[0:00] Welcome. Thank you for listening to The Soulsome Word by David Entry. The word you catch will change your world. May your story change from this message.

[0:13] Be blessed. In the beginning was the word. The word was with God. And the word was with God.

[0:24] There was not anything made that was made without your word. By faith we understand that the wells were framed by the word of God. Lord, give us your word. Speak to us. Visit us.

[0:41] Go pass our minds into our spirits and deposit yourself in our spirits. As your word is taught, heal the sick. Deliver the captives. Convict the sin.

[0:57] Save the lost. And let a revival spark in the United Kingdom. We thank you. In Jesus name. Everyone who believes, shout a living amen.

[1:10] Shout a living amen. 1 Corinthians chapter 5, verse 6 and 8. Thank you Jesus.

[1:24] Hallelujah. 1 Corinthians chapter 5, verse 6. Verse 6. Your glory is not good. Know ye not that a little liven, liveneth the whole lamb.

[1:40] Living is yeast. So you put yeast in the bread, the lamb. And then it livens the whole thing. It rises and becomes a big bread.

[1:53] Verse 8. Let's read from verse 7. Purge out therefore the old liven, that you may be a new lamb, as ye are unleavened.

[2:06] For even Christ, our Passover, is sacrificed for us. Christ, our Passover. Therefore, let us keep the feast, not with old liven, neither with the liven of malice or wickedness, but with the livened bread of sincerity and truth.

[2:25] Verse 7. Purge out therefore the old liven, that you may be a new lamb, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ, our Passover, is sacrificed for us.

[2:36] Christ, our Passover. What is Passover? Because you have to understand what Passover is. It's significant to appreciate who Christ is to us.

[2:54] In Exodus chapter 12. We are going to read verse 1 to 3. And then verse 6 to 12.

[3:07] Exodus. Exodus is the second book of the Bible. Chapter 12, verse 1. Of Exodus. And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt.

[3:20] Where? In the land of Egypt. Where? In the land of Egypt. Do you know what Egypt signifies? Egypt signifies captivity. A place of bondage.

[3:31] A place of slavery. A place of restriction. A place where you are not free to be yourself. Alright. A place of satanic oppression.

[3:44] In Egypt. God spoke to Moses. And Aaron. Say Moses. Moses.

[3:54] Say Moses. Moses. Yeah. God wanted to tell the children of Israel something. But he spoke to Moses. He hasn't changed the way he works.

[4:09] Yeah. So there are things that God wants to release into your life today. That's why I'm standing here. Yeah. Amen. God will speak to me personally.

[4:21] Go wait. Praise God. So God spoke to Moses and Aaron.

[4:32] Aaron was the priest. Moses was the prophet. He was the deliverer. The type of Christ. God spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt.

[4:45] Saying. This is somebody's. Amen. Saying that this man. This man shall be unto you. The beginning. Abstract a gold mine.

[5:00] Abstract a gold mine for somebody. We abstract a gold mine for somebody. We abstract that. Somebody has received your word. And I'm telling you. There's somebody here. You can actually go home with your miracle.

[5:11] Because God has spoken. Has told you. This man. This man. This man shall be the beginning of mine for you. This man shall be the beginning of mine for you. This man shall be the beginning of mine for you.

[5:22] In the name of Jesus. 시간이. This man shall be unto you the beginning of months.

[5:36] He shall be the first month. Of the year. Yes. Of the year. to you. Forget about others.

[5:46] Forget about the other calendar. So long as you are concerned. The year is starting. I have a strong inclination and promptings and conviction in my spirit that actually, tomorrow Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, 21st, 2nd, 3rd, to Friday, many people here are going to be surprised with wonderful testimonies.

[6:20] Things are going to happen very fast for somebody. Things are going to begin to happen for you. I'm telling you, things are going to begin to happen for you right from tomorrow. It's being prepared today from Monday.

[6:35] You're receiving miracles in the name of Jesus. Yes. Strange, strange opportunities. Strange opportunities. Lifetime opportunities.

[6:49] Life-changing opportunities. It shall happen for you.

[7:01] In the mighty name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. Sit down, please. verse 3. Verse 3. Verse 3.

[7:12] Verse 3. Verse 3. Verse 3. Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, in the tenth day, the tenth day of this month, which is the beginning of months for you, they shall take to them every man a lamb.

[7:36] Every man a lamb. Take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their father. A lamb for a house.

[7:49] Oh, this is good. A lamb for a house. Everyone, take a lamb. That's what it said. Tell the children of Israel, the month, everything has changed from today.

[8:00] So everybody should get ready. But it can't happen if you don't have access to a lamb. Lamb for a house. Say, a lamb for a house.

[8:11] A lamb for a house. Verse 6. You shall keep it until, up until the fourteenth day of the month, of the same month. And, the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening.

[8:26] Kill what? Kill the lamb. Alright. I want you to take notice of a few things because of the nature of what I'm teaching. I may not have all the time, so I'm trying to see how best I can work this out.

