Change Series - Part 1: Do You Really Want Change? (The Unsexiness of Change) | Andy Yeoh · Generations Church

• 0:01
  Hey, you welcome to the Generation's Church podcast. We pray you will be
• 0:05
  blessed by this message. Today I made a word of God both encouraged and
• 0:09
  challenge you to be all God purpose you to be. Now, let's dive
• 0:12
  right in. Change will cost you. It will cost you. He's now
• 0:19
  half poorer, not just half, He's more than half poorer, because he
• 0:24
  gave half of his goods away, and then those he gave four times more.
• 0:28
  So it's a lot less richer than he was before. And I know
• 0:32
  you can take my next statement and do a geological study and maybe find it
• 0:35
  to be unbiblical. I don't know. Maybe it's by at least logical.
• 0:40
  So I'll just say, if you have experience changed and he has not cost
• 0:45
  you yet, maybe you haven't changed all elephants in my mind. Now this
• 0:51
  is a you. Some of you have changed church. You've come here.
• 0:56
  Has it cost you yet? Because it haven't cost you? You've just changed
• 1:00
  addressed. Oh can begeme more real. You've just changed seats, you said
• 1:06
  in it. Oh you can choose to be happy. He is it it?
• 1:08
  Oh my gosh, you'll be happy. Don't worry again. You just
• 1:12
  change seats. Change day of meeting. It used to be Sunday morning,
• 1:18
  now Saturday after day. It what's the big difference? Man? If it
• 1:19
  hasn't cost you yet, maybe a change hasn't really happened. Maybe you're like
• 1:26
  the sexy of change. But change has un sexy side too, Because when
• 1:30
  when Zach started meeting Jesus, I don't think he's like, Okay, I'm
• 1:34
  gonna meet Jesus and after this I'll be porter. I don't think he planned
• 1:38
  that. I don't think he knew that. All he knew was this Jesus
• 1:44
  guy. He changes life. He brings miraculous into my mundane life. He
• 1:51
  makes a difference in my life. He just he knew that. He knew
• 1:53
  he needs to meet Jesus. He knew he needs to make make a change.
• 1:56
  He knew exactly what until he met Jesus and he realized, you know
• 1:57
  what, I'm not gotta give all this stuff that used to hold me down
• 2:01
  away, this thing called money that used to like it and still to get
• 2:07
  I gotta give it away now because this is no longer my lord, this
• 2:10
  is no longer my master. Change will cost you. I wanted to really
• 2:16
  think deeply about that has changed hea, have you been paying the costs for
• 2:23
  change? Or it's just a little too comfortable at the moment. Got to
• 2:31
  really think deeply about that. Real change will cost you. I know it
• 2:35
  may not be money, but you'll cost you something. It'll cost your time.
• 2:39
  Or how about this, Maybe it'll cost you your trust again? Maybe
• 2:43
  you are funny really hard to trust again, Trust your leadership, trust your
• 2:49
  neighbor. He said, good to see me around already he really, you
• 2:53
  know, really wanted to see me. There were no more seats, so
• 2:55
  he sat next to me. Now he's got to say I smell good.
• 3:00
  I know I don't smell good. Whatever. Okay, I'm just being funny
• 3:05
  now right, But hey, change will cost you? Has it cost you
• 3:08
  yet? Because if hand costs you, maybe change, real change hasn't happened.
• 3:14
  We will. We will do this all over again because we know where
• 3:16
  God has led us, and this is where God wants us to be.
• 3:20
  Way too many miracles and confirmations to look back and go a regret, no
• 3:23
  regrets. But it will cost you because if hant cost you yet, maybe
• 3:29
  hasn't. You haven't changed and you say you want change, I'm not just
• 3:32
  talking about changing address, changing seats. You get me a changing brand.
• 3:38
  That's the sexy part. There's a sexy pot up the Instagram. Oh new
• 3:43
  profile? Hey, why is that line? Nothing? A course, you
• 3:50
  just trust again. You have to trust again, which means anytime you talk
• 3:53
  about trust, there's always the risk of your heart being broken one more time.
• 4:00
  I don't think we can avoid being hurt. There is no way the
• 4:05
  people who love you will ever be able to not hurt you. No freaking
• 4:11
  way. You will be hurt. In fact, that's how you know someone
• 4:15
  loves you. This pain is real. It's a very different thing than harming
• 4:18
  you. If I hurt you, I hold you. No, I'm human.
