Fully Persuaded
I am Apostle Miracle Pettenger, and I bless God for this day. Hallelujah. Amen. Of the title of the message today is fully persuaded fully persuaded. Don't move your confidence outside of God. So this message is for every believer whose confidence is in God and there's going to be a situation circumstances of people saying things, all these different things going on in a route around us and oftentimes the enemy may try to bring it to us to make us feel as if we are. We should be ashamed of the Gospel or that to try to persuade us to go a different way, but you have to be fully persuaded in your salvation, fully persuaded in your relationship with God, knowing that whatever he has promised, he will do, he is faithful to do his faithful to keep you all. So you need to be fully persuaded. Who you are. And I so that when these spirits and people out of foolishness and ignorance, say certain things. It doesn't move you out of your place and it doesn't challenge your identity. They're going to charge you challenge, but guess what? You don't have to yell accept the challenge. There's nothing to tell it just let me know question because it is what it is. Often times over there is a saying about how often do people say I said what I said, you can't change it. That's it. We have to be fully persuaded in whatever Endeavor thing. God has said about us, God has done for us. The things that we know he will do for us as we stay in right standing with the authority of God. Hallelujah. So let's understand. What does persuade mean. Persuade means cause someone to believe something, especially after a sustained effort to convince. Someone sometimes not just some type of all the time. We know with the fall of Adam and Eve Humanity, literally chose to step outside of the security and the presence of the Lord. But even with that, we know Christ came to give us the opportunity to come back. But because we were born in that sinful State because we were born in that in our innate Human Nature, has to be convinced to step back in to go back in. There has to be something. And guess what God gave us some effort has something to show us that we were worth saving, Hallelujah. And it also means the same definition of a situation or event provide a sound reason for someone to do something. I have a sound reason why I should trust God. That I should do things on my own. That I should not yield to somebody else's opinion or somebody else's snide. Remark. I should not allow those things to influence. We're going to call them purpose me to do what my holy nature is to do all of a sudden. I'm not going to do what my whole nature is to do because somebody said something because somebody challenge me. That's when we need to make sure we are fully persuaded and just when everything is going good. I guarantee you. That's what he said. He's going to try the last book in the word of God, Look at Romans chapter 4, talking about the faith of Abraham. And in the New Living Translation says Abraham was humanly speaking. The founder of our Jewish Nation. What did he discover about being made right with God, is being in right standing in the authority of God. We know that even as Gentiles as we are grafted in as New Testament, Believers, we are grafted into the body of Christ, because to the name and the blood of Jesus, we are now two in, right standing. God sent his son, not only for the Jews but also for the Gentile, Hallelujah, and so, what is it? We need to do to be fully persuaded to come. Into the kingdom to stay in, right standing in his example says birth to. If his Good Deeds had made him acceptable to God, he would have had something to boast about but that was not God's way. No matter is what you do. It's not going to work because you're not saved by your own worse. That's not going to get it in. First thing for the scriptures. Tell us a ham, believe God, and God counted him as righteousness because of his faith. No matter how you feel. Your feelings are not going to save. You are not going to justify you, your feelings are not going to make you in right standing with God. It. What is it that you choose to believe? Where is your faith? Even when you feel low and down? If your faith is still in God, guess what God has made you write just got a little favor. He is still healer. He is still a mighty counselor, a wonderful counselor, Mighty. God even answer saying the words are so he is a mind regulator Hallelujah. When people work their wages are not a gift, but something that they have earned. But people are counted as righteous not because of their work, but because of their faith in God who forgives, sinners. You're counted righteous. Not because you did everything right? Every single time. but because you've accepted, The work of the Cross because your face is in the work of cross that. Did through his son Jesus Christ. It was not up our own. David also spoke of this when he described the happiness of those who are declared righteous without working for it. Oh, what joy for those who disobey dance is Forgiven? Who sings are put out of style? Thank you, Lord. Hallelujah. Yes, what joy for those who sit whose record the Lord has to be cleared of sin, but God pleaser record. Why? Because he doesn't see that. That's why we need to repent daily. The only repairs but receives a cleansing blood of Jesus Christ and turn turn that you're repenting of the same thing over and over. Getting a guess, what? You haven't really pretended. He hadn't really turned because there should be change the strippy change. Hallelujah, weather with our health, with our family with a relationship again, even the comments and remarks on social media or even our community people, that we relationship that we formed with those around us. Don't act like any of those things that are said out of ignorance. Don't let any of those things that the enemy is using a person to say. Convince you otherwise of who you are. And God, don't let it change your character. Don't let it change your nature. And I'm talking about when your nature is out of God. Amen! Hallelujah. Because you've been clear out here, what you did before. Guess. What? Who are you now? First nine. Now. Is this blessing only for the Jews or is it also for uncircumcised Gentiles? Well, we have been saying that Abraham was counted as righteous by God because of his face, but how did this happen once he counted as righteous only after he was circumcised? Or was it before he was circumcised? Clearly got accepted Abraham before he was circumcised before Abraham opportunity. To do it by the law. Got accepted him. And nothing else has an examples that you don't have to wait to get yourself right? In order to Come As You Are? Broken. Missing pieces, not quite all together quite yet. God wants that, because that's when he can take those broken pieces and make a masterpiece, and you keep trying to Fumble with these broken pieces. Guess what? You end up cutting yourself. You put your fingers together because God is the one who can put it all together the right way.
