00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily. 2 December 2015. Titled Optimist, pessimist or Christian Christian is Christian optimist, pessimist or Christian.

00:17 It might have very well been optimist, pessimist or Christimist. Christimist. Now present this as.

00:26 Let’s start today again. As I said, today starts from last night. Before going to sleep in the bed, you have examined things.

00:33 You have talked to your heart. You have talked to Jesus Christ. You have cast all your cares upon him.

00:38 You have commanded every wicked unclean spirit to get out in the name of Jesus Christ. Sweet sleep of the righteous thinking of whether you did anything wrong, asking Jesus Christ of forgiveness and your sins being washed away. You know how powerful
is that? You know how loving God is.

00:56 Can you imagine we do wrong? And then Lord Jesus, I’m sorry, Lord Jesus, I don’t want to do this again. And you change your mind of your thinking. The way you’re thinking is changed in the bed because you say talk to your heart.

01:08 And of course talk to your heart means you’re thinking things. Repentance is what changing the way we think first. First start of repentance is changing the way we think from worldly thinking to or personal thinking to the way Jesus thinks that
Jesus wants us to think, brothers and sisters, that is necessary.

01:27 And then today you plant yourself to settle with people whatever you had to settle yesterday. You didn’t ask forgiveness, say sorry, say I am by meaning. Because God hates hypocrites, by the way.

01:37 God hates hypocrites, but we better understand this. So he doesn’t want guile and deception. He doesn’t want us to say something and have something else in our heart.

01:50 He hates this. He is the truth. Jesus Christ is the truth.

01:53 I am the way, the truth and life. So if we are in the truth, we will speak the truth. And we think even the truth.

02:02 When we think of the world, we are not thinking in the truth. We are thinking as in the world. We think in the truth.

02:07 We speak the truth. And then now with love. Truth with love.

02:15 Sincere love from a pure heart. Brothers and sisters, today we’ll start again. Yesterday we dealt with the optimist, pessimist.

02:22 Can a Christian be an optimist or a pessimist? Yesterday it was determined by God’s mercy that a Christian cannot be an optimist or pessimist. But a Christian is a Christian. So for want of a better word, I simply use the word Christimist.

02:38 Brothers and sisters, there are two scriptures that Today we look at, we looked at several scriptures yesterday. We look at the two scriptures today, two of them from yesterday, 2nd Corinthians 4, 4. Among them, the God of this world, Satan, has
blinded the minds of the unbelieving to prevent them from seeing the illuminating light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

02:59 Satan has blinded the eyes. The God of this world is Satan. This factor is critical.

03:05 This information is absolutely pivotal to us being able to live, to live well in Christ. Now then, Proverbs 3, 5, 6 says, Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not rely on your own insight or on your own understanding. Now let’s take some
examples.

03:25 Now, we must remember, all of us who are listening to this, there are people here who are listening from various backgrounds, various walks of life, various cultures. So the cultural English in different cultures will mean different things. So,
brothers and sisters, if you are in some culture that is different from where I am coming from and the English doesn’t make quite some sense to you, Please contact the graceoflife.com and somebody will assist you.

03:53 It may even be me, depending, who’s been taking turns to man the site. Brothers and sisters, all of us understand that. So English is itself a language that can be misunderstood because of the various cultures and our own backgrounds.

04:13 Now, the most important thing is this. Of course, a Christian cannot be a pessimist. Cannot, cannot be a pessimist.

04:20 Because actually Christian has hope. Because we have not even just hope. We have eternal hope.

04:25 We have eternal life. And to do that, our Lord and Master, who is not ashamed to call us brother, went to the cross to suffer and die and rise again. He had to do that.

04:37 He had to come here, left the riches of heaven, gave everything up, walked here as a man, suffered as a man, worse than all men, suffered for everybody else’s sin, took everybody’s sin on the cross when he was on the cross, took everybody’s curses
who came and landed on him on the cross, on all the curses, all the anguish, the sorrow, the shame, everything he collected and then he died on the cross, rose again, buried and rose again. And he says now he give us power. That is why any of us who
have gone through serious damage in life or shame or whatever, there’s no more shame.

05:12 That is why I have no more shame on the sins that I did. Either be shameful or now no more. Therefore I’m able to.

05:28 Jesus told me to put it in the website. I put my sins there. Reason is, the shame has been given to Christ I don’t feel shame now because I’ve been forgiven by Jesus Christ and in addition my wife has forgiven me, others have forgiven me.

05:45 I’ve asked forgiveness from the people, whoever I could contact and ask forgiveness from them. Same time brothers and sisters, we live a different life. We live an open life.

06:00 The truth is I did all that but I’m not telling all that because I have not been forgiven. I feel shame. I just talk about it to impress people.

