Matthew 7:12 makes plain the “golden rule'' which is whatever you want one to do for you , you too do for them.  Our fore-parents summed it up like this do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

If you don’t like to be disrespectful, then go out of your way to not disrespect another.  The problem we tend to have is because some may disrespect us because we think we have a viable right to return their disrespect with more disrespect.

Our Scriptures tell us if you see your enemy hungry, go buy that person lunch, or if he’s thirsty, get him a drink. Your generosity will surprise him with goodness. Don’t let evil get the best of you; get the best of evil by doing good.

Disrespect desires conflict and is exalted with more disrespect.  Conflict desires harsh words and is exalted with more conflict.  And anger desires evil and is exalted with more evil.  But if you want to shut down acts of disrespect, conflict, anger and even ridicule, be “peace” in a storm,  and light in darkness, rise above what is trying to bring you low. 

The bible teaches in Romans 12:20 by doing this you will heap burning coals on the head of your adversary.

We have been studying the Kingdom of God and our assignment to colonize earth, bringing the culture of the Kingdom of Heaven to earth.  

And today as we celebrate love, we are about to talk about our relationship with God, for it is our love and understanding of who God is that commits us to His  mission and it’s only in our love for Him that we can bring the Kingdom of Heaven to earth.

Today I want to ask you a question regarding your relationship with the Almighty.  WHATCHA DOING & WHO YOU WITH?

We are living through some very turbulent times, and the bible said these times would come 

Matthew 24:4-14  And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for [a]all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, plagues, pandemics, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.   Scriptures goes on to read 10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. 11 Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. 12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But he who endures to the end shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.......

We Want To Hear From YOU!

As we go through our daily lives seeking to please God, we must be sure not to get in our own way.  

Everything that we do because of the love of God in our hearts, we should not allow to be tainted as what should be secret and sacred morphs into selfishness, and mere means of stroking our egos.

In Matthew 6: 1 it reads: “Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven. And in verse 3 it goes on to tell us But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,  so that your giving may be in secret.

God is not at all pleased when we boast about the good we have done.  If true be told we could never beat God giving so what other that flesh would give us the inkling to boast.

Matthew 6:5 goes on to tell us about our acts of prayer.  Prayer is communicating with God.  It should not be mocked, ridiculed org bought before Him to exalt our flesh.  Corporate prayer is fine, partnering in prayer with another is also acceptable.  But if you read the scriptures you will find that Jesus never prayed with his disciples, not because it is ungodly, but likely to provide emphasis on how sacred and intimate prayer is.

We must alway pray with complete reverence for whom we are praying to God, the Alpha and Omega, the one who is the beginning and the end,  the Creator of all things, the one who knows all, and see all

And last but not least our fasting should not be done, the bible says like hypocrites complaining or boasting of our sacrifice.  The bible is clear when we shift the focus off God to us, He will not honor or bless our sacrifice.

Anything that we sacrifice unto God should be done without, moaning, groaning, complaining, or seeking the attention or approval from others.  The Word of God tells us to do things exalting Him in our hearts, as a secret, intimate love exchange between us and him.  God says what we do to honor him in secret, He will reward us openly for. 

So ssh, keep it a secret

When we think of murder we  think of it as being one of the worst crimes and surely a direct sin against God.  But if you read Matthew chapter five verses 21 thru 26, you will find that murder in the eyes of God is more than the physical act of taking someones’ life.

When we wrongfully judge another or hold malice and anger in our hearts against someone, the bible says it is the same to God as murder and we stand in danger of his judgement the same as one who has physically taking the life of another.

What we fail to realize is that God created us, this world, this universe, with a divine plan in mind.  Everything God created, he created to depend on something else to sustain its existence.

Harmony to God is more than just a collaboration of rhythmic beats, it is woven into the fiber of his master plan as it involves all of his living creations complimenting, accentuating, and elevating each other.

So when we, with our imperfect selves argue and disagree, that does not go against God's rule of harmony, for some time it takes the clanging of drums and a few missed beats to create beautiful music.  What displeases God is when we allow an argument, or a disagreement into linger in the stew of anger, allowing in to build malice.

When we do this the very life God designed and created for us, is disrupted, brought to a screeching halt, equivalent to the very life of his creation ended.

God is so serious about us settling our disagreement and casting all anger and malice from our hearts, that he does not want too even commune with us, nor does he want our gift of worship.  Scriptures say first reconcile, be reconciled to your brother and then come and offer your gift.

Just like when music is out of sync, when the harmony isn’t right it is displeasing to us, same with God when we are out of sync, it’s like bad music playing in his heart and corrupting the atmosphere he designed for peace.

The Kingdom of Heaven is all that you have imagined and more, but each of us have to contribute to the harmony staying on beat.

 As we bask in the ambiance of black history month, I wanted to set the record straight.  Believe or not we have some who have turned from the bible deeming that the bible ordained oppression and was a advocate for slavery. Today’s message is a reboot of a sermon I did almost a year ago, but still a very necessary message, because as we all know Satan will do anything to keep people from truth, for truth is destructive to his Kingdom.

