We've been talking about Psalms 23.
-
How many of you have been enjoying that?
-
Amen. And so let's go back over
-
tonight and finish this out for our last Wednesday night that
-
we'll be talking about this. And you know, we've been reading
-
out of Psalms 23 verses one through 6 and it says this the
-
Lord is my shepherd to feed, to guide and to shield me.
-
I shall not want. He lets me lie down in green
-
pastures. He leads me besides still
-
waters. He refreshes and restores my
-
soul. He leads me in paths of
-
righteousness for his name's sake.
-
And even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of
-
death, I will fear no evil. For you are with me, Your rod to
-
protect me, and your staff to guide me.
-
They comfort and console me. You prepare a table before me in
-
the presence of my enemies. You have anointed and refreshed
-
my head with oil, Hallelujah, and my cup overflows.
-
Surely goodness and mercy and unfailing love shall follow me
-
all the days of my life, and I shall dwell forever throughout
-
all my days in the house and in the presence of the Lord.
-
Hallelujah. And so we have gone through
-
Psalms 23 and we have went Scripture line upon line, so to
-
speak, precept upon precept, breaking out every verse in
-
here. And last week we stopped on
-
realizing that He has anointed us.
-
Amen. He has anointed us and what that
-
anointing was for, Amen. And we realized that that
-
anointing was to break off, come on every yoke of bondage.
-
It it was the anointing, the burden, removing power of God,
-
Hallelujah. And that's what the anointing
-
was there for, which came with the word fatness, right?
-
We talked about that and so it's very important that we finish
-
out the rest of that verse because we see that we were
-
anointed, right? But then that same verse goes on
-
to say that our cup runs over. Amen.
-
Our cup runs over glory to God. So the anointing is twofold.
-
The anointing is there. Come on to break every burden
-
and destroy every yoke of bondage that maybe have been or
-
shouldn't be now. But sometimes we know it can
-
happen again, that we're yoked back into something, right?
-
Or we have been burdened into something and it's become a
-
stronghold in our life again. But the anointing is always
-
there to be able to come and break that off of you, Amen.
-
And it's in you, It's in you, Amen.
-
So again, we have to recognize not only was there an anointing,
-
right, but that anointing also can represent your cup
-
overflowing. Your cup overflowing, meaning
-
the anointing also can bring a full supply in your life.
-
The anointing is there so that your cup never does have to run
-
dry. Amen.
-
So that it never has to run dry so that so to speak, you can
-
always live a full life. You can always live a full life.
-
You can live in the fullness of God with a full supply of
-
everything that we have need of everything.
-
Amen that remember the very first scripture.
-
He says the Lord is my shepherd, I shall not what what and it
-
said that we shouldn't have to want for any good thing.
-
We shouldn't have to lack in any good thing.
-
So again, the reason why is because we have an anointing to
-
be able to tap in to receive come on a full abundance or a
-
supply so that our cup will never have to run dry.
-
Hallelujah that we can stay full of oil.
-
Hallelujah, glory to God, we can stay full and you know, he even
-
this is just a side note, just because it came up by the Holy
-
Ghost is we talked about the virgins that in the in the hour
-
that we ought to be keeping our what our lamps full of oil and
-
who's responsible for that we are.
-
He's given us the anointing so that at all times we can tap
-
into that anointing and keep that oil flowing fresh.
-
Hallelujah. It's always can be fresh in our
-
life and all we have to do is stir it up, right?
-
All we have to do is stir up that anointing that is already
-
been given to us. Hallelujah, glory to God, so
-
that we can always stay full. Come on.
-
We don't have to be tired. We don't have to be rundown.
-
We don't have to be burdened with all kinds of cares in this
-
life. We don't have to be concerned
-
about situations. Know what we need to learn to do
-
is just stir up the oil on the inside of us.
-
Stir it up, tap into the well of oil that's right there.
-
That bubbling brook. Glory to God, that fool's gold.
-
Come on. What is that old show?
-
You know, green anchors, the Beverly Hillbillies, the black
-
gold Texas tea. Am I showing my I'm 19 here,
-
guys. Anyway, so we ought to be
-
stirring up the oil that's been given to us and keeping it
-
fresh, Amen. Keeping it fresh.
