Pastor Shane Vaughn Preaches LIVE - Feast of Firstfruit PART 2 "Fear Not Little Flock" - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BC3IhlChGnI Transcript: (00:00) so I preached on this Friday night and I've not been able to get this scripture out of my spirit every day I have read this scripture over and over and over and I didn't know why but I knew tonight the Lord said I want you to preach on this verse and I said well Lord I've already preached on it he said yeah but you missed the meaning of it and I said well okay we're going to preach it again amen Luke 12:32 fear not little flock for it is the Father's good pleasure to give you the government now how many in this room has ever lived (00:49) in a kingdom anybody I've never lived in a kingdom do you know why you and I and sister Myers especially and I'm not picking on her tonight but do you know why you weren't the first one that had a problem with my kingdom message do you know why we cannot get the kingdom message because we don't know what a kingdom is right that's right we've never lived in a kingdom we don't understand what a kingdom is so the truth is the kingdom is just a Biblical word for government right how many knows that the Queen of England will be (01:28) passing from this life shortly and then Charles I assume will Ascend to the throne I wish it was William but Charles is going to sit there a day or two it looks like and um he's going to ascend to the throne and he's going to become the king over a kingdom hold on I'm going to be almost we going to read one more verse well how many knows that Charles or Queen Elizabeth by herself doesn't actually govern right right they don't govern they don't wake up every day trying to figure out how to feed the poor they don't wake up every day trying (02:06) to figure out how to provide housing and how to prepare for battle they don't do any of that right and yet they are the head of the government because they are not there to govern right they are there to rule amen the government is there to govern you ever heard the king call them her ministers she'll say my ministers you have a Minister of Housing a minister of Agriculture a minister of trade these are ministers that govern her kingdom I hope you're getting the message here the Bible says that the kingdom of (02:53) God will not be governed by Christ but that the government will be given to the Saints Hallelujah that you and I will be doing and you know you talk about work but my Lord think about this in this local church brother sister Kendrick Karen and myself are pretty much the government of this church we're the apostles the prophets the pastors we're the government of this church do you think we begrudge a moment of what we're doing we're working in the Kingdom right this is work but it is that kind of work that you can't explain (03:33) the joy of it knowing that I'm here tonight ministering life to you I'm governing that's right you understand when I'm teaching you the kingdom law I'm governing why somebody said well I'm only Let Jesus teach me well he don't set it up that way he said I gave you pastors prophets evangelists to do the government what did he say it's for For the Working of the government the church has a government government the kingdom has a government and this is what we this is why we you know sister Pat told me the same thing going out of church (04:06) Friday night she said my problem with the kingdom message not in those words but she said I just have a problem having a position I don't think why would I want to have a position over anybody and that's we've all had that thought what does that mean a position it I have a position I'm I'm one of your Shepherds does that make me better than anybody in this room no no it just gives me a duty to govern in the kingdom of God ladies and gentlemen that same government is coming to every one of you when you're going to go throughout the (04:44) whole nations of the world you'll travel at the speed of thought you'll be in one place and and and yua will send you another place and you will travel you'll be in that new body there'll be no distance and time you'll be in these new glorified bodies and you will govern in the Kingdom you will be in China because these will all still be nations in the COV in the government of God oh Hallelujah so here's what the father or what Yeshua said in this verse that really touched me this week he said fear not little (05:19) flock oh hallelujah hallelujah I want to preach to you tonight fear not little flock you may be seated fear not little flock go with me to 2 Corinthians chapter 4 and verse n and the Lord said to tell you tonight that this is the message of the hour for everyone in this building yes amen 2 Corinthians 4 and8 let's start there but we are troubled on every side but we're not d stressed we are perplexed but we are not in despair verse number nine we are persecuted but we are (06:23) not forsaken we are cast down but we're not destroyed always bearing about in the body in our body which is the body of Christ the dying of the Lord Jesus that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in the body ladies and gentlemen what is the body of Christ right here notice what he said in that verse why are we persecuted he said yes we're persecuted yes but we're not destroyed we're not forsaken because the reason we're persecuted is we are learning in the body how to die like Jesus yes that's right and at the same (07:31) time we are learning how to live like Jesus