SCRIPTURAL INSIGHT AND STUDY (A replayed message.)
"Until it devours the prey and drinks the blood of the slain"
John 6:54, ""He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day."
We drink His blood and eat the slain.
Micah 5:7&8, "Will be among the nations."
All of the, "Be strong and courageous," passages are underlined
in the preacher's Bible.
Israelites have been scattered among the nations for their disobedience.
"Like a lion among the beasts of the forest."
"Tramples down and tears and there is none to rescue."
You are in the new Jer-USA-lem today.
Ezekiel 36:10,12,13,37.
"Multiply men on you."
"never again bereave them of children."
They have devoured men with public education.
"I will put My Spirit within you."
"I will increase their men like a flock."
"Filled with flocks of men."
Prophesies and start praying for men of God again, that desire to have a future for their children and grand children.
1 Cor. 16:13, "Act like men, be strong."
Sheep are imitators, as they watch the movies and imitate the actors.
Sound bites and the hate crime fears, as the preacher tells that
he hates the assembly of evil doers, as they are antichrists.
The Muslim man at Fort Hood and those who were afraid to report him.
Old time movie introduction, as the sound bite is played from the movie.
Baton Rouge, and fighting the British Marines, who captured a ship during the War for Independence. A call for gathering stout hearted men to regain the captured ship from the hands of the British.
"We've got to fight for our freedom and take our ship back."
"It's our own ship that we are taking back."
"Show the king's marines how the king's rebels can fight."
"Give me some men who are stout hearted men."
"When stout hearted men stick together man to man."
"Never fear and you'll see it through."
"Who will fight for the right they adore."
"Willing to fight and willing to die."
Jack Mohr was a real man, and he used to sing that song.
He was a man's man.
Men will rise up again and be filled with the Spirit of God again.
Satan begins to tremble when men and women
of God begin to pray in earnest fervently.
Rise up and pray the prophesy, as we confront the evil.
We occupy and make the foot stool ready for our King Jesus.
Prayer for men again, like flocks in Jer-USA-lem, be full of men of God again.
Ezekiel 36:37, "Thus says the Lord GOD, "This also I will let the house of Israel ask Me to do for them: I will increase their men like a flock."
 
 
 
 
SINGING PRAISE AND WORSHIP
"Jesus Is Coming, and Boy is He Ticked," song one.
The Sunday morning "Seer" service.
Don't tell new people you are witnessing to that you're a preacher.
Tell them you are a seer.
2 Thessalonians 1:5-8, "This is a plain indication of God's righteous judgment so that you will be considered worthy of the kingdom of God, for which indeed you are suffering. For after all it is only just for God to repay with affliction those who afflict you,  and to give relief to you who are afflicted and to us as well when the Lord Jesus will be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels in flaming fire, dealing out retribution to those who do not know God and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus."
Ecclesiastes 12:13, "The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man."
"You've Got To Walk That Lonesome Valley," song two.
"Stand By Me," song three.
Making melody in our hearts for our King Jesus.
"We Have Come To Take Communion, It's Food For The Soul," song three.
"We will be healed body and soul, His word will be fulfilled."
 
 

 
 
COMMUNION SUPPER EXHORTATION
Note the booklet, "Communion and Its Potential Blessings and Curses."
Order this from the ministry as a free gift or read it at the web site.
The unleavened bread represents the Body of Christ,
and the fruit of the vine represents the Blood of Christ.
"This do in remembrance of Me," said Jesus.
He is the Master, and we do this in obedience to Him.
1 Corinthians 11:24, "And when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, "This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me."
Doing what you are told to do is obedience.
God wants His body of believers to be faithful.
Ephesians 4:4, the body of Christ is the church.
A living body, with Jesus as the Head and we are the body.
Galatians 3:27. Clothed with Christ in baptism.
The whore is Catholicism,
and the denominations are the children of the whore.
When you come against evil, such as homosexuality,
the world's antichrists will come against you.
Luke 6:26, "Woe to you when all men speak well of you, for their fathers used to treat the false prophets in the same way."
Matthew 16:18, "And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."
John 6:61, "But Jesus, conscious that His disciples grumbled at this, said to them, "Does this cause you to stumble?" 
His truth proclaimed led to a collapse of the Galilean ministry.
Success in a ministry is measured by the truth that it proclaims.
"How can this man give us His flesh to eat?...
has eternal life....true food...true drink...
abides in Me and I in Him."
See how important it is to continue to abide in Him.
Taking communion is one of the ways we continue to abide in Him.
"Many therefore of His disciples....difficult statement...
does this cause you to stumble....Spirit and are life."
Christians are invited to partake with us in communion.
Prayer for the preparation of our hearts to be soft, malleable, viable,
as we repent of our sins, and we do this in remembrance of You.
Bless as we do. We partake together.

