just the Word of God with Reverend Sylvester on KCAA.
Here is Reverend Sylvester.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Father, in the name of Jesus, we thank you today.
We thank you for another opportunity just to call your name,
just to present ourselves before you. Not on as we
go into your word. I fear you, bless every listener,
every person on the sound of my voice, in the
name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
And we thank you Lord, Amen, God, bless you. I
(00:51):
hope all has been well, and all is well. Go
with me the Matthew Chapter four. Matthew Chapter four, and
the topic of the message is gonna be led by
the Spirit. Led by the Spirit. Then Jesus was led
by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by
(01:14):
the devil. Jesus was led into the wilderness by his
father to be tempted by the devil. We have a
problems with trials and trimulations every one of us do.
We all have a problem with him. We want things
(01:37):
to go smooth. I do all the time. I'd rather
have peace at twenty four seven than anything else, But
it seemed like that's not possible all the time. Jesus,
you would not have expected him to have to go
through this in order to prove a point, but his
(02:00):
father felt that he needed to be tried in order
to show the devil who was the strongest. Now, when
we accept Christ, we have to go through changes, ups
and down, bumps and knocks. The son say, I fall down,
(02:21):
but it's not how you get up the way you
feel down. You're gonna get up different, and you're supposed
to come up stronger. You're supposed to come up with
more confidence. You're supposed to come up with more wisdom
and understanding, not come up as foolish as you was
when you fell down. Amen. It's like riding the bike
(02:43):
when you on that bike when they done took the
training wheels off of it when you were younger, and
you ride that bike and after you fall, you figure
out how to keep those handlevars in that bike up
so you don't fall again, and stretch your legs because
the pain that it broke. When you feel at your
leg or your hand or your face. You didn't want
to experience that pain no more. So you learned how
(03:06):
to ride that bank the right way. Amen. So in
this case, it's the same thing when you're going through trials.
Because you declare that you are Christian, when you declare
that you believe God, you're going to have trials and tribulations.
I'm reminded of Paul when the snake got on him,
(03:27):
and because Jesus has said in his word that no
deadly thing could hurt you. It was proven to Paul
when the snake attached itself to his arm when he
went to pick up sticks in Acts, chapter twenty eight.
And the people expected Paul to fall out dead, they
expected him to swell up, but when he shook it off,
(03:49):
they said, this man must be a God. God demonstrated
his spirit and his word through Paul in regards dards
to if any deadly thing it won't hurt you, and
it did not. You See. So we come to the
(04:10):
place that we say we trust in the God. We
believe in God, and we're holding on to God. But
when the trials come, we seem to thin out. Sometime
the real us come out. Let's just face reality. The
real us come out, and it comes out greater than
what we expected. But always save God uses that to
(04:32):
show us what's in us in order for what we
need to work on in our lives to be a
better Christian. Knowing not we can work on, but He
has to work on it. And if we have to
surrender enough to him in order for Him to take
it out of us and wash us and make us clean.
So when it comes down to it, Jesus sent, God
(04:55):
sent Jesus, excuse me to be tried up the devil
by the devil, led by the spirit. If you're led
by the spirit, you gonna be tried. If he advising
you and his word abide in you, you're gonna be tried.
And the only way I found to overcome the trial
(05:17):
and when the battle is through his word is by
having his word on the tip of your tongue, knowing
his word, being able to speak his word in the
right situation and in the right circumstances in order for
his word to take effect and perform the miracle right
before your eyes that you need to be performed. The
(05:40):
word see and when you've got his word in you
and with you. His word would defen you. His word
will bring you through a storm. Yes, his word will
deliver you from everything that's not like him. After after
(06:04):
fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. The
tempter came to him and said, if you are the
son of God, tell these stones to become bred. Now,
first thing he did was brought doubt. That's the first
thing they ever do is bring doubt in your mind.
He filled your mind with doubt. Before you say I can,
(06:28):
you'll say you can't. He knew that Jesus was the
son of God. The evil knew it all the time.
