Sermon Transcription
One day you'll be $100,000 in debt. God says now you're going to work it off, you're going to pay the $50, and you're going to learn your lesson. Folks, I paid that that money off. It was a miracle to get an unsecured loan at that time. God has his ways of doing it. Don't you try to figure it out. Don't look for a 90-foot angel who's going to come around. Don't even look for a midget angel. Don't look for any kind of an angel. My God fixed my problem, and I'm telling you now, and I'm not going to belabor this, I'm not going to go much further, but I'm telling you that God told me to come to you this morning because many of you hearing me have got, you're in the need of a miracle either in your home, your family, your marriage, your finances, and I'm telling you if you will trust God, the Lord said of the demons, this can't come out, these kind don't come out unless you fast and pray, but the fasting and prayer I think was to get the doubt and unbelief out of the disciples. I'm here to tell you that I believe with all of my heart, and I know I'll be tested on, I'm about to tell you, but I believe with all of my heart that there's nothing in my life or my family that God can't fix. There's nothing that he can't restore. In closing, I want to read, I'm telling you that God can even fix your sin problem. This is his greatest work, but we get so many like this. Here's a prisoner who writes, Pastor Dave, I'm a sexual pervert. I know I wasn't born that way, but it's what I've become. I've been married three times, and I have four children. The real truth is that I like anything when it comes to perversion. If you can think of it, I've probably tried it. I said, Pastor Dave, if I were to tell you everything I've done, it would take pages and probably make you so sick. Then he goes on, I want to stop, and yet I don't. I've pleaded, I've cried, and I've begged God for help. I've quit smoking cold turkey. That was no problem. I've even been able to stay away from pornography a little time at a time. I know I can't of my own get away with my habits. I believe in the healing power of God, but it seems I can't find the door to escape. My desire to do the Lord's will is ever with me, and yet I push them aside, and I fall back in the lust of my flesh. I've lied to God only to do it over and again. I hurt because I know that I made God sick. When I go to chapel, I feel two-faced because there are men here who respect me because I've given them good advice and not kept it myself. I play the piano in chapel, and I sing, but I don't feel right because I am not right. I am in prison for my addiction to sex. I'd rather die and go to hell than ever bother another innocent person again in my life. I hate what I do, and yet somehow I love it. I hate it enough though to want out because I want to serve God, and I want his love, and I don't want to die and go to hell. I don't know what to do. Folks, I'm saying to this young man that God can fix his perverted mind. God can heal that mind. There was a time I gave up on homosexuals. The king to me wanted healing because I'd seen so little healing. We once had a home for homosexuals, and it ended in disaster, and all our drug programs worked and alcohol, but homosexuals didn't see the victories. But folks, the Lord began to send testimonies to me of those who've been delivered from the worst perversions on earth. Homosexuality, if you have a son or daughter, or if you're here and you're involved in some kind of perverted activity, and I'm going to tell you something, folks. I'm saying this now, but the time is coming very short in America. I can't talk to you like I'm talking to you now without going to jail. I won't be able to mention homosexuality without being politically incorrect, and I could be sued, and it's come to that in America. But I say it in love, and I say it with deep heartfelt love, that God is able, if you want freedom, if we're not here to condemn anybody into any kind of perversion, and you say, well, don't call my homosexuality perversion. I am not the Bible is. The Bible is calling that. Folks, no clapping, please. No clapping, please. But I'll tell you right now, I don't care what kind of habit you have. I don't care what kind of lust has laid hold of your heart. My God can restore you. My God can break that habit and set you free, but you've got to believe with me right now that nothing in your life is impossible with God. Nothing that's happened. No clutch of the devil that can't be released. I want you to get a hold of faith when I give this invitation today, and I want you to believe God to absolutely change and transform your life. Hallelujah. Will you stand? Hallelujah. Heavenly Father, I thank you this morning for the confidence that you've placed in my heart and the confidence you want to place in the heart of every believer here this morning, that absolutely nothing that is in my life or that affects my life is impossible with you. You can truly restore and heal and fix everything that's gone wrong. Lord, what a simple word we've heard this morning, and I believe it was from your heart. You knew exactly who would