Circumcision with a sign that Abraham already had faith and that God has already accepted him and declare him to be righteous even before he was circumcised. So, Abraham is a sphere and a ball during those who have faith but have not been circumcised. I guess what, I'm a part of the Seed of Abraham, we sing the song is children's, many sons had Father, Abraham. I am one of them and so are you? So let's just praise the Lord. Guess what? So not heard from me to gender, but referring to sonship Authority, your position to be an heir to the kingdom, is about your inheritance as a kingdom citizen. You have a right to claim it. Nothing is the qualifying you as long as you do. Your face is in God and you are fully persuaded to stay there. Hallelujah.
So because of your face at Abraham is also the spiritual father, those who have been circumcised. But only if they had the same kind of face Abraham had before he was circumcised, religious people all the Sundays as long as I get my money. As long as I show up when I least to you, as long as my name is on the roll. That's all that matters. Know. It's more to it's more to it. Are you in a truck? Got so much. You won't give up your own child to him. What are you willing to commit? Your child into the hands of God? Not knowing what's to come? Regardless of the outcome knowing that God has a plan for you. That is good and not evil to bring you a future and a hope and expect it in the guns. Not trying to play you. He's not trying to torment you. Please. Not trying to harm you or manipulate you. How do we know that? Because we know our God is faithful all those things that's nature of deception and manipulation. That is all done. Devil. Hallelujah. God or the devil is a liar and the father of all on his agenda is to make a counterfeit Kingdom of his of God. Cuz he wants, he wants to be adored. So, as we uncovered up, I recognize the truth of God's word and stayed for God has truly planted as in him. So I keep my mind in perfect. Peace, as I keep my mind stayed on Jesus Christ and his word. I am fully persuaded that. My piece, my sanity is in God in his word. Hallelujah. No matter how many titles, how many degrees of my face is not there. Just what? I won't be counted. I can't claim that inheritance. I just qualify myself clearly God's promise to give the whole earth to Abraham. And his descendants was based not on his obedience to God's law cuz member is exquisite. But on the right relationship with God, that comes by thing, if God's promise and only for those who obey the law than face is not necessary and the promise is pointless for the law. Also always brings punishment on those who try to evade. The only way to avoid breaking, the law is to have no law to break. So the promise is received by faith. It is given as a free gift and we are and we are Started to receive it and whether or not we live according to the law of Moses. If we have faith like Abraham for Abraham is a bottle of all, who believe when you have fake Noah's New Testament, leavers? Because we have faith in God that much and faith in his son and what the blood of Jesus has done for us. If our face is really that strong, if we are really fully persuaded. Guess what? We also have faith to receive the instructions that God has given us the power of His. Holy spirit. We have faith also to obey them. To be fully prepared to obey them. Not to challenge. Such a question, not to still do our own thing because faith without works is dead. So, if I truly have faith, guess what? I'm going to demonstrate my face through obedience, and if I thought I have an advocate but my general day-to-day living my general day. Today, agenda is a secret, the kingdom of God and his righteousness.
Sinners are those the middle lifestylist and they wake up there. First thing on their mind. And how many ways can I send today? Even if it is out there, so I put that way, but they're thinking about everything else but God, and what can we do? That's going to gratify their own flesh and not as a sacrifice unto God and give him that. He is faithful to a ward. Those who diligently seek him.
