  • HOW ARE YOU DOING, CHURCH FAMILY, I MISS YOU SO MUCH, I

  • HOPE YOU'RE PRAYING FOR ME.

  • I'M PRAYING FOR YOU.

  • I JUST WANT TO TAKE A MINUTE TO GIVE AN INTRODUCTION TO A MAN

  • THAT NEEDS NO INTRODUCTION.

  • WE ALL KNOW NICK VERY WELL.

  • WE ALL LOVE HIM.

  • HE JUST HAD A BABY, SO HE'S GROWING A FAMILY.

  • NICK TRAVELS THE WORLD, DOES EVANGELISM ON AN INCREDIBLE

  • MAGNITUDE.

  • HE HAS A BOOK CALLED "UNSTOPPABLE."

  • I WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU THAT THIS IS A GUY LIKE NO OTHER GUY

  • I KNOW WHO HAS TAKEN A BAD SITUATION, AN UNFORTUNATE

  • SITUATION, WHAT MOST PEOPLE WOULD SAY IS A HANDICAP, AND

  • TURN IT INTO AN ASSET.

  • GOD CAN TURN SOMETHING AMAZING WHAT THE DEVIL MEANT FOR EVIL

  • GOD TURNED INTO SOMETHING VERY POWERFUL.

  • I WANT YOU TO GIVE A WARM INCREDIBLE OVER THE TOP AMAZING

  • MARVELOUS WELCOME TO NICK V.

  • THANK YOU.

  • YEAH, YOU MAY BE SEATED.

  • WELL, GOOD MORNING.

  • MAN, I LOVE COMING BACK TO THE ROCK CHURCH.

  • I WANT TO THANK SO MUCH PASTOR MILES FOR HAVING ME BACK, AND

  • THE PASTORAL TEAM HERE, I WILL NEVER FORGET THE LAST FULL

  • SERMON SUNDAY NIGHT.

  • DO YOU REMEMBER NINE GANG MEMBERS COMING FORWARD AND

  • LAYING THEIR LIVES DOWN AND THEIR KNIVES DOWN FOR THE LORD

  • JESUS CHRIST.

  • I'LL NEVER FORGET THAT NIGHT.

  • ONE OF THE HIGHLIGHTS FOR ME.

  • AND WE HAVEN'T SLOWED DOWN AS A MINISTRY.

  • WE'RE GETTING MORE CLOSER TO GOD'S HEART IN HOW HE WANTS TO

  • STRATEGIZE OUR MOVEMENTS ACROSS THE WORLD AS WE ARE TRULY LIVING

  • IN A VERY SPIRITUALLY SIGNIFICANT TIME IN THE WORLD.

  • NOT ONLY ARE WE LIVING IN A SPIRITUALLY SIGNIFICANT TIME IN

  • THE WORLD, BUT WE HAVE SEEN OVER AND OVER AGAIN DOORS OPEN UP FOR

  • OUR MINISTRY "LIFE OUT LIMBS" AROUND THE WORLD.

  • I WANT TO TALK A BIT ABOUT THAT BECAUSE WE ARE VERY EXCITED.

  • BEFORE I MOVE FORWARD, THOUGH, ABOUT THE PLANS THAT WE

  • IMPLEMENTED THIS YEAR, IN PLANNING 2013 THE GREATEST JOY I

  • CAN SHARE WITH YOU MY WIFE AND I GOT MARRIED ON THE 12TH OF

  • FEBRUARY 2012.

  • [APPLAUSE]

  • ON THE 13TH OF FEBRUARY 2013 WE

  • WERE GIVEN BY GOD OUR BABY BOY, KEOSHI JAMES VUJICIC.

  • THAT'S HIM RIGHT THERE.

  • SO, SO THANKFUL, AND THEY ARE JUST THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE

  • IN MY LIFE.

  • MY WIFE IS THE MOST AMAZING WOMAN OF GOD THAT I'VE EVER MET,

  • AND WILL BE UNTIL I GET TO HEAVEN, AND ADORING HER, SERVING

  • HER AS HER HUSBAND IS JUST SECOND TO MY PRIORITY OF LOVING

  • GOD AS MY FATHER, SECOND, LOVING MY FAMILY.

  • THIRDLY, IMPLEMENTING WHATEVER GOD'S CALLING IS ON MY LIFE,

  • AMEN?

  • SO A FAMILY TAKES PRIORITY, AND I'M JUST SO THRILLED TO HEAR

  • THAT PASTOR MILES IS ON A LITTLE BIT OF AN SABBATICAL, SO GIVE

  • HIM A HUG FOR ME WHEN YOU SEE IT.

  • AND NORTH CAMPUS, THANK YOU EVERY FOR WATCHING MY LINE.

  • IN 2012 MY WIFE AND I, WE WERE SO EXCITED, COOL, NOW WE CAN

  • TRAVEL THE WORLD AND PREACH THE GOSPEL TOGETHER, AND ONE OF THE

  • BIG THINGS THAT REALLY DREW MY HEART INTO HER AMONGST SO MANY

  • OTHER THINGS, OUR LOVE STORY IS IN THE BOOK "UNSTOPPABLE."

  • CHECK OUT THE RESOURCES OUT THERE, HOW WE MET WAS REALLY

  • COOL AT A SMALL SPEAKING ENGAGEMENT.

  • IT WAS LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT.

  • I COULDN'T FEEL MY LEGS WHEN I SAW HER, PALMS SWEATY, THE WHOLE

  • DEAL.

  • IT'S THIS REALLY COOL STORY.

  • WE WERE LOOKING IN 2013, AND WE, FUNDING THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE

  • UNIQUE OPPORTUNITIES THAT GOD HAS GIVEN THE MINISTRY WHERE I

  • CAN GO INTO PLACES LIKE CHINA, AND BE INVITED BY THE

  • GOVERNMENT, SPEAK TO 40,000 PEOPLE IN UNIVERSITY CAMPUSES

  • WHERE SADLY COLLEGE STUDENTS WERE JUMPING OFF BUILDINGS

  • BECAUSE THEY WERE AFRAID THERE WOULD BE NO JOBS AT THE END OF

  • THEIR STUDIES.

  • TOP 1% OF STUDENTS WERE COMMITTING SUICIDE.

  • WE WENT THERE, AND BY THE GRACE OF GOD THE CAMPUSES WE WERE ABLE

  • TO SHARE IN, 80% OF THOSE SUICIDE RATES DROPPED STRAIGHT

  • AWAY, AND THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT ASKED ME TO GO BACK.

  • THEY PUT ME ON TV TO 40 MILLION HOUSEHOLDS LATER, AND WE ARE

  • JUST SO THANKFUL FOR THAT OPPORTUNITY.

  • WITH THAT TRACT RECORD DOORS HAVE OPENING UP ALL ACROSS THE

  • WORLD INCLUDING PLACES LIKE VIETNAM.

  • US UNDERSTANDING THE UNIQUE CALLING WHERE GOD HAS CALLED

  • LIFE OUT LIMBS MINISTRY TO PREACH TO 7 BILLION PEOPLE.

