I have a little PDF booklet along with this podcast that gives you five steps to sowing and reaping sowing, planting and reaping seeds, the words being the seeds that are being planted in your life.

00:01:33.569 --> 00:01:37.120
All right, let's talk about being blameless.

00:01:37.120 --> 00:01:41.766
First, timothy, chapter 3, verse 2.

00:01:41.766 --> 00:01:49.016
This is true, saying If a man desires the office of a bishop, he desires a good work.

00:01:49.016 --> 00:02:01.263
A bishop must be blameless, the husband of one wife, diligent, sober of good behavior, given to hospitality, apt to teach, not given to wine.

00:02:01.263 --> 00:02:15.801
No striker, not greedy, a filthy looter, but patient, not a brawler, not covetous, one that rules well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity.

00:02:15.801 --> 00:02:20.265
For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?

00:02:20.265 --> 00:02:23.489
God First, timothy 3, 1 through 4.

00:02:24.850 --> 00:02:48.574
Now, before Paul's conversion, he was named Saul, and Saul, yet, breathing out, threatening and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest and desired of him letters to the synagogues that if he found any of this way to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound into Jerusalem.

00:02:48.574 --> 00:02:52.360
Acts 9, 1-2.

00:02:52.360 --> 00:03:09.368
Now, after Saul is converted, on his Damascus road experience, having therefore these promises dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

00:03:09.368 --> 00:03:40.152
Friend, when you ask Jesus Christ to come into your heart, your core, your center of life, where your spirit lives, he comes in and cleans out all the past and puts away your sins, away from a distance that as far as the east is from the west, and remembers him no more.

00:03:40.152 --> 00:03:46.585
He casts him into the sea of forgiveness over his back Psalm 103, verse 12,.

00:03:46.585 --> 00:03:48.651
Micah 7, verse 19.

00:03:50.020 --> 00:03:57.100
Because of a loving God, I am not a prisoner of my past, and God has a perfect plan and thoughts toward me.

00:03:57.100 --> 00:03:59.205
Jeremiah 29, 11.

00:03:59.205 --> 00:04:05.155
This thoughts and plans was planned out and laid out long, long, long before me.

00:04:05.155 --> 00:04:08.647
I just found out about it, 52 years ago.

00:04:08.647 --> 00:04:18.584
I confess my actions, thoughts and ways and confess my sins, and I do everything in my power to clear the slate of my life.

00:04:18.584 --> 00:04:26.365
I declare that the blood of Jesus has left me blameless of everything and I seek to be a living example of Jesus Christ.

00:04:26.365 --> 00:04:33.485
I endeavor to serve Christ with a pure heart and I know that Jesus wants to use me more than ever before.

00:04:33.485 --> 00:04:40.240
Therefore, I am a candidate to be used by God in a powerful way to affect change in my generation.

00:04:41.822 --> 00:04:46.762
Ask yourself is there any areas in your life that would hinder others from following you as a leader?

00:04:46.762 --> 00:04:49.110
It's time you became a leader.

00:04:49.110 --> 00:04:50.976
Are you a follower?

00:04:50.976 --> 00:04:55.718
Are you just reading the Bible and doing what it says, and living a good life and being a follower?

00:04:55.718 --> 00:05:02.550
The body of Christ needs leaders, needs people who reading the Bible and doing what it says, and living a good life and being a follower.

00:05:02.550 --> 00:05:05.375
The body of Christ needs leaders, needs people who know the scripture and gets in there.

00:05:05.375 --> 00:05:09.863
We have a saying in aviation called a good pilot is always learning.

00:05:09.863 --> 00:05:16.800
Well, a good anybody is always learning, but after a while all that knowledge has got to go to use.

00:05:16.821 --> 00:05:32.343
I counted up yesterday and today at least 19 Bibles in my office, some interlinear, some Hebrew, some Greek, some translation, some paraphrasing, some just opinionated.

00:05:32.343 --> 00:05:36.543
And anyway, you study and study, and study.

00:05:36.543 --> 00:05:39.377
And you know, in this country we study and study and study.

00:05:39.377 --> 00:05:48.523
And we know the Bible, we read the Bible, we memorize the verses, but they don't get from our heads down into our hearts where they can affect our lifestyle.

00:05:48.523 --> 00:05:54.661
Jesus said all power in heaven and earth been given unto me, and I give it unto you.

00:05:54.661 --> 00:06:03.218
Are you to the point where you can walk out in the middle of the street and stop a funeral procession and raise the person from the dead Jesus did.

00:06:03.218 --> 00:06:09.641
Jesus said All authority in heaven and earth has been given unto me, and I in turn give it unto you.

00:06:09.641 --> 00:06:24.961
Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, and these signs shall follow them that believe In my name.

00:06:24.961 --> 00:06:25.663
They shall cast out demons.

00:06:25.663 --> 00:06:26.406
They shall tread on serpents.

00:06:26.406 --> 00:06:28.153
They shall drink any deadly thing that shall not harm them.

00:06:28.153 --> 00:06:32.862
They shall heal the leper, raise the dead and bring people into the kingdom of God.

