-

-
In a bolow.
-
First p Chapter one, last sund that we talked about
-
is coming, It's coming, and that was just Jesus coming,
-
and it's already here.
-
Amen.
-
It's not just coming, it's here now. And so today
-
I want to talk about are we ready?
-
I was ready? Are we ready?
-
But the title today is are you feel? Because if
-
you're not feeling, you ain't ready?
-
Amen. Are we feel today?
-
Feel with what the Father, the Son, and the Holy
-
Spirit on the fields. Because if we're not feeling, we're
-
not ready.
-
Are you feeling?
-
In First Peter, Chapter one, in verse two, if you're there,
-
say amen, Well we're gonna start in verse one you're
-
not ready to say? Wait on men? Amen, Man the
-
word of the Lord for the people of God. Peter,
-
an apostle of Jesus Christ to the strangers scattered throughout.
-
Pascious nature. Do see Asian and divinized Elect elect God?
-
Remember that word elect according to the full knowledge of God,
-
which he already knew.
-
In other words, the Father through sanctification of the Spirit
-
unto obedience, and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ,
-
Grace unto you, and peace the multiplied.
-
Now he's talking to the elect of God.
-
The ones that are chosen of God for are true
-
salvation according to.
-
The fortunate knowledge of God the Father.
-
So his fore knowledge simply perceives that he at they
-
has advanced knowledge of already knowing who he is setting
-
apart for the Gospel of Jesus Christ in his nation
-
of eternity, because he lives in eternity right, and.
-
He's gonna bring certain ones into.
-
This eternity, into his special relation, into a special relationship
-
with him. And the Spirit of God is setting apart
-
for salvation for those who would believe. And he says
-
in the sprinkling, He's gonna sprinkle the blood upon those.
-
It is a symbol of.
-
Acceptance or a symbol of Jehovah's acceptance of those who
-
he has called into the Gospel of Jesus Christ, those
-
that are chosen of him. A man, somebody, let us
-
look at Jesus Chapter one, verse four. I have a
-
few scriptures here. I want to at the minister before
-
we begin to break it down a man Eesus chapter
-
one and versing four. And the Bible said, according as
-
he had chosen, and we're gonna get. He has chosen
-
us in him before the foundation of the world, that
-
we should be fallen and without blame before him in love,
-
having pre destinated us unto the adoption of children by
-
Jesus Christ. The adoption we are an adoption of his
-
sons by Jesus Christ, who is our Lord.
-
And say that, and it said by.
-
Jesus Christ, and him according to the good pleasure of
-
his will, to the praise of the glory of his grace,
-
wherein he had made up accepted in the beloved. So
-
then he's talking about the chosen of us. Those here
-
have chosen.
-
His sealed a man. And then he goes on again
-
in Second Tientoity chapter two and verse nineteen. How you
-
with me.
-
Chapter two and verse nineteen sept Ten. Second tienthy Chapter
-
two and verse nineteen, he says, nevertheless, the foundation of
-
God stand. It's sure, having this seal the Lord, this
-
is the seal the Lord know them that are his.
-
And let everyone that name it the name and means
-
continually naming the name of our.
-
Christ.
-
Depart from those that are continuing with the name of
-
Jesus Christ. Continue in the faith, continue in the faith
-
of Him, and refrain from iniquity, sin and man.
-
Iniquity is of the heart.
-
Amen. And he goes on in Romans chapter five and
-
many times, as God is talking about who he has chosen,
-
we are to begin to believe in our minds. And
-
he's serious about the chosen ones that he has chosen,
-
the ones that he knows. The Bible said before the foundation,
-
he already knew who was gonna be his. He already
-
knew before he said that thirty life, he already knew
-
who was gonna be his. And in Romans chapter five
-
he started in verse ten, he says, for if when
-
we were enemies, we were reconciled in God by the
-
of His son, much more being reconciled we shall be
-
saved by his life. So having been reconciled means being
-
brought back to God by the life of Jesus Christ.
-
And not only so verse eleven, But we.
-
Also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by
-
whom we have now received the atonement. We have received
-
the reconciliation through Jesus Christ. And it reconciles us back
-
to God when we were once lost. For if we
-
in verse ten, when we were enemies, Now we have
-
been reconciled back by Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
-
Amen.
-
So as the Holy Spirit you may be seeded in
-
happ the Lord, the Holy Spirit of God has handlighted
-
descriptures for our understanding, Amen, and for our mirror. And
-
we must mirror ourselves according to this word today. Amen,
-
What are you talking about?
