Latest / Apostle Joshua Selman / ACTIVATING DIVINE POSSIBILITIES
Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: I believe that God is going to bless us with
- 0:04Speaker 1: this word, and it's my desire that our heart to
- 0:06Speaker 1: be opened to bless us.
- 0:08Speaker 2: You know, we live in times now when.
- 0:12Speaker 1: Several people are perplexed, several people are discouraged. The pandemic
- 0:17Speaker 1: has come to complicate matters, and many people are asking God,
- 0:22Speaker 1: where are you and just trying to get direction for
- 0:25Speaker 1: the next level of their lives. And so this I
- 0:28Speaker 1: believe is coming very handy and providing.
- 0:31Speaker 2: For us supernatural solutions.
- 0:33Speaker 1: I believe that when God allows conferences like this to happen,
- 0:37Speaker 1: it is because He seeks to step in and bless
- 0:40Speaker 1: our hearts. So, wherever you are, whether you're in the
- 0:43Speaker 1: church or at home, get your Bibles, get your note pads,
- 0:47Speaker 1: your iPads, whatever it is that you will use, and
- 0:50Speaker 1: let's get to study the scripture. Let's pray. Father, we
- 0:54Speaker 1: bless you for the privilege to bring the world of
- 0:56Speaker 1: God to New Heritage Baptist Church. Even at so time,
- 1:01Speaker 1: I thank you and I honor you for the opportunity
- 1:03Speaker 1: that you have provided. The Bible declares that the entrance
- 1:06Speaker 1: of your word gives life and even understanding to the simple.
- 1:10Speaker 1: It gives light, It gives understanding to the simple Lord.
- 1:13Speaker 1: We humble ourselves and we ask that your word will
- 1:16Speaker 1: just come like fire, come and give us direction, lighten
- 1:21Speaker 1: our parts of God. In the name of Jesus, I
- 1:23Speaker 1: pray for every member of the New Heritage Baptist Church,
- 1:28Speaker 1: gathered in the local church and scattered all across the
- 1:31Speaker 1: nations of the earth. I ask that the word of
- 1:34Speaker 1: God will come like fire and bless everyone. We're open
- 1:38Speaker 1: to receive your truth and will be blessed by it,
- 1:40Speaker 1: in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen and Amen. Now
- 1:44Speaker 1: I'm teaching along the team activating divine possibilities, and I
- 1:49Speaker 1: believe that the Kingdom, like I would always teach, is
- 1:53Speaker 1: a compendium of limitless possibilities. Let's turn first and foremost
- 1:57Speaker 1: to look chapter one. Look chapter one and verse status seven.
- 2:01Speaker 1: Look chapter one and verse thirty seven. The Bible says
- 2:05Speaker 1: there says.
- 2:06Speaker 2: Four with God, nothing shall be impossible.
- 2:11Speaker 1: Very very instructive statement.
- 2:13Speaker 2: For with God, nothing shall be impossible.
- 2:17Speaker 1: That means without God, outside of God, outside of his contribution,
- 2:21Speaker 1: there are many things that may not be possible. And
- 2:24Speaker 1: this is already a message for someone because respectfully speaking,
- 2:28Speaker 1: we live in a generation and a context that for
- 2:32Speaker 1: some reason, because of the advancement in technology, advancement in science,
- 2:38Speaker 1: and which has been very profitable, sometimes we tend to
- 2:42Speaker 1: just push God out or take God as an extra luggage,
- 2:47Speaker 1: you know. But the Bible clearly tells us here that
- 2:49Speaker 1: for with God nothing shall be impossible. That means, if
- 2:53Speaker 1: we want to activate possibilities in our lives, it is
- 2:57Speaker 1: imperative that God becomes the principal factor in our lives.
- 3:03Speaker 2: Prays the name of the Lord, very very important.
- 3:07Speaker 1: The Bible tells us in Daniel chapter eleven, Daniel chapter eleven.
- 3:11Speaker 1: Let's go to verse thirty two Daniel eleven. The big
- 3:17Speaker 1: part is my part of emphasis. But I'll read everything
- 3:20Speaker 1: he said, and such us do wickedly against the covenan,
- 3:24Speaker 1: shall he corrupt by flatterys? But the people that do
- 3:28Speaker 1: know their God, it says, they shall be strong, and
- 3:33Speaker 1: they shall do exploit They shall be strong and they
- 3:36Speaker 1: shall do exploits.
- 3:38Speaker 2: I want to share.
- 3:41Speaker 1: With us the principles that govern results, because we're talking
- 3:46Speaker 1: about activating possibilities in our lives, and I have taught it.
- 3:51Speaker 1: Maybe just reiterate I've taught it again and again that
- 3:55Speaker 1: results are not the reason why we speak God. We
- 3:58Speaker 1: do not love him and serve him and seek him
- 4:01Speaker 1: just because we want results. Finances may be children, prosperity,
- 4:05Speaker 1: advancement in career. These things are very important, But the
- 4:09Speaker 1: principle reason why we serve God is because we love him.
- 4:12Speaker 1: It's an honor for us to serve him, and he
- 4:15Speaker 1: remains an honor. So it's important that as we explore
- 4:18Speaker 1: this sensitive topic, I just make it plain that the
- 4:22Speaker 1: pursuit of God has nothing to do with what he
- 4:24Speaker 1: will give us.
- 4:26Speaker 2: It is our response to his love.
- 4:29Speaker 1: We seek him because we passionately love him, and if
- 4:32Speaker 1: we do not get this right, then every other thing
- 4:35Speaker 1: will be wrong.
- 4:35Speaker 2: It will be built on a wrong foundation.
- 4:38Speaker 1: However, the Bible also lets us know that God is
- 4:42Speaker 1: benevolent enough to pay attention to our needs, that whilst
- 4:47Speaker 1: we serve him sincerely, he desires that our lives become.
- 4:51Speaker 2: Reflections of his love.
- 4:53Speaker 1: Because the very character of love, according to John three sixteen,
- 4:57Speaker 1: is that it gives for God so love the world
- 5:00Speaker 1: that he gave. So every time there is genuine love,
- 5:03Speaker 1: there is giving, He will let us experience his fullness.
- 5:07Speaker 1: And then the Bible also tells us that we have
- 5:10Speaker 1: been made to be partakers of His divine nature. And
- 5:14Speaker 1: if that is true, then there should be experience He's
- 5:17Speaker 1: captured in our lives that attest to the fact that
- 5:20Speaker 1: we fully are, in experience, partakers of His divine nature. So,
- 5:24Speaker 1: whether they come as prosperity, they come as sealing, they
- 5:27Speaker 1: come as speed, they come as restoration, every act of
- 5:30Speaker 1: God manifested in the life of the believer, these things
- 5:34Speaker 1: are tokens.
- 5:34Speaker 2: Of His love. They buttress on the fact that He
- 5:38Speaker 2: loves us. And so I believe.
- 5:41Speaker 1: That God wants to prosperse by the grace of God.
- 5:45Speaker 1: I am very outspoken about the whole counsel of God.
- 5:49Speaker 1: I believe that the believer's experience is fullest when we
- 5:53Speaker 1: open up to all the dimensions that are captured in God.
- 5:58Speaker 2: We shouldn't just.
- 5:59Speaker 1: Embrace the love of God and then negate all that
- 6:03Speaker 1: dimensions in the dealings of God that can profit us
- 6:06Speaker 1: praise the Lord. So we're going to be examining some
- 6:09Speaker 1: of the principles that really help us govern results. Because
- 6:13Speaker 1: when we talk about possibilities and exploits in the Kingdom,
- 6:16Speaker 1: we've established the fact that God.
- 6:18Speaker 2: Himself is willing to give this to us. In fact,
- 6:21Speaker 2: let's look.
- 6:21Speaker 1: At Romance Chapter five, Romance chapter five and verse eleven.
- 6:26Speaker 1: Romance five and verse eleven seventeen. I meant to say, Romance, Fife,
- 6:33Speaker 1: please give us.
- 6:33Speaker 2: Verse seventeen.
- 6:34Speaker 1: It says, for if by one man of friends, Paul
- 6:40Speaker 1: is teaching the church in Rome, now death reigned by
- 6:44Speaker 1: one is said much more, they which receive the abundance
- 6:49Speaker 1: of grace and off or which is the gift of righteousness,
- 6:54Speaker 1: shall reign in life by one Jesus Christ.
- 6:58Speaker 2: So the Bible tells us the very clearly.
- 7:00Speaker 1: Here that because we have received the abundance of grace,
- 7:04Speaker 1: which reflects as the gift of righteousness, and by it,
- 7:07Speaker 1: he says, we reign in life. Revelations chapter five and
- 7:11Speaker 1: verse ten tells us very clearly John was caught in
- 7:14Speaker 1: the isle of Patmos, and when he heard the worship
- 7:17Speaker 1: that was going on in heaven, the Bible says, and
- 7:19Speaker 1: has made us onto our God, kings and priests. And
- 7:23Speaker 1: he says, we shall reign on the earth. So the
- 7:27Speaker 1: ethicide jurisdiction of dominion, and it is the will of
- 7:30Speaker 1: God that we reign. We work in dominion, we work
- 7:33Speaker 1: in power. But these things happen by principles. Again, I
- 7:38Speaker 1: will go back to a scripture that has become an
- 7:40Speaker 1: anthem to my life Psalms eighty two, Psalms eighty two.
- 7:47Speaker 2: And we begin to read from verse five. It says
- 7:52Speaker 2: they know not.
- 7:54Speaker 1: So the pami ist is now talking, telling us why
- 7:57Speaker 1: in spite of the substitutionary Star of Christ, in spite
- 8:02Speaker 1: of all the provisions that have been made for the believer,
- 8:05Speaker 1: why are we not able to maximize our lives are
- 8:08Speaker 1: destinies in Christ to the fullest. And he's attempting by
- 8:11Speaker 1: the spirit to profer solution. And he starts by addressing
- 8:15Speaker 1: the issue of ignorance.
- 8:16Speaker 2: He says, they know not.
- 8:19Speaker 1: Neither will they understand they walk on in darkness, he says,
- 8:23Speaker 1: and all the foundations of the earth are out of course.
- 8:26Speaker 1: Verse six says I have said we are gods, and
- 8:30Speaker 1: all of you are children of the most High.
- 8:32Speaker 2: Seven says, but you shall.
- 8:34Speaker 1: Die like mere men and fall like one of these princes.
- 8:37Speaker 1: Cocia lamented in chapter four and verse six. For here
- 8:41Speaker 1: chapter four and verse six, the prophet began to speak,
- 8:44Speaker 1: and he was speaking by the spirit, and he said,
- 8:46Speaker 1: my people, you know every time I read this scripture.