00:06:33.742 --> 00:06:43.423
Oh man, what an active lifestyle that we need to be living, and because of fear, we have a tendency to draw back and not go out.

00:06:43.423 --> 00:06:45.668
You see somebody sick.

00:06:45.668 --> 00:06:47.899
Don't pray for them in secret.

00:06:47.899 --> 00:06:52.817
Go over and lay your hands on them, with their permission, of course, and pray for them.

00:06:52.817 --> 00:06:55.964
If somebody says I need prayer, pray for them right there.

00:06:55.964 --> 00:07:15.036
Right there and then, and pray for a healing, pray for a miracle, pray that something gets done, pray that the Holy Spirit comes in and acts and does a work in their life and they give their hearts to Jesus Christ or rededicate their life to Jesus Christ and get back, or, better yet, they even get healed, then rededicate their life.

00:07:17.521 --> 00:07:22.007
Ask yourself is there any area in your life that would hinder others from following you as a leader?

00:07:22.007 --> 00:07:26.615
How about?

00:07:26.615 --> 00:07:29.721
Are there any areas in your life that would hinder people from following you, period?

00:07:29.721 --> 00:07:30.322
If so, what did you do to?

00:07:30.322 --> 00:07:34.247
What did you believe the Holy Spirit would have you do to make it right?

00:07:36.774 --> 00:07:40.903
Well, the first thing you need to do is repent and forgive that person, whether right or wrong.

00:07:40.903 --> 00:07:44.940
You need to forgive them and hold no grudge against them, absolutely no grudge.

00:07:44.940 --> 00:07:50.966
I don't care if you're at fault, I don't care if you're in the right, I don't care if it's cemented, I don't care what it is.

00:07:50.966 --> 00:07:52.711
Forgive the person.

00:07:52.711 --> 00:07:59.048
Forgive yourself before you ask God to forgive you your sins and cleanse you of all unrighteousness.

00:07:59.048 --> 00:08:01.221
You're not freeing up your enemy.

00:08:01.221 --> 00:08:03.403
You're not freeing up the person that betrayed you.

00:08:03.403 --> 00:08:06.665
You're not freeing up the person that treated you wrong.

00:08:06.665 --> 00:08:16.045
You're freeing up yourself, and that person cannot live in your brain rent-free anymore after you free yourself by getting rid of that grudge.

00:08:16.706 --> 00:08:26.757
I held a grudge for several years and what a waste of time, what a waste of time it was.

00:08:26.757 --> 00:08:27.199
And it was so silly.

00:08:27.199 --> 00:08:29.425
And the person that I was holding the grudge against didn't even know it.

00:08:29.425 --> 00:08:30.367
Didn't even know it.

00:08:30.367 --> 00:08:37.548
And when I gave up and forgave him, it took about a year to get him out of my mind, but now I can't even remember his name.

00:08:37.548 --> 00:08:41.864
Yeah well, I'm gonna forgive, but I'm not gonna forget.

00:08:41.864 --> 00:08:43.988
And it don't work that way, folks.

00:08:43.988 --> 00:08:45.961
You don't call the shot in this game.

00:08:45.961 --> 00:08:54.183
Only the holy spirit does and he says forgive and turn those people over to the lord and free yourself up.

00:08:55.769 --> 00:08:57.697
Have you been holding a grudge against someone?

00:08:57.697 --> 00:09:04.625
Do you continue to hold them as prisoners to the to their past behaviors, or have you released them from that judgment?

00:09:04.625 --> 00:09:08.451
Have you set yourself free by forgiving them as well?

00:09:08.451 --> 00:09:12.424
I hope so, but, by the way, there's some of the lord.

00:09:12.424 --> 00:09:17.586
Holy spirit just spoke to me and said there's somebody in this audience that's dealing with cancer.

00:09:17.626 --> 00:09:19.734
I pray for you right now in the name of Jesus.

00:09:19.734 --> 00:09:21.767
Be healed, cancer, go away.

00:09:21.767 --> 00:09:27.116
You'll not have any dominion or power or anything over me at all.

00:09:27.116 --> 00:09:28.578
Absolutely not.

00:09:28.578 --> 00:09:31.311
I live and walk in divine health and prosperity.

00:09:31.311 --> 00:09:33.957
Everything I set in my hand to do prospers.

00:09:33.957 --> 00:09:35.571
I am more than a conqueror.

00:09:35.571 --> 00:09:37.919
Through Jesus Christ, I can do all things.

00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:39.625
Through Jesus Christ, who gives me strength.

00:09:39.625 --> 00:09:42.109
In him, I live and move and have my being.

00:09:42.109 --> 00:09:42.750
Everything I do all things.

00:09:42.750 --> 00:09:43.711
Through Jesus Christ, who gives me strength.

00:09:43.711 --> 00:09:44.552
In him, I live and move and have my being.

00:09:44.552 --> 00:09:45.432
Everything I set my hand to do prospers.

00:09:45.432 --> 00:09:46.114
Everything.

00:09:46.114 --> 00:09:54.729
Every word that I speak is a blessing, is a word of healing, is a word of completeness.

00:09:54.729 --> 00:09:55.110
From God Almighty.

00:09:55.110 --> 00:10:00.153
