• I’m ready. I prepared myself for the house of God. Are you ready?
• If you’re not receiving what God said then there’s something rotten in Denmark.
• The word of God is food for your soul.
• We don’t serve a “poached egg” message; it’s soft and easy to your ears.
• Then there’s the “strawberry and whip cream” message; such a delight to your ears.
• Willow Springs has the “meat and potatoes” message; that is “soul food”
• We’ve got the message for your soul
• That what god is after, to feed your soul so you can grow in the things of God and be ready to meet your maker when you go home,
• So we’re going to have a “soul food” message this morning. Are you ready to eat?

Isaiah 43:2-When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.

• What more do you want folks?
• When the children of Israel went into the fire the only thing that was burned on them was the bands that held them back.
• God is pouring out the fire of the word on you today to break the bands off of you so you can be free to serve him and give him glory and praise.
• When the spirit hits you, you will move because he don’t bring death, he brings life
• The Spirit is a moving thing
• The fire of the word is going to hit Willow Springs because he’s going to get you moving one way or the other
• When you reject the word of God you are going to hell
• God is doing something for his people but you won’t accept what he is doing
• When the fire of the word gets behind you it’s burning off what needs to be burned off
• People are rejecting the very thing that is going to save them from a devil’s hell
• If my life is not lined up with this word then the fire will burn on me

4- Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.

• You are precious in God’s sight; he died to save you
• This church is grieving us; you are not moving on with God; you’re not walking in the gifts that God gives you;
• God is coming back for a church without spot or wrinkle; he’s coming back for a church in the book of Acts where they went to the upper room; this church needs to go to the upper room and be filled with the Holy Ghost and power; it’s going to take power to get you out of here
• The world is snaring some of you; you want to do worldly things instead of Godly things

5- Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;

9- Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, It is truth.

• People are looking for a way out; God has given you a way out but have to receive that way out
• Some of you are caught in the world’s system of money and you have just what you work for;
• God’s people are in the kingdom and will have what the kingdom has given me
• The way we are treating God at Willow Springs is un-real; I’m telling you to your face cause I’m bold enough to tell you.
• God says we have got to get in there with him; not in the world
• We are suppose to be witnesses for all that God is doing in our lives
• We have been called to be a witness; a witness is someone that sees something happening and tells about it
• Where you’re at today is where you want to be
• God always has witnesses when he does something;
• He does not move in a dead church; he moves where the spirit of God is welcome
• We need to see his signs and wonders and miracles;
• The spirit is telling you from this book what to do with the Lord’s work
• He said “if you don’t listen to what the word is telling you, I’m going to come and take the candlestick out of the church; when the candlestick goes, the church will go back to the dead; there will be no more light in that church; the candlestick produces the light of God in the church; when he takes it out he will write ECABOB on the door meaning “God has departed from this place” do you want that?
• If the word of God can’t move you then nothing can

10-Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.

• God is not going to show the world his acts; only his body
• You are suppose to be a part of what he does
• The servant will hear and obey God’s word
• A servant does what he is told to do; God is telling us in his word what to do
• If you are a servant of God then you will do what his word says to do
• We are a privileged people to have the word of God in double portion here
• If you don’t know anything you can’t believe it
• The minister is suppose to be the messenger of Jesus
• The children of Israel didn’t want to hear what Moses had to say and they stayed in a wilderness place;
• There is a place by him where there is rest and peace
• You have to put the flesh down; your will has to become his will; he has to become God in your life; you belong to him then
• Going to the upper room and being filled with his spirit will bring joy to your life; it will bring power to your life; it will bring singing to your heart;
• You have to desire what God tells you
• Salvation is not all there is to it; it is the door opening to greater things

19-Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.

Prophecy

“I shall move; I am moving. In the coming months, I the Lord am going to make sure that you cross Jordan; I’m going to make sure that you cross Jordan. I say my people; I’m going to move you into Canaan land. Into Canaan land you will go and I the Lord am going to wipe away poverty for the ones that want to go into Canaan land. Because in Canaan land there is going to be fruit everywhere you look and every place the sole of your feet shall tread upon shall be yours; I the Lord am going to lead you into Canaan land if you will let me.”

