(Notes taken from Service)

The word of God emphasize the battle of Israel on this chapter. The reason they were defeated because they counted the numbers their trops and God was upset as He doesn't want the Israelites to trust in numbers. God want us to trust in Him only. With a little God can do a lot. He chooses the weak to lead the strong. The power doesn't come from us but from God. God wants us to trust in Him completely. The fear of the Lord is the Beginning of Wisdom. The fool will say "I don't need the wisdom of God I have my own wisdom". Our trust is in the Lord. God wants us to surrender to Him whole heartedly. Trauma and problem in the past is like a time bomb if you don't give it to Jesus completely. The enemy will always come after us, that it is important to cast it all out to Jesus. Remember that we are capable of doing anything if we depend to God. Make sure that the word of God move you in order to move someone else. Allow God to speak to you. Do not depend

We believe by the blood of Jesus through faith. The blood will continue to protect us. And keep us from Satan attack. What is the difference between condemnation and conviction? Condemnation - satan is pointing in your heart trying to discourage you not to serve. Conviction - pointing fingers gently to make you repent and serve God. Romans 8:33-38 33 Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. 34 Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36 As it is written: "For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered." 37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neit

We must be aware that Jesus already defeated our enemy. And we have won the battle. The woman in Revelation 12 is the nation of Israel. John 8:44 You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. God will not tempt you but He will protect you from Satan if you just let Him. As Christians even if we are successful Satan will do everything to destroy you but make sure you know that Jesus already defeated Satan. Ezekiel 28:12-19 (The description of satan.) 12 "Son of man, take up a lament concerning the king of Tyre and say to him: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: " 'You were the model of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty. 13 You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz and emeral

Imitate means to duplicate just like a photocopy. As Christians we need to imitate Jesus and all that are pleasing in His eyes. In our chapter for tonight 1 Chronicles 5, Reuben the first born of Israel defiled his father's marriage and it was given to Joseph. Leviticus 18:8 "Do not have sexual relations with your father's wife; that would dishonor your father." Because of that fact, Reuben was not listed as the first born in genealogical record in accordance with his birthright. Micah 5:2 "But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are small among the clans of Judah, out of you will come for me one who will be ruler over Israel, whose origins are from of old, from ancient times." It was prophesize that the the savior will come in tribe of Judah. If we focus in our life's problems and temptations we will get destructed in our Christian walk. People these days worship money more than heavenly things. When we are in the middle of the b

(The two witnesses Moses and Elijah) Though Jesus was crown to be the King of the world He didn't claim it. Satan rules the kingdom of the world. But God is in control and we need to know and understand that He reigns. Exodus 15:18 The LORD will reign for ever and ever." Almighty means omnipotent, all power, the great I am Jesus rules and reign in our lives we need to know that He will judge and reward us accordingly. What is righteous indignation? Remember Jesus in the Temple when He was upset to the vendors - that was the righteous indignation. But if you were upset because someone talked badly about you then that is a sin. Hebrews 9:27 Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, Who was the destroyer of the Earth? Satan and the unbelievers who follows the things of this world. Be vigilant and be careful with satan as he can devour and eat us (1 john greater is he who is in your. . .) Follow the example of Christ and Depend in t

Gentiles - are those who have no relationship with the Lord. Sackcloth- represent humility. We need to have humility to be used by God, used our knowledge for His glory and not to boast yourself. God use us for His grace not because of our background. Olive Tree - figurative language means the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Charismania - is when you are filled with the Holy Spirit and have charisma to minister. - Elija never died brought up in heaven. 2 Kings 2:11 As they were walking along and talking together, suddenly a chariot of fire and horses of fire appeared and separated the two of them, and Elijah went up to heaven in a whirlwind. You become what you think. If you keep on thinking of this worldly things then it will hinder you from growing spiritualy. Get the obvious, what is your priority in life? Where your treasure is there your heart also. Don't be rebellious with God. Being rebellious is always complaining. Don't complain and argue with God. Don't
