1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:03,560 The word that God gave me is straight from Scripture and that 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,920 is there is a sound of abundance of rain. 3 00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:12,760 There is a sound of abundance of rain. 4 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:15,440 And so that's why I'm here to tell somebody today. 5 00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:19,920 What's if I spoke to tell you that God spoke to me, said the 6 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:22,680 Holy Ghost revival rain is coming. 7 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:27,720 God is sending the rain. Come on, somebody, can you say 8 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,760 Amen? Yeah, God is sending the rain. 9 00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:34,280 The rain is coming. And so I'm hearing it in my 10 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,680 spirit. I'm hearing it before I see it. 11 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,680 And that's what I want to try to stand today, that I hear it 12 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,640 before I see it in the natural. I hear the abundance of rain, 13 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:46,680 the sound of abundance of rain. Hallelujah. 14 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,240 That's what I'm hearing in the story deep in my heart. 15 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,880 And so today is not just a little sermon, it's a prophetic 16 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,360 announcement. This is heaven. 17 00:00:56,360 --> 00:01:00,880 When you tune your years into this is heaven's forecast, this 18 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:05,080 is what God is saying over your life, your family, over this 19 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:09,160 church, over our nation. God is saying the Holy Ghost 20 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,960 rain is coming. The rain is coming. 21 00:01:11,960 --> 00:01:15,800 Can you say it means somebody the revival right is coming? 22 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,640 And so when God says revival right is coming, when abundant 23 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:25,120 right is coming, then nothing can keep the drought in place. 24 00:01:25,320 --> 00:01:28,280 Then in other words, what it means when God says the right is 25 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,400 coming, then the drought is coming to an end. 26 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:33,880 Hallelujah.

I'm sharing something powerful 65 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,680 here because I've seen people over the years, many years 66 00:03:28,920 --> 00:03:32,200 coming to conference and you see some people on the side. 67 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,280 You see the people in participating on getting all the 68 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,680 miracles.

Please, Church, listen. 75 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,800 Listen. You know what the enemy wants to 76 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,920 do. He wants to rob you of your 77 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:07,160 miracle. And how? 78 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:13,280 Her face, You know what? Just before the meeting, just 79 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,040 before things happen, he will try everything to upset you. 80 00:04:17,519 --> 00:04:20,360 I don't care if it's a spouse or a family member or a job 81 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,280 searcher. He'll try everything to upset 82 00:04:22,280 --> 00:04:24,320 you. I've seen this in South Africa 83 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,720 when I was in my first revival meetings. 84 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,240 The prophet of God was in front. I literally was just being 85 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:35,200 placed by 1 Ashley at the front. Then another Ashley comes to me 86 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,960 and start moving me around. I was the only white person 87 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:39,800 there. Then they start moving near, 88 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,880 left, right and centre and people got really upset and the 89 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:47,680 Holy Spirit said to me, these ashes got the enemies using 90 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,680 these ashes, these church people to try and rob me off. 91 00:04:53,840 --> 00:04:56,720 Just before the prophet of God comes on, they started moving 92 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:58,800 him. That's what the enemy, he wants 93 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,520 to create. The visions crashes because the 94 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,040 enemy wants to clog you. That's the only block. 95 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,440 Jesus could know. He could not do miracles. 96 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,280 Why? He's the Son of God, He could 97 00:05:10,280 --> 00:05:13,600 not know because of dishonor. Just before the big blessing 98 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,760 comes, something just wants to try and upset. 99 00:05:17,840 --> 00:05:23,160 Do not get offended now. Do not get upset and angry now. 100 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,960 Keep your heart soft. And so listen. 101 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:34,440 Our nation, this nation has walked through drought, 102 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,880 tryingness and doubt for a very long time. 103 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,960 But like Elijah, we are yet to declare the word of the Lord 104 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,440 that there is a sound of abundance of rain. 105 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:51,560 Somebody say that there is a sound of abundance. 106 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,280 Come on, give God some praise in this place. 107 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:59,560 Hallelujah.

There is the sound of the 153 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,840 abundance of rain. Now what is interesting is when 154 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:50,520 Elijah said that, OK, there was not there's not a cloud in the 155 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,720 sky.

There is no sign of rain. 157 00:08:55,680 --> 00:08:58,920 When he declared there's a sound of rain, OK, it's dry. 158 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:03,000 OK, it's it's hot. OK, there's nothing growing. 159 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,560 It's just a drought. Now maybe you feel like you have 160 00:09:06,560 --> 00:09:12,280 been in a drought. Those seasons are very real 161 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,960 drought seasons. OK, You can be serving, you can 162 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,840 be worshipping, you can be giving. 163 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:19,840 You can do everything you know what to do. 164 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:25,920 But deep inside it feels dry. OK, everything you know it just 165 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,920 there's a dry on the inside. Listen, there's marriage dry 166 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,680 droughts, OK? There's emotional droughts, 167 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:37,520 there's financial droughts. There's even dream drought. 168 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:43,440 OK, it's a season. And so we you just don't feel 169 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,800 excited about anything anymore. You just feel this dullness. 170 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:55,840 Islam was in a severe drought, dry, hopeless, discouraged, 171 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,520 stuck. And in that dryness, God sends 172 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:04,680 his word through prophet Elijah. And just like Elijah, God has 173 00:10:04,680 --> 00:10:07,040 seen each word this morning from me. 174 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:11,920 And I hear in my spirit, I hear the sound of things changing in 175 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,080 your favor. I hear the sound of freedom. 176 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,440 I hear the sound of breakthrough. 177 00:10:17,680 --> 00:10:21,440 I hear the sound of restoration, sound of revival. 178 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,240 Come on somebody. I hear the sound of abundance. 179 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,640 Somebody shout out Hallelujah, Hallelujah. 180 00:10:28,680 --> 00:10:32,880 Come on side out loud, I hear the sound of abundance of rain. 181 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,360 Yeah, yeah. That's what he had a spirit. 