he said oh sure we've got sickness in our bodies sure we're troubled on every side but he said fear not little flock because it's got a purpose that the world don't have all of your persecution is to teach you the body how to die and how to live praise God that the life of yua might be made manifest what does that mean might be revealed in every one of us that's right when yua said those words fear not little flock this week all week long I traveled I traveled yesterday to Baton Rouge and (08:24) all the way in the vehicle I literally felt those words from the Lord fear not little flock do you know why it's a little flock brother Barnett because few there be that's going to find this way many are going to get saved but few there be that's going to get in the flock right what do the Flock do they follow the shepherd wherever he goes who is the shepherd the word of God they follow it wherever it goes few there be that can do that many can be saved but they cannot be in the little flock many are called many are saved but only a few (09:05) are going to be chosen what is the word church mean called out many are in the church but few of those are going to be in that little flock that's chosen why because Paul just told you if you're going to be in the little flock you must learn that you are persecuted and you're okay with it amen you are cashed down every day and you're okay with it because no matter how far Satan cast you down he cannot cast you out that's right no matter how much he persecutes you he cannot finish you right that's right now why do (09:55) brother van how do everybody in this room tonight we all come from different backgrounds some of you in this room you have different home lives than I have some of you have more money in your bank account than I do some have less some of you in this room you come from different social economic backgrounds you come from different families upper class lower class no class and go class you've come from every type of family a broken home and a home that's not broken everyone here is different but there's not one of you in this room (10:30) that doesn't share this experience with every one of us that in this life you shall have trouble right yes yes that's right everyone in this building has trouble on every hand when you leave this place tonight Monday morning rolls around and all of a sudden the phone begins to ring all of a sudden it's time for more doctor's appointments all of a sudden the bills that you paid the last month is Du again and you don't know how that happens every single month but but you you You' deal with family trouble marriage trouble there's always trouble (11:10) you're persecuted the Bible said the job of Satan is to wear down the Saints why because we are in a wrestling match brother John whenever we come to Christ that's why when people say that Jesus is their rest I don't know what Jesus they found that's right because before I came to Jesus I didn't wrestle against flesh and blood I just submitted to flesh right that's right oh when I came to Jesus I found rest not me I found War cuz I wasn't in a war before then Satan said do it I did it Satan said do it I did it but all of (12:00) a sudden now when I come to Jesus and Satan says do it and I go to do it something starts Waring in my mind the infilling of the Holy Spirit begins to mess with my head and tell me that doesn't please God now I'm in a war this war is something you'll deal with on a daily basis if you're being chosen by God for the first harvest and the first resurrection but when Jesus said this these words fear not little flock this week I felt like I was literally in front of him feeling his genuine love for us hallelujah I literally felt the (12:43) Embrace of yua the Messiah I felt the fear not I felt it in my spirit he said tell my people don't tell them the battle's not coming that's right don't lie to them and tell them if they give the church $1,000 all their financial troubles go away don't lie to them and tell them if they live for me life is going to be wonderful don't lie to them that's right that's right am you tell them that they fixing an enter War like they've never known before that's right you tell them your spouses will turn against you the Bible yua said (13:25) don't think I came to bring peace I came to bring War did you know Jesus said that he said I came to separate the mothers from their sons I came to separate churches from their denominations I come to separate people from their Traditions I didn't come into your life to give you happy clappy I came to turn everybody against you so that I can choose you for something I've got in mind for you he said don't lie to him he said but I want you to give them something I want you to tell them fear not because even though they are pressed (14:08) down on every side sister Bonnie even though you're going to be hated of all men for this message sake Hallelujah that's right amen you're going to be I've dealt with it I've been hated people hate me and don't know why they hate me they don't they you ask them why do you hate brother V I don't know but I just hate him did he do anything to you well now it ain't what he did to me well what did he do he ain't done nothing then why do you hating truth cuz I told him the truth right Paul said have I become your enemy (14:44) because I told you the truth when you come to truth you are signing up to be an enemy to everybody your life is a testimony against the lies of this world you're going to be persecuted on every