God’s Great Desire

Good evening and happy Sabbath to everyone.

It is a privilege to be here with you all and I'm thankful to God for the opportunity to talk with his people tonight.

There are some very important things that heaven desires to impart to our hearts.

It's gonna be imperative, brothers and sisters, that we truly pray as we hear God speak to us tonight.

Because I'm fully convinced that great things are happening in this world and it's all taking place to let us know that time is almost finished.

Everything we've ever studied about, everything we've ever done our seminars about, the things that we have done and demonstrated through the books of Daniel and Revelation, we are literally seeing them come to pass.

And I believe with all my heart that 1 of the great reasons why this crisis that the Bible speaks about has not taken place yet is because God in love and mercy is looking down upon his own people and he's saying they're not ready yet.

And brothers and sisters, the whole focus of everything that we should do should be to get ready.

We're gonna have some very serious discussions this weekend.

We're gonna come face to face with ourselves and with the Word of God And we want God to speak to our hearts.

And brothers and sisters, I'm telling you the truth.

I'm saying, Lord, do something in my own heart.

Get me ready for this final crisis, Father.

Help me to get ready for the second coming of Jesus Christ.

So I stand before you not as a superior man to you.

I stand before you as a man in need of Jesus just like you.

And so, brothers and sisters, as we prepare to go into tonight's topic, entering within the veil, As much as you're able to, I'm going to invite you to kneel with me as we approach God's throne in prayer.

Our Heavenly Father, we thank you, Lord, for the privilege and the opportunity to worship you on this your holy Sabbath day of rest.

We are grateful that you have given us power to keep holy every hour.

And Lord, this power that you have given to us, dear God, it is not by natural might nor by natural power, but it's by your Spirit that we can truly do all things through Christ who strengthens us.

Father we have sinned against you in word, thought, and deed.

Perhaps even as we were about to come into these doors there may have been things that have not been confessed.

And if so, please bring it to our remembrance even now, that we may confess it, forsake it, and overcome it by your grace.

Lord, do something special in these meetings.

Lord, we have meetings after meetings after meetings, and heaven is just still wondering, are they getting it?

Help us Father to cooperate with you as you speak to our hearts tonight.

Please take my life and let it be consecrated Lord to thee.

And may you open all of our eyes and help us to behold wondrous things from your word.

It's our prayer that we ask in Jesus' name.

You know, I was just on the phone with my wife.

I'm so thankful that I can honestly say without flinching that I love my bride.

And as she and I were talking, you know, as I was talking with her, I found myself nervous.

A lot of times people always say, Brother Lemon, do you get nervous before you speak?

Because brothers and sisters, I'm handling something that is more precious than gold.

Ministers of the gospel, when they preach the word of God, they are handling the most precious treasure that could ever be put into the hand of a man, the Word of God.

And it's imperative that the minister gives the people the Word as meat in due season.

I said, honey, I just need to talk to you.

And as we were talking and everything, I often do this when I travel and if I'm somewhere without my bride I always ask her, honey can you pray?

She of course agreed gladly and she prayed with me and I felt that peace of God.

And I found myself that when I got off the phone, I said, Lord, I long to see her face.

And God was impressing on my heart at that very moment to say, magnify what you feel times infinity.

God says I long to look my bride face to face.

You see when you go to the book of Genesis chapter 2 I want you to see something.

God longs to look at his bride face to face.

The Bible says in Genesis chapter 2, You're going to find that many of the scriptures that we will review are going to be that which you've heard before.

All we want to do is review it and receive it in our hearts that we may be transformed.

The Bible says in Genesis chapter 2, you know what it says in verse 7, God tenderly, while he was speaking everything else into existence when it came to the 1 whom he would deem to be his bride, God knew that it's going to take more than just speaking this into existence.

God says I need to get my hands into this.

The Bible says in Genesis chapter 2 in verse 7 it says, And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul.

This same being that God made, both from Adam and Eve, it is interesting how God eventually, as he was creating man with that great desire to commune with man, brothers and sisters, God made you because he needed you.

God made us for communion, not just to have a whole bunch of servants.

When God made us, his desire was to enjoy time with his creation.

The Bible says in verse 20 of that same chapter.

1 of his ribs and closed up the flesh instead thereof and the rib which the Lord God had taken from man made he a woman and brought her unto the man and Adam said this is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh she shall be called woman because she was taken out of man therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother and shall cleave unto his wife and they shall be 1 flesh and they were both naked the man and his wife and were not ashamed God was able to have face-to-face communion with his creation via Adam and Eve.

When God had this wonderful union come together, face-to-face communion, he was able to communicate.

There was no need for a medium, no need for burning bushes, no need for the minister giving the living word.

God was able to look his creation right in the face and have communion.

The great focus of Jesus is that he may have face-to-face communion with his bride.

But 1 day, you know the story, that face-to-face communion got disrupted, didn't it?

The Bible spells out how it happened in Genesis chapter 3.

The Bible says in Genesis chapter 3, verses 6 through 10, Eve finds herself talking with a snake.

And as she's talking and having this dialogue with this snake, eventually it says in verse 6, and when the woman saw that the tree was good for food and that it was pleasant to the eyes and a tree to be desired, to make 1 wise, she took of the fruit thereof and did eat and gave also unto her husband with her and he did eat.

And the eyes of them both were opened and they knew that they were naked and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves apron.

It says Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden and the Lord God called unto Adam and said unto him where art thou?

And he said I heard thy voice in the garden and I was afraid because I was naked and I hid myself.

It was right at this point that God in love and mercy, as much as he loved his bride.

Now that sin had entered into the picture, God now had to make a decision to say, either I can go ahead and be selfish and indulge in my emotions and just go ahead and behold you anyhow, but God knew, according to Hebrews 12, 29, that I'm a consuming fire.

And if sin is in my direct presence, it will be destroyed.

So therefore he had to oust them out of the garden.

And the face-to-face communion now had to be broken.

You see, brothers and sisters, there's only 1 thing.

It's amazing to me how we can talk about face-to-face, shall I behold them, in that beautiful hymn.

But brothers and sisters, we must understand that the only way, I want you to think about this, there's a man and there's a woman who are married and they and they love 1 another.

And as this husband and wife, they love 1 another and their family and they have children and everything.

They love each other, but then 1 day, 1 of those spouses who loved each other fell into adultery.

Here it is that that spouse now leaves home and they're going around with this third party and they're messing around thinking that they're having a wonderful time and they go ahead and get into the dirt of sin but lo and behold a time comes where all of a sudden that spouse realizes, you know what?

So then that spouse now comes back home to the other spouse and the children, knocks on the door and says, Listen, you know what?

I realize what I did, but you know what, I want to come back home.
