Bishop Noel Jones - A Word for Your Situation - Classic Moments

[Music] [Applause] [Music] look with me to st. John's Gospel chapter 11 it's it's it's what we call a familiar passage of Scripture in yeah we're know the old preacher would preach he said I'm gonna take you to a familiar passage of Scripture and and oftentimes it's familiar on the surface but then sometimes as you dig into it it seems to get a little bit unfamiliar and then you've got a call for the Holy Spirit to help you to dissect the Word of God but in st. John chapter 11 just to deal with certain aspects of the text of course Lazarus was sick in Bethany and and John is very careful to tell us it's the town of Mary and her sister Martha in verse 2 if you notice he he emphasizes that there is a reciprocal relationship between Jesus and this family because it was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair whose brother Lazarus was sick he is he's an emphasizing and he's making very sure that we understand clearly that this is not just any person but he has a relationship with Mary with Martha and with Lazarus now in threes as therefore his sisters sent unto him and the therefore suggests a conclusion based on the relationship that is evident here the reciprocal relationship that Jesus has with this wonderful little family group we have a right to send to Jesus and the word here is Lord behold he whom thou lovest is sick not only do we have a reciprocal relationship not only are we wonderfully ministering to you as you minister to us but now the brother of ours that we know you love dearly he is now John is trying to tell us that if Jesus should have gone to see anybody he should have hurried down to see Lazarus but Benny says when Jesus heard that he said the sickness is not unto death but for the glory of God that the Son of God might be glorified thereby and John reiterates in five Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus but he can't understand why he would be so slow about responding to a cry from a group of people that they have reciprocal relationship little slow about it we know he's got all power in his hands we know he is a healer when he heard this verse 6 therefore that he was sick he abode two days still in the same ladies where he hasn't moved a ball can you imagine sending word to your pastor Oh how many times have we gotten in trouble because we didn't move right away you know some people is sick you got to make sure you get there before anything happens to them because you got a deal with their family you pastors understand what I'm talking about here we you just better hurry up get over there folk get upset when you don't come it doesn't matter who you send some people are just looking for you you know how that is focus angry church people get mad well I sent for the pastor two days ago and he hasn't showed up yet and then sometimes people go to visit people and then when they're there you sent them to visit their own staff to visit and then they walked right in and asked has the pastor coming to see you yet so after that and seven he says let us go into Judea again and of course he was having trouble in Judea and the disciples weren't too quick on him going there anyway because they were seeking to soulstone him but 11 he says these things said he and after that he said unto them our friend Lazarus sleepeth but I go that I may wake him out of sleep and the disciples couldn't figure that out well if he's sleeping he's doing all that he's it's gonna be okay but Jesus of course was speaking about Lazarus being dead in verse 14 he says Lazarus is dead and I am glad maybe I'm dyslexic but that's what I see Lazarus is stay and I am play now he loves these people they have been waiting for him and he has not moved now he declares that the man is dead and he is made for your sakes that I was not there to the intent she may believe nevertheless let us go unto Him he goes and of course Martha meets him as he comes which is difficult of somebody who's angry who needs to talk to him I gotta meet him on the way I will not let him get in here I respect him too much to talk to him any kind of way in front of these folks so I will meet him along the way I want to know why you didn't come because if you had to be my brother had not died wrong he was going to die I want him to die he's dead and huh my god Lord but I know 22 even now whatsoever thou will ask of God God will give it unto thee that brother shall rise again he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day jesus said unto her I am the resume and the life he that believeth in me though he were dead yet shall he live and whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die believest thou this and of course she she felt a little faith rise and she responded so take me to where you blade him 34 then he said take away the stone then she hollered and they said Lord by this time he stinketh he's been dead for days and he said didn't I tell you if not what is believe thou should I see the glory of God of course he cried at the tomb he wept and then he hollered Lazarus come forth my subject at night is there is word for your situation come forth look at somebody and said there is a word for whatever you're going through you're coming out of it coming out I would like to point out that John's concern is about our concept of Christ if you notice in the book of John he never ever mentions his name when he speaks of himself he speaks of the other the disciple or the disciple whom Jesus loves but he never ever mentions his name it is said in theological circles that John has made very sure that Jesus is always visible and he invisible he makes sure that everything is focused on the Lord and when you read his writings you will see that he's extraordinarily crystal century it's just everything's about Jesus and he presents him in such a manner that he tells us without God's communication to us we are due because if God does not speak to us there is absolutely no way for us to get out of any circumstance that we find ourselves