Rescue Mission Sermon July 27, 2002
Praise the Lord! How many love the Lord tonight? [many respond in the affirmative] God is good! The Bible says He is worthy of all praise. [Revelation 4:11]
I’m thankful for a God that hears and answers prayer. I’m thankful for a God that says, “Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.” [John 14:1-3]
What a promise! And that is a promise to each one of us as BEINGS, I’m saying “BEINGS” on this earth. We all start out as not knowing Jesus. The Bible says, in the second chapter of Ephesians, “And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience…” [Ephesians 2:1-2]
Truly here tonight there is none of us that can boast within ourselves. I cannot boast anything, but save Jesus Christ. He is the answer for each one. We can never look upon another and point a finger. We always have to point to ourselves, a finger at ourselves.
“Father, this night, in the Name of Jesus we pray for a mighty blessing, tonight. We pray that YOU would move MIGHTILY this day, by the power of God. We pray that you would bind all hindering forces of darkness that would come this way. We pray that LIVES this night, would be touched by the Spirit of God. We pray that their lives will be touched in a very special and glorious way. We pray this night for those that do not know YOU as Lord and Saviour. We pray this night that they might invest their lives in YOU, this night. Lord God, their lives might have a new purpose, a new strength, a new hope, a new direction. Lord God, that they might know where they are going: Heaven bound, their aim, their way. Father this night, we pray for this congregation. We pray for a blessing this night. We pray for every heart this night in a very special way. We know that each one of us here have needs. And we pray that you would look down this night in a very special and a glorious way. That YOU would meet the needs of this people, this night. And Father, we pray for a mighty BLESSING on these ones. We pray for the love of God to be here in a very special way. We pray that you would LOVE THEM, this night in a very GLORIOUS way. We pray that you would bind all the hindering forces, Lord God, that would bring doubt, that would bring confusion. Lord set your people free this night in a very special way, that they might hear the voice of God, tonight. In the wonderful Name of Jesus.”
I really believe that we are living in a time where we are very close to the coming of our Lord Jesus. The Bible says in Romans, the thirteenth chapter, “…knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for NOW is our salvation NEARER than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let US therefore…” WE HAVE TO DO IT! “…let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.” [Romans 13:11-12]
And this night, I am here tonight to guarantee that this is God’s Word. [Brother Freedom holds up the Bible]
As we read this Word there becomes something that SATISFIES; it changes us! Just by reading this Word; there is something powerful in the Word of God! It is quicker, sharper than a two edged sword! [Hebrews 4:12]
The Bible says, “Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal…” [Matthew 6:19-20]
You know in life we find ourselves, all of us, myself included, we find ourselves working. We start out in High School, that time where our purpose is to do something, to bring fulfillment to this life. We find ourselves in many occupations. We find ourselves in a place where we may better ourselves. Sometimes it seems like we just slide through.
But I believe there is a time, after all is said and done where we are all going to stand before God. And the Bible says, “But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal…” [Matthew 6:20]
All of you here, we see after you buy a brand new car, and you could take it out here and literally not drive it. And, in time it will rust itself out. And that is the way this world is. There is something that is in the atmosphere itself that in time things get old. Time, like myself, I just passed my birthday this week. My time is sort of drifted on by. But the Bible says, we have a hope. We have an assurance that we know that where we are going is REAL! The Bible says that, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” [John 3:16]
The Bible says, “He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he POWER…” “…POWER to become the sons of God…” [John 1:11-12] God has NOT given you the spirit of all the problems. But God has given you the Spirit of HIS HOPE. He has given you the Spirit of his love. HE has given you the good things. The Bible says the bad things: envy, strife, wickedness. All those [bad things] cause us to fall, cause us to have troubles in our life. Hatred, all these variances, all these things that come into us; and they are the opposite of what God is. God has got everything that you can think of that is good…that’s God!
