Don't Blow It - Bro Jeremy Howell 9-24-2023

Much you do. Will you turn with us to the Book of Psalm.

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

tenth verse of that chapter. Actually, let us read versus number nine and

ten of the ninth chapter of the Book of Psalm. Brother Nathaniel, please

turn to the Book of Hebrews, chapter number thirteen and verse number five,

Brother Jesse. Hebrews chapter number eleven and verse number six. Brother Rodkamp,

I would like for you to have Deuteronomy chapter number three and verse number eight

on hand. Actually Deuteronomy chapter number thirty one and verse number eight on hand,

should I need it during this service, I will ask you to take

that microphone from Brother Jesse and read that verse of scripture. Brother Nathaniel,

what did you read that Hebrews chapter number thirteen and verse number five. Let

your conversation be without covetiousness, and be content with such things as you have,

For he hath said, I will never leave thee nor for safety.

All right? Does the Lord ever speak differently concerning his word? This word

of God that we hold in our hands, even now? Can it be

changed? Will it ever be changed? It has been changed and revised by

men they have generated and created perversions of the sacred manuscripts. They have twisted

and tainted, deluded and polluted. But this is God's word, and they

should not do those things. To God's word. We do know that to

the disobedient, the Holy go said through Sister Wooton, that he will not

always strive with man, and that he will not always woo or call or

pool for the disobedient. He has up until this point, he's long suffering,

and he's merciful. Is that not what the Holy Ghost said? Have

I not been merciful? Have I not been there? Have not called unto

thee? Y'all heard the scripture vers at. Brother Nathaniel just read. We

must reciprocate. When the Lord calls unto us, we must respond. Do

y'all believe that we must be obedient to that heavenly calling? To borrow the

words of the great Apostle Paul, we must be obedient to the heavenly calling.

Before we are obedient, we must be responsive. Apostle Paul responded to

the Lord, and he said, Lord, who art thou? Apostle Paul

already knew who it was that had been dealing with him. Brother Jesse,

and he decided to respond properly and correctly, and then he complied and got

into obedience in the will of God. We have heard the voice of God

of late speaking to us. He's speaking to the Bethel hole in his church,

the people that are in this building, this particular part of the body

of Christ. He's been speaking directly to us. To seek him. We

know what the scripture said, seek him while he may be found, Call

upon him while he is near. What isn't God everywhere and every time throughout

the generations? Isn't the Lord just as close as to mention of his name?

But you mean what sister Whoop said a little while ago through tongues,

and then the interpretation came that there could come a time when you cannot find

him. She didn't know what I was going to preach on this morning,

but it aligns herself perfectly with what I'm going to preach on this morning,

because the orchestrator of today's services is the Holy Ghost. We're looking forward to

hearing, Brother Jesse. How will preach tonight? Brother Nathaniel. I want

you to read that scripture verse again. Hebears chapter number thirteen and verse number

five Now that you're paying attention, listen more closely. Let your conversation be

without consciousness, and be content with such things as you have. Where he

Hath said, I will never leave thee nor forsake thee. Okay, he

Hath said I will never leave thee nor persafe thee. But didn't the Holy

Ghost just say that I will will no longer continue chasing after you. There's

been ample time, because he never leaves nor pursakes his children. Those that

are obedient to him are his children. But that disobedient and the unruly they

pursake him, They abandon him. Those that end up in the eternal Abyss,

that lake of fire, they sentenced themselves there. They placed themselves there

before God sent them there, Brother Jesse, Hebrews, chapter number eleven and

verse number six. But without faith it is impossible to please him. For

he that come into God must believe that he is, and that he is

a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. We must believe that he is

and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Nobody is

going to just stumble upon the Lord, although he is everywhere at all times,

nobody's just going to stumble into the Lord, even though they're walking within

view of the Lord. The Lord himself called unto Adam Adam, where art

thou Adam did not stumble into the presence of the Lord, because he was

right from the presence of the Lord. That's why King David, when he

had been called Nathan the Prophet had called him out, he pled with the

Lord. He said, take not thy Holy Spirit from me. Those that

are seeking the Lord have been commissioned and called. No man cometh unto the

Father unless the Spirit draw him. And have any of you know that the

Bible makes it clear that every within humanity, at some point, because of

the goodness of the grace of calm, they have been led to repentance.

They have had an opportunity. And this is why we're obedient to the heavenly

calling in the Great Commission, because we are compelling people. Brother Thomas Staret,

they have spoke of these recent fatalities that have taken place in the streets

of LaBelle. Could it be, Brother stare At, that some of those

drivers of those automobiles have heard you preaching on the street corner, Brother stare

At, every Saturday while you're out there preaching, and while the whole team

is out there holding up sides and passing out tracks. Could it be that

maybe God, and his greatness and his goodness, and in his impotent mercy,

he dealt with somebody just before they went an hour up the road and

died and stepped into eternity. Could it be that they wept, and they

cried and prayed, and that prodigal asked God to forgive them. Maybe street

ministry means a lot more to us now realizing that those that are traveling on

those highways may not travel another day on those highways. The truth is,

Brother Jesse, some men are running from God, while others are seeking him.

I'm laying a foundation. Let's stand for the reading of our text.

Psalm chapter number nine will reverse number nine. The Lord also will be a

refuge for the old prest, a refuge in times of trouble. And they

that know thy name will put their trust in THEE. For Thou Lord,

hast not forsaken them that seek THEE. Now, with that in mind,

may we pray, Heavenly Father, we love it, we praise you.

