I am deeply grateful to God for this
privilege of being here tonight, and I do
thank our dear brother Don, and all he
does and means for us and for so
many, for the extension of God's kingdom and
the glory of Jesus' name.
It's a blessing to know him.
Thank you.
I'm honored tonight in a peculiar way in
that most of the men who brought me
to America are in this meeting, apart from
one or two, and the first man was
Harold Vaughan.
Now, Harold Vaughan, I believe, spoke.
He was the first one to bring me
to America.
And I had been in Canada extensively, but
somehow Harold was the one who got me
here to your country many years ago now.
And it was lovely to know he was
going to be on the program.
Then Denny Keniston, the charity mission work, he's
also here.
He gave me many, many pulpits and spread
the messages I brought in such weakness.
In love for God's kingdom, he spread the
messages very widely, and I thank God for
him.
And then, after Denny, there was Rolf Satera.
I believe he's here also.
I shook his hand just now, and it
was just lovely to see him.
Him and Nancy Wells and how they organized
her first HeartCry for Revival conference with Mr.
Stephen Alford there, and they somehow trusted me
to be the other speaker.
And I was very, very humbled to stand
with the great, godly Stephen Alford before he
died in one of the last moments he
ever spoke publicly anyway.
But it was lovely to see Mr. Satera
here also.
And then there is Mr. Gofford, who's not
here tonight, but we must make a plan
next year.
Or somewhere where you want to get all
these men together, please.
It would be lovely to have them all,
everyone that brought me to your country.
And then, of course, Brother Don, who for
a number of years now has kept the
doors open of America, and I don't do
anything, just arrive and all is done of
all the churches where there's invitations across this
country to preach, for ten weeks of preaching
annually like this.
So thank you, and thank the dear Lord
that these dear men and their godly wives
can be here tonight.
Finally, to thank Greg Gordon.
Is he Gordon, Greg, or Greg Gordon?
I was so scared there for a moment.
Dear Greg Gordon is a young man and
a man who has vision like very few
in a whole lifetime.
And he has somehow in a remarkable way
got a website that has been honored by
God in a very unusual way across the
whole world.
And the conservative-minded people of God's kingdom,
those who want no compromise, no matter what
the rest of the church does, are deeply
grateful to God for the messages this dear
man has somehow made available on one site
in such a very godly way.
And I have been so blessed that the
dear man, for some reason, though I never
met him in my life, did put my
messages on alongside of some of the names
that I dare not even think my messages
could be on the same website.
But when I've looked at how many people
across the world are downloading the messages, I've
realized God is with this man and his
vision in a very remarkable way.
So this is his first convention that he
just stepped out in faith.
As a 26-year-old man, you just
don't hold conventions like this.
But he did.
And we bless God for him.
We thank God for the vision he has.
And we hope that as he stays low
at the feet of Jesus, the Lord will
really use him mightily and more and more
mightily as God needs him, enables him, and
unsanitizes his ministry.
So thank you very, very much, dear brother.
Though I've never met you, your heart bear
hope someway.
Much prayer goes up for you, young man.
And we long to see great things in
this world for Jesus' kingdom through you, beyond
this meeting, these meetings.
Can we bow for a moment of prayer,
please?
And I do hope this loudspeaker's been put
up a bit, because last night I sat
there and I didn't hear everything.
So I'm sure there are others that needed
it to be much louder than last night.
Forgive me for telling you what to do,
but I have one fear that I have
in life.
I only have one fear.
That someone could walk out of a meeting
I preached at the same that they came
in.
And because of that fear, I'm daring to
hope you're not going to be offended by
asking you to please put this loud enough
not to offend, but so loud that no
one could fall asleep.
Can we bow before our God, the Creator,
the Savior, and the coming Judge?
Can we all humbly bow before Jesus Christ,
our High Priest, that ever liveth to make
indecision for us?
Our Father, we thank Thee above everything for
Jesus.
Our Savior, we bless Thee that the Holy
Spirit shall not speak of Himself.
His whole work is to glorify Christ, to
conform us into the image of Jesus Christ,
to draw us to Christ and to exalt
Christ's name through us.
We bless Thee for our Savior, for His
blood, for His risen resurrected power, and that
He lives in us.
Christ in you, the hope of glory.
We bless Thee, dear God, for this book
that Thou hast in mercy given to man.
We ask Thee, for without Thee we can
do nothing.
We are nothing.
That's why Thou dost carefully choose the base
things of the world, the weak things of
the world, the despised things, those things that
are despised, that no flesh can glory in
Thy presence.
Thou wilt never present Thyself where a man
touches the glory or wants it.
Now we are okay, deeply conscious, without Thee
we can do nothing.
Nothing.
And so all of us look up to
Thee, our expectations in Thee and Thee only.
The letter killeth, but the Spirit giveth life.
Come, give life to Thy Word.
Thou hast promised Thou dost honor Thy Word
above all things.
Thou dost honor Thy Word above all things,
and because of that promise we all come
to Thee tonight and ask Thee, honor it,
honor it, that which Thou dost seek for
men to honor above all things, honor it
tonight, though it comes through the weakest, basest,
and at its best most unprofitable servant.
Thou dost not need to remind me of
that, Father.
Please don't have to.
Come, wash me in the blood of God,
the Son, the blood of Jesus Christ that
cleanseth us from all sin.
Without the blood I have nothing to show
Thee as to why Thou couldst possibly use
me, for there is nothing good in me.
Please, God, wash me in the blood that
I might be a vessel of meat for
the Master's use.
Fill me with the Holy Spirit, anoint and
unsanitize me, and take Thy Word and give
it life, and life indeed.
Come to the hardest heart and break it.
Come to the proudest heart and break it.
Come to the most closed heart and open
it.
Shock each one that thinks they can resist
God.
Come visit us.
Rebuke 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.
He so presumes us 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 single greatest tragedy this world faces today.
Compromising Christianity.
And all that every Christian in this building
would cry from their inner being right now
at the outset of the sermon, Search me.
Search me, O God.
And know my heart.
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.
Psalm 139, verse 23 and 24.
Search me, O God.
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.
O 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.
Break up.
Break up your fallow ground.
For it is time to seek the Lord.
Till he come.
Till he come and lay righteousness upon you.
Whom he attendeth well.
Sow to yourselves in righteousness.
Tonight.
Reap in mercy.
Do what God requires of you.
Break up your fallow ground.
That hardened crust.
That summer has formed over the fertile soil
of your heart.
Tragically enabling you.
To tolerate.
