TALITHA CUMI… IT IS TIME TO GET UP!

By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com (Check out Wade Hughes on YouTube) (Two part lesson)

TALITHA CUMI: (Tal –e –tha CUE- me,)

GOD ARISE IS IN THE BIBLE 23 TIMES. ARISE IS IN THE BIBLE 256 TIMES… THERE MAY BE A PROBLEM WITH US HEARING THIS CALL?

THERE IS A TIME WHERE WE MUST TAKE THE POWER OR OPPORTUNITY THAT IS BEFORE US… THERE IS A TERM OF A DEGREE OF HONOR. (TAL-E-THA CUE-ME)

** There is a term of endearment and a honored motto in ARAMAIC in history TALITHA CUMI. ( Tal – e --tha CUE – ME)

TALITHA CAN MEAN LITTLE LAMB (JESUS.) When Jesus said TALITHA CUMI he takes the girl by the hand in compassion and gentleness. JESUS SAYS: MY LITTLE --- LAMB IT IS TIME TO GET UP… and then Jesus restores life into her body.

Mark 5:39 And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth. 40 And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying. 41 And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise. 42 And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.

TALITHA is a rare feminine name used meaning “LITTLE GIRL.” Jesus resurrected a dead child with the words:

**TALITHA CUMI… or TALITHA KUM or TALITHA KOUM.

The significance of the ARAMAIC WORDS RELEASE A GREAT OPPORTUNITY. GET UP, LITTLE GIRL… JESUS MAKES A BEAUTIFUL LESSON COME TO LIFE: MY LITTLE LAMB --- IT IS TIME TO GET UP…

*ARISE: to get up from kneeling, sitting or reclining; to come into being, to awaken and see; to come into existence; to move upwards; to become active; to ascend; to climb a mountain; to revive from the dead; to emerge out of poverty.

*RISE: to move up; to stand up; to emerge out of a problem; to get up, TO MOVE HIGHER AND HIGHER.

WE GO THROUGH SPIRITUAL SEASONS --- THERE IS A TIME TO ACCEPT AND ACKNOWLEDGE MY LOVE CALLS ME --- ARISE MY LOVE! IT IS TIME TO ARISE, GET UP!

Song of Songs 2:10 My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away. 11 For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone; 12 The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;

I think the Holy Spirit is calling God’s people. JESUS IS COMING BACK… FOR HIS LOVE, THE CHURCH. Can we hear the message? Hear what God is speaking to us! ARISE! Get up, my friend, and BE READY—come to THE FOOT OF THE CROSS! The season of change is before us. The cold times are over… NEW LIFE CAN SPRING FORTH. IT IS TIME TO WORSHIP AND SING PRAISE. IT IS TIME TO BE MORE FAITHFUL THAN EVER BEFORE.

WE HAVE A CHOICE! LAY IN THIS MESS OR ARISE! IT IS HIGH TIME TO AWAKE… WILL WE PICK UP THE BATON AND ADVANCE THE CALL TO ARISE? WHAT WILL BE OUR FIRST STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION? CAN THE LORD DEPEND ON OUR DECISIONS TO RUN…

Ephesians 5:14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.

Ephesians 5:14 (MSG) Wake up from your sleep, Climb out of your coffins; Christ will show you the light!

WILL WE PICK UP THE BATON AND ADVANCE THE CALL TO ARISE? ARE WE IGNITING THE LOST AND BACKSLIDDEN?

Hebrews 12:1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, 2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

38 LONG YEARS OF A CHRONIC PROBLEM: DO YOU WANT TO BE MADE WHOLE? WHAT DO YOU WANT MY FRIEND? QUIT MAKING EXCUSES: GET UP!

John 5:6 When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole? 7 The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me. 8 Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.

9 And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.

THIS HOPELESS MAN HAD TO MAKE THE DECISION, A CHOICE--- DO I KEEP LAYING HERE? There is no more excuses, if you want to you can GET UP and GET YOUR BED --- RISE UP… QUIT LAYING THERE!

THE BATTLE HAS BEEN LONG AND HARD… KING AHAB AND QUEEN JEZEBEL HAVE A DEAD OR ALIVE POSTER TO DESTROY THE PREACHER AND STOP GOD’S MESSAGE. DOOM, GLOOM, DESPAIR, DEPRESSION, DISCOURAGEMENT IS CRUSHING THE GOD CALLED PREACHER…

1 Kings 19:1 And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword. 2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger unto Elijah, saying, So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by to morrow about this time. 3 And when he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beersheba, which belongeth to Judah, and left his servant there.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? ARISE MY FRIEND. REST IF YOU MUST… YOU CAN’T RUN AWAY FROM YOUR PROBLEMS… GET UP AND EAT BY FAITH… ARISE! GOD’S PROVISIONS WILL SUSTAIN YOU… GET UP AND EAT! ARISE BY FAITH!

1 Kings 19: 4 But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers. 5 And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat. 6 And he looked, and, behold, there was a cake baken on the coals, and a cruse of water at his head. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again. 7 And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee. 8 And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.

IT IS HIGH TIME TO REACH OUT… STRETCH OUT THE WITHERED HAND… REACH OUT… IT IS TIME TO ARISE… WE MUST REFUSE THE NEGATIVE COMPLAINING, WHINING CROWDS AND ARISE TO GOD’S PLAN.

Mark 3:5 And when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other.

This man was more valuable to Jesus than the religious man made rules. ARISE!

I AM SEEKING GOD… BUT I AM LEAVING IN A RAGE… I AM ANGRY… ANGER CAN STOP US FROM ARISING… WE MIGHT HAVE TO ARISE AND REACH UP MORE THAN ONCE.WATER BAPTISM REPRESENTS DEATH, BURIAL AND RESURRECTION… 7 TIMES BIG BOY… ARISE 7 TIMES…

2 Kings 5:14 Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.

CONCLUSION: PETER IS IN GREAT DANGER… THE STORM RAGES HIGH. THE WIND AND THE WAVES ARE BOISTEROUS … PETER AND JESUS MADE CONTACT--- ARISE NOW BY FAITH… GRAB THE HAND OF JESUS.

Matthew 14:27 But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid. 28 And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. 29 And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. 30 But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me. 31 And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? 32 And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.

*LET: TO GIVE PERMISSION; NOT PREVENT OR FORBID; TO ALLOW; imperative—order, command; you decide; to give;

Psalm 68:1 Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him.

WE ARE WALKING IN CRITICAL TIMES. WILL WE ARISE? WILL WE ALLOW GOD TO ARISE? What will hinder us? WILL WE ARISE TO OUR CALL? GOD HELP US TO CONSENT AND ALLOW YOUR PLAN TO ARISE? GET REAL: GOD DESIRES TO ARISE BY THE POWER OF HIS HOLY SPIRIT. THE ISSUE IS NOT CAN GOD… THE ISSUE IS WILL WE RELEASE GOD’S PLAN TO ARISE… 23x’s God arises in the Bible but 256 x’s God asks us to ARISE…

Psalm 44:26 Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.

God we are asking you to help us arise. We seek you Lord to arise and come to our rescue.

Psalm 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
