1 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:20,280 As I was studying this week, the Lord dropped this description of 2 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:21,760 my heart. It's not the title, it's not the 3 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,320 description for my sermon. It's just the introduction. 4 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:26,600 Amen. But John chapter 4, verse 34 5 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:31,320 through 38, and this I believe is a prophetic proclamation over 6 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:35,440 this house this morning, Amen. Got three people said Amen, it's 7 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:39,200 all good, come on now, prophetic proclamation. 8 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:43,280 Jesus said, look at this. He said my nourishment comes 9 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:47,360 from doing the will of God who sent me and from finishing, 10 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:53,120 finishing his work. Declare with me, we are going to 11 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:57,240 finish. We are going to finish and I am 12 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,920 confident, just as Paul declared to the Church of Philippi in 13 00:00:59,920 --> 00:01:04,680 Philippians chapter 166. He said he who began a good 14 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,720 work, if he has begun a good work, it will be finished. 15 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:12,200 Amen. The he who began a good work in 16 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:17,800 you will continue his work until it is finally finished on the 17 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:22,120 day when Christ Jesus returns. Hallelujah. 18 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,360 What God is doing in this place is a good work, but it is not 19 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:31,200 yet finished. It is not yet finished. 20 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,080 We got much more to do Amen. And I'm here this morning to 21 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:38,600 deliver a prophetic utterance to this house that with that, what 22 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:43,160 God has begun in this place will continue. 23 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:45,560 This is so strange. I had to write my notes in 24 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:46,680 English. This is so good. 25 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,800 I finally made it on the in missions. 26 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,360 You know, where I, I, I, I'm so used to preaching in Portuguese 27 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:52,720 that now my sermons are in English. 28 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,640 I love that. That's so cool 'cause I usually 29 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,720 preach in Portuguese and now this is weird, but it's good. 30 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:58,840 Amen. He's not done. 31 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,600 He's got much more to do Amen. That what God has begun in this 32 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:07,440 place will continue until it is finished. 33 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,640 There is much more to be fulfilled until it's complete. 34 00:02:11,640 --> 00:02:14,160 And if it's not complete, it's not complete. 35 00:02:14,640 --> 00:02:18,200 If it's not abounding, if it's not overflowing, if it's not 36 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,600 exceedingly good, it's not done yet. 37 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,960 Hallelujah. So we have much more to do. 38 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,760 Jesus continues saying back there in John, he says, you know 39 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,360 the saying and the disciples are like what? 40 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,320 I don't know what you're saying. You know the saying. 41 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:41,480 Four months between planting in harvest, but I say he's like you 42 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,560 got you got a perspective, a natural linear perspective. 43 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,280 But but let me help you see how I see. 44 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,040 He says, you say it's supposed to be like this in four months 45 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:55,480 or in four years. But God says, but I say Amen. 46 00:02:55,920 --> 00:03:02,480 But I say Jesus saying, but I say wake up, look around. 47 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:06,320 The fields are already right for harvest. 48 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,760 You better believe, Church, that the Master has already gone 49 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,200 before us and he has prepared the fields. 50 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,640 In those fields He has declared and he has spoken. 51 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:22,760 They are ready and they are ripe for harvest and for me. 52 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:26,080 And then this is something that stirs my hearts because I'm a 53 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,320 church planter. That's what I do. 54 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,520 I look for new territory. I say, where can we expand the 55 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,920 Kingdom of God? I'm not interested in if I've 56 00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:36,520 got enough money. I've got the king of kings, the 57 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,080 glorious, the glorious one, the alpha, the Omega, the beginning 58 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,680 and the end. I've got the one with the keys 59 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,680 and he says, I've given you the keys. 60 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,520 Hallelujah. Praise God. 61 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,680 Oh man, I'm already sweating. I got sweat coming down my back. 62 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:52,600 This is good. You know what's good? 63 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,360 When the pastor, when the preacher's sweating, right? 64 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,920 Hallelujah. I'm not interested. 65 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,240 I'm not trying to quantify how it's going to happen. 66 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,520 He says you've got a perspective, but I've got a 67 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,880 different perspective. You say 4 months or four years, 68 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,280 but I say wake up, look around. The fields are already already 69 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,279 right for harvest. Now, I've got a lot of critics 70 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:18,880 in my. I have so many critics in my 71 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,480 life. So many people, they come up to 72 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,160 me. I call them critical Christians. 73 00:04:23,840 --> 00:04:26,760 They're more carnal than they are critical, but pretty much 74 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,240 the same thing. And they always say to me, yeah, 75 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:36,640 well, Joshua, you know, is one more church really necessary? 76 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,360 Is I'm like, you better shut your mouth. 77 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:41,280 I don't care what you have to say. 78 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:46,640 There is one more church really necessary by God. 79 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,840 It is because he didn't say the field is ready. 80 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:55,720 He said the fields are ready. There are many fields and many 81 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,920 places that anchor faith has yet not reached. 82 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:04,040 But all the master is declaring this morning, Oh, wake up and 83 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:12,160 look and see Woo Marreda Sovre, the Ecoto romantic J And I'm not 84 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,120 just speaking to some congregation. 85 00:05:14,280 --> 00:05:17,400 I'm speaking to the epicenter. I'm speaking to the, the, the 86 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:22,160 Saji, the mother church, the central church that will do 87 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,720 great and marvelous things. And I'm telling you, there is a 88 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,640 blessing that's about to pour in this house. 