1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,440 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Love Quest International 2 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,560 Church podcast, where we seek to love all nations, equip the 3 00:00:06,560 --> 00:00:09,520 church, mobilize the equipped, and serve all. 4 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:13,040 We're super glad you're joining us from whenever and wherever 5 00:00:13,040 --> 00:00:15,760 you're at in the world. Welcome to the family to get 6 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,440 your Bibles ready, get some water, get some coffee, maybe 7 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:20,640 some tea and get ready to receive. 8 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:22,680 It's go time. Let's get into it. 9 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:29,800 You know, the Lord really takes us at our words and when you 10 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,200 sing a song like that and you say we're going to worship and 11 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,640 praise you forevermore, forevermore. 12 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:41,200 I only got 1 meaning scripture read Pastor Dylan gave a good 13 00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:45,120 word on Isaiah 60 today. He says not only will people be 14 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:49,720 drawn to your light, but it also says to the brightness of your 15 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:53,560 light shall kings come. There's an intensity about your 16 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,600 light that your light needs to have, not just the fact you got 17 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,960 1 right. So when you sing about 18 00:00:59,960 --> 00:01:03,880 forevermore, just think about what that means Forevermore. 19 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,440 If evermore don't mean like next, you come, come back again 20 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,760 next Sunday and do it again. Forevermore includes all the 21 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,360 time between now and next Sunday. 22 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,080 Amen. Amen. 23 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:24,360 You can grab a seat. Glory to the Lord. 24 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,520 Thank you again, pastors, for an opportunity to share the Word of 25 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,720 God. I take you through a blender to 26 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,760 pray and prepare. And as I've had an opportunity 27 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,920 to share more consistently during this window of time, I've 28 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:48,080 come to appreciate the the work and the effort and the seeking 29 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:52,040 of God that's required for our pastors to deliver what we get 30 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,880 every time they open their mouths. 31 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,280 I'm telling you, it's no joke. It's not something they do is 32 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,920 how they live. It has to be otherwise you get 33 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,280 worn out. So pastors, thank you again for 34 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,199 being such a good example, Pastor Terence and Pastor Julia, 35 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,400 of what it means to live the gospel. 36 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,080 Therefore, you preach out of how you live. 37 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,400 That's worth a hand clap right now. 38 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,800 And so I got the privilege to share word today, something 39 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,720 similar I've been working on. God hasn't had me in this loop 40 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:33,240 and about sharing some different things about these prophetic 41 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,640 words. If you've been with me as I've 42 00:02:36,640 --> 00:02:40,280 spoken the last few times, both here on Wednesday and even at 43 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,440 prayer, we've been talking about and teaching on how to pray 44 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,480 through a prophetic word and how important it is to pray through 45 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,280 a prophetic word. And the way it's been developing 46 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,640 is that sometimes some things will be taught here, some things 47 00:02:52,640 --> 00:02:55,560 will be taught there, and sometimes God has me repeat 48 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,520 things because the audience is different. 49 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,880 Does that make sense? And so I'm, I'm going to talk a 50 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:05,200 little bit about some things that was shared during prayer on 51 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:10,400 Saturday, 7:30 here, 10:00 in Vancouver. 52 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,280 You know, I'm telling you, if y'all want to see coming 53 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,520 attractions, prayer would tell you what coming attractions are. 54 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,440 It'll never catch you off guard or by surprise for sure. 55 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,640 So I'm, I'm going to talk a little bit about those things, 56 00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:26,640 but it's but it's something more, it's developing into 57 00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:29,160 something more I believe. And so I just want to share this 58 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,240 with you. So we talked about praying 59 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,000 through the prophetic words. So finish the year, finish the 60 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,640 word, finish the year, finish the word. 61 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,120 OK. And one of the keys to finishing 62 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,840 the word is understanding the power and importance of 63 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,360 repetition. And I spoke to that a little a 64 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:47,440 little bit in prayer. Why? 65 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,280 Because the last time I had a chance to gather before our body 66 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,560 complete, I emphasized about some steps and praying through a 67 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,320 prophetic word. Not to say this mechanical, but 68 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,320 it does give you some guidance as you develop. 69 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,120 And one of the things we talked about was spending some time 70 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,560 just thanking God for the prophetic word itself. 71 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,920 That was Step 2. Step 1 was just reading through 72 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,080 the prophetic word without inflection, without anything. 73 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,440 Watch. You don't want to bias it with 74 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,920 your feelings, your emotions, or your perceptions. 75 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,680 So Step 2 was to thank God for the prophetic word. 76 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,400 And it's something that's simple as, God, I just thank you for 77 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,480 the prophetic word. You've spoken of our house. 78 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,560 God, I thank you for the prophetic word and thanking God 79 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,040 for the prophetic word. What you're saying is, God, I 80 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,320 appreciate that you would speak to us. 81 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,160 I appreciate your loving kindness to give us a word, even 82 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,120 if it's a word of warning, even if it's a word of something 83 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,240 that's going to happen if we don't change our course, right? 84 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,560 God, I appreciate the fact that you care enough not to let me 85 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:52,320 keep going. That's your that's your loving 86 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,520 kindness. So saying thank you God for the 87 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,560 prophetic word and thank God, I receive it. 88 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,160 We receive it. We thank you for it. 89 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,480 God, we really appreciate keep giving us, keep speaking. 