The top of my message see there's a little funny story behind this messages that I prepared this message for last week. and end lo and behold it was fifth Sunday at lost track of Sundays and evangelist Donna. Could you tell me the name of your message last week?
Choose Jesus. Yes. The Jesus is always there and you can always call on him and I said I kind of put a smile in myself all the way through your message cuz I said, you know, my message is call on his name Jesus Hallelujah, you are supposed to teach the children that you know, he's always they're calling him when you need them.
What am I scripture message today is coming from Jeremiah 33:3 just one and I'll put up in a second. But if you want to jot it down Jeremiah 33:3, you can't forget that number 333. So Jeremiah is the book and it says car lot to me and I will answer thee and show you Great and Mighty things which thou know, it's not.
Praise the Lord now. I want to start off this message with a with a little story about who remembers the terrorist snipers that drove around Washington DC area and and operated out of a trunk of a car in. And before they were arrested, they killed 10 and wounded three.
What you may not know is that prayer Pray to fight a vital role in bringing those culprits down. Ec50 Christian truckers got together and they talked and they called each other on the radio and they said, you know, we're going to get together and we're going to pray that the snipers be caught in a man named Ron Lance was scheduled to retire soon. Didn't even live in the Washington area. He lives over in the Kentucky state of Kentucky. But are you sure fell God would answer the prayers of the truckers? In fact, he told the others after the first prayer meeting. He says, you know, I feel led that God's going to use me to help capture these people. It's a few days after the began to pray. Ron was traveling and listen to radio on traveling on the highway and the radio announcement came on and he decides to pull over into the closest truck stop and listen to the newscast is he was a few miles away from the where the first prayer meeting took place unless he pulled into a rest stop you notice the car. In the car fits the description of the sniper. And of course, they had a license plate number, so we strength and look at the license plate that says oh my lord. It's the car. We called the police.
Genesis of the longest 15 minutes of his life He pulled his truck in front of the exit ramp of the rest stop so nobody could get out. And the teams are the police and the FBI surrounded the two men for that God they were sleeping in the car and there was a peaceful arrest.
but the rest of the stories in history, they were arrested they were tried and they were convicted in the whole ordeal went down without an interest without any incident. This came from a Presidential Prayer Team website and there's a Presidential Prayer team. Org. It's where this group of people that gather and they they pray for our government and they tell incredible stories like that. Incredible. Yes. Unbelievable. No, not for a Believer Jeremiah. 33 says we serve a God who gives incredible answers to prayer.
Jeremiah 33:2 that says call unto me and I will answer you. And I will tell you Great and Mighty things which you do not know. You don't see all of God begins this statement with a command car lot to me. Not when you want to not when you're feeling low is his car lots with me not when you're high and fly and high and then do the joint life car lot to me.
Any will you see what the command is based on two? Very important factors that I want to talk to you about first a pair of person that is praying. Is understanding that he has limitations. This is implied by saying Mighty things. What you do not know you see what Jeremiah wrote This Promise from God. He was in jail.
33:1 says he's in prison. Jerusalem has been conquered and destroyed he longed for a restoration. That is beyond his grasp. There is nothing that here anybody in Israel could do to restore restore Israel, Judea.
nose With this message your mind we my wife and I Lady B. We were watching the TV show. Hennessy it was in between World War 1 and then between World War II and one of the heroes veterans he was a sniper.
They put him in in the Salem Asylum.
Does he lost his mind?
Sully character went to the same Asylum
and said here take this.
It'll put you out of your misery. He's been sitting in the prison in the dark prison cell. Padded room just like in the olden days and he says here take this. It'll put you out of your misery. You have no life in here. The man in the silence says no.
and he said things will change maybe one day things will change so wherever you are. Whatever dark Cellular in whenever bit of captivity you're in or whatever chain is bonding you whatever hold the saying has on you. There is a promise.
God's word to them is asked me to do what you cannot do call on me.
Second the person is admitting.
The God has the answers to their needs. He said call unto me.
We're not called to call on Buddha not called. We're not called to tell them we're not call Zach Smith Jim Jones David. Koresh Yoda, or anybody else worth calls to call upon him.
You see all that stuff piled in the corner. Don't Heap a pile of a cow chip house that God tells us to call on me. So you asked you is me in the passage, who is me? The me is none other than God himself. The mini is Jesus. No, shut up. That's all Mighty God telling me. I have a god high above all others, LOL the Everlasting God who is without beginning or without a pencil roll hides the God who sees me the guardian the helper of those who fear Him?
Our Lord has so many names. It's Jehovah Nissi the Lord. My banner is Jehovah Shalom. The Lord of Peace by the Lord is my shepherd is the Lord who is there? Abba The father, it's Emmanuel God With Us manifested in the flesh the Lamb of God who takes away the truth of the lights the resurrection and lights the words. That's right, high priest and set it to where it's the truth. It's alive. It's the head of the body. It's the Good Shepherd the only begotten son of the father of the living bread come down from heaven. It's the faithful witness the prince of the kings of the Earth. learn
I'm not through yet.
