Enlarge, stretched out; and strengthen thy stakes

Enlarge, stretched out; and strengthen thy stakes(Isaiah 54:2) "Enlarge the place of thy tent, and the curtains of your habitations be stretched out; spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes."
Widened, lengthened and strengthened. It is a call for us to prepare for the blessing that comes. Because growth and multiplication is the characteristic of a healthy church. In a church that believes God. A church that loves God. From a Church carefully scrutinizing the Health of the Doctrine of Christ. Most often it is a healthy church growth.
Eye is not that we have not grown, or not that we're not multiplied, we are talking about growth and multiplication as promised to His Word says that we are in His kingdom. (Isaiah 54:1) "1 Rejoice, O barren, thou that didst not bear; burst into song and shout, you who were never in labor for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, says the Lord. (Isaiah 54:5) "For your Maker is your husband, the LORD of hosts is his name: and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel, God of the whole earth shall be called."
(Gal 4:27) "For it is written: Rejoice, O barren, you who did not bear, break forth and shout, you who are not in travail: for more are the children of the desolate than the one has a husband. "The beauty of the revelation of these passages is that before having Jesus in our hearts we were sterile, but now in Christ are fertile, as confirmed by Jesus Himself speaking to us in this passage. (John 15:5) "I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing."
I am shocked and strikes me as the Bible focuses sterility. Is not there in the Word of God that will last forever sterility. It is against the nature of divinity, a creative God, a fruitful God, a God who can not accept life produces sterility, and analyze some passages in our writing we have in our hands.
1) And it speaks so amazing in the book (Exodus 23:24-26) where he promises that the disease will be pulled and that sterility will disappear: "24 not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do as they do, before utterly overthrow them, and quite break down their images. 25 But the LORD your God, and He will bless your bread and your water, and I will take sickness away from the midst of you. 26 No one shall suffer miscarriage or be barren in your land, and I will fulfill the number of your days. "2) In the book of (Genesis 25:21), the Bible says that there is healing in the sterile: "And Isaac entreated the Lord for his wife because she was barren and accepted the Lord in prayer and Rebekah his wife conceived a son."3) Elisha faces an incredible challenge, the sterility of the land, and the Bible says in (2 Kings 2:19) that men of the city said to Elisha, "And the men of the city said to Elisha Behold, the place where this city is pleasant, as my lord seeth: but the water is naught, and the ground barren. " And the Bible tells how Elisha asks for a pitcher and a pitcher with salt and dates back to the side of the water, the birthplace of the water flow, and at the root of the slope turns salt to the waters heal and infertile land saparezca. And the Bible says that the waters were healed and no longer the land became barren and fertile.4) In (Malachi 3:11) When the Bible refers to the tithe and offering no sterility left untouched, and the same Lord says through the prophet Malachi lower: "I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruit of the earth and your vine or the field, saith the Lord. "5) Ana, sterile, was heard by God and conceived; (1 Sam 2:21) "And the LORD visited Hannah, and she conceived and bore three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the Lord. "6) The wife of Manoah, too sterile, received the consolation of the Most High upon the altar that was offered and was born of her womb barren Samson (Jueses 13:2,3) "2Y was a man of Zorah, of the tribe of Dan , whose name was Manoah, and his wife was barren and had no children. 3A this woman appeared the angel of the LORD, and said, Behold, you are barren and have borne no children, but conceive and bear a son. "7) Zacharias and his wife, both were righteous and blameless before the Lord, but without children, but the angel Gabriel announced to the right of the altar that sterility time Zechariah's wife ended, and the old and barren conceived Juan the Baptist (Luke 1:13) "But the angel said, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard, and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and shalt call his name John."8) And if you look in your Bible you will find that speaking of a barren woman, if you follow his story, you will see that sooner or later, at a particular time, in the time stipulated by the Spirit of God, ends and sterility fruit appears, in women, in men in the land, livestock, and countless passages say no livestock sterility on or about cows and sheep on the Lord hath done with sterility.
Most often when you come to Jesus is to give children, is that you have increased, but if there is no growth or multiplication something wrong. When you come to him, he heals you.
So a church that grows and multiplies is a healthy church. Do not just look at it from the point numeric. We looked at all the areas that a Christian can grow and multiply.Because in many areas there is growth and numerical multiplication but no spiritual growth, no growth in communion, no growth in holiness and integrity.
There are apparently many churches filled with Christians who live for God, but they are a group of spectators who would not be willing to give their lives and not the least of their dreams for the love of their God, there are many who go to church but are not willing to sacrifice his Isaac, are unwilling to deliver what God asks.
Good thing there are men and women here that no matter what God asked, no followers, are willing to give up everything, to carry the cross. They are willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of Jesus Christ our King loved.