20-The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.

21-This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.

• We need to let the Holy Spirit shape us and form us
• This word is cutting on all of us; it is shaping you and forming you into his image
• You need to welcome the word as it is coming forth and let is wash you and clean you
• The Watchman is not going to shut his mouth until you get “Praise” formed in your heart

22-But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel.

25-I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.

26-Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.

• He is pleading with us this morning to make him a part of your life
• Justified means right with the Lord

Prophecy

“Surely I speak a word further to you; I say my people when you cross over into Canaan land, I the Lord am going to be your protector; I the Lord am going to be your guider; and I the Lord am going to show you things that you have never seen before; and you are going to live in the way that I the Lord live and that’s above every circumstance. I say my people, walk through this land, as I told my servant Abraham, walk through the land, I’ve given you the land; the land is yours; and I say my people, in the coming months I the Lord am going to give you the land if you want to have it; I’m not going to force you to have it, you have to walk in it freely. I say my people, walk in it and you are going to see what I the Lord can do exceedingly abundantly above what you may even ask or think.”

Isaiah 44:2-Thus saith the LORD that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, which will help thee; Fear not, O Jacob, my servant; and thou, Jesurun, whom I have chosen.

• We should be further up the road

3-For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring:

• If you have lost your salt then you are not thirsty for God
• We have to keep on going; we are suppose to be salty; salt makes you thirsty

Message: “Not Ashamed”

“Tell my people don’t be ashamed of my word”

Luke 9:26-For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.

• Every word is this book is for me
• When you get to the place where you can receive it and enjoy it, then God can bless you.

Romans 1:16-For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

• This scripture is the #1 key to the book of Romans
• The word is the only thing that can defeat the devil
• If you don’t have the word in you then you don’t have any power
• The Lord has an answer for every situation in your life

Philippians 1:20-According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.

• No matter what comes or what goes, I am not going to be ashamed of the Lord Jesus Christ
• We are putting Christ down to where we are and getting nothing
• We need to put Christ up where he belongs and then we will have something

2 Timothy 1:12-For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.

• It is very hard to persuade a non-believer but you don’t have to persuade a believer
• (Read Luke 5)
• I am persuaded that God can do what ever he said he can do
• The word of God can solve your problems

Ephesians 3:20-Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

• Get your power to working
• You can have the best car in the world but if it don’t have gas in it, it will not run
• “Right before the end of time, Willow Springs is going to be a filling station”
• When the gas is offered we need to fill up

Romans 5:1-Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

2-By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

3-And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;

4-And patience, experience; and experience, hope:

5-And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

19-For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

Ephesians 6:16-Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

17-And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

• When something is coming against you, pull out your sword (word of God) and go to cutting it down
• Have you got your sword sharpened up?
• The word of God is life to you

Hebrews 4:12-For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

• (Psalm 119-every word of God is pure)

Ephesians 5:26-That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

27-That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

• The church is not ready; it has too much of the world or flesh in it
• The Lord is coming back for a spiritual church

1 Peter 1:22-Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:

• You cannot obey the truth on natural terms

John 17:17-Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

• Sanctify means set apart

19-And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.

Message-The Weeping Prophet

Jeremiah 5:1-Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be any that executeth judgment, that seeketh the truth; and I will pardon it.

• This is who God is interested in; ones that are going on in his word

2-And though they say, The LORD liveth; surely they swear falsely.

3-O LORD, are not thine eyes upon the truth? thou hast stricken them, but they have not grieved; thou hast consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.

4-Therefore I said, Surely these are poor; they are foolish: for they know not the way of the LORD, nor the judgment of their God.

• This was Jeremiah talking back to the Lord

5-I will get me unto the great men, and will speak unto them; for they have known the way of the LORD, and the judgment of their God: but these have altogether broken the yoke, and burst the bonds.

