Brother Gary Wednesday Evening 5/27/15

Isa 55:4  Behold, I have given him for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.

It is wonderful to know who God ordained Jesus to be.  The stamp of God: His Son is alive and real. 

The prophet here said that His Son is a witness.  You may be here tonight and seeking God for an answer.  Jesus Christ Himself witnesses to our heart.

There are times that we seek Him in prayer and we may not receive the answer that we need, but we feel the witness, “God has heard prayer.” 

You may have a family situation that is headed in the wrong way.  You begin to pray and seek God and He witnesses that He is going to work.  “Father, we feel the witness that there is going to be a breakthrough from God.”  We serve a mighty God. 

You may be in a very difficult situation, you may be in a very blessed situation.  One thing you want to remember is when you serve God His Son witnesses “This is the way,” or he witnesses, “This is not what you should do.”  God sometimes witnesses, “This is a fine thought, but it is not according to the Word of God.”

My mom and dad were in the movement and they heard of this Brother Lawson that was going to come and preach the Revelation message.  They walked in and saw this old brother as skinny as a rail.  They looked around and wondered, “Where is everyone?”  He spoke and God witnessed that that was truth.

Jesus is a leader.  It is wonderful to have a leader today.  You look around and other than those that are serving God you will see those that have no direction in their life.  Isn’t it wonderful that God has direction for every season of our life? 

He has direction for us to be able to know how to deal with souls. 

Psa 126:5  They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

Psa 126:6  He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.

God has a way of breaking us and helping us to have that brokenness so that we can help souls.  You say, “I think they need to have a piece of my mind.”  I wouldn’t give it away.  If you go forth weeping bearing the precious seed, the bible says you will come again with rejoicing.

He is a commander.  It is wonderful that Jesus Christ is a governor with the heart of a shepherd.  We love to read books of shepherds and sheep.  How they love and care for the sheep.  They can tell by the sound of a lamb or ewe whether they are ok or need help. 

We have a shepherd.  We have one governing our lives that really cares for us.

1Jn 5:5  Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

1Jn 5:6  This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.

In a world today, May 27, 2015, where you are blasted in the religious world with the idea that you cannot overcome the world.  I opened a book given to me on humility; the thought they tried to push was, “We all have to sin so that we stay humble.”  I thought, “This book has to burn.” 

I am glad that I serve a God that saves from sin.  He that overcomes the world is he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God. 

It is the Holy Spirit that witnesses, because the Spirit is truth.  We have God to witness to us, Jesus to witness to us, and the Holy Spirit to witness to us.  God will witness to the plan if we will follow the plan.

1Jn 5:7  For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

1Jn 5:8  And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.

Isn’t it wonderful that the blood of Christ on my soul agrees with Jesus and the Holy Spirit of God?  No jangling or tangling, we agree.

1Jn 5:9  If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.

Isn’t it wonderful to have the witness, “I am a child of God?”  When I wake in the night it is wonderful to lay there and say, “God I am your child, what is your will?”

1Jn 5:10  He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.

1Jn 5:11  And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

1Jn 5:12  He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

Isn’t it wonderful that “He that hath the son hath life?”  Let Him be your witness, leader, commander, and governor with the heart of a shepherd.
