Let's get into it. 9 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,160 All right, Father, we just thank you for today. 10 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:48,960 Thank you for your word. We thank you for our House of 11 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,200 praise. Thank you for our House of 12 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:52,680 prayer. Thank you for our House of 13 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,480 miracles. Thank you for our House of 14 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,200 honor. Thank you for house where the 15 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:04,160 fear of God. Rest Before I dive into this I 16 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:05,480 want to pose some of your questions. 17 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:06,840 Be good for you to write it down. 18 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,520 What if I was to tell you that what you are calling just a 19 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:22,280 season, it is just a cycle and what you are calling a season is 20 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:26,040 merely a cycle? And if you blame it on seasons. 21 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:33,040 You will find that you will remain in a cycle year after 22 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:38,640 year because seasons change with time. 23 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:49,640 Cycles change when you do. The waiting that God is talking 24 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:54,280 about is for seasons. To wait on the Lord is to wait 25 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:58,680 for His timing in a season. But when you are stuck in 26 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,920 cycles, even God can't force you out. 27 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:10,000 And what I know about cycles is a lot of time. 28 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,640 Cycles have been planted long time ago. 29 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,760 Some cycles are generational, but because. 30 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,120 You. Increase in knowledge. 31 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:28,600 The enemy knows in some areas, although you are not free, you 32 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:34,360 are at least no longer ignorant. I'm going to say it this way, 33 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:41,880 you can actually be no longer ignorant in the area, but still 34 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:46,320 bound. I think the worst kind of bound 35 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:52,000 is when you know better. You got the word, you got a 36 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,800 village, you got worship, It's it's you got the armor. 37 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,560 But then you're still stuck in cycles. 38 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,000 And I know you don't have to raise your hand, but some of you 39 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:11,560 in here, and I've been there, when you're asking yourself why 40 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:16,520 am I still stuck or how did this happen again? 41 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,040 Right. Let me tell you, when you're 42 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:24,360 younger, it happens faster. When you get wiser, the enemy 43 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,560 can't expose himself for a while. 44 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:33,480 But I do know about the enemy. Although he is stupid, he's also 45 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:40,560 very strategic. And here's one thing, he does 46 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,720 have patience. See, enemy doesn't care if 47 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,800 things are all good for 20 years. 48 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:54,120 But in year 21, here's why you see churches lately. 49 00:03:55,120 --> 00:04:02,360 Pastor of 35 years sits himself down, enemies waiting. 50 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,200 He's like go. Ahead, go ahead. 51 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,680 You know, if you if you like a real champion, you play against 52 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,680 the team that beats you and they over there celebrate like they 53 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:15,600 won the championship. They only beat a champion and 54 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,519 you over there, like I can't wait to see them again. 55 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:24,160 There's some things that you are calling a season and you're 56 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,040 waiting on the Lord and you now you're turning to get upset at 57 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:33,120 Him because it ain't changing because cycles only change when 58 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,600 you do. And just because you have more 59 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:41,760 knowledge, it does not equate. To transformation. 60 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:54,480 Because God is so true, He is so pure, He is so holy, and His 61 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,240 word does not change. That means that the things that 62 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:05,880 He has promised us only work through the worked word. 63 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:14,600 You cannot pull God into your carnal desires asking Him to 64 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:21,160 make divine moves. So we'll just work hard for the 65 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:27,320 rest of our lives because we put call on the back burner and we 66 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,560 pursued what talents and gifts can get us. 67 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:38,400 You don't need God to get a job. You don't need God to be 68 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:44,880 wealthy. The question in lies What are 69 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,160 you really after in your pursuit? 70 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,360 What do you really want that education for? 71 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,000 What do you really want to start the business for? 72 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,200 What do you really want to be married for? 73 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,240 What do you really want wealth for? 74 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,280 What do you really want a church home for? 75 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,600 What do you really want a small group for? 76 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,680 What do you really want a divorce for? 77 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:04,960 What do you really want to get out of this for? 78 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,080 What do you really want to get into that for? 79 00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:09,040 What do you want to change your career for? 80 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,240 Why do you want to move for? What do you want kids for? 81 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:13,800 Why do you want people to see you? 82 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,480 Why? Why do you want to downsize? 83 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,520 Why do you want to upgrade? What's your why and all the 84 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,400 movements of your life? Why, Why, what? 85 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,280 What are you desiring that for? What do you think is going to 86 00:06:26,280 --> 00:06:29,720 change in your life if Blank shows up? 87 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:35,320 What do you need it for? What do you want job security? 88 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,560 Financial security for? I get it. 89 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,840 It's practical. It takes care of a lot of 90 00:06:39,840 --> 00:06:41,480 things. Bible tells you that money 91 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:47,800 solves a lot of problems. But when I get to the financial 92 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,960 freedom, when I get the husband, when I get the wife, when I get 93 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:56,280 the job, when I move to where it's it's only sunny and it 94 00:06:56,280 --> 00:06:59,000 barely rains. When I move to the United 95 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,760 States, when I move overseas, when I go back home, when I get 96 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:08,480 accepted in that college. Now, what Have you found you 97 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,480 yet? Are you looking for you? 98 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:18,280 Here's what the Bible says. Believe it or not, where you 99 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:22,680 find where you will find you is in Him. 100 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,320 Here it is. He didn't say you will find you 101 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:31,480 at Him. Lot of people go to the altar 102 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:38,000 and fall at His feet, but never let Him move in, and they don't 103 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,000 move into Him. John 15, Abide in me. 104 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,960 Let my Word abide in you. Let My Word live in you. 105 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,440 Let My Word take His shoes off and have His way. 106 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,120 Let my Word not need a key for your life. 107 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:04,600 And here's where we are in trouble as the church Revival 108 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:08,920 starts at the church. Global change starts at the 109 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,840 church. Culture change and shift starts 110 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:24,550 at the church. God's going to say some really 111 00:08:24,550 --> 00:08:32,630 clear things today. He that has ears, let him hear 112 00:08:35,030 --> 00:08:39,230 Jesus. Is calling his bride higher? 113 00:08:39,230 --> 00:08:44,920 Somebody say higher, higher. So the Spirit is taking the 114 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:50,680 church deeper, say deeper. Now how many people ever 115 00:08:50,680 --> 00:08:54,240 remember? See, I'm like church, church 116 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:55,920 boy. Kind of, but I don't think you 117 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,720 need to be a church boy or girl to know or hear like the 118 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,520 movement of grace, right? The movement of grace or if 119 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,880 anybody heard of the Word of Faith movement or. 120 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:10,520 You see the movement and restoration of the gift of 121 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:15,960 evangelists with Billy Graham's time, right? 122 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:19,400 You see the teaching kind of moving around. 123 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,040 Say what you want, right? Because there will. 124 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,520 When there's a restoration of a gift in the earth, there will 125 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:31,080 always be perversion involved. But the teaching gift began to 126 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:37,000 be restored around. You see the Word of Faith 127 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:41,840 movement, a Kenneth Hagin, a Kenneth Copeland, a in certain 128 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:47,760 communities, you see Creflo Dollar Doctor Price and and so 129 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,280 on and so on and so on. Jensen Franklin like there's 130 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:56,640 real emphasis on slow down. It's time to teach, not just 131 00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:01,960 preach. OK, so there's always in our 132 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:06,400 time going to be a restoration of gifts. 133 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:11,720 Bible says the last shall be 1st and the 1st shall be last in the 134 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,920 Bible. The Bible says he set these 135 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,960 gifts in the church. First apostle. 