I know that the saints have already shouted I know that the Holy Ghost of

Nordy spoken of this people. I know that you have laid a servant upon

my heart a message from you, Oh Lord, for this people. I

pray that you would have known this, Thy servants that are God and my

mouth. Help me to say the 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 spirits saith to the churches. Oh God,

help us to not be here is only, but help us to heed to

be news. I pray that these words would go below the shoulders Lord,

that I'm getting our hearts of mind, us souls, our spirits, We

pray God, And may we depart this place joyfully and not sorrowfully. In

Jesus name. Amen, looking again in verse number ten. And they that

know thy name will put their trust in THEE. For Thou Lord, hast

not forsaken them that seek THEE. Our text is found in an Old Testament

book of the Holy Bible, the Book of Psalms. Can someone give me

another name for this book of Psalms? Let me give you a couple names

for this book of the Bible, The Hebrews Book of Songs, and Poems,

the Hebrews Songbook. The people of this world of every generation known that

the Hebrew people have a special connection with the Lord. Throughout history, people

have witnessed that God is the God of the Israelites because of his conditional promise

between him and Abraham. There is no doubt that that covenant was binding as

long as the descendants of the offspring of Abraham were obedient, as long as

they are actively seeking the Lord as their ancestor Abraham had, the Hebrew people

had the blessing of the Lord upon them. And so the people that lived

around these Hebrew people, they were known as the gentiles, you know,

just pagan people, people that did not serve the Lord. They certainly didn't

worship him in the beauty of holiness. They didn't come into the House of

the Lord to worship him in spirit and in truth. And so when I

gave you a couple other names of this book of song lot, the song

Book of the Hebrew People, or the Book of Songs and Poems of the

Hebrew People, we can say, whether Nathaniel, that this certainly was not

the song Book of the Philistines, This was not the sole book of the

Amblocites or the Amorites. This was not a book of poetry by the Canaanites.

No, this book of Psalms is a collection of poetic writings and songs

that have been given to God's people, for God's people, to God's ben

for God's people. You see that these men were highly anointed of the Holy

Ghost. These men were artists, either musical or poetic, and they were

appointed by the Lord to put pear in department and give us these wonderful words

that encourage us so many times. In fact, this Book of Psalms was

comprised of one hundred and fifty chapters of psalms apouts written by anointed authors who

were pity to God breathe words and came into their souls while they swear upon

their bed at night in tears, while they sought the Lord on the backside

of a desert somewhere, but while they're saying to her praises of God near

the riverside. Well after that they've been spared as they crossed the Red Sea.

The authors of these psalms of poems were people that were truly the people

of God, people that knew the name of the Lord Hey, if you

want to purchase a good song book, just go buy a Bible and read

this book of Psalms and look through these hundred and fifty poems and songs and

encourage uself singing that song to with it. Put a musical tune to it,

and just sing the songs of Zion. I know that there's been times

in my life that would I lack the words to pray to God. I've

opened the Book of Psalms and laid it there on the of the base of

that chair and put my head right in from that bible and begin to pray

the words and these psalms that I found the spirit of God begin to move

inside of my song and uctioned me to pray that I just see a song

bok that of Philistines would not do that. A song look of the Amacats

of the Amirrats would not do that for me. But you know, these

God reads words that these men wrote down as for the pleasing to me.

Because these words are like apples of gold and pictures of silver. They are

so fairly spoken, they're so relevant to me this day. They are gonna

be relevant to my grandchildren many days after this day. I feel like the

spirit of God has gonna taught to somebody in this fielding disparting if you have

ears to hear, if I'm going to my son better. I am very

picky about the book that I'm by. I'm very concerned about the authors more

than I am the penmanship, and more than I am about them the producer

are the one that put that together. The publisher, I'm more concerned about

the author. This is why I like the songs that are founding a helped

Church and God here, the Red Bat Hymn, the Church Hymn off.

I liked the fact that they were written in the early nineteen hundreds of Butter

Jessee. I appreciate the fact that most of or the authors of those hymns

had an understanding of sactification and what it wants to be set apart from this

world unto God. You see, these Hebrews people understood that they must be

as sactified people or God a priesthood or holder people, people that have come

out from the rest of under the world, all though the rest of the

world scene to them as outsiders. To the rest of the world, they

one of the outsiders. That is how we feel as the children of God.

That if you're really living inside of it, in the city of God's

peel, and you're looking out there, if you see anybody that's doing that

sacivid it as an outsider. But if you're inside and you're wondering about it,

what life is like it on the outside because of your heart is out

there. Did you feel like that you are the outsider? Heh, No,

you are insider if you are a child of God. And these young

boys and girls would have heard the songs of silent saying, they would have

went frequently to the House of God. They would have saw the names.

But the Lord raised high the banner's raven in the air, the name Jehovah.

Child as they sing a song for this provision, Jehovah, so Lord,

as they say a son, but said Jehovah, Jehovah Shallah. I'm

telling you these people they knew the name. But the Lord Holga son bec

is the name for the Lord. You come to church aside is the name

for the Lord. On your Bible, it says, hold the Bible,

it is the book for the Lord. That I knew that you know the

name of the Lord that I want you to know. You better know it,

and you better share it her and not blow it. Now I am

preaching, I'll follow on her little outline of three points. You know it,

you share it, but don't blow it. I feel like these people

have blew it in a lot of instances. They missed it. They had

God's man, they had God's me on each other, they had the Church,

they had the so Mu, the raal must the Lord. I said,

where, what's the Lord? Where is the Lord this morning? Is

he right there with you? Is he in your heart? All right?

These he real people with grown up hearing as seeing the name of the Lord.

They weren't familiar with the writings of the Philistines, the amla Kots and

the Ammonites. That would have been as strange material. That would have been

something that they would have been stone for possessing. They would not have touched

that unclean thing. They would not have smuggled those books into their chamber.

They would not have been singing the songs of the Philistines, the Amorites,

and the Amlakots rather Jeremiah, to be honest with you, quite frankly,

simply because they just didn't have the resources to tap in to the things of

this world and so rather Jesse. They're literally being raised in a sheltered environment

where everybody is naming the name of the Lord, and where most have departed

from iniquity, but where they realize it's becoming commonplace for some to name the

name of the Lord, for some to profess and knowing the Lord, for

some to even show it or put it to own display. But then they

see these others that are not departing from iniquity. As I begin to read

this not chapter recently and in light of recent events, I thought about our

church family and how we've been enduring affliction as good soldiers. To hardness that

we have been enduring has not turned us from the Lord, but it has

turned us unto the Lord. And I found the writings within this ninth chapter

to be most informative, instructive, and encouraging. Every one of you.

