Reverend Doctor Joseph Being, Head Pastor of Harvest Chapel International Commercy.
-
And now to today's message.
-
Go to are One's eve before we take our seats.
-
Let's go.
-
Let's book of the Law, shall or depart out of
-
my mouth, that I shall meditate in it.
-
To day right that I may observe to do according
-
to all that is written in it.
-
Well, then I will make.
-
My way prospers, and then I am half of success
-
a man.
-
God bless you. Why don't you take your seats on?
-
Continue with her this courses how best we can bring
-
order into our conversations.
-
Amen, let's go to James James Chapter three, best two
-
and James is Jesus is genia brother. James is apostle
-
James one who wrote this, like Jesus is genial brother.
-
Say mother, But when Jesus was alive, he wasn't one
-
of his disciples because they even doubted him until he
-
rose again and then he became part of the disciple.
-
Now listen to him talk about the town. There's two
-
let's pick it from verse two. He say, for we
-
all stumble in many ways. We all turn to someoneyre
-
and say we all we all? You just say we
-
are you see, we have to admit that there's a problem.
-
There is a problem with us. You, yeah, everybody. And
-
Pastor said this. I didn't like. We saw all of us,
-
all of us, And in our conversation we got accused
-
because sometimes let me let me past that pastor will rebuke.
-
Oh why the pastor rebuked me? You know past that
-
it's my my story. That pastor used it. We used
-
living people's stories. Say amen, we can't use that people's story.
-
So then that I don't have my own story. Then
-
I borrow from Amanda from one of the conversations is
-
me having with me there I borrow from there? Amen,
-
and then go want to me if I mentioned that,
-
Oh it was Amanda, It's ah no, I'm confiding you again.
-
Hell do he? So we all stumble in many ways,
-
and even anyone does not stumble in what he says.
-
He's a perfect man. But we know there's no one
-
that is perfect. We are all asked. Fine, Jesus said,
-
be perfect, for I am perfect. Its the same. So
-
you see the standards that God has for you and
-
I are children of God. It is nothing short of
-
his email or nature. He said, I am holy, be
-
he only I am perfect? Be he perfect. But Jensy
-
is saying as that, look you and I is talking
-
to the church. There's a problem in church. Why because
-
we are ongoing repair work. So all that in his
-
wants is to cooperate with only spirit. And that's why
-
I said, and begin, Look what we are doing is
-
a spiritual our work. We have not gothered or God
-
has not brought us together. We are not like any
-
other organization. No. Why the difference is the presence of
-
God Almighty in our mess, in our hearts, and in
-
our mess. It's a spiritu our organization. Hallelujah. Amen, that's
-
the difference. Anyone does not stumbling what he sees. He's
-
a perfect man, able also to do or bridle his
-
own body. Hallelujah. He may. Now, let's look at three.
-
He says, what we have been able to do? Man?
-
He said, indeed, we put bits in horse's mouths that
-
they may obey us, and we tend their whole body
-
around more or less. If you look at it very well,
-
he said, indeed, we put bits in horse's mouths that
-
they may obey more. It's talking about the ability or
-
the ingenuity of human beings to be able to subdue everything.
-
And God gave us that power in Genesis one. That's
-
twenty six, twenty seven, twenty eight during the creation story. Amen,
-
he said, let us create man what in our image
-
and in our likeness, and then let us put him
-
in charge to supperintend the rest of the creation. And
-
when he was blessing other men, even in verse twenty
-
eighties that work increase, multiply, subdual. There So it is
-
no doubt that we have been able to accomplish a
-
lot of things, subdue a lot of things. We can
-
cause the horse to match, during match Independence Days and Paris,
-
and do all kinds of things by using our God
-
giving if you like, intelligence and power to subdue. Amen.
-
And by extension, James is trying to point out that
-
the tongue can equally what be turged. You can't tell
-
your tongue. You can't change the way you talk. God
-
is not going to do it for you. You have
-
to do it. Amen. He has brought in the resources
-
and they are all on site by the presence of
-
the Holy Spirit. It brings every resource that we need
-
to put off the old man and to put on
-
the new man. And he expects you to do it. Amen.
-
Change the way you talk to your husband, change the
-
way you talk to your children, tange the way you
-
talk to your parents, change the way you talk to
-
your boss. Hallelujah. Amen. And hop that club promos for God.
-
Then let's give her God another hour because I believe
-
it is God that is speaking to us. Hallelujah. Amen.
-
We are image bearers of God. And wherever are we
-
going to say is that lays your speech with soul?