17 sentence. That is what the scriptures mean. When God told him I have made you the father of many nations. This happens because Abraham believed in the God who brings the dead back to life, and who creates new things out of nothing. The kind of God, we serve. He is able to do that, which I cannot do. What is impossible for man is more than possible with God. I can ask, or think according to His holy power at work in me and His holy power cannot be at work in meeting. If I do not have faith caught up. I see that. We think you even when there was no reason for Hope, how many times have you been a hopeless situation? Believing that she would become a father medication for God has said to him. That's how many descendants you will have. And Abraham's Faith did not weekend. Even though I'm about 100 years of age. He figured his body as good as dead. And so was Sarah's room. Guess what? He figured. Abraham Compton, this decision and conclusion in his own mind. His card on my about his natural body, but guess what? When you were spiritually minded, no way that God is able to do exceedingly abundantly and that, you serve a supernatural God. And that gets what he created this Natural Body. Can do whatever he wants with. It. Went Wherever Whenever However, he chooses to follow those who believe God of Abraham and believe in God's promise. In fact his face grew stronger and this brought glory to God glory and see the manifestation of God's glory. Keep believing God, with your face grow. Stronger colors are fake. Grow stronger. How does it increase by tearing the word of God? Receiving the word of God? Meditating on the word of God in his promises spending time in his presence. Remind God of his word, not because he forgot, but guess what? It edifies your body. And if I was your scariest, it build up your spirit, man. 21. He was fully convinced that God is able to do whatever he promises do. You believe God is able to do it all alone. He is able to do it all. The promises of God are yea and amen. What is concerning healing in your body? What? It's concerning peace and comfort in your mind. Don't you think I can clear out every single day before you can quiet with the confusion, and because of Abraham's face, I counted him as righteous. And when God it wasn't just for Abraham benefit, it was recorded for our benefit to assuring us. That God will always count us as righteous as if we believe in him. The one who raised, Jesus, our lord from the Dead, come on. He was handed over to die because of our sins and he was raised to life to make us right with God. How did it for Abraham before Jesus? How much more now that Jesus has come?
Regardless of our economic system, the political environment, environment naturally, kindness and different things. Your neighborhoods were gone with those things that are going on wherever you are and it, whatever time, it may occur, God is able Don't let your faith waiver. Don't let your faith waiver and the Hallelujah. So he is able to do these things. And also I wanted to bring out before I go into 2nd, Timothy chapter 10. I wanted to just remind you that with all of this, we see that God is most, everyone is to make sure that we are fully fully persuaded. And that verse 21 that we saw helped Abraham. He was fully convinced that God was able to do whatever he promises in the King James version. That says I'm being fully persuaded what he had promised. He was able to perform the what has God promised you? He's promised every believer because it is a benefit of the Kingdom. Healing Prosperity provision, good health.
All those things, not only naturally and physically, but even spiritually, even in your emotion. Are you fully persuaded that whatever God has promised in his word? You can find it in the book. Look at the contract. Look at the Covenant, He's got his name, but he will protect you and keep you that nothing shall by any means harm you, no matter how many gold. God, God will not send her guess what God will fulfill everything. And we're not going to stagger in our belief to doubt. God's ability to complete his promise. He is a faithful guy that he is able to perform, he will before he performed it. 2nd Timothy 1 and purses 3214 reminders again. I thank God. Whom I serve with a pure conscience as my forefathers did, as without ceasing. I remember you in my prayers night and a great lie that I that I may be filled with joy. When I recalled remembrance, the genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother, Lois and your mother Eunice and I am persuaded is in. You also your face and sometimes we have to be reminded. Guess what? Our life is a testimony. You are a walking Epistle of a Letter Bible, read by men. What does your Bible say? Does it reflect the word in the will and the character in the nature of God? Even in the tough times, even when it doesn't seem like it's going, alright, but guess, what is your face still strong there? Knowing that God is still able to do it sometimes, before you get to the end of the chapter and you see the miraculous healing to get stuck in the middle by Joe Jackson. What you got to be fully persuaded in your face. It doesn't require you to have a bunch of money. It doesn't require you to have a lot of possession, but your face can still be rich and strong.
Therefore, I remind you, come on. I'll remind you came to believe, it's on my mind. You just start up the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of hands. For God, has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power love and a sound mind.
Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of Our Lord, nor of me is Prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for The Gospel According to the power of God who has saved us and called us with a holy called, not according to our works. But according to his own purpose and gray, which was given to us in Christ Jesus Before Time began. But has now been revealed by the appearing of Our Savior, Jesus Christ, who has abolished death and brought life and immortality to life through the gospel. To which I am with a pointed, a preacher and Apostle and a teacher of the Gentiles sometimes even as tall as writing the letter to I forgot the letter to Timothy and sometimes even as Believers in the gospel as Brothers and Sisters in Christ, we get discouraged. Am I still doing? Well. Call me to do. Just don't look quite right. It's been so long. I haven't seen any changes. It looks like we're leaving off worse. That we know when first started and different things like that nature, but guess what? Don't give up now. Be fully. Persuaded. God does things with purpose. There's a reason I remember there was a word. I was going through my nose and god-given proceeding work, earlier this year, that this will be a year of transition, a year of shaking. Go to the shake, the tree song. And what that guess, what does that which remains? Hallelujah. The Godsey? That what she has planted some to come in for a season to get what they need and God sends them out. Because when there's also summer Gods will allow them to come to cease to give me the opportunity to change. And if they choose to change, Praise Jesus, if not, I guess what God will take care of it. But with all these things, I want you to remember do not be ashamed of the Gospel. You're still fully persuade, be fully persuaded in the assignment. God has called you to do your assignments, may change but the calling on your life Remains the Same. Just ask a physician is a license to be a doctor. Write in a certain State, their license to be a doctor. They met at work at different hospital, but they're still a doctor. That's their profession. So you have to stay true to your profile, your proclamation of Faith, your profession of Faith walking in it, working it every single day. And even, as Ministers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, I got his appointed you, whatever that is remain faithful to it. And and Lucas on the same for 12 for this reason. I also suffer these things. Nevertheless. I am not ashamed. I am not ashamed for I know, for, I know whom I have believed. I know in whom I believed and and persuaded that he will keep his able to keep his able to keep what I have committed to him until that day. What have you committed unto God? Have you committed your family into him? Have you committed, your husband, your husband, your wife, your children, your family, your job to clear your very Life Doll. Your very being, have you committed your mind that you God is your daddy just really exist in his pants. That does most moment flustered shifting with every wind and wave of Doctrine. But God is able to keep them, preserve it until the day that he comes back. And guess what? You're now being a glorified body or have to worry about that no more. Hallelujah. Thank you. Jesus. And that's why we need to be loyal to the face. 4:13 says hold fast. The pattern of sound Words, which you have heard from me in faith and love which are in Christ Jesus. That good thing which was committed to you Keith by the Holy Spirit who dwells in God wants you to know that when he called you, he equipped you. And as a Believer at the Kingdom citizen, he has given you every single thing that you need and he is also teaching you who he has created you to be who you are your identity. so now it is, your responsibility is your job to activate your face to demonstrate your face through obedience by growing, and also developing it to the point where no matter what is said, whether you hear them, say it or don't, No matter what you see. You will not allow these outside distractions situations, things that happen. So close to you to move you out of your position and God.
Well, I have to do this will have to do that. What happened in? This is not about what you do or do not do it, is about your faith in God because your faith will produce works, that will be a demonstration of your face if your faith is strong in him. Guess what? There will be a demonstration of it and you will be able to see it. And God will see you too and he will reward. That's what he's looking for. Because if you give him your heart, if you give him your mind, guess what? He will strengthen you with everything else, you need to do everything else. Hallelujah. So long as I give him a heart, I give him my mind. Guess what? I'm transforming my mom. Guess what? That's going to take over the actions of a will and a double strength in my body whole, Hallelujah. To carry out. The will of God concerning me concerning my family, concerning Ministry, concerning education. Is there any career? Hallelujah? All the things. So I am fully persuaded. I am fully persuaded. The guess what? Neither death nor life, nor angels, nor rulers nor things present, nor things, present, or things to come nor powers nor height nor depth nor anything else in all creation. None of it can separate me from the love of God, that is in Christ. Jesus, our lord. I pray that you what you to remain, fully persuaded. Don't let anything separate you. Not any word. Not any diagnosis, not any report called on us and not any comment. Don't let it change your character. Don't let it change who you are. It's called a purpose you to do. Don't let it change your manner of behavior or your lifestyle, especially when it matches up to Christ. Don't let it change all door phase. You And she this name caught up.
