Chang what then are the impurities to be
removed by chastening
specifically what are the impurities to
be removed by chastening I kind of
already told you but as the purpose of
the the of the discipline that comes by
grace that discipline by Grace is to
produce Godly living and this was seen
all throughout the New Testament as
complete dependence upon
God complete dependence upon God
so it is the life of a
believer that is not dependent upon God
that’s called
impurity it’s that life that does not
depend upon God that life that does not
trust God that’s the that’s the impurity
that needs to be removed by chastening
the life that doesn’t depend upon God
now now this is this is how I I
understand this it’s like okay we live
our lives
and we have come to the point where it’s
like okay God I’m not depending on you
I’m trusting me I’m trusting me more
than I trust you I’m trusting me to do
this and I’m trusting me to get that
done I’m trusting me and there is no
there’s no dependent on God the most
important thing that I have learned in
this walk of Grace is to make my
Declaration of dependence upon God every
day
God help
us God help us and my prayer is Lord
help me not to deceive
myself I depend on
you I depend on you to wait me up in the
morning I depend on you for my health my
strength I depend on you for my
promotion when there’s some people right
now who don’t think that is any need for
them to even ask God to bless a thing
they get an idea which came from God all
things come of thee Oh God and of thy
own have we given thee and we don’t even
we don’t even feel like it’s it’s
necessary to get God to bless
it because now we’re smart we have a
degree we know people we got
money what is all that uh going to do
it’s going to try to distract you from
your dependence on
him I trust God I and I trust God and I
need to let him know I trust him I need
I don’t want to start nothing without
without starting depending on him I need
him how’d you do this well you know I
you know go I had the five ways of doing
that you know I did that now you got you
got to work real hard to do no no no no
not me what T say this morning not by
might not by your power but by my spirit
sayith the Lord I depend on God what’s
happening right now I don’t want I
listen I don’t want the church to grow
because of my
intellect I don’t want things to happen
and they give me a a community service
award because of my
work whatever is done through the life
of crlo dollar and the world changes we
got to look to the heels from with
cometh our help our strength and our
help and our dependence comes from
him but you have to really open your
eyes to see how bad off this is right
now listen to people’s testimony Jesus
is not getting the credit no
more and that is an
impurity that cannot exist in
heaven because God has already seen that
movie and he knows How It Ends you
remember the one called
Lucifer and that
impurity is something that that he he’s
going to burn off
so it follows that all in the life of a
believer that is not in dependence upon
Him is an
impurity every self-centered thing is
included all dependence upon self all
self-will all satisfaction of selfish
desire all uh glory for
self
wow that causes you to examine yourself
I hope so it caused me to examine myself
I’m thinking like dude before I get up
and and think I’m just like oh I am just
look at me God I’m awesome I I I I I I I
minister to the poor I I I build houses
I I I pray for those who need prayer yes
I speak in
Tong I do
all and then you’ll squeeze in a little
quick to the glory of God
and I’m thinking oh my god dude I don’t
know I I don’t know I don’t want to say
anything but I don’t want you to get to
heaven and suffer loss and then look
back at me like dude why you in tell
us many humanly admirable things
together with all worldly lust and all
immorality require the chastening work
of God
God the chastening work of God Burns off
self
dependence and at times the chastening
work of the Lord is a preventive work
sometime God releases something to stop
you from doing something somebody say
how’ that work well Paul Paul knows
about it Paul experienced that this this
kind of chastening in 2 Corinthians 2
Corinthians CH 12 and 7 look at this 2
Corinthians 12:
7
yeah check check this out and and and he
says unless I should be exalted above
measure this is Paul unless I should be
exalted above measure through the
abundance of the
revelations that was given to me a thorn
in the flesh the message of Satan to
Buffet me lest I should be exalted above
measure so this provision of God’s grace
was a means to hold in subjection the
tendency of the flesh to
boast God allowed this to
happen to deal with the tendency of the
flesh to want to boast can you
imagine the Apostle Paul getting this
groundbreaking revelation of Grace more
Revelation than any man ever
got and he was a former Pharisee by the
way how tempted he would
be to really get arrogant and
