10 Things the Hand of God Can Do For You!

The Hand of God is the best way to describe the actions of God, but the LORD does not necessarily need to raise His Hands before manifestation. His willful thoughts sparks to authority of implementation far beyond human understanding.

Today’s message will highlight some mighty outputs the Hand of God can do for you.

Ten Things the Hand of God Can Do!

1. Hand of God can Receive your possessions snatched by your enemies

An instance was recorded in the book of first Samuel chapter 5 verse 11 which says: “So they sent and gathered all the lords of the Philistines, and said, “Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go back to its own place, so that it does not kill us and our people.” For there was a deadly destruction throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.”

2. The Hand of God makes a stubborn heart to become obedient

I am a living witness to this great manifestation of the LORD and another example is the Israelites as recorded in the book of second Chronicles chapter 30 verse 12:

“Also, the hand of God was on Judah to give them singleness of heart to obey the command of the king and the leaders, at the word of the LORD.”  

3. Your peaceful enjoyment in life can only occur through the Hand of God

The book of Ecclesiastes chapter 2 verse 24 says: “Nothing is better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and that his soul should enjoy good in his labor. This also, I saw, was from the hand of God.”

4. It is the Hand of God that can make you wise and righteous

The book of Ecclesiastes chapter 9 verse 1 says: “For I considered all this in my heart, so that I could declare it all: that the righteous and the wise and their works are in the hand of God.”

5. The Hand of God can Bless your work to make you rich

I started my life as a poor guy but when I gave my soul, body and spirit to the LORD I became wealthy.

Book of Genesis chapter 26 recorded how the Hand of God blessed Isaac: “There was a famine in the land… Then the LORD appeared to him and said:

“Do not go down to Egypt; live in the land of which I shall tell you. Then Isaac sowed in that land and reaped in the same year a hundredfold; and the LORD blessed him.”

6. Hand of God can stop all forms of destruction heading towards you

The book of second Samuel chapter 24 verse 16 says: “And when the angel stretched out His hand over Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD relented from the destruction and said to the angel who was destroying the people, “It is enough; now restrain your hand.”

7. Are you afraid to go to war? The Hand of God can win your battle!

One of the instances I love to share is recorded in the book of second Chronicles chapter 32 verse 20 and 21: “Now because of this King Hezekiah and the prophet Isaiah, the son of Amoz, prayed and cried out to heaven.

“Then the LORD sent an angel who cut down every mighty man of valor, leader, and captain in the camp of the king of Assyria. So, he returned shamefaced to his own land. And when he had gone into the temple of his god, some of his own offspring struck him down with the sword there.”

8. The Hand of God can change impossibility to possibility

An example of such wonder is recorded in the book of second Kings chapter 6 verse 5 and 6: “But as one was cutting down a tree, the iron ax head fell into the water; and he cried out and said, “Alas, master! For it was borrowed.”

So, the man of God said, “Where did it fall?” And he showed him the place. So, he cut off a stick and threw it in there; and he made the iron float.”

9. The Lord’s Hand is a supernatural speed to lift you above competitors

Elijah speed was faster than the king riding a horse. The book of first Kings chapter 18 verse 46 says: “Then the hand of the LORD came upon Elijah; and he girded up his loins and ran ahead of Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.”

10. The Hand of God gives the best creativity of life

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” So, it is not difficult for the LORD to recreate your life if you believe in His power.

 

The capacity and power of the Hand of God is not limited to the ten testimonies above and the crucial step for you to take is to give your life to the LORD. If you repent and follow the guidelines of Jesus Christ, then the LORD will never stop doing amazing wonders in your life.

10 Dark Secrets of the World Christians Must Know!

10 Dark Secrets of the World Christians Must Know!

Dark secrets of the world are dangerous desires of the Devil that are carefully presented to Christians in a harmless and attractive style. It is almost impossible to reject the sweet ‘hotdog bread’ offered by the world! Devil’s dark secrets of the world are to distract you from seeking the LORD and to take away the holy commandments of GOD from your heart.

Today’s message will explain the dark secrets of the world embedded in many activities done by the Christians and to open your eyes to know the limit you should not exceed when engaged in such activities. Many points below may sound unbelievable, but it is the truth! 

10 Dark Secrets of the World You Must Take Seriously

1. Dark Secret About Sport

Sport is one of the dark secrets of the world all Christians should watch carefully. The medical science made us to believe that exercise is good for the body, so we are encouraged to do sport to make our body fit and healthy – that’s a good reason!

