I believe that here in Mexico, you are
going to have an exhibition on the assassination
of Spanish grammar.
I hardly have the opportunity to speak Spanish
in the last 20 years, but I feel
that I should try to speak Spanish, and
my friend may be able to help me
a little.
My heart is very, very full.
I have just returned from Pakistan, North Africa,
Syria, Jordan, Arabia, and other countries where there
are millions and millions of people who have
not heard the blessed name of Jesus even
once.
I cannot explain the burden that is in
my heart this morning.
In this country of two million evangelicals, more
than two million evangelicals, I have just come
from the city of Mexico where we have
a thousand temples, a thousand churches, if we
also talk about the churches at home, there
are many, of different types of churches, and
we have this great burden.
I cannot express it very well, to see
the Church of Mexico taking its part in
sending workers to other parts of the world.
I thank God for the privilege of being
here in Veracruz.
I was here in this city until I
was 24 years old to open a bookstore.
I don't know if some of you remember
that bookstore.
23 years ago, Vida Nueva bookstore.
I was here for a while, and I'm
sure there are other bookstores now.
I can remember my time here in Veracruz
very well because there was a very big
color in May here in this great city.
And I thank God for each one of
you, each church.
And we are not here in Mexico primarily
to teach.
We are here to learn.
This is not a missionary boat.
It is a boat of men and women
who want to learn from other countries, from
other cultures.
And when we leave here, we want to
have more vision to pray for each one
of you and for the Church here in
Mexico.
And at the same time, we do have
a vision.
I'm sure some of you, men and women
of God, already have this vision.
And if you already have this vision, you
don't have to listen so much now.
You can pray or read your Bible or
learn some verses by heart.
But the vision that we have is a
vision that we have found here in the
New Testament.
And we are going to dedicate our time
until now to look at some verses in
the Word of God.
My Spanish is not very good and I
cannot communicate very well.
But the Word of God, written here in
Spanish, can communicate very strongly to our hearts.
And we do not have or do not
want the philosophies of men.
We want to hear the voice of God.
We want to open our hearts and receive
the message that the Holy Spirit wants to
bring to each one of us.
I thank God, brothers and sisters, for the
books that we have here on the boat.
I believe that it is a service to
the evangelical people to bring these important books.
And I hope that you can take these
books and read them and put into practice
the message that we can find in these
books.
I have chosen four books.
Actually, three.
One is a book that I have written.
It is not a very big, very important
book.
But it is a message that is in
my heart.
A revolution of love and balance.
I have a great desire to talk about
this subject.
How to maintain spiritual balance.
Very important.
Because when we are very dedicated to the
Lord, and full of the Holy Spirit, and
we want to make a great war against
the enemy of our soul, the devil, the
evil one, then the enemy wants to destroy
our life.
And a way in which the devil has
destroyed many, here in Mexico itself, is through
extremism.
Extremism.
And it is important to understand this subject.
Spiritual balance.
And here is something about this subject in
this book.
Three more important books.
One, disciplined life.
Disciplined life.
Billy Graham has said, if we do not
have discipline, despite any other thing that we
may have, in reality we are not going
to do much for the Lord Jesus Christ.
Is that true?
I think so.
And here is a very important book.
Disciplined life.
How to have control over oneself.
Over the tongue.
The eyes.
And for this reason, to live a life
of many years for the Lord.
Very important.
We have seen in other countries, some people
who run well one year, two years, and
then nothing.
And our desire is to see leaders, Christian
leaders, who are going to live a life
for all their lives for the Lord Jesus
Christ.
There are two other very important books.
Errors and sexual sin.
Probably, in some countries, I do not know
as much as Mexico or about Mexico, but
in many countries, the number one problem is
sexual sin.
And in some countries and churches, we do
not want to talk about this topic.
There are more than 400 verses in the
word of God on this topic.
More than 400 verses in the word of
God.
But we are not going to say anything.
And I think that every pastor here must
have 10 messages about sex.
For the youth.
How to win victory.
How to receive forgiveness.
How to develop a disciplined life.
And how to stop the darts of fire
that the enemy is going to shoot at
each believer, especially the leaders.