-
And at any time it seems like it's running dry, we can just
-
tap into it, Amen. Tap into it.
-
Glory to God. So he lets us know, listen, my
-
cup runs over. It's running over, living in the
-
overflow. We're going to sing that at the
-
end. It just came up, so get ready,
-
Tabitha. Live and chance.
-
Living in the overflow. This is what this means.
-
My cup runneth over. Come on.
-
This is what this means, that we should be living in this flow of
-
the spirit, the anointing that's been given to us.
-
Hallelujah. And so another meaning for cup
-
is also portion. It also means portion.
-
You know what this means? We all have a portion that's
-
been given to us. Nobody has more of a portion
-
than anybody else. We've all been given a portion.
-
We've all been given also. This means portion.
-
Here. We can also say we've all been
-
given an inheritance. This is our inheritance.
-
This is our portion. This is what's been allotted to
-
us. This is what this is meaning,
-
that we've all been given a portion, we've all been given an
-
inheritance, we've all been allotted something from God that
-
belongs to us and He wants it to be in the overflow.
-
He wants it to be in abundance. Hallelujah.
-
Whatever the portion is, He wants an abundance of it in your
-
life. Hallelujah, glory to God.
-
So that is what this means by my cup.
-
This cup, it's my portion, my inheritance, something that has
-
been allotted to me, that belongs to me or to every child
-
of God. Hallelujah.
-
Now let's look at Psalm 16. It says the Lord is the portion
-
of mine inheritance and of my cup.
-
Thou maintainest my lot. Hallelujah, glory to God.
-
Now let's look at that in the amplified.
-
I want to read it out of the amplified because this is really
-
what I want you to get. The Lord is the portion of my
-
inheritance, my cup. Here it is.
-
He's all I need. See, He is your portion.
-
The fact that we've been given Him, He is our portion.
-
He is our inheritance. He is our everything.
-
Everything that He has belongs to us.
-
Hallelujah. Everything that He has belongs
-
to us. Glory to God.
-
So He is all I need. He is all.
-
Every human heart is looking for one thing, and that is for God
-
Himself to fill it up. And when He fills it up, He
-
wants it overflowing. He don't want you barely
-
thinking you're saved. No, He wants you to know,
-
without a shadow of a doubt, come on, that you belong to Him.
-
That he is your Shepherd. And you hear his voice come on,
-
and no other you will follow. And so he says.
-
He is all I need. Listen to what it says.
-
You support my lot in the Amplified.
-
You support my lot. You know what that means?
-
Whatever that has been a portion to me as my inheritance, he
-
supports it. Glory to God, we got child
-
support happening right here on a whole nother level that he
-
said he'd never let his seed have to beg for bread.
-
Come on, you don't have to worry about him leaving you as an
-
orphan for someone else to have to foster you or take care of
-
you because he fully supports his children.
-
Glory to God, you have a portion.
-
I haven't heard one. Amen from my biggest
-
cheerleader. Oh glory to God.
-
OK, I may need to do that and get A and get something.
-
I can turn it down when I want to.
-
Anyway, let's go to Psalms 142 before I get in trouble.
-
Verse five. He might do another cartwheel up
-
here to try to prove me wrong. If you, if you know, you know,
-
if you, if you weren't here, you missed it on Sunday.
-
So Psalms 42 five says this. I cried out to you, O Lord, I
-
said, you are my refuge, my portion in the land of the
-
living. So we don't have to wait till we
-
die to get to heaven to get our blessed inheritance.
-
And in the sweet by and by. Come on.
-
No, there's a portion and an inheritance right here in the
-
land of the living that belongs to us.
-
And it's an overflowing portion, an overflowing inheritance that
-
belongs to us. Glory to God.
-
And then let's look where it says my portion in the land of
-
the living. See portion here also means
-
broad 'cause you talking about territory.
-
Amen. Come on, there's a broad portion
-
that belongs to us. There's a broad piece of
-
territory that belongs to us. The earth.
-
Come on, the meek, what shall inherit the earth?
-
There's a portion that belongs to us, and it is broad, and it
-
also means it is wealthy and it is an abundance of a place that
-
belongs to us to walk into. You see all that He wants us to
-
have in this life as believers fully supplied, fully supplied
-
with all resources of everything that he says belongs to us.