  • MY GOD IS BIG, AND HE ALWAYS PAYS FOR WHAT HE ORDERS.

  • HE HAS ASKED AND CALLED ME AND MY WIFE TO TOGETHER PREACH TO

  • 7 BILLION PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD.

  • I JUST WANT YOU TO BE ENCOURAGED AND UNDERSTANDING IF YOU, FIRST

  • OF ALL, DO NOT FEEL THAT YOUR EVANGELICALLY IMMERSED AND

  • ENGAGED WITHIN YOUR CHURCH COMMUNITY SAN DIEGO, TO GET

  • ENGAGED.

  • WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT THAT.

  • PUT YOUR HAND UP IF YOU'RE IN MINISTRY THROUGH THIS CHURCH

  • PARTICULARLY, ACTIVELY?

  • AWESOME.

  • PUT YOUR HAND UP IF YOU CAN SAY IN EACH OF YOUR MINISTRIES THAT

  • IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE MORE PEOPLE HELPING YOU TO DO WHAT

  • GOD IS WANTING YOU TO DO.

  • AWESOME.

  • THE REST OF YOU, I'M GOING TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT THAT AS WELL.

  • IT IS JUST AWESOME TO SEE GOD IMPLEMENTING THE CALLING AND

  • PURPOSE HE HAS SPECIFICALLY FOR YOU.

  • WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT THAT.

  • ME AND MY WIFE, WE THOUGHT, WELL, OKAY, LET'S DO 27

  • COUNTRIES.

  • AND WE PRAYED ABOUT IT, AND WE LAID IT DOWN BEFORE THE LORD,

  • AND WE SAID, OKAY, WE WERE PLANNING THAT IN THE FIRST

  • QUARTER OF THIS YEAR WE WOULD DO ABOUT NINE OR TEN COUNTRIES, AND

  • THEN SORT OF OVER HERE IN AMERICA WE'LL DO SOMETHING LIKE

  • ANOTHER 13 COUNTRIES PLUS.

  • AND SO WE LOCKED IN THE STADIUM IT'S.

  • TOLD OUR COORDINATORS THAT WE'RE DOING IT.

  • GOD HAS CALLED US TO PREACH THE GOSPEL TO 300 MILLION ACTUAL

  • SOULS.

  • WE GO INTO A NATION WE DO FOUR THINGS.

  • WE DO A STADIUM, A PRESS CONFERENCE, A GOVERNMENTAL

  • MEETING AND A HUMANITARIAN MEETING THAT IS BROADCAST.

  • I'M SO BLESSED THAT IN NATIONS WHERE SYSTEMS ARE NOT WELCOME

  • ALL THE TIME THEY PUT IT ON THE TELEVISION.

  • IN 30% OF THE COUNTRIES WE'RE DOING THIS YEAR IS BROADCASTED

  • TO 80% THE COUNTRY POPULATION.

  • SO WE JUST CAME BACK FROM THIS LEG, AND 140 MILLION PEOPLE

  • INCLUDING 17 MILLION IN VIETNAM, IN VIETNAM, NO ONE HAS EVER BEEN

  • ABLE TO MENTION GOD, HEAVEN, JESUS, SALVATION, ON NATIONAL

  • TV.

  • GOT PICKED UP BY AP ASSOCIATED PRESS, YAHOO, CNN, AND FOX,

  • THEIR WEBSITE AS WELL.

  • THE HEADLINES, THIS LIMBLESS AUSTRALIAN EVANGELIST, SOMETHING

  • LIKE THIS.

  • THE COOL THING IS HAVING NO LIMBS, IF I DO SOMETHING WRONG

  • NO ONE IS GOING TO HANDCUFF ME.

  • I'M SPEAKING FAST.

  • I WANT TO YOU KEEP UP WITH ME AT THIS PACE BECAUSE I HAVE A LOT

  • TO SHARE.

  • I UNDERSTAND THAT MANY OF YOU HAVE HEARD MY TESTIMONY BEFORE.

  • PUT YOUR HAND UP IF YOU HAVE SEEN ME SPEAK BEFORE.

  • PUT YOUR HAND DOWN.

  • PUT YOUR HAND UP IF YOU HAVE NOT HEARD ME SPEAK BEFORE.

  • PUT YOUR HAND UP IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST TIME TO THIS CHURCH,

  • WELCOME.

  • DEFINITELY COME BACK.

  • SO IN ORGANIZING ALL THESE COUNTRIES, THEN WE FOUND OUT

  • THAT ME AND MY WIFE, WE WERE PLANNING ON NOT HAVING CHILDREN

  • UNTIL LATER.

  • WELL, GOD VETOED THAT, AND IN SUCH AN AWESOME BLESSING HAVING

  • KEOSHI IN OUR LIFE.

  • WE HAD THE CHOICE TO EITHER CANCEL THE STADIUMS, PRESS

  • CONFERENCES, BLAH-BLAH-BLAH, OR CONTINUE ON.

  • MY WIFE AND I FELT THAT THIS YEAR WOULD BE VERY DIFFICULT

  • YEAR IF I HAD TO GO WITHOUT THEM.

  • WE BELIEVE THAT GOD WANTED ME TO GO STILL.

  • AND LEAVING AN EIGHT-WEEK-OLD BOY WAS MY FIRST, JUST WAS HARD.

  • I JUST HAVE AN AMAZING WOMAN OF GOD STANDING BY ME IN MINISTRY.

  • SHE GOT THE ARTICLE, NICK'S ON YAHOO.

  • SHE SAID, BABE, IF YOU WERE GONE FOR THE WHOLE MONTH, JUST FOR

  • THE FRUIT OF VIETNAM THAT HAPPENED IN A WINDOW OF 48

  • HOURS, IT WAS WORTH IT.

  • THIS IS INCREDIBLE.

  • WE LIVE IN AN AWESOME TIME, SO GO, BABY, GO, IN OTHER WORDS.

  • SHE'S JUST AWESOME.

  • I WANT TO OPEN THAT UP AND ASK YOU FOR PRAYERS BECAUSE WE'RE

  • GOING TO 9 OF 13 COUNTRIES OF SOUTH AMERICA IN A FOUR-WEEK

  • SPAN.

  • EFFECTIVELY REACHING 140 MILLION MORE PEOPLE THIS YEAR.

  • 5% OF THE WORLD THROUGH OF OUR MINISTRY WILL HEAR THE GOSPEL.

  • WE'RE BLESSED.

  • WE'RE HONORED, WE'RE ENGAGED, AND WE UNDERSTAND THAT IT'S A

  • HARD THING.

  • MINISTRY IS NOT EASY.

  • CAN I HEAR AN AMEN.

  • YES, IT IS SO IMPORTANT TO TRY AS MUCH AS YOU CAN TO FIND YOUR

  • BALANCE IN WORSHIPING GOD FIRST AS A CHILD OF GOD.

  • HAVING THAT FAMILY AS A PRIORITY AND THEN MINISTRY, AND NO ONE

  • WILL EVER FIND A PERFECT BALANCE, BUT I WANT TO URGE YOU

  • IN UNDERSTANDING WHY WE DO THIS.

