"WHY ARE MY SHEEP LOST AND HURTING? FEED MY SHEEP."

JEREMIAH 50:6 MY PEOPLE HATH BEEN LOST SHEEP: THEIR SHEPHERDS HAVE CAUSED THEM TO GO ASTRAY, THEY HAVE TURNED THEM AWAY ON THE MOUNTAIN: THEY HAVE GONE FROM MOUNTAIN TO HILL, THEY HAVE FORGOTTEN THEIR RESTING PLACE.

*We have left the place of high standards-----(the high mountains) to low standards of preaching-----(to a low hill)

-We have compromised the gospel.
-We have lowered the standards of preaching; therefore the sheep are lost.


THE WORD OF GOD IS A STAND FOR HIS PEOPLE TO LIVE BY.

-It is a lamp unto my feet, a light unto my path.
-It is a compass for the lost.
-It is healing for the hurting.
-It is for correction, and for reproof.
-God's word is the food for his sheep; for Jesus said, "Man shall not live by bread along, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.
-So when we water down, compromise or alter the word that we preach then the sheep will go astray. Looking for or anything that fill the void for their hunger.
-His word will keep us safe.
-Without God's word the sheep will lose their way.
-God's word is what set's us apart from the world.
-David said, "Thy word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against thee.
-He knew that without God's word that he would sign against God, and even go astray like a lost sheep.
-Without the word of God being feed/preached to God's sheep they will go astray, become lost and hopeless looking for anything else to fill their void or longings.

(Nothing else is meant to replace God's word. Nothing else in the word will ever fill the void.

* Jesus as Peter 3 times if he love him, Peter, Peter answered him yes. Jesus said then feed my sheep.

-Feed them what? My word.
*Let's get back to preaching God's word.
-Let's Preach the truth about Sin.
-The reality about hell.
-And about Salvation as God 's Greatest Gift of Prosperity.

*Let's Direct the lost and hurting to Jesus; the Great healer (Jesus was the word made flesh) He said, "He sent what to Heal them?

-His word.
-He/the word is the only solution for mankind's emptiness.
-God's word is pure. If administered without man made props it will in and of itself will produce life.
-God's void cannot return void. So when given to his sheep, it will accomplish what God pleases.

Hurting people aren't just found in the world, but there are many that are lost, hurting and hopeless right among us---In the house of God.

-They are only, hurting and hopeless because we haven't given them what will heal---THE WORD.
-They are looking for the power that will heal them.

*Again God sent his word to heal them.

*Watering God's word down, or compromising God's word will not affect or bring change. Only the potentword of God brings healing.

-Their is still a balm in Gilead.
-Don't give in the seducing spirits, and yes doctrines of Devil's Pauls says. Don't compromise and preach sermons for itching ears. Don't white wash the walls any longer; but preach the pure, unadulterated sound word of God. Whatever God says---say that to his people.
-God 's word will produce life. There is a healing Balm in Gilead.

THE WORLD'S STANDARDS ARE EVER CHANGING BUT GOD'S WORD NEVER CHANGES.

-The scripture says, "For we are not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, for it is the power of God unto salvation....

-In other words---THE WORD IS THE POWER.
-For if the Gospel or God's word be hid or compromised then it is hid to them that are lost.
-Remember lost means can't find their way.
-God's word is a compass for the lost; it is healing for the hurting. "IT IS THE HOPE FOR THE HURTING AND THE LOST."


SAINTS IF WE COMPROMISE THE WORD THERE IS NO HOPE FOR THE HURTING OR THE LOST.


HEAVEN IS THE FINISH LINE! DON'T GIVE UP UNTIL YOU FINISH THE RACE. LET NOTHING STOP YOU. EVEN IF YOU GET TIRED, REST BUT DON'T QUIT! KEEP PRESSING ON!!!
