Looking for something - Bro Jeremy Howell 12-31-2023

Or if you can locate one on the book rack at the back of the

pewe which you pull it out. Let's look at the Book of Malachi.

May I direct your attention to the third chapter. We will be reading versus

numbers one through three. Malachi chapter number three. May I direct your attention

to Versus one through three. It's so good to have our visitors here this

morning, each and every one of you. Thank you for choosing to be

with us today. We're just delighted that you're here. Brother Nathaniel, if

you'll read our code text here, momentarily turn with me to the Book of

John chapter number eighteen. We will be reading verses seven through nine, Brother

Jesse, Saint Luke's Gospel chapter number seven, Versus number twenty two and twenty

three. For you note takers, our golden text is Malachi chapter number three,

Versus number one through three. Brother Nathaniel, we will be reading a

code text John eighteen seven through nine. Brother Jesse will be reading another co

text, Luke chapter number seven twenty two and twenty three. If you're happy

and you know it's say amen, Brother Nathaniel, when you read that,

please, Brother John eighteen seven through nine, then asked. He then asked,

he them again, who seeks you? They said, Jesus of Nazareth.

Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he. If therefore

you seek me, let these go their way, that to say might be

fulfilled which you spake of them, which thou gavest me. Have I lost

none? I have? Have I lost? Amen, Brother Jesse Luke Chapter

number seven, Verses number twenty two and twenty three. Then Jesus, answering

said, up to them, go your way, and tell John what things

you have seen and heard. Now that the blind see, the lame walk,

the lepers are cleansed the death. Here the dead are raising to the

poor, the gospel has preached. And blessed is he whosoever shall not be

offended in me. All right now, remember these code texts as I'm preaching.

Okay, this man John, the brother Jesse just read about, he

was looking for something, looking for something that he had already found, something

he had already looked at, something his hands had already handled, someone that

was very close to him, in fact, it was a cousin. But

here he is questioning. Here he is looking for something, and our golden

text you'll notice that there was a prophecy given concerning this very man John.

So let's stand for the reading of our golden text to make God help us

to get a hold of whatever it is. The Spirit of God is saying

to this group of people this morning, Behold, I will send my messenger,

and he shall prepare the way before me. That messenger is not other

than John the Baptist, coming forth in the spirit of Elijah. Behold,

I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me.

And the Lord whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even

the messenger of the Covenant, whom ye delight in. Behold, he shall

come, Saith, the Lord of Host. But who may abide the day

of his coming, and who shall stand when he appearth where he's like a

refiner's fire and like fuller soap, And he shall sit as a refiner and

purifier of silver. And he shall purify the sons of Levi and purge them

as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord and offering in

righteousness. Can we pray Heaven the Father, We thank you so much for

the opportunity to be in the house of the Lord. I Thank you for

every person is in this building this morning. Most importantly, we thank you

for the unseen guest. Thank you for the holy ghost that is here.

Lord, you promised an appearance, and every sibling where two or three are

gathered together in your name, there you are in I remiss. I thank

you to this. I pray that you would have knowed this, thy servants

said of God at my mouth, and help me to say only those things

that you would have me to say, nothing more or less, and not

the ears of this thy people, that they might hear what the spirit saith

under the church this morning, not of my words, but of your words.

I pray God, let these sings go below the shoulders. Let them

get into that heart, soul, spirit, and all show the mind that's

above the shoulders. I prayed God, you'd helped us this morning to not

be hearers only, but to heed the truth of the word of God.

We give you the praise and the glory and all the honor it. May

we depart this place joyfully and not sorrowfully. In Jesus' name in the church

said Amen, as you're being seated, look at your neighbor and say,

hey, neighbor, did you come looking for something? Did you come looking

for something? Again? Looking at our golden text, the third chapter of

the Book of Malachi and the first verse, Let's pull out some words and

a sentence that is in that first verse. It says, and the Lord

whom ye seek shall suddenly come to his temple. If you're a note taker,

underline this and the Lord whom ye seek. Our text is found in

an Old Testament book of the Holy Bible. The title bears the name of

its author. There is no question. In the Bible. Students find that

the prophet Malachi was a messenger of the Lord. Undoubtedly he was a mouthpiece

for the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. I don't know exactly

at the time of his calling that he was excited about that calling. We

know that Apostle Paul, when he received his heavenly calling, he was hesitant

and reluctant to embrace it. In fact, the spirit of God chided him

many times. We will remember that the Lord himself spoke to the Apostle Paul

prior of his conversion and said, it is hard for you to kick against

the Prince. We know that the convicting power of God was present in the

life of the apostle Paul prior to his conversion, and I thank God that

he was obedient to that heavenly calling. Again, to use his words,

he was obedient to that heavenly calling. There's no doubt, hey, brother

Danny says to Tracy. Wow, that's awesome. Good to see y'all.

Y'all made there. That's wonderful. And so Malachi, at some point he

was obedient to the heavenly calling. I thank God for people that are obedient

to the word of the Lord. I'm thankful that the word of the Lord

does come him to his congregation through the blessed book. We call the Bible

sixty six books, the Divine Library, the Sacred rit I'm thankful that the

Lord has spoken to his people through his word. Not only has the Lord

spoken to his people through his word, but he has spoken to his people

through his messengers. This man Malachi was such a messenger. And I'm so

thankful that even though some consider him to be a minor prophet due to the

brevity of his writings, we look at four chapters in this book of the

Bible, and we consider him to be somebody that didn't have a lot to

say. But I feel like every word that this man spoke, and every

word that was written down was God breathed and God inspired. And this man

was obedient, Brother Nathaniel, and he decided, Yes, Lord, I

will be the mailman or the messenger that delivers a message to my people that

they can either accept or reject. How many people in this building this morning

are guilty of not opening some letters and reading what has written on the paper

therein. There's several people in this building that will admit to that that because

of the name of the sender or the address from which it came, you

did not want to open it. You rejected it. I'm sure that this

man Melanchi was greatly hesitant to receive and answer this call because he knew the

assignment would be cruelty. He knew that it would be very toolsome to be

able to preach to his own people since the how I remember when the Lord

first called me to minister. One of the hesitations that I had was the

fact that God would require me to preach to friends, family, and foe.