He is the bridegroom. He is the alpha omega. He is the first and he is the last he is the lion of the tribe of Judah Glamis Lane foundation of the world. She is such a thing as a Lord of lords. He is a bright and Morning Star is the Lord Jesus Christ.
God's instruction is it called upon me? If you are in the red, he says calling to me Jehovah. Gyro. I will supply your needs. He said if you are sick, he says call on me your body. If you are confused and you need direction. He says call on me Mighty counselor, and I'll give you counsel. He says if you feel alone, he says call on me Jehovah some up or I am the Lord who was there if you are going through the valley of the shadow of death. He says call unto me Jehovah. Rohi where I am the Good Shepherd. Can I have with you?
If you are hungry, he's just called on me the living bread. If you are thirsty, he says call on me the foundation of the Living Waters and out of your belly will flow the waters. I've been living life. Just knowing who this man is should motivate you to respond to his call.
man I promised myself I wasn't going to run around today. I was going to stay put I was going to jump out to this side of that side. I wasn't going to run down the aisle.
So that's why I'm holding the sides of this public are not going anywhere. You sing a song 50152 Summer Street chords of the following invitation. They call upon me in the day of trouble. I shall rescue you and you will honor me.
Psalm 91 14 and 15 God speaks to the one who trusts in the Lord and says Because he has loved me therefore. I will deliver him. I will set him securely on high because he has known my name. He will call upon me and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will rescue him and honor him.
You are never alone. We sing about it. We shout about it and we pray about it, but you you know it you know it in your heart.
His promise to us is promised to us. I will answer thee and show thee God promises to do two things two things for those who cry out to him and I will answer thee. I see Michael understood that if God does not answer your prayer and the prophets have will have no message to offer. Think about it. Prophetic light will go out without Vision. This will throw the nation into chaos. Diversity Michael says on the other hand because God had answered his prayer. I am filled with the power of the spirit and with Justice and courage to make known to Jacob this rebellious act even to Israel his send listen, every rebuke is better than silence.
What prayer stop God is silent when the people pray God answers? I got to say that again would prayer stops got excited when people pray God answers and mighty things.
Are you with me today?
You see your situation may be a bit more serious than a lost key.
Perhaps you need the direction in your life. Perhaps you need deliverance from your health situation. Perhaps you need an answer from God on your hurting marriage. Maybe you need a job or financial assistance. To keep you from losing your home, whatever you need. Call Pizza Hut. God has an answer for you. If you call upon him you see God answers those who call upon him his Provisions are greater than our petitions. This is important his Provisions are greater than our petitions.
a man follow to set in the fusions when he wrote and now to him that is able to do exceeding things abundantly beyond all that. We ask or think. To him be the glory.
See you in a little boy place the small lunch in Jesus's hand if it's five thousand people there was enough left over to 12 till 12 bushes. You see after the women gathered empty vessel shut the door began pouring oil into the vessels from her a little bottle of oil the flow of oil only stopped when there's no more room to contain all the oil God's provision. He will give you more. You have to ask for it. You have to pray for it to have to get down on your knees. Do you have to give you have to realize that you don't have all the answers you have to realize that God has the answers.
closing shortly
one day George Muller look down at the streets of Bristol England and saw hundreds of homeless children.
He was so touched it decided that he had to do something about it. The only had two set two pence in his pocket to pissed was $0.02. What do you decided to start an orphan orphanage? And then the 60 years beginning with $0.02 in his pocket? George Muller took care of over 10000 orphans. You could have said I don't have any money. He could have said I have no way. There's no way that I can care for these kids who need help. I don't have any money to buy them foods to give them shelter and he's looked at them and said I will reach out and help them. I will reach out to you and I will help you and God blessed his efforts in a mighty way 60 years of ministry. George Muller never solicited funds from anyone. Instead he committed himself to pray and ask God for what he needed to keep the orphanage running 60 years of ministry. George Mueller kept a record of all his prayers.
Is prayer records filled over 3000 pages? His notes showed him that over thirty thousand prayers were answered.
Is he one night? There is no food in your Xfinity to give the children for breakfast but 3 in the morning the baker call him up and woke up. He says I just can't sleep. I'm going to the bakery to bake. Do you need any food?
One day a milk truck broke down in front of the orphanage.
And they had no milk in the driver said you can you use some milk cuz it's going to go bad by that time. I get a replacement truck time and time again 30060 years. God answer George melies prayers.
You see my brothers and sisters the secret to answered prayers is to pray. The secret to unanswered prayers is to stop praying.
Paul encouraged Pastor Timothy let your requests be known. Let your requests be known to God James declared if you have not because you ask not.
if you have not because you ask not
if we don't have what he wants if we don't have what he wants us to have it's only because we have not asked. Lettuce call unto him. Let us call unto him some of us needs to take God for his word and call up there him. I said some of us needs to take God for his work on whether your stuff or whether you're better than you think you can never get up calling to him.
And he will answer. And he will give us access to what you thought was unreachable.
d-will answer us and give us access to which you thought was unreachable. And make us understand. And make us understand what has been unknowable.
Reach out to you Lord, Jesus reach out to your God reach out to your God your father Abba. He will answer you.
Man in the precious name of Jesus. I pray.
