Keith Moore - What Love Does - Pt.9 (Love That Abounds)

openings let's go to John the third chapter and then we'll be going over to first John and let's pray and release our faith you're going to believe with me this evening you know this affects a lot of folks and then there's a lot of people that will join look listen and look later you know tomorrow next week week after and so the folks that are here live you have a responsibility with me to believe for the light and utterance and life to come out right that will affect if somebody's needing something next year and they're watching it right or with technology ten years from now so you're believing with me let's let's pray and then we'll read this and get right into this father in the name of Jesus we agree together as touching this asking you for utterance for light for life for truth that makes free right now Lord we're not looking at each other we're looking to you and we're expecting not to hear from a man but to hear from you lord I pray speak through me let it be beyond me give us all eyes that see and ears that hear in a heart that receives let there come answers to questions help and strengthen healing and direction for right now show us the next steps to take and prepare us and equip us for the next parts and the next phases of your call and plan and we'll give you all the glory and praise and will not be forgetful hearers or hearers only but by your grace will do what you say and we know as we do we will be blessed you're faithful to watch over your word and perform it in our lives in Jesus name Amen thank you much said out loud I'm a doer I'm a doer I'm a doer of the word of God thanks be unto God John 13 we've been on this for quite a few Friday nights I'm excited like I usually am about this anybody excited by faith this is what I'm excited about well by faith you're excited mm-hmm I'm checking to see you know the Spirit of God said I believe through Paul in the book of Hebrews he talked about we've been reading these chapters haven't we Hebrews see people in reading Hebrews he said some things he wanted to say to him he says what's hard to be uttered seeing you are dull of hearing so the the what's the opposite of dull of hearing then be sharp in Kiev if you're sharp and keen of hearing then it's easier for things to come out and be safe if you're dull of hearing it's harder for things to come out that's not a man's idea that's the Bible that's the truth and I and I have first-hand experience with that and it's oh it's all of us together it's not a one-sided deal and passivity is a big enemy of the church they're people we live in the entertainment generation don't we where people are accustomed to coming in and turn in something on and flopping down and doing nothing absolutely nothing and you do with that enough long enough you get in that mode where you can come to church do the same thing you just come flop down and go WOW me and if it's not happening quick enough your your thumb is twitching you're trying to change the channel but you can't because it's live at church but this is not just the ministry problem this is a receiver problem right and we're thankful the Lord teaches us better than that around here don't only so you're you're with me is what I'm saying right yuh-huh you're active you're with me we're believing together John 13 and I know Branson is and I know our folks in the internet you're with me you're not just passively sitting by John 13 and 34 Jesus gave us the New Testament commandment I don't know of anything more important than this in the whole Word of God jesus said John 13:34 he said a new commandment I gives you that you love one another as I have loved you that you also love one another he tells us to love one another he tells us who to love he still might each other you fellow Christian doesn't mean you can't love people on the outside but the New Testament command is specifically for you and I to love each other and to love each other a certain way as he has loved us so we'd have to find that out how he's how he has and does love us wouldn't we in order to love each other the same way and the good news is that if you've been born again that that very same love that he loved us with is in us that's that's a part of being born again Romans 5 says the love of God has been shed abroad in your heart by the Holy Spirit praise God set out light if you're a believer well excuse me I was going to say if you're a believer say it out loud my mistake you are ready though I can tell that you you you ready you right said out loud the love of God is shed abroad in my heart I can love others as he has loved me because his love is in me you believe that that's what the Bible says now if you're not born again that's why I was going to say if you're believing if you're not born again that love is not in you you can't love people like he loves you unless you're born again you cannot other religions other philosophies I don't care how much of a good person you try to be impossible you can't do it because it's not in you there's only one way to get this love in you that's by faith in Jesus being born again when you're born again you didn't just have a change of mind you became a new creation inside a new creation old things are passed away well we know that's not outside because outside your body is the same you still think the same in a lot of ways and your minds got to get renewed but something inside you happened amazingly radically when you've been born again and part of it was this love coming in you this love that God is this love that Jesus loves us with is in us now you can ignore it you can push it down you can override it and be selfish anytime you want to or you can yield to it and let it dominate you thinking let it dominate and govern your words and your actions how many think you lettuce love governor he said by this shall all men know that you are my disciples if