It Will Come Out In The Fire

Back in the 60s, 50s and 60s. That day. I don't know how they did it, but they made a waterfall of Fire. And you'll send me Park. 3000 ft. I don't know if they were pouring fuel oil or what it was. They they made a waterfall fire in the in Yosemite Park. The story is inside while they were doing that, people were coming and the economy started growing in that area. And because they say they just come and just live there to end and if you're attracted people there, but then. But then I thought you were all the economy is over robust. So it's a little bit too big for so they cut the fire off. They never did do it again and the economy just went back down. and if you'll think about it just the same way, with the Christian Life with the man or woman of God, is you allow your relationship with Christ to dissipate so does the fire But I know where in the world is that we could allow a stream of fire, run down the side of a mountain.

I never could do anything on fire. That's just awesome... Just don't know how they did it but they did it. But God is the one that provided it and he is good acts chapter 28 verse 1 through 9.

And when they were escaped, they nude nude that the island was called mulita. and the barbarous people showed us showed us little kindness for the for they can delay fire and received us everyone because of the present rain and because of the cold and when Paul had gathered, the bundle of sticks and laid it on the Fire, The game of Viper out of the Heat and fastened on, on the hand. and when the Barbarian saw that the venomous Beast hung on his hand, they said among themselves, no doubt, this man is a murderer home, dial, he hath escaped the scene and yet Vengeance suffers not to do And he shook off the Beast Into the Fire and felt no horn. How did they look when they when he when he should have swollen and falling down dead? But after they have looked on a great while and saw no harm come to him? They change their mind and they said, he is a God and that's a little G. In the same quarter in the same quarters were possessions of the chief man of the island whose name was cumulus. I guess, that's right. Who who received us and live us three days courteously. And it came to pass that the father of Lasik and a fever and of the bloody flux. And to whom Paul entered and prayed and laid his hand on him and killed him. so when when this was done by others, also, which diseases in the land came and were healed, Not Emily. Father. Lord, I ask you Lord for your blessings upon this message. What? I ask you Lord to speak through me, use me Heavenly Father, Lord. I'll give you all the glory and all the honor Lord. Amen. You know, it's very difficult to go through life without asking questions.

And for some without asking questions, it doesn't bring comfort. Very question of why. And that question of why we ask God is not a question of disrespect is just a question of seeking information.

And if you were supporting me in the classroom and never gives me the opportunity to ask questions,

I would never learn.

And with we learn by our mistakes and by growing and going back to yours mistakes and knowing what we have done wrong and correcting. It You are a testimony. You are a life of a testimony. We should be living our lives. Like, we are living a testimony. Going out to the streets and witnessing. And I'm going out to the streets and just handing out tracts and ministering to other people. It really to win, people over to the South, same salvation that you have. Is merely living out a testimony before them.

Ma'am. May I even suggest that you may even be living out of streaming. Your own very own sermon before people.

There are 66 books in the Bible. And just perhaps, as ever, I've an idea of a thought you could be writing the 67th by book in the Bible.

Completing it. Your testimony and even even in Hebrews chapter 11, you can go in there, you can find the the, the heroes are face. And those Heroes of Faith are in there. And they're, they are giving their testimony in Hebrews chapter 11.

You can even go, you can even go where or where Moses was standing up on the Rock and he lives off his list of his bride before the sea, and tells the people to stand and watch the salvation of the Lord. You can go to another place where Isaiah is standing in the inside the temple and in and he says, well, with me for a stand, among the sooner, you are important to the Angel and the end in the Smoke. Filled the temple in it, and it's in the sheriff from. Shut. The shut, the shut. The killers. You can take all in that account, but you can look at those stories. But what about your own testimony? What about your own testing? What can you tell people of of your own testimony in your own life? Does happen. I believe, with all my heart that there are people watching you today watching me today and watching to see how we are going to complete the testimony.

They're going to see how you fall and they're going to see how you react. They're going to see if you're going to stay down or if you going to rise back up and dust yourself off and get back on the phone again and keep on riding. have you ever said Okay God I've had enough. Satan has has camped out at my doorstep long enough. I've had my quota. What is it that I need to do to get him off but sometimes God doesn't want. Stir, the problem the move, but the problem to move us. Because if we wants to move the problem, we would never ever know how to have that problem was fixed and how we're even overcame that problem. The testimony would be complete would not be finish, but the testimony of your life is going and telling people that have you overcame a sickness to see how you overcame cancer, how you overcame Astro, how you overcame things in life?

Life without trouble is a life without the presence of God. Yes, it may be hard a Time.

But then if there was never ever any trouble in your life, I would be worried and Beads asking myself. Am I right was gone? Because if there's no trouble in your life, that means you are not a threat.

