0:15
Oh Lord, our Lord, how excellent is thy name, and all the
0:19
earth, Oh that men would praise you, Oh Lord, for your wonderful
0:22
words towards the children of men, for your goodness, for your loving kindness,
0:26
for your tendom mercies. Great is your faithfulness to us, Oh Lord.
0:30
So we lift our hands in the sanctuary. We come now boldly to
0:34
the throne of Grace, Lord, to obtain the mercy, the help that
0:38
we need in such a time as this. Lord, we pray that your
0:42
word today will be effective, Oh God, will be effervescent in the hearts
0:47
and minds of people everywhere, that eyes will be open, ears will be
0:52
unstopped, Oh God, and hearts will be changed. Lord, for your
0:56
glory, for your kingdom, for your honor, for your majesty, for
0:59
your minion and power, both now and forever. Lord, we thank you
1:03
now in advance for all of your blessings in Jesus name. Amen and Amen.
1:10
All right, God bless you again. We welcome you to this another

2:13
you to share a Man with someone else. Amen, Please please share it
2:19
with someone else. The good news of the Gospel, the good news of
2:23
the promises of God, the word of God a man, the word of
2:27
God that a man cannot fail, cannot return to him void a man.
2:31
And this is what I am certainly going to re emphasize again on today.
2:37
God's a man promises is a man affirmative Amen action toward his people. Amen.
2:46
Those who trust in the Lordly need not live in fear, in doubt
2:51
and unbelief. A man beneath their privileges, a man because God has already
2:57
spoken good concern us. He's already commanded blessings concerning us. He's already a
3:04
man prospered our way. Blessed is the man who walks not in the council
3:07
of the ungodly, nor stands in the way of senators, nor sits in
3:10
the seat of the scornful. But it's delight, the Bible says, is
3:14
in the lawful Lord, and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
3:16
And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water,
3:23
bringing for fruit in seeds, and his leaves also shall not wither. And
3:28
thank you Jesus. Everything that he does, the Bible says, shall prosper.
3:35
It shall prosper. Psalm number one. That's Psalm number one. Amen,
3:39
the promises of God. He will establish you, he will strengthen you,
3:43
he will settle you. He will plant you a man like a tree,
3:47
Amen, by the rivers of water, roots deeply embedded, a man
3:53
in him, a man in him, we live and move and have our
3:57
being, the Bible tells us, Amen. And so I'm in the affirmative
4:00
action program of God, an in the affirmative action program of the people of
4:04
God is the affirm affirmation. Amen. It is the affirmation that has already
4:11
come from the Lord himself. Everyone who is in the household of faith,
4:15
everyone who is baptizing to Jesus Christ, everyone who is calling on the name
4:19
of the Lord, trusting in the Lord with all of their heart and leaning
4:23
not to their own understanding. Everyone of God's children a man, who have
4:30
been adopted into this sonship, who are sons of God, heirs of the
4:32
promise a man. They are the recipients of God's divine favor, of God's
4:40
blessings. That he has a man again decreed for our lives. A man,
4:45
not just in eternity, Lord help us a man, but also right
4:49
here in this present wheld. We have already been affirmed a man by the
4:57
Lord Jesus, who loved us, gave himself for us. We've already been
5:00
declared to be victorious more than conquerorus through Jesus Christ, a man. The
5:05
God who always causes us. The Bible says, to triumph a man.
5:11
We triumph over whatever obstacles, whatever opposition, whatever wickedness, whatever schemes traps
5:18
a man devices. The adversary may set a man for us God always causes
5:25
his people to triumph. And I remind you again of Romans eight twenty eight
5:30
a man through verse thirty one, we know the Bible says that all things,
5:34
thank you, Jesus, worked together for good to those who love God,
5:44
to those who are the called according to His purpose, for whom he
5:51
foreknew. He also predestined to be conformed to the image of his son,
5:58
that he might be the firstborn among many brother Moore, whom he predestined.
6:04
These he also called. In whom he called these he also justified. In
6:10
whom he justified, these he also glorified. Oh, thank you Jesus.