-
It should be overflowing in our life.
-
You know what joy should be overflowing in our life Come on,
-
the love of God should be overflowing in our life.
-
The forgiveness of God should be overflowing in our life.
-
Come on the the strength of God should be overflowing in our
-
life, right? What the full provision of
-
everything that we have need of should be overflowing in our
-
life. Peace should be overflowing in
-
our life. Everything that he says a child
-
of God can walk in should be flowing in our life and
-
overflowing. Amen.
-
Because there's an abundant place that belongs to us in
-
Christ. That's what that means.
-
There's an abundant place that belongs to us in Christ.
-
Psalm 66, here it is. Psalm 6612 says this.
-
Thou has caused men to ride over our heads.
-
We went through the fire and through the water, glory to God.
-
But thou brought us out into a wealthy place.
-
Hallelujah, He brought us out into a wealthy place, and that
-
place belongs to us today. Hallelujah, it belongs to us
-
today. Look at Philippians chapter 1,
Philippians 1 chapter mention
-
Philippians chapter 1 and verse 19 out of the amplified.
Philippians 1 chapter mention
-
This has been a scripture that I've meditated on.
-
I've brought this up multiple times in I've ministered on it
-
in the last few years and in our prayer times.
-
I've brought it up multiple times, Philippians 119 and the
-
amplified says it this for I know with confidence that this
-
will turn out for my deliverance and spiritual well-being through
-
your prayers and the Super abundant supply of the Spirit
-
because remember, we're still talking about a supply of the
-
spirit or the anointing the oil, come on.
-
So there is a super abundant supply of the Spirit of Christ,
-
which upholds me, glory to God. So you know what that means.
-
No matter what we're walking through, come on, if we'll just
-
go and call out to the Lord, our Good Shepherd, our Great
-
Shepherd, come on, the Chief Shepherd.
-
In situations and times that we're going through through
-
prayer, all we need to know is there is a super abundant supply
-
of the Spirit during that time in your life, an overflowing
-
supply for you in that season in your life or whatever difficulty
-
you may be going through, Whatever situation you may go
-
through, if you will just call on the name of the Lord and tap
-
in to the supply of the Spirit, Hallelujah.
-
You'll walk through it as if it never affected you, Hallelujah.
-
All because of the anointing upon your life when you tap into
-
it. Hallelujah.
-
Now look at Second Corinthians, Second Corinthians Chapter 9 and
2 Corinthians 9 chapter mention
-
verse 8. This is that supply of the
-
Spirit that he's talking about. 2nd Corinthians 98 it says, and
-
God is able to make all grace, every favor because we're going
-
to be talking about that in a minute.
-
All grace, every favor and earthly blessing come to you in
-
what? An abundance, an abundance.
-
So there is a full supply, an abundant supply of grace because
-
grace is attached to the Spirit. They're inseparable.
-
Grace is attached to the Spirit. Hallelujah.
-
So you will be able to tap into the Spirit of God, which will
-
burst forth the grace of God in an abundant supply.
-
And whatever you're going through, and look what He says,
-
every favor and earthly blessing will come to you in an abundance
-
so that you may always say always under all circumstances,
-
say all circumstances, regardless of the need, Say it.
-
Come on, have complete sufficiency in everything.
-
Hallelujah. That is that full supply, a
-
complete sufficiency in everything that you have need of
-
for what? What every circumstance
-
regardless. If you'll just call on the
-
shepherd, Hallelujah. Oh, if you'll call on him.
-
If you'll just call on his name and say, Lord, I need a full
-
supply of your grace, Come on. I need to tap into this
-
anointing during this situation instead of letting it get us
-
down. Come on, let the anointing
-
bubble up from the inside. Glory to God and help you ride
-
over it like an edifice and rise up with wing wings like an
-
eagle. Come on and let him be your
-
strength and soar over the circumstance and situation.
-
Hallelujah. This is what Psalms 23 is
-
talking about. Amen.
-
And so he says for every thing you'll have a full sufficiency
-
being completely self-sufficient.
-
Oh, I like that. self-sufficient in him.