boastful and eventually say look at the
Revelation look at my
Revelation and and and I saw
this the grace of God loves Paul Jesus
loves Paul so
much that a provision of God’s grace
wrapped up in a
thorn to prevent that from happening
because men had to see this was a
revelation from God
Almighty and Paul was just an
instrument where God could flow his love
through one man and deliver men from the
law into this New Testament of Grace
that’s how important it was that he was
not in the
way they had to see God not
Paul we love picking out our heroes and
forgetting that you already have one
[Applause]
I’m good bro I don’t want nobody admire
me like that I’m lightning I’m good bro
I’m good being a slave to
Christ I’m good I do not want to be
going to heaven and and and and God say
you suffer loss because you up here in
your self- dependence no no no Lord no
no no Lord I mean when I get to the gate
I ain’t got no list about what I did
they ask me why should we let you in I’m
G to say because of God’s grace I am
what I am I am not who I am because of
anything about me I depend on God and I
depend on God to unlock that gate and
let me
in no other help I
know if I withdraw myself from Thee I
don’t even know where to go
that kind of
dependence and you know what the church
has done most of them have declared a
declaration of independence from
God God helps those who helps
themselves the Bible says that he’ll
help those who help themselves and I
thought it was scripture until I went to
looking for it one
day and you know what I discovered God
never said that
God didn’t say he helps those who helps
himself you know what he said he said I
help those who need help amen
amen that’s just an excuse we use to go
at it without
god well if you just if you take one
step he’ll do the rest so you mean you
mean to tell me all of God stepping is
going to be based on my one
step so God’s power is limited to my one
step h I have had things that happen in
my life when I couldn’t take a step
Hallelujah but he start taking a step
and start carrying me every time he
stepped Hallelujah that’s the kind of
God I serve a god that’ll pick me up
Hallelujah and I can depend on him to
step when I can’t
[Applause]
step I apologize I I’m I’m not trying to
like scream on purpose like this because
it it it’s really hurt my my voice but I
he is so awesome I mean what a
God oh he’s doing all this
stuff he loves me and I need him and I
don’t want to be without
him that’s why you’ll never hear me say
thank you Lord for bringing that back
you’ll never hear me
say if you don’t have enough Faith don’t
come down here
you know we having a prayer something I
tell you one thing you got to have pray
faith if you don’t have enough Faith
don’t come down
here well now what if you got a whole
bunch of folks who well I ain’t got no
faith but I sure am in
pain here’s what I
believe honey if you ain’t got no faith
come on down here we believe God will
get you some on your way on down here
come on I depend on him to give you
whatever you need on the way down here
hallelujah
would done got a little bit too too high
strong in
church everybody think they know it all
in I listen I just believe what I preach
God will fix it all when I get there
glory to God I might not have it all
like you perfect preachers do I just
preach what I believe and I I preach
what I see in my life and look at what
God has done here and it it might not be
100% f flawless flawless but it’ll get
you there I guarantee you it’ll get you
there and he might have to take half my
book and just T out and leave me with a
paragraph and say baby this what you got
right that that’s all right with me
because I’m not there because of the
whole book he to out I’m there because I
totally depend on him
[Applause]
Hallelujah I need you take a breath all
that holling again my God
God all
right so the one purpose of this
purifying work of the father is that we
might be partakers of his Holiness go to
1 Thessalonians 4 and 7 and this is this
is about to get really radical 1
Thessalonians 4 and7 he says for God has
not called us unto
uncleanness but he’s called us unto what
H holiness
not to uncleanness but Holiness so
that’s number one number two the the
second purpose is that it might that it
might yield the Peaceable fruit of
righteousness so righteousness is the
root but the fruit of righteousness is
the
results and so he’s talking about
chastening us so we can see the fruit of
righteousness which is results how many
youall ready to see some results in your
life amen
[Applause]
partakers of his
Holiness and so we can see some fruit of
righteousness
so the Peaceable fruit of righteousness
is said to be unto them which are
exercise go back to Hebrews 12 and 11
but let’s let me read this in the NLT
Hebrews 12 and 11 in NLT so the
Peaceable fruit of righteousness is said
to be unto them which are exercised by
the chastening exercised by by the
chastening the chastening that exercises