6-Wherefore a lion out of the forest shall slay them, and a wolf of the evenings shall spoil them, a leopard shall watch over their cities: every one that goeth out thence shall be torn in pieces: because their transgressions are many, and their backslidings are increased

• Jeremiah went to the great men but he found out they were just as bad off as the poor people
• When you get filled up with doctrines it’s hard to take in the word
• We are living in a world where God is being taken out of everything; but they cannot take what you have in your heart
• The wrath is being poured out because people don’t want to hear the word of God

7-How shall I pardon thee for this? thy children have forsaken me, and sworn by them that are no gods: when I had fed them to the full, they then committed adultery, and assembled themselves by troops in the harlots' houses.

8-They were as fed horses in the morning: every one neighed after his neighbor’s wife. –

9-Shall I not visit for these things? saith the LORD: and shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

10-Go ye up upon her walls, and destroy; but make not a full end: take away her battlements; for they are not the LORD's.

11-For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have dealt very treacherously against me, saith the LORD.

• Now we are the Tribe of Judah; we are the praise people

12-They have belied the LORD, and said, It is not he; neither shall evil come upon us; neither shall we see sword nor famine:

13-And the prophets shall become wind, and the word is not in them: thus shall it be done unto them.

14-Wherefore thus saith the LORD God of hosts, Because ye speak this word, behold, I will make my words in thy mouth fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them.

• The fire will burn out what is in you that don’t need to be there

19-And it shall come to pass, when ye shall say, Wherefore doeth the LORD our God all these things unto us? then shalt thou answer them, Like as ye have forsaken me, and served strange gods in your land, so shall ye serve strangers in a land that is not your's.

20- Declare this in the house of Jacob, and publish it in Judah, saying,

21-Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; which have eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not:

22-Fear ye not me? saith the LORD: will ye not tremble at my presence, which have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it?

23-But this people hath a revolting and a rebellious heart; they are revolted and gone.

31-The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?

• Anything other than the word is false

Jeremiah 6:8- Be thou instructed, O Jerusalem, lest my soul depart from thee; lest I make thee desolate, a land not inhabited.

17-Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken.

18-Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O congregation, what is among them.

19-Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it.

26-O daughter of my people, gird thee with sackcloth, and wallow thyself in ashes: make thee mourning, as for an only son, most bitter lamentation: for the spoiler shall suddenly come upon us.

27-I have set thee for a tower and a fortress among my people, that thou mayest know and try their way.

• This was God’s church; it was called by his name
• We ought to be like an open book, known and read of all men
• The Holy Spirit is checking your heart when you come in
• Are we receiving God’s word or are we rejecting God’s word?
• You can’t go on living your own life; when you become born again your life becomes his

28-They are all grievous revolters, walking with slanders: they are brass and iron; they are all corrupters.

29-The bellows are burned, the lead is consumed of the fire; the founder melteth in vain: for the wicked are not plucked away.

• The Bellows he is talking about is the fire of the Lord
• That’s what the fire is all about
• If the fire is not behind it then it’s not any good

30-Reprobate silver shall men call them, because the LORD hath rejected them

• A Reprobate thinks good is evil and evil is good

Jeremiah 7:1-The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,

• You need to know the word of God so you will know what is being taught

2-Stand in the gate of the LORD's house, and proclaim there this word, and say, Hear the word of the LORD, all ye of Judah, that enter in at these gates to worship the LORD.

3-Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.

4-Trust ye not in lying words, saying, The temple of the LORD, The temple of the LORD, The temple of the LORD, are these.

5-For if ye throughly amend your ways and your doings; if ye throughly execute judgment between a man and his neighbour;

23-But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you.

• His word is his voice

24-But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.

• When the old man wants to have his way, you have to put him down

25-Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt unto this day I have even sent unto you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them:

26-Yet they hearkened not unto me, nor inclined their ear, but hardened their neck: they did worse than their fathers.

