That's as far as I'm going to read. Let me repeat it Even all of you who know his name Heavenly Father teach us the name of Moab tonight It's important to understand the spirit of seduction that's in the Church of Jesus Christ All Holy Spirit open our eyes tonight Help us Lord to stay with this message until we comprehend it make it easy to be understood Holy Spirit Come now open our eyes Truly, there's a seduction in the church and it's not enough to say the devil's behind it. The devil uses devices He uses people he uses systems and we've got to understand these devices We've got to be aware of the Lord so that we can understand the righteousness of Christ Lord only as we see the blackness of sin and we can name it and we can expose it only then do we have the Power over it. Oh Jesus you've done that at the cross, but you have given us keys tonight from your scripture Expose Moab to our eyes so that never again will be ignorant We'll stand as men and women before others who are living in sin and be able to expose these hidden hidden areas in Jesus name Holy Ghost Expose Moab in our midst tonight. Amen Now when I first read this I said, oh god, I don't know Who Moab is and I'm to mourn for him all of you who live around him all of you know his name In fact, you're supposed to start preaching. It says say how has the mighty scepter been broken a staff of splendor? There's going to be a crushing of Moab There's going to be a breaking of a seduction and if you don't even know how it is, how can you preach it? God, I don't know who Moab is. I don't even know what it means the Holy Spirit came to me in prayer one night and said Turn to a certain scripture and it didn't make sense. It was an Isaiah. I think it's a 15 chapter It was all Moab Moab Moab And God says David you're gonna learn who Moab is and then he directed to me to this and when I saw this even all of you who know his name I Began to cry in my heart Oh God, what does that mean? Teach me who Moab is if I'm to proclaim and Warn that his scepter has been broken. His power has been broken. I've got to know who his name is Moab is the evil force behind all the apostasy that's in the world tonight It's a spirit of Moab that destroyed Israel and believe me these spirits that started in the Old Testament have not died They are with us today, you're gonna find it all the way to the book of Revelation tonight I'm going to take you right through it. Like Moab has always stood from the very beginning for compromise Now remember that Moab was born out of an incestuous Relationship between Lot and his daughters And by the way, you know that judgment doesn't burn out sin God is burning down Sodom and Gomorrah and you'd think that that would burn out the sin wouldn't you but lots two daughters are up in A cave with lot their father getting him drunk so they can lay with him and they commit incest with their drunken father Well, the city is still smoldering while Sodom and Gomorrah still smoldering And this is what the scripture says in Genesis 19 don't turn but let me read it Genesis 19 31 to 37 They said let us make our father drunk Let us lie with him and on the mile the firstborn went in and lay with her father He didn't know it and the firstborn bore a son and called his name Moab Here's the father the more bites to this day Now Moab is the seed of lot lots name means failed or cover over cover up He's the one who lived in sin and cover he lived in Sodom And he was the one who vexed his soul and learned to hide and cover his sin Even though God's testimony of them was that he had been a righteous man Now I'm a father. I have four children two daughters I have never understood half this father who God called a righteous man. Now, I believe that's the way life started I don't believe at this time He was a righteous man because when that mob came he offered his two virgin daughters to that wild mob No wonder they found it so easy to get him drunk and commit incest they've lost respect for my was in Sodom Can imagine how those girls were trembling when they heard that mob outside the door and they heard their father's I've got two virgin daughters Nobody's touch. I'll send them out to you. You do with them what you please. I don't understand that Bob's got a little baby girl Can you understand that Bob how a loving father could offer his two virgin daughters to a wild mob? Incredible what kind of a spirit was on that man? these daughters evidently had no respect for and they've two incestuous sons and Moab is the father of the mobites to this day It's a man of mixture a double-minded person a man who covers up sin Now even in the birth of this grandchild, it's a mixed blood. It's an inbred blood It's the child of incest a child of immorality a child of mixture Now Moab the name itself means one who comes out of father One just like father. In other words. He was just like what what I was in What was in Moab now, of course Moab grew up to become a father of a very corrupt people Never when Israel crossed the the Red Sea on dry ground The enemies of God began to tremble Do you know I believe that all of those enemies they had heard about it and they were on all the mountains and Mount Peor Mount Pisgah and all those great mountains that could see all the way to the Mediterranean to the Red Sea And I believe they saw this miracle happening Israel crossed the Red Sea on dry ground and Moab was watching and trembling the leaders of Moab Trembling has gripped them. I'm reading from Exodus 15. Now. You don't have to turn there Exodus 15 verse 15 Terror and dread has fallen upon them by the greatness of thine arm. There are motionless a stone until the people pass over or Moab was on the mountain watching and there was they were paralyzed like a stone They were trembling at this people walking on dry ground right to the Red Sea Israel Remember was attacked by the Amorites the Amorites were the neighbors to the Moabites the Amorites had once defeated the Moabites and When the mob the Amorites came against Israel Israel moved right in and quickly subdued the Amorites the neighbors to the Moabites Then Israel struck the Amorites with the edge of the sword and took possession of their land and Israel lived in all the cities of the Amorites Now when the Moabites saw that Israel just moved right in conquered the Amorites Fear really kept their hearts because the Amorites had defeated them The Amorites were stronger than the Moabites and they're saying Hey the Amorites Defeated us they're stronger than us Israel marked much right over the Amorites like they were water and of course the Moabites then were truly trembling Balak the king of Moab and all his people heard Israel singing as soon as they conquered their neighbors the Amorites Here's what Israel began to sing. They could hear them singing at the hills were We're Gone with this sound wrong to you, Moab You are ruined all people of Chamos. That was their false God Because we've cast down the Amorites They're saying we're putting you on notice. Leave us alone Don't touch this. We're God's people. There was a wall of separation between the children of God and all rights and And Balak the king of the Moabites stands on Mount Pisgah And he looks over all these white tents of Israel and in his mind that mighty oaks that are being planted right there in Those great valleys that bordered their land the Bible says Now Balak the son of Zippor. Now, he's the king of the Amorites Of the Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites. He's king of the Moabites. So Moab was in great fear Because of Israel for they were numerous and Moab was in dread of the sons of Israel now Moab means one like father. I'm going to show you that that's the children of the devil that's the people living in sin that just like their father the devil the Bible says and The purpose of God has always been that people walk in