A very important book.
And then, how to share your faith.
This brother, a friend, died a few years
ago in a car crash.
A big thing.
But thank God, his book lives.
How to share your faith.
It is a book for the members of
your church.
You should not think about taking two or
three or four books.
You should think about taking a quantity of
books and selling them to your members or
giving them away.
Because they are very important books.
How to share your faith.
Glory to God for the power of literature.
I have written a book about literature.
I have not seen it in the library,
but it is probably in the exhibition up
there.
It is called, The 29 Soldiers of Lead.
About how the Holy Spirit can use literature
to win souls.
Do you know where I learned to sell
books?
More than anywhere else here in Mexico.
I was not here in Mexico for 19
years.
In Monterrey and Mexico City.
In two years, in response to prayer, we
have opened eight bookstores.
One here in Veracruz.
And I could see, in those days, how
to win souls.
Using literature.
Using correspondence courses.
Distributing leaflets.
We have had the pleasure of distributing 5,
7, 8, 9 million leaflets in Mexico.
And there are people in every part of
Mexico who have received the Lord Jesus Christ
because of these leaflets.
The word of God, as it says in
the Bible, is strong.
It is like a two-edged sword.
And we must use this great sword.
Let's look at some verses in the word
of God.
Romans 12.
Let's see how many people here have their
Bibles.
Let's see their Bibles, please.
Glory to God.
If you don't have a Bible, you must
get one.
Because here we are to study.
And to see what the word of God
says.
Let's pray.
Everyone.
Holy Father, we thank you for your mercy.
The power of your Holy Spirit.
The reality of your presence.
Lord, help me with my poor Spanish.
To express what you are putting in my
heart.
Help us not to listen too much to
the grammar.
But to listen to your voice.
And to receive everything you want to give
us this morning.
Oh Lord, break us.
Teach us more of your word.
Teach us more of the reality of the
spiritual war we are in.
So that we can return to our towns.
So that we can return to our churches.
And see a great revival that can capture
the mind of all of Mexico.
Lord, help us.
To be humble of heart.
And receive what you want to receive.
What you want to give us.
In the name of Christ Jesus.
Amen.
Romans 12.
Two verses.
So brothers.
Verse 1.
I pray you for the mercy of God.
That you present your bodies in sacrifice.
Living, holy, pleasant to God.
That it is your rational worship.
Do not conform to this century.
But transform through the renewal of your understanding.
So that you can verify what is the
good will of God.
Pleasant and perfect.
If we want to be the leaders.
The type of leader that the Lord can
use.
If we want to see revival in our
churches.
If we want to evangelize the world.
If we want to have reality in our
homes.
A very important thing.
And glory to God for some books here.
About the home.
I have one wife.
And three children.
Well, two children.
And a daughter.
One is 21 years old.
I started her life in Mexico.
But now she was born in Spain.
And another son was born in England.
And a daughter was also born in England.
And I believe that one of the greatest
responsibilities for the man of God.
Is his home.
And sometimes it is much more difficult to
guide our home.
Than to guide the whole church.
There are 1,600 people in Operation Mobilization.
1,600.
25 years ago.
Arriving in Mexico City.
Three of us.
With a lot of fear.
Ignorant.
Young.
With some phrases in Spanish.
But with hearts full of God's fire.
And the Lord has given his mercy to
us these 25 years.
In a way that I cannot explain.
Because our God knows how to answer our
prayers.
And because our Lord knows how to use
weak people.
And you are looking at a very weak
person right now.
And when we see what the Lord has
done for the whole world.
Operation Mobilization.
We have to confess that we have a
God.
Who specializes in miracles.
In miracles.
But if we are winning
souls.
And evangelizing the world.
Helping people in our churches.
Not only preaching.
But helping.
The Ministry of Compassion.
The Pastoral Ministry.
Is there a word?
Pastoral?
Then we have to have this reality in
our lives.
We have to have the reality every day.
That we are going to have by presenting
our bodies.
In sacrifice.
Alive.
Holy.
Pleasant to God.
That is our rational worship.
A complete dedication.
A complete surrender.
Complete to the Lord Jesus Christ.
