-
Thanks for checking out the anchor Faith, missing podcast
-
from st. Augustine, Florida.
-
Now, enjoy this message. Today, I want to talk to you
-
about Kingdom declaration, always advancing one of Pastor,
-
Earl and Marci sayings is our senior pastors is we're always
-
advancing. We watch Meet the Robinsons this
-
week, great movie, if you haven't seen it, but they have a
-
slogan that says, keep moving forward.
-
I thought for the church, our church, anchor Faith Church
-
where always advancing. Hallelujah.
-
But I want to remind you, some of you may have been with us in
-
January, some may not have because we do have new faces,
-
but Pastor oral always prays about Lord.
-
What do you have for the upcoming year?
-
Right, it'll start praying that this at the end of this year,
-
for 2024, but coming out of 2022, he and Pastor Marcy were
-
seeking God, what is the word for Interfaith church and thank
-
God for a local body Church. There's a universal word, but
-
there's also a local body word, right.
-
And so the word for anchor, Faith Church, this year was
-
raining resonance. A year of Declaration.
-
And so that's a prophetic word for us.
-
There's just a principle about confession in the word of God,
-
but for us specifically, it's a year of raining resonance and
-
it's a year of Declaration, so I want to remind you and ask you,
-
what are you saying turn with me to Matthew chapter 16, if you
Matthew 16 chapter mention
-
got your Paper Bible or your digital.
-
Hold them up. Let me see what you got.
-
Who's got digital or phones. We got some paper Bibles.
-
Reverend Randy will be so happy Revival of the paper Bible.
-
So go to Matthew chapter, 16 we're going to launch out from
-
this verse These verses into today's message.
-
Amen. About always advancing Matthew
-
chapter 16 verses 13 through 19. I'm reading from the new King
-
James version. It says, when Jesus came into
-
the region of caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples saying,
-
who do men say that? I, the son of man a.m.
-
So they said some say, John the Baptist some Elijah, some
-
others? Jeremiah or one of the prophets.
-
He said to them. But who do you say that?
-
I am Simon. Peter answered said, you are the
-
Christ, the son of the Living. God Jesus answering said it.
-
In blessed said to him. Blessed are you Simon Barr?
-
Jonah for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you.
-
But my father who is in heaven and also say, to you that you
-
are Peter and on this rock, I will build my church.
-
And the gates of Hades are the Gates of Hell shall not Prevail
-
against it. I will give you and I will give
-
you the Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven.
-
Whatever you bind on Earth will be bound in heaven and whatever
-
you loose. Loose on Earth will be loosed in
-
heaven. Everybody say the Keys of the
-
Kingdom. Say it again.
-
The Keys of the Kingdom turn to your neighbor and say I got the
-
keys, turn the one on the other side and say I got the keys.
-
Now he said, I will build my church, God's plan God's
-
purpose. And for you, that been with
-
anchor, Faith Church for any period of time.
-
You understand that salvation is just an interest into a life, a
-
lifestyle and really a kingdom lifestyle.
-
Our kingdom culture salvation is just a start of a journey.
-
And we're on a journey with the Lord in the Earth for a
-
definitive purpose. He's called us to amen.
-
But God's about building not about tearing down God's about
-
establishing not destroying God's about advancing.
-
Not moving backwards. God wants to see you grow.
-
Not decline. So he said I'm going to build my
-
church at means. I'm going to erect it.
-
I'm going to build a house. I'm going to establish, it
-
really means to promote growth. God wants you to grow turn your
-
neighbor and say grow turn. The one that I say grow up.
-
So God's desires for you to grow, this is a good question.
-
Are you better now than you were a year ago?
-
Do you know no more now are you applying more now than you were
-
a year ago? Are you better now than you were
-
ten years ago? Are you growing?
-
Because that's God's desire that you would grow?
-
He said, he said that the gates of hell, you know, my wife
-
ministered on Wednesday and she talked about access points or
-
Three points or open doors is what she really said talking
-
about healing, you know, but he said the gates of hell, you
-
know, the devil's that work gate means there's access points or
-
entryways and he's saying those Gates will not those access
-
points those entryways. If you're doing the word will
-
not Prevail against you. The word Prevail means to be
-
strong to be superior in strength or to overcome.
-
So even the Psalms we just read our real, Psalms written by real
-
people. Psalms 139. 118.
-
And you notice in the Psalms it talks about Affliction, it talks
-
about Trials of talks about test.
-
But always come back to this resolved.
-
You are my salvation O Lord. You are the deliverer.
-
No matter what went on guess, what?
-
You always brought me out. So it is reality.
-
That guess what, there is a devil in the world that's trying
-
to destroy us, right? Trying to kill us, right?
-
Trying to take from us, but guess what?
-
God said, if you stick to the Keys of the Kingdom, you'll
-
always come out on top. He said, you'll Prevail that
-
won't Prevail against you. You'll Prevail against that and
-
he said, I will give you the keys now keys in the Kingdom.
-
Luke 11:52 talks about the key of knowledge.
-
Hosea, chapter 4. Verse number 4 says, my people
Hosea 4 chapter mention
-
perish because of a lack of knowledge.
-
So Keys represents knowledge. People perish, because they
-
don't know. And this isn't information, this
-
isn't Jeopardy. Where we know bunch of trivia
-
really a lot of what we see on the internet or get through
-
sermons is just information knowledge in the Bible.
-
When you knew somebody for those that were married in the Bible
-
the word knowing condensate an intimate close relationship,
-
Hallelujah. It's it's one thing to
-
Hallelujah. Kind of know where I'm going.
-
I'm like checking my audience, it's one thing to read a book
-
about reproduction. I'll put it that way.
-
How to reproduce? Are you with me?
-
Keeping this PG? It's another thing, just my wife
-
said, just say it. It's one thing to read a book
-
about sex. It's another thing to do the
-
action. So, do you have information
-
about it? Where are you experiencing?
-
So knowledge means, I'm intimate with it.
-
I'm actually applying what I've learned.
-
So the key of knowledge, it's just not getting information
-
about God, it's actually applying the truth of the word
-
of God. See, God didn't call you to be
-
broke down, busting disgusted, barely getting along.
-
So I'm at this is a mid-year evaluation.
-
You realize his June, the 11th. And anybody said goals and
-
January should look back. At the goals. and say, am I
-
accomplishing what I set out to do, how do you make goals and
-
then in January, and looked at him and December, Repeat next
-
year. I'm saying this because Pastor
-
Earle gave us a word, he gave us knowledge prophetically that
-
said this is a year of raining, resonance a year of Declaration.
-
This is a key for us to overcome and to be stronger than the
-
enemy. If you're not experiencing
-
Victory, then what are you declaring?
-
Let me go over some definitions, okay, because I want to touch on
-
this from several different angles.
-
So we talked about declaration, these can be broken down and
-
definitions from different words.
-
One confession, there's a key in the kingdom of God called.
-
And at these are all really the same meaning.
