work with the Lord's considering what isgoing to bring in as a fun as
(01:03):

by getting those things God expect.So then we jump into the Word of
God and a perchange of looks.Returning pertains to Living Right. We'll be
talking about the subject matter of stayingin faith and in faith moving forward,
(01:27):
staying in faith, moving forward forLord. We're going to talk about the
subject matter because it is very importantin the Body of Right, because I
do believe that God is a rewardof those that speak Him, and I
do believe that we have some militantseekers out in podcast. Things now going
to drive the right into secontivity.The third chapter, sixteenth to the seventeen
(01:47):
versus is all scripture is given byinspiration of God, and its profitable for
doctrine, for recruit or correction forinstruction in righteous that's a man of God
makes me perfect. Thirdly, frontit's unto all good works. I want
to know that we should have theattitude that is the word is God that
we live by until we live,move and have seen his very spoken words,
(02:10):
God spoken words both life and Hespoke us to the existence. And
not only that He is given thosebread shows problems. Is we're supposed to
hold on to those proumpts? Sohow many know that all the problems?
Because yes, because there yes aman. That means that we should be
purpose in our heart to make surethat we walk in to the place of
the prompts. Now we're going tobe talking about you know, moving is
(02:34):
a supernatural increase. Stand in faith. How you move, stand in face.
That's standing faith no matter what youdo, So overn proper support.
Chapter seventh verse it says wisdom isthe principal team. Therefore get wisdom.
But all that's getting get understand.See but the night we're gonna jump it
out tonight, what I keep scripturenext. The script is found over in
(02:55):
the Deuteronomy thirtieth chapter. The sixteenverse is for I command you today to
love the Lord your God, towalk in obedience. Begin I wonder how
many people really really love the LordYou're gone. You know a lot of
people say you this dove because theydid love someone. Say, you know,
my mama always says, love iswhat it does. So that means
(03:15):
that we should have the corresponding actioninto company the love that we have for
our gods. And that means thatwhen we loved him, we should be
wanting to really walk in obedience tohim. We should be ordered to keep
his commanders. We're going to keephis commandments. Not only that, but
it's in greens and laws. Andthe scripture said it said, I can
(03:36):
may you today, not tomorrow afterthat, but I could command you today
to love the Lord your God,walk in obedience to him, and to
keep his commands freeze and law.Why is the order to keep the man's
decrees and laws? Because if wedon't keep them, we don't keep them
before us, we can so easilyget distracted and launch. Just God has
(04:00):
come in and caused us to turnaway and call us to draw back.
And I'm telling you something. Thereare a lot of folks that are drawing
back. There are a lot ofpeople that are taking their hands off by
those who were once instead of usinggrounded in the Lord, and they cause
them not to be to build theirface off their doubts because they're not getting
to that word daily praying. It'sall that. If they're all turning away,
(04:24):
and I'm telling you it's not good. But when he says in his
word that he said, if youlove the Lord your God and walking is
obess to him, and keep thiscommandments, decreasing off skin, you will
live and incury. You know thatscripture could said if you'd not loving,
you will die and decrease. Butit says, if you've result and me
you keep his commandments and the decreesand laws, that you will live and
(04:46):
you will injury and the conjunction thatthe Lord will the Lord your God will
bless you in the land you areentering to possess. You know, I
think about the children of this bieldwhen they were going to possess, and
you know, with on the Mosesleaderships, many of them died with bullets
just because it just o begin andthen you know, josh Wood took up
the reins after Modes passed away,and he led the people over into Jericho,
(05:11):
and when they got off to Jurachos, they got over into that promise.
I truly believe that there is aDurac still waiting today for a lot
of the places of stuff, becausethere is a place that God has in
store he get to. But yourjob is to make sure that you move
into the supernatural place of increase.That's why when the scripture says, if
(05:31):
walk in obedience and keith his demandis decreed in alved then then then then
then then you will live and increase. I don't know about you, but
I want to live, and Idefinitely want to increase in stuff. And
the Lord your God will bless youin the land that you're to enter into.
Posss now. The word moving isdefined as a self motivated action based
(05:55):
on an intrinsic goal. It isa desire to change what is into what
could be. That the words ischanging out your trajectory, moving into a
better place, moving to a placewhere you know, if you're really moving
towards the goals that you're supposed tobe trying to accomplish in every born again
believer as an assignment, and everyoneagain believer should be trying to reach the
(06:18):
goal in which God has already orthing that assignment to be manifest. Another
word into is defined as in thedirection of. So that means if I
got to be self motivated based onan intrinsic goal, but I gotta be
moving in a directtion in order tomeet that goal. As I'm moving and
(06:39):
get to that place, I amtrying to connect with the powers of God
that he will offer the supernatural abilityon my natural duties, so that I
will be able to move forward,not in my own flash party to dudes,
but in him. Supernatural is defininghis operating above and beyond this world,
(07:00):
something above and beyond the natural wordyou're not done by time, you're
not killed, as you're not heldto the same standards as the work.
And because if God is in it, he makes all the difference in the
world. Not the word of increase. It needs to become progressively greater as
size, amount, number, orintensity. So that means if it's my
(07:23):
responsibility to be such motivated based onthe goal of supernatural increase, if it's
my des like to change what isinto what could be. If there is
life, then I want to changeit over into provision. If there's sickness,
I want to be able to changeit over to healing. I want
to be able to change come outof the zone of where I am now
(07:46):
and move into that new place.What God want us to do is he
want us to move in, moveup and move out, moving in by
faith, and we're moving up,you know, getting his way to think
his a biling. Yeah, we'vegot to renew my mind. I gotta
get think a little higher than whatI've been thinking, and not of myself,
but I gotta think in and Igotta get my word. My mind
(08:07):
is renewed with the word of God. Because if my mind is renewed in
the Word of God, that meansmy thinking change and thinking change. I'm
able to get rid of all thosetypes of top well strongholds that will try
to keep me balanced. Throne holdswill keep your bounce. That's why you
have always pull down those strong holds, because there's always gonna be suggestions from
(08:28):
the enemy. You're gonna always tryto suggest to you that you cannot plan
and that you could never get tothe place where God wants to be.
But tonight we are serving notice onthe enemy. Were letting them know not
tonight, not tomorrow, and thenthe day either this is the day of
victory. And we're moving up higher. We're elevating our minds. We having
a minded price in every every everysituation. That's why with the Bible,
(08:50):
people is over. And Romo saidtwelfth, kept you know that we are
to renew our minds and make surethat if we renew our minds, we
are replacing all bad thoughts with theword of God. Let me tell you
about the word of God. Theword of God delivers. It delivers every
time. It changes the way thatyou think. It changes the way that
you walk, It changes the waythat you talk, It changes the way
(09:13):
that you live. And that's thereason why man cannot live by bread alone,
but he has to live by everyword. That's to see that out
of the mouth of God now speakingabout everyone. And we got to get
us to look into the law ofliberty. While liberty is something, but
the word of God, it wouldshow us all of the infraspection. It
would let you know when you're veeringoffice to a very bad place and you
(09:35):
got to get back to where youneed to be. I do believe that
that is going There's a lot ofthings going on in the body of Christ
where a lot of folks are justlosing their footage and they are not moving
in the zone where God wants themto move. So we're moving in faith.
We're moving up on you, andwe move out in something in that
man. I got that word inme, then I've got that stupornatural power
(09:56):
that is on me. I cango on and do needs to be done
to tharn and blessing the people ofGod, helping with the advancement of the
Kingdom of God. In here nowwe talked about Moses. He moved in
face, he moved up Haya,and he moved out in confidence. The
beginning took him a long time toget in face with the bottom line,
(10:16):
he got there, and when hefinally got there, I mean or he
began to do some powerful things.Now, Moses did allow the people to
kind of to turn him from movingto the place where God really intended for
him to take the people into thepromising. However, Moses did a wonderful
job in turns and feeding the peoplefrom Egypt beating the people in the wilderness,
beating the people at the read seeopen to the next place where dry
(10:39):
water, driving the dry grounds forit. And even so doing this,
Moses he never ever gave us.He continued to trust in God. One
thing that Moses mistake that he madewas listening to the people. He allowed
the people to frustrate him this pointwhere instead of him on being God to
speak to the rock, he endedup tracking the rock. And when that
(11:01):
happened, it caused him the opportunityof really going into the phase of trumpt
I just want to go back tothrough the running in with thirty Jepter,
because it goes back and it resignatedvery well that sixteen versays he said,
command you today to love the Lordyour God, and to walk in obedience
to him. No one is exempt. Every person is responsible to walk in
(11:26):
obedience to be like, if youwant to get the goodest land, that
means that you got to you gottaope, You gotta be willing nick and
obedience. That's the issue. Everyoneis not willing and obedient. They want
to do their own thing. Youcannot do your own thing and expect to
get and move into the great placesthat God chance for you. I truly
believe that once you grab a holdof his principle, it's like taking inventory,
(11:50):
learning now to align your behavior withthe word of God so much so
that you are able to say,Lord, act in the way I should
react, and I'm not respunded theway should be responding. I need to
make sure that I'm able to makesure that I can examine correct those things
(12:11):
that does not reflect who you are. Well, Moses did a good job,
but let me tell you something.Joshua even took the people higher.
