Prayer in Pursuit
Bob Hawk
Church of the Word Sermons
All of us need to be praying in the Spirit with perseverance, patience, and supplication for all the saints in order to change their lives. The prayer of intercession is labor (painful effort) for others until Christ is formed in them. (Eph. 6:18-20, Is. 66:8; Gal. 4:19; Gal. 6:7-9; Heb. 10:35-39). We should be praying the Apostolic prayers: Eph. 1:15-23; Col. 1:9-16.]

Shift of The Spirit and Believer's Ministry
Bob Hawk
Church of the Word Sermons
Pastor Bob delivered a message about the shift in CWI. Some of the shift includes: a firm foundation, restoring and replacing the weak, broken parts in people's lives, bringing people back, a strong desire and passion in the purpose of ministry, a release of anointings on believers and stronger revelation, and a release of the apostolic anointing. He warns us to check for any cracks in our foundation (beliefs), to make sure our rock is Jesus Christ, to walk in obedience to the word given to us, and to LOOK TO JESUS! The higher the anointing, the more sin will be exposed. Ask yourself what you need to be cleansed from, and lay them down at the altar.

Are you passionate for our Lord? Ephesians 6:10 tells us to be strong in His might and to stand against the wiles of the devil.

Fervent Effectual Prayer
Bob Hawk
Church of the Word Sermons
After a prophetic word and ministry time, Pastor Bob preached on James 5:13-20. He spoke prophetically about reaching back-slidden Christians, not letting the devil come into the church bringing schisms, offenses, and division, and having assignments to bring the gifts of the Spirit to others. To get there, prayer is needed to open the doors to push through the new thing. This prayer must be dynamic with a corporate anointing backing up the work and workers. We need to be persistent (Luke 18), stand when you have done all you can, ask for wisdom and apply it, and believe the Word and not our circumstances. The answer to prayer is linked to praise. James 1:2-7 tells us faith, patience, wisdom, and not doubting are keys to receiving from the Lord. The prayer of faith is always bold, confident, and has a peace that goes beyond understanding. Do not settle for anything from the devil, because it does not belong to you. Live in your covenant rights and fight. Faith always obtains the victory. There was also a time of praise and worship, prayer for Dr. Kandole and intercession for a young man in a coma.

Bob Hawk
Church of the Word Sermons
Rom. 1:11; II Tim. 1:1-9; Eph. 5:1-2; I John 1:7. We, as the body have been given gifts, which need to be stirred up, like reviving a fire. Doing what God has required us to do is an act of our will, whether it’s serving in the helps ministry, in giving, or in the five-fold gifts. We (corporately) have been given the spirit of power, love, and a sound mind. Corporately, we must get rid of the spirit of fear, which renders our gifts powerless and useless. We need to be connected with the heart of the Father. Eph. 5 tells us to awake, submit to one another in the fear of God- be real, honest, and transparent. What hinders the gift of God in you? SIN- transgressing the law of love. Let Jesus have first place, and let the gifts in you be released now. Anything that’s not love will take you out of what God has for you.

John 15:12- It’s God commandment that we love one another as He loved us and that we lay down our life for our friends. Faith without works is dead. The earmark (a mark on the ear by which sheep are known) is our love. Gal. 5:13 and 14 tell us by love to serve one another and to love our neighbor as ourselves. Other scriptures: Rom. 13:8-10; Phil. 1:3-11; I John 4:8, 16, 17; I Cor. 13. God is love, and His love is in our hearts by the Holy Spirit. Make I Cor. 13 a part of your life in every part of your life.

Earmark to Increase: The Love of God
Bob Hawk
Church of the Word Sermons
I John 3:13-18 tells us to love in deed and in truth. Faith without action is dead. We must do His commandments, which are to believe in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and to love one another. I Thess. 3:8-13 ... and may the Lord make you increase and abound in love to one another ... so that He may establish your hearts blameless in holiness at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. In Phil. 1:8 Paul prayed that our love may abound in all knowledge and discernment. Ask yourself: "Am I still teachable?" (Prov. 1:5) John 13:34, 35. In the same way God loves and forgives us, so we need to love and see other believers. We are to be imitators of God as children, walking in love (Eph. 5:1, 2). Selfishness stops love from flowing and keeps us from serving God and opening our mouth for Him.

Love That Prevails
Bob Hawk
Church of the Word Sermons
We are commanded to walk and act in love. Strife, bitterness, jealousy, etc., cause a person to disconnect from the love walk, and then God cannot reveal Himself to you. God IS love; you are love and are a vehicle of His love to others. We are to follow Jesus and imitate Him in the way He loves. God loved us first, and when we realize His love for us personally, we have a reason to love, give, and to serve. Monitor what you’re saying and make sure your words are life and blessing. Keep the enemy out of your heart, so you do not lose your fruit. Perfect love, a mature love, does not fear evil, because we know God is with us and is our helper. We build ourselves up by praying in the Holy Spirit. Scriptures: I Cor. 13:8; Rom. 13:8-10; John 13:34; John 15:9, 10; Eph. 5:1; I Cor. 13:4-8; I Cor. 13:13; I John 4:15-21; Jude 20.

