Hello and welcome to the House of Faith Ministries. I'm Lisa Kaine and I'm recording this teaching on Sunday, June 22nd, 2025. Welcome. Let's open up in a word of prayer. Father God, we thank you for your word and we bless your word that it does not return void. I ask and pray over the listeners of this teaching that their eyes and ears and heart and mind are prepared and that they receive this teaching. they determine its validity with you, that um it is imprinted in their hearts and that your Holy Spirit works with them and bring it to remembrance so they do not forget it and that they remember who you are and what you're about and what you do to each and every one of us as our lives begin and in our and as our lives end. Thank you, Father God, for your precious word. In the name of Jesus, we pray. Amen. Amen. Amen. and I'm glad you can join me today. Thank you for being here. This teaching is called the God who formed you. So, let's start off here in Jeremiah 1:4-10. Then the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, So, I'm going to stop here. This is Jeremiah. He is uh about to start the book of Jeremiah, and you can go read the whole thing on your own time. I'm going to just talk about these uh up to verse 10. The way I teach is I present to you the the word in the King James version. And if you see a bolded word in there with italicized words after it, the bolded word is the original word that the translators used in the King James version. And the italicized words are other words that the the translators could have used. And I get those other words from the Strong's Hebrew Greek dictionary. So, and I all I do is I add those extra words in that parenthesis is just to show you where the original author was going with this because we are talking through uh translation. So, I just want to clarify that. Okay. So, says then the word of the Lord came unto me saying, so now God is talking to Jeremiah and Jeremiah is recording this. We're in verse 5. Before I formed thee in the belly, I knew thee. And before thou camest forth out of the womb, I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. Okay, so we're going to stop really quick here. One of the things is I'm going to be talking about the God who formed me, the God who formed you. We are formed by God. The word formed, as you can see here, means to mold, squeeze, or determined. So he has determined us. He has molded us. He has prepared. He gave us a calling right at the outset here. There is just no uh holding back here. He's saying this is what I've called you. Now, he's telling this to Jeremiah. Now, I'm going to show you other scriptures here in a bit that's going to show you where the scriptures tell us that God is doing that to us, too. It's not just to be a prophet. But I wanted to show this to you because Jeremiah is a very interesting person. And he went through, for lack of a better phrase, hell on earth in speaking the words of God to the nation of Israel and then getting it written down and getting it preserved and his life ending. Jeremiah was called as a youth. And this is very, very interesting. He's saying straight up. This is God telling him before I formed you, before I even made the determination of you in the belly, he says, I knew, I recognized you. So, it's as if God had been sitting there waiting. I'm waiting for a prophet. Where is he? Oh, there he is. So, at the moment of conception, it was like, there he is. I knew you. This is the God that we serve. God is so powerful that even at the moment of conception, he writes a book about us. I'm going to get into that a little bit here. It's something I've taught on before, but I wanted to show and elaborate to you who this God is. He's the one who has formed us. He has prepared us. And here he's saying uh in the belly, I knew you. I recognized you. And then before you even came out of the womb, he says, I sanctified you. I made you clean. Now, I want to pause here and think about that for a moment. Why would a newborn need to be clean or a baby that hasn't even been born? Because a baby is conceived in sin. You see, Adam and Eve fell in the beginning and Jesus came back to redeem us and he's the one who had to clean us and sanctify us. So God is saying, "Listen, while you were in the womb and I knew you, I I mold before I even molded you. Before I even I determined you. I deter that's a word there in recognized. He determined. He formed. He recognized." Then he says, "I sanctified. I cleaned you." He did that to Jeremiah in order for Jeremiah to be the prophet. And look what else he says. And I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. I've placed you. I've called you to be I've given you to be a prophet over the nations. That's your calling. That's what I put on you. Question I have is what's the calling he put in your life? And and you know what? It's okay. God loves you so much that even if you didn't do what he called you to do or be, he knew. And he's just been waiting for you to come see him and talk to him. He knew it already while you were in the belly of