It is absolutely necessary.
To be a man and woman of God.
I am almost 24 years old.
26 years old.
I was converted in the year 55.
By the ministry of Billy Graham.
Maybe I could explain a little bit about.
How my conversion to Christ has happened.
To maybe help understand.
The burden that is in my heart this
morning.
I was not from an evangelical family.
I did not know almost anything about the
word of God.
I was well into the world at 16
years old.
Earning money.
I had three small businesses.
Living near New York.
Deceiving people.
And doing many things.
I do not want to mention them.
Lost.
Slave of sin.
It says in John.
The Gospel of John.
When we sin.
We commit sin.
So.
Sooner or later.
We are going to be slaves of sin.
Thank God.
Thank God for a miracle.
A woman of prayer.
In Iraq for me.
This woman was.
Praying for the high school where I was.
For 15 years.
And we have to remember these days.
Brothers and sisters.
That our great weapon.
Weapon.
Is prayer.
Prayer.
And a woman.
Be Mexican, American, English.
A woman of prayer can move the world
for Christ.
And it is needed today.
More women.
More men of prayer.
Many churches now in America.
So sad the churches.
Many there.
They do not have worship.
They do not have worship in the church.
And then.
They have questions.
Why so many pastors have fallen.
In impurity.
And divorce.
And almost.
Almost.
Any problem we can mention.
Without prayer.
We can not do the work of God.
Without prayer.
We can not evangelize the world.
Without prayer.
We can not have a healthy church.
Without prayer.
We can not have a happy home.
With spiritual balance.
With reality.
Where children.
And children.
And daughters.
They are receiving the word of God.
I think.
I have to thank every week.
For this woman.
I was praying for me.
She also sent me a gospel of John.
By mail.
The word of God.
I hope that each of you.
Is distributing gospels of John.
For brochures.
Sending them by mail.
Giving them in the buses.
The Lord wants to use his word.
But he can not use the Bible.
And new testaments and gospels.
That are still there.
In the Bible society.
Or in a winery.
We have to distribute the word of God.
Freely.
With faith.
Because the Lord wants to use his word.
And this woman has sent me a gospel
of John.
In the middle of.
I was reading pornography.
How do you say?
And other books.
And my mind is deceived.
The word of God has entered my heart.
Like an atomic bomb.
And I had to read that book every
day.
Every day.
For two years.
Because I was a hard man.
Like a donkey.
Because my father was from Holland.
An atheist from Holland.
My father.
No.
Not his father.
An atheist.
My father also from Holland.
A journalist.
My other grandfather.
A drunkard.
From Scotland.
I am an international man.
I do not know where he comes from.
Where am I going?
Only to heaven.
And my father and my mother.
Well, there were no bad people.
I thank God for them.
But they did not have personal knowledge of
our God.
And they could not then teach me.
Of the new birth.
Of the power of the blood of Christ.
The reality of the Holy Spirit.
And so I was very lost.
But thank God for the prayers of that
woman.
And her word could begin to see the
light.
By a miracle of God.
Billy Graham was in the city of New
York one night.
Billy Graham.
He is a man.
We should not give honor to men in
a sense.
They are instruments.
Like a microphone.
But I went to hear the gospel of
our Lord Jesus Christ.
There in Madison Square Garden.
They always have.
How do you say?
Huxing.
I think half of them here speak English.
At least some important words.
And there I could hear the gospel.
How Christ died on the cross for my
sins.
And by a miracle.
A shameless like me.
A weak, ignorant, proud.
I could receive Christ as my Lord and
my Savior.
And receive forgiveness for my sins.
I cannot explain to this day.
How the Lord could change my life.
And clean me.
And give me strength.
To gain victory over impurity.
Over lies.
And all kinds of sin.
That has captured my life.
And was destroying my life.
We are going to give thanks every day
to our Lord.
For this great salvation.
I don't understand.
Some people sitting there in the church.
Sunday morning.
With a face.
Like a bottle of tomato sauce.
I cannot explain that in Spanish.
A sad face.
Sometimes singing hymns.
In Spain.
I remember in a church.
Some people well asleep in the church.
