The shadow of the Shepherd - Bro Justin Roadcap 8-6-2023

We need that annoying. This morning, we thank you for your prayers.

I thank you that the pastor, sister how our home, the brothers and

sisters are back, and we do love and appreciate them. And I'm I'll

be honest with you. I don't covet the bullpit, but I do counting

and honor in the privilege to serve under him, the minister under him.

You'll you'll maybe understand that a little better as we get into the preaching,

and I don't know that I will. And just the strong presence of the

Lord this morning, this is what we need. This is what we need,

and this is what helps the church grow and prosper, to be fruitful.

And so we'll be reading from the Book of Acts, chapter number five.

I love and appreciate Bethel. We we do love y'all. Great teaching

this morning, Brother Wallace, these great brethren. I appreciate our preacher.

Whether we're workers together, we are workers together with him. And I don't

want to compete with none of my brothers. I don't want to have that

evil out of envy. I've seen what it can do to a church,

and I thank God for the Man of God this morning I thank God for

our pastor and our shepherd. If you'll be looking at verse number eleven kind

of on the heels of something that happened that even our pastor had mentioned two

people we're about to pollute the church, but God removed them, to see

that they were smitten of God. Peter didn't remove these people. The Holy

Ghost removed in a nisasa fire. But we're going to be looking at verse

number eleven. Who versus number fifteen. This morning, and fear came upon

all the church, and upon as many as heard these things, these things

that we've heard this morning, will be a great fear among us this morning,

not to allow those spirits to overtake us. Amen. And by the

hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people, and

they were all with one accord. Did you feel like unity is important this

morning? Amen? They were in one accord and Solomon's porch, and of

the rest Durst. No man joined himself to them, but the people magnified

them, and believers were the more added to the Lord. I believe the

church ought to grow. Amen. Believers were added to the Lord multitudes,

both men and women. Verse number fifteen, if you'll highlight that Texas weren't

in so much that they brought forth the sick under the streets and laid them

on the beds and couches. That at the least I want to I want

to focus on this just for a moment. The shadow of Peter passing by

might overshadow some of them. You may be seated in the presence of the

Lord. I'm going to read a co text this morning. I felt like

the Lord also laid this on our heart. To go with this message,

I feel like Pastor really confirmed all that the Lord laid on my heart this

morning. And Pastor even mentioned this. But Peterson in chapter five his first

epistle, the elders, which are among you? I exhort who I'm also

an elder. You know pastors are elder. Here he's the chief elder of

this church. Amen. And Peter's talking to these other elders. He said,

I'm a witness of the sufferings of Christ, also a partaker of the

glory that shall be revealed. He told them to feed the flock of God

which is among you, taking the oversight thereof not by constraint, but willingly,

not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind. Neither's being Lord's

pastor mentioned this this morning over God's heritage, but being in samples examples to

the flock. What an example we have in our pastor this morning. And

when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that

fateth not away shaken, pastor of shake shaken under the presence. So when

the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown as glory that fateth

not awake. Verse five. Likewise, ye younger, submit yourself unto the

elder. It's required a submission. Are we gonna submission? Submit ourselves of

what pastors said this morning? Are we gonna rebel against him? We're gonna

to repel against the pastors, really to rebel against the Lord. Likewise,

you younger, submit yourself to the elder. Yea. And all of you

be subject one to another bl oath with humility, for God resisted the proud,

and give a grace to the humble. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty

Head of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all

your care upon him, for He cared for you. Be sober, be

vigilant, because your adversary, the devil, walketh about as a roaring line,

seeking whom he may devour. The devils after all of us. This

morning, the Bible said, whom you resist, steadfast in the faith,

knowing the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren who are in the world.

But the God of all grace, who hath called us under his eternal glory.

