What Are You Attaching Yourself To? - Bro Timothy Grant 7-21-2024

I'm going about a blow in your soul, and you gotta re you got

it, it said they raising h Amen, I know you just get worship.

Uh ohn't know, I know, I know left. Shoot, you

don't have to manuse the s m hm hm walk fast falling. No,

I'll tell you the reason I like this song so much, and the reason

that thrills me so much because I've got friends. That was stove Paddy.

They say, once a heroin addict, always a heroin addict. But we

got proof in the holiness that that is a lie. O my dad even

the drinking, but God delivered it from drinking. Hey, man, he

can't do such things as this is nobody but God. Nobody but God can

do such things. He says, He's only one sense. I don't care

where you are, right man, the hell heal of a heart. My

dad had some heart conditions at Manna. Come on now, he had only

had one or two heart attacks and looks like he's getting ready to have another

one. And God and healed them that night. I deliver it from drinking.

Tell us nine done. Nobody, nobody, nobody but my God.

You can't take a lad. Then the world says it then s stating pointed,

so in talking, appreciate the Lord, so glad for the mercies of

God love. Yeah, I'll tell you what. Some of us has had

a lot of experience. We're getting the wind about that day. Uh huh,

all right. I used to box, and if you boxed for very

long, you realize that protect yourself and you take some punishment. And uh,

I just you know, since some sometimes you learn, you learn how

to do things after a while. And and one thing is so boy didn't

do he didn't like to lose it. I didn't like to lose it.

And uh, when was up and you followed the harmon and and my coach

she sit with me out and uh, he showed me, well, you

know you got to go by way, you know, the first to go,

and showed me that boy. He said, if you'll find no about

your brothers, he said, so we've found him. Boy. He said,

we're gonna let your fight. We'll let your box and show me who

he was. And I'm telling you he had me on the edge. This

dude was. He was sure, and he was stumpy, and he was

muscled up. And look back, he'd been boxing the whole lot longer and

I had on then about a year. And uh so when when it finally

come down to the time for the house, it wasn't more nice closed box,

but he hadn't shook up. And I'll just tell you you did it.

The first round got me in the corner, and I don't know Shore

had one all. I know what he told me. He said, you

lost the first one. He said you better get him and do something.

And there was something hitting that that night. I realized I had to do

something. And when I come out of that cowd, I come out swim.

And the next thing I knew with the feel that they was pulling me

off of this student. He was laying between the ropes and I didn't know

for sure what I've done. They called technical knockout. I just you know,

I can hardly believe it, but I said, you get hit hard

enough and you'll come out of fight. You'll come out of fight. It's

not good to get to wind. Unto those anybody here, every raised hogs,

Ever raise hogs, You ever seen how easy they can get out of

a super duperson. Sure had some piglets there got out and was chasing the

dns. May my siblings in the man. I I was tired of missing

it, the same I was tired of the boy I made. I was

right on the thank of his business. I thought, I'm gonna miss it

this time. And I got closer. If I just stretched out, and

when I hit the ground, the pig that was gone. And my sister

say, are you all right? Are you are? It's not it's not

a good thing. It's not young, and it's not a good thing to

get put out of the day. Yeah. Gone. God knows how to

help us. He knows how to help us tonight. And I told us

in the House of God, I was hoping to be John be here tonight

kind of help me out on this message. But the Lord knows where we're

act. And Thursday, after I had preached, the Lord began to deal

with my heart. And I hope I can say something to get somebody tonight.

I want to go to Judges the seventeenth chapter Judges, chapter seventeen.

I want to begin reading here in the third verse Judge is seventeen, verse

three, And when he had restored the eleven hundred sheckels of silver to his

mother, his mother said, I had wholly dedicated the silver of the Lord

from my hand for my son to make a graven image and a multen image.

Now therefore I will restore it under thee. He restored the money out

to his mother, and his mother took two hundred sheckels of silver and gave

them to the founder, who made their other graven image molten image. And

they were in the house myself and the man Micah had a house of gods,

noticed the little gods and made him Epho and I'm terrible, and consecrated

one of his sons, who became his priest. In those days, there

was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in

his own eyes. And there was a young man out of Bethlehem, Judah,

of the family of Judah, who was a Levi, and he sojourned

there. And the man departed out of the city of Bethlehem Judah to sojourn

where he could find the place. And he came to Mount Ephraim, to

the house of Micah as he journey, and mike con said of the young

whence comes that? And he said, unto him, I am a Levite.

