#home #family #parents #children #JesusChrist #God #Faith #Hope #Love When we #think of the #victory of the #Cross we have to remind ourselves that the #blood of #Jesus #cleanses us from all our #sins and we are #forgiven in Christ. At the Cross #Jesus bore all our #grief and #sorrows. All #guilt and #condemnation is lifted because of His #blood. At the Cross #mercy and #peace took on a #human #face. #Jesus #Christ made a #covenant with His #Father and His #blood brings us #everlasting #peace.

who told you you were unworthy that uh
you’re no good
you’re useless
you’re unusable to God
we all know where that comes from the
devil said it
the Devil Himself is the liar he keeps
you feeling like God is angry with you
and you’re never going to maze you up to
God’s standard
he keeps reminding you that you’re weak
you’re helpless you’re a total failure
that all comes from the pit of Hell
these are lies and they are told to all
of us we all hear them
who is it that tells choir members for
example that they’re not worthy to be
sitting here ministering
in the house of the Lord
who tells the musicians that they’re not
holy enough to hold their instruments in
the presence of the holy God and
minister to the people
who keeps telling elders and Sunday
school teachers and ushers and
volunteers and workers in the church
you’re not worthy you’ve got unclean
hands you’ve got an impure heart what
are you doing trying to handle holy
things
you are a disgrace you don’t have
victory in your life and so the enemy
comes constantly trying to say what you
need to do is just to sit down and wait
until you get it all figured out till
you get your life together until you’re
good enough and you’re worthy enough
then you can come to God’s house then
you can be used of God but until then
you can’t have any part of it and I
believe there are a number of you
listening to me right now you’re hearing
me as a pastor
and something has been told to you by
the Devil Himself of your great
unworthiness
that you’re not even to be considered a
righteous child of God
you look at your spiritual life and you
see inconsistency
you say Pastor Wilkerson I am not living
as consistently as I ought to live
there are still failures in my life I am
still battling certain things that
disgust me I’m going through great
Temptations I’m going through trials and
I have this sense that I will never
measure up I’ll never really be what God
expects me to be or what I really want
to be
and this comes from people who love the
Lord passionately they love him with all
of their heart
but there’s this this constant barrage
that comes from the enemy always
reminding always accusing always
harassing your spiritual mind and folks
I don’t know anybody that I have ever
known in my lifetime who’s been used of
God who has not gone through this I’ve
known what that is I’ve experienced it
many times in fact there there have been
there’s been very few times in my
Ministry and I started preaching when I
was a teenager there’s hardly ever been
a time I have felt worthy to stand in
the Pulpit I’ve never felt worthy of it
I’ve always heard the enemy come with
the accusations that that I I have no
right to be in the Pulpit that I have no
right to be a leader among people and
those accusations will come against
everyone
a bread for the great Puritan often said
I think sometimes I have the blackest
heart in all of Europe and he was one of
the godliest men those accusations kept
coming at him that he was unworthy he
stood every time he went out to to speak
to the people there were there was
something going on in his stomach there
was a fear there was an anxiety with
trepidation even to stand before the
people this tremendous sense of
unworthiness now in our flesh we are
unworthy we will never be worthy in our
flesh but there are some of you right
now being robbed by the devil because
you have given into these lies you have
listened to these lies
and he has told you no no folks there
have been times that we as pastors have
had to go to certain people that that
were in maybe voluntary ministry here in
the church and we’ve asked them just to
sit down and not to be active in the
church because there was something in
their life
that they were not seeing that we could
see that others could see but they were
blinded to it and rather than go into we
just said sit down for a while until God
did we let the word deal with you or
they were living in a in an open
flaunted sin and there was no repentance
and that can’t be allowed that’s
something entirely different but I’m
talking about God’s people who
passionately love the Lord
folks if if if we listened and gave in
to these lies of the devil if we gave
into the molestations of the enemy if we
gave in to all of these onslaughts that
come to our mind of our unworthiness
we’d have to shut down every minister in
the church there would be no Ministry
there would be nobody in the Pulpit
there would be no choir there would be