-
Let him be fragrant. Hallelujah Amen. The Holy Spirit he
-
can achieve very little in us if we don't allow
-
him to read in our tongues. That's what he said.
-
He said, we've been able to do it for the horses,
-
can't we just paused and do it for ourselves and
-
pulling our tongue, pulling our thoughts, pulling our words. Helen Louiah,
-
I mean that's how I learn. That's how I learn.
-
When I gave my life to Jesus Christ and everything,
-
then I, as we've always said it, you know where
-
you are going on To get there, you start spiritual journalist.
-
Your quiet time, God will teach you things and God
-
wants you to take notes. Amen, have a spiritual agennal. Amen.
-
These days you can't use your book that's all your food,
-
the notes column document or if you have the paper
-
Bible or even the highlights, all of them, all even
-
the electronics, they have pages for notes and things. When
-
the Holy Spirit is teaching you that we are students,
-
students the School of the Spirit. We are students. There
-
documented what is saying and then you learn it's a
-
learning thing. It's not automatic. Hallne lujah. So you start
-
journaling the thing that God is teaching you and then
-
you do them. It's as simple as that. So as
-
you are doing it and all those things, you realize that, hey,
-
maybe in those days it was if you like, I
-
think maybe when he was talking. This day, you are,
-
you are, you are typing, you're you're writing the texts,
-
you're responding to a text major that what's that message?
-
And then you're doing you're doing it, and then you
-
put some words and then immediately your heart is arrested.
-
Change it would rather fun conflict. It's a blessard and
-
the peace make it. But they shall be the sons
-
of God. Then he said, no, legally, this one. It
-
won't bite him, it won't cut him a hair. I
-
need to let her put her in her place. She
-
needs to know that. But you know, you know the
-
power behind the worst, and you know that just changing
-
just one word, doing that sentence will bring the whole
-
tempo of the conversation down. That is raining, He said,
-
even the horses we have been able to do that.
-
And the Holy Spirit will help you do that, and
-
you have to The only spirit is say, okay, Holy Spirit,
-
if you don't want me to use the word, then
-
by the time I open my eyes, let the word
-
vanny from my text. It won't vanish or when I
-
press it, it shouldn't go the empty m. People should
-
block it and say that your message has not been delivered.
-
It won't go. Amen. Now look at verse four. Is
-
I look at the ships also? They are so large
-
and are driven by strong wings. They are guided by
-
a very small Rather wherever the will of the pilot direct,
-
the will of the pilot directs the will. God has
-
given us a will that he is not going to subvert. Amen.
-
God doesn't want us to be zombies. He made us
-
intelligent beings. He gave us over two billion brain cells
-
so he can reason, so he can dialogue with that.
-
That is where conversations comes in. Conversations are so crucial.
-
Without conversation, there will be no community. Amen, there will
-
be no interaction. But God created this world so we
-
could interact with him number one and number two with
-
our fellow men. God's chart to add and wants to
-
increase multiply without that spirit of rebellion seeping a Just
-
imagine colonies of men all over. God's a big universe.
-
We're all living in peace, which is indeed what he
-
says he has promised he will do in the new
-
having an Earth project where there will be no more saying,
-
no more pain, no more sorrow, no more parallel. Amen.
-
Why those who have qualified, he said, He will give
-
us a good heart. And that good heart, say that
-
will not be there. Nothing can change the heart so
-
that the original blueprint of creation won't come to pass.
-
But for now the damage is substantial, and I require
-
you to help so we can fix you. So in
-
all the admonitions to the Colossian check he said the
-
same thing today. Efficient he said, Look, guys, you need
-
to put off, put it off, put off the old man,
-
and put on the new man, which is made just
-
like God. Amen. So it said, Look at the sheets.
-
Although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds,
-
they are tended by a very small rader. Wherever the
-
pilot decides the pilot desires. There can't be anything like
-
slip off tone. Yes, one slip of tone, But the
-
next time, hey, you order your tongue to hold the tongue.
-
That's what he's saying. And the power, the power, the.
-
Holy Spirit, the power and the spirit will give you
-
the courage to do that.
-
You say, sometimes we do all this because we don't
-
want to lose lose faith. The believer or the bonn again,
-
the truly see a bonne again person. You have no reputation.
-
If you don't get this thing right, you're not going
-
to get fired with God. You want to work with
-
God with your reputation? No, he said, look at me.
-
He was prepared to come down and have his reputation damage.
-
What didn't they call him? Why didn't they call him? Amen?
-
They gave him all kinds of names, and it was
-
yes or not true. But he never protested. And he
-
said that the serbants cannot be greater than the Master
-
if they insult And he said, they will insult you.
