-
We've gone through a lot of scriptures about this showing
-
you and there's a lot more. So, not wanting to
-
wear out your patients, you know, I've just I've highlighted
-
a bunch and then if you have more questions, I
-
would love it if you would seek me out more.
-
And we also sell a book in the lobby called
-
Victorious Eschatology, so that would be a good book for
-
some of you to read. So here this we call
-
this or the Lord called this right the Kingdom of Heaven.
-
So it was also called the Kingdom of God. All right,
-
so when we you know, when we think about the
-
Kingdom of Heaven or the Kingdom of God, so this
-
is also called the days of the New Creation, okay.
-
And Peter said it's called a new Heaven and a
-
new Earth. And we've talked a little bit. I don't
-
have all day with you, but we've talked a little
-
bit about why Peter called it a new heaven and
-
a new Earth. And today I want to talk a
-
little bit more about that because I'm what I'm trying
-
to do a little bit is I'm trying to prove
-
to you that we can be assured that this is
-
the days of a new creation, new Heaven, and a
-
new Earth, Kingdom of Heaven, Kingdom of God. We can
-
be assured of that because of scripture and because of
-
everything that took place with this resurrection and with him
-
ascending to represent us at the right hand of the Father.
-
So remember the passage in Hebrews. He ever lives to
-
represent us, to be our intercessor, he ever lives to
-
be our intercessor, he represents us before the Father. He
-
represents And I want us to keep focused on that.
-
You were a bunch of ugly heathens. I added the
-
word ugly for emphasis, strong emphasis. But you okay, me too.
-
We were all a bunch of gentile heathens. There are
-
very few Hebrews in the room today. And so we
-
were outside of the promises of God. We were outside
-
of the covenant of God. And all of us came
-
from reprobate nations of rebellion. So if you are Swedish
-
or Norwegian, or English or Irish, or if you are
-
from the Gauls, the Danes, if you are from you know,
-
we could name any nation right any nation around the world.
-
We all came from these reprobate heathen nations. And we
-
didn't know God, and we weren't a part of Israel,
-
and we weren't a part of what God was doing.
-
But God was promising through Abraham. He made Abraham the
-
air of the world, and he was promising through Abraham
-
that he would bring every nation back together. And the
-
beginning of that was the pouring out of the spirit.
-
So like right here, right, So here's the cross. God
-
didn't waste any time. Fifty days after Passover, he pours
-
out his spirit and he does a reverse of Babel.
-
A reverse of Babel happened fifty days after Passover, and
-
there was somebody there from every nation. The Bible says,
-
somebody was there from every nation, and he deposited the
-
seed of the Gospel in them, and three thousand came
-
to the Lord that day. Four thousand came to the
-
Lord a few days later. Is it a little too loud?
-
There's a little ring to it. I think it's just
-
a hair too loud maybe, But they're what they're doing.
-
They're honoring me and they're blessing me, so they know.
-
I like it loud because that way I talk soft.
-
If they turn it down, I start hollering. It's a
-
subconscious just pray for me. I need healing. I receive
-
it right now. So in fifty days later he does
-
a reverse of Babel, and then thousands are coming to
-
the Lord. Then his person acution rises. What happens. They
-
are dispersed back to their nations, and so amazing things happen.
-
And it wasn't the televangelist that were the superstars, you know,
-
people from Day Star or TBN or people nothing like that.
-
It wasn't the televangelist the superstars. It was the common
-
ordinary believer. Like Philip goes to Samaria and begins to
-
work signs and wonders because from this moment until the end,
-
you have been ordained to work signs and wonders. Greater
-
works will you do? Because he goes to the Father
-
and he's sent the Holy Spirit. Greater works will you do?
-
I'm just thinking today that it's bad for me to
-
talk this way because because that's the end of the sermon.
