used to live across the way there we need some adjustment on this mic please have it at the same level proper level there are too many echoing we are broadcasting please adjust it properly but i remember the age 11 when i first came into contact with jesus when god opened up my understanding for me to understand his words i remember getting baptized in fact i recall as our church was started on the other side i was the first person that was baptized in jesus name in the pool it was two of us paul taylor and myself frank kellier i was the first one to step in the pool i was baptized in jesus name i remember my friends and the neighborhood they said oh frank is the rudest boy around here and there's no way he's going to change you talk about bad i was back at 11 i would fight anybody stand my brother please stand there was about a young man as tall as this brother here strapping the bible and diva was the one who would go around those backs of the boys in their head just box them up and push them aside one day the evo boxed me and my eye was all could only catch his knee or about his legs and i mean i punched deeper left and right and his legs left and right i wasn't afraid of people you can see that so i was bad and they gave up on me and said frank will never never make it hallelujah but that was 1960 on five and frank kellier at age 68 is still serving the lord i want to tell every person here every young person especially yes it might be bad yes you might have done something out of the way amen and they have given up on you but i want to tell you friends god loves

called me and asked me to um you know to speak i was prepared even though i am not but i'm just gonna tell you my experience in the lord and i hope it will bless somebody this morning you know to know that god is good and to know that god is real it was in the year 1997 i became thirsty and this thirst that i felt on the inside it wasn't a thirst for water i searched all over it wasn't water and i was led to kings chapel by the lord then when i came i liked the worship and you know everything i went back home and i considered and i think it was in january they had the youth week and i told myself i'm gonna come out every night to this youth week the first night i came i feel a bit better the second night i came i went to the altar and all of this is happening to me while the spirit of the lord was drawing me close to him and i had an experience here at the altar brethren and that experience draw me closer to christ i then begin to walk with him not by sight but by faith when i tell you that i walk with him not by sight but by faith i did brethren i walk with christ by faith there were days wherein the lord actually removed every bit of food from my table i wasn't working for children my husband wasn't around my mother wasn't around my father i was like in a place all by myself but it was only jesus and i he wanted me to prove him and brethren i proved him i did prove him he bought food on my table when i was hungry and not because of that i'm serving him but because of his word that he has embedded within me that is the reason why i'm standing here this morning and i can tell you that god is real to cut a long story short i just want to say this brethren that while i was thinking this morning of the goodness of the lord in isaiah you know the scripture is so fitting in isaiah 54 that says sing or barren though shall those though did this not bear break forth into singing and cry alone though that didn't travail with child for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the marred wife said the lord it goes down to verse six and it says for the lord had called thee as a woman forsaken i was forsaken for the lord has called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit and the wife of youth when thou was refused saith the lord brethren i was refused glory be to god but the lord said for a moment i have forsaken thee but with great mercies i will gather thee it goes down back again and it says that verse 11 all thou are afflicted tossed with tempest and not comforted behold i will lay their stones with fear colors and lay their foundations with sapphires and i will make their windows of a gates and their gates of carbuncles and all their borders of pleasant stones and all thy children shall be taught of the lord and great shall be the peace of thy children in righteousness shalt thou be established though shall be far from oppression for those shall not fear and from terror for it shall not come near thee behold they shall gather together and you know brethren i want to tell you god is so good in my life we are in when i pray and when i ask him for things he he will he he always come true for me i'm telling you he always come true i just want to say to someone this morning that feels rejected the god is by your side i just want to say to somebody this morning that has been forsaken you think that you have been forsaken no you're not god is standing by your side just reach out to him reach out to him he's calling your name just like he did to me i was forsaken i was rejected but god saw me through and here i am today my testimonies are so many i've proven him so many times you see he tells us in his word that our righteousness is like filthy rags but faith it is true faith we will be put right with god and i had faith in him yes there are many other struggles that i may be going through at this time but i believe in god because i know he's a way america i just want to tell somebody this morning though he may seem dark and slippery in god trust in him and have faith and wait upon the lord god bless you please lord everybody can we praise the lord one more time praise god so i was asked to share my testimony however i will do that but i guess there are some things that i have to say that's a little bit different and so i'm just asking to bear with me i have a few minutes so i'll just pack it in so i got saved at the age of 17 um 2015 right here i was invited i didn't come when i was invited i came sometime after that in that period of my life i was going through a lot i was on the verge of committing suicide i planned out everything already it wasn't i was going to go to kingston i already laid out all my plans and already set everything into motion and it was the saturday evening that i was supposed to leave and while i was coming from the dressmaker