And to accept.
The life of shameful compromise.
Break up your fallow ground.
But how, you may ask.
For 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 marrow.
And as a discerner.
It is a discern of the thoughts and
intents of the heart.
Hebrews 4 verse 12.
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.
Firstly.
With his eyes.
When a Christian continually fails God.
With his eyes.
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.
But.
David.
Carried still at Jerusalem.
And it came to pass in the even
tide that David arose from off his bed.
And walked upon the roof of the king's
house.
And from the roof.
He saw.
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.
That 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.
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.
In James chapter 1 verse 14.
We read that every man is tempted.
Every man is tempted.
When he is drawn away.
When he is drawn away of his own
lust.
And enticed.
Enticed.
Then when lust hath conceived.
When lust hath conceived it bringeth forth sin.
Temptation is not sin.
But the second look is brother.
The second look is sister.
Thou shalt not commit adultery.
Exodus 20 verse 14.
Thou shalt not commit adultery.
But this verse in God's 10 commandments.
Is strangely linked with verse 17.
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house.
But wait it doesn't end there.
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife.
Also David.
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife.
Also David.
This holy book condemns men.
Having eyes full of adultery.
And that cannot cease from sin.
This holy book condemns men.
Having eyes full of adultery.
Full of adultery.
And that cannot cease from sin.
2 Peter 2 verse 14.
But oh when a Christian.
When a Christian.
Continually fails God with his eyes.
That is tragic.
I made a covenant with mine eyes.
Why then should I think upon a maid?
Why then should I look upon a young
woman?
Job 31 verse 1.
I as a married man.
Came to a place where I made a
covenant with mine eyes.
Not to look the second look.
At what I know the devil will continually
place before me in his life.
Like young Daniel.
Who purposed in his heart.
That he would not defile himself.
With the king's meat.
He came to a calculated moment.
A calculated choice.
A covenant.
That he would not defile himself in God's
eyes.
By going against the known will of God.
The commandments of God.
And become defiled in the sight of God.
He purposed.
In his heart.
That he would not defile himself.
So I.
I purposed in my heart.
I came to a decisive moment.
A moment in life where I made a
calculated decision.
I made a covenant with mine eyes.
Not to become defiled.
In God's sight.
By what I allow my eyes to look
at.
There was a moment.
A calculated covenant moment.
With his eyes.
In Romans.
6 verse 11.
Paul writes to all Christians.
Likewise.
Reckon ye.
Reckon ye also yourselves.
To be dead.
Indeed I said.
Reckon ye also yourselves to be dead.
Indeed unto sin.
But alive unto God through Jesus Christ our
Lord.
Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal
body.
That ye should obey it.
In lust thereof.
Neither yield ye your members as instruments of
unrighteousness unto sin.
But yield yourselves unto God.
As those that are alive from the dead.
And your members.
As instruments of righteousness unto God.
Leave in your eyes brother.
There's a moment you've got to yield these
in a covenant.
The purpose in your heart.
To let God deal with this.
Leave in your eyes sister.
Yield.
In one sacred moment.
And desperate moment.
But by faith.
For God to deal with it.
An old.
Godly woman.
Recently stood with me.
When her godly.
Godly husband died.
That I'd known for many years.
And she shared with me how.
When they were first married.
As a young married couple.
They were unsaved.
Unconverted.
But she said in that moment.
After her marriage.
She began to fear.
Because of his eyes.
The way his eyes.
Looked with lust.
That woman.
In front of her.
You forget the people you loved.
When you're sinning.
When you haven't dealt with sin.
She said.
She felt.
Defiled.
By his eyes.
She felt betrayed.
By his eyes.
His eyes.
His eyes betrayed her.
She was fearful because of his eyes.
That could not see.
And sin.
In front of her.
But then she said.
Christ stepped in.
And saved our souls.
And he was gloriously saved.
As a young man.
While we were still young and married.
With his eyes.
And from that time.
Brother Keith.
Through the years.
Till he died in his old age.
I never saw him betray me.
With his eyes once again.
That's Christ's salvation Keith.
Jesus didn't come to save.
His people in their sins.
But from their sins.
If you'll have it.
If you'll have it brother.
If you'll have it sister.
Oh Christian.
If you continually.
Fail God.
With your eyes.
Then I implore you.
I implore you tonight.
To sow to yourselves.
In righteousness.
Reap in mercy.
Break up your fallow ground.
For it is time.
To seek the Lord.
It is time to seek the Lord.
Till he come.
And reign righteousness upon you.
Till he come.
Not to some sort of prayer.
At the end of the sermon.
But till he come.
I will not let thee go.
Except thou bless me.
Except you have your way.
And you will with my life.
That destroys everything.
Though I'm saved.
I will not let thee go.
Except thou bless me.
Have my way.
No matter what it cost God.
Oh you shall seek me.
You shall find me.
When you shall search for me.
With all your heart God says.
That cost you everything.
But unless you're winning for that price.
It will cost you far more than everything.
It will cost you everything.
Yes dear.
Oh it's time to seek the Lord.
Till he come.
And reign righteousness upon you.
When a Christian.
Continually fails God.
Firstly.
Firstly with his eyes.
But secondly.
Secondly.
When a Christian.
Continually fails God.
Of corrupt.
Minds.
Men of corrupt.
Minds.
And even as they.
Did not like to retain.
God in their knowledge.
Even as they.
Did not like to retain.
God in their knowledge.
God gave them over.
To a reprobate mind.
To do.
Those things which are not to be.

Fulfilling.
The desires of the flesh and mind.
Fulfilling the desires.

Ephesians 2 verse 3.
For as he thinketh.
As he thinketh in his heart.
So is he.
As he thinketh in his heart.
So is he.
Proverbs 23 verse 7.
For out of the heart.
Out of the heart proceeds.
Evil thoughts.
Matthew 15 verse 19.
And heart.
That devises.
Wicked imaginations.
Feet.
That be swift in running to mischief.
Listen to order.
As he thinketh in his heart.
So is he.
What you think.
You are.
And heart.
That devises wicked imaginations.
Feet.
That be swift in running.
To mischief.
Proverbs 6 verse 18.
Their feet.
Run.
To evil.
Their thoughts.
Are thoughts of iniquity.
Isaiah 59 verse 7.
You see as he thinketh.
In his heart.
So is he.
God says.
What are you filling up in the reservoir
of your heart?
Their feet.
To evil.
Why?
Their thoughts.
Are thoughts of iniquity.
Isaiah 59 verse 7.
