What a day to rejoice!
Truly a gift from Our Father!
And I love looking around and seeing all your smiling faces,
it warms my heart so..
Heavenly Father,
Before we begin our message for today, let us be reminded, that we're all here for Your glory! We acknowledge You as our source, our provider, our healer and redeemer! The Bible verses, scripture readings, and our prayers are secondary,
As we concentrate on the glory that is Yours alone, and we bring to You Lord, our needs and the needs of others. Let us now open our hearts and minds to Your Holy Spirit and the miracle of Your grace, that we may extend it to others.
In Jesus' name
Amen
Ever since the day you were born, the devil sets out to destroy you.
From the time you left your mother's womb, the devil wanted to destroy you.
Satan has been trying ever since, to somehow keep you down, so that you would never have a relationship with God.
And right now the enemy is doing his best to destroy your walk with God.
Why?
Because God has a plan and purpose for your life!
God wants to use you for His kingdom!
And he knows God is about to flip your mess upside down!
God wants to turn your mess into a message!
Say that with me,
God wants to turn your mess into a message!
"The Prophet Is Called
Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you;
Before you were born I sanctified you;
I ordained you a prophet to the nations.”
Then said I:
Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a youth.”
For you shall go to all to whom I send you,
And whatever I command you, you shall speak.
Do not be afraid of their faces,
For I am with you to deliver you,” says the Lord.
See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms,
To root out and to pull down,
To destroy and to throw down,
To build and to plant.”
Jeremiah 1:4-10
Right now you are closer to God then you have ever been before!
And Satan is
tugging at your soul, so hard, probably you can feel the pressure of Hell trying to
stop you!
You may be in a mess right now but God can take you mess and turn it into a message. But God can turn your mess into a message.
He can take your mess of unbelief and turn it into a message of Faith.
He can take a drug addiction and turn it into a message of deliverance.
He can take a broken marriage and turn it into a message of Hope and restoration!!
Right now you need to believe that you are bigger then your circumstances
Church, we need to turn it over!
Say that with me,
Turn It Over!
We need to take the area of our lives, the area of greatest weakness into the area of our greatest strength in order that God may be glorified in us. I am talking about taking the area of Satan's greatest defeat in your life and turning it in to the greatest area of victory in your life.
Now the apostle Paul had his thorn in the flesh and many of us
have our own. The word for thorn is not the word for a thorn that one
would find upon a rose bush, but it is the word for "stake."
This thorn is no light thing, it is a stake such as was used by the
Romans to impale one upon. Something so debilitating and
so severe, that it left Paul totally defenseless and helpless in ministry.
Three times Paul asked God to take it away, and each time God said
I will not take it away, but I will give you sufficient grace so that
this stake, this mess, will be your greatest message to others about
the sufficiency of My power in your life.
I know, at some point, all of us have prayed for God to remove "thorns" in our lives.
Am I right?
Someone here today is in agony because of your thorn in the flesh. You are saying,
"God if you would just take away my depression then I could serve you better."
"God if you would just take away this chronic illness that I have to
endure then I could serve you better."
"God if you would just take away my abrasive personality then I could serve you better."
"God if you would just bring me out of this financial devastation, I could serve you better!"
Now I could go on and on and on.
I may know not what your thorn is and you may
not know what my thorn is but one thing is for certain, we all have thorns!
Say that with me,
We All Have Thorns!
Whatever is a mess in our lives, God can make into our message about the sufficiency of His grace to carry us through in victory. Only if we have a thorn, can we know that God's grace is indeed sufficient.
And believe me, His grace is sufficient for our every need..
You are bigger then your dilemma.
You are on fire and hell is raging mad.
You need to understand the power of God that is within you!!
Wake up!
If
I can ever make you understand how powerful you really are… there will
be no stopping you from Prayer, from outreach no stopping you from
accomplishing the things that God has for you to do.
You need to say I can give a bible study.
I can pray for the sick.
I can witness to the lost.
I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me.
It’s
time to arise to the occasion, it’s time to set our eyes on the dreams
for tomorrow and stop living in the defeat of the past.
We are the
children of the most high God and 1 John 4:4 says
"You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world."