For the bottom line is this everythingthat Moses pretty much so had to encounter,
Joshua pretty much so had to encounter. Joshah pretty much so had to
help the people get to that placeof building their face govern the dollars,
they can move into a healthy placewhere they need to be. So tonight
(12:33):
we're gonna deal with faith, stayingin faith in order to get increased from
God, You've got to be ableto really stay in faith because one of
the big issues that we have is, you know, we can have faith,
but sometimes we like the patience forit. And while we're waiting under
blessing to men stens you've gotta stillremain in faith. So we're gonna jump
(12:54):
right up to the first tempathy thefourth chapter, the very first verse,
he said, now the Spirit speachit expressed it that in the latter time,
some ch'll depart from the faith,giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines
of death. Not the spirits.Said that in the last day there will
be those who would depart from thefaith once delivered to the saints, and
(13:15):
give their attention to deceitful nine spirits. This reveals that the actual origin of
the distortions are seducing spirits whose natureis to lie. And that's exactly what
the enemy does. He is andthere's no truths found in it. This
should not surprise us, for theHoly Spirit said it would occur now,
Paul. He made the same pointor old in Galatians to third chapter the
(13:37):
first person, when he spoke ofthe Galatians being bewitched. I look when
he said, who else be witchyou? Old relations? In other words,
you know Jesus died for you,and now you are into the place.
You know, gentiles are now cominginto the Christian world, And now
all of a sudden someone has talkingto you and talked you out of everything
(13:58):
that God has now made to youthrough his dear son. And it's the
same way that's happened today. Wehave to go back and make sure,
thanks to God, that we're notallowed that enegy to rob us, to
steal from us, to kill anddestroy us, to keep us in a
retreat mode versus advancing mode, becausewhen this happened, will end up backing
(14:18):
off, not being able to moveforward in the very thing that God told
us do, because we'll forget theword of God. Well, we should
always have the word of God asa remembrance to keep moving forward. Now,
the phrase shall depart is a Greekverb, and that verb is a
fist to me. And this Greekword means to cause, to withdraw,
(14:41):
to desert, or to go away, to depart. And there are so
many people that are withdrawn, they'vedeserted, they've gone away, they've departed,
And this departure indicates a deliberate choiceto remove from a former position.
But I truly believe that when weare talking about faith, we have to
(15:03):
we have to. I mean,we got we gotta put, we got
to put the stake in the groundand say I shall not be moved.
Got have a mindset that bulletdog thatsays, once you get that bone and
my mind, ain't nobody taking itout. I'm gonna chew on it.
I'm gonna now on it until Iam done with it. So in this
event that we're gonna walk by faith, our mindset has to be We're not
(15:24):
going anywhere. We're gonna stand onthe word of God. And it does
not matter how long we stand.We will not change our positions. We
will not budge, we will staywith God. Now, faith is the
biblical truth, uh as it ispresented about the Apostles and the Holy Scripture.
So we learn from this text thatabout feeling and desires a company apostasy
(15:48):
are really cleverly disguised demonic the deception, and that's all we is the deception,
and it is a distraction. Sono one would ever turn away from
the goodness of God without the moonicdeception. Let me tell you something.
That's the reason why you got toguard your heart with all diligence, because
(16:08):
let me tell you something. Theenemy is on a problem. He's looking
to see whom he can divil andif he can devalue, he will steal
from you, he will kill,he will take everything that God has from
us you. And let me tellyou what all the promises are. Yes
and amen. And God is nota respect of a person. I mean,
(16:29):
he's not a respective person, buta respect of my faith. I
cannot allow nothing to tamper with mindfaith. You can't allow nothing to tamper
with your faith. You got tobuild yourself up when nobody else builds you
up. You got to get inthat word. When nobody else will preach
to you or teach to you,you got to listen. Because faith coming
by hearing and hearing by the wordof God. We're overcomers by the by
(16:53):
the blood of the limit, bywords, by testimony. But we have
faith is the venture overcoming the world. So that means that our faith trout
every scenario. We win in everysituation. Now, there are five elements
of faith that a just talk aboutto night. Number one is hearing.
We know that the Word says nonfaith coming by hearing and hearing by the
(17:15):
word of God. Not only doesthis come by hearing, you got to
be able to receive the word andwhat I mean receive it. It's like
a gift given unto you. Youknow, you got to be able to
perceive it and receive it, knowingthat there are no negatives about this.
But this is the bona fide naturalword of God that He has placed in
our lives. Not only just perceiveit, God will believe it. People
(17:36):
of life. You got to getit in your knowing that regardless of what
your circumstances situation looks like, youwill receive the word. Listen, when
you hear the word, you receivethe word, and you believe the word.
Something will motivate you to speak theword now every morning again, believe
it. God responsibility is to speakit. Now. You can read the
word and never make a sound.And I wanted to say, Faith,
(17:59):
that's coming. Faith come by hearing. That's why it's important for you to
read out loud. Sometimes it's importantHe just makes some decorations. It's important
for you to be able to goforth and make sure that you are able
to get yourself in a place that'sgood. Let's just make a couple of
Faith's confessions right now today. Inthe name of Jesus, I believe that
(18:21):
God will do everything that he saidhe will do. I am a believer
I believe God's words. I amwhat the Word says I am. I
have what the Word says I have. I can do what the word says
I can do. In Jesus' name, I render ineffective every negative word I
(18:41):
have spoken, every negative thing thatI have thought, every word and thought
that has been contrary to the truthof God's words. From this moment forward,
I will acknowledge only the good thingsthat are in me in Christ Jesus.
I am saying it now. Outof the good treasures though my heart,
only good things will come to pass. I am a righteousness of God.
(19:06):
I am a new creation. Iam an era of God. I
am a joint heir with Jesus thority. God Come on, says with me.
I have been delivered from the powerof darkness, and I have been
translated into the kingdom of God's dearson. I have been redeemed by the
blood of the Lamb. I've beenredeemed from the curse of the law.
(19:26):
I've been redeemed from sickness and disease. I have been redeemed from poverty.
And from this I can do allthings through Christ, who strengthens me.
I am more than a conqueror morethan a comfortable I'm feeling really good now.
Just feel good. He never needsme, neither does he forsake me.
(19:47):
Since the Greater One dwells within me, I can overcome every situation.
The faith of God resigns within me, and through it I have the victory
that overcomes the world. Faith isthe victory that overcomes the Word. And
because faith does in me, Iovercome every scenario that the world presents before
(20:10):
me because of the faith that lieson the inside of me. Oh Father,
I thank you right now. Ithank you that I can't have all
these things I've been needed in myheart. I've released it with my mouth,
so be it. It will surelycome to pass in Jesus' name.
Amen. Now, what did Ijust do? I just spoke the Word
of God. And the word thatI just spoke it was nothing but just
(20:33):
it was saturated with faith scriptures.But that means now I said it about
loud. Guess what's happened. Iheard it, I received it. I'm
believe in it. I spoke it, and just what I'm going to begin
to do, I'm acting on itnow. So all these things that I'm
saying, I'm going to align mybehavior with the Word of God so that
(20:56):
I can remain in faith, stayin faith, so that I can carry
out the assignment that God has givenme. Why Because somebody needs the blessing
that is on my life, andsomebody needs the blessing that is on your
life. It is critical that youbegin to move forward to do the very
(21:17):
things that God has instructed you todo and be the person that God wants
you to become. Faith is aspiritual force that causes the blessings that God
promised in his Word to manifest inthe natural world. So that means that
when I do those things, whenI receive those things, somebody is going
to get blessed. Whatever you arebelieving for hoping for, whether it be
(21:38):
healing your finances, a new home, or a new car. Faith in
God turns that hope into a tangiblesubstance. Out fred again, faith in
God, it turns that hope intoa tangible substance. Faith in God's Word
is the way we receive everything fromGod's Why it's critical that you stay in
(22:02):
faith. It's critical that you feedyour faith and starve your doubts. We
must say in faith, we muststay in faith and constantly do check up
off our faith to make sure thatwe are faith strong. We got to
imagine that we're faith strunk. AndI can tell every time when I get
in a little weak area of myfaith because I've become more sensitive things that
(22:25):
I'm hearing and seeing, and Iknow that the Scripture teaches us that we
walk by faith and not by sack. And we have to get to that
place where we are setting our fletshipson things that are above, things that
are internal. Let me tell yousomething, even when I don't see it,
God is working. When you don'tsee it, God is working.
And you got to get to thisplace where the word of God becomes a
(22:47):
comfort one to you. The wordof God becomes that place of it just
really just gives you the assurance inknowing that God is going to do and
God is going to He's going tobring it to pass every thing that he
says that he would bring it topass. Now, O Brady, he
Brews the eleventh chapter. I wantto get it in life because I want
(23:07):
to make sure that we begin tohappened in this Itrews eleven chapter, the
first verse. It is not faith, it's of things hoped for the evidence
of things God sing, God iscertain, is not sweet, but I
want to make sure we did it. Here the first word faith and HEREWS
eleven is translated from the Greek wordpiss us. It is well known word
that comes from the root that meansto persuade, to trust, or to
(23:30):
believe. So that means that,you know, we got to add that.