-
I mean there's no looking around. I mean there's no
-
thought in your mind about anybody else. This word today
-
is for you.
-
It may be for somebody you know as well, but
-
right now you're supposed to be thinking about you, Amen.
-
Because the Holy Spirit has high life of the passages
-
descriptions from the Holy.
-
Writ the Bible.
-
It brings out the process, the plan, and the purpose
-
and tad that God has placed up on.
-
Each of our lives.
-
Aymen, there's so many of us walking around every day
-
and don't have a clue, not clue about how God
-
wants us.
-
You, hey, man, we.
-
Don't have a clue about how God wants to use
-
us in service to Him.
-
And to others and for his glove.
-
Well, today I'm telling you to search no more, Search
-
no more.
-
Your help is here. And it's in the context of these.
-
Extracted passages of scripture from the mind of God. We
-
do understand this is his mind a man. But first
-
let us understand this God. How should I say? Let's
-
make it personal. Our God is eternal. Would you agree
-
with me? We got there right. We understand he's eternal
-
and he lives in eternity, so there's no time where
-
he is.
-
It's just existence and man, we understand that.
-
So he knows the end from the beginning and everything
-
in between.
-
So what am I saying. I'm saying in the beginning
-
of time.
-
Let me even say it like it before time, God
-
knew who he had chosen. God knew before time, and
-
then before the foundation.
-
Of the world, which was before.
-
Time, and then when times started to begin to exist
-
when he said, let that be the life, he knew
-
when he said, let that be the life, he knew
-
in the six days of creation that he knew our
-
end and our beginning and everything in between. And man,
-
which means he knows. He knew the day that you
-
will be born, and you know the day that you
-
will leave here. And the day that you were born,
-
between the day that you're leave. He he knows all
-
that in the game, what's gonna happen, and when he
-
got purpose, and what he choose you to do in
-
that between time.
-
He knew.
-
From the start of time, and we understand time. And
-
he loved you and chose you to be his. Now
-
take note of this. The three things that I want
-
to draw your attention to. Number one, God the Father,
-
are you listening, God the Father, show you you didn't
-
choosing He chose you.
-
Number two, God the Holy Spirit shame changes you. You
-
don't change you.
-
God the Holy Spirit will change you.
-
No, I'll change me. No, No, God the Holy Spirit
-
will change you. No, I'll change you. Well, if you
-
can change you, you don't need he.
-
And if you can change you, he was murdered and
-
didn't give up his life. So number two, God the
-
Holy Spirit changes you. And number three, God the Son
-
cleanses you.
-
Because the blood gave us redemption. The blood made us whole.
-
The blood cleansed us from sin. It cleansed us from
-
the sin of nature.
-
To a whole neck nature.
-
So the blood of Jesus is what cleansed us of
-
the sinful nature and brought us into a holy nature.
-
God the Father chose you. God, the Holy Spirit changes you.
-
God the Son cleanses you. And then we was We
-
read the scripture. In one Peter's Chapter one and verse two.
-
Peter kins this letter to the Christian and the followers
-
of Christ who had been scattered far from home, some
-
because of persecution. That's what that's just, that's just what
-
gods people do. They wouldn't let anything any clients, so
-
they left home. Then I asked, you know, I always
-
said about an hour on the third row.
-
So they left. They scam. That's what we do. It
-
ain't about God, it's about it's about me.
-
So they scattered fire from home. Some became persecuted. You
-
feel like you're being persecuted because you can't sit where
-
you want to sit, Some because of circumlits, circumstances. So
-
Peter writes to them and us today to encourage us
-
as he did to them a man.
-
In verse two, we.
-
See him saying, according to the fourth knowledge of God
-
the Father, which means that God knew us and chose
-
us long ago. Then when we read the Ephesians one
-
and four, it tells us that even before he made
-
the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ
-
to behold it, and with our fault in his eyes,
-
he knew us because we were already hit him before.
-
He birth us out Hallo looja. He already knew us.
-
He knew us before he sawmed the atmosphere and the
-
solar system. He already knew us.
-
We weren't no fault. We weren't no hindsight, no hind fault.
-
He fought knew us even before he made the world.
-
He tells us that even before he made the world,
-
God loved us and chose us in Christ to be
-
a whole ad and without fault in his eyes and
-
his eye none of my eyes nothing.