136 00:10:17,680 --> 00:10:22,280 The last gift that will be restored is the most vital gift 137 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:27,200 because it is the only gift that can bring the church, the bride, 138 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:37,560 through the ribbon. The first gift will be last, but 139 00:10:37,560 --> 00:10:43,320 the goal is that all gifts before that will be established 140 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:49,040 because the gift of the Apostle and the Apostolic Church can 141 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:57,680 function in all 5 gifts. So what you're going to see in 142 00:10:57,680 --> 00:11:01,080 these last days is the rise, right? 143 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,480 You even look at where the Bible says these are the days of 144 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,520 Elijah. The spirit of Elijah will rise 145 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,960 up in the last day, starting with Jesus himself. 146 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,680 But when we look at who Elijah was in the Bible, what was he 147 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:21,440 prophet? When you look at Malachi, it 148 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:25,120 closes by letting you know that the latter day revival will be 149 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:32,520 sons and daughters coming home, spiritual fathers rising up, and 150 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:37,040 we are no longer prophesying to scare you or to curse you. 151 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:45,040 But the prophetic will always in the last days be a word that is 152 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:49,800 meant for restoration, that is bringing redemption, and that is 153 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:54,840 bringing order back to the Kingdom and it is getting the 154 00:11:54,840 --> 00:12:02,960 bride back in its sent posture. The church started as a movement 155 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:07,920 and will forever be a movement. And the goal was not you find a 156 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:12,240 church home, the goal was you find your way back home. 157 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:18,520 The garden, Garden realities Kingdom, living citizens led by 158 00:12:18,560 --> 00:12:22,520 the Holy Spirit, the governor of the Kingdom of God. 159 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,560 That's the goal. It was not. 160 00:12:26,560 --> 00:12:31,280 You find a church home and you get comfortable and you find a 161 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:37,520 platform for your gifts and you ride until you die. 162 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:46,840 So we are going from the movement of grace, which a. 163 00:12:47,680 --> 00:12:52,720 Lot of churches were grown off of that message and it's some 164 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:58,840 powerful ministries. Pastor Joseph Prince man so all 165 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:03,120 he talk about is grace. Creflo Dollar went from a 166 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:11,120 prosperity preacher, tons of persecution, anointed teacher, 167 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:17,760 anointed pastor to now flipping it and his whole ministry is 168 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:23,600 about the grace of God. His pivoting point was I found 169 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:31,040 out that you're not cursed for not tithing and the way I 170 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:37,600 preached tithing was not sound, although you should tithe, but 171 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:42,360 we tithe under grace. The man repented and everybody 172 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,280 that wanted their money back, he gave it back for all the 173 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:53,520 naysayers. God's doing something in the 174 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:58,400 earth, but He is not coming back for a bride that's laying down, 175 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:02,680 looking for Pats on the back and having a pity party and just 176 00:14:02,680 --> 00:14:07,480 saturated in love. Because when you really get a 177 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,280 revelation of His love, it gives you marching. 178 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:14,080 Orders. Right when you really understand 179 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,160 his love, you don't mind carrying your cross daily. 180 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,760 That's Bible. What are, do we got some people 181 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:21,560 here because they believe in the Bible? 182 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,720 Do we have some people in here who want to know more about what 183 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:26,720 Jesus said? And lastly, do we have people 184 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,560 here who actually want to follow Jesus or you just want him to 185 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,840 help you? I heard a bunch right there. 186 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:40,880 Yeah. Oh, we're going from grace to 187 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:46,640 grown-ups, right? It is children in covenant 188 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:51,920 children only see themselves and they will get mad at a parent 189 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,040 for not doing like extra self. Like I tell my, oh God, 190 00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:01,600 actually, I do have to feed you. I do have to provide you 191 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:02,840 shelter. I don't got to buy you school 192 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,560 clothes. I I do need to feed you, but I 193 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:14,320 don't need to have seconds. Now, now, there's enough in our 194 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:15,640 house. You get seconds, thirds, 195 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:19,160 fourths, fifths, but kids only think it's about them. 196 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,560 What we're going to see today is that's the same in the body of 197 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:27,280 Christ. You think, and let me put it 198 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:32,120 this way, how many of our prayer lives is all about God, help me 199 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,360 save me. Why is this happening? 200 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,440 What are we doing? Where are we going? 201 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:37,560 Why? Who? 202 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,000 Me? No breakthrough. 203 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:45,160 Listen, Lord, send me, I'll go. Lord, send me a husband, send me 204 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,480 a wife. Lord, give me eyes to see who my 205 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,880 next where my next is. It's all about you, your 206 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,000 desires, where you want to go, how you interpret your gifts and 207 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,440 dreams in God's timing. It's all about blessing you. 208 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,560 Show me the building, give me the keys, give me the car. 209 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:00,720 Give me all this. Give me the give me the give me 210 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:01,920 the give me the give me the give me. 211 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:07,480 That's a kid. And when the kid don't get it, 212 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:14,600 what do they do? House I grew up in. 213 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:16,280 You going? You going to stump? 214 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:33,910 Light and soft, right? There's this entitlement in the 215 00:16:33,910 --> 00:16:41,270 church. There's this severe lukewarmness 216 00:16:41,270 --> 00:16:46,960 in the church. And we are distracted by the 217 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:56,680 very blessings that we ask for, and the blessings of the Lord is 218 00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:04,119 pulling us away from what He's called us to do. 219 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:09,079 And So what we do is we go where the blessing takes us and then 220 00:17:09,079 --> 00:17:15,400 sprinkle call in it. Well, I, well, I, well at my 221 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:21,760 job, I minister to people. OK, but there's a house that God 222 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,480 has called you to. And I tell you this all the 223 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,800 time, if this ain't your hot man, find the tribe. 224 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:31,560 Wherever you go, I pray you still understand that Jesus is 225 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:35,560 calling you to be discipled and make disciples. 226 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:41,840 And you are to make disciples in the way he has taught disciples 227 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,360 to be made. You are too disciple in his 228 00:17:45,360 --> 00:17:51,160 message, his structure, his strategy, his purpose, His will. 229 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,120 He's calling us to grow up. Somebody say grow up. 230 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:03,160 The movement of grace was preparing us for the movement of 231 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,760 growing up. Here's here's what I mean. 232 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,600 Ephesians 3 says. I pray that you be rooted in 233 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:21,320 what there's so many things that God wants to reveal to you on 234 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:28,440 your walk with Him that He can because your roots don't exist 235 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,920 or they're very shallow. Go to Mark. 236 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:32,000 We've read that. Scripture. 237 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:36,400 The different types of soil. Some receive the word, they're 238 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,960 excited, but they only hang around, they only get it for a 239 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,400 little while because they had no real roots in them in the first 240 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,600 place. So sometimes you just got to 241 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,240 wait overtime, you begin to see people waver. 242 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,440 You see people when they got time hungry for call, right? 243 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,360 The God's dealing with, they don't got a job, they don't got 244 00:18:52,360 --> 00:18:54,680 the business off the ground. And so now they're curious in 245 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,000 like God's calling them. And you, you talk to people 246 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,800 about call and then things pop off and then what happens? 247 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,320 And then it's like, oh, I got less time for call. 248 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,120 And what I do see is there's, there's a there, there's a when 249 00:19:06,120 --> 00:19:10,200 you walk with God, there's rhythm and what you need to 250 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,600 understand. It's not just all this whole 251 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,000 season and for the rest of my life, I got to learn how to 252 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,840 balance everything. No, you have to learn how to let 253 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:21,760 go of everything. That's not your job to really 254 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,160 balance it. It's for you to let it go. 255 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,520 And then he going to bring it to you and say, hey, we dancing 256 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,160 like this, right? We dancing like this and you 257 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,160 just got to get it. You might want to go like this. 258 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:34,280 And he like no, calm down. We dancing like this and we 259 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,640 going to go like this and we going to go like that and then 260 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,280 we going to pause and then we might go to the side and we 261 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,160 going to get some water. We ain't dancing right now. 262 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,560 You hear your favorite song and you like and he like. 263 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,760 Nah. That's not my favorite song. 264 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:56,000 Am I leading or you leading? And sometime you're on the dance 265 00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:00,400 floor by yourself because you just want to dance because it's 266 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:04,480 your groove, it's your season, it's your time, it's your, it's 267 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,000 your thing. It's this door open for you. 268 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,240 Sometime you need to walk through a door and look back and 269 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:11,520 see if God walked through with you. 270 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:18,960 I told somebody today and yesterday that God's hate is not 271 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,360 like our hate. So when he says he hates, it's 272 00:20:21,360 --> 00:20:24,720 not like he's bitter. His hate is jealous. 