IS YOUR NAME WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF THE LIVING?

Minister Lisa Kane

2022年10月2日

Lisa Kane begins with John 1:1–5, showing Jesus as the Word and the Light that overcomes darkness, and ties this to Genesis 1:1–5, where God spoke light into existence. She highlights Jesus as the physical embodiment of the Word—spoken, written, and living—through whom creation, redemption, and revelation flow.

The message then journeys through biblical references to many “books” mentioned in Scripture: the Book of Generations, Book of the Covenant, Book of the Law, Book of Jasher, Book of the Acts of Solomon, Chronicles of the Kings, and others. These writings reveal how God ensured His covenants and commands would be preserved for future generations, combining the power of both the spoken and written word.

Building on this, Lisa explains that God also keeps personal records: a book written about each person (Psalm 56:8; Psalm 139:16). Every life, every choice, and every moment is documented by God. Most importantly, she stresses the eternal significance of the Book of the Living (Book of Life) (Psalm 69:28; Philippians 4:3; Revelation 3:5; Revelation 20:15). Those whose names are written remain in fellowship with Christ, while those not found are condemned.

The message challenges listeners to repentance and faith in Jesus, reminding them that God records not only their sins but also their salvation when they confess Christ as Lord (Romans 10:9). Through Christ’s blood, believers’ names are permanently secured in the Book of Life, and they are called to walk as His representatives—lights in a dark world.

The teaching concludes with an urgent call: Is your name found in the Book of the Living? Through repentance, obedience, and faith in Jesus Christ, every believer can be confident of their salvation and live as a testimony of God’s light and truth.

Objective:

The objective of this message is to help believers understand the significance of the Book of the Living (Book of Life) as revealed throughout Scripture. It emphasizes Jesus Christ as the Living Word and Light of the world, showing how God has always communicated through the spoken and written word, recording covenants, genealogies, laws, and individual lives. The teaching calls listeners to examine their salvation, repent, and ensure their names are written in the Book of Life through faith in Jesus Christ.

Inspired Teaching - Written and/or Transcribed from Video Above:

Hello and welcome to the House of Faith Ministries. I'm Lisa Kaine. I'm recording this on Sunday, October 2nd, 2022. And this message is called Is Your Name Found in the Book of the Living? Amen. Let's open up in a word of prayer. Father God, we bless this message and we thank you for your blessing and anointing on it. We thank you for teaching us who your son is, our foundation, our strength, the living word of God. And we thank you, Father God, for all that you're doing and all the things that you're teaching us. We receive, we believe, we apply, and we're walking in your word. Thank you, Father God, in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. Let's go to our opening scripture here. John 1, we're going to read verses 1-5. In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God. And the word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him and without him nothing was made that was made. In him was life and the life was the light of men and the light shines in the darkness and the darkness did not comprehend it. King James version says did not overtake it. So um in other words the light is stronger than the dark. The light penetrates and the darkness cannot defeat it in any way, shape or form. Amen. So notice it talked about going back to the beginning. Let's go look at those scriptures in the beginning because I think there's a correlation here. Let's see what we're talking about here. Genesis 1 1-5. Oh, look at that. We just read John 1 1-5. Now we're going to read Genesis 1 1-5. Look at the similarities here. This is incredible. In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. Then God said, "Let there be light." And there was light. And God saw the light that it was good. And God divided the light from the darkness. God called the light day and the darkness he called night. So the evening and the morning were the first day. Okay. So now you see kind of a a similarity and a reversal because in the beginning there was darkness and God created light. And then you can see in John he's saying the word was with God. The moment that God said let there be light that was a spoken word. Now who claims to be the light? Because now once we see and understand this we're going to enter uh find something very interesting here. We're going to see the son of God become real. Watch this. Jesus in John 8:12 says, "And Jesus spoke to them again, saying, I am the light of the world. He who follows me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life."

Okay. So, we know that the light was spoken. So Jesus is out of God and he is the son of God. God calls him his only begotten son and he is the word, the word, the spoken word, the numa, the power, the authority. Hallelujah. He is the light. Now, what's so interesting about this is that throughout history, because the physical embodiment of the word of God did not take place till Jesus was born, books were written. Lots of books were written. Some were lost. Some were found again. And those books pointed to Jesus. and not only pointed to him as the light but as the son of God, our redeemer. Because you see in Genesis in the beginning, God already knew that the fall of man was going to happen and that was going to be well could have been it. But he sent his son and in fact he sent his son before he created us. Hallelujah. Because he said, "Let there be light." Let the sun come. Not the sun, su n, but the s o n. Let there be light. Let there be Jesus.