182 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,600 Amen. And so Elijah, he goes and he 183 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,720 walks up to King AEA. And so he comes there before him 184 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:45,520 and he says this. Now what he says, my God, this 185 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:49,640 is so contradicting what he says because he says something that 186 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,560 contradict what's going on in the natural. 187 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,920 He says something that is the opposite of what is going on in 188 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,160 the natural. He says opposite of what's going 189 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,440 on, there's a drought. They say something the opposite, 190 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,560 they're in a drought. But he comes and he talks right. 191 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,560 My God. Now that is faith somebody that 192 00:11:07,560 --> 00:11:10,840 is faith in action. That is what faith does. 193 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,560 Faith starts by hearing before it sees it. 194 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,400 That's how faith works. I want I want to just write in 195 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,600 some faith message here today, OK, Because faith comes when you 196 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,760 hear before you see. That's how faith starts by 197 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,440 hearing. I meant with what you hear. 198 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,960 That's five years it before you see it, am I right? 199 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,760 Come on, Romans chapter 10 somebody, are you getting this? 200 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,600 Romans chapter 10, verse 7 to the Bible says that faith comes 201 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,120 by hearing and by hearing the word of God, the word of Christ. 202 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,560 OK, so faith doesn't come when you scroll the news. 203 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,200 Faith doesn't come when you read the negative headlines. 204 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,760 Faith comes when you hear what you hear God says. 205 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:55,000 That's how faith comes. So 5 comes when we hear the word 206 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,160 of God what God is saying. It doesn't come when we read the 207 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,600 negative news headlines. That's not how 5 comes. 208 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:04,640 Now, I've got no problems with scrolling. 209 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,160 I've not been on Facebook for I don't know how long, and I've 210 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,160 got a problem with social media. I'm just saying how 5 comes. 211 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:12,720 Five comes when you hear what God says. 212 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,720 So some of us has been hearing the wrong things for way too 213 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,000 long. You've been listening to the Met 214 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:26,640 Office of your emotions, partly cloudy, high chances of 215 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:33,960 disappointment. Met Office emotions, high chance 216 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:38,440 of disappointment. But more than the Met Office, 217 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,240 there is a higher forecast. There is a heavenly forecast 218 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:47,360 that says it's a different sound that says showers of blessings, 219 00:12:47,680 --> 00:12:53,480 abundant rain, revival rain, Holy Ghost outpouring miracles. 220 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,120 Come on, that's heaven's forecast. 221 00:12:56,120 --> 00:13:01,840 Somebody glory be to God. That's how it vital these days 222 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,480 because God has given all of us spiritual years. 223 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:11,040 That's how we hear from heaven. That's how we hear OK, praise 224 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,400 God, we thank God for the for the the moments and but God 225 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,560 speaks to us in your spirit. That's how God speaks to you. 226 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:19,880 He speaks with his spiritual ears. 227 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:24,360 We hear he speaks and often when God speaks into your spirit, 228 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,520 it's the opposite of what it seems like in the natural 229 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,360 circumstances, what's going on in the nature. 230 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,840 It seems like this is opposite. God is saying this. 231 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,920 I get this in my spirit, but what I see with my finances, my 232 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,480 banking is something I see something different. 233 00:13:37,680 --> 00:13:41,440 But what God is saying. So you may be facing like an 234 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,800 illness or a disease and everything, the natural, the 235 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,240 symptoms, the doctors report says you not getting better. 236 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:53,800 But deep down in your, you keep on hearing you are whole, you 237 00:13:53,800 --> 00:14:00,320 are healthy, you are strong and so on the inside you hear that. 238 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,920 But you may be struggling and your finances and the bank 239 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,240 account doesn't look good and the bulls are just piling up. 240 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:12,040 But deep down in your spirit, you keep on hearing you are 241 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:17,360 blessed, you are prosperous, you have more than enough. 242 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:21,160 And so the reason when God speaks to us, it seems like 243 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,480 contradictory opposite what's going on is because God calls 244 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,840 you what you are, who you are before it shows up. 245 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,760 Come on, somebody you get, you're getting that, OK? 246 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:35,040 That's how he does it. So in sickness, God calls you 247 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,400 healed. OK, in addiction, God calls you 248 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:43,000 free, Baroness, God calls you a parent or mother. 249 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:49,560 OK, and so you feel small, but God, and he calls you mighty. 250 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:58,640 OK, let me give you an example. Abraham had no children when God 251 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,200 called him father of many nations. 252 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,960 So God calls him so at that time when God calls him he had no in 253 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,720 the natural it doesn't make any sense because I had no children. 254 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:14,200 God comes and he calls you father of many nations. 255 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:19,800 Gideon was insecure and afraid. The Bible says that he said I 256 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,600 come from the weakest and God calls him a mighty man. 257 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,240 That's what God he calls him a mighty man of battle. 258 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:34,840 David, teenage shepherd boy, even his own natural father 259 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,160 overlooked him. God calls him a king. 260 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,640 Can you see church while I'm going here? 261 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,520 Because that is where faith comes in. 262 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:47,840 Faith, you have got to choose for what is going on in the 263 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,040 natural, what the symptom says about the seeker, what the 264 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:55,120 doctors report in the OR are you going to choose and agree with 265 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,040 what God says? Which one? 266 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,960 Because that is where faith comes in, because the Bible says 267 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:06,160 so we, we choose by what we hear on the inside rather than what 268 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,000 you see in the natural. OK, come on, the Bible says it, 269 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,240 the Bible. We are people of faith, right? 