To Infinity and Beyond l Student Pastor Zach Hammond

thank you come on and clap your hands just a little bit louder if the Lord's done anything for you Lord is great and greatly to be praised amen you know it's amazing to me to watch how people respond to God and worship God how they respond to his presence respond to his goodness I I've I've heard it said before and I've often repeated it because I think it's uh it's true and this is a big if statement but if God had a weakness I know that's a big if obviously we know he don't but if God had a weakness it would be worship you turn the pages of scripture and people that ought not be in his presence get into his presence just by worshiping they break laws they do things that are that that he calls an Abomination but brother Tyler they just come in and begin to worship and all of a sudden his presence comes down and it's as if God has this weakness that no matter who it is if you just start worshiping that no matter what you've done if you just start worshiping and no matter what you're going through if you just start worshiping it's pretty amazing to see what God does through worship but I've also learned my kids as they get older when they know you have a weakness they'll use it against you if somebody knows you're hungry they'll say how about I do this if you'll do this I'll give you some food huh if you'll do this I'll give you some money if you'll do this if somebody knows your weakness you've witnessed it they'll use it to manipulate you to get you to do something that maybe you wouldn't do because they know you want this oh I'm dying of thirst you can get them to do a lot of things for a glass of water because they'll use your weakness against you you see it throughout scripture as well people are like they come and worship God but then it's like they've got this question behind them that if I worship you could I sit on the right hand and the left hand of you in heaven if I worship you I would would you do this for me God and so we come before it and many times I know I'm guilty of it I set here tonight as I played it through my mind that if I wasn't careful I wasn't lifting up hands because of who he is I was lifting up hands so I could get something from him I was lifting up hands to see if I could get what I wanted tonight from him and out of him and if we're not careful we'll come in for the right reason because we're in the house but we'll be high highly motivated with the wrong motives highly motivated to be in the right thing but doing it in real in reality you can't manipulate God we can't force God to do something even though he'll respond to worship I want to worship him for the right reason so I feel so led to begin this this sermon tonight that every single person in this place if you would lift your hands and you would lift your voice with no strings attached and just begin to open open up your mouth and glorify God God I'm here just simply to tell you I love you God I'm simply here to just tell you how much you mean to me God I'm here to just adore you God because you brought me out of nothing oh God God I'm here because God you deserve it God I don't God but you deserve the worship you're the King of Kings and the Lord of lords God I'll worship you tonight if you never do anything else for me God I'll worship you tonight Lord just for who you are come on if you're thankful for who he is could you just clap your hands one more time to him we're here to Worship You Lord Lord we want to bless your name we want to bless your name Jesus name I feel the presence of the Lord in this place tonight Genesis chapter 2 and verse number two and on the seventh day God ended his work which he hath made and he rested it on the seventh day from all of his work which he had made and God blessed the seventh day somebody say he blessed it bless he blessed the seventh day he didn't just bless it the Bible says he Sanctified it because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made you don't have to turn there you can read it on the screen I know it'd be fun to find but Psalms chapter 118 I'll read this very quick quickly and allow you to be seated verse number 24 this is the day which the Lord hath made we will rejoice and be glad in it can we say that together one more time this is the day that the Lord hath made we will rejoice and be glad in it save now I beseech thee Oh Lord oh Lord I beseech thee send now Prosperity somebody say amen amen send now Prosperity B Blessed Be he that cometh in the name of the Lord faith in the name of Jesus Amen we have blessed you out of the house of the Lord God is the Lord which has showed us light bind the sacrifice with cords even unto the horns of the Altar and thou art my God and I will praise thee Thou Art my God and I will exalt thee oh give thanks unto the Lord for he is good for for his mercy endureth forever somebody say forever forever I want to preach to you for just a few moments tonight on this subject this is our title to infinity and beyond to infinity and beyond look at your neighbor tell them say to infinity and beyond and you can be seated tonight as you study scripture and as you make your way through the Bible as many of you I know are are very uh studious of the word of God and know a majority of it a lot of times we get up here and you hear the same stories or you read things that you've been reading throughout the year or the week and in the Bible you