If you will take time this afternoon and will come to night service. If

you did that or not to, if you will take time out of your

busy day today to sit down and read the night chapter of the Book of

Psalm, you will soon come to an understanding and a concern of the purpose

of this writing. A song I noticed that it's a song of David.

At some point the sweet som us to be Israel, the eleventh key took

this song in place to track into the hands of the chief of musician assault

leader. Why would he do such a thing, Because David had a burden

for his and people. David cared about her their welfare. David cared about

her the spiritual well being. David cared about his very own family members.

And David cared about those that God had put under him. And so he

goes the extra mile for those that had compelled him to go on. They

had asked him to be their leader. They had asked him to be their

key, and he decides to be their minister. As a realm and this

musical genius, he puts pin department and gives us these words and non Nathaniel

I noticed the day, but put to an imphasis. Old having trusted and

compendenza in the Lord, I called about her brother Aaron. I can see

where he appreciated the cause of judgment, and then at the end I could

see where he rejoiced in God's salvation. He didn't preach a Numi gluten message.

Only he let him know that the God of heaven and earth. He's

a forgiven god. He is a merciful, every loving god. And then

he has their best interested mine. Oh yes, God will always warn us,

but her judgment concert. He will always prepare us. Loofore he puts

some concert. But all you listen, say are you preparing? Are you

watching? And pray? That's what Jesus told his disciples. It's a time

to watch, it's a time to pray. He need God. Now,

you better pray now because there's a dark tide covering there's a dark colored tide.

But you'll have prestens. You thought you never asked. Look when you

think things, Hey, who thought you another thing? I'm telling you there's

a reason why God has said see thing. He said, seek thing,

what I may be found? He calling me while I'm here. It's a

sad state of affairs when God has to tell any nation, any people,

any prophet, any person, seek me. That's something we should be doing

anyway. That's something to David did often. Old David, the other men

of God said, early, will I see thee, Lord, my heart

can attack to thee as that de or doth the water brook. Lord,

I'm parting after thee. I need you, Lord. My soul feels like

a desert that has cried out for rain. That ain't something they said,

but that's something I've said over the years, And I said, God,

we need showers of blessing. We need the Holy Ghost to pour down its

blessing upon us. It does not matter whether you're walking through the valley or

the shadow of death or a desert, or if you're in the high places

of God. You need God there because if cards with you, you've got

everything that you need. I said a card that he's there, You've got

everyone you need. A man, you can tell that this King David was

a man that was in tune with God. He had a heart at to

God. His heart panted at to God. David is concerned about his brothers

and sisters. He's their keeper. He is literally their shepherd. He is

the one to sign the responsibility to protect them from the outsiders, those that

would try to strip the banners up the wall, those that would try to

destroy the house of God, those that would try to destroy the house up

Jehovah. You see, this is not just the house of any old God.

This is what I'm trying to tell y'all this morning. You know it,

just like come these ears wils know it. You know God is here.

You know the spirit of God is moven, you know it. That's

what sister Leah let us in song this morning, singing, I know,

I know that point number one is you know you know that life are changing

at the altar. You know the sister Howard just adorned when she seen you

know that God said a revival, saved sat the pie, called a dust

field and called the pre chasing you was shot me up this year. You

know it? Then you show it. You tist the pie on that time,

you seeing the high praise that sup that time. But it's your heart

in that time I said, it's your heart. This tenner, it is

all that ever I pro to the ten that they needed been on in the

field. God, let me go off with God. Why in the lone

is he not around? The hint is what the Holy Ghost said this morning

for sister Wooton. I have called and you have not responded. I have

chased that to you and you have not ceased the chase. I have sought

that to you and you would not be found. I have club for you

to seek me, and you would not seek me. I'm telling you the

Holy ghosts speaking to some people in this building. This song book was intended

for the Hebrew people. If you want a song book that's full of songs

at work, you're gonna have to go old school. I'll clap my hands.

I'll clap my hands, and everybody clap your hands. Oh yes.

If you won't joy it, you must jump for it. You must shop

for it. You must worship kill this spirit, end in truth. You

must throw your heart attitude and let your body try to catch up with your

heart. He say, well, I'm seeking, I'm disabled, I'm no

longer you're able throw your heart at it. Come and you're fie to a

body that catch up with your heart. I said, throw your heart at

you. You show it up. You testify attacking your neighbors, see attacking

you left for test this day, the closing the parking lot tucky but not

true. Mother, he boy, I got teach miss out tucking. But

on what a more opportunity? Hecky, go walk with God. I'm going

to preach. It's hard to preach after all that shouting we did, after

the Holy ghost moving the way it did. But I feel like I must

preach it. If I wanted a good cookbook, I would get an Amish

cookbook sure Wood, Brother Gabriel. Or I would get an Irish lim Wood

cookbook, the Cookbook of Irish limp Wood, and I'd make so much baked

chicken till my entire family got sick of it, or so much baked pork

woman, or whatever. If I wanted a good sow and Manuel, I

taught my sister Howard. She sewed some really awesome frilly dresses for Hannah over

the years. She's a pretty talented seem dress. Or I'd go and get

the Seams Handbook author Kathy who road Cap. You know what I need?

A good spiritual song? Oh, come on around. I'll reach into our

history books and come out of the clost all the songs you're called eli.

Do you'll want to shout? Do you don't want to shout? You remember

what the Book of Revelation said? You got a name? What's your bed?

Come on? It ain't enough to have called elish records in the back

of your closet. It ain't enough to say my granddaddy used to see everybody

back your hands up. They are holding enos with me. It ain't enough

to say it. If you want to shout, you gotta jump for it.