270 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,360 So people of faith, the Bible says that we live by faith, not 271 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,000 by sight. OK, now we're getting somewhere, 272 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:20,920 right? Because I'm what I'm just saying 273 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,560 is just, I'm just giving you Bible. 274 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:26,760 OK, Now things in the natural, what we can see can change. 275 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,120 The drought, the sickness, the symptoms. 276 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,000 Oh, I feel a bit fluid. That can change. 277 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,960 I wake up with a sore throat. It can change. 278 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,600 So what we see with our natural eye, that's temporary. 279 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,480 It's subject to change. One touch of God's power, one 280 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,760 touch of his fiber, and it can shift just like that. 281 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:50,800 That's it. That's it. 282 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,840 Come on. Hallelujah. 283 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:58,240 So you might feel stuck, you might feel in a drought, you 284 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,200 might feel symptoms, illness, difficult sicknesses. 285 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,680 You might feel overlooked, you might feel forgotten. 286 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:10,280 But if you look and listen, if you listen, deep inside you will 287 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:17,040 hear a different sound. Deep inside you will hear better 288 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,720 Is coming. Something new is coming. 289 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:25,040 Yes, New opportunities, new doors, new friendships, new 290 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,040 relationships are coming. When you year, deep inside 291 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:29,600 you'll hear the new things coming. 292 00:17:30,360 --> 00:17:33,480 You'll hear the sound of abundance of right. 293 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,200 Regardless of the droughts, regardless of the economy, 294 00:17:37,360 --> 00:17:41,400 regardless of what's going on in the politics, in the arena, UK, 295 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,920 wherever. You will hear in your spirit 296 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:48,360 deep down what God is saying. So faith, who is to report? 297 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,000 Will you believe? Hallelujah. 298 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:53,520 Come on. I wish I got somebody here 299 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,040 today. Yes. 300 00:17:56,120 --> 00:17:58,680 So you're getting this. In a drought, God will talk 301 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:02,360 about rain. In lack, God will talk about 302 00:18:02,360 --> 00:18:06,560 abundance. When you feel lonely, God will 303 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,440 talk to you about divine connections. 304 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,840 That's what God does. That's how in your spirit we 305 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,200 deeply hear it. So it's just very, very simple. 306 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,360 Whose report will you believe? Come on. 307 00:18:16,360 --> 00:18:19,160 Whose report will we leave? Yeah, that's it. 308 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,600 So will you believe what's going on in that or will you believe 309 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,040 the report of the Lord? Will you believe what heaven 310 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:25,880 says? We believe the report of the 311 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,000 Lord. We believe the word of God. 312 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:29,600 That's the standard for our lives. 313 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:33,280 We believe what God says. And so like Elijah, I just want 314 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:37,120 to come and announce that I hear the sound of abundance of rain, 315 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,120 revival, rain is coming. That's the word of the Lord. 316 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:45,400 I hear that and it's about God is about to do a new thing in 317 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,040 our lives in the Uki hear that in my spirit. 318 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:52,240 Listen, this is how I just hear it before we see indeed, I want 319 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,360 you to say that. Say somebody say, yeah, I hear 320 00:18:54,360 --> 00:19:00,440 it before I see it. Now, Hosiah 63 says he will come 321 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:05,880 to us like the rain, like the latter and the former rain to 322 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,280 the earth, OK. And so it is just so simple. 323 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,880 We come in an alignment and an agreement with what God says 324 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,880 with the word of God. And when we come in agreement 325 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,440 with what God says that God says he'll come to us like the 326 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:21,600 abundant right, He will pour out his Holy Ghost. 327 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,640 Then we say, yes, get ready, right is coming. 328 00:19:26,360 --> 00:19:29,280 The moment we come in agreement and alignment, I will receive 329 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,680 the word of God. God say, yeah, get ready, get 330 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:32,600 ready. The rain is coming. 331 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:36,280 Somebody shout Hallelujah. Come on, shout it out. 332 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:39,320 The rain is coming. Start it again. 333 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,680 The rain is coming. The rain is coming. 334 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,760 OK, so number one, we hear it before we see it. 335 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,800 Now Elijah didn't just hear it and then just keep it to 336 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,680 himself. He did something with it. 337 00:19:53,440 --> 00:20:00,200 And this brings us to #2 #2 Elijah went straight to the key 338 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:05,160 and he announced. Announce you the King. 339 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,360 There is a sound of the abundance of rain. 340 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:12,960 That is a big key because when you start announcing what God 341 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:17,240 has placed on your heart, it says miracles in motion. 342 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:21,320 When you start announcing what God says what God puts on his on 343 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,760 the Scripture says later redeemed of the Lord say so. 344 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,600 If you want to get well, say so. If you want the breakthrough, 345 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,080 say so. If you want your dream to come 346 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,600 to pass, say so. OK, because when you declare it, 347 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,760 that is when you release it, it says Psalm 68 verse 9, you send 348 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,360 abundant rain. Oh, God, in the natural, the 349 00:20:42,360 --> 00:20:47,040 drought is temporary. It is subject to change. 350 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:51,200 The dry season is not your final chapter. 351 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:55,200 And I believe that God is announcing over you and your 352 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,520 family and over our church and our nation that the rain is 353 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,760 coming. The Holy Ghost rain is coming. 354 00:21:02,120 --> 00:21:07,800 God is announcing a church. I just, yeah, it's so burning in 355 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:08,880 my spirit. I was lifted. 356 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,440 I woke up and God just deep in my spirit, I just the drought is 357 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:16,000 ending.

