00:00:02.160 |
Let me begin by asking you guys this question, okay, 00:00:06.040 |
to help you guys get in the frame of the sermon for today. 00:00:14.340 |
The best and the greatest reward you have ever received. 00:00:24.280 |
But something that you actually kind of worked for, 00:00:26.080 |
but it was a bigger reward than you had imagined. 00:00:29.800 |
A greater reward than you had imagined, okay? 00:00:34.080 |
Maybe you were pushing really hard for a test, 00:00:39.120 |
but you got an A plus or something like that, I don't know. 00:00:47.760 |
think of something that you might have gotten, okay? 00:00:51.160 |
All right, so that's great, that great reward. 00:00:56.280 |
But you wanna share it with the person next to you, yes? 00:01:06.080 |
Okay, whatever that reward you received, right? 00:01:11.080 |
I wanna let you know that God wants to bless you 00:01:14.640 |
and reward you more than you can ever imagine. 00:01:18.400 |
And I'll prove it to you by just what the word of God says. 00:01:25.800 |
and bless you more than you can even imagine? 00:01:34.080 |
and it will change and transform the way you live your life 00:01:39.920 |
You know, if we live our life for rewards on this world, 00:01:45.880 |
You use your credit card to get some credit card 00:01:56.440 |
then that will begin to change the way you look at God 00:02:01.840 |
And so that's what we're gonna be talking about today. 00:02:03.200 |
So let's look at the Luke 19, verse 11 through 27, okay? 00:02:14.720 |
I'm reading from the ESV, the English Standard Version, okay? 00:02:31.720 |
and because they supposed that the kingdom of God 00:02:37.560 |
He said, "Therefore, a noble man went into a far country 00:02:43.400 |
"to receive for himself a kingdom and then return. 00:03:08.040 |
"When he returned, having received the kingdom, 00:03:11.120 |
"he ordered these servants to whom he had given the money to 00:03:27.260 |
"And he said to him, well done, good servant. 00:03:31.300 |
"Because you have been faithful in a very little, 00:03:38.200 |
"Because you have been faithful in a very little, 00:03:51.300 |
"And he said to him, and you are to be over five cities. 00:04:02.100 |
"For I was afraid of you because you are a severe man. 00:04:09.440 |
"He said to him, I will condemn you with your own words, 00:04:20.200 |
"Why then did you not put my money in the bank? 00:04:22.840 |
"And at my coming, I might have collected it with interest. 00:04:32.280 |
"And they said to him, Lord, he has 10 minas. 00:04:35.640 |
"I tell you that to everyone who has, more will be given. 00:04:48.320 |
"bring them here and slaughter them before me." 00:04:52.920 |
Please take a moment to look at that yourself. 00:05:21.460 |
Thank you that as you look upon your sons and daughters, 00:05:31.580 |
Is there anything that you would not provide for their needs? 00:05:40.760 |
And I pray that today, Lord, as we look into your word, 00:05:50.980 |
and God, that you are a good and generous God. 00:05:55.020 |
We pray that you would fill us with your spirit and guide us. 00:06:03.380 |
Let me, can we do some interaction, is that okay? 00:06:07.260 |
If you're wrong, I'm not gonna go, "Eh," get out. 00:06:26.900 |
That means we don't know how long he's going to be away. 00:06:29.780 |
Okay, currently, he's been away for over 2,000 years. 00:06:36.580 |
That he has given his servants one mina each. 00:06:44.140 |
So he gives each of his 10 servants one mina each. 00:06:56.380 |
And we see that all the time around us, right? 00:07:01.900 |
We want ourselves to be king or queen in that sense, right? 00:07:09.540 |
and when he comes back, he's gonna call everybody, 00:07:11.980 |
his servants, to give account for their life, 00:07:21.620 |
So that's pretty much what the parable is saying. 00:07:23.860 |
Now, what Jesus has done is he has given us, actually, 00:07:26.940 |
a future parable of what the framework of our life 00:07:45.820 |
and as he left, he gives us minas, his servants, 00:07:59.660 |
he will call us to give account for our life. 00:08:18.660 |
and when he does come back, we'll all give account. 00:08:27.540 |
The picture of what your life is going to look like. 00:08:34.380 |
That is the only thing that is missing from this frame. 00:08:37.660 |
Everything else, you cannot do anything about it. 00:08:48.980 |