Woe to them.
That devise iniquity.
And work evil.
Upon their beds.
When the morning is light.
They practice it.
You see as he thinketh in his heart.
So is he.
Don't forget that.
God tells you.
You think these.
And you let these in your mind.
You do it.
What you think.
You are.
Woe to them.
That devise iniquity.
And work evil.
Upon their beds.
When the morning is light.
They practice it.
Because it is in the power of their
hands.
Micah 2 verse 1.
Let the wicked.
Forsake his way.
And the unrighteous man.
His thoughts.
Isaiah 55 verse 7.
Do you know how that goes?
It is not two men.
And another man.
His thoughts.
It is the same man.
It is literally like this in the Hebrew.
Let the wicked forsake his way.
The unrighteous man.
His thoughts.
You see as he thinketh in his heart.
So is he.
You want to forsake that way.
You want God to deal with it.
Deal with it.
Let the wicked forsake his way.
And the unrighteous man.
His thoughts.
Isaiah 55 verse 7.
And bringing into captivity.
Bringing into captivity.
Every thought.
To the obedience of Christ.
2 Corinthians 10 verse 5.
Bringing into captivity.
Every thought.
You can.
You are as holy as you want to
be.
And any theologian that tells you different is
a liar.
Don't you blame God.
That you live in sin.
While you lay in his name.
Bringing into captivity.
Every thought.
To the obedience of Christ.
2 Corinthians 10 verse 5.
And be not conformed.
To this world.
But be ye transformed.
By the renewing of your mind.
Romans 2.
By the renewing of your mind.
Finally brethren.
What so ever things are true.
What so ever things are honest.
What so ever things are just.
What so ever things are pure.
What so ever things are lovely.
What so ever things are good report.
If there be any virtue.
And if there be any praise.
Think on these things.
Philippians 4 verse 8.
I dare you.
Young people.
To put that.
On a little plaque.
Boldly.
And put it over the music.
Before you select.
A CD.
That you hope your mother and father.
Won't ever hear.
I dare you.
Who have televisions.
To put that on top of your television.
Do me a favor.
Give it a chance.
The same size as a screen.
Put it on top.
That whole verse.
In bold black letters.
As you sit listening.
Knowing you know you are saying to God.
You as good as putting your fist up
to heaven in his face.
Knowing what he says.
How easy it is to throw us out.
Everything out of the conscience.
Put it on top of your television.
If you haven't got the strength to put
it off.
Throw it out.
Tell me something young man.
The videos.
The music.
The DVDs.
The programs.
The books.
Is being entertained.
Worth being defiled.
Answer God.
Or why are you here tonight.
Does it offend you that someone speaks like
this.
Someone has to.
Don't you judge me.
Judge me if I don't.
Before there is nothing left.
Nothing left of the standard of.
The world will be the standard of the
churches.
Nothing left.
Be careful.
Be careful church of Christ.
If you name the name of Jesus.
What so ever things.

That's why I get scared of novels.
What so ever things.

What so ever things are just.
What so ever things are pure.
Music included.

What so ever things are lovely.
Lovely.
Put it off child of God.

To a life of holiness.
If there is anything that can do.
Anything like that to keep you.
Anything that is the music you listen to.
And it can build you up.
Music that is godly and lovely and pure.
It can keep you from negativeness.
God the holy ghost can use even music.
But the devil.
Will destroy anything you would ever know.
But you walk with Jesus Christ through music.
If it's not.
If it's even got a question mark.
You're finished.
As far as you tend to walk with
God.
When a Christian.
Continually fails God.
When a Christian.
Continually fails God.
Firstly.

Secondly.

But thirdly.
With his lips.

With his lips.
When does a Christian.
Fail God with his lips.
According to this book.
When does a Christian fail God.
With his lips.
According to this book.
Firstly.
With lies.
Lies.
Thou shalt not.
Bear false witness.
Against thy neighbor.
God said to his people.
Watch the answer.
Exodus 20 verse 16.
Thou shalt not.
Bear false witness.
Against thy neighbor.
Unhypocrite.
With his mouth.
Destroyeth his neighbor.
Destroyeth.
His neighbor.
Proverbs chapter 29.
The tongue.
The tongue is an unruly evil.
Full of deadly poison.
The tongue is an unruly evil.
God says.
James 3 verse 9.
Lying lips or abomination.
To the Lord.
Proverbs chapter 22.
Do you believe that?
as you lie?
Abomination!
God says about you what you do.
Abominable.
Or does God play with words that you
don't need to tell me about?
Lying lips are abomination to the Lord.
But these lips can lie in other evil
ways, Christian.
These lips can lie in other evil ways,
Christian.
These lips can lie in prayer.
But a man's prayers are not meant for
God but to impress others.
His words, his words rise to heaven as
a stance of evil hypocrisy.
When a man's prayers are not meant for
God but to impress others, his words rise
to heaven as a stance of evil hypocrisy.
Jesus Christ condemns men.
In Matthew 23 verse 14, Christ condemns those
who for a pretense make long prayers.
Who for a pretense make long prayers.
In Matthew 6 verse 5, Jesus warns us,
when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as
the hypocrites are.
Do you know what that word means now?
The original usage of the Greek word hypocrite
was an actual on a stage.
Now Jesus knew that when he said these
terrifying words, when thou prayest thou shalt not
be as the hypocrites are.
Thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are.
For they love to pray standing in the
synagogues and in the corners of the streets
that they may be seen of men.
Verily I say unto you, they have their
reward.
They have their reward.
What reward?
Don't doubt this, nothing from God.
There's no reward from heaven to such a
man.
Christ is talking of what they want.
They want to impress men.
And men are so gullible, you've just got
to pray loud and long and they think
it's spiritual.
So they have what they want.
It's the only reward they'll ever get.
They impress men.
They have their reward.
But when thou prayest, when thou prayest, enter
into thy closet, the most private place you
can find in your circumstance of life.
And when thou hast shut thy door, when
thou hast shut thy door to the eyes
and the ears of men, not for the
eyes and the ears of men, be careful
when you shut that door for whose eyes
you're shutting it at four o'clock in
the morning.
Be careful.
This separates the hypocrites from that which has
any iota of reality in Christ's sight more
than anything else in Christianity.
When thou hast shut thy door, pray to
thy Father which is in secret, which is
in secret, and thy Father which seeth in
secret shall reward thee openly.
If you are not faithful in your prayer
life when no one is watching, your public
prayers are evil, hypocritical lies.
Can I repeat that?