because i was supposed to go to a an event in kingston while i was coming from the dress vehicle i live at leaders avenue so there's a sign when you're coming this way that says this way to king's chapel and to tell you the truth in all my time living there i've never seen that sign like it's always there but sometimes you just i just never see it until that particular day when i was to go to kingston i saw the sun and i remember that i was invited the long and short of the story is that i came to church this sunday i don't remember what was preached i don't even think i heard anything much but all i know was that before the altar call was officially given i came to the altar i reached out i received the holy ghost i was baptized two sundays after and since then it has been really it has been our journey i can tell you that it's not easy but what i realized since today is all about evangelism and today it's about missions since being saved i have now come to understand that as a witness commissioned by god to tell people about jesus yes my experience matters but what also matters is that evangelism is not only a ministry but it is also a lifestyle and a lot of persons you know i know it can be an exciting feeling to go out there and say that you're proclaiming jesus but what i have come to understand is that if you are not living your life in devotion to god if you are not living your life in service to god outside of the tabernacle and in the private quarters of your home and when you go to work and school and wherever you go your ministry is not going to be effective and i have i have experienced that and that is what i just want to share with you today i know it's a bit different but please bear with me um just to read from john saint john 1 the witness of john the baptist i'm just going to read from verse 6 to 14 from the amplified version it says that there came a man commissioned and sent from god whose name was john this man came as a witness to testify about the light so that all might believe in christ the light through him john was not the light but came to testify about the light there it was the true light the genuine perfect steadfast light which coming into the world enlightens everyone he christ was in the world and though the world was made through him the world did not recognize him he came to that which was his own that which belonged to him his world his creation his position and those who were his own people the jewish nation did not receive and welcome him but as many as did receive and welcome him he gave the right the authority the privilege to become children of god that is to those who believe in adhere to trusting and rely on his name who were born not of blood natural conception nor the will of the flesh physical impulse nor the will of man that of natural father but of god that is a divine and supernatural birth they are born of god spiritually transformed renewed sanctified and the word christ what became flesh and lived among us and we actually saw his glory glory has belonged to the one and only begotten of the father the son who is truly unique the only one of his kind who is full of grace and truth absolutely free of deception as witnesses of god we are as the bible declares we are salt and we are light light illuminates it allows those who are in darkness or whatever is in darkness to be revealed and as light that is what we should be doing that is our that is how we should operate so i think sometimes we tend to lose sight of why we were born again and while it is a magnificent thing that the lord has done for us beyond our ability to repay lest we forget we have been commissioned to go we are branded as ambassadors and given the ministry of reconciliation as believers we have a restored relationship with god through jesus christ and it is our responsibility for those who do not know christ to proclaim the gospel and his assurance that forgiveness of sin is available in christ and that sin prevents us from having a relationship with god jesus's perfect sacrifice on the cross made atonement for sin and brought harmony to mankind's relationship with him jesus reconciled us to god now we can proclaim that people can repent of their sin and be right with god again through faith in jesus we are called to win souls for christ and absolutely nobody is exempt sometimes we tend to look at the faces of people and say that oh well may not go to the wonder because they look him look how we are this one look like them all right nobody who is living outside of christ is okay and we need to understand that he came not to call the righteous but sinners unto repentance and because of that because god so loved the world he gave his only begotten son right that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life so we have to demonstrate the change that is necessary for our life to shine that men may see the works we do and glorify the father which is in heaven there is a blessed assurance that we have in christ which on earth's a type of anointing that transcends the very definition of our human feelings and existence it unleashes a kind of joy that the world and its pleasures cannot give nor comprehend and it is only attainable and available exclusively to the children of god so if we have this kind of assurance how is it that we can sit so comfortably knowing that we have this type of assurance and we don't want to share it with those who are living in darkness those who are living and they have and they're so miserable those who are living and they're so tormented those who are living and they have no others hope but to you know always go there and try to find other persons to help them and they're let down and they're discouraged until we hear that they have taken their lives because of stress and all of these things we have this kind of assurance and we cannot sit down comfortably and keep it to ourselves when you win something you want the whole world to know we have one christ our christ has won us why is it that we cannot share that with those who are living out there in sin if you are here today and you are not saved if you so desire to be a part of this effervescent spiritual awakening you must therefore be bored again and the experience of being born again is a supernatural life-changing event that will resuscitate you from your deadness brought on by sin let me tell you something i was