    uh gracious Heavenly Father we are
  • 00:01:37
    honored um and humbled that you would
  • 00:01:40
    listen to us that you would care about
  • 00:01:42
    what we say that you would work so
  • 00:01:44
    diligently to disrupt our plans and put
  • 00:01:47
    your plans in place because you want
  • 00:01:50

  • 00:02:00
    that your angels that excel in strength

  • 00:02:05
    the message that you want us to hear be
  • 00:02:08
    what we hear and that the your humble
  • 00:02:12
    servant here will have the strength he
  • 00:02:13
    needs to present it thank you Father for
  • 00:02:15
    hearing our prayer because we don't pray
  • 00:02:17
    it in our will and in our own strength
  • 00:02:19
    but we pray it in the name of Jesus
  • 00:02:20
    Christ and that his will will be done
  • 00:02:28
    amen I'm gonna
  • 00:02:30
    try to challenge you and be very open
  • 00:02:34
    and very
  • 00:02:35
    honest and I'm not sure you are going to
  • 00:02:38
    like too much what I
  • 00:02:40
    say uh probably is going to be more
  • 00:02:43
    challenging than you like and so if you
  • 00:02:47
    don't like it and you get upset I will
  • 00:02:49
    pray for
  • 00:02:52
    you but I would ask you
  • 00:02:55
    to before trying to judge or make a
  • 00:02:59
    decision in your mind to rather pray
  • 00:03:02
    about it because it's a little different
  • 00:03:06
    from what we do or
  • 00:03:08
    no so what do you pray about when you
  • 00:03:12
    pray have you ever recorded
  • 00:03:16
    yourself let's say one month and just
  • 00:03:20
    listen to your prayers to see what you
  • 00:03:23
    pray did it ever occur to you to do that
  • 00:03:28
    because I recorded about 6 months worth
  • 00:03:30
    of prayers in my family and in one of my
  • 00:03:34
    churches I didn't tell anybody I was
  • 00:03:36
    recording
  • 00:03:38
    [Music]
  • 00:03:40
    them and I erased the recordings I
  • 00:03:43
    recorded listen and then it was in the
  • 00:03:45
    church I recorded them in the church
  • 00:03:47
    public prayer listened to them again and
  • 00:03:50
    then erased it but I learned something
  • 00:03:54
    pretty strange about
  • 00:03:56
    prayers it's a it's an eye opening
  • 00:04:00
    let me give you an example when we moved
  • 00:04:02
    in Maryland I'm I'm going to give you a
  • 00:04:05
    story so you understand what I mean
  • 00:04:07
    because if I tell you don't do this you
  • 00:04:08
    will not agree with
  • 00:04:10

    started Lord be with this evil
  • 00:11:01

  • 00:11:03
    not the way you pray for them pray for
  • 00:11:05
    them as Jesus would pray for them pray
  • 00:11:07
    for them as you would pray for your
  • 00:11:09
    children if your children were lost if
  • 00:11:11
    your children were involved in a car
  • 00:11:12
    accident if your children were in a ER
  • 00:11:14
    dying how would you pray for your
  • 00:11:16
    children so I started to pray a little
  • 00:11:18
    more and this is what happened when I
  • 00:11:21
    started to pray for Neighbors instantly
  • 00:11:23
    they became even more vicious you know
  • 00:11:26
    what I'm talking
  • 00:11:27
    about things didn't go up things start
  • 00:11:30
    to really fast go down and my wife says
  • 00:11:33
    well Satan is not
  • 00:11:36
    afraid of you when you are a good
  • 00:11:39
    Christian you go to church you eat
  • 00:11:42
    broccoli you return your tight you go to
  • 00:11:45
    camp meeting and sing
  • 00:11:47
    Kumbaya but Satan is afraid of you when
  • 00:11:50
    you pray and that's the reason he's
  • 00:11:52
    trying to discourage you you see prayer
  • 00:11:55
    doesn't work since I started to pray
  • 00:11:57
    things go bad you follow me so my wife
  • 00:12:01
    says why don't you pray more I well how
  • 00:12:04
    long should I pray for these neighbors
  • 00:12:05
    they don't deserve
  • 00:12:08
    it don't we think that
  • 00:12:10
    way yeah be honest it's easy to hear to
  • 00:12:13
    my story but you have your stories
  • 00:12:16
    too people that have damaged your life
  • 00:12:19
    people that have done something that has
  • 00:12:21
    affected you people that have criticized
  • 00:12:24
    you people that have fired you people
  • 00:12:25

