1 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:19,120 So the title, my message tonight is this, we're going to kind of 2 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,120 move in a little direction here. We're talking about duties 3 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:27,280 beyond the clouds, all right, because we're dealing with 4 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:29,680 angels now. Last week we exposed this 5 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:35,000 picture is air, right? Because angels themselves do not 6 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,920 have wings. Cherubims have wings, Seraphims 7 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,520 have wings. But there's no indication that 8 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:46,800 angels themselves have wings. It never speaks about Gideon 9 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:48,880 having wings. It doesn't talk about the 10 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:50,920 Archangel Michael having wings at all. 11 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:56,920 In fact, in in in the encounters with angels, people that 12 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:03,480 encounter them see them as humans, and I have not seen a 13 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:10,800 normal human wearing wings. Now I have seen humans wearing 14 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:14,200 fake wings. OK, I have been in some places 15 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:18,920 where it's obvious that this lady that went by desires to be 16 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,480 a fairy and has some things on their back, but they did not 17 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,520 grow there. They were not born with it. 18 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:32,000 Are you hearing me? OK, so we finished out last week 19 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,880 with this particular scripture. We're not finished out, but we 20 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,760 use this one. I want to launch with it today. 21 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,520 It's Hebrews chapter 13 verse. Two, it says, be not forgetful 22 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:47,680 to entertain strangers, right? Again, strangers for thereby 23 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:53,080 some have entertained angels unaware, which means then we 24 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:59,880 said this last week, there's nothing extra spiritual about a 25 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:06,320 person if they see an Angel. If a person encounters an Angel 26 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:10,039 does make does not mean that they are more spiritually in 27 00:02:10,039 --> 00:02:12,920 tune with heaven or the realm of the Spirit. 28 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,560 Amen. Because he tells us that when we 29 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,480 entertain strangers, we may have entertained angels unaware, 30 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:26,040 which we may be able to conclude right now that everyone in this 31 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,360 room has actually seen an Angel. You just don't know it. 32 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:34,240 Now if you stop long enough and think, you may realize maybe I 33 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:38,120 did OK. For years I thought a particular 34 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:42,480 person could have been an Angel. When my wife and I answered the 35 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:47,280 call to go to Atlanta after I had finished a tour in the 36 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:51,640 National Guard, now not a a overseas tour, it was stateside 37 00:02:51,640 --> 00:02:56,800 tour coming off the first Desert Storm and that whole thing was 38 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,120 ending. So I, my wife and I moved up to 39 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:03,920 Atlanta to live with her father, influence that family up there. 40 00:03:03,920 --> 00:03:05,680 None of them were born again or saved. 41 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:07,480 And so we went up there. It was kind of like our 42 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,600 missionary journey for our family and we were heading up on 43 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,920 July 4th weekend and so I had left Florida. 44 00:03:15,920 --> 00:03:19,520 It was hot, probably 90 something degree 95 or more. 45 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,760 And we look, you know, we got our I got a truck with a U-Haul 46 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,800 on the back of it. Things loaded in the truck. 47 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,120 My wife's in a little Mazda. 323. 48 00:03:28,640 --> 00:03:34,920 Have our two kids, 'cause Brianna was not known yet. 49 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,520 She was she was there, but she was not known yet. 50 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,960 OK. And so at that, with that being 51 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:50,000 said, we were on 75 head north and a crane had hit one of the 52 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:55,840 overpasses that was hindering the northbound 75 from 53 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,000 continuing. So we had to do a detour. 54 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,640 Well, we got stuck in traffic at noon. 55 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,120 It took us 2 hours to go 4 miles. 56 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:12,000 Just say Amen. So we pulled over, got into this 57 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,600 one place. Obviously I don't know how our 58 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,720 kids made it because Chase was just a baby and he hated car 59 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:19,720 seats. He hated them. 60 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,160 I mean he would scream. It was horrible. 61 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,120 I mean, thank God he outgrew that. 62 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:27,080 The car seat that is. We got out of that deal because 63 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:32,280 that was horrid. Just the absolute fit he had by 64 00:04:32,280 --> 00:04:36,040 being in that seat. All right, I would like to say 65 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,520 this, just because we use our children as examples do not mean 66 00:04:39,840 --> 00:04:44,200 that you should reward them for things that did not happen when 67 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,800 they were children. It has come to our attention 68 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:52,360 that when Pastor Marcy mentioned about Brianna not having any 69 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:56,040 Ninja Turtle underwear that someone sent her a pair. 70 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,600 Yeah, it's in a pizza box 'cause you know, Ninja Turtles love 71 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:09,720 pizza and so she's got a pair. Do not send Chase a car seat. 72 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,800 After this example, OK #1 they're not having any more 73 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,520 children. OK. 74 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,040 So I want to save you an expense, all right? 75 00:05:21,280 --> 00:05:23,960 OK. I cannot confirm or deny whether 76 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:28,040 Brianna put those on or not. Cannot do that. 77 00:05:28,280 --> 00:05:30,920 OK. But I do know Caius likes them 78 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,720 all right? So maybe she'll save him till he 79 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:39,320 gets older because I think they may be a little big right now. 80 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,120 With that being. Said We pulled over, stopped to 81 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,680 get something to eat, 'cause, you know, again, here it is, 242 82 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,680 hours later, we finally get, you know, the four miles. 83 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,240 We're going to stop for a second with our kids, regroup, moved, 84 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,560 ate some food from Dairy Queen because that's all that was at 85 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,880 the exit people. And and then I went to crank up 86 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,040 the truck and it was dead. It would not crank up. 87 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:08,560 Now, this store gas station is not a service station. 88 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,040 There was not a garage associated with this. 89 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,440 And so as a result of that, you know, we're like, what are we 90 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:14,560 going to do? I have no jumper cables, 91 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:15,400 nothing. I mean, there's people 92 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:19,080 everywhere, don't get me wrong. I mean, you know, 'cause people, 93 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,120 yeah, we made it off the road. There was others that were 94 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,920 overheating because of the air conditioning running and not 95 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:25,520 moving. They were already diving on the 96 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,960 sides of the roads, right? But we were able to make it off 97 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,080 car. No, the car is what died. 98 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,240 The truck was fine. Anyway, a guy comes up, he had 99 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,920 to be at least six, one, all right, Very thin guy at six, one 100 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:45,200 probably weighing maybe 150. Maybe he had no shirt on, no 101 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,400 shoes on. He was wearing Jean shorts that 102 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:52,160 were so short that the whites of the pockets, you could see them 103 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,400 coming out, right? He says. 104 00:06:55,400 --> 00:07:02,440 What's what's going on? I said, well, batteries dead. 105 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,920 I don't have any jumper cables, you know, because obviously saw 106 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,800 us with a couple of kids. He says, you know, so he said we 107 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,680 got another truck. I said, yeah, I don't know how 108 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,680 we had that conversation, but but I said it cranks. 109 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,520 He said. He said, well, do you have? 110 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:16,440 He goes, you got a pair of pliers? 111 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:17,840 I said I do. He said, OK. 112 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:19,800 He said, I can, I can help you. All right. 113 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,000 So he said, pop the hood of the truck, pop the hood of the 114 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,000 truck. He disconnects the battery, 115 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,960 pulls it out of the truck, walks over, puts it down, picks up the 116 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:29,640 hood in my wife's car, sets it down. 117 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:34,040 He grabs a tire iron and a pair of pliers, all metal. 118 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:39,920 He says get in. True story, people, true story. 119 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,040 He puts it on. The the you know. 120 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:51,360 Posts and he said hit it. So I did click, click, click, 121 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:52,760 click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click. 122 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,480 Stopped, right. He said do it again. 123 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,200 Probably did it three times. Third time, cranked up. 124 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:00,920 Then he went putting the other battery back in the truck, 125 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:02,320 cranked it up. We were on the road. 126 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:10,360 His name was Junior from Tifton. No, actually from Sylvester. 127 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:17,000 It was from Sylvester. OK, so every time I was on 75 128 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,960 going through Tifton, it has a sign to Sylvester. 129 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,320 And I said, Lord, I don't even know if Junior's a real person. 