-
I could say declaration, I could say confession, I could say
-
profession. All right?
-
Confession isn't an acknowledgement or a
-
declaration. Profession is an open
-
Declaration of public, acknowledgement of one's
-
beliefs. Alright, Pastor gave it to this
-
way prophetically year of raining.
-
Resonance, resonance is a resounding.
-
It's a sound. It's a sound.
-
And it resounds its return from the sides of hollow instruments
-
of Music. It reverberates what's
-
reverberating in your home this year?
-
We're stuck in the same cycle. We're going through the same
-
patterns. Is that your confession?
-
Is that your declaration? Our finances are a mess.
-
I'm depressed I'm down. You know what I like about
-
Psalms 113 3118 and just the Bible in general.
-
It deals with the emotions and the trials of humanity but you
-
notice it does stay in that sums 113 through 118 is notes of
-
victory. And even though they were
-
definitely going through some things.
-
Guess what? Their praise brought them out.
-
So residents, when it comes to music, it's instruments that
-
possess a high degree of resonance by producing
-
additional vibrations and Echoes of the original sound.
-
What's the original sand in our kingdom, the Throne of God.
-
Matter of fact, when you study out the word confession, it
-
means to say the same thing. What am I saying?
-
The same thing as the original sound, which is God's, and what
-
is God saying, and the Temptation when the devil came
-
to Jesus, in Matthew chapter 4 and he tried to tempt him, three
Matthew 4 chapter mention
-
different times. God said it is written, he was
-
repeating the original sound of the father. and even though he
-
was being tried and tested, he overcame because of what he
-
said, Hallelujah. So this is a key that you need
-
to check and evaluate your life. If there's any area of lack, any
-
area of not progressing, any of area of depression, any area of
-
bondage. In my declaring him, I decree in
-
the word of the Lord, Now, turn with me to Matthew chapter 6.
Matthew 6 chapter mention
-
And we're going to look at the Lord's Prayer.
-
And this is some verse number. 9 through verse number 13, And it
-
says this, Our Father in heaven Hallowed Be Your Name, Your
-
Kingdom Come your will be done on the Earth as it is in heaven.
-
Give us this day, our daily bread and forgive us.
-
All of our debts, as we forgive our debtors and do not lead us
-
into temptation, but Deliver Us from the evil.
-
One for yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever.
-
Amen. Now, this is red letter in my
-
Which means Jesus spoke. This is actually part of The
-
Sermon on the Mount. From Matthew Chapter 5 through
Matthew 5 chapter mention
-
Matthew chapter 7. But with embedded within this
Matthew 7 chapter mention
-
because they were asking him how do we pray?
-
The disciples are asking Jesus, how do we pray?
-
And he said I'm going to give you this prayer and its really a
-
prayer pattern because God said don't be vain or repetitious in
-
your prayers. I don't think God gave us this
-
prayer just to repeat it but really to extract principles.
-
Matter of fact their rabbis when they taught Always speak a
-
principle than expound on the principal.
-
So there's a clause contained in each of these verses that I
-
wanted to cover just a couple of these.
-
During this time, our Father in heaven Hallowed be your name,
-
that's one clause. The second one, your kingdom
-
come your will be done on Earth as it is in heaven.
-
Third Clause, give us this day, our daily bread, fourth Clause,
-
forgive us our debts. As we forgive our debtors, fifth
-
Clause, don't delete us into temptation, but Deliver Us from
-
Evil fifth place for yours is the kingdom and the power and
-
the glory forever. I believe every good prayer,
-
Life Starts With Praise and ends with praise He starts with our
-
Father in heaven Hallowed be your name and he ends with for
-
yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, both now and
-
forever, the word hallowed, he said Our Father, which art in
-
heaven Hallowed, Be Your Name, hallowed means to be entire and
-
perfect. Pure in heart temper and
-
disposition. Hallowed means you're free from
-
sin or sinful affections. It's applied hallo to the
-
Supreme Being In it really pronounces God's name.
-
Holy God's name is Holy. It means let God's name be
-
celebrated venerated and esteemed as holy everywhere.
-
That means I give the name of God, the highest degree of
-
respect and reverence, it's a cinnamon excited by the dignity
-
and the superiority of God, Almighty, the sacredness of his
-
character, you know, in the Jewish culture, when they wrote
-
the name of God, they had such Veneration and reverence for
-
that name, they literally would break the PIN.
-
Because they were saying that name is so sacred, I can't use
-
his pen to do anything else. So Hallowed, Be Your Name,
-
Hallowed, be your name. I'm going to give you some
-
ammunition today. Glory to God, this is the year
-
of Declaration. The Earth raining resonances.
-
Should be a reverberation that's going on in your house and your
-
car as you're in your job. What do you speak in?
-
What do you declaring? What do you sing?
-
And cause confessions not limited as talking.
-
That declaration. There's a praise in declaration.
-
Sometimes there's a silence where you just lift in your
-
hands. That's a Liberation.
-
Listen people that are in bondage, their hands are chained
-
up, people that are freaking lift their hands.
-
Psalms 46:10 says be still and know that your God.
-
There's a declaration and saying Lord Almighty you've got this So
-
here's some ammunition from you or for you for your life.
-
Amen. Some takeaways, they're going to
-
put these up on the screen. I'm going to cover him pretty
-
quick but the old Covenant, you've heard their team term
-
Jehovah. We sang.
-
The song today that I am tells me who I am first time.
-
This is mentioned in scripture is in Exodus 3:14.
-
When Moses said, who should I say?
-
Sit me when he's gone before Pharaoh God, on my He said, tell
-
them that I am since you and this identified him as Jehovah,
-
Jehovah. Jehovah's, the personal name of
-
God in his relationship as Redeemer.
-
Redeem means, this d means to buy back.
-
That means you were under different management or
-
ownership until you said Jesus. I believe in the sacrifice that
-
you paid on that cross. Right.
-
I believe that you came this Earth, You Walked it for 33
-
years, you were crucified died and buried, but on the third
-
day, you Rose again in fulfillment of scripture and now
-
you have ascended in your seat. At the right hand of the father,
-
your blood is on The Mercy Seat and I say that Jesus is Lord of
-
my life. That's Redemption.
-
I was under the sway, the Tactics the plan and the
-
ownership of the devil. But when I say Jesus, your Lord,
-
I'm taking out of darkness and I'm brought into The Marvelous
-
Light and so Jehovah. Identifies, God's name in his
-
personal relationship as Redeemer.
-
Jehovah means the Eternal one since Jehovah is the Covenant
-
name of God. So, if we could just talk about
-
Covenant, Josh, clay would just unload that like a machine gun
-
on you. Praise the Lord.
-
He and for those chaos students were not doing it, but he went
-
to do a sacrifice in ki class Blood Covenant, Hallelujah good.
-
Things are happening. Acre-feet church.
-
If you're interested in ki, you can go down to the table after
-
church and snow another infomercial.