can see a lot of things that are signified through numbers to accomplish and explain many things types and shadows significance and all the different things that we see and we try to practice from Old Testament to New Testament we understand that that everybody you you can read all kind of different Scholars and Jewish this this and and and the Hebrew of this and the Greek of that and you can get into all kind of fun things and many people would say five is the number of Grace and sixth is the number of man and you can see all these different significant things some people don't like numbers I've been to church growth things where they're like we're not all into numbers and I'm like well what are we you know numbers are people don't don't be scared of it it's reality you know people don't like averages but we create them right you can't help but just acknowledge the fact that numbers are numbers it's real and so we we look at these things and and and and numbers in the Bible tells us a lot of things in fact there's a whole book called numbers and God would paint a powerful picture in just the few uh few first few verses of his creation he creates a space in the first three days and the the second three days he fills that space so whatever he created in day one he then chose in day four to create he created a space in day one and then he creates this kind of poetic form of of scripture here where he would take what he created in day four and put it in day one and what he created in day five and put it in day two and what he created in day six and he would put it in day three and it's this process of already allowing us to know if we really look in the depths of the scripture that whatever he creates he feels amen and we know as Pentecostals that he's already letting us know in the very very early stages of scripture that we know that we are vessels ready to be filled amen and so he's letting us know right off the bat that he doesn't create anything that he doesn't feel but the Bible says in our opening text that on the seventh day he rested the number seven is of great significance in the Bible God uses it time after time to represent completion seven fast seven churches Seven Feast seven churches seven horns seven eyes Seven Seals seven candlesticks seven stars seven this seven that seven seems to be the number if you're at church camp and you're going to pick a number between one and 10 right you're going to pick seven that's God's number you hear people talk about it all the time seven seems to be that number of completion you know if you want to be the wise guy you're going to choose maybe six you know because you know the other person is a Christian and they're going to pick seven that's God's number you know it's uh it's something to do with the number seven and we see that even within our work week with even within our world that it's seven when you talk about something you say do at 24 because we work within that if you're going to there's even religions that have been started uh you've got seven day Adventist you've got people that argue over what is the seventh day and what is the Sabbath day and is it Saturday or is it Sunday is it this day is it that day seven seems to be a significant thing it marks our calendar it's the way we've arranged things but there seems to be something that all of a sudden pops up as you continue to turn the pages in Genesis chapter 17 that begins to puzzle uh the whole the whole concept of numbers and in Genesis 17 there seems to be all of a sudden a significance with the Eighth Day Genesis 17 and verse number 12 says and he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you every child in your generation he that is born in the house or is bought with money of a stranger which is not of thy seed and he says on the eighth day I want you to circumcise the child and you would think all the things leading up to this point you would have said this is a covenant moment it should be on the seventh day but he says no I want you to do it on the eighth day which begins to now become significant which is a step past completion A step above and beyond what we've maybe what we' we've seen as this is the mark and this is where we are to start back over at day one we've worked oursel to day seven and now it's Monday or for those of you that would argue it's Sunday whichever way you want to look at it we don't work in the eighth day we don't this is the first time we've really seen this in the Bible and it it all of a sudden it's it's telling us there's a new beginning there's a new covenant and it's something that's beyond completion Colossians 2:11 says for us in whom also you were circumcised with the circumcision made without hands and the the putting off of the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ buried with him in baptism wherein also you are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God who has raised him from the dead and you being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh hath he quickened together with him having forgiven you all trespasses blotting out you know it the handwriting of the ordinance of that which against us which was contrary to us and took it out of the way nailing it to his cross it's amazing here to see this Covenant and the significance of how it all works we see that that within our our our human thinking within mankind it seems to be Seven Days Seven Days Seven Days Seven