Due to the large amount of sermons and topics that appear on this site I feel it is necessary to post this disclaimer on all sermons posted. my sermon ideas and illustrations are often taken from many sources including those at Sermoncentral.com, there could be instances where other minister’s wording is used, or wording similar. I am not trying to steal anything from anyone else, just trying to help others proclaim the gospel. my sermons are not copyrighted and may be used or preached freely. May God richly bless you as you read these words. It is my sincere desire that all who read them may be enriched. All scriptures quoted in these sermons are copied and quoted from the Authorized King James Version of the Holy Bible.
He'll Do It Again
turn with me to
Mal 3:6 - For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
then over to
James 1:17 - Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
then finally to
Num 23:19 - God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
Some people believe that God is like a genie in a bottle. All you get is two or three good wises out of him, so you had better pick them wisely. After your wishes are gone he is once again powerless.
Some people treat God like a vending machine. You just keep picking the thing that you want from God and push that button until the machine is empty, and then It’s all over.
Some people treat God like he is able to handle little problems but the big problems we had better handle on our own.
Some people treat God like he is a weak and puny God and not able to do very much at all.
But I want to preach to you today is that he is well able to meet your needs right now!
∑ his arm is not short
∑ his ear is not deaf
∑ he is not slack concerning his promise
∑ his promises are true and sure
∑ his love is far reaching
∑ his power has not dried up
∑ his word is still true
When you need him he will be there and what he has done in the past he can do it again!
He is not a vending machine or a genie in a bottle. He is not a weak and puny God. But he is God almighty. He is God all by himself. He said in his word that “I am God and I change not”.
If he did it for someone else he can do it for you.
If he did it before he can do it again.
I. The Bible proves this idea that he can do it again.
in many different times and ways
lets look at just a few
PROVIDING A SUPPLY OF OIL
1 Kings 17:13-16 And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son. For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth. And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days. And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Elijah.
2 Kings 4:1-7 Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the LORD: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen. And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil. Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbors, even empty vessels; borrow not a few. And when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that which is full. So she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons, who brought the vessels to her; and she poured out. And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed. Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest.
