Christocentric Meal (January, 22nd) | Exercising The Believer's Authority (2)

[Music] [Music] hello everybody good morning what it did to be a live welcome to the Christocentric meal a daily reflection into our true identity in Christ Jesus a bell damina is my name do me a favor today invite friends loved ones family members let's all Tabernacle around the world of His grace which is able to build you up and give you your inheritance among the sanctified do a favor to a friend this is a new year let's ensure that everybody around us that is known to us is plunged into this revelation knowledge of God's Word man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God today I have right here with me standing in for my wife dr. Rachel once again just email emailed a minute Jesse good to have you here man it's good to be here dad yeah so what shall our view as expected a well so far we've been you know discussing the believers Authority so today the viewer should expect continue to be equipped to use their authority as God has intended to be equipped to use your authority as God intended for you to have it let's pray together father we ask for revelation knowledge for everyone watching this broadcast this morning everyone connecting with us in this time of fellowship we walk in the light even as you are in the light so we have fellowship one with another and we rejoice that this light shines bright in our hearts and in our minds I will give you praise in Jesus name Amen and amen well today we're looking at you know steel on you know words faith authority Jesus expresses another important fact you know yesterday were talking about the value of words I concluded yesterday was saying that our lives follow the dominant words that we say we rise or fall to the degree of that which we say for what we say is what we have so Jesus now expresses another important fact with for us mark 11:23 just in the last part of it okay and doubts not in his heart and doubt not if you remember we said there already you believe once when the gospel comes but you speak three times CCC s alright Matthew 21 21 if you have faith and doubt not so doubt if you have faith and doubt not how is doubt noticed doubt in the heart is expressed in words because only God knows what is in a man's heart first Corinthians chapter 2 verse 10 just but God has revealed them unto us by his spirit for the spirit searcheth all things yea the deep things of god the spirit structure the deep things of god therefore since man cannot know what is in another man's heart demons also cannot know what is in another man's heart see that man don't know what is in another mother so demons can't know what is in a man's heart therefore fear doubt unbelief are expressed via words nobody will know you're in fear nobody will know you're in doubt nobody will know you're in unbelief except you speak it out alright it is words that convey fear doubt and only and it is words that informs demons that there's an environment created for you to operate freely which is an environment of fear doubt and unbelief much of 6:31 therefore take no Thought saying so you take it thought when you say if you do not say it you don't get it yes the moment you verbalize what you are thinking you have owned that thought you've taken that thought Jesus you spoke against worry so how do you take thought by saying you take thought by say therefore doubt and worry can come to you as false you no doubt and worry circumstances will present themselves that will communicate fear I'm worried but these will only have an impact when you see yeah that is Binion situations where there was a situation that wasn't going as planned and at that time I felt an immense pressure but I thought that by just keeping quiet and keeping a positive attitude quietly that I was dealing with the situation but the thing is that pressure is all around especially when things are not going as we planned and that pressure can put you to a point where you end up verbalizing your fear or your doubt so before you get to the point where you're under too much pressure once a situation starts to look you know as not as usual you have to start speaking once you identify that things are going wrong you have to start speaking from that moment what I even do these days is once the situation starts getting tight if I don't know exactly what I'm supposed to be saying or what we do I'm just feeling the pressure I just start speaking in tones just a speaking tone it Orient's you to know you know to remind yourself of who you are and the authority that you have it reminds me of the story of joke because when job before this the bad things happened to him you know he was praising God and all when the bad things happened he was even still trying to hold up a bit so his friends came to him and poisoned his mind and then he gave me finally I started saying the wrong things and he said the wrong things that he kind of you know trapped himself in that space if we just learned to speak the truth of who we are in bad situations that is when we take authority over the situation and acting in faith is not you know denying that is exists but acting in faith is denying its power to continue to control your life so we have to speak on faith each time that's right the situation comes up that's why you know the truth of the matter is so many people so many people actually allow pride to make them feel like what would people think how people look at me if I say what everybody's not see here so why will you out of Pride and trying to please people allow your life to be in you rather speak out even if you seem unpopular yes sound unpopular but say what you know is right because that end of the day when the chips are done everybody will go you're the only one that would be left with the damages or with the result nobody's going to be a part of it high as it was celebrated or you Makati so you better speak up for what you believe in very very powerful just very very powerful not so he says fear worry and doubt come as thoughts as a temptation but will die on born