I Take Care of My Own

Eagle Mountain International Church • June 1, 2022

Pastor George Pearsons – Sunday, May 22, 2022

A. The News Has Been Relentless

  1. “The supply chain bottlenecks around the world have caused record shortages of many products that American consumers are used to having readily available.
    That includes food, household goods, electronics, automobiles—supplies of every kind, including baby formula. Prices are increasing on goods and services, including gas at the pump. Experts have warned that problems will likely get worse before they get better.”
  2. Three questions:
  3. How many are faithful tithers?
  4. How many are generous sowers?
  5. How many have a covenant of prosperity with God?
  6. Then, you are exempt from:
  7. Supply chain disruptions.
  8. Severe shortages.
  9. Extreme scarcity.
  10. We may be in this world, but we are not of it.
  11. We are not subject to, nor do we live under the dominion, rule, control, or influence of whichever way the economy is going.
  12. We are set apart from the world’s system.
  13. We don’t just survive in times like these—we thrive.
  14. While praying over the current economic conditions, the Lord spoke a very clearword to my heart for you. He said…

“I TAKE CARE OF MY OWN.”

B. Psalm 37:18-19—God Will Take Good Care of Us in Tough Times

  1. Verses 18-19 (NLT) “Day by day the Lord takes care of the innocent, and they will receive an inheritance that lasts forever. They will not be disgraced in hard times; even in famine they will have more than enough.”
  2. Isaiah 46:4 (GNT) “I am your God and I will take care of you until you are old and
    your hair is gray. I made you and will care for you; I will give you help and rescue you.”
  3. Psalms 121:5-8 (NLT) “The Lord himself watches over you! The Lord stands beside you as your protective shade. The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon at night. The Lord keeps you from all harm and watches over your life. The Lord keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever.”

“THE LORD TAKES CARE OF ME IN SPITE OF THE ECONOMY.”

C. Psalm 100:3—We Belong to Him

  1. Verse 3 (GNT) “Acknowledge that the Lord is God. He made us, and we belong to him; we are his people, we are his flock.”
  2. Psalm 73:23-24 (NLT) “Yet I still belong to you; you hold my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, leading me to a glorious destiny.”
  3. Isaiah 43:1-3 (NLT) “Do not be afraid, for I have ransomed you. I have called you by name; you are mine. When you go through deep waters, I will be with you.
    When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you. For I am the Lord, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.”
  4. Isaiah 43:1-3 (MSG) “Don’t be afraid, I’ve redeemed you. I’ve called your name. You’re mine. When you’re in over your head, I’ll be there with you. When you’re in rough waters, you will not go down. When you’re between a rock and a hard place, it won’t be a dead end—because I am God, your personal God, The Holy of Israel, your Savior. I paid a huge price for you.”
  5. Psalm 94:14 (GNT) “The Lord will not abandon his people; he will not desert those who belong to him.”

“I BELONG TO GOD. HE CALLS ME BY NAME. I AM HIS. HE WILL NEVER ABANDON ME.”

D. Deuteronomy 28—We are Redeemed from the Curse of Lack

  1. Galatians 3:13-14 “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is everyone that hangeth on a tree: that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.”
  2. Redeemed (GK) = ransomed, bought back, rescued from loss
  3. Deuteronomy 28:15-68—The Curse of the Law
  4. Verse 38 (NLT) “You will plant much but harvest little, for locusts will eat your crops.”
  5. Verse 48 (NLT) “You will be left hungry, thirsty, naked, and lacking in everything.”
  6. Deuteronomy 28:1-14—The Blessing of Abraham
  7. Verse 2 (NKJV) “And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtakeyou, because you obey the voice of the Lord your God.”
  8. Verse 11 (MSG) “God will lavish you with good things.”
  9. Verse 11 (NKJV) “The Lord will grant you plenty of goods.”
  10. Verse 11 (AMPC) “The Lord shall make you have a surplus of prosperity.”
  11. THE BLESSING does not depend on the state of the economy.

