The Last Trumpet

Mat 24:14;29-31
1 Cor 15:50-52
1st Trumpet was sounded 3.5k years ago
Let 25:8-10
By Moses who passed it to Joseph
A cry of freedom & celebration - burden no other
Blown from town to town, city to city, nation
The people in refuge can now return to their own homes
In the name of the Lord, all is set free
Joseph then passed it to Samuel
Who in turn passed it to young David
David was young & he will also sound the trumpet
Then came Elijah: a prophet like no other
His disciple – Elisha: he honor his mentor a great deal; double miracles!
Jo 2:15
Joel is the next in line
He passed it to the angels who then passed it to Jesus
Jesus was like a trumpet Himself!
He was the end of the atonement. A celebration of freedom that has come to mankind
Lk 4:18
Jesus can bring things back to life
Rom 1:110
Jesus passed it to Peter
Then Paul, then John
Martin Luther also picked up the trumpet
“The just shall live by faith”
John Wesley = Methodist church
Eph 5
Then there are others…
Now it is in our hands. We’re to reach out to the souls in our hands.
Recall the story of how Christianity was stopped when Marco Polo forget to send missionary after promising Genghis Khan that he will. Or the 2 missionary who felt that the route to Genghis Khan's kingdom is too hard for them.
Or how Gandhi was also stopped by the rich christians of his times to come to know God.
Have we also become too busy to reach out to the souls around us?
Do you have the heart of God? His heart is with man. He is looking for the 1 person who will make the difference.
Don't be like Marco Polo or the pastor who prevented Gandhi from coming to know God.
Don't go down in history as the church that got too busy for God's business.

The Light of Jesus

Jh 1:4-5
1. Light gives life
2. Light gives vision
God can make a somebody out of a nobody
In a dream, all things are possible
The greatest prison is your mind
It can limit you without you even knowing it
"Imagination is more important than knowledge" - Albert Einstein
3. Light dispels darkness
Any issues you need to deal with it?Anything that you need God’s intervention today?

Broken to God

Jud 6:5-6; 11-12;14-16;32
Gideon was running away from his responsibility
God has a higher opinion of us than we have of ourselves
Courage is not the absence of fear
To obey is better than sacrifice
Step out my own needs
Jerubbaal = let Baal contend with him
There will always be someone better than you but God chose you
Jud 7:5;19-20
"300" is the number of those "who walked with God"
We need to be broken to God totally

Don't overemphasized on your talents

Bring Forth Your Jabbok River

Gen 32:22-32
Jacob : supplanter, swindler, trickster, schemer,
1 Cor 15:33
We need to have visions before God can do anything for us.
Rebakah schemes for Jacob but nevertheless got to see him again
Esua married pagan women & upset Issac
Jacob will suffered all his life because of his schemes
But! God loves him
Jacob was weary as he has to fight for every single blessings in his life Bu
Jabbok - flowing, pouring river
Dive into the presence of God
Jh 7:37-34
We need to choose to come to the presence of the Holy Spirit
River Rhine
Danube River
We need to drink from the river of God
Gen 33:24
Don't let go, press in!
Jocab learn abt letting his God to fignt for him
Israel : a prince with God