holiness and send dread all through hell One holy man can send dread right through the portals of hell The devil seeks and trembles at a holy man or woman a praying man or woman with clean hands and pure heart all of hell trembles The Moabites were in dread of the sons of Israel and Moab said to the elders of Midian Now, of course the Midianites had been servants at one time To the Moabites and when you see Moabites that's the type of gods are the devil's children and the Midianites are type of demons I can prove that to you further on in the message because they did the will of the Moabites and More I've said to the elders of medium now this hard People will lick up all that's around us as the ox licks up the grass of the field Now Balak knows he's King the Moabite He knows that he doesn't have the strength to take on Israel and it's God in battle. So he calls Balaam a seer One who is known as a prophet and he these were superstitious people They believed that they could put a hex on Israel and drain them of their strength. They lived in this horrible superstition Now to fully understand the significance of what we're about to see you've got to understand the names Of the what what these names represent? We're going to talk about Balak and what his name represents We're going to talk about Balaam what his name represents? And of course, we're going to look at Moab now Balak in Hebrew and remember in Hebrew they were named after their characteristics Bala in Hebrew means a waster a destroyer Now Paul makes no bones about who that is He's he warns of Israelites who were destroyed by the destroyer and the word used here in Hebrew is venomous Serpent, who is the venomous serpent? You see now the king of the Moabites is the devil himself The Moabites are those who do his will one out of father You have your father the devil the scripture says and those who walk in rebellion and stubbornness all their father the devil The scripture makes it clear But those who are a father have a doctrine They have the doctrine of Balaam and you'll find this doctrine of Balaam off through the New Testament You'll find it all the way to book of Revelation now Balaam means simply seduction and to engulf It goes further than that. It means seduction through infiltration Seduction through Infiltration now, what do you think the devil's goal is for the Church of Jesus Christ in these last days? Not just to seduce the heart of church But to infill infiltrate the true church of Jesus Christ and seduce it come with it Infiltrate the church and seduce it and bring it down All right now this this is important that you understand this here you've got Bala who represents the serpent You've got Moab of people just like father and now you have a doctrine of seduction that's in their hand They're key to try to destroy the true people of God Well, I don't don't think that these truths and the Old Testament like Bob said are irrelevant to our day I'm gonna repeat a scripture he used this morning Now these things happen to them as an example and they are written for our instruction upon whom the ends of the ages have come Therefore let him who thinks let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall Now what let I look at this place it all starts They start by harassing the children of God from outside the camp That's where the devil always begins at this point. There's no mixture. There's a clear line between Moab and Israel in fact They they sang a song in Israel about the Moabites They taught their children about the danger of mixing with the Moabites They were told they have an idol. They have a God a false god called Shamos and you will not go near him There was a dread there was a fear in Israel for the Moabites in any Contact with them their children were taught to not even look not even talk to a Moabite They were warned before they ever got across the Red Sea. What's up for the Moabites? there was a song in Israel about it a Wall of separation And Balaam is called and three times this seer Stands at three different points first. He goes to the high place That was the chief place of worship and he goes with Balaam and Balaam says curse these people Of course God won't let Balaam curse. He winds up blessing Israel Secondly they go to Mount Pisgah, and he says this time. Maybe it was the wrong place Maybe here you get the inspiration he goes to Mount Pisgah, and he says now curse Israel for me put a hex on them And the Spirit of God comes on Balaam and he prophesies blessing And he's I'm gonna try one more time. It must be this older here. There must not be all right here We're going to go and get a different order for you So they go to my PR the highest point and King Barak says I'm giving one more chance awesome And of course this time he blesses and beyond anything you can conceive And Balaam says run for your life go You see There is no way the devil can hurt the Church of Jesus Christ from outside Not from any hot point anywhere outside The inner circle that's impossible. There has to be in filtration inside the camp. I Sense the doctrine of Balaam is what the seduction ends up to be you've got to understand something about this man In his background, let's look at Balaam because this is the evil force of Moab. This is the power of Moab This is the doctrine of the children of the devil the angels of light that come to deceive if we're possible Even the elected chosen of God they have a doctrine Believe me friends all of these false things that are creeping into the church now. There is a seduction of the church and They're all of one spirit they all have one thing in common, that's the doctrine of Balaam What is there about this man that's so dangerous that God despises it what is it about this man in his doctrine That in the book of Revelation you hear the heart of God in the vision to Jesus just crying out against it You hear it in Jude you hear it Peter. We'll look at it in just a moment Balaam is the grandfather of all the seductions in the church He's the grandfather of every immoral shepherd in the house of God the spirit of Balaam the spirit of Balaam is on every one of the seducers It's not another spirit. There is one Holy Ghost. There's always been one Holy Ghost There is one spirit of dark seduction and it's always been there's been the spirit of Balaam It's in the church today Balaam spirit is in the church in the hands of Moab I Look no no other prophet in the Bible had such an opportunity as this man of in fact he started out He started out with with a hunger for God first of all the scripture says he sought God for revealed word of direction He was committed to follow that direction It don't turn to it now, but in the 22nd chapter of Numbers You can look at it later the 22nd 23rd chapter of Numbers Balaam said to God Balak has sent for me. So he's talking to God. He's a man of prayer now, and he's seeking direction. He said Oh God Balaam said to God the scripture says Balak has said for me then Balaam confesses Jehovah before Balak and all his heathen princes. That's in verse 38 Numbers 22. He said to Balak and all of his representatives. I will speak only what God puts in my mouth Now that's quite a statement, isn't it? You can ask me what you want. You can tell me what you want, but I'm gonna beg God Have you ever heard preachers get in the pulpit and preach that I don't care. Nobody will tell me what to preach I'm gonna preach God. I'm gonna preach what God tells me. Well, that's all right. As long as you got a holy life behind it But a lot of men like that have the spirit of Balaam on them He had the fear of God upon him he refused the first time to go to it with Bailey He said go back for the Lord's refused. Let me go at this point. He's obedient The Spirit of God moved mightily on him causing him to prophesy in a divine ecstasy There was a divine ecstasy on this prophet The Bible says then