All About You Jesus I'm coming back to the Heart of Worship when it's all about you it's all about you Jesus I'm sorry Lord for the things I've made it when it's all about you it's all about you Jesus Church let's pray church is all about Jesus it's all about him today is the Sunday day of Resurrection our Lord Jesus [Music] Christ is thank you Jesus it's all about you and says holy spirit continue to guide us you see every heart on this place Lord Jesus you see the desire we want to worship you you see the deeper desire Lord Jesus to be right with you Allah foreign [Music] [Music] praise God dear Church it is an honor and privilege to be in Lord's house today and so it's nice to see all of you here today in a place where we make it all about Jesus and my word today is all about Jesus I would like to start my message off with a little short story it's about a man So eventually I was given a key a bunch of keys on a on a on a ring uh and these keys unlock anything he would want in the whole world you can go to the White House the Pentagon to the banks treasury wherever you know whatever wherever his heart would desire and so this man would go around and tell his friends hey I have these Keys you know and he was very you know confident in himself as well that he's you know that he has access to all of these places and all of these things and so but he never actually used the keys he never actually went and put the key into different key key locks and unlock different doors so I want to start the message off on that and I'm going to close with the conclusion to that yeah so my word today is about the fact that the gospel is not just in word but also in power um you know the word became flesh Christ Christ we heard that the Bible was the the word is the Bible but that word also became flesh and the flesh Jesus Christ walk the earth and and demonstrate or you could say manifested the kingdom of God in its fullness in and so the world I believe that the world in the church today the world and the church today um the world world you know they they don't need just good morals and good you know principles and values because it's all over no we have we have many even philosophers that change the wording a little bit but they just they use you know the teachings of Christ and just say it in their own way they can write philosophy [Music] so we know that there's access to these principles five steps to this do that do this self-help you know and even there's even spiritual ways you know not not through through Christ to you know so to speak have access to uh to the truth and so so the word the principles itself without the power to support it is not enough the word of God we here says that the letter is dead and spirit gives life right we also hear that when we read the word of God you can read it to read it like a book you know to read stories in the Bible and never actually experience it you never experience the word which is Christ himself in in the spirit amen and so my first point is that Jesus overcame sin and death and in Romans chapter 8 verses 1 and 2 we read the following it says there's therefore no condemnation in those who are in Christ Jesus who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the spirit for the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made us free from the law of sin and death foreign so at one point John the Baptist said Behold the Lamb of God who comes to take the sin of the world and so let me ask you this do you believe that he overcame sin and death that it no longer has a hold on us you know in Romans chapter 10 verses verses 10 and 11 it says for for the heart One Believes unto righteousness and with the mouth confesses unto salvation for the scripture says whoever believes on him will not be put to shame is and so we see that Christ overcame the guilt and the shame Associated to sin is and so we as Believers the fact that we are in Christ we don't have to dwell in the guilt and shame that leads to condemnation and so um in First Corinthians we also we also see uh in verses chapter 10 verses 14 and 15. he says for by one offering he has perfected forever those who are being Sanctified by the Holy Spirit also witnesses to us for after he said before First Corinthians chapter 50 or sorry yeah First Corinthians chapter 15 verse 56. sorry I think I got the wrong verse yeah I jumped ahead First Corinthians 15 56. and so it says this thing of this thing of death is sin and the power of sin is Law and then it says but things be to God who gives us Victory through our Lord Jesus Christ and so here we see again we have victory over sin through our faith in Jesus Christ and so again do we believe this you know Jesus overcame sin and death so that means that in all things we are more than conquerors in those who through him who loved us yes and so knowing this we see that God made all the provision needed for us as Believers to move for us to be able to walk in the fullness of Christ in the spirit and and for him to fulfill his work in US in Hebrews chapter 10 I won't say the the verses for time but it says for by one offering he has perfected forever those who are being Sanctified but the Holy Spirit also witnesses to us for after he said before this is my Covenant that I will make with them after those days says the Lord I will put my laws into their hearts and their minds I will write them and he adds