So I'm I keep closing this 32 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,240 because my header is up there and grace right there and I know 33 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,480 she's going to be looking at and he he'd be peekabooing too. 34 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,199 It's too small. You got glasses on though. 35 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:14,680 Hey man, Hallelujah, Hallelujah. All right, all right, so I need 36 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,840 y'all to bear with me because I mentioned I released something 37 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:25,800 last night that I'm going to bring I think makes some more 38 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:27,760 sense. But Love Quest is about to have 39 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,000 a little shift in it. Like real quick, real quick 40 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:35,920 shift because Love Quest, how can I say this? 41 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:43,760 The Bride is a movement in the earth and humans in North 42 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:48,280 America especially have made church an idol. 43 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:54,560 And we know. Church as Sunday and we know 44 00:02:54,560 --> 00:03:00,360 church where we can find community and we know church to 45 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:11,180 find clients that would see what you what you can't. 46 00:03:11,180 --> 00:03:15,260 Play with me about is I am not going to stay at the same level. 47 00:03:15,260 --> 00:03:17,500 So the longer you're around, you'll see evolution and you'll 48 00:03:17,500 --> 00:03:20,460 see, you'll see like I'm really pursuing God. 49 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,480 I really I don't know about you, but I actually one of my 50 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:30,840 greatest desires is to walk with God, not 90. 51 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,720 I would say about 70%. I'm just saying by by if you 52 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,760 just you was honest with yourself. 53 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:41,640 A lot of people don't want to walk with God. 54 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,680 What? Why was Enoch mentioned out of 55 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:50,040 when God's listing all these generations? 56 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:54,160 He paused and said Enoch, walk with God. 57 00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:00,360 I'm looking at you bold in your face and telling some of y'all 58 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,600 you don't want to walk with God as much as you want to be saved 59 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:11,360 by God. Because walking with God comes 60 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:15,640 with a greater price then being saved by God. 61 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:19,720 I'm preaching already. Jesus paid the price for you to 62 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:23,600 be saved. You got to pay the price to 63 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:29,960 walk. No, that comes with a price. 64 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,040 Because you can't walk with God and stay the same. 65 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:37,640 You can't walk with God with a bunch of baggage and you can't 66 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,440 walk with God and walk with the same people for the rest of your 67 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,680 life. You can't walk with God and 68 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:44,720 talk. Imagine. 69 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:46,560 Have you ever? This is why some of us don't 70 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,600 like hanging out with our parents, because there are 71 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,640 certain things we can get away with when we don't hang out with 72 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:54,760 mom and daddy. Those are you. 73 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,840 Some of you cuss, but not around. 74 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,520 See, walking with God will be this constant. 75 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:05,480 Like you really about to say that right now? 76 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,520 And if you really love God and have the spirit of the fear of 77 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,440 God, then guess what you're going to have to do? 78 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,000 Galatians 5 says you're going to have to be controlled by the 79 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,680 Holy Spirit and some of y'all got trust issues and control 80 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,920 issues and issues with authoritative, authoritative 81 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,560 figures and you have abandonment issues. 82 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:35,120 So not only do you not have a not not not only do you have 83 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,840 trouble walking with God, you got trouble walking with your 84 00:05:37,840 --> 00:05:42,440 leaders. And don't say you want to walk 85 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,240 with God, but you don't want to walk with the leaders he gave 86 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:50,880 you to connect you to him. Now Jesus connects. 87 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,080 You to him. But he gives you. 88 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,160 Pastors after not your own heart. 89 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:58,600 That's not what the. Scriptures say He gives you 90 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,120 pastors after his heart. Why? 91 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:01,440 Because he know you better than you. 92 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:02,920 You think you know what you need? 93 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,080 If you knew what you needed, you wouldn't be on your fifth time 94 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:11,760 trying to do what you think you need. 95 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,000 Hallelujah. Let me just go into my notes. 96 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:24,320 It's safe here. Oh I'm I'm going a EJ I'm 97 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,920 telling you and I told y'all last year guys I got to. 98 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:31,720 Sleep at night and that here's what I really want like I do not 99 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,360 want to be the one with the one talent and then be facing to the 100 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:42,800 master and he's like you just you just wasted all of that. 101 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,040 I really a lot of people say that well done, thy good and 102 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:48,560 faithful Sir. You think you want that? 103 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,080 You think you want double portion. 104 00:06:52,800 --> 00:07:00,040 It all sounds good, but who's going to pay the price to walk 105 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,920 with God? You know one thing I love about 106 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,600 about my son? It was a precious moment we had. 107 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,880 Yes, Lord, I won't share it with you, but I'll just tell you it 108 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:15,520 was one that we just had backstage is my son actually is 109 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:20,840 allowing him and his mom and I to actually lead him and there's 110 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,400 stuff that decisions in his life where we're sitting with coaches 111 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,080 and things and he's like, guys, you've been in this earth long 112 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:32,800 enough. You know me better than I know 113 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,760 me. I trust you. 114 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:43,000 What you think I should do you talking about walking with God. 115 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,080 Some kids don't know how to walk with their parents. 116 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,680 Do you know what it does to the? Father's heart. 117 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,680 When a child lays his life down and say lead me. 118 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:09,520 Tonight's topic is, is, is is turning point, turning point, 119 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:14,200 turning point, cultivating soil to handle the move of God. 120 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,160 Everybody want to move and wonder why he ain't moved. 121 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:28,920 He has moved. He don't stop moving. 122 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:34,960 God is a movement. We not moving 123 00:08:47,050 --> 00:08:51,650 turning point. And if I preach this to anybody, 124 00:08:51,650 --> 00:08:54,010 I won't preach it to myself. But I do know I got a few people 125 00:08:54,010 --> 00:09:01,280 in here that's tapped in cultivating soil to handle the 126 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,760 move of God. See, when you walk with God, 127 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:08,280 every sermon and every word He gives you, he graces you to 128 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:13,240 actually string them together. So you'll remember stuff like, 129 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,600 you know, the side effects of glory, right? 130 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,080 It's not just a nugget to post on social media. 131 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:22,320 These are things that He is actually speaking. 132 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,520 Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that 133 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,000 proceeds out his mouth. And sometimes you can't hear God 134 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,880 because you lost track of what he said. 135 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,520 I'm trying to help somebody right now. 136 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:40,680 You, you lost track of what he said and what he said today. 137 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:45,080 You can't cling it or click it to what he said, not knowing He 138 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:49,240 gave you a piece over here and then he gave you a piece the 139 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,560 next week and then he going to give you another piece in three 140 00:09:52,560 --> 00:09:55,520 months because he's not giving it all to you at once. 141 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,080 How are you stewarding the word from last year? 142 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:00,880 And hey, you ready if you didn't? 143 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,120 Steward the word from last year or even last week. 144 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,760 You are not posturing yourself to say God what you got for me 145 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:13,880 tonight. He just knows you are storing up 146 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:22,600 information and you don't value His word as heavenly bread here 147 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,520 and here and here. So you guys don't think PT just 148 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:34,200 talking the scripture says? The man that uses what I give 149 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:41,600 him, I will multiply it. The one who does not use what I 150 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:47,400 give them, I will take it away. Now you ready? 151 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,480 God doesn't take. How does God take? 152 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,120 He lets. The one that does take take. 153 00:10:55,000 --> 00:11:03,800 The enemy comes to take. So now you have sabotaged the 154 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:07,120 protection of the Word simply because you won't use the Word. 155 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,640 So God has no choice but to allow the word to be taken 156 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:17,920 because eventually enough words taken will lead to hunger 157 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,480 because you don't know how to stay hungry. 158 00:11:23,560 --> 00:11:26,880 When you keep getting fed, you're spoiled. 159 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:31,440 You're too blessed. So he's like, let these souls 160 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,840 starve, they'll be back. He's. 161 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:43,360 Such a God, he's so genius you will end up at his feet one day. 162 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:50,040 Which way will you go? Gurney car accident Trump. 163 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,240 Like which way you going to try to show up? 164 00:11:54,560 --> 00:11:58,920 And that's why that's why James says count it all joy when you 165 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,720 fall into that, what he's saying is all of us going to experience 166 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:08,000 some stuff, but when stuff shows up, that will determine how you 167 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,880 deal with that. Season but for those who always 168 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,280 are pursuing God, always eating that meal, always on the Kingdom 169 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,880 meal plan when stuff shows up you can do what count it all joy 170 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,280 the. Person who, who, who tragedy 171 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:28,560 interrupted your rebellion. You can't count it all joy. 172 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,160 You can't count it something you don't know. 173 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:41,200 So turning point. Turning point Somebody say this 174 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,880 is a turning point. Let's go. 175 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:51,440 Heart posture is vital for habitation and promise. 176 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:58,040 Heart posture is vital for habitation and promise. 177 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:04,040 Does the presence of God have anywhere to land in your life or 178 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:09,320 only in the form of stuff? I'm not talking to anybody, only 179 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:12,800 in the form of stuff. How does the condition of your 180 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:21,720 heart say, God, you can live here, you ready? 181 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,720 It is not. God's heart. 182 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:30,160 I mean, it is not God's job to till the soil of your heart. 183 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:36,560 That's your job. You're, you're creating capacity 184 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:41,680 to house glory to glory. God, God wants to take you from 185 00:13:41,680 --> 00:13:45,880 one level of glory to another and heap grace on top of grace. 186 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:49,960 But have you been faithful over that level of grace and glory? 187 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,480 So you can go to the he's not going to stack glory. 188 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,440 God don't stack glory. He evolves glory. 189 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:03,280 Hallelujah, Mark 4. Consider this. 190 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,360 Consider this. Say I'm considering Lord. 191 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:14,960 A sower went out to sow as as he sowed, some fell along the 192 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:19,720 beaten path, and soon the birds came and ate it. 193 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:28,160 Some fell onto gravel with no topsoil and quickly sprouted 194 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:33,640 since the soil had no depth. I'm going to say this one more 195 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,640 time. A sower went out to sow. 196 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,280 That's why you hear certain things like come on, declare 197 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,760 over yourself that I, I am good ground because why? 198 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:49,840 Because God through his farmer is sowing a word. 199 00:14:49,840 --> 00:15:00,880 Tonight God gave me seeds and and the word is falling on 200 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:06,600 different types of soil. Every every condition is not the 201 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,520 same in here. This is why some people in 202 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,240 church right now I'm preaching. It's been some real good stuff 203 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:18,200 and you've already forgotten because it fell on Stony ground. 204 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,560 It there's no room for the word to go. 205 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,400 So This is why we'll worship in between messages. 206 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,760 Why to let the word just kind of germinate a little, let it go 207 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,640 down. This is why we holler back 208 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,520 because it is my response to the word that I'm opening up my 209 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,960 heart. Write that valve. 210 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:39,240 I'm opening up the valve. So when the farmers sow, I'm 211 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:43,560 like, Hallelujah, when the farmers say say this, I'm not 212 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,920 sitting there all stubborn and prideful and not repeating what 213 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,000 he said because I don't feel like talking. 214 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:01,640 A sower went out to sow as he. Sold. 215 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:05,680 Some fell along the beaten path, and soon the birds came and ate 216 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,000 it. Soon the birds came and ate it 217 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:08,560 because it didn't have no depth in it. 218 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,440 Some fell on the gravel with no topsoil and quickly sprouted 219 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:18,000 since the soil had no depth but. But when the days grew hot, the 220 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,720 sprouts were scorched and withered because they had 221 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:29,320 insufficient roots. Some fell among thorns and the. 222 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:39,560 Thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no fruit, but 223 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:49,520 some fell onto good rich soil that kept producing, kept 224 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:55,560 producing, kept producing a good harvest. 225 00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:05,440 Some yielded 30 because 30 don't look at 30-60 hundred as 30 is 226 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:12,440 less or 30 is nothing. 30 is a part of the soil that kept 227 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:20,240 producing good harvest right? I guarantee you at one point 228 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:26,880 those who saw who produced 30 ended up producing 60, because 229 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:32,000 as you keep producing, you keep producing more because your soil 230 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:38,760 gets richer, he says. If you understand this, ha, if 231 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:45,720 you understand this, then then you you you need. 232 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:52,400 To respond, are you guys hot?