I remember being a little bit reluctant to answer the call because I didn't

know how the mail was going to be received. And I know that this

man Malachi was just a mere mortal just like you and I are. He

was fashion out of the dust of the ground. And he was somebody that

had feelings just like you and I have. He is somebody at this time

that feels like everybody's against him. You can tell after the service this morning,

go and read this book of the Bible. You can tell that this

man was just chalk full of emotion. You could tell that this man was

like the prophet Jeremiah. He had a broken heart because he had a message

for a broken people that refused to be healed. We find that this man,

the great Messenger, allowed himself to be used to the Lord. If

you look at the first verse of the first chapter, you will see the

reason for his obedience to the voice and the call of the Lord. The

Bible said the burden of the word of the Lord. So he had the

words of the Lord away Heaven on his mind and heart. In other words,

when he received a letter from God, he opened it and answered it,

and he received the burden. But that yoke that we hooked to,

that we're yoke too. It is easy, it is light. But I

believe this man had a lot of sleepless nights, brother Nathaniel, as he

had that burden that was upon his heart of what he was to deliver foodly

to his people. We think about this man's sister, Howell. He's got

a message from the Lord. It's not a message from the pastor or the

Sunday school teacher, or the apostle or the bishop. It is a message

from the Lord, and it has to reach the intended recipients. The Israelites

are the recipients of this message. If you'll look in the latter part of

that verse, you'll notice that Malachi tells them this comes from the Lord,

and this message is not for the Gentiles. This message is not for the

amal Kites or the Amborites of the Philistines' message is for Israel from the Lord.

It's for my brother, it's from my sister, it's from my near

kins. But it's for that one that I don't really want to offend.

I don't want this to separate father from son and mother and daughter. And

you know, Jesus told us that that would happen sometimes at this sword that

is sharp, this sharp sword, sometimes it will divide families, it will

divide people. And Malachi knew that this very thing was going to happen.

But because of the bird and he preached, he knew that there had to

be somebody that was looking for somebody, some seeker of truth. I remember

when the Lord saved me in October of nineteen ninety three, thirty years ago.

I was one of that seemed happy, that everybody always had a smile

on my face. I don't know that I had an enemy in the world,

but I remember being miserable inside. I remember being religious for not having

a relationship with the Lord. And I remember going to service after service and

attending service regularly. In fact, there were times that I had a perfect

attendance record for years. I didn't miss a scene, go Sunday school lesson

the little thing that they gave me to wear, Brother Jesse, the little

award reward, whatever you call that. The thing just got longer and longer

and longer and longer as we hung on there. The first year of attendants,

the second year of attendants, perfect record, third, fourth, fifth,

and six. But I was missing something. I remember. The thing

got all the way down to nine years of perfect attendance for Sunday School.

It just got longer and longer. But Sister Wood, the longer it got,

the more long, and I fell in my soul for something I was

missing. I want to preach to you a sermon titled looking for Something I

Feel like the Holy Ghost titled this sermon. I was just going about mind

of my own business. It seemed like I heard a whisper from heaven.

The Lord let me know there would be people in this building this morning that

are in search of something more than what they're having. I remember the night

of my genuine true conversion, when my life was forever changed. I knew

that I had found that that my soul had longed for it. I knew

that there was no longer any need to search for it. I had been

on a mission to search until I found him. And thank God, I

can say that I no longer have to say, hey, preacher, family,

friend, foe, whoever. I am in search of something. I

feel like this man Malachi, brother Nathaniel. He began to talk to the

people about the judgment of God that was pending because of their wilful disobedience and

neglect of keeping the law. But you'll also notice that at some point,

the Lord speaks through the prophet Malachi, and he says these words, the

words of the Lord, I have loved you. In the last book of

the Old Testament, Malachi the messenger writes these words that the Lord has spoken

into the heart Malachi three and six. For I am the Lord, I

change not. Therefore, ye sons of Jacob, are not consumed. It's

not that these people didn't deserve to be consumed by their adversaries. It's not

that these people did not deserve to be consumed by their Lord. They had

turned their backs on the Lord. As we look in this book of the

Bible, we see that these people had become mechanical in their worship. Their

services had only become a routine, just something they did, just a part

of their lives, almost like a tiny wart on somebody's finger. They were

just there, not meaning any harm, but just like a parasite, just

there, like a tick on the dog, just there. You see.

That's how a lot of people are. They come to church and their present

when the roll call is given, they say prayersident I'm here, But they

didn't find what they were in search of. I remember visiting churches, and

I remember walking out of the doors and saying there was nothing there for me.

But I remember that night I'm visited that little country church that was having

revived and set on that back beauty. There was something in there that I've

been searching for. I want you to know when I came to God,

I didn't come with a list of things that he had to do to make

me comfortable with his identity. I came in there and embraced him for exactly

the way he presented himself. I loved him. He was all together lovely.

You see, these people, they were offering blemest animals unto the Lord.

Their sacrifices weren't really sacrifices by any different definition of the word. The

night that I got saved in October of nineteen ninety three, I remember saying,

Lord, I don't know what it is you need to do inside of

me, what kind of work must take place, But I am sick and

tired of the way that I've been living in. I had only missed a

handful of services in my entire life. I had played the piano has to

acquire, saying I've seen people get in the spirit, seen God bless him

mighty way. But there was an emptiness in my soul, and cannot tell

you as long as God is not in the throng room of your soul and

raining Supreme, there is nothing in this world that will ever feel that God

size void in your soul. You can bring those operings that are blimished and

try your best to lift up holy hands, but you know you cannot do

that without graft and doubt. And because you feel guilty, you feel ashamed

because you know those are unholy hands, and you know that is a blimesh

offering. Come home now. You see these people were holding back on their

tithing at this time. They were supposed to tithe painfully, they understood that,

but they refused to do what they knew they needed to do. How

many of you know that still rings true today? For any child of the

words of the Bible said he that know it to be good and do it

did not to him? It is sin. There's people today doing more than

holding back. They're tithe, and they're holding back, they're tied. They're

holding back so many things from God. I think about how many people have

with help from the Lord, and they do not expect there to be any

consequences for holding back from the Lord. They could complain about how they were

suffering at the hands up their adversaries, as the iron fist of their adversaries

put to them the powder. They could complain about all of this that was

taking place to them, How could this be happening to me? After all,

we are that specially chosen people, the nation of Israem. How could

all of this be happening to me? Can I tell you it does not

matter if you're the preacher's son or the drunk or son. God is angry

with the sins of the wicked. Every day they were complaining that the wicked

people, the pagans, the gentiles were prospering. As you read this book

of the Bible, you see that they were doing wrong and trying to get

by with doing wrong. They were trying very hard to be blessed in their

wrong doing. They were trying very hard to gain while they were withholding.