their sins and Lawless Deeds I will remember no more now there is no remission for these and there is no longer an offering for sin so we see after Jesus has has fulfilled the requirement that offering for the sin sacrifice there is no longer an offering needed for that is in other words he he fulfilled everything that needed to be fulfilled in order for us to walk a life in victory over sin and and and death which is not eternal life I want to share an example of how he does this work in US for example let's let's say a person is dealing with lustful thoughts in the verse earlier I said I said uh right there was righteousness according to the law and righteousness which was found in Christ Jesus I want to draw a parallel to this example so and so we see that let's say this person is dealing with lustful thoughts and if he tries to overcome it with lot this is how it would work so they they tried let's say an attack comes thoughts come to their mind and they try to do everything they can to overcome those thoughts in the mind so the battle is always on a mind level and so the person tried to you know look for good teachings good you know principles five steps to overcome this or that and so they tried to do everything they can to force their mind not to think those things but righteousness that is found in Christ it says that he will give you he will give you a new heart no and I know for as an example from my own life he has now you picked us the way it works is is you actually begin to notice that those thoughts don't even come to your mind you're walking through life three weeks and you realize you spent those weeks just spending time with the Lord seeking him getting to know him his Holiness his righteousness you begin to realize truly the righteousness of God is in me it and you think but I didn't do anything to me all I did was abide in him and so the verses we read we also two of them have said that he sanctifies us and another verse said uh and those that are being Sanctified this work is in US and so if we're remaining in Him He Is sanctifying Us here's another example you see my shirt this is a linen shirt it wrinkles really easily you know I ironed it in the morning and I was so happy I'm like so clean so so smooth and I by the time I get out you know and start to about to walk out the door my wife looks at me she's like did you even iron your shirt and I was so upset I'm like are you kidding me like I I ironed it like I spent even extra time because I know it's a linen shirts as you look at me right now and I went back in the room or ironed it again and so this example literally came to me for this word this morning it's the same way with us we try we do everything we can we apply all the right principles even if we take it from the word of God and for some reason it's not working this is because the gospel is not in word only but in power uh the gospel the gospel Christ the revelation of Christ is not just in word but in power foreign adulterous woman and and the the Pharisees describes they brought this adulterous woman threw her in front of him and said she needs to be stoned to death for sure and I find it interesting I read it so many times and I never I never noticed this point yeah he says those of you that are without sin cast the first stone we know that she can come they dropped their Stones they left we read a verse there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus Christ watch this she was guilty she did wrong Jesus asks her where are those that condemn you those who did it she probably looked around no one was there and the one that was righteous the one that was holy the one that was just and was able to execute that punishment he said neither do I because Jesus wants to take away your condemnation but he wants it to be your motivation to go and sin no more when he did that that revelation of Grace in that moment that word that was spoken gave her the power to go and sin no more this is what the New Covenant of Grace does for us and imagine this this was before Christ fulfilled the sacrifice he revealed this is how much more us knowing than what he did for us should we understand these principles Grace changes the motivation that because of what should have happened to you on the basis of his love for us and so we we know with knowing this we see that everything everything is found in Him First Corinthians chapter 1 verse 30 it says but of him you are in Christ Jesus who became the wisdom from God and righteousness and sanctification and Redemption as as it is written he who glories let him glory in him um and so the word is life to those who find it but the word that became flesh that walked in the fullness and the power of God we also have access to that is more than ever before is in need of that is in Romans chapter 10 verses 3 and 4 we see it says Apostle Paul says for they being ignorant of God's righteousness and seeking to establish their own righteousness not submitted to the righteousness of God for Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to those that believe in English let me ask you guys this is can you rely on yourselves to remain faithful to Christ in the end meaning solely relying on your own strength and power that's meaning meaning his standards of Holiness righteousness Perfection I'm sure we all can admit that out of Our Own Strength it is far from us and is not