Chesed, Covenant Mercy

[Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] good morning good morning welcome to faith foundations I'm Greg Stevens of an associate pastor here at this ministry for pastor Georgia Terry good morning pastor Georgia Terry you are greatly missed and pretty much everybody else is greatly missed as well listen I learned a long time ago that and I'll tell you who taught me this furthermore Sorella used to have me come speak when I was a pastor in California to his people and it was always on television and I would I would be in an empty room by myself for an hour and speaking on television and who knew that during those days that would be great training time for the days in which we live today and so I'm grateful to him for that I'm grateful to all of you everybody is a Neiman burr today and so we are we're I'm grateful and we're grateful to you at this ministry I have in my hand one of my grandfather's old Bibles a matter of fact on the way over the cover fell off and I went back and I found the box of things that are his that were given to me because he passed her during the the Great Depression why do we call it great wasn't so great was it he pastored in the 30s during the Depression and during the war years in the 40s and some of his notes one thing about him he was very much like pastor George as he kept everything and he has prophecies and words and and messages and and I'm looking and in here are some of his handwritten and typed notes in this and is very very interesting to go back because I thought what is what did he do how did you how did he pastor during time of crisis when literally nobody had work when literally nobody came to his church and so it's been very interesting it's been a study I've done all weekend long and I found some things that were very interesting people would tithe dr. Bailey's in here people would tithe chickens sister so-and-so gave two chickens today and I gave one of them to brother so-and-so who needed it this one were tired eggs and this one brought in a whole bushel of collard greens and it's just amazing to watch how they work together and that's the secret to this whole thing the body of christ coming together and working together obeying the laws of the land and we are in compliance with that today you ready for the word father we thank you for your word we have our faith in it that we are never disappointed because your word is true we ask us we ask you today to wash us in your word today that will never be the same in Jesus mighty name we have ears to hear in hearts to receive amen and amen all right let me just get into some things I want to go to a verse that brother Copeland has mentioned a couple of times during the week over in Matthew chapter 22 I want to show you something here I want to set up the context this is the render unto Caesar those things which are Caesars verse but I want to put it in context with you because there was two groups two primary groups of people religious church people if you will put it in a more modern term in Jesus day the Pharisees and the Sadducees and they believe different things the Pharisees believed in a resurrection and that's important in a minute the Sadducees did not believe that there would be a resurrection of the body and this is why they were sad you see because they didn't believe they would be resurrected that was funny here we go look at this Matthew 22 verse number 15 then went the Pharisees that took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk isn't that interesting and they set out unto him their disciples with the Herodians saying master we know thou are true and you teach us the way of God in truth neither carest thou for any man for thou regard regard not the person of men that's a great testimony of Jesus right there that is a is a wonderful thing they just said about him verse 17 tell us therefore what thinkest our what do you think about this is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar or not but Jesus perceived their wickedness and said listen to this is sweet love Jesus here why tempt ye me you hypocrites that's something show me the tribute money and they brought unto him a penny and he said unto them whose is the image in this and the superscription they said unto Him Caesars then said he unto them render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's and unto God the things which are gods when they heard these things these words they marveled and left him and went their way and then the very next day you'll see that the Sadducees came to talk to there were three main problems that the Israelites had when which led to their death and their failure to enter into their promised land first of all a failure to mix God's promises with faith you got it right here on the screen three problems number one they had a failure to mix God's promises with faith we have promises from God our responsibility is to mix faith with that number two number two a failure to rest on the promises well let that just rest there for a second a failure to rest on the promises first we don't have faith in them second we don't rest in them third number three the resulting hardness of heart they develop toward God if you fail to rest on his promise hardness of heart is the next thing about him and that's what kept them out of their promised land from the time of Abraham and from generations following God gave the Israelites promises of deliverance from Egypt and promises for a future home in a land of abundance and that's what we have that's what we've inherited but if we fail to enter into this rest listen we're in a time arrest right now and we're resting by faith even though they knew the now listen to this the Pharisees of statuses both of them they knew the promises by heart but they didn't mix faith with it instead they acted in fear and unbelief towards God's Word for them right James will warn us in the New Testament the second Testament that we can't be just hearers of the word that's not good enough be you doers of the word and not hearers only deceiving your own self you're not being deceived by Satan you're being deceived by yourself that's even worse isn't it because I'm not mixing faith with it and I'm not resting on the promise therefore hardness apart now listen when I deceived myself I have hardened myself you see it that's what begins to happen and that's why Jesus is standing here in Matthew 22 talking to Pharisees and their primary job their job was to keep the word and to watch for the Messiah because they had deceived themselves the word was hard to them they had hardened themselves to God and so the very one that they were spit to watch for is standing right in front of them and they can't see me I remember brother Hagin used to say you wouldn't know him if he walked in here with a red and purple polka-dotted suit and a feather in his cap I remember you know maybe I'm not getting the exact verbiage correctly but there's a lot of churches a lot of people wouldn't even recognize him if they've walked in a matter of fact in Revelation 3 it tells us behold I stand at the door and knock If any man open I'll come in now that's not a Salvation call he's speaking to the churches he's standing outside the door of the church knocking can I come in hello alright let's keep going so whether you're resting on God's promise or griping and complaining about your life hello oh I'm so bored I have to sell at home I can't go see him now I'm got into your woodpile did night we got nothing to do listen to this storms will come the griping and complaining Christian probably won't come through them as successfully as others will they won't come through them stronger and more mature I'm telling you guys this is our finest hour and we're going to come through this with a victory at another level in him that the world has never seen before it's possible okay now look at me in that tone of voice put the remote down here we go so whether you like it or not conflicts in life will come and the one who rests on the promises is going to end up on the other side of the situation with increased peace maturity and stability I'm telling you you go back and you read some of my grandfather's notes and I remember that generation I was a little kid but I'm telling you that was a strong praying group why they'd come through something oh my so the one that rest on the promises is going to end up on the other side of this thing with increased peace maturity and stability God never said we you wouldn't have a storm in life but he did promise to bring you through them all and if you've got a promise you've got everything you need Jesus look listen I got to thinking about this when he was on the Sea of Galilee he might have known a storm was coming but he might not have known a storm was coming either way it didn't matter to him because the promise had been given so it didn't matter the greatest gift you can receive from God is a promise you have a promise of eternal life you have a promise of heaven as your home you have a promise of above only not beneath you have a promise of being the head not the tail you have a promise of healing come on and because he's not a man that should lie and he's a covenant-keeping god that promise is going to come to pass my goodness so it's his guarantee that you're gonna be fine and you're gonna be taken care of so he stands up and he rebukes the storm for the disbelieving and worried disciples then he rebuked their unbelief and told them they possess little faith now think of the comparison of that he had great faith they had small faith yet he's asleep so great faith was number two was resting in this one net he slept they feared when he was awakened he rebuked the storm and stopped in response to their fear now sometimes as a demonstration of greater faith to sleep than it is to rebuke think about that for a second the greatest demonstration of faith was he was asleep he had entered into rest he's resting on a promise we got to go to the other side this is what allowed Saul or Paul of Tarsus to shake the serpent off because he was going on a promise I must stand before Caesar this is why when he was bobbing around in the ocean in the shipwreck I must stand before Caesar he had a promise and his faith was in that promise so no matter what else was happening that was contrary to that promise it doesn't matter I have a promise so Jesus shows us the value of resting on a promise yeah but I'm stuck inside I can't go anywhere and