1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:03,480
Let's give that to the Lord. 
Come on. 

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:07,440
He's worthy. 
He is worthy. 

3
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:17,400
He is worthy. 
Hallelujah. 

4
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:20,360
It's good to be in the presence 
of God. 

5
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,600
Amen. 
Good to be in the presence of 

6
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,520
God. 
It's good to be here with you. 

7
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:32,640
Give great honor to brother and 
Sister McGee and of course elder

8
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:37,760
Brother McGee. 
We honor this family and I tell 

9
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:42,920
you what, if I was as talented 
as the Mcgee's and Masons, I 

10
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:44,280
wouldn't have to be so good 
looking. 

11
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:51,040
Easy, easy laughing there and 
I'm just kidding, but what a 

12
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,760
blessing it is. 
I I want to compliment you on 

13
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,560
something the Lord has has 
blessed me to travel a lot of 

14
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:03,320
places just like your pastor and
I want to compliment the 

15
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:09,360
authenticity of your worship, 
the authenticity of your worship

16
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,280
team. 
That's not everywhere there. 

17
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:18,160
There may be somewhere that has 
more instruments or more volume 

18
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:24,760
or whatever, but there was a a 
sweetness that appointed that 

19
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,160
worship today. 
But I don't think we need to 

20
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,040
take lightly. 
And this is just what we do 

21
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:35,000
here. 
This is anointed authenticity I 

22
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:36,560
think. 
We ought to just thank the Lord 

23
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:41,160
for. 
It thank you, Jesus. 

24
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:51,120
Thank you Jesus. 
Hallelujah. 

25
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:58,120
Thank you Jesus. 
Thank you Jesus. 

26
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,440
Thank you Jesus. 
I I'll, I'll get to preach in a 

27
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,840
moment, but I do want to say 
sincerely that I honor brother 

28
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:10,000
and sister McGee so much, and 
it's interesting to. 

29
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,960
Sort of grow. 
Up in the same district and tend

30
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,680
a lot of functions, but not 
always get to know each other. 

31
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,440
And so we're thankful we got 
back to our hotel last night. 

32
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,800
We're very thankful that we had 
a few moments with them. 

33
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:29,080
And through the years, brother, 
me, McGee and I have been teamed

34
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:33,080
up preaching things. 
And I always tell people, I said

35
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:37,920
I don't know if it's the joke's 
on him or me, but we're we're 

36
00:02:37,920 --> 00:02:42,080
two different animals. 
The Bible says not to hook two 

37
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:43,840
different kind of animals up. 
I don't know. 

38
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,640
I don't know who's the ox and 
who's the, but we're just. 

39
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:53,640
But I I say that as I'm. 
Saying it in jest, but truly 

40
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,840
that's always challenged me 
because he's such a student of 

41
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,840
the Word and I know you know 
this and he doesn't need me to 

42
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:05,360
say this, but you have a pastor 
that is also a great preacher 

43
00:03:05,920 --> 00:03:08,040
and that's not always common 
either. 

44
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,440
And I'm thankful for their 
ministry and Sister McGee and 

45
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,440
all that they've done and just 
appreciative to be here with you

46
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,080
today, brother. 
Cook, I'm so sorry. 

47
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,760
I know we met a few weeks ago in
Kentucky. 

48
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,760
When I walked in, I looked at 
you, I thought. 

49
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:28,520
That guy looks like that guy. 
I met in Kentucky and turns out 

50
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,160
it is you. 
I'm going to preach about. 

51
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,720
Vision today you can see I need 
help with it but Amen Mark 

52
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:38,920
chapter #10 I greet this church 
family and say thank you to all 

53
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,920
of you that are here. 
I know the Mcgee's feel this 

54
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,000
way, I feel this way back home. 
I don't take it lightly when 

55
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:49,080
anybody walks in the doors, 
anybody that's got up and made a

56
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,720
choice to be in church with us, 
it's it's an honor. 

57
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,600
And so I'm honored that you're 
here with us today. 

58
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,040
And the good news is it'll be 
over soon. 

59
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:03,320
Mark, Chapter 10, verse 49. 
Familiar passage. 

60
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,800
I wouldn't dare try to be 
revelatory this morning, not 

61
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,760
with the preaching you've heard.
I didn't say it, but Elder 

62
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,400
Mcgee's no slouch when it comes 
to preaching either, that's for 

63
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,800
sure. 
Yeah, he preached a meeting in 

64
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,880
North Vernon years ago. 
I'd never heard him preach. 

65
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,480
I didn't know what to expect. 
And about the third or fourth 

66
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,680
time he took off running, I 
didn't know if he's going to 

67
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:31,440
fall over dead or what. 
But I can, Brother McGee. 

68
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,880
I ain't going to do no running 
today, I can assure you that. 

69
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:38,560
Mark, chapter 10, verse 49, 
Jesus stood still and commanded 

70
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,840
him to be called. 
And they called the blind man, 

71
00:04:41,840 --> 00:04:46,960
saying unto him, Be of good 
comfort, rides he calleth thee. 

72
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,520
And he, casting away his 
garments, rose and came to 

73
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,280
Jesus. 
There's a sermon all and all of 

74
00:04:52,280 --> 00:04:56,280
that Jesus answered and said 
unto him, What will thou that I 

75
00:04:56,280 --> 00:04:59,240
should do unto thee? 
The blind man said unto him, 

76
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,720
Lord, that I might receive my 
sight. 

77
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,000
Jesus said unto him, Go thy way,
thy faith have made thee whole. 

78
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:13,080
And immediately, somebody say 
immediately he received his 

79
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:19,280
sight and followed Jesus in the 
way I. 

80
00:05:19,280 --> 00:05:21,360
I want to. 
Preach for a few moments today 

81
00:05:22,280 --> 00:05:27,680
on this thought. 
Heal me that I may see Heal me 

82
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:33,200
that I may see if I I I went 
back to try to change my title 

83
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,480
but I was afraid it was going to
mess with too much stuff. 

84
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,560
But I, I went back there and 
said if we could change it, I 

85
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,240
would change it to the 
restoration of sight. 

86
00:05:44,280 --> 00:05:48,640
And, and I truly believe, I 
truly believe that God wants to 

87
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:53,880
let there be a recovery of sight
in this room so that we walk out

88
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,520
of here seeing our God and 
seeing our world a little 

89
00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,120
different than when we came in. 
Could we worship him one more 

90
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:04,400
time together today? 
Could you lift your voice and 

91
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:12,280
just magnify him? 
Thank you Jesus. 

92
00:06:17,840 --> 00:06:20,240
Thank you. 
Oh, clap your. 

93
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:33,120
Hands and praise him one more 
time, man, you can be seated. 

94
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:39,760
Heal me that I may see I, I, I. 
Don't think that. 

95
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,320
There's any of us? 
Would disagree this morning with

96
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,640
this thought. 
This carpet's real soft. 

97
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:46,960
That's why I asked him. 
I said can I go? 

98
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,280
Out there it feels good on my 
foot. 

99
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,120
We all understand the importance
of sight. 

100
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,640
It's been over a decade ago now.
I've, I've wore glasses since I 

101
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:05,240
was a kid, but I woke up 1 
morning and it felt like, or it 

102
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,200
seemed like I had something in 
my eye. 

103
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:12,000
And so I went to the restroom 
and begin to wash my eye out And

104
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,640
it was like, like I had sleep or
something in my eye and, and 

105
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,680
just, I, I couldn't see 
everything was blurry. 

106
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,960
And you know the, the quick way 
to know that is you, you look at

107
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,120
your phone and I, I couldn't 
read none of the messages. 

108
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,840
And so I went and kept washing 
my eyes out, never improved. 

109
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:34,000
And over the course of time, I 
went to a few different 

110
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:39,560
specialist and what what they 
discovered was somewhere in the 

111
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,080
night, a blood vessel had burst 
in my eye. 

112
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,720
The problem is, Brother McGee, 
it was in the the only good I 

113
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:53,400
had and that blood had pulled 
behind my retina. 

114
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:59,560
And I'll never forget when the 
specialist said to us, he said 

115
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,000
there's nothing we can do about 
that. 

116
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:07,400
Maybe in time it'll clear up, 
maybe it won't and we can go in 

117
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:11,520
here and do a surgery and, and, 
and prevent further bleeding, 

118
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,200
but there's nothing we can do 
about the damage that's done. 

