Place Everything in God's Hands

I recently preached for a week-end at an amazing church in Singapore, Eternal Life Assembly.  The fantastic Lead Pastor is Bob Lum who also serves as the Assistant General Superintendent of the the Singapore Assemblies of God.  This is the Sunday morning service.  Eternal Life Assembly is celebrating it's 49th year which means they are completing 7 cycles of 7 years.  We call this a "Sabbath's Sabbath!"  And so this year for them has to do with Sabbath Rest and this sermon describes true rest not as sleeping or relaxing, but as placing everything in the hands of God.  The first 45 minutes are the sermon and the rest of the video is a time of response and worship.  The intro is by Pastor Bob and the worship at the end is with the mightily anointed Worship Pastor Daphne Lau on keyboards.  

In addition to the main text of  Hebrews 4, I also tie in the stories of Jericho and of the Loaves and Fish as examples of resting in Jesus.  Enjoy!