Let's go back to that. I want you to see something here. Going back to John 1-5. In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God. So God put himself into a word. Now there's something very interesting here. I want you to catch this. He put himself into the word. So when Jesus was born and Jesus started walking on the face of this earth, Jesus was the embodiment of his spoken word. It's the flesh incarnate but as God.

He walked the word. He was the word walking which which is why he healed so many people because he's the numa the power the word that said let there be light. He is that portion. So, what I want to do is I want to take you onto a journey here and and show you how the written word works. How the spoken word works. Okay? Because Jesus became the embodiment of it. He was the physical living word walking the earth. So, but before he became that physical word, he was a spoken word and God used speak and he used written which is all part of the language to communicate to us. So the reason I'm addressing the idea of being in a book format or let's say a video 3D video or let's say a written format or and again the spoken word these are things that God measures us by and Jesus is the first example to set that in motion as the numa because because he is the light everything he touched and did it was power and we're to be like him. God made us in his image and as his image, we're his representative. Are you seeing something that we're going to be going through? Okay. But anyways, I want to show you how powerful the written word is when it is touched by God, covered by God, and known by God. So, we're going to talk about some books. Yes. some written books. I'm going to take you through the journey of the Bible that talks about all the different books. It's well worth this going through this list. So, this is definitely a different kind of teaching, but I want you to see how true the embodiment of Jesus as the living word of God, the the Bible, the written word. He is the living. He became the the persona of that. So let's start with our first um word that was brought to our attention. So in uh in Genesis 5:1 there is a thing that's called the book of the generations of Adam. This is the book of the genealogy of Adam. In the day that God created man he made him in the likeness of God. Now remember Moses wrote Genesis. He started writing a book about the gen genealogies under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit or of God the light. Amen. Look at this. Now there is called the book of the covenant. Then he took the book of the covenant read it in the hearing of the people and they said all that the Lord has said we will do and be obedient. E Exodus 247. So, as you can see what God did here with Moses, who wrote the first five books of the Bible, he wrote a genealogy and and I'm sure they were all separate scrolls. They were put together later on. Okay? So, I want you to see how this is dealt with and they're written at different times. Now, in this case, Moses wrote those first five books. He wrote the covenant down. There is a covenant between the nation of Israel and God. And you can see the people agreed to do it all. So it was written down by Moses, but it was spoken to the people and they acknowledged. So now you see how the written portion worked and the spoken portion worked and how the two came together. Now why did it have to be written? Because there going to be generations of people coming and they were not there at the assembly when it was spoken. So they got to read it to be a part of that covenant and grasp onto it and then acknowledge it. Okay? So it's a continuation on because we don't live forever. Everybody has to die at least once. So let's continue on with more books. Look at how this goes on even further. There is a thing called the book of the wars of the Lord. Interesting. This is in Numbers 21:14, the first part of the verse, verse uh A. Therefore, it is said in the book of the wars of the Lord. Now, if you're curious about what that book entails, go read the story associated with those scriptures. I have a lot of content here. I can't go off into the rabbit trails and and go into all the stories there, but I want you to realize there's a whole lot of books here. So, wars of the Lord. Interesting, isn't it? Look at this. Now, we have what's called the book of the law. If you obey the voice of the Lord your God to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law and if you turn to the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul. Deuteronomy 30:10. Now the book of the law is encompassed with the book of the covenant. And again, Moses wrote all of that. This is Deuteronomy and they're talking about the blessings and the cursings there. And remember what I talked about in our last message that I taught that we are the image of God. We represent him and as such you have the authority to make peace or calamity because you are a representation of God and that is what God does as he said in Isaiah 45:7 to King Cyrus 400 years in advance. Isn't that awesome? So let's continue on and look at all these other books that the Bible is referring to. But keep in mind what these are doing. God made a covenant with the nation of Israel. He made a law. Okay, so I'm going to pause here for a moment and tell you why he did what he did. Remember, we're in his image and we represent God. And as that representation, the nation of Israel represented to the world the law. And the law said, "You're a sinner." And so all the people of the world who looked at the nation of Israel in those days saw that they were sinners and as a result they knew they were in the wrong and they had to go to God to find how to get saved. The nation of Israel was the ones pointing this out. Okay. So now as you know nation of Israel had many kings, many generations that followed and as a result the book of the law, the book of the covenant that all encompassed together with the nation of Israel was a written statement of something spoken to the first generation in relation to all of that. What Moses had to do was take the people out of Egypt. that first generation and on were the ones who received this covenant and they said they agreed that let's do this. So now the following generations had to do it. So you had to have this written word. So this is what's taking place here as we look at these books. Now let's continue on. There's another book here called the book of Jasher. So the sun stood still and the moon stopped till the people had revenge upon their enemies. Is this not written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven and did not hasten to go down for about a whole day. Joshua 10:13. Again, I encourage you to get in there and read what that event was about because that is a powerful event that took place. Joshua is now the leader of the nation of Israel and he is uh taking the nation of Israel into the promised land. Okay. So, this is what he had to do. And he's having to attack all the people, the inhabitants of the lands at that time and kick them out because that land was promised to the nation of Israel by God to Abraham as a covenant. Remember, we've got covenants that took place. So, here's where things get very interesting. The book of Jasher, that book exists today. and it is not part of the canon that the the whole encompass of what the Bible is today. So, you know, I don't know what went into that committee that put the canon together. You can look that up and research that. What I'm going to say is that the Bible of itself is for your spiritual growth. any extra books that the Bible points to because the Bible is pointing to the book of Jasher has additional information that you can use for historical purposes. One of the things that I find interesting about the book of the of Jasher is Abraham, his youth, how he finds God and how he acknowledges that's not written in in uh gener Genesis. So, you might want to go back and look at the book of Jasher and check it out because he does talk about that those kind of things. And of course, there's a whole lot more in the book of Jasher. So, by all means, get in there and check it out. And so, let's continue on uh with some more books because what you know, I want you to see the power of the written word from a spoken word. I want you to see the history of how this is happening. So, and there are more books. By the way, I'm not going to go through all of them. There are so many I can't cover them all. Please do your homework. Get in there and check it out. It's awesome. Okay, we have the book of the acts of Solomon. Now, the rest of the Acts of Solomon, all that he did and his wisdom, are they not written in the book of the acts of Solomon? And this is in first kings 11:41. Now, what we have in the Bible is the Song of Solomon. That is not the acts of Solomon. So, this book is different. It is separated. So it and it could be referring to the proverbs. So they call it proverbs but it could be the acts of I don't know but the bible is referring to it. This book exists. And look at this one. The book of the chronicles. Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam. How he made war and how he reigned. Indeed they're written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel. First kings 14:19.

