Yes, Lord. And to those who are called according to his purpose. Yes, Lord. For whom he did for know, he did also predestinate. Yes. And to be conformed to the image of his son. That he might be the first born among many brethren. Yes, yes. Moreover, whom he did predestinate. Come on. Them he called and to them he called. He also justified. Justified. To whom he justified. Come on. To them he also glorified. Hallelujah. What shall we say to these things? Yes. Yes. If God before us. Before us. If God before us. Who can be against us? Yes, Lord. Yes, Lord. Say, he that spat not his own son, but delivered him unto them, delivered him unto the will of us all. How shall we? How shall he who is not with him also be freely giving us all things?

None of these things. None. For it is written. For thy sake, we are killed all day long. For we are counted as sheep for the slaughter. It says, nay, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. I like this. For I am persuaded. I am convinced. I believe with all of my heart that neither life, nor death, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come. No height. Uh huh. No death. Yes. No any other creature shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus, our Lord. Thank you Lord. I am persuaded that none of these things.

No it's all about my mind is made go God's way the rest of my life that's why we chase after yes we we long to be and we chase after him and that's a good chase it's not like some be some chases you might see on the street we're chasing after the king of kings the Lord of Lords the Creator of everything Jesus Christ the righteous so good to be back in the house of the Lord on this morning thank the Lord for a new year the Lord has extended us another opportunity to sing praise unto his name glorify him who's our father in heaven before I go into the message I have to make one announcement and it says today at 5 p.m. Apostle Henry Alexander is looking forward to all the members of the Shield of Faith Fellowship of churches including the whole body to meet this afternoon at 5 p.m.

body fellowship build shield of faith Christian Center international we invite you to join in this afternoon at 5 o'clock for that meeting you'll be inspired I'm on the executive board and they we work hard the Apostle has had a word for the Lord that he was going to present to each of us but we may be strengthened that we may be prepared for the soon coming of Jesus Christ the Lord is coming soon and I for all of my years I've heard the Lord is coming soon and someone would say well they've been saying it for as long as you're old when is soon well I'll tell you it's sooner than it was when I was born amen it's it's sooner I when I look at society I kind of think within myself what can be next what else can they do what else is possible for sinners to do but we don't worry about that we're safe we belong to Jesus and he belongs to us it's not a one-way relationship it's a true love relationship on both parts I thank the Lord for the anointed praise and worship on this morning as as usual the Lord comes by and he blesses our the offering of the songs that we present amen thank God that he loves us or to the message on today the Lord wants to help us the Lord saw us in our condition and he knew that something had to be done and he knew who do just who could do it now I'll say that the Lord says kind of like we say if you want something done right you need to do it yourself well God saw us in our rich condition and he says I'll come down to man he wrapped himself in a fleshly body came down to be an example for us all and it came to provide the perfect sacrifice for the sins of mankind so I thank God I praise God for what he is to me what he is to the children of men for our scripture texts on this morning we read from Romans chapter number 8 and we began at 28 and went through 39 that's going to be the ultimate aim for my sermon on today those particular verses but I feel that it's important for us to understand what the beginning of the chapter speaks to now we are reading started at verse 28 and I want to read through a good portion of the early part of this text and I'm going to be reading from the living Bible living Bible will give us a clear understanding first one says so there is now no condemnation awaiting those who belong to Christ Jesus the power of the life-giving Spirit and this power is mined through Christ Jesus while I'm here I'll pause and say my text is trusting Jesus that's all trusting Jesus that's all we aren't saved from sins grasp by knowing the commandments of God because we can't and don't keep them but God put into effect a different plan to save us he sent his own son in a human body like ours except that ours are sinful and destroyed sins control over us by giving himself as a sacrifice for our sin he gave himself as a sacrifice so now we can obey God's law if we follow after the Holy Spirit and no longer obey the old evil nature within us he said we didn't have the ability to keep the commandments and we proved it over and over and over and so God says I'm gonna come down and I'm gonna bring a plan of salvation that man can do so now we can obey God's law if we follow after the Holy Spirit and no longer obey the old evil nature within us those who let themselves be controlled by their lower nature live only to please themselves those who follow after the Holy Spirit the Holy Ghost find themselves doing those things that please God following after the Holy Spirit leads to life and peace but following after the old nature leads to death because the old sinful nature within us is against God it never did obey God's law and it never will your nature will never obey