Good morning. Praise the Lord. Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Welcome to Victorious Faith. I’m Cherry Campbell. This morning I’m going to begin sharing with you another message that I preached in one of our Victorious Faith healing services called Tap the Power. So join me now in our live service for part one of this healing message called Tap the Power. We’re doing a healing service tonight, so we’re speaking about the healing power of God. We’re going to be looking at the power and the mercy of God. The power and the mercy of God. And so let’s first look at the power of God. Turn over to Isaiah chapter 10. If you have your Bible with you, turn to Isaiah chapter 10. I’m going to read it actually to you from the King James translation. And it says in verse 27, Isaiah 10, 27, and it shall come to pass in that day that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder and his yoke from off thy neck and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing. We get a definition in that verse about the anointing. The anointing is the power of God that destroys yokes and removes burdens. The anointing is the power of God that destroys yokes and removes burdens. Now, I want us to see, let’s go over to Luke chapter 4. And we’re going to look at the ministry of Jesus and what Jesus said was his purpose. This was his mission statement. Luke 4, 18 and 19 was Jesus’ mission statement. In verse 18, it says, The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he has anointed me. So we see here, Jesus said, the spirit of the Lord is upon me because he has what? He has anointed me. So here again we see the anointing on Jesus. And the anointing definition we have is the power of God to destroy yokes and remove burdens. Destroy yokes and remove burdens. So he said, it’s on me to do this. He has anointed me. And then he talks about the different things. Preaching good news to the poor. Okay. Come back to that. But I want you to see that there is an anointing to destroy the yoke of poverty. As we’ve been talking on the radio about the law of sin and death is the same thing as the curse of sin and death. That when Adam sinned, the curse hit the whole earth. Everything on earth came under the curse. And the curse is death. Death, working slowly in the body, not on full power that zaps you and knocks you dead, but slowly, is sickness. Sickness is actually death. Working in low volume, low power, cell by cell by cell, until if it keeps spreading, it will eventually bring death. It’s like a slow death. If it doesn’t stop, if it doesn’t reverse, it’ll be a slow death. So sickness is death working slowly, little by little. Well, guess what? Poverty is also death and finances. Poverty and lack are death in finances because the blessing is the anointing to what? Multiply. The blessing multiplies. Well, what would be the reverse of that? Decrease. If blessing increases and multiplies, then the reverse, the curse is decrease. And it’ll decrease, decrease, decrease, decrease until there’s zero left. And that is the curse working in finances. That is death working in finances. It doesn’t bring increase. It brings decrease. At times, like you say, I work and I work and I never get ahead. Where is the blessing? The blessing would bring the increase in the fruitfulness that you are looking for and expecting. And so… Hold your finger here. Jesus came to preach the gospel. And this is the gospel. However, I like to point out, and I’ve said it on the radio, and I said it before, but traditional Christianity thinks of the gospel message as the message of the cross, meaning specifically new birth. The gospel and we have evangelists that preach the gospel and they are usually preaching the cross. They’re preaching salvation. I don’t even like to use the word salvation because I know what salvation means, but they preach new birth. They preach getting born again. But that’s not the gospel that Jesus preached. Hold your finger here in Luke. This is the gospel that Jesus preached. Right here in Luke 4. But hold your finger and we’re going to come right back here. But I want you to go over to Matthew. And if you haven’t heard my teaching on the kingdom of God, it was the first major foundational teaching that I did. And it’s because it’s foundational for everything else. And it’s the foundation for every Christian. And it’s the kingdom of God. It was seven weeks, 35 programs. And you need it because most Christians do not know what I’m telling you. And without this understanding, you’re going to be missing a lot of what God has provided and made available. Without this understanding, the Lord has shown me over the last several years, the kingdom of God became such an all filling subject. And the Lord kept giving me more insight on it. And then he showed me it’s actually the platform that every other biblical teaching needs to be based on. Faith is a pillar based on the platform of the kingdom. And righteousness is a pillar that needs to be based on the platform of the kingdom of God. Salvation, born again, is a pillar that needs to be understood on the platform of the kingdom of God. Healing is a pillar that needs to be understood based on the platform of the kingdom of God. And if you don’t understand the platform of the kingdom of God, you’ll never understand faith correctly, healing correctly, righteousness correctly, even new birth correctly. Until you understand the platform of the kingdom of God. Because the kingdom of God is the all-consuming package of all of it. You see? Hallelujah. And so let’s go back to Matthew chapter 4. And let me show you. Matthew chapter 4 and verse 23. Jesus went throughout Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of what? Say it. The kingdom. The kingdom. Jesus preached the gospel of what the kingdom and then go to Matthew chapter 9 and verse 35. Jesus went through all the towns and villages teaching in their synagogues preaching the gospel of what the kingdom. He didn’t just preach new birth. He preached the kingdom. And then you go on and you’ll see that actually in the teaching series that I did on the radio, I went through all the scriptures in the four gospels where Jesus preached the gospel of the kingdom, the gospel of the kingdom. Every time it’s the gospel of the kingdom, it doesn’t ever say gospel of anything else. It’s always gospel of the kingdom. And then notice and think, and it’ll draw your attention. I really want you to hear that series if you’ve not heard it, because it shows you that he kept saying things like, who is the greatest in the kingdom? And the disciples were arguing about who’s the greatest in the kingdom. And Jesus said, if I cast out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you. And he said, the kingdom of God is near. And the kingdom of God is here. The kingdom of God is here. The kingdom of God is near another place. He said, the kingdom of God is within you. The kingdom. So then we go back to a definition of the kingdom and it is the rule and authority of God. It is his we’re talking about right now in the series on the radio authority of the believer, the law of spiritual authority in our jurisdiction. Now God has authority. He is supreme in authority. He is the highest of the high and the mostest of the most. He’s the most high. And he has a kingdom that rules over what? Over all, the Bible says. The Bible says his kingdom rules over all. Now, what does that mean? His rule, his authority and dominion rules over all. But Jesus came to earth to bring the kingdom of God to earth. To bring the rule of God to earth. In other words, if you think of it like Great Britain. Great Britain, 150 years ago, was a world ruling power. And they had colonies. Colonies. All over the world. India was a colony. The United States were colonies 200 years ago now. Over way back. But we were colonies of Great Britain. What does it mean to colonize? Colonizing is when you spread the kingdom or the rule of Of one nation or government over other lands and territories. When they expand their rule over other territories. So that the United States was a territory that Great Britain ruled over. India was a territory. Well, the kingdom of God started in heaven. And that’s why it’s called the kingdom of heaven also. Some theologians try to split hairs and make a difference between the kingdom of God and kingdom of heaven. And there is no difference. There’s only one kingdom of God, kingdom of heaven. They’re one in the same kingdom. They’re not two kingdoms. One kingdom, one God and king over one kingdom. But the difference is, is the way I understand it. Like when you think of the kingdom of Great Britain, Great Britain was the originating location country where it started. Or you could have said whoever was in rule that time, Queen Victoria. It was the kingdom of Queen Victoria. Referring to the head leader of the country, the kingdom of Queen Victoria or the kingdom of Great Britain, Great Britain being the name of the country. So kingdom of God refers to the head leader. Kingdom of heaven refers to the originating country where it started. What you just heard was part one of a message that I preached in one of our victorious faith healing services called Tap the Power. And we will continue this healing message again tomorrow. So join me again tomorrow. And remember, God loves you. You are blessed and highly favored by the Lord.