If you are not faithful in your prayer
life when no one is watching, your public
prayers are evil, hypocritical lies.
When a Christian continually, continually fails God with
his lips, with lies, firstly with lies, secondly,
secondly, with blasphemy, thou
shalt not take the name of the Lord
thy God in vain.
For the Lord will not hold him guiltless,
will not hold him guiltless that taketh his
name in vain.
Neither shalt thou profane the name of the
Lord thy God.
Christian, don't ever use God's name irreverently.
Don't ever use the name of Jesus, don't
ever use God's name irreverently or as a
swear word or curse word in exasperation or
anger.
When a Christian continually fails God with his
lips, firstly with lies, secondly, with blasphemy, thirdly,
by making oaths, by making oaths to try
and add credibility to what he's saying.
In Matthew 5 verse 33, Jesus said, again
we have heard that it hath been said
by them of old times, thou shalt not
persuade thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord
thine oaths.
But I say unto you, swear not at
all, neither by heaven, for it is God's
throne, nor by the earth, for it is
his footstool, neither by Jerusalem, for it is
the city of the great King.
It is the city of the great King,
neither shalt thou swear by thine head, because
thou canst not make one hair white or
black, but let your communication be yea, yea,
nay, nay, yes or no, for whatsoever is
more than these cometh of evil.
For whatsoever is more than these cometh of
evil.
In James chapter 5 verse 12, we read,
but about all things, my brethren, about all
things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven,
neither by the earth, neither by any other
oath, but let your yea be yea and
your nay, nay, lest ye fall into condemnation.
It is an insult to Christ's name if
a Christian is required to say anything more
than yes or no to be believed.
It is an insult to Christ's name if
a Christian is required to say anything more
than yes or no to be believed.
When a Christian continually fails God, continually fails
God with his lips, with his lips firstly
with lies, secondly with blasphemy, thirdly by making
oaths, fourthly by using coarse filthy language.
When a Christian continually fails God, continually fails
God with his lips, fourthly by making oaths,
fifthly by using coarse filthy language.
Put off all filthy communication out of your
mouth, Colossians 3 verse 8.
Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your
mouth.
Ephesians 4 verse 29, neither filthiness nor foolish
talking, Ephesians 5 verse 4, this holy book
condemns, condemns those whose mouth is full of
cursing, the great there says obscenities.
This holy book condemns those whose mouth is
full of cursing, Romans 3 verse 14, but
oh, if a Christian, if a Christian continually
fails God with his mouth by using coarse
filthy language, that is tragic, that is shameful.
When a Christian continually, continually fails
God with his lips, firstly with lies, lies,
secondly with blasphemy, thirdly by making oaths, fourthly
by using coarse filthy language, fifthly with murmuring,
with murmuring, with murmuring, do all
things without murmuring and disputing, Philippians 2 verse
14, do all things without murmuring and disputing.
But careful now, that's not the end, the
next verse tells you why.
Verse 15, that ye may be blameless and
harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke.
Listen sister, beginning in the home, you will
never, ever be blameless and harmless, the sons
of God, without rebuke, until you do the
statement, not just look at the feet of
the statement.
The statement is this, do all things without
murmuring in your home, otherwise you'll send your
children to hell.
That ye may be blameless is the result
of this, harmless, the sons of God, without
rebuke, and that will never be possible until
you do all things by God's grace without
murmuring and disputing.
In everything give thanks, not for everything, that
would be obnoxious to God, but in spite
of anything, God allows in your circumstances in
the school of God, in spite of anything
God allows, he's still God.
Nothing will come near you, if it wasn't
for you to pass in a jam, and
we're all in a school of God, in
everything, in spite of anything time, but I
allow, in everything, don't let the devil just
put one mountain, that's all it takes to
become a perfect murmurer.
When all God cries out to make you
a perfect worshipper, what are you?
Not in the building you're sitting in now,
that's easy to say hallelujah, you are as
real lady, as when everything goes wrong, that
you can say thank you, otherwise you've got
to leave the school, your children are there
to know how far you've
come.
Millions would crawl on their knees on glass
for one kilometer, for one mile, to have
one tenth of what you've got, don't stop
thanking me if the devil gives you one
problem, don't start becoming a perfect murmurer, the
devil will put one mountain in your life
every day till you die, and that will
keep you from praising, from fulfilling.
In everything, give thanks for this, this is
the will of God, in Christ Jesus concerning
you, this is the will of God, in
Christ Jesus concerning you, 1 Thessalonians 5 verse
18, although the fig tree shall not blossom,
neither shall fruit be in the vine, the
labor of the olive shall fail, and the
fields shall yield no meat, the flock shall
be cut off from the fold, and there
shall be no herd in the storm, yet
I will rejoice in the Lord, I rejoice
in the God of my salvation, Habakkuk 3
verse 17 and 18.
Do you think these are just words?
This is the set workbook of the school
of God that every one of you in,
you only have one set book in God's
school, everything you read you suddenly will face
in a jam, until you pass what God
says, it's not words to read to prick
the picking ears you know, this you will
face, every single one of you when everything
goes wrong.
When everything was taken from Job in one
devastating tragic moment, when everything was taken from
Job in one devastating tragic moment, his wife,
his helpmate, turned to him in brokenness and
confusion in chapter 2 verse 9 and said,
curse God, curse God and don't die.
But he said unto her, thou speakest as
one of the foolish women speakest.
What, shall we receive good at the hand
of God and shall we not receive evil?
Do we only trust God and serve him
if everything goes right in life?
Shall we receive good at the hand of
God and shall we not receive evil?
In all this, in all this did not
Job sin with his lips.
Hallelujah.
And sister, if Job could do that, you
can.
You can brother.
And God's waiting, waiting for you to, before
he'll stop putting you through his exams, you've
got to pass the exam.
You'll face it till death in God's hope
that you might just rise up to prove
that he can give you the grace you
need to pass the separate book.
The standard of God in this book is
not to tickle our ears, it's to live,
it's to live, it's to live.
By him, by him therefore, our high priest,
Jesus, let us offer the sacrifice of praise
to God continually.
That is the fruit of our lips, giving
thanks to his name, Hebrews 13 verse 15.
By him therefore, let us offer the sacrifice
of praise.
When it's not easy, listen, an unsaved person
with a Bible, and I wonder how many
of them are, can shout hallelujah louder than
anybody in the world every Sunday, if everything
goes right.
But when things go wrong, God shifts out
the truth from the false and you find
out fast in the home, whether your mother
and father are truly right with God or
saved or disreligious.
