1 00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:07,400 Thanks for checking out the anchor Faith. 2 00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:09,800 Message podcast from st. Augustine Florida. 3 00:00:10,300 --> 00:00:24,200 Now enjoy this message and I want to talk about praise We'll 4 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:29,800 talk about, praise praise has the same issue that we discussed 5 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:33,600 recently, when we talked about being led by the spirit are 6 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:39,900 being led by your soul. Okay, so, if you were not part 7 00:00:39,900 --> 00:00:42,500 of that series, what did I call that series adjustment? 8 00:00:42,500 --> 00:00:44,400 It's a must right. It's a must. 9 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,900 If you haven't heard that series, go online. 10 00:00:46,900 --> 00:00:50,000 It was three weeks. It's a must, you must worship 11 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,000 Him in spirit, and in truth, okay? 12 00:00:52,100 --> 00:00:53,800 And the word worship is not singing. 13 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,500 Although worship includes singing, We have this mindset 14 00:00:57,500 --> 00:01:01,200 that when we hear worship, we think of slow songs. 15 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,900 Okay. That's not worship worship by 16 00:01:05,099 --> 00:01:08,800 definition is obeying. What the king says, and that 17 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,500 doesn't have to be with the song, unless he's asking you to 18 00:01:11,500 --> 00:01:15,300 sing a slow one. At that time, then you would be 19 00:01:15,300 --> 00:01:20,300 worshipping him by obeying to sing a slow song, right? 20 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,800 But you're also worshiping him if he tells you to pay for 21 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:28,400 somebody's meal, That's worship. Its worship when you give 22 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:32,900 because he says, give right, it's worship when you forgive 23 00:01:33,300 --> 00:01:35,000 that's worship. Okay. 24 00:01:35,300 --> 00:01:38,500 But we've coined this phrase within the church body. 25 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:43,500 Praise and so it automatically praises the fast stuff, worships 26 00:01:43,500 --> 00:01:47,100 the slow stuff. And that is not the case. 27 00:01:47,300 --> 00:01:52,300 Praise is something we do with our mouths, will see something 28 00:01:52,300 --> 00:01:55,100 that we do and there's other things that we can do in praise 29 00:01:55,100 --> 00:01:58,300 and we'll break all this down. But we know that there are 30 00:01:58,300 --> 00:02:00,300 churches and there are believers. 31 00:02:00,300 --> 00:02:02,700 So, I'm not just saying churches as a whole because there are 32 00:02:02,700 --> 00:02:05,900 just Believers as well. That can be in a Spirit-filled 33 00:02:05,900 --> 00:02:09,699 Spirit Led church, but there are a whole churches that are only 34 00:02:09,900 --> 00:02:13,200 led by their soul. They only make decisions based 35 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,000 upon their five senses they have. 36 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,500 Not renewed their mind and they are so Lush. 37 00:02:17,500 --> 00:02:19,600 Lee, LED they go by how they feel? 38 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:24,500 There are many When Praise comes on do the same thing. 39 00:02:25,700 --> 00:02:29,600 They praised out of feeling. They're not praising in the 40 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,800 spirit at all. So, just because you're singing 41 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,300 doesn't mean you're in the spirit. 42 00:02:36,900 --> 00:02:40,400 Alright, and we need to examine this a little bit because if 43 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:46,700 people were engaging God in a Spirit-filled praise that there, 44 00:02:46,700 --> 00:02:51,000 definitely is an environment that will manifest right. 45 00:02:51,100 --> 00:02:55,700 And so with that being said, let's look at a scripture that 46 00:02:55,700 --> 00:03:00,400 lets us know a situation can occur when praise takes place. 47 00:03:01,100 --> 00:03:06,500 Now in Acts 16:25 and acts 16:25 right. 48 00:03:06,900 --> 00:03:11,100 It says this, but about midnight, but about midnight, 49 00:03:11,100 --> 00:03:13,500 Paul and Silas were praying and singing. 50 00:03:13,500 --> 00:03:19,700 Hymns of what praise to God and the prisoners were listening to 51 00:03:19,700 --> 00:03:24,900 them, okay? Now, as you know, this passage 52 00:03:24,900 --> 00:03:30,000 of scripture that because they did this, not because they were 53 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,400 looking for it. So, how do I know someone's in 54 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:34,300 Soul? Praise. 55 00:03:34,300 --> 00:03:36,600 They want to sing a way to make an earthquake. 56 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,100 Manifest. Well, Paul and Silas was not 57 00:03:40,100 --> 00:03:42,900 singing for a manifestation of an earthquake. 58 00:03:44,700 --> 00:03:47,900 Nor were they singing to be let out? 59 00:03:50,500 --> 00:03:52,900 Because if they were singing to be let out the minute, their 60 00:03:52,900 --> 00:03:57,200 shackles flipped off and the doors open, they would have ran. 61 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,500 So a lot of people's Praises are to get them out of something, 62 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,100 not that you can't praise to get yourself out. 63 00:04:07,100 --> 00:04:10,500 I'm not saying that I'm just saying in this instance, he the 64 00:04:10,500 --> 00:04:15,700 problem that we have with praise is that praise typically we try 65 00:04:15,700 --> 00:04:18,300 to do it based upon something. We see in the Bible called, we 66 00:04:18,300 --> 00:04:22,400 want it particular results. When Praise is just something we 67 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,500 do period. The results is really irrelevant 68 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,400 although there will be a result. Don't get me wrong, but I'm not 69 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:36,200 praising him for result. I'm praising him cause he is I 70 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:40,500 praise him cuz he is. And when I initiate that cuz 71 00:04:40,500 --> 00:04:46,400 again, why would we be late? To a service where you can 72 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:53,100 praise e. Why would there be a growth? 73 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,500 I mean, we have a growth spurt, every service. 74 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,600 From the start of service to 15 minutes later we have a growth 75 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:07,900 boom. Miss Supernatural. 76 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,200 I mean, if we could just get that Supernatural growth to 77 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,400 manifest like constantly every 15 minutes. 78 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,200 We would take over the planet right now. 79 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,300 But we get this like boom growth that takes place why? 80 00:05:22,300 --> 00:05:25,300 And it's mainly now some you know you're coming from work if 81 00:05:25,300 --> 00:05:28,900 that's the case I can get that there can be legitimate reasons 82 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:34,200 but the majority of the reason is is that we don't understand 83 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:41,300 the power of our praise We don't understand it. 84 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,300 We don't understand what it line locks for us personally and what 85 00:05:46,300 --> 00:05:49,000 it can unlock for someone else in the room. 86 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,600 Because again, Paul and Silas by All rights, are in no position 87 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:58,000 to praise naturally. They've been beaten and now 88 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,400 they're in jail, right? I mean, this is cried Tom, but 89 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,300 they're not crying. They're just, I just Praise Him. 90 00:06:04,300 --> 00:06:07,100 Anyway, now that's not a fake because I've heard people say, 91 00:06:07,100 --> 00:06:08,100 well, I'm going to praise him anyway. 92 00:06:08,100 --> 00:06:10,900 You're not really praising him because you still thinking about 93 00:06:10,900 --> 00:06:13,700 your problem and crying about it and In the people about it. 94 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,800 So you're saying something about Hallelujah, but you really don't 95 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,200 have a hallelujah. What you have is a complaint. 96 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,100 Because we get around of people that you're around your 97 00:06:24,100 --> 00:06:27,200 complaining. But then he get around certain 98 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:28,900 people all of a sudden, you got a praise. 99 00:06:29,700 --> 00:06:32,100 Well, as your praise for God, our praise for a person that 100 00:06:32,100 --> 00:06:35,200 showed up so that you can put on to praise to make them. 101 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,900 Think you are praising when the reality is, you ain't praising. 102 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,300 What's that means you are so Lush prazer, you're praising on 103 00:06:42,300 --> 00:06:44,700 how you feel, who's in the room, who you can talk with and 104 00:06:44,700 --> 00:06:47,400 identify with because based upon, you know, what's going on, 105 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,200 all this person knows what I'm going through and they can feel 106 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:50,900 my pain and they can sympathize with it. 107 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,800 So I'm going to complain and whine about what I'm going 108 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,300 through and how hard it is. But then over here this person 109 00:06:55,300 --> 00:06:57,600 wouldn't All right, that's why I'm going to say, oh, I praise 110 00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:58,900 the Lord. I'm just going to praise him 111 00:06:58,900 --> 00:07:01,700 anyway. Well, you're not crazy. 