• 4:23
  If I harm you, I'm a very bad human. Run away rich
• 4:28
  loving parent will harm their children, but proceed set traps so they'll step on
• 4:32
  glass. No one does that. But will parents hurt their children of course,
• 4:38
  like when the child wants to play one more hour of Mobile Legends and
• 4:42
  the mom says no. The child gets hurt. Oh you don't love me,
• 4:46
  all kind of strong wads and you don't love me. You don't care
• 4:47
  about me. No, no, no, no, I care about you.
• 4:49
  That's why I have to hurt you by way holding these privilege for not
• 4:53
  you get what I'm saying right. Hurt is part of relationships and community.
• 5:00
  Just learn the difficiate between harm and hurt. If people harm you, that's
• 5:05
  bad. Run away people hurt you normal. We have to find a new
• 5:12
  way to deal with hurts. Forgive better, say sorry, quicker, have
• 5:17
  more open communication, be more understanding, give a benefit of doubt. All
• 5:23
  those things you hear guru say, but don't practice but poorly for now the
• 5:28
  way. Okay, change will cost you. You want change? Change your
• 5:31
  cost you number two. Change will be uncomfortable. So in the same energy.
• 5:38
  If you have been very comfortable, you haven't fully changed yet. You
• 5:44
  move into a new house sometimes can be so comfortable you don't unpack your box
• 5:48
  because that's all you know. Resetting everything. So you bought a new house,
• 5:56
  but you haven't made a home. Changing company is changing addresses. Changing
• 6:01
  church is the same thing. You've changed home and you changed houses. Have
• 6:06
  you made it a home, because it'll be uncomfortable if you do. Zechists
• 6:11
  look at chapter nineteen, verse four. I believe for three verse four,
• 6:15
  and he sat to see who Jesus was. He wanted to change, but
• 6:16
  he could not because he's shot and you know, so what he do he
• 6:20
  has to run quicker than everybody, climb up higher than anybody. And there's
• 6:25
  a lot of discomfort. It's a lot of work. So I want to
• 6:28
  caution us. If we've been too comfortable sitting in this it's not peels but
• 6:32
  these nice coat chairs. If we've been too comfortable, and you know what,
• 6:38
  it's been seven months, it's time to grow, time to really change.
• 6:47
  Don't get scared. I'm not asking you to not every night a meeting.
• 6:51
  You know, can your sign of a fifteen ministry? We don't even
• 6:55
  have fifteen ministry? How to sign up? You know, I'm asking you
• 6:58
  to do all that. Don't worry where I want to shift my house,
• 7:01
  shift a new house, new Taman, new town, just to do everything
• 7:05
  same, of course, not so don't worry. But let's be real.
• 7:11
  If things are too comfortable, we haven't changed. So if you really want
• 7:15
  change, we really want God to refresh you and give you a new breath
• 7:21
  of life. We need to be willing to be uncomfortable. Because Zakias did
• 7:27
  that, he was a number or Kanama and a viph could have taken the
• 7:32
  front seat if he wanted to chief text collector that turns three. I don't
• 7:39
  know what his surname, whatever his title was. He could have, but
• 7:44
  this was left in the story to show us change is uncomfortable. Number three.
• 7:49
  Change will cut us. There will be some severing, there will be
• 7:54
  some cutting away. There'll be things that need to be get get gotten rid
• 7:58
  off, real change. You can't work for a new company with your old
• 8:03
  company mindset. Oh begging my whole officer. I can take the pencil wherever
• 8:07
  I want, knowing to return us. All I can photo that my church
• 8:11
  song sheets just be the worst. You know already photo saying the song sheet
• 8:16
  is ready copyright infringement. You can use a company want to photo says the
• 8:20
  more for all of your worship ministry. One hundred fet people. Worse people
• 8:28
  are do you nobody. There needs to be some severing, cut off.
• 8:33
  We will deal with them in the coming weeks. Some things to be like
• 8:39
  us. Allow Jesus the greatest surgeon, to remove those things. The extra
• 8:46
  humor, you know that, the extra cancerous whatever thing rose hurt and bitterness
• 8:54
  cut cut cut, look nineteen verse eight to nine. Then he's like your
• 9:00
  students said, Lord, look, I give how my goods to the poor.
• 9:03
  And if I have taken anything from anyone by false accusation, so he's
• 9:05
  taken. He's carried something with him all his life that he should not have
• 9:11
  had. Stuff he stole, stuff he carried along his whole life. You
• 9:16
  know what I'm saying, There is a last time want money, he only
• 9:20
  got bad ways to get it. He wants he wants something he only got
• 9:26
  unhealthy and why it is bad silly ways to get it. Get sam.