My drought descending. 360 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:30,800 I felt that when I woke up this morning. 361 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:36,000 It was like boom in my spirit, my drought descending. 362 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:41,280 Now when Pastor Michelle and I got married by the way, the end 363 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,640 of this month on the 26th it's our 19th year wedding 364 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:53,640 anniversary writing this we are celebrating 19 years of being 365 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:59,960 married and I know for more than 20 years more the what a bliss I 366 00:21:59,960 --> 00:22:02,080 feel an anointing on marriages in this family. 367 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,600 What's what God is doing in the leadership. 368 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,040 Follow your leader as I follow Christ. 369 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:12,480 That's a Bible verse. Follow your leader as I follow 370 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,240 Christ. There's a blessing on you when 371 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,760 you follow your leader. Because we have been married for 372 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,160 19. We thank God for his anointing 373 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,520 on marriages. And what I'm about to share with 374 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,440 you right now will take you even to the next level. 375 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:31,480 Because when we got married, we tried to have a baby and we 376 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,560 struggled. We kept on struggling. 377 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:37,000 It was difficult treatment after treatment. 378 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:42,080 It was so difficult for years we kept on disappointment often. 379 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:43,760 Finally doctors said there's no chance. 380 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,040 And I was like, Lord, we are getting older. 381 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,560 And I was thinking this down. My younger brothers, and I'm not 382 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,280 talking about my Peter, my brothers just one year younger 383 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:54,640 than me. Listen, we six children. 384 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,920 I'm talking about my Joshua. He was like way younger than me, 385 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,800 starting having kids. And I'm thinking to myself, I'm 386 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,640 getting old. We are just, I'm not, what am I 387 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,520 going to do? But God spoke to Prophetess 388 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,680 Michelle. He spoke the word and she 389 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,520 received the word and I love what she did. 390 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:17,720 She announced what she heard from the Lord. 391 00:23:18,120 --> 00:23:21,320 Whoa, the Lord spoke to her. The Lord said you're going to 392 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,240 have children in the natural. The doctor said there's 393 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,400 complications, there's problems, you cannot have children, no 394 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,880 ways. She heard what God said. 395 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,400 God said you would have children. 396 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:36,360 And she started the clinic. She's like, listen, we're going 397 00:23:36,360 --> 00:23:38,320 to have a baby. I'm going to, I'm like, what? 398 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,840 This is contradicting what the Medical Sciences says. 399 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:44,520 We're going to have a baby. Not if we have a when we have a 400 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,640 baby. One thing I loved about 401 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,800 Prophetess Michelle, and I've seen this in the beginning when 402 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,520 we just got married and this is in Joburg, how she served in the 403 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:56,440 children's ministry. She's always the first one. 404 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,920 Now we don't have children, but she's staying with the kids. 405 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,680 I always admire that about her, that she would love other 406 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,600 people's kids. She would look after other 407 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,240 people's children. Love it like it's her own. 408 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:11,920 That already starts sowing seeds. 409 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:14,800 I'm preparing for my own. I'm sowing into. 410 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,000 Listen, you want your own ministry. 411 00:24:17,360 --> 00:24:19,760 You want your own. You want to do serve another 412 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,920 man's ministry, serve another man's vision. 413 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,080 Be faithful and serve somebody else. 414 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:29,080 God will give you a sample. Be faithful. 415 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,560 We started in Joburg long ago. Already ushering, serving, 416 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,560 helping, packing, chase, being there, already serving another 417 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,800 Pastor Yuan from Vigor Solid Rock with the miracle ministry 418 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,120 which serves to the pastor. His vision is our vision. 419 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,760 Pastor, what is the vision We're going to do? 420 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:47,640 We follow you like you follow Christ. 421 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:49,680 Simple church. Not difficult. 422 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,440 So then she was already prophesying kids. 423 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,120 Now she was declaring this and still, I mean under color. 424 00:24:58,120 --> 00:24:59,800 I was just honest. I was like, listen, we're 425 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:01,720 getting old. This is not likely, but that 426 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,120 doesn't mean God's done. Even if it in the natural, it 427 00:25:04,120 --> 00:25:06,640 seems we are getting old. OK, God's not done. 428 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,200 And so years and years later after being married for 9 or 429 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,040 like 10 years, OK, finally the doctor said you're pregnant. 430 00:25:13,360 --> 00:25:16,760 Hallelujah. And today we have three healthy 431 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,760 children. Come on, can we give God some 432 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,160 place? Can we give God some Christ in 433 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,480 this place? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 434 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,480 yeah. Now I wonder what would have 435 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:27,800 happened if she would have given up in the Trump. 436 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:32,720 I wonder what would have happened if she did not announce 437 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,200 what she had. I wonder what would have 438 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,200 happened if she just kept to herself God spoke to, but she 439 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,600 just kept quiet. I wonder what would have 440 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,440 happened but she didn't. She kept on announcing what she 441 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:49,200 heard. And I love that about, about how 442 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,080 we she declared it. Listen, when you are announcing, 443 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:54,400 you're not trying to impress people. 444 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:58,000 When we are not, we're not trying to get people's 445 00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,240 agreements here, OK? We're not. 446 00:25:59,360 --> 00:26:02,680 When we announce what we are doing, when you are announcing 447 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,920 what you heard from God, you are showing that God, I believe you. 448 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,920 That's what you do. When you announce what you've 449 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:10,720 heard you say God, I believe you. 450 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:15,760 I believe you. Yeah, I believe you. 451 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:19,520 And so instead of talking about how bad the drought is, how 452 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:23,920 difficult the struggle, OK, start thanking Godfather. 453 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:25,840 I thank you that my baby is coming. 454 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,200 Wake up in the morning. Father, I thank you. 455 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:31,720 You spoke to me. I heard it. 456 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:33,280 I thank you. My baby is coming. 457 00:26:33,360 --> 00:26:35,720 It's on the way. And Lord, I thank you that the 458 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,880 rain is coming. The rain is coming. 459 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,400 My relationship is coming. That right person. 460 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:41,680 That's what I did. I'm like, Lord, I'm going to 461 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:42,840 marry the right person. Please. 