273 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:29,000 And so there's good things in your life that are happening, 274 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:34,600 but that good thing to you he hates because it's getting in 275 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:39,280 the way of you and him. He's not bitter. 276 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,360 He still loves you, but he's after you. 277 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,400 He's not after you. Constantly bringing him things 278 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:47,960 and Lord. Blow on it and. 279 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:56,680 Then we saw in, in, in Haggai, he said I blew on it when you, 280 00:20:56,920 --> 00:21:00,000 you better be careful asking me to blow on it because there's 281 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,520 things I blow on. And you left with nothing but 282 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:10,240 what I need you to have. It's the movement of grace and 283 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:14,440 that's why sometimes you go into seasons where it seemed like, I 284 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,800 don't know, I've been here before, but so many doors. 285 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,520 It was like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, 286 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:25,680 boom, boom, boom, and then it's almost like no doors opening it 287 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:27,720 see, it feels like no movement happening. 288 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,520 Am I can I get like two people that's been there before? 289 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:35,240 Where you right, it's like popping and then you build your 290 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,480 identity. You didn't know it, but you was 291 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,280 building your identity around the movement. 292 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:50,400 And then God just for a season was like and you have to wrestle 293 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,400 with yourself. And then in that season, if you 294 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:58,680 mature, your prayer language change and you start growing in 295 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,560 any sense people around you to match your thirst and your 296 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:04,600 hungry and give you a word. And you start realizing that for 297 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:07,280 some of you, here's a word for you and it's already start 298 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,200 popping. You starting to experience a 299 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,720 little bit of is he you like, Oh yeah, Oh yeah, it's coming. 300 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,960 It's about to start moving again, but you about to be a 301 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:20,640 whole different person. Them call back. 302 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,720 So what if they don't call back? Like Paul, I'm still good. 303 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,840 And then if you get that dream roll, I'm still good. 304 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,480 Now I can go on the scene and I'm not, I'm, I'm not, I'm not 305 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,040 going to be idolized in the famous person. 306 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,920 I'm going to realize the famous person actually need me. 307 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:38,760 God didn't have me here to get me rich. 308 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,440 He had me here to win a soul to somebody who was on their way to 309 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:45,040 hell in Hollywood. I'm bold and I'm that guy that's 310 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,000 bold enough. I can get in the trailer with 311 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,960 Denzel, get his autograph, but still be like, bro, you need my 312 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:56,600 autograph. Get get the selfie. 313 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:02,320 But God's been maturing some of you because where he's taking 314 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,920 you, you can't have your identity wrapped up in it. 315 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,400 Say it's time to grow up. Watch this, watch this. 316 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,360 Concerning this, we have much to say which is hard to explain. 317 00:23:15,360 --> 00:23:17,720 First, first experience if you double dip, but I know you heard 318 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:18,880 some of this, but you need to hear it again. 319 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:20,200 It's real rich. It's real rich. 320 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,920 Concerning this, we have much to say which is hard to explain 321 00:23:24,360 --> 00:23:29,240 since you have become dull in your spiritual hearing and 322 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:34,120 sluggish, even slothful in achieving spiritual insight. 323 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:41,440 He's saying, he's saying, look, man, church, you, you, you can't 324 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,280 really hear. You can't really see. 325 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:51,360 I've been talking. I've been warning for even 326 00:23:51,360 --> 00:23:56,000 though by this time, here it is for all us churchgoers by this 327 00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:00,560 time somebody shout out by this time, Nah, a little louder by 328 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:04,640 this time. By this time you ought to be 329 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:09,560 teaching others. You actually need someone to 330 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,120 teach you over again. Watch it. 331 00:24:12,120 --> 00:24:15,800 The very first principles of God's word. 332 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,320 Here it is here it is God. No matter how long it takes for 333 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:24,960 you, God is not in a rush. He will wait 15 years for your 334 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:29,520 foundation to be established. So while you like God, I did 335 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:33,360 this, I did that he like but but but but you still got holes in 336 00:24:33,360 --> 00:24:36,720 your foundation and I love you so much. 337 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:40,800 I am going to send elementary words that I know you've heard, 338 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:44,040 but you still got.

It was just like God's not going 367 00:26:55,800 --> 00:27:03,120 to change them so you can change or so it can be easier for you 368 00:27:03,120 --> 00:27:06,120 to change, meaning change them so they stop pushing my buttons. 369 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,120 No, he want to change you all by yourself. 370 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,680 By yourself, whether you together with somebody that he 371 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,480 won't he's all his plans never change just because you coupled 372 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,520 up. What about you? 373 00:27:21,360 --> 00:27:23,600 Well, you talk to me like that, so I'm going to talk Where's 374 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:25,520 that in the Bible? I'm just talking to Christians 375 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:29,160 today. Well, you ain't just going to 376 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:34,120 run over me. Are we Bible or are we not 377 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:36,960 right. How you cussing people out and 378 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:38,960 you read your daily devotional? Not devoted? 379 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:46,280 Not devoted. Why we're we're our daily 380 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:51,240 devotionals are topical versus where we are today. 381 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,440 I need a word today. I don't need the word 10 million 382 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,280 people reading today. I need a word for me today. 383 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,640 So I'm going to get up and the first thing going to come out of 384 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,160 my mouth is some tongues. I'm going to pray in tongues. 385 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,120 I need the Holy Ghost to lead me and guide me. 386 00:28:04,120 --> 00:28:05,600 I'm going to turn some worship music on. 387 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,320 I'm going to get out of me and I'm allowed the Holy Ghost to 388 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:14,680 lead me where He needs me because He knows what I need and 389 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:16,720 I'm not first thing going to do, go find my devote. 390 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,720 I'm going to scroll and get my inspiration. 391 00:28:22,120 --> 00:28:27,120 That's this generation Bible prophecy, sound doctrine. 392 00:28:27,120 --> 00:28:32,560 They will run from solid food. Watch this. 393 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,960 You ought to be teaching others. You actually need someone to 394 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:41,040 teach you over again the very first principles of God's word. 395 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:45,440 You have come to need milk, not solid food. 396 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:49,640 And as I mentioned, it's not just that the baby can't chew 397 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:55,360 steak, they can't digest it. So there's things that God want 398 00:28:55,360 --> 00:29:00,000 to get you onto, but you don't have the digestive system to 399 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,840 handle. This is why some people want a 400 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:06,240 pat on the back, don't want accountability because you can't 401 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,880 digest accountability because you have not gotten a lack of 402 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:16,360 trust out your belly. And then we put language around 403 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,080 it. No, it is what it is like. 404 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:33,880 Following Jesus is a vulnerable life for everyone who continues 405 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:39,120 to feed on milk is obviously inexperienced and unskilled in 406 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,600 the doctrine of righteousness of conformity to the divine will 407 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:46,960 and purpose thought and action for he is a mere infant, not 408 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:50,080 able to talk yet, but we talking. 409 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,680 Hey, look, look, look, I I I've had kids before. 410 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,480 Anybody else had kids before? If you haven't used you was a 411 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:01,080 kid one day, man, kids JT you brought you know, like like 412 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:07,880 people, kids say some outrageous stuff and and here's the crazy 413 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:11,760 part about kids, though, is they'll say it like they studied 414 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:15,480 it, like they got facts on this, like how dare you challenge me, 415 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:19,640 mom, I know this can work. You're eight. 