be here. You knew those who are going through the trial of their life. You know of the marriages that are here where there is trouble. God, deep trouble. It can't be denied that the difficulty that's come of the enemy. There's a sense that the enemy is trying to destroy the home. Oh God, I don't know why you had me preach this this morning, but I know you knew who would be here. You knew every seat and who would be in it. God, by your Spirit, bring hope, bring restoration, and bring faith that you'll fix it. You'll heal it. You'll restore it. In Jesus' name, amen. Now, in the annex, I'm going to give an invitation now, and in the annex, those who feel that this message is for you, you've had unbelief and doubt. You have thought in your heart that this is too far gone. There's no hope. I don't know what it is, but I want you, don't go to the screen, but go between the screens, if you will. Just step out, and Pastor Neal Rhodes will be there, and he'll take you to the room, and we have wonderful prayer counselors and those who will minister to you, but you just go forward, and here in the main auditorium, upstairs, you go to the stairs, leave this side, come down. Here on the main floor, the Holy Spirit's talking to you. He said, Brother Dave, this message is for me. This message is for me. If you're not right with God, if you're not saved, if you're backslidden, come with these that are coming. I'm going to pray and ask God to release you. I'm going to ask God to do this miracle in your life. Now, please don't come if it's a financial problem. We'll pray for you in your seat. We don't try to pack up this altar. We want those who are being dealt with by the Holy Spirit, and if He is dealing with your heart. Some of you are backslidden. Some of you walked in this church today, cold. You slipped away. The fire is not burning in your heart anymore, and the Lord wants you to come back. There'll never be a better time. You're surrounded by people who care. You feel the tug and pull of the Spirit? Don't come unless that tug is there. You feel that pull of the Holy Spirit? Respond to it. Don't reject. Don't reject the wooing, the calling, the tugging of the Holy Spirit. Up in the balcony, I said, follow those who are going down either side. You come down any aisle and meet me here. We'll be praying in just a moment wherever you're at. Father, find every heart that needs to be fixed. Some that are broken. Some, Lord, that have been wounded. God, heal those wounded hearts this morning. Those, Lord, that are sin sick. They're sick of their sin. God, break the chain that binds them, I pray. In Jesus' name, amen. Come as they're sick. He's able to handle anything that comes my way. He's able more than able to do much more than I could ever dream. He's able more than able to make me what he wants me to be. He's able more than able to accomplish what concerns me today. He's able more than able to know anything that comes my way. He's able more than able to do much more than I could ever dream. He's able more than able to do much more than I could ever dream. You've taken a step, and I'm reminded of what the Father answered Jesus when Jesus said, only believe. He cried out, Lord, help my unbelief. And I want you to do that right now. Just stand before the same Savior and just say, Lord, help my unbelief. Right now. Just tell him right now, Father, forgive my unbelief. Help my unbelief. Holy Spirit, give me the faith of Christ. Implant in me faith. Implant in me confidence, O Lord, because I don't have the ability and the power. Lord, you've given me a measure of faith, but increase that measure that all of us have. Lord, I want to truly believe you for the problem in my life. God, I want to believe you now on my job. I want to believe you in my relationships. I want to trust you that you'll work out all of these things. I want to find out all of this, even the aisles, wherever you're at, and in the annex. I want every one of you who can honestly say, Pastor David, I need a miracle in my life. Raise your hand, please. I need a miracle in my life. Yes, yes. In the annex. God bless you. When God says he does the impossible, he's saying, I do miracles. I do miracles. I do miracles. Hallelujah. And he wants to do that for you. You know what the miracle is? First of all, he'll give you peace. That's the miracle in a day when you can't get peace by any human effort. Because the peace, you go right outside here this afternoon in the afternoon shows, matinees, and you look at the people who come out after paying $70 and $80. You come out, watch those people, see if you can find a smiling face. See if you see anybody has evidence of peace. You can't get it. You can't buy it. That's the first miracle. He gives you peace. When you rest in him and his promises, if you believe that he's going to work it out and he's going to fix it, you don't tell him how. You say, Lord, I'm going to believe you and I'm going to wait on you. It may take a little time, but God will do it in his time, but it'll never be late. It'll be just the right time. You believe that even. You believe that right now. Secondly, there'll be a