  • IT IS ALL ABOUT LOVE, L-O-V-E.

  • SAY LOVE.

  • WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT LOVE, I KNOW I HAVEN'T PRESENTED

  • ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE THE OTHER PREVIOUS SERVICE.

  • I WAS BLESSED, AND I'M SURE YOU WILL BE AS WELL.

  • TURN TO MATTHEW 7.

  • WE'RE GOING TO READ FROM THREE PASSAGES, ESPECIALLY IF YOU

  • HAVEN'T HEARD ME SPEAK BEFORE.

  • I'M GOING TO QUICKLY COVER MY TESTIMONY IN A FAST NUTSHELL FOR

  • THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW ABOUT MY STORY.

  • I'M 30 YEARS OLD, BORN IN AUSTRALIA.

  • NO ARMS, NO LEGS, BORN THIS WAY FOR NO MEDICAL REASON.

  • MY BROTHER AND SISTER BORN WITH LIMBS.

  • MY DAD WAS A PASTOR.

  • HAS BEEN FOR 27 YEARS.

  • HEARD ABOUT THE WORD OF GOD, HEARD ABOUT THE LOVE OF GOD,

  • THERE WERE TIMES WHERE I WAS HAPPY AS A CHILD, BUT I ENTERED

  • DEPRESSION AS AGE 8.

  • I WAS IN DEPRESSION FOR FIVE YEARS FEELING THAT GOOD EITHER

  • WASN'T REAL, DIDN'T CARE ABOUT ME, DIDN'T LOVE ME, I WASN'T

  • GOOD ENOUGH.

  • I WASN'T PRAYING HARD ENOUGH, ALL THESE LIES.

  • WHATEVER THOUGHTS COME INTO OUR MIND, IF IT DOESN'T LINE UP WITH

  • GOD, IT ISN'T FROM GOD.

  • WE KNOW THE PRINCIPALITIES ON THE EARTH ARE TRYING TO TAKE OUR

  • HOPE.

  • JEREMIAH 29:11, GOD SAYS HE HAS A PLAN, HOPE, AND A FUTURE.

  • IF I WANT TO GIVE A GIFT, AND IF IT'S A GIFT THAT'S WRAPPED UP

  • FOR YOU TO ACTUALLY BENEFIT FROM ME GIVING YOU A GIFT YOU HAVE TO

  • RECEIVE IT.

  • YOU HAVE TO OPEN IT.

  • YOU HAVE TO OPEN UP THE BOX.

  • YOU HAVE TO GET THE MANUAL OUT.

  • THE MANUAL FOR LIFE IS THE WORD OF GOD.

  • THERE IS NO ONE GREATER.

  • IF YOU HAVEN'T FOUND YOUR PURPOSE YET AND YOU'RE STILL

  • LOOKING, YOU KNOW THERE IS A GREATER PERSON THAN JUST BEING A

  • GOOD PERSON.

  • YOU KNOW THERE MAY BE SOMETHING BEYOND THIS LIFE, THIS

  • 60-YEAR-OLD LIFE.

  • YOU HAVE BEEN CREATED FOR GOD FOR AN ETERNAL PURPOSE.

  • IF YOU FOUND THAT PEACE AND HOPE YET I WANT TO ENCOURAGE TO YOU

  • SAY THAT THERE IS NO ONE BETTER TO TELL YOU YOUR PURPOSE THAN

  • THE ONE WHO CREATED YOU.

  • SO STOP LOOKING AT YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES, JUST LOOK UP.

  • FOR ME IT WAS VERY HARD TO BELIEVE THAT GOD COULD USE A MAN

  • WITHOUT ARMS AND LEGS.

  • AND THAT GOD COULD HAVE SOMETHING BETTER THAN NOT TO

  • GIVE ME ARMS AND LEGS.

  • IF I WAS DYING TO CANCER, TO ME THERE WOULD BE NOTHING BETTER

  • THAN FOR GOD TO HEAL ME.

  • I'VE EVEN MIRACLES.

  • I'VE SEEN BLIND PEOPLE, DEAF PEOPLE, AND YES, I HAVE A PAIR

  • OF SHOES IN MY CLOSET JUST IN CASE HE SAYS YES.

  • BUT I DIDN'T KNOW AS A CHILD, NOR DID MY PARENTS KNOW THAT GOD

  • WOULD USE ME THE WAY I AM TO SHOW THE MIRACLE THAT HAPPENS ON

  • THE INSIDE WHICH IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN AN OUTSIDE

  • MIRACLE.

  • YOU ALL HAVE ARMS AND LEGS, BUT LOOK AT YOU.

  • I'M KIDDING.

  • YOU CAN HAVE EVERYTHING YOU THINK YOU NEED, AND ALL THE

  • THINGS THAT YOU WANT, BUT STILL FEEL EMPTY.

  • YOU CAN HAVE THE GREATEST LIFE ON THIS EARTH AND HAVE THE BEST

  • REPUTATION, THE BEST FRIENDS, THE BEST SPOUSE, THE BEST

  • FAMILY, THE BEST GRANDCHILDREN, THE BEST OF EVERYTHING AND HAVE

  • EVERYTHING, BUT IF YOU'RE 90 YEARS OLD, YOU'RE NOT--I'M NOT

  • TAKING MY HOUSE UP THERE.

  • I GOT A MANSION.

  • MY DRIVEWAY IS MADE OF GOLD UP THERE.

  • ALL RIGHT.

  • FORGET ABOUT BLAH-BLAH-BLAH.

  • WHAT ELSE, I'M NOT TAKING MY CAR.

  • I'M PROBABLY GOING TO BE ABLE TO FLY OR TRANSPORT MYSELF WHEREVER

  • I WANT TO GO IN HEAVEN.

  • I'M NOT TAKING A SINGLE THING FROM THIS EARTH.

  • AND THE MOST IMPORTANT PEOPLE AT THE FUNERAL, THEY DO A BEAUTIFUL

  • SERVICE AT THE FUNERAL, THEY DID THIS, THIS, THIS, THIS, THIS,

  • AND THIS, THIS, THIS, THIS, AND THIS.

  • THE ANGEL OF THE LORD COMES OVER THAT SOUL AND SAYS, FOOL.

  • FOOL.

  • WHAT KIND OF HOPE IS THERE IF WE CAN ONLY BELIEVE IN 90 YEARS

  • THERE IS SOMETHING MORE.

  • IT'S NOT A COPING MECHANISM TO BELIEVE IN HEAVEN; IT'S HOPE.

  • IF I DON'T KNOW TODAY WHERE I'M GOING FOR SURE WHEN I'M NOT HERE

  • I COULD FALL DEAD ON THIS PLATFORM RIGHT NOW.

  • NO ONE NOTES THAT.

  • NO ONE CAN PROMISE ME MY TOMORROW.

  • BUT IF I LET THE LORD THROUGH THE BEGINNING TO THE END HOLD MY

  • ETERNITY IN HIS HANDS.

  • NOT JUST A GOOD PERSON WHO SAYS, OH, I KNOW THE WAY TO HEAVEN.

