If your filling you've been dealt a bad hand in life - & your life is nothing but stale & dried up - Do as Joseph did & call out from the PIT - & the LORD will deliver you from the pit of imprisonment - & as the bible says - The First Will Become Last, & The Last Will Become First !!
Genesis 1:2 - Meditate the Scripture Daily bit by bit
When exhausting all efforts

LETS REMEMBER SAINTS OF
GOD, - TO OPEN YOUR HEART –
WHEN YOU OPEN YOUR BIBLE.
____________________________________
( 23 )--And it came to pass – when Joseph
was come unto his brethren – that they
stripped Joseph out of his coat – his coat of
many colors that was on him – ( 24 ) – and
they took him, - and cast him into a pit; - and
the pit was empty, - there was no water in it.
– ( 25 ) – And they sat down to eat bead; -
and they lifted up their eyes & looked, - and
behold – a company of Ish-me-elites came
from Gil-e-ad with their camels bearing
spicery and balm and myrrh, - going to carry
it down to Egypt. – ( 26 ) – And Judah said
2. unto his brethren, - what profit is it if we slay
our brother, - and conceal his blood – ( 27 ) –
come, and let us sell him to the Ish-me-elites,
- and let not our hand be upon him; - for he
is our brother and our flesh. – And his
brethren were content.
----------------------------------------------------
And now for this time of ministering, -
I’m going to title this message
(LIVING OUTSIDE OF THE PIT)
--------------------------------------------------
LET US PRAY
I ASK OF YOU NOW – AT THIS
TIME HEAVENLY FATHER, - TO
CONFIRM YOUR WORD, -- WITH
SIGNS & MIRICLES FOLLOWING. `
3. AND THAT YOU OPEN THE EYES
OF THE BLIND, -- THAT THEY MAY
SEE, - WITH UNDERSTANDING, -- AND
THAT THOSE WHOM YOU HAVE
LEAD HERE NOW, -- WHO ARE HERE, -
AT THIS GIVEN TIME, - CAN LEAVE
FROM HERE, - FILLED, WITH YOUR
SPIRIT.
( & EVERYONE SAY AMEN ).
____________________________________
Now - the message of Joseph, in the pit,
- has been used many times throughout
the years - to illustrate - many of Gods
wondrous ways - & works of salvation.
But at this time, - I’m going to use it -
to show - how that anyone, - can pull
4. themselves up, ---- & out of the pit ----- of
( Self Deception, - Self Manipulation - &
Self Pity ) ---- And begin moving
forward - in Jesus Christ. ----
The first thing - that a person should
do -- If there wanting God to move in
their life – is to think - Godly –--- & to
live - Godly
The mind – if not guarded – can easily
become - a playground for the devil -----
-- that’s why it’s so important - that a
person - puts on – the mind of Christ –---
so their thoughts – can not only be
brought into reality - but can also become
- thoughts that can be relied on.If you’ve
5. become the victim – of someone else’s -
weak & battered - self esteem
-- You’ve got to make it your duty –
To Get up - & get out --- of THE PIT
– of gloom & doom ---- so that your
later days ---- will become stronger -than
your former days.
Please take this message to heart - &
understand – that your thoughts –-- can
very well be your problem –--- FOR IT’S
AS A MAN THINKETH IN HIS HEART
– SO IS HE.
Jesus wants to open your eyes – & HE
wants you to see - your life --- for what it
truly is
6. He wants you to see - more clearly
INTO YOUR EXISTANCE -- ---–--- &
HE wants YOU to know ---- that
Character Harassment ---- from where
ever it may come -- can affect the way -
that you perceive – not only HIM -- but
YOURSELF also.
– The Lord has already prepared - a
brand new life –- that’s just for you -- a
life that’s already adorned – with HIS
blessings - & HIS promises --- & HE
wants YOU – to have it.
– HE’S holding right now – just for
you - a triumphant life ---- a life that’s
filled -- with Gratification, -- & self
worth.
7. ---- A life that is NOT built - on
The impious -- world of today –--- which
is a way of life – that’s filled with
incorrigible souls – who cannot be
reformed --- & are lacking the holy
reverence - for God - & his people.
-- And because there this way – it’s
making them – & the Lords people also --
– to fill that the life - that they are living –
is not at all - what they had expected it to
be.
They are filling that God -- has dealt
them - a bad hand –-- when it’s God
himself --- who’s been trying to show
them All along --- that HE - had nothing
to do - with the life – that they have
8. chosen - to live.
And I’m sure –-- that there are some
of you here –-- who feel the same way
-- & I’m sure that there are some –
that are feeling -- that you’re way of life -
has become dead & stale – all distant &
dark --- becoming all dried up
-- or maybe - you’re feeling – what (1st
peter 1) – 23 & 24 ) describes
--- as an Unpurified Soul – which is the
soul of a person ---- that has disobeyed -
the truth of the Word
– & in doing so --- they have caused
9. themselves – to have a spiritual heart
attack --- that has left them – with an
unbelieving spirit & heart
– and all of these worldly occurrences
- along with its wars & troubling events --
are now - affecting your life - & all of
those around you
-- and it’s making you to feel like
you’re all bottled up --- & it’s driving you
to believe – that your withering up - as
the grass that dies - with no hope left.
-- But thank God for the (H.G.) -- which
is - The saving - & Purification of Life
–--- which generates - that life giving
10. power of Jesus Christ –- that makes a soul
to become sanctified -- & washed clean
– from all of the negative -- & unclean
works of evil – that is brought about - by
the old man – the devil - & the world - &
all of their carnal ways of thinking.
