zero zero one nine I want to speak to
you about living without fear I said
living without fear how many have
arrived there is it may I see your hand
oh you got two in the car
I like an appointment with you after
service both you must know something I
don’t know please Luke the first chapter
Luke one beginning to read verse 68
blessed be the Lord God of Israel for
the visited and redeemed his people and
hath raised up a horn of salvation for
us in the house of his servant David as
he spake by the mouth of his holy
prophets which have been since the world
began
that we should be saved from our enemies
and from the hand of all that hate us to
perform the mercy promised to our
fathers and to remember his holy
Covenant the oath which he sware to our
father Abraham and listen to this please
that he would grant unto us that we be
delivered out of the hand of all of our
enemies might serve him without fear in
holiness and righteousness before him
all the days of our life did you know
that was in your Bible and what did you
do skip over it let’s deal with it
Heavenly Father we thank you for your
almighty presence here thank you Jesus
for your word thank you for the Holy
Spirit that takes that word and makes it
life to us now I need a touch from your
father Lord Jesus I need your presence I
need the quickening I need the strength
that is supernatural beyond my own
strength now lord I pray that you teach
us from your heart show us Lord
something from your word that will never
be lost that will take us through the
days ahead and Christ’s name I pray amen
this is a promise made the scripture
says from the beginning of time
prophesied by every prophet since the
beginning of time a promise of great
mercy that was going to come by a Savior
by a messiah and it was small
and by the Lord Himself to Abraham and
the promise contained two elements first
that we would be delivered from the fear
of all of our enemies we’d be delivered
from our enemies and second the Covenant
promise is that we should live the rest
of our days and righteousness and
holiness without fear
now that’s an amazing covenant promise
to live the rest of our days and as I
said I have not reached that I see how
to get there now because God would have
never put this promise on ahead of us
without showing us how to get there he
would not dangle that in front of our
eyes and then make it impossible to
obtain or to arrive at this place now
there there is in the scripture clearly
outlined a pathway away to a life
without fear now these are the most
fearful times man’s ever known there is
fear on every side Jesus prophesied of
these days at men’s hearts would fail
them what with fear watching those
things that are coming upon the earth
and I see this promise and I have to
admit I’ve not arrived and Paul the
Apostle took a long time to arrive here
you find that in his writings and in his
confessions we may have experienced the
first part of this promise deliverance
from our enemies the principalities and
powers of darkness
this typifies the cross of Jesus Christ
and the victory that was one there he
put his foot on the heel of the serpent
and he brought down the powers all the
prints and powers of darkness and we we
have experienced that in your lifetime
you’ve seen God deliver you many of you
right now would not be here if you had
not been delivered from the power of the
enemy
he came against you tried to destroy you
and he still has that in his mind if
you’ve set your heart to seek God with
everything in you you were a target of
his envy
you are a target and he will come at you
and many of you sitting here in fact if
you’ve known Jesus for any period of
time you have experienced this part of
this covenant promise this great mercy
promised from the beginning of the world
now think about that for a minute
this was promised from the beginning it
was prophesied by all the prophets said
a time is coming there would be a day of
people live without fear and that was
predicting the coming of the Lord Jesus
Christ so that not only are we free from
the principalities and powers of
darkness but no matter what happens in
our last generation and really at the
cross was the beginning of the last days
when Jesus went in the grave was
resurrected that was the beginning of
the last days we’re at the last of the
last days and this is a promise that’s
been there all this time very few of
laid hold of it very few have gone on
because they’ve given up thinking it’s
almost him that it is impossible to live
a Christian life without fear I’m not
talking about those sudden fears that
come when you’re in a crisis and that
that human element that that surprise
but you see it’s a matter of a lifestyle
we’re talking about living or whole life
God can bring us through those crises
but we don’t dwell that we don’t live in
that fear we don’t let it take take hold
and become a bondage into our lives now
John explains it in one sentence
perfect love cast out fear say it
perfect love casts out fear that’s
John’s explanation perfect love cast out
fire and you’ll find that and first John
4:18 and if you want to turn to first
John that’s where I’m going I’m going to