Singing.
We are a small town.
Very happy.
We are a small town.
Very happy.
We are a small town.
Very happy.
Maybe it's not like that here in Veracruz.
I hope that all the saints are enjoying
salvation.
At least you are.
We are going to look at another very
important verse.
In Galatians.
Or Galatians.
How is it?
Well, let's find it in the Bible.
To find things in my Bible.
In Spanish.
It's not that easy.
Galatians.
Chapter 5.
Verse 22.
Galatians 5.22. Primeramente, el hombre de Dios,
vamos a recordar, una entrega cien por cien,
presentando su cuerpo, quiere decir mente, corazon, todo,
a nuestro Dios, como sacrificio vivo.
Primero.
Segundo, veintidos de Galatas, capitulo cinco, mas el
fruto del espiritu es amor, gozo, paz,
paciencia, la batalla mas grande de mi vida,
paciencia.
Como esta haciendo hermano, pastor, lider, padre, madre,
paciencia en la casa, con los ninos, no
hay excusa para perder nuestra tempera, temperamento, y
el espiritu santo tenia que quebrantarme despues de
mi boda, yo estaba en Mexico cada verano
y cada navidad por tres o cuatro años,
y despues de mi boda, otro milagro, no
puedo explicar eso, la misericordia de Dios, encontrar
una señorita que podia vivir conmigo ya veintidos
anos de batalla, de matrimonio, y despues de
mi boda, fuimos para vivir en Mexico, y
tratar de aprender un poco de español, y
el señor tenia que quebrantarme, falta de paciencia
en mi vida, y como he pecado en
contra del señor, en contra de mi esposa,
porque no tenia el control de mi mismo,
y con lagrimas, junto con mis hermanos mexicanos,
una de las personas por veinticinco anos mas
cerca a mi, mis mejores amigos, algunos son
mexicanos, especialmente hermano Valdimar Aguilar, tenemos veinticuatro anos
juntos en la obra, ahora porque tiene familia
grande, y porque el no quiere vivir por
donativos de otros paises, que ahora es nuestro
policy, como se dice, nuestra regla, que si
mexicanos entran a OM, tiene que ser enviado
por la iglesia en Mexico, no por Texas,
ni por Chicago, no puedo explicar la importancia
de ese asunto, por eso el señor ha
guiado a el, trabajar como ranchero, por un
rato en su vida, porque tiene siete hijos,
y despues de dar este rancho a los
hijos, el quiere de nuevo salir para predicar
el evangelio, este hermano mexicano ha ganado por
lo menos mil almas a Cristo Jesus, especialmente
muchos testigos de Jehovah, el es especialista en
ganar a ellos a Cristo y mostrarles el
camino verdadero, pero ahi en Mexico hace tantos
anos, el señor tenia que quebrantarme y enseñarme
algunas cosas feas en mi vida, falda de
paciencia.
Hasta hoy, siempre voy meditando en este gran
pasaje, esta gran porcion de la palabra de
Dios, el fruto del espiritu es amor, gozo,
paz, paciencia, benignidad, bondad, fe, mansidumbre, templanza,
contra tales cosas no hay ley.
Hermanos, hermanas, pastores, quiero preguntarle una pregunta muy
importante, esta usted lleno del espiritu santo, esta
usted entonces, demostrando, demostrando con su vida, este
fruto, diariamente, siete dias cada semana, no solamente
domingo, y en la iglesia, con la sonrisa
de Dios le bendiga hermano.
Pero en su casa, lunes, en su casa,
martes, cuando hay dificultades, cuando hay presiones, cuando
hay criticas en contra de tu ministerio, porque
es imposible andar con Cristo sin criticas.
Y muchas veces podemos aprender mas de nuestros
enemigos, que podemos aprender de nuestros amigos.
Yo doy gracias a Dios por mis enemigos,
el señor ha usado mis enemigos en una
manera muy grande, enseñarme mi orgullo, enseñarme como
yo no sabia mucho de morir a mi
mismo.
Para ver, como dice en este libro tan
importante, El Camino del Calvario, uno de los
primeros libros que he leido en mi vida
cristiana, como es morir a nosotros mismos.
