Church Notes from 12-31-23 The Lord Through Pastor Michael
If you start off the day praising God, you will bind the enemy.
She read 2nd John in 1 minute 30 seconds.
We will be reading 21 whole books of the bible for this fast.
Luke 6:38 - Give, and it shall be given unto you.
Christ teaches you to Give, where the World teaches you to hoard.
Christ is always telling us regardless of the economic conditions to give.
As we give unto him he will give unto us.
2024 We're growing in the LORD. It's our year of great reward.
Rev 21
Gal. 4
Christ is returning so we must be living in him biblicaly now.
Mat. 25:41-46 When Christ comes back he will separate the sheep from the goats.
Goats are hard headed animals who refuse to obey a shepheard or anyone else.
Those who choose to live for themself rather than their creator will be cast
into the lake of fire. The righteous will be let into heaven.
God will make a new heaven and a new earth where there will be righteousness.
Noah was kept free from the flood that destroyed the whole earth and had the whole world after the flood ceased.
The ark being made of wood was a type of Christ.
Gen 12:1-4
Abraham chose to participate and co-operate with the Lord. He had a new life with the Lord
instead of a life with his family who were worshiping devils.
Forget the things which are behind and go to things before with the mark of Christ Jesus.
Leave sin which was harming you today and the Lord has a new life for you.
Isac chose to obey the Lord and participate in his instruction. Isac did not follow Abraham.
The world tells you to save in a famine, and the Lord told him to sow and he reaped 100 fold finiancially.
That's what God will do in our lives if we give to the Lord.
Moses went from a shepheard of a few sheep to a shepheard of the Lord brining 3 million people out of egypt.
Joshua 6:1-5 and 12 - 16
Lord delegated to Joshua to walk around the walls of Jerico on six days and on the 7th day shout
and believe that the Lord had given you posession of it for his glory.
Don't argue or get angry with unbelievers just walk around them and pray and on the 7th day
the walls will come down and they will come into the kingdom of God and get saved by Jesus.
You will have victory over devils that attack you this year as you trust the Lord.
The Lord told Elijah to stop the rain with his words. He said to tell them there will be no rain until you speak it.
Elijah chose to participate and the result was he brought people back to the Lord and prevented people from following
Satan and go to Hell.
When the Lord told Elijah there will be no rain until you declare it. He had to bare the pain of not having water for himself as well.
As we follow the example of Elijah we will get the same results. He obeyed the Lord and the ravens brought Elijah meat, bread and food.
8. The eigth example Jonah the Prophet.
The Lord delegated to Jonah Ninevah and cry against it what I bid thee.
Saddly at 1st he disobeyed and tried to run away on a ship.
The next time he heard the Lord he went to Nineveh and preached 40 days and it will be overthrown.
The good news is that as the Lord gave Jonah a 2nd chance he will give you a 2nd chance to obey him and bring others to Christ.
The Lord told him to preach one of the strangest messages in Bible history. The wicked city of Neneveh heard the Message
and the message got to the king who were killing babys and the king told everyone and every thing including animals to fast
and the Lord spared the city because they repented.
9th example John 1:6 Mat. 1:6
Just obey God and he can use you as a vessel he can work through.
A relationship with God must start and end with him leading and us following.