89 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,640 And every single one of you, you better raise your hands and say, 90 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:34,200 God, I want to be a recipient of that blessing, but I also want 91 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:38,440 to be a contributor and not merely a consumer of the 92 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:42,480 blessings of the Lord so that expansion can go forth and the 93 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:46,080 Kingdom can be advanced and we can usher in the return of the 94 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:53,720 Lord Jesus Christ. Oh, my God, I've never preached 95 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,000 a church in the America that feels like my church. 96 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,120 This is good. I like that He didn't say the 97 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,720 field is ready. I'm gonna scream at you all 98 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:02,360 morning. OK. 99 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:03,760 So you just better be ready. Amen. 100 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:06,400 The field. He didn't say the field is 101 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,760 ready. He said the fields. 102 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:14,400 The fields are ready. We serve a God of the great 103 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:20,200 expansion. He is a God of the manifestation 104 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:24,040 of multiplication. He loves multiplication. 105 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,040 Kingdom expansion does not intimidate God. 106 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:35,240 In fact, it pleases God. You better hook your faith up 107 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,280 this morning to His perspective. Amen. 108 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,000 Because the way that God sees is far greater than any critical 109 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,480 Christian spouting off their carnal opinion, saying, well, I 110 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,360 don't OK with that. I don't, I don't think that's 111 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:46,880 necessary. Well, I don't think your 112 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,800 attitude is necessary. I think you need to just shut 113 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,600 your mouth and let me crossover and you can stay on this side if 114 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,640 you want to stay. Oh, get a little spicy. 115 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,920 Look around. He continues saying the 116 00:06:59,920 --> 00:07:02,240 harvesters are paid good wages and the fruit they harvest is 117 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:08,240 people brought to eternal life. What joy re Masisha? 118 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:14,680 What joy awaits both the planter and the harvester alike? 119 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,440 Meal deals Dussell. That wasn't tongues, that was 120 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,520 Portuguese, Amen. Meal deals Dussell Deals E 121 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,040 bones. That's Portuguese too, just to 122 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,360 let you know. I said, Oh my God in heaven, he 123 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:29,080 is good, Amen. What joy awaits you, Church? 124 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:33,360 What joy awaits you, Apostle? What joy awaits you, Apostola? 125 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:38,240 What joy awaits you, Church? There is a great joy. 126 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:44,840 There's a great joy when we look out upon the harvest by faith 127 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:49,120 and say, what is that? I can see that, I can see that. 128 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,320 I can see that. Apostle, you might want to 129 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,000 change igniting cities. I think that might be a better 130 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,760 phrase. What's the second part in? 131 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:05,280 No, what's the first part? Ignite city or cities impact 132 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:07,480 nations. What's the third part? 133 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:14,440 Influenced the world nation, right? 134 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,160 You're talking about this nation might be nations. 135 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,080 Amen. We got to put some plural in 136 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:21,560 that vision. I'm not saying change of vision, 137 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:25,800 but but God says cities, God is saying nations, God is saying 138 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,520 the world anchor faith has been called for much more. 139 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,280 And you, you got to get come on, I'm here to make you a little 140 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,320 uncomfortable. We got to we got to stir 141 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:40,640 ourselves up out of out of comfortability and recognize why 142 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,760 are we here as a church. God has called us to do much 143 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:47,360 more. And there might be seasons where 144 00:08:47,680 --> 00:08:50,960 there's a pruning that occurs in the little trimming here. 145 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,720 And we've experienced that many times. 146 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,280 Today we have 15 locations. We're reaching thousands every 147 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,400 single week. Praise God Almighty, the man. 148 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:03,440 We went through seasons of trials and tribulations. 149 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,040 We had to deal with Jezebel spirits. 150 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,520 We had to deal with demons. We had to deal with offended 151 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:09,560 people. We had to deal with people 152 00:09:09,560 --> 00:09:10,680 saying I didn't really like what you doing. 153 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,880 We had to be. We had so much opposition. 154 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:16,920 We'll write this down, man, write this down. 155 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:18,200 This is good. This is from God right here. 156 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,800 If there is a barrier, it just means there's a blessing on the 157 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,560 other side of it. Every barrier I have faced in my 158 00:09:25,560 --> 00:09:28,720 life, there is a greater blessing on the other side of 159 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,000 that barrier. And these barriers come in 160 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,360 different seasons. And I'm not a professional. 161 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:36,880 Your apostles have way more experience than I do in the 162 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,120 ministry. But one thing I have learned 163 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,520 throughout the the many years of ministry, 11 years of ministry 164 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:47,200 is that man Satan hates you and he hates me. 165 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,480 The enemy has come to steal, kill and destroy his number one 166 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:57,400 focus and drive is to RIP faith from you or try to take away 167 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:02,280 from you or rob you or get you in a negative confession or 168 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,920 saying what I'm trying to get it in in English here translation 169 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,200 help me baby get it. What am I trying to say? 170 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:14,240 She doesn't know cuz she's not listening, trying to call a 171 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:18,600 Contra Bukia Palavagis, speak against what the word says. 172 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,760 He is your adversary. He ain't your friend and he 173 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:29,080 wants to steal from you, kill from you, destroy you, barriers 174 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,200 that come in your life. But glory to God, there's always 175 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,000 a blessing on this either side. And this morning, what I want to 176 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,800 do the next three hours I have with you. 177 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,680 Amen. There's no time. 178 00:10:39,680 --> 00:10:40,880 So I can just preach as long as I want to. 179 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,200 I'm just kidding. Actually, I timed your pastors 180 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,360 when they were in our church at a little stopwatch, and I was 181 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:47,960 like, OK, that's how long I'm gonna preach in their church. 