no Orchestra because we would be robbed
we would be lied out of the blessings of
God and the Lord would not be getting
any Praises as he ought
these thoughts that come unworthy Unholy
unclean
drop out
until you get it right but folks I’m
going to tell you something you you can
drop out of all Christian service you
can sit down for a week you can sit down
for a month you can sit down for a year
you can sit down for 10 years and you’re
still going to have those lies coming to
you from the enemy and just sitting down
is not the answer just sitting down the
listening itself is not the answer if
you’re going to allow the devil to rob
you of the wonderful Authority and the
power and the grace and the ability to
worship and praise God
I want to
I want to deal with some of the lies of
the enemy this morning
what I’m talking about is something we
we all have to deal with now I’ve got a
question for you this morning and I want
you to listen very closely question
was the devil able to keep you in bed
this morning
through condemnation did he try to keep
you in bed evidently he didn’t because
you’re here
but did he come and try to say you don’t
need to go to church today and
especially in the choir you don’t need
to sing in a choir because you don’t
have things figured out there’s still
some confusion you still have some
inconsistencies in your life and you are
not ready and you’re not really ready to
hear brother Dave or Pastor Carter
preach another sermon against sin
because by every time the preacher
preach about your sin here comes the
enemy that you that is you that is you
it’s you and it’ll come down at you and
you will not get convicted you’ll get
condemned because you are listening to
some lies of the enemy
now I want you to follow me very closely
the devil did not succeed in keeping you
in bed
you got up
did he was he able to stop you halfway
here and turn your car around or get you
off the subway and get in the other
direction and go home because you said
well I’m really not worthy I there’s
some things in my life why should I go
to church I’m not going to be a phony
and raise my hands and praise God in
Times Square Church there this morning
but was the devil able to keep you out
of God’s house this morning
was he evidently not you’re sitting here
now you came into God’s house this
morning another question when you got
here you some of the you you hugged a
couple of saints of God and people you
know and friends and you felt the
Friendship of the Lord and and you took
your seat either in God’s house or if
you were in a choir you got your robe
but you went and uh uh was the devil
able to uh lie to you and say well well
not you’re not to go out there now
because you’re not prepared you’re not
good enough you’re not worthy enough
there are things that God’s still
dealing with in your life uh he left you
alone didn’t he let you come and sit and
he just didn’t bother you too much
because here you are you’re sitting
right in your regular seat
and here you are sitting in your regular
seat most of you sit in the same place
all the time
find out of where you are I know where
you are
I know where my Amen Corner brother is
right over here
[Applause]
I know you two have to sit right in the
front seat you’re there all the time God
help anybody gets your seat
and but you know the wonderful thing
the Devil Couldn’t keep you out
you know what he did he waits
he waits because you see the devil knows
that God Delights in his people the
Bible makes that very very clear in
psalm 16 3 but to the saints that are in
the Earth and to the exit in whom is all
my delight God Delights in his children
God Delights in his children even in
their in their struggles in their
Warfare even in their failures
beloved I I’ve got I was visiting with I
won’t tell you which child I was
visiting with with some grandkids out to
I got a little grandson
that really needs some work I mean he
really needs to be worked on
I was ready to call a doctor see if he
had add or something and
I said we got to do something boy I
prayed but you know something that
little boy crawled up in my lap even
though I heard him scream and yell no no
no and do some stupid dumb things that
little kid called up in my arms and and
stole my heart
and and I loved on him I don’t give up
on him because he’s going through a
struggle there’s something there that
has to be dealt with and worked with and
and and and I Delight in my children I
Delight in my grandchildren and God
Delights in his people even in their
struggles and in their battles and the
Devil comes to you and he he waits until
you get to church he won’t stop you
because you know I I many of you came
here you were so excited I had more
people pass me today without saying
hello
then anytime I’ve been here I mean they
ran past me there must have been two
dozen people running right by me I guess
I don’t know if they I I didn’t
recognize me or not but they were
