34 “Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword.
We must realize we will be persecuted for our beliefs they must be as strong as ever
Then goto Daniel 2 the beginning of the chapter
Explain what is going on in daniel 2
Neb wants to know the truth in the dream and what it was.
11 It is a difficult thing that the king requests, and there is no other who can tell it to the king except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.”
They explain the situation and in verse 16 daniel has this response. So he goes back to his friends and they pray. They get the interpretation. One we see backwards and forwards. So they see the same image nebbecenezzer saw. We know this statue
16 So Daniel went in and asked the king to give him time, that he might tell the king the interpretation.
Babylon represents the head of Gold, Medo-Persia-the chest and arms of silver, Greece the belly and thighs of brass. Time as the legs of iron. Division of Rome the feet of iron and clay. Smaller kingdoms. The great stone then is Gods eternal Kingdom. The stone is the kingdom of God that takes out the feet. Never will go away. But you see we always look at that. 2:27. We always look at the image! That isn’t the meat of this chapter. Let’s go back and see what we missed.
27 Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, “The secret which the king has demanded, the wise men, the astrologers, the magicians, and the soothsayers cannot declare to the king.
Gods kingdom will never be destroyed. Praise the Lord for that. But That is the surface of this chapter. Let’s go back and take a look. Tell the story of the Hebrew boys in a foreign country with a strange diet.They are representing Gods people in the last days. We are special people because we are not of this world. We are out of it but not of it. Just like Daniel and his friends we are required by God to believe things that hardly anybody else believes. They were taking from their families as boy and now they have been turned into young men eunuchs. So they show how much faith they have in God but not eating the Kong’s diet because they don’t eat meat. So they do the ten day challenge and they are healthier than those who eat the Kings diet and we learn this in daniel 1.
Then daniel 1
Talk about what happens in daniel 1
Let’s go back to daniel chapter 2
During the last days we have to deal with Satan is always trying to convince us that he wins and God loses. Some Christians who get cancer don’t heal and die. Sabbath keepers lose their jobs. Some of us have bad kids. Many tithe payers are short on money. When airplanes crash Christians and non Christians both die. We have to live with that. In Babylon, Gods people had been conquered by heathens. People who sin, drink and smoke. Gods people and armies were defeated. Gods temple was destroyed and these Hebrew boys have been taken into Babylon when Satan is winning and God is losing. You see I’ve read my Bible and there will be persecution. What‘a it going to be like when you can’t come to this beautiful building to worship anymore? What is going to happen If you lose your house or your job?
12 Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.
This is a promise that Gods people will suffer persecution. Will you trust God in the trust.
You see what this is all about and daniel 2 is what are we going to do in the stress. You see in daniel 1 they are promoted but they are still different than everybody else. So when word gets to the wise men the word doesn’t get to daniel and his friends. So then the king neb says he’s going to chop them into pieces. They would take a human being alive and just start chopping them up with these special hatchets to do so. Can you imagine how terrible this is. This is what neb is promising will happen if the wise men don’t reveal the dream and interrupt.
Let’s look at some historical persecution
What does it mean to be a martyr? The word “martyr” in Greek means “witness.” A martyr is a witness for Christ. The martyr is one who follows Christ and wants to follow Him to the end and imitate Him in everything He did. The high point of martyrdom, of course, is when a Christian, because of closeness to Christ, is willing to die as Christ did in His passion, in His death, in hope of rising again with Him. It is significant that in the letter from Christians at Lyon-which tells us about the death and martyrdom of Christians at this place-they report that quite often, through the sufferings of their brothers and sisters, they saw Christ.
In fact in our own 20th century there have been far more martyrs for the Christian faith than in the first 300 years.
Today in at least dozens of nations, Christian believers are prohibited from propagating their beliefs, and in many of these countries they face persecution, imprisonment, and even death
February 23, 303, the festival of the god Terminus, was the date chosen to commence the termination of Christianity. Edicts were published, decreeing that: Christians holding public office were to be put out; All accusations against Christians were to be received; They were to be tortured; Their scriptures confiscated and burned; The church buildings to be destroyed; Their civil rights of Christians denied; Presidents, bishops and leaders of churches were to be arrested and compelled to sacrifice to the gods.
Wild beasts, burnings, stabbings, crucifixions, the rack—all the reliable methods of torture were mercilessly employed.
Many Christians gave in. Yet, many others refused. We don’t know how many, but can safely say that multiple thousands were killed or permanently maimed. And in some areas the persecution lasted eight years.
