I do what I do because I’ve seen god’s power transform my own life, and he will do it for you.
The key to everything is found in god’s word.
I’m Joyce Meyer, and I belief that god can heal you everywhere you hurt.
Well, today is the national day of prayer in the United States.
Did you know the 1st Thursday of May each year is designated by the United States Congress as a day of prayer and Thanksgiving and is accompanied by a proclamation from the president.
It’s something our country has done since 1789.
When our first president George Washington called upon the nation to a day of prayer and Thanksgiving.
Today as Christians, we have the privilege to pray for our country, for our leaders, and for all the brave men and women in our military.
2nd canonical 714 tells us if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways.
Then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sins, and will heal their land.
I’m gonna pray, but I also wanna just say before I do, that hopefully and prayerfully, we don’t just pray one day a year.
This is something we should be doing on a regular basis.
Father, we come to you in Jesus name, and we do pray for our nation.
We pray for our president.
And all of our elected officials whether they’re local or state or national.
And we pray god that people will humble themselves and seek your face.
That as a nation, people would turn from their wicked ways and seek you with their whole heart.
We ask you for your protection.
We thank you for our military, and we pray for all the men and women who serve in the military.
We’re grateful for them, but we pray that you would help them and, uh, make them strong and brave.
We thank you, lord, for everything that you’ve done for us in this nation.
We pray that you would continue your grace and mercy upon this land.
We ask it in Jesus’ name. Amen. Amen. Thank you.
Words are like containers for power, just like this glass, can contain many different type of things to drink, our words can contain and carry many different kinds of things They carry creative power.
God said that there’d be light and there was light.
God created everything that we see with words. So words have creative power.
The Bible doesn’t say that god thought let there be light, and there was light.
God said let there be light, and there was light.
So we see in the very beginning of the Bible, what I think we can say is a pattern for how to get things done.
So your mouth can be filled with creative power that you speak out over your own life, the life of the people you love, your city, the world, with your mouth, you can speak against the enemy.
You can stop his action in your life by speaking the word of god, the devil talked to Jesus, and it and the Bible says in Luke 4, the devil said to Jesus, and Jesus said to the devil, and he would quote a scripture back to him.
I don’t know how many of you talk back to the devil, But if nobody’s ever told you to do that, you should begin to talk back.
He talks to you Talk back. Just like your kids talk back to you.
Start talking back to the enemy. I don’t want you to forget what I’m saying.
You have the ability to speak creative, powerful words over your life, over the lives of your loved ones, but you can also speak destructive words, things that will hurt you over yourself, your future, Be careful what you say about your future.
Prophasize your future. Declare what you want to see happen and what god says can happen rather than just talking about being afraid that you’re gonna have more of what you’ve always had.
Amen? Alright. Proverbs 1019.
With many words, Transgression is not lacking, but whoever restrains his lips is prudent.
And we’ve been talking this weekend about discipline and self control.
So this says that if you restrain our discipline or control your words, then you are a a prudent person And that means you’re a good manager of the power that god has given you in words.
I can go at this a number of different ways, but I have a specific way that I want to teach this this afternoon, and it’s about how your words affect the anointing of god on your life.
Now when I first became a serious student of the Bible, and I’d been in church a long time before that happened.
I went to church regularly for probably oh, 7, 8, 9 years before I really I loved god And I was born again.
I was saved by grace. I know I would have gone to heaven, but I I wasn’t real serious about my relationship with God.
You know, I think for a lot of people, they want god in their life, they wanna make sure that they don’t go to hell, but they’re not living for god.
That’s not what their life is all about.
And Paul said to live is Christ, to die his game.
In him I live and move and have my being.
In Matthew, it says seek first.
The kingdom of god and his righteousness, and everything else in your life will be taken care of.
So god is not a sideline. He’s not an insurance policy.
It should be the main thing in our lives.
And so I had I had god, but let’s just say he didn’t have me.
I don’t even know what I mean by that. Okay. I had him.
I wanted to go to heaven I wanted to pray and get help when I had problems, but I had not surrendered my life to him.
And so when I began to really seriously study the word of god, One of the things that was happening at that time back in the seventies was a great outpouring of the Holy Spirit all around the earth.
It wasn’t just in one place or one denomination or happening in one little group, but it was actually happening all over the world.
And god does that at different times throughout history, they’re called revivals.
It’s times when god just shows up and shows out for a period of time.
And it revives the church.
Now we don’t live in that all the time, but I’m thankful that I got to be part of that because my life was touched in a very deep way.
And it was also a time when the Holy Spirit seemed was giving a special grace for people to just love, love, love, love the word.
I mean, it was nothing at all to have a 3, 3 a half hour church service.
I mean, today, you, you know, you move them in, you move them out, you have 3 or 4 services in one morning, and everything was 10 minutes of this and 5 minutes of that.
And you know, I understand that we have different arrows and different times in life.