there's nothing to do there's a ton of things to do all those honeydew's you've been wanting to do it's time to do them right you can do a lot of things a pen besides watch the waltons there's a lot of thing nothing against the Waltons but there's a lot of things you can do right now John on the Isle of Patmos for about 18 months what did he get accomplished there the book of Revelation come on now Martin Luther was locked up in a castle what did he get accomplished he translated the entire Bible into the German language during that time there's things that you can do right now that is beneficial for you in the kingdom all right rest does not come from what you experience but for what you know let's say it again rest doesn't come from what you experienced but what you know in 2nd Corinthians chapter 5 verse 6 Paul tells of the Corinthian church therefore we are always confident knowing that we're confident because we know while we are at home in the body we're we are absent from the Lord so we know what he's was he talking about here and I'm gonna get to this what's he talking about he's talking about a coming promise that you and I have we have a promise that there's going to be a shout and a Trump and the dead in Christ will rise first we which are alive and remain will join them in the air I'm telling you this is on the horizon for us and we cannot forget that and so we rest in the promises Korona is just a little speed bump in that process come on guys everything else the grocery store is out of toilet paper is a tiny little speed bump in the process of what what we have before us heaven is our home we're a body of believers and we're growing stronger every single day this is the church's finest hour oh yeah well how does it feel to preach to a room full of empty people it's not empty scripture says that the Angels come to hear us speak about him this room now poor government officials I want you to understand this it is empty of humans in here but it is full of angels and every church in America is literally full to the rafters with angels today amen so knowledge produces confidence confidence is another term for resting and what God has told us to do now let me show you some things because there's been a lot of back-and-forth and the body of Christ we got to stop doing this let me just rebuke you for a second can you I do that because I want to rebuke me too we've got to stop this back and for that shouldn't close the church should close the church should we obey God should would not obey go we're following what the word said I just read it to you right here in Matthew 22 but I'm going to show you another verse to the one that everybody sends me all week long about Hebrews chapter 10 I'll show you that one in just a second forsake not the assembling yourselves together as you see the day come because it might not say what you think it says I'm just saying all right so let's get into this here we go in Psalm 95 verse 8 it says this today if you will hear his voice do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion how do you harden your heart by not resting in his promise okay let's look at Hebrews chapter 3 Hebrews 3 and verse 15 because he's quoting that 15 through 19 today if you will hear his voice harden not your hearts as in the provocation he's talking about this time in Psalm okay when they hard their hearts well is said today if you will hear his voice here we go do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion now here we go into into this next deal here for who having heard rebelled indeed was not all who came out of Egypt led by Moses now with whom was he angry 40 years was it not those who sinned whose corpses fell in the wilderness that's pretty strong and to whom did he sweared that they would not enter his rest but to those who did not obey how did they not obey so we see they could not enter in because of unbelief you're not believing in his promises and so because you won't believe in his promises you won't rest in his promise and when you won't rest this promise you get frustrated when you get frustrated you begin to harden your heart and you begin to become deceived by yourself devil doesn't have anything to do with this one sweetheart this is all us come on now and so he's showing us the value of resting on a promise they could not enter because of unbelief so the writer of Hebrews is quoting the writer of songs and telling us that hardness of heart is a choice we choose to harden our heart and largely we do this because we're arguing with each other and we're tweeting and angry birding I call it Angry Birds you know that game Angry Birds were yeah we're the kids they love these birds over and knock these things over that's what a lot of Christian tweets have become that's twitter twitter is not nice it's angry and so we were arguing with each other just like in Matthew when the Pharisees are accusing Jesus and trying to trip him up we can't do that in the body of Christ we've got to come together as the body and not point out that church because they won't close and point out this church because they did close them I thought you guys were faith people and I thought you were this and I thought you were there we've got to stop that now and come together as the body of Christ and that's what I'm going to show you is that all right so it's often the choice we make after the choice of unbelief toward God Israel could not enter Cain and because of unbelief all right unbelief is what led them to hardness of heart and if you refuse to rest in his promise during this time of rest do you understand we feel so inconvenienced by this don't we do you come on it's okay to admit it just to admit it and get it over with admit it then repent it we feel so inconvenienced but this is exactly what our Jew brothers and sisters do every Sabbath they spend time with their families in small groups not big roots small groups maybe just a family circle might might be ten maybe more just a few people and they bless each other and they spend time with one another and they've been doing this since the earliest days though we feel like we've been mistreated because we got to be in small groups right now this is the way the church started gays and I find it oh it's not really ironic actually it's kind of prophetic that we are doing exactly in these last of days the way we started and if you understand now we've been forced to do it as Gentiles if you realize that this is the way God does things former and latter rain he does things circular I am convinced we're closer than ever to the return of the Lord Jesus Christ okay I'll just move on let that seat for a second so when you fail to believe his promise you begin to move toward hardness of heart faith always has a vision and it looks forward unbelief has no vision and finds comfort in the past oh my they were always looking to their past how God brought them out but they had no belief in that he was doing that today come on now and we're the same way it's one thing to study the revivals of the past and that's a good thing to do but it's not to look at it and find comfort in that and not look at our day and not believe for our day this is and I love it we say it all the time the revival capital of the world that's for this day that should the Lord tarry for my children and my children's children there come on now right unbelief has no vision finds its comfort in the past man I'm looking forward the president the United States is looking forward we're looking forward to the day that we won't be sequestered like this though that our churches won't be like this I'm looking forward to the day when the body is gonna come united and shake this place okay now let me address something I've heard since this outbreak began and our normal routines were interrupted have you ever thought maybe our normal routine needed to be interrupted a little bit it just maybe it needed to be interrupted all of a sudden I've have realized something I have not missed the NFL at all I haven't missed college basketball and I love major-league baseball I love baseball but I haven't missed it matter of fact I've noticed something I just skip right past the sports channels oh my I know it's harrassing to some of you listen you've gotten used to the Cowboys not being in the Super Bowl I mean you know you just you just get used to this the true heroes are not sports people and Hollywood people anymore are they it's great okay let me address this many and the body of Christ began to argue and criticize one another why are we complying with this where you shouldn't comply with this we shouldn't do this we should do that and we began to argue and fight each other we got to stop that that's exactly the hardness of heart that the Pharisees and the Sadducees this is how you don't shape America this is how you don't influence Society come on now well tell you how we do do it go to Hebrews chapter 10 I'm telling you book of Hebrews is one of my absolute favorite books somebody asked me the other day pastor Greg what version do you read I said well in the Old Testament to read the original version but getting better at it Hebrews chapter came what's the original version Hebert Hebrews chapter 10 Hebrews I believe three books in the New Testament second Testament what I called the Habakkuk chapter 2 trilogy they are Romans Galatians and Hebrews and they all answer a question what's that question the just shall live by faith all three of them address that and exactly how we do that and that's why they're there some of my favorite ok Hebrews chapter 10 I'm gonna read you verse 25 and then we're gonna go backward break this down a little bit alright you okay with it here's the verse that everybody has wanted to rebuke me with and and let me know that we're missing God and it says this and not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together as the manner of some is but exhorting one another and so much the more as you see the Day approaching alright now that that's right there it is brother why we don't comply with the government and we don't shut our churches down okay hang on to that stay with me let me show you something this verse is taken by virtually every Church in every elder in my lifetime to mean that you should not stop attending church and they I have beat I've been beat up with this verse I'm telling you my grandmother got me with this verse my Sunday school teacher hit me with this verse what about you any of you guys got this when