Oh my goodness, God is good.
Is God good?
God is good.
God is awesome.
Well, I'd like to just read one verse.
You don't need to turn to it.
You can look at it later, but you're
familiar with it.
It's found in one of the deepest chapters
in the New Testament, John 14.
And it's verse 12, verse 13, I'm sorry.
You can ask for anything, Jesus said, you
can ask for anything in my name, and
I will do it, so that the Father
might be glorified in the Son.
Yes, ask anything in my name, and I
will do it.
You can ask for anything, I'm repeating now,
and in my name, Jesus said, and I
will do it.
Notice the prayer is to Jesus, and He
said He will do it, because the work
of the Son brings glory to the Father,
so that the Father might be glorified in
the Son.
Yes, ask anything in my name, and I
will do it.
Chapter 14 of John is so deep, isn't
it?
Begins with, don't let your hearts be troubled,
don't be afraid, I go to prepare a
place for you.
Jesus was going to leave the scene, and
after three and a half years of walking
with these disciples, apprehension absolutely filled their hearts.
How would they manage without their master, their
rabbi, their teacher, their all in all.
And Jesus actually said something that totally amazed
them, it's better for you that I go,
and they were like, there's no way you
going is better in any way, shape, or
form.
But Jesus said, because unless I go, I
won't be able to send the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit in you, revealing things concerning
me, will be greater than me with you.
Yes, walking on the water, calling Lazarus out
of the tomb, it'll be better in that
day for you, because I've only been with
you, but he will be in you.
And after three and a half years of
teaching, Jesus didn't have that much to show
in terms of long lasting results, because on
the night he was betrayed, which is coming
soon after, is this night of John 14,
they all fled.
They all fled.
So it goes to show that hearing the
greatest of preachers and having the Son of
God as your model is no way to
be compared with the Holy Spirit in us.
Christianity is hopeless without the Holy Ghost.
It's hopeless without it, you can't do anything.
Now Jesus here is indicating some wonderful things,
two of which we will not touch on,
because it's another sermon for another day.
Praying in his name.
This is the first mention in John, which
has so much different material, especially in John
14 through 17, material that's not found in
the synoptic Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke.
And this last talk with the disciples is
filled with things like this.
Pray in my name.
This had not been taught to them.
Representing Christ in Christ's stead, using his name
as a signature in prayer.
That has a lot of meaning to us
if we would stop and study it.
Also notice the latitude, the huge vastness of
the potential of prayer.
Ask anything, he repeats it, ask anything in
my name and I will do it.
Notice also here, instead of prayer to the
Father in the name of Christ, with the
help of the Holy Spirit, the general Christian
formula, this is an exception where ask me
and I will do it.
Prayer to Jesus, like prayer to the Spirit,
is acceptable, even though the traditional formula, as
I mentioned, is our Father which art in
heaven, coming in Christ's name.
So the latitude of it, ask anything in
my name.
But then he touches on two things in
this little sentence, which most of us take
and focus on the prayer aspects of it.
But he touches on the two things which
come to my heart today, about 50 years
of Westgate Chapel.
I'm here to celebrate that day with you
and to remind you of two simple little
thoughts.
That's all I have for you to remember.
Because I think it has a lot to
do with the fact that your church is
not only existing after 50 years, but is
prospering and being blessed by God.
The first thing that's strange about this text,
which I would like to apply to you
all here, is Jesus saying, ask anything in
my name and I will do it, so
you will get out of your bind and
you'll be helped.
No, he doesn't say that.
Ask anything in my name and I will
do it, so that that wayward daughter or
wayward son that you're just concerned about will
come back.
No, he doesn't say that.
The answer obviously is important, but he says
the reason for the answer is more important.
Ask anything in my name and I will
do it, so that my Father might be
glorified.
The purpose of all prayer...
No, we're going to go further.
The purpose of everything is that God might
be glorified.
From the beginning of Genesis to the end
of Revelation, there are many truths in the
Bible.
And there are so many truths in the
Bible, you can look at it as layers
of truth, with foundational truths being on the
bottom, or you can look at it as
a solar system.
And you can say the sun is in
the middle and the planets are moving around
the sun.
And of course, in the Bible there are
different solar systems of truth.
But in the center, around which all of
the truths move, have their place, are important.
But the center truth of the entire Bible
is sometimes missed by us, because we over
-focus on some of the other planetary truths,
if I may use that term.