until you say yes you know why because what you refuse to see has no authority over your life anything you don't see does the avatar words and exercising of authority over you and over every situation all right Matthew 10 19 which was just but when they deliver you up take no thoughts how or what he shall speak for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak so the thoughts will come words will be given to you but when doubt and worry come asked thoughts we must not speak emotionally rather we should take world that are programmed doubt worry fear I expressed even in the natural even to with unbelievers most of the people who are successful have come to understand that you program most of your life through what you say and those who are under stories have successfully you know rode like that but how much more us believers who have our words are more potent because of the authority that we have in Christ so if an unbeliever understands that what you say affects your life to some degree we who are words we create our world by our words we have to take much more care to what we say or speak of our lives especially when we are feeling doubtful or worrying or fearful very very very so Luke 1041 and jesus answered and said unto her Martha Martha thou art careful and troubled about many things the troubled about many things too many things that probably you know how did Jesus know mata was worried he knew because she expressed it in words read verse 40 you see where she expressed it but Martha was cumbered about much serving and came to him and said Lord does thou not care that my sister has left me to serve alone bid her therefore that she helped me so she's popular yes look 1211 take no thougts Philippians 4:6 be anxious for nothing the word nothing was translated from the Greek word may this it means no not at all do not see it that is there will be a care a worry but do not act upon it do not give it words let it not be in your words rather what should be in your words should be prayer supplication with Thanksgiving prayer and for the believer in tongues supplication you know you stay in agreement with what the Word of God sees with the mind of God concerning you Oh Thanksgiving that's that's where the believers should be found that's the environment you shouldn't be found worried and I show them struggling no you should be found an environment of Prayer Thanksgiving with supplication acting upon worry is in words see by where the truth is if you let it tabby long enough yeah you will see it yeah if you keep thing keeps coming on you don't cast it down now so the bounce is casting down imaginations if you don't cast it down you will end up saying it you end up giving voice or an expression to that fear that is locked up on your knees which is exactly what I was saying because if you let the thoughts stay with you no matter how you try to think it away it's still very present in your mind you can only dispel it thoughts by speaking the opposite of it and in our case the opposite is the word so if any thoughts that comes that's negative or against the water against the reality of you as a believer you have to speak what the truth of the word is to that you can't think it we all know shake it from your head you must speak because that's where the power is right right our awards carry power see so every thought came to you by words words said to you you cannot control it wasn't a spoken G but you can control what comes out of you wait for us Matthew 10:28 231 our fear not them which kill the body but are not able to kill the soul but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell and not two sparrows sold for a farthing and one of them shall will not fall on the ground without your father but the very hairs of your head are all numbered fear ye not therefore you are more value than many sparrows it is not fear or fearful until you have said it save it very path it is not seeing it you're not fearfully and if you observe once you start speaking fear you get more fearful yes because it has taking hold of you you get more fearful much 8:26 which was just and he saith unto them why are ye fearful o ye of little faith then he arose and rebuked the winds and the sea and there was a great calm the word Claudia denotes or describes excessive dread how did he know that they were fearful look at Matthew 25 and his disciples came to him and awoke him saying lord save us we perish they expressed the fear they expressed the fear Sophia doubt worried eye on born until they are spoken they died on gone once you do not give them expression they died on born but the moment you start speaking then you give God's today you enable them to find expression and that's why you must mind what you say yes daddy it reminds me of you know when we're growing up as these kids or even people who have children now most children because of the world recurring up in on the influence of television social media sometimes you young children have nightmares or from the tales of growing up they have bad dreams all kinds of nightmares and I remember when we were young and we would have my dreams I remember when I used to have bad dreams no matter how you know staying there shivering imagine imagining that whatever is under the bed is coming to get you it's when I would run to my parents and they would tell me that it wasn't you know hearing them say the opposite I had faith in what they would say and it would kind of strengthen me against the fear I'm even more powerful than hearing them say this when I learned to say it for myself because staying there lying down in bed even until present sometimes you have the odd nightmare it's you when you wake up it's not just enough to do be careful and look around and try to make sure you're not you have to speak and say it's not true or whatever you know the opposite of the situation is or I'm not afraid I don't have the spirit of fear you know whatever you have to say and if we teach kids from when they are young to speak to teach them their authority that you can speak against what you've