(upbeat music) Last week I've been praying about this so, okay, so, what message do you have for this Sunday? By Tuesday, I already have a word. So, meeting, we'll see what God will say. Dr. John, what are you praying for this Sunday? And I already have. Okay, so, I'm already ready. I'm excited. And then early this morning, when I was finalizing everything, I started to write a title, I started to write a definite direction. But the text has always been there. And when I was here, And there are videos that are going out and being spread by a lot of people, a lot of views already has been done and a lot of people already saw it. Prophecies of what is about to happen now. Now, am I worried about those prophecies? Not really. Not really, because I believe at the end of the day, I got this in control. Okay? Amen. Okay, so I have entitled this message this. How to stay calm when everything falls apart? Okay, so when everything is crumbling down and so what do you realize now when really be cool? So what are you going to do when everything falls apart? Physically and metaphorically, okay? So what do you do? How do you stay calm? And when I say calm, I'm not talking about being apathetic or being silent, as if you have removed yourself in a situation where I don't know, I don't know, I just don't know how to do that. Your calm, there is a assurance. You may be in the midst of this falling apart and yet there is peace. There is assurance that God can do. We'll be looking at three sermons, one prophet, two kings, and one large army. Okay, by the time that we go to dinner time, (laughing) Okay, so All testament story puto. Okay, this happened during the time of King Joram, sometimes called King Joram, King Joram from Israel, okay. So divided the kingdom, Okay, now, King Ahab is a wicked king, okay. Okay, Now, on the other hand, Okay, All right, Israel and Syria, even from the time of Old Testament, can you imagine that? Now, in some translation, some Bible, instead of Syria, Okay, so, Syria, interestingly, this is not the first time that we are talking about Syria, okay, so Dahil, there is a famous commander from the Syrian kingdom, and I'm talking about Neiman, Okay, good. So, Second king, chapter five verse one, Neiman, commander of the army of the king of Syria, was a great man, with his master in high favor, because by him, the Lord had given victory to Syria, he was a mighty man of valor, but he was a leper. So, So, a very respected, and look at this, and this is when I was reading this, because by him, the Lord had given victory to Syria. Okay, so, imagine that, why would God bless with victory the enemy of Israel? No, so what is God teaching us right off the back? So, sometimes God uses difficult situations to teach us a lesson. Sometimes, the learning, the year is a government, the year is a political arena, sometimes God would use those difficult situations to teach us something very important. So, important, otherwise, we would come out worried about so many things. Okay, me, so, and man made problems. Okay, so, now, the Syrians, on one of their raids, had carried off a little girl from the land of Israel and she worked in the service of Nehman's wife. So, a little girl was taken captive and she became a slave. So, can you imagine a batang bataka, but doesn't tell us but she was carried off. now, can you imagine that? So, a situation, sometimes we feel like that. so, sometimes, we feel like we are victims. And look at this. It's an innocent little girl, and yet she's in the midst of a problem. But guess what? Okay, and that's actually what happened later on. But the point is, even a little girl, as innocent and a victim, as she was, God was able to use her. So, on the point, no one is too young to be used by God. And no one is too new in faith to understand him. Okay, good. Okay. (laughing) So, Okay, okay. If you feel like, This little girl, I mean, as far as experience is concerned, and the wars and disputes about kingdoms and kings. One thing she knows that there is a real God who can do miracles and that is more than enough to help see Neiman. So, imagine this. See, Neiman went back to Syria, a man healed. King Ben Haddad knows about this that there is a real God present in Israel. So, this is the background, that's all. So, it's not as if, And yet despite of that knowledge, So, chapter six, starting verse eight. Second Kings. Once, when the king of Syria was warring against Israel, He took counsel with his servant saying, "At such a church, I, a place shall be my camp." Okay, That's what he's basically saying. Verse nine, "But the man of God sent war to the king of Israel, "we were that you do not pass this place "for the Syrians are going down there." Okay, so, Okay, So, basically, And the king of Israel sent to the place about which the man of God told him. Thus, he used to warn him so that he saved himself there more than once or twice. So, every time that he planned this Syrians against Israel, Okay, And then, next time, And then, And this happened more than twice, more than once more than twice. And then, And then, Okay, so, But the point is, He would be warned, and every time that he would be warned, he will be saved. So, So, there is a correlation between warning and salvation. Now, here's the question, So, the warning, So, all you need to do now is take heat of the warning so that you will always stay safe. Okay, And I hope you get that. At least, that's a good starting point. Okay, First of the day, you could start, okay, Okay, as long as we take heat of God's warnings, we will remain safe. The reason why, So, take heat of God's warning, and you will remain safe, okay? So, and the mind of the King of Syria was greatly troubled because of this thing. and he called his servants and said to them, "Will you not show me who of us is for the King of Israel?" and one of his servants, so that's it. One of his servants said, "None my Lord, O King, but Elisha the Prophet who is in Israel tells the King of Israel the words that you speak in your bedroom." Now, here's the question. Listen, your information about the spy, he didn't go to army. He didn't go to any of the commanders or the officers, or official officers, in army, he didn't go to army, go to the army, or the servant to the King. But the wisdom that he had remained here and it didn't change his life, okay? Again, it's a warning. We cannot hide anything from God. Even if you are a man, you can say this, "God can fully protect us." Full of protection in the Lord. Even if you are a man, you can also plan your life in the name of God. The Lord is the Lord of God on your side. The Lord is the Lord of the whole world, the Lord of the world. When you are born, you will see the Lord is the Lord of the Philippines. Even if you are a man, you will see the Lord of the whole world. And he said go and see where he is. That I may send and seize him. It was told him because he is in Doctan. So the place of danger for Joseph has become a place of destiny. So the place of danger has become a place of deliverance. So the place of deliverance is the place of deliverance.