the Lord put a word in Balaam's mouth not the devil, but the Lord put a word in Balaam's mouth Just about every man who preaches seduction in this nation today I can take you back to a time in their life when they were seeking God. I Tell you a time when they were not in error That church that's in the west coast that has all these satellite churches that are into this seduction of touching Where the pastor's got his own sweetheart and his wife's got his own sweet spiritual sweetheart And they have a touching room in the church And that's just the beginning and I can't go into it to be positive Bible said it's a shame to speak of the things They're doing secret. I can't even talk about it. The Lord shut my mouth about it. It's so evil It's so corrupt But those pastors are into that you can you can always go back 15 18 years before but there were men of prayer But there was a spirit upon them. There was a luster that was never dealt with There was a time the Lord had put a word in their mouth The scripture said he refused to disobey God's commandment. He said even you offered me a household of silver and gold though Balaam gives me a house full of gold and silver. I would not do anything against God That's what Balaam. That's what Balaam said More than that this man had a vision of Christ He saw Jesus Christ coming in his kingdom with dominion and power. Listen to the testimony of this man Balaam says I saw him. I beheld him a Scepter shall arise in Israel. That's a man with the vision of the Lord Jesus Christ Even Some of you can't say that now. I've had a vision of him. I see him arising with power and dominion and More than that His prayer was Oh God, let me die the death of the righteous He said let me die the death of the upright that my in be like theirs. I Want to die like the Israelites. I want to die like one of them You know the prayer of my heart prayer of my life has been Oh God that my living and that my dying be pleasing to you But you see when you're young man and you've got lust in your heart the older you get the more that becomes pronounced If you're a young man, you've got lust in your heart if you've got a situation I've been dealt with when you're an older man, it'll break out on you. It'll break out into a fire In spite of all of this Balaam had a divided heart he was an ambiguous man He was clinging way down deep to his lust as long as he was in an atmosphere where the Spirit of God was heavy Upon him as long as he was moving in that realm. He was all right It's just like some of you here. You're moving in the round There's rejoicing the Spirit Lord. The pure word is coming forth and you're encouraged and you're living in this light What is it going to be like when you go back outside? What's it like when you go home? What kind of a man are you going to be? kind of a woman He Goes back to his old lusting ways The spirits lifted from him now and There's something very terminal about this man spirit. There's something terminal about it It's beyond help because with the vision of Christ Spirit of prayer the spirit of ecstasy in spite of all this great prophecy Prophesied the very coming of the Lord Jesus Christ in glory and dominion There's a secret in his life He loved money He lusted after it Now evidently Israel is totally unaware of this scene up on the mountain This was just going about their ways totally unaware of this drama on the hills with Balaam They don't even know they're being blessed or cursed And I don't know if the tradition says that Balaam went to Israel and told them what he did He said Balaam hired me to curse you, but I blessed you and he expected them to give him money. I That's just tradition I really believe that he went back when the spirit consumed him he went back to King Balaam Because the scripture says that Balaam taught Balaam how to seduce Israel And he goes back and he says now I couldn't curse him But I'll tell you what I've got a secret and I know what that secret was I believe with all my heart the Balaam was either on Mount Peor or Mount Pisgah. He was there somewhere when Israel Backslid he saw their dancing lusting spirit He saw something in these people he had a key He said they claim to be men of God women of God, but they're a lusting people They've got all those little golden mice. They brought out he saw them in Their tents he saw them carrying around their little idols And in fact almost all those Israelites carried those little golden mice those little golden calves And the big golden calf about 17 inches high was just a bigger image of those little Golden ones in fact that was the God that was at Memphis in Egypt That that was the they came from all over to worship with Memphis this golden calf The one they built a replica of it in the the wilderness Balaam knew what was in the heart of these people he said I tell you what I've got a way that you can get to these people By The way do you remember when Balaam was on his way to Balak's territory an angel comes and stands before the donkey can you imagine a man talking to his donkey? I've never understood that Donkey, so I've ever done if I've ever hurt you and he said no you haven't he's talking his donkey Because when you have the will of God you just go insane you lose all your discernment, don't you? Any Discerning man would have known the donkeys talking to it. He's blinded now Well, I've heard some of the commentators say he imagined he heard the donkey You know what the Bible says the Bible says the donkey spoke. I believe the Bible The age of the Lord standing in front of donkey He's the angels crying out. He said I have come Balaam as your adversary for the way you're going leads to destruction and In the original Hebrew it says Balaam, I'm your adversary because you have become reckless You know, I'll tell you when there's sin in your heart there's a recklessness that always follows I'm amazed at how reckless people get who have a spirit of adultery on them They leave a trail behind them nobody's as blind as an adulterer they do the most stupid things There's a There's a preacher in America now pastors one of the great churches. I won't even name it or anything I won't tell you what it is a Newspaper article is about to come out and expose him because they have found over a hundred different receipts motel receipts He's left the trail of them all over the country And the angel says I've come as your adversary because you'll become a reckless man There's a drawn sword. He's been given an ultimatum You See the Holy Ghost is our comforter but there comes a time that he comes with us with a sword and he said you'll become a reckless person the sin that's in Your heart has led you to become reckless and God says it's enough. He said I'm your adversary now None what this I know what it is to have the Holy Ghost as my adversary You see Balaam now Go to numbers 25, let's start getting in the world. I'm gonna take you through the word and show you now Let's go to numbers 25 25th chapter of numbers Now remember the Midianites and the Moabites Worshipped Chamos and as they worshiped him they had dances They had they carried banners and they danced and they ate in front of their idols By the way, folks, don't tell me your TV isn't an idol. Why do you have all the furniture facing it? And you see they used to they would dance in front of the idols I had these great festivals their women would dance their seductive dances And Balaam saw evidently one of these festivities said now you got it. He said I'll tell you what they've been in the wilderness for a while Those men Have an evil eye. There's lust. They're full of lust. He said Don't don't try to get him away from their Jehovah. Tell him to bring their Jehovah over to your camp Look at it. Look at numbers 25 While Israel remained at Shittim now, this is right on the outskirts. This is on the border Moab the people began to play