The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures.

He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil.

For thou art with me, thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies.

Thou anointest my head with oil, my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

I'll say that again and I'll make some physical gesticulations.

He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness.

For his name's sake, yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for thou art with me.

In the presence of mine enemies, thou anointest my head with oil.

Surely, goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever This was intended to show you that it is all about God and what God does.

Salvation is all about what God does for the person who thoroughly surrenders his or her life into God's hands.

His mercy is everlasting and his truth endureth to all generations, whether those generations are human or divine, if there is such a thing as a divine generation, truth endureth to all generations.

In other words, as long as there is God, finish my words, there's truth.

Is anyone among us tonight, you are not a Seventh-day Adventist, may I see your hand?

Anyone, you are not a Seventh-day Adventist, may I see your hand?

Are there some shy people refusing to identify themselves?

Come on, someone, identify that nice person who is not a Seventh-day Adventist.

Alexis, Victoria, God bless you beyond your expectation.

This is not a place where violence is practiced.

I want to get to my message, but not until I find out who that person is.

Who is, who else is not a Seventh-day Adventist?

It's not good to deceive the preacher on Sabbath, but okay.

All right, God is good, and all the time.

Thank you, my dear brother Shin, for this invitation.

Yes, I'm busy, but there's some things you can never be too busy to not do, and addressing young people is 1 of those responsibilities.

This is my second occasion on this campus.

I was here a few years ago before any of you were born.

I Do Solemnly Sware

And God spake all these words, saying, I am the Lord thy God, which hath brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

Thou shalt not make unto thee any griven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above or that is in the earth beneath or that is in the water under the earth thou shalt not bow down thyself to them nor serve them for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me, and showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.

Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy.

6 days shalt thou labor and do all thy work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God.

In it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates.

For in 6 days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day.

Wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.

Honor thy father and thy mother that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

Thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbor's.

His mercy is everlasting and His truth endureth, finish it for me, to all generations forever.

I welcome you to the house of God, to worship God in spirit and in truth.

Jesus said, God is a spirit, and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

Spirit is simply that conformity to thus saith the Lord.

By the way, the spirit is called the spirit of truth.

There are some who presume to worship in spirit but not in truth.

Anything other than that and God cannot accept it any more than he accepted Aaron's service when they worshiped that golden calf he rejected it.

May the Lord give us an increasing love for plain and simple truth.

This is the will of God even your sanctification.

It is God's will you and I be sanctified.

The method of sanctification is the word of God.

Last night I met 2 persons who were not Seventh-day Adventists.

Is there anyone present this morning for the first time this weekend you are not a Seventh-day Adventist?

First time this weekend you are not a Seventh-day Adventist.

Anytime you meet, whenever possible, except for board meeting and church and business meeting, Invite someone if you can.

Perhaps you don't have the ready access where you are in this place, but whenever you can, invite someone.

An invitation is a soul-winning strategy and it requires no special gifts, talents, or academic degrees.

Let me tell you a quick story, then I'll jump into the message.

I was in Uganda long time ago To conduct an evangelistic series.

I was in the lobby of the hotel where I was staying and I saw a young lady I began talking to her and she told me she was in the army.

She was guarding a diplomat from another country.

She was on break and a fell off soldier was guarding the diplomat.

And I told her, I want you to come to the meetings.

She said, I'll come, but I have no transportation.

And so I said, a car will pick me up at 5.30.

If you are ready in the lobby, we'll take you.

What do you think happened at the end of the crusade?

Because someone issued a plain and simple invitation.

I still communicate with her by WhatsApp.

I was in Uganda, not Uganda, Tanzania the very next year.

Same purpose, evangelistic series, and I was looking for a gym so I can work out.

And the local elder was with me and I told him to tell the young lady, the receptionist, why I was in her country and I want her to come.

Again, that was the first day of the crusade.

Invitations are powerful, soul winning tools.

Instead of inviting your friend to get into trouble, invite your friend to come to church with you and to listen to the Word of God.

A lot of people are in graveyards because a friend invited them to do something.

A lot of people are in drug rehabilitation programs because a friend invited them to do something.

A lot of people are in prison because a friend invited them to do something.

Let it be said that a lot of people will be in God's kingdom because students at OHA invited their friends to come hear the word of God.

Our subject for today, I do solemnly swear.

Before I get into the message, if you don't need 1 of these as a Bible text, please make sure it's turned off.

Let me check mine, I have to put this down.

Make sure yours are off as well if you don't need them let me tell you another story I was in Boston's for the years ago I'm not a story man this came to me it was a camp meeting held in a hotel you work that out yourself and I was in my room waiting for my turn to speak And I was in my room waiting for my turn to speak.

And I was in my room literally pacing up and down reading the Bible on the phone.

And at the bottom of the phone these little apps appear, am I right?

All these little advertisements, You see them?

This 1, here's a preacher reading the Bible, getting ready to preach.

For more information visit our website www.ohc.org Oh praise the Lord all ye nations.

For His merciful kindness is great toward us, and the truth of the Lord endureth forever.

Yes, Psalm 100 verse 5, for the Lord is good.

Psalm 145 verse 17, the Lord is righteous in all his ways and holy in all his works.

Meaning God never does and cannot do anything wrong.

The Lord is righteous in all his ways and holy in all his works.

And I love God and I also like to say I like God.

God has never done me anything wrong in my entire life.

All my problems I brought on myself by my stupid decisions.

And so I praise his name and I thank him for being such a sweet God and I look forward if I'm faithful to see God How?

This to see God This is the mighty God the father to see him of whom the Bible says no man have seen God at any time You and I revelation 22 verse 4 we shall see him People have seen Christ Not God And I want to see God.

And so I want to see Moses, talk to him a little bit.

I want to see Jonah, chat with him about his submarine experience.

I want to see Mary, what was it like to give birth to God?

Ah, you're not listening, you're laughing at me.

What was it like when your wife was pregnant and you had nothing to do with it?

You know, when I became an Adventist and I began to study the Bible, I was attracted to Paul because of all his travels.

And I said, Lord, can you guess what I told God?

And the Lord, when he saw the time was right, he has permitted me to do that visit at least 51 countries, I believe, and all 6 inhabited continents.

But I want to see God, I want to have a place in his kingdom and the only person who can keep me out is me.

The only person who can keep you out of God's kingdom is you, not Satan.

Now I don't want to defend Satan, but Satan cannot make you sin.

Notice the temptation, if thou be the son of God, command that these stones be made bread.

Temptation is an invitation to which you and I has to RSVP.

Knowing not that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey, but of sin unto death, of obedience unto righteousness.

May you always make the decision to serve God.

I only have, well, all I need is half an hour.

I have to leave very early in the morning.

So when I'm done here, if you don't look around if you look around see me gone, just listen carefully.

You'll hear a loud noise That's me snoring.

All right I have no particular well The subject for this evening.

Unless you have a need for them, otherwise, make sure they're off.

Favour number 2, while I'm speaking, pray for me and say, Lord, put your words in that man's mouth.

Jeremiah chapter 1, verse 9, Then the Lord put forth his hand and touched my mouth and the Lord said unto me behold I have put my words in thy mouth.

I want to speak God's words Here is what Jesus said about God's words the words that I speak unto you.

It is astonishing that God is always the 1 making the first move.

When Adam sinned, God made the first move.

When Cain killed Abel, God made the first move.

He's always the 1 because a carnal person cannot make the first move towards God.
