 Lord God. In the service, Lord God. In the name of Jesus, Lord God, we ask you this morning, Lord God, that you allow your word to continue, Lord God, to prick hearts, Lord God. In the name of Jesus, Lord God, we said in your word that no one, no one can come to the father unless they're drawing Lord God. In the name of Jesus, Lord God, when we thank you, Lord God, for your gift this morning is 1st Timothy, chapter 6 verses 6 through 10. But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world and it's certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment, let us be there with content. But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare. And into many foolish and hurtful lust which drowned men in destruction and petition. For the love of money is the root of all evil. Which while some coveted after, they have erred through the faith and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. Amen. God bless the scripture this morning. Praise the lord saints. Praise the lord saints. Hallelujah. God is worthy to be praised. Hallelujah. Minister Marilyn was leading us and thank God for the blood. I thank God for his precious blood. Hallelujah.

assemble again on this Sunday morning in the house of God there are many who laid down on their bed on last evening and they didn't get up this morning but God has spared us another day giving us another opportunity to praise and magnify him for all that he is for his people I want to acknowledge that that you've done as far as giving is concerned Elder Ross gave us the figures I want you to be confident turn to your neighbor and tell him be confident that the word of God is true the word of God says if you cast your bread up on the water come on somebody if you're not stingy if you're not giving change when you should give big bucks he said cast that bread on the water and it's going to come back to you in a short time it'll come back to you in a short time now I believe that you know why I believe it because I've experienced it I said I've experienced it so I want to thank you members of this congregation for your willingness to hear the voice of the Lord and for us to be able to respond to that great catastrophe let the Lord be praised in everything that we do God bless you we're going to be praying for you we know the Lord is going to protect you and he's going to bring you back safe and sound amen alright today I'm excited to have this opportunity again to speak to the people of God the Lord has thank you thank you the Lord has been so kind to us the Lord loves us with an everlasting love and we can understand or appreciate as we should what his love provides for us and I think that in many instances most of us are very spoiled amen amen I I come from a large family but even the large family was spoiled and I through the years people have talked about where they lived and where they grew up many people say well I grew up in the projects and you know somebody said you know I was homeless in my car and all of that and I was able to say I never lived in any house other than my father's house until I went to the military the Lord provided for us down through the years and it wasn't we didn't live in the ghetto we were doing really good for our time and for our station in the 40's and the 50's things have changed some thank the Lord but what I want to bring to your attention is many times we're so well off that we become discontent because we see something that looks better in the book of Luke chapter 15 there's an account of a father that had two sons and I'm sure that you're all aware of this you've heard this priest or taught perhaps many times this is a parable that Jesus presented in verse 11 Luke chapter 15 verse 11 he said and he said a certain man had two sons and the younger of them said his father, father give me the portion of goods that falleth to me and he divided unto them his living and not many days after the younger son gathered all together and took his journey into a far country and there wasted his substance with riotous living when he had spent all there arose a mighty famine in the land and he began to want and he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country and sent him into his field to feed swine and he would feign have filled his belly with the husk that the swine did eat and no man gave unto him nobody nobody gave verse 17 is the key verse for me and when he came to himself what is simply said in this in my kind of vernacular I'd say he was out of his mind so the scripture said when he came to himself when he got his wits together and when he thought about where he is at this point and where he had been in the past that was so much better he said when he came to himself he said how many hired servants of my fathers have read enough to spare and I perish with hunger he said I will rise and go to my father and will say unto him father I have sinned against heaven and before thee and I'm no more worthy to be called thy son make me as one of thy hired servants who rose and came to his father but when he was yet a great way off he was a great way off his father saw him and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him and the son said unto his father I have sinned against heaven and end thy sight and I'm no more worthy to be called thy son I won't go any further than that we know the end of the story the father called for the fatic calf and so forth but what I want to extract from this text here today is there's an opportunity to make it right there's an opportunity to make it right and I want to use for our subject I want to use for our subject today I'll take you back now I want to go to the main text for today which is found in the book of Isaiah Isaiah 54 Isaiah 54 speaks of the Saviour's great promise to Israel he promised to them restoration if repentance would come first verse number one reads sing O barren thou that did not bear break forth into singing and cry aloud thou that did not travail with child for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife say it the Lord he says at the position you find yourself in today you've been out of control he said you were barren you weren't able to have children and in that day for a