attendance would start to decline in the summer months usually by the end of spring right before summer because churches go in cycles I don't know if you know that or not and so the summer months the pastor would get up and he'd preach to us about that verse right there you shouldn't be out there in the beach and extending your vacations and all this kind of stuff because we don't forsake the assembling of ourselves together as you see the Day approaching right I mean I remembered boy this was the the number one this was the number one verse for church growth and so you'd yell at everybody at church the preachers would come on now in our denomination and our denomination this is the one that when he said turn to Hebrews chapter 10 verse 25 or turn to Malachi chapter that you knew you knew giving has been down so that's why we're at Malachi and attendance is down so we're in Hebrews chapter 10 25 wonder if my grandfather has never I'll look clear I'll look later I'll just look later so let me show you some things Hebrews is such a wonderful book I mentioned it's part of the Habakkuk trilogy the just shall live by faith in Chapter 7 of Hebrews it's so beautiful you're going to discover a priest forever that is able to save us completely forever okay so in each one of these chapters now you can't take that verse in verse 25 out of chapter 10 you got to keep it in context Billee brim teaches us all the time you gotta know who it's talking to come on is it that is that the nation's is it the Jews is it the church who's this talking to am i right so you got to keep this in context so in context well what's the what's chapter 11 chapter 11 is the Hall of Fame right the heroes of faith is right behind this in that interesting let's look at this for a second chapter 7 you discover a priest forever that will save us completely with no little bits that he didn't he didn't get or he missed that am i right and so he saves us completely for how long forever there's no there's no expiration date on us glory to God there's no best used by date don't us we're not like milk and we go sour come on now I've always wondered about cheese I get that cheese you know that's been aged for two years and that lasts a week in your fridge why don't you like aged in a week and let it stay for two years I don't know I never could figure out why they didn't Chapter seven a priest forever that's going to save us completely chapter 8 we see a description of a true sanctuary in which this priest forever ministers and he ministers in his own blood mark Hankins talked about it last Sunday my lord if you didn't see it go back to the archives and watch that it's a blood covenant and he this priest forever is in the heavenly tabernacle in the heavenly throne room with his own blood the blood of the Covenant there's my promise the blood of the Covenant the blood of Jesus has to be removed to remove me from the promise and who's big enough to do that Lucifer certainly didn't and no one else is either so we have a we have a true sanctuary in which the priests ministers in his own blood and it forever opens access i forever have access to the Holy of Holies because of the blood of Jesus and I can boldly go to the throne of grace this is part of my promise I have to have faith in that even when I don't feel like I can I know that I can and we were sealed by the Holy Spirit of promise so I've been sealed if you can speak in tongues you know you're good oh my so he begins to show us things to come in Chapter eight so promises these are promises for our faith to rest on now God went right back to the the deal again didn't I these are promises by the Father for our faith to rest on do you understand that you right now are seated with Christ in heavenly places now you're still on the earth in a group of 10 people or less 6 feet apart I'm looking there's 1 2 3 4 people right there and there at least 6 feet apart from each other right but you right now in in this state that we're in are seated with him yet we're still here and this is the contradiction this is this is something that this generation I'm holding up my grandfather's Bible this one is from the 1940s and I think the earliest one I saw in here was 1952 then I'm looking at this this generation had absolute faith in heaven as their home now what they didn't fully understand was how to live victoriously here you with me but they understood what citizenship they had now we've learned greatly about our authority here and how to access finances and health and everything else by faith now we've got to use that same faith and re tap into what these guys knew about the blood of Jesus and where they're seated because that's our next assignment amen glory to God and so we've got to keep that hope of our calling that hope of where we're headed Paul writes a ton about this all right so that's exactly what Hebrews chapter 10 is all about promises for our faith to rest in okay let me just I know I didn't do this but since I have extra time today I'm going to do this let me just start with with chapter 1 verse 1 rather Labor's chapter 1 Hebrews chapter 10 verse 1 let me give you a little context to this okay and it begins to break some things down about the past life the law having a shadow of good things to come not the very image of the things can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers there and to perfect so he's making a contrast now see here's the problem you and I never understood the sacrificial system because we didn't experience it alright let's go on for then they would not have ceased to be offered because that the worshipers once purged would have no more conscience of sins but if those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year so every year you took your sacrifice and it rolled the sins back right verse 4 for it is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins verse 5 wherefore when he cometh into the world he saith sacrifice and offering that was not but a body thou has prepared for me that is a critical statement to the rest of this chapter a body you prepared for me you understand that Jesus submitted okay let me okay class here we go professor Greg just kicked in you're a 3-part being you're a spirit that's you you have a soul and you live in a body Jesus is talking here about a body you have prepared for me so when Jesus submitted to the promise what's what's what do you mean what he submitted he is the child of promised the promised seed of Abraham so he's submitting to become the promise I'm about to get happy when he did that he submitted his spirit certainly but he also submitted his body which means he kept his body in check come on guys verse 6 let me show you this and burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou has no pleasure verse 7 this said i lo i come in the volume of the book is written of me to do the will Oh God so he did the will of God in his spirit he did the will of God in his mind will and emotions and he did the will of God in his body that's critical for you for us to understand now let's let's move on down here let me go all the way down to verse 14 for by one offering he has perfected forever them that are sanctified for one offering he has perfected forever how long forever them that are sanctified we're of the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us the Holy Ghost is the witness to this he's the seal of this verse sixteen sixteen makes me happy this is the Covenant that I will make with them after those days says the Lord here's your covenant I will put my law in their hearts and in their minds will I write them and their sins and iniquities will I remember no more that's your covenant that's your promise that's the promise you rest in because if you don't rest in this you're gonna get hard-hearted oh my verse eighteen now where a remission of these is there is no more offering for sin the sin offering has been done okay it verse nineteen having therefore brethren boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus he is that priest with his own blood and he brought it into this holy tabernacle once and for all this is good stuff this is covenant by a new and living way which he hath consecrated for us through the veil that is to say his flesh this is good news now listen if you're afraid of this virus these versus right here will just absolutely destroy Crona can't live on this ain't bad right look at this and having a high priest over the house of God let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering let's hold let's hold on to this let's keep saying what the word says let's keep doing what the word does let's keep believing what the word believes amen alright let's look at this and let us look at this look at verse 24 it's in context of 25 let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works let us consider one another to provoke unto love unto love that means I can't use verse 25 as an angry tweet can i I hate it when he does this he sets us up yes I did not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together as the manner of some is but exhorting one another and so much more as you see the Day approaching then he goes into willful sin now let's break this down I don't want to belabor you with the details but I want to point out in verse 23 let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering for he is faithful that promised in the King James Version really and truly I went back and I looked at the Greek and I am NOT a Greek scholar dr. Renner if you're watching I am open to correction the Greek word there is better translated as hope here it is here's the word better translated as hope and as a matter of fact in other cases in the New Testament it comes out as hope so what he's talking about is not wavering concerning our hope that our faithful God has so what is the hope well Paul tells us what the hope is over and over and over certainly there are many things that we can hope for right but the Scriptures often refer to our hope as the resurrection Paul always refer to our hope as the resurrection come on now the resurrection from the dead our glorification that's what's next for us Jesus is the only born-again person with a glorified body you're going to have one that's what your hope is then oh man Laurie thank God acts 23 verse 6 Paul refers to the hope and the resurrection of the day there it is again in acts 24:15 Paul says that he has hope toward God which they themselves the Pharisees also allow that there shall be a