Hi there, welcome to NECF. We're excited to share
today's message with you. Don't go anywhere,
stay with us till the end for some valuable resources
to enrich your faith. Here's today's sermon.
Colossians chapter 1, I'll be teaching on the
will of God for the believers. The will of God
for believers. We are writing the will of God
for believers. Colossians chapter 1. The letter
of Paul to the church in Colossae. Colossians
chapter 1. From verse 1 to 15. Please be sensitive
to what God is doing. He is speaking to us. And
he is edifying us. Paul, an apostle of Jesus
Christ. By the will of God and Timothy, our brother,
to the saints and the faithful brethren in Christ
who are in Colossae. Verse 3. We give thanks
to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
praying always for you, since we heard of your
faith in Christ Jesus and of your love for all
the saints. Because of the hope which is laid
up for you in heaven, of which you heard before
in the word of the truth of the gospel, which
has come to you as it has also in all the world,
and is bringing forth truth as it is also among
you since the day you heard and knew the grace
of God in truth. Verse 7. As we also learn from
Epaphras, our dear fellow servant, who is a faithful
minister of Christ on our behalf, who also declared
to us your love in the Spirit. Your love in the
Spirit. So for this reason, we also, since the
day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you
and to ask that you may be filled. with the knowledge
of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding,
that you may work worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing
to him, pleasing him rather, being fruitful in
every good work and increasing in the knowledge
of God. Strengthen with all mind according to
his glorious power for all patience and longsuffering
with joy. Giving thanks to the Father who has
qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance
of the saints in light. He has delivered us from
the power of darkness, has conveyed us into the
kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have
redemption through His blood, the forgiveness
of sins. The last verse from here, verse 15,
it says, He is the image. of the invisible God,
the firstborn of all creation. Hallelujah. The
will of God for believers. Now, thanks to not
from this passage, the Paul here is writing to
who? To a church. He says to faithful Christians,
Christians that are faithful and committed in
their work with God. Faithful Christians whom
he has received a good report of their faith
in Christ Jesus and love which they show for
themselves, for their brethren. And of course,
Paul received this good report from Epaphras,
a faithful minister of Christ. He's one of them.
He's their pastor. He's their minister. And he's
given a good report of the people of God to Paul
of their faithfulness, of their love. Of their
growth. Of their commitment to the things of
God. Of their indulgence in the spiritual things.
Verse 9 and verse 10. It's a place of our focus.
It says for this reason. Which reason? For the
good report I've had of you. For the love I've
had. That you have in the spirit. Verse 8. Who
also declared to us your love in the spirit.
For this reason. We also, since the day we had
it, we do not cease to pray for you. We do not
cease to pray for you. And what is our prayer?
Our prayer is that we ask that you, that is the
church, that is the people of God, that is the
faithful Christians, the faithful men and women
of God, that you may be filled with what? With
the knowledge. The knowledge of his will. Whose
will? The knowledge of the will of God. The knowledge
of the will of God in all wisdom, which is spiritual
understanding. This wisdom is spiritual understanding.
So the desire of Paul is that these people will
know, will have a grasp, will fully comprehend,
will have a perfect knowledge. Of what God desires.
Of what God desires. So poor prayer is that they
may be filled with what? With the knowledge.
If the Bible is yours, underline that knowledge.
That they may be filled with the knowledge. That
they may be filled with what? With knowledge.
The knowledge of what? The knowledge not of physics.
The knowledge not of chemistry or politics. or
commerce, or government, not of even history,
but a knowledge of what? Of the will of God.
So what is that knowledge? The word knowledge
in that text. The word knowledge is translated
into the English language from the Greek word
epignosis. E -P -I -G -N -O -S -I -S. Epignosis.
E... P -E -P -I -G -N -O -S -I -S. Epignosis.
And this epignosis means precise. It means a
precise and accurate knowledge. A precise and
correct knowledge of the will of God. Which means
that... There could be a knowledge of God that
is not precise. There could be the knowledge
of the will of God that is not accurate. There
could be the knowledge of the will of God that
is not correct. And you know, the funny thing
is that some people's entire Christian life is
built upon a distorted knowledge of the will
of God. Some people's entire Christianity is
built upon false doctrine, a distorted knowledge
of what God demands. A distorted knowledge of
what God has in plan for humanity. A distorted
knowledge of what God wants of us who are his
people. Now the precise knowledge of God's will
is essential to fulfilling God's will. The precise
knowledge of God's will is very vital, is important
if you and I that are believers will do what
God wants us to do because it is God's desire
that we do his will. Without knowing what is
expected of you, it is impossible to do that
which you have been instructed to do accurately.