experienced in her dream they'll nightmares will be an issue anymore even the Carmen song that we used to listen to no monsters in my house he really expressed faith there because he in his song he sang when the demons were coming or and he was explaining what the nightmare was he sang don't want no monsters in my house you know that just saying that you know it it gives you a position of yes boldness it gives you boldness here to you know dispel the situation very very very true in Matthew 14 31 and immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand and caught him and said unto Him o thou of little faith wherefore didst thou doubt how did Jesus know Peter doubted his words give him away you know look at Matthew 14 that lets see Peters words but when he saw the wind boisterous he was afraid I'm beginning to sink he cried saying lord save me and immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand and caught him and said unto Him o thou of little faith wherefore didst thou doubt so he gave expression to his fear and doubt by award so you've seen consistently from the Scriptures were being really all the people that we're afraid with so very ill expression all the people that doubted we saw any give it expression via world world world war so doubt and fear are in words if it is left to linger on on your thoughts it will become your world with the next paragraph notice also that you cannot kill thoughts by thoughts you neutralized on all doubt by words yep circumstances would communicate words to you but you now need to hear yourself because if you don't hear yourself that that fear that doubt will still believe mm-hmm you know it's like I always use an illustration if you remember always is this illustration well acts people when I'm preaching us okay everybody keep quiet lazy how to interrupt talks them how to stop talk yes and then I'll add them to count in their minds quietly count 1 to 10 and whatever I say while you're counting say it say Amen say praise the Lord say hallelujah say thank you Jesus circular array while you are talking you committing you can be thinking because what you're saying is contradicting what you're thinking therefore those thoughts are aborted you interrupt thoughts and stop thoughts and kill tops by words yes you speak words circumstances would communicate words to you but you now need to hear yourself with force mighty 14 that you want o thou of little faith the words little faith describes something that was there but did not stay that is you started off by faith but as time went on you doubted and did not stay on in faith so it is possible to start out in faith and along the line veer of into doubt and fear with that scripture mat for 24 hours and he said unto them be careful what you are hearing the measure of thought and study you give to the truth you hear will be the measure of virtue and knowledge that comes back to you and more besides will be given to you who here does the Amplified Bible look at this the measure of 4 and study you give to the truth you hear will be measure of virtue and knowledge that comes back to you so that means the work of faith has to be consistent consistent you stay in the Bible says be sober be vigilant the devil as a as a roaring lion in a trust goes about seeking whom he may devour and this is who resists let us in the faith you stay in the faith to resist you stay in the faith to speak you stay in the faith to pray you don't walk out of the faith you stay in the faith and in the feed there is no fear in the feed there is no doubt in the feed there is no unbelief and that is where the believer ought to steal but instead of looking for faith look unto Jesus the more of Jesus you see the more faith you have because Jesus his faith yes Jesus his faith that should be your case that should be your focus read James 1:25 just but whoso looketh into the perfect law of Liberty and continuous varying the believer has to continue to look you keep looking into the perfect law of Liberty you're looking to the New Testament into the finished work of Christ into you know who you are in Christ into this resources available to the believer you look into the capacity of the believer as revealed in the New Testament the New Testament in the blood of Jesus you look into Christ exactly to see who exactly you are so you continue to pay attention to the world then you will be able to reproduce the same in yes and that's why i teaching series like this or devotional series like this is very important because the bible is is vast there's a there's a wide range of thoughts that's anybody who doesn't understand how to study can't even destroyed themselves from faith with so when you have a series like this or teaching like this that shows you where to focus so what to pull your attention to which is Christ you have to stick with it and until you learn how to do it yourself because this is this is this is fundamental for anybody who wants to understand who they are in Christ or how to walk truly as a believer you can't you can't you can't really underestimate over submit the importance of focusing of looking at Christ directly not at what Moses said or what Isaiah or anybody else said because they had a lot to say but what Jesus said through himself and through his disciples and then even with who wrote the epistles so a series like this shows you where to focus your attention because not all is Christ in the Bible it's just possible cochon see it then you have to learn how to spot them off portions or later - exactly very very critical consistency in the feet walk begins by constantly and consistently filling your mind with God's words who you are in Christ you see when you continue to pay attention to the world then you will be able to reproduce the same in your world and that's why they believe I must be consistent you keep hearing this word you keep studying this one with us and you keep seeing a true reflection of who you are in Christ Jesus altered our whole reality become the totality of your reality in every area of your life what a blessing lead us in the confession today I do not allow fear I do not allow view worry and doubt in my words worry and out in my words I speak faith filled words all the time I speak faith filled words all the time I speak God's Word

