Child of God, it’s time to break free from condemnation and see God’s abundant blessings rush into your life like never before!
If right now,
you’re experiencing
stress in all these areas—
stress is a good indicator.
Amen.
Stress, fear, if you’re
experiencing fear
in some of these areas:
whether it’s your bodily health
or whether it’s a child
you’re concerned about
or whether it is your finances.
Amen.
Especially during this time.
You know, I just want you
to know one thing:
That fear seized you
because of your thinking.
Amen.
The thinking has been wrong.
In other words, you’re still
thinking the same old way
as if you don’t have a Savior
and as if you don’t have a
Father in heaven.
The Bible says to those
who have believed on Christ that:
“We are not under law.”
“We are under grace.”
Now, how is law defined?
Law is defined
as man working
and man laboring.
How is grace defined?
Grace is defined
as God working
and God supplying.
Amen.
So either you are
supplying for yourself,
providing for yourself,
working for yourself,
and laboring to produce results,
or God is working.
You choose.
Amen.
Now, maybe you will say:
“Is there nothing for me to do?”
Yes, believe.
Believe.
Now, when God
is working for you,
God will also work—
if you live under grace,
God will also work in you
and through you,
and then you just
follow after him.
Like right now, you can say
I’m laboring, isn’t it?
I’m laboring to preach
the word of God to you.
But yet, I’m conscious that
it’s God who is working in me
both to will and to do
of His good pleasure.
I believe that God is
working for me.
God is working in me
and God is working through me
to produce the results
that He wants
to produce in your life.
Amen.
So even that becomes
a life of rest.
Amen.
Amen.
That’s the believer’s life!
In all his labor—
outwardly, he is busy.
Amen.
But inwardly, he’s at rest.
It’s like the
tabernacle of Moses,
which is the first—
or what they call:
“the habitat of God”
that God told men to create.
Like the first temple.
But it was a mobile temple
in the desert.
When the children of Israel
wandered for 40 years,
the Bible tells us:
God told them to
build Him a tabernacle,
a “mishkan” in Hebrew,
where He would dwell
in the Holy of Holies.
So there are
three compartments
to the tabernacle of Moses.
And the first part
is the outer court.
Okay?
And there, you have sunlight,
natural light.
Amen.
And that speaks of
the people of the world.
You know, they have natural light.
What they see is what
they believe science can tell them.
Alright?
But that is very limited
because you are confined
based on what you see.
And what you see
is very limited because
there’s an unseen realm.
Amen.
The Bible says:
“The things that”
“we see are temporal.”
Even the tumor that
you can see on the X-Ray,
is temporal!
But God’s promise of healing
is eternal.
Amen.
But people say:
“You know, I cannot believe”
“what I can’t see.”
My friend, you got it wrong
because of Adam’s fall.
Know that you are
in an unnatural state.
Reverse your belief.
Believe.
Amen.
Walk by faith because
God meant for men
to walk by faith and not by sight.
which limits you drastically.
Amen.
So here we go.
Praise the Lord.
Hallelujah.
We got to live
a life of rest.
And when you move
into the Holy place,
there is the light
from the lampstand,
the “menorah”,
and that’s the picture
of the church of Jesus Christ.
Finally, we go onto
the Holy of Holies
where God’s presence dwells,
right in the Holy of Holies.
In there, you don’t find
the lampstand.
In there, don’t find
the sunlight.
In there, you find
“shekinah glory”,
the brightest light ever.
Amen.
The presence of God
lights up the place.
Friend, if we can settle
in our hearts to be at rest—
God said to me,
many years ago:
“When you rest, God works.”
“When you work, God rests.”
And yet, does that mean
we do nothing?
No.
Like I said,
all those people
that are in the temple,
those who are outside
working under the sunlight?
They were killing
the animals, putting them
on the altar of sacrifice.
Amen.
They were worshiping God,
they were washing.
They were busy.
Amen.
Alright?
So that’s a picture
of our bodies
because the Bible says:
“Know ye not that your bodies”
“are the temple of God?”
So when we look
at the temple of God—
outside is busy.
Amen.
Even in the temple of Solomon,
outside is busy.
That’s where the animals
are being sacrificed.
That’s where a lot of
work is going on.
But inside the temple,
inside the Holy of Holies,
there’s perfect peace.
There is stillness.
There is perfect “shalom”.
Amen.
And that’s our spirit man.
For friend, you are a
tripartite being.
Like how God is a triune God.
One God but
three divine persons—
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
So God made you in His image.
You are a tripartite being.
You have a spirit.
You are a spirit, actually.
I should say that
you are a spirit.
The real you is that
you are a spirit.
You have a soul.
That’s your mind
and your emotions.
And you live in a container
called the body.
So there’s three parts to you.
Just like the egg.
You have the yolk,
you have the white
and you have the shell.
You are a tripartite thing.
So the Bible says:
“Know ye not that your bodies”
“are the temple of God?”
What does that mean?
Outside, you can be busy.
Just like they were
in the outer court.