416 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,760 You don't know nothing can work. You have not experienced this 417 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,160 before. I've experienced I failed at it 418 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:29,080 and succeeded at it and you got the audacity to tell me that it 419 00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:31,600 worked and you want me to back down from holding you 420 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:36,640 accountable to the thing and they're convicted by their truth 421 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:43,000 as kids. Kids live in so much error and 422 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,120 they're convinced that their rights. 423 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,240 And mom and dad is wrong. And what do they? 424 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,600 Do. They find friends that will 425 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:54,920 agree with them. That's what we do. 426 00:30:55,480 --> 00:31:00,840 We find churches, we find friends, we gossip, we murmur. 427 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,600 That's not new, though. That's why they didn't make it 428 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,960 out of the wilderness, because they was gossiping and murmuring 429 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:09,720 and putting a mouth on Moses. And that seed was planted and it 430 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,480 got through the the, the, the, the, the, the village, the 431 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,520 tribe, the children of Israel. And they didn't make it through 432 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,400 because God said in order to get into the I can't take this 433 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:23,560 toxicity into the promised land. And that's the season we're in. 434 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:31,040 There's a cutting coming and it's not the separation of the 435 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,960 church in the world. It's the separation from the 436 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:41,160 wolves and the sheep. And this is not PT saying this 437 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,240 is Bible. God even said I spew out the 438 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:48,400 lukewarm. God's not going to tell your 439 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:52,760 secrets. Your fruit is, am I talking to 440 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,640 somebody? Am I talking to anybody humble 441 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:58,040 enough to hear God today, to hear the word today, your fruit 442 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:01,160 is going to tell your secrets. God's not a snitch. 443 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,120 He got this out here like, hey, such and such. 444 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:13,160 You know God will allow me to see enemies tactics in the body 445 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,920 and then he'll give me a word. I don't need to know your 446 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,520 business if I got a word for your business because the word 447 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,880 is higher than your business. So all I got to do is speak the 448 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:26,640 word into the atmosphere and it's on you to hear or not. 449 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,920 Jesus told his disciples hey hey, hey he's like hey can you 450 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:32,960 why you don't why you speaking parables? 451 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:36,720 Why you don't just tell us Jesus like one of y'all going to 452 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:40,000 betray me? They like can't be talking about 453 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:41,400 me. You know, they was like who you 454 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:42,800 talking about? You know, somebody went up to 455 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:46,160 like you could tell me that I'm not the one that you could tell 456 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:52,040 me who it's going to be had he had these little conversations 457 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:59,280 and Jesus is like I said what I said, you got ears to hear or 458 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,240 you don't. Because the point of it is not 459 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:09,080 to follow an instruction. The point is to pursue him and 460 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:12,240 this is where Hellfire and brimstone generation and all 461 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,080 that, where it's like we scare you into the faith and you only 462 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:19,320 doing stuff because you want to, you want you, you scared, but 463 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,680 God's like, I love you too much. I'm not going to scare you 464 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,680 straight. Like I'm going to give you a 465 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,640 word you like you're going to listen or not. 466 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,280 You're going to purge your life so you can hear clear. 467 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,800 You're going to obey. You're going you're going to 468 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,120 allow me to train you. You're going to allow the people 469 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,240 I send in your life to hold you accountable. 470 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:39,280 We going to work together and I am going to get you to the place 471 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,720 that I need you and we're going to walk together like the old 472 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:46,160 days in the garden. I want my children back. 473 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:51,200 Or are you going to surround yourself with foolishness and 474 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,800 lies and murmuring and complaining? 475 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:57,880 You're going to miss it, but you're going to go to heaven. 476 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:04,800 That's it. When Jesus said here's the goal, 477 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:11,639 heaven on earth, so too when I return, I am restoring and 478 00:34:11,639 --> 00:34:13,719 there's going to be a brand new heaven and there's going to be a 479 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:17,120 brand new earth. We're not about to go float in 480 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:23,080 the sky, but we going to walk on this earth with restored bodies, 481 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:27,159 glorified bodies and we are going to live where there's no 482 00:34:27,159 --> 00:34:32,760 more death, there's no more tears, there's no more 483 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,920 hopelessness but those that reject him. 484 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:46,880 You ever been sick and then it got better and was like, I don't 485 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:50,400 need fire. What about being sick and never 486 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,960 being able to be healed? Well, what about having a 487 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:59,720 migraine that never leaves? Well, what about somewhere like 488 00:34:59,720 --> 00:35:02,160 walking down East Hastings and that's every block. 489 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:09,320 You don't need fire. I don't got to scare you with 490 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:13,320 fire. What about just being separated 491 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,280 from God forever? What about being in the earth 492 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,160 where there's nobody to pray for you? 493 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,720 Because God has prayed for decades and centuries. 494 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:28,560 He's cried out for his children. He's giving people a chance. 495 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:32,600 Nobody needs to scare you. I don't want to put fear in your 496 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,240 heart because there's No Fear in love. 497 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:39,680 But there's a cost of following. Jesus. 498 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:49,200 The solid food is for full grown men and women, for those whose 499 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:53,120 senses and mental faculties are trained by practice and 500 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:57,200 discriminate and distinguish between what is morally good and 501 00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,560 noble and what is evil and contrary either to divine or 502 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:05,520 human law. Therefore, next verse, watch 503 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:09,040 what he calls elementary. Let us go on. 504 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:13,320 Somebody shout out, let's go on. Here's what I do know. 505 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:18,320 God has sent people here that are ready to eat meat, but we 506 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,440 got to drag on because there's people who've been here for a 507 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,440 while that you still got to kind of deal with the basics and you 508 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:27,160 got a tiptoe and you got to make sure you don't have any. 509 00:36:27,240 --> 00:36:30,280 But, but God said, Terrence, after a while it's going to be 510 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,160 your fault and you're not leading my people the way I 511 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,760 called you to leave. There are people here who I have 512 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:38,120 prepared and equipped to eat meat and you're you're steadily 513 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:43,520 dragging your feet 'cause you, Terrence pastorally, are afraid 514 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:51,040 to leave anybody behind. I'm in this tug of war and I 515 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:56,680 can't be pastoral in that way to where there's people sitting 516 00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:03,240 here like, hold me account, let's go, equip me, let's go. 517 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:11,760 Somebody brought this to my attention. 518 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:14,600 A day I never find Jesus apologizing for nothing. 519 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:21,680 He did nothing, he said. I never see him looking back 520 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,120 like, oh, did I? Did I offend the woman that I 521 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:29,960 ignored? Did I offend by martyr mayors? 522 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:36,440 When I like I, I oh that. Was unfair of me to tell the man 523 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:38,320 he can't go to his father's funeral. 524 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:43,960 Right. Are we reading Jesus? 525 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:50,240 Or have we just kind of made this Bible into this like all 526 00:37:50,240 --> 00:37:56,160 about him loving us? No, But before we needed to, 527 00:37:56,360 --> 00:38:00,960 before we needed grace, what was we given? 528 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:04,400 We was given a. Work. 529 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:11,440 We need grace because we fail. Grace is to restore us back to 530 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:15,000 something. It's not for us to park at 531 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,760 Grace, right? What's the song? 532 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:19,200 What's the song?

It don't matter what you did on 550 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:35,200 the way to church. There's nothing you can do that 551 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:41,880 will change His love. This is the year that everything 552 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:45,560 will be restored. He loves you, He loves you. 553 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:46,560 He loves you. He loves you. 554 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:47,520 He loves you. He loves you. 555 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,280 He loves you, He loves you. We need that. 556 00:39:56,910 --> 00:40:02,470 But then you do a song like I will run and. 557 00:40:08,110 --> 00:40:16,200 Folks is like right? There, there's this no, now 558 00:40:16,240 --> 00:40:18,800 sometime we're doing that. We're we're hyped because it's 559 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:23,560 just it's just fire. It's like I did when Jesus asked 560 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:31,040 you to run you like no right holds on I. 561 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:32,840 Will run.