112 00:07:02,900 --> 00:07:07,900 All right, hallelujah. Amen. 113 00:07:08,700 --> 00:07:12,700 You know, I love to look at people who are on the platform 114 00:07:12,700 --> 00:07:21,300 that Dupre's When they're off. I like the eye balm in any 115 00:07:21,300 --> 00:07:22,200 church. I'm at. 116 00:07:22,300 --> 00:07:24,600 We'll see what this person does when they're off the platform 117 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,700 because of that praising here. But can't praise him here. 118 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,600 Then their fate Fraser's. Cause now they're just 119 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:38,400 performers, right? Amen. 120 00:07:38,900 --> 00:07:40,500 But you know what? I hear you. 121 00:07:40,508 --> 00:07:41,600 You guys. You're like, yeah, that's right 122 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,700 past her, but you can come into church and praise him and then 123 00:07:43,700 --> 00:07:52,000 on at work, not not do it. All right, so we got to make 124 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,500 sure we're actually there's a reason why we praise. 125 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,300 I mean it's very difficult. I've been in different places 126 00:07:57,300 --> 00:08:00,300 where the minister wants to keep you in a room until the worships 127 00:08:00,300 --> 00:08:02,300 over and I'm like, I want to get out there. 128 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,200 I want to get in the environment. 129 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:08,900 I Just Want To Praise my king. That means and I'm not saving my 130 00:08:08,900 --> 00:08:13,400 voice. I mean, I'm not holding back. 131 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,100 I mean, I'm praising him. I mean, if we need to dance, 132 00:08:17,100 --> 00:08:20,100 let's dance if we need to run. Let's run if we need to shout. 133 00:08:20,100 --> 00:08:22,500 Let's shout even if I'm preaching. 134 00:08:24,100 --> 00:08:24,900 Right. Cause whatever. 135 00:08:24,900 --> 00:08:28,600 The expression. And I and then I can walk in a 136 00:08:28,608 --> 00:08:31,400 layer of submission. Meaning, if Pastor Mark said 137 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:35,200 everybody raise your hands. Well, I guess a promise in your 138 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:36,600 path running, reason my hands man. 139 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,900 Okay, I got a got this service, I'm going. 140 00:08:39,100 --> 00:08:41,700 I mean, even if I'm thinking on the service, how even try to 141 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,400 cause I'm like, did you hear what the guy said something 142 00:08:45,900 --> 00:08:50,200 could happen just in the simple gesture of holy hands. 143 00:08:50,200 --> 00:09:02,300 Lifted High. and if we're too stubborn to, Amen, there should 144 00:09:02,300 --> 00:09:03,700 be. One hundred percent 145 00:09:03,700 --> 00:09:07,100 participation when it comes to singing. 146 00:09:08,700 --> 00:09:13,700 The good news is the Bible already allowed for your voice. 147 00:09:13,700 --> 00:09:16,600 He said, Make a Joyful Noise. He didn't say have to be in 148 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,200 tune. He didn't say it. 149 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,400 Had to be good. He just said I ought to be 150 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,100 joyful which means you ought to be excited that you can open 151 00:09:23,100 --> 00:09:24,700 your mouth. And praise God. 152 00:09:24,900 --> 00:09:26,700 He didn't say it had to sound good. 153 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,900 Amen. So that's not an excuse Pastor. 154 00:09:30,900 --> 00:09:33,100 If you could hurt if you only heard me, you wouldn't want me 155 00:09:33,100 --> 00:09:36,000 to say anything. Well, the Lord makes it that way 156 00:09:36,100 --> 00:09:38,300 he wants to hear it so I have no Pride. 157 00:09:38,300 --> 00:09:41,100 Don't offend me. I mean, do you think these guys 158 00:09:41,100 --> 00:09:46,400 up here always sound like their own tune No not always and 159 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,900 sometimes they you know unfortunately give themselves 160 00:09:48,900 --> 00:09:53,500 away their life. No, facial expression. 161 00:09:53,500 --> 00:09:56,400 People no, facial treasure. When Pastor Marcus and I were in 162 00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:01,400 the youth ministry together for the Youth band was horrible. 163 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,000 Those guys would give each other way. 164 00:10:11,900 --> 00:10:13,200 I mean, you could read their lips. 165 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,300 You know, you're an idiot. You missed it. 166 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,000 What are you doing? You dork. 167 00:10:19,300 --> 00:10:23,300 Hallelujah. Okay, so, you know what, we did 168 00:10:23,300 --> 00:10:27,200 fix that, we put all the lights on the back and they became a 169 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,100 silhouette, you can't even see their faces. 170 00:10:29,900 --> 00:10:31,300 All right? Let's just get rid of these 171 00:10:31,300 --> 00:10:32,300 guys. We don't, you want to see the 172 00:10:32,300 --> 00:10:34,000 face? I just want to hear the voice, 173 00:10:34,900 --> 00:10:37,400 the music, please. I don't need to see their facial 174 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,300 expressions. Hallelujah, are you hear me? 175 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,300 But it was about midnight, Paul and Silas were praying and 176 00:10:44,300 --> 00:10:51,300 singing praises to who, to God. So, let's look at a few 177 00:10:51,300 --> 00:10:52,300 scriptures. Again, we're going to do this 178 00:10:52,300 --> 00:10:55,000 for three weeks, so I don't have to go dive too deep tonight. 179 00:10:55,100 --> 00:10:57,500 I do want to kind of lay a foundation because if anything I 180 00:10:57,500 --> 00:11:01,300 want to loosen your mouth, if anything, I just want to get 181 00:11:01,300 --> 00:11:05,400 your mouth loose because I can't get your mouth loose to release 182 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,700 what the spirit of God wants to do through you, then Sunday will 183 00:11:08,700 --> 00:11:12,500 be different. Sunday itself will be different. 184 00:11:14,300 --> 00:11:17,100 Praise is not the answer of everything but praises and 185 00:11:17,100 --> 00:11:20,300 outflow that, you know, you have the answer for everything. 186 00:11:21,700 --> 00:11:24,800 Even when you're in the middle of the worst thing. 187 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,000 Amen. Hallelujah. 188 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,200 All right. So Psalms 34 1, amen. 189 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,300 Psalms 34, 1, this is going to be a participation sermon. 190 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:40,800 All right. All right, we're going to 191 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,700 participate. He said, I Will Bless The Lord 192 00:11:43,700 --> 00:11:50,400 At what kind of times. How many times sometimes? 193 00:11:51,100 --> 00:11:56,300 Maybe Tom's a few times only on Easter and Christmas time. 194 00:11:57,900 --> 00:12:01,900 Only when I win the lotto and everything's going good, when 195 00:12:01,900 --> 00:12:03,700 all my bills are paid and I'm healthy. 196 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:12,500 So that tells us situations don't dictate praise. 197 00:12:16,700 --> 00:12:19,300 Praise is not dictated by a situation. 198 00:12:22,100 --> 00:12:24,200 So, your praise should not change. 199 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:28,100 You shouldn't praise him more when troubles around. 200 00:12:31,700 --> 00:12:34,500 Some people go crazy. Praise when there's trouble. 201 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,400 And then they forget him during a good time. 202 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,100 And in trouble shows up and they go praising again. 203 00:12:43,300 --> 00:12:44,900 So then they get them in a cycle. 204 00:12:44,900 --> 00:12:47,600 I praise him when I'm in trouble and he always gets me out. 205 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,100 Well, he'll deliver you out all your trouble. 206 00:12:49,100 --> 00:12:51,800 No problem, but he wants you to praise him even in the good 207 00:12:53,100 --> 00:12:55,000 promise, you go, quiet and the good. 208 00:12:55,500 --> 00:12:57,700 And you open the door for trouble. 209 00:12:59,900 --> 00:13:02,900 I Will Bless The Lord At what all times his. 210 00:13:02,900 --> 00:13:14,000 What Praise shall what's that? Next word, continually beware in 211 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:19,800 my mouth? Continually. 212 00:13:20,700 --> 00:13:23,200 Now, how do we know whether we have a continual praise? 213 00:13:23,300 --> 00:13:26,600 It's going to be predicated on, do you have a continual diet of 214 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,500 the word because if you're not continually eating the word of 215 00:13:29,500 --> 00:13:31,900 God? And what I mean by that is 216 00:13:31,900 --> 00:13:33,800 reading it, keeping it in front of you. 217 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,300 It's not going to come out of you. 218 00:13:36,700 --> 00:13:39,000 What will come out of you? What you meditate on. 219 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,800 So if you're meditating on your problem, meditating on your 220 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:45,400 circumstance, made it taking on perceive trouble, that's worried 221 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,300 or whatever the case you're going to speak. 222 00:13:47,300 --> 00:13:49,000 That, that of a that will continually. 223 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,100 Have you been around people that said, that's they continually 224 00:13:51,100 --> 00:13:54,000 talk about the sickness. They continually talk about, the 225 00:13:54,000 --> 00:14:01,100 problem, the relationship, the the you know, the crisis, you 226 00:14:01,100 --> 00:14:04,400 know, they continue to talk about how their victim they 227 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,800 continually talked about, how this situation is this way, 228 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:12,100 because of this. But if they had the word in them 229 00:14:12,100 --> 00:14:14,400 then they what would come out would be different. 