The Bible says, “If God be for us, who can be against us?” [Romans 8:31b] Isn’t that a wonderful thought? If God could be for us who can be against us??? The Bible says, “…greater is HE that is in you, than he that is in the world.” [John 4:4b] The Bible says, “…Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” [John 14:27b]
THAT’S THE WORD OF GOD!! And I am here tonight to declare that God’s Word is TRUE!! There is a place, very soon, the Bible says, “…it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.” [1st Corinthians 2:9-10]
God has given us a hope in HIM. Can you imagine that you can’t even imagine what God has for you?? In James the fifth chapter HE says that HE is looking for that day. God is looking for those that will know HIM as Lord and Saviour in that Day that we will go home to meet Him. We all sort of dread it. But God is looking for that day [that we come home to Heaven].
It says, “Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.” [James 5:7]
God is waiting for those that [are coming to Heaven]. God loves you that are here tonight. And HE doesn’t want you and me to be a failure. God wants us to be the opposite, if we put our trust in HIM.
The Bible says, “Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.” [Psalm 37:3]
The first part of that psalm, Psalm 37 says, “Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.” [Psalm 37:1-4]
That is VERY powerful! But, the Bible says, we must “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved,” [Acts 16:31] If you don’t know HIM there is a personal [invitation]. I would not want to take second best!
You know if I road out here and purchased a car or something like that and I just sort of kicked myself and said, “Shame on me!” [for buying second best]!
But, when you mess up with this spirit, of your life itself, shame on US!! We don’t have to take second best this night! We know God and God says, “Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” [Matthew 11:28-30]. “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” [John 14:27] That is MY God’s peace!
God is REAL this night in a very glorious and a very wonderful way. And here this night if we have problems we know where to take that problem to. You know I had a problem this week with a computer on a pickup [truck]. I had to take it in to someone who could plug into that computer and let me know what was wrong with it.
Sometimes [with] our problems we don’t even understand where our trouble is! And what really we need is JESUS! We need that love. There is something about the love of God, when we pray and God saturates us with HIS love from the very crown of our head to the very sole of our feet, we feel the presence of God.
And the Bible says, “And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God;…” THIS IS SCRIPTURE THAT I’M QUOTING! “…as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.” [2nd Corinthians 6:16-18]
God wants to be a Father. And any of you here tonight, I believe that a father is one that really cares for his child. But God is a Father above ALL fathers. Many of us are failure fathers. But God has never failed! He is glorious! God has never been at fault, not one time! We fail God sometimes. We go through problems. But, it isn’t God that has failed. It is because we have not cried out to God. We’ve stayed back. We’ve said, “Well, God can’t help me! I’m just going to sit down here myself!” And God won’t force HIMSELF upon you, brothers and sisters. That’s the serious thing about God!
The Bible says we have to “seek” Him or we will not find Him. “Seek ye the Lord and HIS strength. Seek HIS face for evermore. Seek the Lord while HE may be found. Call upon HIM while HE is near.” [There are so many scriptures that tell us to seek God. Here are just a few: 2 Chronicles 7:14, Psalm 34:10, Isaiah 55:6, Hebrews 11:6]
It says, “For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him.” [2nd Chronicles 16:9a]
Second Chronicles, seven fourteen says, “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven,..” THIS IS GOD SPEAKING! “…and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” [2nd Chronicles 7:14]
This day, what America needs is changed hearts! All of us need a closer walk with God! We need a closer walk with God! I need a closer walk with God! I desire more of God this night. And I’m here to tell you I want more of God! I want the power of God to touch me from the very crown of my head to the very sole of my feet, that my feet are laughing in the presence of God!! My spirit is laughing and my feet are jumping up and down laughing with the presence of God! It is because of God’s presence!
I believe that God is glorious! It says, “To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you…” [1st Peter 1:4] That is what God has for us, as HIS children! And it is “reserved in Heaven.”
Did any of you ever have a reservation to go somewhere, to do something?? [Some shake their heads in the affirmative]. A reservation gives you a spot that when you go there, you arrive there, you can say, “I have a reservation!” And it reserves that room, or whatever it is for YOU!
