God Is About Ready to Say Something

um we're going to have communion at the end of the message so you can wrestle with your communion elements please do it quietly as i preach matthew chapter 8. anybody ready for a word matthew chapter 8. now when jesus had entered capernaum some of us have been there a centurion came to him pleading with him i want you to see that is the position the church should be in saying lord my servant is lying at home paralyzed dreadfully tormented that's the united states of america and jesus said to him i will come and heal him ceterian answered and said lord i am not worthy that you should come under my roof now watch this but only speak a word speak a word and my servant will be healed for i am a man under authority having soldiers under me and i say this to one go and he goes and to another come and he comes and to my servant do this and he does it and when jesus heard it he marveled and said to those who followed surely i say to you i have not found such great faith even in israel verse 13. then jesus said to the centurion go your way and as you have believed as you have believed as you have believed let it be done for you and his servant was healed that same hour somebody say amen we need a word in this moment we we need a word in this hour we need a word in the midst of the darkness and chaos that surrounds us we need a word from the lord somebody say amen but it must be a living word it must be an alive word it must be a word for this very moment can i take you deeper this morning well there's ten of you okay the word word of god that phrase or the word word in the greek in the new testament is translated by two greek words one would be logos logos is the entire word of god and jesus is called the word but because he encompasses the entire word of god in jesus he is the logos the other second greek word is rhema rhema is a same word as we read in english word or word of god but it dictates a different kind of uh tense it is a now word it is a moment word rhema is a timely word a word that the holy spirit inspires in a moment the rhema word comes out of the logos word but the rhema word brings life power and faith to a specific moment when jesus was being tempted satan says take these stones and make them in the bread and jesus said man shall not live by bread alone but every word every rhema that comes from the mouth of god ephesians 6 take up the sword of the spirits which is the rhema of god it is the word of god hebrews chapter 4 verse 12 says for the word of god is living and it's powerful and as a sharper than to any two-edged sword it is the rhema word of god that we need in this moment right now there's a lot of churches who are preaching the logos a good word but it has not been activated by the holy spirit for the moment that we're in see god sent manna as the people of god were in the wilderness manna fell every day food and it was only good for one day if you tried to live on yesterday's manna you become rancid and make you sick god provided the people of god every single day with fresh manna so they sustain them while they're in the wilderness i am preaching right now if you don't hear what i'm saying to sustain them while they are in the wilderness when you do not have a now word when you when you you do not have a living rhema word when you do not have a word of god in the moment the people of god become sick because they're trying to sustain themselves of what we fed on yesterday cove it changed everything changed america changed the world changed how we voted dramatic pause changed how we interacted with people it changed business it changed the church but in the moment of covet the spirit of god says he was near let him hear what the spirit of god is saying in this moment because god is speaking again to the church right now not hearing what the spirit of god is saying in this moment what we do is try to resurrect yesterday's word let's go back to normal yesterday was great i'm not diminishing yesterday but we need a fresh word for this moment right now we can't re uh rely on yesterday's word to fix today's problems when you're not hearing the spirit of god in the moments then we can't speak into the uh darkness and chaos and with a level of faith expecting the creative power of god's word the rhema to be released in that moment so what you have left are churches that are dying 20 percent they say after covet who attended church before covet will not watch online or neither attend in person ever again 20 and 30 beyond that will only watch online and they do it every two hour maybe four weeks churches that are living on something less than supernatural provision listen what we need right now is the creative power of god to be released through a rhema word a living word and god is wanting to speak right now in this moment god is not silent church he is speaking right now god is about ready to release a new genesis a new beginning god is about ready to release a new resurrection over america and its churches but can only happen if the living word of god is filled with the breath of god hello acts 2 when that breath is breathed on something that is dead the living word of god brings life to it genesis chapter 2 verse 7 and the lord god formed man out of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostril the breath of life and man became a living being ezekiel 37 a valley of dry bones they're all dead it's dusty it's dry it seems impossible and he sets the prophet prophesy speak a word over these dry bones and you will watch the breath of god come into him and they will stand up and become a vast army do you hear what the spirit of god is saying right now either we can hear what the spirit of god is saying or we can be contents with just having form as a church but if we allow the breath of god to breathe breathe a creative rhema word over this moment the church will stand up that was dead it will be resurrected it will become a lazarus church it will become a vast army to occupy the territory that god has given to the church somebody say amen let me show you a couple things this morning there are two genesis in the bible the first genesis is obviously at the beginning of the bible second