130 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:30,080 He could have been an Angel. But all I know is if he is, I 131 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:34,840 pray for him and his family. They get born again every time. 132 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:39,240 I went by a few years ago, probably five or six now, maybe 133 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:40,640 10. We've been here 20 years now. 134 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:44,480 Could have been longer, but a couple showed up at our church 135 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,440 for a season. OK, Anna's here. 136 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:52,320 I tell this story. Next thing you know, they're on 137 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,640 their phones. Come to find out they were 138 00:08:55,640 --> 00:09:01,400 related to Junior in Sylvester. And they called him and asked, 139 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,720 did you remember doing this? Isn't that amazing? 140 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,440 So all those prayers brought in one of their families in our 141 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,320 church years later. Wow. 142 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,480 So don't underestimate, you know, things that you know 143 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:17,920 people are doing and the influences. 144 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:21,000 Even though you know, Junior wasn't an Angel, he was really a 145 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:25,000 person I did not know. But we are entertaining angels 146 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,040 unaware. So seeing an Angel doesn't make 147 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:29,440 you. Super spiritual. 148 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,280 The reason I say that is because in the last of the last days 149 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,000 with seducing spirits and doctrines of demons. 150 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,160 In fact, we'll show this scripture later on. 151 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,680 We get into studies concerning the demonic realm. 152 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,640 It says the devil will come as an Angel of light. 153 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,800 Now why would he do that? Because he. 154 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:51,080 Knows the minute you are wanting and are lusting would be a 155 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:57,040 better way to say that you have a lust to be known to see into 156 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:02,920 the spirit and be known by the church or the crowd you're 157 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,000 around that you see spiritual things. 158 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,800 He will accommodate you with a counterfeit. 159 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,280 OK, He'll accommodate you with a counterfeit and then all of a 160 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:18,160 sudden that counterfeit will get you into thoughts concerning the 161 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,160 word that is off. Are you hearing me? 162 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,760 So again, we just stay with the Word. 163 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,800 That's why we are not the worship angels. 164 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,360 We said this last week in Colossians chapter 2 verse 18. 165 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:33,560 Let no one keep defrauding you of your prize by delighting in 166 00:10:33,560 --> 00:10:36,560 self abasement and the worship of angels. 167 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:41,440 Taking his stand on visions he has seen inflated without calls 168 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,360 by his fleshly mind. So again, look what this Paul 169 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,840 says to the Colossians church. He said let no one keep, which 170 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:53,040 means somebody's been talking. Keep defrauding you of your 171 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,160 prize by delighting in self abasement in the worship of 172 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,560 angels. Again, you know people want you 173 00:10:59,560 --> 00:11:01,400 to think they're seeing things they're not. 174 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:05,680 Seeing. So that you then will think 175 00:11:05,680 --> 00:11:10,680 they're more in tune with God and the minute you begin to suck 176 00:11:10,680 --> 00:11:13,160 up to them, what have you seen, what have you heard? 177 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:18,080 Then the devil will accommodate them with some spirits from his 178 00:11:19,680 --> 00:11:22,800 realm or dominion. They are called familiar 179 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:26,160 spirits. And familiar spirits travel 180 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:30,560 around and get connected with families and things because they 181 00:11:30,560 --> 00:11:34,280 have multiple open doors. And familiar spirits knows, they 182 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,080 know what you've been wearing. They know what Cologne you put 183 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:41,000 'cause they're around you. Then that person then that has 184 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:44,960 opened themselves up to try to worship angels and seem like, 185 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:49,280 you know, they're super tapped into the realm of the spirit to 186 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,080 try to pull you off or defraud you. 187 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,600 Then the next thing you know, a familiar spirit will speak to 188 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,760 them and say where they can say yes. 189 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:58,920 You know, three days ago you were wearing and you're like. 190 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:03,480 You're right and not even know that you're entertaining the 191 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:06,640 demonic realm which is witchcraft. 192 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:11,240 OK, so obviously God is preparing us as the church, 193 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:14,200 which He's preparing His whole church for those who are 194 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,360 preaching and teaching what is necessary for His return. 195 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,440 Amen. Because Jesus made us very 196 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,440 clear, we started out this year with the reigning Spirit to 197 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,920 communicate in the last of the last days. 198 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:29,000 There will be some that will fall away from the faith, giving 199 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,600 heed to doctrines of demons and seducing spirits. 200 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:36,520 So we have to talk about this realm so that we are not seduced 201 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,560 or deceived, received in the spirit realm. 202 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,240 OK? This is nothing to be afraid of 203 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,120 because we have the reigning spirit. 204 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,960 Greater is he that's in us than he that's in the world. 205 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,200 And the devil himself is defeated under our feet. 206 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,040 We are not intimidated by him or his realm. 207 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,800 He is to submit to our authority. 208 00:12:57,560 --> 00:13:01,360 Okay so then we are not to worship angels. 209 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:06,400 Then we saw in Revelations 2289 it says I John am the one who 210 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,640 heard and saw these revelations. This is the last book of the 211 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,520 Bible guys, the last chapter. Okay. 212 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,160 He said I heard and saw these things, and when I heard and 213 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,760 saw, I fell down. What did he fall down to do? 214 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,000 To worship at the feet of the Angel who showed me these 215 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,760 things. The revelation that the Lord 216 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:30,480 Jesus told the Angel to communicate to John when he was 217 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,680 caught up in the Spirit on the Lord's Day. 218 00:13:34,680 --> 00:13:39,240 It was so full of revelate things that had never been seen 219 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:44,600 or heard or or let's put it this way, unlocked because Daniel and 220 00:13:44,680 --> 00:13:48,680 and Ezekiel, they had some insight and even Jude for that 221 00:13:48,680 --> 00:13:51,440 matter of the time that was to come. 222 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,600 But the Lord in the Daniel's case specifically said seal it 223 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,320 up and wouldn't let him converse about it. 224 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:02,080 However, John had the ability to open it back up and communicate 225 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,880 more detail. All right, and so when he had 226 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:09,000 when this information was coming right, he falls down to worship 227 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,400 at this Angel. But the Angel verse nine said to 228 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:18,120 him, do not do that. Angels will never that are from 229 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:24,240 God ever let you worship them. If you ever came to me and said 230 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,600 man, there was an Angel came and told me to worship them, then I 231 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,600 would immediately say to you it was demonic. 232 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:34,360 It was not an Angel. I would say that and I don't 233 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,360 care if you're like, no, I mean, I had an experience. 234 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,760 You can't I'd be like you are entertaining the devil because 235 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,320 this tells me from scripture, which you just Revelation 22. 236 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,280 We can go to Revelations 19 as well. 237 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,520 It literally says and then obviously we just read 238 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:51,640 Colossians 3 witnesses telling you do not worship angels. 239 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:56,000 So if an Angel ever if something came as an Angel of light and 240 00:14:56,000 --> 00:15:00,320 say worship me, it is demonic period. 241 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,840 OK, so but he said to him, do not do that. 242 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:13,200 I am a what, fellow servant of yours, and of your brethren the 243 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:18,600 prophets. And of those who, who, who, what 244 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,240 is that? The end who whatever verse nine 245 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:27,360 I'll go over to my own who heed the words of this book worship 246 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:28,760 God. Sometimes our computer gets 247 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,040 stuck so it's not them falling asleep in the back. 248 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:35,800 OK, so with that being said, then notice that the Angel said 249 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:41,880 that I'm a fellow servant of yours and your brethren, which 250 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:42,520 gives. Us a little. 251 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:47,560 Insight about what ain't the the duties beyond the clouds that 252 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,760 angels have. Look at Hebrews chapter one, 253 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,280 Hebrews chapter one. There's a whole lot in Hebrews 254 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,960 chapter one actually, but we are going to just stay focused on 255 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,400 these couple verses so we can kind of move through a little 256 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,760 bit tonight. It says this, but to which of 257 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:05,280 the angels has he ever said? To which of the angels has he 258 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:09,440 ever said, Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a 259 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:16,040 footstool for your feet. Verse 14, Are they not all? 260 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,080 Now? Who are all they? 261 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:20,560 They are. This is the angels. 