Sermon Note
Pastor Prince
God loves all of us dearly. Even when we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Ephesians 5:1
Walk in Love
Therefore be imitators of God as dear children.
Children who are loved will imitate their parents
Psalms 119:130
The entrance of Your words gives light;
It gives understanding to the simple.
Isaiah 59:19 – 60:3
So shall they fear
The name of the LORD from the west,
And His glory from the rising of the sun;
When the enemy comes in like a flood,
The Spirit of the LORD will lift up a standard against him.
“The Redeemer will come to Zion,
And to those who turn from transgression in Jacob,”
Says the LORD.
“As for Me,” says the LORD, “this is My covenant with them: My Spirit who is upon you, and My words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart from your mouth, nor from the mouth of your descendants, nor from the mouth of your descendants’ descendants,” says the LORD, “from this time and forevermore.”
The Gentiles Bless Zion
Arise, shine;
For your light has come!
And the glory of the LORD is risen upon you.
For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth,
And deep darkness the people;
But the LORD will arise over you,
And His glory will be seen upon you.
The Gentiles shall come to your light,
And kings to the brightness of your rising.
In the last days the enemies is doing things like a flood
His Word will not depart from my mouth first
We are uncovering the wealth now
Even of healing. Which is blood bought right by the blood of Jesus
Wealth of prosperity
It is time for church to prosper. Not been greedy.
2 Corinthians 8:9
For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.
1 Corinthians 14:1
Prophecy and Tongues
Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy.
Follow after ℓσνє
Pastor was on the way going back and he was in a hurry to go back. When he was passing by he saw an elderly man trying to cross the road in the middle divider.
Pastor felt the ℓσνє rising on him and he knew he had to follow the ℓσνє. He stopped at the side of the road and reversed slowly to get to the elderly man. He called out to him and went over to get him. He brought him to his car. The elderly man said he was hungry and he wanted to find food. He did not want to go home because nothing at home and his son not at home. He said he was looking for a market where his friend is there. But he could not tell where is the place.
Pastor prayed in the spirit, followed after ℓσνє and desire spiritual gift.
From his spirit it popped out ABC Market. He asked the elderly man but he could not tell him. So he drove him there and when he reached there with the elderly man, a store owner shouted the elderly man’s name out. Pastor knew he was at the right place.
This elderly man have a pitiful story. His son neglect him and he often hungry and the store owner would feed him.
Follow after ℓσνє. God just ℓσνє people. If you are a teacher, a surgeon, follow after ℓσνє and desire spiritual gift. The holy spirit will tell you. The gift of holy spirit is for people to profit.
Keep on praying in the spirit.
This is a special prayer unique to this new covenant of grace.
It is a prayer language not in Old Testament
It is a unique prayer, prayer 2.0 for new covenant people
In the Old Testament you have holy spirit on them and will leave them. But in the New Testament, the holy spirit is with us and in us forever. We are new covenant people. The more you pray in the spirit you are led by the spirit. If you are led by the spirit you are not under the law.
Galatians 3:10
The Law Brings a Curse
For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse; for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law, to do them.”
We are free from the law to follow the Spirit
Follow the spirit and you will more than fulfil the written law.
It is number 7 of the Holy Spirit
Positive expectation of the good of the future
You have breastplate of righteousness and it protects your heart
You have gospel of peace shoe so that wherever you go you possess the land
Shield of faith. So it will quench all the fiery darts
7th one is praying in the spirit
The sword of the spirit
Ephesians 6:17-18
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints—
The saying of God – Rhémà
Praying in the spirit – pray in an unknown language
1 Corinthians 14:15
What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with the understanding. I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the understanding.
Arise and shine
For your light has come!
It is referring to the end times we are living in
People will search us out
Souls are touched and Jesus glorified
In the year of Time and Space
People are receiving right where they are
It is the Lord who transcend time and space. We are not limited by time and space
Colossians 2:5
For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ.
Walk in faith even more this time
Isaiah 41:15-16
Behold, I will make thee a new sharp threshing instrument having teeth:
thou shalt thresh the mountains, and beat them small,
and shalt make the hills as chaff.
Thou shalt fan them, and the wind shall carry them away,
and the whirlwind shall scatter them:
and thou shalt rejoice in the LORD,
and shalt glory in the Holy One of Israel.
Double edges (double mouth)
Mountains are huge problem, it can be sickness, depression. Whatever it is. A problem that looks large. Have faith of God. Speak to it. Be thou removed and be thrown into the sea. Don’t doubt in your heart.
What happens when you speak and it seems that the mountain is not moving.
You will thresh the mountains and pulverise them
Ox going around. Pray in tongues. Having double mouth.
As we pray in the spirit, we go around the wall of Jericho
We are making progress like the spiral staircase
Pray over the mountains. The things that are impossible with men and possible with God
Tell the Lord. The Lord knows. The holy spirit in us know how to pray perfect prayer.