230 00:14:14,500 --> 00:14:16,300 We're not denying wearing something. 231 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,500 We're just praise any because he's worthy to be praised 232 00:14:20,500 --> 00:14:23,900 period. So when something happens man in 233 00:14:23,908 --> 00:14:26,900 talking about doing this recently, I've been really doing 234 00:14:26,900 --> 00:14:30,200 this recently because I've had this like tangible knowledge of 235 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,600 the grace of God that I have to have active in my life right now 236 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:36,800 based upon the new season we're in. 237 00:14:37,700 --> 00:14:40,900 And it's a different season. I mean, it's an obviously 238 00:14:40,900 --> 00:14:43,200 different season. It's like boom, boom, boom. 239 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,900 I mean, I got things coming out of hundred miles a minute from 240 00:14:45,900 --> 00:14:50,800 all directions and everything that I got my hand to internally 241 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,800 and externally and then other issues that just want to 242 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,000 manifest. And when it does man I found 243 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,800 myself laughing. I mean forced laughter you 244 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:03,800 understand? It's not like it's there. 245 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,100 I have to life. Well haha, praise the Lord. 246 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,300 You know that shit. Hallelujah. 247 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,500 And you just get it out because at the end of the day, I'm not 248 00:15:12,500 --> 00:15:16,500 going to say, Oh Me, Oh My, what am I gonna do? 249 00:15:18,700 --> 00:15:25,100 I'm not gonna go blame somebody. Well, if you did dump this, Now 250 00:15:25,100 --> 00:15:29,900 let's just pray Z right at this point because I got an intake, I 251 00:15:29,900 --> 00:15:32,000 got n. When I find that it's difficult 252 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,100 to want to say it, my first response is man. 253 00:15:35,100 --> 00:15:36,400 You better go get in the word bro. 254 00:15:37,900 --> 00:15:41,000 None of you have so much word in you that you don't need the word 255 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:45,400 daily. Because the flesh has a capacity 256 00:15:45,500 --> 00:15:49,800 to press the word out of you. Your spirit and flesh battle 257 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,600 what daily. So too many of you are living on 258 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:56,500 a past. Praise Because you have a past 259 00:15:56,500 --> 00:15:59,400 knowledge because you hadn't even been in the word for so 260 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:00,500 long. It's that when you came to 261 00:16:00,500 --> 00:16:03,000 service and you're not actually in the word, when you're in 262 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,200 service, you're not actually in the world. 263 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:10,600 When you're in service, you are receiving by the spirit, a word 264 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,600 that now he holds you responsible to make it your own 265 00:16:15,100 --> 00:16:18,100 You're not changed what called I'm preaching to you your change 266 00:16:18,100 --> 00:16:21,200 when you make it your own and it becomes your personal revelation 267 00:16:21,300 --> 00:16:26,500 and then you act on it. So again when you here today you 268 00:16:26,500 --> 00:16:29,100 can walk out. But you won't be changed unless 269 00:16:29,100 --> 00:16:31,300 you practice it because it's real to you. 270 00:16:31,300 --> 00:16:33,700 And you're like this is how it has to be with me from now on. 271 00:16:34,500 --> 00:16:37,500 And the only reason I'm like this it because I give myself to 272 00:16:37,500 --> 00:16:43,900 it constantly at great effort, To be able to maintain a praise 273 00:16:43,900 --> 00:16:49,400 in my mouth. Because it's easy for something 274 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,400 else to come out. If the Bible tells me, it should 275 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:54,800 be continually. So if it's going to be 276 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:59,300 continually, That I have to continually be putting something 277 00:16:59,300 --> 00:17:02,000 in me, so it can come out. Cold. 278 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:03,400 You see me the other day when I beat that. 279 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,500 You okay. You know, when you first weighed 280 00:17:06,500 --> 00:17:08,000 I wasn't sure if you knew it was me. 281 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:10,800 So I'm like, did I just scare him with the dogs? 282 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,599 I'm not sure. Okay, great. 283 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:20,000 I Will Bless The Lord At what his praise shall be. 284 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:26,800 We're in my mouth. Psalms 101, verse 1, Psalms 101 285 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,600 verse 1. All right, we're just trying to 286 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:33,000 loosen your mouth up, amen. Says praise the Lord. 287 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:39,800 I will give thanks to the Lord with all my in the company. 288 00:17:41,300 --> 00:17:49,300 Of the upright and in which tells me personal praise isn't 289 00:17:49,300 --> 00:17:57,800 enough. So we have a continual praise 290 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:01,100 that we should have and circumstances and situations do 291 00:18:01,100 --> 00:18:06,500 not dictate Our Praise. Then we should have a praise 292 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,700 when we are in the company of the upright. 293 00:18:09,700 --> 00:18:15,300 Do I have some up right in here. Do I have an assembly in here? 294 00:18:15,700 --> 00:18:21,900 Which then tells me when we begin to praise him, you should 295 00:18:22,100 --> 00:18:25,600 praise him. You shouldn't be like this. 296 00:18:31,300 --> 00:19:19,500 Yes, it gets home. It's kind of awkward, isn't it? 297 00:19:19,500 --> 00:19:22,700 Yes like say something please. That's what the Lord saying. 298 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:28,600 Say something please. Don't you know, I die for you. 299 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,600 I was stripped naked for you. I was being so bad, it could 300 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,800 tell you and you don't sit here and not say nothing. 301 00:19:38,900 --> 00:19:42,000 I'm glad when checking my emails and my Twitter feeds and my 302 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:51,600 Instagram and my tick-tock. Just say hallelujah. 303 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,600 Yeah. See all we gotta do is open our 304 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:59,000 mouth so we are to give praise in the assembly. 305 00:20:00,300 --> 00:20:02,900 There should never be a day that Pastor Mark have to come up with 306 00:20:02,900 --> 00:20:06,500 ain't gonna be like, I mean, there's probably in a couple of 307 00:20:06,508 --> 00:20:09,900 times and I've been struck him. I said, listen, if they don't 308 00:20:09,900 --> 00:20:13,700 want to sing, you just tell me to come up, will shut it down. 309 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,400 Because I refuse to beg somebody to worship the king of glory. 310 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,000 I made if we don't have a praise then you know what, we'll just 311 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,000 go on to the preacher because the you need some word in you 312 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,500 that you ain't got something in your mouth. 313 00:20:31,300 --> 00:20:33,500 And here's the problem though, a lot of people like all I needs 314 00:20:33,500 --> 00:20:35,100 the word. No, you need a praise. 315 00:20:36,300 --> 00:20:38,500 You don't need, just a couple. If you actually have the word, 316 00:20:38,500 --> 00:20:42,800 you'd be praising. You would be doing a legitimate 317 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:46,500 praise because when you a get revelation of the word and all 318 00:20:46,500 --> 00:20:50,500 that, the word says about us and about what God's plan for man is 319 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,900 you can't help. But go my God, he is so awesome. 320 00:20:53,900 --> 00:20:56,300 I worship. I honor you God. 321 00:20:57,300 --> 00:20:59,900 You're worthy. Oh my gosh. 322 00:20:59,900 --> 00:21:03,100 You're worthy. You can't help but say it. 323 00:21:04,300 --> 00:21:08,200 And you don't care who's around. And you're not intimidating. 324 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,600 Listen we keep it cranked up enough anyway that we can't 325 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:12,400 really hear you. So you're going to be all right? 326 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,000 you know, I've had people, that's too loud, that's why they 327 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:21,100 have little Earplugs, right. Because again when you get it 328 00:21:21,100 --> 00:21:26,000 really too low people are unfortunately intimidated but 329 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,100 now if you know that it doesn't matter, that's not the point. 330 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,500 Some of the greatest voice I've ever heard in my life. 331 00:21:32,500 --> 00:21:35,400 Greatest voice I've ever heard my life is in boot camp. 332 00:21:37,500 --> 00:21:43,400 Man, if you've never heard boot camp, singing, oh my gosh. 333 00:21:43,700 --> 00:21:47,800 When those guys get in decadence and it ain't even spiritual, but 334 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,900 there's something about unity in their praise. 335 00:21:51,300 --> 00:21:53,800 My gosh, man, it'll do something. 336 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,400 And it makes me think of when David or not David, but when 337 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,200 they told, it might have been David somebody to help me. 338 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:01,400 I got it study, it's just coming up. 339 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,700 I don't remember which one memories had put appraisers in 340 00:22:03,700 --> 00:22:05,700 front. Was it David? 