The bed with him the journey, and I go to Sergio sojourn where

I may find a place, And Mike consent unto him the well with us,

and be unto me a father and a priest, and I will give

thee ten shekels of silver by the year, a sun of apparel, and

thy ventures. So the levite went in, and a levit was content to

dwell with the man, and the young man was unto him as one of

his sons. And Michael consecrated the levite, and the young man became his

priest and was in the house of Micah. Then said Michaeh, Now no

idea. The Lord will do me good. See I have a lead by

the grist. He was deceit. Yeah, he was deceived. It sounds

like a really a good story. But when you look at you made molded

images. He made a uh, false gods. He was deceived. He

was a deceived man. Micaah. Uh this this, this levite, this

soul journ. What was he looking for a true place of worship? He

was just looking for a place. Really, No matter God, what they

have in I have house, what they have, They're all I want is

a place. I'm not down here because I'm just looking for a place.

Are you just looking for a place tonight. There's a lot of things out

there. There are amen there are graven images, there's molten images. There's

a lot of things. There are housands of gods all around us. Is

that all we're looking for? The place? I'm not interesting in just a

place. I'm not interesting in being deceed. I don't want to be a

man taken over by by lost or by something that will deceive me and leave

me in a wrong direction. Just applies, Okay, help me, Lord

Lord. I'm wanting to go to Isaiah chapter forty four. MM. Isaiah

chapter forty four. I agree here Beginning in the first verse, didn't I

hear Jacob my servant, and Israel and not a chosen That's said the Lord

that made thee and informed me from the wound, which will help fear?

Not, Oh Jacob, my servant, and thou Jesu, whom I have

chosen for, I will pour water upon him one day's thirst even and floods

upon the dry ground. I will pour my spirit upon thy sea, and

my blessings upon thy offering, and they shall spring up as among the grass

as willows by the water courses. One shall say I am the Lord's and

another shall call himself by the name of Jacob, and another shall subscribe with

his hand unto the Lord and surnames himself by the name of Israel. Thus

saith the Lord, the King of Israel, and history deems the Lord of

Host. I am the first, I am the last right, and besides

me there is no God. And to whom as I shall come and shall

declare it and set it in an order for me. Since I pointed the

ancient people and the things that are coming and shall come, let them show

unto them fear ye not, neither be afraid. Have not I told thee

Can't even or me. But when I do and I start, I don't

want to bother my mind because it's not confident. We're going to teach ourselves

to something and listen, yes, and it's walk back. You are going

to attach your ship something else. If it is not the spirit of an

almighty God that will help you and deliver you out of your tribes, your

dictations. You're going to find yourself. You want to find yourself in a

bad place. I don't know what kind of song do we need tonight?

Go? Who we're going to attach ourselves to? Go? Oh, we'll

singing that song. Sometimes I belng to the Lord. Yes I do,

Yes I do. I've been all to the Lord. Yes I do and

slipping didn't. Hey, I can't hear you on my baby. But who

are we going to attach ourselves? How are you feeling? And I want

to attach to all. I want to teach in the spirit of God and

the power of God. After God. You mine may define yourself of plassing

the saughter. You may have my heart disease heaven. You may have an

issue that God can do something about don'tne of God. But I like to

say the Lord to the Lord, yes I do, Yes, I do

I belong. Yeah, listen, let him give me some Do I come

I hope that I said something unsimply we aren't such are curious hour a

dangerous sound a man. They read that the song that I asked what he

said it to us and said, when Salen is now danger it's dangerous.

It's dangerous. People's doing things they're not don't think of anything about, and

they're not even aware that is effectively walk it's not they're not even aware it's

Him in your relationship. If we don't know the word of God and what

the word of God says, it's easy to get scared. But I have

found that God knows who's how to be over here. If we're not careful,

we get those that are the house of God and the backs, and

when they come back to the House of God, they think God's got to

deal with them all over again about all of these sins they was doing that

they know when they pray all of those things should mean that you stop that

we think we can bapchlight in all of those things, those commivements that we

made to God and those vowels that we told God would do. Just somehow

Ben saw that's not the word sact sense of God. It does not work

that you belong to the Lord, and you know what's wrong. You're gonna

do it or you are going to attach yourself to something, a lying spirit,

a demon that's whispered over your shoulder. Tell me you don't have to

do that. But I'm glad tonight. I want to say, I'm a

Jesus, I am a same mind, same spirit. Um hm. We

suppose have same thoughts, godly thoughts interesting most if nothing else, we need

to examine ourselves and examine our lives. H need to be because of the

sun. When I belonged to the church, sure I do. I'm not

going to forsake the church right h m hm. The church is not on

each I appreciate your love for this man. I love you too. I

love you. I cannot come to this man and this meeting right I'm now,
