- 0:00Speaker 1: For onto Us was the gospel preach as well as
- 0:03Speaker 1: one to them. But the world preached did not profit
- 0:06Speaker 1: them because they fit did not feed on the rails.
- 0:12Speaker 1: Blessed be God forever. Jeremiah thirty one, verse two to
- 0:18Speaker 1: sayers the Lord. The people which were left off the sword,
- 0:22Speaker 1: found grace in the wilderness. Grace in the wilderness even
- 0:28Speaker 1: Israel when I went to cause him to rest. You
- 0:31Speaker 1: welcome to Faith Feed episode one hundred and seventy six.
- 0:35Speaker 1: Grace in the wilderness. Grace in the wilderness. I remember
- 0:41Speaker 1: sometime in three I shared on an episode the wilderness Experience,
- 0:47Speaker 1: and I explained on the fact that Jesus had a
- 0:50Speaker 1: wilderness experience. He came out victorious. You can get that
- 0:54Speaker 1: episode and listening to it today, I want to talk
- 0:56Speaker 1: about the grace that finds a man in the wilderness
- 0:59Speaker 1: because I tell you, if he noticed the story of
- 1:01Speaker 1: Jesus in the wilderness being tempered before he was centered
- 1:04Speaker 1: of the devil. He says, what that he was with
- 1:06Speaker 1: the wild beasts and common what does that signify? It
- 1:09Speaker 1: means that there was he was in a dangerous terrain.
- 1:12Speaker 1: He was not in a place of comfort, He was
- 1:14Speaker 1: not in a place. He was in a place of strife.
- 1:16Speaker 1: In fact, he was in a place, in the fearful place,
- 1:19Speaker 1: just like when Daniel was in the lions. Then he
- 1:21Speaker 1: was in the place of terror. But then there was
- 1:24Speaker 1: something significant that the scripture shows us there. Let's read it.
- 1:27Speaker 1: Mark chapter one. Reading from verse twelve, he says, and
- 1:30Speaker 1: immediately the spirit, that's the spirit of God drive him.
- 1:33Speaker 1: Drove Jesus into the wilderness, the wilderness. Now see what happened,
- 1:38Speaker 1: he says. And he was there in the wilderness forty
- 1:41Speaker 1: days temple of Satan, he na, says them, and was
- 1:44Speaker 1: with the wild beasts, he now says, listening, and the angels.
- 1:49Speaker 1: This is what exactly, if you're trying to understand what
- 1:53Speaker 1: happened in the time of the then Daniel in the lions, there,
- 1:56Speaker 1: the Bible said, and the angels, the angels meanish or
- 2:00Speaker 1: the angels shots the amount of the beast. That's administration.
- 2:04Speaker 1: The help of angels is what we call administration. When
- 2:07Speaker 1: you are being helped, you're being minister too. So many
- 2:10Speaker 1: people do not understand what ministry is all about. Ministry
- 2:14Speaker 1: is the word help. Whether it's a pastor, a teacher,
- 2:18Speaker 1: an evangelist, a prophet their assignment. Their primary assignment is
- 2:24Speaker 1: what to help. The angels were there to help Jesus.
- 2:29Speaker 1: Or if you understand as a believer that what ministry
- 2:33Speaker 1: is help, ministry has help, you will not struggle with
- 2:36Speaker 1: ministry because the primary focus of ministry is that word.
- 2:41Speaker 1: And that is why you need to know this, so
- 2:43Speaker 1: that you can identify the grace of God in the wilderness.
- 2:49Speaker 1: We read it in Jeremiah. Grace can be found in
- 2:54Speaker 1: the wilderness. So it doesn't matter what season you are.
- 2:57Speaker 1: You know, it doesn't matter what grace can be found.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Help can locate you. You might be in the face
- 3:04Speaker 1: of wolf's. Help can locate you. Help can locate you.
- 3:08Speaker 1: How do you find that help? The Bible tells us
- 3:10Speaker 1: in Hebrews for what come boldly towards the throne of grace,
- 3:14Speaker 1: to obtain messy, to find grace. Listen to this, Listen
- 3:17Speaker 1: to this, Listen to this. We have the throne of
- 3:20Speaker 1: grace by virtue of our logists. There's a throne of
- 3:23Speaker 1: grace that we need to approach, and we need to
- 3:25Speaker 1: approach boldly. Listen to my episode on episode one seventy
- 3:30Speaker 1: four on the High Priests of our profession you will
- 3:33Speaker 1: get to understand this more in context. So there is
- 3:36Speaker 1: a profession that we profess. It is by virtue of that.
