Speaker 3: Go to are One's eve before we take our seats.
Speaker 3: Let's go.
Speaker 4: Let's book of the Law, shall or depart out of
Speaker 4: my mouth, that I shall meditate in it.
Speaker 5: To day right that I may observe to do according
Speaker 5: to all that is written in it.
Speaker 3: Well, then I will make.
Speaker 4: My way prospers, and then I am half of success
Speaker 4: a man.
Speaker 5: God bless you. Why don't you take your seats on?
Speaker 5: Continue with her this courses how best we can bring
Speaker 5: order into our conversations.
Speaker 4: Amen, let's go to James James Chapter three, best two
Speaker 4: and James is Jesus is genia brother. James is apostle
Speaker 4: James one who wrote this, like Jesus is genial brother.
Speaker 4: Say mother, But when Jesus was alive, he wasn't one
Speaker 4: of his disciples because they even doubted him until he
Speaker 4: rose again and then he became part of the disciple.
Speaker 4: Now listen to him talk about the town. There's two
Speaker 4: let's pick it from verse two. He say, for we
Speaker 4: all stumble in many ways. We all turn to someoneyre
Speaker 4: and say we all we all? You just say we
Speaker 4: are you see, we have to admit that there's a problem.
Speaker 4: There is a problem with us. You, yeah, everybody. And
Speaker 4: Pastor said this. I didn't like. We saw all of us,
Speaker 4: all of us, And in our conversation we got accused
Speaker 4: because sometimes let me let me past that pastor will rebuke.
Speaker 4: Oh why the pastor rebuked me? You know past that
Speaker 4: it's my my story. That pastor used it. We used
Speaker 4: living people's stories. Say amen, we can't use that people's story.
Speaker 4: So then that I don't have my own story. Then
Speaker 4: I borrow from Amanda from one of the conversations is
Speaker 4: me having with me there I borrow from there? Amen,
Speaker 4: and then go want to me if I mentioned that,
Speaker 4: Oh it was Amanda, It's ah no, I'm confiding you again.
Speaker 4: Hell do he? So we all stumble in many ways,
Speaker 4: and even anyone does not stumble in what he says.
Speaker 4: He's a perfect man. But we know there's no one
Speaker 4: that is perfect. We are all asked. Fine, Jesus said,
Speaker 4: be perfect, for I am perfect. Its the same. So
Speaker 4: you see the standards that God has for you and
Speaker 4: I are children of God. It is nothing short of
Speaker 4: his email or nature. He said, I am holy, be
Speaker 4: he only I am perfect? Be he perfect. But Jensy
Speaker 4: is saying as that, look you and I is talking
Speaker 4: to the church. There's a problem in church. Why because
Speaker 4: we are ongoing repair work. So all that in his
Speaker 4: wants is to cooperate with only spirit. And that's why
Speaker 4: I said, and begin, Look what we are doing is
Speaker 4: a spiritual our work. We have not gothered or God
Speaker 4: has not brought us together. We are not like any
Speaker 4: other organization. No. Why the difference is the presence of
Speaker 4: God Almighty in our mess, in our hearts, and in
Speaker 4: our mess. It's a spiritu our organization. Hallelujah. Amen, that's
Speaker 4: the difference. Anyone does not stumbling what he sees. He's
Speaker 4: a perfect man, able also to do or bridle his
Speaker 4: own body. Hallelujah. He may. Now, let's look at three.
Speaker 4: He says, what we have been able to do? Man?
Speaker 4: He said, indeed, we put bits in horse's mouths that
Speaker 4: they may obey us, and we tend their whole body
Speaker 4: around more or less. If you look at it very well,
Speaker 4: he said, indeed, we put bits in horse's mouths that
Speaker 4: they may obey more. It's talking about the ability or
Speaker 4: the ingenuity of human beings to be able to subdue everything.
Speaker 4: And God gave us that power in Genesis one. That's
Speaker 4: twenty six, twenty seven, twenty eight during the creation story. Amen,
Speaker 4: he said, let us create man what in our image
Speaker 4: and in our likeness, and then let us put him
Speaker 4: in charge to supperintend the rest of the creation. And
Speaker 4: when he was blessing other men, even in verse twenty
Speaker 4: eighties that work increase, multiply, subdual. There So it is
Speaker 4: no doubt that we have been able to accomplish a
Speaker 4: lot of things, subdue a lot of things. We can
Speaker 4: cause the horse to match, during match Independence Days and Paris,
Speaker 4: and do all kinds of things by using our God
Speaker 4: giving if you like, intelligence and power to subdue. Amen.
