SERMON TITLE: "Hear the Son in the Last Age"
Key Texts: Hebrews 1:1-2, John 3:30, Acts 26:16, Joel 2:28-31, Revelation 1:1, Proverbs 29:18

INTRODUCTION
We are in the last days. Hebrews 1:2 — “in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son.”

God showed me 3 VISIONS: Red 7 in the sky, Green 7 on the wall, then a skeleton.
But I’m not here to make you stare at visions. I’m here as a servant to do 2 things:
Feed His sheep with truth
Testify to what I have seen Him — Acts 26:16

And the one point is: John 3:30 — “He must increase, but I must decrease.”
So today: Don’t look at the sign. Hear the Son.

1. HEAR THE SON: GOD IS SPEAKING NOW
Joel 2:28 — “I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your young men shall see visions, your old men shall dream dreams.”
Revelation 1:1 — “The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants...”

The visions are not the message. The Son is.
RED 7 VISION in the sky = The blood of Jesus. The work is finished. The time is complete.

GREEN 7 VISION on the wall = Life from the Spirit. God wants to restore His house.

SKELETON VISION= What’s left when we ignore the Son. Death. Ezekiel 37:11

Proverbs 29:18 — “Where there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint, but blessed is he who keeps the law.”
God gives vision so we don’t wander. But the vision’s purpose is to bring us back to the Word and to obey the Son.

If we chase the vision and miss the Voice, we miss everything.

2. SPIRITUAL RENEWAL + REVIVAL: COME BACK TO THE WORD
Joel 2:29 — “Even on the male and female servants in those days I will pour out my Spirit.”

Revival is not hype. It’s when the Spirit brings us back to Jesus.
Psalm 51:10 — “Renew a right spirit within me.”
The Spirit’s job is to testify of Christ. John 15:26

So when God speaks through visions, He’s saying: “Come back to My Word. Come back to My Son.”

3. REPENTANCE + OBEDIENCE = LIFE + PURITY AS WE WAIT
Joel 2:31 — “before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes.”
The day is near. So what do we do?

Acts 3:19 — “Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out.”
John 14:23 — “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word.”
1 Peter 1:15-16 — “be holy in all your conduct, for I am holy.”
1 John 3:3 — “everyone who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure.”

We wait for Jesus not by watching the sky, but by washing in the Word and walking in obedience.
Matthew 24:44 — “Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming...”

4. THE WITNESS: DECREASE SO HE INCREASES
Am Reagan a servant & a witness of Jesus appointed by Jesus himself to feed his sheep with truth of His revelation ( word) & warning from visions He showed to last age.

And to testify of the things ( visions)Has shown me unto living ones in this last age.
Acts 26:16 — “appoint you as a servant and witness to the things in which you have seen me.”

My calling is not a title. It’s to testify.
And the testimony must always end at the cross.
Revelation 19:10 — “The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”

CLOSING CALL + PRAYER
Don’t leave here talking about Red 7 or Green 7.
Leave here with one question answered: Have I heard the Son and obeyed Him?

Prayer:
Father, speak. We are listening.
Forgive us for chasing signs and missing You.
Pour Your Spirit. Renew us. Give us repentant hearts and obedient feet.
Wash us and make us pure as we wait for Jesus.
Let Jesus increase in us. In His Name, Amen. Revelation 22:20


Summary to Remember
Visions → to get our attention
The Son → to get our obedience
Result → Awakening, Renewal, Repentance, Purity, Readiness

Proverbs 29:18 — Without God’s vision people run wild. But with His vision we keep His law and we are blessed.

Daily Devotion — August 18 | Acts 19:6 (NKJV)

Living in the Power of God's Spirit

In Acts 19, Paul arrived in Ephesus and met a group of disciples who had not yet fully understood the work of the Holy Spirit. After teaching them about Jesus Christ and baptizing them in His name, Paul laid his hands on them, and the Holy Spirit came upon them. This event demonstrated God's presence and confirmed His work among these believers as the gospel continued to spread.

The central truth of this passage is not the outward signs themselves but the transforming presence of the Holy Spirit in the lives of God's people. From the beginning of the church, the Holy Spirit empowered believers to live boldly, faithfully, and effectively for Christ.

For believers today, every follower of Jesus is called to live in daily dependence on the Holy Spirit. He gives wisdom, strength, comfort, and power to obey God's Word and to be faithful witnesses for Christ. Rather than relying on our own abilities, we can trust the Spirit to guide and equip us each day.

Reflection Questions

1. Am I depending on the Holy Spirit in my daily walk with God?

2. In what areas do I need God's strength instead of my own?

3. How can I be more sensitive to the Spirit's leading?

Prayer

Lord God, thank You for giving Your Holy Spirit to guide and strengthen Your people. Help me to depend on You each day instead of my own understanding. Fill my life with Your wisdom, power, and love so that I may faithfully serve You and glorify Your name. In Jesus name Amen.

Practical Application

● Begin each day by asking the Holy Spirit to guide you.

● Trust God's strength when facing difficult situations.

● Look for opportunities to serve others through the Spirit's leading.

Takeaway Thought

A life surrendered to the Holy Spirit is a life empowered to glorify Christ.

OBEY THE PROTOCOLS OF LIFE

Obedience • Wisdom • Protection

ANCHOR SCRIPTURE

Proverbs 19:16 (KJV) “He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his own soul; but he that despiseth his ways shall die.”

1. OBEDIENCE PROTECTS YOU

Many troubles come from ignoring instructions.

Don't break the rules and blame the consequences.

2. RESPECT THE PROTOCOL

Every area of life has rules and procedures—family, marriage, church, work, business and society.

Following the right process can save you: Time • Money • Relationships • Reputation

3. THINK BEFORE YOU ACT

Proverbs 18:13 (KJV) “He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.”