resurrection of the dead both the just and the unjust this is what's ahead of us on the timeline this is what our hope is about this is what he's talking about when he's talking about assembling ourselves together it's in the same hope he refers to in acts 26 and verse 6 and acts 28 and verse 20 in Romans chapter number 5 and verse 2 Paul will write the hope of the glory of God that we made by whom also we have access by faith into this grace where when we stand and rejoice in the hope of the glory of God what is the glory of God that we're going to be glorified and be as he is we don't know what we're gonna look like but we know this when we see him we'll be like him that's your hope that's your thing you've got your faith in for the future this is what he's talking about in this verse Romans 8 verse 19 let me just read you this one you mine Romans 8 verse 19 for the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God for the creature was made subject to vanity not willingly come on now he's talking about it we're all the way back to Adam here but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in Hope look at this because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God verse 22 for we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now verse 23 and not only they but ourselves also which have the firstfruits of the Spirit even we ourselves groan within ourselves waiting for the adoption to wit the redemption of our body for we're saved by hope but but hope that is seen is not hope for what a man sayeth why does he hope for but if we hope for that which we see not then we do with patience wait for it he's talking about what's coming for us next guys glory to God this is what's next so many passages let me give you a couple more these are all the same word in the Greek okay first Thessalonians 4:13 and 14 you see the same thing he refers to the resurrection at the return of Jesus Christ as our hope but I would not have you be ignorant brethren concerning them which are asleep that you sorrow not even as others which have no hope Thessalonians thought they missed the rapture and he's writing to him saying no you haven't missed it you're fine you're good come on now listen we need to have our head on a swivel we need to be ready we need to get our house prepared get your house in order we need to do that if you watch the signs of things we had a supermoon on Purim we're gonna have a supermoon on Passover just a few few days we're gonna have a supermoon on Rosh Hashanah this year and Jewish rabbis in the papers in Jerusalem are saying now to have super moons on these days after we've had Blood Moon cycles this is a the Davidic covenant this is a sign that the Messiah is right at hand I'm telling you your Jewish brothers and rabbis in Israel right now are believing the Messiah is imminent at any time and we're concerned we can't find toilet paper I love you when I say that we're fighting whether our church should stay open or closed and whether what are we doing and why are they doing that I'm telling you his return is coming in Titus chapter 2 verse 13 Paul says we should be looking for that blessed hope and the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ now back to Hebrews chapter 10 back to that so I gave you a lot of verses right to establish that that same word refers to hope in all these verses okay getting back to Hebrews chapter 10 verse 24 let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works in context then because of the hope of our glorification in the resurrection at the return of Jesus were to keep one another in mind to incite each other in love and good works in light of what's coming we're to work to build each other up so then he says this because of the glorification that's coming we're gonna sight one another list of this forsake not the assembling yourselves together assembling together is from one Greek word here it is going to the going to the monitor Epis and the GOG a what does that word mean well in that interesting synagogue is in there gathering together it's translated this way it's obvious in this passage that we're to be together we are being gathered to Christ let me show you something it's a noun in this passage it's a noun it's only used as a noun in one other place is used as verbs but it's only used as a noun and whether the place and its second Thessalonians chapter 2 all right now we beseech you brethren by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and by our gathering together unto Him that you be not soon shaken in mind or be troubled neither by spirit nor by word nor by letter as from us as the day of Christ is at hand they thought they had missed the rapture and he's warning them you did not miss it but look at what he's saying he once again uses as a noun gathering together it's translated epicenter go gay it is obvious in this passage that he's referring to being gathered together in Christ our hope of where we're going our hope in the rapture our hope and a glorified body he's not talking about you guys are disobeying God because you don't meet during this time of crisis in your building we are meeting you're watching us on television right now you're communicating you're typing in the chat room right now what he's talking about is the hope and our gather being gathered under Christ can you see that the early church began meeting in small groups like we are commanded to do today we're repeating the end of days just exactly as the way we begin every weekend our Jewish brothers and sisters do what we've been forced to do let's see you do not understand something and find it very interesting that the writer of Hebrews uses this word right there because the synagogue was a place where Jews and early Christians gathered Paul when he would go into a city he would usually go there first and begin to teach and then he would go elsewhere all right so synagogue is a very common word especially to the Hebrews what is the name of the book and I'm reading out of in this Bible it's the book of Hebrews so he uses a very familiar word in a very unfamiliar way on purpose are you with me okay I'm having to believe by faith that you're with me on this it's a common word it's like we would say church we're referring to a building when we say Church the place where we gather that's the place where they would gather all right but the point that the author of Hebrews is is using in this is to show the Jewish people a paradigm had changed for understanding how to approach God because what do we do in in in chapter 7 and in chapter 8 he's given you a whole new way of approaching now come on so now we approach differently it's not about this building is where the anointing is it's in the church now well where's the church it's not this building it's us Christ in us the hope the hope of glory so he's showing them something he uses a very common word for Hebrews so every like it would be say Church for us he's referring to a building the place where we gathered but the point that he's making is to show them how that their check their understanding has to change an understanding of how we approach God has to change they were transformed and it's been fulfilled in the person of Jesus Christ so in Hebrews 10:25 he takes a common word synagogue and uses an uncommon form by doing this he draws attention to the word stay with me in this verse and then 25 he uses the verb form of epic synagogue a and in effect he's saying things are different now he's not in the temple behind a veil he's in you and we're to our three which isn't compliant to under 10 when two or three I said you're in compliant when two or three of you are gathered together in my name so you can render unto Caesar that which is Caesars and not not break 10:25 amen and be in faith and still believe in healing and still be the revival capital of the world you're not breaking any of it you're doing exactly what the government said to do and you're doing exactly what the book of Hebrews said to do for where two or three of you are gathered together in my name there am I in the midst of you you're the church not the building my god he lives in you so how are things different you got to remember for the Jews the presence of God was a place it was a box it was a golden box in a room behind a wall behind a curtain and only one person could go in there once a year right but those of you whose unswerving hope is in Christ where that where the presence of God is it's in us let me show you first Corinthians chapter 3 verse 16 don't you know that you yourselves are the temple and God's Spirit dwells in your midst I love that John 14 verse 16 and 17 John 14 verse 16 and 17 says this and I will ask the Father and He will give you another advocate to help you and be with you how long forever the Spirit of Truth the world cannot accept him because it neither sees him nor knows him but you know him he lives with it with you and will be in you guys let me tell you where church is it's right there where your your meeting with us it's your little group of people around your television set right now that's the church don't work to God glory to God that's the church it's you you're the revival capital of the world on your street right now he took us and diaspora at us he sewed SSE we talked about the Jews in the Diaspora it's now happened to the Christians for a for a period of time diaspora so see scatter see he has scattered his seed of the Holy Ghost in us now to every neighborhood around the country God let your light shine this is your greatest hour now the revival capital of the world walks in when everybody's panicked for toilet paper and is at peace and is at rest now the revival capital is at rest trying to find chicken I don't know what's more valuable toilet paper or chicken you can't find the chicken at the market I mean I saw people that's wicked I saw people camped out on the toilet paper aisle and they had another family member over by the chicken area waiting for him to bring something out now Lord now is when we should be resting in this because we have a hope we have a piece about us this was the way guys that all started guys it all started this way a group of about a dozen fishermen and others along a seaside in Galilee later Paul's gonna travel he's going to plant intimacy in home fellowships that will provide the earliest forms of the gospel the Declaration and synagogue on Mars Hill all of these different things the resulting questions that respond to him all of