You are not a threat.

God is a provisional God. Isn't it amazing? That God will will provide the very need that you have even in the midst of the trial that you are having. But yet, still going through the trial, not taking you out of it, supplying the need but still getting you through the trial.

You see that there's fire, there is God. You see that Paul came on Shore and he sat down and he was going to, he was going to adjust commune with the with the barbarians that words that were there. But that means that they were very hateful to him. They didn't want them there that they were, but because it was cold and it was raining. Accepting them all went over and you got a bundle of wood and brought it back over and put it into the fire. Rated into the farthest from the Viper came out and latched onto his arm. Let me tell you something. When I applied for last, John to 5% at home there. Venomous snake hung on his hand has, come on, and Paul had to shake him off.

Director of that, much venom that went into his hand. Would have killed probably in army.

We are looking at, we are looking in all the wrong places of life to get the answers of God. You don't have to go searching for the provision of God, because the provision of God is already there. Let me tell you something. Before you were even born. God said at the very time in life is that the problem is going to begin, because God knows your future. God knows you even that you're 50 years old before you Provisions have already been there. It's been waiting for you the whole time. It's only thing we need to do is doing it with confidence and knowing that God is there in the fire is going to bring you through it. You look at Shadrach Meshach in a Bendigo whenever they wanted, they were founded. The only thing that was burned off them with the thing that was holding them in restraints. I did. You may go in the fire restraint but you'll come out free.

We go looking for ways to defeat the thing that we are going. We are going through we go looking for excuses for the way we live our lives.

I would rather for a church member to tell me they have no peanut butter is a reason why they did not come to church.

My peanut butter. because one, excuse is as good as another

You know, you know, you know, you've been there, you've already done it so happy.

Paul. Paul had enough excuses.

Before they even put foot onto the ship. Kid told the ship captain, there's going to be a storm.

Another storm is going to be kind of stressful. But the ship captain he said don't worry about it. I know what I'm doing. I've been doing this for you but keep your mouth shut and get onto the steps to get onto the ship. So he did was obedient. He got onto the ship, he was on the ship, he was restrained, he was here. He had a cousin he when he was restrained and he was tied down. But whenever the ship came to arrest, he was set free. He had freedom. He grabbed a hold of a board, he told everyone to grab ahold of board that not a single person will perish today. Not today, not on this one, it's not on guys. What's because I am declaring that God is here to say. Whenever you can declare that God is in the midst of your trials, you know, you can go through confidence and whenever you can come to lunch while and you know that God is there she is. Already providing a provision is all we need to do. Is say God lead me to look for Show me what I need to know because I don't want to be like in each roll. Go around that mountain for tee times.

How many times are you going around the same trial?

Asking God, what is it that I'm missing?

I'm going to tell you. Call had enough excuses that he could that whenever he got onto the ship and I don't know what to tell you. Even got up on the he could have got up onto the shore and then he said got it. God, that does the snake bit me? I don't know what to tell you what am I supposed to do? I mean, that. I wouldn't be our normal excuse, but it wasn't for Paul, he endured it for Paul, he just shut it off and he kept on going. But the very the very tough. He was living out Broadway, Revival to that Island.

Rock Revival to that Island.

What about the blessing that is already in the provision? We missed because we made excuse. You will always have an excuse for, why?

And Satan will always give you an excuse, but God will always provide. The provision different sir. think, we'll give you the excuse but God will provide

I feel sorry for God.

Think about it.

We go living our lives. Like we are the ones that are sucking in the air. A God is the one that's making making a way for us to suck in the air because if you didn't have those lungs, there would be no way you would you be able to suck on that? Are

God gave you a provision to live through life.

Don't walk. We walk around at we walk around our workplace. You walk around our house moping and everything were still sucking in there. How much can you there? I had cancer but I'm still standing brother. Jerry can say I've had a stroke but I'm still standing, but it's all because of the provision of God. All because of the provision of God.

We sleep, like we have no problems. Sometimes.

We drive. The provision of God and sometimes we even drive the provision of God out, and we miss the blessing.

He could cut you off at any given time. And say this is mine. You are no longer having it.

Down you go.

But God isn't like that. He's a loving God. He wants to lead you through life. He wants to give you the blessings. He wants you to have a dinner, like he wants to take you through the fire. He wants to be in the fire with you. We want you to be on fire. Not only be in the fire but he wants you to be on fire. There's a difference between being in the fire and being on fire. We need to do. We need to get to where we're at. We're not in the fire but we are on fire forgot whenever we can get to a place with God. As with a burning desire that we wake up at the only that. The only thing we can think of is giving God praise and giving God the glory for take out next to breast. When we are saying God, I need you, I need you. I thank you. Lord, for waking me up one more time. Thank you. I appreciate you saying, you are on. Fire.

