4/28/2013 CHANGE YOUR LANGUAGE

Psalm 107:15-16……Oh that men would give thanks to the Lord for His
goodness, And for His wonderful works to the children of men! For He has broken
the gates of bronze And cut the bars of iron in two.

God wants you to change your
language; as long as we are in His presence, we are covered.

The
languages The Lord wants you to change

1.   
God
wants us to change the language of criticism
: We
criticize God as the children of Israel criticized God. Stop criticizing God,
but give Him praise and thanks. 1 Thessalonians 5:18….In everything give
thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. In all things,
give thanks; Romans 8:28…..And we know that all things work together for good
to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. All
things work together for good; every disappointment is a blessing; in all things
give thanks to the Lord. The bible made us to understand in Exodus 14:10-14….. That
the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, behold, the Egyptians were coming
after them; then they cried to God. They said to Moses “Because there were no
graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why did you
bring us out of Egypt……..” in verse 13, Moses said to the people, “Do not be
afraid, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will
accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see
no more forever” If you can have faith in God the problem you are seeing today,
you shall see them no more forever in the name of Jesus Christ……Praise the
Lord…. In verse 14; it said “The Lord will fight for you and you will hold your
peace.” Did the Lord fight for them or not? Yes He fought for them; God
almighty is a fighter, He has never left us alone; and He will never leave us
alone. John 14:18…..I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you. God will
not leave you like an orphan; He said “I will come to you”; we need to
appreciate God.

2.   
God
wants you to change your language of complaining today
:
the Lord has been so wonderful in your life. Something great has happened in
your life; the road that you pass every day, and come back safely, is the same
road that some people pass and they were unable to come back or get to their
destination. Some people complain about everything, they have never been
satisfied with anything. Change your language and stop complaining; if we keep
complaining we cannot get anywhere. 1 Corinthians 10:4-15…..God was not pleased
with many of them because they complained, that was why their carcasses where
falling in the wilderness. They drank from the spiritual water that followed
them and that rock was Christ. Jesus Christ was the rock that followed them,
but they complained against God.

3.   
God
wants you to change the language of unfaithfulness
:
Some people’s language is unfaithfulness; they have never been faithful to God.
Because they have not been faithful to God, they believe that everybody is not faithful;
everything they do is lies and deceit. God wants us to change language of lies
John 17:17……Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth. God is truth that
is why in John 14:6…….Jesus said “I am the way, the truth, and the life……” Everyone
that has tasted Christ speaks the truth. John 8:32& 44……..You shall know
the truth, and the truth shall make you free. In verse 44; “You are of your
father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a
murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is
no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he
is a liar and the father of it.” We have to change the language of lie; the Lord
wants us to use the language of praise and thanksgiving. Let everybody praise
the Lord….. Today we need to praise the Lord; God has been so wonderful in our
lives; God has done great things for you. When you think it is over, it is not
over; when you think that God cannot do it that is when God wants to do it;
when you have lost hope that is when God says “I have come.” God is good, He is
great; He is wonderful; He powerful; He is glorious; there is no one like Him;
somebody shout ALELLUIA.  

REASONS
WHY YOU HAVE TO THANK GOD

1.   
 He created you; it pleased the Lord to create you.
Romans 8:29-30…..For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to
the image of His son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover
whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these also justified;
and whom He justified, these He also glorified. It is God that has predestined
us; it is God that has called us; Jeremiah 1:5……Before I formed you in the womb
I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to
the nations. Romans 9:15……I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I
will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion.  Exodus 33:19….. I will be gracious to whom l
will be gracious, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. Lamentations
3:22-23…..Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions
fail not. They are new every morning. It the compassion and the mercy of God
that has kept you alive. We need to thank God for creating us.

2.   
 He created us for a purpose. Some people
do not have purpose, but you have a purpose; Psalm 139:14….I will praise You,
for I am fearfully and wonderfully made….. You are here for a purpose; even as
wicked as Pharaoh was, the Lord created him for a purpose. Exodus 9:16……But indeed
for this purpose I have raised you up…..God raise him for that purpose; praise
the name of the Lord with me….

3.   
 He has kept you alive; it is not your
wisdom that has made you to be what you are today; you are alive today because
God has made it so. Ecclesiastes 3:18…..I said in my heart, concerning the
condition of the sons of men, God tests them, that they may see that they
themselves are like animals. Everything that happens to animals happens to us;
God is the only God. Isaiah 45:6…..That they may know from the rising of the
sun to its setting that there is none beside Me. I am the Lord, and there is no
other. He can make a life; He can kill; He can destroy.  Ecclesiastes 7:13….Consider the work of God;
For who can make straight what He has made crooked?  Ecclesiastes 9:11…..The race is not to the
swift, Nor the battle to the strong, Nor the bread to the wise; Nor riches to
men of understanding, Nor favor to men of skill; But time and chance happen….
It is God that make things happen; Psalm 115:3….But our God is in heaven; He
does whatever He pleases. Who can challenge God? The unchanging changer; the
unquestionable God; He has kept you alive; somebody shout ALLELUIA. Change your
language and praise Him; He is the giver of life; He who gives life can take
life; but He has kept you alive.

4.   
 He has put your enemies to shame. That you
are alive and eating, He has put them to shame; your enemies thought it was
over for you; they tried to annihilate you, and did all things to you and they
failed. They came to take your life away, but the Lord preserved your life. Here
you are walking, smiling, and standing in the presence of the living God. God has
put all your enemies to shame; I say He has disgraced them. Somebody shout
ALLELUIA…… Isaiah 59:19….So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west,
and His glory from the rising of the sun; when the enemy comes in like a flood,
the spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him. Shout a victorious ALLELUIA…….

5.   
He sent Jesus Christ to us: who
are we to face the witches, wizard, and familial spirits if not for Jesus
Christ. Jesus Christ was slaughtered so that through His death, we might
receive life; can I hear AMEN in the house….. Jesus rescued me, He rescued you;
He rescued the whole world; our joy today is because of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ
gave us life; John 3:16….For God so loved the world that He gave His only
begotten son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have
everlasting life. Jesus gave us hope, grace, favor, and destination; that after
this world there is another life. Jesus Christ came; He conquered the devil,
death, and He took the key of life from him who was holding it and that was
death; and He gave us life. In everything praise the Lord. Psalm 67:5-6…..Let
the peoples praise You, O God; let all the peoples praise You. Then the earth
shall yield her increase….. Because you are praising Him, there shall be
showers of blessing…….

Remain Blessed in the Lord