with each other to see ourselves here right I'll come grab your daily bread yes don't go without your daily bread I don't do accommodate over tomorrow this is Jesse mail I build I mean an idiot I mean I himself saying that a kingdom of God is in power hello everybody welcome to this segment of the Christocentric meal email demeanor is my name this is a segment where we take time to deal with questions in a special as if we got teachings you have heard from us the things you have learned from the Word of God and we want to make sure you have clarity there are no shady areas because we are in a mission to reintroduce Jesus to this generation equipping believers to know who you are in Christ what you have in Christ and what Christ can do through you and it's important for you to have clarity because as part of you being equipped a fish instructor for says it had ascended he said I ascended up on high and when he ascended he gave gifts to men apostles prophets evangelists pastors and teachers for the perfecting of the saints that's the whole essence of ministry to protect you all of these teachings are coming too perfectly to equip you to bring you to a place where you are arrived and the full knowledge of the Son of God is called the unity of the feet the full knowledge of the Son of God and you can only arrive a dad by accurate knowledge precise knowledge you know thorough teaching of the whole counsel of God as revealed in the New Testament so in my commitment to bring clarity to you and to the body of Christ as a sermon to the body of Christ I am decided to take out the time to answer questions in this segment and as a question we've been dealing with in the past two days that is the third day somebody asks us what should he look out for in making the decision to join a local church and I began anew with the fact that the Church of Jesus is universal but the universal Church of Christ has a local body the tells us God places the solitary in families the scripture tells us do not dismiss the assembling of yourselves together as a manner of some is the other day we took time to look at the book of Colossians 4:16 and he was dealing with the local assembly and is a ISM and when this EP stood is read among you cause that it be read also in the Church of the Laodiceans and that you likewise read a pistol from loud Lucia so there's a local assembly called the church at loud OSHA just like Nick shot at Ephesus and then you will also find that there is a local church in Romans chapter 16 Romans chapter 16 verse number one he is a commander - Febe our sister which is a servant of the church which is at st. Clare cenchrea so there's a local church there in verse four who have for my life lee daniel next onto him not only I give thanks but also all the churches of the Gentiles all the churches local local assemblies within the Gentiles who for my life laid down their necks all right and then he says likewise great the church that is in their house so there are local local assemblages where believers come together to fellowship to be discipled to go to evangelize to pray together and to be accountable to a well defined leadership that's what makes it the local charge you know there's some crazy people going around saying you don't need a pastor Jesus is your pastor you don't need a church I mean you can't go against clear-cut well-defined doctrinal apostolic instructions except you're not a believer of Jesus you know you can't go against them any believer who goes against well-defined apostolic instructions is not serious it is not somebody is a very dangerous species it's not somebody to hang around you you must belong to a gathering of believers where you are both committed to the Word of God committed to spiritual growth and committed to accountability to a well-defined leadership and I'm going to talk about you know in a few minutes and that's what it took time in scripture to show us local churches all over the place in the EP stores don't forget Jesus in module meetings is where two or three are gathered together in my name so the local church begins with in Godwin or two to three people that's what we always say to the peoples that our campuses around the world you don't need 10,000 people to study charge you just need two to three people yourself and to other people that you have shared Christ with who are born again not number of people sitting together to study is already a local assembly that's how it begins and then from there you know grow and mature and I'm gonna look at that in another few minutes but if you observe carefully he talked about the churches in different locations all right so we began to see that it charts and gathering of believers in a particular location and then we said it must be prayerfully and purposely you know taken into consideration the decision belonging to a local church you know it's it's crazy not in our world today a lot of people in a criteria for choosing a church is not even scriptural first of all and number three it doesn't even make any Bible sense somebody says I'm believing it chart because my family goes there that's not even to go to a local church and somebody also says how we got Richard because you're just a well-dressed they are protocol address they're instrumental it's play very good music and a dance you can also go to a nightclub and have nice music every day that doesn't define or charge so that's why the criteria for choosing each one is critical you don't want to waste another 365 days of your life translate that in two hours in two minutes and in two seconds your final that a major part of your life is wasted especially if any please call it charge we are certain things that are doctrinal is supposed to be found here I know there and some places called churches are just town halls for lack of a better word they are just event centers where