It was a life and death struggle of Christianity versus paganism. Yet the carnage was so great and so ineffective that both people and rulers just seemed to sicken of this prolonged massacre.They had used all their might against an unarmed opponent that simply refused to die. And this opponent was not an outside invader trying to conquer them. No, it was just their own people trying to live in quietness.Tired of it all, on April 30, 311, shortly before his death, weak and diseased, none other than Galerius, the instigator, issued an Edict of Toleration. In it he declared: “Christians may exist again, and may establish their meeting houses.” And he added that because of his gracious indulgence, it was the duty of the Christians “to pray to their god for our good estate, and that of the state . . . that the commonwealth may endure on every side unharmed.”That was the turning point. Constantine came to the throne. Under him, in 313, the Edict of Milan was sent forth to “ . . . grant both the Christians and to all others full authority to follow whatever worship each man has desired.”In the decades that followed, Christianity would gradually become established as the official faith of the Roman Empire, and that would bring challenges and temptations of a different kind. I’m back now in the Garden of Gethsemane, and look at this. From here you’re able to see the pinnacle of the temple wall. That’s where Jesus at the beginning of His ministry, was tempted by Satan to cast himself down and be miraculously delivered. To do that would have been to build his ministry on the spectacular, on demonstrations of human power. But he chose instead to build his ministry on love, sacrifice, and service. In the generations since, the church has been faced with the same choice. And the question always is the same. Will the church follow the path of worldly power and influence, or will it say, as Jesus said to His Father in this quiet place: “Not my will but thine be done.”
So I ask you Where was God when Christians were being burned at the stake and torn up by lions on the coliseum. Where was God when my father died and I was out playing music. Where was God when your son died in a car wreck by a drunk driver. Where was God when your daughter or parents over dosed and died or had a heart attack like my father and died? Where was God then? Are you listening? You see I’m not here to answer that question as I’m leaving it with you.faith in God is not faith until you don’t have answerS. Repeat it. If you have answers you don’t need faith. The Bible is clear. The statement is clear. The just shall live by faith. Habbakak tell us this.
17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”
and many other places in the Bible it is a clear. The just shall live by faith! I can’t explain where God was when my father died. I know he was in heaven and I know he was watching. But I don’t have the answers. I’m leaving my will and faith in the hands of God.
So let’s look at exodus chapter 14 quickly and come back
13 And Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever. 14 The Lord will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.” 15 And the Lord said to Moses, “Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward. 16 But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.
and EGW
Everything that has happened to daniel and his friends in babylon is not going well. The wicked are winning. His country has been destroyed, the temple destroyed, the kings eyes were taken out and he was killed, family was destroyed, home destroyed. Nothing is going right. So I believe it’s impressive when Arioch comes and tells him what is going on that the Bible is very clear on what Daniel does. In verse 2:18 of daniel let’s read. He prays. But you know it gets even better than that. In verse 19 I get so excited.
18 that they might seek mercies from the God of heaven concerning this secret, so that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon. 19 Then the secret was revealed to Daniel in a night vision. So Daniel blessed the God of heaven.
Secret was revealed in a night vision or a dream. If you are dreaming you are????
If you are dreaming you are ???
Sleeping!!!!! They went to sleep. As a top servant of Babylon. As a council to the king you have seen people chopped up and houses turned into a dung hill. They pray for God to lead and they pray for God to give them answers but just like in present day we deal with these same sort of thing. But what did they do? They had so much faith in God they didn’t lay awake all night in bed stressing out and worried about it. They left it in Gods hands. They goto sleep before they get an answer. The prospect ahead is death a horrible death. Once we talk to God we must rest on his promises and goto sleep. The meat here isn’t in the image. The lesson here is in times of trouble we must goto God and rest in a God. Rest in his promises . Fully trust God. We don’t know what he dreamed but we can rest on the promises. We need to trust God so when we face the worst we talk to God and we rest in God. That’s real faith! Is that you? Or do you lay awake all night worried about the rent or your mortgage. Are you worried about where you will get your next meal? Do you have to see it all worked out before you can have real faith? Is that you? Do you have to have an answer before you rest? Do you have to see God work it out before you trust or can you turn your marriage or that problem or disease over to God then rest! It’s so sweet to trust in Jesus. Can you rest?