possible so then that means faith in Christ is believing in his faithfulness to us for example if we were to play if I were to pray for healing over somebody and they'd get healed am I the one that healed him am I the Healer Yeshua yeah no if anyone else did that no we know that there was God that healed same with salvation was Deliverance but here's the other thing what about Holiness what about righteousness what about perfection if I walk in Holiness is it I taras that is walking in Holiness or is it Christ's Holiness in me our brother Oleg shared even Jesus himself uh the verse John 14 10 he said that the revelation of the father is his Works in me even the works that he did he says it is him doing it in me so imagine the Son of God is not even claiming rights to those Works [Music] he says it is the father how much how much is that an example for us us being Fallen [Music] claim righteousness can't claim Holiness but only attributed to him who is righteous who is Holy there's another principle between you doing it yourself or by law and and relying on Christopher how many how many of you have tried this where your Bible reading let's say daily is 15 minutes so you have a steady you know 15-minute daily reading and you start go you start going through a hard time in your life so you're like okay what should I do like I need a you know I gotta I gotta I'm gonna pray more I'm gonna read my Bible or I'm gonna do it 30 minutes now let's be honest with ourselves how many of us have tried this and it seems like it's not working so we try to do another hour nothing's working but then in faith in Christ a faith that can move mountains and so we need to seek it in Christ not in what we can do is by the power of the spirit he will do the most amazing you know if you try to make your righteousness depend on works you are relying on principles you are not relying on principles of Grace but of law yes here's another point when when you're driving a bus you rest in the bus and you don't even know the driver yeah we don't even know him it's not you know you rest in a ship when you are you know sailing and you don't even know the captain you know we we can rest in a plane and we don't even know the pilot and Jesus wants us to enter his rest you know then why is it so hard for us to rest in the finished work of Jesus Christ who is the author and the finisher of our faith if we truly claim to know him you know he is not only for our justification but with our co-laboring with him he is also sanctifying us as long as we allow him to is and which will lead to our glorification meaning author and finisher and so everything flows out of resting in the truth of what Christ did for us to proud just like you said in the song that was sung last It's All About You Jesus it's not about it's not about false humility and we just want to show him yes it's all about you it really is all about him and so to conclude the measure of our growth in the spirit is not by works but it's by getting to know him deeper and more intimately you know in Ephesians chapter 2 verses 8 through 10 it says the following a lot of people will use this first and say see but look you were saved but you still have to work but I want to point something out for us today it says for by Grace you have been saved through faith and not of yourselves it is a gift from God and so we see that is justification and then it says not of Works lest anyone May boasts so we know our justification is not of works and so verse 10 says for we are his workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works and see someone will say oh look it works but the following says which God has prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them let me use let me use an example to illustrate this so my Works would be these shoes that I'm I'm in right now but after I am saved there's another pair of shoes over there that Christ has prepared for me beforehand and he has prepared The Works they're in there if I were to put them on so I must remove my shoes and get into those shoes because right before it says that created in Christ Jesus for good works which God has prepared beforehand that you should walk in them The Works that he has prepared beforehand foreign and we want to prove to him that we are so good but there is no one good oh yeah only him he is the only one that is good he is the only one that is Holy the only one that is righteous the only one that can fill us with the spirit to walk in the same things in second Peter verses 1 chapter 1 verse 3 it says the following as his uh chapter 1 verse 3. it says and his divine power has given us all things that pertain to life and godliness so we see in him we have everything life and godliness and comma it says through the knowledge of him who is called by glory and virtue through the knowledge of him we have access to life and godliness power over sin they're meaning Holiness righteousness comes through knowledge of him Holiness of God will produce humility in you and a desire to worship Him [Music] um because you realize in and of yourself you cannot do absolutely anything to even get close to what he is so your heart just falls to the ground and all you want to do is worship him because he is worthy to be praised and you know you cannot walk out this Journey of Faith to the end without him it is second Corinthians chapter 3 verses 17 and 18. I'm