Thanks for checking out the Anchor Faith Message podcast
from St. Augustine, FL.
Now enjoy this message. But the Lord just spoke to me
while I was on the platform. Didn't do this on Sunday,
remember? I administered a message called
capacity. Joshua Pennington spoke to me
about that. You know, it may be beyond your
experience, but it's not beyond your capacity.
And I ended up by the Holy Ghost mining out some very powerful
principles. Factually, it's the next book
we're going to be writing. But here's the what?
The Lord just spoke to me, he said.
Remember that I gave assignments to those who've abandoned
theirs. That did not do what I asked.
And then he just remind, he said in the last of the last days,
many, he said, some some will fall away from the faith and
because some will fall away from the faith, they'll get off.
In essence, they won't remain a branch.
Because of that God has to do reassignments.
And now I understand why the Lord is saying.
Son, there's some. Things you hadn't even planned
yet. You don't even know.
You don't even know it's because there's.
Assignments. That is somebody else's court
right now. But.
I know they're going to let go and if you'll keep listening,
then I'll hear you go. Because what I this prophecy?
What's so amazing? About this prophecy.
Is. It has nothing to do.
With me except. I am a branch in the tree, but
I'm a. Branch and there's not an.
Oak that has. 1 in fact. Oak trees, they grow, you know,
anywhere from 60 to 80 feet. They're not as big as redwoods,
but they're pretty. Amazing in statutes.
Still, but what's really amazing is they can grow twice as wide,
which if they're 80 feet, they could go out 160 feet, a branch
could go out, they could get go out so far that it hits the
ground and keeps going and hits some more.
Roots out there. And if you were here Sunday, you
know we have some Anchor Faith churches that that branch has
gone out still connected to Anchor Faith Church still
carries our vision but it created.
Roots in Valdosta. Created roots in Nicaragua,
creating roots in India. Going to create roots in the
Dominican Republic. And there's other places that
are starting to spring up. So in these last days should the
Lord? Come.
And he know, you know, he's coming.
Everything's accelerating. And since everything's
accelerating, he's going to all of a sudden say, OK with this
group because of the connection, the unity.
What's Pastor Marcy been ministering about?
Talking about unity, talking about being unified, talking
about coming as one. Because when you become one,
there isn't a we. We no longer look at our
differences. All we do is look at our
perspective of moving. Forward.
Goes again. We have individual assignments,
make no mistake about it. But we're a unit man.
I remember this. In the military, we're a unit.
You're a platoon. There may be a first, first
squad, leader, 2nd, 3rd, 4th. But at the end of the day, we
all have an assignment. We all have an objective.
We've got to get somewhere and we've got to be at a entrust one
another with our very lives, With our very lives.
And at the end, the Lord's coming back.
For what? The church.
The church without spot or wrinkle.
And the next great move is the church maturing, which means
then you getting in your place. Your assignment and the branches
are broad. What This thing blows my mind
after I listened to it a few times?
I'm like, what can't? I do.
Amen. Hallelujah.
Nowhere, did he say, well, you know, you can go here, here, but
there's going to be places you can't, which means things are
wide open this the best days are ahead.
The best days. Are ahead.
And you've heard me preach in the past this stuff like this.
Listen, God said he'll give exceedingly abundantly beyond
what you could think or imagine. And man.
I can imagine. Push your imagination.
Push it. Why?
The more you push it, the more God has to say.
How about this? Have you considered this?
You're like. Right, but most people can't
hardly live past their home address.
But not with us. With us.
We have learned how to get out in the community.
We've learned how to stretch ourselves beyond ourselves.
We've learned how to grow and and live life in other people's
lives effectively. But there's still so much to do
and there's so much you can do. There's more in us than what
we're currently doing. And God says, let me just
stretch you out a little bit further.
Let's, let's let you have a little bit further reach.
Let's let you go out a little bit more.
And again, if you were at the end of a branch, Bob, if you get
to the end of the branch and you're like, where's this from,
you're not guessing. All you got to do is start
tracing that thing back, because that branch is connected to the
trunk, and you'll find its source.
You'll know where it came from, You know what it's connected to,
You know what it's lifeline is, where it's bringing its source
from. I'm way out here, but being out
here me doesn't mean I'm disconnected.
It means I'm absolutely connected here, 'cause man, if
you're 160 feet out, you could be there and not even see the.
Trunk because. Of maybe all the other trees or
different things that surround. But if you're like, where's its
source? Where's its source?
If this. Produce some fruit.
It's gonna be still in the trunk.
And God's looking for a generation.
Of capable people. Of people who would dare to
believe, dare to go beyond themselves, dare to say here you
know, 'cause again, if you knew Jesus was coming back in the
next. Seven years.
I mean, you knew it without a doubt.
How would? You be living right now.
Why would we live differently if we assume it's gonna be after
our lifetime? So are we preparing a life?
Now and doing. Our own thought process now.