the harlot with the daughters of Moab for they invited the people to the sacrifices of their gods and The people ate and bowed down to their gods So Israel joined themselves to bail a pure The Lord was angry against Israel now look at me Israel Moab did not cause The evil that was in their hearts. It was there more. I brought it out. I can prove that to you Don't turn there but judges 312 the Lord Listen to it. The Lord strengthened Moab against Israel because they had done evil in the sight of the Lord Moab strengthened the hand or God strengthened the hand of Moab Because Israel's heart had already turned Israel's heart was not for God that lust had been built up in their hearts and God strengthened the hand of Moab against them You know the punk rockers that are in the church now They would not be there. They're not the ones who causing our young people to go astray Our young people have that lust in them because our fathers and mothers have not been training them Our fathers and mothers have compromised so much It's created the spirit in them and those punk rockers are just a creation of their own lust These bunkers are bringing out of them God strengthening the hand of the markers and the bunkers Because evil is already in the hearts Those who are teaching prosperity in America today Why then they're not bringing this spirit of materialism that spirit of material is already there and God? Strengthened a doctrine that would appease it because it was there God strengthened the hand of Moab because They had done evil in the sight of the Lord that brings out what Bob was preaching Ezekiel 44. He said yet. I'll appoint them To be keepers of my gates Now these new doctrines of seduction are proliferating now He's you know what the Bible says if my people had pure hearts He said I'd raise them up shepherds after my own heart. I'd give them pure shepherds. I'll make a statement I believe that every church deserves its pastor If you've got a praying congregation on fire for God you've got a man the Pope with its dead you can pray him right out You can place such conviction down on him you love him But you pray that God send the Holy Spirit God on him you begin to pray for him You begin to fast for him and I know churches all over America that write to me now Congregations and whole deacon boards and elders that are getting together because they don't want to lose their pastor But he's so dead he's so wrapped up in materialism. I pray God build a fire under him Lord annoyed him bring a word to us And if he won't do that pray him out Still love him, but pray him out hug him all the way out the door and Be his friend treat him as a brother But I'll tell you you've got a praying people and you're going to have a praying pastor You're gonna have a man God said if you're gonna go after my I'll give you a shepherd after my heart You know I didn't mean that was extra I didn't mean to put that in there Jeremiah cried out an appalling and horrible thing has happened in the land the prophets prophesied Falsely in the priest rule on their own authority my people love to have it so in that awful The prophets are prophesying falsely my people love it. They love it That's what amazes me this lack of discernment seeing people who love stuff that I can't even understand They love it. It's in it wonderful. I'm saying my god tear it down You See this doctrine of Balaam becomes a spiritual force behind Moab You'll find it all through the New Testament go to 2nd Peter 2 2nd Peter the 2nd chapter 2nd Peter 2 quickly 2nd Peter 2 verse 15 They have forsaken the right way they have gone astray having followed what Is that in your New Testament They have followed the way of Balaam the son of Beor Who loved the wages of unrighteousness? Will you skip over to the right and go to Jude 11 go to Jude 11 if you can't find you go to Revelation turn left I'm not being facetious some people. I think it's Bob calls him the white pages the ones that are hardly used Go to the 11th verse Woe to them for they have gone the way of Cain and For pay they have rushed headlong into the error of who? Balaam there it is again. I go to Revelation 2 Revelation 2 Verse 14 Revelation 2 14 It's right there But I have a few things against you because you have some there who hold the teaching of Balaam Who kept teaching Balaam to put a stumbling block before the sons of Israel to eat things sacrificed to idols and to commit acts of Immorality you see it there. It's all through the New Testament. It isn't you find it right to the last day That's why you fight Who teaches the doctrine of Balaam my lab? It's here in the church to the very last trumpet call you find it right through the New Testament No No, no, this is another truth that I want to understand about more before I go any further Moab keeps arising in God's house Because his name has not been known He has not been delivered a death blow There's been no anger against him because he's been unknown There's Not been a holy anger against him and that's why he survives now I want to show you something very profound at least in my mind When the Lord began to take this take me through the Bible and I began to see it. I it got almost It was an incredible experience to see how Moab would almost be delivered his death blow and rise up His death blow rise up Because you see Moab hides his name He's Been permitted to survive off to the Old Testament now because of ignorance of His name there's not been a holy anger against him and the purpose of this message tonight Is that the Holy Spirit wouldn't do you? With it not a jealousy for God with the jealousy of God against it And that's exactly what it was said of Phineas when we heard it when he went into the tent of Prince Zimri When Cosby the Midianite woman was brought into his tent You know when he went with the sword and got to rest in that tent if we live today You know we'd say don't go in there. Don't judge him He's probably winning her to Judaism Every servant of the Lord rises to answer his own master You don't know what's in his heart. Let the Holy Ghost deal with him. Oh He was full of the jealousy of God and he went in there and said in the name of Jehovah. You're dead God sent Moses to him you tell him I've made a covenant with him There's an everlasting priesthood and every man in this place every woman in this place that has a jealousy of our Holy God It's of that eternal priesthood of Phineas Glory be to God In fact, you can look at the word you see Jesus the Bible You know when Isaiah saw Jesus go into the temple making those cords Isaiah saw that picture and it says of him in the zeal of his house And it's the same Hebrew word used here with Phineas the jealousy of his father was eating him up the jealousy of God Tell Jesus don't go in there and judge those priests Don't go in and judge those money chambers you see him going through there cracking that whip Father's house you're gonna face enough We've got a candy cotton gospel, we've got an all-american Jesus we've created this all-american Jesus drinks wine He loves American. He loves Dallas Cowboys He's a buddy a back slapper likes to tell jokes Go preach that down to Haiti I Can't get off this. I got to get back on here I'm gonna we're gonna see if we can get a death blow on Moab tonight Go to Deuteronomy 2 What not to don't don't go this let me read it because I I get some other places got to take you Listen to this God said to Moses When when when they approached the Moabites listen to this Deuteronomy 2 9 don't turn just listen then the Lord said to me Do not harass Moab Do not provoke them to war For I will not give you any of their land as a possession because I've given our to the sons of Lot as a possession Now what that means is this, you know Moab is the son of Lot. He's a seducer He's a waste and that represents the kingdom of darkness. He says don't provoke the kingdom of