day but when God wants to begin a covenant he said I want you to do that on the eighth day because a covenant with God is always going to be outside of what man calls complete I I want you to begin to see the process here you begin to live a life as a new creature in Christ Jesus on the eighth day you say but yeah there's no such thing it's beyond you and I it's not within time it's not within my might or my power it's a new thing it's a new creature when God wants to do a new thing you're going to notice in scripture when God wants to do something outside of man's control he begins to kind of slip in this number eight for some reason outside of man's time when God wants to start it all over 1 Peter 3 and2 says which sometimes were disobedient when Once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah while the ark Was preparing wherein few that is eight somebody say eight eight Souls were saved by water and you're thinking what in the world did I come to Sunday night service for to be in some kind of math class who gives a rip about the number eight the like figure where unto even doth baptism also now save us not the putting away of the filth of the flesh but the answer of a good conscience toward God by the resurrection of Jesus Christ when they got out of the Ark he said I'll make with you an Everlasting Covenant it's beyond completion it's beyond what we understand it's beyond what you're going to comprehend when you start talking to somebody who's out in the world it's a and you start telling them you've got an Everlasting Covenant with a God who created all the universe who created the world who formed you they're not going to be really going to be hard for you to Fathom within your human mind what God wants to do in your life it's the struggle it's the thing that we go back and forth on it's the thing that we really struggle with it was preached about this morning it's called faith that oh we we just we just go through and I pray that by Friday that me and my family and everybody can just make it through the week and we didn't lose a job and nobody got sick and nobody got hurt and this didn't happen and we didn't have a car accident we just made it back to the house of God peace and and and sound and and if if that's that's the success of the week and we never get outside of that we clock in and clock out proverbially into everything that we're supposed to do we make sure the kids are all right the kids make sure that they're you know they're fitting in and they're influenc and doing this and we get caught up in the Mond cycle of the calendar but I'm here to tell you tonight of a covenant that God said I want to do it outside of what any man can understand it's going to be something beyond the number seven of completion it's going to be Limitless it's going to be an Everlasting Covenant it's going to be when you thought God was done and you thought God had done everything he's going to do with you in your life I'm telling you that there's going to be an eighth day and for some of you it's going to be this evening God uses this to show us something Time and Time and Time Again outside of mankind let me keep showing you here because I can tell some of you are not quite convinced John 20 and verse number 25 the other disciples therefore said unto him we have seen the Lord but he said unto them except I shall see his hands the print of the nails and put my finger into the print of the nails and thrust my hand into his side I will not believe Faith he said I'm not going to believe it until I see it we've got it here and we we be this becomes his name and throughout all the scripture and all the story times and this becomes doubting Thomas but verse number 26 he's he's he's he's now going to show up and after eight days again his disciples were within and Thomas with them then came Jesus to the doors being shut and stood in the midst and said Peace be unto you then saith he to Thomas re hither thy finger and behold my thy hands and reach hither thy hand and thrust it into my side and be not faithless not believing and Thomas answered and said unto him my Lord and my God why do we need to know that he waited eight days to come back for a faithless individual I'll tell you why we need to know because he is going to slide this number eight in anytime he wants to build the faith of scripture he wants to uplift the individual who's got some doubt in their mind and say this is outside of what you can comprehend it's outside of what the world is going to think is okay it's going to be Supernatural it's going to be exceedingly it's going to be abundantly it's going to be beyond what you think should be taking place I believe God is going to work a miracle in this place tonight see I understand I knew coming in tonight that I was walking in and we're all human and we're all sitting here and we've been been sitting on our 7-Day calendar for quite some time we've been sitting in our 7-Day flesh for quite some time oh I remember growing up I remember uh sitting back in the brush Harbor days I've got some faithful saints of God I remember seeing Miracles but I haven't seen one in a while I know it's hard to convince you I know it's hard to get your faith to a place that God would move into a an eight day type of moment that it's it's so hard that you you don't want to really trust to step out into that I don't really want to trust I'll just let it let it work out in time maybe