Talk about it home. Yes, she even show it, you put

it on display, and I want you to know you can do it if

you're not careful. These people needed to be a good standing with the Holy

Ghost, with a spirit of God. David did not want to greet the

spirit of God, declared, don't take thy spirit. Don't take thy spirit

coming heady, please don't rene it. Take from my present. Say world,

come on now, I talking to somebody in this build. And do

you realize the opportunity in front of you to hide Jesus and the Holy Ghost

on reciting inside of you. David stress an emphasis of being a good standing

with a heaven and Father. I don't have any doubt in my mind whatsoever,

but the stirit that David intended for the Hebrew people to read these words.

He expected to hear them sing these songs as ion, and they were

sung in the ears of those that wanted to hear them and those that did

not want to hear them. The musicians played skillfully with a loud noise.

David danced in the street and got into spirit, regardless of who offered after

or who offered disapproval, doesn't would still worship the Lord. Oh, come

on nessair. They saved these songs and read these poems in the ears of

all who gathered the worshiper in the Lord's house. This is where God's people

who worship him his spirit. And in truth, I know that you can

worship Him in all these I know that you can worship Him in Albertson's and

Walbrote. But this piece of crowd, this geographical location, has been designated

by God, has a place for sacred communion, hord and consultation that the

punshon the God. This so this word God is home. I said,

this place, this word card. He got up with a shout the Lord

with a sad of a trumpet. They shall know me by my name Lord,

for that who Lord has not forsaken them that seek thee. So the

opposite of that statement must be you have forsaken those that do not seek,

which stresses the importance again, you better seek the Lord, just like the

Holy Ghost said. So David desired that the Israelites seemed wonderfully unto the Lord.

And when they sang or wonderfully has Sister faith wrote capt it this morning.

Then the Lord did wondrously. Every no might not have been on key,

every instrument might not have been perfectly into. But when you do it

with all of your heart, you'll mind your street that you put to everything

you have into it. The Lord will work wonderously when you worship wonderfully.

Don't come on now. If you look at those number eleven, it says,

see praises to the Lord, which twelveth in desire. David desires that

the Israelazza declared them one another of the numerous doings of the Lord. How

can someone seem praise us just someoney if they do not truly know them?

How can the Israelizza see praises to the Lord if they do not know him.

They know where he lives, so they know where David took the salt.

They know that. They're saying, after you see craisers, when you

do not take it truly, go hire the house of Lord. Come.

It does not matter if it's married Miriam. They knows us or David.

But the chief musician he invide us holler. But personal experiencer with the Lord

will see his praise, and they will you see these praises are personal.

You see somebody in church, it doesn't matter who they're affiliated with, what

denomination they're assigned to, who they belong to, who claims them and who

doesn't. When you see them sit on that pew like it wouldn't hit me,

and they ain't got a praise on their lips, and they don't know

how to clap their hands. They don't know how to worship the Lordan and

the beew, the Holiness his Spirit, and in truth you could I guarantee

you they do not have a person or experience with the Lorder. Come on,

now, I know where the Lord lives. I know where his banter

flies. I know where his name is posted. I said, I know,

and that's what our scriptures said. Seeing praises to the Lord who twelveth

it DESI it. I know God's everywhere. I know we could have church

down there at to see Sean. I know we could have church over there.

In the short word consuming, I know we could have a good time

hit McDonalds. But that's McDonald's. This is where Cloud twelveth okay house at

all. This is why I got a coming to church. So he praised

us to the Lord with twelfth in Zion. Did he not own the entire

world? Sure he did. Yeah. Did he not create all of them

other people that were considered to be outsiders? Sure he did. But the

Thomas is saying, I have made a notation right here that God is there.

God twelfth in Zion. Let me ask you a question. If you

had to laid out of church this morning, would you have felt what you

felt earlier? Was Sister old Kap Junior was singing, would you have felt

what you felt earlier? When the Holy ghostmas? Using sister Wooton? Would

you have felt that? Oh? Come on now, who wasn't to sent

me something this past week? It said? Just taking in services through social

media or through online podcasts, it'd be like just sitting in front of a

picture of a fireplace. It might look good for display, but you're not

gonna feel the emotion. You're not gonna feel the flame yourself. You're not

gonna feel the fire. I bless you a little bit of it might sound

pretty and look pretty good. I guarantee you. If you're not there,

they're missing something this generation. That's dot Peel's black Cat twelve Insild. Listen,

it don't matter what's a feel. How you thank God? That's all

I said, God twelve, I felt insild and I know that God is

here, I said, I know that God he is here. I really,

preacher, How can someone sink his praises when they don't really know him?

You know, there's a lot of people that claim to be daddy's.

They claim to be daddies, but they don't show it. They blow it.

Brother Gabriel, Brother Luther has found him daddy in you, and he

knows it because you show it. And I pray that he never blows it,

Brother Christian, Brother Titus does not really know a whole lot about his

biological daddy, but he has known you as daddy for some time now,

and you show it. He knows it because I'm as papa. At times

he calls me Papa. He's got a wonderful papa in North Carolina. And

I would not even attempt to take that papa's place. But you know that

Brother Christian is standing in the gap. So as Brother Gabriel standing in the

gap for these sons, and they do the work of a father. They

provide for them financially, they provide for their spirits. It by bringing them

to the House of God, training them and instructing them and showing them what

a dad is like. Listen, sir, just because you father a child

and bring it into this world, then it breathes its first breath right there

in his mother's lap. Does not mean you're a daddy. Yes, you're

responsible for procreation or for creating individual, but that individual is facing an eternity

in either heaven or hell. And I thank God for these that will show

themselves and prove it that they are actually daddy. I feel the holy ghost

in this house. I'm trying to tell you something. You mean, listen

to me. If that being you called daddy, it's not true biological daddy,

but he's doing more for you, and no philological daddy does yet he

is daddy. And that's how the spiritual of this world work. They want

to be your father, the thoughts of the Philistines. I want to be

your Lord. But David's making it clear. I've got one father, I

got one love and it is Jeholda. I said, that's no call up

love, Jeholde. I feel the holy ghost of this house. David's putting

an episode on the Lord. Davis desires us to declare of the numerous tuins

of the Lord. I heard a sister testify this past week, the sister

Howell, and she spoke of how God moved in her life in amazing way

and made himself known to her as her God. I'm glad that I know

who Jesus is. I heard about Jesus as a weed lad upon the lap

of my mother. I heard my Sunday school teachers teach me of who Jesus

is. I heard the pronunciation of his name. I learned how to spell

his name. I taught my grandson Mica recently, how to escape trouble by

using the name of Jesus. Brother Jesse is he await bring him up here

and demonstrate that, come here, brother Mica. I would put brother Micah

in a little hold, and I said, what is the past word?