-
I'm here today passes, I may roll.
-
I'm here past, I.
-
May roll today. I mean the house of God. I
-
don't care.
-
You need to be seen. I care that you hear,
-
don't get it twisted. But I don't care that you're
-
trying to be seen by eyes. You need to be
-
seen by and your water be seen by His eyes.
-
Whether you want to.
-
Be seen or lie. Now, think of this.
-
God nw you and chose you to be set apart work.
-
I gotta work with that just see, we miss up
-
when we get saved. We get saved and still feel
-
like we can do us. But God can save you
-
to do you. He saved you to be set apart
-
for his youth.
-
Those are listening hopefully out there on anything. He saved
-
youth to be set apart for his youth. But I
-
want to but I.
-
Want to do it.
-
He ain't seen you for that. He saved you for
-
his youth.
-
I'm going to appen until advantage that add to the
-
act that that's what you want to do. He saved
-
you for his youth. And first and foremost, you ain't
-
even wait to see.
-
Your family and your neighbor. And you're going all the
-
way to Africa.
-
You had a water.
-
Home. First, he saved you. He choose you to be
-
set apart. And God chose those whom he knew.
-
He chose those whom he knew would believe a man,
-
those that would believe and the big vision and trust him.
-
You say believe, but you don't trust him. Guess what
-
you don't believe? They go together.
-
Yeah, I'm Thursday, so he had nothing to drinking about
-
twelve hours. I believe this is a good, clean walk Okay,
-
I trust.
-
Without believe in good clean water. I can dress on
-
hey man.
-
But he chose those who believed and trust in him.
-
But yet he still has given us free will. Yet
-
he knew who would willingly.
-
Are y'all hearing me today?
-
He knew who would willingly repent and turn to him,
-
because that's what repentance is, turning from you to him,
-
turning from it to him, turning from the world to him.
-
You see, lots of white didn't have true repentance because
-
she turned back to the world.
-
Thank you.
-
Hold He gave us free will.
-
And still knew who would repent and turn to him?
-
Ay Man, who would willingly not be forced to do so?
-
Because if you forced to do so, it ain't real
-
to God. If somebody's forcing you to love him, if
-
your your love ain't real, you I'm not real.
-
They're trying to bade you, They trying to force you.
-
You may go along with him, but you don't love him.
-
You love what they're doing, but you don't love him.
-
Shell.
-
God will let back in presents, but you don't love him.
-
You love what they're doing. Simply put, God knew it's
-
just a sa see and not only did God. God knew,
-
God knows he didn't only knew so many out there
-
trying to deceive them as see their own selves about
-
what this word says they can and can't do.
-
They deceive in their own self. And a whole lot
-
of them know the.
-
Word telling the name for me doing that, but they
-
they twisted it so much of their mind.
-
They believe a lot.
-
They believe it a lot, and it's hard to get
-
them away. I don't care what you I'm minister of
-
the people. They're a minister of the people here and
-
over hearing over there, and I tell them the same gospel.
-
I give them the rain, the raining word of God,
-
the Holy Rick.
-
They hear, they listening, but they don't no bad. They
-
hear and listen, but they don't no bad. As many
-
times as how to quote it, and told my sister
-
about these hope holidays when God said any word.
-
He don't have holidays. He has holidays.
-
That's the word at he said, my days are all that.
-
And as many times out of the minister, even if
-
my own sister called me talking about can I help
-
her doing that because she's struggling to buy presents from
-
her kids on Christmas, I said, girl, I wouldn't give
-
a dollar for Christmas, not penny.
-
I said, how, I told you that's a pay your holiday.
-
I said, when I answer to something, why is she
-
struggling to give her kids something?
-
On the on the what the world claims is a
-
birthday for Jesus?
-
Why she struggled to get things for them when it's
-
somebody else's birthday?
-
What's the struggle? What's the struggle?
-
Dad?
-
I said, ma'am, you know not to call me for
-
no mess like that, out of role like that.
-
Don't nobody know what Jesus' birthday is, nobody but Jesus
-
and God. But I don't care when the birthday was.
-
All I care about is that he was posing. I
-
don't care when he was boring. I'm just glad he
-
was boring. Won't you get that message? But are you
-
trying to figure out? Some folks ain't.
-
Trying to figure out. They just going with the flood,
-
no matter what you tell them. They've been so deeply
-
ruined and it's foolishness. They just go with the flood.
