Succeed in Passing On a Godly Legacy with Ptr. Peter Tan-chi (052018)

today we will end our series on life goals what is true success everybody could be be true success everybody is becoming all that God wants you to be doing all that he wants you to do and hearing him say well done good and faithful servant notice true success has two basic components one becoming all that God wants you to be becoming true success has to do with your character becoming all that God wants you to be you and I are focused on doing we like to do this we like to do that we like to accomplish certain things but may I suggest more important than doing first is be the right person allow God to transform your character success without character is dangerous so what is true success everybody say that with me becoming all that God wants you to be it is becoming becoming the right person because God is more concerned with your character believe me that in what you do why because what you do will become the byproduct of who you are so what is true success everybody becoming all that God wants you to be and doing all that he wants you to do it notice that doing now there are many things in life you are supposed to do people get tired people get burnout because they are doing a lot of things that God does not want them to do so what is true success everybody becoming all that God wants you to be allowed God to transform your life and then do what he wants you to do not what you want to do and if you do these two things faithfully because of your desire to please God what's going to be the end the end result of true success everybody read to hear him say hear Jesus say well done good and faithful seven today our topic deals with the idea of leaving a legacy let's read this together today what are we going to talk about succeed in passing on a godly legacy whether you like it or not you will leave a legacy good or bad what enters your mind when you think of the word legacy for most people it's money for most people it's material things nothing wrong with that for most people maybe it's a company it's a building it's it's something material when you think of the word legacy may I suggest you think of what is most important to you share with me what is most important because what is most important should be your legacy if you think money is most important then you will pass on to your children the love of money if you think kindness generosity is most important you will pass on that character traits to your children you get to decide what is most important for you a number two if I think of the word legacy you know what enters my mind I have to decide to be intentional if I'm not intentional I cannot pass on what is most precious to me so the next word you've got to think of is what in tensioner another word that will enter my mind is the word future legacy has to do with the future it has to do with future tense it has to do with consequences for example memorize disco tation when it comes to legacy the life you live will be the legacy you live in other words when I pass away the people around me my children my grandchildren we'll do something it has to do with my legacy or it may have nothing to do with my legacy it depends it's future tense how my life will impact their lives she passing on spiritual blessing is not automatic for example in 1st Samuel chapter 1 verse 3 you have a description of a priest the sons of Eli Eli was the leader of the priestess he was like the high priest of that time hope me and Phineas for the sons of Eli they were priests in other words Eli pass on the office he passed on a career what was the career of the children like father like son please please nothing wrong except the next verse will shock you one chapter later the Bible says in some wells chapter 2 the sons of Eli were worthless men why worthless the Bible says they did not know the Lord excuse me how can you be a priest and not know the Lord exhibit a the Philippines the Philippines is one of the most religious country in Asia our people every Sunday they try to go to a place like this yes or no they pray they do the Rito's yes or no but look at our country one of the few countries for AIDS HIV is increasing pornography is rampant premarital sex didn't explain pregnancy it's increasing and worst of all graft and corruption we're number one ladies and gentlemen how can this be a Christian nation the answer is this we are not a Christian nation we are a religious nation you can have religion and not know the Lord you can be here every Sunday your parents brings you your parents bring you here you sing you seem to be religious but your life according to the Bible it's worthless because you don't know the Lord my friend what must you do to make sure Spritle legacy is pass on legacy can be described as something like this what do people think of when they think of you let me give you let me give you example in this holy land tour I met a friend of mine and I asked him you know you are such a nice guy this guy was so helpful he was very kind and at that time when we were together I'm not even sure if he knows the Lord or not yet but praise God he got baptized this trip I said why are you so nice he's a businessman successful businessman you know what he told me I think it's because of my father I said what about your father he said my father was very kind very generous very helpful when people are in trouble my father will go out of his way to help them and because of my father I believe I became like them I am helpful I like to help people I praise God the impact of his father is to help him be generous now what about you what did your father or mother leave behind what is their legacy to you think about it second question what legacy do you want to leave behind now when I say legacy I don't mean here to be married I don't mean you have to be children but you will leave a legacy whether you like it or not can you tell your neighbor what do you like to be remembered for tell your neighbor right now don't look at me tell your neighbor what do you like to be remembered for what legacy haha let me tell you why I am forcing you the thing the time to prepare for your legacy it's not the time when you're