You know how a little four and five year olds do? They peanut butter,

They say pickle, They say I'm in trouble. They say help Daddy,

and they say help Mama. They say this, and they say that.

But I told brother Micah, there is a password that you can activate

at any time. His daddy did not know this, and so his daddy

was messing around with him in the same manner. A couple of days later,

in the larger room, a brother, Jesse, wrestling with his son

and the for a little bit, not teaching him the rough house guys,

but just being a daddy and connect him with a son. And he said

he couldn't understand why Marca begin to cry out the name. How do you

get out of that? Micah, say it Jesus. And you say it.

You're not gonna get out till you say Jesus. So you're stuck right

there. Say y'all what I'm preach him. If he doesn't say Jesus,

he's not gonna get out, so he better tell death Jesus. But whatever,

Michael I gets so uncomfortable he begins to say the name Jesus, Jesse

said. After he's had no he said Jesus. Jesse had him in the

hold and said, what's the past word? And Michael was saying Jesus,

and Jesse couldn't help but release him because he was saying the name Jesus.

He wandered where to this boy and learned how to say the name Jesus.

Papa with them teaching him. You get out of the stranger, you get

out of the pickle. You get out of the pot, said, you

get out of us gets put the name Jesus. Hell, Yes, I'm

telling somebody hitting this building what you gotta have more than just the name.

He's got to be your lord, I said, making your kids he might

give your lord. That's what name the men the Lord, Cause this is

the one that then let us me. It is the Lord that keeps silent,

is the Lord the watches over us. Jesus, Jesus. There's just

something about the name Jesus. I know who he is. I know who

his name is. The name of the Lord is a strong tower. The

righteous runneth into it and are safe. Look at our texts some nine and

ten. And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee,

for thy land hast not forsaken them. That cecy there goes my car.

All you gonna do is say the name Jesus. And he ran into a

strong tower, and he got elenest trong arms of his captor. The juck

catch that, and they that know thy name, we'll put their trust into

THEE. I know whether Lord resides. He lives in our hearts, and

he shows up in the huse of God that particular location that we had designated

her to worship him and seek him. You'll sn it Burst number ten.

He trunneth in a sire. And you know that wherever God he is,

he is active. He is a god of action. God is never in

active. If you were to look at at his status, and if there

was one, there would be a green light time. And beside that green

light, who would seeing active? I said, twenty pair of hours a

day. If God had what's happened, it would be active. Oh yes,

I could a patrol in this aspen. The Lord never slimmers else to

go and get a suit. He is your God day in it. Now.

I praise him because he is active in our services. I worship him

because he is moving in our services. I'm glad that I know who Jesus

is. I'm glad that I know where he is. I'm glad that I

don't have to blow it. You know it, you show it, but

don't blow it. You're here this morning. You're tithing, you're paying offers

to God. You're being of blessing to God's ministers. You're reaching out to

the least, the lost, and the lonely. You're doing your part,

but I want us to show you something right here. It's a little blood

chiller and just about knocked the shout out of you temporarily. And Matthew,

chapter number seven, at worst number twenty three, he said, and then

will I professor to them, I never knew you. These are people that

said I knew it, I showed it, but I bought. And then

will I professor to them, I never knew you. Depart from me,

he that worked iniquity. What didn't they been doing? Sister would if you

read that seventh chapter of Saint Matthew's gospel, you'll be shocked at what they've

been doing. They've been doing horrible things, and they've been offering their babies

the paint of dead teaser idols. You see, the Lord Jesus is telling

some that on the day of Judgment, there will be some who are shockingly

surprised to find out they aren't a part of the family of God. There's

gonna be some shockingly surprised to find out that they really were not a brother

or a sister of Jesus. It's true they believed some things about Jesus to

be true. They did some good things in his name, yes, but

they did not really know him. I said that they really did not tell

him to know him, And that's what Jesus said. No, they that

labor a moron kid trying to spirits of the seed. If it be just

because that they called themselves holding us, just because of the work that a

coastal holding us up. The name God is on the marquis, let's not

make her to the house of God. It's true. They believed the name

of Jesus. They believed there was power in the name of Jesus. They

believe there was healing in the name of Jesus. But they really didn't know

him. You ever got to know somebody, something better you once you knew

them, and then once you've got to know them, you realize, Oh

boy, I don't think dearly as highly end of them as I thought I

did. Brother Philip's sister Elizabeth. Y'all fixing really no one another. You're

fixing a really no one another. And I feel like y'all all ready,

but y'all getting married Friday. You're gonna really know each other comes Saturday morning,

Sunday morning, Monday Tuesday, about two weeks later, y'all gonna really

know everything about one another. You're gonna know who praised and who doesn't,

Who struggles in their prayer life, who doesn't, who fast from time to

time? Who doesn't. These people addressed him as Lord at some point.

I know you never heard it preachs like this, But this people right here,

that Jesus spoke of its words and read the seventh chapter of the Book

of Matthew. What did Jesus say, I remember reading it earlier. Not

everyone is saithing to meet Lord Lord. They had the name, they knew

it. They showed it, they shown it, they showed it. You

know it, you show it, you fly the banner, you fly the

flag, you declare the name on the job. But are you blowing it?