- 3:40Speaker 1: It is by virtue of that. When you listen to you,
- 3:42Speaker 1: you understand that you can now come boldly. That's why
- 3:45Speaker 1: it says the spirit driver it or the spirit that
- 3:47Speaker 1: lead you get. Now it is by spirit you comebodly,
- 3:50Speaker 1: you to the trone of grace. It that says that
- 3:52Speaker 1: you may obtain MESSI. So you come to ask for MESSI.
- 3:55Speaker 1: Now the essence for your asking for messy is that
- 3:57Speaker 1: you will find grace. To grace is administered, help the
- 4:01Speaker 1: angels will come. That's why you are in teigle. He
- 4:04Speaker 1: said he shall give his angels charge. And that's where
- 4:06Speaker 1: that scripture comes into light, not when the devil uses
- 4:10Speaker 1: it against the child of God. Remember when Jesus was
- 4:12Speaker 1: tended and Jesus said, doub shall not attend the Lord
- 4:16Speaker 1: thy God. Why because you do not bring perivious time
- 4:21Speaker 1: upon yourself as a believer. It is the devil that comes.
- 4:23Speaker 1: And when the devil comes knocking, you are very well
- 4:26Speaker 1: prepared with that scripture. He shall give his angels charge.
- 4:29Speaker 1: Not that you use your hand to go and put
- 4:32Speaker 1: yourself in danger. Daniel did not put himself through him.
- 4:36Speaker 1: That is why you must be led. Yes, you must
- 4:39Speaker 1: be led. Ensure that in your wilderness experience, in your wilderness,
- 4:43Speaker 1: you are with the Holy Spirit. You are fine tuned,
- 4:46Speaker 1: and that is very easy for the believer. You are
- 4:48Speaker 1: fine tuned word to the leadings and the instructions and
- 4:51Speaker 1: weakness of the Holy Spirit within you. What one thing
- 4:55Speaker 1: that the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of God makes clear
- 4:57Speaker 1: for us. It's not the will of God. The will
- 4:59Speaker 1: of God is. The will of God is known. It
- 5:02Speaker 1: is the counsel of God. And that counsel of God
- 5:06Speaker 1: is specific for individuals to be able to transform, to
- 5:10Speaker 1: be able to stand out. Just like when Abraham went
- 5:14Speaker 1: to rescue Lot. The counsel of God stand there, show
- 5:17Speaker 1: the counsel of God's stand there. Many people as why
- 5:20Speaker 1: do it? But to stop stop questioning. It is the
- 5:23Speaker 1: counsel of God is what if you seek consigning your life? God,
- 5:27Speaker 1: what are you saying consigning my life? Daniel did not
- 5:31Speaker 1: need to wear an armor. He was He fulfilled the
- 5:35Speaker 1: counsel of God to him exactly. He had been fulfilling
- 5:40Speaker 1: the counsel of God to him. That's why as individuals,
- 5:44Speaker 1: as believers, we must recognize the counsel of God. To us,
- 5:48Speaker 1: it is what regulates our life, or it is what
- 5:50Speaker 1: gives us. It's what instructs us. It is what helps
- 5:53Speaker 1: us toward detached from seasons and embrace certain seasons in
- 5:58Speaker 1: our lives. Blessed is the man who workes not and
- 6:00Speaker 1: the cauncel of beon God. Can you see that now
- 6:03Speaker 1: so there is a working. Say what his delight is
- 6:06Speaker 1: in the Lord. That means the cancel you can get
- 6:09Speaker 1: canceled from what the world of God. Oh, it is
- 6:13Speaker 1: by virtue of this that you can be able to
- 6:15Speaker 1: rightly divide the world and know when to say. He
- 6:18Speaker 1: shall give his angels charge over me. I shall tread
- 6:21Speaker 1: upon lions, and the young lion and the dragon shall
- 6:24Speaker 1: like trample under my feet. It is by virtue of
- 6:27Speaker 1: this that you know that He has delivered me from
- 6:29Speaker 1: the strivings of the people. The Lord has made me
- 6:31Speaker 1: head over the hidden. It is by this you will
- 6:34Speaker 1: know that what the hiddens that rage, the Lord has
- 6:36Speaker 1: set me over them. It is by virtue of this
- 6:39Speaker 1: that you know that the Lord said, onto my Lord,
- 6:41Speaker 1: sit down at my right until I make the enemies.
- 6:43Speaker 1: The fuse to the Lord is sending the road of
- 6:46Speaker 1: my two rule in the midst of my enemies. It
- 6:49Speaker 1: is by virtue of the world of God in your
- 6:52Speaker 1: heart that you get. You receive cancel, per seizing, per encounters,
- 6:56Speaker 1: passing the rules, past circumstances, avails itself in your life.
- 7:03Speaker 1: There is grace, or there is grace in the wilderness.
