Tell them not I love. Tell them though it seems you are forsaken. Just tell them though it seems your heart is shaking. Tell them for me. Please tell them for me. Tell them not I love them and I came to let them know. Second Chronicles chapter 32. How can I say thanks? Verse 9. After this, Senator Cherub, king of Syria, sent his servants to Jerusalem while he was besieging Lashish with a message saying. Verse 10. Thus says Senator Cherub, king of Assyria, on What are you trusting? That you are remaining in Jerusalem under siege? What are you trusting? Is not Hezekiah misleading you over to die by hunger and by test, saying, the Lord our God will deliver us from the hand of the king of Assyria? Has not the same Hezekiah taken away his high places and his altar said to Judah and Jerusalem? You shall worship before 1 altar? Do you not know what I and my fathers have done to all the peoples of the lands? Were the gods of the nations of the lands at all able to deliver their land from my hand? Who was there among all the gods of those nations which my father utterly destroyed, who could not deliver his people out of my hand as the king of Syria? Now, therefore, do not let Hezekiah deceive you, and do not believe him. For no God of any nation or Kingdom was ever able to deliver His people from my hand and from the hand of my fathers. How much less will your God deliver you from my hand? And his servants spoke further against the Lord God and against His servant Hezekiah. And he also wrote letters to insult the Lord God of Israel and to speak against him, saying, as the gods of the nations of the land have not delivered their people from my hand, so the God of Hezekiah will not deliver his people from my hand. And they call that with a loud voice in the language of the people of Judah and Jerusalem, who have the wall to frighten and terrify them so that they might take the city. Verse 20. But King Hezekiah and Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amos, pray about this and cry to heaven. Hallelujah. And the Lord said, an Angel who destroyed every mighty warrior, commander, and officer in the camp of the king of hysteria. So he returned in shame to his own land. Has God done something wonderful for him? Hezekiah the king, Tell somebody, How can I say thanks, Lord? And when he had entered the temple of his God, some of his own children killed him there with the sword. Like when he got back home, some of his own children killed him. Yeah. Threatening the church, always threatening to do this, threatening to do this. So Hezekiah the Lord saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Senate Cherub the king of Syria, from the hand of all others, and guided them on every side. And many were bringing gifts to the Lord of Jerusalem, and choice presents to Assyria. Amen. Where, where, Where was I bringing gifts to the Lord? And choice presents to Hezekiah king of Judah, so that he was exalted in the side of all the nations thereafter. Amen. You people look sleepy. Are you? Are you there? You didn't sleep enough? You sure? OK. There's 24. I thought I've done something wonderful for the car. How can I say thanks? There's 24 In those days, Hezekiah became mortally. I'll the King James says he was sick unto death, and he prayed to the Lord, and the Lord spoke to him and gave him a sign. Wow, that's 25. But Hezekiah gave no return for the benefit he received, because his heart was proud, and therefore rough came on him, and Judah and Jerusalem. Amen. Hezekiah rendered not again according to the benefits done unto him. Yeah, and it gives a reason according for his heart was lifted up. You see, how can I say thank you to God for all the many things that he has done And this one, that's why I started reading. Well, you see these guys and a chariot came to stand and fighting the people, telling them there is no one who has been able to save his people from me. All the gods of other countries, they were not able. And he spoke in the Hebrew language for the people to hear, and they were scared. And God sent an Angel to scatter the enemy, and they went up and the when he got home, his children killed him. Yeah. Then after that you became sick. Look at verse 34. You became sick after the victory against Sennacherib, verse 34, the next verse, the 2424, and he says in those days Hezekiah was sick to the death. There are sicknesses to the death and sicknesses not to the death. Hey, mortally ill. And he prayed, you see, and his special dream and gave him a sign God actually gave him a sign that he was healing him. OK, now what is how did he? So this is the song that he should have said. How can I say thanks for the things you have done for me? Things so I deserve, yet you gave to prove your love to me. The voices of 1,000,000 angels could not express my gratitude. All that I am and ever hope to be. I owe it all to you. He should have been singing. How can I say thanks for the things you have done for me? This China charity came to frighten us. We had no weapons. We had no armies. He was talking. Everybody was afraid. We were all afraid. We went and called the prophet. He came and prayed. We knew we were going to die. They would kill us. They would burn us. They would capture us. This is a song he should have been saying. How can I say that for all the things you have done for me, I should have made my army ready. If I didn't, I