• 9:30
  I'm saying that is mindset. There is deep internal stuff that needs to be
• 9:37
  cut off, cut off, whatever it takes to cut that off. Some
• 9:43
  of us have to go through counseling, someone to go to therapy, Some
• 9:46
  have the prayer deliverance or whatever. I don't know. Someone have to go
• 9:48
  to fasting and prayer, whatever it takes. Those things cannot be carried forward.
• 9:54
  He applies to companies, to applies to marriage to we all carry baggage
• 9:58
  from our bringing in our history, and that we move into marriage and then
• 10:03
  we expect everything to be work the way it's supposed to work, supposed to
• 10:09
  work according to my family tradition and right. And that's why we klashma.
• 10:15
  No that has to be gotten rid off too, and exact, Yes,
• 10:18
  has to give away, cut away the things that used to define him,
• 10:24
  they used to give him identity. I am filthy rich, Yes, filthy
• 10:28
  rich. He has to get you of the filthy. And we all have
• 10:33
  filthy bro And says, we all have filty. Right, we've all heard,
• 10:37
  we've all been hurt, we've all been disappointed, we all have had
• 10:39
  experienced failure. Here there, do you really want change? It cost you,
• 10:46
  It will be uncomfortable, it will cut you. Look five thirty seven
• 10:50
  to thirty nine, and no one puts new wine into all wine skins or
• 10:58
  else the new wine will burn the wine skins and be spilled, and the
• 11:01
  wine skins will be ruined. But new wine must be put into new wine
• 11:07
  skins and both are preserved. And no one, having drunk old wine,
• 11:11
  immediately desires new for he says the old is better. Don't say it won't
• 11:18
  happen to me. Because three million people called the Israelites were saved and delivered
• 11:24
  from slavery. Slavery, you understand, they didn't used to own their life.
• 11:30
  Their life used to be owned by some foreigners. They told them what
• 11:33
  they could and could not do. They are now free and complaining about going
• 11:37
  back. So, yes, it will happen, even to the best of
• 11:41
  us. I'm just calling it out together because we're gonna deal with this together.
• 11:46
  We want to live healthy. Live healthy means healthy emotions, healthy spirit,
• 11:52
  healthy mind means whatever cancerous tumor, virus, bacteria, germ de taxla.
• 12:00
  Amen. Change will cost you, change will be uncomfortable, change will
• 12:05
  cut you. God is pouring new wine. He wants to do a new
• 12:09
  thing. He wants to do a new thing. Amen, not just in
• 12:13
  this one church. In his church is his church, his body. And
• 12:18
  I believe he has seen all the mess we have created as human beings,
• 12:24
  and he wants he's his church. So he wants to pull out a new
• 12:26
  spirit, a new wine, a new annoying thing. But we cannot have
• 12:31
  all minds, old hearts, always all wine skins. Amen number four.
• 12:39
  If you really want change, briefing paid for critics and criticisms, Verse seven
• 12:46
  of chapter nineteen. When they saw it, they all complained, saying,
• 12:48
  he has gone to be a guest with a man who is a sinner.
• 12:52
  This always happened. There's always this fall letter word th e y. They
• 12:58
  they won't understand. They will always criticize. There is way that be aware
• 13:05
  of the day. There's always a day when we want to change. Not
• 13:09
  everybody understands the change that we want. I don't think the other text collectors
• 13:16
  understood why's that case is giving money away? I don't think the understood why
• 13:20
  what's happening? What's so cool? What is Jesus? I mean one time,
• 13:24
  come to your house, one time try you are giving money away?
• 13:26
  Whoa what? What? What? There will always be critics and criticisms.
• 13:31
  Some you will choose to hear and pick the good. Because we want to
• 13:37
  learn. We won't learn right. There's a lot of it. You just
• 13:41
  got to not bother. You just got to keep your heart healthy. Amen.
• 13:46
  You want change and God wants to bring changed. That's why you're here.
• 13:48
  That's why you're here. And don't even just be in church. You're
• 13:52
  here in your job, wherever you are. You're here in your marriage,
• 13:54
  that in the place. You're here in your life, your personal life.