woman to not be able to bear offspring it was a disgrace but she was in that position for a reason and the reason is that she lost her bearing she looked upon things that were not to be looked upon by the children of God they looked into the world and they began to hunger and to thirst after the many things that the world had to offer but the Lord wants his people who are back slitting and this is the text for back sliding said if you're back slitting don't lose your mind don't get out of sorts completely you just need to repent the adversary of our souls the devil is through and the devil wants to entice each and every one of us to turn from that that we determined to do is to walk with God he wants us to turn around and make a new decision and it's sad that we're so easily tricked by the devil now the devil will give you a thirst for the world he'll cause you to look over on the other side of the fence and say it's much better over there and I want some of that out there but just know that it's just a trick the devil wants you to cross the fence so he can laugh at you and say you're on your way to hell you've done sin against God and you knew better and God is not going to forgive you how many know that every time Satan opens his mouth that he's a liar the scripture said he's the father of lies he's the one that's starting making up lies from the beginning and so he wants to convict you of what he caused you to do and he wants you to question whether or not the Lord will take you back and he'll say to you you know what you did you know it wasn't right and everybody knows all about it now but more than that God knows about it and he's not going to forgive you well this this passage is talking about the promises of God so the Lord begins to say he said I promise you he said don't worry about what has happened you know you just need to get your heart right he said if you straighten out with me he said you have a wonderful end that's coming to you so he said sing O barren woman you don't have any children but don't let that bother you don't let that cost you to throw your hands up and give up and quit he said you sing you didn't bury any children right the second verse he said encourage you he said enlarge the place of thy tent and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitation spare not spare not lengthen thy cards and strengthen thy stakes the Lord says he sang to the church he said it's not over the devil's trying to wreak havoc in all of the church groups throughout all of the world those who seek the Lord and save you Jesus Christ they're being tested they've been tried he said but I want you to know it's not gonna go down like this it's not gonna flash, crash and burn like the devil's trying to pretend he said it's gonna grow he said it's gonna get better even though you've been out of the church in over a year and a half he said don't worry about that he said you just get to singing start to praise me like you did on this morning give glory and honor to that that I've done for you already in spite of you not being faithful to me he said people selling churches y'all know that? churches are going out of business but he said this is not the time to look back this is not the time to quit this is not the time to give up he said increase your tent build those tents he said matter of fact whatever you got he said build on some more add an addition on to your house add an addition on to your tent because it's gonna be filled he said thou shall break forth on the right hand and on the left and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles and make the desolate cities to be inhabited he said fear not for thou shall not be ashamed neither be thou confounded for thou shall not be put to shame he said you're not gonna go down in shame he said I'm gonna lift you up I'm gonna make it better I'm gonna turn it around in your favor for thou shall forget the shame of thy youth and the reproach of the widowhood anymore this particular verse includes all of us who are old and all the youth at this particular time you know maybe we're a little bit dishonest because when we get some age on us we forget about what we used to did that's my ebonics that's right Dr. Ross the song says why can't they be like we were perfect in every way what's the matter with kids today see you forgot to stand in front of the mirror because if you stood in front of that mirror you would see yourself and you would remember where you came down that road you remember where you made a mistake you remember where you made a misstep you remember when you intentionally turned your back on that that you knew to be right and you did what you wanted to do but he said what I'm gonna do if you repent come on somebody you need to come to grift with who you are you need to be sure that you tell yourself who you are it's a funny thing I remember when I was a young kid in church we sit in church and I'd be looking right at the preacher and for some reason I was thinking he couldn't see me I couldn't get it in my brain that while I'm looking at him he's looking right at me I thought there were all of these people he couldn't possibly see me well thank the Lord I got victory over that I got a little bit more knowledge than that but what we have to do is we really have to look at ourselves don't think that we you know we're perfect all have sin and come short of the glory of God when you got the Holy Ghost and you're walking right with them and you're intending to do the right thing you're still falling short you're falling short because you're not doing everything that you know to do let me move on you're not for thou should not be ashamed be thou confounded for thou shall not be put to shame for thou shall forget the shame of thy youth and shall not remember the reproach of thy widowhood now what he's talking about he's talking about this woman this is talking about Israel and so it points to a woman said she was unfaithful to her husband and because she was unfaithful to her husband she lost her marriage but the Lord says I can fix it he said all you need to do is repent from your backslidden position and if you do that he said you'll be restored he's talking about reconciliation