Kept By The Power Of God part 2

Psa. 121:1: I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

2 My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.



3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.



And...



:5:  The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.

• Thy keeper
  
• Thy protector-He is on thy right hand
  

6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.



7 The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

• He will guard you from all evil
  
• He shall protect thy life
  

8 The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.



Psa. 107:2:  Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;



Psa. 91:1: He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.



2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.



3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.



4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.






Isa. 66:1: Thus saith the Lord, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?



2 For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the Lord: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.

• Will I look around for the one who is humble and contrite in Spirit, who
  trembles at my word.
  
• One who stands in awe of all I say
  
• One who cares anxiously for My Word.
  

Psa. 17:8: Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,



Prov. 7:2: Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.



3 Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.



Isa. 26:3: Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.



John 17:12: (Prayer Jesus prayed before he went to the cross)  While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.



Reference scriptures: Acts 1:20, Isa. 109:8

II Tim. 1:11: Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.



12 For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.

Kept By The Power of God, part 1

From the teaching 6/9/2012

Kept By The Power Of God

Job 1:1: There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.

2 And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters.



Eschewed (defined):

• shunned
  
• abstained from every thing evil
  
• set his face against wrong doing
  
• 
  

Uz: The land of Uz was located South of Edom and West of Arabia,
extending to the border of Chaldea. In those days it could have
comprised of even Arabia-Petra itself.


3 His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east.



4 And his sons went and feasted in their houses, every one his day; and sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.



5 And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.



6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them.



7 And the Lord said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.



8 And the Lord said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?



9 Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?



10 Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.



Hedge (defined):

• shut in for protection
  
• fence
  
• hedged him safely in
  
• put a wall about him
  

11 But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.



12 And the Lord said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the Lord.



13 And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:



14 And there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them:



15 And the Sabeans fell upon them, and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.



16 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.



17 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made out three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have carried them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.



18 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:



19 And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.



20 Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped,



21 And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: theLord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.



22 In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.

Job 2:5:  But put forth thine hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face.

6 And the Lord said unto Satan, Behold, he is in thine hand; but save his life.



7 So went Satan forth from the presence of the Lord, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.



8 And he took him a potsherd to scrape himself withal; and he sat down among the ashes.



Potsherd (defined): A broken piece of pottery



9 Then said his wife unto him, Dost thou still retain thine integrity? curse God, and die.

Job 13:15: Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.

Job 42:10: And the Lord turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the Lordgave Job twice as much as he had before.

11 Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that the Lord had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an earring of gold.



12 So the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.



13 He had also seven sons and three daughters.



14 And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch.



15 And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.



16 After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.



17 So Job died, being old and full of days.



I John 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

19 For Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet thereat:



20 When they go into the tabernacle of the congregation, they shall wash with water, that they die not; or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn offering made by fire unto the Lord:



21 So they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they die not: and it shall be a statute for ever to them, even to him and to his seed throughout their generations.

If The Foundations Be Destroyed

From the teaching 5/26/2012

If The Foundations

Be Destroyed

Psa. 11:3: If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?

Eph. 2:20: And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

Jonah 3:1: And the word of the Lord came unto Jonah the second time, saying,

2 Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee.



3 So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the Lord. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city of three days' journey.



4 And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.



5 So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.



Mt.28:18: And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.



19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:



20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.



Acts 2:12: And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?



13 Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine.
14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words:



15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day.



16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;



and...



:41: Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.



Shadow of Peter



Acts 5:14: And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)



15 Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.



16 There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.















Peter raised Tabitha



Acts 9:36:  Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.



37 And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.
38 And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them.



39 Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.



40 But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up.



41 And he gave her his hand, and lifted her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive.



In Conclusion



I Corth. 3:10:According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.

The Word

God tells him

Jonah 3:1: And the word of the Lord came unto Jonah the second time, saying,

2 Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee.



Arise (defined):

• get up

Bid (defined):

1. that I command thee
   
2. that I declare
   
3. that I give
   
4. that I say
   
5. that I pronounce
   

3 So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the Lord. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city of three days' journey.



4 And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.



5 So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.



And...



And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.












Moses



Exodus 4:10: And Moses said unto the Lord, O my Lord, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue.



11 And the Lord said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? or who maketh the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the Lord?



12 Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt say.



13 And he said, O my Lord, send, I pray thee, by the hand of him whom thou wilt send.



14 And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Moses, and he said, Is not Aaron the Levite thy brother? I know that he can speak well. And also, behold, he cometh forth to meet thee: and when he seeth thee, he will be glad in his heart.



15 And thou shalt speak unto him, and put words in his mouth: and I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what ye shall do.















John The Baptist



Matt. 3:1: In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea,



2 And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.



3 For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.



4 And the same John had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.



5 Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round about Jordan,



6 And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.









Jesus



Luke 4:16: And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.



17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,



18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,






anointed (defined):

• consecrated
  
• set apart
  

19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.