side but I love what Paul said he said you're going to be pressed down has anybody ever been to a boxing game a wrestling match you ever seen what happens when you're about to count that man out what do you have to do you have to press him down that's boxing not wrestling what is it no it's wrestling you got to when you (15:23) go wrestling you got to hold that shoulder to the mat you got to do what somebody has got to tap out or time out one of the two listen to me carefully there's no shame in getting pressed down to the mat there's only a shame when your behind don't get back up from the mat ah you're going to be pressed down every day he's going to press you H every day you're going to feel like tapping out oh but fear not yes every day that shoulder going to hit the m and you're going to be like but God I'm walking in truth I've done (16:05) everything you told me to do oh but the moment you tell him that I want you to remember these words press down but never knocked out I may be pressed down but I am coming back Daddy preached about it tonight I got to go a little bit further I'm not out yet [Applause] but how do we do that it's brother V that preaches good on Sunday night that preaches good when all of the children of Zion are in one building that preaches good when the spirit is moving and we feel what you're saying but what about Thursday when you're ignoring (16:52) everybody's phone calls and we can't get a hold of you huh what about then whenever we can't find you what how do we then not get pressed out and pushed out I'm going to give you the secret to never giving up it's what yua told them in that same verse fear not little flock how not because you won't have a reason to fear but because right when you're about to time out on the mat when the clock's about to strike midnight and that River Daddy was talking about is about to take you over he said I'm going to give you what you (17:40) need to remember to get your butt back up he said fear not that's right and remember the reward that's waiting for you it is the Father's good pleasure to give that little flock his government yes that's right yes when Satan gives you a reason to give up I promise you I've got a better reason not to it's the father's good pleasure to give me his government if I won't tap out thank you Lord thank you Lord how do we not give up remember what the father is begging you to take from him the government upon his shoulders woo you (18:34) better hear this oh Satan's offering you a lie that you can't survive but here's the father saying if you will I will make you an overcomer I will let you sit in my Throne H and in my government uh over the nations of the world don't give up it's my good pleasure to give you something thank you I want you to think about this the church teaches we're all saved the church teaches that the end result is what sister Myers was talking about let's all go to heaven listen ladies and gentlemen if I've already got that and (19:16) Satan pushes my shoulder down I'm going to let that dude count as long as he wants to I have no reason to get back up amen that's right that's right I'm going to heaven yeah I'm saved go ahead Satan knock me out of church for 2 years and I'll never go back I'm saved right what's there why why do I get back up yeah that's right why do I keep overcoming your lies I'm saved right this is the most dangerous message the church has ever preached it's preached in every Church in America and the world it's an easy Grace Gospel it (19:54) is a gospel that don't require you to get up it's a gospel that lets you tap out it's a gospel that lets you look back it lets you put your hand to the plow and look back but the Gospel of Jesus Christ says if any man puts his hand to this plow and looks back he's not worthy of this government that's right that's right he didn't say nothing about you wasn't worthy of Heaven he said you wasn't worthy of the chosen people the government of God listen to me right when you feel like giving up you better remember the father has offered you more (20:35) than Heaven he's offered you the throne do you understand that do you comprehend what the throne is amen do you know what yua said you know how yua climbed Mount Calvary brother Vonnie did it because he's God no he didn't let me tell you why he climbed Mount Calvary because his father promised him I'm going to give you the nations of the world to rule and to Reign and then as soon as God told him that Satan calls him up to the Mount of Temptation that's right and do you know what Satan promised yua the exact same (21:26) thing brother V well Jesus knew not to listen to Satan because Satan couldn't have done that oh go read your Bible again Satan says they were given to me and I can give them to whomever I want to give them to that's right y'all better what I'm going to teach you you better get so deep right now there stood the second Adam before the same serpent yes that's right prach it with the same two trees amen rebellion and obedience and there stands the second Adam here comes the snake he's crawled into this garden and he comes up to the (22:05) Garden of Temptation and there stands Adam and Adam he says if you will just give up this illusion that you're going to rule and Reign if you'll give up this dream from your father he don't even have these kingdoms I've got them they belong to me and I'll give them all to you brother V Satan couldn't do it really go read the book of Ezekiel who did Yahweh make the anointed cherub over the whole