*SERMON*
Scripture: Hebrews:11 1,6 verse
Text: Faith That Pleases God……….
We find here that this Epistle is unknown, Many have speculated but there is no certainly. Hebrews is attributed to Paul. This book has been called the Fifth Gospel. The Four describe Christ ministry in Heaven at God’s right Hand.
We as Christians have that which is Better.Thekey word in this book of Hebrews is the word Better . Somebody look up towards heaven and say Lord make me Better. Because I want to go higher In you lord lord I know that I can’t change where I’ve been but I show can change where I’m going Lord make me better for I here the bible says “ Create in me a Clean heart oh God and Renew a Right spirit within me” Elbow somebody and say I want to be Renewed”
Now In the Book Of Hebrews Is addressed to encourage them to have a deeper committed relationship with Christ.I don’t know about you all but my is made up that Im going to have deeper commited with christ. I believe that it was the Apostle Paul LORD I want to know you I want to know you in the Fellowships of your Sufferings and I want to know you in the Power of your Resurrection. And that’s the problem today Everybody is Singing About Christ but do you Really Know Him. Everybody is Playing for the Lord but do you Know Him. Everybody is Preaching about Christ but do you Really Know the Man that was Wounded for our Transgression, Bruised for our Inquity and the Chestisment of our Peace is upon him. Elbow somebody and say “Do you Really know him.”
Now in the book of Hebrews 11& 6verse we find here the word Faith which means to be certain about things we cannot see or to trust someone because of who he or she is.
Every thing we do in life is done by faith in something. God simply wants us to use that same faith to believe in His Word. God wants us to be positive of what we ask for as it being ours even before we receive it. In Other words God wants us to Trust Him to Deliver, Trust Him to Saved, Trust Him to Heal Trust Him to Bless.
Lets say if you were to order from a Particular Catalog and you Trust the Company to Deliver the Goods to You. And the Question you would now ask yourself Is well why do I Trust Them? Well you trust them because they have been in Business for 100 years. And They are known very well.And that kind of puzzles me because God created the World and all things Therein and He has been in Business Since the Beginning of Time, and Thousands of Years have Passed and Yet Still we have Trouble Trusting in Him. We still have Trouble Trusting in God Too meet our needs, We still have Trouble Trusting in God To Bring Us Out We Still have Trouble Trusting In God to Save Our Children. Oh if the Saints we Learn how to Trust in The Lord Because He Will Never Let You Down. For it’s time to start placing that same Faith in God as we place in the World. It’s time to give God the trust that He deserves.
Elbow somebody and say “Give God What He Deserves”
Well Preacher what do we gain by having Faith that Pleases God? We gain health, prosperity, success, Confidence, Salvation; we gain the entire Kingdom of God. Mark 11:23 tells us that we will have what we believe and speak. "Mark 11:23 For verily I say unto you, That Whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith." That is believing before receiving. We must have faith to please God. So now Preacher how can I get this faith that pleases God?
By the Word of God when we hear the Word Of God we gain faith. The spoken Word of God from our mouth is how we get the faith that pleases God. We can hear all the words and phrases that the world has to offer but until we learn how to hear the Word of God our faith will not grow. Well And how can we hear the Word of God unless we speak it. So it is by the spoken Word of God that help us develop faith.Yes I Can Stay Saved YES I CAN BE DELIVER YES I CAN OVER COME THE DEVIL, YES I WILL HAVE PEACE IN MY HOME PEACE ON MY JOD PEACE IN MY KIDS NO I WILL NOT GO CRAZY NO I WILL NOT JUMP OFF A BRIDGE NO I WILL NOT CURSE NOBODY OUT, BUT I WILL HAVE PEACE IN MY MIND BECAUSE SO SAID THAT YOU WILL KEEP MY MIND IN PERFECT PEACE WHO’S MIND IS STAY ON YOU.