“I AM REDEEMED FROM THE CURSE OF LACK.”

E. Psalm 23:1—There is No Lack in God

  1. Verse 1 (AMPC) “The Lord is my Shepherd [to feed, guide, and shield me], I shall not lack.”
  2. Psalm 84:11 (TPT) “For the Lord God is brighter than the brilliance of a sunrise! Wrapping himself around me like a shield, he is so generous with his gifts of grace and glory. Those who walk along his paths with integrity will never lack one thing they need, for he provides it all.”
  3. Psalm 34:9-10 (NLT) “Fear the Lord, you his godly people, for those who fear him will have all they need. Even strong young lions sometimes go hungry, but those who trust in the Lord will lack no good thing.”
  4. Deuteronomy 2:7 (NLT) “For the Lord your God has blessed you in everything you have done. He has watched your every step through this great wilderness.
    During these forty years, the Lord your God has been with you, and you have lacked nothing.”
  5. Psalm 37:25 (NIV) “I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread.”

“THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD. HE FEEDS ME. HE GUIDES ME. HE SHIELDS ME. I SHALL NOT LACK!”

“Something is coming to the economy. Whatever it may be—if a person is operating in kingdom principles, it will be just like they are in the ark at the time of the flood of Noah. The worse conditions got, the higher Noah rose. The worse things get, the higher kingdom people will rise in prominence in the earth.” –Pastor Bill Winston

F. Philippians 4:19—God is Our Supply Chain, Our Source and Supreme Provider

  1. Verse 19 (AMPC) “And my God will liberally supply (fill to the full) your every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.”
  2. “My God will supply your needs so completely that He will eliminate all until you are so full, you have no more capacity to hold anything else. He will supply all your needs until you are totally filled, packed full and overflowing to the point of bursting at the seams and spilling over.” – Rick Renner Translation
  3. 1 Corinthians 8:6 (AMPC) “Yet for us there is only one God, the Father, Who is the Source of all things.”
  4. God is our Source. Not man. Not the government.
  5. “El Shaddai will demonstrate provisional miracles that are contrary to natural events.”–Creflo Dollar

“GOD IS MY SUPPLY CHAIN. GOD IS MY SOURCE. GOD IS MY SUPREME PROVIDER.”

G. My Dear Sons and Daughters,

During these times, I am going to take care of you.

If you will believe Me for the miraculous, I will provide for you what is lacking for others. I will fill your home, your business, your ministry, your wallet, your purse, your bank account, your car and everything else that needs to be filled.

I am “The Filler.” I have a never-ending supply that will never dry up. I am not impoverished, nor do I have just a limited supply. Supplies are not limited in My Kingdom. I have it all and want to get it to you. I have more than enough.

I will locate it in the earth and will get it to you. Don’t accept it when they say, “I’m sorry, We are out of what you need,” No! Just use your faith and align your mouth with My ability to do for you what is needed in this natural time of lack.

I will take care of you.

Don’t worry when costs rise. I will make sure you have more than enough to pay for whatever you need. I am your, “Supernatural Supply Chain.” I am the God written about in Isaiah 45:3. “I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that it is I, the Lord, the God of Israel, Who calls

you by your name” (Amplified Bible, Classic Edition).

I will give you concealed treasures. I will reveal to you My hidden stockpiles. I will take care of anyone and everyone who calls upon My Name and exercises their faith for the impossible. My people do not lack in times of shortage. Just look at Isaac. He reaped a 100-fold in a time of famine (Genesis 26).

Yes, I will supply your every need. But you know Me. I will give you more than you need. I will give you exceedingly, abundantly more than you could ever ask, think, or dream. I will give you so much so that you will have plenty left over to help others.

I take care of My own. You are Mine. And I am yours.


