-
rub the sweetical morning at six thirty that actually end the verse and we're becoming
-
here in the TUC studio plant in Texas. But there's it right now.
-
We're gonna go to the BBC as to city come. I'm up over in
-
the UK lets yound that patress versus Keen of God, and you hope to
-
God a chance that you're doing that we care about the right give a few

-
guys forever. I want to do it to what God has to say about
-
Keen. F gonna be thank you. I'm be blessed for this opportunity to
-
come from a draw. We has to look over this word as I go
-
for I've gotta actually tested mouth to this priest and usual I declared the word
-
fids got let it, not being myself but to the power the most high
-
God, we would continue to believe it declared to created everything You've given us.
-
This comfrom the Kingdom God helped me to be your can do it on
-
this morning as I bring forth a word to your people. Give me strength,
-
giving wisdom, give me dollars, give me direction, give me the
-
understand I need of our God. As I writ about these particular scriptures,
-
and I felt through your Holy where are trying to got just the heartedness Man
-
of God. We'll look oldmans of the parts and person of a powerful name.
-
I pray, Lord, Amen, let's look over the look of Proverbs.
-
I'm gonna talking about the true God for a sense of the basic scripture
-
you're here. I'm gonna trying to alige some things up according to the King
-
of God, and that you're going to get to understanding what we're gonna be
-
speaking about here. That's the true Man of the heart. The Moon of
-
God declines to cruize. According to Proverbs, chapter sixteen of verse one,
-
he said, the preparation of the heart in man in the answer of the
-
tongue is from the Lord. The preparation of the heart in man in the
-
answer of the tongue is from the Lord. In all your ways of a
-
man are clear. Make sure we get that understood. All the ways of
-
a man is cluing his own eyes. Mostiple heard the scriptural lead not to
-
your own understanding, but not It's God in all his ways, most of
-
hearts the way it seems right to a man. But the end can be
-
his death. Once again in at sixteen provers sixteen to two, all the
-
ways of a man are clear or clean in its own eyes, but the
-
Lord weighs the spirit. Commit your works unto the Lord, and that thoughts
-
should be established mind perception. Quoting up to the Philippians elipt chapter two.
-
Let's again it says over here in Philip chapter two, in that particular area
-
of the second chapter, in that first verse, who say, if there
-
be any consolation in Christ, Let's understand what we're saying about having an establishment
-
from the heart, having a mind of Christ. Let's understand it takes time
-
to spend re quests the constant of a as we talk about the Word of
-
God. Open the matter sixty three, how we are to seek you for
-
us the Kingdom of God and all his righteousness. That means we established better
-
things that we receive in our hearts as we meditate on it Joshua one and
-
eight. Philippin says, once again, if there be any consolation in Christ,
-
if there have any comfort of love, if there be any fellowship of
-
spirit, if there any bowels or mirale coles ful fear, Ye, whose
-
joy, my joy? If you're being like man and having the same mind,
-
the same love, being a one accord in one mind. Because I
-
go to the area of the Proverbs, let's again the fronts again. How
-
God declares, according to Proverbs chapter sixteen, that all the ways of a
-
man are klean in his own eyes. But the Lord weighs the spirit.
-
So Paul comes back and speaks this in the Olympians about how we should counsel
-
with God. Even if you go back to the parlous chapter sixteen munic at
-
a verse one, he said, counsel with God prepares your heart, even
-
though you might want to say something physically with your own some tongue. But
-
the spiritual Lord announces what he wants to announce, because you become a conduit
-
for him. Paul goes on and speaks on the Olympians in that particular area
-
in that third verse in two and three, he said, letting be done,
-
let nothing be done, the strap of balgrave, but lawlessness of mind,
-
that each esteem others better than themselves. What he says in the fourth
-
verse, look not that every man look like every man on its own things.
-
And this is a strong verse about how it's not about your possessions and
-
what you have. A lot of people bragging doss. I'm awa to have
-
the Lord's blessed me, the Lord this and that the other. But this
-
particular scripture in the fourth verse flippers two really brings into fluition. John thirteen
-
thirty four and thirty five loved them as I've loved you. About this.