We got to be persuaded, fullypersuaded. We got to be able
to trust, and we got todefinitely be able to believe it. It
pictures a divine spark given by Godthat enables you to believe. And in
ancient times the word pictures refer toa guarantee or warranty of something that was
(23:56):
sure. But you know, Abrahamwas full of persuade. To remember the
script you're over in Roman sup fourthchapter. Let me go there and read
the right foot teeth, because Iwant you to get this. We got
to come to the place where weare fully persuaded. We're not just going
through the motion, but we're fullypersuaded. Let me tell you something,
when God promise you something, yougotta be fully persuaded, or else the
(24:18):
devil will come and try to persuadeyou not to be in faith, but
to get over into fear that it'snot going to happen. So in your
mind, you have to begin torenew your mind. You got to begin
to make sure that you are castingdown again all bad thoughts, all negative
imagination that will try to exalt itselfagainst the knowledge of God. And I'm
(24:41):
gonna tell you something. Only thingthat's going to try to exort itself against
the knowledge of God is some crazinessthat the in me will bring your way
over. In Rome's a fourth chapter, I want to start there. I
like this because of verse seventeen sisas it is written, I made these
talking to Abraham. Here, letme back it up. It says death
in verse sixteen death or it isa faith that it might feed by grace
(25:06):
to the end. The promise mightbe sure to all the seed. Promise
might be sure to all the seed, not to that only which is of
law, but to that also whichis of the faith of Abraham, who
is the father of us. All. So that means that you know all
because of what he ended up doing. You know, he made a lot
(25:26):
of mistake, but then he makesgood choices by getting an agreement with God
first seventeen sus. As it iswritten, I had made be a father
of many nations before before him whomhe believes, even God who quickened the
dead, and calling those things whichbe not as those they were, wholl
(25:48):
gets hope, believes in hope thathe might become the father of many nations
according to that which was spoken,those shall thy seed feed, and being
not weak in faith, this griefhe considered not his own body now did
when he was about one hundred yearsold, neither yet the defence of Sarah's
wounds, and the scripture says hestaggered not at the promises of God.
(26:14):
At the promise of God, dounbelief. But he was strong in faith,
giving glory to God and being fullypersuaded that what God had promised he
was able to perform it. Ijust believe when you start talking about being
fully persuaded, when you're talking aboutthat word pisses, you got to be
(26:34):
fully persuaded that what God has promisedhe is able to perform it. Now.
The grief word for pisted us alsodepicts something moving forward, like a
force that is propelled forward and ismoving toward a goal. We talked there
early about movement, and movement enough, but moving in a direction that you're
(26:57):
able to reach this goal. Nowhere we go back and look at faith
is like a bullet shot from agun. Once it is released, it
moves forward and never stops until itreaches its goal. To be clear,
this means real faith is never inretreat. In other words, it doesn't
go backwards, It doesn't go sitin the corner, it doesn't go sit
(27:18):
down. It might need to regroup, but it never stops. So if
you're in treat, you are notmoving in faith. In fact, if
you're in spear, you're not movingin faith. Why because God has not
giving you the spirit of fear,of power, love, and a sound
mind. In other words, substancemeans to stand. Literally, it means
to stand by something. It refersto the attitude and actions of one who
(27:42):
has been determined to stand by somethingpromised and refuse this to budge from it.
It pictures a fixed decision that onehas made to be unmoving and to
stay or stand by the promise thathe is believing will come to parents.
But that means that if I stickat my body and I'm believing God by
(28:03):
faith that I would be healed,so I would tell what the doctor says.
I have to stand on the words. I have to stand on the
promises that I know that God hasoffered spoke in concerned in my healing,
regardless of what goes on his forast the pain of his concerned. Iaint
love. It could take you toa place where it could make you say
something that is not of faith.But the reality is you still have to
(28:25):
go back in and decree and declarethe word of God. I remember years
ago that was one of the choirmembers of mine who was very faithful and
love the Lord, loved the wordof God. And boy, she got
sick, and I remember she hadtheir doct noster with cancer. And I
remember how the testimony of the saintswere that would go see her, and
(28:48):
they were saying that many times thather body was in so much pain that
she never ever said, oh ithurts. She just every time the pain
hitter, she thanked God for herAnd no one really knew exactly where she
was coming from, but she thankedGod for what she was believing for it
to happen in her life. Sothat means that she was not moved.
(29:08):
She was unmoved, and she stayedstanding on the promises of what she was
believing that was going to come topast. And guess what, it came
past and she got our heels Andit has to be the same thing.
If it worked, then it stillworks today. And I think that's a
big issue that we need more testimoniesof the power of God to heal,
(29:30):
we need more testimonies of the powerof God to deliver, We need more
testimonies of the power of God toprosper in people. Because some people just
only believe that this is for certainpeople. No, it is for all
people of faith, all people whowill get into this face and say I
won't be moved. I'm going tokeep standing. I'm going to keep moving
in the direction that God will haveus to move in glory to God.
(29:53):
Now, in the same way,when you in faith, you relentlessly stand
by what God has said in hisword like a bulldog plunge into that bone.
You continue to tenaciously hold on toHis promises until they become a reality
in your life. As an example, let's say you have been standing by
God, by God's promise for healingand half chosen. You'll never let go
(30:18):
until your healing is manifest. Butlet's say you've been standing by God's promise
for financial provision or the restoration ofa relationship, and just like the bulldog
or refusal that goes his bone,you are holding on and standing by God's
promise. I said, you areholding on and standing by God's promises.
(30:40):
Let me just say it to youover in the Book of Hebrew eleven,
chapter is the Hebrew the Hall ofFame. Faith. There were some things
that believe God, and they diedthe believing God. But they died in
faith. My goodness, glory toGod. I said, they died believing
God. They died in faith.They are the words. You have to
(31:00):
decided that you will never let goof the promise until it is manifested in
your life. I want to seethe blessings of God in this life of
minds. I don't want to dieand miss I don't know those things.
I want to be able to tapinto every promise. Everything that he says
the other words, hoped for isa confident expectation of something. It is
(31:22):
a competent expectation of something. Inother words, it does not mean I
hope this will happen. But insteadit means I confidently expect it to happen.
You know what I just said,Not that I hope it will happen.
It means I confidently expect this tohappen. I want to send the
Lord. I confident believe that thisis going to happen. Although it had
(31:44):
not happened yet, there is anactive expectation that it will take place.
And it's I mean when it takesplace, it doesn't matter what it takes
place today, for to take placetomorrow, on the next month, the
next year of the year after that, I have to remain in faith.
It's sometimes continuously being hopeful even ifthe manifested manifestation hath not just yet.
(32:08):
Come now. The other words,here is evidence. It means to convict
someone of something. That's when you'rein faith, you have a very strong
conviction that what God has promised isundoubtedly going to happen. And you can
say you can, you can,you can, you can you can market
all or whatever while you want amarket. If God said it, and
(32:29):
you stand by his word and youwait on Him to manifest it, it
will undoubtedly happen. Glory God,I said it is going to undominantly happen
now. Jumping on down the Hebrewsto the eleven chapter, the sixth verse,
Praise God, Amen. It said, without faith, it's impossible to
place him. For he that comesto God, he must believe that he
(32:51):
is, that he is a rewardon them that delegitly seek him. I've
said this on Sundays. I appreciatethis word. It says. Most people
think that the words without faith describedan absence of faith. But the word
without is really transferred from the Greekword chorus th h o r i is,
and it means without as being outsideof a specific place. For this
(33:15):
word chorus translated here as without,It describes faith as a location lord to
God. But that means that youcan either be in or out. That
means that faith is a place,and you can be in faith or out
of faith. And a lot ofpeople think that they're in faith, Really
they are out of faith. Sowhat does it mean for you to be
(33:37):
in faith or to stay in aplace of faith? It means to continuously
stand by and stay with the callingor promise that God has made to you.
That calling or promise is your assignment. It is the location where you
need to be, and you canstay in it or you can move out
(33:57):
of it. But when you moveout of it, you move out of
faith. So what am I sayingtonight is stay in faith. This means
that you have made the decisions tobe unmoving and that you will not budge
from the calling or the promise ofGod that He's made under you. It
means you're going to be belligerently standby it until you see his manifestation.
(34:21):
It means that you're going to belligerentlystand by it until you see it's manifestation.
Not to be without faith means tobe outside of faith, to move
out or to leave your assignment ofpromise. He loves letter success when you
when one abandon the assignment of promiseof God, it is impossible for him
(34:44):
or her to please him in thatplace. Why, because you moved out
from what God has instructed for youto do. That's why I have to
go back and read that again.Glory to God. That is a good
thing. But without faith, it'simpossible to please him. So that means
that I've got to stand in fact, I got to carry for the assignment.
Otherwise I'm letting him down, forhe that comes to God must believe
(35:07):
that He is and that He isa rewarder of them that diligente seek him.
Glory to God. So to stayin faith it means to stick with
the assignment, stick with the calling, stick with the promises that God gave
you. It is your place offaith. If you want to bring pleasure
to God, you have to stayin faith. That means that you have
(35:28):
to stay in alignment with what Godhas called you to do, or stick
with what He has promised you staywith his word. You must be determined
to stay there until you never proceedsor fulfilled what God has said, and
he proved repleens. He says thatwhen you stay in faith in that way,
you will leave God. And Isay it this way. I would
(35:52):
have feigned unless I believe to seethe goodness of the Lord in the land
of the Living. Wait on theLord. I want to be of good
courage because I know that He's goingto spend in my heart. And as
he's spending my I can wait.I say on the Lord. So that
means that I am going to stand, stand, stand, and that's all
twenty seven thirteen and fourteen that Ijust court. It is a biggie because
(36:15):
it's something that we got to understand. I ain't say I ain't giving up.
I'm going to see the blessings ofGod in my life now. But
then the Hebrews Episodes goes on tosay that God is every warder we talked
about this this week of them thatdiligently seek him. That word rewarded is
a Greek word that means and describeshe gives the money. He gives a
(36:36):
seller there's a payment that is due. It can also describe the recommens,
reimbursement, settlement, or reparation.It depicts being a reiverse for an expense
a person has paid out of hisown talking and the other in order to
get his job done, a fulland complete recompense is given. So in
this verse it denotes the one whopays, the one who rewards for the
(37:00):
one who gives what one has comingto him. Or he talks about the
pay master. You know who thepay master is. The pay master is
nobody. But God, let metell you something. For every every diligence
seeker, there is a paymaster,God the Father, and he's gonna make
sure that payday is coming. Andthen that payday is coming. This lessons
(37:23):
know that when you get into agreementwith the promises of God that you that
God has given you, and youchoose to stay in faith, which includes
standing in that place He's designed youto be, or sticking with the promise
of God made to you, amoment will finally come when God, the
great Paymaster, will richly reward youwith his rewards, and He will fully
(37:45):
recompense and richly reimburse you for everythingthat you have invested along the way.