This begins by, "As they heard these things," 00:08:52.740 |
and so it's a connector from verse 10, right, and on. 00:09:04.780 |
if not 10,000 people that are crowded around Jesus. 00:09:23.980 |
They are following Jesus because they believe 00:09:26.420 |
that Jesus fits the exact model of the Old Testament prophets 00:09:36.420 |
"If there's gonna be anyone who's gonna be Messiah, 00:09:41.780 |
if not tens of thousands, that are following Jesus 00:09:50.780 |
there was a blind man by the name of Bartimaeus. 00:10:02.420 |
Remember he sees a small guy, what was his name? 00:10:09.180 |
The one that is hated by the other Jewish people 00:10:13.700 |
What does Zacchaeus do when he encounters Jesus? 00:10:20.820 |
"and anyone I cheated, I will pay back four times." 00:10:33.660 |
"He's going to establish the kingdom of Israel." 00:10:43.420 |
In fact, he tried so hard for those three years 00:10:48.440 |
like Capernaum and Galilee, where he would be unknown, 00:10:56.080 |
"The Son of Man came to seek and save the lost. 00:11:09.200 |
"I've come to save lives, to lead people back to Christ, 00:11:14.780 |
"before I establish my kingdom," in that sense. 00:11:23.380 |
But when he returns, he's going to come back as king 00:11:28.500 |
Now, the thing is this, even though he's telling them this, 00:11:36.740 |
They're like, "Jesus, when we get to Jerusalem, 00:11:50.400 |
"We are sick and tired of the pagan Roman worship. 00:11:57.680 |
"We are sick and tired of all our fellow Jewish people 00:12:14.920 |
But Jesus is saying, "No, that's not why I came for. 00:12:20.020 |
"I did not come to establish a political kingdom. 00:12:37.800 |
we're kind of in the same attitude as the disciples. 00:12:44.360 |
I'm sick and tired of these transgender issues 00:12:48.960 |
I'm sick and tired of all, I'm sick and tired, 00:12:58.940 |
And so in a real sense, we are just like the disciples. 00:13:06.840 |
and I see a lot of the 666 or the end of the world, 00:13:09.080 |
a lot of those YouTube clips, they come from America. 00:13:12.400 |
They don't come from other parts of the world. 00:13:34.080 |
And the parable is the nobleman go off to a far country. 00:13:39.880 |
that he is gonna become king, and he's going to return. 00:13:43.360 |
And when he returns, every single person on this world 00:13:54.240 |
those who have been obedient, will receive a great reward. 00:13:57.080 |
But those who have not will face a great judgment, 00:14:04.160 |
He calls his 10 servants and he gives them one minna each, 00:14:10.600 |
That word, engage, in the Greek is the word pragmatoumai, 00:14:14.220 |
which is where we get the word pragmatic, right? 00:14:17.560 |
It means to carry on business, to trade, to occupy. 00:14:22.560 |
The king, the nobleman is telling his servants, 00:14:29.800 |
The command is simple, I think, and very clear. 00:14:57.960 |
the population of the world is moving into cities. 00:15:01.320 |
And so God is saying, "I want you to engage in cities." 00:15:04.840 |
And I live in Gangnam, which is ridiculously crowded. 00:15:13.560 |
You get into a subway, people are crammed against you. 00:15:16.840 |
I sat down in the subway, I had no idea, okay? 00:15:20.260 |
I sit down, there's no such thing as personal space. 00:15:32.920 |
people are bumping, little ajummas are pushing me. 00:15:40.000 |
I want to disengage and go off to some secluded area. 00:16:00.560 |
Because, you know, that could be kind of nebulous. 00:16:03.320 |
And secondly, maybe more importantly, how do we engage? 00:16:08.680 |
and say, "Yeah, I have to engage, I have to engage, 00:16:11.400 |
I want us to start thinking about how do we engage as well? 00:16:22.000 |
To engage, literally, it means to put my money to work. 00:16:29.880 |
Literally, word for word, Jesus is commanding 00:16:41.680 |
Now, to be sure, the Bible does talk about us 00:16:48.360 |
But I think that most of us, if we look at this, 00:16:50.360 |
we can figure out that it's not just talking about money. 00:16:58.840 |
so you go, "Well, this parable means nothing to me 00:17:03.280 |
And a lot of the apostles didn't have money too, right? 00:17:50.240 |
And doing the research, going over commentaries, 00:17:55.000 |
The gospel, some of the commentaries are gospel, 00:18:20.040 |
