00:00The church...

00:18Okay.

00:19Okay.

00:20Okay.

00:21Okay.

00:22Okay.

00:23Okay.

00:24Okay.

00:25Okay.

00:26Okay.

00:27Let me address myself to both the Filipino people and the body of Christ.

00:33So, of course, nagseselebrate po tayo ng anniversary ng JL.

00:37And if I may dare say, countdown na rin to sa 50th anniversary, ilan taon na lang, no?

00:43And last year, napakarami po sa mga ginagamit ng Panginoon,

00:49whether mas bata or mas veterano, nagsabing may padating na revival.

00:54Pag may revival po, may disruption.

00:57Hindi pwede magkaroon ng revival na hindi mo dini-disrupt yung corruption.

01:02Hindi mo dini-disrupt yung kasamaan.

01:04Hindi mo dini-disrupt yung immorality.

01:06Eh, kaya nga nagkaka-revival, diba?

01:08Nagkaka-pinumulat sa atin kung anong mali.

01:12Having said that, sino bang unang target?

01:14Kung sino po yung army na gusto ng pagbabago, the army of the living God, no?

01:20So, to our kababayans, if we want to build our nation, diba?

01:25We have to know the true enemy.

01:27And may principalities, may spirits, may authorities,

01:30authorities ng corruption, authorities ng poverty,

01:35ng immorality na gustong guluhin yung ating bansa at hindi magbago.

01:39Ang JL po ay isa sa pinakamalaking church,

01:43na miyembro din ng body of Christ.

01:45So, ang aking po message, diba sabi po ni Dr. Miles Monroe,

01:49whatever we celebrate, we elevate.

01:51So, whether tayo ay nasa season ng mourning,

01:54nasa season tayo ng pagtatanim,

01:56nasa season tayo ng pagluluksa,

01:58nasa season tayo ng pagbabago,

02:00we elevate eh.

02:02So, kaya tayo nagsa-celebrate,

02:03dahil nga in 47 years, ginamit tayo ng Panginoon.

02:06So, dapat lalo tayong gamitin this year,

02:09lalo tayong gamitin sa susunod na celebration.

02:12So, from the bottom of our heart,

02:14kami nagpapasalamat sa Diyos sa paggamit niya

02:17sa mga miyembro at mga leaders,

02:20youth leaders, leaders ng women,

02:22leaders ng iba't-ibang sektor,

02:24church leaders ng Jesus is Lord Worldwide Church.

02:28God bless you, mga kapatid.

02:30What important is yung pagpunta niyo po rin

02:32sa anniversary ng JL and also yung support mo

02:35kay Sen. Joe?

02:36Well, that's a good question

02:37kasi sa isang banda,

02:39ang bawat isa sa atin ay irrelevant naman eh.

02:42Ang bawat isa sa atin ay parang butil ng buhangin.

02:46But in a sense, the Lord uses people at my purpose, di ba?

02:51So, may mga times na ang mga kaibigan, kapatid,

02:56supporters ng JL ang nandito at hindi.

02:58Pero alam po natin naman kasi na pag may persecution,

03:03pag may persecution, ano,

03:05dun nahihiwalay yung ano eh,

03:07yung sinong tunay na kapatid at tunay na kaibigan.

03:10So, of course, not everyone can be here physically.

03:13But I'm talking about people who are praying for Brother Joel,

03:17who are listening muna.

03:19But as I said kanina,

03:20the attacks kasi go beyond Brother Joel eh.

03:23Di ba?

03:24Kung baga kinakasangkapan o ginagamit si Joel sa nangyayari,

03:27para i-attack din yung church, no?

03:31So, ganun din po.

03:32Di ba?

03:33Pag may nagkamali na isang pastor sa buong Pilipinas,

03:37sasabihin, ganyan ang mga evangelical.

03:39Di ba?

03:40So, we also bind together.

03:42Pag may mali tayo na kapatid,

03:44meron proseso ang Panginoon.

03:46Pero kung ang kapatid ay falsely accused,

03:49meron din proseso.

03:50Di ba?

03:51So, mahaba pa to.

03:53Mahaba pa to.

03:54Marami pang mangyayari.

03:55But what do we know?

03:56God already destined the Philippines to be His nation.

04:01So, ang question lang,

04:02madidelay ba to?

04:03Will we cross the desert to be in Israel in 7 or 10 days?

04:07Or will it take 40 years?

04:09Ang makakasagot nun,

04:11ang body of Christ.

04:12Kasi ang Panginoon,

04:13handa na tayo itawid sa desert into Israel.

04:16So, ang destiny ng ating Panginoon para sa bansa,

04:20nandiyan na.

04:21Choice natin po kung next generation na.

04:24So, nakita ko yung apo ni Mayor John John,

04:27at sabi ko,

04:28sana naman,

04:29yung inasam-asam natin na,

04:31mas safe maglakad sa kalye kaso sa Singapore.

04:35Na mas may character kabaitan

04:38ng Japanese nation,

04:40makita natin.

04:41Of course, I'm hoping sa generation at makita ng sarili kong mata.

04:43Diba?

04:44But when you see the children,

04:47is this a vicious cycle that will never end?

04:50Or handa na ba ang mga pinili ng Panginoon na tumayo?

04:54And I'm saying, no?

04:56Lahat tayo butil ng buhangin.

04:58I mean,

04:59but when we go together and come together as the children of Christ,

05:02you know,

05:03mountains are moved by faith.

05:05So...

05:35So...

05:36So...

05:37So...

05:38So...

05:39So...

05:40So...