Is it money? 565 00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:58,440 Is it money? Is it money? 566 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,160 Will you keep me? Will you keep me? 567 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:03,880 Will you keep me? Will you keep me? 568 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:06,440 I don't know. I don't know. 569 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:09,160 I don't know. I don't know. 570 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:11,840 I need to pray. I need to pray. 571 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:16,840 I need to pray. I need to pray. 40 days, 40 572 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,000 nights, 40. Stop, stop. 573 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,720 Hey, son. Sometimes, sometimes, JT we 574 00:41:23,720 --> 00:41:25,800 don't need to fast. We just need to walk. 575 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,080 We need to go. It's time to go. 576 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:41,200 He said it's time to go on and get past the elementary stage in 577 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:43,320 the teachings and doctrine of Christ. 578 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:46,280 It that sounds so offensive, let's get past the teachings of 579 00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:50,080 Christ. Can we get past the teachings of 580 00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:52,880 Christ? No, he didn't say get past the 581 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:54,960 teachings of Christ. He said get past the elementary. 582 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:58,200 Teachings of Christ. He loves. 583 00:42:04,720 --> 00:42:06,480 Like we can, we can do that all day. 584 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:09,560 We can make you cry. But but but sometime when you 585 00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:13,080 see a warrior crying as they're spear in the head, right? 586 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:20,600 Like cry, be be mad at the devil, but don't blame the 587 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:28,010 devil. He says the elementary stage is 588 00:42:28,210 --> 00:42:30,250 advancing. Somebody say advancing, 589 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:35,480 advancing steadily toward the completeness and perfection or 590 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:40,000 maturing that belong to spiritual maturity. 591 00:42:40,240 --> 00:42:45,360 Let us get past right, kids. But when kids see you eating 592 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:48,320 like steak and stuff, no, ain't this gross? 593 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:51,280 Like my kids probably had never let me chew chew down a steak. 594 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:56,040 And then and then feed it to every Ain't this nasty? 595 00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:59,480 Everybody in here has eaten some chewed up food from their 596 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:04,000 parents. What? 597 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:07,840 But why did they chew it up? So they can? 598 00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:10,760 Huh. So they could digest? 599 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:12,960 They could not. It's not merely about their 600 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:16,440 ability to chew, but why they need to chew is so they can 601 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:21,160 digest it. So he's saying, how long do we 602 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:23,160 got to keep chewing the food for you? 603 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,600 How long do we got to worry about breaking it down and it go 604 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:31,520 over your head or, oh, that was the this version of the Bible. 605 00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:35,280 Or like the stuff we're arguing over and the stuff, when are we 606 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:39,200 going to get past having to cater to you? 607 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:48,960 The thing, the thing about an Apostolic grace is that he 608 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:58,160 raises up men and women. That he breaks from the fear of 609 00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:02,680 man. It's why a lot of times you 610 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:08,160 can't hire them, because what God needs to do in the earth, 611 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,680 sometimes he needs. To do it faster than a board can 612 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:17,680 decide, that's touchy territory right there. 613 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:26,640 That's touchy. Let me, let me, let me. 614 00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:28,560 I told Laura last week. I said if you need me to bring 615 00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:29,680 it up, I'll bring it up. Can you put it up? 616 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:30,600 Second Kings. What is it? 617 00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:32,360 No. Second Kings, 22 what? 618 00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:36,400 22, Four. Start there. 619 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:38,800 Can I show you something? Can I can I can I interrupt 620 00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:40,720 something real quick? I just want to help some minds 621 00:44:40,720 --> 00:44:41,200 out. Right. 622 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:46,200 This is the day we're in. Go up to Hilkiah the high priest 623 00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:49,000 that he may count the money. Say count the money. 624 00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:51,160 Somebody say count them up. Count them up. 625 00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:54,400 Count them up. Count the money brought into the 626 00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:57,600 House of The Who Lord? Is this the House of the Lord? 627 00:44:57,680 --> 00:44:58,640 Amen. Yes, it is. 628 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:05,840 Which the keepers of the door have gathered from the OR in 629 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:09,480 other words, paint a picture with Deacon Rona has gathered or 630 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:13,400 Pastor Danielle or Elder Roseanne has gathered from the 631 00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:18,800 people and let them deliver it into the hands of the workmen 632 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:22,480 who have oversight of the Lord's house. 633 00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:27,000 That may be the the pastors that can be the elders, whoever it 634 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:31,400 may be, let them bring it to them to give to the laborers 635 00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:34,840 engaged in the repairings of God's house. 636 00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:40,480 That's the contractors. Watch it, that is, to 637 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:47,920 carpenters, builders and Masons, and to buy timber and hewn stone 638 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,000 to repair the house. To do what? 639 00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:54,680 Watch this, Watch this. However, there was no accounting 640 00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:58,960 required of them for the money delivered into their hands, 641 00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:06,040 because they dealt faithfully. I had somebody watch this. 642 00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:09,080 I had somebody read the scripture to me as they came to 643 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:12,840 repent because they were procrastinating and sowing this 644 00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:15,760 humongous seed because they were going through. 645 00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:19,600 Questions where the money going? Like some people right, where 646 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:22,200 the money going. But let let me help you. 647 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:24,160 We have accountability, we have accounting. 648 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:28,040 Right, and and and and. That would be pretty silly. 649 00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:30,440 Something goes down. Guess what? 650 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:33,840 I not only the, the church not only get hurt, but I got to go 651 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:40,600 home and this is home there, there's people at the door, 652 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:43,520 there's elders, there's people that count there, there there's 653 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:46,360 waste and, and that is only going to increase in the 654 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:48,040 excellence and things of that nature. 655 00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,520 We're getting a lot. But as far as the accountability 656 00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:52,760 goes, but, but, but this is my point. 657 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:59,440 We have gotten so worried about, well I'm not going to build 658 00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:03,320 God's house because I need to know the information so I can 659 00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:06,640 trust the information I got right. 660 00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:08,920 You see, you see the tension in here right now because we don't 661 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:11,400 want to take a responsibility for the lack of our trust. 662 00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:16,400 We want to say no, you should do this like this, like this, like 663 00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:17,720 that, like this, like this, like that. 664 00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:21,720 OK, that's Old Testament. OK, well what did the Bible say 665 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:25,360 in the New Testament? That the people gathered and 666 00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:29,320 they laid their finances and all that they sold at the apostles 667 00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:30,080 feet. Talk to me. 668 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:36,520 That's Bible. So Needless to say, there is 669 00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:39,320 systems and accountability and all those things, but at the 670 00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:44,360 same time, when God is redoing something and restoring 671 00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:49,160 something, his Apostolic ways is going to disrupt the norm. 672 00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:55,720 It's a time where we get it with his program, not build around 673 00:47:55,720 --> 00:47:59,880 for our program. All right, let's get back. 674 00:47:59,920 --> 00:48:02,120 Let's get back. Let's get, did somebody say me 675 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,240 that was meat right there, OK, right. 