It wasn't a question. The question was did Jesus know
he was the son of God. This is what the
devil was trying to establish in him. He was trying
(06:49):
to make him weak because he first thing he said,
if you are, if you think you are, can you
prove that you are? Can when you demonstrate the power
of God, to prove that you are a believer, that
you are a Christian, and that you have the faith
to move a mountain. Because Jesus said, these signs shall
(07:12):
follow them that believe in my name. Thou shall tread
up on surface demons and devils of all kinds of nature.
In my name, Thou shall lay hands on the sick,
and they shall recover. He demonstrated that through Paul in
Acts twenty eight, when Paul laid hands on the man's father.
The man's father in law was suffering with a fever.
(07:36):
Paul went and prayed for him and the fever left. Now,
that type of fever there, they said, usually last four months,
but then sometimes they've known that fever the last two
or three years. But Jesus demonstrated his self through Paul
by having him to lay hands. Now, if somebody tell
(07:59):
you they have a head ache, do you pray for
the headache or do you tell 'em to go get
a time? No, which faith do you have? Uh? I?
I just wonder, I'm an well, think about it? Which
faith do you have? When someone say they blood pressures
up and it's finding, which faith do you have? You
tell 'em to go get a aspir or call the doctor,
(08:20):
or do you pray for him? We all are supposed
to be able to demonstrate this power of God. Every
one of us is supposed to be a demonstrated It's
not just one person. When you feeling bad, do you
pray for yourself? Do you call 'em the name of Jesus?
(08:43):
Or do you just call somebody else to pray for you.
It's okay to touch and a greed. I believe in that,
But I also believe that we all sposed to have
this power 'em that whereas we can speak it, then
it has to go now. But the devil brings down
(09:03):
in us, just like he tried to bring doubt in
Jesus verse for it. Jesus answered, it is written man
shall not live by bread alone, but by every word
that cometh from the mouth of God. Now, the devil
told Jesus told the devil, bread ain't gonna help If
(09:23):
I turn it into bread. It ain't gonna benefit me.
It ain't gonna help me in no shape, form or fashion.
So why would I even prove to you by making
it bread. Jesus showed him up. It wouldn't make no
sense it It made no sense to nobody for the
devil to tell him to turn the stones in the bread.
(09:43):
Jesus wasn't hungry, or may he have been, but that's
not what he wanted. Maybe the devil was hungry. He
wanted Jesus to make him some bread. That's all I'm
think of it. But Jesus answered, and man shall not
live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds.
Get out of the mouth of God led by the spirit.
(10:05):
Now the word, Jesus said, the word, you will live with,
the word you will live. Without the word, you won't live.
David said, that word have I hid in my heart
that I might not sin against them? The Word of
God is your strong power. The Word of God is
(10:27):
your defense. The word of God is your deliverance. The
Word of God is your healing. The Word of God
is your strength. The Word of God is your backbone.
The Word of God is your joy. Thank God. Then
the devil took him up to the Holy City and
(10:49):
had him stand on the highest point of the temple.
If you are the son of God, he said, throw
yourself down, for it is written that he go with
that doubt. Again. See y'all sit up and listen to
folk that tell you ain't got no strength, you ain't
(11:10):
got no power, you ain't got no ability, And you
feast on that. The Bible said, you believe alie before
you with the truth. The Bible said that you have
the same authority. You have the same Jesus that the
preacher has, that the choir has, that the praise leader have,
(11:31):
that the deliverous minister have. You have the same Jesus
and the same power. You just do not allow it
to be demonstrated through you. You would rather see it
through somebody else than through you. It ain't about that
Jesus didn't give it to you, cause Jesus said, when
you first got saved, he gave you the Holy ghost.
(11:53):
It just has to be developed. But you would rather
sit back and watch somebody else do it than you.