-
And God knows, he knows who would believe, who would
-
know their need of them?
-
He knew who believed.
-
And he also knew that who knew they would need
-
of saving you.
-
And who would have faith in our Messiah of Jesus Christ.
-
Then he would sin, and he knew who would turn
-
to Jesus as their personal Lord, and saying, God already
-
knew that God ain't God, ain't been out our fox
-
with folks won't received He like.
-
He ain't gonna take it all. He did what no
-
God know. They wasn't gonna accept him.
-
They didn't accept him back then. They still doing the
-
same thing now because of the same spirit. Can't kill
-
the spirit you're gonna live, where's gonna live the whole
-
a soul rather than can't kill it, He can't kill
-
a spirit. That's really why. The same spirit way back
-
that were talking to King is the same ones talking
-
to us today.
-
And we don't know how far high far back that book, but.
-
They still here. But God knew, he knew you, and
-
he chose you long ago.
-
You see.
-
God knew who would turn Jesus as their personal law
-
and saved. And we look and we see her in
-
this world today. That God, the Holy Spirit, he changes you.
-
God the Father knew you and old you long ago
-
and his Spirit has made you, because he's called the
-
Holy Spirit. And if he's in you, you should be going, Hey,
-
that's about See. As the disciples of Christ, this is
-
the thing we're missing. That word disciple don't hold a
-
lot of weight with folks claiming salvation. The disciples are
-
those that follow Christ. The word disciple means follows of Christ.
-
Are you with it?
-
But they are claiming to be disciples, but they ain't
-
following Christ. Those folks standing behind these torpids claiming to
-
be the disciples of Jesus Christ, but they ain't following Christ.
-
They're following their own man doctrine and giving it to
-
the people, and the people are receiving it because why
-
they a following Christ? But the Holy Spirit he comes
-
to change you change out all this and then and
-
when he's changes all this, when it changes it doesn't
-
want to do anything but follow Christ.
-
See see the disciples of Christ. See, we are set.
-
Apart for God's purpose in this world, in this world,
-
and that's a serious charge that God has put upon us,
-
because there are souls.
-
That need to be saved.
-
And one of the major purposes of us being set
-
apart for his youth is to minister this gospel to
-
the loss that they too may be saved.
-
Yes, we're supposed to give me blood. We're supposed to
-
give me crazy. He made us for that.
-
But also our purpose is to help souls to be saved.
-
We can't save nobody. We can only lead them to suvage.
-
Jesus is that's why they call him a savior. We
-
ain't the save you.
-
We may have the savings in us to work. The
-
work is the savior, but he saves them. He gives
-
us to see the plant and the water to water with,
-
and the nurture and to nuture with, but he does
-
the saving.
-
A man, it's a serious.
-
Charge because at the moment we gave our lives to Christ,
-
we were saving and we are saving. But there is
-
an owns only process of change and sanctification because a
-
lot of us get saved, but we still need to.
-
Be delivered, hey man. And that's where people lose hope.
-
They think once they get saved, they just I'm there, sir. No,
-
you're not still book private, working your way up the ranks.
-
Being delivered for what you need to be delivered from.
-
And you won't be saved until you do it.
-
To the end. Amen, you're in the plan of salvation
-
once you get saved. Do you understand it's a plan
-
of salvation.
-
We got to work the planning we been set apart,
-
to work the planning for the purpose God set us apart.
-
You might be a thumb, I might be a small
-
the small thing. You may be ahead, but we're all
-
part of the mindy work in the plan. Amen, for
-
the same purpose. We might need to go in a
-
different direction, but it's all going to say. When we
-
get to going that way.
-
This way, that way, this way, this way, that way,
-
we all will end up right here all together. Amen.
-
I just gotta be an ongoing process of change and sactification.
-
It's got to continue in us and in our lives
-
until God calls us to step into eternity. This ain't
-
a Sunday thing, and not on Monday two to windy Thursday, Friday,
-
Saturday thing.
-
This ain't just a Sunday thing.
-
This is seven days when week free in sixty five
-
here in sixty six days a year. It's a continuation
-
of living for Christ. He only number one way?
-
How can he? How can you go in a different direction?
-
If He's in you and the Holy Ghost is bringing
-
about the change.
-
What's the change to be more like him? There's not
-
more one direction, and we go in that direction toil.
-
God calls us to step into eternity where we came from.