zooming past me
anxious to get into God’s house
and and here you are you’re sitting in
the house of God
but the devil sends his his most vicious
lying demons
and I’m going to tell you there’s an
assignment
of of a whole bunch of the worst lying
demons out of the pit of Hell that are
on assignment
especially in Times Square Church and
any other Bible preaching Church where
the gospels preached without compromise
and these demons are sent and what they
do they they come to church
yes they do they come to church they
come into God’s house
and they wait until the first chorus
and they wait until you open your mouth
and they wait until you sing Majesty or
blessed be the name of the Lord or I
have come to praise the Lord he waits
until the Praises come up but you know
they’re so afraid of the moving of the
Holy Spirit and there’s such a fear they
want to get their job done quickly so
what they do they just hover over choir
members and they hover over other people
that are in the house of God and then
they wait until maybe you put your hands
up or your heart is into it and then
come the accusations
phony
you’re a phony
you are unworthy to be standing here
singing in front of all these people
don’t you know you serve a holy God
if only the pastor had seen you three
days ago
if only your friends had seen what you
did on the job if if someone had been
there when you lost your temper if
someone had been in your home the way
you talked to your husband
if the pastor had been listening on the
telephone you’d have been thrown out of
this choir
the devil will come and he will sit on
your shoulder that demon will whisper in
your heart you are unworthy you are
unclean you don’t you don’t have the
first idea of what this is all about
you’re bringing judgment you’re you’re
an aching in the cap you’re going to
destroy the anointing
he comes all through the house of God in
just about when you’re trying to get
free in the Lord and love him with all
of your heart then the enemy will come
and remind you of every failure
everything you said the past week
everything you did in the flesh he will
come at you and scream unworthy phony
hypocrite
and he’ll say sit down and shut up
because he knows you get your Delight in
praising God you get Delight in
worshiping the Lord and God gets Delight
in his children and he’s out to kill
that Delight
he’s out to kill that worship
mm-hmm
and I’m telling you I’m putting every
demon that’s visiting here this morning
on notice you’ve got about 15 minutes
before the truth is going to drive you
back to the pits of Hell the truth is
going to drive you out of here
you can shake your fist and yell at the
Devil all you want the only thing that
he listens to is the truth the only
thing that sends demons fleeing is not
somebody singing loud it’s the truth the
truth of the word of the Living God
I I was reading the story this past week
of an acquaintance of mine true story
it was a ten Advantage he’s a tennis
evangelist in the Deep South
and he was indicted by the federal
government for tax evasion the man was
innocent in fact was later proved
innocent and exonerated but he was given
the three-year jail sentence I think was
three years
this man went to prison humiliated
he was known all through the South he
was a prophet he was a powerful preacher
and here he is now in jail close and
he’s being mocked and ridiculed his
reputation is shot
and the man you talked about feeling
unworthy and he goes through the prison
Courtyard thinking God I must have done
something
terrible that I don’t know about that
you had to take such drastic action that
you had to make allow me to be a
spectacle before the whole world
and he says I don’t understand and if he
he became he felt So Unworthy felt so
down he contemplated suicide
but at his lowest point the Holy Spirit
came into his cell
and reminded him of a scripture found in
Luke 9 56 for the son of man has not
come to destroy men’s lives
but to save them
and the Holy Spirit said pastor
evangelist my son I didn’t send you here
to destroy you
I brought you here to save you
and suddenly the spirit of God came on
him he began to pray for the sick I mean
even the even the leaders in the prison
were calling on him for prayer became a
model citizen that he was one of the
most admired prisoners in in the history
of Texas prisons and and an amazing
thing happened he dropped out of school
uh when he was younger and I don’t know
the reasons why but he hadn’t learned to
read he he could read his Bible portions
of the Bible but he couldn’t read so
while he’s there he learned to read and
God began to open the word in a deeper
way to him he came out of that prison a
hero and and a great Touch of God in his
life like he’d never had before and God
exonerated him but you see the devil
tried to kill him by telling him he’s
there because he’s unworthy
and folks sometimes strange unusual
things happen by the Providence of God
in our lives and we think that they’re
