The time of my message today is God Wants You in 2025.
As I prayed about, he wants your Deeds to be done your work. But most of all what he wants is you first, Hallelujah, me to 15222 I'm looking at, not the people of New Life to be hypocrites. Because Hypocrites, are people that say one thing and do another?
People claim to be God's people.
But really don't serve the god. That they say they're serving. Those people I'm going to call Hippocrates cuz that's what it is.
It's always not the nicest things that come from this spot in the Pulpit. But they're things of truth. There's things that need to be said
Am I convicted by the word today? Do I need help?
Get me on the right track.
I know lady pees going to yell at me because don't get too excited on the 4th of today, too much pressure on on your face.
And I'm going to try to and I said I was going to come in here is going to be calm and it's going to be a quiet message today and I'll try to do my best. You see the Pharisees with the Jesus.
For the sole purpose of angering him. You see Roman rule over Israel at the time. And Hebrews hated. The Romans. they knew that the fairest of the Pharisees new, That Jesus was ethical. He was a Jew. They knew that Jesus would agree that the taxes needed to be paid to Caesar. They also knew that the Jews and the people that I'm hated, Caesar. so, if Jesus could be publicly
Called-out. Publicly shown to agreed that you needed to pay your taxes. The people would start to despise Jesus. And no longer wish to hear what he had to say.
Jesus said to the people that they shouldn't pay taxes, he would be charged with a revolt and arrested. See Jesus. Stop them right where they live. Yes, we're coin. And pointed to Caesars image on the coin. The image of Caesar on the coin signify that it was Caesars property. so he said they must give to Caesar
What belongs to Caesar?
The image denotes wants property.
Jesus said we must give God. What is God's? You see God?
Man is in God's image.
We were designed to look like him. Jesus told the Pharisees to give their lives to God since they were in God's image. Meaning.
They were hypocrites.
For they profess. They did live for God.
You want to know if I get to Caesar?
I want to know if you give to God,
Sissy image and name, Fulton 2K property. And since Man was created in God's image, We must be. People of the name.
if you want to be his pee,
if this is the only thing that you remember from this first, 5. It is you that God wants. It is you he wants you to. Your life. He wants you. In your heart and your soul to him, you belong to him.
Just believers. But all mankind was created in God's image. We were created to be God's possession.
Matthew 7:21 23 says, not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord will enter the king of kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the wind is my father who is in heaven on that day. Many will say unto me. Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name? Did we not cast out and do many mighty works in your name? And then we'll I declare to them. I never knew you. Depart from me. You workers of lawlessness.
These people cried, Lord, Lord.
They weren't doing it for the complete reason. They were empty shells, working Deeds. That were told them that they should too.
Put it all won't matter when we hit Heaven's Door.
God doesn't want to see, just the Deeds alone that were done in his name. He wants you. To be in his name. Whose name means you are hitting yourself to your Lord and Savior, Jesus.
It's simple. But complicated. It's simple. Would you maybe afraid to do it?
Friends don't treat me like they used to. Are you afraid about losing those friends? They're going to keep you away from Heaven's Door.
Jesus said, he will respond to such people, by saying I never knew. I knew what you did. I know those feelings. I know those me, but you miss the point.
You see he wants you. He wants you. Unconditionally, he wants you to thank him in the morning, he wants you to think. I'm in the noon time, they come with your foot your head.
But you miss the point. He wants you. He loves you. Depart from me, you workers of iniquity.
I don't want just the Deeds Done in my name.
Jesus pointed to the people. And said, depart from me.
You see if we don't depart from iniquity. We will depart from him. When are you free? Are you afraid of? Somebody laughing at you. Are you afraid of somebody calling you a bible? Thumper? A Jesus Freak? Are you afraid of losing a friend? He's not really your friend. when you get down to brass tacks,
you see Jesus really knows who those people are, he knows it. He knows about you already. I don't need to point it out. You don't have to point it out. You don't have to hide from it. He knows.
But if you profess his name, you have to show it. Rid yourself of the iniquity in your life. Rid yourself of these.
these were people. You see, baptism in his name, washes away, your sins. And if you give your life to him, he'll set you straight.
A man of this world, a woman of this.
Just don't use his name Bobby people of his name.
He wants your good deeds when and when you believe in him and you give your life to him,
Not only you are doing the good thieves, you have given your life to him and are doing what's right? You're doing the Christian thing.
Give yourself to him. And you will do good. Deeds naturally.
Render not your Deeds, know your words, render yourselves unto your God. John it. Sweetheart, we must surrender ourselves to God.
Jesus said that those who do the father's will. To enter the kingdom.
