Revival Conference 2007 - Keith Daniel - Part 2 — Keith Daniel

The devil, Satan, our only enemy, away by the risen resurrected power of Christ from this place. Surround us with the angels of God and let them do battle with swords drawn to do battle with the powers of darkness that would hurt us.

Rude upon us with the Holy Ghost, come rend the heavens and come down, God, in mercy. Stand beside me and let me be thy mouthpiece through which thy voice can be heard and speak, Lord, to every single soul.

In a way they'll never recover. Now, no man can do that. No man dares be so presumptuous as to believe that God would do it for him apart from that thou hast promised. If two or three of you agree touching anything, that's the will of the Father in my name it shall be done.

In the name of Jesus Christ, in the name of Jesus the Christ, we all unitedly agree and ask these things of our Father in heaven. Amen. Tonight I would like to speak on the single greatest tragedy this world faces today.

The Danger of Compromising Christianity

The single greatest tragedy this world faces today. Compromising Christianity. Compromising Christianity. And oh, that every Christian in this building would cry from their inner being right now at the outset of the sermon, Search me, search me, oh God, and know my heart.

Try me, try me, and know my thoughts, and see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me, lead me in the way everlasting. Lead me in the way everlasting. Psalm 139 verse 23 and 24. Search me and know my heart.

For if our heart, if our heart condemn us, if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart. And knoweth all things. 1 John 3 verse 20. Oh Christian, if your heart condemns your life, if your heart condemns your life, then I implore you, I implore you tonight, tonight to sow to yourselves in righteousness.

Sow to yourselves in righteousness. Reap in mercy. Reap in mercy. Break up, break up your fallow ground. For it is time to seek the Lord. Till he come, till he come and rain righteousness upon you. Hosea 10 verse 12.

Sow to yourselves in righteousness. Tonight, in mercy, do what God requires of you. Break up your fallow ground. Break up your fallow ground. That hardened crust, that hardened crust that summer has formed over the fertile soil of your heart, tragically enabling you to tolerate and to accept a life of shameful compromise.

Break up your fallow ground. Oh, I believe the fallow ground, that fallow ground, that hardened crust will break up in moments here tonight, but only if you, only if you carefully, carefully and prayerfully expose your heart, expose your heart tonight to the unadulterated, uncompromising standard of this holy book once again.

For it is not my word like as a fire, saith the Lord, and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces. Jeremiah 23 verse 29. For the word of God is quick and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and narrow, and is a discerner, it is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Hebrews 4 verse 12. Come Christian, come Christian, expose your heart carefully, carefully and prayerfully here tonight to what this holy book declares, to what this holy book declares when a Christian, when a Christian lives in a continual state of shameful compromise, to what this holy book declares when a Christian lives in a continual state of shameful compromise, to what this holy book declares when a Christian continually fails God, continually fails God firstly, firstly with his eyes, when a Christian continually fails God with his eyes.

David's Eyes and the First Look of Temptation

When does a Christian fail God with his eyes according to this book? In 2 Samuel 11 verse 1 we read that Israel, Israel went to war. Israel went to war but David tarried still at Jerusalem. And it came to pass in the even tide that David arose from his bed and walked upon the roof of the king's house.

And from the roof he saw a woman, a woman washing herself. And the woman was very beautiful to look upon. And David sent and inquired after the woman. Now beloved, you may believe that David later tragically went on to commit adultery with her.

You may believe that David later tragically went on to commit adultery with her. But Jesus said in Matthew 5 verse 28,. Whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already.

In his heart that first look, that first look was not David's fault. But the second was, the second was in this world, in this world the devil will place many things before us that we did not choose or want to behold.

But it is our choice if we look again. It is our choice if we keep on looking. And Galatians 5 verse 9 warns that a little leaven, leaveneth the whole lump. That's all the devil needs David. It's all the devil wants David, just a little leaven, leaveneth the whole lump.