[8:39] But for those of you who are writing notes, you can write some things down, things to do to the lamb. Number one, he said, take a lamb. And then number two, kill it on the fourteenth day.

[8:51] So kill it. Number one, do what? Take a lamb. Is that in your Bible? Yeah. Everyone should take a lamb, verse 3. Then number two, kill the lamb.

[9:01] What's supposed to happen to the lamb? Killed. Alright. So he said, kill the lamb. Right. Let's move on from there. Verse 7. And they shall take the blood and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door posts of the houses, wherein they shall eat it.

[9:25] So where is the eating happening? In the house. And what's supposed to happen to the house? Take the blood. So okay, number three, take, he said, number two, kill it.

[9:36] Number three, take the blood. Okay. Say, apply the blood. Apply the blood. Take the blood of the lamb. Apply it on the house.

[9:47] House posts. So very interesting. Eat the flesh in the house. Apply the blood on the house. He said, in the house where you eat it, you go into the house, eat the lamb, the flesh.

[10:06] But on the house, where the lamb is eaten, put the blood on the house. Did you see that in your Bible? Yeah. Yeah. Put the blood on the lamb. The verse five said, the lamb must be without fault.

[10:19] Clean, pure, without blemish. Number one, take the lamb. Number two, it must be without blemish. Number three, kill it. Number four, verse seven, put the blood of the lamb on the house.

[10:33] And then number five, eat it. Eat, eat it. Say eat. Eat. This is where I, I can possibly go off into a tangent.

[10:48] Eat. Say eat. Is that in your Bible? Let's look at it again. Number eight. And they shall eat the flesh in the flesh in that night.

[11:00] Roast with fire. And unleaven, unleaven bread has appeared here. We just read unleaven in first Corinthians. And said, eat it with unleaven bread.

[11:12] And with bitter herbs. They shall eat it. Oh wow. This thing is getting exciting now. Alright. So let's take it systematically.

[11:23] You say eat it. I would, I would like at this juncture to talk a little bit about eating. Say food. Food. I know Sam Poe won't say it. Because they've been thinking about it all along.

[11:37] Say food. Food. Say food. Food. Food. Are you ready for this? Very interesting. When God created Adam and Eve.

[11:49] When he created man. He didn't give them ten commandments. No. He didn't give them ten commandments. Rules. No. He didn't tell them do something for me.

[12:00] No. When he finished creating them. He told them now eat. He said. We were created to.

[12:19] If someone is not eating it's a serious medical issue. We were created to eat.

[12:30] So in the garden of Eden. When God created Adam and Eve. In Genesis chapter 2. Verse 9. Genesis is very easy to find.

[12:42] Just open to the first page of your Bible. A few pages from the first and you find Genesis and then chapter 2. Verse 9. And out of the ground out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food and the tree of life also was in the midst of the garden and the tree of knowledge of good and evil was also there.

[13:10] Hallelujah. Very interesting. Right from the beginning God created it. And when he created he made sure that there were enough trees and trees that will help you or trees we can eat from.

[13:24] Now look at particularly verse okay let's look at verse 7. Let's go back on myself. And the Lord God formed man out of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils and at the breath of life and he became a living soul.

[13:42] Okay. So man became a living soul. And verse 15. He says that and the Lord God took the man and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.

[13:55] And the Lord God commanded man saying of every tree of the garden you may freely eat. God created the garden put him there and there were trees and he said every tree eat.

[14:09] That's the only thing to him. He put him there so that man with his initiative can keep the place and dress it and dress it. But I said now go stay there and just be eating. You are just eating.

[14:21] Dressing it and eating. Dressing it and eating. Dressing it and eating. Many people think many young people think that's what all marriage is about. They realize that you have to go to work you have to manage someone's messy emotions.

[14:42] You have to put up with all kinds of stuff that you just can't stand. You want to marry? It's good but be ready to be able to accommodate what you can't stand.

[14:56] I always say I just can't live without you. I just can't live without you. No. He is coming with something you can't live with. You keep saying I just can't live without you.

[15:11] When I sleep I just see you in my dreams. No problem. No problem. Even he himself doesn't know he's carrying that virus which you can't live with.

[15:25] He doesn't know. His mama put it in his bag when he was packaging his bag to leave the house. So he didn't know what was in his trunk. He didn't know what was in his trunk.

[15:36] Your mama and papa your aunties and cousins they packed it for you. But he didn't know they put something there. When you go and settle with your wife or your husband you start to unpack and say uh oh what is this?

[15:54] So please keep your eye open before you settle somewhere keep your eye open look at the things not stop stop bringing me lists this is the kind of woman I want stop telling me about what kind of man you are this is the kind of man woman I want she must be like this she must be um six 36 32 31 I need a husband a man a man who does this kind of job he drives his own car who at least has a mortgage and and and it's very romantic and sometimes some of the young ladies add this he's funny you marry someone because the person he's funny you are a man who is funny you are not serious that's what

[17:06] I like about him why do you like him he's so funny he makes me laugh and then I need a man who will take me to the shopping center and pick my dresses for me who will follow me and I want a man that will always go to the kitchen and prepare tea for me it is very easy to do that when he's trying to grab you but after you are within his reach after he has grabbed you he will tell you I've got important things on my mind he will tell you I've got important things on my mind you go to their car you are waiting for him to come and open their door he sat down and slammed his door hurry up sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit out sit sit

[18:26] I will tell you what's wrong with your hands you have a problem with your hands but before you come with your list please can I give you a good advice stop thinking about your list and start thinking about your mess.

