Pastor Jeremy shares Sunday in Glendive.

Jerry Sevelle - 2022 will be the year of the open hand

of God. “In the midst of more and more chaos and

disorder, God will open His hand and freely give to

those who refuse to be shaken by it.”

● Notice this is in the midst of chaos and disorder.

That means there are troubles and hardships that

will arise in 2022. This will cause the world to be

unstable, but God has different plans for you!

While others are saying, “Worst of times, worst of

times”, if you stay in faith, you’ll be saying, “Best of

times, best of times.”

1 Sam 6 The Philistines send the Ark of the Covenant

back on a new cart being pulled by two milk cows.

● God had given the Israelites instructions on how to

handle the Ark...call it “Ark of the Covenant Etticut”

● The world doesn’t follow God’s ways...they are lost,

ignorant, and don’t have the ability to understand

the things of God.

● Many people died after the Ark was returned

because they didn’t follow the protocol God had

laid out for handling it.

● We see something the world is doing and

something that looks like “success” and we copy,

duplicate, or imitate the world’s way and then get

upset because the Hand of the Lord is not upon

that strategy.

● 1 Chron 13 & 15 Uzzah dies pulling the Ark on a

new cart. David then repents and in chapter 15

tells the levites to follow God’s “gameplan” on

transporting the Ark.

Mark 16 Jesus says these signs will follow you: In My

Name you will: cast out demons, speak on tongues,

have supernatural protection, and supernatural power

1 Peter 5 says your adversary walks about seeking

whom he may devour...resist him steadfast in the faith.

James 4:7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and

he will flee from you.

Eph 6 Paul describes how we are to function during the

“evil day”

● 2 Cor. 10:3-6 Although we walk according to the

flesh we don’t fight that way.

● 1 Time 6:12 fight the good fight of faith, lay hold of

eternal life

Buffalo Bills: Perfect Playoff Game

● No punts, no turnovers, no field goals

● They gained yards on 49 of 51 plays (kneeled twice

at the end of the game)

● Afterward the media interviewed the players...they

all said “we came to play”...they say “coaching staff

had a good game plan, we just came out and

executed”

If we are going to have success during this chaotic

season, we are going to have to have the testimony “we

came to play.” We are going to have to recognize God’s

game plan in this thing and go out and be doers of the

Word!!

● We suited up, took what we knew about the

Word of God, applied it to our lives, were

doers of the Word and not hearers only.

● We resisted the devil in Jesus Name. We

didn’t allow him to have his way in our life,

our family, our church, our city, state, or

nation.

● We preached the gospel to all creatures,

making disciples from every nation, baptising

them in the Name of the Father, Son, and

Holy Spirit