-
The Holy Spirit works in us to transform and change us.
-
The people of God. We can't be like the world.
-
Their months built difference, and people should see the difference.
-
And they looking at the church today and we look
-
like them. And that's why their souls are going to
-
be lost because of a church. Were looking like them.
-
Talking like them, walking like them, dressing like them. We
-
look like.
-
Them, acting like them, and that is the worst part.
-
We can't be like the world. Why the black bull says,
-
we are peculiar people.
-
So those threats over being odd, you are you strange?
-
You peculiar? You don't look like them at like them.
-
They want you to so they can feel comfortable around you.
-
But if they feel comfortable around you, then you change
-
your wall. Folks ain't comfortable around me. Nobody hangs out
-
with Brother Thomas. Nobody nobody knocks on the door to
-
visit Brother Tom.
-
Can do the bad. You can hear the head nobody
-
And when they are around me, this is how they
-
are around me. I got guys that welcome me as smoke.
-
If he's standing there and I'm standing there when you
-
pull that cigarette?
-
Just what do you do?
-
Oh?
-
Where you live? And then I'll walk.
-
I only pay attention to hand time, And I said, hey, man,
-
I have to tege something and I'll be walking to them.
-
Let me still and walking away from me. And then
-
I realized why they keep backing up.
-
You're not supposed to look like them, but we but
-
we look like them. There are those of us we
-
look like them, greedy for everything, not satisfied with nothing.
-
It's proven. You got a castor of a church already
-
got a jet.
-
But he wanted the church to come up with sixty
-
five and kneed dollars to get him another.
-
And they did it. They did it. Not enough. I
-
need this for ministry.
-
It has been reports to you on that jet for
-
personal things with your family.
-
That's not minister. You ain't menising your family, y'all and
-
join y'allself doing that.
-
Because a medisine came to member, right, can the medicine
-
came the member? Can we just fill up the train
-
and go somewhere.
-
Huh?
-
You said you build this house, Preacher, this big mansion
-
you build it for ministry. Can we understand do we
-
have a key? Do we have a key?
-
Do we have a key to our house?
-
We look like them, but we should be looking like
-
him because he set us apart to look like him
-
and for him. Ay man, we are a peculiar people.
-
So don't get this improperly coase folk looking at you like,
-
come on, you know you.
-
Can do that. You do that. He's strange. I'm stranger.
-
I'm strange to you because you don't know him.
-
That's why you calling me stranger, because you don't know him.
-
You don't even recognize him.
-
We are kill your people.
-
So number fret over being ah because we've been chosen
-
to change.
-
We are in the world. Hey man, we are in
-
the world, but not the woman. That's the twisted part
-
we believe in because we're in the world with other worlds.
-
No, we're not. We live in a strange place, as
-
it says that he Brew with this a strange place.
-
This ain't our home. The Bible said, we are aliens
-
in a strange place looking for a home.
-
Lady. That's what the Bible said.
-
That's why we're strange looking at them. But the aliens
-
look strange. You see all the pictures of ALUs and
-
drew me only know what they looked like. They just
-
drew something that didn't look at human. Were strange. We're
-
supposed to be strange. We're not supposed to be looking
-
like that. You ever noticed that? They even what was that?
-
What was what was that? Aighty?
-
His name?
-
He could sing out like that, e t You noticed?
-
You noticed he was strange, and see the world. They can't.
-
They can only hang around their own They can't make it.
-
They should be able to make it hanging around you.
-
So they dressed up et and put clothes on it
-
so he can look more like them.
-
They dressed him up, put a wig on it.
-
Wanted them to look more human because he was peculiar looking.
-
That's how he was supposed to look at it. He
-
was supposed to look peculiar, strange because we're in the world,
-
but we're not of the world. You see, when you
-
got the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit is what helps
-
us to be obedient to God's word and to God's lifestyle.
-
The Holy Spirit helps us to be obedient. He's a helper,
-
he's a comforter. Hey man he's a mind changer.
-
He is the mind of God, the spirit of God.
-
He comes to help us change into the image and
-
likeness of our Father. Hey man.
-
He helps us to look like we'll not come this world,
-
but we're in this world.
-
Amen, and understanding, because in the world, but not of
-
the world.
-
Our Father recognized we're in the world. So he knews
-
what we need when we're in the world. And man,
-
and so the Holy Spirit helps us to be obedient
-
to God.