be speaking primarily from first first
John in the first three chapters forgive
my voice of you will please now
John does not say perfect love for God
cast out fear it does not say that
listen closely
it does not say perfect love or mature
love or unwavering love for God cast out
fear that is not where John begins
perfect love for the believer begins in
loving one another how do I give this to
you in the scripture and if you will it
will say now you can say any any man
have got any believer can say he’s doing
God’s will that you may be a teacher in
the church you may be a Christian worker
you you may be one who ministers for the
Lord full-time or part-time you can be
walking in faith you can be a prayer
lawyer
you can be full of the holy spirit but
you will never come into this perfect
love there are two parts of this perfect
love and John does not begin with your
love and my love for the father that’s a
given that is that is something that we
we all know is a part of our Christian
walk and that’s a foundational truth but
that’s nowhere John begins John begins
by saying perfect love has to do with
loving one another loving everyone in
the body of Christ I’m reading first
John 2:9 he that saith he is in the
light and hateth his brother is in
darkness even unto now and I’m saying
you will never understand how to live a
life free from fear if you have a grudge
in your heart against anybody if you
have a spirit of revenge if there’s
anyone in the body of Christ anywhere on
the face of the earth that you have cast
off or cut off from you
Alysha it is absolutely impossible the
scripture says he that love another’s
brother abideth in death he that hateth
his brother is a murderer and we know
that no murderer hath eternal life
abiding in him and here is the perfect
love and here’s the foundational truth
that John gives us then that’s found in
1st on 4 11 and 12 beloved if God so
loved us we are also to love one another
if we love one another god dwelleth in
us now listen and his love is perfected
in us his love is perfected in us if you
look at me please the church has spent
centuries trying to bring us into
knowledge of our love for God John comes
along and said yes that’s the given that
we’re going to we’re talking now about
how to achieve a life how to move into
this covenant promise has been given
from the very beginning of time and
that’s why Paul view that the writer of
Hebrews said there’s a rest that remains
for the children of God because a life
without fear is the rest and he comes
now and he said this has to do with
relations relationships between in in
and between the body of Christ has to do
with Christians this has to do with
prejudice black white Hispanic whatever
you may be it has to do with those
feelings that come into the heart
listening to these I will not listen to
these guys on radio that are disputing
out there their bitterness and their
rancor and their racial epithets against
other people folks that cannot exist in
the Church of Jesus Christ that doesn’t
exist here hopefully and I’m not
preaching because I’ve heard anything of
racial prejudice or that there is any
difficulty in this church whatsoever I’m
interested in a life lived without fear
and I want to know how to get there and
John tells me the only way to get there
the first premise is this you have to
deal with your relationship with the
body of Christ God if we love one
another God dwells in US and his love is
perfected as in us now it’s it’s first
of all it’s not something we ought to do
it’s something we have been commanded to
do to love one another to love our
brothers until love our sisters in
Christ are you sitting here this morning
with anything in your heart anything
that would hinder the perfect flow the
flow of Christ’s love into another
person and to all persons in this body
and wherever you go when you meet
someone is full of Christ walking with
Jesus a member of the body of Christ
there should be this flow of love
unhindered in the heart
I stand here this morning and I’m not
boasting but under the Word of God and
under the anointing the Holy Spirit I I
don’t believe I could preach this
morning I don’t believe I could this
would be all hi this would be hypocrisy
if I stood here they had anything in my
heart toward any hear me be on my left
behind me or anywhere or to be able to
sit in my office and say God show me
somebody is there anybody that I have
discounted anyone I’ve gossiped about
anyone that I have shared my hurts or my
problems with anyone I’ve heard is there
anyone Lord if I said anything that
wounds or affects the reputation of
another member of the body of Christ
I can then never come into peace I can
never come into a life lived without
fear because the Holy Spirit in His
faithfulness to his mission will always
convict us when that done we’ll always
be Henderson never be a free flow of
worship if there is
something we harbor in our hearts
against anyone in the body of Christ I
told them this pulpit once at the time
that I was going through a hard time I
had some people saying some things about
me that hurt and wound and I was praying
said what Wow how can they do that to me