sorry for all the verses but I really want the word of God to be the foundation of my message second Corinthians chapter 3 verses 17 and 18. it says the following now the Lord is the spirit and where the spirit of the Lord is there is liberty or freedom but we all with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord and we are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory just as by and the key here is by the spirit of the Lord and so the purpose of the Gospel is not just to recognize God's love to us but for us to be restored by it foreign Church Without blemish or wrinkle before the Lord but the truth is that we all of that can be found in him and so he wants to restore us to the original create creation that was restored that was created in His image you ever wonder why the words are that are used reconciled with God redeemed restored renewed it is in English there's the prefix re to redo something before man fell we were created in the image of God in his Perfection and so through Christ we are in this process of being renewed restored reconciled until we are glorified and so we will be stepping into prayer and I just want us to um to have in our minds um this message and you see this lamb lamb lamb uh answer uh John the Baptist said Behold the Lamb of God that comes to take the sin of the world and so our victory over sin over death it's found in this lamb that came to take the sin of the world and I want us as we as we go into prayer for us to if you guys don't mind and I know it's a little different but I just have it on my heart that a lot of us in the church today think that our opposition is sin and we just have to fight and overcome these thoughts and just become better and better and we're just doing everything we can all our efforts and coming back on Sunday and it's just not good enough over and over again if you guys could stand to your feet and I noticed that the opposition is not sin it's not death because the Bible clearly states he overcame it do we truly believe that Jesus did all of this for us we read it in the word we say it over and over and over and over again but do we see the power of God alive and active in our lives in our church and our families you know just like that woman that was brought before Jesus in all of her shame and her guilt and misery you know she deserved condemnation she deserved punishment so I believe there are many of us here today you know that we're going through things in our life we hear the principles we know them and we we know they're true but we still are stuck in addiction and we're just going through life just hoping that maybe it'll get better this word will somehow apply at some point you know and we just go on through life you know maybe we have thoughts depressive thoughts anxieties you're not worth it you're a nobody nobody likes you know unless you dress like this you know look good you're not that cool and so I believe people are going and battling through these thoughts yes and this is the time this is the time where we can just give it to him knowing that he overcame it have you been striving for a life of righteousness and Holiness look at the one who is Holy look at the one who is righteous that right now sits on the throne here's our Advocate is interceding on our behalf and those that call upon the name of the Lord he will be there in Buddhism saying I am advocating for him I'm advocating for her they they are not going to be punished they do not deserve condemnation on the basis of the fact that they call them and so we as his people as his children let us look unto him divided with him only him not how good you do how how great you are how hard how righteous he is do you need healing look at the Healer we need deliverance and freedom from addictions from bondage look at the delivery if you are in pain and suffering and Agony mentally look at the one that can give you a new heart he is worthy he is worthy to be called upon the move of the spirit and the power of God it's the only thing that will free us and make us free indeed the word of God says who the sun sets free [Music] you are not to be living in that shame and guilt every every day you do not need to lay claim to that sin that's entangled you know I have done it all I have finished the work for you and if you come to me I will take that burden and remove it you to lead us in song it's called it's called lamb Worthy is the Lamb he truly is worthy let us just give open all our hearts up to him and let the power of God truly touch us and for it for it to not be just behavior modification in ourselves but for God to truly give us a heart transformation that a week from now we will look back and that addiction is gone no matter how much you think you know there is more to know of him foreign [Music] when you shed your blood every drop was on purpose [Music] and Worthy is [Music] and Worthy is the Lamb of God [Music] and as you knelt in the gardens [Music] keep every crowd at your feet [Music] [Music] please [Music] [Music] receive all the glory Glory [Music] [Music] [Music] receive all the glory [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] thank you Lamb of God and Worthy is [Music] lamb of gods and Worthy is [Music] if you need a touch from the lamb today if you needed a touch from him if you are looking onto his healing power if you need his righteousness if you need his Holiness call unto his name let him know what your need is let them know what you're struggling with let them know what you're suffering with Lord call on to the name of the Lord today let him be your healing let him be your salvation let him be your Holiness your righteousness let us call upon his name Jesus we need you in this place Lord it is your name your name is worthy to be placed roared you are The Great I Am you are the one that is worth worth the glory worth the praise Lord you are the one Lord that has died for our sins

