About The Author

A CKNOWLEDGMENTS

First and foremost I wish to give all the glory, honor, and praises to the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost for this entire book. From the cover to, every place and person the Lord sent to me or across my path. Truly without them none of this would have been possible.

C ONTRIBUTORS

To my wife, who gave me a choice to choose between the Lord or her?

To my two children, who chose to leave home right after high school to pursue their own calling? This in itself left me nowhere else to go but to the Lord. (2 Sam. 7: 10)

To everyone the Lord used from the least who persecuted me daily, even to the greatest Angelic massager the Lord used to minister to me. Special thanks two Brother Edwards for all his help.

The Ryrie Study Bible; By Charles Ryrie. Copyright ©1978, Moody Bible Institute of Chicago Moody Press. Used with permission. This was the bible that I used throughout this book. Out of all the bibles I have read, this one was more alive to me. God’s Word jumped out of its pages onto me after prayer. Special thanks to Jennie Sawyer for Janet McVay Editorial Assistant, to whom gave me permission to copy God’s Word.

To the Christian Complex Church in Bunnell, Fl. 32110 and all my brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus for their support and fellowship. Special thanks to Pastor Cheal who kept me planted, watered and humble.

To the University of Biblical Studies of Bethany, Oklahoma 73008 for opening my eyes to religion.

I am most thankful and grateful for My Lord and Savior in using me in putting this book together and in helping me not to limit Him in what you have before you today. Amen…

SECTION ONE:

WHAT,

WHEN,

WHERE

AND

WHY THIS BOOK.

I NTRODUCTION

G reetings to those who are called of God and to His church: grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. In Pro. 5: 21 it says, For the ways of man are before the eyes of the Lord, and he pondereth all of his goings. The Lord sees you when you go forward or backward or to the left or right: you can run but you can’t hide. As much as I would like to hide, God won’t let me. You see my biggest desire is that it would be Him, not me, in everything you see, feel, and hear in this entire book from cover to cover. In order for you to understand why the Lord would have anything to do with me in the first place concerning this book, I have to tell you a little bit about me. I don’t like it any more than you do, so here goes…

In Pro. 5: 23 it says, He shall die without instruction: and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray. God’s word is talking about you and me here: without the right instruction we shall die. When I first came to the Lord, I was blessed immediately with someone giving me a bible. You see some people when they first get saved they have a lot of questions and no answers. Many don’t own or have a bible, or church to go to; let alone anyone to communicate and have fellowship with. I was right there with the best of them until someone gave me my first bible. With time I found out that all the answers to my questions were in God’s Word. In the beginning on this journey with the Lord, I had asked Him if there was a self-teaching how to book that anyone can read and grow up to be who He wanted them to be. When I read Jn. 15: 5 it said, "For without Me ye can do nothing." I knew right then and there, it was Him that I needed to instruct me, not man. For more than ten years God blessed me with His instructions. In doing so, I did something that most people wouldn’t even think of doing.

As I was being instructed by Him, I took notes. Like when certain scriptures jumped out of the page at me, or when the Lord answered a question I had with His Word. The more I read and heard His Word, the more I wanted to know, learn and understand about Him and His promises. So when the Lord had me doing bible studies or preaching to the congregation, I would not do it unless it was Him, not me. So I used the notes that I took with God’s instructions that He gave me and something incredible happened…

You see not only did God’s instructions change the way I was in everything I said and did, but it also changed everyone He had me minister His instructions to. Can you picture what it’s like for someone to hear the truth for the first time? After a bible study one night, I saw someone come right out of their wheelchair and walk out to a vehicle. Without anyone praying for that person. By just being there and hearing what God gave me in His instructions? This was the very thing that this person needed to change and turn their life around. I started seeing changes in everyone, and their growth was miraculous.

They went from talking the walk or saying one thing and doing something else. To walking the talk or did everything they said they would. He gave me the desires of my heart, and showed me that it was Him and not me: for truly I can do nothing without Him. My thirst and hunger for His instructions grew more and more and He revealed unto me, the mysteries of His word in ways I’ve never seen or heard taught anywhere. If you have a real hunger or thirst for Gods instructions and are serious about it, then this book is a must for you. My desire now, is to get these same instructions to you and see how God blesses you.