Lord and the Lord spoke clearly did my
heart has had with me honestly David
you’ve done that yourself to others
I said who he said get a pencil paper
this is true and the Lord took me back
over the years and there were 15 people
on that list Lord said you call every
one of them and you make things right
because somehow you hurt them because
they turned against you they felt it
eased to defame your name and so you
need to call and make it right how many
tears were shed how many people were
healed one pastor was so moved he said
I’m getting up Sunday I’m going to do
the same thing in my church and we got
letters and calls and people have heard
about it folks John John is saying look
if you want to walk in these fearful
times without fear make things right let
the Holy Spirit talk to you right now
I’m here see folks I’m not here to
preach a sermon I’m here right now
dealing with my own heart under the Word
of God and you also in fact there’s
there’s a warning in in the scripture
what first of all let me see we’re to
love as Christ loved first of all the
command this is the commandment you
should believe on the name of the son of
Jesus Christ on the son Jesus Christ and
love one another as he has commanded for
this is the commandment you’ve heard
from him and he who loveth God will love
his brother also you see
I’m talking about more than forgiveness
I’m talking about acceptance I’m talking
about taking all your hurts talking
taking everything that has been said
against you or hurt you or wounded you
are to a divorce whatever it may be and
you take that and you cast it in the
same sea of forgetfulness where he cast
uses he said he cast them innocence in
in the lake or sea that can never be
remembered against you and I believe
that’s the kind of love John’s talking
about there can be no hindrance that is
perfect love when you lay not just lay
it under the blood and say well well I
have forgiven but you see you can’t hide
from God he knows the heart you say you
have forgiven that man who divorced you
that that person on the job that is
wounded you and keeps hounding you and
you will say how can I forgive them they
keep hounding me they keep coming after
me it’s never again to repeat to others
what you perceive to be misjudgment or
injury to you or your reputation I’ll
say it again it’s to never ever repeat
to others what you concede when
perceived to be miss judgment or injury
to you I didn’t anticipate it being this
quiet in John 2 we find this serious
warning John speaks about walking in
truth walking faithfully to command this
commandment to love and then he calls it
the doctrine of Christ the doctor this
is knockin of Christ and you’ll find
this if you read in the second shop or
the second John the second chapter
there’s a second John rather you’ll find
this he’s talking about acknowledging
Jesus as God but in the context he’s
talking about this love for others
loving your brother
Loving You assistant and John calls that
the doctrine of Christ and then he goes
on and he says in second John nine and
eleven if one comes anyone comes to you
and brings not this doctrine receive him
not into your house neither bid him
Godspeed for he that biddeth him God
speed is partaker of his evil deeds I
don’t care if you heard it on a
telephone now I’m going to say this slow
and as sweetly and kindly as I can
I’m not going to rail on you but if
somebody is loading unloading and
burdening their heart and you perceive
in it something that is not christ-like
and you’re absorbing to hurt them the
despair of somebody else than their
telling you all the details I don’t care
if you had it in your house they came to
your house I don’t care if it was over a
coffee cup over across the street I
don’t care if you picked it up on
telephone I’m telling you the name of
the Holy Father telling you in the name
of the Christ of covering here it Bible
said if you bid them Godspeed
if you agree if you do not correct it in
the love of Christ and you listen some
seed is planted into your heart Bible
says if you bid them Godspeed you’re as
guilty as the person who did the
gossiping now folks that’s heavy stuff
that that that’s God’s Word and that
alarms my soul that checks me when
whenever there we have a tendency just
want to unload on other people and
there’s some people that digest I mean
they’re like sponges they take stuff in
there although then the Holy Ghost comes
and squeezes sometimes it’s very very
painful
now this matter of loving and forgiving
is a commandment yes but he said his
commandments are not Grievous you see
this is not just a commandment this is
an invitation this is an invitation from
the heart of God to come into a place
where you have perfect love that that is
called perfect love that’s the one half
when you come to this place where you
have learned to forgive and you’ve
learned to keep keep these things in
your heart and then have the holy spirit
pluck them out so that they’re gone they
don’t remain it’s not something that’s
part and there and still has a cedar
still has a root that you pluck the very
roots out and so that the love that you
have enables you to pray for that