462 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,760 Marry the right person, please. I really tried that. 463 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,760 But if you're single, ask God, He'll bring you the right 464 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,080 person. I thank God I married the right 465 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,080 person. I see years later, because if 466 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,000 you marry one person that's going this way and that way, 467 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,360 it's division. If you marry the person with the 468 00:26:57,360 --> 00:26:59,880 same vision, first of all, when we married each other, we're 469 00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:03,240 like, OK, what is your vision? Where are we going so we can go 470 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,240 on the same vision. We're not going to divert. 471 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:07,880 If you marry the wrong person, you're going to divert. 472 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,640 It's just like, it's like division, two separate visions. 473 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,200 You got to have the same vision. That's where there's unity. 474 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:15,920 How could you walk together? If they disagree, don't don't 475 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:17,160 even try and walk if you disagree. 476 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,840 Listen, we've got to have the same vision and we are serving 477 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,560 the Lord. We are serving the Lord. 478 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,400 We are there to win souls, to preach the gospel. 479 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,920 That's the vision. So when we follow the vision, 480 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:31,600 that's where we're going to come together. 481 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,720 And so this is what's happened is because you wake up every 482 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,800 morning and say, thank you, Lord, I hear it, and then we 483 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:40,280 announce it, and then we speak it. 484 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,720 Now here's another key #3 for our Holy Ghost. 485 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:47,600 Downpour abundant rain. We saturate the atmosphere with 486 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:50,480 praise. Now think in the natural how a 487 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:55,440 cloud is formed. Warm, the sun warms up the 488 00:27:55,440 --> 00:28:00,880 water, the water becomes an invisible vapour. 489 00:28:02,120 --> 00:28:05,480 The vapour goes up into the sky and the sky. 490 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:09,600 In the sky, it gathers together the invisible Viper, and it goes 491 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,400 up and it forms clouds. And so the more the clouds comes 492 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:17,120 together, the more the water gathers and it cannot hold it 493 00:28:17,120 --> 00:28:21,120 out anymore and it has to release it in the clouds. 494 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:25,600 You understand what I'm saying? And then it becomes a down pull. 495 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,400 So in other words, the rain starts on the ground. 496 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,960 I mean somebody, yeah, that's where it starts. 497 00:28:34,120 --> 00:28:39,800 And so the amount of water that goes up determines how much rain 498 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,680 comes down by 6 times. OK. 499 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:44,760 This is what what happens when the water goes up. 500 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,800 Now in the same way your price is invisible vapor. 501 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,520 So every day throughout the day when you say thank you, I 502 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,040 praying over the food. Thank you for this food. 503 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,240 Thank you for my home. Thank you for clothes. 504 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,120 Thank you that I don't line ICU with a pipe in my nose that I'm 505 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,200 sitting in church. Thank you every day I'm watching 506 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:01,800 dishes. I'm thanking you, Lord, I'm so 507 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:07,320 grateful you're sending a paper every day driving in the car. 508 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:09,200 Lord, I just want to thank you. You've been so good. 509 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,080 You're sending up gratitude. These little Vipers are 510 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,000 gratitude Vipers. That goes up and what's 511 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,000 happening is all throughout your day with the kids, washing 512 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,280 dishes, driving my car, take them to the school. 513 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,640 Lord, I just want to thank you, Lord, you're absolutely amazing. 514 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:24,560 Thank you. I'm sending more Viper. 515 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,400 And what happens is as you're sending a Viper, it forms a 516 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,520 cloud of the presence of God over your life. 517 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,680 Gee, some people you can just see it's just the presence of 518 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,720 God is around you. It's just over you, the presence 519 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,240 of God. And so if you keep on praising, 520 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:42,960 OK, at a point the rain, it cannot hold it back at some 521 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:49,360 point, OK, that rain of the is going to release promotion, 522 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:53,600 increase blessing, joy, it's going to rain down blessing upon 523 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,400 you. So the more praise you stand up, 524 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,120 the more blessing is coming. Come on. 525 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,200 It's going to rain down restoration, healing. 526 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:01,840 And that is what we say, come on. 527 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:04,800 We say what goes up comes down. What goes. 528 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:06,960 It's a same. We say what goes up will come 529 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:08,880 down, right? Yeah. 530 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:11,960 And so the same with praise. When the praises go up, 531 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,440 blessings come down. That's Come on, somebody here. 532 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,640 We love to say it right away. Prices goes up, blessings come 533 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,280 down. It's not a little cute phrase. 534 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,560 This is a powerful spiritual principle. 535 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:33,920 No praise, no rain. Oh, Gee, it's a principle in the 536 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:40,440 word of God. Limited praise, limited rain. 537 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:43,920 Try 20% praise. Maybe one day. 538 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:48,760 Then that's the 20% rate we get. Occasional praise, occasional 539 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:52,880 rate. Abundant praise produces 540 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:56,360 abundant rain. It's the spiritual principle in 541 00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,120 the word of God.

You want joy? 566 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:17,080 Come on. Send up some joy. 567 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:18,680 Praise. Send up some thanks. 568 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:20,480 Open your lips. Open your mouth. 569 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:21,680 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Thank you, Lord. 570 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,360 Thank you, Lord. Thank you. 571 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,040 Thank you. I mean, you may be seated. 572 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,800 You see, some people only sing some praise on a Sunday. 573 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,680 One day we send praise on a Sunday. 574 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,320 I went to church. I sang 3 songs, sat through the 575 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,760 sermon. Oh, and I missed football, half 576 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,600 of football, rugby. I missed half the Grand Prix. 577 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:51,400 I missed my favorite soap opera. I missed the football. 578 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:58,600 Yeah, You see, sending a praise on a Sunday. 579 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,200 Now that's good because God sees that. 580 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:04,360 And this is a it's a principle. So you want to, you want the 581 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,160 blessings and the joy and the goodness of God and you want a 582 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,520 little bit of a smile on your face and really enjoy life 583 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:13,080 praising. I'm telling you now, I'm telling 584 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:16,880 you now, you want to break the pressure and heaviness, OK? 585 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,480 The first thing you do, you get in your car or wherever you are, 586 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,480 you just thank and praise the Lord. 587 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:27,520 You break off that heaviness of your simple principle. 588 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,640 But somehow over the years I've seen it so difficult for some 589 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:31,800 people. They cannot even raise their 590 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:33,040 hand. They cannot even clap. 591 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:36,160 They can clap for football. Oh, I've seen them at Loftus. 