your mother. He knew that already. He's just waiting for you to come to him. humble yourself and ask him to forgive you. By the way, he will he will always forgive you. And don't get tripped up about, oh well, there's the uh the son of predition that won't or not the son of predition that there's a sin that is not forgivable. Trust me, that's because that's on the son of predition. That's not on you. You are not the son of predition. You're not Satan. You are not part of that world. And even if you were like dedicated or committed or a curse was placed on your life, God already knew you. He looked at you in the beginning and he saw you already and he knew you. you know, to share a little testimony. My dad and and my husband and I were out to lunch after church this morning, uh, this afternoon, and we were talking about, um, how God has protected our family and kept us, and I remember one time, this is when we were living in Lake Elsenor, California. I remember sitting there, it's 3:00 in the morning, actually. I was laying there and it was 3:00 in the morning and I in California you always keep your windows open pretty much but I had a slider door there for the deck and I'm on the second floor. It is open but I remember laying there and aware that God was there. He was like right outside the window a little ways away but it was like and and I'm not talking just God. I'm saying God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit. I was aware and in my mind to this day it still affects me in a way that he came to me at that point. Didn't have to say anything. I just knew he was there and that how that has impacted my life because I I sit here going, man, I must have got his attention somewhere in the future. Who am I that he came to visit me? But let me tell you something. He already knew. And he wanted me to know that he knew and that he was preparing me for whatever is to come. He's done the same for you. He knows you. He's written a book. Now look at Jeremiah's response. It's it's valid in and it's point on. He says, "Then said I, ah, Lord God, behold, I cannot speak, for I am a child." You know, it's funny. Jesus, he said, "Bring the little ones. Let them be here. If you do not bring the little ones in, then you know, you're not part of God." See, God loves children. God is a family man. Isn't that just incredible? Now your impression of family might not be beautiful because you know depending how you were raised and and whether you were orphaned or whatever has happened to you but God is a family man and then he provides you a family you know when you become a believer you become adopted into God's family which is his chosen nation of Israel and it's the church the body of Christ that is your family and sometimes it's really good and sometimes it's challenging But when you have a relationship with God, the God who formed you, he's the one that has prepared you and you you're at peace about everything. No matter someone, a loved one dies, because you know your father, you know who formed you. You know he has them. As it says in Hebrews 9:27, all are appointed to die once. Well, we're all eventually going to die. We're all going to end up on that other side right here though, right now, knowing that he formed us. What's the most important part? Share his word. Share our testimony. Share our lives. Let the people see that we have a peace upon us simply because we know he formed us. We know he has called us. That is the most important part of this. Now look at uh what God says to Jeremiah after he says that. Verse 7. But the Lord said unto me, "Say not, I am a child, for thou shalt to go to all that I shall send appoint thee, and whatsoever I command thee, thou shalt speak." And then be not afraid of those of their faces, for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord. He says, I don't want you to be afraid. And don't say that just because you're a youth. He he says very clearly, I'm going to send you. You're going to be a voice and you're going to speak my words. And then I love how he says, "Don't even be afraid or revere their faces." See, when you're afraid of a bully or you're afraid of what people are going to say, you're giving them more power and authority than they actually have. They don't have that power and authority. So, what it is, you're revering them. You're like, "Oh, look at how much power. Oh, I got to be afraid of them." No, no, no. You need to be afraid of the God who can send them straight to hell for an eternity versus sending you straight to heaven with him as an etern eternity. This is where we have to finally humble ourselves before the Lord and realize I'd rather rever God and be afraid of him than be afraid of anything else in the world. And he's telling Jeremiah this because see Jeremiah is going to go through some hardships. You can go read the book of Jeremiah. You can go find out all the things he had to do and some of it was bad. You that's your homework. You go read that. Take you about I don't know a month maybe to read. The book of Jeremiah is a long book