you have love one to another look in the fifteenth chapter of John just over a page or so he said in verse ten well verse nine excuse me verse 9 of chapter 15 as the father has loved me so have I loved you continue in my love can you see the sequence the father loved the son the son has loved us we love each other right is it all and that all comes from him if you keep my Commandments you shall abide in my love you live in it you dwell in it you stay in it even as I have kept my father's Commandments and abide in his love these things have I spoken unto you that my joy might remain in you and that your joy might be full now this is one of the big indicators that it really is the love of God there's a whole lot of church anity religiosity that is marked by heaviness and depression and there's a lot of talk about suffering and sacrifice in fact that's about all you hear but you don't see the joy and so that tells you it's not real it's religion it's man's tradition but it's not the real love of God missus well is it is it part of Christianity sacrifice and and giving yes it is but it's a gladly sacrificing hmm because of your motivation which is love nobody's making you do it you're not trying to do it to prove how spiritual you are you're not trying to impress somebody with how much you're willing to sacrifice oh that's a bunch of junk did you hear me sighs first Corinthians 13 tells us that you can give everything you've got to feed people and burn your body and it means not one thing it can be completely in vain if you don't do it in love and not you know we talked about this already if if this is the first time you've been with us we've already already covered a lot of ground I'd encourage you to go and get the CDs the DVDs download it off the internet won't cost you anything and and get caught up because we've talked about what love is not it's not just a feeling it's not obsession it's not a bunch of other things it's love has been one of the most convoluted and diluted and twisted things in society how many songs are people written about love hmm you hear all kind of stuff right and and most of us just goofy it's wrong and how many movies have been made about love and how many books about love love love and the truth is most folks are just confused maybe they've got an idea they think what it is but God is love God is love and one thing that can help us to separate the junk from the real is the joy somebody say joy when Jesus is telling us the New Testament commandment love each other like I have loved you and he tells you why he's telling us didn't he what'd he say verse 11 these things have I spoken to you why that my joy might remain in you and that your joy might be full and how many remember the joy of the Lord is our strength and there's nothing stronger than God who is love and full love gives you full joy gives you full strength gives you full God who is love that gives you joy that makes you strong right can you see it sorry it's all connected and so you you know when you see somebody that's supposed to be so spiritual but they're so depressed it's wrong it's just not right they're believing junk they may they may be very sincere in what they believe but you can be sincerely in the ditch can't you you can be sincerely off the road in what you believe did you know that there are millions of people that are convinced of Lies believing lies on the planet tonight did you know that they're billions of people who are Confed living their life based on total lies living and die based on lies or but aren't you glad we got some truth do you believe Jesus said my word thy word rather is truth and the truth will do what what will the truth do for you it will make you free do you think when you got free it didn't make you happy yeah you're going to see that joy you're going to see that joy so loving each other and even making a sacrifice here and there he's not going to depress you he's not going to take the enjoyment out of your life it's going to do the opposite it's going to fill you with joy the most joyful life is the unselfish life see everything else does you know get what you want and that'll make you happy even if you have to run over a few people home the way the collateral damage will be worth getting what you want it's alive it's possible to get everything you ever thought you wanted and a few weeks later be suicidal when you realize it didn't make you happy it did not fulfill you it did not satisfy you none but the most satisfying life the most joyful life that it that there is is the real Christian life that's the real giving life the real love living this is my commandment that you love one another as I have loved you greater love has no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends your my friends if you do whatever I command you go with me to first John the 3rd chapter first John 3 y'all believing with me you said right we've got places to get to at this rate it would be a while but you're believing with me right first John 3 and 14 I'm gonna read this from the complete Jewish Bible the cjb if we got that one back there can you put that up if not I'll read it from what I've got here first John 3:14 do we have it or not no cjb complete Jewish yeah there we go he said thank you for when we for our part know that we have passed from death to life how do you know it because we love that this version says we keep loving the brothers how do you know that you really are saved of all the things that people talk about this is it I remember when I got born again and anybody that has been born again knows it too right it's not this vague thing it happened you know it I was in junior high and my dad we hadn't been going to church and my little brother had a head-on accident he's riding him a little motorcycle and hit a one-ton pickup truck head-on his head hit the bumper no helmet and they didn't think he would make it on the ride to the