Speaker 4: And by extension, James is trying to point out that
Speaker 4: the tongue can equally what be turged. You can't tell
Speaker 4: your tongue. You can't change the way you talk. God
Speaker 4: is not going to do it for you. You have
Speaker 4: to do it. Amen. He has brought in the resources
Speaker 4: and they are all on site by the presence of
Speaker 4: the Holy Spirit. It brings every resource that we need
Speaker 4: to put off the old man and to put on
Speaker 4: the new man. And he expects you to do it. Amen.
Speaker 4: Change the way you talk to your husband, change the
Speaker 4: way you talk to your children, tange the way you
Speaker 4: talk to your parents, change the way you talk to
Speaker 4: your boss. Hallelujah. Amen. And hop that club promos for God.
Speaker 4: Then let's give her God another hour because I believe
Speaker 4: it is God that is speaking to us. Hallelujah. Amen.
Speaker 4: We are image bearers of God. And wherever are we
Speaker 4: going to say is that lays your speech with soul?
Speaker 4: Let him be fragrant. Hallelujah Amen. The Holy Spirit he
Speaker 4: can achieve very little in us if we don't allow
Speaker 4: him to read in our tongues. That's what he said.
Speaker 4: He said, we've been able to do it for the horses,
Speaker 4: can't we just paused and do it for ourselves and
Speaker 4: pulling our tongue, pulling our thoughts, pulling our words. Helen Louiah,
Speaker 4: I mean that's how I learn. That's how I learn.
Speaker 4: When I gave my life to Jesus Christ and everything,
Speaker 4: then I, as we've always said it, you know where
Speaker 4: you are going on To get there, you start spiritual journalist.
Speaker 4: Your quiet time, God will teach you things and God
Speaker 4: wants you to take notes. Amen, have a spiritual agennal. Amen.
Speaker 4: These days you can't use your book that's all your food,
Speaker 4: the notes column document or if you have the paper
Speaker 4: Bible or even the highlights, all of them, all even
Speaker 4: the electronics, they have pages for notes and things. When
Speaker 4: the Holy Spirit is teaching you that we are students,
Speaker 4: students the School of the Spirit. We are students. There
Speaker 4: documented what is saying and then you learn it's a
Speaker 4: learning thing. It's not automatic. Hallne lujah. So you start
Speaker 4: journaling the thing that God is teaching you and then
Speaker 4: you do them. It's as simple as that. So as
Speaker 4: you are doing it and all those things, you realize that, hey,
Speaker 4: maybe in those days it was if you like, I
Speaker 4: think maybe when he was talking. This day, you are,
Speaker 4: you are, you are typing, you're you're writing the texts,
Speaker 4: you're responding to a text major that what's that message?
Speaker 4: And then you're doing you're doing it, and then you
Speaker 4: put some words and then immediately your heart is arrested.
Speaker 4: Change it would rather fun conflict. It's a blessard and
Speaker 4: the peace make it. But they shall be the sons
Speaker 4: of God. Then he said, no, legally, this one. It
Speaker 4: won't bite him, it won't cut him a hair. I
Speaker 4: need to let her put her in her place. She
Speaker 4: needs to know that. But you know, you know the
Speaker 4: power behind the worst, and you know that just changing
Speaker 4: just one word, doing that sentence will bring the whole
Speaker 4: tempo of the conversation down. That is raining, He said,
Speaker 4: even the horses we have been able to do that.
Speaker 4: And the Holy Spirit will help you do that, and
Speaker 4: you have to The only spirit is say, okay, Holy Spirit,
Speaker 4: if you don't want me to use the word, then
Speaker 4: by the time I open my eyes, let the word
Speaker 4: vanny from my text. It won't vanish or when I
Speaker 4: press it, it shouldn't go the empty m. People should
Speaker 4: block it and say that your message has not been delivered.
Speaker 4: It won't go. Amen. Now look at verse four. Is
Speaker 4: I look at the ships also? They are so large
Speaker 4: and are driven by strong wings. They are guided by
Speaker 4: a very small Rather wherever the will of the pilot direct,
Speaker 4: the will of the pilot directs the will. God has
Speaker 4: given us a will that he is not going to subvert. Amen.
Speaker 4: God doesn't want us to be zombies. He made us
Speaker 4: intelligent beings. He gave us over two billion brain cells
Speaker 4: so he can reason, so he can dialogue with that.
Speaker 4: That is where conversations comes in. Conversations are so crucial.