  • HE SAYS, I AM THE WAY TO HEAVEN.

  • I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, THE LIGHT.

  • I AM HOLY.

  • HE FACED THE DEVIL FACE TO FACE AND WON.

  • HE DIED ON THE CROSS FOR OUR SINS.

  • EACH OF US HAVE SINNED BECAUSE OF ADAM AND EVE.

  • THEY FELL INTO SIN.

  • THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BE THERE WITH GOD FOREVER AND GOD COULD

  • HAVE MADE US LIKE ROBOTS.

  • WE LOVE YOU, WE LOVE YOU, BUT HE CHOSE TO HAVE A FAMILY WHO

  • CHOOSES TO BELIEVE WHAT HE SAYS.

  • ADAM AND EVE, THE MOMENT THEY DIDN'T BELIEVE WHAT GOD SAID,

  • THAT WAS AN ACT OF DISOBEDIENCE.

  • THEY HEARD THE LIE FROM THE SERPENT SATAN.

  • GOD WITH HIS FORE-KNOWLEDGE KNEW ALL THE PEOPLE WHO WOULD BE

  • ALIVE UP TO THIS POINT, AND ALL THE BILLIONS OF PEOPLE WHO WILL

  • BE ALIVE ON EARTH UNTIL ONE DAY, ONE DAY WHERE EVERY PERSON ON

  • THE PLANET WILL HAVE A CHANCE TO HEAR ABOUT JESUS AND WHAT GOD

  • SAYS, AND THEREFORE HAVE A CHOICE TO BELIEVE IN HEAVEN WITH

  • JESUS THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AN LIFE OR NOT.

  • GOD WANTED TO GIVE US ALL A CHANCE TO SPEND ETERNITY WITH

  • HIM.

  • EVERYONE IS BORN INTO SIN.

  • YOU DON'T KNOW ANYONE PERFECT ON EARTH.

  • THAT'S WHY YOU DON'T KNOW ANYONE WHO IS LIVING ON EARTH FOREVER.

  • BECAUSE THE LAW WAS SET ON THIS PLANET IF YOU HAVE SINNED YOU

  • WILL DIE.

  • WE ALL HAVE SINNED, WE ALL HAVE A CHANCE TO HEAR WHAT GOD SAYS

  • IN THE WORD AND BELIEVE IT OR NOT.

  • FOR ME, NO ARMS, NO LEGS, I'M NOT BELIEVING THAT BECAUSE THIS

  • DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.

  • AT 15 YEARS OLD I READ ABOUT A MAN WHO WAS BORN BLIND, KNOWING

  • WHY HE WAS BORN THAT WAY, JOHN 9, THE FIRST THREE VERSES, CAN

  • YOU IMAGINE A BLIND MAN HEARING ABOUT THIS, HEARING HIS VOICE.

  • HE CAN'T SEE THEM.

  • PEOPLE SAY WHY WAS HE BORN THAT WAY?

  • THAT WAS MY QUESTION.

  • WHY, GOD, WHY?

  • AGE TEN, I TRIED TO COMMIT SUICIDE BECAUSE HE DIDN'T ANSWER

  • ME.

  • I HAD NO ANSWER, AND I HAD NO HOPE.

  • THANK GOD I'M STILL HERE.

  • LOOK HOW MUCH I WOULD HAVE MISSED OUT ON IF I GAVE UP.

  • I WANT YOU TO KNOW NEVER GIVE UP ON GOD BECAUSE HE'S NEVER GOING

  • TO GIVE UP ON YOU.

  • HE LOVES YOU.

  • HE HAS A PLAN FOR YOU.

  • NO, NO, NO, HE DOESN'T.

  • YES, WHEN I WAS IN INDIA IN MUMBAI I WENT TO THE BROTHELS

  • WHERE THEY HAVE SEX SLAVES.

  • WE WENT INTO EACH HOUSE, AND I WENT INTO A HOUSE OF A

  • 95-YEAR-OLD PARALYZED LADY.

  • SHE HAD NOT WALKED FOR FOUR YEARS.

  • GOD DID A MIRACLE RIGHT IN FRONT OF OUR FACES.

  • WE'LL PUT IT ON YouTube.

  • YOU CAN SEE HOW GOD GAVE HER SUPERNATURAL STRENGTH NOT

  • WALKING FOR FOUR YEARS, NOW SHE'S JUMPING UP AND DOWN.

  • SHE WASN'T JUST AN OLD WOMAN WHO HAPPENED TO BE THERE.

  • SHE WAS THE PERSON WHO STARTED 150 BROTHEL HOUSES 45 YEARS

  • PRIOR.

  • THE ONE RESPONSIBLE IN DESTROYING THOUSANDS OF GIRLS'

  • LIVES.

  • TALK ABOUT THE WONDERFUL GRACE AND MERCY AND LOVE PURSUING US

  • ALL.

  • IF GOD LOVES HER AND GAVE HER A MIRACLE, GOD HAS A PLAN FOR YOU

  • TO NOT BELIEVE THE LIE THAT GOD DOESN'T LOVE YOU FOR YOUR

  • RIGHTEOUSNESS, I CAN DO SOMETHING FOR HIM.

  • YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING FOR GOD.

  • HE IS GOD.

  • GOD HAS A PLAN FOR YOU.

  • GOD HAD A PLAN FOR ME, AND THE WAY THAT HE SHOWED IT TO ME WAS

  • WHEN HE SAID THIS MAN WAS BORN BLIND SO THAT THE WORKS OF GOD

  • CAN BE SHOWN IN THIS MAN'S LIFE.

  • WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THIS IS THE BLIND MAN COULD NOT SEE JESUS.

  • HE HEARD HIS ANSWER.

  • JESUS SPIT IN THE DIRT, MADE A CLAY, AND PUT IT ON THE MAN'S

  • EYES.

  • WHAT IF YOU COULD SEE ME AND I PUT MUD ON YOUR EYES.

  • WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

  • WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

  • CAN YOU IMAGINE THE MORE LEVEL OF FEAR HE WAS EXPERIENCING OR

  • THE MORE LEVEL OF FAITH REQUIRED TO ACTUALLY TRUST SOMEONE YOU'VE

  • NEVER SEEN, NEVER HEARD OF BEFORE SPITTING INTO THE DIRT,

  • AND YOU FEEL THIS MUD BEING PUT ON YOUR FACE.

  • HE DIDN'T SAY, HEY, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHO ARE YOU?

  • WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

  • WELL, TELL ME WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO, AND THEN WHAT, I CAN BE

  • READY, THEN YOU CAN DO IT.

  • THAT'S LIKE US.

  • WHEN YOU HEAR GOD KNOCKING ON THE DOOR OF YOUR HEART, AND HE

  • SEES I HAVE A PLAN FOR YOU, I GOT NEW LIFE FOR YOU, I CAN GIVE

  • YOU A NEW MIND.

  • I CAN GIVE YOU STRENGTH.

  • HEAVEN IS THERE FOR YOU.

