Summary: you must know that you dont have to fight your battles, there is one who will go before you and break the jaw and shatter the teeth of the one who makes his threats to devour!

Broken jaws & shattered teeth

Psalm 3:5-8

5) I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord sustained me. 6) I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about. 7) Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly. 8) Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.

Psalm 58:6) Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O Lord.

Ill: Most of us are familiar with the children’s story of Little Red Riding Hood. But let me just re-cap it for everyone.

Little Red Riding Hood was a little girl who decided to pay her sick grandmother a visit.

But a big bad wolf gets there ahead of her, and gets rid of grandma so he can try and eat the little girl.

His plan is to trick Red Riding Hood by getting her close enough to pounce on her.

So he puts on grandma’s nightgown and cap and pretends to be the grandma.

Everything goes as planned, until Red Riding Hood makes a few astute observations. And the plan begins to unravel.

She looks at the wolf and says, "My, Grandma, what big eyes you have!" And the wolf answers, "All the better to see you with, my dear."

The she says, "My, Grandma, what big ears you have!" "All the better to hear you with, my dear!"

Then the girl says, "My, grandma, what big teeth you have!" At which the wolf replies, "All the better to eat you with, my dear," and lunges for Red Riding Hood. But Thankfully, the woodsman was there to her rescue her and kills the wolf.

Focus: I just wonder if there is anyone in the building today that has faced the wolf this week. Is there anyone that from an Easter Sunday until the next that has had an encounter with the big bad wolf ? if so then you are the ones that I've come to talk to today!!!!!

Text : Psalm 3:5) I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord sustained me. 6) I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about. 7) Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly. 8) Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people.

Psalm 58:6) Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O Lord.

While the wolf, the lion, or any other figure may have attacked you this week David said when the host of enemies, even 10k I don’t have to worry, because you are for me and with one swipe of your hand you will break the jaw and knock out the teeth of those who oppose me,

point: somebody in this building today needs not to leave this place the way they came, you barely made this morning, its time for you to let the Lord fight your battles, he break the jaw and knock out the teeth of your adversary, he just needs you to get out of the way!!

Today’s message will be short for the Lord has sent me to encourage you and in doing so it’s going to require some action on your part..

There are people under the sound of my voice that has listened to the voice of the enemy this week, some have given in, some have heard the spirit of deception and allowed the threats to lure them away. Some have heard the voice of false doctrine saying live any way you want to as long as it makes you happen which is a lie straight out of hell… its not about your will, its about his will and what make s him happy, and we have been commission to buy the truth and sell it not.

Can I tell you the more wars are sure to come, on the horizon right now it could happen. The son of perdition could step and it could all be over. Babies are being ask to have implants in their hands to be able to track and monitor them, yea if you r carnal and caught up in the world you’ll fall asleep just like the bible says.

Point: but the Lord has sent me here today with a spirit and authority to combat the force of hell, for his word has declared the kingdom of heaven suffers violence but the violent taketh by force, the lord has come to break the jaw and knock out the teeth of the enemy that troubles you, its time to get you r war clothes on, its time to shout and trust that the lord is still able to deleiever & it will come!!!!!!!!

I don't know if you've ever heard or spoken the phrase Getting your teeth knocked out, hopefully it's not been said to you nor you have said it, hopefully you've only heard it. The phrase indicates, that pain is about to be inflicted and that punishment is eminent, and there is going to be a consequence because of this action.

Getting your teeth knocked out doesn't seem to be a pleasant experience. Because if you get them knocked out.. It's going to change the way things move & operate.....

Point: The devil will no longer be able to rule or control your circumstances when God knocks put the devils teeth, you will now begin to see prayer for what it is and

what is does, just stay where you're at keep doing what you've been doing, the lord is going to fight your battles he will break the jaw and knock out the teeth of your adversary!

When jaws are broken and teeth are knocked out, things you've desired before will change, your taste will change, what you can and can't eat will change...

Point: What I'm preaching today is Satan has desired to have you that he may sift you, and there have been days you thought the devil was gonna win, but the Lord has sent me this morning to tell you just Like he did for Israel, the enemy you see today you will see no more, because ima bout to break the jaw and knock out the teeth of that advesary that has haunted you and today you will leave and walk in victory like you’ve never known!!