us he says this in verse 11 no
discipline is enjoyable while it is
happening how many how many ever went
back in in the exercise room you ain’t
been there in two years and you back in
that exercise
room and you you used to could do 100
push-ups you can’t do but a half of
one that is not enjoyable while it’s
happening it’s
painful and you go there you get sore
and then you start lifting weights up
and you’re more sore and you think is
the soreness ever going to stop it’s
painful but afterwards there will be a
Peaceable
Harvest here it’ll be a Peaceable
Harvest of right living for those who
are trained in this way for those who
are exercised in this
chastening there’s a training that God
has taken us through so we can enjoy the
results of that
training and whatever it is you might
have been addicted to drugs sex Whatever
Whatever It Is God loves you he says I’m
I’m going I’m going to start exercising
you I’m going to start training you and
it’s not going to be enjoyable for a
moment you’re going to have to say no to
this and no and Lord help me here and
you might find yourself praying past one
hour
I but he says you know what there’s
going to come a time for those who will
exercise in this chastening that you’re
going to have a
harvest and you’re going to be able to
see the
result of the exercise or the training
that comes from this
chastening you got to let God train you
cuz here’s going to be the key to this
training yielding somebody say
yielding the clay must yield to the
Potter’s
exercise if it is to become a vessel of
beauty the goal must yield to the
exercise of the
fire if it is to become
pure the drops of water must yield to
the exercise of the sun’s rays and the
cool of the night to be transformed into
the Dew
Drop
yield is the key word in each of these
cases
so the believer is to is is exercised by
the
chastening only as he yields to the hand
of
God when you’re being
corrected in love disciplined in
loved something some Affliction happened
in your life but you know God loves you
are you willing to take out of that
Affliction the wisdom necessary to be
better don’t be like a dog and return to
your
vomit no
fruit of righteousness without yielding
to the hand of the
Potter so something you’re still
depending on yourself still depending on
yourself and then something happens
where you got to depend on
God and so while you were exercising and
learning how to depend on
God it
ceased and you did
too and went right back to
doing what he what you just you you
successfully exercise you’re in shape
you’re bearing the fruit or the result
of your righteousness
as a result of the junk you had to go
through it’s like dude I don’t want to
go through that no more and you knew in
here that God is is trying to get you
from doing
that he tells you don’t do
that and then you do it and then he says
okay you I see you going it’s going to
be like this okay well I’m going to
permit this thing going to happen to you
and then you know something happened to
you you get something you oh Lord Jesus
all cry he says all right I’m going to
permit this he said cuz I’m God and I
and and I love you but I’m trying to get
you to see the results of this
chastening and I can fix everything that
was messed up in the
process but it’s not going to be by your
might I’m trying to show you how awesome
I am in your
life but you keep going back to your
self effort thing I I I did that when I
uh I I finished that operation got those
T tumors moved out the way went back in
my bathroom and saw those 80 bottles of
supplements and by by by by training I
was getting ready to take them all again
and I just said
no no I will never take all of those I I
still take some but not no
80 I told my doctor that he said who who
told you to do
that now I was depending on those things
more than I was dependent on
God I don’t want to I don’t want to go
[Applause]
back after I see the fruit of depending
on
him you know what what happens when you
done did everything you know to do watch
this and it doesn’t work have you ever
been that before I’ve done everything I
know to do and it’s not
working now watch this here’s what we
say I don’t I don’t know why we don’t
get this and and finally I said God I
don’t know what else to do so I guess I
might as well trust
you and then something awesome
happens anybody ever did that before
over and over again right I done look
for a job I done called I don’t went on
the internet I done called all the
people who promised me they get me a job
I did everything I knew to do well heart
I might as well trust you and God was
like good I’ve been trying to get you
out of my way for the longest I had your
job 4 months ago when you first
started so why didn’t he just give it to
you right then I’m trying to show you
the
necessity of trusting me amen not to
trust me optionally not an option no no
no to trust me as a
necessity as a
life waking up trusting me you know
stuff can happen these days and times