6:15
Listening to this verse number thirty one, what then shall we say to these
6:19
things? If God is for us, if God be for us, who
6:31
can be against us? Amen? Can anyone professing to be a child of
6:39
God, blessed and highly favored? And at the same time, can you
6:46
be a helpless victim at the mercy of wicked and ungodly men who supposedly,
6:55
maybe from your perspective, whole the reigns of power, have the authority,
7:00
have your future destiny in your in their control. Can you can you be
7:04
a professing child of God? Can you be a child of the of the
7:09
King again, blessed and highly favored, and at the same time be a
7:16
helpless victim at the mercy of wicked and ungodly men. Ah, some of
7:31
us give too much power and control to the devil, to the enemy,
7:36
to the adversary, to the kingdom of darkness that's already been defeated. Because
7:45
God's word says, no God forbid. Let God be true, and every
7:49
man a liar. Our problem. And I'm gonna identify for you today what
7:56
the problem is and what the solution is. And I tell you right,
8:00
and the solution is repentance and turning back to God. Because we we want
8:07
to speak as a people whoever the we is are. We have turned away
8:16
from neology, that is getting on our needs, believing in prayer, Amen,
8:24
making our petitions known to the Lord, crying out to him, looking
8:28
to him. Amen. We've turned away from neology and from theology our knowledge
8:37
of God that has already been Amen revealed to us through his word. My
8:43
people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. We've turned away from neology and from
8:46
theology to political ideology. We've turned to dependency on government, governmentology to trusting
9:00
and feudal man. So now we have human ology, if I can make
9:07
that a word for today, hoping to thrive, hoping to prosper, hoping
9:13
to to to be uh somebody AND's relevant and exalted and lifted up, while
9:26
living in a state of wretchedness, even in our own sinfulness. You see,
9:33
ladies and gentlemen, your problem is not racism. Your problem is not
9:37
discrimination. Your problem is not your skin color. Your problem is not your
9:46
birth gender. Your problem is not your birth lineage. Your problem is sin.
9:54
Your problem is your sin lineage. Your problem is sin in your members.
10:01
Your problem is your own wretchedness. Sin is the cursedness for any man.
10:09
And we are all born in sin and shapen in iniquity. And that's
10:13
why Jesus said to Nicodemus, who was somebody a man of prominence, you
10:20
must be born again. It won't profit you even to gain the whole world.
10:28
If you lose your soul. There's nothing you can give in exchange.
10:31
No affirmative action program of sinful man, and a sinful nation that is full
10:39
of ungodliness, unthankfulness, and unrighteousness will be of any profitableness long term to
10:48
anyone every good, the Bible says, and every perfect gift comes down from
10:54
above, comes down from God, who is the Father of lights, with
11:00
whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. God has no respect of
11:05
persons. Your problem is your ignorance of God. Your problems is. Your
11:11
problem is your ignorance of His word. Your problem is your ignorance of His
11:16
power. Your problem is your ignorance of His ability to do the exceeding abundantly
11:24
above anything all that we can ask or even think. You see when God
11:31
is for you, and I'm talking to the people of God, Amen,
11:37
I mean, if you're if you're living in sin, if you are disobedient,
11:41
if you're living in wickedness, you are on your own, and God
11:46
help you. And I pray that God will have mercy. I pray that
11:50
God will open your eyes. I pray that God will turn you from the
11:54
darkness to the light. Amen, Because you cannot and even if you do
12:00
prosper in this world, it will not profit you in the long run.
12:05
It will not profit you an eternity. Amen. That's your problem. Your
12:11
problem, Amen, coming into coming into this world, has nothing to do
12:18
with your race, has nothing to do with your gender has nothing to do
12:20
with your lineage as nothing. It is the sin, the wretchedness that is
12:26
in your soul that needs to be expunged, expelled, cleansed, cast out
12:41
by the power of the Holy Ghost through the blood of Jesus Christ. That's
12:48
the only way, Amen, for you, a man to a man,
12:52
rise above whatever the obstacles that you will face, whatever the troubles that you
12:58
will incur in this life. And I don't care what your skin color is.
13:03
I don't care what your nationality is. I don't care where you live,
13:05
how rich or poor you were when you were born, what you inherited
13:11
or didn't inherit. Amen, And the problem that we face again, it's
13:22
sin, sin in my members, Paul said, old wretched man, that
13:26
I am who shall deliver me. But when God is for you, See
13:33
when you come into the kingdom, when you come into the knowledge of the
13:37
truth, when you come to be an heir, when you come and the
13:41
scales fall from your eyes and your ears are open, and your understanding and
13:48
enlightening. Enlightenment comes when you come to know who God is and that He
13:56
is for you. The question is is who can be against you? And
14:01
the answer to the question is, no one can. No one can,
14:07
No one can now. It does not mean that no one will try to
14:18
be against you. It does not mean that they will not attempt to work
14:24
against you. Of course, in their own ignorance of who God is and
14:30
what his promises are and what his protection for his people are. It doesn't
14:35
mean he won't happen. It won't. It doesn't mean to say that it's
14:37
going to go away again again. Keep in mind, thank you, Bible
14:41
readers. We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers,
14:48
spiritual wickedness. But if God is for you, no one has the
14:54
ability, No one has the wherewithal No one has the power to oppose or
15:00
to reverse, or to deny or to dis annul to counsel what God has
15:05
already decreed and spoken concerning your life in this world and certainly of course in
15:13
the ages to come. You have your Bibles. I want you to go
15:16
with me to the Book of Numbers, chapter number twenty three, and we're
15:20
gonna read about a man by the name of Balem and Bailac, a man
15:26
by the name of bale and a man by the name of Bailac, Balem
15:31
mose Seer see Er, or what we may call a prophet today. Baylac
15:39
is the king of Moab who sees Israel on their way to their destiny,
15:46
and he is afraid of them being a threat to him, to his people.