-
Not self-sufficient and relying on your own works on your own
-
self, but self-sufficient and relying on the grace of God and
-
the supply of the anointing so that it can overflow in your
-
life. Come on, glory to God and have
-
an abundance for every good work and act of charity.
-
Look at that, anything that God is needing for us to do this is
-
in relation and why your cup can overflow where you think there's
-
lack. He's all sufficient so that I
-
can believe Him, so that my cup, come on, can overflow, so that I
-
can do what it is that needs to be done for Him.
-
For every good work, then He's asking us to partake in
-
Hallelujah. Glory to God.
-
He wants us. He wants our cup overflowing.
-
Come on, put your hands like this cup.
-
It isn't that what it's called. And every time you get in a
-
circumstance or a situation, just cup your hands and say,
-
Lord, I'm going to look at the cup here and imagine it
-
overflowing. I'm not going to look at it
-
being empty. And I'm not going to look at it
-
being half full. No, I'm going to look at it as
-
overflowing. Hallelujah.
-
This is just a little reminder, you know, these things are
-
actually practical, relevant teachings for your everyday
-
life. And I can guarantee you if the
-
Holy Ghost would remind you of these things during situations
-
and you actually apply it, guess what's going to happen?
-
You're going to have the victory because His Spirit lives within
-
me so I can walk. Come on, it's my victory.
-
It's my victory. It is your victory.
-
The fact that the Holy Spirit can remind you of the word of
-
God can remind you of things I'll never forget when we were
-
youth pastors. And you know, Pastor Earl is
-
still even creative today where he's doing cartwheels and riding
-
bikes through the sanctuary and, you know, all kinds of
-
demonstrations. Those demonstrations are to get
-
charged within you for a practical teaching so that you
-
can live it out and the Holy Ghost can remind you.
-
Now wait a minute. What did Pastor Earl say about
-
that bike when he was riding through about if your faith
-
seems a little shaky because you hadn't really been in faith in a
-
while, but you can hop on that bike again and just start
-
peddling. Come on.
-
And the more you peddle, the stronger your faith can get.
-
Glory to God. But anyway, I remember you know
-
him as youth pastors and we would use all kinds of crazy
-
things to try to lodge into teenagers brains, you know,
-
praise the Lord and there was a drink.
-
So be is there still drinks that those drinks today Sobeys Well,
-
it was really popular, popular, you know, when he was youth
-
pastoring then back years ago. And so he would bring those that
-
he brought that drink up Sobey and had a message on so be it,
-
so be it means yes, whatever the Amen, so be it means Amen.
-
So whatever the Lord has said, so be it.
-
We can do it, right? And I mean, you would, I mean,
-
those teenagers come and then I think you even brought Sobeys
-
for some of them to drink and stuff that night.
-
But I'm going to tell you for years they would come up and
-
remember that Sobeys. So be it.
-
Amen. Yes, Lord, you can do it.
-
So your cup needs to overflow. So next time a situation takes
-
place, cup your hands and call on the name of the Lord.
-
Come on. So John 1010 says that the thief
-
comes only in order to steal, kill and destroy.
-
But listen to what he says. But I came that you may have
-
life and have it in what abundance to the full, the
-
amplified says until it overflows.
-
So he's all about living in the overflow.
-
He's all about it, Amen and so we need to get all about it and
-
the way we're going to live in abundant supply of everything
-
and all sufficiencies is if we start believing it, Amen.
-
And then we start acting on it. Wait a minute here.
-
The Lord said I should be living in the overflow, that everything
-
should be increasing in my life and there should be an overflow
-
in my marriage. Come on, there should be an
-
overflow with things that's going on in our lives that you
-
know what? There should be grace and favor
-
that is abounding for everything that we are doing.
-
Hallelujah. Because this is how He wants us
-
to live. Now look at the next point.
-
It says this Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the
-
days of my life. And why is this important when
-
he says to make every fake grace, to make every favor
-
abound to you? Because that's what mercy right
-
brings. It is undeserved favor, favor,
-
and so that's what this means his goodness, his favor, his
-
loving kindness, his goodness and his mercy will follow me all
-
the days of my life. So if you are walking because we
-
already saw, you know the the requirements of walking and
-
being led by him. If you're being led by him and
-
you're walking in his righteousness, then you can be
-
confident. Come on, that the annoying team
-
will be there, that your abundant supply will be there,
-
and that you can have confidence that his favor is upon your
-
life, that his favor is upon your life.