-
So it's the Covenant, it's a covenant, Covenant!
-
Covenant Covenant is binding, Covenant is solid, Covenant is
-
lasting, it's expresses his personal relationship.
-
So it's natural that this name. Jehovah will be compounded with
-
other terms that identify and make specific those
-
relationships Jehovah's. The name of God occur most
-
frequently in the Old Testament. 1231 times, Jehovah is
-
mentioned. Now, you'll see the first one, I
-
cover Jehovah. The, I am to show the personal
-
nature nature of the relationship that he has with
-
us. We can call him Jehovah, Allah
-
aim, Lolly means, he's the creator of all things.
-
You know, by right of creation. He owns in the United States if
-
we make a patent that means you created something.
-
And now you have the right to what you created sin is really a
-
denial of God, God's right of possession. he created us
-
therefore, where his Jehovah Jireh, and they give you the
-
scripture next to these, you can write down and look these up.
-
When you go home, identifies God as the provider, obviously, this
-
is about Abraham. When he saw the ram caught in
-
the thicket and God provided the sacrifice.
-
He's also Jehovah Rapha, which my wife is ministering on
-
Wednesdays, right now, this identifies God, as the Healer
-
God has, provided the final cure for Virtual physical and
-
emotional healing. God has provided the final cure,
-
The Mending, the repairing, the wholeness for Spiritual physical
-
and emotional healing. You don't have to be mentally
-
Disturbed. Physically bound or spiritually
-
oppressed. God is Jehovah Rapha.
-
How does this apply to you? Because I get to get my car
-
today. I get to go to my house and
-
start making a sound and let it reverberating.
-
I'm just not gonna run to the throne and just say, God, I need
-
this, this and this God, I'm when I lift my hands and say,
-
thank you that you are the Healer.
-
I'm just going to spend 10 15 minutes just thanking you for
-
bringing me out. We just sang the song.
-
How you saved me? How you raised me, how you
-
filled me with the Holy Ghost. Right.
-
I'm going to thank you. Music crater.
-
I could just walk out nature and say wow.
-
Those pictures from my homeland. Poland, I'm polish and German.
-
So cool thing as shot, Pastor a text which micro said k, r UL C.
-
Ik is not how we spell really spell it.
-
So my dad has his grandfather's actual original birth
-
certificate and I sent the the spelling to Pastor I said, hey,
-
can you confirm because this is what my dad told me, it means he
-
said that's right arm because yes, the spears but it means son
-
of a king. But you saw those videos, Man,
-
beautiful lush green grass, right Rivers got, you could just
-
experienced God and nature, right?
-
You could thank him that he's the provider.
-
Jehovah. Shalom means this identifies God
-
as peace. Why are you fretting?
-
Why are you worried? Why are you anxious?
-
Maybe, because you watched and feed on too much of the wrong
-
thing. Too much negative news.
-
Right. You know, all of that, a
-
meditation life. What are you thinking?
-
On? And God said, I am peace.
-
It means more than freedom from conflict.
-
Shalom means Prosperity. It means health and well-being,
-
and faith. In the face of any conflict.
-
It doesn't mean the absence of conflict and means faith in the
-
midst of any conflict. Jesus did not have a freakout
-
party. When he now, the disciples did,
-
when on the boat and they said the win, the waves, Jesus had a
-
word from the Lord. We got a word from the Lord this
-
year. It's raining resonance.
-
Jesus had a word from the Lord for the disciples.
-
You're going to make it to the other side.
-
Guess what? Just like we do sometimes they
-
forgot that word that's why I'm reminding.
-
You of the word today. What is your confession?
-
What is your declaration that you are speaking?
-
Not a disciples are freaking out but Jesus he knew.
-
God Almighty is Jehovah Shalom. And he said, winds be still wave
-
cease and peace manifested. He's Jehovah tisca new this
-
identifies God as our righteousness.
-
Man, the blood of God has been applied to my life.
-
He's also Jehova, rohi this identified God as our Shepherd.
-
The Lord Is Our Shepherd. We shall not want or lack,
-
right? What does the shepherd do a
-
Shepherd? Feeds, a Shepherd God's.
-
He's given us the Holy Ghost. You can thank God today.
-
As you're walking out the booty. Can think of right now that you
-
have poured out the Holy Ghost and I don't have to guess.
-
I don't have to wonder as many as are led by the spirit of God.
-
These are the sons of God. Thank you for the quickening.
-
The leading, the direction, the Council of the Holy Ghost, I
-
like taking towards downtown one cuz I don't have to walk
-
everywhere. You can get dropped off at
-
certain spots but they have a tour conductor a guide that on
-
the trolley that takes you around right?
-
And he gives you a lot of factual information about the
-
history of Saint Augustine. Well the Holy Ghost is just like
-
that tour guide. He's going to be communicating
-
with you. If you're listening to him, he
-
doesn't communicate to your mind.
-
He communicates to your spirit, he gives witness to your Spirit.
-
But the Lord is Our Shepherd. He's also Jehovah me.
-
Kiddush this identifies. God is the one who sanctifies
-
and consecrates. It's time to put down the
-
Twinkies. The stay comes.
-
Orange Tang. Glory to God.
-
Amen. That's tell him.
-
I my girls. My grandma used to cook bacon.
-
Then take the grease from the bacon to cook the eggs.
-
With, that's ministering to some here right now.
-
I hear the arteries clogging up. He's a God who sanctifies.
-
That means he's going to shave some things off of you that may
-
be good every once in a while, but every day I'll kill you.
-
What sanctification, we think about Olympic athletes.
-
What do they do? They've consecrated themselves
-
to a discipline or regimen. I just don't watch everything or
-
listen, everything or let everything in, there's access
-
points, there's Gates. You want to be defiled?
-
Diluted? Delusional.
-
You're living an unsanctified life.
-
This it God, doesn't make that choice for you.
-
Listen. Your life is composed of your
-
choices. Constructed by your words and
-
revealed by your character. Your life is composed of your
-
choices. You got to choose to sanctify
-
constructed. By your words, what do you
-
declaring this year? And it's revealed by your
-
character. Sanctification means I'll put
-
things down, Paul talks in first, but in First Corinthians
-
9 about the athletic games during those days how they
-
buffeted their body, not Buffet. Some of you may be having
-
misread that verse it wasn't gonna go and Crown and look in
-
the chocolate fondue dripping down, right?
-
It's sanctification being set apart.
-
I get up at 5:00 a.m. for a reason.
-
Why the, why the Olympic athletes get up early.
-
They're trying to win a gold. He said your they're doing it
-
for a perishable Crown. We should be doing it for an
-
imperishable crown. We were created in God.
-
To do, good works to bring glory to God.
-
What is your resume your writing for the Lord look like right
-
now? When you know, going to Walmart,
-
the Bible says, you should be light and you should be salt,
-
you should display good works. That your father in Heaven may
-
be glorified but that takes sanctification and consecration.