was a useless king. I wasn't prepared. Yet you gave to prove your love for me the voices. Did not explore my gratitude. All that I am and ever hope to be. I love it all to me. Wow. And he and he. After that another problem came. He was sick after the army case, the war thing came and went back and he heard the news that the king had even been killed by his, his, his, his, his children, which is good news. Like a very bad man has died. I mean, it's like, thankfully, he's not going to come back. And then he got sick and prayed. So many people have prayed to be healed, and they were not healed. Yes, we as pastors have prayed for many people who didn't get well after praying. It's a funeral. Yeah. Sick to death. One day I went to pray for a lady. She was in the hospital when I finished praying. She looked at me and she said, pastor, are you afraid? What a question. And I was afraid, so I had to lie. It's God, forgive me. I told her I'm not afraid. How can I be afraid as a man of God? But I was afraid. That was the last time I saw her. That was the last question she asked me. Yeah. Are you afraid? Yeah. And As for Hezekiah, his case was different. He was healed and the Lord gave him a sign in verse 25, he says, but Hezekiah rendered not again according to the benefits done unto him. Yeah, You see your thanks, excuse me to say you were headed for help. Your thanks is not. Thank you for a hamburger. Thank you for buying Nandos for me. Thank you for buying me a blouse at Mr. Price or Mr. What's Shop Right, Mr. Price, Is it Mr. Price? Thank you for buying a blouse. So thank you for buying the shoes. No, your thanks must be according to the benefits that has been done for you. The major benefit has been done for you. So how can I say thanks is about how to say a proportionate thank you proportionate What has God done for you Is there anybody here who can tell me what God has done my dear, what has God done for you has God done something Is there anything God has done for you tell me yes, God has done a lot of things for me one just one or two a double orphan, but he's given me parents who take care of.

Coming to University of Botswana, there are a. Lot A. Lot any any other any other because is he quickly I think he's given me a loving pastor LP. Liano he's. Given me a loving pastor.

The light you are what, 1? Was lost was was a Sinner once you. Were once a Sinner? What sins were you committing? But we have no time. What has got done for you? God has given me a wonderful family where I can work for him. Because before I, I, I was raised up in a church, but along the way I loved church. I just didn't want to go to church. And when I was at senior school, I used to despise even SU the scripture unit, I used to despise it. If they called me for it, I would say I'm not going. But my parents knew that I loved church, but alone they just didn't love church. But as I as one day I was coming from school and 1. He invited me to church. Who he What has God done for you? Soft life have given me life. I'm alive because of him. Today you'd have been there. Why? Because are you positive? Yes, you are alive. What has got done for you? God has done so many things.

A football team. Football team. Wherever it went, I'll go there. What is Francis? Everywhere which went, I'll be there. That's number one. Number two from HIV. God delivered it from HIV. By serving me. And I'm very thankful to Reverend Dennis. Dennis Wow. So when you go for football matches, what do you do? Will be understand and then shouting, supporting. I wasn't a drunkard. I never drunk. Yes, I wasn't a smoker, but I'll go out there, be there and see them playing on the ground. Wow, what about sex? That's why I said he saved me from fornication. You used to fornicate. Oh yes, during the football matches. No, whatever you, what has got done for you? Yeah, it saved my life. I survived a head on collision. You survived a head on collision. Head on collision? With whom? With what? My family. You were with your family in a car and you had a head on collision with which car? My car. It was my car. Which was the other car? What type of car? I think it. Was a combi. A. Combi, you survived head on collision. Yes. You are alive now, what are you going to do? You were in hospital for how long? For I think 2 weeks. Who died? Two daughters your. Daughters died in the accident and you are here. How can you say thanks? Yeah, obviously with with my life. Commit my life to God. Wow. You know, it's a very important question. How can how can you say thanks? Two of your children died and you come out. Yes, when my wife and my mother-in-law, they also came out. Your children died 2 in one day. Is a sign on the spot? Yeah, he. Actually was off because you died. You died. Yeah, I think for a brief moment, but in medical fields you can call it coma. He was he was coming out of his airport to join the kids. You saw your children. Yeah, I think I went to some room where I saw my, my, my daughters there being held by this giant dark figure. So it's like they were waiting to. I was. It's like they were waiting for me to come to. Them a giant dark figure. So, yeah, so that's when I woke up. So it was from one dark side back to light, although I could see in the dark. I had. I had sight in that dark. Place in a dark place and you saw a figure. A dark figure, Yeah. Very tall. Very tall and he was holding your