earth Satan yes he gave him go watch my sermon called before the beginning Satan has been God of this world he was the (22:44) governor of this Earth this is his Earth for a time being it's on lease he's got a six day lease can I get an amen he's got a six day lease 6,000 lease on this planet because it's going to take that long for God to find a few chosen people that will qualify to take it over from him Hallelujah why six days because we've had 6 billion people that's lived on planet Earth and maybe 6,000 maybe 6 million have qualified for that great day when yua shall return and set up his government here on Earth H when he goes to Buckingham Palace and the queen lays (23:34) her crown at the King of Kings and the Lord of lords H this is something we're fighting for I've been cast down but I'm never going to be cast out because I remember Hallelujah that it's the father's good pleasure not to give did say nothing about heaven but to give you the government amen every time you see the word Kingdom in your Bible get rid of it and replace it with what it means government yes and then know what government means what is the government of Waveland Mississippi made up of men and women what do they do serve the (24:17) citizens what do they do provide the vision of the mayor they bring his vision to pass we are the Dream Team Yahweh has a dream of a restored Planet a planet of paradise and you're the team that he's putting together to bring his dream to pass in the millennial Reign and it is the Father's good pleasure if you've not read my book The Dream Team you've missed out 300 pages of Truth the only way you won't give up on God is if you truly understand what he's promised you now I'm going to say that again people can't back slide when they (24:59) come to this message there's no more backsliding that's right kindergarteners backslide Sons don't backslide amen there comes a point in your walk with God where you forget how to backslide it ain't even in you no more why because you understand you're working for the master and you're getting ready for the government that is coming to planet Earth it's the father's good pleasure he's hoping that you'll accept his offer for you know what yua said and I'm about to close yua said these words he said if you if you'll suffer (25:37) with me just a few days I'm going to give you this promise he never said I'm going to take you and fly you away anywhere that's right but he said I will let you sit with me amen right in my father's government right Throne what is a throne the symbol of government rule y'all get these literal Thrones out of your head the queen never sits on her throne except to open Parliament but yet she always sits on the throne why the throne is the symbol of government when you see the throne in the word of God Colonel that's referring (26:20) to the government yes that you've been invited to be a part of Amen how y'all like them comfortable chairs back there huh you've been invited to be part of something and if you don't remember it you're going to give up that's right if you don't remember it you're going to let him press you all the way down I want to finish up with what yua said before we close one final thing that he said in Luke 1232 let's go back there real quick thank you Father Luke 12:32 so how this next verse never made sense to me because the Communist and the (27:15) Socialist use this verse to say that we should all live in some commune and have everything equal and nobody should have any more than the other that's socialism that's democ rats and uh we don't believe in their gospel we don't believe in their Mantra we believe every man gets what he works for that's way God is going to set it up you're going to get what you work for let me tell you something the reason I'm against the spirit behind the Democratic party is because they are anti-bible there's no such thing as we (27:51) are all equal before God the Bible said that some will get 30-fold some will get 64 so how is that equal you got to get all that Democratic stuff out of your mind ain't going to be no democracy in the kingdom of God won't be no voting it's going to be a command from headquarters that's all and everybody's going to do it Hallelujah so how do we keep the kingdom in Focus let's read ver verse 33 he said sell all you have and give arms provide yourself bags which wax not old a treasure in the heavens that faileth not where no Thief approacheth (28:37) neither man corrup for where your treasure is there will your heart be also let your loins be gerded about and your lights burning Hallelujah woo you remember that sermon about the oil and the lamp he said let you let you now so let's start with why did he say sell everything you got he was teaching them a lesson you know what he was telling them fear not you're so worried about this life fear not just get your focus off of this life for the fathers want to give you the government of a coming Kingdom forget what your problems are (29:24) what he's telling them what he meant when he said go sell all you got he wasn't tell him to go sell what he was saying forget about it yes that's right forget about this life forget about your trouble fear not how do we not fear when we know that the father wants to give us the government let's read the next verse let your loins be girded about and your lights burning and ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord when he will return from the wedding that when he cometh and knocketh they may open unto (30:07) him