Prayers for the Father's Heart

“Why do we worry”… (Live a better living-continued)
Doctor Harrison Mensah Sunday Sermon

Matt 6:27 who by worry can add to his life…

Matt 6:24 you cannot serve 2 masters…

Verse 25-Take no thought for your life-what you will eat and drink, do not worry about it
The Lord will make provision for us…

God gives us Grace to overcome…God will move supernaturally for us

Again…”take no thought for your life” concentrate on Jesus Christ.

God is a jealous God. Worship Him, focus on Him.

John 3:16 for God so loved the world that He gave His only Son…

vs. 26 the fowls of the air do not sow or reap or gather into barns…are you not worth more than they?

When we worry, we are opening the door to be opened against us by demons…but we overcome by our hope of glory, Jesus Christ…

God wants us to be worry free…

A famous physician once described and categorized the way we worry:
1. General worry 40%
2. Past event worry 30% (things we cannot change)
3. Health related worry 12%
4. Misc. worry 18%

The real worry is 8% genuine worry…waiting on answered prayer to be manifested…

Worry is not in Gods nature…

Worry is an enemy within… remember, worry is an enemy…we have to take authority over
worry.

The enemy “engineers” worry.

Worry is hopeless and we do not have to yield to it…

A Pennsylvania university defined worry as a chain of negativity and uncontrollable thoughts and images

Matt 4: the words of Satan…bow down and worship me…cast yourself off this peak and his angels will catch you…

Example…husband and wife, when they are separated out of town on business they start to worry what the spouse is up to

The enemy can play with our minds…

We must resist the devil and he will flee James 4:7

Demons do not have bodies but they search for bodies that they can inhabit

Demons have personalities

We must have the mind of Christ…Philippians 2:5

Worry is a waste of energy; God wants us to reserve this energy for other things…

Concern is not worry…they are two separate things…”Concern is care”

We must be alert and on guard

God must change our worry to confidence…God will fulfill His promises made to us…

God wants us to approach Him; He will take care of our needs…

Be anxious for nothing…

God will do what He says…Philippians 4:6

God is able…

Our prayer to God “we come to You according to Your promises. Tell Him we are expecting Him to do it

HEALING…do not worry about it…You are the God that Heals me…I believe You by faith.

Ask for all things in the name of Christ Jesus…do it now…We do not have to fear demons we have the victory in Christ…This releases the healing power of God Almighty…tormenting spirits are stubborn…
You must rebuke them “I rebuke the enemy that has caused this sickness-suffering etc. in the Name of Christ Jesus…

Command them to leave…Ask God to command the life of healing to enter into you and seal it by the Blood of Christ the Lord…the Only Begotten Son of God…

There is a demon behind all illness.

God is not the cause of sickness and disease. God does not want us to suffer…

The devil and his minions counter act medical science…

Mark 16:18 we need NOT worry or be in fear, this verse tells of the power of God Almighty to His Saints…

God wants us to live the better living…

James 1: 5 Wisdom

Be worry free…He took all our worry and pain Isaiah 53:4

Amen.

Pastor Harrison Mensah

We need to be strong in faith
Look to the promises of God Almighty

When God says something, He will do what He says…
When we pray, at times, we can get frustrated with not getting an
Answer to those prayers…

God will show up and surprise us…

When we pray, we must cast all our needs on Him not some but all.

The people of God do not know the difference between worry and concern…
Worry is sin. Concern is trying to connect with God. Jeremiah 33:3 call and I will answer…God is mighty and can do all things…He will show us greater things…

We cannot ignore the Cross and the Death of Christ because answered prayer is because of Jesus Christ and based on Him…”It is finished” John 19:29-30.
When we pass our prayer through the Blood of Christ, this blocks the enemy from affecting our prayer.
Satan fears the Blood of the Lord; We overcome the enemy by the Blood of the Lamb…When Jesus went to heaven after His bodily death, He went to the Father,
God Almighty. We must lift our prayers up through the Blood of Jesus Christ…

Revelation 12:7, War in heaven

The Blood of Christ has purchased us…

When the battle becomes tough we need to keep on praying…
God will send His ministering angels to loose the chains…

A gift is not a wish…Example: I wish you well…but a gift is a promise from Christ, a guarantee not a wish. He promised it so it will be…

The only thing the enemy fears is the Blood of Jesus Christ…you can not
Cross the “Blood Line”.