in God has to speak to us and so Jonathan presents the Word of God in three forms he opens with in the beginning was the word and the Word was with God and the Word was and the word here now in st. John 1:1 is our introduction to the word logos the word and locals actually denotes the expression of the default it is not a mere name of an object when you speak of the logos or the word that was with God the word that was God you're speaking about the word that was actually thought or the word that emanated out of the mind of God because before you have a word you have to have a thinker you have to have a thought before you have a world and to have a thought you gotta have a thinker and the thinker is God and the logos is the representation or the expression of the thought that is God rizzoli it is not an object it is an expression of the father once you stay with me now this and this thought is spirit so the logos then is with God the Greek is pressed with not meaning now in company with but the world has a most intimate relationship and communion with God you cannot separate God's Word from his fault you cannot separate God's thought from himself the word its then spirit and so the logos then the word is distinct and super fine night the logos is deity because the logos is gone and the logos is the ability to create its creative power it is the same kind of expression when he says let there be light because and they say light is s so the auscultation of sound that's that's what scientists say when you have light it's an oscillation of sound so when when when he said let there be light it left his mouth and it escalated until right a pair let me be like now you will notice then that whenever you see logos the rider has a sentence like all things were made by him and without him was not anything made that was made because if there is a thought and the thought wants to reveal itself or manifest itself then in order to manifest there has to be a creation the beginning of manifestation when God chooses to manifest himself the very beginning of his manifestation is to create he has to create because in the canyons of eternity God by himself knowing himself does not need to manifest himself to himself so if he's going to show himself he has to first make something to show himself to so so logos then is is is with God logos is God because there is no marketing agency separate from God who can market God God has to market himself they're soulless so wherever you see logos you will know that there has to be a creation so now then the spirit the word the logos was God and the second form then is and the word became flesh and dwelt among us flesh creatures and we beheld his glory as of the only begotten of the Father full of grace and truth so now that that was with God that that was God the logos which manifests God became flesh and now we are able to see the logos in a panoply of flesh now we see the invisible spirit it's key here now that it was he was not made you know but became flesh you see because now not made because that then puts him passive but became makes him active so my action is voluntary I control the manifest stative process nobody makes me I control the process of manifestation so now he then is created to reveal is he created to reveal that the reality and totality of his human nature and growing as the only begotten from the father which actually should be God only begotten is that he is created to reveal their God the logos the word now becomes flesh and dwells among us in order to reveal the word which is spirit which is God's you see I've got to bring God in your situation but I got to create in order to reveal I want you to stay with me just a minute here now the stress here is to the nature and character of the relationship he was the Shekinah glory in open manifestation that that's the world which was with God the word became flesh and so the only that God only begun which is in the bosom of the Father he hath declared him I've got to move in your situation and in your circumstance so you can see God in your situation or your circumstance but I control the manifested process you don't control it I control it I will show you what I want to show you when I want to show it to you but I have to declare it by my own choice oh god I feel it here now we take another step now and the next step goes to the third form of the world and and John now expresses to that in his epistle because he explains the contact that they had with the Incarnate Word because you and I did not the privilege of being in Judea the Incarnate Word was evident in the universe we were not there we are some 2000 years removed so what John did is say that which was from the beginning not of time now but of Jesus's ministry and our involvement we have heard which we have seen with our eyes which we have looked upon our hands having handled the word of life for the life was manifested that is the spirit became flesh and we have seen it and bear witness yes and show unto you that eternal life that was with the father and was manifested unto us now you see the sequence was with the father and became flesh we beheld the word but you are not here with us so that which we have seen and heard declare we unto you that you also might have fellowship with us I have got to bring you into a relationship with the Incarnate Word which is a manifestation of the Spirit word but you're out of my time so what I do is I will give you I will give you the written word which is my declaration of my association with the Incarnate Word which is a revelation of the spirit word there is a word there is a word the Bible is his declaration but his association was with the Incarnate Word which is a revelation of the spirit word so my Bible becomes the expression of Christ so us Christ is the Express image of God both are visible in the Bible if I want to know Jesus I got to know my Bible if I want to know God I've got to know Jesus are you with me God can we go to the next step Jesus now spoke as the Incarnate Word and and and here's