15:54
And by the way, before we go to chapter twenty three, once
15:58
you hold your place there for just a moment, turned back just the page
16:02
or so to chapter twenty two, which gives us just a little bit of
16:06
a background to what we're going to see happening in chapters twenty three and twenty
16:11
four. This Bailac and Bailam, Amen, these two main characters in this
16:18
narrative. Amen, I just want you to give. I want you to
16:22
understand. If you don't know the story, if you're not familiar with already,
16:25
I want you to understand what the issue is. Again, the people
16:29
of God have come out of Egypt. They're on their way, being led
16:30
by Moses. Amen, on their way to the Promised Land. And that's
16:34
who we are, the people of God, on our way to our destiny.
16:41
And our destiny again, first and foremost in this world is to be
16:45
more and more like Jesus. Amen, Your destiny is not riches and fortune
16:51
and fame and all of that kind of stuff in this world. Even though
16:53
God, Amen, is pleased to bless and prosper his people. I've said
16:56
it a hundred times, I said one hundred and one. God is not
17:00
against riches and prosperity and blessings for his people. He delights in doing so.
17:07
Amen, Listen what the Bible tells us. This is what. Let
17:10
me give you a quick background the first six verses of Numbers, chapter twenty
17:12
two. Then the children of his removed camped in the plains of Moab on
17:18
the side of the Jordan, across from Jericho. Now Bailak, the son
17:22
of Zippor, saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites, and Moab
17:30
was exceedingly afraid of the people because they were many. And Moab was sick
17:36
and with dread. The Bible says, because of the children of Israel.
17:41
So Moab said to the elders of Midian. Now this company will lick up
17:45
everything around us as an ox licks up the grass of the field. And
17:52
Bailak, the son of Zippor, was king of the Moabites at that time.
17:56
Then he sent messengers to Bailam. Now first and formed. Let me
18:00
very quick, you know what fear does to people. You know, a
18:03
lot of times when people are opposing you, it is because they are afraid
18:08
of you. They're fearful a man. They have no reason to be.
18:15
But this is the spirit of fear that comes from the devil, the spirit
18:18
of fear that comes from the enemy. God has not given to his people
18:22
the spirit of fear. Now we need to and this is why we need
18:25
to learn how to a man walk in the confidence, walk in the authority,
18:32
walk in the priesthood, walk in the kingship, walk in a man
18:37
the blessings that God has decreed concerning us. And again that it's not about
18:41
money, it's not about wealth. It's about a man knowing who you are,
18:45
who you are, who it's for you, and that no one can
18:49
be against you. Now, this is not grounds for boasting or bragging,
18:52
or trampling on people or taking advantage of people. This is all about a
18:57
man knowing that who your real enemy is and whose head you need to be
19:03
stomping on, and that is the devil and all of his demons. Jesus
19:07
said, I give you power and authority over all of the works of the
19:11
enemy. That's what we need to know. Our fight is not against flesh
19:18
and blood. The devil doesn't care what your skin color is. He doesn't
19:22
care what your nationality is. He doesn't care who you are, where you
19:26
are, who you think you are. He just simply wants to destroy you
19:32
man, whoever you are. Amen. And so he puts this fear.
19:41
And the children of Moab, who, by the way, we're related to
19:45
the children of Israel. They were all kind of related because Moab and Ammon
19:52
were the sons of Ah. Y'all. Remember Abraham and Lot when the lords
20:02
destroyed Sodom and Gamara. Well, the daughters of Lot had an incestuous relationship.
20:07
Got the father John, you can read all this back in the Book
20:10
of Genesis, got their fathers drunk, and they had children by their own
20:14
father, a man, Ammon and Moab. And so these are the descendants
20:19
of Lot. Amen, and now, and they're related to the children of
20:25
Israel. This is centuries laters later, of course, and and and but
20:29
but they're related. But they're afraid. They're fearful the spirit of fear.
20:33
They are fearful that, Amen, the people of God are going to attack
20:38
them. The people of God are going to destroy, and the people of
20:41
God are going to fight against them. The people of God are gonna just
20:44
eat up all of them, are gonna take over. So the Bible says
20:52
Bailac, who is the king of Moab. He sent messengers to Baalim,
20:57
the son of Beor peth Or, which is near the river in the land
21:02
of the sons of his people, to call him, saying, look,
21:04
a people has come from Egypt. Oh, I get to that, and
21:10
just see they cover the face of the earth and are settling next to me.
21:15
See he thought they won't fear fear, fear. They moved those Christians,
21:22
those Christians over here. Living man, we're gonna I wish I had
21:33
to tie, Oh, I wish I had to tie. See look what
21:36
he says, They cover the face of the earth and are settling next to
21:40
me. Therefore, please come at once, Bailum, curse this people for
21:45
me, for they are too mighty for me. See he already understands the
21:52
power of God. Oh if we only knew Amen, for they are too
21:56
mighty for me. Perhaps I shall be able to defeat them and drive them
22:00
out of the land. For I know that he listen what Bailac says of
22:04
Balem, he sends his messengers, for I know, Balem, that he
22:10
whom you bless is blessed, and he whom you curse is cursed. I'll
22:17
get to that in just a man. So let's go to chapter twenty three.
