In the Word #11 — Milton Green

Encountering Jesus and the Word Brings Freedom

Let me tell you something. Do you remember when you first came in here and you sizing everyone up around you? You know, all of a sudden when you get extended around Jesus and around the Word, you know, that becomes all of a sudden unimportant.

It seems like something's not talking to you that was talking to you when you first came in here. Now, I told you at the very beginning that the Word is going to be setting you free and giving you a freedom.

Like you, and I told you before, this day finishes. Many, many, many of you are going to have a freedom since you haven't known since day one. Now, how many here knows a lightness is coming in your life, a freedom is coming in your life?

How many here have been healed, that the Lord has healed you right here? Just hold up your hand there, have healed you or something. Well, there's a few. A hundred? And He sent His Word to heal you. And boy, I'll tell you what, there's no one going to get any glory for it, are there?

Now, let me tell you something. One of the easiest things for me to do to start out these seminars and start with healing, I would like, and I used to do this. I would start right out in healing right there.

And there was so much opposition to it, it'd take another 24 hours to get back into the thing. It just comes against it. And so I had to change the seminar to come back to deal with the enemy, to deal with that you could be deceived, that a person may not, after all, know it all, so they can come to the place where they hear the Word.

And so they teach them to see healing. Because many, because of their traditions and things being taught, it's not in the Bible, they would reject it. They haven't learned what talks to them to tell them to reject something before they look at the truth.

Examine the truth or reject the truth before you examine it in the Word. You do not have to be afraid to examine something right here. I don't care who's talking or who's speaking. I'm telling you, you don't have to be afraid.

When they start saying something different than what the Bible says, you can always get up and leave. You don't have to spit out the sticks, you know that? Persuasive argument's not supposed to move you.

Only Jesus is supposed to. You don't receive anything that the Lord doesn't confirm to your heart. Amen? Well, now, we're going to be starting with the healing this morning, and I kind of wish it was behind us, but I'm going to try to cover it to where that you'll just, beside just the actual thing of praying and application, which we're not getting to do in this thing.

Coordinating the Body of Christ Around the Word

I'll tell you, shepherd, something. Brother, I'm telling you, things are coming together, particularly as shepherds and the people that surround you and that really walk with you and everything, that we can have a thing to where we can help you.

And it's not going to be somebody's things. It's just going to be coordinating the body of Christ just to help you. You hear? And these things are coming together. So you just preach the Word because the Lord is working out some things there.

And it's not going to be anybody's thing. Not going to center around any man. It's not going to center around any teaching. It's going to be the Word. You're going to be free. In a short time, we're going to be learning some things from you.

We're going to be learning from each other. Isn't that right? That's right. Now, I want to tell you what's been happening. We're waking up from a nightmare. And if that's not settled in its spirit, it will be before the day's over.

And we've been asleep. The church has become fleshly and worldly. The church today is doing spiritual things with a carnal mind and worldly methods. And just like the boastful world, we boast in ourselves and our works.

We magnify men. We magnify numbers. Magnify church. Magnify buildings. Magnify denomination. There's something bad wrong with that, folks. It's the wrong fruit. You don't magnify these things. Now, we're going to look at healing.

Healing, Doctors, and the Elders of the Church

And you know, in James 5, 14 and 15, it says, now, we're not going to turn there yet. James 5, it says, anyone who's sick, and it says, let him call for the doctor. And the church, it called for the elders in the church.

Now, I don't have anything against doctors. Matter of fact, there's a lot of doctors that daily walk with Jesus. Luke wasn't a total loss. Of course, he always had his satchel ready in case God couldn't come through.

But I don't have anything against carpet cleaners either. But we're talking about spiritual things, not natural things. Doctors aren't God either. No doctor or no medication, any good doctor, I tell you, can heal no one.

They cause things in your body that where the Lord can do the healing. And they'll be the first to tell you that. Well, and if you ever see the Scripture where God heals through doctors, just kind of, let me just kind of read that sometime.

Because I think that comes from up here instead of here. So, any doctor that doesn't think he's God is not going to be offended by what I just said. Now, if you think he's God, you've got a problem. Now, if Lord Jesus wanted his body sick, what'd he put James 5, 14 and 15 in the Bible for?

Well, let me ask you something else. If it's the Lord's will for you to be sick, what do you go to doctors for and work against God's will? If it's God's will for you to be sick, what do you take medicine for and work against God's will?