• 13:58
  Maybe a few months before this, you're not in a very good emotional space,
• 14:01
  but now you're you're doing something about it. Maybe you're beginning to talk
• 14:05
  to someone about it, and that's healthy. And that place you're in right
• 14:09
  now, there's a reason for that, because God wants to put in new
• 14:13
  wine, new blessings. Way too quiet, guys, Okay, go ahead,
• 14:18
  man, come on, I'm talking about wine. Who are also quired?
• 14:26
  Who? Amen? There would be critics because uh, if no critics,
• 14:31
  are you used to got as yourself? Have you really changed? If
• 14:37
  it doesn't cost you, have you really changed? If you're not uncomfortable,
• 14:41
  it means you're not growing. Have you really changed? If things are not
• 14:46
  cut away, if you don't stop talking like you used to, stop thinking
• 14:50
  that, you used to start doing that, you used to start living at
• 14:52
  used to and those things are not cut away, have you really changed?
• 14:58
  Or are we just here having changed seats and change address. That's not real
• 15:01
  change. And so be ready for the talk, the criticisms and the critics.
• 15:11
  Friends. Actually, change is inevitable. It will happen with or without
• 15:16
  you, whether you want it or not. And change is necessary for growth
• 15:22
  and progress. Amen. If your muscles to be bigger, your muscle,
• 15:26
  when it's bigger, it's not the same size as it was before. That's
• 15:28
  change. You want growth, you want progress, Expect change. But change
• 15:33
  is inevitable. The world wild moved on with or without you. The question
• 15:39
  we got ask ourself is are we changing and growing for better or for worse?
• 15:45
  Because you can change for the worst. You can become a very unrecognizable,
• 15:48
  unpleasant person to be around, or you can be a better person to
• 15:54
  be around, not a better person to be around. Amen. You know
• 15:58
  when I was in school, i'mary in school SMK lost s r K last
• 16:03
  a clang. I was in let me see, yeah, I was in
• 16:06
  the yellow house, Leo. They call it yellow house. But that year
• 16:11
  yellow house was the last house in our spots, and I thought, you
• 16:15
  know what, this cannot be my legacy. I was only in standing one.
• 16:18
  Don't tell me I'm going to be last the rest of my life aut
• 16:21
  no way. The next year I found a way to cheat the system and
• 16:26
  change my house to red house. I went to I went, changing myself
• 16:33
  red house for the rest of my school year. Last place I changed.
• 16:40
  I don't whether I'm the cause or not, but first yell pray was number
• 16:45
  one when I changed the last last, last, last, last, last
• 16:48
  last, So change would change. Why are you changing for better? Orfers,
• 16:53
  that's important a man. So three things I want to address if we
• 16:59
  really one change, and we're willing to even embrace the un sexy side of
• 17:03
  change, the cause, the discomfort, the cutting away, criticisms, treatings.
• 17:11
  Number One, cause is there a need for change? Sometimes there's no
• 17:17
  reason to change. There's no cause. There's no real good reason. I
• 17:19
  don't change phone. Why it's new? There's not. I mean, we
• 17:26
  all know, there's not real. It's not need. We say I need
• 17:30
  a new iPhone fifteen? No, no, you want you want a new
• 17:36
  iPhone fifteen or you want So we gotta ask ourselves because you simply change around
• 17:41
  like I change house. You can mess things up. So is there a
• 17:45
  real cause? Is there a real need? Or is it just a popular
• 17:48
  thing to do? Hey, friends, what is popular might not be right,
• 17:53
  and what is right might not be popular. Number One, we could
• 17:59
  ask ourselves, is there a cause? I have a cause to change?
• 18:04
  It's a good cause. I shed these two weeks ago. Why generations church?
• 18:08
  Why? And the other church? Because God wants us to reach the
• 18:11
  whole world and not there's not enough churches to do it, and so we
• 18:15
  just want to play our part. Yeah, Like you know, there are
• 18:19
  some people I just can't reach, like my young people. I don't blame
• 18:22
  my jone. You give me the putzel guys, okay, ken, So
• 18:26
  we all reach different people? And why generation church? Why why starting other
• 18:30
  church among a billion churches everywhere, so that we can play our part to
• 18:36
  finish the great commission. So I told everyone in the attendants, we past
• 18:40
  us in the crowd, I say, we are generations Church, we are
• 18:41
  your friends. We're here to work together. Right. So I have a
• 18:45
  cause and we want to reach the next generation because they are very easily forgotten
• 18:49
  and sometimes not many people know how to do it. And God has given
• 18:53
  us a grace to do it and to do it together with the family.
