Judges 9:7-16 The Parable of the Trees
7 Now when they told Jotham, he went and stood on top of Mount Gerizim, and lifted his voice and cried out. And he said to them:
“Listen to me, you men of Shechem, That God may listen to
you!
Judges 9:7-16 The Parable of the Trees
8 “The trees once went forth to anoint a king over them. And they said to the olive tree, ‘Reign over us! ’ 9 But the olive tree said to
them, ‘Should I cease giving my oil, With which they honor God and
men,And go to sway over trees? ’
Judges 9:7-16 The Parable of the Trees
10 “Then the trees said to the fig tree, ‘You come and reign
over us! ’11 But the fig tree said to them, ‘Should I cease my
sweetness and my good fruit, And go to sway over trees? ’
Judges 9:7-16 The Parable of the Trees
12 “Then the trees said to the vine, ‘You come and reign over us! ’ 13
But the vine said to them, ‘Should I cease my new wine, Which
cheers both God and men, And go to sway over trees? ’
Judges 9:7-16 The Parable of the Trees
14 “Then all the trees said to the bramble, ‘You come and reign over us! ’ 15 And the bramble said to the trees, ‘If in truth you anoint me as king over you, Then come and take shelter in my shade;
But if not, let fire come out of the bramble And devour the cedars of
Lebanon! ’
Judges 9:7-16 The Parable of the Trees
16 “Now therefore, if you have acted in truth and sincerity in making Abimelech king, and if
you have dealt well with Jerubbaal and his house, and
have done to him as he deserves—
For all intents and purposes
Trees in scripture usually refers to
people
"I see Men as trees" Jesus healing
patient
But our focus today is Wine but Wine
comes from Trees
For all intents and purposes Psalms 1:1-3
1 Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor
sits in the seat of the scornful; 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord,
And in His law he meditates day and night.
For all intents and purposes Psalms 1:1-3
3 He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of
water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever
he does shall prosper
New Wine Not Just Wine!
I wanted you to see that wine comes
from trees.
We are trees and must produce wine
for God and Men
God wants wine, Men need wine!
New Wine Not Just Wine!
The Bible here says it cheers them
Who in our nation does not need
cheering?
Even God scripture says is cheered by
wine
New Wine Not Just Wine!
Cheered here is
1. A: To instill with hope or
courage
b: To make Glad Or happy
It lifts you up and makes you a different person
Water Turned to Wine
John 2:1-12
1 On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and
the mother of Jesus was there. 2 Now both Jesus and His disciples
were invited to the wedding.
Water Turned to Wine
John 2:1-12
3 And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him,
“They have no wine.” 4 Jesus said to her, “ Woman, what does your
concern have to do with Me? My hour has not yet come.”
Woman!
This was an expression that was common at that time in history,
Jesus was not angry or upset nor was he being rude remember he said the same thing in John
19:25-27 he had responsibility as the
first born
Behold Your Mother
John 19:25-27
25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus His mother, and His mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Jesus therefore saw His
mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing by, He said to His mother, “ Woman, behold your son!” 27 Then He said to the disciple, “ Behold your mother!” And from that hour that
disciple took her to his own home.)
Water Turned to Wine
John 2:1-12
5 His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to
you, do it.” ( notice His Mother ignored him, but whatever he says do!) We are not Christians by what we don't do but are
Christians by what we do!)
Water Turned to Wine
John 2:1-12
6 Now there were set there six waterpots of stone, according to
the manner of purification of the Jews, containing twenty or thirty
gallons apiece
Biblical Numerology & Typology
Six water pots because 6 is the number
associated with man!
( manner of purification of the. Jews for new wine
cannot be in old wineskin)
(notice the had a deposit twenty or thirty gallons a piece, and so must we, a
well of water springing up to everlasting life.
We All Start With A Deposit
John 4:14
But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall
never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into
everlasting life.)
Water Turned to Wine
John 2:1-12
7 Jesus said to them, “ Fill the waterpots with water.” And they filled them up to the brim.
What's Water in Scripture
In Ephesians 5:26, concerning the church we read, "That he
might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of
water by the word."
What's Water in Scripture
The Psalmist in Psalm 119:9 writes "Wherewithal shall a
young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.