341 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,100 David said, he told they put it Prater and they sang a song, I 342 00:22:09,100 --> 00:22:11,600 get it, but I guarantee it being more Cadence. 343 00:22:12,900 --> 00:22:15,200 And so there cuz it was like they singing the same thing, 344 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,400 they were probably won't probably was saying it in the 345 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,800 rest of them were repeating afterward and they say it again 346 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,300 and they'd hit it again. They may say one part and they 347 00:22:23,300 --> 00:22:27,000 would say some other part You know, the part when I was in the 348 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,000 Army as a break it on down now and then we would go, you know, 349 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,900 one, two, three, four, one, two, three, four. 350 00:22:33,300 --> 00:22:36,100 I'm it's a genuine that's verbier, T is amazing? 351 00:22:36,700 --> 00:22:39,600 It's not even spiritual. So can you imagine when the 352 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:44,100 unity of the company of the upright comes together and 353 00:22:44,100 --> 00:22:50,400 begins to sing Faith filled words, that activate your spirit 354 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,300 man. And you, you, you, you lift your 355 00:22:53,300 --> 00:22:58,700 voice in one Accord. Music is can become irrelevant. 356 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,600 We need it because the Bible is all about having a harp and all 357 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:04,000 that, you know these denominations. 358 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,900 Like we don't play music that stupidity stupidity gone to 359 00:23:07,900 --> 00:23:11,200 seed. Okay, God made instruments. 360 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,200 All right, at the end of the day and so, you know, we can play 361 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:20,600 them, we can we can Rejoice. I mean, you can actually buy the 362 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:25,800 spirit through the instruments, get an anointing to show up and 363 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,100 nobody's even talking. We'll talk about that. 364 00:23:29,100 --> 00:23:32,100 The the prophets like bring me a Minstrel and the minstrel was 365 00:23:32,100 --> 00:23:35,100 not singing a song he would just play in and it calls the 366 00:23:35,100 --> 00:23:38,500 anointing to increase so he could get a word from God. 367 00:23:38,700 --> 00:23:41,600 But again, if you're coming 15 minutes too late and you're 368 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,600 like, I want a word from Guys, like I had it in the first five 369 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:46,500 minutes but you weren't here during the music. 370 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,000 Because who are we to tell God, how we get our word or when we 371 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,600 get it now you may need a word nonetheless. 372 00:23:57,500 --> 00:23:59,600 But that word may come in the first five minutes. 373 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,600 It could come on. The first note, they could hit 374 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,500 it and it just seemed like the anointing hits that note. 375 00:24:04,500 --> 00:24:13,700 We just need to stay there. Pastor Hagan wrote a book called 376 00:24:13,700 --> 00:24:20,300 The untapped power of praise. and it is untapped It is 377 00:24:20,300 --> 00:24:23,000 untapped because true Spirit prays. 378 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:27,100 Those people are so full of joy. Those people are so full of 379 00:24:27,100 --> 00:24:30,800 excitement. They are undaunted by 380 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:34,600 circumstances and situations. It is difficult to ever see, 381 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:40,000 worry manifest in their lives. You know, fear manifest, I mean, 382 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,800 it's like it's like I'm not saying it's not plausible, it's 383 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:47,600 just few and far between anybody ever heard me cuss before. 384 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:57,100 I'm not going to Christopher. I mean, if I still had a cuss 385 00:24:57,100 --> 00:24:59,400 word right now, you'd be like shot because you never heard 386 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:04,200 that word with my voice. So what I'm saying is I'm 387 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:13,300 proficient at not doing it. So you can have a Praise by the 388 00:25:13,300 --> 00:25:16,900 spirit. So proficient that you talk in 389 00:25:16,900 --> 00:25:21,500 fear, are you talking worry? Are you talking doubt? 390 00:25:21,500 --> 00:25:23,700 Are you complaining about something? 391 00:25:24,500 --> 00:25:26,900 We'd be a shock to hear that come out of you. 392 00:25:32,700 --> 00:25:35,100 Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. 393 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,000 I will give thanks to the Lord with all my heart in. 394 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,500 The company of the upright in the assembly. 395 00:25:44,100 --> 00:25:47,100 Can I just be honest with you? Thank you. 396 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:53,800 Our first song on Sunday is a filler. 397 00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,500 The opener, we call an opener. You don't know that because they 398 00:25:59,500 --> 00:26:01,700 don't see it. The very first song We Do. 399 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:08,300 For us, it's called an opener. You know why we call an opener 400 00:26:08,900 --> 00:26:10,600 because we're waiting on the people. 401 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,300 Now that doesn't mean we can't take the opener somewhere. 402 00:26:17,700 --> 00:26:21,700 Should the spirit of God get in it because I'm not stuck to a 403 00:26:21,700 --> 00:26:23,300 formative period. I don't have to come up. 404 00:26:23,300 --> 00:26:25,500 Doing that house of it. I do not have to come up. 405 00:26:25,500 --> 00:26:29,300 Take offering at that moment. If there was a serious move. 406 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,600 And everyone was literally engaged in. 407 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,000 That praise. We would go. 408 00:26:35,700 --> 00:26:45,200 But the reality is We're not. We're not. 409 00:26:47,300 --> 00:26:49,100 Will engage in that relationship outside there. 410 00:26:49,108 --> 00:26:52,800 In the foyer will hang out. Talk, we'll finish our latte 411 00:26:53,500 --> 00:26:55,300 because if you drinking black coffee, you'd be in here. 412 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,100 You know, I'm kidding. I mean no. 413 00:27:02,300 --> 00:27:10,500 But anyway, Now get is there. Anything wrong with that? 414 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:14,500 No, it's about the heart. At the end of the day I don't 415 00:27:14,500 --> 00:27:22,400 want to be caught out there when The band starts, when when the 416 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:26,400 opportunity for me to get into the company of the upright and 417 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:30,400 in the assembly, and we do this thing corporately, because 418 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,700 there's one thing about my individual praise, there's a 419 00:27:32,700 --> 00:27:34,500 whole other thing when I get around a whole lot of other 420 00:27:34,500 --> 00:27:38,400 people praising. Now, again, I'm not looking for 421 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:43,800 an earthquake. But something's reverberating 422 00:27:44,300 --> 00:27:48,300 when face there in our praise. Something's happening. 423 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,000 All right. Isaiah 12:5. 424 00:27:52,100 --> 00:27:56,800 Isaiah 12:5 says this. It says praise the Lord in song. 425 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,300 For he has done excellent things. 426 00:28:00,300 --> 00:28:01,800 Has he done some excellent things? 427 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:06,400 He said, let this be known where Throughout the Earth. 428 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:10,300 So the Psalms 34 told us that on an individual level, his praise 429 00:28:10,300 --> 00:28:13,600 should be continually in our mouths continually. 430 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,500 Then he tells us in Psalm 111 that that praise should manifest 431 00:28:17,500 --> 00:28:20,600 in the company of the upright, which is not just in church, it 432 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,300 could be around other believers. I mean, you should, when you get 433 00:28:23,300 --> 00:28:26,000 around other believers anywhere, praise should be able to get 434 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:30,100 begin to manifest. Should be a byproduct of the 435 00:28:30,100 --> 00:28:31,800 fact that you're in the company of the upright. 436 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,500 But then in the assembly, when we come together in the local 437 00:28:34,500 --> 00:28:37,300 body church, we should be praising him. 438 00:28:37,300 --> 00:28:39,600 It should be out of our mouths, we should be doing it. 439 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:42,700 Then he tells us here, when we sing these songs of praise, the 440 00:28:42,700 --> 00:28:44,300 whole earth should figure it out. 441 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,500 So it's not limited to our personal life. 442 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,200 It's not limited to our church, life. 443 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:54,000 It should be even be exhibited out in the world where they see 444 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:58,300 us praising bad news. Shows up at work and you say hi. 445 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,300 Hallelujah. Praise the Lord, praise the 446 00:29:00,308 --> 00:29:02,100 Lord. What did he praise? 