it'll be better next week and you just find yourself in the cycle of the seven days so interesting to me that time and time and time again I'm going to use scripture to try to help you tonight the Lord 1 Samuel 16 verse number one look at this story and the Lord said unto Samuel how long wil thou mourn for Saul seeing that I have rejected him from reigning over Israel fill the Horn of oil and I will go and send thee to Jesse of the bethleem might and I have provided for me king among his sons and Samuel says how can I go and he's he goes through this whole process and you know the story he shows up at Jesse's house and Jesse he he brings in his sons he calls them to sacrifice and verse number six says and it came to pass and they were come and he looked upon elab said surely elab is the one that the Lord wants to anoint surely he's the one he he he looks the pardon and he he he's he's got it all together here he says Jesse said this is his sons I I want you to check out elab here and Samuel this is that all all famous scripture here that people use as a as a copout for Holiness standards but he says look not on his countenance don't look at his height don't look at his stature because I have refused him for the Lord seeth not as the man seeth for the man lookth on the outward appearance but the Lord lookth on the heart always know where scriptures at when people start quoting it when you you tell people that I dress a certain way and do certain things because I believe I honor God with it and it's a sacrifice don't let them go pull a scripture out of the Old Testament that they're talking about choosing a king Jesse said oh well if it's not eliab it's got to be abinadab got to be him he looks the part passed before Samuel neither had the Lord chose him and Jesse said surely shama to pass by and neither hath the Lord chosen him and guess Jesse he made made Seven of his sons pass by and the oil wouldn't pour in the room but not just I want you to really see this in the room present looked the part but the oil wouldn't pour God said no that's not him and wouldn't you know Samuel says in verse 11 are these all your children and he said there remaineth yet a youngest and behold he keeps the sheep and Samuel said unto Jesse you better send him we're not even going to sit down till he gets here I don't know how far he is but we're going to stand here and he went and brought him in he was Ruddy with all of a beautiful countenance and goodly to look to and the Lord said arise and anoint him for this is he Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his Brethren and the spirit of the Lord Came Upon David from that day forward so Samuel rose up and went to ra and but the spirit of the Lord departed from Saul and the evil spirit from the Lord troubled him I want you to see this tonight he had seven boys in the room but when God wants to do something Supernatural when God wants to do something outside of what man was looking at and said this would be suitable they looked the part they they they they've got the right stature it looks like what we expect right it's within our seven-day Minds it's within our humanistic thinking he said no bring me the Ruddy one out of the field and I'm going to take the eighth son and I'm going to do something that's beyond anything scripture has ever seen I'm going to take him and the oil of the almighty God is going to begin to pour on him and while the oil was pouring on a man a young man here the the anointing was lifted thing off another man somewhere else I want you to see what happens he brings in the eighth son of whom you and I I don't have time to get all into it tonight but of whom you and I are Of The Bloodline if you've been baptized into the eth day Covenant so you're not just in an eighth day Covenant you become an eighth son see that with me tonight I want to encourage your faith with a little bit of Revelation that you are that e son you are a chosen generation you are a royal priesthood you've been called out of into the room that you didn't deserve to be in and the oil begin to pour and the spirit of God rested upon you and all of a sudden you have a supernatural Spirit within you you begin to speak in an unknown tongue and you turn the page and all of a sudden David starts killing lions and bears he pulls the uh he pulls a lamb out of the mouth of the lion he shows up Pastor talked about it this morning on the battlefield and his brother says what are you doing here while we're we're out here fighting the battle that's a very powerful point in scripture they weren't fighting just because you looked the part don't be deceived thinking you're fighting a fight of Faith hiding behind a rock because it's going to take an anointing it's going to take an eighth Sun mindset to walk up and kill a giant it's going to take somebody that's got some Faith to start yielding a stone and it's going to take somebody that's got a mindset says I believe God can do something beyond anything he's ever done I believe God can do something in this room tonight that would shake this County it would shake this oh I know I know it's going to take some pushing I know it's going to take some shaking of your mind but you got to increase your faith or you're just going to keep going through the same old 7-Day cycle some of you been living God sent me tonight as a messenger simply just a messenger this has nothing to do with whether I preach it you preach