The Powers That Be

Think not that I am come to destroy the law or the prophets.

For verily I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, 1 jot or 1 tittle shall in no wise pass from the law till all be fulfilled.

Whosoever therefore shall break 1 of these least commandments and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven.

But whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

For I say unto you that except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and the Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

Our subject for this evening reflecting Christ.

As always, if you do not need to use 1 of these, then please use a traditional Bible.

But if you're using 1 of these, then kindly make sure it does not ring.

Favor number 2, while I'm speaking, pray for me and say, Lord, put your words in that man's mouth Jeremiah chapter 1 verse 9 Then the Lord put forth his hand and touched my mouth and the Lord said unto me behold I have put my words in thy mouth.

And as I stand in God's presence tonight, I genuinely and sincerely want God to put his words in my mouth, because the words of God are spirit and they are life.

And so from time to time, simply say in your heart, Father, put your words in that man's mouth.

And the third favor, as always, is I invite you to think.

In the act of applying your minds to what you're hearing, the spirit of God will guide that mental activity and you will be led along the path of truth.

To those before me and those on the internet, let us now bow our heads and pray.

Our Father in heaven, we thank you again for another day of life.

We thank you, dear God, for bringing us to this place, for the purpose of worshipping you in spirit and also in truth.

When truth is missing, the worship is unacceptable.

Father, as we bow in your presence, look into our hearts.

If there's anything unlike you, forgive us, dear God.

Forgive us, because sin makes it difficult to understand truth.

Forgive me particularly as the 1 charged with the heavy responsibility of delivering the message.

I humble myself before you, dear God, and I ask you to take 100% control of my mind.

Do with me as you will as I stand in this holy desk.

Remember all your sons and daughters listening via YouTube or Facebook, wherever they are, dear God.

Stretch your hand because Isaiah 59 verse 1 says, the Lord's hand is not shortened that it cannot save.

Stretch your hand, Father, and touch them.

Let them remember that righteousness exalteth the nation, dear God.

Bless the host church in a very special way and for our visitors father a special blessing upon them I pray thank you dear father for the high honor of speaking for you I offer this prayer from my heart in Jesus name amen Our subject for this evening reflecting Christ.

Go with me to Nehemiah chapter 2 we'll read from verse 1.

Nehemiah chapter 2 reading from verse 1 Find Psalms then work your way back to Job then Esther then Nehemiah.

And it came to pass in the month Nisan, in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king, that wine was before him, and I took up the wine and gave it unto the king.

Now I had not been before time sad in his presence.

Wherefore the king said unto me, why is thy countenance sad, seeing thou art not sick?

This is nothing else but sorrow of heart.

Now this is very interesting interaction between Nehemiah and King Artaxerxes.

Nehemiah was the cup bearer and we're informed of this at the end of verse 11 of chapter 1, for I was the king's cup bearer.

It was a very very critical and intimate position.

The cup bearer had to taste the wine before the king drank it because poisonings were I suppose rife back in those days And so Nehemiah in a certain sense was charged with protecting the life of the king.

On this day Nehemiah said I took up the wine and brought it to the king.

Verse 1 ends this way, now I had not been before time sad in his presence.

Wherefore the king said unto me, why is that countenance sad?

This is nothing else but sorrow of the heart.

The king understood that something in the heart of Nehemiah was not right and no matter what Nehemiah did, he could not hide it from his face.

Nehemiah was reflecting sadness and the king saw it.

Whatever is in the heart cannot be completely hidden.

In Matthew 12 verse 34 Jesus told his listeners, how can ye being evil speak good things?

For out of the abundant of the heart the mouth speaketh it comes from the heart the next verse a good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringing forth good things and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringing forth evil things what's in the heart is what comes out.

Sadness in the heart of Nehemiah shone on his face.

Since our subject is reflecting Christ, how does Christ shine in the face of the believer?

Question again, how must Christ shine in the face of the believer the Bible says they shall see your good works and glorify your Father which is in heaven something about us should allow the character of Christ the goodness of Christ the love of Christ to somehow be reflected through us.

We read verse 51 our subject reflecting Christ.

I am the living bread which came down from heaven.

If any man eat of this bread he shall live forever and the bread that I will give is my flesh which I will give for the life of the world.

And he says that several times in John chapter 6.