all that you are, that which the King has given to you, 00:18:23.320 |
and then to occupy, to engage until he returns. 00:18:34.000 |
and it's been multiplied 10 times, five times, whatever, 00:18:55.760 |
to be involved, to enter into people's lives and interests, 00:19:00.440 |
to get to know them is the understanding of engage, 00:19:13.640 |
In fact, he was the one who did it in the most real way. 00:19:22.760 |
didn't do anything, didn't give him water to wash his hands, 00:19:25.280 |
and Jesus is laying down and he's eating, and what happens? 00:19:33.640 |
she begins to weep, and her tears start to hit Jesus' feet, 00:19:39.920 |
She unties her hair, she begins to wipe his feet 00:19:42.520 |
with her hair, and then pour the alabaster jar perfume, 00:19:45.240 |
very expensive perfume, and what does Simon the Pharisee say? 00:20:05.460 |
from the superficial, but Jesus actually engages, 00:20:07.980 |
he knows them, he goes, "Daughter, your faith has saved you. 00:20:12.820 |
And then along comes another time, he's walking, 00:20:14.660 |
and along comes a rich young ruler, remember? 00:20:19.220 |
And Jesus says, "Well, what does the law say?" 00:20:25.740 |
Keeps all the law, is rich and young and good-looking. 00:20:33.860 |
'cause he knows him, says, "That's one thing you lack. 00:20:39.020 |
"and then come follow me, and you'll have riches in heaven." 00:20:46.100 |
You see, Jesus is the only one that truly engages people. 00:21:02.540 |
Do you engage, do you invest the life God has given to you, 00:21:08.340 |
Do you try to hide or put it in a handkerchief? 00:21:12.960 |
Now that was the word engage, what it means to engage. 00:21:22.580 |
Now let me start off by asking you this question. 00:21:25.140 |
If Bill Gates gave you a large chunk of his money 00:21:28.660 |
and said to you, "I want you to multiply this for me." 00:21:34.340 |
How would you treat that money that he gives to you? 00:21:37.060 |
And how would you know how to multiply it as well? 00:21:46.660 |
Now this is the thing, Bill Gates is just a man, 00:21:49.220 |
and that money he gives to you is just temporary. 00:21:51.780 |
God has given you his very son, his very spirit, 00:22:07.540 |
If you wanna be a good servant in this place, 00:22:10.420 |
Yeah, amen, praise God, I'm speaking to you guys, great. 00:22:13.260 |
So think about this, here are the 10 servants, 00:22:16.020 |
they're lined up, and the king gives each one a mina. 00:22:19.580 |
I want you to multiply this, engage in business, 00:22:23.380 |
Now the moment the king gives them the money, 00:22:35.980 |
They become investment bankers in that sense, right? 00:22:43.340 |
And so I started looking at this picture, this story, 00:22:47.980 |
"investment banker, and took this parable and taught it." 00:22:51.420 |
So I said, "Okay, if God wants us to be investment banker, 00:22:54.020 |
"then I better look up the five top qualities 00:23:01.860 |
click, click, click, click, top five qualities. 00:23:04.860 |
I thought that the number one quality would be 00:23:09.580 |
that's what I thought the number one would be. 00:23:24.060 |
I was like, "Oh my gosh, that sounds like Christian." 00:23:29.580 |
Second, good investment bankers give of themselves 00:23:39.900 |
where the investment will make the most impact. 00:23:43.220 |
but it was actually like number three or number four. 00:24:00.220 |
"I'm making my number one priority to get to know you. 00:24:08.000 |
"Do you want a quick return or a slow, steady growth?" 00:24:11.900 |
There is a sense where a good investment banker knows 00:24:44.140 |
There is this humility, there is this absolute sense 00:24:50.580 |
But there is a second principle that is so profound. 00:25:00.420 |
whether it be His Spirit, whether it be the Gospel, 00:25:08.660 |
this is the principle, that it will just multiply itself. 00:25:17.100 |
It has everything in there to produce fruit, to multiply. 00:25:39.240 |
"God, it's my mina, so I don't want to share. 00:25:42.400 |
"God, it's my mina, so I don't wanna give my time." 00:25:47.180 |
But not only that, sometimes I find myself going like this, 00:25:49.380 |
"God, I need more minas, and then I could do something." 00:25:54.660 |
It's not about how I feel, or even what I think. 00:26:15.720 |