genesis is john 1. it says in the beginning was the word the logo and the word was with god and the word was god he was in the beginning with god all things were made through him and without him nothing was made that was made in him the word was life and the light was the light of men and the light shined into the darkness and the darkness could not comprehend could not defeat the lights could not defeat the word genesis 1 in the beginning god created the heavens and the earth and the earth was without form and void and darkness was over the face of the deep that's how we feel about what's happening in our world right now and the spirit of god this is what you've got to see and the spirit of god was hovering the spirit of god right now is hovering over our nation over the face of the water now watch something happens between verse 2 and verse 3. then god said let there be light and there was light and god saw the light and it was good and god divided the light and the darkness i wish i would have time to talk about how god is dividing things right now god called light day and darkness he called night so the evening and the morning were of the first day when the rhema word is released is spoken the creator power of god goes forth now follow me god's power responds to god's word oh man i don't know what church i'm in right now maybe i'm just kind of going so deep you're just like okay you got to understand this number one god doesn't need anything to create something he doesn't need anything some of you are despondent today some of you are crushed today some of you are overwhelmed today i came as a spokesman for god to tell you that god doesn't need anything to create something he can create something out of nothing somebody give him a praise right now [Applause] science has come up with this theory to explain the creation of the world and the existence since the start of the world it's called quantum theory it is the mapping out of the universe so it all makes sense because listen you can map things out naturally that's what the church has tried to do through a church growth strategy they have tried to map out things naturally and that will only take you so far because the church isn't an organization it is an organism it is a lie and you can't map out something that's supernatural let's do a little science study this morning okay the universe is still expanding in every direction the universe is expanding at 186 miles per second which is the speed of light why is the universe still expanding at 186 miles per second because god said let there be light listen it is impossible for light to stop expanding do you understand when i'm preaching right because god said let there be it's not singular but it is progressive so it is impossible for light to stop expanding unless the creator behind creation says stop the lights let there be let there be do you understand what i'm preaching right and jesus said about himself in john chapter 8 i am the light of the world jesus is declaring in that moment that you will never be able to stop the expansion of jesus you'll never be able to stop the invasion of life you'll never be able to stop the infiltration of light in the darkness because jesus never said i'm no longer the light of the world i am past present and future the light of the world so it doesn't matter what some crazy liberal professor says five phds behind their name and all their brilliance we've figured out that god doesn't exist you have a three pound gray matter that is between eight inches between your ears and you think you can figure out god give me a break listen it doesn't matter what mr phd thinks he has read himself stupid it doesn't matter that they say well jesus never lived he was a myth he was an allegory it doesn't matter because jesus said i am the light of the world and as soon as he said it the expansion of jesus and his kingdom knows the winds [Applause] and beyond that he says to you and me matthew chapter 5 you are the light of the world so when god uses his creative powers to speak into existence the church the body of christ it doesn't matter what some executive mandate a governor says that you can't have church he doesn't have authority of the church because jesus spoke the church into existence and he said you are the light of the world and he has never said to the church stop being light in fact jesus said i will build my church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it [Applause] so it is time for the church to realize the creative power of god's spoken rhema word that it has inside of itself because god spoke the church into existence i understand that i'm preaching science but i'm preaching a pretty good science right now god forbid god forbid you get cancer in your body medical science will use light radiation to destroy that disease because light destroys darkness first john chapter 3 says for this purpose the son of god was manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil that's what light does light destroys evil it destroys wickedness it destroys corruption it is thought it's time for the church to stop trying to get along with darkness and start being the light which god has created the church to be light light is still moving people it is still moving do you know why watch this anything that god created he has never taken his hands off of i'm going to run right now anything that god created he has never taken his hands off prove it to me by scripture okay ecclesiastes chapter 3 verse 14 i know that whatever god does it shall be forever don't let the devil lie to you whatever god put his hands upon he has never taken it he has not taken it off your life he has not taken it off your family he has not taken it off your children your grandchildren he has not taken off the hope and the future that he's proud he has not taken his hands off the church he has not taken his hands off the united states of america because whatever god does he does forever [Applause] i hope you're enjoying because i'm i'm having a fun time preaching this back to science quantum theory says at some point there was a big bang that's fine that's cool i don't care what term you use but something happened between