262 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,160 So verse 14 are talking about the angels. 263 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:28,760 Are they not all ministering spirits sent out to render 264 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:35,080 service for the sake of those who are what heirs or who will 265 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,520 inherit salvation? Well, who inherits salvation? 266 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:43,040 Who inherits salvation? Who can be saved? 267 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,440 We can. So who are they to render 268 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:54,200 service to us? We do not worship the one who is 269 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:58,000 rendering service to us. Are you hearing me? 270 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,240 They are waiting to hear the voice of a king. 271 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,079 They are waiting to hear a voice of a king. 272 00:17:09,319 --> 00:17:12,720 Are you hearing me? OK, Which means there's there's. 273 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:19,040 Things that we can do in conversing in our prayer life 274 00:17:19,599 --> 00:17:23,880 that our angels can hear and begin to respond. 275 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:31,480 So when it comes to the realm of heaven, and we'll try to dissect 276 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:35,360 this a little bit more probably in some later days, but I'll lay 277 00:17:35,360 --> 00:17:39,960 a few things out again, The Bible is about a king, his 278 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:46,320 Kingdom and his royal offspring. All right, and because of that, 279 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,880 God the Father is the King of all. 280 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:54,320 He is supreme authority, but God the Father as the Godhead, 281 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,440 There's God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. 282 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:02,120 They are three in one. They are the supreme of being 283 00:18:02,120 --> 00:18:05,240 the supreme ruler. They are God. 284 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:14,080 OK, as a result of that, they then he or God the Father, Son 285 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:19,080 and Holy Spirit have created a spirit being, have created 286 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,280 spirit beings. We know there are cherubims in 287 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:24,960 the Bible, seraphims in the Bible, and angels. 288 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:30,200 They came from God. There's nothing in the Word that 289 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,520 lets us know how. They came into being. 290 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:39,160 Nothing does it say we do not have that account. 291 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:43,560 We have the account of ire coming into being and that is he 292 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,360 made man out of the dust of the earth and he what breathed into 293 00:18:46,360 --> 00:18:49,160 his nostrils the breath of life. There is nowhere in scripture 294 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:53,480 that says God breathe and angels, seraphims, cherubims 295 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:57,160 existed at this point. There's two ways that things 296 00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,320 have come into being. One is God spoke. 297 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,680 He said let there be and there was. 298 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:10,960 Are you hearing me OK now? There may be an indication based 299 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:16,000 upon the creation and again it all depends on how you begin to 300 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,680 look at stuff and Genesis, it said in the beginning God 301 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:19,840 created the heavens and the earth. 302 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,160 OK, well the heavens water in there was that the heavenly host 303 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,720 as well. Now, if you are a believer of 304 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,600 the gap theory, which is there's a gap between Genesis 11 and 305 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,160 Genesis 1-2, and some may be. Here saying, I've never heard 306 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:33,960 that before. Well, there are some things 307 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:37,320 within Scripture that may conclude that there was a time 308 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:41,040 in the existence of heaven on earth that the heavenly host had 309 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:45,960 an assignment on the earth, and because they failed in that, God 310 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,120 destroyed it. Because in verse two, it talks 311 00:19:49,120 --> 00:19:52,360 about him dealing with some things on the planet. 312 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:56,360 There's confusion, there's some disorder there that he's got to 313 00:19:56,360 --> 00:20:00,000 make some rearrangements, which would mean then something was in 314 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,440 a order at one point and something has come to bring 315 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,280 disorder. OK. 316 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,080 That's where these conclusions come from. 317 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,960 There are others that have context of a pre Adamic race, 318 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,080 OK. And so there's a lot of context 319 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,040 there. I'm not here to talk about all 320 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:17,880 that today. We can get to that at some 321 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:22,200 point, but at the end of the day it's not changing literally what 322 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,800 we already know within Scripture and how to function. 323 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,280 And be ready for the King. Your knowledge of that existence 324 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:35,040 does not make you better as a believer or walk closer to God 325 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,920 in having that knowledge. So can I say that? 326 00:20:39,360 --> 00:20:43,520 All right. OK, anyway, we know that he says 327 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,080 He created the let there be light. 328 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,920 Then he separated the night from darkness. 329 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,920 OK. And so then we understand what 330 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:53,680 is light. Well, then you get the sun and 331 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,520 the moon. So what light are we talking 332 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,840 about then? So there's some context there 333 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,600 that maybe the light is heavily beings at that point. 334 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,800 So maybe that's where it was and it was a spoken existence of 335 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,200 these spiritual beings that he spoke into existence. 336 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:13,240 Are you hearing me? OK, other than that, I cannot 337 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,680 give you an answer. And again, I'm not going to give 338 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:17,960 you something that I don't know emphatically. 339 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,440 I'm just giving you some things perspectively from Scripture. 340 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:26,960 What we do know is that these beings do have a will, because 341 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:30,920 if they did not have a will of their own, how could the morning 342 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:36,120 star the anointed cherub? How could he rebel from God and 343 00:21:36,120 --> 00:21:40,040 want to have his seat right? How could he do that? 344 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,680 How could a third fall with him? How could that happen? 345 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:47,320 How could it be that some that left their proper domain, 346 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:51,800 according to Jude, have been in or in chains right now reserved 347 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:53,840 for judgment. OK. 348 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:55,720 Which means they were created by God. 349 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,800 God doesn't create evil. But he talks about this anointed 350 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,080 chair. We call him King James labels 351 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,680 him as Lucifer. We know him as the devil or 352 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,160 Satan. And he fell and he says, you 353 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:12,240 know, pride was found in you. God didn't put pride there, but 354 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:17,000 he he he, he started to birth that on his own because he 355 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,400 wanted the lust to be the king of all creation. 356 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:24,040 He wanted the Creator to worship the created. 357 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:29,480 All right, so they do have will, which means Michael decided to 358 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:35,960 stay with the Lord. Gabriel decided and is still 359 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:40,320 deciding to stay with the Lord. Are you? 360 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:46,120 Hearing me OK. So, so these beings that are 361 00:22:46,120 --> 00:22:50,680 created, God has created them for us. 362 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,000 So I do not know the time frame because it doesn't tell us if 363 00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:02,600 there is this this fall, there is this fall of Lucifer. 364 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:06,280 We'll just say that you know, Satan, there is this fall. 365 00:23:06,360 --> 00:23:08,080 We do not are given a time frame. 366 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:09,680 We do not know how long that existed. 367 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:13,120 We do not know what that is, but we know that God knows the end 368 00:23:13,120 --> 00:23:18,560 from the beginning, right? And that he, he saw Jesus Christ 369 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,480 slain before the foundations of the world. 370 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:26,400 So even if the ministering spirits existed, let's say we 371 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:30,120 could just be hypotheticals, say 100,000 earth years, right? 372 00:23:30,120 --> 00:23:32,360 We're just gonna say million. For that matter. 373 00:23:32,360 --> 00:23:36,240 It doesn't say in the in the prospect of of eternity or in 374 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:41,600 the concept of eternity. But we know this God always was 375 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:49,440 planning to make a man in his own image to rule as he rules 376 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:55,920 and that those beings would be subject to him, meaning they 377 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,920 were to render him service. Because I'll show you this 378 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,400 scripture later on, probably on another day that that Paul says, 379 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:06,120 don't you know that we will judge angels? 380 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:12,120 So notice you're going to judge a species of being that God has 381 00:24:12,120 --> 00:24:16,440 created and you've you don't even know if you've seen them or 382 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:22,920 not. Now you can say, well, how can I 383 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,160 judge someone I've never seen? Well, all you need is the Word 384 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,200 because everything is subject to the Word of God. 385 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:33,920 All of creation is subject to the Word of God. 386 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:37,560 You don't have to see all that God's created to know that all 387 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,400 these things are to be submitted to the Word. 388 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:43,080 So if you know the Word, it makes you a good judge. 389 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,160 I'm not telling you to be judgmental. 