And as you stand in your placeand faith come on, that will be
great rewards. There will be greatrewards. So I'm just gonna break it
down and say, Number one,you gotta believe what God has said when
He's spoken to you. Number two, you must stand by it, stick
(38:07):
with it, and never bulge fromit. Don't let the wind, don't
let any of that get you tothe place. But he calls you to
move and get out of the position. Stay in your position. Stay in
your position. Number three, youmust know that heyday is coming when God
will reward you or stand in faith. And let me tell you something that
(38:29):
is such a profound moment, becausepayday is coming. I said payday is
coming. So I'll ask you thequestion tonight is what is assignment or the
calling that God has given you?What is the promise of God's work that
you have been standing on? Andif you will stay in faith and refuse
to move away from what God hastold you or promise you, You're gonna
(38:52):
You're gonna witness His power. You'regonna witness his promise being or at least
on you. And in spite ofanything going on around you, this will
cause you to be unmoved, unshaken, and well provided for. And this
kind of bulldog faith will always producea design assurance is gonna always produce divine
(39:14):
peace, is gonna always produce andrelease divine power, And it's gonna release
divine and supernatural victory. And I'mtelling you is nothing like when you get
that thing released under you, you'reseeing the God of miracles just begin to
flood your household with nothing but hisblessings. You know, and I want
(39:36):
you to know that faith is thevictory that overcomes the world. I mean
true faith coming by hearing and hearingby the word of God. And because
of these things, we gotta makesure that we are standing on the word.
We got to make sure that weare not being moved by the foolishes,
because if we are moved by thefoolishes, will end up getting distracted.
(40:00):
And one of the things that wehave to really deal with with with
with dead in faith, it's adistraction because they're gonna come around you.
There will be there distractions or focusingon what is being done around you,
focusing on what the media is saying, focusing on what the world is saying,
focusing on what unbelieving believers say ratherthan what the words is. The
(40:22):
find is very important for you tokeep yourself in aflate some faith and make
sure that you are always having nothingbut word kind of at your disposal.
Propers the fourth chapter, the twentythird verse, it says, keep thy
hard with all diligence, for outof it are the issues of life.
(40:45):
Out of it are the issues oflife. In the room of it says
it goes on and says, don'tlet your eyes look to the rider took
the Let me read it if Itook it, so you can see.
Verse twenty five says, let thineeyes look right on and let thine eye
is look straight before thee in otherwords, you don't even need to be
looking out the corner of your eyes. Don't even be trying to connect with
(41:06):
people. That when people are talkingabout people in there looking at each other
and you know they have a problem. They're not really speaking the same words,
but they're really connecting with their eyes. And I'm telling you you need
to have your eyes sent on Jesus. You need to have your eyes fixed
on him. Strip you says,you said, let thine eyes look right
on and let thine eye needs lookstraight before the ponder the path of my
(41:30):
feet, and let all thy waysbe established. Turn out to the right
hand, nor to the left,remove thy foot from evil. I'm gonna
read this in the American Standard Bible, and like this it is, let
your eyes look dylity ahead, andlet your gaze be fixed straight in front
(41:52):
of your other gage or some things, but it's in that today's be fixed
straight in front of you. Watchthe path of your feet, and all
of your ways will be established.Do not turn to the right, nor
to the lift. But he says, turn your foot from evil. Turn
your foot wrong, evil, Turnyour foot wrong evil. It is critically
(42:17):
important. But you don't understand that. You know you gotta look right ahead.
You know. It speaks of theimportance of protecting your heart with all
diligence. You gotta protect your heartby being careful about what you are looking
at and what and who you arelistening to. Us said, what you're
looking at and who you are listeningto. Your eyes and your ears are
(42:38):
the gateway to your heart. Andwhatever you see and whatever you hear,
it can get into your heart.And if it gets into your heart,
it starts to come outside of yourmouth. It gets into your heart,
it can come outside of my wifebecause out of the abundance of the heart
(42:59):
the mouth feet. Now, whenit comes out of your mouth, you
are releasing an energy and you willend up having what you say. You
don't want to real need something whereyou know you end up have end up
having what you said. That's whythe scripture says depth in life is in
the power of the tongue. ButI'm gonna go back and say, not
(43:19):
only is death in life in thefollow of the tongue. You gotta guard
your heart with all diligence so thatSteff will not get in you that has
no business being there. I'm tellingyou, even as we begin to look
at this tonight. I'm thinking,God, you gotta go back and you
gotta look at the word of Godas it pertain to stand and face.
Stand and face means that you knowyou gotta hold on. You gotta hold
(43:39):
on first time. And then thefirst chapter the nineteen versus a holding faith
and a good conscious which some havebeen put away concerning faith have made Shipwright.
In other words, keep a firmgrip on your face because this is
not the time to let go ofyour faith. You're going to need your
faith more now than you ever neededit before. I like the fourth chapter,
(44:02):
the fifteen verse, it's just meditateupon these things, give thyself holy
to them, that thy prophety mayappear to all. Let me tell you
something I found this over in thePassion and Translation, which I thought was
absolutely amazing. It's just make allof your constant meditation and make it real
(44:25):
with your life so everyone can seethat you're moving forward. You gotta tell
nobody. Everybody will see that youare moving forward. So you got the
same thing God. Meditate on thewords of Gud and you gotta get rid
of all of the distraction wise,because God is not giving you the spirit
of fear. But he's giving youpower, love and a sound mind.
(44:47):
And I love him. When hewas talking the Tennessee earlier, he's like,
you know, he said, Iremember your your your unfeigned faith that
is in you, which we firstin your grandmother, being in your mother,
and now I'm presared that's in youa also. And he said he
remember when he had laid hands onhim. He says that he told me
he put him and remembers he shouldstir up to get the God which was
in him by his putting on itin his hands. And when you said,
(45:10):
he said, God is not givingyou the spirit of fairs, the
power, love, and a soulmind. To now, I want you
to know that faith moved. Iwant you to know that in order for
you to get to that place whereGod wants you to be, You've got
to do some things in your ownpersonal time. You get the word,
you hear the word. But Itruly believe that God is saying that this
(45:30):
is today that we begin to move. You can be moving by stand in
the same place sometime, but yougot to make sure that God is telling
you to stand still and know thatHe is gone. But regardless of what
he's telling you. Once you getthe word, the spoken word, it
is your responsibility to stand on thepromise of God and not be moved.
(45:52):
I say, stand on the promiseof God and not be moved. It's
your position, is your place tostand in the side that God has given
you, and do not allow noone to get you off of the assignment.
Because there's something that God is tryingto do in your life. This
is the year that we're moving intothe supernatural increases. Let me tell you
(46:13):
every step is ordered of the Lord, and every step that you're taking,
every step that you may you needto be making, knowing it that God
has already given you instructions on howto do it, how to get there,
which role to take, which rolenot to take it. I'm telling
you, just doing it his wayis nothing like surrendering to God so that
he can't be glorify so he can, at the end of the day get
(46:37):
the honor that is due unto him. And guess what, as we do
that for him, he becomes sowell pleased with us. And I'm telling
you, I want to make ithappy. I want to make my God
happy. And I'm asking you youdo the same thing, because when you
start looking at the scripture, itsthat but thout faith, it's impossible to
(46:58):
leave him. So if it's possibleto please him without faith, I want
to have faith so that I canmake him happy, that I can make
him love h to make him justexcited that I am his son. He's
exciting anyway, regardless to the stepsI make or don't make. But the
bottom line is, I purposely wantto make sure that as he sits on
the throne in thevi and if helook down in the earth to watch me
(47:22):
carry out my day to day assignment, that he can think by this is
good. Lucius is doing exactly whatI need him to do. And I
want my God to feel good thatI wanted to feel good and knowing that
I have received those words, andI'm going to make sure that I could
do my very best to carry outbe assiment. That's why I have to
(47:42):
realize is not by my mind norby my power, but by His spirit,
says the Lord. I trust HolySpirit to do what to do,
the natural, to do the supernaturalthing in me to get me to the
place that I need to be sothat I can win. When when in
every aspect of my life. Ilove about you, but I want to
(48:05):
be a winner and I want youto win just just as will. And
I want you to come to thisplace for you know that you hold faith
with a good conscious and you knowyou make sure that you know that people
can see the good works in you, and you know I can tell him.
You just keep moving forward. Youjust keep moving forward. You keep
moving forward, and you keep carryingout the orders of the day. And
(48:28):
I guarantee you people will know thatthere is a God and that God lives
big on the inside of you.And because he lives big on the inside
of you, somebody's going to getblessed. Let me tell you something you
might give. You might as wellacknowledge the fact that you know God has
already has already made the way.God has already given you the word it.
(48:49):
Because He's given you the word,you receive the life of bulldog.
You're not gonna bulve, you're notgonna be moved, You're not going to
retreat, but you are moving forward. I just move it forward. And
when you're moving forward, there isno stopping you. At this moment,
they don't stopping me. So let'sdo this thing together. Let us be
a force in the earth that cannotbe refluent by no the mondic spirits of
(49:14):
no power from the enemy. Becausewe have the word of faith, and
because we have that word of faith, we'll walk by faith, we'll talk
by faith, we'll live by faith. We're dream faith. Glory to God.