God bless you two folds

Cover Letter

God’s Instructions From

Walk The Talk Ministries

G ood morning. Grace be to you and peace from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ. In Act. 10: 34 it says, God is no respecter of persons: It doesn’t matter if you are male or female, big or little, black or white, foreign or domestic, what’s important is your thirst and hunger for God’s instructions, and you have taken the first step. Jesus said it best when He told His disciples, The word ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me. (Jn. 14: 24)

God woke me up in the middle of the night so you can get this message hot off the press. I know without any doubt whatsoever God has done for me and still is, He can do for you. These instructions that God gave me are written in a way to help you grow and walk with the Lord. In Pro. 8: 33 - 34 it says, You need to hear God’s instructions to be wise and blessed. This means when you are reading these instructions you also need to hear them. This will make all the difference in the world in your personal relationship with God.

The more you do it the more you will not want to do without it. If you put God first, He will put you first. When you read this letter and all of God’s instructions out loud, try to be all alone by yourself, because the devil will use anything and anybody to steal God’s instructions away from you. Just like when you plant a seed in the ground you have to allow enough time for it to do its part before it can grow and manifest itself. There is something you must do before you are blessed like I was with these instructions and that is, you must ask the Lord to open your eyes, ears, and understanding, before you go any further with this letter and God’s instructions.

In Jas. 4: 2 it says, Ye have not, because ye ask not. If you don’t ask, He does not have to do it. I certainly can’t do it for you. The bottom line is how serious are you in having a personal relationship with hearing and seeing Him? Whenever the Lord uses me to do a Bible study or to preach from His pulpit, He has me prepare His people to receive His instructions. He’s telling me right now to prepare you in the same manner. If you’re reading this letter just to hear me, you’re wasting your time and God’s. But if you are reading and hearing God’s instructions to see and hear what God wants to tell and show you, then God will knock your socks off!

In Gal. 6: 7 God’s word says, For whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. In other words, you need to give something to receive something from the Lord when reading and hearing these lessons prepared for you. Each lesson is like a complete meal. You have your appetizers, your soup, your salad, your main course, and your dessert. But some people just go for the appetizers or the dessert not taking the time they should for the main course. Many go to the Lord in different ways, like prayer or going to church. But most have one thing in common; they come to the Lord with their needs and wants. God has needs and wants also. What I am trying to say is, many times without realizing it, we limit God in the way we receive answers to our prayers, needs and wants because we don’t take the time to see and hear what it is He’s trying to tell and show us. I tell people if they came to see and hear me they’re in the wrong place. God knows all your needs and wants, even before you do.

If you want to have a personal relationship with the Lord, you need to be able to give and to receive. When you read and hear each lesson, leave all of your troubles, problems, fears, needs and wants outside the room you’re in. I’ll guarantee they’ll be waiting for you when you come out. Each time I hear and see God’s instructions I get more and more from Him that I can apply and use each and every day. For me it is very exciting when God has me share His instructions with others.

Like in an open Bible study where the Holy Spirit moves miraculously, manifesting Himself in many different ways through others in the room. If we go to the Lord with me, myself and I, where does God fit in? I’m not saying everyone is like this but many don’t know any better limiting answers to their prayers, needs and wants. If you don’t let God get His 10%, how are you ever going to get your 90%? For some of you there may be a lot of things you already know written in these lessons. You should take the time to see and hear those things you don’t know.

Take a sheet of paper and take notes on what God is trying to show and tell you. Always use notes because you never know when God may want to knock some socks off using what He gave you some time down the road. I’m just an anointed vessel of the Lord, used of God, and I may have a funny way of saying and doing things. That is why it is so important for you to make and use your own notes. There are many things I cannot do very well, such as spelling and writing. You can see where this could be a major problem for me especially in writing this letter and all of God’s Instructions to you.