447 00:29:02,100 --> 00:29:03,600 The Lord. Did you hear they're laying half 448 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,600 of us all? Praise God. 449 00:29:06,900 --> 00:29:08,400 My God. My sustainer anyway. 450 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,700 You understand this them bother me one bit and if we are laying 451 00:29:11,700 --> 00:29:13,800 off, half is probably y'all not me anyway. 452 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:19,200 So you want me to pray for you? But if I'm gone, that means 453 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,000 God's already. Got another plus Ami for me 454 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:26,300 somewhere else, and they'll just blown away that you're not 455 00:29:26,300 --> 00:29:32,000 wringing your hands. We're in a recession. 456 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,900 Inflation is at all-time high. Well, praise the Lord. 457 00:29:35,300 --> 00:29:37,200 Aren't you worried? How You Gonna feed your kids? 458 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,700 How You Gonna, man? I just, I just praise God. 459 00:29:39,900 --> 00:29:43,800 I praise him when Neo gas prices were lower and you know, seemed 460 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:45,800 like everybody economically. We're doing good. 461 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,200 And it doesn't matter what's going on in the economy of the 462 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:53,700 world, I just praise him anyway because I praise him. 463 00:29:55,500 --> 00:29:58,000 Circumstance does not dictate my praise. 464 00:29:59,100 --> 00:30:00,600 It doesn't increase. It doesn't lower. 465 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,100 It, I'm constant. I praise thee. 466 00:30:04,100 --> 00:30:08,100 I Just Praise Him and the world should hear our praise. 467 00:30:09,300 --> 00:30:11,200 Our were the world should hear our praise. 468 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,500 That's why you learn in certain songs and then seeing them at 469 00:30:15,500 --> 00:30:16,800 work. Probably, do you good? 470 00:30:17,700 --> 00:30:21,100 I used to take secular songs internal, I mean, because the 471 00:30:21,108 --> 00:30:24,000 world Listen to secular songs. You know, I couldn't always pick 472 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,400 the radio station when I worked secularly or outside the church. 473 00:30:27,700 --> 00:30:32,500 So I would just make stuff up sometimes just for fun, right? 474 00:30:32,900 --> 00:30:35,300 I mean it wasn't like, making them pull their hair out, but at 475 00:30:35,300 --> 00:30:37,500 the end of the day, you know, I could find a praise anywhere. 476 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:39,900 Then at some time, I had just fought their songs. 477 00:30:39,900 --> 00:30:41,900 You know, I'm set up. What a lie. 478 00:30:42,100 --> 00:30:44,100 I can't even believe. Saying that he don't care about 479 00:30:44,100 --> 00:30:47,600 her John. You remember when we were at 480 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:51,500 Hilti? So this is this a long time ago, 481 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:53,700 but the guys listen to country music. 482 00:30:53,700 --> 00:30:56,300 Sometimes probably most of the time, right? 483 00:30:56,500 --> 00:30:58,800 And there was a song. Here's a quarter call someone 484 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:00,600 who care, right? Remember that. 485 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,600 And I was working the carousel. So it's like this thing that has 486 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,100 all these little bitty parts that bring them to you and you 487 00:31:07,100 --> 00:31:10,800 bag, you know, the parts for each distribution center and 488 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,100 then you go to the next one. So I'm kind of stationary as 489 00:31:13,100 --> 00:31:14,800 everybody else is flying by with their things. 490 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,900 And I'm like, seriously, you know, they were like hit the 491 00:31:17,900 --> 00:31:20,100 brakes. And I, what I said Scott, I 492 00:31:20,108 --> 00:31:23,000 don't care. He's saying here's a quarter. 493 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,300 Call someone who cares. Pay phones are 35 Cent now. 494 00:31:30,300 --> 00:31:34,000 Then there was another about a Walmart, right? 495 00:31:34,100 --> 00:31:36,800 They like they tore down the parking lot B of Walmart. 496 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,400 I'm like, they don't make Walmart's anymore of their Super 497 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:43,400 Walmart's, so then I would sing it and say, super Walmart real 498 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:51,800 fast, just Egged on, right? These are the guys John can tell 499 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:53,400 you.

Well, praise the Lord. 545 00:34:14,199 --> 00:34:17,900 Come on, let's say it together. It's not that hard, is it? 546 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,500 Amen, you're at the gym, you do a personal best, you want to get 547 00:34:21,500 --> 00:34:23,199 up and go? Praise the Lord. 548 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:26,100 Maybe like what happened man, God has made me strong. 549 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,900 Whoo, I am strong today. I think there might be an 550 00:34:29,900 --> 00:34:32,500 annoying little bit of Samson happening right now, because 551 00:34:32,500 --> 00:34:36,199 last week, that didn't happen, I know there's some natural, but 552 00:34:36,199 --> 00:34:39,699 it could be pretty spiritual. Maybe you want me to touch you, 553 00:34:39,699 --> 00:34:43,400 maybe you could do it too. Amen. 554 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:49,400 Psalms 104. Psalms 104 verses 33 to 35. 555 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:50,900 Look at this. And said, I will sing to the 556 00:34:50,900 --> 00:34:54,699 Lord as long as I live. Oh, man. 557 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:59,200 I will sing praise to my God while I have my being let my 558 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:03,400 meditation be pleasing to him. As for me, I shall be glad in 559 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:06,500 the Lord. Let the Sinners be consumed from 560 00:35:06,500 --> 00:35:10,300 the earth and let the wicked be no more bless the Lord O My 561 00:35:10,300 --> 00:35:15,000 Soul. Praise the Lord. so, as long as 562 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,700 I live, I'm supposed to sing Now I'm going to be honest with you, 563 00:35:18,700 --> 00:35:22,600 it's difficult for me to sing with some things, and we'll talk 564 00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,900 more about this in the weeks to come because as you grow in 565 00:35:25,900 --> 00:35:28,600 Revelation knowledge of the word there should be some praise 566 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:32,100 songs out there. You can't sing because they are 567 00:35:32,100 --> 00:35:39,200 not in line with your belief. Because you know what, there is 568 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,300 a praise. I had at one point based upon 569 00:35:42,300 --> 00:35:44,900 what I knew. Right. 570 00:35:45,300 --> 00:35:48,500 So based upon where I was at, Paul says, I forget what lies 571 00:35:48,500 --> 00:35:51,800 behind I press on, right? He says we are to live to where 572 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:57,100 we have attained to so I don't go I don't listen to praise. 573 00:35:57,100 --> 00:36:02,000 That's only about getting born again because I'm born again. 574 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,700 Feel of the Holy Ghost, I have authority as a Believer. 575 00:36:04,700 --> 00:36:08,200 I know some truths, so I don't sing praises that. 576 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,700 Say the lord giveth and the lord taketh away. 577 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:16,700 Although that is a scripture The context of that particular song 578 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:21,200 is placing that gods in control, and there's nothing you can do 579 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:24,900 about it because if God wants to take away your blessing to, he 580 00:36:24,900 --> 00:36:30,200 can do that. Now, there was a time I believed 581 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:33,500 that way, but now I know the Devil comes to steal kill and 582 00:36:33,500 --> 00:36:36,600 destroy and I actually have authority over him. 583 00:36:37,500 --> 00:36:41,200 Because we're job said the Lord gives and the Lord takes away 584 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,800 was a lie. It was truth that job said it 585 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,000 but it was a lie that God did it. 586 00:36:48,100 --> 00:36:53,500 Because Satan took it away. The Lord says, have you 587 00:36:53,500 --> 00:36:58,100 considered my servant job? And then he said he's in your 588 00:36:58,100 --> 00:37:01,000 power that's the Dominion you got from Adam. 589 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,000 So now you're operating in that Dominion. 590 00:37:09,500 --> 00:37:12,200 So if it had been accurately it says the Lord gives the devil 591 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:16,500 takes away. Now that I could see the Lord 592 00:37:16,500 --> 00:37:18,600 gives the devil takes away, but I have authority over the devil 593 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,200 and he's under my feet under my feet and I jump to that song. 594 00:37:21,700 --> 00:37:24,800 Are you hearing what I'm saying? So when we actually have done 595 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:28,600 that song, I don't sing that we changed the words because we're 596 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,800 going to sing to the revelation. We have of who we are in Christ. 597 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,600 This is why I don't listen to Christian radio. 598 00:37:35,900 --> 00:37:38,300 I don't listen to Christian radio because there's too much 599 00:37:38,300 --> 00:37:41,400 doubt and unbelief in the lyrics. 