119
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,040
And so boy, that started me on a
journey. 

120
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,360
I should have turned my license 
in. 

121
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,600
Not my preaching license, my 
driving license. 

122
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,200
You might think I should turn 
them in when I get done today, 

123
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,840
but it's early. 
Give me a chance. 

124
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:33,360
But I, I couldn't hardly see 
and, and, but you can, you can 

125
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,640
drive without seeing on this, on
this side. 

126
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,640
They got bumps to let you know 
you're getting too far. 

127
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,080
There's the reflectors in the 
middle, you know, But my, our 

128
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,480
assistant pastor, I grew up with
him and he'd come to church 

129
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:49,160
early and I would tell him, I'd 
say, I think over there in, in 

130
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,400
Leviticus, there's a scripture 
about such and such. 

131
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:53,880
That's what. 
I want to preach on tonight. 

132
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:55,440
You're going to have to read it 
to him. 

133
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:57,840
This was. 
This was right around the. 

134
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:02,040
The time that iPads and digital 
Bibles were getting popular, but

135
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,400
there was really no way at that 
time to manipulate the text. 

136
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,040
And so I I never preach at a 
Leviticus. 

137
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,160
I just was trying to see what 
your face would say when I said 

138
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,240
that. 
But but but. 

139
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:17,600
That went on for some time and 
thank God through surge a couple

140
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,760
different things with my eyes, 
my vision has improved. 

141
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,080
So you you could ride with me 
after church and you'd pretty 

142
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,240
well. 
Be safe, but vision and sight is

143
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:31,160
very important. 
But I I don't believe today that

144
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:36,440
there's any sight more important
than the vision of the soul. 

145
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,520
And and I want to deal today if 
the Lord will help me with three

146
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:47,800
or four areas of sight that I 
believe God wants to let this 

147
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,480
church experience a recovering 
of sight to. 

148
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,680
So if you'll help me with the 
first couple, I don't want to 

149
00:09:54,680 --> 00:09:58,360
insult you in any way. 
So just just act like it's the 

150
00:09:58,360 --> 00:09:59,960
first time you're hearing some 
of this. 

151
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:04,720
But I think that number one, 
there needs to be the recovering

152
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:11,800
of how we see God. 
They they, they set me up to get

153
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:16,480
excited when they ended worship 
with who is like the Lord, 

154
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,560
because I'll tell you today, 
there's nobody like the Lord. 

155
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,080
Unto him be all glory and honor 
and power. 

156
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:29,040
He's worthy of it. 
And I, I will tell you that 

157
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,760
there's nothing the enemy of 
your soul and mine would like 

158
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:37,520
more than for us to dumb down 
God, to be like one of us. 

159
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,600
I believe you're great people, 
but nobody's like God. 

160
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,960
I believe you're faithful 
people, but nobody's as faithful

161
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:50,680
as God. 
There is no body like God. 

162
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,600
In Deuteronomy there's a 
scripture and I won't read it 

163
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,640
all, but he can. 
Expose you to it today. 

164
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:01,280
It simply ends with this. 
It says he will not fail thee. 

165
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,320
Can I tell you there's not 
another human? 

166
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,160
And he's not a human, but, but 
there's not another person on 

167
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,000
the planet. 
To which you can say, He will 

168
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,840
not fail thee. 
You've you've got a good pastor,

169
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:16,120
but you can't say it's 
impossible for him to fail you 

170
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,040
because there's error in all of 
us humans. 

171
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,400
But when it comes to God, he 
cannot fail you. 

172
00:11:22,560 --> 00:11:25,800
He cannot disappoint you. 
He can't let you down. 

173
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,120
He can't walk away from you. 
He can't give up on you. 

174
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,720
He can't give in on you. 
There's nobody like God. 

175
00:11:35,680 --> 00:11:38,800
See the problem? 
The problem often is this. 

176
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:43,520
Is that if you don't know God, 
you'll make him like the people 

177
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:48,960
you do know. 
And we can't have you going 

178
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:50,560
around making God like your 
mother-in-law. 

179
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,840
We can't have you going around 
making God like the guy on the 

180
00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,960
job that's done your wrong 50 
times. 

181
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:03,680
We can't make God like the 
people. 

182
00:12:03,680 --> 00:12:07,120
We do know that there is nobody.
Like him? 

183
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,960
There's no one that that that 
moves and operate. 

184
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,560
Listen to me. 
Every one of us is subject to 

185
00:12:13,560 --> 00:12:17,000
time. 
It's about 10:50. 

186
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,280
Your your hostage situation will
be over shortly. 

187
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,480
We're we're all stuck right here
about 10:50. 

188
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,440
But God's not stuck there. 
He stands outside of time. 

189
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:34,120
He moves outside of time. 
He sees the past, the present. 

190
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,560
And the future in one glance. 
There ain't nobody else can do 

191
00:12:36,560 --> 00:12:39,720
that. 
The good news of that is, is 

192
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:43,120
when you're in a struggle, God's
not in the struggle with you. 

193
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,640
He stands on the outside of it. 
And while you're in pain, they 

194
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,000
mentioned it singing today, 
while you're in the middle of 

195
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,400
your pain, God is standing at 
the day of your deliverance. 

196
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,720
Oh, somebody magnify him with 
me. 

197
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,760
There's, there's a, a principle 
or a law, if you could say it 

198
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:08,280
that way of first mention in the
Bible, and I love that. 

199
00:13:08,680 --> 00:13:12,240
And, and that has disproved a 
few sermons of mine through the 

200
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,400
years. 
But but if you, if you want to 

201
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,000
think about the law first 
mention, let's talk about where 

202
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:22,120
do we first see God in the in 
the beginning, God created the 

203
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:23,800
heavens and the earth. 
The earth was dark and void 

204
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,280
without form and darkness is 
upon the face of the, the spirit

205
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,920
of the Lord moved. 
What, what, what's the point of 

206
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:31,560
you reading Genesis to his 
preacher? 

207
00:13:31,680 --> 00:13:34,880
It's to tell you that before 
there was anything, there was 

208
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:41,360
the faithfulness of God. 
That means you can't go through 

209
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,640
anything that the faithful of 
faithfulness of God will not 

210
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:48,960
stand true if you're sick in the
hospital. 

211
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:50,320
The faithfulness of. 
God is there. 

212
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,080
If you're being blessed, the 
faithfulness of God is there. 

213
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,440
It does not matter it heads or 
tails, the faithfulness of God 

214
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,400
is there. 
And it's important that you know

215
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,920
that because the devil would 
love for you and I to see our 

216
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:03,880
God through the lens of our 
struggle. 

217
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,600
But I'm telling you, God is 
greater than my struggle. 

218
00:14:06,680 --> 00:14:09,960
He's greater than my pain. 
He's greater than my difficulty.

219
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:11,720
He's greater than what I go 
through. 

220
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,960
He's greater than my disease. 
He's greater than my injury. 

221
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:16,800
He's greater than my family 
trouble. 

222
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,840
He's greater than my There's 
nobody like my God. 

223
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:24,440
Oh, clap your hands and love him
with me. 

224
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,200
You come by. 
Too late to tell me God will 

225
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,840
fail you. 
I'm not going to go into. 

226
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:36,320
Details. 
But about a year ago I had a 

227
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,440
accident. 
That's why I strut the way I do 

228
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,800
when I saw you watching me walk.
It's a strut, not a limp. 

229
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,560
Don't go telling people that 
Preacher had a limp. 

230
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:46,640
The strut. 
You're too young for this. 

231
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,640
But it ain't quite the George 
Jefferson Walk. 

232
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:53,960
But it is a strut. 
I would tell you, I have people 

233
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:57,000
come, well, many people come to 
me after that accident and say, 

234
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,880
I know, I know your faith is 
tested and it's weary and, and 

235
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,760
and you're wondering why is God 
letting all this happen to you? 

236
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,120
And I thought, I want to say to 
him, well, I wasn't wondering 

237
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:07,720
about none of that to you said 
it to me. 

238
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:11,880
And thank you for helping me go 
into a trial of my faith. 