-
So I'm giving you a little view into the end
-
of the sermon. But I was thinking today, you know,
-
Bill Johnson testifies that when they first started going after
-
this kind of thing at Bethel, that people started leaving
-
the church in droves. And also part of what happened
-
is is they begin to go after this thing, they
-
had more lack of results than they had results. Randy
-
Clark testifies from Global Awakening. Randy Clark testifies that more
-
people got sick after he prayed than got sick when
-
he prayed. You know, it's like they would get worse
-
instead of better when he would pray for them because
-
he began to believe that God would do miracles through him. Right,
-
And so this is but part of what we're trying
-
to say is that and part of what I'm trying
-
to get at all the way through this is God
-
has given us permission to press in. God has given
-
us permission to taste of heaven. God has given us
-
permission to bring Heaven to earth. This is God is
-
God's in favor of this. We're not trying to talk
-
God into something. God is trying to talk us into
-
believing and then partnering with him to see this happen.
-
Is that all right? So we're talking about, you know,
-
some of the blessings of this kingdom and what are
-
the you know, whether the hallmark blessings of this kingdom? Uh,
-
And we have to realize that this kingdom is, this
-
is this is huge, a huge thing, and we have
-
to realize that this, this Kingdom of Heaven, Kingdom of God,
-
it is not meant to be ethereal only. It's not
-
it's not something in the sky in the sweet by
-
and by, it's not something that we just taste of
-
in our heart. But it has no practical application or
-
no no relevance to everyday living. Now, that's unfortunately what religion,
-
and I'm picking on religion just generically, can I do that.
-
What religion has been telling us for hundreds, if not
-
longer of years, is that the Kingdom of Heaven is
-
a spiritual kingdom, spiritual only that we enter into the
-
Kingdom of Heaven. And they've used various texts like Jesus
-
at the Cross, he didn't fight, and so they were
-
questioning him why he didn't fight, and he said, my
-
kingdom is not of this world. If it were of
-
this world, my disciples and I we'd put up a fight, right,
-
But it's not this world. Because they were expecting the disciples,
-
others were expecting the Messiah to be an earthly king,
-
but an earthly king would have a lifespan an earthly
-
king would have a period of rule, but then their
-
rule could fade. So they didn't understand something about the Messiah.
-
They didn't understand that his kingdom it wasn't of the earth.
-
But that doesn't mean it wasn't going to influence the earth. Likewise,
-
when we hear that this world is not our home,
-
we've crafted these religious thoughts. Oh, if this world is
-
not our home and we're just passing through, then we
-
we're not really called to engage with the world. Now,
-
that doesn't mean we don't engage with witnessing. You know,
-
we engage by sharing our faith and leading other people
-
to the Lord, so they too will not make this
-
world their home. This is wrong thinking. This is wrong thinking.
-
You are an heir of the earth. You actually are
-
an heir of the earth. That God's giving He's not
-
giving the earth to the devil. He's not giving the
-
earth to the wicked. He's not giving the earth to
-
the unrighteous. When this whole thing wraps up on the
-
last Day, where's he coming back to Oh hm, he's
-
coming back to the earth, and he's bringing all the
-
saints with him. He's restoring the earth. This whole thing
-
is about restoring the earth. This whole thing is about
-
spreading Eden all over the earth. So when we have
-
this religious I call it religious religious thinking that the
-
earth is not important, the world is not important. We're
-
missing something, we're missing that God has made you the
-
error of the earth. Now, how has God made you
-
the heir of the earth because you're a joint heir
-
with Jesus. When the Bible says that Jesus is the
-
heir of the promise made to Abraham. There's two promises
-
made to Abraham. One is the promise of the spirit.
-
The promise of the spirit was made to Abraham. Well,
-
I don't think Jesus needed the promise of the spirit.
-
Jesus had the spirit without measure. So that wouldn't be
-
the promise he would be inheriting in his victory, or
-
his manhood, his humanity, in his righteousness, in his victory
-
over the enemy. That wouldn't be. That wouldn't be the
-
thing he's receiving. What he's receiving is the earth. The
-
promise in Romans four thirteen. Let's say, if we have
-
it Romans for thirteen. Romans for thirteen tells us that
-
Abraham was promised the earth or the world. This is
-
what he was promised. So it was not through the
-
law that Abraham and his offspring received the promise that
-
he would be the heir of the world. So he
-
was promised two things. He was promised the spirit, but
-
he was also promised the world. But it was through
-
the righteousness that comes by faith. Now the Bible tells us,
-
let's go to Galicians three twenty nine. Galatians three twenty nine.
