The Shot of Victory
II Kings 13:14-19
June 28th, 2009

Pastor Mark D. Boykin

They lose the moment, but God doesn't and knows how to deliver you from the attacks of the enemy.Church of All Nations Senior Pastor Mark D. Boykin preached a short but timely sermon, June the 28th, from the book of II Kings 13:14-19.

Pastor Boykin began his message by stating spiritual battles do not begin without provocation. "When you have a promise from God, or a blessing that you have been holding onto, suddenly a battle develops between you and the enemy,” stated Pastor Mark. It is a forgone conclusion that for every spiritual battle, there is a promise of sublime blessing the moment you begin to act upon it.

The bible confirms, "my people perish for a lack of knowledge"; this is why many Christians today are bound in fear or tied to the post of indecisions. They lose the moment, but God doesn't and knows how to deliver you from the attacks of the enemy.

Proverbs 2:8 says, "for he guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones." You need to be persevere and to delight yourself in the Lord. Spiritual warfare is part of our Christian experience. We need prayer for the victory to be ours. Go to the mountain of God’s blessings to defeat the enemy that does such easily beset you. Shout thank you Jesus, for the victory is mine!

WHY WE MUST MARCH!

Pastor Mark D. Boykin

Pastor Boykin stated, "we come today to reclaim America, this is why we must march. One does make a majority, one can turn a nation around."
Pastor Mark shared two fundamental points with the congregation:

1.- Sanctity of Human Life
Human life starts before birth. As written in the book of Jeremiah, “before I formed you in the womb, I knew you, I sanctified you.” Prior to the time you were born, God's DNA flowed within you. Now as joint heirs with Christ Jesus, we not only have the right, but the spiritual responsibility to human life.

We must march beginning in South Florida and then across this great land of ours. We must do our part and God will fulfill His purpose through us.
 

In Genesis, God created man on the sixth day. He is the giver of life. Fifty million unborn lives have been sacrificed on the altars of abortion since 1970. All those innocents had a soul and a future but we have allowed them to be killed. When did choice became more valuable than human life? Satan knows this is a prophetic generation, that is why he is stepping up his attacks on Christians worldwide. Our nation’s moral compass has been inverted to the point of perversion. This is why we need national repentance.

2.- Sanctity of Marriage
Marriage is the sacred union of one man and one woman and has been ordained by God. God created man and woman; not man and man nor woman and woman.

Homosexuality is abnormal behavior, it is sin. We are all sinners saved by grace. God created woman to give birth to and to nurture life while homosexual marriages proliferate across our nation.

Churches are sanctioning homosexual priests. Those in authority who should know the word of God, are authorizing and approving these abominations and will one day stand before the Almighty and be held accountable for it.

We are to be a sanctified people and to repent because God's judgment is coming. Now is the time for repentance.

Rev. Jeremy Buckmeier
Five Ways God Ministers Love to Us

Rev. Jeremy Buckmeier

Rev. Jeremy Buckmeier was the guest speaker for the June 28th 1:30 pm service. Bringing an amazing message, Rev. Buckmeier highlighted five different love languages God uses to minister to us. Citing several illustrations found in the word of God, Rev. Jeremy highlights John 13:5.

1.-Act of Service- in John 13:5 Jesus is performing an ultimate act of serving washing the disciple’s feet.

2.-Word of encouragement- In Jeremiah 31:3 God gave word of encouragement to Israel trough the prophet Jeremiah;

3. - Touch - In Luke 7: 38-39 where a sinful woman touched Jesus, washed His feet and wiped them with her hair.

 
4. - Gift- In 2 Chron. 1:7 God asks Solomon,” what shall I give you.” Solomon responded by asking for the gift of wisdom, and was not only given wisdom, but richness and long life too.

5. - Quality time- In Exodus 24:18 God revealed to Moses how the world was to be created. This intimacy of communication was a result of the 40 days of quality time Moses spent with the Lord.

Rev. Buckmeier concluded his message by encouraging the church to focus on these five love languages and to practice them in our daily lives. Rev. Jeremy also explained the importance of being sensitive to, and listening for, the Holy Spirit as we minister towards our loved ones, families, and neighbors.