239
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,800
I never one time thought that. 
When I was stuck laying up under

240
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,680
that machine in my field begging
for help, I knew God was with 

241
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,080
me. 
When I walked into or when I was

242
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:28,400
wheeled in off a helicopter into
U of L hospital, I knew God was 

243
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,680
with me. 
When I was trying to recover, I 

244
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,320
knew God was with me. 
When I got infection and got 

245
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,400
sick again, I knew God was with 
me. 

246
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,760
When I got a third infection and
had another surgery, I knew God 

247
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,400
was with me. 
You come by too late to tell me 

248
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:45,960
my God will not fail you. 
My God will not disappoint you. 

249
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,520
My. 
God, he was faithful in Genesis 

250
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:55,680
and he will be faithful now. 
Oh, clap your hands and praise 

251
00:15:55,680 --> 00:16:02,840
Him tonight. 
So I'm not going to let the 

252
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,760
devil change my view of God. 
I say there ought to be a 

253
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,440
recovering of sight to the body 
of Christ right now if there was

254
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,440
ever an hour. 
We understood the answer to all 

255
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,560
of the world's problems is 
Jesus. 

256
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:19,520
It is the answer to it all. 
And I'm not going to see my God 

257
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:25,760
less than I'm going to lift him 
up as high as I can lift him up.

258
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:35,520
Oh, let's praise him together. 
Well, how should we see him? 

259
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:39,040
I'll tell you how Prophet Isaiah
told us. 

260
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,320
He said in the year that King 
Isaiah died, I saw the Lord. 

261
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:44,080
How did he seem? 
Hi. 

262
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,760
And lifted up, He said. 
I saw him high and lifted up. 

263
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,240
And his train filled the temple,
He said, He said when I got a 

264
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:56,080
new view of God, he said when 
something died, I got a new view

265
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,640
of God and I realized he was 
high and lifted up. 

266
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:03,360
I don't know this region very 
well, but I can tell you the 

267
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,839
highest thing in Mount Carmel is
God. 

268
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,079
The greatest thing in Mount 
Carmel is. 

269
00:17:08,079 --> 00:17:11,440
God. 
Come on, you come by too late to

270
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,280
tell me that God's not high and 
lifted up. 

271
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,599
Do you believe today that your 
God is greater? 

272
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,359
He's greater, He's greater, He's
greater. 

273
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,680
Hallelujah, I wasn't planning on
even mentioning any of this 

274
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,760
today, but when I was going 
through all this mess with my 

275
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,200
foot, I couldn't hardly sleep at
night. 

276
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,840
And there would be moments, 
Sister McGee, where it was like 

277
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:39,800
somebody opened the door of my 
home. 

278
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,320
I was sleeping in a recliner 
right by the door. 

279
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,400
I made a move, my recliner. 
It was freaking me out a little 

280
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:45,440
bit. 
I'm going to be honest with you.

281
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,320
But I could feel a presence walk
in my house and and Elder McGee,

282
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,800
I would feel a fear come over 
me. 

283
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,960
And I would feel a darkness come
over me, and I was so feeble of 

284
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,720
body at that time. 
I couldn't get up and stomp and 

285
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,880
praise God. 
But I'd lift my feeble hands and

286
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,480
all I could get out was God, I 
love you. 

287
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,320
And I would feel that presence 
immediately. 

288
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:13,600
Leave my home. 
Don't let anything stop your 

289
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:17,080
praise because praise invites 
the presence. 

290
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,960
And if you can get the presence 
of God there, it's. 

291
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:24,240
Greater than anything else. 
Why don't we praise Him right 

292
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,080
now? 
Why don't you clap your hands 

293
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:41,000
and magnify him? 
I'd be embarrassed elder, I'd be

294
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,960
embarrassed if y'all would have 
saw me in that condition and all

295
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:49,640
I could do was lift him feeble 
hands and and through a broken 

296
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:54,240
spirit and for whatever reason I
felt like a broken heart, I'd 

297
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,440
say God I love you. 
Oh God, I love you. 

298
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:01,480
And immediately, a few days 
later, I got to thinking about 

299
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:03,120
that and God put it in my 
spirit. 

300
00:19:03,120 --> 00:19:06,160
He said, don't you realize the 
greatest attack even on the body

301
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,600
of Christ right now is fear and 
anxiety? 

302
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,520
But you learn just a simple 
mention of my name causes that 

303
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,720
to flee and causes that to 
leave. 

304
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:17,480
Somebody ought to shout Jesus 
over Mount Carmel. 

305
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,560
Somebody ought to shout Jesus at
first Apostolic. 

306
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:25,280
Somebody ought to believe that 
if I praise him, the enemy will 

307
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:30,000
be driven out. 
Oh, let's love the Lord 

308
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:39,680
together. 
So I hope, I hope to the body of

309
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:43,840
Christ there comes a recovering 
of sight to how we see our God. 

310
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,440
If there's not, we're going to 
die in life's dilemmas. 

311
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:55,240
And so as we move this morning, 
I say let there be a recovering 

312
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:59,280
of our sight about God. 
The next dimension of sight I'd 

313
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,720
like to talk about for a moment 
is this. 

314
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:06,640
It's how we see ourselves. 
Now don't worry, I'm not going 

315
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:10,840
to preach into a narcissistic 
fit of any kind, but I want to 

316
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:16,480
tell you today that if we don't 
get an image of ourselves that 

317
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:20,760
we are children of the 
resurrection, we are going to be

318
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:29,960
stuck living a life. 
In the very chains that God has 

319
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:33,880
broken off of us, somebody said 
Amen. 

320
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,480
Uzziah said in the year king 
Uziah, he said I saw or Isaiah 

321
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:41,120
said I saw the Lord high and 
lifted up when he got a good 

322
00:20:41,120 --> 00:20:43,600
vision of God. 
Then he describes what he saw in

323
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:48,800
himself. 
He said, woe is me from I'm a 

324
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:52,680
man of unclean lips, I'm undone.
He says I'm done, I'm undone. 

325
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,880
He said, well, preacher, why 
would I want to recovering of a 

326
00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:00,120
sight to see myself that way? 
Well, you got to keep reading 

327
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,520
because if you keep reading, he 
started seeing angels, he 

328
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,080
started seeing the Seraphim, he 
started seeing them having 

329
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,600
getting getting hot coals off 
the altar. 

330
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,360
And if you read on a little 
further, he said. 

331
00:21:11,360 --> 00:21:17,000
And then my iniquity was purged.
You see, the devil don't want 

332
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,360
you to see yourself in the light
of who God is in your life. 

333
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:30,080
Listen, if if we don't see 
ourselves in the light of what 

334
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:33,440
God has done for us through His 
name, through His blood, through

335
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,880
the infilling of His Spirit, if 
we don't see that we are going 

336
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,720
to be stuck living a life that 
is based upon our DNA. 

337
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,840
And you may come from a good 
family, but I'm telling you, in 

338
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,920
every family there is some 
dysfunction in that family. 

339
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,360
Come on. 
But when we see ourselves in the

340
00:21:53,360 --> 00:21:57,280
light of Jesus Christ, we can 
understand we're not a beat down

341
00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,440
body. 
We're not less than. 

342
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:06,540
You. 
See, that's what the enemy wants

343
00:22:06,540 --> 00:22:08,140
you to do. 
He wants to see yourself so 

344
00:22:08,140 --> 00:22:11,020
inferior that you never step 
into your purpose. 

345
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,680
But I'm telling this church, 
you're about to move from just 

346
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,960
meeting on this end of town, 
having services to affecting 

347
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,400
this community in a way that 
maybe you never have. 

348
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,560
God has prepared a great 
foundation under you, but there 

349
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,320
are seeds of revival that are 
ready to spring forth. 

350
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:30,000
But God does not need a body 
with a bowed head and a bent 

351
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,480
spirit. 
He needs God's wealthy walk in 

352
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,800
warriors to understand. 
God has redeemed me. 

353
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,640
God has saved me. 
God has made me whole. 

354
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,840
I was a Sinner, but I'm not now.
I was. 

355
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:45,320
Rejected, but I'm not. 
Now God has done something. 

356
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:51,480
In my life, we ought to take a 
praise break right here. 

357
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,920
Are you thankful for the blood? 
Are you thankful for his name? 

358
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,920
Are you thankful for His washing
power? 