We'll do a little logic here before we get started in Scripture. We put a lot of theology in logic. We see healing abuse and merchandise by some folks. The Word of God's always been peddled ever since it was the Word of God.

But we're unwilling to come over here and just line up with the Word. We're not supposed to have our eyes on something that's abused. That's up to God to abuse it. But we have our eyes on the Lord Jesus Christ.

So, God does heal in both covenants. And I'll tell you something. God healed me. And I've got corn in my crib. And I want to tell you something. I didn't have any problem showing you this before I started right here.

I've been actually healed when I knew I was dying. And I watch people healed all the time. But maybe some shepherd here or some layman. The Lord speaks through to me to where I can have a better understanding about something like this.

See, we don't have to. See, I don't have to. I'm not responsible to know everything. Only Jesus knows everything. Isn't that right? Do you have to know everything? Isn't that wonderful? To not have to know everything?

If you don't know it, you don't know. Either you know it or you don't know. I don't know. I'm just going to talk about what I know. All right. If you have your Bibles. Turn to Psalms 103, please. And we'll start in the old covenant.

And I want to go through this quickly. Because I'm going to tell you what's the truth. The longer we go today, the better it'll get. I mean, just tighten up your belt. Because we're going to plow on through here.

Well, my buddy showed back up. Brother, don't you ever get away from this thing without me getting to meet you. I want to see what you look like. I want to see the Jesus in you. Okay. Okay. In Psalms 103, this is a very encouraging thing to a dying man.

In verse 2 and 3. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget none of his benefits, who pardons all your what? Well, isn't that a minute interesting thing? I want you to know it's when you know there's healing, that how it just kind of drops in dealing with sin first.

You going to kind of watch this as we go through? I've got some things to say about that later. You know, when there's no sin and no discernment, nothing. You don't have to deal with these things. You're already there.

You're already rich, increased in goods. He heals. Here's his benefits. He pardons all your negligence, and he heals all, all, all, all, all, all, all, all, all, all, all your diseases. Now, it's going to be playing with you all night long tonight.

All your diseases. Well, now, that's a pretty encouraging thing for a dying man. He come and look this. He heals all, all your diseases. If I can read right there, I know at some point in time that God heals all diseases, or I need to cut that out.

And so I'm going to just receive it. So I'd be interested to know if it's healing right now, today. And that's where we're headed. But we're going to start back in the old covenant. Please turn back to Exodus 15, please.

This won't take long. Exodus 15. Lord, I just praise you for your grace. I praise you, Lord, and ask and receive anointing of your word. We ask for liberty and freedom in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

We submit to your word, receive your word in Jesus' name. Praise you, Lord. Total freedom and liberty. All right. First, I want to just look up there in verse 22, just so we'll see where we are. Moses led Israel from the what? Red Sea.

So they just crossed the Red Sea. And then Moses said in verse 26, and he said, If, if, if, if, if, do you know that things are so perverted in the church today, if you obey the word, it's called works in some place.

Did you realize that? It's called works if you obey God. I'm telling you, a covenant is not to analyze. A covenant is walking to be a doer of the word. Doer, that's what it says from front to back. You better be a doer.

That's where the blessings are. So I want you to know that when you're led by the spirit of God, you are a doer of the word. That is grace, and you're under grace. Now, why should he, why should obeying a covenant be any different than obeying a covenant where it's old covenant and new covenant?

That's when two become one. Right now, verse 26, and he said, If, if, if, you're going to give earnest heed to my word, to the word, to the word, to the word of God, to his voice of the Lord your God, and do what is what?

Right in whose sight? You know what that's saying? Do righteousness. Is he saying any less today? Where'd that come from that he's saying any less today? He's not saying any less today. And you give ear to his commandments.

Those that love me, the ones that love Jesus, he said obey his commandments. And you keep all, all his statues, he means for you to keep them, to do them. And then he says, if you will, I will. That's what covenant is.

You do this, I'll do this. And then when you're doing this, he said, he told them, I'll put none. You know what none means? Not any. Isn't it wonderful that you lead three million people across the desert, and removed all the diseases, and none stumbled?

Isn't it? Isn't it something? I mean, God's something, isn't he? He's more something than the devil, isn't he? I'll put none of the diseases on you which I put upon the world, Egyptian, for I, the Lord, am your what?

