HOLY SPIRIT AND FIRE 5-23-21  VIDEO

Pentecost to those in the Jewish faith is a holy celebration. It occurs 50 days after Passover. It is the feast that celebrates the giving of the Torah, and it  celebrates the harvest.  It is also the time when God would decide their financial blessing for the rest of the year. It was to last 30 days after pentecost.  God brought Israel out of Egypt at passover but 50 days later God calls them His people. Christians celebrate Pentecost as the birthday of the church and the power of the Holy Spirit as promised by Jesus coming to the apostles and the people who were hearing what was happening in the upper room He call us His people now and causes our finances to be bleed through Jesus. In the Old Testament God spread  over the tabernacle with fire. Fire represents the Holy Spirit now. The fiery presence provided light and guidance in the old testament but in the New Testament God guides and comforts us with the Holy Spirit in our bodies. We become the fiery tabernacle or the temple of the Holy Spirit overlaid with fire. Remember you have received the full measure of the Holy Spirit. As you pour yourself out, there’s always a refreshment of more.

ACTS 2:1-4 On the day Pentecost was being fulfilled, all the disciples were gathered in one place.

² Suddenly they heard the sound of a violent blast of windrushing into the housefrom out of the heavenly realm. The roar of the wind was so overpowering it was all anyone could bear!

³ Then all at once a pillar of fire appeared before their eyes. It separated into tongues of fire that engulfedeach one of them.

⁴ They were all filled and equippedwith the Holy Spirit and were inspiredto speak in tongues—empowered by the Spirit to speak in languages they had never learned! TPT

ACTS 2:7-12 Bewildered, they said to one another, “Aren’t these all Galileans? ⁸ So how is it that we hear them speaking in our own languages?

⁹ We are northeastern Iranians, northwestern Iranians, Elamites, and those from Mesopotamia, Judea, east central Turkey, the coastal areas of the Black Sea, Asia,

¹⁰ north central Turkey, southern Turkey, Egypt, Libyans who are neighbors of Cyrene, visitors from all over the Roman Empire, both Jews and converts to Judaism, Cretans and Arabs.

ACTS 2:14-18 Peter stood up with the eleven apostlesand shoutedto the crowd. “Listen carefully, my fellow Jewsand residents of Jerusalem. You need to clearly understand what’s happening here.

¹⁶ This is the fulfillment of what was prophesied through the prophet Joel, for God says:

¹⁷ ‘This is what I will do in the last days—I will pour outmy Spirit on everybody and cause your sons and daughters to prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will experience dreams from God.

³³ “Then God exalted him to his right hand upon the throne of highest honor. And the Father gave him the authority to send the promised Holy Spirit, which is being poured outupon us today. This is what you’re seeing and hearing!

³⁴ “David wasn’t the one who ascended into heaven, but the one who prophesied: ‘Yahwehsaid to my Lord,  I honor you by enthroning you beside me,
³⁵ until I make your enemies a footstool beneath your feet.’

³⁶ “Now everyone in Israelcan know for certainthat Jesus, whom you crucified, is the one God has madeboth Lordand the Messiah.”  TPT

Pentecost to the Jews was the six day of creation. It represents the leading of the Jewish people out of the wilderness into the promised land and into a place of rest.

HEB 4:6-10 Those who first heard the good news of deliverance failed to enter into that realm of faith’s rest because of their unbelieving hearts. Yet the fact remains that we still have the opportunity to enter into the faith-rest life and experience the fulfillment of the promise!

⁷ For God still has ordained a day for us to enter into called “Today.” For it was long afterwards that God repeated it in David’s words, “If only today you would listen to his voice and do not harden your hearts!”

⁸ Now if this promise of “rest” was fulfilled when Joshua brought the people into the land, God wouldn’t have spoken later of another “rest” yet to come.

¹⁰ As we enter into God’s faith-rest life we cease from our own works, just as God celebrates his finished works and rests in them. TPT

BREAKTHROUGH 5-16-21  VIDEO autism healed 2

The theme of breakthrough appears everywhere in the world but one of the names of our God is “breakthrough“. He breaks us out of bondage and sickness and sin. He also breaks us out to receive his promises. God‘s love for us brings Him on the scene. When we need Him the most the God of the breakthrough is  in our lives with the result of us moving in both influence and favor. Our God brings breakthrough healing for our bodies when we feel pain and hopelessness.

ENCOUNTERING GOD 5-14-21  VIDEO LARRY

Encounter is to have a face-to-face meeting, to contact, to experience. The Bible is full of many places where God encountered mankind. One encounter with Him will change everything. God is not a God of the dead but a God of the living. During the time of Jesus‘ transfiguration they saw him as who he really was and how he really looks. Experience finding God when we seek God we encounter Him because He wants to be seen. When we encounter God we encounter love because God is love.

Eph 5:10 And try to learn [in your experience] what is pleasing to the Lord [let your lives be constant proofs of what is most acceptable to Him]. AMP

Ex 3:2 The Angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush; and he looked, and behold, the bush burned with fire, yet was not consumed. 