The Dark Secrets Include:

  1. Act of betting: sport betting made many to be under the bondage of debt. Gambling leads to depression, poverty and suicide.
  2. Immoral Appearances: It is an opportunity to portray a seductive look through the so-called sportswear.
  3. Spirit of Fighting: Devil uses sports to cause hatred and fights among the competitors that lead to conflict.
  4. Encourages Occultism: Many sport professionals are occultic because the Devil lure them to use dark powers to achieve fame and success.
  5. Time Eater: Sport takes away a lot of time such that you might not have time to pray or study the Bible.

There is no sin creating time for yourself to exercise but there is a big danger if you don’t have a limit to sport. So, be careful and don’t get entangled in the dark secrets above.

2. Dark Secrets About Music

Music is the soul of life, and no one will argue the significance of music to your well-being. The Devil also use the power of music as one of the dark secrets of the world to distract Christians from the true tune of worship to the Almighty GOD.

The Dark Secrets Include:

  1. Introducing worldly tune to the church: The acceptance of all style of music and dance-steps by the Church diminish the Christian gospel tune that connects you to the Lord while the ‘rocky rapper noisy’ tunes are the order of the day. Chanting in Gospel music which sounds like speaking in tongues is a powerful demonic medium.
  2. Associating with the worldly musical award Presenters: It is the strategy of the Devil to lure Christian musicians to make friends with worldly musicians and copy the corrupt style of music. Unfortunately, Christians receiving such awards violates the instruction of Jesus Christ.
  3. Commercialization of Gospel Music: Love of money was a powerful weapon introduced to the Christians by the Devil, and it was widely acceptable such that we pay musicians after their ministration. And many instrumentalists charge the church for a fee before playing the musical instruments.

Jesus says in the book of Matthew chapter 6 verse 2: “Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.”

3. Dark Secrets About Christian Movies

Watch out for Christian drama or films because it is one of the dark secrets of the world to bind you with spirit of deceit. It was presented to us as entertainment and a medium of ministration, is that true?

The Dark Secret includes:

  1. It gets Christians involved in act of lies disguised as ‘acting drama or shooting films. I stopped acting in drama when the LORD asked me if I could present a divine message of righteousness through a channel of deceit? Please, Christians must understand this secret that narrating a story or parables like Jesus Christ is completely different from acting drama or films. If the latter was righteous then Jesus Christ would have been the greatest film producer on earth.
  2. The Devil strikes many of the Christian actors with evil realities they claimed to have acted as an illustration to the viewers. Also, the demons are successful, afflicting many viewers with unholy fear. Dark powers are successful hitting the Christians because they knew God does not joke and every action done by man is recorded as a true action.
  3. It’s designed to be Timewaster: Do you noticed that the lessons we claimed to have learnt watching a Christian movie does not stick to our heart. It flies away after a short time. So, it is one of the dark secrets of the world to waste our precious time watching movies. The motive is to stop us from having enough time to communicate directly with the LORD.

Paul stressed the point of ministering the word of God with righteous tools as recorded in second Corinthians chapter 4 verse 1 and 2: “Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we do not lose heart. But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.”

4. Dark Secret about Technology and AI

The advantages of technological advancement and the discovery of artificial intelligence (AI) are not limited to making our work easier and life to be more comfortable. But are you aware of the plans of the dark powers promoting this new computer era?

The Dark secret includes:

  1. Smart Idols: Devil’s secret is to systematically push the Christians to sorcery and idolatry using robots and advanced machine learning. Payers won’t be presented to the LORD again and all enquiries for every wise action to take will be directed at robotic artificial generative intelligence. Christians should be watchful as you embrace this technology!
  2. The Black box: The inventors of this great technology cannot reveal the true secret of how this science works, and it is referred to as the black box. So, you must be sensitive to this technology which will rule the world because the source of its power is from the dark world. Ensure you give your heart to the LORD daily and not to super AI.

5. Dark Secret About Religion

Religion is formed by people to acknowledge the Superpower and to connect to the Supernatural Being. The thousands of religions on earth are deliberate plan of the Devil to cause great confusion on earth. There is no religion in heaven.

Your close relationship with the Almighty Creator through the knowledge of Jesus Christ is all you need. Religion is one of the dark secrets of this world.