  • 00:12:38
    that I will never
  • 00:12:41
    forget after 3 years of enduring this
  • 00:12:45
    terrible neighbors and I said let's move
  • 00:12:46
    let's sell the house I got tired let's
  • 00:12:48
    move she says what if God put you here
  • 00:12:52
    for
  • 00:12:54
    them because God loves those people
  • 00:13:00
    they don't know what they do they are
  • 00:13:02
    led by Satan and they have no clue they
  • 00:13:05
    think they are right and they are blind
  • 00:13:08
    totally blind and she says what if God
  • 00:13:11
    put you there for
  • 00:13:12
    them and she said to
  • 00:13:15
    me you cannot have a
  • 00:13:18
    victory before you are willing to be
  • 00:13:20
    like Jesus basically to die for
  • 00:13:23
    them you'll never win somebody that you
  • 00:13:26
    are not willing to die
  • 00:13:27
    for what did I
  • 00:13:30
    say you heard me and she said Jesus was
  • 00:13:35
    willing to Die For You Moses said take
  • 00:13:38
    my name off you know what that means
  • 00:13:41
    would you be willing to give up your
  • 00:13:43
    eternal life for a
  • 00:13:44
    stinker would you
  • 00:13:47
    honestly really think about it Moses did
  • 00:13:51
    that when they wanted to Stone him and
  • 00:13:53
    God says step aside I'm going to destroy
  • 00:13:55
    them Moses said no no no take my name
  • 00:13:58
    off
  • 00:14:00
    Paul says about Israel that was
  • 00:14:02
    following him in every country and
  • 00:14:04
    stoning him and put him in prison and
  • 00:14:06
    wanted him killed Paul says I would
  • 00:14:09
    rather be anatema that in Greek means to
  • 00:14:12
    be cut off from the Tree of Life Paul
  • 00:14:14
    says basically cut my name off and save
  • 00:14:17
    my
  • 00:14:20
    persecutors those that really know
  • 00:14:24
    Jesus they become like
  • 00:14:27
    Jesus
  • 00:14:30
    that's the fiery test so my wife says
  • 00:14:33
    why don't you pray Lord take my life and
  • 00:14:35
    save my
  • 00:14:41
    neighbors would you do that so I went to
  • 00:14:44
    prayer and I didn't have the strength to
  • 00:14:46
    do it and I said Lord I really really
  • 00:14:48
    really would like it to work with them
  • 00:14:50
    but I am not sure I'm willing to say
  • 00:14:52
    this words I was afraid to even say it
  • 00:14:56
    and then God spoke to me and said you
  • 00:14:58
    will never be a Christian before you are
  • 00:15:01
    not willing to lay your life for
  • 00:15:03
    somebody
  • 00:15:07
    else and he didn't say in my mind you'll
  • 00:15:09
    never be a pastor he said in my mind
  • 00:15:11
    you'll never be a
  • 00:15:13
    Christian you cannot be my follower
  • 00:15:16
    unless you do what I
  • 00:15:17
    did so I started to cry and I said
  • 00:15:21
    Lord I Surrender my life I give it to
  • 00:15:24
    you do whatever you want with it take it
  • 00:15:26
    if that's what it takes but give me
  • 00:15:29
    opportunities to reach my
  • 00:15:32
    neighbors after I was willing to
  • 00:15:34
    surrender my life a month later when I
  • 00:15:37
    started to pray that way something
  • 00:15:39
    happened to
  • 00:15:41
    me instead
  • 00:15:43
    of getting stomach pain only by seeing
  • 00:15:47
    them I started to feel sorry for them
  • 00:15:51
    and really started to desire an answer
  • 00:15:54
    to I wanted God to answer I started to
  • 00:15:57
    care I want wanted God to answer my
  • 00:15:59
    prayer I really started to care for them
  • 00:16:02
    I wanted results a month later something
  • 00:16:06
    strange happened after I prayed that way
  • 00:16:08
    when I started to be willing to put my
  • 00:16:11
    life down for my evil neighbors that
  • 00:16:13
    made my life miserable for 3 years one
  • 00:16:17
    day the two dogs of the neighbor the
  • 00:16:20
    evil neighbors escaped and guess where

    Satan and I went there and I gave them
  • 00:16:51
    treats to all four and I bent down and I
  • 00:16:54

