The Spoils

2 Kings 7:3–9 KJV 1900

3 And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die? 4 If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die. 5 And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians: and when they were come to the uttermost part of the camp of Syria, behold, there was no man there. 6 For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us. 7 Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life. 8 And when these lepers came to the uttermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went and hid it; and came again, and entered into another tent, and carried thence also, and went and hid it. 9 Then they said one to another, We do not well: this day is a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, some mischief will come upon us: now therefore come, that we may go and tell the king’s household.

Second part of the this mornings lesson...

I want you to have this picture in your mind

Tell the story of the 4 lepers...

What spoil!

From the poorest to the riches with one walk of faith!

Time for our walk of faith!

Here is the problem!

We have become accustom to living with less!

After all, they were lepers!

Who are we to expect a miracle!

We are just a small church...

This is what we have been for years...

There was a what do we have to loose spirit on these guys that I pray on us!

What do we have to loose?

Let’s just throw caution to the wind the wind and charge hell with a water pistol.

The spoil belongs to us!

Colossians 2:15 KJV 1900

15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

It’s done, we have to active it and put down the any resistance that has risen since then!

1 Corinthians 15:25 KJV 1900

25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.

Luke 11:22 KJV 1900

22 But when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armour wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils.

2. We are taking this City!

Matthew 11:12 KJV 1900

12 And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.

Luke 16:16 KJV 1900

16 The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.

The churches duty is to press into the Kingdom of God

To establish the Kingdom of God by FORCE!

3. So how are we going to do this?

We have been working on this for years...

Phases of TLC

First: build relationship with each other and God

Second: reestablish doctrine

Third: Establish the Five Fold Ministry

This is the right hand of power

Forth: Establish the left hand of organization

God will only give us the harvest we are prepared to handle, otherwise we will waste the harvest!

What is the left hand?
