So, as Brother Craig said, he's been in my home, you know, and he knows my dad. It's just a blessing to come to a place that people know what you're doing. And my dad, my dad is a church planter in Kenya. And he still have the ministry in the bush, in the slum with Craig. He still works there. At this moment, he has like 200 kids who are orphans. And he take care of them and my mom. and they go to the bush area just planting churches to the community and it's just a blessing to do God's work you know and just going around and you know what we've heard from uh from brother Dale and what he's doing in in South America man it's it's it's work you know and we're not doing it because uh we want praise or anything we're doing it because of the glory of God you know and we we're not gonna stop till the trumpet comes And what a blessing it is just to know that we have a God in heaven that takes care of us wherever we are and whenever we need. He's always there. He's always faithful. He never ceases to bless us. I was born in the area that he just said about the slum area. The Islam area is a very, very rough area, and it's just full of immorality, full of crime, full of all kind of things that you can talk about. It's in the slum area. And people live in a very different categories. They live in very small shacks. You can say just very small teen houses that they live in there. They have their families there. They have their, everything is just in that little shack. And I remember when I was 11 years old, I went to a youth camp. And they preached, I went to a youth camp. night. Monday night, they preach about heaven and hell. Tuesday night, the same thing. Wednesday night, I I was like, you know, my dad is a preacher. My mom is a teacher. I got it right. Thursday night, it came. I was like, no, no, no. I gotta do something. On Thursday night, I received Jesus Christ as my personal savior. And you know, what can wash away my sins? Nothing but the blood of Jesus. You know, You know, I know my name is written, you know, and and i'm so glad That I have a father in heaven that sent his son jesus christ to die on the cross for us And I got a short video. I don't know if it's ready or not But if it's ready or not, we're just gonna do whatever god wants us to do, you know and the devil is trying to fight us in any ways, but Open your bible to the book of matthew matthew chapter 28 Yes, sir. We're still going to preach it, even if the technology is trying to give us a fit, you know. So, in Kenya, we don't have all these technologies, but we still preach the word of God, you know. So, I went to Landmark. I just graduated, as Brother Craig has said. I graduated from Landmark and I did missions. I got a scholarship from there, you know. When Brother Scotty came to Kenya, he told us about Landmark and all that. And when he came there, he was just moved, you know. And you all know Brother Scordia, when he says something, he means it, you know. And that time, you know, that's the time that we had been 207. We had politics and all that, politicians. And we had a very bad, bad, bad political violence, that you can say. A lot of people died, a lot of people were just like involved into all kinds of things, you know. But, you know, God protects us in that slum area. know I can people are coming in the church and sleeping in the church you know but you know people always know the church is always the place that they can go for help and you know that's one thing we can't say that we miss you know sometimes we wrong God our own self sometimes you're not faithful but you know what God is always faithful And when Brother Dale was talking about all that sweating stuff over there, you know, there's one time I was helping my dad, and we went to this area that is very, very hot, you know, and I was teaching the teenagers, I was teaching the kids, and it was so hot. you know and my dad over there is preaching people are hungry for the lord and it was under a tree under a tree you know under a tree preaching preaching the word of god you know that's the first commandment that god gave us You know, and today I'm just gonna read, just gonna give a short message from Matthew 28, verse 18 through 20. I can say it's short, but you know, wherever the Lord leads me, you know, it might be short for me, but it might be long for you, you know. So Matthew 28, you know, and one of my goals is to go back in Kenya and to build a youth camp so that I can minister to all. You know, this is almost the area that I was born. 10 000 kids and youth who doesn't know the word of god. They are hungry They are hungry for the lord and that youth camp will be a very big need that that i'm praying about and uh, We have prayer card brother dale has his prayer card. I have my own prayer cards. You can grab one You can pray for us, you know, we need prayers. Everybody needs prayers, you know, so matthew 28 matthew 28 verse 18 i'll read it and Jesus came and spake unto them saying all power is given unto me in heaven and in earth go ye therefore and teach all nations baptizing them in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy ghost teaching them to observe all things whatsoever i have commanded you and lo I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Dear Lord, I say thank you for this day. Thank you for just giving us a good time, and what a blessing it is just to come and share your testimony, share testimonies of God and fellowship together with believers, God. Please, if anyone in here who doesn't know you as a personal savior, God, please convict their