He seeks someone to worship Him in spirit and in truth.
We come in the Name of the Lord to worship Him.
Come to the House of the Lord with a Spirit of Worship.
Philippians 3:1, "Rejoice in the Lord....a safeguard to you."
Every commandment of the Lord is for our benefit,
and a benefit to us, as we worship in the Spirit of God
and in the glory of Christ Jesus.
Jesus said you make void the word of God by your traditions.
"If you love Me, keep My commandments."

Knot heads, spell casting, tie a knot, double mindedness, you become a knot head, as you hold two opposites as truth in your mind..

as we eat of His flesh and drink of His blood.
Get your heart right just before you take communion.

We partake, and grant us all the blessings through Your grace and mercy.
We partake together.

 
 
 
SERMON NOTES. November 29, 2009.
"Getting Greater Faith - Part 7."
Subtitled: "The Nuts and Bolts of Faith."
It's so simple!
Romans 12:3-4, "More highly of himself than he ought to think,
but to think so as to have sound judgment."
God has allotted to each one of us a measure of faith.
Arms, some are thick and some are thin.
Everyone that has arms can make their arms stronger if they want to.
Jude 20, "Build ourselves up in faith."
"Praying in the Holy Spirit."
Build your arms stronger.
The preacher is stronger than he looks.
He can bench press thirty pounds.
Start building your faith.
One man has been practicing his faith, as he prays when things got troublesome.
The preacher does an imitation of a little baby learning he has a hand.
Practice to use your hands and arms.
We can build up our faith and use it mightily.
 
 
 

 
We are given a measure of faith and we can build upon it.
We need to work at walking in faith and talking to the Lord.
The last sermon message was entitled, "Faith Fools."
You can use faith for your needs and wishes.
John 15:7, "Ask whatever you wish."
Through faith you can get these things, but don't use faith as a gimmick.
Sometimes the dirty dogs have fooled us.
"Golden Faith Power Pen," and the Platinum Pen.
One man suggested that the preacher should form an alter ego,
and go on TV, and bring in a lot of money for the ministry.
The preacher is called to reprove, rebuke, and exhort.

 
 
 
An 11 Page letter, "The Sermon Pastor Peters is afraid to preach."
"Truth junkies and their children are put at risk."
"Hesitant to put out this type of truth."
"Most of the charlatan preachers preach this, as they are almost right."
"I don't want anyone to think I am one of them."
"The Greatest Thing Elijah Ever Did," was an old message.
"The true meaning of giving."
Tithes and offerings, as our obedience is required to survive.
 

 
A prayer is made for the flock to prosper and be in good health.
Faith is acting on what you believe.
Double minded knot heads and they don't believe Malachi 3:10.

 
 
Today's message title, "The nuts and bolts of faith."
A man called Chrysler bought the Model T,
and he took it home and dismantled it.
He learned how to build the automobile after he learned how it was built.

 
 
Hebrews 11:1, contains the definition of faith from the KJV.
"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for,
the evidence of things not seen."
Faith is the assurance in the NAS.
"Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for,
the conviction of things not seen.
Four parts, faith is the substance, the first ingredient.
Breaking down the thing of faith.
Substance can be contacted with your senses.
Faith is the substance, and it can be contacted with the five senses.
The natural realm has some materiality and touch ability,
as a tree would have substance.
Touch, smell, feel, taste, and see.

 
 
Faith, "Of things hoped for."
Have great hope to have great faith.
Hope is the goal setter, and it causes you to smile in the face of adversity.
The David and Goliath illustration.
David faced the future with a smile, as he had great hope and smiled when he saw the future.
In Psalms 31, the woman is the bride of the Lord.
She smiled as she looked at the future,
as she knew who controls the future and who owns it.
Hope does nothing in and of itself.
Rather faith and hope work together.
Ephesians 5:8, the hope of our salvation helmet that radiates.
Hope is like hungering and thirsting for righteousness.
Today's Christians are defeated mentally, as they focus on the seen.
Hunger and thirst for righteousness, as you hope and you will get it!

 
 
 
The evidence, as the third thing, and another word for evidence is proof.
Proof and evidence are synonymous.
Illustration of the 1965 Ford Mustang automobile as a graduation present.
Wish for a Mustang auto, and then the title is given.
"Here is the title, Peter."
I got me a Mustang, 1965, with a four on the floor.
Faith is the evidence, as the title paper is evidence that he got the Mustang.
It's the same thing with a title deed for a house.
The title deed tells us the house exists.
How many believe that the preacher is here? A trick question.
You don't have to believe he is here, because you can see him.
Evidence in the photo identification card shown.
You believe because you see the evidence of the DL, with photo.
Until it comes into physical substance, the proof evidence will suffice.