• The prophets were there telling them what God said but they didn’t listen to them

27-Therefore thou shalt speak all these words unto them; but they will not hearken to thee: thou shalt also call unto them; but they will not answer thee.

28-But thou shalt say unto them, This is a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the LORD their God, nor receiveth correction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.

29-Cut off thine hair, O Jerusalem, and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on high places; for the LORD hath rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.

This world is lining up now for the wrath of God to take place

Look in the word and see if you line up with it

30-For the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, saith the LORD: they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to pollute it.

Jeremiah 8:6-I hearkened and heard, but they spake not aright: no man repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? every one turned to his course, as the horse rusheth into the battle.

8-How do ye say, We are wise, and the law of the LORD is with us? Lo, certainly in vain made he it; the pen of the scribes is in vain.

Galatians 5:1-Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

• The Spirit of the Lord is the best thing I have ever gotten a hold of
• It don’t matter who is against me, the Lord is for me
• There is no substitute for the word of God

Message-“Being A Good Follower Of The Lord”

• Jesus never begged anybody to follow him; he asked them one time
• He is looking for someone that has no excuses

Mark 1:16-Now as he walked by the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.

• Jesus spoke to their heart
• They left everything they had earthly and gained heavenly benefits

John 8:12-Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

• This is one of the benefits-walking in the light
• When you walk in the light you can see clearly
• No matter how dark your life is, when the light comes in darkness leaves
• Darkness has no authority over light, light has authority over darkness

Colossians 1:13-Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

• This is another benefit-delivered us from the power of darkness
• When you come to the Lord, your past life is wiped out and all that darkness you had is gone and now all you have is light, joy and peace
• People today are not really sure what the Lord has done in their life

Ephesians 2:6-And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

• This is another benefit-raised us up together and made us sit in heavenly places
• If you follow Jesus he is going to do something in your life
• You have to get in there and really follow the Lord
• If you follow afar off too many things can come between you; but if you follow close enough then nothing can get between you

Philippians 3:10-That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;

• When you follow close to the Lord you will find out who he is
• When you follow close to the Lord he will make sure every provision is provided for

11-If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.

12-Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.

• If you keep on following, the day you turn your toes up, that’s the day you become perfect

13-Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

• There are a lot of things you are gonna have to forget
• When you follow the Lord he is going to lead you into all good things
• Being a good follower will make life more productive and more interesting than anything else

Hosea 6:3-Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.

• If you be a good follower, God will help you out of any situation

Mark 10:28-Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee..

• Peter was asking the Lord what he was going to get out of it

29-And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,

• You cannot let that interfere with what I want you to do

30-But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.

• If you don’t let that interfere with what I have asked you to do, I will give you everything in this book
• You can have these things, just don’t put them before me

John 12:26-If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

• You may be down but if you will follow the Lord you won’t stay down
• There is going to be a lot of good folks in Hell because they rejected the Lord Jesus Christ

• Don’t fool around with people more broke than you are, asking them how to make money; get ask the Lord Jesus Christ and he will show you how to make money
• Get in there with the Lord like you should and he will get in there with you and he will meet every need

Sister Cheryl sang-“When He Was On The Cross”

• When he was on the cross he said it is finished; he has done all he is going to do, now it is up to us
• Thank God I’m still on his mind today
• He knows everything we do
• He knows our up-rising and our down-sitting
• It’s wonderful to know what the Lord has done for us

*Message-“Godliness”

• Godliness is living for the Lord; living for the Lord brings peace; living for the Lord brings joy; living for the Lord brings happiness to your life
• I’m not talking about living for the Lord just on Sunday but everyday
• Too many are thinking about everything but the Lord

1 Timothy 4:7-But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.

8-For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.

• You live for the Lord and quit living for your self and he will provide for you in this life
• Not only am I given a good life while I’m here but also when I get there
• Godliness (living for God) will bring on every need in this life

9-This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.

15-Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.

• Put your mind on the things of God; when you do this the world will get dimmer
• Everything you have, put it in there (1 Thessalonians 5:23)

16-Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee..