- 8:48Speaker 1: I am amazed that the first two words are my people,
- 8:51Speaker 1: not strangers, My people, those who are the object of
- 8:57Speaker 1: my love, the object of my spiritual investment. But then
- 9:00Speaker 1: it says they are destroyed for lack of knowledge. It
- 9:04Speaker 1: says because thou hast rejected knowledge, that means knowledge must
- 9:08Speaker 1: be accepted. Because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also
- 9:14Speaker 1: reject thee and thou shalt be no priest to me.
- 9:17Speaker 1: Seeing that thou hast forgotten the law of thy God,
- 9:21Speaker 1: I will also forget that children knowledge knowledge. Believer us,
- 9:25Speaker 1: please hear me.
- 9:27Speaker 2: The breach between.
- 9:30Speaker 1: The prophetic desire of God for our lives and their
- 9:33Speaker 1: experiential manifestation is knowledge. We need to understand that the
- 9:39Speaker 1: love of God, as powerful as it is, does not
- 9:42Speaker 1: automatic automatically guarantee the.
- 9:47Speaker 2: Manifestation of His word.
- 9:49Speaker 1: This is something almost emphasized I think as we say
- 9:52Speaker 1: it again, that the love of God does not automatically
- 9:55Speaker 1: guarantee that we will experience the fullness of everything that
- 9:59Speaker 1: He has in stought for us. We have a role
- 10:02Speaker 1: to engage through knowledge the keys of the Kingdom.
- 10:06Speaker 2: Matthew thirteen and verse eleven.
- 10:09Speaker 1: Jesus is teaching now, and he's introducing the disciples and
- 10:13Speaker 1: all who were under his teaching to a very powerful
- 10:18Speaker 1: kingdom concept. And he said, he answered, and said, onto them,
- 10:23Speaker 1: because it is given onto you, Joshua Slman to know
- 10:29Speaker 1: the mistraits of the Kingdom of Heaven.
- 10:32Speaker 2: But to them, he says, it is not given.
- 10:36Speaker 1: That means that the mistress of the Kingdom represent the compendium,
- 10:41Speaker 1: the body of spiritual knowledge are located. For the victory
- 10:45Speaker 1: of the saints. The saints will not just rise in
- 10:49Speaker 1: light automatically. The Saints will not just rise to become
- 10:53Speaker 1: ambassadors in experience automatically.
- 10:56Speaker 2: Now, many believers are well meaning.
- 10:58Speaker 1: We go to church, we love God, we pray, we
- 11:00Speaker 1: even study the Bible respectfully speaking from a religious standpoint.
- 11:05Speaker 1: But many are unable to experience the fullness of God
- 11:09Speaker 1: because we do not understand.
- 11:10Speaker 2: The systemic nature of the operation of the Kingdom.
- 11:14Speaker 1: That it takes more than desire, It takes more than
- 11:17Speaker 1: a well meaning heart. In fact, you hear people say,
- 11:19Speaker 1: I'm a nice person, I have not offended anyone. Why
- 11:22Speaker 1: is life treated me this way? It does not just
- 11:25Speaker 1: happen because of sincerity of heart. We must be able
- 11:28Speaker 1: to understand the ways of God. Take not of that
- 11:31Speaker 1: the ways of God. The methodologists of the Kingdom, and
- 11:36Speaker 1: I call them mysteries that the mysteries of the Kingdom
- 11:40Speaker 1: represent the body of knowledge are located for the saints.
- 11:45Speaker 1: These are the keys of the Kingdom by which saints,
- 11:48Speaker 1: the Saints command dominion.
- 11:51Speaker 2: It's important that we understand.
- 11:52Speaker 1: These are the principles that produce results in the life
- 11:56Speaker 1: of a believers. So you can have two believers who
- 11:59Speaker 1: love God born again still with the Holy Spirit. But
- 12:02Speaker 1: the possibilities that they command do not necessarily depend on
- 12:05Speaker 1: the election of grace. With a few exceptions, it doesn't
- 12:08Speaker 1: necessarily depend on location, geography, and all of these things.
- 12:13Speaker 1: The moment we have access to the world of God
- 12:17Speaker 1: and then we engage it with understanding, fishing out of
- 12:21Speaker 1: it by the spirit, the keys are located for our victory.
- 12:25Speaker 1: Then when we are careful to engage this key, inevitably
- 12:29Speaker 1: our lives will begin to change to reflect what the
- 12:31Speaker 1: Word of God said. So we're going to examine. I
- 12:35Speaker 1: wur just take maybe one of the keys for this session.
- 12:38Speaker 1: They are the laws of the Kingdom, and I just
- 12:40Speaker 1: want to share with us the keys that will help
- 12:42Speaker 1: us to activate divine possibilities. The first that we look
- 12:47Speaker 1: at by the grace of God is called the law
- 12:49Speaker 1: of faith, the law of faith.
- 12:53Speaker 2: If you're writing place, write that down, the law of faith.
- 12:56Speaker 1: This is the first kingdom, key kingdom mystery that is
- 13:02Speaker 1: allocated for activating divine possibilities in the life of the believer.
- 13:07Speaker 2: State is very important.
- 13:09Speaker 1: Repeatedly through scripture, the Bible tells us that the just
- 13:13Speaker 1: shall live by faith, The just shall live by faith,
- 13:19Speaker 1: the just one who has been justified, but he will
- 13:22Speaker 1: still need the faith of God to live by numbers
- 13:25Speaker 1: twenty three places and verse nineteen. Numbers twenty three and
- 13:30Speaker 1: verse nineteen, very powerful scripture. It says God is not
- 13:35Speaker 1: a man. Now, this is a very powerful scripture. God
- 13:39Speaker 1: became a man, but God is not a man. Very
- 13:45Speaker 1: very important.
- 13:47Speaker 2: God is not a man that he should.
- 13:49Speaker 1: Lie, neither the son of man that he should repent.
- 13:56Speaker 2: That means he's that accurate. He does not need to
- 13:59Speaker 2: correct what he has said. Had he said and shall
- 14:04Speaker 2: he not do it?
- 14:05Speaker 1: Powerful scripture? Or had he spoken and shall he not
- 14:09Speaker 1: make good? Look at that scripture carefully. It says God
- 14:14Speaker 1: is not a man that he should lie. That means
- 14:18Speaker 1: you can trust him, not the son of Man, that
- 14:21Speaker 1: he should repent, He says, had he said, and shall
- 14:28Speaker 1: he not do it? Or had he spoken, and shall
- 14:31Speaker 1: he not make it good?
- 14:32Speaker 2: This is very powerful.
- 14:34Speaker 1: That means God is dependable. That means you can trust God.
- 14:38Speaker 1: You can take his word as currency and trans that
- 14:42Speaker 1: superior business in the realm of the spirit. Purchased him
- 14:46Speaker 1: for yourself possibilities that are not affordable by the strength
- 14:50Speaker 1: of the flesh. So when you find individuals commanding dimensions
- 14:56Speaker 1: of results.
- 14:56Speaker 2: That the currency they have used to purchase.
- 14:59Speaker 1: This possibility is the speakings of God. The Bible calls
- 15:02Speaker 1: it the logos the world of God. John one, verse
- 15:06Speaker 1: one says, in the beginning, what's the world? The logos
- 15:11Speaker 1: of God? It says, and the world what's with God?
- 15:14Speaker 1: And the word was God? But two says the same,
- 15:19Speaker 1: what was in the beginning with God? That's three says
- 15:22Speaker 1: all things, all things new heritage, Baptist Church, all things, finance,
- 15:28Speaker 1: all things, children, all things, restoration, all things, the breakthrough
- 15:34Speaker 1: that you need, all things the career that you need.
- 15:37Speaker 1: It says, all things were made manufactured.
- 15:41Speaker 2: So understand where all things come from.
- 15:43Speaker 1: The possibilities that we are trying to talk about in
- 15:46Speaker 1: this conference are possibilities that already exist in the world.
- 15:53Speaker 2: They are only manifested in our lives. They're not manifested
- 15:57Speaker 2: in heaven.
- 15:58Speaker 1: These are realities that already exists, our finances, our jobs.
- 16:02Speaker 2: So what we call a.
- 16:04Speaker 1: Miracle in the ethrealm is simply a system of transfer
- 16:07Speaker 1: from the realm of the city that that reality is
- 16:10Speaker 1: already in existence.
- 16:12Speaker 2: Very powerful.
- 16:13Speaker 1: So for the woman who is trusting God for the
- 16:15Speaker 1: foot of the womb, the child is.
- 16:17Speaker 2: Not going to jump and just manifest. It's already a
- 16:19Speaker 2: reality waiting to be transported.
- 16:21Speaker 1: For one who is trusting God for increasing finances, trusting
- 16:25Speaker 1: God for healing, trusting God for breakthrough and.
- 16:27Speaker 2: Favor, these things all things were made by Him. We're
- 16:31Speaker 2: dealing with a lot of faith. Now.
- 16:33Speaker 1: We cannot talk about faith until we understand the operation
- 16:36Speaker 1: of the world of God. All things, not some things.
- 16:39Speaker 1: All things were made by Him. So my tomorrow is
- 16:43Speaker 1: already in the world. It's not going to come by
- 16:45Speaker 1: the chronos the passage of time. I rest in the
- 16:49Speaker 1: fact that my tomorrow is already made. This is the
- 16:54Speaker 1: day that the Lord has made, not will make, has
- 16:57Speaker 1: made is.
- 16:59Speaker 2: New to me, but not new to him.
- 17:01Speaker 1: This is the day the Lord has made. So it
- 17:03Speaker 1: says all things were made by him. Then it says
- 17:07Speaker 1: without him, remember initial scripture. That means outside of him
- 17:11Speaker 1: was not anything made that was made. Listen, believers. That means,
- 17:16Speaker 1: if you ever see anything manifest that is good, it
- 17:20Speaker 1: came as a derivative of not just scripture, the letter
- 17:24Speaker 1: logos that was printed by Zondervan or White take a house. No,
- 17:27Speaker 1: this is not what we're talking about. We mean the
- 17:29Speaker 1: speakings of God that came from the lists of the
- 17:32Speaker 1: logos of God himself.
- 17:35Speaker 2: All things, all things, all things.
- 17:38Speaker 1: If I were you are beginning to write a list
- 17:41Speaker 1: of whatever represents all things, so that I need to
- 17:44Speaker 1: convince myself all things, my lifting, all things, my exploits
- 17:49Speaker 1: in ministry, all things, my safety, even in the midst
- 17:52Speaker 1: of the pandemic, all things.
- 17:55Speaker 2: All things made by Him, all things.
- 17:58Speaker 1: Made not by Him, not delivered by him. If all
- 18:03Speaker 1: things were only delivered by him, then he is not God.
- 18:05Speaker 2: Whoever makes is God.
- 18:07Speaker 1: He says, I will lift talk my eyes to the
- 18:10Speaker 1: heel from whence commet my help. That he says, my
- 18:13Speaker 1: help commet from the Lord, the maker God is not
- 18:17Speaker 1: only a healer. God is not only a restorer. He
- 18:20Speaker 1: is a maker. And when you want to understand the
- 18:25Speaker 1: concept of making, you have to go to the kitchen.