You got to spend time in the 302 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,160 inner courts to even have proper hearing. 303 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,480 The inner courts ain't just to talk to God, it's to learn how 304 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:46,000 to hear from God. God's Kingdom realm. 305 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,640 It says mysteries of God's Kingdom realm, like what's going 306 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,880 on? I I can't figure out what's 307 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,160 going on. I can't figure out why certain 308 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,840 people are still stuck. I can't figure out why there's 309 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:00,520 this confusion in our leadership. 310 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,920 I can't figure out how we can't be fishing consistent. 311 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,560 I can't figure out how stuff keeps getting dropped. 312 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,520 I can't. It's not practical. 313 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,640 There's good people that work hard. 314 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:16,480 God's not saying cut nobody. He did man, what's going on? 315 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:23,040 That kind of stuff when you walk with God. 316 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:27,920 He says this. The privilege of intimately 317 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:31,800 knowing the mystery of God's Kingdom realm, when God gives 318 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:40,080 you insight where man does not have sight, where God can trust 319 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:44,600 you with his burdens and you're not so immature and make his 320 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,240 burden an emotional thing about you. 321 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,920 It's actually he can. Actually when he says this is my 322 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:55,800 temple, Vanessa, he is saying your heart is my heart. 323 00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:01,320 So can I allow you to? Can I share my feelings with you 324 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:06,520 without you in your feelings? This is why he's often trying to 325 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:10,000 heal you from all this immature insecure, because he's trying to 326 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:14,760 house his presence in you. He wants to trust you with his 327 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,440 brokenness and you don't let it. He, he allows, he allows you to 328 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,160 feel his brokenness. Now you go for a month not 329 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:22,800 wondering why. Why am I depressed? 330 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:28,640 Some of the stuff that you've broken about is God's heart and 331 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:34,120 you've made it about you. Can God trust you with his 332 00:25:34,120 --> 00:25:40,920 heart? And it's when he could trust you 333 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:44,920 with his heart and you're not this, this emotional just up and 334 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:49,440 down and just all over the place that he comes And this is Bible. 335 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,680 He says I gave you pastors and, and, and teachers and 336 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:54,600 evangelists. And I'll give you these 5 337 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:56,520 minutes so you can stop. Wavering to and fro. 338 00:25:56,760 --> 00:26:01,600 He said so I can mature you. He said perfect, but that 339 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:05,640 perfect means mature you. So I put pastors in your life to 340 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,880 mature you, prophets in your life to mature you, apostles in 341 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:13,520 your life to mature you so you're not tossed to and fro. 342 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,320 There's so much more in you guys. 343 00:26:28,010 --> 00:26:29,970 Why did why did? Why did he call the disciples 344 00:26:29,970 --> 00:26:32,690 out on the sea when he knew it was going to be a storm to 345 00:26:32,690 --> 00:26:38,360 perfect them? You take all your storms in your 346 00:26:38,360 --> 00:26:45,920 valley times personal instead of knowing that God trusted you in 347 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,600 the storm, you didn't trust you or. 348 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:55,680 Him here. Here it is. 349 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,080 Jesus didn't make going to the cross personal. 350 00:27:01,120 --> 00:27:07,120 He knew it was about you. And now we swap places. 351 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:08,840 It's not about you, it's about him. 352 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,240 He made his life about you. You should make your life about 353 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:17,000 him. All right, all right, all right. 354 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,840 The the the privilege. Of entry I read that but not to 355 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:24,600 the others. He said y'all got this access 356 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:30,040 but others don't where everything is revealed in 357 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:33,640 parables. Y'all want God to be Lord? 358 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:35,160 Give me a sign. Nope. 359 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,240 We'll give you a parable. You're going to have eyes. 360 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,800 You got to have eyes to see what I'm saying in this season. 361 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:45,200 Why? Why is everything so difficult? 362 00:27:45,360 --> 00:27:48,680 Have you ever thought that God's allowing it to unravel because 363 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,160 there's your unraveled story is a parable. 364 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,880 And if you pause for a minute and ask the Holy Ghost to 365 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,480 interpret the the the mess you in, then you would get 366 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,840 revelation and not respond out of need. 367 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:12,200 You would respond out of purpose from revelation. 368 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:25,160 For, for even when they are or even when they see what I do, 369 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:31,200 they will not understand. They, they seen Troy, they see 370 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,640 how good God is. They woke him up last night. 371 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,600 Like he'll deliver folks, he'll free folks, he'll bless you. 372 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:40,080 He'll, he'll, he'll make amends with your enemies. 373 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,800 Even when they see it, they don't understand God saying some 374 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:48,200 of you, even if I came and gave you a sign, if I came, if I, if 375 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:52,520 I really manifested as an Angel with big old wings in your house 376 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,320 and I picked your car up and turned it around and talked to 377 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:59,720 you, you'll steal. You don't want a sign. 378 00:28:59,920 --> 00:29:04,600 You want convenience. You want him to alter your life 379 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:08,480 to where you can tolerate or you can be comfortable. 380 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:13,200 You don't want a sign. I'm here to tell you God is not 381 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:18,120 interested in making your life easy based on what easy is to 382 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:25,040 you. When we understand this, we pray 383 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:32,240 different, we wait different. And then and when they. 384 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,560 Hear what I say, when they even hear what I. 385 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,320 This is crazy, EJ. He allows you to hear him. 386 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:43,440 Why you saying you can't hear him is the issue. 387 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,000 He ain't talking and you didn't hear him. 388 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,560 You just don't know which voice is his. 389 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:55,760 When I when I when they hear what I say, they will learn 390 00:29:55,960 --> 00:30:05,880 nothing. Otherwise, see the object of 391 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:09,200 hearing his voice is not to just hear his voice. 392 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:14,440 It's to learn his voice. I got to talk to this side it 393 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,520 it's not about hearing. See some of y'all just like like 394 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:22,080 you like a baby when you you you say when then you say then you 395 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:28,880 hear the parents voice and you're like it's not some of us 396 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:34,840 in the street. You calmed down because you 397 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:38,240 heard his voice. You fell asleep and when you 398 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,400 woke up, you still need to hear his voice because you didn't 399 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:46,320 learn from his voice. You didn't hear in His voice 400 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:48,440 that He'll never leave you nor forsake you. 401 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,600 You didn't hear in His voice that He is always near. 402 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:56,800 You didn't hear in His. So you May God have to keep on 403 00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:11,240 responding to your cry. They they will learn nothing 404 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:15,560 otherwise they would repent and be forgiven. 405 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,960 They would turn. Then he said to them, he said to 406 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,520 them, if you don't understand this parable, here it is. 407 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,120 He's about to unlock something for you. 408 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:26,720 But remember, he said, even if I tell you, you still not going to 409 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:28,960 understand. So, but but say right now I'm 410 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:35,200 about to understand tonight I want to tell you even in this 411 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:41,160 word tonight, this word is meant to till the soil of your heart. 412 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:46,160 And already for some of you, your soil has gotten richer, 413 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:50,960 right? Sometime in messages God's 414 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,600 wedding, he's, he's sifting through the soil. 415 00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:00,080 If you don't understand this parable, how will you understand 416 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,600 any parable if you don't understand this one? 417 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:06,600 Because all parables, all parables come with this 418 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:11,000 principle. All parables have to be sown, 419 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:18,120 and all parables could only be understood to the measure of the 420 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:23,680 richness of your soil. So he like if you don't take 421 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,400 care of the soul of your heart, you won't ever understand me. 422 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:35,320 And this is so crazy. EJ we understand him when he do 423 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:39,480 something for us. So most testimonies is about 424 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,160 what he did. You rarely hear people testify 425 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,200 about what they know he about to do. 426 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:52,200 So a lot of a lot of when we under, we only understand him at 427 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:56,640 the bless us level. We don't understand when we're 428 00:32:56,640 --> 00:33:02,000 in the middle. So we spent a whole middle 429 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:07,080 season begging for understanding when the whole point of the 430 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:12,640 middle was to walk with him and learn how to walk with him, not 431 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:18,560 wait on breakthrough. Let me tell you if you get 432 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,920 breakthrough at the beginning. The beginning of the valley. 433 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,400 You got all the breakthrough you need for the rest of the valley. 434 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:27,960 Hallelujah. Here we go, Here we go, here we 435 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:30,280 go, here we go. Let me explain. 436 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,880 Let me explain. The farmer shows the message of 437 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,720 the Kingdom. I love him because he's now 438 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,600 explaining to his disciples. And this is blessing because 439 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:39,000 there was some people. Y'all get this? 440 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:43,560 There was a group of people he didn't explain to, but he put it 441 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:45,880 in the word. So we got the explanation. 442 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:50,200 Let me talk to this side. So, so right now, right right 443 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:55,720 here, Jake right here that he's talking to his his people, he's 444 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,000 saying there's some people over there they're not going to 445 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,320 understand, but because y'all walking with me, let me explain 446 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:03,120 to you, I need to I'm trying to pull y'all into it right now. 447 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,880 Bless him, there is thousands of people. 448 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:09,360 He just said a parable to don't understand. 449 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,480 He gathers the ones he's called to and he breaks it down. 450 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:21,520 We get the breakdown. So God is saying there is a 451 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:25,440 people who I am trying to make sure you don't have to go 452 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,239 through what the ignorant Pharisees have to go through, he 453 00:34:32,199 --> 00:34:34,560 says. I'm trying to help you, the 454 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:36,719 farmer souls. The message of the Kingdom. 455 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:43,000 What falls on the beaten path represents those who hear the 456 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:46,760 message, but immediately Satan appears and snatches it from 457 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:52,360 their hearts immediately when immediately, and what is sewn on 458 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:56,480 gravel represents those who hear the message and receive it 459 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,440 joyfully. They receive it, how come on 460 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:00,400 they receive it? How? 461 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:17,120 Right PT PT PT. Joyfully, joyfully, you receive 462 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:18,320 it. Joyfully. 463 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:22,040 Oh, you got to get this. You receive. 464 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:27,120 Why would you go through all the work to receive it, but not do 465 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,840 the work to give it a place to live? 466 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,160 God, God is going to honor you. He's here. 467 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:37,920 He's like, I see your notebook. I see you ready. 468 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:47,160 But but because their hearts fail to sink a deep root, they 469 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:50,480 don't endure for long. So it's the people that's 470 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,640 excited and they witch you and they bless you and they're 471 00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:57,280 witching them. Pretty soon they just do the 472 00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,680 fade away, not the Rockaway the fade away. 473 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:02,760 They don't. They see the Rockaway you rock 474 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:07,720 back. Some folks be right and and it's 475 00:36:07,720 --> 00:36:11,080 why why they receive it joyfully. 476 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:13,840 See, this can be something that you understand about 477 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:18,120 relationships as well. People receive you joyfully, but 478 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,560 because they don't have no deep roots, they don't endure for 479 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:27,320 long. For when trouble or persecution 480 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:31,840 comes on account of the message. See, folks that walked out your 481 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,080 life didn't know it was an attack of the word, not an 482 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:38,680 attack of see, that's why you don't take take it personal. 483 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,200 I understand when people come in my life and then they walk out 484 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:42,800 for whatever reason or people get offended. 485 00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:45,480 I understand the enemy is trying to discourage the word on my 486 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,560 life. It's not personal. 487 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:54,240 I keep my eyes fixed on him. They immediately wilt and fall 488 00:36:54,240 --> 00:36:57,560 away. And what is shown among thorns 489 00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:59,480 represents those who hear the message. 490 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:06,440 But they allow the cares of this life and the seduction of wealth 491 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:11,680 and the desires for other things to crowd out and choke the 492 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:17,840 message. What, you mean that I could be 493 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:22,160 worried? I can receive the word on 494 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:27,760 Sunday, but Monday through Friday I am worried about 495 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:31,880 everything else. But the word I received and 496 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:36,160 everything I was engaged in during the week chokes the word 497 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:42,360 I. I love it because some of you 498 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,520 might be like the seduction. Of wealth, well, I don't care 499 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:49,360 about wealth. I I like this part because then 500 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,920 it cleans up for every the desires for other things. 501 00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:00,240 I love it because it can be career, it can be property, it 502 00:38:00,240 --> 00:38:04,160 can, it can be it can be food. Some of you the word, you get 503 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,840 the word stolen because you worried about eating after the 504 00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:12,640 fast and you wonder why you ain't got no revelation on 505 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:17,520 fasting yet because every fast you worried about other things. 506 00:38:19,240 --> 00:38:21,040 And it says that the other things. 507 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:26,400 I love this word. It crowds out it crowds the the 508 00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:34,280 the the seed has no room to be cultivated like like you're here 509 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:36,840 tonight. Every word being spoken, 510 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,720 whatever God is planting in your heart, you have an obligation to 511 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:49,000 actually go and nurture it it. Says chokes the message so that 512 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:51,120 it produces nothing and you're afraid. 513 00:38:51,240 --> 00:38:53,320 Do you know how many people we see that are here all in? 514 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,400 They're frustrated because they can't produce. 515 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:57,920 Why can't you produce? Because there's things. 516 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,080 You're worried about things. You're worried about in your 517 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:06,880 life things things, and the worry of the other stuff forces 518 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:12,760 you to grab everything. People, relationships, food, 519 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:18,080 jam, and whatever it may be, you're trying to you're not 520 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:21,720 letting the word push out your toxins. 521 00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:30,800 It's almost like like you're satisfied with using gausses for 522 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:35,720 your wounds. You just want to soak up the 523 00:39:35,720 --> 00:39:42,440 bleeding. You don't want to heal, so you 524 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:44,480 just. Gather friends and you gather 525 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:46,680 relations. You gather this and you gather 526 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:50,360 busy, busy and you gather and it's like, oh, I wish I'm going 527 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:52,600 to jump ahead. No, I'm not going to jump ahead. 528 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:56,160 I got something to tell you that is a game changer. 529 00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:58,800 Let's keep reading. But. 530 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:00,520 What is sewn on? Good soil, you'll say? 531 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:01,440 Good soil. That's me. 532 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:03,720 Come on, Say this is my part. This is my part. 533 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,560 Represents those who open their hearts. 534 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:13,640 The valve. The valve opens their hearts to 535 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:18,560 receive the message, and their lives bear good fruit. 536 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:25,080 Some yield a harvest of 3060 even. 100 fold. 537 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:36,960 Keep the soil good and the weeds trimmed until the promise is 538 00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:41,080 harvest. What do you mean PT keep? 539 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:48,960 Keep the soil good and the weeds trimmed until the promise is 540 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:51,040 harvested. What do you mean PT? 541 00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,720 What do you mean PT? So there's a part, if you keep 542 00:40:53,720 --> 00:40:57,560 reading, where it says that after a while you see the ear 543 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:05,440 and there's the blade. Some of us stop treating the 544 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:09,600 soil and the seed because we see progress. 545 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,480 That's why I love J TS. He's the it's all about 546 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:24,000 progression. The enemy's job is to stop what 547 00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:28,040 progression? So so I can't just work on my 548 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:31,720 left hand. My left hand need my right hand 549 00:41:31,720 --> 00:41:34,960 to be good and then my left and right hand need me to have good 550 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:38,240 footwork. Like that's why Tom Brady, till 551 00:41:38,240 --> 00:41:40,360 he retired, was working on the 1%. 552 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:43,400 And then because the way he programmed, I guarantee you he's 553 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:44,920 still working on his quarterbacking. 554 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:54,920 I'm trying to help somebody. And then you're, you ready? 555 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:58,360 I, I was supposed to say this earlier, but some of you don't 556 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,560 realize it, but you're mad at God. 557 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:05,680 You're mad at God because the word don't seem to be working. 558 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,160 And some of you are in a season where you're like, why keep? 559 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:14,000 Going. Be careful because you might be 560 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:18,160 one of the elect who get drawn away and it doesn't mean you're 561 00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,840 going to stop coming to church. It's a lot of people go to 562 00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:24,080 church and they heart not there. Hallelujah. 563 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:25,440 That's just a warning for somebody. 564 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:29,320 Listen, listen, listen. So it's because. 565 00:42:29,720 --> 00:42:33,440 You didn't realize God was walking through with you through 566 00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:39,400 the harvest. This is why you got to know when 567 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:43,040 it's a blessing that's caused to keep momentum. 568 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:44,480 OK, here we go. Let me back up. 569 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:48,560 You got to know when God blesses you with a little bit to 570 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:53,760 encourage you to keep going. Some of y'all took you a little 571 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,720 bit and thought this was the harvest. 572 00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:59,200 This is the promise. No, that's an encouragement. 573 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:07,240 Yeah, that God. But what I have sown don't match 574 00:43:07,240 --> 00:43:08,640 up to this. This, this. 575 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:13,560 This is not the harvest. It's a harvest, but it ain't the 576 00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:17,760 harvest. Right? 577 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:25,000 You over here quitting while because you got manna F there. 578 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:26,400 There you go. I ain't heard you for a while. 579 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:32,000 FF you with me F look like Look it says you get the you get the 580 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,040 ear, then you get the blade, then you get the full. 581 00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:34,920 Corn. Then it's time to. 582 00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:39,040 Harvest every phase of the harvest like do you? 583 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:41,200 Ain't it funny? God will allow you to see a 584 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:46,960 little bit and say don't touch it and some of y'all put the 585 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:51,080 sickle to it just like you. Like this didn't last you but a 586 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:58,320 month? And you haven't mastered the 587 00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:04,080 skill of nurturing the seed and the soil until you harvest it. 588 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:07,760 And then after harvest season, guess what we got to do again? 589 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:12,920 We got to till the soil and get ready for another season. 590 00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:20,360 OK, Hallelujah PT keep the soil good. 591 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:24,720 You read that part. Then turn the soil and prepare 592 00:44:24,720 --> 00:44:27,200 it for another season of harvesting. 593 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:35,280 Somebody said don't stop, look. Look at what turning the soil 594 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,240 is. Turning the soil helps to break 595 00:44:37,240 --> 00:44:41,920 up the dry crust on the surface of the soil, allowing air, 596 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:46,120 nutrients and water to get deeper into the ground where the 597 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,800 plant roots. Can access them. 598 00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:55,680 Makes it easier for new seeds to sprout through the surface of 599 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:57,040 the soil. Here it is. 600 00:44:57,400 --> 00:44:59,640 It interrupts germination of weeds. 601 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:06,960 Come on tilling turning the soil, you have to till, let. 602 00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:11,440 Me put it this way. Tilling too often. 603 00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:16,400 I'm I'm I'm the Holy Spirit. Help me help them. 604 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:23,320 Tilling too often or tilling too deep can do more damage than 605 00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:28,680 good soil than good to your soil tilling too often. 606 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:33,320 This is why there are seasons. Where we're just and then like 607 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:38,120 the last few months, you noticed what God been doing like, oh, 608 00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:41,240 that one hurt and I'm OK, I'm going to process that one. 609 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:45,040 What have you been doing till Whenever you find yourself in a 610 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:47,520 tilling season with God, what do you think He's getting ready to 611 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:49,880 do? What? 612 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:52,440 Do you think you get ready to do look? 613 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:58,200 Look, look, look. He said he said he said tilling 614 00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:01,480 too often or deep can can do more damage than good to your 615 00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:03,720 soil. So that's why you got to learn 616 00:46:03,720 --> 00:46:07,240 how to trust and rest because it's necessary. 617 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:13,040 This is what I also read in here EJ that if tilling too much 618 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:15,880 that's. Why? 619 00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:18,080 I said as the farmer. Plant it and what do you do? 620 00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:26,960 Go to sleep, go to sleep. OK, look, look, it tells me that 621 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:34,080 harvest is inevitable, he said. There's a time for you to just 622 00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:37,880 trust me and rest. You keep on trying to turn the 623 00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,760 soil 'cause you ain't liking what you're getting. 624 00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:44,440 Just. You just I'm gonna go on this 625 00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:46,520 friendship and I'm. I'm going to go in this 626 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:48,640 relationship, I'm going to go to this church and I'm going to do 627 00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:51,120 my own schedule and I'm going to serve when I want to and I'm 628 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:53,440 going to you just keep telling me you trying to work up a 629 00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:56,160 formula to get you in the promised land and it's only 1 630 00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:57,760 formula that's going to get you in the promise. 631 00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:07,580 Trust God. Turning the soil. 632 00:47:08,300 --> 00:47:12,260 Some gardeners disagree on how often you should till your 633 00:47:12,260 --> 00:47:14,140 garden. You know I talk to them, all my 634 00:47:14,140 --> 00:47:21,320 garden buddies, all my gardener buddies, some till once, some 635 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:27,360 till twice or even 4 * a year. But most believe spring tilling 636 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:37,880 is non negotiable. The season's dry soil and warm 637 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:44,360 weather reduces the likelihood of soil compaction and poor root 638 00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:49,000 penetration. There are some seasons, Remember 639 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:53,480 this, Remember the word over a year ago that you're stepping 640 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:55,000 into a year. Your hardest thing to do is 641 00:47:55,000 --> 00:48:00,520 going to be to stand and then love quest. 642 00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:02,200 We've seen ourselves. There's been seasons where we 643 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,000 just got to till. We got to till. 644 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:06,400 We wouldn't be where we are if we didn't till. 645 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:09,960 And I feel like right now that we're in one of those seasons 646 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:12,640 again, Emma, where God is saying, look, there's a harvest, 647 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:14,480 but man, you got to till right now. 648 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:19,760 You got to till then, then Jesus. 649 00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:23,400 Matthew 13, Matthew 13. Bear with me. 650 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:26,920 Then Jesus taught them another parable. 651 00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:30,040 Now we about to read another parable. 652 00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:33,240 Heaven's Kingdom can be compared to a farmer who planted a good 653 00:48:33,240 --> 00:48:39,600 seed in his field. But when everyone was asleep, an 654 00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:44,040 enemy came and planted weeds among the wheats and ran away. 655 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:46,200 About to see something right here, right about to see 656 00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:52,720 something right here. Heaven's Kingdom can be compared 657 00:48:52,720 --> 00:48:55,720 to a farmer who plants a good seed in his field. 658 00:48:55,960 --> 00:49:04,320 But when everyone was asleep, an enemy came and planted weeds. 659 00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:09,320 And This is why I tell you and warn you to when the storm pass, 660 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:15,120 don't think it's Breakthrough all the time. 661 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:18,680 No, the storm you was experiencing was the enemy 662 00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:22,160 getting into your garden and he was planting some of you like 663 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:24,680 whoa, breakthrough and you breakthrough, breakthrough, 664 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:25,800 breakthrough, breakthrough, breakthrough. 665 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:28,080 But you didn't. Realize that the enemy planted a 666 00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:32,160 tear in your heart. And what is that tear? 667 00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:34,480 Force for later. And here you go. 668 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:36,960 Here's go some of y'all. How did I get back here again? 669 00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:43,080 How did I get here again? Yeah. 670 00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:47,800 You didn't realize when you asleep, when you didn't take 671 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:59,030 that advice, it was like. I don't. 672 00:49:59,030 --> 00:50:00,390 I don't. The enemy now doesn't need to 673 00:50:00,390 --> 00:50:02,910 bother you because he put some menu that has the power. 674 00:50:03,030 --> 00:50:07,950 It's a birth for cycle. This is why we we often have to 675 00:50:07,950 --> 00:50:11,830 check our hearts. OK, OK, OK. 676 00:50:12,710 --> 00:50:15,110 But but when everyone was asleep, an enemy came and 677 00:50:15,110 --> 00:50:17,070 planted weeds among the weed and ran away. 678 00:50:17,720 --> 00:50:21,560 When the weeds sprouted and bore grain, the weeds also appeared. 679 00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:29,160 When weeds sprouted and bore grain, the weeds also appeared. 680 00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:33,600 So the farmers, hired hens came to him and said, Sir, Sir, Sir, 681 00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:39,440 wasn't that good seed? Wasn't that good seed that was 682 00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:43,720 planted? But not one of them people was 683 00:50:43,720 --> 00:50:50,920 like PJEJ come Oh my God that was so good. 684 00:50:52,720 --> 00:50:54,800 Didn't the farmer plant good seed? 685 00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:58,720 Where did all the weeds come from? 686 00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:08,440 How did weeds get in my heart? How have I been around this 687 00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:11,720 environment for so long?