Y por eso, ganar la victoria sobre impaciencia,
ganar la victoria sobre irritaciones, como se dice,
irritations.
Algunas veces en mi vida yo podía confrontar
una cosa grande, un problema grande, con fe.
En nuestra obra tenemos muchos problemas.
En realidad, en la ultima semana hemos tenido
el problema mas grande en nuestra obra en
25 años.
En Bombay, nuestra oficina y bodega de literatura,
lo mas grande en toda Asia, con un
valor muy grande, por medio de un incendio,
ha destruido todo.
Peliculas, maquinas de escribir, literatura, 20 toneladas de
literatura, mas literatura que esta exhibicion, todo destruido
por incendio.
Hace 10 dias tenia que hablar en el
telefono y oir estas noticias.
17 años de trabajo en Bombay, en un
golpe.
Algunos, especialmente en Mexico, ellos piensan, bueno, estas
personas vienen de otros paises, siempre tienen mucho
dinero, compran barcos y compran coches, pero no
entiendes operacion movilizacion.
Primeramente en los Estados Unidos, donde hay mas
dinero que en otros paises, casi conocen lo
que es operacion movilizacion.
Es mas conocido en Mexico, casi que en
los Estados Unidos, y estoy seguro que hay
muchos aqui que no han oido nada de
operacion movilizacion hace una semana.
Es un trabajo de Asia.
Muchos de los donativos para comprar el barco
han venido de indios, donativos de 5 pesos.
Un hombre ha caminado en su bicicleta 100
millas para darme un donativo de 100 pesos.
Era un principio de este ministerio.
Y nosotros, los que han comenzado este trabajo
hace muchos años, hemos vendido nuestras casas, nuestros
coches, hemos vuelto a nuestras policias de seguros
para poner nuestros pequeños donativos en las manos
de Dios, como los peces y el pan.
Y por un milagro, por oracion, poco a
poco, si ustedes pueden ver la vision ahora,
25 años despues, pero poco a poco, con
lagrimas, con poco dinero, con mucho sufrimiento.
Casi no he comprado ropa yo en 25
años.
Porque yo tenia esta conviccion personal, no es
una regla, no es una regla.
Es una conviccion personal que mientras que el
mundo no tiene la palabra de Dios, yo
puedo encontrar ropa usada.
Y como ustedes saben, nosotros gringos tiramos ropa
por todas partes, y cuando ellos estan tirando,
yo estoy alli recogiendo, tengo mi traje y
mis zapatos que no me quepan y todo
lo demas.
Y por medio de usar ropa usada, hemos
ahorrado, hemos ahorrado mas que dos, tres, cuatro
millones de pesos cada año.
Solo mil seiscientos personas, muchas personas, viviendo en
esta forma, una vida mas simple.
Vivimos en casas muy pequeños, y no compramos
terrenos, y no tenemos policias de seguros, no
tenemos reglas.
Hay algunos que estan dos años que nosotros,
ellos pueden hacer lo que quieren, no hay
reglas.
Pero cuando tenemos la vision, cuando tenemos lo
que leemos en Hechos Capitulo 2, entonces queremos
entregar todo al Señor.
Y vivir en un pequeño cantidad de dinero
o lo demas para evangelizar el mundo.
Y por eso el Señor ha bendecido estos,
espiritualmente, peces y pan, multiplicando, multiplicando.
Mi primer viaje a Mexico, una carcancha, tienen
esa palabra aqui, un mil novecientos cuarenta y
nueve, un camioneta, bien enfermo.
Y ahora tenemos trescientos camionetas, ahora tenemos dos
barcos, porque la ley de los peces y
pan es la ley de Dios.
No quiere decir que siempre nuestro Dios obra
en esta forma, no podemos pensar eso.
El Señor esta usando diferentes personas en diferentes
maneras.
Yo no queria barcos, yo no queria ser
un lider grande de ningun grupo.
Yo no tenia ningun plan de tener una
organizacion de mil setcientos personas.
Me da miedo todo esto, yo solamente queria
adorar a nuestro Dios y obedecer su palabra.