• Look in the mirror and ask “are you the reason I’m not getting what God wants me to have?)
• I want you to hear what God has to say so you can get out of the dilemma you are in
• The word of God is the most powerful resource you can get (Hebrews 2)
• It will lift you up and give you an understanding
• When you walk in those doors you should have one thing on your mind, what the word is going to say today

1 Timothy 3:16-And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

• When you really go to living for God, he will make a difference in your life; in your family; your job; your finances; your health
• I’m talking about “Benefits of Living For The Lord”

2 Peter 1:3-According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:

4-Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

• Quit living for your self and do what I the Lord want you to do
• Self life will never make it in
• Every promise God gives is precious
• When you are living for God you take on his nature every time you hear the word
• The more you live for God the less the world attracts you
• (Mark 5-When he cam to Jesus it made a difference)

5-And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;

6-And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;

7-And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

8-For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

9-But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.

• One thing I have never forgotten is where God brought me from
• He brought me from the pit of the miry clay and put me in heavenly placesL

Luke 18:30-Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting.

• When you live for the Lord he’s going to make sure you get blessed 100 fold
• Change the way you are living and go to living for the Lord and you will have 100 fold in this life
• I’d rather have this book than all the gold in Fort Knox; Fort Knox ain’t nothing to what this book will give you

Joshua 1:7-Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper withersoever thou goest.

• If you will live for the Lord you will come up in life and before Christmas you will be giving folks money instead of borrowing

8-This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

• Change your view-where your living at is what you see
• Are you seeing where you are living?
• If you will look in the mirror when you get home, you will see your biggest enemy-you see yourself instead of the Lord

2 Chronicles 31:21-And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.

We need to separate everything and let the heart minister to the Lord

What is in your heart will come out

If you would start dying to yourself then the life of Christ will start rising up

I must decrease and so he can increase

That’s the reason people don’t get anything from the Lord, they are setting with the scornful (Psalm 1:1-3)

Ephesians 1:3-Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

“This Is The Day That The Lord Has Made”

“If You Want It God’s Got It”

*Nuggets*

Psalm 118:24-This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

• If you will listen to the word of God it will build you up and give you an inheritance

Acts 20:38-And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.

*Message-He Began A Good Work

• If you will let him, the Lord will finish the work he started in you
• You have to let him do the work
• When you do something for the Lord it is a free will thing; everything  you do for the Lord is a free will
• He will not let you go un-rewarded

The First Work He Began Was Life

Philippians 1:6-Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

• You have to have to have confidence in the Lord; don’t give up and don’t give in
• Keep pushing on (Philippians 3:14-I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.)
• God has started a word in you; why not let him finish it
• He went to the cross to give you life and give you a life that was exciting and above the circumstances; a life that will cause you to ride upon the high places of the Earth; a life that will cause you to have abundance in this life; a life that will cause you to reign
• I want to ask you today are you reigning in this life? Are you reigning over your finances? Are you reigning over your sickness? Are you reigning over your defeat? Are you reigning over everything in life today? Christ has given you something to reign over
• If your not reigning over it something is wrong
• He come to give us life; he began this life in us
• You know you don’t have no life outside of Christ

John 1:4-In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

Matthew 7:14-Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

• Are you one of the few that find it?
• It’s a narrow way and you have to look for it and when you find it, you have found something you can cherish through eternity

Acts 17:28-For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.

