So, moving through darkness, dear brothers and sisters, moving through the darkness as I bring this to a close. That's what we must do. We must seek the light as we move through darkness. You must follow the light and you must share the light. There will be and that's why I like interesting about this is is a illustration or to me or an analogy how we come to god and people come to god in their darkest moments. But we must make sure we seek the light and continue to put our faith and trust in god. Amen? Amen. Let's pray. Father, we thank you for this opportunity to gather together.

So, please understand this dear brothers and sisters, what Jesus was doing with Nicodemus was helping this man expand the theology by giving him revelation. Come on. Nicodemus, dear brothers and sisters, had information but he did not have revelation. I said this a little bit on Sunday. What is messing a lot of people up is not information, it is revelation. You can get information off a chat, GPT. Come on. You can get information by asking your friends. But you need revelation to really change and move your life to where it is that god wants it to be.

The fact that he created the world, created the Earth, but yet still desires to keep a relationship going with you is an awesome thing, dear brothers and sisters. And his majesty surrounds us whether we are in prayer, when we are in worship, or we simply reflecting on his goodness. His presence should bring you peace. It should bring you joy and it should bring you assurance that we are never alone. [00:29:31] (31 seconds)  #GodsPresencePeace Download clip

so you can have plenty of money but it does not change the fact that you are still a sinner in need of a savior. Your money can buy many things in this world but it can't buy you nothing in heaven. Come on. Money can buy everything but it can't buy you into heaven. Come on. And what we have to understand is that many people think that they can be good enough or do enough and it will guarantee them access into heaven.

So, the kingdom of god is not when we get to heaven. Come on. So, the kingdom of god is us walking out. Come on and the authority that god has given us with the power of Jesus inside of us. Come on. Amen. So, where we walk, where we talk, where we go, or whatnot, we take Christ with us. Amen? [00:13:43] (24 seconds)  #KingdomInAction Download clip

And the gist of this and the reason why I call this moving through the through the darkness is because Jesus, I mean, Nicodemus comes to Jesus at night. Come on. So, he is moving through the darkness of the night to get a better understanding of who Jesus is and that made me think that sometimes and you know, when in our darkest hour, that's when we really find out who god is. In our darkest hours, in our weakest moment, we really get a true revelation of who god is because you know, we pray more when we're going through.

Come on. And what messes a lot of people up is that they they want the kingdom of god but they don't want his rules. They want the blessings of god. But they don't want the requirements to keep the blessings. Come on. And that's what messes a lot of people up. Dear brothers and sisters, is is is that they want certain things but they don't want the requirements with it. [00:15:50] (33 seconds)  #BlessingsRequireObedience Download clip

He is a man. Let me say that again. They had wealth. He had power but he also went to church. He was also a man that tried the best he could to practice the religious principles and the religious practices of that day but yet, he is a man that had an itch that watch this, his money and his power could not scratch.
