Just One Word

we are in a moment in time where there are so many voices and noise that surrounds us voices in and out of the church trying to gain your attention to create marketable sound bytes so that you can post and like the volume of voices in the world right now is becoming deafening we are losing our ability to hear because everybody is saying something i've just preached right there what we are missing in this moment is not volume but we are missing the voice of god a word from god i mean a true word from god a rhema word a living word we're living in a moment in time much like in the old testament the book of samuel where it says this the word of god was rare in those days everyone has something to say everybody has a sermon everybody is a teacher everybody has a talk everybody has a thoughts and the church has become an echo chamber and the sound is bouncing off the walls and everything sounds the same what we need in this moment right now is a word you didn't hear me what we need in this moment is a dialogue that transcends human rationale and logic we got to stop this three step to this and five steps to that we need in this moment of time a word from god because in the reality of this moment right now a word from god is rare every sunday i try to bring to you what the spirit of god is saying to me that week i used to do this and i'm not criticizing people who do but i used to plan out whether it's six months or a year in advance of what sermon series would be but i don't find that relevant in this moment when the word of god is rare i am not going to serve you day old bread i'm not going to give you a free internet download i'm not going to strategize what i think you need to hear your time and my time is more important than that i have to give you a word from god i believe that god did something this week in me in my sermon preparation that brought me back to the value of having ears to hear what the spirit of god is saying he who has an ear let me hear what the spirit of god is saying this week is as if god shut the heavens and me hearing the voice of god usually not a challenge for me wednesday is my day that i sit down and begin to put pen to paper of what god is saying to this body of believers here at destiny nothing that day the heavens were silenced thursday friday saturday god what are you saying i need a word i need heaven to provide fresh manna so i can feed the flock god's people aren't coming here for fast food that has no substance too many churches like that anyway god's people aren't coming here for reheated leftovers that we served yesterday that wasn't that's not good enough that may work at your house but that's not going to work in god's house because we live in a day we live in a moment where the word of god is rare god i need to hear from you if you don't give me anything fresh both of us are going to just look really stupid on sunday me standing there because i ain't going to do it all reputations are at stake god i need a word from you you see i am a gospel preacher i am not a motivational speaker i am not a systematic teacher that can take any passage of scripture and teach it to their students i am a gospel preacher and my responsibility is to be a conduit from the heart of god into your life it i am absolutely dependent upon a fresh inspiration from the holy spirit you did not come to hear a man's opinion you don't have to come here to hear a man's opinion you can do that on fox news or cnn or facebook on youtube whatever but you don't need it here i am a gospel a preacher i'm not here to entertain you i'm not here to tell you jokes or cute stories i am here as a gospel preacher to declare the infallible word of god over your life that is my responsibility and i do it without concern of whether you will like me or approve of what i say i would like for you to like me but that is not the requirement of my calling on my life i am a gospel preacher i am not here to win friends and influence people my self-worth is not based on your approval i am not intoxicated by the praise of people i am a gospel preacher i am an agent of god i'm an ambassador of the kingdom of god and my responsibility is to declare the word of god as he says it when he says it and how he says it and i will be held accountable for that i am a gospel preacher i'm not here to give you a good talk to make you feel good but i am here to preach the word and allow the word of god to convince and convict you if you leave this place without experience the presence of god without hearing from god we have absolutely failed in what we did this morning we need a clarion voice a clear sound coming from the pulpits of america that cuts through the precinct pretense of the minutia that we call church you don't hear me i am a gospel preacher in a moment where a word from the lord is rare so i believe that god allowed me this week to be divinely frustrated to shut up the heavens to keep me in a holding powder to allow heaven to speak silence to allow me to understand once again the importance of the preacher to stand in front of you and be able to say with confidence and conviction thus saith the lord and operate in such a strong anointing that it breaks the yoke of bondage in your life in our community in our state and in our nation that is a gospel preacher i'd rather say nothing i'd rather be the fool this morning than waste your time trying to tickle your ears as i woke saturday morning there was one word the spirit of god said for me to preach the spirit of god impressed upon me one word and one word only the spirit of god said to me greg this is not about oratory skills this isn't about your passion this isn't about your conviction this is about one thing and it's always been about one thing and the one thing is the only thing and the only thing is jesus jesus