Sermon clips from Petaling Jaya churches

51s
“Or are you a Christ follower? What is a Christ follower? A person's got power. Power to preach. Power empowered by the Holy Spirit to pray for people and miracles happen. And powered by the Holy Spirit to follow Jesus Christ in the face of persecution. Even though people make fun of you, I still stand strong for Jesus Christ. Now that's a story to tell. Are you a Christ follower? Are you a follower to say, I will stand in faith? I will evangelize, and I would be discipled and disciple others. Now that's a Christ follower. So I end today by asking a question. Will you follow Jesus Christ no matter how easy it is, no matter how difficult it is? What is your resolve?”
41s
“But if we neglect numbers, we neglect what God wants to do because if God says, I want you to evangelize, what is evangelism? It's addition. It's not subtraction, by the way. Okay? Right? It's addition. Maybe even multiplication. Who knows? Right? When God says, go into all the world and preach, what it what does it mean? It means addition. It means multiplication. It's not subtraction or division. When God says, you come out of Egypt and now I want you to count all the people that he he dedicate one whole book and which is the book of numbers. Because God says, I wanna fill heaven up. What does fill heaven up means? At the moment, it means 8,000,000,000 people.”
57s
“Whenever you see the kingdom of god being powerfully moving in the world, you will see an equal movement of the kingdom of darkness actively trying to stop the expansion of the kingdom of God. And that's why sometimes we as Christians, we become timid Because we've allowed the kingdom of darkness to take over our lives, and we have forgotten that we do not belong and we are not shackled to the kingdom of darkness, but we belong to the glorious light. And that our power is to go out into the world and to bring that light out into the world. And therefore, I end my first act by asking you the same question. If a persecution breaks out, if accusations are thrown against you, if people shame and judge you because of your belief, will you still follow Jesus Christ?”
32s
“It doesn't say some of them. It didn't say a few of them. It's all of them were filled with the holy spirit. And here in SIBKL in church, I truly hope my hope is and I my prayer is that all of us here in SIBKL, we are filled with the holy spirit. All, not some. I don't want some. I don't want a few. I want all of us here from the front to the back, from the side to the side. Everyone is filled with the power of the holy spirit because what is the point of life if we are we're not filled with the presence of the almighty God every day. So it started the church started that way.”
35s
“"We are more excited to watch the next movie that come out than we are to hear the Word of God. We are more excited to scroll and doom scroll on social media than to open up our Bibles and to even memorize one scripture. I'm not asking you to memorize one chapter, one scripture. Where is the fear of God? And God says, do you want wisdom? Do you want to know what is right and wrong, good and evil? Then fear Me. Fear Me and I will teach you in your workplace what is right and what is wrong."”
26s
“"If you are going through a difficult time, if you're going through a difficult life, if you feel like you have a life of pain and it's not so easy for you. And some of us sometimes we're asking God, God, why? Why did I lose my job and I lose my marriage in the same year? Why God, did I lose my loved one through death? And then I also had the, I had to lose my child in the same year. Why God? It's so much of pain that I have to go through. Can you not give me some goodness in your life?"”
34s
“"Life will test your wisdom. Life will test your character through pleasure or through pain. There's only two ways about it. And newsflash, everybody will be tested. There is no exception to this rule. Everybody would be tested through pleasures or pain. How I characterize David's life is I believe he lived a life of pain. If you really study his life, he was born a shepherd. He had to really work the fields. He was of no body, no standing."”
34s
“"Character is a sum of your inherent qualities of your thoughts, intentions, desires, and action. The character of a person is the sum of who you are inside, inside your mind, inside your heart, your desires in your soul, the spirit that you carry, that is your character and who you really are. So I sum it up this way. The difference between wisdom and character, in a nutshell, because this is the biblical definition, will be this. Wisdom is knowing what to do. Character is knowing who you are."”
48s
“"His character could not carry his call. His character could not contain, could not carry the call of God on his life. Now what was God's call on his life? Was it to be the richest man? Oh, he would have, excellent, tick. Is it to be the wisest man? Tick. Would it be the most successful man? Tick. But if those were his call, he would have hit it. But what was God's call on Solomon's life? I just revealed, God says, walk in my ways. Obey me. Do not turn to the left or to the right, and I will keep your kingdom from one generation to another."”
27s
“"I want to encourage you before I even start my sermon this morning, that whatever you're going through in your life, it will pass. I pray that we will never place the highest authority and the highest priority on the things of this world that will pass. We came from dust, and we will go into dust one day. But the only thing that should be the highest priority is the one thing that will never pass. And that is the one thing that will never fail."”