And but I tell you there’s not too many people today that would endure a 3 a half hour.
Church service. And so it was a special time, and I believe there was a special anointing, and it was nothing to go to a week long, what we called camp meetings, where you might go to church three times a day for 7 days in a row.
And sometimes even a whole month of revival. And we just we just didn’t get tired of it.
I mean, we just love the word, the word, the word, the word, the word.
Well, one of the things that we heard a lot of teaching about then that we don’t hear as much about today, and I think that it’s something we should hear more about is the anointing.
Just the anointing.
Now when I say the anointing, there might be some people here that don’t even know what I’m talking about.
So what is the anointing? The anointing is the presence and the power of god in and on your life And many times, we are anointed for certain things.
So there’s the general anointings on our life as believe but then god can anoint us for special things.
I’m anointed as a Bible teacher. That means that god has called me and equipped me to do this.
Now the anointing is very, very important.
And we know that everything that god gives us comes to us free Jesus paid for it, but In some ways, it’s not free.
I believe that there are certain things that we can do that will hinder the anointing, and there are certain things that we can do that will increase the anointing.
I heard one minister say if he wanted to increase the anointing on his life before he got up to speak, if he felt like maybe he wasn’t sensing god’s presence real strong, he would just spend some extra time reading the word and the anointing on his life would increase.
Maybe a little extra prayer in the anointing on your life will increase.
But if you don’t know what the anointing is and if you don’t know how important it is, then you could actually be doing things that are hindering the anointing on your life and not even realizing that you’re doing it.
And one of the things that you will find out very definitely, and I’ll back it up scripturally is that speaking wrong words, will hinder the anointing on your life.
Another thing that will hinder the anointing on your life is mistreating people.
God is very picky about how we treat his children.
He doesn’t like it when we mistreat people, He doesn’t like it when we talk bad about people, our spread rumors, our gossip, our slander them, actually, I think it’s probably one of the more dangerous things that we can do.
And we need to get a little bit wiser and have a little more reverential fear of how we treat people and how we talk to them and how we talk about them.
Can anybody act like they agree?
So It took me a long time to get here, but I can tell you that I have a reverential fear of mistreating people.
And if I do, have an off day, and I mistreat somebody.
It only takes about 5 seconds for the Holy Spirit to spank my little spiritual bottom.
And I will quickly go back and apologize.
For example, I would not get up in this pulpit and try to preach if I was mad at anybody.
I absolutely would not do it because I believe that it would affect and hinder the anointing on my life.
And I feel like that that’s the main thing that I have is god’s anointing.
Thousands of people are not gonna gather together in a building on a weekend, take a weekend of their life, to listen to somebody talk if they’re not saying anything that really has an influence or an effect on their life.
Now you may not you may not really know what the anointing is, but it means I’m up here speaking, but it’s actually god using me to speak to you.
So therefore, the words that I’m speaking have an effect on you that sometimes you don’t even comprehend and understand.
Now two people can get out and speak the same message I mean, it could be word for word.
And if one of them is not anointed, or maybe they’re trying to do that and they’ve got all kinds of junky stuff going on life.
And so there’s no anointing there, it can almost put you to sleep.
And you won’t have any interest in hearing them.
You don’t really get anything out of You don’t remember what they said, but somebody who has a close walk with god, they’re not not perfect.
Nobody’s perfect. But, I mean, they’re they’re repenting when they do things wrong.
They’re trying to be careful how they live. They’re living to please god.
I mean, how many of you know there’s difference in just doing it and being serious about it.
Well, then that person can carry a very strong anointing on their life.
And what they say can literally, it just like penetrates beyond your brain and goes into your heart and and you get not information, but revelation.
There’s a difference in somebody just giving you information and somebody giving you something.
It’s like, I I get it. I get it.
How can you possibly have somebody accidentally turn the television on in the middle of the night?
When they’re trying to turn it off and get some certain preacher that says just some certain something, and then them say, it changed my life.
How do you change a life with a sentence?
Well, god can do anything he wants to, and he’s looking for people to use that will live their lives in a way where they can carry a very strong anointing on their lives.
It’s interesting to listen to people, try to talk about the anointing who really don’t understand what it is.
We’ve had people say things like, I came to that meeting, and I don’t know what it was.
But there was something in the room that just was like nothing I’ve ever felt before.
Well, you know, when it’s great to have one anointed person, but when you get in the middle of a whole room full of anointed people, Come on now.
Because here here’s the fact.
As a believer, we are all anointed by god. Come on.
There is an anointing that abides on you, that’s why the Bible says, for example, lay hands on the sick and they shall recover.
Well, what would you lay in your hands on somebody in praying for them have to do with anything.
Well, the anointing actually is tangible and can be felt and transferred.
So I think we need to be doing more of what the Bible says than what we are.
Hello? What are you talking about?
Well, first of all, Jesus is the anointed one.