22:19
Let's see what happens. Then Balem said to Bailac, bill seven altars
22:25
from me. By the way, I skipped over all of the preliminaries concerning
22:30
Balem and his going on, and how he was on his donkey, and
22:33
the donkey spoke to him, and and all of those things with the Angel
22:37
of the Lord intercepting him on the way. You can read all of that
22:41
in the latter part of chapter twenty two. But we get to chapter twenty
22:45
three when the Lord tells Balem to go ahead and go with him, but
22:48
only what I say. It's what you're going to say. So Balem says
22:53
to Bailac, build seven altars for me here, and prepare for me here
23:00
seven bulls and seven rams. And Bailoc did just as Balem had spoken,
23:04
and Bayloc and Balem offered a bull and a ram on each altar. Then
23:12
Balem said to Bailac, this is the prophet, speaking to the fearful king.
23:18
Stand by your burnt offering, and I will go. Perhaps the Lord
23:23
will come to meet me, and whatever he shows me, I will tell
23:32
you. So he went, the Bible says, to a desolate height,
23:37
and God met Balem Balim the prophet, and he said to him, I
23:45
have prepared the seven altars, and I have offered on each altar a bull
23:51
and a ram. Then the Lord put a word in Balem's mouth and said,
23:57
return to Bayloc, and thus you shall speak all right. So he
24:06
returned, the Bible says to him, and there he was standing by his
24:11
bird offering, he and all the princes of Moab. And he took up
24:18
his oracle and said, these are the words of Balim, a man returning
24:22
back to Bailac to tell him what. Thus saith the Lord Baylac, the
24:29
king of Moab, has brought me from Aram from the mountains of the east.
24:33
Come curse Jacob for me, and come denounce Israel. Listen to this,
24:41
y'all amen. Verse number eight. Balem says, he continues, how
24:48
shall I curse whom God has not cursed? And how shall I denounce whom
25:00
the Lord has not denounced. For from the top of the rocks I see
25:08
him. He's speaking of Israel, the nation, the people of God,
25:12
the seat of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. From the top of the rocks,
25:17
I see him, and from the heels I behold him. There are
25:22
people dwelling alone, not reckoning itself, among the nations. Oh, I
25:30
wish I had the time. Oh God, you hear those words. Are
25:34
people dwelling alone, not reckoning itself among the nations. Think about that for
25:41
a little bit verse number ten. Who can count the dust of Jacob or
25:47
number one fourth of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous,
25:52
and let my end be like his. Then Bailac said to Baalam, what
25:57
have you done to me? I took you, I brought you, I
26:03
paid you, I sent for you to curse my enemies. And look you
26:11
have blessed them bountifully. Ah, let me just let me just pause here
26:18
for just a moment here, because what we have here is blissful ignorance.
26:23
And and listen, and and and I've talked about ignorance before, and and
26:30
it's one thing Paul himself, by the way, prior to his conversion,
26:36
and this is these are his own words. He says, I was ignorant.
26:41
I did what I did in ignorance and in unbelief. There there there
26:47
are just sometimes you just have people that are just they don't know ignorance a
26:52
man sometimes it's just simple I didn't know. Amen. And and when you
27:00
don't know, and unless God again has mercy on you. Now there there's
27:08
there's ignorance, and then there's wilful ignorance. The Bible says, when they
27:15
knew God, they glorified him, not as God Romans chapter number one.
27:19
That's wilful ignorance. I mean that's that's that's hearing, that's seeing. That's
27:26
a man witnessing and then turning a buine eye and a deaf ear and a
27:34
hardened heart. Amen to the word of the Lord, to the counsel of
27:38
God. Amen. When he calls you refuses, when he stretch out,
27:44
stretches out his hand, you disregard. You said that. Now, the
27:47
Bible says, all of his counsel and you don't want any of his reproof.
27:51
When he speaks, you don't listen when he calls, you won't answer.
27:55
When he knocks, you won't open. Amen. That's wilful ignorance.
28:00
Now, whether Bayloc has wilful ignorance or just a lack of knowledge or understanding
28:07
of who this people is, Amen, I don't know, Amen, But
28:11
it's ignorance nevertheless. And this blissful ignorance of Bayloc, by the way,
28:18
is alive and well today. Amen. It is alive and well today.
28:23
And sally. Even in the church, there are people a man who are
28:26
attendees in the church, who believe that man has the power to bless you
28:36
and to curse you. That's what he said to Balem when he sent for
28:42
him. Amen. He sent for Balem, and he says to Balem,
28:49
please come at once curse this people for me, Amen, for they are
28:55
too mighty for me. Perhaps I shall be able to defeat them and drive
28:59
them out of the land. For I know that he whom you blessed Balem,
29:03
is blessed, and he whom you curse is cursed. And Balem got
29:08
there, went with him. The Lord put a word in his mouth,
29:12
and what the Baiem come back and say, Man, I can't help you.
29:18
I can't curse whom God has cursed. Our God has not cursed brother.
