Temptation

We are having revival services at Pikes Crossroads PH Church with Evangelist Brian Rogers.

Theme for our revival services is "A New Beginning of Obedience to the Lord".

Here are my notes from his sermon for October 13, 2008 service.

Preaching text is from:
Luke 4:4-11
(4)And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.
(5)And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
(6)And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.
(7)If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.
(8)And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
(9)And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence:
(10)For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee:
(11)And in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.

Points:
1. The anointing that you expect is the anointing that will increase and flow in your life.
- We have to be obedient to the Holy Spirit.
- Partial obedience is still disobedience.
- Jesus Christ is the anointed one.

2. The anointed power of God can conquer any obstacle that arises in your life.

- Isaiah 10:27
(27) And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.

3. You always posses something in your life God wants to anoint.
- What is God anointing in my/your life?

4. The anointing will bring forth Divine revelation.
- He will put you in the place you need to be.
