God is Faithful

Hebrews 6:13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,

14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.

15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.

To begin with Brothers and Sisters, Christian Friends, Well Wishers, and Saints of God as we redirect our minds in retrospect of the relationship we have with our God, it’s important, it’s significant, and it’s imperative that we look at God’s historical promises. Because if you know what God did in the pass, then you can get a clear idea of where your future possibilities are. My future is ahead of me and it’s bright because I can relate to what God did in the pass for the famous patriarch, Abraham.

God made a covenant with Abraham.

God then made a covenant with Isaac. And then

God made a covenant with Jacob and changed Jacob’s name to Israel.

God made a covenant with Moses and then

God made a covenant with Joshua.

God made covenants with the Judges. and then

God made covenants with the Kings of Israel. Kings like David, Solomon, Jehoshaphat and Josiah.

God made promises to biblical figures like Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habbakuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zachariah,and Malachi and Brothers and sister just like back then when God’s promises were a sure thing, well even more so today is God’s promises a sure thing .

Brothers and sisters when you know whose you are you can speak boldly and say “I’m in covenant with my God” and I expect that my God will supply all my needs according to His riches in glory.

God is Faithful

You’ll remember when Jesus had been preaching to the multitude for hours and the people had gotten hungry. And because of their faithfulness and attentiveness to the words of Jesus, God came through faithfully. Jesus took a little boy’s lunch with 2 fish and 5 loaves of bread and fed over 5 thousand men not counting the women and children. God is faithful.

Tell your neighbor: God is Faithful And how many people know that if you’ll patiently wait on the Lord He will come see about you

Scripture say that there was a woman that was bent over for 18 years, she had a vexing evil spirit in her and she couldn’t straighten up. She went to church faithfully and when Jesus saw her in the temple on the sabbath day and healed her. Her healing came because she had been so faithful in seeking God’s help. When we are faithful to God, God can not break His covenant promise. That’s why we can’t give up on God, We’ve got to keep on pressing toward mark for the prize of high calling of God.

We’ve got to speak life, think life and act positively toward our lives.

In the book of Mark in the 3rd chapter Jesus heals the man with the withered hand and the religious leaders tried to accuse him and Jesus was angry at the hardness of their hearts. Listen to me I don’t want God to be angry at me for having a hard heart towards people who need a healing. It’s got people that don’t want to see you get a healing, don’t want to see you get blessed, don’t want to see you excel, don’t want to see you move ahead in life. They don’t want to see you do None of that!!!! and it’s sad!!!

I know I’m right about it, and I’ve got biblical proof to back me up. The story goes that the prophet Jonah didn’t want to go to Nineveh because Nineveh was some kind of town. Long story short Jonah ended up being cast into the sea and God sent a big fish to swallowed Jonah whole. Jonah stayed in the belly of the whale 3 day symbolizing a type of Christ. Then God resurrected Jonah and the big fish put Jonah on the seashore. Jonah ran to Nineveh and preached repentance. The people repented, and said they were sorry for being sin sick. And Jonah hated that God gave them another chance. But God made a promise and God is faithful to honor his promise not matter who doesn’t like it even if its the preacher. Because in our theme text

The bible says in Hebrews 6:13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,

Listen when God makes a covenant, an oath, a declaration, or a contract with mankind God is faithful. And All God needs is His Own Name.

I need His name to have authority, for example when people say Rev Allen. The title Reverend is God’s authority not mine!! but God doesn’t need my name or your name to display or exhibit or demonstrate His authority, His Exousia, His Power. Because God is Sovereign. He can do what He wants when He wants How He wants and to whom ever He wants, because He is God Almighty. God can swear by His own name. Look at verse 14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee. The bible says that “The blessings of the Lord are sure and he adds no sorrow with it.” When God says for Sure I’ll bless you, then you can bank on it God will bless you.

Tell your neighbor: God wants to bless me and the devil can’t add no sorrow to my blessing”.

God is Faithful..3x You’ll remember in Matthew 8:5-6 when the centurion soldier came to Jesus and said Pastor Jesus please heal my servant because he lies at home gravely ill. Jesus said, Ok, Alright, I’ll come and heal him. The centurion soldier said no no no Lord please don’t you come to my house because they cut up too bad. But Lord if you Just speak a word I believe that my servant will be healed… Jesus said I’ve never seen so great faith no , not in all of Israel. Jesus spoke the word and the bible says the same self hour the servant of the centurion soldier was healed. God is Faithful. The centurion soldier was faithful in his belief that Jesus could perform a miracle on his servant. And his faith activated God’s faithfulness. Because Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen.