• You cannot overcome things that come your way until you get in him
• Once you get in him he gives you enough authority and power to over come anything that comes your way
• He becomes number 1
• Once you put the Lord Jesus Christ first in your life then you won’t have no problem with the rest of it
• Are you living in him today? You know that is where pleasure comes from
• It don’t cost you nothing to have pleasure in him fore ever more

John 10:10-The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

• Jesus came to give us an abundant life; an exciting life
• That’s what my message is today, are you living that abundant and exciting life?
• I’ve never had pleasure like I have serving the Lord these past 41 years

Romans 5:17-For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)

• If your not reigning in life, then something else is reigning over you
• You know we no longer live for ourselves; we live for the Lord
• There is nothing to keep you back if you are reigning in life
• You cannot reign by yourself (John 15)
• This is a life that is not down but a life that is up

Galatians 2:20-I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

• That word “liveth” means continuously. It’s not a one-time thing. This is a day in and day out life that you’ve got to propitiate every day to live above and reign in life; you’ve got to know who you are in Christ and know what he’s done for you and know who’s in you and you in him and then you can reign.
• This is the kind of life we should be living; a crucified life
• As I said in the beginning Christ has begun a work in you, let him finish it
• He can’t finish the work if you don’t let him
• He wants to finish it more than you want to finish it; he wants to complete your life in him
• God has a plan; he don’t look at the un-finished product, he looks at the finished product

Colossians 2:6-As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:

9-For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

10-And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:

• What does the word complete mean? Finished
• As far as God is concerned he is looking at the finished product
• God is going to finish that work he started on you and at the end when all is said and done he’s gone put us on display
• He said this is what my Son has done for you

14-Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

• Now you can stand before him like you’ve never sined
• That’s the reason I said the work that he began, let him finish it
• He will complete it if you will let him
• Too many people today are not letting the Lord complete the work in them; they are trying to complete it themselves and making a booboo of it
• But if you will let the Lord complete the work in you, it’s gone be finished and it’s gone be finished right

Colossians 1:22-In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:

Philippians 2:15-That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;

16-Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.

• The way the signs are looking that day is coming real quickly
• You know the Lord never says anything bad about you; he always says something good
• How do you get close to the Lord?
• Read Ephesians 2:13-But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

• When the temple was being built, every stone was cut out side the temple; when they were brought in the temple, they fit perfectly together
• Now I see this as a type of us; we’re being chiseled on and cut on now so that when we get there, we will fit right in our place

Colossians 3:3-For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

4-When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

“All Over The Earth The Spirit Is Moving”

*Nuggets*

• The bible says we’re not of the night we are of the day; they that sleep, sleep in the night
• (1 Thes.5)
• Thank the Lord for the privilege of sharing this precious word of God
• There is nothing like it; there has never been anything like and never will be anything like it
• This is fore ever; he said Heaven and Earth is going away but my word is not
• It’s gone last fore ever and ever
• That causes me and you to last fore ever and ever
• Because when you get the word in you, you gone live fore ever
• (John 11:25,26)

Taping Starts:

• The word of God is able to build you up and give you an inheritance in him
• The word of God as Hebrews 4:12 says (it is shaper and more powerful than a 2 edged sword)
• Psalm 119:130-The entrance of thy gate giveth light and understanding to the simple
• We just thank the Lord today that Willow Springs is a “Word” church; it’s not a doctrine church, it’s a word church
• Jesus is the word; in the beginning was the word; the word was made flesh and dwelt among us. (John 1:1)
• The word of God will do something in your life that nothing else will do
• Doctors can’t do it; it takes the word of God to do it
• You can’t buy your way to Heaven; you can’t be good enough to go to Heaven; you have to have Jesus to get there.
• The more you do for the Lord the more you will have; the more you give the more you get; if you don’t never give you won’t never get

Message: Authority Of The Believer

• Jesus had all the power and all the authority when he was here; then he gave all the authority to the church.
• The church today is letting the devil run all over them and run them in the ground not knowing that they have the authority to put him down there.
• It’s time for the Christian to realize who they are
• You know the devil wants you defeated all the time; that is his job, to keep you broke, discouraged, defeated, down under his feet all the time; he is real happy when he’s got you like that; but I want to tell you he’s not very happy when you got him under your feet.
• Today I want to talk about the authority of the believer; we have that authority
• I’m going to say this with all the love I know how; Authority is not taken, it is given
• Somebody is giving you orders that is higher than you are
• If you are giving your own orders then you are in a mess; but if your taking orders from somebody that has a higher rank than you have then God is going to bless you