- 18:29Speaker 1: When you tell someone make me bread or make me venison.
- 18:33Speaker 1: That means combined factors create something that was not their
- 18:37Speaker 1: manifest In that way, let us make man. Is God
- 18:42Speaker 1: made man? Can he not make any other thing? There's
- 18:45Speaker 1: zalit of his creation. The heavens and the earth were made.
- 18:49Speaker 1: Man was made, The bread that he eat was made.
- 18:52Speaker 1: There's the devil that oppress this.
- 18:54Speaker 2: Man was also made. There was nothing that was not made.
- 18:59Speaker 1: When you understand the making power of the world, doubt
- 19:04Speaker 1: leads you because for many of us, the challenge most
- 19:07Speaker 1: times is we know that the world of God can
- 19:10Speaker 1: deliver results, but we do not. We hope that the
- 19:13Speaker 1: world of God can only transport results from where it
- 19:16Speaker 1: has only already been made.
- 19:18Speaker 2: I give you an instance. If you are looking for
- 19:21Speaker 2: a job. It's easy to believe.
- 19:23Speaker 1: That I can get a job because you hurt gets
- 19:25Speaker 1: a vacancy physical vacancy somewhere. So your trust is not
- 19:29Speaker 1: that God should create space. Your trust is that God
- 19:32Speaker 1: should connect you. But God is saying, I'm not just
- 19:35Speaker 1: a connector to possibilities. I can make a way where
- 19:38Speaker 1: there is no way. That means it is not your
- 19:41Speaker 1: business whether the reality exists in the eccrem or not.
- 19:45Speaker 1: If it does not exist, I am everything. I can
- 19:47Speaker 1: make it door. I can provide whatever it is my
- 19:51Speaker 1: help comments from the Lord. Please, let's go back to
- 19:53Speaker 1: John one and verse three, very instructive scripture.
- 19:57Speaker 2: All things we're dealing with love of faith.
- 20:00Speaker 1: Now that faith is predicated upon a revelation. If faith
- 20:05Speaker 1: is not just action, faith is not just speaking. You see,
- 20:08Speaker 1: the mistake we make in the Body of Christ is
- 20:10Speaker 1: that we always like to act alone. We always like
- 20:13Speaker 1: to speak alone. The foundation of faith is a revelation,
- 20:17Speaker 1: conviction that stems upon the fact that God is almighty
- 20:23Speaker 1: and that God can be trusted. That's why I took
- 20:26Speaker 1: that scripture and numbers. God cleared the air over his
- 20:29Speaker 1: integrity once and for all, so that we are.
- 20:32Speaker 2: Not in doubt.
- 20:32Speaker 1: Because it's many times seta and will lie to us.
- 20:35Speaker 1: You will use our situations to paint God wrong. And
- 20:38Speaker 1: the moment you are in doubt of God's Father, who
- 20:41Speaker 1: had that faithfulness, you cannot trust him. You see if
- 20:45Speaker 1: I tell you to come and collect a thousand dollars
- 20:49Speaker 1: or a thousand mira from me, you will have to
- 20:51Speaker 1: trust whether I have the integrity enough to do that
- 20:55Speaker 1: for you. If you are in doubt of that integrity,
- 20:57Speaker 1: you will also be in doubt of your fortitude for
- 21:00Speaker 1: so this is very important. All things were made by Him.
- 21:05Speaker 1: So if God tells me Joshua Hellman, you are blessed,
- 21:08Speaker 1: you will be the head and not the tail. I
- 21:10Speaker 1: don't need to find out where the head is. I
- 21:12Speaker 1: don't need to find out how I will get there.
- 21:14Speaker 1: My first assignment is to believe that the speaker of
- 21:17Speaker 1: this truth has the power to make all things. All
- 21:22Speaker 1: things were made by him, and without him was not
- 21:26Speaker 1: anything made that was made.
- 21:29Speaker 2: So everything is made. Results are made, breakthroughs are made,
- 21:34Speaker 2: listings are made, possibilities are made. Alle lujah. So this
- 21:39Speaker 2: is very important. If you're writing, I want you to
- 21:43Speaker 2: write this down.
- 21:44Speaker 1: Number one is you will have to take risks of
- 21:50Speaker 1: faith to.
- 21:51Speaker 2: Succeed in life. It is a law. We live in
- 21:55Speaker 2: a world where we are very risk adverts. We do
- 21:59Speaker 2: not want to fail.
- 21:59Speaker 1: We hate failure, we hate being proported as failures, and
- 22:04Speaker 1: so we are very we're excessively cheerful to wave fault.
- 22:09Speaker 1: It is the reason why we cannot do many things.
- 22:11Speaker 1: There are people today who cannot start businesses because they
- 22:14Speaker 1: are afraid of failure. They were in a world of guarantees.
- 22:17Speaker 1: We're obsessed with guarantees. The bank will not give you loans,
- 22:22Speaker 1: for instance, until they have a system of guarantee. Most
- 22:25Speaker 1: people will one. Give me a guarantee that I will
- 22:28Speaker 1: arrive safely from my trip. Give me a guarantee that
- 22:31Speaker 1: the journey I'm about to start is not a risky one.
- 22:35Speaker 1: The risk that you will have to take in life
- 22:38Speaker 1: is the risk of faith. The fearful, I wrote down here,
- 22:44Speaker 1: and the cowardly never become great. Those who are fearfull
- 22:49Speaker 1: in life. Those who are cowardly never become great. In fact,
- 22:52Speaker 1: when you read josh Watchapter one, it was on the
- 22:56Speaker 1: first seven verses of josh Watchapter one was the not
- 23:00Speaker 1: exorting Joshua. He said, Moses, my servant is dead. Then
- 23:04Speaker 1: he began to admonish Joshua. Joshua, I know that you
- 23:07Speaker 1: have never threaded.
- 23:08Speaker 2: This part before. You have never led it.
- 23:10Speaker 1: Stiff next, and it's stubborn people like this, I know
- 23:13Speaker 1: that there are many things that you anticipate that will
- 23:16Speaker 1: happen to you. But then he told him be strong
- 23:19Speaker 1: and of good courage. The fearful, the cowardly never become great.
- 23:31Speaker 1: It will take us trust in God even at times
- 23:35Speaker 1: like this. There are people who have lost jobs as
- 23:37Speaker 1: a result of the pandemic. There are people who have
- 23:40Speaker 1: lost opportunities. Businesses have foiled up, Several things have gone
- 23:44Speaker 1: wrong in the lives of people. And right now people
- 23:46Speaker 1: are perplexed. They're full of fear. They're wondering what next.
- 23:50Speaker 1: They are already propheties that you know, insinuate disasters of
- 23:55Speaker 1: some sort coming in the future, and people are afraid.
- 24:00Speaker 1: But it says only without stronger and very courageous.
- 24:05Speaker 2: So the law of faith mandates that will be prepared
- 24:09Speaker 2: to take risks, to take risks in life.
- 24:13Speaker 1: John eleven and verse forty. Shallah call Sabranda Gabazus theater.
- 24:21Speaker 1: Jesus said to her, say it, I'm not wanto thee
- 24:25Speaker 1: that if thou wouldst believe, believe, agree with me, take
- 24:31Speaker 1: me serious, take me as true. Thou shouldest see the
- 24:37Speaker 1: glory of God. The glory of God is the full
- 24:40Speaker 1: weight of everything that makes him God, the entire span
- 24:43Speaker 1: of the.
- 24:44Speaker 2: Essence of who he is.
- 24:46Speaker 1: His goodness is love, his power that if you want
- 24:49Speaker 1: to see the favor, the goodness, the power, the glory
- 24:52Speaker 1: of God, you will have to believe. You have to
- 24:55Speaker 1: take God seriously. You have to pledge your life and say, Lord,
- 24:59Speaker 1: I believe you. I understand what you have said. So
- 25:04Speaker 1: let me walk you through the equation of faith. You
- 25:07Speaker 1: heritage Baptist Church, just to open us up to the
- 25:11Speaker 1: character of faith and the way that faith works. And
- 25:15Speaker 1: there is no other person who will guide us in
- 25:19Speaker 1: understanding the subject of faith like the patriarch Abraham himself.
- 25:25Speaker 1: It is very very important. I think it was Isaiah
- 25:28Speaker 1: fifty one. Let me turn there myself, Isaiah fifty one,
- 25:34Speaker 1: who read.
- 25:35Speaker 2: From verse one and two.
- 25:38Speaker 1: Isaiah fifty one, we're discussing the law of faith. Now,
- 25:44Speaker 1: the law of faith.
- 25:45Speaker 2: Happen to me. All ye that follow after righteousness, ye
- 25:50Speaker 2: that seek the Lord.
- 25:52Speaker 1: Look onto the rock whence you were hewn, and to
- 25:56Speaker 1: the whole of the pit whence you were dead. Two
- 26:02Speaker 1: look onto Abraham, your father.
- 26:06Speaker 2: Now let me explain this scripture.
- 26:08Speaker 1: Look onto means observe, go back like his students studying
- 26:12Speaker 1: the notes of a lecturer. The Bible says, the things
- 26:15Speaker 1: that are written at four time, he says, they are
- 26:17Speaker 1: for our learning, so.
- 26:19Speaker 2: That we through the comfort of scripture, my fine hope.
- 26:22Speaker 1: So the Bible says, on the tody Abraham your father,
- 26:25Speaker 1: the word Father, there is the originator of this system.
- 26:29Speaker 1: I'm about to deal with faith, and I have used
- 26:32Speaker 1: a man to persphony fidy system.
- 26:36Speaker 2: On the tody Abraham your father, he says.
- 26:39Speaker 1: And on to Sarah that bear you, it says, for
- 26:42Speaker 1: I called him a load, and I blessed him, and
- 26:45Speaker 1: I increase him. That means follow his past. But resting
- 26:49Speaker 1: on this Pauline he will Chapter six and verse fifteen
- 26:52Speaker 1: tells us to follow them.
- 26:54Speaker 2: He says that them here are.
- 26:57Speaker 1: Abraham your father, Sarah your mother, and all who have
- 27:01Speaker 1: followed them.
- 27:02Speaker 2: He says, okay.
- 27:04Speaker 1: He says, so after he had patiently and gord Abraham,
- 27:09Speaker 1: now he oppained the promise, obtained the promise, he obtained it.
- 27:16Speaker 1: So I went to just look very quickly how God
- 27:20Speaker 1: started with Abraham. Let's go to Genesis chapter twelve.
- 27:23Speaker 2: Very quickly.
- 27:25Speaker 1: I trust that the Lord is blessing you with this
- 27:28Speaker 1: moment of profound exposition Genesis, chapter twelve.
- 27:33Speaker 2: Now the Lord staid, onto Abraham. Now notice this.