Speaker 4: Without conversation, there will be no community. Amen, there will
Speaker 4: be no interaction. But God created this world so we
Speaker 4: could interact with him number one and number two with
Speaker 4: our fellow men. God's chart to add and wants to
Speaker 4: increase multiply without that spirit of rebellion seeping a Just
Speaker 4: imagine colonies of men all over. God's a big universe.
Speaker 4: We're all living in peace, which is indeed what he
Speaker 4: says he has promised he will do in the new
Speaker 4: having an Earth project where there will be no more saying,
Speaker 4: no more pain, no more sorrow, no more parallel. Amen.
Speaker 4: Why those who have qualified, he said, He will give
Speaker 4: us a good heart. And that good heart, say that
Speaker 4: will not be there. Nothing can change the heart so
Speaker 4: that the original blueprint of creation won't come to pass.
Speaker 4: But for now the damage is substantial, and I require
Speaker 4: you to help so we can fix you. So in
Speaker 4: all the admonitions to the Colossian check he said the
Speaker 4: same thing today. Efficient he said, Look, guys, you need
Speaker 4: to put off, put it off, put off the old man,
Speaker 4: and put on the new man, which is made just
Speaker 4: like God. Amen. So it said, Look at the sheets.
Speaker 4: Although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds,
Speaker 4: they are tended by a very small rader. Wherever the
Speaker 4: pilot decides the pilot desires. There can't be anything like
Speaker 4: slip off tone. Yes, one slip of tone, But the
Speaker 4: next time, hey, you order your tongue to hold the tongue.
Speaker 4: That's what he's saying. And the power, the power, the.
Speaker 6: Holy Spirit, the power and the spirit will give you
Speaker 6: the courage to do that.
Speaker 4: You say, sometimes we do all this because we don't
Speaker 4: want to lose lose faith. The believer or the bonn again,
Speaker 4: the truly see a bonne again person. You have no reputation.
Speaker 4: If you don't get this thing right, you're not going
Speaker 4: to get fired with God. You want to work with
Speaker 4: God with your reputation? No, he said, look at me.
Speaker 4: He was prepared to come down and have his reputation damage.
Speaker 4: What didn't they call him? Why didn't they call him? Amen?
Speaker 4: They gave him all kinds of names, and it was
Speaker 4: yes or not true. But he never protested. And he
Speaker 4: said that the serbants cannot be greater than the Master
Speaker 4: if they insult And he said, they will insult you.
Speaker 4: If they damn made my reputation, they'll damnate your reputation.
Speaker 4: What your what kind of reputation is that that you
Speaker 4: are clinging soul? Halen Loujah? Amen? So and so it's
Speaker 4: it's it's these are the basic principles of the Christian life.
Speaker 4: You don't have a reputation, Amen. Amen, we are the
Speaker 4: criminals that he died for us. No, you're a criminal.
Speaker 4: We are a criminal towards the reputation that you that
Speaker 4: is already damaged. So when they crucify you by giving
Speaker 4: all you say, it's true, but make sure it's not
Speaker 4: true that all as for the rumors and things, and
Speaker 4: and I mean taking you from granted, that is the
Speaker 4: lot of all believers, say amen to that. That's five.
Speaker 4: It's also the tongue is a small member, yet it
Speaker 4: boasts of great things. How great a forest is set
Speaker 4: ablaze by such a small fire. So James is warning
Speaker 4: us yet not to the estimate the effects of our
Speaker 4: words or conversations. Wars has been sparked by a few
Speaker 4: careless or selfish words in the whole, in the community,
Speaker 4: on the global state, wor's what's boom? And yes, that
Speaker 4: always tells you that there's a certain spirit that is
Speaker 4: behind if you understand the nature of the cosmic world
Speaker 4: that God has told us is ongoing between the Kingdom
Speaker 4: of God and then the kingdom of darkness and for you,
Speaker 4: and now he says he has Satans and he has
Speaker 4: translated us out of Satan's domain of darkness into the
Speaker 4: kingdom of his beloved Son, where it is light. And
Speaker 4: that is why God wants us to rain in and
Speaker 4: bring order to our conversations. We want to showcase the
Speaker 4: nature of God. The fruit of the Holy spits all
Speaker 4: of our peace Amen. So the opposite was just a
Speaker 4: few peaceful words. It will brook thoughtful. A few thoughtful
Speaker 4: words brings up our peace, isn't it. Hallelujah? Amen. So
Speaker 4: conversations are great in gold, in society and communities together, hallnelujah.
