Brother Gary Wednesday Evening 6/4/14

1Ti 2:1  I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

There is a way to have direction as to how to work with a soul; that is to supplicate.  The enemy has done great things to keep souls from getting saved, but we are laying a hold on one that is greater.

1Ti 2:2  For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

One thing I know, God is in control.  As fast as things move, it could happen that before next year we may not be able to have vacation bible school.  We need to work and pray.

1Ti 2:3  For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

1Ti 2:4  Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

1Ti 2:5  For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

1Ti 2:6  Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

1Ti 2:7  Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.

1Ti 2:8  I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.

Eph 5:17  Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.

Eph 5:18  And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

Eph 5:19  Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

Eph 5:20  Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Eph 5:21  Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.

We are to be easily entreated.  You have learned what God requires for us to prosper here.  As we submit one to another, we learn, teach, edify, and build.

Heb 13:20  Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,

Heb 13:21  Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

In your list of things to do tomorrow: let God have His portion.  Say, “I need the list because I want to get things done, but I want to be subject to the will of God.”

Is God not the same today?  Jacob’s ladder went clear up into heaven.  Be careful where you let your ladder stop.  Let it come clear from heaven.

Psa 106:21  They forgat God their saviour, which had done great things in Egypt;

This is a very stirring scripture.  Don’t forget the good things that God has done.  Something that has stirred me in my spiritual life speaking of the Children of Israel:  they wanted quail, and certain things...  They lusted exceedingly after the desires of the flesh.  God gave them that desire but sent leanness to their soul. 

We have every reason to be vigilant, even to be militant, “I want the will of God and to not forget what God has already done.”

Psa 126:1  A Song of degrees. When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.

Psa 126:2  Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them.

Psa 126:3  The LORD hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.

Psa 126:4  Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south.

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.