Imagine you enter an exam hall and then the professor
gives an instruction. Some of us actually, unfortunately,
don't read exam instructions. I remember ever
entering an exam back in high school and the
teacher wrote almost 20 questions in the paper.
And they write instructions so tiny. And the
instruction is write your name and submit. Nobody
read the instruction. There was time and everything.
But there's an instruction, write your name and
submit. Just a test to see whether we listen
to instructions, we understand instructions.
And everybody was busy answering questions. Writing,
writing, and writing. Which means that everybody
failed the exams. If you don't understand instruction,
it is impossible for you to do what God demands.
If you don't understand the will of God, it is
impossible for you to do the will of God. And
if you have a distorted knowledge of the will
of God, definitely we will have a distorted result
in our lives. What is that word will in verse
9? The word will in verse 9. The word will is
also translated from another Greek word, thilema.
T -H -E -L -E -M -A. T -H -E -L -E -M -A. Which
means, what one wishes or desires. No, no. What
one wishes or has determined shall be done. What
one wishes or has determined. That shall be done.
It also means, it means the person's will, right?
It means the person's choice. The word means
the person's choice. The person's inclination,
his desire, his pleasure. What gives him pleasure?
Do you know what God wants of you as a believer?
Do you know what demands of you as a believer?
Do you know what gives God pleasure as a believer?
We can see the usage of the word will, the lima,
in other places in scriptures. Matthew 6, verse
10, quickly. Matthew 6, verse 10, where we usually
refer to as the Lord's Prayer. It says, your
kingdom, what? Your kingdom come. Your will,
what? Be done on earth as it is in heaven. What
is done in heaven, the culture of heaven where
God lives. should be established where? On the
earth. Of course, we know this is before Jesus
died and he rose again. Chapter 7, verse 21.
Chapter 7, verse 21. It says, Not everyone who
says to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the kingdom
of heaven. But he who does the will of my Father,
where? In heaven. So how does one get into the
kingdom of heaven? How? Huh? By what? Huh? Believers,
how do we enter the kingdom of heaven? By believing.
Right? By faith. You see, we don't enter by works.
If you are entering by works, it means that you
don't know what the will of God is. The will
of God is that you believe, that you have faith
in what Jesus has done. So not everyone who says
to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the kingdom of
heaven, but he who does what? Who does the pleasure
of God? Who does what God desires? Who does what
God demands of us? The will of God. Chapter 12,
verse 50. We'll see another place where the word...
Wheel is used. 12 verse 50. For whosoever does
the wheel of my Father in heaven is what? Is
my brother and my sister and my mother. This
is Jesus speaking. Whoever does the wheel of
God is my father. Who does the wheel of my Father
in heaven is my brother, is my sister, and is
my mother. That is to say, when you do the will
of God, you come into fellowship with Jesus.
You come into the family of God by doing the
will of God. Chapter 18, verse 14. The word will.
Even so, it is not the will. Now, this is opposite.
This is in the negative. Even so, it is not the
will. It is not the desire. It is not the demand.
It is not the pleasure of your father. Who is
in heaven that one of these little ones should
perish? So God does not desire, God does not
have pleasure for people to be perished. Amen?
Luke chapter 22, verse 42. Luke 22, verse 42.
Saying, Father, this is Jesus here, praying,
if it is your will, take this cup. away from
me. Nevertheless, not my will, but what? But
yours be done. This is Jesus submitting to what?
To the will of the Father. What we do to the
will of the Father is that we submit to the will
of the Father. We embrace the will of the Father
even if it is comfortable. We embrace the will
of the Father even when we don't understand.
We submit to what gives God pleasure at all times,
at all seasons. And all circumstances, because
that is what God desires. Luke 23, verse 25.
And he released them, the one who they requested.