[18:50] Because most of the time, the people who are more messed up are those who have the longest list. Scrap your list. Scrap that list, sister.

[19:04] Take him like... Just take him like that because your market is very low. Of course. Maybe all there is to you is your hair.

[19:21] Are we going to eat hair? No, we don't eat hair. Maybe all there is to you, brother, is your deep voice. But you don't do it. You can if you secure a job.

[19:32] You are very lazy. You stay at home snoring, shaking the whole house. Maybe all there is to you is your beard. So, stop deceiving yourself thinking every woman likes me.

[19:49] As for me, I'm the ladies' man. Shame. As for me, I have a lot of men like me. Everyone is saying, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo.

[20:00] That one, that one is because of their last, not because of their future. No, when they are thinking future, they don't come to whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo.

[20:12] What are you going to do with that? Whoo let their dogs out. Whoo. Whoo. Whoo. Whoo. Whoo. All right, let's go back to Christ.

[20:25] I passed over. Eating. You see, I told you, I didn't want to go off into a time. Eating. We are eating. We are eating. So, he, so he puts a man in the garden, told him, command him, eat every tree.

[20:44] Free. Except the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. One. Just two. So that you can exercise your breaks. Those of you who are emotional is bad, go and sort out your breaks.

[20:56] You know what I'm talking about? Sort out your breaks. Your emotions are just leading you everywhere.

[21:11] You have lost quite a few jobs because of this, your emotional thing. You've lost significant relationships because of emotional tantrums. As for me, as for me, you better drop that, okay?

[21:28] Grow up, first life. Haven't you seen this? Haven't you noticed that this, as for me, as for me, is not taking you anywhere? But unfortunately, most of us have been trained to think about, this is what I deserve.

[21:41] This is what I want. This is what I want. No. Work on yourself and go for what must be. And put emotions aside. Sometimes, there are people you don't like, but you have to still work with them.

[21:55] They may be your bosses for 20 years. It doesn't matter. Work with them. For all you may know, God is using them to actually develop you. Yes. Every relationship, you enter, you break the relationship with world war.

[22:13] Every relationship. You are now like Assad or... Every relationship, you are breaking. And yet, you haven't realized that the problem is not... Because the same thing with A, B, C, and D.

[22:26] And yet, you believe all A, B, C, D have the problem. You don't have the problem. Maybe you got to check yourself. Stop my right, my right.

[22:37] This is how I feel. No, that's for children. That's for children. Sit down. No. It is. No. You have to eat some bread. No. I want ice cream.

[22:47] Only ice cream. I did. That's for children. But the older you grow, you check your bricks. You work on your bricks. He gave them freely, everything.

[22:59] God is a God of liberty. Many people think Christianity is about restrictions. No. It's about, it's actually about liberty. It's about liberty.

[23:09] That's right. It's about restrictions. They think, oh, if I'm going to be a Christian, God is going to give me a lot of restrictions on my sex life. No. No, no, no. Free. Free. Free.

[23:20] Free. Free. Free. Hey, some people didn't like that at all. I think I need to go more there. I need to go there. Some people say, I can go home, but just, no, if that's what you want, go.

[23:33] Go. Go. There is forgiveness in the blood for you. Yes. Go. But you will suffer. You will suffer broken hearts.

[23:44] You will suffer disgrace. You will suffer regrets. Regrets. Regrets. Regrets. Hardest bits. And then, I didn't know.

[23:58] And then you are looking for people to advise. So they don't commit, they don't repeat your mistake. I didn't know. No, learn from others' mistakes.

[24:10] You don't need to learn from your own mistakes. That's not wise. Learn from the mistake of others. Experience is not the best teacher. Yeah. Experience is not the best teacher. All right.

[24:26] So, God puts them there, said, eat everything, but don't eat something. Right. Is it because he was a cruel God? No. He just wanted to teach them restriction. Listen, teach your children restrictions and boundaries.

[24:40] A boundaryless child is going to be a menace to society. Teach children boundaries. Teach them, this is no. This is yes.

[24:51] You can't go here. You can't go here. It's not control. No. It's called discipline and nature. Yeah. Yeah. Listen, some of you, 20 years later, your children will come back and blame you for their woes because you didn't discipline them.

[25:12] Mom, you should have discipline. Mom, you should have discipline. It's all your fault. Now, look at how I'm messed up. I can't even manage my life. Yeah. God gives us children to prepare them for victories in life.

[25:27] Yeah. That's right. That's right. Homework, assignment, they will tell you when you are supposed to submit it. You don't tell them when you want to submit it. No, no, no, no. That's right.