Not? Everyone has said it to be Lord, laun shall enter to

the Kingdom of Heaven. Not he to do it the will of my father,

which is in heaven. They identify Jesus correctly, They addressed him properly.

But it was not enough to save him. Do you know? Even

the devil's spear and tremble, and they can correctly and properly identify Jesus has

learned in every need passer and every time that passes him has loved Lucifer and

his deacons will be in that number. I preach it to you, your

man, he might make him look God pie out in that bear Claw said

he could. He really is when he moves in your heart, when you're

praying on the backside of a desert or behind the stop in far forest,

or behind the shop on the job, and he speaks to you personally and

your rip starts quivering and you start speaking in tongues, or you feel a

hole in presence and nobody else's around here. Oh, come on, and

they alight. So it ain't a Christian rock band sing the gint the name

Jesus going in the top of how about the rena? Didn't you know you

know him? I said, you know you know him? You folks better

pray. I read a couple of months ago the preachers, the pastors are

now relied on chet bots to develop their servants. Somebody I know really well

showed me the screenshot of a sermon on the blood of Jesus. All they

did was they spoke into a chet bot that I refused it to downloads.

They said the blood of Jesus, and he said it was the most eloquent

of servants beyond that eternal spurgeon, beyond the eloquency, and Jonathan Edwards,

John Westley, there's gonna be a many a preacher stand in the pulpit and

in their future, and they're gonna speak with eloquence. They're gonna speak with

the tongues of angels and those that are in this for the hirelings and what

they can do for their ears by tickling them. They're gonna take an hook

line and seeker to the depths of the abyss. I said, they're gonna

get on the devil's hook if you're looking for your ears to be tickled.

Apostle Paul Warne the generation that he preached to, Hey, come on.

They had a lot of orators and great speakers of his generation. He said,

I came not with eloquent speech. I came with demonstration and with power

of the Holy ILSA and I want y'all have known. Right here this morning,

Jesus is saying, there's some they say Lord, not just once,

but they say it again, Lord and Lord, and they said it,

but they're not going to enter in good the Kingdom of Heaven or come on,

Jesus said, now, don't turn sideways with me. I'm the nail

man here this morning. Jesus said, unless they do the will of my

Father, they shall not enter the Kingdom of Heaven. No matter how often

they say, Lord, you could see, Lord prepare me to be a

sanctuary, peer and holy, try and true, and we're thanksgiving. I'll

be a living testimony for you. But you could blow it when Jesus said

they did not get to enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. Brother Jesse,

they blew it. They knew it, they showed it. They identify Jesus

correctly. It is true that we must confess him as Lord, brother Roua,

but we aren't saved by that affirmation. We are not saved by affirming

him as Jesus and Lord only. Jesus made it clear that he is the

one that has the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven. And Jesus made it

clear that not only must he do the will of the Father, but every

one of his brothers and sisters must do the will to the Father. And

every precious word behind them another binders is the will of the Father. It

is the mind of Christ, of all written page. And you must keep

his commandments if you love him. No matter how often you say all,

no matter how many banners you got planned in that arena or that ben you.

In the first verse of Song chapter number nine, we see that David

wrote, I will praise THEE with my whole heart. And that's why we've

been pushing so hard around here. It's not okay that ninety nine percent or

ninety nine and a half praise him with her whole heart. You have to

walk out of that building, walk right through those doors after every service with

an assurance that I praised Him with my whole heart. This is before Christ's

time. This is before he died, was crucified, died, buried,

and resurrected. This is a king that had been pleased with the latter not

to take his Holy Spirit from him. This is the king with all the

pressures of the palace. This is the king with all the stressors of society,

trying to be a cod fearing man, trying to encourage people to be

right. And he said, I've been a prais Ingim with my whole heart

with her Michael Nxon or not, I'm gonna get in there and have church.

I'm gonna praising next depends I will show what were my points? You

know it? You show it? Now blow it. David begins the salmon.

He says, I will praise the old Lord with my whole heart,

And next he says, I will show. Then he writes, I will

be glad and rejoice. In this poetic writing we find the reasons the psalm

hast had for his strong affection and adoration he showed towards the Lord. Isn't

him saving you enough for strong displays of adoration and affection? Isn't the fact

that you're no longer hanging over Hell on a thread enough to declare your praise

and your worship and to show it? Don't you blow well? Miss an

opportunity to pray temple your whole heart. David knows the needs of his brothers

and sisters. He knows the needs of humanity. What are the major needs

of humanity? Food? Water, sheltered, good health, good healthcare?

Who could not sleep? Contentment? David isn't David is a needy person,

and so are we? So why do we come to church and pretend like

we have everything together? So why do we come to church and pretend that

God has never melt us out of any circumstance that was out of hand.

Why don't we come to church and that like we're the ones ahead I wrote

together when it was busted apart at the sea, I come to church and

in college to my sole dependency is own God. My sole dependency, it's

got on charity. I don't care about the banners of a pliant from that

part or not. I couldn't be declared the name of the lie, how

dild have been cut the name of the lot, And don't need an arena

his name never need an arena. Greet up be displayed. All we've got

to do is said to day Jesus, Jesus. How many times can you

find the name Jesus in a Christian bookstore? How many times does it do

those people any good? Jesus waits on me weekly at the Mexican restrant.

In fact, Jesus seeks me out, and my wife would save a lot

to say hello. Is that corrections to how the other day she went to

save a lot? Are waited, It waits on us, and Ami goes

sought her out? Hey, miss Howell hay miss how Jesus sought her out?

Brother Jesse, But do you really know the value how the name Jesus.

Sister How was praying right here about three weeks ago, and brother Nathaniel,

we had just talked about Jesus and disabled up parking lot. But when

she started saying the name Jesus and that Jesus, she knows this Jesus is

Hispanic. He's not Caucasian, he's not African American, he's not Chinese.