So in my readings everyday of the Bible I fell into this sermon about faith
Based off the Israelites and even pharaoh. Kind of how we sometimes will lose our faith and things go bad, and we want to blame God. But then we forget when things are going good that it’s God taking care of us. The Israelites were so quick to blame God for leading them to the wilderness and ect. Pharaoh he also would give into God until the plague was lifted then he didn’t care what God said. I feel like we do this in our every day lives at times and as a church we do this. When right now it’s most important to understand faith in God and that we must keep in good times and bad. Just because we keep Gods commandments, and we believe in God doesn’t mean we won’t go through difficult times. It doesn’t mean we won’t be tested. So our faith is what has to be strong. But then the disciples they gave their lives up and left everything for Jesus Christ! To follow him. Abraham he had faith and he also took his family and left. Noah preached for 100 years they had never seen rain yet he had faith in God and he took care of him and his family. Joshua had faith when they took the walls down of Jericho with trumpets. Moses has faith in God to finally with Aaron demand he let go of the Israelites and led them out of Egypt through the Red Sea all through faith in God. Abraham sacrificing Isaac. Daniel in the lions den. Daniel and his friends going to sleep in chapter 2. The faith of the disciples when they were being killed and persecuted. The faith I spoke about from 1844 and even though Jesus Christ didn’t come back yet he still is and we understand more than ever our faith has to be strong. You see it’s not I. Our nature to trust. It’s in our nature to make arrangements and figure somehow out for God in case God doesn’t send the money we have a back plan. How do you goto sleep without an answer knowing you might get chopped up. You see they are sleeping before Gods acts. Don’t get me wrong the image is great and I love prophecy but without faith in God, and what we talked about last we his Grace loving one another and getting along with one another that prophecy gets you nothing. We must have faith. We must have love.
We have to remember to walk by faith not by sight
7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.
Can I rest can I trust can I wait? Can I believe? That’s the part of daniel 2 I don’t want to forget. A prophecy of faith and hope. It takes time for me to goto sleep because I have such an active mind. are you one of these people that playa the problem out in your head all night? Do you have to get up and take something? Bothered and worried. Then we pray to God and go on and take something to goto sleep anyhow. These four men, bodies mutilated already, manhood taken from them, prospect of more mutilation before them. Careers on the line and they pray. Then what do they do church? What do they do. They sleep. I’m going to begin finishing up play this so sweet to trust in Jesus.
24 When you lie down, you will not be afraid; Yes, you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet.
Sweet sleep.
God had to come through because I can see the Godhead saying. They aren’t worried. So we have to give them the dream. I can imagine it. We need to trust them because they trusted us first. After this last two weeks I pray for revival. It’s time we get back out in Babylon where things are strange. The language and beliefs are strange. Where the diet is strange where things are strange, where people are strange because we serve a God that wants us to Go out and live like God has acted already. We must go out and show faith in God and Christ’s love. So again this isn’t a story about it an image daniel 2 is a story about faith before I goto heaven and get eternal salvation. I’m going to rest and give it to God. If your in trouble put your faith and trust in God. He put us to the test. Trust in Jesus! Our job isn’t to figure out when he’s coming home it’s to be ready for him to take us home. We must rest and have faith in Jesus!
1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Think about the prodigal song
Everyone is like the older brother or younger brother in the prodigal son story (Luke 15:11-32)
11 Then He said: “A certain man had two sons. 12 And the younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me.’ So he divided to them his livelihood. 13 And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, journeyed to a far country, and there wasted his possessions with prodigal living. 14 But when he had spent all, there arose a severe famine in that land, and he began to be in want. 15 Then he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. 16 And he would gladly have filled his stomach with the pods that the swine ate, and no one gave him anything. 17 “But when he came to himself, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! 18 I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you, 19 and I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.” ’ 20 “And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. 21 And the son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight, and am no longer worthy to be called your son.’ 22 “But the father said to his servants, ‘Bring out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet. 23 And bring the fatted calf here and kill it, and let us eat and be merry; 24 for this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ And they began to be merry. 25 “Now his older son was in the field. And as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing. 26 So he called one of the servants and asked what these things meant. 27 And he said to him, ‘Your brother has come, and because he has received him safe and sound, your father has killed the fatted calf.’ 28 “But he was angry and would not go in. Therefore his father came out and pleaded with him. 29 So he answered and said to his father, ‘Lo, these many years I have been serving you; I never transgressed your commandment at any time; and yet you never gave me a young goat, that I might make merry with my friends. 30 But as soon as this son of yours came, who has devoured your livelihood with harlots, you killed the fatted calf for him.’ 31 “And he said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours. 32 It was right that we should make merry and be glad, for your brother was dead and is alive again, and was lost and is found.’ ”
Some self-righteously overemphasize works. Others flippantly sin. Some need to better understand grace, others sanctification. Help them pursue both.