When Moses needed help God sent Aaron to help him. When I needed help, the Lord sent Brother Edwards to help me. He had a special gift from God; he could spell really well and knew a lot about punctuation marks, and all about writing letters. Not only did God bless Brother Edwards by increasing his ability in spelling and writing, God also increased mine. (A two-edged sword.)

By the time Brother Edwards had finished helping me with four lessons and two cover letters, he came to me and said, It was scary at first. Because he was hearing the Lord speak to him, telling him things to come and confirming His Word. That’s when I got excited, because God was manifesting Himself through others with the use of this cover letter and lessons. (Answer to prayer.)

I have devoted an entire page at the end of each lesson for any additional notes you may have. This way every time you read and hear these instructions you will get more out of them. As you read and hear these lessons, see if you can find what was said, or read that made it possible for someone to hear God’s voice. See if anything you read and hear makes a difference in your life? If you use what God gives you, He will give you more.

As you hear and see His instructions and start using and applying them each and every day in your walk with God your life will never be the same. Amen…

I love you in the lord always.

GOD’S

INSTRUCTIONS

FROM

WALK THE TALK MINISTRIES

Lesson 61

WRITTEN AUTHORITY:

A ccording to Exo. 20: 18 - 20 and Heb. 1: 1 God speak through Moses and by His prophets some 600 statutes or laws unto the fathers so they would be able to know right from wrong. As Christians we learn how important every doctrine and belief we have today are based upon God’s truth. One external source of written authority available to us today is the word of God. God’s word is declared or made known in many ways to everyone. Mark wrote more about what Jesus did than what He said, to be more understandable to the Gentiles and Romans. Actions speak louder than words, because faith without works is dead. (Jas. 2: 20) God’s word will never contradict itself, and it cannot be proved wrong.

DEUTERONOMY 30: 10 - 14 If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep His commandments and His statutes which are written in this book of the law, and if thou turn unto the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul. For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off. It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it? Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it? But the word is nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.

1451 Nigh = Near, at hand and ready. Some things are known only to God. (29: 29) But the voice of the Lord thy God, (30: 8) which is written for all to read and hear, (30: 10) if we do them and turn unto Him with all our heart and with all of our soul God said, that His word would not to be hidden or far off from us. Did you ever want something so bad that you would say or do anything for it? When we get that way about God, He will get that way about us.

ROMANS 10: 8 - 9 "But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."

The first step or procedure of divine grace and humble reception of God’s word is to confess the Lord with your lips, and believe in your heart so that God’s word will be close bye. If God’s word is at hand, then how far away is the Lord? Do we keep Him all to ourselves or do we use what God gave us so He can give us more?

ROMANS 10: 10 - 13 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on Him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon Him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

To whom do ye call upon fo answers to your questions and prayers? In Act. 10: 34 - 35 Peter said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: but in every nation he that feareth Him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with Him. Are you ashamed to talk about God and His word? When God sends someone across you path, who do they see and hear? You or He that is at hand?

PHILIPPIANS 2: 9 - 11 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a name which is above every name: that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Jesus is Lord because He glorified God the Father more than anyone. Jesus said it better than anyone, when He said, Why callest thou Me good? There is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into Life, keep the commandments. (Mt. 19: 17) There are some who are called of God that desire a closer relationship with the Father and they bypass Jesus thinking within themselves, that they too are a child of God looking at the tree in the forest and not seeing the whole forest. In Jn. 14: 6 Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by Me. Without Him we can do nothing. (Jn. 15: 5)

LUKE 10: 21 - 24 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank Thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that Thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for it seemed good in Thy sight. All things are delivered to Me of My Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and He to whom the Son will reveal Him. And He turned Him unto His disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see: for I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.

In Jn. 14: 9 - 10 Jesus said, He that hath seen Me hath seen the Father; and the words that I speak unto you I speak not of Myself: If someone does not confess with their mouth and believe with their heart, can these things be revealed unto them?

ACTS 17: 10 - 12 "The brethren