This supernatural work of God – will
bury the old - & will raise up the new ---
& will make a person to see – exactly why
– that there in the situation – that there in
- as the Convicting Spirit of God’s
word –-- begins to pull them ---- from
THE UNFORGIVING -- PIT OF SIN.
This is all explained - in the written
11. word ------ which is the life giving –
resuscitating - words of God
–- that kick starts the spiritual heart of
man –--- which in turn --- transports him
-- into a brand new life --- that will
change his surroundings - & way of
thinking - forever.
-- This miraculous Transformation ---
will open a person’s eyes --- & allow them
to see - the light of Gods -- redemptive
love.
This is why this word of God is
preached – this is why there are
preachers
12. –- for there are put here by God – to
direct – to instruct – to revile – to heal –
to correct ------- & to show everybody ----
that they can live -- OUTSIDE OF THE
PIT.
You may be filling ---- like you’re
missing out --- on everything - that life
has to offer you.
--- But hear me out --- If you’re on the
outside - looking in –--- & your seeing
THE FRUIT of Gods people - flourishing
in their lives
-- then you’re sure to be suffering –----
- suffering from --- self humiliation, ---
self stagnation ---- worry, - or – some
13. other demonic snare –---- that is sending
you - these thoughts --- of self
condemnation - & discontent.
You do not have to live with this –--
For these are Spiritual Symptoms - that
only - THE GREAT PHYSICIAN
HIMSELF – Jesus Christ - can fix.
And it’s these symptoms – that have
blinded people –- ever since the beginning
of man -- causing them – - to lose their
inability to focus ------ on what it is -
that’s needed – or lacking - in their lives.
– This means -- that there’s a void –
or - an empty hole --- in their heart &
spirit –-- where the love of Jesus - should
14. be instead.
- Come on – lets all join in together
& pray, ------ were going to worship, --- &
were going to minister to one another’s
needs ---- in the Holy Ghost.
& when it’s over - when it’s all said &
done ---- were going to leave from Gods
house ----- victorious -- in the name of
Jesus Christ.
- Come on --- are you going to believe
with me saints –-- are you going to fight
the good fight of faith - with me.
Praise the Lord --- I feel that were all
on the right track --- we’ve left the devils
domain - outside the doors of this church,
15. - And we’ve left the world to its own
affairs & devices –--- & we have all come
together ----- in one mind & one accord –-
- were going to take care - of the
affairs of God – so that HE - can take care
of us.
- We are going to allow at this time -
the (H.G.) – to minister to us –---- were
going to allow our God – our Lord &
savior - Jesus Christ - to begin &
transform us
-- as we submissively - give ourselves
to HIM --- allowing HIM - to make US -
into the person – that we are supposed to
16. be.
Now I pray - that everyone here is
familiar - with the story of Joseph,
-- & how his brothers - unknowingly -
brought josephs dreams - into reality ----
& they did this - without even knowing -
what they were doing.
Now REALITY – is an awakening
experience of the unseen – which WE as
Christians – experience – as in the
Kingdom reality – in ( Luke 17 )
which says that (the kingdom of God –
comes not – with observation ---- for just
as – mercy & salvation – it’s the unseen
17. touch - of the (H.G.)
Now Josephs pit, - or – life’s dead end
road --- was suppose to have been ---- the
end to Josephs life
but instead –-- were going to see how
the Lord – turned everything around – as
only HE can do --- & put Joseph exactly --
where he was suppose to be.
- Now understand --- that it was our
God – who was - the same God back then
--- as HE IS – today
---- & he’s the same God - who set
Joseph up – with a brand new life - &
HE’S the same God – who can - & will do
18. it - for YOU
Joseph was set up – with a new life -
that was Ordained by God –-- Made by
God ---- & Controlled by God
– WHY - because Joseph - was not
only of the Blood Line - & linage of Christ
----- but he was also -- the SPIRITUAL
HEIR ---- to the Throne - Of God.
-- All of YOU here - who are filled
with the spirit of Gog - are Kingdom Heir
saints of God
--- So know that YOU -- are the ones –
- who have already purposed in your
heart – to follow Christ
19. -which has in turn – has made you –
COVENANT HEIRS –-- to everything –
that your heavenly father owns.
Know that It’s YOU – saints of living
God - who convene together – who all
gather in one accord --- who connect
together - in one another
– becoming intertwining spirits - with
the Lord ----- as YOUR inner man ----
begins to churn & to ACTIVAT ----- the
power of the (H.G.).
– For YOU are those ----- who are the
CALLED OUT ONES ---- those who are
heir –-- to a triumphant life ---- that is
filled with the Freedom - the knowledge --
20. - & the understanding of what
Righteousness – can do - for someone.
--- It’s that - along with a spiritual
insight --- to wonderful things PRESENT
---- & wonderful things TO COME
that will keep you ahead of your enemies -
-- & your competitors –--- elevating YOU
as a person ---- & making you known -- to
everyone around you --- that YOU - are a
child - of THE KING.
You become HIS –--- the second - that
you are spiritually injected ---- into his
bloodline –--- for it’s HIS blood --- that
will clean you up --- & will make you
white as snow ---
21. as HE -- spiritually implants YOU –
into - HIS body
– which then qualifies you ---- as a
member ---- of HIS BRIDE ---- having
now - a higher calling in life ---- which is
all brought about – by Jesus --- filling
YOU - with the H.G.