[25:38] That's the stuff. Mm-hmm. If you study, degree, master's, PhD, they give you deadlines. Yeah. Not because the lecturer is wicked. No. But his strictness will help you save, go through life safely.

[25:54] Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, I think some, some mother here must determine to be a little bit strict. Because, if you raise, oh, this is about a serious woman.

[26:08] If you raise children in London and United Kingdom and in Europe and the West, without clear restrictions, you have given them ammunition to self-destruct.

[26:21] Yes. Yes. Yes. Because we live in a society that believes that it's just whatever, if it feels good, good, go ahead. Do it. Do it.

[26:31] As long as the law is not against it. Yeah. Or the law won't catch you. People are destroying their lives. Yeah. So, part of your, instead of going to try and buy them designer shoes, design their future.

[26:49] Give them designer values. designer values. So, God put them there to give them boundaries. I told them that. Don't eat this.

[27:00] He said, see, the emphasis was freely eat. Only this one, just leave one. This one, just leave it. Freely eat. Ma, I submit to you, the problem was not what they ate, but it's their will to eat.

[27:17] Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. So, it's not about it's not about a husband knowing your wife.

[27:29] God is not against it. If you know your wife and you are with your wife, the act of marriage, God actually will be clapping for you. Say, oh, go, go, go, go, angels who say, go, go, God did it like that.

[27:43] So, God is not against that. God is not against you having money. God is not against you living in a big house. Never.

[27:54] Never. Never. God is not against you eating chocolates. Sister, eat it. Eat it and then pay later.

[28:11] So, he gave them instructions that don't eat it and then put them in there to eat. Interesting. Now, let me go back to the eating quickly.

[28:22] So, God created us to eat. Eating is so important and your diet determines what you turn out to be in life. So, when they left Egypt, Egypt has entered them so much in Exodus chapter 16, they started crying.

[28:35] We want the food in Egypt. God said, no. That's why he gave them manna. So, when, watch this, before they left Egypt, listen to this, before they, I like this, I like this.

[28:48] Before they left Egypt, God said, yo, you can't just go, you have to eat before going. Kill the lamb and eat the flesh. Because you need to eat in order to be able to take some steps.

[29:03] If you don't eat this lamb, you are in trouble. Every house must have a lamb and that lamb must be killed, slaughtered, and then when you slaughter, take the blood, put it on the house, stay in the house, eat the lamb.

[29:19] Is someone getting what I'm saying? So, he told them, eat the lamb. And then they ate the lamb. Do you know why? You need that, they need that to eat the lamb for strength, for the journey ahead. If you don't eat the lamb, you don't have the strength to get out of Egypt.

[29:32] You need to eat the lamb. Eat the lamb. Because Egypt is going to still control you if you don't eat the lamb. Listen, you can apply the blood, but if you don't eat the lamb, you can't get out of Egypt.

[29:49] You've come to church, redemption, I'm redeemed, I'm redeemed, but you are not eating the lamb, so Satan is still perfecting you. Eat the lamb.

[30:03] Eat the lamb. Your spirituality is not predicated upon your willpower. It's predicated upon your internal strength, internal spiritual fortitude.

[30:19] The strength you have on your inside is what determines what challenges you'll be able to stand against. God, I know I'm talking to people here who have determined I won't do something again and then later on they found themselves, they did it eating worse.

[30:35] I won't do bad. You see, you know your problem? You know what's making you fail? You have no eating. Malnutrition is what is killing you. Not because you have a bad heart.

[30:48] Not because, so God will not send you to hell if you are born again and you failed in one or two. God will send you to hell because you are born again Sunday morning and Sunday evening you messed up and Monday morning you die so God said go to hell.

[31:06] No! No! No! No! You will suffer some consequences. You won't go to hell but there's judgment. I don't want to digress into that but now watch this and so you have to eat the lamb to be strong enough to be able to stand before Pharaoh and he said now you don't need a pastor to do the job the actual job of a pastor is not to deliver you from devils.

[31:38] No! No! It's to one to declare that that says the Lord to speak the prophetic word of God into your life you take it and start to run with it and two much more importantly to teach you the word of God so that you can take it and eat it and be able to run.

[31:57] if you don't eat the lamb you are stuck in Egypt because if it takes only the blood then God should have made an issue about the eating to the extent that he gave them details of how to eat it that means there was something about the eating and when they left Egypt in the wilderness they were hungry they wanted the food of Egypt God said no way I'm going to give you manna so he brought food from heaven particularly because your diet matters he brought food from heaven manna gave them manna to eat and when they entered the Canaan land he said now you are going to eat from the special fruits of this land it's about eating eating eating eating so when Jesus was tempted by the devil he said if you are the son of God command a stone to turn into bread so you can eat the first temptation was on food the first temptation of Adam was on eating eating that is why