They were doing wrong and trying to get the true people of God to believe

that they were doing right. I want you to know here this forty that

you cannot do wrong and get by, no matter how hard you try.

And even though they were doing all of this blatantly disbey the Lord, transgressing

his commandments, breaking his laws day in and day out, hour in an

hour out time, again repeatedly offending the Lord. The Lord said, I

want you to know I have loved you. Malacho told his people that you

have wearied the Lord with your words. I mean they were talking the talk,

but they were not walking the walk. Malacho told them that you have

puzzled me and puzzled our people. I parapraise it. The people were puzzled

and wondered, how have we wearied the Lord with our words? And Melancho

said, the man splitted the way God gave it to me. When you

say everyone that doeth evil is good in the sight of the Lord, and

that he's okay with him, that God approves it, and that God delights

it, that God is weary with that, that's a false statement. That

is not true. And the new testing that we find word is written.

There will come another day, in another hour, and people will call bad

good, they will call evil good. And this was a problem. In

this day and hour. Not a cow was preaching against to them, And

we're preaching against to now. I'm born in every church, just a battle

on every block, but tell people that people have to sin a little bit

every day. I have found that to be an inaccurate statement. If somebody

is really in tuning, in touch with Jesus and his word, they will

love him enough not to offend him on a daily basis. Preacher, are

you saying that we can live with our sind I'm not said that anybody in

this building is perfect. I have not said that anybody in this building has

a rived. And I'm telling you we may not have arrived you, but

we're supposed to be striving against sin and doing everything that we can to please

their heart. We should not expect our children to please ourself more than God's

children are expecting to please him. I preach to you this morning, just

for a little while. I don't want to call good bad, and I

don't want to call bad good. I want to be a man of truth.

I want our nation to be a nation for the people a truth.

Why Because I believe the truth matters. And there's people they're searching for something,

and they're in search for the truth. They don't want to hear alive.

There's people saying creature to that preacher who killed me? The truth God

calls you to preach to me and no sugar toting preachers. I want you

to know we should not be giving the people for sugar cookies who are supposed

to be giving them men from heaven. I'll come on, now, I'm

killing you. This is a generation. I feel like it's being seeking by

being repeatedly lied to. I've got believe that there's somebody out there in search

of truth. I believe there's somebody laying over the bed. And now I

am saying, God, really, what is truth? Which rep be your

truth? To me? That had to be what was going on when now

a Kyle felt an answer from the Holy One. A good preacher freak street

preachers. Let me tell you something. Preach the word be instant in season

and out of season. I'm not saying be harder and be harsher that I'm

a saying, don't you lie to anybody who's give them the whole counsel.

Oh God, we holding nothing. He preachs from the front, a distressing

bent to the back of you. Give them nothing but the truth, to

the whole truth. So help you God. Oh I know it's Sunday morning.

This morning, the son of this stayed up the late last stop to

tarry with me just a little while. I want you to know the concept

the coach till of Malachi old fire, and the fuel to that fire wasn't

the truth. The truth was fockless needed to liberate people then, and the

truth is steal what was needed today to liberate people of this generation? How

tired of preachers printing alive? How tired of people being prench and an't light

me, preacher, prince the truth. It's doctor that these people didn't deserve

to be concerned. All we all deserve to die upon you that old rugg

across. We all deserved to be that sacrifice that was shoved up on the

cross. But instead Jesus shoved us away, and in the substitutionary sacrifice,

he gave himself on our behalf. I'm so thankful that he did. I'm

so thankful that it was a finished work. I'm thankful that he could take

that basin full of his blood, that God blood that flowed from Emmanuel's vein,

and presented to his father and say, Father, the sins of the

past, people of the present people, and the people of the future age,

I have made a sacrifice as to all inclusive sacrifice. But nowhere in

the Word of God can I find that even though Jesus brought the Covenant to

the field, nowhere can I find where he wanted it up and discarded it

as you would a piece of trash. Malakom was preaching that there's coming a

new Covenant. Anytime I study the ministry and the minister Jesus Christ, I

see, Brother Jeremiah, that this man did not loosen up on things as

people preaches the pose. I find that he taught and down on things.

A lot of people are overlooked that Jesus said, if a man looks upon

a woman to lust after her, he had committed adultery already in his heart.

Jesus spoke concerning being upset to your brother to the point you hate him,

you're guilty of murder. There's a lot of people feel like that Jesus

just done away with everything that he had recorded. God is the word,

Jesus, he is the word. Do you all believe that every word is

profitable? Every word is God breathed these words of Malachi with God breathe,

and he's preaching of these people, and he's telling them, yes, there

is a New Covenant coming you, Bible students and Bible readers present this morning.

You know Malkin is the last book of the Old Testament. And before

there would be a tax collector converted her and become Matthew rather the tanker.

Before he would write his gospel, there was a space of time, a

period of time the number of four one hundred years, where there was nothing

said. And in this filing here is sporty. What was it that people

were doing for four hundred years. I'll tell you what they were doing.

They were looking for the truth, and that they were searching for the truth.

God has not changed, and people have not changed. Her dearing is

particular time. I know that there's some things that they just never change.

I said, there's some things it never change. I believe that God dealt

with me that in this period of time they were seekers of truth. They

were not benefitted by the arrival of truth. They waited, still searching and

seeking after truth. But after four hundred years, his friend John the Baptist

the surfaces and he begins the preacher the course of truth is heard in the

willgans. After fall hundred years, he'll pass the new coming. He'll put

the new hope truly, and everybody that is a seeker of the truth will

embrace it. No, you, Bible students and Bible readers, know he

came unto us, old in his own yet again then received him. Not

but that didn't never see him to them gain in power to be called the

sons of God. Oh, there's power in the learn of talk, less

power in the tale that's been wading. Power and freedom here. That's truth.