  • 00:16:55

  • 00:21:19
    said oh we are so glad you are here you
  • 00:21:21
    are a wonderful
  • 00:21:26
    neighbor and all the the barriers
  • 00:21:29
    disappeared in a
  • 00:21:32
    second oh let me ask you how many times
  • 00:21:36
    do you pray saying
  • 00:21:38
    Lord take my life and save my neighbor
  • 00:21:41
    save my enemy do you pray that
  • 00:21:47
    prayer and we think that we love Jesus
  • 00:21:51
    but John 1 John chapter 4
  • 00:21:55
    says if you don't love your neighbor you
  • 00:21:58
    the love of God is not in you you are a
  • 00:22:01
    liar that's pretty heavy Bible verse
  • 00:22:03
    isn't
  • 00:22:05
    it more than
  • 00:22:08
    that more than that every time I have
  • 00:22:11
    challenges and trust me like everybody
  • 00:22:13
    else I do have
  • 00:22:14
    challenges plenty Satan hates Christians
  • 00:22:19
    Satan even more hates pastors if he can
  • 00:22:22
    get the pastor he can get the church you
  • 00:22:23
    know what I mean he attacks us because
  • 00:22:27
    he's like a li and trying to devour us
  • 00:22:29
    he hates us I have challenges like
  • 00:22:31
    everybody
  • 00:22:34
    else every time I pray asking God for
  • 00:22:38
    help for my
  • 00:22:40
    problems it seems to me that the more I
  • 00:22:43
    pray the more problems I
  • 00:22:45
    have did it ever happen to you just
  • 00:22:47
    honestly you pray and you see no result
  • 00:22:50
    but then you get another problem and
  • 00:22:52
    then you get three more and then you get
  • 00:22:54
    five more and you are buried you
  • 00:22:56
    remember and it seems to me when I
  • 00:23:00
    decide to ignore my problems whatever
  • 00:23:02
    happens happens if I die I die everybody
  • 00:23:04
    dies eventually okay I ignore my
  • 00:23:07
    problems and start praying for other
  • 00:23:09
    people and for their problems it seems
  • 00:23:12
    to me every single time I
  • 00:23:16
    plead interceding for others praying
  • 00:23:19
    earnestly not just Lord be with my
  • 00:23:21
    neighbor Lord be my interceding for them
  • 00:23:23
    as I would pray for myself is very
  • 00:23:26
    strange the more I pray for them
  • 00:23:28
    the more my problems get solved without
  • 00:23:30
    me even addressing them basically I just
  • 00:23:33
    get a phone call it was taken care of
  • 00:23:35
    well I want to go there no need anymore
  • 00:23:37
    Pastor solves I want to
  • 00:23:39
    basically if I care for others God seems
  • 00:23:42
    to care for me without me even worrying
  • 00:23:45
    it you follow
  • 00:23:49
    me has it ever occurred to you that God
  • 00:23:53
    called us to serve not to be
  • 00:23:56
    served and all we do we want to be
  • 00:24:00
    served by people and by God we want to
  • 00:24:02
    be served by our spouses we want to be
  • 00:24:04
    served by God we want to be served by
  • 00:24:05
    people you follow
  • 00:24:07
    me when we go to God In Prayer we ask
  • 00:24:11
    give me this give me that bless me heal
  • 00:24:12
    me save me forgive me my family my
  • 00:24:14
    children my job my health my house my
  • 00:24:17
    whatever there is nothing wrong to ask
  • 00:24:20
    the Bible says that we should cast all
  • 00:24:21
    our needs upon
  • 00:24:23
    him as long as God comes first
  • 00:24:29
    but usually in prayer if you monitor
  • 00:24:30
    your prayers we come
  • 00:24:32
    first number one number two we should
  • 00:24:35
    love God with all our heart all our mind
  • 00:24:37
    all our soul all our strength everything
  • 00:24:38
    we are everything we know all our power
  • 00:24:41
    put God first because whatever you put
  • 00:24:43
    first that's your
  • 00:24:45
    God if you put your needs if you put
  • 00:24:47
    your house if you put your children
  • 00:24:49
    whatever you put before God whatever
  • 00:24:52
    stresses you that's what you worship
  • 00:24:55
    that's your
  • 00:24:55
    idol put God first and then love your
  • 00:24:59
    neighbor just as
  • 00:25:01

