1
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:16,920
We're going to talk about the 
last three gifts of the Spirit 

2
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:21,000
and they are the the ones that 
say something, the the gifts of 

3
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:22,760
inspiration. 
OK. 

4
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:27,360
And that is prophecy, tongues 
and interpretation of tongues. 

5
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:33,160
But first I have to lay some 
foundation, do some explanation 

6
00:00:33,160 --> 00:00:38,680
and talk about a few things. 
So the my favorite thing that 

7
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,640
we've done, and I believe I've 
seen it already in the first 

8
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:46,320
week before we dive into this 
foundation, is that you came on 

9
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:51,080
that first Sunday and you 
grabbed hold of the hunger and 

10
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,960
the desire to for spiritual 
gifts. 

11
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,560
And I believe it's been a 
demonstration that that the move

12
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,800
of the Holy Ghost does not 
happen because of who's standing

13
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,760
here. 
The move of the Holy Ghost 

14
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,320
happens because of you. 
It happens because of your 

15
00:01:07,320 --> 00:01:09,760
expectation. 
It happens because of your 

16
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,160
hunger. 
It happens because of where 

17
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,520
you're at spiritually and you 
staying full of the Holy Ghost 

18
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:18,320
and the Word. 
And so that's key and that's 

19
00:01:18,320 --> 00:01:20,840
important. 
Remember that first Sunday we 

20
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:25,160
talked about earnestly desiring.
We talked about the difference. 

21
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,640
And when you get born again and 
you have a brand new spirit, the

22
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,520
Holy Ghost comes to live on the 
inside of you and you should be 

23
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:36,080
walking out those fruits of the 
Spirit and love. 

24
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,480
Notice love is the first one. 
Joy, peace, patience, and we 

25
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:44,240
could go on, but love is the 
foundation for all of these 

26
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:48,120
manifestations of the Spirit. 
We have to make sure that we're 

27
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,400
in love. 
But after you get baptized in 

28
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:55,400
the Holy Ghost, then you can 
operate in the 9 gifts of the 

29
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:57,720
Spirit that we're talking about 
this month. 

30
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,760
And so you have to have the 
baptism of the Holy Ghost so 

31
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,920
that you can put yourself in a 
position to say the Holy Ghost 

32
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,960
is upon me and it's for service 
and God. 

33
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,360
I earnestly desire spiritual 
gifts. 

34
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,760
And then pastor came in that 
second Sunday and he ministered 

35
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:18,360
on the power gifts, the gift of 
faith or special faith, which is

36
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:22,760
not, it is not your everyday, 
the just shall live by faith. 

37
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,440
It's not that that's an everyday
faith. 

38
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:30,960
This special faith is almost a, 
a resting faith, a supernatural 

39
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:35,000
power that comes on you to raise
the dead to do something 

40
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,360
supernatural. 
And he talked about that gift of

41
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,040
faith and manifestation, gifts 
of healings. 

42
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,200
He talked about that, you know, 
there's gifts of healings 

43
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,920
because there's it's plural, 
because there are multiple 

44
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,480
diseases and sicknesses. 
And and so sometimes there's 

45
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,880
needed a gift of healing that 
would speak right to that 

46
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,080
disease or right to that 
sickness and then a working of 

47
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,680
miracle. 
So miracle means, and he talked 

48
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,880
about this, something would have
to be created or something that 

49
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:10,440
wasn't there would have to come 
into play, for example, where it

50
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:15,560
kindle the flame this weekend. 
And Megan Barber, who, who works

51
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,880
in the medical field, was 
talking about this muscle in 

52
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:22,280
your wrist that not everybody 
has, OK. 

53
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:26,680
And she, we did this little test
and I have it and Coco has it, 

54
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,640
but Abby doesn't have it. 
And so we were kind of laughing 

55
00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:32,320
about that. 
And I said, I bet Pastor Mike 

56
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:36,000
doesn't have it either. 
So we came home and, and had him

57
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,120
do his little test and he's 
like, oh, he don't have it. 

58
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:43,040
So he's like, oh, I'll get it. 
I'll get that muscle. 

59
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,040
God gave me every muscle that 
I'm supposed to have. 

60
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,800
I'm going to get that muscle 
that would take a gift of the 

61
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,560
Spirit. 
It would take a gift of the 

62
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,200
Spirit and operation to create 
that muscle in him. 

63
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,400
And I don't think the Holy Ghost
needs to do that. 

64
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,160
So I had a private conversation 
with him about it. 

65
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,840
So anyway, that would be a gift 
to the Spirit. 

66
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:07,520
So we talked about those gifts 
and then last week we talked 

67
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:13,320
about the three that reveal and 
that that is a word of wisdom, a

68
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,800
word of knowledge and discerning
of spirits. 

69
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,200
And you know, a word of wisdom 
is something it's a plan of God.

70
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,360
It's something in the future 
that would be spoken by unction 

71
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,760
or supernatural gift of the 
spirit, a word of knowledge. 

72
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:32,160
Trenisha came up and gave a word
of knowledge, which was right 

73
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:36,600
now somebody has an enlarged 
heart and right now God wants to

74
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,480
heal you. 
That was a word of knowledge and

75
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,760
then discerning of spirits is 
that you can actually see into 

76
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,400
the spirit realm. 
And, and I just want to take a 

77
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,560
minute because I want you to 
understand how important these 

78
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,760
manifestations of the gifts are 
in the last days. 

79
00:04:53,920 --> 00:05:00,600
In Second Timothy chapter 3, it 
talks about a rise in the 

80
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:08,200
occult, a rise in sorcery, a 
rise in the demonic realm. 

81
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,200
And you need to be aware of 
that. 

82
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,280
You need to understand that. 
And that's why we as a church 

83
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:17,720
need to be on top of our game. 
That's why we need to be full of

84
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,760
the word and full of the Holy 
Ghost. 

85
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,160
But let's read Second Timothy 
chapter 3. 

86
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:27,560
It says, but know this, that in 
the last days perilous times 

87
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,600
will come. 
And that means trouble all 

88
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,480
around. 
It doesn't have to touch you, 

89
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,280
you don't have to fall into it. 
But troubled times are going to 

90
00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:37,840
be all around. 
For men will be lovers of 

91
00:05:37,840 --> 00:05:44,600
themselves, lovers of money, 
boasters, proud blasphemers, 

92
00:05:44,840 --> 00:05:51,200
disobedient to parents, 
unthankful, unholy, unloving, 

93
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:58,080
unforgiving, slanderous, without
self-control, brutal, despisers 

94
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:03,560
of good traitors, headstrong, 
haughty, lovers of pleasure 

95
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:09,200
rather than lovers of God. 
Verse 5 Having a form of 

96
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,240
godliness, but denying its 
power. 

97
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:17,200
And from such people turn away. 
For of this sort are those who 

98
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:21,360
creep into households and make 
captives of gullible women, and 

99
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:25,400
loaded down with sins, LED away 
by various lusts, always 

100
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,840
learning, but never able to come
to a knowledge of the truth. 

101
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,440
Let that never be us, Let that 
never be us. 

102
00:06:33,840 --> 00:06:40,920
Verse 8 Now as Jonas and Jombres
resisted Moses, so do these also

103
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:45,640
resist the truth. 
Men of corrupt minds disapproved

104
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,840
concerning the faith. 
Jonas and John Bruce were two 

105
00:06:48,840 --> 00:06:53,000
sorcerers in the Old Testament 
that opposed the ministry of 

106
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,760
Moses. 
And you know, Moses did signs 

107
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,880
and wonders and there were those
sorcerers right there to do a 

108
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:03,960
sign and a wonder. 
Next to him was this sign and 

109
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,400
wonder from God. 
It was demonic. 

110
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,720
And you need to understand that 
in the last days, these demonic 

111
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:15,200
powers in this demonic sorcery 
is going to be on the rise. 

112
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,920
I'm speaking to you for a 
purpose right now, and you need 

113
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,240
to not be ignorant. 
And the great thing about the 

114
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,360
Bible is, is that we don't have 
to be. 

115
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:28,120
And we can look at stuff and go,
Jesus told us this was going to 

116
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,280
happen. 
I don't have to be moved. 

117
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,680
I don't have to be scared. 
I don't have to worry about it. 

118
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,720
I don't have to be freaked out 
when something demonic takes 

119
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,440
place. 
I have authority like Pastor 

120
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,520
Mike talked about. 
We have authority. 

121
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,360
You have authority in the 
spirit. 

122
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,360
You have authority outside in 
your realm that you can take 

123
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,640
authority over things as you're 
LED. 

124
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:58,080
So it talks about these, that in
the last days it's going to be 

125
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,960
like these two sorcerers and 
these things are going to 

126
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,520
increase. 
If you look at verse 13 and 

127
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:08,760
Second Timothy, it says but evil
men and impostors or another 

128
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:15,400
translation says sorcerers will 
grow worse and worse, deceiving 

129
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,960
and being deceived. 
That word impostors means 

130
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:24,680
witchcraft. 
It means sorcery, it means 

131
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,800
magic. 
You think the devil's going to 

132
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,320
just going to show up in his 
little pitchfork and his horns 

133
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:34,760
and say, here I am. 
No, it doesn't work like that. 