Listen → Understand → Follow instructions → Act wisely.

4. RESPECT LEGITIMATE AUTHORITY

Respecting authority brings order.

But don't follow blindly. When human instructions conflict with God's Word: Obey God first.

5. FOLLOW GOD'S PROTOCOL

Deuteronomy 10:12 (KJV) “...what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all his ways...”

God's Word should guide your decisions.

KEY LESSON

1. Listen carefully.
2. Follow instructions.
3. Respect boundaries.
4. Honour legitimate authority.
5. Think before acting.
6. Learn from correction.
7. Put God first.

FINAL CHARGE

Life has protocols.

Obedience is not weakness; it is wisdom in action.

Respect the protocol.
Follow the instruction.
Avoid unnecessary trouble.

SHORT PRAYER

Father, give me wisdom to understand and obey Your instructions. Help me respect legitimate authority, follow wise counsel and avoid unnecessary trouble. Give me humility to accept correction and discipline to do what is right. In Jesus' name, Amen.

“His divine power has given us everything required for life and godliness through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. By these he has given us very great and precious promises, so that through them you may share in the divine nature, escaping the corruption that is in the world because of evil desire.” — 2 Peter 1:3–4 (CSB)

Peter reminds us that God has already provided everything we need to live a life that honors Him. Through knowing Christ, we receive His power, His promises, and the ability to grow beyond the sinful desires of this world. Spiritual growth is not accomplished through our strength alone; God supplies what we need as we trust Him and walk in obedience to His Word. His promises give us confidence that He is continually working within us, shaping us to become more like Christ.

Proverbs 29:18 — Without God’s vision people run wild. But with His vision we keep His law and we are blessed.

James 1:21-27
Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. [22] But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. [23] For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; [24] for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. [25] But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does. [26] If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one's religion is useless. [27] Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.

Faithful Application: Use the text "the Word of God" for teaching, correction, and training in righteousness so lives are truly transformed.

SERMON TITLE: "He Must Increase& l decrease:

Am Reagan a servant & a Witness of Jesus in this Last Age"
Key Texts: John 3:30, Acts 26:16, Revelation 1:1-3, Joel 2:28, Hebrews 1:2, Matthew 24:44, 1 Peter 1:15-16



INTRODUCTION
Church, we are living in the last age.
God is speaking again — Hebrews 1:2 — “but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son.”
And He is still pouring out His Spirit — Joel 2:28 — “your young men shall see visions, your old men shall dream dreams.”

The Lord showed me 3 things( visions): Red 7 in the sky, Green 7 on the wall, and then a skeleton after they vanished.
I’m not here to be called a title. I’m here for one reason: John 3:30 — “He must increase, but I must decrease.”
I am a servant to feed His sheep truth. A witness to testify to what I have seen Him.
And the message is for you now: Awaken. Renew. Repent. Obey. Be pure. Jesus is coming.

1. AWAKENING: HEAR THE SON-- GOD IS SPEAKING THROUGH THE SON.

Revelation 1:1 — “The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things that must soon take place.”

Proverbs29:18 .. ' without visions people perish."

MESSAGE of the Red 7 vision in the sky — Red speaks of blood. 7 speaks of completion.
This is heaven’s warning: The blood of Jesus has finished the work, and the time is complete. Joel 2:30-31 — “wonders in heavens... before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes.”
God is saying: Wake up. The Judge is at the door. James 5:9

We cannot sleep in sin when heaven is writing in the sky.
Romans 13:11 — “it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.”

2. RENEWAL & REVIVAL: LIFE ON THE WALL
Green 7 vision on the wall — Green is life, growth, restoration. The wall is God’s house, the boundary of His people. Ezekiel 22:30 — “I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall and stand in the breach.”

God is calling for renewal. Not new methods. New hearts.
Psalm 51:10 — “Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.”
Ezekiel 37:4 — “Prophesy to these bones... O dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.”

This is revival: When God’s Word brings life back to dead places.
But it only comes when we return to the Word and the Spirit. Zechariah 4:6 — “Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord.”

3. REPENTANCE & OBEDIENCE: OR THE SKELETON REMAINS
Skeleton vision. ,after they vanished. skeleton vision— When the warning of blood and the offer of life are ignored, what’s left is death.
Ezekiel 37:11 — “These bones are the whole house of Israel. Behold, they say, ‘Our bones are dried up.’”

This is the danger of the last age: Religious, but dead. Revelation 3:1 — “You have a reputation that you are alive, but you are dead.”

The answer is not more activity. It’s repentance.
Acts 3:19 — “Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out.”
John 14:23 — “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word.”

Obedience is proof of love. Purity is proof of waiting.
1 John 3:3 — “And everyone who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure.”
1 Peter 1:15-16 — “As he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct.”

4. THE WITNESS: TESTIFY OF HIM, NOT OF SELF
Acts 26:16 — “I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you as a servant and witness to the things in which you have seen me.”

This is my calling in the last age. Not platforms. Not titles. Witnesses.
Revelation 19:10 — “The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”

Every vision, every warning, every sermon must point to Jesus.
John 3:30 — “He must increase, but I must decrease.”
If people leave remembering me, I failed. If they leave hungry for Jesus, I succeeded.

Matthew 24:44 — “Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.”

APPLICATION: 4 STEPS TO BE READY
Awaken - Get out of spiritual sleep. Watch and pray. Mark 13:33
Renew - Ask God to revive your first love. Revelation 2:4-5
Repent + Obey - Turn from sin. Walk in the Word. James 1:22
Purify - Live holy as thy God is Holy God.

God's Word is truth, let it shape, cleanse, and guide your life.

Share this with someone who needs encouragement to stay grounded in God's Word.