The central truth of the whole Bible, from
Genesis to Revelation, the bottom line, at the
end of time, when we pass into eternity,
we will see it clearer than ever, and
this is the truth.
Everything is for the glory of God.
Everything is for God.
Everything.
I was noticing again, every time I come
to this beautiful part of the country, I
happen to love trees, and the way your
trees are here, different than trees in New
York, if we can find one in New
York, that's another whole problem.
But your trees here are so beautiful.
You know why those trees are put on
this planet Earth?
So that God might be glorified.
The sun broke out while we were driving
here early this morning.
You know why God put a sun there?
Not just to give us light.
So that when you look at it, He
might be praised and glorified.
How awesome God speaks through creation.
Name anything.
See these flowers?
Real?
I hope.
Yes, they're real.
This is for the glory of God.
They not only decorate, but they were created
for the glory of God.
A tree, a human, a baby.
Anything, music.
Name anything in the universe, and it was
created for the glory of God.
Everything is for God.
Say that with me.
Everything is for God.
Uno mas, one more time.
Everything is for God.
Come on, a little louder, everybody.
Everything is for God.
Today is Sunday, June 7th.
Why did God give us another day?
For the glory of God.
Do you have a job?
A lot of us, we have hundreds.
What's that one say?
Oh, a little child's hand.
In New York, we have hundreds of people
without a job.
In our church.
Carol was doing something with the choir the
other day, Pastor Alec, and they were singing
a song, and the Holy Spirit, I felt,
speak to me.
And as the track was going on for
this song, about my life is in your
hands, I just said, because the thing was
hooked up to me, the earpiece, I said,
everyone who's without a job, you come from
that auditorium.
My tears flowed.
Hundreds of people coming forward.
This downturn has really affected New Yorkers on
how it is here.
If you have a job, God gave it
to you for the glory of God.
If you have a problem, it's for the
glory of God.
If you're on a mountain, it's for the
glory of God.
Whatever there is in life, it's for the
glory of God, that God might be praised.
And this is why Jesus said, ask anything
and I will do it for you, so
that the Father might be glorified in the
Son.
That God might receive glory.
Think how that will change our prayers.
All this frivolous stuff about, why am I
driving a Ford, I should have a Mercedes.
How in the world are you going to
compare that for the glory of God?
You can't ask anything selfish if it's for
the glory of God.
You can't ever say if you're possessed with
a bitterness in you, God, let my mother
-in-law get a case of the flu
or something, for the glory of God.
No, I can't pray that.
I can't pray that.
Notice, for the glory of God, praying in
Jesus' name, reduces things down and simplifies life
for us.
You don't need a hundred and ten commandments
to figure out life today.
At lunch today, when you're about to say
something, and you think about what you're going
to say, ask yourself this, is this sentence
for the glory of God?
Your attitude towards your mother-in-law, father
-in-law, husband, wife, anything you're going to
say, anything you're going to do, is it
for the glory of God?
Now God created us, the Catechism says, the
Apostles' Creed says, that we were created for
the glory of God and to enjoy Him
forever, to enjoy His presence and His love.
This is why life becomes empty, even for
believers.
There's a strange emptiness in us the moment
we lose our center truth, the minute the
sun isn't looked at, S-U-N, the
minute you lose your foundation and you begin
to live for your glory or your pleasure,
automatically happiness begins to escape you.
Joy and peace, you can't find it.
As Charles Finney, the great revivalist and preacher
said, God has made us so that the
harder you try to be happy, the less
you will be.
And when you forget trying to be happy
and just live for the glory of God
and you praise Him, happiness is chasing you
all over and you can hardly get away
from it.
How many know what I'm talking about?
Lift your hand and say Amen.
The peace and the joy of God come
naturally when you keep the right focus that
God created for all creation.
Animals were created for the glory of God.
Everything that is made, every river, every salmon
swimming, everything is created for the glory of
God.
And then how this simplifies life.
God put my wife and I together for
the glory of God.
As long as we remember that, God's going
to help our marriage.
Now, may I say this about your church?
I, of course, am new to your church
when you think of 50 years.
But I saw that video that was deeply
moving to me this morning, this video.
Obviously, the people who started this church weren't
trying to make a buck and weren't trying
to get ahead in life by pioneering a
new church called Westgate Chapel.