And NOW – YOU are no longer –
A PIT DWELLER ------- For its Gods
power ----- that gives you the victory –----
over ALL – of your life’s enemies.
--- & this will happen - Because YOU –
have been grafted - into HIS body ––
which makes up – what we all know --- as
the Church – or HIS bride.
22. You’re no longer a member - of the
PIT DWELLERS ASS. ----- Your no
longer - Pushed aside – separated &
excluded – from society & friends
Because ( Greater Is HE – That Is In
You, Than he, Who Is In The World ) –
And because you are no longer dead -
& you are no longer separated from God -
& ALL of HIS wondrous blessings - & life
giving plans for your life
YOU – then will be able – to get up & out
- of the devils PIT of lies & afflictions -----
& begin stirring up --- that measure of
faith – that has been given you ---- by the
Lord himself
23. -- & you – will begin, allowing Jesus
Christ - to start HIS surgery ---- of
GRAFTING YOU INTO – THAT
BLESSED – & HOLY, STATE OF MIND
where your THOUGHTS – are no
longer your enemy –--- because your now
--- OUTSIDE OF THE PIT ---- where
real life begins -- & all troubles subside.
As you - begin to sacrifice YOUR
WILL –--- & begin to make way - for
GODS WILL
–- You no longer - can ever - be sold -
into slavery ---- & no more – will you --
fall prey - to the spirit of pharaoh
who is that evil TASK MASTER - of the
24. soul –-- who throws all of his victims -
into the river of death--- & does it -
without any remorse at all
– leaving you only to drown – in your
own pity & misery ---- only to be
remembered no more.
Friend – if you think strong – you’ll be
strong
– if you think weak – you’ll be weak
– if you think wrong – you’ll go wrong
– if you think sickness – you’ll become
sick
You’re life - will be defined – by what
you’ve been fed –---- if your fed death –
you will die – if your fed life – you will
25. live
What are you thinking about all day –
You know ---- If someone tells a child –
that they are useless – that child - will
become useless
– But if someone else comes along - &
takes that same child - & tells him that
their Special --- that child - will think of
himself – as someone special
God gives you the raw material to
build upon --- but HE won’t give you -----
-- a computer – a chain saw – or a car
WHY -- because HE gave you – a
mind – so that you can build - or improve
26. upon
What you receive in your
visions from God --- you take -- & you
build upon it – & build upon it - on your
most holy faith
COME ON - Were Getting Out Of
The Pit
-- You know - People have this vain
ideal – that what you drive – or – what
you live in – or – all that you own – is
what makes you – what you are
But I tell you – that God don’t care –
about all that you’ve acquired -- that’s
your choice in life -
- What God really cares about – is if
27. you’re building up yourself – on your
most holy faith
-- God will give you the revelation –
but he’ll expect YOU – to take it from
there.
For if you live your life for satan – he’s
the one – who will decide your reward ----
but if you live your life for Jesus – HE will
decide your reward - & prosper you
-- because it’s only - your heavenly
father – who can bless - & rescue you -
from all - of your PIT FALLS IN LIFE ---
--- that will try & keep you --from all – of
your hopes & dreams.
28. - You will become – while living for
the King - a walking memorial - to
everyone – that you come in contact with
- of how the miraculous, workings - of
Almighty God – can take you from one
way of life - & transport you – into a life
– that you could only - dream about.
--- WHY - because you are the person
– who decided to lay your burdens down
– at the feet of Jesus
- & put aside ---- ALL of your own –
IDEOLOGICAL IDEALS
– that only portrayed -- & displayed
you ----- with a FALSE IDENTITIE -----
29. which hid you - from the person - that
you really are ----- & from the person –
that you truly - can become.
It’s only when You & Jesus ---- become
ONE ------- & begin harmonizing ---- or
begin working together --- in one mind &
in one accord
that you begin to know --- beyond a
shadow of a doubt -- that it’s YOU’RE
FAITH
–- that has allowed THE LORD ----- to
transform you –-- into who - & what --
you really have become.
– And now - your suddenly beginning -
30. to feel good in your heart ----- just
knowing --- that your later reign–-- is
going to be greater – than your former
reign
-- & that you are now going to portray
to the world ---- everything --- that HE is -
-- & means to you.
The Bible says –--- that ( HE will turn,
your ashes - into beauty ).
Come on --- if you’re tired - of living
in the PIT ----- or living with a ---- SELF
CONTROLLING INFLUENCE ---
–- that’s ruling over all of your affairs
---- & is keeping you from the light of
reality
31. -- well the time is now ---- for a
renewing – for a brand new way of life ---
- a life where you’re not alone – but are
keeping company - with the Lord.
The Lord is the true TRANSFORMER –
because HE can transform anything - into
something
He can take something that’s dead - &
make it live again ----- Faith, is the
channel that God works through - &
Fear, is the channel that the devil works
through
The bible tells us --- that a rebellious
man – is unstable in all of his ways ------
& that rebellion - is as the sin of
32. witchcraft
Isaiah – 65) & 2) - speaks of the Lord
as saying ------ I have spread out my
hands – all the day long – unto a
rebellious people –- which walketh in a
way –- that is not good –-- after their own
thoughts.