[Applause] [Music] foreign [Music] foreign [Music] foreign [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] questions delicious [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] again and again praise God I think when our youth serves it's very nice for us is that true yeah and when the children are standing in their full and they're telling stories and telling about Jesus our hearts are so joyful division so today from the stage I want to say a request to all of our youth so that you would not just wait for youth-led services but you would serve God in every service amen territory I heard how amazing our youth was blessed when they had the camp here on the church territory the Sunday School in charge with Eliana zorovska your classes it was her Sunday school class her students I was not here yeah but I saw just a few short clips of their service when the youth was filled with the Holy Spirit when the youth humbles themselves before the Lord's face my heart is touched let's bless them in this time of fasting and prayer and pray for them we will change our service a bit since we have a guest today with his wife can you please come here not long ago they celebrated their 50-year anniversary today when I say they had their 50-year anniversary some youth say I haven't even lived half of that but they have lived together for 50 years [Music] and while they're here as guests I don't want to lose this moment I want us to do two things is so that the brother would be able to share how together in Ministry with a family with grandchildren in these difficult times that they were able to keep the family together [Music] and as being a minister and having other ministers around I want us at the very end to come on stage and to pray and bless the church so that anyone who's having difficulties may be raising their children in their families that we would just be able to pray and bless the church may God bless you Church of Jesus Christ praise be to Jesus we have a great job a great joy to come visit you visit our children and together to praise the Lord is we have brought you greetings from the church in Northport we love you guys and we bless you foreign [Music] like the brothers already said me and my wife have already lived together 50 years and now we're starting the next 50 years together God gives us wisdom he gives us health and everything that's needed for Life praise be to him he is very rich foreign I want to say that the only source of blessing in a person's life is him if God did not bless us we would not be able to live together for so long and in the church in his Blessing is by seeing him blessed is the one who is filled with the Lord with his salvation with his healing with his love a blessing is a spiritual act say yes [Music] it is multiplication so may the Lord bless all of us reach us and we read in the Book of Genesis how Abraham blessed his son Isaac she's foreign foreign so because Abraham was obedient to the Lord the lord gave him this opportunity to blessed what stimulates God to bless us and to bless the children of God is written in Genesis because of these things God blessed Abraham and gave him the opportunity to bless others Slovenia Illinois God also gives people the opportunity to bless others when they don't hold on to this blessing but they send this blessing to God and to others [Music] and when a person has Mercy to others God lets them bless and He blesses that person is and Ruth 2 chapter 2 verse 20 says these words roof times she she writes these words of Blessing about Boaz who who received her and gave her so many things that she needed um [Music] and we know when we read the Bible we see that King Saul was chasing after David because David was anointing as anointed as the king so Saul was chasing after him and he gathered together three thousand soldiers and he was chasing after David and these words are written in First Kings chapter 26. and Saul finally understood that he was not able to do anything to David because God was with David and who can carry blessings and have it upon their lives it's written in Proverbs chapter 10 verse 6. blessings crowned the head of the righteousness may God bless us so that we would be counted in those that carry the crown of blessings and in Proverbs chapter 28 it says a faithful person will be richly blessed um and so we thank the Lord that he has blessed us and it is our 51st year living it is his great love towards us he has given us children grandchildren and great-grandchildrenia foreign and children can also receive blessing from their parents we read in Joshua equilibrium foreign foreign and the father says whoever will take control of this mountain I will give my daughter to them and there was one that took control of this mountain so the father gave his daughter to them foreign and when the daughter was leaving the father asked