today is the feast of tabernacles one of
the holy autumn feasts
let us share the word of god with a
sermon titled
as great as the coronavirus
that has been affecting everyone in the
let us examine what we
the people of god
should pay attention to
and which path we should walk in our
life of faith when this kind of trial
comes upon the whole world
following the truth that god has taught us
us
let us lead even one more soul into the
arms of god even during this covet 19 pandemic
pandemic
so that we can return to our eternal
home heaven
let's look at the words of god in the
since you have kept my command to endure patiently
patiently
i will also keep you from the hour of trial
trial
i'll make a pillar in the temple of my god
god
i will write on him the name of my god
in the name of the city of my god
the new
jerusalem which is coming down out of
and i will also write on him my new name
you as an ear let him hear what the
spirit says the churches
this present disaster that has come upon
that all people around the whole world
are experiencing simultaneously
there are many verses in the bible that
contain the word trial
in the records of the bible
what does god say about the ones who are resilient
resilient
i will make them the pillars in the
temple of god
those who are victorious will become the pillars
pillars
and they will have the name of the new jerusalem
jerusalem
what can be done
only by those who overcome the trial
the path of the gospel we are walking today
today
is lagging to the trial and test
the israelites experience during their
40-year journey in the desert
3500 years ago in the time of moses
when the people of israel stumbled over
a trial and fell into a test
just a few overcame it
there's life's 40-year journey in the desert
desert
can be compared to our journey in this
we can fully understand the relationship
between prophecy and his fulfillment here
here
during the 40-year spend in the wilderness
wilderness
every situation that the israelites encountered
encountered
was a trial
and a test
god sometimes humbled the israelites
sometimes exalted them
sometimes made them hungry and sometimes
he sometimes let them fight against a
nation stronger than israel
and sometimes
enable them to win the battle
god placed the israelites in numerous predicaments
predicaments
and consistently reminded them of the
fact that they would always achieve
victory in the desert as god was with him
god also constantly taught them to many trials
trials
that as long as they obeyed the word of god
god
they would surely enter the promised
now let's go back to the history of 3
500 years ago
just as all the situations during the 40
years of the desert life for trials
we are facing many trials such as covet 19
19
and the anxieties of life
while we
are walking in the desert of faith
the bible awakens us to the fact that
every situation given to us
is a test
let's look at the teaching in
be careful to follow every command i'm
so that you may live and increase
and may enter and possess the land that
the lord promised on oath to your forefathers
remember how the lord your god led you
he humbled you
causing you to hunger and then feeding
you with manna
which neither you
nor your father's had known
to teach you that man does not live on
bread alone
but on every word that comes from the
your clothes did not wear out
and your feet did not swell during these
know then in your heart that as a man
disciplines his son
observe the commands of the lord your god
god
walking in his ways
for the lord your god is bringing you
into a good land
a land with streams and pools of water
with springs flowing in the valleys and
hills a land with wheat and barley vines
and fig trees pomegranates olive oil and honey
honey
a land where bread will not be
a land where the rocks are iron
when you have eaten and are satisfied
praise the lord your god
for the good land
according to deuteronomy chapter 8
at every moment of the israelites 40
years in the desert
god put them in a series of situations
it is written in verse 3 he humbled you
a situation that caused them to be
humble was given
as it is written causing you to hunger
they were put in a situation that caused
him to be hungry
as it is written feeding you with manna
which neither you nor your father's had known
known
god put them in a situation where he
god also put them in a situation where
their clothes
did not wear out for 40 years
so they did not even need to mend them
or make new clothing
all the situations during the 40 years
for some people the situation was uncomfortable
uncomfortable
for some others the situation was uncomfortable
uncomfortable
for some others another situation made
them uncomfortable
in some other cases
they were either given too much
or too little
sometimes their situations were uncomfortable
uncomfortable
and other times your situations were too comfortable
comfortable
in the midst of the trials that come
upon the whole world
we must understand
that we are now in the same situation therefore
therefore
we must overcome the trials which are
part of the prophecy
we should not consider the coronavirus
as simply a medical dilemma
since god made known that such a trial
would come upon the whole world
we should ask ourselves
what did god want to teach his people
by putting them in different situations
every moment during the 40 years in the desert
god sometimes humbled them
sometimes caused them to hunger
and other times fed them with mana abundantly
abundantly
these lights ate manna
but didn't they all die
it is because man cannot live on bread alone
alone
since mankind cannot only live on food
that fills their stomachs the spiritual food
food
that is the word of god
is absolutely necessary for them to live
in order to make the israelites realize
and learn this lesson
god orchestrated various situations
or leading them through the thirsty and
that is why the bible says it is to know
what was in your heart whether or not
when we look at first peter chapter five
it is written that today we are in a
situation where the devil is crowned
around like a roaring lion
looking for someone to devour
what is emphasized in first peter 5
is faith
it says resist him standing firm in the faith