[33:09] Jesus said in John chapter 6 verse 35 that I'm the bread of life unless a man eats me he doesn't have life you need to get the scriptures God showed me that the future of every Christian is a function of the word of God he has so he said kill the lamb eat the lamb in Genesis know the tree he told them to eat okay look at are you in Genesis chapter 2 I didn't move from there did I so look at it again Genesis chapter 2 verse 9 I read it earlier didn't I read it verse 9 look at verse 9 again thank you Holy Spirit thank you Jesus oh boy somebody is receiving healing right now somebody is being healed go back to the doctors and check yourself somebody is being healed and out of the ground the Lord God every tree that is pleasant to the side and good for food and the tree of the tree the tree of the tree of the tree of life was also in the midst of the garden and then there's another tree the tree of knowledge of good and evil and God told them verse 15 when he put them verse 16 he says that and the Lord commanded them that you are saying of every tree of the garden thou may freely eat but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil thou shall not eat of it for the day you eat it so only one tree including the tree of life they were free to eat and watch this but because of human heart condition when you read chapter 3 verse 24 they went to eat the other tree and God when the judgment came verse 24 chapter 3 says that

[35:07] God stopped them from eating the tree of life look at chapter 3 verse 24 it's good to talk about tree I spoke about food let me talk about the tree Genesis chapter 3 verse 24 are you there is that okay we all read it out loud if you don't have a Bible you are free to look into somebody's Bible it will be nice we all read okay right let's just do something we just I like the Bible it's good all right let's go are you ready verse 24 let's read it it doesn't matter our translation just read it let's go and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden cherubims and a flaming sword which turned everywhere to keep the way of the tree of life he dropped them out of the garden and put cherubims as a special type of angel and a flaming sword okay flame stands for judgment flaming sword to keep the way to the tree of life so they didn't eat the tree of life he said don't come to eat it now so the tree of life man was banned or was prevented from eating the tree of life until Jesus

[36:20] Christ showed upon us him Jesus said I am life anyone who eats me have life everlasting and when you see Revelation Revelation Jesus said that he who overcomes I will give him to eat the tree that is in the fruit of the tree that is in the garden of God look at Revelation chapter 2 from Genesis chapter 2 to Revelation chapter 2 interesting thank you Jesus have you seen it Revelation chapter 2 verse verse I think maybe verse 7 it says that he that has an ear let him hear what the spirit says unto the churches to him that overcomes to him watch this to him that overcomes to him that overcomes to him that overcomes say I will overcome to him that overcomes he says that

[37:28] I will give to it of the tree of life which is in the midst of the paradise of God it's still up for grabs but you know what I was shocked to see in Revelation that really let me just throw that in so that later since you are in Revelation chapter 2 look at verse 17 verse 17 is quite an interesting text have you seen it can you read it out loud together let's go let me digress a little bit God won't force you he said he that has an ear let him hear don't worry you are free not to want to God has never forced anybody to do his will so he said he that has an ear let him hear what the spirit of God is saying to the churches God will always speak to the church you determine to hear and then what did he say okay let's start again he that has an ear louder to him that overcomes what am I going to give him what what hidden manna manna hidden manna hidden where but manna came from manna came from heaven manna came from heaven

[39:05] God told them time will not permit me God told them eat it and make sure you take as much as you can and eat for the day tomorrow go again don't keep don't take some and keep it for tomorrow those who disobey God and kept it turn into worms so don't just eat it for the day tomorrow go again unless on the sixth day the sixth day take for two days portion because the seventh day you are not supposed to go you are supposed to rest it's a sabbath for God so then you can eat on the sixth day take the sixth day and the seventh day and then he gave strict instructions it's all in Numbers chapter 11 instructions that the manner that has come the only one that can survive preservation is the one you came for the sabbath day and then he said Aaron take part of it put it in a golden pot and put the pot in the ark of the covenant and put the ark of the covenant in the holies of holies which is in the tabernacle

[40:05] I told you I've got a lot to share it's called the hidden manor that will not permit me to give you later I'll be teaching the tabernacle would you like to hear about the tabernacle I'll be teaching you the tabernacle I'll teach you the menorah I'll teach you the table of shewbread I'll teach you about brazen leather I'll teach you about the incense altar there's a lot the cherubs the messes it all the propitiation cover where they put the blood in the ark of the covenant three objects that are inside golden pot the burden rod and the tables of what you eat matters that's why

[41:12] Christ is the lamb of God so he said take a lamb then John chapter 1 verse 29 Jesus was coming behold the lamb of God behold the lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world behold the lamb of God so now the lamb they were eating for one house God gave his own lamb for the world and the lamb was slain and his blood revelation can we go should I continue where I left or let me go revelation chapter 5 verse 6 I feel like preaching say revelation chapter 5 verse 6 he says he says let me take my Bible I love my Bible don't mind as I am jumping all over because it's like fire in my bones I can't just stay still the thing is too good I love the way this is doing something on my revelation chapter 5 please bear with me