God's law you know why your nature won't let you that's why those who are still under the control of their old sinful selves bit on following their old evil nature can never please God I want to please him I understand I've got to please him see we talk about the Lord being the Lord of our life and what that simply means to me is the Lord means he's the boss and in my years of experience of working I've seen people fired that was never anything that I found to be pleasurable in my eyesight I never wanted to be fired and so I always did what I could to please the boss he said without the Spirit of God you can't please the boss but you are not like that he's talking to the church you are controlled by your new nature and if you have the Spirit of God living in you and remember that if anyone doesn't have the Spirit living in him he is not a Christian at all so this declares that the Holy Ghosts the infilling of an individual's being of the Holy Ghost is the only thing that can cause you to be able to please God if you don't have it you're not a child of God yet even though Christ lives within you your body will die because of sin but your spirit will live for Christ has parted in and if the Spirit of God who raised up Jesus from the dead lives in you he will make your dying body live again after you die that's why my mind is made up my mind is made up to go all the way with Jesus by means of the same Holy Spirit living within you so dear brothers you have no obligation whatsoever to your old sinful nature to do what it begs you to do so you don't have to apologize to to anybody or to the devil why you don't do all that stuff you used to do before before the Lord found you and loved you put his arms around you washed your sins away and put his spirit in you he said before that you were a mess from the floor up tore up from the floor up he said but now you don't have to apologize when people say what's wrong with you you used to be cool you you're sticking the mud now you're a killjoy we we we actually got to the place where we're looking for the time when you'll leave so we can get the party on he said you don't have to apologize for living the new life or if we keep on following it following it you are lost and will perish but it through the power of the Holy Spirit you crush it and its evil deeds you shall live all who are led by the Spirit of God they are the sons of God now let's skip down now when we're talking after we've talked about the ends and the outs the ends are when you belong to Jesus the outs of when you are still under the control of the adversary of the soul so the writer says to us in verse 28 I'm sorry let me let me back up one second let me let me go to verse 26 likewise the Spirit all so helps I'm in the King James version now likewise the Spirit also helps our infirmity the Holy Ghost helps our weakness come on somebody you don't have to worry about being weak weak because the Lord says my strength is made perfect in your weakness he said so likewise the Spirit also helps our infirmities well we know not what we should pray for as we all but the Spirit itself make its intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered well those those others is to come out like a mmm the Lord understands that the Lord knows the feeling the Lord knows what you're longing for and he that searches the heart nor what is the mind of the Spirit because he make it intercession for the saints according to the will of God the Spirit of God the Holy Ghost goes before the throne of God in your behalf and you won't have to hear him say depart from me you won't have to hear him say you're a worker of iniquity and I don't know you I don't have a relationship with you he said God he said the Holy Ghost has gone before the Spirit of God God on the throne and says you bought him with the price the blood that was shed at Calvary covers and it reaches to all of those who will say yes to the Spirit of God and so we're comfortable and we're safe we're safe when he gets to verse 28 he's feeling very confident and I like what he says he said and we know and we know there's no doubt there's no question in our mind about whether or not we're gonna make the rapture when Jesus comes back for the church see what what we we were accustomed to doing before we got saved we hated to hear about the rapture the Lord's coming back for the church he's gonna take his people out of this earth and he's gonna say come my people they're gonna be caught up to meet him in the air and we say oh I'm not ready I'm not ready I hope he don't come I hope and if he does come I hope he don't come soon but the writer said we know that all things work together for good to them that love God to them who are the called according to his purpose he said there's no doubt in my mind what the price I'm paying for salvation is nothing come on somebody you know we have to deny ourselves if you're gonna be belong to Jesus if you're gonna be his child he says you got to behave yourself you got to stop your sinning you got to stop slipping and sliding and peeping and hiding and lying and stealing and on and on and on he said that's the old man he said you can't do that no more but now that you belong to Jesus now that he come he called you to himself now that he wraps his arms around you and comforts you and walks with you and talks with you he said now I know that everything that I've gone through everything I'm going through right now he said I know it's gonna be worth it I know that everything every situation that comes into my life come on y'all come on y'all see you know people want to why do bad things happen to good people bad things happen to all people we know that all things and you say