90 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,960 You have liberty to speak prophetically into our lives and 91 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,120 through this community. That's what you're doing. 92 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,000 You saying, God, thank you for the prophetic word. 93 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,000 God, I thank you for the prophetic word. 94 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,640 And as I, we talked about that, we said, you just continue to do 95 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,360 that for a little bit. And something came up to me is 96 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:24,040 that some people either very honestly and earnestly, we'll 97 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,280 just say that way. And I always think the best 98 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,960 we'll say, but I thought there was a verse or something that 99 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,040 talked about you shouldn't be saying the same thing over and 100 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,960 over again and like that, right? And so I, I felt it was 101 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:37,960 important to deal with that. Why? 102 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,160 Because we want you to have confidence in what we're not 103 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,680 only what we're teaching you, but in your exercise in what 104 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,440 we're talking about. Why is that important? 105 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:53,480 We are praying through the prophetic words the God has 106 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,880 spoken of our house with this year from now to the end of the 107 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,560 year. We're emphasizing that, Amen. 108 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:05,200 And we're emphasizing it in a moment where our pastors are out 109 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,680 doing other things right now. What does that mean? 110 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:14,720 I think God is telling us that we have a large part to play in 111 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,200 that. Does that make sense? 112 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:19,760 He's like, no, they got their part. 113 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,920 Y'all need to get y'all part and I'm including myself and y'all 114 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:26,120 because I'm here, right? We need to get that part. 115 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,200 And God is saying I need the body moving to praying through 116 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,120 these prophetic words. OK. 117 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,920 The other thing is I really believe God is saying it's much 118 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,240 more than just this. He said I'm trying to teach you 119 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:43,080 and train you now so you can be ready for the greater word. 120 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,040 I'm going to share with you the beginning of this coming year. 121 00:06:46,840 --> 00:06:48,800 I want you trained up. I want you ready. 122 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,840 I don't want you to be caught unawares by the weight of the 123 00:06:51,840 --> 00:06:54,640 word that I'm going to give you. So I'm training you to 124 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,200 understand it, to perceive it, to respect it, to honor it, and 125 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,600 to pray it through. Because once the weight of your 126 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,680 word gets dropped, you're going to be responsible for it. 127 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,400 You want to be accountable for it and I want you to be able to 128 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,600 steward it well. So I think part of what God's 129 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,640 doing in in emphasizing praying through prophetic words right 130 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:20,080 now is US preparing us for what he's getting ready to drop. 131 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,520 It's called being ready. Amen. 132 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,920 And so in wanting you to have that confidence, I want to deal 133 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,120 with this issue of repetition and, and that scripture and just 134 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,640 repetition in general. The Scriptures from Matthew 135 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:40,360 chapter 6 verse 7. It says But when you pray, use 136 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,680 not Zane repetitions as the heathen do. 137 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:48,120 This was a KJV. For they think that they shall 138 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:49,640 be heard for their much speaking. 139 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:56,040 Be not ye therefore say ye King James, ye be not ye therefore 140 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,560 like unto them. For your Father knoweth what 141 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,920 things you have need of, before you ask of him. 142 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,240 This is the verse. Now some people take this and 143 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,440 say you don't need to say stuff over and over again. 144 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,000 If you do, you're not lining up with the word of God. 145 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:14,200 Now I want to emphasize here, it says when you this is Jesus 146 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,920 talking, when you pray, use not vain repetitions. 147 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,040 He doesn't say don't repeat anything. 148 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:22,920 He says use not vain repetitions. 149 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:27,160 So my question becomes then, OK, Lord, what is a vain repetition 150 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,520 for they think they shall be heard for their much speaking. 151 00:08:34,919 --> 00:08:38,440 A vain repetition is when you're thinking that you're much 152 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,559 speaking will make God hear you better. 153 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,200 The more I say it, the more God's going to hear me. 154 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,920 The more I say it, the more God's going to move. 155 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,520 The more I say it, the more God's going to do get on his 156 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:57,800 job. They think they shall be heard 157 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:05,360 for the much speaking. That's what makes it a vain is 158 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,440 that you think that somehow you're repeating it. 159 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:12,200 It's going to make it make make God hear you more. 160 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,280 God, did you hear me? Did you hear me? 161 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:15,640 Did you hear me? Did you hear me? 162 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:22,120 That's vain repetition. OK, Now if there's vain 163 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,480 repetition, I would probably suggest to you that there's 164 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:29,520 repetition that's not vain, which means there is a 165 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,840 repetition that God couldn't want us to operate in that could 166 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,440 be effective for us and and the Kingdom of God. 167 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:42,080 Go to Joshua 1/8 an amplified, an amplified classic. 168 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:48,320 It says this Moses has died. Joshua's getting ready to take 169 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,440 over, or really he's anointed for it already. 170 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:56,360 And Lord basically says him to Joshua, be strong, be confident, 171 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,000 be of good courage. Sounds like stand to me. 172 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,320 You should 'cause these people to inherit the land which I 173 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:04,880 swore to their fathers to give them. 174 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:07,280 Look at the strength of that language. 