“When the Word of the Lord Has Free Course”
2 Thessalonians 3:1-5

There is something in every service that is the key for that service.
You need to let the Word of God search you out, seek you out, and move among you that which needs to be done among you.
Do not stop the working of God in your life and in the church service.
Are you stopping the Word of God form working in your life?
You need preaching that will keep you straight.
You need preaching that will affect the saints of the church, the heart of the believer, and in the home.
Pray for your man of God every day and definitely before he steps behind the pulpit to preach.
- It will have an entrance.
Faith cometh by hearing; and hearing by the Word of God.
- The entrance gives light.
It’s whether or not you let it in.
When God sends His Word it will knock on your hearts door. It will not accomplish that which God would have it to if you do not let it in.
Allow the door of your hearts to be open so it can come in.
If you do not allow it to work, you are not listening and you are not receiving.
There is something in very message for every person.
Your problem may be that you are not allowing an entrance; you’re not receiving.
Is the door locked in your life?
- Gives understanding
Work of God will show you the errors of your ways.
Allowing that entrance allows more understanding of the Word of God.
- It will cause you to have a desire to enlarge.
Isaiah 54:2
There is no enlargement if there is not entrance.
When you let the Word come in you’ll enlarge your life spiritually.
Your desire should be to enlarge more and more.
- It will edify.
When the Word of God comes in it will build you up and help you.
You should desire for it to get in your heart.
Let the Word of God preach you to the altar.
- Increase your faith.
You need your faith increased.
You need something to strengthen your faith.
Only the Word of God will edify.
Praising and testifying of God edifies others.
- It will magnify His name.
You wallow too much in your self pity and not in magnifying His name.
No entrance, no edification.
- It will always endure.
God’s Word will not return void, it will accomplish what God desires.
- Endure hardness
Be a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
- Endure sound doctrine.
- Endure afflictions.
Some afflictions are for the glory of God.
- Endure chastening
God will chasten His children.
When He whips you, just get up close to Him and hug the Lord; if you do, it won’t sting as bad and hurt as bad.
- It will encourage
- Those that are broken
- Those that are bound by sin
It will get you out of that sinning business
Sin is destroying many lives today.
Encouragement will happen, just keep letting the entrance stay open.
No free course if the entrance is closed.
You have to let it have that entrance.
The house of God, hearts, and homes are in trouble because there is no entrance.
Just open your heart to Him.