these things will happen in homes group meetings and houses that was the original recipients of the gospel of Jesus Christ even listen to this listen this the Upper Room when the Holy Spirit was poured out happened somebody's house I guarantee if I if I brought brother dr. Bailey up here he'd tell me instance after instance after instance that it began in somebody's home or somebody praying or a group of students coming together during lunch time to began to pray God has given us that ability right now for your family to come together for your family and that family because we're under 10 to come together and watch a revival break out in a house we are on the cusp of the greatest Awakening right now because of a stupid virus if we'll just get ourselves in tune with what God's doing and cooperate with it and rest in his promise you're gonna see a revival come out of this thing God a revival of our economy a revival of our of the spirit of this nation like you've never seen before the church met in homes I'll show it to you acts 2 X 5 X 8 X 9 X 12 X 16 X 18 X 20 X 21 Romans chapter 16 first Corinthians 16 Colossians 4 first Timothy 5 Philemon chapter 1 it's all through here guys we've been taken back to the original outpouring and if will embrace it and rest in his hope you're gonna see the greatest days your church has ever seen you're going to see the greatest days your family has ever seen we're going to be like him we need to pass through this time in faith and rest rest in it and as we pass through this his covenant and his return look in this as we pass through this time rest in the faith of his covenant and his return that we we'll be like him listen if you're sick and you need health in your body Matthew chapter 8 verse 17 said this here's your promise here's your promise you ready here's your promise to rest in he himself took

through your giving and it's offering time amen I can hear through the cameras everybody's cheering because it's offering time I'm telling you I can hear it in my spirit glory to God I'm excited about this offering message today the Lord spoke this to me while I was thinking about it and praying about it and God was very clear about what he spoke and he wanted he gave me some instruction he wanted me to talk to you about the way out the way out second Corinthians chapter 8 starting at verse 1 2nd Corinthians chapter 8 starting at verse 1 Paul is writing to the church at Corinth and he's writing to the churches of Corinth about the churches of Macedonia so he's using the churches of Macedonia as an example for what the church at Corinth needs to do and how they need to abound in a certain grace now here's the thing about the churches at Macedonian the churches of Macedonia were in a time of what the Bible calls affliction they were in a time a period of great pressure of great problem poverty but this is where I want to focus they were in a period of great distress it was a stressful time that word affliction literally means that there were pressures happening in their society and people were distressed because of what was going on around them their surroundings didn't look real good and they were looking for these are the just as a body of Christ in Macedonia they were actively looking for a way out they were actively looking for an opportunity to be what they were called to be and that is the Church of God the body of Christ and to demonstrate the power remember when Paul said I didn't come to you preaching pretty words but I came in demonstration of power and this was a group of people who were looking to demonstrate power and they found that giving was their way out watch this this is in the passion translation 2nd Corinthians chapter 8 starting at verse 1 beloved ones we must tell you about the grace God poured out upon the churches of Macedonia for even during a season of severe difficulty and tremendous suffering they became even more filled with joy from the depths of their extreme poverty super abundant joy overflowed into an act of extravagant generosity can you see it they're looking for an opportunity to get out and out of the depth of their poverty there was an overflow of an abounding of generosity watch this verse 3 for I can verify that they spontaneously gave not only according to their means but far beyond what they could afford this is what the body of Christ needs to hear at this time it would be easy for us to focus on what we can't do we have to focus on what we can do whatever you magnify is what's going to become most important and the biggest thing if you magnify what we can't do oh we can't go to church we can't be there we can't we can't drive over there we can't all be in the same building then you're gonna get stuck in what you can't do we've got to start magnifying what we can do and this church said you know what we have some ability but we're even going to step into the things that we can't we're going to put our faith on not just the things that we see around us but even the things that we are unable to we shouldn't be able to do this you know what we can do this and so they pushed into even beyond they what they could afford watch this verse for they actually begged they had to beg them to receive the offering they actually begged us for the privilege of sharing in this ministry of giving to God's holy people who are living in poverty these are impoverished people taking care of impoverished people they exceeded our expectations by first dedicating themselves fully to the Lord and then to us according to God's pleasure that that is why we applaud we appealed to Titus since he was the one who got you started so he's talking to the church at Corinth and the churches at Corinth since he was the one that got you started and encourage you to give so he could help you complete this generous undertaking on your behalf you do well and excel in every respect in unstoppable faith so he's talking to a faith people in powerful preaching in Revelation knowledge in your passionate devotion and in sharing the love we have shown to you so make sure that you also excel in grace-filled generosity why would he tell them to make sure you excel in graceful generosity because it's their way out because it's their way out and I want to tell you today that your graceful generosity is your way out why because when you give by faith you partner with the gospel when you give by faith you partner with the gospel faith is always victory oriented remember in 1st John chapter 5 verse 4 what does it say this is the victory that overcomes the world even our faith wash Way says it in a passion translation you see every child of God overcomes the world for our faith is the victorious power that triumphs over the world faith has victory woven into it faith is victorious faith and when you're talking about faith faith in what faith in Jesus faith in the gospel and faith in the Word of God and every promise that has been spoken see you can't operate in faith and in defeat at the same time faith the position of faith is always the position of victory now watch this Psalm chapter 37 verse 3 this is from our daily Bible reading REM I see daily Bible reading this is so good I'm telling you you're about to take a dose of faith a dose of victory and it is going to snatch you out of a position of defeat listen to this Psalm chapter 37 verse 3 in the passion translation says this keep trusting in the Lord and do what is right in his eyes fix your heart on the promises of God and you will be secure feasting on his faithfulness verse 17 through 24 the Lord takes care of all his forgiving ones while the strength of the evil will surely slip away day by day the Lord what the Lord watches the good deeds of the godly and he prepares for them his forever rewards so the good deeds of the godly are connected to his forever reward those good deeds done by faith watch this even in a time of disaster he will watch over them and they will always have more than enough no matter what happens all the enemies of God will perish for the wicked have only a momentary value of fading glory then one day they vanish here today gone tomorrow that sounds like what our president said about the coronavirus it'll be here today gone tomorrow we'll be right back to meeting in our churches but you you will maintain a position of victory watch this verse 23 the steps of the God pursuing ones follow firmly in the footsteps of the Lord and God delights in every step they take to follow him if they stumble badly they will still survive for the Lord lifts them up with his hands I was once young but now I'm old not once have I found a lover of God forsaken by him nor have any of their children gone hungry instead watch this instead I found the godly ones to be the generous ones who give freely to others their children their glasses the generous ones their children are blessed and become a blessing got all of that from our daily m.i.c Bible readings this morning he's sending you a message he said the coronavirus didn't take me by surprise I've already given you the way out I've already provided for you the victory that's why we can already see our victory he's already given us the victory remember this real Christians the body of Christ the church reads their Bible because the Word of God always contains the way out and the power to get out it is our calling to demonstrate or to manifest that power to the world you have a world right now that needs to see a real Christian this is why this is the year of manifest power the year of manifest power is your opportunity to manifest his power for the church this is our finest hour pastor Greg says that this morning and we are going to emerge as his glorious church and when you partner with the word with the gospel you are partnering with the power that brings you out the power that brings our nation out the power that brings people romans chapter 1 verse 16 in the passion translation says this I refuse to be ashamed of sharing the wonderful message of God's liberating power unleashed in us through Christ for I am thrilled to preach that everyone who believes is saved brought out the Jew first and then people everywhere you may not have a microphone you may not have a camera you may not be able to reach your community or the world at large but you are able to partner and the power of partnership will bring this nation out so I want you to know this morning if you'd like to partner with us if you want to give this morning we have several platforms for you to give even though you're