390 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:49,080 I'm just saying you need to understand you're going to be in 391 00:24:49,120 --> 00:24:52,600 a judging position. That's probably not a popular 392 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,360 thing to say right there, right? You know, Oh, don't judge. 393 00:24:55,360 --> 00:24:57,440 Me. OK, I'm not judging you. 394 00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,640 Meaning I am not. I am not. 395 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:06,360 Putting the final sentence that you are going to burn in the 396 00:25:06,360 --> 00:25:11,320 lake of fire, It's not my responsibility, but I can judge 397 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:15,760 your fruit for the Bible tells me to do so. 398 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,160 The Bible tells me so when I sing that song together, should 399 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,720 we sing that song together? The Bible tells me so that I am 400 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:28,000 to judge your fruit very much. So those that are considered 401 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:32,040 Saints. He says judgment first starts in 402 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:37,320 the household of God. So again he says judge yourself 403 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:41,360 lest you be judged. Now again, I'm not going around 404 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:46,280 trying to judge you, but I can examine your fruit to determine 405 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:52,080 are you lining up with the Word of God and bearing the fruit 406 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,880 that the Holy Spirit would bear? In you if you are following the 407 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,760 leading of the Spirit. Because if you're born of God, 408 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:01,120 you should produce the fruit of God. 409 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,800 Amen. And what are the fruits, 410 00:26:06,120 --> 00:26:10,120 Lovejoy? I mean, joy, you should not be 411 00:26:10,120 --> 00:26:13,720 walking around depressed. If you're, if you're around a 412 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,600 believer that's depressed, complaining all the time, you 413 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,760 should be like, there's a problem. 414 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,320 And you know what, they'll go, don't judge me. 415 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:26,640 I'm judging the fact that you're depressed, whining and crying 416 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:30,400 all the time and there's a fruit in you called joy. 417 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:39,240 So why are you not accessing it? Because it's not God's problem, 418 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:43,120 it's your problem. You're hindering it. 419 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:48,680 Lovejoy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness 420 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:54,400 and all the big one self. You need some self help? 421 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:59,480 Then get some control over yourself, 'cause nobody can help 422 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:07,120 you but the Holy Spirit in you as you yield, 'cause he'll give 423 00:27:07,120 --> 00:27:09,040 you that fruit. Just control. 424 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:12,520 Yourself. So you don't have to get out of 425 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:16,680 control, and when you feel like you need to, you're about to get 426 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,040 out of control. Everything's coming against you. 427 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:20,680 All kinds of stuff are happening. 428 00:27:21,360 --> 00:27:24,920 Amen. Praise the Lord, all the things 429 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:29,240 are happening right. And all of a sudden you're like, 430 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,600 man, Holy Spirit, just just hand me that fruit. 431 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:36,480 I'm ready to eat some self-control. 432 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:41,480 Hallelujah, man. You, you got out of control. 433 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,040 Don't judge me. I'm I mean, you got out of 434 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,400 control. I'm not judging you. 435 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:52,240 I'm talking about the actions we just saw say Amen anyway. 436 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:58,560 All right, let me go on. So these are ministering spirits 437 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:03,360 sent out to render service for the sake of those who will 438 00:28:03,360 --> 00:28:06,040 inherit salvation. Praise the Lord. 439 00:28:06,360 --> 00:28:08,880 All right, what's it say in Psalms 91? 440 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,760 We know Psalms 91, right? Supposed to pray over Psalms 91. 441 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,320 I almost did the whole 91 Psalms. 442 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,880 I almost did a Pastor Marcy. Let's just read them up. 443 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,880 Let's read the whole thing. But I surmised I would get into 444 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:23,240 some things revelational wise and they would just make the 445 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,880 service longer. Although I did sit in the 446 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:31,320 longest service I ever set in yesterday, last night, and it 447 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:35,720 was five hours. Five Started at 7, ended at 448 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,000 midnight. It took me 3 hours to get home. 449 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:43,120 Oh yeah, nice. And they provided child care. 450 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:50,960 Yeah, 12115 hundred people were there the whole time. 451 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,160 I was like, impressed. I'm serious. 452 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:59,680 I was like this. This pastor has conditioned the 453 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:05,400 people really to wait on the Lord. 454 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:12,200 Now why do I say that? Because if you want to flow the 455 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,600 spirit, you're going to have to sometimes wait for it. 456 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:21,880 And the Holy Spirit doesn't say, oh, I got to get down to Anchor 457 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:23,600 Bay Church. It's almost 12:30. 458 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:35,320 The Holy Spirit doesn't do that. This is why the Holy Spirit's in 459 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:39,080 not in a lot of churches because they can't be there on their 460 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:45,640 time because the Spirit doesn't follow man. 461 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:51,040 The Spirit is what is who we're supposed to follow. 462 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:53,280 Amen. Now, I'm not going to tell you 463 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,080 we're going to start doing 5 hour services. 464 00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:59,240 I'm not saying that at all. But I talked to this man and she 465 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:03,000 said, pastor, people are always saying we're praying for revival 466 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,080 and I want to look at him and say shut up. 467 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:11,080 Yeah, because they don't know what they're praying for, said. 468 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:16,360 Revival's ugly, chaotic. It's not on your time frame. 469 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,480 I tell pastors you want revival and you ready for somebody to 470 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,760 rip a hole through your roof and you're going to be all. 471 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:33,800 Right with that, revival will break certain orders. 472 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,480 Hallelujah. Come on, you want revival, Let 473 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:43,040 me just tell you, we're not dead #1 anyway, and don't need to be 474 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:44,360 revived. But you know, we do want to 475 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:46,880 create an atmosphere that people that want to be revived can come 476 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,640 and actually get fired up. Hallelujah. 477 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,680 Because I'm telling you, they're looking for the supernatural. 478 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:54,760 They want the move of the spirit. 479 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:59,240 And we cannot put him in a time box 'cause he doesn't live 480 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:04,040 there. Hallelujah. 481 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,480 Amen. So. 482 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,880 Three AMI roll in and here I am tonight. 483 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,840 Glory to glory to God. God's good. 484 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,240 Amen. I saw kids walking out at 485 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,720 midnight from the children and we're like they're going to 486 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,520 school tomorrow. Or maybe not, I don't know. 487 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,640 Maybe they're maybe their stuff's done well. 488 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,000 I mean, it's the last day for us. 489 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:30,520 It may not have been. They may have gone to school. 490 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:34,680 All right, verse 9 Psalms 91 verse 9 through 12 for you have 491 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:39,440 made the Lord my refuge, even the most high your dwelling 492 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:46,560 place. Interesting. 493 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:53,360 I just heard the Lord say tell them I'm coming in the spirit 494 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:56,760 because I am perfecting my bride. 495 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:01,440 I am coming back for the church without spot or wrinkle, and 496 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:06,040 those who want to be in my presence will be because that's 497 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,000 who will only be with me in eternity anyway. 498 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:13,960 Those moves are intentional to separate the sheep from the 499 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:23,240 goat, Hallelujah. So you need to determine you're 500 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:28,880 going to be a sheep and not a goat, Hallelujah. 501 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,720 Amen. Because man, in the last, the 502 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,560 last days, I believe the sheep are going to be so hungry. 503 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,080 Like, man, I got to get the service. 504 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,040 I, there's so much chaos. I got to I need to be among my 505 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,200 brethren. I need they're going to be 506 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:43,800 pastor. Let's do more service. 507 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:45,560 Let's get together. We don't have time to be 508 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,280 watching movies on the week because man, people are falling 509 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,160 left and right. Demonic spirits are happening. 510 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,080 I mean, things are going on. We got to stay tight. 511 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,640 See, you got to understand in certain countries right now, 512 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:58,040 they have to actually have those kinds of existence because of 513 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,520 the oppression that's happening in those countries. 514 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:05,080 But we've become so comfortable here, but the Lord don't care 515 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:11,360 about our nation and our system. He only cares about his Kingdom. 516 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:15,920 Amen. Hallelujah. 517 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:18,240 Now there's going to be a lot of people say, well, you're not 518 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,720 going to grow a church that way. It will grow his church that. 519 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,360 Way we will grow his church that way. 520 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:27,280 And man, his church is powerful. You don't have to have a lot of 521 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,480 numbers, although it can have numbers. 