hospital and anyway they got him to a another hospital a bigger hospital a bigger city and there were some people that had some gunshot wounds and stuff they treated them first because they didn't think he could make it but he just kept living and there was a woman of God that the Lord had put in our lives we my family was not going to church at that time now my parents both grew up in church but they weren't serving God and so we weren't going my grandma now loved us to church as little kids but as a family weren't going to church and so some of that was sporadic anyway this woman encouraged us to pray and believe God and that God would heal our my little brother in that time of I mean oh it looked impossible so we did best we knew how and they did with us and he I mean his we found out later his neck was broken his his goal was was who all knows whatever said I mean all his teeth were knocked out his jaw was broken he hit a truck head-on with this with his head you know and they didn't even know his neck was broken they found that out later after they moved him and her stuff you know anyway he was unconscious just a lifeless lookin lump laying on the table when I saw of course I'm just a kid myself well the preteen I say and the next day I'm pushing him down the hall of the hospital in a wheelchair he's laughing the next day now I don't to tell you what a miracle that is what a miracle that is I didn't tell you the whole story because we're already another time but when we got home my grandmother whose dear woman of God she called us up to her house which is unusual she's praying woman heard from God had visions and things that people didn't understand but even people that mocked her quit laughing when they came to pass but she called us we all came in and she tears her on her cheeks I remember it distinctly Lina Perl surname Lina Perl more she's in heaven now sister Lina pearl they all called her and she said God has spared our baby Spirit of God was in that room I'm telling you I remember my dad was there my mom and he's looking down at the floor she said I told the Lord that if he would spare our baby that you would you all would serve Him she said did I lie my dad's looking down and of course you know my dad I thought he hung the moon you know still do everything he did I did you know us boys dead he looked if he said yes ma'am you're right we'll be in church tomorrow morning it was a Saturday and we were in a great little Baptist Church there and and when the when the minister gave the altar call my dad got up and walked down the aisle and I figured if he needs to go probably duty so I got up and I followed him down and was born again in the altar as a boy junior high boy and the the next day in school is for how God in talking about this I knew something was different I looked around the room and kids that I didn't like before for some reason I thought they're okay I liked you and teachers I didn't care for I liked them too I just and I didn't realize it but the love of God was in my heart and I'm as I'm looking I'm just a kid but I'm looking around and I'm seeing people differently and I'm perceiving them differently and thinking about them differently something that's a how do we know we've passed from death unto life this love this love let you know that you're no longer dead spiritually you're alive somebody say I have that love in me keep read let's keep reading the person who fails to keep on loving is still under the power of death keep reading this verse verse 15 everyone who hates his brothers a murderer and you know that no murderer has eternal life in him now you might get in the flesh get mad get upset with somebody even say you hate somebody but if you're really born again if you check your heart that's not your heart even when you're saying you hate him your hearts bothering you it's scratching you about it keep reading verse 17 if someone has worldly possessions this world's goods and he sees his brother in need yet closes his heart against him how can he be loving God keep going children let us not love with words and talk but with actions and in reality in truth not just love and talk what is the greatest expression love John 3:16 put it upon the screen first John 3:16 is the greatest expression of love God so loved the world that what that He gave His only begotten Son the greatest expression of love is giving the greatest expression of love is not saying I'm not saying that's not important it is but it's not the greatest expression of love the greatest expression of love is giving giving do you believe that or not how could you doubt it with this verse right here God so loved the world that he did what and he gave the most precious thing didn't he his only begotten Son and he gave what we so desperately needed right Redemption Jesus taking our place paying the price obtaining for us eternal redemption with his blood getting for us holiness we could not attain to righteousness we could not earn and deserve do you believe it Saints getting us wisdom getting us all those things he gave it to us why did he give it to us why because he loved and still does love us and loves the whole world even though the whole world has not accepted him he loved and gave this for the whole world so for God so loved the world that word so means in this manner he loved the world in this way in this manner remember what the new commandment is we are to love each other in a certain manner how as he has loved us well he said the father loved him that way and he loved us that way and we're to love each other in what way he so loved that he gave now this takes mine renewal and it's one of the reasons why the devil has fought giving so hard and I know a lot of people have done a lot of dumb stuff and wrong stuff and don't get concerned I'm not getting ready to have a big offering mm-hmm but you can see even to have to say that you can see why the devil has