well Lord I'm going through this test and it's the toughest one I've ever experienced and I know what your word says but I can't see no good nowhere in my sight nowhere in my view do I see how this is going to work out in my favor but because of your spirit that make it intercession because of the Holy Ghost that lives down on the inside you've given me a promise and I've learned that your promises are true and you've never made a mistake and you can't lie so I know according to your word everything that happens everything that happens in my life is going to work out for my good hallelujah hallelujah and I heard it expressed by Dr. Norma Sylvester she says God commands everything in your life he commands it to cooperate so that it works out for your good come on somebody when the when the bad things are coming when it seems like there's no no end to the test in the trials just know that God is still working it out just know that he's the king of kings know he's the Lord of Lords and know that he's whatever he says it will come to to fruition hallelujah hallelujah we're working for the boss who pays who pays big hallelujah hallelujah all things think about that all things all of them get together and work for your good for your deliverance for your satisfaction all things work together for good to them the love God to them who are the called according to his purpose who is those who called according to his purpose those who hear the voice of the Lord when Jesus says you're a sinner you know in yourself you're not right but he said come unto me all ye that labor all ye that are heavy laden he said come to me and I will give you rest he said I'll cause your life to turn around you walk with Jesus you can't keep walking on the same path because the Spirit of God will instruct you it'll let you but it'll tell you what you ought to do he said my yoke is easy he said it's not hard to serve me he said I've come and I'm assisting you in your Walker I'm giving you strength to say no to yourself I'm helping you say to the adversary get out of my face hallelujah y'all need to rebuke him like that sometimes just get out of my face I'm not listening to you you can't control me that's in the past now I've got the Spirit of God Jesus Christ is my Savior he has set me free now from sin and Satan I have liberty all because he loved me he died upon the tree died for my salvation out on Calvary out on Mount Calvary he paid the price hallelujah hallelujah so I can be assured so that I can know that the price I'm paying is not too much you know the devil tell you that say that's just too much they asking too much who's they he he is the one asking see people I don't know people think that somebody just sit down and make up rules let me let me go first the next verse 29 I said for whom he did for no he also did predestined to be conformed to the image of his son that he might be the first born among many brethren let me see if I can break that down said who whom he did for no those who God foreknew Jesus Christ is the one who foreknew he also did predestined to be conformed to the image of his son we've been called we've been chosen and we are predestined it is predetermined that you're going to see his face in peace come on somebody you're not doing this thing and wondering if I after all of this I put in I might not get a job I'll tell y'all about that when I was working I studied a whole year multiple multiple volumes of books for the fire captain's position and I passed the test and they stopped hiring for lack of funds and I died on the list you know what I said I said I'm never studying again that's too much of a sacrifice for maybe come on somebody I need to tell you you're not sacrificing for a maybe for a chance it is clear no fog in it we know that all things work together we know we're saved we know he's gonna catch catch us away in the rapture he says we're predestined to be in heaven with the king of kings he said because you're gonna be conformed to the image of the son he said you walk with Jesus he said you'll be changed and you'll be just like Jesus come on somebody oh I want to be like Jesus I want to walk like Jesus I want to talk like Jesus hallelujah I want to feel like Jesus I want compassion I want love I want mercy just like Jesus he said but if you walk in the spirit come on somebody he said you get all off in the Holy Ghost let the spirit of God lead you say Lord you leave me her Lord you guide me you tell me what to do tell me to turn right or tell me to turn left tell me to stop on the dime I'll stop because you're conforming me you're changing me from what I used to be hallelujah hallelujah he said more than that moreover whom he did predestinate then he also called thank God thank God thank God thank God thank God I heard the call he called me and I heard him hallelujah hallelujah he's calling all day every day to every man every woman boy or girl he said come unto me he said let me fix it let me fix you hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah whom he called he also justified he said I made him right he said they wouldn't fit to live and they wouldn't fit to die he said but I justified him come on he said he said I shed my blood hallelujah whom he justified then he also glorified come on somebody oh how glorious oh how wonderful how marvelous is his love for me hallelujah and I put a star by this next verse hallelujah he said what shall we then say to these things if God be for us if God be for us since God is for us who can be against us there's nobody who can come against the children of God there's nobody who can claim your soul nobody who can take you under when you got Jesus on your side when you're walking with him