Wake up let's get going let’s have that soul winning Revival we have been waiting on.
Let's have those miracles we've been hearing about.
Let’s see those lost mom's and dad's and brothers and sisters come to God.
God can take the worst situation and turn it around.
God can take that job and give you a raise.
He can take that lost child and save him/her.
God can take the worst of the worst and make it the best of the best.
God is waiting on us to believe.
I refuse to die in this dilemma!!
Say that with me,
I Refuse To Die In The Dilemma!!
Wake up, you don’t have any idea what God is about to do in your life.
You have to get down in your self and discover your own greatness in the Holy Ghost.
We need to understand that the Holy Ghost is the power of God within us.
God.. in us the hope of Glory. We can’t let God’s dream for us die… His dream is for us to come to where He is.
There is too much greatness inside of you for you to just set back and be defeated by the devil.
I am going to scream WAKE UP until I get your attention.
Until I can get you awake to the fact that God wants to do something great in your life.
You are powerful, you are anointed, you are the children of the Most High God!
You are more than a Conqueror through Christ Jesus!
You are more than an over-comer!
If you, and this world, would ever realize how great God is then we could never feel defeated!
Is there anyone in this house of God today that is tired of feeling your hope vanished?
You sick and tired of sitting back, watching your dreams die?
Tired of feeling defeated time and time again.
"And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. Let us walk properly, as in the day, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and lust, not in strife and envy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts."
Romans 13:11-14
Church, it is high time for us to realize who you are in Jesus Christ!!
You are the anointed of God.
We have a commission to go you therefore into all the world and preach the Gospel.
Commissioned to heal the sick
Commissioned to cast out devils!!
We
have the okay from God to do these things.
We have the power of God
living in us through the Holy Spirit to be witnesses to our family, friends and neighbors, and anyone else the Spirit of God tells us!
But...
We have to understand who we are, who we represent here on earth.
Turn to someone sitting next to you and say,
Who Do You Represent?
Now to the other person; answer them, tell 'em
Almighty God!
We are God’s children and He will accomplish in and through us, whatever we will allow Him too.
The worst time in your life is about to become the best time in your life for God to do the Supernatural through you.
We must believe that He is a rewarder to them that diligently seek HIM.
But listen up:
"But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him."
Hebrews 11:6
Somebody shout,
Seek Him!
Amen!
God has always took the least of all humanity to accomplish his will.
Abraham was a idol worshiper and became the Father of all.
He took farmers, fisherman, tax collectors, harlots, to bring His word to pass.
God took what looked like a mess to everyone else and gave it a message!
"But God
has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise,
and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the
things which are mighty; and the base
things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen,
and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, that no flesh should glory in His presence."
1 Corinthians 1:27-29
In Closing....
I came to let somebody know, that He can take you and me and anyone else He pleases to fulfill His will
for this day and time.
You wanna know how I know?
Because, There is nothing impossible with God or to them
that believe.
Church, it looked impossible for Abraham and Sarah
to have a child in their old age but all things are possible to them
that believe.
It looked impossible to Moses and the Israelites to take a stick and open up the Red Sea.
But it was possible through God.
It looked impossible for David a 16 year old boy to slay a giant nine feet tall.
But God made it possible.
Say that with me,
God Made It Possible!
I know to some of you it looks impossible to take a handful of people
here in this place and turn it upside down but it’s not
impossible.
It doesn’t look impossible to God.
Are you
ready to awaken to the fact, that in your hands, you have a powerful source in the Almighty God, which is in Christ Jesus which INDWELL IN US???
Scripture: John 14:12-14…
"Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it."
Numbers 23:19 says,
“God is not a man, that He should lie,
Nor a son of man, that He should repent.
Has He said, and will He not do?
Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?"
Let God turn your messed up situation upside down and use it for His glory!
Let God turn your mess right side up for your good!
Turn your mess into a message.
Somebody needs to let God know
Turn my mess into a message!
Say it with me,
Turn My Mess Into A Message!
And now may the Lord bless you and keep you;
the Lord make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The Lord lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.
Now and forever, in Jesus' name
Amen