-
He's also Jehovah Sabbath, which identifies God is the Lord of
-
hosts. The king of glory, the lord of
-
hosts surrounds. His people.
-
In times of attack by the enemy. He's also Jehova shamma this
-
identifies. That God is there.
-
Sometimes we think God is way up where he can't be reached.
-
He can't be touched, he can't be accessed but Jehova shamma said,
-
God is the Transcendent God who created the vast universe.
-
But he's also a pretty very present help.
-
He's a very present help in any time of trouble, he will never
-
leave you nor forsake you This is ways that you can praise and
-
declare and confess, God Almighty these.
-
A spiritual ammo that you can leash on the Gates of Hell.
-
These Are Spiritual ammo that you could declare in your house.
-
Your car around your family, in this church in this community,
-
in this city and the nation in the world.
-
Don't be silent as time to open up your mouth and to clear the
-
goodness of God, Luke chapter 17 verses 20 through 21.
-
Now, the first part of Luke Chapter, Matthew chapter 6, he
Matthew 6 chapter mention
-
said Our Father, which art in heaven, Hallowed be your name,
-
then he said your kingdom come, your will be done.
-
One translation, says in the earth, another one says, on the
-
earth, you know, stretch second Corinthians chapter 5 says, we
2 Corinthians 5 chapter mention
-
have this treasure in Earthen vessels.
-
I like both translation, be it done on the Earth, but let it be
-
done in the earth in this vessel.
-
Let your kingdom come. Word in the Greek Kingdom means
-
boss Alia. It's a realm or domain or
-
territory. Where King is in charge.
-
When you get when you are born again, it's just not about going
-
to. The kingdom of heaven, we are
-
advancing the kingdom of God. We're always advancing the
-
kingdom of God. In the earth kingdom of God, is
-
not limited to the kingdom of heaven.
-
The kingdom of God, is in operation.
-
Now, God feels is the supreme ruler.
-
When you say, I'm in the Kingdom, the territory, I'm
-
putting this way. God is not killing you to get
-
you into his kingdom. Once you're born again, you're
-
already in his kingdom. The question is, are you
-
operating as a son and a citizen in the kingdom of God?
-
And that takes the keys of knowledge.
-
He said, I'll give you the keys of the kingdom of basa Leah.
-
The key of knowledge see were low.
-
We're living on a lower level than God intended us for us to
-
live on. How do I know this?
-
Because of the parable of the sower.
-
The seed is sown it, us four things.
-
The great thing about the seed is keep sewing it, and let it
-
let yourself be good ground. Fruit.
-
Glorifies God. And he wants his kingdom kids to
-
bring honor to his name. Psalms 115 was 115 and said not
-
unto us O Lord but unto you be the glory.
-
So the kingdom of God, Luke chapter 17.
Luke 17 chapter mention
-
I just want to identify their, there is a difference between
-
the Kingdom of Heaven and the kingdom of Fiore sir God,
-
because the kingdom of God is now turn to your neighbor and
-
say the kingdom of God, is now say it louder.
-
Say the kingdom of God, is now say it again.
-
The kingdom of God is now look at Luke chapter 17 verses 20
-
through 21. It says, now when He was asked
-
by the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God would come Jesus
-
answered them. And said, the kingdom of God
-
knows he didn't say the kingdom of heaven.
-
Does not come with observation or just with your natural eyes
-
nor will they say see hear or see there for indeed the kingdom
-
of God is where it's within you. You need to start.
-
This is a confession, the kingdom of God is alive in me.
-
You could say this way, I'm alive and the kingdom, I got
-
Zoey a life on the inside of me. I got Agape.
-
Love on the inside of me. Romans 14:17.
-
Romans 14:17, this says, for the kingdom of God is not eating and
-
drinking but its righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy
-
Spirit. That is the kingdom of God.
-
Now, I want to flip back to the Old Testament.
-
Exodus chapter 12. Exodus is a fascinating book.
Exodus 12 chapter mention
-
Hallelujah. Leviticus is a fascinating book.
-
The Bible is a fascinating book, lord open up our eyes that we
-
would see. Holy Spirit.
-
Give us understanding and illumination and renew our mind
-
today in the name of Jesus. Hallelujah, you know the
-
children of Israel. They were like grasshoppers in
-
their own sight. They saw them self less than
-
what God saw them. And I'm telling you today by the
-
spirit of God, you need to renew your mind and see yourself as
-
God sees you. We sung the song.
-
The I am tells me who I am. Do you believe that?
-
Are you just singing it? Are you worshipping with your
-
lips? But your heart is far from him.
-
This is evaluation time. We're halfway through the year
-
and God saying, it's time to keep moving forward.
-
Always advancing, right? It's a rain training means to
-
rule, raining means to exercise the highest influence.
-
That means when you go into any situation or scenario
-
circumstance, that doesn't dictate you, you dictate that
-
too. Many times.
-
Believers are being dictated by what's going on.
-
Instead of dictating what's going on and God called you to
-
rule. He's a king.
-
He has Dominion. He's giving his kids ruler
-
Dominion to, he wants you to exercise that rulership on the
-
Earth but it takes knowledge. It takes application of
-
knowledge to rule and to many of us just have not even renewed
-
our mind and God say Hey man, just renewed with a washing of
-
the water of the word. How can you even talk different
-
if you're not thinking different?
-
How can you talk different? If you're not changing the word,
-
repent means to change your thinking.
-
The first word was repent for the kingdom.
-
You've been living life in a certain way or certain vein or
-
certain flow, but now you need to learn how to think like the
-
son of a king. Royalty.
-
How does the son of a king? Think, that's how does the
-
daughter of a king think? Tom to destroy grasshopper
-
mentality. And it's time to get some
-
raining mentality. Hallelujah.
-
So we see just for progression, God is a God who is always
-
advancing in the Bible is progressive revelation.
-
We see in Genesis chapter 12, a man come on the scene named
Genesis 12 chapter mention
-
Abraham right. Genesis 1 through 11 covers
-
about 2,000 years of History. Sets creation says the fall sets
-
the plan of God for Redemption. Genesis 12 through Genesis 50
-
slows down covers the lives of four men over about 250 Years.
-
First one that comes on the scene as Me becomes the father
-
of many nations. God's plan was not to develop a
-
religion or Christianity. God said, I got a nation of
-
people in the Earth. I'm creating our birthing a
-
nation out of Abraham came Isaac.
-
And what does Isaac represent to us?
-
He becomes the son of submission.
-
And unless you get John 3:30 down which means he must
-
increase in. I must decrease Proverbs talks
-
about he that tries to Humble himself will what be exalted and
-
he that exalts himself or what be humbled.
-
So the sun is submission says man I submit to God I'm not
-
figuring out my own way, my own plan, my own thoughts, I'm
-
coming up under him, I'm not independent.
-
Right. I am under his control under his
-
leadership under his lordship. That means I access a throne of
-
God frequently. And then out of Isaac, right?