We'll do everything by faith. Andnot only that, we will overcome
every obstitle that will get in ourway because faith is the victory that's over
(49:34):
coming the world. Well, letme tell you something. Going over a
little bit of my time, buttonight, I am just letting you know

(01:27):
staying in faith, moving forward forLord. We're going to talk about the

do believe that we have some militantseekers out in podcast. Things now going
to drive the right into secontivity.The third chapter, sixteenth to the seventeen
(01:47):
versus is all scripture is given byinspiration of God, and its profitable for
doctrine, for recruit or correction forinstruction in righteous that's a man of God
makes me perfect. Thirdly, frontit's unto all good works. I want
to know that we should have theattitude that is the word is God that
we live by until we live,move and have seen his very spoken words,
(02:10):
God spoken words both life and Hespoke us to the existence. And
not only that He is given thosebread shows problems. Is we're supposed to
hold on to those proumpts? Sohow many know that all the problems?
Because yes, because there yes aman. That means that we should be
purpose in our heart to make surethat we walk in to the place of
the prompts. Now we're going tobe talking about you know, moving is
(02:34):
a supernatural increase. Stand in faith. How you move, stand in face.
That's standing faith no matter what youdo, So overn proper support.
Chapter seventh verse it says wisdom isthe principal team. Therefore get wisdom.
But all that's getting get understand.See but the night we're gonna jump it
out tonight, what I keep scripturenext. The script is found over in
(02:55):
the Deuteronomy thirtieth chapter. The sixteenverse is for I command you today to
love the Lord your God, towalk in obedience. Begin I wonder how
many people really really love the LordYou're gone. You know a lot of
people say you this dove because theydid love someone. Say, you know,
my mama always says, love iswhat it does. So that means
(03:15):
that we should have the corresponding actioninto company the love that we have for
our gods. And that means thatwhen we loved him, we should be
wanting to really walk in obedience tohim. We should be ordered to keep
his commanders. We're going to keephis commandments. Not only that, but
it's in greens and laws. Andthe scripture said it said, I can
(03:36):
may you today, not tomorrow afterthat, but I could command you today
to love the Lord your God,walk in obedience to him, and to
keep his commands freeze and law.Why is the order to keep the man's
decrees and laws? Because if wedon't keep them, we don't keep them
before us, we can so easilyget distracted and launch. Just God has
(04:00):
come in and caused us to turnaway and call us to draw back.
And I'm telling you something. Thereare a lot of folks that are drawing
back. There are a lot ofpeople that are taking their hands off by
those who were once instead of usinggrounded in the Lord, and they cause
them not to be to build theirface off their doubts because they're not getting
to that word daily praying. It'sall that. If they're all turning away,
(04:24):
and I'm telling you it's not good. But when he says in his
word that he said, if youlove the Lord your God and walking is
obess to him, and keep thiscommandments, decreasing off skin, you will
live and incury. You know thatscripture could said if you'd not loving,
you will die and decrease. Butit says, if you've result and me
you keep his commandments and the decreesand laws, that you will live and
(04:46):
you will injury and the conjunction thatthe Lord will the Lord your God will
bless you in the land you areentering to possess. You know, I
think about the children of this bieldwhen they were going to possess, and
you know, with on the Mosesleaderships, many of them died with bullets
just because it just o begin andthen you know, josh Wood took up
the reins after Modes passed away,and he led the people over into Jericho,
(05:11):
and when they got off to Jurachos, they got over into that promise.
I truly believe that there is aDurac still waiting today for a lot
of the places of stuff, becausethere is a place that God has in
store he get to. But yourjob is to make sure that you move
into the supernatural place of increase.That's why when the scripture says, if
(05:31):
walk in obedience and keith his demandis decreed in alved then then then then
then then you will live and increase. I don't know about you, but
I want to live, and Idefinitely want to increase in stuff. And
the Lord your God will bless youin the land that you're to enter into.
Posss now. The word moving isdefined as a self motivated action based
(05:55):
on an intrinsic goal. It isa desire to change what is into what
could be. That the words ischanging out your trajectory, moving into a
better place, moving to a placewhere you know, if you're really moving
towards the goals that you're supposed tobe trying to accomplish in every born again
believer as an assignment, and everyoneagain believer should be trying to reach the
(06:18):
goal in which God has already orthing that assignment to be manifest. Another
word into is defined as in thedirection of. So that means if I
got to be self motivated based onan intrinsic goal, but I gotta be
moving in a directtion in order tomeet that goal. As I'm moving and
(06:39):
get to that place, I amtrying to connect with the powers of God
that he will offer the supernatural abilityon my natural duties, so that I
will be able to move forward,not in my own flash party to dudes,
but in him. Supernatural is defininghis operating above and beyond this world,
(07:00):
something above and beyond the natural wordyou're not done by time, you're
not killed, as you're not heldto the same standards as the work.
And because if God is in it, he makes all the difference in the
world. Not the word of increase. It needs to become progressively greater as
size, amount, number, orintensity. So that means if it's my
(07:23):
responsibility to be such motivated based onthe goal of supernatural increase, if it's
my des like to change what isinto what could be. If there is
life, then I want to changeit over into provision. If there's sickness,
I want to be able to changeit over to healing. I want
to be able to change come outof the zone of where I am now
(07:46):
and move into that new place.What God want us to do is he
want us to move in, moveup and move out, moving in by
faith, and we're moving up,you know, getting his way to think
his a biling. Yeah, we'vegot to renew my mind. I gotta
get think a little higher than whatI've been thinking, and not of myself,
but I gotta think in and Igotta get my word. My mind
(08:07):
is renewed with the word of God. Because if my mind is renewed in
the Word of God, that meansmy thinking change and thinking change. I'm
able to get rid of all thosetypes of top well strongholds that will try
to keep me balanced. Throne holdswill keep your bounce. That's why you
have always pull down those strong holds, because there's always gonna be suggestions from
(08:28):
the enemy. You're gonna always tryto suggest to you that you cannot plan
and that you could never get tothe place where God wants to be.
But tonight we are serving notice onthe enemy. Were letting them know not
tonight, not tomorrow, and thenthe day either this is the day of
victory. And we're moving up higher. We're elevating our minds. We having
a minded price in every every everysituation. That's why with the Bible,
(08:50):
people is over. And Romo saidtwelfth, kept you know that we are
to renew our minds and make surethat if we renew our minds, we
are replacing all bad thoughts with theword of God. Let me tell you
about the word of God. Theword of God delivers. It delivers every
time. It changes the way thatyou think. It changes the way that
you walk, It changes the waythat you talk, It changes the way
(09:13):
that you live. And that's thereason why man cannot live by bread alone,
but he has to live by everyword. That's to see that out
of the mouth of God now speakingabout everyone. And we got to get
us to look into the law ofliberty. While liberty is something, but
the word of God, it wouldshow us all of the infraspection. It
would let you know when you're veeringoffice to a very bad place and you
(09:35):
got to get back to where youneed to be. I do believe that
that is going There's a lot ofthings going on in the body of Christ
where a lot of folks are justlosing their footage and they are not moving
in the zone where God wants themto move. So we're moving in faith.
We're moving up on you, andwe move out in something in that
man. I got that word inme, then I've got that stupornatural power
(09:56):
that is on me. I cango on and do needs to be done
to tharn and blessing the people ofGod, helping with the advancement of the
Kingdom of God. In here nowwe talked about Moses. He moved in
face, he moved up Haya,and he moved out in confidence. The
beginning took him a long time toget in face with the bottom line,
(10:16):
he got there, and when hefinally got there, I mean or he
began to do some powerful things.Now, Moses did allow the people to
kind of to turn him from movingto the place where God really intended for
him to take the people into thepromising. However, Moses did a wonderful
job in turns and feeding the peoplefrom Egypt beating the people in the wilderness,
beating the people at the read seeopen to the next place where dry
(10:39):
water, driving the dry grounds forit. And even so doing this,
Moses he never ever gave us.He continued to trust in God. One
thing that Moses mistake that he madewas listening to the people. He allowed
the people to frustrate him this pointwhere instead of him on being God to
speak to the rock, he endedup tracking the rock. And when that
(11:01):
happened, it caused him the opportunityof really going into the phase of trumpt
I just want to go back tothrough the running in with thirty Jepter,
because it goes back and it resignatedvery well that sixteen versays he said,
command you today to love the Lordyour God, and to walk in obedience
to him. No one is exempt. Every person is responsible to walk in
(11:26):
obedience to be like, if youwant to get the goodest land, that
means that you got to you gottaope, You gotta be willing nick and
obedience. That's the issue. Everyoneis not willing and obedient. They want
to do their own thing. Youcannot do your own thing and expect to
get and move into the great placesthat God chance for you. I truly
believe that once you grab a holdof his principle, it's like taking inventory,
(11:50):
learning now to align your behavior withthe word of God so much so
that you are able to say,Lord, act in the way I should
react, and I'm not respunded theway should be responding. I need to
make sure that I'm able to makesure that I can examine correct those things
(12:11):
that does not reflect who you are. Well, Moses did a good job,
but let me tell you something.Joshua even took the people higher.