to my heart and has been for many many many many many years I began studying covenant all a lot of years ago just almost well I would say I've been in this ministry 53 years I would say at least 47 48 years of that and it's just been so big and real in me and for though you've heard me tell that story but I'm gonna tell you the end back oh you know this is a long time ago you can tell Braniff Airways had a Airlines had a shuttle service that left every they staggered it it was a shuttled from Fort Worth to Dallas and from from and to Houston I think anyway and you could you could just go out to the gate and hand them the money for the ticket and go get on it and while those days are over for everyone and so I had our airplane was in the shop for something I don't remember what it was but anyway and on I need it I needed to go to no see I needed I was going to Houston and I said it Dallas they didn't show the dollars it was it was Houston back well nobody liked to sit up at the very front because there were no windows up there so that's where I went I like to be at that of you know get some people behind me and if you can picture this then there the airplane had a the book had up there was this carpeting for people getting just put your feet up their own what about anybody up there with me someone had handed me he w Kenyans book the blood covenant now it's published now larger than it was then I hadn't been it was just solid red and it wasn't over about that big and I saw I just stuck it in my pocket and I thought I'm gonna read this on the way to Houston so I started reading that little book Jesus Christ of Nazareth is my blood it hit me I want you to know it shot through me and I sit there and the more I read of that little book I couldn't read over about a paragraph of it at a time man I'd kick that bulkhead oh man I mean like once a month Otto says I'll just eat up with it you know and that here came the booze lady you know she got the card full of booze she walked up and said would you look oh no you've had too much already I guess my eyes were glazed oh yeah I even tried out drunk but not on her spirit my spirit the Holy Spirit and that that's when blood covenant really struck me with it was such a force and today we're going to talk about the very key the hardest to translate the most difficult to to have mental concept of Hebrew hesed now if you see it written it you can just pronounce it hese D but if you see it written it has a C in front of it and it's passive am i right professor it's that's it so that's what we're gonna look at today and before we get through you gonna be just as wild as I hope this morning so let's look at Matthew chapter 22 please Matthew 22 verse 41 now be sure you mark these because this is a this is a scriptural key to a number of people in the ministry of Jesus while the Pharisees were gathered together Jesus asked them saying what think ye of Christ whose son is he they say unto Him the son of David now you got that the son of David now when you hear like bartimaeus like the syrophoenician woman we're going to look at that but I was one of preparing for it right now and they said son of David you bet you know every time he you've got his attention they called him Messiah come out they called him Messiah whoa praise God amen now see that just particularly where we're going with this it just kind of sails over just surface reading the Bible you can't get anything out of just surface reading the Bible you know back in there back in the gold mining days you could find a little gold dust out of a creek or something like that boy the mother lode was right down to the ground I mean you had to dig for it well that's the same way of the Bible we don't want to just be dusting across the surface it takes time looking at it opening your eyes to it what I call going widescreen and don't go god I've read it thousands of times and suddenly one day you ever been sitting next to somebody said wow did you see that now I didn't say nothing what no hey but both read the same verse now then now that we have that settled let's go to the 23rd psalm we are living in the 23rd psalm today the 22nd song is Jesus on the cross it begins with my God my God why hast thou forsaken me and if you look at it in the classic amplified translation which is more correct he said it is finished now you know what he was saying on the cross he was not shouting my God my God why hast thou forsaken me he locked in on that 22nd Psalm because he found himself there he knew what was happening he knew what was going on and he just locked into that song and I am convinced completely that that's what he he just kept going on that song he just kept going on that song he just held on to it and held on to it right in Hell itself glory to God thank you hallelujah all right Psalm 23 yeah the Lord is my shepherd I shall not want he maketh me to lie down in green pastures he leadeth me beside the still waters he restoreth my soul he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake and I've been texting this fourth verse to my to my family and the partners yay though I walk through we don't camp in the valley of the shadow death we walk through it glory to God yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death not death it's the shadow of death I heard the Lord say to me one does Kenneth the shadow of a dog never bit anybody well the shadow of kovat 19 never bit anybody we have victory over this thing and let me say this to you what if you get it so get healed amen do all the things you're supposed to do render unto Caesar what Caesar's render unto God what God but you take a stand against that disease and instead of we're moping around the house you dance around the house you going to bed and you rest a little while and while you're laying there in the bed just shout glory good I passed a little home for them I have the victory and this is the victory that overcometh the world even my faith will already be to God I have victory over you kovin 19 for you are with me your rod and your staff they comfort me you prepare a table before me in the presence of mine enemies you anoint my head with oil my cup runneth over surely goodness and mercy your you will see Hesed translated more as mercy than any other word in the English Bible translated loving-kindness that it's translated a number of different ways but mercy son of David have mercy on me now remember they did not have a New Testament they were still in the first covenant he was Sally son of David have head for me Jesus said sit America severe the syrophoenician woman who had no covenant with God persistent woman she did three things she said it at him mercy on me now Jesus just kept bringing their own just bringing her own there's no way he could turn her down not when she called for Hesed no way she knew who he was when others didn't he went even payin intention and then she fell on her face and she worshipped him she was a woman out of her time she had heard of Jesus she listened she'd heard of Hesed son analogous to her said for me all right second chronicles chapter 20 now we will begin to see here second chronicles 20 with again reading with the first verbs and read this very carefully it came to pass after this also the children of Moab the children of Amman and with them after besides the Amma rights against your host effete to battle then there came some that told your host of that saying there cometh a great multitude against thee from beyond the sea on this side syria and behold they be in-phase on Tamar which is in in getting and Joseph that feared and set himself to seek the Lord proclaimed the fast throughout all Judea or excuse me all Judah and Judah gathered themselves together to ask help of the Lord even out of all the cities of Judah they came to seek the Lord Jehoshaphat stood in the congregation of Judah and Jerusalem in the house of the Lord before the new court and said O Lord God our fathers are not thou God in heaven and rule is not thou over all the kingdoms of the heathen and in thine hand is there not power and might so that none is able to withstand thee art not thou our God who ditched drive out the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel and gave it to the seed of Abraham the friend now in the book of James in the King James translation for those of you that haven't already heard me talk about this it was translated correctly James was said that Abraham that were talking covenant here Abraham was the friend of God and friend was capitalized now that is a blood covenant term and since people are particularly Western minded people are are completely completely ignorant about ancient covenant practices you know all the rest them said are well you know they just messed it up and put up small F there well it's wrong so go back through your Bible and put a capital F over top of it now it's big it's big here Jesus right at the end after the Covenant meal that Last Supper he said I no longer call you servants I call you friends he just entered into covenant with them at that supper amen he just entered into covenant with him he held that cup first a folded this is Passover me took out the top piece of unleavened bread put it back took out the center 30-pack took out the bottom to put it back which had always been Abraham Isaac and Jacob but this time Carrie Dylan's the Passover ceremony he went back and took out that Center one and he said this is my body broken for you eat it now you know what we're doing when we take communion why we take that and break it then he took that cup and he said all of you drink from this now where would he why would he let me say all of you drinking he had to have Judas drink that cup now remember covenant friend Jesus even entered into what would be known as the salt covenant of the the SAP covenant and he gave Judas his plate for Judas to suffer from it two forms of covenant now when Judas broke that covenant and entered into a covenant for thirty pieces of silver the scripture says he covenant it with them now here's what I want you to get when he came out there that night and kissed him Jesus called him friend he'd already said that during the meal did you hear her don't pay attention to her she don't know she said there's 40 minutes left [Laughter] Judas broke the covenant Jesus never did and then good praise God now that you have that what first was o7 yep Abraham thy friend forever and they dwelt therein and have built the accentuated