- 27:36Speaker 1: Was an idol worshiper who came from awe of the Childians.
- 27:40Speaker 1: And now I'm theologically speaking, you would when you read
- 27:45Speaker 1: from verse eleven, you will find out that the first
- 27:48Speaker 1: person God spoke to was not Abraham.
- 27:51Speaker 2: The first person God spoke to was Terror, his father.
- 27:55Speaker 1: God called the Father, and for some reason things did
- 27:59Speaker 1: not work out for him.
- 27:59Speaker 2: He did not seem to comply. And now we get
- 28:02Speaker 2: to twelve verse one, and the Lord said, onto.
- 28:05Speaker 1: Abraham, get thee out of thy country, and from thy kildred,
- 28:11Speaker 1: and from thy father's house onto a land that I
- 28:15Speaker 1: will show you. Now, this here, I don't know about you,
- 28:18Speaker 1: but this for me is the spelling of risk. Get
- 28:24Speaker 1: out verse one again, Please get out of your country,
- 28:29Speaker 1: number one. And then when you are in your country,
- 28:32Speaker 1: don't keep in touch with your kildred. And then number three,
- 28:37Speaker 1: leave your father's house. I don't know the name of
- 28:40Speaker 1: whoever obeys this kind of instruction, but when you leave
- 28:43Speaker 1: your relatives, when you leave your family both spiritual and physical,
- 28:47Speaker 1: when you leave your country, you are almost a fugitive.
- 28:50Speaker 2: And a vagabond.
- 28:51Speaker 1: And now he says, leave to a land no name
- 28:55Speaker 1: that I will show you. Lord, how do I know
- 28:57Speaker 1: when I arrive there? What is the of that land?
- 29:01Speaker 1: At least give me a clue, and if.
- 29:05Speaker 2: You willbey me. Verse two, this is what follows. I will.
- 29:09Speaker 1: When he was saying this, it was not yet a
- 29:11Speaker 1: reality in Abraham's life.
- 29:13Speaker 2: I will make of THEE a great nation.
- 29:16Speaker 1: Hallelujah. I will bless THEE. I will make thy name great.
- 29:21Speaker 1: I wish I had time for us to work this.
- 29:24Speaker 1: That you are not great until your name is also great.
- 29:28Speaker 1: It says, O, Lord, our God, how excellent is your name?
- 29:34Speaker 1: And thou shalt be a blessing. Verse three it says,
- 29:38Speaker 1: I will bless them that bless THEE, and curse him.
- 29:42Speaker 2: That cursed THEE.
- 29:44Speaker 1: And in THEE shall all families, all the families of the.
- 29:48Speaker 2: Earth be blessed, be blessed.
- 29:52Speaker 1: Janesis Chapter fifteen Goodness.
- 29:56Speaker 2: Genesis chapter fifteen.
- 30:01Speaker 1: We're exploring the patriarch Abraham as a way and a
- 30:05Speaker 1: guide to understand the law of faith. We're going to
- 30:10Speaker 1: read the first sixth verses Genesis fifteen. After these things,
- 30:14Speaker 1: he said, the word of the Lord came onto Abraham
- 30:18Speaker 1: in a vision.
- 30:18Speaker 2: Remember, faith always starts with the word of the Lord.
- 30:22Speaker 2: Faith does not just start with our pen alone.
- 30:25Speaker 1: Faith does not just start with the awareness of our limitations.
- 30:28Speaker 2: Faith the process of faith. That's when the word of
- 30:31Speaker 2: the Lord comes.
- 30:31Speaker 1: It says, the word of the Lord came onto Abram
- 30:34Speaker 1: in a vision, saying, here not Abram, I am thy
- 30:39Speaker 1: shield and thy exceeding great reward. Verse two, it says,
- 30:44Speaker 1: and Abraham said, Lord God, what will thou give me?
- 30:48Speaker 1: Seeing that I go childless? So this is a man
- 30:51Speaker 1: trusting God for a child, trusting God, for an opportunity
- 30:56Speaker 1: that produces contunity. And the seam of my house is
- 31:01Speaker 1: this Aliaza of Damascus. And Abram said, behold to me,
- 31:07Speaker 1: thou hast not given no seed.
- 31:11Speaker 2: To me.
- 31:12Speaker 1: Thou hast given no capital to me. Thou hast given
- 31:16Speaker 1: no destiny helper to me. Thou hast not provided what
- 31:20Speaker 1: becomes an advantage, a basis for security of my tomorrow.
- 31:24Speaker 2: It says, And lo, one born in my house is
- 31:27Speaker 2: mine heir.
- 31:28Speaker 1: That means no one within I cannot boast of, saying
- 31:31Speaker 1: I have someone who can.
- 31:32Speaker 2: Represent my tomorrow Verse four.
- 31:36Speaker 1: And behold the word of the Lord came onto him, saying,
- 31:40Speaker 1: this shall not be thy heir.
- 31:42Speaker 2: This is a prophetic word already for someone.
- 31:45Speaker 1: Someone is already beginning to create alternatives to say, Lord,
- 31:48Speaker 1: it looks like you will not do what you have said,
- 31:51Speaker 1: so maybe let me begin to consider lesser alternatives than God.
- 31:54Speaker 1: He said, No, what I said to you five years ago,
- 31:57Speaker 1: I'm still saying it now. I've not changed my mind.
- 32:00Speaker 1: I said I will bless you. Have not changed my mind.
- 32:03Speaker 1: I said I will lift you. Have not changed my mind.
- 32:05Speaker 1: It says this shall not be your heir. Look, how
- 32:08Speaker 1: Look how nice Abraham was understand what is happening. He
- 32:11Speaker 1: is saying, God, saying, for some reason, you have not
- 32:14Speaker 1: found me worthy.
- 32:15Speaker 2: Use somebody in my house at least to have a child.
- 32:20Speaker 1: Lord things it looks like I can never become blessed
- 32:23Speaker 1: by myself.
- 32:24Speaker 2: Bless somebody and make the person at least consider me.
- 32:27Speaker 1: And God said, no, that's which I told you that
- 32:29Speaker 1: you will be the voice in your family. That's which
- 32:33Speaker 1: I told you that you will be a man of God.
- 32:35Speaker 1: You will not just listen to the messages of other
- 32:37Speaker 1: men of God. Tomorrow someone will also be listening to
- 32:40Speaker 1: the counsel of God. Upon your lieds it says, this
- 32:43Speaker 1: shall not be thine heir, but that shall come forth
- 32:47Speaker 1: from thy own bowels shall be thy heir.
- 32:51Speaker 2: Very powerful.
- 32:53Speaker 1: I think please go back to us four right where
- 32:56Speaker 1: you eyed, one minute, if you can just say a word.
- 32:58Speaker 2: Of prayer and say, Lord, I believe you.
- 33:00Speaker 1: I'm sorry for attempting to want to create alternatives. You
- 33:04Speaker 1: told me I will prosper in Legos. I came to Legos.
- 33:07Speaker 1: You told me I should come to New Heritage Baptist Church.
- 33:10Speaker 1: But as it teks now, when in twenty twenty, and
- 33:13Speaker 1: it looks like this is August the eight months, and
- 33:17Speaker 1: it looks like nothing is already showing fourth in my life.
- 33:20Speaker 1: And I'm already giving you options to say, Lord, it
- 33:22Speaker 1: looks like you will not bless me. Someone needs to
- 33:25Speaker 1: pray and tell God in this conference my faith is
- 33:28Speaker 1: fired of Lord.
- 33:29Speaker 2: I returned back to that which you told me.
- 33:33Speaker 1: I believe you. I believe you. I believe you the
- 33:38Speaker 1: person who will bless me. You have told me that
- 33:40Speaker 1: my children will feed me. You have told me you
- 33:42Speaker 1: will not leave me in shame. But as it is,
- 33:45Speaker 1: none of my children have jobs. And it looks like
- 33:47Speaker 1: shame and reproaches all that I'm seeing, and I'm about
- 33:50Speaker 1: to even pray. I was about to pray that you
- 33:52Speaker 1: will use my neighbor, or you will use my relatives
- 33:55Speaker 1: to at least bless me.
- 33:56Speaker 2: But now you are speaking to me that, by the
- 33:58Speaker 2: law of faith, I must return back.
- 34:00Speaker 1: To believe you, that you are able, that you are able,
- 34:04Speaker 1: that it will come from me. I don't have to
- 34:07Speaker 1: outsource it from somewhere else, very very powerful, Thank you
- 34:13Speaker 1: Jesus Allelujah.
- 34:17Speaker 2: Verse five.
- 34:19Speaker 1: And he brought him forth abroad and said, look now
- 34:24Speaker 1: onto heaven, Abraham, now and tell the stars. Count the stars,
- 34:29Speaker 1: if thou be able to number them. And he said,
- 34:33Speaker 1: unto him, so shall die see be verse six the
- 34:37Speaker 1: character of faith. And he Abraham, who the Bible as
- 34:41Speaker 1: man dated that we understudy the Bible, says Abraham, believe God.
- 34:45Speaker 2: To believe means to perceive us true. To believe means to.
- 34:49Speaker 1: Agree that you are truthful, to agree to attest to.
- 34:53Speaker 2: Your integrity and to your ability. That's what it means.
- 34:56Speaker 2: To believe.
- 34:57Speaker 1: I am convicted number one about your integrity, and number two,
- 35:01Speaker 1: I am convicted about your ability. When you say you
- 35:05Speaker 1: believe a thing or you believe God. You are attesting
- 35:09Speaker 1: to two attributes. Number one integrity, number two ability. Please
- 35:14Speaker 1: understand this. We're dissecting faith. There can never be the
- 35:18Speaker 1: manifestation of faith when there is no conviction about integrity
- 35:23Speaker 1: and ability. Integrity is the quality of faithfulness, the quality
- 35:27Speaker 1: of truthfulness, that God is not a man, that he
- 35:31Speaker 1: should lie, not the son of man. So if God
- 35:34Speaker 1: says I will bless you, I will make your name great.
- 35:38Speaker 1: When you consider what he has said as true, that
- 35:41Speaker 1: means you have faith you believe his integrity. But when
- 35:45Speaker 1: you know that the world makes all things, you now
- 35:48Speaker 1: believe in his ability. All that believe in his ability.
- 35:52Speaker 1: God can do it, but they do not believe in
- 35:54Speaker 1: his integrity. Will God do it? So say, please listen, listen,
- 36:01Speaker 1: Please listen to me, People of God. When you want
- 36:05Speaker 1: to manifest faith, you must trust God through scripture to
- 36:09Speaker 1: have an encounter that produces conviction over God's integrity comes
- 36:18Speaker 1: from the word integer, sameness, on bendableness, faithfulness, trustworthiness, God's integrity,
- 36:27Speaker 1: and number two God's ability. God's ability integrity, he said it,
- 36:35Speaker 1: he can do it, he will do it.