it Pastor preaches it the bottom line is God wants to do something greater than you've ever seen but you've got to get out of your measly mind your flesh and let God work in a greater way somebody say a greater way a greater way every person in here God wants to do something greater every person in here God's not just got a covenant for you he wants you to be an eighth son an eighth daughter this man after God's Own Heart Jesse couldn't take credit for it when God wants to do something great nobody's going to get credit for it but him he begins to go through this process of the anointing and it's so interesting to me that in the original text that the word the word eight is shim and I don't know if I'm pronouncing that right not that it necessarily matters but shim s h m i n i means eight but the word Shimon take the ey off means oil if you can take the and you can add the eye there can be an anointing but youve got to get outside of your human thinking I can't stress that to you that's what God has put on my heart to put on somebody tonight you've got to get out of the mundane you've got to get out of the cycle of what you do every week you've got to pray a little bit more on a day just because you pray 10 minutes there's some days that God wants it to be an eighth day and it might be a Tuesday it might be a Wednesday it might be a Friday but God wants to work a Miracle through you it might be a financial Miracle but you just went through the mundane and you missed it it might be a spiritual Miracle it might be you laying hands on somebody in the sick recovering and God wants to use you to do something Supernatural but you can't get out of the natural to experience the exceedingly abundantly greatness of God faith it's beyond what we can fathom it's beyond what we can comprehend I want you to see this with me tonight and he he he shows us this and I have no clue how in scripture this happens or how in in it really even in the way that that numbers were written and things were formed but when you take this number eight and you turn it sideways you now have the sign for infinity because once you get in Covenant with God God once you are baptized as a new creature and become that son and daughter of Christ all of a sudden you have access to a god of infinite of Beyond and it's so powerful here because then he starts you he says I'm not just going to make with you an Everlasting Covenant he said I I'm going to allow now allow you to have access to something that's Without Limits we live in a land of laws not just the laws of you shouldn't speed and you shouldn't do this you shouldn't do that let's just think about it in creation the laws of gravity we all are experiencing it right now thank God somebody said but there is although most of us will never experience it there is a line you have to take a bunch of test and you probably have to go through a process but you could get on a spaceship and you could go up and you go through what the what what NASA declares is Max Q which is the process of where everything wrong with with the Space Center and the process of navigating the outer space anything that's going to go wrong happens most of the time at Max q and that's where you cross over into where there's no gravity everything it seems that God created that the law created that our land has there's always a line you don't cross but when you get into an Everlasting Covenant With God all of a sudden he start talking about things like Mercy he starts saying things like as far as the East is from the West that it doesn't matter what you've done that when I knock down a number eight that it just becomes infinite that when a child of God gets knocked over he's going to come right back up because why the mercies of God are new every single morning there's somebody that needs to hear tonight you feel like you've gone too far but if you're in Covenant with God you just need to get back up you feel like that you've made too many mistakes and you you've become this person and this is just who I'm no no no no no no no if you are an eth and you get knocked down it just validates who he is every time you fall every time you fail that's why he's God that's why he died is to pick pick you back up so don't be discouraged don't stay down get back up into your posture but when you fall down and when you mess up and when things don't go right and you're going through a trial and you're going through a tribulation just know that as that Eighth Day Covenant as that eighth son or daughter that when you fall down you then become the glory of who he is all of a sudden you you you you have access to this Mercy this greatness this goodness we see it over and over and over when the enemy comes against you it's a setup I don't have time to go through all this I have way too much notes but we'll see it over and over you can study it if you find something send it to me I think it's interesting when King Nebuchadnezzar said you're going to Bow you're going to Bow I'm going to throw you in the furnace not going to Bow they stood standing it's the Sunday School Story he said well if you're not going B I'm going throw you in the furnace he gets him up to the furnace and God wants to do a God thing so what's he do Pop Quiz what's he do how how many times hotter seven times hotter it's a setup he says any time I'm going to do a great thing I'm going to do it seemingly on the eighth day and you'll see that he