heart and let them receive you as a personal savior. God, thank you for sending your son Jesus Christ who died on the cross for us God, I pray Please just touch each and everybody. Let me just be a blessing through your word I say thank you, and I love you in Jesus name. I pray and believe amen So i'm just gonna preach about are you doing the great commission or are you doing the great omission? You know, sometimes we go say I'm doing a great commission, but maybe you're doing the great omission. You never know and you know over here This is a command verse 19 go when god tells us to go This is a commission and is an authoritative and you can say in an english word. This is a command It's a directive as believers. We're being given this directive here and it's telling us go go where go ye therefore into all the world and and we can go to south america as brother dale has gone over there you can go you can be your missionary in your own country in west virginia people still need the word of god in every place you go people still need the word of god what we're gonna do we're gonna go we're gonna stay out of our comfort zone and say i don't want to be a bum and a lazy bum just staying over here i'm gonna be a good christian i want to go i want to go i want to go you know this here this is a command and it's a directive and he's telling us where are we going go ye therefore and teach all nations baptizing them in the name of the father and of the son and the hope of holy ghost We need to do it, Christians. We need to do it, fellow believers. We just not need to say and say we don't want to do it. You know, you can be a Christian, you can be a goer, you can be doing a great commission just passing out trucks and telling people about the Lord. You can be a great commission and just inviting someone to the church. you know when I came in and I say I saw about confusion over there when it's written confusion people are just confused they don't even know their own gender but you know what we need to do we need to preach the word and telling them how it is we need to teach the one and telling them hey it's not there in the bible the bible doesn't the bible calls his abomination That's abomination, and we still have to call it abomination. You know, that's one thing that we need to do. You know, some people are just satisfied as long as they are saved, they don't want to do anything else. You know, as long as they are saved, they don't want to share the gospel to the Christians. As long as they are saved, they don't want to share the gospel to the lost people. You know and one time I remember people are just saying it I was in McDonald's one day and this guy was so tall and and he was using Jesus name as a as a swear word and I was like God, please just give me strength And I'm I'm a short guy, you know, I I call myself as fun-sized guy, you know And I was wondering how can I how can I just go to him and share him the word of God? You know and I prayed and I say God, I know he's eating a big mug But i'm here to share the word of God with him. You know, and I went and introduced myself. I say, okay, I'm Steve. And what's your name, sir? And he said, his name is Kevin. I can't forget his name. And he said, I asked him, do you know the name that you're just using? That's, that's my savior. He died for me. And I took my Bible. I was like, I got to show him. And I started showing him and, and Kevin started crying. and bawling. And I was like, wow, that's the Holy Spirit. You know, I was scared at first, but this guy is crying as I show him. And I told him, hey, Kevin, you know, the name Jesus Christ, please don't use it that way. He died for you. He shed his blood for you. And the only thing you can do today, Kevin, is accept him as your personal savior. Kevin ended up accepting him as his personal savior, you know, and I invited him and I say, Kevin, it's not, it's not done yet. Will you mind coming to church on Sunday? And he showed up to church and I had a Bible. I said, I got to give him a Bible. I took my Bible and I gave him what a blessing it is. you know, and he became faithful. He started riding the bars. You know, that's if, if I was just sitting there and I say, okay, I'm just coming to McDonald's to buy something, you know, I was convicted and I said, I got a, maybe he doesn't know. Sometimes they don't know. Sometimes they just doing it because, but if I say, if I, if I could just say, okay, I'm just not telling him what to do, he'll, maybe he will end up going to hell, you know? you will end up going to hell but but it's a blessing just to know and and just to go you know and the first thing i'm gonna do here tonight is just giving you simple thing we have a divine mandate you know the god the lord has given us this mandate here to tell people baptizing them in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy ghost our our job is to go and telling them and that the great mandate here is presenting them the word of god and telling them hey You need to get saved. You need to get saved. There's no other way that you can go to heaven. No, no, no. The only thing that will take you to heaven is receiving Jesus Christ as your personal savior. Accepting him. But God commanded his love in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. He died for us. You know, he became sin for us. He was not a sinner. He was sinless. But his love towards us, he gave us love. You know, and we just need to go and telling people, you know, sometimes it involves a lifestyle. It will take you a lifestyle and you say, I can't do