Prayer: Spirit-Led or Flesh-Driven
Bob Hawk
Church of the Word Sermons
Rom. 8:1-32. God’s commandment is for us to walk in love and to pray in the Holy Spirit. If we pray in the flesh, our praying can be manipulative and will not release what God’s will is for whomever we are praying. These kinds of prayers displease God. We have to answer to God for what HE has called us to do, not all the "good" things that we do "in the flesh". We are to pray for the body of Christ, our brothers and sisters, and pray for the them to go into all the world and preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Praying in the Spirit connects us to the divine commission and to the Word. Find out where you are not living to your full potential, because that is where you need to pray by the Spirit. Eph. 6:10-18 tells us to stand, take authority, not settle for good instead of best, and to pray and supplicate in the Spirit. PRAY FOR THE BODY, YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST. Do not limit and manipulate other peoples’ lives by what you speak and "prophesy". Praying Spirit prayers produces things working for our good and allows God to take over. Trust the Holy Spirit to pray through us for the youth. (Also Eph. 6:10-18)

The Love Monitor
Bob Hawk
Church of the Word Sermons
I John 4:7-21; I Cor. 13:4-7; I John 2:5, 15-17; Jude 20-25; Rev. 2:1-5; Matt. 24:3-14. Pastor Bob continues the series of sermons on the love walk with a sermon on monitoring our love walk. To monitor means"one who warns of faults or informs of duty; one who gives advice and instruction by way of reproof or caution." (1828 Webster’s Dictionary)If you are in fear, there’s something wrong in your love walk. Do you keep God’s Word and your own word? Are you a doer of the Word? Do you love one another? Love never quits. We are to keep (prevent from escaping) ourselves in the love of God, not falling out of love with others and God. We are to repent and do the first works- those things we did in joy and enthusiasm of our new relationship with Jesus- obnoxiously passionate for Jesus. Don’t lose your love for God or for your spouse. He who endures to the end shall be saved. Love never fails, and he who does the will of God abides forever. Do not love the world.

The Word of The Lord for 2010
Bob Hawk
Armada Landmark 2010
CWI Pastor Bob Hawk preaches about the word of the Lord for the body of Christ for this year and possibly seven years in the future. The church is a body in motion in the movement of the Lord. People need to focus on God's will and purpose to be where each one needs to be. The first word was: Supernatural favor to God's faithful ones. We must help others to be true to their covenant and to submit to love, not control. We teach effectively when our words, actions, and faithfulness are witnessed by others. When we release a ministry to someone else, we need to make sure they are responsible with the authority they are given. The second word was: Season of natural and supernatural impartation of spiritual gifts and natural alignments that will affect government, business, the arts, and ministry. We need to be established in the gift that is in us. (This sermon is continued on Friday.)

The Word of The Lord Continued
Bob Hawk
Armada Landmark 2010
Bob Hawk expounds on the first two words the Lord gave him, and preaches on the other three words. #3 was: Revelations to a higher depth with a stronger flow will be released to God’s people. We should not assume that the generation coming into the church understands what we understand. We will need to repreach and reteach them, and greater revelation will come to us, such as a revelation of His righteousness which is freedom from oppression and fear and will change the prayer life of the church. There will be waves of separation and sanctification of holiness. There would be an understanding of the order of His body, the authority and the responsibility. There are some people who won’t fit in your church. #4 was: Seasons of separation for many, some of whom have been in ministry, but are going to be moved into the real ministry they were created for. There is a separation into holiness and purity, ministry, and good works. #5 was: There is a moving of the Holy Spirit to bring His people back to an understanding of the revelation of the fear of the Lord.