And I know this about upset a lot of people. He's not written nearly

altogether Hebrew. He is God, he is God, he will always be

God. And I'm not ashamed of him. Apost A post said, I'm

not ashamed of him, or he is Gospel. It's just the house star

who whispered that name Jesus, and I declare probably did not feel a host

of heavenly angels come down and offer that name up to the lead and our

felt luck. It was well received in the courts of the Almighty God and

all the power by the name Cheese. I wish to get a personal relationship

with Cheese. I'm say, oh, somebody's gonna do that. His speaker

is name with auDA ration, with great a picture, and it will move

you. David Pims for thou hast maintained by right and calls thou settest to

the throne Church and right. David said, I'm gonna praise her because when

I desert mercy, you gave me mercy. What everybody misunderstood me, you

judged righteously. Oh my God, put the Holy ghost. David goes on

on that song, and I said, if you're reading this after new you

be blessed. David goes on to say, you rebuke the heathen, you

destroyed the wicked. You have put them out of our sight forever. You

have removed our problems. I said, you have removed to our problems.

The sunst is aware of this spectrum that God does not allow his people to

be afflicted forever by the Philip. I said, Tom, Let's not allow

him the people to be afflicted up forever. The sun that knows that the

Lord number persakes those that seat, kid, You get it now. That's

why it's imported. That's your seat, kid, because we get called up.

Hold that name. He will asks her. It is hard. That's

why Mary was in the garden and then in the two huh, where is

he? Where is he? She was calling after him her soul was crying

out after my soul pants, after you, Lord. What would I do

without you? Lord? In our text, he said, and they that

know thy name will put to trust in me. For thou Lord, hast

not forsaken them that seek Thee. There is no promise for those that do

not seek him. You know it, you show it, but you're blowing

it. Don't blow it. I'm preaching this morning a sermon title, don't

blow it. My mom and dad, my pastors, they never had to

lead me to prayer. They never had to woo me to prayer, they

never had to call me to prayer. Because when I truly got saved,

I loved him and I wanted to commune with him, and I wanted to

die his table, and I wanted a feast at his table. That's why

I've never had a problem attending a church where the truth is preached and being

promoted and even enforced, because I want to be where the Lord is.

I don't want anything to do with that place that has Icabad on the banner,

Ichabod on the marquis, and where God is no longer moving. It

doesn't matter if it's great Grandpa's Oedipus Grandpa's church. If God is not actively

moving, that is simple. God is not there. He is not the

lord of the house. Time and again throughout history we have seen and even

in biblical history, that those people that called themselves the children of God,

that declared to have the House of God, whether tiber, knuckle or temple,

God would allow when they tainted it, He would allow it to be

raised and destroyed. The last time is when Jesus prophesied to his disciples and

those that were listening. He said, see that temple right there. He

said, it's going to be raised to the ground. Tidus and his army

come in and done exactly what Jesus said would happen. I thank God for

this building this morning. I thank God for a God in the pastor I

thank God for a wonderful church. David could say all of that too,

but David got personal. I feel like we're coming to a close. Even

though David is in a time of distress. If you'll read that chapter,

you'll see he feels like he's at the gates of hell. He feels like

his enemies and foes have taken action against him. But here's what he says,

I trust in the Lord. My confidences that the Lord, the psalmist

knows that the hand of the Lord will appear at any moment with a fist

of righteous indignation and fiery judgment. The Lord will avenge. He is on

to cry unto him day and night. It's true that there are periods of

time and any child of God's life when they seem to experience more than their

fair share of challenges and afflictions. To name a few, Sister Howell's physical

conditions, Brother Philip's physical condition, Sister Cheryl's physical condition. They lost children

of several people in this building, chronical sons and daughters that have been at

a church for twenty something years. And the list goes on and on and

on and on and on. I'm sure every child of God prays it wants

the Lord to step in into every situation and intervene in their behalf true right.

Well, sure he does. We want him to do it immediately.

He doesn't always do it immediately, but he will do it eventually. I

feel like he will do it momentarily. He will intervene. That's what David

was saying. I see that God will not allow the enemy to afflict his

people forever if his people are seeking him. When Job was going through what

he was going through, Joe just did going to pike side of the desert,

sitting down in the corner and pout. You can tell that Job was

searching his soul. He was trying to spirits. He was facing opposition from

his wife, yes, but he was also searching after God. Verse number

nine said, the Lord is a refuge for the old press, a refuge

in the time of trouble. The name of the Lord is a strong tower.

Young men, Are you praying on a drive to work? Sisters on

that commute to work? Are you praying as you guide your house? Are

you praying? I remember preaching right here about sixteen years ago, one Sunday

night. I will never forget it. Before service in prayer, the Lord

has spoke to me and said, God sees you when you're folding them close

and washing laundry in that lugery room, and the Holy This is gonna come

by and help you. Assistant whoops said that it just happened. It's been

happening ever since. The Lord knows his He knows those who belonged to him.

I don't have time to finish preaching this message. I bore my heart

out to you all today. How many believe that we can have confidence in

the Lord and He will see us through every trial circumstances. Its version Hebrews

thirteen and verse number five said, let your conversation be without covetousness, and

be content with such things as you have, For he has said, I

will never leave thee nor for safety. Verse six goes on to say,

so that we may boldly say, the Lord is my helper, and I

will not fear what man shall do to me. If you have a spirit

of covetousness, you're not going to be seeking the Lord. How does that

tie in? Pastor thank you for asking? Because as long as you're actively

seeking other things and not putting him first, these other things will not come

to you, They will not be added unto you. You have to seek

the Lord first. I want to be real plain and kind of blunt here.

There's no way it's the will of God that you get on YouTube and

study the coming of the Lord and what these non sanctified preachers have to say

about it. It's not the will of God that you live in the spirit

of fear because can't Christmas. That's one of their prophets, can't Christmas.

I'm not mistaken. It seemed like he's affiliated with the Church of God Cleveland.