This has to be the work of the 703 00:52:03,720 --> 00:52:10,240 enemy because all I do is plant good seeds, they replied. 704 00:52:10,240 --> 00:52:13,240 Here it is. Do you want us to go and gather 705 00:52:13,240 --> 00:52:16,320 up all the weeds? So then there's seasons where 706 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:19,840 leaders have instructions. By God to not fool with weedy 707 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:31,010 people. The I see weeds, you don't, so 708 00:52:31,010 --> 00:52:33,530 it's my fault if I fool with you in your weedy season. 709 00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:46,280 Time with God don't just help you interpret the word, it also 710 00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:47,600 help you interpret people's heart. 711 00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:56,640 Do you want us to go and gather up the weeds? 712 00:52:56,720 --> 00:52:57,920 Here it is.

You might uproot the wheat at 715 00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:12,800 the same time. So what he's saying is trust the 716 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:20,280 good seed is going to do what it do if you fool with weedy people 717 00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:23,640 too soon. What, They're just going through 718 00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:27,600 a moment. You're just going through a 719 00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:31,920 moment.

We could not do that some years 745 00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:02,560 ago. You see how many people were 746 00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:10,720 like, no. Right, me and me and Adam, I 747 00:55:10,720 --> 00:55:12,520 think me and Adam was in the studio the other day and we was 748 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:15,200 looking at Troy doing some work. Now I'm asking Troy, hey, hey, 749 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:16,520 hey. I want you to be a part of this 750 00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:18,120 project. I want you to be a part of some 751 00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:19,880 writing. Like I couldn't do that in his 752 00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:22,680 Wheatie season. God said leave him alone. 753 00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:29,200 And when it's harvest time, the good seed overpower the Wheatie 754 00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:34,280 season. And now what you see, because 755 00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:37,160 you have allowed people to throw they they Wheatie season 756 00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:45,200 tantrums if they stick around. You see how rich the fruit is 757 00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:50,400 and you see how the good seed now is able to talk back to you 758 00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:53,760 and give you revelation. And now you appreciate the 759 00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:55,880 farmer for not plucking up the weeds. 760 00:56:05,720 --> 00:56:07,480 And some of y'all want me to give up on you. 761 00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:09,200 But guess what? I'm just going to let you go 762 00:56:09,240 --> 00:56:17,840 through your Wheatie season. I'll tell, I'll tell, I'll tell, 763 00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:23,000 I'll tell my harvesters gather the weeds first and tie them all 764 00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:27,240 in bundles to be burned. Then they will harvest the weed 765 00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:30,800 and put it in. I could tell, I could tell. 766 00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:37,120 T Roy has has absolutely burned his Wheaties, right? 767 00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:42,720 You ready? God is a Good Shepherd and he's 768 00:56:42,720 --> 00:56:48,040 a good farmer. He will use the weeds to cause 769 00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:51,160 his seed what the enemy meant for evil. 770 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:55,240 If you just go, if you, if you just not get offended and 771 00:56:55,240 --> 00:56:59,360 realize you're around a Good Shepherd like like no 772 00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:03,280 abandonment. You can actually go through your 773 00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:08,920 weedy season and when you say hey, hey, hey, hey, ask Troy 774 00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:11,360 every now and then I'll come in there and give him a little 775 00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:13,680 assurance month.