Paul's Call



Rom. 10:13:  For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.



14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?



15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

Apostle Paul's First Letter to The

Corinthians part VII b

I Corth 7:14:  For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.

a. For perhaps the husband who isn't a Christina may become a Christian

with the help of his Christian wife.

b. Otherwise if a family separates, the children might never come to

know the Lord. But, for a family to stay together, may in God's plan,

result in the children's salvation.

c. It also refers to the Spiritual influence and Power the Christian

holds over the unbelieving companion.

15 But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.



a. In such cases the Christian brother or sister is not tied to marriage
for God intended we live together in peace.



16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?



a. You may be your spouses salvation through your influence
as a Christian.



17 But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all churches.



18 Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.
19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.



20 Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called.



21 Art thou called being a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather.
a. Were you a slave when you heard the call? Or a bond-servant?
b. If you gain your freedom, make the most of your present
condition instead.



22 For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ's servant.



23 Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.



a. You have been bought and paid for.
b. Do not let yourselves become slaves of men.



24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God.



25 Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful.



a. Now as far as young, unmarried women are concerned, I must
confess I have no direct command from God.
b. Nevertheless, I give you my considered opinion as one who is
I think, to be trusted after all my experience of God's mercy.



26 I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, I say, that it is good for a man so to be.



a. I think then that in view of the time of suffering that has now
come upon us, it would be best for you to remain as you are.
27 Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.



28 But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.



a. Yet I do believe that those who take this step are bound to find
the married state an extra burden in these crucial days, and I should
like you to be as unencumbered as possible.



29 But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;



30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;



31 And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.



a. And those that are busy with worldly affairs, must not be
overly absorbed in them.



32 But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:



33 But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.



a. A married man has to think about his responsibilities, here on earth,
so his devotion is divided.



34 There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
35 And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.



a. I say this for your benefit, I am not trying to keep you from
marrying.
b. So that your service to God may be as far as possibly free from
worldly distractions.



36 But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.



a. Talking about his Virgin Daughter, not his Virgin Sweetheart.



In the early times among both Jews and Christians, the
daughters were wholly in the power of their fathers, so that he
might give them in marriage or bind them to perpetual virginity.
If the father had dedicated his daughter to perpetual virginity,
and afterward found that she had her affections centered upon
a man, being strongly inclined to marry, he could change his
plans regarding virginity and give her in marriage at any time,
even after the flower of her age. He would not be committing
sin by changing his plans for her.



37 Nevertheless he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well.



a. If the Father finds it unnecessary to betroth his virgin daughter
because of her being inclined NOT to marry and wanting to
consecrate both body and spirit, then let him keep his daughter
from marriage.

38 So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth her not in marriage doeth better.



a. This proves that it is a father who gives or does not give his
virgin daughter in marriage.



39 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.






40 But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of God.



a. I think, I am here expressing not only my opinion, but, The Will
of The Spirit of God as well.

Apostle Paul's Epistle to the Corintihians, part VII, teaching 1

From The Teaching Saturday, May 5, 2012

Apostle Paul's Epistle To The Corinthians, part VII

Part I

I Corth. 7:1: Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.

2 Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.



3 Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.



Due benevolence (Greek interprentation): Kindness, Good will,
conjuical duty.



Vs 4: The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.



5 Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.



6 But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment.(Paul is speaking by permission and not of commandment, because of his calling he is able to say these things.)



permission:

• I say this by way of concession, I am conceding, I am not
  

imposing a rule upon you.

• But, as I say this, I am yielding to you, not ordering you.
  

vs. 7: For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.



8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, it is good for them if they abide even as I.
Paul was unmarried



9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.



Burn:(explained):

• It is better to marry than to be aflame with passion
  
• Have self control, have command of thy passions and
  appetites.
  

vs. 10:  And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband:



11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.



The Pharisees tried to trick/test Jesus in Matthew 9:3: The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?



4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,



5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?



6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
7 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?



8 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.



9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.



10 His disciples say unto him, If the case of the man be so with his wife, it is not good to marry.



11 But he said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying, save they to whom it is given.



12 For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.



Jesus referred to the Law of Moses in his answer: Dt. 24:1:When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house.



2 And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be another man's wife.



3 And if the latter husband hate her, and write her a bill of divorcement, and giveth it in her hand, and sendeth her out of his house; or if the latter husband die, which took her to be his wife;



4 Her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before the Lord: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which the Lord thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
5 When a man hath taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war, neither shall he be charged with any business: but he shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer up his wife which he hath taken.



Another reference and reason is found in Dt. 24:1: And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.



24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.



I Corth 7:12: But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away. (Paul is not speaking to the world, they will do what they want to do, but the church needs this.)

• To the rest of the people, I myself would say-though the Lord himself
  had said nothing about it.
  
• For a brother who has a non Christian wife and she pleased to dwell
  with him, let him not leave.
  

13 And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.