522 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,760 All right. Four, verse 9. 523 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:37,160 Thank you, Lord, you have made the Lord my refuge, even the 524 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:41,720 Most High, your dwelling place. No evil say, no evil will befall 525 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,080 me, nor will any plague come near your tent. 526 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:52,160 Why? Verse 11, four, Why will these 527 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:55,480 things happen? First of all, you have made the 528 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:59,360 Lord your refuge. I mean, there's, there's some 529 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:03,920 qualifications in this thing. This is not just covenant, 530 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:07,560 right? You have a right based upon 531 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:12,920 covenant, but you still have to be in a qualifying position, 532 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:19,639 meaning you're not hanging out in the devil's playground and 533 00:34:19,639 --> 00:34:24,960 expecting the angels to be with you in those environments 534 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:28,560 because you're willfully entertaining and hanging out 535 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:32,320 with them. OK, so no evil will fall, you 536 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:34,280 know, nor will any play come near your tent. 537 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:40,480 For he will keep give his angels what charge concerning you to 538 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:45,159 guard you in all your ways. They will bear you up in their 539 00:34:45,159 --> 00:34:49,520 hands that you do not strike your foot against the stone. 540 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:53,120 And let me tell you something, the devil knows that that's a 541 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:58,360 true statement. The devil knows that those two 542 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:02,640 verses are a true statement. So much so he used those 543 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:06,040 scriptures with Jesus in the temptation. 544 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:11,440 When Jesus started saying it is written, he said I know some 545 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,560 things from. From from your prophets, I know 546 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,320 some things from that that God has said to them. 547 00:35:17,720 --> 00:35:19,480 So let me take some things they've said. 548 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,640 Because he loves to know what God says, so he can pervert. 549 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:27,720 It manipulate it, turn it so that it takes it out of context, 550 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,520 and then you begin to use the scripture for your own 551 00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:35,400 advantage. And that's what he wanted Jesus 552 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:37,320 to do. Well, use this scripture to your 553 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:40,200 own advantage. Throw yourself off. 554 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,960 That's why Jesus, it is also written, You shall not test the 555 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:49,960 Lord thy God. Are you hearing me? 556 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,880 Amen. But you said he'll give charge 557 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:59,480 of his angels concerning you. He'll give what charge of his 558 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:04,440 angels concerning you. So angels are there again to 559 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,880 take. Care of us, minister to us, that 560 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:13,840 is to render services to us. So that in everything that we're 561 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,560 doing, they are there to help. In essence, we could say it this 562 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,680 way. The angels are our Secret 563 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:27,080 Service. Now, when the president of the 564 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:33,600 United States is going somewhere, that is a lot of 565 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:38,160 money. That is not like you. 566 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:42,240 You run into Walmart. When the president's going 567 00:36:42,240 --> 00:36:46,560 somewhere, especially if he's staying somewhere for quite some 568 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:52,800 time, that means there is a team of Secret Service that goes 569 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:56,040 ahead of the president. If he's staying in a particular 570 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,120 hotel, they will be there days ahead. 571 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:02,440 They will go through that hotel, they'll go through every room. 572 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,880 They will examine everything. They will make sure nothing's in 573 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:12,040 there that would so no harm would befall the president. 574 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,040 They'll camp out. If he's going to bring his 575 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,880 motorcade, they will have ran the route, they will have 576 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:21,920 cleared the streets. They will move things around. 577 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:25,120 Are you hearing me? This is what the Secret Service 578 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:28,000 does. Well, we have angels that do 579 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,800 these things. That's what they do. 580 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,920 And here's the thing, you need to know where you're going and 581 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:39,480 then you need to send them. Are you hearing me? 582 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:41,120 Now? There are some things they're 583 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:46,440 doing on their own, but they, if you'll get involved with them 584 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:50,280 and we'll talk about it more probably next week is that they 585 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:51,520 will. They will. 586 00:37:51,720 --> 00:37:54,400 They're waiting for the voice of the King to give them a. 587 00:37:54,400 --> 00:38:08,240 Command, are you hearing me? Can I jump ahead just for the 588 00:38:08,240 --> 00:38:10,120 sake of jumping ahead with a thought? 589 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:16,160 There's a great indication that angels have a part of the 590 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:26,160 weather system when it comes to winds blowing in scripture that 591 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:30,160 the Lord can use them to change weathering patterns. 592 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:36,880 Hallelujah. OK, when I saw this I began to 593 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:41,160 do this when I fly. Ministers, Spirits, I want you 594 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:45,080 to go ahead of this plane and I thank you that we'll have no 595 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:55,840 rough air. And to date I have had very 596 00:38:55,840 --> 00:39:00,800 little turbulence. And if something does happen, I 597 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,680 usually invoke this word immediately in the name of 598 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:06,600 Jesus. Peace be still because I've 599 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:08,760 already given charge over this plane for the sake of the gospel 600 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:12,600 of the Kingdom. I just commandeered the whole 601 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:16,680 vessel because I am an ambassador for the King and this 602 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:20,800 is the mode of transportation by which I am doing king business. 603 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:27,160 So now I I, I invoke and I'm going to show you something here 604 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,960 in a minute that shows that invoke protection over the whole 605 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:37,800 thing. But I send them. 606 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:43,200 And since I've done that, I could probably count on one hand 607 00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:49,200 some disturbances, but they did not last more than 5 minutes. 608 00:39:54,240 --> 00:39:58,800 Did not. And that is not coincidence by 609 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:03,200 faith, because I know they do work. 610 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:06,560 I mean, God loves you way more than you think. 611 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:12,000 He has empowered us more than you even really know. 612 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:14,880 Are you hearing me? So he's given charge of his 613 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:18,720 angels concerning us. God cares so much about us in 614 00:40:18,720 --> 00:40:22,320 the earth that he gave us Secret Service. 615 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:24,960 What's it say in Psalms 37? Seven? 616 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:27,240 Hallelujah. Says the Angel. 617 00:40:27,240 --> 00:40:33,840 Of the Lord encamps around those who and. 618 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:40,200 And and rescues them. Wow. 619 00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:43,640 So the Angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him. 620 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:48,440 Now notice does angels of the Lord encamp around anybody? 621 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:55,840 Who do they encamp around? So it would be really good for 622 00:40:55,840 --> 00:41:03,040 you to have a healthy diet of the fear of the Lord, of 623 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:08,960 reverential honor, awe of our King that we want to represent 624 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:13,880 him at the highest level. And when you fear him, then he, 625 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:17,600 his angels encamp around you and you know what they'll do? 626 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:22,720 They will rescue you. I said they'll rescue you. 627 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:27,360 Hallelujah, glory to his name. So let's talk about some of the 628 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:28,600 protection. We're going to see some things 629 00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:31,360 here in the Bible. I'm primarily I'm, you know, 630 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,280 I've been kind of working some of them. 631 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:36,200 I'm working in the New Testament just because you need to 632 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:41,680 understand that although we are born again, we have the Spirit 633 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:43,560 of God within us, bearing witness with our spirit with 634 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:45,080 children of God. And then we have the Holy 635 00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:46,320 Spirit, because you have. Need. 636 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,240 You have need for the Holy Spirit to come upon you. 637 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:52,240 If you weren't here Sunday. You need to listen to that 638 00:41:52,240 --> 00:41:53,880 message when it comes out tomorrow. 639 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:57,600 You have need OK to be baptized in the Holy Ghost when the Holy 640 00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:01,040 Spirit comes upon you. And that is our Direct Line to 641 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:03,840 God. It is the number one way God is 642 00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:08,360 communicating to us by His Spirit, to our spirit in our 643 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:11,200 inner man. It will be a still small voice. 644 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,200 And what will it sound like? It will sound like Scripture. 645 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:16,440 That's why you need to know the Word. 646 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,840 Now what do I mean by that? It will always be in line with 647 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:21,480 scripture. He would never give you 648 00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:23,840 something that would be outside of it. 649 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:25,840 That doesn't mean he's quoting scripture. 