immediately blessed are those servants whom the Lord when he comes shall find them counting the Omar yes hallelujah what do you think watching is referring to we're counting the Omar today's eight of 50 we're counting them listen to what he said there I say unto you that he shall guard himself and make them to sit down to meet and will come forth and serve them and it shall come in the second watch or in the Third Watch and find them so blessed are those servants Lord there's going to be a lot of servants that are (30:47) going to be blessed but there are some servants that are going to be so [Music] blessed let's read that again read that vers 38 and the Third Watch and he finds them watching so blessed are those servants all the servants are going to be blessed but these are going to be so [Music] blessed and this know that if the Goodman of the house had known what hour the thief was coming he would have watched and not have suffered his house to be broken through be ye therefore ready also for the son of man is coming at an hour when you think not but notice what (31:41) he said in the another verse I've read to you but he said you're not like these servants that are not watching you won't be surprised with the Lord's coming he said sell everything you've got and focus on what the father is promising you and closing third one let's go to Luke chapter 19 praise God hour and I can feel I'm a little tired tonight so I apologize not giving you my best this evening but the word of God is always good amen let's go to verse 19 our chapter 19 I'm sorry of the Book of Luke and I want to show you a parable (32:23) that's going to help you get the kingdom message if you ever get this parable you will never be confused again about what we preach here and what we believe let's begin at verse 12 we're going to read it verse by verse everyone follow he said therefore a certain noble man went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return everyone look up let's interpret the parable the first first verse he said there was a certain nobl man does anybody know who the noble man is yua the Messiah amen so let's read it (33:08) what he was saying and yua the Messiah is going to go into a far country do you know where the far country is heaven his father's presence okay and he when he gets to that far country what's he going to receive for himself govern a government and once he's been given that Authority what's he going to do then return right but listen to the rest and so this noble man called 10 servants somebody say called called what is the church okay follow this closely so before before he left and went to that far country he built a (34:05) church W now why did he call them 10 servants because you've got how many virgins 10 virgins how many coins was in the The Lost coins 10 come on SOL this is all the church right so he called The Church and gave to the church 10 lbs let me interpret he gave the church the gift every single one of them of the Holy Spirit when he left what did he say he said I will come back and endue you with power that was the 10 pounds that he was going to give the church when he went to a far country stay with me and you'll never be the same (34:58) and then he called those 10 gave them 10 pounds what did he say to them now relax till I get back focus focus watch work build add to your faith what I gave you work and add to what I gave you oh you better go read what Paul said add to your Faith knowledge add to knowledge virtue add wisdom understand he said you the church I'm not calling you to get saved what did he say there I'm calling you to get started that's the message I preach that's it he said come he called him now he said it's time for you to go to work (35:48) now the church I've been a part of all my life and we don't believe in going to work we believe going to heaven yeah that's right he said now listen carefully if you get what I'm teaching you now now the confusion will never come back to your mind listen now verse 14 but his citizens hated him and they sent a message after he left to the church now notice what this is not the ones he called this is you got to stay with me this is going to get deep this is not the 10 servants that hated him this is the citizens that the 10 (36:25) servants were governing over right right they sent a message to those pastors and here's what they said we will not have this man tell us what to do we'll let him save us we'll let him heal our sick we'll let him deliver demonic people we'll let him bless us financially but you need to deliver a message to your God we will never obey him right that's right that's right the church is filled with these citizens filled with these citizens they said we love the Lord he's our Lord we love him and we stand there and we see like car (37:14) mic for 10 hours we receive oh give me a touch oh but then somebody like brother V comes to preach and tells you how you got to live and you say oh way you need to tell them we ain't having none of that yeah yeah you're not going to tell me what I can and can't eat what I can and can't do you're not going to tell me what gods I can celebrate holiday what I can't no no no you can love me but you can't rule over me right sounds like some women I know you ever heard of a mic [Music] drop you can provide for me honey but I (37:59) ain't going to I ain't going to do your clothes well then you're not a woman you're a right if you won't serve your husband you ain't got no business having a husband right ain't nobody