God's calling us under his eternal glory by his son Jesus Christ, after

you've suffered a while, make you perfect strength and establish you. Said on

you. That's what pastors trying to do this morning. That's what God's trying

to do through our pastor. And if I could preach just for a few

moments this morning, I want to preach on thinking about the shadow of Peter

and submitting ourselves to the Elder. I want to preach the shadow of the

Shepherd, under the Shadow of the Shepherd, and I'll probably forego the the

introduction. We were very familiar about the Book of Acts. It begins with

Christ's departure and the descension of the Holy Ghost. How he empowered the church,

how people took the Great Commission seriously and under the power, and under

the annawning of the Holy Ghost, they began to evangelize the world. And

because of that we're here this morning, Amen. And the church is still

going and still moving, Praise God. And we're still seeing folks added to

the church daily such as should be saved. And let me say this morning,

we can't do this without the Holy Ghost. This morning, I wouldn't

attempt to preach without the Holy Ghost, s Amen. And are many things

I wouldn't attempt to do in this life if I didn't have that guiding hand

Praise God directing my life. And so we need his help this morning.

But I want to focus this morning kind of kind of looking at them.

The day we kind of we kind of appreciate our pastor and we took up

an offering. And the Man of God this morning, he's not creedy,

he's not selfish. This morning, he wants to see folks helped. Amen.

He's not seeking glory or praise or limelight. But if I could honor

the Man of God just for a few moments this morning and and really let

us sense the gravity of what has been said already, I really had nothing

to add to what he has said. But this will confirm what God laid

on my heart today. Amen. Amen. And I appreciate your prayers.

And when you look at this chapter, we see that the church crows despite

of the opposition. Amen. And we look at a man who is in

this part of our text. Amen. We talk about Peter and Peter being

the rock. Amen. I believe somebody preached on that not long ago,

may have been our pastor. But he pointed out Peter. He said,

you're seeing, oh man, I know, I know what he preached on.

Prayers. God. He talked about those tongue talkers. Amen. And

and God gave people names. Amen. Jesus gave me Amen. And then

Pastor preached from from the Book of Acts. And it wasn't long ago that

he had us reading the Book of Acts incessantly, perpetually during that time of

great revival. Amen. God, God is leading this man, and this

man is leading this people. See that. And that's that's really the gist

of what I'm what I'm preaching to us this morning. Nothing nothing new,

Amen. But Jesus called Peter a rock. Amen. And and I thought

about this verse in Isaiah thirty to a man shall be as a hiding place

from the wind that the covert from the tempest as rivers of water to try

place in the shadow of a great rock in a weary land. So I'm

supposed that they've spoke of a king that would come and read and righteousness.

That they supposed that maybe it'll be prophetic of an earthly king like has a

kid, but really points to the Messiah, that Jesus Christ, who is

amen our rock phrase call, and here's our stand King Jesus. My brother

called early said, it's a rock in a weary land, and praise God.

But there have been men in my life. He mean that had been

a stay for me. He mean had been a shelter for me. He

been. And I thanked God for the shadow of the Man of God this

morning, and a shadow of that man that praises to me and helps me,

and God's me as God leads him, and we're to follow him as

he follows Christ. I thank God for the shadow of the shepherd a man.

Amen, he's a man that leads by a sample. Praise God,

Hellelujah. He been. Paul told young Timothy. He said, let not

let no man despise your youth. Hemen, I don't really look at him

as a young man. I look at him as a learned man and as

a wise man who has seen things. I looked at him as someone who

could impart wisdom. Even if I stood up here and hemen, maybe I

was twice my age. I just turned forty to a couple of days ago.

But even if I was eighty four, I would consider him a wise

man and an elder over me. Amen. Yeah, he said, be

an example to the believers in word and conversation and charity and spirit and faith

and purity. Again, our pastor leads by example, and we're to follow

him as he follows Christ. We are to receive that instruction. And when

I think about a shadow, not thinking about it when it when it speak

of being in the shadow of someone they think of, you know you're missing

out, or or you know they excel you always being under their shadow.

I'm speaking in the positive, Amen, because I want you to Amen.

Pastor would say something like this, look at your neighbor and say, hey,

neighbor, Amen, the shadow and the shepherd. There is safety,

Amen, there is shelter, there is shade. Amen. I don't posire

his position this morning. Amen, Come on now, because I know he

has a target on his life. He has a calling on his life,

and they calling is not from me. This morning. He has been called,

he has been appointed, He has been a norning to lead this people

and men now got that. I'm not envious of that man, and I

am willing to stand in the shadow for the Holy Ghost this morning. Hey,

man and your preachers, Though we don't desire the live loved the Lord,

I'm content, Amen, being the Bible stead pastor. Amen. It

is it is an honor. It really is, Amen that you would share

this death so much fire. We have received so much of the meat of

the Word of God, even none of us this morning, and there are

some meet but Amen, I thought about hey, being a spiritual meeting or

this morning praise God. Hey, but we gotta be the Hey. We

gotta amen, We reward and we don't bite and devour one another. Amen.