182 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:52,840 I'm just kidding. No, I'm just kidding. 183 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:53,760 Amen. It's Uncle Migo. 184 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,560 Are you with me still? I can hear heaven's declaring. 185 00:10:57,560 --> 00:10:59,320 I I it's difficult to preach at this church. 186 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,040 I there's so much that God is saying. 187 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:02,760 I don't know how you preach, apostle. 188 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:07,440 It's like heaven is open in this place. 189 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,560 Hallelujah. I know it's a pole behind me, 190 00:11:14,560 --> 00:11:16,000 but it feels like Jesus. You know what I'm saying? 191 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,000 How do you preach in this? This is really hard. 192 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,600 Oh, don't preach it. Don't speak in tongues, brother. 193 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:31,080 I'm gonna get distracted. We start prophesying over here. 194 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:33,520 OK, so focus on my notes. Here we go. 195 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:40,120 I can hear heaven declaring. Come on, Saints and sons, come 196 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,360 on, Saints and sons, there's much more to do. 197 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,640 Come on. There are mighty barriers, but 198 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,920 there are greater blessings on the other side. 199 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:54,280 And the title of my message this morning, the Lord gave it to me 200 00:11:54,680 --> 00:11:56,640 the other night. He said, Josh, I want you to 201 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,960 teach him about grit, how to get grit, or how to have grit. 202 00:11:59,960 --> 00:12:02,200 I don't know if that's right. Not grits, but grit. 203 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:06,160 Amen. And he said this, no grits, no 204 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,800 glory. Start with me now. 205 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:14,880 No grits, no glory. Say with me, no grits, no glory. 206 00:12:15,560 --> 00:12:17,480 I'm gonna teach you how to fight the fight of faith, Amen. 207 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,920 I know your faith people, but sometimes a brother has to come 208 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:23,520 in and just kind of stir you up a little bit. 209 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:27,080 Amen. Apostle Earl, Apostle Marcy came 210 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,160 to our church, preached the same messages that I've been 211 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:30,720 preaching forever, but the people finally got it. 212 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,560 I don't understand what's up with that. 213 00:12:32,560 --> 00:12:35,200 They're like, Oh my gosh, I've never heard of this Kingdom 214 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:36,160 message. I'm like, I've been preaching 215 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:41,600 this for years, but a brother will come in just to stir your 216 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:42,400 faith. Amen. 217 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,040 Hallelujah, glory. Let me just jump ahead here. 218 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,880 Go to first Timothy chapter 6, verse 12. 219 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,800 No grit, no glory. That's what we're going to call 220 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,200 it this morning. No grits, no glory. 221 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,080 And I promise you I won't keep you all day. 222 00:12:56,200 --> 00:13:01,640 First Timothy chapter 6 verse 12, Paul says this Hallelujah 223 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:08,680 fight, the good fights of faith. Is that right? 224 00:13:08,680 --> 00:13:12,360 Is that the right Scripture fights, say fights, the good 225 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:17,840 fights of faith. Now some translations say the 226 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,840 true faith. I like that. 227 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:24,880 The true faith, which means there is faith that is true and 228 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:29,680 then there is fraudulent faith. There is faith that is true that 229 00:13:29,680 --> 00:13:34,760 keeps holding on to the promises of God regardless of what it 230 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:37,400 looks like. But there is fraudulent faith 231 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:41,840 that when trials and tribulations come, those people 232 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:47,280 run from the fight. Oh, pastor, I'm with you. 233 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,280 I'm we're together in this thing. 234 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,280 And then when you start preaching messages that 235 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,000 challenge them, they're like the first persons out the door, 236 00:13:54,680 --> 00:13:58,120 first people out the door. But he says, fight the good 237 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,080 fight of faith or fight the good fight for the true faith. 238 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,760 Hold tightly. Another translation says, or lay 239 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:06,440 hold. I like that, 'cause we don't 240 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,400 have that translation in Portuguese. 241 00:14:08,560 --> 00:14:16,080 Lay Holt, take possession. Hold tightly on to that thing, 242 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:20,320 to eternal life to which you were summoned and for which you 243 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:25,280 confessed the good confession of faith before many witnesses. 244 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,720 Now, again, I know you know faith, and this might seem 245 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:31,800 elementary, but it is very important for what I am here to 246 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:32,440 do. Amen. 247 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,400 Now, I don't have money. I am not a multimillionaire. 248 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,440 Well, I'm a dominionaire. That's what I'm Amen. 249 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,200 That message changed my life. Amen. 250 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:42,720 I'll never forget that camp meeting. 251 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,200 I was sitting way in the back with her and I was like, who is 252 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,480 this guy? I didn't know who you are. 253 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:50,400 Like who's this guy? And he starts preaching, I'm 254 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:55,920 like, who is this guy? And then I, I, I saw his wife 255 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,040 and I was like, who are these people? 256 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:01,640 And all of a sudden I'm just weeping. 257 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,840 I'm like, oh, Jesus, praise God. I had never heard a message like 258 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,320 that in my life. Praise God. 259 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,640 So going back here, it's not like a negative confession here, 260 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,560 but I am not a millionaire in the sense of I'm not like I 261 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:17,400 don't have all the finances to help fund what God is going to 262 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,000 do here, but I've got faith, Amen. 263 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,360 I am rich in faith, Amen. And I'm going to connect my 264 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:26,120 faith to your faith and we're going to go to the other side. 265 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:30,480 I am a professional at believing God for things that look 266 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,360 impossible. I'm a professional at believing 267 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,800 and praying and putting my knees on the ground and saying God 268 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,480 Almighty. I will lay hold of that promise. 269 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:44,560 No grit, no glory, Hallelujah. Praise God. 270 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:45,920 OK, let's get back to the Scripture here. 271 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,840 Maybe just if I need to move along, just do one of these. 