So he was anointed by his father There’s father god, and there’s Jesus who’s god, and there’s the Holy Spirit who’s god.
We don’t understand that kind of math, but one god, three persons, I don’t understand it in my head, but I get it.
And we can fellowship with and have relationship with all three persons of the godhead, and they each do something specific for us.
When Jesus left, ascended on high. He didn’t leave us alone.
He said, I’ll be with you always.
Well, what he did was he sent the Holy Spirit The anointing, the presence of god, the spirit of god is the presence of god He sent the Holy Spirit to represent him to act in his behalf, and he said he has been with you, but now he will be in you.
Come on. Get a hold of that. Now he will be in you.
So he told the believers to go wait in the upper room until the promise on from on high came to them.
And that promise from one high was when the Holy Spirit descended on the
day of
Pentecost is recorded in acts chapter 2.
Now, I don’t know why it is that religion tries to hide all those wonderful things that happened in acts chapter 2, but I mean, as they waited in the upper room, suddenly, I don’t know about you, but I I could use a suddenly in my life.
Come on. Suddenly, like a mighty wind.
And it said there appeared unto them tongues of fire and settled on each one of them, and they all began to speak in tongues or different tongues are foreign languages as the spirit gave them utterance.
Now I’m gonna do a big long teaching on speaking in tongues and just freak out a bunch of you who already think that’s from the devil, which it’s not, by the way, but Let me tell you that just because you have not experienced something doesn’t mean that it’s not real.
And we’re being very foolish if we take what any denomination says over what the word of god says.
And then now
So bottom line is is the first thing that god did was touch their tongues.
Is anybody in the building today.
I said the first thing that god did was touch their mouth.
He set their mouth on fire.
Well, they were obviously acting a bit strange because it was 10 AM in the morning, and everybody thought they were drunk, which tells me that a really holy ghost filled on fire Christian may act a little bit odd from time to time.
Now I don’t think we just have to get out in the world and see how weird we can be.
I think we need to use common sense and constraint and pay attention to who we’re around, but the bottom line is is Jesus didn’t die so we could just continue to be miserable believers.
He died for us so we can have, I mean, a vibrant, powerful, spirit filled on fire Victoria’s overcoming life.
And if you really know god, the way he wants you to know him, you cannot be bored with Christianity.
And one of the things that god did was when he sent the Holy Spirit, when Jesus sent the Holy Spirit, was he brought gifts with it.
He brought powerful gifts with him. There’s 9 of them specifically. There’s 9 fruit of the spirit.
There’s 9 gifts of the spirit. And I believe that they’re both equally important.
I don’t advocate putting the gifts above the fruit because, to be honest, I know people with gifts that have no fruit.
They’re just as flaky as a corn flake. You know? And that’s that’s not what we want.
But god gives us a word of knowledge, word of wisdom, discernment of spirits, and that is so important, man, Should you ever pray for discernment?
The Bible says that we are to pray for and seek and pursue the gifts. Of the spirit.
So if you don’t do anything else at all with what I say this afternoon, please go home and start praying.
God please fill me fill me with the power of your Holy Spirit, pray every day for god to fill you with the Holy Spirit.
Because we need to be ever filled with the Holy Spirit.
I don’t want a one time touch from god that’s supposed to last me the rest of my life I need a fresh touch every day.
That’s why I get myself out of bed in the morning and go spend time with God.
Let me tell you if we would act like we were desperate for god, then we wouldn’t be so desperate in our circumstances all the time.
And at least we can crawl out of bed 15 minutes early and go say, God, I am not gonna make it through this day if I don’t have a touch from you.
And so I need you to touch me today.
You wanna carry an anointing on your life?
And anointing is just gonna well, people are just gonna know there’s just something about you.
I don’t know what it is, but there’s just something And they’re just gonna like being around you.
You’re gonna have favor. You’re gonna know things that you don’t know how you know them.
You’re gonna have the right answer at the right time.
If somebody has got a evil spirit in them and they’re trying to be friends with you, and they’ve got a wrong motive.
There comes that gift of discernment.
You’re gonna say, I don’t know what it is, but I just gotta check about that person.
And then there’s other things that, you know, gift of faith, working of miracles, The gift of faith is a kind of faith that goes beyond anything.
We all have faith under every man is given the measure of faith, but the gift of faith is something that goes beyond that.
It’s like a faith that you don’t even understand why you have it.
And I believe that god gave Dave and I a gift of faith to step out and do what we did when we started this ministry.
I don’t have time to tell you that story, but what I am doing makes absolutely no sense at all if you knew where I came from, my level of education And the condition I was in when god called me to do this, I wanna tell you what, god If god can speak to a prophet through a donkey, he can use you and he can use me.
Amen? Well, how do we expect god to use your mouth to change other people’s lives if you’re gonna try to use it the other half of the time, to cut people down, to slander people, to gossip about people, to be negative.
Change, Tony. Come on. And so our words have a lot to do with the anointing on our life.