600 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:46,400 So I can't hook up. I can't hook up. 601 00:37:47,500 --> 00:37:51,500 Now at the end of the day, if I was working outside the church, 602 00:37:51,500 --> 00:37:54,000 right? And I wanted an alternative for 603 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:58,600 who was in the house, then I could put on a Christian station 604 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,000 that maybe is not doctrinally, correct, but it's definitely 605 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:02,900 more positive than music than me. 606 00:38:02,900 --> 00:38:07,800 Going to the oldies or two, you know, you know, 70s rock. 607 00:38:09,300 --> 00:38:13,900 Or whatever, you know you want to listen to in that case, They 608 00:38:13,900 --> 00:38:16,600 Don't Know Jack. So any exposure is good 609 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:19,500 exposure. Don't get me wrong, but that 610 00:38:19,500 --> 00:38:22,100 doesn't mean internally. I'm singing the song the way 611 00:38:22,100 --> 00:38:24,900 they would. I would change it as I did my 612 00:38:24,900 --> 00:38:27,700 own saying or I would be singing a different song while it's on. 613 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,300 Are you hearing me? I do a lot of individual singing 614 00:38:31,300 --> 00:38:34,900 on my own anyway, okay. Cause I'm not here to dissect 615 00:38:34,900 --> 00:38:36,900 all that. I don't want to, you know, 616 00:38:36,900 --> 00:38:41,000 Crusher, golden calf tonight. All right. 617 00:38:41,700 --> 00:38:44,200 I'm just saying you've got to be able to release the things, you 618 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:52,300 know, in your praise. Because what everyone singing is 619 00:38:52,300 --> 00:38:57,900 not what you know. At the end of the day. 620 00:38:58,100 --> 00:39:00,000 Now, if you sing something, you don't see it different. 621 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:03,100 It's fine sink. It until something goes off in 622 00:39:03,100 --> 00:39:04,000 your life. Hmm. 623 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,000 I was talking to a pastor day about a particular subject. 624 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,800 I won't say what call me from Ohio. 625 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:15,000 Because I communicated to this individual concerning the death 626 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:18,100 gospel, what I've called, the death gospel that you're just 627 00:39:18,100 --> 00:39:20,000 asking people where they going to go when they die. 628 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:24,500 Right, because it's only about what good news. 629 00:39:24,500 --> 00:39:28,500 Do you have when you die? And that Christ didn't come so 630 00:39:28,500 --> 00:39:30,900 that we can know where we're going to go when we die Christ 631 00:39:30,900 --> 00:39:34,600 came, so that heaven could come to us now and we could operate 632 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,400 in it today as a Son of God, a child of God. 633 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:41,600 And when I told them that at Tulsa, we flipped them on end 634 00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:46,600 and they're like, man, I you're right well, I'm not right, the 635 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:50,900 Bible's right? And sometimes we have to rethink 636 00:39:50,900 --> 00:39:53,400 some of the things we are saying, then he got over into 637 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:56,300 another subject and I haven't even priests yet. 638 00:39:57,300 --> 00:40:02,000 Because jeez. Is something else. 639 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:06,400 Is something else but I'm like, you're right. 640 00:40:07,700 --> 00:40:10,700 You're right. Which means now anytime he ever 641 00:40:10,700 --> 00:40:14,100 hears a phrase. He'll never be at a hook up with 642 00:40:14,100 --> 00:40:16,900 it again. Because they're real, he's 643 00:40:16,900 --> 00:40:20,200 realized. That's wrong. 644 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:24,800 Yep. And 90. 645 00:40:27,300 --> 00:40:29,300 Nine percent of all believers, say it. 646 00:40:33,700 --> 00:40:37,000 Hallelujah. Amen. 647 00:40:39,700 --> 00:40:43,600 Hallelujah. 99% of all believers. 648 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:47,100 Say it. And it's wrong. 649 00:40:48,300 --> 00:40:51,700 I'm prove it, but it would take me a 12-week series. 650 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:57,600 And most wouldn't make it through the first two because 651 00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:03,700 they love their tradition more. But it's coming. 652 00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:10,200 It's coming. I've been begging you for six 653 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:11,800 months already and don't even know it. 654 00:41:15,500 --> 00:41:18,100 Hallelujah will praise him. Just say, praise the Lord, 655 00:41:18,700 --> 00:41:21,800 praise the Lord. Amen, don't come near before. 656 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:23,800 I haven't asked and try to get inside track, I'm not going to 657 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:26,300 talk to you about it. I'll say, get thee behind me, 658 00:41:26,300 --> 00:41:28,400 Satan for you. Set your interest on your own 659 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:31,600 and not on the will of God for the release date. 660 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:36,800 Are you hearing me? So, he says, I will sing to the 661 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:38,100 Lord. As long as I live, I'll sing 662 00:41:38,100 --> 00:41:41,600 praise to my God while I am now, notice that verse, 35, let 663 00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:44,500 Sinners be consumed from the earth and let the wicked be no 664 00:41:44,500 --> 00:41:49,700 more. Right, which think brings us to 665 00:41:49,700 --> 00:41:52,300 Psalms 115, which is really interesting. 666 00:41:53,300 --> 00:41:56,700 So I'm wondering 15 verse 17 and 18 because you know here we're 667 00:41:56,700 --> 00:41:59,300 praising God, but we're saying the wicked and the center needs 668 00:41:59,300 --> 00:42:03,100 to get out. Why is that look the dead? 669 00:42:03,100 --> 00:42:09,700 Do not praise the Lord. The Dead. 670 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:34,600 Do not praise the Lord. So are you professing? 671 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:43,500 You're dead. When the words are on the screen 672 00:42:43,500 --> 00:42:46,700 while the band plays are you professing? 673 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:49,900 I'm a dead person because I don't praise 674 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:07,100 The dead do not, praise the Lord nor do any who go down into 675 00:43:07,100 --> 00:43:11,100 silence. But as for us, come on, is that 676 00:43:11,100 --> 00:43:14,500 you. But as for us we will bless the 677 00:43:14,500 --> 00:43:19,100 Lord from this time forth and forever. 678 00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:24,700 What praise praise. The Lord I'm not going to be 679 00:43:24,700 --> 00:43:27,600 counted with the dead. I said, I'm not going to be 680 00:43:27,608 --> 00:43:30,300 counted with the dead. I'm not going to be counted with 681 00:43:30,300 --> 00:43:33,700 the dead. Now, the word praise in some of 682 00:43:33,700 --> 00:43:36,600 these, Psalms not all of them, but in some of these Psalms, 683 00:43:36,900 --> 00:43:40,300 when you look them up in the original Hebrew, a couple of 684 00:43:40,300 --> 00:43:42,500 words are associated with this word, praise. 685 00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:46,800 And this will help you identify when David said, I'll be even 686 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:50,900 more undignified than this. There's a few times this word 687 00:43:50,900 --> 00:43:56,200 Praises translated, as Going mad. 688 00:44:00,100 --> 00:44:09,800 Going mad, insane. I mean, it's like you are so 689 00:44:10,500 --> 00:44:13,800 after a praise that you look crazy. 690 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,300 God been around people. They like somebody's out there 691 00:44:20,300 --> 00:44:24,300 like just crazy over there and they're like, what? 692 00:44:24,300 --> 00:44:27,800 No world. Well, they very well could be 693 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:30,800 scriptural right now. Now, I understand some people 694 00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,700 can do it for attention. I understand that and ultimately 695 00:44:33,700 --> 00:44:35,800 God's going to figure that out at the end. 696 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,100 But we'll figure it out too because when a person is in a 697 00:44:38,108 --> 00:44:41,100 real, I'm going after God, praise and I don't give a rip 698 00:44:41,100 --> 00:44:42,800 who's looking at me and have my junk. 699 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,400 If I'm just, like, dancing around and sweating all over the 700 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:48,900 place and twirl in, and I'm just going after What all my might 701 00:44:48,900 --> 00:44:51,600 with everything that I have, I've just moved into a place 702 00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:55,100 that I look insane, but I am going to praise him. 703 00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,800 Well, you know what? Then he annoy me can Usher in on 704 00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,100 that deal and a lot of stuff can take place. 705 00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:03,800 But I mean, I'm not going to shut down. 706 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:11,100 Somebody's Crazy. Praise now if I send some my 707 00:45:11,100 --> 00:45:16,600 spirit that they're being crazy like just crazy and like dancing 708 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:19,300 around, you know, so everybody can see them, you know, they're 709 00:45:19,500 --> 00:45:22,700 coming up the Al's, you know, I'll be like uh, sure go ahead 710 00:45:22,700 --> 00:45:27,500 and just Help them out, because this is not a dance studio. 711 00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:31,800 This is not your choreograph moment, right? 712 00:45:31,900 --> 00:45:34,300 Because you're bringing the glory to you now. 713 00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:38,900 Come on.

People are dancing up the 716 00:45:43,500 --> 00:45:45,100 aisles. But I've had people get on here 717 00:45:45,100 --> 00:45:47,000 because you've seen them, they get dancing here, they get up in 718 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:49,300 the corner right?

