Lesson 47 of 77
Empowered To Serve THE DIVINE
{See Lessons 14, 32, 50, 56, 57}
By Lawrence DeMetrius

Yahweh expects HIS Elect to worship HIM with renewed intellect and in realty. The Lord Jesus said,

But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship HIM.
God is a Spirit: and they that worship HIM must worship HIM in spirit and in truth.
[St Jn 4:23, 24]

Because of the sin flawed nature inherited by all mortals from Adam, the Elect can only worship Yahweh through Christ the Word and the Holy Ghost. Apostle Paul writes,

For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of One shall many be made righteous.
[Rm 5:19]

The Lord Jesus said,

I am the Vine, ye are the branches. He that abideth in Me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without Me, ye can do nothing.
[Jn 15:5]

The Elect of God secure their success in divine productivity through faith filled obedience to HIM through Christ. Apostle Paul writes,

For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of HIS good pleasure.
[Phil 2:13]

I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.
[Phil 4:13]

Make you perfect in every good work to do HIS will, working in you that which is well-pleasing in HIS sight, through Jesus Christ; to Whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.
[Heb 13:21]

In their submission to Yahweh through Christ and the Holy Ghost, the Elect are protected from evil spirits that are permitted to challenge them on a daily basis. Regarding these daily challenges the Lord Jesus said,

Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought of the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
[Mt 6:34]

Ironically, this has been the purpose of evil spirits for thousands of years. Enoch writes,

And now, the giants who are produced from the spirits <angels> and flesh <mortals>, shall be called EVIL SPIRTS upon the earth, and on the earth shall be their dwelling. EVIL SPIRITS have proceeded from their bodies: because they are born from men and from the holy
Watchers is their beginning and primal origin; they shall be EVIL SPIRITS on earth, and EVIL SPIRITS shall they be called. [as for the spirits of heaven, in heaven shall be their dwelling, but as for spirits of earth which were born upon the earth, on earth shall be their dwelling.] and THE SPIRITS OF THE GIANTS <EVIL SPIRITS> afflict, oppress, destroy, attack, do battle, and work destruction on the earth <not in the heavens> and cause offences. And these spirits shall rise up against the children of men and against the women, because they have proceeded from them.
[Eno 15:8-12]

Regarding the victory granted to the Elect over all evil entities that come to challenge them on a daily basis Yahweh said,

Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.
No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper: and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of ME saith the LORD.
[Isa 54:16, 17]
Apostle James writes,

Submit yourselves, therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
[Jam 4:7]

In regard to Yahweh’s faithfulness to never allow more upon HIS Elect then they can bear Apostle Paul writes,

There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, WHO will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
[I Cor 10:13]

Christ Jesus expounds upon the challenges of evil entities, and teaches His brethren to daily pray for divine strength, to be at work in and through them, as they realistically acknowledge mortal weakness. The Lord Jesus said,

Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
[Mt 26:41]

Ask and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
For everyone that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
[Mt 7:7, 8]

My grace is sufficient for thee: for My strength is made perfect in weakness.
[II Cor 12:9]

I know your works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept My word, and hast not denied My Name.
Because thou hast kept the word of My patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
[Rev 3:8, 10]

Having this revelation in mind let every son of God always be Empowered to Serve THE DIVINE.