For the bottom line is this everythingthat Moses pretty much so had to encounter,
Joshua pretty much so had to encounter. Joshah pretty much so had to
help the people get to that placeof building their face govern the dollars,
they can move into a healthy placewhere they need to be. So tonight
(12:33):
we're gonna deal with faith, stayingin faith in order to get increased from
God, You've got to be ableto really stay in faith because one of
the big issues that we have is, you know, we can have faith,
but sometimes we like the patience forit. And while we're waiting under
blessing to men stens you've gotta stillremain in faith. So we're gonna jump
(12:54):
right up to the first tempathy thefourth chapter, the very first verse,
he said, now the Spirit speachit expressed it that in the latter time,
some ch'll depart from the faith,giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines
of death. Not the spirits.Said that in the last day there will
be those who would depart from thefaith once delivered to the saints, and
(13:15):
give their attention to deceitful nine spirits. This reveals that the actual origin of
the distortions are seducing spirits whose natureis to lie. And that's exactly what
the enemy does. He is andthere's no truths found in it. This
should not surprise us, for theHoly Spirit said it would occur now,
Paul. He made the same pointor old in Galatians to third chapter the
(13:37):
first person, when he spoke ofthe Galatians being bewitched. I look when
he said, who else be witchyou? Old relations? In other words,
you know Jesus died for you,and now you are into the place.
You know, gentiles are now cominginto the Christian world, And now
all of a sudden someone has talkingto you and talked you out of everything
(13:58):
that God has now made to youthrough his dear son. And it's the
same way that's happened today. Wehave to go back and make sure,
thanks to God, that we're notallowed that enegy to rob us, to
steal from us, to kill anddestroy us, to keep us in a
retreat mode versus advancing mode, becausewhen this happened, will end up backing
(14:18):
off, not being able to moveforward in the very thing that God told
us do, because we'll forget theword of God. Well, we should
always have the word of God asa remembrance to keep moving forward. Now,
the phrase shall depart is a Greekverb, and that verb is a
fist to me. And this Greekword means to cause, to withdraw,
(14:41):
to desert, or to go away, to depart. And there are so
many people that are withdrawn, they'vedeserted, they've gone away, they've departed,
And this departure indicates a deliberate choiceto remove from a former position.
But I truly believe that when weare talking about faith, we have to
(15:03):
we have to. I mean,we got we gotta put, we got
to put the stake in the groundand say I shall not be moved.
Got have a mindset that bulletdog thatsays, once you get that bone and
my mind, ain't nobody taking itout. I'm gonna chew on it.
I'm gonna now on it until Iam done with it. So in this
event that we're gonna walk by faith, our mindset has to be We're not
(15:24):
going anywhere. We're gonna stand onthe word of God. And it does
not matter how long we stand.We will not change our positions. We
will not budge, we will staywith God. Now, faith is the
biblical truth, uh as it ispresented about the Apostles and the Holy Scripture.
So we learn from this text thatabout feeling and desires a company apostasy
(15:48):
are really cleverly disguised demonic the deception, and that's all we is the deception,
and it is a distraction. Sono one would ever turn away from
the goodness of God without the moonicdeception. Let me tell you something.
That's the reason why you got toguard your heart with all diligence, because
(16:08):
let me tell you something. Theenemy is on a problem. He's looking
to see whom he can divil andif he can devalue, he will steal
from you, he will kill,he will take everything that God has from
us you. And let me tellyou what all the promises are. Yes
and amen. And God is nota respect of a person. I mean,
(16:29):
he's not a respective person, buta respect of my faith. I
cannot allow nothing to tamper with mindfaith. You can't allow nothing to tamper
with your faith. You got tobuild yourself up when nobody else builds you
up. You got to get inthat word. When nobody else will preach
to you or teach to you,you got to listen. Because faith coming
by hearing and hearing by the wordof God. We're overcomers by the by
(16:53):
the blood of the limit, bywords, by testimony. But we have
faith is the venture overcoming the world. So that means that our faith trout
every scenario. We win in everysituation. Now, there are five elements
of faith that a just talk aboutto night. Number one is hearing.
We know that the Word says nonfaith coming by hearing and hearing by the
(17:15):
word of God. Not only doesthis come by hearing, you got to
be able to receive the word andwhat I mean receive it. It's like
a gift given unto you. Youknow, you got to be able to
perceive it and receive it, knowingthat there are no negatives about this.
But this is the bona fide naturalword of God that He has placed in
our lives. Not only just perceiveit, God will believe it. People
(17:36):
of life. You got to getit in your knowing that regardless of what
your circumstances situation looks like, youwill receive the word. Listen, when
you hear the word, you receivethe word, and you believe the word.
Something will motivate you to speak theword now every morning again, believe
it. God responsibility is to speakit. Now. You can read the
word and never make a sound.And I wanted to say, Faith,
(17:59):
that's coming. Faith come by hearing. That's why it's important for you to
read out loud. Sometimes it's importantHe just makes some decorations. It's important
for you to be able to goforth and make sure that you are able
to get yourself in a place that'sgood. Let's just make a couple of
Faith's confessions right now today. Inthe name of Jesus, I believe that
(18:21):
God will do everything that he saidhe will do. I am a believer
I believe God's words. I amwhat the Word says I am. I
have what the Word says I have. I can do what the word says
I can do. In Jesus' name, I render ineffective every negative word I
(18:41):
have spoken, every negative thing thatI have thought, every word and thought
that has been contrary to the truthof God's words. From this moment forward,
I will acknowledge only the good thingsthat are in me in Christ Jesus.
I am saying it now. Outof the good treasures though my heart,
only good things will come to pass. I am a righteousness of God.
(19:06):
I am a new creation. Iam an era of God. I
am a joint heir with Jesus thority. God Come on, says with me.
I have been delivered from the powerof darkness, and I have been
translated into the kingdom of God's dearson. I have been redeemed by the
blood of the Lamb. I've beenredeemed from the curse of the law.
(19:26):
I've been redeemed from sickness and disease. I have been redeemed from poverty.
And from this I can do allthings through Christ, who strengthens me.
I am more than a conqueror morethan a comfortable I'm feeling really good now.
Just feel good. He never needsme, neither does he forsake me.
(19:47):
Since the Greater One dwells within me, I can overcome every situation.
The faith of God resigns within me, and through it I have the victory
that overcomes the world. Faith isthe victory that overcomes the Word. And
because faith does in me, Iovercome every scenario that the world presents before
(20:10):
me because of the faith that lieson the inside of me. Oh Father,
I thank you right now. Ithank you that I can't have all
these things I've been needed in myheart. I've released it with my mouth,
so be it. It will surelycome to pass in Jesus' name.
Amen. Now, what did Ijust do? I just spoke the Word
of God. And the word thatI just spoke it was nothing but just
(20:33):
it was saturated with faith scriptures.But that means now I said it about
loud. Guess what's happened. Iheard it, I received it. I'm
believe in it. I spoke it, and just what I'm going to begin
to do, I'm acting on itnow. So all these things that I'm
saying, I'm going to align mybehavior with the Word of God so that
(20:56):
I can remain in faith, stayin faith, so that I can carry
out the assignment that God has givenme. Why Because somebody needs the blessing
that is on my life, andsomebody needs the blessing that is on your
life. It is critical that youbegin to move forward to do the very
(21:17):
things that God has instructed you todo and be the person that God wants
you to become. Faith is aspiritual force that causes the blessings that God
promised in his Word to manifest inthe natural world. So that means that
when I do those things, whenI receive those things, somebody is going
to get blessed. Whatever you arebelieving for hoping for, whether it be
(21:38):
healing your finances, a new home, or a new car. Faith in
God turns that hope into a tangiblesubstance. Out fred again, faith in
God, it turns that hope intoa tangible substance. Faith in God's Word
is the way we receive everything fromGod's Why it's critical that you stay in
(22:02):
faith. It's critical that you feedyour faith and starve your doubts. We
must say in faith, we muststay in faith and constantly do check up
off our faith to make sure thatwe are faith strong. We got to
imagine that we're faith strunk. AndI can tell every time when I get
in a little weak area of myfaith because I've become more sensitive things that
(22:25):
I'm hearing and seeing, and Iknow that the Scripture teaches us that we
walk by faith and not by sack. And we have to get to that
place where we are setting our fletshipson things that are above, things that
are internal. Let me tell yousomething, even when I don't see it,
God is working. When you don'tsee it, God is working.
And you got to get to thisplace where the word of God becomes a
(22:47):
comfort one to you. The wordof God becomes that place of it just
really just gives you the assurance inknowing that God is going to do and
God is going to He's going tobring it to pass every thing that he
says that he would bring it topass. Now, O Brady, he
Brews the eleventh chapter. I wantto get it in life because I want
(23:07):
to make sure that we begin tohappened in this Itrews eleven chapter, the
first verse. It is not faith, it's of things hoped for the evidence
of things God sing, God iscertain, is not sweet, but I
want to make sure we did it. Here the first word faith and HEREWS
eleven is translated from the Greek wordpiss us. It is well known word
that comes from the root that meansto persuade, to trust, or to
(23:30):
believe. So that means that,you know, we got to add that.
We got to be persuaded, fullypersuaded. We got to be able
to trust, and we got todefinitely be able to believe it. It
pictures a divine spark given by Godthat enables you to believe. And in
ancient times the word pictures refer toa guarantee or warranty of something that was
(23:56):
sure. But you know, Abrahamwas full of persuade. To remember the
script you're over in Roman sup fourthchapter. Let me go there and read
the right foot teeth, because Iwant you to get this. We got
to come to the place where weare fully persuaded. We're not just going
through the motion, but we're fullypersuaded. Let me tell you something,
when God promise you something, yougotta be fully persuaded, or else the
(24:18):
devil will come and try to persuadeyou not to be in faith, but
to get over into fear that it'snot going to happen. So in your
mind, you have to begin torenew your mind. You got to begin
to make sure that you are castingdown again all bad thoughts, all negative
imagination that will try to exalt itselfagainst the knowledge of God. And I'm
(24:41):
gonna tell you something. Only thingthat's going to try to exort itself against
the knowledge of God is some crazinessthat the in me will bring your way
over. In Rome's a fourth chapter, I want to start there. I
like this because of verse seventeen sisas it is written, I made these
talking to Abraham. Here, letme back it up. It says death
in verse sixteen death or it isa faith that it might feed by grace
(25:06):
to the end. The promise mightbe sure to all the seed. Promise
might be sure to all the seed, not to that only which is of
law, but to that also whichis of the faith of Abraham, who
is the father of us. All. So that means that you know all
because of what he ended up doing. You know, he made a lot
(25:26):
of mistake, but then he makesgood choices by getting an agreement with God
first seventeen sus. As it iswritten, I had made be a father
of many nations before before him whomhe believes, even God who quickened the
dead, and calling those things whichbe not as those they were, wholl
(25:48):
gets hope, believes in hope thathe might become the father of many nations
according to that which was spoken,those shall thy seed feed, and being
not weak in faith, this griefhe considered not his own body now did
when he was about one hundred yearsold, neither yet the defence of Sarah's
wounds, and the scripture says hestaggered not at the promises of God.