Is he the same yesterday, today, and forever? Sure he is. When he changed. Turn to Deuteronomy 7, please. That's really encouraging to a dying man right there. Deuteronomy 7. Deuteronomy 7. All right, here, I'm telling you, if you're in covenant, old covenant, if you are in new covenant, if you're covenant with God, I want you to know you are wholly separated people.

You don't walk, talk, and act like the world. Is that plain? Now, let's just look at just a little of it right there in verse 6. For you, now this is a covenant people, are what kind of people? You're holy people.

And the Lord your God, the Lord has what? He always chooses who's going to be in covenant. He's chosen you to be a people for his what? Own possession out of all the people who are on the face of the earth.

I'm going to throw in 7. The Lord did not set his love on you nor choose you because you had big numbers. For you are the fewest of all peoples. Few there be that go up there. Now, verse 12. Then it shall come about because you listen.

First, you listen to the word. Have we heard that before? Have we been reading that all over the New Testament? About a foolish man and a prudent man? You're not seeing anything? Listen. You listen to these words.

And then, number 2, put a little 2 there. You keep in what? Do the will of God. That's what we've been seeing over and over and over and over. I hear them say analyze it and speculate about it and grade God, condemn God.

Because you keep in doing that the Lord your God. Number 3. If you do this, if you listen to the word and you do the word, then I'm going to keep with you the covenant. That is exactly what the Lord is saying over in the new covenant.

And his loving kindness. You know what loving kindness is? It's a covenant love. It's a God kind of love. That he gives to those who walk in his covenant. It's supernatural love. And it's a supernatural love that we become partakers of.

That's the grace. That's the power of the Lord that his love flows through us. A love we can't receive except from him. So, is it talking about covenant here, folks? You will keep with you his covenant.

Now, covenant is to keep. And his loving kindness which he swore to your forefathers. Now, the powers of darkness want to hide that. And they'd rather you get your little test papers out and test God out.

And kind of pick through. Instead of walking in it. And see, when you don't walk in it, you don't have any power over the powers of darkness. And they know it. That's the reason they bring all these other words as we saw in the power of the word.

To steal the word from you. And they're powerless. And you can't. Now, what did the Lord say in Hebrews about the Lord Jesus? He said, God has set him at his right hand. Waiting, waiting, waiting. He's still there.

Just waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting. That's a key word. And the next word is key. Until, until, until, until, until. These enemies are made of footstool by his feet. By the body. Well, you have to wait for Jesus to do it.

You already got all the weapons. He's already done it. Get in on it. Amen? He's ahead. We're the arms. Go do it. Bind them up. Sack them up in Jesus' name. Everything Jesus has, we have. In covenant because we're one in the name of Jesus.

If you got the worries of the world. If afflictions get you. Persecutions. The pleasures of this life. And the worries about other things. Man, that's another life. That's not the spiritual life in Christ.

Amen? Well, I'd say, let's go on. Verse 15. You got your big pencil ready. And the Lord. You hear the word. Do the word. Keep the covenant. Here's what in verse 15. The next thing. And the Lord will remove from you all, all, all, all, all, all, all, all, all sickness.

Is he putting this in here teasing folks? I can't hear you this morning. Okay. And the Lord will remove all sickness and he'll not put on you any, any, any, any, any means none. Don't put any of them.

He's not going to put any of the harmful diseases of Egypt, the world, which you have known. He'll lay them on all who want. The ones that hate you. The world hates you. Harlots hate you. Adulterers hate you.

The flesh hates you. They get it. When did it change? Boy, isn't this real complicated? Boy, I mean, ever learning, never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Just get your theology from a man.

Just have your eyes on a man. Get your eyes on something. Theology. Get your eyes on something besides the Lord. Well, it'll get better here in just a minute. Turn to Deuteronomy 28. We're still going to look at this covenant.

Deuteronomy 28. Now, I want you to know that God has had an Israel. There's been an Israel, a God, since Exodus. And I want you to know that these people are standing before him to make covenant. Now, the covenant, incidentally, is on those tapes.

The church today is sleeping in bodies. That's where I started in the covenant. They're saying, of course, I'm not sharing this thing because the Lord has led me not to. But there's some very, very important things to know about covenant.

But they're standing before God to make covenant. Now, that's when two become one. Two or more become one. And they stood there, the tribes, the chief, the elders and officers, and that to enter in covenant with the Lord of God and into an oath.