it starts with jesus we stay with jesus and we end with jesus somebody shout jesus in his place [Applause] the apostle paul says in first corinthians chapter 2 for i am determined not to know anything among you except jesus christ and him crucified that's it that is it this morning i speak jesus i speak it over your life i speak jesus over your family i speak jesus over your future i speak jesus over this nation over our state and our community i don't speak the cute name of jesus i don't speak the culturally relevant name of jesus i don't speak the weak name of jesus i speak the powerful name of jesus therefore god has highly exalted him and given him a name that is above every name that at the name of jesus every knee shall bow those in heaven those on earth and those under earth that every tongue should confess that jesus christ is lord to the glory of god the father i speak jesus somebody shout his name [Applause] there's never been a greater moment in time for us to speak jesus as i preached last week evil and wickedness is manifesting self in a greater capacity than we have ever seen it is not an exaggeration to say that we're living in a modern day sodom and gomorrah the raping of the innocence of our youth godly values and destroying our nation's biblical foundations so that we can pleasurize ourselves by indulging the carnality of our flesh that is an abomination under god the perversion of sexuality finds its origin in sodom and gomorrah lifestyles that are being taught to our children to confuse them of god's original intent that he created the male and female lbgtq presents itself as a loving accepting community but their agenda is anti-god and anti-bible their agenda is to capture the hearts and minds of your children and grandchildren to brainwash them to believe that god actually is going back on his word that he has an alternative plan and sadly church leaders pastors and so-called christians have bought into that lie the devil is a liar our governor signed the bill allowing children to hide sex change operations and abortions from their parents and if you did not vote yes to recall that wicked man shame on you shame on you our governor signed the bill this week is the most wicked vile anti-god abortion bill ever signed in the history of our nation establishing what he calls the california future of abortion council to assist listen to this out of state people seeking abortion services here you thought you could contain the evil of california to its state lines i told you you cannot run from evil in washington dc this week the house passed the bill and moving it on to the senate that would codify roe v versus way to the into u.s law requiring all 50 states to provide abortion services you see evil doesn't know state lines it doesn't see red and blue it doesn't recognize conservative liberal evil wants complete and total conquest but you listen to me you listen to this gospel preacher this morning wicked and evil lawmakers might be able to pass legislation just because you make something legal ma'am sir doesn't make it right it is sin in the eyes of god and that's what you are participating in [Applause] we are living in the moment of noah where it says in genesis chapter 6 there was corruption before god and the earth was filled with violence so god sent a flood to destroy listen to me right now because there's a parallel destroy the wickedness and evil of that moment that my mankind might have a new genesis a new beginning do you understand satan has never had an original thought so he decided to send a flood of evil to destroy everything that is good and righteous to create a new genesis of his own a new beginning and that is what we're seeing right before our eyes right now there is a flood of evil that knows no boundary a flood of evil that knows no limits evil wants the corrupt it wants to confuse it wants to pollute and it wants the control the flood of evil is progressive it doesn't stay within the riverbeds of what we think evil should stay with it evil breaks every natural barrier and the tolerant torrent river is is going to destroy everything that is in its path satan has convinced us that we are enlightened people in this moment it's just a rerun of the garden people there is no need our society says for an antiquated book there is no need for a distance god listen god is not distance he is distinct and the reason why you don't know he's god because you don't understand his distinction god is an antiquated he is the ancient of days he is the alpha and the omega the beginning in the end it starts with god it ends with god and he owns everything in between the beginning and the end and just like in the garden when men fell we have fallen into the same trap we believe that we can become as god like god so we create a god without any uh requirements we create a god with no boundaries we create a god that it doesn't have righteousness in it and every man is turning to their own ways we as a people and as a nation have developed an independence from the god who created us and we have in our own eyes become god do you understand we can convince ourselves of anything the past 18 months should prove that that we just believe anything that we hear coming through a phone or a tv you need to understand this right and wrong isn't based on a consensus i don't care if you're president governor or if you can control congress you're not god and you do not get to legislate god and his laws what do we do in this moment where is a tidal wave of wickedness what do we do to fight back what do we do to stand our ground i have preached over the past 18 months of what we ought to do we have to stand up we have to speak up we have to be bold we have to be courageous we have to engage we have to take back what the enemy has stolen and we have to do it every