faith
to stand firm in the faith
you have practiced preaching from the
sermon books
and are now preaching to your
acquaintances and families online
each and every one of you has been
making much effort
less you should neglect studying the
word of god
all of your effort is to win the victory
at the hour of trial
that comes upon the whole world
some weak and immature members might
misunderstand the situation thinking
god put us
god said in revelation 2 10
be faithful even the point of death in
order to go to the kingdom of heaven
if we live an easy
and comfortable life
then we must be aware that our souls are
during this preaching week of the feast
of tabernacles
let us preach to our acquaintances and friends
friends
who we can meet face to face
however if we cannot meet them in person
we can preach this gospel to our
families friends and acquaintances
god always allows us
to be in certain difficult situations to
if god from the beginning
had led the israelites to a place
they would not have complained
saying there is no water
if he had led them to a place where
there was plenty of food
they would not have complained saying
there is no food to eat
however god sometimes put them in a
lacking and uncomfortable situation
in that situation people may have
thought we will starve to death because
they feel so hopeless
at the time
everyone
even if a trial comes upon the whole
world through this preaching week of the
feast of tabernacles
we should fill ourselves with spiritual
food that is the word of god
and march toward the kingdom of heaven
this is the very lesson that we must
it is said in revelation 3
trial is going to come upon the whole
world to test those who live on the earth
earth
no matter what situation
we must neither let go of god
as we are living in the age of the feast
of tabernacles
let us preach the gospel to those who
have not yet heard it
let's move on to deuteronomy chapter 28
in deuteronomy chapter 28 verse 1 it
says if you fully obey the lord your god
and carefully follow all his commands i
give you today
the lord your god will set you high
all these blessings will come upon you
and accompany you
if you obey the lord your god
you'll be blessed in the city
the fruit of your room will be blessed
the crops of your land and the young of
your livestock the calves of your herds
and the lambs of your flocks
your basket and your needing trough will
be blessed
you'll be blessed when you come in
doesn't obeying god mean
absolutely following
she had only the last meal for herself
and her son
after that they might die of starvation
because there is no more food left
however elijah appeared and asked her
please bring me a piece of bread
she was ready for her life to end on the
earth after eating the last meal with
her son when she was asked to bring the
last of her food to him it was a big
test to the widow and zeraphath
as a result of obeying his request
and serving him with the meal
her jug of oil did not run dry
and a jar of flour was not used up
until the time came
when the crops could grow
didn't she receive a gracious blessing
all the situations that are happening
around us
are trials
in the desert of faith different kinds
of trials will come upon the whole world
that is why it is written in deuteronomy
chapter 28 verse 1
we must fully obey god
and do as god commands us
i could not obey
because i had no food to eat
i could not do that because of a lack of time
time
when we make efforts to obey him rather
than make an excuse
god will continue to open the way
even in the kova 19 pandemic we
constantly receive the news about fruit
between those who think it is possible
and those who do not think it is possible
possible
and between those who put god's word
into practice
god creates a situation
and observes
who is obeying his word
during the preaching week of the feast
of tabernacles let us bear abundant good fruits
let us be found as those
who have overcome all trials
that come upon the whole world
as for the trial coming upon the whole world
world
jesus also warned in luke 21
let's take a look at luke chapter 21
your hearts will be weighed down with dissipation
and what else will your hearts be
weighed down with
the anxieties of life
and that day
will close on you unexpectedly like a trap
those who repeatedly compromise with circumstances
circumstances
justify themselves thinking
thinking
god told us to preach diligently
but it would be okay
even if i do not preach since i am in a
difficult situation like this
they indulge themselves in living
according to circumstances not according
to god's word
it was natural for the israelites to
grumble because they had no food
however what was the result of their
grumbling during their 40-year journey
in the desert
since they were swayed by the situations
all the ways into the land of canaan were
couldn't blocked have rained down manna
from heaven
for the israelites
and provided enough water for them to
drink from the very beginning of their
however he put them in such difficult
situations to see their faith through
their actions
in this way he separated those who had
faith from those who did not
just as god separated 300 warriors from
the 32 000 israelites by gradually
reducing the size of gideon's army
he separated israelites in the desert
god told gideon to announce to the
people anyone who trembles with fear may
turn back
then god said to gideon take them down
to the water
by looking at how they drink water god
judged their mindset
so jesus said
be careful
or if you are not careful your hearts
will be weighed down with dissipation drunkenness
drunkenness
and anxieties of life
and that day will close on you unexpectedly
unexpectedly
like a trap
let's continue with verse 35
for it will come upon all those who live
on the face of the whole earth
be always on the watch and pray
that you may be able to escape all that
is about to happen
and that you may be able to stand before
the son of man
let us keep in mind that every
circumstance given to us
is to test our faith
let us take a look at john chapter 13
jesus replied
you do not realize now what i'm doing
jesus said later you will surely
everyone we need to know why god says