one instance where he said I am The Living bread which came down from heaven I am the bread of life then you have no life in you I mean we're intelligent people now what is this eating business that you're talking about we're going to eat and drink your blood if you'll notice the Bible says that many of the disciples left because they failed he said what if you see the Son of Man ascend from whence he came I guess there goes dinner we sure can eat it no reason he says let me tell you something it is the spirit that quickeneth the flesh profiteth nothing the words that I speak and they are like you don't what you tear open the package [Applause] it just looks like another package hold that org and I hurt myself of the Incarnate Word was life and the spirit of the written word has life only the package is different the package of the Incarnate Word moved in the earth in a particular time in human history but the written word is the Declaration of the Incarnate Word which is a manifestation of the Spirit word there is spirit in this Bible that's why sometimes when you read it in the middle of what you're going through something comes out of it that's in you and makes a difference in your life I feel God in this place I feel the Spirit of God it's the spirit that quickeneth and so the Jesus speaks spirit words as the Incarnate Word and as they recorded the spirit words spoken by the Incarnate Word that became the written word as the Incarnate Word how many put this you got to get to locals to get Rhema you don't get Rhema without logos you got to know Jesus to get Rhema because it's out of the logos that Rhema comes are you with me are you with me uh and so now to accept one is to accept all for all this so for the first time I know the Baker I know the bread and I got the recipe you see God is the baker Jesus is the pray go to the next level right here now now us then we fulfill the significance of the title logos because now we have the world the personal manifestation not a part of the divine nature but the whole of the divine nature that's it because now no gods now and we're gonna get a little philosophical here for a minute August then because that whole deity when you get a word from God you get God you can't have a word from God and not have God because God is here's a word if you've got a word from God you got God in your situation when the word comes forward from a normal little guy that looks like just an average male but when the words come out if it's the Word of God it's God that steps out of his mouth into your circles turns things around well there is a word so now the word then it's first of all the principle of the divine self manifestation in the very ground of being in itself now we're borrowing from Paul Tillich in the ground of being so what it's saying now is that the word becomes the principle by which God manifests himself he uses the expression ground of being because it is out of God that everything comes the creature to whom he wants to reveal himself and the revelation itself God controls it all that's why revelation must be given and revelation must be received or else it's not revelation if God shows it but I don't get it then it's like he never showed it when he shows it I'm gonna kill it because he doesn't show it for me not to get him that's why he says my world shall not return unto me void it's gonna do the job in your life and my life and it's going to start whenever I say I believe oh god help me now I'm trying to behave but I feel something pushing me to not feel the Holy Ghost the grounding is not only their beats in which every form disappears but it's the source from which every form emerges and so the ground of being God has a character of self manifestation nobody can show you God can only speak in normal chromatic terms and put God's Word towards your mind but it takes God to rabbit in your heart I can speak to you intellectually but he'll speak to your need spiritually when you get a word from God you just stop in contact with God yourself ah let's go to the next step so the world then is the medium of creation for the logos for the purpose of manifestation now we go to the next level he creates you but he also creates a series of events so that he might give you a series of revelation I got to create the situation with you it's what I want to do it's not by your timetable it's by my time I want you to learn certain things about me so what I do is I get in your life and I create certain situations so that I can give you some revelation about me I feel God in here look at somebody and say that's what's going on in my life God is get ready to show me some new things that I never would know unless he created a situation or revelation for God I'd feel his presence gonna take it a little further the lordís is in now when you deal with the dynamics of Revelation in situation what you have now is a history of events that now make up or constitute the history of Revelation do you have a history of God's revelatory moves in your life can't you not be mine certain times in your life when God showed himself this circumstance he showed himself in the other the other day he showed himself never he showed himself and every time there is a revelation there is an increase in your face for the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith I believe to God and then he showed himself so I don't have to believe him for that I know him for that but because I know him for that I can believe him for that and then when I believe him he shows himself so I've got two things that he showed himself in so now I can believe him for more so the more I believe the more he reveals and the more I believe and the more he reveals and the more and the more and the more until I can look the devil in the face and say you can't make me doubt and know too much about y'all excuse me I'm you see this that brings us to Rima because the word then is the manifestation of the divine life in the history of revelation and so then the Rima now that I get it now is uttered from its