people just come and have events a real charge must have these criterias and the first one we looked at the other day is in order for a to consider a charge the first question you wanna ask yourself is do I want to go spiritual the other first question do I want to grow spiritually and I did some Torah work on that me two days ago yesterday we looked at do you want to consistently see the divine hand of God and victory in the affairs of your life because it showed you obtained and the kind of food and ward and diet you're exposed to will he tell me where I live a victorious life or defeated life nobody says you're not born again in fact even that is critical because the kind of church you go with the time when I get born again organ you don't get born again because being born again will be a response to a message what message are you hearing it's not every message that saves is a message of Christ that saves is death burial and resurrection not just any message so again that's important in determining when I get born again or not in the tummy where I live victoriously or not getting me determined by the church where you attend or the church way you do not attend that's critical and the third question you ask yourself to be able to make any decision on a local church to attend is do you want to walk in the will of God for your life do you want to walk in the will of God for your life and if yes then you must choose a local charge that is in the will of God not every church is in the will of God you know when Jesus came Jesus did not introduce a concept of charge there were churches before Jesus came the word church is the word ecclesia call that once a gathering together you know there were people I mean they were churches before Jesus came that's what when Jesus showed up in Matthew in the Incarnation he said I will build my church it didn't sell build a church this is my church meaning there were other churches there were not his George just like we have today there are many churches then I'm not his church so many people think because a place is calling charge it is Jesus's charge now it shows doesn't necessarily means Jesus's charge there are many churches that are not Jesus his churches that's what Jesus would say every beauty my own church I would be imagine not our beauty church but my church my own and the gates of Hell cannot prevail against it and the building of his chart was going to be a product of his resurrection that means that the message that will be central in his church will be the message of his triumph over death over sin on over Satan which is the resurrection of Jesus death burial resurrection the price that he paid for weakened Solomon to God into an inseparable union that Union is what we call the church between deity and humanity so he says I will build my church so the Church of Jesus is a church that is in the will of God and how can you tell that in local chart is in the will of God well a chart that is in the will of God will be a charge that is giving very you know committed to the cause of evangelism how do we know that evangelism is the will of God and our tells us intimately that God will have all men to be saved for this is the will of God to have all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth so two things a church that is in the will of God its primary assignment will be to get people born again if Vangelis it will be very big in that church everybody will have to be trained and involved in evangelism that is the will of God to have all men to be saved so if any church one is vandalism is not emphasized it just happens once in a while if people like it then you're not in the will of God because to be in the will of God evangelism is critical it expressly revealed to us in the doctrine of Scripture that the will of God is to have all men to be saved why did Jesus come to save his people from their sins what is the gospel about the power of God unto salvation so if at the hub of a church emphasis is not evangelism that church there might not be in the will of God I didn't say they are not in envelope as he might not because there could be churches that are actually part of God's plan and they are sound watches but they are not making emphasis on evangelism which is the will of God and it is a church like them then that church needs to retrace their steps because evangelism is and a heartbeat of God every believer must be trained and equipped to win source you are saved and given the Ministry of reconciliation to reconcile the world back to God so a charge that you have to consider attending must be a church where you will be given an enabling environment to function in the will of God and one of those very basic things to look out for in a local church is evangelism reaching the loss to be sure that it is Mohammed levity or taken as a pastime but his approach the deep sense of purpose evangelism is approached with a deep sense of purpose and responsibility you know after Jesus rose from the name that was the Great Commission he gave to the church the Great Commission in Matthew chapter 28 verse number 18 he says in magic 28 eating and this is after he has risen from the dead he says to them Jesus came and spake unto them saying all power is given unto me in heaven and in earth go ye therefore and teach all nations go and teach all nations baptizing them your Father Son and the Holy Ghost 20 teaching them to observe all things teaching them not entertaining them teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you and lo I am with you always even unto the end of the world a man that's a great Commission after he rushed on the bed big biggest thing on his heart is to get the purpose which he died to reach everybody for whom he died the whole world seven billion people must be reached he's our tax and all believers must have her all hands on deck but the livers shy away because they in churches where they are not trade then churches women just watch an act of the pastor is the act only a spectators it was only acting and they clapping celebrating but that's