And whenever we can go into a grocery store, you hear the Holy Spirit speak of you, pray for that person that just passed. You, you never saw them. You don't know who they are. You don't know how they live their life or anything but John said to pray for them. You stopped without hesitation and you pray that the sign you are on fire for God. Whatever you can go out to your work place and you got tells you to stop and pray for someone you don't know never seen them. You know, you never worked around them, you never been around for them and it doesn't matter where you, right.

You could be on fire for God.

Rather be in the fire. How about we turn it on fire? For God.

We become on fire for God.

Peter goes and gatherers the wood. Because he knew if he didn't, the fire would go out. No, mind you.

It was raining.

It was pouring down rain and they still built the fire. God provided a way for the fire to be built. Even in the rain.

John still provided a way for the fire to be built. So even in our own struggles, God can still build a fire in our lives. God can still build a fire and our online. Yes, it is good. Yes. It's going to be hard at times. Yes, we are going to stand in the Heat and yes, might get a little hot but I'm telling you right now that he and the hotness of it is why God likes. Because Donna said, if you could, I would rather for you to be cold or warm, I will spew you out of my mouth. And another translation is in vomit.

I will vomit you out.

There's a cure for lukewarmness. Get on fire for God.

Get on fire for God.

Getting the the wood that Paul was getting. And then the Viper jumps out that begin to examine their his hand. And they said that he was a god. A little G. Paul could have taken the glory.

But he didn't, he said, it's because of God. Making a way to minister unto you. I was ordained to be here to be in front of you. I don't know how many people that I have ever stood in front of it wasn't by accident. It was not by accident right there at the fountain when it when it's a busy, most busiest place right there. And also people are coming and getting a drink as a shield right there because someone else said you were Pastor us. Yes, pray for me. I need you to pray for me and I'm sure what I didn't know who I didn't take the time to even ask them for their name and I just your damn prayed and I and I wonder where they go. It's living out your testimony before people to know you are. You don't have to go and put you a big old blimp up saying I'm a man or woman of God. You got to do is just live for God Whatever Whenever you are on fire for God there is a goal that is about you. That people notice there's something about you that a difference, there's something about you that whenever they get close enough to you to take him feel it, they can know it. They know that you are a man or woman of God because of the fire that because of the burning desire that you want four guys, burning desire to minister to other people did the burning desire to see.

Rather than being in the fire. How about being on?

Before God.

How do we keep the fire burning?

We go to these conferences and we go and we take young people to use counseling and stuff like that. How do we keep the fire burning? Prayer.

Prayer. Keep it hot.

Keep your prayer closet hot.

Keep the altar of God hot.

Keep you all turn your own rent on your own house hot before God keep it hot.

Paul went and got more more wood to burn, but we can go to the altar of God and we can get. So we can just stand there and we begin to pray, falling our knees before God and pray for God. Keeping you alter hot. Even if you need someone to play with it with your prayer partner, if you don't have a prayer partner to get it for their partner, if you need to study, but he did a study buddy, but get in the word of God and did in prayer. It's important. It's the most vital part of your relationship with God. If we don't pray, there's no relationship. I mean, I want to be whenever your husband or wife from work and they just don't say a word to, you should go straight to the kitchen. What you want to eat? What kind of relationship is that? But whenever you go to your wife and you did the first thing that you do, you going find her and you, and you give her a kiss and you tell her that you love her and maybe have a conversation and then you again, and then when she gets up and she texts you and she sent you now, because the mill is already ready. You may have already been late but the meal is ready to sit you down, she prepares a meal for you and a relationship. Do you have a relationship with God without never have any person? Even having anybody tell you, you can Uber turn on your Bible or open your Bible,

We got more ways to look at the Bible there to read the Bible the day more than we have ever. God has made his so acceptable easy at our fingertips.

To get into the word of God.

Tell you there's some things in here that you can read that, blow your mind.

I can blow your mind, some stuff that you may have never ever song. Or maybe something in there that you read many many of times but John all of a sudden bring something new out of that same purse. Even your your most favorite verse out of the whole word of God. You may send me and may have said it many more times and you begin to say one more time and then something pops out of there and your life. What how could I miss this?

Is the fire of God that brings out the brand new thing hate. Let me tell you something.

Revelations, that tells us that the elders around. And they go around the Throne of God, worshipping him telling him where they were the, are you Lord, God Almighty, Connor, power and praise. And each time they go around.