in the Bible. And uh just know that God is with him and God is very clearly saying I am with thee. I'm near thee and I'm going to snatch you away from them. I'm going to deliver you out of them. I want to snatch you away. So Jeremiah still lived to be a lengthy time, but it was a hard life. But God knew this and he had formed him and that's where he was going with him. So he's telling him, "Don't be afraid." Then he continues on in verse 9. Then the Lord put forth his hand and touched my mouth. You see, here is a God who has created everything. He created the universe we're in. He created the the air, our bodies, how to adapt and adjust and live in this world. We're in such a way that if you had so much faith that you can never be sick, you will never be sick. You can live like that. If you believe everything, you know, then you might believe who is telling you you're going to be sick or this or culture tells you, oh, if you go from hot to cold or cold to hot, you're going to get sick. No, you don't have to live like this. See, God gave you the ability to live in healing, to live in peace, no matter what circumstance has taken place. I I do know some people that I sit there and I get mad for them for what they had to go through and they're just like, well, you know, and they they don't even they hardly talk about it or it's uh just a as a casual bygone. That is how God has transformed their lives and he gave them that ability. So here he is doing the same for Jeremiah. He put his he touched his word into his mouth. See Jesus is the author of the word of God. Jesus is the word of God. He's the embodiment of it. So here he says, "Okay, let me touch your lips." He touches Jeremiah's lips. And when he touched his lips, he put his word. He put Jesus into the lips of Jeremiah. So every time Jeremiah spoke the word of God, he was speaking what Jesus was speaking to the nation of Israel and warning them and warning them and warning them because that's what Jeremiah is all about is all the warnings. Don't stray away from God. And they wouldn't believe. And they were stubborn, so stiff necked. But that was how the Israelites were at that time. And God was working with them. He they Jesus spoke his word through Jeremiah. Continuing on, it says, "The Lord said unto me, behold, I have put my words, my cause in your mouth." See now the cause, Jesus cause of salvation, healing, mercy, redemption. He put all that into the mouth of Jeremiah. Says, "I want you to tell these words to the nation of Israel." See, Jesus loves. Jesus is forgiving. He is the merciful, graceful God that there is. And he's telling the nation of Israel through Jeremiah, I want you to repent. Come back to me. Stop following false idols. And this is where Jeremiah became that word and had to go speak that because God called him to do that because he knew him. God formed Jeremiah. God formed Lisa. I'm gonna make her a teacher of the word of God. and I'm going to make her an intercessory prayer warrior. She's going to pray into the situations the name of Jesus. And then you begin to see how God moves. But it's because he formed me. He knew me. And he is doing the same. He has done the same for you. Amen. Continuing on, see this verse 10. God is still talking. See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms. So he Jeremiah is overseeing the kingdoms and the dominions and the powers because he's got the word of Jesus in his mouth and the word of Jesus has always had the kingdoms and dominions. You know Satan lied to him in the 40 days of wilderness when Jesus was fasting. You know the the devil tempted him says listen you bow down to me I will give you all these kingdoms they'll worship you. No, they the devil never has the kingdoms because the saints, Jeremiah being one of them, and if you go read Isaiah 49, we 149, we have the ability to pray over our kings and dominions and cause effective change. One of the reasons why Trump is president now is because of prayer from the church. The church said, "You know what? We see the difference between Kamla and Trump and Lord we are putting this at your throne and we speak the word of God and we pray the word of God over it and what happens Trump got voted in. That's because God already knew the situation. He had already formed Trump. He prepared Trump for this time. He prepared Kamla at for her time at this season. But she has gone a different route. Who knows? She could have been all powerful and could have been the first black American president if she had been a believer in God and God had taken her down that route. But her actions clearly say that she does not support Israel. She So I, you know, don't know if she's an actual believer, but she didn't have that blessing on her. Trump did. But remember, God makes people for and then he makes other things. He made the devil. He formed the light, but he created darkness. That's Isaiah 45:7. You can go read how he did that. So God can do anything and prepare anyone at any time for any of this. Uh to root out. Now listen, this is the authority Jeremiah's given. So