There's some holy hands, lifted 723 00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:08,900 High, there's some dancing, there's some shouting and 724 00:46:08,900 --> 00:46:11,100 there's moments that take place in, here's the thing. 725 00:46:11,500 --> 00:46:15,000 If you do the same thing every time I might question whether 726 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:20,800 it's the spirit Because God's too creative. 727 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:27,100 He did make one style of Praise but if there is this difference 728 00:46:27,100 --> 00:46:29,400 in your praise, that's all biblical. 729 00:46:29,700 --> 00:46:31,800 Well, do you know what? You're probably being led by the 730 00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,100 spirit on how you are to demonstrate that. 731 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:39,100 But if your praise, is this, praise God, from whom all 732 00:46:39,100 --> 00:46:42,500 blessings flow. Praise him. 733 00:46:42,500 --> 00:46:47,300 I'm seeing you Jersey, and that's how you do it all the 734 00:46:47,300 --> 00:46:52,800 time. I'm questioning that If you 735 00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:56,100 don't have a revelation of what Jesus has done for your life, 736 00:46:56,500 --> 00:46:59,300 and we're going to talk about why we praise next week because 737 00:46:59,300 --> 00:47:03,800 there's plenty of evidence because this has occurred, I'm 738 00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:09,100 praising because of what this, what happened here, I'm praising 739 00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:11,900 and again, it's not about your situation. 740 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:15,600 It's about his response in situations. 741 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,400 Are you hearing me? So the dead do not, praise the 742 00:47:20,408 --> 00:47:24,600 Lord, nor do any who go down into silence before us. 743 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:28,500 We will bless the Lord from Tom this time forth and forever. 744 00:47:28,500 --> 00:47:33,800 Praise the Lord Isaiah 38:18, Isaiah 3018 for. 745 00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:37,800 She'll cannot thank you. Death cannot praise you. 746 00:47:38,300 --> 00:47:42,300 Those who go down to the pit. Cannot hope for your 747 00:47:42,300 --> 00:47:47,100 faithfulness. so again a person who will not open their voice 748 00:47:47,100 --> 00:47:51,800 and praise is identifying themselves as a dead person. 749 00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,600 It would be easier for me to conclude you're dead, then you 750 00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:02,800 are alive unto Christ first. Now then except Pastor I am. 751 00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:06,100 Well, then if you are alive to God, start opening your mouth. 752 00:48:09,100 --> 00:48:12,600 Because the Bible says that we should praise him. 753 00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:17,800 So again I don't praise him if I feel like it because praise is 754 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:20,500 not a feeling. Well, I feel like praising him 755 00:48:20,500 --> 00:48:24,600 day, I don't feel like I'ma Praise Him. 756 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:30,100 Anyway. Right right? 757 00:48:30,100 --> 00:48:32,800 This isn't about well we got moves on me to praise him. 758 00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:35,900 I'll praise him. The minute you got born again, 759 00:48:35,900 --> 00:48:39,200 he moved on you. And there ain't no other move. 760 00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:41,800 He has to do for the view of said, to Jesus Christ. 761 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:46,500 Your lord, there's been a move. Now, you move and just act and 762 00:48:46,500 --> 00:48:50,100 begin to respond. Just begin to do it by faith 763 00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:51,900 even when you don't feel like it. 764 00:48:51,900 --> 00:48:56,400 And you don't want to sing, go ahead and do it anyway, but do 765 00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:58,000 it in Faith. Lord, I'm gonna praise this 766 00:48:58,000 --> 00:48:59,700 though everything emotionally about me. 767 00:48:59,700 --> 00:49:02,200 Right now. The situations are like crazy, 768 00:49:02,300 --> 00:49:05,400 but I am going to praise you by faith and I'm gonna sing this 769 00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:07,800 song If be completely connected to it. 770 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:11,900 I Got a lift, my voice with a voice of Triumph, I'm gonna sing 771 00:49:11,900 --> 00:49:14,800 this song out with everybody else and no one around me will 772 00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:16,700 know what I'm going through. Even though you know what I'm 773 00:49:16,700 --> 00:49:19,200 going through and it ain't about what I'm going through because 774 00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:23,700 you're just worthy period. So who am I gonna hold you 775 00:49:23,700 --> 00:49:29,000 hostage with my mouth? And I praise you. 776 00:49:32,500 --> 00:49:34,100 Because I'm not a bit dead person. 777 00:49:35,300 --> 00:49:40,100 So by faith, I praise. By faith and there have been 778 00:49:40,100 --> 00:49:41,300 many meetings. I've been in that. 779 00:49:41,300 --> 00:49:45,600 Didn't want to say nothing. Doesn't matter what I want to 780 00:49:45,608 --> 00:49:47,700 do. What he asked me to do. 781 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:49,800 Praise the lord. Well then I'm going to praise 782 00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:52,300 him. I'm gonna praise Him. 783 00:49:53,300 --> 00:49:57,100 Amen.

Now, listen. 809 00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:51,400 Just so you know. So you'll feel really okay if 810 00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:55,100 that makes you uncomfortable. Okay. 811 00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:03,200 There was a town called Ephesus. That was really ticked off at a 812 00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:07,500 apostle named Paul who came in and started preaching Christ and 813 00:53:07,500 --> 00:53:10,500 him crucified. He was the only God and so the 814 00:53:10,500 --> 00:53:13,700 town started burning their Idols to Diana. 815 00:53:15,500 --> 00:53:18,900 And the blacksmith's that were making all the idols and that 816 00:53:18,900 --> 00:53:22,300 was their company was. So upset called in all the 817 00:53:22,300 --> 00:53:26,100 business guys and said, if we don't do something about these 818 00:53:26,100 --> 00:53:29,700 guys that are turning our world upside down, we're going to lose 819 00:53:29,700 --> 00:53:33,700 our business because everybody is abandoning our craft, and 820 00:53:33,700 --> 00:53:36,000 they're going after this guy, Jesus. 821 00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:40,600 So they call a meeting on unlawful assembly, and they 822 00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:44,500 bring them into the place where I mean packed the place out, and 823 00:53:44,500 --> 00:53:48,100 when they come Paul wants to address them, they get so crazy 824 00:53:48,100 --> 00:53:52,500 and their prayer, praise for a false god that the Bible says in 825 00:53:52,500 --> 00:53:57,000 Acts that they cried out, great is the Goddess. 826 00:53:57,000 --> 00:54:00,900 Diana are Artemis art of whatever that a word with 827 00:54:00,900 --> 00:54:07,800 whatever her name was, but Diana for two solid hours. 828 00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:17,600 Did not relent. They shouted for two hours for a 829 00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:28,000 fake God. Many churches are formulas, that 830 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:30,700 they're worships only 20 minutes because we got to get to 831 00:54:30,700 --> 00:54:33,400 announcements. We got to get to our giving. 832 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:35,500 And then we got to do our 30-minute message, and then tell 833 00:54:35,500 --> 00:54:37,200 everybody how awesome they are and send them out. 834 00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:43,000 Yep. The world worships. 835 00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:48,500 It's Idol called football for 3 hours and they praised They 836 00:54:48,500 --> 00:54:50,800 shout for their team in their loss. 837 00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:54,900 And will curse the other God. That's the other team. 838 00:55:01,900 --> 00:55:06,000 What we just did should not be uncommon in this house. 839 00:55:09,500 --> 00:55:12,700 Should not be uncommon. In fact, it should become so 840 00:55:12,700 --> 00:55:15,600 common that even when I'm preaching and all of a sudden 841 00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:18,200 some praise the Lord. People connecting with the word 842 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:20,900 that it could break out to where we just have to take a praise 843 00:55:20,900 --> 00:55:27,800 break because it's about him. Anyway. 844 00:55:29,100 --> 00:55:32,100 Right now we're not doing a praise break to disrupt the 845 00:55:32,100 --> 00:55:37,200 anointing or to stop something. We're flowing with the spirit. 846 00:55:41,900 --> 00:55:46,300 So Isaiah 43, 21 tells us exactly what the people whom God 847 00:55:46,300 --> 00:55:52,100 has formed, are they are to do, it doesn't say when they feel 848 00:55:52,100 --> 00:55:55,600 like it, let's read it again. The people whom I formed for 849 00:55:55,600 --> 00:56:02,200 myself when they feel like it When they're living a good life, 850 00:56:03,300 --> 00:56:08,300 only when they're in trouble. When they're about to die. 851 00:56:10,700 --> 00:56:14,500 No, we just we just we will declare the praise. 852 00:56:15,700 --> 00:56:19,000 We will declare his praise. Amen. 853 00:56:20,100 --> 00:56:24,300 This word praise literally means a shining through one's actions 854 00:56:24,300 --> 00:56:27,900 and words so we're not just praising with our words. 855 00:56:27,900 --> 00:56:30,100 We will praise him with our actions. 856 00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:35,400 Our lifestyle will signify his praise. 857 00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:42,000 The last scripture I have tonight is Psalms 156. 858 00:56:42,300 --> 00:56:45,100 We're just again loosening our mouths, right? 859 00:56:45,100 --> 00:56:46,400 We're going to loosen our mouths. 860 00:56:47,100 --> 00:56:53,100 So Sunday should be different Sunday at 10:30. 861 00:56:56,200 --> 00:56:58,400 Should look different in the sanctuary. 862 00:57:00,300 --> 00:57:03,200 Because at least everyone here should be in the foyer unless 863 00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:05,600 you're working a parking lot. I understand that our you're 864 00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:07,900 working as a greeter, you have assignments. 