-
We get the 12 Patriarchs but really they focus on Jacob,
-
right? Jacob becomes a son, a
-
transformation actually. Jacob has a twelve Patriarchs
-
Jacob becomes the son of transformation and that's where
-
true. True transforms us not sermons
-
sermons, don't set you free, true set, you free.
-
John 8:31 32 says, you shall know the truth member not
-
information, but you shall know you should be intimate with
-
truth and the truth is going to liberate.
-
You this is your of raining resonance, this is your of
-
Declaration, the truth is if you'll just speak it by faith.
-
I like what Pastor Marcus said, it's not a feeling Faith.
-
Isn't a feeling faith will impact your feelings.
-
But by faith. What is faith?
-
Faith is a conviction based upon the word of God and I declare
-
the word of God in the middle of any circumstance, whether I'm on
-
the Mountaintop or in the valley, I'm gonna speak.
-
His word confession means to say the same thing that God says,
-
As. So, we need to be saying the
-
same thing. That God says so Jacob the son
-
of transformation Joseph represents suffering and Glory
-
he had a dream. Does anybody have a dream?
-
Don't lose your dream. God gives dreams.
-
God gives Vision. Listen, God says, I got to work
-
for you to do in the earth. I got a plan for you to
-
accomplish in the earth. I got a purpose for you, and I'm
-
going to birth that. I'm gonna.
-
I want you to, you know, put it in a Crock-Pot.
-
Put all the ingredients in it. There's, there's a
-
knowledge-based. We need people, perish.
-
This is another key in the Kingdom.
-
People perish because of a lack of vision. don't be this, I
-
wanted a title, this break the hamster, wheel, get off the
-
Merry-Go-Round and go somewhere that your of Israel, Circle the
-
same Mountain God saying this is time June 11th break through
-
Break Free Break through Break Free.
-
Break the hemp was a hamster wheel.
-
You are making a lot of effort going around the same things but
-
not going anywhere. I don't want to look back 30
-
years from now and say, man. There was no movement, even
-
though it was moving, there was no movement.
-
God is a God who moves. He takes you from Faith to Faith
-
from glory to glory and Joseph had a dream and guess what?
-
Not, everybody's going to love. Your dream will love it.
-
Out of the 12 Brothers, only one really interceded for him, the
-
rest said, let's kill him. There's dreams squashers out
-
there. There's dream Killers out there.
-
You don't want to die with what God has put in your heart.
-
He said, I need to one, I gave five to one, I gave to 21, I
-
gave one and they went out reproduce that dream and brought
-
fruits fruit and brought glory to God, because of the plan and
-
the purpose that he had for him. So that Moses represents the
-
deliver. And then we get to Joshua who
-
brings us into Canaan land. But I want to highlight today,
-
Exodus Exodus. Exodus 40 chapters.
-
Amen. First, we have the call of God.
-
You know, sometimes you struggle with your call.
-
Moses struggled. He said little Lord don't talk
-
well. I got a speech.
-
Impediment. He said, he had a, he had a car,
-
you know, you could talk to God like that.
-
He basically was Questioning God, we don't want to question
-
God but he was saying, you sure you got the right guy, the right
-
girl. Right.
-
But God said no I who made man. Do you think I missed it?
-
That's what he basically said to Moses.
-
He said no, you are the man that I've called you are the woman
-
that I've called. Your anointed for such a time as
-
this. Be bold be confident, be
-
courageous stand up in faith. Have a backbone, spiritual
-
backbone. And tell the devil sit down,
-
roll over and play dead. Right.
-
So we in Exodus 12, basically, for we see the call of Moses.
-
Exodus seven through twelve, thirty six, we see the Moses
-
with a word with a word, with a prophetic word from God.
-
Let my people go did Pharaoh say cool, Right on.
-
No, he rejected the word. So God sent ten plagues, right?
-
But to God, still do what he said he would do and bring them
-
out. so we get to Exodus chapter 12, which is the story really
Exodus 12 chapter mention
-
the first Passover that's instituted And the journey out
-
of Egypt. Egypt is a type of the world and
-
Pharaoh is a type of the devil. And God said I'm bringing you
-
out of Egypt not into the Wilderness.
-
My goal is to bring you into where Canaan land.
-
Don't die Church in the wilderness.
-
A lot of the children of Israel died, wandering in the
-
wilderness. The Wilderness is where hamster
-
wheels are built and merry-go-rounds happen.
-
The Wilderness is a dry place, you're out, but you have barely
-
enough to get by, Finances, emotional well-being, physical
-
health and God said, I he said in John 10:10.
-
I came I came I came to give you life and to give it to you more
-
abundantly, the reason you'll have more is because you settle
-
for less second Corinthians chapter 4, I'm going to come
2 Corinthians 4 chapter mention
-
back to Exodus 12 and just a second there's a reason why I
-
started this service with the help of the Holy Ghost reading
-
those psalms second Corinthians chapter 4, verse number 13.
2 Corinthians 4 chapter mention
-
I'm going to read this from a few different translations.
-
I think they have the new King James version, or maybe the King
-
James version will start with that.
-
We have in the same Spirit of Faith.
-
According as it is written, I believe and therefore I have
-
spoken. We Believe therefore we speak.
-
Now, the living Bible says it like this.
-
We boldly say that we believe trusting God to care for us,
-
just as as the psalm Ryder did, when he said, I believe and
-
therefore I speak. So this verse in second
-
Corinthians is really a reference from the psalm.
-
Second Corinthians chapter 4. Verse number 13 says, we're not
2 Corinthians 4 chapter mention
-
keeping this quiet not on your life.
-
Just like the psalmist you wrote I believe.
-
So I said it, we say it. We believe it.
-
Listen, my wife and I were trying to have to get pregnant.
-
Got pregnant had a miscarriage. And Tulsa got pregnant.
-
Florida had a miscarriage. And I remember my wife, I was
-
working for Enterprise Rent-A-Car.
-
I was working for Enterprise Rent-A-Car.
-
I said looking at Pastor Marcus and I remember my wife came and
-
another miscarriage was sitting in the car with her.
-
She was slamming, her hand on the steering wheel.
-
Say God you said God, you said You said they're the womb will
-
be fruitful, right? We call Pastor or Marcy because
-
you want people around you that are going to give you the word,
-
not just sympathize and try to empathize.
-
Oh, it's gonna be okay. You'll get through this.
-
No, I want. Someone is going to say you're
-
gonna come out of this and you're going to have what God
-
said because he said that your womb will not be buried.
-
And that's the word and then prophetically pasture, land,
-
August 2008. Gave us a word you'll be with
-
child this time. Next year, I'm glad I didn't
-
miss that Sunday morning service and guess what we are with that.
-
Child next year, Abigail was born.
-
And then he gave us another prophetic word.
-
This one was dangerous. You can have children any time
-
you want now. Praise the Lord. that could be
-
good, but it also needs to be planned plan glory to God, or
-
will have a tribe Listen you can't break natural laws.
