INTRODUCTION:

God has been meeting many in this day and making alive the word as found in the Scriptures. Peter wrote in his epistle, “whoever speaks, let him speak, as it were the utterances of God.” The words that a believer speaks need to come out of what has become real in a person's personal experience. As the believer experiences the Word, it becomes part of his being, then he is ready to minister that Word to others.

SHOW NOTES:

• In this new day, we are speaking words that God has imparted to our spirit, not words from man.

• The early disciples were given power to speak the Word of God with great boldness.

• When something God speaks comes alive in us, then it becomes a living word that can bring an impartation to others.

• If you come with Christ in you, people tend to listen, because it sparks a response in them of a hunger.

• Christ is forming His body to be the channels in the earth, to be part of bringing His Kingdom on earth.

QUOTATIONS:

• God didn't raise us up to talk about God; He raised us up to speak God into the earth.

• The consuming desire of the disciples was to speak, to proclaim the Word of the Lord: they believed and effectually demonstrated that the Lord Jesus Christ was speaking through them.

• There's no defined way you can actually say to do this, except simply open your heart and receive the Word, the unadulterated Word of God.

• It is very important that what you are going to speak is real to you; we're imparting what we've become.

• When you're speaking out of an anointing—out of the inner part of you being that's been—the appropriation has taken place and you have Christ there and He's living in you, and you speak that Word.

• There's an anointing that is far greater than a teaching. In fact, teaching doesn't even come close.

• Paul talked about a living Word and a dead word. What does a dead word do? It kills. We don't want to have a dead word. How does a living word come? It come out of the appropriation of Christ in you.

REFERENCES:

I Corinthians 2:9-10

“Things which eye has not seen and ear has not heard, and which have not entered the heart of man, all that God has prepared for those who love Him.” For to us God revealed them through the Spirit, for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God.

Acts 17:6

But not finding them, they dragged Jason and some the brothers to the city rulers, crying out,”They who have turned the world upside down have come here.”

I John 2:27

As for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you abide in Him.

Psalm 23 1-3

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul; He guides me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake.

Hebrews 4:12

For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

I Corinthians 2:1-5

And when I came to you, brethren, I did not come with superiority of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God. For I determined to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ, and Him crucified. I was with you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling, and my message and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and power, so that your faith would not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.

II Timothy 2:2

The things which you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.

TAKEAWAY:

Today we are in the day of the Body of Christ. We're becoming the channels to speak the word of the Lord to those who have open hearts and open ears to hear. Then they receive by impartation from that word the ability to speak as well. It's a process of becoming the Word, and as it becomes a part of you, then you can speak a word that if living to others.

What has the Lord spoken to you that's become real, to open your mouth and speak? It has to be out of what God has imparted to you, that as we're speaking, we are speaking words that God has imparted to our spirit, but not from a man, but from the Lord. And it doesn't matter whose mouth it came out of.

It's what it did inside of me. We are the Word of God. Why are we? Christ living within us. And it hasn't yet been revealed? You know what we will know what we will see. The Word says, " Eye has not seen, ear has not heard, neither has it entered the heart of man, the things that God's prepared for those who love Him, but He reveals them to us."

It's by revelation is how it comes. And that revelation Word is resident in your heart. God didn't raise us up to talk about God. He raised us up to speak God into the earth. That's who we are.

There's no limit to what He can do to a yielded vessel that opens their mouth and lets Him speak. The early disciples of Christ had a unique power to turn the world upside down.

What was the secret of their success? Was it because of their great abilities they had? I am sure the secret of that strange power was the Word of God, which they spoke with great boldness. The early believers did not talk about the scriptures or even engage in the exposition of scriptures, as did the scribes and rulers of the synagogue.

The consuming desire of the disciples was to speak, to proclaim the Word of the Lord. Like their master Yeshua, they were aware that the Word of the Father spoken through yielded lips from dedicated hearts would work a miracle in those who heard. They believed and effectually demonstrated that the Lord Jesus Christ was speaking through them. They knew that they were the members of His body. And the extension of their Lord upon the earth. Do we realize this?

This will give you an example of what we're trying to get to this morning. There were two people that were reading the 23rd Psalm. One was a professional. And he spoke it perfectly, word for word, perfect denunciation, perfect phrasing, everything was right.

But there was a little old preacher that knew the Lord and when he began to speak, the congregation that was there broke down and began to cry because they heard the Lord speaking. This is the cry. There's no defined way you can actually say to do this, except simply open your heart and receive the Word, the unadulterated Word of God.

Let it become something so alive in us that when we speak, the Lord speaks through us. It's the anointing that breaks the yoke. Where does the anointing come from? It comes from the Lord Himself who lives in each one of us.

Unless it becomes part of who I am, how can I minister it? If I don't have it in me, how can I minister it out? I become the Word, becoming a part of it, that is living. It's more than just looking at it and reading it.

To say it in that place of being a channel of impartation of His presence. That's where the true preparation comes from. It is very important that what you are going speak is real to you. We're imparting what we've become.

A person could stand up here like Ken was saying, could quote the 23rd Psalm. He has it memorized and it just falls flat. But if the Lord met you in it and you've become it and it's so real, it's burning in your heart, then when you quote that 23rd Psalm, there's an impartation.

In the early church they weren't. expositors. They weren't drawing from their great wealth of knowledge of the Torah. They weren't doing that. There was a fear on them. In fact, Paul said, I come with fear and trembling that my words aren't enticive, but they're full of power. If you come with Christ in you and you're speaking something that's living and powerful, people listen. They can't help but listen, because it sparks something in them, if they're hungry at all.

Ron, it reminds me of that saying, always be preaching the gospel and when necessary, use words.

Mike

Today we're in the day of impartation. We're the priests of the Lord that are transferring who we are, what we've become in the Lord by His grace, to those that have open hearts and open ears to hear. And instantly they can become by that impartation. It's not me, I'm just the channel. I'm the conduit that He comes in and through and does His thing. And what He does: this is the part that our minds have a hard time grasping hold of because He's about to do new things now that we've never seen before.

Are we gonna give Him the ability and the expression to be able to do just that? He's beginning by His Holy Spirit to help us to understand this.

Ken

When Your speaking out of the anointing, out of the inner part of your being that's been: the appropriation has taken place and you have Christ there and He's living in you, and you speak that Word.

There's an anointing that is far greater than a teaching. In fact, teaching doesn't even come close. Because that anointing breaks the yoke. Isn't that what the Word says? The anointing breaks the yoke. Yeah, it does. So when you start talking about the Lord or about things, that can be okay, but it's not the best. We're reaching for the thing that really ministers.

Paul talked about a living Word and a dead word. What does a dead word do? It kills. We don't want to have a dead word. We want a living Word. How does a living word come? It comes out of the appropriation of Christ in you.