Speaker 4: And I believe that's what God has got the check
Speaker 4: together to be doing, and we just need to be
Speaker 4: a bit more careful and intentional in doing it so
Speaker 4: we can defeat the devil. The last place where there
Speaker 4: should be quious and fights and things is in check.
Speaker 4: Say amen. But sometimes what we see in our congregations amen,
Speaker 4: fire for fire and then yeah, I first you hear
Speaker 4: some of the things and then it's like ah for me.
Speaker 4: That's why we always talk about this bonne against you.
Speaker 4: It's not your photo that that that that that the
Speaker 4: foundation is wrong. You don't even know where we are going.
Speaker 4: And that's why sometimes we don't want to preach, preach,
Speaker 4: you know, sweet latable messages and get people here that
Speaker 4: the destination is in heaven and God has felt out
Speaker 4: clearly in this way where we are going. And then
Speaker 4: the qualifications and conditions not are needed to get Amen, hallelujah.
Speaker 4: And the Bible is so so replete with so much
Speaker 4: warnings that sometimes they are red check not d chet bo.
Speaker 4: I don't understand why you think that that one is
Speaker 4: not it's not applicable, but binding and losing is applicable.
Speaker 4: That's why we are binding and we are losing. Nothing
Speaker 4: is happening. You still go to bed and you can't sleep,
Speaker 4: tormented day and night, all kinds of dreams. Look the
Speaker 4: Holy Spirit that mea have come to know, not the
Speaker 4: apostles talk about. He is a tough customer. They won't
Speaker 4: allow you to be fighting all over the place. The
Speaker 4: Holy Spirit will give you a license. Else when you
Speaker 4: come here, I'll also be fighting. Hallelujah. He won't give
Speaker 4: you that license at all. You will lose your piece.
Speaker 4: You look you when you sleep, you sleep one hour
Speaker 4: while there you wake you up, and then you first
Speaker 4: and sleep again. Then the dream and then the nightmare
Speaker 4: will come. And you know when you wake up from
Speaker 4: the dream, you know that is because of this thing.
Speaker 4: H What I said to that brother, what I said
Speaker 4: to that sister, What I said, Then you will tell
Speaker 4: you you aid, you apologize, call that person you have
Speaker 4: acquire with somebody, These things that when you come to
Speaker 4: pray and you. He reminds you, Sonta. You say you
Speaker 4: here will remind you. You will not forget it. And
Speaker 4: he said, call that person. Call you want peace, Yes, call,
Speaker 4: just be gracious with the words. I'm sorry. I add blessed,
Speaker 4: and the peacemakers for this shall be called the sons
Speaker 4: of God, the six and and the tongue is a fire,
Speaker 4: a world of iniquity. And he's talking. When he's talked
Speaker 4: about it, he's talking about a conversation. The words that
Speaker 4: comes out of our mouths in our conversation, that's what
Speaker 4: he's talking about. So not the literal and atomical tongue.
Speaker 4: He said, the tongue is so set among our members
Speaker 4: that it defiles the whole body and sets on fire
Speaker 4: the cause of nature. And it is set on fire
Speaker 4: by hell. More like say that the tongue like a fire.
Speaker 4: It can either be put to good use and become
Speaker 4: a good saver or a bad master. It can be
Speaker 4: used for destruction of a construction. That's what he's trying
Speaker 4: to say. The term our conversations. You can build, you
Speaker 4: can build people, you can build your home, you can
Speaker 4: build a church. With the right kind of conversations, hallelujah.
Speaker 4: All destroy it by the wrong kind of conversation. So
Speaker 4: when you are in church and people are quiring, and
Speaker 4: people are fighting, and people are gossipping back biting, then
Speaker 4: the Bible pol said, it is said you will destroy yourselves.
Speaker 4: You will destroy yourself. Go can't help you. You will
Speaker 4: destroy yourself. So for me as a past and as
Speaker 4: the leader, I said that, hey, hallelujah, you all die
Speaker 4: your footsteps, so you are that your tongues and conversation,
Speaker 4: everything that you want to say, you want to build,
Speaker 4: you want to build, you want to do. It takes
Speaker 4: two to fight, hallelujah. So it's not like you don't
Speaker 4: see that things or no. Yeah, but you know that
Speaker 4: this is a tactic of the devil. Should I go
Speaker 4: fire for fire? No? And for me as a pastor,
Speaker 4: this is some one of the things that God has
Speaker 4: taught me over the years, and we have been doing it.
Speaker 4: We always got I said that you have have you
Speaker 4: talked to them? Have you taught them how to use
Speaker 4: the term? If no teach, then they will have no excuse.
