Dying to Self Before Entering Life

He better be prepared to die. You see this is a place of death before it's a place of life. If you came here you say you gave your life to Jesus Christ. I want you to know that there's a place that you can point to.

There's a time that you can remember and there's an experience that you can remember when you died. The word of came along the law of God slew you absolutely slew you were so convicted. And you were slain by the law.

It absolutely took away all your excuses and and all of your your own ideas. And how you can please God and your own righteousness and your own goodness, and there had to be a place that you died. You've got to die first before you can live and unless that gospel is preached.

That that you die to self. You died to self will you died to self eager. You died to self ambition if that's not being preached the gospel Is not being preached. I had another young man one time sit in my office.

The Danger of Hypocrisy in Christian Families

His father was a minister a preacher of the gospel and this young man almost broke my heart 17 years of age and he said to me if the God that is of Heaven is the God of my father. I don't want to serve him.

I see my father in the pulpit about I tell you he said he's another man at home. You see this man was a poor Reputation among those of his own house and he preached in the gospel. Became a hindrance to his own family coming to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.

God forbid. God forbid that in my life or in your life that we should become the very barrier that shuts our sons and daughters. Our brothers and sisters out of the kingdom of God if they make a choice to reject God.

Then let it be on their own heads. But let it be with a perfect knowledge of who God is. Let it be with a touch of heaven if they make that rejection. Imagine coming into your your children and and yes, they might be in rebellion.

And yes, they might have the world all over them. And yes, their attitudes might not be right, but imagine Speaking to them as the voice of God. What drew you to Christ. Was it condemnation or the promise of new life?

What was it that drew you? Was it the angry older brother or the thought of the father? Standing at the door waiting for you to come even in your ignorance so far away. What was it that drew you? I remember before I came to Christ the thought that so provoked my heart.

New Creation and the Promise of a New Life

Was not even so much about Calvary as wonderful as Calvary is but the thought that gripped me was that I could have a new life. Amazing. I remember this man that shared with me says if any man is in Christ He becomes a new creation.

God promises you not just eternity. But that you will be another man on this side of eternity and I remember how that I couldn't shake it. I Couldn't it wouldn't go away. It's stuck with me day in and day out.

I'd wake up thinking about it. I could be another man. I could be a new man. It's it sounded so impossible. I I had died around my own altars and my bones were very many and very dry. But somebody came and spoke to me on God's behalf.

Somebody who wasn't looking to gain something from me somebody was not looking for me to open my wallet and give to them. Somebody who was honest came into my house with no objective, but to gain my soul for the kingdom of God.

And thank God he did. We're called to make a difference. We're called to tear down strongholds.

Every Believer's Calling to Break Spiritual Strongholds

We're called to vanquish the plans of the devil. We're called to break the strongholds in the dominions of sin and death and hell and darkness and see God's Creation those that he loves set free into the glorious liberty of Jesus Christ.

This is the call that's on your life. It's not just for a select few. It's not just for the preachers or those that have had theological training or all these other wonderful things that prepare men and women.

For ministry, it's you and me the moment the Holy Ghost came upon you. You had a calling of God to claim your inheritance and to see the power of the devil broken and others brought into the inheritance Of God, this is the call of God on his church.

This is the call of God on your life. How does God glorify his name. He does it through people. He does it through those who are not afraid of the devil afraid of man afraid of calamity and people Who are walking in faith believing that God can do all things.

That is the man that is a woman who glorifies God on the face of the earth. Hallelujah. The Lord's going to bring his people into rest. By bringing divine order Into individual lives and into our homes.

Taking Authority Over Chaos, Fear, and the Enemy

Folks the devil has been unchallenged long enough. Folks it's time that this chaos in the Christian family and individual Christians has to stop For us for too long. He's allowed unchallenged to come and bring depression fear and anxiety.

He has come to try to destroy marriages. He's come to try to take away your children and destroy the destroyer. But God is rising now and he said now you wake up. Oh Zion. You wake up and you take authority now in Jesus name take authority in the name of Jesus Christ over all the power of the enemy God.

Refusing Another Night of Compromise and Sin

Let not the moon rise on another night of compromise and sin. That's got to be a prayer forever going to know the power of God in our midst. If you're ever going to know it individually as Christians.

You've got to say God stop this area of fruitlessness in my life and don't let the moon rise on one more night of sin. God give me the power to turn. Let not the Sun go down in another day of strife and discord in my home.

Mothers, you can pray this. Fathers, you can pray this. Husbands wives you can pray this God Almighty. Stop it. Let not the Sun go down on it. Stop the discord stop the strife in my home. Let not the moon rise on another night of rebellion and confusion in my children.

Oh. Move heaven and earth and bring my sons and daughters into their inheritance that is theirs in Christ move heaven and earth. Move it. Oh God, we have the power to do this. He said pray and say to the mountains be moved and it will move.

Commanded to be moved. Stand believing and you will have whatsoever you ask. Let not the Sun go down on another powerless day in my life. When I'm supposed to be a testimony of the grace of the Living God.

Making a Difference Through Daily Witness

Let not the Sun go down on another day of it. Let not the moon rise on another night of depression and regret Jesus Son of God make a difference in my life today. Let not the Sun go down on my drug-infested violent confused neighborhood without my life having made a difference to somebody.

God don't let the Sun go down tomorrow before I have touched the soil somewhere. Before you have reached out through me to some sick person and brought the loving touch of Almighty God into their life.

Don't let the Sun go down on self-consumption. Oh God, don't let the moon rise on another night of living for myself. Let not the moon rise without a testimony of praise to your faithfulness on my lips.

Let not the Sun go down without my heart saying Jesus you have been my supply. You've been my counselor my friend my defender my tower. You're my king my god we have the choice to get up and move to what God is speaking or we draw back and We say no, it can't be.

Believing God for Personal and Family Victory

I've made too many mistakes. My family is too far away from God or perhaps I have too little influence. Oh pastor. You don't understand how religious my family is. All God does he had a very religious? family.

He knows he understands. But he'll give you the strength and the grace. But you have to get up. You have to get into the battle. He's not going to come and just do it for you. Have your part is to believe him and get up and get into the battle.

Say God no more. I'm not letting the Sun go down on this thing any one more day. Today, I'm coming to an altar and I'm believing God you're going to deal with it. You're going to strike a death blow to it.

You're going to burn it in the fire of your presence. You're going to lift me out of depression. You're going to lift me out of Despondency. You're going to lift me out of all my struggles. God you're going to give me hope again.

You're going to give me victory.