Now this is the Jewish, the Jewish people. Who
for rebellion and murder had been thrown into
prison. Who are they? Who are we talking about
here? Barabbas, right? But he delivered Jesus
to their will. So what is it? The word will here
is a desire of the people. What the people wants
to happen. What do people plan to happen? What
do people desire to see manifested? They desire
to see Jesus crucified. The word will. John chapter
1 verse 13. John chapter 1 verse 13. Our salvation
here. Look at our salvation. Who were born not
of the blood nor of the will of what? Of the
flesh. Which means that you being born again
is not the works of, is not an orchestration
of man. Alright? It's not a plan. Your salvation
is not designed by you or your economic council
in your country or your pastor or your church
elders. Your salvation is the will of who? Of
God. God planned, God orchestrated, God desire.
and executed your salvation. It is all about
him, what he desires and what he manifested in
Christ Jesus. Chapter 4, John chapter 4, verse
34. John chapter 4, verse 34. Jesus said to them,
my food is what? Is to do the desire. Is to do
the wishes. Is to do what God has determined.
Is to do the pleasure. Of him who sent me. And
to do what? And to finish whose work? His work.
God's work. So Jesus was committed to one thing.
The commitment of Jesus Christ. Must be the commitment
of the believer. The will of the father. The
will of the father. And of course we have the
ability to do the will of the father. What that
takes. You can read also John chapter 5 verse
30, John chapter 6 verse 38 to 40. You can write
it down, John chapter 5 verse 30, John chapter
6 verse 38 to 40. Ephesians chapter 1 from verse
1 down to 11 is the will of God, the will of
God, by the will of God. So we see that Paul's
prayer is for the saints, the believers, the
Christians, to have a correct... precise knowledge
of what God wishes or has determined shall be
done or should be done, God's choice, God's plan,
His desire, and His pleasure for humanity. Hallelujah.
Now, the understanding of this, of God's will,
will result in what we see in the next verse,
Colossians. chapter 1, verse 10. With the understanding
of the precise knowledge, the accurate knowledge
of the will of the Father, that you may walk
worthy of the Lord to fully pleasing Him. In
pleasing Him, you are being fruitful, Lord, in
every good work and increasing in the knowledge
of God. Being fruitful, In every good work is
a product of understanding what God wants of
you and then you do it. Without understanding
precisely, without understanding accurately,
it is impossible to become what's fruitful in
every good work. So the knowledge of God's will
results in working in alignment with God. It
results in doing what pleases God. It results
to being fruitful in every good work. Now, abounding
or fruitfulness in every good work refers to
what? Ministry. Amen? It refers to what? It refers
to ministry. It refers to ministry. And it's
to the saints, to every saint, to every believer.
to every Christian, every man that is born again,
it's called to ministry. You must know that that
is the will of God for you. That is the plan
of God for you. That is the desire of God for
you. So your effectiveness and precision in ministry
are a product of knowing what exactly God's plan
is. You must know what God's plan is for you,
the believer. You must know what the will of
God is for you, the believer. And there's no
way you can find the will of God. Then what?
That in the word of God. Because the word of
God is a written word of God for the believer
to know God's plan, to know God's purpose, to
know God's desire for you, to know God's desire
for the church, to know the hope to which you
were called without an explanation. Without an
accurate teaching of the word of God, it is impossible
for you to know what God demands of you. Because
it is all about the will of God and less of us.
Hallelujah. Now let's look at the believer's
identity. Who we are. It is important to note
that the believer's identity comes with... a
responsibility, or let me say the responsibility.
The knowledge of the believer's identity comes
with a responsibility to fulfill God's eternal
plan on earth. The knowledge of your identity
comes with a responsibility upon you to do the
will of God. 1 Peter chapter 1. Let's read 1
Peter chapter 1 from verse 22. Down to chapter
2, verse 1 to 10. 1 Peter chapter 1. 1 Peter
chapter 1 from verse 22. but incorruptible through
the word of God, which lives and abides forever.
Because all flesh is as grass, and all the glory
of man as the flowers of the grass. The grass
withers, and its flowers fall away. But the word
of the Lord endures forever. Now this is the
word which by the gospel was preached to you.