When we plead/cover the Blood over ourselves, we overcome…

We must know how to use His Precious Blood, the Blood gives us the victory and unlocks the promises of the Almighty…Plead the Blood over every aspect of your life. Seal the answer to your prayer with the Blood of Christ…The Blood is our “Victory”.

We overcome the world by the Blood of the Lamb,(Rev 12:11). The Blood that was shed at Calvary.

Walk in it and know who we are in Him…

We submit ourselves to the Lordship of Christ, when we plead and confess the Blood of Christ.

When we are judged, miserable, frustrated, sad, etc., cover up with the Blood…When the Devil and his followers come after you, cover yourself with the Blood of Jesus Christ…because “the devil is not covered with the Blood”…

We must learn to do what Abraham did…Faith…faith…Genesis 22, the facts of the sacrifice of Isaac…Genesis 12, the facts of “leave this place and go to another country”…Faith…

The Blood of Christ is a blessing upon a blessing…

We must always present our prayers through the Blood…

Animal sacrifices were only an example of the BLOOD OF CHRIST.

Phil 2; He humbled himself to death on the cross…verse 8-9…

When you tithe, tithe through the Blood.

Malachi 3:10-12 “I will rebuke the devil

Act 2:34-35 sit at My Right Hand till I make Your enemies Your footstool.

The Blood of Jesus Christ is for us not for rebuking…We must not cast our pearls before swine…

Apply the Blood over your requests, your needs, your life, your very being…
The Blood is the means of openness for our blessings and answers…

Remember, “Preaching of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing”
(1 Corinth 1:18)…

Let’s do as Abraham did.

It was the Blood of Christ that joined us to eternal life,
Jeremiah 33: 8 I will cleanse them from all their inequities
Jeremiah 33: 9 a name of Joy…prosperity…
Jeremiah 33:10 (Witness on the streets about the Lord Jesus Christ)

Matt 7:7 Ask (promise), Seek (promise), Knock (promise)…Through the Blood…

Everything connected to the Blood is Victory…

Claim the Blood of Jesus Christ, claim the promises of Abraham…Through the Blood of Christ we are connected to God Almighty…Maker of heaven and earth and all that is in it.

If you are praying and not getting an answer, keep on praying, if still no answer, fast and pray…

Call out to Him…Do as Abraham did…

Act 10:8,38 Psalm 103:3 Deut 28:15-19

Sermon Notes…”Live a better living”, Continued…

Confusion, fear and negativity are running rampant on the earth today. The enemy is making us march
backwards instead of forward. “Jesus goes forward” and up.

God’s Word should be familiar to us, His Word is alive, “His Word shall not change” “Matt 24:35”.

“I have esteemed you from the time I created You” “Isa 43:1”.

Adam and Eve missed the mark, the Kingdom that was given to them was lost in the garden. They sold out for an apple and a lie, “Gen 3:2”.

Esau sold out for a bowl of stew, “Gen 25:29”. Judas sold out for 30 pieces of silver, “Matt 27”.

“Matt & Luke chapter 4”, the “40 days story” when the devil tempted Adam & Eve it was over food, the same for Esau, the same attempt was made when the Lord was hungry…”it is written, turn these stones into bread” The Lord did not sell His birth-right.

Man was created to rule over everything…but the devil lured mankind in and seduced us.

God creates beauty, “in the image of God”. God created us to be productive…”Gen 2”.

Speak goodness, holiness and blessings all the time. Do not allow confusion, depression etc. to burden us
“Luke 12:3”

We are created in His Image.

We are saved, not defeated.

Other things in the world have taken the place of the Lord and His Word, i.e. technology, TV, science, things…and His Word and Glory are being swept out of the way. These are spiritual diseases. Medical science can’t solve these problems…the cure Is in the WORD OF GOD. Pray the Word of GOD into Your life and upon your body.

God will even let our enemies be at peace with us…“Proverbs 16:7”’

We are so important to God that He allowed His Only Son To die for us….

We are VIPs in the name of the Lord…Mighty things are going to happen.

Beauty is the nature of God Almighty. An example, Halloween; ugly monsters, skeletons, dead things, failure (things are not going well)…No God has given us dominion over these negative things. We have the victory because of Jesus Christ.

Love God with all your might…Speak blessings, pray them…”As man thinketh so is he”…What do you think ? “Proverbs 23”.