he says, "See, I've set this day. I've I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms to root out." That's to tear away, to pull down, to tear down, and to destroy, lose or perish, to throw down, break in pieces, to build, repair, and to plant or fasten. Jeremiah was given that authority. So when he would speak a word, the word of God, Jesus, it would be to tear down, to tear apart, to break into pieces, or to repair, and to plant. You see, that was God's plan for Jeremiah. And this is where we have to realize that he has given us authority as the body of Christ to do the same. Amen. Let's go to Psalm 139. I want you to see something here in u the Psalms. Verse 13. For thou hast possessed my reigns, purchased me is what that means. Thou has covered or fenced in me in my mother's womb. I love that word purchased me. I love that extra translation that could be in there because Jesus is our redeemer and he paid the price for our sins. He has set us apart from the world. And he did it where? In our mother's womb. He covered us. He fenced us in. He put us in there. He's already got us covered. Even though we were conceived in sin, this is what redemption and mercy is about. God who formed us, you know, he could have ended everything and stopped back then and restarted and who knows could have hoped that Adam and Eve wouldn't do it a second time, whatever. But instead, he decided to continue on with it and send his only begotten son to redeem the people and decided to do that because he loves us so much. He wanted to get to know us. He formed us in the womb. Even before we lived our life, even before we made the decision to call on his name, he knew us. This is the God who formed us. Verse 14, I will praise thee, or throw my hands up to thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Marvelous are thy works, and that my soul knoweth right well. You see his word, he put his word in Jeremiah and Jeremiah spoke his word, but he put his word, the name of Jesus. He put Jesus into us in the womb for right to for us to recognize and know right from wrong. We know the difference. This is why we were able to come in and pray and see Trump become the victor over Kamla. We were able to see that because we know right from wrong by the fruit of their actions. I love it how Trump, you know, they just bombed the nuclear plants in Iran. I love it how Trump came out and says, "God, I love you. Thank you." You see, he's putting God first in his life. You can't ask for anything more than that. Now, whatever God ends up doing with Trump and how he uses him, maybe he sets him up for his return, whatever ends up happening there, one thing I know is based on right and wrong, based on what was placed in my heart while I was in my mother's womb, I know that we're in the right right now because of the fruit of what I can see and what the Lord has caused me to know in my heart. Amen. My substance or power was not hid from thee when I was made in secret and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. You see, when you have intimate relations with someone and you get someone pregnant, that's usually in darkness or it's, you know, a very intimate time. It's a very private time. It's enclosed. This is what how it happens normally. But you see, God knew us there. We were still known by God even in that moment. He knew. He knew us because he formed us. He prepared us. He called us. Verse 16. Thine eyes did see my substance. Yet being imperfect, listen, we weren't we were in conceived in sin, we were already imperfect in the womb. And he saw us. And in Jeremiah's case, he called Jeremiah. Oh, look at this. So then he says, "Yet being imperfect, and in thy book all my members were written, described, which in continuence were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them." He didn't even have his members yet. you know, he was conceived and at the point of conception, you're just a little mass, a little, you know, it's an egg and a sperm and it starts to form inside there, but there are no legs, there's no head, there's no brain, there's no eyes, there's nothing yet. You're just a little seed in there. And he says, "And in thy book, all my members were written, described." At the moment of conception, God writes a book about you. It's entitled with your name. He knows your name. He knows whether you're male or female. He knows what your members are going to look like. He's already written your description in there. He knows at this moment when it hasn't even happened. This is the God of whom we serve. This is our God. This is how powerful he is. This is why the grave couldn't hold back Jesus. Oh, hallelujah. And uh which in continuence were fashion when as yet there was none of them. How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, oh God. How great is the sum of them. He thinks about us all the time. We are mindful. He is mindful of us. He thinks of us all the time. They are continuous thoughts that he has and they're good. They're precious. If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand. When