about to die you prepare your legacy now while you're still young when the future is ahead of you you think of what legacy you need to leave behind that's why to me legacy is a very important topic today I wanna share with you why you need to listen to this message because it will prepare you to face the future what is this it's empty someday something will be written here depending on where you were buried happier buried when I was studying in seminary my professor asked me to bring my tombstone where my tombstone at that time was like a cartoon paper we are all asked in our class to bring our future tombstone in the class I perform our professor said now imagine you are dead what will people say about you so I close my eyes now all of you you close your eyes you are supposed to follow this ritual close your eyes everybody close your eyes imagine you're in a funeral parlor I wanted to imagine your body is in the casket are you not imagining and your family members are going in front are you imagining and they are going to say something about you are you imagining all right what will they say think what will they say okay wake up now before you fall asleep wake up now listen what they say is one thing what you want them to say is another thing but the most important what will God say what will God say about you and my friend you need to prepare for this because you do not know when you're going to meet the Lord you do not know when you're gonna die nobody knows but I guarantee you 100 years from now none of you will be seated in the same place I guarantee you 100 years from now none of us would be here the way to prepare the time to prepare is not when you're about to die it's now the way you live today is the legacy you will live are you thinking you see many Christians don't think and by not thinking you don't even know whether you are a Christian or you another question you have never examined your own life as Plato once said the unexamined life is a useless life examples of obituaries second chronicles chapter 21 is the story of georan you know how the Bible describes Joran he was 32 years old when he became King and he died he departed with no one's regret Kohana though when he died nobody cried and they buried him in the City of David but not in the tombs of the kings he was a king but the assault he was not entitled to be buried in the King he died - no one's regret let me ask you when you die what would people say hallelujah finally no more time I hope not now another obituary if you ask me not exactly a bit worried but what God has to say I love this one David you know why I love David's obituary let me tell you David did a lot of stupid things David committed adultery not only adultery he murdered the husband of the girl he had adultery with awful awful did but you know what David repented and that's why I'd like you to realize you can happen you could have made mistakes in the past how many of you have regrets in the past you did something that you can do it all over again you will not do it you have regrets in your life raise your hands praise God because the truth is I've made mistakes have you made mistakes I look at my life there are certain things I wish I never did there are certain things I wish I could've done I made mistakes my what I did I made mistakes but what I did not do David was such a man but look at how God describes him God described David everybody read a man after my heart how can that be do you see what I'm saying your pass does not have to define you your mistake does not have to be final all of you can change your destiny provided you come to know the Lord look at another commendation of the Bible about David David after he has yet served the purpose of God in his own generation fell asleep was laid among his father's in this place of the Kings David served the purpose of God in his generation let me ask you will you be that man or God will say this man served my purpose it's not a good obituary I think so is this a good obituary when God says a man after my heart who will do all my will ladies and gentlemen a mistake is never final you need to understand God is the god of the second chance the third chance so friends legacy is something you need to decide early before you die so what are you thinking what have you decided on the most important thing in your life what's the topic today let's read together succeed in passing on a godly legacy look at your neighbor tell your neighbor succeed in passing on a godly legacy what is a godly legacy a godly legacy has to do with what is eternal not temporal a godly legacy has to do with things that will survive even after you die that's why I believe the greatest legacy we have is to know Jesus is to have Jesus let's read this together this is eternal life that they may know you and the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent what is internal life the most important thing if you were to ask me that you should have eternal life what is the use of all your money of all your possessions of all your titles if you don't have eternal life ladies and gentlemen do you know where you spend eternity do you know where you will go after you die what God is offering us something so precious eternal life and how do you have eternal life that they may know you when the Bible uses the word know it is not about intellectual knowledge its intimacy it's experiential what do I mean do you know about president eternity I do I know about him but I don't really know him when the Bible uses the word no it means neutral you know Jesus and Jesus knows you that's intimacy and the Bible says that is the most important thing you will know him now question how do you pass on a godly legacy number one personal encounter with the Lord you cannot pass on Jesus if you don't have Jesus you cannot pass on something you don't possess so personal experience personal encounter it is not enough to have an encounter with the Lord you need to pursue intimacy get to know him be passionate about him and lastly when you pursue intimacy you will want to pass it on pass on intentionally are you ready let us look at the life of Paul what are the principles you can find and you will notice the three principles