awful things and God uses these things
to bring glory to his name things that
we we would just like Joseph being sent
to prison and what a horrible thought it
was and yet this was God’s divine plan
and some of the awful things that you
and I are going through God has uh God
has a plan for everything God knows
exactly what he’s doing there’s not a
thing happening in your life that God
doesn’t know about that doesn’t fit his
perfect plan so relax and say God it’s
all in your hands I give it all over to
you
[Applause]
just see here’s where we’ve got to begin
if we’re to resist the lies of the Satan
of Satan God is not out to destroy you
he’s not out to destroy me
I said this is where you begin to resist
the lies of the devil
he said I have not come to destroy men’s
lives
God loved you when you were in sin he
loved you when you were alienated from
him
he is not out to destroy you get that in
your mind God is not out to do you any
harm God is out to do you nothing but
good as your as his son as his daughter
he is on your side
can you say it he’s on my side God is
not out to destroy me God is not out to
destroy me Hallelujah
praise the Lord
I know what I’m talking about I think I
told it once in this Pulpit years ago
when I was working with sister Catherine
Coleman and and a very busy Minister
here in New York City in Brooklyn with
Teen Challenge working with drug addict
and alcoholics and I had to travel so
much raising funds just to keep the
doors open and I was in such demand at
the time and once a month I would fly to
Pittsburgh and minister with Catherine
Coleman then once a month with her in
Los Angeles at the big Coliseum
4 000 young people four to five thousand
young people one night and I I got on a
plane in New York City and actually
I can’t I have to acknowledge it I had a
fight with my wife and it was not a good
scene I left her in tears
I would I I have to say honestly and
it’s not a cop-out I was weary I was
beat I would I hate to fly you know and
I’m I’m flying again and and uh had a
rough flight I go into Los Angeles I am
weary I am just absolutely at the end of
my rope and I I’ve had this this
disagreement with my wife
and I get up to preach in front of
nearly four to five thousand young
people
Captain Coleman actually was my song
leader at the time
and I was the preacher
and I got up to preach
and I open my bible and I heard the
Devil scream in my voice you’re the
biggest phony on the face of the Earth
how in the world do you stand up here
tonight and try to preach Holiness when
you
said those awful things to your wife and
you blew up at her and she’s left there
crying and and and and and he just
I couldn’t speak I couldn’t do anything
I’m standing there in fact he’s
screaming so loud in my my subconscious
mind you’re a phony I almost said it out
loud
and I I looked over sister Coleman was
sitting there and and she just shaking
her head because I’m not talking I’m not
saying anything I’m just standing there
dumbfounded
and I’m I’m in panic and I’m praying God
help me what’s going on you’re phoning
you’re unworthy
you you have no right to preach the
gospel you’re sinful you’re Wicked
you’re no good
and until you get your life straightened
up you have no right to stand in this
pulpit
you have no right to say anything to
these people so I closed my Bible and
walked off the stage
and and sister Coleman said David what’s
going on I said just Coleman I’m sorry I
don’t even know if I’m worthy to preach
anymore I’m a phony
I’m just a phony
a preacher a friend he said David you
all those people out there what are you
going to do I said I’m going to hop a
plane and go home I don’t know what I’m
going to do
sister Coleman got up and she took over
the service I already don’t even know
what happened to that service but I’ll
never forget that moment as long as I
live because I gave in in my weariness I
gave in to a lie of the devil I gave in
if I would have just pressed in the Lord
would have anointed me it would have
been a great service I didn’t have to
walk off that stage I got on that plane
and the devil succeeded in making me
feel that I had no right to work with
drug addicts again I had no right to say
anything because there were things that
I still had not worked out in my life
with the Lord I was still in some
spiritual battles in my life I still had
a temper there were things in my life
that God was dealing with I was not
living in adultery I was not a
fornicator but there were things in my
life that that God was dealing with and
and and and I was I was not I was
listening to these accusations out of
the pits of hell and it almost destroyed
me God in his Mercy I went Coleman went
into my little prayer room and and I
made it right with my wife and God began
to speak to my heart and I went back on
the streets and and it back in the
streets ministering the drug addicts God
began to restore my confidence in his
faithfulness in the blood where I began