darkness. We're not to provoke the devil We're not to provoke him Leave it alone. You've been transformed out of that kingdom of darkness Into the kingdom of light your place is Canaan land. That's your promise. That's the kingdom of darkness Leave it alone don't associate with it Don't mix with it come out from among them be a separate and clean and he's preaching the message of Paul What fellowship of light with darkness what photos of the sons of God with the sons of Bilal? He's drawn a line But Moab sets out now to seduce Israel with the Midianites and God declares war on Moab The moment the devil trust and filth take the church God declares war Now I want you to turn with me to numbers 24 Numbers 24 I will show you a declaration of war there were not up to this time to touch Moab But now God says Moab is trying to seduce my people Will You turn to numbers 24 Verse 17 this is Balaam prophesying and this is his vision of Christ Numbers 24 verse 17 I see him but not now I Behold him but not near a star shall come forth from Jacob and a scepter shall rise from Israel And what's this scepter who's Jesus Christ, what is Jesus Christ going to do to Moab and he shall cross through the head of Moab Moab and tear down all the sons of chef and Chef there means the sons of seduction He's going to take that spirit of seduction. He's going to deal with it. He's going to bring it down He's going to cross the forehead of Moab That's the declaration of war that God made against Moab because of the seduction All right, go with me to second Kings 13 second Kings to the right second Kings Do you love the word? What Bob was telling me that we both testify the fact that you've been easy to preach to because you've just been Following through and loving this word. He's making the Old Testament come to life. Just like we said didn't he do it? What's how it comes to life again tonight second Kings the 13th chapter verse 14 Verse 14 when Elisha Became sick with the illness of which he was to die Joe asked the king of Israel came down to him and wept over him and said my father my father the chariots of Israel in its horsemen and see Elisha is about to die and Elisha doesn't want to die until there's a death blow to Moab and Elisha said to him take a bow and arrows So he took the bow and arrows Then he said to the king of Israel put your hand on the bow He put his hand on it Then Elisha laid his hands on the king's hands and he said open the window toward the east and he opened it Then Elisha said shoot and he shot and he said the Lord's arrow victory Even the arrow of victory over Aram a-r-a-m now stop there just a minute. Look at me when Balaam Stood To curse Israel the first thing he said now don't turn you'll find it numbers 23 7 now Listen to me. Just look at me listen from Aram Balak has brought me from Aram. What is Aaron? It's the birthplace of the doctrine of Balaam It's Moab The Lord's arrow of victory the arrow of victory over who Aram over the seduction the spirit of seduction in the church The Lord shall victory over Aram for you shall defeat the Arameans At a fact until you have destroyed them Then he said take the arrows and he took them and he said to the king of Israel strike the ground and he struck it Three times and stop. So the man of God was angry with him and said You should have struck five or six times Then you would have struck Aram until you would have destroyed it But now you will strike Aram only three times And Elisha died and they buried him now the bands of the Moabites would invade the land in the spring of the year Hi, look at me It's the prophet mad at Josh He Lies who knows Who my abyss? There's a holy anger in this prophet against this doctrine He knows what it's going to do to the people of God He said to this king take that arrow Let me say what you feel about Aram strike Aram strike the ground one two three I Just angry He said you should have struck that down five six times. No, you're not going to defeat him You're only going to defeat him three times gonna rise up against you in the Bible said it Moab arose again Said you could have you could have dealt the death blow, but you don't have an anger against sin You don't have an anger against sin I've seen preachers do that one two three Peace safety you ever see those little arrows tappin Don't your heart yearn to hear a man in the pulpit Who knows who Moab is and get that arrow and strike it father six times? Said in the name of Jesus Christ the Lord enough of this seduction. That's it enough Hmm This King had no concept of the danger he didn't have the jealousy of God there's no fire against deception Just a half-hearted attempt And I grieve over preachers who don't know that there's a seduction in the land And then when somebody comes forth to expose it they make fun of him They don't have that Holy Zeal of God Elisha would burn against them I'm not even David hated Moab even David didn't have he didn't know who Moab was Now prove that to you go to 2nd Samuel 8th chapter the 2nd Samuel this this hurt me when I saw it. I just it just You have to go back to the left 2nd Samuel 8th chapter Let me show you something that's tragic I Felt like crying when I read it. I said old David a man after God's heart even you Perhaps if David had had that zeal against sin It would have been a different thing with Bashi, but I don't know I Don't want that to be speculation but this look at this verse 2 2nd Samuel 8 2 and speaking of David he defeated Moab and Measured them with the line Making them lie down on the ground and he measured two lines to put to death and look at this statement one full line to keep alive a whole line a whole Descendancy, he's going to keep alive and the Moabites became servants to David bringing him tribute and Solomon's going to pay the price All that look at it He lays the Moabites down in three lines And he says these two lines to death and he has his army destroy and kill them and all that There's quite a zeal against them Moabites. It's enough But over here, there's a whole line a whole descendancy that David allows to live Turn to first Kings 11 you'll see the price that his son pays First Kings 11th chapter Then here again, it's just it's tragic when you see it first Kings 11 verse 6 Gonna read verse 6 and 7 and Solomon I'll wait to get the first Kings 11 Verse 6 and Solomon did what was evil in the sight of the Lord and did not follow the Lord fully as David his father done Solomon built a high place for who? Chamos news Chamos the detestable idol of Moab on the mountain Which is east of Jerusalem and from Moloch the detestable idol of the sons of Ammon now look at me Please you could look right outside the East Gate you could walk right out of the temple door and off the East Gate over to the Mount of Olives and Right on the Mount of Olives, which from that time on was called the Mount of corruption He corrupted the Holy Mount of God You could see right on the Mount of Olives right out of the East Gate of the temple. You could see a Temple built to Chamos the God of the Moabites Because if David had dealt the death blow there would have been no more bites And the Moabites the first Idol that he turns to Chamos of the first false God he turns to the Moabites again find ascendancy and rise again in the land with their seduction and what we're seeing here is the whole house of Solomon the temple of Solomon being seduced from the inside again seduction to infiltration There it is Moab rising up again. No, holy anger. No death blow Solomon warned by God himself You See what it is. It's called a syncretic mixture It's the mixture of Jehovah with this mixture of the world the idolatry of the world And what are we saying right now in the United States of America? We're saying that's syncretic mixture We've got this idolatry coming in with the the worship of the Lord Now I'm gonna say it right out loud and