How?
Just let things go wrong, brother.
Just let things go wrong, sister.
Those that it's a sacrifice, that's when praise
is worth something to God.
Until then, lady, your praise is as good
as an unsaved who will praise God forever,
never been born again if everything goes right.
And they do praise God until, and I
watched it, until things go wrong, they throw
that book down and curse God like the
devil said Job would, but Job didn't.
He did it because he was real.
Hallelujah.
By him therefore, Jesus, our high priest, let
us offer the sacrifice.
When it's not easy, but you're still going
to go on praising.
Oh, the devil hurls back in all his
demons, billions of miles, screaming in fear when
a man praises.
When everything, God allows the devil to hurt.
That's godliness.
I will offer to thee the sacrifice of
thanksgiving.
Psalm 114 verse 17.
When a Christian, when a Christian, when a
Christian continually fails God with his lips, firstly
with lies, secondly with blasphemy, thirdly by making
oaths, fourthly by using coarse, filthy language, fifthly
with murmurings, murmurings, murmurings, until they in the
church, until they look.
Then it's a lie.
Because that's not what they are.
They're no Christian watcher.
Sixthly, with whisperings, with whisperings, with
whisperings, speak not evil one of another brethren.
James 4 verse 11.
He that uttereth a slander, he that uttereth
a slander is a fool.
Proverbs 10 verse 18.
A whisperer, a whisperer, separated chief friends.
No one can do that in the devil's
hands but a whisperer.
A whisperer, separated chief friends.
Proverbs 16 verse 28.
Where no wood is, where no wood is,
there, there the fire goes out.
So, where there is no tale bearer, the
Hebrew is whisperer.
Where there is no tale bearer, the strife
ceases.
Show me a church divided, show me a
movement crumbling, crashing, divided.
I'll find you just one whisperer who did
that.
That's all the devil needs.
So, where there is no tale bearer, whisperer,
the strife ceases.
God says.
Proverbs 26 verse 20.
When a Christian continually fails God, continually fails
God with his lips, firstly with lies, secondly
with blasphemy, thirdly by making oaths, fourthly by
using his tongue.
Using coarse, filthy language, fifthly with murmurings, murmurings,
sixthly with whisperings, whisperings, whisperings, whisperings, seventhly
with endless, endless, endless
babblings.
Avoiding vain, babbling, empty talk, literally.
1 Timothy 6 verse 20.
But some, some vain babblings, worthless talk, for
they will increase unto more ungodliness.
They will increase unto more ungodliness.
2 Timothy 2 verse 16.
In the multitude of words, in the multitude
of words there wanteth not sin, there lacks
no sin in that light.
Trust me, God doesn't make a mistake if
he tells you that it's true.
In the multitude of words there wanteth not
sin, but he that refraineth his lips is
wise.
Proverbs 10 verse 19.
In the multitude of words there wanteth not
sin, you can be sure of it.
Get away from that.
There's sin about that.
In the multitude of words there wanteth not
sin, suffer not thy mouth to cause thy
flesh to sin.
Kenneth Ecclesiastes 5 verse 6.
So is the tongue among our members that
it defileth the whole body, and setteth on
fire the course of nature.
James 3 verse 6.
So is the tongue among our members that
it defileth the whole body.
This is the tip of the iceberg.
No control here, no control anywhere, God says.
And God doesn't lie.
We don't argue, we have no control here.
You have no victory anywhere the devil wants
to come.
Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh
to sin.
So is the tongue among our members that
it defileth the whole body, and setteth on
fire the course of nature.
James 3 verse 6.
In the multitude of words there wanteth not
sin, they let no sin in their life.
They let no sin.
A fool, that's a terrible word.
God says you must dare never call a
man a fool, or God will judge you.
But if God calls you a fool.
A fool, God says, also is full of
words.
Full of words.
Ecclesiastes 10 verse 14.
A fool uttereth all his mind.
Proverbs 29 verse 11.
A fool's mouth is his destruction.
Proverbs 18 verse 7.
He that hath knowledge, spareth his word.
Proverbs 18 verse 27.
Even a fool, even a fool when he
holdeth his peace is counted as wise.
And he that shutteth his lips is esteemed
a man of understanding.
Proverbs 27 verse 28.
17 verse 29.
But wait now, beloved, to conclude this point.
Listen carefully.
A man hath joy.
Now, if you all had a piece of
paper, and you were utterly honest with what
you think would make you happy.
If my children were all godly and none
of them were rebellious.
If my wife finally becomes a slave unless
we trample over her and doesn't say boo.
Which she should do.
In your understanding of the scripture.
You're so calm.
A man hath joy.
If financially he prospered and isn't got any
fears about tomorrow.
In his workplace.
Oh, I could go on.
But this isn't what God who created you
and who says to you what will give
you joy.
A man hath joy.
By the answer of his mouth.
Proverbs 15 verse 23.
Why, you see, the joy of the Lord
is your sin.
And God isn't up there a billion miles
away.
He's in you.
And the Holy Spirit's joy when you pass
the exam, no matter what ugliness is happening
to your children.
To your wife even.
To your enemies.
A man hath joy.
God's joy.
You want to know why so many Christians
look miserable.
Like it's a curse to be saved.
Because they just fail all the time here.
And it's God's grief.
It's not your grief when the Holy Spirit
is in you and you fail with the
tongue.
Because that's the tip of the iceberg of
what you're going to fail with anyway.
Oh, the grief of God written on people's
eyes because they fail all the time.
Beginning in the home.
It doesn't work in the home.
It doesn't work anywhere.
The rest is just a sham.
You're as real as you are in the
home.
And your children's just an idiot.
Is all you're worth.
If they're honest, that is.
A man hath joy.
God's joy.
The joy of the Lord.
You think it's your own joy when suddenly,
when everything's come against everybody's crew, everybody's unjust
to you, and you have joy?
That's just enough.
It's impossible.
But with God, it's joy unspeakable.
There's no way you could understand or you
could take, but God does it.
He gives you joy, brother.
There might be a tear in your eye
to who's doing it.
But it doesn't wake away God's peace.
And God's joy.
Because you know God's smile at you.
You know God's smile.
And heaven sometimes stands in despair.
Are you conscious of it?
Don't tell me you're not.
Depending on how severe the trial is.
A man hath joy by the answer of
his mouth.
For he that will love life.
He that will love life and see good
days.
Tell me somebody in this building who doesn't
want that.
Be honest.
Be honest now.
Who wants to hate life and see everything
wrong?