    third time and third time I say listen I
  • 00:29:09
    would like to pray for
  • 00:29:11
    you people in our society are very
  • 00:29:15
    stressed moreover in the time we live
  • 00:29:18
    people are extremely stressed and they
  • 00:29:21
    may smile but inside they are
  • 00:29:24
    broken when you offer a prayer very few
  • 00:29:28
    people would refuse it amen we are more
  • 00:29:31
    afraid to pray for them than they are
  • 00:29:33
    afraid to be prayed
  • 00:29:36
    for and so I would say take some
  • 00:29:38
    Tomatoes let me pray for you and I will
  • 00:29:40
    not pray Lord help them repent and
  • 00:29:42
    become Adventist now I would say tell me
  • 00:29:46
    what you are me to pray for and they
  • 00:29:48
    would say always my wife has diabetes my
  • 00:29:50
    wife has cancer I lost my job our kids
  • 00:29:53
    take drugs and I would pray for whatever
  • 00:29:55
    they asked
  • 00:29:58
    that's it and leave after a few months
  • 00:30:02
    it started sometime in July by September
  • 00:30:05
    they all call me the pastor of the
  • 00:30:09
    neighborhood and they all say this is a
  • 00:30:11
    man of God this guy cares nobody cares
  • 00:30:17
    this guy
  • 00:30:19
    cares is that difficult to go with some
  • 00:30:21
    unhealthy cookies to your neighbor and
  • 00:30:23
    say we made cookies we want to share
  • 00:30:25
    them is it difficult
  • 00:30:28
    why don't you do it
  • 00:30:31
    literally imagine if every ahuh I heard
  • 00:30:35
    you if imagine if every SDA member would
  • 00:30:40
    go to the neighbors and share Garden or
  • 00:30:43
    cookies or bread or
  • 00:30:46
    something what message would that
  • 00:30:50
    give in a society that is selfish
  • 00:30:54
    self-centered divided hateful in a a
  • 00:30:57
    society where everybody lives for self
  • 00:31:00
    when you go and listen just for the fact
  • 00:31:02
    that you say what do you want me to pray
  • 00:31:03
    for and listen nobody listens in our
  • 00:31:07
    society nobody has the time or nobody
  • 00:31:10
    cares to listen when you let people talk
  • 00:31:13
    and you just listen and then pray for
  • 00:31:15
    whatever they ask Lord please bless this
  • 00:31:18
    family help them with this
  • 00:31:21
    situation you just pray and say bye
  • 00:31:24
    without any Bible studies without any
  • 00:31:26
    Doctrine s out state of the dead and
  • 00:31:28
    2,300 days and night prophecy those are
  • 00:31:31
    good they are biblical but people are
  • 00:31:34
    not willing to listen before you win
  • 00:31:37
    their
  • 00:31:39
    trust Christ method Alone says elen
  • 00:31:43
    white he would visit them he would
  • 00:31:46
    listen to them he would eat with them he
  • 00:31:49
    would heal them you remember the
  • 00:31:52
    quotation and he would win their
  • 00:31:56
    confidence confidence their trust and
  • 00:31:58
    then he would say follow me she says
  • 00:32:00
    Christ method alone works no other
  • 00:32:03
    method just this one she says not
  • 00:32:07
    everybody I have the quotation here from
  • 00:32:08
    Christian service not everybody could go
  • 00:32:10
    missionary in a foreign land but she
  • 00:32:12
    says everybody that has been converted
  • 00:32:15
    must go in his neighborhood and be a
  • 00:32:18
    missionary and she says those that are
  • 00:32:20
    truly converted are born in God's
  • 00:32:22
    kingdom as missionaries thank you and
  • 00:32:26
    then she says in the same chapter those
  • 00:32:29
    that have been converted they have a
  • 00:32:31
    burning fire a passion in the heart for
  • 00:32:33
    the lost they care for the lost and she
  • 00:32:36
    says those who don't care they have
  • 00:32:38
    never been
  • 00:32:39
    converted hello if you don't care for
  • 00:32:42
    the neighbor you need to be baptized
  • 00:32:44
    again you heard me you you need to
  • 00:32:48
    repent you are not a Christian you
  • 00:32:49
    should not come to
  • 00:32:53
    church I said it and you heard
  • 00:32:59
    it what is the benefit to go to church
  • 00:33:02
    and misrepresent God and the
  • 00:33:05
    church it's a we do a def favor we we
  • 00:33:08
    basically do damage to God's
  • 00:33:12
    name I don't know you I know just a few
  • 00:33:14
    among you but I am talking about me and
  • 00:33:18
    about everybody who wants to take it if
  • 00:33:20
    you want to be a Christian you must show
  • 00:33:23
    Christ character and compassion and love
  • 00:33:26
    to your nebor
  • 00:33:28
    neor that's
  • 00:33:32
    evangelism and that's where it starts if
  • 00:33:35
    every 7 Day Adventist would show
  • 00:33:38
    compassion and care and
  • 00:33:42
    kindness people would be really willing
  • 00:33:44
    to listen to us our church would be
  • 00:33:48
    packed people don't need better
  • 00:33:52
    programs better entertainment better
  • 00:33:54
    music oh if we have better music in our
  • 00:33:56
    church it's good to have better music
  • 00:33:58
    but if they want good programs they turn
  • 00:34:00
    the TV and they find good
  • 00:34:03
    programs what people are looking in a
  • 00:34:05
    church they are looking for God and if
  • 00:34:08
    they find programs but no God they don't
  • 00:34:10
    need a church people need to see God in
  • 00:34:15
    his
  • 00:34:17
    children that's the strongest sermon
  • 00:34:20
    that you can
  • 00:34:23
    [Music]
  • 00:34:25
    give