3 And Moses said, I will now turn aside and see this great sight, why the bush is not burned. 

4 And when the Lord saw that he turned aside to see, God called to him out of the midst of the bush and said, Moses, Moses! And he said, Here am I. 

5 God said, Do not come near; put your shoes off your feet, for the place on which you stand is holy ground. 

6 Also He said, I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look at God.   AMP

ISA 6:1-3  In the year that King Uzziah died, I clearly saw the Lord. He was seated on his exalted throne, towering high above me. His long, flowing robe of splendor spread throughout the temple.

² Standing above him were the angels of flaming fire, each with six wings: with two wings they covered their faces in reverence, with two wings they covered their feet, and with two wings they flew.

³ And one called out to another, saying:  “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Commander of Angel Armies! The whole earth is filled with his glory!”  TPT

ISA 6:5-8 Then I stammered and said, “Woe is me! I’m destroyed—doomed as a sinful man! For my words are tainted and I live among people who talk the same way. King Yahweh, Commander of Angel Armies! My eyes have gazed upon him!”

⁶ Then out of the smoke, one of the angels of fire flew to me. He had in his hands a burning coal he had taken from the altar with tongs.

 ⁷ He touched my lips with it and said, “See? The burning coal from the altar has touched your lips. Your guilt is taken away; your sin is blotted out.”

⁸ Then I heard the Lord saying, “Whom should I send to my people? Who will go to represent us?” I spoke up and said, “I will be the one. Send me.” TPT

26 Then He said, Let Me go, for day is breaking. But [Jacob] said, I will not let You go unless You declare a blessing upon me. 

27 [The Man] asked him, What is your name? And [in shock of realization, whispering] he said, Jacob [supplanter, schemer, trickster, swindler]! 

28 And He said, Your name shall be called no more Jacob [supplanter], but Israel [contender with God]; for you have contended and have power with God and with men and have prevailed.

WHAT WILL IT TAKE  5-9-29  VIDEO LOVE HOPE AND FAITH

What will it take for us to walk in our destiny? To receive our healing? For us to see the next generation of our family walking their inheritance. What will it take for us to get out of debt? What will it take for us to move in the power of the Holy Spirit? What will it take for us to see ourselves as God sees us? What will it take to be set free from all bondage?

RIGHTEOUSNESS  RO 1:17 Herein lies the secret of the power of the Gospel; there is no good news in it until the righteousness of God  is revealed! The dynamic of the gospel is the revelation of God’s faith as the only valid basis for our belief. The prophets wrote in advance about the fact that God believes that righteousness  reveals the life of our design. “Righteousness by his (God’s) faith defines life.” MIRROR

GAL 3:11 Habakkuk confirms conclusively that righteousness by God’s faith is the only basis to life; this terminates any possible justification before God based on moral behavior.  

12  Law and faith have nothing in common! Law measures man’s doing and experience as defining his life.  MIRROR

▼▼▼

Gal 3:11 The obvious impossibility of carrying out such a moral program should make it plain that no one can sustain a relationship with God that way. The person who lives in right relationship with God does it by embracing what God arranges for him. Doing things for God is the opposite of entering into what God does for you. Habakkuk had it right: “The person who believes God, is set right by God — and that’s the real life.”

12 Rule-keeping does not naturally evolve into living by faith, but only perpetuates itself in more and more rule-keeping, a fact observed in Scripture: ”  MSG

Rom 3:25 God sacrificed Jesus on the altar of the world to clear that world of sin. Having faith in him sets us in the clear. God decided on this course of action in full view of the public — to set the world in the clear with himself through the sacrifice of Jesus, finally taking care of the sins he had so patiently endured.

26 This is not only clear, but it’s now — this is current history! God sets things right. He also makes it possible for us to live in his rightness.

27 So where does that leave our proud Jewish insider claims and counterclaims? Canceled? Yes, canceled. What we’ve learned is this: God does not respond to what we do; we respond to what God does.

28 We’ve finally figured it out. Our lives get in step with God and all others by letting him set the pace, not by proudly or anxiously trying to run the parade.  MSG

FAITH RO 4:16 The promise depends on faith so that it can be experienced as a grace-gift, and now it extends to all the descendants of Abraham. This promise is not only meant for those who obey the law, but also to those who enter into the faith of Abraham, the father of us all.  TPT

RO 4:20 While he had every reason to doubt the promise, he did not hesitate for a moment but instead empowered by faith confidence, he continued to communicate God’s opinion.

2 People of previous generations received the testimony of their hope in faith. It was faith that made their hope tangible

THE POWER OF BLESSING  4-30-21  VIDEO BLESSED SPOKEN WORD

The blessings of God have the power to bring multiplication and increase into our destiny. The Lord wants us to walk in our destiny so we can demonstrate the kingdom by blessing others. God wants us to know the fullness of blessing in every area of our lives. Joseph even though he went through hard times remained blessed by God. The blessings of the Lord cause us to rise to the top, gives us divine appointments, and open doors. Blessings don’t come by saying the right prayer are going to the right church. It is a result of us aligning ourselves with God and his word. Jesus understood how blessings worked. What Jesus had, God multiplied and blessed.