But God has given us a reservation this night. And that reservation is coming from Heaven! It is given by God HIMSELF: That God “…is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” [2nd Peter 3:9]
The Bible says, “…and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.” [1st Peter 5:5b] “Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time…” [1st Peter 5:6] “Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.” [1st Peter 5:7] “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.” [1st Peter 5:8-9]
You know, in life we feel like that we are getting a raw deal, many times. We get to feeling sorry for ourselves. But, I’ll tell you what we need is to get down and mean business with God. We need to “SEEK HIM while HE may be found.” [Isaiah 55:6a] We need to [fold] our hands, and get down on our knees and say, “Lord, I need YOU this night!” The Bible says that if we will call unto HIM, HE will answer us, and show us great and mighty things which we know not. [Jeremiah 33:3]
The Bible says in James “ye have not, because ye ask not. Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss,…” [James 4:2b-3] That means that we don’t really ask. We say, “Okay Lord, I’ll just do it.” And God says, “Oh, he’s not interested in ME. He’s not interested in ME, so he can just go have his own way.” That’s what happens!
God says, “…seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” [Matthew 6:33] Many times, I believe, we even accept Jesus [shallowly saying] “…well, I’ll just raise my hand tonight…and I’ll just raise it Lord. You know that I’m here. You see me.”
I DON’T BELIEVE IN THAT!! I believe God wants the “first fruit,” that God wants the first harvest! HE WANTS TO BE REVERENCED!!! GLORY TO GOD!!
GLORY!
God wants first place this night. Thank you Jesus, that’s good preaching! He wants first place in all of our hearts tonight. And we need to quit playing around! We need to mean business. And I’m not here to scold any of you. But, I’m talking to myself tonight! Because I believe HE is coming soon! I believe HE is coming through the clouds of glory! And I’ll tell you that we need to be READY!
We need to be READY because when HE comes through the clouds of glory and we miss that, the Bible says in Revelation there is going to be perilous times [for those left here]. And truly perilous times are coming. They are here in many instances! The powers of darkness are here every place. You cannot turn the TV on: [and] there is powers of darkness. You are seeing a lot of it just to see something on the News.
I’m here this night to lift up the Name of Jesus. If we want to get to Heaven, the most glorious place, the most wonderful thing that we can achieve in this life, it is not having the biggest house. It’s not having a mansion. It’s not having the Cadillacs. It’s not having all those cars, or the boats or the planes, or having trips, or all these things! BUT, IT IS HAVING JESUS!!! It’s having the power of God revealed to us. There is no other thing that will compare to what God has and [has] created for us all: the presence of God, the anointing of God, when it touches you, as I feel right now. There is NOTHING to compare with it!!!
The Bible says, “And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit…” [Ephesians 5:18]
There’s a presence of God, when God comes in your heart there is a reality that if God be for you who can be against you! [Romans 8:31b] God’s presence is REAL! God HIMSELF comes to make HIS abode in us that we might be looked upon by HIS Spirit! That is so easy that we miss it!
We wonder why it says, “…greater is HE that is in you, than he that is in the world.” [1st John 4:4b] The Bible says, “When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.” [Isaiah 59:19] What is it saying? It says, when the enemy comes to give us problems that God is GREATER! “…greater is HE that is in you, than he that is in the world.” [1st John 4:4b]
In the Ninety-first Psalm it says, “He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide UNDER the shadow of the Almighty.” We need the [covering] of God! We need HIS presence over us, covering us with HIS dynamic power, HIS dynamic presence, beyond imagination.
It says, “I will say of the Lord, HE is my REFUGE, my FORTRESS, my God in HIM will I trust.” [Psalm 91]
I will say that!!! We have an authority. The Bible says we speak with our words. “Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.” [Proverbs 18:21] If you accept Jesus and mean it: there is power in that word of confession! There is POWER when you confess something with God. God “…is not slack concerning HIS promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” [2nd Peter 3:9] God will keep HIS bargain!
HE is here to bless. HE is not here to scold you as much as HE wants to KEEP you! God sees the process of the end product.
I don’t know how long it is going to be, but I believe that we are very close to the time when God is coming through the clouds of glory. And, I really, truly believe that when HE comes that many, many people are still going to be here; because the Bible says we are not to be slumbering and sleeping. The Bible tells of ten virgins. Five were wise and five were foolish. [They all fell asleep waiting for the coming of the Bride Groom.]
