"description":"\"The children will possess what the parents fought for in the Christian life,\" assures Denny Kenaston. A disciplined and abundant Christian life is something very much worth fighting for for God's glory and the for the sake of the children. Have we stopped fighting for more land?",
"description":"Part 2 of the visionary aspect of childraising stresses how essential having a vision is, for without a vision, the people perish. 'A vision is a mental image imprinted upon the heart by the Spirit of God.' Kenaston shows God's purpose to train up many generation families to win a lost and dying world, showing several examples from the Bible. If God did it for them, He can do it for you!",
"description":"The book of numbers gets its name because twice in the book the children of Israel were numbered. Once in the beginning of the wandering of the children of Israel in the wilderness and once before they came into the Promised Land. Less people came out of the wilderness then came into it. Of the various tribes there were chief men, and Moses and Aaron took these men. They were chiefs because they were expressed by their names. Elezer means my God is a rock, v6 at peace with God, a diviner, v8 a gift of God, v9 my God is father, my God has heard, v10 my God is a rewarder, v12 brother of help, v13 event of God, v14 God addeth, etc.. these names were of the chiefs or leaders of the various tribes. Then all the tribes are numbered, all twelve tribes. They would see the cloud and would be reminded of the centrality of the people, how important that a nation is to have God as its centrality. When people lose this centrality then that nation is in decline. America was founded on God and the founding fathers were bringing a recognition of the need of God. In God we trust is even on the coins for America, which has become somewhat of a hypocrisy.",
"description":"In numbers there is a pattern of chronic complaining. In asmuich as God is in control of the circumstances of our live but if we complain against the circumstances then we are actually complaining against God Himself. All things work together to the good of those who are called by God and according to His purposes. We are to be thankful in all circumstances. So if I start to murmur and complain then I am murming and complaining against the Lord. God continually forgives his people because He is loving and is longsuffering. God\u2019s patience and longsuffering are shown through Gods dealings with the nation of Israel. God is about to wipe out Israel and start a new nation, but because of Moses pleadings He didn\u2019t do it. God is immutable which means that he does not change. Behold I am the Lord God that changeth not. This planet is in rebellion to God but God wants to bless this planet and bring it back into harmony with Him. Through those life\u2019s that God touches He wants through us to touch others life\u2019s. Then God shows us His will and purpose so that we can share in His heart for the lost.",
"description":"The people spoke against God and Moses and complained of why they got took out of Egypt. There are people who are chronically complaining and there are people that are chronically complaining. But Gods will is for us to be thankful in all things. Manna was angels food \u201che fed them with angels food\u201d it is a great provision of the Lord. And God in judgment because of their complaining send fiery serpents to kill the people. There was a confession and repentance of the sin by the people. Moses pray for us and ask God to help us was the plea of the people. God told Moses to get a serpent and put it on the brass pole. So that if anyone looked to the snake on the pole and they would be healed and not die. And it\u2019s the same with the gospel that if people just look upon the cross of Christ believing then they would be saved. The brass is always a symbol of judgment and the serpent was always a symbol of sin. People afterwards took the brass serpent and began to worship it instead of the living God. People seek after idols that remind people of Gods presence that indicates that we have lost His actual presence. So this speaks of spiritual degradation. Hezekiah broke it to pieces and said it was a piece of brass. It is sad when people start to worship a church instead of the living God the church represents.",
"description":"The once and for all sacrifice for sins is Jesus Christ once in for all for mankind. All the sacrifices in these books show forth of the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ. It is better not to vow at all then to break it, God is not requiring anyone to make a vow. A vow is done on our part towards God and He will honor it if its done right. If you make a vow unto the Lord it is very important to keep it. We have in the Old Testament that were unfortunate and were bad vows. A married women that makes a vow the husband can disallow the vow, if not it because a binding vow. In the 30th chapter of numbers it\u2019s the laws of vows.",
"description":"Much can be said about this. Look at God\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s care. God gave a cloud for shade. At night there was a fire to warm them. God was there to help them. In Ps 37:23 we read that the steps of a man are established by God when God delights in his way. You go where God goes and when he stands you stand. No matter whether in bright sunlight or at night, keep your eyes fixed on God. Pierre, may your family know that you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t do anything unless God tells you to. This will turn your life into heaven or it will turn your life into hell if you don't do it. Nobody is too old or too young. We don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t have a cloud or a fire that leads us anymore. We don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t have the glory that they saw but we have something better, and that is the glory and beauty of the Lord Jesus. May He always be before your eyes. May your eyes be fixed on Jesus alone. If He is in you, the glory of that fire will be in you. God covered them and kept them and lead them. Can you think of anything better? God covers you. You\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve got Jesus to cover you and His fire is there for everyone to see.",
"description":"March 16, 2008 - The whole moral law calls us to be separate from the thinking of the world. If you settle in a certain comfort zone and begin to focus on self, to the exclusion of those who haven't come into your inheritance, this is the sin that WILL find you out. We can be sure that there will be a great personal cost to those who pursue self interest while there are others who still don't know the Lord. We are not called to live for ourselves. We are called to follow our Savior.",