among him he's talking about the people verse 5 said for thy maker is thine husband he said God created you Israel God created you church people he said and not only did I make you he said I married you he said I married to the backsliders even he said so hold on to your horses it's gonna happen I'm gonna restore I'm gonna reclaim for thy maker is thine husband the Lord of hosts is his name and thy redeemer the holy one of Israel the God of the whole earth shall be shall he be called for the Lord has called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit and a wife of youth when thou was refused said thy God he said for a small moment he says you're in the penalty box but not forever come on somebody you know sometimes we do something to one a person we know a relative or something or a mate and they say I'll never forgive you that was just too bad I can't stand it and I'll never forgive you I'll never forget it and you won't either but the Lord come on somebody the maker the creator he says for one small moment have I forsaken thee but with great mercy will I gather thee in a little wrath I hid my face from thee he said I was mad at you for a moment and I wouldn't let you see me you couldn't get the glimpse of me that you needed I hid my face from thee for a moment but with everlasting kindness with everlasting kindness with kindness forever will I have mercy on thee and said the Lord thy redeemer he said I'm going to redeem you the devil can't have you I didn't make you for the devil he said I created you for my glory and you're not going to just walk off from me he said I'm going to test you I'm going to try you I'm going to put you in the penalty box but I'm not going to leave you there but I'm going to get you back I'm bringing you back to myself the devil is a lie the people walk around if you ever step on a crack on a sidewalk the Lord's going to get you and you'll never be able to go to heaven if you have the power of the Holy Ghost in you why are you wondering am I going to make it I hear people who've been saved for many many years expressing a question well I just want to please the Lord I hope that I make it to heaven what are you talking about you got the power of God living on the inside of you and everything that he requires he's able to do it in you he said I don't start nothing that I don't finish I finish everything I put my hand to and I put my hand on you and you're going to finish all you got to do is repent he's talking about reconciliation reconciliation is guaranteed by God oh no, he took an oath well this is as the waters of Noah unto me for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth so have I sworn that I would not be wrought with the nor rebuke me he said now you know about that rainbow in the sky he said that's it's a sign of the oath that I gave when I flooded the earth and got rid of all of the sinners except Noah and his family he said now I did that once but I won't do that again he said that's a promise an oath so he said now when I did how I worked the situation out before it doesn't mean I'm going to do it that way every time he said I have something different in mind for you so have I sworn that I would not be wrought with the nor rebuke me for the mountains shall depart and the hills be removed but my kindness shall not depart from thee he said let the earth do what it wants let it shake and let it rattle and roll and let the mountains be moved and let the flood be moved but that doesn't have anything to do with your and my relationship he said I'm going to show you kindness my kindness shall not depart from thee neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed said the lord that hath mercy on me come on somebody need to say mercy mercy lord we stand in the position where we need your help we know we've not made it the way that you inquired us to but we ask you lord not to give us justice lord because if we got justice it would be the saddest thing in the world we just need mercy so I thank you god because you said you're going to give mercy the repentant backslider would be given a glorious future it's a picture of the saviors kingdom he said in verse 11 all thou afflicted tossed with tempest and not confided he said you look here I will lay thy stone with fair colors and lay thy foundation with sapphires he's talking about the place that he's prepared for us over in glory and I don't know what all these stones are but what it's pointing to is he said with the most precious materials that there is anywhere not on earth in heaven wherever it is he said these are precious materials that I'm making your foundation with he said I'm putting the foundation under you I will make thy windows thy windows of agate and thy gates of carbuncle and all thy borders of pleasant stones he said every stone I put in the building he said it's going to be alright he said you're going to be amazed when you see it he said you'll see beauty like you've never seen before it will cost you to think oh how glad I am that he had this mercy on me that he didn't count all that I did and blood covered my sins and I'm now standing in his presence and I see the most beautiful thing that has ever been seen hallelujah hallelujah and he said after that he said not only that all your children shall be taught of the lord and great shall be the peace of thy children let me let me talk to us about our children you're responsible for your children God didn't allow you to have children for somebody else to be responsible for I've never been a teacher school teacher I have family members who chose that road to travel and I've heard of how some people send their kids to school unprepared completely and when their kid comes home with failing grades they want to get into teacher's face and say why is he getting grades like this because he doesn't know the material were you supposed to teach him well I'm telling you the Lord doesn't play that when the Lord gives you an offspring I don't care how bad they may turn out to be that's going to be up to you see because you're charged with teaching hearing that child in the fear and admonition of the lord and savior Jesus Christ but we get lazy sometimes and we don't feel like doing