So how can you say you're a Christian when you
don't demonstrate none of the power that Christ has imparted
into you. See, it's one thing about it. The devil
(12:15):
brings so much weakness and doubt in you. Some of
us would rather sit on a weak spirit from the
devil than to stent on the word of God. The
word of God. All you've got to do is speak
it and believe it, and they'll come to pass. See,
He's there to perform his word. And if you're one
(12:36):
of his kids and you speak his word, his word's
gonna come to pass, Oh, it'll come to past. Because
God is your insurance that his word will come to past.
He'll back his word up through your mouth. He'll back
his word up through you. He will back up your prayers.
If you go on a hospital and start laying their
(12:56):
hands on sick people, God will back you up a hundred.
He'll stand beside you'll see sick people getting up off
the sick bed. Because that's the kind of Jesus. You know,
that's the kind of faith we're supposed to have. And
if you are a son of God, if see the devil, always,
if it you, if if ain't no imf are you
(13:19):
either an a house? You either son of God or
you not you're child of the most high King? Or
you in you believe that He died and rows on
the third day, and that he sits on the right
hand side of the Father, and that all power in
heaven and earth is in his hand, and that it's
in you because you're a part of him and he's
a part of you, and that you're living for him
(13:40):
and he's living through you and in you, and that
you can do anything through Christ. I can do all
things through Christ. That strengthens me. He strengthens you. He
anointed you to go forth in his word to demonstrate
his power. He wants you to do that. I don't
want you to sit back and be weak. Now, why
(14:04):
with the devil telling him to throw hisself off of
Jesus didn't have to throw hisself off of mountain. Jesus
had his ability to get to see and underscend. Jesus
could stand up and not even have to stand on
the mountain. He could float, come on boat, shutting out
an no, sire, He didn't have to stand that. He
was only playing the devil to show the devil that
(14:26):
he didn't have nothing. He played along with the devil's game.
And then he turned around and watch what it's coming.
It's coming see. And that's the whole thing about it
with you. You ain't playing with his game. You believe in
the devil's game. You're walking in the devil's game. You
accepting what he brings to your mind. The devil is alive.
(14:49):
My God Hallylujah wanted to for save him. But if
you are the son of God, he said, throw yourself down,
for it is written. He would command the aim angel
his angels concerning you, and they will lift you up
in their hands so that you will not strike your
foot against the stone. Now look, the devil either knows
(15:11):
the word. The devil know the word. You see that
the devil know the word better than some of y'all
that're saying you're a Christian. He knew the word. He
quoted the word to Jesus. Now you see I bowld
the devil is he quoted the word to the devil.
See the word the devil know how to take the
scriptures and mix them up in your mind. Where you
have a scripture that says I can do all things
(15:33):
through Christ that strengthened me. He'll come along, he'll be killed.
Come along with the scripture that says lay hands suddenly
on no man. See, he always got a way of
deceiving you and stopping you. You see what I'm saying.
He took that same scripture and stopped you from allowing
the spirit of the Lord to use you, or for
you even trying to spirit the Bible. Say, try to
(15:55):
spill it and see if it's a god. See. But
that's the scripture he brought right there, and he told,
he told Jesus, he said he'd give his angels charge
over you. He said he would do this. Now, see
he already knew. See the devil ain't fooling nobody but you.
(16:16):
He he's wise about him, said, the devil is a
wise sercit You got to ire smarted. You got to
be wiser than his. When he come in your head
and tell you what you can't do, you got to
step back and tell him I can do all things
through Christ that strengthened me. You got the rise, take
(16:37):
up your bed and walk, to take up your mind
and get it loose from what you tied up in
hollered Lujah. Stop listening to folk and mess and garbage,
and start hearing the voice of the Lord, my Jesus,
Thank God. Look at all this mess going on in
church with these preachers y'all been following and chasing. He
(16:58):
had another one messing with children. I'm telling you see,
y'all following mess, and it ain't even of God. Listening
to stuff that ain't got nothing to do with God.