134
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:42,400
He is slowly dumbing down our 
society through TV, through 

135
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,560
social media. 
If you just take a minute and 

136
00:08:45,560 --> 00:08:50,360
just watch a few kids cartoons 
on a Saturday morning or a 

137
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:54,480
weekday morning, you begin to 
see the the witchcraft and the 

138
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,680
sorcery that's in those. 
I'm not trying to be super 

139
00:08:57,680 --> 00:08:59,520
spiritual. 
I'm just trying to get you to 

140
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:03,000
wake up just a bit, just a 
little bit. 

141
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:07,640
So it means sorcery and magic 
and, and let me tell you 

142
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:12,280
something about this whole New 
Age movement and this sorcery. 

143
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,120
They're committed to the 
supernatural. 

144
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:21,960
They're committed to see magic 
and signs and wonders. 

145
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:27,080
They're committed to it more 
than the church is committed to 

146
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,000
the Word of God and the move of 
the Holy Ghost. 

147
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,880
And that should not be so in 
these last days when, when these

148
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:39,600
things are on the rise, if we 
don't get ourselves together and

149
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,040
understand the Word of God and 
be able to operate in these 

150
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,680
gifts of the Spirit, then we're 
going to be going. 

151
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,160
What's happening, what's going 
on? 

152
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:52,720
We should not be moved if 
somebody comes in here from 

153
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,640
that. 
We've had people in our church 

154
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,960
that have been delivered from 
the New Age movement and, and 

155
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,880
this whole new at Crystals, all 
of that stuff. 

156
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,080
That's a big deal right now. 
If you don't know, I'm telling 

157
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:09,680
you it's a big deal and people 
get delivered from that kind of 

158
00:10:09,680 --> 00:10:11,840
stuff. 
And what do you think it looks 

159
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,560
like when somebody gets 
delivered? 

160
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:19,600
You need to not be afraid and 
not be like, what's happening, 

161
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,520
what's going on? 
Because if we have the gifts of 

162
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:26,600
the Spirit operation, we're able
to discern there's still a demon

163
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:31,080
on that person. 
We need to get that demon off. 

164
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,680
We need to talk to that demon. 
So. 

165
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,800
So I'm going to show you just a 
couple of examples before we go 

166
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,600
into those last three of what it
looks like when demons are 

167
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:46,320
coming off of somebody so that 
you're not concerned if if they 

168
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,560
scream or if they shake or 
convulse, the scripture says 

169
00:10:50,560 --> 00:10:55,000
that's what happens. 
And so I just want to read a few

170
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,040
scriptures to you so that you 
understand. 

171
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,680
And let me just preface it this 
way. 

172
00:10:59,680 --> 00:11:03,960
A believer, a born again spirit 
filled person cannot be 

173
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:10,200
possessed by a demon, but they 
can be oppressed by a demon. 

174
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:16,040
And you need to understand that.
So, so a a spirit filled born 

175
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,960
again person could be in here 
could be having a form of 

176
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:26,000
godliness even and and there's 
still a demonic oppression on 

177
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,120
their life. 
And a gift of the Spirit can 

178
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:33,400
operate for for someone to be 
able to see into the Spirit and 

179
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:37,080
go, there's still a demon there.
Let's let's talk to that. 

180
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,480
Let's get that off. 
And so let's look at a couple of

181
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,560
examples of what that looks 
like. 

182
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,800
First Corinthians 11/13 Let me 
just read this to you. 

183
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:51,760
It says for such are false 
prophets, deceitful workers 

184
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,320
transforming themselves into 
apostles of Christ. 

185
00:11:55,600 --> 00:12:00,040
And no wonder, for Satan himself
transforms himself into an Angel

186
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,200
of light. 
So there's going to be people 

187
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:07,200
who are false apostles, 
deceitful workers, transforming 

188
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,320
themselves into apostles of 
Christ. 

189
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,320
And it says no wonder Satan 
himself transforms himself into 

190
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:17,160
an Angel of light. 
I just want to say this to you 

191
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,960
as a believer. 
If we can't take authority in 

192
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:29,560
our own mind, in our own life, 
in our own home with our 

193
00:12:29,560 --> 00:12:32,760
children, do you think you're 
going to be able to walk up in a

194
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:34,800
place and take authority over a 
devil? 

195
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:41,160
So I heard the O there. 
I, that was a spiritual spanking

196
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:45,120
or something. 
But we've got to take authority 

197
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:50,480
first here. 
Get victory first here take 

198
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,240
authority in our home first have
authority with our kids and 

199
00:12:54,240 --> 00:13:02,280
there's let me not go there, 
although I want to No, I won't 

200
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:07,360
parenting big deal. 
And and you need to make sure 

201
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:12,000
that you have authority in your 
home and not be like Eli in the 

202
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,760
Old Testament who had no control
over his sons. 

203
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,640
They were in the ministry and 
they went around having sex and 

204
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,720
doing whatever they wanted to 
do. 

205
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:27,280
And he died because of it 
because the scripture says he 

206
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:34,080
did not do anything about it. 
So we as parents, as authorities

207
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,360
in our own home, we have to take
authority. 

208
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:42,080
I definitely went there. 
OK, so are we ready for this? 

209
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,560
Are we ready for a gift of the 
Spirit to manifest? 

210
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,680
Are we ready for demons to come 
off of people? 

211
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:55,760
Let's look at an example in Acts
chapter 8, verses 4 through 8. 

212
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,480
Acts chapter 8, verses 4 through
8, it says. 

213
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:02,280
Therefore those who were 
scattered went everywhere 

214
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,680
preaching the Word. 
Then Philip went down to the 

215
00:14:05,680 --> 00:14:08,680
city of Samaria and preached 
Christ to them. 

216
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,200
And the multitudes with one 
accord heeded the things spoken 

217
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:16,920
by Philip, hearing and seeing 
the miracles which he did. 

218
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:22,080
Now listen to verse 7. 
For unclean spirits crying with 

219
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:27,360
a loud voice came out of many 
who were possessed, and many who

220
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,880
were paralyzed and lame were 
healed. 

221
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,480
And there was great joy in the 
city. 

222
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,840
We're going to see it. 
We are seeing it and we need to 

223
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:42,840
be ready for it. 
I remember years ago when I was 

224
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,520
at a church when I first got 
filled with the Holy Ghost and 

225
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:50,520
went to a spirit filled church. 
I remember the the minister was 

226
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:54,560
preaching and it's going to 
sound a little wild, but but 

227
00:14:55,120 --> 00:15:00,960
somebody from the back of the 
service fell on the floor and 

228
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,280
slithered all the way to the 
front. 

229
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,560
And I was like what is happening
right now? 

230
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,000
And I don't, I didn't know what 
was happening. 

231
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:15,400
I didn't understand it, but I 
knew God was moving And that 

232
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:19,360
person went down to the front 
and the minister recognized it, 

233
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:24,320
casted whatever was happening 
out or off or whatever he did 

234
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,360
and they were delivered and 
walked back to their seat. 

235
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:35,120
Thank the Lord and and I just 
don't want you to be surprised. 

236
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:39,440
I'm not saying that's going to 
happen, but I'm not saying it's 

237
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,640
not going to happen. 
Then we're not going to see 

238
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:46,840
things happen. 
Now Mark chapter one verse 23 

239
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:50,240
says now there was a man in 
their synagogue with an unclean 

240
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:54,400
spirit and he cried out saying 
let us alone. 

241
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:58,000
What have we to do with you? 
Jesus of Nazareth, Did you come 

242
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,160
to destroy us? 
I know who you are, the holy one

243
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:02,880
of God. 
You know, demons should know who

244
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:06,720
we are. 
We it shouldn't be I adjure you 

245
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:11,040
in the name of Jesus, the one 
that pastor preaches about it 

246
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,480
shouldn't be any of that 
happening from you because 

247
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,440
you're taught the word. 
You know who you are in Christ. 

248
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:21,520
But when we had take authority, 
the demons should recognize us. 

249
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,480
They should know and say wait, 
don't wait. 

250
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,120
I don't want you to come here 
because they know where they 

251
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:28,640
know they're going to get spoken
to. 

252
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,680
They know they're going to have 
to leave that vessel and go find

253
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:35,640
another one. 
And you know us as a body. 

254
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,560
We've got to encourage those 
that are getting delivered and 

255
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:44,280
set free once their house is 
clean, we need to make sure that

256
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:49,880
we're training them so that 
demons, far worse, don't come 

257
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:53,280
like the scripture says, to 
inhabit them. 

258
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,840
And so when we see people 
getting delivered and saying 

259
00:16:55,880 --> 00:17:00,440
free, it's our job to come in 
and undergird them and and lift 

260
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,600
them up and encourage them in 
the Lord. 

261
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,720
And we're going to do that. 
We are that body. 

262
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,640
I want to keep reading in verse 
25. 

263
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:14,400
But Jesus rebuked him, saying, 
Be quiet and come out of him. 

264
00:17:14,599 --> 00:17:19,800
And when the unclean spirit had 
convulsed him and cried with a 

265
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:25,119
loud voice, he came out of him. 
Then they were all amazed, so 

266
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,720
that they questioned among 
themselves, saying, What is 

267
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:32,440
this? 
What new doctrine is this for? 

268
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,840
With what authority? 
He commands even the unclean 

269
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,520
spirits, and they obey him. 
This is no new doctrine. 

270
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,880
This is the authority of God. 
This is the name of Jesus. 