They shall know the truth, and the truth shall set them frue,

make them free, liberate them. God's people shall be saved in their sin,

No, saved from their sin. Folks had got saved around the same

town I did. They had been delivered in a moment of drug addiction.

They had been delivered in a moment from all types of vices of sin,

in a moment. Creatures nowadays don't want to make that available impossible that I'm

telling you. One ounce of blood that pose from the fauble's leads is enough

to truths every sinner for their sinuil and filthy stains of their passion. I

know, I know, I know he saved me, and I know that

I perished something I had been looking for for seventeen years I saw him day

and nine my sleep was taken from me. I knew that had to be

more to this than what I was getting. I said, somebody in this

building this looking for something. You just kind of make sure when truth prisents

itself that you do not put the light out. You gotta make sure when

Jesus touching in your word and truth itself, it says, tamers, oh

listen, short and true and not told and told me only lad. It

won't be said without a doubt. Truth repeal itself. I said, Truth

repeal himself. These people didn't deserve anything but punishment. Ultimately, they deserve

death. Melanica said, but behold the lord whom you seek. I'm gonna

send that messenger, and he is going to prepare the way before me,

and the Lord whom you seek shall suddenly come to his temple. How many,

if you know the Bible said, no, he not that your body

is the temple of the holy ghast. I'm glad that some of you in

this building finally figured out that your body is not the temple of marijuana,

that your body is not the temple of our poor poods and of fetanohl of

Feedam. What do you say that method help me this morning? Tongue time,

metha Fedaman. I'm so thankful that you figured out your body is not

the temple for those kind of things. He will come suddenly to his temple.

Is it his temple or not? Or is it your temple? I

want to ask you that question again. Is that your temple or is it

his temple? Gonna be honest with yourself concerning that. And you realize that

all souls belong to God. I said, all souls belong to God.

And you realize that that concized her her for in your heart is to be

filled up but God himself and God's word. You will have been problem at

all aligning yourself with the teachings of Jesus. I said, you will have

no problem at all aligning yourself with the teachings of Jesus. I remember that

night after I found him myself. Lord, I will never struggle with you

again. I will never resist your spirit in it. I love what I

have found and I prayed on keeping it. I said, I love that

I found that mark. I been not playing on anybody taking her a life.

I have to get a lot number Papa on true. When it presents

it south, when it suddenly calls up to its temple, we all to

drive it by the prayer bosa and refuse to turn loon. So I'm telling

you this, people in this building, you need to turn the loos something

and you need to embrace something other table. Amen. I don't want to

hold you too long here this morning. But Malachi told these people, he

said, you've wearied the Lord? How do you weary God? The one

who never sleeps, He never slumbers and can't really ever get tired. How

do you weary God? By sinning, by grieving him, by breaking his

heart? And then worse than that, it's trying to justify the sin of

somebody else. That's what Malicho said right here, when ye say, everyone

that doeth evil is good in the sight of the Lord. Who needs you

God, who gave you the authority to decide what God approves are? Who

gave you you God? It makes you God, who gave you the authority

to change what is written in the word of God. That ain't my word,

That's God's word. It's by the by of Solmon that I preach it.

And the fear of God would keep me from prove it. I'll die,

fums, I said, I die for this part of com I travel

to the countries. It prints from my life was underlife. I tell the

you, I know what set me free. I know who set me free.

And when you're rented a lot, you will travel a stand of her,

You'll God, people, the man playing golf, the hold of good

sites truth. We need to remember who is the creature and who is the

creator. This isn't my word. If it was my word, you could

get up here and change it, and you could pollute and taint it to

suit your desires, to suit your terms of conditions. But this is not

conditional. I said, Oh, beis to God. It's my situation,

but it is fuck tonis off. Can't solve yourri trait that wen't felt like

her be containing a little beer that polluted a little bit PA for self,

astain and SELFI that's me I want you to do. This is God's worth,

it's Good's worth, it's the truth. And I was looking for and

I'm glad I've found it. I remember. I remember that now. I

said, God, I feel like I'm looking for you, but I have

figured it out. Sister, woodman. He can't looking for me. That's

what made a little more special. Preachers tried to put your fire out.

Say no, don't get too excited, don't take that for what it says.

Don't believe that. Hold on, now, let's see what Jay Verner

McGee said about it. Let's see what this was said about Listen. I

want to know what God said and when it comes to in terms of in

scripture, I want to look at the first mentioned principle and internal prescripture with

scripture. I love here crickas preach. It's quiet in your heart. I'm

telling you, we're not in this to please men. We're in this to

help them get the help that they need. And I am convinced there are

people in the streets of America, in the streets of the battle, there

are seekers of truth. How do you know that? Because I was won,

I was not pulled by their prince I said, and the three point

sermons and the little illustrations that come out. I'm a son of God,

trust I do better. I knew they did not have the power applied it

can't have a time, but they denied for power. I was looking for

something, in search of something little bit. I know, brother Jesse,

that's something with someone. Our text said, the Lord whom you seek,

the Lord whom you seek, yell, suddenly come to this temple. I

remember, brother Jesse. I'm your daddy, but I remember being that young

man, mind of my own business. Suddenly it was there. Suddenly I

realized, Behold now is accepting time. Behold now is the day of celebration.

You will receive it or you will rejected. You will answer that call

or you will hang up on the Lord. I'm telling you, God is

helping us in this building this morning. This nation needs to repent the lords

of God. We true, no matter how much we want to justify.

It said the nation that forsakes or forgets God shall be turned into hell.

What was it last Sunday? I believe it was just a few days ago.

Over one hundred Christians were murdered over there in Africa. Was it Cameroon

or Nagieri or something like that? What makes you think that's gonna stay over

there and not talk to him? CHLCA When a miracle refused this depot of

her niece a Maliki preaching of God's favor, that will chosen three point you

better stop her you rather than God. You better stop offer because blendish opera,

so so I killing you. The message of Malakoma's the same as chocolate

Baptist had a lot to be the same for every preacher in the year twenty

twenty four. A message operah repentance, the message of repentance. If Jesus

is gonna come and do away with it, why father repenting? Why father

lamit? I be sorry for ours said? Why back him for forgiveness?