359
00:23:07,730 --> 00:23:12,450
Hallelujah, we I'll tell you 
what we don't need. 

360
00:23:12,490 --> 00:23:14,650
We don't need a Gideon spirit 
hitting our churches. 

361
00:23:14,650 --> 00:23:19,360
Says who? 
Me, I'll never forget back in 

362
00:23:19,360 --> 00:23:23,360
2006, we had a Sunday night 
service that would arrive on any

363
00:23:23,360 --> 00:23:25,120
camp meeting. 
I mean, God was moving. 

364
00:23:25,120 --> 00:23:27,440
It was powerful. 
That was Sunday night. 

365
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,360
Tuesday I was at work and my mom
rang my phone. 

366
00:23:30,360 --> 00:23:32,000
She was crying. 
She said can you come to the 

367
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,320
house? 
And so I got with my bosses and 

368
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,600
left and and went to the house 
by Wednesday or by Thursday. 

369
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,720
We had church on Thursdays that 
at that time, by Thursday night,

370
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:45,040
I was the pastor. 
And it sent our church into a 

371
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,520
confluence of calamities that to
this day I don't understand. 

372
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:52,280
But there was a man in our 
church who I trusted and loved 

373
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:56,160
and cared for and, and, and I 
had leaned on him. 

374
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,880
My, my father was my pastor. 
And this guy, this guy and I 

375
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,400
both served in ministry 
together. 

376
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:06,040
And he said to me, the day I 
became pastor, he said, you are 

377
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:12,640
not the man for the job. 
And, and, and I've lived my life

378
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,640
saying sticks and stones may 
break my bones, but words will 

379
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:17,840
never hurt me. 
But it wounded me. 

380
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:22,000
And I'll never forget every 
Sunday when it was time to walk 

381
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,640
out to that office, I would hear
that voice. 

382
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:28,760
You're not the man for the job. 
You let me tell you what I did. 

383
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:31,360
Again, you're not going to fully
understand this. 

384
00:24:31,360 --> 00:24:34,200
You're not old enough. 
I put my Bible up under my arm 

385
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,680
and I did my best George 
Jefferson out there and I got up

386
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,080
and preached. 
Anyways, can I tell you I'm not 

387
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:44,040
going to let no devil in hell or
out of hell tell me God is not 

388
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,360
going to work in my life. 
Greater is he that's in me than 

389
00:24:47,360 --> 00:24:50,360
He that's in the world. 
We need a recovering of sight. 

390
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:56,920
That sees ourselves in the. 
Light of Jesus Christ, somebody 

391
00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:58,440
ought to help me worship right 
here. 

392
00:24:59,120 --> 00:25:03,960
Come on, lift up your eyes and 
see what the Lord has for you. 

393
00:25:16,570 --> 00:25:24,490
Hallelujah, Hallelujah. 
You know why? 

394
00:25:24,490 --> 00:25:28,680
Sis, when I let the Lord peel 
back the layers of revelation 

395
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:32,800
over my eyes and I know what all
God's done for me, that old song

396
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:36,320
rings true to me today. 
You don't know like I know what 

397
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:40,040
the Lord has done for me. 
I was a Sinner and He saved me. 

398
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,200
I was broken and He made me 
whole. 

399
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:46,880
I fell down and he picked me up.
You don't know like I know what 

400
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:51,040
the Lord has done for me. 
And He didn't bring me this far 

401
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,480
to be done with me. 
Yet He didn't bring you this far

402
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:58,680
to be done with you. 
Yeah, open up your eyes and see 

403
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:05,000
what the lie Will somebody help 
me praise him? 

404
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,200
Somebody. 
Help me praise him. 

405
00:26:14,790 --> 00:26:21,150
Hallelujah, Hallelujah. 
I'm not talking about I'm not 

406
00:26:21,150 --> 00:26:24,310
talking about being arrogant. 
I'm not talking about being 

407
00:26:24,310 --> 00:26:27,400
cocky within. 
Ourselves, can I tell you, I 

408
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,720
believe God wants to put his 
church on parade. 

409
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,480
I believe he wants everybody in 
Mount Carmel to know where first

410
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:37,960
Apostolic Church he is. 
Somebody said, well, they do 

411
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:39,400
know preacher. 
Well, I'm going to talk about it

412
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,640
at the end, but what happens 
when God changes their view of 

413
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:48,240
how they see the church? 
Somebody said Amen. 

414
00:26:49,360 --> 00:26:51,760
I feel like making the devil mad
in here. 

415
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,640
There are gifts and callings on 
the people of this church that 

416
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,720
the enemy wants to water down 
and make you feel like you're 

417
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,920
the people across the track 
somewhere that nobody cares 

418
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,120
about. 
I come to jerk the cover off the

419
00:27:04,120 --> 00:27:08,360
devil's lie and tell you that 
God wants to open up your eyes 

420
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:13,560
so you can see how mighty He is 
in you, how strong He is in you,

421
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:17,240
how powerful He is. 
Come on, I know there's nobody 

422
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,040
like God. 
But you got that God living on 

423
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:29,080
the inside of you. 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah. 

424
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:39,200
Hallelujah, Hallelujah. 
I'm not I'm not just saying this

425
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:43,120
for response since I know you're
in grandma mode. 

426
00:27:43,120 --> 00:27:44,640
They said you're the best 
grandma here. 

427
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:46,720
But I'm going to tell you 
something. 

428
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:50,120
When I when the Holy Ghost 
filled people, when our. 

429
00:27:50,120 --> 00:27:53,040
Feet hit the. 
Floor in the morning we become 

430
00:27:53,120 --> 00:27:58,720
instantly the devil's worst 
nightmare I'm sick and tired of 

431
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,600
the church being depressed I'm 
sick and tired of the church 

432
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,240
having nightmares it's. 
Time we rain on the devil's 

433
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,480
parade. 
It's time we give hell some 

434
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,800
nightmares. 
It's time he realizes, Oh, 

435
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,160
they're up again. 
Their feet hit the floor. 

436
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,200
They're going to pray again. 
They're going to worship again. 

437
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:25,960
They're going to believe again. 
I I want to move on to the next 

438
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,080
thing but I feel something in 
the Holy Ghost right here. 

439
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,560
I feel a war cry coming to this 
church. 

440
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:35,760
I I may be missing it by 
1,000,000 miles. 

441
00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:39,040
Don't ever tell me I'm very 
insecure but I feel the Holy 

442
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:42,800
Ghost even off your first family
ripping insecurity off the top 

443
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,120
of them and getting them to 
realize there is a calling in 

444
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:47,000
you. 
There is a. 

445
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,720
Power in you. 
God wants to invest a harvest in

446
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,960
this child. 
I need somebody that will 

447
00:28:53,960 --> 00:29:30,480
receive that right now. 
I was watching I was watching 

448
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,000
Mariah almost messed her name up
that would proved I wasn't in 

449
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,360
the spirit. 
I was watching her up there 

450
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:39,040
singing and I was going to tell 
her this after the church. 

451
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,320
Do you know the angels of the 
Lord are watching you? 

452
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:43,400
Do you know they're watching 
over you? 

453
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,000
Can I tell you why do you want 
to say that to her? 

454
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,840
Because I know the enemy loves 
to take young people that want 

455
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:54,360
to dedicate their life to God. 
And girl, this is not going to 

456
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,400
make sense, but I'll explain it 
to you later. 

457
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:59,880
Don't worry that you don't fit 
in anywhere, because God's going

458
00:29:59,880 --> 00:30:01,880
to make your calling fit in 
everywhere. 

459
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:11,440
Come on, can I tell you God 
doesn't answer inferior 

460
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:15,840
expectations, but he wants a 
church that'll rise up and say I

461
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:22,640
see who I am through the Lord. 
Come on, clap your hands and 

462
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:36,780
praise He. 
Come on, would you help me 

463
00:30:36,780 --> 00:30:39,300
worship right here? 
The Holy Ghost is in this room. 

464
00:30:39,580 --> 00:30:41,660
Let's see what the Lord wouldn't
say to us right now. 

465
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,440
I believe that's a principle, 
Brother McGee. 

466
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:20,520
I believe that's a principle of 
separation. 

467
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:24,160
We've never tapped into that 
part of separation is not just 

468
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,800
about what we see necessarily. 
It's God doesn't want us. 