The Dark Secret Include:

  1. Creation of church denominations with conflicting doctrines is the plan of the Devil. Many church leaders drew the attention of their members closer to themselves than to the Almighty God – modern idolatry!
  2. Spirit of mammon controlling the church: Building physical structures called church and the introduction of “financial enterprises” made it easy for Satan to rule the church. I felt very sad when I saw many churches in the UK and US and many developed countries under lock or converted to cafeterias because the spirit of mammon destroyed the congregation.
  3. The dark powers orchestrated the religious practices introduced into the body Christ: some doctrines appear spiritually good at the surface but now it has made many youths of this generation not to believe in the Gospel of Jesus Christ anymore because hypocrisy is the order of the day!
  4. Religion is occultic. That is the reason it’s so easy for occultic to attend church services and dictate the success of many events in the church. Majority of churches in our generation are controlled by dark powers presenting many fake miracles and recruiting millions of anti-Christ and false pastors to lead the congregations.

Misconception of the word of God destroyed many hearts because every church member must obey every word preached by their pastors. These are the dark secrets behind the creation of church buildings. The devil would not have won if we all go back to the instructions of Jesus Christ. The church is our heart and not the buildings. 

Paul revealed this secret long ago as recorded in second Corinthians chapter 11 verse 13 and 14: “For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.”                  

6. Dark Secret about Government

The powerful people who are enriched with spiritual powers and great influence on the government are not always seen in public.

The Dark Secret includes:

  1. Steady Legalization of all forms of Abominations to appear nice to the society: People are so happy when the law of the land gives freedom to abortion, lgbt, assisted dying, polyamory, taking away bible from public places etc. 

7. Dark Secret about Worldly Wealth

No one wants to be poor, including me. One of the powerful dark secrets of this world is to lure Christians into shortcuts of making massive wealth through unholy means.

The Dark Secrets include:

  1. Youths are more attracted to the dark web to get rich quickly through electronic frauds.
  2. The big scandal of tithes and offerings misused by pastors to enrich themselves.
  3. Money rituals are presented in a harmless form by asking the victim to join a group or caucus.

8. Dark Secret About Civilization

Civilization is presented to us as actions we do today which are far better than the last century. There is a good part and evil part of civilization that all Christian must watch out for.

The Dark Secrets include:

  1. Dress code across the world tends towards the seduction style and it is generally accepted in the church as well – quite unfortunate!
  2. Disrespectful and abusive slang in our languages.
  3. The good way of life in the past century is replaced with hatred, insecurity, racism in our society. The dark powers rejoice when there is a high rate of murder of war in the world.
  4. Bad culture of the world is replicated in the church under the disguise of “not under the law but under the grace”.

Romans chapter 12 verse 1 and 2 says: “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.”

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”

9. Dark Secret about Formal Education

One of the powerful dark secrets of this world is the formal education sector. We were made to believe that anyone who didn’t attend school won’t be great in life. Is this the truth? Knowledge is good but the dark side of formal education is terrible.

The Dark Secrets include:

  1. Teaching our children the philosophy that denies the existence of the Almighty God.
  2. Teaching our children that lgbt is not bad and encouraging them to become a free thinker.
  3. Many research laboratories are the demonic centre for the creation of destructive weapons that will destroy the world and it’s also the origin of many microorganisms that cause pandemics on earth.
  4. Education at the surface is good but if you are not sensitive about the bondage it will shorten your lifetime success – can you imagine spending 16 to 20 years schooling without been productive?

10. Dark Secret about Industrialization

Industrialization is good for us, but it encompasses the dark secrets of this world which many people choose not to worry about because the benefits seem to be wonderful. Industrialization takes away organic life from us!

The Dark Secrets include:

  1. They use the outputs recovered from countries that legalize abortion as raw materials for creams and many other products.
  2. They produce massive quantities of chemical drinks that cause cancer.
  3. Production of artificial materials to take our heart away from God’s design from us. For instance, artificial hair, cosmetics, genetically modified foods and fruits, laboratory meat etc.      

 

The ten dark secrets of this world mentioned above does not mean to scare you as a Christian but to open your eyes to see and understand many things you cannot hear in the church or in the media. You must be very careful with everything you get involved in and make sure that you get the approval of the Holy Spirit before you do anything.

We are currently at the end time era where the level of apostasy is very high. The secret of the devil is to make life comfortable for us so that we won’t have any cause to communicate to God and that will be the biggest separation leading to eternal destruction.

Devil’s Trap: 10 Escape Routes for the Christians!

Devil’s trap is so diverse that the Christians must be sensitive every moment to identify Satan’s devices. The Devil’s intention every day is to disconnect you from Jehovah, and he wants you to keep falling. Did you notice that the manifestation of the Devil is prominent in this generation?

I am scared with the high rate of disbelief in God’s holiness increasing tremendously. Are you afraid about the stained situation of the church? So do I, but today’s message will guide you on steps to take to sustain your holy relationship with the LORD and get you safe from the devil’s trap.