-
If they damn made my reputation, they'll damnate your reputation.
-
What your what kind of reputation is that that you
-
are clinging soul? Halen Loujah? Amen? So and so it's
-
it's it's these are the basic principles of the Christian life.
-
You don't have a reputation, Amen. Amen, we are the
-
criminals that he died for us. No, you're a criminal.
-
We are a criminal towards the reputation that you that
-
is already damaged. So when they crucify you by giving
-
all you say, it's true, but make sure it's not
-
true that all as for the rumors and things, and
-
and I mean taking you from granted, that is the
-
lot of all believers, say amen to that. That's five.
-
It's also the tongue is a small member, yet it
-
boasts of great things. How great a forest is set
-
ablaze by such a small fire. So James is warning
-
us yet not to the estimate the effects of our
-
words or conversations. Wars has been sparked by a few
-
careless or selfish words in the whole, in the community,
-
on the global state, wor's what's boom? And yes, that
-
always tells you that there's a certain spirit that is
-
behind if you understand the nature of the cosmic world
-
that God has told us is ongoing between the Kingdom
-
of God and then the kingdom of darkness and for you,
-
and now he says he has Satans and he has
-
translated us out of Satan's domain of darkness into the
-
kingdom of his beloved Son, where it is light. And
-
that is why God wants us to rain in and
-
bring order to our conversations. We want to showcase the
-
nature of God. The fruit of the Holy spits all
-
of our peace Amen. So the opposite was just a
-
few peaceful words. It will brook thoughtful. A few thoughtful
-
words brings up our peace, isn't it. Hallelujah? Amen. So
-
conversations are great in gold, in society and communities together, hallnelujah.
-
And I believe that's what God has got the check
-
together to be doing, and we just need to be
-
a bit more careful and intentional in doing it so
-
we can defeat the devil. The last place where there
-
should be quious and fights and things is in check.
-
Say amen. But sometimes what we see in our congregations amen,
-
fire for fire and then yeah, I first you hear
-
some of the things and then it's like ah for me.
-
That's why we always talk about this bonne against you.
-
It's not your photo that that that that that the
-
foundation is wrong. You don't even know where we are going.
-
And that's why sometimes we don't want to preach, preach,
-
you know, sweet latable messages and get people here that
-
the destination is in heaven and God has felt out
-
clearly in this way where we are going. And then
-
the qualifications and conditions not are needed to get Amen, hallelujah.
-
And the Bible is so so replete with so much
-
warnings that sometimes they are red check not d chet bo.
-
I don't understand why you think that that one is
-
not it's not applicable, but binding and losing is applicable.
-
That's why we are binding and we are losing. Nothing
-
is happening. You still go to bed and you can't sleep,
-
tormented day and night, all kinds of dreams. Look the
-
Holy Spirit that mea have come to know, not the
-
apostles talk about. He is a tough customer. They won't
-
allow you to be fighting all over the place. The
-
Holy Spirit will give you a license. Else when you
-
come here, I'll also be fighting. Hallelujah. He won't give
-
you that license at all. You will lose your piece.
-
You look you when you sleep, you sleep one hour
-
while there you wake you up, and then you first
-
and sleep again. Then the dream and then the nightmare
-
will come. And you know when you wake up from
-
the dream, you know that is because of this thing.
-
H What I said to that brother, what I said
-
to that sister, What I said, Then you will tell
-
you you aid, you apologize, call that person you have
-
acquire with somebody, These things that when you come to
-
pray and you. He reminds you, Sonta. You say you
-
here will remind you. You will not forget it. And
-
he said, call that person. Call you want peace, Yes, call,
-
just be gracious with the words. I'm sorry. I add blessed,
-
and the peacemakers for this shall be called the sons
-
of God, the six and and the tongue is a fire,
-
a world of iniquity. And he's talking. When he's talked
-
about it, he's talking about a conversation. The words that
-
comes out of our mouths in our conversation, that's what
-
he's talking about. So not the literal and atomical tongue.
-
He said, the tongue is so set among our members
-
that it defiles the whole body and sets on fire
-
the cause of nature. And it is set on fire
-
by hell. More like say that the tongue like a fire.
-
It can either be put to good use and become
-
a good saver or a bad master. It can be
-
used for destruction of a construction. That's what he's trying
-
to say. The term our conversations. You can build, you
-
can build people, you can build your home, you can
-
build a church. With the right kind of conversations, hallelujah.