that, I can't do that. That's part of your lifestyle. You can make soul winning part of your lifestyle. You can make soul winning parts of just inviting people to church and telling them about the word of God. You know, it involves your lips. You know, how can it involve your lips? By teaching them. just teaching them and making disciples and instructing them. You know, we are living, we are to live the right kind of life, but we are also told to share our faith. How can we share our faith? By giving our trucks. How can we share our faith? By sharing the gospel to the lost one. How can we share our faith? But it's just inviting people, maybe you're so scared to go to the Bible and telling people about the word of God. You can invite them to church, and when they come to church, they gotta get saved. You know, you did your part. How can you do your part? Inviting them to church and just telling them, okay, I'm trusting in the Lord, he's gonna give me that mandate. And the second thing is we have a divine message. Jesus tell us as his followers to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you. What are you observing tonight? Are you observing his word? Are you observing Jesus Christ and telling other people about how good he is to you, how he's always faithful, how he's always met your need, how he's always there for you every time you just share someone's faith, every time you just share the message of the gospel and telling people, hey, I need you to know my Jesus. I need you to know my God. You know, we have a community in Kenya that, that they believe drinking a cow blood, will take them to heaven. You know they believe that this this the same community that's in the bush that my dad was goes over there about four five hours just going there and telling them about the word of God. This same community what you know when you tell them hey you don't have to drink the water the cow blood just to get to heaven. don't have to do all these things. The only thing you gotta do, accept him in your own heart. Believe in him. Admit you're a sinner. Believe you're a sinner. Believe it. Believe in the name of the son Jesus Christ who died on the cross. He came on this heart. You know, there's these people who just don't care about Jesus, but we care about Jesus. We tell people about Jesus. You know, some of them, they believe in their own mountains, in their ancestors, and they say, you know, once the ancestor die, they take that concussion, and they take the bone of the ancestor, or the old man, or the old lady that died, and they drink that concussion, they squeeze it. That's, you know what, that's just yucky. Right? I can see it in your face. It's just yucky. It's not, you know, but guess what? When we tell them, hey, you don't have to do that. No, no, no. You, that's, that's just yucky. That's nasty. You don't have to do that. Jesus Christ didn't do that. He died on the cross for you. You know what? We have the message that we got to give them and telling them, hey, Jesus Christ loves you so much. Please accept him. He died for you. He died for you. You didn't pay anything. You know, I have a God that died and was buried and he rose again. You know, I don't have to worship someone that died and he never he never he he's still dead He still have carcasses in the in the in the tomb, you know I have a god that I can call on him right now and he can answer my prayers. He's so faithful to us You know, we have we have people who like they they believe in their own things They believe some some people believe in buddha. He died, but he never rose again My god my jesus died and he rose the third day. He shed that blood for me brother He said that brother he shed that blood for me, you know Some people have their god that they they call allah. Who's allah? I have jesus christ who died and he rose again, you know And and we have a divine mission the third thing we have a divine mission. Let's go to uh, matthew 16 matthew 16 verse 15 matthew 16 Matthew 16 verse 15, it says, I'm getting there, I'm getting there. Matthew 16, 15, all right, I got it. All right, Matthew 16, 15, it says, and he said unto them, go ye, this is another command again, go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. to every creature you know the good thing is the same god that saved me is the same god that's in america the same god that saved me when i was 11 years old is the same god that that you got saved on is the same jesus that you got saved on he died on the cross for us amen what a blessing it is we have a divine mission just to tell people you know sometimes this community also they they say once you're brave Once you kill a lion, if you're a teenager, if you're like a man, just to kill a lion, they call themselves warriors. And these warriors, they can kill a lion, but I can't. I'm not a warrior like that. And you can ask me, how do they do it? Some people get killed when they try it, because the lion is very aggressive. That's a big, big card, man. It will kill you instantly. And this community, they say that once they kill a lion, they got it. But why do people get killed before they kill the lion? And they take the stick or the spear, and they time when the lion roars, and they take the spear. And what about if you miss it? You've aggravated the lion so bad, it will wipe your face off. You know what? We gotta tell them, hey, you don't have to do that. You don't have to do that. Jesus Christ, he's the answer. He's the only answer that we got. Despite all this mess that's going around, COVID-19 and all that, we still have Jesus. He