to trust the blood and begin to push
aside the lies of the devil push aside
all the accusations that come from the
pits of hell
now if you’ve been listening to these
lies and if the devil’s been telling you
you’re unworthy and that you just have
to sit you you can’t praise the Lord you
can’t worship God until you get
everything perfect that is a lie
and I’m going to show you folks that God
has made you and me worthy we have been
made worthy by the sacrifice of Jesus
Christ you have been made worthy to come
to this house this morning no matter
what inconsistencies there are in your
life no matter what your battles are you
ever write to raise your hands and
praise God you have every right to stand
and say I’m a child of the Living God
I’m Bound for heaven and not hell you
you have every right to resist every
single lie of the devil Colossians the
first chapter
verse beginning read verse 10. now we’re
going to chase the devil away from this
house today
we’re going to put him to Chase
Hallelujah
I speak in the name of Jesus against
every lying spirit
that would hover in the atmosphere
I take his authority by his holy word
now we stand on this word
the devil cannot confute The Living Word
of God
listen to this if you will please with
me Colossians 1 beginning verse 10. that
ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto
all pleasing being fruitful in every
good work and increasing in the
knowledge of God
strengthen with all might according to
his glorious power and all patience and
long-suffering with joyfulness here’s
the verse
giving thanks unto the Father which has
made us meet or fit to be partakers of
the inheritance of the Saints in light
who hath delivered us from the power of
darkness and hath translated us into the
kingdom of his dear son in whom we have
Redemption through his blood even the
Forgiveness of sins
now the Greek brings it up very strongly
the rendering is this the father has
made us fit
worthy qualified in character good
enough to be partakers of the
inheritance of the Saints of light
look at me please
what Jesus did on the cross qualified
you for Eternal inheritance
eternal life and if God has qualified
you for eternal life he’s qualified you
and made you fit in character in every
other way to praise God and worship him
in the presence of the other saints of
God in this house now and at any time we
have been made fit we have been made
worthy by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ
and his eternal blood Hallelujah
you don’t qualify yourself
you don’t make yourself fit
oh folks the striving the incredible
striving that we undertake trying to fit
trying to make ourselves meet or
qualified in character
to to be an inheritor of this wonderful
life this eternal light of Jesus
that you can’t qualify yourself I’m
telling you now that if you were able to
get the victory on your own strength
over every evil thought over every
single wrong thing that you have ever
done and you were able to live say a
year or two or three and in your own
strength you have conquered everything
in your flesh
I’m going to tell you you’re still not
qualified in the sight of God because
that is your righteousness and Jesus or
the father does not accept our
righteousness because it’s all filthy
rags in his sight there’s only one
righteousness that God accepts and
that’s the righteousness of Jesus Christ
his righteousness alone and you can’t
get that by working for it you get it by
believing for it trusting in God for it
it’s yours by faith we are saved by
faith Sanctified by faith justified by
faith healed by faith kept by faith it’s
all by faith in what Jesus has done
but all how we strive
and you know the problem with striving
In the Flesh and and the the Bible has
as a word word for it that I’ll I’ll
show you in just a minute trying to
establish our own righteousness means
trying to work out our own problems and
our own strength
biting the bullet promising God you’ll
never do it again you know how long your
promises last not until it gets out of
your breath
I mean you break them and folks the the
problem is when you try to do it
yourself and you win a victory over
something you suppress you there’s no
such thing as victory there’s
suppression you suppress your sins you
suppress your habits they go down deeper
and all they do is Dig Down Deeper to
come out stronger
at a later day a later time and you say
oh I’ve got the Victory and you feel so
good about it I did it
I knew if I just put my mind to it if I
put my heart to it I could get to
Victory I I want a victory and we feel
so proud we feel so good about it we go
around judging everybody else
the most vicious judgmental people are
those who have won self-claimed
victories that are only partial
they become judgmental of everybody else
folks I know in my preaching I I had
just to tell you right now there have
been times in my past Ministry
especially when the younger man and