271
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,680
This Is Us speaking. 
Do you think you might see 

272
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,800
somebody convulse? 
Do you think you might see a 

273
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:52,040
demon scream and come out? 
You're going to see it. 

274
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,680
And I'm telling you more and 
more in the last days as the 

275
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:59,880
occult is on the rise and the 
New Age is on the rise, we've 

276
00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:04,240
got to have such wisdom and be 
led by the Holy Ghost and such 

277
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,280
discernment to understand, 
because they'll even use the 

278
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:11,560
name of Christ, that whole New 
Age movement. 

279
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:16,560
They have this, this whole mind 
body connection, nothing to do 

280
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,080
with faith, nothing to do with 
the Holy Ghost. 

281
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:22,600
And they'll say you're so 
beautiful that you have Christ 

282
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:26,000
in you. 
They'll take words in verbiage 

283
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,680
from the Scripture and use it. 
And we've got it. 

284
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:33,120
There's got to be something in 
you that goes, something's not 

285
00:18:33,120 --> 00:18:36,160
right. 
Something's not right about 

286
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:40,600
that. 
We've got to be so in tune with 

287
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,000
the Holy Ghost and know the Word
of God that we can speak to 

288
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,080
stuff, that we can take 
authority in the spirit. 

289
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:49,480
It's no new doctrine. 
It's the power of God. 

290
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,400
And the unclean spirits obeyed 
him. 

291
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:57,600
So if we want demons to obey us,
we've got to understand, not be 

292
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,200
ignorant, make sure that we're 
taking authority in our own 

293
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,800
home, our own lives, our own 
mind. 

294
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,080
Amen. 
Three of the four gospels tell 

295
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:09,000
the account of a boy who was 
demon possessed and Jesus cast 

296
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:10,480
it out of. 
I'm going to read one of them to

297
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:14,120
you. 
In Mark Chapter 9 verses 26 and 

298
00:19:14,120 --> 00:19:19,520
27, it says after crying out and
convulsing him terribly, it came

299
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:24,480
out and the boy was like a 
corpse so that most of them said

300
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:28,520
he is dead, but Jesus took him 
by the hand and lifted him up 

301
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:32,600
and he was able to stand. 
I remember when Pastor Mike and 

302
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:36,680
I worked at the group home here 
in Saint Augustine and we, we 

303
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:40,440
lived with eight, what they 
called emotionally handicapped 

304
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:42,960
boys. 
They're not emotionally 

305
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,320
handicapped. 
They're broken. 

306
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:49,240
And there's a difference when 
you have a dysfunctional home. 

307
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:53,280
Those, those things affect you 
in your adulthood if you don't 

308
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,240
allow God in and you don't allow
God to heal. 

309
00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:01,760
But there was a kid there, not 
Jacob, but another one that that

310
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,680
would have these moments. 
He'll know what I'm talking 

311
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,360
about when I say it. 
He would have these moments and 

312
00:20:07,360 --> 00:20:10,880
his whole face would change and 
his whole behavior. 

313
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,360
If you're would change and I 
remember pastor Mike and I were 

314
00:20:14,360 --> 00:20:18,240
dealing with him in the bedroom 
one time and this demonic thing 

315
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,520
came over him and he started 
looking at me saying you're 

316
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,000
you're never going to have a 
baby. 

317
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:24,920
You're never going. 
I hadn't I didn't have any 

318
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,680
children by birth at the time. 
It just started speaking some 

319
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,800
things. 
I was like, I stood there for a 

320
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,640
minute and I I said to my 
husband, I'm going to do it. 

321
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,480
And I because I knew I had 
unction that there's a demon on 

322
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:42,840
him, maybe in him that he's 
yielding to. 

323
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:47,640
And so we laid hands on him, 
cast that thing out and he was 

324
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:52,160
he was violent, he was vicious. 
He was, you know, doing stuff 

325
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,440
that that he would have had to 
be physically restrained for. 

326
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:59,240
And all of a sudden when we cast
that demon off of him, he just 

327
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,240
stepped back and sat on the bed,
actually was kind of drooling. 

328
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,720
Just sat there was calm like 
that. 

329
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:07,880
It came out and he was like a 
corpse. 

330
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,880
He convulsed. 
He he had a moment. 

331
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:15,320
We had to get on top of that, 
get that thing out. 

332
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:19,280
And then he just sat on the bed 
and he was calm it back in his 

333
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,040
right mind. 
This is real. 

334
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,800
This is not kooky. 
This is not weird stuff. 

335
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:30,240
This is, you know, the spirit 
realm is more real than you and 

336
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:34,200
me. 
What's happening in the spirit, 

337
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:39,320
what you can't see is, is a lot 
more real than what you can see.

338
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:42,320
And we've got to be aware of 
that. 

339
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,840
We've got to understand that in 
the last days, these demonic 

340
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:50,080
things in these, this sorcery 
and this occult is going to be 

341
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,520
on the rise. 
And we've got to be in the 

342
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:56,800
Spirit, in the Word, having 
discernment, yielding, coveting,

343
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,560
earnestly desiring spiritual 
gifts. 

344
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:05,040
And that's why I'm so grateful 
for our senior pastors. 

345
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,320
That pastor said, we've got to 
talk about this. 

346
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,320
We've got to talk about the 
gifts of the sphere because most

347
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:15,640
of the church doesn't know and 
really is ignorant about it. 

348
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,960
And so they don't operate it. 
They can't desire it because 

349
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,800
they don't understand it and 
they don't really know how to 

350
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:26,080
get in there and study it out. 
So, so no more from this point 

351
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:30,000
forward, we're a body that's 
equipped and we're a body that's

352
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:34,720
going to go out into the ignite 
impact influence and say God, I 

353
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,520
earnestly desire spiritual 
gifts. 

354
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:40,880
I'm hungry for the Holy Ghost 
and full of the Holy Ghost. 

355
00:22:41,120 --> 00:22:45,400
So remember, these seducing 
spirits and doctrines of demons 

356
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,280
are going to be so prevalent in 
the last days. 

357
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:52,880
And if we if we remain carnal, 
if we remain, you know, not 

358
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,800
built up in the spirit, you, 
you're not going to survive. 

359
00:22:55,800 --> 00:23:01,000
Can I just say that because 
you're going to be tossed to and

360
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:07,720
fro by every wave and every wind
of doctrine that comes along and

361
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:12,480
every trial that comes and go, 
what's happening is Jesus coming

362
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,280
back. 
What's going on? 

363
00:23:14,360 --> 00:23:17,960
You got to be so strong that you
literally can just look at it 

364
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,680
and say, Jesus told us this was 
going to happen. 

365
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:23,880
Lord, tell me how I need to 
pray. 

366
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:28,360
Tell me what I need to do Amen. 
So we're going to be aware 

367
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:32,160
because the Word of God is your 
foundation, and you got to make 

368
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,080
sure that you're staying in the 
Word. 

369
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,600
We can't get off even in the 
gifts of the Spirit. 

370
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:41,360
Really, those things have to be 
done decently in an order the 

371
00:23:41,360 --> 00:23:45,760
Scripture talks about two or 
three at the most, because 

372
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,520
that's why actually Paul had to 
come in and talk to the 

373
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,720
Corinthian church because they 
were getting out of order. 

374
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:56,000
And so, so the word of God, 
don't you ever, ever, ever 

375
00:23:56,280 --> 00:24:00,560
despise the word of God being 
taught, the word of God being 

376
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:02,600
preached to you. 
That's when you should be 

377
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,960
leaning in. 
That's when you should be on the

378
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:10,680
edge of your seat saying, talk 
to me, God, I'm yielded to the 

379
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,680
Holy Ghost. 
Because that's when we're going 

380
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:18,440
to see solid, mature believers 
who know how to yield to the 

381
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:20,480
gifts. 
Amen. 

382
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,120
So that's the foundation got to 
be laid. 

383
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:28,840
Now let let's look at, or let me
just quote to you Ecclesiastes 

384
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,880
84. 
As these things are on the rise,

385
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,480
we've got to have not only an 
intimacy where the Holy Ghost 

386
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:40,280
but Ecclesiastes 84 says where 
the word of the King is, there's

387
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:42,760
power. 
So we've got to make sure that 

388
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,720
we have the word of God and the 
Holy Ghost. 

389
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:51,800
Acts 1038 says how God anointed 
Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy 

390
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:56,920
Spirit and power who went about 
doing good and healing all who 

391
00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,920
were oppressed by the devil, for
God was with him. 

392
00:25:00,120 --> 00:25:04,920
Notice it says he was anointed 
with the Holy Spirit and power. 

393
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,800
He wasn't just anointed with 
just the power. 

394
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:12,080
You know, that's how people get 
off as they just want the power.

395
00:25:13,120 --> 00:25:14,680
They just want to move in the 
power. 

396
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:20,080
No, Jesus was anointed with the 
Holy Ghost, the intimacy of the 

397
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,760
Spirit of God. 
Remember, I read to you in 

398
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:26,320
Second Corinthians that we're 
supposed to have that communion,

399
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:31,160
that intimacy with him on a 
daily basis, all the time, all 

400
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,640
day, not just be hungry for I 
just want to see a sign. 

401
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:38,360
I just want to see a miracle. 
I just want to see that's how 

402
00:25:38,360 --> 00:25:41,280
you get off. 
You got to make sure that you're

403
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,360
in the word and you're in 
intimate fellowship with the 

404
00:25:44,360 --> 00:25:48,480
Holy Ghost, not just power, 
intimacy and a life yielded. 