272 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:50,720 OK? To which you were summoned. 273 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,440 OK, which you confess the good confession of faith before many 274 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,760 witnesses. How many of you know that faith 275 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,920 is not a suggestion? Faith, according to Hebrews, 276 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,280 pleases God. And the Bible is clear that it 277 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:10,880 is the righteous that must live by faith, because without faith 278 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:15,640 it is impossible to please God. Faith not only pleases God, but 279 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:20,320 it also moves God. It moves God in your favor. 280 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:24,600 God wants to move for you. He wants to move for anchor 281 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,880 Faith Church. And so faith is absolutely 282 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,600 necessary. Hallelujah. 283 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:35,280 Not only is faith necessary, but faith also has a voice. 284 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:36,640 Amen. I'll just teach you some basic 285 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,040 principles here. But faith has a voice. 286 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,160 Faith speaks. Hallelujah. 287 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:45,360 Faith begins in the heart, but it ends in the mouth, right? 288 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:47,800 Faith begins here in in my heart. 289 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,600 I'll never forget when God called us to Brazil. 290 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:55,320 It was an inward knowing. It was God saying go now, but 291 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,480 eventually we had to get to a point to where the faith within 292 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,240 my heart, Amen, that was activated in my heart had to be 293 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:06,520 completed in my mouth and I had to begin to speak and to declare 294 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,800 what was in my heart, Amen. Every place we see in the Bible 295 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:16,200 where faith is described, it, it, it, it speaks about or it 296 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:20,520 says that faith speaks, it has a voice, it, it is influenced, 297 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:24,640 Hallelujah. It is motivated, is moved by our 298 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:25,800 mouth. Are you with me? 299 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:32,920 OK, I'm getting to a point here. Faith, we know, comes by hearing 300 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:36,680 and hearing by the word of Gods. It comes by hearing that 301 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:40,240 prophetic word, that anointed word that has the power to 302 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,360 transform. The Word of God is alive and 303 00:17:43,360 --> 00:17:44,520 active. It is dynamic. 304 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,040 These are just scriptures. You know these things. 305 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:47,880 It is alive, it is active as dynamic. 306 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,680 It is anointed. And when that word comes to my 307 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:56,800 ears, it's not only anointed, but it has the power to set me 308 00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:02,400 free, to heal me, but also to change and to help me get to the 309 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:06,640 other side, to change my perspective but also move me to 310 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,040 move with God. Amen. 311 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:10,240 Let me give you one more scripture. 312 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,520 We'll move forward here. Hebrews 11/6. 313 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,960 You could probably quote this Scripture, but it's, it's, it's 314 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,280 good to hear it again. But without faith, it is 315 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,120 impossible to walk with God. Please him. 316 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:24,200 For whoever comes near to God must believe that God exists and 317 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,920 that he is a rewarder of those who earnestly and diligently 318 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,240 seek him. So once again, faith is not 319 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,200 merely a suggestion. Faith is a commandment. 320 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:37,040 Walking by faith, but not just walking by faith, but also 321 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:42,040 fighting the good fight. There's a fight, Amen. 322 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,440 And I have learned in the many years of being on the mission 323 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:50,040 field and doing the work of the apostle, planting churches and 324 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:54,480 dealing with people, is that it requires a fight, but not a 325 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:57,520 fight with the people. Our fight is not according to 326 00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,760 the flesh and blood or it is not a fight of the flesh and blood, 327 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:01,240 but is what's the scripture in English? 328 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:06,840 Remind me is our weapons of warfare are not carnal, but they 329 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,640 are mighty and tearing down strongholds that our fight is 330 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,240 not against flesh and blood, but against every principality and 331 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,640 power of the air. Are you with me now? 332 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,640 So there is a fight, but glory to God, it is a good fight, 333 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,040 Amen. Matthew 77, let's just let's 334 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,120 move forward. I'm going to give you some 335 00:19:23,120 --> 00:19:26,160 scriptures lay some foundation that I want to speak a prophetic 336 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:27,080 word into your life. Amen. 337 00:19:27,360 --> 00:19:32,360 Matthew 77 reveals to us the results of a faith that is 338 00:19:32,360 --> 00:19:35,560 functional. It is a faith that speaks. 339 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,720 It is a faith that declares, OK, Jesus says this. 340 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,360 Keep on asking, and you might receive what you ask for. 341 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:44,960 If you if that's what your translation says, you've got 342 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,680 your Bible at the wrong place. OK, you might want to return 343 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,080 that at the Woo, woo. What's a woo? 344 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:50,320 Woo, woo, woo. What's Wawa? 345 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,160 I had never heard of Wawa. Yeah, yeah. 346 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:55,680 I went there today. I was like, this is like 347 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,520 QuikTrip. It's QuikTrip, but Wawa. 348 00:19:58,960 --> 00:19:59,800 Woo, woo. What's it called? 349 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,360 Wawa. That's a very interesting name 350 00:20:02,360 --> 00:20:04,480 for a a gas station. But if you bought your Bible at 351 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:05,720 Wawa, you might wanna take it back. 352 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:07,480 Amen. OK, because it says keep on 353 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,440 asking and you will receive what you ask for. 354 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:15,160 Faith has a voice. Faith is functional. 355 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,840 Faith declares Hallelujah. You got to get some grit in you. 356 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,320 Hey man, keep on seeking and you will find. 357 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,640 Keep on knocking in the door. We'll be open to you for 358 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,120 everyone who asks receives. Glory to God. 359 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:33,560 When I read that scripture, I was like, Oh my God Almighty, I 360 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,520 am everyone.