A person is frightfully capable ----- of
influencing – there ownselves –----- by
making themselves to believe –--- that
being burdened down -
with - sorrow – pain – fear –
uncontrollable urges – or – demonic
influences --- is an o.k. life to live
33. ---- & this is all because -- something
or someone ---- has made them to believe
–--- that’s it’s all just part --- of being a
child of God
Well guess what --- It’s not !! ------
Always remember ---- THAT WE ARE ---
- WHAT MOTAVATES THE WORLD
----& WE ARE --- the ones -- who set
the standards of life --- for those who are
lost -- to live by.
WE are NOT --- PIT DWELLERS ----
WE are advocates of freedom ------ we are
here - -- to affirm – to declare – to assert –
to confirm --- & to ratify
34. --- that we have overcome ----- that we
have been purged - & refined ----- in the
fire of Gods righteousness ---- & made to
be -- more precious than Gold.
We all know - that a person can
become vexed -- with divers spirits - from
time to time ---- but that doesn’t mean –
that they have to live with them – all the
time.
So how can a person move out ----
from of a life - of darkness & moral
depravity --- & into the light of God
–-- if they’re happy & content in
thinking --- that the PIT - that there
wallowing in –--- is where there suppose
35. to be.
Why do some people seem so hell bent
------- on pushing God away ----- when all
he wants to do ---- is give them a clear
perception --- of a life --- that is filled -
with a purpose --- & true fulfillment.
Why stay blinded & defiled ----- by a
spirit --- of Spiteful Unreasoning ----- that
makes you -- to doubt & to worry ---
about everything & everybody
-- when all you have to do --- is trade
in all of those Mental Disturbances ---- for
a Godly mind --- that is clear & clean ----
& sheltered - from ALL unrest.
36. We need to serve the Lord - by the
solid principles - of HIS word.
We should be possessed by God ----
instead of being possessed --- by ungodly -
corruptible influences.
We need to become confidant again -
by spending more time with Jesus ----
instead of wasting time --- with Joseph’s
brothers.
- For its only Jesus ---- who can help
you a person ---- to -- perceive ---- to
realize - & to acknowledge the fact
– that all of your bottled up emotions –
that are driving you down -- into a pit – of
37. spiritual poverty ------ isn’t where you –
or anyone -- should be in life.
- A prudent person of God – is a
person who allows wisdom --- to be
applied -- to the practical matters of their
life.
Meaning – that they will take good
advice – & hold it in their heart -
concealing it & guarding it - from all evil
& ignorance of the flesh.
And for someone to obtain a
prudent heart ------ will require -- a
dramatic change ----- that can only be
brought about --- by the mighty
transforming - hand of God -- & Nothing
38. Else.
If you want to do something – do it
right --- For this is a change - that is a
powerful --& supernatural
transformation ----- that can only be
administered – by God.
For he will inject into you ---- the word
of life --- that will transform you ---- into
a powerful ---- & self productive
individual
– this transformation --- will take you -
- from death to life –-- from negative to
positive ---- before you can even realize ---
- what has even happened.
39. You see -- Joseph knew in his heart
– that there was defiantly --- more for him
to have ------ yet his brothers --- just
couldn’t stand the ideal –-- that he could
visualize it --- that he could see it.
But God wants you --- to visualize & to
know –---- that all that’s his –- is yours –--
- yet who will believe HIM –---- for
Joseph might have been sold into Egypt –
but he was bought back - by faith
Jesus
has paid the ultimate price for our liberty
& salvation ---- & HE has paid for it –
with HIS blood.
The bible
says - that the Lord exalted Joseph – over
40. all of Egypt ---- & the same God – that
showed favor to Joseph – is showing favor
to his people right now --- so who here – is
going to let HIM
We as Gods
people - want to walk away from change -
we want to push away - & resist change
-- yet little do
we know – that were only fighting against
--- an all knowing God ----- who is
wanting to exalt us - over all of our
enemies --- & the world.
Yet it
scares us – because we don’t stop to
realize --- that God uses change ---- to put
us & to keep us
--
41. where we can not only bless others – but
where all of HIS blessings - are at our
very disposal .
If you’re stuck in the pit – & the devil
--- is keeping you from the promises of
God – you need the guidance of the (H.G.
in your life.
– You need to STAND STILL & SEE -
-- THAT THE LORD IS GOOD -------
you need to stand still --- & watch the
Lord – as HE --- OPENS THE RED SEA
---- FOR YOU TO CROSS OVER
Man is incapable --- without Gods
divine intervention --- of seeing what &
where he is in need of
42. That’s why the bible says ----- For
there’s a way - that seemeth right --- unto
man – but the end thereof – is death.
And the bible also says --- that when
all the land of Egypt - was famished – the
people cried to pharaoh for bread - &
pharaoh said -- unto all the Egyptians –--
go unto Joseph ----- & what he sayeth to
you – you do.
And the devil says --- And when the
lost of the world – is famished with
sorrow – they cried to pharaoh for bread
- & their god laughed & said – go to Jesus
- & what HE sayeth to do – you DO.
43. There’s you have the difference ---- the
pit is only dark – to those without the
light
--but to all of the Josephs – but to all
the saved ------ the light will always shine
in darkness ---- & God will turn around –
--- what the enemy has tried to spoil --- &
take away
---- & HE will make it – to turn out
good ---- for those who dare ---- to live in
fear – or - to believe - in Him.
Because Gods people --- were afraid of
going around their problems ---- HE sent
them THROUGH --- THE RED SEA ----
HE SENT THEM THROUGH ---
THERE FEAR.
44. If you’re between the Egyptian army -
-- & the Red Sea ---- & your asking ---
Lord - what should I do ----- HE’s going
to answer --- GO THROUGH ----- GO
FORWARD.
