These messages are exceedingly difficulty to provide brief summations, given their meaty nature. The primary focus of today is on the faith from God. Using 1 Corinthians 2 and Mark 11, Pastor Ray makes the point that simply being in the presence of Jesus must be the all-consuming goal of the Elijah company but none of us can make it to God on our own. Flesh only produces flesh. You can't pump up faith like a football. Mark 11:22 says And Jesus having answered says to them, "You must have faith from God." (Malcolm L. Lavender, Lavender's New Testament, A Literal Translation of the Robinson-Pierpont Majority Text(1995)).
As a reminder, here are the marks of the Elijah company:
An absolute refusal to compromise with Ba'al or Baal, believed to be the god of prosperity or the god of fire;
A willingness to pray for judgment unto repentance;
A willingness to be hidden away, so there must not be a desire for recognition, simply willing to be a servant of Jesus;
An agreement that the company will only receive from the hand of God, however God chooses;
A prayerful heart that seeks the Mt. Carmel experience;
A single-mindedness of seeking Jesus with all of our hearts (i.e., no hidden agendas);
A full recognition that God's work is too big for us but we are willing to invest all of our energy in going after Jesus (God's work always requires God's power);
An ongoing and increasingly critical need of a fresh revelation of the glory of Jesus, simply to be in His presence not to use Him for what we can get out of Him.
The Midnight Cry (2008) Listen to Pastor Ray go through in grea... Listen to Pastor Ray go through in great detail the parable of the ten virgins (from Matthew Chapter 25). Are you one of the ten virgins and if so do you have oil in your lamp? Listen as Pastor Ray explain what faith working by love means. Find out how to purchase faith, as you listen along... Pastor Ray gives some concrete examples of how this works. It's not complex but it's not an intellectual process. (NOTE: This message was preached during the severe financial crisis we had in 2008. The national debt was just over ten trillion dollars and that has now more than tripled to thirty three trillion dollars (i.e. $33,000,000,000,000+) so the day of reckoning is upon us.) https://www.nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=43320&feed_id=3233
Much More Amazing Grace! https://youtu.be/xWbV-P06ZUk This ... https://youtu.be/xWbV-P06ZUk This is a continuation of a prior broadcast from October on the life of John Newton, author of Amazing Grace. Pastor Ray details this brother's struggle and subsequent victory over being half-converted. He initially was transformed to some degree but was unwilling to surrender everything to Jesus. During the time of half-conversion, Newton's depravity is described in excruciating detail. Listen to the story how this dear brother finally laid everything down in full surrender to Jesus Christ. Praise God for this wonderful testimony of this dear brother who was fully converted and totally transformed! https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=3773&feed_id=4206
