Matthew 8:10; When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. v13; And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour. I put you in remembrance of David at Ziklag, when he called for the ephod and he enquired at the Lord, and recovered all, 1 Samuel 30:1-8. "In Authority, Under Authority!" Ephesians 3:20; Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us. "In Authority, Under Authority!" 2 Kings 2: 11-14, Romans 13:14, read it! "In Authority, Under Authority!" I'm seeing, I pray you are too! Overseer/Apostle

"DEVOUT", it's unethical some would say. Genesis 5:24; And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him. Hebrews 11:5; By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. (Examples of the above.) "DEVOUT"; Philippians 1:21; For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. "DEVOUT", 2 Corinthians 4:7; But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. v8; We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; v9; Persecuted, but not forsaken, cast down, but not destroyed; v10; Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.

"I've Got To Keep What I Got!" Mark 8:36; For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? v37; Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

Paul said; Philippians 4:11; Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. "I've Got To Keep What I Got!" Luke 10:40; But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me. Mark 4:18; And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word, v19; And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

"I've Got To Keep What I Got!" v42; But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. Paul said this about him; 1 Corinthians 9:27; But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. "I've Got To Keep What I Got!" Galatians 3:3; Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh? v4; Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain. Romans 13:14; But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof. "I've Got To Keep What I Got!" Teaching! Overseer/Apostle

2 Chronicles 7:14; If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; (LORD IS IT MY TURN?), then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. 2 Kings 20:1; In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death.

"Can You Serve?" First you have to make it clear that you are not going to serve two masters; Matthew 6:24; No man 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. (Give Notice!); Elisha; 1 Kings 19:19; And Elijah passed by him, and cast his mantle upon him. v20; And he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said, Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow thee. 2 Corinthians 6:17; Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. "Can You Serve?" Romans 12:1; I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

"Sanctification Don't Wear Well, With All Church Folk. You Can Tell Where A lot Of Them Go!" Saul came up under the subjection of people, cause he didn't wear himself, where he was suppose to be. He used the excuse, I forced myself; 1 Samuel 13:11-14. He would have never went that way, if he had set apart Christ as Lord in his heart; 1 Peter 3:15. "Sanctification Don't Wear Well, With All Church Folk. You Can Tell Where A lot Of Them Go!" David showed how to wear sanctification, and it showed him where to go. At Ziklag, when the Amalekites burned it with fire. And took the women. Even when the people spake of stoning him; 1 Samuel 30:6. His wear set him apart; 2 Corinthians 6:17. And it took him where he was supposed to be. David enquired at the Lord; 1 Samuel 30:8. And he recovered all. "Sanctification Don't Wear Well, With All Church Folk!" Acts 5:1-10; then but a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession. Sanctification didn't wear well because of attempting to serve two masters, Matthew 6:24. They kept back part, instead of being apart; 2 Corinthians 7:1; cleanse ourselves. It caused them their lives, that's where it took them; James 1:15; bringeth forth death. "Sanctification Don't Wear Well, With All Church Folk!" 1 Thessalonians 4:4; That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour. v7; For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness. "Sanctification Don't Wear Well, With All Church Folk!" Overseer/Apostle

"Keeping Hagar in the house with Sarah!" Galatians 4:22; For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman. v23; But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise. "Keeping Hagar in the house with Sarah!" Jesus give an excellent example with the rich young ruler; Luke 18:22; Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me. v23; And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich. Apostle Paul stated it this way; Galatians 4:9; But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage? "Keeping Hagar in the house with Sarah!" Romans 8:5; For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. 2 Samuel 6:8; And David was displeased, because the Lord had made a breach upon Uzzah. v10; So David would not remove the ark of the Lord unto him into the city of David: but David carried it aside into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.

"Keeping Hagar in the house with Sarah!" Mark 3:25; And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand. v27; No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house.

Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman. "Keeping Hagar in the house with Sarah!" Teaching! Overseer/Apostle

Titus 1:4; To Titus; v5; For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting. "You Are Still Set In A Place Cause, The Lord Say, There Is Something I Want, From You!" Jacob was set in a place cause, The Lord wanted him alone. Genesis 32:22; And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two womenservants, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford Jabbok. v24; And Jacob was left alone. 2 Corinthians 6:17; Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. When the Lord received what he wanted, he changed his name; Genesis 32:28. "You Are Still Set In A Place Cause, The Lord Say, There Is Something I Want, From You!" Jacob is one of many examples, of you been set in a place, cause the Lord is wanting. Meaning you are lacking in a certain required or necessary quality. The rich young man, the Lord wanted sacrifice, Mark 10:21, Romans 12:1. The impotent man set in a way thirty-eight years powerless, the Lord wanted a coming up in his stand, John 5:6-8, Philippians 3:14. Paul knew what the Lord expectations were of him. And the Lord was not wanting. He lived a full proof life, Galatians 2:20. He was not set in a place, but lived in a prepared place. Jeremiah 29:11; For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Now the question looms to the people of God.

(What he was saying to him; Matthew 19:21; If thou wilt be perfect.) "But Don't Know The Word"; 1 John 2:15; Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. "Know The Church" but when it get to sacrifice, you stop, because you say that's to much; Mark 10:22; And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions. "But Don't Know The Word"; Genesis 29:20; And Jacob served seven years for Rachel; and they seemed unto him but a few days, for the love he had to her. 2 Corinthians 4:17; For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.

ALIGN; the proper positioning or state of adjustment. Romans 9:6; Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect.