-
I'm going to insert this parenthetically I heard a one
-
couple of said we're trusting God we don't get pregnant.
-
We're declaring. Now that's just ignorance gone
-
to see. They got pregnant.
-
You can't Over Law override the law of seedtime.
-
And harvest. Say Amen.
-
Or oh me. You got to have the key of
-
knowledge. I heard of one Minister who
-
unfortunately passed away, but was declaring on one of his
-
Transportation modes. That nothing would happen.
-
But there was something in their Spirit, they got about, they
-
shouldn't go they should get it fixed.
-
Well guess what? They went on the certain
-
Transportation, it broke down him cost in their life just
-
being real vague right now. But you can't override
-
principles in the word of God. I can't run down the road at a
-
hundred miles an hour day. Say Psalms 91, the Lord is my
-
protection. And close my eyes and then
-
getting a traumatic crash and say God where were, you know,
-
that's tempting God. Jesus said You shall not tempt.
-
Jesus is the devil said, throw yourself down off of this,
-
basically is trying to Forfeit Jesus purpose to get him to
-
commit. Suicide and suicide is not the
-
answer. Life is the answer in God and
-
purpose and vision to the destiny.
-
It is called you too. And Jesus had to rebuke that
-
thought you realize that the devil is not with a red
-
Pitchfork in front of Jesus. Most likely because the Bible
-
says, he was tempted as we are yet without sin, these Just
-
thought the devil was coming unless Jesus at that moment was
-
operating in the Discerning of spirits.
-
To see into the spirit realm. The devil was throwing thoughts
-
at his mind. And guess what he was doing?
-
Same thing we got to do cast down, any thoughts or
-
imagination? A lot of time we just picture
-
Jesus having this conversation with the devil.
-
Know how does it at a devil? Come he gives you flaming arrows
-
or firing missiles right and we are to quench those with the
-
shield of Faith. The same way that Jesus, that's
-
a key of the kingdom. Are you quenching thoughts that
-
come your way? Hallelujah.
-
So we got to say it. We had to say it. and pastor of
-
Marcy encourages, thank God for those that are going to speak
-
truth to you and say, you can come up out if if you do this
-
So, second Corinthians 4:13, we're not keeping this quiet,
-
not on your life, just like the psalmist wrote I believe.
-
So I said it, we say it and we believe it.
-
So Exodus 12 starts the Passover, which means God's
-
bringing them out. He says, this is the first month
-
for you. This is a marker.
-
This is a memory. This is momentous and this is
-
the Passover the month of April, and you're going to celebrate
-
this for eternity. Right?
-
Is basically what he said we're going to honor.
-
God, we Still honor God because Jesus is the Passover Lamb.
-
We can celebrate that every day. That could be a reigning
-
resonance in our life that Jesus is Jehovah, tisca new
-
righteousness and he has brought us out of Egypt.
-
He's bringing us through the Wilderness, but to bring us into
-
Canaan land. Canaan, land is a land.
-
That's more than enough. That's God's plan for you, where
-
your, the dreams are coming to pass where the provision is
-
coming in, where the marriage is fruitful, where the parenting is
-
thriving with a business is growing where your influence is
-
just going all over the world. So saw 2nd Corinthians, Chapter
-
4 verses 13, the references back to Psalms.
-
The celebrants of the Passover today, either read or sing.
-
You get that they either read or what say I could read or I could
-
sing. But either way, I'm saying
-
something. Let's say it again.
-
I could read or I could sing. But either way I'm saying
-
something. They would read or sing Psalms
-
113 through 118 as part of the liturgical, retelling of the
-
story of God's Deliverance of Israel from Egypt, as part of
-
the Kim commemoration of God's saving acts during The Exodus.
-
These Psalms lead the celebrants through a cycle of praise to
-
God, their savior. Before the Passover feast, the
-
celebrating Jews read or sang. Psalms 113 in, Psalms 114 both
-
Psalms remarkably capture. And poetry, the major ideas of
-
the Liturgy that is also recited before the Passover meal.
-
This is they speak of God's saving works during the time of
-
Exodus. The first Psalm 113 focuses on
-
the worshippers and the grace of God.
-
He is there. Merciful Redeemer who bends from
-
Heaven to meet the needs of his people.
-
Then with the singing of Psalms, 114 the Jews, recall Israel's
-
deliverance from Egypt, the reason for the Passover
-
celebration and the central Act of God's Saving Grace the song
-
begins on, I'd light happy note, but then Psalms 114 really ends
-
on an arresting somber, note, the Earth trembling before the
-
almighty Lord, it is a wonderful companion piece to the song of
-
Miriam and Aaron and Exodus chapter 15 after the Passover
Exodus 15 chapter mention
-
meal, Psalms 1, 15 through 18, 18 and 136 are red or some So
-
after the Passover meal, Psalms 1, 15 through 18, 18 and 136 are
-
either red or sung, Psalms 115. As a similar responsive reading,
-
which includes the communities expressive trust in the Lord and
-
the priests blessing. After declaring their confidence
-
in God, the celebrants, praise God, for saving them with the
-
words of Psalms 116. Then there's only two verses in
-
Psalms 117, but they build on Psalms 116 exhorting all the
-
nations to praise the Lord for his love and faithfulness.
-
Psalms 118 continues the emphasis on God's faithfulness.
-
By celebrating the Lord's, enduring love and a responsive
-
song. Responsive.
-
Oh the Lord is good and his Mercy if you can't say anything
-
else. Say, oh the Lord is good.
-
That word owes its like from them the From.
-
Oh the Lord is good and his Mercy endures forever.
-
Hallelujah. The heart of the sun
-
prophetically describes God's Deliverance.
-
For the children of Israel, Psalms 136 concludes the
-
Passover. Supper with her, resuscitate
-
order, reciting of this history of the Lord saving works.
-
It continues the previous Psalms refrain for his Mercy, endures
-
forever. Why do I bring all that?
-
Because in Psalms 116, 10 Paul quotes that and second
-
Corinthians 4:13 Paul's referencing God's delivering
-
ham. Let's let's read.
-
Second Corinthians, chapter 4, glory to God.
2 Corinthians 4 chapter mention
-
Pastor Marcus said I had 74 scriptures today.
-
I told him I was tempted. Bring a Bible reading plan and
-
pass one out. So you can start checking off
-
boxes in the congregation. There's nothing better.
-
Then the word of God there's nothing better.
-
I can say than to give you the word of God so let's read all
-
Second Corinthians, chapter 4. It's only 16 verses but you know
2 Corinthians 4 chapter mention
-
and hermeneutics are Bible interpretation.
-
We got to set context, right? Let's see what Paul was going
-
through. First Corinthians, second
-
Corinthians. Okay?
-
Start at verse number 1. Therefore, since we have this
-
ministry as we have received Mercy, we do not lose heart.
-
Hallelujah. One translation says, don't
-
faint faint means that your spiritless.
