The Watchman Must Stay Separate

Friday, October 6, 2023 – The Miserableness of Evil

Hitler, one of the most powerful men in the world; had no peace or joy. He was a miserable, wretched man. Stalin had everything and was paranoid and angry. Proverbs 12:21 says, “No evil shall befall the righteous, but the wicked will be filled with evil.” That word evil can also mean adversity, affliction, calamity, distress, grief, misery, sorrow and trouble. That’s the nature of evil. Sin might have its moment, but it will always end up making you miserable and wretched. Movies sometimes show evil people laughing maniacally. But evil and joy ultimately don’t go together. In Hebrew, one of the words for blessing and joyfulness is a way of saying righteous. Righteousness and joy ultimately go together. God’s people are to rejoice always. Why? Because only God’s people can rejoice. Turn away from evil and temptation. See it for what it is, a rip-off that takes away your joy. Pursue righteousness and godliness. The way of evil is for the miserable. But the way of righteousness is the way of joy.

How do you fulfill such a calling?
Um, tonight, I’m gonna speak about the the keys of being a watchman or watchwoman and the the the on Sunday, it’s gonna get into a whole another realm about what’s happening around us and the and where we have to go with this.
But the the first thing is you have to be a person of focus.
It’s so easy to get distracted.
A million details to this right, but the watchmen has to be focused, focused on the lord, focused on the things of god.
It’s so easy. The one of the greatest and the weapons the enemy has is to distract you distract you from your calling, distract you from god’s best will, entangle you.
The watchmen can’t watch the city or over the city if he’s in the city.
It’s gotta be on the walls of the city. That’s crucial.
You as the watchmen cannot get entangled in everything that’s going on around you.
You can’t get caught up in everything the watchmen couldn’t get caught up in all that’s going on below.
You can’t hang out in the city and be a watchmen.
You can’t get caught up in all the things of the world and be a watch ma’am.
You can’t get caught up in all sorts of petty things or, you know, the pursuit of money, you have comfort, all these things, and fulfill your calling as a watch, ma’am.
As a watchman, the watchman is separate.
So you have to stay separate to the lord, separated to the lord.
Regardless of of of anything else in your life.
You can’t so you can’t make a difference in this world if you aren’t different from this world.
You have to take your post on the walls above the world, above the culture.
On the high place, you gotta dwell in high place the Bible says we’re to dwell in the heavenlies.
When when we have a live prayer, our live prayer conference during the week via our phones, During the week, when we begin, I always end up praying, lord, we take our stand.
We take our station on the walls as your watchmen. Hi.