On? The sweet presence of God is in this place this morning. They're

worried about others all prosperity, Brother Jesse. It's the nation of Israel that

descend. It's the very offspring of the Friend of God Abrahams. And this

is having to be preached to them. But oh, oh, don't you

dare preach a message of repentance to the churches of American more preaching. Oh,

don't preach on my little John here, my little Susie. Don't preach

on their drug abuse. Don't preach on their drug use. That's the problem.

We have not fed them the truth. We've fed them alive. Now

they're sick on lives. We've got to get back to feeding people the truth,

and you know what, we'll find out that greater is he that is

within us. If you put the truth in, then it's going to be

greater than us. Try the air kilt right there. Traitor is he that

is within us? That he had this in the world. I want to

see one than what I found. Feel got corn silence for it. In

myself. It's burning mayl water, it's burning new sidlence. He's burning at

the high certain no honey to me and I jeesus that go swept non con

said, you need the Lord rush, you need a savor, not the

hall. He's coming God, I said, in the hall, he's got

my silurday in a moment, you're not the Holy Day we can take.

Not the world is gonna come. Depiction comes on that Sunday morning. Compiction

comes on that Sunday night. Compiction comes on that mid week's service. And

you know what the message is saying, as we feel the spirit of conviction,

repent God. I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I pin at you.

I'm sorry that I say that the peas. I'm sorry that I said I

a servant, but I was sent up for something else. You're not gonna

find the lamb in a hog pill song. Ride around years ago looking for

love in all the wrong places. You're not gonna find deliverance at the drug

lord's house, but you will find it at the Lord's cross. Oh I

feel I hope it goes to this case. Should I keep preaching or shall

we go eat lunch? Preach our goal? In text offers a solution.

The hold. I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way

before me, and the Lord whom ye seek shall suddenly come to his temple.

Even the messenger of the Covenant, whom ye delight in the Hold,

he shall come, say the Lord of Hosts. Four hundred years later on

the Baptist appear to begin preaching the same message. What took place near in

those four hundred something years is no different than what's taking place today. People

don't change on their own without the Lord's help. People don't change, or

they continue living in the sin, declaring the grace of the bound, or

there's no new thing under the sun. The author of the Book of Ecclesiastes

set of chatter them the warm and worst of a night, And I'm trying

to hurry the thing that hath been is that which shall be. And now

which is done is that which shall be done. And there is no new

thing under the sun. I'll tell you what happened here in four hundred years.

Nothing new, nothing out of the ordinary, Just the same old,

same old, the same old misery, the same anxiety, the same loneliness,

the same anger, the same fear. And you know, on miss

yearsing, what's gonna happen in the new year twenty twenty four? If you

go into it without car and without his word, won't be looking for something.

The only thing no pot is lonely, and such kid are is the

same old tim The sinner will be angry, the center will be fair,

parton the center be unhearding. For four hundred years, the same thing.

That's what I told the Lord to night I got saved. I said,

I'm sick of tired of churching with no power. I'm scatared I having no

pictory over sin. I'd rather be an atheist, the servant powerless car,

I said, I'd rather be an atheist, the servant input to God,

go put not for ever. The other the job the practice was struggling in

prison, the one that looked at Jesus in the eyes. Here that candle

the word of life with his hands. He said, look, why are

you here? Why are you here? Or sit with luck pro thousand brook

he had preached them. I said, there, Batho, the speir of

God. You took her up. I took Jean the Baptist, the messenger

that Malachi preached about. He said, prison discourage. You can't do this

without Jesus. You can't do this without lady you lills over here. You

can't do this without Church of teners. You can't do this without Okay,

the diamond that he routine. You can't do this without praying. You get

it. This this between you and the Master. We'll stop thinking. They

true, said, they too, we'll stop getting the scards too. I

said, if you hang around alive properly, we'll get the cards too.

Threey of my grand babies ever become drug addicts. And I'm got to thirteen,

and by the end of the year I had fourteen. Brother Philip's sister

Elizabeth are expecting the baby. Isn't that wonderful? But I want to be

that papa. I want to be that papa that whenever they're throwing up on

the dock, shomming fish because he got drunk. I want to be that

papa, that they could come to their senses and say, my papa ain't

like the preacher down the road. He told me, you're always going to

be an alcoholic. You're always gonna be an addict. You're always doing suthing.

You just don't roll off the dock and die and be sart bait.

I hope the prodigal sons and daughters to come to their sensors and say,

I don't have to live with a heart here, I said. I hope

they understand her, not have to live a lifel poor athor a lifeful sin.

For you. This spirit here in this house don't like to a pizza.

They're luck to portray. No new thing under the sun, same old

sam same routine. People looking for something. That's what he said. The

Prime of Malica said, behold the Lord whom you seek. He's gonna come.

I need you to pray for him. I feel God's power so strong.

I need the right words. Rather He's given it to me. But

I don't want to make sure that everything in this building understands the spirit of

God is poorer for people in this building. They did the same thing your

friends and co workers and family members that do it. Hearing that four hundred

years the order of the human race did not change very much. The order

of the Roman government changed a little bit. The order of the universe didn't

change at all. The patterns of the sun and the moon, and the

solar system and the lunar system did not change very much. The labor and

delivery of the birth and marsh did not change very much. God did not

change, because God is God, he will always be God. God is

not a man that he should lie. I'm telling you that. But there

were some people that needed change. They felt those single motions, they felt

those same fears, They made their same bad life choices and decisions. They

laughed, they cried as some simply existed and wished to for the end of

day, while others wished to for the end of their life. They lived

as the same as other generations before them. For far hundred years. Nothing

changed. But I want you to know when Jesus was born, the heavens

took notice the Antela crime. Save the loly shepherds knew there was hope.

The night time me here rock and I want you to know if you want

it to the fact. You know the delivery. Other can sell this in

this building right now to break course the changer. I see it, I

said, the change breaker her this in this building this morning, we shall

save his people from their sins, not in their shin. Don't tell my

grandbabies they gotta die alcoholics. Don't tell my babies they're on a collision course

with eurosis of the livery. You tell them they're on a collision course with

the delivery. I don't care how many reaches lie to us. The Bible

said they would follow them blind leaders, and then following them they would both

in the ditch. And I want to say something. There's ditches on both

sides of the road. The only thing that I have found to be a

true highway is this word of God. If you'll look at it, it

looks like two lanes, but it lies being transferred into eternity, the eternal,

everlasting, forever settled word of God. I'm walking on a highway,

I said, I'm walking on a high running an empress step of the way.