- 7:05Speaker 1: So it is how to obtain it. He Bruce Shtartter
- 7:07Speaker 1: for reading. You will need tocome boldly by virtue of
- 7:11Speaker 1: the spirit, by virtue of the leading of the spirit,
- 7:13Speaker 1: knowing that you are going to obtain This is the
- 7:15Speaker 1: Troe not You have to understand though, you have to
- 7:17Speaker 1: understand the sovereignty of God. You have to understand that
- 7:20Speaker 1: that the reason why you can call it a throne
- 7:23Speaker 1: of grace is because blood was shed, Jesus died. So
- 7:27Speaker 1: by virtue of that you have the boldness of the spirit,
- 7:30Speaker 1: and is by virtue of seekingness. That's why because I
- 7:33Speaker 1: would arise and have messy upon Zion for the time
- 7:35Speaker 1: to favor faithorul is talking about grace. Help will you
- 7:39Speaker 1: will find help? You will find help with this understanding

- 7:53Speaker 1: The more we will dwell on this. But understand that
- 7:56Speaker 1: grace can be found. And if you do not know
- 7:59Speaker 1: that grace can be found in the wilderness, you can
- 8:02Speaker 1: be in the wilderness experience throughout your life. You need
- 8:07Speaker 1: you need to understand. Your eyes needs to That's why
- 8:10Speaker 1: the Bible says efficients chapter one there's seven things says.
- 8:14Speaker 1: I'm praying for you that what the Lord will grant
- 8:17Speaker 1: you to speak of revelation and the not you, that
- 8:19Speaker 1: the eyes of your understanding will be enlightened, that you
- 8:23Speaker 1: will know what is the hope. There is a hope, yes, exactly.
- 8:30Speaker 1: Remember the story of Abraham and Sarah their handmade Hey guy,
- 8:35Speaker 1: when they let her go, he kaya, do you know
- 8:39Speaker 1: that she found help in the wilderness. If such a
- 8:42Speaker 1: woman can find help in the will, look, let's real.
- 8:45Speaker 1: Genese Shat assistain Genesis chat assistained. Reading from the CIS.
- 8:48Speaker 1: He says, but but Abram said on Sarah, behold that
- 8:51Speaker 1: I had made this, and I han't do whatever you
- 8:54Speaker 1: like to her. You and Sarah dealt her, live with her,
- 8:57Speaker 1: and she fled. Do you understand this? She fled? That
- 9:01Speaker 1: means her life was as stick. See what happened very seven,
- 9:05Speaker 1: And the Angel of the Lord found her by a
- 9:09Speaker 1: fountain of water in the wilderness. Not wanting here from
- 9:14Speaker 1: this story. God is a god of covenant. Inasmuch as
- 9:18Speaker 1: he guy had moved with Ishmael, the fact that it
- 9:23Speaker 1: was an abraham seed Abraham's hair, the covenant followed. Suit
- 9:28Speaker 1: followed through that seed was multiplied. Now Hebrews eight, verse six,
- 9:33Speaker 1: he says, but now had he obtained a more excellent
- 9:37Speaker 1: ministry by how much? Remember what we said about ministry
- 9:40Speaker 1: by how much? What? Also, he is the mediator of
- 9:44Speaker 1: a better covenant, Remember what covenant? That means, this covenant,
- 9:49Speaker 1: as long as we entered this covenant, would find help
- 9:52Speaker 1: in the sost fircially realized that you are a covenant,
- 9:56Speaker 1: a child, you are in the Covenant of Christ. It
- 9:58Speaker 1: is once you begin to have this reality that you
- 10:01Speaker 1: begin to work in the mindset and understanding of the covenant.
- 10:04Speaker 1: Because by virtue, that's what the spirit comes to establish.
- 10:07Speaker 1: That mindset of the covenant. That means the reason why
- 10:10Speaker 1: you can be led by the spirit of God is
- 10:12Speaker 1: because you know that you are a covenanted child to
- 10:16Speaker 1: That is why we have received the eternal spirit. So
- 10:20Speaker 1: if the consciousness that he was working verselm. He says,
- 10:22Speaker 1: the first covenant was forty for finding fault with those
- 10:25Speaker 1: with them. He says, what the Lord, when I will
- 10:29Speaker 1: make the Lord makes a new covenant, because that's his
- 10:33Speaker 1: best night that are not according to the covenant that
- 10:36Speaker 1: he made without faust that he's going to make. What now,
- 10:38Speaker 1: this is how he intends to fulfill this. Look at it.
- 10:42Speaker 1: He said, for this covenant I will make, I will
- 10:44Speaker 1: write my Lord in this covenance the expression how you
- 10:47Speaker 1: will know is that these people will in your hearts,
- 10:50Speaker 1: my world, my counsel will be written. Let's say this
- 10:53Speaker 1: is a man that works on from the counsel of