175 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:12,640 You shall cause them, right? So you have to know who you are. 176 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,360 Some people today, if we were to say things like that, they would 177 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,640 think you're being arrogant. You can't say you shall cause 178 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:21,240 them. I didn't say it. 179 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,800 God's telling him that now for Joshua to pick it up and says 180 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,360 God said I was going to cause you. 181 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:28,880 I'm just repeating what God says. 182 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,200 Only you be strong and very courageous that you may do 183 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,000 according to all the law which Moses, my servant commanded you 184 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,640 turn not from it to the right hand or to the left that you may 185 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,520 prosper wherever you go. That's kind of a focus stick 186 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:43,680 there. You know, that sounds like to 187 00:10:43,680 --> 00:10:47,680 me, that sounds like to me like Step 2, right? 188 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,600 Just thank God for the prophetic word. 189 00:10:50,680 --> 00:10:52,640 Don't start adding stuff to it to write it to the left. 190 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,400 You just thank Him for the word. OK? 191 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,280 This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth, but 192 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,200 you shall meditate it on it day and night. 193 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:03,600 That's what I want to emphasize there. 194 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:08,520 Now, if you don't understand the Scripture, you'll say this book 195 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,000 should not depart out of your mouth. 196 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,880 And then you will think possibly that means you're not supposed 197 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:18,840 to say anything because once I say it, the words have left my 198 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,280 mouth and the word is saying, don't let it depart from your 199 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:27,080 mouth. So you just you just keep it in, 200 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,520 you meditate on the inside. You're not supposed to talk 201 00:11:29,680 --> 00:11:33,240 about what God is doing. The rightly dividing this word 202 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,440 says no. What that means is your mouth 203 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,840 ought to always be full of the word. 204 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,440 There shouldn't be nothing of doubt coming out of your mouth 205 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,120 because your mouth should be full of the word of God. 206 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,800 And what I've told you, don't ever let it get to to be a point 207 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,720 where you're not continually reminding yourself and speaking 208 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,640 about the things that I promised you and that I've told you. 209 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,040 Where do you get that from? In part because it says meditate 210 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,360 on it day and night, that is, no, there's no like in between 211 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,800 time. Use it day or night. 212 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,320 That means it's all the time. Even though it's just two times. 213 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,840 I'm whistling today. I don't know what that is. 214 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:20,040 Meditate on it. This word meditate means to 215 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:23,160 mutter. It means to chew on. 216 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,800 It literally means to repeat over and over again. 217 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:33,480 OK, Meditate, right? Give me something. 218 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,400 Give me a verse. The favor of God surrounds me 219 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:41,480 like a shield. OK, what does it mean to 220 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,400 meditate on that? It means to do this, Father. 221 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,760 The favor of God surrounds me like a shield. 222 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,120 Favor of God surrounds me like a shield. 223 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,000 Your favor surrounds me like a shield. 224 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,200 You don't have to walk and do this. 225 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,480 I'm just walking because I got to stay easy, but I like to walk 226 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,480 God. The favor of God surrounds me 227 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,520 like a shield. The favor of God surrounds me 228 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,360 like a shield. The favor of God surrounds me 229 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,400 like a shield. The favor of God surrounds me 230 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,360 like a shield. The favor of God surrounds me 231 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,280 like a shield. The favor of God surrounds me 232 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,320 like a shield. I'll drive with my eyes open 233 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:14,640 now. The favorite gospel is like a 234 00:13:14,680 --> 00:13:16,240 cheer. Yeah. 235 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:17,280 Tough crowd. Tough crowd. 236 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:18,520 I'm glad you're paying attention. 237 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,000 I'm glad you're paying attention for cheer. 238 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,520 Right. That's what meditation means. 239 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,360 It means to mutter, to speak consistently, continually. 240 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,320 If you really understand it, it means to what? 241 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:32,160 To repeat. Right. 242 00:13:32,560 --> 00:13:36,360 A picture of muttering is a cow. A cow will chew. 243 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,880 Chew, chew, chew. Everyone chew, chew, chew. 244 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:45,520 Anyway, a cow will chew right and then they'll swallow it and 245 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,480 then bring it back up. I had to say bring it back up 246 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,000 because she said regurgitate real loud. 247 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,960 So I have to give some other words for I got to bring it back 248 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,400 up right? That's my sister. 249 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,440 And then chew it some more. So it means chew, chew, chew, 250 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,760 chew. Let it sit and then Choo, Choo, 251 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,560 Choo some more. So this idea of meditation, this 252 00:14:04,560 --> 00:14:08,600 idea of the God speaking here, saying repetition is important. 253 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,920 What does God connect meditation with or repetition with 254 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:17,720 observing and doing all repetition helps you to observe 255 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,680 and do all to make sure you're not missing anything. 256 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,720 It helps you to observe, which means to see all you need to do. 257 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,880 And then it helps you to do all that you need to do. 258 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,720 For then you should make your way prosperous. 259 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,360 Amen. There's something better than 260 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,240 making your way prosperous. What is that? 261 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,720 No, just read the next line, he said. 262 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:46,680 He said to them you should make your way prosperous and then you 263 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:48,600 should deal wise. You have good success. 264 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,560 You can be prosperous but not have good success. 