I know he's Pentecostal. He's been around for years. I heard of

him years ago. I haven't heard anything that man preach in many years.

I never really heard him preach at all, but I remember he was some

kind of crazy prophet, and I can name some others. The old timers

used to not be afraid to throw names. But it's not the will of

God for you to sit in your house for hours on end every day listening

to some preacher tell you when he thinks Russian China's gonna do this, and

when Jesus is coming back. You ought to area your face in the Book

of Revelation if the spirit of God that's in you will tell you to listen

to them false prophets. I remember that book eighty eight Reasons Why Jesus Will

Come Back in eighty eight, and a bunch of people put their noses in

that book, and they read it, and they talked from it, and

they preached it that There were a lot of people that were embarrassed when Jesus

didn't come back in eighty eight. And there's people in this world that have

prophesied for the last two years Jesus is coming in six months. And if

somebody in this building or anybody that visits and comes into this building and names

the name of the Lord, and they don't depart from iniquity, and they

say, I know Jesus is coming by the end of the year. You

get a calendar and you write what prophet or prophet has said that, and

you write it down. And when he doesn't come back in twenty twenty three

and they've missed to encourage him, to go out there to fire force and

put their face in a stump and pray until the true spirit of God comes

upon them and teaches them that what matters is what's going to happen after he

comes. About after Matthew seven, the words of Jesus, you said,

Lord, lord, brother, how it was my pastor the holy gush was

moving. Yeah, but I told you nicotine's wrong. Yeah, but I

told you alcohol is wrong. I told you that the things of this world,

the adornments, are wrong. I told you that drug addiction is wrong.

I told you that having evil communications is wrong. I told you that

an evil appearance for things that look wrong is wrong. That men and women

that are unmarried do not shack up. We don't need to be worried about

the day that Jesus is coming. No man, do I need to preach

the word of God. You've looked at too much? Profound? Hello?

Are you profound? No man? No man knoweth to day nor the album.

We know the season, but to God, one day is as a

thousand years to us. So I don't know what season within humanity we're in.

I do feel like the coming of the Lord is imminent, that it

can happen at any time, But I'm just as concerned about him coming back

in the next ten seconds as I am a six months? Six months?

What's that got through? It is six months? You know why? You're

trying to pinpoint it because you want to just stretch it out, but you're

about to blow. It went over some people's head until right now you know

it. You should it, don't you? Boy? Oh God? I

feel the Holy Ghost in this place. He didn't know what to do.

Good and do it did not to him? It is sick. Let's stand

so I don't get it on tense again panic because Jesus is coming back in

that six months. That does not alarm me at all. What alarms me

is the possibility that he might come back before Brother Jesse gets done playing an

alter it serve as song I'll appearing and singing. That's what concerns means that

maybe this ticker is fixing us. Stop ticket before I get the Popeye's I

might die, Brother Jesse, when y'all were little, you will remember this.

I would pray with y'all for every night at your doorway, and did

it for many years. Jesus, whether you come or call, help us

to be ready. Oh I feel a whole diversed in this place. I

do. I feel like we'd have all of a sudden realized exactly some that

God's speaking to in this building? Lord Lord, did we not hold science?

Did we not pass up tracks? Did we not preach? Did we

not teach? Did we not tithe? Did we not give an offered?

The church has been full of hypocrites for years, not this one. And

the church has been full of people that are full of faith for years.

The church at large. He promised to never leave us nor forsake us in

our times of distress, but he also expects us to be obedient. Do

you know the Lord? You need to look at our text again, jes

see, would you come to the piano? Brother? I have so much

more to preach. Do you know why you don't have any trust or confidence?

Why you're nervous because you're not serving the Lord? If you're doing right,

you're not afraid of his return. I'm expected it, It's imminent.

It's upon us. I am anticipated. I'm watching, I'm lifting up my

head, I redemptions, drawing. I feel like shouting, not panicking.

I preached a sermon a couple of years ago. It's getting brighter, not

darker. We're fixing the lead this place. But what I do not want

to see happen is Jesus tell me or anyone else departed from me, the

worker of iniquity. Let me remind you again what had they been doing.

They had been in church, they had declared him to be lord twice,

Lord Lord, but they didn't really know him. You know it, you

show it, and God bless you for that. I appreciate it. But

if you don't care for you're gonna blow it at It's all of a sudden

please don't blow it. Is there somebody in this building this morning that would

come forward and kneel and the older and pray and say, you know,

Lord, I realize I have a name I did spiritually. I need a

revival. I need a personal relationship with the Lord. And the first must

begin with a recounter, an experience. Is there somebody? How about a

girl in her late teens, how about a young woman in her mid twenties.

I don't know, having a young man in his thirties, having a

young girl or a young boy and elder. Is there's somebody. The more

I know him, the more I trust him. That can be your testimony.

The more I get to know him, the more I have confidence in

him. He takes care of my needs. He shelters me. I'm safe

and secure. He provides for me. He promised to never leave me,

he promised to never forsake me. And he's a rewarder of them that diligently

seek him. Let's obey the whole that goes. He asked you to think,

to turn into him, stop the captain's cheese, seek him, seek

him. See you can't call it baby, calla calls Jesus is your stays

so cheese Jesus days you know, dressful cheese Jesus cheap Jesus side can cheers

by principles cheese Jesus, yes, stays cheers cheese. When I was sitting,

say swot off somewhere, say raday turned on me and my years came

up drank holly wait. I say we need to seeking church. He's commanded

his people everywhere to seeking. He's everywhere. Shop while he may be,

get out esk you while you have presents, while you haven't, while you

haven't to do some color while you still have your right cold. Without Jesus,

I just fuck ward war we heard Jesus and no talk down Jesus.

Re feels to leave on day happy for the without Jesus. Just say so

without Jesus, sverything it do a just on used to be when I will

see then said I'm stood off somewhere, the pretty, all the pleasures that

he brought, They time on me, will my kee my grain day came