still rules the world, you know? And if you desire a burden for the lost souls, you got to get out of your comfort zone. And I remember my friend one day, I went to a public school and my friend, just 15 year old boy, I was sharing the gospel with him and I was telling him, Hey, you know, uh, Jesus Christ died on the cross and he, he didn't want to hear about it every day, every day, every day. You should tell him, Hey, he died for you. And you know, Sometimes they say teenagers know it all. No, they don't. You know, and as I kept telling him, you know, he ended up joining a gang and he left school. And the last thing I know, he got killed. What about if he didn't even receive Jesus Christ? I had a burden for him. I had a burden for the kids and I say every time I'm going to do my best to tell these kids about the Lord. Every time I'm going to do my best to tell these teenagers about the Lord of God. And from that time I was so burdened when I was 15 years old. I went to where my dad's church is in the slum area and I knelt at the altar and I gave my life to the Lord and I said, God, whenever you want to use me, I'm ready. Whenever you want to use me, Lord, 15 years old, I can't forget that day. And I was crying so bad. I went to tell my parents and my mom was just crying and sobbing out, you know what? We got to have a bargain. You got to have a bargain. And that time I went to my grandpa and I told grandpa, hey grandpa, I know you're a good man, but you know, being good will not take you to heaven. Being good will not take you to heaven, Papa. I know you always have the principles, you always have the right principles and just being obedient and all that. Papa, when did you get saved? He never got saved. He was just right on point. And I took my Bible and I showed my papa how to get saved and he just started bashing off and from that time I just started praying for my papa and I said God please just save my my papa I need him to get to heaven with me and I started praying and I prayed and I remember one time I was 17 years old and I got a call from papa He said, I want to get saved. What a blessing it is just seeing people who you've been praying for and we serve a God who is very faithful for us and he meets our needs every time. You know, that time my papa started telling his friends about the Lord. He started telling other people about the Lord. You know, if I, if I wasn't burdened for my papa, I'll say, okay, Papa, you know all the principles, but if I wasn't just bold enough, because my dad has been praying for him to get saved, and I was like, okay, I just got to ask him. You know, sometimes they say you have to ask, right? So I went and asked him, and I said, okay, Papa, you need to get saved. This is the right time. And he just started bashing off. And I was just barred to him and I said, you need to get saved. And I started praying for him. When I was 17, he received Jesus Christ as my personal savior. You know, when I told him about just what I'm going to do, he was so excited and he was happy because he started praying for me every day. Every day every sometimes I call him and I call him and and he just pray for me Every day every day, you know, that's that's what we need to do Praying and maybe you have someone that is not saved Praying for them and telling them about jesus and say I need you to get saved know that's the first messages we need to tell them and the fourth thing the last one it's not always the last but it's the last one promise you know we have a divine mentor we have a divine mentor every time we pray he always meet our need every time we're discouraged he's always there every time we talk to him preacher. He always meets our need. When we say Jesus, I need you. He's always there and he tells us fear not. Fear not. We're discouraged but fear not. You know, we are promised his power. We are promised his his presence. Even in in the acts one, it say, acts one eight, it says, all power is is in and the Holy Spirit come upon you. Do you know the power of the Holy Spirit will come to us and we'll receive it? That's the promise that he's given us over here. You know, we are promised his presence and it says, Lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. When the trumpet sounds right now, are you going to be one of them? Is your name written in heaven? Is it written? You know, I can, I can, I'm not a powerful preacher. I'm not a powerful witness for the Lord. And, and I do not, I do not have a stunning testimony that I can say, but if I will be faithfully share what the Lord has done in my life and just faithfully going and telling people about the word of God that all that counts that all that counts faithfully brother Dale Cable going to South America and all these 750 national pastors just hungry people are hungry for the Lord people are hungry just to to receive Jesus Christ you know maybe you're here tonight and and you're wondering Maybe how can I take part of it? But Adele just told us, maybe you can support someone, $25 a month. He told us just to pray. You can take that prayer card and just pray, pray. You know, prayer is always powerful. It's always powerful. Without prayer, we can't do anything. communicating to God. Can you imagine not talking if you're married, if you have a wife, if you have a husband, maybe going 20 years without communicating? That's prayer. If you don't communicate with God, and you expect Him to be faithful to you, no, no, no. He died for us. He sent His Son. Are you doing the great commission, or are you doing the great omission, preacher?