I ain't going to serve nobody you're a jezebel if you don't learn to serve you need to quit speaking in tongues amen cuz you bunch of babbling going on until you learn to serve one another the husband serves by protecting by providing the husband serves by making sure you're taken care of making sure that nobody can harm you you're (38:40) protected that's his he serves you every day and then for you to disrespect him and not want to serve him that's what brother v i I don't understand what you're getting at that's because you don't have the Holy Ghost I'm trying to tell you how the church does her husband that's right [Music] I'm here to get a prophetic word how about this word quit shacking up yeah oh and nobody going to tell me what to do see yeah that's right they said go tell your lord we love him but he ain't reigning over us y'all this is so deep right now if (39:19) you would get this you'd get that Spirit out of you completely serving is the only proof that you really have the Holy Ghost the servant he will turn you into somebody how many's ever heard somebody say I'm not going to be walked on then you don't have the Holy Ghost that's what he helps you to do get walked on Amen daddy how many times you and Mama been walked on how many people owe y'all money today right how many times youve been walked on and not retaliate brother Von they going to respect me who are you why do you deserve (40:02) respect do you think you're worthy of respect all the glory goes to him amen and we let people walk all over us because remember why we're being persecuted we're learning how to die like Christ so that when we speak he speaks through us and things happen everybody wants the power without the persecution it is the persecution that creates the power yes until you have been lied on and still love the person you can't preach this message oh Hallelujah until they've said things about you that you know is not true and you don't care if anybody (40:48) else knows it or not you just leave it in the hands of the Lord you ain't learned to die yet the holy spirit's working in this room right now that's right Lord tell the Lord I love him but first I ain't going to pay him my tithe don't tell me about my money leave my money alone I ain't coming on every no see he can bless me but he can't tell me what to do right right if you're in this room tonight and you have that Spirit on you you need to repent before God right and you tell him not only can you Reign Over (41:26) Me but I'll lay in this floor if that's what you want me to do I'll do whatever you tell me to do because I want to serve you [Music] Hallelujah I always know when he steps in on the scene Hallelujah sh tell this man we won't let him rain over us but we'll sure go to his church and love on him we'll go to a worship conference and learn how to worship but we're not keeping no Sabbath that messes our schedule up we're not keeping no holy days the neighbors will think we strange that's right because you're not dead yet when (42:20) you die good you live good when you die good you live good you live like Christ when you die like Christ how many in this room there's

Christ brother V my Bible don't say that yes it does when he returns and no that didn't happen in ad70 Mr prist I love you but he has not returned in physical form okay having received the kingdom when does he (43:06) receive the kingdom when he returns he don't have it yet he's got the church not the kingdom that's right then he commanded the church to be resurrected to whom he had given the Holy Ghost that he might know how much every man had added to his salvation wow wow hallelujah what do you think the Judgment Day is for it ain't about your salvation did you occupy till I come did you add knowledge and understanding did you add obedience to that faith did you add to your walk with god did you add faithfulness he said oh come here (44:05) talking about you want to be saved the Judgment ain't about that I'm coming just to find out if you believe the lie or if you woke up to the truth hallelujah and then he calls them he calls the church notice who he didn't call he's not calling the citizens here he's calling the church that's right judgment begins where we get judged first that's right listen to what he said in verse 16 then came the first the first harvest the first fruits and here's what the first fruit people said Lord that Holy Ghost you gave (44:52) me I've learned obedience I've learned your Commandments I've added to knowledge and virtue and patience and

did you know your Bible even said this yes been reading it all your life life he said those that didn't want to just be saved and just get the Holy Ghost those that were willing to lay it all down