  • SOMETIMES WHEN CROSSING OUR ARMS LIKE THIS AND YOU'RE SAYING,

  • WELL GOD, GIVE ME THE A, B, THIS, AND X, Y, Z OF YOUR PLAN,

  • AND THEN I WILL WHAT, TRUST YOU.

  • THAT'S NOT FAITH.

  • THE BLIND MAN HAS FAITH, AND HE ALLOWED JESUS TO DO WHATEVER HE

  • WILL.

  • AND HIS PERFECT PLAN WAS DONE BECAUSE THE BLIND MAN ALLOWED

  • GOD TO DO HIS PERFECT WILL.

  • AT 15 I SAID, GOD, YOU DON'T HAVE TO TELL ME HOW YOU'RE GOING

  • TO USE ME.

  • I PRAY FOR ARMS AND LEGS, BUT SET ME FREE FROM THE BIGGEST

  • DISABILITIES OF ALL.

  • DEATH AND SIN.

  • FREE ME FROM THOSE BIG PROBLEMS, MUCH BIGGER THAN HAVING NO ARMS

  • AND NO LEGS. I WANT TO LIVE FOR YOUR PURPOSE, YOUR PLAN, NOT MY

  • PLAN.

  • DO ME ONE FLAVOR, LORD, I ASK, IF YOU DON'T GIVE ME ARMS AND

  • LEGS, USE ME.

  • TO THIS DAY WE KNOW OVER A HALF MILLION SOULS SAYING YES TO

  • JESUS THROUGH THE MINISTRY OF LIFE OUT LIMBS OVER THE LAST TEN

  • YEARS.

  • [APPLAUSE]

  • SO YOU CAN HAVE EVERYTHING, BUT

  • NOW THAT I'M FOUNDED IN THE TRUTH I'M NOT HOPING THAT MY

  • HOPE WORKS.

  • YOU GET THAT?

  • I'M NOT HOPING THAT MY HOPE WORKS.

  • I KNOW THAT I'M GOING TO HEAVEN BECAUSE JESUS CHRIST ROSE

  • HIMSELF FROM THE DEAD, AND HE SAYS THAT HE'S GOING TO RAISE

  • ME.

  • NOW THE GREATEST TWO COMMANDMENTS OF BECOMING A

  • BELIEVER, AND I NOW WANT TO MOVE FORWARD WITH WHAT I WANT TO

  • SHARE WITH YOU IS THIS.

  • LOVE THE LORD GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, ALL YOUR SOUL, AND, OH,

  • OH, OH DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE ORDER.

  • LOVE THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, MIND, SOUL, STRENGTH.

  • IT'S AUSTRALIAN VERSION, ALL RIGHT?

  • SO HERE IT IS, WE'RE GOING TO LOVE GOD.

  • WHY?

  • BECAUSE HE SET ME FREE.

  • AUTOMATICALLY IF SOMEONE HAS GIVEN ME SUCH AN AMAZING GIFT

  • THAT JESUS CHRIST DIED ON THE CROSS FOR ME KNOWING THAT I AM A

  • SINNER BUT I'M ASKING TO FORGIVE ME AND RENEW ME, HE'S WITH ME, I

  • DON'T HAVE TO TACKLE THIS ON MY OWN.

  • I KNOW HE'S GOING TO BE WITH ME.

  • THERE IS NO ONE GREATER THAN MY JESUS.

  • BUT THE COOLEST THING IS THIS, HE SAID, LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS

  • YOURSELF.

  • WHY?

  • SO THAT OTHERS MAY KNOW HIM.

  • EVERYBODY SAY LOVE.

  • ALL RIGHT, SO LET'S READ MATTHEW 7 REAL QUICK.

  • VERSE 24-26.

  • ARE YOU THERE?

  • THEREFORE WHOEVER HEARS THESE SAYINGS OF MINE, THIS IS JESUS,

  • AND DOES THEM, I WILL MAKE HIM OR LIKE AN HIM TO A WISE MAN

  • I'LL MAKE HIM A WISE MAN WHO BUILT HIS HOUSE ON THE ROCK.

  • EVERYBODY SAY ROCK.

  • AND THE RAIN DESCENDED, THE FLOODS CAME, AND THE WINDS BLEW

  • AND BEAT ON THAT HOUSE.

  • EVERYBODY SAY BEAT ON THAT HOUSE.

  • AND IT DID NOT FALL FOR IT WAS FOUNDED ON THE ROCK.

  • EVERYBODY SAY ROCK.

  • BUT EVERYONE WHO HEARS THESE SAYINGS OF MINE AND DOES NOT DO

  • THEM WILL BE LIKE A FOOLISH MAN WHO BUILT HIS HOUSE ON THE SAND.

  • AND THE RAIN DESCENDED, THE FLOODS CAME, THE WINDS BLEW AND

  • BEAT ON THAT HOUSE AND FELL GREAT WAS IT'S FALL.

  • TO PUT THIS PERSPECTIVE IN OUR LIFE IN DECIDING TO LIVE FOR

  • JESUS CHRIST, WHAT WOULD YOU RATHER HAVE?

  • 100,000-SQUARE-FOOT MANSION WITH NO FOUNDATION AT ALL RIGHT ON

  • THE SAND IN FRONT OF THE OCEAN, IT'S BEAUTIFUL.

  • BUT IT HAS 20,000 ROOMS AND THE CEILINGS ARE SO HIGH.

  • AND WITH IT COMES THIS, THAT, BLAH-BLAH-BLAH.

  • OR WOULD YOU PREFER TO TAKE A 10-SQUARE ROOM ON THE ROCK THAT

  • WILL NEVER EVER FAIL YOU.

  • THE SECOND ONE.

  • IT'S LIKE OUR LIFE.

  • IF I JUST HAD THIS, IF I JUST HAD THAT, THEN I WOULD BE HAPPY.

  • NO, MY LIFE IS BUILT ON THE LORD, MY ROCK, MY EVERYTHING, MY

  • SAVIOR, MY MASTER.

  • I AM A SERVANT NOT A SPEAKER.

  • I AM A SERVANT.

  • AND MY MINISTRY IS SPEAKING.

  • BECAUSE I LOVE GOD, AND I LOVE THE WORLD.

  • WHEN I FIND HEAVEN, AND I KNOW I DON'T HAVE TO HOPE ABOUT MY HOPE

  • ANY MORE, THAT I HAVE HOPE, AND I HAVE THIS, I WANT THE WORLD TO

  • KNOW THAT THERE IS HOPE FOR THEM, TOO.

  • THAT HAPPENED 11 YEARS AGO IN FRONT OF SOPHOMORE STUDENT.

  • WITHIN THREE MINUTES A GIRL CAME UP TO ME, HUGGED ME ON THE

  • SHOULDER AND WHISPERED IN MY EAR AND SAID THANK YOU.

  • NO ONE HAS EVER TOLD ME THAT THEY LOVED ME.

  • NO ONE EVER TOLD ME THAT I WAS BEAUTIFUL THE WAY THAT I AM.