Your Loving Father

First thing He said to me, “You’re going to speak to the church this morning. You’re speaking to the ministries on prayer. I want you to be My mouthpiece. Speak to them slowly, gently, with divine urgency, because they have a dream and they have a vision which must be realized because I’ve given that to them. They are My people. But they are people of destiny, and so be warned that nothing should be said that I have not said to you. Say it with compassion. Assure them that I know of the love that is amongst them. But that should increase tenfold in view of what is going to happen shortly. Speak to Kenneth Copeland Ministries and the International Church. Tell them that I regard them as people of destiny as much as I regarded those four young people, part of the banished nation far away from Jerusalem, waiting for the day when Jerusalem would once again be the home and the center of My people. “You intended to speak on Daniel and certain excerpts from that. It is good because that is within the guidance of My Spirit and within the center of My will. But forget your notes. You’re not sermonizing. Regard it as a prophetic spirit that has come to you through Me. Tell them that the secret of those four young men—Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego–the secret was that they frequently prayed, although they found themselves in a strange culture. They fasted. And as they will do what I am to tell you to do, they will feel My Spirit resting upon them, equipping them, empowering them to go forth and be My people in a world that is not very different from what they found themselves in. There are so many strange cultures in America. So many strange nations across the world. And this is an international body, reaching out to the furthest corners of the world. “Tell them to read the book of Daniel. It is a much-neglected book. Some of My people have taken from it certain parts that they liked. But I would have them as a body to read the entire book, to commence with that reading individually and corporately as soon as possible. They must hear it word for word. They must note the number of times that these people fasted and prayed, and let fasting be one of the clear motivations in their life to know My fullness and to know my plans for them. “They are My people. They are people of My choice. They are people of destiny. The leadership must know that My Spirit will never depart from them. If they draw near unto Me, I shall draw near unto them. More than that, I shall ever be with them, never removed at any distance. Shortly, they will be ministering in this country. They will also be ministering in other countries, but every time, My anointing will rest upon them so powerfully that they will know they are people of My choice, and make themselves available. I want them to know that everyone involved in the ministry, whether it be a menial task, the most unimportant task in their own eyes, if they’re My instruments, they are important. There is no link that can be taken out of the chain. “I repeat, speak to them slowly, deliberately, fearlessly, but with divine compassion. Love them as My people, My Church, My Body, My Bride. Reassure them once again of My love that is infallible at all times, and My Spirit that is available to them at all times since I dwell in them, I’ll be living with them and in them from this day forward more powerfully than ever before. They are My nation. They are My people of priests and prophets. And none of them, not the least of them, should try to withdraw from what I’m going to reveal to them and what I’m to require of them.” Folks, I tried to sleep. But this power of God rested upon me so heavily, so mightily, that I…Whenever God reveals Himself to me it’s quickening and energizing. Yet this morning, when I woke up I was tired out. It was a remarkable experience. I’m going to read a few passages which came to me at that time, to show you the importance of this book. And, Pastor George, I don’t know when you’re going to start it. The Lord said as soon as it’s possible for you to do it, do it methodically, do it faithfully, both in your private capacities, and as a corporate Body.
Two people kneel in a church pew, heads bowed in prayer with hands clasped.

Men, Pastor George heard from God after asking Him: “Lord, what would make 2026 YOUR most productive year?” The Lord answered: 16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had appointed for them. 17 When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some doubted. 18 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go [ a ]therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” [ b ]Amen. Matt 28:16-20 The Lord gave Ps. George further instruction by saying: “Make your church more conducive to the lost” then to “Mobilize the troops!”. Men, we have been mobilized to share Jesus and challenged to develop a culture of invitation.

“We are an evangelistic church!” This statement rose up in Pastor George’s heart a few weeks ago and it has carried him every message since. Pastor George continued his series this past Sunday on the importance of bringing others to church. Did you know that 79% of people who come to a church for the first time come because someone invited them? There is no greater tool than personal invitation! We encourage you to ask yourself throughout this week, who can I bring to church with me next Sunday?