And I am here tonight to encourage you this night to be HOT in the Lord. The Bible says in Revelation because they were not hot nor cold HE [God] will spue [or vomit] them out of HIS mouth. [Revelation 3:15-16] We are lukewarm. Many of us tonight have a lukewarm condition. WE ARE LUKEWARM! And God wants us to be hot or cold. HE has more feelings for us if we be cold than when we are lukewarm! The Bible says he spues us out of HIS mouth. HE can’t stand [mixture]. That’s God!
I’m here to represent God! And God loves you this night! I want you to understand that. God is in the forgiveness business. God is in the healing business! HE is here to give you a new heart, a new mind, a new soul, a new direction, this night, in the presence of God.
In Revelation it talks about, and I’d like to read this, because this is what God gave me. I did not plan this sermon tonight. I came here and I felt the presence of God. And I feel this, this night.
” 1 And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
3 And there shall be no more curse:…” [Revelation 22:1-3]
Just think about it There is going to be a time, and I believe it is very close. The Bible says in Peter, there is going to be a time when all these things are going to come to pass.
The Bible says that “every knee shall bow…and every tongue shall confess…” that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. [Romans 14:11]
If we confess HIM now we don’t have to worry then. If we don’t confess HIM now, the Bible says everyone WILL confess HIM [then]!! Surely THEN we are going to be under pressure. And I don’t want to put anyone under pressure. Pressure is a hard thing to handle. I’ve worked under pressure. It’s hard to handle! Pressure is something God does not want us to work under. HE wants LIBERTY! And if we have problems God is for us. We have a release [in God]. “…the joy of the Lord is my strength.” [Nehemiah 8:10b]
God’s PRESENCE relieves you of that high blood pressure! God’s presence relieves you of that heart that is down. There’s a lifting up of God! HE’s a “lifter-upper.” He is: “The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.” [Proverbs 10:22]
The Bible says that we can cast all of our cares upon HIM because “he careth for you…” this night. [1st Peter 5:7]
There is a presence of God that is REAL this night! God is REAL this night! And HE’s faithful this night!
“And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him…” [Revelation 22:3]
Oh, I don’t mind serving God wherever it is! Hallelujah! I don’t care [what I do, only] just to make it to Heaven; to see that glorious land.
“And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.” [Revelation 22:5]
You think about it: OUR DAYS ARE LIMITED here upon earth. I just turned 70 this week. My time is getting close. But I believe I’m going to see God coming through the clouds of glory. I believe it is very soon. I thought HE would come in the eighties. I thought HE would come in the nineties. But that still didn’t stop me from believing God is coming! I believe with more assurance that HE is coming VERY SOON! HE is coming rapidly! HIS church needs to come, that God wants to take HIS bride home; “redemption draweth nigh.” [Luke 21:28b] What a blessed time, if you know Jesus Christ, there is going to be a day. There has been problems, there has been failures, there’s been heartaches, there’s been tooth aches, there’s been headaches, there’s been back aches. There has been all kinds of aches, aches, aches! There has been all kinds of pains, pains, pains! There has been sores; sores of sores of sores: PROBLEMS!!!
But, I’m here tonight to represent Jesus. HE is able to deliver us from THAT, and bring us into that presence of HIM! What a blessing! What a reverse glory, that God is able to turn [us] around! HALLELUJAH!
I feel the presence of God here in a very glorious way!
HE says, “Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.” [Revelation 22:7]
The Bible says if we love HIM we will keep HIS commandments. [John 14:15 and 15:10] The Bible says HIS commandments are not grievous. [Matthew 11:30]
Many things that are in the Bible, many times, people say, “I can’t have time for that!” But it is there for a reason. I know a dear woman that smoked. I’m not putting anyone down, but this day she has emphysema. And she wishes that she had never seen that. What I’m saying is: SIN HAS CONSEQUENCES! You go out here and kill someone and you’ve got consequences. You go out and do something dumb: you got consequences. And without the Spirit of God none of us have that control.
We need that control of God! We need that “dunamis” power of God that we are in control by the Spirit of God! And that is what America needs this night. It would do away with policeman. It would do away with all enforcement because the Spirit of God would be in fellowship. The Spirit of God would be moving through your life! The Spirit of God would bring you into victory! The Spirit of God would speak to your heart! But HE needs you to pray! The Spirit of God would say, “This is what you need!” [The word “dunamis” is the original Greek word found in the oldest copies of the Bible. It means great power and our word dynamite comes from it in the English.]