endeavored worked so hard and been very successful in a lot of cases in attaching a stigma to anything associated with giving but it is the greatest expression of the greatest thing in existence God so loved that he gay said out loud God so loved that he gave if we love each other that way what will we do we will so love that we give that's what the verse just got through saying back up and we'll put excuse-me first John back up there again first John 3 and 17 well excuse me 16 16 let's see let's go back to the King James on this one 3:16 first John hereby perceive we the love of God because he laid down his life for us God the Father gave us Jesus Jesus gave us his life his blood right his spirit for our spirit his soul for our soul his body for our body didn't he do it we should never question his love it is the ultimate insult to look at what Jesus gave for us and was willing how far he was willing to go for us no one has ever gone further for anybody then he went for us do you believe it says you think you may question some things but do not question his love for you do not that's been proven before heaven earth and hell for eternity his blood his blood is on the mercy seat tonight speaking on your behalf his love is not in question his love has been proven it's for us to prove our love right and in the master doesn't mean things in heaven but his kids do and we can love him by loving him is that right and then he's saying as much as you've done it unto the least of these my brother he takes it personally whether you hurt him whether you help them he takes it personally and let me keep reading this whoso has this world's good and sees his brother have need and shuts up his bowels of compassion from him how'd Wells the love of God in him my little children let us not love in a word neither in tongue but in deed and in truth now saying to love not just in talk but love in what you do in doing and in truth sincerity reality is connected to having this world's goods did you see that back up or 17 somebody didn't see it how does this start off with whoever has this world's goods so what if you don't have any of this world's goods then your expression of love is limited how did songs get written that are heralded by the church that say I don't want any of this world's goods and people cherish that more than they do this I had lady one time coming after I'd spoken wish she was all right I could see it in her face before she got to me she said none that such a such wasn't right and this wasn't right and she's she's quoting a verse that I quoted and so what she said you said I said no no no no no mm-hmm wasn't me I quoted the verse book and Verte chapter and verse say it she said well yeah but it's just like the song says the Sun I it surprised me I said what she says just like the song says she's rejecting the scriptures and and holding up to me a song something out of a hymnal I don't know if you realize this or not but there are some hymnals that I really enjoy and think a lot of and and the chorus I think is from heaven but verse three is just out of somebody's goofed up ideas are you listed and we need to know enough of the word and the Holy Spirit will enough to discern men are imperfect vessels they can yield of the Holy Spirit in the morning and yield the confusion in the afternoon did you know it thank God we have the Holy Spirit we have the Holy Word we can measure everything by this he that has this world's good go with me to first Corinthians please can you take a little more mm-hmm second Corinthians how about that second Corinthians the eighth chapter second corinthians the eighth chapter and about verse thirteen or so he said I mean not that other men be eased and you burdened but by an equality that now at this time your abundance everybody say your abundance whose abundance your abundance how many know you'd have to have some abundance to be talking about your abundance abundance ah that your abundance may be a supply for there won't and that their abundance also may be a supply for your won't that there may be an equality he Breeden as it is written he that gathered much had nothing over he that had gathered little had no lack so he goes on to talk about this chapter this whole chapter is is rich on this subject at eight and nine are so there's talk about material things it's talking money it's talking about giving it's talking about offerings and it is rich rich rich but the enemy fights this so hard because and what I haven't seen until recently is he's fighting our greatest witness which is our love which finds its greatest expression in giving can you see this thing's this is about the law of command and the love command is our greatest witness by this shall all men know that you're my disciples by what by us loving each other in the same way that he has loved us how has he loved us he loved us so much that he gave us Jesus can you say Amen say I know what back during the celebration Sunday there in Branson we have a day that we come together and all the folks believe God over the year and bring things to give and if you hadn't been there I encourage you to come it's it's an outstanding day and we'll have some things here too in Sarasota the Lord will show us how how to express this but the Lord has done this that in Branson it's not something that we we tried to do per se it's something it worked into and it became that and we put up tents and people the the people fill it our people fill it with clothes a lot of them new shoes every size I mean big tents and some tents have furniture in them whole bedroom suits new TVs new washer and dryer sets new refrigerators new freezers tents full of stuff and the people show up and receive it and take it home and we and we feed the people thousands of them and we've got games and stuff for the kids and rides for the kids and the kids just have a great time I mean last time I was the last when we