25-1212A_THE STATURE OF A PERFECT MAN PT-28 (MASTER'S LIFE IN YOU)

2Pe 1:1  Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: 

2Pe 1:2  Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 

2Pe 1:3  According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 

2Pe 1:4  Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 

2Pe 1:5  And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; 

2Pe 1:6  And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; 

2Pe 1:7  And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. 

2Pe 1:8  For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

2Pe 1:9  But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. 

2Pe 1:10  Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: 

Psa 16:7  I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons. 

Psa 16:8  I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. 

*GOD MANAGES A WAY TO GET MAN IN THE PRESENCE, THEN THEY MAKE THEIR DECISION.

  70    God manages a way to get man in the Presence, then they make their decision. Some of them run from Him; some run to Him. If they're predestinated to Life, they believe It; they hang onto It. If they're not, they try to get away and say, "There's nothing to It." See? And that's the guy that's lost. The guy that confesses his sin, shall have pardon. If you hide your sin, you'll not prosper. No.

*…HOLY SPIRIT, THAT WAS ON OUR LORD JESUS, COMING RIGHT DOWN ENERGIZING THE VINE. AND BRINGING FORTH THE VERY SAME THING ON THE BRANCHES… 

GOD.KEEPS.HIS.WORD.2_  PHOENIX.AZ  THURSDAY_  57-0307

  E-78    Now, friends, if you go from this place tonight, without Christ in your heart, as the Word of the Gospel being planted, and the Holy Spirit coming right down, and bringing that Word to life, and proving it by the Bible, not anything outside the Bible, not a fantastic. A real Bible, Holy Spirit, that was on our Lord Jesus, coming right down energizing the vine. and bringing forth the very same thing on the branches, that He did when He was here on earth, to fulfill the Word, "I'll be with you to the end of the world." Then He stands on it.

Now, at the judgment day--at the judgment day, don't point your finger to me, for I'm free. Hear it? I'm free. Don't point your finger to God. He sent His Word and confirmed It. He's absolutely free. What about it now? If I'd have been a church member forty years, and the Holy Spirit was telling me that I was not a real borned again saint of God, I'd make my way to this altar, right now.....

*SET THE LORD BEFORE OUR FACE SO WE'LL BE CONSCIOUS OF HIS PRESENCE... PUT HIM FIRST, BEFORE YOU.

 IN.HIS.PRESENCE_  JEFF.IN  V-11 N-4  SUNDAY_  62-0909E

  72    Psalms 16:8, David said, "I have set the Lord before me." That's a good thing to do. Psalms 16:8, "I've set the Lord before me." So he could not be confused about it. He wanted to be conscious of His Presence, so David said, "I have set the Lord always before my face. Now I, David, have set the Lord before my face, always to be conscious--conscious of God's Presence." Wouldn't that be a good lesson for all of us tonight? Set the Lord before our face so we'll be conscious of His Presence. Put Him first. Why? Put Him first, before you. Why? Then you won't sin when you are realizing that constantly you're in the Presence of God. When you realize God's around, you watch what you say.

*WHEN DAVID PUT GOD BEFORE HIM, AND WAS CONSCIOUS THAT CONSTANTLY HE WAS IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD... "SEEK YE FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD."

IN.HIS.PRESENCE_  JEFF.IN  V-11 N-4  SUNDAY_  62-0909E

  74    After David did this, he said, "My heart shall rejoice." I wish you'd read it, Psalms 16. "My heart will rejoice, and my flesh shall rest in hope." Why? My heart shall rejoice because I've got God before me all the time. "And my flesh shall rest in hope; if I die, I'll be raised up again. For He'll not suffer His Holy One to see corruption, neither will He leave His soul in hell." See? When David put God before him, and was conscious that constantly he was in the Presence of God... "Seek ye first the Kingdom of God."