not the way God designed for his one charge to be the Church of Jesus must be a training ground where every believer is trained to win souls to go out get people born again and disciple them in the knowledge of Christ you know the things you have received of me among many witnesses the same commit thou to faithful men who also commit to honest does the way the Church of Jesus you supposed to function you know and in that church you are attending right now doesn't have all of these you want to look into it and prayerfully reconsider because a charged that is in the will of God his the only change I will enable you yourself to be in the will of God and the criteria for that is soon winning that's basic mark 16:15 he says after he rose from the dead and he said unto them go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature into all the world and preach the gospel the gospel to every creature not to go and preach business motivation not to go and preach business success Keys go into all the world and preach the gospel the gospel is the preaching of his death burial and resurrection and that should be the message of any charge that is Jesus is charged oh that is a children sin the will of God he that believeth and is baptized shall be saved but he that believeth not shall be damned and this I shall follow them that believe in my name shall they cast out Devils they shall speak with new tongues they shall take up serpents and if they drink any deadly thing it shall not hurt them they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover so any church that is in the will of God cannot afford to treat the Great Commission with levity that shot cannot afford to treat the Great Commission with levity because for that charge to be in the will of God that church must be committed to serving evangelism evangelism enables you to stay in the will of God for your life and it starts with obeying God in the areas of general instructions and payin attention to light in his word which comes with no specific instructions that's where it begins number one evangelism is you don't need fasting and prayer to know where actually venue lies you don't need to kneel down and wait for ten hours it Clare called instruction go he told us to go sometimes I jokingly say to my friends when they say Oh dr. diamond oh you're traveling a lot I said to them jesus said go and never said come back so we're in the go every time he says were going believers are supposed to be in the goal he says we shall receive power in Acts chapter 1 verse 2 we shall receive power after the Holy Ghost is come upon you and you shall be witnesses the essence for power is to evangelize you shall be witnesses unto me in Jerusalem Judea Samaria and unto the uttermost part of the earth so believers must be given to evangelism so if you want to stay the will of God for your life you have to be in a journey that will help you to start out by obeying the general instructions that we have in the Oh God when you live in life of obedience to instructions you are in the will of God instructions of Scripture like evangelism so there's a 13 to consider in deciding to belong to a local the fourth thing to consider is another question do you want to live far above the forces of darkness of this world do you want to live far above the forces of darkness of this world that is key in considering belonging to a local church you can be in a church where demons are beating you every day where you're the one they are giving difference in all the time every time they stop praying you're the one following vomiting scrolling on the flow there's no victory in that kind of life there's no victory in that kind of life and it's not because it their will is powerful it's not because you're a bad person it's because you ain't in church where they have failed in equipping you where they have failed in equipping the Bible tells us be sober be vigilant they will your adversary goes about like a roaring lion seeking whom to devour he doesn't devour everybody there are people he devours and those are people that are ignorant they're people that are not trying there are people that are not taught when the church you attend is an entertainment center where you watch people acting all kinds of drama and you watch all kinds of stage things how can you grow spiritually how can you mature how can you come to a place where you are well grounded people go to university and after four years the Graduate architects after four is a graduate law having doctors after four isn't graduate engineers and after six years in graduate doctors lawyers why do they have to spend all that time in school because they are being equipped to serve a function in society it's an indictment if you're in a church for 10 years and you cannot defend the meaning of Christianity it's an indictment for any church for 10 years and you can get somebody born again it's an indictment on you and the church where you are 10 if a church for 10 years and you cannot cast out demons you can heal the sick it's an indictment on your Christianity that means you're not you know enjoy a born-again that what not to be the charge ought to be a training ground where where ministers on the gospel are mass-produced raised raised raised because of training intense training intense training intense training the essence for ministry is finished equipping the Saints to do the work of ministry so do you want to live far above the forces of darkness if your answer is yes then you must attend the local church where there's an atmosphere of love joy and faith in God's Word an atmosphere of love joy and faith in God's world why why must you being in such a church where there's an atmosphere of faith joy love in God's world because the system of this world is ruled by the god of this world the devil in 2nd Corinthians chapter 4 verse 4 in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of them which believe not lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ who is the image of God should shine on today the god of this world blind spiritual