  • I WAS SHOCKED BECAUSE IF MY PARENTS HAD NEVER TOLD ME THAT I

  • WAS LOVED, THAT I WAS BEAUTIFUL THE WAY I AM, I WOULD HAVE GONE

  • THROUGH WITH MY SUICIDE.

  • GOD MADE US WONDERFULLY AND FEARFULLY, AND NEVER MIND THE

  • ENEMIES WHO ARE TRYING TO BRING YOU DOWN.

  • STOP LOOKING LEFT AND RIGHT AND JUST LOOK UP.

  • THAT WAS THE LOVE OF THE WORLD THAT GOD GAVE ME.

  • GOD, GIVE ME YOUR EYES OF COMPASSION.

  • THE SAME COMPASSION YOU HAVE FOR THEM?

  • I WILL LAY MY LIFE DOWN IN SERVICE TO YOU THAT OTHERS MAY

  • KNOW HIM.

  • SOMEONE FAMOUS, I CAN'T REMEMBER WHO HE WAS, THAT'S HOW FAMOUS HE

  • WAS IN MY BOOK.

  • BUT SOMEONE FAMOUS SAID I BREACH THE GOSPEL ALL THE TIME AND

  • SOMETIMES I USE WORDS.

  • THE REASON WHY ANYONE IN THIS CHURCH IS ACTIVELY IN THAT

  • MINISTRY OF YOURS IS BECAUSE THEY LOVE SAN DIEGO.

  • THEY DON'T WANT JUST SOME WEIRDOES OF SAN DIEGO COMING TO

  • HEAVEN.

  • THEY WANT ALL WEIRDOES, ALL ORPHANS, ALL DRUG-ADDICTED

  • PEOPLE, THEY WILL DO ALL THAT THEY CAN WITH THE 300 PLUS

  • MINISTRIES OUT THERE.

  • THEY WANT THAT DIVORCE COUPLE TO COME TO THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.

  • THEY WANT EVERYONE IN SAN DIEGO TO COME TO HEAVEN, AND THEY'VE

  • DONE THIS.

  • GOD, THANK YOU FOR HOPE.

  • HELP ME TO BE AN INSTRUMENT IN YOUR HANDS THAT I CAN SHARE YOUR

  • LOVE IN ACTION.

  • CAUSE YOU DON'T LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR ENOUGH TO COME TO

  • HEAVEN UNTIL YOU GO AND KNOCK ON THEIR DOOR AND INVITE THEM TO

  • YOUR HOME ONCE.

  • OR CHURCH, CHURCH!

  • NO, NO, NO--YES!

  • YES.

  • THE ROCK CHURCH IN ITS LEADERSHIP AND UNDERSTANDING WHY

  • THEY HAVE MULTIPLE CAMPUSES IS UNDERSTANDING THAT IN DIFFERENT

  • COMMUNITIES WE WANT TO SPREAD THAT LOVE TO ALL PEOPLE.

  • HOW ABOUT YOU?

  • MAY GOD GIVE US THE COMPASSION THAT IF YOU'RE NOT IN A MINISTRY

  • YET GET GOING.

  • SORRY.

  • IT'S TIME!

  • IF GOD CAN USE ME WITHOUT LIMBS, TELL ME HOW CAN HE NOT USE YOU?

  • ASK GOD TO CHANGE YOUR HEART.

  • DON'T GET TOO BUSY FOR GOD.

  • BEING UNDER SATAN'S YOKE.

  • HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW HAVE MANSIONS RIGHT ON THE SAND?

  • THEY'RE HAPPY IN LIFE.

  • THEY DON'T NEED ANYTHING.

  • BUT THEY DON'T REALIZE WHAT'S COMING.

  • IT'S NOT GOING TO LAST.

  • TURN WITH ME TO 1 CORINTHIANS 12.

  • BEFORE I READ THIS I WANT TO SAY THIS.

  • ONE OF THE BIGGEST REQUESTS I EVER ASKED GOD AND ASKED HIM WHY

  • DO YOU LOVE US SO MUCH?

  • HE DIDN'T HAVE TO MAKE THAT MADAM AND PIMP WALK, BUT DID HE.

  • EVEN WHEN YOU'RE RUNNING 100 MPH IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION GOD IS

  • PURSUING YOU.

  • I CAN'T GET THAT OUT OF MY MIND.

  • BUT WHEN MY WIFE WAS PREGNANT WITH KEOSHI I SAW A LITTLE

  • GLIMPSE OF JUST HOW MUCH HE LOVES US.

  • WHEN I FELT MY LITTLE BABY KICK, AND I PUT MY FOOT ON MY WIFE'S

  • BELLY AND FELT HIM KICK FOR THE FIRST TIME...

  • I HAD NOT SEEN HIM.

  • I HAD NOT HEARD HIM.

  • I HAD NOT TOUCHED HIM.

  • HE CAN'T DO ANYTHING THAT COULD MAKE ME LOVE HIM MORE, NOTHING.

  • WHEN I FELT HIM KICK TEARS CAME TO MY EYES AND OUT LOUD I TOLD

  • MY WIFE, I LOVE HIM.

  • I LOVE HIM.

  • IF YOU HAVE CHILDREN YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.

  • IT'S A FEELING THAT YOU DON'T KNOW UNTIL THAT HAPPENS.

  • IT'S THE WAY THAT GOD WANTS US TO KNOW THAT HE DOES LOVE US.

  • AND GOD HAS A CALLING IN MINISTRY FOR ALL OF US.

  • NOT ONLY WOULD WE FIND EVERYTHING WE NEED.

  • I DON'T NEED ARMS AND LEGS.

  • I NEED PEACE.

  • WHERE DOES MY PEACE COME FROM?

  • HIM.

  • I NEED STRENGTH.

  • WHERE DOES MY STRENGTH COME FROM?

  • A POSITIVE ATTITUDE.

  • NO.

  • IT'S THE PERSONAL ENCOUNTER WITH GOD HIMSELF THROUGH THE HOLY

  • SPIRIT, AND GROWING, EVERYBODY SAY GROWING.

  • GROWING IN YOUR ACTIVE PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, READING

  • THE WORD, COMING TO CHURCH SERVING.

  • THAT'S WHAT TRANSFORMED ME.

  • I DON'T NEED STUFF.

  • I NEED HIM.

  • BUT I NEED TO FULFILL THE PURPOSE THAT HE HAS FOR ME.

  • 1 CORINTHIANS 12:4.

  • THERE ARE DIVERSITIES OF GIFTS BUT THE SAME SPIRIT.

  • THERE ARE DIFFERENCES OF MINISTRIES, BUT THE SAME LORD.

  • THERE ARE DIVERSITIES OF ACTIVITIES BUT IS THE SAME GOD

  • WHO WORKS ALL IN ALL.

  • I DON'T HAVE TIME TO MOVE ON THERE.

  • LET'S SKIP RIGHT TO CHAPTER 13.

  • IN CHAPTER 12 I WANT TO YOU GO THROUGH THE DIFFERENT HEALINGS,

  • BUT LISTEN TO WHAT APOSTLE PAUL SAYS, THOUGH I SPEAK OF TONGUES

  • OF MEN OR OF ANGELS, BUT HAVE NOT LOVE, I HAVE BECOME A

  • SOUNDING BRASS OR CLINGING CYMBAL.