HE will help you -- every step of the
way ---- & HE will keep you on the right
pathway --- which is the pathway ---- that
a person --- will only dream about.
While In the pursuit of our saviors
help ---- we WILL BE --- sidetracked ---
by our way of thinking --- our own
familiar surroundings ---- our own kind
of circumstances ---- & our own –
expected shortcomings.
45. But just because -- you haven’t done
anything before ---- doesn’t mean it’s
going to be a bad thing.
Don’t decide to stay where you’re at –
because you’re afraid of the unknown –
Don’t lose sight of your true destiny ----
because your comfortable -- with where
you’re at now
But RECONCILE in your mind --- &
tell yourself --- I’m going to be --- all that
I can be
& with the anointed power of God’s
word - & presence, ---- you are going to
accomplish ----- here & now ----- through
your faith
46. – the victory that is needed – in order
to pull yourself out of the darkness - &
into the light.
You’re going to leave from here - &
you’re going to go back home ---- with a
greater enthusiasm for life ----- along with
a greater sense of self assurance & self
worth.
-
And with the Lords help – you’re going to
be able to shout it out --- that you have
been transformed –--- BY THE
RENEWING OF YOUR MIND.
Going from being a person weighted
down - with trash & excuses –--- to a
47. brand new person
---- who has received the spirit of
Joseph ---- & has become victorious ----
through Christ Jesus – our Lord &
savior.
We can see - that when everything was
all finished for Joseph in the end --- that
he was made ruler ---- over all of his
enemies
- & had also -- conquered all of his
dreams --- which was everything – that
had mattered the most to him.
We may resist change --- & we may
struggle & fight - against the harsh
48. realities of change
-- but stop long enough to realize ---
that it’s change ----that will lead us -- to
our perfection
& it’s CHANGE ----- that comes about
in our lives ---- because our savior –--
see’s the desire ---- that we are carrying –
which pushes us --- & creates in us --- a
true purpose - for living.
Have you ever watched a person try &
accomplish something - yet - not finish it.
---You yourself felt --- that they really
could have of achieved - what they were
striving after -- & that they could of done
49. better - at what they had set out to do.
---Yet,along with their ideals, - & with
their outlook on life in general, --- they
only seemed, - to be always fighting
against, - or pushing away from, the goal
that they had set for themselves.
--- And yet, for some strange reason,
they squandered up, - or they wasted, -
every ounce of help, - that God has sent
their way.
--- Tonight I tell you, - I knew a
person, that fit this picture to the (t), - &
friend, - you’re looking right at him now.
---- I for some reason or another, -
50. would always think, in my poor little pea-
knuckle head, -- that I was capable of
accomplishing anything.
-- And I felt, - that if I would allow,
anyone to help me, -- they would only
slow me down, -- or, -- just turn all of my
hard worked efforts, -- into their own
work -- & that my friend, - I wanted no
part of.
You see, - I hadn’t quite figured out, -
that God worked that way in a person’s
life, - & what it all boiled up too was, - I
hadn’t quiet yet lined up with, his
purpose, & his will.
------ You can say that I was what the
51. bible described in - (John) as, --- ( An
Impenitent Man ) which is, - A man,
without a change of mind, - a man with a
stubborn will.
Like a dog that runs out in front of
traffic, - so do the blind.
- Does this sound familiar? --- Have
you ever begun a work, - that once you’ve
started it, - you wanted it to turn out
perfect, -- so in rebellion, -- you wouldn’t
take anyone else’s advise, -- or, -- allow
anyone else, to help you.
The bible says that, - ( the human
heart, is the most deceitful, above all
things ) - & that ( rebellion, - is as the sin
of witchcraft ).
52. We’ve got to pull ourselves from the
pit in which we’ve fallen, - & allow God to
move us, - into a land, that is filled with
milk & honey.
We need to open our heart up to Jesus
- & allow him, to help us.
- You know yourselves, -- that man has
always been the way that he is now. –
Ever since the dawn of Man, -- as with
Cain & Able, -- man has always thought
in his own mind, - that it was his way, or,
the by-way, - & that nothing else would
work, -- or – satisfy him.
-------- In the book of (Hebrews) –
53. this is known as ( The Root Of Bitterness
)—it’s a sour spirit that defiles a man, &
gives him a bitter outlook, not only
toward himself, - but toward life also.
You see, --- man, is constantly looking
for ways to move forward in his life. ---
He is always looking, - for ways to better
him, - or, - herself.
But before anyone can be used of God,
- & be promoted to a higher calling in life,
- they must first, - need to know what it’s
like to be, - pushed & shoved, - trampled
underfoot – slandered, & shamed, - &
then they will be strong enough to say,
( Though he slay me, yet will I serve
him).
54. When a person’s will, - has given up -
& lost respect for God’s word, - he no
longer lines up with Gods purpose, for his
or her life.
- And when respect is lost for God &
one’s self, - this becomes procrastination
– which is a very dangerous way of
thinking.
- For it’s when a person tells there self, - -
- oh I’m not worried, - or – oh, I’ll think
about doing it tomorrow – is when
suddenly - the carnality of man -begins to
have rule over God.
And the scary outcome about putting
God off, - is that nobody, is guaranteed
55. tomorrow.
( Isaiah ) 2) & 5) --- O house of Jacob –
come ye - & let us walk in the light of the
Lord.