592 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:37,360 First of all, listen, I've seen them. 593 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:42,480 I've seen them in the sports stadiums, they cut loose and 594 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:46,200 they clap hands for they favorite sports team, whether 595 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,840 it's now football or whatever they can for the Springboks, 596 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,960 they can check. When we come into church, it's 597 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:57,440 like, let's double down, OK? It's really an insult to to God 598 00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,440 Almighty. I played rugby. 599 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,240 I know what sports is. I know what it is to get 600 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:02,560 excited. I'm not against that. 601 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:06,000 But my God, my, the Springboks will not come before God. 602 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:08,480 I will not. I refuse you. 603 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:13,120 We come to pubs and places and and it's very quick to clap 604 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,920 hands and rejoice and cut loose on dance floors. 605 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:17,960 Oh boy. But we come in church. 606 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,639 Oh, now we have to put some form of a religious spirit. 607 00:34:21,199 --> 00:34:22,600 Please. That's a Pharisee. 608 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,960 That's a hypocrite. I've done with Pharisees. 609 00:34:26,199 --> 00:34:29,159 I've done with Pharisees. Modern day Pharisees. 610 00:34:29,199 --> 00:34:32,480 You know who they are? They pretend that's a Pharisee. 611 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:34,760 They pretend behind, behind the mosque. 612 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,120 You can't fool me. You can't fool Prophetess 613 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:38,080 Michelle. We know you. 614 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:44,960 We know you, we know you in the spirit, we know who you are, we 615 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:49,280 know who you are. And so we cannot, I mean, if you 616 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,159 just only your only time you price is on a Monday, listen, 617 00:34:52,159 --> 00:34:56,320 your cloud is going to be empty on a Monday afternoon, OK? 618 00:34:56,639 --> 00:34:58,680 So that's why we need everyday price. 619 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,720 We need Monday, we need Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, 620 00:35:01,720 --> 00:35:03,800 Saturday. We need everyday, but we need 621 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:07,320 stuck in the traffic price we need when we're cleaning. 622 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,440 We need praise every day where we are. 623 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,320 Midnight praise everywhere. But we need to keep on sending 624 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:14,120 our praise, sending up those vapours. 625 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,800 OK, so your cloud falls out more and more because the more you 626 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,560 praise, the more rain you make. Simple. 627 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,720 And so if you will sow to the heavens, the heavens will sow to 628 00:35:24,720 --> 00:35:28,720 you. This is a very basic principle. 629 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:33,280 Second Corinthians Chapter 9, verse 6, it says that if you sow 630 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,720 sparingly to the heavens, you're going to reap sparingly. 631 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:37,640 If you sow little, you can reap little. 632 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:39,840 If you sow generously, you're going to reap generously. 633 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,280 And so how much are we sowing in our praise? 634 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:47,960 And could it be that some of us in drought in a difficult 635 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:52,400 situation, in a situation where you feel stuck not because God's 636 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,040 unwilling because nothing's going on. 637 00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:00,120 Could it be because nothing is going on And if we would begin 638 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:04,040 to just thank God more every day where we go thank God talk about 639 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:07,440 his goodness talk about our great God is brag about wow God 640 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:09,160 is amazing. God your Moses on you every 641 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:11,080 morning. Everywhere we go, we just keep 642 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,480 on thanking God. Would it be that God would pour 643 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,000 out more of his favour? Yes. 644 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:21,160 And so Psalm 22 says that God inhabits the prizes of his 645 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:23,200 people. Amen. 646 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,520 And surprise is powerful. Come on, let's keep one more 647 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:27,440 prize break. Come on. 648 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,320 Top your hands. Come on. 649 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:30,240 Sing up. Surprise. 650 00:36:30,240 --> 00:36:32,040 Prize, prize, prize. Come on. 651 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:37,480 Give him surprise. Turn off. 652 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:41,000 Praise. Praise Jesus. 653 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:44,600 Praise Jesus. Praise Jesus. 654 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,880 Yeah, now I love that because that is better. 655 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:51,880 OK, come on, Let's just be honest. 656 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,960 That's better than a football goal or a rugby try. 657 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:56,600 That that was better than a rugby try. 658 00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:58,200 OK, The spring marks just scored. 659 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,040 OK. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 660 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:07,800 Jesus won. Are you going to have Mike Tyson 661 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:11,240 his boxing or get on a Jesus snitch in the ring and he starts 662 00:37:11,240 --> 00:37:12,720 punching the devil and he closes. 663 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:18,400 Yeah. Come on. 664 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,360 Listen, some of my sister need to cut loose in church. 665 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:23,920 Yeah. Not just in the pups in the 666 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:26,520 bottle and in the church. Yeah, maybe seated. 667 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,440 I mean. So let's move to the next one. 668 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,520 Also starting with AP. So that was praise. 669 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:35,200 Now it's preparation. So there's another picture of 670 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:38,680 the abundant rain. Holy Ghost down. 671 00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:42,800 Paul in second Kings chapter 3 again. 672 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:46,080 God's people. Yeah, they were in a drought, 673 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:51,320 but yeah, they're in a valley. And so there is, it's dry, there 674 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:54,280 is no rain. And the word of the Lord, Yeah. 675 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,120 So it's very hopeless. And the prophet told them a very 676 00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:00,240 strange instruction. He says dig ditches in the 677 00:38:00,240 --> 00:38:02,120 valley. He's like, but in the natural, 678 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,600 why dig ditches in the valley? Because there's no rain, It's 679 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,640 dry. I mean, could go start digging 680 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:08,040 trenches that nothing grows there. 681 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,240 It's all dry. It just doesn't make sense in 682 00:38:10,240 --> 00:38:12,080 the natural. But the wood of the all came. 683 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,800 And he says, listen, just go ahead and do it anyway. 684 00:38:15,240 --> 00:38:19,360 Go and prepare. And the very next day God sends 685 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,040 water. He sends flash floods, 686 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:25,840 supernatural and all those beaches that they, all those 687 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:32,600 trenches were all filled with water and the drought ended 688 00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:34,480 right there. It's all water. 689 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:36,960 The drought ended. Why? 690 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:41,000 Because God falls. What you prepared? 691 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:46,680 Come on, God falls. God fools what you prepare. 692 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,240 What are we preparing? And God fools it. 693 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:57,080 He pours into we, we make room. We make room for OK, so if 694 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,480 there's no ditches, we did not do any ditches. 695 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:03,160 It could not hold the water. The water would have gone right 696 00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:05,320 for it would not have hold the water. 697 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:09,440 So if there's no capacity, if there's a, then there's no 698 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:15,880 abundance. And so digging ditches, it 699 00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:19,160 simply means that we are making time for God. 700 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:26,120 And so we prioritize God's not number 567 on my list. 701 00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:33,360 God is my #1 And so we prioritize our attention, our 702 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:36,200 affection, our obedience. We make time for God. 703 00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:39,320 We put God first. And so right now, as a church, 704 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:42,120 we are preparing our hearts. We're getting our hearts ready 705 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,800 for revival Reign. We are preparing. 