Think about when he was in the pig pen. Can you imagine what the smells like all the toxins they let out. That’s when we smell ourselves and we can truly be saved for Christ. Because if you want to get through the end times it’s going to take being saved for real, a commitment of complete 100 percent faith and real true full time relationship with God and I would even say more than even those on this earth because we are going to go through many trials and troubles. We need Gods will to be played out. I’ve spoke to you about ignoring Gods call, I spoke to you about getting along with each other through a Gods amazing grace because we are all family. Which eventually led me to loving one another through Christ’s love. And the youth here with me as learned about that and we have a Vespers series and breaking this down verse by verse. Teaching how love and the Holy Spirit is an important part of this. The church is supposed to be love. But rejection is hard. I know it’s hard but now we go back to what I told the pathfinders about committing to that call even after 20 years of telling God no. Tell the story of coming back and going to play music again in 2014 or whenever. Then we talking about what the call entails and that’s true Christian living. Give them the four legs again and then accepting Gods call which is my appeal for us all today. We must go out and minister, witness, love one another even those in the community, get along with one another, genuine prayer and fasting, Christian living, we need Gods love and Grace. We need to treat others like family and we need to tell them about this awesome human who was born on this earth and gave his life for all of us on a cross and died of a broken heart just so we can all get to heaven. Like the parable of the soil. Some can come to Christ but others don’t have the spirit in them. We can’t waste time the end days are here.a good true bears good fruit and a bad one does not. The Holy Spirit knows our hearts lets goto Mattew 24 time of sorrows
1 Then Jesus went out and departed from the temple, and His disciples came up to show Him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said to them, “Do you not see all these things? Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down.” 3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?” 4 And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Sometimes I think we talk a lot about the blessings and forget about judgment for our sins as I said the wages of sin is death and the world the things in it will burn up. You can have love and warn judgment and tell about the blessings of you follow his commandments. The apostles did this. They were loving. Jesus the prophets and the apostles all loved us so much that they warned us of these judgments in more detail and depth so we would know that if we follow God‘s command that we would be judged accordingly and we would receive his blessings if we follow his commandments. He told Jeremiah these things. we can’t concentrate on worldliness and idols we must surrender ourselves to Christ and get the filth out of our minds. Our Intellectual. We have to have faith in God and not in the world or people. Prayer, worship, Christian service, and bible study is so important.
Daniel and revelation says he that shall come will come and will not tarry. I want to be ready on that day! When God comes on judgement day he isn’t going to ask us about anything other than If we have been true to our calling to serve him.
9 And he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
says the book was sealed
Then revelation 22:10says the books are now open
10 And he said to me, “Do not seal the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand.
The books are full of Jesus
Daniel 2 he shows up on a riding a rock that fills the whole earth
Daniel 3 he’s in a furnace cooling with presence
Daniel 5 shows up with a hand and writes on a walL what’s going to happen that night and it does
Daniel 7 he moves in before the father to show the judgment to come
Daniel 9 predicted in the closing verses
Daniel 10 he is seen battling or wrestling against the prince of Persia just the God said they would happen
Then in daniel 12 Michael just stands up
When God stands up that is The evidence is in the scriptures
Revelation 1 he’s in the midst candle sticks
Revelation 3 he’s knocking at the door
Revelation 5 he’s Christ the lamb
Revelation 6 he’s Christ coming
7 the lamb in the midst of the throne
10 Chris with a little book must eaten by the church sweet to taste but bitter to the stomach
12 he’s a little boy born devil waits on him
14 lamb with the 144,00
19 Christ triumphant
22 Christ still coming
These books show is the salvation of Jesus
Ellen white says this book alone is enough to save us.
you know what I have the evidence and the proof that each of us all have chance and I have the proof in the Bible
The first three chapters show is the seven churches and teach us about restoring something. This shows us when jezebelle was in the church and still worth saving to God that even when it gets rough and we are at our lowest point and others write you off God sees we are still worth saving just like when he takes us out of the pig pen in the prodigal son.