“MY child wake up! My coming is soon! Wake up MY children, for yea I the Lord thy God am coming soon! God is coming saith the Spirit of God! GOD IS COMING! Arise thyself! Awaken thy heart and life! Shake off thy heavy garments! Lift up thy hands! Lift up the Name of Jesus!”
For God loves you! And God wants to bring victory this night. God wants to bring HIS presence this night, in the glorious Name of God. The time [limit for this message at the mission ]is over! But God is REAL, the glory of God! You need Jesus this night; THIS NIGHT!!
And I am here tonight [because] I love you! I know this is God. God is right on this night! God is serious this night, wanting you to seriously think about my life, our lives, this night, that we might be READY, if HE come tonight! The urgency is REAL!
I’m going to go ahead and read something in quitting, because I believe it is very positive.
“Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,…” [2nd Peter 3:3] This is what the world is saying! “And saying, Where is the promise of his coming?” [2nd Peter 3:4a] That’s the evidence the world says, “We don’t even think God is real! We don’t even think, there is a [God].”
But I am here tonight to testify that HE IS REAL! HIS power is REAL! HIS SPIRIT is REAL! HE’s alive! HE’s real!
“…for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.” [2nd Peter 3:4b] And truly we have to recognize that! Things are still going on. The Sun still comes up, hopefully. But, God is saying, “Look up MY children. Your redemption draweth nigh.”
“For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water…” [2nd Peter 3:5] That’s talking about the world through Noah.
“Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished…” [2nd Peter 3:6] See, Noah went and preached. He said, “Repent! Be ready! And the nations around did not scare Noah. Noah was a good preacher. But, Noah, at least, was saved by God’s presence.
“But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.” [2nd Peter 3:7] The earth, this next time is not going to be destroyed with water. It is going to be destroyed by fire.
“But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning HIS promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” [2nd Peter 3:8-9] That’s God’s message! God wants us all to come to repentance.
“But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat,…” [2nd Peter 3:10a] This is what it is saying!
“…the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.” [2nd Peter 3:10b] That’s just what we are living in! It’s serious this night!
“Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons…” It is asking a question! “…what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness…” [2nd Peter 3:11] Our conversation, all of our thoughts. The Bible says we must keep our eyes upon HIM!
“Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens…” And here tonight that was what that was. It is a NEW HEAVEN. “…and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.” [2nd Peter 3:13]
“Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.” [2nd Peter 3:15] You know, here this night, that if you miss out on coming to Heaven you will not be able to point a finger at Brother Freedom and say, “You didn’t tell me.”
And God spoke to me this day. He said, “I want you to declare that!” I didn’t know how this feels, but I am here tonight that you need to be ready for that Day. If you miss out, God is giving you an invitation this night to know HIM. You can accept Jesus in your heart. You can believe for a new touch in your life. I am here this night to say, “Hey! Hey, whatever it means. I’m an old nagger I guess. But I want you to get right with God! I want us ALL to get right with God in a glorious way!
God is REAL. Thank you! God bless you!
Father in Heaven we pray for a mighty presence of YOUR Spirit to be here. Father we pray for every heart.
If there is any here tonight that you want to know Jesus, raise your hand. Every eye closed. Any here tonight that wants a closer walk with Jesus? I’m going to put my hand up. Anybody want a closer walk?
You know “you are snared by your words.” [Proverbs 6:2] God sees you in that day and says, “Hey, I gave you an opportunity accepting ME as your Saviour.” It doesn’t hurt. God is painless in what HE has for us. It doesn’t hurt us! You’ll go away feeling better. You’ll feel better because you made that right choice.
Father God, I pray for a blessing on this congregation. I pray that you would bless them this day forevermore. I wish the time was more! I wish tomorrow night that I could come back and pray and preach some more and give more. But Lord, we cannot, so I leave them in YOUR hands! I pray for VICTORY this night in Jesus Name. Amen and Amen
