“I AM” Has Sent Me

The Great Deliverance

You know, 1 day, we will see just how mighty God really is.

And some of us will be rejoicing, and some of us, God forbid, some that any of us, will be running for the rocks and the mountains to hide us.

But if you think about it in the global context, day of judgment is coming.

God will pour out his wrath against sin and rebellion.

And we have a time of probation right now.

And it's a very, very important time for us to take God seriously, take his church seriously, and be about the Lord's business, amen?

You know, 1 of my favorite themes for sharing with the young people has been the exodus.

I mean, can you get tired of when we talk about God's mighty deeds and his acts?

You know, do you get tired of mashed potatoes and beans because you ate them last week?

So Don't let anybody say to God's word, oh, we've heard it before.

Oh, evangelistic series, we've heard it before, we've been through it before.

If you say that, you do not understand the purpose and power of the word of Almighty God.

See friends, being a Christian is not just taking the name of Jesus or going to church.

Is it not, It is not just taking the name of Jesus, it's not even just being baptized, it's not even just coming to church.

Being a Christian means that we live like Jesus.

What better thing could there be than for us to be absolutely, completely, totally dependent upon the Father?

Today is the fifth episode, and I guess I'll carry on, or I might start afresh at my new churches and so if you want to get the rest of the story you'll probably have to come over and listen in or something.

Let me just say before I begin, before I preach, let me say something.

You know, preachers get up and they say that.

I hope that you would be saying something while you're preaching.

But, you know, we have been here, the longest that we've stayed in any church has been in your church.

The longest that we as a family have been in any church is in your church, is in, in fact, you know what?

I've been here over 9 years, and it's gonna be very hard to uproot, you know, and go and establish ourselves somewhere else.

And if I haven't been to see you, just give me a text and I'll come and see you before I leave.

It's gonna be very hard to go, so I need your prayers.

We know and believe that God brought us here.

We know and believe that God brought the Ferrar's family here.

And I know and believe that God will bring the next pastor here and it will be what the church needs.

I don't believe in men manipulating and politics.

I believe that God brings people and God takes people.

And it will be, I pray, God's leading and I believe that.

And that's the only reason why I can go and accept it.

But because I believe God calls, I believe we should answer, amen.

And that's the reason why I emphasize this.

Do you know that nearly every book in the Bible makes reference to the Exodus, God's power in deliverance.

Do you realize that the Bible says that the story of the Exodus was written for our admonition and for our warning, especially for those of us that are alive at the coming or soon coming of Jesus Christ.

It's a story that is vitally relevant today.

It's a story that flies in the face of all the challenges that non-believers will throw at you and I.

This actually happened 3, 500 years ago as the Bible describes.

So friends, therefore it's telling us that there is no limit to what God can do for His people.

There is no limit to what God can do for His people.

There is no limit to what God can do for His people as we approach the borders of the heavenly Canaan.

We need the power of his Holy Spirit to understand His word.

And friends, we need to realize that Jesus is coming soon because that is the truth.

Now, I was on vacation around Christmas time, and there was a, by the way, I don't think I prayed, so Let me just bow my head here as we pray.

Father in heaven, we ask for your presence, for your spirit and for your power, and for your word to do its work, and that it would not return unto you void, that it would water our hearts, strengthen our hearts and minds, Lord, for your service.

And we thank you for hearing our prayer in Jesus' name.

Yeah, I didn't want that slide to come up just yet, but anyway, it's there now.

So, if my family here, you'll remember, remember we were on vacation, and there was a really nice maid that was cleaning our room and I felt impressed and I said, she's such a nice lady, she's been doing such a nice job for us, I'm going to give her this book.

And when she looked at it, she grabbed it and said, oh, Exodus, I'm just about gonna see the movie tonight.

And I said, This book will tell you the truth about the story.