29:23
I can't curse whom God has not cursed. And I can't denounce whom
29:26
the Lord has not denounced. I can't reverse with God all thing. Oh,
29:33
oh, oh, my God. If we would just believe the word
29:37
of God, how shall I? I'm a man? Who do you think
29:42
I am? See? Sometimes we think of people more highly than we ought
29:48
to think. We think of man will above. And I don't care what
29:52
position they are in. I don't care if their president, prime, minister,
29:56
king, prince, governor mayor, I don't care who they are.
30:00
No one, no one has the authority, No one has the wherewithal no
30:06
one has the ability. No one can dis or no what God has already
30:14
decreed declared for your life. No one can, no one, no one.
30:23
How shall I curse whom God has not cursed? And how shall I
30:29
denounce whom the Lord has not denounced? Blissful ignorance. Blissful ignorance, and
30:40
some of it, and may be willful whatever it is, it's ignorance,
30:45
ignorance on the part of even people in the church. Sadly, when you
30:51
believe that a man has the power to bless you and a man has the
30:55
power to curse you, the power is not in any priest any pre in,
31:00
a prophet or any man, to do you good or bad contrary to
31:04
what God has already spoken concerning you. No one can reverse it, No
31:11
one can change it in any way. Not a man. Oh no,
31:19
no prophet so called can bless you in your sinfulness, if you're living in
31:27
sinfulness, if you're living in wickedness. No priest, no prophet, nobody
31:33
can exalt you, can bless you, can get you into the kingdom,
31:37
can make you a child of God in your wilful defiance of the word of
31:44
the Living God. Unless you repent, you will perish. You can buy
31:49
your way in. Oh, oh God help us. No man, no
31:56
man, no man. Bailhim understood it. He knew that he did not
32:07
have the authority he even though Bailock Baby saw him as the prophet of the
32:15
prophets, the seer of the seers, the man who pronounces blessings and curses
32:22
upon anybody, and if he does it, it happens. That's who Bailuck
32:27
thought Balem was. And when Bailuck looked upon the people of Israel, the
32:30
people of God, he said, oh, no, man, you don't
32:35
understand. God has already spoken good concerning the people ain't nothing I can do.
32:42
But you know what, don't think for a moment that the devil is
32:45
just going to go away. Oh, so Balim told him first number twelve.
32:55
So he answered and said, must I not take heed to speak what
32:59
the Lord has put in my mouth? Oh? If you are a prophet
33:02
of God, if you, oh, thank you Lord Lord. Let me
33:07
move on, Let me I don't even have time. Ah, you be
33:13
careful to say only what God says, to speak only what God speaks.
33:19
Amen. A lot of people, a lot of preachers, a lot of
33:22
folk in trouble today because they've gone beyond what the word of the Lord has
33:29
spoken. Amen. Bailum even understood that he could not do that. Then
33:37
Bailac said to him, please come with me to another place. See changing
33:43
places. They ain't gonna make a difference. I don't care if you go
33:45
to the east side, west side, north side, south side, underside,
33:50
top side, it doesn't matter. So he said, come, let's
33:54
go to another place from which you may see him. You shall see only
33:59
the outer part of them, and shall not see them all. Maybe maybe
34:02
you, maybe your vision is obscuring your judgment, Baalim, Maybe you didn't
34:10
quite hear correctly. Maybe maybe your judgment was clouded because you saw too many
34:16
of the people. So let's let's go down to another area, and just
34:21
so we can only see a small portion of them, and you won't see.
34:27
Let's right in your Bible, you shall only see the outer part of
34:30
them, and shall not see them all. Curse them for me from over
34:37
there. See if you only think it's just a few, if you only
34:42
think it's just a handful of folk in the church, Oh, Jesus help
34:47
us, Oh if oh my, oh my, God help us. Jesus,
34:51
heppers Jesus. I told y'all last I pray that prayer every day.
34:54
God help us, God help us. Oh, thank you, Jesus,
34:59
God help us. So he brought him, the Bible says, to the
35:04
field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars,
35:07
and offered a bull and a ram on each altar. And he said to
35:13
Bayloch, this is Baalim, the prophet, saying to Bayloch the king,
35:16
stand here by your burnt offering while I meet the Lord over there. Then
35:21
the Lord met Balem and put a word in his mouth and said, go
35:27
back to Bayloch, and thus you shall speak. So he came to him,
35:34
and there he was standing by his burnt offering, and the princess of
35:37
Moab were with him. And Bayloch said to him, what has the Lord
35:42
spoken? What did he say this time? Then he took up his oracle
35:45
and said, rise up, Bayloch, and hear listen to me, son
35:50
of Zippor. Oh y'all, y'all got ho are you ready for this?
35:57
God is not a man that he should lie, Oh, thank you Jesus,
36:04
nor a son of man that he should repent? Has he said and
36:09
will he not do? Has he spoken? And will he not make it
36:15
good? Oh? My God, Oh, I feel like running. I
36:22
feel like running. Oh, I feel like running. I feel like running.