-
If we haven't. If you belong to Christ, then you
-
are Abraham's seed and heirs according to the promise. Then
-
let's go to Romans eight seventeen. If we have it now,
-
if we are children, then we are heirs, heirs of
-
God and co heirs with Christ. If indeed we share
-
in his sufferings in order that we may also share
-
in his glory. Now the suffering there, we talked about
-
that a few weeks ago. It's the suffering of presenting
-
ourselves as dead to the sinful nature into who we
-
used to be and are entering into identification with him.
-
But look at this, we have become heirs of the world.
-
We've become heirs with Abraham of the world. So we
-
do care about the world. And though the kingdom is
-
entered into spiritually, the impact of the Kingdom is tangible.
-
It's a tangible impact, and we influence the world in
-
a tangible way, receiving leadership, receiving direction, receiving insight, receiving
-
wisdom from above, receiving revelation from above. So we become
-
those who are now edonizing the world. We become those
-
who are expressing the government of God, the wisdom of God,
-
the power of God, the glory of God, all of
-
this in the world, everywhere we go, so that the
-
world is edonized, so that the prayer Jesus told us
-
to pray, Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on
-
earth as it is in heaven. So the victim that
-
Jesus wrought for us, the victory that actually exalted him
-
to the heavenly place, that victory now is resounding in him,
-
the last atom in the heavens. But He's ordained that
-
it resounds in us and through us, because that's the
-
way everything started. In the beginning, Eden was a replica
-
of Heaven, including the Mountain of the Lord, including the gold,
-
including the precious stones, including the fire, include every aspect.
-
Eden was an expression of heaven on earth, and God
-
is rebuilding that in this season. This is what God's
-
in the mood to do. God is already in the
-
mood to do this right now. You don't have to
-
talk him into it. You don't have to wake up
-
and say, oh, Father, just make today like heaven. He's
-
waking you up, right, And when you wake up, he
-
was watching. He's watching right, And then you open your eyes. Wow.
-
And then he's like hoping that, hoping that you will
-
lean in and partner with him right to bring heaven
-
to earth. So we talked a little bit about some
-
of these blessings. I want to I want to dive
-
into some of those because I gave you a list
-
of some of these blessings that are like, these are
-
like the hallmark of these are the hallmark of heaven
-
on earth. He's made us friends, right, He's made his friends,
-
so friends know what the Father's up to. He's delivered
-
us out of darkness. Come on, say that one with me.
-
He's delivered us out of darkness. He has made us
-
to be a new creation. We actually are a We
-
actually are a new creation. So that fits the new
-
creation period because he's actually made us to be a
-
new creation. Right, do you believe that he's bestowed upon
-
us the glory of the Godhead. We read out of
-
John seventeen. He's bestowed upon us the glory of the Godhead.
-
Is that amazing and with unveiled face, with unveiled face
-
Tewo Corinthians three and four. He says that the glory
-
of the New Creation is beyond the glory of Moses,
-
so much so that the glory of Moses appears to
-
be dead, like that glory is so different. The glory
-
of the New Creation is so much more vastly glorious.
-
He actually said that these this this was actually these
-
were letters of death or tablets of death, because what
-
they did is the identified how dead you are. They
-
identified how corrupt you are. They identified how corrupt all
-
the gentiles were. But these are letters of life, and
-
he writes the letters of life on our heart. So
-
this only brought the understanding that we were corrupt. This
-
brings the understanding that we've been recreated in the righteousness,
-
into glory, into life. So that's why our faces can
-
shine with glory, because He's redeemed us and delivered us
-
out of our Gentile Heathen nations. Blessing number five was
-
He's anointed us with the oil of Joy. And there
-
was a lot of stuff in that passage that I
-
read you about the oil of joy, and that was
-
out of Isaiah. Number six. He's conquered the power of
-
death for us, because Satan held the power of death
-
ever since Adam's fall until the resurrection. Satan held the
-
power of death, and he held the righteous and the
-
wicked in hell in Hades in sheie Old number seven.
-
He's delivered this out of Sheieol. So we're delivered out
-
of Siel. That one kind of goes with that. Out
-
of Sheiel she All. Okay, that's the bowels of the earth.