Matthew 28:18-And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

• Now you notice that; All the power; not half of it but all of it

19-Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

20-Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

• Now if Jesus had all the power in Heaven and in Earth; when he ascended back to Heaven, he didn’t need that power; he relinquished his power back to the church; now the church is the one that has all the power in heaven and in earth because the Lord has given them that authority and that power to put the enemy down.
• If you don’t start exercising the power that the Lord has given you, the devil is going to eat you up. He’s gone eat your finances up; he’s gone eat your body up; he’s gone eat your encouragement up; he’s gone do everything he can; he’s like a cancer on you, if you don’t know what your authority is in Christ then he’s gone eat you up and spit you out and bury you. I want to tell you, take your authority in Christ Jesus and put him where he needs to be
• Me and the devil don’t have no love for one another; he has caused me too much trouble in life and I’m gone try my best through the name of Jesus Christ to put him down every time I can; in the name of Jesus everything is gone have to bow
• Jesus is a family name and once you are born again then you take on the family name and you have the authority to use that name; and there ain’t enough devils in hell to stop that name because that name will destroy every enemy that ever comes or ever will be

Mark 1:27- And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.

• Did you hear that? What authority/ Where did this man lear all that?
• I want to tell you, when Jesus came here, the Father gave him authority over everything here on this earth; he said I had all power and all authority
• So God the Father gave Jesus that authority and everything that he spoke had to obey it.
• Remember in Mark 5 where the man with un-clean spirits was out in the tomb cutting himself and doing all such things as that; I want to tell you when Jesus come along, the man realized who Jesus was and he fell at his feet asking for help; he had over 2000 demons in him; but when Jesus spoke the word, to come out of him, they come out and went in a bunch of hogs and they didn’t want them either so they run off a cliff into the ocean and drown themselves
• I want to tell you if you got something aggravating you today, lay your hands on top of your head and command it to be loosed from your body

28-And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.

29-And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

30-But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him of her.

31-And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.

• Now think about that. Here is Jesus with all the authority and power; and that’s telling me that the name of Jesus has authority and power over sickness
• You know sickness has a name; Peter’s mother-n-law had a fever; fever is a name
• Well, Jesus name was above that fever
• What do you have wrong with you today? If you have something wrong with you, it’s a name. His name is above every name
• Alright, lay your hands on you where ever it’s at and start rebuking it in the name of Jesus and command it to be loosed from your body and I guarantee if you believe it, it will be loosed from your body
• It can’t stay there with the name of Jesus
• I’m giving you some examples about him; if he’s got that power then he has given the church that power

Matthew 9:2-And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.

3-And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.

• You see a lot of times people don’t see what Jesus is doing;
• When you are reading the bible, remember this, read it like you don’t know nothing
• Then when you read the bible, God will teach you
• But if you open the bible and say “I know this” then the Lord can’t teach you nothing
• The Lord will open your understanding to the scriptures

4-And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?

5-For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?

6-But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.

7-And he arose, and departed to his house.

• He obeyed what was told him; that’s the secret to getting what you need in life is obey what is told you.
• Now this man was paralyzed, he couldn’t do anything; but when Jesus said get up, the man began to move. He got up, rolled up his bed and went home.
• The old boy wasn’t broke was he? He had a house

*Now I have given you scriptures about the authority and power of Jesus Christ; now I want to show you what the Lord has done for the church.