Pero es una ley de multiplicacion, es una
ley de multiplicacion.
Y el Señor quiere multiplicar su vida.
No quiere decir que va a dar un
barco mañana.
Es poco dificil caminar por todo Mexico en
un barco.
Especialmente la ciudad de Mexico.
Ayer he visto esas montañas.
El Señor esta obrando en diferentes personas, en
diferentes formas.
Y nosotros tenemos que entender que la obra
de Dios va adelante con lagrimas, con sufrimientos,
con oracion y ayuno.
No hay camino facil en la obra de
Dios.
Por eso, esta obra en India que esta
en mi corazon mucho, tengo que salir aqui
jueves.
Me gusta quedar mas, pero tengo que salir
para ir a India.
No puedo entrar a India ahora, estaba alli
tres años, no puedo sacar mas visas.
Por eso voy a Nepal.
Yo creo que mas Mexicanos deben ir a
Nepal, aqui a mi hermano Pepe Barrios, no
se si esta aqui.
Alli esta.
El estaba en Nepal, todos pensaban que era
Nepali, porque los Mexicanos parecen un poco a
la gente de Nepal.
Y el tenia una puerta muy abierta alli.
Pero voy a Nepal la semana que viene
para juntar con los lideres y orar sobre
esta situacion tan grande, tan dificil que tenemos
por medio de este incendio.
Siempre en la obra de Dios hay dificultades,
hay batallas.
Y por eso es tan importante que tenemos
el fruto del Espiritu Santo.
Y que tenemos la realidad de ser llenos
del Espiritu Santo.
Vamos a ver Efecios.
Efecios capítulo 5, versículo
18.
Nos embriaguez con vino, en lo cual hay
disolucion.
Antes bien sed llenos del Espiritu.
Ahora hay mucha controversia en la iglesia.
Diferentes grupos, diferentes iglesias tienen diferentes enseñanzas sobre
el Espiritu Santo.
Algunos hablan del bautismo del Espiritu Santo.
Otros hablan de ser llenos del Espiritu Santo.
Otros hablan de desarrollar un crecimiento espiritual en
el Espiritu.
Y en algunos paises, no se como esta
aqui en Veracruz.
Hay iglesias peleando unos con otros.
Pletos, argumentos.
Y la iglesia muchas veces esta muy dividida,
muy dividida.
Yo creo que es una cosa muy importante.
Ser un poco mas humilde en todo que
creemos.
Y tratar de entender unos a otros.
En este barco tenemos jóvenes de diferentes iglesias.
No creemos exactamente igual.
Todos nosotros hemos experimentado el nacimiento nuevo.
Todos estan gracias a Dios creciendo en el
Señor.
Unos han recibido grandes experiencias.
Como un crisis, una crisis con el Espiritu
Santo.
Diferentes personas dan diferentes nombres a esa crisis.
Otros no han tenido tanto crisis, pero han
crecido.
Y estan experimentando hoy en este momento.
No todos en el barco.
Hay algunos aqui ahora desanimados.
Porque no es ningún juego trabajando en este
barco.
La mayor parte de las personas tienen que
trabajar nueve, diez horas cada dia.
Y muchos son jóvenes.
Solamente enseñar a esta generacion como trabajar.
Es un milagro.
Y hay algunos en este barco desanimados.
Y tal vez ustedes han pensado.
Bueno, los hombres del barco vienen dar ministerio
a nosotros.
Traer algunos libros.
Tal vez el Señor, tal vez el Espiritu
Santo va a usar a ustedes.
Para tener ministerio entre algunos de estos jóvenes.
Si, hay algunos lideres.
Hay algunos hombres de Dios que tienen muchos
años en la guerra espiritual.
Como nuestro hermano Frank Dietz.
Pero la mayor parte de las personas estan
en entrenamiento.
Y es un programa de entrenamiento muy bueno.
Pero no es automático.
No es automático.
La espiritualidad.
En mi oracion, en mi ministerio al crew.
Como se dice?
La tripulacion.
Cada dia estoy teniendo ministerio con ellos.
Mi deseo es ver cada uno de ellos
lleno del Espiritu Santo.