blindness is ignorance that's you you receive spiritual understanding when teaching starts coming so if any church were even the god of this world has influence because all the believers in that local assembly are in ignorance they are under the influence of the god of this world and this is the reason why he keeps them in blindness he said that they will never see the glorious light of the gospel of Christ in Ephesians chapter 2 verse 3 wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world according to the Prince of the power of the air the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience there is a spirit at work in the children of disobedience and that spirit controls the world system so when you start thinking like the world your mind is not renewed your ignorant your spiritual darkness because nobody's teaching you the world you're not growing you're not involving Spiritual Exercises so you are not developing your just be you know you're just a a false brother or sister or you're just brought into the church without knowing your left from your you become a victim of the influence of the god of this world he blinds men's eyes to keep them in the Ovilus the believer will only win in life all the time by putting on the whole armor of God you only win by putting on the whole armor of God in Ephesians chapter 6 verse 10 we see a listing of the whole armour of God that a believer has to put on finally my brethren be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might you put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil putting on the whole armor of God is knowledge the communication of your feet Philemon 6 becomes effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing that is in Christ you can have something boy if you're ignorant of it you can't function in it a lot of the Divas are fully armed but you don't know what they carry so the devil is beating them around you know now he says we wrestle not against flesh and blood so churches have tried to fight physical enemies I in the wrong fight we wrestle not against flesh and blood no human being is your enemy God wants all men to be saved God wants all men to be saved so much about Satan is using them that's why you take authority over the Satan and once you are in charge of the seat and you can use them you can't use them even if you uses them don't be effective in reaching you see that's why intrical sorry you must understand your authority as a believer to live a victorious Christian life and that comes by teaching you put on the whole armor of God then you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil and then he gives you a list of those he says wrestling against flesh and blood but against principalities powers rulers of Darkness beasts demos rule in darkness even all spiritual ignorance when you don't know the world when you are not taught in the world when your eyes are blind spiritual cause you love teaching you lack training you learn revelation knowledge so the rulers of Darkness control the manipulate your world because animals so you're toast to and through with every wind of doctrine because you are not equipped you're not grounded you are not sound you're not established you only charge where you eat food every service you're in a church where you collect gift parts in all services you're in a church where just flabbergasted Magha orchestra but you're fully ignorant when you under their will and left in the battleground you don't even know where to start from nobody's equipping you nobody is equipping you you're not growing you're not learning you can't afford to waste your time in that place called charge where you are not taught you are not equipped you're not trained by the Word of God and there a number of churches where people are working a number of pastors shooting their assignment to teach believe us always believe us in the message of Christ a new testing their number of them that are rising all over the world very strong and very focused and very impactful they are rising everywhere you can't afford to be wasting your time in a tradition and in a religious organization called charge you've got to go to a place where you are fed where you are equipped why you're trained and he says you put on the whole armor of God to stand against the wiles of the devil of some darkness against which all we can s in high places and he says you take upon you the whole armor of God they may be able to withstand in the evil day and I've been doing all to stand you stand and then he resists and therefore having your loins get about your truth knowledge your loins got about the truth knowledge all right I'm having on the breastplate of righteousness the revelation of righteousness that is a whole training of in the entire scriptures you doesn't doctrine of righteousness you've got good teachers where you're taught righteousness my faith and when my walks where you're equipped based on what Christ has done the finished work of Christ brother posted on me found in him not having my own righteousness which is of the law but the righteousness reaching of Christ and it is your feet show me the preparation of the gospel of peace evangelism so women it children is given to winning souls the gospel of peace above all taking the shield of faith where you're so established in the revelation of Jesus because Jesus is the author on definition of faith so you become shielded against every fiery dot of the weekend against every fiery dot you take on the helmet of salvation when you Ahava is sound understanding that you are eternally saved wait we know they were eternally saved all of that knowledge is putting on the elbow and using it when you need to use it to defend yourself to defend your position under Sun of the Spirit which is the water God and let me add a crane always with all prayer you've gotta be in a church where all these animals are activated by training by teaching web believers are fully armed by understanding not a church where they just seem dumb dance five hours and you don't know anything you walk out of the