Just this one simple verse – should tell
anyone – that life lived - & being directed,
by the light of God – is far more better, -
than living hopeless - & in darkness.
Yet still, - some seem to refrain &
remain, --- frustrated & disappointed in
trying, - & they push aside, the help of
God.
-- And because they allow this stubborn &
unreasonable spirit to reign over them, ---
56. they automatically, - expect & allow, -
failure to settle in upon them, & steal
them of their victory.
And to think that all a person needs to
do, - is just simply allow God, - to give
them power – over that spirit of
deception.
- Can you see how important it is, - to
have the Holy Ghost working inside you,
& for you
So again in ( Heb )—it tells us that, (
After Abraham had Patiently Endured,-
he did, obtain the promise ).
Abraham had faith in God, --- &
57. because he believed, - the Lord blessed all
that he had, - & made him the father of
many nations.
Life is too short, - to stay down &
dormant in Joseph’s pit, - for God has so
much more to offer his children.
We need to do as Proverbs says ), - & (
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, &
do not depend upon your own
understanding, -seek his will in all you do,
& he will show you which path to take ).
Palms 25 says ), - ( Show me the right
path, O Lord, point out the road for me to
follow ).
58. The time is now, - to do something about
your situation, - don’t put it off any
longer, - because failure for many today,
is only causing them to believe - that life
isn’t all cracked up to be what they
expected.
And this is causing everyone, - along
with the leaders of our nation - to except,
second best.
Let’s stop deceiving ourselves, - let’s
stop being our own worst enemy -
believing that our lives are barren, - dead,
& meaningless.
Let us not forget, --- that it’s God
himself, who put the desire, to know &
59. grow within us.
--- And the reason that he did, - is
because he wants his people, --- to move
forward with a purpose in life.
-- In (1st
Kings) – it tells us that Solomon
said, - ( I Purpose, - to build a house, unto
the name of the Lord, my God).
Solomon built God a house – not only
because of the love he had for his God -
but for the need of spiritual fulfill in his
life, - he needed some gratification, - some
self appreciation.
How many of us fill this way some
times – Gods power which he has given to
60. his people, - is beyond our
comprehension, - we’re not able to grasp
what we have with the Holy Ghost.
Yet, his immeasurable love & life
sustaining power, – works alongside our
strong desire to achieve, - for it’s his gift
to us, - that we reap bountifully, in this
life.
– We have to have faith to believe that
what he has promised – he will perform.
The bible says - that Josephs brothers
told one another when they saw him
drawing near, was ( Behold, the dreamer
cometh ).
61. I would tell anyone with a dream - to
dream on – for the bible says that – (
without a dream, man will perish ) – ( and
that your young men will dream dreams.)
Joseph may have been a dreamer, -
but it was his dreams, - that allowed the
Lord, to accomplish what he wanted
done, - in a time when Gods people,
needed his intervention & guidance, the
most.
Solomon had a dream - & it was to
build a tabernacle for God, - a dream his
dad David had burning inside of him to
do – it was a dream that the Lord, didn’t
allow him to do.
62. Always be sure and pray – seek the
face of God – so that he can make your
calling sure – don’t just presume - or run
into it unprepared – but know beyond a
shadow of a doubt - that what you’re
seeking after, – is Gods will for your life.
God, - not only wants us to know
where were going, – but he also wants us
to feel worthy of, - what our goals are in
life are.
- He wants us to always show ourselves
- to be worthy of the calling, - that he has
placed in & on us.
( psalms ) 40) 1 thru 3 - says it like this
--- ( I waited patiently for the lord – & he
63. turned to me, & he heard my cry – he
lifted me out of the mud & mire – he set
my feet on a rock - & he gave me a firm
place to stand – he put a new song in my
mouth – & a hymn of power to, my God –
many will see & fear - & will put their
trust in the Lord.
We can hear life changing faith, just
radiating from out of these words,
- YET, --- THERE ARE PEOPLE
NOW – AT THIS VERY MOMENT -
EXHAHSTING ALL OF THEIR
EFFORTS, -- & ARE GETTING,
NOWHERE.
– THEY ARE FALLING INTO THE
64. PIT OF BROKEN DREAMS &
PROMISES, --- A PIT, THAT GOD ALL
MIGHTY, - HAS WARNED AGIANST
IN HIS WORD, - TIME & TIME AGAIN
– I’M HEAR TO WARN YOU - BE NOT
DECIEVED, - BE NOT DECIEVED - -
( FOR THAT WHICH A MAN
SOWETH, - THAT SHALL HE ALSO
REAP.
Growing up, - I wanted to be a lot of
things, -- and like everybody else, -- as life
went on, -- I somehow managed, --
through many ups & downs, -- too
eventually accomplish, or achieve, --- a
few of my hopes, -- dreams, -- and desires.
But at times, - I would come to find
65. out the hard way, -- that though I could
accomplish certain things, -- they weren’t
always; --- want God wanted for my life.
So I had to learn quickly, -- that there
were things that weren’t fitted - &
designed for me - & that there were hopes
& dreams, - that weren’t mine to covet, --
but belonged, - to someone else.
Our calling with God, - works in the same
manner. --- There are times, -- that we may
find ourselves, -- ( barking up the wrong tree)
-- or traveling down - the wrong path in life.
-- But with sincere prayer, --- & faith in
the guiding light, of our Lord Jesus Christ, --
-we may quickly come to find out, -- that we
have exhausted, -- all of our efforts, -- due to -
66. being misled, or - by pursuing a false calling.