nobody wants these cities right we want to go to heaven that's right that's right that's right Amen brother nobody wants the responsibility nobody wants the Glorious duty of changing all I'll show you in the book of Isaiah the Bible said that you the government would go touch the water and the waters will all be purified by your touch yes that's right go read your Bible I'll show you in the coming kingdom of God where the Bible says that the desert is going to start (47:38) blossoming with roses oh my God the whole Earth's going to be changed through your ministry yes Hallelujah that you don't even want oh Lord God's never offered you Heaven he offered you a job that's right he said I'll let you sit with me in my Throne all my life I never heard nobody tell me what the throne was why I want the throne to not somebody said you want to rule over people no I want to serve people what do you think a rule the Bible said he that ruleth shall be servant of all do y'all think brother Kendrick (48:20) rules over anybody what does he do he serves right what do you think we do we ser serve you we're not ruling over this body we're serving You by feeding your truth God and the father has told me if I'll be faithful in serving 10 little people that one day I'll have so many cities because he's found me to be faithful yes and you can't even be faithful in going to church but you want to rule a city that's the important you ever heard the old preachers the old Christians talk about just be faithful you got sick of hearing it well just come on and be (49:03) faithful well what does that have to do with my salvation nothing right and that's the problem that's all you want is salvation right but the good servants are the faithful ones they keep their word they do what they say they're going to do they show up they they water them flowers out there when nobody's watching don't nobody in this church know you water these flowers hours but God does thank you Lord that's right just watering flowers you know what the carinal mind says why ain't nobody else doing it you ought to be saying I hope nobody else (49:37) does it Hallelujah I want this reward I want this faithfulness shal my grandmother when I told her I was called to preach do you know what she did I'll never forget it she's still alive she'll tell you this to this day she said you called to preach son she said I'm going to add you to the church cleaning committee every Saturday she put me on the list to go vacuum that big old monstrous Church she had that's what she thought Ministry was yes that's right yes that's right but I want to preach yeah no you need to reach for (50:18) that vacuum cleaner and learn to be faithful right if you said you going to clean this church and you don't do it there's a La in your character get it right why God is calling us to shape up yes be faithful yes it's hard for me to even accept invitations for Professor Toto to go speak out of town because I want to be so faithful to this body it's difficult for me because I want to be faithful and yet I know God's also called me to help reach America so I'm having to but my point is we've got to learn the beauty (50:58) of faithfulness that's right that's right do you know every week do you know I know there's some of you in this room that are tithers I'm a tither every one of you are tithers most of you do you know that God don't need one penny of anybody in this room but he does need to give you a [Music] test to see what you're going to do with the finances in the Kingdom of those 10 cities is you going to be over don't y'all know there's going to be money in the coming kingdom of God did you not know that what do you think that (51:34) scripture the wealth of the wicked what do you think that's talking about the Gentile nations are going to pay taxes to Jesus Christ it's the time Hallelujah these are things people don't understand who's going to finance the kingdom of God during the millennial Reign go read your Bible do you know what he's going to do there's a scripture in Isaiah that says a third of the oceans he's going to dry them up you know why there's so much gold and silver under the oceans that it's going to be brought up my how do you think we get (52:11) streets listen my god listen when you get to understanding what God's got in mind you'll quit trying to be saved and you'll go to work you'll be getting ready for this position that God's got for you sister Pat 10 cities let's finish up with this little Parable verse number where are we at what verse are we in 18 18 and then came the Second Harvest now remember there's three Harvest we're the first harvest we came with 10 pounds here comes the second Resurrection saying Lord you gave me five what you gave me I (52:54) added five PBS to it and notice what happens he don't go to hell no no no the Lord says now I'm going to put you over five cities not 10 that's why them lying preachers called satanic preachers stand in God's pulpit and tell you there's no Works involved and you believe that lie why because Satan don't want you governing over his territory that's right is his land yeah he's invested his whole existence in in this world right and you're training to take it over well don't you think he would get up in there and preach so you (53:38) won't be training for it yes that's right let me give you an example the Sabbath day why do I harp on it people get sick of hearing about it you know why because in the Millennium the book of Isaiah says that from one Sabbath to the next Sabbath everyone will worship him on the Sabbath day so who's going to teach him to do it if you've been preaching it was done away with amen because we don't have a millennium mentality we don't get it let's go to the next servant verse 19 verse 20 and then another church member came saying Lord (54:20) behold I've kept that good holy ghost that you gave me I put it in a napkin I didn't really do nothing to get ready I didn't really add nothing to it but I kept that's good Holy Ghost verse 22 and yua said unto that church member out of your own mouth I'm going to judge you listen what he calls him thou w wied servant he's still a servant he's still a church member fill with the Holy Ghost what I'm teaching you you're not going to hear this listen carefully he said but you now the word