Greek its uttered in speech or in writing so it is the Rhema about the logos in the history of revelation on what God has shown me say that I the Son of man has got to give way to who do you see because it's alright to go by the other person's revelation what I need to know him for he creates a situation for Revelation he created a situation for revelation and he called it jehovah nissi he created a situation for revelation and he called it jehovah refika he created a situation for revelation and he called it Jehovah Shalom he created a situation for revelation and he called it jehovah Sikkim knew he created a situation for revelation and he called it jehovah role he created a situation for revelation and he called it jehova shamma he created a situation for revelation and he call it jehovah Maccabees so now I can say the Lord is my banner is my healer the Lord is my provider the Lord is my righteousness the Lord is my shepherd the Lord is present the Lord is my Sanctifier and devil you can go to the liquor I feel caught in this house give somebody a high five say there is a word for your situation what you want to call it gee Homer whatever your situation as [Applause] this is where they missed it this is where they missed it this little group this little family group this is where they missed it I know you're my friends and I know we have a reciprocal relationship we have been enjoying each other's company yeah but you see it's only his friends who get another revelatory experience who were not his friends he kept himself secret from them God when you're his friend then he sets up situations in order to give you another insight to just how powerful he is the only thing you're going through right now is the Lord setting up another situation just who he is god I feel you he's getting ready to show that there is no boss that can stop you he's getting ready to show you that I can bless you in spite of how people treat you he's getting ready to shoulder that is nothing wrong with what you're doing I just want some glory [Applause] do I feel calm at this place well bless His name well just go on at prison for a minute that's what's going on he's just for a revelation which anointed my feet then it's the same Mary that wiped my feet with it and I know who she is and I know who Lazarus is what this sickness is that the Son of God might be glory you just drop all the other parts out then here's how it be read this sickness is what for the glory of God reason for it I'm just putting a situation together that I might get some glory out of here that's why I'm glad he's dead and I'm glad cuz I'm gonna get some [Applause] I took somebody say I'm ready to go my job [Applause] sometimes you can't understand it because after all I am a friend how could we be so close to him and be so reciprocal in our ministries and he just totally ignore us because when it comes to the glory of God my relationship I must understand is for his glory he'll push me to the edge of my face and pushed me to the edge of my grief my circumstance and when I think it's all over ready to get some praise tell the neighbor you got some praise that you haven't yet given God and gods get ready to pull it out of him cause he's getting ready to bring you out when I'm he's getting ready to pull it out of here he's getting ready to show you his hand you know him as Jehovah Jireh but do you know him as Jehovah Rapha you gotta know him in all aspects then you can tell the devil get out of my house this relationship because when you're going through something you can't figure it out and most of us because of our traditional Association to good behavior when I was wrong would be judgments and punishment was because she was traditional and she understood that there are certain things that I must get from the Lord and that is why if you had been here my brother would not have died wrong he's creating a situation so if he still had come he was still going to die because the plan was I need to show that I am the resurrection and the life can I have a little Church in here tonight but somebody and say it's Church I feel a little churchy God and so now she goes to her tradition but that's the problem with us today we run to tradition looking for an answer but honey it ain't in the tradition you need a right now world so what I'm going through I don't have any book on it God's taking me through a new thing yeah to show me new revelation and so she hollered he'll raise on the last day and he hollered I am the last day the resurrection and the life and I'm getting ready to do something for you now that you're looking for tomorrow shake somebody's hand and said not tomorrow have it now by the power of God I feel the Holy Ghost now if you've got enough faith to believe me don't have to work it out next year I can work it out right now because I saw the sign when I walked in the door now is the time of Jubilee and it's my time and it's right now can I just preach I don't want to let you know more I wanna preach like the old time but I feel the power of the Holy Ghost shake somebody's hand like you go shake it off and say neighbor there is a word it's your time rise up out of your mess [Applause] there is a word for your situation the word is which is your sword whether or not you've lost heart you need is a word for things bacteria began to grow releasing enzymes which dissolve the body from the inside producing gas and bloated it didn't matter how distorted he was there was a word that would move the distortion his features were unrecognizable I feel the beetles that ate up his skin but when he said Lazarus it didn't matter because the bugs have to give up the beetles that ate up the spiders that ate up this scale and if you get a word you can tell the devil you gotta give me back [Applause] that you took from me there is a word I feel the Holy Ghost - except there is a word for your situation and everything the devil took from you [Applause] I want it back I've got a word that everything is gonna work out fine I got a word that God is looking for