had Phyllis now walking across the ground and I felt this thing up against my leg and I look and this little guy on a new bicycle he discussion but the key brother keys the money bicycle brand-spanking-new had the little streamers on it he was a happy guy in different little ones come and grab your leg and and big was - I saw families walking across a parking lot with with their arms like this with clothes and we found out that people get clothes for their kids for the whole year at no charge and as I was standing toward the end of the day looking out over this and I mean thousands of people had come through and I don't know how much money's worth the stuff all kind of stuff and the Lord spoke to my heart he said when people fight so called prosperity message this is what they're fighting this is what they're fighting you know why people don't do why churches don't do that kind of thing it costs money and a lot of it come on are y'all with me and and you it's not just the church why don't people bring new washers and dryers and refrigerators and a thousand dollars worth of new clothes why cuz they don't have it are their priorities are somewhere else come on are you listening to me Saints and then these same people will fight somebody like me this says God wants you to be blessed and have a lot more than just what you need if you don't have a lot more than what you need how are you gonna do things like this you've got to have this world's goods hmm don't you you can't give what you don't have and you can't give substantially unless you've got substantially above and beyond what you need to get by and exist and survive and have what you need everything we're believing for this ministry is beyond Phyllis's in my needs isn't it we didn't need this place down here for us we didn't need that property in Branson for four she and I and all the builds that go with it now all the maintenance and all that kind of stuff where to send you the utility bills sometimes let you check them out we didn't need it for us everything we're believing for is way out beyond us and now it's millions of dollars and tens of millions out beyond our needs but the more you got the more you can help other people the more you can you can have places you can have provision and it's how the Lord got us to the place where we could believe we'll just give this word to people we'll just send these materials to people how many stay you got to have a lot more than what you need to be able to do that and when people fuss with us and fight and oil I don't believe in all that prosperity stuff that's what they're fighting that's what they're fighting because if you don't believe it's the will of God for you to have more than your necessities and more than your little personal bills paid you'll never get into this and you'll never get into this joy that comes from being able to be a vessel in a conduit to bless others Oh friend there's something very very big that God is working in us do you believe it or not it's tied to faith it's tied to prosperity it's tied to sowing and reaping it's tied to the law of command it's tied to the Great Commission to go into all the world and preach the gospel it's big I said it's big and in order for us to be the part we're supposed to be we've got to get our eyes above our little stuff well all I need is just enough for me and mine and that's fine me and mine that's fine that's not having faith let's not have envision and it's not the law of command God so loved the world that He gave we so love each other that we give and we love the world so we give we give and if we love big we give big I said we give big somebody it's like you've been give big give big give big go to the ninth chapter here in second Corinthians nine and eight Lord is starting something in us here tonight that's been going on I don't know if this is the end of this series or the beginning of another but something's happening here and I'd have to talk in tongues to try to tell it to you right now and believe for the interpretation but you're going to believe with me right in the days to come for the utterance for the focus I can see what the Lord's been working in us for the past decade some things are coming to fruition now and it all has to do with this and I am so excited can you tell it or not that we are going to have ability I mean big ability to love people with right and not just love in Word and in talk but in action with stuff with money with equipment with buildings with vehicles come out of you Lisbon Saints [Applause] and this is not just you know a church thing you are the church we are the church this is something God does I mean the people we talked about the celebration Sunday we have seen in the first year - with that celebration Sunday the stuff was on this level a lot of it was clean and and used and it was where we were at but man as the years go by the tags are still on it and it's hot dollar and they'd just brought it from the store and put it in the tent it's hard ollar it's new it's top of the line stuff come on are you listening to me sir what does that mean that means the people's faith have grown their life is on a different level and people can mock us all they like then call us grab it grab it name it frame it huh they can mark when we talk about our offerings and sewing but they won't be able to have ability either when it comes time to do things and then they'll they'll try to imagine well it was just not God's will for me to have that and leave the impression it's God's will for some people to be rich and it's God's will for some people to be broke that's a lie I said it's a lie it's a lie anybody that'll believe God I'm telling you you can be in the lowest ditch in the worst slum in the world do you believe it Saints and look up from that place and call on God and follow him and he can make you a conduit he can make you a storehouse to flow blessings through to