405
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,440
You know, we're really living in
the greatest time. 

406
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,400
We really are living in the 
greatest time if we'll just 

407
00:25:55,440 --> 00:26:01,400
empty ourselves, if we'll just 
get, you know, as I read in 

408
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,280
Second Timothy, it says people 
are going to become lovers of 

409
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:08,320
their own selves. 
You've got to really guard 

410
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,880
against that. 
You've got to really guard 

411
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,800
against that in the last days 
that we are not lovers of 

412
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:20,040
ourselves, our lives, what we're
doing, our ministries are this, 

413
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:23,080
this is what I'm doing. 
But then almost you just take a 

414
00:26:23,120 --> 00:26:26,880
complete backseat from ever 
talking about what you do. 

415
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:32,480
It's just a safe place to be if 
you'll just every time, remember

416
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,800
I said this last week, every 
time someone gives you a praise 

417
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:39,320
or an accolade that you just, 
you just give that as an 

418
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:43,760
offering to the Lord that I just
give that back to him that you 

419
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:48,080
just don't take any credit for 
anything like that because it's 

420
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:51,280
not about you. 
And we can't just look to the 

421
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,120
ministry gifts, the pastor, 
prophet, evangelist, teacher, we

422
00:26:55,120 --> 00:26:58,360
can't just look to those 
ministry gifts to move in the 

423
00:26:58,360 --> 00:27:01,040
gifts of the Spirit. 
It's the whole body. 

424
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:05,120
It's all of us. 
Now let's jump into these last 

425
00:27:05,120 --> 00:27:07,720
three. 
Thank you Lord, I thank you 

426
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,840
Father. 
Hallelujah. 

427
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:14,680
First Corinthians chapter 12 Now
concerning spiritual gifts, 

428
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,480
brethren, I do not want you to 
be ignorant. 

429
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,880
You know that you were Gentiles,
carried away to these dumb 

430
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:22,800
idols. 
However you were led. 

431
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,360
Therefore I make known to you 
that no one speaking by the 

432
00:27:26,360 --> 00:27:30,200
Spirit of God calls Jesus a 
curse, and no one can say that 

433
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,080
Jesus is Lord except by the Holy
Spirit. 

434
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:37,280
There are diversities of gifts, 
but the same Spirit. 

435
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,680
There are differences of 
industries but the same Lord, 

436
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:44,120
and there are diversities of 
activities, but it's the same 

437
00:27:44,120 --> 00:27:47,720
God who works All in all. 
But the manifestation of the 

438
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:51,440
Spirit is given to each one for 
the profit of all. 

439
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:54,840
It's always going to profit. 
For to one is given the Word of 

440
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,080
wisdom through the Spirit, to 
another the word of knowledge 

441
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,720
through the same Spirit, to 
another faith by the same 

442
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:05,920
Spirit, to another gifts of 
healings, by the same Spirit, to

443
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:10,800
another the working of miracles,
to another prophecy, to another 

444
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,160
discerning of spirits, to 
another different kinds of 

445
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,720
tongues, and to another the 
interpretation of tongues. 

446
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:22,080
But one and the same Spirit 
works all these things, 

447
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:26,440
distributing to each one 
individually as he wills. 

448
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:30,400
Verse 31. 
But earnestly desire the best 

449
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:34,360
gifts. 
And yet I will show you a more 

450
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,320
excellent way. 
So he distinguishes between 

451
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:42,040
gifts, ministries, and 
administrations. 2 important 

452
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:45,680
things to remember when these 
gifts are in in manifestation is

453
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:50,720
that Jesus will be glorified and
the body will benefit. 

454
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,000
The body or whoever's being 
spoken to and whoever's giving 

455
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:58,120
the Word or are manifesting the 
gift of the Spirit, it will 

456
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,240
benefit Jesus, will be 
magnified. 

457
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:04,800
Now we're going to cover these 
gifts of inspiration, prophecy, 

458
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,240
tongues, and interpretation of 
tongues. 

459
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:11,160
These three are primarily for 
the church. 

460
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:15,880
Remember I said these 9 gifts of
the Spirit are for service, and 

461
00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,640
they are. 
But these three are really going

462
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:22,560
to operate right here the most 
the majority of the time right 

463
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:23,760
here. 
They're for the church. 

464
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,880
All of chapter 14 is about 
prophecy. 

465
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,240
First Corinthians all of chapter
14 is about prophecy, tongues 

466
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:34,280
and interpretation of tongues. 
So interesting that first 

467
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:38,240
Corinthians chapter 12 lays out 
these these things of the 

468
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,720
Spirit, these gifts of the 
Spirit tells us, teaches us 

469
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,720
about it, talks about the 
ministry gifts and then says, 

470
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:46,840
but you know, make sure love is 
first. 

471
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,280
And then it goes into first 
Corinthians 13, you know, talks 

472
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,760
about what love is, what the 
love of God. 

473
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,560
You can speak in the tongue of 
men and angels and you don't 

474
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,600
have love. 
Doesn't profit anything. 

475
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:02,160
And then it goes on to chapter 
14 and dedicates a whole chapter

476
00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:06,920
to prophecy, tongues and 
interpretation of tongues. 

477
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:11,240
Why does it do that? 
Why does it give us a whole 

478
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,360
chapter? 
One reason because they were 

479
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:16,480
getting off in these things. 
But then also because the 

480
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:20,000
Scripture talks about there's 
diversities of tongues and 

481
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:25,720
people get confused about that. 
There are differences of tongues

482
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:27,040
and we're going to talk about 
that. 

483
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:32,320
If tongues were just a sign at 
Pentecost for the church, then 

484
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:36,160
why would he give us a whole 
chapter explaining what these 

485
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:41,440
different kinds of tongues are? 
So it so it gets rid of that 

486
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,920
explanation. 
And I just say that to say, if 

487
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,920
you're not baptized in the Holy 
Ghost with the evidence of 

488
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,200
speaking in tongues, you need 
that. 

489
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:52,280
You need him. 
He's not a dove, he's not a 

490
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,920
bird, he's not the wind. 
You need him. 

491
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,400
You need the Holy Ghost upon 
you. 

492
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:01,560
So let's start with prophecy. 
Prophecy is, I hope you're 

493
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:06,560
taking notes. 
Prophecy is the simplest form of

494
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:10,880
inspired utterance. 
Oh, there's great clarity coming

495
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:15,240
to you if you lean in. 
Prophecy is the simplest form of

496
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:19,240
inspired utterance. 
It's supernatural, it's inspired

497
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:24,400
by God, and it's spoken in a 
known tongue in English for us 

498
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:28,040
it would be spoken. 
Howard Carter calls prophecy the

499
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:32,920
poetry of the Spirit. 
Prophecy of the is the first of 

500
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:35,080
these three gifts of 
inspiration. 

501
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,360
But let me explain to you, if 
there's a tongue in 

502
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,760
interpretation that happens, it 
is equal to prophecy. 

503
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,760
Those are equal. 
First Corinthians chapter 4 

504
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:49,320
verse 3 says, but he who 
prophecies speaks. 

505
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:54,640
This is the definition for it, 
edification and exhortation and 

506
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,760
comfort to men. 
So you understand this is what 

507
00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,720
happened when Pastor Mike got up
here. 

508
00:31:59,960 --> 00:32:03,320
I believe it was during no, he 
came up and gave it what he and 

509
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,560
during offering you had a little
bit of of a gift of prophecy as 

510
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:12,200
well, but he came up and gave an
inspired word that that got our 

511
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:15,240
attention right. 
It wasn't, it wasn't just that 

512
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,920
he was even in the beginning 
doing the offering, but then he 

513
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:22,360
then he got off on something 
that was like, whoa, it grabbed 

514
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,640
you, it grabbed your attention. 
He got up and gave a word that 

515
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:29,400
edified you. 
It exhorted you, it brought you 

516
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:33,800
closer to God, it comforted you.
That is the simple gift of 

517
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,080
prophecy. 
And so for explanation purposes 

518
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:42,320
for you to understand a prophet,
the ministry of the prophet is 

519
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:46,080
different when we say the 
prophet prophesied. 

520
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,280
So. 
So a prophet should be operating

521
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,800
in a word of wisdom and a word 
of knowledge. 

522
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:55,280
And those things, generally 
speaking, can be called 

523
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:59,480
prophecy, but it's different 
than this gift of prophecy. 

524
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,400
So you need to understand that 
if someone says, you know, 

525
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:07,920
Brother Barry gave me a word of 
wisdom and that was a he spoke 

526
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:10,160
prophetically over me. 
Did he? 

527
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:13,160
Yeah, he did. 
And that's different, though, 

528
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,240
than what Pastor Mike did this 
morning. 

529
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:20,200
A word of edification, a word of
exhortation, and a word of 

530
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,280
comfort. 
That word, prophecy. 

531
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:26,560
This gift of prophecy, it means 
to flow forth, to bubble forth 

532
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:30,440
like a fountain, and to lift up 
or just spring forth. 

533
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:35,640
It's fresh and pure inspiration 
from God for that moment, and it

534
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:40,080
brings edification. 
But not every inspired utterance

535
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:43,880
is this gift of prophecy. 
And for example, preaching is 

536
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,480
not prophecy, but is it 
inspired? 