So you're honest?
Of course you want to love life.
So God says, he that will love life.
Every one of us want that.
You want it?
You want to do what God says.
What God says will be the first time
you honestly will love life.
And see good days.
And now we put the paper around and
the pens in it to see where you
go now.
The young fellow looks and says, to love
life.
See, only that girl would just look at
me.
Let alone marry me.
It's just a little bit harsh.
He that will love life.
What reason would you give?
What do you want to put down in
your conscience?
In honesty before God.
What you will believe you will never be
able to love life.
Until such things happen.
There are priorities on the other side.
But God tells you.
No matter what happens in life.
He that will love life.
And see good days.
Let him refrain his tongue from evil.
And his lips that they speak no guile.
Nothing questionable.
One Peter.
Three verse ten.
Whoso keepeth his mouth.
And his tongue.
Keepeth his soul.
Can I repeat it?
Whoso keepeth his mouth.
And his tongue.
Keepeth his soul.
From troubles.
Proverbs 21 verse 23.
He that keepeth his mouth.
Keepeth his life.
God says.
Keepeth his life.
Proverbs 13 verse 3.
Keep thy tongue from evil.
Psalm 34 verse 13.
Set a watch.
O Lord before my mouth.
Keep the jaws of my lips.
Psalm 141 verse 3.
If you don't pray that every day.
I doubt that you are right with God.
Because you know that this is the one
thing that.
Enters.
The capacity for the devil to reach every
sense of your life.
Circumstance by circumstance.
If you are not crying this from your
soul to God.
I am worried about you right now.
Set a watch.
O Lord.
Before my mouth.
Right now God while my child does this.
Let me not compromise.
Let me not be un-Christ like.
In this exam though.
Making me face.
Or it wouldn't have happened.
Set a watch O Lord.
Before my mouth.
Keep the jaws of my lips.
Psalm 141 verse 3.
When a Christian.
Continually fails God.
Firstly with his eyes.
With his eyes.
Secondly with his thoughts.
With his thoughts.
Thirdly with his lips.
With his lips.
And finally.
Finally.
When a Christian.
Continually.
Continually fails God.
The fruit.
Of the spirit.
Capital S.
Is.
Temperance.
That is self-control.
Galatians 5 verse 23.
The evidence.
That the Holy Spirit is in the life.
Is self-control.
Self-control.
He that is slow.
To anger.
He that is slow.
To anger.
Is better than the mighty.
And he that rules his spirit.
And he that taketh the city.
Proverbs 16 verse 32.
He that is slow.
To anger.
Is better than the mighty.
And he that rules his spirit.
Is not pretempered.
Easily provoked.
Than he that taketh the city.
16 verse 32.
He that is slow.
To wrath.
Slow to wrath.
Is of great understanding.
God says.
But.
He that is hasty of spirit.
Pretempered.
So tempered.
Exalts the folly.
Destroys everything.
Proverbs 14 verse 29.
Be not hasty in thy spirit.
To be angry.
For anger.
Rests in the bosom of fools.
God says.
Ecclesiastes 7 verse 9.
Be not hasty in thy spirit.
To be angry.
For anger.
Rests in the bosom of fools.
God says.
Be angry.
And sin not.
Let not the sun go down.
Upon thy wrath.
Now be careful.
You're not like a Jehovah Witness.
They take everything out of their context.
They're so scared you'll read the second half
of the verse they caught in.
That they go fast.
To get past before you can look.
Because it cancels out what they're saying.
Just look at the context of anything they're
saying.
In its context.
In the light of all scripture.
But especially in its context.
You'll find that they lie.
To themselves.
God gives them over to believe a lie.
Because they received not the love of the
truth.
They knew.
Don't tell me they won't reject.
You can't be like them.
When God says.
Be ye angry.
And sin not.
It's not a question mark.
That means you can never be angry.
There's such a thing as righteous indignation.
Beginning in the home.
And it's Christ like.
Be angry.
And sin not.
Let not the sun go down.
Upon your wrath.
Don't allow other people's failures.
To eventually cause you.
To fail more than them.
In God's eyes.
And man does.
The discretion of a man.
Deferreth his anger.
And it is his glory.
To pass over a transgression.
The discretion.
Oh.
That's something.
Once it's seen in your discretion.
You've got something.
Just read the Old Testament.
To see what worth discretion is.
God gives man discretion.
The discretion of a man.
Deferreth his anger.
And it is his glory.
To pass over a transgression.
Proverbs 19 verse 11.
It's his glory.
To put love.
Covereth a multitude of sins.
Love is not easily provoked.
You know the word there's agape.
It's not human love.
God isn't asking you to do it in
a human capacity.
He's asking you to yield.
And it's the degree that you yield to
God.
And absolutely surrender to that degree.
You're filled with the Holy Spirit.
Because being filled with the Holy Spirit.
Means nothing more and nothing less.
Than being controlled by the Holy Spirit.
And he cannot control any life.
Unless they're totally absolutely surrendered.
And at that point.
The fruit.
The evidence that the Holy Spirit.
Is in control of a life.
Is the fruit of the Spirit.
Love.
Suffereth long in his kind.
You can't do it in a human capacity.
It has to be to the degree.
You are yielded to God.
Absolutely surrendered to God.
You are filled with the Holy Spirit.
Sir.
Not by gifts.
1 Corinthians 13.
Cut out.
Throw away.
Tremble upon.
But don't tell me it's gifts.
You are filled with the Holy Spirit.
To the degree.
That the fruit of the Spirit.
Is the vital evidence.
And then you can think about gifts.
Paul says.
I show you a more excellent way.
Though I speak with the tongues of men
and angels.
And have not love.
The fruit of the Spirit.
I am becomes a sign in God.
Though I have the gift of prophecy.
And understand almost with all knowledge.
Oh.
I'm nothing.
I've got nothing.
I'm worth nothing.
In God's eyes and man's eyes.
It's not gifts.
Deal with it.
Absolute surrendered to God.
The evidence.
That you are filled.
With the Holy Spirit.
Controlled.
Because of your yielding everything.
On the altar.
Is the fruit of the Holy Spirit.
It is.
Love.
It's God's agape love.
That is.
Not easily provoked.
You're just not easily provoked.
You don't get upset.
With people.
There is righteousness in the nation.
But it doesn't go on.
In a way that you eventually see.
Worse than that.
For harboring.
Unforgetting hearts.
At their tables.
Beginning in the home.
An angry man.
Stirreth.
Up strife.
An angry man.
Oh you get the.