I've got grit. 399 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,120 I called Apostle Earl. We were in the car and we were 400 00:22:49,120 --> 00:22:50,240 talking. I was telling him Apostle man, 401 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,920 I'm feeling a little, I was a little sad and like a little we 402 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,360 were talking about this. I said, man, I'll post. 403 00:22:55,360 --> 00:22:57,080 I feel like I'm in a weird season right now. 404 00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,840 Everything seems like it's going great, but I'm just really 405 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:03,200 discouraged. I'm just really discouraged 406 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:04,640 right now. I feel like I don't feel like I 407 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,760 got faith anymore. I feel like I don't got the 408 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,760 faith that I had when I was like that crazy 22 year old. 409 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:13,520 Like I'm gonna take the nations. I feel like I've gotten 410 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:17,280 comfortable. After I hung up the phone, the 411 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:22,200 Lord told me no grit, no glory, no grit, no glory. 412 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,600 Sometimes you got to talk to the man of God to get a word from 413 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:25,240 God. Amen. 414 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,680 No grit, no glory. I was like, oh, that's good. 415 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,800 He said, Joshua, you got to get some grit in you again. 416 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,680 You got to get some grit. You got to get some grit. 417 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:37,560 You got to get some grit in you again, son, You got to. 418 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,800 I've got much to do, son. I've got much to do with you, 419 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:42,520 son. Sons and daughters, I've got 420 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:48,440 much to do with you. But what I have provided in 421 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:52,080 grace must be, oh, what's that? What? 422 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:59,680 I wrote it down right here. What has been provided to you by 423 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,680 Grace will have to be acquired by faith. 424 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:06,400 Now, I didn't say that. That was Keith Moore. 425 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:07,440 Amen. I love Keith Moore. 426 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:11,960 Give him some credit. Keith Moore said, He said what 427 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:16,120 must, what has been provided to me by grace will have to be 428 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,600 acquired by me by faith. Tyson, does that make sense? 429 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:24,200 God provides the grace, but we take possession by faith. 430 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,120 That's in salvation or that's in any aspect of the Kingdom. 431 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:34,120 I must take hold of it by faith. I must have a grit in me to say 432 00:24:34,120 --> 00:24:38,360 if God said it, I believe it and that settles it in my heart. 433 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:41,200 That's Pastor Hagen. That's my pastor. 434 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:46,280 If God said it, not believing not settles in my house. 435 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,280 Pastor Hagan, old country. I love that. 436 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,000 If God said it, I believe it. That settles in my heart and I'm 437 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,760 going to take hold of that. And then I'm going to apply my 438 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,960 faith with a functional faith. I am going to ask, I'm going to 439 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,320 receive or I'm going to seek and I'm going to knock. 440 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:03,120 Amen. Sure. 441 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,040 Let me give you 3 points and we're going to go home. 442 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:10,160 Write this down. Three points, 3 points and I'm 443 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:14,440 not calling myself a actually, this is not me what I'm saying I 444 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,040 but when I say the prophet, I'm actually speaking about your, 445 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:18,920 your apostle here in this moment. 446 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,720 Amen. As I'm going to say this, that 447 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:27,520 when the prophet comes to throw a vision upon you, you better 448 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,800 take hold of it and run with that vision. 449 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,960 Are you with me? And you have to get a grit in 450 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:39,920 you, a faith in you that takes hold or lays hold of that 451 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,040 prophetic words. Are you with me? 452 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:51,200 You have to dig into it. Three things have to happen when 453 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,280 the prophet comes to throw his mantle or his vision upon you. 454 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,400 Three things. Number one, write this down. 455 00:25:57,440 --> 00:25:58,800 It's not three things that need to happen. 456 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:02,600 I don't even know how to articulate this, but my just 457 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,040 write it down. My behavior will block my 458 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:07,440 blessing. That's the first point. 459 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:12,760 If I don't change my behaviour, the blessing will be blocked. 460 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:16,960 The prophet can come and he can declare and he can, he can speak 461 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:20,800 about a vision, but if your behaviour is not aligned to the 462 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:24,320 Kingdom perspective, he will not get you a blessing. 463 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:30,360 The blessings of God are always yes and Amen in Christ Jesus, 464 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,440 but we have to take possession of those blessings. 465 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:35,640 We have to lay hold of those blessings. 466 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,720 We have to act in faith to receive those blessings. 467 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,840 But behavior, and I've, I've seen this so many times when it 468 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,560 comes to church planting and church projects and, and moving 469 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:51,840 forward is that if people's behavior is not aligned with 470 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:55,200 God's perspective, it won't happen. 471 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:02,160 It won't happen. Now, I'm not saying, I think and 472 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:06,120 by the Spirit, there are sometimes these and even maybe 473 00:27:06,120 --> 00:27:09,760 here, if I may be so bold to say, there's sometimes not, 474 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,120 there might be behaviors and the behavior is just kind of 475 00:27:13,120 --> 00:27:14,680 comfortable, right? Or just some kind of 476 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:18,200 comfortable. I'm tired of doing projects. 477 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:21,480 I'm I'm tired of it, You know, I just want to sit and receive and 478 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,000 that's good and that's, that's OK. 479 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,680 But man, when God is moving, you have to move with God. 480 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:31,520 And so the Lord says to you with these kind of botched 3 points, 481 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,320 but I believe they're prophetic and they're good that my that 482 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,880 your behavior will block your blessings. 483 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:42,480 You have to how do you say modify, modify or adjust your 484 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:45,160 behavior this morning? Are you with me? 485 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,680 You have to modify your behavior. 486 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,120 The only way to get great in you to get the glory is if your 487 00:27:52,120 --> 00:27:54,720 behavior is appropriate. Are you with me now? 488 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:57,400 And I'll explain this here in just a second. 489 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,160 But let me give you the points. And we're going to read a story, 490 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,280 and then we're going to finish the second point. 491 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:02,920 And this will make more sense in just a moment. 492 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:07,080 My repentance will restore my rights. 493 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,360 OK, So behavior is critical, but also repentance too. 494 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:16,600 Repentance, repentance, repentance, repentance will 495 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,400 restore your right #3 this is a miracle. 496 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,080 I've never been able to give three points in a sermon. 497 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:22,440 I'm always say, like, write this down. 498 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,200 I never get to it. But just going to give them all 499 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,400 to you at the beginning. My persistence provokes my 500 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,280 promise. Write it down. 501 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:31,480 My persistence provokes my promise. 502 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,360 So #1 there's going to be a test afterwards. 503 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:39,320 Number one, my behavior blocks my blessing #2 my, my repentance 504 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:43,080 restores my right, my right to take hold of the blessing, 505 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,400 right? My right to say, OK, Lord, 506 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:47,320 please forgive me. I was in doubt. 