CD 1766 A.M. I Will Not Miss My Time - Part 2

Bro Jason on the screen: Psa 90:10-12 KJV 10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. 11 Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath. 12 So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.

Notice in verse 12 we are to ask the Lord to teach us - from the Hebrew this means to know by seeing.

Q. What is he wanting to teach us: how to number our days?
A. So that we can live in wisdom. Make note of the word number from the Hebrew means to count out and then to appoint!

Decree with me: I will not miss my time from the Lord! With his help, by his instruction I will make the most of my time for his glory and will!

Text: Ecc 3:1-8 KJV 1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: 2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; 3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; 4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; 5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; 6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; 7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; 8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
We talked about Abraham this morning, tonight let's look at Elisha the the Godly.

#2 Elisha
*Read 1Ki 19:15-21 KJV 15 And the LORD said unto him, Go, return on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus: and when thou comest, anoint Hazael to be king over Syria: 16 And Jehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint to be king over Israel: and Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abelmeholah shalt thou anoint to be prophet in thy room. 17 And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth the sword of Hazael shall Jehu slay: and him that escapeth from the sword of Jehu shall Elisha slay. 18 Yet I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him. 19 So he departed thence, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he with the twelfth: and Elijah passed by him, and cast his mantle upon him. 20 And he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said, Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow thee. And he said unto him, Go back again: for what have I done to thee? 21 And he returned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen, and slew them, and boiled their flesh with the instruments of the oxen, and gave unto the people, and they did eat. Then he arose, and went after Elijah, and ministered unto him.

*2Ki 2:1-15 KJV 1 And it came to pass, when the LORD would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal. 2 And Elijah said unto Elisha, Tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to Bethel. And Elisha said unto him, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they went down to Bethel. 3 And the sons of the prophets that were at Bethel came forth to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to day? And he said, Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace. 4 And Elijah said unto him, Elisha, tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to Jericho. And he said, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they came to Jericho. 5 And the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho came to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest th

CD 1768 Having, Holding, Hearing the Holy Spirit
Praying in the Holy Spirit
Donna and I laid down at 8:00. Went to sleep somewhere around 9:00 then woke up after about 30 minutes. I have took NyQuil and Benadryl, a cold out the salsa still awake so now I took I a amitriptyline. So I'm sitting in my chair praying in tongues.


Scriptures:
Text: Jude 1:19-21 KJV 19 These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit. 20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, 21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

From these versus the scripture we see three great benefits of praying in the Holy Spirit:

#1 Faith being Built

Notice in verse 19 they talk about being sensual in other words carnal rather than spiritual! But then the Lord with his word gives us the solution. He tells us to build ourselves up on our most holy Faith. Remember in Romans 12:3 we know that the lord gave us the measure of faith. We know that Romans 10:17 tells us that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. When we consider what Jesus told us and John chapter 14 about the holy Spirit would remind us of things Jesus had said and teach us new things then it's clear that when we start praying in the holy Spirit that The measure of Faith the word was built on causes our soul - our mind will and emotions to be renewed!

#2 Living by Love

But as we see then in verse 21 there is a great extra added benefit as well! Notice he said that we were to keep ourselves in the love of God! Romans 5:5 tells us that the love of God is being shed abroad in our heart. So when we pray in tongues not only does it build up our faith but it puts the love of God to work in our lives. When we consider that first Corinthians 13:8 tells us that love never fails! So just in these few verses of scripture we see the power of living the abundant Life that Jesus came to give us!

This is a great benefit in the understanding that Jesus said in John 14:15 if you love me you'll keep my commandments. So in other words we should be able to follow the word of God more closely in truth. This is very exciting when you consider and John 8:31 through 32 and then in verse 36 Jesus teaches about becoming his disciple and knowing the truth that would make us free. He said who the Son makes free is free indeed!

#3 Moved by Mercy

He tells us to look for His Mercy! That word translated looking means to wait and confidence with patience!

Read Luke 1:71-75 KJV 71 That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us; 72 To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant; 73 The oath which he sware to our father Abraham, 74 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear, 75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.

Notice in verse 72 that God had promised Mercy all through his word through his son Jesus Christ! From Genesis 3:15 to Isaiah prophesying about Jesus 700 years before the fact! So we can be assured of his Mercy. The more that we pray in the holy Spirit the more aware of the fact that because of this Mercy we have fellowship with him and do no longer have to be controlled by the spirit of fear! Note 2 Timothy 1:7 the word of God tells us that God is not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, and love and of a sound mind!