the world do you believe it glory to God let me finish on our examples we were two little ignorant folks in a little dumpy wore-out trailer with nothing piece of junk car and now God is using us to believe God to reach Nations and the difference is can he get faith in can he get you to believe this or will you fight it are we you say well that's for somebody else that's not for me no telling how many people the Lord has tried to use and they wouldn't cooperate they wouldn't listen to it she winds up he winds up using the same people over and over again a lot of times because others are not not listening not participating but would you believe that God could use you even you said out loud God can use me he can use anybody and he can use me in second Corinthians nine and eight notice this and we're getting into it now can you tell it or not can you sense it second corinthians 9:8 it says God is able if somebody believes that say you man God is able to make all grace abound towards you now this is a hallelujah statement yeah to what end so that you always having all sufficiency in all things does this sound like being broke and can't pay your bills may abound to every good work glory to God having everything you need and more than enough of it and enable able to give to every good work express the love of God in tangible material ways this word abound is an exciting word you want to hear about it there are several words that come from this route what is it about seven or so in the New Testament forms of this but this is what they all mean it comes back to the root it means surplus egde sir would you say surplus surpluses that sounds good to them surplus egde and super abundance I'm quoting dr. strong and dr. vine they say this is accurate that it literally means surplus äj-- / super abundance somebody say super but what is abundance abundance is more than enough what super abundance will that be way more than more than enough is that the will of God a lot of folks don't believe it they don't believe it we're in the minority of church-going folks that believe this but jesus said john 10:10 the thief comes not but for to steal and to kill and destroy Jesus said I am come why'd you come Jesus I am come that you might have life and that you might have it more abundantly that is this word super abundance that you might have it soup what is the amplified say to the full until it overflows because this it means me means more than abundance it means super super abundance y'all believe in abundance now we believe more than that well we're you just thought we're extreme we're beyond that we we believe in super abundance super abundance folks oh well that's just being it's just being materialistic no what is your motive for why what to what end we got a gospel to preach to the world hmm it costs money we want to help people spiritually and naturally right we want to express to people that they're valuable giving somebody something expensive is a very loud way of saying this is pricey but you're more pricey I value this but I value more isn't it it is a loud unquestionable way of saying I love you you're valuable to super abound another one of these word definitions to super abound in quantity and quality to be in excess super abundant super abundant super abundant somebody say thank you lord he said the Lord is able to make all grace abound toward you that you always having all sufficiency in all things may abound to every good work this to me is the definition of biblical prosperity what's the will of God for your life always having all sufficiency in all things and able to abound to every good work is that God's will for you is it it's not a dollar amount people need different things to do different jobs and outreaches don't compare yourself with anybody but lack and not having enough and wanting to do and not being able none of this is the will of God none of it is the plan of God do you believe that since religion has taught people to accept it so we don't understand why but God's teaching us something well what's he teaching you maybe if you'd hurry up and learn it you could get out of this mess no it's just it's just being religious it's not in line with other scriptures it's not right if it's stealing from you if it's destroying something in your life for your loved ones life it's the devil jesus said so if it's killing something it's the devil did you know death itself is our enemy did you know that people talk about you know God took them in sweet death well maybe he received them but death ain't sweet death is destruction and decay and it is the last enemy that will be put under foot one of these days there's going to be no more dying no more death no more decay or somebody say thank you Lord God is able to make all grace abound go to Ephesians 2 Ephesians 2 please can you take a little bit more God is able to make all grace abound all grace be super abundant to you and the result of that grace being super abundant to you is you always having everything you need in every area and plenty to give to every good work what is Grace well this grace enables you to do something including material in Ephesians you see this word again Ephesians 2:4 but God who is rich in mercy God's rich are you anti rich God's rich he's rich in mercy he's rich in every good thing for his great love wherewith he loved us keep reading even when we were dead in sins has quickened us together with Christ by grace you are saved keep going and has raised us up together and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus somebody say thank you Lord that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of His grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus keep going for by grace he keeps out almost every verse grace by grace grace you're saved through faith that not of yourselves it is the gift of God don't be limited to a small definition of grace what is grace grace is