676 00:48:05,240 --> 00:48:09,160 But he was saying something like that that's too strong to talk 677 00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:13,280 to you five years ago about. You don't have a digestive 678 00:48:13,280 --> 00:48:21,640 system to deal with that kind of truth, right? 679 00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:23,080 They're like kids need play pens. 680 00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:24,880 They need safety. Structures. 681 00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:31,320 They need barriers, they need things around them that secure 682 00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,800 them because they don't even trust like, like there's, 683 00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:37,680 there's, there's health, there's all these things that and I feel 684 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:41,520 like the church has done a good job where we need these systems, 685 00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:44,160 we need these things. Hear me, man, I really hope you 686 00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:47,400 are mature enough to do the work in your own head right now. 687 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:58,640 All the things that we have built are not bad things, but 688 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:05,160 when they have become the thing that leads us and drives us in 689 00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:09,560 how we experience the move of God, there's going to come a 690 00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:12,920 time where God tears it down. And He's so generous. 691 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,560 He's not going to tear that church down or tear that. 692 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:18,560 He's not doing away with things, but He will start something. 693 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:33,880 Listen, in the first service, the first experience, we read 694 00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:38,160 and go through this and he says that these elementary things are 695 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:41,960 like the purifying, the laying on the hands, the resurrection 696 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:45,040 from the dead. Oh, the resurrection is like 697 00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:47,480 milk. Like that's basic. 698 00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:51,040 Eternal. Judgement and punishment, these 699 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:54,360 are all matters of which you should have been fully aware of 700 00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:58,240 long time ago. If indeed God permits, we will 701 00:49:58,240 --> 00:50:04,840 now proceed to advance in this season to advance teaching. 702 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:11,720 We're going higher, we're going deeper, Philippians says. 703 00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:15,360 I forgot all about the past and I fastened my heart to the 704 00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:18,520 future instead. Watch this. 705 00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:23,320 I run straight, not wiggly not oh, it's popping over here. 706 00:50:23,720 --> 00:50:25,480 It's dead over there now popping over here. 707 00:50:25,720 --> 00:50:27,600 Nah, it's dead now popping over here. 708 00:50:27,720 --> 00:50:29,760 Nah, it's oh, this failed. I'm going to go change this. 709 00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:34,960 No, I'm going to run straight. Reaching into the high calling, 710 00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:37,640 watch this and gaining the victory prize through the 711 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:39,720 anointing of Jesus, the anointing of Jesus, the 712 00:50:39,720 --> 00:50:43,320 anointing of Jesus. I want to be where the anointing 713 00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:47,480 is for my life, and I realize that I'm not anointed to do 714 00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:51,960 everything. So let's keep focused on that 715 00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:53,800 goal. Watch this, watch this. 716 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:56,760 Those of us who want everything God do. 717 00:50:56,760 --> 00:51:00,280 I have a few people in here who want everything God has for us. 718 00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:06,040 I know I do everything, not some stuff, everything God has for 719 00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:08,800 us. If any of you have something 720 00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:11,240 else in mind, something less than total commitment. 721 00:51:11,240 --> 00:51:15,480 Total commitment, here it is. I want everything God has for 722 00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:17,240 me. But God says if you have 723 00:51:17,240 --> 00:51:19,000 anything less than total commitment. 724 00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:23,920 Your part got to clear your blurred vision. 725 00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:27,480 You'll see it yet. Now that we're on the right 726 00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:30,880 track, let's stay on it. Watch this. 727 00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:35,080 Stick with me, friends. This is very important for 100% 728 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,600 of you in here. Keep track. 729 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:45,360 What does keep track mean? Talk to pay attention. 730 00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:50,800 Keep a count. Watch this. 731 00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:54,920 Keep track of those you see running the same race you're 732 00:51:54,920 --> 00:52:00,560 called to. Watch this very carefully headed 733 00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:04,920 for this same goal. So I need to know what I'm 734 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:10,240 called to because that impacts who I choose to run with. 735 00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:14,040 That's why it's very dangerous to start running with folks and 736 00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:15,280 you don't even know where you're running. 737 00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:27,600 Watch this. There are many, many out there 738 00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:34,560 taking other paths, choosing other goals and trying to get 739 00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:42,480 you to go along with them. Is that what he say in our minds 740 00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:43,680 right now? We probably like that's, that's 741 00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:45,360 the world. He no, no, no, no, no, no, no, 742 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:50,080 no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, He's talking to us right 743 00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:53,080 here in this house. There's different paths. 744 00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:56,880 Not everybody is after the fullness of God in this room 745 00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:59,440 right now. Not everybody want God's best. 746 00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:03,840 Not everybody in. Here is going to make up their 747 00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:10,640 mind today that I will follow Jesus this day forward and 748 00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:12,480 anything that's in the way of that. 749 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:17,080 I have to let him purge sobering truth. 750 00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:22,680 Not everybody in here is willing to make that kind of dedication 751 00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:29,520 to Jesus today, but everybody in here wants Jesus to show up for 752 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:40,320 them tomorrow. Not everybody is willing to take 753 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:43,840 inventory and observe things around their lives and let the 754 00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:45,600 Holy Ghost say, Yep, I want that. 755 00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:48,960 Yep, I want that. Yep, lay that down. 756 00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:52,200 Yep, you shouldn't be in that. That's a good thing for them, 757 00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:55,520 but not for you. That's not the same course that 758 00:53:55,520 --> 00:53:57,760 I called you to take. It's not the same. 759 00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:03,280 And I'm sorry you didn't discover your course before you 760 00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:08,720 enter the covenant. So now I got a hurt feelings 761 00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:14,720 because I right is is when is when you tell your kids to clean 762 00:54:14,720 --> 00:54:18,680 up or can't none of their friends come over and then they 763 00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:21,040 call your friends and say hey come through. 764 00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:27,440 They show up and you got a Mama like mines that say I don't care 765 00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:31,680 who at the door because you thought if my friend showed up 766 00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:36,360 my mom would be nice enough to let them in anyway. 767 00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:40,560 But when you got that Mama that's trying to raise you up in 768 00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:43,760 the way you should go. She going to let your friend 769 00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:47,920 catch the bus back home until you clean up and do what she 770 00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:52,200 say. She is a Mama that can't lie. 771 00:54:59,710 --> 00:55:02,710 Headed for the same goal. There are many out there taking 772 00:55:02,710 --> 00:55:04,910 other paths, choosing other goals. 773 00:55:05,190 --> 00:55:12,680 Not everyone in this room has the same goal of reaching for 774 00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:16,000 the high calling. There's people in here want to 775 00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:20,240 do what they desire and sprinkle high calling in it. 776 00:55:20,240 --> 00:55:22,640 You want God to use what you. Chose. 777 00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:24,320 You don't want to choose what he. 778 00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:27,000 Chose. He. 779 00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:37,280 Said I've warned you of them many times. 780 00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:43,520 Sadly I'm having to do it again. All they want is easy Street. 