Good because God's got you in every sector society for a
reason, because it's our reach. For some of you business owners,
you've got more businesses, you're.
Fixing to launch, you didn't. Even know it because there's
wealth that has to be transferred.
Over. Yeah.
There's things we have to do in order to accomplish phenomenal.
Things. So it's not time to stop, it's
time to advance. Now let me just talk real quick
'cause we'll get. Back into this on Sunday.
If you've been here for a year. To us, you've been here for 20.
We don't look at you like you're new.
We look at you like you're. Necessary, but we've been
waiting on you. We're better because you're
here. So you know what?
There's nothing to prove here. We we knew.
We've always known based upon Jesus's.
Parable a a man master a man went out, had had a field he
needed to harvest and he said, hey, can y'all come work for me?
And they're like, yeah, we come work for you, I'll give you a
denarius, you come work. And they came in the first hour.
Then he went back in the third hour, went back in the sixth
hour, went back in the ninth hour, and then the. 11th hour,
Only one hour left to work. And he goes, what are you
standing around for now? The reason they're standing
around 'cause they're looking to get in the field, cause a
harvest doesn't come in in one day.
And he says, come on, work with me, I'll give you they.
Didn't even negotiate. And then the ones that were only
there for an hour, he said. Put them up front.
We've been. Waiting on you.
I mean, this isn't about time and Gray.
This is about. Obedience.
Now you understand I'm not going to put a novice in leadership.
Position. But you want.
But I'm. I'm just looking for people who
can. Obey and overcome.
If you can, obey and overcome as the test.
And trials come. Well, you, you're worth so much
for this vision because nobody in this place is in a union
position. Faithfulness is good, but at the
end of the day, assignments, assignment.
And if somebody comes in and we've been waiting 20 years to
do this assignment and you're the one, you're getting in it.
It's nothing personal. It doesn't mean that the people
who've been here for 20 years or less because they're not doing
what you're fixing to do, it just means they've been doing
their part and keep doing it, keep doing it, keep expanding,
keep helping. If you've been here for 10 years
or more or more, you need to rally the young ones.
You need to say man, you've come to the right place.
Wait till you see what we. Gonna do I'm.
Telling you right now I can testify some awesome.
Things. You should be excited when they
get on a mission trip. You should be excited when they
come to an anchor Faith lot glad you should be rallying.
Then when they go to try Ki all you Ki should just be like you
in the right place. You glad you here.
You need to sign up for this thing right here.
This is amazing, you alumni should say.
I heard you were going to go try Ki.
You need to go ahead and do it. Is it a Change Your Life rally?
Be a cheerleader. Be excited about what's
happening. Why?
Because God is rallying after you.
Because God never designed for his church to have a shelf life.
Never. In fact, God never designed that
when Paul planted a church. In Ephesus.
That it wouldn't be here today. But it's not.
We cannot go back and trace. The one he started.
God never intended that. So what's God looking for?
In these last days. As much as Paul and Peter and
all of them did, it's pretty amazing.
But we're here in the earth now, Perry.
We got work to do. We got work to do.
I mean, I don't care how long you been in Saint Augustine, you
here with us now. We got work to do.
There's things we've got to accomplish and we need that.
At the end of the day, we need to be inviting, challenging, and
then getting people to come and grow.
And it changed your life forever.
Change your life. Forever, right?
Change your life forever, my Mama.
Because I didn't. Do this.
The word did. The word did.
Anchor Fake Church is not a. Man, it's not a woman.
It was in the heart of God. Amen.
Anchor Fake Church. Is because of you.
Amen. So the question is, how hard are
you? Working in anchor.
Faith Church because for me. I'm going to eat, breathe.
And drink it, because I did it before I was paid anyway.
I've done it in seasons when they couldn't.
Pay. Because how do I separate myself
from me? And my destiny and my purpose.
I can always go make money, but can I go make God?
Come on. Come on.
I must. Be doing what God's called me to
do. Amen.
And the church is not the
pastor. It's all of us.
Amen. Hallelujah.
So good news. You came at the right time, I
said. You came at the right time.
You came at the right time.
I said you came at the right
time, man. You're rocking, bro.
We got things to do, man. Yeah, I mean, we got, We got.
Nations to change. Yeah, yeah, you joined at the
right time. You in the right fit.
Doing the right thing and we've. Just scratched the.
Surface of of how awesome you are we going to?
Cultivate it. Pull.
It out, man. We going to run with it.
It's going to be amazing. You make us better.
Hallelujah. Because.
There's nothing like. An oak when it has matured that
you just stand in awe. Cause an.
Oak's not. Impressive when?
All of its branches gone. But man, when they're out there,
you're like my Mama. Look at that.
And you know, it's just a butt God.
Hi, Linda. You don't want to miss Sunday,
all right? Let me close with this thought.
Pastor Brother Hagan said this in 1980.
I'm not even going to go to scripture tonight, OK?