The people who started that, that man was
very moving, wasn't he on that video?
He was doing it for the glory of
God.
And when you and I do anything for
the glory of God, we not only find
our proper center, we not only have all
the powers of heaven begin to operate upon
us in a beneficial way, but God opens
the windows of heaven and helps everyone and
anyone who is doing something for the glory
of God.
If Jim Cymbala is the center, if some
church name like the Brooklyn Tabernacle or Westgate
Chapel is the one who's supposed to be
focused on, then the Holy Spirit withdraws its
influences because the Holy Spirit was only sent
to glorify Christ, that God might be glorified
in Christ.
And how easy that is to forget when
you preach.
It's not about me.
I'm here to point you toward God.
If you remember me too much or what
I said, I failed.
But if you go home and say, I
don't know who that guy was who preached,
but oh, how awesome God is, then I've
done a good job.
Now, I want to say something.
I know your present leadership, and I'm talking
about more than just the pastor and his
wife, but all the people around them that
are in leadership here, and I'm impressed by
them.
They've been a blessing to me.
Obviously, this is one of the reasons why
God has blessed your church.
Did you notice in the construction of that
DVD, which I had never seen until now,
do you notice the wisdom in that, the
narration, the way it was handled by the
pastor?
He's deflecting everything away from human sources, and
he's giving all the glory to God.
Why did these things happen?
Because God was good.
Why are we still here today?
Because God is faithful.
Building half burnt down, devil tried to destroy,
but God had the last word.
Not we did, I did.
It's all about me.
It's all about God.
And whenever God sees that, He's going to
bless.
He's going to help.
Think of all the churches that are held
back from the presence of God, and the
moving of the Holy Spirit, because God sees
it's all about them.
It's like the same revivalist Finney said back
in the 1830s.
He said some churches pray for revival, but
they'll know very little of what God can
do, because they want revival, so they can
say, look, we have revival.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
We have revival.
You don't.
Our church is bigger.
Da, da, da, da, da.
And God's not sending His Holy Spirit so
that we'll be on some ego trip.
God is going to send His Holy Spirit
in your life, in my life, in this
church, in any church that says, to God
be the glory.
To God be the glory.
Does God deserve all the glory or what?
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
How about, forget this church.
Forget this church.
How about you, sir?
How about you, ma'am?
Would you be here today if it wasn't
for the grace of God?
Who should you be giving glory to in
I?
I wasn't even a good Christian growing up.
My brother, older brother, was a better Christian.
He lives in Portland.
And my sister, younger sister, she was a
better Christian.
I was erratic, a truant in high school,
basketball player, but running all around, doing crazy
things.
And I'm in the ministry?
I'm in the ministry?
Are you kidding me?
I'm the last person anyone would have thought.
In fact, an older man who was separated
from our circles for a year, our family,
when he heard I was in the ministry,
he almost had a cardiac arrest and died.
Why am I here today?
Because I'm somebody special?
Forget that.
It's because God is awesome, full of mercy,
full of compassion.
And you, come on, between you and God,
don't you know what you're really like apart
from God's grace?
We're all here.
This church is here so that God might
be glorified.
So I want to do something.
You ready to do something with me?
Outside the box a little bit?
Huh?
I said, are you ready to do something
outside the box?
How many believe this truth that everything is
for the glory of God?
Lift your hand up.
Okay.
Everybody stand.
Before I give you my last little point,
we're going to make a joyful noise to
the Lord.
At the count of three, you're going to
start clapping your hands as loud as you've
ever clapped them.
Louder than at the Seattle Seahawks game.
Louder than the Mariners, right?
Than Ichiro when he gets a hit.
They go crazy there and nobody laughs at
them.
But let anybody get excited in church and
right away, fanatics, crazy people.
I thought that anybody controlled me that way.
People can scream at Olympics and cry on
Broadway, watching some Broadway play, and then we
get a little excited in church.
I'm not going to let anybody condemn me
and make me feel sensitive.
God deserves all my praise.
And I know He's worthy of all the
glory because in heaven, guess what we're going
to be doing?
Around the throne, worthy is the one who
sits on the throne.
So at the count of three, you're not
only going to clap louder than you ever
have, but you're going to shout so loud
that downtown Seattle is going to hear it.
You're going to shout, Hallelujah, praise God.
You shout whatever God gives you, but you're
going to make a joyful noise.