Kings and Chronicles tell the same thing, but from two different perspectives. You've got the Kings, which tells you from the human physical world what physically happened. It's a documentary of what the Kings did. Chronicles takes it one step further and God shows you the behind the scenes and says, "This is what was going on spiritually." So, you might want to get in there and read the two and compare them side by side because I think you're going to find there was so much more going on. And again, with that spiritual stuff going on, that written word, the com covenant and the law and all how all the kings were dealing with it plays a huge role in their witness and testimony to the world that God held them responsible for. Let's continue on because there's so much more here. Watch this. There is the book of the kings of Israel and Judah which I just referred to a bit ago. So all Israel was recorded by genealogies and indeed they were inscribed in the book of the kings of Israel but Judah was carried away captive to Babylon because of their unfaithfulness. 1 Chronicles 9:1. Okay. So you saw kings referring to Chronicles. Now Chronicles is referring to Kings. So the two go hand in hand but one is written of the the uh perspective of man and the other is written by the perspective of God. Amen. Now we have what's called the book of Samuel the seer. Now the acts of King David first and last indeed they are written in the book of Samuel the seer and the book of Nathan the prophet and in the book of Gad the seer 1st Chronicles 29:29. You see how many books were written? Those books are not in the Bible. Samuel is, but Gad, let's see, it was Nathan and Gad. They're not in there. Where are those books? But it talks about King David and all his acts. And Samuel already covered it. So, I suppose I just did not need to be there. So, but you see how it was documented, written, and everything. Now, look, we're going to see here in the book of Nathan the prophet. Uh now the re this is now going into Solomon's reign. It says now the rest of the acts of Solomon first and last are they not written in the book of Nathan the prophet. Look at this. In the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite and in the visions of Edo the seer concerning Jeroboam the son of Nibbat. 2 Chronicles 9:29. Look at these other books. They're not in the Bible, but they exist or they have existed and they were written and they could be with all of wherever uh the temple uh stuff is if it survived the length of time. And then we have the book of Shemiah the prophet, the acts of Rayoboam, first and last. Are they not written in the book of Shmiah the prophet and of Edo the Seir concerning genealogies? And there were wars between Rayoboam and Jeroboam all their days. 2 Chronicles 12:15. So now you're starting to see a little bit more of what's going on. They they've been documenting history. You see that they're fighting internally now. Uh you had King David, you had Solomon, and now the split of Raoboam and Jeroboam. And the nation of Israel splits. And you've got the nation of Israel and you have Judah. So this is and it's going to be like this. Remember though, they are supposed to be in the image of God and they're supposed to be following the covenant of their predecessors. Watch what happens. This is fascinating, you guys. This is really fascinating. There's the book of Joo, son of Hanani. Now, the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, f first and last. Indeed, they are written in the book of Jahu, the son of Hanani, which is mentioned in the book of the kings of Israel. 2 Chronicles 20:34. Look at this. There's what's called the book of Moses. And they removed the burnt offerings that they might give them to the divisions of the father's house of the lay people to offer to the Lord as it is written in the book of Moses. And so they did with the cattle. 2 Chronicles 35:12. The book of Moses might be a different book altogether than any part of the first five books of the Bible. It could be reporting uh uh pointing to a section that was consolidated in the first five books of the Bible. It is very difficult to tell as to what that is cuz so many generations have passed now and people call books differently different names and refer to them differently in their generation than what was pre previously there. So hard to tell but you see that there's another book. It has to be written so the next generation can get it. But they got to read it. Watch. Let's go on. Let's continue on. Here we have the book of the records of your fathers. Remember what I just said. Talk about a new name. But this is a new name. But this is referring to the five first five books of the Bible and the Kings and Chronicles. Look at this. says that search may be made in the book of the records of your fathers and you will find in the book of the records and know that this city is a rebellious city harmful to kings and provinces and that they have incited edition within the city and former times for which cause this city was destroyed. Ezra 4:15 you I want you to see something here. Look at what it says. Catch this. And you will find in the book of records and know that the city is a rebellious city. They had to go look to see what happened in history. Do you see how they did not know?