A covenant is an oath. All right, now, if you see before. Now, I want you to look at me so you see this because you're going to miss this if you don't. Now, when anyone is walking in this world, I want you to know they're cursed because the powers of darkness is getting more in their deceit and darkness.

They're putting more and loading up more and more and more. Their death is working in them all the time. They're just taking over more areas and areas and areas of life. You notice when folks have problems, they don't generally get worse.

They get, I mean, better. They get worse because we turn to everything. And it's what the church does today, you know. The church, you know, if someone has these problems or, you know, and everything, let's kick out the wounded.

Send them over there to the nuthouse. Jesus can't help you. Of course, when you get bad enough, hey, the world can put you in a jail because, after all, God can't do anything. And they're all around us.

Brother pastor, I'm going to tell you what. I'll tell you what, if you're receiving this word, your most joyful time, all these hurting people, and this burden that's been loaded up on you, you're going to be reaching across that desk to hurting people right there, and you're going to be touching them and saying, Boo, devil, in Jesus' name, and watching them transform right in front of your eyes.

Not only are you going to do it, your whole congregation is going to be doing it because they're going to be sanctified. Now, when you walk through this world, you are cursed. There's no hedge. You've got an enemy in this world that controls this world.

He's stronger. People walk in the flesh. They're led by the alchemy and the puppets. They become puppets, and they get more and more ground, more and more sick, and they use them. They use them, and they use them against other people.

They control them, and they don't even know it. They're cursed. Now, when you come to make a covenant, Old Covenant or New Covenant, you take God Almighty. That's not like man making covenant with one another.

When you make covenant with God, you make covenant with someone stronger than all the powers that are. So then you make a covenant. You take an oath, I will if you will. That's what covenant is. You take an oath that you're going to walk right there.

When you take this oath and you enter in, a hedge comes around you. They have been a land to possess since God made covenant with Abraham. And he told him, and Abraham said, How shall I know that I can possess the land?

And God just turned around, because you and me are fixing to make covenant, and you always triumph when I'm with you. Do you understand that when God's with you that you always triumph? Of course, the world don't say foolish things.

They can't. The flesh don't say it. But now when you enter into covenant, that you take an oath, you're walking in it. So when you walk in it and everything, and then when you choose in your heart to be drawn away, and we'll see quickly, we're going to see how the demons, right here, right there in Deuteronomy, after they made the blessed covenant, show them how demons will draw them away from the covenant.

And he said, What do you do? And you let they draw your heart, your hearts, with all your heart, not me plus demons and idols of the world. And then when you do that, you've got blessings when you walk.

All these things. We've been looking at it. It's good to be healed, not having sickness, and all these things working with you. He said no sickness is going to be on him, didn't he? Did I say that, or did the Bible say it?

Okay, all right. And so he walked in covenant. You walk in covenant, your blessings are on you. That means God. These blessings overtake you. You can't get away from them. You bless everything you put your hands to.

You're blessed coming and going. Now, the opposite of that is when you let your heart go somewhere besides loving the Lord with all your heart, and they draw you away to get you somewhere else. The breach comes down, and then the powers of darkness are turned loose on you.

This is a curse. This is what Deuteronomy 28 is, blessings and curses. Folks, it's still around. There's always blessings and curses in covenant. And so the breach comes down, and here they come because you've broken an oath.

You've broken your word. Now, isn't it amazing how people would be offended with curses when these curses right here in 28 are all over the church today? And you know something? These curses, some of these curses are called blessings.

Can you imagine that? They're called blessings. God don't call them blessings. Now, let's begin. In chapter 27, they had spoken curses on himself if he don't obey the word of God, and that is part of the oath.

And then we start there. Let's look at the blessing, verse 21. Now, it shall, I mean, 28, verse 1. Now, it should be if, if, if, if. I want you to circle these scriptures right here. If is a condition.

I want you to know that if is whether a person walks in covenant or not. You don't say some words and you and Satan go out and do your things and get all the blessings of God. Is that clear? All right, now.

It should be if, if, if you will diligently obey the Lord. That's what he says from Genesis to Revelation. Diligently obey the Lord your God, being careful to do all, all, all, all, all, all his commandments, which I command you today, the Lord your God.

See, it's I will if you will. I will if you will. When you start seeing that in the word, you start seeing old covenant, you start seeing new covenant. If you go ahead and do these things, I'm going to do this.