537
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,760
It is. 
But during preaching, could a 

538
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,800
gift of prophecy come? 
Yes. 

539
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:56,400
So if preaching was this simple 
gift of prophecy, then you 

540
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,120
wouldn't need to study because 
it would all just come. 

541
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:03,440
It would just all come out. 
But during whether it's been 

542
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,200
when I've been up here, when 
pastors up here, whoever's up 

543
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:10,480
here, during the preaching of 
the Word, it's inspired and he's

544
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:14,520
proclaiming, but all the sudden 
there will be a moment that 

545
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:17,600
grabs you. 
It grabs your attention. 

546
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,560
It's like edification for you. 
It's like exhortation for you. 

547
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:25,679
It, it lifts the whole body. 
That's the simple gift of 

548
00:34:25,679 --> 00:34:29,400
prophecy. 
So you'll know when it happens. 

549
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,360
It happens in worship. 
It happened this morning in 

550
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:34,840
worship. 
It happens when when they're up 

551
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,040
here singing and get a word to 
edify you. 

552
00:34:37,199 --> 00:34:39,440
That's a simple gift of 
prophecy. 

553
00:34:39,679 --> 00:34:43,760
The gifts of the Spirit are 
there to arrest the attention. 

554
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:47,880
So even at the day of Pentecost 
when tongues fell and they all 

555
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:52,880
were baptized, that was a sign. 
It was a a tongue that was a 

556
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,199
sign. 
But they didn't get saved until 

557
00:34:55,199 --> 00:34:59,840
Peter preached. 
So, so these gifts of the Spirit

558
00:34:59,920 --> 00:35:05,440
are in operation to grab the 
attention of an unbeliever or a 

559
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:08,520
believer. 
So we need to understand that. 

560
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:13,000
So I want to, oh, I already 
explained that. 

561
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,760
I already explained that First 
Corinthians chapter 4 verses one

562
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:23,480
through 5 says pursue love and 
desire spiritual gifts, but 

563
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,760
especially that you may 
prophecy. 

564
00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:30,880
Why does it say that pursue love
and desire spiritual gifts, but 

565
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,040
especially that you may 
prophecy? 

566
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,200
And it's because it's going to 
help us. 

567
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,400
Do we need help? 
Do we need comfort? 

568
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:42,440
Do we need lifting up? 
And so that's why it says 

569
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,440
especially desire that you may 
prophecy. 

570
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:50,400
It brings us closer to God. 
It's a vocal gift that that 

571
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:54,120
brings joy and lifts us up. 
First Corinthians chapter 14 

572
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:58,920
verse 39 says, therefore, 
brethren, desire earnestly to 

573
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:02,400
prophecy and do not forbid to 
speak in tongues. 

574
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:09,880
Let all things be done decently 
and in order, decently and in 

575
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:11,040
order. 
I want to give you a couple of 

576
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:15,320
examples in First Samuel. 
This one kind of is is mind 

577
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:16,760
blowing. 
We got to think about it. 

578
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:19,680
Sometimes we read the Old 
Testament and go, wow, they did 

579
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:23,480
some amazing things for not 
having the Holy Ghost within and

580
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:27,080
upon them. 
And how much more should we be 

581
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:32,040
equipped because we do, we have 
the Holy Ghost within us and 

582
00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:34,760
upon us. 
First Samuel, when Hannah 

583
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:40,200
dedicated Samuel in verse 27, 
chapter 1, it says I prayed for 

584
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,240
this child and the Lord has 
granted me what I asked of him. 

585
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,880
So now I give him to the Lord 
for his whole life. 

586
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,240
He will be given over to the 
Lord and he worshipped the Lord 

587
00:36:50,240 --> 00:36:52,960
there. 
And then chapter 2, then Hannah 

588
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:54,400
prayed and said, think about 
this. 

589
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,720
So when I read this, can you 
think about this woman? 

590
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:03,680
When I read this, this woman had
a baby and weaned him. 

591
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:07,800
So I don't know how old he he 
was exactly, but she weaned him 

592
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:11,040
and then took him and gave him 
to the Lord. 

593
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:16,960
Can you imagine as a Mama what 
she may have felt in her 

594
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:20,960
emotions? 
But it says in chapter 2 verse 

595
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:25,440
one. 
Then Hannah prayed and said, my 

596
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:28,960
heart rejoices in the Lord, in 
the Lord. 

597
00:37:29,240 --> 00:37:34,880
My horn is lifted high, my mouth
boasts over my enemies, for I 

598
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:39,760
delight in your deliverance. 
There is no one holy like the 

599
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:41,520
Lord. 
There's no one beside you. 

600
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:47,160
There's no rock like our God. 
Maybe she started out in her 

601
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:50,160
emotion. 
Maybe she started out just 

602
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,920
saying, God, I'm going to praise
you. 

603
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,720
And, and, and I can only imagine
that that there was emotion and 

604
00:37:56,720 --> 00:37:59,880
there were tears streaming down 
her face. 

605
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:06,080
But but as she began, as she 
began to thank him, this this 

606
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:10,880
gift of prophecy overtook her 
and she began to say, Oh, my 

607
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:15,920
heart rejoices in the Lord. 
There's none like you got. 

608
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:19,440
And can I just encourage you? 
Sometimes you got to just kind 

609
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:27,240
of step out in the flesh and 
then the and then and then there

610
00:38:27,240 --> 00:38:29,920
it is. 
Hallelujah. 

611
00:38:30,240 --> 00:38:32,840
Thank you, Lord. 
Sometimes you just got to step 

612
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,440
out because you, you just know, 
OK. 

613
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:40,360
I remember a time when I had 
injured my knee and we had gone 

614
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,160
to a meeting. 
Marty Blackwelder was 

615
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:45,840
ministering. 
And I remember I couldn't run, 

616
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:50,200
much less walk normal. 
And I remember, I don't even 

617
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:53,080
remember what he was saying. 
Something came over me and I 

618
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:56,960
knew I just needed to take off. 
And so I did. 

619
00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:01,240
I took off and I was healed. 
I wasn't healed in my seat. 

620
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,520
I wasn't healed and wouldn't 
have been healed if I'd have 

621
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:09,720
stayed in my seat. 
But the minute I obeyed and just

622
00:39:09,720 --> 00:39:13,640
stepped on out and and took off,
it was all gone. 

623
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,920
Completely healed. 
And I'm just telling you, that's

624
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:18,680
a word of encouragement for a 
lot of you. 

625
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,880
Sometimes you just need to get 
out of your comfort zone. 

626
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,800
Sometimes you just need to get 
out of your seat. 

627
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:30,880
You just need to, there's a 
freedom on the other side of you

628
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:35,200
obeying God that some of you 
haven't even touched, haven't 

629
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,000
even experienced yet. 
And I'm just telling you that 

630
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:41,120
some of you, it's just going to 
take, even if it's just like, 

631
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:45,040
I'm just going to step right on 
out here into the aisle like 

632
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,120
this. 
I mean, this is what I'm going 

633
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:48,800
to do. 
And maybe that's your step of 

634
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:52,560
faith. 
That's OK, do that, but you need

635
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:56,000
to get out. 
And sometimes it takes that move

636
00:39:56,360 --> 00:40:00,240
of faith for you, for the Spirit
of God to come on you. 

637
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:04,760
And things to happen. 
So I cannot imagine Hannah's 

638
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:09,400
prayer and her moment of 
thanking God in that moment. 

639
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:13,320
But that's an example of the 
simple gift of prophecy. 

640
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:16,800
Psalm 134. 
There are so many psalms that 

641
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:21,640
are the gift of prophecy. 
Psalms 134 says, Behold, bless 

642
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:25,960
the Lord, all you servants of 
the Lord, who by night stand in 

643
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:29,880
the House of the Lord, lift up 
your hands in the sanctuary and 

644
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:33,920
bless the Lord, the Lord who 
made heaven and earth, bless you

645
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:38,640
from Zion. 
Psalms 138 says I will praise 

646
00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:42,440
you with my whole heart before 
the gods. 

647
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:46,680
I will sing praises to You. 
I will worship towards Your holy

648
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:52,040
temple and praise Your name. 
Praise Your name for Your loving

649
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:56,320
kindness and Your truth. 
You have magnified Your word 

650
00:40:56,520 --> 00:41:00,160
above all Your name. 
In the day when I cried out, you

651
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:04,440
answered me and made me bold 
with strength in my soul. 

652
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:10,560
These Psalms are Psalms that 
some of you need to grab hold of

653
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:15,680
and just and just start singing 
them at home and just start 

654
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:20,440
quoting them out loud at home. 
Get in the mirror and just start

655
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,640
saying them out loud. 
And there's something that ought

656
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:29,320
to, something that ought to rise
up in you and go, Yeah, yeah. 

657
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,400
Kind of like when I'm reading 
these scriptures, you're you're 

658
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:35,200
listening and I can sense that 
you're, you know, you're leaning

659
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:36,800
in. 
But the more I read, you're 

660
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:40,680
like, there's something in your 
spirit, man, that's like, I want

661
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:43,680
to stand up. 
I want to lift my hand. 

662
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:50,640
I want to do it respond to God 
because it's your spirit, man 

663
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:54,200
being strengthened, being 
edified, being exhorted, being 

664
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:58,000
lifted up more and more. 
And when pastor gets back and 

665
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:02,200
begins preaching the word, if 
something ignites you, then be 

666
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:06,880
ignited. 
Get get up on the inside. 

