“DO YOU HAVE IT, STANDARD?” Genesis 39:7; And it came to pass after these things, that his master’s wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me. *We live in a time where one of the greatest tools given to us by the Lord Jesus Christ evades the church. It’s a quality that keeps our spiritual and natural enemies at bay. John 1:5; And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. Genesis 39:8; But he refused, and said unto his master’s wife, Behold, my master wotteth not what is with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand; v9; There is none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God? *It’s the quality of the knowledge that you have received, that manifest itself being. Leviticus 10:10; And that ye may put difference between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean. *Quality of being that is in our own power to obtain. Matthew 7:14; Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. 2 Thessalonians 2:7; For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. “DO YOU HAVE IT, STANDARD?” Genesis 50:19; And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for am I in the place of God? *Standard in the Lord takes on visibility. Philippians 4:4; Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. v5; Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. Genesis 50:20; But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive. *A standard has to be exercised. Hebrews 5:14; But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. “DO YOU HAVE IT, STANDARD?” Galatians 4:12; Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as ye are: ye have not injured me at all. *Having a standard will keep flesh from you. Standard will keep you in the limits. 2 Corinthians 10:3; For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh. “DO YOU HAVE IT, STANDARD?” Isaiah 59:19; So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him. *Having a standard determine how the Lord stands with you. 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. “DO YOU HAVE IT, STANDARD?” Acts 19:15; And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? “DO YOU HAVE IT, STANDARD?”Teaching!

“CHURCH, IS THERE ANY TIME ANYMORE FOR THE LORD?” We live in a time of life where the Church the building block of Christ, is being consumed by the worldliness of the flesh. A soldier spends most of his time in what he was enlisted for, not in civilian pursuits. 2 Timothy 2:4; No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. *I speak as one who has first hand knowledge. As an apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ I’ve witness it even in the ministry that was placed in my hand by the Lord. A people spending more time with their person than with the Lord. Jeremiah 7:23-24; v24; But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward. v28; But thou shalt say unto them, This is a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the Lord their God, nor receiveth correction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.  *These are they whom have not taken time to be free. Galatians 5:13; For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. “CHURCH, IS THERE ANY TIME ANYMORE FOR THE LORD!” 2 Kings 5:15; And he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came, and stood before him: and he said, Behold, now I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel: now therefore, I pray thee, take a blessing of thy servant. v16; But he said, As the Lord liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And he urged him to take it; but he refused. *Time spent with the Lord in a sense, is not just measured in hours, minutes and seconds. But instead walking in him. John 21:18; Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest not. v19; This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me. Proverbs 3:5; Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. “CHURCH, IS THERE ANY TIME ANYMORE FOR THE LORD?” 2 Kings 5:20 But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, Behold, my master hath spared Naaman this Syrian, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought: but, as the Lord liveth, I will run after him, and take somewhat of him. v21; So Gehazi followed after Naaman. And when Naaman saw him running after him, he lighted down from the chariot to meet him, and said, Is all well? v22; And he said, All is well. *When you have time for the Lord, you have to learn the difference between alloweth and made time. Alloweth; Galatians 5:7; Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth. Made time; Philippians 3:12; Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. 2 Kings 5:23; And Naaman said, Be content, take two talents. And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and laid them upon two of his servants; and they bare them before him. *When there exist only alloweth time means iniquity is still at hand. 2 Timothy 3:4; Traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God. 2 Thessalonians 2:7; For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. “CHURCH, IS THERE ANY TIME ANYMORE FOR THE LORD?” 2 Kings 5:25; But he went in, and stood before his master. And Elisha said unto him, Whence comest thou, Gehazi? And he said, Thy servant went no whither. v26; And he said unto him, Went not mine heart with thee, when the man turned again from his chariot to meet thee? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and oliveyards, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and maidservants? *Alloweth time only in the Lord will make your balance false. Proverbs 20:23; Divers weights are an abomination unto the Lord; and a false balance is not good. *Your alloweth time will never measure up to having time for the Lord. It’s actually set temporal time. John 1:38; Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou? v39; He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour. *Because not enough time, the being shown be temporal. 2 Corinthians 4:18; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal. “CHURCH, IS THERE ANY TIME ANYMORE FOR THE LORD?” Matthew 26:40; And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour? *Time for the Lord, that made time walking in the being. Romans 13:11-14; v11; And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. v14; But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof. “CHURCH, IS THERE ANY TIME ANYMORE FOR THE LORD?” Teaching!