there was a victory needed to be one in
my life and I would win that Victory so
bless God I’m going to do this if it
kills me and it almost killed me that I
I I I would get to Victory and boy I I
look boy a whole month now I am free
those Covetous thoughts are gone
it for for me it had to do with with
automobiles
boy I got the victory
and you know I found myself standing in
the Pulpit screaming against preachers
who drove big Mercedes benzes
and I was
hard
I was judgmental
and then six weeks later
I’m in a car auction
and I’m walking around lusting after
everything I see
and then then the discouragement said
sin and you say oh God I begged you to
deliver me and you didn’t deliver me I
begged you to set me free and you didn’t
take this thing out of me
and and then we blame God
oh
folks when are we going to come to the
place when we quit striving in the flesh
and we under we come to a complete
understanding that the only
righteousness that is accepted by the
father is the righteousness of Jesus
folks listen there’s only one man left
only one man stands before God and
that’s the man Christ Jesus and when you
stand there you stand in him not in
yourself not in anything you’ve done you
Jesus has to look at you right through
Christ his righteousness his victory
it’s not you nobody there’ll be millions
of us Before the Throne of God and we’re
not going to be talking about any of our
victories there’s only one Victory and
that’s the victory of the Cross and
everything comes right in through the
victory of the Cross and that’s the only
thing that is accepted by the father we
are accepted before the father through
Jesus and his righteousness and none
other
oh Hallelujah
so what what you do you get up on your
feet and you don’t listen to The Devil’s
lies you can stand and praise him and
say in the name of Jesus I have no
righteousness of my own
but I do have the righteousness of Jesus
Christ by faith Hallelujah in whom we
have Redemption through his blood even
the Forgiveness of sins
and it also says all things were created
by Him and for him
Redemption simply means I’m set free I
have been set free I’ve been redeemed by
his Precious Blood so you and I have the
right to stand right up against every
accusation and say devil you’ve accused
me for the last time I’m not buying that
my Bible says I’m redeemed because I
believe in what Jesus did I confess my
sins to him I am redeemed I am bought I
am his
well what about that sin you indulged in
just the other day the Devil Comes says
you’re guilty you say no devil I’ve
already asked forgiveness for that I’ve
asked for Mercy I ask God to put a
hatred in me and keep me from it
It’s all under the blood I’m redeemed
oh yeah but you’re still tempted the
devil says but the Bible says devil that
my Lord made a way of Escape that I’ll
be able to bear it
and he’s going to give me Deliverance
because he’s promised it to me
but the Devil comes and says but God
still has something against you
there are some things that you still
have unsettled in your life laughs
now let me show you how you answer the
devil when he comes like that if you
will please you say devil even when I
was alienated in My Mind by awful evil
works when I was in the very pits of
lust when I was in the drugs of hell
even when I was one of his worst enemies
my Bible says he loved me he sought me
out he reconciled me to himself even
when I was
of enemy and I was in the kingdom of
darkness so having made peace with me
and having translated me out of the
kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of
Light and I’ve been reconciled by his
blood I’ve made peace with him how much
more does he love me now than I’m
reconciled he loves me Hallelujah you’ve
got to be convinced of his love
foreign
Jesus says now you are reconciled you
have peace with God
now he will present me holy unblameable
unreprovable in his sight
let me tell you one thing that robs most
of us of the joy and peace with God
trying to establish our own
righteousness Romans 10 3 for they being
ignorant of God’s righteousness they’re
going about trying to establish or
secure their own righteousness having
not submitted unto the righteousnesses
of God righteousness of God hallelujah
now before I close
I want to I want to expose this three
lies of the enemy so that you can begin
to Rejoice I want to close this service
out with a time of praise and rejoicing
in the Lord and I want you to rise above
every lie every fear
so that you can be set free folks there
are some of you if you don’t get free
soon you’re going to be I’m you’re going
into a pit that the devil has you locked
in you’ve got to get out Jesus came to
say he’s delivered us from our prisons
and some of you are in a prison of
bondage That You Feel So Unworthy you’re
not really praising God you’re not
really worshiping the Lord in fullness
and God wants to set you free now I’m
not talking about a bunch of people
running around this church like wild
Indians