667
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:09,680
Nobody's going to stop you 
unless you are not in the 

668
00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,200
spirit. 
Then I, I have the I get the 

669
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,680
tackle ministry because I want 
it. 

670
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,280
I just because I want it. 
Actually, I want the tackle 

671
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,720
ministry. 
But we'll only tackle you if 

672
00:42:20,720 --> 00:42:23,720
you're, you know, being kooky 
and not in the spirit. 

673
00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:27,240
And trust me, we'll know it and 
everybody else will know it that

674
00:42:27,240 --> 00:42:30,200
you're acting kind of wild. 
OK, let's go to Ephesians 

675
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:34,400
chapter 5. 
Let me say this to you. 

676
00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:37,760
I want you to think about this 
in your personal life. 

677
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,720
Guard against always having 
something in your ear and in 

678
00:42:41,720 --> 00:42:46,400
front of your face. 
Because if you always have 

679
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:50,920
something in your ear and you 
always have gotten social media 

680
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,840
in front of you, you're not 
building your spirit up. 

681
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:59,480
If you think that you can just 
come and sit in church and not 

682
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:03,440
go home and be a doer of the 
word by not only reading, but 

683
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:08,440
singing praises to the Lord, 
glorifying his name, magnifying 

684
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,080
him at home. 
If you don't do any of that, I'm

685
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:13,080
telling you, you're not full of 
the spirit. 

686
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:19,640
There's no man and no woman that
that that accidentally cheated 

687
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:22,840
on their spouse or accident. 
We went that was a spirit filled

688
00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:24,760
believer. 
No, they weren't. 

689
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:28,080
No, they weren't full of the 
spirit that day, and they 

690
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:30,560
weren't filled with the spirit 
probably about a month before 

691
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:34,520
either. 
You got to make sure that you're

692
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:38,880
full of the Holy Ghost. 
And that means it doesn't matter

693
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,400
how you feel. 
I'm telling you, if we can just 

694
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,760
grab a hold of it, it doesn't 
matter how you feel. 

695
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:47,200
You just got to grab. 
Oh, I bless you, Lord, all the 

696
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:49,840
servants of. 
I bless you, Lord, You're so 

697
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,280
good. 
Your mercy endures forever. 

698
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:55,040
Thank you, Lord, that you give 
strength to my soul. 

699
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:58,440
Thank, thank you, Lord, that you
quicken me, that you get home, 

700
00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:03,000
do these things because it 
doesn't matter that you can come

701
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:06,200
in here and do it. 
You know, the Lord spoke to me 

702
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:08,480
years ago. 
Thank you, Lord. 

703
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:16,160
Hallelujah spoke to me years ago
about Saul and how he, David 

704
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:21,560
would come in and play for him 
because he was tormented and, 

705
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:26,040
and every time David played for 
him, he would feel good and the 

706
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:28,880
torment would go. 
But then when David would leave,

707
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:32,480
there he was. 
And, and the Lord spoke to me 

708
00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:34,480
and said, many people in the 
church are that way. 

709
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:39,040
They come in and they, they feel
better 'cause they're in the 

710
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:41,840
church and they feel better 
because they worship and they 

711
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,800
feel better 'cause they heard 
the word and they go home and 

712
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:48,440
they stay in the same torment 
and the same strongholds and the

713
00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:55,120
same bondages should never be. 
God created us to be a mighty, 

714
00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:58,280
mighty force on the earth, on 
the earth. 

715
00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:01,680
And that the Church of Jesus 
Christ could not be stopped. 

716
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:03,160
The gates of hell would not 
prevail. 

717
00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:07,720
You're the church. 
So we've got to make sure if 

718
00:45:07,720 --> 00:45:11,720
we're going to, like I said, 
take authority outside of us, 

719
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:16,320
that we're taking authority 
here, that we're living it right

720
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:19,280
here on the inside of us. 
Ephesians chapter 5. 

721
00:45:22,240 --> 00:45:26,600
See then, in this last day can I
add to the Scripture. 

722
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:31,920
See then that you walk 
circumspectly, not as fools, but

723
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:36,400
as wise, redeeming the time, 
because the days are evil. 

724
00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:40,480
Therefore do not be unwise, but 
understand what the will of the 

725
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:45,400
Lord is, and do not be drunk 
with wine, which is dissipation,

726
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:48,480
but be filled with the Spirit. 
We read this the first week. 

727
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:53,040
Be filled with the Spirit 
speaking to one another in 

728
00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:56,040
psalms. 
There's the psalms and hymns and

729
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:59,280
spiritual songs. 
Singing and making melody in 

730
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:03,040
your heart to the Lord. 
Giving thanks always for all 

731
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:06,720
thanks to God the Father in the 
name of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

732
00:46:06,720 --> 00:46:10,000
Submitting to one another in the
fear of the Lord being filled. 

733
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:13,960
Singing psalms and hymns and 
spiritual songs. 

734
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:18,280
Psalms chapter 96 says, Oh, sing
to the Lord a new song. 

735
00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:20,400
Sing to the Lord, all you, all 
the earth. 

736
00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:22,600
Sing to the Lord and bless His 
name. 

737
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:25,800
Proclaim the good news of His 
salvation from day-to-day. 

738
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:29,760
Declare His glory among the 
nations, His wonders among the 

739
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:35,720
peoples, for the Lord is great 
and greatly to be praised. 

740
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:40,080
Colossians 316. 
Let the word of Christ dwell in 

741
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:43,920
you richly in all wisdom, 
teaching and admonishing one 

742
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:49,720
another in psalms and hymns and 
spiritual songs, singing with 

743
00:46:49,720 --> 00:46:51,920
grace in your hearts to the 
Lord. 

744
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:54,520
You know you ought to be able to
sing anytime. 

745
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:58,200
Make a joyful noise. 
You don't have to sound good, 

746
00:46:58,720 --> 00:47:01,400
but you ought to always be able 
to sing. 

747
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:04,280
Thank you, Lord, you're worthy. 
I honor you. 

748
00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:08,040
You ought to be always be able 
to just lift up your voice and 

749
00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:12,440
and sing to him at home, not 
just here all the time. 

750
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:16,240
And if you need help and you 
can't get at your own Psalm and 

751
00:47:16,240 --> 00:47:19,840
your own song to come out, just 
start reading the Psalms. 

752
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:25,560
Just start singing the Psalms. 
Revelation 1910 Prophecies for 

753
00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:29,200
the Church. 
It's for believers, edification,

754
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:33,160
exhortation and comfort. 
Then he said to me, Revelations 

755
00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:34,640
19, I'm going to start in verse 
9. 

756
00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:38,520
Then he said to me, right, 
blessed are those who are called

757
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:40,400
to the marriage supper of the 
Lamb. 

758
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:43,920
And he said to me, these are the
true sayings of God. 

759
00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:47,960
And I fell at his feet to 
worship him, But he said to me, 

760
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:51,800
see that you do not do that. 
I'm your fellow servant and of 

761
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:56,160
your brethren who have the 
testimony of Jesus worship God, 

762
00:47:56,920 --> 00:48:02,320
for the testimony of Jesus is 
the spirit of prophecy, for the 

763
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,960
testimony of Jesus is a spirit 
of prophecy. 

764
00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:08,520
So if I asked you to come up 
here and give your testimony, 

765
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:11,360
you know, months ago we had a 
testimony service. 

766
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:14,400
I can't remember if we had a 
guest minister, if pastor did 

767
00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:17,520
it, but but several came up and 
gave their testimony. 

768
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,440
They didn't, they didn't write 
it out, they didn't practice it.

769
00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:23,600
It was just unction. 
It was just come up and give 

770
00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:26,160
your testimony. 
That is called prophecy. 

771
00:48:26,240 --> 00:48:29,840
The simple gift of prophecy 
because Jesus is being 

772
00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:32,840
magnified, Jesus is being 
glorified. 

773
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:36,200
So the testimony of Jesus is the
spirit of prophecy. 

774
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:39,240
So for example, Raphael, come up
here. 

775
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:44,720
For example, I'm going to have 
Raphael not planned, not not 

776
00:48:44,720 --> 00:48:47,720
written out. 
Give the testimony of what 

777
00:48:47,720 --> 00:48:51,680
happened at PCI. 
Come up here, Raphael, the 

778
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:59,280
testimony of what happened at 
PCI, which I could say 17 got 

779
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:06,760
born again last night at PCI, 
but also Pastor also wanted me 

780
00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:10,360
to mention in Brazil, six got 
born again and three filled with

781
00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:14,960
the Holy Ghost, Amen. 
And we're seeing that happening 

782
00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:19,080
here among this body too. 
But this would be considered the

783
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:22,840
simple gift of prophecy. 
He's going to talk about PCI and

784
00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:25,920
Jesus is going to be magnified 
and glorified. 

785
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:28,320
Amen. 
Hallelujah. 

786
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:33,200
Glory to God. 
Well, last night, praise God, 

787
00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:37,520
Ernie and I, we were there 
ministering and I just had AI 

788
00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:40,000
just had two scriptures, didn't 
really know where I was going. 

789
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:42,480
I just had one word and that was
enough. 