How many Millennials, how many, how many seasons have they gone around the Throne of God, and each time they come back around, they realize of something new of God and they do it again because they got so excited because I found something new of God. You will never ever run out of finding something new about God. You will never ever run out of a revelation that God is going to give you a something new that's in the verse of God that you that you have read many times, you will never ever broke people, never ever grow bored of God. God, always love God, always makes the flame hotter. Sometimes brings it down to be a little bit of your time, but then there's a time that God's going to bring it back up, but we are, we are the ones that are in the fire. We are the one that control it. When we are the ones that control, how about we get before God we are or how lukewarm, we are something you do you eat something called you. Scream, it's good. You eat. You drink something as hot as good but when you go on you drinking lukewarm coffee.

It's been a Breakout.

That's the same thing with God.

He would rather for you to be cold or hot but not lukewarm.

It gave us that same, we would know.

So that we would know.

The sign of a true Christian. There is going to be a fire.

A sign of a true Christian, will always be a provision. A sign of a true Christian will always be protection. It will always come out in the fire.

Whatever has been hidden in that hidden in that trial will always come out in fire but it's not going to harm you. You've got the protection, there's a fire protection, fire provision and the fire of protection.

In Psalms chapter 81 verse 10. It says I am the Lord your God who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, open your mouth wide and I will fill it.

Open your mouth wide.

If we're seeking for the Holy Spirit, you cannot get the Holy Spirit by closing your mouth, your mouth must be open. Psalms 84:11, the Lord. George for the Lord, God is a sun and shield the Lord, bestows favor and honor. No, good thing. Does he withhold from those who walk uprightly?

Matthew 6, verse 31 and 32. Therefore do not be anxious saying, what shall we eat? What shall we drink? What shall we wear for the Gentiles seek after all these things and your heavenly father shows and heavenly father knows that you need them all Philippians 4:19. And my God Will Supply every need of yours of yours according to his riches and glory in Christ Jesus.

I'm going to close with this on matching, you heard it and I must say it again.

Whenever I was growing up.

Being in Raton, New Mexico.

Fifth grade. I had some health problems and only, did I have health problems that also had learning problems?

And during that time, the doctors were saying your son's about to go in the hospital. And then on the other side, the school was saying your son is retarded.

And the only thing that he's going to be able to do is just go to a trade school and that's as far as he's going to be able to go.

Now, I'm going to tell you, I'm not the best reader.

First of all, I don't like to read. Just I don't know. I just don't

But I'm not going to college.

I went through several different universities.

And my mom is told me many times. I wish those people that said, you were retarded to see you now

My wife has helped me out me through so many different learning curves that without her. I was on her. I don't know if I could have done it, but I did do it. There's encouragement there. She had to kick my butt a few times along the way.

You don't take Orion that.

I'm telling you. There isn't nothing in God that you cannot do. There is nothing in God that you cannot do. I don't remember in my 6th grade moving to free or not free or, but Old Salem, Texas. Alyssa came up and I hate prayed for me. He said that, you know, if you would memorize one scripture for a week, God will heal your mind. And I took that to heart. I did it and God healed my mind.

He healed my mind. I'm telling you right now, the provision of God is real. Is real.

He is real. Sometimes it's a little tough for us to get to, but it's real. God's provision is real, God's provision will take you farther than you could ever thought of join. Were you thought that you would not be able to make it this far? God is taking you so long as you want your Market. Even just want you to go, Woods, got to take a new pastor y'all and you didn't even know you passed it.

Because of the provision of God.

God is good. He is good, brother. You play something, I'm telling you right now. there is nothing greater or more better. Thank God. Song this time that we live in, it is not getting any better. The time, it's just not getting better. It's just getting closer and closer and closer for the coming of God. But there is going to be a day that we're going to be looking at those Eastern sky. So, we're going to see Heaven, open up, and she's a step out on the cloud to receive the bride.

whether we are ready or not,

he's coming.

And using it be like that school bus that stops in front of the house and honks for you. Wait for you to come out, he's going to be saying. Let's go. the time is now,

So if we are not, if we are not totally right with God and I'm telling you just just a little bit of sin in your life is what them keep you from going to heaven. We are getting so close.

We are getting so close.

If your heart is not right with God, let us pray with you. And look, no one in here is going to down you or nothing. That's not what this is about. Winning the soul before. God winning the soul before God.

It's simple. Asking God to forgive you, your sins.

God, I'm only father.

Lord. I Thank you Lord for your word. I thank you. Heavenly Father. Lord for Your Provisions that you do give us.

Done, I ask you. Lord. Emily father. Border Terriers one person with that is not right with you. Don't let them use the same way they came in. Let them leave this place changed Lord. A newborn creature. God before you or got him only father Lord, I asked you guy or did you and make this happen? God will give you all the glory will give you all the honor and we thank you. Jesus. We thank you. Heavenly Father.

We thank you, mighty God.

Is anyone here this morning and need special prayer?