265 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,280 Good success is the proper application of your prosperity 266 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:03,160 for Kingdom purposes. That's what good success is. 267 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,920 Are you using your prosperity in a way that's blessing people and 268 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:11,040 blessing in the Kingdom? What he's connecting to is this. 269 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:16,280 This repetition is going to help you see and to do and help you 270 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:20,920 make your way prosperous and help you deal wisely and have 271 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:24,160 good success. That's part of repetition is 272 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,320 forced to help lead you on the path of success. 273 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:32,040 So so this is 1 example where God is telling us repetition is 274 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:35,000 not the problem, it's vain repetition that's the problem. 275 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:41,400 One of the ways it's going to help you have good success is 276 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,080 because repetition helps get it in you. 277 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:48,200 It's not I'm not God heard it the first time. 278 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:55,320 It was his idea that repetition helps me to remember. 279 00:15:55,320 --> 00:16:02,960 It helps get it inside of me. So when I I'm under pressure, 280 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,560 the truth comes out, not doubt and unbelief. 281 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,000 Repetition helps get it inside of me. 282 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,760 I was talking with some people the other day and and it's like 283 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:19,200 this you got, you got. I thought the picture was 284 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,960 helpful. If somebody used a picture, can 285 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,200 I, can you come up here? Sir, I want you to be the middle 286 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:30,720 here, OK? Can I have you come up here? 287 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,280 Sir, You're like what? Yes. 288 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,600 Look, Mom on stage. OK? 289 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:43,440 And and and I'm have try. Come on. 290 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:50,520 It's my brother right here. I know. 291 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:52,880 They let me just butcher stuff. I'm like that guy, like I'm 292 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,160 borderline kind of like. Does he know someone needs to 293 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:56,360 tell him I'm borderline like that. 294 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:57,200 I get it. I get it. 295 00:16:58,120 --> 00:16:59,880 OK. Ready. 296 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:07,599 Spirit, soul, body. OK, You got it. 297 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,880 Whenever you have to repeat something, you have to engage 298 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,359 This. OK? 299 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,880 Technically, you engage at all. That's why speaking is so 300 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,599 important. Speaking your faith, declaring 301 00:17:20,599 --> 00:17:23,520 your faith, lifting your voice and praise and worship. 302 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,520 If you just keep it on the inside, your spirit man got it. 303 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:33,000 OK, but when you begin to think about it, now your soul got it. 304 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:34,960 Your soul is your mind, your will, and your emotions. 305 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,840 Not your soul got it. But when you begin to say it, 306 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:43,200 not all three, you got it. And the Bible says the threefold 307 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:47,720 core is not easily broken out of the mouths of two or three 308 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:52,360 witnesses, one witness, 2 witness, 3 witnesses. 309 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:57,520 Let every word be established. OK, So speaking it is really 310 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,400 important. So when you're speaking it and 311 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,720 repeating it verbally, OK, you, you, you engage in this part. 312 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,240 So the more you engage this part, the more it begins to go 313 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,480 this way and begins to penetrate. 314 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,440 And now your souls being renewed by it all the time. 315 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,000 Now, the goal isn't to stop here. 316 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,680 The goal is to go through your soul, right? 317 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,320 And then begin to penetrate to your spirit. 318 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,960 See, your spirit is like a gusher of glory. 319 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,640 You know, I've heard of oil wells, you know, on TV and 320 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,920 Usher, when the oil comes up, your spirit is a gusher of 321 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,360 glory. It's a gusher of the Kingdom. 322 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,240 And there's this barrier here between your spirit and your 323 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,440 soul, OK? Because your soul is not renewed 324 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:47,560 yet, right? But when you repeat, you're 325 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,120 getting it deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper, 326 00:18:50,120 --> 00:18:53,280 deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper till it penetrates here. 327 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,080 And once it penetrates your spirit, if anything, your spirit 328 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,000 is doing this. Your spirit's trying to help 329 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,160 pull it through. Come on, keep coming. 330 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,200 Keep coming. Because once you penetrate here, 331 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:08,080 I said gusher of glory, right? You poke it fully, this begins 332 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:12,520 to flow out automatically. It's your reality. 333 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,440 OK, Thank you. Thank you, gentlemen. 334 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:21,520 So from that, So from that standpoint, repetition helps me 335 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:26,640 get it helps get it in me. And sometimes too vain 336 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:32,240 repetition is when you doing disengaged repetition when 337 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,840 you're just saying something, your head is like, you know the 338 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:36,640 great thing about being a professional singer. 339 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,640 Like I said that like I've been doing it for a lot of years, 340 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,960 have I? The great thing is when you're 341 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:50,040 really high level, you can give a concert that blows people's 342 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,520 minds the whole time thinking about your grocery list. 343 00:19:55,160 --> 00:20:01,760 When you're highly skilled, vein repetition means in disengaged 344 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:07,720 repetition as well. Right, so when you just saying 345 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,200 got favorite God surrounds me like the shield, favorite God 346 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,080 surrounds me like the shield, favorite God surrounds me like 347 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,000 the shield that can be vain repetition. 348 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:18,160 Why what is my soul doing? Remember my mouth is speaking. 349 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:23,840 What's my soul doing right now? Engage repetition is this in 350 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,920 favor of God surrounds me like a shield and in my soul I'm 351 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,720 picturing the favor of God covering me. 352 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,400 I'm picturing the favor of God working on my behalf. 