"and working hard to get their investments multiplied. 00:26:18.800 |
"The client recognizes that you genuinely care about them, 00:26:22.060 |
"and not just trying to make some money for yourself. 00:26:28.580 |
"If they say no, then you find something else. 00:26:52.280 |
In this parable, of course, the client, or the investor, 00:27:00.360 |
How well we know Christ, how closely we walk with Him, 00:27:06.360 |
And Jesus, again, is a supreme example of the investor. 00:27:15.200 |
Jesus says, "I do nothing apart from my Father." 00:27:21.040 |
every afternoon, when people are doing ministry, 00:27:22.640 |
whatever, busy, every night, when people go to sleep, 00:27:29.520 |
And because He knows how to engage the client, the Father, 00:27:46.160 |
That's what it should look like, the picture of our life. 00:27:48.000 |
Second, a good investment banker gives themselves 00:27:52.720 |
In other words, they work hard for their clients. 00:28:03.740 |
the first thing they do is they open up their portfolio 00:28:06.080 |
and they go over the data, 'cause things change overnight. 00:28:10.080 |
And then they meditate upon it, they research it, 00:28:15.600 |
And I go, oh my gosh, this sounds like a Christian again. 00:28:27.000 |
meditate upon it, see how we are to adjust our life 00:28:38.780 |
because you know what's going on in the portfolio, 00:28:41.340 |
you know what the word of God is saying in your life, 00:28:43.340 |
and then you act upon it, and then you have to take risks. 00:28:50.100 |
because the word of God says, love your neighbor. 00:29:17.060 |
It's only the client who says, no, you're fired, right? 00:29:23.820 |
But that's kind of what we do sometimes as Christians. 00:29:45.320 |
Here's servant number one, servant number two. 00:29:49.980 |
five minutes more, and then the third servant. 00:29:51.960 |
So when servant number one and servant number two wakes up, 00:30:08.520 |
And meditate, think about it, pray about it, whatever. 00:30:18.400 |
In a certain sense, they wake up with meaning. 00:30:25.520 |
Oh gosh, I'm so tired, maybe a couple more hours. 00:30:38.640 |
And looks over at the number one and number two guy, 00:30:46.040 |
Come on, how long has this master been away for? 00:30:53.760 |
You weren't, just give it up, and just come live like me. 00:30:58.280 |
And because the third servant has this kind of attitude, 00:31:07.200 |
In fact, what is his attitude like when the king does return? 00:31:17.680 |
"I know that you try to reap what you don't deposit." 00:31:21.180 |
What is someone who tries to reap what they don't deposit? 00:31:26.440 |
This third servant is calling the king a thief. 00:31:31.600 |
Could you imagine what servant number one, number two, 00:31:48.200 |
In fact, I'm thankful that he even gave me a mina, 00:32:00.800 |
Perhaps some of us are like this in this room. 00:32:27.780 |
I really thought about this for a second, you know? 00:32:29.320 |
Where in the Bible does God just take things away 00:32:39.640 |
But Job didn't know that it was actually Satan 00:32:44.920 |
So in actuality, it's not even biblically right 00:32:48.720 |
In fact, if you look at God, what does he always do? 00:32:55.200 |
he gives his word, he gives the body of Christ, 00:33:00.480 |
But if you think that God is keeping something from you, 00:33:04.680 |
he's stingy, then your heart becomes like this third servant 00:33:16.120 |
"He gives, and now these two guys are excited. 00:33:26.800 |
These three, these 10 servants, these three servants, 00:33:35.400 |
have the exact same opportunity to see multiplication. 00:34:06.220 |
Only you can stop yourself from multiplying your minna. 00:34:10.980 |
Only you can stop yourself from taking risks for God. 00:34:14.740 |
Only you can stop yourself from pushing that extra hardness 00:34:20.900 |
The third servant, he was his own worst enemy. 00:34:34.620 |
in modern Western Christianity, or should I say Churchianity, 00:34:39.420 |
And the attitude is like this, or this belief. 00:34:43.900 |
so now I'm saved, and I go to church on Sundays. 00:34:50.900 |
Now I will live my life the way I wanna live it. 00:35:02.740 |
in such affluence and comfort that we just live like this. 00:35:13.340 |
like the people of the world who don't serve God. 00:35:27.340 |
This is the picture that we want our life to look like, 00:35:32.820 |
