Laws that govern increase
The word can change lives. We serve an awesome God. Who entrusts us with His minsitry.
Prop is the cross. When we understand the laws that govern we are released into our destiny. Before He can release you into your destiny you have to go through something.
Isa 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Isa 9:7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
No matter where there is darkness and fighting He will be the prince of Peace.
He saw a picture of the Christ. He was coming.
Heb 10:5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: Heb 10:6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
Paul is speaking prophetically. The Lord gave him visions.
He saw that the world was limited. Jesus was sent to restore us back to the original state of Man prior to Adam's fall, and our fellowship with God.
Heb 10:7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
Heb 10:8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;
Heb 10:9 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.
He is speaking for Jesus in vs. 7. Jesus came to fulfill the old covenant, He is the new covenant.
30 years old He walked the earth. If you are older you were once 30. His mother received prophesy about His birth. He was 30 and hadn't done anything special. Wasn't He supposed to be doing anything. He goes to the river to be baptized. From the time He was baptized to the time on the cross His ministry was the people, his method was the cross. There is a ministry for you. You have to understand the method. When you talk about laws that govern the prophetic word.
The devil wanted Him to put the cross down and fix His situation. God's grace is enough to get you through all of your situations. Don't put your cross down. No one or nothing should come between you. The devil tries to get us to put it down. Jesus saw beyond just Him in that situation and saw you and I. We were going to need HIM and His sacrifice.
As He kept the word of God and overcame temptation, he took that whipping and was nailed on the cross He realized salvation was in His hands. No matter about the rejection, for you and I He stayed on the cross. What happens when we understand those same laws.
If you are going to say you have a ministry then you should be ministering at home first. It's hard to honor God when you are ignorant. For now God is saying be on time at work. If you don't have a mentor to help you take it to the next level you are going to keep getting fired.
Me and the boys were out until 4am why is she mad? She should be mad you are acting crazy. If you aren't going to come home on time you must not be the man.
I am serving the Lord I want God to bless me.
Are you doing it consistently? When something happens that you don't like you lose it.
A couple of things to help you.
We need to learn how to honor God. Show respect or esteem them. In some arena's awards are given. Promotions to show honor. We salute the american flag. We honor the flag. What it represents. The people who gave their life so that we could have the flag. When someone in the military dies, at the funeral they come and honor the family. They show value for the flag. We need to do that with each other. Once we value each other revival will bust out in our church.
What if, we honor each other. Who are you honoring?
Why is God honoring others not me? Because you haven't changed. The new wine will bust the old wine skins.
People want to ride through church likes it's a drive through fast food. You need to let it digest.
Deu 5:7 Thou shalt have none other gods before me.
Deu 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
Deu 6:5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
We need to Love the Lord with it all. Not the things of the world. Every now and then we get tempted and fall. Stub your toe and swear. Not praise words.
I will never fornicate like the fornicators then we see you riding looking for some. Don't judge someone else because then it's going to come back on you.
We are supposed to Honor God through the conflict. What is the devil trying to get you in to dishonor God. Areas we don't even think or see. Don't let your job keep you from honoring God.
Honor God
Deu 5:6 I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
Deu 5:7 Thou shalt have none other gods before me.
Deu 5:8 Thou shalt not make thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth:
Deu 5:9 Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me,
When you go through problems the devil tries to get you to drink. You are basically tithing to that God. Giving your money away to something that is really hurting you.
Honor people
Deu 5:13 Six days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work:
Deu 5:14 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy maidservant may rest as well as thou.
Deu 5:15 And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
Deu 5:16 Honour thy father and thy mother, as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee; that thy days may be prolonged, and that it may go well with thee, in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
Deu 5:17 Thou shalt not kill.
Deu 5:18 Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
Deu 5:19 Neither shalt thou steal.
Deu 5:20 Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbour.
Deu 5:21 Neither shalt thou desire thy neighbour's wife, neither shalt thou covet thy neighbour's house, his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or any thing that is thy neighbour's.
1Ti 5:3 Honour widows that are widows indeed.
Pro 3:9 Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:
Best savings account is God because He can bless your money and increase it.
Joh 5:23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
Communion is honoring God.
The only one who can judge sin is God. We are all sinners.