  • ALTHOUGH I HAVE THE GIFT OF PROPHECY--LISTEN TO THESE

  • WORDS--HE HAS THE GIFT OF PROPHECY.

  • HE UNDERSTANDS ALL MYSTERIES AND ALL KNOWLEDGE.

  • THOUGH I HAVE ALL FAITH SO I COULD REMOVE MOUNTAINS BUT HAVE

  • NOT LOVE, I AM NOTHING, NOTHING, NOTHING.

  • N-O-T-H-I-N-G.

  • NOTHING.

  • LOVE IS WHAT DROVE JESUS TO THE CROSS.

  • GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY SON.

  • THERE IS NO WAY THAT I DESERVE HEAVEN BECAUSE HEAVEN IS PERFECT

  • AND I AM NOT.

  • AND WE HAVE ALL SINNED.

  • JUST GIVE ME TWO OR THREE ROLLS, ONE TOY AND YOU'LL SEE SIN.

  • BECAUSE GOD LOVED US SO MUCH HE GAVE US A WAY TO RECEIVE HIM.

  • AND ALL THE BENEFITS OF KNOWING JESUS.

  • I DON'T HAVE A POSITIVE ATTITUDE BECAUSE IT'S MY COPING

  • MECHANISM.

  • THAT IS YOUR MECHANISM IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN JESUS.

  • YOU'RE HOPING WHATEVER TEACHING YOU'RE HOLDING ON TO WHO IS THE

  • PERSON WHO NEVER SAID THAT THEY WERE HOLY, PERFECT, AND COULD

  • NOT RAISE THEMSELVES FROM THE DEATH, THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE

  • HOLDING ON TO.

  • IF I'M JUST A GOOD ENOUGH PERSON.

  • REALLY?

  • THAT'S INTERESTING.

  • I REMEMBER IN GENESIS ADAM AND EVE WERE TOLD NOT TO EAT OF THE

  • FRUIT OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL.

  • IF I JUST KNOW WHAT IS BAD AND GOOD.

  • IF I'M GOOD ENOUGH I WILL GET TO HEAVEN.

  • THAT WAS THE DEFINITION OF THE FIRST SIN OF ADAM AND EVE.

  • IF I JUST THINK I'M GOOD ENOUGH.

  • IT'S NOT ABOUT THAT.

  • FIRST SIN.

  • STILL HERE TODAY.

  • NO, I AM A SINNER.

  • I NEED YOU, LORD.

  • I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU HAVE FOR ME, BUT I BY FAITH IF YOU

  • GIVE ME THAT GRACE AND MERCY LORD, I WANT TO SEEK YOUR FACE,

  • TRANSFORM MY HEART, TRANSFORM MY MIND.

  • GIVE ME THE LOVE THAT YOU HAVE FOR THE WORLD THAT I MAY BE

  • FAITHFUL IN WHAT I DO FOR YOU.

  • GOD WOULD NOT HAVE SENT ME TO 48 NATIONS SPEAKING IN FRONT OF

  • EIGHT PRESIDENTS, FIVE CONGRESSES, TWO OF THEM ON THEIR

  • KNEES ASKING FOR FORGIVENESS OF THE NATION, ON TV IN COLOMBIA

  • AND OTHER PLACES.

  • BUT GOD WOULD NOT SEND ME TO THE NATION UNTIL I'M FAITHFUL WITH

  • MY ONLY LITTLE BACKYARD.

  • GOWN IN QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA, DOWN UNDER.

  • IF I WASN'T AN EVANGELIST WITH WHAT GOD GAVE ME, WITH A SMALL

  • AMOUNT OF PEOPLE, DON'T THINK YOU'LL EVER THINK YOU'LL DOING

  • SOMETHING MASSIVE IN THE WORLD UNTIL YOU SHOW GOD YOU'RE ABLE

  • TO DO WITH WHAT YOU HAVE.

  • OH, I JUST WISH I HAD THAT MINISTRY, NO.

  • THESE MINISTRIES THAT ARE REPRESENTED BY THIS CHURCH SAVES

  • SOULS FOR JESUS THAT I, NICK VUJICIC, WILL EVER, EVER GET TO

  • MEET.

  • WE ARE ALL PART OF THE BODY OF CHRIST.

  • LOVE GOD BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING ELSE BETTER THAN KNOWING

  • HIM AND WALKING WITH HIM AND LETTING OTHERS SEE THAT THERE IS

  • HOPE.

  • THEN I CAN BE POSITIVE.

  • YOU THINK I'M GOING TO BE POSITIVE?

  • I'M AMBASSADOR OF THE KING OF KINGS, LORD OF LORDS.

  • I HAVE ANGELS WITH ME, AND IF GOD IS WITH ME WHO CAN BE

  • AGAINST ME.

  • IT'S NOT EASY WHEN YOU TAKE OVER A TERRITORY FOR GOD'S KINGDOM

  • BECAUSE SATAN IS NOT SITTING WITH HIS FEET UP DRINKING HIS

  • COGNAC AND SMOKING HIS CIGAR.

  • HE'S SENDING ARMS AGAINST YOU, BUT WE DON'T HAVE TO BE AFRAID

  • BECAUSE GOD IS WITH US, AND NO ONE IS GREATER, NO ONE HAS A

  • GREATER NAME THAN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.

  • YOU CAN HAVE THAT HOPE, AND MAYBE YOU'VE COME HERE THIS

  • MORNING, AND YOU CAN ADMIT THAT, NICK, I DON'T HAVE AN ACTIVE

  • PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.

  • MAYBE YOU'RE MAKING EXCUSES WHY YOU HAVEN'T TRUSTED HIM YET.

  • I WANT TO KNOW WHAT GOD IS GOING TO DO.

  • OR I'M NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO REALLY SEE WHAT GOD HAS.

  • I NEED TO PRAY MORE.

  • I NEED TO HAVE MORE FAITH--EEH.

  • LIFE IN THE PIT OF HELL.

  • GOD WANTS YOU.

  • HE CAN USE YOU NOW.

  • I THANK GOD THAT HE DIDN'T GIVE ME HEALING IN MY BODY, BUT HE

  • GAVE ME RESTORATION OF MY SOUL AND HEALING OF MY SPIRIT.

  • THAT'S WHAT HE WANTS TO DO FOR YOU TODAY.

  • FOR SURE, IF YOU ALLOW HIM.

  • WHAT DO YOU THINK I WANT?

  • A RESTORED SOUL AND SPIRIT?

  • OR ARMS AND LEGS?

  • THIS STUFF, I'M GOING TO DIE.

  • BUT I'M GOING TO LIVE FOREVER.

  • DO YOU HAVE THAT PEACE?

  • DO YOU KNOW THE LORD JESUS?

  • MAYBE YOU'VE COME TO CHURCH.