Chapter 2. Therefore laying aside all malice,
all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all evil speaking,
as newborn babes desire the pure milk of the
word, that you who may grow, if indeed you have
tested that the Lord is gracious. Coming to him
as to a living stone. We're singing about the
rock Elaron. And who or what do we say is a rock?
Huh? The Lord is a rock, right? Or the rock is
the Lord. Hallelujah. Coming to him as to a living
stone rejected indeed by men but chosen by God
and precious. You also as living stones are being
Let me say, I built up a spiritual house, a holy
priesthood to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable
to God through Jesus Christ. Therefore, it is
also contained in Scripture. Behold, I lay Zion
a chief cornerstone, elect precious. And he who
believes on him will by no means be put to shame.
Therefore to whom believe, he is precious. But
to those who are disobedient, the stone which
the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone
and a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense.
So when you believe, this rock is not a stumbling
block. It's not a rock of offense. It says they
stumble, being disobedient. What is that disobedience?
They refuse to believe that rock. Amen? They
refuse to believe that rock. So we are built
on him. That was our song. The Lord is a rock
of which we are built on him. When you don't
believe in a rock, you are like that foolish
man that builds his life on what? On the sun.
And we know what happened to that house. We know
what happened to that life. So they stumbled
being disobedient to the word to which they also
were appointed. But you, say but I, but you are
a chosen generation, a royal pursuit, a holy
nation, His own special people, that you May
proclaim the praises of him who called you out
of darkness into his marvelous light. Who once
were not a people, but now the people of God.
Who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained
mercy. Hallelujah. So in chapter 2, verse 4 and
5, we see the identity of the believers. We see
the identity of the church. The identity of the
believers. The identity of. We believers. It's
coming to him as a living stone. Rejected indeed
by men. But chosen by God. And precious. You
also. It called Jesus the living stone. And also
called us. The believers. You also a living stone.
As living stones. See the living stones is in
plural. Meaning everybody. That believes is also
what? It's a living stone. That is the identity
of every believer. I built up a what? A spiritual
house. A habitation. A spiritual house. A holy
priesthood. Holy means set apart. A priesthood.
A priest. A priesthood. You know, we used to
say every Sunday that we are priests. Isn't it?
We are priests. We are what? We are kings. We
are what? And prophets. Hallelujah. So we are
a holy priesthood to offer what? We offer up
spiritual sacrifices acceptable to go through
Jesus Christ. So we see in verse 4, Jesus is
a living stone. And we see believers also referred
to as living stones. This is what we call identification.
Amen? We identified with him. Because of who
he is, we become. Because of who he is and what
he has done, we become. So we identify with his
nature because we believe. This is identification.
The phrase as living stones identifies us with
Christ. He is the living stone and we are also
living stones. We live. Because we share in his
resurrection, in his resurrection life, by believing
in what he has done. Hallelujah. How many of
us know that this living stone is a figure of
speech? We know, right? Are you a stone? Are
you a rock? You are a human being. So, it's a
way of communication. Right? In English, what
do we call it? Simile? Or metaphor? Okay, what
if we carry the characteristics of a living thing
and give to a non -living thing? So, let's join
the two together. Of course, it's metaphorical,
right? But we are seen as what? As living stones.
Okay? And what is our function? We have been
built up into a spiritual house. That is also
metaphoric. Right? To us, it is a metaphor. But
spiritually, it is a reality. It is not a metaphor
spiritually. Do you understand what I just said
now? It is a spiritual reality. We must define
what stone is. Stone is a Bible language. So
stone is equal to stone in Bible language. And
you are a house. Conglomerately, we are the house
of God. We are the church of God. We are the
habitation where God dwells. Hallelujah. We are
the house of God. So we've been built up into
a spiritual house. We are not only a spiritual
house, but we are a holy priesthood. So what
is our identity? We are identified in Christ.
Our identity is in Christ. We are who Christ
is. Amen? We are identified with him. We are
a holy priesthood. What does a priest do? A priest
offers spiritual sacrifice to God. So from this,
we can know that the believers, collective and
individual, Collectively and individually, we
are spiritual, right? We are heavenly. Spiritual
simply means that we are heavenly. Spiritual
simply means that we are not only physical, but
we are spiritual by nature. Our nature, our identity
first is that we are spiritual men. We are heavenly.
