Sermon Tone Analysis

INTRO: SURELY AS WE BREATHE IN THE AIR OF THIS PLACE TODAY WE CAN FIND FAULT IN THE VAULT OF OUR LIVES…THE ACCUSER WOULD TO REMIND THAT WHICH WE LEFT BEHIND OR EVEN STRUGGLE TO RELEASE FROM OUR LIVES IS STILL WITHIN MEMORIES REACH.

THE REPLAY BUTTON…COMPRESSED AT THE VERY SIGHT OF DETERMINATION OF THE PERSUADED TO RISE UP OUT OF THE STRUGGLE.

THE ACCUSER OF OUR SOULS NEVERS SPEAKS OUR MERCY BECAUSE MERCY IS BEYOND HE’S COMPREHENSION.

AND SO HERE ARE WE STRUGGLERS WHO STRIVE TO BURST PAST THE STRUGGLE.....HOW MANY SERVICES HAVE YOU STRUGGLED THROUGH WITH THE WEIGHT OF YOUR WRONG INSTEAD OF THE WEIGHT OF GLORY!

HOW MUCH EFFECTIVE PRAYER TIME THAT COULD HAVE BE SPENT IMPACTING THE WORLD YOU LIVE, TURN UPSIDE DOWN THE ADVERSARIES CAMP, SHAKE THE FOUNDATION OF YOUR ENEMIES GATES, BRING HEALING , BRING DELIVERANCE, BRING FREEDOM, BRING CLARITY, BRING TRIUMP, BRING NEWNESS BUT INSTEAD IT’S SPENT ASKING FOR FORGIVENESS AND WEEPING THROUGH THE PROCESS OF TRYING TO FEEL WORTHY ONCE AND AGAIN!!!

*I SUBMIT TO YOU TODAY THAT MUCH TIME IN PRAYER IS USED AS THERAPEUTIC COUNSELING SESSIONS TO SOOTHE THE CONDEMNED SOUL INSTEAD OF RED HOT INTERCESSION, SUPPLICATION AND FERVENT EFFECTIVENESS!!!!*

HOW MUCH TIME IS SPENT ENERGY EXHAUSTED MANAGING OUR STRUGGLE?

HOW OFTEN ARE WE JUST TRYING TO SURVIVE INSTEAD OF THRIVE?

HOW CONSTANT IS THE VOICE OF CONDEMNATION INSTEAD OF THE VOICE OF DIRECTION?

WHEN WE ARE LIVING IN THE CONSTANT LOOP OF FALLING…MAKING MISTAKES… WHEN WE

ARE LIVING IN PURPOSEFUL REBELLION TO GOD WE SENSITIZE OURSELVES TO THE ADVERSARIES VOICE AND NOT THE LORD!

The great lover of the Lord and psalmist even declared

MY SOUL....MY EMOTIONAL BEING, THE PART OF MY THAT IS APPETITE AND DESIRE IS CLEAVING TO THE PERISHING PORTION OF MY EXISTENCE AND NOT…NOT THE ETERNAL....

EVEN THE GREAT PSALMIST IN OPEN TRANSPARENCY DECLARES, “ THE DUST IS DOMINATING MY LIFE”..... I’M TRYING TO BE SPIRITUAL BUT IT’S PURSUING ME....I’M TRYING TO RISE ABOVE BUT MY FAULTS AND MY WEAKNESSES KEEP CATCHING ME....IT’S LIKE EVERYTHING THAT IS BAD FOR THE ETERNAL ME IS SO READILY AVAILABLE!

AND SO TODAY OUR MESSAGE IS A QUESTION THAT EACH MUST ANSWER FOR THEMSELVES....AND THAT IS THIS: IS VICTORY SOMETHING WE ARE WAITING TO RECEIVE OR SOMETHING WE ALREADY HAVE?

ARE WE WAITNG FOR THE LORD TO MOVE IN AND CONQUER OR GIANTS, SLAY OUR TORMENTORS, BURST OUR SHACKLES, DESTROY OUR PERSONAL PRISONS…IS VICTORY SOMETHING SOMETHING THAT SOMEDAY, SOMEWHERE, SOMETIME MAY BE OR IS VICTORY SOMETHING THAT IS ALREADY HERE?

Note: * Romans victory parade*

A Roman military triumphal procession was one of the grandest spectacles of ancient times.

It was granted to a conqueror only when certain conditions had been fully complied with.

Among these it was required that the victory be complete and decisive, that it should be over a foreign foe, that at least five thousand of the enemy should be slain in a single battle, that the conquest should extend the territory of the state, and that it put an end to the war.