there really is not a good (55:14) word Wicked it should be Lawless what is wicked is breaking the law you Lawless servant that believed there was no Works involved right right you you Lawless servant that's right you had the Holy Ghost thou knowest that I was an auster man taken up that I laid not down in reaping what I did not sow wherefore then givest not thou my money to the bank that at my coming I might have required my own with Usery and he said unto them that stood by take from him what I gave him what did he give him a promise to the Throne take the promise (55:58) of the throne and give it to that one that worked for it wow yes and yet if you say the work the word works in the church they will cast you out that's right what did josua say what was those 10 pounds the promise to inherit the throne which is the infilling of the Holy Spirit to be able to do it he said take that promise from him and go give to that one that was faithful to me more responsibility give him his now there is your 30 minutes of silence in heaven right when you get to the judgment and you find out that it wasn't about being (56:44) saved and what you could have been doing for the Lord right amen that's right I'm trying to hurry Hallelujah glory to God is anybody getting it oh yeah what verse are we in what is it no we in uh 24 44 24 24 no what what what chapter 19 and 25 25 and they said unto him Lord that man that worked for you's already got 10 pounds he said but I say unto you that unto everyone which haath shall be given more and from him that didn't add to to his salvation even that which he hath will be taken away from (57:49) him but those mine enemies which would which would not that I would Reign Over them them bring them all here and kill every one of them yes now that's not the church this is the citizens that's right even the wicked servant wasn't in that number that says kill them all not the wicked servant he was still saved right that's the problem saved as by fire we don't understand that just because what he had was taken away doesn't mean he won't be saved but he won't be in the throne that's right but there's another group of (58:31) people those citizens that wouldn't obey him he said take them destroy them all you notice what he called them people how many's ever heard me say something that offended you one of the things that I say that offends people is whenever I say that we're not all equal with God and that God has enemies that's right what did God just call rebellious people my enemies and I'm going to kill my enemies that's right that's right tonight if you're rebellious toward God you're the enemy of God you're not the friend of God (59:09) that's right but I'm proud to say tonight there are some people in this room that are the friends of God I believe that tonight I believe brother Barnett is a friend of God I believe there's some of you in this room that are friends of God you know why because it's real simple what is a friend do they care there's people here that care about God that's right you care about what he likes you care about what he loves what he don't like whenever y'all was preparing for sister Karen's birthday you wanted to know her favorite (59:43) color you wanted to know our favorite flower you know why you cared you were her friend amen until you get to a place in your walk with God where you care about God enough to say what's your favorite food for me to eat Lord what's your favorite clothes for me to wear what's your favorite you like me to come to your house I'll come I care when the world seems cold and your friends seem true there is someone who cares for you he'll come (1:00:51) down from the sky brush the tears from your eye you're his child and he cares for you oh he's someone to care he's someone to share all your troubles like no other can do I forgot come down from the sky brush the tears from your eyes you're his child and he came (1:01:57) for you

Summary

Feast of Firstfruit Part 2 — “Fear Not Little Flock” is centered on Luke 12:32. Vaughn interprets Yeshua's promise to the “little flock” as a promise of participation in God's future government. The sermon argues that believers should endure persecution and remain faithful because their calling involves more than salvation: Vaughn believes they are being trained for future service and authority in the Millennial Kingdom. Pastor Shane Vaughn Preaches LI… The sermon then moves from Luke 12 to the parable in Luke 19:12–27, which Vaughn uses to explain differing rewards. The servants who increase what they receive are rewarded with authority over cities; Vaughn interprets this as a picture of firstfruits believers developing faithfulness, obedience, knowledge, and character in preparation for future government. Pastor Shane Vaughn Preaches LI… Pastor Shane Vaughn Preaches LI… The central exhortation is therefore “Fear not.” In Vaughn's framework, the little flock should not abandon its calling when persecuted or “pressed down,” because faithfulness under present pressure prepares it for the governmental responsibility he believes the Father has promised.

Core doctrine

Luke 12:32 - Vaughn teaches that Yahshua's "Little Flock" is a specially called firstfruits company that must endure persecution, overcome, and remain faithful rather that "Tap Out", he interprets the Father's promise to give them the kingdom as a promise of future governmental authority, with present faithfulness and obedience prepating them to serve and govern with Messiah in the coming kingdom.