But if I was just trying to that 778 00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:28,200 like, because Troy came here with a bag of gifts and if I saw 779 00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:35,960 a gift over soul, I would have manipulated soil, OK? 780 00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:39,040 And then one day he would have went to another church because 781 00:57:39,040 --> 00:57:43,560 God couldn't trust me with him. And then we would have handed 782 00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:48,680 off to somebody else, somebody that think he can get his way. 783 00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:52,400 And this is what you got to understand about this house. 784 00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:57,040 It's safe to be broken. You're not going to be 785 00:57:57,040 --> 00:58:08,200 abandoned. It's revival week, not a regular 786 00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:11,680 Sunday, not a regular Sunday. OK, This is a word. 787 00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:14,120 This is a word. This is a word that I sat at a 788 00:58:14,120 --> 00:58:16,760 table and I got for you, for somebody. 789 00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:24,400 It's a soil issue. It's not a Mama. 790 00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:27,760 It's not a how you was raised. It's not about you, was it? 791 00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:30,360 It's not. It's a soil issue. 792 00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:38,480 Matthew 21 Now Now as they were approaching Jerusalem, they 793 00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:41,040 arrived at the place of the stables near the Mount of 794 00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:43,480 Olives. Jesus sent two of his disciples 795 00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:46,440 ahead, saying As soon as you enter the village. 796 00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:48,320 You. Will find a donkey. 797 00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:53,800 You're going to find a donkey tethered with her young colt. 798 00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:59,840 Untie them both. And bring them to me. 799 00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:06,240 And and if anyone stops you ask what? 800 00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:08,360 And ask what are what are you doing? 801 00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:16,320 Just tell them the Lord of all needs them, the Lord of all 802 00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:24,440 needs them, the Lord of all needs them, and he will let you 803 00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:30,000 take them. All of this happen to fulfill a 804 00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:36,080 prophecy that that that this is that season where the Lord is 805 00:59:36,080 --> 00:59:38,600 asking anything. There is a. 806 00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:44,640 Grace, that anything that has you tied up, it has to untie 807 00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:49,680 you. He's sending a word to untie you 808 00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:54,400 because you have entered a season, like it or not, where he 809 00:59:54,400 --> 01:00:02,400 has need of you. Tell Zion's daughter. 810 01:00:05,560 --> 01:00:09,400 Look, your king arrives. He's coming to you humbly 811 01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:13,320 sitting on a donkey, riding on a donkey. 812 01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:21,040 Look, you the donkey. He the King, and it's time to 813 01:00:21,040 --> 01:00:27,560 enter the village. God has need of you because he 814 01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:34,240 wants to ride you into some places, because it's time for 815 01:00:34,240 --> 01:00:38,560 him to show up some places. So the two disciples went on 816 01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:40,840 ahead and did as Jesus had instructed them. 817 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:43,040 What did he do? They did as Jesus instructed 818 01:00:43,040 --> 01:00:44,920 them to do. They did as Jesus instructed 819 01:00:44,920 --> 01:00:47,200 them to do, Untie the donkey because I have need of them. 820 01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:51,640 This is that season. I want to go further down 821 01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:55,120 because there's context. Somebody say contacts, somebody 822 01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:59,320 say turning point. Somebody say context, somebody 823 01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:02,920 say turning point, right? Jesus said, I need this donkey 824 01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:05,280 because it's time for me to fulfill a prophecy. 825 01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:09,240 I'm about to ride in here and and and and, and, and, and this 826 01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:12,840 is this is this palm week.

The entire city was thrown into 830 01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:27,360 an uproar. Somebody say uproar. 831 01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:31,960 Some asked who is this man and the crowd shouted back. 832 01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:39,720 This is Jesus. He's the prophet from Nazareth 833 01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:43,400 of Galilee. Upon entering Jerusalem, Jesus 834 01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:46,560 went directly into the temple. Wait a minute, So all these 835 01:01:46,560 --> 01:01:51,320 people is. Like Jesus, Hosanna, Hosanna and 836 01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:53,520 it. Just is how I see Jesus, they 837 01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:56,080 caring for him, they laying down palms and he goes. 838 01:01:56,080 --> 01:01:57,680 Straight He's about his father's business. 839 01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:01,480 He's not caught up about who likes him. 840 01:02:03,040 --> 01:02:04,600 He's not trying to make friends right now. 841 01:02:04,600 --> 01:02:07,920 He's on a mission. He's here fulfilling prophecy, 842 01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:10,960 and that's all God wants to do. There's a word out about you. 843 01:02:12,320 --> 01:02:14,200 I'll say those. I'll say that again for people 844 01:02:14,200 --> 01:02:17,440 who actually get it. There's a word out about you. 845 01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:23,200 And God is going to do anything and allow anything to help him 846 01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:29,320 get get His Word fulfilled. Come on, somebody say there's a 847 01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:33,760 word out about me and God will see it come to pass. 848 01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:38,160 He say he say he'd go in the temple. 849 01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:42,520 He went in the temple area and drove away all the merchants who 850 01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:44,320 was buying and selling their goods. 851 01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:46,320 Remember what I said at the beginning? 852 01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:47,800 Here we go.

It's important because that word 859 01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:22,520 fulfilled is vital to the crossword fulfilled and the 860 01:03:22,520 --> 01:03:26,280 crossword is fulfilled to fulfill the resurrection word. 861 01:03:30,720 --> 01:03:36,320 He overturned what he do. What he do Overturn is a turning 862 01:03:36,320 --> 01:03:40,240 point. He overturned the tables of the 863 01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:42,600 money changers.

I said brother, if you didn't 876 01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:41,240 understand what I just said, Bohemian brother and sister, and 877 01:04:41,240 --> 01:04:43,840 they sent the word and said that the next. 878 01:04:43,840 --> 01:04:45,760 Move. Of revival in love quest is 879 01:04:45,760 --> 01:04:52,560 going to be a revival of prayer. So then all these words, I'm 880 01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:54,560 like, OK, I put that.

Wait a minute. 886 01:05:18,120 --> 01:05:25,200 So God had to repurpose the temple so that purpose can be 887 01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:30,320 fulfilled. OK OK so tables had to be turned 888 01:05:30,840 --> 01:05:33,000 so miracles can show. Up. 889 01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:36,800 All right, all right.

You know the song we sang, it 892 01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:51,040 costs? Or is this a song and it's going 893 01:05:51,040 --> 01:05:54,800 to take more than a few people to walk this walk. 894 01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:58,280 And that's what I'm saying. Some of y'all don't really want 895 01:05:58,280 --> 01:06:01,320 to walk with God. You just want a church home, you 896 01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:07,480 just want community, you just want friends, but but carrying 897 01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:13,440 glory it it it costs for you to forget about being accepted. 898 01:06:18,710 --> 01:06:20,910 Let's keep reading. And Jesus healed him, and the 899 01:06:20,910 --> 01:06:23,950 children circled around him, shouting out blessings and 900 01:06:24,110 --> 01:06:28,160 praises to the Son of David.