The word of God reads true. I know that they'll come a day

an hour in these United States of America, where I will die for these

words, and it may be sooner than you realize that God has never approved

of the sin of homosexuality. I love the homosexual sinner. I've got a

friend in town. He comes over and speaks to me. Ever he waits

on Sister Howl, and he is an open homosexual. I show him the

love of God. He knows Pastor Howard loves him. That he also knows

that God disciprons her of his death style. I said, God disciplans her

on his death style. If your prand child every falls into the sin of

homosexuality, I don't be the preacher alive with you a heart. Let's send

you want for this is a passa he Jesus to be at the heart to

tell me there offer their maid. We gonna stop the liar preachers. We've

gotta stop the past prophet malach. So now you're taking that nobody wants to

embrace. It's something that we just don't want to do. There's no news

standing under the sun. Have y'all noticed that the same thing you fought,

your children are facing it. They're fighting it every day in twenty twenty four.

Without Jesus, they're gonna face the same issues they're gonna face the same

struggles that I keep preaching us over go. These people felt the same emotions

you feel. They felt the same fear as you feel. They made some

good choices and some bad choices. They laughed, they cried, They existed,

they lived, They did the same as the generations before them. God

did not change. I want you to know that God's word will never change

eath. Here's what I like about some of these people who lived here in

that time. Some of them were looking for change. Some of them were

seekers of truth, not partial truth. Some of them were seekers of the

whole truth. I'm telling you. If they had a copy of the words

of the prophets before Malachi and other writings, Brother Aaron, I'm sure they

were just stubbing that law of Moses, trying to get as much truth as

they could from Jehovah what was available to them at that time. They were

reading and looking for the truth. Was looking for the truth. How did

the man Jill know to come look for truth himself? Because of the prophets

like Dange, We became the head over the magi in Babylon because of them,

wonderful people like Nea mine Esther, the queen. How many of you

know Esther the Queen was a beautiful woman to look at. She had power

over a Hashrist. That's how the church should be. We should have power

over this world. We should be able by our natural beauty to influence this

world in a positive way. I'm not saying we're better than anybody. I'm

not saying we're holier than anybody. But I am saying that Christian for beauty,

that new creature in you, the old things have passed away, the

whole old things have would come you. He will beautifyth mee with salm.

Mason, you know why Esther was some beautiful because on downess he was of

the tribal Benchaman, was he not? I believe he was helping hold of

ghost? Is that rob brother Jessey O? The tribe of Benjamin? Do

you know who else was there? The tribe of Benjamin? Benjamin? Right,

y'all get that right? Benjamin? Do you know who Benjamin's mother was?

Rachel? Do y'all remember beautiful Rachel? How long her husband worked for

her because of her beauty? Who said Leal won't work. I'll talk to

half Rachel. I sent Leah lot work. I'm talking to half Rachel.

We like to something talk to so ka time leele say God picking Leah,

Rachel, Rachel. There was something about Rachel. She was so beautiful.

I work a few more years. How many years did he work for Rachel?

Huh? Fourteen years? She must have been a beautiful woman. You

see the jeen tool right there. Huh. I never heard of about Rachel

her He goes gave that to me. Rachel was beautiful esthers of that same

child, she's beautiful. God used it for his glory. This is poison.

I'm not condemning anybody that's done this. I'm not their enemy. I

am their friend. I will minister to them and help them as much as

I will the members of this church. But it's not the will of God

that he split his tongue and so it of til it's fashion in a point,

there's doctor will of God that he split his ears and pulling together where

he looks like an elf. That is the creation of God. We have

been formed according to the will of God. I don't need a plastic search

and to change the way I look or tell. I'm telling you there's something

change, some changes. It should not be made no more than the leper

can change his spots. Neither can you change some things. But I want

to preach to us hope this morning that there are some things that God can

change that no man can change. Pastor Howell cannot change your heart. But

I'm I know what God that makes all things new. You want to find

that room? Get to heaven. He makes all things newd I don't know

about you, but I'm looking for a city that high, foundation, builder

and maker is God. Oh, I want to go there? Do you

mean to go there? If you look at our golden Texas said the Lord

whom you seek? Isn't that a compliment? They're truth seekers. I'm preaching

a message the Holy Ghost title looking for something. These people thought they were

seekers of truth, but they weren't seeking truth after all, they were seeking

controversy. They were seeking conflict. Why do you say that, Pastor Howell.

These people were looking for a one world leader, someone who would squash

the Roman Empire. So when truth presented itself in their very face, they

could not see it. They were looking for a natural kingdom. When John

the Baptist de Bear, they thought, surely this guy is going to be

a great general behind him, and behind that voice is gonna be a great

army. They thought Jesus would be that one world king. That's why the

Jews are gonna fall for the Antichrist, because they're still looking for a one

world leader, and they're gonna embrace it, hook line and sinker. A

large percentage of this world is looking for a one world leader. I love

to hear crickets preach. Got your intention here? You're thinking, so truth

itself may now imagine this will mean God himself appeared, He performed miracles,

He comforted John's spirit while John was in prison with these words. You go

tell my cousin John, You go tell my forerunner, John the blind see

the lame walk. But this is gonna be what gets John the poor hud

the Gospel treats to them. Gd faks won't do that. I lost somebody

right there. I'm trying to be humorous there. But I'm telling you,

Jesus, God himself said, you tell John, which was the greatest preacher

born among women. You tell that prince of the preachers, the poors having

the Gospel preach. And that's why this is an outreached church. Every week

we have jail ministry we have nursing home ministry, we have homeless ministry.

This is not depend flowers on our shirts. This is not to speak well

of usself. I'm telling you though, there are people out there searching for

the truth. There's people out there looking for something. They don't need a

twelve pack, they need a sixty six pack. Let's fast forward this a

little bit. When Pilot was presiding over the Unlawful Trilogy Jesus, Pilot asked

the Lord himself, is truth? Pilot? I have the answer to that

question for you, pal. Truth is the living word that informs us how

to live as a child of God. Truth is the living word that informs

us how to live as a child of God. Jesus had been arrested and

taken up to Conface's house. He was set up by religious leaders. They

had assembled that they were ready to pounce on him like a lion on his

prey. They condemned him and sent him to Pilot for a trial and sentencing.

