Matthew 18:18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven:

and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

[19] Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they

shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

[20] For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

I. TAKE HEED OF A DISAGREABLE SPIRIT IN THE HOME... DANGER...

ESAU AND JACOB HAD MANY ISSUES... BROTHERS THAT COULD NEVER AGREE...

A. ESAU HAD ATTITUDE PROBLEMS...

B. ESAU'S ATTITUDE PROBLEMS TENDED TO BLAME HIS BROTHER FOR EVERYTHING

HE DID...

Genesis 25:30 And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for

I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom.

C. ESAU HAD ISSUES IN HIS HEART... He despised his birthright.

Genesis 25:34 Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and

rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright.

D. Esau did things to sow discord...

He wanted to hurt his Mom/Dad...

Genesis 26:34 And Esau was forty years old when he took to wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the

Hittite, and Bashemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite:

[35] Which were a grief of mind unto Isaac and to Rebekah.

E. ESAU WAS A BITTER AND ANGGRY MAN...

Genesis 27:34 And when Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with a great and exceeding bitter

cry, and said unto his father, Bless me, even me also, O my father.

F. THE EDOMITES WERE ESAU'S TRIBE... THEY WERE KNOWN AS MEAN, CRUEL, BITTER,

PEOPLE...

G. REMEMBER THE MEAN AND BITTER DOEG THE EDOMITE?

HE KILLED EVERY ONE THAT CARRIED THE EPHOD BUT ONE GOT AWAY....

H. READ THE READ OF ESAU IN THE NEW TESTAMENT...

Hebrews 12:17 For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was

rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.

I. ESAU COULD NEVER FIND IN HIS HEART A CHANGE...

Genesis 37:4 And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they

hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him.

II. TAKE HEED TO NOT AGREEING WITH THE MESSAGE OF THE PREACHER...

THERE WAS A TERRIBLE DROUGHT IN THE LAND, PEOPLE WERE EATING DONKEY'S

HEADS AND PIGEON OR DOVE'S DUNG... THE PREACHER HAS GOOD NEWS...

ELISHA SAYS: DELIVERANCE IS COMING...

A. WILL YOU AGREE WITH THE PREACHER'S WORDS?

B. Tomorrow there will be food a plenty...

2 Kings 7:1 Then Elisha said, Hear ye the word of the Lord; Thus saith the Lord, To morrow

about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley

for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.

C. THERE IS ALWAYS NEGATIVE --- DOOMS DAYERS...

[2] Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, if the

Lord would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it

with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.

D. WITH WHOM WILL YOU AGREE: THE NEGATIVE? THE DELIVERANCE CROWD...

E. WILL YOU DIE HUNGRY WITH PLENTY OF FOOD BEFORE YOU?

2 Kings 7:19 And that lord answered the man of God, and said, Now, behold, if the Lord should

make windows in heaven, might such a thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with

thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.

[20] And so it fell out unto him: for the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died.

III. TAKE HEED: THE SPECTATOR DISAGREEMENT SPIRIT, THAT BREEDS CRITICAL

JUDGMENTS IS DANGEROUS...

THERE ARE THOSE THAT WILL NOT AGREE AND MAKE FUN OF SPIRITUAL ISSUES...

A HUSBAND AND WIFE DISAGREE OVER WORSHIP...

A. WORSHIP SHOULD BE A FAMILY AGREEMENT ISSUE...

2 Samuel 6:14 And David danced before the Lord with all his might; and David was girded with a

linen ephod.

B. FOR SOME REASON DAVID'S WIFE DID NOT JOIN IN THE WORSHIP...

C. IF YOU DO NOT WORSHIP --- YOU WILL HAVE A CRITICAL --- JUDGMENTAL SPIIRIT...

2 Samuel 6:16 And as the ark of the Lord came into the city of David, Michal Saul's daughter

looked through a window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the Lord; and she

despised him in her heart.

D. DAVID WAS HURT BY THIS JUDGMENTAL SPIRIT...

IF MICHAL HAD BEEN THERE MAYBE SHE WOULD HAVE DANCED BEFORE THE LORD...