not like this there was a time when i didn't even want to look myself in the mirror because of how ugly i was internally and externally i used to color my face with dark um makeup stuff because i wanted to project an image of evil i wanted people to fear me i wanted them to see me and look at me as some evil person and my thoughts matched my face and my image because all i could think about was negativity but today because of the righteousness and the blood of jesus christ i am standing here changed because of the work and that same assurance and hope that i have in christ because of the work he has started in me i am here today as i live in witness and testament of the cleansing power of the blood of jesus christ so the process of being born again is simply repenting of your sins which is to acknowledge confess and abandon your evil ways and turn to god and be baptized after which you will receive the life-giving spirit of jesus through the infilling of the holy ghost that is done in his name jesus christ as i said evangelism is not just a ministry but it is also a lifestyle when i was coming to church this morning it just really confirmed what i was thinking about yesterday i was in a taxi and there's a gentleman in there and he said to me you don't know me i said yes i know you and he said to me that which church do you attend i said i'd go to king's chapel and he said mina go back down there and i was like okay then and it was like so i used to come there and somebody in leadership actually disencouraged him from not coming back because of how he was treated and i said i apologize and i said i'm so sorry and he was telling me what was happening and you know i was just thinking about i mean god this is like a confirmation of what i was saying we all want to be evangelists and big-time persons and whatever but what of our lifestyle that is important how we treat people it is important how we deal with people because we don't know who it is that we are dealing with this person actually came here and he said that he came here to make a contribution to the church and he was like imagine may come for help and you know one gave me contribution and stuff and this is how i was treated and when he was living out at the bakery he said pray for me that maybe may come back but say you're gonna come back because i believe it and this is what i'm trying to allow us to understand evangelism is not just a ministry it's also a lifetime style and we cannot expect to live any way that we please and then seek to tell people about god just in case you forget we are constantly being watched for some people they will never step foot into a church because sorry just in case we forget we are constantly being watched and for some people we are the bible that they see and if our actions and speech betray us as christians they will never step foot into our church because they judge our daily conduct and then come to the conclusion that all church people are hypocrites so whether or not you are doing your best to please god they are going to class you as an hypocrite too because of those who seek to destroy the name of jesus with their actions and we cannot allow that i don't think that they want to come these people were anywhere i don't think that they want to come from a place that is filled with hypocrites and all sorts of bad mind people and not sort of crosses right and come into a place that we proclaim can save or help them and it is filled with the same kind of people people nowadays they are not running to problem they are trying to get out of problem so as a hospital we are supposed to make this place hospitable for persons when they come it doesn't matter what it is listen in every workplace you have animosity between people but when a sick person come into the assembly we're supposed to be able to put aside our differences to help this person because they are dying our very presence when we show up to different places should make a difference those who walk in darkness should be able to look at our lives and say yes he or she is a true child of god because your works your light is now shining for them to see right and as i am about to close i just want to say this we can only be effective witnesses when or when we live our lives in obedience and sincerity before god jesus lived a life that was in total obedience to god and his obedience propelled his active response of love throughout his suffering and those with whom we he faced criticism opposition persecution abandonment rejection death threats mockery and humiliation he faced all of this and if we seek to evangelize this world we too are gonna be faced with these things but how do we deal with this jesus responded by showing love to these people in this in the face of being mocked and threatened and humiliated he showed them love because when he saw them he did not see them as boy bad-minded people are people who he saw them as being sick he saw them as being lost he saw them as being confused and when we look at people when they treat us a certain way we should not look at them as being bad or whatever we should look at them as how jesus sees them right we should look at them as being lost and there should be a compassion that then comes upon us to say let me tell this person about the life-changing experience that i have experienced and he too can experience this joy and this peace we have a burden for the lost and we also must have the love of god which is shared about in our hearts given to us when we receive the holy ghost to witness to those who are living in this dying world we have to love god and we can learn to love ourselves when we love god and others because of his death we want all those who are living in sin to experience this hope that we have i hope that we cherish not in vain knowing that even through perilous times we can be at peace in the gutter for salvation do not be ashamed to preach the gospel for it is the power of god unto salvation to everyone that believe it for in the gospel the righteousness of god is revealed both springing from faith and leading to faith disclose in a way that awakens more faith as it is written and forever remains the just and the upright shall live by faith so while god has done a marvelous work in our lives let us not keep it to ourselves but let us share this good news to those who are lost and dying in sin praise god [Applause] bless the lord jesus praise god praise god praise god praise god hallelujah you just stand everywhere praise the lord jesus i have listened attentively to the words that came both from sister blake praise god praise god and i realized something that we were caught off guard last year and one of the major things why we never witnessed was because of fear and there are a lot of things that we could have done as christians that we didn't because we were just so fearful praise god of of of of this thing that we cannot see and the truth is the word of god says that he that is with us is greater than whoever whatever that is against us hallelujah so today if you're here hallelujah and you have not yet surrendered your life to the lord hallelujah i am imploring you hallelujah but as i i made this appeal unto you that have not yet been baptized in the name of jesus and you have not yet received the gift of the holy ghost we are no longer slaves to fear praise our worship hallelujah [Music] [Music] and if you are here today this could be you and i jesus you are the only chance you get and maybe the very last chance you were yes i guess i said it earlier that what we do at the beginning of the year most times make new year's resolutions [Music] but i don't think that it's resolutions that needs to be made because most times within a week or two the resolutions are gone [Music] but what we need is to be resilient that means we're gonna stand you were all unmurdered i'll make room for you so if you're here today and you've not yet surrendered your life to the lord [Music] to these altars i believe that a work of faith you are all that matters [Music] hallelujah if you're here you know yourself come come hallelujah come thank you jesus thank you lord thank you lord hallelujah i'm no longer a slave to fear for i [Music] i said it before not a thing that has worked most on our brains during 2020 was the spirit of fear and the lord said he has not given us the spirit of fear of course i'm not telling you to just be careless but we have to be different we can't as christians be exactly like the people of the world every single israelite i think in first samuel chapter 19 i think was running away from goliath but david while everybody else was running he ran frightened the desire because everybody else was running from goliath he ran towards [Music] [Music] one more time i'm no longer a slave to fear yes for [Music] [Music] listen listen and for every person that has walked to the altar this morning just just think about it we who are here and are safe think about it remember for a moment where the lord took you from and as a matter of fact even though the lord has drawn you there are still struggles and there are issues but but we have ah we have this this thing in us that is saying you know god is able to keep us these who have come to the altar needs a change they need an encounter with the lord and i'm talking about the spirit of fear there are persons who work at the altar i'm not saying you necessarily have to come and touch but you can walk here and stand around these persons and pray just as how they took a walk of faith they could have stayed in their seat if you have the burning and the call of the lord on you you could walk just stand behind them and pray with them for i am a child of god i'm no longer a slave to fear for i am one more time i'm no longer a slave to fear yes foreign [Music] i lift it up lord come and quench this [Music] me [Music] is [Music] yes this is [Music] oh [Applause] [Music] i was speaking for things that could not satisfy [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] hey [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] yes [Music] [Music] is [Music] are you seeking for things that cannot satisfy but no you here [Music] that never [Music] i lifted [Music] this [Music] [Music] until [Music] [Music] [Music] lord [Applause] [Music] wherever [Music] [Music] [Music] to thy cross where though [Music] lord [Music] [Music] i am thine oh lord i have heard thy voice thy love to be [Music] [Music] oh me [Music] the [Music] [Music] us bleeding all over this building as the praise and worship sings softly all over this building all headspot we are going to be praying hallelujah and [Music] we are going to believe in the lord [Music] that he will do what only he god can do we can make the atmosphere but he's the one that does the drawing so we are going to believe him hallelujah bow your heads everywhere lord we thank you for your mercies and your goodness towards us this morning god there is absolutely none like unto you and lord we humbly approach your throne lord we have worshiped [Music] we have praised we have sung songs and here was the delivery of the word but lord you said in your word unless you draw them they cannot come so even though as i pray this prayer god as we're about to close i pray for the ones who have made the bold step to walk to the altars and for those who stood in their seat lord i pray that you give them no peace god you trouble them in their spirits lord god from this day henceforth lord until a surrendering takes place because this word that they heard today can do one of two things it can either save them or condemn them on the day of judgment but lord you said you are not willing that any should perish for all should come and have eternal life that's why you died lord so even though god i pray that you touch the hearts of those who are unsaved and for those of us god who are shaky are are not assured of what we're all about i pray that you straighten our hearts lord god that we may go forward as evangelists oh god let your will be done god almighty this day and god as we will be severing one from each other be our protector lord we thank you god almighty for the ones who have given their testimony o god and we know your word shall not enter return unto you void but it shall lord god accomplish that which it was sent for bless us god almighty as a church lord god and let your will and your will alone for our lives be done be with us lord god hallelujah and if it's your will god that we will have our second service in a while we pray oh god that you be with us also god keep your hands upon us lord and forsake us not we look to the lord as we lift our hands and we say thank you god thank you jesus thank you lord thank you lord thank you jesus thank you jesus [Music] right