-
That's his mercy, his favor, his goodness, his loving kindness.
-
It is upon your life and you can have confidence in that and that
-
it's going to follow you everywhere you go.
-
That means when you go to the grocery store, you're going to
-
have favor. They're going to, I don't know
-
why, but you know what you need to get?
-
You need to get two of these. You know, I just don't know why.
-
I just want to give them to you whatever favor or you go to get
-
a car and the car dealership, you know, I mean, I can tell you
-
a many of people that's gotten cars and favor has been there
-
upon their life because they believed for it where they
-
couldn't have got a car come on, but favor was there.
-
It followed them. It followed them.
-
Hallelujah follows all the days of my life, Psalms 13, five and
-
six, it says. But I have trusted and relied
-
and been confident in your loving kindness and your
-
faithfulness. My heart shall rejoice and
-
delight in your salvation. I will sing to the Lord because
-
listen, He has dealt bountifully right with me.
-
That's that abundance, that's that goodness, that's that
-
faithfulness, That's that favor, that's that mercy.
-
Hallelujah, that belongs to us, belongs to us, but we can be
-
confident in it when we're trusting and relying on Him.
-
Psalms 13, Five and six out of the amplified.
-
It says it this way. I have trusted and relied on and
-
been confidence in your loving kindness and your faithfulness.
-
My heart shall rejoice and delight in your salvation.
-
I will sing to the Lord because He has dealt bountifully with
-
me. Is that the same?
-
10 Sorry, I read it twice and put it on there twice.
-
OK, let's move on. Limitations.
-
Limitations. Chapter 3, verses 22 through 25
-
says it this way. It is because of the Lord's
-
loving kindness that we are not consumed, because His tender
-
compassion never fail. They are new every morning.
-
Great and beyond measure is your faithfulness.
-
The Lord is my portion and my inheritance, says my soul.
-
Therefore I've hoped in him and wait expectantly for him.
-
The Lord is good to those who wait confidently for him and to
-
those who seek Him. On the authorities of God's
-
Word. Hallelujah.
-
On the authority of God's Word. See, that's what we rest in, the
-
authority of God's Word and what He says belongs to us as our
-
portion. And that this goodness and this
-
favor and this mercy and this loving kindness is running me
-
down. It's always there, always there
-
running us down. Hallelujah.
-
And we can be confident in that. We should have confidence in
-
that. Philippians One and Six says
-
this. I am convinced and confident of
-
this very thing, that he who has begun a good work in you will
-
continue to perfect and complete it until the day of Christ,
-
until the time of His return. So we can be confident that no
-
matter what's going on, when we call on the Lord as our
-
Shepherd, come on, He's always there trying to make every
-
effort for us in every situation so that it benefits us, that it
-
benefits us. Hallelujah.
-
And whatever it is that we are needing and we can be confident
-
that until he returns, listen, he's working this thing out for
-
our behalf. He's working it out.
-
If we'll just continue to trust in Him and be confident in what
-
He is doing in our life. Hallelujah.
-
So let's go to the next and last point.
-
We're going to get done early, maybe until we get into the
-
overflow anyway. So the next point is I love this
-
because this we could talk about and get into with the overflow,
-
but here it says I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever.
-
OK, I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever.
-
This means dwell. We know what this it means to
-
sit, to remain, to abide. That's what this means to dwell.
-
It means to dwell, it means to sit, it means to remain in that
-
seat and it means to abide in. So he's letting us know, listen,
-
we are going to sit, we're going to remain, we're going to dwell,
-
we're going to abide in the House of the Lord forever.
-
We could say it this way. Two, we could say that it is His
-
habitation. It's where He makes His home.
-
And we already know that we are carriers.
-
Come on, we are carriers. He made His abode within us.
-
Praise God, so I don't have to wait till I get to heaven to be
-
able to dwell in His house. I don't have to wait till I get
-
to heaven and to the mansion. Come on to be in His presence
-
and dwell and abide with Him every day because He's made His
-
habitation within our hearts. Glory to God, so every day I get
-
to abide in Him. I get to abide in the vine.