Pilot had hurted this man. Pilot was intrigued by this man. Pilot

even said, should I believe the things that I've heard of you? Then

Pilot asked the question that he wanted to ask. I beg to be asked,

are you the king of the Jews? Because the match I took it

back to Babylon and the hotel of Roman Empire. We don't believe this.

Are you the king of the Jews? Tell everybother saying, the Messiah himself

is standing at the mercy of immortal Messiah himself, Truth himself, the one

that raised the dead. Now this is where we have to remember. The

heart is desperately wicked above all things evil. It's wicked. Who can know

it? It's what the Bible said. How is standing there and he looks

at that Jew that came to save the world. Have to hear in all

of this he knows it's true. Was their intelligent forces, their CIA,

their FBI had come back, said it's true. We've interrogated people. He's

a hero, he's a miracle work right, And he said, are you

the Jews? Now? Y'all remember never Canezzar had promoted Daniel the Jews.

The Jews have infiltrated the world. You all don't realize that the Jews have

been promoted to positions of power in Egypt and bablon esther shoe Sha the palace,

w was who shoes sham where neam was thin, his king, the

Jews, the Christians, the power of God, the saw of the earth,

the people of God. Then the Truth himself, that we're all living

for that we're all following as standing there before a man that knows just before

he came, when he was apprehended, when they snuck upon him in the

garden, and they said, Jesus said, do seek now, we look

for Jesus, and Jesus said, I am he and six hundred men fell

on their faces. So I'm sure, Pilot, it's like stiffing his knees.

I'm telling you. People can lie to you. They can change your

composer, they can put on their poker face, but they're shaken in sidcles

ain't know the truth. The problem is men reject the truth. And it

takes a fall to look at truth staring you in the eye, and the

rejection. It does not matter how much you wash your hand, you want

to wish you and rust your soul. We're gonna lossing. Not a word,

not a word, call it. He's not telling you. You said

it took Jesus back to hen in a back chain. Man and praying through

the salvacer position, Paven. That's prestige, Pilot. What is it keeping

you good? What is it keeping you from doing the whole counsel of God.

I'm telling you that Pilots stood there and looked at the God of heaven

and Earth, then fastened away by spoken word and let him walk away.

Don't you Todd walk away? I said, got to, said God to

a cross, but die, got to, said Jesus to nor cross to

die? You bury your cross, preacher. You're preaching the truth that people

will persecute you, boy, So be it. I had gone teach churches.

I was involved in Ukraine. We can't go over there right now due

to the circumstances. But if concept go to Ukraine and preaching in the place

of other Russian souls and so we have to do that. We can't live

it. I said, you can't live that. I will be judged by

the Lord. You will be judged by the Lord. Pilot. There's gonna

be a role reversal. Jesus is gonna take little boy Pilot by the little

head. I say, pow every niche ball in every tone, Shall I

confess that your knees never canizzar, it's a good thing out there. Let

you quit bow in the grass that you bowed down and said I had stole

he old it. I'm telling you you turn around and walk away from the

truth. His stories say Pilot was plagged until he died with trying to wash

the blood off his hands. Pilot, if you didn't repent her in hell

right now and you're still trying to watch, somebody under the sun of my

horse knows the truth has met you. Hear it. You've been looking for

something, You've been in such a something, and you know that, you

know that, you know you found it. How could I find it right

there in the little place called little, oh, little town of work for

him? That my time did not go to long case and on the move

of time or the wether, they said, Oh Jesus Christ up, I'm

telling you, I spell it, told Nataka you time I see it come

and see how did any good thing come out of Nassik traub hand. See

you're know what the thing you said? All right, I'm his third phrasing

here. He said, I've already been such a point because when he got

the Jesus, Jesus taking Nathaniel, when you were something the pree tree salty.

If he's secret here, you'll find here. I'll say he's not calling

for never let the us letting it finding how people think they're going put truth

on trial. I'm gonna go down there and check that pastor of it.

I've been through that for years. I'll tell you how to check it out.

I got I speak as a fool. I got five sons and a

daughter, every one of them safe. I've never had the belt one.

I'm out of jail. I never had to get one of my off drugs.

But I'll tell you how I save my family by embracing truth and then

getting out there and saving the drug addicty. And I told my boys just

beat my body guarden. When I go in there, honor, am I

telling the truth. I've been in there some when they had feasts running underside?

Is that the truth or a lie? Went in there? Led to

the hole that goes somebody looking for truth? And preached a sermon titled hog

hunting. Know everybody don't know my stories because I don't tell them far and

wide. I don't send out offerings either trying to get fame or position or

power. But brother Jeremiah. Not everybody knows the details of what's been going

on behind the scenes over the years. But I preached that message hog hunting.

I didn't know that more than four or five was listening. As I

got to the stop side, I got ready to turn on a county road,

never to be seen up again. Pretty much here or black man out

of the shadows, his eyes as yeller as this microphone cover yeller ate up

hypnotized, and I got out of the vehicle. He's from crime. My

linear telling the truth. Say huh, five boys, and this been to

raise your hand if I'm telling the truth. I got out. I ran

to him, thesis running down his neck. He says, sir, stay

away, unclean. I knew then he knew something about the Bible. He's

crying. I said, what's wrong, buddy? He said, I've been

listening to your preach. He said. You said. There's a bachelor and

holding his treacher out here in the darkness, listening to your preach. He

said. My name's Lonzo Johnson. He said. I used to preach all

the time. Truth and righteousness is separation from sin and deliverance, he said.

But people persecuted and fought me for it, and I compromised, and

I've ended up here in this state. He said. My old brothers got

me living in the backyard in the tent. He said, I've phoned down

my Lowe said I got cancer that cut half my intestines out. And I

said, son, you can't afford the crossing your dad, can you?

He said, no stress to their lungs and let me hug you. There's

people of civil wisdom would say nothing to do that, but Jesus said do

it. And you know what, I ain't tested positive for him patitis ship.