does this and he does that and he said we we don't work in man's way we're going to walk around in this fire we're not even going to smell like smoke great is the Lord who's most wor worthy to be praised his greatness no one can fathom over and over and over again people like David would write in Psalms who had accessed the greatness of God who had seen the wonders of God and he says I I know that I can't fathom him but I'm going to continually seek him to see if I can find something greater today than I saw last time I want to see something greater on a Sunday night in July than I've ever seen in all of my life I'm here to work outside of my own might or my own power our own thinking I'm here to see what God wants to do he says that Christ May dwell in your hearts by faith that you being rooted and grounded in love may be able to comprehend with All Saints what is the breadth and the length and the depth and the height and to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge said cuz when you get in Covenant there's going to be some things like his love that you don't understand that you might be filled with the fullness of God now to him that is able to do what exceedingly abundantly above all that we can ask or think according to the power that worketh in us the only way you do that is unto him be the glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages the World Without End Amen he's an exceeding type of God but he is is is he that type of God for you is how long's it been since God blew your mind how long's it been since you prayed a prayer that was kind of scary how long has it been since you you felt like you were asking and petitioning God for something that you I just don't know how this is going to happen the the doctors report says there's no way the banker says there's no way the the averages says there's no way the statistics are against you but you're willing to step out in faith and say I believe God can still do it yes I believe not only that he can but I believe that he will and I'm calling on a church tonight I'm calling on a father and a mother a young person tonight to get beyond what you can physically fathom get beyond what you can understand because Psalms 118 Begins the way it ended in our opening text oh give thanks unto the Lord for he is good because his mercy endureth forever we are living in a time where convenience is seemingly a requirement however it's everything we're dealing with in our world is fighting against Faith it's fighting against Faith no nobody wants anything to last forever regardless of what the car salesman told told you they didn't build it to last forever why would they the industry would go under it's supposed to start messing up about 120,000 miles right some of you are a living walking breathing Miracle of the goodness of God that your car has got x amount of thousands of dollar you know miles it's just is what it is right but they don't build it to run forever why they want the industry to keep going they don't make your phone and about the time you get the new one another one comes out right now today they say we have more disposable items than we ever have some people and don't raise your hands you haven't pulled the the actual plates or the bowls out of your cabinets in quite times you just use disposable plates why convenience I don't want to wash the dishes I just use the Solo Cup and toss it it's disposable it's a disposable World they wanted you to use disposable water bottles they want you use disposable this it's not made to last if we're not careful we begin to get in this cycle that that that we can't comprehend forever we can't comprehend anything that would last we can't comprehend a God that's here tomorrow like he was yesterday we can't comprehend the fact that God would do something that's beyond what he did a few years you know we just can't comprehend forever we can't comprehend mercy and ultimately that's why we all struggle with forgiveness a lot of us are bitter tonight not because God's not able but we don't under we don't understand his Everlasting Mercy it's the things that are beyond what we can fathom within our 7-Day thinking that keeps us from what God has for us a calling a purpose a healing a miracle it's those things that hold us back more and more and more of this world seems to to to just just live for the moment but I'm here tonight to remind you that of a God that lasts forever in a seven-day world it's the theme of Psalm 118 in the beginning he says his Mercy endures forever many many believe that David wrote the Psalms but he was an eighth son and he would have understood this e day Covenant this infinite God but let let me let me read this to you verse number two says let Israel now say that his mercy endureth forever somebody said let Israel now say but then he said let the house of Aaron now say that his mercy endureth forever then verse four says now let him that fearth the Lord say that his mercy endureth forever in other words there's a process that he wants you to understand that you serve an infinite God you serve a god that is Great and Mighty and Powerful able to do exceedingly and abundantly and don't you dare think that you're too far from God don't you dare think that God's done with you don't you dare think that you've reached a moment if you're breathing God wants to do miraculous things through you if you're I I I wish there was somebody that would stand