individual or those individuals it
enables you to be a servant to them
it enables you to consider them as
righteous as yourself or more it enables
you to show them the very heart of
Christ to be a servant to be kind and
patient and to look upon them as members
of the same body of Christ then it
amazes me that some people who carry
grudges and carry hurts and carry
feelings and gossip and all of this to
other Christians and and then expect
somehow before they get to the throne of
judgment to somehow it’s just going to
dissolve that those feelings those hurts
somehow an angel don’t come earth only
goes going to come and just before you
step before Jesus suddenly that grudge
suddenly those thoughts that have taken
root in your heart and you think listen
if they’re in the body of Christ and
you’re in the body of Christ it’s the
same from the head flows the life of
Christ you are not at peace with your
so-called enemy you’re not at peace with
those who’ve hurt and wounded you until
you see the same resources the same
blood flowing through their veins the
same Christ
that there in the body of Christ and we
are one we are all one of the body of
Christ His commandments are not Grievous
for what suffers born of God overcomes
the world and this is the victory that
overcometh the world the world even our
faith and this is the confidence that we
have in him that if we ask anything
according to his will he hears us and we
know if he hears us whatever we ask of
him we have the petition that we ask of
him folks God is able and he invites us
to come and this is the first step you
can’t go the next step the perfect love
there is such a thing as perfect love
that doesn’t just mean mature love is
some interpreting it is a complete love
but you’ve got half the circle you have
completed half the consideration of
understanding perfect love the cast out
fear there’s another side I’ve just
shown you the one side now let me take
you to the other side of coming to this
place of perfect love it is to know and
believe the love that God has for us to
know and believe I give you the
scripture and it’s in in first John 4:17
and we have known and believed the love
that God hath to us now we’re again
talking about our love for God we’re
talking about his love for us we’re
talking about how to come into perfect
love that casts out all fear now folks
if this if this is not if this
is the scripture and I believe the
scripture the Bible says we have known
and believed the love that God hath to
us here in our in this way is our love
made perfect that we may have boldness
on the day of judgment because as he is
so are we in this world here in or in
this way is our love made perfect in
what way you see here we stand now we
have forgiven we have nothing in our
hearts that would hinder us at the
judgment you say well it’s under the
blood I’ve confessed it
but is it plucked out of your heart but
you see we’ve come to that place not
presume you hear this and you’re coming
to this place of the 1/2 of perfect love
the settled determination and knowing
that it’s wrong knowing that it’s sinful
and dealing with it with it with the
wonderful peace and patience of the Holy
Spirit because you see he’ll never drive
you to this he he will woo us to this
place this position I in my earlier
years I would get up and just scream at
this I heard one message not too long
God preached some 30 years ago and I
just turn it off it wasn’t because it
was not the truth but see I was bringing
the truth in on the wrong vehicle and it
wasn’t grace but you see we come to this
now and we have known and believed the
love that God hath to us and herein is
our love made perfect
here in his love not that we loved God
but that he loved us and sent his son to
be the propitiation for our sins let me
tell you how this works out in daily
life it is to believe that there is such
a thing as total dependence on God for
all things remember when God took the
children of Israel out into the
wilderness that I took you unto myself
he took them in the most impossible
situations where only a miracle could
solve the problems situation after
situation that they would begin to trust
wholly that he had all the resources
that he was all-in-all and we so glibly
say Christ is all Jesus is everything
but that’s just goodness sometimes
because when we get into crisis when
things come to a place of hopelessness
when there is no sign of a prayer being
answered when everything seems to be
going wrong and every hope you’ve had
has been dashed hope after hope is
arisen and every time you thought you’re
about to come out whether its finances
whatever it may be down again you go
until find you and hopeless I talked to
a pastor recently he said pastor David I
have passed all hope I see no hope
whatsoever he said I can’t even pray
anymore because I’ve given up absolutely
hopeless but you see when you get to
Exodus God begins to reveal himself he
calls Moses he said I’m going to deliver
and then God reveals his nature he
reveals what he will do for those who
trust and are dependent upon him in the
most difficult times folks faith is not
faith and that’s it’s tested to the