A healthy church must grow in all areas. There must be a balance, and balance is achieved only through the sound doctrine of Christ. The church should be filled with the Holy Spirit in order to bear fruit.
A Church on earth without the presence of the Holy Spirit is rather a curse than a blessing, because all outside the Doctrine Doctrine of Christ is False. And if you do not have the Spirit of God, Christian worker, remember that transition is occupying the position of another shall be like a tree planted where it should grow barren one with abundant fruit.
In all things God has given us the expected growth and multiplication.In the parable of the talents (Matthew 25:14-30) "14 For the kingdom of heaven is like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his property. 15 To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his ability, and then went away. 16 He who had received the five talents went and traded with them, and gained five more talents 17 And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two. 18 But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his master's money. 19 After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. 20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, you delivered to me five talents, behold, I have gained five more talents. 21 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant You have been faithful with a few things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 22 He also that had received two talents came and said: Lord, you delivered to me two talents; behold, I have gained two other talents beside them. 23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant You have been faithful with a few things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 24 Then he who had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew you hard man, reaping where you have not sown and gathering where you scattered no 25 I was afraid, and went and hid your talent in the ground; Here you have what is yours. 26 His lord answered and said unto him wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not scattered. 27 Therefore, you should have put my money to the bankers, and at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. 28 Take therefore the talent from him and give him which hath ten talents. 29 For every one that hath shall be given, and will have more, and whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away. 30 And cast the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. "
We are told of the talents. And analyzing this parable we can see that in the Bible refers not only fidelity to be good, to do the right thing, loyalty in the Bible is related to productivity.
Fidelity does not return what he gave you, loyalty is multiplying.
Fidelity is growing. What did the Lord wicked and lazy servant and useless. This is more serious than we think.
Because we read this, and Jesus Christ breaks the concept of loyalty we have.
When the Lord gives us five and five deliveries but he says well, good and faithful servant. With a few things.
THAT NO MULTIPLIED the Lord called him unfaithful. Not because he had stolen, because I buried it back then, but the Lord called infidel and sentence. Some will say it back but if it is to be faithful.
NO THAT'S NOT BE FAITHFUL, is to be unfaithful.
That what we're talking delicate, if Jehovah God called you through your beloved Son know that Jehovah God has an expectation that you can not ignore and what is that expectation?
You bring fruit, to multiply the talents, you grow, you gain another, you work for the Lord God, in the kingdom of Christ to obey the order.(1 Peter 2:9-10) "9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light; 10 ye who were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. "That surprise will be those who for 30 years, 10 years and attended his church were no longer part of the statistic, nominal members, who were taken into account only to keep accounts.
But you never saw them engaged with Jehovah God, never saw them growing, they never saw a new level, a new aspiration, never saw them fruit.
That surprise will be like the servant who buried the talent and believed that tithing will attend and get to heaven.God expects more. Jehovah God expects more. I do not know if you want to be part of Strive Lengthening and Widening. I do not know if you want to multiply you, if you want to be a father, if you want to be a mother. No but I can not, as I can not challenge them to church in this hour we become soul winners, he does not invite anyone to church.
Your whole family you know who you are? Do all your friends? Because they believe the Lord God in this hour.
How wrong we are to think that to be good, to bring good face, face to put good people get to heaven, it will not be like that, the sky got multiplying and growing the talents God gave us, hear Victor's brother delicate what you're saying, not be scaring us so we can bring one next Sunday. NOO I'm not scared I'm remembering that if you want to keep sterile or sterile LORD God make one day you will pass the bill.
1. And I will say where I gave you the talent,2. fertility where I gave you, you did with what I gave you?3. A few win?4. What did you do with the sound doctrine of Christ?5. What did you do with the good news?6. Show me where are your children have not seen?
Jesus is not looking for a good face, the looks productivity.
Because we can be 20 years in the church I am faithful saying, because I'm attending. But the desire of the Lord God is not to be there without any fruit as police lying trancando everyone, the desire of Jehovah God is to be like a beacon, an inspiration to many, that they may see the light of Christ.
Fidelity is not that for 30 years go to church, faithfulness is being productive. In Jehovah God are fertile. In Jehovah God all goes sterility disease. The church in Christ Jesus must mobilize to win souls, not normal to be the same with them, we are undertaking programs and projects to reach many.
(Romans 10:17) "Faith comes by hearing. And hearing by the word of God. "
(Genesis 12: 2,3) "I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, and you will be blessed. Bless those who bless you and curse, curse, and be blessed in you all the families of the earth "
(Matthew 28: 18-20) "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, until the end of the world "
I do not know if your heart has been willing at this time, but the time to reach many. We have heard that the Lord God has to say. But is healthy at this time, is free from sterility, we must multiply and grow.
