The Silver Trumpets – 10 The Lord said to Moses: 2 “Make two trumpets of hammered silver, and use them for calling the community together and for having the camps set out. 3 When both are sounded, the whole community is to assemble before you at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 4 If only one is sounded, the leaders—the heads of the clans of Israel—are to assemble before you. 5 When a trumpet blast is sounded, the tribes camping on the east are to set out.6 At the sounding of a second blast, the camps on the south are to set out. The blast will be the signal for setting out. 7 To gather the assembly, blow the trumpets,but not with the signal for setting out.
Tribute from Dr. Jamal to his mom: “I would like express my gratitude for my mother: ” Dr. Cecelia Williams-Bryant” that is watching with us today by way of streaming faith internet.”
Sermon notes:
After today, things will never be the same.. Early childhood development administers an elementary exercise test to see if they can identify different objects… To gauge their maturity, is to see if they can identify the difference.. Many of us have not grown to realize what is different… At this juncture of spiritual growth, you she be able to notice and recognize what is not biblical and what is out of order… You cognition is off… You should be able to exact what is different..
Whenever God is about to do something significant or remarkable he always use something different.. .He only uses polar —- to distinguish the difference… If everyone is the same, that is not a healthy church… There should be something in the sanctuary you cannot identify with… God always does the incredible and does not do the things that are the same…
God always does stuff incredible… God restored a man sight by using spit and mud to restore the mans eyes.. Why did God use mud and dirt that has nothing in common… He uses to polar opposites to restore sight.. .He used the dust of the ground because we were made from the dust of the ground… So he goes back and scoop up dust so the man can see so he could go back to his original intent…
God is getting ready to see you operate and function in the optimum position God has you in … Marvin Sapp sang a song “He saw the best in me”
Spit had dismal —-…. God used his own resource….. Can I tell you that you are not going to be healed from outside sources.. You are gong to be healed from the resources of God… Whatever comes out of my mouth will come from him… Those that are believing God by faith…. I believe that everything God has spoken about me is going to come to pass….
Whenever God does something significant he does not use two of the same substances… The God that we tell Gideon… We tell them to give them a torch and a trumpet… In order to have victory over the enemy, you need sound and light…
The truth is light…. The church is in a place where we have a lot of sound, but not a lot of revelation… Woe unto the church that has a lot of sound but it’s not producing any evidence of your light… When we come into a place of light.. Whenever I make a sound of light God gives me a further dream and vision…. The reason I’m crying out is because I need light to happen…
He uses a torch for light and a trumpet for sound…
Jesus was crucified int he middle… On the left side he has thief and on the right he has a robber… A thief comes in and steal when you are not looking… A robber will rob you right in your place… A thief will wait until you are not home… The enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy…. Sometimes the enemy take stuff when you are not looking and other steal right in your face…
In spite of what was taken from me, I still have my joy…. I’m still standing… He won’t be able to take my peace, or my joy because God has put an hedge of protection around me..
He sent the disciples ahead, and he said when you come to that place, you will find a goat and an ass…. God was testing them to see if they would leave the ass alone… God wanted to see if the would bring them the colt… Some of you guys need to leave some stuff alone…
Make sure you choose somebody that is built for you and can handle your ways…. Whenever I am getting ready to do something different…. I bring two different things..
The greatest accomplishment is bringing a child into the world… It’s not what you drive…. Your greatest legacy will be what did you do with your children? Whenever God is getting ready to do something significant…. When he brings birthing… He does not bring a male and male together…. He does not bring a female and female together…
I don’t care if the President the Mayor is endorsing… I serve God and I don’t’ care… .We are not to be intimidated by sale out pastors, bloggers…. We are not of the world….. You want to know why they are jealous? God selected you to be different… I’m different from the people in my family… I’m different than who I use to be… I’m different and the devil don’t like it!!!!
many times the churches are guilty of not practicing what we preach… We have blood on are hands…. We have gay people in the choir on the dance ministry…… That does not mean we are to support them.. .We don’t have a support group for fornicators…. We are suppose to make sinners feel uncomfortable in their sins..