Kingdom of Heaven. 905 01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:42,200 Can be the usual, OK, we'll let you let me see. 906 01:06:42,200 --> 01:06:43,760 Let you say law on that for a second. 907 01:06:44,280 --> 01:06:47,080 OK OK let me turn my mic off so I can chew this man. 908 01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:53,800 I need y'all to. Take a real good look at this 909 01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:56,360 because I'm about to go. Somewhere. 910 01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:24,800 Right the the the. Price of walking with God can 911 01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:31,920 cost you to live unpopular when business stops as usual. 912 01:07:32,840 --> 01:07:35,320 The Kingdom of heaven can be the usual. 913 01:07:35,840 --> 01:07:40,920 Y'all got to follow me. Beware of turning the movement 914 01:07:40,960 --> 01:07:45,000 of the Kingdom into a business model for revival. 915 01:07:45,920 --> 01:07:47,000 OK, OK. OK, OK, OK. 916 01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:57,320 Beware of turning the movement of the king. 917 01:07:57,480 --> 01:08:02,640 Not every brides, not every church is a movement in the 918 01:08:02,640 --> 01:08:05,120 earth. Although God is called the bride 919 01:08:05,120 --> 01:08:06,240 to be a. Movement. 920 01:08:07,960 --> 01:08:12,360 But when you know what you're called to be and caring, you got 921 01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:17,680 to be careful that you don't fall in line with the normal. 922 01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:23,880 Because as I said last night, as Pastor Oscar said, there's a lot 923 01:08:23,880 --> 01:08:28,800 of dead churches. And that's not evil to say 924 01:08:29,680 --> 01:08:35,800 There's a lot of dead brides and then there's some alive brides. 925 01:08:36,359 --> 01:08:42,000 And the alive brides have a responsibility to show the dead 926 01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:48,399 bride what living looks like. So we can. 927 01:08:48,960 --> 01:08:51,880 Pastor Oscar, text me today. All I said was thank you, he 928 01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:55,399 said, he said, he said I'm going to tell you what he said 929 01:08:55,479 --> 01:08:58,640 accurately. I'm about to give you something 930 01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:02,560 and and this I don't know if my wife didn't hurt me when I was 931 01:09:02,560 --> 01:09:06,000 in there, but I was I, I was on something that I was like what 932 01:09:07,800 --> 01:09:09,319 God. Why aren't you sharing this with 933 01:09:09,319 --> 01:09:14,160 me? I'm like a little kid when they 934 01:09:14,160 --> 01:09:16,080 come to talking to, to, to, to God. 935 01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:17,319 Now I'm like. Why you share? 936 01:09:17,399 --> 01:09:20,640 Why? You want me to say that Where 937 01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:24,120 you go, Oscar, Where you go Oscar, there you go. 938 01:09:25,200 --> 01:09:28,000 I said thank you. He said it was such a blessing 939 01:09:28,000 --> 01:09:29,640 and an honor to be with you guys. 940 01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:33,920 I don't get tired of saying it. Your church is alive. 941 01:10:02,680 --> 01:10:04,760 And I believe his church is alive because he's alive. 942 01:10:04,920 --> 01:10:08,640 But when another church can come in and see an alive church if 943 01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:10,880 they dare, if they're going to come back to life and. 944 01:10:15,160 --> 01:10:17,040 This is why we're not going to be fooled with sometimes, 945 01:10:17,040 --> 01:10:19,360 because there's a lot of brides that don't want to live. 946 01:10:22,080 --> 01:10:25,440 All right, man, follow me. If you got to go, you can go. 947 01:10:25,440 --> 01:10:27,640 You got to go, you can go. We'll be back here tomorrow 948 01:10:27,640 --> 01:10:28,440 night. Same vibe. 949 01:10:31,400 --> 01:10:36,320 You ready some gifts? Oh, some gifts. 950 01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:41,760 Oh, some gifts aren't meant to be packaged. 951 01:10:41,760 --> 01:10:45,920 I'm. Gonna break it down for you I I 952 01:10:45,920 --> 01:10:48,160 can't tell you I've been resting a lot I've been resting a lot 953 01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:50,200 I've been resting a lot I've been having conversations with 954 01:10:50,440 --> 01:10:52,480 people like Lisa I've been having conversations with my 955 01:10:52,480 --> 01:10:55,920 wife and I've just been like like like what's going on like 956 01:10:55,920 --> 01:10:58,560 there's there's there's administrative things there's 957 01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:01,360 there's things happening within the church people getting burned 958 01:11:01,360 --> 01:11:04,880 out people falling away people people quitting people like the 959 01:11:04,880 --> 01:11:08,120 body and then you go to another church and you see it though and 960 01:11:08,120 --> 01:11:10,080 I said. It last night the church. 961 01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:15,800 The Sunday church is sick. The the Sunday some of you are 962 01:11:15,800 --> 01:11:22,640 Sunday Christians, the Sunday the North American Sunday church 963 01:11:22,640 --> 01:11:26,920 is sick. We have idolized Sunday. 964 01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:33,560 Look, if you don't go to church on Sunday, here it is. 965 01:11:34,040 --> 01:11:39,920 Most of y'all give the world 8 hours minimum a day. 966 01:11:40,040 --> 01:11:45,000 Five days. Sunday you get antsy for a few 967 01:11:45,000 --> 01:11:50,040 hours. Sunday church is what we do 968 01:11:50,040 --> 01:11:54,240 Sunday. Monday through Friday is world. 969 01:11:55,640 --> 01:11:59,320 What did he say? The cares of the world chokes 970 01:11:59,320 --> 01:12:03,600 the word. Why is not the church powerful? 971 01:12:04,040 --> 01:12:09,760 Because we have the cares of the world and it chokes out purpose. 972 01:12:09,960 --> 01:12:13,000 It chokes out anointing and we lose our way. 973 01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:16,520 And I don't know, some gifts aren't meant to be packaged. 974 01:12:16,520 --> 01:12:18,280 Some gifts aren't meant to be packed. 975 01:12:18,280 --> 01:12:20,600 You got some churches aren't meant to be packaged. 976 01:12:20,880 --> 01:12:22,680 I just need you to get this before I move forward. 977 01:12:22,880 --> 01:12:24,920 Some gifts aren't meant to be packaged. 978 01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:28,280 I'm talking to 100% of y'all your entrepreneurs, your 979 01:12:28,280 --> 01:12:31,200 business owners, you soon to be business owners. 980 01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:36,960 Like, like, like, like God is revealing to me who I am, who 981 01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:39,040 the church is. You got to hear me. 982 01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:42,600 And he told me this today. Son, keep doing what you're 983 01:12:42,600 --> 01:12:46,560 doing. Some gifts aren't meant to be 984 01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:56,240 packaged. We've packaged the church, so we 985 01:12:56,240 --> 01:13:02,000 got to get out at the time we told you we got to create an 986 01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:05,360 experience that keeps you coming back. 987 01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:10,840 We've packaged the church. You look on social media, we're 988 01:13:10,840 --> 01:13:15,560 packaged. Jesus was never a package. 989 01:13:16,040 --> 01:13:17,560 He didn't. They didn't even know who he 990 01:13:17,560 --> 01:13:21,320 was, some of them. And we think through branding 991 01:13:21,320 --> 01:13:24,720 us, the world's going to respect us and know us more. 992 01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:28,280 So branding has taken the place of anointing. 993 01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:34,080 I'm going to talk to you. I'm going to talk to you and 994 01:13:34,080 --> 01:13:38,400 tell you what the what the God, the good God said Some gifts 995 01:13:38,400 --> 01:13:39,840 aren't meant to be packaged. You ready? 996 01:13:40,240 --> 01:13:46,400 Packaging. What did I write here? 997 01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:51,920 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Packaging, while great for 998 01:13:51,920 --> 01:13:56,200 branding, also can be restricting for purpose. 999 01:14:02,840 --> 01:14:08,560 This is why it's foreign to walk with people who God has anointed 1000 01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:12,560 to be shifty. JT, you know what that word is, 1001 01:14:12,560 --> 01:14:16,400 huh? JTJT trains some shifty ball 1002 01:14:16,400 --> 01:14:17,960 players. What's the sheet you can't keep 1003 01:14:17,960 --> 01:14:19,680 a shifty ball player in front of you are? 1004 01:14:21,880 --> 01:14:22,840 You ready? Here it is. 1005 01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:27,880 Here it is. Some people are too set to be 1006 01:14:27,880 --> 01:14:32,680 moved. OK, OK, OK, Can I say this on 1007 01:14:32,680 --> 01:14:35,880 this side? Some people are too set to be 1008 01:14:35,880 --> 01:14:38,120 moved. And you're wondering why God 1009 01:14:38,120 --> 01:14:41,800 ain't moving. He is, but you can't be moved, 1010 01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:45,520 and you only know movement when you move. 1011 01:14:49,560 --> 01:14:55,120 Some people are too set. Your branding is too strong. 1012 01:14:55,280 --> 01:15:00,880 He can't change nothing. So God in this hour is looking 1013 01:15:00,880 --> 01:15:04,400 for people who this is in the Bible. 1014 01:15:04,400 --> 01:15:06,160 People, I'm sorry if I believe it. 1015 01:15:07,520 --> 01:15:11,560 And we're in a time where, where, where, where man has 1016 01:15:11,560 --> 01:15:14,120 found the formula to be successful. 1017 01:15:16,320 --> 01:15:18,880 You want a successful church, Here's the formula. 1018 01:15:19,040 --> 01:15:21,280 And the world is telling you if you're not doing this, if you're 1019 01:15:21,280 --> 01:15:23,880 not waking up at that time, if you don't do this, if you don't 1020 01:15:23,880 --> 01:15:25,360 do that, let me tell you something. 1021 01:15:25,480 --> 01:15:28,960 There's order, there's formulas and all that, but every now and 1022 01:15:28,960 --> 01:15:34,400 then God raise a people. God will raise a people. 1023 01:15:34,880 --> 01:15:45,200 Who he creates to interrupt the formula so there's a learning 1024 01:15:45,200 --> 01:15:50,240 process because if you're called to do something that didn't come 1025 01:15:50,240 --> 01:15:57,280 with a blueprint you have to birth systems All right all 1026 01:15:57,320 --> 01:16:04,520 right OK OK OK A lack of mobility can impact the modeling 1027 01:16:04,520 --> 01:16:12,520 of fragility where can you find. Where where can you find an 1028 01:16:12,520 --> 01:16:19,160 agile church? That's that's what I meant there 1029 01:16:19,280 --> 01:16:21,240 I got I play on some words later on Fragilius. 1030 01:16:21,760 --> 01:16:26,040 Those are agility. That Where's the bride that 1031 01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:32,840 models agility? Apostles modeled agility. 1032 01:16:33,680 --> 01:16:38,040 The church was separated and they multiplied because no 1033 01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:41,080 matter where you sent them, they still plant it. 1034 01:16:42,600 --> 01:16:46,000 You ready? Some churches and people are too 1035 01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:54,800 set to be moved. Some of y'all are not ready for 1036 01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:59,880 God to reveal to you who you are because it'll require you to 1037 01:16:59,880 --> 01:17:03,080 move. You ready? 1038 01:17:03,280 --> 01:17:10,400 The bride has mastered packaging but lost the masters sentness. 1039 01:17:13,040 --> 01:17:18,200 We, we've mastered packaging, you know, in the efforts to 1040 01:17:18,200 --> 01:17:21,280 contend with the world in how to do business. 1041 01:17:23,720 --> 01:17:27,080 But what we have lost is our sentness. 1042 01:17:31,440 --> 01:17:35,760 And as God prepares for another generation to bring him home, to 1043 01:17:35,760 --> 01:17:41,560 bring him here, he actually has to do, he has to undo some of 1044 01:17:41,560 --> 01:17:43,520 the work. OK, let's not forget what I just 1045 01:17:43,520 --> 01:17:46,120 read. Let's go back to he came in the 1046 01:17:46,320 --> 01:17:49,160 he came in the temple and he turned over the tables. 1047 01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:53,680 And he says my house should not be a business center. 1048 01:17:54,600 --> 01:18:00,040 It should be a House of prayer. And in this house, prayer will 1049 01:18:00,040 --> 01:18:01,560 always supersede. Business. 1050 01:18:01,560 --> 01:18:03,920 No, no. No, no, no, don't hear me. 1051 01:18:04,280 --> 01:18:12,240 Some of you heard that we should not be good in business, but 1052 01:18:12,240 --> 01:18:14,800 business will not drive this movement. 1053 01:18:16,840 --> 01:18:21,760 Prayer will. OK, OK, OK, here we go. 1054 01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:24,960 Matthew 8. When Jesus saw the curious crowd 1055 01:18:25,080 --> 01:18:28,480 was growing by the minute, he told his disciples to get him 1056 01:18:28,480 --> 01:18:31,120 out of there. Get get him out of there to the 1057 01:18:31,120 --> 01:18:34,320 other side of the lake. As they left, a a religion 1058 01:18:34,480 --> 01:18:37,640 scholar asked if he could go along with him. 1059 01:18:37,640 --> 01:18:38,800 Here it is. You ready? 1060 01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:43,680 Say agile, say movement. Say Jesus. 1061 01:18:44,880 --> 01:18:48,880 He says he's this religious. Scholar say, can I go with you? 1062 01:18:49,480 --> 01:18:52,240 Can I go like everybody in here? Jesus, I want to go with you 1063 01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:53,440 here. You want you following? 1064 01:18:53,560 --> 01:18:56,720 Here's the word. I'll go with you wherever. 1065 01:18:57,120 --> 01:18:58,880 Use me. Lord, look what Jesus say. 1066 01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:02,400 Jesus was curt. Are you ready to rough it? 1067 01:19:05,520 --> 01:19:08,160 I want you to see this because a lot of people see this Scripture 1068 01:19:08,160 --> 01:19:11,640 as Jesus was saying he was homeless and he was poor. 1069 01:19:13,960 --> 01:19:16,800 Are you ready to rough it? We're not staying in the best 1070 01:19:16,800 --> 01:19:20,040 ends, you know, another follower said no, hold on, hold on, hold 1071 01:19:20,040 --> 01:19:20,600 on. You ready? 1072 01:19:20,720 --> 01:19:23,720 What he is saying is I am not create. 1073 01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:27,320 I don't I don't have a home because I'm called to move. 1074 01:19:34,120 --> 01:19:35,760 He said. Aren't you ready to rough it? 1075 01:19:36,560 --> 01:19:42,880 Because I, my bags stay packed. Whenever God needs me, he's 1076 01:19:42,880 --> 01:19:47,520 going to have me and that is foreign in today. 1077 01:19:48,320 --> 01:19:52,120 This is why he tells them don't take no purse, don't take no 1078 01:19:52,120 --> 01:19:55,160 money. You'll be no, you're going to 1079 01:19:55,160 --> 01:19:57,400 need some money because you it's going to cost this much to do 1080 01:19:57,400 --> 01:19:58,640 this. It's going to cost that much to 1081 01:19:58,640 --> 01:20:02,440 do that, sure. But he says the principle here 1082 01:20:02,720 --> 01:20:07,880 is wherever I send you, I've provided everything you need, 1083 01:20:11,080 --> 01:20:15,320 and we have put more trust in our systems than in our 1084 01:20:15,520 --> 01:20:23,560 packaging. And that's not what God meant 1085 01:20:23,560 --> 01:20:27,720 for his bride. Here we go. 1086 01:20:27,760 --> 01:20:28,800 You ready? You ready? 1087 01:20:29,040 --> 01:20:31,040 He said. Another follower said, Master, 1088 01:20:31,160 --> 01:20:32,840 excuse me for a couple of days, please. 1089 01:20:33,160 --> 01:20:35,520 Please. I have my father's funeral to 1090 01:20:35,520 --> 01:20:38,280 take care of. Look, let's look at what Jesus 1091 01:20:38,280 --> 01:20:39,720 said. Jesus refused. 1092 01:20:39,840 --> 01:20:41,960 First things first. Your business is life, not 1093 01:20:41,960 --> 01:20:42,880 death. Follow me. 1094 01:20:42,880 --> 01:20:48,080 Pursue life. No, no, no, no don't look at 1095 01:20:48,440 --> 01:20:51,000 first of all this is Jesus you say saved you and you love Jesus 1096 01:20:51,000 --> 01:20:53,320 so much. If some of y'all like well if 1097 01:20:53,320 --> 01:20:55,120 that was me I wouldn't follow Jesus. 1098 01:20:55,160 --> 01:21:00,560 You're right. Jesus trying to prove a point 1099 01:21:00,560 --> 01:21:03,520 here. He is saying time is running 1100 01:21:03,520 --> 01:21:11,720 out, he's dead. You want to follow me or tend to 1101 01:21:11,720 --> 01:21:16,920 dead things. This is not Jesus heartless. 1102 01:21:18,040 --> 01:21:22,000 This is Jesus full of purpose and he understands there's going 1103 01:21:22,000 --> 01:21:26,960 to be a people who read this one day and he's hoping you 1104 01:21:26,960 --> 01:21:33,480 understand he's a movement. Look, look, look, the the man 1105 01:21:33,480 --> 01:21:38,240 asked what in particular Jesus said this is the rich ruler. 1106 01:21:38,240 --> 01:21:39,360 I'm going to give you another one, right? 1107 01:21:39,360 --> 01:21:42,240 Because in court you got to have a, you got to have evidence. 1108 01:21:43,720 --> 01:21:46,560 The the man asked what, what, what in particular? 1109 01:21:46,840 --> 01:21:50,600 Jesus said, right, don't murder because he's like, how could I 1110 01:21:50,600 --> 01:21:52,960 get this life? How could I get this life? 1111 01:21:53,080 --> 01:21:55,800 Jesus? How could I get this life? 1112 01:21:55,800 --> 01:21:59,320 He said, don't murder, don't commit adultery, don't steal, 1113 01:21:59,320 --> 01:22:03,240 don't lie, honor your father and mother and love your neighbor as 1114 01:22:03,240 --> 01:22:04,400 you do yourself. Now hold on. 1115 01:22:04,680 --> 01:22:08,000 Jesus is still in the Old Testament at this time, so he's 1116 01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:11,160 given him the law because Jesus is not in the New Testament yet, 1117 01:22:12,040 --> 01:22:18,360 because he hasn't died. He came to fulfill the old. 1118 01:22:19,280 --> 01:22:22,160 But I also know because Jesus is the old and the new. 1119 01:22:23,040 --> 01:22:25,120 What you don't see here don't turn, don't turn. 1120 01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:31,080 What you don't see here is Jesus knows he's. 1121 01:22:31,080 --> 01:22:35,120 Fulfilled all these watch this, the young man said. 1122 01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:37,040 I've done all that. What's left? 1123 01:22:38,280 --> 01:22:44,720 That he, Chaka Khan. OK, OK, the young man said. 1124 01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:45,880 I've done all that. What's left? 1125 01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:50,720 If you want to give it all you've got, Jesus replied. 1126 01:22:51,720 --> 01:22:53,040 Go sell your possessions. Here it is. 1127 01:22:53,120 --> 01:22:56,240 You ready? Jesus came back to him. 1128 01:22:56,240 --> 01:22:58,440 Because I know my Jesus, he said. 1129 01:22:58,440 --> 01:23:00,400 This is what you need to do. I know you've done all these 1130 01:23:00,400 --> 01:23:03,120 things, but what I'm trying to point to you is that after 1131 01:23:03,120 --> 01:23:05,680 you've done all the religious things, you're still not 1132 01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:10,080 satisfied. I need you to know that you 1133 01:23:10,080 --> 01:23:13,880 really are unsatisfied in life. After you go to work, after you 1134 01:23:13,880 --> 01:23:16,480 got all the friends, after you got married, you got all these 1135 01:23:16,480 --> 01:23:18,160 things. Bye, bye, bye bye bye. 1136 01:23:18,280 --> 01:23:21,280 You got integrity, You did the remnant project, you did the 1137 01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:23,280 victory. See blah blah blah blah blah. 1138 01:23:23,440 --> 01:23:25,400 And you're wondering why am I still unsatisfied? 1139 01:23:32,670 --> 01:23:35,470 So go sell your. Possessions give everything to 1140 01:23:35,470 --> 01:23:37,750 the poor. All your wealth will then be in 1141 01:23:37,750 --> 01:23:41,910 heaven. Then come follow me because I'm, 1142 01:23:41,950 --> 01:23:43,520 I'm on the move. Follow me. 1143 01:23:44,360 --> 01:23:45,560 We hear that all the time. Follow. 1144 01:23:45,560 --> 01:23:46,920 You can't follow nobody. That ain't moving. 1145 01:23:46,920 --> 01:23:52,120 That was the last thing the young man expected. 1146 01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:53,560 You ready? That was the last thing to hear. 1147 01:23:53,720 --> 01:23:55,720 Did 2025. That's the last thing you ready 1148 01:23:55,720 --> 01:23:58,240 to hear? Fear of God, Last thing you. 1149 01:23:58,400 --> 01:24:00,800 I got to give something else up. The last thing I got to I got to 1150 01:24:00,800 --> 01:24:02,120 move. I got to change my life. 1151 01:24:02,120 --> 01:24:05,240 I got to, I got to get adjusted to new things and new, new ways 1152 01:24:05,240 --> 01:24:10,800 of walking, he said. And so, crestfallen, he walked 1153 01:24:10,800 --> 01:24:16,800 away. He was holding on tight to a lot 1154 01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:18,520 of stuff. Remember March 4? 1155 01:24:18,520 --> 01:24:23,280 A lot of things and he couldn't bear. 1156 01:24:23,680 --> 01:24:34,350 To let go. Jesus is coming for his bride, 1157 01:24:40,480 --> 01:24:44,360 and as Jesus watched him go, he's told his disciples. 1158 01:24:45,520 --> 01:24:49,040 You have any idea how difficult it is for the rich to enter 1159 01:24:49,040 --> 01:24:50,560 God's Kingdom? I want to help you because you 1160 01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:52,280 like I'm not rich so he ain't talking to me. 1161 01:24:52,280 --> 01:24:54,720 No, you rich off of whatever you depend on. 1162 01:24:58,080 --> 01:25:02,240 Let me tell you, it's easier to gallop a camel through a 1163 01:25:02,240 --> 01:25:04,960 needle's eye and for the rich to enter his Kingdom. 1164 01:25:06,680 --> 01:25:10,760 Disciples were staggered. Then who has any chance at all? 1165 01:25:11,440 --> 01:25:14,680 Jesus looked hard at them and said no chance at all. 1166 01:25:14,920 --> 01:25:20,040 If you think you can pull it off yourself every chance in the 1167 01:25:20,040 --> 01:25:30,960 world, if you trust God to do it, God, oh, don't turn it, 1168 01:25:30,960 --> 01:25:32,680 don't turn it. This is a game changer. 1169 01:25:32,680 --> 01:25:35,400 This is a game changer. I'm about to help some people 1170 01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:40,200 right now. God provides in multiple ways. 1171 01:25:40,480 --> 01:25:46,360 Be careful. You ready? 1172 01:25:47,120 --> 01:25:53,560 God provides as a father and God provides as a king. 1173 01:25:58,360 --> 01:26:01,280 Here's the Father. And this is where provision 1174 01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:04,560 stops for us when all our needs are met. 1175 01:26:08,560 --> 01:26:13,520 The King provides Kingdom stuff. The Father provides your daily 1176 01:26:13,520 --> 01:26:18,840 needs. So you think I got to go do this 1177 01:26:18,840 --> 01:26:25,760 over here and God has signed off on this over here because I see 1178 01:26:25,760 --> 01:26:30,240 provision not knowing you still have this Kingdom call. 1179 01:26:31,000 --> 01:26:34,720 Do you know how many people who have had all their needs met and 1180 01:26:34,720 --> 01:26:38,000 left this world, not living in purpose, but merely working a 1181 01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:45,040 career that provided and we have minimized God's role as gyra? 1182 01:26:47,360 --> 01:26:50,560 He provides us a father, He's a good father and I'm telling you 1183 01:26:50,560 --> 01:26:53,080 are missing out if all you depend on him to do is provide 1184 01:26:53,080 --> 01:27:00,160 your needs. When you start living off king 1185 01:27:00,480 --> 01:27:07,720 provision, It's the way he says not everybody going to enter the 1186 01:27:07,720 --> 01:27:12,000 Kingdom. It means what a whole lot of 1187 01:27:12,000 --> 01:27:17,640 people going to be satisfied because your bills paid, your 1188 01:27:17,640 --> 01:27:20,840 lifestyle is provided for. And you think? 1189 01:27:20,840 --> 01:27:25,040 Because lifestyle is provided for then purpose is accomplished 1190 01:27:25,080 --> 01:27:28,640 you. Want me to help you out? 1191 01:27:29,160 --> 01:27:39,030 Provision can be deceptive, and his wife says a rich man cannot. 1192 01:27:39,070 --> 01:27:42,670 It's hard for him to enter the Kingdom because his focus is on 1193 01:27:42,670 --> 01:27:47,160 his needs being met. I need this house, this car, my 1194 01:27:47,160 --> 01:27:50,520 family, my food. I want to travel. 1195 01:27:50,600 --> 01:27:53,960 I want to do all these things. And God said absolutely work, 1196 01:27:54,400 --> 01:27:57,760 I'll bless your work. I hear you got to hear me. 1197 01:27:57,760 --> 01:28:01,160 I'll bless your work. He reigns on the just and the 1198 01:28:01,160 --> 01:28:03,000 unjust. Work is a principle. 1199 01:28:05,720 --> 01:28:08,440 Work is a principle. You work, you eat. 1200 01:28:10,160 --> 01:28:15,400 You keep working, you might eat more, but living off the 1201 01:28:15,400 --> 01:28:22,680 kingdom's system is an absolutely different experience. 1202 01:28:25,120 --> 01:28:27,240 You don't work as much as you sow. 1203 01:28:32,780 --> 01:28:34,260 I know y'all want to go. Me too. 1204 01:28:39,470 --> 01:28:41,270 The bride must stay ready to move. 1205 01:28:45,430 --> 01:28:47,550 The bride must stay ready to move. 1206 01:28:52,960 --> 01:28:54,840 You ever find somebody that's moving so much you like? 1207 01:28:54,840 --> 01:28:59,040 Can you please stay still? Why are you moving so much? 1208 01:29:08,730 --> 01:29:10,850 I don't have to read this to you, but I just want to show it 1209 01:29:10,850 --> 01:29:13,530 to you. Jesus is walking along the 1210 01:29:13,530 --> 01:29:15,930 beach. He sees some men faithful in 1211 01:29:15,930 --> 01:29:18,250 their career. And what did he say? 1212 01:29:18,610 --> 01:29:20,890 Drop your pose. Follow me. 1213 01:29:21,010 --> 01:29:22,970 What did they do? They dropped them and was ready 1214 01:29:22,970 --> 01:29:25,290 to move. Like you are. 1215 01:29:25,650 --> 01:29:30,200 Who's like ready for that? Like This is why you some of 1216 01:29:30,200 --> 01:29:32,680 y'all like God won't man, that's blessing for you. 1217 01:29:32,880 --> 01:29:35,800 Sometimes you haven't experienced God coming for 1218 01:29:35,800 --> 01:29:39,280 something because he already know he got to fight for it. 1219 01:29:40,880 --> 01:29:43,040 So God ain't going to ask you to leave your job. 1220 01:29:43,320 --> 01:29:47,120 You wouldn't he got to beg you. You need signs he like just work 1221 01:29:47,120 --> 01:29:52,640 your career. God's not some of you won't ever 1222 01:29:52,640 --> 01:29:56,440 walk in that kind of walk with God because he already knows 1223 01:29:56,440 --> 01:29:59,520 you're not. You haven't created the soil for 1224 01:29:59,520 --> 01:30:02,920 him to say, hey, I know you're out there providing for your 1225 01:30:02,920 --> 01:30:05,400 family. Follow me. 1226 01:30:05,520 --> 01:30:07,520 I'll still provide for your family. 1227 01:30:08,360 --> 01:30:10,320 Just follow me.