number one a personal encounter with the Lord let's read this Paul said Philippians 3:7 whatever things were gain to me these things had counted as loss for the sake of Christ here is the observation for the Apostle Paul he uses an accounting word he uses the word I counted as loss this word counted is a very important word in the book of Philippians because he uses it many times the word count that means I have considered I have evaluated I've studied the pros and the cons and here is my conclusion so what Paul is saying is something like this forever things were gain to me what were these things you read verses five and six you read the previous verses what was Paul saying Paul is saying I am a religious man I am a leader Paul says when it comes to zeal for God I am zealous when it comes the position I'm a Pharisee Paul has all of those good things but Paul said you know what I consider them as lofts in other words many times you have to give up something in order to gain something he said for the sake of Christ many people including you including me don't understand that Christian life is not about addition sometimes you need subtraction now listen to me in the Christian life sometimes you have to subtract certain things in order to gain other things some of you is prevented from coming to Christ because you want to cling on to something it can be a relationship it can be a religion it can be a tradition Paul is saying I thought about all of this I can take them as loss I'm willing for the sake of Christ with the next verse more than that I count all things to be lost and now he goes to the next stage not just the previous things his religiosity his position as his church leader he is now saying I count all things count I thought about it I computed it I analyze it all things what is she talking about it can include power prestige first money every other thing I thought about it I consider them as what nothing compared to the surpassing value of knowing Christ notice the word surpassing value in the Greek language the word hyper mapping is higher than this in other words to pass on a legacy you need to know what is most important in your life and what is most important is what you will pass on for the Apostle Paul Jesus is most important you need to have an encounter with Jesus I consider them loss for the surpassing value noticed for the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord my friends the Bible is not against money the Bible is not against your family the Bible is not against success all of those are good but the enemy of the Christian life are not usually the bad things the enemy of the Christian life are the good things at the expense of the best what's wrong with relationship what's wrong with boyfriends nothing wrong except when they become your God in your life when something good becomes ultimate that becomes very bad so Paul is saying I told about all of this they prevent me from intimacy with the Lord anything that slows you down anything that stops you from growing in the Lord anything that slows you down in serving the Lord ladies and gentlemen be willing to let go because it is not worth it compared to the surpassing value if you don't know Jesus you will not know is the one of supreme value now you begin to understand why some Christians are like fanatics I don't know of a true Christian who is not fanatic when people look at your life do they know that you really love the Lord if they don't see that something's wrong you have not discovered the supreme value of Jesus and you will never discover the supreme value of something especially of Jesus until you lose everything do you realize many times God allows us with problems so that you will appreciate all that he has think about it look at this verse surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord for whom I have suffered the loss of all things he literally suffered loss he doesn't mine and count them but rubbish so that I may gain Christ you know what is talking about the word rubbish literally is from the Greek word done bu ng considering the supreme value of who Jesus is all of these things Fame power position all this I consider them as done as rubbish rotten food manure what will make a man do that what will make a man be willing to suffer everything all the loss and for him it's good it's not bad for somebody who knows Jesus dear friends many of you had counterfeit satisfaction counterfeit God's in your life most famous for young people is pornography boyfriends girlfriends relationships you think you're happy with these kind relationships but those relationships will never satisfy you the best guy the best girl will not satisfy your innermost longing you know for the Apostle Paul this is his conclusion for to me to live is Christ and to die is gain the supreme value is Jesus can you honestly say for to me to live is Christ that's all I live for to die is gain if your equation is this for to me to live is money to die is loss for to me to live is popularity to die is loss for to me to live is relationship to die is loss but if your equation is different mathematically if you know the mass of Paul for to me to live is Christ as long as a high price no matter what everything is positive everything is game so my friend is up to you what do you want most in your life for the Apostle Paul an encounter with Jesus open his eyes and encounter with Jesus change his value Jesus is not the most important and that's how you pass on a legacy you determine what is most important I love my children I five wonderful children I thought of what will I pass on to them business money nothing wrong with all of the above but for me the most important is Jesus if my children dub Jesus Christ and they know Jesus Christ loves them they'll be okay no matter what they will be okay but if they have everything and they don't have Jesus they will not be okay so you want to pass on a godly legacy number one personal encounter with Jesus you must realize Jesus is the most precious your greatest treasure not only that you have to pursue him you know why you have to understand this principle he is no fool who gives up what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose men pursue Jesus not to pursue him it's one thing to know him but you really know him intimately what does it mean to know him intimately it means your salvation is secure look at the next verse Philippians 3:9 and may be found in Jesus not having a righteousness of my own derived from the law but that which is through faith in Christ the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith for the Apostle Paul he discovered two kinds of righteousness why is she talking about righteousness because Paul knew apart from righteousness you can never enter Heaven to be righteous means to go to heaven he discovered there are two righteousness one is based on the law in Tagalog healing sheikah program I obey the law I obey the 10 commandments Paul said not having a righteousness of my own derived from the law you see once upon a time if you read Philippians chapter 5 verses 4 5 6 Paul is saying when it comes to the 10 commandments I have obeyed all of them Wow Paul says when it comes to the law I am blameless what is Paul saying Paul is saying externally based on human standards I have obeyed the law but when it comes the righteousness of God I discovered I am a sinner why the 10 commandments says thou shalt not commit adultery jesus said if you look at a woman a new lust after her you already commit adultery in your heart the 10 commandment says thou shalt not murder Jesus says if you hate somebody if you don't have forgiveness if you have bitterness you are guilty of murder in other words the Apostle Paul discovered that the standards of men are different from the standards of God so the righteousness of man is one thing but the righteousness of God is completely another thing Paul had enough righteousness not to get into trouble but he does not have enough righteousness to enter heaven let me repeat Paul had enough righteousness to get out of any scandal but he did not have enough righteousness to enter heaven because to enter Heaven the righteousness you need is perfection he discovered only through Jesus so let's be together but that which is true faith in Christ everybody read now the righteousness which comes from God so there is a righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith the first righteousness the righteousness of my own cyrillic c-cup that comes from the law comes from externalism nothing wrong with obeying the law you must obey the law but by obeying the law you will not make it to heaven because that righteousness is not good enough you need a righteousness that surpasses the righteousness of the law which is the loader which is the righteousness of God now let me ask you how righteous are you today my friend believe me you are as righteous as Jesus the moment you ask Jesus to be your Lord and Savior the Bible says his righteousness is given to you what happened to your sinfulness my sinfulness was transferred to Jesus when Jesus died on the cross he took my place and when he died on the cross he gave me his righteousness that is what Paul discovered Jesus is of supreme value because he is my righteousness can you tell your neighbor Jesus is my righteousness how righteous are you answer as righteous as Jesus second question are you going to heaven yes or no louder if you have Jesus if your answer is no you are not sure you know why because up to today you don't understand the gospel you don't understand the good news of Jesus when Jesus died on the cross he took your place jesus said you can never enter heaven apart from him and you can never earn heaven because you are never righteous enough and you will never be good enough however if you come to Jesus jesus said I am the way the truth and the life I am your righteousness and that's why for the Apostle Paul the most precious thing is righteousness from Jesus it's Jesus look at this desire you want the personal legacy you have to pursue intimacy Paul said that I'm a brother with everybody that I may know him and the power of his resurrection and the Fellowship of his sufferings being conformed to his death notice the meaning of knowing Jesus experientially our not experience is power experientially I will now experience intimacy fellowship experientially I'll be conformed to Christ likeness my friend that is the meaning of intimacy pursuing intimacy with the Lord your experience is amazing power to change your life he says and the power of the Resurrection do you believe the Christian life is hard yes or no the Christian life is not hard it is impossible you need the life of Christ the power some of you are in the pornography I know it you are struggling I have good news for you so if you are addicted to drugs to cocaine though alcohol it does not matter you are Jesus you stir under your life to him I read the story of a guy who smokes six packs a day a dedicated Muslim his goal in life is to destroy Christians in the Jews he was a right-hand man of Arafat he's a member of the PLO Palestinian Liberation do you understand radical he hated Christians he hated the Jews one day he met Jesus and something drastically happened he simply read a verse in the beginning was the word and the word was with god and the word was god in the quran bible they knew the word referring to jesus and he got shot make a long story short from that day onward quit smoking he no longer needed nicotine from that day forward he couldn't believe it he began to love the Jews he began to love Christians he cannot explain it and that my friend is the meaning the power of the resurrection of Christ God can change your life amen power to be conformed to the image look at this verse to know him and the power transform Life Fellowship of his sufferings ladies and gentlemen many of you are not taught properly you think coming to Christ needs no suffering my friend should God allow suffering he brings intimacy can I tell you something it is a means of pain it's a means of trials in my own life when I became very intimate with Jesus it is never good times the closest time I have with the Lord the most precious time I learned most about Jesus it's during times when I mean under trial it's never a good time and God allows problems in your life to draw you closer to him you will never know that Jesus is sufficient until