therein by the name saying if when evil cometh upon us has sword judgment pestilence or famine now look up the word pestilence and find out what it means in most cases its plague what we're experiencing now so was this judgment brother Copeland well it's Matthew 24 and you look up pestilence earthquakes pestilence wars and rumors of wars earthquake business look up the word pestilence right there and it is plague hey come on guys Ifrah just just got through going this massive locust plague this is just part of the last of the last days amen and I won't go into any more than that than than that now then okay let's let's go on down o verse 10 and now behold the children of Ammon and Moab Emmaus yet whom thou wouldst not let Israel invade when they came out of the land of Egypt but they turned from them and destroyed them not behold I say how they reward us to come to cast us out of that possession which thou has given us to inherit okay now verse 14 then jahaziel a levi to the sons of a Seth came the upon him came the Spirit of the Lord in the midst of the congregation and he said hearken ye all Judah and UN habitants of Jerusalem and thou King Jehoshaphat thus saith the Lord be not afraid or this made by reason of this great multitude for the battle is not yours but gods that's what's happening right here in this country this battles not ours it's God's it's God's battle tomorrow you go down against them behold they come up by the cliff of ziz and you shall find them at the end of the brook before the wilderness Jol rjl and you shall not need to fight in this battle I want you to underline that I want you to make marks around it whatever you need to do you shall not need to fight in this battle set your selfs stand you stand you still see the salvation of the Lord o Judah Jerusalem fear not nor be dismayed tomorrow go out against them for the Lord will be with you Josaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground all Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem fell before the Lord worshiping the Lord the Levites of the children the coal hath Adson and so forth and stood up to praise God of Israel with a loud voice on high they rose up early in the morning and went forth into the wilderness of Toccoa right where they were supposed to as they went Josaphat stood and said here Oh Judah you inhabitants of Jerusalem believe in the Lord your God so shall you be established believe his prophets so shall you prosper when he had consulted with the people now I don't know I just glazed over that and kept thinking that God told him to put singers out there he didn't God had already spoken he'd already said it they already believed it amen so when he consulted with the people he appointed singers to the Lord and that should praise the beauty of his holiness as they went out before the army to say praise the Lord for his hesed endures forever his covenant we have covenant his mercy his covenant passing now to get it look at it look at it look at it and when they began to sing and praise the Lord said ambush must they call for his'n they call for covenant mercy glory to God they call for our merciful God hallelujah a man said to me many many years ago he said he said I have a hard time teaching yesterday said I I really don't know how to say it but he said man I can put it this way it's the big person in the Covenant taking care of the little person in the Covenant because when they entered covenant they're equal he said the best I know he said I've ministered in Africa a lot he said this is Hesed you see a big mother elephant now that be God and Big Mama has a little care of behind her that being you and me but hey that's her baby you're God's baby you're God's child and I don't care even those of us that know a little hey in his eyes whiz children where's family and where we have we are and people this is a revelation of covenant that that I'm sad to say that most of the body Christ don't get when you bring it up they get bent out of shape over where joint heirs with Christ and he's God and our covenant in his blood brought up he said let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus who thought it not robbery to be called in equal with God we're not equal with him in a natural physical sense no not even close but we're joint heirs now by the blood by the blood the Almighty God the L said i gan that my covenant as for me my covenant is between me and the god chose to have covenant with us amen and we had sense enough to accept it when we made Jesus the Lord hallelujah they don't set you on fire you woods with breath amen get it when they began say began not after they sang for an hour the moment they began I said the moment they began the moment they began crying I said that's it your asset endures forever yours forever endures forever your handset endures forever you can't sit it away repaired glory to God when they began to sing your asses we're calling fastened the movement they said that word mercy the moment they said that word hazard rumba I mean God knows Graham angels big uns those people turned on themselves they killed one another and they all just stood there wants to fight they just watch this and take place hallelujah has it has it has it his mercy endures forever it says it praise God praise God praise God oh look at the money down there would soldiers bring all their money too for the only thing I can figure is well you know they can't leave this stuff at home give you at home somebody steal it and after all were the biggest Expeditionary Forces in the known world who's gonna bother us these Israelites I don't think so we'll wipe them out in five minutes and go and go to go to town and just get all they have we'll strip there will strip them of everything they have and take that on next us to the to the next conquest i I can't come up with any other idea better than that God was saying yeah that's all right go ahead my people use that just take it on be sure and take it off and I'll get that be sure you know did get gold up out of the ground don't don't be leaving that there somebody steal it right oh you know I'm gonna do get out of the ground so nice David you know that take take it with you my folks can need it got my folks in use it because they're gonna call for a hesed and the moment they say yes it the moment they save mercy endures forever you boys have had it and that storm of angels hit that place now that gives you a really really good idea or what covenant has it is the big guy taking care of the little guy when he calls for it by faith amen now then second Samuel Chapter nine Oh Lord Jesus oh this is why David a man after God's own heart verse 1 saul has been killed jonathan has been killed and now david and jonathan had entered into a blood covenant and they loved one another even as their own souls david said is there yet any that is left of the house of Saul that I may show him acid for Jonathan's sake what was working with him this God covenant desire in him see let me remind you of something else when David and Jonathan entered into that covenant together Gregg you remember the the garment exchange in the covenant ceremony or the gift exchange indicating that all that I have belongs to you if you need it and all that you have belongs to me if I need it and how can you tell the difference between a general and a sergeant leather coat they have on the uniform they wear otherwise unless you know them you can't you can't tell the difference that's government practice now during the days of of Livingstone and unless you have the guys named Danny yes that think it Stanley Livingston in Africa when they were looking for entrance into into the continent of Africa and and their their helpers told him said you'll never get in there until you cut the Covenant with with and and then they learned that the first act was they found out that this king would cut covenant with them now his uniform was a large spear and it had copper windings around that spear that was his rank it showed that he was king and when mr. Stanley entered into covenant his his second and the Kings second dropped a drop each one of his blood into a cup and they drank it and then they went through the ceremony and all that and now they're Blood Brothers that King gave him that spear he thought he'd been taken because he had stomach ulcers and he had a little goat and he drank that goat's milk but that's what that King wanted he wound that goat in exchange for that spear but from then on wherever mrs. Stanley went he walked into a village they all bowed down before him and treated him as king because he had the Kings rank can you see it we where Jesus robe of righteousness that shouting ground is enough now Jonathan the Prince he's in line to be king the Prince put his robe his princely robe on David took his armor off and put his armor on David and they had entered into a blood covenant together this is the biggest thing in David's life it is huge Wow listen guess there yet any that's left in the house of salt that I may show him has said for Jonathan's sake what's it doing it's driving into giving me he he's in covenant and his covenant brother's been killed and solid dead and his it's just eaten insides of it for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son he did hath set on this world his mercy endures forever what about somebody that is in such a mental condition they can't even pray for themselves I don't know what do you do it's a loved one you just put a smile on your face and you just lay hands on them hug them up and say son of David have mercy I'm calling for my covenant rested with you hallelujah that's it I'm calling for Hesed sir I need it today thank you I thank you for it and I praise you for it in the name of Jesus Oh Lord let's worship people let's worship it father we call on our covenant Hesed for this nation today we call on covenant Hesed throughout this country your mercy endures forever son of David son of David Messiah manifests yourself among us manifest yourself to people that don't even know you show them who you are let them see hesed let them see mercy let them see the mercy in your eyes I remember it sir I remember it glory to God I remember back when I first got born again and I you know I thought I didn't know I was a new creature I didn't have any idea and I found two versus not it right at the same time but short span of each other one unsaid it Christ died for the ungodly another boy qualified for that what's everybody