36:27
I feel like I got running in my feet. Y'all would lie,
36:34
Nor a son of man that he should repent. God does not retract.
36:38
God does not take back. God does not change. He is immutable.
36:50
Oh, that is why we can have so much confidence. It's in the
36:53
immutability of God. Has he said and will he not do it? Has
37:01
he spoken it? And will he not make it good? Listen what Balam
37:07
says. Behold Verse twenty, I have received a command to bless he has
37:17
blest and I cannot reverse it. Oh my god, Oh my god.
37:30
Whoa whoo. Man, I love this. I love this. I love
37:37
it. I love it. I'm encouraged to stay with Jesus. Oh,
37:44
I'm encouraged. I'm encouraged. I'm encouraged every time I read the word of
37:47
God. I'm encouraged to stay with the Lord a man because I believe.
37:52
I believe. I believe the word of the Lord. I have receipt.
37:57
Listen what Balem says to bail like, man, I told you the first
38:01
time, and let me reiterate it. Let me let me read, let
38:05
me reiterate it with different words, let me rephrase it, because obviously you're
38:12
not getting the message. I have received a command to bless he has blessed.
38:22
In other way? What is what is me? I'm saying, God
38:25
has already blessed this people, and he's not going to change it. He's
38:30
not gonna take it back, he's not gonna reverse it. He's not going
38:34
to change his mind. And you're not going to change his mind. You're
38:39
not going to cancel it. I can't cancel it. In other words,
38:43
bailac I can't help you. I can't bring a curse on this people because
38:52
I don't have a power. I don't have the authority. I don't know
38:54
who you think I am. Oh Jesus, Oh help us, Oh God,
39:01
help us. Who I have? I have received a command. You
39:09
know what a command is. It's not optional. It's not your choice,
39:17
it's not your prerogative. It's not your decision to make. It's mandatory.
39:25
You're you're obliged to do it, to say it, to perform it.
39:35
By the way, God has commanded all men everywhere to repent. Repentance is
39:39
not optional. I started to throw that in there. Balim said, I
39:45
have received a command to bless In other words, the blessing doesn't come from
39:52
Balem. Israel is not going to be blessed because Balem blesses them. All
39:58
he's doing is reiterating what God it's said, and that's what he told Bay
40:02
Like in the first place, whatever he tells me, that's what I gotta
40:07
say. And I've received a command to bless He's already blessed him, and
40:17
I cannot reverse it. I can't reverse it. Oh God, help me,
40:28
help me, Lord, help me, help me finish this today.
40:30
Listen, let me read the verse twenty one. He has not observed in
40:35
niquity, and Jacob, nor has he seen wickedness in Israel. The Lord
40:39
his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them.
40:46
Oh my God, Oh my God. I got to run, y'all.
40:50
I'm about I'm about to run. The Lord his God is with him.
40:58
Do you hear that? This is what Paul was talking about the Romans
41:00
Chapter eight. If God be for us, If God be for us,
41:07
who can be against us? The shot of a king capital k by the
41:15
way, King Jesus reign. Jesus reign. The shout of a king is
41:25
among them. God brings them out of Egypt. That's what he's done for
41:30
you and I. He's brought us up out of Egypt, out of the
41:34
dungeon, out of slavery, out of poverty, out of misery, out
41:38
of servitude, out of the slavery of sin a man, and made us
41:44
kings and priests. And who can reverse it, no one who can curse
41:53
you, no one. God brought you out, God delivered you, God
42:00
set you up. God made you the head and not the tail, above
42:04
only and not beneath God made you the lenda not to borrow rock. You
42:09
live beneath your privileges is if you're living in beneath your privileges, your benefits
42:14
that God has for you, it's because of your own ignorance of the word
42:17
of God, or the promises of God, or the protection of God.
42:22
The blessings that God has for you right here in this present world. He's
42:29
blessed. He's commanded it his goodness and mercy to follow you all the days
42:34
of your life. Bless when you go out, bless when you come in.
42:36
You beat like a tree planet by the rivers of water. If you
42:38
delight in the word of if you delight yourself and the Oh, my God,
42:42
I whoa all help me, Jesus help me, Jesus help me.
42:49
Jesus. God brings them out of Egypt. He has strength like a wild
42:52
ox. Listen what the Bible says, Verse twenty three. Bailum is not
42:58
finished. For there is no sorcery against Jacob. There is no witchcraft,
43:06
no voodoo, no hexes, no spells, no enchantments. There is no
43:15
sorcery against Jacob, nor any divination against Israel. You can't put a spell,
43:23
you can't i'm i'm, i'm, i'm, i'm. I'm gonna lose
43:29
it here. I'm gonna lose it here. Ah, No sorcery against Jacob,
43:36
no divination against Israel. It now must be said of Jacob and of
43:42
Israel. Oh, what God has done? Do you hear that has done?