But on the inside,
you got to be at rest.
You got to be at rest.
And in whatever you do,
God will prosper.
Amen.
Whatever you do
will have the touch
of favor on it.
If I live my life,
always working,
always working,
always laboring,
always trying to
produce for myself—
“I got to fend for myself.”
“I got to tend to my family.”
“I got to—I myself must
come up with”
“my ideas, my answers.”
No, friend.
You’re living under the law
and you are living a deadly life.
But if you live a life where
you look to Jesus,
the author and finisher
of your faith.
Trust Him.
Amen.
What you don’t have,
you trust Him that
He’s supplying it.
Amen.
Even when things look
contrary to God’s promises,
you still believe and
you trust that
He’s supplying.
If He doesn’t give,
you cannot have.
Amen.
You’re always trusting Him!
Another way of saying
it is like this:
The law demands.
The law demands—
“You shall not, you shall not,”
“you shall not, you shall not.”
But grace supplies.
God says: “I will, I will,
I will, I will.”
So every day, let’s say
I have an assignment
in my future and
the more I think about it,
I feel the demand on me.
I’ve not prepared for it yet.
Maybe it’s a conference
I need to speak at,
for me as a speaker.
Amen.
It is a conference
and I’m not prepared for it.
Or you need to do a
presentation before your boss.
Amen.
Or nowadays on zoom.
And you find that
you’re not prepared.
Or there’s something else
you need to do.
You need to get your
children ready for school.
Or maybe it’s their studies
or the PSLE
or whatever it is.
And you are concerned
that you’re not equipped,
that you’re not ready.
Friend, be careful about this.
You are now a prime
candidate of stress.
Amen.
So don’t fall into that.
Stop for awhile and say:
“Wait a minute,”
“wait a minute.”
“God foresaw all these needs
long before it happened.”
“Long before I had a need,
God has the supply.”
“Even for my children.”
“Whatever they need,
God will supply me the wisdom.”
“I may not have the answer now
but I believe that”
“God is supplying me
and God will supply me”
“in the future.”
Amen.
“My part is not to worry
about when.”
“If God doesn’t supply
the answer now,”
“then it is for me to trust Him
and take my time and rest.”
Amen.
And just trust that
God is working in you,
through you and for you.
Amen.
Even in parenting,
you need to see
God’s supply is there.
“Oh, I’m so concerned
about my son.”
“He seems to have
this problem.”
Stop for awhile and say:
“What can I do?”
“What can I produce
from myself that”
“will cause this problem
to be rectified.”
You’ll find many a times
you don’t have the answer.
Amen.
So stop demanding
from yourself
and start looking to the Lord.
Amen.
The Bible says that
our life is a life
of looking to Jesus.
Amen.
Say: “Lord, I thank You
for Your supply of wisdom”
“in handling my child
or the presentation.”
“I thank You, Lord”
“The supply is coming my way.”
“I will know what to say.”
“Yes.”
“The supply is coming my way.”
“I’ll have the words from You.”
“Unless the words come
from You, it will just be”
“words of the flesh.”
“It will fall flat.”
“But if the words are from You,
they are spirit”
“and they are life!”
Amen.
So I’m supply-minded.
And I can’t tell you that
I’m always supply-minded.
There are times
I fall into demand
but I thank God for
the Holy Spirit.
He always tells you:
“You know, you can’t”
“blame that person.”
“You started demanding
this from yourself.”
Amen.
“And after that,
you fell into stress”
“and then you got angry
with that person.”
“So it’s not that
person’s fault.”
So I also need to be
reminded all the time.
But friend, that’s how you
can practically live under grace.
I see God as a God
who is more willing to give
than you want to receive.
I see a God whose
provision is greater
than your need.
He always—after He
satisfies your hunger,
there’s twelve baskets
full left over.
His supply always
super exceeds your needs.
Or even your expectations.
He always answers!
No, He over answers our prayers.
The Bible say that
“God answers us”,
in Ephesians,
“exceedingly above all that”
“we ask or think.”
If God answers above
all that we ask or think,
then ask God
for big things!
And let Him exceed that.
Amen.
Friend, praise the Lord.
So this wonderful
Father in heaven.
Amen.
The Holy Spirit is in us
to teach us about Him
and about the Lord Jesus.
Hallelujah.
And one of the things
we need to know is
to rightly divide the Word.
Where it is under law
and where it is under grace.
So we understand the life
we are to live by today.
And every time
you are under law,
it seems like provision
is in a freeze.
No supply comes.
Health is frozen.
But the moment you
are under grace,
health springs forth speedily.
The supply comes in unabated.
Amen.
And it seems like peace
reigns in your heart.
The moment you start
to think right.
Amen.
When the devil tells you:
“You know, the pain”
“you feel in your body, right?”
“It could be this,
it could be that.”
Answer back:
“God is supplying
“health in me.”
Amen.
“What if that pain is nothing
but your lie?”
Amen.
Amen.
Doubt your doubts.
Amen.
And start believing
God’s word and His promises.
