THINGS TO COME (Part 2)

by Pastor Kevin Badgley


            Hebrews 11:6 says, “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”

 Do you believe that you are called of God?  Has God told you something definite, and you know what you need to do, and that you will be doing it in the future, but along the way something came along and hindered?  We are coming to the last few moments before a one world government, but also a one world religion.  Our time is so short. 

God said that anything is possible to those who believe Him!  Any one of the true body of Christ can be a participant and turn this world upside down for Jesus Christ.  God has delivered to us a faith that is in Christ Jesus by the power of the Holy Ghost.  We have got to pray believing.  Why would a man try for something he doesn’t believe is possible?  Jesus tells you to do the impossible, and He has placed it in you to become the kind of person that you have never dreamed possible. 

            Luke 10:19 says, “Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.”  What did He mean?  It might kill you, but it’s not going to hurt you!  Matthew 10:28 says, “And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”  Do you understand? 

            When God sends a lot of people to us, I’m not going to complain.  If you’ve got an ox in the stall you are going to have to clean that thing!  If you didn’t have a calling, then you wouldn’t have to do anything, but we ARE called.

            Along with revival there is a lot to do, so be willing and obedient to God.  Colossians 3:23 says, “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;”  We should all want to heal the sick and raise the dead, and that is good if you will pay the price.  However, it might be a lot easier to just be a door man, to direct traffic, or to clean the toilet, because you are going to have to do that as unto the Lord also.  Obey God’s call on your life.

            God has designed His people to be able to walk in the Spirit at will, anytime, because Jesus did!  John 14:12 says, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.”  This kind of church is going to rapture.

            In Revelations 21:7 it says, “He that overcometh shall inherit all things. . . .”  He’s talking about blessing, anointing, the gifts of God, the moving of God’s Spirit, and the presence of the Lord.  He said that you will inherit all things if you will overcome.

Not just anybody is going to waltz in there and get it!  That keeps the jerks out from the anointing of God, because they would kill somebody with it.  That’s why you’ve got to be crucified, so that you won’t say anything.  It will be God talking right to you and through you.

            Listen to what God says in John 16:13.  “Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth. . . .”  I don’t care how old, feeble, ignorant, or whatever else you think that you are, God has put something in you if you are saved and filled with the Holy Ghost that can turn this world upside down.  If you’ve been a coward, or if you’ve been lazy, then change it.  Whatever you’ve done, get it under the blood of Jesus, and it will be gone. 

Let’s press in and quit believing Him just for little things.  Believe him for absolutely awesome things!

            You have to pray.  There is nothing that God can’t do through you.  This is something that you must believe, or you cannot have it.  The church that is doing something for God must hear from God, lock on to it, and then do it no matter what comes their way.  We have a tremendous calling, a potential, and a tremendous Spirit of our God in us to accomplish these things.   It’s not going to be like anything you’ve ever seen.  I’m commanded to believe for it, and I’m passing it on to you.  Let’s believe God together!