But Jesus is telling us he wants us to engage in his kingdom. 00:35:38.000 |
Do we understand the price that was paid for our salvation? 00:35:43.260 |
Are we truly grateful for the honor and the privilege 00:35:50.940 |
like people of the world, pursuing the things of this world? 00:35:54.620 |
No, we must be like the first and the second servant 00:35:57.860 |
who are faithful, who are hardworking, who take risks, 00:36:10.620 |
At any given moment, you know, there are hundreds, 00:36:13.380 |
maybe thousands of different possibilities to invest in, 00:36:19.280 |
So what you have to do is you have to have a sense 00:36:22.380 |
of where your master wants you to particularly invest in. 00:36:30.480 |
Remember, it's the same Nina, but it's a unique servant. 00:36:39.180 |
And we are to live the life that God has created 00:36:44.700 |
So servant number one wakes up, this is what I enjoy doing. 00:36:49.020 |
This is, number two wakes up, this is what I enjoy doing. 00:36:51.780 |
You know, I've been a Christian now for 24 years, 00:36:57.060 |
and there's one occupation that I didn't think 00:37:02.500 |
And please, you know, if you're a bodybuilder here, 00:37:11.900 |
like this thin, thin thong underwear, you know? 00:37:14.820 |
And they turn around and you see their butt cheeks, 00:37:16.260 |
I'm just like, how do you glorify God like that, you know? 00:37:21.620 |
they come out in this even thinner, you know, 00:37:27.980 |
there was this one lady, her name is Samantha. 00:37:42.260 |
I feel like God really wants me to bodybuild. 00:37:44.180 |
I go, can you do that, can you do that, you know? 00:37:47.140 |
And then she like posts pictures up on her Facebook, 00:38:13.260 |
And all of a sudden, she meets this one Korean lady 00:38:19.060 |
some of you, you know, Korean people may know this, 00:38:21.180 |
but in Korea, there is this huge shame culture 00:38:24.140 |
where all Korean women, they hate the way they look, 00:38:27.620 |
So they're always doing plastic surgery, right? 00:38:34.980 |
so she goes, oh, I cannot do the competition. 00:38:46.460 |
I can do that, I'm Korean, I can do that, okay? 00:38:56.620 |
Each of us, we do our best so that when we go up on stage, 00:39:14.180 |
And this is what I realized, that she's absolutely right. 00:39:19.100 |
You are uniquely made for the way God made you. 00:39:21.300 |
Don't compare, because if you compare yourself 00:39:23.420 |
to somebody else, it will only lead to two things, 00:39:35.660 |
If you're gonna compare, compare yourself to Jesus, 00:39:39.260 |
and then you realize how much more you need of him. 00:40:11.340 |
There's no way, 'cause that's your handkerchief. 00:40:32.820 |
But some of us, that's the way we just escape. 00:40:34.860 |
That's the way we keep ourselves from engaging. 00:40:39.220 |
a sense of who you are, what God's called you for, 00:41:17.780 |
all of a sudden people start to see and call you out. 00:41:24.380 |
"Because everywhere you go, people are blessed 00:41:26.940 |
"to become more abundant when you pass through." 00:41:38.780 |
then you begin to start to see people start going, 00:41:42.740 |
There's a brother that was here in the first service, 00:41:49.340 |
You need to put that brother on the welcoming team, 00:42:04.220 |
by just sitting in front of a book in a cubicle. 00:42:13.780 |
Do you believe that God has given you his son, 00:42:16.140 |
his Holy Spirit, every good and perfect gift? 00:42:25.820 |
What is the greatest impact that you can make today? 00:42:33.860 |
Today, how can you make the greatest impact today? 00:42:36.340 |
What is the greatest impact you can make today? 00:42:56.700 |
that went through nine months of discipleship training. 00:43:02.940 |
Now some of them are really shy, so they didn't do it. 00:43:04.900 |
I had this one sister named Minji, very shy girl. 00:43:08.900 |
And so she saw this one student and she just engaged him. 00:43:11.700 |
She said, "Hey, would you like to do Bible study?" 00:43:14.060 |
In Korea, you could still do those kind of things, right? 00:43:17.980 |
So she said, "Would you like to Bible study?" 00:43:22.500 |
They started doing Bible study, the Book of John. 00:43:27.780 |
He liked it so much, they invited another friend. 00:43:30.060 |