507 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,520 I was, I was in fear. So Lord, please forgive me. 508 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,840 The Lord says, my grace and my grace is sufficient for you. 509 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,800 Amen. He's already forgiven us, but 510 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,320 it's good for the Saint to repent. 511 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:02,040 It's good for us to come to the altar and say, Lord, forgive me. 512 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,520 Not that I'm trying to win something from God, but it 513 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,160 changes something in me. It humbles me. 514 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,000 God says humble yourselves before the hand of the Almighty 515 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,000 God and he will lift you up in due time. 516 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,880 OK? And my persistence provokes my 517 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:19,800 promise. Open your Bibles and we're gonna 518 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:23,480 finish here first. Kings chapter 19, verse 19. 519 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,000 I hope that you got something this morning. 520 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,400 I pray that you got something. I pray that you're getting 521 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:29,560 something. I pray that you're getting 522 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:33,480 something here first. Kings 1919 in Brazil. 523 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:36,440 We'll preach for like 2-3 hours. It's crazy, but I don't want to 524 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,280 overstay. I want Pastor Apostle to invite 525 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,120 me back. So I gotta wrap this mother up. 526 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:45,000 OK, so three hours, four hours. But today is going to be a 527 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:46,920 quickie. OK, but here we go first. 528 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:48,400 Actually, how long have I been preaching? 529 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:49,600 Yeah, 36 minutes. That's good. 530 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:53,320 First, Kings chapter 1919, go to your Bibles there. 531 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,200 Let's go. I want to read a story here, 532 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,760 this story after the Lord spoke to me and said no grit, no 533 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:00,720 glory, the Lord brought me to this scripture and he said, 534 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:04,280 Joshua, I want you, I want you to teach the people there at 535 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,600 anchor, and I want you to be taught, son, about how to get 536 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,880 your grit back. But grit can only come if your 537 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,840 behavior is correct, if there's repentance and if there's 538 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:16,560 persistence. OK, so let's read the story here 539 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:17,840 first. Kings, 1919. 540 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:22,440 So Elijah went and found Elijah, son of I'm not a good. 541 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:23,480 What is that? Shafat. 542 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:25,800 Yeah, that's good. Sounds good, Shafat. 543 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,440 Plowing of fields. There were twelve teams of 544 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,160 oxygen in the field and Elijah was plowing with the 12 team. 545 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:35,760 Elijah went over to him and threw his mentor, his cloak upon 546 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,720 him, across his shoulders, and then he walked away. 547 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:42,720 I love the prophet Elijah. This guy was like, I don't care. 548 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,960 He he wasn't about performance. He's just like, I'm going to do 549 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,440 it and if this guy gets it, he's going to get it. 550 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:52,400 He throws it up on the the young man. 551 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:56,080 He walks away. Elijah left the oxen standing 552 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,800 there ran after the prophet Elijah and said to him first, 553 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,960 this, this is where he kind of went went wrong first. 554 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:10,080 When the word of God comes to you, be quick to obey. 555 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:15,240 When the prophetic word comes to you, be quick to obey. 556 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:19,880 Take lay hold of that word quickly so the enemy doesn't 557 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,720 come and rob your confidence. When God spoke to us to move to 558 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:27,840 Brazil, he said go now. The next day we sold everything. 559 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,240 We are ready to go. First let me go and kiss my 560 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:37,360 father and mother goodbye and then and then I will go with 561 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,080 you. Elijah responded. 562 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:43,160 Some translations say go back and but he says, oh what have I 563 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,040 done? This translation says, but think 564 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,400 about what I have done to you. Now I could be wrong and apostle 565 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,640 can correct me, but I feel like, and I could be wrong that the 566 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:54,680 prophet's a little irritated with this guy. 567 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:58,480 I could be wrong and he says, what have I done? 568 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:02,040 Go back and think about what I have just thrown the mantle upon 569 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,040 you and you're telling me that you got to get your affairs and 570 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,000 orders, even Jesus. This happened to Jesus once, 571 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,040 right? The man comes, I'm going to 572 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,360 follow you, but first let me go back and bury my father and he 573 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:16,360 said let the dead bury the dead. When the word comes to you that 574 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:22,160 advancement is nigh, you must be quick to respond. 575 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,920 You must get a grit in you and say, if God said it, I'm going 576 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,240 with God. Who? 577 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:35,200 Hallelujah. There are many believers who 578 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,640 will never experience the blessings of the Lord because 579 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:41,320 they are stuck behind a barrier called behavior. 580 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,880 Their behavior, God comes with his word. 581 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:47,240 They say, hey God, that sounds good, but give me a few moments 582 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:52,760 and then I'll do it. This prophet man, he was the 583 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:56,040 rainmaker, the fire starter, his cloak. 584 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,960 You could still smell the smoke. You could see the pieces of 585 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,440 blood from the prophets that have been laid, you know, kept 586 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:07,520 slain. I, I mean, the Mansell fell upon 587 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,760 the Chauvin. The kid looks at the Mansell. 588 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:13,600 He knows who this guy is, but didn't understand the weight of 589 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,000 it. His behavior blocked his 590 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:19,320 blessing. When apostle launches a vision 591 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,440 and that vision comes upon you, you better not say, well, when 592 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,000 it's convenient, then we'll go. You better say, yes, Sir, let's 593 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,640 go, let's go. Because if God said it to the 594 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,960 man of God, we're going, we're going, we're going, we're going, 595 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,920 we're going. OK, let's move forward here. 596 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,280 So Elijah, and this is the second point here, my repentance 597 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:39,160 restores my right. But listen to Joven. 598 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:42,200 The young man makes a quick adjustment in his heart, and we 599 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,680 see this. So Elijah returned to his ox and 600 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,320 slaughtered them. He used the wood from the plow 601 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,040 to build a fire to roast their flesh. 602 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,720 He passed around the meat to the townspeople, and they all ate. 603 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:55,520 Praise God. What a generous young man. 604 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:59,800 Then he went with Elijah as his assistant. 605 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,280 Are you going to go with God this morning? 606 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,440 Are you going to repent and say, Lord, forgive me for for, for 607 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,360 not being quick with my generosity. 608 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,400 Forgive me for not being quick with my faith. 609 00:34:11,679 --> 00:34:14,239 Forgive me for not being quick with my confession. 