-
They may know when you love your brother and sister, you look more off
-
of them than you have what you have. And there was a person who
-
you see is not struggling, the pressionist, going to hard times. You
-
just don't walk past them like a beg on the street. We see this
-
in the story over in the Kings. I believe it's in Kings when the
-
men who sat there at the beautiful gate, and at the beautiful gate,
-
he said that he bade arms, But I don't think it was in Kings.
-
But he bade the arms and as he said at the gate, there
-
are people passed by, and he looked as if he was going to receive
-
or something you know, from people you know, and through the spirit God
-
had dealt with Peter John on the process of our spiritual understanding about the way
-
he should see things, not just from the monetarial point of view, but
-
according to what God really have already is still for him, you know.
-
So we we we sometimes find ourselves being a little braggadocies braggadocious about what we
-
have, you know. And sometimes we find ourselves feeling that, Okay,
-
God gave me this, so I'm a little bit better than everybody else,
-
I'm gonna blessing everybody else, you know. But it's it's not that's not
-
the case. God wants you to be able to have things the such a
-
way that you can really help someone else, and they actually monetary on these
-
or struggles. So when you find yourself looking at another individual situation that you
-
feel you're more blessed than they best, you're gonna blessed him, but there
-
have been blessed it for its monetorial things. God doesn't want you to have
-
that kind of attitude about it into it he wants to help John. And
-
when you look at the situation we talked about before, and I don't want
-
to bring this to a point, you know, bringing the kind of argument
-
of telling everybody, hey, look, you know, because you have a
-
lot of God's not gonna bless you know. It's it's it's the brag of
-
doucious part of it. It's the it's a prince who brags about it,
-
shows off the things that they have, as if you know, nobody else
-
is able to get anything. I have anything. This man there's at the
-
beautiful gate in the Book of Acts. I believe it wasn't King the Book
-
of Acts. And you look at the Book of Acts and you see how
-
that man I think it's Acts, chapter three, and how he's set there
-
and Peter John came to him at course of the evening some saves about you
-
know, a lot of o'clock that morning, three o'clock the morning, or
-
not three o'clock the morney, three o'clock that afternoon, one o'clock could be.
-
But it's not so much about the time. It's about what took place.
-
And what took place was the transformation in the man's heart that they looked
-
upon him has been a barrier, but they felt like what he needed was
-
a word from the Lord. The Lord tells me and you, I will
-
supply all your needs according to my riches and glory. This is what God
-
tells us. So we understand the word of God in problem of chapter sixteen
-
about the preparation. Not only the heart he prepares the mind. God leads
-
you into positions and places where you receive your blessings. So when you receive
-
your blessings, the word of God tells you the joy that you have based
-
them a part of speaking in the bookup of Olympians. By having the same
-
mind, the same love, you should use that towards everybody to make This
-
is why we're looking down thirteen thirty four. Loved them as I loved you.
-
About this they may know. But he comes down in the Olympians in
-
chapter two. In that second verse he said, let nothing be done to
-
strife in Bulgary, but in lordliness of mind that comes back to the mind,
-
said the preparation not only harbor the mind that each esteem others better than
-
themselves. Lucas says in the fourth verse, look not only on your own
-
things, but every man also on his things or the things of others.
-
It says that in the fourth verse, and not every man looking his own
-
things, but every man also on the things of others. Me you've also
-
look out for your brother and sister as a man of woman God. And
-
you're not supposed to be strifing and feeling you know how sometimes to see people
-
when you're jealousy. No no, no, no no no. Everybody got
-
to go to one gate. You're walking. Crimes are no different about walking
-
quests. Every available thing you have with the blessings available to you, next
-
available to me. Now my job is to help you to get to that
-
point. Has been a minister of the gospel in a positive walk in an
-
opposition, I alist would be trying to help you show you how to get
-
that, not to show off the stuff that I have. My job is
-
to make sure you give better than I live, because what God has given
-
me to give you the information and answer to the combinations that you need,
-
and the combination and Sunday before you nothing walking up right over and all the
-
commands, all the statutes and all the precepts that should would have got to
-
tell somebody because there's nothing he would hold from it. When a man waits,
-
please, is done your desires and everything else is in place for you.
-
But when it comes over to the book of John, he ties in
-
these particular scriptures and to use it as a vuying. There's a twisting term.