The churches represent our different stages of believers in the church. We all go through these stages. But God sees something in us worth saving! Reformation and restoration isn’t complete until it goes as far as God wants it to go. This starts in Sardis once you get out theiatira . Then the church of Philadelphia in 1844 when they thought Christ was coming. Talking about these believers in what they thought was the last days. They sold their houses and divided up their crops. Got rid of material goods and they made up with one another to get along with each other and truly began to love one another. The pews became sweet and pure. This is the way they began to act when they knew and thought Jesus was coming. How do you want to act? How do you want to act when you know Jesus is coming? Are you ready for him? Watch what happens at the end of the seven churches. In revelation 1 Jesus is in the church and by the end of revelation 3 he’s outside the church knocking trying to get in the door. He’s calling to the church!!! But our sins, gossip, music, it’s all so loud. Our worldliness is so loud. Problems between members continues and people are worried about titles and status rather than truly being ready for the one who died for us Jesus to come back and return. They cannot hear Jesus. The Greek tells us he has been calling and knocking.
So we have to wonder, who is going to be saved???
There is not one text in the Bible that ever truly praises mankind. He calls his work good. There is text about his power,love, and how wonderful he is. We must remember the Bible is about him. It’s never about us. We are inconsistent. But prophecy is proved. When we see the 144,000 on the glass we are seeing God saving us from the lake of fire, not us saving ourselves. Adam sinner, Noah got drunk, Abraham was a liar, Judah slept with a harlot who was his daughter in law. This is Jesus blood line. Elijah was even lied. Moses would knock you out and kill you and this was the best we got. But the evidence is right here in the word. The proof here is in Gods word!!! Sin destroyed Adam and eves face to face relationship with God was destroyed by sin. David was the best king, liar cheating wife stealing David. Solomon he was with many. The condition of man is what is so great about God. Once we realize our lives aren’t about us but they are about God we will be ready.
By revelation 4 John is discouraged
1 After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a trumpet speaking with me, saying, “Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this.”
When you can’t pay your bills get your mind of yourself and remember God. When your family is falling apart remember God. When you get sick or are losing loved ones or you can’t see somebody or get Lysol or any of these things we need remember that we have a God who will always provide for us. Know God is not intimidated by our sin. Some of us don’t live right and we are so messed up yet God goes and ahead and uses us anyhow, don’t think it’s because you are starting to good, only God is good and he went ahead and uses us anyhow. So wall humbly before God. we have to let our people know he is coming and the evidence is in the word that we can all be saved! It’s in the word!!! It’s in the word!!!!
As Johns looks up we see in
2 Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne set in heaven, and One sat on the throne. 3 And He who sat there was like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; and there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald. 4 Around the throne were twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white robes; and they had crowns of gold on their heads.
John saw the throne!! It’s in the word!!! Gods word!!!!
10 the twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying: 11 “You are worthy, O Lord, To receive glory and honor and power; For You created all things, And by Your will they exist and were created.”
9 And they sang a new song, saying: “You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,
People who were once in sin, are going to heaven, and the evidence and proof is right in the word!!! It’s in the word. I can make it. You can make it. We all can make it.
1 After these things I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, on the sea, or on any tree. 2 Then I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God. And he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was granted to harm the earth and the sea, 3 saying, “Do not harm the earth, the sea, or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” 4 And I heard the number of those who were sealed. One hundred and forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel were sealed:
1 Then I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father’s name written on their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven, like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of loud thunder. And I heard the sound of harpists playing their harps. 3 They sang as it were a new song before the throne, before the four living creatures, and the elders; and no one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who were redeemed from the earth.
Then go onto
9 After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands,
The evidence is there! The evidence is there!!!
We must recommit ourselves to Christ and be ready for the sabbath and for Jesus to come home at all times!!! We gotta study, dig, pray, cry! We are the biggest problem in our own lives! A sinner saved by the grace of God. You have to commit to God and give him all you got!! Use the strength of his Holy Spirit! So can you rest in your faith like they did in Exodus. Like the Hebrew boys did? They then wanted them to bow to the statue...... When they wanted the Hebrew boys to bow down there were more Israel boys and women who didn’t stand up for God. But the boys they stood up while the rest bowed down to the image. Will you stand up for God? Will you be in the great multitude when persecution comes on in the last days? But I got proof that each and every one of us have a chance so we must keep working every day. Are you ready for Jesus? Are we ready for Jesus?
Is that going to be you when Jesus comes home? Are you going to bow down and tie your shoe or are you going to truly stand up for God? Are you ready? Are we ready? Let’s pray!
Closing prayer