it hello well I'm going to tell you're going to have to give an account for yourself and the account for yourself will be an account of what you did or didn't do with your children I have here in my book here I have a little thing taped in here and it's a title of a song I found Jesus I have found him and I'm glad and I never shall be sad I have tasted love divine and it's in this heart of mine I found Jesus and I'm glad now I have in my office certificates for attendance in Sunday school when I was less than a year old had perfect attendance and I put that in my office for parents to see I got the certificates my parents did the work I couldn't get myself anywhere I didn't know anything so now what happened in my life my parents taught us they instructed us let me make a little difference teaching this is just me this is how I see it you can teach material that is never received and sometimes because the instructions is not emphatic enough come on somebody so now sometimes you teach your children and they won't get it but you need to continue to teach and teach and teach and teach and pound it in their heads until they receive it the members of this congregation they know my story but for those who don't know me my parents were baptized in water in Jesus name for the mission of their sins and filled with the Holy Ghost many years before I was born and they declared our house a sanctified zone and they insisted that we do the right thing hello that was the job of the Holy Ghost yes, but their Holy Ghost helpers and they said I don't care if you're not saved you're going to act like you saved as long as you live in this house and so I'm convinced that had they not been that strong in their belief and their faith in God they would have let things slide nothing slid in our house and we all became detectives of another I had 15 detectives plus my parents but you know I look at what transpired with our family everybody everybody became involved in ministry in some form or another because we got it we got it down in our spirit I was telling some of the brethren while we were working we've been working on the building for three months and people say you a workaholic you silly you just silly you just work too much and I said to the brethren I said you know I created a habit of working in the house of God and a habit of working in the house of God it changed who I am it became my hobby I love to work in the house of God I love to work in the building of the kingdom of God and I'll do it every chance that I get you gonna wear yourself out you too old to be working like that well some people rust out they just wear out I ain't rusting out I stayed oiled up the oil of the Holy Ghost keeps me going every time I get down here and I work until I'm exhausted and then I drive myself back and then I get some sleep and I come back again now that's because I was directed in that path and I'm sorry we didn't have the name of the games the last one I know about is Game Boy we didn't have Game Boy or any of that kind of stuff and so we didn't get ourselves to be in a habit of having to have that and people create a habit for themselves that's gonna cost them in the end I created a habit I found a love for Jesus Jesus found me and he put love in my heart for him and I found him and I'm glad I'll never be sad I tasted his love divine it's in my heart when I work for Jesus it counts for something when you play the Game Boy all you do is get mad because she didn't do better well when you walk with God he said the Lord's gonna satisfy you with everything that heaven has to hold for you and your children be taught of the Lord the Lord's gonna teach them and great shall be the peace of thy children in righteousness shall thou be established thou should be far from from oppression for thou should not fear from terror for it shall not come near thee verse 15 behold he said behold means look they shall surely gather together but not by me whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for your sake he said I'm giving you a promise if you'll long to be with me come on somebody he said yes you played the fool and you walked off for me and you weren't faithful to me and every time I tried to get you back in line you'd still turn around and went back again time and time again but he says I love you he said I'll take you back under the condition that you'll come repent of your sins be godly sorrowful that you'll miss the mark every time you miss the mark it's against God he said don't keep going in the direction you're going he said turn yourself around come to me cast your care on me he said I love you and I'll take you back just like the prodigal son his father didn't have any question in his mind what to do when he saw his boy coming down the road when he saw his son coming after having come to himself after he got his mind straight he decided he was going back to his father and his father saw him coming down the road and he leaped up and he said oh man in that society old men didn't hop and skip they walked like this dignified but when he saw his boy he said that's my boy that's the one that belongs to me and I love him and even though he's been messing up he said I didn't throw him out of the family because he messed up I still love him and I'm going to restore him the Lord said I want you back I want you back no matter how far you've gone he said you can turn it around if you just repent if you just say Lord I'm sorry I recognize the fact that I've not walked as you would have me to do take me back take me back he said I'll take you I'll take you back he said I'm going to people are going to come against you they're going to try to take you out he said but they're going to fall for your sake behold I have created the smith that blowed the coals in the fire and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work and I have created the waste to destroy he says I made the guy who made the gun I made the guy who made the bomb I made the guy who made the hand grenade I made the guy who makes a homemade bomb in his basement he said I made all of them and they try to come against you he said but they're going to come against you but I didn't send it he said I'm going to