781 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:47,280 They hate crisis cross. Crisis cross is something we 782 00:55:47,280 --> 00:55:52,720 call to carry to carry daily. So as a follower of Jesus, there 783 00:55:52,720 --> 00:55:58,600 are things that God is going to allow you to obtain and then 784 00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:07,800 request you to lay them down. Start looking at the blessings 785 00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:14,440 as offering so when you get it, you don't marry it and idolize 786 00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:22,480 it. So God is saying there are 787 00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:27,560 people in their lives that work hard, that have amazing goals, 788 00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:34,600 but they're amazing goals isn't necessarily your call and your 789 00:56:34,600 --> 00:56:40,000 lane to get in to run with them before you get in the car, you 790 00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:45,240 need to know where it's heading. Uber has accountability. 791 00:56:48,640 --> 00:56:54,320 You can't just hop in a potato sack and get ready to play in a 792 00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:59,360 game with somebody just to discover they only got 6 toes 793 00:57:01,560 --> 00:57:05,760 just to discover their balance is terrible and now you in shape 794 00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:08,560 trying to get to the end and they lean in. 795 00:57:10,200 --> 00:57:14,040 And now you spending the next five years trying to create 796 00:57:14,040 --> 00:57:17,760 balance in your life from an imbalance someone else brought 797 00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:23,200 to your life. Sometimes the bad that happens 798 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:25,600 in your life is not because you're doing something wrong, 799 00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:30,400 it's who you're adjacent to because we're going two 800 00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:39,360 different ways. They hate Crisis cross, but Easy 801 00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:42,640 Street is a dead end St. Those who live there make their 802 00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:46,000 bellies their gods. Belches are their praise, and 803 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:49,120 all they can think of is their own appetite. 804 00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:52,160 But we're citizens of the Kingdom. 805 00:57:53,400 --> 00:58:00,320 You can hear that in the next maybe John 15. 806 00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:08,000 And I'm probably going to go a little further because I've been 807 00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:10,360 teaching on this for the last Sunday and Wednesday. 808 00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:13,600 So he talks about he's the true Vine. 809 00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:18,400 We're the branches. And he says any fruit in him 810 00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:21,680 that does not bear fruit, any fruit in him, he's talking to 811 00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:25,480 the church, any fruit in him, any branch in him, sorry, any 812 00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:27,960 branch in him that does not bear fruit, he cuts away. 813 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:32,040 Any branch in him, but any branch in him that bears fruit, 814 00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:36,240 he purges. So both people get purged, but 815 00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:41,600 one gets cuts away. One stays connected but still 816 00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:49,640 get cut so that you can produce more lavish fruit, lush fruit. 817 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:55,360 The fruit gets richer. OK. 818 00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:59,040 You're cleansed, he says in verse 3. 819 00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:01,920 Then in John 15, four he says dwell in me. 820 00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:07,640 He says without abiding in him, you can't bear no. 821 00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:10,840 Fruit. Without abiding in Him, you 822 00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:13,880 can't bear any fruit. So let me ask you this, if you 823 00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:16,600 are not abiding in Him and you're still fruitful, then what 824 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:23,960 kind of fruit are you bearing? See, definitions matter because 825 00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:26,280 the fruit you talking about and the fruit he talking about is 826 00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:31,280 two different things. He says I'm the vine, you are 827 00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:33,800 the branches. Whoever lives in me and I in him 828 00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:35,520 bears much fruit, abundant fruit. 829 00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:39,840 However, apart from me cut off from vital union with me, you 830 00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:43,520 can do nothing. He's saying you accomplished it 831 00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:48,040 a lot, but to him it's nothing. When is what he? 832 00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:50,520 Cares about going to matter to you. 833 00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:58,600 If a person does not dwell in me, he is thrown out like a 834 00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:01,800 broken off branch and Withers. The thing about withering I've 835 01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:03,680 dealt with this Wednesday is it slow? 836 01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:06,600 You don't even notice it until it's too late. 837 01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:11,920 My words remain in you and you continue, and they continue to 838 01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:16,440 live in your heart. My words remain in you and live 839 01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:19,720 in your heart. When you bear much fruit, watch 840 01:00:19,720 --> 01:00:22,880 it. When you bear much fruit, my 841 01:00:22,880 --> 01:00:30,760 father is honored. Now, when you accumulate a bunch 842 01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:36,280 of things, when you bear the fruit He's talking about, the 843 01:00:36,280 --> 01:00:37,960 Father is not. So then the question is, do you 844 01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:41,960 want to honor the Lord? Well, you got to bear much 845 01:00:41,960 --> 01:00:44,120 fruit, and in order to bear the kind of fruit he's talking 846 01:00:44,120 --> 01:00:47,920 about, you got to remain. Watch this. 847 01:00:48,640 --> 01:00:53,280 And you show, and you prove yourselves to be true. 848 01:00:53,920 --> 01:01:02,440 Followers, if you keep my. Commandments if you continue to 849 01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:05,560 obey my. Instructions you will abide in 850 01:01:05,560 --> 01:01:10,920 my love and live on in it. I've told you these things, that 851 01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:13,760 my joy and delight may be in you. 852 01:01:15,480 --> 01:01:19,520 Oh, so he just gave us the key to having joy and delight in US. 853 01:01:24,080 --> 01:01:30,080 We all need to hear this. You have not chosen me, I chose 854 01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:40,560 you and I've appointed you. I've planted you that you might 855 01:01:40,560 --> 01:01:45,160 go and bear fruit. Here's the key and keep on 856 01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:55,480 bearing lasting fruit. Fruit that remains, Jesus told 857 01:01:55,480 --> 01:02:02,120 his Father in his last day. The ones you gave me, I kept. 858 01:02:09,580 --> 01:02:14,500 Fruit that remains is the manifestation and expression of 859 01:02:14,500 --> 01:02:18,700 a transformed life that results from abiding, resting, 860 01:02:18,700 --> 01:02:20,500 communing, and surrendering in Christ. 861 01:02:21,320 --> 01:02:25,200 It encompasses a range of positive characteristics and 862 01:02:25,200 --> 01:02:29,360 actions including Lovejoy, peace, and abundant obedience, 863 01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:33,760 all flowing from a deep connection with Jesus. 864 01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:37,120 Watch this. Obedience is a fruit. 865 01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:44,520 The fact that you struggle with obeying. 866 01:02:44,520 --> 01:02:51,440 God speaks to your disconnection to the vine, but I love Jesus. 867 01:02:52,120 --> 01:03:10,610 But what does your fruit show? This fruit that he's calling us 868 01:03:10,610 --> 01:03:13,690 to is produced by #1 Write it down. 869 01:03:14,050 --> 01:03:25,170 Abiding in Jesus, you desire to have all that God has for you #1 870 01:03:25,170 --> 01:03:27,010 This fruit is produced by abiding. 871 01:03:27,210 --> 01:03:31,400 I shall not be moved #2 Write it down. 872 01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:35,680 Take a picture. This fruit is produced by the 873 01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:38,280 power of the Holy Spirit at work in your life. 874 01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:40,960 Look at what Galatians says. The fruit of the Holy Spirit, 875 01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:45,920 the work which his. Presence within accomplishes 876 01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:52,360 John 738 the fruit acts 18 the. Fruit. 877 01:03:53,040 --> 01:03:56,800 Power, the fruit. I want you to see this the power 878 01:03:56,800 --> 01:04:00,040 of God. It is not merely power to hang 879 01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:05,640 on you. Either hang on her or overcomer. 880 01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:12,200 The power of God is to overcome and to be more than a conqueror. 881 01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:16,760 It is not to just hang in there. The power of God is, is not. 882 01:04:16,760 --> 01:04:33,840 So you can be a super tolerator #3 #3 the fruit that he is 883 01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:37,760 talking about is produced by the work of the Spirit through the 884 01:04:37,760 --> 01:04:42,080 church, through the body of Christ. 885 01:04:46,920 --> 01:04:53,880 You cannot walk into full maturity abandoning the body and 886 01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:58,480 the work he's doing in the body. This is why we need expressions 887 01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:02,480 of him throughout the city, because he has something. 888 01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:04,600 He has a church specific for you. 889 01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:09,160 And that church should dig. That church should get on your 890 01:05:09,160 --> 01:05:14,600 nerves. But then you before you go, you 891 01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:18,760 got to look at the fruit is equipping, is the word 892 01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:21,800 happening? See, a lot of time we we look at 893 01:05:21,800 --> 01:05:28,240 fruit at the elementary level. Are we making disciples? 894 01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:32,560 Is there, is there Saints maturing? 895 01:05:38,660 --> 01:05:41,740 Somebody say the body of Christ one more time. 896 01:05:41,740 --> 01:05:46,140 Say the body of Christ. What I'm going to show you is 897 01:05:46,140 --> 01:05:48,540 going to be a lot. It was a lot for me this 898 01:05:48,540 --> 01:05:52,560 morning. He has put all things. 