two children. Yeah, the left. And were they Christians? Were you? Was he a believer then? Nah, no, not really. Oh no. So yeah, but I survived. I survived. So my question is very, I think it's a very important question. How can I say thanks? Hezekiah rendered not again according to the benefits that was done to him to Akim. I'm happy to meet you. Some 5 minutes 5 seconds before the head on collision. So the figure taken took hold of this fear just 5 seconds. Before they called, you saw it. What? No, the I can say the spiritual figure that I witnessed, that's a few seconds like 123 just before the collision. What did he do? Give me volume? What did he do? The figure. What can I say? Direct the I mean, it was supposed to happen, so it's like it had taken over. It wasn't human, whatever happened in the last few seconds, so. The wife was driving. Instead of seeing the wife sweat the figure taking home. You saw that figure taking over the car. Yeah, it's like there was something on top of the person who was driving. So it was a spiritual figure. Yeah. So, but when I went to that room, it's like this figure that I've seen, it's like I've seen it before just before. So I wasn't surprised to to have seen it. It was something that I've just seen somewhere. Do you want to rewrite this verse? Shall we? Will this verse be rewritten with your name? But Joachim rendered not, again according to the benefit done unto him. Would you like that to be written about you? No, You see, very rarely do people have the experience of you sort of get a glimpse because you have not been anywhere before. You are describing something. You see, just like your daughters, they probably did not know God. How old were they? 2 1/2 and 3. 2 1/2 and 3 little children, but 2 1/2 and three they they must be with the Lord. That's the comfort. That is why we pray few, few. Days few weeks after the wife had a dream and the daughter was telling me that I'm in a safe place. Yeah, you know, that's why we pray before we do things or not an accident by spirituality. Yeah. So how are you going to say thank you to the Lord? Yeah, that's like I was saying to give my life. Yes, your life. I want to send a card. But. You want to write a note? Dear Lord, I want to say thanks for everything. We appreciate you. We want you to know. Anyway, if you were saving us, you would have saved us properly. And even my children, you can imagine how we are struggling in the house without them. But anyway, thanks for everything. Bye. From Botswana. Is that how you say thanks? No, now you would have gone. You didn't know the Lord, and by now you'll be like this. Like this in hell. It will recognize you. And maybe those two children died to turn you around. Yeah, don't you think so? Yeah, definitely. Yeah, I can preach about this for the next one week. Every day I have more people who say thanks in different ways. Yeah, there's a car. I was saved. So for me, I'll tell you, I have no other way to say thank you to God than to say, Lord, here I am. I want to say thank you. Not with a card or an Instagram or a letter or a text or a WhatsApp. Thank you. You must say thank you to God with your whole life. Joachim, you know, somebody wrote in the book. He said most people who God will use have been in a near death experience before, like they almost died. And it's a kind of a revelation to you that. It's a revelation to you that your life is a is a supernatural mercy that is being given. To you this in this was his taxi driver he's picking to work so. You were his taxi driver. Yes, special. Picking to work, Then there was a Ghanaian who came to work. Here is his attention. So he gave him his taxi driver said oh I have a taxi driver, he can drop you at wherever you're going to. Then he, the Ghanian invited him to church for the first time. So he came to church and gave his life to Christ. The last time you saw his own taxi driver, he had changed. The taxi driver used to invite him to church, come to church, come to church, that oh I'll find time not coming till after the accident. He said This experience that I had, I cannot explain to anybody, but I have a taxi driver who used to invite me to a certain church. Let me go over there with my. Wife after the accident, he said. Remember, there is a taxi driver. Who to explain to? I would understand, He said he doesn't want anybody to tell him that what he had was coma. He doesn't want to hear that because it's a real experience. Describing as a coma would Did he tell his experience? I was the first person that he said. Perhaps you understand. You are the first person, he shared it. With another brother. Wow. You know when I had the accident on the Tamil, it changed my life. It's one of the most major turning points in my whole life. I saw that you are dead. I didn't see death in the car. But after we're speaking to the white man who was the manager making the roads and everything, the way he explained, he said we don't use ambulance here, we use tipper track, we take the parts and the bodies and we have accident every day. And he described an accident. There was an assemblyman, the district chief executive, he was sitting in front, the people at the back. The guy was in the car collided and the legs of the the one in the front became spierce and went through the back to spear the people sitting at the back. I became more and more terrified by the accident