 
 
 
Evidence of, "Things not seen."
You see it when you believe it.
There is an unseen world, and this is the faith world.
The unseen world is scary to them.
Several realms, supernatural and the natural.
This outside the tree dimensional of the unseen supernatural realm of faith.
2 Kings 6:15, Prophet Elisha, "What shall we do?"
The enemy wants you to see that you are surrounded.
"Those who are with us are more than those who are with them."
Horses and chariots of fire all around us.
We need to look into the unseen.
 
 

 
The Canaanite is a thorn in the side and a prick in the eye.
The thorn in the side makes meat digestion difficult.
The prick in the eye makes it hard to see the unseen.
Jesus will open our eyes so that we will see the unseen.
Jesus said, "Buy eye sauvé and put it on your eyes so that you may see."
Have eyes to 
2 Corinthians 5:7, "For we walk by faith, not by sight."
2 Cor. 4:18, "While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal."
We broke it all down to the nuts and bolts of the substance.
The substance of the thing hoped for.
The goal and desire and let it be radiant in our minds.
We are hungering and thirsting for the good things in our lives.
 
 
 

 
When he was a young boy, the preacher wanted a horse real bad,
so his daddy finally said he will get him a saw horse.
Set a goal and set your mind on it.
He got some much horse riding before he was 21 years old,
that he didn't care if he rode a horse ever again.

 
 
 
Where does this exist? In the unseen world.
Faith is to get the unseen into the seen area where it is tangible.
David saw Goliath stretched out, with head cut off, and not breathing.
David smiled as he went forth onto the battle field.
He had the coroner's report right there.
It came from the unseen into the world.
Hebrews 11:3, "What is seen is not made by things visible."
It is made by invisible things, and came to be seen by the word of God.
Let it be, and it came to be.
Speak your prayers out loud, as you speak it into existence.
 
 

 
The tree was seen by God before we saw it.
Jesus saw it first in the unseen world.
Jesus could do nothing more than you and me,
as He was a man, but He was a man with faith.
"Anything you can do I can do better."
John 5:19, "The Son of man can do nothing of Himself,
unless it is something He sees the Father doing."
"Unless I see it in the unseen."
This is fitting perfectly with the definition of faith.
Hebrews 11:27, "By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured, as seeing Him who is unseen." NAS.
"By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the king's anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible." NIV.
Jesus was looking at the unseen and seeing the Father doing it.
A funeral was held, and there is a new widow and a new fatherless son in Israel.
The preacher and some elders prayed over
the sick for healing, and pictured God's healing hand,
and the unseen and the mind working right again,
and hoped for the healing in the unseen,
seeing the Father massage the brain.
A little improvement in healing happens when the prayer is made,
and then you stand on the promise,
as this is God's will done on earth as it is in heaven.
Don't let Satan back you down from your standing firm in your faith, believing.

 
 
 
The seen and the unseen realms.
In the Natural, you see it.
In the Supernatural, you don't see it.
It is what you know in God's word,
and then you see the substance that you hoped for materialize.
When you know what is there in the unseen,
you can create that substance from there to be here in the seen.
We know it exists in the supernatural,
then we can manifest it in the seen, the natural realm.
Angels exist in the supernatural, as God's word tells us they do.
John 15:7, "Abide in Me, and My word abides in you."
You've got to have God's word abide in you.
That is where you are able to see the unseen.
Psalm 106 tells us the way of the wicked will perish.
I hope and hunger and thirst for his perishing.
We pray God's will on earth as it is in heaven.
The wicked are scared to death of the Psalm 109 prayer.

 
 
 
In Jeremiah, it tells us He will extract the precious from the  worthless.
Just 300, as in the Gideon Elite force, using this can take over the whole world.
October's imprecatory prayer used Zechariah 14:12
November used Psalm 109.
Bumper stickers now appearing showing, "Pray Psalm 109:8."
Pray the entire passage from Psalm 109.
Continue to pray the Psalm 109:1-21.
Always pray the Preparatory Prayer first.
Make your own Imprecatory Prayer following the instructions provided.
How to prepare it, using the guidelines,
in the December newsletter which instructs.
Daniel started praying that prophesy,
when he read that the days of captivity had been fulfilled, and it came to pass.
Lift up your holy hands and lift up your eyes and pray.
You look in the word of God, and then you see the unseen.
Many Prophesies are listed that are yet to be fulfilled.
You put in your own targets.
Many targets are mentioned, including the assembly of evil doers on Capitol Hill.
Pray Psalm 109 word for word,
or change them as necessary to fit the prayer targets.
Pray in faith believing.
"Ask the Father for anything..believe that you have received them."
The power of faith grows, as the saints become mighty in the Lord,
flexing their faith muscles.
Heb.11:1 KJV, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."
Closing prayer in accordance with Numbers 6:24-26.
"Battle of Meggido," song closes the message.