I awake, I am still with thee. God doesn't leave us. He's still there. We go to sleep. We go off into dreamland. We go into wherever place we go. Our body needs that rest, but our mind still goes somewhere else. God is with us when we wake up. And his thoughts are good over us. He's got plans and thoughts for us. And all it is is just stopping and saying, "Thank you, Lord." And asking him to lead us. He will take us there. He will open doors. He will close doors. He will protect us. He will because he's the God who formed us. Oh, hallelujah. This is awesome. Then it says here in Matthew 28, look at what Jesus says. Because again, Jesus is the word of God that was placed in Jeremiah. And then Jesus right and wrong is what's placed in our heart. Look at what Jesus says here in Matthew 28. And Jesus came and spake unto them saying, "All power is given unto me in heaven and earth." Jesus has all the power and authority. He's the one who said, "Let there be light." And there was light and it was good. This he's he's the all powerful. He's the power. He's the one who did it. He's the one who made it happen. And it was by spoken word. Says, "Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost." You see, now it's a little different here. He told Jeremiah, "I'm going to put my word in you. what you speak, you're going to tear down, pull around, pull up, uh, break into pieces, repair and build up and plant. That now he says, I want you to go to everyone, teach them, baptize them, teach them to observe all things whatsoever I've commanded you, and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Still, he is with us every day, and he has overcome the world. That is so amazing. In fact, let's read that last scripture there. Verse 33 or John 16:33. These things I have spoken unto you that in me might have peace in the world. You have tribulation, but be of good cheer. I've overcome the world. See, God created this world. Jesus created it all. So, he has placed it his word in our hearts. And he tells you, I want you to do these things and I want you to go do what you need to do. This is what I'm calling you to do. I formed you to do this. And he says, "And don't be afraid of them. I overcame I overcame the world." I love that. That is so awesome. This is the God who formed us. He's the one who has established us. So if you want to know what your will in God is, first seek first the kingdom of God. Matthew uh 6:33, seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you. How do you seek the king seek seek the kingdom of God? You seek him by putting him first in your lives. Have a relationship with him in the morning, in the evening. Read the word. Pray. Ask him questions and look. He will answer you. Then he tells you to go into all the world. That is also letting people know the relationship you have with Jesus because they can have it too because he formed them in the womb just like he formed me and Jeremiah in the womb. Like you, he formed you. He prepared you. And he's telling you to go into all the world and preach the good news. Telling you that I am the good news. I came and redeemed you. I paid the price for your sins. I'm the one who knew you. You know me because you know the right I have placed in you in the womb. This is who I am. This is who you are. Let us partner up together and go show the world the testimony of what I have done for you. This is Jesus calling us into that anointing, into that walk, into that relationship with him so that we can say, "Hey, look what I have. I've got Jesus. Do you want to have peace in your life, too? Let me introduce you to Jesus." He knew you when you were conceived. What? Before you even had a body, he knew what you would look like. And he knows he has good thoughts of you. He thinks wonderful things about you. He is mindful of you. He wants to know everything about your life. What's going on? Where are you going? What are you doing? This is the God who formed you and he placed right in your heart and you can speak his words just like Jeremiah did by taking the scripture, reading it, saying it out lou out out loud and applying it to whatever situation you're in. No weapon formed against us shall prosper. By his stripes I was healed. Let no man take apart what you have brought together. These are just some of the verses that we have that take us to making an effective change with our prayers. Amen. Let's close in a word of prayer. Father God, we thank you for your word and we bless your word. Your word is powerful. Your presence is powerful and we know in our heart what is right and what is wrong. Thank you, Father God, for placing your word in our mouths and helping us to know you because you know us so much more than we know you. And I pray that we begin to have that relationship with you where we know what is right and we can stay away and pray against that wrong that is out there. Father God, thank you for your paying the price and redeeming us and saving us. In the name of Jesus, we pray. Amen. Amen. God bless you. I will see you in the next message. Bye-bye.