Asking them to pray for you when you needed to
been praying for him, messing with children. The other one
messing with homosexus, another one stealing. Stop following these folk
(17:19):
and following Jesus, hollering, Lujah called albo shine shine, I
seek here, I know shot one not for safety, one
not for savi. Here, stop following folk and follow Jesus.
You follow Jesus, You'll be all right, led by the spirit,
Led by the spirit, Thank God. Jesus answered him, I
(17:41):
mean it is. It is also written. Do not put
the Lord your God to the test or oh uh oh.
Jesus came back at him, Tell him you don't test God.
You don't test God. Who are you? My God takes
you back to when he talked to Joe. You go
a shout. How where was you when I made the
(18:02):
sea and I cut the earth and brought it to
where it was that? Where was you? Hadley Lujah verse eight,
And again the devil took him to a very high
mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world
and their splendor. Oh, devil went up there and showed
him what he already created. Now, God created the world
(18:23):
and everything in it. But the Bible say the earth
is the Lord's, and the foolers thereof and they that
Joel there is but the devil gonna show it what
was already his. See. Now, the song says, if you
live right, heaven belong to you. The devil we try
(18:48):
to make you feel that he gonna give you heaven
on earth, and he can he can't, but he would
make you think you got that. You ain't wonderful. Safe
at Clovid be to God, hallelujah, and all this. I
(19:10):
will kill you, he said, if you will bow down
and worship me, now, Jesus gonna give up his throat.
He gonna give up all of his authority and all
of his power to worship the same devil that his
(19:30):
father throwed out of heaven. And Jesus knew this, but
here come the devil. That's like people trying to take
other folks children poison in these kids mind, making them
think they're gonna do them better than what their parents
do because their parents make them behave any child believed
(19:51):
as the biggest fool in the world. See, folks always
can come along and make you think they can do
better with you than your own parents can do. What
you don't follow them because they finna lead you into
the biggest mess and tap your life. You've ever seen
the grass always look greener on the other side. But
(20:11):
let me tell you it ain't root it or or
it ain't rooted. That's loose grass. That's loose grass. Let
me take it. Ain't root it like your like you
are rooted now with your with your parents and with
your husband and your wife. It ain't root. It be
about a shutdown. It ain't green as they look. Trust
(20:32):
you me. There's so much ground underneath there. Until you
ain't gonna be able to breathe. You gonna wish you
hadn't did it. Thank God, Jesus said to him, away
from me, sayan, for it is ready to worship the Lord,
your god, and serve him only. Jesus told the devil
get away from me, Get away from me, to say
(20:54):
that the Lord, if you could get out of my face,
get out of my face, because you don't. I don't
know what you're talking about. You trying to deceive yourself
because you ain't deceiving me. And that's where you got
to come to the place led by the spirit. Don't
let the devil deceive you. Don't let him fool you
(21:16):
and to think. And you're better off without Jesus because
you're not. You're better with him than you are without him.
You will always be better with him. I don't care
what it looks like. If you believe God and you
trust him, you're gonna go through something. You're gonna be tried.
(21:36):
Let me tell your feeling's gonna be hurt. You're gonna
be disappointed. I no, I A'm telling you no prosperity
stricture to get you thinking God for to drop a
million dollars in your lap, or you gonna win the
Mega Lottery tonight because Jesus don't pay the lottery. Jesus
ain't gabbling, stop buying the lottery tickets in praying over it,
(22:00):
and God's gonna let you win, cause that's not what
Jesus do. That ain't so, it ain't t It ain't scripture.
It ain't scripture. Let's face reality, superlato, all of 'em,
none of'em. It ain't scripture. That's not the word. It means.
The devil can bless you if you sell him your soul,
(22:22):
if you willing to take his and give up your soul,
you'll bless you. But the chaos that come with it
ain't worth it, because when Jesus bless you is so
much peace and sweetness with it. There's no repercussion. There's
no come back on it. Can't nobody wash your face
(22:42):
with what they did for you. Can't nobody come back
and say nothing to you. All they can sit back
and do is be astonished when Jesus bless you. Wait
for the blessing of the Lord, and stop running around
trying to find it. It's like folk running here and
they're looking for a husband and a wife. If you
sit still and you in Christ, he'll send you one.