 
 
 
February 7, 2010, SERMON NOTES, today's title, "Confession."
The job of the seer, and you are coming to the steak house,
for the meat of God's word.
In God's word, we both the meat of the word and the milk of the word.
Today's message is a good glass of milk for equipping the saints.
"When saw we Thee?"
Those laboring in the Lord's vineyard are all hired servants.
The last hired laborers got the same pay of wages as the first hirelings.
Our God is generous.
Ephesians 4:11-12, "And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers,
for the equipping of the saints for the work of service,
to the building up of the body of Christ."
The prophet Isaiah said, "Here am I, send me!"
We have the idea, "Here am I, send the preacher or the elders."
When doing the work of service, proclaim, "Lord here am I, send me."
We are laboring to the building up of the body of Christ.
We love our little babies and watching them growing up.
We want to see them grow.
You would be upset if they remained babies all their lives.
We've got to grow, "Measure of the stature."
Many have been suckers for the traditions of men which invalidate the word of God. Men are so tricky and sheep are so naive,
that they are easily fooled, as they appeal to your vanity.
Hosea 4:6, "My people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge."
2 Peter 3:18, "Grow in the grace and knowledge."
Knowledge can puff you up and make you arrogant.
"Except you become as a child, you shall not inherit the kingdom of God."
"According to the proper working....walk no longer as the gentiles...."
Sin lyes in three categories: flesh, eyes, and vanity of life.
1 John 2:16, "For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world." As a Christian, you are going to be different than the world.
Ephesians 4:18, "Being darkened in their understanding, excluded from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them,
because of the hardness of their heart." Sin hardens the heart.
Sin promotes disbelief, as the sheeple proclaim,
"I just can't believe it!"
The antichrist enemies, the condemned snakes of Mark 16:16,
"He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved;
but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned."
The sewage refuse flows forth from the movies and television,
hardening the hearts of the sheeple watchers.
Ephesians 4:19, "And they, having become callous, have given themselves over to sensuality for the practice of every kind of impurity with greediness."
The sin that has become respectable is the greedy sin of covetousness.
Christians rob God in Malachi 3.
Greediness and covetousness abound today.
The preacher is working to equip you for the work of service,
if you are one of the saints.

 
 
 
The, "Getting Greater Faith," continuing sermon faith series,
will have more messages in the coming weeks.
We have powers of faith that you haven't imagined.
"CONFESSION," is today's message title.
We need to be fully equipped with the full armor of God,
and repetition in a key to learning.
Take a promise from God's word, say it out loud,
and then stand on that promise.
Gird your loins with truth.
The breastplate of righteousness.
Love the truth, believe the truth, and faith the truth.
When Abraham believed God, it was reckoned to him as faithfulness.
Shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace.
"Be anxious for nothing.....let your request be made known."
The helmet of salvation, and faithing the promise, Ephesians 6:17,
1 Thessalonians 5:8, and the hope of salvation.
Hebrews 11:1 gives the faith definition.
Let the shield take the beating. Ephesians 6:17.
Stand with patience, endurance, and sometimes suffering.
The sword is a defense weapon, in Ephesians 6:14-17,
and is both an offensive and defensive weapon,
as the word of God commands, "It is written."
"If you don't know what is written in your Bible, then you are defenseless."
We are equipping you for the work of service.