*Somebody needs to believe what I'm preaching right now…in order for the word to be effective on your life you must accept and believe it or else it will fall on stoney ground… james 1: 22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:

24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.

25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

Point: what I'm preaching today is you can take this word and allow it to mean something this morning and let it serve as your hope and get up out of your mess, or you can just run the motions and say you’ve been to church and still allow the enemy to be in control ! but I believe there is someone in this building, that willing to allow God to step in and take a swing and when he does he will break the jaw and knock out the teeth of the devil that hinders your walk with God!!

When you jaw is broken and teeth are knocked out you want be able to open your mouth or speak correctly, on other words the speech will change.

Daniel 6:21Then said Daniel unto the king, O king, live for ever. 22My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt. 23 Then was the king exceeding glad for him, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he believed in his God.

When they threw Daniel in that lion dens, that lion that had roared so fiercely, suddenly had lock jaw, now all he could do was grunt, no longer could he growl! Why because the Lord of heaven reached down and slapped that lion and broke his jaw knocked out his teeth because the lord will protect those that belong to him....

Point: I'm trying to tell someone today that the lion that has held you inside your prison walls, the one who has held you back because of fear, after today you will no

longer hear the growl but only a grunt, and it will serve as a reminder, that's what happens when the lord breaks the jaw and knocked out the teeth of your adversary!,,,

closing:

nkjv says in ps 3…1) Lord, how they have increased who trouble me! Many are they who rise up against me. 2) Many are they who say of me,“There is no help for him in God.” Selah 3) But You, O Lord, are a shield for me, My glory and the One who lifts up my head. 4) I cried to the Lord with my voice, And He heard me from His holy hill. Selah 5) I lay down and slept; I awoke, for the Lord sustained me. 6) I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people Who have set themselves against me all around. 7) Arise, O Lord; Save me, O my God! For You have struck all my enemies on the cheekbone; You have broken the teeth of the ungodly. 8) Salvation belongs to the Lord. Your blessing is upon Your people. Selah

Point: Somebody should be rejoicing this morning knowing that the Lord is on your side, knowing that things are about to change. No more threats, no more fear, no more backing up, retreating or living in dismay, today the adversary has it coming and he don't even know it!,,,you ought to shout unto GOD with a voice of victory right now, if you want it, and move out in worship because you believe It, because if you dont believe it, then you keep hearing the growl instead of the grunt!

Ill: Many years ago a submarine was rammed by another ship and quickly sank. Despite many efforts by many ships to rescue the crew it was feared their oxygen would run out long before anyone could get to them. Hours into the desperate tragedy the sonar men listening for any indication of life on the crippled sub heard a tapping, suddenly realizing it was the dots and dashes of Morse code. The question came slowly: "is... there... any... hope?"

I'm preaching to folks today that are wondering if there is any hope. For the teeth of an adversary has caused many to waiver!

Psalm 3:7NLT Arise, O Lord! Rescue me, my God! Slap all my enemies in the face! Shatter the teeth of the wicked!

Matthew Henry Commentary: Disabled them to do the mischief they intended, for he had broken their teeth.

Point: “I can testify & tell you I’ve never asks the Lord to slap my enemies in the face!” but today would be good day for someone to start doing just that, if you’re tired of being sick & tired then tell the Lord to slap your enemy, & it will break the jaw knock out his teeth, and then & the devil will be reminded of who your daddy is and who is in control!

1peter 5:8 be sober be vigilant because your adversary the devil walketh about seeking whom he may devour.

Luke 22:31 satan hath desired to have you that he may sift you as wheat

We all know that a lion sifts nothing..every where in the N.T. you see teeth mentioned its follow by nashing, nawing that explains the truest meaning of what teeth will do.

So I thought there is 1 of two things that can be derived from these 2 scrpitures. 1 is either the devil is the size of a mouse and bears no characteristics of what he potrays. Or either he appears and displays that he is a lion, all of his attributes attest that he, but somewhere in the midst of the turmoil, a great hand from out of heaven reached down, and slapped the lion in the mouth and broke his jaw & shattered his teeth, and he can no longer nash and naw he can only sift..

Point: It happened at Calvary, OH death where is thy sting oh grave where is thy victory. I'm preaching today the enemy is as a roaring lion, he looks like a lion, but he bite is gone for the Lord has shut his mouth!!!