If you bear fruit, if you bear much fruit, I'm going to do everything you ask me I'm going to do. I will do this, you do this, and I'm going to do this. You do this, I'm going to do this. You do this, and if you don't do this, you're not going to hear from me.

You pray with the wrong motives. That's what it says in new covenant, what it's saying right here. Amen? All right, now, you do all these things which I command you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth.

Verse 2, and all these blessings are going to come upon you, and they what? They're going to overtake you, you can't get away from it. If, if, if, if, if, the blessings that come on you, if, if, if, if, you'll obey the Lord your God.

You know what, somebody, you read that somebody and say, he's talking about works when you obey God. Can you believe that? What do you, what do you need the Bible for if all you have to do is say some words?

Where'd that come from? Verse 6, blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out. This is the blessings for those who walk in and come in. Blessed coming and going. Verse, well, let's just look there in verse 7.

The Lord will cause your enemies who rise up against you to be defeated before you. They shall come against you one way, and they're going to flee seven different ways. Now, that's a blessings. That's a blessings.

Now, in verse 9, the Lord in this covenant, walking in covenant, is going to establish you. Is that what he said in 1 Peter 5? He's going to perfect you and establish you. Amen. For those walking in covenant, absolutely.

That's what God does. He's going to establish you as what kind of people? Holy people. That's what you saw in 1 Peter 5. It's resisting the devil in the flesh and suffering in it. Isn't that right? Here's a holy people to himself as he swore to you, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, you will keep the commandments of the Lord and walk, walk, walk, walk, walk, walk, walk in his ways, he's going to establish you as a holy people.

Is that right? Is that exactly what we read in 1 Peter? Absolutely. Now, verse 15. We, uh, jump over here. Now, verse 15, there's where the blessings end. Because this, he tells you what's going to happen to you if you don't walk in covenant.

Where'd this thing come from? That you receive grace to go do what the devil says. From the devil. Verse 15. But it shall come about if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, you will not obey the Lord your God.

You will not obey his word. You will not obey his commandments. You will not walk in covenant if you'll not to observe to do all, all his commandments of his statutes, which I charge you today, that all these curses shall go to what?

When it says come upon you, curses come upon you. May I just go ahead and tell you, that's them. They're going to come upon you and they're going to overtake you because the hedge comes down. The hedge comes down when you're not fruitful and you are not fruitful if you're not obeying the word of God.

Is that clear? When you're not, and that's exactly, and so here the tree cutters come. Now let's go over and look in, well, verse 19. We watch things change. Cursed shall you be when you come in. Cursed shall you be when you go out.

Instead of blessed coming and going, you're cursed coming and going. And people don't even know when they're cursed. Because they've been programmed to hang in there, keep a stiff upper lip, let the rough end drag.

Don't let anybody know I'm coming apart inside. I've got it all put together in my pride. You've been programmed with all your red pieces of steel and all your threads and everything, that you're somebody, that you're something.

You've already writhed. You're increased in goods. You've got wood and you've got stone. You've got silver. You've got gold. You've got the eyes of the world. And they've built you, used these things to build pride in you.

And you're zero with the realm of it. That's deception. Okay. You're cursed coming and going. Now, I want you to watch and see. It's not a ban the Lord's sin. I don't want to run that by you too fast.

It's not a ban the Lord's sin. Well, then, when you're sinning, is that when the enemy has ground to work in you? Well, we know that demons bring sickness. When did they become a blessing? Sin is where demons work.

That's where they get their ground. Now, I want you to keep that in mind because right now you're talking about the curses. Are we in the curses part right here? Look in verse 22. This is the ones who do not keep the commandments and walk in his ways.

The Lord's going to smite you with consumption and with what? See right here, God calls that curse. Something got perverted and turned around. It's called a blessing. Let me tell you something, folks, about fever.

You'll see later on that Jesus addressed the fever as a personality. You'll just be amazed what you can do. Just take your hand and remove the fever. You're not going to remove it while you're being blessed with it, though, are you?

The Lord will smite you with consumption, with fever, with inflammation, with fiery heat, with a sword, and with a blight, with mildew, and they shall pursue you until you perish. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I bind up all heresy, unbelief, all false doctrine.

In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, all legalism. In Jesus' name, all doubt and unbelief. You're bound, sealed with the blood. You cannot minister right now in Jesus' name. Ever, ever hinder us to this word right here.