"description":"When Amalek fought Israel, God promised to have war with the generations of Amalek forever. This represented the forces of the devil against the purposes of God. The devil doesn't want you to enter into the rest of God. When you listen to the lies of the enemy and let him cause your faith to waver, you will remain in the wilderness, just as Israel did.",
"description":"Carter Conlon delivers a very powerful message on the great need for personal revival in these last days. We need to realize our great need to confess our sinfulness and the need for the righteousness of Christ. We can only be agents of revival and be filled with Christ when we fully surrender to God.",
"description":"MAN'S RUIN AND GOD'S REMEDY. DELIVERED ON SABBATH MORNING, NOVEMBER 20TH, 1859, BY THE REV. C. H. SPURGEON, AT THE MUSIC HALL, ROYAL SURREY GARDENS. \u201cAnd the Lord said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.\u201d \u2014 Numbers 21:8. I DO not propose this morning to explain again the mystery of the brazen serpent. As many of you well remember, not long ago I preached upon that subject, and endeavored to expound it in all its lengths and breadths. I have a somewhat similar object at the present time, the details may indeed be different, but after all the moral will be the same. Man has very many wants, and he should be grateful whenever the least of them is supplied. But he has one want which overtops every other: it is the want of bread. Give him raiment, house him well, decorate and adorn him, yet if you give him not bread, his body faints, he dies of hunger. Hence it is that while the earth when it is tilled is made to bring forth many things that minister unto the comfort and luxury of men, yet man is wise enough to understand that since bread is his chief want, he must be most careful concerning corn. He therefore sows broad acres with it, and he cultivates more of this, which is the grandest necessary, than he doth of anything else in his husbandry. I feel that this is the only excuse I can offer you for coming back again constantly...",
"description":"The many details in the book of Numbers draws our attention to the discipline and orderliness of God. God takes interest in every single detail and is interested in each individual, not just whole groups. Zac draws many wonderful truths from various sections, covering such practical areas as criticizing others, rebellion against authority, true and false spirituality, and many others.",
"description":"The decline of obedience to the moral laws of God in society and in the church will ultimately bring upon themselves the redemptive judgments of God.

"description":"\"This is something I long to be,\" says Alan Martin, \"filled with the Spirit, led by the Spirit, dwelling in the Spirit, so that my wife, my children, my friends and all who know me see the incredible power of God in display daily.\" Are we receiving this abundant provision of grace? Are we just tasting of Christ or feast, just visiting or living in Him?",
"description":"This sermon explores the danger of irreverence towards God in our associations and in ministry. There will always be people among us who desire to go back to \"Egypt.\" To them it is the land flowing with milk and honey. We must avoid their irreverant and profane words. We must avoid them and their influence. That is, we must \"purge ourselves of these\" in order to be pure and useful to God. In fact, Paul references the rebellion of Korah in 2 Timothy 2:19ff. as an example of God's estimate of this type of sin and rebellion.",
"description":"May 1,2005 - The whole foundation of why Jesus came is about love. It is the kind of love that reaches out beyond our own struggles and cares for the needs of the poor. When the new life of Christ comes into us there is an evident outward working of righteousness. Its not about how high profile we are, rather its about a simple life of a person that has the life of Christ exude from.",
"description":"God was taking Israel through the wilderness and preparing them to enter the promised land. But they did not like what God was feeding them, and complained wanting flesh. God wanted to feed them what would make them strong, and they wanted what would make them fat and slow. A great contrast between today's church seeking the flesh more than Spirit.",

"description":"October 23, 2005 - Aaron was grafted into the body to supply a lack. The failure to acknowledge Aaron was a failure to bend the knee and acknowledge God. The inability to acknowledge ministry leaders in the place where God has placed them in the body is rebellion against God. Many times we form in our mind a perceived deficiency toward that person based on our own opinion. How can we say Jesus is Lord and not acknowledge His authority.",

"description":"Be ready to write down the many other scriptures Pastor Conlon goes through in this message about what it really means to be part of the Body of Christ, and follow the example of Christ, denying ourselves and taking up our cross. The heart of Christ is to minister to and serve others, and he wants us to share his heart. The devil is trying to destroy the Body, going after the weak and the young. We are to watch for our brothers and sisters, and if we see them in a battle, we must be willing to fight for them. To go into the secret closet and war against this thing on their behalf, to love not just in word, but in deed. Selfishness has disastrous consequences. Take heed.",