 
 
 
Challenging the saints in 2010.
The "Dragon Slayer Newsletter," write to the ministry and request one today!
Malachi 3:10, and the tithe, where God said, "Test Me."
"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this," says the LORD Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it."Bring in the whole tithe."
Spend the first ten minutes of your day in prayer,
at the beginning of the day.
Pray the imprecatory prayers.
Psalm 109 is being prayed on president Obama.
Order the booklet, "Don't Miss Out."
James 5:14, pray for the sick.
Pray on the full armor of God and the Lord's Prayer daily.
If He finds you working in the last hour, then you will get the full pay."

The Christian walk may bring the feelings of tiredness and depression,
as the forces of darkness war against you.
"Confession," and the equipping of the saints.
Understand the power you have in Christ.
Galatians 3:27, "For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ." 
Peter was given the keys to the kingdom,
and he admonished them in Acts 2:38.
The judeos use false doctrine to deceive you into believing you are born again. They don't teach the gospel word of God.
You put on Christ when you are baptized.
1 Corinthians 12:12, "Are one body......baptized into one body....
drink of one Spirit."
The fight of faith, and you have to fight to stay faithful.
The "I Am Confessional," will help you to stay strong in Christ.
Catholics have their followers confess their sins to one called, "Father," who is their earthly priest.
1 John 1, "He is faithful and righteous to forgive."
Flip side, confess all the things we are in Christ.
Write for the "I AM Confessional," from the ministry.
Remain faithful by using the "I Am Confessional."
 
 

 
 
In the Popeye cartoons, Brutus would always beat up Popeye,
as they fought over Olive Oil.
The wise virgins had the olive oil, and the foolish did not.
"I am that I am," and the can of spinach represented the Holy Spirit.
"I am that I am, and that's all that I am."
In the end, Popeye would always overcome his bigger, brute beast adversary
through the power of the Holy Spirit in his can of spinach.
Zechariah 4:6, "Not by mighty power, nor by strength,
but by My Spirit saith the Lord."
God told Moses to tell pharaoh, "I am."
Confessing the, "I AM," will empower you.
Make these confessions honestly, when you are batized into Christ.
God said, "I am who I am."
Faith comes by hearing.
When you make that confession, they come to pass.
Hebrews 3:1, "Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the Apostle and High Priest of our confession."
Christ is the Apostle and the High Priest of our confession.
Believing in our heart, and repeating with our lips,
and acting on what we have confessed.
Confession is involved in salvation.
Romans 10:7-11, deals with confession.
Are you saved, brother? Saved from what?
Saved from our sins, diseases, and enemies.
Read. "The word of faith...confess with your mouth....shall be saved...
heart...mouth.....for all who call upon Him."
Confession unto salvation. Confession before salvation.
Jeremiah 1:11, God watches over His word to perform it.
"I am watching over My word to perform it."
Confession to our High Priest, Jesus Christ, 
then He watches over it to make it come to pass.
Hebrews 7:25, "Therefore He is able also to save forever those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them." He makes intercession for us.
"Christ The Healer, " F.F. Bosworth, writer of the book.
"The whole of scriptural truth."

 
 
"I Am Confessional," listed confessions, and you may write
in your own confessions of what you are in Christ.
Romans 5:9, "Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him."
1 Peter 1:18, 1 Peter 2:24, Ephesians 2:5-7.
Luke 10:19, "Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will injure you."
Philippines 4:13, "I can do all things through Him who strengthens me." 
Psalm 119:160, "The sum of Your word is truth, And every one of Your righteous ordinances is everlasting." "Thy word is True."
We clothe ourselves with Christ and contunue to abide in Him, as we acknowledge all we are in Christ.
Some of the confessions were read.
Mark 16:18, "They will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover."
Make these confessions and you body will belive it.
Romans 16:20, "The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet."
These are the things you are in Christ.
Write and request this from the ministry.

 
 
 
Words are powerful, so don't speak bad things into your life.
Don't underestimate the power of words.
Watch your words carefully.
Ephesians 4:29, "Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear."
Make positive affirmations in the, "I am Confessional,"
and this will help you in your work and service in the Lord.
Write and request this booklet from the ministry.
Closing prayer in accordance with Numbers 6:24-26.