all you have is Jesus and that's why sometimes God takes away relationships he takes away everything you are depending on so that all you have is the Lord and then you discover the Lord is sufficient you will never want to pass on a gaudy legacy if you are not passionate about Jesus because you have not experienced him for you Jesus is a Satori for you Jesus is just a religion my friend CCF is not into religion we will not waste time telling people join CCF no we want you to fall in love with Jesus and when you fall in love with Jesus you'll learn about Islam and when you love Jesus you will tell others about Jesus amen and that's the meaning of how you pass on the legacy you pursue intimacy and the Bible tells us brethren I do not regard myself as having laid hold of it yet but one thing I do forgetting what lies behind reaching forward to what lies ahead you know what Paul is saying Paul is humble enough brethren I do not regard myself as having laid hold of it yet police say I am not perfect Hindi bubble dungeon but I am growing I am continually growing to know Jesus but one thing I do not as she said one thing I do the problem of the Christian life is not the bad things you do is the many good things that you'd like to do but they are not the most important thing let's look at your life you are full of activities they are not exactly bad but you have neglected the most important thing what is the one thing you need to do can I tell you the one thing you need to do I'm people discovered the one thing in your life how can you pass on that one thing you have so many things for the Apostle Paul that one thing is Jesus for David that one thing is the Lord you know what David prayed let's look at David one thing notice one thing not many one thing I have asked from the Lord that I shall seek one preoccupation that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life to behold the beauty of the Lord and to meditate in his temple for David the most important thing is the Lord Himself now let me ask you is that your one thing Jesus Christ to love him to meditate on Islam to grow until Jesus is the most important in my friend how in the world are you going to pass on this legacy you are not in love with Jesus you're in love with your start you're in love with your religion have you discovered your one thing you know for the Apostle Paul one thing I do you want to keep on knowing Jesus and you know may I advise you guys what you need to learn to do today the pursue intimacy the pursue a good a godly legacy learn forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead what does it mean when you learn to forget what lies behind what does that mean do you have past regrets yes or no past mistakes yes or no past failures may I suggest do not be paralyzed by the pass it does not mean you develop amnesia to forget simply means you don't allow the pass to define you you don't allow the pass to paralyze you you don't use the pass to hurt yourself to hurt others let go let go of the pass and then you focus on the future I press on notice what he said forgetting what lies behind I reach forward to what lies ahead you focus I one of the best example I can think of of forgetting what lies behind this one main thing promoting Jesus is this famous man but I don't know too miss famous you may not know him how many of you have heard of John Newton raise your hand John Newton well now you have heard of him raise your hand John Newton who is John Newton John Newton had a horrible past his first job was he was fired why he hated Authority he was lazy and rudely they fired him his next job believe it or not was a teenager they join the Royal Navy he deserted he did not like submission to Authority he ran away from the Navy they captured him they put him in Chains they discipline him this guy was a past problematic his third job problematic also in other words this guy was a headache he got into the shipping business he got on the slave trading the buying and selling of slaves horrible business and according to his own diary he tempted people to commit sin it was a pleasure seeker he said uses people this guy was problematic one day on the boat on the ship there was a typhoon a storm and he began to pray bhadram Christian but he did not know Jesus in the storms of life you are forced to pray yes or no he met the Lord John Newton gave his life to Jesus and when he was very old already he said my memory is fading but I remember two things number one I remember I am a great sinner but Jesus is a great Savior and he wrote the following he wrote this famous song Amazing Race this is from John Newton once a slave trader in fact if you know what it is epital you know what he wrote in his tombstone what they wrote once upon a time a sinner a libertine a playboy but say rescued transformed by the grace of God and now called to preach the gospel he once tried to destroy that's genuine here on the following Amazing Grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me I once was lost but now I'm found was blind but now I see there is intimacy with the Lord because you have experienced him and what do you want to do you want to pass it on you know what Paul said I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus as you see all of us are in a race for the Apostle Paul God called him to preach the gospel to disciple people among the Gentiles so policy I press policy I am passionate about Jesus I want to be all that he wants me to be and I will make him known you know the most of the Apostle Paul to know him and to make him known to know of Jesus and to make others know Jesus that is what John Newton did he did not dwell on his past and his giftedness his encouragement he knows how to encourage people he's good in later writings he read thousands of letters he may not be a good preacher like Billy Graham but my goodness he knows how to encourage people do you know how to encourage people he encouraged people to be all that God wants him to be one of them was Hannah more Hannah became the leader the Sunday School movement Hannah more got involved with Sunday School to make it popular that's higher more you know John Newton impacted who else William Carey who is William Carey