706 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,560 We are saying God, we are putting you first. 707 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,480 We are getting ourselves ready. And so we are not just going to 708 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:51,520 sit on the sidelines spectators, but we're going to be 709 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:55,640 participants. And so let me tell you about a 710 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:59,280 powerful testimony about a young girl, Sarah Rector. 711 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:04,280 Now, Sarah grew up in Oklahoma in the early 1900s, and we saw 712 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:09,120 the clip earlier on about how land was given to her. 168 years 713 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:12,480 land, just worthless land. I mean, it's dry, rocky, just 714 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:14,280 useless ground. There's nothing growing there. 715 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:20,480 And so she had a very young age, had that land, her dad gave it. 716 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:24,200 And so he was struggling. He could hardly pay the taxes. 717 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:27,280 And so he leased it out to a oil company. 718 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:29,760 And he thought it's just more of a burden than a blessing. 719 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:36,160 But The thing is that God, he knew what was under the surface. 720 00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:39,920 And so Sarah would go, and I love this about Sarah is she 721 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:43,520 would lie down on the ground with her ear to the ground and 722 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:47,520 she she's listening and she would go on the ground, put her 723 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:48,960 ear. And so she's praying and 724 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:51,520 listening. And it makes me think of like 725 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,360 Elijah when he was on Mount Carmel, when he bowed down, put 726 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:56,920 his face down, prayer and listening for rain. 727 00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,280 Remember the story. And so yes, she's she's praying 728 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:04,080 and she's listening. And so she didn't see anything 729 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:09,000 yet, but something in her. I believe in 1913 everything 730 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:15,640 changed. The oil digger, they struck oil 731 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,400 not talking a little treacle. I'm talking about a gusher. 732 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:24,160 This is barrel, thousands of barrels per day years, an 11 733 00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:29,400 year old girl struggling, becoming one of the younger, the 734 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:33,320 most wealthiest young person in all of America. 735 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:40,480 And so we looked at that and it looked like empty land. 736 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:44,280 It looked like worthless land, but sitting on it was a river of 737 00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:46,960 will. And So what people had written 738 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:48,440 off, God had written on abundance. 739 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:52,920 Now, of course, opposition came. And so the greedy people tried 740 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:55,640 to control her money. The system was against her. 741 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,440 But Sarah protected what God gave her. 742 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:00,000 She held on to what God gave her. 743 00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:05,480 And so she she invested in her family, She invested the chip, 744 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,880 and she pulled a legacy that still inspires people to die. 745 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,680 They made a movie, a motion picture movie of that. 746 00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:14,480 Come on, let's give God surprise somebody. 747 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:19,440 Yes, Hallelujah. And that's what it means that I 748 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:24,240 hear the sound of the abundance of rain in dry places. 749 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:29,360 Some of you are standing on Sarah Rector ground right now. 750 00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:33,040 Now it might look in the natural small and stuck and difficult 751 00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:38,440 situation in the natural, but if God could cause on Sarah 752 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:42,480 Rector's land, dry land, if you could cause oil to bubble up and 753 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:46,560 spring up. God can send rain in on you, in 754 00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:49,240 your family, in your life, in your finance, your 755 00:42:49,240 --> 00:42:53,800 relationships, your how God can release abundant rain and 756 00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:58,080 outpouring of the Holy Ghost upon your life and your family 757 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,560 and our nation. Somebody shout Hallelujah. 758 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:06,800 Yeah, yes, sometimes you may feel stuck and difficult, but 759 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:11,000 listen, God has got wells. God has got abundant rain that 760 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:15,840 you don't see yet. Prey on the land, listen on the 761 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:19,520 land, serve on the land, give on the land. 762 00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:23,640 Sarah Duck, teachers of prayer and listening. 763 00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:27,840 And so and so that breakthrough came gushing through. 764 00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:31,240 And if God can do that for a young girl, he can do it for 765 00:43:31,240 --> 00:43:32,440 you. So just get ready. 766 00:43:32,720 --> 00:43:35,600 I can just hear that world bubbling up in your life. 767 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:39,560 Come on somebody, I can hear it well, I can hear revival reign. 768 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:42,160 I can hear that somebody shout Hallelujah. 769 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:47,400 Now let me give you king #5 for abundant rain, Holy Ghost, 770 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:53,360 downpour, persistent prayer again, PEP, back to first Kings 771 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,120 18. Now, Elijah, after he announced 772 00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:59,840 the rain to the king, he went to Mount Carmel. 773 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:05,080 He bowed down, put his face in his knees, praying. 774 00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:08,960 And so he told the servant, OK, you go. 775 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,320 And then the servant came. I was like, there's nothing, 776 00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:15,600 there's nothing there now, Elijah. 777 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:17,680 He didn't say, Oh well, I missed it. 778 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:21,960 I gave up. He kept on saying come again. 779 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:27,320 The second song, the servant comes back, there's nothing, 780 00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:29,480 nothing there now. How many times? 781 00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:32,120 He kept on going. Three times the servant came on 782 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:35,080 saying nothing. Four times, nothing there stuff. 783 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:43,280 Elijah kept on saying go again, go again, 5 * 6 times, nothing. 784 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:51,840 Stop at six, too many believers, Stop at six, too many believers, 785 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:59,240 they give up one, pray to only don't stop at six. 786 00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:05,280 Because what happened he said go again and on the 7th time, oh 787 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:09,120 boy, even though it was just a small call, my God don't despise 788 00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:12,080 small beginnings, even small emails, small phone call, small 789 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:15,320 something that is a break. That's persistent prayer. 790 00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:23,240 Jesus told a parable in Luke 18. He says Jesus told his disciples 791 00:45:23,240 --> 00:45:27,680 of parable to show them that they should always pray and not 792 00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:31,600 give up. Colossians 42. 793 00:45:32,240 --> 00:45:36,080 Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. 794 00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:45,120 Zechariah 10 And I just want to tell you it's probably one of 795 00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:47,080 the strongest keys. If you look at the prophetic, if 796 00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:51,120 you look at Elijah, it's probably one of the strongest 797 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,800 revelations in the life of prophet Elijah. 798 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:58,360 And I can also say that's one of the strongest revelations in my 799 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:03,400 life. It's a spirit of prayer. 800 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:09,080 And so I don't pray out of routine or out of a religious 801 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,360 law. I'm praying out of a revelation. 