[42:18] I just can't stand still because hallelujah verse 6 and behold and I beheld and lo in the midst of the throne the throne the throne in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts and in the midst of the midst of the elders stood a lamb as this has been slain having seven horns and seven eyes which is the seven spirit of God sent to the other world in the throne of heaven he said he said I saw I saw that's why we sang the song they sang the song worthy is the lamb that's why we said Jesus is the lamb of God watch this he's our Passover he was the lamb that was slain for us to be free but the lamb that was slain there are two aspects of it's the blood it's called the blood of redemption but the blood is not all the flesh the flesh is supposed to be eaten in a particular way the flesh you have to eat the flesh it is just that unless you eat the flesh of the son of man you don't have life so we have the blood of the redemption now look down let's continue let's look at this he said and verse verse verse verse verse 7 and he came and took the book and that lamb the lamb came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne and when he he had taken the book the four beasts and the four and twenty elders fell down before the lamb before the lamb

[43:52] I like that one before the lamb a lamb twenty twenty four elders in heaven they were falling before a lamb the lamb came and took a book from he who sat on the throne meanwhile there was no one who was worthy to open it and he said he said verse 5 he said John don't cry weep not for the lion of the tribe of Judah has prevailed so the lion has prevailed then when I looked I saw a lamb I thought you were talking about a lion yes this lion is a lamb Jesus I saw a lamb he told me the lion has prevailed but when I looked I beheld chapter 6 I beheld and no I saw in the midst of the throne a lamb and the lamb came and he took the book from the hands of him who sat on the throne even though no one was able to take it the lamb came and took it and the elders worshipped they fell before the lamb watch this watch this watch this I like this thank you Holy Spirit thank you Jesus verse 8 and when he had taken the book verse 9 verse 9 let's get to verse 9 and they sang a new song talking about the 420 elders and the elders they sang a new song saying thou art worthy to take the book and to open the seals thereof for thou was slain you know what it means to be slain what does it mean killed so you were killed you were slain you know the lamb was supposed to be slain so Easter is about the slain lamb

[45:19] Jesus had to come as the lamb of God to be slain I can't wait to get to Hebrews when he talks about he went to the holies of holies with his own blood Jesus went to the throne of grace he went to the throne of God he went to the throne of God and he said now therefore come forward to the throne of grace because no one could go there no one could enter the holies of holies until he went with his blood so in Hebrew Jesus is presented as a forerunner that's in Hebrews for your information that's in Hebrews chapter 6 verse 19 and 20 particularly verse 20 he's a forerunner pastor if he's just a forerunner that would have been nice but not just that he is the executor of the new covenant you know what it means to be an executor of a will if you leave a will and you don't leave it in the hands of an executor the will will not be enforced he died

[46:32] God gives you a word and the word is his promise and then when he gives you a promise for him to make sure that you believe so much you know that this is my promise he will make he will swear an oath and when he swears an oath on a promise it's not just a promise it becomes a covenant so he gives you a word the word is his promise and his promise when he swears I swear it becomes a covenant but I found out that there's something even stronger than a covenant what we have is not a covenant it's a covenant but it's stronger than a covenant it's that's why we have new testament old testament what's a testament watch this watch this what's the difference between a covenant and a testament what's the difference between a covenant and a will the testament contains promises the will contains bequests okay okay

[47:43] I'll explain it I'll explain it when I tell this is my dad is dead so this is my dad's will you are not expecting to find a promise I will do this for you is that what you're going to find in the will no what do you find in the will this one is for you this one is for you all right can I take it a bit further what I'm trying to tell you is that everything God will do for you has already been it has been done and secured waiting for you to rise up in the strength of the food you eat we are about to have some interesting times in church here can I go back to what I was talking about revelations okay so revelations chapter I was talking about chapter 5 we go to verse 9 didn't we verse 9 so verse 9 again of revelations chapter 5 it says that and they sang a new song saying thou art worthy to take the book and to open the seal thereof for thou was slain and has redeemed

[48:50] I can't hear you I can't hear you I can't hear you do you know what it means to be redeemed you have been bought back and taken back from something that had you watch this and thou has by your blood and has redeemed us to God by by what by what your blood it takes the blood to redeem us it took the blood the blood the blood the blood the blood the blood the blood of the lamb is what they're talking about wedding is the lamb you redeemed us and but didn't leave us there you redeemed us verse 10 and has made us praise and kings he redeemed us by his blood so the point what I'm trying to say is the blood is the blood of redemption say I'm redeemed if you are not okay master this is quick how do

[49:55] I how does a person get redeemed how do I know I'm redeemed it's easy to know if you have if Jesus has come into your life if you have given your life to hand over your life if you have taken over your life if you are living for Jesus that you've been saved you have been redeemed by his blood from what from the judgment of God that was an outstanding judgment on your head outstanding judgment how many of us have not done anything wrong before it's too late most of us lost our innocence at the age of one it's not a lie simple started lying at the age of one what have you put is there sweet in your mouth no some of us lost it very early virtually all of us from the age of two the first language no no rebellion no no no moms