Anyways, let's continue on because I got two powerful things here next that is just it is going to change you on the inside, especially if you love God with all your heart. Look at this. There's a thing called your book and we're going to look at Psalm 56:8. You number my wanderings, put tears into your bottle. Are they not in your book? And then there's this other verse in Psalm 139:16. Your eyes saw my substance being yet unformed. And in your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them. God has a book about you.

He is writing down everything about you and what you do. Now, he when you were born, he writes down the moment actually before you were born and you were fertilized or conceived, God knew your name, knew what you were going to look like, and he wrote it down. He has this book and he wrote it down. And in that book that he wrote it down, he has been writing down things about you and what you did. And I bet you he even wrote down what he foraw or foresees of your future. And but he wrote down what you ended up having done instead of what he had planned for you. Everything is written in there. So, I'm hoping that if you are listening to this or catch on that you repent and then God says, "Okay, he repented. Here we go. We're going to continue on. Watch the change in his life." Amen. Hallelujah. So, God has this book and it has your name on it. He has a book of Lisa. Oh my word. I It's not a book I want to read. But anyways, God is so mindful of us. He loves us that much. Hey, I bet he because he tells you how he says he knows how much hair you have on your body at any given moment. He might write that down. I don't have a copy of the book in front of me, but God does. And he's sitting there writing it. I can see him even writing that. Oh, hey, Lisa's teaching me teaching the people about the books.

