 CD 1521 Detours to my Destination (Excuses or Excellence)

Text Acts
Closing Illustration:
The year was 1920. The scene was the examining board for selecting missionaries. Standing before the board was a young man named Oswald Smith. One dream dominated his heart. He wanted to be a missionary. Over and over again, he prayed, "Lord, I want to go as a missionary for you. Open a door of service for me." Now, at last, his prayer would be answered. When the examination was over, the board turned Oswald Smith down. He did not meet their qualifications. He failed the test. Oswald Smith had set his direction, but now life gave him a detour. What would he do? As Oswald Smith prayed, God planted another idea in his heart. If he could not go as a missionary, he would build a church which could send out missionaries. And that is what he did. Oswald Smith pastored The People's Church in Toronto, Canada, which sent out more missionaries than any other church at that time. Oswald Smith brought God into the situation, and God transformed his detour into a main thoroughfare of service. 

Background info:
Oswald Jeffrey Smith (November 8, 1889 – January 25, 1986) was a Canadian pastor, author, and missions advocate. He founded The Peoples Church in Toronto in 1928.

CD 1513 Your Opinions will Hinder Your Faith
Opinion is a judgment based on past experiences - (a view or judgment formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge).
Faith is a belief that comes from continually hearing the Word of God! God's Word is total truth and is eternal without change!

*Text: *Proverbs 18:2 KJVS
A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
*Proverbs 18:2 AMPC
A [self-confident] fool has no delight in understanding but only in revealing HIS PERSONAL OPINIONS and himself.
*Proverbs 18:2 CSB
A fool does not delight in understanding, but only wants to show off HIS OPINIONS.
*Romans 10:17 KJVS
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
*Romans 10:17 AMPC
So faith comes by hearing [what is told], and what is heard comes by the preaching [of the message that came from the lips] of Christ (the Messiah Himself).
*Romans 10:17 CSB
So faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through the message about Christ.

Paul warned us:
*Galatians 1:10 KJVS
For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
2nd Witness:
*Matthew 6:24 KJVS
No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

Expound on this thought:

Opinionated Disciples
 
*John 6:60-66 KJVS
Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it? [61] When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you? [62] What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before? [63] It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. [64] But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him. [65] And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father. [66] From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.

Opinionated Brethren

*John 7:5 KJVS
For neither did his brethren believe in him.

No faith in Jesus just an opinion! Remember your opinion will stop your faith if you let it dominate you!

Opinionated Religious 

*John 7:9-19 KJVS
When he had said these words unto them, he abode still in Galilee. [10] But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret. [11] Then the Jews sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he? [12] And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, Nay; but he deceiveth the people. [13] Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews. [14] Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught. [15] And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned? [16] Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. [17] If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. [18] He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him. [19] Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?

Divided by Opinion

*John 7:40-53 KJVS
Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet. [41] Others said, This is the

CD 1520 Rooting out Rocks on Christmas Day

Why does mankind want religion instead of a relationship? 

People start and build church buildings but leave out the One who's is building the true and everlasting Body of Christ His Church!

The root word of Christmas is of course Christ, without Christ there is no Christmas! Jesus came to purchase us with His Blood, to demonstrate and reveal God’s love for us. Truly, the very purpose of the birth of Jesus is to leave no doubt that God (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) loves this world!
Hold up a planter with a little pine tree in one hand and a pine board in the other and ask the people what's the difference between these two?
One is alive the other is dead for it has no root! Is Jesus your root this Christmas morning 2022?
*Matthew 15:13 KJVS
But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
Close your eyes and agree with me in prayer. Father God in Jesus's name open our spiritual eyes and let us see every rock of the flesh and the world that is squeezing out the ROOT of Jesus. The  rocks of pride and passion, of self and sin and the like I repent of and replace with the ROOT of Jesus now.
 With that being said open your Bibles to:

*Text:*Colossians 2:6-7 KJVS
As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: [7] Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.


 Isaiah 11:1-5 KJVS
And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots: [2] And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord ; [3] And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord : and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears: [4] But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. [5] And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.

Verse 3
Are you worried or worshipping?
Are you blessed or bored?

Verse4
Don't  let the devil turn my opportunities  into obstacles!
You can't  have comfort  without corrections!

*Isaiah 53:1-6 KJVS
Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? [2] For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. [3] He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. [4] Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. [5] But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. [6] All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

Let the Holy Spirit take the rocks out of your life  and the ROOT of Jesus  come in....

*Romans 15:12-13 KJVS
And again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust. [13] Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.

Will you release the power or the problem?

VWC Vision Casting Conference 2023 - Sunday Morning (Sis. Mary Ledford) and Evening (Bro. Greg Proctor) December 18, 2022

We need a fresh "Release of Peace" in the chaotic world like never before and where Jesus the Prince of Peace is there is a "RELEASE"!

*2 Thessalonians 3:16 KJVS
Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord be with you all.

*2 Thessalonians 3:16 AMPC
Now may the Lord of peace Himself grant you His peace (the peace of His kingdom) at all times and in all ways [under all circumstances and conditions, whatever comes]. The Lord [be] with you all.

*2 Thessalonians 3:16 TPT
Now, may the Lord himself, the Lord of peace, pour into you his peace in every circumstance and in every possible way. The Lord's tangible presence be with you all.

While walking and praying on November the 5th inside the church it came to my heart that we need to have a vision casting service this Sunday the 18th of December. I feel like I heard the spirit of the Lord say that 2023 will be the year of release. I am even more excited about the sermon he gave me entitled release the peace.
We can fix up our vision board before this service. Then during the the a.m. and p.m. services depending on what the Lord wants we can tell the people they have two weeks to get pictures of those precious souls who are bound. Then on our first day of the new year we will have a service of release to start the year off in that direction by praying for those people they have placed on the board.

*Luke 4:16-21 KJVS
And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read. [17] And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, [18] The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, [19] To preach the acceptable year of the Lord. [20] And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him. [21] And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.

*Luke 1:37-38,45 KJVS
For with God nothing shall be impossible. [38] And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her. [45] And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.
Our whole world is being turned upside down before us. The lines of right and wrong, light and darkness, truth and lies are being blurred and made crooked. In this new year vision casting service the Holy Spirit is going to prepare us with the Word of God to put us in the place of vision, faith, and make our way prosperous in Him! I encourage you not to look around at the crowd and take comfort but rather take comfort of the Holy Spirit lifting up Jesus in your heart. Remember the devil in the garden as the serpent role was the most subtle beast of the field and as it was in the beginning so shall it be in the end. Be on guard not to make agreements with anyone other than Jesus The living Word.
What are you agreeing with? 
Release the..... Whatever is needed at the moment!
*1 John 4:1,4 KJVS
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. [4] Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