The Love of Light
Bob Hawk
Church of the Word Sermons
Ps. 119:130 tells you that God’s words give light and understanding to the simple. Do you love the light? Eph. 1:16-18 is a prayer for spiritual wisdom (pray ... that the eyes of your understanding being enlightened). God is your Father, and Jesus has already paid the price so that you are redeemed and can access your Father’s throne room. God wants to flood the eyes of your heart with light. You have a certain time from now until you die or Jesus comes for His church, whichever comes first, to reach the unsaved people. Are your eyes set on Jesus? What do you pour your life into every day? You need to make the decision to not be deceived, and the biggest deception might be your thinking that you’re going the right way when you aren’t. Keep your eyes on God and Jesus. Fellowship with God. Make sure your thinking is in line with His. We are headed to a great awakening, and the whole body needs to be motion. John 12:46, 47 Jesus Christ came to save, not judge, the world, and so should you be doing. Are people not being reached because the church too busy? Another deception is taking the Word for granted. If you believe in Jesus, you shouldn’t be abiding in darkness ( not understanding and tapping into all the grace and truth of Jesus, not being filled with the Holy Spirit, and having your understanding clouded, etc.). You are to be world-changers. What have you done with Jesus? What are you doing with what He has given you? Light is revelation. You should walk in the light (I John 1:5). Ask people questions to get into a conversation about Jesus. Reach souls for Jesus. Who have you reached with the Gospel? REPENT. Ask forgiveness and turn away from the sin and the distractions, not to go back to them again.

The Love of Light- part 2
Bob Hawk
Church of the Word Sermons
Prov. 20:27 tells you that the spirit of man is the lamp of the Lord, searching all the inner depths of his heart. Your spirit man must be fed on the Word, and you must take time with the Lord. It’s your spirit man’s strength that will give you the victory. Your future, purpose, and destiny are inside of you, but the enemy tries to cloud what God has done and wants to do in your life. God has revealed to you through His Spirit the things He has prepared for you. ((I Cor. 2:12-16) For you to get to the deeper place that God has for you will take your being hungry and thirsty for His presence. For you to experience the greatest pleasure and the perfect will of God, you need to be in fellowship with Him. There’s a caution: don’t let culture, fables, and worldly suspicions keep you from the purposes of God. Make sure what you’re believing and acting on is the Word of God. Let God direct you, not your mind, discern the spirits, and operate out of your spirit.

Light It Up
Bob Hawk
Church of the Word Sermons
(There are several words, personal and general given at the beginning of the sermon.) God is light and God is love, and so are we. We are created in God’s image to do good works. What are you to be doing? Jesus did more than teaching, preaching, and healing. We are to be zealous for good works. Scripture is profitable. We can’t change if we don’t allow the light to expose our sin and the darkness in us. God wants profit from His church, and so we must present ourselves to Him to a higher degree. He wants to instruct us in righteousness. Where do you stand in your love walk?

Being Led by the Spirit of God
Bob Hawk
Church of the Word Sermons
Rom. 8:12-16. In these end times we must be led by the Holy Spirit and not by the flesh. We must be transformed by the renewing of our minds and put to death the deeds of the body (flesh). Maintain your spirit life and don’t let your flesh control you through your mind. If we are led by the Spirit of God, we are the sons of God, which are the mature ones. We have not received the spirit of bondage to fear. Listen to Pastor Bob’s wife, Sharon, share her testimony of fear manifested in compulsive-obsessive behavior and her deliverance from it by using the Word and releasing forgiveness in her spirit and in her mind. Train your flesh to listen to the Spirit. Meditate on the truth that you are a child of the Almighty Creator God. Communicate with your Father through the Holy Spirit. Ps. 34:7-11 tells us about the goodness of the Spirit and what we have as God’s sons. Pastor Bob delivers a word at the end of the service.

Did I Ever Tell You About
Bob Hawk
Church of the Word Sermons
Listen to Pastor Bob and Sharon Hawk’s testimony about proving God in tithes and offerings, a word given through Pastor Dale, and Pastor Bob’s prophetic words to individuals. Ps. 34:1-10 tells us to bless, praise, magnify, exalt, and seek the Lord and that He delivers us from all our fears and saves us; taste and see that the Lord is good. Jer. 32:17 records that nothing is too hard for God. (Also: Mark 9:23 and Mark 10:27) Pastor Bob shares many testimonies of God’s goodness and His limitlessness. Teaching from Job 22:21-30 -acquaint yourself with God everyday and make decisions only in the peace of God; receive and meditate on His Word; put away, resist iniquity; make Him the delight of your life; decide and decree your desire. Mark 11:12-24 tells you to say and not doubt in your heart, and you shall have whatever you say. What do you want? BE SINGLE-MINDED! Repent. Pray and speak the same thing. Desire Jesus.

The Fear of the Lord
Bob Hawk
Church of the Word Sermons
Acts 9:31 and Heb. 12:28 and 29. The fear of God means no compromise, but obedience to Him, His will, His Spirit, and His Word. His commandment is to love Him and to love one another. The sin of The Fall was disobedience. We can’t carry sin into the throne room. Confess your sin to Him. Jesus Christ shed His blood and went to hell for you. Judgment begins in the house of the Lord. Become a living sacrifice for Jesus. We are called to His perfect will. Get right with Him in every part of your heart and minister to your family and to the people you meet. Reverence the Lord in church services. If we don’t reverence Him, He can’t draw the unsaved in.
