April 14th Sermon Notes:

OPERATING UNDER THE EMPOWERMENT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD

Speaker: Apostle Chris Baird
Theme: All hail King Jesus
Text: Mark 11:1-10

Zechariah 9:9-10

9 Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion! Shout, Daughter Jerusalem! See, your king comes to you, righteous and victorious, lowly and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey. 10 I will take away the chariots from Ephraim and the warhorses from Jerusalem, and the battle bow will be broken. He will proclaim peace to the nations. His rule will extend from sea to sea and from the River to the ends of the earth.

Mark 11:1-10 1 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of his disciples, 2 saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and just as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 3 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here shortly.’” 4 They went and found a colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway. As they untied it, 5 some people standing there asked, “What are you doing, untying that colt?” 6 They answered as Jesus had told them to, and the people let them go. 7 When they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, he sat on it.

Most churches are conducted in the four walls. In Jesus day the Synagogue were very selected you had to be a devout Jew to get in but Jesus took to the streets and He has instructed us to ‘Go into the highway and byways’

What do we do with the time we have? We don’t have tomorrow but we have now to share the Gospel. We must always be ready to meet the Lord.

We must never ever be ashamed of the Lord.
The most valuable commodity on earth to God is his People.
God is concerned about all the people of the world no matter where and in what conditions you are in.
The blind man knew who Jesus was because he could see!

Verse 2-7
Because Jesus needed that colt He instructed the disciples to go and get it, He had already spoken to the owner, do they could take it because the Lord has need of it.

There are many churches that will not hit the street but we are all colts for Jesus, wherever he sends us we must be willing to go to be beast of burdens like the colt.

We can walk in God’s anointing under the Empowerment if the Holy Spirit. The church is called to be the vehicle God uses to go through out the world and spread His work.

God is still the same Jesus is always on time. When His Word goes forth the Spirit takes the word and puts it into the hearts of the people.

Human lives are important Jesus came to save the people of Barbados not Barbados.

The Master is concerned with the masses. What ever your condition, God is interested in you.

Mark 11:8-10
8 Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields.
9 Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted,
“Hosanna!”
“Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”
10 “Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!”
“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”

Jesus tells us to go and disciple the nations.

We have to lift up Jesus He will do the rest of the work.

He knows how to touch people that we cannot touch, Jesus will convict and minister to them like we can never do.

Allow yourself to be the vehicle that is used by God to facilitate these transformation.
Ask yourself a question what can I do, what can I offer to God that he can use.
The God that we serve is able to keep to deliver and to preserve that which is offered to Him.

The people in His day were hungry for change and they recognized who He was.

“Hosanna!”
“Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”
10 “Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!”
“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”

Would you allow yourself to be the vehicle that God can use?

The colt did not set the conditions he submitted to Jesus.
Joseph took a donkey and walked from Nazareth to Bethlehem to birth Jesus
Then Joseph took a donkey to escape to Egypt.
Jesus wants to use you make yourself available. Lord use me.

If You can use anything Lord You can use me
If You can use anything Lord You can use me
Take my hands, Lord and my feet
Touch my heart, Lord and speak through me
If You can use anything Lord You can use me

Lord, You called Moses from the wilderness and You put a rod in his hand
You used him to lead Your people over to the Promised Land
Lord, I'm willing to trust in You so take my life Lord and use it too
Yes, if You can use anything Lord come on and use me

If You can use anything Lord You can use me
If You can use anything Lord You can use me
Take my hands, Lord and my feet
Touch my heart, Lord and speak through me
If You can use anything Lord You can use me

When David fought Goliath and that mighty giant fell
He proved to his people that God was alive in Israel
Lord, I'm available to You and I'm waiting to be used
Yes I am, Lord
If You can use anything Lord
Come on and use me