way that we can we need spirit empowered believers in this place like the book of acts we need to be salts and lights the healing agent of god in our society signs and wonders and the miraculous the role of the church our civic responsibility all of the above all inclusive everything but you can do everything you want to do but if you don't do not do the one thing that i'm going to preach right now all of our efforts are in vain the answer isn't better governments and more christian politicians the answer is that educating more civic mind christians the answer is a bigger church buildings filled with more people the answer isn't another podcast the answer isn't another worship song the answer is a better marketing there is only one answer and it must be at the core of everything we do there is one answer and there must be realized by everybody in this room every believer every pastor every church leader there is one answer for our nation one answer for our state one answer for corrupt government one answer for our schools one answer for our family and our future and the answer has always been the answer jesus is the answer [Applause] for god so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life for god did not send his son into the world to condemn the world but that the world through him might be say jesus is the answer the only word that can heal our nation is jesus the only word that can save our nation is jesus the only word that can bring light in the midst of darkness and corruption is jesus oh [Applause] we need a word we need a word we need a word we need the word we need the word in the beginning was the word and the word was with god and the word was god and the word became flesh and dwelt among us and we beheld his glory we need to see the glory of god revealed one more to and the glory of the only begotten of the father full of grace and truth jesus is not a word jesus is the word oh i'm preaching better than you're talking right now in a moment where the word of god is rare we need a fresh revelation of the word we need the word jesus to become flesh again in this moment so that we can behold the glory of god we need a new manifestation of jesus a new manifestation of grace and truth you cannot have jesus without both grace and truth you will distort jesus if you don't have grace and you will compromise jesus if you don't have truth let me tell you let me tell you some good news let me tell you some really good news the problem evil has in this moment is jesus always gets in the way of evil oh somebody should shout amen right there the cross of jesus is planted firmly at the gates of hell there is no way to avoid jesus call him whatever you want to call him call him a good teacher call him a prophet call calling a myth an allegory the world has tried to change and confuse jesus identity call him whatever you want but your opinion doesn't change who he is what matters in this moment who jesus says he is and he says i am the bread of life i am the light of the world i am the door i am the good shepherd i am the resurrection and the light and john 14 says i am the way the truth and the life no one comes to the father except through me shout jesus the son of god became the son of man so sons of man could become the sons of god jesus is the only answer for this world give me jesus you can have everything this world has to offer but give me jesus this gospel preacher this gospel preacher is going to preach jesus i am going to lift up jesus because jesus said if i be lifted up i will draw all men unto myself not safe comfortable jesus that sweet little jesus not culturally relevant jesus no not any kind of modern day jesus i am going to preach jesus of the word god incarnate becoming flesh and dwelling among the very son of god being born of a virgin and you shall call his name jesus and he shall save his people from their sin we are going to preach jesus he lived a sinless life he was beaten he was whipped he was cursed he was sped upon he was stretched out and nailed to a cross he was crucified and then he was buried but on the third day he rose again somebody say jesus [Applause] we preach jesus as the hope of the world we preach jesus boldly we preach jesus with conviction we preach jesus that is uncompromising to sin and evil romans chapter 1 verse 16 says for i am not ashamed of the gospel of christ for it is the power of god to salvation for everyone who believes salvation is found in no other name say the name of jesus we cannot save ourselves government joe can't do it nancy can't do it gavin can't save us education can't save it science god knows fouchy can't save us economics can't save it bill gates can't save it there is only one thing that can destroy the works of satan and it's jesus first john chapter 3 says for this purpose the son of god was manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil jesus is the answer [Applause] if we only have government reform without jesus we'll just corrupt ourselves again if we only have social justice without jesus there will never be the transformation of the human heart if we only have right behavior without jesus all we will have is dead religion of list of do's and don'ts the only way to bring reformation to government the only way to bring healing to our nation the only way to bring righteousness to our culture is through the saving work of jesus christ he shall save his people from their sins do you understand what i'm preaching this morning i want you to stand we're not closing so don't leave so i speak jesus whatever you need in your life i speak jesus over that jesus is more than able jesus is more than enough jesus is your healer jesus is your peace jesus is our provider jesus is our deliverer i speak jesus at the mention of the name of jesus every demon begins to triple he