353 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,760 I'm picturing the favor of God doing things and going places. 354 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,960 I'm picturing a favor on me coming on you so you can do what 355 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,760 you need to do. Now my repetition has been 356 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,800 elevated now because I'm engaging my soul, I'm engaging 357 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,440 my, the rest of me to be thinking about what God is 358 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,120 saying, what God is doing. OK. 359 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:55,200 That's what that repetition does is to get it inside of you, to 360 00:20:55,520 --> 00:21:00,160 sustain you, to help you be what you need to be, to help get you 361 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,240 through the tough times, to help you get through the difficult 362 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,600 times, but help you get up off the bat. 363 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,520 I said this example one time before Muhammad Ali call 364 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,720 themselves a champion. Whatever you think about him, 365 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,320 I'm the greatest, I'm the greatest, I'm the greatest. 366 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,000 He got knocked down one time on the on the canvas. 367 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,480 I believe this story's accurate because I'm telling him knocked 368 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,960 down on the canvas. He hadn't been knocked down very 369 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:26,480 much if it all up to that time he was on the canvas and what 370 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:31,200 came up inside of him is this basically the floor is no place 371 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,800 for a champion get up. He repeated. 372 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:40,160 He was the greatest so much that when he was down his Ripper 373 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:45,120 Titian called him to account OK and elevated him. 374 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:51,400 Go to Matthew Chapter 9 verse 2022 and we see a biblical 375 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:55,800 example of this. And behold, a woman who has 376 00:21:55,800 --> 00:22:00,080 suffered from a flow of blood for 12 years came up behind him, 377 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,680 Jesus, and touched the fringe of his garment. 378 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:07,760 For she kept saying to herself, for only touches garment, I 379 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:12,240 shall be restored to hell. All I got to do is touch him. 380 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:14,920 He loaded with power. He loaded with glory. 381 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,320 I know who he is. That takes out a vain 382 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:21,840 repetition. What I've got don't take much 383 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,760 for what he has. He's bigger, he's strong, He's 384 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:26,920 more able. I didn't hurt the word he 385 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,320 preached. Ready. 386 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,960 That's the positive side. That's like I'm walking on the 387 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,760 right side of life. Going to touch the hem of his 388 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:40,440 garment. OK, here's how it helps you when 389 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:41,960 you're walking on the dark side of life. 390 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,320 Touching the hem of his garment. She was bleeding, which means 391 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:47,640 she could have been legally stoned. 392 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,080 If you're bleeding, I don't know. 393 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,960 Medical people here can tell me your body can oftentimes be 394 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:57,880 weak. OK, so she's bleeding, and I 395 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,360 believe the picture somehow I got it was this. 396 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,400 She was crawling. She was making her way through a 397 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,480 throng of people. A weak, bleeding woman who'd 398 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:12,400 been bleeding 18 years is trying to make her way that it's when 399 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:16,760 you're trying to crawl through and the garment is there. 400 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:24,960 I can't get there. I gave it my best. 401 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,400 That's when what you keep saying. 402 00:23:33,120 --> 00:23:34,280 All I got to do is get to the helm. 403 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:38,280 Come on, I just got to get to the helm and I'll be whole. 404 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,920 It's that meditation that keeps you going. 405 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:45,480 It's that meditation that keeps pulling you through when you 406 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,240 want to quit. Sometimes you got it. 407 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,040 And sometimes, let me tell you, sometimes if you're in the midst 408 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:57,880 of your crawling and you find yourself having a pause, you're 409 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,880 not sitting, you standing if you really understand what standing 410 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:05,000 is. And that meditation would help 411 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:10,960 me stand take 5 because I know all I have to do is get to the 412 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,280 hem of the garment man. And I'm going to be home. 413 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:17,520 I know that. So I'm going to take 5 now and 414 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:22,160 watch all them 18 years going to roll away like a like a dust, 415 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:27,640 like a breath. Repetition helps you. 416 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:31,800 That's on the hard side of life. How repetition helps you, OK, 417 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:33,360 not just on the bright side of life. 418 00:24:34,360 --> 00:24:37,800 And So what we see here is that this repetition is essential for 419 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,640 us finishing the good fight of faith. 420 00:24:40,360 --> 00:24:44,600 It's for us finishing the things Jesus the prophesied is coming 421 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:48,600 for 2000 years. Do you think people got tired of 422 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:55,360 talking about him coming? What keeps you going? 423 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,040 Lord? I just look at your word and I 424 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,280 just know you promised a savior. He's going to bruise the head 425 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:02,960 and the enemy. That's all I know. 426 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:04,720 So I'm going to keep declaring it. 427 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,840 I'm going to keep telling myself I'm not trying to get you to 428 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,080 move. I'm trying to get me to remember 429 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:13,040 and I'm trying to get the next generation to remember that when 430 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,760 I, like Joseph, died before I get to the promised land. 431 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,760 This is my son here. And I say to my son, I'm passing 432 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:20,800 on now. I haven't seen the promise. 433 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,360 The promise is still true. I'm passing on my repetition. 