•We live in a time when people are so full of self they can't receive the truth. Instead, we must seek first His righteousness: we must humble ourselves, confess our sin of fear and unbelief, turn from our own unrighteous ways, and turn towards God.
•Let history declare that we were those who chose holiness over heathenism and purpose over procrastination.
•We must be willing to embrace times of isolation. It is when we are at our lowest that we must realize God is still God.
PRAYER - "Blessed For Preaching Righteousness"
We do not know what Noah preached, only that he was a preacher of righteousness. One solitary man effectively became the savior of the world. In his proclivity to declare righteousness, his words saved him, his family, and the future of humanity. For this, God blessed Noah and his sons. They inherited the entire earth. "By thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned," Matthew 12:37. Learn from Noah. Preach righteousness.
Genesis 9:8-9 - "God spake unto Noah, and to his sons ...saying, ...I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you."
PRINCIPAL - "His Vesture: Dipped In Blood, His Name Written On It"
"They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture," Psalms 22:18. Jesus' vesture was dipped in blood. The Saints' vestures were fine linen, white and clean. Theirs could not have been white if His was not stained with His own blood - blood of the King of Kings. "Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow," Isaiah 1:18.
Revelation 19:13 - "He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood ...the armies ...clothed in fine linen, white and clean ...And he hath on his vesture ...a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS."
PRINCIPLE - "They Followed Him"
The secret to discipleship is following. Jesus told Peter, "Follow me." He told Matthew, "Follow me." He told Philip, "Follow me." He told the rich young ruler to forsake all and "follow me." "If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me," Luke 9:23. He said, "My sheep... follow me." Peter said, "Ye should follow His steps." 144,000 chosen Jews will "follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth," Revelation 14:4. Do you want to see His glory? FOLLOW HIM!
Revelation 19:14 - "The armies which were in heaven followed him."
PROPHECY "He Will Smite The Nations With The Sword Of His Mouth"
Oh, the Word of God! Sharper than any two-edged Sword! No weapon formed against it can prosper. At Armageddon, Jesus will need no nuclear bombs, aircraft carriers, army tanks, or military equipment of any kind. The King of Kings will smite the nations with the Word of His mouth - the same Sword of the Spirit that is given to every believer. Every knee shall bow, and every tongue shall confess. His Word has all power in Heaven and earth. Speak it.
Revelation 19:15 - "Out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations."
•We must always be known as those who walked in love, truth, power, and freedom.
•The church must once again be the moral compass of our nation. Let us make it our mission to keep one hand on the cross and the other snatching the lost from the fire so the church will never slide into oblivion! We must keep pursuing the lost.
•We are ambassadors of Christ. If we are faithful to seek God at the altar, together we will see a harvest like never before. #HARVEST2018