But brothers & sisters - it’s when we
finally come to find, -- exactly what it is that
we are really suppose to be doing, -- that’s
the time that it becomes ( Katie bar the door.
--- For as Gods Providence, -- combined
with our Prudence - in the Holy Ghost, --
begins to take hold of our zeal, -- and then
starts a burning, -- that’s when, - everything
negative – is pushed out our way.
And then finally, - after beating down the
devil – the father all lies –at his own game,
- we instantly come to realize – that satan,
- nor any person, - can take away, - what God
has anointed us with.
I tell you that no one – can take you to
67. where you haven’t been – unless they have
been there themselves.
But then on the other hand, -- there will
be these poor unregenerate souls, -- who will
fight all of their lives, -- desperately straining
& prying, - with all of their might, -- to open
doors, -- that just will not open.
- They are those, - who day after day, --
become more & more frustrated, -- with
being all tangled up, - in these emotional, - &
spirit wrenching obstacles, - which
eventually, -- just tear apart & kill - all of
their hopes & dreams.
ISAIAH 51) & 1) says –( Hearken to me –
ye that follow after righteousness – ye that
seek the Lord – look unto the rock whence ye
are hewn – and to the hole of the pit – whence
68. ye are digging. )
It’s saying – -------look to the word of God
( THE ROCK OF YOUR SALVATION ) --- -
- ( FOR GOD HAS MADE YOU FROM -
THE PATTERN – IN WHICH IT
DESCRIBES HIM – WHICH IS - PERFECT
& WHOLE.
And yet look - at all of the pain & the
abuse, - that a person will put themselves
through, -- before learning - that God has the
perfect pattern & plan – for achieving the
best way of life – that anyone could ever live.
A complete & rewarding way of life – a
life that can easily be seen, -- by even the least
discerned, -- and yet, - they only push Jesus
aside – and remain grounded, & tied down.
69. The majorities - of the people today – are
Languishing - in the pit falls of life & regret –
waiting for something – which they will never
receive – without Jesus.
They are being held back & mislead – kept
away - from all of their life’s - hopes
&dreams.
But I’m here to tell you now – that all of
Gods promises are here & available – right
now, - & there ready to begin working, - for
you.
If your saved, - & filled with the Holy
Ghost - All you need to do, - is to activate the
power that’s within you – by simply lifting up
your hands to God, - & loving him with heart
giving praise.
70. – Listen to this carefully now- ( the world
has sowed their seed - & has not reaped their
harvest – but you, - you are going to reap -
what the world has left to die - & will put
there dying harvest - to your own use.
God will turn their disappointments –
into your victory.
They who are outside the camp - don’t
have Gods power, - like you do - to be able to
turn things around, - or too, - speak things
into existence – with just the spoken word of
faith.
Tell somebody – get ready – come on, -
get ready – because Gods intervening love, -
is beginning to flow toward your faith.
We all have to make decisions, -- but why
71. make them, - with a mind that is all clogged
up - & littered with trash, -- having a mind
with only a shallow stream of direction, - &
blurred decisions, - clogging up the flow.
A person that is burdened down with
false dreams & hopes, - will push their loved
ones, - far beyond their reach.
So what is it – that these way ward souls
do, -- in order to keep themselves - from
fading away - in life’s pit of broken dreams.
- I ask, - what is there to do - before
falling so deep, -- that no one – is able to even
reach them, - & pull them out to safety.
Thank you Jesus – I say, thank you Jesus
- because there is a way – a bright and
shining way, - & it’s found in a Holy Ghost
72. filled, - Apostolic Church, -- where there’s a
tongue talking preacher behind the pulpit, ---
who can use the word of God, -- to put the
mirror of conviction to a soul & spirit - & in
turn – watch that person begin producing, -
life giving faith.
Come on, - GET OUT OF THE PIT.
GOD WANTS YOU TO HAVE LIFE, -
& TO HAVE IT, - MORE ABONDATLY.
Everybody - should want to see clearly
enough - & be able to come to an
understanding – with God & with
themselves, --- & to realize -- that HIS
blessings, are not just for some, ---but for
everybody.
Everyone, - needs a breakthrough in their
73. life, -- & the only power that can pull a
person to safety, - is the giver of fulfillment
himself - Jesus Christ.
For he will give you beauty for ashes – &
will promote you, - & take you places, -
you’ve only dreamed about.
– & because you have decided – to be
born again – he will take what lies dormant –
or dead in you - & give life back to it.
– Why? - cause If you abide in him - as the
scripture say-eth – out of your body shall
flow, rivers of living water
- it’s time to move higher – it’s time to fly
with the eagles.
You are no longer going to fight spiritual
74. battles – with fleshly intentions – because
what you have now, – is a made up mind.
God wants his people to know, -- that
what satan has stolen, -- he must return, --
because God demands, -- that there be a
restoration – in the lives, - of his people.
The difference in a person’s life today, -
& their new way of living life tomorrow, -- is
going to be according - to how far their faith
in God, - will take them.
It’s going to be, -- How they believe, --
what they believe, -- And how there now
seeing things.
Start taking, - the necessary steps that it
takes - to build upon, -- the steps needed to
grow & feel vigilant again - & become
75. stronger in your faith.
This is a simple process - First, - you must
Pray, -- and then remind yourself, of who you
are, -- always keeping in mind, --- that you
are, -- one of the numbered, -- one of the
chosen, -- & one of the redeemed.