-
I get to abide and habitate with Him.
-
Come on and spend time with Him and sit in His presence.
-
I can remain in His presence at all times.
-
Hallelujah. Glory to God.
-
And what this is talking about really is the fact that we are
-
in union with Him. We are one with Him as He is one
-
with the Father. Because the Holy Spirit lives in
-
our hearts, because we are born again.
-
We've called on the name of the Lord.
-
He came to dwell on the inside of man, not in a temple any
-
longer. Come on.
-
But He came to dwell back inside man again.
-
And so therefore, listen, we get to continually be in union with
-
him. And you know, that was Jesus's
-
prayer, that we would become so unified, we would become so one
-
with Him. And that is the only way we will
-
become one with Him. If we learn how to dwell in His
-
presence, if we learn how to sit and abide and remain in His word
-
and in His presence, being one with His will, being one with
-
His word, come on being one with Him in all realms of our life,
-
spirit, soul and body, the complete habitation in union
-
with Him in His presence at all times.
-
Hallelujah. So let's look at a couple of
-
things. Psalms 91.9 reads it this way.
-
Because you have made the Lord listen, because you have called
-
on the Lord as your shepherd. He says, because you have made
-
the Lord your refuge, the Most High, your habitation.
-
There's that word. And then Psalms 91 and one says
-
this. We know this.
-
He who dwelleth, this is that same word.
-
He who dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall
-
abide under the shadow of His wings.
-
Hallelujah. There's no hiding place like in
-
His presence. There's no hiding place like in
-
His presence, in His habitation. Come on up underneath the shadow
-
and the protection of His wing. Just sitting there up underneath
-
His authority and His power and His love and everything that He
-
is the full weight of who who he is that you get to participate
-
with and be in his presence with.
-
Praise God, we no longer have to go through the priest, glory to
-
God to be into his presence. Come on, the veil was torn, it
-
was rent. Glory to God.
-
We no longer have to send a priest in on our behalf that
-
could die having bails on his feet.
-
Glory to God, we get to come and habitat in His dwelling, all
-
times in His presence. Come on and abide with Him
-
forever. Forever.
-
What an honor, what a privilege. And how many of us are really
-
taking advantage of that? How much of us are really taking
-
advantage of us being able to get into his presence where he
-
knows everything inside and out about you because you've spent
-
time in union with him, in communion with him, dwelling in
-
His presence, spending time. We're going to see.
-
Look what it says in the secret place.
-
Of the most high the dwelling place, Psalms 90 and one says
-
this Lord, I thou has been our dwelling place in all
-
generations. See he's been there for all
-
generations for people to dwell with.
-
That's what he wanted when he created man in Genesis.
-
He wanted man to be one with him and in union with him and spend
-
time with Him and fellowship and communion.
-
He would come in the cool of the day and be in His presence.
-
That's what he wanted for man. And then we know man disobeyed
-
and the Holy Spirit had to depart.
-
The glory had to depart. The full weight of who he was
-
had to depart from man because of sin.
-
But he always wanted to be back in communion with man.
-
He always wanted to be back with man.
-
That's why he would be. He had the tents come on and it
-
would move around so the presence of God could be there.
-
Come on. That's why he wanted there to
-
build the temple, so that the presence of God could be back
-
with man. And then that's why he sent his
-
son come on as the living sacrifice, Hallelujah, so that
-
he could come and dwell back in man and be with man again and
-
commune with man again and have a relationship with him again
-
with no more separation. Glory to God, so that the glory
-
of God, the full weight of who he was, could be Hallelujah,
-
back with us. What an honor, what a privilege.
-
Hallelujah. John 14 tells us about this in
-
verse 23. It says Jesus answered, If
-
anyone really loves me, he'll keep my word and my Father will
-
love him, and he will come to him and make our dwelling place
-
with him or make his abode with him.
-
If you really love him, Hallelujah, if you keep his
-
word, then my Father will love him and will come to him and
-
make a dwelling place with him. First.
-
John 415 says this. Whoever confesses and
-
acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him
-
and he in God. We have come to known by
-
personal observation and experience, and have believed
-
with deep, consistent faith, the love which God has for us.
-
God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God,
-
and God abides continually in Him.