06:11 No, I do that as God, as Jesus Christ has led me to do that, to tell everybody with those people who are suffering like that have an opening, have an escape route in Christ. They have a serious escape route because it’s the only escape route
actually through Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Now when we begin to tell the sins not to form and also to Jesus has forgiven me and God says he doesn’t remember our sins anymore, like east to the west, he doesn’t remember it anymore.

06:42 He just pushes aside because he washed us and covered us with his own blood. He covered me with his own precious blood. So he doesn’t remember sins.

06:49 But when he told me to put it there, it’s not that because he wants to remember. He’s telling me to remember so that I don’t go and do this rubbish. I don’t go back.

06:57 So when I’m going there, near there, I run away. 2 I know already, trouble is coming. 2 Next thing is for people to know there is a forgiving God and they see my life now, they know I’m free, I’m free.

07:14 That means they know I’m truly forgiven. I’m not carrying baggages from before. The baggage was there when I came to the Lord but step by step all leave, leave, leave, leave, get out in Jesus name and no more, no more looking back.

07:28 And therefore when they put their hand to the plough, Jesus says anyone who looks back is not worthy of him. Thank Jesus Christ. There were times when my soul was drawn, my heart and mind were drawn, but my spirit stood still by the mercy of Jesus
Christ and followed Jesus Christ.

07:45 So the heart and mind were brought to subjection and therefore I didn’t turn back. But thank Jesus now it’s only his mercy. Now this optimist and Christian or Christimists, we have to give some examples so that people understand because people
sometimes have difficulty thinking of it.

08:02 Now look, there’s another segment I’ve recorded. By God’s mercy to say Jesus mercy to say self confidence or God confident. Self confident or God confident, please look for this and listen to that because he is critical.

08:17 The world will tell us we are optimist. Now let’s take some example. Let us say something serious has happened and a person whose heart is broken.

08:28 Broken, let us say the person has suffered a death in the family, a loved one, and is crushed and broken and is going towards anguish and sorrow. Anguish and sorrow is happening now. When this anguish and sorrow is happening, can you imagine what
the world will tell you? It’s okay.

08:48 Tomorrow will be all right. You will. Soon you’ll be passing this, you’ll go through this.

08:54 You live through this and eventually the pain will go away over time. Time heals. They’ll tell you time heals.

09:02 This is. Time doesn’t heal. Time doesn’t do anything.

09:07 Time just moves. Tide and time based on no man, as you say, wait for no man. So this is what the world can tell you.

09:15 That way. Even a Christian who do not know Mark 16, where the power is given to you to cast out evil spirits, and you do not know how to pray for these people or teach them. You are actually doing a serious error here.

09:31 Your counsel is no different from the world who will tell you, don’t worry, brother, or don’t you know? I know you’re sad. You’re brokenhearted. Today only time will heal.

09:42 Hang in there, brother. You know it will be all right tomorrow. Tomorrow will be better.

09:48 Day by day will be better. Because they discount the player. The third player is Satan.

09:56 That Satan came to steal, kill and destroy. And they discount the other factor. Our heart and mind is a fallen nature.

10:03 Our hearts are so wicked, treacherously wicked. Our Father God says, who can know it? The question is, who can know it? Even I won’t know it. But God knows, of course.

10:13 But he said you won’t know it. So what do you do? You cast out the spirit of anguish and sorrow. Cast out the spirit of anguish and sorrow.

10:21 Get out in the name of Jesus Christ and make them do the breath of God if they want. By the way, don’t force these things. They won’t work if they want, then they do the breath of God and they will be released.

10:33 That doesn’t mean that Satan will try to attack again. The spirit of anguish and sorrow will try and attack again. Now he has to.

10:40 Now he or she has to. Now pray and do the breath of God again. And maybe a brother or sister has to be with him.

10:45 Two by two. Keep company. Now can you imagine? An optimist can’t solve this.

10:50 Only a Christian is a Christian with the power of Jesus Christ. Not just any Christian who says he’s a Christian? A Christian is. If you believe this sign will follow you cast out evil spirits in my name.

11:02 How simpler than that can it get? Those who believe, spread the gospel, teach the gospel, teach the good news, and then those who believe this sign will follow. They will cast out evil spirits in my name. How much simpler can it be said? But people
don’t know or does Cheshire don’t teach.

11:22 The Cheshire don’t teach. Or they will say only come to the pastor or a group of elders to do. Run from them.

11:29 Run from them, teacher, because they’re keeping the elders and only a group of people can do it. They say if you cast out, you know the devil can attack you and all that. The devil runs in the name of Jesus Christ.

11:39 But they will put frightened. They tried to do that to me, by the way. They tried to say, no, no, I was already casting out evil spirit because that was how I released.