I I actually want you to walk 1276 01:33:42,480 --> 01:33:44,240 through the fears and the uncertainty. 1277 01:33:44,240 --> 01:33:46,680 Is this this going close? Is this am I going to die? 1278 01:33:46,760 --> 01:33:49,760 I want you to walk through it and you going to get to the 1279 01:33:49,760 --> 01:33:52,760 other side. I'm talking about we're about to 1280 01:33:52,760 --> 01:33:54,600 enter that time where God's going to do some stuff in your 1281 01:33:54,600 --> 01:33:56,360 life that you have not seen or heard. 1282 01:33:57,200 --> 01:34:00,400 Do you think that that Moses thought that the when Moses was 1283 01:34:00,400 --> 01:34:04,480 sitting there with his people, they only saw the the sea and 1284 01:34:04,480 --> 01:34:09,040 they saw the enemy coming? They could have never imagined 1285 01:34:09,160 --> 01:34:12,960 that God was about to actually split the sea and they was going 1286 01:34:12,960 --> 01:34:18,640 to walk right through it. I don't know about you, but 1287 01:34:18,640 --> 01:34:20,160 that's the stuff I came to Canada for. 1288 01:34:20,160 --> 01:34:21,760 I didn't come here for no regular church. 1289 01:34:21,760 --> 01:34:24,000 I didn't come here for Sunday. You kidding me? 1290 01:34:25,880 --> 01:34:30,280 I didn't come here for normal said. 1291 01:34:30,280 --> 01:34:34,000 I'm doing something brand new. I'm doing something brand new. 1292 01:34:35,760 --> 01:34:38,640 Say don't remember the former things, they too small, they 1293 01:34:38,640 --> 01:34:41,040 passed. And I'm talking about God's 1294 01:34:41,040 --> 01:34:44,080 moving so, so fast that the former could be what he did 1295 01:34:44,080 --> 01:34:49,360 yesterday. Even now it's sprouts. 1296 01:34:49,360 --> 01:34:51,160 Even now it's sprouts and grows and matures. 1297 01:34:51,160 --> 01:34:53,480 Here it is. Don't you perceive it a 1298 01:34:53,480 --> 01:34:55,400 perception issue? I'm blessing you. 1299 01:34:55,400 --> 01:34:58,120 You don't even see it. I will make a way in the 1300 01:34:58,120 --> 01:35:01,080 wilderness and open first, Peter says. 1301 01:35:01,280 --> 01:35:04,520 But you are God's chosen treasure priests who are. 1302 01:35:04,520 --> 01:35:08,560 Kings. Spiritual nation set apart as 1303 01:35:08,560 --> 01:35:12,760 God's devoted ones. He called you out of darkness to 1304 01:35:12,760 --> 01:35:16,760 experience His marvelous light, and now He claims you as His 1305 01:35:16,760 --> 01:35:19,760 very own. He did this so that you would 1306 01:35:19,760 --> 01:35:23,640 broadcast His glorious wonders throughout the world. 1307 01:35:24,680 --> 01:35:26,600 For at one time, this is the part that blessed. 1308 01:35:26,600 --> 01:35:30,840 This is why God can have me. However, for at one time you 1309 01:35:30,840 --> 01:35:35,480 were not God's people, but now you are. 1310 01:35:36,440 --> 01:35:41,520 At one time you knew nothing of God's mercy because you hadn't 1311 01:35:41,520 --> 01:35:45,760 received it yet, but now you're drenched in mercy. 1312 01:35:47,560 --> 01:35:51,640 Here it is, Here it is, here it is. 1313 01:35:54,520 --> 01:35:58,280 Procure Your people do peculiar things. 1314 01:36:04,360 --> 01:36:07,040 I'm just different. So what? 1315 01:36:08,040 --> 01:36:12,640 Peculiar people? No, no, God called me peculiar, 1316 01:36:16,520 --> 01:36:17,520 see. And what I love about. 1317 01:36:17,520 --> 01:36:19,800 This church, we could be peculiar and not weird. 1318 01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:24,680 He didn't. He didn't call us weird. 1319 01:36:24,960 --> 01:36:28,880 And some people are afraid of being peculiar because peculiar 1320 01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:38,960 has been perverted to be weird. You can't package me, man. 1321 01:36:39,040 --> 01:36:42,160 You can't. You can't procure your people do 1322 01:36:42,160 --> 01:36:45,560 procure your things. John 13 Here it is. 1323 01:36:45,560 --> 01:36:48,240 Jesus said to him, You do. You do not understand. 1324 01:36:48,600 --> 01:36:51,040 Now, the reason I'm finishing this tonight is because I'm 1325 01:36:51,040 --> 01:36:52,720 about to tell you something peculiar. 1326 01:36:55,560 --> 01:36:59,280 Jesus said to him, You do not. Understand now what I am doing. 1327 01:37:04,280 --> 01:37:07,840 You, you stop trying to understand everything, he said. 1328 01:37:07,840 --> 01:37:10,360 You don't understand what I'm doing, but you will understand 1329 01:37:10,360 --> 01:37:12,840 it later. But guess what? 1330 01:37:12,840 --> 01:37:16,760 Some people never get to later because they're stuck at trying 1331 01:37:16,760 --> 01:37:25,760 to understood. I trust in God my Savior, the 1332 01:37:26,200 --> 01:37:27,760 one. How many? 1333 01:37:28,200 --> 01:37:33,240 Who will never How many people sing that? 1334 01:37:34,120 --> 01:37:35,280 Stop. Do you really? 1335 01:37:39,440 --> 01:37:41,120 Oh, it's easy to trust them when you understand. 1336 01:37:43,440 --> 01:37:45,560 It's easy to trust them when you got everything going your way 1337 01:37:45,560 --> 01:37:48,480 when it's comfy. It's easy to trust them when you 1338 01:37:48,480 --> 01:37:49,880 can see the light at the end of the tunnel. 1339 01:37:54,800 --> 01:38:04,680 Can you trust them in the fall? With John tried to prevent him 1340 01:38:04,680 --> 01:38:06,080 vigorously. I'm just trying to show you all 1341 01:38:06,080 --> 01:38:08,480 a few things so you could blame it on Jesus, not me. 1342 01:38:10,280 --> 01:38:13,560 It is it is it is I who need to be baptized. 1343 01:38:13,560 --> 01:38:17,280 John's over here like Jesus. No, I'm not baptizing you. 1344 01:38:17,280 --> 01:38:20,120 You crazy that don't even sound right. 1345 01:38:20,120 --> 01:38:23,200 You to save your other world and you asking me to baptize you. 1346 01:38:23,480 --> 01:38:24,360 You. You see this. 1347 01:38:24,440 --> 01:38:26,440 You see this? See this, You. 1348 01:38:26,480 --> 01:38:28,160 You. Can't walk in the peculiar and 1349 01:38:28,160 --> 01:38:33,160 understand everything. But Jesus replied, permit it 1350 01:38:33,160 --> 01:38:38,800 just now, for this is the fitting way for us to fulfill. 1351 01:38:38,800 --> 01:38:41,320 All right, So So what if God says in this season, it's 1352 01:38:41,360 --> 01:38:45,960 peculiar, it may be weird, but it's it, it's it it, it's the 1353 01:38:45,960 --> 01:38:50,920 fitting way. It may not be your preferred 1354 01:38:50,920 --> 01:38:57,480 way, but it's God's fitting way. Kingdom movement must be managed 1355 01:38:57,480 --> 01:39:01,880 by man walking with man led by and man knowing the Holy Spirit. 1356 01:39:02,040 --> 01:39:03,520 Kingdom movement. Kingdom movement. 1357 01:39:03,760 --> 01:39:05,400 Not man movement. Kingdom movement. 1358 01:39:06,000 --> 01:39:10,040 OK. I still here it is. 1359 01:39:10,040 --> 01:39:13,240 Let me give you one more. I still have many things to tell 1360 01:39:13,240 --> 01:39:19,760 you, but you're not able. You don't have the capacity. 1361 01:39:23,360 --> 01:39:25,240 To take them up on you, you mean? 1362 01:39:25,240 --> 01:39:28,440 There's things that God wants to share with you, but you don't 1363 01:39:28,440 --> 01:39:30,000 have the shoulders yet to handle it. 1364 01:39:31,600 --> 01:39:39,240 He don't want to argue with you. We can't afford to do any part 1365 01:39:39,240 --> 01:39:47,800 of this on our own. Five things we must fight for. 1366 01:39:49,120 --> 01:39:53,480 We must fight to keep the sentness of the bride. 1367 01:39:55,240 --> 01:39:57,320 That's what I'm going to do. And I believe God sent his 1368 01:39:57,320 --> 01:40:00,400 giving, giving me, giving a few. There's going to be a time where 1369 01:40:00,400 --> 01:40:03,560 we can just kind of not chill out, but there's going to be, 1370 01:40:03,560 --> 01:40:04,920 there's going to be a season for some of you. 1371 01:40:04,920 --> 01:40:07,440 I'm just, I'm going to be a little human for you because 1372 01:40:07,440 --> 01:40:09,760 then it's going to be a time where we can just kind of level 1373 01:40:09,760 --> 01:40:12,400 out and just do human things that fit your, your time. 1374 01:40:12,400 --> 01:40:13,800 You schedule all all those things, right? 1375 01:40:13,960 --> 01:40:16,360 But there's a time when God, there's a season where he's 1376 01:40:16,360 --> 01:40:22,000 trying to untie things. So he needs to find a people 1377 01:40:22,240 --> 01:40:24,360 that is that that can easily pivot. 1378 01:40:25,560 --> 01:40:27,920 All right, keep the sentence, keep the movement. 1379 01:40:27,920 --> 01:40:30,400 We must fight to keep the movement of the bride. 1380 01:40:32,320 --> 01:40:36,440 So #1 keep the sentence of the bride #2 keep the movement of 1381 01:40:36,440 --> 01:40:40,080 the bride #3 keep the vulnerability of the bride. 1382 01:40:42,760 --> 01:40:43,840 I had an impossible on the phone. 1383 01:40:43,840 --> 01:40:45,080 Another day I met for the first time. 1384 01:40:45,080 --> 01:40:47,240 He absolutely blessed me. Hopefully one day you will meet 1385 01:40:47,240 --> 01:40:48,600 him. He asked me a question I've 1386 01:40:48,600 --> 01:40:49,640 never been asked. He says. 1387 01:40:49,640 --> 01:40:51,720 How does your church practice vulnerability? 1388 01:40:54,400 --> 01:40:56,640 He he, he broke something off to me that I didn't. 1389 01:40:56,640 --> 01:40:59,480 Understand about myself. I I I didn't understand this 1390 01:40:59,480 --> 01:41:01,360 about myself. Why? 1391 01:41:01,360 --> 01:41:02,280 Why? Why my life? 1392 01:41:02,280 --> 01:41:04,400 Is on this platform. Why? 1393 01:41:04,400 --> 01:41:07,280 Why sometime my wife is like, no don't share that part of our 1394 01:41:07,280 --> 01:41:11,080 life. Why I bring my kids into it. 1395 01:41:15,120 --> 01:41:17,520 All, I'm going to put it this way, when you see in any 1396 01:41:17,520 --> 01:41:21,480 apostles in the Bible, when you see Paul's letters, you can't 1397 01:41:21,480 --> 01:41:23,400 lead. There's a certain gift that you 1398 01:41:23,400 --> 01:41:28,320 can't lead without your life. This is what Paul says, follow 1399 01:41:28,320 --> 01:41:33,400 me. There's no part of my life. 1400 01:41:34,320 --> 01:41:41,280 That can be hidden. So I share my my my my 1401 01:41:41,280 --> 01:41:43,880 frustrations. I It might seem So what I got to 1402 01:41:43,880 --> 01:41:46,640 learn how to do under the poverty anointing is I need to 1403 01:41:46,640 --> 01:41:50,280 know how to manage my emotions because I'm willing to spill it 1404 01:41:50,280 --> 01:41:54,920 out in front of you. But based on the gift of my 1405 01:41:54,920 --> 01:41:58,160 life, my. Life I I and This is why some of 1406 01:41:58,160 --> 01:42:00,480 you, if I, if I mess up something, I'm OK to say I 1407 01:42:00,480 --> 01:42:02,160 apologize. I'm working on myself. 1408 01:42:03,320 --> 01:42:07,680 I'm OK to live in front of you. Paul says, man, I'm in prison. 1409 01:42:07,680 --> 01:42:10,520 I'm broken, I've been crushed, I've been bruised, I've been 1410 01:42:10,520 --> 01:42:12,200 burdened. But I'm encouraging you. 1411 01:42:12,440 --> 01:42:16,400 I'm sharing my humanity, but I'm encouraging you from divinity. 1412 01:42:26,860 --> 01:42:31,340 So God will put people in the earth who he's anointed to live 1413 01:42:31,780 --> 01:42:35,620 as a model citizen of the Kingdom and dares people to 1414 01:42:35,620 --> 01:42:38,760 follow their life. And not everybody want to be 1415 01:42:38,760 --> 01:42:40,680 followed. They want to be a hidden 1416 01:42:40,680 --> 01:42:45,720 Christian, play it safe and ride on King Jesus. 1417 01:42:51,420 --> 01:42:59,380 The real church says I'll be persecuted publicly, so you can 1418 01:42:59,380 --> 01:43:04,660 see how I handle the stones. That's the real church. 1419 01:43:09,240 --> 01:43:16,400 Keep the urgency of the bride #4 and lastly or two more, keep the 1420 01:43:16,400 --> 01:43:21,720 agility of the bride. Is that 5 keep the agility of 1421 01:43:21,720 --> 01:43:23,520 the bride. So keep the urgency of the 1422 01:43:23,520 --> 01:43:25,360 bride. We have to fight in this church 1423 01:43:25,360 --> 01:43:26,800 to keep the urgency of the bride. 1424 01:43:28,280 --> 01:43:35,080 Keep the agility of the bride. That's six, that's five. 1425 01:43:35,280 --> 01:43:35,960 That's all. There's no. 1426 01:43:41,600 --> 01:43:47,720 The church has to be less fragile and more agile. 1427 01:43:51,760 --> 01:43:59,320 Tomorrow we'll pick up at Luke 14, where it talks about when 1428 01:43:59,400 --> 01:44:02,480 Jesus calls people to his house because he says dinner is ready 1429 01:44:02,480 --> 01:44:06,600 to be served and all the excuses start coming. 1430 01:44:06,600 --> 01:44:11,360 Why you ready? Because dinner wasn't on Sunday. 1431 01:44:14,120 --> 01:44:21,520 Move this out of my way, please. I'm about to tell you a few 1432 01:44:21,520 --> 01:44:36,320 things. Now I will be be be transparent 1433 01:44:36,320 --> 01:44:44,920 to tell you that I'm working out some of the details but. 1434 01:44:46,680 --> 01:44:49,840 As I was in conversation with one of our leaders yesterday and 1435 01:44:49,840 --> 01:44:53,200 I'm just like, how do we, you know, she's frustrated, I'm 1436 01:44:53,200 --> 01:44:55,280 frustrated and I'm, I'm living in attention. 1437 01:44:55,280 --> 01:45:02,000 I'm like 100%. I agree with you, where I push 1438 01:45:02,000 --> 01:45:05,840 back is not in what is irritating you because God puts. 1439 01:45:05,840 --> 01:45:09,720 You in you. In my life to to have irritation 1440 01:45:10,160 --> 01:45:15,000 and that irritation is going to point out some purpose. 1441 01:45:16,640 --> 01:45:24,000 So learning how to embrace irritation that will point out 1442 01:45:24,000 --> 01:45:29,200 identity and call. So I'm like, I've been 1443 01:45:29,200 --> 01:45:32,800 frustrated with you and there's some areas I could take some 1444 01:45:32,800 --> 01:45:39,120 responsibility, but this is way deeper than an administrative. 1445 01:45:39,120 --> 01:45:43,560 Issue. This is a church issue. 1446 01:45:44,640 --> 01:45:48,480 And so then to to hear God, for what love? 1447 01:45:48,480 --> 01:45:54,280 Quest needs to do. I got to go a little deeper. 1448 01:45:56,120 --> 01:46:00,960 And I think I asked you, I said to to start off extreme, I was 1449 01:46:00,960 --> 01:46:04,680 like, there's just too much. You ask people to serve and it's 1450 01:46:04,680 --> 01:46:08,720 like, I can't people running people. 1451 01:46:08,720 --> 01:46:14,320 It is so much and for the the the the sheep at the sheep 1452 01:46:14,320 --> 01:46:16,960 level, all you see, all you feel is tired. 1453 01:46:16,960 --> 01:46:19,400 You don't know is 20. Other people got different 1454 01:46:19,400 --> 01:46:20,880 struggles, but there's one attack. 1455 01:46:23,200 --> 01:46:26,320 I'm like, God, what is going on? I'm like, I'm like, I'm like 1456 01:46:26,320 --> 01:46:28,520 leader, leader number one. I don't want to tell you who I 1457 01:46:28,520 --> 01:46:33,040 was talking to, male or female. It's just like, look what I feel 1458 01:46:33,040 --> 01:46:35,040 in my spirit. And I was fighting tears back. 1459 01:46:35,040 --> 01:46:37,960 I knew the Lord was talking. I'm like, I just want to shut 1460 01:46:37,960 --> 01:46:42,040 everything down. Because what came up is we've 1461 01:46:42,040 --> 01:46:48,800 made church about task and a lot of the commotion, this 1462 01:46:48,800 --> 01:46:52,880 administrative stuff, this, we're worried about producing a 1463 01:46:52,880 --> 01:46:59,720 product, not a House of prayer. When when's the last time we 1464 01:46:59,720 --> 01:47:02,240 called each other fighting over when next time we're going to 1465 01:47:02,240 --> 01:47:04,520 have prayer? How are we going to figure out 1466 01:47:04,600 --> 01:47:07,680 how we let's fast and pray to, to see how many more people we 1467 01:47:07,680 --> 01:47:12,440 can get the fast and pray. It's man, It's how many people 1468 01:47:12,440 --> 01:47:14,960 we got to serve. Can we beg people to serve in 1469 01:47:14,960 --> 01:47:17,240 children's church? Can we beg people to do this? 1470 01:47:17,440 --> 01:47:21,840 How many people like it's like that's not what God's church is 1471 01:47:21,840 --> 01:47:27,600 supposed to be worried about. So then we're marketing and 1472 01:47:27,600 --> 01:47:30,280 we're church planting and we're not really church planting. 1473 01:47:30,280 --> 01:47:34,520 We're trying to have church growth and we're just trying to, 1474 01:47:34,680 --> 01:47:37,120 it's just this thing and how can we get people in on Sunday? 1475 01:47:37,120 --> 01:47:40,200 Should we do night service one service 2 service 3 service 4 1476 01:47:40,200 --> 01:47:42,440 service Wednesday service 5 services? 1477 01:47:42,560 --> 01:47:45,120 We trying to do all these different things streaming. 1478 01:47:45,120 --> 01:47:46,800 Let's turn our stream up.