434 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,680 Love it to you. You continue to meditate on that 435 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,960 promise and go into that promise and you continue to declare that 436 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:32,680 promise. And if you don't see it, then 437 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:36,400 you pass it on to your kids and to the next generation because 438 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,560 we don't get there. If we can hold on to the promise 439 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,160 that make sense. That's what meditation does. 440 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:48,200 That's what that repetition does. 441 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:53,320 It helps us to do that. And so I thought it was 442 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,080 important to kind of cover that off. 443 00:25:56,760 --> 00:26:05,950 So when you are lady in the scripture, if you know at least 444 00:26:05,950 --> 00:26:09,790 if you're repeating it without vanity, when you're repeating it 445 00:26:09,790 --> 00:26:12,270 with substance and you're declaring it as you say, 446 00:26:12,270 --> 00:26:15,630 meditating on it and keep seeing and keep saying and keep saying 447 00:26:15,630 --> 00:26:19,830 what God has to say. I want to go to a few. 448 00:26:19,910 --> 00:26:25,390 And as I got into this, what I found out was interesting and 449 00:26:25,390 --> 00:26:34,360 that was it's everywhere. It's everywhere. 450 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:46,120 For example, Genesis 1/5, you can pop those up quick. 451 00:26:46,120 --> 00:26:48,360 If not move, be able to move pretty quick. 452 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,600 Genesis 15 says this. And God caught the light day in 453 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,560 the darkness called night. There was evening, there was 454 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:54,680 morning. One day. 455 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:59,960 Within there was two days, three days, four days, five days, six 456 00:26:59,960 --> 00:27:02,840 days, seven days. Go again one day. 457 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,320 That's repetition. God is repeating. 458 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:11,080 Any cycle is a repetition. Any system is a repetition. 459 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:13,880 For long as the earth remains, there should be what? 460 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,280 Seed time and harvest, seed time and harvest. 461 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:19,400 You're repeating, you're repeating. 462 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:25,880 You're repeating Joshua 6, three and four says this. 463 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,160 You should March around the enclosure. 464 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,320 All the men of war going around the city's Jericho. 465 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:39,320 This you should do for six days. And seven priests shall be the 466 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:43,040 orchestra of Ram's horns and the trumpets, and you shall March 467 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,680 around the enclosure 7 times, and then they're both the 468 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:49,800 trumpets. So repeat it one day, two days, 469 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,600 three days, four days, five days, six days. 470 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,200 And then when you think you're really tired on the 7th day, do 471 00:27:56,200 --> 00:28:00,480 it 7 times that day. This repetition does something 472 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,200 in you. And when repetition does 473 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,720 something in you, the people can see something about you that 474 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:10,240 makes you different. They can understand that you 475 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,520 standing stronger than most people do. 476 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,880 There's a little waiver most folks have that you don't seem 477 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,520 to have. Where does that come from? 478 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:23,800 Sometimes my repetition is trying to get it in me to adapt 479 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,800 that I can not only be strong for me, I can be strong for you. 480 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:38,680 Second Kings 13/18/19 says this. The life of the prophet was ill, 481 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,360 getting ready to pass away for whatever was on him. 482 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,000 He told the king, Shoot the arrow through the window and 483 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,080 then he said take the arrows. He took them and he said to the 484 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,040 king of Israel, strike on the ground and he struck three times 485 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,320 and stopped. And the man of God was angry 486 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,480 with him. The man is dying. 487 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,120 Dying. Prophets don't really have time 488 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,320 for anger, I don't think, unless it's really important. 489 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,200 I mean really understand folk typically when they die, they're 490 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,200 not like getting angry at. They're like, man, I'm done, 491 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,240 Whatever y'all's on y'all. I did my part. 492 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:14,640 That's on you. OK, but the man of God was angry 493 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:17,760 with him and said you should have struck 5 or 6 times. 494 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,600 You should have kept repeating, you should have kept repeating. 495 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,160 You should have kept repeating. Then you would have struck down 496 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:24,440 Syria until you had destroyed it. 497 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,240 Your enemies. You'd have gotten it so deep 498 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,320 into your bloodline that your whole Kingdom would never see 499 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:33,520 that enemy ever again. It's not about changing God. 500 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:34,920 It's about getting it deep in me. 501 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,160 Second Chronicles 2021 through 22. 502 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:45,280 This is the one with Jehoshaphat. 503 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:47,880 It's trying to figure out what to do. 504 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:51,440 It's surrounded by armies, praise to seek God and gets a 505 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:52,880 word from the Lord, a prophetic word. 506 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,320 Everyone say prophetic word as to what to do. 507 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,240 And the prophetic word was go send out singers in front of the 508 00:29:58,240 --> 00:29:59,200 army. I got this one. 509 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,080 This one's on me. It's like when you go to the 510 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,520 restaurant and he said, hey, compliments of the shelf, it's 511 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,040 on him. See guys, this one's on me. 512 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:08,120 I'm going to take care of this battle. 513 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,640 OK, So they said this, the appointed singers, because up to 514 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:14,280 the people pointed singers went out before him. 515 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:18,320 This is what they said. Give thanks to the Lord for His 516 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,480 mercy and love and kindness and do it forever. 517 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:25,200 That's how we read it. Let me take you to the Psalm 518 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:27,240 that I believe they were declaring. 519 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:32,400 That's Psalm 136. And if I use all my time, the 520 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,800 rest of my time doing this Psalm, then it's well worth it. 521 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,320 I want to go through that one in detail. 522 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:47,000 So this is what they were singing, Psalm 136. 523 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:50,440 Let's get what you're playing there, man. 524 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:57,280 Give thanks to the Lord for He is good and his love endures. 525 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,160 That's what they told him. That's that's the part we hear. 526 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:05,040 OK, but this the Psalm they were singing. 527 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:08,360 Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good and his love endures 528 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:09,080 forever. Go back. 529 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,200 Give thanks to the God of gods for his mercy and love and 530 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:18,440 kindness endure forever. Give thanks to the Lord of Lords 531 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,960 for his mercy and love and kindness, Endure forever. 532 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:27,320 Keep going to Him alone does great wonders for His mercy and 533 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:31,480 love and kindness endure forever to Him by wisdom and 534 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:33,680 understanding. Make the heavens for His mercy 535 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,360 and love and kindness and do forever to Him. 536 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,520 We stretched out the earth upon the waters for His mercy and 537 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,400 love and kindness and do forever to Him. 538 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,640 We'll make the great lights for His mercy and love and kindness 539 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:49,120 and do forever. The sun, the rule over the day 540 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:53,280 to go back in Genesis for His mercy and love and kindness and 541 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:56,320 do forever.