- 36:40Speaker 2: Ability. It is within his.
- 36:43Speaker 1: Power to word of all the forces that can negiate
- 36:46Speaker 1: that word from manifesting.
- 36:49Speaker 2: This is very powerful. Pray again where you are seated
- 36:54Speaker 2: or watching or following.
- 36:56Speaker 1: And say, Lord, grant me grace. I know that something
- 36:59Speaker 1: is wrong with my trusting your ability. I have lived
- 37:02Speaker 1: in a world where people have failed me. People have
- 37:04Speaker 1: said one thing today and then turned to do the
- 37:07Speaker 1: other tomorrow. And because of that, I'm already beginning to
- 37:11Speaker 1: doubt the potency of God. You have spoken great things
- 37:15Speaker 1: concerning your zion, and now it's like my.
- 37:18Speaker 2: Faith is failing. But Lord, bring me back to that position.
- 37:21Speaker 1: Even in this conference and through this world where I
- 37:24Speaker 1: understand that your name is not only the mighty God.
- 37:28Speaker 1: You are not only else to die. You are also
- 37:30Speaker 1: faithful and true.
- 37:33Speaker 3: Faithful and true, faithful and true, faithful and true, faithful
- 37:40Speaker 3: and true, King of things, Lord of.
- 37:45Speaker 4: Lords, faithful, learn tu lamb of God, I King of case,
- 38:01Speaker 4: Lord of Lords, Say fool landry, lam of heir fi.
- 38:11Speaker 2: Ship Lam of God.
- 38:18Speaker 1: I you're the king of kings, Lord of lords.
- 38:27Speaker 2: You are say.
- 38:29Speaker 5: Food lundring, Lam of God.
- 38:34Speaker 1: I worship. John spoke about the rider upon the horse,
- 38:41Speaker 1: and he said he's name, He's safe, actual hateful act true.
- 38:48Speaker 2: But I know who I am busy, he says.
- 38:51Speaker 1: And I am passed with it, passed with it, regardless
- 38:56Speaker 1: of what I see, regardless of what I hear, I
- 39:00Speaker 1: have passed awaited Allelujah. Abraham believed God. He was convicted
- 39:16Speaker 1: about God's integrity and convicted about God's ability. Convicted about
- 39:24Speaker 1: God's integrity, convicted about God's ability.
- 39:28Speaker 2: Now, what's this?
- 39:31Speaker 1: The way faith works is that God was saying enough
- 39:37Speaker 1: to leave a companion of his deeds with men. It
- 39:40Speaker 1: would be wrong for God to just a big faily
- 39:44Speaker 1: ask us to trust him. No, you don't ask people
- 39:47Speaker 1: to trust you habituaarily.
- 39:48Speaker 2: No, No, no, you can. You can.
- 39:52Speaker 1: You can dare people to take the risks. But then
- 39:55Speaker 1: if you want people to trust you, you must be
- 39:58Speaker 1: able to give people a little compendium of what you
- 40:03Speaker 1: have done before. Who trust said you that you did
- 40:06Speaker 1: not fail? So Genesis to Revelation, the Loves of God
- 40:11Speaker 1: is a compendium of the dealings of God with people. Listen,
- 40:15Speaker 1: this Bible is full of several people. Let's go to
- 40:18Speaker 1: Hebrews eleven. We are about to cross examine whether this
- 40:24Speaker 1: God is worthy of our trust, whether this God has
- 40:30Speaker 1: the ability. Now, faith is process, the substance of things
- 40:37Speaker 1: hoped for, the evidence, the tangibility of the things, not saying.
- 40:42Speaker 1: It says, for by it the elders, whether they were
- 40:46Speaker 1: great men, patriots, men who lived before us, many of
- 40:51Speaker 1: them who under studying Abraham, many of them who work
- 40:55Speaker 1: with God, even before Abraham. The Bible says, they all
- 40:58Speaker 1: obtained a good report. Verse three, it says, through faith
- 41:02Speaker 1: we understand that the world were fraimed, startling point, that
- 41:06Speaker 1: the world were framed by the world of God. Here
- 41:08Speaker 1: it is again so that the things which are seen
- 41:12Speaker 1: were not made of the things which you appear.
- 41:14Speaker 2: Thus four, by faith.
- 41:17Speaker 1: The Bible says, Abel offered onto God a more excellent
- 41:20Speaker 1: sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained weakness. That he
- 41:24Speaker 1: was righteous God testifying of his gifts, and by it
- 41:28Speaker 1: he being dead yet speaking fast. By faith, the Bible says,
- 41:33Speaker 1: my God, Enoch was translated by faith, The business was
- 41:38Speaker 1: translated by faith. The ministry was translated, so that what
- 41:44Speaker 1: should that happen does not happen. By faith, it says.
- 41:47Speaker 1: And he was not from because God had translated him.
- 41:51Speaker 1: If God can translate it, man, he can't translate it.
- 41:54Speaker 6: Family.
- 41:54Speaker 1: He can't translated. Business he can translate. A condition is
- 41:58Speaker 1: set for before he trans translations. He had this testimony
- 42:02Speaker 1: that he please God sinks, it says, but without faith
- 42:07Speaker 1: it is impossible. We're talking of possibilities now the first
- 42:11Speaker 1: time in Hebrews, the Bible is talking of impossibility, that
- 42:14Speaker 1: it is impossible to please him for he that cometh
- 42:17Speaker 1: to God.
- 42:17Speaker 2: Here is the rule.
- 42:18Speaker 1: Now when you come to God, you must come believe
- 42:22Speaker 1: the number one that He is the Word.
- 42:25Speaker 2: He is there is, he exists, He is real. Then
- 42:28Speaker 2: number two, that He is the.
- 42:29Speaker 1: Rewarder of them that diligently seeks. Here he is the
- 42:37Speaker 1: reward of the men and women of God that seeks He.
- 42:41Speaker 1: He is the rewarder of those who need his hands
- 42:44Speaker 1: that seeks him. The law of faith. Now, every results
- 42:54Speaker 1: in the kingdom. Please understand this. Every result in the
- 42:59Speaker 1: Kingdom is governed by conditions. If you're writing right conditions
- 43:07Speaker 1: and underlying I'll tell you why. Many believers do not
- 43:10Speaker 1: see the outstretched arm of God, even though they keep
- 43:13Speaker 1: speaking and confessing. But the Bible is like a treasure
- 43:23Speaker 1: or a gold mind, a treasure place. The spirit of
- 43:31Speaker 1: God leads you to relevant scriptures, stories, parables. What is
- 43:39Speaker 1: generally speaking, this Bible contains three things. Understand this, I
- 43:44Speaker 1: want to break it down now. This Bible contains three things.
- 43:49Speaker 1: Number one, it contains promises. The Bible contains promises, the
- 43:57Speaker 1: things that God vowed that he would do. Number two,
- 44:01Speaker 1: the Bible contains processes. Number three, the Bible contains principles.
- 44:12Speaker 1: So every time I study the Bible, I am looking
- 44:15Speaker 1: for three things. One I am looking for principles. Two
- 44:20Speaker 1: I am looking for promises. Three I am looking for processes.
- 44:26Speaker 1: So when we read the Bible, we're not just reading
- 44:28Speaker 1: the Bible like a novel that we're reading just for
- 44:30Speaker 1: education and enlightenment alone. I am suchy, what has God
- 44:35Speaker 1: said concerning me? Jeremiah Painty nine vers eleven. I know
- 44:39Speaker 1: the thoughts that I think towards you just for self,
- 44:42Speaker 1: and said the Lord. I know the thoughts that I
- 44:44Speaker 1: think towards your new heritage Baptist Church sayer the Lord,
- 44:48Speaker 1: it says, they are thoughts of peace and not of evil,
- 44:51Speaker 1: to give you an expectant end. So I know that
- 44:55Speaker 1: God is thinking about me. That's the first information. It
- 44:58Speaker 1: is a blessing to know that God is thinking.
- 44:59Speaker 2: Of about me.
- 45:01Speaker 1: Then number two, it is good to know that whatever
- 45:04Speaker 1: is thinking are thoughts of peace. You see, there are
- 45:08Speaker 1: people who think about you, but they might not be
- 45:09Speaker 1: talks of peace. And he says, a terrorist, for instance,
- 45:13Speaker 1: can be thinking about the nation, and the talks are
- 45:15Speaker 1: not sorts of peace. He's thinking what to destroy. And
- 45:18Speaker 1: I'm rover can be thinking about the family, but the
- 45:20Speaker 1: talks are not talks of peace. So the Bible is
- 45:22Speaker 1: saying that God is thinking and his talks are.
- 45:25Speaker 2: Thoughts of peace and not of evil. To give you
- 45:28Speaker 2: an extent and end, so.
- 45:34Speaker 1: I begin to such by the spirit caras bakatariata open
- 45:38Speaker 1: down my eyes, that I may be old. One drows
- 45:41Speaker 1: things out of the law.
- 45:43Speaker 2: You see it.
- 45:44Speaker 1: So I need to find out the principle are located
- 45:47Speaker 1: for kingdom, wealth and the favor of God. I need
- 45:50Speaker 1: to find out the principle are located for excelling in ministry.
- 45:53Speaker 1: I need to find out the principle that are located
- 45:56Speaker 1: for raising children properly. I need to find out the
- 45:59Speaker 1: prince people for restoration of anything lost. I need to
- 46:03Speaker 1: find out the principle are located for dominion.
- 46:05Speaker 2: Upon the earth.
- 46:06Speaker 1: My assignment this is very carefully my assignment is to
- 46:11Speaker 1: know that every dimension of possibility the Kingdom is governed
- 46:15Speaker 1: by a discovery of the principles connected with it.
- 46:20Speaker 2: Wishing and hoping is another way to.
- 46:24Speaker 1: Endorse delay eternally, just wishing one.
- 46:28Speaker 2: Day God will bless me. One day I will be wealthy,
- 46:33Speaker 2: one day.
- 46:34Speaker 1: I will be a great man of God doing so
- 46:36Speaker 1: much for the kingdom. It's one that will to be
- 46:38Speaker 1: hopeful because hope make it not a shame, but hope
- 46:41Speaker 1: remaining as hope will only lead to frustration. It must
- 46:45Speaker 1: be backed up by actions of faith. Praise Lord. This
- 46:51Speaker 1: is very powerful. So the way we manifestrate in the
- 46:54Speaker 1: kingdom is number one. We become students of scripture and
- 46:58Speaker 1: students whose gears are in cling to the words of
- 47:01Speaker 1: the Lord. It says, my son, pay attention to my words.
- 47:05Speaker 1: Incline your ears to my sayings. It says, do not
- 47:08Speaker 1: let them depart from out of their mouths. Keep them
- 47:10Speaker 1: in the midst of your heart. That it says they
- 47:12Speaker 1: are like to those.