-
We talk about the trendell or a buying hack rolls up the side of
-
the stick and supports the weight of the grape, but won't fall to the
-
round for insects and things won't get a hold of it. And it's something
-
about the leafs that's under the trendell vine that attracts the insects rather than attract
-
them to the fruit. So God's word keeps the enemy away from you.
-
The enemy is designed to dissolve you, so you won't grow as a healthy
-
fruit that you need to grow ass So water God uses in the scripture and
-
hand chapter fifteen. But he's a two line. His father is a husbandman.
-
Just as you go out and trim the bushes on your yard, as
-
they grow, you keep them in position where they won't get out of line,
-
and make sure they still look beautiful. And it's what the word of
-
God does for you. He said, every branch, they're bad, not
-
the fruit. He takes away, and every branch they're bad fruits. He
-
prune. God wants to plune you me, and he wants you to grow.
-
Sometimes you see a child growing. They go out of shoes, and
-
they go out of clothes, They go out stuff, you know, and
-
they hand it down to somebody that can still use it. That's stuff them
-
been pruned off, so when somebody can come on they can use it.
-
Also, it's a similar to the point of understanding what you have. When
-
you have it, take care of it. So you have it. You
-
can't wear the us anymore. You can give somebody else they can use it.
-
And that's the same step the word of God. As you gain more
-
understanding, the wisdom about the Word of God used to leave town for somebody
-
else to get the understanding. But they can continue to grow in the steps
-
on what you grow. Look at the word of God and look at it
-
very closely. Every branch in me then bear not food. He takes away,
-
and every branch that barrier foot he proves, and it may bring forth
-
more fruit. And now you are clean through the word which I've spoken unto
-
you. The world cleanses you, the world sanctifies you, The world blesses
-
you. It's the word of salvation that you speak out of your mouth,
-
goes to the world of God. Here, just take a good step right
-
here, go to the book of some or open the pro Roman. I'm
-
sorry, so go to God Romans and look at this in the book of
-
Romans. Lets look at some things. To the Book of Romans and shook
-
us something here. Who don't power a point of teaching here, and let's
-
look at the Book of Romans. And I want to share so many Book
-
of Romans about how the world of God it's not clear because of what the
-
pastor says or what the leaders or anybody says. Now they help me and
-
show you what you need to really find out thing to sell because the word
-
of God makes it very clear. In Romans. You go to Romans chapter
-
ten to get the particular eighth. First Nicola said, or what saith the
-
word of God's nat in our mouths. This is Romans chapter ten and eight.
-
God wants you to make the confession about your salvation with your own mouths.
-
I can give it to you, but it's up to you to go
-
and pronounce it and understanding to read it dissected. You're not going to do
-
and buying something you want do you got to go to to do. Open
-
up, But the direction is prepared and either it. You got something God
-
wants to hear. What's out of your mouths? Even though I give it
-
to you, I'm giving you the groceries. You got to go home and
-
unarrival the groceries take him a loose put him away for the proper time to
-
use them. I mean, you have to read the word of God.
-
Whenever the pastor the positive the preacher gives you. The world is up to
-
you to go and read it and steady it. Not just taking it.
-
Just throw them the shelf. You're gonna use it to the rest of the
-
week. Read what he's telling you, study and find out what he's talking
-
about. But what say out the water God is not it's a Roman's ten,
-
ain't nine? What say that the water God is not? Hive in
-
that mouth to the heart the word of faithful to we preach. If I
-
confess with it, but my mouth the Lord Jesus Christ, and believe in
-
thy heart that God has raised him from her dead. Thy shall be what
-
saved. Now he talks about the process of the heart. We talked over
-
the Book of Progress about the preparation of heart. Your heart is pared to
-
believe when you come into salvation or come to that ardumance that's speaking, you're
-
making a commitment of verbal commitment. With that verbal commitment, you want to
-
act on that verbal commitment by with that robble, but has an action to
-
it. For the harder man believe of the rightsousness and with the mouth of
-
confessions made unto salvation. For the scriptures say, whoever believeth on him should
-
not be ashamed. It doesn't matter where your life is right now, where
-
you're going to challenge, just change his events ups and downs, It doesn't
-
matter. God is willing to make you a part of the mind and prone
-
those things off you to try to hold you back in life habits or whatever
-
may have been, and try to make you feel that you're unable or you
-
don't have what it takes a lot of people look at you and that you
-
ain't able to take the overthrow from the kingdom and God that thinks it,
-
because then the leader they didn't one got the right to the kingdom of God.