Stirreth.
Up strife.
And a furious man.
Aboundeth in transgression.
God says.
Make no friendship.
With an angry man.
And with a furious man.
Thou shalt not go.
Lest thou learn his ways.
And get a snare to thy soul.
Lest you become influenced by him.
And land up abounding in transgression.
Like he is.
In God and man's sight.
When a Christian.
Continually fears God.
Firstly through his eyes.
Secondly.
Through his thoughts.
Thirdly.
With his lips.
And fourthly.
With his reactions.
The greatest.
Single tragedy.
This world faces today.
The greatest.
Single tragedy.
This world faces today.
Is compromising Christianity.
Don't doubt it.
The greatest single tragedy.
This world faces today.
Is compromising Christianity.
Beginning in the home.
To every soul you approach daily.
Compromising Christianity.
Undermines the effect of the gospel.
I'm going to repeat that slow.
Beginning in the home.
To every soul you approach daily.
Compromising Christianity.
Undermines the effect of the gospel.
And the honor of Christ's name in this
world.
You want revival.
Don't preach about it.
If you're guilty.
Deal with it.
Until then you're the only reason God caught.
The heart.
Is deceitful.
Above all things.
And desperately wicked.
Who can know it?
I the Lord.
Search the heart.
I try the veins.
Search me oh God.
And know my heart.
Try me.
For out of the heart.
Out of the heart.
Out of the heart proceeds.
Evil thoughts.
Murders.
Adulteries.
Fornication.
Sexual vice.
Thefts.
False witness.
Blasphemy.
These are the things which defile a man.
God says.
Matthew 15.
Create in me a clean heart oh God.
And renew a right spirit within me.
A steadfast.
Consistent.
Grace to live the standard of this book.
For I will from this night cease from
a life of compromise.
In Christianity.
By thy grace God.
I want to ask you all.
I don't care if you're a preacher.
I don't care if you have a Bible
that looks worn.
I want to ask every one of you
that's got one eye open.
Respect to God left.
And not to religion.
Or the religious people who watch you.
I want those of you who have to
do with God.
I want those of you who are denied
in the way of Christ.
Who desperately.
Desperately.
Not shallow.
Desperately.
Require from God.
Create in me.
A clean heart oh God.
By the blood of Christ.
Renew a right spirit within me.
A consistent.
Steadfast.
Grace to live.
The standard of this book.
Which thou would not tell a man to
live it he can't.
Thou art not unholy.
Thou art hell.
Thou art integrity.
To command a man to do something he
can't is impossible.
Not from this God's hand.
And therefore I have to live it.
Create in me a clean heart oh God.
Renew a right spirit within me.
I absolutely surrender.
I yield my own in the oath of
God.
I don't want gifts.
Because gifts without the fruit are not of
God.
They're of the devil.
According to 1 Corinthians 13.
They're not of God.
I don't want gifts.
I want the fruit of the spirit to
be seen in my life.
No matter how trying the circumstances.
Spontaneously reacting cleanly.
Because God is living out his life in
me.
Being conformed back into the image that was
lost at the fall.
The image of Jesus Christ God's son.
No.
Sir is the fruit of the Holy Spirit.
Christ is the fruit of the Holy Spirit.
Holiness is Christ.
Christ-likeness.
Anything more is heresy.
Don't believe it's this.
You can just like a nun be a
devil.
And send your children to hell.
Just don't put the cart before the horse,
sir.
Those things have their place.
Thank God for modesty.
If it doesn't come strictly up to you
like with God there's something wrong with you.
But be careful.
The fruit.
Christ-likeness.
In your reactions.
Christ living out his life.
Christ being formed.
This is what God predestined.
Not for one to be taken to heaven
and one to be taken to hell.
No.
Before the foundation that somehow that what was
in me before the foundation that it would
be lost.
That image of God would be brought back.
Christ-likeness.
That man would be conformed back into the
image of his son by the Holy Ghost.
Whose whole work is to bring us back
into the image of Christ.
And he will the moment you yield it
to him.
Totally.
Absolute surrender.
And you cry to God to create in
you a clean heart and to renew a
right, a steadfast consistency to this book and
the standard in it.
You are yielding everything to God because you
can't live it in your own strength.
Only God can live this in you.
But you can only take it when you
yield and give up the fight.
Like Peniel.
And not let God go till he come
and reign righteousness upon you.
And he will when you yield everything to
him.
And absolutely surrender, child.
I want everyone who desperately needs to ask
God to create in them a clean heart
and destiny in this book.
To come and reign righteousness upon them.
Who know it's time to seek the Lord
tonight till he come and be everyone that
desperately needs to ask God from their soul
and inner being.
I want you to stand.
Those who are desperately needing this.
This will cost you.
But it'll cost you a billion times more.
Come.
Come forward.
We're gonna make something holy here.
Come forward and don't start speaking.
Speak in your heart so that the other
person doesn't have to listen to you.
They can speak to God themselves.
If you're a lady, if you're not well,
don't kneel.
It's not the outward kneeling that matters.
It's the inner heart.
To this man when I look, even to
him that's of a broken spirit, a contrite
heart, if you're in confession, abhorring what you've
done to God's name, to your children, to
your church, to souls, all
you need to do is come and bow
your hearts, not necessarily your body.
Those that are sitting, you have the right
to pray for these people ahead of you.
Please pray in your hearts that God will
never let them recover.
And if two or three of you agree,
touching anything that's the will of God, and
don't tell me you don't know that's God's
will, it will be done.
So you all have the right to pray
for them, to become like you are, obviously.
Everyone, please forgive me.
Just remember this.
God does not look at the words that
proceed out of the mouth.
God does not look at the words that
proceed out of the mouth.
He's looking at the hearts, from whence they
come.
Now he's looking at your hearts.
And I'm going to lead you in a
prayer, but that's not sin.
That's not sin.
As best as you can, let God know
this is from your heart.
In your prayer, though another man's leading you.
Because I don't want to lead you just
to yourselves, and I haven't got counselors here
that can take each one of you.
So I'm going to lead you as best
I know.
But you don't go in circles and walk
out of here the same, just confused of
how to deal with it.
So everyone, will you pray aloud with me,
but only to God, not for the next
man to hear you, please.
Don't make men look at you, saying, look
at me.
Be careful what you do.
In any moment, and it's it.
But say, look at me.
Even when you're praying or seeking God.
It's God alone that matters.
So speak in a way you know and
he knows.
And the devil knows it's only God that
matters here.
The way you pray.