-
You're wearing, you know, you can get, where is a believer?
-
It's reality, but Galatians, 6, as what don't grow, God said
-
he's going to build. I'm going to grow you or
-
establish you. He and he listened by the holy
-
ghost that don't grow the other way.
-
Wary because wearing, this is going to come, you're not
-
abnormal because you get weary but learn how to throw it off.
-
This is the year of rain and residents.
-
Are you speaking? Are you singing?
-
We have renounced the hidden things of Shame.
-
Not walking in craftiness, nor handling word of God
-
deceitfully. But by manifestation of the
-
truth, commending ourselves to Every Man's conscience in the
-
sight of God, but even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled
-
to those who are perishing, whose Minds the God of this age
-
has blinded, you do not believe less the light of the Gospel of
-
the glory of Christ, whose image of God should shine on them.
-
For, we do not preach ourselves, but Christ, Jesus the Lord and
-
ourselves your bond servants, for Jesus sake.
-
For it is God who commanded light to shine out of Darkness,
-
who has Shone in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge
-
of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
-
But we have this treasure in Earthen vessels.
-
That the Excellency of the power may be of God and not of us.
-
We are hard pressed on every side yet not crushed.
-
We are perplexed, but not in despair persecuted, but not
-
forsaken. Aiken struck down but not
-
destroyed, always carrying about in the body.
-
The dying of the Lord Jesus that the life of Jesus Also may be
-
manifested in our body for we who live are always delivered to
-
death for Jesus sake. That the life of Jesus Also may
-
be manifested in our mortal flesh.
-
So then death is working on us but Life In You And since we
-
having the same Spirit of Faith to what Written, I believe and
-
therefore, I spake. We also believe in therefore, we
-
speak knowing that he who raised up Jesus from the dead will
-
present us with you. For all things are for your
-
sakes. That Grace haven't been spread
-
through the many may cause Thanksgiving to a bound to the
-
glory of God. Therefore, we do not lose heart.
-
Even though our outward man is perishing yet the inward man is
-
being renewed day by day. Day for our light light
-
afflictions which is but for a moment is working for us and us
-
a far more exceeding and eternal weight of Glory.
-
While we do not look at the things which are seen But at the
-
things which are unseen for the things which are seen are
-
temporary but the things which are unseen are eternal Man, Paul
-
went through some things, we're going to walk through some
-
things, but right in the middle of this chapter, he references,
-
Psalms 1 16:10 talking about the Exodus and what they walk
-
through. You want to see what they walk
-
through. Let's go through it real quick.
-
I'm not going to give you a choice.
-
This ministry has condition your backside.
-
Glory to God there. Withstand 3 hours.
-
I'm not going to go that long, but.
-
Amen. So let's look at the Exodus real
-
quick as Paul. He was troubled on many sides.
-
But he also references how they went through, the Exodus and
-
were troubled on many sides. Amen.
-
Hallelujah. So Exodus chapter 12.
Exodus 12 chapter mention
-
I'm getting there. Is where the Passover is
-
instituted but let's go directs his chapter 14 real quick.
-
Verse number one of Exodus 14. Okay.
-
Now the Lord spoke to Moses saying speak to the children of
-
Israel that they turn and can't before this place between Meg,
-
do and the Sea opposite Bells. Efron you shall Camp before in
-
the Seafarer will say, the children of Israel.
-
They are bewildered by the land, the Wilderness has closed them
-
in. So what is God doing?
-
He's bringing them out. But he's also putting them in a
-
position where pharaohs going to come after him.
-
Now note, if you read before this is said I'm not going to
-
leave them a certain way because if they see the war, the
-
Philistines they're going to freak out when we return.
-
God, I'll never put more on you than you're able to withstand.
-
God said, I'm not going to lead them through the Philistines,
-
but I will take them by the Red Sea, and they can handle that.
-
So, Pharaoh's heart gets hard, right?
-
He made ready his chariots, he took 600 Choice, chariots and
-
verse number 7 verse 8, the Lord hardened the heart of pharaoh,
-
the king of Egypt, he pursued the Throne of Israel and the
-
children of Israel went out with bonus.
-
So the Egyptians pursue them, all their horses, and Chariots
-
of pharaoh his Horsemen and his army overtook them camping by
-
the Sea. And when the Pharaoh Drew near
-
the children of Israel, lifted their eyes and they beheld the
-
Egyptians that marched after them.
-
So they were afraid. And the children of Israel cried
-
out to the Lord. They said to Moses, they said to
-
leadership Church leadership because there was no graves in
-
Egypt. Have you taken us away to die in
-
the wilderness? Why have you dealt with us to
-
bring us out of Egypt? Is this not the word that we
-
told you? And listen we told you Leave us
-
alone that we may serve the Egyptians for would have been
-
better for us to serve the Egyptians than we should die.
-
In the wilderness. That is cray cray.
-
Moses said to the people, the word of raining residents do not
-
be afraid. Stand still see the Salvation,
-
Lord, which he will accomplish for you today for the Egyptian
-
tomb. You see today, you shall not see
-
again going forward. The Lord will fight for you and
-
you shall hold your peace. The Lord said to Moses.
-
Why do the Children Cry? Tell is real go forward.
-
Today's a time to go forward today's time too.
-
Advance, always advancing a date.
-
Today's a time to keep moving forward but you're never going
-
to do that without speaking or singing the word of God.
-
Hallelujah. Lift up your Rod, stretch out
-
your hand over the sea and divide it and the children of
-
Israel shall go out on dry ground.
-
So, Moses did what God Said and guess what happened.
-
The word of the Lord came to pass, the water was split
-
Israelites went through it. God said he looked down during
-
the night, confuse the Egyptians chariots, broke their wheels.
-
They got stuck in the middle of the water.
-
Moses lifted up his hands on the other side of the red.
-
See, the water comes back over them.
-
And guess what? Their drown.
-
That's symbolic of water baptism.
-
The old is passed away so the new can come Psalm 15.
-
We got a choir in the wilderness.
-
Let's read it. So they get all excited because
-
of the Deliverance. Look at your neighbor say, break
-
the cycle. Look at the one other side.
-
Say quit complaining. Look on their own side.
-
Quit murmuring. Look straight ahead, said.
-
I got it. I got it.
-
I got it. I got it.
-
I got it. There's just something about
-
that. Hallelujah.
-
Some people just woke up. I've been trying to Pastor
-
Marcus about my gift of singing for over a decade.
-
He's real nice to me and just says, keep working it.
-
So Moses and children of Israel sang, the song to the Lord and
-
spoke. I will sing a lord.
-
He for, he has, triumphed gloriously the horse and it's
-
Rider. He has thrown in to see the Lord
-
is my strength and song. He has become my salvation.
-
He's my God, I will praise him. My father's got I will exalt
-
him. The Lord is a man of war.