Speaker 4: Maybe they don't know. We admit a lot of us
Speaker 4: are coming from this fans now and one of my
Speaker 4: count they said when they were there was such a
Speaker 4: large house. The father had to buy boxing gloves.
Speaker 2: M hm.
Speaker 4: So so when when when the controlvers, and then then
Speaker 4: they will he will give you the gloves, and then
Speaker 4: you have to fight and settle the score. And this
Speaker 4: this was a polygamy. So so some of the children
Speaker 4: they were of the same. Then this one in your bonnoop,
Speaker 4: in your bonnopa, it's okay if I come, let's settle
Speaker 4: the nuoper thing and then you'll give them the boxing
Speaker 4: gloves and then I mean realo and they will fight.
Speaker 4: So next than you have to empty the trash box. Yeah,
Speaker 4: now that we are settled it. Yeah, amen, Amen, you
Speaker 4: know so why yes, it's the same reputation thing. Why
Speaker 4: don't you allow yourselves in this scripture to be misunderstood?
Speaker 4: Even though God you say, God is the final judge,
Speaker 4: and as you say say every conversation, it will be
Speaker 4: jack on the final day. Amen. Then let's do the
Speaker 4: last verse, and then we'll pray, and then and then
Speaker 4: we'll continue on Wednesday. Why every kind of beast and
Speaker 4: bed of reptile and creature of the sea is tamed
Speaker 4: and has been tamed by mankind Verse eight. But no
Speaker 4: man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil food,
Speaker 4: of deadly poison. Let's go on, let me read you
Speaker 4: with it. Listen, we bless our God and Father, and
Speaker 4: with it with case men who have been made in
Speaker 4: the similitude of God. Ten out of the same mouth
Speaker 4: proceed blessing and cursing my bread. And these things ought
Speaker 4: not to be so, So you understand. For a believer,
Speaker 4: let it always. That's why I said, seizing your conversations
Speaker 4: with so we have been redeemed to be a blessing.
Speaker 4: So when you are true and a genuine and a
Speaker 4: sincere believer, I no remember what Jesus said. He said
Speaker 4: a good tree can only bear good fruit. When you
Speaker 4: are seeing the battery, the immediate the bathroom, immediately your
Speaker 4: mind goes that, no, no, their roots, there's something wrong
Speaker 4: with it. That's why I've taken my time every time
Speaker 4: I have the opportunity to take. It's not me, but
Speaker 4: I know it's God that take them to the foundation.
Speaker 4: You are yeah, you hear me over and over the
Speaker 4: foundation because immediately you get the foundation right, and God
Speaker 4: seals and endorses you with the holy ghow. We are
Speaker 4: on track. We are on track, because you will never
Speaker 4: enjoy it if you are producing badroom, because you have
Speaker 4: a good tree, and the Holy Spirit would chastise you.
Speaker 4: He says that every son that he receives, he does
Speaker 4: what he disciplines. God is a disciplinarian. Say amen, God disciplines,
Speaker 4: God chasties it, God rebukes, God corrects. And I believe
Speaker 4: that this month is using that to do it. And
Speaker 4: this yet to bring order into the way we conduct
Speaker 4: our lives individually, in the family level, in the community,
Speaker 4: and we're leading church. A lot of things are going
Speaker 4: on that has made the church on healthy and you, yourself,
Speaker 4: you and either Christian work is unhealthy. People cannot recognize
Speaker 4: the image of Christ in us. Why no order? And
Speaker 4: it's all because the foundation, the word, the way we
Speaker 4: are not reading the word, we are not meditating on it,
Speaker 4: and we are all paying it. So our conversations, we
Speaker 4: have been saved by our conversations, doesn't show that we
Speaker 4: have been seen. And it's telling us that you and
Speaker 4: I we are responsible. Even only will rise up and
Speaker 4: take responsibility. We contend the term by the power and
Speaker 4: the health of the Holy Spirit. So we are welcoming
Speaker 4: you today, married Clark for longevity. The term I tell
Speaker 4: you you can make it. Amen, Let God take center staves.
Speaker 4: The same God who guided your lives when we're a
Speaker 4: young boy young girl, gave your time, talent and treasures,
Speaker 4: he says, I change notes. The secret is that don't
Speaker 4: grow out. And now you are no longer a child
Speaker 4: of God. Anytime that you majore and you are no
Speaker 4: longer a child of God, You're in big trouble because
Speaker 4: you don't take instructions. Amen, seventeen year old, you give
Speaker 4: your life God, you call you child of God, twelve