865 00:57:07,900 --> 00:57:11,800 I understand that. But other than that, you should 866 00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:16,700 actually be early in here. Anticipating the ability to 867 00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:23,200 praise with the assembly because something can break through, in 868 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:24,700 fact, I know. Because the Lord told me, he 869 00:57:24,700 --> 00:57:27,800 says, because they're doing this praise now, I'm working, certain 870 00:57:27,800 --> 00:57:29,300 things out for some of them right now. 871 00:57:30,900 --> 00:57:33,400 And they re encounter that situation, it would be totally 872 00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:36,000 different. And they'll know it's simply 873 00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:40,600 because they praise me now. That isn't every time it happens 874 00:57:41,500 --> 00:57:46,300 because again, praise is. Regardless of situation, praise 875 00:57:46,300 --> 00:57:51,900 can bring a breakthrough, praise can cause a problem to change, 876 00:57:52,500 --> 00:57:56,800 but that's not why we praise because if you start trying to 877 00:57:56,800 --> 00:58:02,000 use your praise as a formula Then you're not Spirit prazer. 878 00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:05,300 You're a soulish Brazier and you've lost the anointing in 879 00:58:05,300 --> 00:58:07,800 your mouth. Are you hearing me? 880 00:58:09,500 --> 00:58:14,500 So just so you understand, the praise is not limited to 881 00:58:14,500 --> 00:58:22,800 believers. Let everything that has. 882 00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:29,700 Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord. 883 00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:34,900 Even the unrighteous will praise him. 884 00:58:36,900 --> 00:58:42,000 And many do it even here. Come on, you know? 885 00:58:43,500 --> 00:58:48,600 You give something to someone there like praise the Lord and 886 00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:54,000 they're not even believers. Well, God bless you, they're not 887 00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:58,400 even believers. Then, I can believers. 888 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:04,600 I thought about this again. Every time I go back to Tulsa, I 889 00:59:04,608 --> 00:59:07,200 think of this one story, it Bears repeating for those who've 890 00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:08,700 heard it for those who haven't first time. 891 00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:12,600 So, I was a student at Rhema and I was in my vehicle. 892 00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:15,200 It was just me for whatever reason. 893 00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:18,300 Maybe, Marcy, I already dropped the kids or maybe she didn't go 894 00:59:18,300 --> 00:59:19,300 that day, cause the kids were sick. 895 00:59:19,300 --> 00:59:22,300 That's probably what it was. So, I was in the vehicle, all by 896 00:59:22,300 --> 00:59:25,000 myself and I was going to turn left. 897 00:59:25,100 --> 00:59:28,900 Okay, to go out on to Kenosha or 71st. 898 00:59:29,700 --> 00:59:31,000 Were you with me though? No, no. 899 00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:33,000 You were not with me. No. 900 00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:34,200 You were not with me in this one. 901 00:59:36,300 --> 00:59:45,100 You remember my story? So praise the Lord, you're good. 902 00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:49,200 All right. Okay. 903 00:59:50,300 --> 00:59:58,800 Hmm, maybe she's right. Anyway, I definitely was in the 904 00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:03,900 vehicle because I was driving. I cannot confirm or deny whether 905 01:00:03,900 --> 01:00:09,100 Pastor Marcy was there or not, but I do know that whether Marsh 906 01:00:09,100 --> 01:00:15,000 was there or not the Lord knows and she's usually right? 907 01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:20,500 So we'll go with our story. I look to the right I look to 908 01:00:20,500 --> 01:00:23,300 the left, I look back to the right because again, I have to 909 01:00:23,300 --> 01:00:27,000 cross traffic right to get over and get in the Lantern and left 910 01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:29,100 that. You know, this way. 911 01:00:29,100 --> 01:00:31,500 This way, looked again a look one more this way because it's 912 01:00:31,500 --> 01:00:36,100 crazy traffic. And I went out when I did this, 913 01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:40,000 I don't know where the guy came from, but he was like right 914 01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:45,100 there. I made it out, but buddy, he was 915 01:00:45,100 --> 01:00:48,600 not happy right in that intersection right there. 916 01:00:48,600 --> 01:00:49,900 Leaving Raymond here, the red light. 917 01:00:50,100 --> 01:00:54,300 He did a u-turn in a truck. He flipped that thing around and 918 01:00:54,300 --> 01:00:59,600 he got right on my rear end and he was your number one and my 919 01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:01,400 rearview mirror. You tell me how is number one. 920 01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:04,800 He didn't use his finger, but I was number one for quite some 921 01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:08,900 time. Right. 922 01:01:09,300 --> 01:01:12,400 And so he was telling us number one for a little while. 923 01:01:13,300 --> 01:01:14,100 Yeah. Any hot. 924 01:01:14,100 --> 01:01:16,100 He's just like kind of just mad, you know. 925 01:01:16,100 --> 01:01:17,400 It's like this is like road rage. 926 01:01:17,700 --> 01:01:24,600 So I was like, you know, I felt bad honestly so I pulled into 927 01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:28,700 what was a convenience store and it made its called just another 928 01:01:28,700 --> 01:01:31,600 hole or something. I don't know whether it's tattoo 929 01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:35,600 place or whatever it is. But I turned into it park my 930 01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:38,500 vehicle. I Got out, they pulled in to 931 01:01:38,600 --> 01:01:42,100 pull beside me. I got out walked around, he had 932 01:01:42,100 --> 01:01:45,100 his window down his truck, and he leaned back because he 933 01:01:45,100 --> 01:01:47,400 thought he's knew I was coming through the window. 934 01:01:48,100 --> 01:01:51,500 Right, we're fixing to throw down because I came leading with 935 01:01:51,500 --> 01:01:54,300 my hand. I did, I came around. 936 01:01:54,300 --> 01:01:56,900 I was like, hey man, I am so sorry. 937 01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:01,100 That I did that. Honestly, I didn't see you and 938 01:02:01,100 --> 01:02:07,000 he's like Listening to me now, right? 939 01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:10,300 He eases up you know because it got the side of the truck, he's 940 01:02:10,300 --> 01:02:12,900 ready to do one of these like, you know, he's ready to come 941 01:02:12,900 --> 01:02:15,000 through the window with his fists, right? 942 01:02:15,500 --> 01:02:18,600 He's like and he's like and I'm just like, man, I'm so sorry. 943 01:02:19,700 --> 01:02:21,400 Honestly, I didn't see. I look both ways, man. 944 01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:23,700 You just came up so fast. Please forgive me for pulling 945 01:02:23,700 --> 01:02:28,600 out in front of you. He was like, Okay, bad. 946 01:02:28,700 --> 01:02:31,400 You know. Well, God bless you. 947 01:02:33,600 --> 01:02:37,300 God bless me. He was just a minute ago. 948 01:02:37,300 --> 01:02:41,400 Tell me I was number one. And now, God is going to bless 949 01:02:41,400 --> 01:02:46,000 me those every breath. Praise the Lord. 950 01:02:48,100 --> 01:02:51,500 Every breath. I said, every breath. 951 01:02:53,800 --> 01:02:59,700 I mean, there are things breathing besides humans and 952 01:02:59,700 --> 01:03:03,000 there was a time on the planet that they talked and it wasn't a 953 01:03:03,008 --> 01:03:15,100 foreign concept. Everything that has breath. 954 01:03:15,100 --> 01:03:18,400 Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord. 955 01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:23,900 So, praise is not limited to God's children, but God's 956 01:03:23,900 --> 01:03:29,300 children were made. Not made to only praise. 957 01:03:29,300 --> 01:03:34,000 That is false teaching. We were made to praise. 958 01:03:34,200 --> 01:03:39,200 No, you were made to have dominion, and you'll praise as a 959 01:03:39,208 --> 01:03:42,500 result of your purpose. Because we're not going to go to 960 01:03:42,500 --> 01:03:46,700 heaven and sing all day long. He has beings that do that. 961 01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:51,400 You're not going to be part of the ones that fly around the 962 01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:52,800 throne and sing. Holy! 963 01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:54,800 Holy Holy you're not getting into that choir. 964 01:03:55,900 --> 01:03:58,100 Okay? You're not getting into that 965 01:03:58,100 --> 01:04:00,900 choir. That's not going to be your 966 01:04:00,900 --> 01:04:02,700 choir assignment. Oh, I'm going to be with those, 967 01:04:02,700 --> 01:04:05,000 you know, flying things that are saying. 968 01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:06,900 Holy holy. Holy, I'm gonna get in there. 969 01:04:06,900 --> 01:04:08,700 They'll never gonna give you a tryout. 970 01:04:10,500 --> 01:04:13,000 You're the wrong creature for that. 971 01:04:13,700 --> 01:04:16,700 You have a totally different assignment and we're not going 972 01:04:16,700 --> 01:04:21,700 to sit around at the throne in little gowns with Harps. 973 01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:24,900 Singing for eternity. That is not happening. 974 01:04:25,900 --> 01:04:29,500 That is not going to happen. That's false teaching. 975 01:04:32,500 --> 01:04:38,400 But we will praise him forever. I said we will praise him 976 01:04:38,400 --> 01:04:41,400 forever. So again if praising him down 977 01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:45,400 here is a challenge. We at like the minute we let go 978 01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:48,100 of our skin suit. It's not going to be a problem. 979 01:04:48,300 --> 01:04:50,800 I mean you're going to have to learn some things. 980 01:04:53,600 --> 01:04:55,900 God's training us. Now we've already entered 981 01:04:55,900 --> 01:05:00,200 eternal life, we just haven't left the Earth but Eternal 982 01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:03,900 life's in us the third person of the godhead is in us we are 983 01:05:03,900 --> 01:05:08,700 doing Throne Room activity.
