June 9th 2019 Sermon Notes:

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

Speaker: Apostle Lucille Baird Theme: What’s your shoe size. Text: Gen 45:1-8 ; 36:1; 37:2

In buying things you must know your size, you must get the size to accommodate your feet size or your body shape. Everyone has and wears a different size. You can’t wear or step into any and everyone’s shoes. You have to find the right fit for yourself.

When God chooses your size stick to it because it’s the best fit.

Before you were born God had your size air-mark for particular seasons. He will adjust to suit how we grow. When you walk and fulfill your purpose he will adjust your size to match.

When you first start they may be a little tight but wear them and they will stretch to fit because they will shape you feet.

When your season is at hand God will skip over people to get to you. You favor is at hand. Favor isn’t fair.

Gen37: 2 -4
2 This is the account of Jacob’s family line. Joseph, a young man of seventeen, was tending the flocks with his brothers, the sons of Bilhah and the sons of Zilpah, his father’s wives, and he brought their father a bad report about them.
3 Now Israel loved Joseph more than any of his other sons, because he had been born to him in his old age; and he made an ornate[a] robe for him. 4 When his brothers saw that their father loved him more than any of them, they hated him and could not speak a kind word to him.

Joseph was born to carry and preserve the legacy of his father

You are a Joseph. Your legacy is depending on the way you wear them.

Remain obedient. God’s is about to leapfrog over certain people to get to you. He will cross his hands to get to you.

Step into the shoes God has created for you. Wear them well.

We are all born with purpose and destiny an angel is assigned but the enemy has assigned a demon to us that we won't be able to fulfill these.

The time is coming when you will be shown off ( exposed ) to your enemy. Don’t take off the shoes God has placed on your feet. They are there to walk on and over your enemies.

Keep your shoes on. Don’t change your destiny and purpose. These are your shoes.

Gen 45:1-11
Then Joseph could no longer control himself before all his attendants, and he cried out, “Have everyone leave my presence!” So there was no one with Joseph when he made himself known to his brothers. 2 And he wept so loudly that the Egyptians heard him, and Pharaoh’s household heard about it.
3 Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph! Is my father still living?” But his brothers were not able to answer him, because they were terrified at his presence.
4 Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Come close to me.” When they had done so, he said, “I am your brother Joseph, the one you sold into Egypt! 5 And now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here, because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you. 6 For two years now there has been famine in the land, and for the next five years there will be no plowing and reaping.7 But God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance.[a]
8 “So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God. He made me father to Pharaoh, lord of his entire household and ruler of all Egypt.9 Now hurry back to my father and say to him, ‘This is what your son Joseph says: God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me; don’t delay. 10 You shall live in the region of Goshen and be near me—you, your children and grandchildren, your flocks and herds, and all you have. 11 I will provide for you there, because five years of famine are still to come. Otherwise you and your household and all who belong to you will become destitute.’

I am a Joseph, God sent Joseph, to preserve life, God fitted him with tight shoes that have stretched.

We are chosen to be great ambassadors, we cannot divert the plans of God. The Church is the embassy. It is sacred ground, you have power and rights.

Your role and purpose is defined by God our feet shod with the gospel. If you wearing the wrong shoes ask God to give you the right size. Shoes signify the walk the purpose . Put your plans in the hands of God. You are an accredited diplomat sent to a foreign country to represent your government. You must be guided by your country what to do.

The enemy cannot get to you when you step out in the destiny of the Lord’s will for your life

We are the Church of God and we must speak out against all evil. Especially the Insurgent of Islam.

When people meet you they should meet Jesus. Don't forget your assignment.

Don’t try fitting into someone else’s shoes, wear your shoe size. When you wear the wrong size you will be hampered( stumble, tripped or fall ) the correct ones will take you through you desired journey without bunions bloodshot or sour feet.

Don’t fail God, you’re a generation with a legacy.