650 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:27,680 I'm just saying when he says something to. 651 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:30,800 You you know that it's in context, scripturally. 652 00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:34,560 Case in point, a guy could, you know, be in this position where 653 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:35,920 it's not good for man to be alone. 654 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:38,240 Lord, I know you're going to bring a wife to me and then 655 00:42:38,240 --> 00:42:40,880 there's someone that comes along and the Lord, you know, gives 656 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,000 you an impression. This is going to be your spouse. 657 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:46,160 Now that's only right if he's told that other person and they 658 00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:49,560 agreed that it's never only one sided conversation. 659 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:53,080 Are you hearing me 'cause you cannot manipulate someone to be 660 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,360 your spouse Just 'cause you said thus saith the Lord? 661 00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:57,360 If it's really thus, saith the Lord, then let the guy talk. 662 00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:01,040 To him, don't you get involved? Are you hearing me? 663 00:43:01,240 --> 00:43:03,120 Let me say, let me tell you what he wouldn't say. 664 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:07,160 You know, I want you to, I want you to marry this person who's 665 00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:09,480 already married to this person and see if they can get a 666 00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:11,600 divorce. He would never say that. 667 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:17,400 So you're less than or coveting another man's wife and you're 668 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:19,680 act like the Lord's telling you that they're going to be yours. 669 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:23,440 No. OK, so there's a case in point. 670 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,280 All right, go ahead and steal that. 671 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:30,000 You deserve it anyway because you know you know you've been 672 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:31,440 taking advantage of your whole life. 673 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:32,920 The Spirit of God would never say that. 674 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:38,240 Are you hearing me OK? So he'll speak that way. 675 00:43:38,240 --> 00:43:45,800 But in this new covenant, angels still converse with those that 676 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:50,760 are actually believers full of the Holy Ghost, and he and 677 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:56,160 angels can converse with the lost still in this dispensation. 678 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:58,120 So let's talk about his protection. 679 00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:00,760 Look at this in Acts Chapter 5. Acts chapter 5. 680 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:02,880 We'll see this. These are duties beyond the 681 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:06,080 clouds, OK, 'cause there are duties that they're doing in the 682 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:10,480 clouds, are in the realm of heaven, okay, but there are 683 00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:12,520 duties they do here on the earth. 684 00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:15,680 And it says, but the high priest rose up along with all his 685 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:20,160 associates, that is the sect of the Sadducees, and they were 686 00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:24,200 filled with jealousy. They laid hands on The Who 687 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:30,600 Apostles, all of them on the apostles and put them in a what? 688 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:34,760 Public jail. So everybody knows the apostles 689 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:39,240 went to jail that day. So all the naysayers are like, 690 00:44:39,240 --> 00:44:41,560 see, I told you now I'm telling you. 691 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:45,120 If it was today, it would be all over social media. 692 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:50,760 Pastor, Pastor Earl's in jail. Well, I'm only in jail because 693 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:56,200 the Sadducees are jealous because they are sad. 694 00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:02,640 Right. During religious people are sad, 695 00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:08,400 you see, OK, but during the night, but during the night? 696 00:45:08,720 --> 00:45:11,800 So they're in public jail, right? 697 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:15,680 See, here's the problem. We think, we think no challenge 698 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:17,720 comes if they'll always protect us. 699 00:45:17,720 --> 00:45:21,680 But you understand, we have Secret Service 'cause sometimes 700 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:26,400 the Lord likes to show off. Now I say that in a positive 701 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:27,960 way. What do I mean by that? 702 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:34,680 Is God will let his enemy know. You can't overcome me. 703 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:38,240 You cannot put my people in such a position that I cannot take 704 00:45:38,240 --> 00:45:42,280 care of this period. So they get thrown in jail, 705 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:44,680 right? And said during the night, what 706 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:49,680 happens? An Angel of the Lord open the 707 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:54,920 gates of the prison, taking them outside. 708 00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:59,720 He said So the Angel talks to them and says to all the 709 00:45:59,720 --> 00:46:02,120 disciples, which at this point is going to be 12 because 710 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:07,480 they've replaced Judas and says, now go stand and speak to the 711 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:10,160 people in the temple. The whole message of this life. 712 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:13,520 In essence, I'm breaking you out of jail. 713 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:17,800 They, they, they forget about post and bail. 714 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:23,280 I mean, this is jailbreak, you understand, this is where God 715 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:32,240 was with that government system broke them out of jail and then 716 00:46:32,240 --> 00:46:34,960 they find they come to see them the next day, they can't find 717 00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:36,080 them. Then they come to find out they 718 00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:40,080 in church preaching. Guess what they didn't do? 719 00:46:40,240 --> 00:46:44,960 Run out of town, run for their lives. 720 00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:53,680 But the Delta team, you know, the Navy Seals of God, showed up 721 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:57,000 and broke them out. And really, they just sent one. 722 00:46:57,640 --> 00:47:04,360 Yeah, go get them. Acts Chapter 12 versus 6 through 723 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:08,760 10 on the On the very night when hair was about to bring forward, 724 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:12,120 Peter was sleeping between two soldiers bound with two chains, 725 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:15,800 and guards in front of the door were watching over the prison. 726 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:19,560 Now you know why they change him like this. 727 00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:24,640 This is why we need to read Bible context in the 5th 728 00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:27,200 chapter. Previously they have arrested 729 00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:30,720 Peter and the other 11 and they had a jailbreak. 730 00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:34,200 This time they're like you they going we going to chain them to 731 00:47:34,240 --> 00:47:39,440 you. Ain't nobody getting out. 732 00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:42,040 This is called heightened security. 733 00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:46,560 So Peter went from the county jail in the maximum security 734 00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:54,080 technically on death row. Are you hearing me? 735 00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:58,640 I mean, that's going from Saint Johns County over to Rayford on 736 00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:04,320 death row. Now we putting this boy on 737 00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:12,040 solitary confinement lockdown with with one of those guys 738 00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:15,880 guards, you know, prison guards chained to demand. 739 00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:21,840 All right, And behold, and the guards were in front of the 740 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:23,120 door, were watching over the prison. 741 00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:24,880 So he's bound between two soldiers. 742 00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:27,360 And then another guy is standing outside the door. 743 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:32,640 And behold, an Angel of the Lord suddenly appeared and a light 744 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:35,920 shone in the cell. My Mama. 745 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:39,400 And he struck Peter's side and woke him up saying, get up 746 00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:41,880 quickly. It's not like Peter has not 747 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:50,600 experienced an Angel jailbreak before, but he is so at peace 748 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:55,000 and has gone off into La La land sleeping that he doesn't even 749 00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:59,840 realize that this is a event. Could it be? 750 00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:02,680 Which makes sense then why Peter might have thought he was 751 00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:08,040 dreaming about an something that happened, you know, earlier? 752 00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:11,960 And the Angel said to him, gird yourself, put on your sandals. 753 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:13,760 And so. And he did so and said to him, 754 00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:15,560 wrap your cloak around you and follow me. 755 00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:20,400 And he went out and continue to follow and he did not know that 756 00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:23,080 he was being what was being done by the Angel was real, but 757 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:27,040 thought he was seeing a vision. And when he had passed the 1st 758 00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:30,600 and 2nd guard. So we've gotten out from between 759 00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:34,000 two guards past the first one we've announced to the 4th one. 760 00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:36,760 You understand we're 4 guards out. 761 00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:39,400 They came to the iron gate that leads into the city, which 762 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:47,160 opened from the for them by itself, this is pretty amazing 763 00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:50,880 stuff. I mean, our angels do not have 764 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:56,280 to blow doors open. They don't have to pick locks. 765 00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:05,120 And they went out and went along one street and immediately the 766 00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:07,000 Angel departed from him. Then obviously at that point, 767 00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:11,000 Peter realizes, man, he broke me out again. 768 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:17,960 Wow. You know, has anybody else been 769 00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:19,720 broke out of jail by an Angel twice? 770 00:50:19,720 --> 00:50:22,040 I think I nobody has. I'm the guy, right? 771 00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:23,160 And then he goes knocking on the door. 772 00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:26,480 Hey, let me in, let me in. Cause technically I'm what they 773 00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:34,280 call a fugitive. Right, so here's here is Lord's 774 00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:35,880 protection. Now if we go back to the old 775 00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:38,560 covenant, we can see this as well multiple, I mean, I'm just 776 00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:40,080 giving you 2 examples of the new covenant. 