Why Does the Devil Prioritize Setting Traps for the Christians?

1. Satan is a fallen archangel, and he is so wicked that he wants you to fall as well.

The book of Revelation chapter 12 verse 17 says: “And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.”

2. The Devil knows his eternal abode, and he wants all humanity to join him in the lake of fire.

The book of Revelation, chapter 21, verse 10, says: “The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.”

3. He foolishly thought having many humans on his side signified winning God as a revenge for the heavenly battle he couldn’t win.

The book of Revelation, chapter 20, verse 15, says: “And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.”

12 Devil’s Traps You Must Know and Avoid!

The devil’s trap is three-dimensional targeting the body, soul, and spirit with the intention to separate your cordial relationship with the Almighty God. Watch out for the traps below:

1. When you believe you know too much and nothing new to learn.

2. Giving artificial intelligence more attention than the Holy Spirit.

3. Acquisition of earthly wealth at the expense of helping the poor.

4. Too busy to pray, study the Bible, and meditate daily.

5. Struggling with fearful state of mind without peace.

6. You love to listen to worldly music and movies.

7. Liberal about worldly styles of dressing, make-up, tattoos, and the like.

8. You prefer going to the cinema to sharing the Gospel in the neighborhood.

9. You become comfortable with false doctrines, which are misconceptions of the scriptures.

10. Don’t want to be chastised by the Holy Spirit or by any blunt servant of God.

11. Love to do all things the way you want, not conscious of God’s will.

12. Attempt to trust the evil voice encouraging you to continue active sins because you are in the dispensation of grace!

10 Ways to Escape the Devil’s Trap

1. Do not take the grace of God for granted.

2. Identify the ‘unavoidable’ distractions of the devil in our modern generation.

3. The Holy Spirit should be your best companion and not ‘artificial intelligence’ technology.

4. Always consider the Will of God before taking any decision.

5. Your state of mind must be active with scriptural quotes of God’s Word.

6. Engage with people who want to hear the undiluted truth of the Gospel.

7. You won’t fall into the devil’s trap if you constantly communicate with the LORD every day and night.

8. Don’t love the things of this world.

9. Please stay away from movies or visions that do not glorify God because they are the devil’s trap to capture your mind.

10. Praising God with your heart always and listening to genuine gospel songs secures you from falling into the devil’s deceit.

Anyone can fall into the devil’s trap except Christians who go through spiritual, physical, and mental discipline. You will always escape the deceits of the devil through the power of the salvation of Jesus Christ and your obedience to the instructions of the Almighty YHWH. Stay firm in the LORD!

Deathbed Conversion: The Reality of Accepting Jesus Christ as Savior!

Posted by Aug 25, 2024 Gospel Evangelism, Holy Word Leave a Comment
Deathbed Conversion: The Reality of Accepting Jesus Christ as Savior!

Deathbed conversion is a terminology invented by the early Catholics and Anglicans to describe the repentance of someone who has few moments to give up the ghost. Invitation of priests or pastors for such ministration is not usually done without a fat envelope for the minister.

The commercialization of this act made deathbed conversion beliefs acceptable in the Christian community. But the truth is that accepting the doctrine of a deathbed conversion can never make any soul enter the kingdom of God. Today’s message will give a scriptural explanation about the reality of accepting Jesus Christ as your Savior.

The Misconception of Scripture to justify Deathbed Conversion

It is not new that the false teachers always create misconceptions of Bible verses to justify their deceitful doctrines. The teaching about deathbed conversion was only justified by the story of the thief beside Jesus Christ on the cross. The false teachers lied that he repented from his sins and made confession to Jesus Christ, which led to his acceptance into heaven.

Luke chapter 23 verse 39 to 43 says:

“Then one of the criminals who were hanged blasphemed Him, saying, “If You are the Christ, save yourself and us.””

“But the other, answering, rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?””

“And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.”

“Then he said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.””

“And Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.””

1. Verse 39 was the statement of the first thief crucified beside Jesus Christ. His statement reveals his usual arrogant way of getting things he wants from anyone. He desperately wants freedom but doesn’t believe in Jesus as the Messiah. Jesus Christ didn’t respond to him because He had suffered enough mockery for that day.

2. Verse 40 and 41 are the expressions of the second thief on the cross who acknowledged that Jesus Christ was not a criminal.

3. Verse 42 revealed that the second thief was also desperate, but his request was not arrogant like the first thief. He didn’t confess his sins but asked Jesus for an uncommon favor.

4. Jesus’ authoritative response to the second thief was shocking, unexpected, and truly controversial!

5. Jesus’ declaration to the second thief was personal and specific, and Jesus didn’t refer to it as a Christian doctrine.