469
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,280
Fitting into a. 
World that he's called us to be 

470
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,680
greater than. 
We're not better than people, 

471
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,760
but we got something on the 
inside of us that's greater. 

472
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,840
I refuse to let Mariah suffer 
with depression. 

473
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,640
I refuse to let her suffer with 
anxiety. 

474
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,840
I refuse to let her ever suffer 
with the things of this world. 

475
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,440
There's a calling of God on her.
There's a calling of God on you.

476
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:53,880
Greater, greater, greater. 
Greater, greater is He that's in

477
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:59,680
me. 
Somebody praise Him with me. 

478
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:05,200
Come on, you want to praise Him 
right now? 

479
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,240
Let God magnify the call of God 
in you. 

480
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:23,680
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, 
Hallelujah. 

481
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:33,800
Go ahead, go ahead, try it out 
till you feel it break. 

482
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,600
I said, I said pray till you 
feel it break. 

483
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:39,720
Pray till you feel the chain 
loosen. 

484
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,520
Pray till you know God is moving
in your spirit. 

485
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:44,520
Pray till you feel the enemy 
run. 

486
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,600
Pray till you feel the feathers 
break. 

487
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,840
Pray till you know God has 
liberated you. 

488
00:32:52,200 --> 00:33:02,370
I'm. 
Going to tell you what what's 

489
00:33:02,370 --> 00:33:04,090
happening. 
In the Holy Ghost right now. 

490
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,680
My dad couldn't sing worth a 
lick, but he didn't care. 

491
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,640
He'd get a mic, sing anyways. 
He definitely couldn't write 

492
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:12,640
songs, but he'd try to write 
them anyways. 

493
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,720
But we get to having a Holy 
Ghost time around there and he'd

494
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,400
get the mic. 
I'm not definitely going to sing

495
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:19,800
in front of the Masons and I. 
Learned today your pastor can 

496
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:22,320
sing too but I will tell you 
here's what my dad would get to 

497
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:26,560
singing we got the Devil on the 
run church look at the devil run

498
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,840
I know it's a Sunday morning and
I know there's a lot more day to

499
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,800
live but I'm telling you I think
we got the devil on the run in 

500
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,040
this house right now and I don't
know what the. 

501
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:36,960
The devil's been bothering in 
your world. 

502
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,160
I don't know what the enemy's 
been telling you, but somebody 

503
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:43,640
better open the back door 
because I feel the devil getting

504
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:45,880
ready to run up out of this 
house. 

505
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,920
I feel a releasing, I feel a 
power. 

506
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,840
I feel an overflow of God's 
Spirit. 

507
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,520
Somebody help me, shout. 
Somebody help me. 

508
00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,400
Rejoice. 
Somebody help me. 

509
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:21,280
Pray. 
I really cook. 

510
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,560
I'll tell you why. 
We better see ourselves in the 

511
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:27,440
light of how God sees us, 
because if not my brother, we're

512
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,080
going to be subject to live 
according to what they say. 

513
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,960
It don't matter what they say 
about you, it's what does God 

514
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,719
say about you? 
I, I, I don't want to embarrass 

515
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:38,880
Brother Cook, but I felt the 
Holy Ghost right there. 

516
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:41,480
I'm telling you, it doesn't 
matter what the whole world says

517
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,960
about us if we're walking with 
Jesus. 

518
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:46,760
I say keep on walking, keep on 
believing. 

519
00:34:53,639 --> 00:34:55,040
She done got lost in the Holy 
Ghost. 

520
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:56,000
You're going to have to tell 
her. 

521
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,240
All this stuff, I said. 
But you know why I want to get a

522
00:34:58,240 --> 00:35:01,360
hold of young people and let 
God, I felt God tell me to tell 

523
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:02,680
her that. 
You know why? 

524
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:04,760
Because if she. 
Can get something way down in 

525
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,120
her soul. 
Her critics will become 

526
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:10,920
promoters. 
Slander will become advertising.

527
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:13,360
Because we'll know who we are, I
said. 

528
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,240
We'll know who we. 
Are we'll know? 

529
00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,720
Come on 1st Apostolic, do you 
know who you are? 

530
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,560
Do you know who you are? 
And God, do you know who you 

531
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:23,960
are? 
Hallelujah. 

532
00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:41,000
Hallelujah, 
Hallelujah. 

533
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:54,400
Hallelujah, Hallelujah. 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah. 

534
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:57,000
I don't know why I feel to say 
this, and I don't want to put 

535
00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,440
none of you ladies into fear. 
So hear out what? 

536
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:02,160
Hear me out what I'm saying. 
There are some of the ladies in 

537
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:03,640
this church in this room right 
now. 

538
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:08,880
When you get up tomorrow, you're
going to feel a heaviness and 

539
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:12,640
the enemy is going to want you 
to own what you discerned. 

540
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:18,120
That heaviness is meeting you in
the morning specifically because

541
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,880
it does not want you to receive 
what God is trying to put into 

542
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,480
you right now. 
When you feel that heaviness in 

543
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,720
the morning, you ought to shout 
because that's a sign that the 

544
00:36:26,720 --> 00:36:29,960
devil knows that God is up to 
something in your world. 

545
00:36:38,140 --> 00:36:40,940
This end in my message, I wasn't
planning to say, but I want to 

546
00:36:40,940 --> 00:36:43,340
just tell you something. 
We're when we're spirit filled 

547
00:36:43,340 --> 00:36:46,980
people, we can discern things. 
Stop owning everything you 

548
00:36:46,980 --> 00:36:51,520
discern. 
Stop owning every feeling you 

549
00:36:51,520 --> 00:37:00,640
have. 
I walked this morning down into 

550
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:04,240
the lobby of that hotel and that
it was crowded in there, 

551
00:37:04,240 --> 00:37:05,680
thought, man, what in the 
world's going on? 

552
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:11,080
But it didn't take me very long 
to pick up on my radar that 

553
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,080
whatever they were involved in 
last night. 

554
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:18,160
I have wanted no part of. 
But I didn't walk out of there 

555
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,400
saying, man, I'm struggling 
wanting to go get a beer. 

556
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,760
I'm struggling with lust. 
I'm I'm struggling with 

557
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:24,800
perversion. 
You can't own everything you 

558
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:28,600
feel. 
Excuse me for being a little 

559
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,320
caustic with my language right 
here, but that the enemy of our 

560
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:35,000
soul wants to create Apostolic 
bipolar Christians that were 

561
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:38,160
subject to every wind that blows
and we're subject to every 

562
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:40,880
feeling that comes in. 
Fear would come in my house, but

563
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,200
I told it to go. 
Depression would come in my 

564
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:44,840
house, but I would tell it to 
go. 

565
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,000
You know why? 
Because I got the power. 

566
00:37:47,240 --> 00:37:49,800
Of the resurrected Christ on the
inside of. 

567
00:37:57,550 --> 00:37:59,470
I've spent too long there. 
I'm going to move through this 

568
00:37:59,470 --> 00:38:01,550
next one quick because I want to
get to the end of this. 

569
00:38:02,710 --> 00:38:04,950
There's how we see God, There's 
how we see ourselves in the 

570
00:38:04,950 --> 00:38:07,150
light of God. 
And then there's how we see our 

571
00:38:07,150 --> 00:38:08,550
brothers and sisters in the 
Lord. 

572
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,440
Don't make me preach on it long.
It'd be a good Wednesday night 

573
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,720
series on Unity. 
Your pastor could do a much 

574
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:16,520
better job breaking down 
Scripture. 

575
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:19,600
But can I tell you, if you 
study, you study the life of 

576
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,960
Isaac. 
And when his eyes were dimmed, 

577
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:24,320
he was willing to give his 
birthright to one of his 

578
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,840
children. 
In a move of deception, Jacob 

579
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,680
slid in and he stole Esau's 
birthright. 

580
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:33,600
And so the story goes, Jacob 
flees, Jacob leaves. 

581
00:38:34,720 --> 00:38:36,480
He goes to work on a farm to get
a girl. 