• Until you realize that God has given you the authority and power, you will never get anything in life
• You’ve got to realize that your help comes from the Lord
• The Lord has done all he’s gone do for you; it’s up to you to receive what he’s done

Like 10:19-Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

• Now that doesn’t leave anything; that don’t leave anything in life for you to grumble and complain about the devil made me do this and the devil made me do that; look in the mirror and you will see who made you do it
• Look in the mirror and you will see the enemy you have
• If you will realize who you are and what I’ve done for you, then you can realize the power I’ve given you
• Our power with the Lord is un-limited; we are the ones that limit the Lord when things don’t turn out exactly the way we thought they should, we say “well I don’t guess the Lord heard me”
• When you pray, believe that you have received it and don’t look back and you shall have it
• That’s the power of the Lord; do you get your prayers answered?
• When the Lord went back to Heaven he did not leave you defenseless;
• He gave you something to defend everything that comes your way
• Why did he give us all the power?  Because we are his workmanship

Ephesians 2:10-For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

• Walk in the authority that the Lord has given you
• When you do something for God, do it with the best of your ability and then God will do something for you
• When God gives you authority, start using it because the devil ain’t throwing marshmallows at you

John 14:12-Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

13-And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

14-If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

• See that’s the authority of a believer; recognizing who you are and where you are in Christ
• I want you to rise up and take authority over what ever is bothering you today

Acts 10:38-How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

• Jesus put a lot of emphasis on authority

Luke 9:1-Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.

Luke 24:49-And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.

50-And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.

51-And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.-

52-And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:

53-And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen..

• The power confirms the word; the word of God is power

Romans 1:16-For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

• The Spiritual church started in Acts 2; that is where the spiritual ministry really started
• Before this time the disciples hid them selves and denied the Lord and all such as that
• But after the Spirit of God brought authority to them, then it didn’t make any difference what they said or what they done; it didn’t change their view towards the Lord Jesus Christ

• When hard times come, the people that are dedicated and concentrated to the Lord, they are going to have plenty when the world is starving
• Arise and shine
• Darkness is going to cover the Earth and gross darkness the people
• But he said to let my light shine; the darker it gets the brighter my light shines

*Prophecy*

Surely my people do not be weary in well doing because in due season there shall reap if you faint not. And I say my people “do not faint because of what the world is doing but I say, look unto me. I the Lord am your provider; I’m the Lord, your protector; and I the Lord will show you before anything comes, what is coming where you can provide for yourself.” And I say my people “I’ve always provided and told my people what was coming before it come and the provided; but the ones that didn’t provide was caught in to it.” And I say my people “I’m gone tell you what’s coming where you can provide” And I say my people “do not look to the world for your information, but look to I the Lord and I will teach you what you need to know”

Message-There Is A Place You Can Get To In The Lord

• There is a place you can get to in the Lord where you don’t have tribulations
• Where you don’t have vexation of spirits
• Where you don’t have a whole lot of troubles
• Things are lining up right now for Jesus to come back and save Israel
• Men can’t help her; all things are lined up against her now; Jesus is ready to come back
• Today I want to tell you there is a place by him; we need to get on God’s path
• We need to walk in his path; we need to walk the way he wants us to walk
• Not the way we want to go but the way he wants to go
• This is our life now; all things oar of God little children
• When you come to him you need to give your life totally over to him
• He needs to be your leader, he needs to be your guide; he needs to be everything for you
• This is the words of life for your soul; this is what is transforming your soul to meet God; we need all of the word we can possibly get because when we stand before him, he’s gone judge us out of this word; he’s gone say “why didn’t you get that blessing”?
• We are going to have to go after the things of God instead of the things we want
• Our wants should become his wants

Psalm 107:1-O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

2-Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;

• God has redeemed you out of the hand of the enemy
• The enemy has no more power over you

3-And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.

• God has saved you out of the world; he has overcome the world and so can you
• Our fight is to get out of this world; the world should not have a hold on us
• You can’t enjoy the things of this world and the things of God; he said he will not give you two masters

4-They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in.

• Now these are people that have no God;
• What God wants to do is save you from the wilderness experience
• He brought you out from the wilderness experience

5-Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.

• Now that was before we were born again
• Only God can satisfy the longing soul

6-Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.

• We ought to serve the Lord at all times; not just when we are in trouble

7-And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.

8-Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

9-For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.

10-Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron;

11-Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High:

12-Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and there was none to help.

13-Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.

14-He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder.

15-Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

16-For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in sunder.

20-He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.