6. The second thief never confessed his sins on the cross and never went through repentance, but he desperately asked for an uncommon favor, which was granted.

7. That the second thief will be with Jesus in Paradise was a specific conversation to him only and was never a message to be conveyed to the world to encourage deathbed conversion.

Biblical Perspective: Is Deathbed Conversion Realistic?

Don’t fall into the deceit of the devil by postponing your spiritual seriousness with the LORD to your old age or to a few minutes after your passing away!

The following biblical scriptures do not support the theological debate of deathbed conversion:

1. Matthew chapter 7 verse 21 to 23, in which Jesus states, “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.”

This verse underscores the necessity of genuine, consistent faith and suggests that mere verbal acknowledgment of Christ in one’s final moments may not be sufficient.

2. Hebrews chapter 6 verses 4 to 6, which speaks to the gravity and responsibilities of true faith. According to these verses, “It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, and who have fallen away, to be brought back to repentance.”

This perspective underscores the difficulty of reconciling a sudden, deathbed conversion with the depth of ongoing spiritual commitment that characterizes genuine faith.

3. Luke chapter 13, verses 24 to 27, provides further insights. Here, Jesus warns, “Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able.

“When once the Master of the house has risen up and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open for us,’ and He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know you, where you are from,’ “then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets.’

“But He will say, ‘I tell you I do not know you, where you are from. Depart from Me, all you workers of iniquity.’””

This parable emphasizes the significant effort required for salvation and the inherent insincerity of last-minute pleas when they lack a lifelong commitment to faith.

Salvation is not merely an endpoint but a transformative journey that involves repentance, renewal, and an ongoing relationship with the Holy Spirit.

The juxtaposition of a hurried, deathbed conversion against the biblical call for genuine faith and spiritual relationship questions the authenticity and acceptability of such an eleventh-hour decision.

This subject matter is like the false teaching of “eternal security,” in which the false teachers tell you to just accept Jesus Christ as your savior and you will gain heaven despite any form of lifestyle you persist to live.

Hmm! Don’t be confused. It is not a matter of contradiction, but it is simply the manifestation of unquestionable authority by Jesus Christ, so never copy the act of the favored thief because it will blow you up.

“Do not be deceived; God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.” (Galatians 6:7-8)

This Bible verse encourages the act of praying with a grateful heart, fostering a sense of tranquility that surpasses human comprehension to strengthen the sick.

Bible Verses for Comfort and Peace

In times of illness, finding comfort and peace can significantly impact one’s emotional and spiritual well-being that can strengthen the sick.

12. Second Corinthians chapter 1 verse 3 and 4: “Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.”

13. Matthew chapter 11 verse 28 to 30: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

This invitation from Jesus Christ emphasizes the relief and rest that can be found in Him. It encourages those who are struggling to seek His gentle guidance and find respite from their burdens.

Building a Community of Faith

The Bible encourages Christians to come together in faith, sharing each other’s burdens and uplifting one another through collective prayer.

16. Galatians chapter 6 verse 2: “Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way, you will fulfill the law of Christ.”

17. Matthew chapter 18 verse 20: “For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”

This message of Jesus Christ highlights the power of collective prayer and the divine presence that it invokes. When believers join together to pray for the sick, they not only provide emotional and spiritual support but also create an environment where faith can flourish, and strengthen the sick.

Reconciliation with the LORD

You will have testimony of the healing that comes from confession and forgiveness, both the physical and spiritual relief when you complete the reconciliation with the LORD. 

18. Psalm 32 verse 3 to 5: “When I kept silent, my bones grew old through my groaning all day long. For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me; my vitality was turned into the drought of summer. I acknowledged my sin to You, and my iniquity I have not hidden. I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD,” And You forgave the iniquity of my sin.”

19. Luke chapter 5 verse 19 and 20: “And when they could not find how they might bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the housetop and let him down with his bed through the tiling into the midst before Jesus. When He saw their faith, He said to him, “Man, your sins are forgiven you.”

Healing Covenant that never Breaks

20. Revelation chapter 21 verse 4: “And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”

 

I encourage you to persistently seek God’s guidance and comfort through prayer and scripture. Whether facing physical ailments, emotional distress, or spiritual challenges, turning to God’s word can strengthen the sick and provide encouragement needed to endure and overcome. Remember, you are not alone in your journey; the community of faith stands with you, united in the shared experience of seeking divine healing.

The Almighty LORD will heal you perfectly and you will share great testimonies in Jesus’ name – Amen.