- 47:13Speaker 2: Who find them. A finder is also a sacher. You
- 47:18Speaker 2: have to such the scripture.
- 47:21Speaker 1: Many believers are lazy, and I'm trusting that by this
- 47:24Speaker 1: teaching God will conquer from us that in natural that
- 47:28Speaker 1: spiritual laziness that lacks they to stand up and such. Lord,
- 47:32Speaker 1: what have you said about my children? Lord, what have
- 47:35Speaker 1: you said about my life? What have you said about
- 47:38Speaker 1: my job?
- 47:39Speaker 2: Listen?
- 47:39Speaker 1: When God has not spoken about your situation, there is
- 47:42Speaker 1: no hope. He only comes when God seeks. Most times
- 47:50Speaker 1: we spend time discussing our problems with people who cannot
- 47:54Speaker 1: help us. It may be a boss in office. It
- 47:57Speaker 1: may be friends and relatives as well meaning as it
- 48:01Speaker 1: maybe family members. It may be all kinds of well wishers.
- 48:04Speaker 1: But I am proposing to you new heritage Bautist Church
- 48:07Speaker 1: and the Body of Christ and all the believers that
- 48:10Speaker 1: are following and will follow. Listen, the moment you find
- 48:15Speaker 1: out you're trusting God for dimensions of results in whatever area,
- 48:19Speaker 1: your first assignment is to go to God through his world.
- 48:24Speaker 1: And the Lord appeared to somewhere in Shiloh by his word.
- 48:29Speaker 1: God appears to people, not just by visionary and counter
- 48:32Speaker 1: said Lord. It appears to people by his world. The
- 48:36Speaker 1: Lord appeared to somewhere in Hilu by the word of
- 48:40Speaker 1: the Lord. By his word, you will hear in stricture
- 48:43Speaker 1: that on the fifth day of the six months of this,
- 48:46Speaker 1: the world of the Lord came. So I find out
- 48:51Speaker 1: God's worth concerning my health and wholeness. I find out
- 48:54Speaker 1: God's worth concerning my protection.
- 48:57Speaker 2: And let me challenge you.
- 48:58Speaker 1: It is very very important time born life for insus
- 49:02Speaker 1: God A scriptures that talk about healing God as, scriptures
- 49:06Speaker 1: that talk about prosperity. God A scriptures that talk about
- 49:09Speaker 1: your well being.
- 49:11Speaker 5: Hi, we reveent you, hm.
- 49:19Speaker 7: Hi we reavate, I we REVERENTI love.
- 49:34Speaker 2: For in your presence. Very easy life have lasting.
- 49:42Speaker 5: I we event you lo, I we fall love love
- 49:55Speaker 5: a litear. I we fall load you love for your presence.
- 50:09Speaker 2: VERI is life everlasting?
- 50:13Speaker 6: I well fall load you love. I will reste you love.
- 50:27Speaker 2: Goody's speaking to someone.
- 50:29Speaker 1: Hi, we.
- 50:31Speaker 2: See you Lord. Stop out the running around. It is
- 50:35Speaker 2: time to rest for your presence. VERI is life everlasting.
- 50:44Speaker 8: I we resting you. I will call upon you love.
- 50:57Speaker 8: It says, who is worth your praise.
- 50:59Speaker 6: I will call upon you Lord.
- 51:07Speaker 9: For your presence.
- 51:10Speaker 2: Veries life have alassing.
- 51:15Speaker 9: I will call upon you, I will rest in you.
- 51:31Speaker 9: I will cross my God.
- 51:39Speaker 1: So I find it that this is God's speaking concerning
- 51:44Speaker 1: my life. Joshua Selmer, you will be great. I will
- 51:48Speaker 1: make your name great. And I look at it, and
- 51:52Speaker 1: nothing around my life may be showing that result. But
- 51:56Speaker 1: then I understand that God is a maker. He's not
- 51:58Speaker 1: only a maker of heath. He is a maker of minister.
- 52:02Speaker 1: He's the maker of decisions. I allow myself to meditate. Now,
- 52:09Speaker 1: please listen, very important Joshua, Chapter one and verse eight.
- 52:14Speaker 2: The recipe that the Lord gave Joshua for success, that.
- 52:18Speaker 1: The book of the Lord, the book that contains principles,
- 52:23Speaker 1: the book that contains promises, the book that contains prophecies,
- 52:29Speaker 1: shall not depart from out of thy mouth. Remember it
- 52:32Speaker 1: is out of the abundance of the heart that.
- 52:34Speaker 2: The mouth speaks. It says, but thou shall meditate during
- 52:38Speaker 2: day and night. That means the consistence that thur.
- 52:41Speaker 1: Theyers observe, were coming there strong thing. So I meditate
- 52:48Speaker 1: upon the world. I meditate upon the promises. Do you
- 52:52Speaker 1: know what meditation does? Meditation create convictions. When do meditate
- 52:57Speaker 1: upon the world of God, the Holy.
- 52:59Speaker 2: Story begins to read upon that scripture.
- 53:01Speaker 1: And brings out the light and the power of that scripture,
- 53:05Speaker 1: so that you are persuaded beyond you are persuaded beyond
- 53:10Speaker 1: bending you know that God is going to do this. Now.
- 53:16Speaker 2: The Holy Ghost also shows you the role. Please please
- 53:20Speaker 2: pay attention. The Holy Goost also shows you the role.
- 53:24Speaker 1: That you have to play in actualizing that promise. Principles
- 53:31Speaker 1: leaders to receive promises. Please understand it is not just
- 53:35Speaker 1: the awareness of a promise alone.
- 53:38Speaker 2: There are principles. So I give you an instance. If
- 53:42Speaker 2: you are trusting God to give you.
- 53:46Speaker 1: Said direction or let's say, to grant you access to favor.
- 53:51Speaker 1: Now you study the Word of God and you find out,
- 53:53Speaker 1: for instance, that favor is important, that it is favor
- 53:57Speaker 1: that helps men to rise in life. You got excellent
- 54:00Speaker 1: chapter three and verse twenty one. And I will give
- 54:03Speaker 1: these people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. The
- 54:07Speaker 1: Bible says, and it shall come to pass that as
- 54:10Speaker 1: we go, ye shall.
- 54:12Speaker 2: Not go empty. So when I see emptiness in my life,
- 54:15Speaker 2: I know.
- 54:16Speaker 1: That the diagnosis is that the favor of God has
- 54:18Speaker 1: not been activated in my life. But the awareness of
- 54:22Speaker 1: it does not mean I have a solution. Now, how
- 54:28Speaker 1: do I get favor even in the sight of Egyptians
- 54:32Speaker 1: Because Egyptians do not like Israelites historically speaking, not necessarily now,
- 54:37Speaker 1: but as within the context of the Bible, the Israelites
- 54:42Speaker 1: were slaves in Egypt, and yet God said, on that
- 54:46Speaker 1: particular condition, I will give these people favor in the
- 54:50Speaker 1: sight of the Egyptians, and it shall come to pass
- 54:53Speaker 1: that when we go, these shall not go empty. So
- 54:56Speaker 1: I begin to such a scripture. What is the law
- 54:58Speaker 1: that makes for favor? What is the principle that I
- 55:01Speaker 1: will obey? I look at things like some one or two.
- 55:04Speaker 1: Verse thirteen, it says, doubt shall arise and have lessie
- 55:11Speaker 1: upon your zion for the time. So I know that
- 55:16Speaker 1: fabor has a lot to do with timing the time
- 55:19Speaker 1: to favor. A Yeah, the said time is come. You
- 55:22Speaker 1: see that now, So I begin to pray. Lord, I
- 55:25Speaker 1: tend to I'm meditating on the world of God, and
- 55:27Speaker 1: the strait of God tells me, okay, let me use
- 55:31Speaker 1: an entity that receives favor to teach you how favor works.
- 55:34Speaker 1: He takes me to the book of Esther. And now
- 55:36Speaker 1: I begin to sorting out. A little girl from Shushan
- 55:39Speaker 1: Hadassa came to a point of prominence, never used a
- 55:43Speaker 1: sub to fight anyone, yet she killed the greatest enemy
- 55:47Speaker 1: of the people of God. What principles did she apply
- 55:52Speaker 1: the Holy goosest now, for instance, begins.
- 55:54Speaker 2: To teach me that there are ways to activate favor.
- 55:58Speaker 2: I'm telling you how faith works. Ah.
- 56:01Speaker 1: When you are valuable, it makes people to desire you.
- 56:05Speaker 1: When you practice or not, it makes people to desire you.
- 56:09Speaker 1: When you understand relationships, it helps you bring favor. You
- 56:13Speaker 1: can pray your way also to favor.
- 56:16Speaker 2: I am. He's showing me the role that I have
- 56:18Speaker 2: to play.
- 56:19Speaker 6: Now.
- 56:19Speaker 1: Many believers are not attentive to their role. They are
- 56:22Speaker 1: only attentive to God's role. They know what God should do,
- 56:26Speaker 1: but they do not know what they should do their
- 56:29Speaker 1: participatory role. When you act on scripture, you are not
- 56:33Speaker 1: negating the finished work of Christ. It is your participatory
- 56:37Speaker 1: role in making that which is finished manifest.
- 56:41Speaker 2: I retreat.
- 56:42Speaker 1: When you act upon scripture, you are not negating the
- 56:45Speaker 1: finished work of Christ. Your action of obedience is your
- 56:49Speaker 1: participatory role to make that which was finished in Christ
- 56:53Speaker 1: to be manifest.
- 56:54Speaker 2: In your life.
- 56:55Speaker 1: Here and now, this is where many believers fay, we
- 57:00Speaker 1: do not act the Bible crellesses. There is he that
- 57:03Speaker 1: scatterat and tender to property. There is here that withholded
- 57:07Speaker 1: more than is meat. I mean there is he that
- 57:09Speaker 1: satiret and yet increase. There is he that withholded more
- 57:12Speaker 1: than is meat and tends to property. And yet you
- 57:14Speaker 1: will find people who are grieving, wanting God to bless them.
- 57:17Speaker 1: You will find people who have no passion for the
- 57:19Speaker 1: House of God, wanting God.
- 57:20Speaker 2: To bless them. You will find people.
- 57:22Speaker 1: Who ignore and neglect diligence, wanting God to bless them.
- 57:29Speaker 2: What are the areas that you are trusting God for
- 57:32Speaker 2: a miracle?
- 57:33Speaker 1: What are the areas in your life, precious people of God,
- 57:36Speaker 1: that you're trusting God to activate supernatural possibilities? And may
- 57:40Speaker 1: be talking to a man of God, a woman of
- 57:41Speaker 1: God who is trusting God.
- 57:43Speaker 2: You're saying, Apostle, you may not know what is.
- 57:45Speaker 1: Happening to me in ministry and down ministry is not working.