You don't have to do it unless you
believe what I just said from the Word
of God, that God is worthy of all
the praise.
One, two, three.
Let's do it.
Hallelujah.
Hallelujah, God.
We praise you.
We worship you.
Blessed be the name of the Lord.
You may be seated.
How many feel better?
Say amen.
Amen.
This is one of the secrets of worshiping
God.
When you and I worship God like we
just did, and there's different forms, obviously, of
worshiping God, you will feel a joy stirring
in you, no matter how you feel when
you begin, because when we praise God, when
we worship God, we are doing what we
were created for.
This is why some people wonder why is
the presence of the Lord, why He dwells
in worship.
He dwells in worship.
He sits down like a king to dispense
things when people praise Him.
Because this is what we're created for.
Not to have a job.
God did not create you to have a
job, save money, build a nice house, retire.
You think God created you for that?
You think He sent His Son for that?
No.
He sent His Son.
He saved us so that He might get
all the glory and pray.
All over Seattle today, people are cursing Jesus,
just like in New York.
I remind the audience of that to try
to get the people to remember to praise
God.
Because crack deals are going down in downtown
Brooklyn where I pastor.
Crack deals are going down and people sell
crack and go, for Christ's sake, will you
hand me the money, please?
With a lot of four-letter words thrown
in.
For Christ's sake this, Christ for this.
And they're using His name, but not in
God's house.
Here we praise His name.
Let me say amen.
We magnify His name.
Let's put our hands together one more time.
We glorify His name.
We praise His name.
Now this, before I close with the other
thought beside everything is for God, I'm just
reminded of something else.
This is why God so detests pride.
Did you notice that in the Bible, God
has a thing about pride worse than any
other sin?
For God resists the proud, but He gives
grace to the humble.
God resists the proud.
The proud will not stand in the assembly
of the righteous.
God's got a thing.
You know why?
It reminds Him of the smell that ruined
heaven.
Because before there was a devil to tempt
anyone, Lucifer was turned from the most beautiful
of God's angelic creation into Satan.
And he was turned that way because instead
of giving glory to God, he wanted a
piece of the action.
He wanted glory.
That's why the Bible has this thing about
pride and the Bible so lifts up humility
because I am happiest, you and I will
always be happiest when we're down and we're
exalting God.
The minute we start to think and take
ourselves serious, we're going to be in trouble
because God will not share His glory with
anyone.
He deserves all the praise.
This is why your church...
By the way, I've got to commend.
Did you notice the inspiration of those choir
members?
Obviously, your leadership...
And I'm talking about more than the music.
The music, to me, is secondary.
Did you see their faces?
No one trained them to do that.
I looked up while Sister Rita was leading
that last song and I look up in
the tenor section and just like in Carol's
Choir, there's a guy not even looking at
the director.
His hands are up, his eyes are closed,
he's crying like a baby, he's praising God
because obviously this spirit of giving God all
the glory has been caught by people singing,
so it's not about performance.
Hey, listen to this song we're going to
sing.
Watch this.
It's not about that.
That would turn us off and grieve God's
Spirit.
No, I love when people sing and they're
lost, just, Oh God, be praised.
God, be worshiped.
And He deserves it.
One last thing.
Everything is for God.
And now, Jesus said, when you pray, ask
this, and I'll do it for you, ask
in my name, which touches on the other
bottom line foundational truth in the Bible.
Way before Abraham, way before the cross, way,
way, way, deep, deep, deep down.
Everything is for God, the glory of God.
That's the bottom of it all.
But right next to that is everything is
from God.
Everything must come from God, or there is
nothing to work with.
Everything is for God.
This day, me and the ministry, the Brooklyn
Tabernacle, Westgate Chapel, you, me, everyone, we're all
made for the glory of God.
And the more we give Him that glory,
praise God.
Life is just filled with beautiful things.
Now, at the same time, everything must come
from God.
Go back with me here to creation.
Go back with me before creation, if you
can imagine that.
As I mentioned earlier today, the scientists now
who deny God, and many of them deny
a creator and the creative act, they are
now agreeing, though, linked to the Big Bang
Theory, that there was a moment when not
only energy was created, not only energy was
created, there was no energy.
Energy, matter, and time, all began at some
moment, according to the Big Bang Theory.
And people who don't believe in God are
admitting, we can trace back the fact there's
radiation proof now of this explosion, this beginning,
admitting that there's still traces of it in
the universe.