in his way I heard somebody say God and you are a majority the two of you are majority no matter how much how many people come against you you're in the majority and the majority rules come on some hallelujah hallelujah he spared not his own son but delivered him up for us all how shall he not with him also freely give us all things so we're the brother of Jesus come on somebody Jesus is my brother we talk we close we tight we relatives I can tell him all about it hallelujah you know how it is some stuff you don't want to tell somebody outside the family come on that's right because when you tell something to somebody out of family you don't know if they're gonna hold on to what you say or not you don't know if you can trust can I trust if you have to say can I trust you don't say it you can't trust them they out of the family hallelujah who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect it is God that justifies you know the adversary is mean he's wicked and he wants to reign on all of our parades and the devil let me turn this way is the accuser of the brother and the devil wants to stand in front of you and tell you you know you missed the market you know you're not getting it right a hundred percent and God requires a hundred percent of holiness say you ain't gonna make it cost you stepped on a crack and broke your mother's back come on somebody and so who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect who are you devil who are you devil's imps going around pointing the finger at the children of God say you know you ain't right come on someone and you know what you need to tell them yes I am I'm saved by the power of Christ Jesus I trust in Jesus and Jesus alone simply trusting Jesus and that's all I'm not saying that that I've lived a hundred percent perfect but God loves us God says I'm the judge I'm the judge come on somebody who who has the nerve to charge God's chosen God picked them up God turned them around he cleaned them up he put that feet on a solid ground now how are you gonna judge what God did he said who who is he that can damn it who has the nerve who has the audacity who has anything of substance who can condemn said it is Christ the died come on he said I'm the judge I'll make the decision I'm the one who bled I'm the one who sacrifice I'm the one who was whipped all night long he said I did it for them and can't nobody take that away who is he that condemn it it is Christ the died yeah rather than this rather than is risen again and who is even at the right hand of God who also make it intercession for us so based on that held the Ross we know we know not a stretch of the imagination but it is certain we know that all things work together we know that God has prepared a place for us and we know that we're going to make it to that city I'm going over there anybody want to go we made our mind up today I made up my mind to go God's way hallelujah I got my mind made up I won't turn back I want to see my Jesus someday my mind is made up I decided to make Jesus my choice I decided to walk with him I decided to talk to him I decided to give him control over my life I made up my mind to go God's way hallelujah he's the Savior he's the keeper he's the provider he's everything that we need hallelujah I want to be on his team hallelujah simply trusting Jesus come on somebody hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah I can go some more but I think I think I'll make a little detour right here this song I learned as a young boy it's called simply trusting every day verse begins simply trusting every day that means 24 hours a day on and on and on no matter what what day simply trusting every day trusting through a stormy way even when my faith is small trusting Jesus that's all brightly does his spirit shine into this poor heart of mine while he leads I cannot fall trusting Jesus that's all trusting Jesus that's all singing if my way is clear praying if the path be dreared if in danger for him call I'm trusting Jesus that's all that's all I understand Elder Ross that I tried it before I tried behaving myself I tried controlling this person who's inside of me and I didn't do a pretty good job I did a miserable job at it and I've now learned that it ain't gonna happen not without Jesus I'm trusting Jesus that's all I don't get no credit for it the only credit I get is that I choose to let him do it let me go one more time trusting him while life shall last trusting him till earth be passed till within the Jasper walls trusting Jesus that's all and and the refrain goes trusting as the moments fly trusting as the days go by trusting him what air be fall trusting Jesus that's all that's all oh it's all in him it's all in him our victory is in Jesus and we've got to learn to surrender ourselves we've got to throw our hands up and say Lord I need you every day I need you every hour because I know who I used to be but now I thank you her because I know that you're calling me out you're giving me the strength and the power to go on through life so that it may please you you took my sins away through baptism and you're filming with the Holy Ghost and I thank you it's all about Jesus Jesus the righteous hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah come on sister give us a song she tells somebody I'm gonna work together it's a done deal but I trust in a lot of different things and people sister Berlin but it just didn't work out but once we got saved washed in the blood of the Lamb filled with the Holy Ghost justified by his blood says then we know all things all things all things will work together for our good if you have not made Jesus Lord of your life if you have not been washed in the name of Jesus