genesis 1 verse 2 and verse 3. science can map time all the way back to what they call the big bang so how far mathematically can they map out the existence of the universe how far back can they get to the beginning science calls this t equals zero they can go back to the tenth power tenth of the thirty-third power which is one millionth of one billionth of one billion of one billionth after the bang that's how far they can take us mathematically back the reality of the quantum theory every mathematical equation every assumption falls apart at one million one of one billionth of one billionth of one billion before the big bang why because they refused to acknowledge this one thing that god existed before time and god could create something out of nothing come on church that's the god who we worship in the beginning god created the heavens and the earth in the beginning was the word and the word was with god and the word the logos was god what i'm trying to tell you right now is this when you release the creative rhema word of god it doesn't matter if it seems hopeless some of you have come into this building you feel hopeless you feel despondent you feel like nothing's ever going to change it can't happen it is impossible let me remind you of the god of the bible the god of genesis 1 who can create something out of nothing that's why you're here so don't tell me don't you dare tell me god can't heal our land he can heal our eyes god can't do and make a revival happen in america yes he can don't you tell me that god is done with the church no he's going to awaken the church don't you tell me the world is without hope no he's no it's not it god present jesus don't you dare tell me he can't resurrect your life he can't heal your body don't tell me he can't do a miracle in your your family your prodigal son and daughter in the beginning god created and he said let there be so when god speaks god's word is responsible for the increase [Applause] number two i only have 10. god spoke loga spoke into the darkness you don't get it god wasn't afraid of darkness he wasn't overwhelmed by what he saw he didn't run a high because no light existed or he couldn't see the god responded to darkness he wasn't going to leave darkness instead he didn't run from it he spoke into it hello church the reason why darkness left is because god spoke oh you didn't hear me i'll say it again the reason why darkness left is because god spoke the reason why we got darkness over the united states of america the reason why the spirit of antichrist is manifesting itself right here in the state of california the reason is because the body of christ the church of the living god has refused to speak into darkness instead we run from its [Applause] it is the call of the church from the logos word to release a ramus rhema rhema word right now that would penetrate the darkness and the wickedness and the evil of our day but we try to be culturally relevant relevant that's like saying i want to get along with darkness what kind of god would we have if he was content with darkness what kind of god would we have if he would just say i'm going to remove some of it what kind of god would we have he says i'm just going to tolerate it we would have a god that has all power but refuses to use his power when the church refuses to speak into the darkness of our culture we have a church that has access to all power because jesus says i have all authority and i give that authority to you so the church who has authority refuses to use it because we want to get along with darkness hello we want to blend in with darkness how do you blend in with darkness james chapter 4 verse 4 says this therefore if anyone chooses to be friends with the world he is an enemy of god don't blame me that's the word of god we need a courageous church we need a church that knows how to activate a rhema word in this moment to speak into the darkness of culture not worrying about the consequences of where they're going to receive our word or they're going to call you some names they call me names every week i kind of like it i kind of like it they're not going to accept me break my heart this is what john 1 11 says about the word not being accepted he came unto his own and his own did not receive him there's always going to be people who do not receive the word to receive the rhema word for the moment right now but that does not relinquish the call of the church to keep speaking truth i don't have enough time to finish this morning but i just want to cycle back to what i said last week jesus is the answer jesus is the logos but he becomes a living logos as we bring him into today's culture and begin to speak the rhema of jesus over our culture so we speak jesus we speak jesus over darkness we speak jesus over brokenness we speak jesus over sickness we speak jesus over hopelessness because jesus is the only hope of the world if you have your communion let's get ready to take it together [Music] let me read one more scripture and then we'll take communion hebrews chapter 1 says god who at various times in various ways spoke in times past to the fathers by the prophets has in these these days spoken to us the word is speaking to us this morning spoken to us by his son whom he has appointed heir of all things though whom also he made the world who being in the brightness the light of the world of his glory being expressed image of his person and upholding all things by the word of his power the rhema word when he by himself purged our sins it's the cross plus nothing [Music] purged himself purged our per by himself purged our sins set down at the right hand of the majesty on i let's stand to take communion [Music] for i receive from the lord which i also deliver to you the lord jesus on the same night which he was betrayed he took bread and when he had given thanks he broke it and said take heed this is my body which is broken for you do this in remembrance of me let's take the bread together [Music] and in the same way he also took the cup after supper saying this cup as a new covenant an everlasting covenant in my blood this do as often as you drink it in remembrance of the one who set darkness running let's take it together
