Pastor Buddy Wimberly "Beware" Proverbs 27:6, Mark 14:43-46 

Proverbs 27:6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.

Mark 14:43-46
43  And immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.
44  And he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he; take him, and lead him away safely.
45  And as soon as he was come, he goeth straightway to him, and saith, Master, master; and kissed him.
46  And they laid their hands on him, and took him.

Pastor Buddy Wimberly "To Miss Hell" Luke 16:19-31


19  There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
20  And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,
21  And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.
22  And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
23  And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
24  And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
25  But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
26  And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.
27  Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:
28  For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
29  Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
30  And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
31  And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

Pastor Buddy Wimberly "I Know My Redeemer Lives" Job 19:23-27 

23 Oh that my words were now written! oh that they were printed in a book! 24 That they were graven with an iron pen and lead in the rock for ever! 25 For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: 26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God: 27 Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.

Bro Charles Bennett "All Or Nothing" Luke 16:13

Luke 16:13 KJV No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

1 Corinthians 10:31-33 KJV Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. [32] Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God: [33] Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.

Pastor Buddy Wimberly "Renew Your Covenant" Hebrews 8:1-12

1  Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;
2  A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.
3  For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer.
4  For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:
5  Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.
6  But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
7  For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
8  For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:
9  Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.
10  For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
11  And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.
12  For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
13  In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.

There are many occasions in our lives when we may, for very good reason renew our covenant with God.
Times of Trouble:
Recovery from sickness or disease (God has added years to your life) Hezekiah
Deliverance from trouble (self-inflicted or not) Lot
Repentance after Christ-dishonoring sin (look ahead not behind) David
Times of Prosperity:
Special Blessings received (Grace) Paul
Special Displays of Mercy (Kindness shown) Mary Magdalene
Divine Fellowship (God is closer to you than the air you breathe) John Revelator

Since we need the fulfillment of new promises from God, let us offer renewed prayers so that our old vows will not be dishonored. Let us make with Him a new and sure covenant today because of the pains that Jesus endured yesterday in our behalf.

Pastor Buddy Wimberly “Highly Exalted” Psalm 22:6-17

6  But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
7  All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,
8  He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
9  But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts.
10  I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly.
11  Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.
12  Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.
13  They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.
14  I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
15  My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.
16  For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.
17  I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.

Revelation 15:1-4
1  And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.
2  And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.
3  And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.
4  Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.

Philippians 2:9-11
9  Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10  That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11  And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Pastor Buddy Wimberly “My Sins Are Gone, Gone, Gone!” Leviticus 16:21-31

21  And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness: 
22  And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a land not inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness. 
23  And Aaron shall come into the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall put off the linen garments, which he put on when he went into the holy place, and shall leave them there: 
24  And he shall wash his flesh with water in the holy place, and put on his garments, and come forth, and offer his burnt offering, and the burnt offering of the people, and make an atonement for himself, and for the people. 
25  And the fat of the sin offering shall he burn upon the altar. 
26  And he that let go the goat for the scapegoat shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward come into the camp. 
27  And the bullock for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the holy place, shall one carry forth without the camp; and they shall burn in the fire their skins, and their flesh, and their dung. 
28  And he that burneth them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp. 
29  And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger that sojourneth among you: 
30  For on that day shall the priest make an atonement for you, to cleanse you, that ye may be clean from all your sins before the LORD. 
31  It shall be a sabbath of rest unto you, and ye shall afflict your souls, by a statute for ever.

Pastor Buddy Wimberly “Now” I John 3:1-10

1  Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
2  Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
3  And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
4  Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
5  And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.
6  Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
7  Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8  He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9  Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
10  In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.

Luke 9:23-26 
23 And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?
26 For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.

Pastor Buddy Wimberly "Letting Go Of What Already Belongs To God"

Exo 7:14  And the LORD said unto Moses, Pharaoh's heart is hardened, he refuseth to let the people go. 

Throughout Exodus you will find wording concerning Pharaoh�s heart. (text, 7:22, 8:15, 8:19. 8:32, 9:7, 9:12, 9:34, 10:1, 10:20, 10:27, 11:10, 14:4)hardened

God was trying to pry away the tight grip of Pharaoh off of the children of Israel. 430 years God�s people had been held tight in captivity. Now God was trying to rightly get what belonged to Him. Pharaoh would not let go.  God sent ten plagues to try to loosen Pharaoh�s grip- ten- interesting ten fingers- (water-frogs-lice-flies-murrain-boils-hail-locusts-darkness-death) HARDENED HIS HEART- 

I Think so many times God�s people follow the same pattern- we will not surrender and let go- we hang on only to find more difficulty- we hang on only to find more grief and heartache- we hang on to and find ourselves aggravated and frustrated the more that we become in entangled in bitterness- refuse to bow their knee and give in- feel like we�ve got to prove something- stubbornness and pride takes control until it finally leads us to being overwhelmed in distress!

Some things just automatically belong to God- He works in our life to loosen our grip-give Him what already belongs to Him- will not make us be tenderhearted- will not make us be willing- will not make us to sensitive to His desires-


Our Life- Romans 12:1-2 : Mark 8:35 �For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel�s the same shall save it.� : I Corinthians 6:19-20 �What? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God�s.�  
 
My body, my life! 

 He is no fool who gives up what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose!


Our Losses- Job chapter 1- possessions- materialistic- real loss- family- lost our priorities today- love people and use things- now we love things and use people- Job has had to have a funeral for his whole family- terrible tragedy- while just the day before- having a rejoicing reunion- now death has darkened the door step of his life- what did He do- how did he handle such a loss- chapter 1:20-22 and in chapter 2:8 sat down in the ashes- 


Our Load- Matthew 11:28-30  �Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.� 
  
Fear and worry is often the reasoning behind holding on so tight even when we know that we should just give it to God.

Matthew 6- admonishment against fear and worry. �Take no thought��

Bro Wade Cox "A Good Soldier" 2 Timothy 2:1-4I. Stay Focused
2 Timothy 2:1-4 KJVS
1. Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 

Ephesians 2:8-9 KJVS
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Colossians 2:6 KJVS
As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:


II. Strength In Numbers
[2] And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. Church brothers-evangelism-discipleship

Proverbs 27:17 KJVS
Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.

III. Know Pain Know Gain.
[3] Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. Count It All Joy 

James 1:2-4 KJVS
My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;
a putting to proof (by experiment [of good] experience [of evil] solicitation discipline or provocation); by implication adversity: - temptation X try.
 [3] Knowing this , that the trying of your faith worketh patience. [4] But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

IV. Avoid Mission Creep
[4] No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. 

Colossians 3:1-3 KJVS
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. [2] Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. [3] For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

Matthew 6:21 KJVS
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.


V. Double Check Your Equipment! 
Ephesians 6:10-16 KJVS
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 
[11] Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. [12] For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places . 
[13] Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 
[14] Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 
15] And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; [16] Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

Pastor Buddy Wimberly "Know That You Know" I Thessalonians 3:1-5

 I Thessalonians 3:1-5 1 Wherefore when we could no longer forbear, we thought it good to be left at Athens alone; 

 2 And sent Timotheus, our brother, and minister of God, and our fellowlabourer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your faith: 

 3 That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for yourselves know that we are appointed thereunto. 

 4 For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know. 

 5 For this cause, when I could no longer forbear, I sent to know your faith, lest by some means the tempter have tempted you and our labour be in vain.