He knelt down and prayed. He was looking for something God knew when

the Howell family packed up our PA system and went to the streets. But

Stare, you never know who's listening you and brother Stair coming. You never

know who's out there seeking truth. You never know, Brother Staire, I

had no idea. You keep it up, brother, I had no idea.

I'm not gonna condemn that brother. I'm gonna try to help him,

even if there's things I don't understand as a sinner, I'd ask you,

hey, Lonzo Junction. I went back after I took the church down here,

I went back looking for mister Lawns and Fort me Florida. I started

asking business owners and people that would have known him. Brother you for stabs.

They said, yeah, we knew mister Laronzau said he's dead now.

I said, oh, I have to hear that. I wanted to check

on him. Said still serving the Lord and preaching. They said, yeah,

he turned into one of the holy nuts walking around for me preaching.

Said he died preaching. I'm telling you right now, Lonzou didn't say the

preacher and sold him because he preached on hogway. What I said is you're

out there in that hog pin and you know it, and that's not where

you belong, Sir, I said, I can't laugh eyes on you,

but you're out there. I know God talking to me, Brother Jesse.

They said, he died with that condition, but it reminds me of the

beggar and laid at the gate. He might have had the sores of a

backslider. He might have had the wounds of his sin. God, God

and happiness. There's some things that some people in this building regret. But

I'm telling you, you're looking for peace and joy and happiness and rest.

I feel the love of Jesus in this place. Let's stand truth. Truth.

What I say to you that Elias has come already, and they knew

him not, but have done with him whatsoever they listed? Likewise, shall

also the son of Man suffer of them. What are you going to do

with, Jesus? What will you do with truth? Now that you've seen

it, now that you've witnessed him? What will you do with truth?

Brother Jesse would you come to the penn of this morning? John eighteen and

seven? Then asking them again, whom seek you? Then, they said

Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus answered and said, I have told you I am

here. If therefore ye seek me, let these go their way. And

I want to close with this. These preachers and these Bible students are not

my problem. Jesus said, I am here. Let them go their way.

There's no need in persecuting the people of God. There's no need in

persecuting others. You need to face Jesus, You need to face the truth.

Toe to Toad, I bought with the truth. I have so much

more to preach. But I feel like God has brought us to an altar.

If we could boil our heads and close our eyes. You're looking for

something, you're looking for someone. I'm reminded of this, brother Steed.

I was preaching at a street of La Bell seventeen years ago. I'd just

come down here. While I was preaching, a big four will Drive went

by. Country music was blaring. I thought, just another young man just

passing by on a Saturday busy going from point A to point B. Probably

had somewhere to go that was very important, some important business, brother Tyler.

I noticed that big four will drive pickup truck I believe it was,

went back again. Then I noticed it went back in, and then sister

hal hollered. She said, Jeremy, look at this. This young man's

over here. He wants to speak to you. I walked over there near

that veteran memorial in Little Bell. It was before it was there, in

an old parking lot with potholes in and have to d rain. I said,

what's the matter, son? He said, I don't know. But

when I hurt your words, something got a hold of me, sir,

he said. So I turned the country music down and I went back by

and I listened. He says, something keeps grabbing a hold of me,

he said, And the third time, sunt just said, go talk to

that man. He can help you. Suddenly, truth came to the tenth.

I talked to him for about five minutes. I said, are you

saved? He said, I don't even know what that means, but I

liked what I feel. I liked what I heard. I need to be

saved. I talked to about how it can be saved, to be born

again. He started crying old time conviction came upon him. Glory be to

Jesus. I said, let's pray. Naturally, he fell to his knees

on a wet pavement. I looked at his sister hand and I said,

he means business, because most young men that age wouldn't done anything but nil

on a wet pavement. So I got down there with him, brother Nathaniel

on my knees. Y'all probably remember this, how boys that we prayed.

I said, what's your name? Son? He said Ethan. I said

what's your last name? He told me. The next service he came into

church. About three months went by his praying. I said, God,

you know he doesn't live around here, but I need to know. Am

I supposed to be in Lobel. I feel like I am of the opportunities

of surface. Should I stay in Lobel, I said, God, if

I should stay in Nobel, what you said, Ethan into this church.

I was in the middle of preaching my brother Christian. Would the back door,

the glass doors right there swing open? In come Ethan. I stopped

and ran to him. There's people in this building, and watch this happen,

I said, son, what are you doing here? He said,

Pastor Howe, I had to come see you. He said, A voice

spoke to me and said, go see Pastor Howell. He said, I

don't understand it. He said, right there on the front pew, he

had been busy, took his hat off and listened to the sermon. That's

somebody that was looking for something, looking for someone, and found it.

It's also someone that can hear the voice of the Board. And I want

you to know, and I appreciate that every person in this world and this

point that can hear the voice of the Lord that desern it when you hear

it. If you're that young person or that middle age or that elder person

that knows you need to pray this morning, here's an altar which you come

up to the altar and pray and sept Jesus as you say, or what

you pray through, whatever it is you need to pray through. I see

two or three moving. Are there any others men? Women, There's several

men coming forward to anybody. I'm pastor. I'm looking for something. I

need something more than what I have. I thank God for what I do

have, but I'm looking for something more. The author is the feeling of

of course, I think every one of us could use for the Bible said

by the Truth and said it not. I thank God for his sweet spirit.

We feel Truth himself personified was in the presence about it, and he

said, what is truth? What is truth? Everyone just prayed in your

own way. If I have a place to pray, let's just boil our

heads and speak to the Truth himself. Say Jesus, the truth is I'm

in need of a savior. The truth is I'm miserable. The truth is

I need born. The truth is be truthful with him as you pray.

The truth. It's truth. The truth is he loves you. The truth

is He died for you to save you from that nation, to save you

from destructure. Being the Church, being the child of love, emot you

to me, be as beautiful as Rachel, be as beautiful as mister truth

Lord. In a mixed out, the best up world, I will embrace

the truth in a confused, twisted society, I will embrace the truth.

I will shun watch you tell him the truth, preacher, Tell him the

truth, teacher. It's not hard. The issue of disuse to his burden

of all God freach. He's coming suddenly to this temple. The spirit of

God has come down, has build this point it to help somebody pick up
