me about something happened a week ago and week ago a lady from America she came to me and she said I have a word from the Lord for you and he said yeah shoot it out and she said very often you say in your messages my English is not good and she's a very friendly lady she's from America they're always positive they're not from decisional she's not from Germany just kidding they're friendly too and she said you always saying my English is not good enough and she said why do you curse yourself and she said from now on say to yourself my English is enough because anointing is not build on a perfect English don't ever say again you're not enough and right now while we're closing our eyes I had this word from God for some people right now don't ever say to yourself or to your friends I am not enough or are not able to speak or not I'm not able to write songs or not unable to be a leader don't ever say that because Christ lives in you and nothing on planet earth can stop the will of God in your life and the favor of God is never leaving you it's upon you and right now there's some people right now we have to speak to your soul into your spirit I am enough because Christ died on my behalf I am enough because my life belongs to the Lord and he lives in me he is along my journey and I will make progress and I will be prosperous blooming and blossoming because the anointing of the Lord is in me and upon me I'd love to pray maybe you're here in them in the satellites maybe you've never given your life to Jesus Christ or you feel right now I'm far away from God I lost the connection I lost the trust I did my own thing there's so much me myself and I in me and along your journey you lost really the connection to God I want to give you right now the opportunity to make cheese as your Lord and Savior maybe for the very first time or as a recommitment but all the eyes are closed in all the locations if this is you were just I would love to lead you into a prayer where you surrender your life to the Lords of the Lord's and let's do this together I'll pray one sentence loud and wherever you are in all the location just follow that prayer can we do this together and for a lot of people right now this prayer will change your whole entire life it's not just a prayer it's a declaration it's a commitment for the very first time or again Savior Jesus thank you for my unique life forgive me all my sins and failures I receive your forgiveness I make you as my Lord and Savior leave me and guide me [Music] bless me and protect me I am yours forever and analysis phony prayer despair we are forgiven we are born again we belong to the family of God God says welcome home and I pray for everyone on each person right now God is along your journey and that has nothing to do with my feelings its effect the God has committed his entire life hole heaven to bring the best out of you me and I bless you that you grow into the capacity of God from day to day from test to test and from day to day you glorify God Almighty more from day to day God Here I am I surrender my life to you use my gifts my abilities