-
He reminds us. The Holy Spirit is a reminder.
-
But he can't remind you of something you don't never have,
-
never known.
-
Again, I say it again, I said one more time.
-
I might say it two more time, but I'm gonna
-
say it again.
-
Rather that God gave men the mind to make a
-
computer and put a.
-
Memory in it, so.
-
That you can push buttons and bring up from the
-
memory what you put in it.
-
I said, you put in it. So if you don't
-
read the word of God and put this in memory,
-
what can't he bring up?
-
He can't puss the butler and bring up all the
-
blessings and all the promises of yesterday. May put let me,
-
let me get no reconcilement that's what's gonna happen. No
-
the sound, but if you put it in there, it's
-
gonna pop up. He comes to remind us that we
-
belong to God. So when you have to acting the food,
-
if the holding goes, gonna kick in and say remember
-
who you are.
-
Now, remember who you are, don't let them see see
-
see see see.
-
They wanted to take Jesus into Jerusalem at a particular time,
-
but Jesus said, not at this time.
-
So when they want to walk you up in the club,
-
you're not at this time. When they when they want
-
to walk you up in the party, not at this time.
-
Hey man, some man, when.
-
They want to invite you over somebody's house that you
-
know what they do.
-
Not at this time because I know if and then
-
they smoking.
-
Their weed and drinking on the regular, we're just going
-
to watch the softball game, not that this time. Hm.
-
We'll come on to the family, you you man, we're
-
gonna have a good time, get full of moments. Not
-
at this time. So the Holy Spirit reminds us that
-
we belong to God.
-
And the fact that it reminds us that we belong
-
to God, it reminds us we have children back on
-
the Holy Spirit can change and transform us. You see,
-
you should be able to see and to you should
-
be able to see the change in you, and so
-
should others see that change. But most of all, it
-
might elude you. But others should be able to see
-
that change. See, you may not lose them because they
-
always watch it anyway, but it might have lose you,
-
but it may not have lose them because they always watch.
-
So you are to be able to see the change,
-
and others also your to be able to see that change.
-
But what kind of change? Let's let's let's let's do
-
a change. Let's do a change. Chick. Here, let's do
-
a change.
-
Chit.
-
This is like chicks, I said, it's a mirror message.
-
So you're looking in the mirror and you're looking to
-
see the change. So we're gonna do a change.
-
Check. Do you allow the Holy Spirit to change? You
-
were doing the change chick church?
-
Do you allow the Holy Spirit? I said, do you allow?
-
I can't do it?
-
Do you allow? So you have to be able to
-
be a willing veshel for God. You have the will
-
to do whatever you choose to do. But do you
-
willingly allow the Holy Spirit to change?
-
You? Do you allow the Holy Spirit to change, not
-
just to change your thoughts? Do you allow to change
-
your actions your words?
-
Allow your words? Do you make choices? We'll say this
-
is slow based on what you want.
-
Rather than what you know God expects of you. Do
-
you allow God some control? Are full control of your life?
-
Because in today's like, most folks in the body are
-
only allowing some control.
-
That's all. They allowed, some control.
-
That's why they still celebrate these paying holiday because they're
-
only giving them some control.
-
Are you with me?
-
That's why they still believe that they can go where
-
they want to go, be with who they want to
-
be with, hang out who they want to hang out with,
-
because they.
-
Only allowing some control, not all control.
-
That's why they believe it can be a homosexual because
-
of some control, but not all control. Are you hearing?
-
Do you allow God some control? Our full control of
-
your life? Now?
-
This will help you when the Holy Spirit present in us,
-
when the Holy Spirit is president us.
-
Rather, this will help us. It's there to change us
-
if we willingly allow him to work on us.
-
He is not gonna just pop upon you and just
-
start pulling things apart and putting things in.
-
You have to allow the change to come. Amen.
-
And when the spirit is present in us, I said,
-
when it's present in us, it's there to change us.
-
If there's no change, he must not be president in
-
you are in us.
-
And when he's present us, there's gonna be a change
-
in us, and there's gonna be an empowering us to live.
-
Life that can be bringing on and.
-
Glory to our Lord and savior Jesus Christ, our God. Well,
-
so I guess the question is can anybody join me
-
in saying, Father, I want the holiest period to transform
-
you from the inside out, because that's what we do.
-
He works inside out because see what's on the inside
-
coming down. Hey man, he works inside out because lastly,
-
we focus on God, the cleansing you, God Son, cleansing you.