Y andandole al poder del Espiritu Santo.
Pero sabemos tambien que el Diablo va a
atacar.
Porque el siempre, como dice en 1 Pedro
5, 7 y 8.
El Diablo como un leon siempre esta tratando
de destruir los creyentes.
Necesitamos hermanos sus oraciones.
Hermano Ricardo Griffin.
Coordinador de nuestra obra en Mexico por 24
años.
Para que yo pude ir a España, India
y otros sitios.
El habla español perfectamente bien, no como yo.
El tiene una carga muy grande por este
gran pais.
Y el hace falta sus oraciones.
Y si hay algunos que quieren ser compañeros
de oracion.
Estoy seguro que una manera en que ellos
pueden dar sus direcciones.
Y recibir esta carta que Ricardo manda de
Mexico.
Cada mes, cada dos meses.
Para recibir informacion donde va el barco.
Que problemas tenemos, que dificultades en India, en
Egipto.
En otros paises.
Y yo creo que por medio de oracion.
Mexicanos, Americanos, Ingleses.
Podemos evangelizar el mundo.
Pero es importante entender.
La realidad del Espiritu Santo.
La necesidad de ser llenos del Espiritu Santo.
Y si tienes un crisis.
Pero si no continua.
En la palabra de Dios.
En crecimiento espiritual.
Entonces esta experiencia con el Espiritu Santo.
No va a tener mucho significado.
Hay muchos que me digan.
Oh hermano, hace 10 años el Espiritu Santo.
Me ha dado un golpe muy grande.
Me ha cambiado mi vida.
Y hoy.
Hoy.
Estas lleno hoy con el Espiritu Santo.
Estas experimentando el fruto hoy.
En su lugar, en su ministerio.
Es otra cosa.
Yo tenia que.
De vez en cuando.
Go a little slower.
Un poco mas lento mi vida.
Para aprender mas.
De nuestro Dios.
Y ser cada dia.
Lleno.
Del Espiritu Santo.
Hechos 1-8.
1-8.
Aqui hablamos otra vez del Espiritu Santo.
Muy importante.
Pero recibirez poder.
Versiculo 8.
Los hechos.
En realidad los hechos del Espiritu Santo.
Pero recibirez poder.
Cuando haya venido sobre vosotros el Espiritu Santo.
Y me sereis testigos en Jerusalem.
En todo Judea.
En Samaria.
Y hasta lo ultimo de la tierra.
Hasta lo ultimo de la tierra.
Yo creo.
Que cuando el Espiritu Santo.
Esta.
Obrando en nuestras vidas.
Entonces vamos a tener.
Vision por todo el mundo.
Y vamos a tambien.
Obedecer a nuestro Dios.
Y llevar el Evangelio.
A todo el mundo.
Vamos a ver dos otras referencias.
Muy importantes.
Segundo de Corintios.
Diez.
Dieciséis.
Segundo de Corintios.
Diez.
No.
Si.
Diez.
Y dieciséis.
Muy importante.
Segundo de Corintios.
Diez.
Dieciséis.
15, 20.
The same vision, the vision of Paul.
And I believe that the vision of Paul
must be our vision.
Our vision is not a Mexican, or American,
or European vision.
It is a New Testament vision.
It is an apostolic vision.
The vision of reaching the world with the
Gospel.
See Romans 15, 20.
And in this way, I strive to preach
the Gospel.
Verse 20 in Romans 15.
To preach the Gospel from where Christ had
already been named, so as not to build
upon the foundation of others.
The Holy Spirit, by revelation, wants to give,
this same day, more vision of the last
parts of the earth.
And also, the part that the Church in
Mexico must take.
Sunday night I was preaching in the Baptist
Church on Mina Street.
Almost the largest in Mexico.
I have given the Christian leaders there, and
some more that were there with us, the
message, in Spanish, for my brother here, easier
to understand.
The strongest message I have given in Mexico
for 25 years.
The Lord has given us a vision, and
Sunday night we have broken this vision with
all our hearts.
And this vision includes the need for the
Church in Mexico to send workers to other
parts of the world.
We have some very false ideas in our
minds here in Mexico.