11:47 And that’s the only thing I know from the start. Cast out and go in Jesus name. And I was putting small advertisements in that.

11:53 A paper called Millennial here demonic attacks. Jesus healed me. Jesus will heal you or something.

11:59 And then I was going and praying paper under the tree and all very quickly, within a few weeks after I was born again. Then they tried to send a signal. The pastor said his name, Elder coming and telling me that, you know, he shouldn’t do all this.

12:12 He’s concerned about you. He’s concerned for you and all lies. If you believe these signs will follow later.

12:18 Only I knew these are lies. They are trying to control you. They are trying to keep a small group of you.

12:24 Come to the small group so they control you. Jesus wants. You are his child.

12:27 You are his child. You are a servant of the Most High God. Immediately you are a disciple.

12:32 You want to be disciplined by Christ, you start doing this. If you don’t do this, please understand the devil will take advantage and dupe you, con you, delude you, deceive you. Spirit of deception can come.

12:46 Spirit of delusion can come. Now let’s take another thing. Let’s say somebody has gone through a divorce.

12:52 Terrible divorce, brokenhearted. And then they came to Christ. The only thing you can do first is give them peace.

12:58 How to give them peace? Through the breath of God. Cast out the spirit of fear and confusion and longing for the past. Brokenhearted.

13:07 Spirit of brokenheartedness, get out in Jesus name, Spirit of love from Jesus to be whole again in the name of Jesus Christ. You can do all that. Not just optimistic nonsense, this optimistic nonsense.

13:19 Coming from the world is actually taking us away from Christ. Do not want to let you see the truth and the power of Jesus Christ for your life. Doesn’t want you to see that.

13:29 The fact it’s all right, it’s all right. So there are people who spend thousands. I know a brother who is a pastor now.

13:36 When it happened to him years ago, he told me later he went and bought books so costly hundreds of dollars or even thousands of dollars or number of books and started reading this going counseling, this and their own work. Christian counseling does
not work if you do not cast out the evil spirit. So even a Christian psychologist says he is a psychologist and does not use the power of Jesus Christ from Mark 16.

13:57 It is not going to work and is actually doing damage. Brothers and sisters, if you are a Christian psychologist here, please be warned. You are not understanding the full picture.

14:06 You are not taking into consideration that Satan is. Has blinded the minds of the unbelieving and is the ruler of the world. And he is the one sending all his demonic beings and fallen angels to do all this to destroy souls.

14:22 So if you are a Christian psychologist or you went to a Christian psychologist and they are just saying to you similarly from the world way without using the power of Jesus Christ to overcome and you are just trying to be an optimist and tomorrow
you will be fine. Well, it will not be fine now. Number of young people are committing suicide after failing exams in places like China and Hong Kong and all that and even in all nations because they were hoping for a place in the university.

14:51 And it doesn’t happen because they missed out one or two points and they felt they’re useless. And then they don’t know what to do because their heart set on this. And then the communists reside.

15:01 Spirit of suicide may cast out and spirit of despair they cast out in the name of Jesus Christ. All these are cast out. And I release in the name of Jesus Christ.

15:09 Love and hope in Christ. And there’s a great life in Christ. I release it in the name of Jesus Christ.

15:15 And therefore then they change. You have to use this just by playing optimist Christian psychology. Playing psychology is not going to cut it.

15:24 Because there are spiritual forces that are killing and destroying souls. Brothers and sisters, that is why the world way of teaching. There’s one called secret.

15:32 You know the secret secret, you just think ting ting and it happen for you lie of the devil because they trying to take you away from Christ. Christ’s confidence, your optimism, your hope is in Christ. The power of Christ.

15:49 That’s Why you want to go on power. Think, think, think and it’ll be all right. You’re going to do business.

15:54 Put yourself and think about it. Think about it in hope and oh, you believe in the good thing, believing your optimism. Everything is fine.

16:02 It’s a lie of the devil taking you away from Christ. Who is the source of power? Who’s the actual solution? Whose actual solution is Christ. But the so called optimistic nonsense teaching in the world is actually worldly.

16:17 Guess who started it if it’s worldly? Satan. Who is the ruler of the world? Satan. Who? The God of this world? Satan.

16:25 And that’s why sometimes I think of Santa Claus coming as Santa Claus. S a n T a actually take S a T a n and put the word Take the n out from the last and put it on the third sector. Sa nta Satan becomes Santa.

16:39 Now brothers and sisters, the world will tell you cut a tree and put it into your house. I used to do all this, so that’s why I used to laugh after that. Brother and sister, today Christ confident, not optimist.

16:53 Your hope is in Christ. In Jesus name I pray. Drill it deep into you, brothers and sisters.

16:59 Amen.