[51:05] I told you don't do that no no no no no no no no no no no don't park here no I will park that's the speed limit no I will go beyond that pay your taxes no I won't pay my taxes pay for the train fare no you are an adult no I will pay a child fare he came to die to redeem us from his blood so with his blood from our sins from the judgment judgment judgment listen the church every true church has not got has got only one message and that message is always good news in the ears of anybody whether you are a thief you are a bin laden you are a creed doesn't matter who you are you have committed murders no no no

[52:09] God said I still am interested in you because of tomorrow that is called the good news good news doesn't make you feel you have to run away you are very useless no no no no no no no that's not the good news the good news is grace the good news is I have loved you with an everlasting love and there's nothing you can do about it you want me to prove I love you I will die for you to say I love you I love you that much so who is he who come and accuse you before him who died for you that's what Romans chapter 8 verse 35 says who accused us Christ died and redeemed us with his blood he won't accuse where you were last night but I have good news for you you are not going there again so chair puts the pass behind you and keep running but you can't run if you don't eat the

[53:22] Christian walk the Christian life is a race it's a race it's a race you can't run if you have been eaten Paul said I've finished my race he says I don't run like somebody running without an aim it's a race remember I said looking unto Jesus the let us do what run with perseverance you have to run keep running but if you haven't eaten you faint that's why I came this morning to give you the manna hidden manna he died on the cross to redeem us so he says the blood he redeemed us with his blood so what do we do with his flesh we eat his flesh he's our

[54:23] Passover lamb we eat his flesh how do we eat it okay so let's see what you are supposed to do with the flesh of the lamb you remember okay first of all I think we spoke about five already number one what did you take the lamb number two it must be spotless number three kill it number four take the blood put it on the house that's the redemption we are talking about number number five number five eat it number six number six number six quickly those of you who do it that very night verse eight don't waste time eat it that very night some of you say oh I'm waiting tomorrow I'll stop this I'll change this I know God is really talking that night eat it now that night that's a quick one isn't it that night that's verse eight and then number seven number six is eat it that night number seven is roast it with fire roast it with fire but

[55:32] I will leave that as number seven okay and come back I'll talk about the fire so let's go to number eight number eight is what verse eight verse eight let's read verse eight are you in Exodus chapter okay what does verse say today and then they shall eat their flesh on that night roastery fire with unliving bread two things unliving bread and bitter herbs what's unliving in in scriptures yeast or when we say something is living that means there's yeast in that bread yeast living it symbolizes sin evil sin okay so bad conduct evil sin that's yeast you are supposed to eat this thing with unliving bread so bread that has not got yeast inside that's why we read Genesis remember that's why we started 1st

[56:34] Corinthians he said okay let's go back to it keep your finger 1st Corinthians you have to see 1st Corinthians chapter 5 verse 7 purge out therefore the old living see the old yeast that he may be a new lamb as as ye are unleavened for Christ for even Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us so remove the living you don't need sin around your life this is how you handle Christ that you are eating you are reading your bible and still you are thinking about that girlfriend and the meeting you have with her and you have to say I'm not giving an apple I'm reading it about this girl no no the meat won't work eat it with unleavened bread eat it with a genuine intention to know God to stay away from sin to stay away from evil you must when you are coming to Jesus you must have the determination that I'm going to stay away from evil do you understand why do you come okay

[57:36] I've determined this one I will never forgive you I will never forgive you when I'm reading my bible and I'll see what you are missing the meat you are missing the meat of the lamb so you fail to have the strength to get out of Egypt unleavened bread time so let me move on and bitter herbs what are bitter herbs bitter it's like bitter herbs symbolizes the regrets of the past okay regrets of the past and being aware so it says that let's read it again verse what verse is that in verse 8 yes verse 8 so verse 8 of Exodus chapter 12 it says that and they shall eat the flesh that night roasted with fire and unleavened bread and with bitter herbs they shall eat it so bitter herbs is like a repentant heart regret repentance from that bitter things from that bitter past from that unpleasant thing as you are reading your word you have in mind that this thing that

[58:47] I've repented from this then it's good news for you hello am I communicating at all and then verse 9 what does verse 9 say quickly let's finish so now how many points have you got down are you sure it's 8 is it not 9 okay number 7 is roasted with fire number 8 unleavened bread number 9 bitter herbs number 10 you don't have to eat it raw what does it mean to eat Christ raw that's a good one what does it mean to eat Christ raw that's a very important one I don't want you to miss this so don't eat it raw what does it mean to eat Christ raw you are handling Christ as though some people tell you oh Jesus Christ there's nothing exceptional he's just a great man wonderful person he's a hero he's a great role model you are handling him like you lose sight of his redemptive work only one of the great confucius or some great person no he's not just a prophet don't take him just because

[60:06] Jesus was born Nazareth so he's raw no it is raw so that's what our world does they tell you Jesus is one of the prophets they're trying to make you eat it raw don't eat it raw and what did he say we shouldn't do again we should do he said don't boil it in water he said don't boil the meat in water say boil it not when you boil the meat in water you're trying to say he just died he's a martyr he's a good person they just didn't like him they kill him you water down his death it's like it's really not a redemptive death it's nothing everybody dies he also died no no no don't boil it with water don't water it down he actually died for you remember what we read in Revelation you redeem us by your blood quickly so how many of you got now okay quickly let's rush to it number one is what what do you do