Not all, some.
Because we have received a lot in the
past years, not so much now, but in
the past years we have received a lot.
Bibles, literature, missionaries from other countries.
England, some very strong missionaries from England have
arrived here.
Maybe people forget these things.
I remember that man, Mr. Ingram, in Mexico
City, 70 years ago, working, working.
It's a miracle, this man.
And others, others.
Now the Church in Mexico has arrived to
adult-ship.
Say it here, it's a very important phrase.
It has arrived to adult-ship.
She doesn't have to think only about receiving
missionaries, or more Bibles, or things, but she
has to think about what she can give.
What she can give.
And especially men and women, full of the
Holy Spirit, crucified with Christ, and ready to
work.
Now we're not going to do this overnight,
but we have to start.
And there are churches here, that could send
at least one.
One!
I'm not asking for much.
Look at your Bible, very quickly, because time
is almost passing.
Matthew 9, very important, St. Matthew 9.
I wanted to say that if there are
some who want this tape, that we have
in Mexico.
No, we don't have it here, and we're
not going to have it for a week.
But if you want that tape, the message
of this vision that has been given, in
the Church of Mina, we're ready to send
the tape.
But you have to give your name and
address, and you can explain how they can
do that.
St. Matthew, chapter 9, the last verses.
Then he said to his disciples, the truth
is that there are many, but the workers
are few.
And now I can also say, few.
And many times there are no Mexicans.
Because there are almost no Mexicans, working in
other parts of the world.
There are some, yes, in the United States,
that's fine.
That's fine.
I'm not going to talk about that.
And some, very few, have gone to Spain.
Glory to God!
I don't despise anything that the Church has
done.
But until now, the vision to vandalize the
world with Mexicans, is not there.
Very few.
I don't know how they pray here, with
this passage, where he says, then he said
to his disciples, the truth is that there
are many, but the workers are few.
Pray, then, to the Lord of the workers,
that he send workers to his workers.
How do we obey this verse here in
Veracruz, in Mexico?
When we have a worship cult, when we
are obeying the word of God, as Jesus
teaches here.
Then, in obeying the Lord, we have to
pray, we have to pray, that the Lord
of the workers, send workers to his workers.
How do we pray?
Oh my Lord, the workers are many, workers
are needed.
I ask in your name, send more workers
from New York, to evangelize the world.
I ask in your name, Lord, send more
from Argentina, or send more from England.
How?
It's nonsense.
We have to pray, brothers, we have to
pray, Oh Lord, we ask in your name,
send Mexicans, send people from our church.
And it is the responsibility of the pastors,
and pastors, brothers, the blood of this world
is in their hands.
Because there is nothing in the word of
God to evangelize Mexico.
There is only to evangelize the world.
You have done a great job in Mexico.
There are two million evangelists, and I know
that there is much more need still, for
sure, for sure.
But at least we can think of sending
some.
I'm not even talking about Operation Mobilization, because
we don't believe that we are the organization
to take 100 Mexicans to other parts of
the world.
But there are other organizations, and there are
churches, and there is a revolution in the
missions these days.
I'm not talking about myself.
There are many leaders, including leaders of the
church, who believe that the hour has already
passed.
It has already passed.
And we have to repent, and begin to
obey the word of God, by saving, by
fasting, by working, to send Mexican workers to
Spain, to the Arab world, where there is
almost no testimony.
Thank God there is a Mexican there now,
Pablo Carrillo, working in the Arab world.
Let's pray for him, because he is almost
the only Mexican working in the Muslim world.
One in every five people in the world
is a Muslim.
One in every five.
And less than 2%, less than 2%
are working among themselves.
There are more foreigners working in Central America,
in Mexico, than there are workers working all
over the Muslim world.
All over the Muslim world.
900 million inhabitants.
One in every five in the world.
How many churches are saving for the Muslim
world?
How many are taking books, like the book
of prayer, about the whole world, using it
for prayer, and believing that, like in the
New Testament, some workers can leave their churches.
I cannot explain well the vision that is
in my heart.
I have to ask for your forgiveness if
I have not explained well.
I have to ask for your forgiveness.