What began with a visible reset in Venezuela is a picture of what God is doing among nations and among His people. The Lord said He has seen the mess and is fixing it. His peace is being released, just as Jesus spoke to the storm and said, “Peace, be still.” That same authority is still at work today, especially concerning Israel and the United States.

The Era of Spiritual Fathers During our October Men’s Breakfast Ps. Al shared from a Word from God about the last prophecy that were the last words of the Old Testament. That last prophecy of the Old Covenant was Malachi 4:5-6: Behold I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great AND DREADFUL DAY OF THE Lord: and He shall turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. The last words from the Old Testament were a prophetic promise of a convergence of fathers and children with their hearts coming together in the end times. As you turn the page from the Old Testament into the first page of the New Testament it begins with the bloodlines from Abraham to Jesus with one exception: Joseph was not Jesus’ father by blood but emerged as the first of the lineage of spiritual fathers we read about throughout the New Covenant. This is the era we are now in – the era of spiritual fathers and we must turn our attention and focus to preparation and discipleship of the next generation. I encourage you to view October’s Men’s Breakfast teaching and notes below to capture the full experience about what was shared. Confession over our Championship Year Father, we ask for a mighty and sustained manifestation of Your wonderful glory in this current season; manifesting Your majestic presence, Your awesome power, Your extravagant goodness that brings: 1. An awakening to You in the body of Christ; waking us out of our apathy, complacency, and lethargy! 2. Protection and victory for Israel – the apple of Your eye! 3.

Living a Legacy That Honors Jesus Not too long ago, we witnessed now one of history’s most horrific events. The assassination of a true patriot and man of courage and Faith, Charlie Kirk. When asked not too long ago what He would want to be remembered by if he died. His response was simple but powerful. “I want to be remembered by my courage for my faith.” How do you want to be remembered? Not for titles, achievements, or applause, but for courage in your faith. For standing boldly for Jesus, the Son of the Living God. The most important thing in life is not what we build, but who we become. Becoming like Jesus. “The most important thing you can do is to be born anew into the kingdom of God.” Jesus at the Center Worship reminds us: Jesus is the center of it all. He is not just part of our story; He is the story. He doesn’t just have the message; He is the message. The Gospel is not a side message; it is the message that transforms lives. Wake-Up Call: A Legacy Worth Living Psalm 78:1–32 calls us to remember and retell the works of God. It’s a generational mandate, to pass on the truth, the miracles, and the faithfulness of God. We are called to awaken, to rise from spiritual slumber and live lives that shine with Christ. “Wake up, sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.” — Ephesians 5:14 The Gospel: The Message That Endures The Gospel is not just a story, it’s the power of God to redeem and restore. The Gospel is the Birth , Life, Death, Resurrection, and the Second Coming of our Lord Jesus. This is the message that saves, heals, and sets free. It’s not our talents or testimonies; it’s Jesus and only Jesus. Your Past Doesn’t Disqualify You God never consults your past to determine your future. Scripture is filled with men who failed, yet were used mightily: • Adam disobeyed — still became the father of humanity. • David sinned — still called a man after God’s heart. • Peter denied Christ — still preached at Pentecost. • Paul persecuted believers — still wrote much of the New Testament. God doesn’t call the perfect — He perfects the called. Living the Message If you had one last message to preach, let it be Jesus. Let it look like love, sacrifice, and death to self. Be Jesus with skin on, as my spiritual mother in the faith gospel legend, evangelist and songwriter Nancy Harmon said to me many years ago. I can still hear her say her most famous words “I am bound to a cause far greater than myself.” She truly lived this. She loved people, but most of all she loved God. Legacy Questions for Every Man “Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.” — Proverbs 19:21 • How do you want to be remembered? • How does that align with your God-given purpose? • What can you do now to live that life — in your walk, speech, actions, and thoughts? • What steps will you take to know Jesus and preach His message? The Vision of EMIC We have a great part to play in both the vision and mission of EMIC. Pastor George has modeled what it means to know the Lord. We are commissioned to make that our ultimate priority. “For my determined purpose is that I may know Him.” — Pastor George The Enemy Is After Your Legacy He wants to rob the message, the promise, and the Word placed on your life. But remember: “Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away.” — Matthew 24:35 Final Charge Men, rise up. Be awakened. Be bold. Be faithful. Let your life preach Jesus and only Jesus, the message that never fades and never loses it’s transforming redeeming power. Let your legacy be one that echoes through generations: a man who knew Jesus and made Him known. Confession over our Championship Year Father, we ask for a mighty and sustained manifestation of Your wonderful glory in this current season; manifesting Your majestic presence, Your awesome power, Your extravagant goodness that brings: 1. An awakening to You in the body of Christ; waking us out of our apathy, complacency, and lethargy! 2. Protection and victory for Israel – the apple of Your eye! 3. Protection and wisdom for President Trump and those called to his side as he leads our nation under Your providential hand. 4.