-
All destroy it by the wrong kind of conversation. So
-
when you are in church and people are quiring, and
-
people are fighting, and people are gossipping back biting, then
-
the Bible pol said, it is said you will destroy yourselves.
-
You will destroy yourself. Go can't help you. You will
-
destroy yourself. So for me as a past and as
-
the leader, I said that, hey, hallelujah, you all die
-
your footsteps, so you are that your tongues and conversation,
-
everything that you want to say, you want to build,
-
you want to build, you want to do. It takes
-
two to fight, hallelujah. So it's not like you don't
-
see that things or no. Yeah, but you know that
-
this is a tactic of the devil. Should I go
-
fire for fire? No? And for me as a pastor,
-
this is some one of the things that God has
-
taught me over the years, and we have been doing it.
-
We always got I said that you have have you
-
talked to them? Have you taught them how to use
-
the term? If no teach, then they will have no excuse.
-
Maybe they don't know. We admit a lot of us
-
are coming from this fans now and one of my
-
count they said when they were there was such a
-
large house. The father had to buy boxing gloves.
-
M hm.
-
So so when when when the controlvers, and then then
-
they will he will give you the gloves, and then
-
you have to fight and settle the score. And this
-
this was a polygamy. So so some of the children
-
they were of the same. Then this one in your bonnoop,
-
in your bonnopa, it's okay if I come, let's settle
-
the nuoper thing and then you'll give them the boxing
-
gloves and then I mean realo and they will fight.
-
So next than you have to empty the trash box. Yeah,
-
now that we are settled it. Yeah, amen, Amen, you
-
know so why yes, it's the same reputation thing. Why
-
don't you allow yourselves in this scripture to be misunderstood?
-
Even though God you say, God is the final judge,
-
and as you say say every conversation, it will be
-
jack on the final day. Amen. Then let's do the
-
last verse, and then we'll pray, and then and then
-
we'll continue on Wednesday. Why every kind of beast and
-
bed of reptile and creature of the sea is tamed
-
and has been tamed by mankind Verse eight. But no
-
man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil food,
-
of deadly poison. Let's go on, let me read you
-
with it. Listen, we bless our God and Father, and
-
with it with case men who have been made in
-
the similitude of God. Ten out of the same mouth
-
proceed blessing and cursing my bread. And these things ought
-
not to be so, So you understand. For a believer,
-
let it always. That's why I said, seizing your conversations
-
with so we have been redeemed to be a blessing.
-
So when you are true and a genuine and a
-
sincere believer, I no remember what Jesus said. He said
-
a good tree can only bear good fruit. When you
-
are seeing the battery, the immediate the bathroom, immediately your
-
mind goes that, no, no, their roots, there's something wrong
-
with it. That's why I've taken my time every time
-
I have the opportunity to take. It's not me, but
-
I know it's God that take them to the foundation.
-
You are yeah, you hear me over and over the
-
foundation because immediately you get the foundation right, and God
-
seals and endorses you with the holy ghow. We are
-
on track. We are on track, because you will never
-
enjoy it if you are producing badroom, because you have
-
a good tree, and the Holy Spirit would chastise you.
-
He says that every son that he receives, he does
-
what he disciplines. God is a disciplinarian. Say amen, God disciplines,
-
God chasties it, God rebukes, God corrects. And I believe
-
that this month is using that to do it. And
-
this yet to bring order into the way we conduct
-
our lives individually, in the family level, in the community,
-
and we're leading church. A lot of things are going
-
on that has made the church on healthy and you, yourself,
-
you and either Christian work is unhealthy. People cannot recognize
-
the image of Christ in us. Why no order? And
-
it's all because the foundation, the word, the way we
-
are not reading the word, we are not meditating on it,
-
and we are all paying it. So our conversations, we
-
have been saved by our conversations, doesn't show that we
-
have been seen. And it's telling us that you and
-
I we are responsible. Even only will rise up and
-
take responsibility. We contend the term by the power and
-
the health of the Holy Spirit. So we are welcoming
-
you today, married Clark for longevity. The term I tell
-
you you can make it. Amen, Let God take center staves.
-
The same God who guided your lives when we're a
-
young boy young girl, gave your time, talent and treasures,
-
he says, I change notes. The secret is that don't
-
grow out. And now you are no longer a child
-
of God. Anytime that you majore and you are no
-
longer a child of God, You're in big trouble because
-
you don't take instructions. Amen, seventeen year old, you give
-
your life God, you call you child of God, twelve
-
year old, child of Immediately you graduates and saying now
-
a man of God. You are in big trouble. You
-
have problems with the rise will continue.