“Come unto me all you who are burdened and I will give you rest” “Matt 11:28”.

God wants us cured and healed…”BY HIS STRIPES WE ARE HEALED…also, THE TREE IS KNOWN BY ITS FRUIT…

Our Lord has the upper hand…

Do not allow yourself to be robbed.

Think high, not low…Jesus is HIGH, the HIGHEST…

Every good gift comes from above….

God, Father-Son and Holy Spirit are with us and reside in us…Greater is He that is in us than he who is in the world…

3 John 4:4 Ye are of God little children…“Greater”…”is He that is in you than he who is in the world”…

My treasure is in Heaven…Where thieves can not rob…

Joshua 1:3…Every place where the sole of your feet have been…I will give to you…Everything is ours because of our faith in Jesus Christ…claim them, they are ours because of Jesus Christ…

We are winners, not losers….

By Grace we are free…We have been raised with Him…

Don’t think like the world, think like Jesus…Greater is HE…

“Do not let your heart be troubled” John 14…Words have power to bless or to curse…

We must be very careful what we say.

We must encourage one another…

Christ came to save the sinners, raise the dead and build up…not to tear down.

Christ came to redeem sinners, the wretched refuse…For these I came, “the sick need a physician”

For hope to take root you must have faith….

Anything that does not line up with the word Of God is a lie and is from the wicked one.

Claim your healing. All things are given to us from above.

Sicknesses and diseases are demonic…USE THE WORD OF GOD AND BELIEVE IT…

Ephesians 5:1-10

The Lord wants you to walk with Him; go where He goes, take in His Word … to have a relationship with Him.

Introduction
According to a calculation done by Arthur Blessitt, a conservative estimate of how far Jesus walked during His three and a half year ministry is about 3,200 miles. Considering John 21:25, Jesus most likely walked much more. If two miles in one hour is a comfortable walking pace and Jesus walked about 2.6 miles per day then he spent about one to two hours per day walking. His disciples spent one to two hours per day walking with God!

So what?
1. Walking is used in Scripture in both literal and figurative language. It is both action and a way of life.
2. Walking is something the American or Western Culture Christianity finds somewhat foreign.
a. We live in a fast paced, mechanical, industrialized world of cars, planes, to-do lists, email, text messaging, facebook…
b. Communication with God and with one another is suppressed into small time capsules that conveniently fit into our priority list.

The point!
Truly walking with someone means:
• there is a desire for the other person to want you to be with them,
• there is a desire for you to want to walk with them,
• you take the time to listen to them,
• you talk with them in meaningful dialogue,
• demonstrating actively moving in the same direction,
• relationships!

1. Christ longs for you to walk with Him…

Ephesians 5:1-2
Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children; 2 and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma.

• You are to walk the path with Christ, walk in the love of Christ.
• Be imitators of God…Christ loved (loves), served (serves), sacrificed (sacrifices)…
• You are called to follow Christ…

He calls you…
• John 1:43 The next day He purposed to go into Galilee, and He found Philip. And Jesus said to him, “Follow Me.”
• Matthew 9:9 As Jesus went on from there, He saw a man called Matthew, sitting in the tax collector’s booth; and He said to him, “Follow Me!” And he got up and followed Him.

Do you listen to His voice?
• John 10:27 “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me;

2. When you walk with Christ, you listen to Him. Walking with God means following His Word…

Ephesians 5:3-6
3 But immorality or any impurity or greed must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints; 4 and there must be no filthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks. 5 For this you know with certainty, that no immoral or impure person or covetous man, who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. 6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
• There is a moral code or conduct when you walk with God. How do you know what it is?
• Immorality, impurity, greed, covetousness, idolatry has different meanings in different cultures.
• Your only guide to “faith and practice” is Scripture
• Joshua 22:5 love the LORD your God and walk in all His ways and keep His commandments
• Psalm 1:1-2 How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,
• Psalm 119:105 105 Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.
• Your intake of Scripture enhances the quality of your walk with God.
• In His Word the details of your walk are clarified and come alive.
• Like understanding the Declaration of Independence” then walking by the Liberty Bell.

3. When you hear Christ calling, follow Him, walk in His Word…He wants you to go where He goes…

Ephesians 5:7-8
7 Therefore do not be partakers with them; 8 for you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light

• You are no longer in darkness when you walk with Christ
• You are children of the light, of Christ, walking in the light of Christ