I'm not trying to bite and devour anybody anymore. Helujah. Amen.

It is often seen in a negative concept when you look up that definition,

that term, or you know an idiom, Amen anything, think about it

and being in the negat You're always gonna be in the shadow. Even but

I look at somebody we can follow in his steps. And I look at

somebody that's leading back sample. Praise God. And so I want to speak

and preach in the positive. Amen. In the shadow of the shepherd,

there is safety, there is protection, Praise God. Amen. Is that

all right? Amen? And I thank God for the pastor and all this

is coming from my heart. Amen. We kind of a displaced last night.

And I thank God for my mother in law who put us up or

put up with us, I don't know, Amen, but she opened her

doors because I don't have any ac Amen, don't come on now. So

Amen, I kind a battle to get here, Amen, to study and

to seek out with com having to preach. Amen. And I thank God

for a good mother law. Amen. Praise God. Hallelu I. Thank

God for a good pastor this morning. But God has sent this man to

lead this people. Amen. Our pastor faithfully preaches, faithfully cares, and

he is faithful even in times of affliction and persecution. Amen. He is

a faithful watchman who wards us hamen, admonishes us, and he does what

has past to protect us from the assaupt and the sales of the enemy.

Amen. Amen, I read this quote from a woman who was sought refuge

in the time of war, and hey, don't you know we're engaged in

a spiritual warfare. And then worry the battle praised God. You understand there's

a battle even going on at the battal hole his church. Amen, we

are soldiers an, We're to be together in this fight. Amen. We

don't fight against each other. Amen, we fight with each other. Amen.

And we fight behind our leader, the Man of God. Amen.

I mean Amen, I read this quote and she said this during the time

of war. She said, I thought Israel would not balls here in the

church. They really We're not safe anywhere, Amen, But there is safety.

This is a sanctual weary Amen, and their safety in the shadow of

the Shepherd, the Man of God and the shadow of the Almighty in your

same man Heluiah. Well, she said, I didn't think Israel and pamis

here Hamen in a church. So we're taking refuge in the shadow of the

pastor my God, have helujah. Amen. Pakistani woman could say that,

Are we praying for his protection because he's doing his best to protect us.

Amen. Listen, we must hear and we must heed. We must o't

pay him. And the Holy Ghost said, and it's right here, we

must acknowledge him. Amen, I feel the Holy Ghost. That's when the

Holy Ghost told us, if we acknowledge him, we'll prosper, we'll grow,

we'll be blessed. Amen. Be what God's blessed our life. Amen.

too long, and I really didn't feel like I had to preach this morning,

but I hope it benefit us. Jesus said in Luke twelve and thirty

I hope this morning and closing that there's no one here, Amen, it's

tempted to go astray. Brothers say you preach with a burden. Brother,

Amen, I hope and pray there's no one tempted to go astraight like alway,

like sheet. You need to stay under the shadow of the church.

Listen to me. That woman I quoted, she found shelter in safety in

the church. I don't know her profession. She saw something in the shadow

of that church, in the shadow of that pastor, and she felt like

she was safe. And you need to stay under the shadow of the church,

the pastor, and most of all, into the shadow of the Almighty.

This morning. You know what it's a dangerous world out there. I

said, it's a dangerous world out there. Amen. There are wolves,

but thank God there's a watchman watching out for the wolves. Amen. There's

a wicked temple out there. It's not safe out there in the world.

Amen, you're just open pray for the enemy. Amen. But I'm telling

you what, Amen, if God cuts any one of us off of Amen,

it won't be him. You hurt him this morning. God would have

that would cut us off. Amen. But I would pray they're not a

spirit of anyone in here. Amen is even thinking about going away? Amen.

should have done it by now. We probably should have hit the dollars.

Amen. It's not safe out there, Amen, but there is safety under

the shadow of the Shepherd, under the shadow of the Almighty. And I

feel like this morning, we need to Amen, gather around the others.