His will. Begun in you. That means. You are that hits.
The diseased Eaton, Matthew 7:21 but Jesus said they couldn't enter for only doing the father's will allows one to enter. In other words, doing good? Deeds is not the will, that Jesus is speaking about the will of God involves you. Personally, he wants to know Pastor Birch. He wants to know, Lady, Peace. Elder Marcia.
And we have a fresh start in 2025.
Learned. Put in March forward.
Jesus said the will of my father.
Jesus knows them that are his give yourself. Give yourself to do, God's will. Be the Sun. Be the daughter of God this year in 2025, be in his name. This is a fresh clean slate for you.
When you go to school, when you go to work, you know the people you shouldn't hang with. You know the people that may be there in the cool club or if maybe that's your age, maybe they're in a hangout with
but if you know, They don't or are not living their lives, right? They're not two people to be hanging out with. Be your own man. Be your own woman. Be your own guy girl. Be strong. Be a leader in school.
Give your
you see the things? That are rare called precious. Precious.
1st Samuel 31 seems we are precious. We are valuable. We are rare. There is no one else like you.
If we are his possessions, we are precious and valuable rare. Where everyone who says Lord, Lord gives themselves, hold the God. And that's my key for you for 2025. I don't need you to give me your self. It's not going to get you anywhere. My job to encourage you to give your life to Christ. It's my job to be able to lead you to your God and savior. It's my job to preach the word. The right thing in your life to stand strong, amongst the wolves and don't be the one. You don't want to stay after school, if you don't want to get fired from your job cuz you're hanging out with the wrong crew.
Many say they're Christians.
If you are true, Christians.
Those are the hypocrites.
Come and listen, come to church and listen. Come to church to learn. And when you're ready to say, I want the Lord Jesus in my life and when you have questions then come to lady. Come to the come over. Will you ever come to Deaconess? The leaders of the church and they will guide you, they will answer your question and I can't find the answer for you and then they will go straight in the way of the Lord.
we need to open our eyes and see the riches of our inheritance that is entitled to us if we get
There's three events that we have in our life year.
We are born. And we passed away. And a third major event is given our lives to Christ. when we become born again,
we need to open our eyes. We need to wear the name of the his badge on her lapel. Ephesians 1:18 says, the eyes of your understanding are being enlightened. They may know what it is, the hope of his calling. In what the riches of Glory of his inheritance. In the Saints is.
We're traveling through. We have eternity to look forward to.
I want to be. I want to be there. I want to do my job. I was given this task. I have this responsibility to talk to preach and teach to every single one of you to let you know what it is to be a child of God 2025. I'm asking you to just give your life to him. What truly open up. What he sent the disciples out, he send them out, he didn't send them out with luggage, he didn't send them out with food.
He will provide. He will provide somebody.
He will provide somebody to where the extra clothes. Do you have that much faith?
I'd be scared.
Somebody said, leave your house and go. Take your wife and go. Leave everything behind and go and preach the gospel to the good news of Jesus.
I'd be scared. You have to find this fate many times in 2024, I was scared. and when you turn, And pray, you lord and savior, he will give you that Comfort. He will give you that piece, he will give you that free.
Hey.
Just give it to him.
Open your eyes to 2025, it's you that God wants. That's the message. It's you that God wants.
get rid of those extra shoes, get rid of those extra coat, get rid
He wants you. get rid of those friends, those people there was a climb out of your conference, no more get rid of
You see why Satan hates God's image?
Realize the value of your inheritance? This will help you. To do God's will. Be in His image. But the spirit leads you, I tell you the holy spirit is here for you.
Going out for you covering for you.
Look at the benefit that you have. Be strong. Be strong cuz that's what it's going to take.
I got a message coming up, it's called the race.
Don't come to church for emotion.
Come to church for the right thing. Come to church because it's the right thing to do.
Come to church is going to be hard coming to church. Being a Christian is hard, if you think you're going to have a successful marriage because your emotion Will power. You have to come to church. You have to work for it.
But you get to see your inheritance.
Don't care about you. What reputation? Don't care about what people are going to think about. You don't care that thing. People think that you're the best, looking guy, dressed the most Sharps, you're the cutest little girl where the best outfits be the one who loves Christ.
And be strong in that knowledge.
What is real is you? Now, what you wear. Now what you try. I want to house you live. What's real is you? That's all God wants.
The Son and the Holy Ghost.
He wants you.

You really your sins at the foot of the cross. And once you give it to him, forget about it. Forget about it, cuz Jesus Will. No need for you. Give your life to God. Amen. Church. Happy New Year.