777 00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:43,240 But again, member Elijah. And his servant says, man, we 778 00:50:43,240 --> 00:50:44,760 got some people got some trouble out here. 779 00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:46,440 They surround the city. You know what we going to do? 780 00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:48,280 He said, Lord, open his eyes, man. 781 00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:50,160 He said, man, there's more for us than there are for them. 782 00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:53,840 Why 'cause a special for I mean, there was a whole detachment of 783 00:50:53,840 --> 00:51:00,120 God's army that has shown up in on the mountains and they're all 784 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:02,720 encamped and they have their weapons, they have their 785 00:51:02,720 --> 00:51:05,960 Chariots, they're ready. For war, they're like, I dare 786 00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:11,280 them to come get you. Amen. 787 00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:17,000 I dare them to come get you. I dare them. 788 00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:20,560 All right. Praise the Lord. 789 00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:26,880 OK, What else will angels do? They bring provision. 790 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:31,520 They can bring provision. Now I'm going to start over here 791 00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:34,160 in the Old Testament because we've got to lay some groundwork 792 00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:39,480 in order to determine so that we can see is highly plausible. 793 00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:41,680 This has happened in the New Testament, although it doesn't 794 00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:44,120 directly say it. First Kings chapter 19 verses 795 00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:46,920 one through 8 says Now Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had 796 00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:49,920 done, and how he had killed all the prophets with a sword. 797 00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:54,680 Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, So may the gods 798 00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:57,240 do to me, and even more if I do not make your life as the life 799 00:51:57,240 --> 00:52:00,320 of one of them by tomorrow. About this time, because you 800 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:01,520 know he killed all the prophets of Bell. 801 00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:05,360 And he was afraid, and arose and ran for for his life, and came 802 00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:09,080 to Beersheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his servants 803 00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:11,800 there. But he was beside himself when 804 00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,400 he went a day's journey into the wilderness was. 805 00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:17,600 But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and 806 00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:19,400 came and sat down under juniper tree. 807 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:22,160 And he requested for himself that he might die, and said it 808 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:25,160 is enough now, Oh Lord, take my life, for I am not better than 809 00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,120 my father's. He laid down and slept under a 810 00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:30,200 juniper tree, and behold there was an Angel touching him. 811 00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:34,600 And he said, arise, eat. Now he sits down at the tree, 812 00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:37,680 there's no food, goes to sleep. The Angel wakes him up and says, 813 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:39,960 now eat Well, who brought him the food? 814 00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:47,600 Then he looked, and behold, there was at his head a bread 815 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:51,080 cake baked on hot stones, and a jar of water. 816 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:52,800 So he ate and drank and laid down again. 817 00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:55,240 The Angel Lord came again a second time, touched him, and 818 00:52:55,240 --> 00:52:57,800 said, Arise, eat, because the journey is too great for you. 819 00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,200 And he rose and ate and drank so, which means he fed him 820 00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:02,520 again. And he went in the strength of 821 00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:05,880 that food, 40 days and 40 nights to the mountain of God. 822 00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:13,920 So an Angel. Basically was an Uber driver for 823 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:22,400 the Lord, right? Showed up with food. 824 00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:27,080 Now, maybe you didn't realize this, but where do you think 825 00:53:27,080 --> 00:53:31,360 manna came from? Where did manna come from? 826 00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:36,080 Yeah, it came from heaven. Look at Psalm 78, verse 23. 827 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:40,320 Look at this Psalm 78 verse 20. Yet he commanded the clouds 828 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:41,840 above and opened the doors of heaven. 829 00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:45,920 He rained down manna upon them to eat and gave them food from 830 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:47,800 heaven. Man did eat what? 831 00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:55,800 The bread of angels. So with Elijah, the Angel 832 00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:59,440 brought the food to him. Indication is based upon manna 833 00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:03,240 that rained down. Basically, angels could have in 834 00:54:03,240 --> 00:54:08,440 the spirit not seen, could have come down like waiters 'cause 835 00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:11,840 number, you know, there was so much mana all over the place. 836 00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:17,560 Well, you understand there is a myriad of angels that the King 837 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:20,480 of Kings could have said, all right, here, get the bread. 838 00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:24,720 Come on now, get the bread. It's time to go serve the people 839 00:54:24,720 --> 00:54:27,880 this morning, right. I want you to all go down there 840 00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:30,360 and lay it on the table, which happened to be the floor. 841 00:54:32,240 --> 00:54:38,760 And here they are district. You don't see it because they're 842 00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:43,360 here to render service for us. Well, if angels can bring food, 843 00:54:43,640 --> 00:54:45,920 here's Jesus in Matthew chapter four. 844 00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:50,600 He is hungry for 40 days being tempted of the devil. 845 00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:53,880 In fact, the scripture says he was very hungry. 846 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:56,600 Then in verse 11 said then the devil left him and behold, 847 00:54:56,600 --> 00:54:59,840 angels came and began to what ministered him. 848 00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:02,800 That word minister was to provide for his need. 849 00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:06,000 What do you think Jesus's immediate need was after the 850 00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:13,400 temptation? So it's put a good indication 851 00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:16,800 that the angels didn't just minister to Jesus by giving him 852 00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:20,280 a foot massage. I'm not saying they gave him a 853 00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:24,560 foot massage, I'm just saying most likely they brought him a 854 00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:33,160 substance because the King of Kings, just like us, are not 855 00:55:33,160 --> 00:55:37,680 limited even to the resources that are here in the earth. 856 00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:45,520 Now, again, we got to get this in our mind and that is this. 857 00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:50,800 There are physically tangible things in heaven. 858 00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:56,000 Again, I was thinking about this today because I feel like it's 859 00:55:56,000 --> 00:56:00,880 just like, wow. So the Lord's coming with his 860 00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:05,760 army, the Saints, and he's going to be riding a White Horse. 861 00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:07,960 Now John saw that in the Lord's Day. 862 00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:12,160 Well, you know, in my mind, I'm like, man, I mean, with all the 863 00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:16,600 technology, is he really going to be on a thoroughbred? 864 00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:19,960 I mean, or is this a steel horse? 865 00:56:21,720 --> 00:56:23,880 I mean our hovercraft type thing that was white. 866 00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:26,360 And it just reminded John of a horse that we all come back in 867 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:30,280 some like flying saucer looking. Things I'm not trying to say we 868 00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:33,600 are. I just find it interesting with 869 00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:37,040 all the technology, he going to show up with a horse. 870 00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:41,400 And if it is a literal horse, that means it literally is in 871 00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:48,760 heaven, alive, breathing. Well, if there's horses up there 872 00:56:50,240 --> 00:56:53,680 and there's the marriage supper of the lamb up there, what are 873 00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:55,320 we going to eat? Air. 874 00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:58,080 Have you ever seen the movie? Hook with? 875 00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:02,320 What was that guy's name? Robin Williams, Remember, they 876 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:04,440 needed him to imagine at the table and everybody's jumping 877 00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:06,720 out, eating. He's like, I'm starving to 878 00:57:06,720 --> 00:57:08,560 death, right? I'd love that one. 879 00:57:08,720 --> 00:57:11,560 That was a great little illustration there, right? 880 00:57:11,680 --> 00:57:14,120 Because you had to have, it's like faith, like a child man. 881 00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:16,800 And there he is. And he's like that. 882 00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:19,280 He goes and then all of a sudden they're like. 883 00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:22,680 You're doing it, Peter. You're doing it right. 884 00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:24,680 And then all of a sudden, he saw all the food. 885 00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:28,280 It was there the whole time. He just had to bring it from the 886 00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:30,320 unseen into the. Oh y'all over here? 887 00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:34,920 OK, and again, the Lord can bring, we are literally not 888 00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:41,280 limited to actual earth things because angels can bring things 889 00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:48,320 from all right, last one is this instruction for tonight talking 890 00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:51,400 about angels because they have duties beyond the cloud. 891 00:57:52,640 --> 00:57:54,160 Are you hearing me now? Again, I'm going to give you 892 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:57,760 some New Testament ones. We definitely can show tons of 893 00:57:57,760 --> 00:58:01,280 these in the Old Testament, but he does this even in the New 894 00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:03,080 Testament. And I'm going to start with Acts 895 00:58:03,080 --> 00:58:09,120 27. In Acts 27, verse 21 to 25, Paul 896 00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:11,240 is on a boat. He does not want to be on this 897 00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:14,800 boat, but he has no choice but to be on the boat because he's 898 00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:16,920 not free. He's actually a prisoner. 