God plucked me out of 1610 01:56:01,080 --> 01:56:05,240 California. My ministry in Canada started on 1611 01:56:05,240 --> 01:56:06,480 the move. You think I'm going to stop 1612 01:56:06,480 --> 01:56:14,170 moving? What do you want? 1613 01:56:15,410 --> 01:56:16,930 What do you? What do we want? 1614 01:56:18,690 --> 01:56:23,570 His ministry is not about you. It's not about what God we don't 1615 01:56:23,570 --> 01:56:28,160 give so God can do. We give because he's done. 1616 01:56:30,520 --> 01:56:33,440 We don't come and serve because we fighting for breakthrough 1617 01:56:35,280 --> 01:56:39,680 like breakthrough is in here. Breakthrough is not a not a 1618 01:56:39,880 --> 01:56:43,720 breakthrough is not God's response to obedience. 1619 01:56:46,600 --> 01:56:48,640 It's not a response to your doing. 1620 01:56:49,640 --> 01:56:54,600 Where's the bride that just loves her husband, that just 1621 01:56:54,600 --> 01:56:58,920 wants Jesus? Where's the bride that carries a 1622 01:56:58,920 --> 01:57:04,360 cross? This fragile excuse making, 1623 01:57:04,360 --> 01:57:11,600 timid coward church. And if you taking it personal 1624 01:57:11,800 --> 01:57:14,680 that is not me. That is the Holy Ghost trying to 1625 01:57:14,680 --> 01:57:20,120 get you past the church. Forget the world dying. 1626 01:57:20,360 --> 01:57:26,800 The church is dying. Judgment starts in the temple. 1627 01:57:30,000 --> 01:57:33,640 Before Jesus could die for the world, he had to go turntables 1628 01:57:33,640 --> 01:57:39,720 over in the temple. This can't be no house. 1629 01:57:39,720 --> 01:57:45,000 A miracle with weak believers. We're not willing. 1630 01:57:45,360 --> 01:57:47,480 When you want to see somebody heal, but you're not willing to 1631 01:57:47,480 --> 01:57:50,760 pay the price for them to be healed, they don't have faith. 1632 01:57:51,000 --> 01:57:55,280 You do. They don't got the word, you do. 1633 01:57:56,160 --> 01:57:58,320 They don't have understanding, you do. 1634 01:57:59,720 --> 01:58:02,480 This is not their church home, it's yours. 1635 01:58:07,200 --> 01:58:15,680 Jesus took his strength. He gave us his strength and took 1636 01:58:15,680 --> 01:58:21,320 our weakness. I don't know about you guys. 1637 01:58:26,280 --> 01:58:27,440 I just want more. I'm not. 1638 01:58:27,440 --> 01:58:31,400 It's not like isn't, it's just not just this religious routine 1639 01:58:31,400 --> 01:58:39,080 thing for me. I can understand that there's an 1640 01:58:39,080 --> 01:58:44,680 end to my life one day. I can't play. 1641 01:58:45,040 --> 01:58:46,760 I've spent too much time playing. 1642 01:58:47,640 --> 01:58:51,320 I spent too much time making excuses like I have the 1643 01:58:51,320 --> 01:58:54,960 privilege to serve God's church. Let me help some of y'all. 1644 01:58:54,960 --> 01:58:57,840 It's a privilege. You got a spot in God's house. 1645 01:59:01,960 --> 01:59:05,920 So during this time. I will be praying the church 1646 01:59:05,920 --> 01:59:07,840 will be. Praying and we going to come out 1647 01:59:07,840 --> 01:59:18,120 with systems and personnel and that can support the gift on 1648 01:59:18,120 --> 01:59:25,880 this house. It's not any church. 1649 01:59:27,200 --> 01:59:30,880 It's not any leaders. Look at, look at how we're 1650 01:59:30,880 --> 01:59:36,600 starting. We're peculiar. 1651 01:59:46,890 --> 01:59:52,570 Some mistake, my passion for and now you can't even see somebody 1652 01:59:53,050 --> 01:59:57,010 who will spend 3 hours with you, talking to you as love. 1653 02:00:00,000 --> 02:00:01,720 Let me tell you this, This is not my dream. 1654 02:00:03,360 --> 02:00:07,920 It's God's dream. My family is visiting. 1655 02:00:09,040 --> 02:00:10,880 This is a good time. I could be sitting at the home 1656 02:00:10,880 --> 02:00:13,040 cuddling with my wife, watching a movie. 1657 02:00:15,960 --> 02:00:21,200 I'm hungry. My son asked me a couple times a 1658 02:00:21,200 --> 02:00:21,760 day. You sure? 1659 02:00:21,760 --> 02:00:26,800 You ain't want nothing to eat. I was like son I do but I want 1660 02:00:26,800 --> 02:00:36,000 results more. I'm hungry, but I find my Jesus 1661 02:00:36,000 --> 02:00:41,480 said, yeah, y'all eat, but my nourishment comes from doing my 1662 02:00:41,480 --> 02:00:48,970 father's. They saw a Bible, so we're 1663 02:00:48,970 --> 02:01:00,570 working on some of the details. I said, Lord, any idols in our 1664 02:01:00,570 --> 02:01:05,730 church, you can have them. Sunday's an idol. 1665 02:01:08,040 --> 02:01:10,680 We look forward to Sunday. We dress our best on Sunday, we 1666 02:01:11,000 --> 02:01:15,400 we get prepared on Sunday. We give our best for Easter, we 1667 02:01:15,400 --> 02:01:19,920 give our best for Christmas and we've made holidays, we've made 1668 02:01:19,920 --> 02:01:25,640 Sundays and we've turned the church into an event packaged 1669 02:01:25,640 --> 02:01:28,360 it. Sundays is beautiful. 1670 02:01:31,760 --> 02:01:34,440 Then we look down on 7th day event is and people that have 1671 02:01:34,440 --> 02:01:36,600 church on Saturday be like that ain't the day you supposed to 1672 02:01:36,600 --> 02:01:43,640 have church and we'll look at people on the corner. 1673 02:01:43,640 --> 02:01:45,560 It's 5:00 PM. They'll go there on the corner 1674 02:01:45,560 --> 02:01:50,040 praying and we'll look at them and be like, I'm so glad that I 1675 02:01:50,040 --> 02:01:52,760 don't got to stop on the corner at 5:00 PM to pray. 1676 02:01:54,600 --> 02:02:01,040 But that's a movement. Wherever I'm at at 5 PMI believe 1677 02:02:02,720 --> 02:02:07,440 God got me at that time and we the church that we people that 1678 02:02:07,440 --> 02:02:10,000 think we found the way, the truth and the life. 1679 02:02:20,400 --> 02:02:25,960 Lastly, at the end of February, we're celebrating our 1680 02:02:25,960 --> 02:02:30,400 anniversary. Seven years now listen, listen, 1681 02:02:30,400 --> 02:02:35,120 listen, listen, listen. Seven years, seven years 7 is 1682 02:02:35,120 --> 02:02:40,640 completion. The prophet went through seven 1683 02:02:40,640 --> 02:02:48,640 brothers and he was finished with and he said God said ain't 1684 02:02:48,640 --> 02:02:58,480 none of those seven, my king. It was the eighth son David and 1685 02:02:58,480 --> 02:03:05,120 we call ourselves the Davidic house, 8th year, it's own. 1686 02:03:06,680 --> 02:03:11,920 We're not walking in over there in the eighth year just because 1687 02:03:11,920 --> 02:03:15,960 the building's ready. We're walking over there because 1688 02:03:15,960 --> 02:03:18,920 that's when God want to walk. That's that's when God is done 1689 02:03:18,920 --> 02:03:22,320 preparing us for there.

