Speaker 1 (00:00):
Stay tuned for a special message from Amber Silence Ministries
and Minister Jody. I am first of all, I had
no idea that I was going to be doing this video.
So yay, here I am. Here, I am unprepared, here
(00:21):
I am, but I'm sharing this. So I was working
on a little something something, and I was led to
by Leamen. I have read it before many times before.
It's always been my favorite book, especially the story about
Anissi mus who was a slave that had ran away.
(00:43):
I guess he ended up in jail or however with Paul,
and so he was being released, he was leaving, and
he was going back to his master by lemen, excuse me,
Aileenen was his master. But Paul wrote a letter to
take Fanisimus to take back to Fileenen with him, and
(01:07):
Paul was sharing with Fileingen. You know he's more than
a slave now, he's a brother. You know this, this
young man, and he served me. Well, you know, I
don't even want to let him go, but you know
he has to come back to you. And so in
verse fifteen, he says, four perhaps and I love this
(01:27):
verse like I memrized this verse long a long time ago.
He says, for perhaps he departed for a while for
this purpose, that you may receive him forever, no longer
as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother,
(01:48):
especially to me, but how much more to you, both
in the flesh and in the Lord. Sometimes you gotta
let people go and just right for him. You don't
purse them because they're leaving you. They're not leaving you.
God has a plan for each of us, and you
(02:08):
gotta sometimes let people go and let them walk in whatever.
I remember how Paul had hit counsel the Church of
corinth I think it was about this young man. He
was doing some things that he had no business doing.
(02:29):
As a matter of fact, this is verse Corinthians, chapter five,
and it's versus one through five. It's verse five. Actually,
see I didn't even know the Lord just leave. But
I'm gonna reverse one through five. It's verse five, chapter five,
the First Corinthians, Verse five that actually gives the instructions
that I'm referring to. But I'm gonna reverse one through
(02:51):
five so you'll know exactly what was going on. So
it says, it is actually reported that there is sexual
immorality among you, and such immorality there is a tone
to us to for me and such sexual immorality as
is not even named among the gentiles, that a man
has his father's wife, and you are puffed up and
(03:15):
have not rather warned that he who has done this
d might be taken away from you. For I, indeed,
as absent in body, but present and spirit, have already
judged as though I were present, him who has done
this d In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
(03:37):
when you are gathered together along with my spirit, with
the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, deliver such a
one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that
his spirit may be saved in the day of our Lord.
Deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of
his flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the
(03:58):
day of the Lord. That stands out to me, because
again that's about letting go. Sometimes you gotta let some
stuff go, you know. Same thing with the prodigal son, right,
excuse me, same thing with the prodigal son. The story
of the prodigal son. The father had to let him go,
and when he came to his senses, he returned. And
(04:20):
so that's that's Filema. It's amazing, amazing book. So I
knew about that story, and in what I was doing,
I was simply going to write that part of it
for what I was working on. You know, that part
of it about the receiving again, because because that's what
you see in Corinthians, you see this person being let go.
(04:41):
We don't know the name of this person, we don't
know what this person did. But in Philema we see
the return again. It says, perhaps he departed for a
while for this person, for this purpose, excuse me, for
this purpose, that you might receive him forever, no longer
as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother,
(05:04):
especially to me, but how much more to you, both
in flesh and in the Lord. So that's awesome, right,
And so I was just gonna write on that part,
and the Lord said, no, I want you to read
the whole thing over again. And so I began reading
Paul a prisoner of Christ, Jesus and Timothy our brother
(05:27):
to fight Lehmann, our beloved friend and fellow laborer, to
the beloved Athea occupants, our fellow soldier, and to the
church in your house. Boom. He stopped me right there.
I had to look at that again and to the
church in your house. See, here's the deal. People say
(05:54):
that because you have not returned to a physical brick
building outside of your house that we call church, that
we that because you have not returned to a physical
building outside of your house that we call church, they
said that you haven't gone back to church. Pill God's word.
(06:15):
Do not agree with that, fight Lehman. Chapter one. It's
only one chapter, verse number two. It said, to the
beloved afea arcupus, or to Filema, our beloved friend and
fellow laborer, to the beloved afia Occupus, our fellow soldier,
and to the church in your house. And immediately this
(06:38):
is what the Lord could see. I've been hearing that
a lot, and it's almost been like a condemnation that
has been said. But I just cannot always just like,
you know, I'm with the Lord. And the Lord showed
me the church that I attend, which was amazing, amazing,
and yeah and so and this was price into this right,
(07:01):
and so like I was still here. I was still here,
you know anyway, and it was like a condemnation, but
you know, I just brush it off because I know
what the Lord said to me. And then here this
confirmation here, and when I read that, this is what
the Lord said to me. He said, well, two of
more gathered in my name, I am in their myths.
(07:23):
We are the church, and so when we gather in
his name, he's in our mids. So with that being said,
let me put this warning out now to you, because
many of you think that you're only in church when
you go to a physical building and you guys have
(07:44):
these meetings, the meetings in the pastor gets speaking, y'all
sing some songs. But when God says that when two
of you are gathered together, I am in your mits,
you're having church, and He's paying attention. And so because
of that, you need to watch what you're saying when
you get on the phone, when you're on the phone
(08:04):
and you're talking and you're having these conversations, or when
you're in person and you're out somewhere and you're talking
and you're having these conversations, God is paying attention. Number
one Malachi, chapter three, verse sixteen. You can go look
it up. With what I'm about to share with you
right now is numbers. Chapter twelve. Miriam the choir director
(08:27):
and Aaron, who was the pastor, the priest. They were
having a whole conversation about Moses' wife. This is it,
it says, this is numbers chapter twelve. Then Mariam and
Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom
he had married, For he had married an Ethiopian woman.
(08:50):
So they said, has the Lord indeed spoken only through Moses?
Has he not spoken through us also? And the Lord
Lord heard it. Now the man Moses was very humble,
more than all men who were on the face of
the earth. Suddenly the Lord said to Moses, Erin and Miriam,
(09:12):
come out, you three to the tabernacle of meeting. So
the three came out. Then the Lord came down in
a pillar of clouds and stood in the door of
the tabernacle and called Erin and Miriam, and they both
went forward. And he said, hear now my words. If
(09:34):
there is a prophet among you, I the Lord make
myself known to him in a vision. I speak to
him in a dream. Not so with my servant Moses.
He is faithful in all my house. I speak with
him face to face, even plainly, not in dark sayings.
(09:56):
And he sees the form of the Lord. Why then,
were you not afraid to speak against my servant Moses.
So the anger of the Lord was aroused against them,
and he departed, and the cloud departed from above the tabernacle. Suddenly, Moses,
I mean Miriam. Suddenly Miriam was struck with leprosy. I'm
(10:20):
gonna leave it right there. You guys need to watch
your conversations when you're not in your physical building, because
you don't equate the fact that when you're walking and
you're walking in the Lord, the Lord is with you
no matter who you have a conversation with. You're in church.
So because of that, I'm just sitting this woman out there.
(10:42):
Watch the conversations, watch what you say, because even when
you're not in the physical building having service, the Lord
is still paying attention. And that's what the church is
really all about. It's God being in the presence of
the Lord, all right,