• 18:56
  So it's not just young people and exclusively young people, but to with the
• 19:00
  families. Amen. So is there a cause? Yes, this is our
• 19:03
  cause. I have break enough a reason to make this crazy change. So
• 19:10
  whatever change you think you are making or want to make or have made,
• 19:15
  answer this first question? Is the need? Or is this just a one?
• 19:18
  This is just a sexy thing? Is this just a popular thing?
• 19:22
  Because this will this will be the this will be the thing that will keep
• 19:26
  you together in the tough time when things are costing you and things get uncomfortable.
• 19:32
  And things get being cut away from you, and and the criticisms come.
• 19:37
  Oh mind when they come from all directions, WhatsApp, Facebook, twit
• 19:41
  turn our threats to and you hear things and all the as are coming.
• 19:47
  You need to go back to the cause because that one, that one informs
• 19:52
  you whether it's worth it, despite the cause, despite the discomfort, despite
• 19:57
  the cutting, despite all this, Cristians, it's worth it because the cause
• 20:00
  is bigger than me. It's not about me, Amen. Number two,
• 20:07
  change needs a catalyst. There needs to be a catalyst. Someone needs to
• 20:15
  someone needs to initiate it. Unless I start moving there there is no follow
• 20:23
  up, there's no follow through. Someone has to make the move. Someone
• 20:26
  has to decide and say, okay, I mean a pay the price,
• 20:33
  be uncomfortable, and then you take a first step. Catalyst. Change begins
• 20:37
  with someone. Change begins with you, with me, with us. But
• 20:41
  a catalyst is a personal thing that causes change. Whatever decisions you make today
• 20:48
  in this lifetime, in this season is going to be the catalyst for your
• 20:51
  future. But you gotta move today, amen, after you know what the
• 20:56
  cause is. Yes, there is a cause. It is no matter how
• 21:00
  it gets one day, It's worth it, and our will be the catalysts.
• 21:04
  People want change, but you want other people to pay catalysts. Right
• 21:07
  are you? You pay the price? You you you cannot embark. I
• 21:11
  just come. But catalyst change begins with somebody. The vessel. The vessel
• 21:18
  is the wine skin. Change. New wine skin cannot just be pought on
• 21:23
  the ground and put everywhere we waste it. You need to be poured into
• 21:27
  a vessel, a channel, something that will then later pour out into another
• 21:33
  glass somewhere else, a channel someone that carries this change, this message,
• 21:41
  this value. You're okay, so far good. The young people, you
• 21:45
  understand, I'm too deep. Okay, your prefer when a preci You've just
• 21:48
  okay, new wine in new wine skin. The vessel has to change.
• 21:56
  We are the vessels. We need God to renew us. Somebody say,
• 22:00
  amen, Romans twelve US two, do not be conformed to this world,
• 22:07
  but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. I'll probably address this next
• 22:14
  week about the mind. This one needs to go first. This needs to
• 22:18
  be renewed first. The Bible says, don't don't conformed, transform, How
• 22:25
  renew your mind that you may prove what is that good and acceptable? And
• 22:30
  perfect will of God. Friends, if you're not transforming, then you're conforming.
• 22:38
  I don't want it happening. At any given time, you're either becoming
• 22:42
  something else or you're becoming like someone else. You're either transforming or you're conforming.
• 22:48
  You need to choose to be the influence or to be influenced, because
• 22:56
  if you want to influence, and the words you think can come already.
• 22:57
  If you want to influence, then you got to be transformed. You transform
• 23:04
  beginning with your mind. Otherwise you'll be conforming. You're being influenced, You're
• 23:10
  just gonna fit in. So so, conforming is to blend in, become
• 23:15
  like just blending, mit room, Okay, blending become I wish I had
• 23:22
  that might now where you know, there's a I just learned to read.
• 23:26
  There's a switch where you can switch, and then you can say something through
• 23:27
  the mind only they can hear, and then you're cannot hear. Quite cool,
• 23:30
  right, we'll get it one day. Conform is to blending, to
• 23:33
  become like everyone else, just blending. After a while you get found out.
• 23:41
  But God wants us to be transformed, to become something else, something
• 23:45
  else. The word transform actually means to change substance, the very substance.
• 23:51
  That's why the Bible causes a new creation. Do you know the Bible doesn't
• 23:55
  call you just a better version of your old old You know? The Bible
• 23:59
  says you are new creation, brand new. When Christ gets ahold of you,
• 24:03
  when he saves you by his grace, he pours new wine, new
• 24:08
  life into you, you become a new creation. New creation means new mind,
• 24:11
  new heart. That's what I want all of us to have henceforth.