William Carey is the father of modern mission he was the missionary the first missionary who went to India I mean this guy not the first but modern man modern times is the father of modern missions he impacted lives in Indian or because of John Newton's influence but his greatest influence if you ask me is William Wilberforce William Wilberforce was in politics he was the member of the British Parliament the youngest member of his time after William Wilberforce met Jesus he wanted to quit he wanted to resign from politics John Newton told him don't you are called at this hour to be in politics make the most out of it for Jesus pursue your calling and William Wilberforce made his life commitment to abolish slavery it was hard to abolish slavery he was against slave owners he was against plantation owners he was against business people he was against interest groups they mocked him it took him 40 years imagine to fight it out in the parliament before he died England passed the most amazing bill the complete abolition of slavery throughout the British Empire my friend one man can influence the world but you must understand this principle you only influence people by your life that's why Paul said join in following my example of serve those who walk according to the pattern you have business it's all about example it's all about modeling the life you live is the legacy you will live and that's why Paul tells us the Commission of XI F make disciples to make disciples that's exactly what Paul is saying what is the mission of shittier what is the mission of CCF to make Christ committed followers see she F Christ permitted followers that's a great Commission may Christ omitted followers who will make Christ permitted followers that's our mission the things which you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses and Trust is to faithful men will be able to teach others also Paul to Timothy what you heard from me Timothy you entrust to faithful men who will be able to entrust this to others one life at a time that's how you pass on a legacy encounter Jesus pursue him and pass it on one life at a time look at this amazing confession changing the world requires changing the lives of people how can you change the world for the better if you don't change the lives of people it's one life at a time one family at a time for example in my family I have five wonderful children I started influencing my own family five wonderful children all happily married I began to influence my my in-laws we discipled all of them by the grace of God we multiplied you know how many grandchildren I have can you count us up now 19 two weeks ago one came alone so 19 I have obeyed the commandment go and multiply I want a godly legacy amen now I asked this morning I asked them because they were here this morning I asked them to come forward I asked their downlines to come forward let me give you an example of their downlines and these are example of their downlines they are the reunion this is Paul's group and not all of them are in this picture one life at a time one family at a time which is posted online can you see one life at a time one family at a time pass on Jesus Christ now this is Eric's downline one family at a time one life at a time example of this downline my friend changing the world require changing the lives of people only one life will soon be pass only what's done for Christ will last today I want you to consider what legacy will you leave behind him only one life don't mess it up life is too short eternity is long how will you spend eternity you will never know the legacy you will leave behind because many times you don't see it in your lifetime but I want you to be faithful be intentional if you need to volunteer in Sunday school you need to encourage somebody share the gospel with your neighbor with officemate you will never know really the legacy that's gonna happen as a result of your obedience and your love for Jesus but my friend you got to have first help Jesus bow your heads perhaps there are some of you here today you have never given your life to Jesus in other words you have never really surrendered to him as your Lord and Savior you are not yet sure you are going to heaven but today you want to be sure I want to pray for you will you raise your hands today you want to be sure understand my question for the first time you really want to be sure you raise your hands raise your hand higher you pray this prayer with me it's a prayer of surrendering your life to Jesus and to trust him as your Lord many of you anybody else raise your hand I wanted to pray this prayer with me sincerely from the heart Lord Jesus I have never been sure that you are in my life today I humble myself before you I confess I am a sinner and I need you for the forgiveness of my sins I now invite you Jesus I invite you to come into my life I invite you right now Lord Jesus as my Lord and my Savior Jesus come in be my master be my lord [Music] second challenge with your head bowed down you are committing to pass on this legacy you want God to help you to pass on this godly legacy by introducing others to Jesus one at a time would you like me to pray for you raise your hands in fact if you want a pass on this legacy why don't you stand up as I pray for you don't stand up because everybody is standing up you stand up because you want to commit to pass on this legacy to others you are saying Lord starting today I want to plan for my legacy one soul at a time one family at a time one community at a time in your office at home wherever you are you want to pass on this legacy some of you are struggling you are thinking whether you should stand up or not my friend all I ask you to do is to be willing and I'll pray for you that God will give you the opportunity and the strength if you are willing stand up anybody else as long as you are willing you stand up because God is always working for willing heart but I want you to surrender to Jesus to accept the call the bus on a gaudy legacy anybody else praise God Lord Jesus I thank you for this group of men and women we hid the call the willingness to allow you to use us help us to a personal encounter personal experience with your saving knowledge