- 57:48Speaker 1: I love God with all my heart. I serve him,
- 57:51Speaker 1: but I don't seem to see the outstretched arm of God.
- 57:54Speaker 1: It may be a mother who is watching. It, may
- 57:56Speaker 1: be a father who is saying, your God, visit my
- 57:58Speaker 1: family can heed this, my children. I'm tired of negative
- 58:02Speaker 1: things happening around my life.
- 58:04Speaker 2: Until you are willing to take responsibility, the light will
- 58:07Speaker 2: never shine.
- 58:09Speaker 1: Blaming people for your condition, blaming the government for your condition.
- 58:13Speaker 1: Now I know that here and there there may be
- 58:15Speaker 1: legitimate grounds upon which you may say, Okay, my father,
- 58:19Speaker 1: my brother, my uncle, somebody who would have helped me.
- 58:21Speaker 2: But listen to me. I say this especially to Africans Nigerians.
- 58:25Speaker 2: I say this to believers. Until you are willing to take.
- 58:29Speaker 1: Responsibility over your results, you will never that sense of
- 58:33Speaker 1: entitlement that makes it look like someone somewhere should succeed
- 58:37Speaker 1: and come and bless you.
- 58:38Speaker 2: It will only lead to frustration.
- 58:40Speaker 1: As a man of God, you must take responsibility and say, look,
- 58:44Speaker 1: if my ministry is not working, it is not because
- 58:47Speaker 1: there are too.
- 58:47Speaker 2: Many churches in my city. If my ministry is.
- 58:50Speaker 1: Not working, it is not because maybe there is some
- 58:54Speaker 1: kind of tribal sentiments. No, take responsibility. There may be
- 58:57Speaker 1: a dimension of grace and fire and not that I
- 59:01Speaker 1: do not know, and you contend for it in the
- 59:03Speaker 1: spirit of faith. Very very important. So you must find out.
- 59:09Speaker 1: The end of meditation is understanding, and understanding is only
- 59:13Speaker 1: complete when you find out your role, your participatory role
- 59:17Speaker 1: in causing the work that God had finished in Christ
- 59:20Speaker 1: to be made manifest in your life. Please try to
- 59:24Speaker 1: understand this. Abraham did not just sit down. God beckoned
- 59:28Speaker 1: on him, follow me, and the Bible says Abraham got.
- 59:31Speaker 2: Up and began to work.
- 59:33Speaker 1: He got to a point where God beckoned on him, Abraham,
- 59:36Speaker 1: take down thy song, thy only song? Who down love it,
- 59:39Speaker 1: even at the risk of being controversial, even at the
- 59:43Speaker 1: risk of being looked upon. Do you know what it
- 59:44Speaker 1: means to sacrifice your child? I don't know the extent
- 59:48Speaker 1: of wickedness that that would be. That a man would
- 59:50Speaker 1: carry his young son of about twelve years old, take
- 59:54Speaker 1: him to a mountain and go I got chat him.
- 59:56Speaker 2: Simply. You would see that as selfishness.
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: And yet he was able to take that risk to
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: prove to God that it process him, and God towards
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: said him, blessing, I will bless you. You read that
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: in Hebrews Chapter A Romance chapter four, when he began
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: to talk about the faith of Abraham, that Abraham see,
- 1:00:16Speaker 1: I think we should go there. As I prepared to
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: round up Romance Chapter four, please hmm charalelujah. Romance chapter four,
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: we read verse one and two. Then, for time's sake,
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: our rush to our rush to verse verse twelfth and thirteen,
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: and then we just look at a few things and
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: see the character faith. It says, what child, We say,
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: then that Abrahamer, our father has partaining to the flesh.
- 1:00:54Speaker 2: Have found that means he's showing us now how Abraham
- 1:00:57Speaker 2: obtained the promise Verse three for what said? Okay, verstrae,
- 1:01:03Speaker 2: Let's go verse three for what saith the spiriture? Listen carefully.
- 1:01:08Speaker 1: Abraham believed God, and it was counted onto him for righteousness.
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: For time's sake, I want us to go to verse sixteen.
- 1:01:17Speaker 1: Verse sixteen, very quickly, the Bible says, therefore it is
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: of faith that it might be by grace to the
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: end that the promise might be shure to all the seed,
- 1:01:26Speaker 1: not to that only which is of the law, but
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: to that which is of the faith of Abraham, who
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: is the father of us. All seventeen. As it is written,
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: I have made THEE a father of many nations. The
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: maker is speaking again. I have made THEE the father
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: of many nations, before whom he believed, even God, who
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: quickened the dead and colored those things which be not
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: as though they were. Look at the character of faith. Now,
- 1:01:51Speaker 1: verse eighteen, the Bible says, who again, so do not
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: think Abraham just believed God because it was convenient. There
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: were things around him that negated the speakings of God.
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: But the Bible says, who, against fool believed in hope
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: that he might become the father of many nations, accading
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: not to his desire according to that which was spoken?
- 1:02:12Speaker 2: What was spoken?
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: So shall I see it be nineteen, he says, And
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: being not weak in faith, he considered not so. The
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: character of faith is that once you find what God
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: said and you find your role, do not consider what
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: the limitations are. He says, he was about one hundred
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: years old, neither yet considered the deadness of.
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: Sarah's wom he staggered.
- 1:02:39Speaker 8: Not.
- 1:02:39Speaker 2: The Bible says, at the.
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: Promise of God through on belief, Remember I spoke about
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: the integrity of God, staggering not at.
- 1:02:47Speaker 2: The promise of God through on belief. It says God
- 1:02:50Speaker 2: was strong in faith, giving glory to God and Luyah.
- 1:02:55Speaker 1: And being fully as too, waded, purely persuaded that what
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: he had promised he was able.
- 1:03:05Speaker 2: Are you seeing now? Just live it there?
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: So we see that he was persuaded and God's integrity,
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: and now he's persuaded in God's ability, integrity, ability, God
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: do you love me enough to do it?
- 1:03:26Speaker 2: Yes, God, do you have power enough to do it? Yes?
- 1:03:31Speaker 1: On this basis, I believe you show me what role
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: I have to play. And God says, this is now
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: your role, just for Selman, this is now your role.

- 1:03:49Speaker 1: to what in keeping with that which He has given you.
- 1:03:52Speaker 1: And the Bible says indicently, if that becomes true for you,
- 1:03:57Speaker 1: then your result is guarantee. He said, is she that
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: believes the Bible says, for onto her D shall be

- 1:04:10Speaker 1: New Heritage Baptist shorts, who believed D shall be a
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: performance of the things that were spoken of the.

- 1:04:17Speaker 1: When he came to Mary, the Bible says he met Mary,
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: brought God tidy, sent an angel. Gabriel came and met
- 1:04:25Speaker 1: Mary and began to bring a very control verstal salitation
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: called that a woman who was highly favored. And Mary looked,
- 1:04:32Speaker 1: and what man of salitation was this? And she began
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: to tell Mary that she would have seen that would
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: not come from immortal man. And Mary said, how shall
- 1:04:41Speaker 1: these things be seen.
- 1:04:43Speaker 2: That I know not a man.
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: Then he says, the power of the highest sell come
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: over shadow you.
- 1:04:48Speaker 2: At the end of it, Mary said, be it onto me.

- 1:05:20Speaker 1: But be it on to me according to thy world.
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: I want to lift up your voice wherever you are

- 1:05:38Speaker 1: the prayer of Mary and Abraham believed God. He was
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: persuaded about God's integrity. He was persuaded about God's ability. Listen,
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: two of them are important. You can be persuaded in
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: God's integrity. He does not lie, he does not say.
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: But that's not enough to give your results. You may
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: be persuaded about God's ability. Lord, you need both a
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: resignation of the short.
- 1:06:09Speaker 2: Of his integrity and his ability.
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: We're praying, Grant me grace to know that you are
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: a God of integrity. Grant me grace to know that
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: you are a God who does not fail in a
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: world today that is full of disappointments, in our will
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: today that is full of disappointed expectations. Grant me grace
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: to know that you are not a man that you
- 1:06:37Speaker 1: should lie, nor the son of man that you should repent.
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: That if your mouth authors it, and if you appear
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: to be through your world giving me promises, showing me principles,
- 1:06:47Speaker 1: revealing prophecies to me, then I can trust you.
- 1:06:50Speaker 2: I can take you for your word.
- 1:06:53Speaker 1: We're praying, Thank you, Jesus, Thank you, Jesus, Thank you, gem,

- 1:07:14Speaker 1: You have being sought, for your zion, for your spiritual growth,

- 1:07:35Speaker 2: Allelujah, We're going to pray. Father, opened my eyes to
- 1:07:43Speaker 2: see the promise.
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: The principle and the prophecy are located for breathing my
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: possibility now. For people can have the same need for
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: the scripture that God will use to bail them out
- 1:07:58Speaker 1: to be different. Men can be trusting God for the
- 1:08:01Speaker 1: fruit of the womb. True women can be trusting God
- 1:08:04Speaker 1: to live your family. For one, God will give me
- 1:08:06Speaker 1: a scripture. You need a specific prophetic word, a specific
- 1:08:12Speaker 1: scripture that reveals to.
- 1:08:14Speaker 2: You what God wants to do.
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: Say open down my eyes that I may behold one
- 1:08:19Speaker 1: druss things from out of my Lord.
- 1:08:21Speaker 2: We're praying, Lord, open.
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: My eyes, revealed to me by the agency of the spirit,
- 1:08:26Speaker 1: show me appear to me via your world. Let me
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: see the promise. I'm located for the area of concerning
- 1:08:34Speaker 1: my life. If my marriage is not working, not show
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: me the scripture. If my health is not working, show
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: me your word. If my destiny is sagnated, show me
- 1:08:45Speaker 1: your word. He sends shortest word the Bible says, and
- 1:08:49Speaker 1: his word he let them and deliver it them. You
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: are praying from the depth of your heart. Who are
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: taking personal responsibility for your life. Take personal responsibility for
- 1:08:59Speaker 1: your home, your family, your finances, your ministry. Take personal
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: responsibility for your spiritual group. Don't blame your pastor and say,
- 1:09:07Speaker 1: for instance, oh, my person did not go to counsel
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: me or give me time. That's why I'm not great spiritually.
- 1:09:14Speaker 2: That's not true.
- 1:09:15Speaker 1: Don't blame your parents and say, John, because my parents
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: did not manifest the level of responsibility I would have wanted,
- 1:09:22Speaker 1: that's why not take responsibility. Lord opened my eyes to see.
- 1:09:28Speaker 1: Don't say it's because God has refused to annoint me.
- 1:09:31Speaker 1: That's why I've not reason as a great man of God.
- 1:09:33Speaker 1: These are very very well meaning excuses, but not they
- 1:09:37Speaker 1: are not legitimate excuses. Pray, Lord, grant me grace. I
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: take responsibility over my destiny. And in the name of Jesus,
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: the Christ of God, the Son of the Living God,
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: I decree and I declare by the power.