582
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:43,960
There's your good idea. 
I'm learning back home though, 

583
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:45,800
buddy. 
You don't have to actually have 

584
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,160
to work on the farm back home. 
They just dress like they work 

585
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:55,040
on a farm. 
Two of my three boys, they walk 

586
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:58,000
in, look like Cowboys sometimes.
Ain't got a horse, ain't got a 

587
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:04,480
cow, barely take care of a dog. 
I'm like, I'm like, what in the 

588
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,720
world's going on here? 
Boy, that that derailed me right

589
00:39:07,720 --> 00:39:11,240
there. 
So Jacob, he flees, he leaves. 

590
00:39:11,240 --> 00:39:14,120
He doesn't care what he's done 
to his brother, doesn't bother. 

591
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:17,040
He wanted that birthright. 
He was interested in what he 

592
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,160
wanted. 
He had no desire for 

593
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:22,040
reconciliation until God says 
I'm going to bless. 

594
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:23,880
You. 
But the only way I'm going to 

595
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,600
bless you. 
Is if you go back home and it 

596
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:28,400
and it. 
Would seem like, Jacob said. 

597
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:32,160
Oh man, finally I'm going to go 
back home and reconcile with my 

598
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:35,640
brother. 
No, he wanted the blessing and 

599
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:39,440
so he's he's willing to send 
messengers to say, hey, tell my 

600
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:44,080
brother my big day's coming and 
I'm coming back home. 

601
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,880
I want him to know, but I'm 
coming back to get my blessing. 

602
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,640
Those guys come back and tell 
Jacob. 

603
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:53,320
They said, hey, he's not only 
coming, but he's got 400 men 

604
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,160
with him. 
It ain't looking good. 

605
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,480
And Jacob some somewhere in 
between all that he has a 

606
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:01,480
wrestling. 
Match with God and walks away 

607
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:04,080
with a strut. 
See how I helped you there 

608
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:07,640
again? 
He walks away with a limp, 

609
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:10,560
walking different, thinking 
different, and here comes his 

610
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,400
brother. 
He's scared to death to see Esau

611
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:14,960
face to face. 
But when they finally meet, and 

612
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:18,240
they finally embrace and 
reconciliation happens, there's 

613
00:40:18,240 --> 00:40:19,400
this. 
Powerful scriptures. 

614
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:22,240
It's in one of those I gave you 
where he literally says to his 

615
00:40:22,240 --> 00:40:25,880
brother, when I saw you, it's 
though I saw the face of God. 

616
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,800
Come on, there's sometimes the 
only God you're going to see is 

617
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:32,920
through the eyes of a brother. 
It's through the eye. 

618
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:40,480
That's why Brother McGee and I 
know you're the same way. 

619
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,680
That's why when I go to camps, I
I don't mark time and say I 

620
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,480
wonder when we'll get to 
fellowship afterwards. 

621
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,360
I want to be preached to. 
I want to see the glory of God 

622
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,240
on somebody's face. 
I know I need my brother. 

623
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:54,800
I know I've got the power of God
inside of me, but want to put 

624
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,520
1000 to a put 10,000. 
It's more than multiplication 

625
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:02,360
when we let God bring unity to 
the body of Christ. 

626
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:06,120
If you'll clap. 
Real good. 

627
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:07,800
I'll move on through that one 
pretty quick. 

628
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:14,640
You see, because what a what a 
damaging thing you could be for 

629
00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:18,280
us to see God high and lifted up
and let's see him powerful 

630
00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,880
within us, but we can't stand 
one another. 

631
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:31,480
Somebody said to me one time 
said so and so thanks. 

632
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:33,520
You don't like him? 
I said, well, he's pretty smart.

633
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:38,640
That's exactly right. 
I said that not to make myself 

634
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,160
look bad, but you can't live 
life without getting some 

635
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:43,720
issues. 
You can't go to church and do 

636
00:41:43,720 --> 00:41:46,600
life with people without there 
being something you don't agree 

637
00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:50,800
with, something that rubs you. 
Oh, I promise I'm still 

638
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,840
preaching good and I'll make it 
palatable to you. 

639
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:56,400
But can I tell you, we cannot 
let the devil stop revival, and 

640
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:58,960
we can't let strife win within 
us. 

641
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:07,400
Stop revival. 
Brother, Brother Mason, you are 

642
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,320
not been studying enough, so I'm
going to give you. 

643
00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:11,880
I'm talking to you, Alex. 
I wouldn't, I wouldn't rebuke 

644
00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:15,000
the elder Mason. 
You know I've been studying. 

645
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,160
If I'm going to give you 
something to study, go study. 

646
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:21,520
Why when Gideon we got ready to 
harvest, why every time he did, 

647
00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:23,720
the Midianites would rise up and
take the harvest? 

648
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,320
Go study Why the Amalekites 
would take the harvest? 

649
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:27,760
I don't have time to preach at 
all. 

650
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:32,840
Midian literally means strife. 
I, I wish I could go into this 

651
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:34,200
further. 
He's going to study it. 

652
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:36,320
You'll, you'll be impressed with
what all he knows. 

653
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:39,080
But listen to me. 
It's not just strife. 

654
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:41,600
It wasn't just strife. 
It wasn't just trouble. 

655
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:47,720
It was to it was to damage their
sight of the harvest. 

656
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,120
Go study where it would. 
Happen at it had to do with the 

657
00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:53,880
eye of trembling. 
It's about sight, and when we 

658
00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,680
can learn to see God through our
brother and sister, there'll be 

659
00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,520
a recovering of sight that comes
to the Church of God. 

660
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:10,790
Clap your hands and love him. 
What you'll find out is there's 

661
00:43:10,790 --> 00:43:13,630
people you might not like. 
Maybe your personalities don't 

662
00:43:13,630 --> 00:43:16,910
click, but if you start to see 
the hand of God on them. 

663
00:43:20,110 --> 00:43:22,310
Some of the some preachers 
messages that have changed my 

664
00:43:22,310 --> 00:43:24,110
life, I don't even know if I'd 
want to have dinner with them, 

665
00:43:25,630 --> 00:43:27,150
but I've seen the glory of God 
on them. 

666
00:43:27,750 --> 00:43:31,080
I felt the power of God on them.
Can I tell you when God goes 

667
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:33,960
into the harvest field of this 
church in the next few months 

668
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,880
and years, what God wants to do 
around here, it's got to become 

669
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:38,680
more than one or two or three or
four. 

670
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,440
It's got to take all hands in 
the harvest and listen. 

671
00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:44,800
We may not agree with each other
on everything, but we can agree 

672
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:47,840
on the glory of God. 
We can agree on the power of God

673
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:51,840
on their life. 
I'm saying God don't just use 

674
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:55,840
me, but use my brother, use my 
sister, use the church across 

675
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:59,040
town. 
We need a revival of unity. 

676
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,840
I know none of you would ever 
fall prey to this, but I'm just 

677
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:09,720
using an example for the sake of
the sermon. 

678
00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:15,760
Talk about losing your vision. 
That same man sis that told me I

679
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:19,400
wouldn't cut out for the job he 
stayed around for for a few 

680
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:22,520
weeks in our church few months. 
Wounded me at every chance he 

681
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:23,800
could. 
Finally he went about a mile 

682
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:27,000
down the road started his own 
church and and and and that that

683
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:28,640
come to naughty. 
But that's not the story. 

684
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:30,800
That's not the principle of of 
the story. 

685
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,680
I was in our sanctuary praying 
one day because that's what good

686
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:37,160
preachers do. 
Oh Jesus bless these people. 

687
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:42,360
He's bless these carnal people. 
God, I'm embellishing. 

688
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:45,920
I got about right over here 
where my wife sitting in our 

689
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:50,160
sanctuary and the and the Lord 
spoke to me if I ever heard him,

690
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:52,480
I heard him. 
Then he said, if that man died, 

691
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:57,240
you'd want him to be lost. 
And I said, at least, you know, 

692
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:00,080
not really. 
I didn't say that to God. 

693
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:02,160
I'm going to tell you what I 
did. 

694
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:07,520
I fell on that Pew and said, 
God, get this mess out of me. 

695
00:45:08,720 --> 00:45:13,800
God, I hate him. 
It's over words, but God, it's, 

696
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:16,880
it's, it's messing with me. 
When I see him out, I want to 

697
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:19,120
lash out. 
I want to tell people what he's 

698
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,040
done. 
God, get this mess out of me. 

699
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:24,160
You know why? 
Because it wasn't Him. 