limit and the evidence of faith is rest
when you come in to arrest live or die
i’m the lord’s i’m not going to accuse
god of being unfaithful he told
Moses is Israel my people have cried
their cry has come up to me by reason of
their bondage and I have heard their
groaning the Lord said I have seen their
affliction I’ve heard their cry I know
their sorrows and I’ve come down to
deliver but to see when they took the
straw away from them and they had to
build the bricks without straw and they
were burdened down and they were being
beaten Moses goes and tries to encourage
them the scripture said but they would
not listen because of the anguish of
their spirit and there comes a time you
can become so anguished in your spirit
you cannot hear the Word of God
you say I’ve heard all those sermons
they don’t seem to work but you see God
is still looking for a people but will
totally depend on him in their crises
totally wholly dependent upon him God
said I brought you out of bondage to
bring you to myself he that feareth is
not made perfect in love
Bava said he that wavers let not that
man think he shall receive anything from
the Lord now let me try to illustrate
this part of knowing and believing the
love that God has toward us the delight
that he takes in his children it’s a
story of Joseph and his 10 brothers you
know the story well they’re jealous of
this young man they think their father
loves him more than the ten brothers and
they plot against him and they sell him
to a trade van that was headed to Egypt
he ends up in Egypt and a series of
intriguing events he is elevated to the
second-in-command next to Pharaoh in
Egypt and he gets he interprets
Pharaoh’s dream of seven years of famine
coming and he’s appointed the
second-in-command and he piles Mount
for seven years piling up mountains of
corn to take them to the seven years 17
years and the famine strikes the whole
world the Bible says Jacob the father of
the ten sons and father Joseph sends his
boys to Egypt to get bread now in this
story Joseph is a type of Jesus a type
of Christ in this particular setting and
they Joseph recognizes them but he they
don’t recognize him
and Joseph overhears them we are guilty
concerning our brother and that we saw
the anguish of his soul and he besought
us and we would not hear therefore this
distress has come upon us you see Joseph
had puts the money back in their bags
and the stewards brought them back and
now they’re standing in front of Joseph
and being accused of stealing money
Joseph wasn’t playing games had it he
had a purpose and what he was doing
seeing if these boys have learned any
less than whatsoever and he Joseph
listens to them he said and what they
were saying this is judgment this is
God’s judgment and so the scripture says
he overheard them and Joseph turned
aside and wept now it becomes very clear
in the story of Joseph his brothers that
he had already forgiven them they were
already reconciled before they knelt and
said we’ve sinned they were totally
reconciled
Joseph reconciled himself as God and
Christ God in Christ has reconciled
himself to the whole world
he reconciled himself to you when you
were sinner when ureas enemy he said he
removed every barrier that keep you away
from his presence and through the blood
and through faith in Christ through
repentance and forsaking of sin
come into that reconciliation and Joseph
is yearning to reveal his heart to these
boys though they had turned against him
though they had sinned grievously and
though they may not have learned much of
anything and here is Joseph just like
our Heavenly Father wanting wants to
reveal his heart to his people where his
brother where his sister and he wants to
reveal his heart to show his love that
he has toward us does this that brings
us into that perfect love that cast out
all fear
and there they’re looking back at their
past sin and this their all their sins
is coming up to the mind now and Joseph
is not thinking about their sins right
now he’s trying to reveal his heart he’s
trying to reach them in love while we
were enemies we were reconciled to God
by the death of his son there came a
time when they brought when they brought
Benjamin to him and this I think it was
the second trip the scripture says and
he wept aloud and he said to them come
near me do not be grieved nor angry with
yourself for God sent me before you to
preserve us and then he gathers him
around he said I’m Joseph I’m your
brother
there was a revelation they saw the
tears they saw they were kissed they
were hugged there was a revelation of
his heart
he said this is how I feel there’s no
anger toward you you reconcile I
reconcile myself now you be reconciled
I’m not interested in what you did way
back there I’m here now to show you my
heart
he said I’m Joseph have you yet been
there he said come to me he’s in the
house as was the prodigal son and now
he’s at the table and they’re feasting
and Joseph is revealing his heart and
you know the story he said is
your father still living still living I
said yes Joseph sends a wagon load after
wagon load after wagon load of every
delicacy of Egypt and corn and grain and