clear and some of you may not like it But I do not like and I believe I'll be more and more men. We're playing do not like to see This pageantry in the Church of Jesus Christ This this trying to Put our instrument as Bob Bob pointed out and he's going to be preaching a message from Zephaniah tomorrow powerful message about putting our instrument to the work of God our tool and When we put our tool to it out, we try to choreograph for the Holy Ghost Now we go to the scripture and try to justify it There's no Spontaneous moving of the spirit now It doesn't come out of conviction of sin and that brings rejoicing that spontaneity now We've got to try to set a stage for it It's a syncretic mixture of idolatry and the worship of Jehovah and the devil satisfied to let you stay and Worship Jehovah as long as you let him in the door and Mixed with it if he knows if he can just start mixing with it. He'll take over That's why I'm against this punk rock and all this other junk that's in the church right now because it's more I've got his door. It's a doctor the Balaam God helping us. He's going to raise up Listen to what Ezra said Ezra said the Holy Race is intermingled with the peoples of the land and listen to this The rulers have been foremost in the unfaithfulness That's Ezra 9 2 Can I read it again? Are you listening? The Holy Race is intermingled with the peoples of the land. Is that what's happening in the church right now? Oh Holy race of God's people being intermingled with the idolatry the spirit of seduction and the church leaders are foremost in this seduction I Told you the other night what greased my heart that every punk group that I know in America today Everyone at these punk religious so-called religious groups. I've got a Pentecostal preacher behind them supporting them Pentecostal church saying a man go to it The leaders are the foremost in it Go to second Kings 3 second Kings 3 3 Dear old King Jehoshaphat refuses to give Moab the death blow second Kings 3 I Tell you what, I want to I want to start at verse 16 Second Kings the third chapter Then he said this is Elisha speaking the prophet. He said thus says the Lord make this valley full of trenches For thus says the Lord you shall not see wind nor shall you see rain Yet that valley shall be filled with water so that you shall drink both you and your cattle and your beast And this is but a slight thing in the sight of the Lord. He shall also give them all bites into your hand Now there's a promise God said if you'll have a holy anger against mob You're going to destroy him now you go against him and you wipe them out this this thing in Elisha These pop every one of the prophets Every prophet the Bible except Joel prophesied against Moab. And if you look close enough, you can see Moab even Referred to in Joel the only one I couldn't find but every prophet in the Bible every minor prophet of a major pop Every one of the prophets cried out against more every one of them. They know him And why should know him? Knew his name. He hated it. He despised it and time and time again this prophets trying to find a man who has Hatred against sin enough to give a death throne. He says God's going to deliver them all bites in here I look at verse 19 then you shall strike every fortified city speaking of the more bites Every choice city you're going to fell every one of the good trees and stop all the springs of water You're going to mar every good piece of land with stones now to me. That's a mandate to destroy Moab He said you go in there you tear down every tree in the land You stuff all of their springs and you set them up so they can't drink what you burn it to the ground That's a mandate to give a death blow to Moab if I've ever seen one Now go to verse 19 I will go to verse 24 but when they came to the camp of Israel the Israelites rose and struck them all bites so that they fled before them and They went forward into the land slaughtering them all bites They destroyed the cities needs one through a stone and every piece of good land and filled it So they stopped all the springs of water and filled all the good trees Well, it looks like mods about to go down the final death blow They left it stones However, the slingers went about it and struck it when the king of Moab saw that the battle was too fierce for him He took with him seven hundred men nothing. There's only seven hundred more bites left only seven hundred the whole armies gone They drew swords to break through to the king of Edom But they could not then he took his oldest son Who's to rain in his place and offered him as a burnt offering on the wall and there came a great wrath against Israel and they Departed from him and returned to their own land. Why do you think that wrath came upon them? They refused to give a death blow to Moab And look at they leave those 700 men and for some strange reason they walk off and leave 700 more bites Nothing could be clear They did not defeat Moab Moab rises again to become a power Not even Jehoshaphat They departed from him and returned to their own land Now listen Moab finally gets so brazen He moves into the temple into the very house of God and I'm going to show you something That if after you see this and you can preach prosperity you don't believe your Bible Now we've got some men here. We've got some young ministers, especially you've been seduced by this doctrine. I'll name it and claim it You've been seduced by this doctrine of prosperity And I'm going to show you conclusively from the Word of God that that's that is the spirit of Moab and God hates you I'll show it to you conclusively. You've got an open ear to the Holy Ghost. You're going to hear it Go to Nehemiah If you find Ezra Right before Nehemiah right after Chronicles I'm not being facetious. I want you to get there quickly and go with me to 13th chapter of Ezra I Mean Nehemiah, I'm sorry. I'm so interested in getting you to Nehemiah 13 I Can only find it There we are you have Nehemiah 13 All right on that day verse 1 on that day They read aloud from the book of Moses in the hearing of the people. There was found written in it that no Amorite. No Should what? Assembly of God He'd Been there a long time Because they did not meet the sons of Israel with bread and water but hired Balaam against them to curse them However, our God turned the curse into a blessing So it came about that when they heard the law they excluded all foreigners from Israel now look at this now prior to this Elias shipped the priest who was appointed over the chambers of the house of our God being related to Tobiah Had prepared a large room for him where formerly they had put the grain offerings and frankincense the utensils and the ties of grain wine and oil prescribed to the Levites the singers and the gatekeepers and the Contribution for the priest. I look this way, please Who's the priest Elias ship? You know what a lot of ship means Now you remember, you know that the whole book of Ezra and Nehemiah is about the restoration of Israel There are in a period of restoration. The walls have been rebuilt Correct Guess what a lot of ships name means Restoration, but it has another connotation as to meanings restoration and retreat Pull back compromise Restoration then retreat pull back compromise restoration man's way restoration without holiness He's Related to a man called Tobiah Look at it's in verse 4 now prior to this Elias ship the priest You see there's a restoration mentioned here But there's something strange about this particular kind of restoration because it's related to Tobiah Guess what Tobias name is Go to strong's concordance and prove me Tobiah means abundance prosperity and What does the last ship do with Tobiah he moves him into the house of God and puts him in the room Where they once stored the incense at the room where the altar of incense the incense room Do you understand that Tobiah