610 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,159 Forgive me, Lord, and I feel I'm not speaking to ever, but I'm 611 00:34:17,159 --> 00:34:18,600 speaking to a couple people here. 612 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,000 I can sense it in my spirit that you have been speaking 613 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,719 negatively against this project and you have been passing this 614 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:28,120 building and you have been saying in your heart, it's never 615 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:32,199 going to happen. Is don't raise your hand because 616 00:34:32,199 --> 00:34:36,040 we're going to stone you. If that's, I'm just kidding, is 617 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:39,920 never going to happen is that an apostle gets up and he says this 618 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:43,880 and they're like, oh, here we go one more time, one more time, 619 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,400 one more day. Oh, we as the community of 620 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:52,159 people of believers must be in unity, must be in unity, must be 621 00:34:52,159 --> 00:34:56,520 of 1 faith, 1 baptism, 1 Spirit, one voice saying come on, we're 622 00:34:56,520 --> 00:35:00,680 going, we are moving, we're moving, I'm ready to go. 623 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:03,960 Amen. Repentance restores your rights 624 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:09,080 to take hold of the promise. Finally, Hallelujah. 625 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:13,040 Go to Second Kings chapter 2, one through 16. 626 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:16,040 As I said, my persistence provokes my blessing. 627 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,600 I've been teaching you about how to get some grit in you. 628 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,160 Amen. Starts first with your behavior 629 00:35:21,720 --> 00:35:24,240 #2 it starts second, it starts with repentance. 630 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:28,760 And 3rd, it's persistence. Persistence, persistence, 631 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:33,880 persistence, persistence. I may not be the most gifted 632 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:37,040 oratorial speaker. I might not be the most eloquent 633 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:40,480 speaker or the best plan, Sir, but I'll tell you this, I am 634 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,480 persistent. I am very persistent. 635 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:47,040 And I have learned persistence because the only way I'm get a 636 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:48,640 hold of my promise is with persistence. 637 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:52,440 And then when the Lord was about to take Elijah up to heaven in a 638 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,720 whirlwind, Elijah, Elijah and Elijah were travelling from 639 00:35:55,720 --> 00:35:58,560 Gilgal. And Elijah said to Elijah, stay 640 00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:02,200 here for Lord has told me to go to Bethel. 641 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,400 But Elijah and listen to the young man has changed his 642 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:06,960 behavior. Hallelujah. 643 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:09,840 Praise God. He has now walked with the man 644 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,600 of God. He has walked with the prophet. 645 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:15,920 He has learned from the prophet. Faith cometh by hearing and 646 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:19,000 hearing by the word of God. So the young boy has faith in 647 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,240 him. And now look at his confession. 648 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:23,800 It's not let me go back and get things in order. 649 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:28,040 He says, whoa. He says as surely as the Lord 650 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:34,720 lives and as you live, he says I'm never going to leave you. 651 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:38,000 I already had that that behavior in the past and it almost ruined 652 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,000 my blessing. But I'm not. 653 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,120 Wherever you go, I'm going. So if you're here, I'm here. 654 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,480 If you're there, I'm there. I'm going with you because 655 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,600 you're going with God. And wherever you go, I'm going. 656 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,640 Amen. Hallelujah. 657 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:55,960 Stay here. What you talking about? 658 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:59,040 I'm not going to stay here. I'm not going to miss my 659 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,600 opportunity. You've got something that I've 660 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,720 once I felt that anointing, I felt that vision. 661 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:06,960 I felt it upon me. It changed me. 662 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:08,960 It moved me and I wasn't ready for it. 663 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:11,840 But I'm ready for it now. I'm ready for. 664 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:15,000 He didn't tell the Prophet right away, but he says I'm not going 665 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:16,880 anywhere because you've got something. 666 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,880 They've got something I want. That's why I'm close to them. 667 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:22,760 When I met the Mac Cracker Barrel, I was like, these two 668 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:26,200 got something that I want and it's not money. 669 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,160 It's not it's not an opportunity to speak. 670 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,800 No, no, no. It's what they they have 671 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,480 something that I want. They're generals in the faith. 672 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:35,440 I'm a soldier. I'm gonna say wherever you go, 673 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:41,120 I'm going Hallelujah. I got I'm sorry, guys, I'm going 674 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:46,480 long here. I apologize as surely as the 675 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:48,920 Lord lives. So they went together to Bethel 676 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:53,320 and here comes the critical Christians, right? 677 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:55,320 OK. It was like, well, the prophets 678 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:56,800 were just share and share in their mind. 679 00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:58,480 And in my opinion, I don't think that they were. 680 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:01,840 Listen to how Elijah, Elijah responds and look at this. 681 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:04,440 Look at this. The group of prophets from 682 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:11,680 Bethel came to Elijah and asked him, don't you know, brother in 683 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:16,160 the Lord, the Lord is going to take your master today. 684 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:20,280 They're all walking together and they probably didn't talk like 685 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:23,160 that, but they're there. They're like, Hey, don't you 686 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:24,480 know? Don't you know, Don't you know? 687 00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:26,920 And Elijah's like, you better shut your mouth. 688 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:31,480 You don't think I know? I don't care because where he 689 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,120 goes, I go, and wherever he goes, he going up, I'm going up. 690 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,240 He says, look, he says, he says, of course I know. 691 00:38:38,240 --> 00:38:41,240 He, he may not really know. He's just probably saying it by 692 00:38:41,240 --> 00:38:42,120 faith. Maybe he does know. 693 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:44,520 Who knows? Of course I know, Elijah 694 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:48,400 answered. But be quiet about it in like 695 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:50,080 the 21st language. That's like, shut up. 696 00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:53,560 It wasn't just be quiet about it. 697 00:38:53,720 --> 00:38:56,560 It was shut up, brother. Shut your mouth. 698 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,760 Sometimes you got to tell those people who are saying, don't you 699 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,360 know? It's not, hey, don't you know? 700 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:06,440 Don't you know, don't you know, you're like, OK, yeah, just shut 701 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,480 your mouth, please. I don't care. 702 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,200 I don't care if the man of God said it. 703 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:18,560 I'm going with the man of God. OK, Let's finish up here then, 704 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:22,160 Elijah said to Elijah, second time here, stay here, for the 705 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:23,680 Lord has told me to go to Jericho. 706 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:28,640 But Elijah responded again. Surely I thought I already said 707 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:32,360 this to you, Sir. But as surely as in some of you 708 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:35,120 this morning need to come up to your apostles after cheer and 709 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,520 say as surely as the Lord, what's he say? 710 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:41,240 He says, he says as surely as the Lord lives and as you 711 00:39:41,240 --> 00:39:43,320 yourself live, I will never leave you. 712 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,200 I'm never going to leave you. I'm not going to leave you. 713 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,160 I'm not going to leave you. I'm not going to leave this 714 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,640 vision. They might go, but I'm not going 715 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,240 nowhere. They might go through the door, 716 00:39:55,240 --> 00:39:58,200 but I'm not going nowhere. I'm right here, right now and 717 00:39:58,200 --> 00:39:59,160 I'm ready. I'm ready. 718 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:08,000 I'm ready.