And we are a dwelling place of God. We are God's
house. God's temple. I want us to note also that
this conversation is about a union. The union,
if you look through all scripture, right? We
are in God and God is in us. It's a union. Hallelujah.
It's a union. So the believers collectively are
the priesthood who offer spiritual sacrifices
to God. The priest under the law, the priest
under the law, the law of Moses, performs activities
where? Where does he perform his activities?
Inside the temple, the physical temple. So what
we see Moses did, Moses created what? A shadow
of the reality. Moses created a type of what
he saw in the heavenly. So the temple... It's
a physical representation, a pointer to the real,
which is our reality today. So the priest under
the law performs activities in the temple. He
goes into the Holy of Holies, the dwelling of
God, and offers sacrifice. He offers blood on
the altar. The priest is a typology of what Christ
has done. Number one, it's a typology of what...
Of what Christ has done. Alright. His activity
in the temple. Is an expression. Whose activity?
The activity of the priest under the law. Is
an expression. Of what Christ did. In other words.
The priest. Is proclaiming. The work of Christ.
The priest. Is demonstrating. What Christ has
done. The priest is showing, I would say, the
priest is teaching what Christ will do. Which
our reality, Christ has already done it. Hallelujah.
So we are a holy priesthood. And what we do also
is offer a spiritual sacrifice acceptable to
God. What is this spiritual sacrifice that is
acceptable to God? What is this spiritual sacrifice
that is acceptable to God? What is this spiritual?
We didn't say it's a fiscal sacrifice. We're
not saying give $10 ,000 as a sacrifice. That's
not what we're talking about here. We're not
saying bring ram and bull to be slaughtered for
sacrifice. No. The sacrifice is a spiritual sacrifice.
So what spiritual sacrifice do we offer? The
proclamation of his praises. Amen. The proclamation
of his praises. Look at verse 9. 1 Peter 2 verse
9. Let's read verse 5 and then we read verse
9. It says, you also as living stones are being
built up a spiritual house. A holy priesthood.
So a priest has a function. You are a holy priesthood.
To do what? To offer up spiritual sacrifices
that is acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
And we see it emphasized again in verse 9. Verse
9 says, But you are a chosen generation, a royal
priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people,
that you may what? What does a priest do? He
offers sacrifices, right? Spiritual sacrifices.
And we see emphasis here. A priesthood to do
what? To proclaim. Hallelujah. To proclaim the
praises of him who called you out of darkness
into his marvelous light. Which means that what
the priest in all order honored the Lord of Moses
as he goes into the temple and is doing those
activities. What is he doing? He's pointing at
what? What Jesus will do. In Christ. In his death
and his burial and his resurrection. So also
are we. As priests under the new order. In Christ
Jesus. We offer. What? A spiritual sacrifice.
And I say that this sacrifice we see in verse
9. That you may proclaim the praises of him.
Who called you out of darkness. Into his marvelous
light. So our identity as living stones. That
is, spiritual people that are built up into a
spiritual house comes with a priestly responsibility
of the proclamation of the works of God. Let
me repeat that. Our identity as living stones,
as spiritual people that are built up into a
spiritual house comes alongside with our priestly
responsibility. Of the proclamation of the works
of God. So you are a priest unto God. Because
you believe in Jesus Christ. In other words.
You are a minister of God unto good works. Amen.
You are a minister of God unto good works. Ephesians
chapter 2 verse 10. It says for we are God's
masterpiece. Ephesians 2 verse 10 NLT. It says
for we are God's masterpiece. He has created
us anew in Christ Jesus so that we can do good
things he planned for us long ago. What good
things has he planned long ago? That is his will,
that is his purpose for the believer. These good
things he has planned for us are the work of
ministry, the proclamation of his good works.
2 Corinthians 5, verse 18 to 19, NLT says, and
all of this is a gift from God. Your selection
and your being chosen by God is a product of
God's grace. It's a gift from God who brought
us back to himself through Christ. And God has
given us his tax of what? Of reconciling people
to him. For God was in Christ. Reconciling the
world to himself. No longer counting people's
sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful
message of reconciliation. So the believers have
a responsibility. The reconciliation of men to
God. By the proclamation of his good works. So.
What does it mean to proclaim? What does it mean
to proclaim? When we say proclaim His excellencies,
as the Amplifier will put it, what do we mean?