• 24:18
  If it wasn't before, then let's all go. Change is the only constant.
• 24:23
  If you're not changing, you're not growing. The fact is we are
• 24:29
  changing and being changed day by day, even if we don't realize it.
• 24:32
  The question is what or who is changing us, and what or who we
• 24:37
  are changing ourselves into. Amen. So Geasians two twenty says, I have
• 24:41
  been crucified with Christ. Is no longer I who live, but Christ lives
• 24:48
  in me, and the life which I now live I live now live in
• 24:52
  the flesh. I live by faith the son of God who loved me and
• 24:56
  gave himself for me. So change comes on the inside. So we all
• 25:02
  got to determine our attitudes, and our attitudes will determine our future. You
• 25:08
  cannot determine your future. You cannot determine what happens tomorrow. You can only
• 25:12
  determine what attitudes you want to have. How you wake up every day,
• 25:17
  how you go to sleep, how you treat people, how you treat the
• 25:19
  people closest to you, how you treat people not close to you, how
• 25:22
  you treat the people who have hurt you and backstep you and forgot your birthday,
• 25:26
  and how you treat them. You determine your attitudes, and your attitudes
• 25:33
  determine your future. What next year will look like will be the sum of
• 25:41
  your attitudes today. Amen, The words that you speak, the words that
• 25:45
  you don't speak, the mind that you have, and the mind you choose
• 25:52
  to no longer have change. You determine your attitudes and your edited in your
• 26:00
  future to change the world, which, by the way, is what we're
• 26:06
  here to do. Otherwise this is a waste of everyone's time. We're here
• 26:12
  to change the world. It doesn't have to be all two hundred over countries.
• 26:15
  I don't mean that, I mean just change the world around you.
• 26:18
  I mean walking to your office, and your office should be a new place,
• 26:22
  a better place. Walk to your classroom, and it should change.
• 26:26
  We're here to change the world. Otherwise, why waste time? But to
• 26:30
  change the world, we need to be changed. We are that vessel.
• 26:34
  Change needs a cause, Change needs change needs a channel. How does God
• 26:41
  bring change into the world through the channel? You are the channel. And
• 26:44
  if you are a corrupted, filthy, blocked bet the channel and it's not
• 26:48
  done a very good change. Your office will be affected, your families will
• 26:52
  be affected, your school will be affected. We need to change, Amen,
• 26:57
  And we can change the world if we give more than we take,
• 27:02
  love more than we hate, think before we act, and act before it's
• 27:07
  too late. We can change the world if we give more than we take,
• 27:14
  love more than we hate, think before we act, and act before
• 27:18
  it's too late. Amen. If you want to make a difference, give
• 27:21
  spad change. You can make a difference. If you want to make the
• 27:25
  difference, give until you are change. Give to your change. Otherwise continue
• 27:32
  giving speed change. You make a difference. But you want to make the
• 27:33
  difference, We've gotta give of not just one ear, just give until you
• 27:40
  are changed. Change the world. Mother phrase. I said this. It
• 27:45
  is difficult to give Jesus to the people unless we have Jesus in our hearts.
• 27:49
  You can give what you don't have. Amen, hallelujah. So I
• 27:55
  speak from a heart of a shepherd, father, pastor friend. I think
• 28:03
  it's just critical that we don't just change address and seats, we change us.
• 28:10
  And I really believe God wants to do something very significant, very new,
• 28:17
  very powerful in all of our lives. And you will have an impact
• 28:19
  on your individual life. You have an impact in our corporate life. I
• 28:23
  really believe that. But I just sense like, ah, sometimes it hasn't
• 28:32
  happened yet, because we've got all these these comforts that we don't want to
• 28:36
  let go of, and we say we want change, but we are not
• 28:40
  ready for the costs. We are ready for the costs. We won't change
• 28:45
  what. We can't handle the criticisms. But I go back to the cause.
• 28:49
  Is there a cause? Yes, it's worth it. Yes, God
• 28:56
  needs one, a catalyst, a channel. Am I it sure? In
• 29:00
  some small way? God, if you choose to use me, why not?
• 29:03
  God? Amen? So God want to use you too. You're not
• 29:10
  in your office, on your college, or your family by accident. God
• 29:14
  placed you there. God placed you there. You don't want to be a
• 29:18
  bitter route You don't want to be a toxin. Amen. Thank you for
• 29:23
  joining us. We trust you have been blessed by the word of God.