790
00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:47,040
And during that moment, as was 
ministering and about humbleness

791
00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:50,840
and humbling stuff under the 
mighty hand of God, the man was 

792
00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:53,840
just engaging. 
And then just one, one moment it

793
00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:56,920
just clicked it just the spit of
the Lord just started kicking in

794
00:49:56,920 --> 00:50:01,320
so strong that he went a 
direction of jurisdiction. 

795
00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:03,840
And so obviously I'm in prison. 
So they understand what 

796
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:06,240
jurisdiction is. 
And, and in this moment, I just 

797
00:50:06,240 --> 00:50:09,840
remember that, that these men as
they were engaging and, and just

798
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:12,120
I said, you know what, if you 
don't have faith, you're not 

799
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:15,040
giving Christ jurisdiction of 
your life. 

800
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:16,920
And they're just engaging in 
this. 

801
00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:18,280
I'm like, this is not a 
religion. 

802
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:21,560
This is literally a government 
where God cannot touch your 

803
00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:23,240
life. 
He can't heal you, he can't save

804
00:50:23,240 --> 00:50:25,920
you, He can't deliver you. 
God wants to do something, but 

805
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:29,040
your faith allows God to have 
jurisdiction of your life, to 

806
00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:31,920
break everything that's on the 
inside of you. 

807
00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:34,800
Now remember, if you don't give 
God jurisdiction, you're done. 

808
00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:36,360
Forget about it. 
He can't touch you. 

809
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:39,160
So and I said if you don't 
believe in him, he can't touch 

810
00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:40,320
you. 
If you don't confess him, he 

811
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:42,760
can't touch you. 
So this whole religious service 

812
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:44,680
ain't going to do any good for 
you because you're thinking 

813
00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:47,600
religion. 
And if you leave here, if God 

814
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:50,640
for some reason open doors and 
your time and your sentences is 

815
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:53,440
finished and you're out and 
about and you still see Jesus, 

816
00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:56,040
religious Jesus, he ain't going 
to touch you because you still 

817
00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:58,760
have not given him jurisdiction 
over your life. 

818
00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:00,600
And so we're ministering this 
thing. 

819
00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:03,240
And my goodness, man, and these 
guys are grabbing hold of it. 

820
00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:07,440
And it's just that one moment I 
said, if you want God to have 

821
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:11,600
jurisdiction over your life, 
Hallelujah, I got to do this 

822
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:14,720
other preaching of your life. 
Amen. 

823
00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:18,040
As if you want the Lord Christ 
to have jurisdiction over your 

824
00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:20,040
life and be the Lord. 
Lord not save you. 

825
00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:24,040
Lord mean he owns you, He'll 
deliver you, He'll set you free,

826
00:51:24,240 --> 00:51:27,240
you'll belong to him. 
He now has jurisdiction over 

827
00:51:27,240 --> 00:51:30,600
your life, which means that when
he comes in, something has to 

828
00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:32,440
come out. 
Anyway. 

829
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:36,000
So the Long story short, yeah, 
you did this to me. 

830
00:51:37,240 --> 00:51:40,040
So exciting. 
So anyways, man, when they 

831
00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:50,160
raised their hand, I said 12345.
We counted 17 people, 17 people 

832
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:55,400
that said I'm done. 
I give him jurisdiction, He has 

833
00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:58,560
control of my, I gave him up. 
And man, we just praise the 

834
00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:01,400
Lord. 
This is something so simple of 

835
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:04,320
what the Lord is doing. 
I said you are now potentially, 

836
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:08,520
I said there are now people here
that are probably more free than

837
00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:13,000
those who are who are out here. 
And so anyways, the Lord did 

838
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:15,680
something great in their lives. 
You can see the difference in 

839
00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:17,360
them. 
They're shouting me, there are 

840
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:20,760
free people in prison. 
There's church service in 

841
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:23,160
prison. 
There's more church indeed than 

842
00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:25,560
in sometimes I have in here. 
I don't know why, I'm just 

843
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:27,600
saying the truth. 
And they say and I don't want to

844
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:29,360
get out, but I said I got to go.
I got to go. 

845
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:32,480
I can't, you know, stay here. 
But the Lord did some great 17 

846
00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:36,360
people gave Christ's 
jurisdiction over their life. 

847
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,520
Hallelujah. 
Hallelujah. 

848
00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:45,240
Thank you, Lord. 
That is a testimony of Jesus. 

849
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:49,400
That is a simple gift of 
prophecy and manifestation. 

850
00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:53,000
Was Jesus being glorified? 
Was he being magnified? 

851
00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:56,000
Did 17 people come into the 
Kingdom of God? 

852
00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:59,320
Yeah, we magnify the Lord 
because of that. 

853
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:02,000
And this is a simple gift of 
prophecy. 

854
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:06,720
Now let's move on to the gift of
tongues and interpretation of 

855
00:53:06,720 --> 00:53:09,680
tongues. 
So the Scripture talks about 

856
00:53:11,240 --> 00:53:15,640
diverse kinds of tongues or 
different kinds of tongues. 

857
00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:20,120
So different kinds of tongues is
supernatural utterance by the 

858
00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:23,680
Holy Spirit in languages never 
learned by the speaker, not 

859
00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:26,880
understood by the mind of the 
speaker, nor necessarily 

860
00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:29,800
understood by the hearer. 
So we will see. 

861
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,600
Let me just say this to you. 
You'll see a connection to all 

862
00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,800
the other gifts of the Spirit 
because of praying and tongues, 

863
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:38,800
but there's different kinds of 
tongues. 

864
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:41,640
So all everything that happens 
with tongues we've got to 

865
00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:45,680
understand because first 
Corinthians chapter 14 explains 

866
00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:49,440
it to us, the differences. 
And Brother Hagin made a a 

867
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:52,040
comment that I wanted to read. 
He said the more I pray and 

868
00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:55,360
worship in tongues, the more 
manifestations of the other 

869
00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:59,360
gifts of the Spirit I have. 
The less I do, the less 

870
00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:03,200
manifestations I have. 
Speaking in tongues is the door 

871
00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:06,280
into all the rest of the gifts 
of the Spirit. 

872
00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:09,720
You cannot live, and I want to 
say this to you, cannot live a 

873
00:54:09,720 --> 00:54:12,360
spirit filled life and not ever 
have the gifts of the Spirit 

874
00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:16,920
manifestation in this last day 
revival. 

875
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:21,360
We've got to be fluent and 
understand how to flow with Him 

876
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:26,440
and how to yield to him. 
Mark chapter 1617 says, and 

877
00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:30,880
these signs shall follow them 
that would believe in my name. 

878
00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:34,640
They will cast out devils, and 
they shall speak with new 

879
00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:38,600
tongues. 
Tongues is a supernatural sign. 

880
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:42,680
Jesus said that tongues would be
a sign that will follow 

881
00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:45,360
believers and we should all 
speak with tongues. 

882
00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:48,680
Now let me explain to you the 
three different ways tongues can

883
00:54:48,680 --> 00:54:50,960
operate. 
Tongues can be a sign. 

884
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:56,040
Acts chapter 2 was a sign 
tongues were given as a sign of 

885
00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:59,280
a new dispensation the Holy 
Ghost coming upon. 

886
00:54:59,440 --> 00:55:03,280
And tongues can be a sign for an
unbeliever in the scripture 

887
00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:08,480
talks about that tongues can 
also be a ministry tongue, which

888
00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:12,320
is a tongue and interpretation 
that is given equal to the gift 

889
00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:15,600
of prophecy for the edification 
of the body. 

890
00:55:16,240 --> 00:55:19,440
And then tongues is also for 
personal use. 

891
00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:23,240
And you need to understand the 
difference because people take 

892
00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:26,560
the scripture out of context. 
Should all speak with tongues? 

893
00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:30,880
No, what's it talking about? 
That's talking about a tongue 

894
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:33,800
and interpretation of tongue 
that's going to be given in 

895
00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:36,960
front of the church. 
It's not talking about your 

896
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:40,400
personal tongue, because if it 
was, why did Paul say I pray in 

897
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:44,680
tongues more than you all? 
So you got to understand the 

898
00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:47,920
scripture and know the 
difference. 1st Corinthians 14 

899
00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:53,240
two says for he who speaks in a 
tongue does not speak to men, 

900
00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:56,360
but to God, for no one 
understands him. 

901
00:55:56,360 --> 00:55:59,600
However, in the Spirit he speaks
mysteries. 

902
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:03,040
He who speaks in a tongue 
edifies himself. 

903
00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:06,280
What is this? 
A personal tongue edifies 

904
00:56:06,280 --> 00:56:10,400
himself, but he who prophecies 
edifies the Church. 

905
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:15,720
Verse 5, I wish you all spoke 
with tongues, but even more that

906
00:56:15,720 --> 00:56:20,120
you prophesied, For he 
prophesizes greater than he who 

907
00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:24,000
speaks with tongues, unless 
indeed he interprets that the 

908
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:28,000
church may receive edification. 
So here is talking about if it's

909
00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:31,440
going to be a ministry tongue, 
it has to be interpreted. 

910
00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:37,120
I cannot get up here and give a 
tongue that is clearly for the 

911
00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:39,680
body and there not be an 
interpretation. 

912
00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:43,600
But it does not mean that you're
not going to walk in this church

913
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:46,840
and you're not going to hear us 
pray in tongues at moments. 