Ever hinder us to the thoughts right now. It's stopped right now in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Let's go on to verse 23. Here's curses. And the heaven, 23, over your head shall be bronze. That means your prayers are not going to, and the earth which is under you is iron.

Judgment. Cursed. 25. Now look here. The Lord will cause you to be defeated before your enemies. You shall go out one way against them, but you shall flee seven ways before them. A while ago, the enemy was going seven ways.

Is that correct? You know what I've heard Jack Taylor say? It only takes one weak, anemic demon to bind up the average church. Why not? They don't believe in them. So instead of the demons fleeing seven ways, one demon chases a thousand seven different ways.

That's the difference in blessings and curses. But you shall flee seven ways before them, and you shall be a what? You're going to be an example of terror to all the kings of the world. Verse 27. Now are we talking about sickness?

Being in old government? And the Lord will smite you with the bowls of Egypt, and with what? Tumors. Well, there they are. Isn't that something? How'd tumors get there? Tumors are not a blessing. Tumors are a curse.

Now, if you have a tumor, don't be offended. It's not a blessing. Get rid of it in Jesus' name. While we're trying to make somebody comfortable in their flesh with a tumor, something has killed them. That's where we live with that.

You can't minister to the Spirit and minister to this carton. We're talking to the inner man, not this part. Flesh always gets upset. That's when you have to add water to it. This is good news, somebody's tumor.

Do you know it? Sure it is. Find out it's not a blessing. The Lord will smite you with the bowls of Egypt, and with tumors, with a scalp, and an itch from which you cannot be healed. And then here's a curse.

It's 29. You shall grope at noon. You're not groping. You're trying to find your way spiritually. Groping at noon is the light part of the day. You can't find the way. That's a curse. The powers of darkness are on you.

As a blind man gropes in darkness, you shall not prosper in your ways. You're going to just be oppressed and robbed, continuing, and there's going to be no one to save you because you haven't got a part to stand against them.

That's what the thief does. I mean you're oppressed. The thief comes to rob, steal relationships, to work against you, to hinder you, and everything that you do. You're cursed in everything you do. And you're programmed with them.

Hang in there. Hang in there. Don't let them know. Hide all this that I'm tearing you apart inside. Hang in there with your pride demon and pride flesh. Don't let anybody know that you're something and you hadn't really got it.

So when a person decides his back's up against the wall and he isn't in charge, he's not Lord after all, that's when he gets saved. All right, now. 45. So all these curses shall come upon you and they're going to what?

There they are. That's them. They pursue you. What's it saying, John? Walk in the light. Is you having the light? Because darkness is there to what? To overtake you. You better walk in the light. You better walk in the Word.

But darkness is right there to overtake you. And these curses shall come on you and they're going to pursue you and they're going to overtake you until you're what? Destroyed because you would not obey the Lord your God but keeping His commandments and His statutes which you bear.

You wouldn't walk in covenant. When did that change? Now, I throwed some extra ones in there that didn't have to do with healing because I didn't want to have to come back later on. I was going to just pick out the things, the curses and healings and the blessings and so forth.

But now, here's where I was going to all the time. Now, here is we're still in the curses for the rest of the chapter of 28. Now, I'm going to continue right here. And if you look in 29, just pull over to 29 verse 1, you see that we're looking at a covenant.

These are words of the what? Covenant which the Lord commanded Moses to what? To make with the sons of Israel and the land of Israel besides the covenant which He made. So, you see, you are looking at a covenant.

You are and you're going to see why as we're dealing with this healing. Now, look at me. You're going to see why. You said, well, I wonder why somebody else can't see it. Honey, while you've been looking at them, their eyes have been closed.

You've been trusting men instead of Jesus. And, well, you're going to see why the eyes are closed. You quit worrying about why somebody else can't see it and see why you hadn't seen it. You're responsible for you.

See, that shows where your heart was. Now, so we're looking at a covenant. Is that right? You don't have any problem with that. Now, the covenant is not something to go tease somebody with. God doesn't come to tease you with it, does He?

All right, let's back up 58. 28 and 58. If you're not careful to observe all the words of this law and observe them, which are written in this book, to fear this honored and awesome name, the Lord your God.

God hasn't changed. You have to learn the fear of the Lord. And you'll not learn the fear of the Lord if you don't know something about Him. You'll not fear Him without revelation. If you learn to fear Him and you're careful to observe, then the Lord, if you're not careful to observe these words, Now, look here.