to your feet tonight and just receive the fact that God's not done with me God wants to do more more through me God wants to do more through me oh I believe it in faith tonight somebody's going to catch the vision Hallelujah somebody's going to catch the word of God Jesus name Jesus name you may be seated I know a lot of you stood up thinking I was done I'm sorry gotcha look at this look at what he does I just want to show you a couple more things in scripture he says let let Israel now say let the house of Aaron and let them now that fear the lord so we have a public praise for an everlasting we have a Priestly praise for an everlasting mercy and then we have a personal praise for an everlasting Mercy it should happen in all three we should have a group and a body of people like a church that comes together in one mind and one Accord and says we are going to see God do the miraculous today but it takes more than just the congregation we're going to get to the priest of our home and it's going to take every father standing up and saying hey hey mama hey kids today God's going to do something great in our life you know how many times I tell my son Hampton even though he's out cold right now when we walk in the house of God I tell him you're going to get the Holy Ghost tonight buddy why because as a priest of my home I believe God's going to do something greater than he did the last time I was here I come in with expectation believing that he's not just it's it's not just a public it's not just a Priestly but then it becomes personal it's not up to Daddy it's not up to Mama it's to anybody that fears the Lord I'm going to praise him because his Mercy endures forever he's been too good to me not to worship he's been too good to me not to lift my faith and believe that he's going to do something Mighty he's going to do something Supernatural not all sad to say not all will own him as Savior well one day everyone will know him as Sovereign one day every knee will bow every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord It's Seven Feast it's seven churches it's seven trumpets it's seven horns it's seven eyes it's this it's that you say Well when is he coming back I don't know but it sure will be an eighth day for the church it'll be an everlasting holy holy holy is the Lord God Almighty the whole earth is full of his glory you say how long are we going to do that forever it's going to be an everlasting praise for an Everlasting Covenant for an everlasting God I'm thankful that I'm able to serve a God I'm trying to get you tonight to get beyond what this Earth and what this world is trying to get you just to be SW slow slowly swayed to sleep but just thinking this is enough this is no no no this is not enough if we're going to have Revival if we're going to see a harvest of souls God's going to have to do some he's going to have to be able to work through a vessel that's not about me and my and I I got to cut away the flesh I got to get in an e day Covenant I got to get I'm here to tell somebody tonight there's an eighth day in your future I've come with a word from the Lord to let somebody know God is going to do something Beyond you're not going to be able to get get the credit the the the banker not going to be able to get the credit your family's not going to be able to get the credit the preacher not going to be able to get the credit there's going to be an eighth day in your future I don't know maybe some of you don't want God to work in your life maybe some of you don't want a miracle maybe you don't want God to heal your family maybe you you're just okay with living with that disease or maybe you're okay with living with that pain maybe you're just the salvation of your kids don't mean enough for you to worship him it's a personal faith faith will cause you to do things that you've never done before in order to experience things you've never seen before Psalms 1118 ends this way this is the day that the Lord has made what's that mean I will rejoice and be glad in it I cannot help but think that the Cadence of the beginning and the middle leading all the way up to verse number 24 tells us of an everlasting an everlasting an everlasting God praise him because his mercy endureth forever praise him because he's it's over and over again we want the house of Aaron to do it we want the house we we want you to do it as as this and that we want to give praise because he's a good where all of these things are happen he says this is the day well what what day when we come to church we quote that when we start church services but I I'm here to tell you tonight you can quote that on any day if you wanted to be an eighth day you have the power to declare what David declared this is the day I would venture to say that David didn't go out intending to kill Goliath he just said this is the day the Lord has made David didn't expect to come in front of a lion or bear he just said this is the day that the Lord you say I don't I don't know how some people do it if you just declare when you get up in the morning that it's going to be an eighth day you would be surprised how many times you run into a God moment at work how many times you experience the goodness of God and you weren't expecting it but God Gave You victory over something that you've been fighting God allowed you to be the one that he would use when everybody else seemed to be the qualified ones or you thought that faith