(26:14):
At the promise of God, dounbelief. But he was strong in faith,
giving glory to God and being fullypersuaded that what God had promised he
was able to perform it. Ijust believe when you start talking about being
fully persuaded, when you're talking aboutthat word pisses, you got to be
(26:34):
fully persuaded that what God has promisedhe is able to perform it. Now.
The grief word for pisted us alsodepicts something moving forward, like a
force that is propelled forward and ismoving toward a goal. We talked there
early about movement, and movement enough, but moving in a direction that you're
(26:57):
able to reach this goal. Nowhere we go back and look at faith
is like a bullet shot from agun. Once it is released, it
moves forward and never stops until itreaches its goal. To be clear,
this means real faith is never inretreat. In other words, it doesn't
go backwards, It doesn't go sitin the corner, it doesn't go sit
(27:18):
down. It might need to regroup, but it never stops. So if
you're in treat, you are notmoving in faith. In fact, if
you're in spear, you're not movingin faith. Why because God has not
giving you the spirit of fear,of power, love, and a sound
mind. In other words, substancemeans to stand. Literally, it means
to stand by something. It refersto the attitude and actions of one who
(27:42):
has been determined to stand by somethingpromised and refuse this to budge from it.
It pictures a fixed decision that onehas made to be unmoving and to
stay or stand by the promise thathe is believing will come to parents.
But that means that if I stickat my body and I'm believing God by
(28:03):
faith that I would be healed,so I would tell what the doctor says.
I have to stand on the words. I have to stand on the
promises that I know that God hasoffered spoke in concerned in my healing,
regardless of what goes on his forast the pain of his concerned. Iaint
love. It could take you toa place where it could make you say
something that is not of faith.But the reality is you still have to
(28:25):
go back in and decree and declarethe word of God. I remember years
ago that was one of the choirmembers of mine who was very faithful and
love the Lord, loved the wordof God. And boy, she got
sick, and I remember she hadtheir doct noster with cancer. And I
remember how the testimony of the saintswere that would go see her, and
(28:48):
they were saying that many times thather body was in so much pain that
she never ever said, oh ithurts. She just every time the pain
hitter, she thanked God for herAnd no one really knew exactly where she
was coming from, but she thankedGod for what she was believing for it
to happen in her life. Sothat means that she was not moved.
(29:08):
She was unmoved, and she stayedstanding on the promises of what she was
believing that was going to come topast. And guess what, it came
past and she got our heels Andit has to be the same thing.
If it worked, then it stillworks today. And I think that's a
big issue that we need more testimoniesof the power of God to heal,
(29:30):
we need more testimonies of the powerof God to deliver, We need more
testimonies of the power of God toprosper in people. Because some people just
only believe that this is for certainpeople. No, it is for all
people of faith, all people whowill get into this face and say I
won't be moved. I'm going tokeep standing. I'm going to keep moving
in the direction that God will haveus to move in glory to God.
(29:53):
Now, in the same way,when you in faith, you relentlessly stand
by what God has said in hisword like a bulldog plunge into that bone.
You continue to tenaciously hold on toHis promises until they become a reality
in your life. As an example, let's say you have been standing by
God, by God's promise for healingand half chosen. You'll never let go
(30:18):
until your healing is manifest. Butlet's say you've been standing by God's promise
for financial provision or the restoration ofa relationship, and just like the bulldog
or refusal that goes his bone,you are holding on and standing by God's
promise. I said, you areholding on and standing by God's promises.
(30:40):
Let me just say it to youover in the Book of Hebrew eleven,
chapter is the Hebrew the Hall ofFame. Faith. There were some things
that believe God, and they diedthe believing God. But they died in
faith. My goodness, glory toGod. I said, they died believing
God. They died in faith.They are the words. You have to
(31:00):
decided that you will never let goof the promise until it is manifested in
your life. I want to seethe blessings of God in this life of
minds. I don't want to dieand miss I don't know those things.
I want to be able to tapinto every promise. Everything that he says
the other words, hoped for isa confident expectation of something. It is
(31:22):
a competent expectation of something. Inother words, it does not mean I
hope this will happen. But insteadit means I confidently expect it to happen.
You know what I just said,Not that I hope it will happen.
It means I confidently expect this tohappen. I want to send the
Lord. I confident believe that thisis going to happen. Although it had
(31:44):
not happened yet, there is anactive expectation that it will take place.
And it's I mean when it takesplace, it doesn't matter what it takes
place today, for to take placetomorrow, on the next month, the
next year of the year after that, I have to remain in faith.
It's sometimes continuously being hopeful even ifthe manifested manifestation hath not just yet.
(32:08):
Come now. The other words,here is evidence. It means to convict
someone of something. That's when you'rein faith, you have a very strong
conviction that what God has promised isundoubtedly going to happen. And you can
say you can, you can,you can, you can you can market
all or whatever while you want amarket. If God said it, and
(32:29):
you stand by his word and youwait on Him to manifest it, it
will undoubtedly happen. Glory God,I said it is going to undominantly happen
now. Jumping on down the Hebrewsto the eleven chapter, the sixth verse,
Praise God, Amen. It said, without faith, it's impossible to
place him. For he that comesto God, he must believe that he
(32:51):
is, that he is a rewardon them that delegitly seek him. I've
said this on Sundays. I appreciatethis word. It says. Most people
think that the words without faith describedan absence of faith. But the word
without is really transferred from the Greekword chorus th h o r i is,
and it means without as being outsideof a specific place. For this
(33:15):
word chorus translated here as without,It describes faith as a location lord to
God. But that means that youcan either be in or out. That
means that faith is a place,and you can be in faith or out
of faith. And a lot ofpeople think that they're in faith, Really
they are out of faith. Sowhat does it mean for you to be
(33:37):
in faith or to stay in aplace of faith? It means to continuously
stand by and stay with the callingor promise that God has made to you.
That calling or promise is your assignment. It is the location where you
need to be, and you canstay in it or you can move out
(33:57):
of it. But when you moveout of it, you move out of
faith. So what am I sayingtonight is stay in faith. This means
that you have made the decisions tobe unmoving and that you will not budge
from the calling or the promise ofGod that He's made under you. It
means you're going to be belligerently standby it until you see his manifestation.
(34:21):
It means that you're going to belligerentlystand by it until you see it's manifestation.
Not to be without faith means tobe outside of faith, to move
out or to leave your assignment ofpromise. He loves letter success when you
when one abandon the assignment of promiseof God, it is impossible for him
(34:44):
or her to please him in thatplace. Why, because you moved out
from what God has instructed for youto do. That's why I have to
go back and read that again.Glory to God. That is a good
thing. But without faith, it'simpossible to please him. So that means
that I've got to stand in fact, I got to carry for the assignment.
Otherwise I'm letting him down, forhe that comes to God must believe
(35:07):
that He is and that He isa rewarder of them that diligente seek him.
Glory to God. So to stayin faith it means to stick with
the assignment, stick with the calling, stick with the promises that God gave
you. It is your place offaith. If you want to bring pleasure
to God, you have to stayin faith. That means that you have
(35:28):
to stay in alignment with what Godhas called you to do, or stick
with what He has promised you staywith his word. You must be determined
to stay there until you never proceedsor fulfilled what God has said, and
he proved repleens. He says thatwhen you stay in faith in that way,
you will leave God. And Isay it this way. I would
(35:52):
have feigned unless I believe to seethe goodness of the Lord in the land
of the Living. Wait on theLord. I want to be of good
courage because I know that He's goingto spend in my heart. And as
he's spending my I can wait.I say on the Lord. So that
means that I am going to stand, stand, stand, and that's all
twenty seven thirteen and fourteen that Ijust court. It is a biggie because
(36:15):
it's something that we got to understand. I ain't say I ain't giving up.
I'm going to see the blessings ofGod in my life now. But
then the Hebrews Episodes goes on tosay that God is every warder we talked
about this this week of them thatdiligently seek him. That word rewarded is
a Greek word that means and describeshe gives the money. He gives a
(36:36):
seller there's a payment that is due. It can also describe the recommens,
reimbursement, settlement, or reparation.It depicts being a reiverse for an expense
a person has paid out of hisown talking and the other in order to
get his job done, a fulland complete recompense is given. So in
this verse it denotes the one whopays, the one who rewards for the
(37:00):
one who gives what one has comingto him. Or he talks about the
pay master. You know who thepay master is. The pay master is
nobody. But God, let metell you something. For every every diligence
seeker, there is a paymaster,God the Father, and he's gonna make
sure that payday is coming. Andthen that payday is coming. This lessons
(37:23):
know that when you get into agreementwith the promises of God that you that
God has given you, and youchoose to stay in faith, which includes
standing in that place He's designed youto be, or sticking with the promise
of God made to you, amoment will finally come when God, the
great Paymaster, will richly reward youwith his rewards, and He will fully
(37:45):
recompense and richly reimburse you for everythingthat you have invested along the way.