Was related to the Amorites and the Moabites and What's the scripture says that no Moabite or Amorite shall ever enter the assembly of God They shall not even enter the house of God. That was thought that was the law of God But you see here's the high priest Elias ship it's a time for restoration Now folks, I am NOT preaching. It's anyone's doctrine of restoration or anybody's ministry tonight. God forbid Not at all I'm showing you a principle here. That's so clear as this hand in front of my face right now in front of you that there's going to come a false restoration a false restoration preaching before the true restoration of the remnant and This doctrine of prosperity that's being preached right now that has no cross to it. There's no preaching of holiness It's not a Tobiah. It's been moved in by a live ship. That's restoration with retreat pull back and compromise Elias ship prepared a large room for Tobiah in the house of God Listen Look at me this thing's gonna come down God's promised a death blow to it And even now he's raising up men with his jealousy He's raising up prophets and watchmen all over this nation that are crying out against this thing And he's doing in this conference. They're going to do it every conference where we are God's going to put his jealousy in our hearts. We're going to rise up against this thing and say this is the spirit of Moab That's in the church. This is the bar. This is restoration with compromise and we will not hug the devil. I Thank God for me, thank God For Nehemiah God finally has a man that's jealous with his jealousy Did Did Nehemiah he's in Jerusalem and he comes back and he finds out about this go to Nehemiah 13 So now don't read it. Don't get ahead of me, please. This is so beautiful and scary Don't read it look at me How many times you hearing it now don't judge oh How convenient for the devil But there'd be no judgment in the house of God And the same man who said that he said I had to stand up against Peter because he was in hypocrisy as were all those Who were with him? Paul loved Peter enough to tell him the truth He wasn't more to get over Peter. He loved Peter. I know Peter thanked him for it He knew that Paul loved him because of it She said it was hypocrisy I want you to listen to this now For all of you that have been afraid to put your finger on sin You've heard all this talk. Don't judge don't judge Well, you take a look you just listen it okay now time to read it Verse seven And I came to Jerusalem And I learned about the evil that Elijah had done for to buy by preparing a room for him in the courts of the house of God and it was very displeasing to me. So I threw all Tobias household goods out of the room Said then I cleaned up the room look at it He said then I gave an order and they cleansed the rooms Now returned that utensil the house of God with a grain offering of the frankincense Boy, he's a look at verse 11 So I reprimanded the officials and said why is the house of God forsaken then I gathered together and restored them to their post Here comes the true restoration The Levites are back in their place Everything's in order their fear of God's in their hearts now The true restoration is coming but I'll tell you if you go to verse 23 I'm almost embarrassed to read this See that they had been mixing with the world more by spirit and the doctrine of Balaam and swept through the church and Look at verse 23 in those days. I also saw that the Jews had married women from Ashdod Ammon and Moab As for the children half spoke the language Ashdod and none of them was able to speak the language of Judah But the language of his own people Everything was mixed up It he said but I didn't judge him he said I I just want to love everybody Not look at it said so I contended with them and I cursed them and struck some of them and pulled out their hair And I made him swear by God you shall not give your daughters to their sons and take of the daughters take of their daughters For your sons for yourself did not Solomon King of Israel sin regarding these things yet among the many nations There was no king like him He was loved by his God and God made him king over all is it nevertheless the foreign women caused even him to sin You see how awesome this was in his heart How this man hated sin, that's it Moab out Thank God for those who expose the seduction of Christianity Hmm My my my Now I'm going to show you something take a little deeper before I close I want to go back to Jeremiah 48 go to Jeremiah to the right Jeremiah 48 Show you a prophecy that in the last days God's gonna allow Moab to rise up again and test the church It's prophesied Then I find this rather chilling Jeremiah 48 go to verse 46 I Don't know if you knew this is in your Bible But there's a prophecy here that mobs gonna rise in the last day and test the church Woe to you Moab the people shameless have perished for your sons have been taken away captive and your daughter into captivity Yet verse 47. I will restore the fortunes of Moab in the latter days Declares the Lord thus far the judgment on Moab Look at me. I really believe that that's what's happening right now The church is being tested to see if we're going to be faithful and true to the Lamb The prophet Micah, would you go to Micah? You have to go to Micah with me, please. You've got to go to Micah And I want you to go to Micah the sixth chapter if you find Jonah no, but dia It's right near Micah the sixth chapter Won't thank God for his holy word. I'll tremble at it go to verse 5 my people remember now What what did he say remember now, come on Saints look at me remember get it in your mind now Saints What they let King of Moab counseled and what Balaam the son of Baal answered him and From Shittim to Gilgal why in order that you might know the righteous acts of the Lord Why are we to have my expo? Why do we name so we can know the righteous acts of the Holy God? We Ought to have this thing exposed before us and have the righteousness of Jesus Christ as our only motive Get to know these seductions and expose them so that the righteousness of Jesus Christ can arise in his church I Want to show you go back to Jeremiah 48 Jeremiah 48 How are we going to recognize Moab in these last days, it's been prophesied that he's going to be raised up again to test the church Jeremiah 48 verse 25 The horn of Moab has been cut off and the arm broken declares the Lord Make him drunk for he has become arrogant toward the Lord So Moab will wallow in his vomit. We also will become a laughingstock Right look this way I'm going to don't turn but I'm going to quote you from Zephaniah 2 8 I have heard the taunting of Moab and the revilings of the sons of Ammon With which they taunting they are taunting my people and they become arrogant against their territory. I repeat it I Have heard the taunting of Moab and the revilings of the son of Ab the sons of Ammon With which they are taunting my people and they become errant against their territory Now this holy place is our territory saints of God and Zephaniah the prophet says I've heard the taunting of Moab And you can tell Jeremiah said I have heard of the arrogant pride of Moab Moab is proud Moab is self-centered Moab is arrogant. And when you hear that sound in the pulpit, you can know it's the sound of Moab Frequency Arrogance now, let me tell you what I believe arrogance is. It's not just being a joker in the pulpit It's not even deep telling jokes have been flippant about God in the pulpit It's deeper than that. I believe arrogance is this and this is the spirit that's in many Shepherds today Since some of you before you came here, and I hope it's not here now, you know, I guess is Arrogant saying I know that God has judged two covenant ages for sin. I Know that for two covenant ages. He has dealt severely with sin I know that for two covenant ages just send to find you out But I'm