700
00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:28,720
What I felt wasn't hurting him, 
but I was losing my vision of 

701
00:45:28,720 --> 00:45:35,120
the harvest it was getting. 
This I'm not saying you've got 

702
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:36,360
an issue with. 
Anybody. 

703
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:39,200
But why don't we lift our hands 
all over this house and say, 

704
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:41,960
God, give me clean hands, give 
me a pure heart. 

705
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:44,720
Let me not lift my voice against
anybody, God. 

706
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:15,040
Hallelujah. 
Here's where I want to end. 

707
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,000
There's recovering of sight, how
we see God. 

708
00:46:20,720 --> 00:46:22,800
There's how we see ourselves in 
the light of God. 

709
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,240
There's how we see our brothers 
and sisters. 

710
00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:31,240
Then lastly, there's how we see 
the harvest. 

711
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:36,880
I told somebody the other day, I
said. 

712
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:42,000
Evidently I don't love myself 
because why would you? 

713
00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:44,680
First of all, I never miss 2 
Sundays in a row back home. 

714
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:47,520
Not not because they'll miss me 
because I'm afraid they'll fire 

715
00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:52,720
me, but but I I said why would 
you preach for Brother Vasquez 

716
00:46:52,720 --> 00:46:55,600
one Sunday and Brother McGee the
next, two of the greatest 

717
00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:58,680
preachers in our movement. 
Evidently I don't love myself. 

718
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:04,720
I was driving here yesterday 
and, and it's seriously how my 

719
00:47:04,720 --> 00:47:07,520
mom was thinking. 
I was like, hey man, what am I 

720
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:09,760
going on? 
I'm going to have to go watch 

721
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:12,200
their webcast for the last two 
years and try to find something 

722
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:18,360
he ain't preached on in a little
familiar voice. 

723
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:25,880
Got in that Bronco with me. 
And he said, tell the Mcgees and

724
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:29,480
tell FAC their season's about to
change. 

725
00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:36,080
I. 
Put that on the back burner in 

726
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:39,240
my mind when I got up this 
morning said, God, I know what 

727
00:47:39,240 --> 00:47:41,800
you I feel to preach, but I 
don't see where it fits. 

728
00:47:42,720 --> 00:47:46,520
And then I got up here on this 
front row this and God said, 

729
00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:51,280
tell them I want to change their
lens of how they see the harvest

730
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:58,320
to which I have placed them in. 
So you can think I'm crazy and I

731
00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:00,600
hope I'm not making you feel 
spooky, but I'm just going to 

732
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:03,520
tell you what I know. 
In the Holy Ghost, Elder McGee, 

733
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:08,080
I saw 20 years as I stood up 
there, I saw 20 years of you 

734
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:11,160
throwing seed out of you 
throwing seed out. 

735
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:13,920
Then I watched and I could see 
brother and sister McGee and the

736
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,000
Holy Ghost. 
And and I maybe because we 

737
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:19,000
talked about the trailer last 
night, but I saw them Criss 

738
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:21,800
crossing this country. 
They're going to be in Idaho 

739
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:25,040
this week, but I saw them from 
Michigan to Florida and from 

740
00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:27,160
east to West and they were 
sowing seeds. 

741
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:30,120
All over this country and the 
enemy at times has made them 

742
00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:33,680
think what about Mount Carmel? 
What about FAC. 

743
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:37,320
But I come to tell them the 
seasons are about to change, the

744
00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:40,520
clouds about to break and the 
rain's about to fall. 

745
00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,880
And the seed that's in the 
ground is about to spring forth 

746
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,840
with the mighty revival, with 
the mighty harvest. 

747
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:48,200
I need you to get a hold of 
this. 

748
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:51,720
I'm not got no other preaching 
today but to tell you it's about

749
00:48:51,720 --> 00:48:59,010
to change. 
Come on, let's take a praise 

750
00:48:59,010 --> 00:49:34,460
break right here. 
Pastor and Sister McGee, I tell 

751
00:49:34,460 --> 00:49:36,460
you in the Holy Ghost today, 
you've not seen your greatest 

752
00:49:36,460 --> 00:49:39,060
revival in the city. 
You've not seen your greatest 

753
00:49:39,060 --> 00:49:40,620
outpouring. 
You've not seen your greatest 

754
00:49:40,660 --> 00:49:42,860
breakthrough. 
God has seen your labor. 

755
00:49:42,860 --> 00:49:45,540
He's seen you. 
Toil he see you try to remain 

756
00:49:45,540 --> 00:49:49,220
faithful and God's about to open
the door God's about to change 

757
00:49:49,220 --> 00:49:51,460
the season. 
There's a dawning of a new day. 

758
00:49:51,460 --> 00:49:52,900
There's about to be a break 
forth. 

759
00:49:53,060 --> 00:49:54,660
There's about to be a bringing 
forth. 

760
00:49:54,820 --> 00:49:57,280
There's about to be seed that 
come up out of the ground. 

761
00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:59,400
Come on. 
It's not falling on Stony 

762
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:01,360
ground. 
It's not went by the way of the 

763
00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:03,520
wayside. 
It's been in the soil. 

764
00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:06,200
It's been waiting on the rain. 
It's been waiting on a 

765
00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:08,440
breakthrough. 
It's been waiting on the moment.

766
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:37,520
Hear me, hear me, hear me today,
FAC. 

767
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:41,120
You guys call yourself that if 
okay well really I was saying 

768
00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:42,960
1st and I thought, I hope it 
ain't faith, hear me? 

769
00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:45,760
And the Holy Ghost right here. 
There's enemies you've had in 

770
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:48,840
generations, gone before that. 
God has silenced them. 

771
00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:52,360
God has muted them. 
He has bound them with 1000 

772
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:54,280
chains. 
There's a new day and a new. 

773
00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:55,760
Breakthrough that's coming to 
you. 

774
00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:59,160
He has cleared the way. 
He has made a door that's about 

775
00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:01,480
to be open to you. 
It's a great and effectual door 

776
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:03,360
that no man's going to be able 
to shut. 

777
00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:06,360
I say run through it. 
I say run through it knowing who

778
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:09,800
he is, knowing who you are in 
him, knowing what he can do with

779
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:12,480
your brother and sister. 
I say walk home through the 

780
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:14,400
door. 
Let every devil be bound. 

781
00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:17,640
Let revival be loosed. 
Let there be miracles, signs and

782
00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:18,560
wonders. 
Come on. 

783
00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:40,720
See. 
See Elder, if the devil could 

784
00:51:40,720 --> 00:51:44,320
have stopped this church, he 
would have a long time ago. 

785
00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:52,000
So his only hope is to distort 
your vision so that you buy into

786
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:55,000
the lie. 
That maybe this is all God has 

787
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:58,360
for me. 
I come to tell you the Reaper 

788
00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:01,440
can overtake the planter. 
I'm come to tell you, blinded 

789
00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:04,200
eyes can be open. 
Deaf ears can be unstopped. 

790
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:06,480
The lane could walk. 
The dead could rise. 

791
00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:08,760
It's still all possible. 
Come on. 

792
00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:10,720
Do you believe it's possible 
here? 

793
00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:16,800
I feel a release in the Holy 
Ghost right here. 

794
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:18,920
I said. 
I feel a release in the Holy 

795
00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:21,200
Ghost right here. 
God's ready to do something in 

796
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:24,000
this house right now. 
God said come on, come on 

797
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:25,640
somebody will you let God use 
you. 

798
00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:29,080
Right now there is a release in 
the Holy Ghost. 

799
00:52:55,320 --> 00:52:59,440
Hallelujah, I'm not trying to be
corny or cliche, I'm just 

800
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:01,160
telling you what I feel in the 
Holy Ghost. 

801
00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:03,120
And I'm sorry, it's an old song 
too. 

802
00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:05,240
But Satan, your Kingdom must 
come. 

803
00:53:05,240 --> 00:53:07,600
Down. 
It must come down. 

804
00:53:08,240 --> 00:53:10,520
God's words not going to return 
void. 

805
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,080
Come on, Brother McGee, I'm not 
just trying to preach because 

806
00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:14,920
you're my friend. 
I've always loved your spirit. 

807
00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:19,480
But you got 20 years of His word
not being able to return void. 