802 00:46:12,240 --> 00:46:14,760 So last night, so for hours, I've been in prayer. 803 00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:16,920 So as you know, that's what I do. 804 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:23,160 I'm interceding and I'm praying through a spirit of prayer. 805 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:27,920 And so I get the breakthrough last night on a Saturday night 806 00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:30,080 where some people watch movies. And nothing against watching 807 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:32,920 movies and entertainment. I just want you to be thankful 808 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:35,560 that you don't have a pastor sitting on a golf course, OK? 809 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:39,200 OK, come on. I'm just saying to you, Jesus 810 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:41,640 gets all the glory, but you have got a pray. 811 00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:46,120 You have got a praying pastor that is watching over your soul, 812 00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:51,360 OK, Because we've got a very a devilish, ugly devil that wants 813 00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:53,840 to kill and murder and steal, kill and destroy every single 814 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:57,240 one of us. But we fight him in prayer. 815 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:02,640 Elijah is fighting and contending for a revival for the 816 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:07,720 entire nation on his knees. That's where we contend and get 817 00:47:07,720 --> 00:47:11,720 the victory on our knees. And he says in Zechariah 10 818 00:47:11,720 --> 00:47:14,800 verse one, ask the Lord for rain in the time of latter rain. 819 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,320 The Lord will make flashing clouds and it will give them 820 00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:20,440 showers of rain. So too many believers quit at 821 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:22,920 six. They give up too soon. 822 00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:24,640 Don't stop at six. Don't quit. 823 00:47:24,720 --> 00:47:27,200 The word of the Lord to die for you is go again. 824 00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:30,360 Go again. Your 7th is coming. 825 00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:33,440 Your 7th and I'm, I'm going to extend this to you in a moment. 826 00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:35,560 You can understand this because your 7th is coming. 827 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:38,360 I really believe there's an anointing on this today that 828 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:41,960 your 7th is coming because that's what happened for us last 829 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:43,280 year. Now watch this. 830 00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:45,600 I just want you to say this. 7 is coming. 831 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:47,160 Tell your neighbors, say 7 is coming. 832 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:50,920 OK, 7 is coming. OK, so then the rain finally 833 00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:53,000 breakthrough and this is where the shift happens. 834 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,680 OK, Now it happened. In the meantime, the sky became 835 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:59,320 black with clouds and winds and there was a heavy rain. 836 00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:02,560 So finally, just when the abundance of rain fell, 837 00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:06,120 everything shifted. Everything changed, OK? 838 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:09,280 Things that were stuck for a long time, for many years, all 839 00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:11,560 of a sudden keep it will be. It's just moving. 840 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:16,000 And so things that were dead and lifeless suddenly coming alive. 841 00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:18,800 OK, so there was a that's with abundant rain. 842 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:22,000 What happens when it's OK? Things cannot just stay the 843 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:25,520 same, OK? Just when the rain comes, the 844 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:28,800 revival rain, the abundant outpouring of the Holy Spirit, 845 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:35,360 things do not stay the same. That's why I said for the United 846 00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:38,280 Kingdom of our nation, things will not stay the same When 847 00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:40,640 there's a Holy Ghost outpouring, things shift. 848 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,760 Things change when the rain comes and what happens, I've 849 00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:46,480 seen some, what happens is things shift, but they shift 850 00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:49,960 very quickly. So there might be a time for a 851 00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:52,640 Joseph where there's character, but then the moment comes when 852 00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:55,000 there's a shift. And he's been promoted like that 853 00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:57,440 very quickly. And it says here in the book of 854 00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:01,080 Isaiah, it says in Isaiah 60, I am the Lord in its time. 855 00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:04,200 I will accomplish it quickly. So then it will, then it will be 856 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:08,080 a quick word because God has got his moments ordained for favour 857 00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:11,000 that things will move and it will move fast because God will 858 00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:13,480 move fast and he'll be very, very quick. 859 00:49:13,720 --> 00:49:17,000 And that is not luck. It's like all of a sudden, you 860 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:19,000 know, he's promoted to being Prime Minister because Joseph 861 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:22,480 was literally beat from prison, like to palace. 862 00:49:22,720 --> 00:49:24,880 But that's not like that is God that moves fast. 863 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:28,640 It's God that steps in with his favour and he brings promotion. 864 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:32,840 Now this brings us to number six for an abundant rain, Holy Ghost 865 00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:34,720 downpour. It releases the power of 866 00:49:34,720 --> 00:49:40,000 acceleration and it says here, OK, I didn't put that one on. 867 00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:44,360 I'll read it to you. It says the power of the Lord 868 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:47,960 came on Elijah. Now let's just think about oh, 869 00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:51,480 and it says that he put his cloak, his belt, he ran ahead of 870 00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:55,800 AAP all the way to Jeshara. OK, AAP is in the royal chariot. 871 00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:59,000 He's got horses, the finest horses of the land. 872 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:00,760 OK, He's moving at maximum speed. 873 00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:04,440 Yes, Elijah, he's on his, he's on his feet, OK? 874 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:07,320 And he had brands the chariot with the horses. 875 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:09,760 That is key. That's quick. 876 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:12,400 That's fast. And it's not because Elijah is 877 00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:15,840 fast, because the Bible says the power of God came on him. 878 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:21,520 When abundant rain touches your life, it releases supernatural 879 00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:25,520 speed in your career. Promotion comes all of a sudden 880 00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:28,960 in your family, people get saved, miracle starts speeding 881 00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:32,360 up, finances get placed and multiplication takes place. 882 00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:34,520 And there is increase. When there is abundant 883 00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:36,880 outpouring of rain, things speed up. 884 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:40,880 And we see this year with the profit after he's it containing 885 00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:45,880 playing 6 * 7 times, walk out. All of a sudden there it is, the 886 00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:49,080 breakthrough and it's fast, it's speedy. 887 00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:51,600 Oh my goodness, I feel the anointing in this place. 888 00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:56,080 Because when God says it is your time, you don't just move by the 889 00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:58,560 world space. When God says it is your time, 890 00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:03,080 you move with heaven space. Oh yes, you accelerate with 891 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:07,000 speed all Hallelujah. And this is your season of 892 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:11,480 acceleration and speed. God is about to redeem the time. 893 00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:16,040 He's about to move you fast and shift you Fast forward, 894 00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:18,800 Hallelujah. And so, yes, Ryan, the abundant, 895 00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:21,680 it changed the pace. That's what revival rate does. 896 00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:25,560 It changed the pace. OK, sometimes God, yes, he takes 897 00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:28,320 little by little and there's time for growth and for 898 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:31,440 character building step by step. But that's not the only way he 899 00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:33,400 works. There's times when he he moves 900 00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:36,320 fast.