Breakthroughs of growth, prosperity, influence and favor for our ministry leaders, KCM, EMIC, KCBC and the Victory Channel. 6.

Removing the Obstacles that get in the way of His presence God’s glory entered our Men’s Breakfast in August as many answered the call to remove all obstacles that get in the way of entering into His presence – HIS WAY! We learned that we must come to God on His terms and not on our terms. That was the sin of the Israelites as some scholars believed that the golden calf was created as a vessel for God to ride on that he may enter into ‘their’ presence of compromise. “And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron. And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said these be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made a proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD. And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose to play” Exodus 32:2-6 “God will not meet you on your terms, but He will meet you where you are if you pursue Him with pure heart”. – Ps. Al “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners and purify your hearts you double-minded”. James 4:8 In James 4:8 we have our instructions on how to approach God; clean hands that are repented and a pure heart or a heart that has the right intentions – to know God better. In Joshua 7, God’s presence was removed from Joshua’s army and they lost the first battle against Ai. Joshua pleaded with the Lord to know why and the Lord revealed that one of Joshua’s men, Achan, had disobediently taken of the spoils of war and mixed among his possessions – the blessed things given by God. So the Lord said to Joshua: “Get up! Why do you lie thus on your face? Israel has sinned, and they have transgressed My covenant which I have commanded them For they have taken some of the accursed things, and have both stolen and deceived; and they have also put it among their own stuff.” Joshua 7:10-11 The Lord’s presence and power will not dwell amongst the environment of mixture we create. We cannot be in His presence on our terms of compromise but on His terms of purity. It is not about being perfect but about submitting to His ways and having a pure heart of pursuit. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Matthew 5:8 KJV Men, as Pastor George continues to lead us into the presence of God that we may know Him better – lets make it our determined purpose to pursue Him with clean hands and a pure heart!

We have dominion over our house! During the July Men’s Breakfast Pastor George delivered a powerful word and call to action to the men of EMIC. He said that we were created to be an exact duplicate of God having His prevailing and ruling authority to bring all things under dominion-control. Yet You have made him but a little lower than God [or heavenly beings], and You have crowned him with glory and honor. You have made him to have dominion over the works of your hands; You have put all things under his feet. Psalm 8:5-6 AMPC. In this authority we are to dress and keep, or, to oversee and guard our ‘gardens’ or our households commanding the devil to: “GET OUT OF MY GARDEN AND NEVER COME BACK!” “Men, its time to take authority over your garden and cast out everything that doesn’t belong there!” – Pastor George This includes: Sickness and disease, poverty and lack, fear, worry, care and anxiety, strife and whatever is of the curse of the law. James 4:7 (AMPC) So be subject to God. Resist the devil [stand firm against him], and he will flee from you. Please see the Men’s Breakfast – Get out of My Garden teaching video and notes by Pastor George attached and begin to exercise your priestly authority!