43:47
It's already done. You gotta walk in it by faith. You gotta
43:52
take hold of it. You gotta live it. Yes, you gotta live
43:57
it. The justice shall live by faith. You gotta true God, despite
44:00
the circumstances, despite what you're facing, despite the troubles, defight the enemy,
44:05
despite the obstacles, to the traps, the schemes, whatever the enemy
44:12
has devised against you, no weapon formed against you shall prosper. And every
44:17
tug that rises against you, the Bible says, will be condemned. This
44:22
is the heritage of the saints. Again, if you are not saved,
44:28
I can't help you with this. This is not for you. But if
44:31
you are in the kingdom, Oh, if you're a child of God,
44:37
Amen, let me read, Let me let me hurry, let me hurry.
44:43
Look, the Bible says, verse twenty four. People rises like a
44:45
lioness and lifts its step up like a lion. It shall not lie down
44:50
until it devows the prey and drinks the blood of the slain. Then Bailac
44:54
said to bail them, Oh man, just neither hurse them at all,
45:00
nor bless them at all. And so bail him says to bailock man,
45:07
I told you, did I not tell you Verse twenty six. All that
45:15
the Lord speaks that I must do, Oh Jesus, Oh Jesus, Oh
45:22
Jesus, Oh Jesus, happens everything that the Lord says I must do.
45:30
Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out
45:35
of the mouth. Listen, if you live by the word of God,
45:37
you are guaranteed to be blessed. Now, that doesn't mean you're gonna be
45:40
a millionaire billionaire. God may not see fit to bless you in that way.
45:47
It's not just about money. The Bible says, oh, ho ho,
45:53
y'all, Gotta y'all, gotta y'all. We gotta start reading the word
45:58
and believing the word. Amen. Godliness with contentment is the great gain,
46:05
the greatest gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and we carry
46:08
nothing out. This is only the oldest temporal stuff here's just temporary. Abraham
46:15
was Richie took none of it with him. Isaac was Richie, took none
46:19
of it with him. David Solomon, you name it, job, all
46:22
of them, every bit of it, everything that they had, they left
46:25
it all right here, and so will you and I. No matter how
46:30
much or how little you brought nothing in, you carry nothing out. What
46:36
you want to do is as Jesus told us, to store up, lay
46:39
up your treasures in heaven. That's where you put your money. That's where
46:45
you put your treasures. Amen, everything that the Lord says, he says,
46:52
I gotta do it. I gotta obey him. And bailok said the
46:58
bailam. Please come. I'm gonna take you to another place. Perhaps it
47:01
will please God that you may curse them for me from there. This man,
47:07
I don't again, I don't know if this is blissful. What kind
47:09
of ignorance is this? What kind of ignorance is this? This man?
47:14
This is I told I'm telling you the devil is not gonna give it.
47:16
But you have to worry about the devil. I don't care how many places
47:21
he comes at you, how many attacks he come from the back side to
47:23
side, side, of the underside. He's gonna sneak in through your children,
47:29
come through your spouse, come through your relatives somewhere, come through your
47:32
job. I don't care what the angle or what. No weapon, no
47:39
weapon, because all things, the Bible says, work together for good to
47:45
them who love the Lord, to the or the called according to its purpose.
47:47
And if God and be against us, that's God's affirmative action program for
47:54
his people. So now, Baylock, let me let me take you over
48:01
here. Let's go this side. Let's go to this side. Maybe God
48:07
is gonna change his mind and you can curse them over there. Bailip took
48:14
him to the top of p Earl. The Bible says it overlooks the waste
48:16
land. Bailim said, the Bailop build for me here seven also preyer for
48:20
me seven bulls and seven rams. Bailock did as Bailim has said, and
48:22
offered a bulling ram on each all these, just as they did for other
48:25
two times. So Baialim continues, the Bible tells us in next chapter twenty
48:30
four, and I'm gonna read that very quickly. A few verses there reaffirming
48:36
ladies and gentlemen. He's just simply reaffirming what God had already decreed concerning his
48:44
people long ago, even in eternity, pass before Bayloc, before Baalim,
48:52
before the people of God, before the nation of Israel was even formed,
48:59
before they were even conceived before, and Balem rolls up into their positions of
49:04
power. I don't care who rises up in power and prominence in this world.
49:09
God is for his people period, no matter who you are, no
49:13
matter where you are, no matter where you find yourself, and whatever kingdom.
49:17
Even if you're taken into servitu like Daniel shot raped me shack, God
49:22
can call if you are obey, If you will obey God, if you
49:25
will be obedient to him as they were, God will raise you up.
49:30
God will cause you to triumph. Amen, Oh God, I wish I
49:37
had. Oh, let me hurry, let me finish. So in chapter
49:42
twenty four, Balem continues, this is the third time, by the way,
49:45
and I'm just gonna pick it up at verse number eight because Baalem,
49:50
Amen, he warned Baylok in the beginning. Whatever God says, I gotta
49:57
say what he says. And then again I can I have to deal with
50:05
Baalim another time. The end of baym those you know your Bible, you
50:07
know you know Baalim was Um. Well, you know the end of Balim.