different God sees something in me. That's just a little different than everybody else I've got somewhere deep in me something that God sees and Somewhere sometime somehow he'll bring me out of this. But meanwhile I'll get by with it It's an arrogance that listens to preaching like this that we've had all day today for my brother Phillips Preaching that you've heard from this pulpit tonight It's that spirit that says I'm different God Sees my heart Someday I'll make it through but in the meantime, I'll have to live with it His absolute pride that is arrogance Who do we think we are that God will judge all these covenant centuries and fill with sin? But you're God's little darling and you'll get away with it He was kept Arrogance What arrogance for a preacher in California to have three godly men come into his office with the goods and say Here it is. You've been living in adultery that man rise up said who do you think you are? I'm a man of God look at all those thousands of people. I preach to and the arrogance that heard from that man. Oh boy arrogance That's the spirit of my lab Adopted the Balaam You know what God wants from us? He wants us To have a spirit of humility and you know what you know what humility is to me now It's versus this spirit of arrogance. It's in the church Humility is simply staying open To where the Lord leads staying open I'm I have a message. I don't think I'll preach it up called breaking out And the Lord says the the prophet Micah says the breakers going to come forth. You know who the breaker is In fact that the Jews the first century Jews one of the names of the Messiah was the breaker out the breaker forth And he was he said he's gonna break through the wall and he said his sheep are going to follow him But see a lot of people breaking out their denomination of walls. Now, they're breaking out of all of their walls They're going out and following the Lord and says they break out here comes a group and they set up a little camp over here They say we're pre-trib. They set up their standards and their best to come on in our camp We come out now come on in with us then the mid-tribs come and say no you come in with us therefore on their banners and then the The post ribs some people ask me. What do you believe pre-trib mid-trib or post-trib? I said I believe and we can't lose to him Doesn't matter if Jesus comes to middle the beginning of the end he's got to go with me He's gonna go with us if I'm under the bread and walking in holiness. I don't care Seven years of tribulation he goes with me Lord a God we can't lose But then we got a group over here setting up a restoration camp. We broke out. Come on and join us Look, I'm gonna gonna start a repentance camp either you say come on with us. We're repentance people We may do this a year and go on do something else. I don't know But right now we're calling people to repentance But you're not gonna stop at anybody's camp why you're gonna follow the lamb with her every goes you're gonna go out with you Say well, I'm going with you. I'm not going to anybody's camp I've gone to heaven in spite of the fact. I'm with somebody's a guy You're going to have a spot in fact you're a Baptist And I'll tell you you're gonna have to love enough the day comes if there's a possible senior denominator You better follow the Lord get out You get out Don't you stop anywhere until you get there with him Lord, yeah, that's what humility is staying open and I'll tell you I don't want the spirit Wizard Elijah said I'm the only one left that's fighting sin. I'm the only one that hates the devil. I Don't want that's because that's pride that's arrogance I'm the only one left You know, I hear people everywhere I go. Well, it looks nobody's received my mess. I'm the only one in our neighborhoods preaching like this I'm being persecuted for it Okay, God's been deal with me because I've been right some of you on my mailing list I've been right now I'm saying hey I feel so alone. Somebody help me Husband deal with me about that because he'd been said hey I've got 7,000 about their need to bail him to these idols of the devil I've got 7,000. I want nothing to do with more than hate sin. Just like you do. I Have a he has a brand hood. He's got a holy people that are rising in the land. You may not know that They're doing it. They're here tonight. I know that They're in this house Glory to God Moab will be put to shame and it shall be shattered. I'm gonna give you one last scripture. Oh This is good. Jeremiah 48. Is that where you're at? Go to verse 11 I'll look at it. Moab has been at ease since his youth because nobody's disturbed him. Nobody been mad at sin Like this should be he's also been undisturbed on his leaves Neither has been emptied from vessel to vessel Nor has he gone into exile Therefore he retains his flavor and his aroma is not changed, you know the same, you know, there's nothing new in the church Yeah, Bob mentioned the battle between the Calvinist and the Armenians You go off your church history you find church seduction all through Every church age you had the antinomianist My goodness, there has been such error in the church It's always been the same but Moab has been resting on its leaves. It keeps its same aroma. It's the same smell It's always had because nobody's disturbed it It's not been emptied from vessel to vessel that nobody been dealing with it But on this last day God's going to send tilters and tippers look at it the next verse Therefore behold the days are coming declares the Lord. I will send to him Moab those who tip his vessels And they will tip him over and the original Hebrew says till they will tell They're going to come to Moab said there's enough. I'm going to I'm going to turn you over I'm going to spill you to the ground Look at the rest of it they will empty his vessels and shatter his jars and Moab will be ashamed to say most the house of Israel was ashamed a bit like Israel is ashamed of Bethel their confidence. Oh Look at me God's trying to raise up some tilters in this place to walk out of this conference With tip tip to hear what the prophet Jeremiah said say to Moab your day has come Prophesy that your suckers been broken Stand up Tilt the vessel smash the jaws Glory to God glory to God God raise up some holy young people that go to these So concrete there's no such thing as Christian punk But what they call that God raise up an army young people that march in there with love It just stand there silently in those comforts in those conscious Just stand there quietly and look at him and say in Jesus name. I bring this down and tilt those vessels Do it in love but tilt those vessels not a holy anger come against sin to the church of Jesus Christ Pastor advance list you I've been called to tilt the vessels and shatter the jars Anybody know who Moab is now But Jeremiah said those who know his name those who live around it Glory to God God's putting some fight in his people a holy anger against sin and I'll tell you that that's balanced with a holy ghost love a Holy ghost love it's not human anger Like Bob said it's human anger. You just beat people to the ground But men who walk holy and clean and pure before the Lord to have a holy boldness You stand before the Lord with me stand before the Lord hallelujah You feel something rising up in your heart You think it's a little bit of this the zeal of God Not zeal for God, but the zeal of God you want that What do you think this conference is about that God would cleanse us and purify us and then instill in us the zeal of a holy God Why is he making why is he trying to purify our vessels? So that we can come against these who've been sitting there untouched for years Why is it that you can go into your bookstores now and you'll find prophets and watchmen now warning Huh? Because the tilters have arrived Moab's coming down Tobias gonna be kicked out out.