Let that touch you. Let that minister to you. Amen. Continuing on, we've got what's called the book of the living or the book of life. Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, not be written with the righteous. That's in Psalm 69:28. And I urge you also, true companion, help these women who labored with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow workers whose names are in the book of life. Philippians 4:3. He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the book of life, but I will confess his name before my father and before his angels. Revelation 3:5. Let's continue on because there's more references to the book of the living. All who dwell on the earth will worship him whose names have not been written in the book of the of life of the lamb slain from the foundation of the world. Revelation 13:8. And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was open, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged according to their works by the things which were written in the books. Revelation 10:12. And anyone not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire? Revelation 20:15. The title of this message is, "Is your name found in the written in the living, the book of the living?" Well, I hope it is. Anyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Joel 21:13, Romans 10:13, make sure that you call on the name of the Lord and get saved. Amen. So, and you notice that referred to a whole lot of other different books. Now, let's continue on here. We've got the book of the generations of Jesus Christ. And here in Matthew 1:1, the book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham, and it lists all the genealogies. Again, how did Matthew know? He also went back and looked at the previous books. So now I want you to see something because you should have a particular reaction to this, especially to the book of the living part and to the fact that God has a book written about you that's going to be opened up on the day of judgment. I want you to see what happened when some of these books were lost and how a particular king reacted to it. This is so powerful. Look at this. Second Kings 22, we're going to read verse 8 and 11. Then Hilkaya the high priest said to Chaffon the scribe, "I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord." And Hilkaya gave the book to Chiffon and he read it. And then in verse 11, and again, you know, you go and read the stuff in between. Find out what it says. Go find out how it got to the king now because we're talking the priest's duty. The the handler found this book and he's reading it and he's like, "Hey, you got to go read this thing. This is interesting stuff." Now, he's going to read it to the king. Watch what happens when he he gives it to the king. He says, "Now, this is verse 11. Now it happened when the king heard the words of the book of the law that he tore his clothes. He rent his heart. He repented. Hallelujah. So the book of the covenant, the book of the law that told us what we were sinners fallen. This is why we had to know about the book of Genesis. This is why we had to know about the fall of man. It told us what happened, why we're born into a spiritual war. why we're here today having to deal with why do bad things happen. You know, this is why all these books had to be written because we're a new generation. And when we come into the picture, we have to pick it up and read what happened in the past and either accept it or deny it, reject it. I encourage you to accept it because the the power of the word of God, Jesus being the embodiment of the the spoken word of let there be light and he is the light and as that power Numa and that he walked around. I mean even when he came out of the grave uh it was written uh from the um historian of the time and I can't think of his name for the life of me at the moment but they wrote about how many other people came out of the graves. It's also the end I think at the end of book of Matthew and all these other graves open and imagine that's how powerful this word is. light came into existence as soon as God said it. He's got to be careful with what he says, right? He has to make sure that he says proper things. Otherwise, he could end things and just like that. But he spoke that he said that he came out of the grave. That power just brought all these people up out of the grave at the same time Jesus came out. So when Jesus was revealing himself, Aunt Martha came over and and walked up to the household there and said, "Hey guys, I'm back. I gotta tell you about Jesus and where I was." And there goes that spoken word again. And then it got documented. And because it got documented, we can read it today and go and receive like the king did and repented. remember and and because of these old books. We're made in his image. We would never understand that or know that because you God is spirit. We can't see him. I must resemble him. I must look something like him. You resemble him. You look like him. But we're representations of him. We represent him. And as we would never known had we not heard that word now. So, we know that the nation of Israel had a responsibility to the world and that covenant took place. It was written and then it was spoken. Look at what it says because you need to know it because now we're you got to see the conclusion of what happened with the nation of Israel. You see, what happened is Israel rejected Jesus Christ as their Messiah and the Messiah was cut off. That's scripture. He went on, but he's coming back as king. So he he completed his priestly duties. He needed to do his priestly part. He did that. He completed. He got cut off. So God says, "You rejected me. I'm going to go to the Gentiles and I'm going to create a bride of Christ." And that is us today still relying on the covenant and the promises made to the nation of Israel who represented God during that time and wrote it down so that we can speak it again because it was already spoken and apply it to our lives today because we are in his image. We represent him. If he can create peace and he can create calamity, we have the responsibility to create peace and to create calamities. Amen. So watch this. Look at what Deuteronomy says here. Uh Deuteronomy 28 1-3. Now it shall come to pass if you diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God to observe carefully all his commandments which I command you today that the Lord your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you because you obey the voice of the Lord your God. Blessed shall you be in the city and blessed shall you be in the country. And there are many more blessings there. Get into the word. Find out what it means. find out because it is your responsibility to look at the old word and see how it was spoken, how it was agreed to, and then it was written so that you can read it, speak it, and apply it and live it today. Hallelujah. But there's another part to that. Look at the other part. Says Deuteronomy 28:15-16. But it shall come to pass, if you do not obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all his commandments and his statutes, which I command you today, that all these curses will be upon you and overtake you. Cursed shall you be in the city, and cursed shall you be in the country. Why do bad things happen right there? You're cursed. And it's because you're just not following the commandments of God. You're not repenting. Jesus is the light, the embodiment of the word of God. And that covenant went into place and we get to live that covenant if we choose to do so. It's your responsibility to choose. So is your name written in the book of the living or is it blotted out? You know, once again, Jesus write or God writes about you. He's got your name written there. But as long as you don't repent and you do not follow his commandments, it gets blotted out. But once you repent, you're saved. And it's written in blood. Because Jesus gave his blood as the light. He gave his blood to say, I know you are going to be there for me. I know you're going to call on my name. I'm going to save you and you're going to be saved. In fact, Jesus is there fighting for you, praying for you, lifting you up before God. And God is writing in his book going, "I know Lisa's got it. I know so and so's got it. He knows, talk to him. Put the covenant into practice. Speak it. Say, "Yeah, Lord, I'm going to do this. I'm going to follow your commandments. I'm going to love you. I'm going to lift you up. Why? Not just because I can get the blessing, but because you're God. You're my maker. I'm the make. I was made. I'm the created, but I'm in your image. And I thank you for adopting me and bringing me into who you are. Because let's remember what's going to happen here. He still has to finish dealing with the nation of Israel. That's what the whole sevenyear tribulation is about. If you read the book of Revelation, Daniel. So, he still has to deal with him, which means we have to as Gentiles be our representative to the world right now because that is our calling. And that means we also have to stand up as Christ represent to the world and get ready because Harpato is going to happen here once he seals 144,000 because the 144,000 will become the new representation to the world for God, their image. They're made in his image and we will be taken out in the nick of time. Amen. So let's continue and look at here what it says here. John, I want to say it again. This I can't stress this. Then Jesus spoke to them again saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows me shall not walk in darkness but have the light of life." John 8:12. In other words, because you accept Jesus, you make that covenant with him. You repent.

