I Can’t Stop Now!!!

Jeremiah 20:7-9

Preached by: Bishop Julian A. Jones

Greater Emmanuel Tabernacle

February 18, 2010

Have you ever wanted to give up?? If you have then this message is for you. Bishop Jones preached at Greater Emmanuel Tabernacle and told us that we can’t stop now. Jeremiah came to place where preaching was no longer easy. People think that being a pastor is easy, but it’s a lot harder than you think. Bishop told us that if we want something to happen then we have to make it happen. It may not be easy, but you can’t sit around waiting for things to come your way. You don’t have to go out and follow the crowd or the world you can let them follow you. People are trying to change, but they’re not looking for a Word from the Lord, but for a personality. They want someone they can manipulate or for someone to tell them what they want to hear. Jeremiah thought that if God was really with him, then maybe the people wouldn’t make fun of him and ridicule him, so now maybe he needed to make a change. He is the only one calling on the name of Jehovah and they’re calling Baal so now there is an issue with Jeremiah. He is tired of being left out so now there are some things that he is going to stop doing. The first thing is that Jeremiah will no longer make mention of His name. He feels guilty for saying Holy Ghost, tarry, get-filled, and confess your sins. He notices that the people are with him when things are good, but as soon as things start to go bad they leave. When that starts to happen you have to know that the Holy Ghost gives you the Power when the devil comes and tries to take your joy, happiness, peace, or praise away. Jeremiah decided he was going to stop fasting and living right because he was tired of waiting on the Lord. He was tired because all that he did was not working and he wanted to walk away. It seems like just when you are ready to stop and give up like Jeremiah the Lord will come in and give you something that you forget. The Lord told Jeremiah to “come here, remember the first sermon you preached and how you felt?” Do you remember the first time you let the Lord into your life and how you felt at that moment. Just knowing that now things are going to get better because He is taking care of you is just as exciting as the first time. Jeremiah felt the same way when he remembered that first sermon. He began to think on that message and it stirred a fire deep down inside of him. He began to connect with the Holy Ghost and that message and it became fire shut up in his bones. Just when he thought he was going to quit he couldn’t because he said within himself “I CAN’T STOP NOW!!!!!!”