  • MAYBE YOU GO TO OTHER CHURCHES BUT YOU HAVE NOT ENGAGED WITH A

  • PERSONAL ENCOUNTER WITH GOD ALMIGHTY AND WALKING WITH GOD

  • AND MAKING YOUR DECISIONS IN YOUR LIFE ACCORDING TO THE

  • DESIRE OF HOW GOD WANTS US TO LIVE.

  • IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT WE'RE PERFECT.

  • NO ONE IS PERFECT.

  • BUT TO TURN FROM OUR WICKED WAYS THAT TAKE US AWAY FROM GOD AND

  • NEARLY GIVING UP, SOME OF YOU ARE ALIVE, AND SOME OF YOU ARE

  • SMILING AND ALIVE.

  • I MEAN, OF COURSE, YOU'RE ALIVE.

  • YOU'RE BREATHING.

  • SOME OF YOU ARE DEAD ON THE INSIDE.

  • GOD IS CALLING YOU.

  • TO CHARGE YOU UP.

  • WITH HIS HOLY SPIRIT THAT WILL NEVER EVER RUN DRY OR DEAD,

  • EVER.

  • HIS LOVE FOR YOU WILL NEVER DECREASE.

  • HE LOVES YOU RIGHT NOW.

  • HE HAS A PLAN FOR YOU.

  • TURN AROUND AND SAY, YES, GOD, COME INTO MY LIFE.

  • TEACH ME HOW TO READ THE WORD.

  • DEAR GOD, I KNOW THERE IS MORE TO MY LIFE THAN 90 YEARS.

  • TAKE AWAY MY BURDENS, TAKE AWAY THIS PAIN.

  • LORD GOD, IF YOU DON'T CHANGE MY CIRCUMSTANCE I KNOW YOU'RE GOING

  • TO USE IT, AND YOU'RE GOING TO BE WITH ME EVERY STEP OF THE

  • WAY.

  • RIGHT NOW FROM THE FRONT TO THE BACK TO THE TOP, IF YOU KNOW YOU

  • NEED TO MAKE YOUR LIFE WITH JESUS, YOU DO NOT HAVE A

  • PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM, I WANT TO YOU STAND RIGHT NOW,

  • AND I KNOW IT'S VERY BOLD TO THINK THAT YOU'RE JUST GOING TO

  • COME UP HERE ON THE FRONT FLOOR.

  • EVERYONE WILL SEE YOUR FACE.

  • I WANT TO YOU COME UP FRONT, AND I WANT TO PRAY A PRAYER THAT

  • BEGINS YOUR LIFE-CHANGING JOURNEY AND TRANSFORMATION THAT

  • GOD WANTS TO DO IN YOUR LIFE.

  • IF YOU KNOW THAT ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, AND YOUR BEST IS NOT

  • GOOD ENOUGH, NOW IS TIME TO COME UP AND CONFESS TO GOD YES, I

  • NEED YOU, CHANGE ME.

  • I WANT TO KNOW YOU.

  • I WANT YOU TO BE MY HOPE AND NOTHING ELSE.

  • COME FORWARD RIGHT NOW.

  • COME ON.

  • STAND AND COME FORWARD.

  • YOU KNOW THAT GOD HAS SPOKEN TO YOU.

  • I KNOW WE'RE REALLY EXCITED.

  • COME ON DOWN.

  • YOU KNOW GOD IS SPEAKING TO YOU, COME ON DOWN.

  • THAT'S IT.

  • YOU'RE GOING TO SEE A LOT OF PEOPLE COMING DOWN.

  • COME ON.

  • YOU KNOW GOD IS SPEAKING TO YOU.

  • TODAY IS THE DAY YOU MAKE THE LORD JESUS CHRIST YOUR HOPE,

  • YOUR ROCK, YOUR EVERYTHING.

  • COME ON DOWN.

  • YOU CAN BRING A FRIEND.

  • JUST WAIT A SECOND, WAIT A SECOND.

  • SHH, SHH, SHH.

  • SORRY.

  • IF YOU KNOW THAT YOU'RE THINKING OF ASKING THE PERSON NEXT TO

  • YOU.

  • I WANT TO GO UP THERE, BUT I DON'T WANT TO GO ALONE.

  • I WANT TO ASK GOD TO BE MY LIFE, WILL YOU COME WITH ME?

  • STOP AND ASK RIGHT NOW.

  • THEY MAY BE THINKING THE SAME THING.

  • KEEP THE APPLAUSE GOING.

  • LAST CALL.

  • IF YOU NEED TO MAKE YOUR LIFE WITH JESUS COME DOWN TO THE

  • FRONT RIGHT NOW.

  • COME ON.

  • THAT'S IT.

  • STAND AND COME FORWARD FROM THE TOP WE'LL WAIT FOR YOU.

  • COME DOWN.

  • COME ON, NEXT TEN MORE.

  • I'M BELIEVING FOR ANOTHER 30, COME ON, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, GIVE

  • YOUR LIFE TO THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.

  • DON'T CONTINUE IN YOUR STRENGTH.

  • AWESOME.

  • THAT'S ANOTHER TEN.

  • COME ON.

  • 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, COME ON.

  • DON'T BUILD ON THE SAND.

  • BUILD YOUR LIFE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.

  • HE WILL NOT DISAPPOINT YOU.

  • HE WILL HEAL YOU.

  • HE WILL RESTORE YOU.

  • RUN ON DOWN.

  • COME ON, RUN ON DOWN IF YOU'RE COMING RIGHT NOW.

  • WAVE TO ME IF YOU'RE COMING.

  • HERE WE GO.

  • RUN, RUN, RUN.

  • IT'S NOT TOO LATE.

  • MAKE YOUR MOVE NOW.

  • HALLELUJAH.

  • THERE'S ONE MORE.

  • SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE, TEN, ELEVEN.

  • 12, 13, 14, IF YOU CAN RUN DOWN NOW THAT WOULD BE GREAT.

  • 15, 16, 17, KEEP COMING DOWN.

  • AWESOME.

  • HALLELUJAH.

  • THAT WAS A FULL THREE AND A HALF MINUTES OF PEOPLE WALKING DOWN.

  • CAN WE GIVE GLORY TO GOD?

  • [APPLAUSE]

  • LET US PRAY AS WE ARE.

  • LORD JESUS, WE THANK YOU THAT YOU LOVE US.

  • WE THANK YOU, LORD, THAT YOU ARE SO GOOD.

  • WE ASK GOD THAT YOU WOULD BLESS US IN EVERY ASPECT OF OUR

  • HEARTS' DESIRE.

  • I PRAY FOR PHYSICAL MIRACLES ALL ACROSS THIS PLACE.

  • IN THE NAME OF JESUS BE HEALED.

  • BUT LORD, MORE THAN OUR BODIES BEING HEALED THANK YOU, LORD,

  • YOU CAN HEAL OUR HEARTS AND RESTORE OUR SOUL.

  • THANK YOU, LORD, THAT THERE IS MORE TO LIFE THAN THIS LIFE THAT

  • MEETS THE EYE.

  • WE GIVE YOU THE PRAISE AND THE GLORY.

  • HELP US TO LOVE YOU MORE, TEACH US YOUR WAY.
