YOU ARE GOD'S SYMPHONIC POEM BUILT ON GLORIOUS NOTES OF VICTORY IN CHRIST - [Sermon Note]

Pastor Stephanie




DEUTERONOMY 31:1-2 CEV

Moses again spoke to the whole nation of Israel: I am 120 years old, and I am no longer able to be your leader. And besides that, the Lord your God has told me that he won’t let me cross the Jordan River.


DEUTERONOMY 31:3-5 CEV

But he has promised that he and Joshua will lead you across the Jordan to attack the nations that live on the other side. The Lord will destroy those nations just as he destroyed Sihon and Og, those two Amorite kings. Just remember—whenever you capture a place, kill everyone who lives there.

Giants are there to stop us.

It is the thoughts that will stop us from believing the Word of God.


Kill the enemies, kill the giants.


Today, Jesus is the one who take us into the promised land.

God is the Word.


DEUTERONOMY 31:7 CEV

Then Moses called Joshua up in front of the crowd and said: Joshua, be brave and strong as you lead these people into their land. The Lord made a promise long ago to Israel's ancestors that this land would someday belong to Israel. That TIME has NOW COME, and you must divide up the land among the people.


DEUTERONOMY 31:8 CEV

The Lord will lead you into the land. He will always be with you and help you, so don't ever be afraid of your enemies.


DEUTERONOMY 31:9 NLT

So Moses wrote this entire body of INSTRUCTION in a book and gave it to the priests, who carried the Ark of the Lord’s Covenant, and to the elders of Israel.


DEUTERONOMY 31:10-11 NLT

Then Moses gave them this command: “At the end of every seventh year, the Year of Release, during the Festival of Shelters, you must read this Book of Instruction TO all the people of Israel when they assemble before the Lord your God at the place he chooses.


DEUTERONOMY 31:12-13 NLT

Call them all together—men, women, children, and the foreigners living in your towns—so they may HEAR this Book of INSTRUCTION and LEARN to fear the LORD YOUR GOD and CAREFULLY OBEY all the terms of these instructions. Do this so that YOUR CHILDREN who have not known these instructions will HEAR them and will LEARN to fear the Lord your God. Do this AS LONG AS you live in the LAND you are crossing the Jordan to occupy.”


Sins has already been taken by Jesus.


Learn the wisdom of God.


Let us not stay at the outskirt of the promised land.

Stay inside the promised land.


DEUTERONOMY 31:14 NLT

Then the Lord said to Moses, “The time has come for you to die. Call Joshua and present yourselves at the Tabernacle, so that I may commission him there.” So Moses and Joshua went and presented themselves

at the Tabernacle.


Moses is to commissioned Joshua to lead the Israelites.


Go into the promised land and lead others into the promised land.

Anyone can be a leader if they choose to.


DEUTERONOMY 31:15-16 NLT

And the Lord appeared to them in a pillar of cloud that stood at the entrance to the sacred tent. The Lord said to Moses, “You are about to die and JOIN YOUR ANCESTORS. After you are gone, these people will begin to worship foreign gods, the gods of the land where they are going. They will abandon me and break my covenant that I have made with them.


We are going to join our ancestors one day in Heaven.


DEUTERONOMY 31:17-18 NLT

Then my anger will blaze forth against them. I will abandon them, hiding my face from them, and they will be devoured. Terrible trouble will come down on them, and on that day they will say, ‘These disasters have come down on us because God is no longer among us!’ At that time I will hide my face from them on account of all the evil they commit by worshiping other gods.


DEUTERONOMY 31:19 CEV

Moses and Joshua, I am going to give you the WORDS to a NEW SONG. WRITE them down and TEACH the SONG to the Israelites. If they learn it, they will know what I want them to do, and so they will have no excuse for not obeying me.


We give back the glory to Him when we worship.


Song of Moses is about what God has done.


DEUTERONOMY 31:30 CEV

Moses called a meeting of all the people of Israel, so he could TEACH them the WORDS to the SONG that the Lord had given him. And here are the words:


We grow by words and not by song.




DEUTERONOMY 32:1-2 CEV

Earth and Sky, listen to what I say! Israel, I will teach you. MY WORDS will be like gentle rain on tender young plants, or like dew on the grass.


Listen to His Words and what He is saying.


DEUTERONOMY 32:3-4 NLT

I will PROCLAIM the NAME of the LORD; how GLORIOUS is our GOD! He is the Rock; his deeds are perfect. Everything he does is just and fair. He is a faithful God who does no wrong; how just and upright he is!


When we have been poured upon with the Word of God, then we proclaim the name of the Lord.

We will begin to proclaim, to preach, to publish and to speak about the names of the Lord.


DEUTERONOMY 32:5-6 NLT

“But they have acted corruptly toward him; when they act so perversely, are they really his children? They are a deceitful and twisted generation. Is this the way you repay the Lord, you foolish and senseless people? Isn’t he your Father who created you? Has he not MADE you and established you?

DEUTERONOMY 32:45-46 NLT

When Moses had finished RECITING all these words to the people of Israel, he added: “Take to heart ALL the WORDS of warning I have given you today. PASS THEM ON as a command to your children so they will obey every WORD of these instructions.


Today we are blessed because of Jesus' obedience to His Father.


We obey because we want to not because we have to.

God doesn't compel anyone.

We want to be in the presence of the Lord.


We love Him because He first loved us.















DEUTERONOMY 32:47 NLT

These INSTRUCTIONS are not empty words—they are YOUR LIFE! By OBEYING them you will ENJOY a LONG life in the LAND you will OCCUPY when you cross the Jordan River.”


God's word is not an empty word. It is full of power, energy and life.


We don't live our life on feelings and emotions but on the Word of what God says we are.

We rule over our emotions.

Spirit man can only rule when there is Word.

SYMPHONIC POEM

an elaborate musical composition for full orchestra, typically in four movements, at least one of which is traditionally in sonata form: "Beethoven's Fifth Symphony"


The absolute basic difference between a Symphony and a Symphonic poem is that a Symphony on the whole is music without a story with some exceptions. The Symphonic poem is an orchestral fantasy that tries to TELL A STORY.


EPHESIANS 2:10 AMP

For we are His workmanship [HIS own MASTER work, a WORK of ART], created in Christ Jesus [REBORN from ABOVE—spiritually transformed, renewed, READY to BE USED] for GOOD WORKS, which God prepared [for us] beforehand [taking paths which He set], SO THAT we would WALK in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us].

EPHESIANS 2:10 TPT

We have become HIS POETRY, a RE-CREATED people that will FULFILL the destiny HE has given each of us, for we are joined to Jesus, the Anointed One. Even before we were born, God planned in advance our DESTINY and the good WORKS we would DO to FULFILL IT!