he said just till my father there’s more
bring everybody every the whole clan is
brought to eat in the Bible says Joseph
placed his father and his brothers and
gave them a possession in the land of
Egypt in the best of the land now once
you get this picture please here they
are forgiven here they are in the land
here there are with all the provisions
they could think of every storehouse is
open and Joseph said the whole land is
open to you everything you ever will
need and they go to Goshen and for 17
years while Jake is still living they
live under the provision for 17 years
Joseph’s house is open 17 years
Joseph keeps love on his brothers 17
years living under these provisions
Jacob dies this is an incredible
procession indicated were they they bury
Jacob
one of the biggest funerals probably in
history of Egypt and they fellowshipped
they wept together at the gravesite they
saw his heart they saw his love and the
day they get home they say now that our
father is gone Joseph would probably
hate us and take revenge on us and they
run to Joseph they see before our father
died he commanded us to come to you and
confess our sin and beg for mercy here
we are to be your servants to be your
slaves
and Joseph broke down now think of it
please
17 years of living in fear 17 years of
playing over there old sins that are
already been forgiven
17 years living in the fat of the land
and living in constant fear Joseph will
get us Joseph still and can’t believe
the love that Joseph showed because they
were judging him by their own hearts
what was in their hearts do you get the
picture perfect love is not just how
much I and how devoted I am to God but
that perfect love according to scripture
here as that we know and believe the
love that he has for us that is the
cross that is the glory of the Cross
every provision folks some of you saved
for years and you’re still living like
you’re a popper it’s still not entering
in that God has an answer God’s going to
meet you God knows away he’s going to
make away I determined by God’s help in
the power of the Holy Spirit not to live
that kind of life any more to his word
he heals us through his word you see
this is perfect love I’m in line with
God now with my brothers and sisters I’m
in line with the scripture there are no
hindrances nothing that would rebuke me
before the throne of Christ nothing that
could be a spot against me I’m I am
clean by the blood and by obeying the
word I have done what the word says to
do and now I come to you Father when I
believe that in spite of my failures and
my ups and downs sometimes Lord I get so
down I say things about you
you know let me tell you why he’s
weeping Joseph is not weeping because he
feels he’s been hurt how ungrateful he’s
not hurt because of their ingratitude
they’re ignorant I believe it was just
like Jesus when he came to Lazarus – and
Mary who trusted him so much doubted him
and Bible said jesus wept he was not
weeping about lasses he knew lasses be
dead raised in the next 10-15 minutes
you know what he was weeping about the
same thing Joseph was weeping give up oh
my poor brothers yeah my poor sister
that’s Jesus saying what pain you must
have if you carried this he was feeling
the pain of how how we inflict upon
ourselves all these fears and and fears
of man fears of all kinds of fears we
inflict on ourselves then he’s feeling
that pain then Joseph was saying first
he’s saying to himself I’m sure for
seventeen years they still don’t know me
they still have lived so underneath
their privileges it was his hurt we
talked about grieving the Holy Spirit
let me tell you how I think that works
out more and more I see it it’s the Holy
Ghost grieving and self-inflicted pain
and fear anxiety all these things were
inflicted ourselves because we simply
will not trust his word we will not lay
our lives in our future in his hand
folks when you come to this place this
is called perfect love that cast out
fear these two elements then something
wonderful happens
gladness flushes and disclose the
gladness of God david said in his place
there’s gladness when you’re in his
place this place of freedom from revenge
and all those things and now you know
you’re beginning to know and understand
you see this doesn’t come all of a
sudden this knowledge of god’s love is
not just going to be infused overnight
you’re not going to hear from one or two
sermons it’s getting this scripture
they’ve just quoted first john and you
read that every day until it becomes
life to you and you begin to open it
more and more i’m going to close with
the Ransom of the lord shall return and
come to Zion with songs of everlasting
joy upon their heads they shall attain
joint gladness sorrow and sighing shall
flee away the Lord is my light and my
salvation whom shall I fear the Lord is
the strength of my life of whom shall I
be afraid though a host in camps against
me my heart shall not fear this is where
the gladness comes I don’t have to try
to earn God’s love I don’t have to get
down and fast and pray for the left I
fast and pray because I love him because
I know that that does something for me
in union with Christ Lord Jesus we thank