There will be many sons, and 721 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:19,680 many sons will rise up, and daughters who will rise up, and 722 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,120 who will come? And say, Apostle Apostola, 723 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:24,880 surely the Lord lives. I will not leave you. 724 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:29,960 And as they come and come, and many shall come, many shall come 725 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:35,040 from many places, shall come to this place, and they will sit at 726 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,000 your table.

And they will say unto you, not 729 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,400 that I am interested in your mantle, not that I'm interested 730 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,840 in in trying to get something from you. 731 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:57,480 But surely, as the Lord has said, or I was, I got to get 732 00:40:57,480 --> 00:40:59,000 that in my heart. I'm going to say that He's so. 733 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,120 It's different in Portuguese. He as surely as the Lord lives, 734 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:09,560 and as you live, the Lord lives forever, we will not leave you. 735 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:16,040 And as they come and come, and many shall come and sit at the 736 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:20,240 table, and the table shall be greater and expanding in great 737 00:41:20,240 --> 00:41:32,160 Profunji Dajji depth. Hallelujah. 738 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:35,040 I'm a I'm a prophecy in Portuguese. 739 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:43,120 It's it's the way I'm accustomed to do it and. 740 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:49,480 The table will be extended and many chairs will be placed at 741 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:53,480 the table, and many sons and daughters will come and sit at 742 00:41:53,480 --> 00:42:00,080 the table and they will not be interested in the meal that's 743 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:04,720 before them, but they will sit because they are sons and 744 00:42:04,720 --> 00:42:08,640 daughters. And of course the the meal 745 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:14,200 before them is important and crucial, but they come because 746 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:19,640 they desire community. They desire to be LED, they 747 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:25,560 desire to be stretched. And the Lord is saying the table 748 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:30,800 will be great. The table will start here and it 749 00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:35,440 will go to the other side of the world, and it will be a large 750 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:41,520 table and the Lord will do it and it will be supernatural. 751 00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:48,840 And He is the head at the head of the table, and you 2 are on 752 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:57,360 the other end, not just one, but both 2 sitting at the head, at 753 00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,880 one head. The head is Jesus, and at the 754 00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:03,320 foot of the apostles. And many sons and daughters will 755 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,240 sit at the table. And you'll be given to give 756 00:43:05,240 --> 00:43:10,600 instructions, divine instructions, divine 757 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:15,600 instructions. And. 758 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:23,680 That's the point. No, yes, you point. 759 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:27,440 This is the point the Lord is saying. 760 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:36,280 Quando, Corporal, when this body permits these two to enter. 761 00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:44,320 Into their divine calling others will then be able to enter into 762 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:49,440 their divine. And I see in my spirit, the 763 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:53,800 minute that they rise up, a mantle will descend. 764 00:43:53,800 --> 00:44:00,440 A mantle will come upon the shoulders of many young people, 765 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:03,560 many young people, many young. People. 766 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:09,400 And there will. Never be need. 767 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:14,640 There will. Never be a need for people for 768 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:16,880 the expansion. As sober principles. 769 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:23,640 It's not about principles. Natural principles it's. 770 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:25,680 About a divine calling. And. 771 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:28,200 The calling of. God is. 772 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:31,640 Upon you too, and the Lord is saying. 773 00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:35,520 Your. Time to rise up is now. 774 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:41,400 Do not be afraid, because God will say many. 775 00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:44,200 Many. Sons and daughters. 776 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,880 Moment and. Because you taught. 777 00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:52,760 Them not only.

Crucial of. 780 00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:01,960 Course food isn't. But when people come scandal 781 00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:05,280 seeking. Just for the food. 782 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:08,600 And. Not for the the location. 783 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:11,000 And the. The heart would be. 784 00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:13,800 When? They come by faith. 785 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,200 And.

I just sensed it in my spirit. 834 00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:16,920 They've crossed over. And the prophet says to the 835 00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:22,760 young man, tell me what I can do for you. 836 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:28,800 Persistence will enable you to lay hold of your promise. 837 00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:34,880 What can I do for you?

Once again the the young man 846 00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:12,800 must take possession. And they were walking along the 847 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,000 way, and suddenly a chair of fire appeared. 848 00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:18,600 Drawn by horses of fire. It drove between the two men, 849 00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:23,920 separating them. There will be people that will 850 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:30,160 stay to be planted in here and people to go to other places. 851 00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:34,720 Hallelujah.

You will take the hands. 906 00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:38,960 May not give them the same position they had before. 907 00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:41,280 I don't know. No, probably not a good idea. 908 00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:44,960 But USA, all is forgiven. Let us go. 909 00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:49,480 Get ready, Church. Get ready. 910 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:51,640 Get ready, Get ready. Amen. 911 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:55,720 No grit, no glory. No grit, no glory.