Y'all all right with that. All right.
I'm just sharing from my heart because I'm going to do a review
Sunday anyway, so we're going to be all right.
But he talked about this mighty move in the last days, and I'm
just going to read one paragraph, one excerpt, he said.
And as and so in these last days there shall come a mighty
manifestation of the Spirit. The work that God intended
should be done in these last days shall be accomplished.
For the time is short and things must be speeded up.
And you'll learn much faster spiritual things than those of
yesterday, yesteryear. And you'll develop much faster.
And it be said of some, they virtually matured overnight.
That's why I got my eye on you, Isaac.
Yeah, overnight. Overnight, the things that you
can grow into overnight and I'm excited about that.
So again. Don't.
Ever take a thought because? People are in.
Positions that you don't have one.
I have depth. Yes, I do not have one drummer
that's good. You may see Chris most of the
time, but he is not the only drummer I do.
I have other guitar players, I have other singers.
I have other people in children's ministry.
We have depth. I do.
I am never. Satisfied with one person in
one. Position like you produce
somebody else. Don't ever think well, so and so
is doing that. I could.
That's a lie. Don't let the devil tell you a
lie. You jump right in there.
Your gift's going to make room for you.
I mean, we'll be 5 deep. That's what championships teams
look like. They're 5 deep.
They're like the bitch just came in and slaughtered.
You understand? I mean, their fifth string is
better than our first string. You hear what I'm saying?
I mean, you're the best on the. You are the best of the best.
I'm looking at the best of the best.
I mean, how can anybody be better than you?
You're in Christ. You're in Christ.
Ain't nobody better than you. Ain't nobody better than you.
Come on, girl. Ain't nobody better than you.
And how famous are you, the king?
Knows. You, I said.
The King knows you. How could you be more famous?
How did you be more known when the creator of heaven and earth
knows your name, right? I mean people like.
So and so knows me. Jesus knows me.
He made you what they got on. Jesus, Oh my gosh, He goes on
and says this. And they'll go forth to speak in
the name of the Lord because they understood the principles
of faith, they'll understand the principles of the Kingdom, and
they'll understand the laws of God.
They'll operate and minister in that area.
And nothing will be hid from them.
That is Anchor Faith Church. I have slid into the prophecy
that Brother Hagan had. I'm a Raima graduate.
I have understood faith, the principles of faith, and I live
by faith. But I am growing in the
understanding of the principles of the Kingdom, and this church
will always preach that because we'll be ready for the king.
I said we'll be ready for the king and we'll do phenomenal
things. I said we'll do phenomenal
things. Hallelujah.
Amen. Because.
If you get a group of people, it's not how many, it's the.
Quality of that group. You get them to come.
Together to where they have denied themselves and they are
just doing their fit. You are the.
Unstoppable force. And that's what the death,
burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ does for a person makes
them unstoppable when they yield to the Lordship of Jesus and
only follow His voice and His word.
And that's who we are as a church.
We have just begun. The cool thing is, since the
foundation is laid, when the foundation is done, the building
goes up fast, so it's time for the exponential.
So you might as well expect it and go ahead and sit close
because the overflow room is going to be being maxed out.
That's why we've got to give towards JC Penney and get that
thing changed where I'm not calling it JC Penney anymore.
I'm calling it the Sanctuary. Are you hearing me?
We going to be in service on May 5th in JC Penney.
I got to keep y'all in this space.
It looks too clean in here all. Right.
Let's clean up. Don't clean it up.
I want it to look like garbage. I want it to be junkie.
I want people to be inspired, to want to get in there, See
something. I'm going to put you in the
sanctuary where it's going to be, what it's going to look
like, you know, space wise, not what it's going to look like.
Because y'all haven't given that much.
All right, Hallelujah. Praise the Lord.
Amen. Whatever.
Head bow and every eye closed. No one's looking around.
If you're here today and you've never made Jesus the Lord of
your life, let me tell you what the Lord will do for you.
I don't care what mistakes you've made.
I don't care how old you are. There's a statement.
That is ran through leadership seminars galore and it is
there's something that you can never get back once you spend
it. It's called time.
Well. That may be true.
In the natural, but it's not true with the Lord, for it says
he even redeems the time when you come to the.
Lord, you don't have to have. Regret for wasted years because
the Lord can redeem the time. So you won't go back and look
and say, man, if I had, only you don't.
Have to. Have those statements.
Because the Lord says you don't have to wonder.
What if I would have known? You'd have known me back then.
You know me now. Follow me now.
I'll redeem the time and what you could have done back then if
you would have been obedient. I'll accelerate it to.
You now that's why the one who. Came and labored in the.
Last hour got the same wage because I give.
I reward you. Based upon your waiting, they
were in faith they would get in the field.
It just took him to the last hour to get there.
And if you'll believe God will redeem your time and everything
destined for you, He can still bring it to pass.
But you must get in His Kingdom in order.
