I'll tell you what the blessing of God is.

0:00:09.800,0:00:11.170
Being in the will of God,

0:00:11.170,0:00:12.380
walking with Him,

0:00:12.380,0:00:13.690
hearing His voice,

0:00:13.690,0:00:15.700
staying in fellowship with Him,

0:00:15.700,0:00:17.110
knowing His Word,

0:00:17.110,0:00:18.430
loving Him.

0:00:18.430,0:00:21.520
Seeing miracles wrought because He's doing it through your life,

0:00:21.520,0:00:24.150
and in your life for His own glory.

0:00:24.150,0:00:27.910
Were only He can get glory out of your life.

0:00:27.910,0:00:29.869
That is the life of faith.

0:00:29.869,0:00:34.999
It might mean that you don't have anything.

0:00:36.559,0:00:38.769
Can I say this to you?

0:00:38.769,0:00:41.360
There is another day coming,

0:00:41.360,0:00:45.240
and this world is not all there is to it.

0:00:45.240,0:00:47.860
Jesus said that those people who live by faith,

0:00:47.860,0:00:51.549
of whom the world is not worthy,

0:00:51.549,0:00:55.070
but there is another world.

0:00:55.070,0:00:58.750
And in that world they're not worthy to be there,

0:00:58.750,0:01:03.739
and yet the Bible says they'll shine as the stars forever.

0:01:06.239,0:01:08.510
It's going to be a good time.

0:01:08.850,0:01:09.930
It's going to be a good time.

0:01:09.930,0:01:12.369
When all the wrongs are made right,

0:01:12.369,0:01:14.280
and everything that is upside down

0:01:14.280,0:01:17.429
will be straightened up.

0:01:19.149,0:01:21.570
All the things that we can't straighten out here,

0:01:21.570,0:01:23.979
are straightened out.

0:01:26.459,0:01:29.590
They're having a pretty good time over there right now.

0:01:30.960,0:01:34.259
And by the way, it's just on the other side,

0:01:34.259,0:01:36.200
we see through a glass darkly.

0:01:36.200,0:01:42.270
I think every once in a while I can hear somebody laughing over there.

0:01:42.270,0:01:47.329
Guys this world's not what it's about.

0:01:47.329,0:01:49.509
This is not where your fulfillment is.

0:01:49.509,0:01:53.009
Here, you live by faith,

0:01:53.009,0:01:55.050
not by sight.

0:01:55.050,0:01:57.609
Then we'll see Him as He is,

0:01:57.609,0:01:59.440
and we'll be like Him,

0:01:59.440,0:02:03.040
and then it'll be by sight.

0:02:03.700,0:02:04.560
I love you.

0:02:04.560,0:02:06.609
I thank God for letting me get to know you.

0:02:07.269,0:02:11.428
I was sitting over there while ago thinking Heaven's like this.

0:02:11.428,0:02:13.510
They're laughing.

0:02:13.510,0:02:15.849
They're hugging one another.

0:02:15.849,0:02:19.730
They're experiencing pure love.

0:02:19.730,0:02:21.140
And if Jesus walks into the room

0:02:21.140,0:02:24.620
they are stop and bow and worship,

0:02:24.620,0:02:25.940
and weep and say,

0:02:25.940,0:02:27.530
"Thank you Jesus."

0:02:27.530,0:02:29.450
"Thank you Lord; thank you Lord."

0:02:29.450,0:02:30.900
And then they laugh,

0:02:30.900,0:02:31.849
and they hug,

0:02:31.849,0:02:34.569
and they renew old acquaintances.

0:02:34.569,0:02:37.090
And they looked at somebody and say,

0:02:37.090,0:02:39.549
"Wow, I didn't know me you were going to be here,

0:02:39.549,0:02:42.870
it's so good to see you."

0:02:42.870,0:02:45.320
Heaven's a wonderful place.

0:02:45.320,0:02:46.970
That old boy will answer and say,

0:02:46.970,0:02:50.939
"Yeah, God saved me five years after our lives parted,

0:02:50.939,0:02:52.930
God saved me."

0:02:52.930,0:02:54.519
And I have to say to those of you

0:02:54.519,0:02:59.239
who have never come to Christ alone.

0:02:59.239,0:03:02.870
He is the only way to God.

0:03:03.710,0:03:05.510
"What should I do brother Mike?"

0:03:05.510,0:03:09.189
You should repent of your sins and look to Christ.

0:03:09.189,0:03:10.569
And in looking, listen,

0:03:10.569,0:03:11.730
you should just look to Christ

0:03:11.730,0:03:13.819
because if you genuinely look to Christ

0:03:13.819,0:03:15.810
you are turning away from your sins.

0:03:15.810,0:03:17.739
Look to Jesus.

0:03:17.739,0:03:19.010
Turn away from yourself.

0:03:19.010,0:03:21.420
Turn away from what you're believing today.

0:03:21.420,0:03:23.000
Turn away from what you're trusting.

0:03:23.000,0:03:24.700
Look to Jesus Christ,

0:03:24.700,0:03:26.739
the dying Lamb of God.

0:03:26.739,0:03:30.720
The Bible says upon whom God poured His wrath out

0:03:30.720,0:03:33.129
for your sin and for my sin.

0:03:33.129,0:03:37.239
God poured His wrath out on the Son of God

0:03:37.239,0:03:39.040
as if He hated Him

0:03:39.040,0:03:41.980
because He hated us and our sins,

0:03:41.980,0:03:44.640
but Jesus took that in our place.

0:03:44.640,0:03:48.070
Our God took that in our place

0:03:48.070,0:03:50.349
that we might be saved.

0:03:50.349,0:03:52.480
Turn away from everything else,

0:03:52.480,0:03:53.629
turn to Christ.

0:03:53.629,0:03:54.700
I admonish you,

0:03:54.700,0:03:55.499
I beg you,

0:03:55.499,0:03:57.120
I plead with you:

0:03:57.120,0:03:58.530
turn to Jesus Christ.

0:03:59.150,0:04:03.010
For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. - Philippians 1:21