-
That's the that's Hades, death held the grave. Number eight,
-
he's conquered the curse. How many of you that sounds
-
like something? Had he ever conquered the curse before? This
-
is interesting. He's conquered the curse for us Colossians chapter two,
-
And he did this for gentiles Colossians chapter two. Conquered
-
the curse. When you were dead in your sins and
-
the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you Colossians heathens,
-
ugly heathens alive with Christ. He forgave us all of
-
our sins, having can the charge of our legal indebtedness,
-
which stood against us and condemned us. He's taken it
-
out of the way, nailing it to the cross, and
-
having disarmed powers and authorities. Remember I've been talking to
-
you about how every gentile nation was under principalities, powers,
-
rulers of darkness. These God had given these lesser gods,
-
these Elohim. He had given them authority over the nations
-
because of the rebellion of the people. Honoring the rebellion
-
of the people, he kept Jacob only for himself Deuteronomy
-
four nineteen Deuteronomy thirty two, eight and nine. He kept
-
Jacob only for himself, Israel, I have kept for myself.
-
Now he's saying that God disarmed these powers and authorities.
-
We don't need to tremble at them. You don't need
-
to tremble at powers, principalities, authorities, rulers of darkness. God
-
has put all of them under our feet. Having disarmed
-
the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them,
-
triumphing over them by the cross. This was him overcoming
-
the curse on our behalf overcoming, you're still hear the curse.
-
And of course Galatians three point thirteen. Christ redeemed us
-
from the curse of the law having become a curse
-
for us Blessing number nine. He created a new race
-
of people who were born in the spirit and who
-
reign on the earth over these former principalities and powers.
-
So he's actually not only delivered us from them, but
-
he's actually empowered us to reign over them. Now, if
-
you're just eating food and going through live checking in
-
to McDonald's, don't go there. Oh boy, I went yesterday
-
so bad if you're just checking in, if you're just
-
running around and do it. I had all the grandkids.
-
We went to the monster trucks just so bad. I
-
think they've ruined McDonald's. But anyway, as if it needed
-
ruin more. Mister Kroc, if you're watching, God bless you
-
forgive me forgiving think about this though. It's not just
-
that we've been delivered from their power, which was a
-
blinding power, which was a bondage power of captivity power,
-
but we've also been empowered to rule over them. If
-
we aren't ruling over them, if we're just going through
-
life punching the clock and we're not ruling over them.
-
That means actually, you've now been ordained to be the
-
bass of demon's spirits. That's why when Jesus showed up
-
at the shore of the you know, the gatherin's there,
-
and you know he show he shows up, the demons
-
are already talking to him from the shore. You know,
-
please don't judge us before our time. What have we
-
to do with you? Jesus? Are you going to what
-
are you going to have? Mercy? Honesus Jesus. Now you
-
can't always hear the spirit realm talking, but I want
-
to encourage you that as you rise up in who
-
you really are and who you've been made to be,
-
this is what begins to happen, is that that your
-
lordship over them. You've been made a lord, You've been
-
enabled to reign. Romans five seventeen says, because of this
-
abundance of grace that we've received, we reign in life. Well,
-
I don't need to rain over the things I already
-
have rain over. I don't need to rain over my
-
plate or my fork. Well maybe I do. I don't
-
need to rain over my TV clicker. I've been made
-
to rain over these that used to rain over me,
-
and that rained over darkness, and so we now reign
-
over them. Everybody say rain. So this, this goes on.
-
There's more and more and more of this. But what
-
I want you to see, especially today, what I want
-
you to see is that you have so much to
-
do with this. Chelsea. Could you pull up Joshua one
-
six through eight just for fun? Could you add that in?
-
You and I have so much to do with this.
-
Let me read Ephesian chapter one. See what's going on
-
is that, for one thing, we've been influenced greatly by
-
Calvin and Augustine, and they've told us that if God
-
is in a good mood, then God will do if
-
God will do what he's in a mood to do,
-
and if he's not in a mood to do it,
-
then we have to labor to talk him into that mood.