Very interesting thought, covered by some very noted
apologists.
But prior to that, when there was no
such a thing as time, which we can't
fathom, God created, began everything.
And not only in the beginning God created
the heavens and earth, but now we find
out that God begins to make vegetation and
separates the waters and begins to make the
fowls of the air and the fish in
the sea.
Vegetation.
And then the Bible says He created Adam
and from Adam Eve, and now Adam and
Eve are together.
Now, analyze this with me.
Adam and Eve wake up one morning and
what do they have to eat that day?
Only what God gave them.
The breath that they're breathing, it all began
when God breathed the breath of life into
them.
So the very breath in them came from
God.
The oxygen that they need from moment to
moment, God has put into the atmosphere.
Cut off from oxygen, they will die.
Any clothes they're eventually going to wear, God
is going to have to provide for them.
Because Adam and Eve were created never to
have anything of their own.
They were only made as receiving vessels.
The joy that they would have in life
would be to be the creation under a
wonderful creator who would supply everything they need,
emotionally, psychologically, physically, and spiritually.
Fellowship with Him.
And He came and He walked with them
in the cool of the day.
But everything they had, if you would ask
them, How did you get this?
How did you get that?
They would say, I have nothing but what
He gave me.
Everything came from Him.
Now this part of salvation, this part of
God's plan for our life is, I believe,
lost to a lot of us and it
ends up in tremendous struggles.
I can only share my own.
We get saved and we accept the historical
record of the Bible pertaining to Christ on
the cross.
And we know that 2,000 years ago
this Son of God, Emmanuel, God and yet
man, man yet God, died on the cross
and He did something that we could never
do for ourselves.
He made atonement.
Left to myself and my sin, I should
be damned forever.
I know that.
The soul that sinneth, it should surely die.
I'm guilty of that.
I'm aware of that.
So I accept by faith the fact that
God did for me, once again, God did
for me what I could never do for
myself.
Through His love and His grace, He sent
His Son into the world.
He not only washed away all my sins
as I put my faith in Him, but
on top of that, He wrote my name
in the Lamb's Book of Life and Jesus
went and prepared a place for us.
We're going to be all together.
Forget the 50 year anniversary.
We're going to go through 5 million years
and it'll be like an instant.
And none of us here, one second into
eternity, will remember anything we call a problem
today.
It'll all be done away with in a
split millisecond.
And we're going to be with Him.
Why?
Because He provided that for us as part
of His salvation.
But too many of us, like myself growing
up, said, God, thank You for Christ.
Thank You for the cross.
Thank You for the blood that the choir
was singing about.
Thank You, thank You, thank You.
And now, I know You want me to
be like Christ and I know I want
to live a life glorifying to You and
I know You're worthy of all the praise.
Now, I'm going to do my hardest.
I will try with all of my strength
to show You that I really do love
You and I'm going to be a good
person for You.
And if we mess up, which we do,
which we all have, we try even harder.
But brothers and sisters, I leave you with
this thought.
With what are you trying with?
When you see your weakness, when you see
your susceptibility to a vulnerability that you have
morally, when you see your temper getting out
of control again, when you see a calling
to impurity that you know is not God's
best for you, when your mouth is open
to gossip rather than saying something edifying, when
you see yourself being lifted up with pride
and wanting people to notice you, when you
know that's wrong and you want to be
different, I'm asking you something.
Can a leopard change his spots?
With what are you going to work with?
What do I have in me that I
can change anything?
The only change I can ever have in
Jim Cymbala is God changing me to the
power of the Holy Spirit.
I have no love.
I have no purity.
You're looking at a mess of a person
today.
But at the same time, because everything is
not only for him, but everything is from
him, Paul can say at the same time,
I am the chief of sinners, in me
dwelleth no good things, yet I can do
all things through Christ who strengthens me.
Because everything comes from God.
And we live with this wonderful juxtaposition of
conscious weakness and yet bold faith that Jim
Cymbala can never say, I have nothing to
work with.
If you tell me to be kind, I
have no kindness in me.
The only kindness I have in me is
when Christ is living through me.
Because everything is not only for him, but
everything is from him.
Just like Adam and Eve were so helpless,
we are just as hopeless still.
And this is why Jesus said that sentence
that a lot of us like to skip
over or parse and make to mean something
different if you would come, my sister.