For his mercy and love and 548 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:19,200 kindness endure forever. The game will divide the rest. 549 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,400 See in the parts. For his mercy and love and 550 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,600 kindness endure forever. And to Israel made Israel to 551 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:28,080 pass through the midst of it. For his mercy and kindness 552 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,200 endure forever. But shook often overthrew 553 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:35,400 Pharaoh and his host into the Red Sea With mercy and loving 554 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,360 kindness. Endure forever to Campbell. 555 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:42,000 Let his people through the wilderness with mercy and loving 556 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,760 kindness and do forever.

Got receipts. 561 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:04,160 Shah, king of the Amorites, he slayed them was mercy and 562 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:08,520 kindness and do forever. And all the king of Asia was 563 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:12,160 mercy and love and kindness and do forever and gave their land 564 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:16,800 as a heritage was mercy and loving kindness and do forever. 565 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,880 Even a heritage to Israel is serving was mercy and loving 566 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:26,360 kindness do forever to Him who remembered US in our lowest 567 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,440 stage and it printed us on his heart. 568 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:34,520 For his loving mercy and loving kindness endure forever and 569 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:38,160 rescued us from our enemies. For his mercy and loving 570 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:43,320 kindness endure forever to give who gives food to all flesh. 571 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:47,480 Those that love Him, those that don't for His mercy and loving 572 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,400 kindness and do a favor. Bring it down just a bit. 573 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,200 Keep going. Is that it? 574 00:33:56,720 --> 00:34:00,800 OK now you know what they did, bring it down a little bit. 575 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,720 You know what they did when they got the 1st 26? 576 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:09,080 They went back to first one. Give thanks to the Lord for He 577 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:13,199 is good. That's repetition. 578 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:18,120 It is kept repeating and giving testimony because I've got to 579 00:34:18,159 --> 00:34:22,360 fulfill prophetic word after prophetic word after prophetic 580 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:27,280 word after prophetic word. And it was on the basis of that 581 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:32,760 repetition that the enemy was slain, on the basis of that 582 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,679 repetition that the enemy was subdued. 583 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,760 Connect this verse with the one with the arrows. 584 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:43,800 What if they only did it one time? 585 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:47,400 Would the enemy have been destroyed? 586 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:52,000 I don't know. But if I look at the arrows 587 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:56,560 verse, it suggests to me that it was a partnership, that God was 588 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:59,600 doing this part. And as we kept declaring who he 589 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,360 was, he's like, man, yeah, we're going to do some more. 590 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,280 I'm with you. Come on, give me something to 591 00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:06,480 ride on. Give me something to know that 592 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,680 you're with us that you with me I know I'm with you. 593 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,480 Give me something else so I can know that you with me. 594 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,960 There ain't no father doing this by myself. 595 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:23,160 Let's ride together you making sense repetition and have a seat 596 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:30,160 repetition. Proverbs 2416 says this. 597 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:35,520 You need to be have repetition to get up to for a righteous man 598 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:39,280 falls 7 times and he rises again. 599 00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:43,680 He don't stay down, he gets up, he repeatedly gets up. 600 00:35:44,720 --> 00:35:47,320 He don't quit on himself or herself. 601 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:53,680 Repetition is to help you not only do the good you need to do, 602 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,760 but to make the comeback from the from the bad that maybe 603 00:35:56,760 --> 00:36:05,520 you've done as well. Matthew 633 says seek me. 604 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,280 Now I'm a blaze through a few of these here, so don't try to keep 605 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:11,560 up. Pro presenter Matthew 633 talks 606 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:14,560 about seeking me first. Keep seeking the Lord. 607 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:17,560 Basically seek me first of my Kingdom and my righteousness. 608 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:19,400 That word seek me. Keep seeking. 609 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,960 Seek and seek and seek and seek and seek and seek and seek and 610 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:26,360 seek and seek and seek and seek. Keep seeking repeatedly. 611 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:30,160 Keep seeking. Luke 11/8 says this, that there 612 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:34,880 was a man that came and wanted some, wanted some food for his 613 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:36,720 friends in the middle of the night. 614 00:36:36,720 --> 00:36:38,400 And he knocked and he knocked and he knocked. 615 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:40,960 And the man said, Brian, sleep, it's too late. 616 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:45,720 The guy kept knocking, kept repeating his commander, come 617 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,960 unto me. And the man got up and says, 618 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:52,640 this man, because of your importunity, I won't get up with 619 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,720 importunity. He won't go away. 620 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:56,800 He won't stop. You persisted. 621 00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:00,120 Can you consistently continue to repeat it? 622 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,560 Luke 18, four. So there's the widow that wanted 623 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:08,360 justice from an unjust judge and the unjust judge says this. 624 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:09,760 I'm going to give you what you want woman. 