still small voice speaking your heart and giving you directions, but he won't do that unless you're in the word. You're going to hear a false voice unless you're saturating yourself with the word of God. Find it here first. If you don't find it here, the Lord will give you. There'll be a word behind it saying, this is the way to walk you in it. Someone will come to you. The Lord will drop the word into your heart and he'll be faithful to you. Now, I want you to believe God as I pray. Every one of you. And in the annexes, I want you to believe God with me right now, that when you walk out of this church, you carry with you an absolute confidence that God's going to fix that thing in your life. Whatever it may be, God's going to fix it. Heavenly Father, I take your authority now in Jesus' name over the principalities and powers of darkness arrayed against all your people. And I pray for those that have come to be restored, first of all to you, and then to someone else that they need to be restored to. Father, I pray that you come now and you implant by your Holy Spirit confidence and faith in your word. Lord, we believe you in this church. We believe you've told me not to have a bit of doubt, no matter how sick, no matter how horrible it looks, no matter how ghastly it looks, no matter how hopeless it looks, to hold on and believe God in the face of it. I want you to pray this with me right now, Jesus. First of all, I'm going to ask you. Hey, look at me. You've got to pray this from your gut. It has to come from your gut, inside. Say it right out loud, Jesus. Jesus. I can't do it myself. I can't do it myself. But I came down this aisle. But I came down this aisle. And I came to you here now, Jesus. Because I have to have a miracle. Jesus, cleanse me. Forgive me. Heal my spirit and all my wounds and all my hurts. I lay them on you, Jesus. Holy Spirit, come now. I need faith. Take my unbelief and remove it from my heart so that I can truthfully say I'm committed to God restoring everything in my life. I love you, Jesus. And I give you thanks now in advance. Now just thank him. Just give him thanks. Just give him thanks. Lord, I give you thanks. I give you thanks. Now I want to pray for all of you that have unsaved loved ones. I want God to come to you now. Honestly, I feel in my spirit. I don't know this to be a fact, but I gather that from the talk I hear from people, what I see and what I hear, and what I hear from the Holy Spirit, that a great majority of Christians have given up, literally given up, praying and believing God for their unsaved loved ones. I'm asking you right now to get a hold of faith and say, God, I'm not going to do that again. I'm going to fast. I'm going to pray. And I'm going to believe you for the salvation of my entire family and those that you've been praying for in your relationships that God will save. Father, in Jesus' name, I pray a prayer of faith now that you will cause a tide to rise up in our hearts of faith that we will believe God for what seems to be impossible. Lord, for unsaved children, unsaved husbands, unsaved wives, fathers and mothers. Lord Jesus, you said, thou shalt be saved in thy house, and I believe what you said. I believe that and I receive it. Lord, answer this prayer in Jesus' name. Amen. Hallelujah. Let's sing, Lord, I believe. All things are possible. Lord, I believe. Do you know that one? Lord, I believe. Okay. Okay. I don't want to have to lead this. My voice, you don't want to hear it. All right. Lord, I believe. Lord, I believe. All things are possible. All things are possible. Lord, I believe. Lord, I believe. Sing it. Lord, I believe. All things are possible. Lord, I believe. Lord, I believe. All things are possible. Lord, I believe. Raise your hands and sing it. Just lift your hands. Lord, I believe. Oh, Lord, I believe. Possible. Yes, Lord, I believe. Possible. Lord, I believe. Hallelujah. Glory to God. Lord, we believe. Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. Please don't forget, in the annex, go to room 204, and here in the main auditorium, the stairs and down, go through exit 8 and 9, down here to my left and your right. And I believe we have somebody got pastors. I'd like them to go backstage and meet me right after service here now. Would you turn around to 10 people and say, God can fix it? Come on, just say, God will fix it. God will fix it. God will fix it. 3 o'clock, 6 o'clock. God bless you and be with you. Jesus, you're my firm foundation. I know I can stand secure. Jesus, you're my firm foundation. I put my hope in your holy word. I put my hope in your holy word. Jesus, you're my firm foundation. I know I can stand secure. Jesus, you're my firm foundation. I put my hope in your holy word. I put my hope in your holy word. I have a living hope. I have a living hope. I have a future. I have a future. God has a plan for me. This I know. This I know. Jesus, you're my firm foundation. I know I can stand secure. Jesus, you're my firm foundation. I put my hope in your holy word. I put my hope in your holy word. Jesus, you're my firm foundation. I know I can stand secure. Jesus, you're my firm foundation.