(23:04):
I know that for a fact you will. Don't make
the mistakes that some of us have made. If you
in Christ, stay in Christ, wait on him, Wait on
the Lord, and he share renew thy strength. Thou share
man of like an eagle with wings, Thy shall run
and not get weary. Wait, I say on the Lord,
ind and the no shop. Make no hasty decisions without God. Dump.
(23:28):
Don't make a hasty decision with goud God. Every decision
made affects your life. Every way you turn led by
the spirit, it affects your future. O letty lou Jah,
wonder for sake. If you believe that Jesus died and
rose on the third day, keep your hand in his hand,
(23:49):
keep your mind in his mind, keep your thoughts and
his thoughts led by the spirit. Don't let that DEVI
will deceive you. Don't let him fool you and think
that you can make it without Jesus, because you can't.
You won't. You won't survive. You won't survive. Hally Louis.
I don't like to say it this way, and I
(24:10):
don't want to, but I'm going to. I want you
to look at some of the people that are homeless
in the street today. They stayed with a parent, that
with a loved one. They never rose above that, they
never climbed out of that. And when that loved one
or that parent passed away, they were left in a
(24:33):
situation that left them homeless and in the street. Why
because they did not grow, they didn't mature during the
time the help they had was present with them, cold
shut heard. Maybe I shot not. I don't know, Sireh.
God doesn't want you to be a weak Christian. He
(24:55):
wants you to be a strong Christian, strong in Him,
strong in his words, strong in his might, strong in
his power. One not for Savi it, not depending on
anyone or anything but Him, not trusting in anyone or
anything but Him. I feel so bad for the people
(25:17):
that was following these ministers and that have made shipwrecks
and cause others to fall out with God because of
their error and their mistake. But you see, here's the thing.
If we're seeking God like we should, some of us
should have had the desernment to see that the preacher
was in trouble and be able to get to them
(25:41):
and help them, instead of us only trying to get
them to help us. A lot of times we don't
even see the need of another person because all we
overtaken by is our own need, our own lustful desire.
And when that person is in need of your prayers
and hey mood shouting out of no sireh led by
(26:03):
the spirit. I go through the streets a lot of
times and I see things. I may not get out
of my vehicle, but I'll pray for that person as
I'm passing. As I'm driving by, I whisper a word
of prayer to the Lord, because Jesus knows what they need,
Jesus knows their name, Jesus knows where they're suffering, Jesus
knows their pain. Hally Louis a lot of times you
(26:26):
ain't got to get out to be seen and make
a lot of noise. You just whisper a word of
prayer as you pass it by, and God you'll see
them again, and God will be the main changes for them.
God to be undone some wonderful things. I've had people
I walked upon hadn't seen him four or five years,
but I know that we prayed, and when I saw
them again, God had done the miracle in they life
(26:49):
that they needed. But I didn't need to be with
them to do it. I didn't have to hold they hand.
All I needed to do was tell Jesus something, and
he did it for him, led by the spirit of God.
Are you led by the spirit of God? See you
sit there and you watch them, and you're listen, but
you don't see where the devil has attacked them, and
(27:09):
where the devil has come in to destroy. And the
devil want to deceive every one of us, just like
he tried to receive deceive Jesus. He went out of
his way to deceive Jesus. Father. In the name of
the Old shad of Mos High God, I thank you now.
I thank you for your spirit. I thank you for
your presence. No, Lord, I pray that every individual to
(27:32):
not be deceived by the devil any longer. But they
know and they see and that they're led by the
Spirit in the name of the Father, the Son, and
the Holy Spirit. Thank God. Amen, go with God, and
God will go with you. God bless you.