John 4:14
But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never
thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life
What's Water in Scripture
John 7:38-39
He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly
shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that
believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given: because that Jesus was not yet
glorified.)
Notice it's Fill not just put!
The infilling of the Holy Spirit is not just
a one time event but it is an ongoing experience.
Ephesians 5:18b - be filled with the Spirit. “be being filled” or
“keep on being filled.” (present tense) Ephesians 5:18 can be
understood to mean “be continually filled by the Spirit.” (passive voice)
Water Turned to Wine
John 2:1-12
8 And He said to them, “ Draw some out now, and
take it to the master of the feast.” And they took it.
Draw it out NOW!
Notice it's draw some now, not just draw some
it's the difference between Rhema & Logos, " the letter
kills but the spirit gives life!
The Spirit Gives Life
2 Corinthians 3:6
Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit:
for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
Faith is always Now!
Hebrews 11:1
1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things
not seen.
There is timing to what God does!
Fill yourself with the Word, listen for His command and what comes out of
you will be wine for God and for men!
Worship and incense to God
There is timing to what God does!
Luke 5:5
And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the
night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I
will let down the net.
There is timing to what God does!
Most of us feed on Gods word
when we have a Message to give
or a prayer meeting to lead
then we study or read God's Word
There is timing to what God does!
But we are to constantly be filling ourselves with the
word of God waiting for that appropriate moment for God to draw from us the
water we have been filled with by his
servants
This is what makes us fruitful
John 15:7
If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall
ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you
Everyday you do not sow or invest in your life you create many days in
your future without a harvest!

In your business and studies when you
don't grow.
Learning new developments and
technology that have been developed and keeping abreast of
the knowledge.
True in Business & Life
Every day you are setting your self up

The same is true in marriage and relationships
The more you know about marriage and human

True in Business & Life
1 Peter 3:7
Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving
honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs
together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.

Hosea 4:6
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou
hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy
God, I will also forget thy children.

John 2:1-12
9 When the master of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast
called the bridegroom.
Water Turned to Wine
John 2:1-12
10 And he said to him, “Every man at the beginning sets out the good wine, and when the guests have
well drunk, then the inferior. You have kept the good wine until now!”
God's ways are not man's ways
We belong to a different mind set
We get better with time and age because the
inward man is renewed everyday The world
doesn't get better as we do
Let God do His own part, you do yours
Everyday we are in the process of becoming
John 1:14
14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we
beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,
full of grace and truth.

SIN TRANSGRESSION AND INIQUITY
Exodus 34 v7
And the LORD passed before him and proclaimed, “The LORD, the LORD God, merciful and gracious,
longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth,
keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and the children’s children to the
third and the fourth generation.”
Sin
Sin — "The voluntary departure of a moral agent from a known rule of rectitude or duty, prescribed by God; any voluntary transgression of the
divine law, or violation of a divine command.
Transgression
Hebrew meaning of Transgression: 1) A
willful deviation from, and therefore rebellion
against, the path of godly living.
Greek meaning of Trans-gression: To go beyond
Overstepping the limits.
Iniquity
Hebrew Meaning of Iniq-uity: Perverseness, bowed
down, twisted, to be bent or crooked, to be wrung out of
course.
“It signifies not merely that which is wrong, but
the tendency to do wrong. Iniquities are second
nature sins, which drive us to repeatedly, continu-
ally commit sin.
Consequences
A perversion of the truth, which leads to error. A perversion of intents, which affects our will.
Sin and Transgression are Verbs and things we do: Iniquity is the bent
condition of what we are.
Iniquity revolves more about the underlying attitudes: Idolatry,
Racism, Gluttony, Covetousness, Unrighteousness, wickedness, law-
lessness.
Consequences
Strong’s Dictionary: H5771 (Iniquity): per-versity, that is, (moral)
evil: Thus sin, when repeated against the
knowledge of God, becomes transgression which, if it continues
long enough, eventually becomes iniquity which
perverts the flesh.
Consequences
This perversion changes the DNA/RNA structure of
the “flesh” and “beliefs” or “atti-
tudes” resulting in genetic changes
that are passed on from generation to
generation.
Consequences
This is the way high blood pressure, alco-
holism, sexual perver-sions, jealousy, anger,
fear, etc. are passed down from generation
to generation.
Racism, Greed, Idola-try run in families.

Exodus 12:40-42