808
00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:22,960
Brother Mcgee's got all of his 
years where that word cannot 

809
00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:25,240
return void. 
I'm going to tell you it's time 

810
00:53:25,240 --> 00:53:27,040
to preach faith like you've 
never preached. 

811
00:53:27,240 --> 00:53:29,040
Preach miracles like you've 
never really. 

812
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:33,880
Come on. 
You know why this church, I feel

813
00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:35,880
it in the Holy Ghost. 
I hope I'm not messing nothing 

814
00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:39,440
up, but God is shifting you from
belief to demonstration. 

815
00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:42,320
He is moving you from belief to 
demonstration. 

816
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:44,560
It's time for the outpouring of 
the Holy Ghost. 

817
00:53:44,720 --> 00:53:47,520
I say let the river flow. 
Let the power flow. 

818
00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:50,640
Let there be a demonstration of 
God's spirit and power. 

819
00:53:50,720 --> 00:53:52,280
Why don't you lift up your 
voice? 

820
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,720
Why don't you lift up your hands
and release yourself into the 

821
00:53:55,720 --> 00:53:57,920
supernatural power? 
Of God. 

822
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:19,320
I promise you, I promise you by 
the Mason or somebody can come 

823
00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:21,240
to the keys. 
I'm trying to get out of the 

824
00:54:21,240 --> 00:54:24,440
way, but I want you to hear me. 
I'm not saying this on accident.

825
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:27,800
Here's what God wants me to tell
you and don't just stare at me, 

826
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:29,760
but let's operate together in 
the Holy Ghost. 

827
00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:31,920
Can we do that? 
Here's what God is saying. 

828
00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:33,560
I'm about to change their 
season. 

829
00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:36,040
Tell them I'm going to change 
their season. 

830
00:54:36,200 --> 00:54:39,520
But when seasons change, there 
are things you cannot take into 

831
00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:48,000
the next season. 
I, I believe it was Mariah. 

832
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:50,520
If it wasn't, I'm sorry, but 
Mariah said to my wife when 

833
00:54:50,520 --> 00:54:52,840
she'd come in, something about 
her outfit, she said it looks 

834
00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:55,120
very fall. 
And the reason is, is because my

835
00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:57,560
wife has been ready for fall for
three months. 

836
00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:05,120
Somebody said, hey man, can I 
tell you there are hurts you 

837
00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:09,880
can't take into a new season. 
I'm not talking about holiness 

838
00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:11,400
or a tire. 
That's not my job. 

839
00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:13,560
But there's garments that's got 
to be changed. 

840
00:55:13,720 --> 00:55:17,080
Just like that man, the blind 
man that Jesus healed, the Bible

841
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:19,880
said he cast his garments aside.
There's some things you can't 

842
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:22,320
take into this revival. 
There's some things you can't 

843
00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:25,240
take into this delivers. 
But I've got good news for you. 

844
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:28,320
God will heal you today. 
God will deliver you today. 

845
00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:34,280
God will set you free today. 
Go ahead, Sister Mason, help me 

846
00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:36,200
shout. 
Help me rejoice. 

847
00:55:57,080 --> 00:56:02,400
See, there's a reason Sister 
McGee, that that the McGee fan, 

848
00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:06,360
the Masons that have had the 
toil so long, because what God 

849
00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:09,520
wants to give you, I feel this 
in the Holy Ghost, what God 

850
00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:14,080
wants to give you, if it is not 
grounded with a good foundation,

851
00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:18,240
it moves into sensationalism and
goofiness. 

852
00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:25,680
I feel a release in the Holy 
Ghost of visions and dreams to 

853
00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:28,200
this church. 
But if we are not grounded with 

854
00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:30,920
truth and a foundation, we'll 
get silly. 

855
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,040
We'll start painting the walls 
colors to match the dreams. 

856
00:56:34,040 --> 00:56:36,920
That's not what God's doing. 
But I'm telling you, there are 

857
00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:40,040
open doors in this community 
you've never seen before. 

858
00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:42,720
It's not because you're carnal. 
It wasn't time yet. 

859
00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:44,600
But God's about to open the 
door. 

860
00:56:44,720 --> 00:56:46,440
God's about to breakthrough for 
you. 

861
00:56:46,600 --> 00:56:50,000
God's about somebody ought to 
help me preach right now. 

862
00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:53,200
Do you believe in revival? 
Do you believe it can happen 

863
00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:58,280
here? 
Would you stand with me all over

864
00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:01,120
this house and let there be a 
praise in your spirit? 

865
00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:49,910
Come on, lift up your voice. 
See when God opens your eyes to 

866
00:57:49,910 --> 00:57:55,280
the harvest. 
I know you're not a real, real 

867
00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:57,200
large town, and I'm not saying 
that derogatory. 

868
00:57:57,200 --> 00:58:00,920
We're even smaller. 
But there's going to be 

869
00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:03,920
businesses, Brother McGee. 
When you drive by, something's 

870
00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:08,000
going to say go in there today 
because harvest don't have to. 

871
00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:10,200
Nothing to do with extrovert or 
introvert. 

872
00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:15,080
It's about can you see where 
God's at you? 

873
00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:16,960
You say, why are you staying in 
that vein? 

874
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:21,200
I'm telling you, I feel open 
doors for this church. 

875
00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:30,960
I'm telling you, there's a 
reason God blessed you to move 

876
00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:33,680
from pews to chairs. 
It's not not just for the look. 

877
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:36,000
They look good. 
I'm not saying that, but you can

878
00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:38,600
put more seats in, You can put 
more people in. 

879
00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:40,360
Come on, we're not going to let 
God. 

880
00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:43,760
We're not going to let the devil
limit what we think God can do. 

881
00:58:43,880 --> 00:58:55,120
It's time for breakthrough. 
Can I tell you where it starts? 

882
00:58:55,120 --> 00:58:58,040
Often. 
Once we've got our eyes on God 

883
00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:02,520
again, once we see who we are, 
once we see the gift of God on 

884
00:59:02,520 --> 00:59:04,360
our brother, can I tell you what
happens? 

885
00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:12,680
It's those closest to us because
what God spoke to me that I 

886
00:59:12,680 --> 00:59:15,480
tried to get my my title 
changed, but it was too late. 

887
00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:16,920
No fault to them. 
It was me. 

888
00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:19,440
It was that there's a recovering
of sight. 

889
00:59:19,600 --> 00:59:21,800
There are people that aren't at 
church today. 

890
00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:25,240
There are people who've walked 
away from God in this region and

891
00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:28,160
they've lost their sight. 
But I'm telling you, when the 

892
00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:30,520
church. 
Starts driving the Midianites 

893
00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:32,560
off. 
There's a recovering of sight 

894
00:59:32,680 --> 00:59:34,880
that comes. 
You better get ready for 

895
00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:37,360
prodigals. 
Maybe not even prodigals out of 

896
00:59:37,360 --> 00:59:40,760
this church, but prodigals that 
come looking for sight. 

897
00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:43,440
Something that they finally see 
again. 

898
00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:51,200
Come on. 
From front to back, sooner to 

899
00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:54,120
circumference. 
Could we just praise him all 

900
00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:59,320
over this house? 
Come on. 

901
00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:22,040
Praise Him, Praise Him. 
Hallelujah. 

902
01:00:46,280 --> 01:01:18,680
Who? 
This I don't want this to come 

903
01:01:18,680 --> 01:01:26,800
off in any way disrespectful but
but some men live so that they 

904
01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:32,000
leave. 
A large inheritance or. 

905
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:35,240
Then they spend their latter 
years so concerned with legacy 

906
01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:42,040
that often times they tarnish it
themselves in an attempt to 

907
01:01:42,040 --> 01:01:48,360
preserve it. 
Elder McGee, God's going to let 

908
01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:55,080
you live and see inheritance and
legacy being poured out in a 

909
01:01:55,080 --> 01:02:01,280
fashion that you've dreamed of, 
that you've believed for, that 

910
01:02:01,280 --> 01:02:12,280
you hoped. 
For come on, we need to receive 

911
01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:14,000
what God is putting into this 
church. 

912
01:02:15,160 --> 01:02:17,840
Come on, these altars are open. 
Would you come receive with us 

913
01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:27,960
today? 
Let there be a cry. 

914
01:02:27,960 --> 01:02:29,880
Come out of the womb of this 
church today.