else and here then I found that the verses we're talking about His mercy endures forever I don't know it meant had said I wouldn't have known what has it was he sedative he said what no that's it oh I've heard it oh I'll do mercy his mercy endures forever and I thought oh whoa I really do thank you Jesus now we're not done yet and there was in the house of Saul a servant his neighbor's cybo when they had called him under David the King said unto Him art thou Sabah he said that servant is he and the King said is there not yet any of the house of Saul that I may show has said of God to him zyphus said to the King Jonathan yet he has had yet hath yet a Sun which is layman is on his feet the King said unto Him where is he zabba said he's in a house and make here in the son of mal and lo debar and when the king sent and fetched him out of the house and make here the son of a meow from lo debar now I really don't think since he's showing a Hesed on this young man I don't think he sent a you know just a couple of guys down there and you know just run down and get it he's King I think he sent a troop down there the little guy can't walk I see him on sticks his nanny dropped him when it was a baby he couldn't walk I think he said I mean I think they had flags on horses amen and the finish says think so it's going to be just like they said they told me he's going to eat me for lunch and that's what he's going to do he gonna take I'm the last one left and he gon wipe out the whole bunch of us oh man what's gonna happen to me Shh what are we going to do now when Mephibosheth the son of Jonathan the son of Saul came unto David fell on his face and did reverence and David said Mephibosheth and he answered behold thy servant David said unto them fear not I will surely show thee I will surely show thee hesed for Jonathan thy father's sake I will restore thee all the land of Saul i father and you shall eat bread at my table continually you get it did you get it you're gonna eat it the table with the king continually you're not a poor crippled kid anymore oh you're the son of the king glory be to God forevermore and he bowed himself and said what is that service I said look upon such a dead dog as I am then you know David didn't pay attention to that he called his Ibis all servants said unto him I have given under that master's son all that pertained to Saul in all his house he walked out of there richer than any of those other people he not only owned all of Saul's he owned all of Jonathan's land he owned this this this young man in a moment's notice because of his head and because of his covenant with the king or in a gut you know day's time he became rich and once again once again like his father Jonathan once again this young man is Prince of the realm because David put his robe on him and set him at his table and now he's eating out of golden plates oh wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute then said that verse 11 then said Sabah under the king according to all that the Lord the King hath commanded his servant so shall thy servant do as foremost FIB acheté said the king he shall eat at my table as one of the king's sons we are seated raised up together seated in heavenly places on the throne of grace because of God's essen for us Jesus it is his right hand and we are at the right hand of Jesus sitting in that same place of authority and the day is coming and I believe very soon all this thing will wrap up and Hesed will truly be acted out in our presence and will seem as he really is verse 13 now we need to read that the 12 first the fish F had a young son whose name was Mika and all that dwell in the house of zaba were servants unto mephibosheth so now his has said is a gorgeous picture of it Mephibosheth dwelt in Jerusalem for he did eat continually at the Kings table even though it was laid in his feet Psalm 136 we're approaching the close of this Psalm 136 oh you'll see it here I'll give thanks under the Lord he is good for his mirth his Hesed endureth forever o give thanks to the God of gods for his Hesed endures forever o give thanks to the Lord for lords for his Hesed endures forever to him alone who does great wonders for his Hesed endures forever this is a reason he does all these things his Hesed his Hesed that's the reason he's doing all these things hallelujah verse 6 to him that stretched out the earth above the waters for his Hesed endures forever to him that made great lights for his Hesed endures forever the Sun to rule but they he created this planet because of his hesed he wanted his creator he wants to give this thing to somebody he's only he already has everything he needs they had a whole universe out there and he created it all for one man and his wife his Hesed his desire overwhelming desire to give that's what grace is I said that's what grace is God's overwhelming desire to treat you to treat me to treat all of us with hesed to treat all of us like sin never happened praise God thank you Jesus whoa glory be to God thank you Lord Jesus to him that smote Egypt in their firstborn for his hasit endures forever go out Israel from among them for his hasit endures forever with a strong annum of the stretched out arm for his hasit endure forever to him that divided the Red Sea for his has it endured forever and ever and ever 26 verses of hesitant my momma Oh glory be to Jesus shout Amen somebody those of you there at home not me just shouted to the high heavens oh yes that's it on me and I thought mercy well yeah but yeah but it was tested and God the Lord Jesus is acid he's El Shaddai in the flesh he's Jehovah Rapha our healer in the flesh he's Jehovah Jireh and we need him right now he's our supplier in the flesh they are saying that this cook at 19 that the effects of it on this nation will take 18 months to overcome it now not the disease itself but the effect on the economy and so I don't believe that I mean that's that's the general consensus but I don't believe that we have the history of God we have Jehovah Jireh Jehovah Jireh the one who supplies our our our Cuba supplies all of our needs according to his riches in glory by the anointing of Jesus that's a good place shell right there that didn't just to us individually of course it's for us individually but were a nation that was organized for one purpose because we love the Lord Jesus Christ and it was set up in order to freely worship Him and he will never ever forget that I said he will never forget it let's look at Matthew 15 in closing I've already mentioned this but we need to see it Matthew 15 22 verse 21 Jesus went then and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon and behold that means look okay in your mind I look a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts and cried unto Him say how hasit on me Oh Lord called him Lord how the Hansa told me God son of David my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil and he answered her not a word his disciples came and besought him saying send her away for she cries after us jesus answered and said I am NOT sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel then came she she didn't quit I mean she just ran after him this is one persistent woman god bless her and then anyway now you're gonna understand the statement that Jesus made she said she came and worshiped him saying lord help me he answered and said it is not right to take the children's bread and to cast it to dogs she said that true Lord they didn't write yet the dog eat of the crumbs which fall from their master's table then jesus answered and said unto her o woman great is your faith be it unto thee even as you will now what was her faith number one she knew it was Messiah number two she called for Hesed number three she wouldn't quit that's what Jesus was out after out because he really he really had she not exercised that faith and called for hesed he had no other right to minister her he didn't have any covenant but he was looking for those words and I'm telling you when she worshiped him and called him Lord and called him Messiah and asked for a Hesed he said woman great is your faith faith in Him well yeah sure faith in his word yes but faith in his Hesed his mercy endures forever Chloe PETA conference we're getting there oh we're getting there I'm telling you where we're hearing what as it is amen all right mark chapter 10 this is not blind Bartimaeus this is Bartimaeus that was blind 46 they came to Jericho and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples a great number of people and a great number of people blind Bartimaeus the son of Timaeus set by the highway side begging when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth he began to cry out Jesus son of David has it on me many charged him that he should hold his peace but he cried the more great death Saturday that has it on me Jesus Stood Still and commanded him to be called and they called the blind man saying to be of good comfort rise Ecology and he he had a coat of lank it had been he had been checked out by the Levitical priesthood to determine that he was actually blind and not a fake beggar and that coat was his license to beg now here again so many people just scanning the scriptures they don't even know that's in there but look at it we need to see it again and he casting away his garment he already knew what was gonna happen why his faith in hesed he knew this man was Mossad he knew it knew it his heart knew it casting away his garment rose and came to jesus and jesus answered and said unto him what will you that i should do unto thee now why did he ask you that you still have to ask you have not because yes God knows your need before you need it but let's go back to the very beginning God created all this not for himself he can he just immediately gave it to Adam gave it to men so he cannot just just just come in and just do whatever he wants to do he can't do that it's a legal friend to do that any two of you own earth shall agree as touching anything they shall ask it shall be done for them of my father which is in heaven well whatsoever you bind in earth is then bound in heaven whatsoever you loose on earth then is loosed in heaven for where two or three are gathered together in my name there am I in the midst of them why to carry out the agreement the blind man said to him Lord that I might receive my sight jesus said to him go your way your faith your faith made you hope we know it was Jesus anointing what did he tell the woman that was healed of the