1 Peter 2 verse 9, in the Orchid Gem, it says,
But ye are a choosing generation, a royal priesthood,
an holy nation, a peculiar people, that ye should
shew forth the praises of Him who hath called
you out of darkness into His marvelous light.
She forth. She forth. The phrase she forth, which
is not a common English in our day today, is
translated into a modern English as set forth
in the Amplified translation. It's also translated
as declare in the NIV. Of course, in the New
King James, we see the word proclaim. And then
in a tippity, which is paraphrase, he uses the
word broadcast. Broadcast. To broadcast something.
What do you broadcast? What do you proclaim?
What do you show forth? What do you declare?
You utter. You manifest. You declare. And all
these are translated into English from a great
word, exangelo. E -X -A -N -G. E -L -O, which
means to tell out or forth, to declare abroad,
to publish, or to make known by praising or proclaiming.
Exangelo, which means to tell forth or forth,
tell out or forth, to declare abroad, to publish,
to make known by praising or proclaiming. This
word exangelo, gelo rather, is from two root
words, ek, e -k, which is a preposition. The
preposition, it explains origin. And angelos,
two words, are brought together to form exangelo.
Ek and angelos, which refers to, angelos refers
to... It refers to a messenger. It is from the
word we get angel from in English, angelos, which
is refers to a messenger, an envoy, you know,
an envoy that is sent out to deliver a responsibility.
One who is sent a messenger, especially from
God. Hallelujah. So tell yourself, am I a messenger
from God? So to shift of all, in other words,
to declare or proclaim his praises, one has to
be sent. You are sent with a definite message.
And that must not be altered. So there's a specific
message. If you are sent on error, you don't
remix the message on the way. Amen? You don't
alter the content of the message. You deliver
as you are given. It's not what I order versus
what I receive. As a deliverer of the message,
you deliver as you receive. That brings us back
to understanding the message. That brings us
back to understanding who sent us. That brings
us back to understanding the modalities of the
delivery. That brings us back to understanding
what the will of God is for the believer. Hallelujah.
The messenger is one from God to declare the
praises of him who was called out of darkness
into his marvelous light. What are the praises
of God? What are the praises of God? The Amplified
Classic says, the wonderful deeds and display
the virtues and perfection of him. Give me amplified
1 Peter 2 verse 9. Yes, it says, so that you
may proclaim the excellencies and he explains
these excellencies as the wonderful deeds and
the virtue and the perfections of who? Of him.
Who is that him there? Of God. Hallelujah. And
we say that that proclaim is what? Is to broadcast.
Is to speak out. Is to announce the wonderful
deeds. And how, what has God done for us? How
did he do what he did for us? The good news translation
use the word wonderful acts of God. How do we
see the wonderful acts of God? Where do we see
the wonderful acts of God? Where? In Christ.
Hallelujah. In Christ, you know the word praises
is arete, A -R -E -T -E, which refers to virtues
or the goodness, that is the quality, the characteristics
of God, who God is. And we see who God is in
what he has done. Hallelujah. We know who God
is by what he has done. And what has God done?
He gave us Christ. So we are to declare the character
of God. Who is who he is. His goodness. His virtue.
And wonderful acts. We see all this in Christ
and what he has accomplished. Colossians 1 .15.
Colossians 1 .15. We see it. We see the goodness
of God. We know God through Christ. He is the
exact living image. the essential manifestation
of the unseen God, the visible representation
of the invisible, the firstborn, the preeminent
one, the sovereign and the originator of all
creation. Hebrews 1 .3 The Son is a radiance,
the only registered, patented, qualified, approved
modality. In which you know God. I just paraphrase.
This verse. The sun is a radiance. And the only
expression of the glory of our awesome God. Reflecting
God's kind of glory. The light being. The brilliant
light of the divine. And the exact representation.
And the perfect imprint of his father. Of his
father. His father's essence. So believers. Our
identity as a choosing people, as royal priesthood,
and a holy nation is to preach and to teach the
wonderful works of God which he has accomplished
in Christ Jesus. This is our life. This is our

We'll continue from here next time. Let's just
close our eyes and begin to pray. If today's
message was a blessing, share it with a friend.
Till next time, be blessed.