[61:10] I can't hear you take the number two without blood number three kill it number four put the blood on the house number five eat it number six that night number seven roast it with fire number eight unliving bread number nine with bitter herbs number ten eat it raw now when he said roast it with fire so remember it's there again in verse ten he said don't boil it and don't eat it raw but roast it with fire what does it mean to roast it with fire what does it mean that you are roasting Jesus with fire in other words you are beginning to you are making yourself understand that he died under the judgment of God he came the judgment fire I told you earlier on fire stands for God's judgment God's judgment came on him so that you will be free so this thing is about Jesus when you are dealing with Jesus when you are dealing with Jesus Christ when you are coming to Jesus when you are eating the word know that someone died the thing you did last night the judgment has been put on him that's what makes you free eat it with fire eat it with fire and I think there's a last one so eat it with fire verse nine verse nine says that what does it say this is a very interesting one

[62:29] I'm finishing on this verse nine says that eat not eat raw roast it and his head did you see that his head with his legs and with his with his what pertinence thereof inside everything enters eat it all eat the shakitu quickly quickly the head the legs and inwards parts let's all say that together the head stands for the wisdom of Jesus the wisdom oh this doesn't make sense but as he made Bible don't throw away his wisdom number two his leg the move of God the move of Jesus excuse me the move of Jesus what if there's something on WWJG how would Jesus handle things like this how would Jesus want me to do it this is how you eat it okay so you include Jesus how would he have behaved his legs and then his entrails his intestines or his inward parts

[63:35] Jesus' emotions how he feels about this his heart what's the heart of Jesus about souls what's the heart of Jesus about church someone offended you in church and you are very upset you are blasting everybody in church all Christians are hypocrites you are the biggest of them that's why anyone who is always complaining people are hypocrites they are they are actually proper hypocritical I'm trying to find a better word for that hallelujah you must you must have fornication on your mind to be checking hey who is fornicating here it's on your mind first that's why you are thinking about it because actually if it's not on your mind you never think that these people they are there doing it it will cross you your mind but because that's what you if you get a chance that's what you will do there they wonder you think that's what they are doing quickly they understand the heartbeat of Jesus the way it feels it is like that and then the last one verse 10 what does it say what does it say verse 10 don't leave some eat everything some people are in

[64:49] Christ partially I am trying I am just checking you are checking Christ out I want to check it out is this about the language Satan has deceived us so much to think that we are all that and a bag of chips so it's like everything is about you BT is thinking about you NHS is thinking about you the government is about me I'm a taxpayer and this me I'm like this and everything the shop when you go to ASDA you didn't like the way they handle in fact now when you buy things they have to give you assessment form or something for you to rate Ikea I went to Ikea you are going out are you happy president if you are not happy president every time they want to know how you think so you have become very important it's good for marketing but if you bring that mindset to

[65:59] Christ it must be my way Jesus it might be my way if you don't do it my way me I'm not going hey no and so most of us are trying to check out what God will do then check it out no don't check God out open up God scan me he said search me and know my heart and teach me if there's any wicked way in me in some 139 verse 24 or 25 somewhere there he said search me and know my heart and try me and so if there's any wicked way in me and lead me in your path everlasting open up let God examine you it's better for God to put you through his scanning system than you go through that other medical scanning system he'll do a scan on you and he said Lord show me I'm willing to change I'm willing to change that is where blessings flow from your heart condition your willingness to give up for Jesus then he said I'll show you that I'm

[66:59] Jesus if you are God then prove he doesn't have anything to lose by not proving anything to you that's an interesting one if I were you I would be clapping for Jesus eat everything don't leave some shouldn't be half-hearted it should be partial and even when you are listening to the word don't be listening part and sleep part no eat everything did you hear sister eat everything did I give you 12 or 13 14 some people go 14 others go 12 they have an ear let them hear what the spirit of God is saying did you receive something at all come on give the Lord a big big shout for his redemptive blood for the work of the cross Jesus is our lamb Jesus is our pastor my lamb Jesus is our lamb I am free I've been set free from the grips of the devil I've been set free from the power of hell you are free from sickness you are free from shame you are free from guilt you are free from the power of the enemy give the

[68:10] Lord a shout hallelujah hallelujah if you are not saved you are not safe because life is dangerous life is not under your command I don't see why I should end this service without giving you an opportunity to say yes Lord pastor pray with me because I want to have this bread I want to put all my confidence in him all my hope in him I want to give my life to Jesus if that is your genuine desire just lift up your hand and say this after me say it genuinely from your heart say Lord Jesus I know I'm a sinner I've sinned against you I ask you to forgive my sins wash me with your blood thank you Lord for dying on the cross to save me from today I'll serve you I believe in you I put all my hope in you I put my faith in you as my Lord and personal savior I receive you into my life I make a vow with you that