just obey my words follow my teachings
we do not fully know the spiritual
things in the fourth or fifth
dimensional world
but god knows everything
so god says if you believe in me
obey my words
when you do so you will see whether or
not spiritual blessings
the whole world is now experiencing the
great tribulation called covenanting
our daily activities are restricted
and we are unable to freely gather for worship
what if we drift away from god's word
because we are in this situation
where we're restricted from going to church
church
we should overcome all these
difficulties and stand firm in the faith
spiritually we're in a very dangerous situation
why are we in this situation
to those who know the reason for a
situation and face it
however
to those who do not know the reason
behind a situation
using a situation as an excuse
is an act of weak faith
for those who fail to overcome the test of
we temptation encounter something even
if god says stop preaching during the
coven 19 pandemic
we would have to stop
but if not
in the book of john chapter 13
jesus said
you do not realize now what i'm doing
but later
you will understand
let's move on to matthew chapter four
then jesus was led by the spirit into
the desert to be tempted by the devil
after fasting 40 days and 40 nights
he was hungry
the tempter came to him and said
if you are the son of god
tell these stones to become bread
took him to the holy city and had him
stand on the highest point in the temple
if you are the son of god he said
throw yourself down
for it is written he'll command his
angels concerning you
and they'll lift you up in their hands
so you will not strike your foot against
the stone
jesus answered him it is also written
do not put the lord your god to the test
again the devil took him to a very high
mountain and showed him all the kingdoms
of the world and their splendor
all this i will give you he said if you
bow down and worship me
jesus said to him away from me satan for
it is written
worship the lord your god and serve him only
only
then the devil left him and angels came
satan put jesus in three different situations
situations
after jesus fasted for 40 days satan
when we are hungry we seek food to
however what did jesus teach us to prepare
prepare
he taught us that god's word the
spiritual food is much more important
than physical food
man does not live on bread alone
but on every word that comes from the
satan repeatedly created situations to
tempt jesus
to prevent him from obeying the will of god
god
however look at jesus answer even though
he was very hungry
though it was bread that jesus needed he said
said
even when he was hungry he taught us
that spiritual food
he was never wavered by those situations
or dragged into them
for this reason
wasn't he able to overcome all the temptations
temptations
in the second temptation satan had jesus
stand on the highest point of the temple
and said throw yourself down
you are holy god and your angels will
come and lift you up in their hands
so you will not strike your foot against
satan crappily devised those physical
situations to tempt jesus to doubt the
do not put the lord your god to the test
the bible has never taught us to test god
god
brothers and sisters
satan always throws us into
circumstances where we may drift away
from god
in order to overcome
every test
of temptation
we must not be dragged into situations
shouldn't we remind ourselves what god
when jesus overcame the second temptation
temptation
satan said that he would give him all
the splendor of the world
if he worshipped him
the bible says that we must not worship anything
anything
or anyone
overcome the temptation
that is coming upon the whole world
so jesus said in matthew 4
which is more important spiritual food
or physical food
is god the object of tests or the object
of faith
in the third temptation jesus asked
which is right worshiping anyone or
anything else
other than god or serving god only
jesus did everything as recorded in the bible
he said in the first and second temptation
temptation
god's word spiritual food is more important
and god is the object of our faith
not the object of test
he said in the third temptation serve
god and worship him only
jesus showed us this kind of example of
how to overcome temptation
if we fully carry out the words of jesus
we'll be able to make this autumn feast
the feast of tabernacles more fruitful
as jesus was sitting on the mount of olives
olives
the disciples came to him privately tell
us they said when will this happen
and what will be the sign of your coming
let us carefully look at what jesus answered
we must watch out for this secondly
secondly
jesus also warned us not to be deceived
by false christs therefore we must watch
out for them
jesus also said
nation will rise against nation
and kingdom against kingdom
there will be famines and earthquakes in
in verse 9 jesus said you'll be hated by
in verse 10
he mentioned the characteristics of
those who have fallen into temptation
he said at that time many will turn away
from the faith and will betray and hate
each other
if we have any feelings of hatred
towards anyone in the truth
we must get rid of those feelings immediately
immediately
we must think i'm going through a great
test now
let's continue with verse 11.
and many false prophets will appear and
deceive many people verse 12.
because of the increase of wickedness
but he who stands firm to the end meaning
meaning
he who overcomes all these circumstances
those who overcome are neither the ones
who are attempted in any circumstance
nor the ones who are dragged into hell
the one who stands firm in god's word to
the end will be saved
this gospel of the kingdom will be
preached and the whole world is a
testimony to all nations
then you will understand why all these situations
situations
you do not realize it now
all our beloved members of zion
let us run with all our strength
towards the day
when the gospel of the kingdom is
preached in samaria
and even to the ends of the earth
just as father and mother said
i hope that we will all receive complete
salvation and go to the eternal kingdom
of heaven without leaving anyone behind
now let me conclude today's sermon thank