899 01:05:52,560 --> 01:05:58,520 I want you to see who Jesus says the body of Christ is. 900 01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:03,760 Everyone would say that's us. I want you to see who us is and 901 01:06:03,760 --> 01:06:07,960 why it's growing up time. Watch this very carefully. 902 01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:10,920 He has put all things under his feet. 903 01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:15,560 And he has appointed God has appointed him the universe 904 01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:21,240 Jesus, the universal and supreme head of the shouted out, no 905 01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:23,200 shout out head of the what church? 906 01:06:23,560 --> 01:06:31,360 He is head over a thing. He is the king of a Kingdom. 907 01:06:32,920 --> 01:06:36,960 The Father has appointed Jesus as King. 908 01:06:39,880 --> 01:06:47,120 He's not just a high priest, or he wouldn't be after the pattern 909 01:06:47,120 --> 01:06:55,280 of Melchizedek, a king. He is king over a Kingdom, and 910 01:06:55,280 --> 01:06:59,320 it's a Kingdom with citizens. Who are the citizens? 911 01:06:59,520 --> 01:07:08,360 The Church. Watch it a headship exercise 912 01:07:08,720 --> 01:07:14,240 throughout the church and authority exercise throughout 913 01:07:14,240 --> 01:07:19,480 the body, not throughout pastors and elders, throughout the body, 914 01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:25,760 which is his body. Watch it, watch it, watch it, 915 01:07:25,760 --> 01:07:29,960 watch it throughout the church, which is his boom. 916 01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:40,600 Black Body watch this. You and I and the universal 917 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:49,000 Church is the fullness of him who feels All in all. 918 01:07:49,000 --> 01:07:58,120 For in that body, not in that head, in that body lives the 919 01:07:58,120 --> 01:08:08,280 full measure of If the world's going to experience Jesus, there 920 01:08:08,280 --> 01:08:14,560 needs to be a healthy body. That means every one of us have 921 01:08:14,560 --> 01:08:18,880 to grow up and be a follower of Jesus. 922 01:08:20,600 --> 01:08:24,439 The reason the church is being mocked right now is not Jesus 923 01:08:24,439 --> 01:08:28,720 fault, it's ours. We are lukewarm, we are two 924 01:08:28,720 --> 01:08:31,240 faced it. We are double minded. 925 01:08:31,359 --> 01:08:35,000 We gossip, we talk about each other, we give the world 926 01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:38,960 permission to mock us. We talk about each other, we 927 01:08:38,960 --> 01:08:41,760 expose each other. When the Bible says cover each 928 01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:47,000 other and some of us will share and expose. 929 01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:54,080 Yes, there's healthy expressions of the church, but the Bible 930 01:08:54,080 --> 01:08:56,160 says when one is down, all is down. 931 01:08:56,720 --> 01:09:00,479 When 1 is up, we all celebrate. When one win, we all win. 932 01:09:00,479 --> 01:09:06,920 When one lose, we all lose. If a nail goes through my foot, 933 01:09:06,920 --> 01:09:08,880 my entire body is going to respond. 934 01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:11,720 And that's the problem. We have got independent 935 01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:17,560 missions, Paul burden, an Apostolic burden. 936 01:09:18,160 --> 01:09:24,399 Is a church burden, not a local church burden, Not a my church. 937 01:09:24,439 --> 01:09:26,399 I'm pastor. I'm gonna do my service. 938 01:09:26,399 --> 01:09:32,319 I'm gonna go home. It is a burden for the the the 939 01:09:32,399 --> 01:09:41,000 the church, the global church. So we are a church with a 940 01:09:41,560 --> 01:09:47,319 territorial anointing. The worship is beyond pleasing 941 01:09:47,319 --> 01:09:51,560 the Sunday audience. The worship is to tear walls 942 01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:56,000 down so we can go in and restore all that has been stolen and 943 01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:58,200 broken. The worship is to go out. 944 01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:02,800 We go to gyms and we go to do concerts and we're moving 945 01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:08,200 because wherever the double river goes, there shall be life. 946 01:10:08,400 --> 01:10:12,680 So we will we will break out the norm and we will inconvenience 947 01:10:12,840 --> 01:10:17,760 because God is saying take my ark and move it across the city 948 01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:21,680 because there's something on this house to breakthrough 949 01:10:21,840 --> 01:10:26,080 principalities and rulers. So now all of a sudden we're 950 01:10:26,080 --> 01:10:30,600 going to see an influx of church planters because they got their 951 01:10:30,600 --> 01:10:32,880 groove back. They got vision back. 952 01:10:33,040 --> 01:10:37,120 We're going to see a flux of pastors being restored who are 953 01:10:37,120 --> 01:10:40,320 weary and tired. We're going to see an activation 954 01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:45,320 of evangelist because God is raising up an Apostolic people 955 01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:54,160 that are territorial. It's a movement. 956 01:10:56,160 --> 01:10:58,360 Where do you think pop up shops came from? 957 01:10:59,960 --> 01:11:02,640 Jesus pop up, Holy Ghost like the wind. 958 01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:03,720 Just pop. Up. 959 01:11:05,320 --> 01:11:06,520 But we like, no, you can't pop up. 960 01:11:06,520 --> 01:11:10,360 You going to pop up, pop in between 10:00 and 11:30. 961 01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:14,360 If you if you don't move by 11:30, I'm disinterested. 962 01:11:17,040 --> 01:11:20,280 And then that's when you find when he do pop up, that's my 963 01:11:20,280 --> 01:11:23,120 time to go because they're distracted by him. 964 01:11:27,160 --> 01:11:29,920 There's no revival without endurance. 965 01:11:40,740 --> 01:11:44,340 Here's the church, he says, he says who makes everything 966 01:11:44,340 --> 01:11:46,500 complete and who fills Everything Everywhere with 967 01:11:46,500 --> 01:11:48,460 himself. Here's the church. 968 01:11:49,020 --> 01:11:51,620 The church is the complete expression of Christ. 969 01:11:54,180 --> 01:11:57,680 Y'all the pastor ain't the complete expression. 970 01:11:57,680 --> 01:11:59,520 The elders ain't the complete expression. 971 01:12:03,440 --> 01:12:07,760 And through the through the church, Christ's present and 972 01:12:07,760 --> 01:12:10,680 power are manifested throughout creation. 973 01:12:11,400 --> 01:12:17,640 Oh, all of creation is waiting. Did he say all of creation was 974 01:12:17,640 --> 01:12:22,840 waiting on Jesus? They've seen him pop up. 975 01:12:25,480 --> 01:12:29,640 They knew who he was. Question today, where you at? 976 01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:39,720 Essentially, the Church as Christ's body is the means 977 01:12:39,720 --> 01:12:45,920 through which crisis fullness is mained on and experienced by the 978 01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:48,760 world. It is through the Church that 979 01:12:48,760 --> 01:12:53,400 Christ is redemptive work. And divine attributes are made 980 01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:58,280 visible. The perfecting work of the 981 01:12:58,280 --> 01:13:01,120 Trinity through the body is a divine strategy. 982 01:13:01,400 --> 01:13:05,840 To restore the full and complete inheritance of the name, image, 983 01:13:05,960 --> 01:13:12,200 and likeness of Christ in and upon all sons and daughters of 984 01:13:12,200 --> 01:13:18,080 the Kingdom of God. Hence to do this, he gave his 985 01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:24,120 bride apostles. Prophets, evangelists, pastors 986 01:13:24,640 --> 01:13:30,840 and teachers to do what? Equip the Saints for what? 987 01:13:31,800 --> 01:13:35,840 The work of the ministry. For what? 988 01:13:36,680 --> 01:13:42,200 So we can grow up. And my prayer today. 989 01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:54,760 My prayer today is that every apostle, every prophet, every 990 01:13:54,760 --> 01:14:01,240 evangelist, every pastor and every teacher has a last day 991 01:14:01,240 --> 01:14:08,720 backbone to deal with the people, to deal with the falling 992 01:14:08,720 --> 01:14:13,240 away, to deal with the offended, to deal. 993 01:14:13,240 --> 01:14:16,880 With being misunderstood because there's people in here who God 994 01:14:16,880 --> 01:14:22,840 is calling you. He's pulling you away and for 995 01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:26,680 some of you, you're trying to fight tooth and nail, to hold on 996 01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:30,560 to familiarity. And there's few of you in here 997 01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:33,200 that will say Lord. For real Doll. 998 01:14:33,800 --> 01:14:41,800 Here I am, I will tell you from experience when you truly, 999 01:14:43,080 --> 01:14:47,040 truly. Simplify your life and make your 1000 01:14:47,040 --> 01:14:54,080 life all about Jesus. It feels lonely, but feeling 1001 01:14:54,080 --> 01:14:56,720 lonely and being by yourself is two different things. 1002 01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:02,040 I promise you. There's a school of prophets 1003 01:15:02,040 --> 01:15:04,920 somewhere, there's there's a school of evangelist there's 1004 01:15:04,960 --> 01:15:07,840 there's some folks to walk this out with you. 1005 01:15:07,840 --> 01:15:21,520 And in this season, it's simple. He's calling you higher, and the 1006 01:15:21,520 --> 01:15:23,920 Holy Spirit has been given to us to take us deeper. 1007 01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:31,640 In one hand, it's simple. For some of us, it's very hard 1008 01:15:32,240 --> 01:15:37,840 because we're looking at things and like, Dang, in order to do 1009 01:15:37,840 --> 01:15:39,680 this and be this, I got to lay this down. 1010 01:15:45,160 --> 01:15:47,440 Anybody ever try to go buy a Lamborghini? 1011 01:15:48,120 --> 01:15:49,440 Right? Not many people in here, right? 1012 01:15:49,760 --> 01:15:55,240 Why it costs? They don't even they don't they 1013 01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:58,000 don't make as many Tesla Lamborghinis as they make 1014 01:15:58,000 --> 01:16:06,090 Teslas. I don't know about you, but the 1015 01:16:06,090 --> 01:16:08,850 savior of the world died for you. 1016 01:16:11,130 --> 01:16:13,530 I don't know about you but I that that make me feel real 1017 01:16:13,530 --> 01:16:25,000 expensive. So if you want to be a cheap 1018 01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:28,960 Christian, following Jesus ain't going to be something you like 1019 01:16:29,760 --> 01:16:31,680 because it's a high price. It's a cost. 1020 01:16:33,240 --> 01:16:35,280 But I promise you, Jesus is there to help you. 1021 01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:37,320 The anointing is there to empower you. 1022 01:16:39,920 --> 01:16:44,320 So I encourage those that are courageous enough today to write 1023 01:16:44,320 --> 01:16:49,880 where you are just I've been convicted preparing the message. 1024 01:16:52,040 --> 01:16:55,760 I can go deeper.

He's saying pick up. 1027 01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:18,400 So my prayer today is don't, don't delay. 1028 01:17:22,160 --> 01:17:25,080 You will never regret following Jesus. 1029 01:17:28,200 --> 01:17:37,440 Following Jesus.