May our number one motive be to 1719 02:06:13,120 --> 02:06:23,090 please You.

The garage, like a garage, 1727 02:06:56,960 --> 02:07:00,680 represent what cars pull out of. Love Quest is about to pull out 1728 02:07:02,360 --> 02:07:10,640 and God is about to present us to a world, a move God, not just 1729 02:07:10,640 --> 02:07:14,000 Love Quest, but there's other churches like Good News Chapel. 1730 02:07:15,320 --> 02:07:21,120 There's many churches in the world that God has identified as 1731 02:07:21,160 --> 02:07:27,200 a remnant in the last days. I'm just happy we're one of 1732 02:07:27,200 --> 02:07:35,190 them. I'm happy. 1733 02:07:36,670 --> 02:07:45,440 I'm joyful. That you found a place that you 1734 02:07:45,440 --> 02:07:51,000 can call home. May your children, like Solomon 1735 02:07:52,480 --> 02:08:02,560 and like many others, keep this place as a dwelling place for 1736 02:08:02,560 --> 02:08:07,000 you, Lord. And I say to the church anywhere 1737 02:08:07,000 --> 02:08:13,040 in your heart where you just you just been comfortable, lukewarm, 1738 02:08:15,320 --> 02:08:19,360 you've been comfortable, complacent, you've been 1739 02:08:19,360 --> 02:08:24,000 comfortable. Some of you, man, I already know 1740 02:08:24,000 --> 02:08:24,840 it. I could see it. 1741 02:08:25,320 --> 02:08:27,920 Let me, let me put, let me, let me put this and you can keep 1742 02:08:27,920 --> 02:08:29,320 praying. I'm going to call it out. 1743 02:08:29,320 --> 02:08:31,360 And I'm not going to call your name out, but you know who you 1744 02:08:31,360 --> 02:08:34,560 are when I say this. You have been thinking about is 1745 02:08:34,560 --> 02:08:39,160 this your time to be done at Love Quest And I am here to 1746 02:08:39,160 --> 02:08:43,200 bless you. If you think it's your time, get 1747 02:08:43,200 --> 02:08:45,800 to where you think it's your time to be. 1748 02:08:47,160 --> 02:08:54,120 But one thing I warn you of is to make sure it's God moving you 1749 02:08:56,000 --> 02:09:02,800 and not you, because there's a lot of movements in the world 1750 02:09:03,560 --> 02:09:05,360 and not all of them are from God. 1751 02:09:07,760 --> 02:09:13,080 The church has never been about. Where I can find a place for me 1752 02:09:13,080 --> 02:09:19,040 to to for me to get my talents off, for me to go where I can be 1753 02:09:19,040 --> 02:09:28,280 best used be where in this hour might. 1754 02:09:28,280 --> 02:09:31,040 You be the elect. That's drawn away. 1755 02:09:35,120 --> 02:09:43,360 Your posture has changed because your heart is changing, your 1756 02:09:43,360 --> 02:09:48,120 relationships are changing, your perspective is changing. 1757 02:10:00,270 --> 02:10:07,390 But we say let God be God. 2025, The year of the fog. 1758 02:10:07,390 --> 02:10:11,510 The year of the fear of God. The year where his people draw 1759 02:10:11,550 --> 02:10:13,550 closer and draw nearer and go deeper. 1760 02:10:14,190 --> 02:10:15,910 The year where we walk with reverence. 1761 02:10:17,240 --> 02:10:24,160 The year where we stand in awe. The year where we stopped 1762 02:10:24,160 --> 02:10:27,600 playing church. The year we stopped making 1763 02:10:27,600 --> 02:10:35,600 church about us. The year we stopped being easily 1764 02:10:35,600 --> 02:10:40,040 offended. The year where the oath or the 1765 02:10:40,040 --> 02:10:58,680 orphan spirit has to go. So, Lord, we thank you for 1766 02:10:58,680 --> 02:11:04,320 loving us enough to send a word. We thank you that we have a 1767 02:11:04,320 --> 02:11:09,520 place we can have service for as long as we want, as many days as 1768 02:11:09,520 --> 02:11:11,400 we want. Thank you. 1769 02:11:21,440 --> 02:11:27,240 Thank you churches started upstairs at somebody else 1770 02:11:27,240 --> 02:11:30,040 building now has three. Thank you. 1771 02:11:31,800 --> 02:11:35,640 Thank you that you are mindful of us. 1772 02:11:36,280 --> 02:11:46,370 Clearly, as you assigned Solomon and David, you're assigning a 1773 02:11:46,370 --> 02:11:53,800 people to build you a house because our houses are nice. 1774 02:11:54,640 --> 02:11:57,720 We save money for our houses and we do a lot for our houses. 1775 02:11:57,720 --> 02:12:02,840 But God said, who is going to care to build me a house for all 1776 02:12:02,840 --> 02:12:16,610 my children to come home? So may we keep a heart with the 1777 02:12:16,610 --> 02:12:22,770 fruit of repentance, never forgetting where our help comes 1778 02:12:22,770 --> 02:12:25,560 from. And Lord, all you ask your 1779 02:12:25,560 --> 02:12:30,600 people in back in the day and still to today, I'm taking you 1780 02:12:30,600 --> 02:12:37,000 out of Egypt.