the gift of God grace is all that God gave that's what grace is everything that God has given means you didn't earn it it was given to you His grace and everything that God gives to us on a regular basis as a result of what he's already given that's what grace is grace is all that God gave grace gift same all that he gave what did he give us a little bit huh was he stingy with what he gave us back up what are we going to say throughout the ages to come keep for his great love wherewith he loved us in the ages to come he's going to show us the exceeding riches of His grace and you know what is good what it has been saying and what it will be saying throughout eternity what will it be saying as he gives this to us and the more he gives this to what is it saying what does it say I love you you're the apple of my eye right I've been getting this ready for you for eons I've been preparing this for you from before the foundation of the world I had this ready for you huh it's it's expressed and how big is his love it's bigger than the universe and he is expressing this to us not just today and tomorrow but throughout the endless ages the exceeding riches of his of everything he gave to us now if God loved us like that first John says we ought to love each other right and how are we going to love each other with our ability and that's not all about money and things but that is part of it too in that you use your faith to get to a place where you can do things for people y'all with me or not friends I don't care if you got nothing faith works by love doesn't it you can get it in your heart that you don't want anybody to have to take care of you you love them and you don't want to be a drain on their resources you don't want to be a SAP on them at all and so you're gonna believe God so that you don't need that and then you're not gonna stop there how does anybody in here with me tonight you're not gonna stop there you're gonna keep believing God until your situation gets stronger and better and stronger and better and you not only have resources to take care of you but you can start doing things for other people hmm how's this lands our buildings our vehicles as we've been saying that month after month and year after year if you've been around you've heard me it's hard for me to say it without stopping and saying now this is not just about you having a bunch of stuff this is Kingdom related this is Kingdom business right and just this last week or so he began to show me why I keep wanting to say that it is Kingdom related it is Kingdom connection why does Branson have a church in a fine place there tonight and all that equipment because God gave more Life Ministries partners and us ability beyond themselves to sew into that and God used them to make that happen why is there a Sarasota Church here tonight because the Branson people loved you and more Life Ministries people loved you even though they didn't know you by name a person our face they knew you were here and somehow loved you come on are you listening sites and said we want you to have this to be able to do this and why just so you can come and set up in here and get fat on the word na na so we can rise up in a place of ability that in time to come things will come up and the Lord will put his finger on us and say take care of that you do that you'll be a part of that you underwrite that you do have for that you you make provision for that already there's numerous things like this happening in the ministry we've been in places some things happen this week with the Lord Devils to send them a big seed in their building program it'll encourage them it'll help them that happened recently there was a thing that was kind of you know had kind of come to a stop and the Lord it was so big seed in that thing and it'll kick started again and it'll encourage them and it has and it didn't is can you say glory to God but that's not for an institution or organization it's for the believer you me as individuals when we are coming out far beyond our basic necessities and then when you put us together and our excess is combined we begin to be in a inability of strength and it's not just having some stuff in some money it's having faith and vision and love and ability and you couple that with the Holy Ghost and the plan of God and you see life-changing things happen do you believe it sir it's too easy to just sit back and go well me and mine that's fine now that's been spiritually lazy it's not having vision it's not having faith you're called two more you're you're capable of much more do you believe it says and do you think that there is no greater joy than somebody in a situation believe in God with all their heart and coming up against problems and lack and need and God use you oh come on now you are you and me to be there at the right time with the ability to make that pressure go away and cause that vision to come to pass come on who you're listening Saints people who don't believe in prosperity I'll never be a part of this they won't have any vision beyond themselves but the Lord has been working something in us and now it's coming it's a fruit coming out of it it's gonna we're about to shift into another gear do you believe it there's been talk about another level another level that's not just in one or two areas that's spiritually that's Kingdom business can you say glory to God stand on your feet let's praise Him some tonight say Oh lift up your hands I'll praise them and thank him say Lord I I'm so thankful to be a part I'm so thankful to be a part thanks be to God thanks be to God thanks be to God thanks be to God I'll lift up your hands lift up your voice to Saints sit out loud thanks be to God oh thanks be to God thank you for your greatness thank you for your ability thank you Lord for making a strong for yourself strong for your kingdom strong for oh thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you