- 1:09:51Speaker 2: Of the Holy Spirit. I declare in the name of
- 1:09:54Speaker 2: Jesus Christ, that.
- 1:09:57Speaker 1: I find to such I find t I find through
- 1:10:01Speaker 1: the labored dimension of the Word of God.
- 1:10:04Speaker 2: I pray and ask the Lord to open my.
- 1:10:06Speaker 1: Eyes let me find the principles are located.
- 1:10:09Speaker 2: For my lifting.
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: Let me find the principles are located for my favor
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: the scriptures alleluia.
- 1:10:20Speaker 2: The Bible says, now that you know the thing, it says,
- 1:10:27Speaker 2: happy are you if you do that? Listen to me.
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: It is not just hearing the word that produces results.
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: It is not just knowing what God has said. You
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: must obtain grace to do. The grace does not exempt
- 1:10:44Speaker 1: you from doing. The grace empowers you to do.
- 1:10:48Speaker 2: This is, I think, a.
- 1:10:49Speaker 1: Bitch of a balance that Musphere brought, because most people
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: think that all that the grace of God does is
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: to exempt you from doing. There are actions that are
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: actions of the law have been dealthy, but there are
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: actions of say James said, show me your faith without works,
- 1:11:06Speaker 1: and I will show you my faith by my works.
- 1:11:08Speaker 1: There are works that are actions, attestations, participatory actions that
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: validates that you believe God.
- 1:11:17Speaker 2: Very very important.
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: Joshua, Chapter one and verse eight, the Bible says, this
- 1:11:21Speaker 1: book of the Law shall not depart from out of
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: thy mouth. He says, but thou shall meditate during day
- 1:11:28Speaker 1: and night that thou mayors observe to do according to
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: all that is written.
- 1:11:32Speaker 2: Deary, he says down mayors.
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: Observed to do, not just observed, to know, just observed
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: to speak. Confession is a very active part of faith,
- 1:11:43Speaker 1: but that's not all you must obtain grace to do.
- 1:11:46Speaker 2: There are many of us.
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: We may need to write the things that we will
- 1:11:49Speaker 1: need to do as our participatory actions of obedience to
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: prove to God that we believe him fully and then
- 1:11:57Speaker 1: commit his integrity.
- 1:11:59Speaker 2: God is a god of integrity, but his.
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: Integrity is committed on our behalf at the point of obedience.
- 1:12:10Speaker 2: The Tounomy, chapter twenty eight.
- 1:12:12Speaker 1: I'm rounding them Deteronomy twenty.
- 1:12:15Speaker 2: Eight from verse one. And it shall come to pass.
- 1:12:19Speaker 1: If that's a condition, thou shall diligently happen to the
- 1:12:25Speaker 1: voice of the Lord that God, then to observe, and
- 1:12:28Speaker 1: next to do all not to do so, not to
- 1:12:31Speaker 1: do the one you like, not to do the one convenient.
- 1:12:34Speaker 1: Let me tell you this, when you are urbeying God,
- 1:12:37Speaker 1: you don't choose your conditions.
- 1:12:38Speaker 2: You don't choose your terms.
- 1:12:40Speaker 1: If God gives you and a challenges you, for instance,
- 1:12:43Speaker 1: as a take a seed to your pastor and throw
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: it into his life, so that you will speak over your.
- 1:12:49Speaker 2: Life to break this whole of delay. For instance, you
- 1:12:53Speaker 2: must be careful to do all.
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: If God says be diligent, a lazy man will beg
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: in harvest. You cannot just be prayed and refuse to
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: be productive and expect that God is going to bring
- 1:13:05Speaker 1: things in your hands. No, you will have to trust
- 1:13:08Speaker 1: God for place to do all his commandments which I
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: commanded this day. He says, as a result, the Lord
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: will set thee on higher both all nations of the head.
- 1:13:18Speaker 1: And then verse two says, these blessings shall come on
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: be and overtake thee. If that's a condition that shall
- 1:13:27Speaker 1: happen to the voice of the Lord, like God, we're
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: way to pray, Lord, show me my role investing the
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: possibility that you.
- 1:13:37Speaker 2: Intend for me to have in this Pleases, show me
- 1:13:39Speaker 2: my role.
- 1:13:40Speaker 1: We're praying. Please pray, show me my role. For some
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: of you, your role will need to be to go
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: for training. For some of your your role will need
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: to be investing knowledge. For some of you, your role
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: will need to be to work buy books that discuss
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: your subject of concern.
- 1:14:00Speaker 2: For some of you, your role will need to be humility.
- 1:14:04Speaker 1: For some of you, your role will need to be
- 1:14:06Speaker 1: to build character For some of you, your role will
- 1:14:09Speaker 1: need to be to spend more time with God's world.
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: For some of you, your role will need to be
- 1:14:14Speaker 1: to stay with scripture and deal until you conform to
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: the image of God. For some of you, your role
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: will need to be to take risks. For some of you,
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: your role will need to be to build relationships. For
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: some of you, your role will need to be to
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: spend more time in prayer. For some of you, your
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: role will need to be wisdom to access with them.
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: For some of you, your role, excuse me, they need
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: to be to go online and start for job opportunities.
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: For some of you, your role will need to be
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: to sit down with your wife and talk and build
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: a great marriage. For some of you, your role will
- 1:14:55Speaker 1: need to be to be more attentive to your children.
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: For some of you, your role may need to be
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: to love the body of Christ. For some of you,
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: your role may need to be to love God with
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: all your heart.
- 1:15:16Speaker 2: Pray from the depth of your heart. What is my role?
- 1:15:19Speaker 2: Lo God?
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: There has to be something that I need to do.
- 1:15:22Speaker 1: The rich man came to Jesus and said, good Mastern,
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: what do I do to inheritance and our life? Now
- 1:15:31Speaker 1: the next point where I went to pray. No body
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: can fulfill the demands of faith in the strength of
- 1:15:38Speaker 1: the flesh. This is something we need to understand. The
- 1:15:41Speaker 1: Bible says in Romance Chapters Aid. From verse one, he says,
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: there is therefore now no condamnation to them which are
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: in Christ Jesus powerful stripture, who walk not not just
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: who sit down there, who walk not after the flesh,
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: but after the spirits. Two says for the law of
- 1:16:01Speaker 1: the Spirit of life in Christ, Jesus have made me
- 1:16:04Speaker 1: free from the love of sin and death. Three it says,
- 1:16:07Speaker 1: for what the law would not do in that it
- 1:16:09Speaker 1: was weak through the flesh. You see that now the
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: flesh made the law weak, he says, God saiding his
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: own son in the likeness of simple flesh, and foreseeing
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: condemns sin in the flesh.
- 1:16:19Speaker 2: Verse four.
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: And then the Bible says that the right sourcess.
- 1:16:22Speaker 2: Of the law might be fulfilled you not who walk
- 1:16:24Speaker 2: not after the flesh, but after the spirit.
- 1:16:27Speaker 1: Verse five it says, for day that are after the flesh,
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: do mind the things of the flesh, but day that
- 1:16:33Speaker 1: are after.
- 1:16:34Speaker 2: The spirit the things of the spirits. Gets the point
- 1:16:38Speaker 2: for to be candaly minded. The word can again is sensual.
- 1:16:42Speaker 1: That means the limitation of your impulses is what you think,
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: what you hear, what you see, what you taste. To
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: be candidly minded will only lead.
- 1:16:50Speaker 2: You to death, he says.
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: But to be spiritually minded is life. And it's let
- 1:16:55Speaker 1: me just post here a bit and as we round
- 1:16:58Speaker 1: of let me just encore. It does believer us. We
- 1:17:01Speaker 1: are in very sensitive times that require high level spirituality.
- 1:17:08Speaker 2: There are people who sit down.
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: And you know, we hear all kinds of things from
- 1:17:11Speaker 1: the media. We hear all kinds of things from our
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: relatives and our friends, and you just put on the
- 1:17:16Speaker 1: television and it's like everything is about world. Everything is
- 1:17:20Speaker 1: about trouble. It's like the whole world is patching off.
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: Let me tell you this strength.
- 1:17:25Speaker 2: It is not the destruction of Satan that bringes us back.
- 1:17:29Speaker 1: It is a glory and the dominion of the saints.
- 1:17:32Speaker 1: He is coming as a king of wakings. God is
- 1:17:35Speaker 1: not sitting on the throne scratching his head and wondering
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: what to do. No, and the Church is not becoming
- 1:17:41Speaker 1: a powerless entity that is under the limitation and the
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: vicissitudes of life. The church is the bride of Christ
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: guarded by this old jealousy. We are a victorious people,
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: but we must be careful what we allow himTo The
- 1:17:57Speaker 1: ear gates into the idea. This sensitive gets to our series.
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: The things you read, the things you hear, the.
- 1:18:06Speaker 2: Company you keep.
- 1:18:07Speaker 1: It is very important culture your atmosphere remain at a
- 1:18:13Speaker 1: level of spirituality that allows the Holy Spirit to be
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: comfortable working with you. There are persons who believe that
- 1:18:20Speaker 1: until certain things happen, we cannot prosper. There are businessmen
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: who believe until certain things.
- 1:18:26Speaker 2: Happen, we cannot prosper. And that's not true. God is
- 1:18:28Speaker 2: still a.
- 1:18:28Speaker 1: Maker's making men, making families, making destinies, restoring hope. There
- 1:18:34Speaker 1: are people who have been so blessed even during this pademic.
- 1:18:37Speaker 1: There are people who are known God. There are people
- 1:18:39Speaker 1: who have increased are likely to exempt yourself from knowledge.
- 1:18:43Speaker 1: You must make up your mind is as not as
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: we love the whole body of Christ and we love
- 1:18:48Speaker 1: the world, we sympathize with the tragic things that have
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: happened to people, but do not allow what is happening
- 1:18:53Speaker 1: in the world to suddenly destroy your condition. I know
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: whom I have believe. I may not know who you believe,
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: not what you believe, but I know what I have disease.
- 1:19:03Speaker 1: So we'll wait to pray. Lord, help me to be spiritual,
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: To be spiritual, that my mind is governed by your world,
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: not the speakings left right from bad here and there not.
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: Let me not de satan room to dampen my faith.
- 1:19:20Speaker 1: Let me not de Satan room to destroy my convictions.
- 1:19:23Speaker 1: And we pray, Thank you, Jesus.
- 1:19:27Speaker 2: Thank you, Jesus, Thank you Jesus.
- 1:19:31Speaker 1: Now I like you to pray for New Heritage Baptist Church.
- 1:19:34Speaker 1: Pray for pastor great servants of God. Pray for his
- 1:19:37Speaker 1: dear wife, Pray for his family.
- 1:19:40Speaker 2: We are times where ministry is very challenging. The devil
- 1:19:43Speaker 2: is raising.