914
00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:49,720
But you know the difference. 
If there's a tongue given to the

915
00:56:49,720 --> 00:56:53,840
church, it's going to be clear, 
it's going to be bold, it's 

916
00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:57,800
going to be out loud so that the
the church will know there's a 

917
00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,280
tongue and interpretation 
coming. 

918
00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:03,200
Pay attention. 
But it doesn't mean you might 

919
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:06,360
not hear us up here praying or 
hear somebody in the seat 

920
00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:08,760
praying in tongues. 
And that tongue does not need to

921
00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:12,960
be interpreted. 
That is your personal tongue and

922
00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:16,160
you need that. 
The Bible says in Jude, 

923
00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:21,320
brethren, build yourself up in 
your most holy faith by praying 

924
00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:25,120
in the Spirit. 
This is how you stay built up. 

925
00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:29,280
It's like you can sing in the 
Spirit, you can talk in the 

926
00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:32,160
Spirit, pray in the Spirit, you 
can sing with your 

927
00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:34,400
understanding, you can sing in 
the Spirit. 

928
00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:37,360
You can do all of those things, 
but you need to be praying in 

929
00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:40,120
tongues. 
You need to be doing that. 

930
00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:43,480
So the last one is 
interpretation of tongues. 

931
00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:48,880
The interpretation of tongues is
the supernatural showing forth 

932
00:57:48,880 --> 00:57:53,320
by the Spirit the meaning of an 
utterance in other tongues. 

933
00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:57,560
So if I was to give a tongue, 
then there has to be an 

934
00:57:57,560 --> 00:58:00,840
interpretation, and an 
interpretation is not going to 

935
00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:05,080
happen unless there's a tongue. 
Otherwise, it's just the gift of

936
00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:10,200
prophecy. 
OK, so this can be public or 

937
00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:12,560
private. 
You could have a tongue in your 

938
00:58:12,560 --> 00:58:16,760
personal life that that the Lord
could interpret for you. 

939
00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:21,120
You could be in a private prayer
time, just you and the Lord and 

940
00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:22,760
you. 
You have function that that 

941
00:58:22,760 --> 00:58:25,600
needs interpretation and the 
Holy Ghost is right there to 

942
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:29,880
interpret that for you. 
But in public always because 

943
00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:32,760
it'll be a sign for the 
unbeliever and it could be a 

944
00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:37,040
word of, of exhortation for the 
body always has to be an 

945
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:40,560
interpretation. 
Now a public example is first 

946
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:45,200
Corinthians 12/30. 
It says do all have gifts, do 

947
00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:49,720
all speak with tongues, do all 
interpret, but earnestly desire 

948
00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:52,200
the best gifts. 
And yet I show you a more 

949
00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:54,760
excellent way. 
So he's saying not everybody 

950
00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:58,680
should get up here and give a 
tongue, not everybody should 

951
00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:02,640
come up here and prophecy. 
Not everybody can come up here 

952
00:59:02,640 --> 00:59:06,760
and give a word of wisdom or a 
word of knowledge decently and 

953
00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:09,680
in order. 
But privately, First Corinthians

954
00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:15,080
1418 says I thank my God I speak
with tongues more than you all. 

955
00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:21,320
Yet yet in the church, I would 
rather speak 5 words with my 

956
00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:26,480
understanding that I may teach 
others also than 10,000 words in

957
00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:30,080
a tongue. 
So you understand this, these 

958
00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:35,000
gifts of inspiration are mainly 
going to operate here. 

959
00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:40,080
Prophecy, tongues and 
interpretation of tongues and 

960
00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:42,520
you're going to see it and it's 
not always going to be 

961
00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:45,560
announced. 
Pastor Mike, when he came up and

962
00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:48,960
gave us a word of exhortation, 
that simple gift of prophecy 

963
00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:54,840
didn't say that was prophecy. 
It's not going to be something 

964
00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:59,400
that's announced, although for 
teaching purposes, we're 

965
00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:02,440
teaching it. 
We're explaining it and coming 

966
01:00:02,440 --> 01:00:05,480
up here and saying that was the 
gift of prophecy. 

967
01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:08,840
Trenisha coming up, that was a 
word of knowledge. 

968
01:00:09,200 --> 01:00:14,520
God is teaching us. 
God is showing us these things 

969
01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:19,000
so that we can operate in them. 
Listen, we live in the latter 

970
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:20,120
rain. 
You know that. 

971
01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:27,480
We live in the last days. 
We live in the outpouring of the

972
01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:31,080
Holy Ghost. 
First Corinthians chapter 14 

973
01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:36,120
says banned. 
You can come pursue love and 

974
01:00:36,120 --> 01:00:42,400
seek earnestly the spiritual 
things and rather that you may 

975
01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:48,320
prophecy, pursue love. 
And I encourage you and exhort 

976
01:00:48,320 --> 01:00:52,520
you, as we've taught all nine of
these gifts and manifestations 

977
01:00:52,520 --> 01:00:56,680
of the Spirit, that you 
understand that in this church 

978
01:00:56,680 --> 01:01:01,360
and in life, those things need 
to be done decently and in 

979
01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:03,480
order. 
And it has to be. 

980
01:01:04,120 --> 01:01:08,440
It has to be backed by love. 
Love has to be your foundation. 

981
01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:14,640
You cannot want to get up here 
and magnify yourself or think 

982
01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:18,680
that you're super spiritual or 
think, look what God did for me.

983
01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:24,640
And that's why I caution you, if
you ever do come up and give a 

984
01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:28,800
word or a tongue or 
interpretation or, or operate in

985
01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:32,880
any of the gifts of the Spirit, 
that you walk off this platform 

986
01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:38,400
and you leave it right there 
that you walk off of here and 

987
01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:43,240
you say, God, that was you. 
And I thank you, Lord, that the 

988
01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:47,360
people were lifted up, that the 
people were encouraged, the 

989
01:01:47,360 --> 01:01:50,240
people were edified. 
And I won't speak another word 

990
01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:54,720
about it. 
And if we take that position as 

991
01:01:54,720 --> 01:02:01,120
a body and in the right kind of 
boldness and humility, I believe

992
01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:08,360
God wants to use us mightily. 
God is opening so many doors in 

993
01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:11,920
this community and outside of 
this community. 

994
01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:17,760
And we, when we go to these 
things, when we enter into these

995
01:02:17,760 --> 01:02:22,960
events, whether it be here or 
outside of here, we need to be 

996
01:02:22,960 --> 01:02:27,000
full of the word and yielded to 
the Holy Ghost. 

997
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:29,680
And I want to encourage you when
you're doing things to say, 

998
01:02:29,680 --> 01:02:35,040
Lord, I yield myself to you and 
God, I earnestly desire 

999
01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:39,480
spiritual gifts. 
Lord, I covet them. 

1000
01:02:39,480 --> 01:02:44,800
If you desire to move in a gift 
of the Spirit, I'm yielded to 

1001
01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:47,200
it. 
I'm ready for it. 

1002
01:02:47,920 --> 01:02:53,320
There's no place for pride. 
There's no place for self 

1003
01:02:53,320 --> 01:02:58,520
seeking. 
But I believe God wants us to be

1004
01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:05,600
a body that moves in the 
supernatural, that moves in the 

1005
01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:08,480
gifts of the spirit. 
And let me say this to you, 

1006
01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:12,160
spiritual things are spiritually
discerned. 

1007
01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:18,160
They are spiritually discerned. 
And I say that to you because if

1008
01:03:18,160 --> 01:03:24,640
we're not in the Spirit and 
we're not strong in the Lord, we

1009
01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:28,800
don't have the the strong spirit
of the man that the Bible talks 

1010
01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:31,840
about, then we may not discern 
things properly. 

1011
01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:38,680
And God wants us to be 
spiritually full, spiritually in

1012
01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:40,800
tune. 
I want to read as we close 

1013
01:03:40,800 --> 01:03:46,720
Isaiah chapter 61, the Spirit of
the Lord God is upon me. 

1014
01:03:48,360 --> 01:03:52,560
You need to, you need to say it.
I want you to say it with me. 

1015
01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:57,040
The Spirit of the Lord God is 
upon me because the Lord has 

1016
01:03:57,040 --> 01:04:00,840
anointed me to preach good 
tidings to the poor. 

1017
01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:06,400
He sent me to heal the broken 
hearted, To proclaim liberty to 

1018
01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:10,160
the captives and the opening of 
the prison to those who are 

1019
01:04:10,160 --> 01:04:13,240
bound. 
To proclaim the acceptable year 

1020
01:04:13,240 --> 01:04:16,600
of the Lord and the day of 
vengeance of our God. 

1021
01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:22,160
To comfort all who mourn, and to
console those who mourn in Zion.

1022
01:04:22,760 --> 01:04:28,720
To give them beauty crashes the 
oil of joy for mourning, the 

1023
01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:33,440
garment of praise for the spirit
of heaviness, that they may be 

1024
01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:40,400
called trees of righteousness, 
The planting of the Lord, that 

1025
01:04:40,400 --> 01:04:45,880
He may be glorified, that He may
be glorified. 

1026
01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:48,800
Hallelujah. 
I want to end with First 

1027
01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:54,040
Corinthians 1412. 
Even so, you since you are 

1028
01:04:54,040 --> 01:04:59,320
zealous for spiritual gifts, let
it be for the edification of the

1029
01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:03,720
Church that you seek to excel.