-
Here it is verse 17. In this union and fellowship
-
with Him, love is completed and perfected within us so that we
-
may have confidence in the day of judgment with assurance and
-
boldness. Fate to be able to face Him
-
because as He is, so are we in this world.
-
Hallelujah. Glory to God to be in union with
-
him, to be one with him, to know that he's came and made his
-
dwelling place and his habitation back in you again.
-
Glory to God. That is such a privilege and
-
such an honor that we get, that we get.
-
Come on, let's not take this for granted.
-
The fact that we can be in communion with the Lord
-
Almighty, the ruler, the creator of heaven and earth.
-
Hallelujah, glory to God. Now let's look.
-
It says in Revelations, the last two scriptures, Revelations
Revelation 3 chapter mention
-
chapter 3 and verse 20 and 21, it says this and the amplified
-
behold, I stand at the door of the church and continually
-
knock. If anyone hears my voice and
-
opens the door, I will come in and eat with him.
-
I will restore him and he with me.
-
He who overcomes the world through believing that Jesus is
-
the Son of God, I will grant to him the privilege to sit beside
-
me on my throne, as I also overcame and sat down beside my
-
Father, his throne. The fact that we get to sit at
-
the right hand of the Father, and he says, behold, what is it?
-
I stand at the door. He is.
-
I will come and eat with him. That word is Sup.
-
That word is Sup in the King James.
-
I'll come Sup with him. You know what that means?
-
I'll come and spend time with him.
-
I'll come and dwell with him. I'll come and habitate with him.
-
I'll come and abide in him. I'll come and spend time with
-
him. And what are we eating?
-
We're eating the words of life. We're eating the word of God
-
that are coming out of his mouth.
-
Glory to God, we are supping with him.
-
We are spending time in his presence.
-
Hallelujah. And the fact that we get that
-
honor and privilege, those that have called all from the Lord as
-
their shepherd, Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
-
And listen to my last Scripture says this in Revelations Chapter
Revelation 7 chapter mention
-
7 and verse 17. It says for the Lamb on the
-
throne will be there. He will always be our shepherd,
-
always be our shepherd. He never wanted us to be without
-
a shepherd. I said this before.
-
He said I'm the great, I'm the shepherd.
-
I'll lay down my life for the sheep.
-
And then we know He laid his life down.
-
And he said those who are my sheep will hear my voice.
-
But then he also said, now I'm going to give you shepherds
-
after my heart. See, it wasn't just good enough
-
that he left and left the Holy Spirit.
-
He still wanted you to have a shepherd in the earth, which is
-
a pastor. One that will feed the flock,
-
one that will tend for the flock, one that will protect the
-
flock from the wolves. Come on.
-
One that will be there and fight for the sheep.
-
Come on, He still wanted you to have a shepherd in the earth,
-
even though he even left the Holy Spirit.
-
And then not only that, he says I'm going to be the shepherd on
-
the throne to you. So you're never going to get
-
away from him being your shepherd.
-
Hallelujah, Never, never. So for the Lamb on the throne
-
will be their shepherd, and guess what he's still going to
-
do? He's going to lead them to
-
springs of life, giving water, and God will wipe away every
-
tear from their eyes. Hallelujah.
-
Glory to God, glory to God. We have a Good Shepherd that
-
wants to lead his people. Come on into places of an
-
abundance supply. He wants to come and commune and
-
be in union with you. He wants you to not have to lack
-
any good thing. He wants to lavish you with an
-
anointing. Come on.
-
He wants to feel your cuts to overflowing.
-
He wants you to be able to have a complete sufficiency in this
-
life for everything you need. No lack, No lack of peace.
-
Come on, no lack of love. If you're feeling unloved, guess
-
what? There is a full supply of His
-
love. Glory to God, He will love you.
-
He will smother you with His love.
-
Hallelujah. Because He wants you to live in
-
the overflow. He wants your cup overflowing in
-
every area of your life, every area so that you can have joy,
-
so that you can have peace, so that you can walk every day
-
knowing what do I have to worry about?
-
He is my shepherd. Glory to God, He is leading me,
-
He is guiding me, He's filling me up.
-
Come on, He's doing everything so that His mercy and His
-
goodness is following me all the days of my life.