-
Now everybody's got the right to the drum. Everybody. He's got a
-
right to come into the kingdom. Now the Bible declares acording to Romans chapter
-
You look at Romans, you look at Romans chapter nine, he said,
-
he said, But if I confess with our own models, Jesus Christ and
-
I should believe in our own heart and God's read them read he said,
-
I shall be saved. Now that's a confession from me. It's not based
-
on what I'm saying. That just saved. It's because you read it,
-
and now you know how to act on it, and you know the thing
-
you have to do to prepare yourself to be to receive that what Christ has
-
a sofia. Look at this right here, Look at this raster. Look
-
at John chapter fifteen, and look at that particularly sick verse. If a
-
man abuys in me, if what man buys in me, he is cash
-
forward as a branch and a withered. Look here. If what man abids
-
should be not in me, he's careful as a breath and withered. And
-
a man gathered them and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
-
Things in your life need to be burned off, But you need to
-
make sure you don't get burned. You don't burn up the good things.
-
Have you got good aptibutes to you. I got good things in me,
-
You got good things in you. God wants the good part of you.
-
But he wants you to burn up the old stuff that's called you to stay
-
away from him. He wants you to bide in him, to be with
-
him. So you go back to the fourth verse. He tells you.
-
In the fourth verse, he said, by to me and I in you,
-
as the branch cannot bear food except except it abides in the fine goes
-
back to the process of the warning of the vinin that that wraps around that
-
particular step stick a branch is called a trendell, and it holds that branch
-
up and that that fruit grows. It keeps it off the ground from insects
-
and anything like that. And then the leaf is the magical point about the
-
van because that leaf got some kind of magic. It gots a magical chemical
-
and that attracts the bug away from the food, but attracts it to that
-
particular leaf. And this is amazing when you think about the process of divine.
-
Who Jesus brings particular word about, He is a true line. When
-
you become a part of him, every negative thing in your life, every
-
part of your life. It seems to be out of order, grow out
-
of control. Crisis that is helping. They're bringing back into control. And
-
the woman got we it's a thirty minute show, and were just about almost
-
into what we want to do on a get a little bit more into this
-
right quick. I'm going to bite him this this little bit more and get
-
you some more understanding right here, He sends over him the seventh verse in
-
Time, chapter of fifteen to seven. If you'll buy it in me,
-
the kid, what else? If you're in God, the world abides in
-
you. Remember he said the word or makes you clean? The Word,
-
not me as a pastor, as apostles, the proper doctor. What everything
-
to call? It's the word of God. Once you confess the word of
-
God, and you're studying the Word of God, and you believe in the
-
Word of God, you start understanding what it says. It sounds. Who
-
are like walking up right and declaring the Word of God, decreeing the word
-
of God, speaking those things based who it says over the Book of Proverbs,
-
the preparation of the heart. You're a man or woman. But now
-
the answer comes out of the amounts through God. And then he weighs your
-
spirit in sixteen and two Proverbs six and in two. And when he does,
-
he establish you as you commit these the works. So you're doing based
-
on Proverbs sixteen and three. You commit your works unto who not mean unto
-
the Lord, that they may be established. So now you become a full
-
fledged Christian abiding in Christ. As He continue to grows you more and more
-
each and every day, in every minute. He says on the eighth birds
-
hearing my words, my Father glorified that you may bear much food. So
-
shill ye be my disciple. You become more. That's a disciple to work
-
of the kingdom. God is making disciples. Here in is my word.
-
Here in is my father's glorified. When your grandified the Father, you're growified
-
to be a boy one minister in the world. Speaking that thing, you
-
become a disciple. This is why he said in the book Up Matthews,
-
go out to all the world and proclaim the gospel. We're to speak the
-
world of God to those who out there in the laws. And I also
-
are not found that way and still dealing with circumstances and issues, especially this
-
day of time. Man, what we've got. It can get pretty rough
-
with a lot of people. But but we know God's playing. You know
-
I don't playing for his lit life is great than what we can see.
-
So heading up, we think God y'all be able to us here in this
-
morning. Don't forget to get back with me in six six study this morning,
-
and we got to go to our early bird word show for those who
-