use them but this is our redeeming verse right here and we all know this one verse 17 he says understand he said I told you to look up in verse 16 and I pointed out to you all of the things that could come against you he said but don't worry don't fret don't be downhearted don't be sad he said no weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper no weapon no matter what they put together no matter what they stir up he said no weapon formed against you shall prosper and he said and even more than that he said when it comes time for judgment he said every time that shall rise against thee in judgment come on somebody you know there's some tattle tales they know your business hello you did something with somebody they know all the ins and outs about it and they could tell the story but he says when it comes time for judgment he said when you stand before me in judgment every time that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn he said I'm going to give you a chance to condemn it you know what it is when you stand before God and you repent first you've had your sins washed away in his name and he filled you with the Holy Ghost and when you get to heaven there'll be the adversary at the judgment table and they'll be trying to say well you know he was a liar he was the biggest liar in Long Beach and the judge says would you like to address that and you'll say Lord I thank you because you knew me I thank you because you loved me I thank you because when I came to you and I confessed my sins I thank you that you heard me and thank you because you felt my heart and I thank you because it doesn't count you said that it wouldn't count you said it recovered by your blood and the Lord will say I don't see it on the book no weapon every time that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn it the righteousness of the servants of the Lord and their righteousness is of me saying the Lord now part of what the Lord is going to say in that judgment is the Lord, the adversary Lord you know everything and you know that he did it you know she was nothing but a liar you know that they were both thieves together dressed in his righteousness alone oh may I stand before the throne on Christ on Christ the solid rock on Christ the solid rock I stand right here on the solid rock nor the ground is all of the ground is sinking stand all of the ground is sinking stand on the rock when you stand before Jesus you need to be standing on the rock come on somebody come on you need to praise him right now you need to give him some glory you need to thank him for all he's done in the past all he's doing right now everything he's going to do for you in the future and mostly when you stand before him blameless he said I'll count you worthy he said you won't be worthy I'll count you worthy hallelujah hallelujah I walk with the king hallelujah I walk with the king praise his name no longer I roam my soul faces home I walk and I talk with the king he wants you back don't let the devil fool you the devil's a liar he's a conjurer too don't let him get you the Lord wants you back I want you to be encouraged today saints be encouraged the Lord Jesus came down from heaven he came down from heaven in a fleshly body and the reason he needed to come in a fleshly body so he could experience what the flesh goes through scripture said he was tempted in all faces such as we but when he did that he was the god man he was fully god and he was fully man hello somebody he was fully god and he was fully man so he understood the godly things and he felt the fleshly things and he wanted to see it too I propose that to some people that was the most ungodly thing you would say something like that well he came down to me he tried to make me keep going come off here stand right here the reason he came in the flesh was because he couldn't tell you you could do it if he didn't do it he did it and he proved that it was doable it was fleshly body alright just for me just for me Jesus came and did it just for me just for me just for me just for me more Jesus came and did it just for me lay a hand on your chest and say just for me Jesus came just for me Jesus came Jesus came Jesus came and did it just for me oh, yes, she did just for me just for me Jesus came Jesus came and did it somebody say just for you. Jesus came and did it. Jesus came and did it. Just for you. Just for you. Just for you. Just for you. Oh yeah. Just for you. Jesus came. Jesus came and did it. Just for you. Come on give God praise today. Come on bless your Lord today. Give Him praise and glory. The staple singer says I'll take you there. But God says I'll take you back. I like that. Make sure you take the opportunity to get it right. To make it right. Tell your neighbor take the opportunity to make it right. To your eternity is in the balance. Will you spend eternity in heaven or in hell? We don't like to talk about that too much. But we've got to make it right. If you haven't been saved, if you haven't been born of the water and of the spirit, make it right. If you're in a back slitting condition and you're out there acting a fool, all you got to do is come home and make it right. He's a merciful God. Bishop let us know he's a merciful God.

Say Jesus came, Jesus came and did it just. Tell him one more time, just for you, just for you, just for you. And you and you and you and you. Jesus came and did it just for you. Jesus came and did it just for you. Come on home, the Father said, come on home, just for you. Jesus, Jesus came and did it. And before I hand the microphone over to Sister Marilyn, we're not going to be like the prodigal son brother. She said, why would you let him come home after all he did? If you come home, we will run out and throw our arms around you and say, thank God, you made it home. And today you can make it right. We love you. We want you. The world may not want you. Some other churches may not want you. We want you because we love you. Because we have the love of God dwelling on the inside. We love you. God bless you. Please take this opportunity and make it right, Sister Marilyn. Boy, that's right. We're going to celebrate Hallelujah. The angel in heaven rejoiced at one soul, Hallelujah.