what can I give to you and she says you have already given me many things but give me a source of water a spring of water even this no baby and he truly blessed her and gave her what she wanted because foreign the Ministers of the church they also have this honor and this privilege for them to bless the people in the church for them to bless the members bless the youth bless the young people and even the elderly yelkano is and in first Samuel chapter 2 it talks about Hannah giving birth to many more children hospital she gave Samuel to the temple she gave him away and she received much more even though she was Barren and could not have children she had three sons and two daughters the one who is blessed becomes a spring of blessing to other people so may the Lord bless each and every single one of us and in Mark chapter 10 verse 16 we read it is and when Jesus was on this Earth it was many crowds of people thousands of people that would follow him and it was not just older people but children as well and it's written and he took the children in his arms placed his hands on them and blessed them and one last thing we need to bless those that make us and pray for those that do not lose we thank for thank God for the opportunity to be here with my wife and we just ask that the Lord would bless all of us I want all the ministers to come up right now because I know every family is going through some difficulties and something that worries them and the brother said there's blessing in children maybe somebody needs some children or some grandchildren biblical the Bible says children are a blessing from the Lord and we need to receive let's as a church stand to our feet yeah I want the ministers to please come closer we need God's grace we need God's blessing in our families I have seven children seven grandchildren I have something I need to pray about and I pray brother you might say he has eight children he has even more needs to pray about and this brother already has nine grandchildren yeah church can you please first pray for us because we in the same way we need that blessing is and then brother in the end we'll pray and we'll lift our hands and we'll pray for our families our church families our children our grandkids so that God would bless husbands he would bless wives so that there was Unity among all of us let's pray Church let's pray [Music] Hallelujah dobrines [Music] Louisiana [Music] [Music] Army is [Music] you may take your seats history praise be to our Lord dear Church brother Paul said that I have eight children no um no I have a blessed wife and with her I have eight children [Music] and there's a big blessing in that because when God gives us families he gives us to one another to the husband the wife and to the wife a husband and through this children come into this world and the children are blessed and holy If You Are Holy you know God said a very good word today to the church and I want to stop on this brother Dimitri said that Abraham listened to the Abraham had faith in the Lord and that was changed to righteousness he listened and he was obedient to the voice of the Lord and that obedience and his faithfulness to that is what brought him a blessing he had one more with him remember his relative Allah he didn't have so much of a blessing as Abraham do you remember he was obedient but not as much and from that he had tragedy in his life did God want this no he did not but even lot didn't want to walk but yeah and it's written to remember about Lot's wife why do we need to remember what kind of decision did she make yes and if we are obedient to the Lord we have blessing brother also said he said that God created all things he gave you Holiness righteousness everything that you need um you remember the woman he was talking about that was caught in adultery and they were supposed to Stone her but they didn't that's nice but do you know what the Lord says Jesus said go and sin no longer and you know she had a choice not just like that she didn't just go and sin if she did they would have stoned her when you're available she had a choice to be to listen and be obedient or not yes and if she was not obedient maybe they would have stoned her maybe not but she would have went to hell every one of us have a choice the word of God tells us this and that is he says choose life he's gifted you Holiness you nothing is needed from you just believe and walk in that but if you don't walk in there well I'm sorry it doesn't just come like that is it's written to choose to walk in the spirit is to walk it's not just you know just choose the spirit and hang in the spirit you have to walk in obedience to the Lord and if you walk in obedience to God you're not going to fulfill the lusts of your flesh but if you see the desires of your flesh begin to come up ask yourself am I obedient to God maybe not I'm fulfilling the desires and what does the word of God say the one that walks in flesh what will he reap foreign the choice is for you and for me God gives us gifts us everything and walk and sin no more foreign the word that was heard and received with faith brings good things just as brother said God has given you everything just walk in all of them and God will bless you all right we will be praying right now about our needs our desires uh foreign [Laughter] our pastor he's visiting another church we'll just pray for his visit if you
