I am not going to preach sermon tonight. I'm not
-
going in here.
-
I am going to say this that years ago, there
-
was an elderly Baptist preacher, old Baptist preacher by the
-
name of Robert Greenlee R G Lee. R g Lee
-
pastored for forever. R g Lee was bold. He was
-
a Baptist, but he was a very bold man. He's
-
a man that preached the revival in the church. And
-
when the pastor said, brother Lee, what do you think
-
my church really needs? He said, about two or three
-
good funerals would probably fix it. But for every every
-
Easter Sunday, for years and years and years, R. G
-
Lee preached the same message. He preached a message called
-
Payday Someday. I've read it, and I've heard him preach it.
-
I've listened to it on tape him preaching it.
-
And R.
-
G Lee really kept stressing that payday And wouldn't it
-
be sad that for a Christian, for a child of God,
-
for a child of the King, for blood bought, sanctified
-
holy goldes feel a child to think that the blessing
-
of the Lord is always something that's someday, someday I'll
-
get help. Some day it'll be over. Someday I'll get
-
over this. Someday I'll receive the Holy Gold. Someday I'll
-
receive sanctification. Someday I'll see the blessings come. Now. I
-
say that, if it's not been proved to you yet,
-
if it's not been proven to you yet here at Bethel,
-
pay day is not someday. Pay day is every day,
-
every day that I live. I am blessed. When I
-
wake up in the morning, till a lame MyD rest,
-
I am blessed.
-
I am blessed. Amen.
-
I don't know who wrote that song, but I don't
-
know why they They went to such a low common
-
denominator that said, I have shoes on my feet. Not
-
all God, please me, that's all amen. But I do
-
have a home up in heaven.
-
Bye and bye. And not only do we have a
-
home up in heaven, but brother, how we have a God.
-
Amen that throughout the Old Testament, that the spirit of
-
God is omnipi, the spirit of God is from everlasting
-
to everlasting.
-
There's never been a time there wasn't a holy ghost. Amen.
-
And he moved very very much corporately through the Old
-
Testament Amen. There were individuals that he blessed, Samson, he
-
moved on at times. But to think that here in
-
this church that we have the Holy Ghost of God
-
that lives with us individually, you have a person little
-
relationship with the Godhead. Amen, Town, don't tell me payday
-
someday I've been payday for Payday for me is every
-
time I walk through the doors of the House of God,
-
when I wake up every morning, I say thank you
-
Lord for another day. When I can say this is
-
the day that the Lord hath made, I will rejoice.
-
And be glad they'rein.
-
When I can see my bride of my my my
-
childhood bride, the only girlfriend I ever had. When I
-
can see her over there dancing in the spirit with
-
these other Saints of God, seeing the Holy Ghost move
-
on her.
-
Heymen, do you think that's not payday? Amen? Amen?
-
Is it not payday when you can look around the
-
church and you say, thank God for the for the
-
footmen that I run with, thank God for the pastor
-
thank God for the preachers, thank God for the musicians,
-
thank God for the singers, thank God for the teachers.
-
Amen. Pay days every day? Amen. Amen.
-
Had to look back at the back and see brother
-
Tyler and Brother Gabriel shouting and dancing back there. No,
-
there ain't gonna be nothing. Nothing breached the gates back
-
there tonight. No and no possible way.
-
Amen. Amen. Amen. That missionary that worked, I believe it was.
-
It was one of the African countries.
-
He went to this distant, distant, distant village and started
-
a church, and nobody came to church.
-
Nobody. For years he would preach.
-
He would get up every morning, he would ring the
-
church bell, and nobody would come in, and he would
-
sit down with his wife and children and have church
-
with him. One night, they were getting ready to retire,
-
and by the how they heard the drums in the
-
distant village start beating, and he recognized the cadence there
-
was the war drums beating. And he brought his wife
-
close to him and he said, bring the children in here.
-
Let's gather, huddle in a circle and pray, because we
-
may not see tomorrow morning.
-
And they prayed and they prayed.
-
And according to his testimony, when they stopped praying, it
-
was daylight.
-
So he did what he always did. He went out
-
there and rang the bell again.
-
This time every one of the villagers came down there,
-
and as they got to the clearing of the church,
-
they started laying their clubs down, They started laying their
-
spears down, they started laying their blades down, and they
-
started walking in, one, the chief leading them one after another.
-
They walked in and circled the church till the church
-
was full, and he preached Jesus Christ and him crucified
-
to him, and brother stared the old chief. All of them,
-
all of them, he let in, all of them. The
-
entire village got saved. The entire village got saved. And
-
years later, years later, him and the chie the village chieftain,
-
who by now was his close personal friend, his confidant
-
in the church, his elder in the church, his deacon,
-
if you will, They were sitting there talking one day
-
and he said something I've been wanting to ask you
-
for years, and I just never have been able to.
-
He said, that night you came to kill us. And
-
the Chief said, yeah, we did, We sure did. He said,
-
what was it that changed your mind? He said, well,
-
it was all those shining soldiers that were circling your
-
church with their swords pointed outward. Pay day every day,
-
pay day, every day. First time I crossed the Mississippi
-
River to preach, I preached for Brother Leon Buzzard when
-
he pastored at Mount Tabor, Arkansas. Brother Leon told about
-
when he received the baptism of the Holy Ghost, and
-
he talked about how that in that revival he came
-
to the alder night after night after night after night
-
after night, praying and praying and praying and praying, and
-
said he just couldn't go through, couldn't get it, couldn't
-
get through to it, And said that one night he
-
got up and went to the older brother Jesse and
-
said there was an old elderly Indian man come to
-
help him, old Cherokee Indian come to help him. Said
-
he had on brand new bibbed overhauls on a brand
-
new flannel shirt. Said that old Cherokee Indian come up there,
-
say he had the whitest hair I've ever seen and
-
the bluest eyes I've ever seen. And said that old
-
Cherokee Indian prayed with him and prayed with him, and
-
prayed with him, and prayed with him and prayed with
-
him until finally he went through and rolled in the
-
floor and flopped in the floor.
-
And after it was.
-
All over with brother Dylan he Man, and the pastor said, Leon,
-
would you like say something? He said, I sure would.
-
First thing, I'd like to thank that old brother that
-
helped me praying. Everybody looked at him and said, Leon,
-
there was nobody with you tonight. You were right by
-
yourself that there was nobody up there.
-
But you paydays every day.
-
If you are of the payday Someday persuasion. If you
-
are of the payday Someday persuasion, and you know who
-
you are. If you are, I hope nobody is. But
-
if you happen to be or having to be listening
-
to this and are, would you do me a favor
-
before we get back tomorrow night, would you pray this
-
prayer with me? Lord?
-
I want to trade my someday for every day. I
-
want to trade my someday that I've been holding on to.
-
That's someday that I've been grasping, that's someday that I've
-
been counting on.
-
That someday, Amen, I want to trade it right now
-
for every day. God bless you. Guy dark dark A,