you know you Indians forgive me I’m I’m
not sure I’m
I’m talking about those old uh cowboy
movies
all right listen to this please
Satan keeps bringing up your sins
to get your eyes off the savior
he wants you so focused on the disease
that you forget you’ve got a physician
who has the answer
now I want I want to tell you something
now the devil can molest you but he
can’t damn you
he can throw all kinds of accusations
but he cannot damn your soul he can lie
and lie but he cannot touch your soul he
can’t damn you you’ve been delivered
but he’s wanting to focus you on your
sins the one way to tell the people are
not out of Egypt yet is they’re still
focused on Pharaoh my Bible says that he
threw the Rider and the horses in the
sea that is the enemy and all of the
powers of Darkness he he threw them in
the sea and he drowned them get your
eyes off Pharaoh get your ass off those
dead horses
you’re on your way to Promised Land
God help us not to focus on our sins
we can preach against us since we deal
with them and get them out of the way
but we focus on the savior
some of you are are so focused on your
sin that you can’t even believe God is
your deliverer anymore you have a great
physician who is on your side and he’s
not out to destroy you he’s out to
deliver you
Hallelujah
Satan can molest you and taunt you and
accuse you but listen to me the law
can’t condemn you because Jesus
fulfilled the law
Divine Justice can’t condemn me because
Christ satisfied all the justice of God
no sin can condemn you because they’re
all under the blood your conscience
can’t condemn you because Christ is
greater than your conscience and he’s
forgiven you so there’s nothing left for
your conscience to condemn you about
number two
you say but brother Dave I was overcome
by a lust I was overpowered against my
will I fell there was a sin that that I
hate and I was overpowered just came on
me and I did it again I fail and I have
a question for you did you cry out did
you resist because in the scripture in
Deuteronomy 22 don’t turn there but it
says very clearly in the law that if a
damsa was caught in the field by a man
and she was molested in in plain
language if she was raped
if she cried out she was innocent
she was innocent but if she didn’t cry
out and she didn’t resist she was to be
stoned
and that’s why you hear us from this
pulpit time and time again we talk about
when the enemy comes in like a flood and
you love the Lord with all your heart
and suddenly something just commit the
enemy comes in and there’s no other word
for it but it’s a spiritual rape he
comes against you and he overpowers you
and you hate it and you cry out we’ve
told you time and time again brother
Carter preaches it just as strong as I
do when you come to this place cry out
to the Lord let your cry become a prayer
and if you cry out the Lord says this
damsel is innocent do you cry what did
you do all right cry out Lord forgive me
I’m sorry I don’t want this I hate it
the Lord is there Hallelujah to forgive
it’s under the blood go on worshiping go
on praising God
Hallelujah don’t let the devil rob you
don’t let him condemn you
how many are understanding that
principle
you’re still crying out oh God
I don’t want this oh God you’re my
deliverer God I hate this
keep on crying
and finally
we’ve got to repent
listen closely we’ve got to repent for
our discouragement over our sins
because when we get discouraged of our
sins it’s proof of two things our
ignorance of the mercy and grace of God
and unbelief
and that is sin
if you are living in such discouragement
over your sin you’ve got to repent of
that you are not believing that Jesus
blood you are not trusting the
Forgiveness of the Lord Jesus Christ
you’re not understanding his mercy and
Grace it’s ignorance folks if we really
understood what Jesus did if we
understood his great Mercy if you
understood how much he loved us folks
there’s a tendency when we feel God to
pull away from his love and not trust it
anymore but if we only knew one day we
will on when we stand before he will
understand the fullness of his grace and
his Mercy
but he died because of his grace and
mercy and love he loves us even when we
fail and when you understand his love
when you understand his grace and mercy
then you say oh God forgive me
because I’ve been so discouraged because
of my sin
and that’s a sin that’s unbelief you you
don’t believe in forgiveness
you say well I I I sin and confess and I
sin and I confess
but always there that cry in your heart
Jesus I love you
Jesus I want nothing to stop the
Fountain of worship and praise that
comes out of my heart
Hallelujah
no in ourselves not one I’m not worthy
to stand here to preach you’re not
worthy to sit there and sing nobody here
is worthy not in our own human strength
and power but he said I have made you
meet I have made you worthy and you can
stand now in Jesus name and say I am
worthy by the blood of the Lamb will you
stand please