1 Corinthians 14:4
He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.
Edify himself is a total self. Spirit soul and body
Edify himself – the entire self
God is not our problem
Daniel when he prayed and it took 21 days
The first day he prayed and the 1st day the prayer is heard
God starts from the inside. He strengthen our inside first before the benefit happen outside
It is not a feeling. It is a knowing.
It can be one day, few hours or days
It touches our souls. We see things we never saw before
There is clarity
We come to a place of rest
When people their healing they forgot where they started. They have prayed in tongues a few days ago. It is the prayer manifesting. The prayer takes some time to manifest.
Believe God and pray.
Under grace. The more you are under grace when you are praying in the spirit
The more you are praying in the spirit the more you are threshing the mountains. From mountain becomes hill and become like chaff.
You will winnow them
After the threshing comes the winnow
The grain has been separated from the chaff but still on the ground.
Flow with the wind
The wind will blow the chaff away
Psalms 1:3-4
He shall be like a tree
Planted by the rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper.
The ungodly are not so,
But are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
The chaff is light. The more they do that, the more the ground is filled with grains.
Bit by bit, you are going in a circuit.
Going up the spiral staircase. You do not know what the future is, one step at a time.
Psalms 149:6
Let the high praises of God be in their mouth,
And a two-edged sword in their hand,
Cloven tongues means divide in 2 tongues
Acts 2:3-4
Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
A sword with double edge
Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Two-edged sword
Distomos – divide
Stomos – means mouth
Dis-stomos
The word of God is two mouth sword!
Discernment
It divides the soul and spirit
Pray in the spirit you become sensitive of what is of you and what is of God
When you pray in spirit it touches the areas of your joints
The bone marrows are extremely important for our immune system
God can give us the best of immune system
It is rhema by praying in the spirit
When the son of the hated wife (first wife) the son must be the one with double portion
Deuteronomy 21:17
But he shall acknowledge the son of the unloved wife as the firstborn by giving him a double portion of all that he has, for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the firstborn is his.
The word double portion is double mouth
2 Kings 2:9-10
And so it was, when they had crossed over, that Elijah said to Elisha, “Ask! What may I do for you, before I am taken away from you?”
Elisha said, “Please let a double portion of your spirit be upon me.”
So he said, “You have asked a hard thing. Nevertheless, if you see me when I am taken from you, it shall be so for you; but if not, it shall not be so.”
Double portion of all that the first born receive. Double portion for us is double mouth
God esteem praying in tongues as double portion for first born
God is teaching us the sound of praying in the spirit will cause all that God has for us is opened
If you see Jesus ascend, the Holy Spirit comes on you
We receive the holy spirit because we see Jesus glorified
2 Kings 2:11-12
Then it happened, as they continued on and talked, that suddenly a chariot of fire appeared with horses of fire, and separated the two of them; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
And Elisha saw it, and he cried out, “My father, my father, the chariot of Israel and its horsemen!” So he saw him no more. And he took hold of his own clothes and tore them into two pieces.
You can only cry myFather my father when the spirit is in you
The gift of the spirit manifest as the spirit wills.
Praying in tongues is manifest as we will.
We light up all the 9 gifts of the spirit.
This is our inheritance
The Lord’s spirit on us. His word in our mouth will not depart from our mouth
What was the law under the law is now spirit under the new
The first Pentecost – fully come in the new. Got gave the spirit. Mount Zion. The mountain of grace. 3000 people were saved.
We interpret everything with spirit of grace
Joshua 1:8
This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate (hagah- mutter) in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.
The word of the spirit shall not depart from our mouth
We don’t try to keep the law. Holiness will be fulfilled in us. When we pray in the spirit, it will be fulfilled
Psalms 1:2-4
But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
And in His law he meditates day and night.
He shall be like a tree
Planted by the rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper.
The ungodly are not so,
But are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
In the spirit we pray
We pray in the spirit day and night
His leaf will not wither. We will remain young.
Whatever we do shall prosper!
We can draw the principle of meditation. It is still there.
The law – exchange with the Spirit
What was the law in the old is now the spirit
The spirit to be followed. A divine Person to be followed
In all we do, glorify Jesus
This pandemic will end and glorify Jesus
Pray with the spirit first and pray with understanding after
We can always be be been filled with the holy spirit. We can always have more. Keep on praying in the spirit. You are wielding the sword. By coming to us they are coming to the glory of Jesus. We have the first born of inheritance.
Evil spirit takes over.
God don’t. God corporate with us.
It is like a dance. He leads and we follow
Demonstrate your faith by speaking.
Those are evaluated discourse.
The leaf will not wither. Whatever we do will prosper.
Wait on the Lord and He will strengthen your heart. It is literal heart.