you that there was such a victory at the
cross the weaken our hearts can reach
out and receive the love of God the love
of our Heavenly Father and through
Christ His Son Jesus said if you’ve seen
me you’ve seen the father and this is
the marvelous love the Christ is shown
to his body into his church
Lord forgive us for straying at times
forgive us O Lord for allowing the flesh
to rise and we have allowed things in
our lives of God that have just hindered
the flow now Lord remove those stumbling
blocks remove them so that we can look
to the throne we can see Christ’s high
and lifted up and we’ve seen nothing but
showers of gladness and showers of love
Lord we will depend upon you in the days
ahead these are days Lord of absolute
confusion all over the world people
don’t know what to do but Lord there
should be a testimony in these fearful
times there should be of people who know
who they are in God they should know who
they are in Jesus Christ they should be
what we should be walking o Lord without
fear so that all around us there is fear
but here is an island of fearlessness
because we know you and your
faithfulness and our hearts are clean
before you please stand please
forgive my stumbling around here this
morning I had this show problem I met a
I have a problem if I ask everyone who’s
had something against somebody come down
here I’d be exposing you I won’t do that
folks would just be still in the
presence of the Holy Spirit by your
heads Holy Spirit I’m asking I’m asking
is the founder of this church that there
would be a supernatural work that you do
now that doesn’t have to be any pleading
or screaming doesn’t even have to be
tears but something that’s accomplished
in the heart God will you speak their
individual within the sound of my voice
and show the heart what is in the heart
in all Holy Spirit will you come now and
do your blessed work and plucking out of
our spirit plucking out of our heart
everything that’s unlike you you said
your commandments are not Grievous and
will you do that now just this in the
annex –an everywhere and Lord that this
church times for church would never be
hindered never be hid that there would
be nothing that would hinder the flow of
the holy spirit Lord you’ve been flowing
for over 20 years in this church and we
pray against every racial feeling this
not like you everything of God that’s
unlike you that is gotten into the heart
take it away Lord Jesus heal our spirits
heal our hearts so that the love can
flow and Lord Jesus help us to lay hold
of the knowledge in the truth that you
truly love us
you are not hurting us you’re not
railing against us you’re coming with
your grace and mercy and love to say
follow me follow me now into the
fullness follow me now the Holy Spirit
says in the perfect
and that perfect love will cast out your
fear you don’t have to work on it the
love the perfect love that completed
love will drive out all fear
hallelujah if there’s any reason at all
you have to walk down this aisle up in
the balcony or in the main floor there’s
any reason the Holy Spirit speaking to
you to come down here I’ll pray for you
we don’t count heads or numbers but the
Holy Spirit is here there’s been a deep
quiet work here and if if you feel that
you need me to pray for you to stand
with you and something does dealing
about you get right out your seat comes
you don’t know Christ if you slipped
away from Jesus if you’re going cold
toward him and you need a fresh touch
from though I want you to come down here
and we’ll believe it in the doc going to
go to the stairs on either side and in
in the overflow rooms you can just step
forward between the screens and I’ll
pray for you oh and we’ll believe God
for a miracle a bit of God to touch you
you will walk out of here renewed by the
Spirit of the Living God will you listen
to me police as soon as you get out the
door that was going to start throwing
lies into your mind and spirit you’re
not worth it the God really doesn’t love
you that you’re not worthy of that love
no none of us are worthy of that love he
doesn’t love it because you’re worthy
because of some great thing you have
done so here’s here’s what God has told
me to do listen closely don’t ever
repeat the lies of the devil plants in
your mind you’re just giving him time
and space don’t ever repeat it just take
the Christ and say Jesus I reject this
they will never repeat what the devil
tries to speak in your heart about God
not loving you or any other lie that
comes
from the pit of hell I want you to pray
this prayer with me and some of you are
coming to be renewed maybe some of you
for the first time but I want you to
pray this if you will please Lord Jesus
forgive me I ask you for forgiving
spirit a loving spirit I ask your father
to give me a spirit of mercy as you have
shown me mercy Oh God

you Jesus for the cleansing of all my
sins because I’ve confessed and I’ve
repented and I believe that Christ is
Lord help me now till they hold of this
truth take out of my heart all
bitterness everything it has to do with
hatred anything of the flesh I give it
to you Jesus cleanse me and heal my
spirit in my mind now just give him