Without me, Jesus said, you can do what?
Without me, Jesus said, you can do...
Oh, come on, we can do something.
Please, we can do something.
I know I need a little help around
the edges, but don't make me out a
basket case.
Don't tell me I can do nothing.
Are you trying to tell me that I'm
that hopeless and helpless?
Yes.
You don't have to say yes so loud
there, brother.
And not only do we feel peace and
joy when we realize everything is for him,
what a rest comes when you stop struggling
and you say everything is from him.
Everything is from him.
And I deal a lot with crack addicts,
and I'm working now with a young lady
who's breaking my heart.
She's a young lady who was raped and
mauled when she was 11 or 12 and
has been out in the street basically prostituting,
crack addict.
In the last five years, she's 25, the
last five years, she's been mostly in Rikers
Island, prison in New York, and out, in,
out, hustling in the street.
My wife and I in the church, she
came to us, she opened her heart to
Christ, made some progress, and now the battle
is on.
Now the battle is on.
And last time I was with Tanesia, I'm
praying for today, she's on my heart right
now.
Don't know exactly where she is, but she
ran from us, and the battle is on.
But I've been in a bunch of these
battles.
God's gonna have the last word.
She's my daughter, I told her that.
She once fell on my shoulder in front
of a lot of people at the church
and said, would you be my dad?
Whispered that to me.
She knows nothing about a father and trust.
But her problem is, she knows what's wrong,
but she's trying to cure herself.
You can't.
Just like you can't wash away your sins,
you and I can't live for one day.
Without a continual flow of God's grace.
And maybe you're here today struggling with something,
and I don't want to go against the
spirit of this church, even though it's a
memorial or a special celebratory service.
Because not only is everything for God, but
this church has emphasized also that everything comes
from God.
Thus the stress by the pastor and the
leadership on the Tuesday night prayer meeting.
Ah, it's just dawning on me now.
That's why God said, my house shall be
called a house of prayer.
Not in this way, like I heard growing
up.
Pray!
You gotta pray!
No.
God said my house shall be called a
house of prayer because I love my people
so much.
I have so much to give them.
But they gotta concentrate and open up to
me and trust me.
And then I'll just pour out everything they
need.
So my house shall not be called a
house of preaching.
Not a house of praise and worship, as
important as those are.
But my house shall be called a house
of prayer because not only everything is for
God, but everything is from God.
Are you heartbroken today?
I know I just now thinking of Tunisia.
I need faith.
Everything comes from God.
Name one thing that you need has to
come from God.
I need faith.
Because I just spent a lot of time
a few weeks ago trying to help her.
I got her house to stay in before
I could get her in this program.
Invest a lot of time, tears, heartache.
Got her clean.
Brought her to the church to be picked
up to go on the program.
She walked right down the street.
The street is calling her.
You know they say crack has a voice
when it calls you, you gotta come.
That's what they say in the street.
The street has a voice.
And all she's ever known is just no
self-control, no schedule, no sequential living.
Just catch as catch can.
That's all my daughter knows, Tunisia.
So I need faith for her.
Because I didn't pray for her yesterday.
Haven't prayed for her today, but now God
brought her to me.
So I know I need, I want to
see Tunisia say, by the way, I can
say, Father God, Tunisia coming to you will
bring you great glory.
I'm not asking for a nicer car.
I want Tunisia.
Maybe you close your eyes with me.
Maybe you have a son or a daughter
that you know if there's gonna be a
change, it's gonna have to come from God.
Pastor Jim Cimbala, you are on the money.
The word of God is true.
Nothing's happening unless God comes.
Maybe in your own life emotionally, maybe it's
financially, maybe something in your marriage, something in
your family, something where the enemy is attacking
you in a way that only you and
God know about.
You're involved in spiritual warfare and you need
something fresh from God, big time, ASAP.
And this Sunday he brought you here and
in keeping with the spirit of 50 years
of this church, we're gonna pray for you
and then let you go.
If you're here in the balcony or downstairs
and you say, Pastor, I have a special
need right now.
It's weighing on my heart.
Like Tunisia is for you.
Come to the altar and I'll meet you
there because I've been just convicted.
I need to believe God for Tunisia.
Anybody wanna join me down here?
We'll pray together.
Anybody have any kind of special need where
you know, I need something from God, I
need something from heaven.
Would you just come up out of your
seat and join with me right here?