50:12
But let me let me, let me go to chapter twenty four,
50:15
verse number eight. This is Balim speaking for the third time. Listen what
50:19
he says. God. He's speaking concerning Israel, concerning the people of thought.
50:23
God brings him out of Egypt. That's what God has done again.
50:27
Egypt represents Egypt is a type of the world. It represents world. Think,
50:35
don't think about the nation. Even though he's speaking of the nation of
50:37
Egypt, when they weren't in servitude in bondage over four hundred years slavery.
50:44
Amen, God brought them out un in anyone who who's brought out today?
50:50
You brought out from under the bondage of sin, the servitude of sin.
50:54
Amen, God brings him out of Egypt. He has strength like a wild
51:00
He shall consume the nations his enemies. He shall break their bones and pierce
51:04
them with his arrows. He shall bow down, or rather he bows down,
51:07
He lies down as a lion, And as a lion who shall rouse
51:12
him? Listen what the Bible says verse number nine. The latter claws bless
51:16
it is he who blesses you, and curse it is he who curses you.
51:23
Now, where in the world did Bailim get that from? Where have
51:30
you heard that before? Oh? Help me, somebody. Bailiem didn't have
51:35
a Bible. The Bible was not yet written. Moses had not yet written
51:40
the first five books of the Bible. Bail him to have a Bible.
51:44
So where did Bailim get this from? You know where you got it from?
51:47
From God? Where did God get it from? From what he said
51:51
to Abraham, I will bless him who blesses you, and I will curse
51:57
him who curses you. These are the descendants of Abraham and the Bible.
52:00
Lets us know we are the seat of Abraham by faith, because Father Abraham
52:05
is the father of the faithful. Blessed is he who blesses you, and
52:12
cursed is he who curses you. Then Bayloc's anger was aroused, and then
52:16
he gets mad. You know, people will kill upset when, yeah,
52:20
the things don't quite go their way, Bayloc gets upset. He was arousing
52:27
his anger. Brother was aroused against Balham and struck his hands together. And
52:30
Bayloch said to Bailam, I called you to curse my enemies, and look,
52:35
you have bountifully blessed them these three times. Now, therefore, flee
52:40
to your place, get out of my face. In other words, I
52:44
said I would greatly honor you, but in fact, the Lord has kept
52:47
you back from honor. Do you can you do? This is? I'm
52:52
this man is woefully ignorant, because people, this is this is when you
52:57
have a superficial, shallow knowledge of who God is and see, sometimes people
53:05
just see God as one of the gods, one of these, you know,
53:08
gods of the nation, some some imaginary god. Or he's not.
53:13
He's not the creator, he's not the sovereign, he's not the King of
53:17
kings and Lord of lords. No, he's just one of the gods.
53:23
And that's obviously what Baylok was thinking, that this God could be overcome,
53:29
this God could change his mind. I called you to curse my enemies,
53:34
and you have bountifully blessed them three times. Get out of my face.
53:40
I was gonna honor you. I was gonna promote you. I was gonna
53:43
make you great, greater than what you were. But the Lord has kept
53:50
you back from honor. So Bailum said to Baylok. Did I not also
53:53
speak to your messages whom you said to me saying, if Bayloc were to
53:58
give me his house full of sin over and go, I could not go
54:02
beyond the word of the Lord. Nobody can. Nobody can at least bail
54:12
him. Understood that he said, I can't go beyond the word of the
54:15
Lord to do good or bad of my own will. Y'all better read.
54:21
Somebody better read, Oh my God, read the word. Believe the word.
54:24
I can't. No man can bailhm couldn't do it, and nobody else
54:30
can either. I cannot go beyond the word of the Lord to do good
54:36
or bad of my own will. What the Lord says that I must speak,
54:46
I gotta do what he says. Again, Ladies and gentlemen, I
54:51
remind you, Let me remind you again. Let me remind you again.
54:57
Your problem is not racism. Your problem it's not discrimination. Your problem is
55:00
not your skin color color your problem, and it's not your birth gender,
55:05
it's not your birth lineage. Your problem is sin. It's your sin lineage.
55:09
It's the sin that's in your members. It's the wretchedness that is in
55:13
you. That's the only curse that keeps you back. Sin disobedience, repent.
55:24
The Bible says righteousness, it's what exhust nation. But sin is a
55:28
reproach to any people. Your problem is your ignorance of God. Your problem
55:34
is your ignorance of His word, of his power, of his ability.
55:38
But if you will open your eyes, your ears, if you will repent,
55:45
if you will return to him, if you will fall on your knees
55:50
wherever you are right now, Lord have mercy, Lord forgive, Lord,
55:55
save, Lord, deliver. God will rend the heavens. A broken hearted,
56:01
he said, a country spirit. I wouldn't know why it despise God.
56:05
Lord. We pray to day that you will help somebody to day to
56:07
see, to know, to understand all of the blessings that you have in
56:12
store for your people, to them that obey you, to them that are
56:15
called by your name, all things you cause to work together. For I
56:19
were good. We give you the glory of the honor. For if you
56:22
are for us, no one can be against us. A man and a man