-
The Lord is his name, Pharaoh's chariots, and his army has cast
-
into the sea. See his chosen captions
-
Captain's also are drowned. In the Red Sea The Depths have
-
covered them. They sank to the bottom like a
-
stone, your right hand O Lord has become glorious Empower your
-
right hand. Our Lord has dashed the enemy in
-
pieces and the greatness of Your Excellence.
-
You have overthrown. Those Who Rose up against you
-
you sent forth your wrath and consume them like stubble and
-
with the blast of your nostrils. The waters were get a tattoo.
-
Together the flood stood, upright, and a heap.
-
The Depths congealed in the heart of the sea, The enemy
-
said, I will pursue our overtake.
-
I would divide the spoil. My desire shall be satisfied on
-
them. I will draw my sword.
-
My hand shall destroy them, but you blew with your wind.
-
This is what the enemy's talking.
-
But the Bible says, you blew with your wind, the sea cover
-
them. They sank like lead in The
-
Mighty Waters. Who is like you?
-
Oh Lord. Among the gods who is like you
-
glorious in Holiness, fearful and Praises doing wonders.
-
You stretched out your hand, your right hand, the Earth
-
swallowed them. M, you and your mercy have led
-
forth to people whom you have redeemed.
-
You have got to them in your strength to your holy
-
habitation. The people will hear and be
-
afraid sorrow will take hold of the inhabitants of philistia.
-
Then the chiefs of edom's will be dismayed.
-
The Mighty Men of Moab, trembling will take, hold him
-
all the inhabitants of Canaan will melt away, dread will fall
-
on them by the greatness of your arm.
-
They will be as still as a stone till your priest.
-
Passover. Lord whom you have purchased,
-
you will bring them in and plant them in the mountain of your
-
inheritance in the place. O Lord, which you have made for
-
your dwelling, the sanctuary, our Lord which your hands have
-
made the launch of the Lord shall reign forever.
-
Then listen verse 20, the Miriam, the prophetess, the
-
sister of Aaron took the Timber on her hand and all the women
-
went out with her with the timbrel and with the dances we
-
talked about reverberate and they're playing the temple that
-
in the wilderness making noise. Eyes, it's resonating.
-
There's a sound Miriam answer and said sing to the Lord for.
-
He has triumphed gloriously the horse and it's Rider.
-
He has thrown into the sea. So they go through a pressure
-
situation. They praise the Lord and guess
-
what? They're perfect.
-
No. What's an esper say?
-
Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea.
-
They went out in the wilderness. Three days.
-
After this great Victory, they came to Mara.
-
They could not drink the waters for.
-
They were bitter, the people they complain.
-
Turn your neighbor. Say I'm going to get it right.
-
Turn them on the other side. Said I'm getting it right.
-
Look, straight ahead. Say I'm starting today.
-
So they went from Victory, praise to complaining God, had
-
to give an anointed word again, to Moses said, take the tree,
-
Throw in the water and guess what?
-
The bitter waters are going to be made.
-
Sweet. So, guess what happens after
-
that? Chapter 16.
-
They journeyed the children of Israel came to Israel, came to
-
Wilderness, which is between two places there on the 15th day of
-
the second month after they parted from Land of Egypt there.
-
Just two months into this journey.
-
And the children of Israel said, oh, that we had died.
-
By the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt.
-
When we sat, by the pots of meat, And when we ate bread to
-
the full for you, brought us out into the Wilderness to kill us.
-
This whole community. Then the Lord said to Moses
-
behold, I'm going to rain down bread from heaven.
-
So God gives a plan for how he's going to provide for them, which
-
is a thing called mana mana, literally means what is that?
-
He said, but God and instructions, you know, law,
-
when we talk about Kingdom, there's laws in the Kingdom.
-
And in the Hebrew mine laws, always were a positive because
-
they gave instruction. We think a laws sometimes in the
-
- that they're restricting. Thank God for the yellow lines
-
and the white lines and the speed limit.
-
And the red light and the green light.
-
That's not to keep you from having fun.
-
That's to preserve your life. And that's a positive thing.
-
Thank God for the law of faithfulness in a marriage,
-
covenant. From the kingdom because that's
-
to preserve, right? You step outside that law.
-
That's going to bring danger death.
-
And destruction is there. Mercy in that?
-
Yeah, but have been better to stay Within.
-
The bounce that God has set, right?
-
So he gives him a law of how you're going to get the man
-
every day and do they follow that go out.
-
Get enough for that day. Don't keep any till the next
-
day. On the sixth day get double
-
because the 7th is a day of rest.
-
So blister, Darlin hearts in their stupid heads.
-
They still have people after God gave instruction.
-
Oh, thank God that his Mercy endures forever.
-
That didn't fall that they kept worms to the next.
-
They kept bread to the next day. And then guess what?
-
Its tank and had worms, is your life stinky.
-
And does it breed worms? Don't answer that.
-
But if it is, if you're valuing Lord, what do I need to break
-
free this year? What key in the kingdom?
-
Do I need talk right into get freedom in my life.
-
Even on the seventh day, some didn't gather enough and they
-
went hungry. And God said, you're just not
-
following instructions after this.
-
Exodus 17, you think they get it right by then?
-
Thank God for his Mercy. They start complaining about
-
water again. We don't have anything to drink
-
so they go from bitter. Waters to hunger to thirst.
-
And they want to go backwards instead of forward.
-
And God saying listen, go forward.
-
So guess what, even in the middle they're complaining, God
-
always brings a word to bring deliverance and he gives Moses a
-
word about the Rock and striking it to bring water.
-
Then, the next thing comes up, Exodus 17, there's a war that
-
takes place with the amalekites. Now, amalekites represents your
-
flesh. Everybody pinch yourself.
-
Repeat yourself. Your flesh didn't mean for you
-
to hurt yourself. Somebody said how.
-
But that's really the amalekites is from generation to
-
generation. Exodus 17 says.
-
But it says have they overcome that Moses sat on the Rock Jesus
-
said Upon This Rock of Revelation.
-
I'm going to build my church and the Gates of Hell shall not
-
Prevail against it. Moses set on the Rock and then
-
Aaron a her lifted, his hands. Remember this is year of raining
-
residents. One way to praise God, is to
-
lift your hands and in lifting, your hands here.
-
Became known as Jehovah, Nissi. The Lord is my banner.
-
So, you want to get Victory this year?
-
Do you want Victory this year? I just don't want Victory.
-
I want a dynasty. For all you unfortunate, Alabama
-
fans. As painful as it is.
-
If you're a fan of Alabama, they win year after year after year,
-
people don't like the Patriots either.
-
When they were at their Peak because they one year and it
-
wasn't your team. Hallelujah.
-
You realize that God wants you to win year after year.
-
After year, God wants you to win year after year.
-
After year, Caleb said I'm 85 and I'm gonna win, give me this
-
mountain. I'm well able, what was his
-
confession? He was saying the same.
-
Same thing that God said I'm about to unleash on you right
-
now. Pastor Marcus, thank you so much