First and foremost the slave system we know and have read about in American history is not the initial slave system that started in biblical times.  The original slave system involved those who volunteered themselves and in some cases their entire families to servanthood, to assure all their needs were provided for.  There were physicians, lawyers, and other professionals we deemed as prestigious today who lived with rich families, or royalty as servants.

Then there was no penitentiary system in biblical times, so if some wronged another or stole from another, the penalty was that they worked off their debt and the applicable penalty.

If you notice in the bible you will never see the term employee or employer, only slave and slave master, slave was also synonymous with servant.  But if you study all the bible put in place regarding the management of the slave system you will see that the Word of God did not condone the oppression that enslaved our ancestors.  The mandate of God actually was opposed to any kind of oppression and was in fact influential in the establishing of the labor laws and even credit and finance regulations in place today that benefit employees and consumers  .

Here are a just few highlights of what the bible says about slavery

1. If serving as a slave to pay off debt, maximum time is 7 years, hence today’s credit dismissal.
2. The mandate of God says that slaves are to be treated like members of the slave masters family.
3. The bible declares slaves were not permitted to held against their will
4. The word of God also says if slaves were to be released for any reason they were to be released with all their possessions and gifts from the flocks, crops and wine of their masters, hence the onset of the unfulfilled 40 acres and a mule.
5. Slave were also allowed religious freed, hence we now have a no discrimination law as part of our labor laws today.
6. God deemed that masters were to be held accountable and punished for the mistreatment of a slave.
7. If a slave ran away, they were not to be captured and returned
8. The bible also speaks against kidnapping and forcing another into slavery

All of these stipulations regarding the slavery system according to the mandate of God.  But today with the full bible accessible to us, we as a people  still hold  true to the slave bible the oppressors and violators of the Word of God issued our ancestors.

God is still God, always was and always will be loving, care, compassionate and full of grace and mercy, but unfortunately who God is has never and will never keep those who are full of greed, prejudice, hatred, elitism, selfishness, a love of money, and power from disobeying the Word of God.

You all have heard me say this over and over, you would never settle for a relationship with someone where all the communication with that person comes through another, so why do we do that with God.  Get to know Him for yourself.  If we don’t stand committed to establishing a personal relationship with God, we end up not knowing God, his purpose, or the depth of his grace and mercy first had which leave gateways open for us to fall prey to the tricks of Satan and turn our backs on the only one who can save our souls, who is the very one who created us.  We have been screaming Black Live Matters, let me inform you that black awareness matters and your understanding of the Word of God Ma

“Don’t misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to abolish the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets. No, I came to accomplish their purpose. 18 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not even the smallest detail of God’s law will disappear until its purpose is achieved. 19 So if you ignore the least commandment and teach others to do the same, you will be called the least in the Kingdom of Heaven. But anyone who obeys God’s laws and teaches them will be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven.

20 “But I warn you—unless your righteousness is better than the righteousness of the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees, you will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven!

I have just read to you Matthew 5:17-20

The goal is to live a life of righteousness and purpose so that you can experience the  Kingdom of Heaven.  Scripture is clear: religiosity is not the answer; submission to the King is the only way to assure that your name is magnified in the KIngdom of Heaven. 

It is very easy for us  to get caught up in the ways of the world, and to base our righteousness on how we feel, what we understand, and what we desire, but sincere righteousness that is acceptable in the eyes of God is only established and maintained when we submit with complete understand that the King of Kings has set the standard of righteousness, and has outlined his law which is not up for negotiation. 

Many want to define their righteousness  by their church attendance, religious engagement of activities, or their commitment to charitable projects.  These works, although commendable, they alone do not define righteousness. Our works should stem first from a heart and mindset that is committed and submitted to the righteousness of God, Verse 5 of Mathew 5 tells us that God blesses or is pleased with those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, so you see righteousness is first an inner work.

We have declared this year as the year we crush religion as we become intentional about exalting the Kingdom of God.  I am here to tell you that Satan is not all about us positioning ourselves to be intentional about the Kingdom of God, see religious mindsets are working just fine for him, exalting traditions, and rituals over the Kingdom of God is how he gets his glory.

Prepare you mind, body, and spirit for the test because if Satan had the audacity to attempt to sway Jesus, God in flesh, rest assure you will surely be tested not once, not twice, but many, many times over and over.  The question for each of you this morning is can God trust you, so that he can effective use you for the building of His Kingdom

We are imperfect people. We will make mistakes and mishaps are inevitable, but it’s God’s mercy that sustains us.  

Mercy and grace are often used interchangeably. They do not mean the same thing, but they are related and may be considered two sides of the same coin of salvation. When God saves a person, He extends both mercy and grace.

Mercy is forgiving the sinner and withholding the punishment that is justly deserved. Grace is heaping undeserved blessings upon the sinner.  www.BibleDeliverance.org