-
But what I'm trying to show you is that God
-
was already in a good mood, and God ordained for
-
an increasing kingdom of glory and light and illumination. And
-
what happens is because we come under these religious thoughts
-
or doctrines of demons, or these influences we're waiting on
-
God when God's waiting on us. We're waiting on God
-
for more healing, or more of a touch, or more
-
an anointing, or more revival or more harvest. We're waiting
-
on God when God wants us to partner with Him
-
with the fullness of faith. Ephesians one eighteen. Listen to
-
this one. I pray that the this is Paul writing
-
to the church at Ephesus formerly homely Heathens. I pray
-
that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so
-
that you will know what is the hope of his calling. Oh,
-
he's called you, Ephesians. He has called you. What are
-
the riches of his glory, the glory of his inheritance
-
in the saints? And what is the surpassing greatness of
-
his power toward us who believe these? All three of
-
these that he's just mentioned are in accordance with the
-
working of the strength of his mind, which he brought
-
about in Christ when he raised him from the dead
-
and seated him at the right hand is right hand
-
in heavenly places, far above all rule, authority, power, and dominion,
-
and every name that is named, not only in this age,
-
but also in the one to come, and he put
-
all things Now this age he's writing right here. He
-
wrote this right here, and he's looking into the one
-
to come, far above all rule, power, dominion, every name
-
that is named, not only in this age, but also
-
in the one to come. And he put all things
-
in subjection under his feet and gave him as head
-
over all things to the Church, which is his body.
-
So Father put all things in subjection under Jesus gave
-
him as head over us the Church. We are his body,
-
the fullness of him, the what the fullness of him.
-
That's what it says. Did we have it up there?
-
I don't know if we had it up there. I want
-
you to see it. The fullness of him head over
-
all things to the Church, which is his body, the
-
fullness of him who fills, He fills all in all,
-
He fills us. And we are the fullness of him.
-
Think about that, because we're constantly asking to be filled,
-
and we're constantly wishing we could be the fullness. But
-
he's already declared, in a good mood toward us that
-
we are the fullness. And then he's already showered on
-
us the fullness. He's showering on us the fullness. So
-
the problem can't be a God problem that we don't
-
have the fullness. The problem has to be an us problem.
-
The problem has to be an intimacy problem, a fellowship problem,
-
a distraction problem, a unity problem, a faith problem. And
-
this is part of one of the things I want
-
you to see is that one doctrine is well, if
-
God wanted more to show up, he would be doing it,
-
and since he's not doing it, he must not want it.
-
But another one is well, that's out here in the millennium.
-
When we get out here, then we'll have the fullness.
-
But these aren't right doctrines. The full the fullness started
-
right here in these new days of the new creation.
-
And this is what he longs for. He longs for
-
us to stir up. He longs for us to awaken.
-
He longs for us to partner with him in the
-
fullness that stands morning. Pastor Todd was here over the
-
weekend and he was telling them about their experience a
-
little bit. Some of you were here, some of you weren't.
-
I want to linger on that for a minute. They're
-
in Dawson, Georgia, Dawson Dawson, Dawsonville is it Dawsonville, Georgia,
-
sixty miles north of Atlanta, suburb out here, little town
-
of thirty five hundred people. Eight and a half years
-
he served at his church, like serving in a wilderness, right,
-
so they'd ask him to come and be the pastor.
-
And I think they had pastoral failure or something happened there,
-
and so they asked him to come be the pastor.
-
And after eight and a half years he was ready
-
to resign. He was done, just a typical eight and
-
a half years of a church wilderness. And but instead
-
of resigning, they were moved upon by a word that
-
they should pray. So they begin to see God instead,
-
and they began to really rally, you know, in seeking God.
-
And they went into a twenty twenty one days of fasting.
-
Then the Lord showed him in through this that if
-
he could gather one hundred and fifty people to begin
-
to pray, that God would begin to like there would
-
be critical mass. There's actually principles Newton's law physics. They
-
actually describe principles that work not only in the natural realm,
-
but they work in the spirit realm as well. Critical
-
mass is a real thing with a congregation of people
-
a body, even in a community. Critical mass is a
-
real thing. And so he said that they saw the
-
church begin to change as they got fifty people together
-
who would pray every week and begin to do warfare
-
and begin to believe and begin to go after things
-
in God and begin to toss out maybe God doesn't
-
want to do it, Maybe this isn't God's season, maybe
-
this isn't a time for revival. They began to toss
-
out these religious doctrines that had harmed them and just
-
began to obey God. Just we're going to run after God.