-
Hmm.
-
Peter, he tells us the text that we have been
-
set apart by our obedience to God.
-
We have been cleansed by the blood of Jesus. Let
-
me know you all this.
-
Peter is letting us knows that this years is a
-
continuous obedience.
-
Not when we want presents from God, gifts, blessings.
-
Right now, Lord, people say that I'm gonna right now God,
-
you just gonna I'm gonna ask right blessing that time.
-
Right there you go, Lord, and you just bless me
-
with that.
-
Man, I'm gonna direct by you all that woe. Some
-
people even say, Lord, he didn't get this outfit.
-
I word to your globy. I wear this outfit to
-
your glory, though yes I will.
-
He was continuous OBEs, Oh, Continuous obedience comes with the
-
Holy Spirit being in us by the Son of God
-
cleansing us. Hey Man, cleansing us by the blood of Jesus,
-
that his own blood.
-
And when he does that, this should.
-
Be a continuous holiness about our lives, which causes us
-
to be continually, continually, continually obeid towards God, living my
-
lives as children of God and disciples of Jesus Christ.
-
Casual convenient Christians walking is not obi to God. Casually conveniently.
-
Trying to be a Christian walking in that is not
-
obedience to God as mean.
-
That means, rather, when you feel like you.
-
Want to do it, it's convenient for you right now
-
because you want folks to look at you a certain way,
-
and convenience is what happens in the House of God
-
every time the doors are open I'm dressed up up
-
in the House of God from head to toe as
-
a convenient Christian because today's Sunday, I'm right.
-
Up in Hell.
-
They gonna see my holdiness, they see my holiness. Then
-
when you I'm not gonna even give you that much Christian.
-
When the pastor doesn't been addiction, it says, hey man,
-
you cut up right then, because it.
-
Was just convenient. It's just a convenient one.
-
When you get around on the folks, we ain't trying
-
to ek hold it. It's convenient. The Holy One is convenient.
-
You want to be like them because you don't want
-
them to be. You don't want to be talked about it.
-
You don't want to be ostracized. But you already ostracized
-
the ones that He's chosen. You've been ostracized. You've been
-
selling apart for His purpose. You've already been atracid. You
-
just don't realize it yet. You cannot be a casual,
-
convenient Christian because casual convenient Christians do not walk in
-
total beings God. They do not and they will not
-
see eternal It is good form. It's a bad form too.
-
I think we know what that means. Because God wants
-
us to be faithful. You notice the word faith is
-
in faithful. He wants us to be faith full, full
-
of faith. He wants us to be four. Let's turn
-
around full of faith. Let's put the full all in.
-
So when you full of faith, you faith uh. And
-
when you faith, so you a bed to God. And
-
when you're being to God, you remember in your stressful
-
times whose you are.
-
When somebody is dis cursing.
-
You up side you remember the Holy Spirit will remind
-
you who you are.
-
He wants us to.
-
Be faithful and faith lists and not faithless. Brother, he
-
wants us to be faithful and not Faithulits a whole
-
lot of us want to be faith when it's convenient,
-
but God wants us to.
-
Be faithful all the time. Let me tell you something.
-
If you if you take convenience and being faithful, guess
-
what you really just faithless. There is no faithful, your
-
faithless because faithful is a requirement all the time with God.
-
See people talking about folks straggling a fence. That's impossible.
-
We've been had these sayings for decades and don't really understand.
-
You can't strive on fence you even with God.
-
Here are you not.
-
You can't here God on Sunday and not with him
-
on Monday through Saturday. And you and you're thanking with
-
him on Sunday, you're not. You're the same as money
-
through Saturday because you're all in a convenient state on Sunday.
-
And that's not fool And God wants you faith full
-
full faith. Hey man, So I'm a close with this.
-
Since God the Father has chosen you and the Holy
-
Spirit has changed you.
-
You remember I told you one, two three, God the Father,
-
the Holy Spirit, God the Son. And the first thing
-
I told you was since God the Father first choose you,
-
and the Holy Spirit has changed you, and God the
-
Son has cleansed you all.
-
Y'all with me.
-
Now, since all that has happened, you can hear God
-
the Father call me you. He wants to use us.
-
He wants to use ups. Can y'all walk with me
-
right here? I want everybody say you me, Lord, Say
-

-

-
mad and upset and he gave it to you grunting it,
-