899 00:58:17,400 --> 00:58:20,960 As a result of being a prisoner, although he has warned them on 900 00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:23,400 the shore. So again God will give charge of 901 00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:29,120 his angels what to to to protect you so that no harm will befall 902 00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:31,080 you. However you may be in 903 00:58:31,080 --> 00:58:34,840 circumstances of life that you can't dictate your actions 904 00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:39,960 because someone else is, but yet even in that God will can still 905 00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:43,120 protect you, although it may take you into some places that 906 00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:49,280 are perceivably harmful. Now they harmful, but yet 907 00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:51,360 because of your protection, you'll be at overcome. 908 00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:55,440 So Paul on the shore says, gentlemen, I perceive that if we 909 00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:57,920 get in this boat, we're going to have a problem. 910 00:58:58,320 --> 00:59:01,000 There's going to be a storm. We're going to run into the 911 00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:03,480 storm. It's going to cost us, you know, 912 00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:07,960 our cargo, the ship and possibly our lives, guys. 913 00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:10,200 But they're like, we're not listening to you. 914 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:12,680 You're not the expert. We're going with the experts. 915 00:59:12,680 --> 00:59:15,400 Throw him on the boat. The minute he gets on the boat, 916 00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:20,320 he's like Lord, and he's talking to the Lord because he knows I 917 00:59:20,320 --> 00:59:25,520 warned him. Now, I would maybe conclude that 918 00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:28,200 Paul was like, I warned him, Lord, protect me. 919 00:59:28,280 --> 00:59:31,000 The storm comes. He's like man, man. 920 00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:35,320 Here it is. Can't get the storm to stop. 921 00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:37,440 The Lord actually warned me. This is why he can't say peace 922 00:59:37,440 --> 00:59:41,000 be still, because the Lord's already warned him it's coming 923 00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:43,120 and they didn't heed, so they're going to get the storm. 924 00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:47,440 There would be no peace be still or a necessity of peace be still 925 00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:49,080 if they would have just listened on the shore. 926 00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:53,000 So sometimes you get some storms of life because you didn't do 927 00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:54,440 what you need to do on the shore. 928 00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:57,120 Now that's the Holy Ghost talking to you right now. 929 00:59:57,120 --> 01:00:00,440 That's just not my preaching. But sometimes we're in storms of 930 01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:04,920 life you cannot get settled. Because he told you on the shore 931 01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:06,320 not to get there in the 1st place. 932 01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:08,440 Now he will deliver you out of the storm. 933 01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:10,480 But you're not going to be able to say peace be still. 934 01:00:10,480 --> 01:00:12,680 You're going to have to ride the storm and find the answer 935 01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:17,040 through the. Storm all right, with that being 936 01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:21,840 said, here we go. He's in this moment and he says 937 01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:23,680 this. And when he had gone a long time 938 01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:26,400 without food, Paul stood in the midst in their midst and said, I 939 01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:28,320 love this. This like one of my awesome 940 01:00:28,560 --> 01:00:31,800 favorite verses men. You ought to have followed my 941 01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:35,840 advice and not have set sail from Crete and incurred this 942 01:00:35,840 --> 01:00:40,560 damage and loss. Yet now I urge you to keep up 943 01:00:40,560 --> 01:00:43,000 your curse. Now this is Paul who has wrote, 944 01:00:43,040 --> 01:00:45,480 I pray in the Spirit more than you all. 945 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:51,480 He's born again, filled with the Holy Ghost, wrote over half of 946 01:00:51,480 --> 01:00:55,880 the New Testament, hears the Spirit of God very clearly and 947 01:00:55,880 --> 01:00:59,640 says this, OK, I urge you to keep up your curse for there 948 01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:04,080 will be no loss of life among you, but only the ship for this 949 01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:07,240 very night. What he didn't say the Holy 950 01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:12,000 Ghost, although he has the Holy Ghost. 951 01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:15,840 He had the Holy Ghost give him the inward witness on the shore, 952 01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:20,120 not to get in the boat. But now an Angel delivers the 953 01:01:20,120 --> 01:01:25,960 message to the new covenant man, and says to him to whom I 954 01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:29,560 belong, the Angel of God, to whom I belong and whom I served, 955 01:01:29,560 --> 01:01:31,760 stood before me. Which means he manifested 956 01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:37,320 himself and nobody else saw him. And what did he say to Paul? 957 01:01:37,320 --> 01:01:40,080 Do not be afraid, which these are the two things Paul was 958 01:01:40,080 --> 01:01:41,800 praying. The first thing Paul was praying 959 01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:45,240 is he was reminding God of his word that the Lord said to him, 960 01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:48,800 you would stand before Caesar. And he's telling him, how can I 961 01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:52,880 die in this storm and fulfill your word that you said I would 962 01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:56,520 stand before Caesar. So you have to save my life. 963 01:01:58,120 --> 01:02:00,000 It wasn't begging him to save his life. 964 01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:05,040 He's telling him you have to keep your word, O King, and the 965 01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:08,800 Lord has no problem when you state your case and bring his 966 01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:11,920 word back to him. That is not offensive. 967 01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:16,640 He wants you to say I have a legal right under your authority 968 01:02:16,760 --> 01:02:20,280 for this word to come to pass. You're the king, and your word 969 01:02:20,280 --> 01:02:22,880 never returns unto you, Boyd. It's always accomplished. 970 01:02:23,040 --> 01:02:25,200 And you said I would stand before Caesar. 971 01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:27,360 Cannot do it if I die out here in the deep. 972 01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:31,200 So he says you must stand before Caesar. 973 01:02:31,920 --> 01:02:35,040 So he answered that one. Secondly, behold, God has what 974 01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:38,480 granted, which means he was saying now, Lord, I told him on 975 01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:43,000 the shore not to get here and all these people, which was 276 976 01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:47,880 people total. This is why I can get into a 977 01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:53,160 plane and begin to make a request from the King for the 978 01:02:53,160 --> 01:02:55,920 safety of everyone in the vessel I'm traveling. 979 01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:02,240 He has granted you all those who are sailing with you. 980 01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:06,400 Therefore verse 25. Keep up your courage men, For I 981 01:03:06,400 --> 01:03:10,800 believe he's not asking them to believe, He said. 982 01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:15,160 For I believe God that it will what turn out exactly as I have 983 01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:17,000 been. Who told him? 984 01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:21,520 The Angel gave him instructions. I said. 985 01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:23,000 The angels gave him instructions. 986 01:03:23,640 --> 01:03:27,920 Are you hearing me? So if the King of Glory needs 987 01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:32,960 you to have an encounter with one of His beings, His angels, 988 01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:36,000 that He's given charge concerning you so that you are 989 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:40,400 crystal clear in the steps than the things you need to know and 990 01:03:40,400 --> 01:03:45,600 do, He will do that. You do not need an Angel to give 991 01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:48,480 you instruction every time. You should not seek angels to 992 01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:51,240 give you instruction every time. He was actually not seeking an 993 01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:54,320 Angel to get instruction. He was seeking the Lord and the 994 01:03:54,320 --> 01:03:57,240 Lord. Chose to send an Angel that he 995 01:03:57,240 --> 01:04:02,120 saw and he knew it was one. Are you hearing me OK? 996 01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:06,280 Acts chapter 10 is the last one tonight as an example, and I 997 01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:09,320 want to close with this one because this is really powerful, 998 01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:14,440 says now there was a man at Caesarea named Cornelius, a 999 01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:18,120 centurion from what was called the Italian cohort, a devout 1000 01:04:18,120 --> 01:04:21,720 man, one who feared God with all of his household and gave many 1001 01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:24,880 alms to the Jewish people and prayed to God continually. 1002 01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:29,160 About the 9th hour of the day, he clearly saw in a vision an 1003 01:04:29,160 --> 01:04:32,880 Angel of God who had just come in and said to him, Cornelius, 1004 01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:37,600 he's given instruction and fixing his gaze on him and being 1005 01:04:37,600 --> 01:04:39,560 much alarmed, he said, What is it, Lord? 1006 01:04:40,120 --> 01:04:44,880 Now obviously this is not the Lord, this is an Angel, but he 1007 01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:48,760 knows this is a supreme being. This is not of this realm. 1008 01:04:49,240 --> 01:04:53,800 And because Cornelius is not born again, he wants to submit 1009 01:04:53,800 --> 01:04:56,960 to that realm and he recognizes his authority. 1010 01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:01,120 And he says to him, Your prayers and alms have ascended as a 1011 01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:04,880 memorial before God now dispatched some men to Joppa and 1012 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:09,600 sinned for a man named Simon, who has also called Peter. 1013 01:05:09,600 --> 01:05:13,640 He is staying with a Tanner named Simon, whose house is by 1014 01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:16,240 the sea. Now why is he doing this? 1015 01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:25,080 Because the Angel currently in this dispensation prior to the 1016 01:05:25,080 --> 01:05:28,240 catching away of the church cannot. 1017 01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:30,920 Preach. The Gospel. 1018 01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:37,680 So you could never come and say man, someone told me about 1019 01:05:37,760 --> 01:05:39,120 Jesus. It was an Angel. 1020 01:05:39,440 --> 01:05:42,360 An Angel would not tell you that about the death, burial, 1021 01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:45,240 resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is not their assignment. 1022 01:05:45,600 --> 01:05:47,760 But an Angel would tell you someone who can. 1023 01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:55,000 An Angel would tell you someone who can in this current 1024 01:05:55,280 --> 01:05:57,880 dispensation prior to the catching away of the church. 1025 01:05:57,920 --> 01:06:03,240 OK, so with that being said, he does exactly the instruction of 1026 01:06:03,240 --> 01:06:04,920 the Angel. Peter does show up. 1027 01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:08,360 He preaches the gospel. Cornelius is saved. 1028 01:06:08,360 --> 01:06:10,520 Not only is he saved, he's baptized in the Holy Ghost. 1029 01:06:10,520 --> 01:06:12,480 What evidence is speaking in tongues him and his whole 1030 01:06:12,480 --> 01:06:14,360 household. Are you hearing what I'm saying? 1031 01:06:15,120 --> 01:06:21,360 Which tells us this angels desire for those who are seeking 1032 01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:26,840 the Lord to find him. And we'll give instruction to 1033 01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:30,800 you on who carries the message so that you can come into His 1034 01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:35,160 Kingdom. And with that being said, the 1035 01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:37,200 Lord still wants you in the Kingdom today. 1036 01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:38,720 Amen.