Homosexuality is a sin… I wish there was a church not filled with cowards… I don’t care if it’s Michael Dyson… If God be for me, who can be against me… A coward is someone who don’t speak what they believe…
When you have courage, you may loose some friends… If I perish, let me perish… I’m going to see the King… Things will never be the same since our President did what he did… It’s not always ethically correct… . When Nathan confronted the King, they did not want to kick it with him… The president is black and out of order!!!
Where is the prophetic voice that speaks truth to power… Woe unto us… We live in a time where black preachers are so impressed to being seeing… Prophets will change the city.. You have to be ready to change the environment you are in….
Less I go out on a political tangent… Let me tell the one’s that have ears to hear: Things will never be the same… Those of you that have been in rut and stuck… Those that have been faithful over a few things, he is getting ready to make you ruler of many… Things are about to change.. Hallelujabh…. Be seated please!!!
If God be God… if things are going to be change, he cannot connect you to things that are like you… He have to connect you to somethihng oppostit… Let the wheat seperates…. If you are poor, God is going to make you rich….. God is going to give you the impossible..
In Numbers Chapter 10 – He tell Moses to make two trumpets and make them out of the same material… It is a substance that will not be effected by the weather.. It will be able to hold up in inclement conditions… I need you to blow the trumpet twice… When you blow the trumpet once… You are blowing it to call the people back to order… The 2nd time you blow it to send the people back to Holiness… .Blow the trumpet until America get back on its knees Blow the trumpet until the White House is back in order…. When you hear my shout this time, you will understand that the people who are called by my name would humble themselves…
Lift up your voice…. Lift up your voice for our children to stop dyeing from HIV and aids… Shout for our President to come back to God….. I need you to lift up your voice… God is getting ready to save this nation… I need you to lift up your voice like God is getting ready to change nations… Lift up your voice, lift up your hands and cry out for this nation…
I need you to lift up your hands right where you are…. I understand that some of you may be upset, aggravated and unnerved… My job as a Prophet is not to be your friend… It’s to be a friend of God… You have been called to be different.. You are not to fit in… You being a outcast is a call to your confirmation… You are different… You have a lot of people in your space that are associates, but you cannot call them friends…
How you got to God in the first place… God called you to be different… This sermon is different, but you have come to a different kind of church… I wish I could have given you the Ruth and Naomi sermon on today…. There ought to be a different signal that comes from you … Different than anybody else… I pray God gives you a new job…. It’s time for you to do something different… I pray that God gives a new level of creativity…. When it comes to pass, you will say that this is absolutely nothing but God….
I want you to stand to your feet…. God brought you to a different kind of church.. He knew you would need a different kind of message… You know God has pulled you from a different kind of circle and circumstance… God brought you to a place that you can see you own uniqueness…. Every-time they put you in the box, you break out of the box and come out as a new creature…
There is something different about you…. You are a self starter… You can break out on your own…. Give God some Praise!!! On this mother’s day… Give God some praise for this young man…
Some people are not prepared for something different….. Give them something different just one time…. Some of us have not been to church in years, but you know that God has something different on my life… Turn to you neighbor right where you are that look a little different, or unknown to you…. Ask them: “Are they saved?”‘ No better time than now..
You are in the right place at the right time, serving the right God… I know that’s right…
Empowerment Temple give God some Glory…..
Celebrate our God… How many of us believe that things will never be the same…
What I want you to do different on today… I want you to tithe…. Get your seed in your hand!!
Those on line, I know you have saved Gas money… Give your seed on line…. Give an odd offering.. God is going to do something odd in this season… Give a child next to you an odd off erring… $3.00 – God is getting ready to take a special needs child and do something extraordinary with them.. He is going to take the spirit of rebellion off of them…
I pray that you plant a seed into this house…
“Lord thank you for what you did yesterday, what you did last month, what you did last year… The seed that is in my hand is a gift of my mother that birthed me….” Dr. Jamal Bryant…