Now this guy is on the verge of becoming a Christian. 00:43:32.540 |
That sister Minji came up to me, her face is beaming. 00:43:34.540 |
She's like, "I never knew that this could be done. 00:43:39.860 |
I was like, "I know, because you never engaged. 00:43:51.300 |
"because that's the powerfulness of God's Mina, 00:44:04.120 |
It's only if you're, as King says, if you're wicked. 00:44:12.020 |
So God's been really challenging me too, about this. 00:44:14.700 |
You know, I'm in Korea, and so it's difficult for me, 00:44:17.780 |
So you know what, I said, "Lord, wherever I go, 00:44:22.460 |
and I've been trying to get myself into shape, 00:44:25.980 |
really skinny Korean guy, and he was trying to do pull-ups, 00:44:31.380 |
And he brought a chair over, he's standing on the chair, 00:44:33.860 |
And I was just like, "Okay, chance to engage." 00:44:36.020 |
So I go up to him, and I just said in my broken Korean, 00:44:45.820 |
So I kinda spot him, and I'm holding up the back of his foot, 00:44:50.420 |
He comes down, he's like, "Oh, come on, sit down." 00:45:02.420 |
because I do not engage so I can get something back. 00:45:05.540 |
I engage simply because God has commanded me to engage, 00:45:10.980 |
And you know what, I'm gonna continue to engage. 00:45:12.900 |
Even yesterday, I went airsoft shooting with my son. 00:45:15.780 |
I don't know if you guys know what airsoft is, 00:45:17.020 |
it's like little plastic pellets, you shoot at each other. 00:45:20.260 |
And we went airsofting in Norwalk over here, or Downey, 00:45:26.980 |
And I start talking to them, I just start engaging. 00:45:37.340 |
And so who's this strange old man giving me Doritos, you know? 00:45:40.300 |
But they started eating it, they started eating my Doritos, 00:45:44.900 |
One guy is gonna be going to Long Beach Community College, 00:45:47.180 |
and the other guy, he's gonna be going to Thailand 00:45:51.300 |
As soon as he said that, I go, "This guy's a Mormon." 00:45:53.820 |
And sure enough, I said, "Oh, why are you going on missions?" 00:45:59.660 |
That would be an awesome testimony, wouldn't it? 00:46:03.180 |
As I just kept on talking with him, talking with him, 00:46:04.140 |
and I wish my son was here, he could tell you, 00:46:09.540 |
They kept on asking me, they kept on engaging me, 00:46:14.580 |
"and I just was obedient, and I just engaged them, 00:46:19.540 |
When you start to engage the people at your work, 00:46:21.340 |
and your family, engage them with God's love, 00:46:23.180 |
with the gospel, with kindness, with generosity, 00:46:26.180 |
When you're missing, they're gonna go, "Where's John? 00:46:31.940 |
because they realize without you, something's missing. 00:46:37.060 |
it is the life of Christ that he has placed in you. 00:46:41.100 |
I wanna end with this passage, Matthew 25, verse 31. 00:47:03.580 |
then he will sit on his glorious throne, here is the king. 00:47:09.260 |
and he will separate people one from another, 00:47:11.460 |
as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 00:47:18.740 |
Then the king will say to those on his right, 00:47:28.300 |
Prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 00:48:01.140 |
And when did we see you sick, or in prison, and visit you? 00:48:05.140 |
truly I say to you, as you did it to one of the least 00:48:14.780 |
They were not even looking like, where's Jesus? 00:48:16.100 |
Let me do this, so I can get something from Jesus. 00:48:18.220 |
They were just simply being faithful, obedient, and loving, 00:48:24.780 |
If you know that God has given you his son, salvation, 00:48:28.260 |
forgiven you of your sins, given you the Holy Spirit, 00:48:32.180 |
he has blessed you beyond imagination already. 00:48:36.260 |
Then just live it out by sharing that with others, 00:49:00.940 |
that you guys can impact this area powerfully, 00:49:07.060 |
and I'm gonna engage with your love, your grace, 00:49:10.540 |
And not only that, but this is what I hope you all 00:49:14.660 |
and say, Lord, if you're gonna bless me with five cities, 00:49:16.620 |
I pray that you will bless my brother and my sister 00:49:25.340 |
Oh, sorry, here is a picture, actual picture of that guy. 00:49:28.060 |
So I took that picture out, and I superimposed it, 00:49:33.800 |
into international students and be a blessing.