It gets spoken. It gets written in God's book. You become a light. The light comes on and now you represent the world. And every emotion, everything that you deal with, everything that goes on in your life becomes a a written testimony to the world in God's book. And in fact, you're probably going to be judging people. The millennial reign when that happens, you know, the martyrs and those harpazzo, they're going to be judging. That is, you know, you're in preparation today for that coming up. So you need to be ready because and God is writing it down. So if he's writing it down, he knows maybe you might want to be a little clean. Might want to fix yourself up a bit. Oh, God's looking at me. Oh, God's thinking. Oh, he's writing down. It just it's a great motivator. It helps you stand, but at the same time, you can say, "Thank you, God. Thank you for saving me. Thank you for being there. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for making me the light and being a part of Jesus and being a part of the bride because remember he chose the nation of Israel. I'm not Israeli but I am now because I accept Jesus as my Lord and Savior and I'm adopted into the family. So can you. And let's continue on here. John 3:21. But he who does the truth comes to the light that his deeds may be clearly seen and that they have but been done in God. So as you do your good deeds in the light, God sees, he records and documents in his book of you. And as you go on further walking with the Lord, those things get documented. He's And you know what it why do you write a book?

Does he go back and read? Does he see the changes in you? Does he acknowledge that? Yeah, that's God. Oh my word. He's absolutely incredible and amazing. And you know what, guys? You need to repent. This is remember now we've been talking about the whole word spoken, written. Now look, look, look, look what it says. Romans 10:9, that if you confess with your mouth, how could Paul say it any other way? It was perfectly said that with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Hallelujah. And your name will not be blotted out of the book of the living. You were already known by God at the moment of conception or the moment of fertilization. He knew you and he started writing his book about you. You are made in his image. You are a representative of him. You can choose to walk in righteousness and be blessed or to choose to walk in darkness and be cursed. If your life is full of drama and calamities, you might want to reconsider because I'm gonna tell you right now, in spite of what's going on in the world here, and we've got some serious stuff going on, I can walk in peace and joy and know that I'm ready to go home and meet my maker whenever that happens. Amen. Let's pray. Father God, we bless this message and we thank you for this message and this word. We thank you for being the embodiment of the living word and and showing us how just that spoken word was so powerful that you came into being and that you ministered to the world and you changed lives and you changed the entire world. Well Lord, we bless you and we thank you because you're blessing us to be in your image and you're teaching us and showing us how to be that light and how to represent you appropriately to the world. Thank you for your wisdom, knowledge, understanding. Thank you for your word. Let it be our foundation and our strength. In the name of Jesus we pray. Amen. God bless you and I will see you in the next message. Bye-bye.