625 00:37:10,240 --> 00:37:13,320 I don't fear neither God nor man, but you're going to wear me 626 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:17,480 out with your repeated coming to me based on the justice you 627 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,600 believe God has desired for you. So I'm going to give you what 628 00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:22,200 you want. The Lord has spare me 629 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,560 repetition. You have good success even in 630 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:31,360 the courthouse. John 15 says this, that the 631 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:34,640 angels are going back and forth. Jesus, you see the angels going 632 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:37,200 back and forth. As I'm doing my ministry, the 633 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,000 angels, I'm making this one trip. 634 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:45,320 They're making repeated trips. Repetition John 2115 says Jesus 635 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:48,080 said this to Peter after he said do you love me? 636 00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:52,040 He repeated it three times to let him know that the love you 637 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:53,600 have for me I know you have for me. 638 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:55,680 Brother we good, let's get up and go. 639 00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:58,760 Win the Kingdom, win the world for the Kingdom of God. 640 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:04,080 Ephesians 518 says be filled with the Spirit, which means 641 00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:07,280 continue to be filled, be ye filled, be filled be filled, be 642 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:12,720 filled, be filled. Repetition again Ephesians 618 643 00:38:12,720 --> 00:38:15,120 says with all manner of prayer you pray. 644 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:17,200 That means pray with every kind of prayer. 645 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:19,280 When you finish with this kind of prayer, pray the next kind of 646 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:20,520 prayer. When you finish the next kind of 647 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:24,240 prayer, use all the prayers, continuing to pray all manner of 648 00:38:24,240 --> 00:38:27,280 prayer. Philippians 4 through verse 4, 649 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,920 four says this rejoice. And again I say rejoice, 650 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,720 rejoice. And again I say rejoice. 651 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:37,760 Once you rejoice, repeat it. Once you rejoice, repeat it and 652 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:42,560 then Revelations 4/8 put that one up. 653 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:45,960 Hopefully what you can see is this. 654 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:52,240 The prophetic word that we got was don't put it up yet real 655 00:38:52,240 --> 00:38:52,920 quick. Let's get it ready. 656 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,320 The prophetic word we got was the hardest thing you're going 657 00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:00,080 to need to do to this year is to stand because in order to stand, 658 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:04,320 you don't have to repeat the fundamentals and you get people 659 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:07,360 get tired of repeating the fundamentals. 660 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:11,620 It was hard to stand because standing ain't sexy, quote UN 661 00:39:11,620 --> 00:39:13,240 quote. It's not something new and fresh 662 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,840 every day. Mercy endures forever. 663 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,720 His mercy endures forever. His mercy endures forever. 664 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,560 His mercy endures forever. You submit that song, the song 665 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:22,760 he said, man, it's too repetitive. 666 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,560 We can't use that. You got to ask some different 667 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,640 lyrics in there, bro. You got mercy endures forever 668 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:32,720 every line. People get tired, tired. 669 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:37,400 That's why it's hard to stand. But if you can't give yourself 670 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:41,680 to the repetition that's required to get it in you, to 671 00:39:41,720 --> 00:39:44,880 the punctures, your spirit and that glory gusher can flow 672 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:49,120 through man. You see everything God has 673 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:53,000 promised. And this is the last example 674 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:56,560 repetition I want to give of why it's so important to stand, 675 00:39:56,760 --> 00:40:00,400 because it's a repetition that helps you to stand so well. 676 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:02,360 Then it brings you to your knees. 677 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:08,160 Revelations 4, Revelations 4 and the four living creatures. 678 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:12,360 This is around the throne of God individually having 6 wings were 679 00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:15,680 full of eyes all over and day and night. 680 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:21,880 They never stop saying holy, holy, holy is the Lord God 681 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,840 Almighty who was and is and is to come. 682 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:31,200 That's all they got is that one course day and night keep going. 683 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:38,000 That's verse it goes on to say this and as they begin to do 684 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:41,680 that, the glory of God feels that it feels the atmosphere and 685 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:45,120 the 12 and the 12 and 24 elders or whoever the elders were the 686 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,640 numbers that was there. They begin to kneel down, take 687 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,400 their crowns, put them on the ground and everybody begins to 688 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,680 become prostate and begins to worship God. 689 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:58,160 That repetition in that space began to magnify and amplify the 690 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:00,400 presence of God in a, in a, in a great way. 691 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:04,200 I'll close with this example for you here about the power of that 692 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:08,800 We talked about in prayer that whipped cream don't come out 693 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:10,520 like in a camp. Besides me. 694 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:15,200 Whipped cream is liquid. But then you take a whisk, which 695 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,680 is like a light bulb, like a wire light book and light bulb. 696 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:19,320 I know folk don't cook here. I get that right. 697 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,200 We skip the dishes. I need a whisk. 698 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,200 He said that in church. I need to get a whisk, right. 699 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:30,680 So you take the whisk and you put it in the liquid and you 700 00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:34,520 begin to repeatedly stir it. You got to keep repeating it, 701 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:39,080 and it stays liquid for a while. But then after a while it begins 702 00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:42,000 to thicken. And the great thing about it 703 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,760 thickening this is that now I can really spread it. 704 00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:49,760 See the liquid. If I put the liquid on her, it's 705 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,240 going to run down her nice coat and she's going to be mad. 706 00:41:52,240 --> 00:41:56,520 Have to forgive me, right? But when I get the whipped 707 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,800 cream, I can take it. Put your hand out and put, put 708 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:01,800 some on your hand and now you get some. 709 00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:04,440 Put your hand out. I can put some on your hand and 710 00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:07,840 put something on your hand. The repetition increases the 711 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,920 thickness of the anointing and the presence of God on your 712 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,000 life.