You must Allow your faith, -- to help you
to visualize in your mind, -- that there are no
boundaries with God, -- & that no one can
limit your faith, -- but your enemies - &
yourself.
As I’m preaching to you at this very
moment -- your faith is beginning to take root
& grow, ---- WHY, -- because faith cometh by
hearing, & hearing by the word of God. --- &
( How can one hear, lest there be a preacher
).
76. The fact of the matter is, -- if you don’t
believe that God’s word is all powerful, --
your faith, - & your works, - will fail you.
For if you don’t believe in the word of
God, -- your faith is dead.
Read & study ( James ) the ( 2nd
Chap.).
And read where the bible also says - that
( a double minded man is unstable in all his
ways ), -- and that ( rebellion, is as the spirit
of witchcraft ).
So there’s your definition, - of ( a faithless
soul; -- & to add to it, - you can say that there
someone who is outside of God – a person
with hopes & desires, - yet not having the
power, - nor the determination, - to go
forward.
- A person who wants to better themselves, -
77. but doesn’t have the faith, nor the
determination to reach out for Gods help--- is
a person with a hopeless mission, in life.
- A person without, - a spiritual revelation
- of how to live life to it’s fullness, – is only
capable of seeing - where they are at now in
their present state - & what or where ever
that place is – is likely where, they are going
to remain – always looking up out of their
pit, - & going nowhere.
Now stay with me, - & let’s not become
confused, --- because what I’m trying my best
to preach to you about, - is HOW NOT – to
allow yourself - to ( fall into a hopeless pit ) -
& in turn, ( Exhaust All of your hard
working Efforts, - And Get No Where in life.
Know & understand, -- that God is not
78. moved by your need, -- but what he’s moved
by, -- is your faith.
So, if you’re trying to get somewhere in
life, -- start by, - speaking positively, -- &
speaking with an assurance, -- bringing your
needs before the Lord, -- and knowing, -
beyond a shadow of a doubt, -- that once
you’ve made your request known to him, --
that HE will supply - all of your needs –
according to his riches in glory.
Don’t put any borders on your faith, --
because you can only be as big in God, -- as
your belief in him is.
-- For with The Lord, -- according to your
faith, - there can be, - no limitations.
And please, - if you don’t receive what
you’ve asked for the first time, -- ask again as
79. Paul did, -- & if there’s still no response, --
just accept the fact - that you’ve asked a
miss, -- & just keep on a living the good life of
faith.
There are a lot of people all over this
world in need, --- yet we ask ourselves, -- why
haven’t they received.
-- Well, - they haven’t yet received, --
because, - they just quiet haven’t touched the
helm of his garment yet.
But tonight, - we have believed, -- & we
have discharged & proclaimed with faith, --
& through praise & worship, -- that we all
can become a Joseph.
And that we’re all going to expect
something in faith, right now from our God.
80. Faith commands God, -- it moves HIM to
respond, - telling everyone to receive, --
receive by the faith you have, in the Holy
Ghost.
I’m advising everyone here right now, --
That if you’re going to listen to anybody, --
PLEASE, -- listen to God, --- for he will never
fail you – nor, will he forsake you – be alert
& listening – for he’s knocking on your
hearts door right now.
As of right now, -- & from this moment
forth - were going to put on the wings of
eagles, & fly to another state of being.
--- All losses, are going to stop as of now, -
- and all blessings, -- are going to go forth, -
are you ready to receive your promise,
81. --- Do you believe tonight?
--- Come on saints of God – let’s
remember that he’s is in the business of
fixing all that’s broken.
He can & he will, -- fix all the unseen
things of man, --- everything Physical, --
everything Mental, -- & all things Spiritual, --
-All things, that aren’t working correctly, --
he CAN fix.
God has a restoration working within you
now, -- & -- he’s giving you back, -- what the
Canker worm, -- has destroyed.
He CAN, & he is, -- pulling you out of
that pit, -- can you feel Gods love
surrounding you.
82. There are enough vices out in this world
today, -- to bind & hold someone captive &
stagnate, -- keeping them hopeless, -- lost, --
&-- in despair, -- for the remainder, of their
life.
This is why we should always remember,
that happiness, - is in the consequences, - of
our efforts, --- & that all efforts made
without God, -- can be harmful, or damaging.
Depression, -- loneliness, & death, -- can
all be part of a life, that’s harboring a false
calling.
-- But praise be to God, -- that it doesn’t
have to be this way, -- for HE has, made a
way of escape, -- through the Holy Ghost.
The Lord tells us in ( Duet. ) 27) & 3) ---
83. ( To go & posses the land that is flowing
with milk & honey ). --- Go out & posses
what is yours, --- AGAIN, -- TAKE BACK--
WHAT IS YOURS, - NOW !!
The bible tells us to ( Seek Out Our
Calling With Trembling & Fear ) --- So go &
conquer, -- go out & fight the good fight of
faith, --- making sure, -- that what you’re
after, --is Gods will for your life, -- so that in
doing so, - you’re fight will be a winning
battle, - & - not a battle lost.
But thanks be to God, - that there can be -
a life worth living, --- a life were all of our
efforts are met with confidence & assurance,
-- a life that can be worth sharing with
others, -- & a life with an eternal promise
attached to it.
84. Is there anyone here tonight – who would
like prayer, - don’t allow fear - or – what
others may think stop you – come & receive
your freedom.
You’re now ready to move forward, --- and
you’re ready to start your new life, -- ready
to begin fighting for yourself, - & to fight that
good fight of faith – thank you Jesus.