Will you all pray with me, please?
Please pray, oh my God, forgive me for
the sin of my life, the grief that
I have caused thee and so many who've
been near me and are conscious that I
am a compromising Christian.
Forgive me for every failure, every defiance of
the standard of this book in my marriage
toward my enemy.
In circumstance upon circumstance, forgive me for defying
thee deliberately, calculatedly, knowingly, determinedly.
Forgive me for the shame of my profession
and the grief I have been to God
and man.
Forgive me for every sin.
Things I've forgotten because I'm so base.
I overlooked to confess.
Forgive me that the blood of Jesus Christ,
God's Son, that cleanses us from all sin,
wash away all my sin.
In mercy, make me clean, make me pure
in thine eyes.
Let me have a fresh start as thy
child because of the blood of Jesus Christ.
Let the blood go deeper.
Wash me through and through and through and
through and through and through.
Create in me a clean heart, O God.
Renew the right spirit within me, a steadfast,
consistent, walking in the standard of this book
by the grace of God.
I lay my life on the altar of
God.
I absolutely surrender.
I give up the fight on every issue
and I implore thee that thou will fill
me with the Holy Spirit.
By that I mean take control of this
vessel, total control.
Take my life and let it be consecrated
Lord to thee and let the evidence of
the sincerity of my prayer be seen from
the next step I take, the next look
I look, the next thought I think, the
next word I utter, the next reaction I
react.
No matter how trying the circumstances, that I
will spontaneously have the victory of the Holy
Spirit, the fruit of the Spirit.
And I will reveal Christ.
Help me to know that I am not
sinlessly perfected by what I have done tonight,
but that I can live in victory in
the light I've been given.
And as I walk in the light that
God has given me, the blood of Jesus
Christ, God's Son continually cleanses me from sins
committed in ignorance which the Old Testament people
had to make sacrifice to God for by
shedding of blood.
And therefore Jesus shed his blood for sins
committed in ignorance.
But I know that the path of the
just is a shining light that's shining more
and more unto the perfect day.
Until the day thou dost take me home,
more light must come that I must continually
yield to.
But I can live by thy grace in
the light I've been given.
If one isolated failure comes, on my road
to the celestial city with all the powers
of hell against me, help me not to
give up but to get up.
To confess that one sin in shame and
to look to the blood and not to
allow another sin to come in my disillusionment.
To get up and carefully seek God for
grace where there's a weak spot.
And I know that if I never neglect
the quiet time to soak myself in the
word of God and in prayer morning and
night if that is the greatest priority in
my life that I will never let anything
keep me from that nothing will divert me
from no matter what it costs morning and
night and beginning tonight till I die I
know that I will grow from this time
forth in consistency a consistent growth into more
and more Christ-likeness which is the only
desire of my heart.
Live out thy life within me O Jesus,
King of kings I have one deep burning
desire that I may be like Jesus for
apart from that I have nothing of any
value to God or man for no one
will want what I offer if I don't
reveal Christ beginning in my home.
In Jesus Christ's name in Jesus the Christ's
name for his sake only for his glory
only I ask this with all my heart
of my Father in heaven Amen Can we
remain just as we are just for one
moment, don't move America has one hope if
the Christians of this land seek God for
the things we've sought God for now not
for a Bible that's an empty word that
means anything today it can mean big crowds
that's your Bible sir, that's not otherwise the
Jehovah Witnesses have got your Bible God's Bible
it's not true and to a Christian there
are multitudes of Christians in this land but
the bulk I believe are compromising and that's
why we have lost our vital reality we
as a salt of the earth have lost
our saviour and we've become worthless the world
just looks upon what we've got and doesn't
want it and we're trampled on the foot
of men they don't want that and I
don't blame them until we get back to
this you want to pray for something God
let the Christians of America seek this because
until they get back to the standard of
this book you've never known the Bible and
your country will get worse in its problems
but if Christians across this land seek God
through this standard of this book of just
what I've preached today let alone the rest
I guarantee you America nothing this world will
try will destroy this land your history will
change and stagger the whole world because Christians
on their knees is the only army that
can save America from being destroyed your great
enemy isn't Islam your great enemy is Christians
who could have saved their land but are
not hearing that this is what God's waiting
for before He'll answer their prayers and on
their knees that's the army God waits for
that's the only army that's going to save
this land the army of God on its
knees right with God because if our hearts
condemn us not then have we confidence toward
God and whatsoever we ask we receive of
Him because we keep His commandments and do
those things that are pleasing in His sight
if our hearts condemn us not and they
don't condemn anybody in England here from this
moment so right now if you started praying
for your nation tonight the devil and all
the powers of hell will be screaming and
hurling backwards in fear into eternity into space
at what you're doing because when you're right
with God if our hearts condemn us not
then have we confidence toward God church of
Jesus Christ but not until then and whatsoever
we ask we receive of Him because we
keep His commandments and do those things that
are pleasing in His sight the eyes of
the Lord are over the righteous His ears
are open unto their prayers but the face
of the Lord is against them that do
evil Christians included your prayers will turn this
land's history it's not your president that's going
to do that don't wait for politicians as
a man said last night let me tell
you from my heart sir I'm not American
so you're going to have to forgive me
I have one fear for America that the
Christians don't seek God like the Scots and
others and then start praying on their knees
for this land to be saved from what
the devil wants to do if the Christians
turn back to what they should be the
godless will start to tremble not to look
at you in contempt and tremble in you
like they are they will tremble and fear
as they open their mouth against you let
alone they finally call against you as being
the evil ones you want revival now when
I tell you what you really need wanting
is that the church of Jesus Christ gets
back to the standard of this book outside
of that you're asking God for something he
doesn't want and then church of Christ right
with God on their knees watch what God
does for your land until then until then
your land has no hope you will weep
soon you will weep soon church of Christ
if you don't because this is the only
means by which God can save America now
you may be offended because I'm not even
American I have a responsibility though not just
for one little land or one little denomination
like Wesley I try to ask God that
the world will be my palace that's not
sincere because God loved the world so I
don't stand you as an ambassador for Jesus
I don't stand you as an ambassador for
South Africa that would be folly I wouldn't
speak to politics I have one thing in
my life in being in your country an
ambassador for Christ and one thing to tell
this land is what this book says outside
of that I've got nothing of any worth
to you but don't you judge me for
bringing this book back to this land or
any other land on this earth judge me
if I don't let's bow let's bow before
a holy God please reverential fear reverential fear

please after too long may sisters just pray

properly to tell us how to end this