God is Faithful....And I remember saying Lord the doctor says that I have cancer and if I don’t get it out, that within 3 to 5 years I’ll be dead. Church, I didn’t want to die. And so I prayed Now Lord, if it be thy will please heal my body. Lord, I can’t preach sick, Lord I can’t produce with a weak and fragile body, Lord I can’t give you glory if I die before I preach your best sermon Lord. Lord please hear my prayer. And I remember lying flat on my back and couldn’t move and I heard God speak to me right down in my spirit man saying “Allen I will bless you while you produce for my kingdom”. I’ve got to tell it God is Faithful!!! And one month after surgery Roy and Mike and Willie and Mr Huey said don’t preach too hard and Something came over me and I got the can’t help its and God gave me a sort of supercharger on my life engine.

I said all of that to say this “If you are faithful to God you can ask for something in His will, and God according to His Covenant, His Law,His Commandment, and His will has to do it!!! Why does God have to do it? Because God is not a man that He should lie. If God said it! you can bank on it. Hebrews 6:14  Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.

How many people want God to bless you?

How many people want God to Multiply you?

Somebody’s going to start their own business and created employment for themselves and that’s a shouting moment.

Somebody have been waiting on that promotion at your job and got it or you about to get it and that’s a shouting moment.

Somebody has been believing God for a new car or a better car than you have and it’s on the way and that’s a shouting moment.

Somebody has been believing God for a new home and God is Faithful It’s on the way And that’s a shouting moment

Somebody need a healing and God showed up and showed out and showed off and things are looking better and it looks like you were going to pull through, and that’s a shouting moment.

Somebody have been praying for a break through with your family life and where confusion, hate and crazy was, and now Love, peace and harmony abides, and that’s a shouting moment.

God will bless you!!! And God will Multiply you!!! Think in your heart then speak it out of your mouth and then Shout it out of your Soul and watch God come through with Multiple Blessings. and then finally

verse 15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise. After Abraham had faithfully endured, Yeah yeah yeah in other words like Isaiah 30:18 says “And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you,And therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you:For the LORD is a God of judgment:Blessed are all they that wait for him”.

Sometimes saints we’ve got to faithfully endure some stuff. Sometimes we have to know that this is a process and when God comes through the blessing is going to be so good. Like Campbell's Soup um um good.. Your blessing is going to be so good Until nobody will be able to deny that it is the Mighty hand of the Lord that’s upon you Blessing you.

If you’ve been waiting on God to turn things in your community with Covid-19 and you see things getting better then that’s a shouting moment.

If you’ve been waiting on God to turn things around in your church and you see evidence that God is moving then that’s a shouting moment.

The bible says in Isaiah 30:18  And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you, And therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: For the LORD is a God of judgment:Blessed are all they that wait for him.

Blessed are they that wait for the Lord… There’s a blessing in waiting on the Lord. because 2 Chronicles 7:14 says If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Well I’ve held you’ll long enough and as I leave you here today um um Yes God is Faithful. Because there was a time when Three Angels came down to planet earth to visit Abraham Um Um m

And the Angel said Abraham you and Sarah are going to have a baby Oh Lord

And Sarah was secretly listening to the Angel And The Lord told Abraham . Abraham you tell Sarah I saw her laugh at Me about her having a baby. Um Um Sarah was 90 years old and Abraham was 99 Oh Lord Sometimes you just have to wait on God. Because God is Faithful and Abraham patiently endured and the bible says Abraham recieved the promise.

I’m so glad that God he may not come when you want Him but He’s Always on time. Ain’t God Alright! Won’t He do it. Won’t He make a way out of no way Won’t God open doors that been closed in your face. Oh yes He will Yes He Will Thank You Jesus for Blessing me. Thank You Jesus for being so good to me. Have He been good to you? Have He really been good? If the Lord been good to you stand up and tell your neighbor God been Good!!!! God’s been Good God’s been Good. Have He been Good to you/ If He’s been good Let me hear you Say Yeah! Say Yeah! Say Yeah!!! Oh Lord. Thank You Jesus!