that we have had. And I said, Lord, all that I have and ever hope to be, I owe it. I owe you all every day of your life. I don't want to see something less less than what God would expect for your life. That's why you didn't want to belittle that experience. Somebody would tell you it was a coma or it just happened that you saw the thing taking the wheels, that we are going to crash this car now. Yeah, it's a spirit of death, but it was a spirit of death. You see, like the Bible says, if the Princess of this world had known, they would not have crucified the Son of God because it made salvation come to the whole world. So sometimes an evil spirit may be causing the thing, but actually working out the will of God. How come you are standing here today? You must become a minister, a pastor, a preacher, a saver of people. 9 fractured. 9 fractured rapes. How can I say thanks? Hezekiah rendered. Not again according to the benefits done, my darling, you would have been in your grave knocking at the coffin like this. I'm here, I'm under and here you are standing football team after instead of going church to church or convention to function of crusade to crusade football team to look at what God has done for you. It's so much it will take you tenity to say thank you. It will take that is first for the few years you have here. What will you do? That's why you see our reaching out to people must come on. We must reach out and never you see, you never know who will be ready to give his life to Jesus. There is a point and I see I see more than 1000 people here. You know something? I see thousands of people from here. And you are also going to become international, reaches out to others. God will use you in other countries too. From here, you see that you are Botswana, but you are now in another country doing the work of God. Yeah, I'm going to see people. Botswana. Is that how you say Botswana is it? Botswana. Botswana Botswana people Botswana is 1. OK, whatever. I'm going to see people from here, Botswana's in different nations, and I'm going, I'm going to train you. Oh yes, I'm going to train you. Hallelujah. You know why? Because I sense a call of God. I don't know why. I don't know why, but I sense a call of God. And that call, it's a grace for you. It's like God is giving you an opportunity to say thanks. Do you know why I enjoy being in the ministry? I'm not working. To me, I'm on. I'm on holiday from beginning to end. You know why? Because I am saying thank you every day. It's not like a job, like go to work, do this, do this. Look, I don't even have. I feel that my life is too short enough to say thank you. And like, if you go to heaven, it's like they'll put you on retirement. You'll be singing in a room. I don't know what we are going to do in heaven. It's like I want to do more for God and save more people to be saying, you hear this, You see one day a certain guy saw a vision. He saw a skeleton holding a calabash. Do you know calabash? You have calabash here. It's like with blood in it. He was standing by the roadside waiting for cars to come to cause an accident and drink the blood of the people that were in the car in a vision. They are all spiritual things and God. God wants to use us. It's all of you here in other nations, in places to preach, to teach, to fight, to build, do something because He has been kind to you, just as he has been kind to Hezekiah and He has done. He has done more than one thing for you, more than one thing, more than one thing. You see, God has 10. Your heart, your heart wouldn't have 10. He would have died as a drunkard and a wicked man. He would have gone to hell, do this painful thing. He has thanked you and he has saved because when you look at this, how can you be saved? I am sure somebody has prayed for you before, that's why this thing happened. A lot of. People prayed. A lot of people prayed A. Lot of. People. Yeah. Somebody must have prayed for you. The way I see you, somebody has prayed for you. If somebody has not prayed, you can't be saved. You were headed for hell. That's why we should pray. When you pray safely, how people get saved directs the angels and the powers to them for their salvation. Are you people going to render unto the Lord according to this fantastic benefit that has begun? So now I can go on and on and on. I just have to give my microphone to somebody and say what has got done for you? You hear a fantastic story and say, what are you going to do now? How can I say thanks? Hey. Wow. I believe we have to end this session and continue in. Is it breakfast time? I believe yeah. Before it, before they cancel it. Tell your neighbor. Neighbor. I'm going to do better than Hezekiah. Yeah. Father, thanks for the blessing of salvation of your deliverance. How can we say thank you for the benefit done to us? We give you thanks. We give you glory, we give you praise. May we say thank you with every day of our lives. Jesus name. We don't deserve to be here. We don't deserve because our neighbor is not here, our best friend is not here, our brothers are not here, our own sisters are not here, and here we are. Lord in your presence we thank you. Thank you from watching football. So watching your presence and your anointing, we thank you for this blessing in Jesus mighty name, Amen. So I'm just going to take a short break for breakfast and then we come right back. All right.