faith God wants to do an eighth day type of work I don't have I don't here I'll I'll just get here let's just go Passover to Pentecost was 50 days it was the entire it was in Exodus 32 it was in Acts chapter 2 he was in the grave three days showed himself alive for 40 which means they would would have found themselves in the waiting room for the birth of the church seven days that's as good as I got it don't get any better than that and suddenly there came a sound from Heaven as of a rushing Mighty Wind it filled all the house where they were sitting clothing tongues like as a fire we don't know nothing about no clothing tongues like as a fire as a seventh day person they're standing on the outside looking in saying these folks are drunk it don't look like anything that happens within the this this is this isn't a calendar this is just another feast day this is something we can't explain why because it was an eighth day God continually shows himself powerful Mighty exceedingly abundantly over and over and over again he's simply come tonight just to ask you to step past the seventh day Step Beyond the ordinary and watch God do something extraordinary in your life Step Beyond what you've been doing and just up the consecration just a little bit just just take there suddenly came a sound from Heaven as of a rushing Mighty Wind want you to stand to your feet I'm serious this time Beckham can you bring me that when we begin to talk about the greatness of God and him doing exceedingly and abundantly it's hard to comprehend I get it it's the Battle of Faith it's the Battle of every believer it's the Battle of every individual no matter what age you were when you filled with the Holy Ghost were baptized you had these Supernatural moments it's easy to find yourself in the cycle it's easy to find yourself in the mundane it's easy to start thinking you're in it but you're not of it you're you're in the seventh days but you're not of the seventh days you can make any day an eighth day you can have you can have a miracle on a Monday you can have things that happen but I I want to I I just want to maybe use this to demonstrate to you you know no matter what part of your brain and if you're you're male female right brain left brain and we all 90% of us learn visually I'm pretty sure you already drank out of this brother Carpenter but hopefully seal was broke this disposable right I have a question for you in closing tonight and I think this is the struggle of mankind and that is can something little how the devil gets gets us to view ourselves I'm just another person in the world can something small do something big let's put it in spiritual terms can something small contain something that's big that becomes the question of Faith Can a great God do great things through a small little old me I'm just another person on the map I'm just another person in the family chur tree I keep eating like I'm eating I'm gone in a few years anyways you know just another person down the line you're telling me that God of all creation wants to do a miracle through me wants to use me to speak life into a dry Barren situation how can an infinite God work through such a finite something that's so finite contain that which is infinite in other words let me ask you this and I'll ask for crowd participation in closing could this small bottle of water that some mom created because they hated seeing the half ones laying around the house of the actual size water bottles the small water bottle could it hold the Pacific Ocean no no way right there's no way we don't even know the vastest many would say that the vastest of the ocean is we're yet to acknowledge or really understand as much of it beneath the level of sea as it is in the sky it's it's a massive body of water how could this little bottle contain an ocean can this little bottle hold something something that's so great I'd like to change your mindset tonight and I hope that I could maybe help you to not forget the word of God tonight and I would tell you yes it can as long as it's open but the minute I put a cap on it I only get what my capacity can hold but the minute I remove my 7day thinking and I lay it aside all of a sudden I could take and pour the Tennessee River through this bottle and all of a sudden the scripture begins to make sense exceedingly abundantly overflowing like a river and it funnels through this thing and I'm getting a little wet why because everybody around you when you start living in the eighth day begins to acknowledge that there's something different about you you just don't do things like everybody else does you just don't answer the same way everybody what what are you doing praying right what are you do why do you go to church two or three times why do you do this why do you do that because I'm an eighth day individual I believe God will do what his word actually says I believe God will manifest himself and you say all I'm asking you is just simply it's is a kid's Quest sermon tonight you hear me all I'm asking you is just to take your mind and take the cap off stop coming in and expecting God to be the same old God no he's a God who wants to do miracles signs and wonder he wants you to lay hands on the sick and he wants you to do something that I if you want to receive the word of the Lord I wish you'd step out of your seat I wish you'd throw your hands up and I wish you'd receive what God has for you Hallelujah come on