And as you stand in your placeand faith come on, that will be
great rewards. There will be greatrewards. So I'm just gonna break it
down and say, Number one,you gotta believe what God has said when
He's spoken to you. Number two, you must stand by it, stick
(38:07):
with it, and never bulge fromit. Don't let the wind, don't
let any of that get you tothe place. But he calls you to
move and get out of the position. Stay in your position. Stay in
your position. Number three, youmust know that heyday is coming when God
will reward you or stand in faith. And let me tell you something that
(38:29):
is such a profound moment, becausepayday is coming. I said payday is
coming. So I'll ask you thequestion tonight is what is assignment or the
calling that God has given you?What is the promise of God's work that
you have been standing on? Andif you will stay in faith and refuse
to move away from what God hastold you or promise you, You're gonna
(38:52):
You're gonna witness His power. You'regonna witness his promise being or at least
on you. And in spite ofanything going on around you, this will
cause you to be unmoved, unshaken, and well provided for. And this
kind of bulldog faith will always producea design assurance is gonna always produce divine
(39:14):
peace, is gonna always produce andrelease divine power, And it's gonna release
divine and supernatural victory. And I'mtelling you is nothing like when you get
that thing released under you, you'reseeing the God of miracles just begin to
flood your household with nothing but hisblessings. You know, and I want
(39:36):
you to know that faith is thevictory that overcomes the world. I mean
true faith coming by hearing and hearingby the word of God. And because
of these things, we gotta makesure that we are standing on the word.
We got to make sure that weare not being moved by the foolishes,
because if we are moved by thefoolishes, will end up getting distracted.
(40:00):
And one of the things that wehave to really deal with with with
with dead in faith, it's adistraction because they're gonna come around you.
There will be there distractions or focusingon what is being done around you,
focusing on what the media is saying, focusing on what the world is saying,
focusing on what unbelieving believers say ratherthan what the words is. The
(40:22):
find is very important for you tokeep yourself in aflate some faith and make
sure that you are always having nothingbut word kind of at your disposal.
Propers the fourth chapter, the twentythird verse, it says, keep thy
hard with all diligence, for outof it are the issues of life.
(40:45):
Out of it are the issues oflife. In the room of it says
it goes on and says, don'tlet your eyes look to the rider took
the Let me read it if Itook it, so you can see.
Verse twenty five says, let thineeyes look right on and let thine eye
is look straight before thee in otherwords, you don't even need to be
looking out the corner of your eyes. Don't even be trying to connect with
(41:06):
people. That when people are talkingabout people in there looking at each other
and you know they have a problem. They're not really speaking the same words,
but they're really connecting with their eyes. And I'm telling you you need
to have your eyes sent on Jesus. You need to have your eyes fixed
on him. Strip you says,you said, let thine eyes look right
on and let thine eye needs lookstraight before the ponder the path of my
(41:30):
feet, and let all thy waysbe established. Turn out to the right
hand, nor to the left,remove thy foot from evil. I'm gonna
read this in the American Standard Bible, and like this it is, let
your eyes look dylity ahead, andlet your gaze be fixed straight in front
(41:52):
of your other gage or some things, but it's in that today's be fixed
straight in front of you. Watchthe path of your feet, and all
of your ways will be established.Do not turn to the right, nor
to the lift. But he says, turn your foot from evil. Turn
your foot wrong, evil, Turnyour foot wrong evil. It is critically
(42:17):
important. But you don't understand that. You know you gotta look right ahead.
You know. It speaks of theimportance of protecting your heart with all
diligence. You gotta protect your heartby being careful about what you are looking
at and what and who you arelistening to. Us said, what you're
looking at and who you are listeningto. Your eyes and your ears are
(42:38):
the gateway to your heart. Andwhatever you see and whatever you hear,
it can get into your heart.And if it gets into your heart,
it starts to come outside of yourmouth. It gets into your heart,
it can come outside of my wifebecause out of the abundance of the heart
(42:59):
the mouth feet. Now, whenit comes out of your mouth, you
are releasing an energy and you willend up having what you say. You
don't want to real need something whereyou know you end up have end up
having what you said. That's whythe scripture says depth in life is in
the power of the tongue. ButI'm gonna go back and say, not
(43:19):
only is death in life in thefollow of the tongue. You gotta guard
your heart with all diligence so thatSteff will not get in you that has
no business being there. I'm tellingyou, even as we begin to look
at this tonight. I'm thinking,God, you gotta go back and you
gotta look at the word of Godas it pertain to stand and face.
Stand and face means that you knowyou gotta hold on. You gotta hold
(43:39):
on first time. And then thefirst chapter the nineteen versus a holding faith
and a good conscious which some havebeen put away concerning faith have made Shipwright.
In other words, keep a firmgrip on your face because this is
not the time to let go ofyour faith. You're going to need your
faith more now than you ever neededit before. I like the fourth chapter,
(44:02):
the fifteen verse, it's just meditateupon these things, give thyself holy
to them, that thy prophety mayappear to all. Let me tell you
something I found this over in thePassion and Translation, which I thought was
absolutely amazing. It's just make allof your constant meditation and make it real
(44:25):
with your life so everyone can seethat you're moving forward. You gotta tell
nobody. Everybody will see that youare moving forward. So you got the
same thing God. Meditate on thewords of Gud and you gotta get rid
of all of the distraction wise,because God is not giving you the spirit
of fear. But he's giving youpower, love and a sound mind.
(44:47):
And I love him. When hewas talking the Tennessee earlier, he's like,
you know, he said, Iremember your your your unfeigned faith that
is in you, which we firstin your grandmother, being in your mother,
and now I'm presared that's in youa also. And he said he
remember when he had laid hands onhim. He says that he told me
he put him and remembers he shouldstir up to get the God which was
in him by his putting on itin his hands. And when you said,
(45:10):
he said, God is not givingyou the spirit of fairs, the
power, love, and a soulmind. To now, I want you
to know that faith moved. Iwant you to know that in order for
you to get to that place whereGod wants you to be, You've got
to do some things in your ownpersonal time. You get the word,
you hear the word. But Itruly believe that God is saying that this
(45:30):
is today that we begin to move. You can be moving by stand in
the same place sometime, but yougot to make sure that God is telling
you to stand still and know thatHe is gone. But regardless of what
he's telling you. Once you getthe word, the spoken word, it
is your responsibility to stand on thepromise of God and not be moved.
(45:52):
I say, stand on the promiseof God and not be moved. It's
your position, is your place tostand in the side that God has given
you, and do not allow noone to get you off of the assignment.
Because there's something that God is tryingto do in your life. This
is the year that we're moving intothe supernatural increases. Let me tell you
(46:13):
every step is ordered of the Lord, and every step that you're taking,
every step that you may you needto be making, knowing it that God
has already given you instructions on howto do it, how to get there,
which role to take, which rolenot to take it. I'm telling
you, just doing it his wayis nothing like surrendering to God so that
he can't be glorify so he can, at the end of the day get
(46:37):
the honor that is due unto him. And guess what, as we do
that for him, he becomes sowell pleased with us. And I'm telling
you, I want to make ithappy. I want to make my God
happy. And I'm asking you youdo the same thing, because when you
start looking at the scripture, itsthat but thout faith, it's impossible to
(46:58):
leave him. So if it's possibleto please him without faith, I want
to have faith so that I canmake him happy, that I can make
him love h to make him justexcited that I am his son. He's
exciting anyway, regardless to the stepsI make or don't make. But the
bottom line is, I purposely wantto make sure that as he sits on
the throne in thevi and if helook down in the earth to watch me
(47:22):
carry out my day to day assignment, that he can think by this is
good. Lucius is doing exactly whatI need him to do. And I
want my God to feel good thatI wanted to feel good and knowing that
I have received those words, andI'm going to make sure that I could
do my very best to carry outbe assiment. That's why I have to
(47:42):
realize is not by my mind norby my power, but by His spirit,
says the Lord. I trust HolySpirit to do what to do,
the natural, to do the supernaturalthing in me to get me to the
place that I need to be sothat I can win. When when in
every aspect of my life. Ilove about you, but I want to
(48:05):
be a winner and I want youto win just just as will. And
I want you to come to thisplace for you know that you hold faith
with a good conscious and you knowyou make sure that you know that people
can see the good works in you, and you know I can tell him.
You just keep moving forward. Youjust keep moving forward. You keep
moving forward, and you keep carryingout the orders of the day. And
(48:28):
I guarantee you people will know thatthere is a God and that God lives
big on the inside of you.And because he lives big on the inside
of you, somebody's going to getblessed. Let me tell you something you
might give. You might as wellacknowledge the fact that you know God has
already has already made the way.God has already given you the word it.
(48:49):
Because He's given you the word,you receive the life of bulldog.
You're not gonna bulve, you're notgonna be moved, You're not going to
retreat, but you are moving forward. I just move it forward. And
when you're moving forward, there isno stopping you. At this moment,
they don't stopping me. So let'sdo this thing together. Let us be
a force in the earth that cannotbe refluent by no the mondic spirits of
(49:14):
no power from the enemy. Becausewe have the word of faith, and
because we have that word of faith, we'll walk by faith, we'll talk
by faith, we'll live by faith. We're dream faith. Glory to God.
We'll do everything by faith. Andnot only that, we will overcome
every obstitle that will get in ourway because faith is the victory that's over
(49:34):
coming the world. Well, letme tell you something. Going over a
little bit of my time, buttonight, I am just letting you know