-
When they got to fifty, the church changed. Everything began
-
to shift, and they begin to see some signs and
-
wonders and miracles, and they begin to get some critical mass.
-
They kept going. When they got to seventy five, it
-
shifted more. When they got to one hundred, they started
-
seeing cancer conquered and delivered people like. Things started shifting
-
in a greater way. And this kingdom that's we think
-
of it as just heavenly and ethereal, it began to
-
manifest in the natural realm in very powerful ways. When
-
they got to one hundred and fifty, then these very
-
hard cases started appearing. People started coming right. But God
-
was meeting the need. Dementia, paralysis, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's, all
-
these diseases started getting conquered and amazing things started happening
-
as they hid one hundred and fifty who would pray.
-
And it just speaks, It speaks to so much of
-
what Matthew said. Matthew talked about the Kingdom of Heaven
-
thirty two times he talks about it, but one of
-
our favorite here is Matthew sixteen nineteen. I'm going to
-
give you the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven. This
-
is what he said. Jesus said, I'm giving you the
-
keys to the Kingdom of Heaven. And if you will
-
bind what he's bound, then it shall be bound. And
-
if you will loose what he has loosed, it shall
-
be loosed. Huge implications, right, Huge implications, meaning if we
-
aren't partnering with him in the binding and the loosing,
-
even though he's won a victory for us, he's requiring
-
our faith the partner with him so that the victory
-
comes into our realm, so that we begin to taste
-
of it and we begin to see it, and it
-
begins to manifest And I was just thinking of Joshua
-
this morning, and I'll close with this, Joshua one, were
-
you able to get there? Joshua one and courageous? This
-
is the Lord's word over you today, ordinary believer, you
-
are like Philip. You don't need a tb in certification.
-
You have a powerful anointing. You don't need a day
-
star television show. You are the superstars of the Kingdom
-
of God. You are the Phillips. And everywhere you go
-
you carry the glory of the Kingdom. We carry the
-
glory and the power of the Kingdom. And so as
-
it was with Joshua, so it is with us. God's
-
already predetermined. This is an increase of kingdom, and the
-
Kingdom of Heaven is going to invade the earth with
-
some generation and with some person. But he's saying over
-
you like a Joshua today, He's saying, over you, be
-
strong and courageous. Only say what I've told you to say.
-
Only do what I've told you to do. Don't let
-
another word in your mind, don't let another word in
-
your mouth, because then you will make your way prosperous.
-
How can I make my way prosperous and successful. Who
-
am I like? I'm somebody special? I can make my
-
way prosperous and successful because God already pre determined. It's
-
promised land season. God pre determined that over Joshua. So
-
he says, you will make your way prosper and successful,
-
because I've already determined you're going in. So agree with me,
-
Agree with me, Agree with me. Don't let another thought
-
in your mind, don't let another word in your mouth,
-
but only agree with me. Be strong and courage us,
-
and then you will go in. And then, and do
-
not turn what the enemy's trying to get us to do.
-
He's trying to get the church do. He's trying to
-
get you to do. He's trying to get this generation.
-
Look at that report, look at this report. Turn away,
-
don't turn away from what God's already determined and anointed
-
you with and enabled you to be, and poured out
-
upon you in this new season. And then you will
-
make your way prosperous and successful. Amen. Come on, let's
-
give him a thank offering this morning. Holy Spirit, You're
-
so good. You're so good. We bless you, we receive
-
of you, we revel in you, We we are encouraged
-
in you. Come on, do this with me, Father. I
-
agree right now to shed the doubt and the unbelief,
-
the shed the religious influence that has limited my faith,
-
that's kept me from going in, that's turned me to
-
the left or the right, that's argued against the miraculous
-
and argued against your increasing kingdom in the earth. I
-
turn away from it, and I am bracefully who you've
-
made me to be in Jesus' name. And everybody said, hey, man,
-
God bless your church. Let's worship as we go. Let's
-
worship as we go.
